Notes for NANCY UNDERWOOD:
The Christian Index - Mercer Univ.Library - April 26, 1894 NANCY
UNDERWOOD BRYAN - Mrs. Nancy Bryan, wife of the late Sebron C.
Bryan of Marshallville, Ga. died March 14, 1894. She was born
November 11, 1814 and though she was nearing her four score years,
she had never had a serious spell of sickness before. She had
typhoid pneumonia, and was sick four weeks, and though she
suffered much, she bore her suffering with great Christian
fortitude and was ever thoughtful for those who were nursing her;
she seemed to realize she was going and was resigned to the Lord's
will. She raised eight children to be grown, but husband and all
her children but one had "passed over the river" before her.
Though she had much trouble, she was always bright and cheerful
and could always find a "silver lining" to every cloud. The poor
and needy always found in her a friend and she did much good in a
quiet way. She leaves one daughter and many grandchildren and
great-grandchildren to mourn their loss, and may the dear Lord
sanctify her life and death to their good, and may they bow in
humble submission to His will and try to feel that "He doeth all
things well."
