Consort of Colonel Henry Norwood, and the daughter of the late Col. George Caperton. Mrs. Norwood has left a disconsolate husband, seven children, and many relatives and friends to mourn her early departure from time to eternity but their loss has, we believe, been her eternal gain. She was a kind neighbor and an affectionate mother, a loving wife, which endeared her to them particularly and general to her relations. But she is gone…. “Beyond the vale of time, Beyond the sleep of death Amid scenes eternal, scenes sublime Her soul has found rest And there amid the glorious throng, She joins a mother-n-father’s song.” File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/al/jackson/obits/n/norwood1965gob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/alfiles/ File size: 1.7 Kb
