obituary as it ran in the paper:
The home of William Forrester of Nebo has already suffered two deaths from influenza. Mrs. Forrester, the wife and mother, was taken Friday and a ten year old son, Paris succumbed Monday night. In both cases pneumonia was a complication. Seven other members of the family are afflicted with the disease and three of them have pneumonia. The Forresters are a well known family of their section of the county, and their many friends deeply sympathize with them under the terrible distress they are in.
Mrs. Forrester was 40 years of age and had been a consistent member of the Primitive Baptist Church since she was 18 years old. She was born near Madison, KY, and moved to this county with her parents Mr. and Mrs. J.R. Teague when only seven years old. She was buried at Cave Spring Cemetery at 11 o'clock Sunday with services conducted by Rev. Will Pierce. Paris was buried beside his mother Wednesday.
