Final notes on John and Delilah Mills

Very few records from the 1890 U.S. Census exist, so we do not know what the family was doing during that time period.

John Mills passed away on 2 September 1896. He is buried at the Robbins Cemetery at Mill Creek Baptist Church, in Town Creek, North Carolina.

In 1900, Delilah lived on a farm with the family of her son William, in Town Creek, North Carolina. He and his wife of ten years, Penelope, had a family of two sons and a daughter. In addition to Delilah, the family also hosted William’s sister Antonette ( called Annetta Salmon in 1900), a widow.

Delilah passed away 21 December 1904, and was buried in the Robbins Cemetery at Mill Creek Baptist Church, in Town Creek, North Carolina.
