Notes

Note 1

Hugh Middleton, who had been a resident of Benton County since the war, died recently at the home of his brother near Bentonville. The remains were interred in the Hart graveyard, services being conducted by Eld. Greer.

The Springdale News from Benton County, Bentonville, AR, May 19, 1899

It is with sorrow we announce the death of Hugh {Mid} Middleton, which occurred at the residence of his brother, Columbus Middleton, on Monday evening the eight instant after a lingering illness of several months.

Mid was born in Missouri but moved to this place after the war and has made this his home ever since. He was strictly an honest man and leaves behind many friends and relatives to mourn his departure. The funeral services were conducted by Elder Greer after which his remains were laid to rest in the Hart graveyard, four miles south of town.
