Troy Free Press (Troy, Lincoln Co., MO) Fri., 12 Jan. 1917, page 4, column 5.

Sarah Ann CALDWELL was born near Beaumont, Franklin county, Mo., Oct. 24, 1833. Her parents died when she was about 9 years of age, after
which she made her home with relatives and later with a friend by the name of Walton with whom she was living at the time of her marriage to
Jacob C. MOSELEY November 27, 1856. They settled on a farm in Lincolnv county, 2 miles west of Hawk Point, where they made their home until a few years ago they moved near Troy. Ten children were born to them but only two survive - Mrs. John HASSELFIELD and Mrs. John CAMPBELL, who reside near Troy.

Mrs. MOSELEY united with the Baptist church while young, having her membership at Mt. Gilead for many years later transferring it to Troy. The writer was acquainted with this good woman for a long time, being her pastor half a dozen or more years and cheerfully testifies to her worthfulness of character and faithfulness through the years in the service of God.

For several years she was in poor health but always able to be about until only a few days before her death which occurred at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. John HASSELFIELD, Jan. 2, 1917, her age being 83 years, 3 months and 9 days.

Funeral services were conducted at the home Jan. 4 and the interment was in the Troy cemetery. May God comfort the sorrowing. - O. A. Gordon.
