Mama Aggie's grave discovered!!!

Aggie Farrow - Find a Grave

 It was a bit of a task to find out when Mama Aggie Andrews had passed away and some semblance of where she had passed away. Or even to have some confirmation of when she was born.

All we have are census records to show that she was around. I found her in 1870, possibly 1880, 1900, 1920, and 1930. She was emergency contact for her son Turner when he was part of the WW1 US Army. Another son Will who joined the US Army listed her as someone he needed to support on his draft card.

We found that she had married a Mr. James Farrow in the 1920 US Census. Which leads credence to family legend as recorded by our tribal historian.

And now we know about when she was born and had passed away. She lived a long life I wonder how many of her grandchildren got a chance to know her. Sadly most of the ones I could haved asked has since passed away.

Both Mama Aggie and Mr. Farrow died in 1944. Perhaps there's a way to find out if there is an official record for Aggie as far as birthdate and date of death in addition to who her parents were. For her parents all we have are the census records.

We do know that she buried in the same cemetery as her US Army veteran sons Turner, Will, and husband Mr. Farrow at Pineview Cemetery, Hattiesburg, Mississippi.
