| After the death of her
father, William Blakely Peters, Sarah
purchased this home located at 88 Elm
Street in Oneonta and her mother Hannah
came to live with them for the remainder
of her life. Hannah passed away on April
2nd, 1930 at the age of 91 years, 8
months and 16 days. Her daughter Sarah,
wife of William Hickok nursed her mother
and was thereby able to fulfill her dream
of being a nurse, something her father
had considered "unseemly" for a
proper woman.
