The Paulding New Era, March 6, 1884
Death of an Old Citizen. 

It is with regret that we are called upon to chronicle the death of one of 
Paulding’s oldest and most honored citizens, Mr. William S. Hogue, which 
occurred at his residence, Tuesday, the 26th, resulting from pneumonia.  He 
was about eight-five years of age and was one of the first settlers of 
Paulding County.  In his younger days he was honored by his people with the 
office of sheriff, having been the first Sheriff ever elected in the county.  
Afterwards he was County Surveyor for many years.  Paulding County then 
embraced a good deal of the territory belonging to Polk and Haralson counties 
and the county site was at Van Wert.  He was for many years a consistent 
member of the Primitive Baptist church, and died in the triumph of the Faith.
