| 427 | "Memories of Dr. John Morris Were Stirred by Reunion" SAN AUGUSTINE TRIBUNE Thursday, June 26, 2003 (with picture of descendants) Katheryn Hanks Perry, a former San Augustine resident wrote, "My mother was Vera (MILLER) Hanks and her mother was Mittie (CROUCH) Miller, a sister to Laurena. Since my grandmother died when her children were quite small, her sisters became surrogate mothers to her three little girls. The story Uncle Johnny's decision to become a doctor has long stood in our family as a sterling example of determination and strong will. As Mother always told it, Uncle Johnny had a burning desire to become a doctor, which meant four years of studying in St. Louis. In the early years of the 20th century, he discussed in with Aunt Laurena, and she said 'Do it Johnny, we can make it.' They lived on a farm west of San Augustine and had seven children. Since he could be home during the summer, the plan was that he and the boys would put in the crop and begin the harvest, before he had to leave each fall for St. Louis. Many local people scoffed at such a fiasco, since he would be 40 years old when he started practicing, that age was considered near death. As you know, he practiced for over 40 years." | Morris, John A. M.D. (I18149)

| 456 | "Old Timers of Sabine County, Texas" by Virgie Collier Speights September 27, 1962 J. Preston Alford, age 89 years old, died September 21, 1962 at his home in Hemphill, Texas. It was the sixtieth-eighth wedding anniversary for Mr. and Mrs. Alford. Mr. Alford, a member of a prominent pioneer family of Sabine County, was a retired farmer. He was married on September 21, 1894 to Miss Ella Williams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Matt Williams of the Isla community. Mr. and Mrs. Alford were both born within a mile of each other in the Isla community and lived there after their marriage until 1919. At that time they moved to Hemphill where they had lived ever since. They had only one child, a daughter, Mrs. Carrie A. J. Neal of Hemphill. Grandsons William Neal of Pineland and G. A. Neal of Hemphill. Great grandsons, Tommy and Bobby Neal of Hemphill and Jimmy Neal of Pineland.

| 457 | "Old Timers of Sabine County, Texas" by Virgie Speights Page 23 June Smith October 3, 1963 June Smith sat on the porch of his home near Pineland and regaled more than 100 persons at his 80th birthday party with tales of early days in East Texas. Born at Sabinetown, he was the son of Henry and Martha Ann Morris Smith, and grandson of Shadrach Morris, who gave 200 acres of land in the early 1830s to found Sabinetown. His great grandfather, Gideon Morris, had donated a like amount for the founding of Morristown, Tennessee in the 1700s. His father Henry Smith who died before he was born, came from England to teach school at Milam and Sabinetown. As a boy, he grew up the hard way, but with lots of fun and frolicking. He recalls working hard, long hours on logging rafts, floating logs to Orange. He did the cooking before he was old enough to push logs. Frank Davis, a mail contractor, hired him at the sum of $5.00 a month to carry the mail from Hemphill to Geneva, when he was just a boy. At the age of 18, Mr. Smith helped to move his sister and family, the Ide Russells from Louisiana across the Sabine to Sabine County. There was a post office, a church, a school, a doctor, F.S. Love and 52 families. June Smith stayed there and farmed, first with his sister's family and then with his own until recently when he had to move nearer a doctor. His wife the former Miss Vessie Brittain, is an invalid since a fall a few years ago, which broke her hip. His was the last family to leave this now deserted community. He moved over to Pineland to live in a house owned by his son, Brittain Smith, who lives nearby. He does, however, still drive over regularly to care for his cattle, fix fences and dream of wonderful years when he was raising his family there. Not long after he helped move the Russells in an ox-drawn wagon, he met and married Miss Vessie Brittain, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. S. Brittain. There was a church wedding in 1904 with Burnis and Mattie Lou Honeycutt Vickers as attendants. The Brittains gave the couple 67 acres on which Ide Rusell helped his brother in law build a two room house with cypress shingles, stick and dirt chimney, big rooms and wide porches. There they worked hard, were self-sustaining and gradually prospered, buying more land, clearing and raising cotton for money crop, sheep for clothing, and hogs and cattle. Mr. Smith refused to shear the sheep, but accommodating neighbors Abb Vickers and Perkins Harvey were willing to help out. He liked to raise hogs and trained his to come when he called. There was the whole country for the cattle, sheep, goats, horses and hogs to roam in, even being taken across the river into Louisiana when grass or cane shoots were better there. Nothing was wasted. When land needed clearing, the whole community came in to help. Cooking went on for days, with food being cooked in huge iron pots. It was a frolic for the young people, who were expected to help in the work, though. The logs were used for houses, barns, rail fences, stove wood, etc. At butchering time, the same community spirit prevailed and the same thrift and utilization of everything. Cold weather was necessary, and the meat saved by curing the smoke. Everyone had a smokehouse, quite large with a fire of hickory wood, kept smoldering for weeks in the center of the dirt floor. Meat was hung from the rafters to absorb that hickory flavor. "They don't make that kind of meat these days," says Mr. Smith. They made what they called souse, now known as hogshead cheese. Excessive fat was trimmed off, after the sausage meat was set aside, and rendered into lard. Big iron pots outdoors over a fire were filled with these bits of fat, which were slowly stirred until nothing was left but cracklings. From these cracklings came the family soap. Lye, leeched from hardwood ashes, mixed with the cracklings, water added and cooked until bubbly thick. When cool, this soap was stored in crocks and used at laundry time. Clothes were boiled, after being soaked in soapy water, placed on a block and battled. This was to removed embedded soil from work cloths. The Smiths owned a "crackling squeezer", a luxury in those days, which squeezed the last bit of grease from the fat. Cracklings were also delicious cooked in cornbread. They also had a fine sausage mill. Once Mr. Smith's four year old daughter, Eula, caught her finger in the sausage mill. Afraid to turn the mill for fear it would cut off her ginger, they carried her to Dr. Love, sausage hanging by a bit of skin. The doctor splinted it up and Eula, now Mrs. Judge Cordray, has her finger just a bit scarred. Mr. Smith was active in church and community affairs. When the Rev CA Perkins an outstanding evangelist in the area, established the Methodist Sabine Circuit with both sides of the river as his charge, he credited Mr. Smith with being a factor in its establishment. He also owned the second car in Sabine County, a beautiful Model T Ford. Besides Mrs. Cordray of Isla community, his children are Mrs. Zelma Blasingame of Garland, Texas, Reece Smith of the Sexton community, Brittain Smith of Pineland, and Aldous Smith, a Methodist Minister, of Dayton, Bulah, who married Roy Allen, died in 1930 and Clarence died in 1928. There are 19 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren. | Smith, June Alvin (I15202)

| 460 | "One day [John McLemore]...was with his Uncle Maclin Bass McLemore in Rogersville. Maclin was a pilot on the Shoals. The Shoals, being a treacherous body of water and rapids, took a skilled person to navigate. That fateful day John and Maclin were captured by the army. Thinking John was too young (he was 15); he was told to go home and tell his aunt what had happened to her husband. Legend has it that Maclin was never heard from again." (The Heritage of Lauderdale County, Alabama, p. 347). He built a dogtrot house with one side log and the other frame, surrounded by large trees and log dependencies in an ideal rural setting. When Maclin McLemore returned from the ardous task of piloting boats over the treacherouse Tennessee River Shoals, he liked to prop his feet up in comfort. He found that comfortable place in the story-and-a-half dogtrot house which he built around the time of his marriage in 1843. (The Lure and Lore of Limestone County, p. 147) | McLemore, Maclin B.

| 466 | "Pioneers of Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory Volume II"; compiled and edited by Nova A. Lemons, contains a sketch of the Hardwick Family submitted by Jon Eastman Hardwick of Baird, Texas (now deceased). He stated that Crecia (Crecy) Harney "was a half blood Chickasaw, born 1860. Creacy died in Kingston, Pickens County." TWO WOMEN SLAIN IN FAMILY FEUD Marshall County Farmer's Home Scene of Double Tragedy MADILL, Okla., April 22 - (Special)- Mrs. Creacy Merriman, aged 60, and Mrs G. M. Mutz, 35 years of age, were shot and killed Thursday morning by J. W. Honeysuckle, 27, at the latter's home, about three miles northeast of Kingston. Honeysuckle fired two pistol shots into the body of each woman. Immediately after the second shot was fired into the body of Mrs. Merriman, she ran out of the house to the front porch where she fell dead. After Mrs. Mutz had been shot the second time she ran out of the room, and sat down by the side of the house. Mrs. Honeysuckle took the wounded woman back into the house and placed her in bed, where she died fifteen minutes later. Honeysuckle came to Madill and surrendered three hours later. He is now in the county jail here. According to Honeysuckle the double killing was the culmination of a quarrel over the guardianship of his three step-children. Honeysuckle had been married just one week when the killing occurred. According to Honeysuckle's statement, Mrs Merriman was the grandmother of his step-children, and Mrs. Mutz was his sister-in-law, her first husband having been his brother. At the time of the killing, Mrs N. F. Benson [Jennie Hardwick], a daughter of Mrs Merriman, and Mrs Honeysuckle, wife of the slayer, were the only other persons in the home. Honeysuckle says that there had been previous domestic trouble in the family. According to his statement, Mrs. Merriman and Mrs. Mutz drove up to his house during the rain about 9 o'clock Thursday morning. He says that he went to the door and invited the women to tie their team, and to come into the house, while it was raining. The women accepted the invitation, he says, and as they were entering the door one of the women made a remark which caused Mrs. Honeysuckle to object to their presence in the Honeysuckle home. The women entered the house, over the protest of Mrs. Honeysuckle, and attacked Mrs. Honeysuckle, knocking her down, says Honeysuckle, who alleges that while his wife was on the floor she was kicked by Mrs. Mutz. He says that he pulled the women from his wife and that they assualted him, pushing him back of a stove and against the wall. "Mrs Merriman picked up a butcher knife and started toward me," says Honeysuckle . "I warned her away several times and kept repeating, 'Don't make me hurt you.' The women kept crowding in on me. I drew a pistol and fired twice, one shot striking Mrs Merriman, the other hitting Mrs Mutz. The women grappled me, and while we were struggling I fired twice at Mrs Merriman, one of the bullets striking Mrs.Merriman, the other going wild and striking Mrs Mutz," says Honeysuckle. Mrs. Honeysuckle's three children, over whom the trouble occurred, are of Indian extraction by her former husband, Brit Hardwick, a son of Mrs Merriman. Mrs Merriman is a widow.

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.

| 478 | "Sabine County Historical Sketches and Genealogical Records" lists Mary Etta Vardeman's first husband as Wallis "Finn" Wallace. They do not provide any documentation for this, however. I believe Mary Etta's first husband was actually Thomson Wallace, and they can be located in Lawrence County, Mississippi at the time of the 1850 census. On that census, Thomson and Maretta Wallis were listed in the same household with a 3 year old Elizabeth and 1 year old Sophia. Thompson apparently died prior to 1860, because at the time of that census, Mary Etta was married to Henry Strickland White, and living with him in Sabine County, Texas. Her children from her first marriage were listed as follows: Elizabeth Wallis, age 14, Mississippi; Joseph Wallis, age 12, Mississippi; and Josephine Wallis, age 9, Mississippi. Note that Joseph was not listed in 1850, nor is a Sophia listed in 1860. I believe the 1860 census may have been in error, and that Mary Etta and Thomson were the parents of only three children: Elizabeth, Sophia and Josephine. Josephine was probably born soon after the 1850 census. Maybe the census taker confused the names Sophia and Joseph. Or, perhaps they did have a son named Joseph as well. In 1870, only 20 year old Josephine Wallace, listed as born in Texas, was still shown as living with her mother. But according to other records, a Josephine Wallace was already married to Elias Clark and living with him. I suspect it was actually Sophia Wallace who was still living at home with her mother in 1870. This suspicion can be confirmed by the fact that in 1880, 30 year old Sophie Wallace, born in Mississippi was the only child from her mother's first marriage that was listed in her mother's home. Sophia was married in 1890. | Family: Thompson "Finn" Wallace / Mary Etta "Polly" Vardeman (F69)

Solomon Harpole came to the United States from Germany. locating in Pennsylvania some time prior to 1790, and moved from there to Virginia, where he resided until his death." [Harpole, Andrew J. (1887) Recorded by him on the assumed questionaire form from which his "biography" was compile for inclusion in; Goodspeed, W.A. (1887) HISTORY OF TENNESSE. pub. Goodspeed:Nashville, TN] It is significant that only one of the two great-grandsons quoted by Goodspeed, Andrew Harpole, recalls that Solomon died in Virginia and that her personally came from Germany. This places of Solomon's origin and death as given by Andrew Harpole are incorrect. The Harpole family did come from Germany, but it was the generation before Solomon in 1737. The informant, Andrew, who was age 30 at the time, was eleven years younger than the other descendant Goodspeed quoted, great grandson John Harpole. John was age 41 at the time. John never mentioned the German birth or Virginia death. It is clear from this that the family origins were beginning to be obscured by the passage of time even in 1887. 1769-Solomon Harpole was born in Virginia. [Harpole, Belma Carroll & Agnes S.

[Obion County Historical Society (1985) Obion County History, Vol Two. Pub. Union City, TN] Solomon, along with his brothers Adam and Paul, presumably followed their probable cousins John and Martin. The newcomers cannot have been unaware of John and Martin's earlier exploits in the area of Wilson County. John was to become the guardian of Solomon's children following his death. Adam was in Wilson County from at least early 1792. 1797-Solomon purchased 480 acres of land in Sumner County, Tennessee, from Ephraim Payton in January 1797.
