Narrative

[Obituary for Eva D. Welch, from the Lima News, 16 Jul 1974, p4; posted online to the FindaGrave.com website.]

Eva D. Welch, 92, formerly of Lima, died at 12:52 a.m. Monday in San Antonio Nursing Home, Kenton, following an extended illness. Born Oct. 21, 1881, in Belmore, she was the daughter of the late Wilson and Eliza Ann Bishop Newell.

She was married July 10, 1904, to Bruce H. Welch. He died Jan. 10, 1958. Mrs. Welch was a member of Trinity United Methodist Church, Floral Garden Club, Dorcas Circle of the church and Ruth Bible Class.

She is survived by two sons, Joseph R. of Findlay and Donald N. of Koscuisko, Miss.; a daughter, Roma of Rt. 1, six grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren.

Services will be at 11 a.m. Thursday in Chiles and Sons - Laman West Wayne Street Chapel, Rev. George Taylor officiating. Burial will be in Memorial Park Cemetery.

Friends may call at the funeral home from 7 to 9 tonight and 7 to 9 p.m. Wednesday.

Narrative

Eva's US Social Security Death Index record gives her birthdate as 21 Oct 1882, while her obituary and gravestone give the year as 1881. In all the US Census records from 1910 through 1940, her age is always reported as ending in "8," with her birthday yet to come later in each of those years. As such I believe the USSDI record is incorrect.
