The Pike County Journal
Zebulon, Pike Co., Friday, December 29, 1893

Mrs. Beckham, mother of R.Y. Beckham of this place, and one of Georgia’s noblest women, died at her 
home a few miles south-west of here last Wednesday and was interred at Hebron church on Thursday 
following. Mrs. Beckham was widely known and all regarded her as a model Christian. She has left 
the impress of a noble life on the hearts of the people of this section. Her very presence was a 
benediction.
