At the time of his death he was eighty-eight years old. The last 59 years of his life were spent in Talbotton. He was for 40 years sexton of the Methodist church and nearly that long Coroner of Talbot County. Uncle Billy was a true Christian – he lived and died in the faith. His form will be missed from the street, church and home, but in the memory of our people he will continue to live. – West Georgia News File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ga/talbot/obits/ob4652burge.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.3 Kb
