MRS. ANNA ENDSLEY

Chapel Hill, Tenn., Jan. 30--Funeral services were held Monday at Beech Hill Cumberland Presbyterian Church at Belfast for Mrs. Mary Anna Endsley, aged 83, who suffered a stroke of paralysis Friday while visiting her daughter, Mrs. May Neely, of New Market, Ala. She was a member of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church and was a well known and loved woman in Belfast, where she had lived for a number of years. She was making her home with her son, Lee Endsley, of Belfast. Other sons surviving are: G. Endsley of Petersburg, Rufus Endsley of Belfast, Ross Endsley of Sweetwater, three brothers and three sisters, W. H. Bell, C. J. Bell of Chapel Hill, R. O. Bell of California, Mrs. Pate Lawrence Bell of Chapel Hill, Mrs. Lou Tankersley of Shelbyville and Mrs. Tiny Taylor of Franklin, Ky. Interment was at Round Hill Cemetery.

Notes from Dick Wood:

Her name was AMNA, not ANNA.

Her date of death, as near as I can tell, would have been 25 Jan 1929 if she died the same day she had the stroke. Bob Neely, Ida Mae (Endsley) Neely's son, told me some time before he died that Mary Amna did die the same day she had the stroke. Bob was teen aged, living in the home, at the time.
