    Sorry for the delay, I have been finding more details on this family. Of the children of James Stewart Hanks, this has been probably the most challenging one to sort out. James W Hanks and Marium Hughes married 26 Mar 1854 in Richland County, Illinois. They are in Gibson Co., IN for the 1860 census with son William, age 4 and son Joel A. age 8/12. I have never found this family in the 1870 census. This created a big problem because James W died 10 Aug 1870 and Marium died 27 Feb 1872. The children were placed in different families and have been difficult to track. Probate and guardianship records helped to finally get all the children sorted out. Here is the list of children with notes about what I have been able to find.

    1) William M Hanks b. Apr1855 d.???? aft.1900
    1860 census w/ parents age 4
    1870 census not found
    18 Feb 1879 married Louisa Woods in Gibson Co, IN (not sure what happened w/Louisa but no indication of any children.)
    1880 census Gibson County, William and Louisa and Wesley P Hanks, brother age 10
    19 Aug 1886 married Ellen Kendle in Gibson Co,IN (it appears she was previously married to Hiram Kendle. I have not found her maiden name)
    1900 census - William was in White county, IL listed as servant, marital status - divorced (He is in the previous household to J S Hanks)
    Note Ellen Kendle Hanks was living with her son Robert Kendle in Gibson Co. Marital status - divorced. Shows she had 4 children - 2 living. I have found no evidence that any of those children were from William
    Other notes - from church records of Columbia Baptist Church, Gibson, Co.,IN William Hanks joined the Columbia Baptist Church by baptism on 7 May 1876. He was excluded 31 Mar 1883. The church minutes state "He did not think himself worthy to live in the church." William Hanks joined by relation on 2 May 1888. He was dismissed on account of disorder on 2 Jan 1892.

    1860 census w/parents in Gibson Co age 8/12
    1870 census not found
    1880 census - Gibson Co, IN in household of Benj. Skelton (he was administrator of estate when Marium died, no relation that I know of. Both the Hanks and Skelton families were very active in the Columbia Baptist church. Note of interest, "Red" Skelton was a descendant of Benjamin Skelton.)
    1889 died in Gibson Co
    No known marraige or children. He was a bit of a puzzle to figure out.
    In the 1880 & 1860 census he was named Joel. In the probate records for James Stewart Hanks and in the Guardianship records he was variously referred to as Joseph A, Joseph Archibald , Archibald or Archie.
    Other notes - from church records of Columbia Baptist Church Archie Hanks joined the Columbia Baptist Church (aka White Church) by baptism on 19 Jun 1875. He was dismissed 'by letter' , no date given.

    "I have information on this family. This was John Stewart (or Steward) Hanks, son of James W Hanks and Marium Hughes. John S Hanks was born July 1865 in Indiana, probably Gibson County. I don't have a date of death for him. He married Annie B Brown, 8 Aug 1889 in Gibson County, Indiana. She was born July 1870. I do not have her date of death either."

    Email from Ron Hanks (ronhanks@earthlink.net) on August 13, 2006:

    Sorry for the delay, I have been finding more details on this family. Of the children of James Stewart Hanks, this has been probably the most challenging one to sort out. James W Hanks and Marium Hughes married 26 Mar1854 in Richland County, Illinois. They are in Gibson Co., IN for the 1860 census with son William, age 4 and son Joel A. age 8/12. I have never found this family in the 1870 census. This created a big problem because James W died 10 Aug 1870 and Marium died 27 Feb 1872. The children were placed in different families and have been difficult to track. Probate and guardianship records helped to finally get all the children sorted out. Here is the list of children with notes about what I have been able to find.

  5. 19.  Grace Ferris Hanks Descendancy chart to this point (12.Alvin3, 5.John2, 1.James1) was born about 1914 in Oklahoma.

    Notes:

  6. 20.  Johnnie Mae Hanks Descendancy chart to this point (12.Alvin3, 5.John2, 1.James1) was born on 2 May 1916 in Oklahoma; died on 10 Jan 2012 in Hamilton, Ravalli County, Montana.

    Notes:

    HAMILTON - Johnnie Mae Leonard, 95, died peacefully at home Jan. 10, 2012. Born Jonamae Hanks on May 2, 1916 in Lawton, Okla. to Medreth Elberta Vaughan and Alvin Roscoe Hanks, she was the second of eight children. She often told of how she and her older sister, Grace, had to care for the younger children. "I guess it gave us good practice," she said.

    She married Curtiss Jaquess in 1934 and in 1935 bore a lovely curly-haired daughter, Flo Lorene. That marriage did not last, and in 1936 she married her first love, Richard Grafton Leonard of Savanna, Okla., a soldier at Fort Sill. A son, Patrick Richard, was born in 1937 and another daughter, Jan Christine, in 1941. The family was stationed around the South, and then in Panama where Jan was tragically killed shortly before her sixth birthday. Johnnie Mae carried that sorrow the rest of her life. Another son, Tony Mack, was born in 1948.

    In 1949 the family left Panama for Montana. Based first in Great Falls, then Missoula, Rich and Johnnie Mae came to love Montana. They bought an old cabin near Fort Fizzle just west of Lolo and lived there, raising chickens, bees, and a few cows, delicious strawberries and a large garden. While in Lolo, Johnnie Mae bought a rug loom and began to weave wool rag rugs. She carpeted the house. Though she had started her first quilt at 15, it wasn't until Great Falls that she began to quilt in earnest. Her beloved Grandma Annie sent quilt tops and Johnnie Mae made warm quilts for the cold Montana winters. In the ensuing years she made more than 150 quilts, all "hand-did." Many of us sleep under her warm, durable works of art and love and enjoy walking on warm wool rugs.

    After Rich retired from the Air Force, and went to work for the Forest Service, he, Johnnie Mae and Tony moved to Hamilton. They built a house in 1965, and there Johnnie Mae lived until she died. She loved the views from her windows. In later years, she'd look out and say, "I look out at the green trees, blue sky, white clouds and the mountains and I think, Sure beats Oklahoma!" After Rich died in 1977 Johnnie Mae continued on. She traveled with her sisters and their husbands some, but mostly she stayed home reading, quilting, making rugs, and enjoying friendships. Always stubborn, intelligent, talented and hard-working, Johnnie Mae had a great laugh. The Hanks girls loved to laugh, and when they got together the joy was contagious. Sadly, in later years, dementia took hold. "My memory glands are drying up fast," she'd say. With the help and support of family, she was able to stay in her own home, as she had wished.

    She is predeceased by her parents, her husband, daughter Jan Christine; sisters Annabelle Lewis and Georgia Dyer; brothers Teddy Warren Hanks and Del Dexter Hanks, and most of her friends. She is survived by sisters Grace Linville of California, Nadine Swindells (Mel) Kentucky, and Nancy Hale of Oklahoma. Also by daughter Lorene Hunter (Larry) of Oregon; sons Patrick Leonard (Toddy Perryman) of Corvallis, and Tony Leonard (Jill) of Utah. Grandchildren are Chris Kashmir-Green (Dennis Green) of Oregon, Eve Dixon (Charlie), of Kalispell, Matt Leonard (Cheryl) of Idaho, Morna Leonard of Hamilton, Marcus Leonard (Robin Brown) of Washington, and Tyson Robinson of Alaska. Great-grandchildren are Lisa Owens (Mark) and Jamie Bevandich (Kari), Alix and Kyle Dixon, Nathan and Pieter Leonard, and Brendan Leonard. Great-great-grandchildren are Taylor, Caden, and Jarod Bevandich. She is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews and by long-time friends Colleen Powell and Nadine Mackey of Hamilton and Olive Shuck of Glendive. The family would like to thank the excellent caregivers who helped Johnnie Mae in her last months.

    A gathering and celebration of Johnnie Mae's life will be held in Hamilton in May.
