Frances Augusta Witwer, born May 27, 1834, at Williamsville, Erie County, New York, was brought up to womanhood in the City of Williamsville, New York, and was united in marriage to Peter Clark Garret in Jule 1854.  She was an extraordinary woman, of such a lovely character, of such great devotion to her husband and family.  Her life was so remarkably sweet and pure, and she was a very beautiful woman, and was beloved by everybody.  All her brothers and sisters speak of her in an endearing manner, as to her ever kind ways and her goodness in and out of her home.  SHe was remarkably generous, and in the year of 1867 they removed to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where the loving mother of the the above respected family was called away by the grim reaper of death, on October 8, 1870.  She was just in the prime of life; she was much needed by her family, but He that knoweth all things for the best, saw fit to remove her, and she was laid to rest at Cedar Rapids cemetery.  Peter Clark Garret died in February, 1904.
