Mrs. Ann R. Calkins, only daughter of William and Rachel Wilcox, was born in Lebanon, Madison County, N.Y., Nov. 29, 1837. Her father died three months previous to her birth and her mother, three years after, joined him in the realms above, leaving herself and an only brother (Charles Wilcox) with their grandparents (Champlin and Betsey Wilcox) who tenderly cared for them during the years of their childhood and with whom she always found a home until her marriage with Omer H. Calkins of Earlville [Madison Co. NY], Oct. 22, 1855. In the year 1860, April 18th, she was baptized and united with the Baptist church of Earlville where she has ever been an efficient laborer both in the church and Sabbath school. She was taken severely ill about the middle of January and for several days was very sick indeed, but was just beginning to convalesce when her father-in-law (Mr. Warner Calkins) was so suddenly killed. This terrible shock, in her enfeebled condition, was followed by complete prostration of her nervous system, from which, with the best of medical aid, together with the closest and best care and attention that loving hearts and hands could give, she could not seem to rally sufficiently to combat with the fearful disease that was upon her, and early in the morning of March 1, 1878, her spirit passed gently away, without a struggle or a moan.
Mournfully we laid her low, / No more to see in life; / But tears will never cease to flow, / For the loved and darling wife.
A sister so loving and beloved, / Has linked herself with earth and heaven; / A friend so pleasant and so tree, / Can never be forgotten.
Mournfully it can but be, / To us who know our loss; / But joy, unmingled joy is her's; / So, patiently, we'll bear the cross.
