Judith Ann Shepherd, daughter of Soloman Shepherd and Nancy (Pate) Shepherd,

Webster circa 1851. She married John Clendening on 13 January 1859 in Audrain
County, Missouri. She married Thomas H. Doling in 1868. She died at age 78
years, 10 months and 28 days on 13 December 1901 in Dell, Benton County,
Missouri, having remarried after John's death. She was buried on 16 December
1901 in the Johnson Cemetery in Benton County, Missouri.
Death of Mrs. Wilson
Died - at Dell, Dec 13, 1901, Juda Ann Wilson, at the age of 75 years and 11
months, after an illness of four days. Her home was in Audrain County, MO. She
had come to stay with her son, J. S. Wilson of Dell this winter, but God saw fit
to call her home. Her funeral was preached Sunday at the Dell church by Rev. W.T.
Swopes to a good congregation, considering the extreme cold weather. Her
relatives from Audrain county were unable to be present. She was buried in the
Johnson cemetery.
The deceased was born in Kentucky Jan. 15, 1823, and came to Ralls county, MO.,
with her father, Salman Shepherd when 12 years old. At the age of 15, she was
married to John Wilson of Audrain county, where she has lived ever since. To
this union was born five children, three sons and two daughters, all living
except one, J. R. Wilson. Mrs. N. T. McGee lives in Ripley county; S. D. Wilson
in Audrain county, Jas. Wilson in Benton county and M. R. Yeager in Monroe
county. Her first husband died in 1857, when she married John Webster. To this
union was born one daughter, Mrs. Lucy See, a resident of Polk county. After the
death of her second husband she was married to John Clendening. To this union
was born one daughter, Mrs. M. B. Berry, now living in Monroe county. Mrs.
Wilson united with the M. E. church about thirty-five years ago, and has lived a
very consistent Christian life ever since. She told her son and his family that
her work on earth was done and fell asleep in that sweet peace that none can
give except Jesus. She will be missed by many, especially her relatives and
neighbors. After the death of her last husband in the army, our deceased sister
said that she felt her mission was to nurse the sick and help the distressed.
She was known as Aunt Juda Wilson. The night was never too dark or stormy for
her to go to the bedside of the sick when she was called. She was always kind
and sweet tempered, and after having fulfilled well her mission on earth she has
been gathered to her reward. Our loss is her gain, but God doeth all things
well.
