Inscription: "Wife of D. H. Kemp" - Research Note: Her death certificate names Joel D. Melton, born Stone Co., MO, as her father and Elizabeth Jenkins, born East TN in Sevier Co., TN. She was the first wife of David Hardy Kemp. - Oct. 20, 1910, Thursday, Cassville Republican - Mrs. D. H. Kemp Dead: Wife of Well Known Attorney Passes Away After a Long Illness: Mrs. Minnie M. Kemp, wife of D. H. Kemp, died Sunday morning, Oct. 16, at 4 o'clock a. m., following an illness of several years at the age of 32 years. The funeral was held this afternoon at 2 o'clock from the family residence on Frisco Avenue, conducted by Rev. W. R. Dodd. Interment was made in the Odd Fellows Cemetery. The death of Mrs. Kemp removed from our midst a most devoted wife, mother and friend and during her long illness who was always happy and hopeful. She was not only a member of the church but was a logical consistent Christian. She knew God as her Father and Jesus as her personal friend and Savior. During her long illness she had solved much of the mysteries concerning the Bible and the faith founded upon the teachings. To a friend with whom she was conversing about the mystery of life and death and physical pain and suffering she said "I have thought it all through. I now know what it means where we are told 'whom the Lord loveth he chastiseth' and all things work together for good to those who love the Lord." She wanted to live for the sake of her devoted boy and husband, but was ready to go to be with her heavenly Father if it was his will. In the truest sense her apparent defeat with her fierce battle with death was a most complete victory. Monett Star. - Kemp Plot Stone Death Certificate
