She was a native of Tennessee, and came to Paris in 1858 with her mother and brothers.

She is also survived by three brothers who came here with her and their mother when they moved from Tennessee. Two of them, Thomas M. and James G. Sandsberry live at Faught and Isaac Gorndon Sandsberry makes his home in Paris with his daughter, Mrs. Fred Allen (Mary Iva) Hooker.

The funeral service was held at 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon at the Rodgers-Wade Chapel, and the burial was at Evergreen.
