She was born in Malaga township, Monroe County, October 6, 1867. Early in life she accepted Jesus Christ as her Savior and became a member of the Evangelical and Reformed Church of Miltonsburg of which she remained a consistent member until her death attending Church services as long as her health permitted her to do so. On December 12, 1889, she was united in marriage with William J. Peters. To this union four children were born: Leroy W. Peters, of Miltonsburg; Edna Landefeld, of Canton, and Luzelda Scarborough, of Woodsfield.A son, Carl A.

Peters, of near Miltonsburg, five grandchildren and seven great grandchildren.Mrs. Peters was the last member of a family of five children born to Frederick and Margarette Zimmerle Hoff. She spent her entire life in Monroe County, was well known and loved by all who knew her. We cherish her memory, her unbound loyalty in ideals, and her faith in Christ Jesus which she lived and manifested in word, thought and deed.
