24512 I277  Wilson  Margaret Cecily "Maggie"  9 Aug 1927  22 Jan 2009  0  Margaret Cecily Bramhall

MARGARET CECILY BRAMHALL passed away 1/22/09. She was born in Sale Cheshire, England on Aug. 9, 1927, and was preceded in death by her husband of 49 years Eugene Bramhall. She is survived by 6 children: Eileen Hav?, Teresa Oberholtzer, Ann Bramhall, James Bramhall, Elizabeth Childres & William Bramhall, their spouses, 8 grandchildren & 5 great-grandchildren. The Memorial service will be held at St Paul's United Methodist Church on 1/26/09 at 1:00. We will always love you Maggie.

(Published in the Houston Chronicle on 1/25/2009)

Margaret Cecily Wilson Bramhall was born Aug. 9, 1927 in Sale Chesire, England. She died Jan. 22, 2009 here in Houston. She was preceded in death by her husband of 49 years Eugene Andrew Bramhall. She is survived by her 6 children Eileen, Teresa, Ann, Jim, Liz, and Billy; 8 grandchildren of whom the 4 in Houston are able to be here: Ryan and Haley Bramhall, and William and Alex Childres; 5 great-grandchildren; 2 honorary granddaughters Ashley Childres Worley and Amber Childres, her brother Bernard, and many friends lots of whom are here.

By all accounts and any criteria, Maggie was a tremendous person. All who knew her loved her and she loved them. While she was a proper, and often stubborn, English lady, she was also lively and memorable. 100 lbs. soaking wet, she commanded the attention and respect and engendered the love of those she encountered.

She was known for her sometimes cryptic English expressions which are family lore. "I'm not as green as I am cabbage looking" was one of them. Another was "I might as well as wish I hadda done." "Bob's your uncle" and "laughing turns to crying" were yet others. One that has stuck with most everyone is "show me your friend, and I'll tell you what you are" which is good advice at any age.

Maggie and Gene and their expanding brood lived all over the world as Gene's work took them to far-flung places. During an economic downturn when his job was not in demand, Maggie went to work and helped keep the family together. She was not afraid of hard tasks and instilled in her children that same sense - people who keep clean houses and iron all clothes. A child of the depression, she did not believe in frivolous or virtually any spending. She was always for putting up and setting aside "the best" and saving it for another day.

Maggie was a good sport. She crawled through the doggie door at Liz and Scott's on a dare, a feat which fortunately did not land the Childreses in trouble with Adult Protective Services. She also was notorious for taking out her teeth and losing them in inopportune spots, like napkins, pockets and dogs' mouths. And while she never wore pants, they did get her in a pair of exercise shorts which she wore long enough to be photographed. Denise talked of a time that Maggie went to Ashley's teenaged birthday party and rode in a limousine which blared loud contemporary music. When Denise apologized to Maggie for the din, Maggie said she'd learned early on that she could endure anything for a short period of time and she might as well be kind and pleasant. Denise chose Maggie right then and there as her role model.

Maggie was a bright light shining through her and our lives. She was referred to by many different terms of endearment: Mom, Grandma, Sweetie, Old Girl, and one in particular that her husband Gene used to call her: Maggie, Me Love. It occurred to me that linking Maggie to love was a wonderful happenstance. Maggie was a tremendously loving woman. She devoted her life to love. Growing up she loved her family. During the war, when Gene showed up in England at a dance Maggie attended with her sister, Maggie and Gene fell in love. After the war, at the age of 18, Maggie, by herself, journeyed to the states to be Gene's bride. Her 49 years of marriage were filled with love, including the last several of Gene's life when she single-handedly cared for him after his stroke. She loved her family - her two families - first the 3 girls Eileen, Teresa, and Ann and then 10 years later her second batch of Jim, Liz, and Billy. Of course, William and Alex, with whom she lived throughout their lives, plus others also benefited from her maternal care. Her love for all was evident, tough though it was. Liz remembers that in high school she was expected to be in the house by 6 or dark whichever was earlier - no Bramhall was going to be out at night. And despite Maggie's strictness, everyone wanted her to be their mother. She loved people and they loved her.

The love Maggie displayed was both kind and gentle and tenacious and?b? ?/b?enduring. In our scripture readings from today, we have the familiar words from the Apostle Paul about love. This passage from First Corinthians 13 seemed to be appropriate for Maggie, as we reflected on her life. Her love wasn't soft and sentimental; it was strong and powerful. She manifested love wherever she went. People knew instantly that Maggie was a person to be trusted; she met no strangers. Just as she loved people, others fell in love with her. Always in a dress, with her trademark pearls, she shone.

She understood what Paul talked about in describing love because it was the way she lived. She knew love as described: "Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends."

Our faith tells us that Maggie is in a better place. There she is reunited with those who have gone before and there she prays for those of us left living. God who created her and loves her, has drawn her there. The person who lived all but the last weeks of her life in good health, is healthy and vibrant once again.

May we who are left to mourn Maggie, remember her life as a celebration of love. May we draw closer to one another and share life as beloved companions. And that ultimately is what living is about. Let us remember her shining example as we seek to create our own. When you take the best of what you have experienced, may Maggie be your guide. She was the best. God bless her, God bless you. Amen.

Mike Bennett noted that Robert Wilson served at the Somme. This battle took place during the First World War between 1 July and 18 November 1916 on either side of the river Somme in France. The battle saw the British Expeditionary Force mount a joint offensive, with the French Army against the German Army, which had occupied large areas of France since its invasion of the country in August 1914. The Battle of the Somme was one of the largest battles of the war; by the time fighting paused in late autumn 1916, the forces involved had suffered more than 1 million casualties, making it one of the bloodiest military operations ever recorded. 		 STR06

24546 I47446  Winters  Jesse Franklin  22 Dec 1893  5 Jun 1986  0  Bio from Wikipedia:

Jesse Franklin Winters (December 22, 1893 '96 June 5, 1986), nicknamed "Buck" and "T-Bone", was an American right-handed Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Phillies from 1919 to 1923. He also played in the minor leagues until 1925 for the Kansas City Blues, Toronto Maple Leafs, Hartford Senators, Portland Beavers and Wichita Falls Spudders. He was listed during his playing career as 6' 1" and 165 pounds.

He began his professional career in 1916 at the age of 22 and played for nine seasons, until the age of 31 in 1925. He split his career between the major leagues and the minors, spending four full seasons and a part of a fifth at the former level. In the minors, he spent two full seasons at the Double-A level, parts of two seasons at the Double-A level and part of one season at the Single-A level. Based on the record that is available, it is known that he pitched in 106 minor league games, going 36'9636 with a 3.70 ERA in 656 innings. He also had 241 at bats, hitting .212 with four doubles.[1]

He played in the major leagues from 1919 to 1923, appearing in 110 games and going 13'9624 with a 5.04 ERA in 405 innings. He allowed 510 hits and 164 walks, while striking out 94 batters. He was used both as a relief pitcher and a starting pitcher, finishing in the top 10 on the National League leader board in games finished and saves multiple times. As a batter, he hit .171 in 117 at bats and in the field, he committed 10 errors for a .929 fielding percentage. He was also involved in six double plays.[2]

He was a highly touted young player at the onset of his career, being initially compared to Hall of Fame pitcher Christy Mathewson and eventually former 21-game winner Ferdie Schupp.[3][4] According to contemporary accounts of the time, his assets were many-fold: "He has every physical qualification", stated the New York Tribune, "as well as a varied assortment in the pitching line."[5] He also had a quick pickoff move to first base, with Giants' manager John McGraw claiming "(Winters) can peg to first base more quickly than any other man in the National League."[6] He performed well in the minor leagues, however a lack of control at the major league level, an indifference towards the game, a lack of ambition and eventually a bad arm ended his hopes of stardom.[4][5]

Following his playing career, he owned a tire company in Abilene, Texas, later becoming that town's mayor. 		 STR06

Alice was a kind, loving person to everyone she met. She was selfless and would lend a helping hand to any neighbor in need. No matter where she lived or what the circumstances, Mom always managed to make the old house into a loving home. She was a mother to every child in every neighborhood she lived in and no child ever went hungry or without. Her homemade biscuits, fried chicken and pies were loved by everyone who had the pleasure of eating them. She was a self-made seamstress and made many of her own and her children's clothing, quilts, curtains and other homemade crafts.

24595 I17785  Wood  Charles A.  22 Mar 1806  19 Mar 1858  0  The son of Azariah and Margaret Wood. (White and Toole, p 72). Middle name shown sometimes as Azariah/Azrall/Ayers. Barbara Yancey Dore shows Margaret's maiden name was STEDDHAME. She writes that he was "reported to be the first person buried in what would become the WOOD CEMETERY about 1860 or 1861. The Wood family deeded land for a cemetery at a later date. The Wood Cemetery Association, with a permanent care fund, meets at the cemetery each year on the first Saturday in August for their annual meeting and cemetery working."

The following biography, prepared by Robert Strickland, a descendant, is copied from FindAGrave:

Charles Ayers Wood came to Texas from New Jersey in 1831 when Texas was still a part of Mexico. Texas became a republic in 1836 and a state in 1845.

Sources disagree on his middle name. It could have been Ayers (also spelled Ayres or Ayars), his mother's maiden name, or Azrael (or Azraih / Azrail / Azel / Azrall, etc.), after his father. He had two grandsons who were both named Charles Ayers Wood. They were double cousins, sons of Wood brothers who married Meigs sisters. Ayers seems to be the most likely middle name.

According to a Bible originally owned by Samuel Stedham / Steddum / Statham, Charles Ayers Wood was the son of Azraih Wood and Margaret Ann Ayers. Charles was born 22 Mar 1806 in NJ and died 19 Mar 1858 in San Augustine Co., TX. His father, Azraih died 10 Dec 1811 near Philadelphia. "He drowned."

Azel Wood and Margaret Ayars were married Nov. 13, 1802, Cumberland County, NJ Marriages, Volume A 1795-1838, page 46 (www.familysearch.org). Margaret Ayars was born 17 Sep 1774 to John Ayars (1736-1802) and Susannah Jarman (1741-1824). Margaret died in 1815 or on 10 Feb 1813.

In John Ayars and his Descendants compiled by Frank D. Anders, Vineland, NJ, 1913, page 13, (Google Books) we find Margaret Ayars married Azel Wood. Margaret's sister, Mary Ayers (1764-1825) married Samuel Statham (the owner of the family Bible, above). Margaret and Mary were daughters of John Ayars (1736-1802) and Susannah Jarman (1741-1824) married 1757.

Charles was orphaned at the age of 7-9. Perhaps he could have have been raised by the Steddum family, but this is speculation. Samuel Steddum and Mary Ayers had a son Samuel II b. 1789 that was living in San Augustine Co. by 1836. Charles' children are listed in the Steddum family Bible. Samuel Stiddum received a land grant of 1 league and 1 labor in 1828.

By some accounts, Charles was a river boat captain before he came to Texas.

Recorded May 12, 1831, in an application for citizenship in the Republic of Texas [should instead be Mexico?]: "Mr. Chas. A. Wood presents himself a native of The United States with a passport from the Consul of the United States of Mexico, Citizen Francisco Martinez Pizarro, made 4th day of May 1830, Not numbered. Place of residence Nacodoches." Does anyone have a copy of this? Reported by Ann Gary, ancestry.com San Augustine County Message Board. Original document is probably in a library in San Augustine.

There is also an article about Charles in Sabine County Historical Sketches and Genealogical Records, by Edna McDaniel White and Blanche Findley Toole, LaBelle Printing Co. Beaumont, TX, Copyright, 1972. It says about Charles A. Wood and Elizabeth Muse, "They had married on their way to Texas, and he received a first class land grant in San Augustine Co. on the Attoyac River, but he never lived on it. He was a Blacksmith and worked on river boats. He also invented a special belt for his cotton gin." We know from other records, however, that he didn't marry Elizabeth Muse until after he came to Texas, and she was first married to Benjamin Franklin Howard.

Charles Ayers Wood received a first class grant of 1/3 league (1476 acres) of land west of San Augustine on the Attoyac Bayou. This was the amount granted to single men. (Had he had a family, he would have been entitled to a league and a labor of land.) The year of emigration was 1831. You can find a record of this on the TX GLO website, http://www.glo.texas.gov/cf/land-grant-search/index.cfm . Charles traded his grant for land near the location of the Wood Cemetery south of San Augustine. One source said this was part of the Shipp Survey, and another said he purchased it from William Lakey. (The Shipp and Lakey grants are adjacent.)

Charles Ayers Wood married Elizabeth Muse about 1837. Elizabeth Muse had first married Benjamin Franklin Howard (or Harwood) who was born about 1807. They were married 31 Jan 1830 or 1831 in Madison Co, TN. One date appears in a loose document and the other appears in the bound record. They had one child, George Washington Howard, born about 1834 in TN, died during the Civil War in 1863 or 1864 on or near Galveston Island.

Benjamin F. Howard and Elizabeth Muse separated. One family history account says that B.F. Howard left his family and was reported dead. However, records show that he was still living, in 1865 and possibly 1874 or later. For more information on the Howard family, see micspoon.tripod.com/nti/nti11685.html.

Elizabeth Muse then married Charles Ayers Wood. The 1850 and 1860 US Census recorded the family in San Augustine Co., TX. Charles was a farmer. They had at least 8 children, all born in Texas, probably all in San Augustine Co.

Charles A. Wood was said to be the first person buried on the land that would become the Wood Cemetery. The Wood family deeded the land later.

Many thanks to Skyquest, Find A Grave Contributor 46907373, for a draft of this memorial and for helpful tips. Thanks also to Nancy Jack, Contributor 47107985 for the information about the Howard family.

There is little agreement about Charles A. Wood's date of death. The headstone reads, "August 15, 1850." The headstone appears to be modern. This date is not possible if he is the father of daughter Sarah Mariah, born 10 months later. Other accounts list the date of death as 15 Aug 1860 or 1861. These are not likely because he doesn't appear with his family in the Sabine County census recorded 20 Jul 1860. The origin of the 1860 or 1861 date could have been when the cemetery was deeded by the Wood family. The 1858 date (Steddum Bible?) seems to be the only choice consistent with the census records.
