Headstone: "1860 - 1928" Shares a stone with Albert W. Ainsworth.
Plot: 382
Born: July 1860
Died: Jan. 17, 1928
Age: 68 y's.
Note: Mrs. A. W. Ainsworth, Carbon County Old Timer, Called by T.H. Butler - The death of Mrs. A. W. Ainsworth at the Hanna Hospital, on January 17th at 1:00 A. M. records the passing of another pioneer of Carbon County. Mrs. Ainsworth was born in Hamburg, Germany, in July 1860, and journeyed to this country with her parents. The family settled in the town of Denison, Iowa, where she met and married Albert William Ainsworth, in the year 1885. Leaving the old home in Iowa, Mr. and Mrs. Ainsworth answered the call for the west and located at the little station of Percy on the old line of the Union Pacific Railroad in the year 1886, where they made their home for one year, from which place they departed for Gold Hill, at the commencement of the gold boom. After a few months residence at Gold Hill they moved to Saratoga Wyo., where Mr. Ainsworth conducted the mail and stage line between Saratoga's and French, and the tie camps. In December, 1915, Mr. and Mrs. Ainsworth and family moved to Hanna, where they have since made their home. Mrs. Elizabeth Boock Ainsworth was of a kind and loving disposition and her unselfish devotion to her family and friends won the admiration, love and respect of all who knew her. She was a faithful member of the Methodist Episcopal Church of Hanna. She made work a little easier, and life more pleasant for all with whom she came in contact, and it can truly be said of her that the community is the better for her having lived in it. Funeral services were held at the Methodist Church on January 19th, where Rev. J. M. Johnson was assisted by Rev. C. Absher of Rawlins. Interment was made in the Hanna Cemetery. The love and esteem in which the deceased was held was evidenced by the many floral offerings and the large concourse of relatives and friend that attended the obsequies. Deceased leaves to mourn her departure, her husband, A. W. Ainsworth; one brother, Fred Boock; a daughter Mrs. Joseph Briggs, all of Hanna; one daughter, Mrs. Mark Crawford, of Wasco, California, and three sons, Roy Ainsworth of Los Angeles, California; George Ainsworth, of Leo Wyoming and Charles Ainsworth of Hanna. The heartfelt sympathy of the entire community goes out to the sorrowing relatives in this their time of sorrow and trouble. (UPCCEM, March 1928)
