    Notes:

    Mrs. J. F. M. Brassfield died at her home in Galt Tuesday afternoon at 2:30, after a weeks sickness of complications of diseases, brought on by kidney trouble, aged 79 years, 2 months and 27 days. She had been seriously sick for several days and all the children had been summoned to her bedside, and when the end came the family were all present. Elizabeth Johnson was born in Green county, East Tennessee, February 12, 1845. She came to Missouri with her parents in 1857 and lived on a farm north of Galt. In 1864 she was converted and united with the Methodist Episcopal church, and in 1882 united with the New Hope Baptist church in the community where she resided. In 1909 she moved her membership to the Galt Baptist church, and lived faithful to the teaching of Christ until the end, but on account of poor health of late years could not attend church services often. January 28, 1868 she was united in marriage to J. F. M. Brassfield, and to this union nine children were born, and with the husband seven children, 25 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren survive her. The children living are: Mrs. G. C. Huston, Unionville; Mrs. E. B. Hamilton, A. B. Brassfield, Mrs. Ida F. Bailey and Mrs. Will German of Galt; Blaine Brassfield of Trenton, and Mrs. E. K. Holland of Kansas City. The two children dead are Will Brassfield and Mrs. Ella McCracken. After her marriage she and Mr. Brassfield resided on a farm three and a half miles northwest of Galt until 1894, when they moved to Galt, where they continued to reside until separated by death. She lived to celebrate her golden wedding anniversary, which was January 12, 1923. The deceased was one of the oldest citizens of the community and was respected Christian lady, was a lover of home, caring more to be with her family than to take part in the social affairs. The funeral services were held at the Baptist church in Galt Wednesday afternoon at 2:30, conducted by Rev. J. S. Davis of Kansas City, an old friend of the family, who formerly resided north of Galt, and has often preached here, and as he had always known the deceased made it easy for him to preach a good sermon because he knew she was a Christian lady. The music was furnished by a choir. The pall bearers were six of the grandsons and were: Truman Brassfield, Ronald McCracken, Dean Hamilton, Eugene German, Coburn Huston and Basil Brassfield. The floral offerings were may and indeed beautiful. The flower bearers were four granddaughters: Misses Evelyn Brassfield, Hildred Bailey, Altrude Huston and Maurine Hamilton. The remains were laid to rest in the old cemetery.
