Laura Bell (Cothran) Eastland was born on July 31, 1876 in Lewis County, Tennessee, the daughter of Ezekiel Cothran (1851-1927) and Roena Catherine (Fite) Cothran (1854-1920).
She was married on June 4, 1893 in Wayne County to Theodoric Carl "T C" Eastland (1871–1960).
A resident of 1206 Martin Street, Nashville, she was 67 years old and the wife of T C Eastland when she died of pancreatic cancer on August 30, 1943 at Nashville's Saint Thomas Hospital. Burial was on October 2nd in Mount Olivet Cemetery, Nashville. {It is noted that her cemetery marker has her date of death as September 30, 1943, BUT her Death Certificate - which is almost always the most accurate record for death - has it as August 30, 1943.}
Most of the above is from her Death Certificate, with Mrs W E David of New Orleans, Louisiana as the informant.
