McELLIGOTT, Mrs. L. October 28, 1922 Mariposa Gazette:
Mrs. L. McELLIGOTT Called By Death
The entire community was cast into deep sorrow and gloom on Saturday morning, when it was known that Mrs. Lucy McELLIGOTT, one of the oldest and most highly respected citizens of Mariposa, had been fatally strickened and had suddenly entered into the shadows of death.
Mrs. McELLIGOTT, apparently in the best of health, rose early on this morning and had been very busy attending to her household duties when she was stricken with paralysis. Friends and relatives who had called at the home found in a serious condidtion and she soon lost entire consciousness and never rallied. In spite of all that had been done for her by loving hands and medical attention, the angel of death queitly and peacefully came to relive her.
Mrs. Lucy McELLIGOTT was born at Bear Valley, Mariposa county, in 1862 and was, at the time of her passing, age 59 years, 11 months and 18 days. In this beautiful little valley she spent her childhood and grew into womanhood and was considered one of the most popular belles of all the community. In 1891 she became the bride of Patrick McELLIGOTT who preceeded her to the grave only a few years. To them were born four sons, James P., Maynard H., and Chas. F. of Mariposa, and Marvin T. of Fresno.
Mrs. McELLIGOTT was one of God’s own women, a devoted wife, a patient loving mother, a kind and charitable friend and neighbor. She was loved and respected by all and her memory will remain fresh and dear in the minds of all who had known her, until they too are called to cross the great divide.
Besides the four sons, she is survived by three sisters, Mrs. John BRANSON, of Madera; Mrs. Annie GOURNET, of Fresno and Mrs. Mary ENGLISH of Oregon, and four grandchildren.
The funeral services were held at the home at 2:30 o’clock Thursday afternoon under the auspices of the Mariposa Parlor Native Daughter Lodge of which she had been a charter member. Internment being beside her husband in the family plot in the Masonic cemetery.

McELLIGOTT, Patrick H. April 22, 1916 Mariposa Gazette: P. H. McELLIGOTT, WELL KNOWN RESIDENT DEAD
The subject of this sketch, Patrick H. McELLIGOTT, was born in Quebec, Cnada, on July 6, 1857, and died in Mariposa, on Sunday, April 6, 1916. He came to this county in the early seventies, and located in Bear Valley, Mariposa county in 1876. On May 21, 1881, he married to Miss Lucy E. GUEST, who has been his life’s companion and now survives him.
His first employment in this county was with the Mariposa Grant at Benton Mills as a machinist. Subsequently, and during the administration of Judge O’CONNOR as Superintendent, he was for a number of years overseer of the Grant, beside holding other positions of responsibilty and trust with the same company, and discharged all duties incumbent upon him always with entire satisfaction to his employers.
He came to Mariposa in January, 1889, where he engaged in business, and where he had resided ever since.
The decedent possessed rare genius as a machinist, having a brillant mechanical mind. No task in his line was too intricate for him to master, and he easily ranked among that class of mechanics, who have few equals and no superiors.
By reason of this extraordinary ability, his death has entailed a almost irreparable loss, not only to this immediate vicinity, but to Mariposa county generally.
In November, 1898, he was elected coroner and public administrator of this county, which position he occupied for four years. During his offical term the same principles of honesty, integrity and eficency were pursued, that so preeminently characterized his work in private life.
The deceased in recent years has been associated with his son, James, in general mechanical business and also as a undertaker.
Besides his widow, he leaves four sons, viz: James, Maynard, Charles and Mervin; all of whom are grown to manhood, and, by reason of the early care and education bestowed upon them by a kind and considerate father, as well as mother, they are now well equipped for their part in the drama of life.
“Pat” McELLIGOTT, as he was familiarly called, was a devoted and affectionate husband and wothy neighbor, all of which was proclaimed by the unusually large concourse of people that attended his last sad rites, when laid to rest in the Masonic cemetery, at Mariposa, on Tuesday last.
