Stephens wend@bellsouth.net July 11, 2004, 7:08 pm Cedartown Standard, August 8, 1901 Mrs. J. A. Peek passed away at 2 o,clock this morning, after weeks of suffering from the dread disease of cancer. She has been one of Cedartown,s most highly esteemed ladies, and her death in the prime of womanhood is deeply mourned by a large circle of relatives and friends. As Miss Lula Harris, a daughter of Mr. P. C. Harris, she was one of the most popular young ladies of this section, and as the wife of Capt. J. A. Peek she has been one of our most lovely and lovable matrons. A devoted husband and two bright children~Winfrey and Mattie~are left to mourn the loss of loving wife and mother, and the entire community sympathizes with them and the entire family circle in their bereavement. Mrs. Peek was forty three years of age, and is cut off in the height of her usefulness in her home and the community. She was a member of the Methodist church, and was active in the missionary and other work of the church. Funeral services will be conducted at the residence tomorrow morning. A good woman has "fallen on sleep," and the people mourn her loss.(Cedartown Standard, August 8, 1901) File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ga/polk/obits/ob4869peek.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.7 Kb
