Ashland Progress
Mrs. Martha Luker died at her home in the Rock Springs community Tuesday, August 
15, at the advanced age of 94 years, 7 months and 3 days. She was a woman of 
remarkable vitality, had always been in almost perfect health, and death came to 
her as a natural consequence of her extreme age. Mrs. Luker formerly lived at 
the old Luker homestead in the eastern part of the county but moved to the Rock 
Spring community a long while ago. We are informed that she had been a member of 
the Baptist church 75 years and was in the constitution of two churches. She was 
the mother of 13 children,7 of whom-six sons and one daughter are still living. 
Her children. grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great grandchildren 
number 119. A great many of these reside in Clay County and form a useful group 
of the county's citizenship.  The deceased was buried in Rock Springs cemetery, 
Thursday, August 17, the funeral services being conducted by her pastor, Rev. S. 
J. Ingram of this city.
