THE RUSK COUNTY NEWS, Henderson, Rusk County, Texas Wednesday, Jan 4, 1911
    On the morning of Dec 25th, at the home of her son, Jake Colwell, three miles west of Henderson, the spirit of Mrs. Ann Colwell passed suddenly into the great beyond. When the family arose on Christmas morning, a beautiful day when all nature seemed to catch the spirit of this most sacred day, and the little ones with hearts full of happiness, it was then discovered that the spirit of mother and grandmother had silently speeded away sometime during the early morning. Mrs. Colwell had been declining health for sometime, being 80 years of age. The family was up with her in the early part of the night, but her condition was not known to be serious. Her remains were laid to rest in Mt. Hope Cemetery in the presence of a large crowd of friends. . .

Joseph W B Poovey
   [Son of Robert Alexander and Sarah Welch Poovey.]

    On October 28, the Death Angel visited the house of Mrs. R.A. Poovey and took from her her loving husband. He was 83 years of age. He came from South Carolina in 1847, was married to Sarah Ann Welch and made his home near Zion Hill, where he had lived for 56 years.
    He united with the Cumberland Presbyterian church in South Carolina at the age of 15. He loved his church and was thoroughly concentrated to all the obligations it imposed and was never known to respond to its calls [sic]. He uttered prayers as long as he was able to speak, and was always ready and willing to testify for his Saviour, but for many years he was unable to attend church services. We have a vacant chair in our home and we miss his sweet smiles, but God knows best and earth's loss is Heaven's gain. Mr. Poovey had a smile for everyone he came in contact with.
    For years he had been confined to his home but he bore his suffering without a word of complaint. He loved his home and children and was never too tired when his day's work was over to take his children upon his knee and sing to them from the old hymn book. All that his loving hands could do was done, but God knew best, so He took him home to Heaven to sing with the angels.
    Mr. Poovey left to mourn his death, his wife, one brother, one sister, eight children, thirty-four grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.
    His body was laid to rest at Pine Grove, October 30. Funeral services were conducted by Re. Cates. --Ruth.
