North Fork
Mr. Editor:
It is my duty to report to you another painful death. Mrs. Molly Webb, wife of Rastus Webb, died this morning with puerperal convulsions. They lived just across the line in Weakley County. She was the daughter of Robert T. and Ellen Walker of this county. She left an infant, only three days old, and an affectionate husband to mourn her loss. Her remains were to-day brought to Spring Hill Academy, and buried beside other loved ones who have gone before. (submitted by "K.," November 10, 1879.)
Note: The old Spring Hill Academy was on Stewart Road in Henry CO, TN close to the Blake Cemetery area. Molly's grave is no longer marked, so the exact location of her burial has been lost to history. She is thought to most likely be buried in the cemetery where her parents' are buried.
Birth date is estimated from 1870 Federal Census Records, Henry CO, TN, 12th Civil District.
