ELLEN LEATHERS

Times and Gazette

November 23, 1889

Mrs. Ellen Leathers, one of the pioneers of the county died at her residence in this town on Monday last. Mrs. Leathers was the reelect of the late Peter Leathers to whom she was wedded in 1856 and who built and at one time owned two large buildings connected with Frank’s Tannery and used as store houses. She was well known and highly respected by all her acquaintances, a large number of which attended her body to her final resting-place, despite the inclement weather. Her family consists of three sons, Richard, Joseph, and Benjamin, and three daughters Mary, Martha, and Ella, to whom the sympathy of the community is extended. The interment took place yesterday at Union Cemetery where all that was mortal was laid beside the body of the partner of her joys and sorrows.
