OBITUARY: MRS. CRUMP PASSES AWAY.
Was a Pioneer, Coming Across the Plains from Missouri in 1847.
Mrs. Mary J. Crump, aged 56 years, 6 months and 28 days, passed away at her home, at No. 329 Front street, yesterday afternoon, after a lingering illness of dropsy. The deceased was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Pettyjohn, the former deceased and the latter living near this city, and was one of the earliest pioneers. She was born in Holt county, Missouri, on October 10, 1845, and came across the plains to Oregon with her parents in 1847. The family first located in the Waldo hills but later took up a claim on what is now known as Ankeny Bottom. She was married on December 21, 1862, to Mr. W. R. Crump, who preceded her to the unknown realm about 15 years ago, and she has lived in this city continuously since. Of the five children who were born to Mr. and Mrs. Crump only two survive her, Mrs. Ada Sauvie, of San Jose, California and Mrs. Lena Hughes of this city. A mother, one brother and three sisters survive the deceased, as follows: Mrs. Lewis Pettyjohn, mother, Salem; A. D. Pettyjohn, brother, Salem; Mrs. Lizzie Rowland, sister, Gold Hill, Oregon; Cecilia Fidler, Marion county, Oregon, and Mrs. Mellie Yates, San Francisco, California. Funeral servcies were conducted at the home on Front street at 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, by Rev. Geo. C. Ritchey, and the remains were laid to rest in the family plot in City View [sic] cemetery.
