PATTERSON, Robert Hall - Robert Hall Patterson, whose 87th birthday would have fallen on January 5, and one of the oldest settlers of the Pea Ridge community, died at his home two miles northeast of the town of Pea Ridge at 12:30 a.m. Friday following an illness of more than a month. About six weeks ago Mr. Patterson slipped on the ice-covered ground at his home and suffered a dislocated shoulder. About a week later he became ill and his condition gradually grew worse until his death. Mr. Patterson was born at Murfreesboro, Tenn. January 5, 1846 and moved to Pea Ridge community with his parents in 1853. He died at his farm home where he had spent the last 46 years. Mr. Patterson participated in the battle of Pea Ridge during the Civil war. He was a charter member of the Pea Ridge Baptist church and was a large contributor toward the new building erected a few years ago. He also was interested in the old Pea Ridge Masonic academy which number among its graduates some of the outstanding men and women in the history of the state. For a number of years he was a regular contributor to this institution. Funeral services will be held from the Pea Ridge Baptist church Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock with the Rev. John Harris officiating. Burial will be in the Patterson family cemetery, one mile southeast of Pea Ridge, with A.D. Callison in charge. Mr. Patterson is survived by his widow, six children, W.T., R.B. and S.B. Patterson, and Mrs. G.B. Prophet, all of Pea Ridge; Mrs. J.S. Thompson, Gravette and J.F. Patterson, Rogers; three sisters, Mrs. Harriet Patton, Garfield and Mrs. W.H. Miller and Mrs. T.F. Webb of Pea Ridge; and 31 grandchildren and nine great grandchildren.

PATTERSON, Matilda Ann - Sister Matilda Ann Patterson was born in Benton County, Ark. on August 6, 1851 and departed this life on June 29th, 1900 at 10 a.m., making her 48 years, 9 months and 29 days old. Sister Patterson professed faith in Christ in 1866 and joined the Twelve Corner Baptist Church in the same year. Later on she joined the compact that composed the present Pea Ridge church and has been a faithful consistent member until the blessed Master called her from sickness, disease and death to her final home above. Sister Patterson has been afflicted most intensely a good part of the time but amid all her afflictions she was never known to complain or murmur, but was cheerful and confiding in the promises of God. Sister Patterson and Brother R.H. Patterson was joined in the holy bonds of matrimony in July 1868 and from this union God has blessed them with nine children who are all living. Five of them professed faith in Christ and in company with a bereft companion and loving father are living in anticipation of meeting this beloved and sainted mother where meeting and parting will be no more.
