Mrs. Mary Hamilton 1830-1909

Again the death Angel has entered the home and carried away one of the time honored landmarks of Pulaski County in the person of Aunt Mary Hamilton of near Wheeler’s Mill, who died on Friday and was buried at the Hamilton graveyard on Saturday January 9th, 1909.

Mrs. Hamilton was one of the early settlers of Pulaski County and has lived for about fifty years on the farm where she died. Her husband preceded her to the better land many years ago, leaving her with a large family of children, which she reared to man and womanhood and it can truthfully be said that her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren, which are many, go to make up the best citizenship of our County. She had acquired much of this world’s goods and was always kind to those in need; thus one by one we record the passing away of some of the Lord’s chosen people.
