Obituary
Mrs. Elizabeth Hawkins Gilmore was born in Pueblo (sic) county, Ohio, October 7, 1819. She moved with her parents to Indiana in 1832 where she remained until she came to Furnas county in 1880. In 1888 she moved to Colorado, where she made her home until May 1900 when she returned to Beaver City to live.

In 1839 she was married to Thomas F. Gilmore, and from this marriage eight children were born, of whom five are living, three daughters and two sons; three in Indiana, one in Iowa, and one in California. September 4, 1855, she was married to J. L. Gilmore, who survives her. From this marriage four children were born, three of them now living, Mrs. Lundy, of Burlington, Colo; Mrs. Thomas, of Greenup, Ill; and Thomas Edgar, of Beaver City. At the early age of 13 she joined the Presbyterian church in Indiana, and when she came to Furnas county she joined the Presbyterian church of Beaver City. But when she went to Colorado, there being no Presbyterian church near her home, she joined the Methodist church, and from that church brought her letter to the Presbyterian church here when she came back to make her home in Beaver City.

For nearly seventy years she had been a member of a christian church, and in her 82nd year has been transferred from the church militant to the church triumphant. This is a mere outline of a life for more than four score years. It cost a great deal of all that can be put into a christian life to pass through those years as she did, in four states and under varied circumstances incident to life in a new country.

The funeral service was held at the house Sunday afternoon, conducted by her pastor, Rev. W. H. Miller, and Rev. A. C. Corbin of the Christian church. She had lived a faithful christian life and in her death was fulfilled the scripture, “Thou shalt come to the grave in a full age like a shock of corn cometh in his season.”.
