Ann Catherine Philbrick

Ann Catharine, wife of Harrison Philbrick died June 11 at the home of her daughter, Mrs. A.T. Whittemore, in Concord. Mrs. Philbrick was born September 20, 1825 at Weare, and was one of the large family of Elijah and Eunice Dow, who were members of the religious sect called Friends of the Quakers.

In 1852 she married Harrison Philbrick, who survives her after a married life of over 50 years. A little over thirty years ago they moved to this town where they have since resided.

No eulogy is necessary, as those who were her friends and neighbors knew her best and will long remember her kind words and deeds.

The funeral was at her late home Friday and was conducted by the Rev. D.C. Knowles, a friend of the family for many years, assisted by Rev. Mr. Wolcott, with interment at Pleasant Valley. She was a consistent member of the M.E. Church and her religion was exemplified in her everyday life. Of such it is written: "Her children shall rise up and call her blessed." >The Plymouth Record, June 21, 1902.
