Obit Notice
Captain Thomas Sargent Parrott, beloved Newnan citizens [sic], prominent in business, fraternal, social and church circles in Newnan, died suddenly at his home on the Atlanta highway, after an acute heart attack, about 1:00 a. m. Monday morning.
Death came almost without warning, as he had retired a few hours before apparently in good health, having just returned from church, and seemed to be in his accustomed good spirits. He called Mrs. Parrott to his bedside shortly after midnight, complaining of severe pain, she hastily called physicians, but they were unable to effect any relief, and Mr. Parrott died a few minutes after they arrived.
Mr. Parrott, familiarly known as “Cap” to his friends, this appellation having been given him after he had become captain of the old Newnan Guards, was born in Atlanta 52 years ago, the son of Theodore F. Parrott and Sallie Corbet Sargent Parrott, and had lived in Newnan practically all his life. He was educated in the common schools of the city, and later attended and graduated from the University of the South, Sewanee, Tenn., in 1899, with the degrees of B. S. and L. L. B. He was a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity, Coweta Lodge of Masons, was captain of the Newnan Guards for five years, and a deacon in the Newnan Presbyterian church, and was also superintendent of the Sunday-school. For several years he was associated with James E. Brown as one of the publishers of The Newnan Herald, he having been extremely gifted in a literary way, and many of his clever poems and other writings have served to amuse his friends and conferess [sic] in the Rotary Club and other organizations.
Mr. Parrott was an outstanding figure in the life of the city, being a director in the First National Bank, the Arnco Mills, and Newnan Building and Loan Association. He was one of the organizers of the Newnan Country Club, and gave much time and effort in the establishment of this institution. His activities were not confined to any one line of endeavor, and in every public movement he was always in the forefront of those laboring to bring success to the undertaking.
Mr. Parrott was one of the organizers of the Newnan Rotary Club, and took a keen and enthusiastic interest in Rotary work. The club paper, the Peptarian, was named by him, and for a year he was its first editor. He was also the “Sunshine Editor” of the club, and each week gave to the members some bit of brightness that fitted appropriately into the program of the day, or complimented some outstanding visitor. Prominently mentioned as a candidate for the office of governor for the Rotary district, it was regarded as almost certain that he would be named as governor of the Georgia district at its next election.
Affable and courteous, with an interest in men and things knew no bounds, he numbered among his friends hundreds of men and women all over the state. His home was the rendezvous for many of the leading writers in the state, both in editorial work, and in various lines of sport.
Funeral services were held at the home on Tuesday afternoon at 3:30 o’clock, his pastor Rev. J. E. Hannah, conducting the services assisted by Rev. C. M. Lipham, Dr. W. E. Stone, and Dr. C. W. Durden. Music was furnished by the Rotary Club’s double quartette, and the Newnan Rotary Club formed the honorary escort to the grave. Magnificent floral tributes from Newnan and all parts of the state attested the love and esteem in which he was held. Interment was in the Oak Hill cemetery, where a brief interment service was given.
Mr. Parrott is survived by his wife, Mrs. Nannie Carlton Parrott, and five children: Sarah, Nancy, Thomas, Jr., and Edgar. [Note: Not included although one of the five children was Ellen.]
