55. | George Augustus Collier, Sr. (11.William2, 1.George1) was born on 4 Jan 1896 in Many, Sabine Parish, Louisiana; died on 8 Nov 1936 in Harrison County, Texas; was buried in Greenwood Cemetery, Marshall, Harrison County, Texas. Notes:
From FindAGrave:
He was born in Louisiana, the son of William Theodore and Louiza Dexter West Collier. He married Gladys Mavor Winn on July 29, 1919.
He served as a naval fireman in World War I on the patrol boat Alcedo, the first American vessel sunk during the war.
He was on watch in the engine room under instructions as machinist mate. When the Alcedo, patroling off the coast of France, was torpedoed by a German submarine, he stopped the main engine and then raised the safety valve on the main engine by the hand gear, despite the fact that he was, by that time, standing in knee-deep water. The ship sank four minutes after being struck and George ended up in the water for 18 hours before he was rescued. He contracted tuburculosis, which ultimately lead to his death on November 8, 1936.

Mrs. Brown was the youngest of 11 children and the last surviving member. She was a retired health care giver as well as beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister and aunt. She was a member of Liberty Hill Baptist Church and had resided in San Augustine since 1964.
Mrs. Brown leaves a wonderful legacy of dedication to family, caring for everyone else, and her love of God. She enjoyed cooking, flowers, football and gospel music. Elaine was a beautiful, loving and giving person. Her radiating smile and presence will leave an irreplaceable void in our lives.
The family wishes to extend a special thanks to all of Mrs. Brown's nurses and caregivers at El Camino House in San Augustine. The love and compassion shown for their mother has been beyond reproach these past three years.
She is survived by her her son, Charles Dale Brown and wife, Wanda of Longview; daughter, Ann Brown Watson of Lufkin; daughter-in-law, Nancy Brown Metteauer and husband Richard of Nacogdoches; nine grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her husband of 61 years, Hoy Brown; sons, Arlis Ray Brown and Ricky Paul Brown, and son-in-law, Dr. William E. Watson.
