Delta Herald and Times, Delta, Pennsylvania 8 September 1911
MRS. MARGARET HESS
Widow of John M. HESS, late of Lower Chanceford twp., died at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. Samuel A. WISE, near Bryansville, on Friday, Sept. 1, 1911,
aged 84 years, 4 months, 12 days. The funeral took place on Sunday, services

place. Pallbearers were grandsons Nathan J., J. Bunyan, W. Chester and Walter
A. WISE, James HESS, James A. MOBLEY, John L. Norris undertaker.
Mrs. HESS was a German descent, and was born at Spring Grove, this
county, but after marriage she lived in Lower Chanceford township until a few
years ago when she made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Ruth Ann WISE. About
five years ago she was stricken with paralysis from which she largely
recovered, though her speech was considerably affected. For a time however,
she could speak the German tongue quite well. She was a good mother, friend
and neighbor, full of kindness and good deeds. She was a member of Salem
church about 60 years. She is survived by five children, Jasper R., Bowling
Green, Ohio, J. Bunyan, M. Luther, and Alva E. HESS, of Lower Chanceford
township, and Mrs. Ruth Anna WISE, of Peach Bottom township; also by about 22
grand children, and several great grand children. Her husband died December
25, 1865 - 45 years ago.
