Ashland Progress
The Marvin's Chapel Methodist church on Goodwater, Route 2, has recently been 
bereaved of one of its most faithful members in the home-going of Mrs. Annie 
Phillips. This mother quietly passed away in her fifty-eighth year, September 8, 
1919. Mrs. Phillips was loved and respected by the entire church and community.
She was well connected by birth and marriage, being related to the "Gallant 
Pelham" Alabama beloved soldier boy, and the daughter of Mr. Sam McGehee and his 
wife, Mary McGehee, both of blessed memory, and the widow of the lamented 
Thaxton Phillips. Her father one of Alabama's pioneer settlers. She is survived 
by five children, William and John Clay Phillips, of Atlanta, Ga., Amanda Mae 
and Charlotte Phillips of Chandler Springs, and Miss Otie Phillips of Brownwood, 
Texas, and a host of friends and relatives. The funeral services were held from 
the church and conducted by her pastor, Rev. L. Atkins, of Millerville. and 
remains were laid to rest the side of her beloved husband in the cemetery 
adjoining the churchyard. The pallbearers being ex-soldiers in full uniform were 
Messrs. Will Summers, George Chandler, Namon Hawkins, Whitson Brooks, Claude 
Quarles, Homer Thompson, and Tom Rozelle. Mrs. Phillips was married in Atlanta, 
in 1881, and joined the Church at Marvin's Chapel in 1897. She was a faithful 
wife, a devoted mother, a good neighbor, a loyal friend, an exemplary Christian. 
Her loved ones grieve that they shall see her dear face no more in this world, 
but they sorrow not as those who have no hope. We all do well to remember that 
He who is the "Resurrection and has said: "Because I shall live ye shall live 
also."
