8908 I14152  Garrett  William  Abt 1808  12 Jan 1884  0  On the 1860 San Augustine County census, he was shown as a planter, with $36,751 in real property and $134,910 in personal property. The Garrett's lived next to the family of Frank and Minta Price, who had three children, John, Mary and William (ages 6,4 and 1). The three Price children, presumably orphaned, were actually living with the Garrett family at the time of the 1870 census. William Price, age 20, was still living with the Garrett family in 1880, and is listed as William Garrett's grandson.

On the same census, brother-in-law Matthew Cartwright had real estate at $500,000 and personal property near $75,000, with only 13 slaves. Henson and Parmelee point out by way of contrast that brother-in-law and "planter" William Garrett estate, included 132 slaves, and that "Farmer-Merchant" Iredell D. Thomas had $166,000 in accumulated wealth, and 52 slaves. (Henson and Parmelee, "The Cartwrights of San Augustine," p. 191).

In 1870, he was shown as a retired farmer, with $20,000 in real property and $5,000 in personal property.

The information below is excerpted from a five part series on William Garrett by Harry Noble, Jr appearing weekly in the SAN AUGUSTINE TRIBUNE begining on April 6, 1995 and continuing through May 4, 1995.

"William Garrett, born in 1808 and a native of Davidson county, Tennessee, was still a youngster when his parents, Jacob and Charity (Taylor) Garrett, moved the family to Arkansas. In 1827, at the age of nineteen, Garrett migrated to Texas, first settling in Nacogdoches. He established a small mercantile business there, but operated it only a short time before moving east to the Ayish Bayou District.

Either Garrett encouraged family members to joing him in Texas, or the family had developed a master migration plan, because his father and several brothers soon followed him to the area. Jacob, his father was the first to arrive, but is wasn't long before his older brother Milton came to the new territory. At some point during this relocation process, another older brother, Clairborn, also migrated south to the Ayish Bayou District....

William Garrett acquired a land grant about a mile west of the Ayish on the Old San Antonio Road. He decided that's where he wanted to live and remained there for the rest of his life. He would eventually develop a profitable plantation and build a large house. The old home has survived and is presently the Cornell and Ruby Dorsey home. While still nineteen, Garrett joined Burrell J. Thompson's militia and participated in the Fredonian Rebellion. The final battle of the insurrection occurred a little over a mile east of the Ayish Bayou. However, the culminating ambush and surrender process, where the Fredonian reinforcements were captured by Stephen Prather's small group, took place on the ridge just east of William Garrett's house.

Even though Garrett now lived in the Ayish Bayou area, he still had many friends in Nacogdoches, including Adolphus Sterne, and continued to interact with the town and its people for several years. For instance, it was during this period that he was ordered to repay a debt of six pesos to Jesus de los Coy, a resident of that district. Also, in August of 1832, Charles S. Taylor, another Nacogdoches resident, sent $30 by Mr. G. Pollett for payment on an account he had had with Garrett. Taylor, in an accompanying letter, asked Garrett for a receipt, plus all of the local news. News was a valuable commodity in pioneer days and was gathered at every opportunity and from whatever source available.

Tension had been growing for years in Nacogdoches between the civil authorities and Jose de las Piedras....(culminating) in the Battle of Nachogdoches on August 12, 1832....Garrett and Alexander Horton (later) signed a sworn statement that: "...James B. McMahan served as private in Captain Smith's company....(and that they) were in the same battle and in the same expedition at Nacogdoches."

In 1832, Garrett was selected as one of the committee members to select a site for the town. In the following year he bought a large parcel of land from Obediah Hendrick. Perhaps this was purchased in connection with his approaching marriage to Mary "Polly" Cartwright. Their vows were exchanged on October 20, 1833.

Garrett's first land transaction recorded in San Augustine County deed records was for lot 161, sold to Francis Cabler in December 1837 for $50. In March, 1838, he served on the adultry trial of Simpson Brown and Eliza Dalton. The case was dismissed.

In the late 1830's, an economic depression took hold. Adolphus Sterne wrote in his diary "Grog Shops all Shutt no Cash...times have never been so hard." In financial maneuvers to help survive this crisis, Garrett formed a Cotton warehouse partnership in Sabinetown with his father-in-law, John Cartwright. he also entered into several land ventures with his brother-in-law, Matthew Cartwright. Cotton prices had dropped to the point Garrett and the Cartwrights were willing to store cotton in a warehouse and gamble on the prices going back up in future years.

After his father's death (in 1842), William was appointed administrator of his father's estate, and at the same time made administrator de bonis non of (brother) Clairborn's estate. He submitted the final settlement of his brother's estate in January of 1848 and shortly after that was able to close the books on his father's estate--personally receiving a portion of each property.

He was administrator of the esate of his father-in-law, John Cartwright, and Henry J. Lockridge. He transferred a half interest in a third of a league of land located on the Trinity River in Nacogdoches to William D. Ratliff--another brother-in-law. Two months later, Garrett bought the same half interest at public auction with a high bid of $70.

Garrett was obviously a busy man at this point in his life. Married and with three minor children, not only was he overseeing one of the largest plantations in East Texas and part owner of a cotton warehouse venture, he was also the administrator of at least four estates. Even thought the depression was still hanging on in 1843, Garrett was doing well with his plantation. The tax rolls showed substantial income and the family owned two fine carriages--an unusual luxury at that time.

His wife died in July 1846. Garrett enrolled his minor daughters at the Women's Female College, a department of Wesleyan College. The tuition was $10 per session for each girl. Garrett offset some of his expenses, however, by furnishing firewood during the winter. The total tuition charges for 1847, minus the firewood, came to $48. Garrett boarded the girls at the home of Stephen W. Blount for the year for a total of $115. Additionally, he was paying $10 per semester for music lessons. Obviously, he was dedicated to providing the best education available for his daughters.

Earlier, in March 1847, Clementine Holman, widow of Sanford Holman and daughter of William Garrett's brother-in-law Matthew Cartwright had died (sic), leaving her two small children Anna and William. Within days after the marriage of William and Lucetta, William moved his two daughters back from the home they were boarding in to their plantation home, as well as taking in the two Holman children, again helping out relatives in time of need. Considerable credit should go to Lucetta. Married less than a month, she not only had a new husband but four small children. She and William went on to have seven more children of their own.

Due to his numerous business and estate dealings, Garrett was frequently in court. In 1847, Edmund Gaines, the commanding general of Fort Jessup, fifteen miles east of the Sabine River in Louisiana, filed suit against the estate of Jacob Garrett for which William was administrator. District Judge O.M. Roberts ruled in favor of Garrett. However, the case was later retried and the jury subsequently returned a verdict in favor of General Gaines. In 1848, Emory Huston, son of Almanzon, filed a lawsuit against William as well. The jury found in Garrett's favor. Later, he lost a judgement for $25.25 to Iredell Thomas, but a case filed by William and Mary Seawall was found in his favor. Leon Chabert of New Orleans, representing a commodities trading firm, had been pursuing a delinquent payment claim against Matthew Cartwright for years. He eventually sued Garrett and Samuel Burrus as guarantors for Cartwright. The court ruled in favor of the plantiffs (Burrus and Garrett). Additional lawsuits continued into the late 1850's, with verdicts going both for and against Garrett.

In December 1863, Richard Waterhouse, a San Augustine merchant, was murdered and robbed. A number of citizens assemebled and appointed "a committee of Safety...consisting of more than fifty of our most respectable citizens." William Garrett was a primary spokesman. They investigated the murder and arrested three men, immediately sentencing them to be hanged, not waiting for the next session of the district court. Two of the men, Malvin Huston and William M. Everett, were scheduled to be executed on the morning of February 13, 1864, and the committee "ordered (their) examination by a unanimous vote, and directed that both...men should be tortured, if necessary, to procure a disclosure of the circumstances...Everett refused to make any disclosure, (therefore) he was subjected to torture which was slight and he very soon consented to tell all he knew of the matter..." The interrogation committee consisted of William Garrett, Alexander Horton, and Dr. Isaih J. Roberts. Another small group had similarly interrogated Everett, obtaining a statement almost identical in substance and detail. The surprising testimony pointed to one of the town's leading attorneys, Henry M. Kinsey. As in most murder investigations, there were conflicting "facts" and a wide range of opinions. Huston and Everett were executed on February 15, 1864, less than seven weeks after the murder of Richard Waterhouse. They had "retracted the whole of their statements" prior to their executions. Kinsey denied everything. He was never brought to trial. Shortly after the victim's son returned from the Civil War, Kinsey was gunned down (May 10, 1865) by the "Waterhouse Party."

After the war, during the reconstruction period, things were difficult for Garrett. He salvaged as much as he could and continued on. In March 1874, he sold his steam mill, engine saw, and grist mill to W.S. Rhodes. He continued to buy and sell land. In 1875, he purchased 700 acres from his sister Lurena Curl, Thomas Curl's widow, for $1,000. The land was in Ellis County, and had been part of the Clairborn Garrett headright. He sold "for love and $100" a one-fifth interest in a section of land four miles west of San Augustine to Ella and Lafayette Sharp, his daughter and son-in-law. This transaction occurred in February of 1880."

Garrett died on January 12, 1884 at the age of 76. He was buried just a few yards northeast of his plantation home. That cemetery, known today as the William Garrett Cemetery, has twenty-five graves. Garrett was the father of thirteen children by two marriages. Both wives were buried with him, along with eleven of his children, seven daughters and four sons. Also near him are two daughters-in-law. 		 STR06

8911 I41844  Garrison  Caleb  Abt 1775  4 Nov 1848  0  From FindAGrave:

Died at his residence, in Paulding County, Georgia, November 4, 1848, Caleb Garrison, aged 73. His disease was one of long standing, and such was its character that frequently his children were called upon to see his last, but he bore it with courage, fortitude, and murmured not at the providence of God. In his death, the Church lost a devoted member of long standing. He was born in North Carolina, moved to Franklin County, Ga., in 1810, became a member of the Methodist Church a year after his removal, and shortly after he was appointed a leader.

He moved from Franklin County to Fayette County, then to Carroll County, Georgia. He afterwards lived several years in Heard County, and moved from thence to his residence in Paulding, where he breathed his last. (Obituary of Caleb Garrison; Southern Christian Advocate, Vol. XII, No. 26, p. 104; issue of Dec. 8, 1848)

Caleb married Sarah Jane Fleming in 1795, and they had 9 children.

Recent DNA testing has disproven a long-held theory that Caleb's parents were John Garrison and Elinor Robinson. Instead, his parents are now believed to be Isaiah Garrison and another Elinor.

ELLINGTON (Chautauqua County, New York)

Christian Church of Ellington (1823) The Christian Church of Ellington (then Gerry) was organized July 13,1823 and was composed of seven members: Ira GATES Noel C. GATES Simon LAWRENCE Clarissa GATES Polly GATES [It is believed that the first and third of the following named officers make up the seven original members.] Freeman WALDEN and Elisha BEARDSLEY were chosen elders; Seth S. CHASE, deacon

No articles of faith were adopted; the members simply agreeing ? to take the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments for the rule of faith and practice at all times.? From the time of organization for about tens years the records are meager, containing little else than the record of members received and dismissions. Among the ministers who served the church were:

____WALDEN Stephen BLAISDELL.

The meeting house was built about 1845. It was repaired in 1859, and dedicated anew, Jan 5, 1860; sermon by E. B. ROLLINS.

William David Gay born March 11, 1857. He couldn't really remember
his birthday. I wrote down what was on his grave. He died March 17,
1931. He married Mary Morgan in MS. January 17, 1878. She died after
falling off a horse. She was pregnant at the time and the baby also
died. He then married Amelia Jane Counts December 25, 1885 [12/24/1882] in MS.
His parents were William Gay (c 1828 - 1864) born in GA and Rose Anna
Murray(c 1832 - ????) born in GA.

He also has the following fragment of his obituary, supplied by Rhodene Frederick:

I have a very old and damaged obit for William [David] Gay (1857-1931). - Rhodene

[???]could do was done but nothing could relieve the suffering.

A sweet peaceful smile settled on the worn face and the soul seemed to float out
to eternity with the sweet calm that goes with a christian soul.

Funeral services were held at the First Baptist Church in Walters. Rev. Geo C.
Hutto said a fitting tribute to ?????? the services at the church the Masons
took charge of the body but owing to the down pour of rain the services were
omitted at the cemetery.

In 1884 [12-24-1882] he was married to Miss Amelia Counts of Bannie [Banner] Miss.
To this union eight children were born. Six of which [???? were still alive at the time of ???] his death.

Mr. Gay professed faith in Christ, in August 1893 and united with the Methodist
church. In 1910 he joined the Baptist church. He was also a charter member of
the Emerson Baptist church of which he remained a member until his death. Not
only being a charter member of the little country church of his community but
was also a charter member of the Masonic lodge of Walters. In 1929 he was made
honorary member of the lodge.

He also participated in the laying of the corner stone of the Walters High
school building.

He came to this country [Cotton County, Okla(Indian Territory)] in 1901 and settled
on a claim northwest of Walters in the Elm Grove district.
He was well and favorably known in and around Walters.
He was a true Christian character, a loving and devoted husband, father,
grandfather and great-grandfather.

One Less at Home

One less at home,
The charmed circle broken, a dear
face missed day by day from its
accustomed place;
But cleansed and saved and perfected
by grace.
One more in Heaven!

8992 I6298  Gentry  Bessie Bird  14 Dec 1894  3 May 1958  0  When Bessie's husband vanished in the late 1920's, she was left as the sole supporter of their five children. She worked as a housekeeper and seamstress for various families in Duncan, including the Ederington's, who owned the local service station, and for the parish priest. She also had to rely on her and Tom's family for financial assistance. One person who was especially helpful was Tom's first cousin, Annie O'Neill Sparks. Annie was able to help Bessie enroll her older children in nearby Catholic Boarding Academies. These academies had been set up to service the needs of impoverished Native American children. But because Tom was enrolled in the Chickasaw Nation, and Annie was well known in her parish, she was able to help make this happen. Patty Gay, the youngest child, remained with her mother. She was a sickly child, with a congenetial heart defect that led to her early death.

Lynn Moroney told Charles that although Bessie received help from some of her kin, at times was resentful of being the object of their charity. Lynn also related a story that her mother Fay had told her, concerning a different type of charity. Bessie and her children lived for a while in a duplex in Duncan. This duplex had adjoining closets which actually allowed you access to your neighbors living quarters. Bessie's neighbor explained it would be of great service to her if Bessie could "keep her beans from burning" while she was at work each day. She would have a large pot of beans or stew simmering on the stove all day long, and each day Bessie would take one of her children through the closet with her "to stir the beans." She would give the child a small sample of the hot food every time they helped her to stir them, and admonish them to keep this a secret from the other children. The neighbor was fully aware of this, and both she and Bessie kept up the pretense that it was Bessie helping her, and that it wasn't the other way around. The girls compared stories years later, and were each surprised they weren't the only one whose meager lunch was supplemented by hot beans or stew.

After her daughters were grown, Bessie lived with each of them for a time. Charles recalls when she lived with his family in Duncan. He recalls that she was shy to the point of being reculsive, and fearful of many things, most especially of inclement weather. Whenever a storm even threatened, Charles was dispatched to take her to the storm celler, and to remain with her until it was all clear. His younger brother Bill soon discovered Bessie's almost obsessive attention to detail, and took delight in secretly tormenting her. He would turn the telephone in the wrong direction, or slightly tilt pictures and doilies in their home. Bessie would immediately fix things back to way they should be. When she would walk through the room again a few hours later, she would be upset to find everything slightly out of order again, and worriedly set about put things back in order.

Charles Strong reports that as a youngster, he on occasion thought he heard a Payne relation let slip a reference to how "Uncle Tommy" was doing, and immediately change the subject when they realized he was in the room. He suspects that Tom may have been in touch with one of more of his relations back home. If this was so, however, no one shared this information with Bessie or her daughters.

Bessie had an ulcer on her leg that never healed, and after several unsuccessful skin grafts she eventually had to have it amputated, and was give a wooden prosthetic. Her grandchildren were both scared and fascinated by the leg, and hid it from Bessie occasionally to tease her. Charles heard that the leg infection started when she was a young girl, helping her parents in the fields. She would scratch mosquito bites until her legs were raw and ragged. One of the sores became infected with ragweed, and never properly healed. Charles is not sure as to the veracity of this story, and suspects that a genetic skin condition may have contributed to this. He and several of his children and grandchildren also suffer from severe skin allergies which may be related.

FUNERAL IS HELD FOR MRS. BESSIE PAYNE
