  Adams NY Jefferson County Journal - 4/30/1924 —Mrs. Ethel Caulkins Bilkey, wife of Supervisor Geo. H. Bilkey, passed away at her home in this village Saturday morning, April 25, after, an illness covering a period of more than a year during which time she had beeh a very patient sufferer. Mrs. Bilkey was born in Lorraine, May 18 1892, the daughter of Everett N. and Martha Moore Caulkins. She had spent practically all of her life here, being educated in the local school, later attending Adams High school, of which she was a graduate with the class of 1918. From that time until about two years ago she taught school, teaching the greater part of the time in our village school. On June 28. 1916, she was married to George Bilkey, one child being born to this union, Arlene Jessie, who is about a year and a half old. Mrs. Bilkey's death is a distinct loss, not only to her family but to the com- munity in general, as she was a very energetic worker in all the local organizations to which she belonged. She was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church and Lorraine Grange. The funeral was held from her late home Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Rev. E. J. Lewis of Adams officiating. The high esteem in which she was held was evident from the large number of relatives and friends who gathered to pay their last re- spects. The floral offerings were numerous and beautiful. She was laid to rest in Rural cemetery, Ad- ams. Besides her husband and daughter, Mrs. Bilkey is survived by her father, E. N. Caulkins, and bro- ther, Ross W. Caulkins, both of Lor- raine.
