Breckinridge News, Cloverport, Ky., February 11, 1891
DEATH NOTICE

     W. R. JONES, before the war, bought the property now the residence of W. H. 
BOWMER, by whom it has been handsomely improved--and afterward moved to Arkansas, 
where he died a few years since.
     This property formerly known as the "little red brick", was then noted as the 
home of two young ladies remarkable for their many traits of character, and in 
whose company the young men delighted to dwell.
     Their mother was Mrs. E.B. (Esther B.) ALLEN, sister of Col. D.R. (David 
Rodman) MURRAY and of Mrs. Elizabeth SEBASTIAN, the latter of whom the last of the 
family, died December 12, 1886.  The daughters were:
Misses E. E. and Laura E. ALLEN, the former of whom became Mrs. T. F. (Thomas 
Frazier) SATTERFIELD, now living on her farm adjoining town; the other Mrs. R. R. 
(Robert R.) PIERCE.  She died suddenly in Louisville December 6, 1874.
