fROM The Vernon Courier - March 27, 1890
OVER ONE HUNDRED YEARS
Lamar County comes to the front with the oldest living person in the state. MRS. JANE CLOUSE, who lives on the Military road ten miles north of Crews, is now one hundred and five years of age. She has been very active until of late. For the last six months she has failed considerably and it is with difficulty that she does her house work. She says that she counts herself but a little over one hundred years old; but the record of her birth which is now in the possession of a well known gentleman of Marion County shows her to have been one hundred and five last autumn. The pure and wholesome air and water of this section, together with a plain and quiet life has produced this longevity. She was born in North Carolina, and is the mother of eight children. She has resided in this county for nearly fifty years.
