Mrs. Annie Jerrell Tenney, widow of Charles D. Tennery, LL.D., died in London in October, 1933, at the home of her daughter Ruth.
Mrs. Tenney had made her home in Palo Alto, Calif., since her husband's death, but had been enjoying visits to her two European daughters, Edith, wife of Knud E. Jordan, commissioner of customs in China, but maintaining his home in Copenhagen for part of the year, and Ruth, wife of M. W. Wolfers, a business man of London, formerly of New York.
Mrs. Tenney had been enjoying her usual excellent health until she was stricken with influenza a few days before her death. Her ashes were scattered in "The Garden of Remembrance," a beautiful garden adjoining a London crematory. This would seem a happy substitute for our ever expanding areas of regimented headstones bearing forgotten names.
She is survived by the two daughters above named, and three sons, James B. of Tucson, an engineer connected with the Arizona Bureau of Mines; Albert S., a physician practicing for the past dozen years in East Orange, N. J., and previously for six years in China and six in California, and Raymond P. of Palo Alto, the only unmarried member of the family, formerly in the consular service in China and American judge of the Mixed Court in Shanghai. Does anyone know a more cosmopolitan family?
There are thirteen grandchildren.
