    Mrs. Isaac Shields, living eight miles west of Perry, is very low and is not expected to live.

    Daily Enterprise Times. Friday. 8 May 1903


    Rev. Oglevee, formerly pastor of the Presbyterian church of this city, now in charge of a pastorate at Stroud, O.T. arrived in the city this morning in answer to a telephone message from Mr. Isaac Shields, informing him of the death of his wife and a wish that he take charge of the funeral services. Mr. and Mrs. Shields were earnest members of Rev. Oglevee’s church during his pastorate of over six years in this city, and the christian love existing between pastor and member only grew stronger as the years passed by, and no wonder that the last request of this saintly woman should be that her old pastor come to comfort her loved ones as her spirit, freed from earthly fetters, winged its way through space to the Father’s house where all was in waiting for the redeemed soul.

    Obituary.
    Margaret McCullom was born in County Antrim, Ireland, on April 4, 1836. She was married to Isaac Shields September 17, 1857. They came to America in 1860, and located in Baltimore, Md. From Baltimore, they moved to Iowa. They came to Oklahoma seven years ago and located near Perry. She peacefully passed out of the present on Saturday May 9, 1903. She leaves her beloved husband, five daughters and two sons and twenty-seven grand children to mourn her loss. All the children and fifteen of her grand children were present at the last.

    Mrs. Shields united with the Presbyterian church at the age of eighteen. Her life was spent in the service of her Master. She was a faithful and consistent member of the Presbyterian church to the end. Her life stands as a grand testimony for rightousness. Twenty-two years ago her husband was afflicted with partial paralysis, and for two years she had to feed him with a spoon and all these years she has faithfully ministered unto his wants. She is now at rest with her Lord; we are sometimes in doubt whether or not our friends have made a good exchange of worlds, but in Margaret Shields there is no room for doubt.

    The funeral services on Monday were conducted by Rev. J.A. B. Oglevee who had been her pastor for six years at Perry.
    A large number of sympathizing friends attended these last sad rites.

    Daily Enterprise Times. Tuesday, 12 May 1903


    With sadness we report the death of Mrs. Isaac Shields who lived 9 miles west of this city, last Monday. She was laid to rest in the Polo cemetery Tuesday evening.

    Notes:

    Died In His 60th Year
    John Shields died Friday, April 17, 1925, at his home, 207 North Pearl street, Paola, in his 60th year, following an illness of about four years with anemia. Last summer, Mrs. Shields had a severe attack and his condition was considered serious at that time, however, he gained strength and was apparently better until about four weeks ago when he took the influenza and his body was in too weakened a condition to resist the malady. Born in Mediapolis, Iowa, December 23, 1864, he moved to Lincoln, Nebraska in 1886, and in 1893 moved to Indian Territory. On January 24th, 1894, he was married to Mary Elizabeth Law, at Lincoln, Nebraska, and they lived in the Territory for thirteen years. Later the family came to Miami county in 1906 and settled in Richland township where they lived for six years and then moved to West Valley township, where they lived until February, 1924, at which time they moved to Paola.
    Mr. Shields is survived by his wife and five children – Velma, wife of George Dean, lived in Chicago, Illinois; Reamer L. Shields, of San Francisco, California; Byron Shields, on the home place in West Valley township; Elwood and Dorothy at home. He also leaves four sisters, Mrs. Jas. Tull, Arapahoe, Nebraska; Mrs. J.L. Kirkhart, of Lucian, Oklahoma; Mrs. Jennie Watson, Lucian, Oklahoma; Mrs. Elizabeth Woodside, Denver, Colo. and one brother, William Shields, of Perry, Oklahoma. Reamer, the son in San Francisco, was unable to attend the funeral as he was in a hospital where he had undergone an operation for appendicitis.
    Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at 2:30 from the Presbyterian church, conducted by Rev. Daniels and interment was in the Paola cemetery.
    To the world generally Mr. Shields was a man of high worth, but only to close friends was his true greatness known. The good wife, and the rest of the family, knew his excellence, of course, and so did those outside, who had the opportunity to know him intimately. With his hands he earned ground, and with his hands he made it a home; he married, reared children and gave them schooling, so that to-day they honor their parents, and brighten the name. Not much to do? Yes, more than the victor who taketh a city, more than the conqueror who enslaves and impoverishes, more than the rich who grind the poor. John Shields was an average American, the highest type to-day of the world’s manhood. – The Westenr Spirit. (Paola, Kansas).

She is survived by her daughter Margaret Hugoboom of San Pedro; one son, Clifford Boyd Watson, Inglewood, Colorado; one brother, John McCollum, of Nebraska; two sisters, Catherine Hawkins, of Nebraska and Mrs. Margaret Weaver of Indiana.

    LKH note:
    The 1870, 1880, 1900, 1910 and 1920 census gives Sarah's birth place as Canada.

    Her father's obituary states his arrival from Ireland to Canada and then to the United States in 1864, so it is very likely that Sarah was born in Canada just before their arrival in the United States.

    Her obituary gives birth place as Iowa which would have been where she grew up.

    The death of his father, W.S. Woodside, 97, occurred a month ago on August 21st. His mother passed away in September of 1950.
    Survivors are his wife, Mae; a son, Forrest Jr., of Topeka, Kans.; two grandchildren; a daughter-in-law; two sisters, Eva Woodside of Denver and Mildred Mitchell of Lamar, Colo.
