Obits for Jackson Co., Vol. 6, 1903 - 1904 199. Gooden, Permilia Columbus news Mrs. Mary Thicksten, of Seymour, came here Wed. to attend the funeral of her sis., Mrs. Permelia Gooden, and while the funeral was in progress, she received a telegram stating that her husband was in a dying condition. (Fri., Nov. 18 R) I would like to learn more about Permelia Gooden and her family. Was her maiden name Elenbaas? Would an obituary have been written in the local Columbus paper? Bonnie Grimmius
