4. | Robinson "Robertson" Bean (1.John1) was born about 1823 in Edgefield County, South Carolina; and died. Notes:
First name variously shown as Robson/Robinson/Roberson/Robertson/Robert Bean.
Said to have married Jerusha Wilmoth Reece/Reese, and they had a large family.
Newton County Historical Committee, , "Glimpses of Newton County History," p 168, notes that Robinson Bean, eldest son of John and Jane, was tall, hardy, had red hair and blue eyes. Most all of the early Bean settlers had fair complexions, red hair and blue eyes. The Bean men seemed to have inherited tendencies to be marksmen with firearms and to have deep set eyes and heavy eyebrows. His name appeared on the 1860 Jasper County, Texas census, as a farmer, age 37. His wife was Jerusha REESE, born in Georgia, age 38. They had nine children, four boys and five girls. In 1864, he bought a five hundred acre tract of land in Newton County from Emily CONN for $310. He had been living previously in Jasper County, probably near Magnolia Springs. Robinson served in Company I of the 24th Regiment Texas Cavalry in 1865. It has been told that he served as a medic although he did not have a license to practice medicine. In 1870, he ws still listed on the Jasper County, Texas census as a farmer, and in 1880 he is listed on the Orange County census as a blacksmith. Orange had become the destination of most of the logs that were harvested upstream, and the logging industry was booming.
The exact location of Robinson and Jerusha's graves can not be verified. However, their son William is buried in Trout Creek Cemetery at the west end near a large Cedar tree. Beside his grave are two unmarked graves, thought to be those of Robison and Jerusha.

25. | Benjamin Franklin Bean (5.James2, 1.John1) was born in Feb 1859 in Texas; died about 1947 in Kirbyville, Jasper County, Texas; was buried in Bean Cemetery, Kirbyville, Jasper County, Texas. Notes:
In "Newton County Nuggets" (Nortex Press, Austin, Texas, 1986, p 375), Ruby Sutton Droptini writes about helping her widowed mother run the local telephone operator office in rural Burkeville in the late 1930's and early 1940's. She recalled the day that their "neighbors' house caught fire. It was the house of Mr. and Mrs. Ben F. BEAN. It happened on a beautiful day about the middle of the morning. There was no fire department in Burkeville." The Beans operated a store in Wiergate, and were not home to take action themselves. Ruby therefore "rang all the business places in town at one time and as they answered I told them, "Beans house is on fire!""
Everyone responded and in a few minutes the yard was full of people. They drew water from the Bean's well and from the wards well to put on the house. The fire was extinguished before it could cause much damage, and the Beans were grateful their house had been saved.
Benjamin married Minnie E. Beck before 1879. Minnie was born about 1859 in Mississippi; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

In Kenneth Morgan's book, MORGAN'S EAST TEXAS TALES, he wrote that "Since my earliest memories, I have heard the old folks speak of "The Becky Field". (After her husband died) leaving Rebecca with five children still living at home, ranging in age from 4 to 17, and Carrol age thirty, who was crippled. With all the children pitching in, they tended the fields and raised enough produce for the family, with some left over to sell for cash money...."Aunt Becky" as she was called by friends and neighbors, ran cattle and hogs in the woods. She was a fine horsewoman, and sometimes rode with a baby on the saddle. In winter time, hogs were butchered, and the meat carried to town in the wagon, where it was peddled door to door. Becky heated big rocks ont he wood stove, wrapped them in burlap sacks, and placed them in front of the wagon to keep her feet warm on the long drive. When there was sickness or death in the community, she was always there to help in any way she could."
Her son, Albert Turner, was the informant on her death certificate.

ROY McLEMORE, BOY OF FEW WORDS Ivy McLemore often told his children this story favorite story about his younger brothers: When Roy and Lee were rather small children, Roy received a new coin purse of the type that snaps together on the top. He was playing with it while sitting beside the fireplace one night, when he inadvertently snapped it onto his lower lip. In a voice showing some consternation he said, "Come hyar, Lee!" Lee was engrossed with something else and ignored Roy for the moment. In a somewhat more insistant voice, Roy repeated "Come hyar, Lee!." When Lee still had not come, Roy's voice rose in a crescendo and, with the purse pinching his lip, causing excruciating pain, he fairly screamed, "I SAID COME HYAR, LEE!!" (Submitted by Ivy's son, Bobbie McLemore)
1920 Federal Census It appears that Roy was working as an Oil Field Laborer in Iowa Park, Wichita County, Texas at the time of this census. His listing appears as follows: McLemore, John R. Lodger M w 24 S Tx Tx Tx Laborer Oil Field He is living in the Lodging home of Dale and Vivian PIERCE, both from Iowa. This census enumeration was completed in January, 1920. Living in the boarding home at the same time was Walter Winfield STRONG. In an amazing coincidence, meaning absolutely nothing, Walter's great grandson, Tom STRONG, would some sixty years later marry Roy McLemore's half first cousin, twice removed, Melinda McLEMORE.
Former President of Paris Junior College in Paris, Texas. The student union building is named in his honor. Tombstone is inscribed, 'TX, PFC, Company A, 358th Infantry, WW I, PH."
THE PARIS NEWS, 30 Apr 1961. 'On the eve of his retirement after 35 years association with Paris Junior College, Dr. J.R. McLemore, its president since 1929, died of a heart attack Sunday at 1:30 p.m. at his home, 2343 Culbertson St. Due to retire within a month as head of the college, he had been named honoree for the Ex-Students Association annual spring banquet on May 20, the same group having presented an appreciation plaque to him at the 1960 fall homecoming game. Joining the faculty of the two year old college in 1926 as basketball coach and instructor, he became its head three years later, and guided its growth, from obscure quarters in Paris High School basement and a shoestring budget, to a million and a half dollar plant, and a high scholastic standing. Monday evening, 'Doctor Mac's' body will lie from 7 to 9 p.m. in DeShong Chapel on the college campus, and Tuesday at 2 p.m. service will be held at Fry and Gibbs Funeral Home. Dr. Ronald Prince of First Baptist Church, where Dr. McLemore was a deacon, will officiate, assisted by the Rev. John Shuler of First Methodist Church. Interment will be made in Evergreen Cemetery. Surviving are Mrs. McLemore, the former Miss Willie Mae Robinson; these children: Capt. John Robinson (Pondus) McLemore, US Air Force, Panama City, Fla.; Mrs. Newton O. Felps, Baytown, and Mrs. Wallace Finfrock, Dallas; four grandchildren; these sisters and brothers; Mrs. Robert Morgan, Kirbyville; Mrs. Ollie Newman and Mrs. Clyde Wilkinson, Houston; Frank McLemore, Beaumont, and Ivan McLemore and Lee McLemore, both of Jasper. Son of Samuel M. and Rose Ella (Bean) McLemore, John Roy McLemore was born at Erin, Jasper County, 8 Jan 1896. He attended Sam Houston State Teachers College, Huntsville, and later, East Texas State at Commerce, receiving his master's degree from the University of Texas, and the honorary LLD from Howard Payne College. He studied for a time at the University of Dijon in France, after World War I service with the 90th Division, and wore the Purple Heart for injuries during that period. He married Miss Robinson at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. R.M. Robinson at Biardstown, 27 Dec 1920, and they taught the nearby Burnett school together for two years. In the spring of 1926, Dr. McLemore taught French before joining the PJC faculty here for the fall term. He became the first president of the Texas Public Junior College Association; headed also the Junior College Athletic Association, the Texas Association of Universities and Colleges, and was treasurer of the Committee on Cooperation between Colleges and Public Schools and was listed in 'Who's Who in America.

Per Nan McCoy Kittell, Lucy had a daughter before she married Hank Votes. Her brothers paid to send her to Houston, where the baby was born. She placed the baby for adoption. Later in life, she searched for her child, but was never able to locate the child. This was confirmed by Hank Votes in 1982. She and Hank were unable to have children together, and he believed that Lucy "died of a broken heart."
Louvenia married Henry Joseph Votes on 18 Feb 1924. Henry was born on 21 Oct 1905 in Texas; died on 25 Aug 1994 in Harris County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
