Vital Records, Jan/Feb. 1846

Died, In Eaton, Madison County New York on Saturday the 10th of January, Mrs. Beulah Orton, relict of the late Thomas Orton, Esqr. of Hamilton [Madison Co., NY] and mother of the editor of this paper, aged 69 years.  As a mother, she will ever be held in the most grateful remembrance by her children; as a woman, her life and virtues will continue to be pointed out as patterns for her sex, in the community where she was known and as a Christian, her piety and strong faith in the Redeemer, we believe, have opened before her the portals of Heaven, and given her a home in the bosom of God.  [Binghamton Courier, Jan. 14, 1846]

Died, in Troy, N.Y. [Rensselear Co.] on the 13th inst. after a short illness, Aloa [Mather], wife of John C. Mather, aged 31 years 8 months and 16 days.  The deceased was an amiable and benevolent woman, an affectionate wife, a kind and devoted mother, and a faithful and pious Christian. While her family and friends grieve her irreparable loss and early departure, they cannot but be consoled in the happy reflection that she is already reaping the joyous fruits of an interest in the atoning blood of her gracious Redeemer. [Binghamton Courier, Jan. 21, 1846]

Died, at Lenox, Mass. on Sunday the 4th inst., Rev. Samuel Shepherd D.D., Pastor of the Congregational Church in that town, aged 73 years.  Dr. Shepherd was ordained Pastor of that church April 30th 1795.  On the 30th day of April last he preached his fiftieth anniversary sermon.  He was a man of eminent talents, piety and usefulness.  [Binghamton Courier, Jan. 21, 1846]

Married, in Bridgewater Pa., Jan. 14, by Rev. Wm. M. DeLong, Mr. Stephen Bullock of Smithfield, Bradford Co. to Miss Lodemi B. Lane of the former place.  [Binghamton Courier, Jan. 28, 1846]

Died, in Union [Broome Co., NY], on Tuesday morning the 10th inst., Robert E. [Crocker], aged four years.  In this sudden bereavement (the deceased was scalded) the family of Mr. Crocker have been visited with an affliction which it would be in vain to attempt to portray.  They have the warm sympathies of the community, and we trust that God will temper the blow to hem and give them consolation from above.  [Binghamton Courier, Feb. 11, 1846]

Died, At Great Barrington, Berkshire county, Mass. on the 13th day of January last, of an affection of the heart, General John Whiting, Counselor at Law, aged 75 years.  It is a circumstance somewhat remarkable that the Rev'd Dr. Shepherd, Pastor of the church in that county, and Gen. Whiting the oldest Lawyer in the county, both died in the course of ten days; Dr. Shepherd having been Pastor upwards of fifty years, and Gen. Whiting, a member of the bar about fifty-four years. [Binghamton Courier, Feb. 11, 1846]

Died, in this village [Binghamton, Broome Co., NY], on Thursday the 5th inst., Mrs. Martha Gager, wife of Mr. Joshua Gager, aged 64 years.  [Binghamton Courier, Feb. 18, 1846]
