The youngest of the McGuire sibiling, Hildred was born and raised in Dewey County, OK, with the exception of the the summer of 1914 to 1915, when she instead resided at a farm in Alexandria, LA. In 1922, Hildred moved with her mother and older sister to Oklahoma City, where they lived with brother Percy and his family. They later moved to Hurley, NM to live with her brother Elvis, moving with Elvis to Illinois in 1924.

She graduated from High School in Batavia, Illinois. In 1930, Hildred followed her parents and brothers to Idaho, where her dad and brothers found employment on the construction of an irrigation canal project.

This is where she met and married Lamar David Okelberry, and they had one daugther, Mary Ellen. Hildred and Lamar divorced.

In 1939, in Rock Spring, Wyoming, Hildred married Bert Lee Hyde. They had two children, daughter Roberta born in Twin Falls, Idaho and Sharon, born in Aurora, Illinois. The young family had moved back to Illinois after their eldest daughter was born, as Bert inheritied his parents family farm in Batavia.

After she and Bert separated in 1957, she moved into the town of Batavia with her daughters. After her girls had graduated from High School, Hildren moved to California and received an Associates Degree in Arts. In the 1970s, she moved to Albuquerque, living their until 1981, when she moved to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and lived their until she died in 1983.

Bert married Agnes E. MacMahon about 1901. Agnes was born about 1873 in Illinois; died about 1948 in Illinois; was buried in West Batavia Cemetery, Batavia, Kane County, Illinois. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Her great-granndaughter, Jennifer Fawley, emailed in May 2012 that Agnes's maiden name was MacMahon. On the California Death certificate of daughter, Dorothy, it was shown as MACK.

An Illinois death certificate was not located for Agnes Hyde, nor was information as to her maiden name listed on FindAGrave.

I was unable to find either an Agnes E. MacMahon or Agnes E. Mack, born ca 1873 in Illinois on either the 1880 or 1900 census index prepared by Ancestry.

The only Agnes E. of the correct age in that area as 1800 or 1900 was Agnes E. DUFFY, born Nov 1873 in Illinois, living in the household of the widowed Ellen Duffy of Elgin, Kane County, Illinois. Ellen Duffy was born in Nov 1843 in Illinois to Irish parents. On the 1910 and 1930 census records, Agnes E. Hyde reports her father born in England, and her mother in Ireland/South Ireland. According to the Illinois Death Certificate for Ellen Duffy, she was shown as a daughter of Pliny Lathrop Fox and Laura Riddell. Other children listed with Ellen on the 1900 census were Mary, James, Katie, Sudie and Edward, plus Eliza Dyer, a niece. It may be that Ellen Duffy was married twice, first to a MacMahon (or Mack?), and later to a Duffy. Or it might be that Agnes Duffy herself was married to a MacMahon before she married Bert Hyde. It is more likely that Agnes E. Duffy and the Agnes E. who married Bert Hyde are two different people, both living in or around Kane County, and both born in the same year, simply by chance. Granddaughter Sharon Hyde is not familar with the DUFFY name or family, so it is likely this family is not related to Agnes E. Mc???, the wife of Bert Hyde.

Notes:

Married:
Jennifer Platacis, a granddaughter of Bert Lee Hyde Jr, writes that his "father was Bert Hyde Sr., who was married to a MacMahon....The Hyde's from England go back to royalty. The MacMahon's were from County Cork Ireland I think. We also have a civil war portrait.

Notes:

This brief biography of Henry David McGuire was excerpted from a longer biography written by Keith David McGuire, Jr. titled "Henry David McGuire 1868-1944"

Henry was an apprentice for a stone mason in Lexington, Alabama, moving to Kansas at the age of sixteen when the stone mason relocated his business operation there. It was in Kansas that Henry learned the trades of Wagon/Carriage Builder and Blacksmith, during his four year apprenticeship with a Master Craftsman. After his apprenticeship, he started his own blacksmith shop: initially in Lawrence, Kansas, relocating to Olivet, Kansas, and then to Osage City, Kansas. This is where he met Anna Mary "Mamie" Kuykendall.

Their first two children were born in Osage City, while their four youngest were born at the Red Creek Farm in western Dewey County, Oklahoma. The farm in Red Creek was 160 acres, located In Dewey County three miles west of Trail on Red Creek which drained into the South Canadian River located two miles north of the homestead. The patent to the land was obtained 22 May 1906. The family originally lived in a two room half dugout with mortar walls and a wood shingled roof that had been built into a hillside to provide ten foot high back walls with twelve foot wide rooms. Henry and two neighbors assisted each other in building these dugouts for each family. While they were being built, the families lived in tents and covered wagons. Later the family moved in a wood frame farmhouse constructed on the property. They briefly moved to Trail were Henry worked as a blacksmith, and then back to the farm.

The young family moved from the farm to the city of Trail, which had been relocated two miles northwest to have a railroad depot, after the Wichita Falls & Northwest Railroad branch line was completed. Here Henry again worked as a blacksmith. In 1912 they purchased property in Block 15 located on the south side of Broadway between 1rst and Main streets. Here they built a brick building to house the blacksmith shop, public bath facilities, and their living quarters.

When the economy of Trail could no longer support the family, Henry and his sons travelled throughout the country to find work. In the summer of 1913, Henry and his oldest son Percy even spent three months working in Canada, operating a clear water pump for a coal mine on the Mackenzie River. Henry sold his original homestead to David Hale on 13 February 1915, but retained the building that housed his shop and living quarters in Trail.

During the next several years, Henry farmed in central Louisiana, worked as a blacksmith in Kansas, worked in the oil fields of Oklahoma, and farmed in southern Tennessee, near Florence, Alabama. Mamie remained in Trail with the younger children during most of theses sojurns. Older sons Elvis and Cecil helped their father with the Tennessee farm for awhile. In 1921, Henry returned home to Trail. Soon afterwords, Henry and Mamie divorced. Henry moved to Chicago to work, and Mamie and her daughters lived for a time with her son Percy and then with son Elvis. Later she and the children relocated to Illinois as well. Here she and Henry were remarried in 1926. The family moved back briefly to Alabama, then to nevada, and finally returned to Oklahoma, where they settled in Camargo, on the north side of the South Canadian River on State Highway 34. Here they operated a restaurant that was named the "Nickle Inn," named for the price of the individual servings or hamburgers, chili, and pie.

After Mamie's death, Henry remarried and returned to Trail, to the building that had served as his blacksmith workshop and home years before.

Henry's death certificate showed his parents as Frederick H. McGuire, born in Virginia (sic) and Centhy Porter, born in Alabama. In the space for cause of death, the following was written: "This man was found dead at his home about 3 days after his death. Supposedly died of internal hemmorrage after violent exertion." The physician who signed the certificate was W.E. Saba, M.D. of Leedy, Oklahoma. The informant was Keith McGuire of Camargo Oklahoma. Burial was at Leedy as well.

Henry married Anna Mary "Mamie" Kuykendall on 4 Dec 1893 in Lyndon, Osage County, Kansas. Anna (daughter of Franklin Kuykendall and Mary Jane Elliott) was born on 12 May 1870 in Missouri; died on 4 Sep 1934 in Camargo, Dewey County, Oklahoma; was buried on 5 Sep 1934 in Trail Cemetery, Dewey County, Oklahoma. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Hildred McGuire, the youngest of Mamie's six children read a draft of the McGuire family history that her nephew, Keith McGuire, Jr was compiling.

In May 1978 she wrote him "When I read your sketch of the McGuire family, it didn't seem just right for some reason, and after I thought it over for awhile, I realized why. You were only 2 yrs. old when THE one who made us a family passed away, and you never knew her at all."

"Mom [Anna Mary Mamie Kuykendall McGuire] was not an average person (I'm a lot like her) and very few people ever really knew her except her kids, but there's not one of us who ever failed to love her and respect her. It was from her that we learned to love; she never talked about it, she just demonstrated it.

So no history of the McGuire family could even begin without Mamie....I'm sorry to say that I hardly know our dad until I was a grown woman. He operated the blacksmith shop during the spring and summer and then was gone from home most of the balance of the year, working on various construction jobs around the country and in Canada. He figures in my recollections something like Santa Claus-he came to us on occasion and usually bought lovely gifts, but Mom was the one who saw to our basic needs (and sometimes his as well!). It never occurred to me 'til years later how it happened that we got up on Sunday morning and our long-johns were freshly laundered (after our weekly bath the night before) and mended and ready to go. It must have taken quite awhile to wash and mend four sets.....maybe that's why Mom was later unable to sleep more than 3-5 hours a night! When she was old, she lost her sight, and couldn't read, and she nearly killed me keeping me from my '8 hours' to play bridge with her---because she was unable to sleep. ha!

In a follow up letter, in July 1979, she added "you didn't mention the divorce and I'm sure you must have heard somewhere that our parents were divorced in 1921. They later remarried (about 1925) but never were compatible and lived apart for the rest of their lives. This deep difference seems to have been present all during their married lives and was the cause of a lot of pain and suffering for both of them, but more for Mom than Dad. Men always have been able to find an antidote for their pains better than women and it was more so in the past than in the present----Mom spent her life like a mother bird without a mate.

Dad meant well and he never understood where he failed. He worked hard and long but he took no responsiblity for the nitty-gritty day-to-day needs of his family. His head was in the clouds with dreams of things 'way to too big for his ability to accomplish. He built buildings and thought up fancy names for the business he envisioned, but it was Mom who did the dirty work and kept on doing it after Dad gave up and turned to something else, because somebody had to keep the family going...

She tried to feed and clothe the family and finance Dad's operations from the the income from the store and she ended up with unpaid bills from merchandise ordered from the wholesale houses. She paid off hundreds of dollars after the store was closed following the divorce. Dad went off to a new life (chasing a married woman) and wouldn't even help support his minor children except when the woman learned of it and made him send us a few bucks. I think dad loved us, but he just didn't understand that he owed us anything. So I would like you to change "he operated the store in Trail" (to) he built the building but had nothing to do with the operation.....he borrowed $500 from a lawyer and gave the building as collateral....(causing Mom to borrow that amount from a relative to gain back the title to the building) which she held until her death. When her estate was settled, we opted to give it to Dad, and that's how it usually worked out. Mom sacrificed and went without things in order to pay the $500, Dad spent his money on women and ended up with the benefits of her sweat!

Mom was very young (about 4-5 yrs. old) when her mother died and her father remarried. She didn't like her stepmother and she left home when she was quite young and worked as a domestic in the homes of wealthy people. I don't know the extent of her formal education but probably 8th grade.

She was a tremendously capable person and had an inquiring active mind. She was way ahead of her time, and this is why she seemed strange to many people. She practiced religious and health ideas that are only recently becoming popular. [Note: her Death certificate shows she was attended to by a Christian Science practioner for the two years prior to her death].

She taught the first school on Red Creek, when Percy and Cecil were probably both to small to attend. I think she said she took them with her because she didn't have anyone to care from them in her absence.

She had a good voice and studied music (organ) when they were little but she said she had to give it up because it interfered with her family duties. (Percy poked several beans up his noise and nearly suffocated while she was having a lesson, so she never had another....and the organ was sold following her divorce).

The short story [written by Hildred] that I mentioned dealt with an incident concerning the store....it was so tantalizing to see all the goodies (which other people bought and we could not afford). Sometimes if something didn't sell we'd get it. [The story was about] some rubber balloons with different designs on them..we finally got....mine got away and I chased it 'till I was exhausted and finally it burst. I came back out of breath and heart and Mom was standing in the door with what looked like the one I had lost. She pretended that she'd found it---this is how she was---she didn't try to protect us from all pain and disappointment, but she knew when we were overwhelmed by events in our lives and and came to our rescue when it would have been disastrous if she had not. I think I would have been unable to believe in anything if I'd lost that small thing that day. I believe there is a Power operationg for good and that it uses us to carry out It's work, if we are loving, caring individuals

(Medical):In failing health for two years prior to death, caused by stomach trouble. Attended to by Mrs. Monroe, a Christian Science practioner.

Notes:

Married:
It appears that they were seperated as of the publication of HISTORY OF THE KUYKENDALL FAMILY SINCE ITS SETTLEMENT IN DUTCH NEW YORK as she was listed as living in Osage City, Kansas and her husband and children were shown as living in Trail, Oklahoma.

They reunited when both lived in Illinois during the 1930's, but had separated again prior to her death.

Notes:

In the HISTORY OF THE KUYKENDALL FAMILY book, Lee Kuykendall is quoted as saying: "My father's father, my grandfather's name was FRANKLIN KUYKENDALL; his wife's name was MARY JANE ELLIOTT....FRANKLIN KUYKENDALL, my father was born October 17, 1834."

Lee Kuykendall apparently was misquoted, as he was the son of Franklin and Mary Jane (Elliott) Kuykendall, not grandson..

In another section of the HISTORY OF THE KUYKENDALL FAMILY, both E.G. Kuykendall of Carmi, Illinois (p 240) and John Kuykendall (p 241) list Franklin as the son of NOAH KUYKENDALL.

At the time of the 1850 White County, Illinois census, Franklin had been orphaned and was living with his older brother, Alfred. In 1860, he was married and living with his wife and children, and 67 year old Lucinda Bradshaw from Kentucky. They were living next door to another Bradshaw family.
