On his Alabama Marriage license, he is shown as a son of Fred William Gailey and Nettie Levina Fitch, and age 31, born 18 Nov 1918 in Ingham County, Michigan, and shown as a resident of Dansville, Ingham County. His occupation was Farmer.
A scan of his obituary, from the Ingham County Community News, can be found on the FindAGrave memorial page for her, created by Kenneth L. Gailey.
Lloyd Gailey
Lloyd Gailey, 570 E. Dexter Trail, Dansville, died Tuesday, June 28, at his home. He was 58.
He is survived by his wife, Lilly; two daughters, Pearl Gailey and Mrs. Winnie Doctor of Dansville; and four sisters, Mrs. Bessie Oakley, Mrs. Iva Lantis and Mrs. Emma LaVette of Mason, and Mrs. Edna Edward of Detroit.
Funeral Services were held Friday, July 1, at the Jewett Funeral Home in Mason.
Melba Gene McLemore shows him as a son of William H. GAINES and Katie LeCROIX. His store advertised him as in the business of "Jeweler, Optometrist, and Watch Repair."
At the time of the 1930 census, 20 year old Clara was listed as divorced, and she and her daughter Charleen were living with her parents in Austin.
After divorcing Clara Gaines, it is possible that Jewel Hedrick remarried, and was living in Kiowa, Pittsburg County, Oklahoma, listed as being age 22. His wife, also age 22, was named Effie, and they had a 2 month old son, Junior. Also living with Jewel and his second wife were his parents, Frank and Mary Hedrick of Tennessee. At the time of the 1920 census, Frank and Mollie Hedrick can be found in Damon Twp, Latimer County, Oklahoma, along with three children, Larante, Olie and Jewel. That census listing, however, shows Jewel as born ca 1908 instead of 1898. This may have been simply an error in the transcription, but should be resolved. It is possible there were two Jewel Hedrick's.
Her second marriage was to Chapell CRUMLEY, and they had no issue.

Maurine Brydson passed away unexpectedly Sunday, May 28. She was 88. Born in Crowell, Texas on January 5, 1918, she was the youngest and last surviving of the five daughters of Albert and Minnie Bell Gaines. Her family moved to Austin when she was a young girl and she resided in the Austin area until her death. Her first husband, Lee Robertson, passed away in 1969. In 1984 she married Johnnie Brydson who died in 1995. She never bore children but her niece, Charlene Ingram; step daughter, Amy Bonds and nephew's wife, Judy Bloomquist were her "daughters". Her nephew, Marvin Bloomquist, was her "son". Their families were her "grandchildren".
Maurine and Johnnie married late in life after both losing spouses to cancer. They made up for lost time with a very full life. They especially enjoyed traveling, taking numerous trips to Europe, Hawaii, and all over the US. While Johnnie's unexpected death was a crushing blow, Maurine did not let it get her down. She continued an active social life and made trips to Italy, Ireland and New York City when she was well into her 80's. In August of 2004 she walked the Golden Gate Bridge in both directions. She lived alone at her home in Oak Hill, taking care of a beautiful yard, her cats, and a vegetable garden. She was active in her church, Abiding Love Lutheran, other social organizations, played bridge and dominoes, drove her own car, and throughly enjoyed life right to the end. She never met a stranger - she made everyone feel special and after talking to her a few minutes it was like she had been your life long friend. She was an inspiration to all of us as a way to stay young at heart when the body grows old. She had a zest for life but did not fear death. She saw it as the time she would be reunited with her beloved Johnnie and all of her friends who had gone before her. Her passing leaves a big gap in the lives of many but we were all blessed by her time on this earth.
Her friends are invited to join her family in a celebration of her life at Weed-Corley-Fish funeral home, 3125 North Lamar, at 11 AM Thursday June 1. Internment will be at Forest Oaks Memorial Park. A reception will follow at Abiding Love Lutheran Church, 7210 Brush Country Road. There will be a visitation Wednesday, May 31 at the funeral home from 6:30 to 8 PM. The family suggests donations to the Seton Heart Transplant Fund or a charity of your choice in lieu of flowers.

There is an oval format, quarter length, photograph of Salinda Galloway aged about fifty in the possession of Lewis Adair Payne (1997). It would have been taken in about 1885 and passed to Lewis via his grandmother Mary Evelyn Mounts and his Aunt Pearl. On the reverse is the inscription "My grandmother, Salinda Galloway McCoy."
Pearl Gentry (later Hall) wrote on the back. Her children have another larger picture of Salinda.

The daughter of Samuel Russell GARNER and Emily BLEWETT. She had her dad's green eyes and her mother's small physique. Her family was musical, and had a piano. Sons Harry and Russell played the violin, and daughter Hazel taught vocal lessons later in her life.
Clairborn Garrett, William's older brother, who operated a store in San Augustine, died in the winter of 1836. Jacob, Garrett's father, was appointed administrator of Clairborn's estate. Jacob quickly sold all of Clairborn's personal property, but for some reason was exceptionally slow to settle other estate manners. In fact, his reluctance to distribute his son's real property forced the probate court twic to order him to "make a showing." In 1839, when Clairborn's widow finally received one-fourth of the estate, she had already remarried John D. Nash. (From Noble, Harry Jr. "Garret Plantation Was One of Biggest" SAN AUGUSTINE TRIBUNE 13 April 1995, page 4)
Minta and her husband lived next to William and Lucretia Garrett in 1860. She appears to have died sometime thereafter, as in 1870, her three young children were living with the Garrett family, and in 1880, her son William was still living in the Garrett household, listed as a grandson. Henson and Parmelee, in their book THE CARTWRIGHTS OF SAN AUGUSTINE, indicate that she died on typhoid fever, after an illness of seven weeks. (p. 220)
There seems to be a discrepency with her age between the 1870 census (shown as age 10) and the 1880 census (shown as age 15). I am assuming the 1870 date is more accurate, based both on her age at the time of the 1860 census and her marriage date.
"Jacob Garrett was in the Ayish Bayou Dist. by 1824. His son, William, preceded him and his son, Milton, followed him. He served his district as Alcalde in 1830. He also served on the Permanent Council of the Mexican Government. Jacob bought the home of T. S. McFarland and settled on a league of land on the Attoyac River. A Garrett House still stands on the El Camino Real near the Attoyac." (White and Toole)
He was listed in the Sabine District of Texas at the time of the 1835 census, as a 59 year old widower with five household servants and their five children.
He was a juror in San Augustine County in 1840, for the murder trial of William Anderson, Alexander Horton, Lewellyn A. Temple and Hershal Corzine, accused of murdering John Bodine. The jury found the defendants not guilty. (Noble, TEXAS TRAILBLAZERS)
He died in 1842 leaving four heirs, a widow and three grown children--William, William's brother, Milton, and their sister. (Noble, "Garret Plantation Was One of Biggest" SAN AUGUSTINE TRIBUNE 13 April 1995)
Assumed that this is the James Garrett that married Mattie Gilbert by the process of elimination. He and Mattie were both unmarried in 1880, and both still living in their parent's home. This is confirmed by examining the 1920 census, where James parents were both shown as born in Tennessee, and his brother Claiborne was living with him. The obituary of his son, Milton Garrett confirms this.
The only other possible candidate living in San Augustine in 1880, was a J.A. Garrett, born ca 1856 in Mississippi. This J.A. Garrett was also unmarried in 1880, living in prencinct 2, household #88-92 with his 60 year old widowed mother from Alabama. J.A. Garrett's father was listed as being born in South Carolina. The aforementioned "J.A. Garrett" appears to be unrelated to the other Garrett's in San Augustine, and as such would not be a direct descendant of Alcade Jacob Garrett of Tennessee.

Memorial services for Janet will be held on Saturday, December 29, 2012 at 10:30 a.m. at the Milligan Auditorium in Milligan. Cremation has taken place and there will be no visitation. Private family graveside services will be at a later date in the Bohemian National Cemetery.
Memorials are directed to the family in lieu of flowers.
Janet Ann (Garrett) Vavra was born on May 5, 1940, in Geneva, Nebraska, to William "Pete" & Edna (Brower) Garrett and passed away on Tuesday, December 18, 2012, at the Nebraska Heart Institute in Lincoln, Nebraska, at the age of 72 years, 7 months, and 13 days. She was one of two children in the family.
As a young girl she was baptized at the Geneva Congregational United Church of Christ in which she was a member of the congregation for over fifty years. She also taught Sunday school there in her younger years. She attended Geneva High School and graduated with the class of 1958. After graduation, she attended Lincoln Beauty Academy and received her cosmetologist license and later worked for Mollene Gergen. She also worked for Lincoln Telephone and Telegraph as a switchboard operator.
Janet was united in marriage to Stuart Lee Vavra of Milligan, Nebraska on March 8, 1963, in Geneva, Nebraska. In March of 2013 they would have celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. To this union two daughters were born: Jana Marie and Jodene Renae. Together they made their home on the farm northwest of Milligan.
Janet was a stay-at-home Mom while the girls were little. She later worked for KMI Mobile Home Manufacturing in Geneva. Her biggest enjoyment was babysitting in her home with some special children whom were very dear to her heart. After her girls attended high school, she worked at Milligan House of Meats and The Food Basket for Charlie and Mary Uldrich. She was also a member of the Milligan HSSK Post 240 Legion Auxiliary.
Janet spent twenty-five years of her marriage sitting in the grandstands watching her husband, "Super Stu," compete in stock car racing. Weekends consisted of traveling from racetrack to racetrack throughout Nebraska. During their racing years, she and her husband met many dear friends. After Stu retired from circling the racetracks, she spent her later years following her twin grandsons racing. She spent timeless hours out in the garage watching the boys work on their racecars and cooking them homemade suppers. She was their number one fan. She also enjoyed attending her granddaughters sporting events, dance, and piano recitals. She was very proud of all the grandchildren's accomplishments.
Janet enjoyed bidding at auctions, rummaging through garage sales, searching for good buys at thrift shops, and finding treasures at storage unit sales. In Janet's spare time, she also enjoyed reading, doing word searches, and embroidering. She was able to embroider each grandchild a baby quilt and a quilt for each of her daughters too.
Janet was preceded in death by her parents, Pete & Edna Garrett; father-in-law and mother-in-law Edward & Lillian Vavra; brother and sister-in-law Dean & Charlotte Garrett; and brother-in-law Victor Hladky.
She is survived by her husband, Stuart of Milligan, NE; daughter and son-in-law Jana & Billy Slezak of Milligan, NE; daughter and son-in-law Jodene & Tom Lovegrove of Fairmont, NE; grandchildren Shane Slezak of Lincoln, NE, Shawn Slezak & Taylor Slezak of Milligan, NE, Whitney Lovegrove & Sydney Lovegrove of Fairmont, NE; sister-in-law Shirley Hladky of Seward; brother-in-law and sister-in-law Edwin & Beth Vavra of Milligan, NE; special acquaintances Jasmin, Noah, Lily, Jen & Kaydence; nieces and nephews and a host of other relatives and friends.
Presumably died before his mother. Not listed as a child of Mary Cartwright and William Garrett in Henson and Parmelees' book about the Cartwrights of San Augustine.
John "Jack" Garrett appears to have died before the 1880 census, as his young wife, Annie Gilbert Garrett is living at home with her parents and he is not listed either with his parents or individually.

Along with her cousins, Anna Holman and Victoria Thomas, she "Attended St. Mary's Hall, an elite Episcopalian finishing school founded in 1837 in Burlington, New Jersey, near Philadelphia...(enduring) terrible homesickness and culture shock upon...arrival in November 1854..(Mary) begged her father to 'come for me....We have no fire in our room and...it is so cold we do not know what to do...This is a lonesome place although there is so many girls, but they will not go with us they think that they are too good." (Henson and Parmelee, THE CARTWRIGHTS OF SAN AUGUSTINE, p. 174)
Henson and Parmelee also wrote that in 1862, Mary, "an old maid at twenty-two, also has typhoid, but recovered to help care for her deceased sister's children while their father was in the army." (ibid, p. 220)
Not living with her parents at the time of the 1880 San Augustine County census.
In Book Two of the San Augustine County, Texas Marriage book, there are marriage records listed for a "Mary Garrett" to Joseph Little in 1865, to Henry Sublett in 1869, and to Madison Sexton in 1876.
This Mary Garrett would have been around age 25 in 1865, and could have married Joseph Little. However, they can not be located either the 1870 or 1880 census of San Augustine County. If they did marry, he either died before 1870, and Mary next wed Henry Sublett; or they both moved away from San Augustine County prior to 1870.
The Mary Garrett who married Henry Sublett in 1869 was born sometime between 1835 (ref: 1880 census) and 1842 (ref: 1870 census). She was shown on both census transcriptions as being born in Texas, and that both her parents were born in Tennessee. This appears to be a good match for this Mary Garrett.
As Henry and Mary were still married in 1880, our Mary Garrett Sublett could not have wed Madison Sexton in 1876. Madison Sexton can not be located on either the 1870 or 1880 San Augustine County Texas census transcription.
Not living at home at the time of the 1880 San Augustine County census. Presumed to be either married or dead.
In Book Two of the San Augustine County, Texas Marriage book, there are marriage records listed for a "Mary Garrett" to Joseph Little in 1865, to Henry Sublett in 1869, and to Madison Sexton in 1876.
Mary would have been only 13 in 1865, presumably too young to have married Joseph Little. Joseph Little can not be located in San Augustine County in 1870 or 1880.
The Mary Garrett who married Henry Sublett in 1869 was somewhere born sometime between 1835 (ref: 1880 census) and 1842 (ref: 1870 census). As Mary was born circa 1852, she could not have been the Mary Garrett who was wed to Henry Sublett.
Mary would have been 24 in 1876, and would have been the correct age to marry Madison Sexton. No listing can be found for Madison and Mary Sexton in 1880 in San Augustine County. If they did marry, perhaps they moved away from San Augustine.
FindAGrave shows that she was married first to Thomas Jefferson CROUCH, in 1825, and they were the parents of William D. Crouch, 1826-1879 Myrtle Springs, Texas.
Settled on the east side of the Attoyac River, about nine miles west of the Ayish Bayou. He moved into a hand hewn log house and remained there for the rest of his life. The old log house still stands today. Owned by Milton Garrett's descendants, it is located on the south side of the Old San Antonio Road on top of the hill, one mile east of the Attoyac River. (Noble, San Augustine Tribune "William Garrett Plantation Was Near Town" 6 April 1995)
Per the 1860 census, he was a Farmer with $6,219 in real estate and $37,650 in personal property.
He was not listed on the 1870 census, presumably having died. His widow and all of his children were still living on the farm, which was now valued at $5,000, with $2,000 in personal property. Bill and Francis Harrison, a black couple with two young children were living with them as well, as household servants. Also living with them was 24 year old S.D. Horton from Alabama, a white farm laborer. By 1880, only Sam, Claiborne and James were still living at home.
