    In this place on the 15th of November, Mrs. Adeline F. Pinkston, wife of 
G. B. Pinkston and daughter of George and Mary Chatfield. She had been a member 
of the Methodist Episcopal Church for the last nine or ten years, and during 
that time her faith (like gold in the refiners furnace) had been perfecting 
through much tribulation; for seven or eight months immediately preceding her 
death, her suffering had been great and constant, but she was enabled by Divine 
grace to profit by them, and to feel that they were working together for good 
to her, and about two weeks preceding her dissolution (but when it seemed 
instantly impending) told the writer of this notice that she was sensible God 
had afflicted her in mercy, that her affections might be weaned from earth and 
fixed on heavenly objects. She also professed an entire willingness to submit 
to the will of her Heavenly Father either to live or die and be with Jesus, was 
better to than to live and again endure sorrows and contend with the 
temptations of this world. After she had lost the power of articulation, her 
aged father requested her if she felt at peace with God, and willing to die to 
signify it pressing his hand, this she did; and shortly after resigned her life 
into the hands of him who is “the resurrection and the life,” to them that 
believe in him.

**From Helena-Suzanne Shreve, G5Granddaughter of Greenberry & Adeline CHATFILED 
Pinkston through their son Dr. George Wesley & Cleora Camella Josephine DREWRY 
Pinkston to Frances Helena PINKSTON & Dr. John McCrary; Helen McCRARY & Luther 
Hill Randall Sr.; Helen McCrary RANDALL & William Clement Shreve & their son.**


Additional Comments:
I would love to talk to anyone researching any of the above surnames & share 
any information I have (do not have much on Pinkston's b/c Greenberry seems to 
have left Ga. after Adeline died & left grandfather George Wesley to be raised 
by his uncle Dr. John CHATFIELD-any Pinkston info. would be of great help).
