"With the passing of Mary Elizabeth Roth of Forada the place of another of the few remaining  pioneers of Douglas and Pope Counties is vacant.
Mrs Roth was born in Turness, New York, Feb 24, 1851 and died at the home of her daughter Mrs Grace Torrens, in Glenwood, Thursday Apr 9, 1942, at the ripe old age of ninety one years. She came to Minnesota with her parents, Mr and Mrs Francis Frederick, when four years old in a covered wagon drawn by oxen. They settled at Shakopee and lived there until after the civil war when the family again migrated by wagon and took Land near the North end of Lake Reno.
On September 17, 1872 she was married to Albert Roth, a returned Civil War soldier. For a few years they lived at Herman, Min, but returned to the Reno township to help run the farm of her father who was losing his eyesight. They later moved to the "Strangway Farm" now owned by Leonard Schoemaker. It was here that her husband died, leaving her with four small children.
Faced with the problems of making a living and bringing up her family, Mrs. Roth obtained a few acres of land and built for herself and family a small home in Hudson township on the north shore of Maple Lake. Here her children grew to manhood and womanhood. They were not easy years. In the beginning the children were small and pioneering conditions prevailed. One evening when Mrs. Orth went for the cows in the unfenced timber around the lakes, she got lost. Throughout that dark, cold, rainy, night she kept walking in order to keep as warm as possible. At daybreak she heard the cowbell and found the herd not far from where she had spent the night. This is just one instance of the many hardships endured. But they made a hardy, self-reliant, woman, sympathetic too, from what she herself had gone through. To those who knew her she was lovingly known as "Grandma".
In 1914 she moved to Forada to make a home for her blind, aged father. The past dew winters she has lived with her daughter in Glenwood, otherwise Forada has been her home since.
Mrs Roth is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Byron T. Emerson, (Hattie) of Minneapolis, and Mrs. Grace Torrens, Glenwood; and one son, George Roth of Villard. The elder son Clarence died in Washington in 1912. There are also surviving 15 grandchildren and twenty one great grandchildren; two brothers, Frank Frederick of Akley, MN and Charles Frederick of Chicago and three sisters, Mrs Sarah Prodger, and Mrs. G.R. Trembly of Olympia Oregon, and Mrs Effie Junkin of Oregon City, Oregon.
The funeral services Were conducted from the Congregational Church Glenwood, by Rev. Broem, pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Forada, of which church Mrs Roth was an active member. Rev Broem was assisted by Rev Olmstad of the Congregational Church. Music was furnished by the Congregational choir. Six grandsons were pall bearers: Lester and Delbert Torrens, Wallace Russell and Ward Roth, and Waldo Emerson. Interment was made in the Glenwood Cemetery.
Relatives from away who attended the funeral were: Mr and Mrs Byron T Emerson, Mrs Clarence Anderson and Juanita Roth from Minneapolis, Russell Roth, Camp Ord, California, Ward Roth, Clarion, Iowa, Mr and Mrs Waldo Emerson, St Paul, and Mrs Harold Emerson, Sandusky, Ohio."
