from The Pittsburgh Gazette dated Friday, March 14, 1902 (page 6):
 
Mrs Nancy ANDERSON ASDALE, 84 years old, a member of one of the
pioneer families in this section, died yesterday at the home of her
son, Dr W J ASDALE, No. 5523 Ellsworth avenue, East End, of grip
complicated with the infirmities of old age. Mrs ASDALE was a native
of County Down, Ireland, and with her parents came to Beaver county in
1818, where her father, John CONNELL, died in 1861. Mrs ASDALE was
married twice and is survived by two sons, Dr ASDALE, with whom she
lived for the past 25 years, and Alexander ASDALE of Beaver. Mrs
ASDALE was for many years a member of the Fourth Presbyterian church.
 
 
from the City of Pittsburgh Death Records:
 
Nancy ANDERSON, age about 84 years, widowed, housekeeper, died March
13, 1902, of la grippe; daughter of John and Jane CONNELL, both of
Ireland; born in Ireland; lived at 5523 Ellsworth; burial in Homewood
Cemetery on March 15, 1902.
 
 
A check of the census records finds that Nancy CONNELL was first
married to Alexander ASDALE (who died in 1860) and then to Benoni
ANDERSON (who died in the 1870s).
 
A plot in the name of ASDALE & CONNELL (Section 10, Lot 115) is noted
at Homewood Cemetery.
