BAXTER E. STOUT
Baxter E. Stout, pioneer settler of Jefferson county and for several years a resident of Waurika died at his home here Tuesday, October 12 (1948), following a long illness.
Baxter E. Stout was the youngest child of Jerry N. (M.) and Elizabeth Walker Stout, was born April 16, 1873 in Lexington, Alabama. The family moved to Lockesbury, Arkansas, two years later. The mother died when Mr. Stout was 4 years old. He lived there until the call of the West brought him to Indian Territory in 1906, when he settled near Valiant. It was here he met and wooed Miss Mary A. Wheeler. They came with others to Waurika and were married at Ryan on September 7, 1907.
Mr. Stout was employed on the railroad for a time but soon began farming near Waurika, which he continued until 1941, when he retired and moved to Waurika.
He became a Christian several years ago and lived very close to God, making many talks on the Bible.
He became ill in 1940 and was up and down, having several operations, none of them apparently successful. He became confined to his bed in 1944 and suffered much until God, in his mercy, saw fit to relieve him of all pain.
Two brothers and three sisters preceded him in death. He leaves to mourn his passing, his widow, Mrs. Mary A. Stout of Waurika, a daughter, Mrs. Boyd Gay of Corcoran California; on son, William Leslie Stout and 10 Grandchildren.
Grandchildren are Robert Stout, Elmer Gay, J. W. Gay, Leslie Gay, Janet, Gay, Joyce Gay, David Gay, Bruce Gay, Mary Ann Gay, Vernon Gay and Wanda Faye Gay.
Note: One sister was named Mrs. Lou Vice who died in Cove, Arkansas. Another possible name for her was Lou Wheatley. (Sarah Louisa Wheatley. Born 18 May 1968, died 18 Mar 1932, buried in Howard Arkansas. Memorial #62250533)
One nephew was Mr. Tom Needham

BAXTER STOUT-1930 CENSUS: The document shows Baxter Stout, Amanda Stout, Leslie Stout, Baxter's niece, Pearl Gordon and her 2 children Hazel and Eunice. The census (which wrongly says Pearls two children are Baxter's daughters) lists his occupation as a farmer.

Stout (father of Baxter Euing Stout) was born March 4 1831, joined the Confederate army in 1861, a prisoner of war at Camp Chase, Ohio until war ended. He lived in Alabama until 1874, moved to Arkansas and settled in Sevier county.
