He was the infant son of Walter Martin LINGO & Bartie Ann DENNIS, and twin brother of Florence Ann LINGO. His older siblings were Samuel Elmer, Sedley Martin & Alice Elizabeth LINGO.

OBITUARY: Norwich, Page Co., IA; Feb 26, 1913.

"DEATH OF LINGO BABY - The death of Walter Forrest, the six-weeks-old son of Walter M. Lingo, occurred at the home of his grandfather, S.S. Lingo, on Monday morning, Feb. 24 at six o'clock. His death was caused by la grippe. He had not been strong from birth and his frail little body could not stand the disease. His twin sister had been sick for several days and was recovering when he was taken sick. His death was just three weeks later than his mother's. Funeral services were held at the home on Tuesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. Van Dyke of Yorktown. Interment was made in Rose Hill cemetery by the side of the departed mother. Baby Forest had not been in his grandfather's home a month but the babies were the idols of the household until his death cast a gloom of sadness over the home. But he has gone to welcome us in that "Better Land".
