SECOND GENERATION
2. Rev. John W. POTTER (James-1) was born about 1818 in Crawford? Co., GA, USA.
He appeared on the census in 1830 in Crawford Co., GA, USA. He appeared on the
census in 1840 in DeKalb Co., AL, USA. He was licensed to preach in 1845 in AL,
USA. He appeared on the census on 4 November 1850 in Cherokee Co., AL, USA. He
appeared on the census on 9 June 1860 in Cherokee Co., AL, USA. He appeared on
the census 21 July 1870 in Gadsden P.O., Etowah Co., AL, USA. He was living or
visited on 19 February 1874 in Jasper, Walker Co., AL, USA. He appeared on the
census in 1880 in Etowah Co., AL, USA. He was ill with "marasmus" Taken to Bryce
Hospital (Insane Asylum) about 4 May 1883 in Tuscaloosa, Tuscaloosa Co., AL,
USA. He died on 17 June 1883 in Tuscaloosa, Tuscaloosa Co., AL, USA. He was
buried after 17 June 1883 in Bryce Hospital, Tuscaloosa Co., AL, USA. He was
thought to possibly have had a brain tumor or damage resulting from an accident
involving a head injury in a corn crib.
He was married to Martha Eunice BROWN about 1844 in Cherokee? Co., AL, USA
(records from that time period have been destroyed unfortunately). This is his
obituary written by his best friend Dr. John RALLS "Rev. John L. (?) POTTER was
born in 1817, married in 1844, and was licensed to preach in 1845. A teacher by
profession, he engaged in this pursuit with only occasional interruptions, in
this place and in various neighborhoods in the surrounding country. His pupils,
many of whom are now in middle life, and perhaps without exception revere his
memory, are scattered here and there throughout the counties of North Alabama.
He was honored by the people with a seat in the Constitutional Convention of
1861, and subsequently was a representative in the State legislature. These high
and important trusts were discharged with credit to himself and benefit to the
people. Blameless in private life and a preacher who preached, having regular
appointments, and always ready to dispense the word of life as opportunity
offered, his influence in building up and sustaining the cause of Christianity
over a large breadth of country was almost incalculable. Associated with him as
the writer has been for the last thirty years, I speak advisedly when I say that
he was never reprimanded by a Presiding Elder, nor called on by a Quarterly
Conference to primise amendment in the future. Possessing a well-balanced, calm
mind, and having made the Bible and his mother-tongue a life study, his
perception and statement of religious truth were remarkably clear, and in
language, faultless as to grammatical instruction. Making no pretensions to
brilliancy or to oratorical display, his preaching, nevertheless, was solid,
instructive and well calculated to minister grace to the hearers. The
circumstances attending his last days on earth were very distressing. In the
spring, his wife discovered indications of mental derangement, that soon
increased to such a degree as to attract the notice of the most casual observer.
This derangement assumed the form of extreme melancholy. It was indeed sad to
look upon that face uniformly lighted up with cheefulness or sparkling under
sallies of with, now the very picture of anguish, as the distempered mind gave
birth to dread images of starvation, desertion of friends, and the ruin of the
good name he held so dear. He was sent to the asylum at Tuscaloosa, in the hope
that he might be restored--a hope, alas that was doomed to disappointment.
Gradually growing more and more feeble and emaciated, with the mental gloom
unrelieved, the busy wheels of life stood still, with neither old friend nor
relative near to close his eyes or shed a tear upon his grave. Relatives and
friends may feel that it would have assuaged their grief if they could have had
his dying declaration of faith in the Son of God, or have received his dying
blessing, but better and more comforting than these is the priceless legacy of
his life testimony. A life of uniform, consistent piety, patient to suffer, and
strong to do the will of God. The sun-illumined plains of heavenly Canaan will
be the ore glorious because of the shadows and gloom through which he was called
to pass. The relatives, and especially the bereaved wife, have the heartfelt
sympathy of a large circle of christian friends. "Soldier of Christ, well done,
Rest from thy loved employ The battle fought, the victory won, Enter they
Master's joy." John P. RALLS, Gadsden, Ala.
Martha Eunice BROWN was born in August 1823 in VA/GA, USA. She appeared on the

in 1870 in Etowah Co., AL, USA. He was involved in a situation in a "house of
ill repute" and a man was killed. He disappeared. The family story was that
because of his family, he was "allowed" to escape. There is no other family
record of him, but the Charley POTTER listed in the 1920 Morgan Co. AL census
fits his description. His sister Sallie's family moved to Lawrence county and
remained there. Other of the descendants eventually ended up in the same area.
