George H. Childress died at his home, south of Leslie, Friday evening, May 5, 1911, at the age of fifty-six years. He was well and favorably known all over Franklin County. Always friendly and cordial, he won many friends. He was an honored member of the Champion City Lodge of Modern Woodmen of America. He was a faithful and earnest worker in the Christian church at Antioch where he will be sadly missed by all. He was tenderly laid to rest in the old family cemetery where so many of his loved ones now rest. Deceased leaves four sons, Ben, Fred, Robert, and Leo; five daughters, Mrs. James A. Graham, Mrs. Charles Farrar, Mrs. Henry Blackwell, Mrs. Charles P. Taylor, Mrs. John Blackwell, all living near Leslie. 
Funeral services were conducted at the home and at the cemetery by Rev. W.B. Adams, his pastor for many years at Antioch church. The M.W.A. conducted int funeral services at the cemetery. The grave was covered with beautiful wreathes and clusters of flowers. Everything that loved ones could do to relieve him and restore him to health was done, but a loving Father called to His--weary child, "Come home," to that beautiful shore, where times ceases never, and night comes no more, There Jesus is reigning--we'll ever be blest; We'll sever no more in the land of sweet rest. The bereaved ones have the sincere sympathy of all. A Friend.

Obituary The Republican Tribune, Union, MO April 10, 1925, page 1

Mrs. Alice Blackwell, nee Childers, was born October 27, 1887, and was called to her heavenly home September 21, 1935, at the age of 47 years, 10 months, and 26 days.
Mrs. Blackwell made her confession in Christ in the early part of her life and remained a most devoted Christian until the und.
She lived a quiet and peaceful life in the realm of her household, where all her interests were centered. She was a devoted wife and a loving and sacrificing mother, and these little characteristics will long be remembered by the broken hearted ones left to mourn.
She is not here to comfort and console her children and never again will they hear that gentle voice, or feel the loving arms sheltering them from error and pain, as they grope their way along the misty pathway of young manhood and womanhood.
A loving husband and five children are mourning the departure of this beautiful life. The children are Earl, Ervin, Milford, Mildred, and Milton, who are all at home with their father and one grandchild. Besides her own family, she leaves to mourn for her three brothers, Fred Childers of Ellinwood, Kansas, Robert of Kansas City, and Lee of Seattle, Washington, and one sister, Mrs. C.R. Farrar of Union, MO.
Four sisters and two brothers precede her into the unknown world. She will also be missed by her many friends and neighbors to whom she expressed such a wonderful example of neighborly kindness. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. W. B. Adams at the home, and thence to the family cemetery near Beaufort.
