RHODINA VANCE NEWSOME
By the help of the Lord we will try to write the obituary of our beloved mother
Rhodina Vance Newsome. She was the daughter of the late Jarvey Vance and Virgie
Tackett Vance. She was born November 21, 1900 and deceased her life December 22,
1978. She was married to Jarvey Newsome and to this union were born 11 children
one deceased her life, this leaves to mourn her loss 10 children, 6 boys: Robert
Newsome of Wheelwright, Ky,; Estle Newsome of Beaver, Ky,; Foster Newsome of
Melvin, Ky.; Tivis and Anthony Newsome of McDowell, Ky.; Anderson Newsome of
Ligon, Ky,; 4 girls Malie Moore of Wheelwright, Ky,; Thelma Adams of Beaver,
Ky.; Lula Bell Tackett of Huntington, Indiana,; and Alice Johnson of
Wheelwright, Ky. She has 64 grandchildren, 85 great-grandchildren, and 2 great
great grandchildren. She joined the Old Regular Baptist Church in 1948 and was a
member for 30 years. She was a faithful member and filled her seat until the
Lord called her home. When she got. so that she couldn't go to church she would
always call for church at her home. We feel that if the family wants to see her
again that they will have to ask God that she trusted in all those years.
Written by her broken hearted daughters, Alice Johnson, Thelma Adams and Lula Tackett
JARVEY NEWSOME I will try to write an obituary of my beloved Father-in- law. He was born in 1892 and died October 18, 1963, making his stay here on earth 70 years, 1 month, 4 days. He was married to Rhodina Vance and to this union 11 children were born. One preceded him in death and 10 children are left to mourn his loss. He was the son of Noah and Anzie Brown. The children are Maxie Moore, Lula Bell Tackett, Thelma Adams, Alice Johnson, Foster Newsome, Robert Newsome, Estil Newsome, Tivis Newsome, Anthony Newsome, Anderson Newsome, and three sisters Jane Vance, Babe Tackett, Nance Holt, four brothers Port, Johan, Bob, and Tivis. Left to mourn his loss. He bore his sickness with great pride. He had a stroke the 3th day of October and was taken to the hospital but nothing could be done for him. We stood by him and did all we could for him but Jesus loved him best. He wanted to be baptized that was all his talk so he joined the Regular Baptist Church the 16th of October 1963. He was baptized by J. L. Hamilton, Butler Howell, Miford Adams, and Bill Martin. He was baptized in a sheet when we brought him back home he didn't want us to change his clothes. He said they felt so cool to him and seemed like he felt so much better. So on the 18th of October, 1963 Jesus called him home to punish no more. He was buried the 20th of October on the Noah Newsome Cemetery. He had 7 great-grandchildren, 48 grandchildren. I could write lots more but time won't permit. Written by heart broken daughter-in-law and son, Opal and Tivis Newsome.
