WRENN, Martha- Graveside
services were held Thursday in Buffalo Springs Cemetery for Martha Wrenn,
91, who provided a telephone answering service for the community for years
as a Bell Telephone operator. Miss Martha, as she was called along with
her sister, Miss Jenny, ran the switchboard for the Stanford exchange locating
people anywhere in town when the had calls and creating an early version
of the conference call for chattering teenagers. Miss Jenny, as an operator
in Stanford, was credited with starting the "Number Please?" query familiar
to a generation of telephone users before dials were introduced. The sisters
lived near what is now the Stanford-Lincoln County Industrial Park and
walked to work to the telephone office then above Lincoln County Federal
Savings and Loan Association. Mrs. Ben Gaines said she could recall as
a teenager when Miss Martha would link her and several of her friends together
on one line so they could talk in four-way conversations without leaving
their homes. The Telephone Company now calls such linkups as conference
calls. Mrs. Gaines also recalled how both Miss Martha
and Miss Jenny, who died some years ago, would go out of their normal line
of duties to track down someone who had a call anywhere around town.
Martha Wrenn, who lived on East Main Street in Stanford, died Saturday
at St. Vincent's Hospital in Indianapolis. A relative, Anna Lee Prince,
lives there. She was born May 18, 1895 to John Henry Wrenn. She worked
for the Telephone Company for 42 years before retiring in 1957. She was
a long time member of the Harris Memorial Methodist Church. Rootsweb
