Maines, Eleanor (18 May 1880 - 10 Mar 1927)

Miss Eleanor Maines (Manes?) of Hudson, Wis. passed away March 10, 1927, at a hospital in Minneapolis after an illness of several months. She was born in Neillsville, Clark County, Wis., May 18, 1889, being the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dudley B. Maines. When she was a small child, her parents moved to their farm in Pine Valley, Clark County, west of Black River. During the Spanish-American War in 1898 she was eager to become a nurse and went to Wausau, where she took training for that profession, which she followed the rest of her life, being very successful in her work. She will be well remembered by many people here of middle age. Her father died some years ago; she is survived by her mother, who makes her home at Hudson, three sister, Miss Delphine Maines of Minneapolis, Miss Frances Maines of Spirit Lake, Idaho, and Mrs. B. C. Bunker of Hudson, and one brother, D. B. Maines of Spirit Lake.

Funeral services were held at Hudson and brief services by Rev. Longenecker at Neillsville Cemetery, where burial took place Saturday.
