Obituary
Mrs. Mary
Sanders, wife of W. B. Sanders, and daughter of Benjamin
Bobo, died May 6th, 1886. Age 65 years, 6 months and 6 days. The deceased was well known to many of the old citizens of
Elbert and
Hart. She was a pious and devoted christian, beloved by many friends and kindred in Vans Valley. Deeply mourned by the church to which she belonged and sadly missed by her kind husband and devoted children.
Mary
Bobo Sanders is my GG Grandmother. I am trying to find the burial place of her and William B. Sanders. I believe it to be Vans Valley Church but I am not positive. Does anyone have any information on them? Their daughter, Octavia (b. 14 Sep 1860 - D. 28 Oct 1914) married L. W. Ray and they lived in
Hart County,
Georgia. Would love to correspond with anyone connected with this family.
Thanks,
