The Evening Star (Washington, D.C.) April 26, 1897 page 9
Mr. Asa Whitehead died at his home, 1336 Massachusetts avenue northwest,, Saturday morning, of Bright's disease, from which he had suffered for three and a half years. Mr. Whitehead was born in Franklin county, Ohio, near Columbus, about seventy-four years ago, and was engaged in business as a carriage manufacturer previous to making his home in Washington, which was twenty years ago. His only active operations in this city were inn property investments and at the time of his death he had acquired considerable wealth. A widow and two daughters, Mrs. Bretney and Miss Whitehead, survives.
The deceased was a Baptist and simple religious services will be conducted at the house this afternoon by Rev. Byron Sunderland, a warm personal friend, and Rev. C.C. Meador, pastor of the Fifth Baptist Church. The interment will be at Rock Creek cemetery.
