• Notes

  Koppes - Hannah Bergey Koppes was born in Canada, Feb. 13, 1841, and died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Elias Derhammer, in Medina, O., on Monday morning, March 8, 1909. When she was eight years of age she came with her family to Medina Co. A few months after coming here her mother died, leaving her with her brothers and sisters to be cared for by strangers. On Jan. 4, 1868, she joined in matrimony with John S. Koppes of Mountville, her late husband, whom she survived less than two years. To them were born seven children, one of whom preceded her to the spirit world in infancy, six remaining together with three stepchildren and twenty-one grandchildren who mourn the loss of a good mother, a good stepmother and a good grandmother. Since the death of her husband she had remained on the old homestead until late last fall when she went to the home of her daughter hoping to be made more comfortable during the cold of the winter, expecting with the coming of spring to return to the old home again. But alas! her plans were not to be carried out. It was our heavenly Father's good pleasure to take her home to Himself. Her remains were taken to the old home where funeral services were held on Thursday, March 11, and also at the North Guilford Mennonite Church where burial took place. The services were conducted by Ira Buckwalter of Dalton, O., assisted by N. A. Lind of the Mennonite Church of this place of which she had been a faithful member for many years.
