James Sturgill was born May 28th, 1816 and departed this life June 22, 1901, making his stay on earth 85 years and 24 days.
He was married to Susan Baldwin July 25th, 1837 to them was given 9 children, 2 sons and 7 daughters, all living, and we hope they will meet their father and mother that passed our of this world Dec. 29th, 1868.
Brother and sister Sturgill professed a hope in Christ soon after their marriage and was baptized into the fellowship of the baptist church and lived consistent members of South Fork church until death.
A few hours before his death he called all his children around his bed and took each one by the hand and requested them to always love each other and live like Christians.
Children never forget the words of a pious father, and I hope we will not forget that earnest prayer that we heard him pray for his church, children and grandchildren. Farewell dear friends on earth below My body to the tomb must go And with my Lord I hope to be Prepare for death and follow me.
