Individual Details

Mrs. Jeannette D. McConnell, after a long period of frail health, passed away at the home of her son, B.R. McConnell, Tuesday. Funeral services held at the home of Mr. And Mrs. McConnell and interment at Oakwood cemetery. Mrs. McConnell leaves one son – B.R. McConnell, her youngest son, H.H. McConnell, Jr. having died several years ago; and two sisters – Mrs. J.W. Knox and Miss Alice Connor of Jacksboro, all of whom have the sympathy. Mrs. McConnell, with her son, B.R. McConnell, came to Jacksboro in the early 1870s and joined her husband, H.H. McConnell who had preceded her some time then before, and they made Jacksboro their permanent home. She was a woman of culture, of rare ability as a musician, and was acknowledged as a charming and valued acquisition to the church and social life in the town, which position she held for many years. She was a member of the Presbyterian church and very active in all lines of work connected with it. She was better known all over Jack county, perhaps, than any other woman, and many old-time friends will join her family and relatives in their sorrow at her passing away.
