Notes:

From OLD TIMERS OF SABINE COUNTY, TEXAS by Virgie Speights

WILL TATOM March 28, 1963

When Will Tatom celebrated his 89th birthday Sunday, more than 150 persons attended the annual all-day celebration. A new 50 foot long table had been built in the yard of his home near Pineland, where he has lived for the past 50 years. Fifty-four of his 70 descendants were present including all nine of his children.

Mr. Tatom was in the midst of all the hubbub, chipper as could be, greeting friends and relatives from far and near, including several sets of twins these being scattered throughout the family. The little Saver twins, exactly 85 years younger than he, perched one on each knee while he remembered about his early life.

Born in the community in which he has lived his whole life, just southwest of Hemphill, he told of his early ancestors being early Sabine County settlers. His mother, the former Ella Dent, was a native of Georgia, but his father, Samuel Plummer Tatom was born at old Sabinetown, of parents who came from Mississippi. The family claims Indian ancestry, and Mr. Tatom does seem to possess the dignified bearing of an Indian chief.

Mr. Tatom has the reputation of being a steady, enthuisiastic worker. His first job was hauling freight by wagon and mule team before the days of railroads in Hemphill. He hauled freight from Many, Louisiana and Bronson, Texas for the early Hemphill merchants, including Ed Pratt, J.O. Toole and Taylor Morris. He still remembers the day he made his biggest paycheck. From Bronson he rushed to a printing press to Hemphill and then sped back to Bronson with a gasoline motor. For this long day's work, he received the magnificant sum of $10, which was really a handsome sum in those days.

Most of his livilhood was earned on the farm and he owned quite a sizable portion of land in his community, his holdings stretching from near Hemphill to quite close to Pineland.

As each of his children married, he gave 40 acres as a wedding present. For the boys, he added a horse. All except two of his children still live in this area, in the Pinehill and Plainview communities. Mrs. Ola Kemp, a daughter lives in Beaumont, Texas, and W. C. Tatom, a son, lives in Buna, Texas.

Mrs. Vernon Dubose, her husband and two children, live with her father in the old home. The others, who live near are Dewey, Elmon, Clyde, Claude, Grady, and Mrs. Edna King.

Mr. Tatom married Miss Delia White, also a native of Pinehill, in 1896. She died in 955, after 59 years of marriage.

(Medical):Senelity, Diabetes Mellitus

Samuel married Harriet Adelia "Delia" White on 7 Jan 1896 in Sabine County, Texas. Harriet (daughter of Amazia Vardeman "A. V." White and Ary Adney "Addy" Davidson) was born on 19 Dec 1874 in Pine Hill, Pineland, Sabine County, Texas; died on 6 Mar 1955 in Pineland, Sabine County, Texas; was buried on 7 Mar 1955 in Spring Hill Cemetery, Hemphill, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Joella married John Edward Partin on 14 Oct 1896. John (son of Alexander C. Partin and Drucilla Cordelia White) was born on 5 Mar 1876 in San Augustine County, Texas; died on 24 Apr 1917 in Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Spring Hill Cemetery, Hemphill, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

A digital image of his actual Texas Death certificate is viewable online at FamilySearch.org, Texas Deaths, 1890-1976. At the time of his death he was married and his home address was Sour Lake, Texas. He was listed as a farmer, and the son of Plummer Tatom and Ella E. Dent. The informant was Lee Roy Tatom, son.

Kay Parker McCary, on her annotated transcription of the Spring Hill Cemetery, instead shows him as the son of Isaac Walter Tatom and Anna Mariah Ener, and furhter shows that he married Lillie M. Bonneau.

Notes:

Paul Maurice Beauchamp, 85, died Thursday, January 28th, 2016 surrounded by family at his home in Houston. Until the last moments of his life his bright mind and famous wit kept all around him smiling and comforted.

He leaves behind the joy of his life, his wife of almost 63 years, Paula Low Beauchamp; their children: son Dr. Ray Beauchamp and his wife Ann of Richmond, VA, son Bob Beauchamp and his wife Laura, daughter Virginia Beauchamp Gray and her husband Melvin, and daughter Mary Beauchamp Chenoweth of Houston, TX; grandchildren: Rachel Beauchamp, Paul Beauchamp and his wife Bronwyn, Lee Beauchamp, Jack Beauchamp and his wife Hayley, Tom Beauchamp and his wife Christina, George Beauchamp, Jim Beauchamp, John Chenoweth and his wife Courtney, and William Chenoweth; also beloved in-laws Mary Lou Low of Houston, and Buddy Low of Beaumont and many beloved nieces and nephews, [children of Joann and J. D. Alford??] cousins and friends.

He was preceded in death by his father Judge O. A. Beauchamp of Hemphill TX, his loving mother Vergie McGown Beauchamp of Milam TX, his older brother Ray Alonzo Beauchamp, who died tragically before Paul's birth, and his beloved son-in-law Jay Douglas Chenoweth.

Paul Beauchamp was born in his childhood home in Milam, Texas on September 4th, 1930. He grew up an outdoorsman hunting and fishing and playing every sport in school. His love of the outdoors endured as he spent as much time as he could hunting and fishing and golfing with his children, grandchildren, and lifelong best friend and cousin, Bob Roper of San Augustine, TX.

He met "the most beautiful girl in Texas", Paula Low during their high school years in Sabine County, Texas. Paul attended Hemphill High School, and Paula attended San Augustine High School, and their romance grew into true love while they both attended Stephen F. Austin State University. They married on February 14, 1953 and moved to Houston, Texas after Paul volunteered to join the Air Force. In the Air Force, Paul quickly moved up to become a Senior Control-Tower Operator at Ellington Air Force base. He took great pride in his service from 1952 - 1956.

After the Air Force, Paul joined Gulf Supply Company in Beaumont, TX where he would spend many decades. He was hired by its founder, Roy Maness whom he respected and loved. Paul moved up through the training program from the warehouse, through sales and management. Ultimately, he became Executive Vice President, of the parent company, Gulf Consolidated Inc., as well as President of Gulf Alloy Inc.

After Gulf Consolidated was sold, Paul and other executives with whom he had grown up at Gulf Supply worked together at other companies and ventures, but Gulf Supply was to always be in his heart. Paul loved his alma mater, SFA, and was proud to have served, as president of the 'Sawyers' while a student, and later, among other things, as president of the Alumni Association. He was awarded a Distinguished Alumni Award from SFA in the year 2000.

Paul had, and still has, many strong friendships. He was a man's man, a loving tender father and husband, fiercely loyal, and a hard-working successful businessman. He was tough as nails, easy to cry, and naturally gifted beyond all others around him with a wit that was amazing to behold. He had a strong private faith and relationship with Christ in whose arms, we are comforted to know, he now rests free of pain. He loved his wife above all others and never once gave her a reason to doubt that beautiful reality. We miss you, Dad.

Funeral services will be held at 1:00pm on Friday February 5, 2016 at Wyman Roberts Funeral home in San Augustine, TX. The family will receive visitors before the service from 11:30am-1:00pm. Burial will follow at the McGown Family Cemetery in Milam, TX.

Plans are also being made for a memorial service at Cypress United Methodist Church on Tuesday, February 16, 2015 at 11 a.m.

In lieu of usual remembrances, the family asks that memorial contributions be directed to Cypress United Methodist Church 13403 Cypress N. Houston Rd, Cypress, Texas 77429 or to the Paul and Paula Beauchamp Scholarship at Stephen F. Austin P.O. Box 6096 Nacogdoches, TX 75962.

Pallbearers will include, Paul Beauchamp; Jack Beauchamp; John Chenoweth; Tom Beauchamp; Lee Beauchamp; George Beauchamp; William Chenoweth and Jim Beauchamp. Honorary Pallbearers will include, Buddy Low; Bob Roper; Gene Nethery; Bob Sitton; Jerry Jones; Ned Germany; Keith Dorman and John Meeks.

Bio written and posted by Ronald Barlow, on his Farm Road 1 - From one end to the other facebook group:

There'll never be another George Jacks.

George was one of the smartest and most reliable men I've ever worked with.

It didn't take me long to figure out that if I had a mechanical problem that I couldn't solve, whether it be on a car or truck, or a tractor, or a hay baler, just ask George to look at it.

George was not much of a team player.
He flew solo most of the time.

His mind was too focused and worked too fast to be patient enough to tolerate the foolishness of us who lacked the ability to focus only on the task at hand to see it through to completion with no distractions.

I believe that if George had survived long enough to have been under a car hood at the time of the Rapture, that he would have asked Jesus for a few more minutes to finish torqueing some bolts.

Me and George worked well together.

If something mechanical or electronic didn't do what it was designed to do, I'd tell George what I had seen or heard or felt or smelt right before something quit working, and then take maybe a few more seconds to tell him what I had ruled out as the culprit.

...and then I backed out of the way and waited on this genius to ask me for assistance...which wasn't very often.

George didn't like anybody hovering over his shoulder.

Nor, did he like taking directions from people that liked barking orders.

Tell him what you knew about the problem, then back off and let him at it.

A couple of years ago, my old Dodge pickup wouldn't crank in the high school parking lot at Pineland.It was late at night, and as usual, I was the last one leaving, because I had stood around talking too long after the meeting was over.

My battery was strong and the engine turned over just fine, and after a quick check under the hood, I ascertained that the spark plugs were firing.

There was a quarter-tank of gas in the tank...and I hadn't noticed anything unusual pulling in earlier that evening.

I called George.

Other than the time it took him to get out of his recliner, put on his overalls and his shoes, and drive the two or three miles to Pineland, he had me headed home within two or three minutes after his arrival...with a hammer tap to the bottom of the fuel pump, which was inside the gas tank, underneath the pickup bed.

A call to almost anybody other than George would have eventually involved a chain or a tow truck, lifting the bed off the truck frame, replacing the fuel pump, many hours of labor, a big bill, and me being afoot for at least a full day.

I gave George a $20 bill and we were both back in our recliners within ten or fifteen minutes.

George was hard-headed. He wouldn't waste time doing something useless just because someone else thought they knew more than him.

George didn't waste words.
When he spoke, I listened.
I knew that he wasn't going to say it twice, and it was well thought out before he said it.

It didn't matter what we were working on, George was the master and I was the assistant.
I might be the boss of the fifty other people working around us, but I was just the apprentice handing tools, or turning keys, or pushing clutches or running for parts for George.

It worked much better that way.

I know other folks that couldn't work with George.
Some called him "contrary" or "ornery."
Most never learned to leave the chit-chat or b.s. aside until the work was done.

Others besides me that knew the value of having a "George" around, included Frank Shaver, Welden Elliott and Don Tate. George helped us get to where we got.

I called him often.
?and always got the right answer.

I'll be lost for a time without George.
I know plenty of good mechanics, but none like George.
I miss you already, George. I hope the Good Lord's got a set of tools waiting for you.

Aubra George Jacks, 65, of Pineland, Texas passed away Tuesday, January 22, 2019 at his residence.

George was born December 23, 1953 in Pineland, Texas to Marvin Edward Jacks and Elease Tatom Jacks.

He was a lifetime resident of Sabine County and a graduate of West Sabine High School.
He was a Master Mechanic for West Sabine ISD.

George had also been a member of the Pineland Volunteer Fire Department for several years and had also been a member of the Bronson VFD and the FFA.

George enjoyed spending time with his family and their trips to Disney World. He also enjoyed reading and studying science, math, and history.

George is survived by his mother, Elease Tatom Barrow; son, Justin Chandler and wife, Audrey, of Leesvile, Louisiana (formerly of Fairmount); daughter, Breanne Jacks and fiance', Robbie Schauer, of Justin, Texas; brother, Benny Edward Jacks of Pineland, Texas; sisters, Marcell Jacks Gilbert and Billie Barrow Simpson, both of Pineland, Texas; and two grandchildren, Cason and Colton.
