Charlotte Catt Walts
Aged Winslow Lady, Widow of the Late John Walts Died at Her Home After Long Illness
Mrs. Charlotte Catt Walts, widow of the late John Walts, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Nola M. Bottom, in Winslow, at 11:30 o'clock Friday night, the 17th inst., as the result of a stroke of apoplexy. She was sick but one day.
Charlotte CAtt was the daughter of the late Amos and Mary Morgan Catt and was born in Clay township on the 22nd day of January, 1849, having reached the advanced age of 88 years 10 months and 25 days. She received such schooling as the schools of the vicinity offered and had the advantage of rearing in a fine home as her family was one of the best that ever lived in this county.
On the 2nd day of March, 1871, she was united in marriage to John Walts, a fine young farmer of the neighborhood, and the following children of that union survive, Mrs. Nola B. Bottom, Ollie Be Walts, Grover C. Walts, Miss Tina Walts, all of near Winslow, and MRs. Wesley Welton, of Petersburg. One son, Norman B., preceded his mother to the grave and the husband died some 8 or 9 years ago.
Mrs. Walts had been a member of the church at Pleasant Ridge for the past many years and throughout her long and useful life had lived up to the professions of her faith and had been a devoted servant of the Master and a neighbor and friend whose value to the community was beyond estimate. A woman who stood for all the better things she lived the sort of life that is an encouragement and an inspiration to all who knew her. Of the sturdy pioneer stock that first made their homes in the wilderness she had no patience with ways of life that were not in accordance witht he teachings of her earlier days and of her church.
The funeral services were conducted at Pleasant Ridge church by the Rev. C. W. Parks at 10 o'clock Monday morning, the 20th inst., and the body was laid to rest in Walnut Hills cemetery. Harris and Soas were the undertakers in charge.
