Alexander City Outlook
Deacon Marion Nelson was born July 24, 1840, was married to Martha Champion, 
March 17, 1858. To this union ten children were born eight boys and two girls. 
He joined the Primitive Baptist church in Tallapoosa County. Ala. He was 
baptized by Elder Bob Carlisle. He was also in the constitution of the Valley 
Grove church in Tallapoosa County, Alabama, on October 13, 1873. His qualities 
as a consistent Baptist, with never tiring disposition to help the dear children 
of God to keep house for the Lord, led the brethren and sisters of his church to 
select him for their deacon. He leaves five sons, two girls and a loving wife, 
who is a mother in Isarael, together with all lovers of truth and right living 
who knew him to mourn his passing away, which occurred May 30, 1920, at the age 
of 79 years, 10 months. 6 days. While he sleeps, we trust in God for the coming 
of His dear Son when they that are dead shall hear His voice and come forth 
fashioned like unto the glorious body of Christ Jesus our Lord. Signed J.D. 
Smith, T. B. Jaryis, R. K. Truitt, Committee
