Newspaper Sept. 1950 Edition
OBITUARY
Sena Brickey Mason daughter of the late Mary Jane Greene and Parish Brickey, 
was born in Scott County Va., Oct 13, 1866 and died Sept. 26, 1950 aged 83 
years, 11 months and 13 days.

When a very small girl she came with her parents to Elliott County KY where 
she spent most of her life. April 14 1881 she was married to S.J Mason also a 
resident of Elliott Co. who preceded her in death one son Cornelius, four 
daughters, Mary Gilliam, Jane, Annie, and Ida Mason. 

Surviving her are three sons, Landon and Jesse of Isonville; Math of Roscoe; 
five daughters Caroline Gilliam of Portsmouth O; Jaley Buckner and Eliza 
Phillips of Isonville;  Adline Wheeler of Elfork; and Easter Wheeler of 
Crockett. Also two brothers Rev. J.W. Brickey of Isonville and Martin Brickey 
of Westwood ky; two sisters Polly Fyffe of Isonville and Susan Adkins of 
Reynoldsburg Ohio., and a large number of grandchildren and great-
grandchildren.

She was converted and joined the United Baptist church and was baptized the 
second Saturday in September, 1895, and was a member of Beech Grove Church of 
Isonville.

Most of her life was spent near Isonville ky. For about five years she had 
made her home with her daughter Easter Wheeler of Crockett and was there at 
the time of her death.

She was patient in all her suffering and never complained. She always wanted 
to make it easier for those caring for her. With her passing the children have 
lost a wonderful and loving mother but their loss is heaven’s gain.

Funeral services were conducted at her old home at Isonville Ky., by J.W 
Brickey and Albert Gilliam, assisted by George Gilliam and Shafter Howard. The 
body was laid to rest near the old home with a large crowd attending. Her 
grandsons were pallbearers.
