Jackson Progress Argus - October 20, 1966
HEART ATTACK TUESDAY CLAIMS DANIEL W. HAM
Mr. Daniel Webster Ham, 71, widely known Jackson resident, died unexpectedly 
at his residence on McDonough Road about seven o'clock Tuesday morning.  
Thought he had been in declining health for a number of years, his sudden 
passing was attributed to a heart attack. 
A native of Twiggs County, Mr. Ham moved to Jackson many years ago where he 
practiced his profession of barbering, owning his own shop until ill health 
forced his retirement.  He was a veteran of World War I and was active in 
the affairs of the American Legion, serving in many capacities on the local 
and district levels.  He was instrumental in obtaining a Veterans Service 
office in Butts County and for a time served as Veterans Service officer for 
the Department of Veterans Affairs.  Mr. Ham was a faithful and devoted 
member of the First Baptist Church of which he was a deacon, on the inactive 
status, and a former Sunday School teacher.
Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at four o'clock from the 
First Baptist Church with the Rev. Robert L. Thompson, pastor, officiating, 
with interment in the Jackson City Cemetery.  Haisten Funeral Home was in 
charge of arrangements.
Mr. Ham is survived by his wife, Mrs. Ethel Head Ham, two daughters, Mrs. 
Marion A. Mobley of Covington and Mrs. J.R., Caldwell of Hampton, one 
brother, Rev. John W. Ham of Benevolence, Ga., five grandchildren.
Pallbearers were Rufus Adams, Lamar Jinks, W. D. Pope Jr., Arthur Stodghill 
Sr., J. L. Garr, and Dr. Frank Parrish.
