Death
From the March 9, 1900 Union-Gazette in Corvallis, Oregon:Mrs. Jane Hopper died at the poor farm Feb 26, 1900.
Mrs. Hopper was born in Louisville, Kentucky 86 years ago. She made the trip across the plains in the early fifties, returned East but came again by emigrant train to Oregon. She was the mother of 12 children, most of whom survive her, at least one son and one daughter being in Oregon.
More than 25 years ago she made her grave clothes by hand. She was buried in them on Feb 27, 1900.
For seven years she has not been out of bed for a day. Five of these years, she has been a county charge. She enjoyed her pipe and relished her meals, eating heartily until about a week ago when her appetite failed for the first time since she came to the county farm. She weighed over 200 pounds at the time of her death. Funeral services were conducted by Rev M. M. Waltz and she was buried in Simpson's Chapel Cemetery.
