Obituary
Sarah Milligan Bond Adams

The following obituary appeared in the 27 Mar 1896 edition
of the Elberton Star newspaper: 

"On last Saturday evening at 4 o'clock Mrs. Allen Adams 
departed this life. Her remains were interred at Concord
cemetery last Sunday at 2 o'clock. She leaves a devoted
husband and seven children and a host of friends to mourn
her loss. She was a consistent member of Concord church,
a true Christian and was loved by all who knew her. We 
have no doubt but what she is better off. Will say weep
not after her, but strive to go to her."
