Mrs. McKibben Buried Tuesday At Jackson Rites
Mrs. Carrie Newton McKibben, 101, one of Butts county's most widely beloved native citizens, died in an Atlanta nursing home early Monday morning. She was the widow of the late James H. McKibben and was Butts county's oldest white citizen.
Born on January 25th, 1860, she was the daughter of Ezekiel Newton and Mrs. Nancy Webb Newton, esteemed and prominent residents of Butts county. She had lived in Jackson for a long number of years until moving sometime ago to College Park where she made her home with her daughter, Mrs. L. H. Hurt Sr. More recently, however, she had resided in an Atlanta nursing home. On her 100th birthday, almost two years ago, Mrs. McKibben was tendered a gala anniversary party by members of her family. Friends by the score remembered her with cards and gifts.
She had often expressed the desire to live to be 100, and it must have been a source of satisfaction to Mrs. McKibben that she exceeded the century mark by more than one and three quarter years. She was a member of the First Baptist Church.
Funeral services for Mrs. McKibben were held Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock from the First Baptist Church in Jackson with the Rev. Walter S. Adams officiating. Interment was in the Jackson City Cemetery with Haisten Funeral Home in charge of arrangements. The body lay in state at the church 30 minutes before the funeral hour. Pallbearers were T. H. McKibben, Malcolm Green, Cecil Adams, L. P. McKibben Jr., Levi Hurt Jr., Ronnie Adams.
Survivors include two daughters, Mrs. L. H. Hurt Sr., of College Park; and Mrs. Margaret Perry of Montgomery, Ala.; two sons, T. N. McKibben of Macon and L. P. McKibben Sr., of Griffin; 14 grandchildren, 16 great grandchildren, and nine great great-grandchildren.
