Pickett -- At her home near Bloomingdale, Indiana, November 11, 1930 after years of failing health, Asenath Pickett, aged 92 years and six months. Impressive funeral services were held from the residence with the pastor, Lyman G. Cosand, in charge. Three sons: John H. Pickett, Little Rock, Arkansas; Arthur Pickett, Bloomingdale; and Nathan Pickett, Knoxville, Tennessee; and two daughters: Flora Mills Morris, and Mary Pickett, on furlough from the Friends Mission in Mexico, survive. While health permitted she was faithful in attendance at both the Bible school and meeting for worship, and never lost her interest in the work of her church. She filled many places of responsibility in her meeting, and was a charter member of the missionary society when it was first organized at Bloomingdale nearly fifty years ago.1
