Stephens wend@bellsouth.net April 20, 2004, 9:25 am Cedartown Standard, December 5, 1901) Mr. T. G. W. McMeekin, one of Cedartown’s oldest citizens, died yesterday at Piedmont, Ala., where he and his wife went a few days ago on a visit. His remains were brought home yesterday afternoon, and the funeral services will be conducted at 2 o’clock today by Rev. C. K. Henderson. Mr. was one of the well- known citizens of this section, and was respected by all for his rugged honesty. He was in the 77th year of his age, and had been in failing health for some time. He had been twice married—first in 1848, with Miss Mary Greer of South Carolina, and in 1862 with Miss Lucinda Lewis, of Ladigo, Ala., who survives him. He leaves two living children—Mr. B. H. McMeekin and Mrs. Eliza Hancock. Mr. McMeekin was a stalwart Republican in politics, and was postmaster here for a time during President Harrison’s administration.
