Macro View of Jobe Cemetery taken February 2013 - bbpytel


 

 

 

Jobe Cemetery is most likely named after "J. Jobe" (1771 - 1849) who appears to be the first person interred (plot #257). The cemetery is located on Main Street at the northeast end of downtown Erwin.  From I-26 towards Asheville, NC, take Exit 19 Main Street.  Heading into Erwin, cross over the railroad tracks and make a left at the next traffic light onto Main St.  The entrance is about a half mile on the left next to a car dealership.  The CSX RR runs behind the cemetery.  A circular gravel road and side parking are available.  This is an active cemetery and well taken care of. 

 

Contact me for corrections, additions, info.  "Unmarked" graves with identifiable family relations are positioned next to their relatives.  Other unmarked graves are at the end in alpha order.  My interest in the cemetery is through my grandfather, 3 aunts and 2 uncles and several other ancestors of the White line who are buried here.

        OBITUARY    

My Mom was a song.

She was high to low, fast to slow.

She was tough, yet tender, and would sing you a melody that would sweep you off your feet.

Her notes were of joy and enduring pain.

And you knew right away when she was sharp and when she was flat.

She was a song we needed and thought would never end, with a rhythm like waves that would clap and roar.

Now her harmony is a light that lives in all she knew.

And her music whistles through our hearts and minds and into our own lyrics.

Now her song is our song.    ~~~by Victoria Niven-Valton 2016

On September 30, 1863, he "deserted" at Jonesborough and charged $25 for desertion.  On April 5, 1863, he was age 23 and enlisted with Co. K of the 8th Tenn. Cav. serving as Private.  His record states he was a farmer that stood 5-10" with fair complexion, blue eyes, light hair and born in Union, NC.  He deserted again on June 23, 1864, but it was determined he was sick at his house in Carter, Co. since July 1, 1864, therefore the charge of desertion was removed from his record.   Later that fall he married Viannah "Annie" Ramsey of Yancey County, N.C. and started his family.  Alfred died in Spring 1867 of consumption.  Three years later, in mid-1870 his widow Annie Martin moved to eastern Knox County, Tenn. along with her daughter Nancy Sue Ellen Martin, and mother Docia Robinson and started a new life there.

“Farmer Killed In Fight Over Boundary Line -- Bill Birchfield Dies In Shooting Near Erwin. C. C. Bogart Held. Special to the Chronicle: ERWIN, April 23rd (1935). A boundary dispute of several months standing between Bill Birchfield and C. C Bogart, farm neighbors of the Jonesboro highway two miles west of here, was climaxed today by the fatal shooting of Birchfield. Birchfield, 54, died almost instantly with a bullet in his heart. Bogart, 65, whom officers quoted as admitting he fired the "fatal shot," was held without bond in the Unicoi county jail here pending preliminary hearing Friday on a murder charge before County Judge W. M. Erwin. Threats Are Charged: Officers quoted Bogart as saying that Birchfield came to the Bogart home armed with a shot gun several weeks ago and at that time threatened Bogart's life. This afternoon, according to Bogart, Birchfield returned and precipitated an argument. Bogart, according to officers, said he drew his gun and fired several shots. Two bullets passed through Birchfield's coat without wounding him. The third passed through his heart and emerged from his back. Bogart was arrested, several minutes later by Deputies William J. Tucker and Ben Corren. Birchfield. is survived by his widow, and one daughter, Mrs. Carl Nelson, of near the Fishery. Funeral Today: Funeral services for Birchfield will be held at 2:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon from the residence with the Rev. J. J. Musick officiating assisted by the Rev. S. O. Redacre. Interment will be in Jobe Cemetery. Active pall bearers will be Witt Tucker, Dr. W. T. Woodward, Roy Morris, O. L. Huff, Fred Booth and John Price. Honorary pall bearers will be: W. E. Love, Z.N.
