JANE DUFF DEMPSTER. 1845-1914

Jane Duff Dempster was born in Muirkirk, Scotland, June 22, 1845, and died in her late residence in Fairfield township, Fayette Co., Iowa, Sunday morning, August 2nd, 1914, aged 69 years, 1 month and 10 days.

Jane Duff came to America with her parents at seven years of age. The family located at Pittsburgh, Pa. where they remained for a short time when they removed to Clayton and later to Fayette County, Iowa. She was united in marriage with James T. Dempster, September 22nd, 1861. Soon after their marriage Mr. Dempster purchased the farm now known as the Dempster estate where she has since resided. To Mr. and Mrs. Dempster were born nine children, four of whom preceded them in death. Mr. Dempster departed this life in June 1907.

Mrs. Dempster was converted and united with the Methodist Episcopal church in June 1891 during the pastorate of the Rev. W. W. Carlton. She is survived by one brother John Duff, of Dunn, Washington, and one sister Mrs. Mary R. Smith, of Volga City, Iowa also by five children as follows: Mrs. Marion Watts of Buena Vista county, Iowa, John Dempster, David Dempster, Mrs. Levina Squires and Mrs. Mary A. Fox all of Fayette county, Iowa besides a goodly number of grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Funeral services were conducted by Rev. H. H. Barton at the home Tuesday morning, Aug. 4th and her body laid to rest by the side of her husband in Taylorsville cemetery, six of her grandsons acting as pall bearers. By special request her niece, Miss Duff, sang a scotch hymn, entitled "Mine Aine Countrie."
