Was in the armed services, stationed in Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Worked for over 40 years as an independant trucker. Primarily he hauled grain from Oklahoma and Texas to the Port of Houston.
Email from Betty Strong on January 19, 2000: "Just a note to keep everyone informed. On Tuesday, 17 Jan., Jim Brasher (Caroline's husband) was transferring grain from his truck to the grain elevator in Chickasha, OK when he slipped into the augur and mangled his legs. His right leg below the knee had to be amputated. They have reconstructed his left leg and waiting to see if it will work. This is a sad time for all of the Strong's and his (Jim's) many friends and acquaintances. He is in the University Hospital in Okla. City. He is still heavily medicated. Caroline, Andy, & Libby are with Jim."
Obituary
James Earl "Jim" Brasher, 78, passed away peacefully at home Saturday July 15, 2017, in Duncan, Oklahoma.
Funeral services will be 2 p.m. Tuesday, July 18, 2017, in the Don Grantham Funeral Home Chapel with Rev. Glenn McGee officiating. Burial will follow in the Duncan Cemetery under the direction of the Don Grantham Funeral Home. Military honors will be provided by the Stephens County Honor Guard.
The family will receive friends on Monday Evening, 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the funeral home.
Jim was born on Nov. 10, 1938, in a pre-Civil War cabin in rural Decatur County, Tennessee, near the town of Decaturville. Jim, nicknamed "Red", was the fourth of eight children of his beloved parents Elvin and Flora Brasher. Jim entered the U.S. Army in 1957 and served as a radio operator overseas in Thule, Greenland. In 1959, while stationed at Ft. Sill, Oklahoma, he met Mary Caroline Strong from Duncan. They fell in love and were married on May 28, 1960. The newlyweds settled in Duncan, where they raised their four children and became life-long residents.
Jim worked at Halliburton in the shop from 1961 to 1972. Combining his love of trucks, people, and the outdoors, he bought a hay truck in 1967 and spent summers after work hauling hay around Stephens County for many farmers and ranchers. In 1974, Jim bought a semi-truck and started hauling grain and hay over the road as an independent owner-operator. The challenge and freedom of this way of life perfectly suited his spirit of independence, and provided a good living.
The family made many great memories on vacations to Tennessee, Colorado, and Texas. He also loved the role of "local tour guide" for any visitors. When Jim lost a leg in an accident in 2000, his positive attitude and strong character drove him to persevere, and he was back trucking again the next year.
Jim had a strong passion for honoring fellow veterans by helping them obtain the disability benefits they deserved by offering them transportation and crucial guidance through the VA system. After retirement in 2010, he was a fixture at the Duncan VFW where he enjoyed playing cards with many friends.
Jim's smile, winning personality, strong work ethic, and selfless dedication to helping others were hallmarks of his character. Jim never met a stranger, and never failed to aid someone in need, even if they didn't ask. Jim was a dedicated and beloved husband, father and grandfather who was proud of his kids and grandkids. He cherished spending time visiting with every one of his family and friends.
Jim is preceded in death by his parents, brothers, Paul, Jerry and Larry and sister Mary Ruth and beautiful granddaughter Alexandra.
Jim is survived by his wife, Caroline Brasher, of Duncan; Regina Stuart, and her husband, Don; Libby Morris and her husband, Terry; Andy Brasher and wife Kim; and Patti Moore and her husband Steve. Grandchildren Brandon, Shelby, Beau, Victoria, Trevor, Caroline, Jeremy, Caelan, Shannon and Kathleen. Great-grandchildren Jackson, Addison, James, Elizabeth and Clay all of whom he loved and was so very proud of.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Duncan VFW Post 1192, 2012 N. Hwy 81, Duncan, OK 73533.
Pallbearers were Butch Johnson, Randy Montgomery, Red Lowe, Jimmy Ledford, Roy McCauley, Darryl Loveday and Dayne Ledford

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.

When Edna applied for Social Security Benefits in 1972, based on her husband's earnings, they were living in Houston, at 2500 Glen Haven, 77025. She was 67 years old at the time. Her parents were shown as William Granville Pointer and Alice Josie Holland. She was born on April 23, 1905 in Milburn, McCullough, Texas.
Did she and Denton divorce? The following record, from the Rootsweb Texas Death Index, appears to be for Edna A. Kerr. She is listed as single however.
Kerr Edna A 02-03-1973 HARRIS F SINGLE
Her Texas Death Certificate, viewable online at FamilySearch.org, Texas Deaths, 1890-1976, shows her as the daughter of William A. Pointer and Alice Holland, and indicates she was born in Rochelle, Texas versus Milburn, she was also listed as married, so presumably the death index was in error. The informant was Denton Kerr.

I have ASSUMED that based on the 1900 Limestone County, Alabama Census, McLin is the son of the Joel H. McLemore of Limestone/Lauderdale Alabama , a son of Maclin B. McLemore. Maclin B.'s son Joel is the correct age, continued to live in proximity to his parents and siblings, and seemed to have named his son after his father. Additionally, McLin's widow is living next to a Maclin B. McLemore at the time of the 1930 census. This older Maclin B. McLemore would have been a brother to Joel H. McLemore and Uncle to McLin. However, MaryLynn Santa shows McLins' father as Joel Henry, whereas the Joel H. McLemore of Limestone/Lauderdale might actually be Joel Halbert McLemore.
Other researchers have not drawn a conclusion as to the parentage of Joel H. McLemore, so my conclusion may be premature, and further work should be done to prove this. It might instead be possible that McLin is instead the son of Joel H. McLemore of Hickman County, TN, and grandson of Joel McLemore Sr and his wife Harriet McLearen. The location and age of this other Joel H. McLemore, however, are not as good of a match. | McLemore, McLin Able (I32604)
