Laura Chappell PRICE Father born in Virginia; mother born in South Carolina 2/3. General Sterling Price, CSA, was Laura's grand-uncle.
The 1870 census shows a "Laurie Price," age 11, residing in Lamar County with the "W.D. Morton," age 36, family. 4 This almost certainly refers to W.L. Morton, who was her sister Eudocia's husband. 5.
Laura Cobb's Mother had died when she was quite young, as she was reared in a Catholic Convent until she was old enough to live with a married sister in Vernon. It was said that the sister was greatly relieved when Laura married Rolland because they were afraid she might prove to be a little fast. 6
Clipped Obituary Notice (no date; unkown publisher):
MRS. LAURA PRICE COBB
On Monday morning, January 2nd, 1922, our loving Father called home the sweet spirit of our friend and co-worker, Mrs. Laura Price Cobb.
After pleasant association with her for a number of years we sadly miss her. She was a member of Church from girlhood, and a charter member of the Woman's Missionary Society. She was generous to all, but nothing was too good to share with her pastors and their families. We do not think of her as being gone but as being just ahead, waiting for those she loved while here.
In loving remembrance of the Woman's Missionary Society of Vernon, Alabama passed the following resolutions:
First, That we extend to the bereaved family our deepest sympathies and earnest prayers.
Second, That we commend to them her unfaltering faith in God, and the blessed hope of a renewal of family associations in a home in Heaven.
Third, That we commend her devotion and faithfulness to her co-workers in every good work.
Fourth, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to her husband, Mr. R.W. Cobb, to the Alabama Christian Advocate, to the Lamar Democrat and one be placed in the Minutes of our Society.
