Additional: Catharine Gilroy was born in Clark county, O., Jan. 22, 1834, and came with her parents to what is known as the old Gilroy farm, south of Waynesfield, Ohio, in 1836. She and her husband were schoolmates in Waynesfield district school. She was united in marriage with C. C. Pepple, Oct 25, 1855. To this union, eight children were born; two of whom died in infancy, and the eldest son died at the age of 16. Three sons and two daughters survive the mother. Mrs. Pepple was converted and joined the M. P. church in Waynesfield, in 1865, and has sustained a very creditable relation to the same ever since. Although for years her health was poor, yet her voice was often heard in prayer meetings. In her home life she was truly a devoted wife and mother; ever attentive to the wants of her loved ones--in fact the life of this sister was one of those lives that made itself felt for good, in the home and the community. After a long and severe illness, sister Pepple quietly passed to her final rest, Friday, June 17, 1904, aged 70 years, 4 months and 23 days.
