OTTAWA COUNTY .6
MRS. CATHERINE KILPATRICK.
Mrs. Catherine (Pickle) Kilpatrick died January, 1885, in the town of Wright, aged ninety-six years. She was born in Kentucky, October 3, 1788, where she lived until she was thirty-two years old, when she married a man by the name of Harris, and they, with two of her brothers, removed to Ohio. Mr. Harris died soon after, and she afterward married William Kilpatrick,
a soldier of the War of 1812. They came to Michigan in 1850, to Ottawa county, where she lived the remainder of her life. In her later years she was supported and cared for by the poor authorities of the town of Wright. She had two children—a son by her first husband, and a daughter by her second. Her funeral was attended by Rev. Mr. Jordan, of the M. B. Church.
