West of Searcy, Arkansas, wrote Dr. Jackson on Oct 19, 1924: I am a son of William West, the oldest son of Massey West, the same Massey West who burned his house to kill the fleas Ha Ha!

John Marion West of Worthington, Missouri, wrote on Feb. 17 1925 to Clara V. West (daughter-in-law of Benjamin Thomas West of Arkansas) Uncle Marion was in Cortica, Georgia, then and I wrote to him but got no answer. Ina letter dated 14 June 1866, Jane Prince Jackson West, Marion's mother, wrote to her sister Huldah V. Jackson Dill: My youngest son lives about 30 miles away in Gilmer County in the neighborhood of Lafayette Jackson.
