General Notes: Wife - Agnes Proudfit

---

Known always throughout her large circle of connections as "Aunt Nancy," she was pre-eminently a motherly woman. Her unselfish interest in others and her strong practical sense made her one to whom those needing counsel or sympathy turned naturally. When in charge for a short time of the boarding hall of the Normal School at Edinboro, these qualities made every young person in the hall her personal friend. She was an excellent nurse, and in the days when the professional was unknown outside the large cities, many a neighbor had reason to bless her for willing and efficient aid in sickness. Of uncommonly fine physique, it would seem that she might have retained her bodily activity to the end of even so long a life as hers, had she not broken herself down in the service of others. She was unable to walk without help for more than ten years, but never lost interest in the world outside. Indeed, though her affections were strong, no bereavement or misfortune could permanently cloud her cheerfulness. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church for seventy years. Her married life was spent in Edinboro, Pennsylvania, or within a few miles of that place, until 1867, when Mr. Campbell moved his family to Centerville, St. Joseph County, Michigan. Later they went to Sturgis in the same county, where she died.
