      The Wheeler Times - February 8, 1934
      Following several months of ill health, terminating in a fatal illness of three weeks duration, Mrs. Louisa Eleanor McCuistion passed away Monday, Feb. 5, at the home of her daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. J.A. Callan, in Wheeler, Texas, where she made her home for the past three years.
      Louisa Eleanor Cox was born in McClelland County, Texas, on April 12, 1859, and was therefore 74 years, nine months and 24 days old at the time of her death.
      She was married on Feb. 3, 1874, to John Clayton McCuistion, who preceded her in death April 18, 1911. To this union were born nine girls, eight of whom are living, and three boys, of whom one survives. One boy and one girl died in infancy; the other boy died after reaching manhood.
      Mrs. McCuistion had lived a faithful Christian life since the age of 11, when she was converted and joined the Methodist church, in which she had been a loyal member.
      Surviving children are Mrs. Eliza T. Callan, Mrs. Mary E. Gibbins; Wheeler; Mrs. Cora E. Bentley, Canadian; Johnnie McCuistion, Sayre, Okla.; Mrs. Verdie Nix, El Paso; Mrs. Bertha Bryant, Mrs. Laura Hawarth, San Diego, Calif.; Mrs. Annie Scott, Los Banos, Calif.; Mrs. Louisa Miller, Sweetwater, Okla.
      Two brothers, Tom and Sowell Cox of Bosque County, two sisters, Mrs. Bell Turner, Bosque County, Mrs. Laura Sowell, Hico, Texas, and 57 grandchildren and 30 great-grandchildren, also are left to mourn.
