The West Point News
The passing away of John Thomas Waldrop ends the earthly life of a noble 
character. His ideal of citizenship and neighborliness was clear and exercised. 
Tactful, jolly and pleasant to the last. Strong in faith and submission to God, 
did not fear to go. He made all his plans known, requested us not to grieve 
after him but to rejoice when he got easy. He was a member of the Primitive 
Baptist Church for many years. Born in Georgia but lived most of his time in 
Alabama. Remembered going many miles in the ox wagon to West Point, the only 
market where iron articles could he obtained in this section long before the 
civil war. He was 77 years, 3 months, 9 days old. The trail of life brought him 
back by modern conveyance near West Point, the town of his childhood, to live 
nearly six years, the last days of his life. Buried at County Line Church in 
Clay County, Ala. Surviving the deceased are: One brother, J. K. Waldrop, 
Wadley, Ala.; Nieces, Mrs. Owen Allen, of Freedonia; Mrs. Dealer Smith, 
Langdale; Mrs. J. S. Moncus, Shawmut; Mrs. Richard Wood, Lanett; one nephew, Hop 
Morris, Shawmut; his wife and stepson, O. C. Dunaway.
