"Lorenzo Dow Randolph died in Alvord, Texas, June 15, 1901, and was buried in the Alvord cemetery. There is no marker, but he is buried in the same plot where two small children of Walter Napoleon Randolph were buried." From page 95 of The Randolphs of Alabama, Kenneth L. Randolph, Gregath Publishing Company, Eastern Division P. O. Box 1045 Cullman, AL 35056, Mid-West Division P. O. Box 505, Wyandotte, OK 74370, 1994, ISBN 93.81087.
In 1867 he sent a report to the Gospel Advocate, from Millport, Lamar County (then Jones County), Alabama.
"Elder J. Fanning. On last evening, I reached here from attending a meeting at
Berea, some 35 miles east of this point in Fayette County. The meeting begin on Friday night and continued until Thursday night, the result of which was 46 accessions; 36 by confession and baptism, 10 otherwise. It was indeed a triumph of Truth over ignorance and sectarianism. Bro. J. Randolph came to our aid and was the chief speaker. To the Lord be the praise for ever and ever and ever. Amen. There are 2 congregations of the brethren in the vicinity numbering some 50 members each, known as the Luxapallilia and Antioch Churches. To these churches there were some 15 accessions last year by my humble labor. Here is a large field for Gospel laborers. I have calls continually so destitute to preach, but owing to my extreme poverty, I am compelled to work on the farm. An incalculable amount of good could be done in this country had we time to devote to preaching. I am the only public man (that is preaching) laboring for the Bible in 35 miles of this point. May the great Head of the Body bless you dear brothers in every good and wise work. Yours in the hope of bliss eternally. L. D. Randolph."
