Carnesville Herald - May 13, 1941
One of the most widely known and highly respected citizens of Franklin county 
____ to his reward Wednesday morning, March 12th, in the death of MR. JOSEPH 
EDWIN HUBBARD.  Death came to him at the Crawford Long hospital in Atlanta, 
during the early morning hours after an illness of 10 days of kidney trouble.
    Born in Hart County 74 years ago, Mr. Hubbard moved to Franklin in early 
life, where he has been prominently identified with the political, civic and 
religious life of the county.  He was elected for four terms to the office of 
Tax Collector and no more accommodating or kindly man ever held this office.  
He was honest to a fault, kind and considerate to every one and rendered to 
his friends a superb loyalty.
    Mr. Hubbard was a devoted Christian, being a member of the Cross Roads 
Bapt. Church, which he served as a deacon for many years as well as taking 
active parts in all church and Sunday School activities.  Truly it can be said 
a good man has gone to meet his last recompense of reward.
    Funeral services were held today (Thursday) at the Cross Roads Church, 
Carnesville, at 3 o'clock with Rev. A. W. Bussey and Rev. E. H. Collins 
officiating.  Interment followed in the churchyard cemetery with a large 
concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends attending to pay tribute to the 
memory of this beloved citizen.
    He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Leila Aderhold Hubbard; 9 children, Mrs. 
W. C. McMurry, Mrs. L. W. Harber, Mrs. S. L. Williams, Misses Bertha, Marion 
Lenora, Evelyn, Ruby Lois and Mr. Edwin Hubbard.  12 grandchildren and 7 great 
grandchildren and many other relatives also survive.
    B. D. Ginn, funeral director.
