The Cherokee Advance [Canton, GA]    Friday  1 April 1887 p 3
Samuel Pasco, of Cross Roads district, this county, was buried near his late 
home last Monday. He was familiarly known as "Uncle Sammie," and was one of 
Cherokee's oldest, best and most respected citizens. He was an Englishman and 
came here from "across the sea" many years ago, when the gold excitement was so 
high, and for many years worked the mineral interest of the county and amassed 
considerable property thereby. The Pasco mine, now operated upon by the Franklin 
& McDonald gold mining company, near Ophir, in this county, was for many years 
successfully worked by "Uncle Sammie." He was some seventy years or more of age, 
but had only a few relatives in this country. His wife preceded him to the grave 
some years ago. He was a useful and honored member of the masonic lodge, and was 
buried by that fraternity. We tender our sympathies to the bereaved in the death 
of "Uncle Sammie," one of Cherokee's best citizens.
