That same year on 22 Jul, at Boon Hill Township, (Princeton) Johnston County, North Carolina, she married H Marvin Culbreth.[3] An additional record shows her parents as E T and N V Snipes, and her husband's parents as J B and Julia Culbreth.[4] On both records, the surname is spelled/transcribed incorrectly.
She died 7 Dec 1978, widowed, aged 95, in Goldsboro, Wayne, North Carolina and was buried at Princeton Cemetery.[1]
