Funeral Services Held for Pioneer Polk County Woman

Mrs. Annie Harriett Burdett, 72, died Friday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. 
George Kennedy, at Fitzgerald, Ga.  Her remains were brought here Sunday for 
interment in Greenwood cemetery.  Services were held at the graveside by Rev. 
G W Smith, pastor of Pooltown Baptist Church, assisted by Rev. Linder.  Mrs. 
Burdett spent the greater portion of her life in Polk county and was one of 
the seven to constitute the Pooltown church 52 years ago.  She lived a long 
and useful life. 

Mrs. Burdett will be remembered as the widow of the late J. A. Burdett, a 
prominent citizen, who preceded her in death several years ago.  In addition 
to her daughter, Mrs. G. L. Kennedy, of Fitzgerald, she is survived by two 
sons, Otis H. Burdett of Atlanta, and E. L. Burdett of Birmingham, and by a 
nephew (whom she reared) Ed Mitchell of Atlanta. 

Those from out of town here to attend the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. Ed 
Mitchell of Atlanta; Miss Cora Whitten and John Whitten of Buchanan, and 
thirteen grandchildren from atlanta and Fitzgerald, and six great grand 
children.  Her grandsons acted as pall bearers.
