Joseph H. Christy
Again we are called on to record the death of a beloved member, Joseph H. Christy, died July 10, 1916, and was laid to rest near his old home in the Greenton cemetery.
He was born October 24, 1839. His parents died when he was quite young, causing him to rely on his own efforts, which served him well in after years.
As many of you will recall, he took great interest in the Old Men's Club of this county.
He served in the Confederate Army under Col. Joe Shelby. At the close of the war he returned to Lafayette County and was married to Miss Mattie Steep 1866; to this union was born five children, namely: Nora Gilbert, Allie Johnson, James Christy, Lucy Phlegar, Gilbert Christy, two of whom proceeded him to the better world.
He was devoted to his Church and always ready to help promote anything of interest.
A devoted husband, indulgent father, and exceptional good neighbor.
