    3. The following obit is for my grandmother who died in Cleveland County. Cleveland Co. Herald Feb. 21, 1934: Mrs. Lucy Williams, aged 42, wife of Fred Williams, died Sunday morning at her home at Herbine, 16 miles south of Rison. Burial was made in Prosperity cemetery Monday where funeral services were conducted by Rev. J.B. Hoover, pastor of the Rowell circuit, Methodist church. Besides her husband, Mrs. Williams is survived by two sons and two daughters, all of Herbine. Rufus T. Buie, local undertaker, had charge of the funeral arrangements. (one of the sons, Perry Williams was my father, and the other son is Austin Williams, now living in Warren. The two daughters are Jayneese Lain who lives in Rison, and Inis Humphrey who lives in CA.) My grandfather later married Bonnie Hyatt from the Herbine community and they moved to Pine Bluff.)
