Arminta and William Barks

Arminta came west from Missouri and married William Barks in California. Her obituary says:

"...[Mrs. Barks] died a consistent christian. She suffered greatly the last three years
of her life of cancer, of which she died.

The funeral service was held at the Mt. Laki church November 8th. The church was
filled by those desiring to pay a last respect to one who, with her husband, has
so lived as to command the respect and high esteem of their many friends and
acquaintances in a business as well as in a social way."

Strangely, I could find no information about William except that he was born in Missouri. The couple had two sons.
