6. | John Wesley Raby was born on 22 Feb 1873 in North Carolina; died on 23 Jun 1923 in Farmersville, Collin County, Texas. Notes:
It appears that he could possibly a namesake son of John Wesley Raby of Hickory, NC and Kare Serena Link. This is based on the Texas Death certificate of a Mrs. L. A. Jeans, born 1868 in North Carolina and died 1931 in Runnels County, Texas, a sister?
Not listed with this family at the time of the 1880 census, however. The Herrigton Ancestors tree at RootsWeb's World connect instead showed him as the son of N. N. and Magra Raby. However on a post-em to this tree, Doris Dickerson (dickersondoris@hotmail.com) writes that "John Wesley Rabys parents are: James Calvin Raby Aug. 28, 1832-May 10, 1898 (buried Carlton Cemetery) & Marjory Jane Hart Jan. 20, 1842-Jan. 28, 1917. I recently posted the lineage on Genforum RABY NO. 412 -You are welcome to use any info."
John married Gertrude Herrington on 4 Mar 1906 in Erath County, Texas. Gertrude (daughter of King Henry Herrington and Perlina Berry Wright) was born on 30 Jan 1881 in Hamilton County, Texas; died on 16 Feb 1976 in Stephenville, Erath County, Texas; was buried in East Memorial Cemetery, Stephenville, Erath County, Texas.

7. | Gertrude Herrington was born on 30 Jan 1881 in Hamilton County, Texas (daughter of King Henry Herrington and Perlina Berry Wright); died on 16 Feb 1976 in Stephenville, Erath County, Texas; was buried in East Memorial Cemetery, Stephenville, Erath County, Texas. Notes:
Melba Howell Colwell, a granddaughter, said that her grandmother was a remarkable woman. After her husband died young, leaving her widowed with four small children, she worked to support her family. She had attended college and was an educated and articulate woman, becoming postmaster in Carlton, Texas.
She was very independent and active throughout her life, walking six blocks to and from the grocery store to do her weekly shopping well into her 90's. Her doctor eventually insisted she take a cab.
Melba also remembers her as a wonderful cook.
