THE TIDEWATER NEWS – 03-13-1936, P. 1
CHARLES W. VINSON

   Charles W. Vinson, 74 years of age, died at his home in Sebrell Monday 
afternoon following a long illness. He was a native of Hertford County, N.C., 
and had been a resident of Sebrell for the past 26 years where he was a merchant 
and a good citizen. He is survived by his wife and one daughter, Miss Imo 
Vinson, and a number of nieces and nephews.

   He was instrumental in establishing the Sebrell Baptist Church about ten 
years ago, faithful attending its services until it disbanded a few years ago 
when he moved his membership to Courtland Baptist Church.

   The funeral services were held from the home Wednesday afternoon at two 
o’clock by his Pastor, Rev. Floyd P. Davis, assisted by a former pastor, Rev. 
L.F. Paulette of Smithfield. A requested hymn “Never Grow Old” by M.E. Worrell 
of Murfreesboro, N.C., and “Sometime We’ll Understand” by the Baptist Choir were 
sung. The services at the grave in Riverside Cemetery, Courtland, were conducted 
by the Masons of Courtland lodge.

   There was a large attendance and many floral offerings, the casket being 
covered with a pall of roses and lilies. The pallbearers were Carl, Jim and Brac 
Vinson, Glenwood and A.W. Johnson, W.B. Hall, A.E. Briggs and R.R. Reese.

   The relatives from a distance attending the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. A. W. 
Johnson and family, West Norfolk; Mr. and Mrs. Brac Vinson, Portsmouth; Mr. and 
Mrs. Joe Vaughan, Victoria; Mr. and Mrs. Carl Vinson of Weldon, N.C.; Mr. and 
Mrs. Jim Vinson of Ahoskie, Mr. and Mrs. M.E. Worrell of Murfreesboro, N.C.
