Thought it might be helpful in some way. Mrs. Annie Millikin Williams- Thursday, 24 November, 1921 Mrs. Annie Williams. Mrs. Annie Millikin Williams died at the home of her daughter Mrs. Milton Arnold on Wednesday Nov 14, of Brights Disease. The funeral services were held from the residence, and were conducted by Rev. G. N. Smith and Rev. Mr. Blanton, pastor of the Methodist Church. Her body was interred in the family burying ground on Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. Williams was born in Liberty County, Feb. 7, 1844, her father was Frederick Milikin, a well to do and prominent citizen of his day. He came and settled on the Milikin old place near Surrency, on the Screven old road. He brought his family with him and settled there in 1850. She married to Joseph Jackson Williams in December 1867 and whose death occurred several years ago. Mrs. Williams is survived by three brothers, D. F, James, C.

She was a member of the Methodist Church and was a leader in church and philanthropic services in her community until age and disease made her unable to engage in any work outside of her home. Mrs. Williams was beloved in her community among many friends and relatives and her loss will be felt in her personal circle, in her family and her church because of her loyalty and gracious hospitality and other womanly graces ----- Original Message ----- From: "William C.
