| 15041 | I21621 | McGrew | William J. | Abt 1844 | 28 Dec 1868 | 0 | "A Tragical Affair" in Old Montgomery, TX By Sue Moore William J. McGrew might have been a hero, but unfortunately he turned out to be a scalawag. Born in 1844 in either Claiborne or Copiah County, Mississippi, his roots were Old Alabama, but his destiny was an early grave in unholy ground in Texas. He joined the Porter's Guards, Co. H of the 4th Texas Infantry C.S.A., at the beginning of the Civil War in Montgomery, Texas, but was discharged in 1861 as being disabled. He was only seventeen at the time. He returned home to Montgomery in Montgomery County, Texas, to eventually become a lieutenant of the home guard, Co. K, 20th Texas Regiment, basically assigned to duty in Texas and the Indian Territory. Remaining in the Porter's Guards of Hood's famous Texas Brigade were the Cartwright brothers of Montgomery's Bear Bend. Unfortunately, E. W. "Ras" Cartwright became the first casualty of the company. As the group was being shipped to the Virginia battlefields, the train stopped at Holly Springs, Mississippi. "Ras," six feet six, borrowed a sword and was impersonating an officer in order to impress the Southern belles gathered on the platform. Evidently, he was enjoying himself so much that he was the last man to leap aboard the moving train. Somehow the sword caused him to trip and fall beneath the train, severing both legs and resulting in his death. The Cartwrights' bad fortune continued when brother James G. W. Cartwright was killed in the bloody Wilderness Campaign in Virginia, and brother Lemuel, the eldest, was wounded and lost an arm in the last major conflict before Appomattox. Their unit was devastated, and of the 143 men of Porter's Guards, Hood's Texas Brigade, only nine remained to surrender with Lee in April of 1865. However, the survivors of the Cartwright family would soon cross paths with the McGrew-Oliver clan. Following the war in 1867, William J. McGrew/McGraw was appointed county attorney during Reconstruction. His reputation among town folks was "a Republican appointee by day, a KKK by night, and a horse thief in between," according to Montgomery County Historical Society's Choir Invisible. Added to his list of misdeeds were the actions of John P. and Robert O. Oliver, his younger half brothers, teenagers who maddened the town folks by riding their horses into business establishments, shooting up the town, robbing and stealing. These boys had inherited a terrible legacy . Their father and William McGrew's stepfather, Egbert O. "Eg" Oliver, had been shot down in 1853 in old Montgomery when the boys were small children. From the Autauga Citizen, Prattville, Autauga County, Alabama, issue of Thursday, Oct. 20, 1853: "Death of an Outlaw: The Galveston Civilian has a letter dated Montgomery, Texas, October 1st, in which the writer says: A sad occurrence took place in our (town) between seven and eight o'clock. A man, well known in this section of the country, if not in others, named Eg Oliver, was shot from his horse on the public square. He had been arrested by the sheriff of which was for an assault with intent to kill a fellow named Lang in this county. It being the greatest charge on which the sheriff was authorizer to arrest him, he brought him to our town and delivered him to our sheriff, who committed him to jail in default of bail. About a week before court began here he broke out, and was then supposed left. But during court he was seen several times in this vicinity, and one night went to the house of our sheriff and called him up, but would not let him approach near enough to arrest him. Yesterday, while most of our citizens were at dinner, he rode into the square, galloped about it, and then rode off again, in defiance to all. He was pursued by the sheriff and several citizens but eluded the pursuit, and last night just at dark came into town again, threatening, as I am informed, to burn the jail. In attempting to arrest him for the purpose of recommitting him, he refused to surrender, and while in the act, as was supposed from his action (it was dark) of shooting upon those gathered around him, he was shot down, fell from his horse and died immediately. Who committed the deed, can never be known, as there was several shots fired at the same time. Thus perished a man, who, by his reckless and lawless course of life has been a horror to some, and respected by but few. May the memory of his many errors be buried with him. He has left a wife and two small children who have been compelled to flee from him, and seek protection under the roof of strangers." To make matters worse, William's real father had been an outlaw in his own right. William "Red Bill" McGrew and his cousin William "Black Bill" McGrew, in their early twenties, had killed two teenage boys in Sumter County, Alabama in 1835. In May, Alabama Governor John Gayle put out an $800 bounty for their apprehension. From the Commercial Register of Mobile: "Wanted - A Proclamation - On or about the first day of April of the present year [1835], William McGrew and William P. McGrew, in the county of Sumter [Alabama] murdered a couple of boys in the foulest manner, and under the most shocking and aggravated circumstances. The oldest of the lads was 16 or 17 years of age, and his little brother about 11 or 12. Their name was Kemp. They were peaceably at work, earning a subsistence for the indigent family to which they belonged, having given no offence or provocation whatsoever, when they were cruelly shot down at the same time, in a very wantonness of deliberate and cold blooded murder." Notices of the reward appeared in Mobile, New Orleans, and even in Texas. Soon another reward of three thousand dollars was raised by the citizens of Sumter and Marengo with this descriptions of culprits: " William P. McGrew ("Black Bill") is about twenty four years of age, hair a little dark, fair skin and blue eyes; mild, and retiring look when sober; six feet high. William McGrew,("Red Bill") the cousin of the other, is about 21 years old, red hair, fair skin, eyes between gray and blue, six feet high, down look and forbidding countenance. Both addicted to intemperance." This was published in Mobile, New Orleans and in the Brazoria, Texas Republican 24 October 1835 . "Black Bill" McGrew fled to Texas, to a place "about 125 miles from Nacogdoches" where bounty hunters from Alabama handed a letter, perhaps from some authority in Texas, to a man there by there by the name of Bowie with the expectation of getting his assistance in the taking of McGrew; but he being the friend of McGrew showed him the letter. The party in pursuit of McGrew immediately became alarmed and fled," according to the Voice of Sumter paper, Nov. 6, 1837. Eventually McGrew was betrayed by a man posing as a friend and turned over to the three bounty hunters. He was returned to Alabama where he escaped from the Mobile jail and was subsequently recaptured by the sheriff in Little Rock, AR. As he was being returned to Alabama, he created such a commotion on board the steamboat trying to escape that the Captain was obliged to put him and the sheriff off at Vicksburg. He was then shackled and the sheriff and a contingent of men delivered him for trial in Sumter County. Tried for murder, he received a $500 fine and one year for manslaughter since evidence proved the Kemp boys had readied guns in an ambush position. In addition, the Kemp boys' mother, who was the only eyewitness, told at least three different stories to different people, and did not fare well under cross-examination. Yet within the year, "Black Bill" died from his prison experience. Ironically, his name "William" had once been an honorable one, passed down from "Black Bill's" father, William McGrew, Territorial Representative, Colonel and commandant of the 15\super th\nosupersub Regiment Militia, Clarke County, Alabama, and a hero of the Creek War, killed by Indians at Bashi Creek in Alabama in 1813. "Bill" was only two years old when his father was ambushed, and his mother Nancy Hainsworth McGrew Phillips did not maintain such an honorable family reputation. In the Voice of Sumter , August 9, 1836,she was denounced by Regulators, as a "Jezebel" for harboring mixed Indians and borderers among her clan, and for aiding and abetting the Kemp-McGrew feud. The article by Louis C. Gaines called for her to be driven from the country, but she said she would "die on the grit." Evidently, she did choose to return to Texas, She had been listed in the failed Wavell's colony in Texas in 1830, causing her to remain in Alabama, but 1850 she was in Leon County, Texas, whether by choice or force is unknown. "Red Bill" McGrew was arrested in St. Stephens, Washington Co. AL. in June of 1836. He was arraigned, plead not guilty, but evidently was never tried, probably due to the inconsistencies brought out in his cousin's trial. The Voice of Sumter reported his court appearance: "Thursday being a fair day, our town was crowded to with persons anxious to witness the interesting trial of McGrew, which has received double interest from its notoriety. About 10 o'clock, the accused, a young man of fine personal appearance, was brought to the bar, and a great rush was made for the Court house to secure an opportunity of witnessing the event. But a small number of the multitude could crowd in the house, and the yard was thronged with spectators on tiptoe to listen to the trial." Evidently "Red Bill" could no longer remain in Alabama, so he sought a new home. Economic depression occurred in AL beginning with the Specie Circular, and by the early 1840's the cotton market was in shambles. The McGrews had once been very influential and wealthy planters. The patriarch of the family, John McGrew, had arrived on the Tombigbee River above Mobile in 1779, settling in what would become old Washington and Clarke counties. He had survived the English, the Spanish, and the Indians, carving out the largest holdings in the area. The chiefs of the Choctaw Nation had deeded him 1500 acres of the best river land because "in his kindness he had saved them from famine." He ran more than 1,000 cattle on his plantation. The infamous "Bills" were his grandsons. With the economic crash, Caroline McGrew , "Red Bill's" mother, moved her family to Claiborne County, Mississippi, after seeing her once-fine plantation sold for taxes after the death of her husband, John Jr., in 1842 in Texas. Bill and family evidently accompanied her at this time, eventually succumbing to the greener and fresher pastures of Texas in the 1840's. How "Red Bill" ended his days is uncertain, but McGrew cousins who lived in old Milam, Sabine Co TX, passed down a story of two men who arrived sometimes in the mid-to-late 1840's at their home. One was a McGrew cousin they called "Red," and he was wounded. The men had saddlebags full of gold which they were taking to Mississippi. During the night, "Red" crept out, buried the gold, and returned to bed to die before morning. The gold was never found, and he was buried north of the house. His mother's estate papers in 1853 in Claiborne County, MS, revealed that Bill was dead in Texas, survived by several children, including a son William - William J. McGrew who would come to no good end in Montgomery in a few short years at the hands of a group of vigilantes lead by the Cartwright family. Ironically, the Cartwrights and McGrews knew each other back in old Washington County, Alabama. Thomas Peter Cartwright, the patriarch of the family, had served on juries with the McGrews. He was a Methodist minister, and he and his wife Elizabeth Shaw, had eleven children, all were born there . Old John McGrew and his sons John Flood McGrew and Col. William McGrew were judges and representatives of that area to the Mississippi Territorial Legislature. Flood McGrew had been appointed by President John Adams as a member of the Territorial Council of five men who served as a virtual Senate of the Mississippi Territory. So the families certainly knew each other. When they moved to Texas, the Cartwrights also became influential in county government, with old Peter Cartwright becoming a Justice of the Peace in 1836 and Samuel Cartwright becoming sheriff of Montgomery County. For an unknown reason, Samuel resigned in 1866. Records do not show how or when William J. McGrew became the county attorney, but records indicate he was in office in 1867. About this time, according to Robin Montgomery's History of Montgomery County, Jesse James had camped at McGraw's crossing of the San Jacinto River for a few weeks. When the gang departed, they left behind Charles "Tex" Brown, a Yankee sympathizer, with whom Jesse had grown weary. "Tex," also believed to be a murderer and deserter from Wheeler's Cavalry, then fell in with the McGrew-Oliver clan. He was described by J. W. DeForest in Harper's Weekly, December, 1868, as "Twenty-three or twenty-five years of age, of medium height, slender, sinewy, and agile, with a dark complexion, piercing black eyes, and a jaw disfigured by a pistol shot, and an expression of brutal ferocity." What caused the shootout in late December of 1868 is not recorded in the county records, but two old citizens of Montgomery County, Mrs. W.C. Cameron and Mr. Buck Martin recounted the following, according to Narcissa Boulware of the Montgomery County Times: "When they (the gang) stole a fine horse from the Cartwrights and came into town to rob the stores and head out on 'a scout' for Mexico, a mob was formed at Bear Bend where the Gaffords, Cartwrights and others who came in after the men, lived." According to Montgomery's History, "Finally the citizenry had had enough, and led by the old family of Cartwrights from Bear Bend, they engaged in a bloody shootout with the outlaws in Montgomery which ranged over several blocks. At the end of the battle, all four desperadoes were dead and placed on Mrs. Oliver's porch." Sadly, Cameron and Martin, recounted the deaths of one of the boys, "Bob Oliver the youngest, was scarcely 16 years old at the time. When the shooting started, he ran to Mrs. Chilton's house. The mob followed, promised not to shoot him if he would come out. Someone killed him with a Bowie knife. He ran back into the house before he died. Here he died under a bed. The blood stains can still be seen on the floor." Another citizen and local judge, Nathaniel Hart Davis, recorded the bloody event on page 33 of his journal, "McGrew-Oliver Killing of Dec. 28, 1868 - On the 28th of December in the forenoon four men , Wm McGrew Esq. County Atty. for the last two years and his two half-brothers, John and Bob Oliver of this town and "Charles Brown" of Cokesbury, S. Carolina alias "Texas Brown" of whom an account is given in Harper's Monthly of Decr. 1868 were shot to death here (Montgomery) by some ten to 20 or thereabouts, men of this town and vicinity. If the people or society can be said to act in necessary self defense in the destruction of lawless desperados then I am of the option that this was such a case- a few others hereabouts may be nearly as bad as they-or some of them-one, May, made a narrow escape. McGrew for a young man was a moral disgrace to the legal profession as we as to the office he filled. I did not recommend him to the Police Court - the appointing tribunal. After I started for Miss. and Tenn. in Jany., I learned that he was in the crowd that took the Negro at court and that he and others had disguised themselves in the Post Office that night. On my return I found quite a change for the better in Montgomery. It is now rather an orderly quite place. And the general expression is that much good was done in the killing of Dec. 28. There may be some, for reasons best known to themselves who regret the death of McGrew. One white single female to whom he paid marked attention both before and since his marriage, manifests a fondness for his memory and a sorrow at his loss and continues to talk long after with a silly sentimentality-so says gossip. I heard not talk but believe it true - Miss E.A." The desperadoes were not buried in the consecrated ground of the old cemetery, but rather outside the gates in what would become Montgomery's New Cemetery. There is a CSA marker on Lt. William McGrew/McGraw's grave, but his young stepbrothers, buried near him lie unmarked. The only good thing said of William McGrew was recorded in the Houston Times, picked up by the Texas News, dateline January 23, 1869, "Tragical affair at Montgomery County. Death of William McGraw, county attorney. Mr. Brown of San Antonio and two brothers named Oliver.... William McGraw was in no way connected with the difficulty. He was trying to prevent the parties from using their pistols."

McGrew and Burrell Moody, 18, living with him. In view of this, and because Dr. William's son John H. named a son John Moody McGrew, Esther believes that the first wife of Dr. McGrew was a Moody. Nancy Lea Wilson Wright of Shreveport says that William McGrew's first wife was Marcina Moody Welch. He was listed as a merchant and planter in 1850. He must have become a doctor sometime before he moved to Refugio prior to 1860. Dr McGrew was one of the largest slaveholders in Refugio in the mid-1850s. Esther McGrew Hardin cites Hobart Huson, in his history REFUGIO, as noting these slaveholders were mainly planters and stock-farmers living along the San Antonio and Guadalupe Rivers, most whom brought their slaves with them. They were also, not surprisingly, some of the most active and leading secessionists in the county. Dr. William P. McGrew was chief justice during the period of 1862 to the end of the war. His court "took prompt and effective measures to guard against slave uprisings." They appointed patrols over the entire county, along with working to help support the families of the men who had gone to war. The Refugio list of Home Guard units included: Thomas M. Duke, Thomas M. Duke, Jr.; Henry McGrew; James McGrew; John McGrew; Dr. William P. McGrew; Thomas McGuill; Alfred S. Thurmond. After the end of the war, Dr. and Mrs. McGrew were said to have owned the original Mission Hotel, at the northwest corner of Alamo and Purisiama. Wynema McGrew adds that he was also Mayor of Refugio and a Methodist preacher. She shows that he died ca 1884 in Beeville, Texas. |

| 15057 | I1885 | McGuire | Cecil Elliott | 2 Jul 1896 | 18 Oct 1983 | 0 | This brief biography was excerpted from a longer biography written by Keith David McGuire, Jr. titled "Cecil Elliott McGuire 1896-1983" Cecil was born in Kansas, moving to with his parents and older brother to the Oklahoma Territory in December 1898. He attended rural schools in Dewey County, Oklahoma, attending through the eighth grade. He moved to New Mexico when he was 18 where he worked as a cowboy on the Drag A Ranch near the town of Datil. He met his future wife, Jean Pearl Phillips, in Magdalena, NM, when he attended her High School graduation ceremony with her brother, a friend of his. On May 17, 1918, he joined the United States Navy at El Paso, Texas, serving until his discharge at Mare Island, near San Francisco on January 28, 1919. During his enlistment, he went to an Electrical Technician School. He was robbed of his savings on the night of his discharge, while staying at a YMCA. He worked odd jobs in both Westwood, California, and also was sent train fare by his father and brother Elvis to join them at a farm near the border of Alabama and Tennessee to help them manage the farming operations. When he had enough saved, he returned to Datil, and went to work for Nations Land & Cattle Co, and continued with the improvements to the homestead he had acquired to joining the Navy. He married Jean Phillips on Christmas Day 1920. The couple relocated to Hurley, NW after Cecil was hired by Mr. Hermann, the husband of a close friend, and fellow teacher of Jean's. Cecil started out in the machine shop at the Nevada Copper Co. The McGuire and Hermann families later both relocated to Bisbee, AZ to work for the Copper Queen Mine Company. Cecil later was promoted to the Copper Queen Smelter, a branch of the Phelps Dodge Corporation in Douglas, Arizona. He also continued his education via correspondence courses, night school, and on the job training, learning the engineering skills necessary to register as a Civil Engineer (Arizona, 1938), and Civil Engineer/Water Rights Surveyor (Nevada, 1958). During his engineering training, in the early to mid-1930's, he worked as a field engineer during the construction of the Hoover Dam. He also worked at the Bureau of Public Roads in Phoenix, supplementing his income by staying rent free in the citrus farm of his supervisor, working evenings and weekends to plow, irrigate, pick fruit, and operate the smudge pots to keep the fruit from freezing. He also did freelance work in surveying and mapping for ranchers and for the city of Douglas. In the 1940's Cecil and his younger brother Keith McGuire Sr collaborated on designing and building a prototype twin counter rotating rotor helicopter design. Keith worked on the fabrication of some of the components. After Keith's untimely death in 1948, Cecil abandoned the project. Cecil took a train from Arizona to Oklahoma to attend Keith's funeral. He later told Keith Jr that he completed the last leg of his long train trip by riding the Caboose of a freight train from Elk City to Camargo, to arrive sooner than he would have had a waited for the scheduled passenger train run. Cecil was an avid hunter and fisher. He and his middle daughter, Ida Mae, took an annual fishing trip every summer, the final one taking place in 1983, shortly before his death. They had to cancel the 1982 trip after Cecil was struck by a car riding his bicycle and was briefly hospitalized. He and his wife Jane were life members of the Hurley New Mexico branch of the Masons and Eastern Stars. |

| 15062 | I1886 | McGuire | Elvis Henry | 4 Feb 1901 | Dec 1994 | 0 | This brief biography was excerpted from a longer biography written by Keith David McGuire, Jr. As was true of his siblings, Elvis grew up primarily in Dewey County, OK, with the exception of the year the family spent on a farm in Alexandria, LA. He also worked with his father in 1918 on a farm in Tennessee. While growing up, he attended rural school in Oklahoma, and in addition to helping on his parents, farm, he had two part time jobs. When he was ten, he carried mail three times a week from the train depot to the post office, a four-mile round trip, for which he received 50 cents per trip. When he was 16, he worked for the railroad itself as a section hand. In 1920, Elvis and Percy moved to Northwest Arizona, working as a surveyor on the construction of state highway #95, between Toprock and Oatman. In 1923, he moved to Hurley, New Mexico, travelling on top of a passenger train. In Hurley, he worked for the Chino Copper Company. He also fought, and won, his first professional boxing match here. A year later Elvis moved to Illinois, in a Studebaker Touring Car that he had rebuilt, bringing his Mother and sisters Ellen and Hildred with him. His nephew Keith heard that Elvis made the move to get away from the higher elevations in New Mexico, which he thought contributed to blood pressure issues. His great nephew Tom was instead told by Elvis that the water in New Mexico was so bad, the only liquid he consumed by Coca-Cola, and that the massive amounts of cola that he consumed led to stomach issues. During his stay in Illinois, he worked at a Farm Implement Factory, alongside his younger brother Keith. In the winter of 1925-1926 Elvis also worked as a street-car conductor in Chicago. In November 1926, Elvis moved to Brownsville, Alabama and obtained employment at Brownsville Lumber, working as a mechanic in the Creosote Plant. His younger brother Keith followed him, working at the same plant. While in Alabama, Elvis continued pursuing his career as a boxer, and was in five fights, winning four of them. His last fight was on October 31, 1927, against Joe Lousier of Florida. He won this on a technical knock-out in the eighth round, breaking a bone in his left hand during the fight, and finishing the fight one handed. After this fight, he retired from boxing, at the urging of his wife Norma. While living in Cottondale, they farmed. In the 1940's, they traded their farm in Cottondale for a home in Tuscaloosa, on 1706 Forest Lake Avenue. Elvis was employed as a mechanic by Anders Studebaker Company, advancing to shop foreman before the Agency closed in the mid 1950's. During World War II, he maintained Stearman PT-17's military trainers at the Tuscaloosa airport. He later enlisted United State Seabees (1949-1965), working as a Gasoline Engine Repairman, and attaining the rank of Chief Petty Officer. Elvis continued to work as a shop foreman for various civilian firms, retiring at the age of 70. He was in an automobile accident in November 1989, and was no longer able to care for himself due to the injuries he received. He was a resident of the Park Manor Nursing Home in Morthport, Alabama until his death in 1994. Obituary (transcribed from undated, unreferenced newspaper clip) E. H. McGuire E.H.

| 15070 | I175 | McGuire | Henry David | 19 Jan 1868 | 3 Feb 1944 | 0 | This brief biography of Henry David McGuire was excerpted from a longer biography written by Keith David McGuire, Jr. titled "Henry David McGuire 1868-1944" Henry was an apprentice for a stone mason in Lexington, Alabama, moving to Kansas at the age of sixteen when the stone mason relocated his business operation there. It was in Kansas that Henry learned the trades of Wagon/Carriage Builder and Blacksmith, during his four year apprenticeship with a Master Craftsman. After his apprenticeship, he started his own blacksmith shop: initially in Lawrence, Kansas, relocating to Olivet, Kansas, and then to Osage City, Kansas. This is where he met Anna Mary "Mamie" Kuykendall. Their first two children were born in Osage City, while their four youngest were born at the Red Creek Farm in western Dewey County, Oklahoma. The farm in Red Creek was 160 acres, located In Dewey County three miles west of Trail on Red Creek which drained into the South Canadian River located two miles north of the homestead. The patent to the land was obtained 22 May 1906. The family originally lived in a two room half dugout with mortar walls and a wood shingled roof that had been built into a hillside to provide ten foot high back walls with twelve foot wide rooms. Henry and two neighbors assisted each other in building these dugouts for each family. While they were being built, the families lived in tents and covered wagons. Later the family moved in a wood frame farmhouse constructed on the property. They briefly moved to Trail were Henry worked as a blacksmith, and then back to the farm. The young family moved from the farm to the city of Trail, which had been relocated two miles northwest to have a railroad depot, after the Wichita Falls & Northwest Railroad branch line was completed. Here Henry again worked as a blacksmith. In 1912 they purchased property in Block 15 located on the south side of Broadway between 1rst and Main streets. Here they built a brick building to house the blacksmith shop, public bath facilities, and their living quarters. When the economy of Trail could no longer support the family, Henry and his sons travelled throughout the country to find work. In the summer of 1913, Henry and his oldest son Percy even spent three months working in Canada, operating a clear water pump for a coal mine on the Mackenzie River. Henry sold his original homestead to David Hale on 13 February 1915, but retained the building that housed his shop and living quarters in Trail. During the next several years, Henry farmed in central Louisiana, worked as a blacksmith in Kansas, worked in the oil fields of Oklahoma, and farmed in southern Tennessee, near Florence, Alabama. Mamie remained in Trail with the younger children during most of theses sojurns. Older sons Elvis and Cecil helped their father with the Tennessee farm for awhile. In 1921, Henry returned home to Trail. Soon afterwords, Henry and Mamie divorced. Henry moved to Chicago to work, and Mamie and her daughters lived for a time with her son Percy and then with son Elvis. Later she and the children relocated to Illinois as well. Here she and Henry were remarried in 1926. The family moved back briefly to Alabama, then to nevada, and finally returned to Oklahoma, where they settled in Camargo, on the north side of the South Canadian River on State Highway 34. Here they operated a restaurant that was named the "Nickle Inn," named for the price of the individual servings or hamburgers, chili, and pie. After Mamie's death, Henry remarried and returned to Trail, to the building that had served as his blacksmith workshop and home years before. Henry's death certificate showed his parents as Frederick H. McGuire, born in Virginia (sic) and Centhy Porter, born in Alabama. In the space for cause of death, the following was written: "This man was found dead at his home about 3 days after his death. Supposedly died of internal hemmorrage after violent exertion." The physician who signed the certificate was W.E. Saba, M.D. of Leedy, Oklahoma. The informant was Keith McGuire of Camargo Oklahoma. Burial was at Leedy as well. OBITUARY Henry David McGuire, son of Frederick Hugh and Cinthey Elizabeth McGuire, was born Jan 19, 1868 at Lexington, Alabama, and died February 3, 1944 at his home in Trail, Oklahoma. Mr. McGuire was united in marriage to Anna Mary Kuykendall of Osage City, Kansas in 1893, who preceded him in death in 1934. Mr. McGuire was remarried in 1940 to Mrs. Lona Chill of Camargo.

| 15077 | I173 | McGuire | Keith David | 7 May 1905 | 4 Jan 1948 | 0 | Keith grew up in Trail, Oklahoma, across the river from Camargo. His family moved often while he was growing up He worked as a blacksmith and welder. At the time of the 1930 Federal census, he was a Lodger in the home of Eulalie Fayard in Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi. He was shown as Male, Single, born in Oklahoma with his parents born in Alabama and Kansas. Occupation was that of a Telephone Lineman. (Source Citation: Bay Saint Louis, Hancock, Mississippi; Roll: 1146; Page: 1A; Enumeration District: 0005; Image: 125.0; FHL microfilm: 2340881.) Keith owned a 1940 Aeronca TL Trainer two place tandem seat air plane, in which he died after a crash on January 4, 1948. He had been assisting some local ranchers who were eradicating coyotes in the area. His son, Keith McGuire, Jr. recalls that his father "occasionally, and not for hire, would fly in areas where local farmers/ranchers that he knew were hunting Coyotes, and would serve as a spotter for those on the ground." Keith Jr was riding with hi s Dad in the plane that day until shortly before his Dad's death, which was just after noon, 12 PM. Coyote Hunting using airplanes were accomplished by two means at that time. One was where a second person riding with the pilot would shoot coyotes while in the air from the airplane. The other was where Ranchers on horses using Greyhound Dogs to corner the coyotes would sometimes be assisted by a pilot in a plane serving as a spotter to designate where coyotes were by a maneuver , usually wagging the planes wings in flight when they flew over an area where they saw coyotes. Keith reported that his father did this strictly for the sport, and not for hire. There was not enough room in the church for all the mourners at his funeral , which was typical for all funerals in small towns in that time era. Kenneth Carpenter was one the eight honorary pallbearers at Keith's funeral, there being six active pallbearers. Josephine and Kenneth were married some eight years after the funeral. The funeral director was Mr. Shaw of Vici, Oklahoma. |

Growing up in Camargo, he worked with his father, who was a welder and blacksmith. Keith was just 16 when his father-an experienced pilot-died in a plane crash in 1948. That summer, Keith, his mother and sister Pat moved to Tuscaloosa, Alabama. They stayed there for the summer with the family of his Uncle, Elvis McGuire. While there, his mother took typing and shorthand classes to gain skills to help support her family. They later moved back to Camargo. In May 1950, Keith graduated from Camargo High School. His graduating class included only 21 students, including his former high school girlfriend, Pearl Stephenson, senior class secretary, who was listed on the photo as Pearl Stephenson-Miller. Another classmate was Bob Moore, who Keith recalled that he met on their first day of first grade, was one of his closest friends throughout school, and one of only 4 classmates that attended school in Camargo with Keith for all 12 years. Bob later married a younger classmate, Mary Ann Hunt. Mary Ann was a lifelong friend of Keith's younger sister Pat, she and Pat were also in classes together for 12 years, and remained close friends throughout their adult lifes. After graduating High School, Keith enlisted in the United States Air Force, in part to help support his mother and sister, as well as to build up funds for his own college education. He served at various bases in four states and was also stationed in Japan. After he completed his military service, he enrolled at the University of Oklahoma. He was awarded a Bachelor of Science in Petroleum Engineering. He married Daisy Marie Newnam on September 14, 1957, in Chandler, Oklahoma, a year prior to his graduation. The first home he and Daisy shared was a four room apartment that she had been living in prior to their marriage, the lower unit of a garage apartment located at 2324 1/2 NW 33rd in Oklahoma City. Keith was a lifelong fan of the Oklahoma Sooner football team. He spent his working career in the U.S. Civil Service as a Mechanical Engineer, moving his family throughout the southwest in service of his country. An article published in the "Prarie Pilot" Big Spring, Texas (Vol. X-No.38, Friday, January 16, 1970), noted "The establishment of a new position within Civil Engineering Division has resulted in one promotion, and has brought a new face to Webb. Stepping into the new post of associate base civil engineer is Bill G. Mims, lifetime resident of Big Spring and formerly chief of CE's engineering and construction branch. Replacing Mr. Mims in that job is Keith McGuire, formerly of Clinton-Sherman AFB, Okla.........(the) new Engineer, Mr. McGuire, a native of Oklahoma, looks forward to liking this area and the friendly people Having come from a similar position at Clinton-Sherman, he sees no particular problem in adjusting to the job at Webb. In his position, he is responsible for development of engineering data to support the base military construction and maintenance programs, design work, master planning, construction inspection, and contract development. The only problem he anticipates would be in the transation from Strategy Air Command to ATC. Also a professional engineer, Mr. McGuire is registered in Oklahoma, having earned the bachelor of science degree in petroleum engineering from the University of Oklahoma. He and his wife, Daisy have three children, Keith, 10, Scott, 8, and Julia, 6" (photo of Bill Mims and Keith McGuire was provided by A1C Bob Fainter, Air Force Photo). Seven years later, an article in the "The McANAD News," McAlester Oklahoma, Vol. 31, No. 16, dated 26 August 1977 (published by the U.S. Naval Ammunition Depot) noted that Keith recently replaced Mr. Tom Stark as Engineering Resources Management Division Chief, coming from Webb AFB, Big Spring, Texas, where he had held the position of Engineering and Construction Management Branch Chief. The article noted that Keith and Daisy had one son enrolled at the University of Texas, majoring in Music, and two children enrolled in McAlester High School in McAlester. Keith was also an enthusiastic family genealogist and corresponded with cousins about family for many years, and spent much time researching their mutual ancestors. Keith spent his retirement years in Bailey, Colorado, where he loved spending time outdoors with his dogs. Obituary BAILEY, COLORADO - Keith D.

| 15079 | I23991 | McGuire | Lawrence | Abt 1794 | 16 Sep 1853 | 0 | The State of TEXAS, County of Sabine Statement of Mrs. Sarah A. Harvey, made at her home in Sabine County, TEXAS on the 24 day of Jan.A. D. 1913. My name is Sarah A. Harvey. I was born on the 16th day of January A.D. 1826, near the town of Florence, in the State of Alabama. I am the daughter of Jesse T.Scruggs and Susan Thornton Scruggs. My father and mother moved from the State of Alabama, to Sabine County, Texas, about the year 1836, and settled when we first came to Texas, near Milam, and resided there about one year. We then moved to Hamilton on the Sabine River, and lived there not quite one year, and moved fron there and settled on the McAdams tract or land in Sabine county, and lived there a great many years. I was married while living on that tract of land to Robert Harvey on August, 10th 1854, and after my marriage; my husband and I moved to the place I now reside on, where I have lived ever since then, and this place I now reside is about two and one half miles from the John McAdams tract of land. I knew Lawrence McGuire and his family for many years. When my father and mother came to Texas about 1836, Lawrence McGuire, and his family came with them, and all settled in Sabine County. Hambleton McGuire, so I was told by Lawrence McGuire, came to Texas about one year before we did, and we found him in Sabine County when we arrived there. Lawrence McGuire's family when we moved to Texas consisted of his wife, a son named Hambleton B. McGuire, and two daughters: one named Mary, the other named Arabella. Lawrence McGuire was married one time, and by his said wife he had the above children. My mother was Susan Thornton Scruggs, died after we came to Texas, and my father, Jesse T.Scruggs, married Mary McGuire one of the two sisters of Hambleton McGuire. My husband, Robert Harvey, had been married once before I married him, and his first wife was Arabella McGuire, a sister of Hambleton McGuire, and a daughter of Lawrence McGuire, as above stated. Lawrence McGuire died in Sabine County, Texas, about year A.D. 1855, and he was buried in the McGuire burial ground on the John McAdams survey in Sabine County.; his first wife died prior to his death, and is buried in the same burial ground near him. At the time of his death, Lawrence McGurie left surviving him; his son, Hambleton B. NcGuire, who was a practicing physician; and his daughter Mary McGuire, who married my father; and the children of Arabella, who was my husbands first wife, who was the daughter of Lawrence McGuire as above stated. Hy husband, Robert Harvey, as the guardian of his children by Arabella McGuire, his first wife. Lawrence McGuire, at the time of his death was the Owner of a one-half interest in a tract of about twelve hundred and eighty acres (128O), a part of the John McAdams survey, in Sabine County, which he purchased, together with his son, Hambleton McGuire; from John McAdams about the year 1848. He also owned some negroes, and had some money. After his death, a division was made of his estate among his heirs, and Hambleton McGuire was given as his part of the estate the interest owned by Lawrence McGuire in the John McAdams survey in Sabine County, Texas; Mary Scruggs, nee McGuire, my step-mother, received two negroes as her portion of the estate, and the children of Arabella Harvey, nee McGuire, received cash as their portion of the estate, and this money was paid to my husband Robert Harvey, who was guardian of said children, and their father. Hambleton McGuire after he received as his portion of the estate owned by his father in the John McAdams survey, sold the land about the year 1861 to J. H. Burroughs. Hambleton B. McGuire was frequently at our house, and was there just prior to the time he sold his land to J.M. Burroughs, and was talking with my father, and he stated to him that he was going to sell the land to said Burroughs. He was there a short while after this, and stated that he had sold all the John McAdams survey to J. M. Borroughs, and that he had also sold said Borroughs a Negro woman named Hannah. J. M. Burroughs at that time was living on a tract of land adjoining the John McAdams survey, and after the purchase of the John McAdams tract from Hambleton McGuire, as stated above, he cultivated a large portion of the said McAdams survey, and had it cultivated for about forty years, and at all times claimed it as his own. J.M. Burroughs was an attorney at law, and Was ummarried. This statement is made in the prescence of T. G. Minton, who signs my name hereto at my request for the reason that on account of extreme age, 1 am unable to write, and also in the presence of Docia Harvey, wife of Perkins Harvey, and in the presence of W.C.Ramsey.

The email attachment was a word document titled BOBBYEMC@earthlink.net) Irene also forwarded to me a transcription of the Jesse Thomas Scruggs family Bible. The bible was transcribed in April, 1970 by Blanche Toole. This transcription was forwarded to Irene by Leatha Betts, a descendant of Manuel Walton Loving. Manuel Loving was the father of Jesse Thomas Scruggs third wife, Mary Ann Loving. In this transcription, it is also shown that Dr. L. McGuire has a son who died prior to the move to Texas. His listing in the Death section of the Bible follows: "James M. McGuire, son of Dr. L. McGuire departed this life on the 9th day of April at his residence in Haywood Co. Tenn. A.D. 1839." |

| 15085 | I11 | McGuire | Patricia Marion | 30 Oct 1933 | 16 Mar 2018 | 0 | Pat grew up in the small town of Camargo, Oklahoma. Even though her mother was Catholic, she and her brother attended Sunday school at the First Christian Church since there was no Catholic Church in town. She remembers spending some time one summer, along with her brother, living with a priest and his mother in a nearby town learning enough catechism to receive her first communion. Pat and Charles raised their children in the Catholic church, and most attended parochial schools, at least in elementary school. They respected their childrens views, however, and allowed those who did not want to go through confirmation to make that choice. After their children were grown, they grew disenchanted with religion, and embraced a humanist philosophy. She was called Patsy by her parents when she was young. and Pat as an adult. When her eldest grandson, Charles Joseph, was first beginning to talk, in 1983, he had trouble saying the word "Grandma".....instead calling Pat by the name "Munga." All her grandchildren and the rest of her family began to use that name as well, and she was known as Munga to her family and loved ones for the next 35 years. Obituary Patricia "Pat" Marion McGuire Strong, a resident of Edinburg, Texas for over 40 years, was born on October 30, 1933 in Camargo, Oklahoma, a small farming and ranching community near the Oklahoma panhandle. She was an excellent student with many friends, active in 4-H, and played on her high school basketball team. She died March 16, 2018 in her home, surrounded by people she loved. When Pat was 14, her beloved father, Keith David McGuire, Sr., an experienced pilot, died when the two-seat airplane he was piloting crashed. Pat was very proud of her mother, Josephine Marguerite (Morlas) McGuire, a native of New Orleans, who rose to the formidable challenge of raising and educating Pat and her elder brother Keith as a single parent during the 1940's. Even though Josephine had not worked outside the home before, it became necessary after her husband's death. Being widowed at age 42, she had only the proceeds from the sale of her husband's welding shop, and a small inheritance from her mother, to help support her family. Josephine and her children moved to Tuscaloosa, Alabama and lived briefly with Pat's Uncle Elvis McGuire, allowing Josephine to take typing and shorthand courses to prepare herself to enter the workforce. When she finished with her coursework, they moved back to Camargo and she held several different jobs over the years, many simultaneously: a newspaper clerk and social columnist, a department store saleslady, a census enumerator, and most often was employed as a waitress at restaurants and coffee shops. The main motivation for returning to Camargo was to allow Pat, and her brother Keith to complete High School in their home town. Pat graduated in 1951 as the salutatorian of her class. After her graduation, Pat and her mother moved to Weatherford, Oklahoma, where Pat enrolled in Southwestern State College with her mother as her roommate. Both she and her mother worked while Pat was in college to cover their daily needs, as well as the cost of college attendance. Her brother Keith, an U.S. Air Force enlistee, also contributed to their support. Pat graduated Magna Cum Laude with her Bachelor of Science in Education in 1954. From 1954 to 1956 Pat taught High School in Mooreland, Oklahoma, where she and her mother continued to share a home. After her mother remarried Kenneth Carpenter (a friend and pallbearer at her late husband's funeral), Pat pursued and earned a Master of Science degree in Business Education from Oklahoma State University. There she met, at a Newman Club dance, fellow student and her future husband, Charles Richard Strong of Duncan, Oklahoma, and citizen of the Chickasaw Nation. It was love at first kiss! They married in Stillwater on May 25, 1957. Pat graduated from O.S.U. in May 1958, two months prior to the birth of her eldest child. Over the first ten years of their marriage, Pat and Charles had seven children, (in order of birth), Thomas Anthony, Mary Patricia, John David, Laura Ann, Karl Joseph, Paul Stephen and Anne Marie. They moved even more times than they had children. They lived and worked in Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Alabama, Mississippi and Texas, while Charles taught at various colleges while completing his Ph.D. in Business Management at the University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa. While busy raising her large family, Pat worked part time as an instructor in the Business Education Department at Mississippi State College for Women and assisted as proofreader and typist for her husband's doctoral dissertation. In May 1973, Charles, who was also a practicing C.P.A., was offered a position in the Accounting Department at Pan American University in Edinburg. When her youngest daughter began school, Pat began to teach full time in McAllen, Texas, instructing her students in the subjects of English, Typing, and Shorthand. She taught 20 years before her retirement in 1994. Pat is preceded in death by both parents, her stepfather, and four sisters-in-law: Daisy Newnam McGuire, Theresa Strong Rutledge, Betty Wehunt Strong, and Caroline Strong Brasher. She is survived by her husband of over sixty years, Charles; four sons Tom (Melinda)-San Antonio, John (Isabel)-McAllen, Karl (Deirdre)-Boerne, Paul (Sherry)-Houston; three daughters, Laura (Ken Solomon)-Helotes, Mary Pat and Annie, both of Edinburg; twelve grandchildren, Charles Joseph (Pratistha) Strong-Jefferson City, MO.; J.H.T.

She was known for her love of her family, which is her proudest accomplishment, her quick wit, and her quiet intelligence. She was an ardent fan of the San Antonio Spurs. She adhered to and demonstrated the Humanist philosophy through her constant empathy and kindness to others, regardless of who a person might be. She was also very proud that three of her children, one daughter-in-law, and four grandchildren have thus far followed her and her husband into the profession of teaching. The family wishes especially thank Pat's special caretakers (Mary Pat Strong, Veronica Rosales, and Lilliana Herrera) for all they have done. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial contributions be made to the Food Bank of the Rio Grande Valley, P.O. Box 6251, McAllen, TX 78502; Comfort House Services, 617 Dallas Ave, McAllen, TX 78501; or the Rio Grande, or your local, Habitat for Humanity. Cremation will be handled by Memorial Funeral Home, Edinburg. Interment will be in the McGuire family plot at the Camargo (Westside) Cemetery, where her family will gather this summer to share memories and oversee her interment.

"My sincere sympathy is extended to Patricia's family. I fondly remember her as Ms. McGuire and as faculty sponsor of my 1955 MHS Senior class. My class was honored when she attended our 50th reunion. She inspired all of us to achieve beyond our capabilities and was always interested in helping us make good decisions. Speaking for the rest of my surviving class of '55 and as their President, we will all miss her and thank her family for allowing us the privilege of having time with this great person.." |

Their analysis showed the following Haplogroup assignment, along with the following differences from the Cambridge Reference Sequence. HVR1 Haplogroup K HVR1 differences from CRS 16224C 16519C The mitochondrial super-haplogroup U encompasses haplogroups U1-U7 and haplogroup K. Haplogroup K is found through Europe, and contains multiple closely related lineages indicating a recent population expansion. The origin of haplogroup K dates to approximately 16,000 years ago, and it has been suggested that individuals with this haplogroup took part in the pre-Neolithic expansion following the Last Glacial Maximum. William Hurst, on his Haplogroup K Website, writes that "Katrine," the founding mother of mitochondrial DNA haplogroup K, was one of the "Seven Daughters of Eve" as listed in the 2001 book of that title by Bryan Sykes. A lot of happened since 2001, but the book is still valuable. Katrine lived about 16,000 years ago. Perhaps the oldest known K descendant was Oetzi the Iceman whose frozen body was discovered in the Alps in 1991. Estimated at 5000 years old, the Iceman proved to have the basic mutations for a K: 16224C and 16320C. Every K is a cousin of Oetzi. |

Percy was the eldest child of Henry and Mamie McGuire, born in Kansas. His family then moved, in December 1898, to western Oklahoma. When he was 19 he travelled with his father in work in Canada on a clear water pump on the Mackenzie River, to furnish water for a coal mine. When an ice jam broke loose and destroyed the pump they employment was terminated, and they returns to Oklahoma. Percy later moved to Hurley, New Mexico, where worked for a mining company. On 8 March 1918, Percy enlisted in the Navy in El Paso, using the name Robert Henry McGuire, and the birthdate 8 January 1897, for "business and legal reasons." He was on active duty until his discharge on 31 January 1919, at which time he returned to Oklahoma. He was a Quartermaster Second Class, and discharged from the U.S. Naval Training Camp in San Diego, California, due to a Physical Disability, not specified. In 1921, he married Ruby Weber in Guthrie, OK, and they had two daughters. He and his family, along with his younger brother Keith Sr, moved to Illinois for work. He later followed jobs across the country during the mid 1920s to the early 1930s, working in California, Kansas, Missouri, Idaho and Nevada. One of his jobs was working on the Boulder Dam, now known as the Hoover Dam. He was also a guide for the Park Service at the dam site. He returned to Oklahoma, where he lived and worked in various cities for the remainder of his life, expect for a brief time in Corpus Christi, TX (1940-1941). He was diagnosed with tuberculosis in the mid 1930s, receiving treatments at the Veterans Administration in both Clinton and Sulphur, OK. Keith Jr recall's that Percy visited their family in Camargo, in the early 1940s, entertaining he and his sister Pat with card tricks. He refused to sleep in their home, however, saying it would be safer for their family if he slept in the camper shell on the back of his truck, as he did not want to expose them to tuberculosis.

Mahan This book is actually entitled "Assessment of Taxes on Real Estate and Personal Property In the County of Lauderdale for the Year 1866," and measures 17 inches by 23 inches CLOSED. It is in very bad shape. The front cover is missing, and so are some of the pages. It is also possible that some of the precincts are missing. The pages are not numbered, so it was not possible to determine if this were the case. The first two pages are torn, but there are no names on them. There are 83 columns, stretching across two sheets. Personal property is divided into several categories, which included libraries over $300; vehicles not exclusively used for agricultural purposes; jewelry plate and silverware; pianos and other musical instruments. Each Beat or Precinct is in alpha order. The A through G names in the Florence Beat are missing. And any "H" names, prior to Mrs. H. G. Hardy are missing. The remaining Beats or precincts that are listed appear to be complete. The initials "F. M." following a name appear to stand for Free Man. The four columns presented here are: (1) - Lands, Number of acres (2) - Town Properties, Number of lots (3) - Total tax on Real Estate (4) - Number of Male Inhabitants between 18 and 50 years of age at $2.00 tax per number. 1234 McGuire, John W. 188 5.20 1 www.rootsweb.com/~allaude/1866tax-lexington.htm |
