- Living with daughter Mary Alice and husband F. Marion Brown
Obit: Hannah Magdeline Ditch was born in Fredericksburg, Maryland, January 11, 1858, and departed this life at Bedford, Iowa, April 26, 1923, age 65 years, 3 months and 15 days. When a small child, she with her parents moved to Chicago and later to Phillipsburg, Kansas. On September 2, 1873, she was united in marriage to August Ernest and in 1876 they came to Taylor County, Iowa, locating on a farm in Jackson Township, and where on August 2, 1906, the husband went to his reward. For six years Mrs. Ernest continued to keep up her home but the children having moved to themselves, she yielded to their solicitations and went to make her home with her daughter, Mrs. J. [ohn] L. Larison. It was here that death found her. Nine children remain to mourn this mother. They are Mrs. J. [ohn] L. Larison [Rose], Mrs. F. [rancis] M. [arion] Brown [Mary Alice], Frank L., Mrs. Roy Spurgeon [Maud], Fred E., Willis C., Herman B., Mrs. Mart Reece [Lula] and Glen E. All with the exception of Frank were permitted to be at the bedside of their mother during her last hours on earth. During the pastorship of Rev. Ware, Mrs. Ernest united with the Presbyterian Church but later after the Forest Grove Church was erected near her home, she was baptized in this faith by the Rev. A. L. Jones. Although of late years on account of ill health she was unable to attend services, she was at all times and places a true, practical Christian, loving home and neighbors and always ready to lend a helping hand in time of need.
Through all her afflictions none ever heard a word of complaint, nothing but patience and a trust that "He who doeth all things well would in His own time call her to rest." With these words, "Thy will, Oh Lord, Be Done," she sank into a quiet sleep from which she never rallied. Funeral services were held at the Forest Grove Church Saturday afternoon in charge of Rev. Fletcher and interment made in the cemetery there. (Bedford Free Press, May 3, 1923)
