Mrs. Sarah Parish























Mrs. Sarah Parish, the wife of F. D. Parish, died on November 16, 1829 at the age of 29 years. According to Huron County marriage records, Sarah Strong had just married Francis D. Parish on January 18, 1829. How sad for Mr. Parish to lose his wife in their first year of marriage! An inscription at the base of the tombstone of Sarah Parish at Oakland Cemetery reads:

Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord.
