Joseph Christeson d. May 7, 1904

Special thanks to Mike Christeson of Little Rock, Arkansas for sharing this obituary.

Joseph Christeson died at his home last Saturday of a complication of diseases. He had been an invalid for four or five years, but had not been confined to his bed but about three months, and though a great sufferer he bore it all very patiently. By his death, our neighborhood has lost one it’s most highly esteemed citizens, who was well beloved by all. Funeral services were held at Friendship church Sunday, conducted by his pastor Rev. Newton Manes. Interment was made in Friendship cemetery.

Editor’s note: This was published in the Pulaski County Democrat May 13, 1904. This would make the date of Joseph’s death May 7, 1904.
