Burial
Shared note

He is buried in lot E3-P4.

Shared note

A family member remembers him:
"grandparents make memories...both W.J. and Allie Gault were teachers...he was the school superintendant....there were old school books, and library books in bookcase that I remember from childhood....played "school" with them....They also were teachers of HIS WORD...their faith in God was and integral part of their lives...old BIBLES and childhood memories of listening to Grandmother tell about her LORD was a testimony to that."

This is from old copies of an old letter found in trunk....
Miss Allie
If agreeable I would be pleased to call this evening at 7:30 pm
your friend, W. J. Gault
(evidently it was agreeable, because they were married and had a son named Reuben)
