DEATH OF AN AGED LADY.
Last Sunday, August 3d, Mrs. Lament Bates died in Morrisonville, at the residence of her son-in-law, L. Adcock, at the advanced age of 97 years, 4 months and 3 days.
It may truly be said of her that she was a pioneer in the early history of Essex, Clinton and Franklin counties. As early as 1802, she removed from Rupert, Vt., to Chesterfield, Essex county, where her brother, Asaph Leavitt, had settled. In 1804 she married Mr. David Bates, and in 1805 she started, with her husband, for Moira, Franklin county, traveling through Clinton county on horse-back, on the trail indicated by marked, trees, and carrying with them their few articles of household effects. They were the fifth family that settled in the town of Moira, and lived there the principal part of their lives.
In 1823 Mrs. Bates visited her brother in Chesterfield, going alone, on horseback. Her residence in Morrisonville was of recent date.
On Tuesday of this week, the remains of the deceased were taken to Moira for internment, where her husband was buried many years ago. ~ Plattsburgh Sentinel 1879 Obituary
