Her obituary from The Jacksonville Republican newspaper, dated Saturday, JANUARY 3, 1885
DEATH OF MRS. J.H. PRIVETT
Mrs. Privett, wife of Mr. J.H. Privett, living two miles south of Jacksonville,
died at the residence of her husband, surruounded by her children, last
Thursday. The Sunday before she was in Jacksonville visiting a daughter-in-
law. Although her health ahd not been good for years, her last illness was
very sudden and the annoucement of her death came with a painful shock to our
entire community. She, like Mrs. Hayden who died a few days before, was one
of the oldest residents of Jacksonville. Here she lived a long life and reared
a large family of children and saw grandchildren grow up around her. With her
death, disappears another of the links that connect the long ago with the
present. Mrs. Privett was a gentle, kind hearted and deeply pious woman and
her consistent, beautiful life has left an influence of good that neither time
nor circumstances can destroy. She was the soul of hospitality and loving
kindness, and none came within the sphere of her gentle influence who did not
love her. She is deeply mourned by a large circle of friends.
