Born September 9, 1862, in Armstrong county, Pennsylvan- ia, the deceased was married to Dr. George Purucker in the lit tle Pennsylvania church where Amelia Earhart's grandfather was pastor. Dr. Purucker prac ticed in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Emsworth, Pa., and in 1910 the couple came west to Med ford because of his broken health. Engaging in nursing for a time after their arrival Mrs. Purucker later opened maternity home which she con ducted for 18 years. It was during this period that her unusual gift for caring for babies came to be known far and wide in this region. She could tell unerringly from what dietary difficulties or illness they suffered. Many of the little ones were cared for without thought , of remuneration, be cause, as Auntie Purucker often said, "I just hate to see babies suffer. Upon her retirement from conducting the maternity home in January, 1939, Auntie Pu rucker figured she had acted as chief assistant to the Jackson county stork exactly 1,800 times, Of these babies, the late Wins ton Mathew, San Francisco at torney, was her first; Loren Ed ward Leach, son of Mr. and Mrs Edward Leach, of route 2, was the last. ' But her restless and bound less energy would not permit complete retirement, and soon Mrs. Purucker had converted the former maternity home Into a boarding house which she con ducted until her last illness.
