Obituary of BOGGS, JAMES L. Date Unknown Oconee County, SC
Mr. Jas. L. Boggs, who twenty-five or thirty odd years ago, lived in the 
Hopewell M. E. church vicinity, died at the home of Dr. Tripp, near Easley, 
Sunday, Oct. 7th. He died suddenly, although his death had been expected, as he 
had been a sufferer of heart trouble several years. He was able to be up and 
around and expired about eleven o'clock in the forenoon. Mr. Boggs was well and 
favorably known, in Oconee, having lived in the county many years. In  the  
nineties  he  served Oconee as coroner, having been elected the year 1896. He 
was one of the county's county good farmers and substantial citizens. He had 
been living in Pickens, his native county the past ten or fifteen years. He was 
a clever gentleman and many will be sorry to learn he is dead. His wife died 
some years ago. He leaves three sons and two daughters and a number of 
grandchildren. The children are Mr. Julius C. Boggs, who lives at the old home 
site in Hopewell section, Mr. Geo. M. Boggs, of Westminster, Mr. Luther Boggs,
