(Cedartown Standard, Thursday, April 17, 1919) 
Mr. Joe Landers, one of Polk’s good farmers, passed away Friday morning at his 
home south of town and his death is a genuine loss to this section. Buying 
a "piney woods" section, he cleared it up and added to it from year to year, 
using improved farming methods and transforming it from "poor land" into a well-
tilled and productive farm. He was a good citizen in every respect, and was a 
member of the Baptist Church. He was fifty-nine years of age. Mr. Landers first 
wife was Miss Julia Buffington. He is survived by his second, who was Mrs. 
Ardie Bullock, and by eight children, Messrs. Frank and N. O. Landers of 
Birmingham, Cornelius, Ed and Russell Landers, Mesdames Maude Green and Gus 
Tracy and Miss Lucy Landers. His brother and sister, Mr. Ben Landers and Mrs. 
S. Crow of Gainesville were called here by his illness and death. Funeral 
services were conducted Saturday afternoon by Rev. G. B. Boman, of Heflin, 
Ala., and were largely attended. (Cedartown Standard, Thursday, April 17, 1919)
