SARAH JOHNSON BARNES FRAZIER

   Mrs. Sarah Frazier, daughter of the late George and Lizzie Adams Johnson, 
died at her home near Sedley where she had lived all of her life on Wednesday, 
July 9, in her ninetieth year.

   Mrs. Frazier was first married to William Barnes who lost his life in the 
War Between the States.  To this union was born one daughter, Mrs. Alex 
Johnson*, who preceded her to the grave many years ago.  In 1885* she was 
married to George Frazier who died July 27, 1919*.  Since that time she had 
made her home alone, never willing to leave the place which had meant so much 
to her through all the days since her childhood.  She was a consistent member 
of Black Creek Baptist Church.

   She is survived by two grandchildren, C.C. Johnson and Mrs. Paul White; and 
two great-grandchildren, Miss Ruth White and Howard White of Norfolk, several 
nieces and nephews and a host of friends.  Funeral services were conducted by 
her Pastor, Rev. R.P. Welch, at the home last Thursday afternoon at three 
o’clock.  Appropriate hymns were sung by the choirs of the local churches.

   The body bearers were: R.L. Johnson, C.B. Owen, Henry Johnson, F.T. 
Hundley, D.L. Tillery, L.L. Bradshaw, J.W. Turner and Hurley Joyner.

   There were many tributes paid in beautiful flowers and interment was made 
in Rosemont Cemetery, Sedley.
