Horry Herald November 3, 1892
John W. Todd

John W. Todd died at his residence in Horry County, September 21st, 1892, at 
the ripe old age of 70 years one month and two days. Elder Daniel Boyd 
performed the funeral services at the Todd graveyard preaching from Job 15th 
Chapter 14th verse. He leaves a host of relatives and friends to mourn their 
loss, but their loss is his eternal gain. He was a consistent member of the 
Baptist Church, recently at Macedonia. Brother Todd has been afflicted for 
several years at times seemingly near his end, and bore it with patience and 
resignation. On nearing his death he expressed a desire to commune with his 
brethren once more on earth, which he died, and said he felt like praising God 
in the highest.

Bro. Todd in youth made a trip to Alabama but soon returned and married Mary 
Ann Prince, March 28th, 1849, who bore him eight children, five of whom 
preceded him to the eternal world. This wife died Sept. 15th, 1864 and March 
17th, 1866 he married Caroline M. Vaught, who bore him nine children, of whom 
he was the survivor of three. This wife died June 20th, 1880 and on May 29th, 
1883, he again married this time to L. C. Sibett, of Columbus County, N.C., 
the issue of which marriage was two children. She survives him. Bro. Todd by 
his pleasant general manner made many friends and at his decease had not a 
known enemy.
