Notes for Mary Frances CARLISLE
Mary Frances (Carlisle) Crandall 1874-1943
"The Milton Junction Telephone", Milton Junction, Wisconsin, Thursday, Nov. 4, 1943, p 4.
Mrs. Harry B. Crandall, Milton, died suddenly Sunday morning while being taken to Mercy hospital for treatment after a severe heart attack suffered early in the morning.
Mary Frances Carlisle was born Feb. 10, 1874, at Farina, Ill., one of the four daughters of Simon J. and Sarah Langworthy Carlisle. She spent her girlhood in and near Farina and was educated in the schools of southern Illinois. She joined the Seventh Day Baptist church of Farina and later transferred her membership to the Milton church in which she has been an active and interested member. She served as church clerk for several years and has held offices in the Women's circle of the church.
On August 9, 1893, she married Harry B. Crandall at Farina and they moved in 1909 to Milton where he has since operated Crandall's market on College street.
Mr. and Mrs. Crandall had anticipated celebrating their golden wedding anniversary with an open house this summer but Mrs. Crandall had suffered a severe heart attack May 10 and was a patient in Mercy hospital, Janesville, eight weeks. She made an extremely slow recovery after returning to her home so the open house was postponed indefinitely. The anniversary was spent as quietly as possible in the home, although the news that morning of the sudden death of Mr. Crandall's brother, Wilmer H. Crandall, saddened the day for them. Numerous friends remembered the date and their living rooms were a veritable garden of flowers and potted plants. They received 165 greeting cards as well as many gifts.
Although frail, Mrs. Crandall had gained sufficiently so that in recent weeks she was able to be up a good part of each day and had even been able to take several rides. She was a member of the Women's Village Improvement club and especially active in the Nature Study group of that club.
Survivors are the husband; a daughter, Mildred, Mrs. Walter Hudson, Milton; a grandson, John Crandall Hudson; the son-in-law; two nieces, Mrs. George Carlisle, Farina, Ill., and Mrs. W. A. Kenyon, St. Paul, Minn.; one nephew, Floyd Merrill, Madison, and several cousins. A son, Harold Carlisle, died in early childhood.
Funeral services were held at 2 p,m, Tuesday in the Milton S.D.B. church, the Rev. Carroll L. Hill officiating and being assisted by Rev, Willard D. Burdick. Kenneth Babcock sang two selections. Burial was in Milton cemetery with R. L. Hull, W. H. Waterman, G. E. Crosley, W. E. Rogers, B. R. Rood and F. H. Holmes acting as pallbearers.

Funeral services for Harry B. Crandall, 79, Milton, who died Sunday were held at 2 p.m. Wednesday in the Milton Seventh Day Baptist church, the Rev. Elmo Fitz Randolph officiating. Burial was in Milton cemetery.
Before his retirement in 1945, Mr. Crandall had been in the grocery and meat business here for 33 years, part of that time in partnership with Loyal Hull. Since 1945, when health permitted, he operated a riding academy near Eagle River.
Mr. Crandall was president of the Milton Cemetery association, vice president of the Bank of Milton and for many years was president of the Building and Loan association here. He was a member of the Milton Seventh Day Baptist church and the I. O. O. F. Du Lac lodge.
The son of Henry F. and Lucinda Cottrell Crandall, he was born Oct. 25, 1872, in Milton Junction. The family moved to Dennison, Ia., that year and went to North Loup Neb., by covered wagon. The family moved to Mississippi in 1888 and he went to Farina, Ill., to live with an uncle while attending high school. In 1893 he was married to Mary Frances Carlisle in Farina, and they marked their golden wedding anniversary Aug. 9, 1943, two months before her death.
He is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Walter Hudson, a grandson, John Hudson, and a brother, Fred A., all of Milton. A son, Harold, two sisters and a brother preceded him in death.
