Description

Photograph of Maude Florence (Lindamood) Funkhouser seated in a chair and wearing a polka-dotted dress and glasses.

The name, "Maud Funkhouser", is written on the glass plate negative of this image.

Maude was one of at least seven children born to Isaac and Mary Susan (Shomo) Lindamood.

Her father was a carpenter, born in Conicville. In the 1900 census, Maude was seventeen and worked as a housekeeper.

She married an older widow in 1904. Benjamin F. Conner (1849-1926) was a farmer and had lost his wife the year before. Maude and Benjamin had two daughters together, Virginia C. and Annie M. They lived on Sperryville Pike outside New Market.

Several years after Benjamin died, Maude married for the second time in 1938. James Monroe Funkhouser (1873-1961) had been a widow for five years when he married Maude. Born in Orkney Springs, his parents were David (1832-1906) and Susan (Barb) (1832-1900) Funkhouser.

Maude is buried by herself in Saint Matthews Cemetery in New Market. Both of her husbands are buried with their first wives.
