In Alfred Centre, N. Y., May 15th, 1880, Amos Burdick, aged 85 years, 7 months, and 8 days. Early in the month of November, in alighting from a wagon he fell and broke his hip, which resulted in his death. He was born in Westerly, R. I., in 1794. In 1802 he moved to Brookfield, N. Y., and in 1816 he came on foot to Alfred. In 1818 he was married to Anstis Clark of Brookfield, and returned to Alfred, and for twenty years lived on the farm where he first settled, and then he moved to Alfred Centre, where he remained until his death. He was a man of excellent judgment and of industrious and economical habits. As a citizen, he was highly respected and useful. He, at an early day, engaged heartily in the temperance reform and in the anti slavery movement, and we might say he was found on the right side of every good cause. Early in life, his heart was won by the love of Christ to the service of God, and through all the years of his pilgrimage he was true to his profession. On coming here he united with the First Seventh-day Baptist Church of Alfred, of which he remained a faithful member until his death.

Anstis (Clarke) Burdick 1801-1884 The Sabbath Recorder Obituary
"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 40, No 24, p 8, June 13, 1884.
At her home in Alfred Centre, N. Y., June 1, 1884, of paralysis, Anstis, relict of Amos Burdick, aged 83 years and 4 months. Deceased was the daughter of John Clarke and Mary Wait, born in Exeter, R. I., in 1801, removed with her parents to Brookfield, N. Y., in 1810, was married to Amos Burdick in her eighteenth year, and came with her husband to Alfred in 1819. She was the mother of Mrs. Clarissa B. Vincent of Milton, Wis., and of Milo (deceased), and William C., and Silas C. Burdick of Alfred. She was a woman of true piety and sterling integrity of character, quick in her perception of right and wrong, and uncompromising in her convictions and purposes. In all the relations of life, as daughter, wife, mother, neighbor, friend, as a member of the First Seventh-day Baptist Church of Alfred, to which she belonged over sixty years, she was staunch and true. Coming to Alfred while the country was still a wilderness, she has borne an honorable part in its history, giving hearty support to all influences tending to the welfare of the community and as hearty opposition to all harmful tendencies. Although clinging to life, she received the summons to enter the valley and shadow of death with Christian meekness. She trusted the Lord for a fulfillment of all his promises, which were very precious to her. After five weeks of continuous suffering, she passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family and friends, who delighted in the privilege of performing for her the last offices of love, and who will not cease while they live to cherish and bless her memory. The funeral services were held at the Church Tuesday afternoon, June 3d, conducted by Rev. W. C. Titsworth, the pastor, assisted by Rev. Drs. J. Allen, D. E. Maxson and T. R. Williams. Her remains were interred in our beautiful cemetery.
