From the Livonia Gazette, 9 December 1927 Hemlock - Death has again visited our little hamlet, removing Mrs. Jennie Doolittle Briggs early last Wednesday morning, after a long illness. Mrs. Briggs was born in Canadice May 8, 1877, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Doolittle. She was united in marriage to George Briggs on March 30, 1898, at the Doolittle homestead. The union was blessed with three children, one being taken away in infancy. The surviving members of the family are her husband; a daughter, Mrs. Emma Covey of Rochester, and a son, Ralph Briggs; also two grandchildren; one sister, Mrs. Willard Caskey; a brother, Claude Doolittle; three nieces and five nephews. Father, mother and daughter have all died within the last few months. Although Mrs. Briggs has been in failing health for several years, she never failed to meet one with a smile and we will long remember her for that and her sweet patience. The husband and children have our deep sympathy in their loss. The funeral services were held from her home at 2 p.m. Saturday, conducted by the Rev. G. H. Nelson, pastor of the M. E. church, of which Mrs. Briggs was and the members of her family are members. Interment was in the Curtis cemetery.
