Obituary for Penninah Norwood Sandlin: The Moulton Advertiser Thursday December 7, 1882
An aged mother has fallen in Israel - a land mark has been wiped out by the angel of death. On the 19th of November 1882, Mrs. Penninah SANDLIN, who was in her 86th year, shook off this mortal dust and passed up into the courts of glory. It is said that she has 9 married children, and a large number of grandchildren and many great-grandchildren.[2]
