My paternal great-grandaunt, Ora Amanda HALEY, married on this date in 1904 in Jay County, Indiana to Franklin Oliver BITTIKOFER. Ora was born August 25, 1884 in Jay County, Indiana, the daughter of George Washington and Mary Jane (SHERRICK) HALEY. Frank was born circa 1883 in Indiana. They lived in Mercer and Miami Counties, Ohio. They had 6 children. The last record I have for them is the 1930 census. Nothing further is known.
My maternal 3rd-great grandaunt, Emma P. PIERCE, was born on this date in 1851. Emma was the daughter of Francis S. and Rebecca (PAGE) PIERCE, and the younger sister of my Edmund G. PIERCE. Emma died August 15, 1853.

Obituary: Mary Jane (Sherrick) (Haley) Kimble (1844-1916)
Source: The Commercial Review, Portland, Indiana, January 15, 1916, page 1.
MRS. KIMBALL DIED SATURDAY
DEATH OCCURRED AT HER HOME IN NOBLE TOWNSHIP FOLLOWING ILLNESS
PAST 72 YEARS OF AGE
Funeral Will Be Held Tuesday Morning At The Mt. Zion Church
Mrs. Mary Haley Kimball, wife of Robert Kimball, died at her home in Noble township, Saturday morning, after a lingering illness. She was born in Ashland County, Ohio, January 13, 1844, having passed her 72nd birthday anniversary Friday. Her husband and the following children survive her: A.F. Haley, Rosston, Ohio; Eli Haley, Nina, wife of George Zorn, both of Noble township; Carrie, wife of Arthur Graves, of Midland, Mich.; Rev. E.D. Haley, of Celina, Ohio, Oral wife of Frank Bittikoffer, Bradford, Ohio. Her step-children are: Minnie wife of William Wells , of Ft. Recovery, Alberta and Wesley Kimball of Noble township. Three sisters and two brothers also remain.
Funeral services will be held Tuesday morning at 10:30 o'clock at Mt. Zion church, Rev. Kauffman and Rev. Baumgartner officiating. Burial will be made in Mt. Zion cemetery.
Comment: The correct spelling of the surname is KIMBLE, as evidence by her marriage license and other records. Mary Jane SHERRICK was my paternal 2nd-great grandmother. Her first husband, George Washington HALEY, passed away in 1892 and she remarried in 1897 to Robert E. KIMBLE. This obituary gives some new data for me, including places of residence of her children during this time period.
