From EJ Sutherland’s book entitled “some descendants of John Counts of Glade Hollow quote:

Mahela Kiser Sutherland recalled “uncle Jackie Counts lived just over the hill on Clinch (River). His wife Phoebe died first, suddenly. She had got out of bed one morning and was preparing breakfast. She was fixing to wash some meat and went to the fireplace to arrange the pot rack when uncle Jackie heard her fall. He ran to her but she was already dead. I remember seeing Canaan (her son) come over after granny Phoebe Sutherland and he said, ‘Ma is dead.’l

Noah Sutherland remembered , “grandma Counts was small”.
