Ohio, April 1931
Mrs. Sophia Pfalzgraf, nee Kilburn was born in Greenup County,
Kentucky, September 11, 1859,
the daughter of John Henry and Maria Sophia Linga Kilburn and passed on to
her reward on April 7, 1931, at the age of 71 years, 6 months and 25 days.
She came to Monroe County, Ohio, at the age of 7 years.
She was united in marriage November 18, 1880 to George Pfalzgraf and to
this union were born six children. Two children preceded her in death,
Matilda, at the age of ten months, and Anna, about 12 years ago. She
leaves to mourn her loss, her husband and four children: Mrs. Louisa
Kahrig,
Mrs. Pauline Bintz and
Mrs. Minnie Bintz, all of Lewisville,
Route 1, and Benjamin of the home;
nineteen grandchildren; four great
grandchildren; two brothers, Henry
and Gus Kilburn, of Lewisville, and

nor named her but to praise her.
Her greatest delight was in making the home beautiful for her husband
and children.
During her illness she was patient and kind to all who ministered unto
her, having a sweet and heavenly smile on her face to the last. She has
gone to rest. She can never return to us, but we can go to her.
