At Hanna City Miss Clemmer met Mr. Turbitt, whom she married February 25, 1903, the couple going on a farm for seven years. Fifteen years ago they came to Peoria. She was of the Presbyterian faith but attended the Hale Memorial church there. Surviving are her husband and five children, four sons, Milo, Leroy, Walter and Orville, and one daughter, Erma, all at home. Funeral services were at the Ziegler funeral home at one o'clock, Monday afternoon after which the body was conveyed to the Hanna City Presbyterian church where further services were conducted at two o'clock. Burial was in the cemetery six miles of Hanna City. The family has the sympathy of the entire community in their bereavement.
