Hence, Susie was given the name Jones as her middle name. Ellen J. Caldwell had previously married Charles Bennett Jones (1842 - 1929)in 1867. He was Silas' older brother. Ellen J.

=======================
On the morning of August 4, 1910, the messenger of death kissed the eyelids down, and Brother R. C. Jameson was called to realize the mysteries of the unseen. Brother Jameson was in his seventy-eighth year, and was the oldest member of the church worshiping at Beech Grove, Maury County, Tenn., where his presence will be greatly missed. Fifty-one years ago, under the preaching of Brother E. G. Sewell, he obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine once delivered unto the saints, as did about forty others, many of whom were his relatives. Ever afterwards he tried to live as one who desired heaven as his home. His suffering was great before the physical body was worn away, yet he was patient, kind, and uncomplaining. He was married to Margaret McMeen in December, 1866, to whom three children were born Clarence, John, and Clifton. Clarence preceded his father to the grave many years. Besides his wife and two sons, he leaves an aged brother and sister, who fully realize that he leaves a precious memory of every kind word and noble deed that he ever uttered or performed, and that his love reached out to them in words that left them to the right, whose example will shine as the morning star and will last through generations to come. Still there is an aching void, an empty chair; home is gloomy, cheerless, and desolate, and tears flow freely; but we can remember with gratitude and joy that there is a blessed fold up yonder, where no vacancies are ever made, where shadows of sorrow are never seen. Brother E. A. Elam conducted a most impressive funeral service, after which his remains were interred in the cemetery at Lasting Hope. Friends covered the new-made grave with beautiful flowers, showing in a small degree the love and esteem in which he was held. We have committed his body to the tomb, his spirit to God who gave it, awaiting to be reunited with the sainted dead, in the sweet by and by.

Mrs. Foster had been ill for several months, but was confined to bed for only a few days. Nearly a year ago, she lost her sight and, since this time, had undergone one major and two or three minor operations in the hope that sight would be regained and not altogether in vain, for she could see the color of flowers and she told the writer joyously “I saw my grandson’s face today for the first time in six months.” Her cheerful and patient bearing of this great affliction was marvelous.

She was married to Joseph Malloy Foster in July, 1865 and lived at Carter’s Creek until his death.

She also reared a grandson, Mr. Howard Roberts, and their devotion to each other was beautiful.
A sweet service was held on Sunday afternoon at the home of her daughter, Miss Foster, and was conducted by Rev.
