The Madisonian, 26 June 1914
FORMER CITIZEN PASSES AWAY IN ATLANTA
Mr. James M. Few Died Sunday and Remains Interred Here Tuesday.  Nearly Eighty 
Years Old.
     --------
  The remains of Mr. J. M. Few, who died Sunday afternoon at his home, 119 Park 
Avenue, Atlanta, arrived in Madison Tuesday morning at ten o'clock, and were 
buried from the train in the new cemetery.  Rev. J. R. King conducted the 
service at the grave.  Mrs. Broughton, Mrs. Perkins, Mr. Furlow, and Mr. James 
Boughton sang "Abide With Me" and "Shall We Meet."  The pall bearers were 
Messrs. P. M. Atkinson, J. W. and R. S. Douglas, J. H. Hunter, R. U. Thomason 
and Pete Bearden.  There were a number of pretty floral offerings.
  James M. Few was the son of Seaborn and Lucinda Few, and was born just 
outside the coporate limits of Madison nearly eighty years ago.  He lived in 
Madison until about 35 years ago, moving first to South Georgia for several 
years, thence to Atlanta, where he has since lived.  He was married in Augusta, 
and is survived by his wife and three daughters -- Mrs. M. F. Auten, Mrs. Etta 
Hampton, and Miss Lilly Few, all of Atlanta.  Another daughter, Mrs. Nora 
Overby, and two sons, Henry and Frank, are dead.  He also leaves three sisters -
- Mrs. Dick Orr, of this county, Mrs. Fannie Goodman, of Atlanta, and Mrs. Mary 
Dodge, of Iowa.  He had but one brother, Mr. Lucius Few, of this county, who 
died several years ago.
  He never united with any church.  He was a veteran of the Civil War, and an 
upright and highly esteemed man.
