Death: Nov. 12, 1912 Robeson County North Carolina, USA

Angus, Sr. married Susan Locklear on Dec. 11, 1873 in Robeson county, North Carolina.

The following was taken from the Nov. 14, 1912 edition of THE ROBESONIAN:

Rev. A. D. Locklear, aged 65 years, died suddenly Tuesday morning at his home. His health for several years had not been very good, though he had been able to be up and out most of te time and was very attentive to his church matters. His death came as a great shock to his family and many friends. He seemed to be as well as usual and was picking cotton when he fell, after which he never regained consciousness.

We feel that we have lost one of our best men. But the Lord saw fit to call him from our midst. While it is our loss we feel that it is his gain. The funeral services took place yesterday morning at the home. Interment will be made in the family burying grounds, near residence.

Deceased leaves a wife, 13 children and a host of relatives.
