Anne Taylor ELLIOTT Irvine

Mrs. A.T. Irvine, the mother of Mrs. W.C. Lansdon of this city died at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Robert Stack in Woodworth , La. , last night at twelve o’clock of heart failure. She had been in very frail health for a long time and a fatal termination of her illness was not unexpected. Mrs. Irvine was the widow of Colonel W.A. Irvine, a distinguished confederate soldier who was an officer in Morgan’s famous cavalry corps. Col. and Mrs. Irvine came to Kansas in pioneer days and were among the first settlers at Pawnee Rock in Pawnee County , Kansas. For many months Mrs. Irvine was the only white woman at Pawnee Rock. Colonel Irvine died about 10 years ago and is buried at Fort. Scott.
