Abt 1769 - Abt 1848 (~ 79 years)
Generation: 1
1. | Gabriel Blackburn was born about 1769 in Sampson County, North Carolina; died about 1848 in Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
The following was copied from the notes of Mary Frances SMITH Fisher of Jackson, Mississippi, loaned to Melinda McLemore Strong by Esther McGrew Hardin ca 1998:
New Orleans Christian Advocate October 12, 1859
The following obituary was written by Rev. William Winans, an early Mississippi circuit riding preacher, from information [presumably] told him by Gabriel Blackburn. "G. Blackburn was born in Samson (sic) County, North Carolina, in the year 1769; was carried thence by his parents, at two years old, to Caroline County, S.C. (?). Two other removes brought him near to Georgetown, in the same State, where he married at the age of twenty-one years. In 1793 he removed to the State of Tennessee; in 1797, to the neighborhood of Natchez, in the then Mississippi Territory. His next remove was into West Florida-then a Spanish Province-near where the town of Jackson now stands. Finally, he removed to the neighborhood of Monticello, in the State of Mississippi, where he died several years ago, "rejoicing in the hope of the glory of God."
Notes: Sampson County, NC was formed in 1784 from Duplin, Johnston, & New Hanover counties. Several early Blackburns were in this area, but no proof has been located on who his parents were. The 1790 South Carolina Census verifies his location in that area as he is listed as living in Georgetown District, Prince Fredericks Parish. He was shown as married on the census. No records of him in Tennessee have been discovered. Fisher speculates that Rev. Winans apparently lost contact with Gabriel Blackburn, as he did not show the correct location of death.

Reference 1209, Film Roll 89 Gabriel Blackburn sold 400 arpents in "New Feliciana" to John Rhea for 400 pesos cash on 9 September 1806. This is the same property listed on page 43 of the above referenced American State Papers. It was a Spanish Grant, and the document was written in Spanish and transcribed for the West Feliciana Parish records. From the transcription: "I, Don Carlos de Grand-Pre', Colonial of the Royal Armies, Military and Civil Governor of the Post and District of Baton Rogue, certify that I know the grantors who signed with Samuel Fulton and Thomas Estevan."

NOTORIAL BOOK B, PAGE 13, WEST FELICIANA PARISH, ST. FRANCISVILLE, LOUISIANA shows Gabriel Blackburn as "Constable for the Parish of Feliciana, Territory of Orleans." This document refers to the date "24 July 1812" and was recorded on 10 December 1818. He would have been constable prior to 30 April 1812, when Louisiana became a state, but after Feliciana Parish was formed.

BOUNTY REQUEST from the National Archives 1855- Rejected File #184522 War of 1812, re-examined 9 January 1857 "Gabriel Blackburn Sgt. served in Captain Llewellyn Griffith's Co, LA Militia from 29 Oct until 22 Jan 1815, when he was reduced in ranks and served as private till 24 Mar 1815." (After the Battle of New Orleans, while he was in service in that area, so it is probable he took part in that battle). This bounty request was filed from Milam, Sabine County, Texas on June 23, 1855 by Gabriel's daughter, Elizabeth Blackburn McGrew, widow of Alexander McGrew.
It reads:
"STATE OF TEXAS, COUNTY OF SABINE
On this 18th day of June AD 1855 personally appeared before me the undersigned authority, authorized to administer oaths for general purposes within and for the said county, ELIZABETH MCGREW aged 59 years, a resident of said county and State who being by me duly sworn according to the law on oath declares that, affidavit: Alexander S. Blackburn, Harriet Freeland, Armstrong J. Blackburn, Feliciana Cole, Ferdinand Blackburn, and Frances A. Means are the sole surviving heirs of Gabriel Blackburn, deceased, being (the) deceaseds own children, that the said Gabriel Blackburn died in the year 1848, that said Gabriel Blackburn is the identical person who voluntered a Private in the company commanded by Captain Griffith, name of Col. and no of regiment not recollected, in the war with Great Britian declared by the United States on the 18th day of June 1812, that he voluntered 1813 for and during the war and continued in active service in said war for something near one year and was honorably discharged, thinks at New Orleans. She makes this declaration for the purpose of obtaining Bounty Land, for self and co-heirs, which they may be entitled to under the acts of Congress, heretofore passed, Granting Bounty Lands to certain officers, soldiers who have been engaged in the military services of the United States" she further states that "she has not received a warrant for Bounty Land under the act of Congress nor made any other application therefor is this Behalf." Signed Elizabeth McGrew Witnessed by Gideon A. Norford and James M. Weathered, residents of Sabine County. who declared that they were well acquantied with Gabriel Blackburn, and that he died in Sabine in 1848.
Note: The clerks lined out the names of: Harriet Freeland, Armstrong J. Blackburn, Feliciana Cole, and Ferdinand Blackburn, presumably because they had never been to Texas and were not personally known to the clerks.
In a letter from Mary Fisher to Esther McGrew Hardin of San Antonio, she asks "Do you have the reference that states "Gabriel Blackburn had the reputation for making the best corn whiskey in the Mississippi Territory?" Someone told me about this but they could not locate it and they could not remember where they found it. I would love to have a copy...I did locate one statement in "Mississippi as a Providence, Territory and State" by Gov. C.C. Claiborne that might be what they were thinking about. 'The Creek Indians stole a large lot of whiskey belonging to Parson Blackburn.' This was in the chapter "Natchez in the Olden Times", page 528. It went on to say he was an eminent "Presbyterian" clergyman, so I am not sure if it was Gabriel or not. Do you have the New Orleans Christian Advocate article? It is the most fascinating thing that I have found. It tells how Gabriel plotted to kill a man before he became a Christian. Let me know if you need it."
In her reply, Esther McGrew Hardin cited the book "Annals of Tennessee" by Ramsey, in which there is a story of Gideon Blackburn, who established with Samuel Doak a Presbyterian college, and became a noted Presbyterian preacher. Esther stated that this must be the Pastor Blackburn who had the stash of whiskey stolen by the Indians. She noted other references to Gideon Blackburn in the Mississippi History by Claiborne and in "Tennessee Cousins" by Worth S. Ray. Esther believes it possible that Gideon and Gabriel were related, and this might be why Gabriel went to Tennessee.
According to Blanche Finley Toole of Sabine County, Texas, Gabriel Blackburn's home was just west of the Old Milam cemetery and his Gristmill was located on Borreagus Creek. This property later (much later) became the property of the John W. Allen family. Allen descendants still live there and know where the old lost cemetery is. According to an article in the August 26, 1965 SABINE COUNTY REPORTER entitled "Mrs. Etta Nichols Speaks on History of Low's Chapel.. "Long leaf virgin timber grew prolifically in the vicinity at the Allen Saw Mill on Palo Guacho Creek."
Gabriel may have been buried in the Old Milam cemetery, or his body may have been returned to Columbia, Mississipi to be interred on his old homeplace on Highway 13, on property owned in 1963 by a Mr. Polk.

2. | Elizabeth Blackburn (1.Gabriel1) was born between 1794 and 1796 in Feliciana Parish, Louisiana; died after 1860 in Perry County, Mississippi. Notes:
(Medical):The child of a direct female descendant of Elizabeth Blackburn (Nina Fuller, the daughter of Viola Fullen and granddaughter of Jane Allen) had their mtDNA analyzed, and it was predicted as H, with only one difference from the Cambridge Reference Sequence, 16519C, which is a fast moving marker. Mitochondrial haplogroup H is a predominantly European haplogroup that participated in a population expansion beginning approximately 20,000 years ago. Today, about 30% of all mitochondrial lineages in Europe are classified as haplogroup H. It is rather uniformly distributed throughout Europe suggesting a major role in the peopling of Europe, and descendant lineages of the original haplogroup H appear in the Near East as a result of migration. Future work will better resolve the distribution and historical characteristics of this haplogroup.
On her Clan Helena website, Amelia Reimer writes that, "Whether just by chance or by the guiding hand of natural selection we do not know, but Helena's clan has grown to become the most widespread and successful of the Seven Daughters of Eve. Her children have reached every shore, settled every forest and crossed every mountain range. Helena's descendants can be found from the Alps in the South to the Scottish Highlands and the Norwegian fjords in the North, and as far east as the Urals and the Russian steppes. Helena was born about 20,000 years ago on the strip of land that joins France and Spain, near what is now Perpignan. She belonged to a family of hunters, who harvested the rich oyster beds in the lagoons of the Carmargue to supplement their diet of meat. Helena's clan arrived in Europe from the Middle East, pushing their way along the Mediterranean, constrained to the narrow strip of land that was still habitable. Not long after she was born, the glaciers that covered the Pyrenees, which Helena could see on a clear day only thirty miles from her camp, began to draw back as, little by little, the summers grew warmer. Some of her clan moved south of the mountains, up the valley of the Ebro to the West to reach the lands of the Basque, where they remain to this day. The most adventurous of her children took advantage of the climatic improvements and journeyed ever northwards to join the great movement of hunters across the plains of France. We know that they reached England around 12,000 years ago because DNA recovered from a young male skeleton found in Gough's Cave in Somerset shows that he too belonged to the clan of Helena. [Same cave as Cheddar Man, but 3,000 years older.] "

3. | Alexander S. Blackburn (1.Gabriel1) was born about 1797 in Tennessee; died on 2 Feb 1863 in St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana. Notes:
Mary Frances Smith Fisher shows that he servied in Pvt. L. C. Griffith's Co, Louisiana Militia during the War of 1812, enlisting on Oct. 29, 1814 and being discharged on 24 Mar 1815. She also notes that the family can be found on the Marion County, Mississippi census in 1830 and 1840, and in Washington Parish, LA in 1850.
His widow, Martha. applied for a pension based on his service during the War of 1812. He was shown as marrying Martha on 18 Jun 1820. He enlisted for the war on 29 Oct 1814, and was discharged on 24 mar 1815. He died in St. Tammany Parish, LA on 2 Feb 1863. Martha died in 1889. The Pension number is WC 30613, the Bounty Land Number 39669 80 50 and 10809 80 55.
He sold a tract of land on 27 Mar 1817 to James Scott Jrs. in East Feliciana Parish (Notorial Records, Book A, Page 319, East Feliciana Parish, Clinton, LA). Book B, page 30, of the West Feliciana Parish Notorial Records, St. Francisville, LA, shows that he and his wife Marry Ann sold property to John Randolph.
Bettye Bragg Wagstaff showed him as born in Feliciana Parish, LA, which contradicts the census information of Tennessee.

5. | Armstrong Irvine "Joel" Blackburn (1.Gabriel1) was born on 11 Oct 1801 in Feliciana Parish, Louisiana; died on 19 Sep 1867 in Marion County, Mississippi. Notes:
Mary Frances Smith Fisher provided the following transcription of his obituary from the NEW ORLEANS CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE, 9 Nov 1867
Departed this life, September 19, 1867 in the town of Columbia, Miss., Doctor A.J. Blackburn, a local deacon of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South.
Bro. Blackburn was born in East Feliciana Parish, October 11, 1801. He was the son of one of the first settlers in that part of the state; and his father before him was a prominent and useful local preacher in the church.
The doctor having embraced religion at a very early age, commenced preaching when 19 years old, and the practice of medicine at 23; and thro' life maintained an unspotted reputation as a minister and physician, administering alike to the souls and bodies of men, with such faithfulness, zeal and kindness, as won for him an enviable position and a consecrated remembrance in the hearts and minds of those who knew him.
In 1866, he took work in the Mississippi Conference and was appointed to Covington, La, where his gentlemanly bearing, polished urbanity and deep piety endeared him to all his flock. Tho' possessed of considerable preaching abilities, he had to mourn to see so little fruit of his toils; and tho' like the prophet, he had to exclaim "Lord who hath believed our report;" yet his record was on high, for he was one of those who "signed and cried for the abominations of the people."
At the close of the year, his health begining to fail, and feeling his work nearly finished, he returned to Washington Parish, La.; but here he was not idle. By day and by night, as long as he was able, he attended the sick, and filled an appointment monthly, on a circuit left without a preacher, till being called to attend the Columbia Court, he was taken sick on the way, was conveyed to the town where he had long resided. In his brief illness exclaimed, in relation to eternity, "all is bright." Then requesting to be carried to the gallery, took a last look at his old home; gave his parting blessing to his son of many prayers, and calmly and resignedly breather his sould into the bosom of his God. "The righteous are taken from the evil to come." G. T. Vickers.
Per Mary Frances Smith Fisher, he went to California during the Gold Rush. A son that was with him was killed by Indians per a tale from the Cole line of the family. In 1850 he was not located on the Marion County, MS census, possibly already in California, as a Marion County probate record was filed on 18 Feb 1851 noting that "Said Armstrong J. Blackburn, who is now in the State of California...." His wife, Susan, can be found in Marion County, Mississippi in 1850, page 401, Family #274/278, living alone.
She also noted that in MARION COUNTY MISSISSIPPI MARRIAGE BOOKD C, PAGES 7-9, the credentials of Armstrong J. Blackburn (as a minister) were recorded and they were accepted by the probate court of Marion County in the July term 1837. He married many early Marion county couples, including his brother Ferdinand B. Blackburn to Miss Sarah Tyner.

Richard also had a letter in his posseision in which Ferdinand was addressed as Major, and he therefore believed he was an officer in the State Militia, but could not find a record of service. The children of Ferdinand B. and Sarah Elizabeth Balckburn were Gabriel, John A., Mary who married John BROOM, Amanda who married Alex STRINGER, Mollie who married Teal LOTT and Ada who married Tom LOTT.

13. | John Gabriel McGrew (2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born about 1821 in Marion County, Mississippi; died about 1857 in Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Per Blanche Toole of Sabine County, he was a veteran of the Mexican War. THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW shows he mustered out on 14 Oct 1846 at Milam.
Could this be the John McGrue in Capt. Cameron's company in 1841? "J. McGrue pvt. enlisted in Capt. Ewen Cameron's Company in Texas. From ATTACK AND COUNTER ATTACK THE TEXAS MEXICO FRONTIER 1842 by Joseph Milton Nance p.630.
Per H. Huson's book "Refugio" Capt. Cameron, and many of the men in his company were taken prisoner and marched to Mexico City. Of the 170 men captured, it was decreed 1 in 10 were to be shot. The men were forced to draw beans, and the 17 men who drew black were the ones shot. Capt. Cameron was so hated that he was shot anyway.
On the 1850 census, he is shown as the head of the household, after his father had died the previous year. Wynema McGrew quoted Texas General Land Office records in the possession of Dr. Johnie L. Reeves "on the 17th day of May 1856, in Sabine County Texas, John G. McGrew, administrator of the Estate of Gabriel Blackburn, gave affidavit that the Headright Certificate for 1280 acres had been lost or destroyed."
He may have also received a land grant in Shelby county, above Sabine, in the 1840s (tax roll records).

18. | Adaline McGrew (2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born about 1838 in Marion County, Mississippi; and died. Notes:
Wynema McGrew noted that she appears to have married first an Odam/Odom. Ester McGrew Hardin speculated that Adaline was visiting some MEANS relatives in DeWitt County and met the Odams who lived nearby.
Bettye Bragg Wagstaff informed me that Mary Fisher mentioned a possible connection between the Odom Family and the Blackburn/McGrew family. On the LDS family group sheet, an Odom is listed as a possible husband of Adeline McGrew. In Sabine County in 1850, the Odom family lived nearby both the John and Harriet (McGrew) Partin family and the family of of John Wooldridge Allen and Caroline (McGrew??) Allen. In 1835, there is an Odom living near the William Means family (whom according to Blanche Toole, was the first sherriff of Sabine County). William Addison Means was married to Francis Amelia Blackburn, the sister of Elizabeth Blackburn McGrew. He was also a member of the Congress of the Republic of Texas in both 1843 and 1845 from DeWitt County.
The Means family moved from Sabine to DeWitt County, taking along with Frances (Tyner) Blackburn, who died in Gonzalez, TX ca. 1853. The Odom families do not appear again on the Sabine County census after 1850.
Hardin also found a later marriage record, showing that on 3 Sept 1870 in Robertson County, Texas, Adaline married Miles KELLY. Hardin may be conflating two different families, however. A very large Miles and Adeline Kelly family can be found in Robertson county on the 1880 federal census. However, the Adeline who was enumerated with Miles Kelly in 1880 was younger (born ca 1845 versus 1838), born in Georgia vs. Mississippi, and Mulatto versus White.

21. | Susan Francis Blackburn (3.Alexander2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 8 May 1838 in Marion County, Mississippi; died on 4 Dec 1924 in Texas; was buried in Bronson Cemetery, Bronson, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Email from Bettye Bragg Wagstaff:
Susan Blackburn was the daughter of Alexander S. Blackburn and his second wife, Martha Cole.
I have been in touch with a Bickham descendant, and she gave me info on the Bickhams. It seems that Susan and her parents moved to Louisiana (Can't remember the parish right now) where Alexander died and Susan married an unknown Bickham just before the Civil War. Evidently this Bickham was killed in the war, because she then married James Bailey (AKA Baylie) and they came to Texas bringing her two Bickham children and her mother Martha Blackburn. They settled in Sabine County and had several Bailey children. James Bailey did not appear on the census after 1870 so I just assumed he died. Wrong! According to the many Bailey descendents living around here today, James just went back to Louisiana, found him another woman and raised another family. The Bickham children were Hardy Alexander Bickham and Zurada. Hardy is buried in the Rosevine Cemetery and Zurada in Bronson. I have been trying to find out who is buried beside Zurada. No luck so far.
Susan's mother, Martha is buried in Brookland, she died in 1889 while living there with grand- children.
Jackie Bickham writes that Susan Blackburn and her second husband Jasper Newton Bailey were the parents of 1.Hope Bailey 2.Sedonia Bailey 3.Trust Bailey 4.James Franklin Bailey
Family/Spouse: ??? Bickham. ??? was born before 1820; died after 1861. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
Children:
- 83. Hardy Alexander Bickham was born on 3 Apr 1859 in Louisiana; died on 20 Nov 1913 in Texas; was buried in Rosevine Cemetery, Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas.

42. | Alexander Paxton McGrew (9.James3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 1 Mar 1836 in Perry County, Mississippi; died on 29 Dec 1886 in East Feliciana Parish, Louisiana; was buried in Cemetery of Buhler Plains, Zachary, East Baton Rouge Parish, Louisiana. Notes:
Per "The Southern McGrews Grew", he was a Civil War veteran and was captured, but as it was near the end of the war, he was not held long. He lived in Covington Co, MS until the late 1870's, but had to leave after he and a group of men were involved in the murder of Luke Broom. When the law came to arrest him, he asked if he could first feed his oxen, and they consented. He escaped. His brother, Leonard, loaded the family up and took them to Louisiana and they hid out near Baton Rogue. They had 11 children, and he died on 19 December 1886, and was buried in Knox cemetery, The Plains, East Feliciana Parish, LA. His wife died of pneumonia at the home of her son, Robert, on 10 November, 1895 and was buried near Alexander.
Wynema McGrew writes that he enlisted in the Confederate State Army on either 10 Feb 1862 at Williamsburg, Covington County, Mississippi or 1 Feb 1862 at Handsboro, Harrison County, Mississippi. He was a sergeant in Company B, Fourth Cavalry under Capt. Norman. He was paroled in Gainsville, Alabama on 12 May 1865.
Much of the information on this family was supplied by Allye Moody of Natchez, Mississippi

Wynema McGrew notes that Leonard was not easy to get along with, and had been asked by neighbors to move. He was rumored to have killed men, outside of combat, during the Civil War. Bruce Aultman, an attorney living in the Victory community in Lamar County suggested that Leonard was a Jayhawk (Union sympathizer) during the Civil War. He did serve in the Confederate Army, however, enlisting in Capt. H R McLaurin's Company (Co F, 27th Regiment, Mississippi Infantry) on 26 Aug 1861, the same day R. L. McGrew enlisted. He was discharged in Rome, Georgia on 11 Apr 1863 due to wounds to his hip and knee while at Shelbyville, Tennessee. He later served in Company E, 3rd Battalion, Mississippi Reserve Calvary from which he was paroled on May 16, 1865. He was a freemason and baptist for most of his life, but converted to Catholicism late in life, due to his many transgressions and the influence of his eldest daughter, Susanna, who had converted when she married, and Leonard was buried in the Catholic portion of the Williamsburg Cemetery. The cemetery name, per Find A Grave, was the Saint James Catholic Cemetery in Bassfield, Mississippi.
His FindAGrave memorial page, crated by Fred Rose, has a photo of him in uniform and with a bayonet.

74. | Jane Allen (15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 5 Dec 1850 in Sabine County, Texas; died on 6 Jan 1926 in Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Rosevine Cemetery, Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Her middle initial is shown sometimes as C and sometimes as K. It is not known what her actual middle name was.
Nina Fuller always said that her grandmother, Jane (Allen) Fullen was "half Indian." It has not been proved if this is true, or merely a legend. The name ALLEN appears to be of common use among the Cherokees, and perhaps this is where either the actual Indian blood, or legend of Indian blood, came from. The mtDNA of a child of Nina Fuller, a direct female descendant of Jane, was classified as H. This is the most common mtDNA in Europe, and not one associated with Native American lineage. If Jane was part Indian, it was through her father's family, and not in her direct maternal line.
There is a photo of Jane Fullen, presumably taken shortly before her death in 1926, in a black silk bonnet. This bonnet was given by Jane to her granddaughter Nina (Fuller) McLemore. Nina's daughter, Evon Tisdale gave the bonnet to Melinda (McLemore) Strong.
(Research):A photo of her headstone on Find A Grave appears to be incorrect in listing her birthday as 5 December 1849. Blanche Finley Toole showed this instead as 5 December 1850, supported by census records below:

*Jane is the daughter of J.W. Allen by wife Caroline. Jane was born in December 1850, and the 1850 census was taken in October 1850. Therefore, Caroline would have been between 6 and 7 months pregnant at the time of the census. The 1860 census was taken in June, before Jane had reached her 10th birthday.
#The mother of Susan Allen is not known. It does not seem likely that she is the daughter of John's second wife, Margaret Harvey Allen, who had moved back home with their one year old daughter, Mary Allen. Did John have a daughter by a woman other than his then wife, perhaps leading to their separation? Or is Susan perhaps a niece or other family member? Or are Mary/Susan the same child, listed in both households?
His former wife, Margaret, and his daughter Mary are living in another household in 1860, as follows:

214. | Alice A. Fullen (74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 20 May 1881 in Texas; died on 2 Sep 1918 in Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Rosevine Cemetery, Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
According to the following marriage information, Birdwell, R.D. to A.A. Fullen 7 Mar 1898 by W.T. Harvil, M.G. The 1900 Census shows A.A. Fullen to be named Alice A., and that she was born in approximately 1881. I am assuming she is a daughter of John and Jane Fullen, and not of William and Elizabeth Fullen, for the following reasons:
1) There appear to have been only two Fullen Household's in Sabine County in 1881; that of William Fullen and that of John Fullen. It is assumed one of these two men was her father.
2) Alice would have been too young to be listed with either Fullen family in 1880. The census for 1890, when she was age 9, was destroyed. She was married in 1898, so is listed with her husband in 1900. This is why she will not be found listed with either family on census records.
3) According to the Sabine County 1910 Federal Census, John and Jane Fullen had been married for 42 years. They had had 9 children, 7 of whom were still living. By examining other census information, eight of these nine total children can be accounted for. I believe Alice to be the ninth. William and Margaret had also been married for a total of 42 years. They had 6 children, 5 of whom were still living. By examining other census records, all six can be accounted for.
4) On the 1890 Scholastic Census, Lena, 13, Ginnie 11, and Washington 8 were recorded as attending No. 57, Bethany. Surely if Alice were one of their siblings, she would have been in attendance as well. She and Washington were both born circa 1881. By way of contrast, none of the children of John and Jane Fullen were recorded on the 1890 Scholastic Census. Presumably they were needed at home for farmwork.
Alice married Rush David Birdwell on 7 Mar 1898 in Sabine County, Texas. Rush (son of James Andrew Birdwell and Mary Alice Cogburn) was born on 19 Dec 1877 in Milam, Sabine County, Texas; died on 14 May 1966 in Weslaco, Hidalgo County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Newton Historical Commission, Pauline Hines, Compiler "Newton County Nuggests: A Collection of True Stories By Newton County Folk" (Nortex Press, A Division of Eakin Publications, Inc, Austin, Texas, published in 1986), had an article about R. B. Bickham, reprinted from a newspaper article. He was a native of Angelina County and became a progressive leader in the Deweyville area about 1920. His wife, Sallie, was a native of Nacogdoches. Their only daughter is Maxine Bickham Davis. Bickham began his experience in the timber and lumber industry in early boyhood...and was one of the foremost profitable sawmill operators in the Newton County area. He favored progress and generously supported better roads, timber conservation, civic and religious improvements and good schools. He believed in giving a cordial welcome to desirable newcomers. He became a merchant in Deweyvill about 1945 along with his timber operations. On page 361 of the same book it was noted that Richard Bickham's business partner, Hager Davis, later became his son-in-law, and that they operated under contract with Kirby Lumber company. A flood in 1953 almost destroyed this mill, which did not completely shut down until 1954.
The Bickham's were the first residents of Deweyville to install a telephone. Mr. Bickham also built a movie theatre that he operated for three years, operating on Friday and Saturday evenings. (ibid, p. 397)

327. | Ferman Egbert Fullen (204.William5, 73.Margaret4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 18 Jun 1895 in Texas; died on 11 May 1944 in Orange County, Texas. Notes:
I was not able to locate the family of Ferman Fullen in Robert Cecil McDaniel's transcription of the 1920 Sabine County census. However, they were listed on the 1920 Texas Soundex as residents of Sabine County, as follows. The soundex references Vol. 142, ED 170, Sht 3, Line 18. I examined the actual microfilm and did find the family. The microfilm copy was very light and nearly illegible, however. It appears that the soundex information was probably correct.
Per the 1920 Soundex card:
Fullen, Firman E W 24 TX
Fullen, Arlie V. W 24 TX
Fullen, Walter O W son 6 TX
Fullen, Minnie M D dau 5 TX
Fullen, Margurite R dau 2 8/12 TX
Fullen, Mona? M dau 8/12 TX
According to a copy of an obituary for F. E. Fullen, not fully dated or referenced, "ORANGE, May 11--Ferman Egbert Fullen, 48, of Orange, an employee of the Consolidated Steel corporation, died at a local hospital at 7 a.m. Thursday as a result of injuries sustained when he fell several hours earlier at the shipyard. He was working as a carpenter. He was a brother of Otis Fullen, vice president of the Security State bank. He was said to have suffered a skull fracture in a fall into the hold of a ship. Mr. Fullen and family have lived in Orange for about three years. Funeral services awaited contacts with the two sons in the army, one of whom, Arlis Fullen, 19, was awarded the silver star for gallantry during the Tunisian campaign. He later was wounded in Sicily and is now in a hospital at Martinsburg, West Virginia. The other boy in the army Pvt. Marvin Fullen, is stationed at Boise, Idaho.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Arrie Fullen, Orange; three daughters, Mrs. Hubert Deering, Houston; Mrs. J.D. Parker and Mrs. Madye Hennigan, both of Port Arthur; four sons, Walter Fullen, Newton; G.B. Fullen, Orange; Marvin and Arlis Fullen, both in the U.S. Army, three brothers, Otis and William B. Fullen, both of Beaumont, and J. Vertis Fullen, Newton; six sisters, Mrs. Kelly Fogg, New Orleans, Mrs. Charles Atkins, El Paso, Mrs. Basil Kee, Beaumont, Mrs. Ramsay Simmons, Mrs. J.B. Bobbitt, and Mrs. Ramsay Smith, all of Newton.

328. | Otis Edward Fullen (204.William5, 73.Margaret4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 20 Feb 1897 in Bronson, Sabine County, Texas; died on 13 Dec 1970 in Beaumont, Jefferson County, Texas. Notes:
It appears he had married a daughter of Richard and Lillie Davis prior to 1920, and been shortly thereafter widowed.

370. | Alonzo Alkony Fuller (212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 1 Jul 1890 in Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas; died on 20 Dec 1967 in Beaumont, Jefferson County, Texas; was buried in Hemphill City Cemetery, Hemphill, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
In her weekly Sabine County Reporter column, "On the Bright Side", Mary Howell wrote that she remembered Alonzo and Emma Fuller. "Mrs. Emma was a school teacher and she influenced the lives of hundreds of Hemphill students. Alonzo was a carpenter and he built several homes in the Hemphill area including the one hundred and nine year old house that I live in now." (Page 4, July 18, 2007).
The following information was extracted from his obituary: "Lonzo Fuller died at 9 am December 20, 1967 in St. Elizabeth Hospital in Beaumont, where he had been for three weeks. He was a lifelong resident of Sabine County and a member of a pioneer family in this region. He was a retired building contractor. He was survived by his (second) wife, Jeannette Wright Fuller, his daughter Mrs. Lexie Smith of Akron, Ohio, his granddaughter, two brothers Joe and Hermann Fuller both of the Rosevine Community, four sisters Mrs. Nina McLemore of San Augustine, Mrs. Ethly (sic) Eddings of Rosevine, Mrs. Bertha Fuller (sic) of Conroe and Mrs. Tera Coussons (sic) of Carthage. His funeral services were held 2:30 pm Thursday, December 21 in the First Baptist Church in Hemphill. The Reverend Clarence Howell, pastor of the First Baptist Church in Boling, Texas, and the Rev. Tommy Long, pastor of the Newton Church of God, officiated. He was buried in Hemphill cemetery under the direction of Starr Funeral Home. Pallbearers were Leon Adickes, Lon Wright, Oscar Pate, Dan Prado, Joe Howard and Louis McDonald."
According to "A Pictorial History of Sabine County, Texas", Mrs. Alonzo Fuller was a fifth grade teacher at Hemphill in 1941. Per William Kent Anderson, she was a graduate of Stephen F. Austin University. This book instead shows Lonzo's name as Lonzo Alcony Fuller. On one census for Sabine County, he was shown as "Lawrence A" instead of Alonzo. This Federal Census also had the number "2" in the column for U-C Vet. Army/Navy.
(Medical):See attached sources.
Alonzo married Emma May Clark on 1 Apr 1911 in Sabine County, Texas. Emma (daughter of Colistis Bryant Clark and Anna Abigail "Abi" Anderson) was born on 12 Oct 1892 in Sabine County, Texas; died on 9 Jun 1951 in Tyler, Smith County, Texas; was buried on 9 Jun 1951 in Hemphill City Cemetery, Hemphill, Sabine County, Texas.

371. | Nina Ophelia Fuller (212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 15 Sep 1891 in Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas; died on 8 Jul 1980 in Lufkin, Angelina County, Texas; was buried in Rosevine Cemetery, Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Nina Fuller was a striking woman. She was nearly six feet tall and slender. When she unwound her hair from the bun she usually wore, it cascaded down her back almost to her feet. She enjoyed gardening and quilting, growing most of her own vegetables. She was a thrifty woman. She continued to make her own soap from lye, pine rosin and "fat cracklings" even when she could just as easily purchased a bar at the store.
Being the oldest daughter, Nina helped her mother daily with the household chores. She remembers that when she was quite young, her parents went to the State Fair in Dallas by horse and buggy. They came home with a washboard and a box of packaged laundry soap. Nina claims they were the first family in Sabine County to have a washboard, and remembers neighbors coming by on wash day just to see how it worked. The 1940 census indicates she had attended school for six years.
She was a staunch member of the Rosevine Church of God. She truly believed in doing good works, and never turned away anyone in need. Her son Tom remembers that their home was on the "hobo circuit" during the depression. He often passed men asleep on a spare mattress in their garage on his way to school. She fed everyone who came to their door hungry, and made regular visits to the local nursing home to take food to friends and relatives.
Nina Sue Wade, who was a backdoor neighbor to the McLemore family when they lived in town, recalls that her mother relied on her more experienced neighbors parenting advice. The Wade family had several young children, mainly very active boys, with Nina being the oldest. Mrs. Wade worked hard to keep her rambunctious children in line, to no avail. Mrs. McLemore advised her to ignore the minor infractions. Nina Sue recalled her mother often quoting a saying Mrs. McLemore told her, "When your children are young, they step on your shoestrings. When they get older, they step on your heartstrings." She would go on to advise her to cherish her children while they were young and full of spirit, because she would miss them sorely when they were grown and on their own.
After her husband died, Nina McLemore remained an independant woman, living alone in a house her brother Lonzo built for her after her husband died. She lived next door to her son Percy, and her grandson's Dental Office was directly behind her home. She was able to live at home and care for herself until she was in her mid 80's, when she went to live with her daughter Evon.

373. | Brooks John Fuller (212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 1 Mar 1895 in Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas; died on 31 Dec 1918 in Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Although Brooks was said to have died of tuberculosis, he might actually have died in the great Spanish influenza epidemic of 1918. The disease maneuvered its way into the United States by soldiers, nurses and volunteers, viral carriers returning home from contagious flu infested combat zones. On October 31, 1918, the headlines in neighboring Jasper County, Texas read, "Flu Epidemic Raging the Globe--Over 20 Million Deaths Expected--Anti Influenza Vaccines Fail." The epidemic peaked in East Texas during the icy winter of 1918. (Source: Dony Harrison, Jasper NewsBoy January 20, 1999). No death certificate is on file for Brooks or his brother Price, who both died as young men.

374. | Ethel Arlie Fuller (212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 11 Feb 1897 in Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas; died on 12 Aug 1981 in Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Melinda McLemore remembers visiting her Grandaunt, the widowed Ethel Eddings, when she was a young girl. Even something as ordinary as taking a walk with her grandmother Nina and Aunt Ethel became an exciting adventure. Ethel carried her shotgun with her, constantly on the lookout for those "polecats (skunks) and armadillos" that wreaked havoc on her gardens.
Ethel married Grover David Eddings on 31 Oct 1915 in Sabine County, Texas. Grover (son of Sterling W. Eddings and Lyda E. Hutto) was born about 1889 in Texas; died on 15 Feb 1965 in Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

377. | James Herman Fuller (212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 17 Dec 1903 in Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas; died on 4 Aug 1970 in San Augustine, San Augustine County, Texas; was buried on 6 Aug 1970 in Rosevine Cemetery, Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Herman suffered from tuberculosis, and spent some time at a hospital in San Angelo when his children were still young. His wife and their eldest children, ranging in age from 14 to 10 had to bring in the crops while Herman was hospitalized. James Roland Fuller recounted that "what kept us going beyond our own best efforts was the help and encouragement of the good people of the county, especially their friends and neighbors in Rosevine, who came to help work the crops. Many of them pledged one days work each week, as needed, even while busy with their own crops. With their help and the grace of God we were able to survive."
When Herman returned, he was not able to farm. He traded his animals and equipment to a local store owner as a down payment on the store. He also was hired by the Rosevine school district to pick up and deliver students to the school. Ruth also helped at the store. As the years passed, Herman regained enough strength to operate stores and service stations throughout east and southest Texas.
The following obituary was excerpted from the

Ernest ran for Mayor of San Augustine in 1995. He was defeated by Gertrude Lane, the first African American Mayor of that city.
The following paid political advertisement ran in the San Augustine Tribune prior to the election. (13 April 1995):
Some of you have asked "Who is Ernest Easley?" As of April 1, 1995 I have been a resident of San Augustine for eight years. During these eight years, I have been a volunteer worker with Care and Share serving as an interviewer and as president for the past two years.
Having 40 years of business experience and commited to a strong future of San Augustine, I will do my best to represent you as Mayor. My office will be open to you......
Since there are some of you I still do not know, I would like to take this opportunity to tell you something about myself. I was born March 2, 1927 in Hemphill and attended school in Hemphill, Yellowpine (two room school house), and Dallas. After graduation, I served almost two years in the U.S. Army - twelve months of this time in Italy.
After receiving an honorable discharge from the Army, I secured a position with a national finance corporation where I was employed for over 38 years; having worked in Houston, Beaumont, Harlingen, San Antonio, and Dallas. For several years I managed their bank in Dallas.
After retiring and selecting San Augustine as my new home, I cam out of retirement and was elected vice-president/manager of the First National Bank Branch in Broaddus where I served until April, 1989.
I have been married to the former Billie Sue SMITH of Center for 44 years. We have a daughter Patti Easley BOSWELL of DeSoto, Texas and a son Dr. Ernest Lee EASLEY of Odessa, Texas. Also, grandsons and two granddaughters.
After becoming a resident of San Augustine, I joined the First Baptist Church and became active in community affairs. For the past two years, I have served as your City Councilman, Place No. 1. I have served as Chairman of the Leadership Committee and Director of the Economic Development Council. Recently, I was elected Director of Tri-County Community Action, Inc. In my church I have served as church treasurer for seven years, Director of Adult 4 Sunday School Department, served as a member of the Pastor Search Committee, and a member of the Building Committee for our Christian Activities building.
In the December 19, 2002 San Augustine Tribune, p 15, an article was written updating friends on his health. He had been diagnosed with Acute Myleogenous Leukemia in January, and spent 29 days in Chemotherapy at M.D. Anderson, but had not gone into remission. His son, Earnest (sic) Lee Easley, had been pastor of Roswell Street Baptist Church in Marietta, Georgia since February. Daughter Patti, and her husband Charles, had been in Hartsville, South Carolina where he was the pastor of the Lakeview Baptist Church.

Notes:
On the Texas Birth index, she is shown as Yuvonne. All other records (census; birth records for her children) instead show her as Clara Mozelle. Or maybe Yuvonne was a twin that died young?

Gender: Female

Mozelle Hillyer
Mozelle Hillyer, of Fannett, passed into the arms of her Savior on March 4, 2019. She was born on April 17, 1930, to Easuel and Bertie Fullen Clark in Fairmount, Texas. She grew up in a family of nine children, with four other sisters and four brothers.
One of the greatest loves of her life was her family. To say that she was a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother is an understatement. Her heart was so big; and she was so full of life! Mozelle was a friend to everyone she met, and just never met a stranger. She knew the importance of loving God, and loving others, and modelled this for her daughters.
As an adult, there wasn't anything Mozelle couldn't do in business if she set her mind to it. She worked for a while as a real estate agent in the Dallas area, then started her own jewelry retail business while taking side work as a notary public. She became known as "The Jewelry Lady".
She is survived by her two sisters, JoNell LaRoue of Orange, Texas and Reba Barnett of Pineland, Texas; daughters, Sylvia Carlisle and husband, Gary Sr.; Becky Person and husband, Vance; Angela Richardson and husband, Robert, all of Fannett, Texas; grandchildren, Gary Carlisle, Jr. and wife, Kristie, of Midland, Texas; Tara Prestridge and husband, Derek, of Leander, Texas; Bethany Vaccaro and husband, Matthew, of Beaumont, Texas; Hannah Barnett and husband, Zeb, of Beaumont; Stephanie Richardson and Paul Richardson of Fannett; great-grandchildren, Rory Carlisle, Cooper Carlisle, and Tanner Carlisle all of Midland; and Whitney Prestridge and Charleigh Prestridge of Leander; and many nieces and nephews.
Mozelle is preceded in death by her spouse, Jack Hillyer; her parents, Easuel and Bertie Clark; and siblings, Bobbie Hankins, Lavergne Smith, Easuel Clark, Jr., Knox Clark, Doil Clark, and Bill Clark.
The family would like to extend heartfelt appreciation to The Arboretum in Winnie for helping us to take care of our Momma and Mamaw in the last months of her life. We are so grateful for the kindness and tender care each one of the staff showed to her. We would also like to recognize the staff and residents of Atria Collier Park, of Beaumont, where she lived for almost 10 years.
A gathering of Mrs. Hillyer's family and friends will begin 2:00 p.m., with her funeral service to follow at 3:00 p.m., Saturday, March 9, 2019, at Broussard's, 1605 North Major Drive, Beaumont. Her interment will follow at Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Beaumont.

Mom was a devoted, mother, wife, mamalynn, aunt, cousin and friend. And to some strangers, their "angel." Mom was always there anytime she was needed. Only a phone call and drive away. She is the strongest person I know. Even in her illness and final earthly days, she declared, "I dont need medicine; Jesus Christ is all I need!" A woman of unwavering faith. We are so thankful she brought us up in the truth. She was our nurture, rock, shield, best friend, confidant, cheerleader and compass. To this day, she is still pointing us to Christ. Amen. Thank you, Mommy! I thank God for you and miss you every second of every day.

523. | Percy Lavell McLemore (371.Nina6, 212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 11 Jan 1913 in Bronson, Sabine County, Texas; died on 30 Apr 1991 in San Augustine County, Texas; was buried in Liberty Hill Cemetery, Bland Lake, San Augustine County, Texas. Notes:
Vessie McLemore didn't see the importance of naming his children immediately after they were born. He was content to simply call them "baby" until a name seemed to fit. Percy remained Baby for several years, until his parents began to call him "Baby Percy" after a bottle of Patent Medicine popular at the time. His middle initial was shown as "C" on the 1920 census.
Percy started helping his father on the ranch at a very young age. Evon remembers him going on a freight train with cattle to Kansas City, by himself, when he was only 14. He also became a rancher, as well as operating a cotton gin that had been his fathers. He also kept bees as a hobby.
Percy married Elma Callie Smith on 19 Apr 1936 in San Augustine County, Texas. Elma (daughter of Henry Clayton Smith and Alice Hines) was born on 14 Mar 1914 in San Augustine County, Texas; died on 23 Oct 2001 in San Augustine County, Texas; was buried in Liberty Hill Cemetery, Bland Lake, San Augustine County, Texas.

524. | Viola Evon McLemore (371.Nina6, 212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 6 Nov 1914 in Bronson, Sabine County, Texas; died on 18 Oct 2008 in Lufkin, Angelina County, Texas; was buried in Broaddus Cemetery, San Augustine County, Texas. Notes:
Evon was a tiny baby, weighing only 2 and 1/2 pounds a few days after birth. Considering she was born and cared for at home, and not in an incubator, it is a tribute both the Evon's spirit and her mother's loving care that she not only survived but flourished. In describing her infant daughter's size, Nina used to relate that "her face was smaller than a half dollar, and I could have put her in a coffee pot, and still closed the lid." Evon picked out her own name when she was old enough. She liked the sound of Yvonne, but wasn't sure of the spelling. She was listed as Eva V. on the 1920 census.
When Evon started school, she arrived everyday atop a pony led by her brother Percy. Evon's father also thought it important that his daughter be exposed to culture. When she was a young girl, she weekly took the train 10 miles from Steep Creek to Bronson in order to take piano lessons. Most weekends were spent "visiting." Evon has close relations with her many cousins still today.
She attended her primary years of school in rural Sabine County, but attended High School in San Augustine County. Her father paid for her to board at the home of Dr. Davis in the winter, so she could to this. Evon was active in school, perfoming in piano recitals and playing the lead character in the 1932 Senior Class play, "Oh, Kay!"

After Evon graduated from San Augustine High School, she went on to Stephen F. Austin in Nacogdoches. She became a teacher, majoring in Home Economics and minoring in English. The college classmate that was her best friend was Merlene McLemore, a cousin.
Vessie was able to help his daughter get a job teaching in Chinquapin through a friend of his who was school trustee. She later taught in nearby Broaddus.
Soon after Evon started teaching in Broaddus, Dale Tisdale's mother called her son, who was working in Lawrenceville, Indiana, to tell him that "there were some attractive new teachers in town, and he ought to come home soon for a visit." He did, and fell promptly in love with Evon.
Evon continued to teach after her marriage, while Dale managed his parents store. During World War II, Evon moved to Fort Worth while Dale was in the service. She taught a small school district just outside of the city. They also briefly lived in San Antonio. The Tisdale's returned to East Texas, and Dale opened a small general store in Zavalla.
She returned to Stephen F. Austin and received her Master's in Education in 1951. After the Tisdale's moved to Lufkin, Evon obtained a teaching position at Hudson High School. She remained there until she retired in 1972. Her daughter, Jan, began teaching Spanish at the Hudson in 1971, the year before her mother retired.
She loved music, art and the natural world. She had a beautiful soprano voice and was a member of the Angelina County Choir for a number of years. She was good at creative arts, and especially loved China painting. She participated in this after her retirement, as well as traveling with Dale and Bob with the AirStream Travel Trailer club. She was an active member of the Timberland Drive Church of Christ.
Both Evon and Dale were instrumental in the formation of the Angelina County Association for Retarded Citizens (ARC) and supporters of the Lufkin Workshop and Opportunity Center.

525. | Vessie Earl McLemore (371.Nina6, 212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 12 Sep 1916 in Bronson, Sabine County, Texas; died on 30 Apr 1997 in Lufkin, Angelina County, Texas; was buried on 2 May 1997 in Thomas Cemetery, San Augustine County, Texas. Notes:
As a young man, Earl and his brother Ray helped manage their father's ranch in Pearsall. Evon recalls a terrible drought at that ranch one summer. Her brothers told her that they had to use a blowtorch on cactuses to get enough water for the cattle.
He has a military marker at his gravesite "PFC, US Army WW II"
When he was shipped oversees during the war, he and Evon worked out a code so his family would know where he was stationed, because all correspondence was heavily censored. The first letter he sent to Evon was addressed to Mrs. R.O. Tisdale. The next letter, to Mrs. M.E. Tisdale. She knew he must therefore be in Rome. He was later moved elsewhere in Italy, but Evon said she never was able to figure out where because some of the letters came out of sequence, and others never made it home at all.

Earl McLemore, 80, of San Augustine County died Wednesday, April 30, 1997, at Memorial Medical Center of East Texas in Lufkin
McLemore was born Sept. 12, 1916, in Sabine County as a son of the late Nina (Fuller) and Vessie Eugene McLemore. He was a U. S. Air Force veteran of World War II, a farmer/rancher, and a member of the Rosevine Church of God.
Survivors: wife, Velta McLemore of San Augustine County, sons, Donald McLemore of Woodland and Bruce McLemore of Tarkington Prairie; a daughter, Nina Weimer of Spring; two brothers, Lynn McLemore of San Augustine and Tommy McLemore of Houston; a sister, Evon McLemore of Lufkin; five grandchildren; and one great-grandchild.
Funeral services were held May 2 at the Wyman Roberts Funeral Chapel in San Augustine. Interment followed at Thomas Cemetery, San Augustine.
Earl's oldest son Donald wrote the following article about his father for his company newsletter shortly after his father's funeral:
In Memory of My Dad
I remember the lessons well because they were taught without compromise, a deep sense of right and wrong and what was best for his family. Those lessons were sometimes harsh and hard for us kids to understand so we sometimes did the exact opposite from what Dad wanted. Now as I look back, I can see that may of those lessons took root regardless of what we did then.
Dad was born September 17, 1916 into a family of five boys and one girl. His mom and dad were farmers/ranchers, not poor but certainly not rich. I was born in 1940 just after the Great Depression and I know the defining effect that period of time had on everyone. People that endured the depression were so afraid of not having enough that they saved every penny and did without things that we would not think twice about buying today. Due to that experience and the intense drive to be successful, the McLemores developed the reputation of being extremely tight with money and that lesson was passed on to their kids as independence. "With money you can be independent and not have to depend on your family or the government for support." I always said money would not be important to me. However, I see that same independent driven trait in every one of the McLemores today to some extent.
MBM has been in existence for almost twenty seven years. In all those years, I have come in contact with thousands of people, both rich and poor who did not have parents like we were lucky enough to have. They taught us the values that made this country great. I remember Dad's mom (Nina Fuller) saying in front of me one day when Dad was perplexed and seeking advice on how to handle a difficult situation "Earl, regardless of what he does or says it doesn't give you the right to do what is wrong." That phrase along with many others gave our lives direction, focus and nutured the development of character. What is amazing to me now is that it took me until I was in my mid thirties to begin to realize how fortunate my siblings and I were for having learned those lessons.
Dad had four major heart attacks over a three and a half year period. Someone like myself would not have survived the first one. Less than ten percent of his heart still functioned when it finally quit working forever and yet he still did what he loved to do the most and that was to work. "An idle mind is the devils workshop" he used to tell mom when she thought he was working too hard.
When word got out that Dad had gone on to meet his Maker, people from everywhere responded with cards, flowers, phone calls, donations, food and words of comfort to the family. My goal will be to try to pass on those I come into contact with a little part of my Dad.

Notes:
His original Texas Birth Certificate listed him as Dalton McLemore. He was not known by this name as he was growing up, and was dismayed to discover this years later. He told his niece, Melinda, that he legally changed his name to John Lynn. Perhaps he was initially named in honor of his mother's brother-in-law, Dalton Cousins.
The Texas Birth Certificate in the name Dalton showed that he was the sixth living of nine children in total born to his mother.

Starr Funeral Home
Mildred Alyne Fuller Toner,86, our beloved Mother, passed away on Monday, February 7, 2011 at Baptist Orange Hospital in Orange, Texas. She peacefully departed this life with her devoted family by her side.
Mildred was born in Rosevine, Texas on January 12, 1925 she was the eldest child of James Herman Fuller and Ruthie Mae McCroskey.
Mildred grew up in Sabine County and graduated from Rosevine High School as Valedictorian. In order to attend Texas Women's University in the fall she also continued for six more weeks of instruction at Pineland High School and graduated from there as well. After a year of attending college at Denton, TX, Mildred transferred to Stephen F. Austin and continued college to become an educator. Unfortunately, World War II began and Mildred was needed to teach school at Brooklyn High School because many teachers were drafted.
Mildred left there, as many young women did, and joined the war effort by moving to Dallas to work in an aircraft factory and later to Beaumont to work at Bethlehem Steel. During the intervening war years she met her sweetheart, Francis James (Buddy) Toner in Beaumont, Texas, while working in the office at the port. Following the war, Mildred joined Buddy in Indianapolis , Indiana where he was attending Butler University and they were united in marriage. She became a part of an extended and loving Irish family. Buddy transferred to Texas A & M University where he would study to become a mechanical engineer. They left College Station to live in Beaumont, TX where in the early years of her marriage Mildred would quit her teaching job at Chenier Business College to become a fulltime mom. Mildred and Buddy would travel the United States as he worked for various companies as an engineer and plant manager. Finally ending up back in Orange, Texas they bought a home and enjoyed raising and educating their five children. As her children all entered school, not one to be idle, she held various jobs working in the offices at Sears, JC Penney and her son-in-law Michael Mazzola's Insurance office.
Always a lover of knowledge, when her oldest children began college she again felt an urge for higher education and attended Lamar University. She also felt it was very important to give back to the communities in which she lived and was a member of the Red Cross as a Gray Lady at Orange Memorial Hospital and a lifetime member of the PTA supporting teachers and education.
Mildred was a member of the Church of God her entire life, a devoted Christian, who participated fully at the churches in Orange and Rosevine (in later years) holding secretarial and Sunday school leader positions. After the death of her husband she built a home in Rosevine on the land where she was born. While living in Rosevine she worked as an Avon saleslady who achieved the Silver Circle Status within the company.
During her years in Orange and Rosevine she was always there to help care for and cheer on her children and grandchildren assisting her family in every way possible. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, Francis James Toner, two sisters: Narvalyn Ellison, and Ola Jean Ford, four bothers: Conrad Fuller, Bobby Joe Fuller, and David Fuller and Kenneth Fuller. Those left to survive Mildred are her children: John Brendan Toner (Melaine) of Rosevine, Kathleen Ruth Toner Mazzola (Michael), Mary Camille Toner Fuller (Preston) and Frances Patrice Toner Lewis (Eddie) of Orange and Ramona Jean Toner Darnley (John) of The Woodlands. Also surviving are three brothers: Roland Fuller (Betty) of Nacogdoches, Herman Fuller (Jr.)(Charlene) of Rosevine, and Francis Dwain Fuller (Oquilla) of Houston. She is also survived by her beloved Uncle Ray McCroskey (Cortez) of Sarepta, LA.
Mildred leaves behind her 16 beloved grandchildren: Jack, Hunter, Shane, Chad, Rebel, Brendan, Amy, Amber, Jennifer, April, Patrice, Michael, Nick, Alex ,Tara, and Frank, and her 17 adorable great-grandchildren.
Funeral services will be Saturday, February 12 at 2:00 PM at Starr Funeral Home in Hemphill, TX. The family will be receiving friends from 10 AM until the funeral begins. Interment will follow in Rosevine Cemetery.

578. | Joe Donald Alford (421.Jesse7, 285.Jesse6, 162.Jesse5, 50.Frances4, 10.Harriet3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 26 Mar 1949 in Jefferson County, Texas; died on 26 May 2016 in Beaumont, Jefferson County, Texas; was buried in Saint Marys Cemetery, Hearne, Robertston County, Texas. Notes:
Joe Alford, a small-town lawyer known for valuing people more than money, died May 26, 2016 at the age of 67.
His wife of 46 years, Charlotte, was with him at his death and as he went through months of cancer treatments.
In an age of lawyers advertising on billboards and television, Joe didn't even have a sign on his Orange office. People found him, often by referral. His law office for nearly 35 years was a small old building across the street from the Orange County Courthouse. In recent years he added a front porch with rocking chairs. Dozens of people tell stories of how he never sent them a bill for his work.
He considered working as legal counsel for public entities a donation to the community. At times he turned down offers of pay raises from the entities. He was the original attorney for the Orange County Appraisal District, dating back to 1979 and continued in the position until his death.
He was the City Attorney for the City of West Orange and previously was the Municipal Judge. In addition, he represented the Little Cypress-Mauriceville CISD and the Mauriceville Municipal Utility District. He had once been counsel for the West Orange-Cove CISD and advised the Deweyville ISD for more than 20 years.
His legal work including representing criminals on trial for capital murder and elderly widows probating wills. He handled divorces, name changes and adoptions. Every client found a shoulder to cry on, sympathy and a lifelong friend.
Even though he represented the accused in the courtroom, law enforcement officers respected him because he showed them respect.
Joe was born in Port Arthur to J.D. and Joann Alford.
He grew up in West Orange and was a 1967 graduate of the old West Orange High School. He and Charlotte Duhon began dating when they were in high school and married in 1970.
He worked his way through Lamar University as an orderly at Orange Memorial Hospital in the days before hazmat medicine. If a patient came in bleeding, the orderlies went home with blood on their clothes. It didn't matter to him. Helping came first.
The experience made him want to go into hospital administration. But his grandfather in Hemphill, Judge Beauchamp, talked him into studying law. That influence affected generations of people in Orange County who turned to him for advice and help.
Joe is a graduate of the University of Houston's Bates School of Law. He and Charlotte worked to pay for his studies.
After graduating and passing the bar, he returned to Orange and became a prosecutor in the office of then-District Attorney Sharon Bearden. He later left for a private practice with Wayne Peveto, who at the time was also the state representative for the county. Joe later went into his own practice.
He loved books, music and baseball cards. State District Judge Dennis Powell said Joe always pursued knowledge and the meaning of life. Besides keeping up with the latest legal case law, Joe could polish off two or more books a week. He was always ahead of the musical trends and recommended artists before they became famous. His expertise on baseball cards, along with his collection, was legendary.
He also loved the game of baseball. He coached youth baseball for his son and in recent years coached his great-nephews and nieces in the sport. As a surprise to many, he even ventured into coaching youth soccer. One of his last joys in life was seeing his three-year-old grandson Ronan slug a baseball off a tee.
Joe and Charlotte followed the West Orange-Stark Mustangs and have been football season ticket-holders in the same seats for 40 years.
Funeral services will be at 1pm Monday, May 29, 2016 at First United Methodist Church, 502 North Sixth Street in downtown Orange.
A visitation will begin at 11am before the funeral.
Entombment will follow at Saint Mary's Cemetery on Meeks Drive.
Pallbearers will be Wade Smith, Ed Smith, Rex Peveto, Eric Peveto, Barry Jones and Brent Alford.
Honorary pallbearers are Sharon Bearden and retired State District Judge Pat Clark.
His survivors, besides his wife, are his mother, Joann Alford of West Orange, son Joseph of Los Angeles and daughter and son-in-law, Laura and Sam Watters of Orange, along with grandson Ronan Watters. Also surviving are sisters, Judy Sher of St. Louis and Kay Jones and husband Barry of Tyler, Texas, plus brother, Brent Alford and wife Michelle of Fort Worth. Also, sister-in-law Juanita Smith of Orange and numerous nieces and nephews, Jami Nemec, Kara and Scott James, Derek and Sarah Jones, Lindsey and Jonathan Bolton, Josh Alford, Holden Alford, Wade and Julie Smith and Ed and Kathy Smith.

719. | Robert Dale Tisdale (524.Viola7, 371.Nina6, 212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 23 Feb 1957 in Lufkin, Angelina County, Texas; died on 24 Aug 2012 in Lufkin, Angelina County, Texas; was buried in Broaddus Cemetery, San Augustine County, Texas. Notes:
Robert Tisdale was born with Down's Syndrome. This fact never prevented him from being a loving and much loved son. Evon continued to teach school while she and Dale cared for their son at home. Bob attended Hudson High School, while his mother taught there. He graduated from Lufkin High School. Bob participated in numerous Special Olympics.
While working at the sheltered workshop in Lufkin, Bob took the bus every weekday to work. Evon reported that he was an extremely conscientious worker. She could never convince him to miss a day of work, even if he was sick. He would always insist on reporting for work, and would return home only when his supervisor made him go back home to go to bed.
In September, 1997, Evon wrote to her niece Melinda Strong: "I have placed Bob on a waiting list to go into a group home. There is such a long waiting list it may be two years before they can take him. Don't know is I can live without him. He helps take care of me now." Jan helped her mother move Bob to a group home in Beaumont in the summer of 1998. In a phone conversation with her niece in August, 1998, Evon reported that Bob seemed very happy in this new home, and continued to go to work daily at another sheltered workshop. Bob is able to go home to visit his mother at least one weekend each month.
Obituary
Robert 'Bob' Dale Tisdale, 55, was born February 23, 1957 in Lufkin, Texas, the son of Dale and Evon (McLemore) Tisdale. He passed away August 24, 2012 in Castle Pines Retirement Home. Throughout his life, everyone recognized that Bob was very special. When you met him, he greeted you with a handshake, a big smile on his face and, more than likely, he was going to tell you about Jesus. Bob was a man of great faith and Jesus was number one in his life. His whole being reflected his faith and his joyful praise changed the whole atmosphere of any gathering. Throughout his life he touched so many lives and shared the love of Jesus with so many, that today as he has come face to face with his Jesus, he is no doubt hearing, 'Well done, my faithful son'. The family would like to express a special thank you to the Burke Center, Castle Pines Retirement Home, Heart-to-Heart Hospice, and all of the many healthcare professionals and caregivers that gave such tender loving care to Bob. The surviving family includes his sister and brother-in-law, Janet and A. E. 'Pete' Peterson of Lufkin; niece, Sheryl Falk and husband Richard Retz of Houston; nephew, Lee J. Rawcliffe and his daughter Emily of Houston; uncle, Thomas McLemore and wife, Bonnie, of Houston; and many cousins, other relatives and a host of friends. He is preceded in death by his parents, Dale and Evon Tisdale. Funeral services will be held on Monday, August 27, 2012 at 2:00 p.m. in the Gipson Funeral Home Chapel with Harold Hancock, Minister, officiating. Visitation will be held on Sunday afternoon, August 26, 2012 from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Gipson Funeral Home.

720. | Donald Earl McLemore (525.Vessie7, 371.Nina6, 212.Viola5, 74.Jane4, 15.Caroline3, 2.Elizabeth2, 1.Gabriel1) was born on 26 Jan 1940 in San Augustine, San Augustine County, Texas; died on 7 Sep 2016 in North Zulch, Madison County, Texas; was buried in Houston National Cemetery, Houston, Harris County, Texas. Notes:
The following is excerpted from a cover story in "Services: The Magazine for the Building Service Contracting Industry" Volume XIV, Number 1, January 1999.
PROFILE: BSCAI's New President Donald McLemore, CBSE McLemore Building Maintenance, Inc.
Donald McLemore, CBSE, heads a major Southwest building service company. This year, he will lead the Building Service Contractors Association International. In this interview, McLemore describes his company, his philosophy, and his vision for BSCAI and the industry.
How did McLemore Building Maintenance get started? I first arrived in Houston in 1964 with $35 in my pocket and no automobile. After several types of jobs, sometimes three at the same time, I settled down to the pick up and delivery of laundry and dry cleaning for almost five years. However, I had been raised in an entrepreneurial family, and was continually looking around for something I could do on my own. We looked at a washeteria, a fast food restaurant, a bar, a laundry, and a fishing marina. I told Torah Lee---I got married in 1966--that I could be the fishing guide and she could run the store and take care of the bait. She didn't seem to like that idea or the one about owning a bar. She said I would drink up all the profits. Early one morning I was picking up Dr. Walker's office laundry, and he was complaining about his cleaning service. I told him that I could do what he needed done if he would let me try. He gave me the job and a week later I had bought several other small accounts from another contractor. That was September 1, 1970. The first month's total billing was $513.50 but we did all the work so it was a pretty good profit. Married, two very young children, a brand new home, and on July 3, 1971, I gave up the laundry business and went into the janitorial industry full time. It was one of the hardest decisions I ever had to make but one that I have never regretted.
MBM is a family-owned and run business. What roles or positions do your family members fill? Torah Lea retired after 26 years in January 1997 but still comes in whenever we are short-handed. Keith, our oldest son, started sweeping floors in our warehouse 12 years ago, and has been the Houston Operations Manager for the past five years. Curtis, our youngest son, came on board five years ago in Special Services and is Director of Marketing and Sales today. Stephanie, Curtis's wife, is the MBM Office Manager. Evita, Keith's new wife, started as an assistant to the Human Resources Manager. Then there is Nina, my sister. She is the Executive Secretary and has been with us for 13 years. Of course, there are many others who are just like my kids whom have been here for years.....Last year's BOMA Building of the Year in Houston was cleaned by MBM for Trammel Crow. We clean and cut the yards on several hundred phone company buildings in three states. A chemical plant that is spread out over six thousand acres with 124 buildings...

Michael excelled in sports and hoped to become a coach after finishing college. He enlisted in the United States Air Force at the age of 18, and planned to attend college with the G.I. Bill after completing his term of service. He played on several base teams, and at Kelly AFB played softball, basketball, and football. Michael's death came without warning, following a base softbally game. He had not been sick, and at 6'2' and 180 lbs. he was the picture of health. After his death, the Baker Flight team dedicated its season to his memory, and all players wore his number on their shoulder. There was standing room only at the Rosevine Church of God for his memorial service, some of his military friends came from as far away as Idaho.
A Mike Fuller Memorial Fund was established in San Augustine to raise money for the local little league, and the ball field where Mike played his last game was named the "Mike Fuller Memorial Field."
