*Obituary
The Baxter Bulletin
February 16, 1923
Bob Jordan, a pioneer citizen of this county, died at his home in Buford last Thursday, after a short illness from pneumonia. He is survived by his wife and several grown children.
Mr. Jordan was a resident of this place for a number of years, having been engaged in the blacksmith business. He moved to Buford several years ago and continued his business there up to the time of his death. He was a highly respected citizen and will be missed by his friends and associates. He was buried at the Fairview Cemetery near Buford.

(Note: Some of the earlier gravestones for this family had the surname spelled Jordon; however, gravestones for the same family buried in more recent years spelled the surname Jordan like this one.)
