Obituary & Death Notice |
| Mercy Moore "PIONEER MOTHER OF VALLEY TAKEN
Mrs. David E. Moore Died at Home Here Last Saturday
With the passing of Mrs. David E. Moore at her home on Sixth street last Saturday evening following an illness of three months, has removed one more of those sturdy pioneers of this country whose lives have endeared them to all who knew them. Mrs. Moore had been a resident of Chino since 1894 and prior to that had been one of the first settlers of Phillips county, Kansas.
The deceased was born in Preston, Jackson county, Iowa, on July 23, 1849, to Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Banning and was christened Mercy Malora. She was educated in the common schools of Iowa and as a young woman taught school for two years. On March 14, 1871, at the age of 22 years, she was united in marriage to David Elias Moore, who survives her, and to them four children were born, Herbert, who died in infancy; Walter M. Moore of Visalia, Don E. Moore of Chino and Mrs. Alma Moore-Homan of Chino. Also five grandchildren, Dr. Harold Arnold Moore of Los Angeles, Mrs. Alma Hill of Whittier, Herbert Moore of Pomona, Dr. Clifton B. Homan of Monrovia and Mrs. Marjorie Bonner of Los Angeles. She also had two brothers and five sisters, two of whom survive.
Following their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Moore lived on a farm in Iowa until migrating to Kansas in 1873. Here they made their home for 18 years and then came west to California in 1892, settling first in Pomona for a period of two years before coming to Chino.
The First Methodist Episcopal church of Chino was organized in their home and they faithfully maintained this affiliation, attending the services of their faith as long as health permitted. The deceased was also a member of the Sunset club, an organization of elderly women, and she found great joy and comfort in the friendships formed in that membership.
Mrs. Moore enjoyed a very active, helpful happy life and good health until the past few years when her strength began to fail. She was stricken three months ago, taking a turn for the worst about three weeks ago.
Funeral services under the direction of Glenn A. Henry of the Richardson and Henry Funeral Home were conducted Monday afternoon from the Methodist church with Rev. Elmer S. Andersen, pastor of the church, officiating and Rev. H. E. Hooper of Belevedere, former pastor here, assisting.
Two songs were sung by Mrs. Seth Hastings, Mrs. F. A. Payne, Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Solter, with Mrs. Blaine Van Dusen at the pipe organ. Pall bearers were W. H. Delphey, W. J. Tebo, Edwin Rhodes, W. T. Clarke, W. H. Jorden and G. A. Hillman. Interment was in Pomona cemetery." |
