Obituary of Joe Judkins, Lawrence Co, AR *********************************************************** Submitted by: Regina Creekmore Weaver Date: 5 Aug 2001 Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm *********************************************************** Here are some more of the obits from a scrapbook of a lady (a distant cousin) that lived in the Jesup, Lawrence County area of Arkansas already. Remember that the problem with these is that there are very few actual dates given for the dates of death, and there are no newspaper names written beside them. What I do know I've listed, and what was penciled in on the obit, I've included. If you find someone that is attached to you, please let me know, and I will try and see if I can find any other information for you, such as date of death if you don't have it, and possibly a newspaper name, also. Dies Following Illness of Several Years Death came to Joe Hardy Judkins, aged 47, at his home at Black Rock Tuesday at noon following an illness of 12 or 14 years. He was a highly respected citizen of that community and is survived by his widow and mother, Mrs. Sallie Dungan; one sister, Mrs. Pearl Spades of Black Rock, and one half-sister, Mrs. Bertie Logan of Alicia. Funeral services were held at the Methodist church at Black Rock Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock, conducted by the Rev. C.E. Gray, pastor, and interment followed in the Black Rock cemetery under direction of the Johnson Undertaking Company of Walnut Ridge.
