Notes:

From OLD TIMERS OF SABINE COUNTY, TEXAS

Dr. Cornelius Franklin Smith 29 March 1962

Dr. C.F. Smith, veteran Sabine County physician, celebrated his 91st birthday at his home in Hemphill Sunday, March 25, 1962 with members of his family, other relatives and friends. "Dr. Frank," as he is affectionately known, was born on March 25, 1871 at Fairmount, Sabine County, the son of Dr. John Wesley Smith and Caroline Smith (first cousins). Dr. John Wesley Smith had practiced medicine for 52 years prior to his death at the age of 79 in 1923.

Dr. Frank practiced medicine for 60 years before his retirement about three years ago. He began his practice in the Fairdale community in 1899, later establishing offices above Hemphill Drug Company in Hemphill. In the past years, Dr. Frank hasn't been as active as in previous years and folks "around the square" in Hemphill have missed his warm smile and friendly greeting. However, he was able to attend the recent meeting of Littleton Fowler Masonic Lodge.

Recalling his early days as a practicing doctor in an interview last year, Dr. Frank said, "The first 17 years of my practice of medicine was during the horse and buggy days, only mine was mostly "horseback." I have saddled my horse many times in all kinds of weather, put on slickers and overcoats in rainy and cold weather, stretched an umbrella, put my lantern on the bend of my elbow, sometimes not returning for a day or more. I recall one time my horse got scared of the stretched umbrella, threw me and medicine in every direction, but usually I managed to keep gentle horses."

"One time I was called across the Sabine River in Louisiana in a somewhat rowdy vicinity. The ferry was bad and the river was high so I was forced to spend the night. When I went to bed, I slipped my pocketbook under my pillow, thinking it would be safer there. The next morning when I was about a mile away on my way back home, heard someone behind me calling. The man was bringing me my purse, which I had forgotten and left under the pillow."

Dr. Frank says the Model T was warmly welcomed by the doctors and helped to ease their heavy load, even though the times were many when a team of good horses or mules were necessary to pull you and the Model T and later Model A's from the mud holes or deep sand. It was still years before modern highways were constructed.

In February 1896, Dr. Smith was married to Eva Clementine McDaniel, who is now deceased. She was the daughter William (Bill) Watson and Zerowine Joan Smith McDaniel. The McDaniel family came to Texas in 1850 from Spartenburg, South Carolina after stopping for awhile in Itawomba County, Mississippi. There were five children born to this marriage, four of whom are still living. Dr. and Mrs. Smith also raised a foster son, Jack McDaniel of Port Arthur. The children are Mrs. Bertha Peveto of Beaumont, Mrs. Edna (Ted) Barbee of Crockett, Mrs. Sadye Nelsen of Kirbyville, and Robert Earl Smith of Hemphill.

Fairmount Cemetery Marker Dedication Set

"...the first documented burial (at Fairmount Cemetery) was that of Eli Elijah Smith in 1874. He was a son of Edward and Mary Jane Smith...oral history states that Eli Elijah Smith was buried on family land that later became part of what is the present day Fairmont Cemetery. Loss of early records prevents substantiation, but it is believed that the initial parcel of property was donated by Edward CLARK."

(Research):Could he have remarried? A George Truett Clark and Barbara Jean Smith are shown on the Texas Birth Index as being the parents of Jennifer Leigh Clark (b. 1963, Nacogdoches) and George Taylor Clark (b. 1970, Jefferson County). It doesn't seem likely, however, as his 2001 obituary lists his wife as Maxine, and shows only four children.

Paul Dempsey Clark

Paul Dempsey Clark was born Dec. 7, 1926 and entered into rest on July 16, 2007.

Paul was the youngest son of W.J. (Joe) Clark and Minnie Caroline Clark. He now joins his parents and all his brothers and sisters with our Heavenly Father. As his nephew, A.B. Clark Jr. stated, his death marks the end of a Clark era.

Paul was born in Clarktown in Sabine County, Texas and lived the majority of his life in the community of Fairmount near Hemphill, Texas. He is survived by his wife of 49 years, Clarice CONNER Clark, four daughters, one son-in-law, two granddaughters, and five great-grandchildren. Nieces and nephews were proud to call him Uncle Paul. Many of their friends also called him Uncle Paul.

He was an endowed member of Littleton Fowler Masonic Lodge #305 AF&AM. He was employed years ago by Temple in Pineland. He also drove many Fairmount and Six Mile children to school in Hemphill in the 1960s. He retired an accomplished carpenter from Local 610 in Pt. Arthur.

Services were held at Starr Funeral Home in Hemphill with Rev. Richard Smith officiating. The Masons provided full Masonic rites and served as pallbearers. Interment followed at Oak Hill Cemetery near Six Mile.

Clarice, Anice, and Louisa extend heartfelt thanks to all who helped us in our time of loss. Prayers, flowers, plants, food, mowing, feeding cows, tending the garden, and many acts of kindness are sp appreciated. We ask that you continue to pray for us. We also ask that you remember Paul Clark as a strong and loving husband, daddy, uncle and friend.
