The following obituary is from Sharon DeLoache :
Mr. Will (William Samuel) Deloach died 19 March 1942 in Wilburton, Oklahoma; the following news release was from the Latimer County News Tribune.
"Death Calls William Samuel Deloach"
William Samuel Deloach, age 76, passed away at his home two miles south of Wilburton, following a heart attack, Thursday evening, March 19, at 7 o'clock p.m. Mr. Deloach was apparently in good health before the sudden attack that caused his death.
Funeral services were conducted at the Methodist church at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon, with the Methodist pastor, Rev. Jess Hopkins, in charge. Following the service, interment was made at the city cemetery. The pallbearers were Ben Thomas, A. J. Countiss, John Eddington, C.R. Holsen, John Bramlette, and J. R. Rankin.
William Deloach was born in Walthall, Mississippi, April 9, 1865. He was married to Miss Fannie Treadaway on December 6, 1893 at Alma, Texas. Next December would have been their fiftieth wedding anniversary. They came to the Indian Territory thirty-eight years ago, settling in Pittsburg county. In 1917, with his family he moved to Latimer county, settling on the Vince Davis farm, five miles southwest of Wilburton. During all the years of his residence in Pittsburg and Latimer county he was engaged in farming and stock raising, but on account of his age and health he has not been active in his profession for the past several years.
There were born to Mr. And Mrs. Deloach ten children, seven of whom still survive. There are three sons and four daughters as follows: Sam and Burch of Wilburton and Sgt. W. S. Deloach of Camp Barkeley, Texas, Mrs. E. W. Hammontree, Mrs. A. R. Nichols, Mrs. Earl Mitchell, and Mrs. C. C. Brown all of Wilburton.
Mr. Deloach was in many respects an interesting character and had not a few admirable qualities. He was a man of strong convictions and was always ready and courageous enough to express them. He was typical of the Old Indian Territorial type of pioneer. He loved his country, his party and was fond of outdoor life and the chase, with the accompanying music from racing hounds, was his favorite recreation.
Among those who attended the funeral service was Dick Treadaway, of Miles, Texas, brother of Mrs. Deloach. On returning from the cemetery he received a message advising him of the death of a son, Lt. John Treadaway, who was killed at Memphis that day in a plane crash. On account of this sad news, he was unable to remain here for a visit and the circumstances also necessitated his immediate return to Camp Barkeley. W. S. Deloach, jr., who accompanied Treadaway here for the funeral service, was also compelled to return immediately.
Mr. Deloach is also survived by two brothers, Jim of Birmingham, Ala., and Wyatt, of Marrianna, Ark., and two sisters, Mrs. George Yates, of Jackson, Miss, and Mrs. T. A. Stinson of Big Springs, Texas. They were all unable to attend the funeral.
Mrs. Deloach and the sons and daughters have the profound sympathy of their many friends in Wilburton and Latimer county, account of the loss of their husband and father.
William married Fannie Nancy Treadaway on 6 Dec 1892 in Alma, , Navarro County, Texas. Fannie (daughter of Joseph D. Treadway and Josephine Helen Alexander) was born on 28 Jan 1876 in Lamar County, , , Texas; died on 24 Mar 1955 in Wilburton, , , Okalahoma. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
