Obituary

Daughter of Sam and Nancy (Insall) Welcome "Aunt Joe" Baitey [sic.], one of the oldtime slavery black mammies of the south, of whom there are so few now living, and who ever proved themselves worth their weight in gold, died Saturday and the funeral was held the following day. The funeral was largely attended, and much sorrow was expressed by both whites and blacks over the death of this good old woman. Weimar Mercury, April 23, 1920, page 4
