Atlanta Constitution, 1 May 1928
J. H. Gregory, Rail Veteran, Succumbs.

Funeral services for J. H. Gregory, veteran employee of the Southern railroad, 
who died at his home in Toccoa, Ga., Monday morning, following a stroke of 
apoplexy, will be held there at 2:30 o'clock, according to information received 
by friends here.  Interment will be in the Toccoa cemetery.
Mr. Gregory is well known in Atlanta, his  run on the railroad, between Toccoa 
and Atlanta, bringing him in to this city practically every day. He made his 
run Saturday and was scheduled to accompany the train, in his capacity as mail 
clerk, again on Monday morning.  According to officials of the railway Mr. 
Gregory had been on this run for the past 43 years and had been connected with 
the road for nearly 53 years, practically [all] of this time in the Atlanta-
Charlotte division.
Mr. Gregory was highly esteemed in railroad circles and throughout the 
community of Toccoa.  His death marks a gradual passing of old-timers in the 
history of Georgia's early railroad days.
Besides his wife, Mr. Gregory is survived by a son, W. M. Gregory, of Savannah; 
three daughters, Miss Eufala Gregory, of Toccoa; Mrs. Maude Swift and Miss 
Katherine Gregory; two brothers, H. C. Gregory, of East Point, and J. L. 
Gregory, of Houston, Texas, and a sister, Mrs. Mary Wood, of St. Andrews, Fla.
