The other Faust

Faust, William Michael, Sr. (November 12, 1865—July 22, 1940) married Laura Ada McFadden (1871—1932). They are buried in the Morning View Cemetery, Ozark, Dale County, Alabama. Faust served as chairman of the 1927 Revision Committee, which added an appendix of 53 songs to the book. He introduced John H. Tenney’s My Friend (Class, Choir and Congregation, No. 98) to the book in 1927, with a few minor changes. J. L. White book committeeman “H. Faust” may have been Henry Faust, the father of W. M. & B. F. Faust.
