The Pike County Journal, Friday, April 1, 1921
Prominent Griffin Citizen, Mr. R. F. Strickland, Dead

Mr. R. F. Strickland, one of the most prominent men 
in Spalding County and of the city of Griffin died at 
his home last Sunday morning at one-thirty.
He was a son of the late Isaac Strickland, of concord, 
and lived in this county until grown, when he moved 
to Griffin, where he has resided since.
He was one of the city's successful men and was 
one of her most prominent merchants.
He married a Miss Emma Head, and to them were 
born several children, all of whom died in infancy 
except one son, who grew to manhood and died 
while attending college in Athens, Ga.
He leaves his wife, a sister-in-law, who has lived 
with the family, together with three brothers, one 
sister and hosts of kindred and friends, to mourn 
his passing.
A good and just man has fallen, a true husband 
is gone, and an honest citizen is no more.
Peace to his ashes and may God rest his soul.


Additional Comments:
Robert was the son of Isaac Strickland and Mary Hartsfield Strickland.
His wife, Emma E Head Strickland, was the daughter of Dr. James Daniel Head 
and Nancy Underwood Head of Butts County.
