Walnut Valley Times January 9, 1914
Mrs. George Lewis, 54, died at 6:30 p.m. Monday at her home, 604 Vine street, 
after an illness from pneumonia. She had been sick since Thanksgiving but her 
condition was not considered serious.

Mary V. Colyar was born in Missouri, near the Iowa line, January 7, 1859. With 
her parents Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Colyar, now of El Dorado, she moved to Neosho 
county in 1873. In 1880 she was married to George Lewis at Iola. After living 
at Chanute they moved to El Dorado in 1887, making their home here since. Mrs. 
Lewis was a charter member of the Royal Neighbors lodge in El Dorado and a 
member of the Baptist church. She was well known and well liked in El Dorado, a 
wide circle of friends mourning her death.

She is survived by her husband, parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Colyar, of El 
Dorado, one son; four brothers, John Colyar of Oklahoma; Will Colyar, of 
Emporia; Julian Colyar, of Utah, and George Colyar, of Neodesha; two sisters, 
Mrs. Laura M. Jay of Fort Scott, and Mrs. Francis M. Smith of Shaw, Kans.

No arrangements have been made for the funeral. Telegrams were sent to 
relatives and some of them are expected for the funeral.
