OBITUARY: Athens (AL) Limestone Democrat, Thursday, October 7, 1937, p. 4
Straud Barnes, a well known farmer of this county, died at Powers hospital at four o'clock Wednesday afternoon and his remains were interred at Sandlin grave yard today (Thursday). His death was due to blood poisoning.
Mr. Barnes was dressing a hog one day last week when he accidentally scratched his hand on one of the hog's tusks. He gave little attention to the slight abrasion, but blood poison set up in a day or two resulting in his death. His left arm was amputated in an effor to save his lfie.
The deceased is survived by his widow, three sons and two daughters, all of whom have the tenderest sympathy of a large circle of friends


Straud's grave may not be marked.

Please add above infor to FAG memorial and show Sandlin (several of his children are buried there) as cemetery. Thank you. Ruth Hasten Walsh (#46872081)
