Jane Witten was born January 27, 1820, and died at the place of her birth, Wittens, Monroe county, Ohio, May 6, 1900. For nearly forty years she was a faithful member of the M.E.church, supporting it willingly and liberally. Her kindness to the sick, the poor and needy was one of the many redeeming traits of her character. She seemed to live for others rather than herself. In her sickness she was resigned to the will of God and said to her friends: “I began the work of preparation, for the life beyond many years ago.” A son, one brother, four sisters and many relatives and friends mourn the loss of this noble woman, but their loss is her gain. R. S. Strahl.
Spouse: John Nicklin Witten 1824–1905 (m. 1855)
