''EARLY COUNTRY SETTLER BURIED AT ORD SUNDAY
Elizabeth Jane, second daughter of Sarah and William Erridge, was born at Ramsgate, Kent, England, on October 6, 1858 and died at her home in Ord, Nebraska January 26, 1928 aged 69 years, 3 months and 20 days. She was married to Luke Mattley in Schuyler County, Missouri, August 26, 1875. To this union was born five children, two of whom are deceased. They are Orville who died in infancy, and Mrs. Stella McLain, who died November 19, 1924. Those remaining are Eustice of Burwell, Mrs. Nora Williams of Ansley, and Mrs. Edith Moser of Ord, Nebraska. In the fall of 1877 Mrs. Mattley with her husband came to Valley County as pioneers and established their home on a claim fifteen miles northwest of Ord, where they continued to reside until the death of her husband, which occured on November 10, 1903. Together they had experienced the privations inhirent to pioneer life in this part of Nebraska and had their part in the development of the country. Several years ago Mrs. Mattley removed to Ord, where she had her home at the time of her death. She was well and favorably known as an early settler here and was a good neighor, a devoted mother, loyal to her home and friends. Besides her own family, she is survived by one sister, Mrs. Sarah Sheffield of Los Gatos, California and eighteen grandchildren and four great grandchildren. She also leaves behind a large number of friends and neighbors to mourn her passing. Mrs. Mattley united with the Baptist Church at the age of 16, and ever after lived a consistent Christian life. Funeral services were held from the Methodist church in Ord, Sunday afternoon, Rev. J.A. Moorman being in charge.''

"Ord, the county seat of Valley county, is the terminus of the Grand Island ranch of the U.P. Ry. It is also on the Central City and Burwell branch of the B. & M. R. R. ...... The territory from which the town draws its trade is a great grain producing country. The Myra valley on the west regarded as containing farming land unexcelled for fertility. It is also noted for its picturesque scenery. The public buildings and churches are creditable. ...... one of the most important cities of north Nebraska. The churches are the Presbyterian, Baptist, Methodist and Episcopal. The A.F. & A.M., K. of P and I.O.O.F. have lodges here. The Ord Democrat, the Ord Weekly Quiz and the Nebraska Blizzard are the enterprising newspapers." MY NOTE: Have no idea where I obtained this blurp!
"I would like to show you where grandma Williams lived over by Fort Hartsuff and show you the shcool where she attended which has been made into a little country restaurant named the Country Neighbor--we love showing relatives this place. Then there is your Great Grandma and Pa Mattley graves in Ord I would take you to. (So glad a cousin of mother's showed me these places before they passed on)."
