Martha Horseman 
Bath County News-Outlook Thursday, August 24, 1939 
Fall Fatal To Mrs. Martha Horseman 
   Mrs. Martha Horseman, 91 years old, widow of the late J. Will Horseman, 
passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. H. O. Swetnam, in Owingsville 
Saturday, August 19, 1939. 
   Mrs. Horseman's death was the result of a fractured hip sustained late 
on the afternoon of August 18.  Up to that time she had enjoyed her usual 
good health.  Following her fall, Mrs. Horseman sank rapidly. 
   A native of this county, she had passed her entire life in the county, 
having lived the greater part of her life on White Oak until the death of 
her husband in 1925, when she came to Owingsville to make her home with 
her daughter. 
   Surviving her are three daughters, Mrs. Swetnam, Mrs. Lucy Purvis and 
Mrs. Lou Ellen Hedge; fifteen grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren. 
   Funeral services were held at the White Oak Christian church of which 
she was a member for more than half a century.  Interment was in the 
Bailey family graveyard on White Oak. 
   Pall bearers were Herbert Gudgell, Haden Horseman, Ernest Stone, 
Ray Horseman, Clifford Stone and Thomas Craig.
