OBIT of MARTHA ELIZABETH SMITH - Mecklenburg Co., Va. Source: The Richmond Enquirer Richmond, Virginia, Thursday Feb 11, 1841 Departed this life on Friday, the 22nd of January, at the residence of her father, Mrs. Martha Elizabeth, wife of Mr. James Smith, and only child of William Baptist, Esq., of Mecklenburg county--leaving an infant a week old. In the death of this amiable and excellent lady, the loss of one is to be lamented, who was exemplary in all the relations of life. She has left many friends and relations who doubtless mingle their sympathies and sorrows with those and those of an afflicted and distressed father and mother and a disconsolate husband, in deploring this their heavy and irreparable loss, who hope that she now rests on the bosom of God. -- End File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by JoLee Spears 1997 USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free information on the Internet, data may be freely used by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
