Mrs. William Coates Josephine Pierce, second daughter of Robert and Dimus Pierce, was born on a farm near Spring Grove, August 30, 1851. She attended the Cole school not far distant, and afterward spent one happy school year at Bloomington, 111. She grew to womanhood in this vicinity and most of her beautiful life was spent in this county. On December 31, 1874, she was united in marriage to William Coates of Ringwood. To this union were born three daughters, Mrs. Rilla E. Foss and Mrs. Alec Anderson of Ringwood and Mrs. Cal Williamson of Los Angeles, California. After a number of years were spent in farm life, this family moved to Ringwood in 1890. Of her own family, but one brother remains, Job Pierce of Nebraska City, Neb. Her three sisters and an infant brother have preceded her in death. She had six grandchildren, Dorcas It Foss Jones, who passed away May 4, 1924; Wayne and Floyd Foss of Ringwood Josephine and Marjory Williamson of Los Angeles, Cal., and Dora Mae Anderson of Ringwood. She was also blessed with one great grandchild, Warren James Jones, besides innumerable relatives a n d f r i e n d s . --i :--• At an early age she. joined the Methodist Episcopal church of Ringwood and remained one of its most faithful workers. She will be greatly missed in the Ladies' Aid Society, of which she was an active member. Lending a helping hand "in time of sickness and trouble was one of her foremost ambitions, and it was not until she lacked strength, that her great work ceased. As a mother and grandmother her virtues were unexcelled. She took pride in her flowers, as well as her household. Aj spirit of willingness and determination burned constantly in her heart. After a brief illness, she passed peacefully from her earthly home to the Great Beyond, on June 16, 1924, at the advanced age of 72 years, 9 months and 6 days. The funeral was held from the Methodist church, on Wednesday at 2 p. m., with Rev. Ross officiating.
