York, Ellen (22 February 1909 - 20 September 1962)

 

Funeral services were held Sunday from the Zion American Lutheran Church in the town of Grant for Mrs. Edward York, 53, Rt. 1, Granton, who died September 20, after a long illness. The Rev. Evan Dieck officiated. Burial was made in the church cemetery.  Arrangements were made by the Gilbertson Funeral Home in Granton.

 

Mrs. York, the former Ellen Ross, was born February 22, 1909, in Chicago, Ill.  She received her education there and on August 8, 1942, was married to Edward York in Wheaton, Ill.  The York family moved to the Granton area about six years ago and purchased the Schmidtke farm in the Town of Fremont.

 

She was a member of the Zion American Lutheran Church.

 

She is survived by her husband; three step-children, Mrs. Mildred Hellinga of Bremerton, Wash., Mrs. Leona Wagner of Harvard, Ill., and LeRay York of Chili; and by six grandchildren.
