PATTIE S. LAWRENCE JONES

   Pattie S. Jones died at her residence in North Main Street early Monday 
morning, September 22, in the 76th year of her life.  She was a native of 
Nansemond County, a daughter of the late Joseph John Lawrence and Mrs. Mary 
Holland Lawrence of South Quay, and was the last member of a large family of 
brothers and sisters.  In 1877 she was married to F.M. Jones, a son of 
Adolphus Jones of Nansemond County, who died in 1889.  In 1900 Mrs. Jones 
moved to Franklin where she made her home, being an invalid during the last 
six years of her life.

   Since her early youth she had been connected with the Baptist Church, first 
at South Quay and later joining the Franklin Baptist Church.  She was known 
and loved as an exemplary Christian woman, a devoted mother, a loving and 
faithful friend.  She is survived by two sons, Alvah H. Jones and Wayland F. 
Jones; one daughter, Mrs. T.A. Vaughan, and an adopted daughter, Mrs. Gertrude 
Atkinson, all of Franklin, besides many relatives and friends in the town and 
community.

   Funeral services were conducted from her late residence Tuesday morning at 
11 o’clock by Rev. L.F. Paulette of Smithfield and interment followed in 
Poplar Spring Cemetery.  The active pallbearers were: Harry Steinhardt, W.H. 
Jones, Willie Rawls, W.H. Lankford, W.A. Jones, Geo. R. Hayes, Joe Bynum Gay
