Text	Although she had been in a feeble condition for many months the announcement of the sudden death of Mrs. Elizabeth HASLER last Saturday afternoon came as a surprise to the community. She was one of the pioneer citizens of Greene county and commanded the highest respect of all who formed her acquaintance. Her maiden name was STUCKIE and she was born at Aarmuhlen, Switzerland, August 27, 1822; died at Bloomfield, May 11, 1907; Aged eighty-four years, eight months and fourteen days. At the age of eleven she, with her parents, three brothers and three sisters came to America and settled in Ohio. There they resided for some time. Their next move was to Richland county, Illinois. In 1845 she was united in marriage to Peter HASLER and they moved to this county, which continued to be her home till death, a period of more than sixty years. To this union were born fourteen children, ten of whom-four sons and six daughters-are still living while three sons and one daughter prereceded their mother in death. Upwards of twenty-seven years ago, her husband passed away. On the first day of September, 1822, she received the ordinance of baptism and when still quite young she united with the German Evangelical church, and tto the end of her life remained a steadfast and devoted Christian. Her last illness was long and painful but she bore it with patience, her faith in the Master being such that she believed all things work out for good to them that love the Lord." She is survived by ten children, thirty-three grand children and fourteen great grand children, besides a host of other relatives and friends. The funeral services were held from the residence on South Franklin street Monday morning at 9:30, conducted by the Rev. W. H. WYLIE, and the remains were taken to Taylor township and laid to rest in the German cemetery. - The Death Records of Greene County, Indiana, Book H-6, Page 23, lists Elizabeth HASLER's father as Nickles STUCKIE Cemeteries of Eastern Greene County, Indiana, 1994, G.C.H.S., Page 195, DUTCH/HASLER CEMETERY lists her as Elizabeth STUCKY HASLER.
