MADISON COUNTY, NC - OBITUARY - Baby Roberts, 19 Jul 1932 ----¤¤¤¤---- Asheville Citizens Newspaper Date: 7-22-1932 Microfilm page 196 A most distressing accident occurred at Worley, N. C., Tuesday when the 6 month old son of Mr. and Mrs. Mitch Roberts of Worley was killed, when his older brother, Woodrow, age 10 or 11 years, stumbled and fell while carrying the infant. The Accident occurred about 6:30 in the evening. It seems that Mrs. Roberts had left the house for the purpose of milking the cows, and had left the baby in charge of Woodrow. He had picked the baby up and started walking across the room, but after walking about five or six steps he stumbled and fell, and when he recovered his balance the baby was dead. Funeral services were to be held at 10:00 A. M. Thursday, at the Crooked Ridge cemetery. ___________________________________________________________________ Copyright.
