Reference: Elizabeth F. Hopkins Collection with the
Bible record of Thomas E. and Mary Dekle.
Obituary: Sister Elizabeth M. S. Dekle was born
8-17-1833 and was united in the holy bonds of matrimony with Thomas E. Dekle,
Sept. 1, 1847, and was the faithful and loving mother of fourteen children,
seven sons and seven daughters, most of whom are living in and around Lake
Butler, Fl. and are honorable men and women, some of them holding very
honorable positions. After filling a
mother's place in raising her children, she united with the church at her
appreciation to her brethren and sisters, administering to them the necessities
of life in her own home, but finally her measure was filled and she departed
this life Jan. 1st, 1911. We greatly
miss her but we feel that our great loss is her eternal gain.
