Cedartown Standard, October 10, 1901
Another of Cedartown’s oldest citizens has gone to his long reward. Mr. J. D. 
Enlow—or "Judge" Enlow, as he was generally called—passed away at 8 o’clock 
Monday evening, in the seventy-ninth year of his age. Mr. Enlow was born in 
Brandenburg, Ky., seventy-eight years ago last August, and spent his young 
manhood there. He went with the Kentucky troops to the war, and was a gallant 
soldier of the Confederacy, serving thoughout the war. He lost a part of his 
right hand in the terrible battle of Spottsylvania Court House. After the war 
he returned to Kentucky, and was united in marriage in 1865 with Miss Gladden, 
who has been to him a faithful and loving helpmeet. They went to Cartersville, 
Ga., immediately after their marriage, and after living there about seven 
years, came to Cedartown, and this has been their home ever since. Mr. Enlow 
united with the Presbyterian church while living in Cartersville, and has been 
an active and earnest member of that church, being especially useful in the 
work of the Sunday School. He was very fond of children and flowers, having a 
kind word and smile for every child and being a great admirer of the beauties 
of nature. Mr. Enlow was esteemed by all who knew him and the Presbyterian 
church was filled at 3 o’clock Tuesday afternoon by a concourse of friends to 
pay their last tribute to his memory. A large number of Confederate veterans 
attended in a body to render parting honors to their old comrade in arms. The 
funeral services were conducted by Rev. F. L. McFadden, assisted by Rev. C. K. 
Henderson and Rev. T. R. McCarty and the remains were taken to the city 
cemetery for interment.
