Allgyer - On Oct. 14, 1896, a daughter, Priscilla Adeline, was born into the home of Jacob and Barbara Kurtz Umble. The sons, John, Frank, Isaac, and Jacob, and the daughters, Priscilla and Anna, made a typical Lancaster County Christian home. Of these only Isaac and Anna remain. On Jan. 18, 1883, Priscilla took the hand of Samuel E. Allgyer in holy matrimony and with him established a home in Ohio. Eight children were born to this union: Eva, Barbara, Maude, Roy, Anna, Ruth, Maurice, and John. Maude and Barbara broke the circle in 1929 and 1933. There are 21 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. On April 23, 1946; she peacefully and quietly fell asleep, at the age of 83 y. 6 m. 9 d. Her quiet passing was an answer to her prayers. She was a loyal and devoted wife, a generous and loving mother, a faithful member of her church, and a true friend who won the hearts of all who knew her. Father and Mother Allgyer built their home on the solid foundation of the principle of Christianity, and established prayer and family worship as cornerstones. They dedicated themselves to the goal of providing the opportunity of high-school education for each of their children. In attaining this ambition, Mother formed the habit of growing and learning with her children, and many times was discovered late at night reading a history or a book of literature. This genuine interest in life about her constituted a backlog which kept the flame of youth and learning ever aglow through all the years. She had no faith but sure trust in God and in Christ her Saviour. She chose no other way but to follow Him in confident devotion. She asked no honor but the honor to love and to be loved. For the devoted example of her life, truly her children, her children's children and their children shall rise up to call her blessed. Funeral services were held at the hone and the Oak Grove Church, April 25, by N.E. Troyer, Nelson Kenagy, and D.A. Yoder. Burial was made in the Oak Grove Cemetery.
