ROSA CARR UMPHLET [sic; UMPHLETT] 

   Mrs. Rosa Umphlet, wife of W.W. Umphlet of this community, died at her home 
February 11, in the 42nd year of her life.  She is survived by her husband; 
five children; a brother, J.C. Carr of the Franklin community; two half-
brothers, Willie Joyner of Suffolk and Solomon Joyner of Petersburg, and one 
half-sister, Mrs. Lizzie Dalton of Petersburg.

   Mrs. Umphlet was a loyal and consistent member of Union Christian Church, 
and a faithful and self-sacrificing wife and mother.  Interment was made in 
Beaver Dam Cemetery, amid a profusion of beautiful floral tributes, the love 
of flowers being one of the distinguishing characteristics in the home.  The 
pallbearers were: R.C. Councill, B. Drake, C.J. Joyner, C.T. Turner, Robert 
Blythe and A.J. Scott.

*Her D.Cert. 5457 (Franklin #9) gives age 41, but miscalculates birthdate 
   as 1 Nov 1879. 

The 1900 Census (Windsor Dist. {#17}, IoW.Co.) gives b. Feb 1891. 

She m. 29 Jan 1912, in Halifax, NC. 

The 1920 Census shows the couple at Williams Xrds (Franklin Dist. {#212}, 
   Southampton Co.), with 4 children. 

Her parents, Solomon CARR & Hattie E. ALLEN, m. 5 Sep 1889. 
   (IoW.Co. M.Reg. {BVS copy} p. 198 #22) 

Widowed, her mother - a native of Crawford Co., PA, 2m. W. Irvin JOYNER, 
   19 Feb 1895.  (IoW.Co. M.Reg. {BVS copy} p. 222 #8) 

However, the D.Certs. of some of Irvin & Hattie's children say that 
   Hattie was b. in Wisconsin - specifically Eagle Rock, in one instance.
