She did in Miami, Florida and her body was transported to Georgia for her final resting place in Macedonia Cemetery. Princess Griffin was raised as the daughter of Henry Shep Miles and Mrs. Leila Myers. of Smithville, Georgia. She did of a brain hemorrhage. Martha Myers Faison was born on February 9, 1921 in Smithville, GA. and died on July 27, 1995 in Albany, GA. Martha died of complications associated with adult chickenpox. She became ill while on vacation in Smithville, Ga. Martha Myers Westbrook Faison was the sister of Princess Griffin. Nathaniel Tucker was born on 9/26/1896 and died in 1974. Nathaniel was the spouse of Elnora Tucker. Elnora Tucker was the sibling of Shep Miles and Lizzie Spardling. Lee Myers was the mother of Henry Shep Miles (misspelling of name, should be Myers), Lizzie and Elnora Tucker. My husband is the heir to the late Leila Miles Estate. She died in Americus, Georgia, in the Magnolia Manor. This information was taken from estate documents. Mrs. Leila Miles lived on Main Street in Smithville, GA. until her death at the age of 106. Mrs. Leila Miles was born on November 9, 1894 and died on August 6, 2001. Lee Myers and Leila Miles are two different women. Lee was the daughter-in-law of Lee Myers. Also, further document research shows that Lissie's birth name was Elizabeth. All of the people mentioned are buried in Macedonia. Mr. Shep Miles is buried next to his wife Leila Miles. Mr. (Myers) could not spell so he agreed with the spelling that was repeated back to him(Miles). I also have his old Drivers License and his name is spelled Henry Mize!
