Obituary:

Elizabeth Arterberry Alvarado Bulletin - 17 June 1892

Died, in Seymour, Baylor County, on the 9th inst., Mrs. Elizabeth Arterbury. Her home was in Johnson County with daughter Burnetta and Ben Barnes. She left here on the 22nd of March on a visit, was taken sick in two weeks and was never able to be brought home. Grandma, as she was called by all who knew her, was born in Kentucky, April 17, 1813, and was therefore in her 80th year. She made a profession of religion about 1862 and joined the Christian church, and since that time has lived the life of a consistent Christian, letting her light shine at all times, and on her dying bed expressed a willingness to die. She leaves four daughters, Mrs. Davis, Mrs. Barnes, Mrs. Wright and Mrs. McGuire, and three sons, Franklin, Wilson and Burt, all of whom are in Texas except Wilson, and a host of grandchildren. All the older citizens, male and female, of this county have spent many pleasant moments with Grandma Arterberry and the bereaved have the sympathy of the whole community and hope their children and grandchildren may emulate her example and meet her in the bright beyond, where parting is no more. Her remains were interred in the Alvarado cemetery.
