AN AGED NEGRO WOMAN IS VISITING ROANOKE
Alex K. Kelley, well known young colored citizen of Roanoke, informed The
Leader yesterday that his grandmother Margaret Taylor arrived on the noon
train Monday from her home in Opelika to make him a visit and that she is
over 105 years of age. He says the record shows that she was born in Talbot
County, Georgia on October 9, 1819. She lived there until about 36 years ago
when she moved to Lee County. She has very good eyesight and can get about
reasonably well. We are informed that she is the mother of 18 children and
of 152 grandchildren. The number of other descendants is not known. Alex
says that if anyone wishes to see this remarkable old woman they may do so
by calling at his home on "Red Line".
