| 16535 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, July 31, 1890 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - South Richland - Died, in Fredericksburg, Virginia, on the 7th inst., Mrs. Polly Maria Dewey Babcock, in the 72nd year of her age. Somewhere between eighty and ninety years ago, a young man named David Dewey came to South Richland, then nearly all a wilderness, and engaged a young carpenter named Worthy Waters to build a "tavern" for him on the corner of the Salt road, four miles from Pulaski. It was a large two story frame building afterwards so well known as Dewey's tavern, and later as Tinker's tavern. Now, much altered and modernized, it is the farm residence of B. E. Champlin. Mr. Dewey married Miss Roxy Holmes, daughter of Rev. Jesseniah Holmes, a Baptist clergyman, who lived where T. R. Atwood does now. To them were born seven children, two sons and five daughters. One of the songs, Harrison, died when a young man. The other son, the well-known J. Nelson Dewey, married Elvira Richards, sister of the late Hiel Richards, grandfather of J. W. Richards, of Pulaski, and lived on the farm now owned by L. J. Hawley, and occupied by J. Barclay. Of the daughters, P. Maria was next to the youngest. She was born in South Richland, February 17, 1819. She was a very noticeable woman, being very large, masculine looking. Her voice was very soft and well-modulated. She possessed more than ordinary intelligence, and was well educated, and a very superior teacher, which occupation she followed for about twelve years. She taught a select school in the schoolhouse near her home, and one in the village of Prattham. Her schools were always well patronized by students from near and far. Somewhere about 1849 she became one of the faculty of the Central New York College, in McGrawville, a manual labor school, with a farm attached. At that time the overseer of the farm was Samuel Babcock. His wife died, leaving him with a large family of children. On August 12, 1851, he was married to Prof. P. Maria Dewey. The ceremony was performed by Rev. John Everingham, (I think) at the residence of her brother, J. Nelson Dewey. A son and daughter of Mr. Babcock, acted in his first groomsman and bridesmaid, and A. S. Richard and Miss Charlotte Dewey as second. The wedding was a very stylish affair for the times. After the ceremony the company crossed the yard to the house occupied by the bride's mother and sister, Marcia, where a sumptuous dinner was served. Several of the company accompanied the newly wedded pair to Sand Bank, the nearest railroad station, where they took the train for Albany and elsewhere. They were gone about a week on their wedding tour and then returned to his home in McGrawville. Miss Dewey was a Methodist of the Methodists; a great worker in revivals and camp meetings. Mr. Babcock was a Baptist, and so after marriage she united with that denomination, of which she was "a consistent and highly esteemed member." In 1869 the removed to Fredericksburg, Virginia, where she died on the 7th inst. Her funeral took place at the Baptist Church in that place. "Her remains were brought to homer, New York, for interment, with the graves of her kindred," says the Oswego Times. There must be some mistake about this, as her kindred are nearly all buried in the South Richland Cemetery, East of B. E. Champlin's. One of her sisters is Mrs. Marcia A. Brown, of Oswego, and another, Mrs. Charlotte D. Wilbur, an authoress of some celebrity. Many of the former pupils of the deceased in Richland remember her well. Perhaps no one has ever lived here to whom the term "good" could be more appropriately applied than to Mrs. P. Maria Dewey-Babcock. | Holmes, Roxie (I44791)

| 16545 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, July 8, 1886 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Died - In Odell, Illinois, June 16, 1886, Mrs. Hannah M. Jenks, aged 84 years, 2 months and 29 days. She was the daughter of Robert and Martha Muzzy, and was born in Dublin, New Hampshire, March 17, 1802. In the spring of 1816 she with her parents, moved into this town and settled two and a half miles north of the village of Pulaski, in 1822 she was married to Asa R. Meacham, a highly esteemed young man and a devoted husband. They soon moved westward and settled in Franklin, Pennsylvania, where they performed the laborers and endured the hardships incident to all settlers in a new and densely timbered country. But in 1831 the sudden and painful death of her husband brought her to the heaviest sorrow and responsibility of her life. Yet she bravely struggled on to support her four young children, with the wilderness around her, and the divine promise (jer. 4_:11) over her. In a few years she married Mr. Obed Jenks, with whom she lived pleasantly until his death in 1850, when she was again left a widow, now with a family of ten children, the youngest of whom was a babe. In 1851 she removed from Pennsylvania to Illinois, where, in Wilton and Odell, she spent the remainder of her life. With motherly devotion and tact she labored to train her children for usefulness here and for eternal blessedness hereafter. Six of these children are now living in five different states, and the mother had the joyful satisfaction of knowing that they were all pleasantly settled and were worthy members of Christian churches. When in the bloom of young womanhood she consecrated herself to Christ and his cause, uniting with the Baptist church in Sandy Creek, and unto the day of her death she honored her profession. She was singularly gentle, patient, cheerful and kind. Decided and strong in her convictions of duty and trust, she was yet eminently charitable in her judgment of others. Her temper and life were uniformly quiet, peaceable and consistent; forgetful of self, she was ever seeking to make those around her happy. She leaves behind her a legacy more precious than silver or gold. Rest, dear, gentle spirit, rest, loving heart, all who intimately knew thee will cherish, Revere and fondly embalm thy memory and virtues. Two brothers alone of the once happy band of twelve children, survive her. | Muzzy, Hannah (I21096)
