Aged Lady Died Last Friday Morning
	Mrs. J.G. Tomlinson died last Friday morning at 2:45 o’clock.  The cause 
of her death was infirmatives of old age.  She was 80 years of age and the 
mother of five children, as follows:  Mrs. Lizzie Crews, of Florida; Mr. J.D. 
Tomlinson, Mrs. Lula Ponsell, of Louisiana, Mrs. C.A. Tomlinson.
	Her husband, Mr. J.G. Tomlinson, who is still living, and Mrs. 
Tomlinson, have been living in Nashville for about eight years, having moved 
here from Willacoochee.  This couple have been married for fifty-six years, 
having married in 1856.  Mrs. Tomlinson was a member of the Methodist Church and 
a good Christian woman.  She was loved by all her neighbors and her death is 
mourned by many sorrowing friends.
	She was laid to rest at the Nashville cemetery Saturday morning, her 
funeral being conducted by Rev. W.M. Haywood.
[Compiler’s note:  There are two major errors in this obituary:  It states five 
children but then lists only four.  If the 56 years of marriage is correct, the 
year of marriage would have been 1867, not 1856.]
