Walton Tribune February 13, 1945
Ex-Coroner Rowe Died Yesterday 

Yesterday (Monday) afternoon, at the home of his brother, Elijah Rowe, who 
lives 
on the plantation of Mr. George Gibson, of the Mountain Creek church 
community, 
death claimed Ex-Coroner James Franklin Rowe, after an illness of some two 
weeks. 

Mr. Rowe, a native of Walton county, was a dwarf from birth and yet he lived 
to be 56 years, 
nine months and twelve days old, the son of the late James and Elizabeth 
Hayes (sic- maiden name was actually Hall) Rowe and despite his affliction, 
from youth, had 
been so full of the greatest wit and good humor, was of more than ordinary 
intelligence and because of the general high esteem the voters had for him, he 
was selected 
Coroner, to be succeeded by Tom Brown, present incumbent. He had a 
good opinion of men and matters of public morment (sic) and for some years was 
a member 
of Mountain Creek Baptist church. From that church, the editor of The 
News in charge, the funeral and burial occurred this (Tuesday) afternoon. The 
E. L. Almand 
Co, funeral directors in charge. 

Besides his wife, Mrs. Fannie Rowe, Mr. Rowe is survived by two brothers, 
Isaac Rowe, 
Monroe, Ga, RFD No. 3, Elijah and Albert Rowe, of the same address. He 
leaves two sisters, Mrs. Annie Fuller and Mrs Effie Woodruff, of Monroe, Ga, 
rural free 
delivery mail route, No. 2. 

The sympathy of all who remember genial James Franklin Rowe, is extended to 
the sorrow-stricken.
