ANNIE LAYMAN POINT

Grantsville, Maryland

  Relatives here have received a message telling them of the death of Mrs. Annie 
Layman Point, 67, a native of Garrett County. Mrs. Point, widow of the late 
Frank Point, died at a hospital at Alta, Iowa, Thursday, January 25, after an 
illness of several months.  She had been suffering from diabetes, which was the 
cause of her death.
  She was born near Mt. Zion, a few miles east of here, a daughter of the late 
Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd George Layman, early settlers of Garrett County.  Her early 
life was spent here and about forty years ago she moved to Newell, Iowa, where 
she has since made her home.  She has kept in touch with her relatives and many 
friends here by occasional visits, the last of which was made about two years 
ago.
  Mrs. Point is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Ethel Hobby, Newell, Iowa, and 
Miss Esther Point, Washington, D.C.  In addition, she also leaves two sisters 
and three brothers, namely Mrs. Etta V. Engle, Grantsville, Mrs. Lee Stocker, 
Roundup, Mont., Norval Layman and George Layman, Newell, and Harry Layman, 
Chicago, Ill.  Mrs. Point was also related to Mrs. William Turner and Mr. Scott 
Layman of Grantsville.
  Funeral services were held Sunday, Jan. 28, at Newell, and interment was in 
the Newell Cemetery.
