Obituary:  Lena Myrtle (STRAUB) CELLAR (1876-1963)
From a photocopy of a newspaper clipping mailed to me by my mother many years ago.  The source and date were not noted, but it was probably a Jacksonville, Florida, newspaper on 20 Mar 1963 (Lena died 19 Mar 1963).  Boldface/color added.
Mrs. Lena Cellar Dies in Hospital; Funeral Tomorrow

Mrs. Lena Myrtle Cellar, widow of O. G. CELLAR who was a traveling tariff inspector of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, died yesterday at a local hospital following a lengthy illness.

Mrs. Cellar, who lived at 3903 Ionic Ave., was born in Florida and had lived in Jacksonville 50 years.  She was a member of the Murray Hill Presbyterian Church and previously had been a member of the Springfield Presbyterian Church.

Survivors include a daughter, Mrs. Donald McLean of Jacksonville; three sons, A. Eugene Cellar, George G. Cellar and William O. Cellar, all of Jacksonville; a sister, Mrs. W. J. PETERS of Lake Worth [Florida]; a brother, Albert Straub of Oakland, Calif.; nine grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.

Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. tomorrow in the Estes-Krauss Funeral Home with Rev. Vance A. Gordan, pastor of the Murray Hill Presbyterian Church, officiating. Burial will be in Riverside Memorial Park Cemetery.

Transcriber's Notes:

O.G. Cellar is Oliver Gray Cellar.  Their address was 2903 Ionic Ave., not 3903.  Lena was born in Ohio, not Florida.  Mrs. Donald McLean is Lena's daughter, Mary Elizabeth Cellar.  Lena's sister, Mrs. William J. Peters, was Josephine Elizabeth Straub.  Albert Straub was "of San Jose," not Oakland.  It was Lena's late brother, William Barton Straub, who was "of Oakland."
