 WHITTEN, Sarah Dean Spiller 10 Feb 1922, pg 2, col. 4 Sharp County
Record

Mrs. Sarah D. Whitten wife of C.A. Whitten of this place died at the
family residence last Saturday morning at 4:30 after a long illness of
heart trouble. Her remains were interred in the Evening Shade cemetery
on Sunday afternoon, in the presence of a large number of friends and
relatives, with services conducted by Rev. J.B. Finley. Mrs. Whitten
was the daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Scott Spiller and was born near here and
spent her entire lifetime in this community, well know and liked by everybody
with whom she comes in contact. She professed faith in Christ in 1918
and clung to that faith until death released her of her sufferings. Truly a
good wife, mother and friend has gone from among us and to her reward
in a better world. She was forty-six years, five months and one day of
age, and lacked two days of living until her twenty-seventh wedding
anniversary. She was married on February 6, 1895 to Charles Albert
Whitten by whom she is survived. To this union were born six sons and
one daughter, all of whom, but one son still sruvive. They are, Raymond,
Hubert, Virgie, Russel, Harvey and Jack. Besides these, her parents,
one brother and three sisters are left behind.
