MRS. JANE M. BALDWIN.
Mrs. Jane M. Baldwin, widow of the
late Thomas S. Baldwin, died at Waynesboro,
Va., on Sunday, July 25, 1909. On
Tuesday following, her body having
been brought to Richmond, was laid to
rest by the side of her husband in Hollywood
after impressive services in her
own loved church (the Grace St. Presbyterian)
conducted by Rev. Dr. James
P. Smith and Rev. Charles R. Stribling.
Mrs. Baldwin was born Dec. 24, 1831,
in Newark, New Jersey, the daughter of
Johnson G. and Jane B. Baldwin. On
the eleventh (11th) day of August, 1852,
she was uappily married to Mr. Thomas
S. Baldwin, formerly of the same place,
but then a resident of Richmond, where
they continued to make their home and
were identified with the city's best interests
until April 27, 1870, when her
husband lost his life in the Capitol Disaster.
Being staunch Presbyterians their
first church connection in Richmond was
placet} with the United Presbyterian
Church, now the Grace Street, under
tne pastoral charge of Dr. Chas. H. Read,
its capacity. For four long years it was
being an honored elder at the time of
his death. During the war the hospitality
of their home was only bounded by
After purchasing a home and removing
to Church Hill their membership was
transferred to the Third Church, where
they both entered heartily into all the
good work of that church, Mr. Baldwin
full at all times with the sick and needy
to all of whom she ministered with un
failing kindness. To the hosnitAln
around her she was a constant visitor
and doubtless many a lonely heart was
cheered by her bright smile and material
help.
' "
H. August 25, 1909.
She was one of the charter members
of the Oakwood Memorial Association.
After the death of Mr. Baldwin and.
the removal to another part of the city
she renewed her membership with the
Grace Street Church. The esteem which
she aarned there, and in which she was
held can not better be described than in
the words of her beloved pastor, Dr.
Withersnnnn "Hno ?? ?v- *
, ui lue iriais tliat
has been mine this summer was my absence
from home at the time and the
consequent prevention from taking part
in the funeral services I can
truly say that in a long pastorate covering
several churches 1 have never had a
parishioner who was more comfort and
joy to me than she was. She was ever
sympathetic and appreciative and her
cheerful, sunshiny temperament made
association with her a peculiar pleasure.
Now that she has gone from us I shall
miss and lament her as the davs wasp
on, I do not love to think of what her
removal means to our church where for
so many years she has stood in her place
and met every responsibility with zeal
and fidelity. To enrich the church above
by her translation our Father lias impoverished
the one church she loved and
served so well."
Next to her devotion to her children,
grandchildren and great grandchildren
and her God and church, the object of
her greatest care and labor was the Retreat
for the Sick. Being one of its organizers
and for a long time its vicepresident,
its interests were ever on her
heart and mind, even during the two
years past when she was practically shut
in by failing health. Mrs. Baldwin is
survived by four children, six grand children
and five great grand children. The
children are Mrs. Chas. D. Larus, of
Richmond- t ..*i? "
