Obituary	24 Apr 1924	Stanberry, Gentry County, Missouri, USA [4]
	Obituary, Stanberry Headlight: \"Obituary Phetney Walter, daughter of Philip V. and Fannie Walker, was born in Magoopin [Macoupin] county, Ill.. [sic] August 13, 1840, died at the home of her nephew, P. C. Walker in Stanberry, Mo., April 20, 1924, aged 83 years, 6 months and 7 days. She was united in marriage to Wm. P. Sinclair in the spring of 1863. She came to Missouri with her husband, mother and others of the family in the spring of 1865, settling in Gentry county. She spent the rest of her life in this county, with the exception of about two years spent in the southern part of the state. Her husband preceded her in death some thirty years ago, She leaves to mourn her loss two brothers, S.E. Walker of Gentry, Mo. and E. W. Walker of Albany, Mo., and one sister, Mrs. Mary E. Hopkins of Tingley, Iowa, a number of nephews and neices [sic] and a host of friends. Mrs. Sinclair was of a family of twelve children, all of whom preceded her in death except the above named. All that loving hands could do was done to relieve her suffering which for the last two months was almost unendurable. Mrs. Sinclair made no profession but was a firm believer in, and practiced the doctrines of the Church of God, and was always ready to defend the same from the sacred word. She was always ready to contribute in any way possible to relieve those in need and made her friends by her acquaintances. Thus has ended a life that has been an open book to the world and one that has not been filled with false pretentious. We commit her life unto Him who loves us and who will reward every good work. Funeral services were conducted Monday afternoon by Eld. L. I. Rodgers, assisted by Bro. Geo. Rodgers and Bro. Geo. Richards. Burial in the Stanberry cemetery.\"
