April 12, 1858 - Fayetteville [NC] Weekly Observer
DIED.  Near Alfordsville, Robeson County, N.C. on the 1st inst., Mrs. ELIZABETH 
McGIRT, wife of Duncan McGirt; in the 61st year of her age.  She lived a 
consistent Christian life, as a member of the Ashpole Presbyterian Church.  
Forty years she as associated with the people of God, in the church on earth, 
and now it is believed she is experiencing the truth of the blessed promise; 
"Those that are planted in the house of the Lord, shall flourish in the courts 
of out God."  Planted in the house militant, she not doubt flourishes in the 
courts triumphant.  Few aged Christians have died more respected or more 
earnestly lamented by surviving friends. ---Com.

Memory of Elizabeth, wife of Duncan McGirt, who died April 1, 1858, Aged 61 
years."  The proof of her marriage to Duncan McGirt is found in the will of her
