The Weekly Gazette, Ville Platte, LA August 18, 1917

Mrs. T.J. Walker Dead

Mrs. Thos. J. Walker of St. Landry died at the Alexandria Sanitarium
on last Sunday afternoon after a lingering illness of several months,
aged about thirty five years. Before marriage she was Miss Laura Lee
Wassan and even as a girl was noted for her accomplishments and
lovable disposition. As a wife, her natural gifts were only strengthened
and developed so that in her maturer years she was referred to in still
more enduring terms as a model neighbor and wife. She is survived by her
husband who was formerly a member of the police jury from the fifth ward
and who has many friends here who sympathize with him to his great
misfortune. Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon and the body
laid to rest in the old cemetery at Chicot where lie the remains of many
who helped make the spot both sacred and historic.

The 1910 census for St. Landry Parish, Louisiana, has her age at 26 which would make her 17 when she married and her birth year as 1884.
