92-Year-Old Center Point Woman Dies
Mrs. Catherine Elizabeth Dye, 92, who as a child was behind the lines at the battle of Gettysburg, which was fought near her childhood home in Maryland, died at the home of a daughter, Mrs. James Van Fossen, in Center Point at 2:10 a.m. Friday after an extended illness. She was Center Point's oldest resident.
Mrs. Dye, to whom war was an old story, having seen American boys march off to four conflicts, recalled how her mother used to feed passing Civil war soldiers fresh bread, piping hot, from the oven, and how southern soldiers waited not to be served, but pillaged their home for food.
Born at Hanover, Penn., Aug. 12, 1852, Mrs. Dye moved to Shellsburg at the age of 18 and in 1881 was married to Plimpton Dye. Several years later they moved to Center Point, where her son, William, was born. He fought in the Spanish-American war.
Another son, Clifford was killed in France in 1918, and the Center Point Legion post is name for him. Two grandsons, Carl and Orville Dye of Center Point are fighting in this war.
Her husband and two sons having preceded her in death. Mrs. Dye is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Van Fossen and Mrs. John Baumgartner, and a son, William M. Dye, all of Center Point; five grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
She was a member of the Christian church of Center Point and the American Legion auxillary, and she was a Gold Star mother.
The body will be taken from the Beatty chapel in Cedar Rapids to Center Point, where services will be held at the Christian church at a time to be announced later.
