THE PARIS NEWS Fri., Dec. 29, 1950:
"Dr. Beauchamp of Blossom Dies - Dr. A. T. B. Beauchamp, 86, who started practicing medicine at Blossom in 1887, died at home there Thursday morning at 12:45 o'clock. Active in his profession until he had a stroke early in 1949, he died unexpectedly of a heart attack. The funeral will be held at 10 o'clock Saturday morning, Dec. 30, at Holy Cross Episcopal Church here, by the Rev. James W. O'Connell, the rector. Fry and Gibbs Funeral Home will make interment in Evergreen Cemetery. Surviving are Mrs. Beauchamp and three daughters, Miss Lucille Beauchamp, Memphis, Tenn; Mrs. Oneita B. Packard, New Orleans, and Mrs. Helen Wheatley, El Paso; and two grandchildren, one of whom, Miss Andrea Beauchamp of New Orleans, her grandparents adopted, and Richard Wheatley of El Paso. Augustus T. B. Beauchamp was born near Shady Grove southeast of Paris, Oct. 23, 1864, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Beauchamp, who had come to Lamar County from Tennessee. He married Miss Nancy Womack, March 22, 1891. Graduated from the medical school at Tulane in 1887, he began the practice of medicine at Blossom, and continued active in it until nearly two years ago. He had been an ardent hunter in other days, and fox hunting was his special sport. The esteem in which Dr. Beauchamp was held by the people of the vicinity was attested by them in a very material way a year or so ago. The accompanying picture of him was made at the time when neighbors and other friends gathered at his home to present him with an easy chair and a purse made up by donations 'from a grateful community." This picture and article are in the Taylor Collection, Vol. OBIT, at the Northeast Texas Genealogical Society Library, Paris, Tx. *Tombstone is inscribed, 'Augustus Thomas Benton Beauchamp, M.D.'
