| 4357 | from "The Galveston Daily News" 10 Jun 1992 (posted by Robert Hague of findagrave.com) Frances C. Usher, a member of the Houston bar, died last night at his residence in the Fourth ward. Deceased was born in 1843 in Princeton, Caldwell county, Kentucky. He lived in his native town until the commencement of the war, and then joined the Rock City Guard in Manney's Tennessee regiment and continued in the Confederate army until the war closed. He attended a law course at Lebanon, Tenn., after the war, and settled in this city and began the practice of his profession in 1867. In 1878 he married Emily G. Bagby, a daughter of Mrs. Maria Bagby and the Colonel T.M. Bagby, deceased, and a niece of the Hon. Wm. R. Baker, our present mayor. Mr. Usher was a man of fine intellect and but for the fact that consumption , the disease of which he finally died, fastened early upon him and suppressed his energies, he would have rapidly risen the distinction. He was kind in disposition, courteous to every one, and a devoted christian. He was warmly esteemed in all circles that he moved in. He leaves a wife and two little daughter, and their many friends sympathize in the sad bereavement. His funeral took place this afternoon, and was largely attended by members of the bar and citizens generally. | Usher, Francis Clements (I1679)

| 4378 | from "The Glens Falls Daily Times", 27 Dec 1881 (fultonhistory.com) An event we are called upon to chronicle this morning - the sudden death of Mrs. Marvin C. Palmer - is unquestionably the saddest item of news to relate that we have known in the city during our three years' experience in the newspaper business. An estimable, attractive, lovely young wife has passed from this earth to a home above, leaving behind a heartbroken husband, a grief-stricken family, and, saddest of all, a sweet little babe that will never know the fond tenderness of a mother's love. Her sun has gone down while it is yet noon, but the good she has done this world will ever shine, and the record that survives to keep her memory green is such as you - yes, very few - women of the age of the lamented Mrs. Palmer leave behind. No wonder that the news yesterday morning of her sudden demise cast a Gloom over the entire community, and has come home to all with a sense of personal bereavement. Such an announcement is certainly well calculated to invoke sympathy, especially when so lovely a woman is the unfortunate victim of the searching Hand of Death. Lydia Estelle Pockman was born at East Greenbush twenty-six years ago the sixth day of last February. Her parents are John P. Pockman and Elmira Pockman. She has three brothers and a sister living. The two older brothers are married. One of them, who resides at Greenville, N.J., was married only two weeks ago. All of the above named relatives arrived in the city last night and proceeded at once to the home of the late Mrs. Palmer, No. 62 Bay street. The sickness of this estimable woman was a very short duration. She was confined to her bed but 30 hours. Her death occurred yesterday morning at two o'clock. The funeral service will be held from her late residence Wednesday afternoon at two o'clock. The Rev. A.J. Fennell, of the First Presbyterian Church, will officiate. Deceased and her husband were both members of that church. The memory of this beautiful and good woman will never die out. Her charity was broad, like the lands of the earth; her love was deep like it's waters. Faith, bright and steadfast, never left her until it was lost forever in the glad sight of her Father's home. That a universally beloved woman has passed away is the feeling of ??? and to her husband, the bereaved family and innocent little one, the above ??? - appreciative and sympathetic- are inscribed. May God give them courage to bear their affliction, which is great. | Pockman, Lydia Estelle (I1157)

| 4390 | from "The Glens Falls Post-Star", 2 Aug 1956 (newspapers.com) Those who were privileged to know intimately Estelle C. Palmer, whose death occurred this week, will long cherish the memory of an exceptionally fine woman, who loved Glens Falls and served on many committees which made valuable contributions to the welfare of the city. Older residents of Glens Falls what recall Miss Palmer as one who served during World War I for many months at the headquarters of the Red Cross. She was patriotic, civic minded, zealous and unselfish in her devotion to all worthwhile projects, with which she became associated. From that active life and prominence in this community over a long period of time, ill health in recent years made it necessary for her to lead an entirely different type of Life. Practically ill all of her time in recent years, with the exception of several confinements in Glens Falls hospital, has been spent in her home. Each day she read newspapers and publications that kept her well informed and enabled her to discuss current events with her most intimate friends, some of whom she called frequently for enjoyable telephone visits. When she informed her friends, from time to time, but she was to be confined for several weeks and Glens Falls hospital, she always did so in a cheerful manner, assuring her friends not to be concerned about her, for the hospital visit was to be simply for a checkup and rest. When her friends visited her in the hospital she appreciated the visits, but her friends left the hospital inspired by her cheeriness and bravery, despite the serious illness which afflicted her. Recently she called a friend on the telephone and said she had not been feeling well, but was perfectly resigned to her illness and "ready and anxious for the long sleep, whenever it arrived." The plans, which she ordered to be carried out after her death, were again typical of her kindness thoughtfulness for friends and her unselfishness. Miss Palmer said she did not want friends in distant cities, or even in this area, "bothered" by feeling that they must take time to come to her funeral. Her instructions were to have her eyes removed after death and delivered to an eye-bank. Her remains were then to be buried immediately, with the simplest kind of a burial ceremony. It was evident to her close friends that she wanted the most inexpensive funeral possible so that there would be much more in her estate to contribute to several local institutions, which she held in high regard throughout her life and wanted to remember as generously as possible in her will. Miss Palmer was best known to her intimate friends, as well as a wide circle of acquaintances, as "Daisy" Palmer. Her friendship, her kind and friendly manner and her constant desire to be helpful to others, will make her memory a cherished one by all who knew her. | Palmer, Estelle Coolidge “Daisy” (I1306)

| 4397 | from "The Glens Falls Times", 11 Aug 1881 (fultonhistory.com) The expressions of universal regret that are current in the city so often of late over the sudden demise of aged residents are once more heard at the death of Mrs. James Palmer, whose lamp of life has been extinguished since the last issue of this paper, at which time her death was momentarily expected. The particulars of her life, if they were chronicled here as known by her friends, would contain not a single event which could be mentioned but in her praise. Her tender regard for her children and husband bespeak her womanly qualities. Mrs. Palmer was born in Victory Hills, Saratoga county, 71 years and eight months ago. And up to the time she was taken sick with gastric fever (some two months ago) which caused her death, she had never experienced a sick day. Her husband survives her; also two children - Marvin Palmer, the Glen street market man, and Mrs T.S. Coolidge. The funeral service will be held at the late home of the departed, No. 62 Bay Street, Friday morning at 11:30 o'clock. The kindly, Christian character of this woman was such that we do not wonder the news of her exchange of worlds has cast a gloom over her relatives and acquaintances and come home to each with a sense of personal bereavement. | Clements, Jane (I1154)
