OTHER RECORDS

Amos Williamson Obituary from two different papers. I don't have the title of the 1st one (left side), but the 2nd (right side) is from April 22, 1904 Wilson County Citizen newspaper, it mistakenly says Amos was in the Kentucky Infantry. I've only found records of him being in the West Virginia Infantry.
