From the South Carolina Christian Advocate, 5/18/1899 DuBOIS–Mrs. Selena DuBois, daughter of Col. H.W. and Mrs. Maria Rice, was born in Colleton, SC, October 1st, 1822, and died in Savannah, Ga., at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Davis, February 6th, 1899. In early life she was happily married to Hon. Jesse DuBois, who preceded her several years to the spirit land. They reared a large and interesting family, five of whom survive. At the age of 13 she united herself with the Methodist church, and remained a consistent member of the same till her death. One of her strongest characteristics was her loyalty to her church. She was a good woman—affectionate wife and mother, a kind friend and neighbor. Her illness was short, and though she was unconscious, and not able to leave testimony, yet we sorrow not as those who have no hope. We have known her many years and loved and respected her. Her remains were brought and interred in the family burial ground beside her husband to await the resurrection morn. An Old Friend
