Elizabeth Jane Dilworth married Everhart Hadley on Feb. 28, 1867 in Barry Co., MO. - Jane's Obit: November 20, 1909, Saturday, Cassville Democrat - Mrs. Jane Hadley died at her home in Exeter, Monday, Nov. 15, 1909, at 4 a.m., of heart failure, aged 72 years, 9 months, 4 days. She was born in Tennessee and came to this country when very young with her parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Bradley, old and well known citizens during life. She first married Thos. Dilworth, to whom were born three children, one of whom is living, Mrs. J. A. England of near Butterfield. Mr. Dilworth died and in 1867 or 1868.

Impressive funeral services were conducted at the Exeter Baptist Church Tuesday by Rev. C. M. Smith, after which the remains ere laid to rest in Maple Park Cemetery at that place. She was an every day Christian. The beautifying influences of a pure religion were spread over a life and character as spotless and charming as was ever possessed by any of the noble woman who have lived and died during the ages that are gone. As such a life was a blessing and benefaction to all within the sphere of its influence, so is the death of such a one a public, misfortune, as well as an irreparable loss to the made desolate of their departure. In the presence of such sorrow how cold and impotent are words and how doubly deep would be the grief over the grave, did not the rainbow of Christian hope span the dark gulf between time and eternity, and such pure, bright lives inspire the belief that there is a better world beyond where freed from the corroding cares of earth, the good are re-united "after life's fitful fever." - Asa Chillcut, Dr. Harris and Elias Price were also buried in his grave. He was killed during the Civil War. His stone was at the county court house, featured in a glass counter, but has been reset here in Packwood.
