Montgomery County Newspaper Clippings:

REMARKABLE LIFE COMES TO CLOSE

A life, remarkable in many instances, came to a close last Friday when Mrs. Leacy Williamson, one of the oldest and most highly respected ladies in this section of the state, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Corbin, near Oak Park.She had reached the advanced age of 93 years, and the greater part of her life was spent in the portion of Montgomery that is now embraced in Toombs.

Her husband, Hon. Andrew Williamson, preceded her to the grave about two years ago.They were the oldest couple, perhaps, that ever lived in this section, Mr. Williamson having reached the ripe old age of 94 years before being called to his reward.They had been married seventy-two years at the time of his death.

Mr. and Mrs. Williamson reared a family of 16 children to the age of maturity, and they are now prominent citizens of Toombs, Emanuel and Montgomery counties.A great many grandchildren and great-grandchildren are left to mourn their departure.

Mr. Williamson, many years ago, represented Montgomery County in the Georgia Legislature, and was one of the most prominent men of the county.Mrs. Williamson was honored and respected by all who knew her, and a devoted Christian.--Toombs County Local.
