From "Miss Allie Abernathy's Scrapbooks 1893 – 1923:
(Undated – Death Date March 10, 1894)
In Memory of W. D. Cole.
William Dowdell Cole, eldest son of N. R. and D. L. Cole, was born July 15, 1857, near LaFayette, Chambers County, Ala., was married to Nannie W. Blakely, youngest of the five girls of Emaline C. and John Wise Blakely, December 11, 1884, and died March 10, 1894, after a short illness and was buried March 11th at Rock Springs Baptist Church, of which he had been a member for about twelve years. Dr. W. C. Bledsoe conducted the funeral services before a large congregation, making an impressive and consoling talk. The deceased leaves a devoted wife and four affectionate children, father and mother, two sisters and one brother, a host of friends and other relatives who deeply mourn his death. But none will miss him as poor Nannie and her little children as a husband, father, son and brother. No one was more devoted than he, a believer, trusting at all times in his Lord and Savior.
