Funeral of Mr H C Sedberry at Berry's Creek Cemetery
Funeral services for Mr H C Sedberry were held at Berry's Creek Cemetery Tuesday afternoon with Presiding Elder Sam G Thompson of the Georgetown District Methodist Episcopal Church South conducting. The funeral was arranged by the Friedrich Undertaking Co. of Georgetown. Sedberry, born June 6, 1869 in Buena Vista Tennessee, died August 6, 1925 at fifty six. He disappeared three weeks earlier while away on business near San Saba, with a note found in his trunk implying he might not be heard from again. He transferred property to his wife and children during his final days, and a body found near Barstow California with the bank’s initials matching him confirmed the death. He lived near Georgetown since 1887 and leaves six children, including Mrs H A Rogers, Mrs Sig Bloomquist, Clarence Sedberry, Lawrence, Clint, and Minnie Sedberry. The funeral drew many friends and reflected his quiet, hardworking character. Williamson County Sun notes his death followed by a visit from the Owan family.
