Mrs. Victor M. Sunbury
Lancaster - Mrs. Pearl P. Sunbury, 85, died yesterday at Weeks Memorial
Hospital after a short illness. She was an elementary school teacher here and
in Landaff for many years. Mrs. Sunbury was the widow of Victor M. Sunbury.
She was a native of this community and lived here most of her life. Mrs.
Sunbury was a member of the Christ United Methodist Church, United Methodist
Women, the Perserverence Rebekah Lodge, Mount Prospect Grange, the Northern
Pomona Grange and Lancaster Senior Citizens. The family includes a daughter,
Mrs. Jean Tenney of Lancaster, three grandchildren, nieces and cousins.
Services will be held Thursday afternoon at the Christ United Methodist
church. The Rev. Gerald Dunn, pastor, will officiate. Burial will be in the
Riverside Cemetery, South Lunenbury, Vt. Friends may call at the Batley
Funeral Home tonight. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her
memory to the Christ United Methodist Church of Lancaster or to the Mount
Prospect Grange.

Because she is not mentioned in the obits of Armina, Lula, Victor 'Leon' or
Carl, I do not believe she is the daughter of William and Armina. She also
did not mention a brother Hiram who died after her in 1979.

If anyone knows how she fits into the Rogers family please let me know.
