Alexander Newnom aged 73, died at 1 o'clock Saturday morning [8 December 1928] at his home five miles west of Cambridge on the National road. His health was broken four years ago by a stroke of apoplexy and because of his advanced age his health gradually declined during the intervening years.

The deceased had been a Guernsey county farmer all his life. He was born on a farm, three miles south of Cambridge, the son of Eusebius and Margaret Newnom, deceased, and was twice married, his first wife being Mrs. Mollie Abels, who died several years ago.

He is survived by his second wife; Dolly Harryman Cain Newnom, two sons, Wesley, of the home, and Otto, of near the Old Baptist Church; one daughter, Miss Gladys Bishard, of East Cambridge; one sister, Mrs. Jennie Jackson, of near Zanesville and one brother, James of California. Four children, Ethel, Ora, Frank & Homer, are deceased.

Funeral services will be conducted Monday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church of which he was a member. Rev. C. E. Houk, pastor of the New Concord Presbyterian Church, will be in charge. Interment will be made at the Mt. Zion Cemetery.
