ROBERTA HATCHER HENRY

MRS. L. B. HENRY

  Mrs. L.B. Henry  a much-beloved and highly esteemed woman of our town, 
died last Friday, February 18, 1916, after an illness of several months. 
She was in her 37th year and, before her marriage, was Miss Roberta Hatcher 
of Charlotte County*.  She was well known in this county having made her 
home for a number of years with the family of the late Franklin P. Pope of 
Drewryville, and on October 31, 1900, she was married in Clarksbury M.E. 
church to Mr. L.B. Henry, who survived her with one son, Herbert.  She has 
two sisters and a brother living in Arkansas and a sister in this state. 
The deceased was a faithful Christian, a loyal communicant of the Franklin 
Methodist church, a devoted wife and mother and a generous neighbor, and 
the bereaved husband and little son have the deepest sympathy of our 
townspeople in their loss. 

   The burial services were held Saturday afternoon by Rev. R.M. Chandler 
of the Methodist church, assisted by Rev. Francis R. Lee of the Episcopal 
church, the interment being made in Poplar Spring cemetery.  The active 
pallbearers were Harry Steinhardt, J.G. Vann, J.N. Bell, F.E. Howell, Roger 
G. Jones, G.T. Stephenson; honorary J.D. Parker, R.E. L. Watkins, C.A. 
Cutchins, Joe Bynum Gay, J.A. Jackson, J.R. Byrd.

*Additional information: 

No contemporaneous D.Cert. found. 

Her marriage record (Southampton Co. MB10:245) gives b. Mecklenburg Co., 
   daughter of Malicie (Malisia?).  

She appears with the POPE family in the 1900 Census in Drewryville. 

She may be identical with "Albrtia," age 1, daughter of Abner & Milissa HENRY, 
   in the 1880 Census in Hampden Dist., Prince Edward Co. 

This seems to be her parents - 

A.B. Hatcher, 27, b. Mecklenburg Co., sn/o D.B. & L.R. Hatcher, 
m. 29 Dec 1875 in Charlotte Co.
