4404 I48186  Carter  Norma Jean  5 Dec 1928  16 Mar 2022  Mrs. Jean Lewis, age 93, of San Augustine, Texas, passed away Wednesday, March 16, 2022, at Colonial Pines Care Center. She was born December 5, 1928, in the Hawthorne community.

Jean and Grady Lewis were married April 5, 1952, in San Augustine.

Jean worked in the financial industry as a banker for 15 years.

After living in many places across the Southwest, they settled in Lafayette, Louisiana, where they lived for more than 40 years. They were active with the First Baptist Church in Lafayette.

Jean was an avid golfer and member of "Owga and Oakbourne Country Club" of Lafayette. She was the club champion for five years straight.

She was also a member of and served the "Society of Petroleum Engineers Auxiliary," "Chez Amis," "Acadiana Symphony," and the "Sunshine Foundation of Lafayette."

Jean and Grady moved back to San Augustine several years ago.

Those left to cherish her memory include Frank and Penny Gauthier and thier children, Landon Gauthier and Alaina Gauthier, who called her "MiMi;" a host of friends and neighbors; and caregivers, Eugenia Lara and Adolfo Castro.

4405 I38970  Carter  Ollie Lucille  28 Aug 1921  29 Aug 2013  Lucille Carter Melde, 92, of Hemphill, died Thursday night in the Sabine County Hospital. Lucille was born in Hemphill to John Bradford and Beulah Carlton Carter. Lucille was married to the late Swede Melde, together they owned and operated Swede's Grocery and Service Station at the corner of Hwy 87 and FM 944. Lucille was a life resident of Hemphill and a member of the First Baptist Church.

Lucille is survived by her son Charles Melde and his wife Kathy of Hemphill and her niece Tina Butler of Hemphill. She was preceded in death by her husband Swede Melde and her sister Myrtle Horton.

4406 I11853  Carter  Parthenia  Feb 1850  17 Jun 1908  The book, SABINE COUNTY HISTORICAL SKETCHES AND GENEALOGICAL RECORDS, shows her as a daughter of "Wm. and Mary Carter, and believed to a desc. of Isaac Carter, Rev. soldier (sic)."

Wm. and Mary Carter were (1) dead prior to 1850, before the date of birth of Parthenia and (2) even if still alive, much too old. Perhaps Parthenia was a granddaughter, a daughter of their son Redmond? Or of son William and his wife Louisa Simmons? 
STR06 
4407 I16778  Carter  Permancy  Abt 1825  Aft 1854  It appears likely she is related in some way to the various Carter families enumerated immediately before them at the time of the 1850 Bossier Parish, Louisiana census.

It appears that she died, or was otherwise missing from the household, sometime after the 1864 birth of her youngest daughter, but prior to the 1860 census when her husband was remarried. In fact, on the website listed below, she is showsn as a daughter of of Derrell Carter and Sarepta Taylor. Derrell is said to be a son of Isaac Carter of Cumberland County, North Carolina and his wife Nancy Young, and brother to William Carter, the husband of Hannah Jemina Cole.

Permancy would therefore be a first cousin to Isaac F. Carter, the husband of Margaret Holden, who are both indexed in these files. Isaac was a son of Derrell's brother, William, by his first wife, Hannah Cole.

4423 I123  Carter  Una (Eunice)  24 Sep 1793  6 Jun 1870  IGI Records show that Una Carter married Amaziah Vardeman in St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana on 12 December 1815. The couple moved north to Mississippi sometime after their marriage, as all three of their daughters were born here.

A woman named "Uny Massy" can be found in Pike County, Mississippi in 1840 (Microfilm #704). Ronald Vern Jackson's index to this census references page 152. It appears that the reference should have been to pg 297, which is what is actually stamped at the top of the microfilm as a guide. The census listing indicates this was a household made up entirely of females. There was one female between the ages of 10-15, two between ages 15 and 20, one between 20 and 30, and one between 40 and 50. Living with them as well was a female slave, who was somewhere between 26 and 56 years of age. It appears that Una might have actually had four daughters, and not just the three currently listed. Una's oldest known daughter, Polly, became 20 years old in 1840. Her youngest known daughter, Jemimah, reached age 15 the same year. This means that either of them might have been classified into two age categories. Therefore gauging the age of a fourth daughter is especially difficult. She could have been born prior to Polly, or after Jemimah. She might even have been a daughter by Una's second husband.

At the time of the 1850 Sabine Parish Louisiana, Una was living alone in dwelling #304, between her daughters Jemimah Amazia Vardeman White and Ann Vardeman White. She is listed in the transcription of the Sabine Parish census prepared by Kathy Casagranda as Unas Massa age 57, M (sic), born in Louisiana.

On the 1860 Sabine County Census, she is living with her daughter Jimimah, and son in law John Reagan White (Household 118). This is next door to Henry Strickland White and his wife Mary Etta Vardeman. On that transcription, she is shown as Una Massa, age 66, F, born North Carolina.

4425 I38969  Carter  Vivian Mozelle  12 May 1914  16 Nov 1938  She is likely their daughter, "Mrs. C. A. McBride, who died in 1938."  STR06 
4426 I735  Carter  William  Abt 1756  Abt 1814  Moved to St. Tammany Parish, LA about 1810. In the 1850 Sabine Parish Louisiana with Added Family Information by Kathy Casagranda, she writes that William Carter was from Halifax County, North Carolina. Karen Carter Garcia, a descendant from Jasper, Texas writes that he was from Jackson County, Georgia, and was the son of Solomon Carter, also of Jackson County, Grandson of Samuel and Rebecca Carter of Edgecombe County, NC and great-grandson of Solomon Carter of Virginia. (Karen Carter Garcia, Route 8, Box 824, Jasper, Texas 75951; kgarcia@inv.net) Leatha Betts shows the same lineage, but lists all his forebearers as being from Edgecombe County, North Carolina. She notes that he left deeds in Jackson County, Georgia 1794-1795 as did Solomon Strickland. His children were mentioned in the deeds.

The book, SABINE COUNTY HISTORICAL SKETCHES AND GENEALOGICAL RECORDS, also shows a Parthenia Carter, wife of Elias Impson, as a daughter of "Wm. and Mary Carter, and believed to a desc. of Isaac Carter, Rev. soldier." Mrs. Blanche Finley Toole, coauthor of that book, told me that his descent from Isaac was just speculation.

Wm. and Mary Carter were also not likely the parents of Parthenia Carter as they were (1) dead prior to 1850, the date of birth of Parthenia and (2) even if still alive, much too old.

The couple moved to Upshur County in 1861, and after brief service with the Confederate Army, McCutchan was discharged because of poor health. He asked Matthew for help in disposing of the property he had left in San Augustine and also in identifying land Mandy had inherited from her father. She died sometime in the late 1860's leaving two children. Their son, James McCutchan, later worked for the Cartwrights and lived in Shelby County in 1888. (Henson and Parmelee, p. 266).  STR06

(Henson and Parmelee, p. 297). She later studied at Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas. (ibid, p. 301).

4440 I16373  Cartwright  Americus "Meck" Peyroux  17 Mar 1840  11 Aug 1873  John Bennett Boddie's SOUTHSIDE VIRGINIA FAMILY, Volume 1, states that Mr. Cartwright was a First Lt., C.S.A. in the Third Texas Cavalry and fought in the Missouri Campaign, later serving in General Major's brigade in Louisiana and Texas. His date of death was shown by Boddie as 11 Aug 1873, which matches the photo of his headstone on FindAGrave.

As had his older brother, Cumby, Meck attended the Kentucky Military Institute in Frankfort. In 1856 he had trouble with a reoccuring infection in his left eye...which eventually led to the loss of they eye. He later attended Cumberland Unversity in Lebanon, Tennesse, also with his brother Cumby. (Henson and Parmelee, p.179-183). He finished his studies in 1859 and returned home to clerk for the Burrus and Cartwright store. (ibid, p. 193).

On May 25, 1861, Meck, his brother Lon "and twenty other volunteers rode to Shelby County, where Captain Short lived, to enlist...Short's company left in June to rendezvous near Dallas, where along with other East Texas units, they were sworn into Col. Elkana Greer's mounted regiment....(and) eventually were designated as the Third Texas Cavalry, and Short's company became Company E." (ibid, p. 200). Upon reorganization of the regiment on May 8, 1862, Meck Cartwright became second lieutenant of Company E, chosen by the majority of the forty-seven members voting. (ibid, p. 215) Meck requested and received a medical discharge in August, 1862 due to his missing left eye and a more recent impairment to his hearing. (ibid, p. 217). He rejoined the Texas Third Cavalry in 1863...and became a forage master. (ibid, p. 229) later returning home on sick leave, and later still joining General Major's Cavalry (ibid, p. 235). In May, 1864, he ceased duty as a cavalryman and was promoted to courier dispatcher at General Major's headquarters. (ibid, p. 236).

In 1873, he died at a hotel in Carthage, while travelling on business. For some time he had suffered from various ailments, including jaundice, for which he took calomel or blue pills, both which contained mercury. He also used liquor to mitigate the pain, and on August 11, the doctor pronounced him as dead of black jaundice. (ibid, p. 287). When his widow some years later moved to Terrell, Texas, to join Meck's siblings, she had his body reinterred with those of his parents and siblings. (ibid, p. 308).

4448 I16309  Cartwright  Clementine G. "Mentie"  14 Apr 1819  10 Mar 1847  Henson and Parmelee wrote that after her husband died suddenly at a young age, his widow, Clementine was only age twenty-four, with two small children. The probate court named the widow and Sanford's brother, William W. Holman, administrators of the estate. The Treasury Department of the State of Texas had filed suit agains Sanford prior to his death, and they won this, resulting in his heirs becoming liable for this debt. Both Sanford and Clementine had inheritied land from their parents that in 1842, a year before Sanford died, totaled about 15,000 acres. By 1844, the year after her husbands death, Clementine owed taxes on four slaves and one silver watch plus acreage. The continuing hard times slowed land sales, but Clementine managed to pay some debts by transferring some acreage, while other tracts were sold at sherriff sales for back taxes and other debts. By 1846, the struggling widow owned only 1,476 acres valued at a mere $369, an average of twenty-five cents per acre." (Henson and Parmelee, p. 127). Henson and Parmelee write that she when she died, four years after the death of Sanford, her body was taken by wagon to be interred next to her husband in the Holman family plot northwest of town.

4450 I9688  Cartwright  Columbus "Cumby" Clinton  23 Aug 1837  12 Dec 1901  At the age of 16, Columbus and two other local boys were sent to the Kentucky Military Institute near Frankfort. They traveled by steamboat down the Red River and up the Mississippi and Ohio rivers to Louisville, and then by train, the first they had seen, to Frankfort. Homesick, but conscious of his duty, Columbus missed no classes and worked very hard to please his parents. Upperclassman Moses A. Broocks wrote this his father that Columbus was 'one of the finest and healthiest looking' cadets." (Henson and Parmelee, pp. 171 -172). He had to return to San Augustine in 1855 due to poor health. He later attended Cumberland Unversity in Lebanon, Tennesse, with his brother Meck. Poor health continued to afflict Cumby the rest of his life. At the onset of the Civil War, he remained home with his young family, not enlisting in the C.S.A. with his brothers Meck and Lon (ibid, p. 200)

In the summer of 1861 Mosquito-borne fevers troubled San Augustine..."Columbus was so sick that he spoke of dying to his father before his slow recovery. Sallie, his wife, also had two chills but seemed to be better; Matthew probably did not know that she was expecting her third child. Other neighbors were very ill and some were dying." (ibid, pp. 206-207). The ledger books of his father, Matthew Cartwright, show that a number of payments of $50 or more were made to pay men to serves as Columbus's substitutes in the Confederate army, a practice that was later forbidden. (ibid, p. 216) In 1864, fearful that the Union forces would advance into Texas, Columbus joined Gen. Major's cavalry below Natchitoches by April 24. His brother Meck, who had been on sick leave since October 1863 rejoined as well. The brothers were among the Confederates who followed the retreating Union boats along the river banks. Eventually Cumby's old kidney ailment sent him to the rear. He returned to duty near Opelousas on May 31. By the end of July 1864 he was home on a furlough he had bought for $38. His health remained bad, and his leave was extended until November. (ibid, pp 235-236).

During the 1880's, Columbus formed a business partnership with two of his sons, Robert and John Matthew, both of whom had moved to Mt. Calm in Hill County, to raise fine horses. Columbus remained most of the time in San Augustine, maintaining a race track where he trained his favorite animals. Beginning in 1884 he bought throughbreds and was listed in the AMERICAN STUD BOOK and TURF, FIELD AND FARM (ibid, pp. 298-299). Once the overachiever of the family, Columbus had learned over the years that his kidney ailment could be controlled by simple quiet living, and raising racehorses and other livestock in San Augustine suited him. He remained behind as the rest of his siblings moved to westward to Terrell. (p. 308).

4460 I6993  Cartwright  George Washington  2 Aug 1812  26 Jun 1881  Noble writes that he "Lived in Sabine County and was a charter member of the Jackson Masonic Lodge of Milam. He was a land speculator like his father and brother, Matthew. In 1881, he sold 20 A. to Wm. M Reese and S.E. Collier for the Sabine Valley University in Hemphill."

Henson and Parmalee indicate he was a blacksmith (p. 42). The authors also speculate that "George Cartwright may have taken his wife and small daughter Mary to California [during the Gold Rush]. The tax assessor in Sabine County listed him as a nonresident, and his name appears nowhere in Texas in the 1850 and 1860 censuses. George's five-year-old son Sanford lived with Uncle Richard Cartwright in San Augustine in 1850 and went to school in Shelby County for the next two years. George was back in Sabine County on June 5, 1860, when his steam mill exploded, damaging the machinery. He told a friend that he was "not dispirited" and thought he could repair it. (ibid, p 165). In a footnote, the authors also cite the "Diary of C. C. Cox," 49, [which] mentions a company of families from eastern Texas, including a blacksmith.

4469 I5513  Cartwright  John  10 Mar 1787  18 Jul 1841  John was the only son of Matthew (1754-1812) and Mary "Polly" Grimmer Cartwright (1761-1824), although he had five sisters. He was a grandson of John Cartwright (1728-1780) and Sarah Miller.

Harry Noble wrote a twenty page biography of him in his book, TEXAS TRAILBLAZERS (pages 70 - 90). He noted that much additional material can be found in the first five chapters of Margaret Swett Henson and Deolece Parmelee's volume THE CARTWRIGHTS OF SAN AUGUSTINE (Texas State Historical Association, Austin, 1993).

Margaret Henson, in her preface of her book about the Cartwright Family, writes that Emily Griffith Roberts, the wife a John Cartwright's great-grandson, privately published a two-volume genealogy about the family in 1939 and 1948. The volumes included research and many documents concerning the Roberts, Griffiths, Cartwrights and other interrelated families. A committee of descendants later employed Mrs. Deolece Parmelee to explore the collections of papers scattered in private hands, along with some archived at the Eugene C. Barker Texas History Center, and to prepare a more complete history. Parmelee made photocopies and typescripts, arranged them in a usable order, and eventually compiled a 450 page typescript. This was largely the basis for Henson's 1993 book.

Noble wrote that when John Cartwright was five years old his parents sold their farm in North Carolina and moved westward across the mountains into Tennessee. There they purchased two hundred acres on Drake's Lick Creek in Sumner County. John spent his childhood in Tennessee. He would continue a pilgrimage that would cover approximately 800 miles and involve at least five moves, but when completed thirty-three years later, he would be in Texas--his home for the remainder of his life. Texas would also be the home for several generations of his descendants.

While in Wilson County, Tennessee, John was a merchant, an occupation he would continue for the rest of his life. By 1818 he was having trouble collecting certain debts. His attorney, a new resident in Lebanon, Tennessee, was Sam Houston....the two men were detstined to meet again--the next time in San Augustine, Texas. (Noble, page 71)

John later moved his family to Mississippi, and "caught 'Texas fever' when the new Mexican government...stabilized...with a constitution resembling that of the United States." He began the last leg of his pilgrimage in early 1825...(taking) his family down the Mississippi River to New Orleans by steamboat and then across the Gulf and up the Red River. Leaving the river at Natchitoches, the family traveled by wagons overland past Fort Jessup to James Gaines ferry. John picked his homesite about five miles east of the Ayish Bayou close to the banks of springs near Palo Gacho Creek. The area was vacant, not a settler anywhere near, "...although the house of a previous owner remained in the vicinity." John's thirty-three year odyssey was over, ending on the banks of the Palo Gacho Creek in Texas and Coahuila, Mexico. What a mosiac of people John found in the Ayish Bayou region when he arrived. Most were hard working farmers or businessmen of modest means, but some were unscruplous drifters, already at odds with the law. (Noble, page 72)

John and his family can be found on the 1835 Sabine District census. Their were 11 slaves in their home, from ages 12 to 39. There were also 4 children born to their slaves.

On August 21, 1840, with the assistance of San Augustine attorney William W. Frizell, Cartwright made his will. In it he gave the 885 acre homesite on Palo Gacho to his two minor sons, Clinton and Richard. He also gave his wife an interest in the homesite and placed the restriction that it couldn't be sold until after her death. Additionally, he gave her all monies due him by debt. He then distributed the remaining assets to various family members. (Noble, 89) John Cartwright died on July 18, 1841, and (his son-in-law William) Garrett, along with Mary, Cartwright's widow, were appointed executors of Cartwright's estate. Their selections was confirmed the following month. With assistance from Matthew Cartwright, Garrett then compiled an inventory of the estate. It was valued at $72,800. (Noble)

In the book, The Cartwrights of San Augustine, it was noted that elder sons, Matthew and Robert, challenged the will, likely on the grounds that the document was not in keeping with the community property laws adopted by the Republic of Texas in January 1840, and because John had exceeded his testamentary powers in the distribution of his property to his children. Mary Cartwright immediately renounced her executorship in order to contest John's will so as to "receive in common with my children such portions of said estate as we are by law entitled to." The family reached a settlement in January 1842. (Henson and Parmelee, pp. 119-120).

4475 I9969  Cartwright  Leonidas "Lon"  14 Nov 1842  25 Feb 1922  Obituary

The death of Leonidas Cartwright, Sr., at Terrell, Tex., on February 25, 1922, removed one of the most influential citizens of that community, a leader in movements for the public good. He was born at San Augustine, Tex., November 27, 1842, the third son of Matthew and Amanda Holman Cartwright. His grandfather, John Cartwright, was one of the pioneers of that section, going there from Tennessee in 1819, and the place where he located became, in 1831, the site of the present town of San Augustine.

Leonidas Cartwright was educated there and at the Military Institute at Bastrop, and when the war came on he and his brother, A. P. Cartwright, enlisted in May, 1861, in Company E, 3rd Texas Cavalry. When this regiment was reorganized in 1862 it became part of Ross's Brigade, and in 1864 this command took part in the Atlanta campaign under Gen. Joseph E. Johnston. During this campaign he was selected as one of a hundred picked men from this brigade, as scouts under Lieutenant Taylor, to operate in the rear of Sherman's army, getting valuable information, tearing up railroad tracks and bridges, etc., to interrupt his lines of communication; and it was in this department of the Confederate army that he was mustered out after a service of four years.

He was married to Miss Ludie Ingram in December, 1868, and engaged in farming until 1870, when his father died and he assumed the extensive land business of the latter, and carried it on with marked success until 1894. He opened up a ranch in Cooke County, Tex., and another in Taylor County, and he took great interest and pride in the raising of fine horses and cattle. He located in Terrell in 1895. Four sons and five daughters survive him. He had long been a member of the Methodist Church.

Henson and Parmelee note that in the early 1880's, Lon wanted to move to the boomtown of Terrell, where traveling by train to oversee his ranches would be easier. Hoping to persuade his reluctant mother, he bought a large residential block on Griffin Avenue in Terrell and divided the property with Matthew. (Henson and Parmelee, THE CARTWRIGHTS OF SAN AUGUSTINE, p. 295). Intrigued by the success of his older brother, Cumby, with racing stock, Lon also invested in thoroughbreds, much to the diguist of their youngest brother, Matthew. The ever practical Matthew chided his mentor for risking money on exotic horses when mules were the real money makers. "Mules are a staple article," Matthew wrote, "and will command money; horses can scarcely be bartered for trash." (ibid, p 299). As his mother refused to leave San Augustine, however, Lon and his family remained in San Augustine until after her death in 1894. They built a custom Queen Anne style home on the lot they owned on Griffith Avenue, which was finished in April 1895.

In his August 30, 2007 column in the San Augustine Tribune, Harry Noble writes that Matthew was the richest man in San Augustine and the sixth wealthiest in the State of Texas in his era. In 1860, he owned so much land scattered across the state that as he traveled on his big sorrel horse "Red Buck," it was said that no matter where he was, that he could spend the night on his own land.

Noble went on to write that Matthew exhibited maturity at an early age. When he was 14, his father sent him to the unsettled frontier of Texas with one servant to clear land John had acquired two years earlier. John also gave his son power of attorney at age 18 and sent him to Tennessee and Mississippi to settle family affairs.

At the age of 21, Matthew traveled to Wilson County where he enrolled in a local college...late in 1829 Matthew rejoined his father in Texas who was then operating a family farm, cotton gin and store.

Matthew's paid $900 in 1849 for the two-story Isaac Campbell home on Main Street. The New England style home had been built by Augustus Phelps, a master carpenter, in 1839. The palatial dwelling was still standing in San Augustine, and is owned by Matthew's direct descendants, as of 2007. Never a large slaveholder, Matthew's slaves were all employed inside or around the house, taking care of the livestock, firewood, garden and orchard.

The home was purchased by Americus "Meck" H. Cartwright and his wife, Minnie Clementine Sublett in 1898, after Amanda was forced by ill health to move in with her son Lon, and remained in the hands of Meck and Minnie's descendants. (Henson and Parmelee, p. 302).

At the time of the 1850 census Matthew's land alone was worth $165,000, and he had only seven slaves, considerably lower than most other wealthy families. The 1850 slave schedule listed the number of male and female slaves, as well as their ages, but not their names. Matthew Cartwright's bible, however, shows them as Nancy, b. 1810 and her four children, Dick, b. 1836, Emeline b. 1838, Virtue b. 1840 and Walker, b. 1846. It also lists Jane, b. 1830 and her daughter, Harriet, b. 1849.

In 1860, Matthew's occupation was listed as "land trader" and it was estimated that his real estate was worth $500,000 and personal property near $75,000, with 13 slaves. Henson and Parmelee point out by way of contrast that brother-in-law and "planter" William Garrett had a $171,651 estate, including 132 slaves, and that "Farmer-Merchant" Iredell D. Thomas had $166,000 in accumulated wealth, and 52 slaves. (Henson and Parmelee, p. 191).

After the war, the president Andrew Johnson issued an amnesty proclamation restoring citizenship to those who would pledge future loyalty to the United States; however, those holding high military or civil offices in the Confederate government, as well as those with taxable property valued over $20,000, would have to petition him directly for individual pardons. Matthew, the pragmatic businessman, wanted to get his special pardon as soon as possible so that he could resume his activities and protect his property. He took his amnesty oath on August 28, 1865 in the Caddo Parish District Court and received a copy to carry with him in order to conduct business. He later recorded this in the San Augustine District Courty. (ibid, pp. 239-243). Unlike many of their neighbors, the Cartwrights survived the Civil War without the loss or maiming of a son. The emancipation of their few household slaves was not an economic loss comparable to those suffered by neighbor planters who possessed numerous field hands. And by carefully guarding their gold and silver reserves, as well as utilizing his long business experience to carefully buy, sell and barter during the war, the family was able to resume business activities relatively unhampered. (ibid, p. 247).

His funeral notice card read:

The friends and acquantances of
MATTHEW CARTWRIGHT, Sr.
are respectfully invited to attend his funeral tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock, A.M. He will be buried with Masonic
honors, at this late residence in the town of San Augustine.
SAN AUGUSTINE, TEXAS, April 2, 1870

Amanda chose a burial plot several hundred feet east of the house.

No copy of the obituary that surely ran in the San Augustine paper can be found. The San Antonio Daily Express carried a brief obituary on May 1: "DIED at his home in San Augustine, first day of April, Matthew Cartwright, one of the pioneers of Texas, and one of the largest, if not the largest, land holder in the state." (ibid, p. 275).

When the inventory of his estate was compiled, it was shown that he owned 298 parcels of land in 56 counties, totalling 361,632 acres with a value of $356,304. Amanda inherited one-half as his widow, and the rest was to be divided equally among his six children.

At the time of the 1870 census, Amanda reported owning real estate worth $343,281, and personal property valued at $75,529, which ultimately placed the Cartwright estate as the fourth-largest in Texas, following those of Richard King in South Texas and Galveston Merchants, J. J. Hendley and George Sealy. (ibid, pp. 278-279).

4487 I9723  Cartwright  Matthew  11 Aug 1855  11 Nov 1925  In the fall of 1870, he was sent to a school in Gilmer, Upshur county, founded by Morgan Harbin Looney, a native of Georgia. One of the instructors was Judge Oran M. Roberts, adding to the schools prestige. He left after a term, and spent nine months travelling with elder brother Lon, learning the family business, and returned in the fall of 1872, staying only a few days before returning to San Augustine and enrolling at a school in Shelbyville.

His life was soon married by tragedy. On December 26, 1872, 17 year old Matt and 40 year old Carroll Ballard exchanged pistol shots near the old customs house in San Augustine. Details of the affray were suppressed by family and friends. While Matthew was not injured, he severely wounded the Ballard. Ballard's friends tied him to a horse and led him home to his wife, Clementine Texas "Tet" Ingram, the older sister of Jimmie Ingram (Mary's husband) and Ludie Cartwright (Lon's wife). Tet was a widow with three children and lived near Sexton in Sabine County when she married Ballard. They settled in Buena Vista in Shelby County, and had a stormy relationship, separating several times. Ballard had a violent temper, and had appear in court several times on charges of attempted murder. Matthew was arrested, but freed on bond. Rumors indicated that Matthew's life might be in danger from friends of the Ballards. He was acquitted on a charge of "assault to kill," but found guilty of unlawfully carrying a gun. He paid a $25 fine and surrendered his pistol.

Within a month, he was sent to Cumberland University in Lebanon, Tennessee, well out of reach of Ballard's friend. Ballard died in December, 1873, a year after the shooting. Rumors continued to spread that his death was due to his earlier wounds, and that Ballard's friends still sought revenge. Other residents of Sabine County, however, told Mary Ingram that during his last feverish days, Ballard had expressed no animosity toward Matthew, believing that God had arranged the shooting to punish him for past misdeeds, and allow him to repent. Matthew left school in May, 1874, and decided not to return to the stagnating redlands, chosing to settle in the new railroad town of Terrell, in Kaufman County, opening a grain farm on inherited land, and engaging in the land business, as had his father. (Henson and Parmelee, pp. 280-293). Henson and Parmelee note that in the early 1880's, Matthew's brother Lon also wanted to move to the boomtown of Terrell, and ev even bought a large residential block on Griffin Avenue in Terrell and divided the property with Matthew. Matthew began building his large house in Terrell in 1882. His three story, five bedroom frame house with its square tower was impressive. It was finished by 1883, when his daughter Jerome Broocks was born. (ibid, pp. 295-296).

4496 I1653  Cartwright  Richard Hankins  25 Apr 1828  Apr 1856  Richard had his young nephew, Sandford Cartwright, living in his home at the time of the 1850 census, when older brother George appears to have gone to California to look for gold.

Richard inherited Jordan, a valuable slave who was trained as a blacksmith, after the death of his elder brother Clinton, but sold him in 1852 for his tax value of $1,625. For a Cartwright heir, Richard seemed to have been constantly short of funds, which suggests perhaps gambling and drinking too much. Family letters in 1873 refer obliquely to the tragedy of too much alcohol, but do not mention names. (Henson and Parmelee, p. 177).

His various enterprises included a mill and a store in addition to his farm in the Jonathan Bittick league, and like Matthew, Robert has several thousand acres of speculative land. He owned nine slaves who helped him raise cotton, corn, cattle, hogs and sheep. Beginning in 1851, Robert's family and slaves were treated for intermittent fever by Dr. William J. Ragland, a Tennessee kinsman.....Mary Lanier Cartwright became very ill in 1852 and died by the end of September; Robert survived her by less than seven months...He had named Matthew his executor and co-guardian of his children with W.
