Atlanta Constitution, 25 May 1896
The Death Roll.

Cumming, Ga., May 24-
In the death of Mrs. Sarah Holbrook, which occurred at her home near here 
Friday night, there passed from earth the oldest white woman in this part of 
north Georgia, she being considerably over 100 years of age.  She has resided 
in one settlement of Forsyth county for over eighty-five yers.  The Indians 
roamed these hills long after she moved into the county.  So sparsely settled 
by white people was the county at that time that Mrs. Holbrook's nearest white 
neighbors were eight and ten miles distant.
