Obituary Dr. N. H. Dunlap

Dr. N. H. Dunlap died near Grand Junction Sunday. Deceased was born in Madison County, Tenn., January 26, 1820, and moved with his parents to Gibson County when three years of age. Nearly half a century ago he located in Saulsbury, where he practiced medicine for many years. He retired from active practice several years ago. Dr. Dunlap was twice married. By his first wife there was no issue. Five children blessed his second union, four of whom survive – Mrs. T. D. Rambo, Corinth; Mrs. R. E. Rose, Hickory Valley; Mrs. J. H. T Wynn and T. E. Dunlap, Grand Junction. Dr. Dunlap was one of nature’s noblemen. He belonged to that old school of Southern gentlemen whose ranks are rapidly being thinned. Throughout his long and useful life, he held in a high degree the love and esteem of all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance. The remains of this good man were laid to rest Monday, a few miles south of Hickory Valley, in the presence of a large number of relatives and friends, Rev. W. S. Cochrane officiating.
