Three Pioneers Die During Past Week
Mrs. Rachael Louisa Brannock
On April 24, 1845 a baby girl was born at Boon, North Carolina. Her parents
died while she was an infant and she was reared by foster parents. In
girlhood she was known as Rachael Louisa Hodge.
The days of her youth were those trying days of the Civil War and she lived in
the torn and bleeding Southland. It was during these trying days of terror
and strife it did not mean comfort and ease to get married. She and her
husband faced the stern problems of life with whatever courage they were able
to muster; but face it they did.
Two children were born to them; Harry, who lived until about 14 years ago, and
Mattie, now Mrs. Mattie Arrendiell who lives in Payette, Idaho.
About 1890, Mrs. Marley was married to Hilary J. Brannock, in Kentucky. They
immediately settled in Bloomington, Indiana, where they lived until 1911 when
they came to Payette. Mr. Brannock died in Payette 13 years ago.
She is survived by her only daughter, Mrs. Mattie Arrendiell, Payette, and one
great-grandchild.
Funeral services were conducted from the Landon Funeral Home on Tuesday
morning at 10:30 with the Rev. S. P. Hagler of Ontario, Oregon, officiating.
Music was furnished by Mrs. Crights, Mrs. Fenwick with Mrs. Springstun
accompanying.
Pallbearers were John Sur, E. W. Equala, Frank Satoris, Mac Cheek, H. D. Moore
and Mr. Freeman.
