• Notes

  http://www.illinoisancestors.org/fulton/Obituaries/ObituariesG_H.html#hoarmary Mary I. Hoar, nee Irwin, was born in Lancaster County, PA, April 14, 1807. She died in the faith of the Gospel in Fulton County, Illinois November 24, 1891. Her parents were Presbyterian. At fourteen years of age she was converted and united with the Methodist Episcopal Church. For seventy years she lived a faithful consistent life, loved and esteemed by all. She was married to Jesse K. Hoar in her twenty-second year. Of this union were born four sons and seven daughters; three sons and six daughters lived to attain manhood and womanhood. The youngest son, Rev. B. A. Hoar, is a member of the Southern Illinois Conference. Sister Hoar lived to see forty-five grand children and twenty-five great grandchildren. She removed in 1844 from her native state to Knox County, Ohio, thence to Fulton County, Illinois, in 1856, thence to Fayette County in 1859. The home of Sister Hoar was always a hospital retreat for the itinerant. Prudent and careful with her neighbors, loving and kind to her family, her life has been a constant benediction. One of her sons said of her, "She never gave unholy council, nor said an unholy word in the presence of her family." The words of the wise man, Proverbs 31, Chapt. 10 - 31 verses are eminently true of this saint of God. She was buried in the cemetery at Cuba, Illinois, November 25. The funeral sermon was preached by the Rev.W. H. Whittock of the Central Illinois Conference. Full years and worn by time and care she was anxious to depart and be with Christ.
