Merrill, Mabel (? - 1976)

Some will remember the former Mrs. Mabel Merrill, 86, who lived here some years ago. She died July 26, 1976 in a Minneapolis hospital. She was born and grew to womanhood here and received her education in the Humbird Public School.

She later moved to Minneapolis, where she married Tyler Merrill in September 1929. The couple made their home in Minneapolis, but she came quite often to see her sister, Mrs. Ada Farnsworth, her parents and brother, Carl Wilbur.

Survivors include her husband; a daughter, Mrs. Budd Ledbetter of Minneapolis; a sister, Mrs. Henry (Hazel) Harris of Altoona; and a grandson.

Services were held July 31 in Minneapolis. Burial was made in Fairview Cemetery, Stillwater, MN.
