Mrs. Rachel Hancock Osteen, relict of the late John Abraham Osteen, died at the home of her youngest daughter, Mrs. George Keith, at Delray, Fla., on Monday the 20th of November. The body was brought to this county and buried in the family lot near her old home at Hollister on Wednesday of last week. The service at the grave was conducted by Rev. P. Q. Cason of the Palatka Baptist church, and before a large gathering of relatives and old neighbors and friends.
Mrs. Osteen, who was in the 85th year of her age, had been in feeble health for nearly six years and some time ago went to live with her son and daughter on the East Coast.
This aged lady had lived in Putnam county and within a few miles of Palatka since before the civil war. Her husband, John A. Osteen was killed by a Florida Southern Railway train near Hollister 28 years ago.
Mrs. Osteen was the mother of nineteen children, eleven of whom are still living, honorable and useful citizens of the state. Her living children are: Mrs. William Wilkinson and J. C. Osteen of Hollister, Mrs. Robert Cribbs of Hawthorne, Mrs. L. W. Myers of Rochelle, D. H. Osteen of Ocala, Mrs. H. M. Moody of Peniel, N. R. Osteen of Ft. Mead, M. O. Osteen of Lotus, Mr. Calvin Thigpin of Miami, Mrs. G. W. Keith of Delray and S. A. Osteen of Lotus.
All but one or two of these children were present at the funeral. (Palatka News Obituary dtd Friday, 1 Dec 1911.)
