LYDIA WOLESLAGEL
Lydia Ann, the daughter of John and Barbara Royer, was born in Sandusky Co,
Ohio, on the 22nd day of March, 1855. On Oct 2, 1873, she was united in
marriage to Jacob F Woleslagel.
In 1878, they moved from Ohio to Sterling, Kansas making that their home until
about 1911, when they removed to a ranch at Sun City, Kansas, living there until
about 1914. Since that time her home has been most of the time, with her son E
G Woleslagel, of Hutchinson, Kansas.
Mrs Woleslagel passed on, Wednesday morning, Aug 7, 1935, at the home of her
daughter, Mrs Nola Whitehill, in San Francisco, California, where she was
visiting. Beside her daughter, three sons survive: J L Woleslagel, of Sterling;
E G Woleslagel, of Hutchinson; J H Woleslagel of Richmond, Ohio; and 8
grandchildren. Her husband having passed on about 15 years ago and an infant

Royer, of Alden, Kansas; and three sisters: Mrs John Rubert, Whiting, Kansas;
Mrs A A Stewart, Kansas City, Missouri; and Mrs L D Shonyo, Los Angeles,
California .
Mrs Woleslagel endeavored to live the life of a Christian, seeking divine
guidance in all things, daily reading the Bible and actively doing the work
before her. With such a character one can truly say, “O death where is thy
sting, O grave where is thy victory?” Her body was laid to rest in the Sterling
Cemetery with a beautiful benediction given by Mrs Ivy Wheaton, being the 20th
verse of the 5th chapter of 1st John. The pall bearers were: S P Nold, F D Coe,
C H Scott, W S Kerr, J H Pargeter and G C Tipton.
{And we know the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we
may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus
Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.}Family links:
