Information: Louisa Horner, daughter of David Horner, deceased, was born April 30, 1845, and died December 6, 1922, age 77 years, 7 months and 6 days.  She was united in marriage to Abraham Litton, July 3, 1864, and to this union 13 children were born, of whom 9 survive her:  William and B. F. Litton of Gay, Mrs. Everette Phillips of Reedy, Roane County, Mrs. B. F. Cox of Hereford, Mrs. James E. Evans of Thirteen, Mrs. P. C. Greenleaf, Irving, Clinton and Levi Litton of Charleston.  Aunt Louisa was converted early in life and joined the M. P. Church.  Some time after the death of her husband, she united with the U. B. Church at Gay.  Her highest aspirations were to walk in the paths of truth and right as were evidenced by her many friends who had learned of her christian influence and good deeds.  After funeral services conducted by Rev. Payne of Spencer, the body was quietly laid to rest beside her husband in the family cemetery.  The deceased leaves 9 children, 2 sisters and a host of friends to mourn the loss of a loved one.   (from the Betty Kessel McIntyre collection)
