Haskell Family History
Rhena Ann (Bardwell) Haskell 1841-1914
...Obituary
Mrs. David Haskell
Rhena Ann Bardwell was born March 26, 1841, at Graner, Alleghany co., NY and died Feb. 22, 1914 in Hancock.
She was united in marriage to David S. Haskell November 23, 1862, at Dalton, NY. They came to Plainfield, WI., in April 1865, there living until the fall of 1899 when they moved to Hancock where they have since resided. To them were born two sons and three daughters; LaFayete Grant , who died at Plainfield Sept 21 1866, at the age of 2 yrs and 3 mos., Mrs. Anna Rozell, of Bancroft; Mrs. Lura Bound, Ray Haskell and Mrs. Nancy Piper, also of Hancock. Besides these children she leaves to mourn her loss, her husband, one brother, Joel Bardwell, of Elmira NY., and also a half brother, Harrison Bardwell, of Minneapolis.
Mrs. Haskell has been suffering with a cancer for several months. During her last illness she was most tenderly cared for by her husband and children. This good lady possessed a most gentle and self-sacrificing character. Her life was lived to a useful purpose and she died as she had lived -- highly respected by her acquaintances and dearly loved by her people.
Funeral services were held at the home Tuesday afternoon and interment was made in the family lot in Plainfield cemetery.
