Wayne, I do appreciate all of the Foster information that you are sharing.
I remember back when you asked about my Mary Foster and I still have only
her name.
My Mary B. Foster married Andrew Crawford and they are my 4th generation
Grandparents on my Mothers side of the family. They had Joseph Crawford and
he married Saleria Smith. They had Robert Frank who married Martha Emma
Jane Cochran. They had Eddie Montgomery Crawford who married Annie Pope
Banks and they had my grandfather Robert Clark Crawford who married my
grandmother Lilla Inez Chappell. I have information on some of these lines
but not all.
I remember you had mentioned a Foster family grave site somewhere between
Neal and Concord. I did ask about this but have not found anyone as yet who
knows anything about it...mainly because the older people who might know are
just about all gone.
I am going to send your information to my Lifsey cousin...on my Fathers
side...we will probably have a connection with that line...I will let you
know.
Thanks again for your wonderful information.
Barbara Slade Dayhuff

Mary Foster –In Memoriam

On the 30th day of January, 1906 about 6 o’clock, Mrs Mary Foster ,
better
known as Aunt Mary Foster breathed her last and bid farewell to all below.
She
was an aged lady, the 17th of June making her 87 years old. She leaves a son
and several grandchildren to mourn her death. She was a good, honest, and
submissive Christian lady. She joined the church while young, and has been a
constant member ever since.

It is very true that we will say, “Oh, I can’t give my mother up,” but
God
is a righteous God. When He sees fit to call we must obey His call.

Her funeral was preached at Foster Cemetery by Rev. W. H. Graham.

May the bereaved family be made sensible of their dependence upon God,
who
giveth everyone liberally that seek Him with an undivided heart. Revive
their
hearts and fill them with love to God. May He that rules on high, that calms
the raging ocean and brings harmony out of confusion, come into their
hearts.
Oh God of Love attend them grace and give them true submission to Thy will.
Edna Foster, Grandaughter
