      ---
      Mrs. Parmelia Jarrell one of the oldest and best known ladies of Polk township, died at her home in Tyner Thursday, April 23, 1903, aged 89 years, 1 month and 23 days.
      Parmelia Wilson was born in Lewis county, Kentucky, Feb. 28, 1814, during the second war between the United States and England. There she grew to womanhood and moved with her father's family to Shelby county, Indiana in 1835.
      In 1837 she was married to James Sherwood. There were two children of that union, John W. and Louisa M.
      In 1843 she was united in marriage with Garrett F. Jarrell in Franklin county, Indiana. To that marriage seven children were born: Louisa, Garrett, William, Walter, Henry, Amanda and Mary. Her children are all living except John W. and Louisa.
      She, with her husband and family moved to Marshall county, Indiana, in September, 1859. Her husband died November 16, of the same year, and she lived a widow until her death.
      During all those years was she a kind and patient mother, a true friend and neighbor and reared a family of whom any woman might well be proud.
      She united with the Methodist Episcopal church in 1828, when only fourteen years old and lived a devout christian until her death.
      Funeral services were held at Tyner Saturday afternoon, April 25, Rev. A. P. Delong, of Plymouth, preaching the funeral sermon to a very large contgregation.
      Hers was a long and useful life and she will be long remembered in the neighborhood in which she lived."
