LOCAL AND PERSONAL MATTER

   Mr. Calvin Yaun died at the home of his son, Mr. W. R. Yawn, of near Cox, 
on Monday, the 21st inst, of dropsy, combined with other infirmities produced 
by old age.  Mr. Yaun was 77 years old and leaves a wife and eight children to 
mourn his demise.  Mrs. J. C. Rogers and Mrs S. T. Rogers of Eastman are his 
daughters.  His body was interred at the Brown Cemetery at Chauncey, the 
funeral services being conducted by Rev. B. H. Summer of the Baptist Church, 
of which Mr. Yaun wasa splendid citizen and will be greatly missed in the 
community in which he had so long made his residence.


Additional Comments:
Tad Evans, who grew up around Chauncey stated Cox, was on the Chauncey/McRae 
Highway near the Dodge/Telfair County line.  Cox is name of the family that 
owned the Lumber Mill.  When Lumber disappeared so did the name of Cox, Dodge 
County., Georgia.  It seems like from talking with Tad, lots of the graves 
have disappeared at the Brown Cemetery.  As a young boy he spoke of an area 
that was enclosed by a Iron Medal Fence. Over the years it has also been done 
away with.
