Bu yn byw yn Utica, ac yn nghymydogaeth New Hartford, am agos i 10 mlynedd, ac yr oedd iddi air da fel boneddiges garedig a haelionus. Yr oedd yn aelod o eglwys Bethesda; a'r blynyddau diweddaf, dangosodd ffyddlondeb mawr gydag achos crefydd.
Yr oedd yn fam dirion a phriod hawddgar; a'r egwyddor Gristionogol a lywodraethai ei bywyd oedd - gwneyd i eraill fel y dymunai i eraill wneyd iddi hi. Deallwn i ddamwain â gyfarfu yn ystod selni ei mab (yr hwn a fu farw tua dau fis yn ôl) brysuro ei marwolaeth; a bu am lawer o amser dan arteithiau llymion.
Claddwyd hi y dydd Gwener canlynol, pryd y gweinyddwyd gan y Parch. Dr. Gwesyn Jones.
