9901 I32395  Hardwick  Ida  Jan 1878  22 Apr 1915  The Dawes Enrollment packet of George Mutz indicated that is took some time for him to be enrolled as a citizen by intermarriage. The fact that he and Ida married first under a U.S. marriage license, and married again some four years later under a tribal license appeared to be one factor. Additionally, it appeared that the Choctaw and Chickasaw attornies originally protested the enrollment on the grounds that they suspected Ida was actually a full sister of George W. Blevins, Annie B. Roberts, John Orndorf and Mattie Hybarger, and first requested that a full examination be made of the records to determine who the parents of Ida Hardwick Mutz were. The chairman of the enrollment commision stated that upon examination, it was determined that Ida was indeed the daughter of Dave Hardwick, now deceased, who was a citizen by blood and resident of Pickens County, and Creecy Merriman, who was presently age 42 and a citizen by blood.

"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 Ida was born in April 1877 and died in 1915. J. W. Honeysuckle, in a article below relating to the death of Ida Mutz and her mother, Crecy Harney Hardwick Merriman, stated that Ida had been first married to his brother, a Honeysuckle, prior to her marriage to George Mutz.

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.

J. L. Hardwick, Police Officer Here, Is Dead

James Lilburn Hardwick, 57 year old police officer, was stricken by a heart ailment Sunday while washing his automobile in the driveway of his home, 936 West Commerce avenue, and died en route to Samaritan hospital.

Hardwick, a member of the department since Nov. 11, 1927, was a familiar figure to Capital Hill residents, where he walked one of the few remaining beats in the city, and directed traffic the last year. For many years prior to that his beat was on Reno and California avenues from Harvey to Santa Fe avenue.

He was born Dec. 31, 1883, on a ranch in Marshall County. His father, Joseph Hardwick, was United States marshal here in territory days.

Hardwick came to Oklahoma City before the run of '89 and worked at Wilson & Co. many years before being appointed to the old highway enforcement division of the state license bureau. He was a rate clerk and a guard at the state treasurer's office and served as a special officer at a bus station before joining the police department.

Surviving, in addition to wife, Minnie, are a son, Lilburn Leo Hardwick, 3500 South Harvey avenue; a daughter, Betty Jo, of the home address, and a brother, Dave Hardwick, Port Angeles, Wash.

Arrangements will be announced by the Capitol Hill funeral home.

Or did that earlier census record actually relate to Joseph, said to have been born in 1850?

"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 John David Hardwick was an U.S. mashal and was killed in the line of duty. John and Creacy were both buried in the old Harney graveyard. He thought that the cemetery was moved to near Woodville at the time Lake Texoma was built.

The FORT SMITH CRIMINAL CASE FILES, 1866-1900, references a case involving Dave Hardwick. It related to an incident that took place 23 January 1883 in Texas "on the Indian Nation." Charles CRISWELL testified that on that night a party of five men, including Milton B. OVERTON, Brit WILLIS and Dave HARDWICK came to his home and asked to stay the night and have their horses fed. They also wanted supper. He went to feed the horses and then Milton Overton "got after my wife (Sarah CRISWELL)" ----she jumped the fence and ran into the smokehouse. He grabbed her by the ankle, and Charles tried to push him away. Milton pulled out his pistol and Sarah CRISWELL hollered because she was afraid. Then HARDWICK came out with a pistol. Charles told him to put up the gun so no one would get hurt. HARDWICK told OVERTON to "behave himself and let the Woman get supper". The defendants later said they came from Sherman and had rented the horses out of the stable Charles said he was born in South Carolina and he was an Irishman. His wife was born in Grayson Co and was a White Woman and not an Indian. CRISWELL reported that Milton OVERTON told him the next morning that he was a Chickasaw, he said they were all Chickasaws. Charles said that he married his wife about 5 or 6 months previously in Grayson county. She was 35 and had been married once before. He said that HARDWICK did not molest his wife that night, and that as quick as Brit WILLIS got off his horse that evening, he had said he was sick and went straight to bed and did not attempt to molest his wife. Lewis COLBERT also did not attempt to molest his wife in any way---none of the defendants attempted to molest his wife in any way except Milton OVERTON. CRISWELL also said that he had heard later from a neighbor that the defendant Dave HARDWICK was an officer. Dave HARDWICK testified he was Constable in the Chickasaw Nation. He said he had four men with him as a posse to assist in making an arrest. They were Milton OVERTON, Brit WILLIS, Frank McLISH, and Lewis COLBERT. Milton Overton was 19 or 20 years of age and they "were all sober." He said he "did not see or hear nor was not Informed of any ??? between Milton and Mrs. Criswell on that night. I did not see Milton use any Improper Language or Conduct towards Mrs. Criswell. I did not tell Milton at any time that might to put up his pistol or behave himself when I went out to see where our Horses were and came back I said to Milton 'Come and lets go to bead that was all I said to him.'" HARDWICK further testified that he and Milton slept in the same room all night, that they had breakfast the next morning with the CRISWELL's and then paid for their keep and left. Charles CRISWELL was recalled to the stand and testified that they men were drinking something from a flask.

B. F. OVERTON, the father of Milton Overton, posted appearance bonds for everyone involved. He was Governor of the Chickasaw Nation at the time.

Jon Eastman Hardwick, in his article in "Pioneers of Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory Volume II" writes that John David Hardwick and Frances Dunephin "had a DAUGHTER, name not known." (Emphasis added).

It appears that this daughter must be Mary T. "Mollie" Hardwick, born 23 Oct 1872 in Indian Territory. Mollie married Thomas Bunker Payne in Pickens County, Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory, in 1891. She died in 1893, leaving behind her husband and one son, Thomas Hamilton Payne II. Thomas Bunker Payne later enrolled in the Chickasaw Nation based on his marriage to Mollie.

The actual marriage license between Thomas and Mary shows her last name as HARDWICK. Thomas B. Payne's application for enrollment in the Chickasaw Nation by marriage shows the name as HARDRICK. That spelling appears to be incorrect.

All circumstantial evidence points to this being the only family into which Mary "Mollie" Hardwick, the wife of Thomas B. Payne, could fit. However, there is not as yet any definative proof. PLEASE EMAIL US at stxstrong@gmail.com if you can provide more information about the child of John David Hardwick and Sarah Dunephine, and/or help us prove or disprove that this child was Mary T. "Mollie" Hardwick.

Hargrove, third generation rancher, retires

Vance Hargrove's great-grandfather, Franklin Marion Hargrove, purchased his large farm/ranch around 1869 and his father, John Franklin Hargrove worked this land and owned cattle until his death in 1969. It was at that time that Vance took charge. Vance had his 90th birthday on Monday, October 28. On Wednesday, Oct. 30, he loaded up all his cattle and sent them to the auction to be sold, saying it was time for him to retire. The farm/ranch is located in the Rosevine community in Sabine County on FM 1, approximately 1 mile south of the San Augustine County line. Vance has served on numerous boards and committees in San Augustine and Sabine counties. Some of these being ASCS, Pineywoods Water Conservation, Rosevine Cemetery, Sabine County Farm Bureau Insurance Board, GM Water Board and Milam Settlers Day Organization. He is well known by young and old alike, having worked with many youth programs in years past. For years he was a very active member in the Sabine County Trailriders Association. Many will remember Vance and his old gray mare "Pat" which he rode in parades and trailrides. Vance states that he couldn't have stayed in the ranching business as long as he had without the help and support of his brother, Noble Hargrove. Noble came back to the homeplace to live in 1981 with his wife Jean. When asked what he is going to do in his spare time, he said he is going to live life to the fullest, have a good time, and visit with his friends and neighbors at Donald Griffin's Korner Grocery.

Thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Roland Fuller for collective information.

Obituary

Mr. Vance L. Hargrove, 101, longtime centenarian of the Rosevine Community in Sabine County, Texas, passed from this life late Thursday evening, December 19, 2013, in San Augustine, Texas.

Vance was born October 28, 1912, and lived most of his life in the Rosevine Community in Sabine County on Farm Road 1. He was very active in the Farming/Ranching and Cattle and Trail rides throughout East Texas. He was instrumental in establishing the Sabine County Jr. Livestock Show in the mid-1980's and served on its board of Directors for many years. He did the same with the Piney Woods Soil and Water Conservation District.

In the late 1920's and early 1930's he worked in a construction crew, blasting stumps from the highway right-of-way during construction of the section of Highway 8 between Bronson and Ford's Corner, which was paved in 1936 to become Highway 59, which was renamed Highway 96 in 1939, and then was later again renamed Farm Road 1 in 1951.
About six to seven years ago, while conducting a tour of Farm Road 1 for a news reporter from the Beaumont Reporter, who was doing a cover story on the Highway, they stopped at Vance's home.

For over an hour, Vance told stories of the construction of Farm Road 1,(or old number 8, as he called it). It was one of those times that was regretted not having a audio or video recorder.

Vance served in the US Army during World War II, his term of enlistment was from March 21, 1942 to December 24, 1945. He served in a tank unit and fought in the New Guinea, Southern Phillipines and Luzon campaigns.

Funeral Services will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday, December 22, 2013, in the Wyman Roberts Memorial Chapel in San Augustine. Interment will follow in the Rosevine Cemetery in Sabine County, Texas. Visitation will be from the hours of 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday, December 21, 2013, at the Wyman Roberts Funeral Home in San Augustine.

Those who are left to cherish include, Speical Friend, Sue Young of Milam; Nieces, Linda Hill and her husband, Tony of Arlington, Texas; Carolyn Lawson and her husband, Joe of Shelbyville; Mary Ann Ann Smith of Shelbville; Dayna Page and her husband, Mike of Livingston; Gina Jones and her husband, Bobby of Diboll; and Jan Farmer and her husband Ken of Pasadena, Texas; Nephews, Bill Hargrove and wife, Barbara of Abita Springs, La.; John Hargrove and wife, Connie of Shelbyville; Honorary Relatives, Becky Randy and Whit Michalec of Rosevine Community, along with numerous other relatives.

9942 I48139  Harkrider  David Rawson  11 Aug 1935  3 Feb 2009  Memorial services are planned for David Rawson Harkrider, 73, at 1:30 p.m. Thursday, February 12, 2009, at the Horan & McConaty Funeral Home, 5303 E. County Line Road, Centennial, Colo. 80122. David Harkrider was born on August 11, 1935, in Beaumont, Texas. He died Tuesday, February 3, 2009, at his home in Denver, Colo.

David was the son of J.D. and Thelma Harkrider. His mother, Thelma, preceded David in death. He is survived by his father, J.D. Harkrider of Nacogdoches; his wife, Elaine, of Denver, Colo.; daughter, Wendy; two sons, Paul and wife, Jana, John and wife, Jenell; and six grandchildren, Ross, J.D., Conrad, Colin, Jordan and Sydney. He is also survived by one brother, Robert, and wife, Arline, of Florida and their children, Beth, John, Amy and Anne. David moved to Nacogdoches in 1944 with his parents.

He graduated from Nacogdoches High School in 1953 and then attended Abilene Christian College on a football scholarship. While there, he met and later married Elaine Schultz December 14, 1954. David decided while still in high school that he wanted to prepare his life to preach the gospel of Christ. He was gifted with a clear analytical mind that enabled him to become an exceptional scholar and teacher of the Bible and a great debater. After David graduated from Abilene Christian College, he worked with churches in East Texas, California and Alabama. He moved to Denver in 1965 and spent most of his life preaching in Denver. For many years, he conducted a live, call-in radio program that was open to any Bible questions. David loved his family, he loved his church, and he loved young people and sports. He coached youth football and baseball for over forty years. Some of his teams not only won league championships, but also state and national championships.

Four of his former players went on to play professional football, and two played major league baseball. David will be missed by a loving family and a host of friends. Memorial donations, may be made to the David Harkrider Memorial Scholarship Fund, Nacogdoches High School Alumni Association, P.O. Box 632152, Nacogdoches, Texas 75963.

9943 I13247  Harkrider  James David "J. D."  24 Oct 1911  28 Aug 2017  James David Harkrider passed from this life Monday, August 28, 2017 in the home of his first-born granddaughter, Wendy Harkrider. Also by his side was Jenell Harkrider, his granddaughter-in-law. Mr. Harkrider had been in their loving care since May 12. Born in Center, TX, October 24, 1911, he lived to the age of 105. He was the son of Robert E. Harkrider and Elma Redditt Harkrider. He was preceded in death by his wife, Thelma Rawson Harkrider, his son David Rawson Harkrider and daughter-in-law Elaine Schulze Harkrider.

A longtime resident and businessman of Nacogdoches, Mr. Harkrider moved here in 1944. He managed the Gulf service station on the corner of Main and North St. for several years; then purchased the property on North Street which became Harkrider Motor Company. During the late 1950's he sold new Volkswagens from that site. There were no VW dealerships then. He just drove to Houston, bought them off the dock and brought them to east Texas. That property was later sold to Clint Murchison, Jr. (founder of the Dallas Cowboys). Another property was purchased on South Street which became American Auto Salvage. He operated this business until he "retired" in 1977. During those years he also ran the wrecker service for Nacogdoches County. He has said of himself, "I have bought, sold, and traded almost all my life."

JD Harkrider was a faithful member of the church of Christ. He served as a deacon and was instrumental in the beginning years when the group first worshiped on Baker Street and later built on the corner of Mound and Starr. He served the church whole-heartedly for over 50 years "retiring" as deacon after the new Stallings Drive church of Christ began meeting in the year 2000. His wife, Thelma, died that year and the next year he sold his home on the corner of Starr and Baker to SFA. He lived in Birmingham, AL with granddaughter Anne Underwood for a few years, then moved back to the Fredonia Hotel for many years and made himself quite a life there pursuing a new hobby of planting roses everywhere and enjoying the Fredonia family. After the hotel closed he moved to Orlando, FL to live with Robert and Arline Harkrider. Eventually he returned to Nacogdoches and resided at Magnolia Court until May of this year.

JD lived to serve others. He was very active in mind and body until just days before his passing. He was quick-witted and full of stories and life experiences and is remembered by many for his "one-liner" expressions.

Funeral services will be held Monday, September 4, 2017 at the Cason Monk-Metcalf Sunset Chapel with visitation at 10:00 A.M. followed by the funeral service at 11:00 A.M. Robert Harkrider and Randy Harshbarger will officiate the service. Burial will be at Sunset Memorial Park.

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.

A suggested hypothetical date might be later than 1797, however, we know that his father Solomon purchased land in Sumner County in 1797---when John would have been five years old

1808-Death of John's father, Solomon Harpole. John was sixteen years of age. John Harpole Sr was guardian of William and Polly, and may also have been named guardian of John. This close relationship indicates that John Sr. might actually have been another son of Solomon's, and not just a nephew.

1826-John Harpole marries for the second time, in Rutherford County, Tennessee. This county is next door to Wilson County on the southside. His wife, Mary Ann, is probably in ther late thirties based on the 1830 census. She is identified as Mary Ann McMinamy. She is not described as a widow.

1826-[John Harpole's military] services was acknowledged...by the [Tennessee State] Government granting him 160 acres of land in what was to become Obion County, Tennessee. [Harpole, John Thomas (1887) Recorded by him on the assumed questionaire form from which his "biography" was compiled for inclusion in Goodspeed]

-John Harpole was listed, among others, as an early settler in the north-east of Obion County (later District No. 1 of Obion County). "Among other early settlers were Obidah Roberts, northwest of Union City; Benjamin Totten at Totten's well, in the northeast part of the county; also in the same locality Jethro L. Byrd, John Harpole and Thomas Sayles." [Goodspeed (1887) THE GOODSPEED HISTORY OF TENNESSEE pub. Goodspeed:Nashville, TN] It is recorded that John's son Solomon Wesley Harpole...."came to Obion County in 1826 (when he would have been eleven years old) and resided on the farm later owned by (his own son) John T(homas Harpole), for two years..." [Harpole, John Thomas (1887) Recorded by him on the assumed questionaire form from which his "biography" was compiled for inclusion in Goodspeed]

"The first wheat planted in Obion County was planted by Lemuel Curlin and John Harpole. They cleared the land together. The forest was so very heavy, clearing land was no easy task." [Curlin, Thomas R. in convesation with his son R.T. Curlin. Extracted from Marshall's OBION COUNTY HISTORY and quoted in "Obion Origins" pub. by Obion County Genealogical Society in August 1986]

1827-Pamelia C. Harpole, the precise spelling varies, was born in March, and almost certainly in Obion County. There is no known contemporaneous record of this event. She appears to have been the first child born to John's second wife, May Ann McMinamy. She was incorrectly thought to have been born seven years earlier to John's first wife. This misunderstanding was recorded in HARPOLE COUSINS but this secondary record (original source unknown) is still an important source and in independant of Kenneth Harvey's family confirmation of her close relationship to John Harpole. Pamelia is listed as the wife of John M. Gentry on the 1850 Obion County, Tennessee census. William Harpole was once considered as her possible father, however he was ruled out because of the existance of a full listing of William's children in both the Obion County History [Obion County History Society (1985) OBION COUNTY HISTORY, VOL II Pub. Union City, Tennessee] and in HARPOLE COUSINS.

John most likely kept both farms, as a grandson of his was to be born on and inherit the southernmost property. It seems probable he received two land grant of 80 acres each, two miles apart. One of these pioneer log residences, presumably the second, was still standing until 1991, when it burnt down. It was known, at the time, to be the oldest house in north-west Tennessee.

1829--"Some Interesting Facts About Early Obion County and Union City, TN" by T.D. Ozment states: Lem Curlin and John Harpole cleared some land in about 1829 and planted the first wheat ever planted in the county. According to Marshall's history this was just a few miles northeast of Union City."

1830-Rec. of John Harpole $3 and 50 cents for Smith work done in the year 1828 and 1829 up to the present date. February 19, 1830 /s/ Jesse Thompson. [Harpole, Belma & Agnes HARPOLE COUSINS]

1830 Federal Census: John was listed in the first Federal census of the county and his household age structure was reported as one male between ages 5/10 (Wilson P, age 8), two males aged between 10/15 (Solomon W, age 14 and Albert C., age 12) One female between 5/10 (Millie, age 6) and one female, presumably Mary Ann, aged circa 45. It is puzzling that Pamelia is not accounted for, who would have been around three years old. Kenneth Harvey does not believe that Millie is a nickname for Pamelia, as both individuals are recorded in different households in the 1850 Obion County census.

1833-Rec. of John Harpole one dollar and 62 and 1/2 cents in full of State & County tax for the year 1832. [Harpole, Belma & Agnes HARPOLE COUSINS]

1834--Both John and James Harpole are summonded by the Sheriff to serve as Grand and Petty Jurors at the Circuit Court meeting in Troy in November 1834. [Minutes of the Court of Quarter Sessions of Obion County 1834-1836. Transcriptions of the County Archives of Tennessee 1941] The identity of James Harpole is unknown.

1837-John Harpole was assessed as "W(hite) Poll 1" like all other 94 taxpayers in Obion County, District 1. He was recorded as owning 250 acres and no slaves.

1850-The 1850 census index for Obion County, Tennessee shows: John Harpole (59), born in Virginia, and those of his children at home; (Wilson) Page (28), Millie (26) and William (Alexander) (18). John's mother, the elderly (Anna) Christianna Bettes, born in 1770, was living in their home.

1857-John Harpole is recorded as possessing no slaves, three horses, one mule, eleven cattle, fifteen sheep, thirty five swine, 72 bushels of wheat and 250 bushels of corn. [Agricultural Wealth of the County of Obion 1857 (extracted from a book containing the statistics in the Registry of Deeds Office in Obion County]

1860-Not located in the 1860 census.

1861-Date of death cited in HARPOLE COUSINS was 12 February 1861. May actually have died prior to the 1860 census.

The Harpole cemetery is located on land belonging to Tom Elam (as of 1986), east of Jordan Highway on the old Hickman-Dresden Road. No tombstones have been found but John Harpole and his two wives are buried to the east of the Log House, according to CEMETERIES OF OBION COUNTY, TENNESSEE VOL. ONE. This reference to John Harpole, and his two wives by a non-family source, confirms that John was known locally to have married a second time. The "second wife" referred to in this case was probably actually his mother, Anna Christina Dice. His real first wife, Elizabeth Swingley, was buried in Wilson County.

9975 I163  Harpole  Pamelia C  20 Mar 1827  19 Jul 1903  The following biographical details were compiled by Ken Harvey:

1827-Pamelia was born in March, possibly in Obion County, although her mother may have returned to the family home in Rutherford County for the birth of her first child. No record has been found of the event. The Obion County organization was created in 1832, and it is possible that early records were lost or never created in the first place. Pamelia's birthdate is recorded on her tombstone. The following is in HARPOLE COUSINS "Permelia E. Harpole (dau. of John and Elizabeth Swingley Harpole, page 368) b. March 20, 1820; d. May 13, 1847 m July 18, 1846 to James H. Chandler, Madison County, Tennessee." The date of birth appears to be incorrect, seven years to the day too early, and Pamela was born following the death of Elizabeth Swingley. Additionally, it was her first husband, James Chandler who probably died circa 1847. Lynell Cordell wrote to the authors of "Harpole Cousins" to ask about this and they could not tell her where they obtained the original information.The birth date in the book and the birth date on Pamelia's grave stone both show March 20, so they could very well be the same person, but that still leaves the year in doubt.

The 1830 and 1840 census records for the John Harpole family:

1830 census, Obion Co. TN pg. 159 Schedule: Male-Females, 0-5, 5-10, 10-15, 15-20, then in increments of 10. Harpole, John, 012001-0100001 (The youngest female was 5-10 years old, born between 1820 and 1825)

1840 census, Obion Co. TN Schedule: Given and Surname of head of household and number of male/female. Males: 0-5, 5-10, 10-15, 15-20, 20-30, 30-40, 40-50, etc until 13th number, which is over 100. Females are the 2nd group of numbers. 133. John Harpole, 0101201-00001001 (Youngest female was between 20-30, born between 1820 and 1830)

1846 - James H. Chandler married Permilia (sic) Harpool on July 19, 1846, Obion Co., Tennessee. Bond: J. H. Chandler and Thomas G. Jenkins. Officiant: Cage Hale, J.P. The marriage license was issued the previous day. [Gary, Grace D. & Stricklin, Carolyn W. (1978) OBION COUNTY TENNESSEE MARRIAGE RECORDS 1824-1877]. "Our" Pamelia would have been aged 19 at this time. It is probable that her husband James died a short time afterwards without children and Pamelia remarried soon after. James H. Chandler died in 1849, and his estate sold the following items to Albert C. Harpole, Pamelia's brother: "table cloth, 2 peased quilts & linens, chest, bedstead & cord, 3 bed quilts, cover lid, and blanket," for a total amount of $27.25. These items may have been bough for Pamelia. At that time, if there was no will, the wife did not inherit even the necessities. According to the book, Harpole Cousins, Albert's sister Permelia was already dead by this time.

Sometime prior to 1849, Pamelia married John Melton Gentry. The marriage was probably conducted by John's father, the Baptist preacher and J.P., William Gentry. He may well have forgotten to record the ceremony in the Obion Courthouse. No marriage record for John M. Gentry and Pamelia Harpool, or Chandler, has every been found. The early death of Pamelia's full brother, William Harpole, would not have helped in perpetuating her memory with the Harpole family who remained in Tennessee after Pamelia moved to Texas with the Gentry's.

1850-Pamelia was living in the Gentry household with John and his mother, Polly, and his siblings. Pamelia and John are both shown as age 23. The rest of the census records in Texas and Indian Territory shows Pamelia only 2 to 3 years older than John, or the same age.

Lynell contends that the supposition that Pamela is the daughter of John Harpole and Mary Ann McMimany is still far from proven. Her contention is that we are ignoring some things in "Harpole Cousins," such as the books dates for John and Elizabeth McSwigley Harpole's daughter, Permelia and yet take as a fact that *our* Pamelia is the daughter of John Harpole. And until the date of birth can be proven or disproven, we don't know whether her mother is Elizabeth Swigley or Mary Ann McMinamy.

1860 - It is very noticable that there are no Harpoles in this census of Tennessee. There are however quite a lot of Harpools. Had the name undergone further anglisation? None of the 1850 Harpoles can be identified in 1860.

1903 - Transcription of Pamela's Tombstone:

MRS P. C. GENTRY/ WIFE OF /J. M. /GENTRY/ BORN MAR.20.1827/ DIED/ JULY 18. 1903

The name was pronounced Pa-meal-ya but spelled like Pamela or Pamelia.

RECORDED SPELLINGS

Pamilia Harpole

Pamelia C Gentry

Permelia C. Gentry

E. Gentry

Pamela Harpool

Permelia Gentry

P. C. Gentry Could the middle initial "C", used in the census and tombstone inscription, have, in fact, been a poorly written "G" for Gertrude? A granddaughter of Pamelia was named Permelia Gertrude in 1877; presumably named after her. The strong argument against this is that the "C" does occur three times.

Puzzlingly, Permelia name was represented by the initial "E." in the 1870 census of Johnson County, Texas. Was this simply an enumerator's error? It certainly looks like it.

Ruth Pearl Gentry had (1980) a picture of Pamelia C. Harpole which is presumably now [1996] in the possession of one of her children. Scott Philip Hall is thought to have inherited the family photographs including the portrait of Pamelia Harpole. He left Pampa, Texas, and is living (1997) in either New Mexico or Arizona. Lynell Gentry has a large portrait of Pamelia with her husband.

In 1900 Permelia recorded on the census that she had had seven children of whom two were now dead. The children who did not survive were presumably Ellen and Sallie. They may have died without issue but we cannot be certain of this.

1903-Photographed in a family group photo in her home in Alma with her husband John and two children.

Fay Payne Yeager thinks that our Pamelia [Harpole] was Cherokee Indian but I (Kenneth Harvey) have never asked her why she thinks so. This is certainly not correct.

9976 I1626  Harpole  Solomon  11 Jan 1769  Between 1807 and 1808  "Solomon Harpole and [Anna] Christiana, his wife, whose maiden name was Dice. 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. (1986) HARPOLE COUSINS]

1790--Solomon and Christina Harpole moved to Sumner County, TN from Virginia in the 1790's with their young family. [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. [Sumner County Deed Books] Sumner was the parent county of Wilson County.

1799--On December 23rd, Wilson County, Tennessee, was founded in the [John] Harpole [Sr.--cousin of Solomon] home. [Merritt, Dixon Edit. (1961) THE HISTORY OF WILSON COUNTY---ITS LAND AND ITS LIFE History Associates of Wilson County] Dr. David Harold Harpole of Richmond, Virginia, in his correspondence with Kenneth C. Harvey noted that the Wilson County Court met there for its first five sessions until the courthouse was built. That building in turn later proved inadequate.

1800-Governor Sevier issued captain's commisions in the new militia regiment created for Wilson County on May 30, 1800. Solomon Harpole was one of the five men named. [Merritt, pg 41] He appears to have relinquished this role of Captain a few years later.

1806-Solomon Harpole (along with cousin/brother John Harpole) signed, with sixteen other Justices of the Peace of Wilson County, a Petition, on 15 April 1806, on behalf of Edward Mitchell. Mitchell was commissioned to "complete the public building Courthouse etc" Due to "unforeseen difficulties" the funds allowed to Mitchell were insufficient and the petitioners requested that a County tax may be levied to relieve the situation.

According to Partlow's WILSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE WILLS and to his index to WILSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE DEED BOOKS, the following transactions took place as a part of the settlement of Solomon Harpole's estate:

1808-Solomon Harpole sale on 20 Feb 1808. Among buyers are Mrs. Harpole and John Harpole. John Harpole administrator. Recorded 16 May 1808.

Thomas Patterson and Polly, his wife, formerly Polly Harpole, daughter of Solomon Harpole, deceased, transferred ownership of 56 acres on Spring Creek to Wyatt Bettes on 16 August 1816. Recorded in Wilson County Deed Book F. Presumably this was the land she inherited from her father.

Doris Elizabeth Harre was born January 9, 1938, the twelfth of 15 children to John and Theresa (Leif) Harre at the family farm north of Exeter, Nebraska. Doris passed away at the age of 86 on June 26, 2024 at Fairview Manor in Fairmont, Nebraska.

Doris graduated from Exeter High School in 1955. She was wed to United States Air Force Airman Richard (Nick) Nicholas on February 16, 1957, at St. Stephen's Catholic Church in Exeter. The couple resided in Lincoln and began a family with the birth of Shari (Michl) in 1959 and Timothy in 1960. The family relocated to MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Florida and later to Tucson, Arizona, where Nick was stationed at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base. In 1971, a third addition to the family, Hope (Strate) was born at Holloman Air Force Base near Alamogordo, New Mexico. After Nick completed his 20-year term in the military, the family made a final move to Exeter, where Nick and Doris settled into the family home they shared for 50 years. Nick and Doris shared 65 years together before Nick's passing in 2022. Doris spent her final year at Fairview Manor in Fairmont.

As an Air Force wife, Doris found herself in both parent roles at times, and managed the household with patience, love and a little discipline. She held down jobs ranging from Arizona dog groomer to Exeter daycare provider to waitress at Sweetwater tavern in Exeter, and was known by her brothers for her raisin cream pie. She loved to play cards, with pinochle, euchre and pitch her games of choice, and made a few trips to casinos just for fun. Her grandchildren and great grands were the lights of her life, and she was always most excited when another baby joined the family.

Doris was preceded in death by her parents, John & Theresa; sisters, Reta Mae Coffey, Evelyn Coffey, Gladys Coffey, Patricia Hansen, and Joan Kuska; brothers, Lawrence Harre, Kenneth Harre, Jerome Harre, Gene Harre, Paul Harre, and Aloysius Harre.

Doris is survived by her three children, Shari (Alan) Michl of Exeter, Tim (Marie) Nicholas of Central City and Hope (Ken) Strate of Exeter, grandchildren Allison (Jeb) Bitz and Nathan (Abby) Michl; Matthew (Jennifer) Nicholas and Angela (Noah) Broekemier; Victoria Androyna and Deidre (Kevin) Boyle; her beloved great grandchildren: Evie, Jonah, Leo, Layne, Cason, Avery, Oliver, and Amelia; sisters, Jeanette Paulus of Loveland, Colorado and Leona Smith of New Braunfels, Texas; and brother, Frank Harre of York, Nebraska.

I am most interested in determining the ancestry of Reuben Harrell who settled in Sabine County, Texas about 1860. My interest is in determining his ancestry and possible connections to the other North Carolina Harrell families who migrated to Georgia and then onward to Texas."

An excerpt from my file on the Texas Harrells: Reuben Harrell was born 1825 in Pulaski County, Georgia and married Charity W. Lampkin 8 Jul 1857 in Pulaski County, Georgia. Reuben migrated to Sabine County, Texas by 1860 and married second, Permelia Jane Mason, widow of George W. Neal. He had three children born between 1866 and 1871 in Sabine County, Texas. Nothing further is known of this family but it is suspected that he is a descendant of Levi Harrell 1750 of Anson County, North Carolina as Levi had numerous descendants who settled in Pulaski County, Georgia."

She was probably assuming her name was Isabella based on the middle name of Keton's daughter Rebecca, apparently named for her mother.

She was actually the daughter of Solomon J. HARRELSON. It is believed that she died in childbirth, along with her eighth child, around 1853, probably in Jefferson County Texas. When son Felix Harrelson McLemore applied for an insurance policy, he listed his mother's cause of death as dysentery, after an illness of six weeks.

9992 I7029  Harris  Alexander  Abt 1810  Yes, date unknown  In the book "Sabine County Historical Sketches and Genealogical Records" by Edna McDaniel White and Blanche Findley (sic) Toole, it was stated that "Theophilus Alexander Harris, b. 1810, m Elizabeth Reeves, b. 1817 in S. C., and came to Texas prior to 1837. He was Justice of Peace in Milam in 1837. He was interested in civic improvement, and when New Hope Baptist Church was organized, the meetings were held in his home. He received a third class land grant in Sabine County." (p. 26).

However, a direct descendant, Elizabeth Pate, epate2@wildblue.net, cautions that it might be possible that Theophilus Harris and Alexander Harris were actually two different men, but likely related in some fashion. Theophilus was said by some to be named William Theophilus. Census records for the family of Alexander and Elizabeth consistently show his name simply as Alex, Alexander or A. Elizabeth also noted that the Alexander and Elizabeth, along with their children, can be found in Talladega County, Alabama at the time of both the 1840 and 1850 federal census enumerations, and that their youngest daughter, Nancy, is also shown on the 1860 Sabine County, Texas census as being born in Alabama ca 1854.

Please email strong@texas.net and/or epate2@wildblue.net if you have more information that could help us determine the exact nature of the relationship between Theophilius Harris and Alexander Harris.
