"Mrs. Carrie M. Jones, 78 years of age, a pioneer citizen of Polk County, died Monday, February 2 at Smithfield at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Lelia La Follette. She had been sick only a short time, hence her death came as a shock to her relatives and friends.

Her father, Capt. John F. Carr, and her mother came to Texas from Memphis, Tennessee in the early days when Texas was still a republic.
