Byron T. Morris "Out Of The Past"
Obituaries that were first published by the Wayne County Journal
Wayne County, West Virginia

I have just received 50 pages of obits, courtesy of June B. Ashworth.
These obits were first published in the famous Byron T. Morris "Out Of The
Past" series that was published by the Wayne County Journal. These obits date
back to the early 1900's.

If anyone would like to help transcribe these obits, I will mail each
requester as many pages as they would like, in order to help transcribe the
obits.

Once transcribed, I will gladly publish the obits to the Internet/web.
The requestor may either email or snail mail the transcribed obits and I will
take care of the rest!

I need assistance because my work schedule is full for the next 4-6
months.

A smart Wayne County native knows to say, "You do the Adkinses, and I'll take
the rest of the county." (Though I do recall getting tickled once when we
played Buffalo in football (circa 1968) and the announcer kapt saying
"Brumfield on the carry ... Brumfield pass complete to Brumfield ... Brumfield
back to punt ... ")

I passed this around the bingo parlor last night. They all want a photo of
the governor's mansion, first. No one cares how much time you spend out on
the lake, as long as the living quarters are adequate.

Psst... Andrea! HOLD OUT for a photot of the governor's masnion! Being First
Lady of NewBob is probably quite an ordeal--make sure there are plenty of
closets and storage space before you commit yourself. And where does he plan
to keep the bass boat???

In the front yard, rat next to my muffler collection.

We've got a beautification standard here at Septic City Trailer Park left over
from the Lady Bird days, and I've got to abide by it. Rule #14 says "... Bass
boats are considered luxury vehicles and may be parked just about anywhere
within view of the street to enhance the value of the Park and attract a better
class of residents.... All tires on the boat trailer which are visible from the
street must be at least partially inflated during daylight hours...."

As fer the photo of the mansion, when I park the bass boat in the front yard,
all the lookylooers will be so busy admiring the boat and my muffler collection
that I doubt they'll notice the mansion. But since you asked, I'll see if I can
take a snap shot this weekend and post it on the O-fficial web page soon.

As fer the living quarters, the boat should be big enough so I can lay down in
it without knocking the worm bucket over.

June is official "Bass Boat Month" in New Bob. All gumint offices will be
closed on Fridays to allow civil servants to fix up their bass boats and rest
up for July, which is official "Resting Up Month".
