Obituary of Morgan W. West 
as written in "The Pelham Journal" and reprinted in "The Camilla Enterprise" dated 7 Jul 1933.  

Camilla, Georgia.  
Mr. Morgan W. West 
passed away at his home on Baggs Avenue Wednesday, 28 Jun 1933, at 6:00 AM after 
being confined to his bed one week.  While the deceased had reached the age of 78, yet 
he had been blessed with excellent health and the announcement of his death was a shock 
to his friends.  He was born and reared in Mitchell county where he spent all of his long 
and useful life.  He was a member of the Hopeful Baptist Church and a good man whose 
faith was strong in the Christian religion.  Funeral services were conducted this 
afternoon, 30 Jun 1933, at 3:00 PM at Hopeful, with Rev C. C. Kiser, officiating and 
assisted by the pastor of the Hopeful church.  Pall bearers were his six sons.  Besides his 
wife he is survived by the following children: G. E. West of Macon; Mrs. L. H. Hayes of 
Camilla; Mrs. Mamie Hayes of Camilla; Mrs. P. H. Ward of Thomasville; F. B. West of 
Pelham; David West of Camilla; Mrs. G. C. Kennington of Ochlocknee; H. E. West of 
Pelham; Mrs. R. J. Mitchell, D. W. West of Cairo; and Mrs. C. L. Chastine of 
Thomasville, Ga.  The friends of the bereft family deeply sympathize with them in their 
great loss.
