MARGARET ANN TURNER BRADSHAW

MRS. MARGARET BRADSHAW

Communicated 

   Mrs. Margaret A. Bradshaw, one of the oldest residents of Southampton 
County, departed this life on April 30, 1918, at her home near Black Creek 
Baptist Church.  Services were held at the church and interment was in the 
family burial ground.  The deceased was in her 86th year and her death has 
brought to a close a most useful, consistent Christian life.  Beloved by all 
that knew her, and sadly missed by a sorrowing community.  May her ashes rest 
in peace and her beautiful soul find its fitting reward in a heavenly home 
prepared for the redeemed.  A Godly life is the most appropriate eulogy and 
good deeds left behind the most lasting monument. 

   She left surviving her four sons, J.F. Bradshaw of Franklin, who for years 
has been her faithful attendant, B.W. Bradshaw of Hopewell, C.N. Bradshaw of 
Norfolk, and George L. Bradshaw of Blackstone.
