Annie Allsbrook, A Very Estimable Lady, Has Died, August 1920

 From the front page of The Commonwealth, Scotland Neck, N.C., Tuesday, Aug. 10, 1920

Death of a Very Estimable Lady. . . Mrs. Annie E. Allsbrook Passed Away This Morning

It is with regret that the many friends and acquaintances of Mrs. Annie E. Allsbrook will learn of her death which occurred this morning at 7 o'clock at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Dora Wilkinson in this city.

Mrs. Allsbrook was 78 years of age and the widow of the late Mr. J.H. Allsbrook who preceded her to the grave several years ago.

It is said that old age and her feeble condition were mainly the cause of her death, therefore all her children were with her at the time of her demise.

Her three sons and their families were present when the end came. They are:

Mr. Thurston Allsbrook and family of Weldon; Mr. Noah Allsbrook and family of Mebane; and Mr. Willie Allsbrook and family of Smithfield, N.C., all of whom have the heartfelt sympathy of The Commonwealth and the surrounding community in this hour of bereavement.

At this writing we were unable to learn when the funeral will take place, but will give same later.

The funeral of Mrs. Annie Allsbrook will be preached at the home of Mrs. Leban Wilkinson tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. The interment will be made at the Episcopal cemetery.
