Stephens wend@bellsouth.net July 17, 2004, 9:02 pm Cedartown Standard, June 14, 1900 Annie Miller Jackson, was born in Mississippi on April 21, 1845, and died June 8, 1917. When quite a little girl, her parents moved to Villa Rica, Ga., where at the age of fifteen she was married to Elija Clyatt, who was killed in Virginia while serving in the Confederate Army. At the age of twenty-two she was married to Griffith W. Jones, who preceded her to the better land by ten years. She had made her home at Rockmart since it had been a town until four years ago, when she moved to the country in order to be near her son. She was a member of the Methodist church for 40 years, her membership being at old Van Wert church. While we grieve sorely over her going away, we feel that our loss is her eternal gain. She suffered so intensely that death came as a relief, and she said on the day of her death that she would be glad when the last breath came, for not until then would she get ease. She is survived by two sons, F. L. Clyatt of Houston, Tex., and J. A. Clyatt of Rockmart, and by six grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. The funeral services were conducted Sunday noon by Rev. J. T. Gibson at the Rockmart Cemetery. File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ga/polk/obits/ob5050jackson.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.7 Kb
