ARCHIBALD JOYNER
- Like the sun setting behind Western hills at the close of day, the life of Arch Joyner, one of nature?s noblemen, passed out at his home near Huron, last Friday morning at 2 O?clock. Pneumonia seized him and claimed him as a victim. The end came peacefully, just as one would draw the drapery of his couch about him and lie down to pleasant dreams. He died in the same room in which he had been born 75 years before. Surrounding him in his last moments were his devoted wife and most of the children. Mr. Joyner was born Dec 19, 1833, and died Feb 5, 1909. age 75 years, one month and 26 days. His father Micah (sic) Joyner, was one of the first five settlers of Henderson County, having immigrated from North Carolina and homesteaded the old Joyner home in Middle Fork, where his entire life of Arch was spent, excepting the years of the Civil War. At its beginning he entered the Confederate Army, enlisting at Mifflin in Company I, under Capt. Ross, of the Thirteenth Tennessee Regiment under Col. John V. Wright. He served with brave distinction during the four succeeding years of the unfortunate fraticidal strife
