| 22902 | I14318 | Teal | Lucetta | Oct 1828 | Yes, date unknown | 0 | William Garrett remarried Lucetta Teal in December 1847, a little more after a year after his first wife died. Earlier, in March 1847, Clementine Holman, widow of Sanford Holman and daughter of William Garrett's brother-in-law Matthew Cartwright had died, leaving her two small children Anna and William. Within days after the marriage of William and Lucetta, William moved his two daughters back from the home they were boarding in to their plantation home, as well as taking in the two Holman children, again helping out relatives in time of need. Considerable credit should go to Lucetta. Married less than a month, she not only had a new husband but four small children. She and William went on to have seven more children of their own.

She was born on April 20, 1937, in Bennet, Nebraska, to Fred and Agnes (Brejcha) Thomas. Eilene attended public school in Bennet and graduated from Bennet High School with the class of 1954. She married Robert (Bob) Snyder in 1955. To this union, two children were born, David and Theresa (Terri). In 1967, she married Veryl Wehr and welcomed his son, Doug. The three kids were raised as one family. After Veryl's death, Eilene married Hugh Rath in 2007. They spent their latter years of life singing to each other, studying the Bible, and just loving one another! Eilene spent most of her adult career working for Reach Electronics in Lexington. She worked up the corporate ladder from secretary to eventually becoming CEO. During this time, her biggest accomplishment was applying for and having the company awarded the President's "E" Award for Exports from the US Government. She got to dine at the White House with then President Ronald Reagan. After Reach closed their doors, she moved on to work for Veetronix, a subsidiary of Reach. She would tell her kids, "I'm just a little ole' kid from a little ole' town with no college education. I just can't believe the opportunities I've had in my life!" She retired early when her husband, Veryl, became ill and needed around-the-clock care. Eilene loved spending time with her family, cooking, boating, being at the lake, and being with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She enjoyed needlework and doing plastic canvas. She gave many of the things she made away. In her younger years, you would find her sunbathing or boating at Johnson Lake, but as she aged, she liked watching Andy Griffith or Looney Tunes on tv, relaxing outside, and taking naps! She was a member of the Prince of Peace Catholic Church in Kearney. Those left to cherish her memory are her children, Doug Wehr of Kearney, David (Linda Kingham) Snyder of Fort Collins, Colorado, and Theresa (Terri) Casper of Lexington; step-children, Steve (Linda) Rath of Elwood, Nebraska and Mike (Amanda) Rath of Whitney, Nebraska; sister, Phyllis (Ralph) Steward of Bennet, Nebraska; grandchildren, Jason (Tiffany) Wehr, Christopher (Claudia) Wehr, Daniel (Felicia) Snyder, Alyssa (Ryan) Benson, Julie (Sean) Urban, Mary Beth (Clint) Stoll, Curt Casper, Becki (Tom) Hoffman, Eric Casper and Blake (Courtney Patterson) Casper; fifteen great-grandchildren with two more on the way, special friend Sue Berndt who cared for her so lovingly the last several years, as well as many extended family and friends.

| 22973 | I14097 | Thomas | Iredell Dickinson | Abt 1805 | Abt 1866 | 0 | Iredell Thomas was an early settler in the area, arriving in east Texas with his parents and siblings around 1828. He built the first store in the newly established town of San Augustine in 1833, and it became one of the largest mercantile businesses in town. A leading citizen of the area, Thomas amassed considerable wealth and land holdings as a businessman and planter. During the Texas Revolution he participated in the siege of Bexar and served as secretary of the San Augustine Committee of Vigilance and Safety. http://www.lib.utexas.edu/taro/drtsa/00047/drt-00047.html At the time of the 1860 census, brother-in-law Matthew Cartwright had real estate at $500,000 and personal property near $75,000, with only 13 slaves. Henson and Parmelee point out by way of contrast that brother-in-law and "planter" William Garrett estate, included 132 slaves, and that "Farmer-Merchant" Iredell D. Thomas had $166,000 in accumulated wealth, and 52 slaves. (Henson and Parmelee, "The Cartwrights of San Augustine," p. 191). In the book "Becoming Bourgeois: Merchant Culture in the South, 1820-1865" (Frank Byrne, The University Press of Kentucky, 2006, available on Google Books), the author writes that both of Iredell's sons "went on to serve in the Confederate army for the remainder of the war. Later both gained a measure of political notoriety in postwar Texas, James as a senatorial candidate in 1877 and Iredell (Jr.) as a leading organizer of the Ku Klux Klan in San Augustine." |

Floyd in STRICKLAND SCENE Vol 2, No 1 First Quarter 1981 (Strickland Research, Inc. 1661 Laurancae Way, Riverdale, GA 30296): "Alexander Thompson, Sr. was born 1739 and died 1815 in Madison County. He married Elizabeth Hodge (1745-1820). They are buried near Thompson's Mill, but no grave markers have been found by the writer. Alexander Thompson, Sr. was a Revolutionary War soldier. He received a scalp wound at the battle of King's Mountain which left a permanent scar. Alexander Thompson moved his family from Burke County, NC, to Wilkes County, GA in 1788. His sister and her husband, William McDaniel, also came to Wilkes County at this time. (Later he) moved to a place on the east side of South River across from his son's home (James Thompson, Sr.). This was in Elbert County at that time. They built substantial log houses for their families. Alexander Thompson, Sr. built a dam across South River at the shoals. A grist mill and a saw mill were constructed and were operated by water power. His will states that he also had cotton machines. In the book, OUR KIN by Manning, it is written that this was the first grist mill in north Georgia. Lumber was sawed at the mill from primeval timber to build the two story home of Alexander Thompson, Sr. He was on the first Superior Court Jury list after Madison County was formed in 1812. He was a member of the first Board of Road Commissioners from Danielsville District in 1812. He bought one of the lots at auction onthe Court House Square in Danielsville, which were sold for funds to build a courthouse. A plantation of 1900 acres was operated by the Thompson family. Several slaves were owned by family members. The mills and farms were operated for several generations by descendants of Alexander Thompson. From HISTORY OF GEORGIA AND GEORGIA'S PEOPLE by Geo. G. Smith: Listed on page 623 are names of revolutionary soldiers who recieved money and those who received land warrants. On page 640, Alexander Thompson and Solomon Strickland, father of Thompson's daughter-in-law Eunice are listed as receiving land warrants. Alexander received land in Washington Co, GA. He was wounded in the Battle of King's Mountain. From the book HISTORICAL SKETCHES, PRESBYTERIAN CHURCHES AND EARLY SETTLERS IN NORTHEAST GEORGIA by Rev. Groves Harrison Cartledge, compiled by Jessie Julia Mize and Virginia Louise Newton, Athens GA 1960 pps 72-76: Alexander Thompson and his two sons, James and William, were from Burke County, NC and settled on the South Fork of the Broad River about 1790. Alexander Thompson located on the place now owned and occupied by his grandson, Dr. Berry M. Thompson, and built the first mill on the place. He was a man then somewhat advanced in life. From HISTORY OF PIKE COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI, 1798-1876, by L.W. Conerly: The Thompson ancestors were from Scotland. Some of them settled in New York, North Carolina and Georgia. Alexander Thompson, Sr and son James, fought in the battle of King's Mountain. he was wounded in the head. A man named Griffith was hot and when Thompson stooped to raise him up a ball stuck him in the forehead, passed over his head under the scalp and came out at the back of his neck, leaving a scar were hair was prevented from growing. |

He was a most excellent man and was one of the first elders of the Presbyterian church of Danielsville before its removal to town, when it stood two miles south of town and was known as Pisgah church. About 1820, Alexander Thompson, Jr. sold his place near Danielsville to a Mr. Towns, and removed to Mississippi, and the subsequent history of him and his family is unknown to me.

Mr. Thompson was a native of Lauderdale County, Alabama, owner of A.L. Thompson Builders Supply and a member of Lexington United Methodist Church. Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, June 17, 2014, at Lexington United Methodist Church. Phil Springer, Kenny Baskin and Sam Hayes will be officiating. Burial will follow in Barnett Cemetery. Visitation will be from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday, June 16, 2014, at Lexington United Methodist Church. Survivors are his wife, Stella Martha Smith Thompson, Lexington, Alabama; one son, Mickey Thompson and wife, Regina, Lexington, Alabama; one daughter, Martha Lee Mitchell and husband, Kim, Lexington, Alabama; one sister-in-law, Nellerene Thompson, Lexington, Alabama;Six grandsons, Todd and Alanna Sullivan, Chase Sullivan, Heath Thompson, Logan Thompson, Jacob and Amber Mitchell, Lauren and Justin Bowen; two great-grandchildren, Katelyn Sullivan and Silas Mitchell; several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, J.M. "Mac" and Ollie Thompson, and two brothers, J.O. "Orbie" Thompson and W.M. "Billy" Thompson. Loretto Memorial Chapel is in charge of all arrangements. Affectionately referred to as Mr. Heavy, A.L. Thompson was a beloved resident of Lexington, Alabama, a community he deeply cherished. Many know him for the business he began in 1957, A.L. Thompson Builder's Supply, but the people of Lexington know he was much more than a local business owner. He was both the actual and honorary father, grandfather, and friend to all he met. Loving husband, faithful friend and Lexington High School's number one fan, Mr. Heavy represented the best of what Lexington had to offer. He assisted any in need that he met, supported his family to ensure their happiness and success, and gave out more than a few quarters to the young people lucky enough to get a hug from Heavy. "Don't spend it all in once place!" A.L. loved his church, helped start the first fire department of Lexington, and was a charter member of the Lexington Lion's Club. No matter who he met, they were treated as family. Although Mr. Heavy will not be selling lumber, frequenting LHS sporting events, or making us laugh with his witty one-liners, his impact on all of us will not pass. He has touched the community and forever improved it with the nondiscriminatory openness and love he shared with all. It is notable that Mr. Heavy passed away on Father's Day weekend, as his fatherly example is one that has blessed the community for decades and will continue to serve as a model toward which to strive. Pallbearers will include Terry Thompson, Rodney Jones, Billy Don Thompson, Tommy Springer, Sam Newton, Mark Hammond, Kyle Davis and Zach Bunnell (representing all past and present youth, so special to Mr. Heavy). Honorary pallbearers will include Ted Hammond, Steve Johnson, Tommy Smith, Jim Smith, Wilmer Springer, Rickey Littrell, Spencer Michael, Kevin Pettus, Bobby McGuire and the Fellowship Sunday School Class.

He married after the war, Sarah, the daughter of the widow Saye, whose husband had been killed in the Battle of Savannah, Ga, on the 9th of October 1779. James Thompson and his wife, Sarah, raised two sons and several daughters. Two of their daughters became wives of the two Carringtons, the sons of Rev.

From these two daughters of James Thompson are numerous Carringtons now residing in Madison County and elsewhere.
