First Generation

1.  Jeremiah Upshaw was born before 1655 in England?. He lived in Gloucester Co, Virginia from 1667 to 1672. He died before 1700 at the age of 45 in Gloucester? Co, Virginia. Jeremiah was buried at an unknown cemetery in Gloucester? Co, Virginia. 
DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. 1655 (prior): Birth date approximated from calculating that his son William was of majority age in 1697 when he was a landowner in Gloucester Co, Virginia; William would have been born no later than 1677 & it is reasonable that Jeremiah, father of William, was about 20 years old at his birth, meaning he would have been born before 1655.

2. 1661, 28 July: Date of the christening record of a "Richard Upshot", male, at Wotton, Surry County, England, whose father was Jeremiah Upshot (sic). (Source: www.familysearch.org, "England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975.") Note that the given name Richard was used in the early generations of the Upshaw family in America; note also that Arthur, the progenitor of the Upshur family in America and supposed brother of the non-existant Abel, appears in the early records here as Arthur Upshott, later changed to Upshur. It is unfortunate that the name of the mother of this Richard Upshot was not given; if it were Cordelia, we would be on track.

3. 1667, Apr 10:  Virginia Land Patent Book 6, page 74: Jno. Benson & Jno. Waller, 423 acres in Ware Parish, Gloster (sic) Co., 10 April 1667.  Beg. at Mr. Talifro, along Wm. Peach, to Xtopher. Grinaway's land, to Edward Teale's line near the Hollybush Pond & c.
  Transportation of 9 persons:  Eliz. Higgenson, Wm. Hughes, Wm. Johnson, Mary Blury, JEREMIAH UPSHAW, Jno. Tilson, Tho. Stephens, Robt. Smith, Rebecca Toppin (or Tappin).

4. 1672, Oct 7:  Virginia Land Patent Book 6, page 435: Col. Jno. Blake, 200 acres, Nansimond (sic) Co., adjoining William Eson, 7 Oct 1672.  
   Transportation of 4 persons:  Mary Blenly, JEREMY UPSHAW, John Tilson, Tho. Stevens.  (Note: All four of these persons are also named in the 1667 Patent; see note #1). These land patents were probably fraudulently awarded for the transport of Jeremiah Upshaw and the other three persons twice reported. 

RESEARCH NOTES: 

1. There is NO record found of the supposed progenitor of the Upshaw family, "Abel" Upshaw, although many references are found to "Arthur" Upshott/Upshur, who was the proven progenitor of the "Upshur" family of Accomac Co, VA. See John Andrews Upshur, "Upshur Family in Virginia" (Lynchburg, VA: Warwick House Publishing, 1993, Second Edition), page 3-5.
   Furthermore, quoted from an original letter from Mr. John A. Upshur to Mrs. Grace E. Jared, dated 4 Nov 1961: "It is tradition - - I repeat - - TRADITION - that Arthur Upshur I had a brother Abel. Abel Upshur was NOT, repeat NOT, included in Capt. William Stone's list of headrights. The original document is right here in the old ORIGINAL court house records. Only Arthur UPSHOTT is listed. I know all about Capt. Stone and have personally seen every headright he ever received." Mr. John A. Upshaw was the highly respected researcher and author if the award winning and highly respected book, "Upshur Family in Virginia" and was, as is obvious, vehemently opposed to the carrying forward of this non-factual "tradition." He further states in the above cited letter that "Genealogy without proof is not worth the paper it is written on  ... “

2. Repeating the "traditional story" is Grace Jared, "They Met Challenges ... With Memoirs" (see UFJ, Vol. 1, page 48): "The tradition is that the Upshaws (sic) and Upshur families were descendants of two brothers, Abel Upsher, age 16 years, and Arthur Upsher, 14 years, who came from England to America in 1640. Even our English Upsher cousins accept this tradition. But they say they are not of Huguenot descent. The Upshurs of Virginia have proof that their ancestor was the Arthur Upsher above, but the Upshaw family have never proved that Abel, his [supposed] brother, was the Upshaw progenitor, but he tradition goes back 150 or 200 years."  
   Furthermore, "The History of the Upshaws, Lafons, Jacksons and Youngs" (Kentucky Historical Society Register, vol. IV, 1904 (see UFJ, Vol. 6, page 65) repeats the story: "Their names [Abel and Arthur Upcher] are entered on Capt. Stone's List of Headrights of ship in the year 1640. Capt. Stone paid the passage money of the youths." This account is not only non-factual, but untrue, as there is definately no one named Abel Upcher (or Arthur Upcher, for that matter) on the 1640 list. The actual record, of which I have a photocopy, from "Northampton Co., Virginia Orders, Deeds, Wills & etc., No. 2, 1640-1645", page 28 (which contains Captain William Stone's list of headrights in 1640) contains only the name of Arthur Upshott (sic) and no "Abel" Upshott, or any other surname, is listed. Essex County, home of William Upshaw, Capt., Gent., was created in 1692 from Old Rappahannock and their earliest records are extant, although no record of the name of any "Abel" Upshaw/Upshott/Upcher/etc. has ever been located in early Essex County, or anywhere else in the vicinity. I sincerely invite any other evidence pro or con.  

3. There are two mentions in early Virginia records of a "Jeremiah Upshaw", in 1667 & 1672 in the Virginia Land Patents (see notes 1 & 2 above), indicating there was such an actual person, who could have been the correct age to be William Upshaw's father.

4. William Upshaw, in his will, probated in 1720 Essex County, names his first (supposedly eldest) son as "Jeremiah", which is further circumstantial evidence that William's father was Jeremiah; William named no son "Abel".

5. There is a christening record of a "Richard Upshot", male, christening date: 28 July 1661 at Wotton, Surry County, England, whose father was Jeremiah Upshot. (Source: www.familysearch.org, "England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975." The given name Richard was used in the early generations of the Upshaw family in America; note also that Arthur, the progenitor of the Upshur family in America and supposed brother of the non-existant Abel, appears in the early records here as Arthur Upshott. It is unfortunate that the name of the mother of this Richard Upshot was given; if it were Cordelia, we would be on track.

Jeremiah Upshaw and Cordelia Waring? were married circa 1674 in Gloucester? Co, Virginia?. Cordelia Waring? was born before 1655 in England?. She lived in King & Queen Co, Virginia in 1704. She was livingon 16 Dec 1716 in King & Queen Co, Virginia. Cordelia died after 16 Dec 1716 at the age of 61 in King & Queen? Co, Virginia. She was buried at an unknown cemetery in King & Queen? Co, Virginia. 
DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. 1655 (prior): Birth date approximated from calculating that her son William was of majority age in 1697 when he was a landowner in Gloucester Co, Virginia; William would've been born no later than 1677 & it is reasonable that Cordelia, mother of William, was about 20 years old at his birth, meaning she would've been born before 1655.

2. 1704; Virginia Quit Rent Roll: King & Queen Co: "Martin, Cordelia, Widdo, 200 acres". (These were lists of landowners who paid "rent" to the King of England) (Annie Laurie Wright Smith, "The Quit Rents of Virginia, 1704" (Baltimore, MD: Genealogical Publishing Co, 1980), page 59; the only other "Martin" in King & Queen Co. in the 1704 Rent Roll was Elizabeth Martin, 400 acres.

3. 1716, Dec 16:  "Cordelia Martin" was mentioned as "mother" in the will of William Upshaw, Essex Co, VA; she was living at this time. This indicates that his mother "Cordelia", had been widowed by Jeremiah Upshaw, had remarried to (given name unknown) Martin, and also widowed by him, all prior to 1704 when she was named as "Cordelia Martin" in the Quit Rent Roll for King & Queen Co. 

COMMENTS: 

1. I have found no other mention of "Cordelia Upshaw", "Cordelia Martin", or "Cordelia (any surname)" in any of the Gloucester or Essex Co, Va, records I have searched.  The given name of her second husband, __________ Martin, is not known to me. "Cordelia Martin (Widdo)" is listed in the 1704 Rent Rolls for King & Queen Co, VA, and early King & Queen Co. records need to be searched. 

2. Several Upshaw researchers believe that Cordelia's maiden name may have been "Waring", although this is totally unsubstantiated, as far as I know.
   There are many "Waring" families in early Essex Co, VA, and there are Upshaw family connections with them, so that might be worth exploring. There are no "Waring" or "Martin" families mentioned in the "Vestry Book of Petsworth Parish, Gloucester County, Virginia 1677-1793", by C.G. Chamberlayne, and no reference to any "Cordelia" is found in the index of this book.  

3. Virginia Historical Index (by E.G. Swem) only gives one reference to "Cordelia Martin" which is to the same 1704 Rent Roll for King & Queen Co, VA (printed in the Virginia Magazine of History & Biography, Vol. 32 (1924), page 152).

4. C.G. Chamberlayne, "The Vestry Book of Stratton Major Parish, King and Queen County, Virginia" (Richmond, VA: The Library Board, 1931): No Martin references.

5. Clayton Torrence, "Virginia Wills and Administrations 1632-1800" (Baltimore, MD: Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 1972): This shows no "Waring" testator who could be of the proper age to have been her father. The earliest Waring testator is "Thos. Waring", 1754 Essex Co.

6. There is no mention of "Cordelia" (any surname) in "England and Wales Marriages 1530-1906".

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. The progenitor of the Upshaw family in Essex County, Virginia, "William Upshaw, Gent., planter," was living in Petsworth Parish, Gloucester County, Virginia, in 1699, when, on January 9th of that year, he purchased for a consideration of one hundred pounds sterling, from Harry Beverly, Gent., and Elizabeth, his wife, of the County of Middlesex, 1017 acres of land in Essex County, being part of a dividend of land granted to his father, Major Robert Beverly, deceased, situated on "Gilson's Maine Run", and adjoining the lines of Major Morris, Thomas Button, deceased, John Doughty and Thomas Sthreshley. The witnesses were James Reynolds, John Saunders, Thomas Srthreshley and John Doughty. (Essex Deed & Will Book 10, pp. 46-47). Doughty and Reynolds also bought land from Beverly at this date, and William Upshaw was one of the witnesses to the conveyances.
   On August 7, 1703, Upshaw conveyed 400 acres of this land to Charles Waller, of Petsworth Parish, Gloucester County, "cooper." James and Sarah Reynolds, of the aforesaid parish and county, and Will. Miller witnessed this transaction.

   The name of his first wife is unknown. He married second, Hannah Forrest, widow of James Carber. She was born ca. 1679 and died ca. 1763 in Essex County, Va. Her will was made 1 Sept. 1762 in Essex Co., Va.
   "Tyler's Quarterly", Vol. XIV, page 125 states, "Mrs. P.W. Hiden who has given so much of her valuable time to research work and the restoration  of the early records of Virginia says in her admirable article on the Tandy family that it seems evident that Hannah, wife of William Upshaw, and Susanna, wife of Charles Waller, were sisters. Their maiden name was almost certainly Forrest, since that name appears so frequently among their descendants. The Roanes, Reynolds, Crittendens, Upshaws and Wallers were all Gloucester people who between 1700-1717 joined other Gloucester families who had gone north into Essex Co., Va."
   "We find several persons by the name of Forrest living in Gloucester Co., Va., in the 17th century, among whom were Henry Forrest who patented 700 acres in 1650 and Edmund and John Forrest who received grants of land from the crown in 1684."
   "Hannah Forrest Carber Upshaw was left a widow for the second time when her oldest child was 16 years of age. She lived to see her sons zealous churchmen and prominent in civic and military affairs and her daughters married to prominent men of Essex Co., Va. She purchased and patented land and continued to manage the estate until her death, 15 September 1729 she assigned her son, Jeremiah Upshaw, all her right and title to the 220 acres of land which she bought of Robert Smith lying between the main swamp f Piscataway and Hoskins Creeks, "being the land whereon the said Jeremiah now dwells." This seems to be a gift of exchange for Jeremiah Upshaw in return deeds to his mother for consideration of 10 pounds, "all the plantation whereon Hannah Upshaw dweleth, situated and being in the Parish of South Farnham, Essex County, part of a tract of land my father Captain William Upshaw purchased from Harry Beverley, Esq,"
   Will of William Upshaw. Written and proved by William Upshaw and proved 17 May 1720, Essex Co., Va. James Griffing and Thomas Sthreshley, Jr. were witnesses.

   On 20 May 1720 letters of administration were granted to the widow and executrix, Hannah Upshaw, James Alderson, William Winston and Thomas Cooper Dickinson went on her bond.
   At the same court Thomas Sthreshley, Jr. was appointed Surveyor of the highways in the lace of Captain William Upshaw, Gent.
   The inventory of the estate of Capt. William Upshaw covering 9 pages of the record book, was returned to Essex Court by the appraisers, James Reynolds, Jr.; Charles Waller and Henry Tandy, 21 June 1720.  Among other items in the inventory is a parcel of old books some of which had been bequeathed to him by the will of his friend, Captain Leonard Tarrant, proved in Essex 16 July 1718, who names as his executors, "my loving friends, Paul Micou and William Upshaw." to whom he leaves my books.

COMMENTS:  

1. Although William Upshaw has been titled "Captain" in several previous articles and publications, I have found no case of this title being used in original records; neither do I find where he is a captain of militis, which is usually the origin of this title.

2.  William Upshaw was living in Petsworth Parish, Gloucester Co, VA, in 1697 and first bought land in Essex Co, VA, in 1699 although he still owned land in Gloucester Co. in 1704/5.  He was active in the Church in Petsworth Parish, Gloucester Co, until 1714, when he apparently moved to Essex Co.

3. Notes concerning the possible origins of William Upshaw of Gloucester & Essex counties, Virginia:

4. Various information and misinformation has been disseminated regarding the possible origins of William Upshaw of Gloucester and Essex Counties, Virginia. These legendary accounts have been published and republished since at least 1896, which account was first printed in the "Kentucky Historical Society Register" in 1906 (Vol 4 #10), until as recently as 1996 in the "Kentucky Explorer", March 1996 issue. The legend seems to have originated within the research of Thomas Teackle Upshur II, who printed "A Sketch of the Upshur Family" in 1887 (Quinby Papers, Alderman Library, University of Virginia).
   William Upshaw is the proven progenitor of all the Upshaw family in the United States and descent from him can usually be reasonably well documented. The first record of this William is on 28 October 1697, when Gawin Corbin received a land patent for 61 acres in Petso(sic) Parish, adjoining Wm. Upshaw, Mr. John Grimes, crossing Noxes (Knox?) Swamp, to Dragon Rode (sic) (Virginia Land Patent Book 9, page 90). This proves that William Upshaw was a resident of Gloucester County as early as 1697.
   The last record of William Upshaw is in 1720 Essex County, Virginia, when his will was proven (Essex County, Virginia, Will Book 3, page 143). In the interim from 1697 to 1720, there is much documentary evidence that he moved from Gloucester to Essex County.
   The legendary account of the ancestry of William Upshaw is based on two supposed brothers, Abel and Arthur Upshur, coming from Essex County, England to the Eastern Shore of Virginia in 1640 and William Upshaw is supposedly descended from the brother Abel. The Upshur family in America descends from Arthur, whose name first appears as "Upshott" and he is well documented in early Virginia records. However, contrary to the legendary story, the name of Abel Upshott/Upshur/Upshaw does NOT appear in any record yet examined. There is no factual record of there being any such person as Abel Upshaw.
   There is, however, jurisdictional factual evidence to support the fact that Jeremiah Upshaw was the father of William Upshaw. On 10 April 1667, Jno. Benson and Jno. Waller received a patent for 423 acres in Ware Parish, Gloucester County, Virginia, for the transport of 9 persons, which included "Jeremiah Upshaw" (Patent Book 6 page 74). On 7 October 1672, Col. Jno. Blake received 200 acres in Nansemond County, Virginia, for the transport of 4 persons, including "Jeremy Upshaw" (Patent Book 6 page 435).
   Furthermore, William Upshaw, in his will proven in 1720 in Essex County, Virginia, names his first (supposedly eldest) son as "Jeremiah", which is further circumstantial evidence that William's father was Jeremiah. The custom was, in that time, for the first born son to be named for the father's father.
   The "Upshur Family in Virginia", second edition, by Robert Irving Upshur and Thomas Teackle Upshur IV, 1993, pages 3-5, Chapter I "The Immigrants" gives a balanced comparison of the legendary Abel Upcher and the documented Jeremiah Upshaw.
   The salient points are these:
   1. There is no documentation of any person named Abel Upshott/Upcher/Upshaw.
   2. There is factual documentation of Jeremiah Upshaw.
   3. There is documentation of Jeremiah Upshaw in the Gloucester County, Virginia area in 1667 and 1672, where William was first documented in 1697.
   4. Jeremiah was the first named and supposedly eldest son of William as given in William's will. It was a custom in that time to name the first born son after the husband's father.
   The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the documented Jeremiah Upshaw is the father of William and not the undocumented Abel of tradition. Gloucester County, Virginia, records were destroyed in 1820 and those records are not extant, so scant evidence must be gleaned from other sources.
   Additional research includes searching for any mention of Jeremiah and Cordelia Upshaw in English records. Cordelia, William's mother, was named as "Cordelia Martin" in William's will in 1716. A "Cordelia Martin, Widd." is listed in the 1704 Quit Rent Rolls of King and Queen County, which shows she had evidently been widowed by Jeremiah Upshaw and had then married a "Martin" and been widowed by him, all prior to 1704. This would indicate that Jeremiah had died prior to 1704. Research is needed among early Virginia records to locate any mention of "Cordelia".

5. There is no mention of "William Upshaw" in "England and Wales Christening Records 1530-1906" or in "England and Wales Marriages 1530-1906".

6. It should be noted that William Upshaw, was alive as late as 9 February when the record is noted "Received of William Upshaw full Satisfaction  for all dues and demands due from him to my wife Mary as he Marrying my wives Mother the Widdow and Executrix of my wives father James Carber, Deceast and do hereby Acquitt and Discharge him the said Upshaw from all Gifts or Legesays which are or may hereafter become due to me  or my wife Mary by any of the ways aforesaid. Witness our hands and seals this Ninth day of February, 1718.
   (signed) James Rennolds Junr., Thomas Cooper Dickinson (see note below), Thomas Sthreshley Junr., Mary (N her mark) Dickinson. Recorded in Essex Court, March 20, 1749." (Essex County Will Book 8 page 302)
   His son, William Upshaw Jr., was born circa 1713. was marriied to Tamazen Sthreshley between 1733 and 1735, indicating that he was of majority age at that time. All deeds and other records of "William Upshaw" prior to 1720 would pertain to William Upshaw, Sr., who died between 1718 and 1720.

William Upshaw Sr. "Gent." and Susannah(?) (maiden name unknown) were married circa 1696 in Gloucester? Co, Virginia. Susannah(?) (maiden name unknown) was born circa 1676 in Gloucester? Co, Virginia. She died circa 1700 at the age of 24 in Gloucester Co, Virginia. She was buried at an unknown cemetery in Gloucester Co, Virginia. 
DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. No evidence has ever been found as to the name of the first wife of William Upshaw. However, as he named one of his two daughters by his first wife Cordelia, obviously after his mother, it is reasonable to think that the other daughter who was named Susannah may have been named after her mother (and William's first wife), Susannah.

William Upshaw and Susannah(?) (maiden name unknown) had the following children:

	+3	i.	Cordelia Upshaw, born ca 1698, Gloucester Co, Virginia; married Thomas Hipkins  Sr., bef 1716, Essex? Co, Virginia; died 1771, Essex Co, Virginia.
	+4	ii.	Susannah Upshaw, born bef 1700, Gloucester Co, Virginia; married William Brooking, bef 1716, Gloucester? Co, Virginia; died Gloucester? Co, Virginia.

William Upshaw Sr. "Gent." and Hannah Forrest? were married circa 1702 in Gloucester or Essex Co, Virginia. 
 Hannah Forrest? was born circa 1679. She died circa 1763 at the age of 84 in Essex Co, Virginia. She was buried at an unknown cemetery in Essex Co, Virginia.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. The date of birth or baptism of Cordelia Upshaw, eldest daughter of Captain William Upshaw, is not known. Records of Essex show that Alexander How stood Godfather to her. She married prior to 1716, Thomas Hipkins, son of John Hipkins of Middlesex County. They were living in Essex on November 10, 1717, for on that date, Thomas Hipkins sat as a member of a Jury for Essex.
   June 18, 1716, Captain Leonard Tarrant, "Gent." of St. Anne's Parish, Essex, for 50 pounds transfers to Thomas and Cordelia Hipkins, 202 acres of land situated on Cockleshell Creek,Essex, being part of a tract of 920 acres granted to the said Tarrant, May 28, 1716 (Deeds, Etc., Book 14, page 586).
   Thomas Hipkin's will, dated December 9, 1730, was proved in Essex August 17, 1731, by two of the witnesses: Francis Graves and Charles Wortham. He desired that his plantation whereon he resided be divided between his sons, Thomas and Andrew. "I lend to my beloved wife Cordelia, all my estate both real and personal during her widowhood and if she marries the said estate to be divided between my three sons and three daughters." He appoints his brother, James Hipkins, executor. (Will Book 5, page 50).
   At a court held for Essex County August 15, 1740, "William Griffin presented a Certificate for taking up a runaway Negroe man slave named Bristol belonging to Mrs. Cordelia Hipkins of this county and made oath that he never had received any satisfaction for the same, which is ordered to be Certified to the General Assembly for Allowance." (Order Book 12, page 72).

Several apprenticeship papers were witnessed by Susanna Brooking when as clerk, William Brooking bound out poor children of the parish, according to law. (Petsworth Parish Vestry Book, pp. 185, 204, 209). April 10, 1719, William Brooking, of Petsworth Parish, Gloucester County, planter, and Susanna, his wife, deed 230 acres of land on Cockleshell Creek, Essex County, formerly purchased from Leonard Tarrant, "Gent." of St. Anne's Parish, Essex, planter. (Deed Book 16, page 69).
   March 10, 1703/4, there was recorded in Essex County Deed and Will Book 11, page 203, a deed from James Reynolds and wife, Susanna, of Petsworth Parish, Gloucester County, to sons, James and Thomas Reynolds, for 1000 acres of land in Essex, to be equally divided between them. One of the witnesses to this deed was Robert Brooking.
   In the Vestry Book of Petsworth Parish, Gloucester County, under the year 1721, there is a reference to a "Robt. Brookins." What relation, if any, he was to William and Susanna Brooking is not disclosed. Apparently there was some connection between him and the Upshaw family, as they are constantly found witnessing deeds, etc., from one another, assuming that the Robert Brooking living in St. Stephen's Parish, King & Queen County, on December 1, 1742, is identical with the Robert Brookins, of Gloucester, mentioned above. On December 1, 1742, Robert Brooking, of King & Queen County, bought land in St. Anne's Parish, Essex, from Henry Robinson, "Gent." and Molly, his wife.Richard and Forrest Upshaw were witnesses to this deed. (Deed Book 22, page 432).
   In 1750, Robert Brooking, Gent., of St. Stephen's Parish, King & Queen County, purchased from John Maguffey, of Drysdale Parish, King & Queen County, for 1151 pounds of tobacco, 71 acres (except the family burying ground) in Essex, part of a tract of land John Maguffey bought from Edmund Paget, August 13, 1670, and the remainder purchased of Thomas Gouldman, November 1, 1672. Witnesses: John Upshaw, W. Rennolds and Henry Crittenden. (Deed Book 22, page 382).
   From the following deed we learn that he married Frances, daughter of Thomas Vivian, Gent.: May 18, 1741, Thomas Vivian, Gent., of King George County, "out of pure natural affection to his Daughter, Frances, wife of Robert Brooking," of St. Stephen's Parish, King & Queen County, deeds to him 220 acres of land in Essex County. (Deed Book 22, page 235).

   Jeremiah Upshaw (footnote 6): In "Tyler's Magazine", XVII, 256-257, he is incorrectly given as the son of Arthur Upshur) born probably in Gloucester County, but as far as the records go there is nothing to tell the date. His brother, John, at the death of their mother, acquired the "Large Family Bible", which, if found, would no doubt give  the dates of births of all the children of Captain William and Hannah Upshaw.  On May 22, 1734, Jeremiah is mentioned as a member of a Grand Jury for Essex County. The same year he received a grant of 240 acres in South Farnham Parish, Essex. The land, which is described as being located "on a branch of Hoskin's Pocoson to a corner of Mr. Upshaw's line", had been granted previously to Margaret McHenry, but became escheated,  In 1729, he was married and living neighbor to John Hunt and John Moody. He was a witness to the latter's will, December 10, 1735, and went on his son, John Moody's executor's bond.  His will, dated November 18, 1746, was proved in Essex, February 18, 1746/47. He names sons James and William Upshaw; daughter, Hannah Upshaw, and appoints his brothers, Richard and John Upshaw, executors. Witnesses to the will were Sarah Roane, W. Rennolds and Thomas Cooper Dickinson. (Will Book 7, page 490).

2. Jeremiah Upshaw, son of William Upshaw, was born ca. 1704 in Gloucester Co., Va., and died 1746-7 in Essex Co., Va. He married before 1729 to Miss Buckner.  His will was probated in Essex Co., Va.,  Feb. 1746/7. Child of Jeremiah Upshaw and Miss Buckner: James Upshaw, born ca. 1730.

3. This is problematic as Thomas Jones names his wife to be "Mary", not Hannah. Furthermore, Thomas names five children, not four, in his will. Perhaps this connection between Thomas Jones and Hannah Upshaw is not correct; the connection as given in the secondary sources below include no documentation - what is documentation of this marriage? More research needed.

   IV. (fourth child of William & Hannah Upshaw): John Upshaw, born in Essex, July 21, 1715 (footnote #13: "Collections of the Virginia Historical Society", New Series, Vol. 10, p. 373. It is stated in the same volume that John Upshaw was the ancestor of James Upshaw, which is incorrect, unless the writer means his collateral ancestor, in which case he is correct, as John Upshaw was James Upshaw's uncle.) died there, July 23, 1801. He married Mary Lafon, born in Essex, 1744, died 1807. She was a daughter of Nicholas Lafon, said to have been of Huguenot descent, who died in Essex before March 20, 1749 (footnote #14: New York Genealogical & Biographical Record, Vol. XLVI, 103). They were married at some time between October 16, 1750, when John Rennolds was appointed guardian to Hannah, Richard, Mary and Elizabeth Lafon, orphans of Nicholas Lafon (Will Book 8, page 373). and August 21, 1769, when John Upshaw, with the consent of his wife, Mary, sold his share of Nicholas Lafon's estate to John Rennolds, who had intermarried with Elizabeth, widow and relict of Nicholas Lafon. (Deed Book 30, page 281-284).
   September 18, 1749, John Upshaw paid 80 pounds to Charles Waller, Gent. of Overwharton Parish, Stafford County, for the remaining 200 acres his father, Captain William Upshaw had deeded to Charles Waller, Sr., in 1703; Elizabeth, wife of Charles Waller, released her right of dower. (Deeds, Etc., 24, page 427).
   There is a deed of record in Essex County Deed Book 24, page 374, dated October 17,1749, by which John Upshaw for "the love and affection I do owe and bear to my God son, Thomas Coleman, son of Robert Spilsbe Coleman, and Sarah, his wife, of the County of King & Queen, conveys to the said Thomas Coleman one lot no. 74, on the riverside in the Borough or Town of Tappahannock, as by the plan and survey made by Robert Brooke, Gent., Surveyor."
   John Upshaw, Gent. of Essex County, planter, September 12, 1746, for 57 pounds, purchased from Lt.-Colonel John Henry, Gent., and Sarah, his wife, of St. Paul's Parish, Hanover, a plantation of 500 acres of land in the Parish of Northam, County of Goochland, beginning at Captain William Winston's corner pointers in the county line dividing Louisa and Goochland counties, part of a tract of 3400 acres granted to John Syme by patent 28 September, 1730, and by him in his last will and testament proved in Hanover Court 5 April, 1739, given to the above named Sarah, his wife.  Witnesses to this transaction were David Lyle, William Winston, Robert Depriest and Robert Donald. (Goochland County Deed Book 5).
   John Upshaw served Virginia with zeal and distinction through a long series of years and in important stations. In 1742, he was appointed Tobacco Inspector at Hobbs' Hole. (Order Book 13, p. 87). He was one of the Gentlemen Justices of Essex; Churchwarden of South Farnham Parish, in 1764. (Meade: "Old Churches, Ministers and Families of Va.", p. 393).; Sheriff, 1770. From 1758 to 1765, represented Essex County in the House of Burgesses, and was Chairman of the Committee of Safety for Essex County, 1775. He appears as a signer of the "Articles of the Westmoreland Association, drawn by Richard Henry Lee and presented by him to a meeting of restive patriots held at Leedstown, in Westmoreland County, February 27, 1766, which in opposition to the odious Stamp Act, was pledged to use no articles of British importation, and on May 18, 1768, was a signer of the resolution of the Williamsburg Association, which met in the Apollo Room of the old Raleigh Tavern, in that city, and who bound themselves to abstain from the use of proscribed British merchandise, and to promote and encourage industry and frugality, and discourage all luxery and extravagancy." ("Virginia Magazine of History", XXIV, 1iii, & Hardesty: "Historical & Geographical Encyclopedia", p. 357.)
  When the people of Essex County met at the Court House in Tappahannock, Virginia, July 9, 1774, "seriously to consider the present dangers which threaten ruin to American liberty," John Upshaw was chosen Moderator. The fourteenth resolution which was proposed and unanimously agreed to was: "That a subscription be set on foot for raising provisions for the poor of Boston who now suffer by the blocking up of their port, and that Robert Beverly, John Lee, and Muscoe Garnett, in Saint Anne's Parish and Archibald Ritchie and John Upshaw, in the upper part of Southfarnham Parish, and Meriwether Smith and James Edmondson, in the lower part thereof, take in subscriptions for that purpose, etc.; and the before mentioned gentlemen are empowered to charter a vessal to send it to Boston." (Force's: "American Archives", Vol. 1, p. 527).
   Court held for Essex County, October, 1778: "John Upshaw, Gent., is appointed Treasurer of this county, which is ordered to be certified." (Order Book 29, p. 381).
   In 1787, he was one of the Judges of Essex County Court. ("Cal. of Va. State Papers", IV, 340).

5. 1810, 16 February (newspaper account of Dr. William Upshaw duel):
   Natchez, February ____ 1810.
   On Saturday last a duel was fought on the Louisiana side of the Mississippi opposite Natchez between Capt. Winfield Scott of the U.S. Artil. and Dr. Upshaw, surgeon in the 5th Infantry, in which the former received a severe wound on the pericanium (sic) at the first fire, which for the time ended the affair. The wound of Capt. S. though serious and highly painful is not considered dangerous, the skull being slightly furrowed but not fractured.
   The groundwork of the meeting was layed (sic) at New Orleans as far back as last spring, when the parties disputed on the subject of the public character and official conduct of General Wilkinson. Dr. U's continued indisposition and Capt. S's subsequent absence from the armys (sic) prevented any correspondence between them on the subject of their differences until December last when Dr. U. replied to a note of Capt. S's that he would prefer charges against him founded on certain disrespectful words used by Capt. S towards Gen. W in Virginia in the fall of 1808, which were accordingly charged as "mutiny", and on certain of Capt. S's company transactions which were charged as "conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman."
   An arrest ensued and a General Court Martial was ordered to investigate the case. But before the court took up the subject, another charge was added by the same person, for disrespect and contempt expressed for Gen. W. after the arrest and after Gen. W. had resigned all command.
   The trial was long and interesting, in the course of it the accused went into evidence to prove the truth of one of his declarations, to wit: that Gen. W. was a liar and a scoundrel. How far success crowned the attempt the world will in a short time have an opportunity of judging as it is understood the trial will be published. The court acquitted the accused of the charge for mutiny, found him guilty of only a part of the charge in relation to the company transactions, at the same time expressly acquitting him of everything fraudulent and ungentlemanly; and also found him guilty of uttering of Gen. W. the words "traitor, liar and scoundrel" which were pronounced unofficerlike (sic), and sentenced him to be suspended from all military command and emolument, for the space of twelve months.  
   There was added to the sentence a recommendation to Gen. Hampton to remit 9 months of the suspension; but for reasons which will no doubt be satisfactory when known, the general declined acting on the recommendation. 
   It was on publication of his sentence that Capt. S. again addressed himself to Dr. U which led to the meeting above described.

7. 1811, 2 Sep: Obituary of Dr. William Upshaw:
   Died the day before yesterday in the bloom of life, Dr. William Upshaw, one of the ablest physicians of this city by the event of his knowledge in his profession and by the mildness of his manners. Notwithstanding the rapid progress and the redoubled paroxysms of his disease, he finished his earthly career with that calm and resignation that characterizes the just. His last looks were met by a few friends who surrounded his death bed who to the last moment tendered him their affectionate but ineffectual aid. It is cruel to see a man fall victim to this disease who by his talents and experience would perhaps have contributed to arrest its progress. Dr. Upshaw, after having finished the long and tedious study of medicine in England, had the advantage of having perfected himself in the celebrated University of Montpelier. To a good and solid education was united a liberality and disintereatedness (sic) of character but little known. Not alone to his friends is his memory dear, the remembrance of his good qualities are consecrated by the regrets and tears of the indigent.

1. "The Upshaw Family of Essex", by Lenora Higginbotham Sweeny:
   William Upshaw was not of age at his father's death and John Jones was appointed his guardian. (Guardian Book, 1796-1811, p. 94). His will, dated August 9 (sic), 1811, was proved in New Orleans, La., September 18, 1811, and recorded in Essex County, Virginia, February 17, 1812. He mentions his brother, Edwin Upshaw and nephew John Upshaw Waring. The latter testified in Essex Court that his uncle, William Upshaw, died in New Orleans, 31 August 1811. (Essex County Will Book 17, p. 335).
   It is possible that he is the "Doctor" Upshaw mentioned in "The Cabells and Their Kin" as having fought a duel in New Orleans with Joseph Megginson Cabell, the outcome of which may not have proved so fortunate to him as the one he fought with Skelton Jones, before leaving Virginia for Louisiana, of which we have the following account from the Richmond Enquirer, of October 23, 1805:
   "The meeting between Dr. William Upshaw and Skelton Jones, Esq., both of this city, is stated to have taken place Monday evening, on the Maryland shore. They were prevented by the wind from crossing the Potomac sooner - They fought at 3 yards distance. Mr. Jones is said to have been wounded in the upper part of the head. Dr. Upshaw escaped without any injury."

   IX. Margaret Upshaw, youngest daughter of Captain William and Hannah Upshaw, married Samuel Hipkins, son of John Hipkins, whose will was proved in Richmond County, 1717. He was living in Farnham parish, Richmond County, 1733, where, on August 23, of that year, Thomas and Sarah Ship, of Essex County, deed to him 200 acres lying in St. Anne's Parish, Essex County. On April 22, 1734, Samuel Hipkins, then a resident of St. Anne's Parish, Essex,  took the oath as Ensign of Captain Mungo Roy's Company of Essex Militia, and on May 19, 1741, he was promoted [to] Lieutenant of Captain Benjamin Winston's Troop of Horse, Essex County Militia. (Order Book 9, page 199, and Order Book 12, page 174). His name appears among the freeholders at a poll taken in an election of Burgesses in Essex County, March 20, 1741; commissioned a Justice of the Peace for Essex, March 15, 1742 and served consecutively until his death in 1764.
   May 13, 1743, John Satterwhite, of Caroline County, deeded to Samuel Hipkins, of Essex County, for 25 pounds, one hundred acres of land (excepting burial plot eight feet square), in Essex, on the head of Occupation Swamp, joining the land "where the said Hipkins lives," it being part of a patent formerly granted to Christopher Blackburn. Ann, the wife of John Satterwhite, releases her right of dower. (Deed Book 23, page 12-14).
   October 15, 1751, Samuel Hipkins, Gent., "pursuant to a Military Commission from under the land of Lewis Burwell, Esqr., President of the Council of Virginia appointing him Captain of a Troop of Horse in this County took the oaths according to Law and subscribed the Test." (Order Book 17, page 108). In 1755, James Rennolds, Gent., was Cornet in "Capt. Samuel Hipkins' Company of soldiers." (Order Book 21, page 116).
   When a Court was held for Essex, May 17, 1757, Colonel William Roane, Major Samuel Hipkins and Captain Paul Micou, presented their several commissions whereupon they took the oaths prescribed by the Act of Parliament and subscribed the tests, etc. (Order book 21, page 363). At some date later he was commissioned Colonel of Essex County Militia.
   At a Court held at Captain Forrest Upshaw's house in Essex County, May 16, 1758, "Samuel Hipkins, Gent., is appointed to take a list of Tithables in the Upper Precinct of St. Anne's Parish for the present year." (Order Book 29, page 176).
   December 28, 1762, he corroborated a deed of gift of a slave which he had given his son, Richard Hipkins, at the time of his marriage. (Deed Book 29, page 159). In the same deed book, at page 239, is recorded a deed of gift of a slave to his son, Le Roy Hipkins, of South Farnham parish, dated August 3, 1763, and on page 251, is recorded a deed of gift of a slave to his son, Samuel Hipkins.
   From the will of Colonel Samuel Hipkins, dated March 9, 1764, proved in Essex, September 18, 1769, is gleaned, his widow, Margaret (Upshaw) Hipkins died about this latter date, and that they left four sons, Richard, Le Roy, Samuel and John Hipkins and two daughters, Mary Ann Roane and Patsey Sthreshley.

DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. A COMMENT CONCERNING THE NAME OF FOREST/FORESTER UPSHAW.           
Until 2009, all research references have given his name as "Forrest" although, as it may be evidenced in the twenty eight citations in 1757 & 1758 Essex County, Virginia, to "court held at the house of Forester Upshaw", his name is given in all but one of those cases as "Forester" Upshaw, His full name is, therefore, proven to be "Forester", although he obviously also was known by the shortened version of "Forest" Upshaw. 

2. 1718 (circa): Birthdate calculated from the fact that he witnessed the will of Thomas Sthreshley, Sr. on Nov. 5, 1735, and must have been at least 16 years old at that time.

1.  Lenora Higginbotham Sweeny, "The Upshaw Family of Essex".
   FORREST UPSHAW, not named as were his brothers, in the will of his father, Captain William Upshaw, December 16, 1716, was born not later than 1718, for with Thomas Graves and Richard Graves he witnessed the will of Thomas Sthreshley, Sr., Nov. 5, 1735, and must therefore have been at least 16 years old at that time. (Source: Essex County, Loose Papers, 
E C - N - 108). 
   February 16, 1743, he was a witness to an indenture between John Gatewood, of South Farnham Parish, Essex, and William Rennolds, of the same parish and county. (Deeds, Etc., Book 13, p. 121).
   With William Sthreshley and Hannah Webb, he went on the bond of the latter as executrix (sic) of the estate of Edward Webb, deceased. March 20, 1750. (Will Book 8, p. 220).
   November 21, 1749, he is recorded as bondsman for James Dillard, as guardian of Rachel Hunt, orphan of John Hunt, Sr., deceased. (Order Book 16, p. 4).
   Forrest Upshaw married Ann, the widow of John HUnt, Sr., and was appointed guardian of his step-daughters, Elizabeth and Rachel Hunt. He produced his ward, Rachel Hunt's account in Essex Court, August, 1752.
   He served in the French and Indian War as Captain, Essex County Militia. ("Essex County Militia, 1753" - Archives Dept.,  Va. State Library).
   During his term of service he was sent by John Corbin, County Lieutenant of Essex County, to convey a number of drafted and enlisted men to Fredericksburg, "and if there is no person appointed by the Governor to receive them there that they be sent to Fort Loudon to the Commanding officer there." Upon his arrival at Fredericksburg he turned them over to Lieutenant Peter Steenbergen and received the following receipt:
                                                                                                               Fredericksburg, July the 5th 1757. Then recd. of Capt. Forest Upshaw of the County within Mentioned the following drafts and Soldiers, Abner Dobins, John Burnett, Thos. Brown, James Hamilton, James Ingram, Ralph Farmer, Joseph Noell, Charles Carnes, all Drafts, John Sutliff, Joseph Minter, & Thomas Burnett (enlisted soldiers). Peter Steenbergen Lieut.
                                                                                                                 (Deed Book 27, p. 320)
   At a Court held for Essex County at Tappahannock, January 17, 1758, it was ordered that on account of "the infectuous disease of small-pox that the court be held at Capt. Upshaw's House". (Order Book 22, p. 95).
   Captain Forrest Upshaw appears to have died circa 1759, leaving at least three children: Le Roy, Milley and John Upshaw. Archibald Ritchie was appointed administrator of his estate, February 20, 1759. John Lee, Jr., goes on his bond. An inventory of his estate was taken February 23, 1759, by Silvanus Tandy, John Smith and John Davis and recorded May 16, 1759. (Will Book 11, p. 161, 185, 292).
   His widow, Ann (Hunt) Upshaw survived him thirty-six years, dying 1795, in Essex County. There is recorded a payment to John Clarke for carrying the news of her death to her heirs in Amherst County. Thomas Dix and William Latane administered the estate. Payments were to legatees: James Pamplin (footnote 17: Ensign, Amherst County Minute-men; Captain of Militia, 1780; promoted Major, 1781; resigned on account of old age, 1796) in right of his wife, Rachel; John Christian, in right of his wife, Elizabeth; Jeremiah Burnett, Mildred Burnett and Catherine Burnett; James Dillard, Jr., administrator of James Dillard, Sr.; Le Roy and John Upshaw.
   From the settlement of the estate, it would seem that William Upshaw's widow, Elizabeth (Hunt) Upshaw, married second, John Christian; Rachel Hunt married James Pamplin, and they moved to Amherst County; Mildred Upshaw married Jeremiah Burnett; Mary Ann Hunt married James Dillard, Sr. (footnote 18: James Dillard, Sr., born October 15, 1729, died August 24, 1794, at "Islington," Amherst County; married July 8, 1748, Mary Ann (born April 28, 1734; died August 26, 1787) daughter of John Hunt, Sr., and sister of Elizabeth Upshaw. Their son, James Dillard, Jr., (born October 29, 1755), married April 3, 1782, Jane (born December 12, 1757) daughter of Maj. John Starke, of Hanover Co., Virginia. James Dillard, Jr., served as Capt. in the 10th Va. Regt. Contl. Line in the Revolution. (see his application for a pension, of record in the Veterans Bureau, Washington, D.C.).
   Some time before the Revolution, many of the Essex families originally from Gloucester, answering the call of the "Blue Mountains", began to migrate westward, and at the outbreak of the Revolutionary War, we find Le Roy and John Upshaw living in Amherst County, where they both saw service with the Amherst militia.

   “Mrs. Upshaw” noted at the southern edge of the John Upshaw plat of 500 acres, 1787. (Editor’s Note: The identity of this “Mrs. Upshaw” is unknown to me although as this is shown on a plat dating 1787, it must be Ann Upshaw, widow of Forrester Upshaw, mother of John Upshaw, owner of the 500 acres mentioned in this plat). Ann Upshaw is not found in any records other than those of Essex County. I suppose it is possible that John may have brought her to Elbert County with him when he came with his family in 1787, although I know of no other evidence of her having been in Georgia.

9. Note: Despite the repeated references to the will of Mrs. Ann Upshaw, I have not located any will of Ann Upshaw, recorded or otherwise, in Essex County. There is no will for her found in Wesley E. Pippenger, Virginia's Lost Wills, An Index (Tappahannock, VA: privately printed, 2013). 
   It may have been held out as evidence and filed elsewhere because of the Court case involving portions of her estate - TOB. There is a court case which originated in Amherst County involving slaves mentioned in the will of William Upshaw in 1761 "The negroes in the possession of Mrs. Ann Upshaw, that was gave my wife by her brother John Hunt, my part I desire may be equally divided amongst my uncle Forrest Upshaw's three children at their mother's decease, Leroy, Milley and John ...". This court case is found abstracted in "Virginia Reports", Vol. 2, pages 381-394 and was printed in the Upshaw Family Journal, Vol. 8 #4, Winter 1982, pp. 96-104.

This conflicts with other information about Charles which indicates he was born circa 1721 (not 1792/3) and that he died in Orange Co, VA, abt 1792 (not in Madison Co, VA, in 1795); which is correct or is this referring to two different Charles Brookings'?

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. The Brooking Line, 1 Jan 1987, page 18; family sketch of William Brooking & Susannah Upshaw Brooking; no documentation given.  This states that "Frances Upshaw Brooking was a Patriot in the American Revolution, having furnished corn and beef for the use of the Army.  Public Service claim is in State Library files, Richmond, Va.  Copies of Brooking Bible is in the University of Virginia library.  Sallie D. Brooking Gibson's DAR National number 453552.

NOTES:

1. I am very uncertain of whether this Frances, wife of Charles Brooking, was Frances "Upshaw" or Frances "Vivian". Mr. Tony Quinn, in Dec. 1999, sent me a copy of a Brooking Family Bible from the Library of Virginia which does not give Frances' maiden name, only that "Charles & Frances Brooking were married 3rd June 1754". Also, from "Genealogies of Virginia Families From the William and Mary College Quarterly Historical Magazine", Vol. V (Baltimore, MD: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1982), page 258 is (concerning Robert Brooking) "From the following deed we learn that he married Frances, daughter of Thomas Vivian, Gent.: May 18, 1741, Thomas Vivian, Gent., of King George County, "out of pure natural affection to his Daughter, Frances, wife of Robert Brooking," of St. Stephen's Parish, King & Queen County, deeds to him 220 acres of land in Essex County. (Deed Book 22, page 235).

2. I cannot place Frances Upshaw in the Upshaw family as of 1999.  Who were her parents?  If she was married in Culpeper Co, VA, check marriage bonds there for consents.  Also check King & Queen Co, VA, for Frances Brooking estate ca 1804. If Frances (Upshaw) Brooking was 85 years old when she died in 1804 (see obituary in primary source #3), her father would've been born before 1700, who must be one of the sons of William Upshaw of Essex Co., although this relationship has not yet been discovered; check those estates carefully for Frances.

3. (Information furnished in 1989 letter to TOB from Mrs. E.H. Gibson, 200 Hiawatha Trail, Georgetown, KY 40324): FRANCES UPSHAW (b ca 1734), md 3 June 1754, Essex(sic) Co, VA, to Charles Brooking, born 1720 Gloucester Co, VA; his will was probated in 1795 Madison Co, VA, naming four sons and a niece. She (Frances) died 27 Oct 1804 in King & Queen Co, VA (per Brooking Bible record).  She was a Patriot in the American Revolution, having furnished supplies for the use of the Army. The family records at the University of Virginia state that Charles & Frances were cousins.  (Note:  need to secure a copy of these "family records at the University of Virginia"; asked Mrs. Gibson for a copy 8 Jan 1990).  Additional note - Charles Brooking named one of his sons Upshaw Brooking who died at the age of 20.  (Note:  See Brooking Family Bible record - I believe this would've been Upshaw Davis Brooking, b 1768, d 1788).

   Mr. Quinn furnishes these comments in July 2000:
   "In 1979, four descendants of Charles & Frances Brooking published a family history titled "Five Oaks, Their Roots and Acorns". In this they assert (with no proof) that Frances was either 'Upshur' or 'Upshaw'. They obtained a family Bible of Robert Upshaw Brooking and, on that basis, they concluded her maiden name was 'Upshaw'.

They found the headwaters of the James River, no bigger than a man's arm, flowing from under a stone. (Source:  "History of St. Mark's Culpepper Co, VA", by Raleigh T.

   (Child of Jeremiah Upshaw): James Upshaw, perhaps the oldest son of Jeremiah Upshaw, was born circa 1730 (footnote 7: Death Notices in Richmond newspapers: "Col. James Upshaw, aged 76 years, on July 22, 1806." (William & Mary College Quarterly, VII,201).) He married Suca, the widow of William Sthreshley, (died 1750), and daughter of Captain Thomas
Jones, Gent., and wife, Hannah. She was sister to John Jones, who, in his will proved in Essex in 1759, bequeaths to "my sister, Suca Upshaw my Riding Chair & one bay horse called Barby." John Jones names also his nephews, James and Jeremiah Upshaw, Thomas and William Sthreshley and nieces, Elizabeth and Mary Jones. Among other legatees was an aunt, Martha Sale, wife of Cornelious Sale (footnote 7a: son of Cornelious Sale, who died in Essex County, 1746. Will Book 7, page 501). who, in his will dated October 3, 1772, and recorded in Essex County Will Book 13, page 12, July 17, 1775, made bequests to James and  Suca Upshaw's children.
   We gather from the division of Mrs. Hannah Upshaw's estate, that James Upshaw had married his cousin, Suca Jones, and that she and John Jones, Thomas Jones and William Jones were grandchildren of Hannah Upshaw, wife of Captain William Upshaw. December 20, 1757, James Upshaw was appointed guardian of Thomas and William Sthreshley, orphans of William Sthreshley, dec'd. The same day William Daingerfield, Esqr., Francis Waring, Thomas Waring and John Lee, Gents., divided the estate of William Sthreshley, dec'd., between James Upshaw in right of his wife, Suca's dower, and his orphans, Thomas and William Sthreshley. According to the law of that day he not only enjoyed the estate of his wife, but partly that of his step-children, for in the settlement of the estate James Upshaw received for "boarding & clothing Thomas and William Sthreshley 7 years at 16 pounds per year, 112 pounds; to cash for their schooling 2 pounds, 17 shillings, 3 pence." (Order Book 22, page 94 and Will Book 11, page 43-45). In 1761, there is recorded a payment by him to Leonard Garnett for "schooling" them. (Guardian Book, page 11).
   In 1767, James Upshaw was commissioned Captain of Essex County Militia, and qualified to his commission, Nov. 17th of the same year. (Order Book 27, page 37).
   He was one of the signers of the Articles of the Westmoreland Association in 1766. (Collection of the Virginia Historical Society, New Series, Vol. 10, page 373). 
   He removed later to Caroline County, where he was one of the Justices, 1770-1778, and Sheriff, 1785-1787. In 1774 he served as a member of the Caroline County Committee of Safety, and in 1778, was commissioned Lieutenant-Colonel of the Caroline Militia. and served during the War of the Revolution.
   At his death, July 22, 1806, he left the following children: Elizabeth Upshaw, James Upshaw, Jerry (Jeremiah) Upshaw and Martha Upshaw.

2. James Upshaw, son of Jeremiah Upshaw, son of William Upshaw, was born ca. 1730; died 1806. He married Suca Jones, daughter of Thomas Jones and Hannah Upshaw. James and Suca were first cousins. At the time of her marriage to James Upshaw,  Suca Hones was the widow Sthreshley.
   Children of James Upshaw and Suca Jones: (I) Elizabeth Upshaw; (II) James Upshaw, Jr., born 1755; (III) Jeremiah Upshaw.

   (Child of Jeremiah Upshaw): James Upshaw, perhaps the oldest son of Jeremiah Upshaw, was born circa 1730 (footnote 7: Death Notices in Richmond newspapers: "Col. James Upshaw, aged 76 years, on July 22, 1806." (William & Mary College Quarterly, VII,201).) He married Suca, the widow of William Sthreshley, (died 1750), and daughter of Captain Thomas
Jones, Gent., and wife, Hannah. She was sister to John Jones, who, in his will proved in Essex in 1759, bequeaths to "my sister, Suca Upshaw my Riding Chair & one bay horse called Barby." John Jones names also his nephews, James and Jeremiah Upshaw, Thomas and William Sthreshley and nieces, Elizabeth and Mary Jones. Among other legatees was an aunt, Martha Sale, wife of Cornelious Sale (footnote 7a: son of Cornelious Sale, who died in Essex County, 1746. Will Book 7, page 501). who, in his will dated October 3, 1772, and recorded in Essex County Will Book 13, page 12, July 17, 1775, made bequests to James and  Suca Upshaw's children.
   We gather from the division of Mrs. Hannah Upshaw's estate, that James Upshaw had married his cousin, Suca Jones, and that she and John Jones, Thomas Jones and William Jones were grandchildren of Hannah Upshaw, wife of Captain William Upshaw. December 20, 1757, James Upshaw was appointed guardian of Thomas and William Sthreshley, orphans of William Sthreshley, dec'd. The same day William Daingerfield, Esqr., Francis Waring, Thomas Waring and John Lee, Gents., divided the estate of William Sthreshley, dec'd., between James Upshaw in right of his wife, Suca's dower, and his orphans, Thomas and William Sthreshley. According to the law of that day he not only enjoyed the estate of his wife, but partly that of his step-children, for in the settlement of the estate James Upshaw received for "boarding & clothing Thomas and William Sthreshley 7 years at 16 pounds per year, 112 pounds; to cash for their schooling 2 pounds, 17 shillings, 3 pence." (Order Book 22, page 94 and Will Book 11, page 43-45). In 1761, there is recorded a payment by him to Leonard Garnett for "schooling" them. (Guardian Book, page 11).
   In 1767, James Upshaw was commissioned Captain of Essex County Militia, and qualified to his commission, Nov. 17th of the same year. (Order Book 27, page 37).
   He was one of the signers of the Articles of the Westmoreland Association in 1766. (Collection of the Virginia Historical Society, New Series, Vol. 10, page 373). 
   He removed later to Caroline County, where he was one of the Justices, 1770-1778, and Sheriff, 1785-1787. In 1774 he served as a member of the Caroline County Committee of Safety, and in 1778, was commissioned Lieutenant-Colonel of the Caroline Militia. and served during the War of the Revolution.
   At his death, July 22, 1806, he left the following children: Elizabeth Upshaw, James Upshaw, Jerry (Jeremiah) Upshaw and Martha Upshaw.

2. James Upshaw, son of Jeremiah Upshaw, son of William Upshaw, was born ca. 1730; died 1806. He married Suca Jones, daughter of Thomas Jones and Hannah Upshaw. James and Suca were first cousins. At the time of her marriage to James Upshaw,  Suca Hones was the widow Sthreshley.

2. (1993) John McGiffert indicates that he md Judith C. Ball; did he marry "Elizabeth" or "Judith C." Ball?  What documentation?

William Roane Jr. and Elizabeth Ball were married in 1758 in Virginia. Elizabeth Ball was born circa 1733. She was buried at an unknown cemetery.

William Roane and Elizabeth Ball had the following child:

	95	i.	Spencer Roane was born on 4 Apr 1762 in Essex Co, Virginia. He was buried at an unknown cemetery. 1. "The Upshaw Family of Essex", by Lenora Higginbotham Sweeney.
   Spencer Roane, son of Colonel William Roane by his first wife, was born in Essex County, 4 April, 1762. His first wife  was Anne, daughter of Patrick Henry; he married second, a daughter of Colonel Hoskins,  of KIng and Queen County. By her he had a daughter who married Governor McDonald, of Georgia, afterwards Chief Justice of that State. He attended William and Mary College, and was one of the founders of the Phi Beta Kappa Society. "He studied law with George Wythe, and also in Philadelphia, after which he was a member successively of the Virginia Assembly, Council and Senate. He was appointed a Judge in 1789 of the General Court, and in 1794 of the Court of Errors." After the death of Judge Pendleton, he universally ranked as the ablest member of that court. He was twice one of the persons appointed to revise the laws of the State and several times Presidential elector.. "Mr. Jefferson it is said wished him to run as Vice-President under Mr. Crawford with the view that he might succeed the latter as President. But Mr. Crawford's ill health and Roane's death prevented the event." In 1819, he was one of the commissioners for locating the University of Virginia. "Judge Roane was a Jeffersonian Republican , and wrote several essays under the name of 'Algernon Sidney', asserting the supremacy of a State in a question of conflicting authority between Virginia and the United States, which were published in the Richmond Enquirer'." He died in Sharon Springs, Virginia. September 4, 1822,. The county of Roane, West Virginia, and Spencer, it's county seat, were named in his honor.
   Hi son, William Harrison Roane, by his first wife, Anne Henry, was born 1788 and died 1845. Like his father he studied at William and Mary College. He was a Representative in Congress, 1815-1817, and United States Senator, 1837-1841. "He had a decided dash of the eloquence  of his grandfather (Patrick Henry), and was filled with the pecularities of the Roanes, high spirited, soft hearted, strong minded, generous, impulsive, but with all their rough traits softened down by a more extended intercourse with the world." He married, Martha Bland Seldon, born January 15, 1786, daughter of Col. Miles and Elizabeth (Armistead) Selden. ("William & Mary College Quarterly", VII, 51 and XVIII, 277; Kennedy: "Seldens of Virginia", p. 125). (Source: William & Mary College Quarterly; 2nd series, Vol 18, no. 2, Jan 1938; page 89, 90).

William Roane Jr. and Ann Cooke were married (living) 1758 in Virginia. Ann Cooke was born (living) 1733. She died (living) 1758. She was buried at an unknown cemetery.

36.  Mary "Molly" Roane was born circa 1738 in Essex Co, Virginia. She was buried at Ritchie family cemetery in Tappahannock, Essex Co, Virginia. 1. "The Upshaw Family of Essex", by Lenora Higginbotham Sweeney.
   4. Mary Roane, the fourth child of Captain William and Sarah (Upshaw) Roane, married Archibald Ritchie, a Scotch merchant who settled about the year 1749, in Tappahannock, the port of entry for all the surrounding country. "In this small village, as in few others in Colonial Virginia, there intermingled the best in the plantation life with the energy, initiative and sagacity of the Scotch tradesman." 
   December 19, 1749, George Gerrard, of Essex, planter, sold to Archibald Ritchie, three lots in Tappahannock numbered 45, 51 and 52. His wife, Diana, appeared in Essex Court and released her right of dower. (Deeds, etc., Book 25, 1749-1752, p. 84). He steadily acquired neighboring lands until he owned a handsome estate. About 1768, he erected the "Ritchie House", the only brick residence at that time in the Borough of Tappahannock, on the Rappahannock, in Virginia.
   Francis Jordone, of Yorktown, in a letter to Captain Hugh Crawford, in England, 21 August, 1753, writes: "Last week Mr. Archbd. Ritchie was married to a daughter of Capt.  Roan's, with whom he gets 500 pounds down, & as much at her father's death." ("William & Mary Coll. Quarterly, XI, 240).
   January 22, 1757, he was commissioned Captain of Essex County Militia, by his friend, Governor Robert Dinwiddie. James Webb, Gent., served in his Company as Lieutenant in the French & Indian War in 1757, and John Edmondson as Ensign in 1758.
   He was Treasurer of Essex County, 1765; Justice from 1757 to 1775, and in 1776 was appointed a member of the Essex County Committee of Safety.
   His Scotch canniness is shown by the fact that he erected a causeway through the low grounds adjoining Moore Fauntleroy, in Richmond County, and by his own private ferry enabled customers to come from Richmond to his store in Tappahannock. By an Act of the General Assembly passed in October, 1764, this ferry was established for public use and Capt. Ritchie was allowed to charge each person one shilling, three pence, and a horse at the same rate, "and in that proportion for transporting of carriages, cattle, and other things." These charges being considered excessive, they were changed by an Act of Assemble in 1766, to one sghilling per person and the same for horses, etc. (Hening: "Statutes", VIII, 46-47, 194-195).
   Ambler, in his "Life of Thomas Ritchie", says: "Archibald Ritchie violated the association of 1774, entered into to prohibit the importation of British goods into Virginia, and incurred the enmity of Richard Henry Lee who had raised a mob to destroy his business." It would be interesting to learn whether the force crosses at the ferry and the leader
                                                       
                                                           "Cries, 'Boatman, do not tarry!
                                                           And I'll give thee a silver pound,
                                                           To row us o'er the ferry' " ---

   It may be that Mrs. Ritchie persuaded him to apologize to the Governor or else he heard the Whigs singing the patriotic refrain of Essex:
 "When side by side, Col. Will Roane tied a negro and a Tory."  

   Be that as it may, it is recorded that his apology was accepted by Patrick Henry, the Governor. Ever afterwards Captain Archibald Ritchie was satisfied to sell American merchandise and even furnished gunpowder with which to fight the British.
   From the diary of Colonel Landon Cartter, of "Sabine Hall," Richmond County, we learn that he enjoyed the friendship of Colonel Carter, and with his brothers-in-law Dr. John and Colonel Moore Fauntleroy Brockenbrough were frequent guests of Colonel John Tayloe at his beautiful home, "Mount Airy."
   At October Court, 1779, Archibald Ritchie made oath that he had imported from London in the ship "Charming Molly," in July, 1764, eighty-three indentured servants and in the same ship in 1765, twenty-six indentured servants. (Order Book 29, pp. 449-450).
    His will, dated September 18, 1782, was recorded in Essex County Will Book 13,, pp. 415-417, April 20, 1784.
   (Source: William & Mary College Quarterly; 2nd series, Vol 18, no. 2, Jan 1938; page 90-91).

Mary "Molly" Roane and Archibald Ritchie Sr. were married circa 1758 in Virginia. Archibald Ritchie Sr. was born circa 1738 in Virginia. He died in Apr 1784 at the age of 46 in Essex Co, Virginia. He was buried at Ritchie family cemetery in Tappahannock, Essex Co, Virginia. 1. (Source: Derieux, Suzanne P. & Wesley E. Pippenger, Essex County, Virginia Cemeteries Volume 2 -Tappahannock  Cemeteries (Tappahannock, VA: privately printed, 2012), page 154:
   page 154) Ritchie Family cemetery (Site). In 1768, Archibald Ritchie acquired the entire block of Town Lots 17, 18, 21 and 22, where he lived until his death. An 1811 deed from John Temple to George W. Banks and Tunstall Banks, reserved the Ritchie family burial vault area “38 feet east, 15 feet north and 30 feet west.” The cemetery was located on either Town Lot 18 or 22.  This was behind what was then known as the Farmer’s Hotel, and later the Union Hotel. The Essex Florist shop may have been built on or near
the site. The Ritchie family burial vault is mentioned in two accounts of depredations by British soldiers during the War of 1812. In 1814, a newspaper article described that the vault door has been forced, and five coffins out of nine had been broken to pieces and the skeletons lay exposed to the gaze of any who chanced to look in. Also that year, it was noted:
   Scarcely a house of any distinction in the town escaped robbery or dilapidation,  this was not all; they entered the family vault of Col. Ritchie, and with unholy hands disturbed the ashes of the dead; five out of nine coffins were opened and their mouldering contents mutilated, and left exposed; the escutcheons torn from their places and flung out; this was done with the pretence of searching for 	treasure …
   In a letter from Austin Brockenbrough on 10 Apr 1854, to Thomas Ritchie, he notifies the family that the state of the vault, the wooden cover to it, has entirely decayed & nearly all blown off by winds. The brick work including the arch is still in state of some preservation, but a recent leak at top threatens a speedy chasm. Brockenbrough recommended it was best to cover the remains with earth and sod it over with decency.
   As late as 1900 one could find quantities of white marble fragments scattered about. In the 1920s, a commercial building was built on the site that was later used as a florist shop and a thrift store. No grave markers have been found.
   Nine burials, that may have included:
      Ritchie, Mary Roane, d. 1803, daughter of William Roane and Sarah Upshaw, wife of Archibald.
      Ritchie, Archibald, d. by 20 Apr 1784.
      Ritchie, Mary, daughter of Archibald Ritchie and Mary Roane, b. 1760s, d. before 1803.
      Ritchie, William, son of Archibald Ritchie and Mary Roane, b. 1750s, d. Fall 1797.

Ulster Co,., N.Y., 1756; d. 1836; m. Blandina Elmendorf), fifth in descent from Capt. Daniel Broadhead, who came to America as a "Captain of Musketeers", in  Colonel Nicholls' expedition against the New Netherlands. ("Virginia Magazine of History", XXIV, 1ii). (b. October 31, 1793) who migrated from Ulster County, New York, to Kentucky, in 1820, and settled at Frankfort where he became one of the leading lawyers of the State.
   A son, Lucas Broadhead, Jr., "in appearance, he was the beau-ideal of the 'gallant Kentuckian' - of commanding presence and gracious manners, possessing the indescribable 'bel air' of the born aristocrat, yet, withal, what is commonly known in these latter days as 'a good mixer' with all sorts and conditions of men. He had little more than rounded out his 'three score years and ten' when he fell quietly asleep at 'Oaklee,' his country home in Woodford County, Kentucky, October 1, 1914." ("Va.

   RICHARD G. TERRELL. Richard G. Terrell, wholesale grocer of Paducah, Kentucky,  was born in Ballard county, Kentucky, April 14, 1844. His parents were Thomas F. and Mary (Fletcher) Terrell. His paternal grandfather was Chiles Terrell, a practical surveyor,  who came from Virginia to McCracken county, Kentucky, as early as 1826, with his son J.H. Terrell, then eleven years of age, and surveyed a large portion  of the land in said county. Chiles Terrell was no ordinary man. He was highly educated. After doing the above mentioned surveying he returned to Virginia, and in the year 1827 he removed to Louisville, Kentucky, and in 1828 was professor of Mathematics in the Jefferson Seminary. He came to McCracken county in 1839, and died here in 1851, aged seventy-one years. He married Mary C. Upshaw, who died in 1836. Their son, Thomas F. Terrell, was born in Richmond, Virginia, but was reared on a farm in Jefferson and McCracken counties, Kentucky in both of which counties his father farmed in his latter days. Thomas F. Terrell was born January 13, 1820. When twenty-three years of age he married and settled in Ballard county, of which county he served as sheriff, and which he afterward represented in the legislature. In 1856 he removed to Paducah and there became a prominent business man and esteemed citizen. Richard G. Terrell was educated in Paducah and at the Washington and Lee University of Virginia. In 1868, in connection with W.H. Bradley, he embarked in the produce and seed business in Paducah, and four years later succeeded to the ownership of the entire business. His business gradually increased, agricultural implements were added  and then groceries, and today he ranks among the leading wholesale grocers of Kentucky. In 1873 Mr. Terrell married Miss Mildred, daughter of Colonel Thomas J. Pickett.  In his home and domestic relations Mr. Terrell is a beloved husband and father, among business men he is esteemed for his sapient business qualities,  and by his fellow citizens he is held in high regard in consequence of his genial deportment and real worth a s a progressive and public-spirited citizen.

    The prisoner Leroy Upshaw was indicted for falsely altering and passing to one John Gresham, two counterfeit guineas, of base metal, of the likeness and similitude of English guineas; knowing them to be base and counterfeit as aforesaid, contrary to an Act of the General Assembly.
   At the trial of this case the aforesaid John Gresham, produced in court two guineas which had every appearance of base metal, and the said Gresham being examined on oath sayeth, that he received the two guineas aforesaid of the prisoner with four others which were good, in discharge of a debt; that sometime after he informed the prisoner that the two guineas were counterfeit; when the prisoner told him that if they were he did not know it and that he would pay him other money for them; ten or twelve days after the prisoner came again to his house, and informed him he had part of the money to redeem the two guineas that were supposed to be counterfeit, which he refused to receive until he could pay him the whole; at another time, after he had obtained a warrant against the prisoner, he, the prisoner, applied to pay him other money for the two guineas, but he refused to receive it. It further appeared that some short time before Upshaw paid the money to Gresham, he had received in Virginia a considerable sum of money in gold, and at the time of payment produced to Mr. Gresham a number of guineas, out of which he took such as he liked, and weighed them himself. The jury found the prisoner not guilty.

   The appellees, (the complainants in the Court of Chancery,) are the three children of Forest Upshaw named in the codicil to William Upshaw's will, and were brothers and sisters, of the half blood of John Hunt. In March, 1797, they filed their bill in the High Court of Chancery, against Elizabeth Upshaw, stating the above facts, claiming a discovery of those slaves, and asserting a title to them and their profits, on the ground that the title in remainder in the said slaves after the death of Ann Upshaw either vested in William Upshaw, or, being devised away by him, ought not now to be claimed by his widow, who under his will had held property of greater value and received the profits thereof for more than twenty-five years, and thereby, as well as by the contract since made with the other legatees of William Upshaw, had made her election to submit to his will.
   The appellees, Le Roy Upshaw and others, claim under the will of John Hunt alone.

EXCURSUS NOTES:

1. The following items are communicated from an Upshaw family researcher in 2010 regarding Leroy Upshaw, son of Forrester and are presented here verbatim (although slightly edited for clarity) as a matter of interesting consideration. I am yet unconvinced that the preponderance of the evidence of the lineage as I have it is not correct; see the "Excursus response" following -  (TOB, December 2013):
   
(Contrary note dated Friday, September 10, 2010):
   I took notice many years ago of the Leroy Upshaw who married Milly Scott on 4 November 1805 in Halifax County, Virginia and supposed that he was from one of the Upshaw branches that remained in Virginia. Of course, I was wrong. After working for the past ten or fifteen years on various families, I recently returned to a consideration of my ancestors Leroy Upshaw (ca 1740/45-ca. 1798) and Elizabeth Bradley because of various connections with other families of current interest to me. Only a few days ago did I find your impressive list of documents about Leroy and Elizabeth  on your website, some of which I had not seen previously. But, from your abstracts, I am pondering a somewhat different scenario. 
   It seems to me now that Leroy Upshaw Jr. (ca. 1775-after 1826 [probably]) was the one who returned from Georgia to Virginia, as he was charting a new life for himself following the death of his father. Leroy Jr., as heir-at-law, was undoubtedly aware  of the legal action of March 1797 in Virginia by the attorney representing the father Leroy, Sr., the uncle, John Upshaw and the aunt, Mildred (Upshaw) Burnett. After Mrs. Ann Hunt Upshaw died in 1796, these three children of Forrest Upshaw "and their heirs forever," who were bequeathed slaves in a codicil to the will of William Upshaw (1761), sought judicial relief to compel William's widow Elizabeth Upshaw, the daughter-in-law of Mrs. Ann Hunt Upshaw, to surrender the slaves and/or their progeny. The attorney for the three filed the brief in February 1797 with the Virginia Court of Chancery where the judge ruled against the defendant on 3 June 1803. The issues were strictly matters of law and not of fact. To seek relief before a chancery court, or court of equity, is a strategy that precludes a jury trial. After reading the briefs of the attorneys and hearing their arguments, the judge can grant three remedies: (1) specific performance, (2) injunction, or (3) damages. The long opinion by the judge was strictly his judicial finding for specific performance. There was no need for John or Leroy Sr. or his heir-at law, Leroy Jr., to be in Virginia at all. The ruling against the position of Elizabeth's attorney was probably one factor in the decision of Leroy, Jr. to leave subsequently for Virginia. The Jeremiah Burnett who gave the power of attorney to Leroy Upshaw in Lunenburg County on 4 February 1806 was his uncle-in-law, the husband of Leroy's and Aunt Mildred ("Milly") Upshaw. The appeal by Elizabeth to the Supreme Court of Virginia against this decision in favor of the three original plaintiffs  "and their heirs forever" had mixed results. Much of the reasoning of the Chancery Judge was sustained, although "a just and reasonable allowance" for Elizabeth was ordered in June 1807. She had, after all, cared for the slaves since the death of the mother-in-law.
   For a time, it seemed to me that Leroy Upshaw, Sr. last appeared in the Elbert County deed books on 27 March 1797 as a witness to a conveyance by my ancestor Beverly Greenwood to his brother George Greenwood, the brother-in-law of Leroy Jr. But the witness must have been Leroy Jr., as Leroy Sr., his father, was in jail at that time. Until I studied your documents, I had not realized that the State of Georgia had put Leroy Sr. through such an ordeal in 1797. I wonder if that experience, involving several months of imprisonment, before a jury found him innocent in June 1797, did not cut short his life. If so, understandably, his widow was treated most generously in her father's will of 1799. It was almost unheard of for a woman to inherit land from her father if the husband were still alive, and the will states that she was even living on the devised property when her father signed the will. In fact, the absence of any deeds of Leroy, Sr. after the removal to Georgia makes me wonder of he and Elizabeth had not been living on his father-in-law's property all along. I think Leroy, Sr. probably died before 12 January 1799 when she alone testified with regard to the Bradley family claims against the estate of James Stovall whose widow Mary was the sister of Mrs. Elizabeth (Bradley) Upshaw.
   The six lawsuits that you cite against Leroy Upshaw between January 1800 and April 1803 were, by my calculation, suits against Leroy, Jr. - one or two of them probably against him as heir-at-law and involving claims against the estate of the deceased. The first plaintiff (1 January 1800) was John Lawless (circa 1760-1831), whose daughter Tabitha Lawless would marry John Upshaw, the nephew of Leroy Jr. John Lawless was the brother of my ancestor Henry Loyless, the name changed by his step father John Burkhalter. The second plaintiff (18 August 1801) was Leroy's brother-in-law John Staples (1757-1837) who married Leroy's sister, Elizabeth Upshaw (1770-1857), whereupon Leroy Jr. retaliated with his own suit  of 19 September 1801 against Staples. The third plaintiff Middleton Woods sued both Leroy and his brother Parson Upshaw (ca. 1775-before 1830) in the same action of 27 September 1801. The fourth plaintiff, the merchant Reubin Lindsay sued Leroy on 12 February 1802, as he had a claim against the estate of Leroy Upshaw, Sr. as his name appeared in the account book that you cite. Finally, in February 1803, Robert Thompson brought a suit against Leroy Upshaw Jr. and his brother-in-law George Greenwood (ca. 1765-1834), the brother of my ancestor  Beverly Greenwood (ca. 1770-1823), whose granddaughter Mary Word Greenwood married Judge Redding Jefferson Loyless, son of the afore mentioned Henry Loyless and wife Lavina Carter. Of course, George Greenwood (ca. 1765-1834) married one of the oldest siblings of Leroy, Jr.; namely, Martha Upshaw (ca. 1767-after 1860), whereas Beverly Greenwood (ca. 1770-1823) married Martha's sister Nancy. Incidentally, Martha last appeared in the home of her son Carter Greenwood in the census of 1860 for Franklin County, Illinois, at age 93. 
   As for Elizabeth Bradley Upshaw, certainly no evidence of a divorce has ever surfaced. Would Leroy, Sr. have abandoned her and committed bigamy? She was probably the much older lady counted in the household of her son Peter Upshaw (ca. 1785/90-1841) in the census of 1810 for the Pendleton District of South Carolina, and following the removal to Tennessee, she was listed as age 70-79 again in the household of Peter in the census of 1830 for Monroe County, Tennessee. Her son Parson Upshaw last appeared in the census for Montgomery County, Tennessee, in 1820 adjacent to her son-in-law George Greenwood. Her daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth Staples died in Morgan County, Tennessee, in 1857. The last clear record of her son Leroy Upshaw Jr. may have been the one in the Lunenburg County Order Book, where noted was his suit of 16 March 1814 against his cousin Philip Burnett. Leroy also evidently moved to Tennessee; you note the deed in Carter County that refers to the land of a "Leroy Upshall" (sic). I cannot explain why he does not appear anywhere in the census of 1820. (TOB note: the 1820 censuses of the eastern portion of Tennessee are not extant). The only Leroy Upshaw to appear in any jurisdiction in the census of 1820 was his first cousin in Georgia, the son of John Upshaw. I have not pursued the matter thoroughly, but I would have to agree with those who have Permelia Ann (daughter of Leroy Jr. and Milly Scott) marrying (1) Andrew Bradley in Carter County on 25 December 1823 and (2) Jesse Rhea, as his second wife, on 16 June 1852, in Monroe County, Tennessee where her uncle Peter and his grandmother last appeared in the census of 1830. 
The foregoing thesis is hypothetical, but I would be very interested in knowing how well other may perceive this as fitting the known facts.  

(Contrary note dated Monday, September 13, 2010):
   Concerning Mr. Elizabeth Bradley Upshaw; in the  1810 census for Pendleton District, South Carolina: Peter Upshaw, his wife, and his mother, I believe, were living near his brother-in-law Beverly Greenwood on pages 206 & 208. After the removal to Tennessee, Peter took as his second wife, Jane Fields in Roane County on 16 January 1817. As I have indicated, I think his mother, age 70-80, was still in his household in the 1830 census for Monroe County (Regiment) 98. Also in Regiment 98 was Elizabeth's daughter-in-law and the widow of Leroy Upshaw Jr., i.e., Millie Scott Upshaw, age 50-60, who was in the household of Elizabeth's grandson-in-law Andrew Bradley and who, before the 1840 census, married a neighbor James Gray. After Peter left for Louisiana after 1830, I believe his mother Elizabeth may have been the lady, age 70-80 (sic?) living, according to the 1840 census of Monroe County, in the household of the aforementioned James Gray, the second husband of Mrs. Millie Scott Upshaw and located adjacent to Permelia Upshaw Bradley, whose husband had died. Elizabeth died after 1840. Her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Millie Scott Upshaw Gray, whose second husband died after 1840 was living in the home of Elizabeth's granddaughter Permelia Upshaw Bradley, according to the 1850 census.

(Contrary note dated Saturday, November 20, 2010):
   The lack of any estate papers confirming Leroy Upshaw's death  ca. 1798 should seem no less troublesome than the lack of evidence of a divorce that would have freed him from a charge of bigamy, a crime that brought the death penalty in Virginia until 1855. Moreover, it is difficult for me to believe that Milly Scott would have married an old man at least thirty years her senior. The detailed record of those suits against Leroy Upshaw from 1800 to 1803 might indeed reveal that, in some of those actions, Leroy Jr. was being sued as an "heir at law." Another point is apropos: you indicate in your synopsis of the Elbert documents that the Leroy Upshaw in the account book of the "lunatic" Reuben Lindsay could not have been Leroy Upshaw Sr. but must have been Leroy, the son of John, which was in July 1809. In reviewing Farmer, pp. 80-93, it becomes clear that the court action in July 1809 involved a petition by the wife of the lunatic for him to be recognized as incompetent to handle the family affairs. Part of the evidence placed by the court clerk in the Lindsay file at that time included an account book with the entries dating back probably to the 1790s. Included in the account book were BOTH Leroy Upshaw SR." (page 89) and "Leroy Upshaw JR." (page 91). Of course, the Lindsay's wife was out of luck on those two claims because I still believe that one Leroy was dead and the other outside the Georgia jurisdiction. Six years earlier (April 1803) Lindsay had indeed sued the surviving Leroy Upshaw; no action is indicated because Upshaw had probably just left for Virginia. Finally, the Inferior Court execution of 21 February 1803 was against George Greenwood and his brother-in-law, Leroy Jr. The sheriffs of Elbert County must not have been the sharpest blades in the drawer. The levy against these two had to be revived in January 1809, January 1810 and October 1811 (Farmer, page 172). Leroy was in Virginia and the Census for 1810 for the old Pendleton District of South Carolina shows that George Greenwood (page 10), his brother and my ancestor Beverly Greenwood (page 9) and the Greenwood's brothers-in-law Drury and Peter Upshaw (page 11) were no longer in Georgia , and the Upshaws' mother Elizabeth (also George's and Beverly's mother-in-law) was living with Peter Upshaw. George Greenwood "of Pendleton County, S.C." sold his lands in Elbert County  in October 1814 (Farmer, p. 243), probably not long before the removal to Tennessee.

EXCURSUS RESPONSE - (by Ted Brooke, December 2013):
   I have given below what I consider the vital points of this matter. Barring discovery of yet undiscovered source documents, which is highly unlikely, this will be decided by the preponderance of the evidence we have.  
   The contrary excursus theory above is largely constructed upon a fatal disconnect in that it fails to recognize the Leroy Upshaw who was born in Virginia in 1788 and was found in the census of Butler County, Alabama in 1830, 1840 & 1850. It is documented that Leroy Upshaw (Sr.) was in Buckingham Co. tax list in 1788. Leroy, born 1788, was not a son of John Upshaw (1755-1834), who already had a son Leroy, born 1785 who is well documented. Leroy, born 1788, neither was not a son of Forrester, the first son of Leroy (Sr.) who was born about 1772 and, although we don't have his documented marriage date, Forrester was only about 16 years old in 1788 which is unreasonably young for fatherhood; furthermore, his youngest child, Forest Tinsley Upshaw, was born in 1796, eight years after 1788. 
The only possibility is that Leroy Upshaw, born in 1788 and lived from at least 1830 until after 1850 in Butler County, Alabama, is Leroy Upshaw Jr., the son of Capt. Leroy Upshaw Sr. The salient points are as follows:

1. If we accept, as theorized above, that Leroy Upshaw Sr. died "before January 1799", then it is remarkable and unreasonable to consider that, although all - ALL - the Elbert County probate records are extant, including the original papers, there is not a single reference to any estate for him (at any time) - no guardianship bond or assignment, although he would've had at least four minor children at that time (1799), specifically, Martha, Drury, Leroy Jr. & Peter. Furthermore, there is no will or administration, no administrators bond or letters or estate returns; there is nothing that I know of and I have searched the records extensively.

2. If we accept, as theorized above, that it was Leroy Upshaw Jr. (son of Leroy Sr.) who appeared in the various records in Georgia, Virginia & Carter Co., Tennessee, subsequent to 1799, then he was deceased between 1826 and 1830 as he is not in the 1830 census. Milly (Scott) Upshaw was definitely remarried to James Gray. So, then, who is the Leroy Upshaw (born 1788), married to a "Catherine" in 1830, 1840 & 1850 Butler Co., Alabama? There is no plausible explanation, except that this must be the son of Leroy Sr. and thus, Leroy Upshaw Jr. was not the Leroy Upshaw, the husband of Milly Scott who'd deceased between 1826 and 1830.

3. The theory that the Leroy Upshaw involved in the Virginia lawsuit to recover the personal property (willed to the three children of Forrest Upshaw by William Upshaw in his codicil of 1761) was the son of Leroy Upshaw Sr. and was acting as a "heir at law" is unsupported by any documentation whatsoever. At the commencement of this suit in 1797, Leroy Jr. was only about nine years old and not of legal status. Furthermore, if that were the case, ALL, not one, of the heirs of Leroy Upshaw Sr. would have to be named; there is no legal document known to me that stipulates any such condition that only one of the heirs could be the sole representative of all the heirs.

4. As far as the Leroy Upshaw, witness to the 27 March 1797 deed being Leroy Jr., aside from the fact that Leroy Jr. was only nine years old at that time, "as Leroy Sr., his father, was in jail at that time", is not true. The deed from Beverly Greenwood to George Greenwood that Leroy witnessed was on 27 March 1797 and he was indicted three days later, on 30 March 1797 and was tried and found not guilty and thus released only two days later, on 1 April 1797, so his imprisonment was only two days.  

5. There were only two contemporary persons named Leroy Upshaw, as follows:
(1) Leroy born 1785, son of John Upshaw of Elbert County. This Leroy is well documented in Elbert County, Georgia, and later, Barbour County, Alabama, where he consistently lived. He married Prudence Richardson in 1814 and is conclusively documented. 
(2) Leroy born 1788 in Virginia, who was in Butler County, Alabama, in the 1830, 1840 & 1850 censuses. This Leroy is excluded from consideration as being the Leroy in the post 1799 records simply because of his age, among other reasons. Being born in 1788, he would not be of the legal age of 18 until 1806, so those actions had to involve his father, Leroy Sr. who had to be, of course, still in life at that time.

6. The six lawsuits against Leroy Upshaw in Elbert County between January 1800 and April 1803 would've definitely been against Leroy Sr., as Leroy Jr. was born about 1788 and would not have had legal status until about 1806.

7. The case dated 29 June 1807 in the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia (see "Virginia Reports", Vol. 2, pp. 381-394), specifically states that "the appellees are the three children of Forest Upshaw ...". There is no mention of any "heir at law" or anyone other than the three children of Forest Upshaw: Leroy, John & Mildred.

8. Concerning the comment above "As for Elizabeth Bradley Upshaw, certainly no evidence of a divorce has ever surfaced. Would Leroy, Sr. have abandoned her and committed bigamy?" From our vantage point of over two hundred years removed from the occurrence, lacking any specific documentary evidence, we can only consider the facts we have. It is true that there has been no divorce in Georgia between Leroy Upshaw and Elizabeth Bradley. Georgia began allowing divorces in 1793 and the petitions for divorce were always filed in the Superior Court of the county where the couple resided. Until 1833, after two assenting jury trials in the Superior Court, couples were also required to obtain the consent of the Georgia legislature to obtain a divorce. The divorce records in Acts of the Georgia legislature from 1793 to 1868, the Elbert County Superior Court minutes from 1793, and newspaper abstracts for the period, which are all extant, have been researched for any and all Upshaw references and no reference to Leroy or Elizabeth has been found. There is no record of a divorce between them, because there was no divorce. We do know that Leroy Sr. was having multiple legal problems in Elbert County and the promise of a large inheritance back in Virginia would have obviously been inviting to him. 

9. I believe there is merit in the possibility that Leroy's wife, Elizabeth (Bradley) Upshaw, was in the household of Peter Upshaw in the 1810 census of Pendleton District, South Carolina and in the 1830 census of Monroe County, Tennessee. She seems to have been in Elbert County in 1818 when she gave her final receipt of her father's estate. This is credible and needs further research.

10. Regarding the Lindsay account book in Elbert County, the individual accounts would've pre-dated the 1809 date of the action, although the exact original dates of the notes are unknown, it is documented that the due dates of the notes was in 1803. It is quite notable that BOTH "Leroy Upshaw Sr." AND "Leroy Upshaw Junr." are named in Elbert County Superior Court Miscellaneous Records book, 1809-1845, pages 38 & 53; the customary usage of these terms is in distinguishing between father & son and thus, neither of these men were the son of John Upshaw of Elbert County.  

Capt. Leroy Upshaw Sr. and Elizabeth Bradley were married on 24 Oct 1769 in Bedford Co, Virginia. Elizabeth Bradley, daughter of William Bradley and Elizabeth Christian, was born circa 1751 in Virginia. She lived in Elbert Co, Georgia from 1790 to 1818. She died after 1818 at the age of 67 in Elbert? Co, Georgia. Elizabeth was buried at an unknown cemetery in Elbert? Co, Georgia.

(This indicates that her husband, Leroy Upshaw, may not have been present at this time and, in fact, he was not present). (Source: Elbert Co, GA, will book 2, page 178; abstracted in Fred W.

COMMENTS:

1. Contrary to DAR records (various membership applications), Elizabeth Bradley was NOT married to anyone prior to her marriage to Leroy Upshaw in 1769, Bedford Co. That marriage bond is of record in Bedford Co., Va., and it gives her name as Elizabeth BRADLEY, stipulating "spinster".  DAR records have erroneously stated for many years that she was first married to a "Hugh Greenwood" although no proof was given and, if that were so, her name in 1769 at her marriage to Leroy Upshaw would not be given as Bradley but Greenwood, nor would the bond stipulate "spinster".

2. Elizabeth (Bradley) Upshaw is not found in the Elbert County Cemetery book by the Elbert Co. Historical Society. 
  
3. Elizabeth (Bradley) Upshaw may have been the female age "over 45" in the household of Peter Upshaw, 1810 Pendleton Dist., South Carolina, page 208: 1 male 16-26 (Peter); 2 females 10-16 (unknown, but not his children). 1 female 16-26 (unknown, but apparently his first wife, name unknown, not old enough to be the mother of the two females 10-16, above); 1 female over 45 (unknown, but perhaps his mother or mother-in-law?)
   Furthermore, she may have been the female age 70-80 in the household of Peter Upshaw in the 1830 census, Monroe Co, Regiment 98, TN, page 137, Peter Upshaw household: 1 male 40-50 (Peter); 2 females under 5 (Nelly & Nancy, twins); 3 females 5-10 (Sarah, Elizabeth, & unknown); 1 female 10-15 (Mary); 1 female 20-30 (2nd wife, Jane ("Jinsey") (Fields)  Upshaw); 1 female 70-80 (unknown, but perhaps his mother or mother-in-law; see 1810 Pendleton Dist, SC)

Capt. Leroy Upshaw Sr. and Milly Scott were married on 4 Nov 1805 in Halifax Co, Virginia. Milly Scott, daughter of _____ Scott, was born circa 1780 in Halifax Co, Virginia. She lived in Carter Co, Tennessee from 1823 to 1826. She died circa 1885 at the age of 105 in Monroe Co, Tennessee. Milly was buried at an unknown cemetery in Monroe Co, Tennessee. 1. 1805 Halifax Co, VA, marriage bond book 1, page 61: Married to Leroy Upshaw.

COMMENTS: 

1. The National Archives has no pension application for Milly Gray and/or James Gray for Revolutionary War service; War of 1812 & Indian War pensions not searched.

2. As Leroy Upshaw was about 55 years old when he married Milly Scott in 1805, she was may have been older as well, although her census records are inconsistent and confusing and, if so, may have been a widow in 1805; further research in Halifax Co, VA, circa 1805, is needed.

Leroy Upshaw and Milly Scott had the following child:

	+163	i.	Amelia "Permelia" Upshaw, born 1807–1808, Lunenburg Co, Virginia; married Andrew Bradley, 25 Dec 1823, Carter Co, Tennessee; married Jesse Rhea, 16 Jun 1852, Monroe Co, Tennessee; died 1870–1880, Monroe Co?, Tennessee.

He died in Oct 1813 at the age of 75 in Lunenburg Co, Virginia. He was buried at an unknown cemetery in Lunenburg Co, Virginia. 
DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. Miscellaneous Burnett family notes, by Mrs. June Bork, Huntington Beach, CA 1976 (see UFJ, Vol. 4 page 96).
   Jeremiah Burnett, husband of Mildred Upshaw, died in Lunenburg County, Virginia, in 1812, when his will is recorded. The deed records have been searched up to 1825 and Mildred was alive at that time (see Deed Book 26, page 459). in Lunenburg County. I have no further record of her, but I am sure she died there (Note: see Mildred Burnett will, Lunenburg County Will Book 11, pages 338, 339). I have made no connection between the Patrick County, Virginia, and Wayne County, Kentucky, Burnetts with the Lunenburg County group. I do know that of Jeremiah Burnett, of Lunenburg, his cousins went to Spartanburg County, South Carolina, where the Hurts were. These Hurts did settle in Wayne County, Kentucky. Jeremiah lived in Mecklenburg County, Virginia, before moving to Lunenburg County, so there may be a marriage record there of Jeremiah to Mildred Upshaw.
   Jeremiah Burnett was a son of Joseph Burnett who died in 1771 in Essex County, Virginia, giving him a number of slaves. Joseph Burnett died intestate and his son Richard was his administrator. Joseph had land in Essex, Caroline and Dinwiddie counties and had sold land in Amelia in 1762 to David Eubanks. Joseph's estate was not settled until 1784, some 11 years after he died. His widow, Clara (Gatewood) Burnett, was still living at this time. His children were: Jeremiah, who married Mildred Upshaw; Joseph (no further record); Thomas; Rachel Burnett, who married Benjamin Gatewood; Clara Burnett, who married John or Henry Gatewood; Leonard, who married Amy Gatewood; and Richard who married Mary Baughan.
   Concerning the Burnett-Hurt family connections, we find that a John Burnett married Mary H. Hurt on 22 November 1821 in Lunenburg County, Virginia; bondsman was Allen Hurt.

2. 1810 Census, Lunenburg Co., Virginia: The only Jeremiah Burnett found in 1810 census indexes is in 1810 Edgefield Co., SC, who could be him: 1810 Edgefield Co, SC, page 14: Jeremiah Burnett, 2 males 0-9; 2 males 10-15; 2 males 16-25; 1 male over 45; 1 female 0-9; 1 female 16-25; 1 female over 45.  

3. 1812, 18 December: Jeremiah Burnett will, Lunenburg Co., Virginia, dated 18 Dec 1812, proven 11 November 1813:
  In the name of God amen. I Jeremiah Burnett of the County of Lunenburg do make and ordain this my last Will & Testament in manner and form following (to wit).

   On other occasions the match was viewed as foolhardy. Benjamin Pope Weeks' guardian was frank about his evaluation of his ward's impending marriage.
   Independence, Essex C[oun]ty, 16 Nov [17]96.
   Sir:
      I [rec'd] yours by B.F. Weeks relative to his going to be married to a Miss Smith which young lady I am totally unacquainted with. You say she has [1 word unclear] ten thousand weight of tobacco & nine or ten negroes [1 word unclear] [very] valuable & the young lady [is] industrious &c &c. It's my opinion from her character that she must be a great match for Pope tho am also of opinion that it is a thing he ought not to have thought of for at least five, six, or seven years his [2 words unclear] very unsettled. It will not be in Pope's power to get possession of the small piece of land he owns in Essex until he arrives to the age of twenty years as it's rented until that period & how he's to go to house [1 word unclear] God only knows. It must take a considerable sum of money to do that at least 150 pounds ye estate still [1 word unclear] [a judgment] award against it not long since for at least 100 pounds.I cannot pretend to be [as] good a judge of this matter as Pope's relations & friends your side of the river therefore I have no objections to the Cl[er]k of Westmoreland granting him license to be married whenever he may them. It is my opinion should he get married that he and his wife better board for a year or two with their relations.
      [Your] [1 word unclear], (signed) Jas. Upshaw as guardian to B.P. Weeks.

1. Recorded in the Parish Register of Christ Church, Middlesax County, is the birth of Charles Blake, son of Benjamin and Frances Blake on November 21, 1778. (Register of Christ Church, p. 282) This record agrees with the Bible record of Charles Blake which also records the birth of his wife, Mary, on July 14, 1774. Charles Blake and Mary, his wife, were married April 8,  1802.
   In 1820, Charles Blake, then a resident of Gloucester County inherited from Joel Foster 279 acres of land in Mathews County. Thus, it would appear that Mary, the wife of Charles Blake,  was a daughter of Joel Foster who had married Mary Diggs. This assumption is further borne out by the use of both the Diggs and Foster names  in subsequent generations of the Blake family.
   The Foster property in Mathews County, in which Charles Blake inherited a life interest,  was called "Oakland." Located on the North River, it was about six miles southwest of the courthouse. The residence apparently dates from 1797, as that is marked on one of the chimney bricks.
   The Blake Bible shows the death of Mary, the wife of Charles Blake, on September 29, 1836. Charles Blake died August 13, on September 29, 1836. Charles Blake died  August 13, 1842. Also recorded in the Bible is the record of the children of Charles and Mary Blake.
   1. Frances Blake, daughter of Charles and Mary Blake, was born June 15, 1802, and died September 1804.
   2. Joel Foster Blake was born February 17, 1806,  and died January 15, 1829.
   3. Mary Frances Blake was born June 23,  1808, married Samuel Diggs.
   4. Charles Henry Blake was born May 11,  1814. He was married on October 22, 1835, in King and Queen County, to Mary Ann Upshaw,  born July 27, 1811, daughter of Edwin Upshaw and Lucy Roane of "Newington" King and Queen County.
   On the death of their father, Charles Henry Blake and his sister, Mary Frances, inherited "Oakland." In 1843,  Charles sold his interest in the estate to his brother-in-law, Samuel Diggs. He appears to have left Mathews County that year as his name does not appear on the tax lists after that date. He removed to Blandville, Kentucky, and was in that state by March 16, 1844,  when his daughter, Mary Frances, was born.
   Charles Henry Blake and his family lived in Kentucky until after April 27, 1855, as the family record shows his daughter, Alice Upshaw Blake, was born in that state. He and his family removed to Dallas, Texas sometime before July 18, 1870, on which date his son Joel Foster Blake died.
   Mary Ann, wife of Charles Henry Blake, died March 22,1872, and Charles Henry Blake died July 3, 1895. Both were interred in the cemetery at Granbury, Texas, and both graves are marked.
   The children of Charles Henry Blake and Mary Ann, his wife,  as recorded in the Blake Bible were:
   1. Charles Edwin Blake born August 30, 1836, died August 30, 1842.
   2. Joel Foster Blake born November 1, 1838 in Virginia and died July 18, 1870 in Texas.
   3. Thomas Roane Blake born February 1, 1841 in Virginia.
   4. Mary Frances Blake born March 16, 1844, Blandville, Kentucky.
   5. Samuel Diggs Blake born June 3,  1847, Blandville, Kentucky.
   6. Matha Catharine Blake born january 15, 1850, Blandville, Kentucky.
   7. Lucy  Roane Blake born August 12, 1852, Blandville, Kentucky.
   8. Alice Upshaw Blake, daughter of Charles Henry Blake and Mary Ann, his wife, was born April 27, 1855, in Blandville, Kentucky, and was married October 26, 1876, in Granbury, Texas to John Daniel Baker, born March 23, 1848 in Walker County, Alabama. John Daniel Baker died April 2, 1899, in Henrietta, Texas. His wife survived him many years and died in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, April 13, 1942.
   Three of the children of Alice Upshaw Blake and John Daniel Baker died unmarried. Charles Robert Baker  was born january 20,  1878, and died February 1908; Alice Ethel Baker was born June 29, 1881, died March 23, 1894; Joel Harris Baker, born May 1, 1885, died August 12, 1924.
    Mary Brockenbrough Baker, the only surviving child of John Daniel Baker and his wife, Alice Upshaw Blake, was born December 26, 1891,  in Dallas, Texas. She was married November 4, 1915, in Oklahoma City, to Joseph Grancke Rumsey, who died January 23, 1946.

   RICHARD G. TERRELL. Rchard G. Terrell, wholesale grocer of Paducah, Kentucky,  was born in Ballard county, Kentucky, April 14, 1844. His parents were Thomas F. and Mary (Fletcher) Terrell. His paternal grandfather was Chiles Terrell, a practical surveyor,  who came from Virginia to McCracken county, Kentucky,  as early as 1826, with his son J.H. Terrell, then eleven years of age, and surveyed a large portion  of the land in said county. Chiles Terrell was no ordinary man. He was highly educated. After doing the above mentioned surveying he returned to Virginia, and in the year 1827 he removed to Louisville, Kentucky, and in 1828 was professor of Mathematics in the Jefferson Seminary. He came to McCracken county in 1839, and died here in 1851, aged seventy-one years. He married Mary C. Upshaw, who died in 1836.  Their son, Thomas F. Terrell,  was born in Richmiond, Virginia, but was reared on a farm in Jefferson and McCracken counties, Kentucky in both of which counties his father farmed in his latter days. Thomas F. Terrell was born January 13, 1820. When twenty-three years of age he married and settled in Ballard county, of which county he served as sheriff, and which he afterward represented in the legislature. In 1856 he removed to Paducah and there became a prominent business man and esteemed citizen.  Richard G. Terrell was educated in Paducah and at the Washington and Lee University of Virginia. In 1868, in connection with W.H. Bradley, he embarked in the produce and seed business in paducah, and four years later succeeded to the ownership of the entire business. His business gradually increased, agricultural implements were added  and then groceries, and today he ranks among the leading wholesale grocers of Kentucky. In 1873 Mr. Terrell married Miss Mildred, daughter of Colonel Thomas J. Pickett.  In his home and domestic relations Mr. Terrell is a beloved husband and father, among business men he is esteemed for his sapient business qualities,  and by his fellow sitizens he is held in high regard in consequence of his genial deportment and real worth a s a progressive and public-spirited citizen.

COMMENTS: 

1. (1999) researcher: Dorothy K. (Staples) Wallace, 1619 Greenfield St., Pace, FL 32571-7320. She mentions that "Information comes from copies of pages of the Thomas Staples Family Bible, that were given to my family by a relative, Elsie Burkett, who did the research years ago". (I have asked her on 1-29-1999 for copies of these Bible pages - TOB).
   Dorothy Wallace mentions that the Bible gives the information that "John Staples & Betsey Upshaw were married by Greenberry or Greenberg Green, a Methodist preacher. (Note: "Elbert County, Georgia Deed Books A-J, 1791-1806" shows no reference to Greenberry Green, which may not be very unusual, as Methodist ministers in those times were "traveling" ministers.)

DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. 1770-1775: Birth date calculated from age as given in 1820 census of "45 & up" (prior to 1775) & that as given in 1830 census of age 50-60 (born 1770-1780), which taken together, narrows the birth range to 1770-1775. 

2. 1800-1825: "Ann Upshaw" listed among members of the first twenty five years (1800-1825) of the Fork of Broad River Baptist Church.
(Source: Fork of the Broad River Baptist Church; (printed in the Georgia Genealogist, County Records, Madison County Cemeteries, page 1):
   Founded July 1800, it is now known as the Carlton Baptist Church, Carlton, Madison Co., GA. The church was formed by persons living on both sides of the Broad River and its earliest location was in Oglethorpe County. At some later time the congregation moved northward across Broad River to a location just east of Carlton, GA, near the site of the graveyard. The roll of members during its first 25 years was determined from existing records and recollections of members at the time of the Church’s Centennial, July 22, 1900. This copy was contributed by Mr. Claude Stevens, of Elberton, GA., formerly of Carlton, a member of the church, and was taken from pages 313-14 of the Book of Minutes of the Carlton Baptist Church. .
   Notes by Mr. Stevens: The first minute book of the Fork of the Broad River Church was destroyed long before the congregation celebrated its centennial [in 1900]. The first extant minute book begins in 1813. 

3. 1807, 21 Dec:   
       Franklin Co, GA; 21 Dec. 1807, before Joel Yowel, J.P., of Franklin Co., appeared Ann Upshear (sic), wife of Forrester Upshear (sic), & rel. her dower rights. (signed) Ann (x) Upshaw. Wit: Joel Yowell, J.P. Rec. 24 Dec 1807. (Farmer, "Deed Books K-R", page 41-42; Source: Elbert County, GA, Deed Book K, page 234)..

4. 1820 census, Madison Co, GA, page 286 (Forrester Upshaw household): 1 female age 45 & up (born before 1775)

5. 1830 census, McMinn Co, TN, page 197 (Forrester Upshaw household): 1 female age 50-60 (born 1770-1780)

6. 1835, Jan:  "Anna Upshaw" joined Alpine Baptist Church, Talladega Co, AL, by letter (Casey W. Arnette, "The Tie that Binds, History of Alpine Baptist Church 1832-1988", Alpine Baptist Church, 1988), page 278.

7. 1836, April:  "Anna Upshaw" dismissed from Alpine Baptist Church, Talladega Co, AL, by letter (Casey W. Arnette, "The Tie that Binds, History of Alpine Baptist Church 1832-1988", Alpine Baptist Church, 1988), page 278.

8. 1860, 29 Oct: letter from J.H. Curry of Brush Valley, Bienville Parish, LA, to his sister-in-law, Amanda M. Cox, of Walnut Creek, LA (note: this letter was printed in "The Upshaw Family Journal", Vol. II page 47 & includes the following, which is in reference to either Tabitha (Lawless) Upshaw or to Ann (Faulkner) Upshaw: "Manda, old Mrs. Upshaw is dead. She died 22 of October." (note: this reference to "Old Mrs. Upshaw" is interesting - Tabitha (Lawless) Upshaw would've been only about 56 years old in 1860, which is not exactly what most people would call "old"; could this have possibly been in reference to Ann (Faulkner) Upshaw, wife of Forrester, who is thought to have died in Louisiana while visiting a son (according to family tradition by Cora Lou Herndon), although no reference to her or to Forrester has ever been found in Louisiana? Ann (Faulkner) Upshaw would've been about 85-90 years old in 1860, which sounds more like "Old Mrs. Upshaw"). It would be vital to know the age of the letter-writer, J.H. Curry, when he wrote the letter. His own age would have a great effect on his reference point to someone as "old", whether he were a teenager or in his mid-fifties, for example.

COMMENTS: 

1. Parson Upshaw is documented to have lived in Elbert Co, GA, before 1802; Roane Co, TN, before October 1811; Dickson Co, TN, in 1815 (perhaps); Montgomery Co, TN, in 1820, adjacent to his brother-in-law, George Greenwood, husband of Martha Upshaw; Gallatin Co, IL, in 1826; Jackson Co, IL, in 1828; no later record.

2. It is suspected that Parson Upshaw was the father of Mary ("Polly") Upshaw, born ca 1798, in GA, who married Ezekiel Starr in Feb. 1820, Blount Co, TN. Parson was in the 1820 census of Williamson Co, TN, which is about 100 miles away from Blount Co. We have no evidence that Parson was in Blount County at any time, although we do know he was in nearby Roane County earlier, in 1811; see notes above. More evidence is needed.

3. Attempting to identify his unknown children, as enumerated in the 1820 Montgomery Co, TN, census, the following three early Upshaw marriages are noted in IL: Nancy Upshaw & Daniel Akers, 21 Jun 1845, Crawford Co, IL; Singleton Upshaw & Amelia Jane Barnett, 4 Apr 1856, Jackson Co, IL; Miss Fredonia C. Upshaw & John E. Glen, 7 Jun 1849, Jackson Co, IL. 
What about Singleton Upshaw-was he in the Civil War & did he apply for a pension? If John E. Glen was in Civil War, did Fredonia (Upshaw) Glen outlive him & apply for a widow's pension?
   Although there is a marriage if Nancy Upshaw & Daniel Akers in 1845, this Daniel Akers with a wife "Nancy' is not found in the 1850 census index.

4. As concerns possible migration route from eastern Georgia area to southern Illinois area circa 1830, the following is from "Old Dennis Cason's Way Bill" as published in Family Puzzlers periodical, April 4, 1974, issue no. 337, pp. 1-3 (an 1816 map is also shown on pages 8 & 9): Please note that this route goes through Montgomery Co, Tenn, where Parson was enumerated in the 1820 census.

5. Concerning the name "Parson" or "Parsons", which seems to be a surname; Other "Parsons" connections in Amherst Co, VA, are Sally Parsons, who left a nuncupative will in 1802 (Will Book 4, page 33); there is also mention of a "Sarah Parsons" in the will of Edward Cox, 1780 (Will Book 1, page 533).  There is no known Upshaw-Parsons connection that I am aware of.

2. 1820 census, Montgomery Co, TN, page 19: "Parson Upshaw" household: 1 female age 26-45 (born 1775-1795)

COMMENTS: 

1. The will of John Parham, 1804 Elbert Co, GA, names a daughter "Mary Upshaw" and her husband was Richard Upshaw Sr., not Parson Upshaw, as evidenced by the fact that Richard Upshaw, not Parson, signed for his (wife's) share of John Parham's estate. This is proof that the wife of Parson Upshaw was not Mary Parham. The name of the wife of Parson Upshaw thusfar remains unknown.

Parsons Upshaw and (Parson, wife of) Upshaw had the following children:

	+277	i.	Amelia "Milley" Upshaw, born 1796, Pendleton Dist?, South Carolina; married Peter Dobbs, 1816–1825, Georgia?; died Jefferson Co, Alabama.

	282	vi.	(Parson, son of) Upshaw was born in 1805–1810 in Elbert? Co, Georgia?. He appeared in the census in 1820 in Montgomery Co, Tennessee. He was living in 1820. (Parson, was buried at an unknown cemetery. 1. 1805-1810: Birth date calculated from age of "10-15" as given in 1820 census.

COMMENTS:

1. This son of Parson Upshaw may have been John Upshaw, b 1801, GA; This was the ancestor of Mrs. Jackie H. Street, 105 Oak Hill Place, Ithaca, NY 14850. This John Upshaw was in Henry Co, TN in 1830, Henderson Co, KY in 1840, Greene Co, MO in 1850, and in Webster Co, MO in 1860; He is thought to have md (1) Cynthia Greenwood ca 1822-24 & (2) Sarah Neece 1845 Henry Co, TN. The marriage to "Cynthia Greenwood" is interesting, as George W., brother of this man, married perhaps a sister, "Mary Malinda Greenwood".

COMMENTS:

2.  There are no "Richard Upshaw" papers among original Walton County estate papers at the Georgia Archives, Record Group 247, Sub-group 2, Series 13 "Arranged Miscellaneous Records of the Inferior Court of Walton County".

COMMENTS: 

1. Considering the dates of birth and of marriage, she would've been very young when married. 

Nancy "Agnes" Upshaw and Beverly Greenwood Sr. were married before 1799 in Elbert Co, Georgia. Beverly Greenwood Sr., son of John Greenwood and Ann Bates, was born circa 1772 in Christ Church Pa, Middlesex Co, Virginia. He lived in Elbert Co, Georgia in 1797–1805. He appeared in the census in 1810 in Pendleton Dist., South Carolina. Beverly died in 1823 at the age of 51 in Greene Co, Alabama. He was buried at an unknown cemetery in Greene Co, Alabama.

COMMENTS: 

1. The will of John Parham, 1804, Elbert Co, GA, names a daughter "Mary Upshaw"; whose husband was Richard Upshaw, as proved by John Parham estate returns. Mary Parham could not have been the wife of Drury Upshaw, as Drury could not have been married much before 1808 and John Parham's will named his daughter "Mary Upshaw" in 1804.  

2. Frances (Parham) Upshaw was reinterred at Denlow cemetery, Douglas Co, MO.

	+355	i.	Middleton Cook Upshaw, born 3 Jan 1808, Elbert Co, Georgia; married Elizabeth H. Tucker, 2 Feb 1830, Elbert Co, Georgia; died 20 Jun 1838, Elbert Co, Georgia.

177.  Sarah Upshaw was born on 31 Jan 1779 in Amherst Co, Virginia. She died circa 1833 at the age of 54 in Elbert Co, Georgia. She was buried at an unknown cemetery in Elbert Co, Georgia. 
DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. 1779, 31 Jan: Birthdate of Sarah Upshaw; (Source:John Upshaw Family Record, University of Georgia Special Collections). 

COMMENTS: 

1.  Marriage date of 12 June 1796, per Mr. Dale Caughey, 1923 Ashbrook Drive, Wilmington, NC, 28401 (this from DAR application of Ms. Myrtle Maxwell).  No documentation is known for this date.

2.  There is great circumstantial evidence that Sarah Upshaw was NOT the wife of Benjamin Thornton; see "Thornton Family Records - Private Papers" by Mr. Chandler Eavenson, 29 Jul 1991), which shows that Sarah SMITH was his wife. There is only tradition to support the idea that Sarah UPSHAW was his wife; no primary evidence is known. (See Note #3)

3.  (Query from "Southern Queries", Vol 6 #2 page 10, by Chandler Eavenson):
Who were parents & first wife of Benjamin THORNTON Sr. b ca 1774-75 according to 1850 census; moved to Elbert Co, GA ca 1805 from Warren Co, NC.  Benjamin THORNTON is named in the 1776 Bute Co, NC (later Warren Co) will of William KENDRICK as a minor grandson.  Also named in 1793 Warren Co will of Sarah KENDRICK, widow of William.  Benjamin had dau Priscilla Kindree THORNTON & granddau Sarah Kindred THORNTON, both middle names believed misspellings of "Kendrick".  Benjamin had two granddaus with middle names of "Smith", and other children & grandchildren with middle initial "S".  First wife was poss a Sarah SMITH of Warren Co. area, & not the often reported Sarah UPSHAW.
Benjamin Sr. did not accompany Rev. Dozier THORNTON to the Wilkes (later Elbert) Co area ca 1783-84 & would have been only ca age 9 at that time.  Benjamin Sr.'s father was possibly a Thomas THORNTON who was associated with the KENDRICK family, brother of a Mark THORNTON Jr. & seller of land to Dozier in Bute Co.

4. Perhaps one of the strongest pieces of counter evidence to Sarah Upshaw being the wife of Benjamin Thornton, Sr., is the 1820 Elbert Co, GA, census, which shows Sarah, the wife of Benjamin as being over 45 years old, meaning she was born before 1775, but it is documented that Sarah Upshaw, dau of John Upshaw Sr., was born 31 Jan 1779.

5. No documentation is known for the 1833 death date of Sarah.

6. It is unusual that John Upshaw, in his will dated 26 Feb 1831, makes no mention of his daughter Sarah or of any of her children.  If Sarah Upshaw was NOT the wife of Benjamin Thornton, she may have died either unmarried or married but without children prior to 1831 when the will was written.

7. Sarah (Upshaw) Thornton is not found in "Early Cemeteries and Gravestones, Elbert County, Georgia 1798-1919", by the Elbert County Historical Society, Elberton, GA, 1984.

8. Elbert Co., GA, deed abstracts covering 1791-1835, by Michal Martin Farmer show the following regarding Sarah (Sally) Thornton:
   Vol. "Deed Books A-J, 1791-1806", page 237: Elbert Co., Ga., Deed Book G, page 99: Thomas Thornton & Molley, his wife, & Daniel Thornton & Sarah, his wife, all of Elbert Co., to James Jones, etc. dated 25 July 1801.
   Vol. "Deed Books K-R, 1806-1819", page 253: Elbert Co., Ga., Deed Book P, page 118: 11 May 1815: Daniel Thornton to John Beck, both of Elbert Co., 204 acres, etc. Sally, wife of Daniel Thornton, rel. dower rights. (signed) Sally Thornton.
   (Note: Although there are only two references to a Sarah/Sally Thornton, as the wife of Daniel Thornton, found in these deed abstracts, there is no reference found to any wife of Benjamin Thornton, such as in a dower release, etc.).

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. "A Glimpse of Thorntons Through the Centuries", Walter W. Thornton, Texarkana, TX (date?), page 12. (Note: this citation is incorrect, as it shows that children # 5 through 9 (Dozier, Mary, Thomas, Sarah, & David, or Daniel) were "born of second marriage, Rebecca Upshaw".
(Note by TOB: This is not possible, as Benjamin & Rebecca were not married until 21 Jan 1836, and his first wife, Sarah, did not die until 1833. All of Benjamin's children were by his first wife, Sarah.

2. "The Thornton Family, Dozier Thornton Line", by Jonathan Mills Thornton, (date?), pages 19, 20.

COMMENTS: 

1. It is believed that James and Lucinda (Ham) Upshaw had two other children who died in infancy.

2. Local Laconics.
   There is a lady in this place who has a small goblet or wine glass that has been in use for considerably over one hundred years. It was bought by Mr. Middleton Upshaw, who lived in Elbert County. At his death it came into possession of his son, Mr. James Upshaw, who afterwards moved to old Cass, now Bartow, county. At the death of the latter named gentleman, this wine glass fell to the share of his daughter, Mary M. Upshaw, who afterwards married and raised two daughters and, at the marriage of the elder, 19 years ago, this heirloom was given to her, and is now in her possession. (Source: The Jackson Herald newspaper, Jefferson, Georgia, issue of 2 October 1885). (Note: This 1885 account is partially incorrect, in that the father of James Upshaw of Cass/Bartow County was John Upshaw, Sr., RS, not "Middleton" Upshaw).

James Upshaw and Lucinda Ham were married on 29 Jul 1812 in Elbert Co, Georgia. Lucinda Ham, daughter of John Ham and Elizabeth Gatewood, was born on 5 Oct 1788 in Amherst Co, Virginia. She appeared in the census in 1820 in Elbert Co, Georgia. She appeared in the census in 1830 in Elbert Co, Georgia. Lucinda lived in Cass (now Bartow) Co, Georgia from 1836 to 1862. She appeared in the census in 1840 in Cass (now Bartow) Co, Georgia. She appeared in the census in 1850 in Cass (now Bartow) Co, Georgia. Lucinda appeared in the census in 1860 in Cass (now Bartow) Co, Georgia. She died on 16 Mar 1862 at the age of 73 in Cass (now Bartow) Co, Georgia. She was buried at Upshaw Family cemetery in Cass (now Bartow) Co, Georgia.

Capt. Upshaw is an Attorney of far more than ordinary ability, and is in the active practice of his profession at Hillsboro, Texas.
   He was born in Little Rock, Arkansas, Jan. 31, 1840, a son of Col. A. M. M. Upshaw, a native of Essex County, Virginia, who moved to middle Tennessee when a young man, from which state he volunteered in the Indian War of 1836, serving against the Seminoles in Florida, after which he was appointed agent for the Chickasaws by Van Buren and assisted in moving this Tribe to the country it now occupies. He remained agent in charge of this Tribe for ten years, at which time he came to Texas, settling in Washington County, which he afterwards represented in the Texas legislature two terms, and was a prominent citizen of the County until his death, which occurred in 1877. His wife was Ann H. Crockett - a native of Williamson County, Tenn., but she is now a resident of Houston, Texas, and has reached the advanced age of 87 years.

   Deaths. Died, on the 2d inst., Dr. James W. Upshaw, of Caroline County, Va., aged about 60 years.  His death is very much regretted by his friends and acquaintances.  In losing Dr. Upshaw, they sustained a very great loss, not only as a physician, but as a physician, but as a kind neighbor and a benevolent and hospitable man - his liberality to the poor overpowered the length of his purse.  He has left behind four children; one of them is grown, and able to steer his course through this unfriendly world - the remainder of them are very young, but fortunately for them, they have fallen into the hands of a kind grandfather.  Dr. Upshaw had been a member of the Baptist Church for many years.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. "Hang 'em First, Try'em Later": "As the only law west of the Pecos", Judge Roy Bean practiced a legendary -- and outrageous -- brand of frontier justice", by Bruce Watson.
   page 102: "Many of Bean's rulings were amusing, but there's nothing fun about getting away with murder. Or getting your son off for murder. Sam Bean was the youngest and wildest of Roy's five children. One day in the saloon, a certain Mr. George Upshaw made fun of Sam's fine Mexican blanket. The two men argued, and Upshaw slapped Sam in the face, drawing blood. Roy said simply, "Shoot him, Sam -- shoot him." Obeying his father, Sam blew the man away. For the next year, Roy corralled witnesses and promised favors. In a Del Rio courtroom in 1899, Sam Bean was acquitted. The verdict, a Langtry old-timer remembered, cost Roy "many a bottle of beer" and nearly all the money he'd managed to save." (Source: "Smithsonian" (magazine), June 1998, Vol. 29, #3, page 96).

2. Mr. George Upshaw had a store in Langtry and he also was a rancher. He was like most of the men around Langtry .in those days in that he occasionally spent some time in Roy Bean's saloon. I don't think he was a heavy drinker, but anyway, he was in Roy Bean's saloon drinking one morning with some railroad men and Roy Bean's son Sam was there, too.
   It seems like Sam had a Mexican blanket and Mr. Upshaw made fun of it. Anyway, they got in such a hot argument that, and I know this is a fact, old man Upshaw slapped Sam in the face and made his nose bleed. Directly, Mr. Upshaw picked up a Winchester, I suppose it might have been the judge's, he always kept one there. Anyway, Mr. Upshaw held the rifle and Sam's nose quit bleeding. Of course, while all this was going on the old judge was there in the saloon watching it all. 
   Sam and Mr. Upshaw talked there for a while and then they came out on the porch and he said to Sam, "I guess if I give you your gun back you will shoot me."
   I don't know how long he stood there, but Mr. Upshaw handed Sam the gun and then went on down the steps leading off the porch. There were four or five steps and Mr. Upshaw walked briskly down the steps and started home. He got nearly to the railroad and Sam shot him in the back, right between the shoulder blades. Old man Upshaw turned around and he said, "Sam, don't shoot me anymore. You have give me a dead shot."
   Old Judge Roy had been the real cause of it. As Upshaw started off he said, "Shoot him, Sam - shoot him." After Sam shot Mr. Upshaw,, the old judge said, "Shoot him again." Mrs. Upshaw and other people there said that if it hadn't been for old Roy Bean that Sam never would have killed Mr. Upshaw. Old Judge was the cause of every bit of it. 
   Mr. Upshaw and several others rushed there and Mr. Upshaw was laying on one of the tracks, and he said, "Oh, Sam shot me. I begged him not to shoot me the second time, but he did anyway." They picked Mr. Upshaw up and put him on a cot and carried him down to his house, but he died right away.
   Judge Bean ate at Mrs. Dodd's boardinghouse most of the time, and one day about a year after Sam had killed Mr. Upshaw, the judge went down to Mrs. Dodd's to eat. Mrs. Upshaw was working for Mrs. Dodd as a cook and Roy Bean saw her in the kitchen and said, "Who is that cooking in there?"
   Mrs. Dodd said, "Mrs. Upshaw."
   Roy Bean shoved his plate back, got up and got his hat, and left. Somebody asked Bean what was the matter, and he said he was afraid Mrs. Upshaw might try to poison him (footnote 15).
   Sam Bean was the youngest of the five Bean children and was the wildest of the bunch. He was often in trouble, but his father usually figured out some way to keep Sam cleared of the charges. After Sam killed George Upshaw, many Langtry folks figured that Roy Bean would not be able to get his son cleared of such a serious offense. But they underestimated the Law West of the Pecos. Sam Bean was acquitted at a trial held at Del Rio in 1899, but old-timers say it took most of Roy Bean's time for several months and all of his money to swing the verdict. Mrs. Farley told me:
   It cost the judge an awful lot, but Sam got out of killing old man Upshaw. I think some of the men swore about Mr. Upshaw slapping Sam in the face and making his nose bleed. That was all against old man Upshaw. They didn't have any witnesses for old man Upshaw. Nobody would testify. All that bunch there testified for Sam. It cost the old man many a bottle of beer. Sam came just as clear as a whistle of that, because Judge Roy Bean had lots of friends. (footnote 16).

I visited George Roane Upshaw's grave and found the lot where the Upshaw house once stood. The house next door to it is still standing and once was home to Charles Upshaw, G.R.'s son. As for Judge Roy bean's infamous "Jersey Lilly" saloon, the one that's there now is not the original. The original Jersey Lilly was burned to the ground after Sam Bean was acquitted of murdering George Roane Upshaw. There's been some speculation that "the Upshaw boys" did it in retaliation for their father's murder - knowing the family, it could be true."

26. 1878, 1 May, obituary: 
      Died - At his home in Walton County, Ga., on May 1st, 1878, Deacon Tinsley Upshaw, aged 82 years lacking one month and 3 days. Our aged brother has been a Baptist fifty three years, served the church many years as Clerk, and was baptized in the same county in which he died. In the division which took place between the Old and New School Baptists, our aged brother was led off into the ranks of the latter for a few years, but was never satisfied, and came back, lived devotedly, and was useful to the brotherhood generally. Our brother had been married three times, all his wives being Old School Baptists, and all his children who have a hope in Christ are united to the same church. He left thirteen living children, all being present at his burial but one. He lived to see his eighteenth child grown, and there were at his burial sixty-one of his descendants present. His death was very sudden, hence he was not allowed to speak in reference to it in his last moments. He had been having, awhile before his death, several attacks of something like apoplexy or paralysis. About fifteen minutes before he died he told his wife that he was going to have another one of those bad spells, and died without ever speaking again. Our brother’s life and conversation leave no grounds to doubt but that he is now sleeping in Jesus.
      May the Lord mercifully sustain our aged sister, the widow, and all his children and relatives, under this dispensation of his providence, and may it be sanctified  to their good as well as to the large circle of friends and the brotherhood generally.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1.  Information by Cora Lou (Upshaw) Herndon (granddaughter of Forrest Tinsley Upshaw); Miscellaneous letters to Grace E. Jared. (originals in possession of Ted Brooke, Jan 1998).

2.  The first Upshaws (spelled by some relatives as Upshur) to settle in Walton County made their homes in the First District near Mt. Paron Church four miles from Social Circle. On May 31, 1822, Richard Upshaw bought land from Edmund Elder in that district, acquiring 100 acres for $300. On Oct. 22, 1824, Adkins Upshaw bought 250 acres in the First District for $200.  On Oct. 18, 1828, Adkins Upshaw deeded 135 acres in the First District to his brother, Tinsley Upshaw, for $120. 
   Tinsley Upshaw bought 250 acres Oct. 19, 1840 from Allen Chandler at $500. It lay in the Fourth District where Tinsley Upshaw and family moved after Tinsley sold his land in the First District. He also bought adjoining lands and continued his residence there throughout his life. He was 27 when he married Martha Phillips at Lexington in Oglethorpe County. He and his wife and her parents came to Walton and lived a number of years in Social Circle. Tinsley was a soldier in the War of 1812, but served only three months. Born in Elbert County, he enlisted there. Following service in 1814, he went to school in Lexington and boarded with his uncle, Richard Upshaw, whose wife was the former Rebecca Elder. Tinsley Upshaw was then for sometime a teacher in country schools. He and his wives were members of Mt. Paron and later Social Circle Baptist churches in the First District. In 1837, Tinsley and Francis Byrd Upshaw are listed as members of the then-new Baptist church in Social Circle.
   The first record book of Mt. Paron Church was lost by a church clerk. Consequently, records are missing prior to 1880. In 1852, the Sardis Church records show that Tinsley Upshaw and his wife Frances joined there on confession of faith. The Baptists had been divided since the “Schism” occurring at an associational meeting in 1832 in Eatonton.
   After the death of Tinsley Upshaw’s first wife in 1829 or 1830, he married Frances Byrd in Walton County Sept. 26, 1831.
   Children of Tinsley and Martha Phillips Upshaw were Emily, who married Elbert Ivey; Elizabeth, who married Preston Rutherford; and John Phillips, who married Mrs. Mary Stark Selman, widow of John Selman.

5. Forrest Tinsley Upshaw. Fifth in the Upshaw line was Forrest Tinsley Upshaw of Georgia. He was born in Elbert County, June 1, 1796, when George Washington was President of the United States., He lived in Oglethorpe County after the War of 1812, in which he served, having enlisted in 1814, when he was 18 years old. Many years later, the Daughters of the War of 1812 placed a marker at his grave sight (sic) on the property he had owned in Walton County.
   Since he was a well educated man, he was sought out constantly to read or to write documents, witness various  papers, etc. People would come for miles around to get his advice., Forrest Tinsley was always called Tinsley and after a few years stopped using  the "Forrest". He signed his will simply Tinsley Upshaw, but his granddaughter, Frances Upshaw Barrett, remembers the family Bible and recalls his name written in a flowing hand "Forrest Tinsley Upshaw". Frances's father was Tinsley's youngest child, Preston Calhoun Upshaw. Tinsley was married three times and had eighteen children.
   After the War of 1812, he went to lexington in Oglethorpe Countye he finished his education and taught in country schools for a time.When his uncle, Richard Upshaw and his wife, the former Rebecca Elser, moved to Lexington, he lived with them. He was married to Martha Phillips in Lexington, 1823. They may have lived in Oglethorpe County for a while, but their son, John Phillips Upshaw, was born 28 December 1826, in Walton County, as were two daughters, Emily F. and Susan A. Upshaw. 
   When he and Martha removed to Walton, her parents went with them. Richard Upshaw, his uncle, and his brothers, Adkins and Hasten, also lived in Walton County in the late 1820s. In 1828, on October 18, Adkins deeded 135 acres in the 1st District to his brother, Tinsley, for $120.00. In a few years, Tinsley was the only Upshaw of the older generation remaining in Walton County. He moved to the 4th District of Walton, ca. 1852, and spent the rest of his life there. He had been a member of the Mt. Paran Baptist Church, then moved his membership to the Social Circle Baptist Church, since it was closer to his home which was about four miles from the town limits. Later, when he and his family removed to the 4th District, he was a member of the Sardis Church.
   The record of Forrest Tinsley Upshaw's first marriage is fouind in Oglethorpe County Marriage Records, p. 148, (also this marriage is recorded on p. 205, Historical Collection of D.A.R. Vol. II (or V) 1949 John T. Hancock).

8. 1855, 15 Nov: Morgan Co., Ga. October 22, 1855. Brother Beebe: According to the request of my dear brother, Tinsley Upshaw, I forward you the following obituary notice of the death of his wife, Frances Upshaw, for publication. Sister Upshaw was the daughter of Robert Bird and Mary Bird, formerly Mary Giles, of Wilkes Co., Ga. She was married on the 25th of September, 1831 and united shortly after with the church at Mount Paron, Walton Co., and was baptized by Elder William Lacy. Some time after removal she became a member of the church at Sardis, in the same county  where she remained a pious, respected and orderly member till her death, which occurred on the 6th day of September last after a short but painful illness, as she died the sixth day after her delivery of her seventh child. We have every reason to believe her to have been one of the best of mothers, and indulgent mistress, and most agreeable companion, but she is gone and left nine children (one of them only six days old), her dear companion with many other friends and relatives to mourn their irreparable loss. The little church at Sardis can but mourn their great bereavement. James W. Walker. (Source: The Southern Baptist Messenger, issue of 15 November 1855, Vol. 5 no. 22).

1. XIV. James Upshaw, born ca. 1852, was called Jimmie and drowned when about three years old and was buried in the family burial plot on Tinsley's property near Social Circle. His mother, Frances (Byrd) Upshaw, was so upset that Tinsley sold the farm and bought property near Sardis Church on the road from Monroe to Atlanta near the community of Between, in Walton County. The new owner of the farm near Social Circle promised to keep up the small graveyard and perhaps he did. Frances was expecting another baby and would not consider naming him - if it were a boy - "James", as Tinsley wished. They compromised by naming the baby "James Berrien" but calling him Berrien.

9. 1887, 4 June: Obituary of Judith M. Upshaw:
   In Memory of Sister Judith M. Upshaw; from records of Sardis Primitive Baptist Church.
   Sister Judith M. Upshaw departed this life June 4th, 1887 at age 66 years, three months and twenty five days. Sister Upshaw was the widow of our much esteemed Deacon Tinsley Upshaw who departed this life 9 years ago, May 1, 1878.  She was formerly Miss Judith England.
   Sister Upshaw died of cholera Infantum. In preparing these expressions, we are like we have been in former cases in speaking of loved ones who have been taken from our midst, therefore we feel a loss of language to express our high esteem and love we felt for Sister Upshaw discouraged us in the attempt to write. Suffice it to say that some of us have known Sister Upshaw as far back as our memory serves us, which is almost a half century, and among the many fault finders through our land and country, through her day and age of the world, not the first fault have we heard uttered or chargable (sic) to her. What a comforting thought to be placed in memory of one we loved so well.
   Sister Upshaw leaves three children and seven step-children to mourn their loss,but we feel that our loss is her Eternal gain. So we bow in humble submission to the Will of God, who works all things after the counsel of His own will. In closing this we wish to tender to her children, stepchildren and grandchildren our deep and heartfelt sympathy.
   Memorial Committee, G. Durden, L,O, Brooks, J.C. Robertson.
   (Notice - We have been told this Memorial was written by a dear friend and church sister, Mrs. John S. (Josephine) Dickinson. Elder M.F. Hurst was Church Pastor, and I think was present to conduct funeral services.)

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. Forrest Tinsley Upshaw was left with a five day old son, James Berrien, when Frances (Byrd) Upshaw, his second wife, died 6 September 1855. His daughter, Mary, kept the baby until Tinsley remarried. his third wife, Judith M. England was born 7 February 1821, according to her obituary. 
   Mrs. Brumley Pritchett has tried to trace the Englands and made some progress through Mr. Gunter England who told her that Lucy N. England was married to James S. O'Kelley on 21 July 1845, Walton Co., Ga. He suggested Gordon County as a starter. Mrs. Pritchett found in the 1850 Gordon County census enumerated 7 Dec. 1850, the following from the 12th Division, pp. 52, 53:
   Dwelling #599, Family #602: James Shelnut, b. S.C., age 48, farmer. Household: Jane Shelnut, female, age 20, b. Ga.; Mary Ann England, age 22.
   Dwelling #600, Family #603: J.S. O'Kelley, age 26, male, farmer, b. Ga., Household: Lucy, age 23, female, b. Ga.; Sarah, age 4, female, b. Ga.; Charles, age 2, male, b. Ga.; James R., age 1, male, b. Ga.; Judith M. England, age 27, female, b. Ga.
   From this source, we can calculate the approximate years of birth of the four England sisters:
   1. Judith Margaret, the oldest, b. 1823 (see her obituary which reports her age as 66 years in 1887). One of the Walton County censuses, after she was married to Tinsley Upshaw, refers to her as Margaret.
   2. Lucy, b. 1827, wife of J.S. O'Kelley.
   3, Mary Ann, b. 1828, wife of ________ Blackwell.
   4. Jane, b. 1830, wife of James Shelnut.
   We know from this information, that there were at least four daughters in the England family - There were two Englands in the Cass County (Later Bartow) census of 1840: Abner England and Jonathan England, but so far these have not been tied in with our Judith Margaret.
   Jane Shelnut and Mary Blackwell lived with Tinsley's youngest child - the eighteenth - Preston Calhoun Upshaw, for several years. They had been widowed and were considered elderly by that time. Preston Calhoun and his wife Lena were married 19 Dec. 1888; they cared for these aunts until their death.
   Children of Forrest Tinsley and Judith (England) Upshaw:
   Judith and Tinsley had three sons: Henry Clay Upshaw, Harrison Filmore Upshaw, and Preston Calhoun Upshaw.

8. 1860, 29 Oct: letter from J.H. Curry of Brush Valley, Bienville Parish, LA, to his sister-in-law, Amanda M. Cox of Walnut Creek, LA (note: this letter was printed in the "Upshaw Family Journal", vol. II page 47 & includes the following, which may be in reference to Tabitha (Lawless) Upshaw, although it could be in reference to Ann (Faulkner) Upshaw):
   "Manda, old Mrs. Upshaw is dead. She died 22 of October."
   (note: This reference to "Old Mrs. Upshaw" is interesting - Tabitha (Lawless) Upshaw would've been only about 60 years old in 1860 and not exactly what most people would call "old"; could this have possibly been in reference to Ann (Faulkner) Upshaw, wife of Forrester, who is thought to have died in Louisiana while visiting a son (according to Cora Lou Herndon), although no reference to her or Forrester has ever been found in Louisiana? Ann (Faulkner) Upshaw would've been about 85-90 years old in 1860, which sounds more like "Old Mrs. Upshaw"). If we knew how old J.H. Curry was when he wrote this in 1860, we would know his reference point for stating "Old Mrs. Upshaw"; it would make a large difference in his reference point whether he were a teenager or middle aged when he refers to someone as "old".

COMMENTS: 

1. There is conjecture that "John R. Upshaw" was this unidentified son, which is due mainly to the comment by William D. Upshaw in his book "Echoes From a Recluse", page 453, in which he refers to "My Uncle, John R. Upshaw (now of Marble Valley, Shelby Co., Ala.)". IfApparently, this was an unfortunate use of words, as there is no evidence to support this relationship.  The John R. Upshaw, born in 1830 and married Eliza F. Stamps in Coweta Co, GA, was the son of Adkin Upshaw, who later left his will in Carroll Co, GA, and named a son "John R. Upshaw". If "Eliza F. Stamps" & Adeline ("Addie") Stamps were sisters, John R. Upshaw would've been the uncle of William D. Upshaw by marriage. This John R. Upshaw did later live in Shelby Co, AL, died there 6 June 1898 and his widow, Eliza F. (Stamps) Upshaw, drew a Confederate Widow's pension.  I believe I have seen tombstone inscriptions for them somewhere but cannot now locate them. There is no John R. Upshaw found in the Haston Upshaw estate papers as an heir or otherwise, although all the other children are.  The unidentified male child, born 1818-1820, is not found in these papers either, but he could have died between 1840 and 1849.

	+521	ii.	George F. Upshaw, born 1821, Madison Co, Georgia; married Frances E. Edwards, 19 Aug 1842, Walton Co, Georgia; died 1858–1860, Meriwether Co, Georgia.

Haston Upshaw and Rhoda Oglesby were married on 3 Aug 1823 in Elbert Co, Georgia. Rhoda Oglesby, daughter of George Oglesby and Elizabeth (Mrs. George) Oglesby, was born in 1806 in Georgia?. She appeared in the census in 1830 in Elbert Co, Georgia. She appeared in the census in 1840 in Walton Co, Georgia. Rhoda died on 19 Aug 1847 at the age of 41 in Coweta Co, Georgia. She was buried at an unknown cemetery in Coweta Co, Georgia.

3. 1851, 13 Jan: Mary Upshaw petitions the court on behalf of her daughter, "Sarah E.F. Upshaw", stating that she is the orphan child of Haston Upshaw and should benefit from his estate (Coweta Co. Minutes Book C, page 53). Mary Upshaw was appointed guardian of Sarah E.F. Upshaw, 13 Jan 1851. (Coweta Co. Guardian Bonds book B, page 154). The 1850 Coweta Co. census (dwelling #1068) shows a "Sarah Upshaw", age 1, with Mary Upshaw; as there was some question as to the child's property right, Sarah was likely born after Haston's death. Sarah E. F. Upshaw was obviously the (only) daughter of Haston's third wife, Mary (Brooks) Upshaw (married 21 July 1848, Coweta Co.).

   Mr. Adkin Upshaw died at his home near here, on last Tuesday, in the 85th year of his age. The deceased was well and favorably known throughout this county where he has lived since 1865.
  "Uncle Adkin", as he was familarily called, was born in Virginia but moved to Georgia when he was about 8 years of age. (TOB note: this is obviously in reference to the fact that his father Forrester was living in Pendleton District, South Carolina, in 1805 & 1806 and moved to Georgia about 1809). When about 35 years of age, he moved to Coweta (County) where his family was raised.  In 1863 he moved to Heard County and in 1865 to this County to the place where he died.
   The deceased was one of the leading members of the Primitive Baptist
Church, in the faith of which he died. To the many relatives and friends in the County we extend our condolence.

44. 1885, 16 Oct: "Carroll County Times": Obituary.
   Died, at his residence near Carrollton Sept. 22nd 1885, Adkin Upshaw, aged 84 yrs., 5 months, and 3 days.
   He was born in Virginia, April 19th 1801. Moved to Georgia in 1809. Joined the Primitive Baptist Church at the age, 25. Lived a consistent member till death.
   In the days of his strength, he had heard the preaching of Mosely, Henderson and others who had so successfully filled the pulpits of Georgia and so forcibly taught the doctrines of his Church.
   Brought up under their teaching, it is not a matter of wonder, that he should have remained so firmly fixed in his faith. When Brother Upshaw joined the Church by the preaching of the Gospel wise men were made wiser, and bad men were made better. It was a time when the world was forced to acknowledge the divine power of the Gospel.
   In the latter part of his life he, especially, devoted himself to the reading and study of the Bible. It was his comfort in this life and hope for the world to come. Quiescat in Pace. A Friend.

COMMENTS: 

1. I have no proof that Richard Manary was the father of Edward; it is thought by some researchers, including Linda Teichman, that "Ignacious" & "Horseshoe Mary" Manary were his parents; more research is needed in Charles City Co, MD.

2. It is uncertain whether the correct spelling of this surname is "Manary" or "Manery"; can someone clarify?

   At first I believed Andrew Wright Torbert was son of William Torbet and Rachel Wright. I still do not have enough proof but other researchers believe he was a son of Samuel Torbert, Jr., and Rachel Wright.
   Samuel and Rachel may never have come to Tennessee but three of their children came to Monroe and McMinn Co. in the early 1830s. Their children are: 1. Samuel Cherry (24 Oct 1789 Ga-22 Aug 1855) Thomaston, Upson, Ga.) m. Mary; 2. John (27 Dec 1791 Abbeyville(sic), SC-7 Jan 1882 McM. Co. Tn.) m. Sarah then Elizabeth. 3. James (31 Jul. 1794 SC-1869 Macon,Al), m. Catherine I. Smith; 4. Rachel (1796 SC-1837)m. Alexander Rider, both are buried Sink Cem., Tellico Plains, Monroe Co, Tn.; Andrew Wright (1801 SC-14 Feb 1871) buried Madisonville City cem., Madisonville, Tn. m ca. 1830 Monroe Co., Tn., or Ga. to Nancy Upshaw (1806 Ga.-1896) the dau. of William(sic) Upshaw and Ann Forkner, and is buried with Andrew; 6. Lemuel (1802 SC-Jul. 1868 Upson, Ga.) m. Martha C. Glanton; 7. George Thompson (26 Oct 1803 SC-19 Dec 1865 Ga), m. in Oglethorpe, Ga. to Anna Hardeman; 8. Benjamin Franklin (3 May 1809 Pendleton Dist, SC-16 Mar 1896 Greensboro,Greene Co., Ga) m. ca 1833 Butts Co, Ga, to Mary E. McCoy.
   First land records show Andrew Wright Torbert in 1834 at Madisonville Court House. I have not found him in the 1830 census. Their home stood where Lowry's store is or, rather, was. He carried mail between Madisonville and Sweetwater, Monroe Co., Tn. Sent to me was the original deed of 1862 when Andrew gave Negro slave to his daughter Minerva Peck. For Andrew and Nancy no marriage record has been found. Their children are: 1. Emily Josephine (27 Oct 1831-12 May 1904)m. ca 1847 to Lewis Hunt, both buried Madisonville City Cemetery; 2. Minerva Ann (24 Mar 1833-18 Nov 1866) m. 28 June 1858 to Joseph Alexander Peck, both buried Sink Cemetery, Tellico Plains, Monroe Co., Tn.; 3. Sarah E. (22 Jun 1836-11 Oct 1874) Loudon Co, Tn., and buried Madisonville City Cemetery, m. Col. Wesley C.P. Jones. (submitted by: Katrina Jean Semones, 3rd great granddaughter of Andrew W.

COMMENTS:

1. His house in Madisonville stood where Lowry's store now is; (per R. E. Torbert, 1985)

2. Early land plats of McMinn/Monroe cos, TN, shows: In township four, range two east of meridian: John Torbert (anc of Shirley Harper) had land in section 6 & 7 (McMinn Co), and Peter Upshaw has contiguous land purchased in 1820 & 1827.  Also in twp 4 in section 33, Drury Upshaw received land in 1825.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. Personal knowledge of Mr. W. Roy Upshaw, Waco, Texas, from his father, Leroy C. Upshaw.

2. VIII. Middleton Upshaw (5th generation from Capt. William Upshaw, Sr.), b. 1816 in Elbert County. We know little about this Middleton Upshaw, but he also is listed in the 1850 Meriwether Co. census as living in dwelling #418, 34 years old. A large family was listed giving "Forrester" as the name of his second male child. (Source: Sophie W. Upshaw, "Captain William Upshaw, Gent. Planter of Virginia and Allied Families" (Baltimore, MD: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1975), page 32).

COMMENTS:

1. Middleton Upshaw had no military service record or pension for any military service.

2. Lived in Tallapoosa Co, AL, from 1860s to 1883 (need to research Tallapoosa Co, AL, deeds for exact dates).

3. Need to search 1883 newspapers and the New Hope Baptist Church minutes (if they survive) for a possible obituary of him which may contain more biographical information.

4. The only other possibility for the father of Middleton, other than Forrester Upshaw, is Richard Upshaw Sr., son of Leroy Upshaw (RS). Richard Upshaw Sr. had a male under 10 years old in his household in 1820 Elbert Co., page 162. Also, in 1830 Walton Co, GA, census, page 158, Richard Upshaw has 1 male born 1815-1820. Richard Upshaw Sr. evidently died in Walton Co., GA, between 1830 & 1840, although no estate or other evidence of his death has been found.

Margaret's first husband, Jacob C. Darden had died before 1850. Middleton and Elizabeth appear in the 1860 census of Meriwether County, Georgia. They moved to Tallapoosa County, Alabama where Middleton died and is buried. Elizabeth Moved to Grayson County, Texas where Middleton's son Forrester  Upshaw lived. She died there in 1908.

COMMENTS:

1. It is not certain that Mary ("Polly") Upshaw is daughter of Parson Upshaw; it is only circumstantial at this point, as Parson was the only Upshaw of the correct age to be her father, who was in the immediate area of Blount County, although we have never found Parson actually in Blount County, Tennessee about 1820. We only know that he was in Roane Co, TN, shortly before 1811. Additional research is underway either to locate some mention of Parson in Blount Co. in 1819-1821, or to find obituary for Mary (Upshaw) Starr which might give more information.

   (pages 42-49): My Maternal Grandfather.
   I have always found my grandfather Upshaw's name written simply George W. Upshaw. This was true on his two marriage licenses, his legal permit to practice medicine in the state of Illinois, his record in the family Bible, and various Federal Census records. One time, on an ancient record, I found it written George Augustis - but there were many errors in the record, so it must have been one of them. 
   (note: the lineage given in this source is incorrect; George Augustus Upshaw was the son of Edwin Upshaw, not George W. Upshaw; George W. & Parson were in Jackson Co, IL, together circa 1829; George W. consistantly gave his birthplace as Georgia on the 1850, 1860 & 1870 censuses, and George A. consistently gave his birthplace as Virginia and even specified "Essex County, Virginia" in his Mexican War discharge paper)
   His birth date was hard to determine.  On his first marriage record to Mary Malinda Greenwood at Shawneetown [it] is not given. On his second marriage record to my Grandmother Elizabeth Denby at Peoria, Illinois, on Nov. 13, 1848, he states age unknown, which probably accounts for all the different dates of his birth on record.
   The Jackson County, Ill. Federal Census records of  1830, gives his birth from 1800 to 1810. The 1850 census records of Peoria, Ill.  states he was born in 1805. ,I did not find his census records for 1860,  but the 1870 Federal Census records of Cerro Gordo, Ill. give the year as 1801. 
   After his death, Grandmother Elizabeth wrote in the family Bible, "Dr. George W. Upshaw died on the 3'd of  September 1875 in his 75th year."
   In 1961, I had a tombstone put on his grave in the old Cerro Gordo, Ill. cemetery and gave his birth year as 1802-1805. However, since then,  I was sent an aged ledger  sheet by a cousin, Mrs. Mary Rumsey of Oklahoma City, Okla., which was written by some descendant (name not given) of her grandmother, Mary Ann Upshaw Blake, sister of Dr. George Upshaw, in which his birth was given as August 20, 1802. This I believe to be correct. This date was accepted on my D.A.R. record.
   Finding the state of his birth  was not easy, either. His eldest son, Francis Marion (Frank) Upshaw, left the record that his father was born in Mississippi. His second son, George Washington Upshaw Jr., gave it as Tennessee. His son, Thomas, didn't know. His Census record gave his birthplace as Georgia, so it was to Georgia I went first for records. (Editor's note: Dr. George W. Upshaw consistently and conclusively gave Georgia as his birthplace on all three - 1850, 1860 & 1870 - censuses).
   There were Upshaws in Elbert County, Georgia, as early as 1790, when "Le Roy Upshaw, self and 15 in family" settled there. Le Roy appears to have been the son of Forrest and Ann (Hunt) Upshaw.
   I spent over 10 years tracing every Upshaw in Georgia. They left plenty of historical records, wills and census records, and land grants to prove my grandfather was not born in Georgia and that he was not a descendant of Forrester Upshaw. In 1802 he couldn't have been born in Tennessee or Mississippi either. There was really not much of any Mississippi in 1802, certainly no records as it wasn't even a state then.
   I traced the Upshaws in Giles County, Tennessee carefully, as they were the descendants of Jeremiah Upshaw (brother of Forrester) of Virginia.  In fact, I traced the  entire State of Tennessee for him, with no results whatsoever.
   But I did find my maternal grandfather, George Upshaw, in Virginia. After he left Virginia in 1819 or 1820, it seems reasonable to suppose  he spent some time in Giles County, Tennessee with Upshaw relatives. But I think that most of his time was spent in Elbert County, Georgia living with numerous relatives, descendants of his great uncle Forrester Upshaw.
   The proud spirit of Grandfather Upshaw evidently never recovered from his trouble with his stepmother so he evidently chose Georgia as his home state. The only record I have of Dr. George W. Upshaw leaving his Virginia home was written by his niece Alice Upshaw Blake (Mrs. J.D. Baker).  daughter of his sister, Mary Ann, in her memoirs she writes:
   "My grandfather (Edwin Upshaw) was a member of the Virginia Assembly  for a number of years ...  He remained a widower for 8 years after my grandmother (Lucy Roane) died; he finally remarried, so he would leave the children with the stepmother while in Richmond. Now the stepmother had a "mammy" who was almost white, while the "mammy" to the first lot of children was very black. Well, one day my Uncle George, who was a lad of 18, came home and found the stepmother's "mammy" whipping the black "mammy", which aroused a furious anger in him. He jumped off his horse, took the whip from "mammy" No. 2, and proceeded to chastise her. He whipped her severely. Then the stepmother called the overseer to whip Uncle George. They had a fight, and when it was over Uncle George jumped on his horse and left home, never to return. When my grandfather (Edwin Upshaw) heard of it, his first thought was to find him ... but he could not prevail on him to return to Virginia."
   Forming an opinion 142 years later, it would indicate  that the lad had a fierce maternal love for the Negro mammy who raised him, and this strong emotion may have made his punishment of the offending negro a little too severe.
   But the master of the house, alone, was responsible for the behavior of his slaves, and as eldest son in his father's absence, George was the master.
   Neither the stepmother or the overseer had any authority to punish him. The fact that his stepmother did  make this attempt, indicates past conflicts.
   It was a soul shattering insult to the pride of a young southern gentleman. The spirit of many generations of challenge meeting Upshaws, and the blood of the turbulent politically minded Roanes, flowed strongly in his veins. He was the descendent of men who had fought and died,  when necessary, for their integrity and it left [a] deep emotional scar on his life.
   Mama told me her father was a man of mild temperment, except when aroused by an injustice. Then he was absolutely independent and fearless in his defense of the right.  The above incident shows this characteristic. 
   He was fiercely opposed to slavery, not because their Negroes were mistreated. In his world he maintained they were like spoilt indulged children. He said "mixing the races and bringing mulatto children into the world was its biggest curse."
   So the wound went deep and Grandfather George, as far as I could find out, never discussed his life in Virginia with even his own household.
   As Edwin's son he was well educated, probably by private tutors. He was also a student by nature, and mother said he debated a long time on whether to practice law or medicine.
   I have a feeling he was self-taught in medicine, for I have never been able to find out where, how or when he received a medical education, although I have contacted  every available source in many states. From some things my mother told me, he did practice some in Georgia and Tennessee before he came to Illinois. Really it didn't take much preparation to be an M.D. over 100 years ago. Drugs were few, and things like cherry tree bark, tansey and senna had to be collected and prepared by the physician. Mama said her father boiled these herbs and also made bread pills by hand for his patients.
   The first authentic history I have of Grandfather Upshaw after he left Virginia , picks him up some five or six years later at Shawneetown (named after the Shawnee Indians) in Gallatin County, Illinois.
   Here, on January 16, 1825,  he married "small, beautiful and dainty" (from family records) Mary Malinda Greenwood. This marriage record was destroyed by the floods of Shawneetown, but can be found at the Illinois Historical Library, Springfield, in a record compiled by Lucy Bender.
   I have not traced the ancestry of Mary Malinda Greenwood. But Greenwoods lived in King & Queen County, Va. not far from George Upshaws boyhood home. Also we find the Forrest Upshaw line married into the Greenwood family in Elbert County, Georgia, where Grandfather lived when he left Virginia. Richard Upshaw, a cousin, married Elizabeth Bradley (See will, Elbert Co., Ga., 1805 of William Bradley). (Editor's note: It was Leroy Upshaw who married Elizabeth Bradley in 1769, Bedford Co, Va.) Elizabeth Bradley Upshaw had two daughters, Nancy and Martha Upshaw, who married Greenwoods and were mentioned in their grandfather's will. Either could have been the mother of Mary Malinda Greenwood. Also, in [on] Aug. 16, 1803, the Elbert Co., Ga., will of Webb Kidd, who was in some way related to the Jeremiah Upshaw line, mentions his granddaughter "Polly" Greenwood (mother, Lucy Greenwood). This Polly could well have been Mary Malinda Greenwood,grandfather's first wife. So it seems likely that Grandfather George held to family tradition s and also married one of his cousins.
   I found many Greenwoods and a Parson and James Upshaw living in Gallatin County. In 1825, Illinois was only seven years old and Shawneetown's first settlers boasted many of the finest families of the south and east.
   Gen LaFayette visited Shawneetown on May 14, 1825. It is reasonable to suppose that on that day George and his wife, M. Malinda, stood in the double line of welcome, extending from the boat where the distinguished party landed, upon a calico covered path strewn with flowers to Rawling's Tavern. There was a salute of 24 guns, and a reception and dinner  following. Names of the attendants  have not been preserved, but family tradition would imply that George Upshaw and his bride were honored guests.
   Federal Census records show Grandfather residing in Jackson County, Illinois in 1830, and gives his family, besides his wife, as two daughters. In August, 1830, he was an unsuccessful candidate for County Commissioner.
   Their eldest child was Narcissa Ann, born May 5, 1826. [She] married May 4, 1843 William L. Loomis, Ohio, born May 13, 1821. I find them living in Peoria, Illinois (where they no doubt were married) in the Federal Census of 1850, also I find her father and his family. The book "Loomis Family in America" 1908 gives the following list of  William Loomis and Narcissa Upshaws nine children:
a) Edgar F., born June 11, 1844, D. Feb. 5, 1848, Peoria.
b) Luella N. (Narcissa) born Dec. 10, 1846; m. June 8,  1865, Elizah Lewis.
c) Frank P., born Feb. 10, 1849.
d) Edward L., born Feb. 1, 1851.
e) Ida E., born Feb. 1, 1853; m. Mch. 2, 1871, Henry Swinhart.
f) William L. (Loomis), born Feb. 3, 1855.
g) Lyman U. (Upshaw), born Aug. 2, 1857.
h) Jesse, born Mch. 4, 1860, D. June 1860.
i) Blanche, born Feb. 26, 1861.
   Sometime after 1850, this Loomis family moved to Abilene, Kansas, then to New York some say, but I have not verified he latter location. I have given much research to this family, but while I found Loomis relatives who helped me find their record in "The Loomis family in America" 1903, I have never been able to contact  any of their descendents., who of course are all descendents of Dr. George W. Upshaw.
   George and Mary Malinda Upshaw's second child was Melissa Jane, born Feb. 7, 1828. In November 1851, she married Charles Loomis, a brother of her sister Narcissa's husband. Charles was born Feb. 5, 1826, died June 6, 1856 at Peoria, Illinois. They had one child, Mary Malinda, (Melie) born Sept. 12, 1852, died 1877, married  John Rogers, no issue.
   Melissa Jane (Upshaw) Loomis married 2nd, Grover. No issue.
   I have been told by a member of the family who knew them, that both Narcissa and Melissa were beautiful women and looked like the Upshaws.
   George and Mary Malinda Upshaw also had three sons, namely: Francis Marion (Frank), George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson, of whom more later.
   It seems Mary Malinda Greenwood Upshaw died in 1846 or 1847, but all early tombstones have been destroyed in Peoria and no record is left.
   On November 12, 1848, Peoria, Ill. (Book 1, page 151) the marriage record of George W. Upshaw, age unknown, and Elizabeth Denbigh (Denby)  28 years. John Chandler, M.G (Methodist Presiding Elder) is recorded. This marriage date is also copied in the Family Bible which is in possession of their son, John Upshaw descendents.
   My grandparents, George and Elizabeth had 7 children and they buried 5 of them. Only my mother and her brother, John were left. (this John's descendents are the ones who own the family Bible.)
   This Upshaw Bible gives their family births and deaths written in many different handwritings as follows:
1) James Bengemin (sic), B. March 19, 1849, D. September 5, 1851.
2) Emma Frances, B. August 13, 1851, M. Joseph Ross Liken, Oct. 10, 1868, D. March 9, 1870.
3) Katie Denby, B. Nov. 14, 1854, D. Feb. 2, 1870.
4) Joshephine Eva, B. Sept. 3, 1857, D. July 18, 1910. (This is my mother, her name was mispelled and written in a different handwriting. Her date of birth was written  1858, then erased and made 1857, (which is correct). She married Adam P. Heminger, Dec. 24, 1877.
5) John Wesley, B. October 7, 1859, M. Ella V. Ogle, Aug. 9, 1883. D. March 31, 1942, at McPherson, Kansas.
6) Ida Virginia, B. March 27, 1862, D. November 12, 1862.
7) William Loomis, B. September 12, 1863, D. June 6, 1870.
   My mother and her brother, John always gave their birthplace as Jerseyville, Ill. Mama said her father owned  and operated a general store there  and that on the day of her birth, Sept. 3, her half brothers, George and Thomas, were sent to this store and instructed  to select a set of dishes for the family, to keep them out of the way during the birth of their new sister. (She was probably delivered  by her father). I have one plate of this set yet. It is white stoneware type and there is an odd figured and lettered trade mark and the indented words " T & R Boore, Syndenham, Shape I. However, I have visited Jerseyville, read its old histories, looked up county records, seen Federal Census records and have found absolutely no record to show the Upshaws ever lived in Jerseyville. But the above locality was given on mother's and her brother's death records. (Editor's note: see 1860 Federal census, Stark Co, Illinois, West Jersey township, page 77, 4 June 1860, where family of G.W. Upshaw is enumerated).
   Mama said her father, besides being a storekeeper, fitted glasses and did dental work. She said he was a poor businessman, and lost his business by signing a  note for a relative. It would indicate he inherited some money and lost it.     

2. Note written by Grace Jared on undated family group sheet:
"During these ten years (1830-1840) there may have been a number (about 5) of births & deaths (of children) as I have been told my grandfather had a total of 17 children by his two wives".

NOTES:

1. For a photograph of George W. Upshaw, see Grace Jared, "They Met Challenges ... With Memoirs", Grace Jared, Ann Arbor, MI, 1968, page 68.)

COMMENTS: 

1. His middle name was likely "Washington", although I don't believe it has ever been proven. There is a possibility that his son, George W. Upshaw Jr. may have spelled his middle name out, with "Jr.", which would be proof of "Washington".

2. No reference to (any) Upshaw in the following Gallatin Co, IL, published records: "Gallatin County, Illinois Will Record I. November 1814-January 1847"; "Gallatin County, Illinois Court Records 1813-1820" & "Early Gallatin County, Illinois Probates Vol. 1".

George W. Upshaw M.D. and Mary Melinda Greenwood were married on 16 Jan 1825 in Shawneetown, Gallatin Co, Illinois. Mary Melinda Greenwood, daughter of James Greenwood and (James, wife of) Greenwood, was born in 1805–1810 in Elbert Co, Georgia. She appeared in the census in 1820 in Gallatin Co, Illinois. She lived in Gallatin Co, Illinois in 1826. Mary appeared in the census in 1830 in Jackson Co, Illinois. She appeared in the census in 1840 in Peoria Co, Illinois. She died in 1844–1848 at the age of 39 in Peoria? Co, Illinois. Mary was buried at an unknown cemetery in Peoria? Co, Illinois. 
DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. Mary Melinda Greenwood was circumstantially a daughter of James Greenwood as she was married in 1825 in Gallatin Co, Illinois, where James Greenwood is the only Greenwood in the 1820 census. No estate or probate records have yet been found for James Greenwood identifying his heirs.

2. 1805-1810: Birth date calculated from age of 10-15 as given in 1820 census of James Greenwood household in Gallatin Co, Illinois; Mary Melinda was married in 1825 when she was obviously of marriageble age. The 1830 & 1840 censuses show that she was born between 1801 & 1810.

3. 1820 (Federal) census, Gallatin Co, Illinois, page 45: James Greenwood household: 1 male under 10; 1 male 10-15; 1 male 16-25; 1 male over 45; 3 females under 10; 1 female 10-15; 1 female 26-44. (Note: the one female, age 10-15 (born 1805-1810) may be Mary Malinda Greenwood; note that Gallatin Co., Illinois, is the county where Mary Melinda Greenwood married George Upshaw in 1825; marriages in that era were normally held at the bride's residence). 

4. 1825, 16 Jan: Marriage date of Melinda Greenwood & George Upshaw, Gallatin Co, Illinois. (Source: Lucy Bender, Marriage Licenses Issued in Gallatin County from 1813 to 1839 , page 8 (typescript in NS DAR Library, Washington, DC, in 1998, page 18).:

5. 1830 census, Jackson Co, IL, page 89, line 34: "George Upshaw": household  1 male 20-30, 1 female 20-30 (Mary Melinda); 2 females under 5 (Narcissa Ann and Melinda Jane). 

6. 1840 census, Peoria Co, IL, Peoria Precinct, page 29: George M.(sic) Upshaw: 1 male under 5 (George W. Upshaw); 2 females 10-15 (Narcissa Upshaw & Melissa Upshaw); 1 male 5-10 (Francis Marion Upshaw); 1 female 30-40 (Mary (Greenwood) Upshaw); 1 male 20-30 (George W. Upshaw); (incorrect; should be 30-40)

7. Notes from descendant Robert Upshaw in March 2008, 4204 Stonehaven Way, Fredericksburg, VA, 22408:  
      There is undocumented information that Mary Malinda Greenwood was a child of James Greenwood, who they say was born in Buckingham Co., Virginia, in 1785, son of John W. Greenwood, Jr., born 9 Aug 1747 in Middlesex Co., Virginia and Anna Bates, born 1741 in New Kent Co., Virginia. They say that James Greenwood was a brother of George C. Greenwood who married Martha Upshaw and lived next door to Parson Upshaw and his family in 1820 (census) Montgomery Co., Tennessee. This would lend credibility to the assumption that Mary Malinda Greenwood and George W. Upshaw would have known each other in Tennessee before Parson moved his family to Illinois. It would also help explain why Mary Malinda (Greenwood) Upshaw traveled from Peoria, Illinois to Tennessee where she had family, to have her first two children. Travel that far in those days for a pregnant woman would not have been easy. They have no information about James Greenwood's wife, so that is still a dead end and Mary Malinda's mother could have been Indian, making Mary Malinda a halfblood but, because her son Thomas Jefferson Upshaw repeatedly insisted that he was half Indian, the possibility exists that Mary Malinda was a fullblood, adopted by James Greenwood and whoever his wife was. If she also was an Indian that would have made it easy for her to know of and adopt a fullblood child, or perhaps Mary Malinda was her child before she married James Greenwood.
   (Additional notes by RWU, February 2011): 
   I do not know why Thomas Jefferson Upshaw's birth state would be shown as "Tennessee" in the 1870 census, because it is shown as "Illinois" in all other references that I have seen. We know that Mary Malinda (Greenwood) Upshaw returned to HER family (?) in Tennessee for the birth of her first three children, i.e., Francis Marion, Narcissa and Melissa, so perhaps that is where the confusion occurred. I have run into Greenwood researchers who show she was the daughter (or at least in the family of) a James Greenwood, son of John W. Greenwood, Jr., (1747-1796) and Anna Bates. But they have had no more success than I have had in tracing Mary Melinda's mother. Since T.J. Upshaw claimed she was a full-blood Indian,  my theory remains that James Greenwood adopted her. If James were actually her father, that would make her a "half-blood" and TJU "one-fourth".

Upshaw, age unknown. However, Grandma Denby Upshaw herself wrote her name as Denby in the Family Bible (printed in 1848) which I have personally seen and copied carefully.

Then, on her death record of 1882, the year is given as 1824.  It seems, in spite of all rthese conflicting data,  the year 1820 should be correct.

The pension applications to which this index applies relate chiefly to Army, Navy and Marine Corps service performed between 1861 and 1916. Most of the records relate to Civil War service; some relate to earlier service by Civil War veterans; others relate to service in the Spanish-American War, the Philippine Insurrection, the Boxer Rebellion, and the Regular Establishment.There are no records of service in Confederate forces. Confederate pensions were granted by Southern states after the war, and the files are State, not Federal.

 (Note by descendant & Upshaw researcher Mr. Tim Hudson in 2011): "I'm convinced that Rebecca Elder Upshaw was listed twice on the 1860 Union Parish census. There are several situations like this in 1860 Union parish. On the first, (dwelling #685) notice that Rebecca is listed with William Elisha and Jonathan Upshaw as well as Mary Upshaw, a woman I cannot identify (perhaps an unmarried daughter of Richard Upshaw and his first wife, or a widow of a male Upshaw relative?). Next door is Ed Upshaw (age 19) and wife; I assume this is her son, Edmund Upshaw.
   In the second listing (dwelling #703) M.E. Upshaw is age 26, listed with "R. Upshaw" (female) who I think is Rebecca, as well as "J. Upshaw". who I think is Jonathan. I do find it odd that the initials are "M.E." and not correctly "W.E.". This is undoubtedly William Elisha Upshaw first (recorded as "M.E."), Rebecca and Jonathan. I say this because William Elisha Upshaw is the only male Upshaw living in Union Parish who owned real estate, other than Alexander Wilson Upshaw (whose family was missed by the 1860 census enumerator). William E. and Jonathan jointly purchased land from their brother in the year 1860.

4. Rebecca "Ann" Upshaw. At this point,  there is absolutely no evidence that her middle name was "Ann". In fact, I doubt that it was "Ann." Her mother had several sisters with unusual middle names, and several of Rebecca's grand daughters remember being told her name as a child and they agree it was something unusual. However, none of them really know what it was.

 (Note by descendant & Upshaw researcher Mr. Tim Hudson in 2011): "I'm convinced that Rebecca Elder Upshaw was listed twice on the 1860 Union Parish census.

6. 1862, 29 July: 
   Died in the __________ Hospital, Charleston, S.C., July the 18th  in the 22nd year of his age, John W. Upshaw, of Union Parish, Louisiana.
   The subject of this sketch was a native of Georgia, but was removed in his youth and attained to mature years in the first named State. He was a soldier in the Confederate service for a year prior to his death, he having volunteered at the commencement of the war, serving a short period at Camp Moore, near New Orleans, Louisiana, in a company subsequently disbanded, and then joining Company D, 4th Louisiana Battalion. 
   This Battalion, after their campaign in Western Virginia, having been ordered to the coast of this State, were sent to aid in the defence [sic] of Charleston. In the engagement which ensued on James Island, the subject of our notice was so severely wounded in one of his legs as to render amputation necessary - this he never survived. but lingered to the above date when he expired. He professed religion some years ago, and united himself to a Baptist church. His prospects for the future, in view of his approaching end, may be seen from an extract taken from a letter, communicating his death to the writer  of this notice: 
   "I am sorry to announce  to you the death of our beloved brother  Upshaw, who departed  this life, in hope of a better, on the night of the 18th, in Charleston, S.C. He sent word for us to do better, and prepare to meet him in glory. I trust these words will be stamped on our hearts, and that our memories will bear in mind our friend, who, without doubt, now seeth not as through a glass darkly, but enjoys the presence of the Lord, face to face, where he can join in praise with those who have gone before. "Physically, brother Upshaw was strong and active. Mentally, those who knew him thought he possessed intelligence superior to his advantages. What he was as a Christian, we who do not see the heart do not wholly know.
   He is now before the Great Judge of all - far above the mists and doubts which obscure the judgment of men. But this we know, that even if he had some infirmities, he evinced a disposition  to serve his Maker, and was seldom indifferent to the subject of religion. In view of these considerations, those who survive him have "hope in his death."
   T.L. Cunningham, General Hospital, Macon, Georgia.

11. 1902, 20 December: JOHN S. UPSHAW. December 20, 1902 - Ordered to be printed. (footnoted: S R - 57-2 - Vol. 1-33).
   Mr. Burton, from the Committee on Pensions, submitted the following Report (To accompany H.R. 8576).
   The Committee on Pensions, to whom was referred the bill (H.R.8576) granting a pension to John S. Upshaw, have examined the same and report:
   The report of the Committee on Invalid Pensions of the House of Representatives, hereto appended, is adopted and the passage of the bill as amended by the House committee is recommended.
   The House report is as follows:
   This bill proposes to pension John S. Upshaw, late captain of Douglas County, Mo., Home Guards, and late a private in J. Jay's company, Missouri Volunteers, Osage Indian war of 1837, at $50 per month.
   No claim has ever been filed in the Pension Bureau by the beneficiary named in this bill.
   It appears from a certificate of the adjutant-general of the State of Missouri, filed with your committee, that John S. Upshaw was commissioned as a captain in the Douglas County, Mo., Home Guards on July 28, 1861, and thatr he served until October 13, 1861.
   The records of the War Department show that the Hawkins Taylor Commission under the joint resolutions of Congress of July 12, 1862, and February 16, 1863, allowed pay to John S. Upshaw as captain of an independent cavalry company, Douglas County, Mo., Home Guards, for the period of one month and fifteen days as actual military services rendered the United States, which service was rendered  between July 28 and October 13, 1861.
   That Department further reported that there was no record of Captain Jay's company of Missouri volunteers during the Osage Indian war of 1837.
   There has also been filed with your committee the certificate of the clerk of the county court of Douglas County, Mo., setting forth that the name of John S. Upshaw was borne upon the rolls of the inmates of the county poor farm of Douglas County, Mo.; that said Upshaw is now, and has been for a long time past, an inmate of that poor farm, and supported by the county as a pauper, and that there was no one legally bound for his support.
   Title to pension under the act of June 27, 1890, could not obtain in this case for the reason that the officer did not serve ninety days during the war of the rebellion.
   There has also been filed with your committee the following statement of Hon. W.D. Vandiver, the member who introduced this bill: Washington, May 2, 1902.
      Gentlemen: I desire to submit a brief statement of the condition of Capt. John S. Upshaw, the proposed beneficiary in H.R. bill 8576.
      His military service commenced in the Osage Indian war of 1837, but the War Department has no record of any service in that war. His service in the civil war is on record, but is not sufficient to entitle him to pension under existing law, because a portion of his service was not credited on record, and because a portion of it was in a State organization. But his own company of independent home guards rendered important service along the southern border of Missouri  in 1862.
      His physical condition is such that he is totally disabled  from rheumatism, diarhea, and loss of sight,  being almost blind. He is now over 80 years old, very weak, and almost entirely helpless. I have seen him myself within the last year, and his condition excited pity.
      I am also reliably informed  that his financial condition is very pitiable; that he once occupied a position as a prominent business man in his county, an influential citizen in comfortable circumstances, but is now reduced to extreme poverty, and is being supported by the charity of the county as an inmate of the county poor farm
      Hoping this statement, with the official statements of his record, will warrant favorable action  by the committee, I remain, Very respectfully, W.D. Vandiver.
      The Committee on Invalid Pensions, House of Representatives.

      In view of the circumstances set forth above, your committee believes that the requirement of ninety days' service during the war of the rebellion may well be waived in this case, and that relief to the extent of granting to the beneficiary the maximum rating under the act of June 27, 1890, namely, $12 per month, should be granted, and the bill is therefore reported back with the recommendation that it pass after the same shall have been amended as follows:
      Strike out after the enacting clause  and insert in lieu thereof the following:
       "That the Secretary of the Interior be, and he is hereby authorized and directed to place on the pension roll, subject to the provisions and limitations of the pension laws, the name of John S. Upshaw, late captain Independent Cavalry Company, Douglas County, Missouri, Home Guards, and pay him a pension at the rate of  twelve dollars per month."

Upshaw, better known as "Uncle Severe," at the residence of Mrs. Mary Brown 3 1/2 miles south of Ava, on Friday, Jan. 20, 1911. "Uncle Severe was born in Tennessee May 28, 1813, and in all probability was the oldest man in the county. Mr. Upshaw has spent the greater portion of his life in Douglas county. In an early day he owned and cultivated one of the best farms in Douglas county, located on Fox creek near Denlow.
   After farming successfully for a number of years he embarked in the Mercantile business and was one of the leading merchants of Denlow for over 20 years. "Uncle Severe" built the flouring mill at Denlow and sold same to Wilson and Curnutt. Mr. Upshaw was a devoted christian, being a member of the M.E. church. So zealous was he for the work of the Master that he built a church house at his own expense and donated it to M.E. people.
   It will be remembered by his many friends that Mr. Upshaw was at one time one of the wealthiest men in the county. 
   He was a veteran of the civil war and was placed on the pension list by special act through W.D. Vandever. for the past 6 or 7 years he has been making his home with Mrs. Mary Brown and her son Burr Dotson, 3 1/2 miles south of Ava. Long live his memory.

COMMENTS: 

1. About 1850s and early 1860's much unrest and many disagreements were developing over slavery. On July 28, 1861, Captain John Sevier Upshaw organized his independent cavalry into the Douglas County Home Guards with headquarters in the little log courthouse at Vera Cruz. This unit consisted of seventy five loyal men. Their names are as follows (Aug. 7, 1861): 
   Captain John S. Upshaw (and other names)
   These men were all listed as Union troops under General Lyons. They were organized to prevent the Rebels from organizing and to disarm those who were disloyal. The Douglas County Home Guards furnished their own horses and arms. They disbanded on October 13, 1861, after their ammunition had been exhausted and they joined forces with Colonel Phelps Missouri Volunteers at Rolla.

COMMENTS: 

1. "A Reminiscent History of the Ozark Region" states that Leroy Upshaw was killed by ambush in 1876 (sic-1856) while he was tying his horse, in Rockbridge, Missouri, where he had gone to mill. The assailant's name was said to be well known but, as in other cases of that period, enforcement of the law was not always administered to guilty ones involved, so nothing was done about this case".

2. Buried at home place on Brush Creek, Douglas Co, MO.

3. (provided by Mr. Jim R. Souder, 1989):  Leroy "Lee" Upshaw was killed in 1856 at old Rockbridge settlement on Bryant Creek, which was the county seat of Douglas County but was destroyed during the War Between the States. The present village of Rockbridge is located on Spring Creek where the mill was built in 1868. Leroy was reputedly hired killed by William N. Alsup, who then married his widow, Lydia Collins (not Parsons) Upshaw in the winter of 1858, which is verified by an affadavit completed by William's brother Moses Lock Alsup for William's widow who was filing for a pension on William's Civil War service.

329.  William "Doc" Upshaw (CSA) was born in 1817 in Wilkes Co, Georgia. He appeared in the census in 1830 in Butler Co, Alabama. He appeared in the census in 1840 in Butler Co, Alabama. Doc appeared in the census in 1850 in Butler Co, Alabama. He appeared in the census in 1860 in Butler Co, Alabama. He appeared in the census in 1870 in Montgomery Co, Alabama. Doc appeared in the census in 1880 in Robertson Co, Texas. He died on 12 Aug 1885 at the age of 68 in Robertson Co, Texas. He was buried at Suggs cemetery in Robertson Co, Texas. 
DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. 1817: birthdate and birthplace determined from "Soldier's Discharge" statement in his Compiled Service Record, dated 29 May 1847: "was born in Wilkes County, Georgia, is thirty years of age, five ft. 8 1/2 inches high, dark complexion, dark eyes, black hair". Also, his age is given as 33 in the 1850 census. This is substantiated by the fact that "Leroy Upshaw" is found on the 1817 Wilkes County tax digest in Capt. Henry Jossey's Dist., with no land.

2. 1820: Birthdate as given on grave marker, Suggs cemetery, Hearne, Robertson Co, Texas: William Upshaw, Pvt., Co. K, 5 Ala. Inf., Confederate States Army, 1820-1897. (Source: photograph of marker on www.findagrave.com, May 2016; Note: Birth and death dates on this marker are obviously incorrect).

3. 1820 census: location of Leroy Upshaw unknown, but presumed to be in Alabama, where the 1820 census is not extant for most counties. Butler county was created in 1819 from Conecuh & Monroe Cos., Conecuh was created in 1818 from Monroe Co. which was created in 1814, so early Monroe & Conecuh counties should be investigated for all Upshaws. Monroe county lost all probate records in 1832, but other early records, especially deeds and tax, may survive. Leroy Upshaw is not found in the Bureau of Land Management records for Alabama, so he apparently received no land under that office.

4. 1830 census, Butler Co, AL, page 295: (Leroy Upshaw household): 1 male age 10-15 (William, born 1817).

COMMENTS:

1. The origin of the nickname "Doc" is unknown. 

2. A query by Laura Upshaw (email: lala@texas.net) on the GenForum "Upshaw" surname site in April 1999 states: Looking for information on William "Doc" Upshaw. I think he may have been born in South Carolina to Leroy & Catherine Upshaw. William married Margaret Eastridge (or Estrage) in Butler Co., Alabama. They had five children ... the only name I know is Minor Hubby, my ggrandfather. William Upshaw died in Robertson Co., Texas in the 1890s (I don't have exact year). He fought in the Civil War in Company "K" of the 5th Alabama Infantry. (I've contacted her on 27 Apr 1999, sent her Family Group sheet of William & Louise Upshaw of Butler Co, AL; have had no response as of 7 July 2000).

She again was united in marriage to John H. Overton in 1879. He died in 1893. Aunt Ruth, as she was familiarly known, united with the Primitive Baptist Church in 1864, and has lived a faithful member until her death. She was deprived of attending church for several years on account of being very feeble. She departed this life on the 14th of July, 1922, aged 88 years. The funeral was conducted by Elder Thomas T. France. (Note: Ruth Upshaw was not born in Virginia; see census returns; her first marriage was to "Sinclair" Butler, not "Richard" Butler; Sinclair Butler appears in the 1870 census, so his decease date of 1868 as given here is apparently incorrect).

RESEARCHERS:

1. (1999) from Kathy Stewart <kis@hom.net>: "Pension papers of James Upshaw (Union Civil War), states that James Upshaw of Co. E, 15th Indiana volunteer infantry, of Posey Co., Ind., born in Dade Co., Ga., was married twice, both deceased by 1897 at time of answering pension questionaire. The first wife's maiden name was Forrester. The only marriages I have, to date, are to (1) Elizabeth Autlew and (2) Matilda Edwards. These I verified in Evansville, Ind., while visiting this summer. I believed the first wife to be my lineage, as a child was born just prior to Matilda showing up some three months after the baby was born in Dec. (what year, where?). So I presumed that Elizabeth died during child birth. Matilda then married James and raised my 4th Great grandfather, Andrew, who was born in 1858; later the two having a son of their own named Walter J. Upshaw, born 1872. James pension papers states that his first wife was a Forrester and that her descent was Creek Indian(!). James apparently married (where?) his third wife Susan Stone, widow of Thomas Stone, in 1908. She received his pension after 1913 when he died (where?).
   James Upshaw also lived in Griffin, IN, Nashville, TN, and Scott Co., MO - the latter is where he died, burial site unknown. (Note: I replied to her via email on 9 Sep 1999, attaching my Family Group Sheet). She adds that James Upshaw died in 1913, Illmo, Scott Co, MO. (cemetery records there need to be checked)

James Upshaw [USA] and Elizabeth Autlew were married on 1 Apr 1858 in Posey Co, Indiana. Elizabeth Autlew was born circa 1837. She died in 1858 at the age of 21 in Posey Co, Indiana. She was buried at an unknown cemetery in Posey Co, Indiana.

COMMENTS:

1. Rebecca ("Becca") Bradley may not have been a child of Andrew & Amelia (Upshaw) Bradley, who are only shown with one female child in the 1830 & 1840 censuses, although Becca is shown in their household in 1850.

2. The only marriage record for a "Rebecca Morgan" is in 1844 to William Lankford; there is no marriage record for a Rebecca Bradley in Monroe Co (Note:  check for a Rebecca ______ who 
married a _______ Morgan prior to 1850).

Rebecca "Becca" Bradley and (given name unk) Morgan were married before 1850 in Monroe? Co, Tennessee. (given name unk) Morgan was born circa 1824. He was buried at an unknown cemetery. 1. It is not certain that the "Becca Morgan", age 26, who was in the household of Permelia Bradley in 1850 was her daughter; was Becca's Morgan husband dead at this time?

COMMENTS:

COMMENTS:

1. No grave marker has been located for William Thomas Upshaw in Barbour Co, AL, and does not appear in printed versions of Spring Hill Methodist or in the Upshaw Family Cemetery, near Spring Hill (see UFJ, Vol II, page 87). No grave marker for him is found in www.findagrave, May 2017.

2. Some information contributed in 1975 by Mrs. J.H. Mitchell, 404 College Ave., Clemson, SC, which includes the notation that she believes he died circa 1863, possibly in Confederate Army, which needs verification). This is not correct, as Barbour Co, AL, Orphans Record Book 7, page 138, has the bond of Leroy Upshaw as administrator of William T. Upshaw, deceased, dated 21 May 1855 (see UFJ, Vol II, page 89); I believe this may have become confused with a "William T. Upshaw" of Virginia, who died about 1863.

   Eufaula, Barbour County, Ala. Aug. 15, 1865.
   To his Excellency, Andrew Johnson, President of the United States. Sir, Having subscribed the oath of amnesty as prescribed in taces(?), Proclamation of the 29th May 1865 as will appear by the original hereto annexed, I respectfully submit this special application  for such clemency as may be extended to me consistently with the facts in my case and the peace and dignity of the United States. 
   I am a Planter by profession, forty two years old, never was a politician, never held any civil or military office under the so called Confederate States. At the time of the passage of the so called Ordinance of Secession in this state & indeed ever since September 1859 I was in a most precarious state of health and of unsound mind & memory in consequence of a terrible gunshot wound which I had received in the head & face and I have scarcely any recollection of events. I knew nothing about the passage of the Ordinance of Secession & did not vote for members to the Convention. I took no part in the war, though I contributed to the support of the soldiers by money & provisions.
   I am excluded from the benefits off the amnesty because I am worth over twenty thousand Dollars ($20,000) valuation of taxable property & for no other reason.
   I wish to be henceforth a peaceable and  legal citizen of the United States. I did not in arrest (sic?). I did not order or advise the taking of Mt. Vernon Arsenal or Ft. Morgan or aid therein. I have not served on any vigilance committee during the war. No person has been hung or shot by my order for any offence whatever. I have not shot or hung (or orded (sic) therein) any person for any offense whatever. I have not ordered or engaged in hunting with dogs any person supposed to be disloyal to the Confederate States. No proceedings have been instituted against any property under the confiscation act. No property belonging to me is in possession of the United States authorities as abandoned property or otherwise. The Government has not taken possession of any part of property. No proceedings are pending against me in any of the U.S. Courts for treason or conspiracy against the government of the United States. (signed) LeRoy Upshaw.
   Sworn & Subscribed before me this 12th day of Sep. A.D. 1865.
   F. Grabenhorst, Capt. Comdg. Det 49th Mo. Vol. Inf.

The State of Alabama, Barbour County.
   I, Leroy Upshaw, a citizen of Barbour County, do solemnly swear in the presence of Almighty God that I will henceforth faithfully defend the constitution of the United States and the Union of the States thereunder; & that I will in like manner abide by & faithfully support all laws and proclamations which have been made during the existing rebellion with reference to the emancipation of slaves, so help me God.
   (signed) LeRoy Upshaw.

         Levi Pierce was born 1810 in South Carolina and is thought to be one of the earliest settlers in the Pine Log Georgia area. He came from Elbert County, Georgia or western South Carolina with James Upshaw and Martin Maxwell, his brother-in-law around 1834-1836. Pierce is listed on the Federal census of Cass County, Georgia, 1840.
         Marriage records of Cass/Bartow County show that Levi Pierce married Matilda Upshaw, daughter of James and Lucinda (Ham) Upshaw, 8 December 1836 in Cass County. Matilda was born in Elbert County, Georgia in 1815.
         Children born to the marriage and approximate dates of birth are as follows: 
      Frances Ann, born 1839, George born 1843, Georgia Ann born 1845, Jannette born 1849 and Flora D. born 1852.
         Georgia Ann married James M. Dysart, 6 September 1866 in Bartow County, Georgia.
         Frances married Alexander C. Say, 24 December 1857 in Cass County. Their daughter, Matallice Neugenia Say, was born in Cass County 26 September 1858. Alexander Say died in Richmond, Virginia military hospital, December 28, 1862. Frances later married Pinckney Brutus Tisdal in Hot Springs County, Arkansas in 1871. It is not known to this writer who George, Janette or Flora D. married. 
         Levi Pierce was a millwright according to the 1850 Federal Census records. He and his brother-in-law Aulsey Vincent, are given credit for the fine example of craftsmanship that is part of the Pine Log United Methodist Church building, particularly the alter, in a book entitled History of the Pine Log Methodist Church, by Garrison and Mahan. On this church’s roster 1859-1863 Levi Pierce is listed as a member; however his membership was removed by letter in November 1862. It is not known what church, if any, that he attached with at that time; Matilda Pierce remained a member of this church, as did Lucinda Upshaw, her mother, and several other members of the Upshaw family.
         Levi Pierce’s family was enumerated in Bartow county in 1870. At this time, Frances (Pierce) Say and her daughter Metallice Neugenia Say are listed in this home. Sometime after the census was taken Frances (Pierce) Say and her daughter and George Pierce, Frances’ brother, moved to Hot Springs County, Arkansas.
         Levi Pierce died in 1886. Matilda (Upshaw) Pierce died in 1890. Both are buried in the Pine Log United Methodist Church Cemetery. Their daughter, Georgia Ann, her husband James Dysart and other Dysarts are buried on the Pierce-Dysart family plot, along with Levi and Matilda.
         During 1994, no Pierce family members have been located in the Pine Log area, although many descendants of Frances Pierce and Metallice Say live in Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma. - Submitted by J.C. and Zelda Fisher, 1314 SW 9th St., Cooper, Texas. (J.C. is a great-great grandson of Levi and Matilda Pierce. His grandmother was Metallice Neigenia Say, daughter of Frances Pierce Say and Alexander C. Say).

   Mrs. Elizabeth Upshaw, widow of the late John A. Upshaw, died at her home in Cass County, Georgia, 13th February, 1859, aged 33 years, after a short but painful illness. 
   She joined the M. E. Church in 1855, and so continued in its communion to her death, humbly adorning her profession by a course which characterises the Christian.
   Lizzie was emphatically a good woman, innocent, harmless, kind and benevolent - a devoted mother and affectionate sister; modest, retiring and unassuming in her manners and disposition; was loved most by those who knew here best - but death claimed her for his victim in the noon tide of her life, leaving William, Lou, Jackson and Hylenia - four interesting dear orphan children to pass through this sinful world without father or mother, to lean upon, as was left their father, aunt and uncle, when they, too, were small children. May God, who is all in all, be more to them than they have lost in a dear mother.
   A short time before she died she asked her aged mother to give her youngest child (Hylenia) to Mr. and Mrs. Price -  that they would be to her a father and mother. She raised her hands and praised her Lord and Saviour - said she was happy, and that she loved everybody. We thank the Lord for this, and in Christian meekness bow to this dispensation of our Heavenly Father and praise His holy name for the assurance that our dear departed sister has exchanged the sufferings of this earth for the joys of Heaven, and may the Lord help us to prepare to meet her there.

7. Although there has been speculation in the past that Littleton A. Upshaw died in Confederate military service, the evidence does not support this. The only "L. Upshaw" found in the Confederate Compiled Service Records is an "L. Upshur" (sic) who served in the Confederate military as a Conscript officer. The Compiled Service Record of the "L. Upshur" shows that he was a Private & his residence was Carrollton, Mississippi. The "Roll of Prisoners of War" shows that he was surrendered at Citronelle, Alabama, by Lieut. Gen. R. Taylor, C.S.A., on May 4, 1865 and was paroled at Gainesville, Alabama on May 13, 1865. (Source: National Archives, Confederate Compiled Service Records. microfilm M269. roll 424). 
   Apparently, the death of Littleton Upshaw in December 1862, during the war years, was only coincidental; no military record has been found for him.

Littleton Arthur Upshaw MD and Nancy Biles were married in 1860 in Giles Co, Tennessee. Nancy Biles was born in 1840 in Tennessee. She appeared in the census in 1860 in Giles Co, Tennessee. She was buried at an unknown cemetery.

3. Capt. Samuel C. (Crockett) Upshaw, Counselor at Law. According to Bacon the greatest trust between man and man is the trust of giving counsel, and in the profession of law the most brilliant talents, most extensive knowledge and the strongest sentiments - moral and spiritual and material - are brought into play, and it's power for good or evil is vast and invincible. Capt. Upshaw is an Attorney of far more than ordinary ability, and is in the active practice of his profession at Hillsboro, Texas.
   He was born in Little Rock, Arkansas, Jan. 31, 1840, a son of Col. A. M. M. Upshaw, a native of Essex County, Virginia, who moved to middle Tennessee when a young man, from which state he volunteered in the Indian War of 1836, serving against the Seminoles in Florida, after which he was appointed agent for the Chickasaws by Van Buren and assisted in moving this Tribe to the country it now occupies. He remained agent in charge of this Tribe for ten years, at which time he came to Texas, settling in Washington County, which he afterwards represented in the Texas legislature two terms, and was a prominent citizen of the County until his death, which occurred in 1877. His wife was Ann H. Crockett - a native of Williamson County, Tenn., but she is now a resident of Houston, Texas, and has reached the advanced age of 87 years. This lady was his second wife and became the mother of the subject of this sketch.

COMMENTS:

1. (per grand nephew in 1998, Charles Roland Upshaw (email: upshawcr@plu.edu), George Washington Upshaw changed his name to Johnny ("Buddy") Meadows, who also states that "I don't know what Buddy's real name was, as he changed it to Buddy Meadows after riding with Black Bart's gang. He was later Sheriff of Christmas, AZ". 
   (Editor's note: This last account about "riding with Black Bart's gang" is highly unlikely; George was born in 1872; Charles Earle Bowles (aka "Black Bart") robbed stagecoaches in northern California and southern Oregon from 1875 until 1883, when he was captured and served six years in prison, afterwards retiring from crime. Moreover, Bowles usually acted alone and is not known to have any accomplices in his criminal career. George Upshaw, born 1872, was only eleven years old at the time of Bowles' last robbery in 1883, so it is extremely unlikely that George Upshaw, at age eleven, was an accomplice. Furthermore, George was in the McCullough Co., Texas census, seven years old, in 1880). 

2. It may be that George W. Upshaw. born 1872, did not change his name to "Buddy Meadows" at all; no evidence is known for this, so it may be spurious - TOB.

Heart Attack Is Fatal To Col. Ebb P. Upshaw, 88
	Col. Ebb P. Upshaw, prominent Monroe resident, died early Sunday at the Walton County hospital, victim of a heart attack which he suffered the day before. He was 88.
	Funeral services for Mr. Upshaw were held at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday from the E. L. Almand Chapel at Social Circle.
	Additional details concerning Mr. Upshaw will be found on the Social Circle Page in today’s paper.

13. 1955, 28 Sep: (Source: Walton Tribune, Wednesday, 28 September 1955 - Social Circle News): Funeral Rites for Ebb P. Upshaw Here
	Impressive funeral rites for Mr. Ebb Pharr Upshaw, of Monroe, were held at the Almand Funeral Home in Social Circle, Monday, two-thirty afternoon. The Rev. C. W. Howard, Pastor of the First Baptist Church, was the officiating Minister. Sacred hymns were sung sweetly by the choir group.
	Pallbearers were: Messrs. L. Stanton Duval, Roy Malcom, Derst Hale, John Hogan, W. B. Stephens, Adair Read.
	Beautiful were the floral offerings paying silent and lovely tribute to this beloved gentleman, a native of Walton County and long time resident of Social Circle.
	Interment was in Circle View Cemetery with the E. L. Almand Company, funeral directors, in charge of arrangements.
	The death of Mr. Upshaw occurred at Walton County Hospital about two o’clock, Sunday morning, where he was carried early Saturday morning, after suffering a heart attack in his room, at Hotel Monroe. Mr. and Mrs. Sanders Upshaw were called and reached the hospital around five o’clock Saturday morning when his condition was considered rather critical, yet he was conscious during the day. The frail body sank into rest several hours later.
	Born April 5th, 1887, Walton County, he was the son of the late John Phillips Upshaw and Mary Stark Selman Upshaw, making his age 88 years 8 months and some days at the time of his death.
	Following his high school education in Social Circle, he entered the University of Georgia, Athens, where he was a member of the Delta Tau Delta Fraternity. At an early age he was graduated with honors and returned to Social Circle where he taught in the local schools. He returned to the University of Georgia, after one year with our schools, and entered the Law School from which he was graduated, receiving Bachelor of Law degree. He was soon located in Atlanta, where he practiced his profession for many years. Retiring from the practice of Law in later years, he resided in hotels here and in Covington, devoting his time to farming interests and outdoor life.
	Following his retirement from farming interests, he had made his home in Monroe, at Hotel Monroe, several years. There as elsewhere, he made many friends who are grieved at his death. Of remarkable agility for one of his years, he was able to be out every day, taking his usual long walks about town and on Friday he visited his brother, Mr. Sanders Upshaw, and Mrs. Upshaw in Social Circle. He was a princely man, one possessed of most admirable traits which won for him the love of children as well as those of mature years. While his death is mourned by many loved ones, it will be treasured as a life filled with deeds of kindness and Golden Years.
	He is survived by one sister, Mrs. Charles A. Sockwell, of Covington, GA., and one brother, Sanders Upshaw, of Social Circle, GA., sister-in-law, Mrs. Sanders Upshaw, and several nieces and a nephew, and other relatives, who are being tendered the sincere sympathy of many friends in their bereavement.
	Among relatives from out-of-town attending funeral rites were Mrs. Sockwell and daughter, Mrs. J. F. Biggers, of Covington; Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Gannon, of Athens; Mr. Sanders Hale, of North Georgia College, Dahlonega.
	The Walton Tribune family joins numbers of friends in extending sincere sympathy to the bereaved loved ones.

8. 1863, July 3: Address before the Walton County, Georgia, Confederate Veterans, August 2nd, 1904; reprinted from the Walton Tribune (date unknown; contributed by Dr. Charles B. Upshaw, Jr., Atlanta, Ga.). Judge George Hillyer commanded, as Captain, Company “C”, 9th Georgia Volunteer Infantry Regiment of Walton County, Georgia, of which Robert A. Upshaw was a member; the following is an account of fighting at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, around Baughman’s Battery on July 3, 1863, with Union cavalry of Kilpatrick on the Confederate right flank.
	“...I moved the regiment to the position that had been occupied by the thin line of the 1st Texas and there, taking advantage of a rock wall, we held the position for several hours, expecting to be again attacked, but the enemy did not come again. The picket fighting was still going on in front all along the line. The rock wall was on the hill side, sloping toward the west. It was July and the sun was intensely hot. In front of us was a wounded Yankee cavalryman. He was crying piteously for water and we wanted to relieve him if we could, but it was as much as any man’s life was worth to expose himself before the wall. You might put up your hat and a bullet would strike it in less than a minute. Littleton Rains and Robert Upshaw, two of my men, were of the litter corps and had come up and laid down with us behind the rock wall. Their litter was bloody, but just enough white left about it to make it barely possible that it might be used as a flag of truce. So I told Rains to try to bring in the wounded Federal and to wave a flag over the wall; but nobody had a handkerchief, or at least one that was white, not even as white as the cloth of the litter. So I told Rains to hold his litter up over the wall and wave it back and forth. He did so, and in two or three minutes the firing from the enemies’ sharpshooters slackened and finally ceased altogether. I then told Rains to get up on the wall and wave his litter as if for a signal; and some of the enemy stepped out in open view. Not a shot was fired at him or them. Upshaw, the other litter bearer, then joined Rains and they got over the wall and went to where the wounded Yankee was; brought him in and laid him down behind the wall; and we gave him water, and what comfort we could. This scene was probably witnesses (sic) by hundreds of Federals; and any one of them might have picked off Rains or Upshaw, whilst in the act, or our men might have shot some of them; but not a gun was fired. 
	As soon, however, as the incident was over, the Federal sharpshooters, seeming to know and understand exactly what it was; and that the reason for it had ended, broke out again in the most business-like way and the fight went on as before. These truces to which I have alluded, were by no means exceptional; but in army experience they occurred often, and such a thing as cowardly treachery under the circumstances, or a mean shot fired, taking advantage of the situation thus arising was almost, or quite, unknown. Such things could not happen but for the fact that the voice of humanity in Anglo-Saxon hearts triumphed over their temptations. Doubtless the rank and file of the Federal army was better in their home and fireside teachings, and in the humanity developed in their childhood, than some of their generals.

This lineage is incorrect; Mrs. Preston Upshaw indicates this was from Mrs. Cora Lou (Upshaw) Herndon, but there is no documentation. there is NO "George" listed as a child in this household in 1880.

9. 1884, 11 July: The Carroll County Times, Mrs. Dorothy D. Upshaw obituary.
   The subject of this notice departed this life at her home in Carrollton on Wednesday, June 25th, after several months of painful affliction. She was born in Newton County in September 1840, was baptized by her own father, Rev. Isaac Hanby (sic) in 1869, into the fellowship of the Primitive Baptist Church, married Mr. George N. (sic) Upshaw in 1861. She moved with her husband to this city in 1880. She was all that a wife and mother could be to her devoted husband and children. Patient under her severe afflictions, she illustrated the mighty power of the grace of God, to sustain and to keep the soul from words or even thoughts of impatience.
   She often spoke of the bright hopes she had of acceptance with God, and admonished and encouraged her household to trust in the Saviour. Many are the precious testimonials she left her household and children, that her peace was made with God, and with words of heavenly admonition to meet her in heaven, her saintly spirit took its flight to the haven of eternal rest.
		“Sister thou wert mild and lovely,
			Gentle as the summer breeze,
		Pleasant as the air of even
			As it floats among the trees.”
Rest with thy Saviour forever, a devoted husband and two sons and a daughter mourn her loss. The Lord comfort them. Pastor.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. Notes by Mrs. Preston C. Upshaw, 1971, on her family group sheet for this family (typescript in Georgia Archives):
   Information obtained from Mrs. Cora Lou (Upshaw) Herndon, Mrs. Sanders Upshaw and several other grandchildren. Most of these think Susan Antine Upshaw was the daughter of Francis Byrd, second wife of Forrest Tinsley Upshaw, but Mrs. Sanders Upshaw thinks she was the daughter of the first wife, Martha Phillips. (Note: Susan A., born in 1848, was a daughter of Frances Bird, the second wife of Forrest Tinsley Upshaw, who were married in 1831 - TOB). The Strouds lived in Texas; M. M. Stephens lived in North Carolina, Conyers and Atlanta, Ga.; J. Golden Stephens lived in Cleveland, Ohio, Louisville, Ky., and Atlanta, Ga. 

2. XI. Susan Antine UPSHAW, b. 6 Jan 1843 (date as in 1850 Walton County Census where she was listed as 7 years old. Gravestone in Sardis Cemetery gives her birth date as 6 Jan 1848). She was married 17 Dec. 1866 (sic - correctly 1865) to Confederate soldier, Abner J. Stephens who d. in Nov. 1892 and was buried in first New Hope Methodist Church yard, Walton County. They had seven children:
a. Tallulah Stephens, m. Charley Stroud when he was 18 years old. They lived in Texas.
b. R. Hester Stephens, b. 1872, d. in 1943 and is buried on the Stephens lot in Sardis Church cemetery. On that lot was buried a Mae Stephens who, we believe, was Lizzie Mae (Smith) Stephens, wife of R. Hester Stephens and daughter of J. Troy Smith (above).
c. W. B. Stephens, who was married twice.
d. John Tinsley Stephens, b. 16 Nov. 1874, d. 10 Feb 1961. He was married to Lena Harris, who might have been the daughter of J. Troy Smith. If so, John Tinsley Stephens was her second husband.
e. M. M. Stephens, lived in North Carolina, Conyers and Atlanta, Ga.
f. J. Golden Stephens, lived in Cleveland, Ohio; Louisville, Ky, and Atlanta, Ga.
g. Noran Stephens.

15. 1919, 16 May: The Conyers Times, issue of 5/16/1919: REV. UPSHAW DIES.
   Saturday morning at a sanitarium in Atlanta, where he had been taken for treatment, occurred the death (on the operating table) of one of Walton’s most honorable and highly honored citizens, Rev. James Berrien Upshaw, of Between.
   Some few weeks ago, Mr. Upshaw suffered a nervous breakdown, the result of which rendered him tremendously nervous and that caused such uneasiness upon the part of his physician and friends as to call for the examination of a specialist in Atlanta, with the result that an operation was recommended. To this Mr. Upshaw would not agree until it was proven that such was absolutely necessary to prolong his life. The operation was performed last Saturday and proved a success but, owing to his broken down state of health, he could not survive the shock and died while under the influence of anaesthetics (sic), in spite of the most proficient and careful attention that could be shown him by physicians, trained nurses and loved ones.
   The funeral of Mr. Upshaw, conducted by Elder R.L. Cook, assisted by Elder Livesy, attended by a thousand or more people, took place Sunday afternoon at Bay Creek church, near Loganville. The interment took place in the church yard cemetery. - Walton News.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. Harrison Filmore Upshaw, seventeenth child of Forrest Tinsley Upshaw, was born at Between, Walton Co., Georgia on 1 April 1858. For the information about his family I am indebted to Harrison Francis Upshaw who copied records from the Family Bible and to his sisters, Mrs. Leon Barnett and Mrs. Mary Bernice (Upshaw) Stevenson.
   On 11 Nov. 1883, Uncle Harrison was married to Elizabeth Jane (Lizzie) Francis at Princeton, Georgia. Cousin Cora Lou (Upshaw) Herndon wrote me that she remembered her mother and father telling her of the wedding, which they had attended. Cousin Cora Lou - about 4 years old at the time - always called Uncle Harrison's wife Elizabeth. Since the Upshaw relatives were so very numerous and Cousin Cora Lou knew more about them than anyone else, her parents probably talked very often about members of the family. Her father, Uncle Berrien, being the youngest child prior to Forrest Tinsley's third marriage, was near the ages of Henry Clay, Harrison Filmore and Preston Calhoun Upshaw, Tinsley's three youngest children, and so was closer to them than to the older children of the family. There is much to tell about the Francises. Preston Calhoun Upshaw was married to Elizabeth's sister, Celena (Lena) Francis so the offspring of Tinsley's last two children were double first cousins.
   Uncle Harrison and Aunt Lizzie lived in Walton County, near the Tinsley Upshaw home place for several years. All of their eight children - 5 girls and 3 boys -  were born there.
   Uncle Harrison and Aunt Lizzie moved from Walton County to Valdosta when some of the girls were in college there.  In later years, they lived in  Decatur, Georgia. Uncle Harrison died 22 May 1942 and Aunt Lizzie 13 March 1949. After Uncle Harrison's death she lived with her daughter, Eunice Underwood, in Ashville [North Carolina} where she died. Uncle Harrison and Aunt Lizzie are both buried at Sardis.

SECONDARY SOURCE:

1.  XIV. Preston Calhoun Upshaw (6th generation from Capt. William Upshaw).
   Forrest Tinsley and Judith (England) Upshaw's  third son, and Tinsley's 18th child, was Preston Calhoun Upshaw always called "Callie", born 24 May 1860. He grew up in Walton County, near Sardis Church (see below) which was a guiding influence  in his life. After his father's death , at age 82, 1 June 1878 he continued to live in the home place, caring for his mother  until her death at age 66. She died 4 June 1887  of dysentery. When Benjamin Adkins Upshaw, Callie's older half brother,  died 1 Aug. 1885, his widow, Susie (Garrett) Upshaw, with her children, went to live with Callie and his mother. His youngest child, a two year old daughter died in the same dysentery epedemic, as did also Amelia Garrett, 16 year old daughter of James and Mary (Upshaw) Tuck Garrett, who lived a short distance away.
   Uncle Harrison (Harrison Filmore Upshaw)  had also continued to live at home after his marriage in 1883 to Elizabeth (Lizzie) Francis (see above, and also the Francis family) they stayed on until the birth of their first child, Irene, in 1885., when they moved into their own home, built nearby. Often, members of Aunt Lizzie Upshaw's family visited her. One of her sisters, Celena (Lena) Francis, met Callie Upshaw on one of her visits. Inevitably they fell in love and were married 19 December 1888. Cousin Cora Lou, Callie's niece, remembered very pleasantly Elizabeth and Lena's mother Martha (MacAllen) Francis, who with other members of the family, were frequent visitors at the Harrison Upshaws. Cora Lou's parents, James Berrien and Nancy Emma (Arnold) Upshaw, who lived near the Upshaw home place all their married life, were at Uncle Harrison and Aunt Lizzie's wedding at Princeton, Rockdale County, Georgia, about ten miles away. After Cora Lou's parents died  she was closer than ever to her Uncle Callie. She mentioned in several letters how much she cared for him  and how he had taken her father's place in her life. 
   Callie and Lena  (Francis) Upshaw moved to Gwinnett County in 1890, about a year after their marriage; then lived for a while near Conyers. But by 1892 ir 1893 they were back in Gwinnett. Their property fanned out from the point where Walton, Rockdale and Gwinnett Counties merge. Papa (Callie Upshaw) continued to buy parcels of land until he owned about 1,200 acres. In 1894 he built his first store; he knew a store in the area would be a help to all the farmers round about. After three years or so the business had outgrown this first building, so he put up a larger one across the road. This, too, was soon too small making it necessary to construct a still larger stone (granite) store about 33 feet wide and 100 feet in depth, which was completed in 1902, with a later addition 20 feet by 100, making the store 53' x 100'.

   Page 2) More for Teachers. Newnan, Ga., March 29th, 1866.
   Mr. Editor: I have noticed in the Herald of the 17th inst., a communication from Jas. B. Hunnicutt, of Senoia, “suggesting to Teachers of Coweta and adjoining counties, the propriety of meeting in Newnan on the 2d Saturday in May next,” for the purpose of “advising upon subjects of vast importance to the Profession;” and as I have been identified for a considerable number of years with the teaching fraternity, and therefore naturally feel concerned in whatever is of general interest to them, I have concluded to ask a small space in your paper in which to say a few words in relation to the matter. I heartily approve the suggestion of Prof. Hunnicutt. I think [it] is a good move in the right direction, and hope it may meet with a favorable response from teachers and friends of education generally.
   A Teacher’s Convention, meeting semi-annually, or even annually, at which all the teachers of the county might assemble and freely and generously interchange views upon the best methods of governing and instructing the youths, would do much to advance the educational interests of the community. If generally attended, it would familiarize the teachers of the country with each other and would tend to harmonize their efforts as co-laborers in the great cause of education. It would also kindle a spirit of emulation, and tend to establish a higher grade of scholarship and more thoroughness of instruction among the teachers of our common schools -  things much desired by all  who properly appreciate the advantages of an early, correct and thorough mental discipline and proper moral culture - Deficiencies in the common school education of a community have a more extensive and permanent effect upon the general character of the scholarship of that community than is perhaps generally believed; for if one’s course of instruction through the primary branches of science be incorrect or superficial, though he may afterwards take a thorough collegiate course, and leave college with high honors, yet the deficiencies in the foundation of his education, are apt to be visible to the thorough and close-observing scholar. 
   The common schools of a county have been appropriately termed the “nurseries of the public mind.”They effect more extensively and permanently the prosperity and happiness of the people at large, and do more to shape the destiny of nations, especially of republics, than perhaps all other human influences combined.
   Let us, then, fellow-teachers, lay our heads together” as a band of brethren and co-workers in a noble cause, and labor earnestly and faithfully to effect that reformation in our profession which is so manifestly necessary, and to elevate it to that high position in the estimation of mankind which its importance demands. (Signed) I.D. Upshaw.

Page 3) Robber in Woman’s clothing.
   Policemen Young and Holly arrested, on Friday night, a man dressed in woman’s clothes, charged with stealing one horse and a mule from I.D. Upshaw, in Coweta county. He was arrested in the building adjoining the old Sun office, and was with several women. When the policemen arrived on the search for him, in attempting to play the part of a female, he was detected. He then offered the policemen a dollar in silver to let him off. He was carried to the guard house about 9 o’clock in his female toggery. On his person was found a small amount of specie, amongst which was some bogus money.
   Saturday morning the man, who gave his name as Archibald Benton, was examined before Justice Wm. H. Branon, and remanded to Coweta county for trial. (Columbus News, March 27).
   The said Benton was brought back to this county, and on Thursday last was committed to jail by Justices Lumpkin and Reese.
   On [the] same day Benj. F. Guined, who was charged with stealing a horse on the same night Mr. Upshaw’s was stolen, from Mr. John E. Conyers, of this county, was arraigned before the aforesaid Justices, and likewise committed. Those who are disposed to procure horses otherwise than legally would do well to avoid Coweta,
   The last General. Assembly of this State made horse stealing a capital offense - unless the jury recommends the defendant to mercy - in which event the criminal will be punished as the Code directs.

   Mrs. Upshaw was Miss Addie Stamps, of Coweta county, and was the widow of J.D. Upshaw, prominent as a farmer, teacher and in the early seventies, as a Broad St. merchant.

The building was erected at the time that William D.

He refused and suggested that his mother's name be remembered that way.

DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. Anna Upshaw is named in estate papers of Haston Upshaw in Coweta Co, GA, as an heir; she is not found in the 1850 census in Coweta, Meriwether, or Walton Cos., GA, or in Tallapoosa Co, AL; other 1850 Upshaw households need to be checked for her, as Haston's children were apparently "parceled" out to relatives until permanent guardianship arrangements could be made.

2. 1842, May: Birth date as given in 1900 census.

3. 1850 Census: Ann/Anna Upshaw, born 1842, not found in 1850 census indexes.

4. 1852, 15 Jan: Tinsley Upshaw was appointed guardian of Anny Upshaw, "orphan child of Haston Upshaw" on 15 Jan 1852.  (Walton Co, GA, Administrator's & Guardian Bonds book B (1830-1857), page 255).  Tinsley was dismissed from guardianship in 1860, indicating that Anna had reached the age of 18. Anna attended school in Coweta County so, although Tinsley in Walton County was her guardian, she must have lived with Upshaw relatives in Coweta Co.

RESEARCH NOTES:

1. We can only surmise the situation that caused Anna Upshaw,orphan of Haston & Rhoda Upshaw, to relocate from Walton Co., GA, in 1860 to Randolph Co, AL, later in 1860. She is living wuith John V. McKee and family who, as far as I know, is not related in any way to her. Also, her first husband, William V. Walls, is in the same household and he, as far as I know, is unrelated to John V. McKee.

2. 1999 researcher, Roseanne Kaylor", <PKaylor777@aol.com> states: Anna Upshaw was married to William Vandiver Walls and lived in Ashland, Clay County, Alabama. She had two sons, Willis J. (which was probably for "Jeremiah", his grandfather), and another son who I believe was named William and was called "Billy". After William Vandiver Walls was killed on 4 July 1864, Anna (Upshaw) Walls married a Mr. Greer in Clay County, AL. (Note: I find no printed marriage records of Clay Co., AL, at the Georgia Archives-TOB). On the 1900 census of White County, Arkansas, there is Willis J. Walls & wife Susie E. & family. Living in the prior adjacent swelling is the family of E.E. Shearin and his wife Rhoda, born. Sep 1878 in Arkansas, mother & father born in Alabama. A daughter, Zula, born Sep. 1898, is the only child they have listed. Living with them is "Anna Greer", mother-in-law, age 58, born in May 1842. She is shown as a widow and as having only one child living, although we know she had at least three. (Note: doesn't this census provide a question for total children? - TOB) It states that she was born in Alabama, her father and mother born in GA. I have not checked the 1910 census. Evidently Mr. Greer was much older than Anna, as he is referred to as "Old Man Greer" in a letter from Willis J. to a cousin in Clay Co., AL".
   
3. The following information from "Descendants of Jeremiah ("Jerry") Walls", 1999, by Mark McGee, 763 LaGrange Ave., Newbury Park, CA 91320 <mnkmckee@earthlink.net>:
   William Vandever Walls (son of Jeremiah ("Jerry"), grandson of Sampson), was born about 1830 in Franklin Co, Georgia and died 1863 in Port Royal, Virginia. He married Anna Upshaw in Randolph Co, Alabama. She was born about 1842 in Georgia. (Note: Randolph Co., AL, marriage & probate records prior to 1897 are not extant).
   Anna remarried and moved to Arkansas supposedly.
   I have several letters which William wrote to Anna during the war courtesy of another descendant, Roseanne Walls Kaylor, Chattanooga, Tennessee.
   His wife, Anna E. Walls, filed a claim of deceased officers and soldiers from Alabama for settlement in the office of the Confederate States Auditor for the War Department on February 8, 1865. (Confederate Archives, Chapter 10, file no. 30, page 247).
   Children of William Walls and Anna Upshaw are:
   1. Carter Walls.
   2. Unknown Walls.

4. What evidence is there that it was Anna "Upshaw" who married to William Walls? 
   Anna should be found in the 1870 census with her children by William Walls; has that been searched?
   I have not seen a middle initial "E." for her; is that shown in the Confederate claim she filed in 1865?

5. Have White Co, Arkansas, cemetery records been searched for her?

6. Frances T. Ingmire, "Arkansas Confederate Veterans and Widows Pension Applications" (St. Louis, MO: the author, date?): Eleven "Greer" listed, but no widow "Anna". There are nine "Walls" references, widow "Anna" is shown, on CSA veteran J.P. Walls, Co. B, 44th Tenn., Scott Co., veteran deceased 17 Feb 1928.

Anna Upshaw and William Vandiver Walls [CSA] were married circa 1860 in Randolph Co, Alabama?. William Vandiver Walls [CSA] was born circa 1830 in Franklin Co, Georgia. He appeared in the census in 1850 in Talledega Co, Alabama. He lived in Randolph Co, Alabama from 1860 to 1863. William appeared in the census in 1860 in Randolph Co, Alabama. He died in 1863 at the age of 33 in Port Royal, Virginia. He was buried at an unknown cemetery in Port Royal, Virginia.

   3. William Vandever Walls (son of Jeremiah ("Jerry"), grandson of Sampson) was born about 1830 in Franklin County, Georgia and died 1863 in Port Royal, Virginia. He married Anna Upshaw in Randolph County, Alabama. She was born about 1842 in Georgia.
   Notes for William Vandever Walls:
   1860 Randolph County, Alabama census lists William with John V. McKee's family. (Note: Randolph County marriage and probate records prior to 1897 are not extant).
   William Vandever/Vandiver was the youngest, or next to the youngest, son of Jeremiah Walls. He was married to Anna Upshaw and was the father of two sons, one Carter Walls, the other not known. William V. Walls was killed in the Civil War. He was wounded at the battle of Chickamauga and died at Port Royal, Virginia in 1863 during battle. Anna remarried and moved to Arkansas supposedly.
   I have several letters which William wrote to Anna during the war courtesy of another descendant, Roseanne Walls Kaylor, Chattanooga, Tenn.
   He was elected Lieutenant of Co. H, 8th Alabama Cavalry, C.S.A.

7. Information from Roseanne Kaylor, 2 Nov 1999, email <PKaylor777@aol.com>:
   Anna Upshaw was married to William Vandiver Walls and lived in Ashland, Clay County, Alabama. She had two sons: Willis J. (which was probably for "Jeremiah", his grandfather) and another son who I believe was named William and was called "Billy". After William Vandiver Walls was killed on 4 July 1864, she married again in Clay County, AL. I do not know his name, other than his surname was "Greer". On the 1900 census of White County, Arkansas, there is Willis J. Walls & wife Susie E. and family. Living in the adjacent prior dwelling is the family of E.E. Shearin and his wife Rhoda, born Sept. 1878 in Arkansas, mother & father born in AL. A daughter, Zula, born Sept. 1898, is the only child they have listed. Living with them is Anna Greer, mother-in-law, age 58, born in May 1842. She is listed as a widow and as having only 1 child living, although we know she had at least three (Question: doesn't this census provide a question for total children-TOB?). It states that she was born in Alabama, her father and mother born in Georgia. I have not checked the 1910 census. Evidently Mr. Greer was much older than Anna, as he is referred to as "Old Man Greer" in a letter from Willis J. to a cousin in Clay Co., AL".

NOTES:

1. Although James H. Upshaw is not found named as an heir among the estate papers of Haston Upshaw in Coweta Co., GA, he does state in his Confederate pension application that he was born on 11 March 1847 in Coweta County, Georgia, when the only two adult Upshaws there were Adkin & Haston. Adkin had no son James, so James H. is, by preponderance of evidence, the son of Haston Upshaw. 

2. A descendant reports that he believes that his middle name was actually "Haskins", not "Haston". (Source:Michael A. Brame, grandson of William & Beulah (Upshaw) Brame, 2011 <w8ry@yahoo.com>. (I know of no place where his middle name is spelled out although the middle initial "H" is given several times; I have assumed that it was for his father "Haston" although there is no documentation for this-tob)

COMMENTS:

1. No cemetery marker for her has been found Navarro Co, TX? Miss Weems comments that "the earliest deaths recorded in Navarro County are 1903. I looked through 1940, but found no certificate for C.A. Marshall or Mrs. Will Marshall. She must have died between 1900 and 1903; if she is buried next to her husband, her grave is not marked". Her husband, W.H. Marshall, is buried at Old Chatfield Cemetery, Navarro Co, Texas, and there is no marker for Curicy there. Is there an unmarked grave next to his there? Are there any newspaper abstracts of the county for 1900-1903?

   To the many friends of Mrs. E.B. Darden, may the richest blessings of earth and heaven ever be with you for the kindness shown her during sickness and death. (signed) Mrs. J. C.

11. 1915, 21 October: Newspaper item: In Memoriam.
   At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon of February 12, 1915, the angel of death again came into our midst and took from the home of Mrs. J. C. McGarity the aged mother, Mrs. Susan Frances Upshaw Darden.
   Mrs. Darden was 81 years and one month of age at the time of her death.
   Like the apple that hangs on the bough in autumn with its external roseate beauty evidencing an internal mellowness and silently awaiting the call of the gentle breeze to loose it's hold on the tree, and drop submissively to the lap of mother earth; she with face furrowed by the flight of years, with head blossoming for the grave and with affections increasing for the true homeland, was calmly awaiting the summons to lay aside the cares of this temporary life and enter the home of the soul - a city whose builder and maker is God.
   Sister Darden leaves two daughters and a host of relatives and friends, who are sad indeed at her departure. Her husband and son, and one daughter had gone on before.
   She had been married about 65 years and had been a consistent member of the church nearly so long.
   At the time of her death she was a treasured member with us at Tyus.
   She was laid to rest at Bethesda church where she was a member for some time. Rev. J. T. Layton, one of her former pastors, conducted the funeral services.
   Sister Darden will be greatly missed, in the community, the home and the church, but her work here is done, the God whom she trusted and who blessed her with a long life and through her Christian life blessed many others with whom she met, has been pleased to take her from us.
   Therefore be it resolved by Tyus Baptist Church -
   1. That we bow in submission to his will, feeling the blessed assurance that in the loss of this, our sister and mother in Israel, she has gained "An inheritance incorruptable and life and that fadeth not away", and 
   2. that these Resolutions be sent The Times with a request that they be published and that we spread the same upon the record of our church.
   Mrs. M. J. Brook, W. H. Brook, W. M. Chambers, Committee.

   On the evening of July 30th, inst., the death angel visited the home of sister Darden and took from her embrace her loving husband, Brother Elza (sic) Bland Darden.
   Brother Darden was nearing his eighty-fifth birthday, having been born Dec. 18, 1827 in Meriweather County, Georgia. He was married to Sue Upshaw. Coweta Co., Ga., Oct., 1851. 
   He was a member of the Missionary Baptist Church for about 35 years; being baptized into the fellowship of Eden church, Carroll County, Ga., by Rev. Nash Burson. At the time of his death he was a member of Tyus Baptist Church, where his membership had been about eight years.
   Brother Darden leaves a wife, two daughters and a host of relatives to mourn his death. Two children preceded him to the grave. 
  The funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. L. Layton at Bethesada church, where his remains were laid to rest to await the morning of the first resurrection when the Lord shall come again to gather his jewels.
   Brother Darden will be greatly missed at church where he was a constant attendant as long as he was able to go.
   Be it resolved, first, that in the death of Brother Darden, the church has lost a faithful member. The aged wife, a loving husband, and sympathetic comforter and the children an honored and doting father. 
   And that we bow in humble submission to Him who doeth all for the best; knowing that all things work for good to them that love the Lord. And that we invoke Heaven's blessings upon the bereaved family. 
   And second, that a copy of these resolutions be added to as a part of our church record and be sent to our county papers for publication.

   J.T. Upshaw, better known as "Uncle Tom", died at his home in this place on Tuesday night, Dec. 19, at 11 o'clock. He had been in declining health for several months, and his death was not unexpected by his relatives and friends. He moved to this place a few months ago from the Summer Hill community.
   Mr. Upshaw had been a citizen of this county for many years, and was well known and highly esteemed to many of our citizens.
   He was a Confederate soldier and a member of the Baptist Church. He was over 80 years old  at the time of his death.
   He is survived by his wife and several children. 
   Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Wm. Neil, and interment was made in the Summer Hill cemetery on Wednesday afternoon of last week.

NOTES:

1. Joseph Thomas Upshaw had no issue by his second marriage to Nancy Music.

2. Year of birth given as 1841 in Confederate pension application; as 1842 on grave marker.

3. I suspect that Joseph Thomas Upshaw is the father of Robert O. Upshaw, born 1871, but cannot find Joseph's household in the 1880 census. J.T. Upshaw obituary does not name his children; Any estate records in Shelby County for Joseph T. Upshaw, circa 1923 may likely show descendants. The Georgia death certificate of Robert O. Upshaw in 1935 should name his parents.

RESEARCH NOTES:

1. The Georgia Archives shows no Tax Lists for Carroll County from 1873 to 1899, although 1890 & 1891 (and perhaps others) are at the Carroll County Library (see note above); perhaps the Archives' inventory is incorrect? (Need to check).

COMMENTS: 

1. The birthplace of Robinson Upshaw was Coweta County, Georgia, as his father bought land there in 1838 (Deed Book G, page 189) and on January 13, 1845 (Deed Book G, page 437). 

2. Robinson V. Upshaw served in Co. "B", 1st Georgia Cavalry, with his brother John R. Upshaw.

3.  Family recollection told to Ted Brooke, by Haskell Upshaw, ca 1975:
   Robinson joined the Confederate cavalry on 10 May 1862 when he was only 16 years old.  His father was very distressed at this, as "his other sons had all gone to the Confederate army and he (R.V.) was the youngest and he didn't want him in danger".  His father was able to get him returned home, which is evidenced in his service record, in the muster roll dated 13 Feb 1864, which states "Last paid by Capt. May, aqm, to June 30, 1863.  Dropped from roll by order of Major J.H. Strickland, Com. Regt". He reenlisted on 20 Nov 1864, either in Newnan or Luthersville,  as evidenced on muster roll for Nov & Dec 1864. 
   At some point, either before his first enlistment in 1862 or the second in 1864, the Coweta County Sheriff got involved and is supposed to have confined him in the County jail to keep him at home, which was ultimately to no avail.
   According to family tradition, he was a large man, about 6'6" in height, and very strong.  It is told he could pull apart a piece of harness with his bare hands and would often do this in public as a feat of strength. My father, Theodore Routon Brooke, has told me that he recalls seeing another picture of him, with a long-stemmed pipe, which I have never been able to locate. Sadly, no picture of him in Confederate uniform is thought to exist.
   Also according to family tradition, he is supposed to have killed or injured a colored man in a fight in Carrollton. Ida, Robinson's wife was at a well in town and was insulted somehow by the colored man, who was severely injured or killed by Robinson, who then fled to Alabama, where he remarried to Ida Phillips after the death of his first wife, which had occurred on 25 Dec 1890, and thence moved to Shawnee, Oklahoma, where he died in 1901.  My grandmother, Martha C.P. (Upshaw) Brooke, daughter of Robinson, told my father that her father (Robinson) had written her from Alabama while he was "in exile" there, asking her to come and keep house for him, which she did not do; she was married to my grandfather, James Robert Brook(e) on 31 Dec 1891, shortly before her father's remarriage to Ida Phillips in Alabama. An account of this affray in Carrollton should be in the Carroll County newspapers, I think the affray probably happened about 1888-1891 and will make interesting reading, once located. (Note: No Superior Court case of this supposed incident is found in the Carroll County Superior Court Minute Books from 1879 to 1903, although several of the indexes appear to be faulty. Digitized copies of there Carroll Free Press for 1883-1922 have been searched for all possible combinations of his name: R. Upshaw, R. V. Upshaw, Rob Upshaw, Robinson Upshaw & Bob Upshaw - only the one reference found of 15 Oct 1885). Since no record has been found of this supposed incident, perhaps it did not actually happen - TOB.

Robinson Valentine "Bob" Upshaw [CSA] and Ida Pope Routon were married on 24 Dec 1871 in Carrollton, Carroll Co, Georgia. Ida Pope Routon, daughter of William Jefferson Routon and Mary Catherine Hay, was born on 29 Sep 1856 in Greenville, Meriwether Co, Georgia. She lived in Carrollton, Carroll Co, Georgia from 1863 to 1890. She appeared in the census in 1870 in Carroll Co, Georgia. Ida appeared in the census in 1880 in Montgomery Co, Alabama. She died on 25 Dec 1890 at the age of 34 in Carroll Co, Georgia. She was buried at West-Routon-Upshaw family cemetery in Carroll Co, Georgia.

The Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, Divorce Index, 1892-1931. shows no "McGehee" case. This marriage date is appropriate, as R.V.

   The State vs. Nathan H. Upshaw; Indictment for murder in the Supr. Court of Meriwether County and verdict of guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the commission of an unlawful act.
   The State, through the Solicitor General William A. Adams, is required & ordered to show cause why said verdict should not be set aside and a new trial granted to the defendant on the following grounds:
   1st. Because the defendant has never been arraigned in said case, the bill of indictment has been read to the defendant and the defendant has never been called on nor had an opportunity to plead to said indictment whether he was guilty or not guilty.
   2nd. Because defendant proposed to prove by T.P. Gibbs, a witness introduced by the State, that Turner L. Upshaw, the deceased, on the morning of the 28th day of December 1869, said to witness that he would stomp defendants guts out  the first time he saw him, which evidence the court rejected and refused to let go before the jury.
   3rd. Because one ground of defendants defense was and it was fully set up in the arguement that the shooting of Turner L. Upshaw was an accident unintentional on the pert of the defendant  and the evidence made it a case of accident misfortune or misadventure in law and that the court wholly and entirely failed to charge the jury on this branch of defendants defense and never in his said charge mentioned either of the words accident, misfortune or misadventure.
   4th. Because the Court in his charge to the jury did not charge them what it took to constitute involuntary manslaughter and never in his said charge [page 406] informed the jury wherein involuntary manslaughter in commission of an unlawful act differed and was distinguished from involuntary manslaughter in the commission of an unlawful act without due caution and circumspection, all the Court did in his charge on this grade of homicide was to read the section of the Code pertaining thereto without any comment or explanation thereon.
   5th. Because the jury, after they had returned to make a verdict, came into court and, after their names were called and the foreman said they had agreed  on a verdict, the defendants counsel asked  that they be polled, each jury [member] answered that the verdict written on the bill of indictment was his verdict when the same was received and read, was in the words following "we the jury find the defendant guilty of involuntary manslaughter". The Court at this instance of counsel for the State directed  the jury to return and to the words in their verdict and the words in the commission of an unlawful act or the words in the commission of an unlawful act and omitted the words without due caution and circumspection.
   6th. Because the verdict is contrary to law.
   7th. Because the verdict is without evidence.
   8th. Because the verdict is contrary to the evidence.
   9th. Because the verdict is strongly and decidedly against the weight [of] evidence.

19. 1890, 21 Jan: Scare About Smallpox. 
   Lutherville (sic) has what is pronounced a genuine case.
   The people terribly excited  and business demoralized - Afraid of an epidemic. Another case is reported at Hogansville.
   Newnan, Ga., Jan. 20 - [Special] - The town of Lutherville, near the line of Coweta and Meriwether counties, six miles from Grantville, was thrown into a high state of excitement yesterday by the report that Nath Upshaw, formerly a revenue officer of this district, was down sick at that place with smallpox. He came home last Thursday complaining, but not until yesterday afternoon did the people learn that Upshaw had the smallpox. The Mayor and council were hurriedly convened  about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, when they sent a messenger to Dr. R.L. Long, of this place, to go at their expense and make an investigation of the matter. The doctor returned late this evening and pronounced it a genuine case of confluent smallpox. He says that the people are fleeing from Lutherville (sic), and the greatest excitement prevails in that section. It is highly probable that there has been a large number of exposures, the people being ignorant until Sunday of the nature of the disease. Upshaw's children did not leave his bedside until yesterday, and they were being taken care of by their neighbors. All business had stopped and the men were congregated on the street corners  discussing the seriousness of their situation. Dr. Taylor told Dr. Long he understood that a case of smallpox had broken out in Hogansville yesterday.    
The same report is discussed here in the streets of Newman, but I know nothing of its truth. Upshaw says he has no idea where he caught the disease, but he has been traveling of late on the railroads of the State, and was in Atlanta the early part of last week. The doctors and druggists are telegraphing tonight to Atlanta for virus for the purpose of anticipating the ravages of the disease. 
   There seems to be a latent impression in the minds of the people that some great calamity overhangs them, and this case of smallpox out in the country intensities their grave apprehensions. Of course, the adjoining towns will at once quarantine, and the business of this section will be greatly retarded. Dr. Long will return Wednesday to see how his patient is doing, and may remain there until the malady abates. He left them in charge of a man who had already had smallpox and understands nursing patients thus afflicted.

20. 1890, 25 Jan: Upshaw May Die. Newnan, Ga. Jan. 24 - [Special] -

No new cases have been reported, although several persons have been exposed. All of Upshaw's family have left him but his oldest daughter. All excitement has subsided.

(1992): David Henry Herring was a Confederate veteran of Co. A (2nd), 12 Battalion, Light Artillery, (later infantry), Georgia Volunteers. Captured at Fisher's Hill, VA. (Source: National Archives military service record)
  David was first married to Millie Jones in 1860, Coweta Co, GA, and it is not known what happened to her, although she must have died prior to about 1875 when he remarried to Elizabeth Ann Pearson. He had four children by Millie.  According to family tradition "she took the four children and went out west". However, according to the 1880 census of Cherokee Co, AL, David & Elizabeth (Pearson) Herring were living in Cherokee Co. with the four children of David & Millie.  It is also a family tradition that David knew Elizabeth when she was a small child and rode her on his knee. This would indicate the Herrings and Pearsons were very close in GA and may have come to AL together since a William Pearson was in Cherokee Co, AL, in the 1880 census.

David Henry Herring and Millie Jones were married on 27 Dec 1860 in Coweta Co, Georgia. Millie Jones was born (date unknown).

COMMENTS: 

1. James Henry Upshaw was apparently born in 1849, not 1847;  if he had been 3 years old in 1850, it is unlikely his parents would have made such a mistake as reporting his age as only 1 when he was actually 3.

James Henry "Jim" Upshaw and Arissie B. "Maggie" Breedlove were married on 23 Dec 1878 in Red River Parish, Louisiana. Arissie B. "Maggie" Breedlove, daughter of William O. Breedlove and Syntha Ann E. Dupree, was born on 15 Apr 1855 in Georgia. She appeared in the census in 1860 in Appling Co, Georgia. She appeared in the census in 1870 in Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana. Maggie appeared in the census in 1880 in Red River Parish, Louisiana. She appeared in the census in 1900 in Bienville Parish, Louisiana. She appeared in the census in 1910 in Red River Parish, Louisiana. Maggie appeared in the census in 1920 in Red River Parish, Louisiana. She died on 8 Feb 1930 at the age of 74 in Coushatta, Red River Parish, Louisiana. She was buried at Liberty Hill cemetery in Red River Parish, Louisiana. 1. 1855, 15 April: Birth date from grave marker, Liberty cemetery records, Coushatta, Red River Parish, LA: (double marker with J.H.

She was the mother of one son, that died in its infancy and two daughters, who with her husband still live  to mourn her death, but they mourn not as for those that have no hope. I have been intimately acquainted with her for a number of years, visited her in her last illness, and can truly say that I don't remember having ever seen anyone bear afflictions with more seeming Christian resignation than she did. For nearly a week before she died she seemed to be perfectly happy, often shouting and praising the Lord. She called her friends each one by name and told them hoe good they had been to her in her afflictions and how the Lord had blessed her. She called her daughters by name and told them that she loved them but she was going to leave them in the hands of the Lord. That this earth was not her home, that she would soon be removed. She said grieve no more than you can help for me, for I fell like the exchange will be a happy one. She said I cannot raise up my head but I can praise the Lord with my tongue, then just before the end came she asked her husband who was standing by her if he heard the angel, he told her he didn't, she said it is here, it has come after me and I must go with it. Then turning her eyes upward  she was heard to say, "Glory to God on high." Then she passed away with a smile that remained after death.
   She was a woman as much devoted to her family as any one I ever knew. Her great delight was to render her family and friends comfortable and happy, her earthly deportments was such that all have consolation that their loss is her eternal gain. Then let me say to her husband, that the time draweth nigh when she and you will again be united not in the marital ties of the flesh, but in Christ Jesus the Lord, to enjoy his presence forever.
   Dear children I pray the Lord to prepare you for a happy union with your mother in Christ, for she is now at rest.
How blest the righteous when she dies,
   Her soul from earthly troubles flies,        
And lands in heaven, her blest abode,
   Forever there to rest with God.
      M. R. Aderhold.

COMMENTS: 

1. Milligan W. Upshaw is believed to have drowned in the Gulf of Mexico; is there any substantiation of this? The double cemetery marker with Martha M. Upshaw in Carroll Co. has no inscribed death date for him. (Note: no reference to him is found in the Georgia death certificate index, the Alabama Deaths & Burials Index, 1881-1974, the Alabama Death Index, 1908-1959, or the Florida Death Index, 1897-1998. www.findagrave shows reference to him: Milligan W. Upshaw, born 1847, died "unknown", buried at Concord Baptist Church cemetery, Carrollton, Carroll Co, Georgia (no documentation).

2. (1998 contact, Mrs. Corbett (702)736-1792), 95 yrs. old, granddaughter of Milligan Upshaw, says Milligan & Martha had two sons & two daughters & her mother (name not given) was one of the daughters, who md a ______ Turner and she (Mrs. Corbett) was born in Carroll Co. (note: I find no Upshaw-Turner marriage in Carroll Co. through 1920); contact is through Stan Carroll, Huntsville, AL (205)881-2111; this information seems questionable, in view of the census records, which only show one child.

Milligan W. Upshaw and Martha M. McAllister were married on 6 Sep 1866 in Carroll Co, Georgia. Martha M. McAllister, daughter of James Blanton McAllister and Margaret Mcrae, was born on 20 Jan 1847 in Carroll Co, Georgia. She appeared in the census in 1870 in Carroll Co, Georgia.

3. 1877, 28 Sep: Obituary, Carroll County Times, issue of 28 September
1877:
   We get the following particulars of a terrible accident which happened at Dickson's old mill, now owned by Wesley Smith, on the 20th and which resulted in the sudden death of a little son of Mr. Thomas Upshur (sic) of this County. The little boy had been staying with his grandfather, Mr. James Upshur, but on the 20th he started to return home, going as far as the mill with his uncle, Mr. Aderhold. His father, Mr. Thomas Upshur, it was understood, was to overtake them at the mill. When the little boy and his uncle got to the mill, his uncle went off to a syrup mill which he had in operation nearby. In the meantime, the little boy took a notion he would go home with Mr. Clark Hindon but only got as far as Mr. Eady's some two or three hundred yards where he stopped, afterwards returning to the mill. It was but a short time after his return when he wandered off upstairs where in some way or other he was caught in the machinery and crushed to death .......  At the time he was in the mill, the miller was present and a Mr. Harris but, they being busy, failed to see him when he went upstairs. The stoppage
of the mill caused an investigation to see what was the matter and it was then discovered that the mutilated body of the little boy was the cause of the stoppage. The little fellow, we learn, was about six years old and was quite a sprightly child, being a great favorite of all who knew him. We tender the stricken parents our sympathy in their great and sudden bereavement.

11. 1903, 19 Feb: Obituary of John A. Upshaw
   John A. Upshaw Dead.
   It is with sadness of heart that we make mention of the death of our beloved grandfather, Jno. A. Upshaw, of Jackson's Gap, Tallapoosa county, Ala., which news reached us through a telegram from Columbus, Ga.,  at which place he died very suddenly last Saturday while on a visit to his daughter, Mrs. Serenia Parkman of that city. His death came very unexpectedly, he being sick only a few hours; having died with breast trouble. He was over to see us a few weeks ago enjoying perfect health.
   He was born in Maryweather (sic) county, Ga.,  67 years ago and was reared to the age of manhood in that State. When quite a young man he was married to Miss Mary Giles of that State and county, from which marriage there were three children born of whom survive him; Mrs. H.M. Norris, Columbiana, Ala.; L.L. Upshaw, Sherman, Tex., and Jno. F. Upshaw of Dallas, Tex. 
   In 1868 he moved from the State of Georgia to Jackson's Gap, Alabama, where a short while after, he lost his wife. He afterwards became married to Mrs. Sallie Tolbert of that place, and from this union two daughters were born, both of whom still survive him.
   They are Mrs. A.D. Turner, Goodwater, Ala., and Mrs. Serenia Parkman, Columbus, Ga. At the beginning of the civil war he volunteered his service,  though quite young,  and shouldered his musket in the defense of his country under the leadership of the gallant Joe Wheeler,  and he made a good soldier. Very early in life he joined the Missionary Baptist church,  and lived a consistant christian life up till the time of his death. He was a kind husband and loving father, and his character as a man  to say nothing of a father, commanded reverence for its nobleness.
   Besides the immediate sons and daughters, he had a number of brothers, sisters and relatives, among whom is Rev. W.J.D. Upshaw, of Goodwater, Ala.
   His remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at Jackson's Gap Sunday afternoon at two o'clock.
   The writer feels the great loss of this goodly earthly parent, and while he has gone from our midst his noble life and character shines as a bright star before us,  and we cherish the good name of our beloved grandfather.

   (photograph); Minister Passes. Rev. W.J.D. Upshaw, prominent Baptist minister and former pastor of the East Point and Buckhead Baptist churches,  who died at his home, 972 Gordon street, early Saturday morning after a protracted illness.
   Host of Friends in Georgia and Southeast Mourn Baptist Minister.
   Funeral services for Rev. W.J.D. Upshaw, 76, prominent Baptist minister and beloved Atlantian, who died at his residence, 972 Gordon street, S.W., early Saturday morning, after a n illness of several months, will be held from the West End Baptist church Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock, with Rev. M.A. Cooper, pastor of the church, officiating. Burial will be in Greenwood cemetery. 
   Mr. Upshaw's death, although not unexpected, occasioned great sorrow among a host of friends throughout Georgia and the southeast,  many of whom will come to Atlanta to attend the funeral services. A native of Meriwether county, Georgia, Mr. Upshaw entered the ministry at the age of 25 years, and had a wide circle of friends among Baptists in a number of southeaster states.
   He came to Atlanta more than 20 years ago, having held pastorates in several Georgia and Alabama cities prior to that time. His first charge in this city was at the East Point Baptist church, where he served for a number of years before accepting a call to the Buckhead Baptist church. In 1924 he resigned as pastor of the Buckhead church to become the supply and evangelical pastor of a number of churches in the outlying communities of the city.
   His ministry in Atlanta won him a wide circle of friends and admirers, who recognized him as a man of exceptional talents and uncompromising faith. He continued as an active preacher despite his advanced age , until nine weeks ago, when he was confined to his home with a serious illness.
    He is survived by his widow, four daughters, Mrs. A.E. Weatherby, of Toronto, Canada; Mrs. C.S. Whipple, of Lakeland, Fla.; Mrs. L.R.

SECONDARY SOURCE:

1. Their eldest child was Narcissa Ann [Upshaw], born May 5, 1826. [She] Married May 4, 1843 William L. Loomis, Ohio, born May 13, 1821. I find them living in Peoria, Ill. (where they no doubt were married) in the Federal Census of 1850, also I find her father and his family. The book "Loomis Family in America" 1908, gives the following list of William Loomis and Narcissa Upshaw's 9 children:
a) Edgar F., born June 11, 1844, died Feb. 5, 1848, Peoria.
b) Luella N. (Narcissa) born Dec. 10, 1846; m. June 8, 1865, Elizah Lewis.
c) Frank P., born Feb. 10, 1849.
d) Edward L., born Feb. 1, 1851.
e) Ida E., born Feb. 1, 1853; m. March 2, 1871, Henry Swinhart.
f) William L. (Loomis), born Feb. 3, 1855.
g) Lyman U. (Upshaw), born Aug. 2, 1857.
h)Jesse, born Narch 4, 1860, d. June 1860.
i) Blanche, born Feb. 26, 1861.
   Some time after 1850, this Loomis family moved to Abilene, Kansas, then to New York some say, but I have not verified the latter location. I have given much research to this family, but while I found Loomis relatives who helped me find their record in "The Loomis Family in America" 1903, I have never been able to contact any of their descendents, who of course are all descendents of Dr. George W. Upshaw.

2. Their eldest child was Narcissa Ann [Upshaw], born May 5, 1826. [She] Married May 4, 1843 William L. Loomis, Ohio, born May 13, 1821. I find them living in Peoria, Ill. (wjere they no doubt were married) in the Federal Census of 1850, also I find her father and his family.  The book :"Loomis Family in America" 1908, gives the following list of William Loomis and Narcissa Upshaw's 9 children:
a) Edgar F., born June 11, 1844, died Feb. 5, 1848, Peoria.
b) Luella N. (Narcissa) born Dec. 10, 1846; m. June 8, 1865, Elizah Lewis.
c) Frank P., born Feb. 10, 1849.
d) Edward L., born Feb. 1, 1851.
e) Ida E., born Feb. 1, 1853; m. March 2, 1871, Henry Swinhart.
f) William L. (Loomis), born Feb. 3, 1855.
g) Lyman U. (Upshaw), born Aug. 2, 1857.
h)Jesse, born Narch 4, 1860, d. June 1860.
i) Blanche, born Feb. 26, 1861.
   Some time after 1850, this Loomis family moved to Abilene, Kansas, then to New York some say, but I have not verified the latter location. I have given much research to this family, but while I found Loomis relatives who helped me find their record in "The Loomis Family in America" 1903, I have never been able to contact any of their descendents, who of course are all descendents of Dr. George W. Upshaw.

SECONDARY SOURCES: 

1. Francis Marion (Frank) Upshaw, the first son (of George W. & Mary Malinda (Greenwood) Upshaw) was born September 20, 1830. he was named Francis Marion after the Huguenot "Swamp Fox" who learned of war first in 1759 fighting the Cherokee Indians.
   Frank inherited all the fiery adventuresome temperment of the Roans. He ran away from home (according to his daughter Linda Stambaugh, before his mother Malinda died, when he was 13 years old) sailed the Mississippi on a boat with Mark Twain as pilot. He adored his mother, and probably came home before her death in 1846-47. After grandfather married the second time in 1848, Peoria Census Records 1859 show him home again.
   Heredity took over when he selected his wife, for in 1852 he married Juliet Buchanan Reed of Ohio, niece of President James Buchanan.
   It seemed from old family records they lived first in Illinois, near Jerseyville.
   I have many very old letters from his daughter, Cousin Malinda (Linda) Upshaw who married Winfield Stambaugh, a lawyer. She was still living at 87, and was a cultured woman with a clear alert mind, that gave life to the past.
   Linda wrote of her father, Frank, and remembered his brothers, George and Thomas, who lived many years with her father when she was a little girl.
   Federal census records of 1860 show Francis M. Upshaw and family living in the shadow of the Ozark's near Marshfield, Missouri. Here in a land where all were proclaiming their allegiance to the Confederacy, Uncle Frank was an ardent Union man.
   Dr. John Upshaw, also of Marshfield, whom he called uncle, but who it seems, was only a cousin (probably son of Dr. James Upshaw, Virginia, Jeremiah line) begged him to be more diplomatic in voicing his political views. But as Dr. John Upshaw was himself a rebel and had many slaves, it is probable that to a dedicated fearless man like Uncle Frank this advise (sic) backfired.
   When his country declared war, and he was unable to join the Union army on account of a physical disability, his loyalty to his country led him to proclaim his sympathy for the Union at every opportunity. Twice he was threatened with lynching and finally left his home and all his possessions were burned by the Confederates and he and his family were left destitute.
   History here was repeating itself, for the home of his 3rd great-grandfather Charles Roane, Loyalist, also was burned by a party of rebels after Bacon's death.
   For a more complete story see the manuscript of the Upshaw family, D.A.R. Library, Washington, D.C., File #12947, written by his daughter, Linda Upshaw Stambaugh.
   My cousin Linda wrote me in 1945, of how Seigle's Union Army, composed of Germans took them in, and fed and cared for the destitute family. The baby, Ida, was but six months old, and Linda whose negro spirituals delighted the Union soldiers, was two and a half years.
   Being forced to leave Missouri, the family took refuge in Kansas in 1867. Here Francis Marion had a cattle and wheat ranch until the range was settled, then they moved to Abilene, Kansas where he opened a furniture store. Here his wife, Juliet died and was buried. Uncle Frank, oldest son of George, was an energetic and successful business man. He was a part of the settling of the west. He lived in Abilene during its outlaw period and played his part in solving its problems.
   It seems a pity that no more can be told of this colorful figure.
   Frank was closer to his father than most of the others, yet politically they never agreed, but he loved his parents and his family and it showed up strongly when he named his children.
   The children of Francis Marion Upshaw and Juliet Buchanan Reed were:
A-Virginia, born 1853, Jerseyville, Ill. Died young.
B-George Leelye, named for Frank's father, Dr. George.
C-William Loomis (named for husband of his sister Narcissa) born 1857, died July 23, 1928; married Ora Estelle Bishop, b. Aug. 18, 1859; d. Jan. 21, 1925, Portland, Oregon.
D-Malinda (Linda) b. 1859, Jerseyville, Ill., d. after 87th year, Kansas. Linda was named after her grandmother Mary Malinda Greenwood Upshaw; and was a fine musician.
E-Ida, b. abt. 1862-1863. Died young.
   I have been unable to obtain any data on George Leelye Upshaw above.

SECONDARY SOURCE:

1. George Washington Upshaw Jr., second son (of George W. & Mary Melinda (Greenwood) Upshaw), was born Aug. 14, 1840 in Peoria, Illinois. George, too, was for the Union, and he enlisted and went through the entire war. He was a prisoner at Andersonville  Prison, as was his brother Thomas. Here men were herded like cattle with no shelter over their heads day or night, rain or shine. He saw the majority of his comrades die, before he was exchanged, and marched with Sherman to the Sea.
   George, the gentle, said, "I don't know whether I killed anyone or not. I couldn't shoot at another human being, I just closed my eyes and fired."
   George was more his father's son than the others.He was less influenced by environment. He was an artist, whose life was spent painting beautiful canvases, which sold for very little. One of his oil paintings, a landscape, hung on our living room wall, when I was a child. If my girlhood conclusions were correct, he was a good artist. I think he was the only son of this first marriage who attended his father's funeral.
   I never saw Uncle George, but I knew him so well. After mother's death, I found his address among her papers, The Soldier's Home, Burkett, Nebraska, and wrote him.
   He was the loneliest person I have ever known. He married young, and his wife died, and his baby daughter, Rita (Retta) was taken by relatives to the west. He never found her until she was grown, but she wanted no part of his life. She never went to see him but once,  and she never answered his letters. Rita married twice, but had no issue.
   Uncle George wrote me beautiful letters in a lovely script. He seemed to live for my answers. I was 22 years old, he was 70, but we enjoyed each other and I wrote him often, sharing my life with him. I sent him boxes of homemade candy and cookies. How he loved it! I became the daughter he never had, and he called my babies, "his grandchildren." I was his "only relative" he wrote, and when he was 75, he planned to visit us. A stroke stopped his visit in 1915, but in 1916 he was better and hired a companion to accompany him on his long trip from Nebraska to Illinois.
   I wrote a joyful welcoming letter. But it came back marked "Deceased April 8, 1916." So I never was to see my beloved Uncle, and not a single relative was present at his funeral!
   I shall always be grateful I was allowed to walk a little of that last mile with him. (Source: Grace Jared, "They Met Challenges with Memoirs" (Ann Arbor, MI, 1968), page 72, 73)

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. (Third child of George W. Upshaw & Mary Malinda Greenwood): Thomas Jefferson Upshaw, third son and youngest child of George and Malinda, was born at Peoria, Illinois.
   His father wrote in the family Bible, that his birth date was April 6, 1845. He himself used April 6, 1844.
   Thomas never remembered his mother, who died in 1846 or 1847, and his relationship with his father was limited to a few short years, as he left home at about 13 years of age. Nevertheless, at his mother's death, as the baby, he was the center of a loving family's adoration. His sisters, Narcissa Ann and Melissa Jane, were 20 and 18 years old. His oldest brother, Frank, was 17 years old; George was seven years old, and I fear they all spoilt Thomas badly. I can't imagine his new stepmother, my grandmother Elizabeth, did anything but follow suit. She was a gentle person, she raised him, and she loved him.
   Young Thomas took after the Upshaws and Roanes, but he lacked the culture of their background. He grew up in the lawlessness of the frontiers of both Illinois and Missouri.
   A relative who knew him when he was a boy wrote me, :"He was a plucky little devil."
   I'm not sure that his indulgent, gentleman father,  Dr. George, or his stepmother, with her cultured background, could have understood in the least how ro raise this sturdy product of a new frontier.
   Certainly he must have worried them a great deal, and they had many other problems. Their first son, James, was born in 1850 and died in 1851. Then came the birth of  three little daughters, Emma in 1851, Katie in 1854 and my mother, Josephine, in 1857. It was after Josephine was born that Thomas left home. He went to live with his oldest brother, Frank, near Marshfield, Webster Co., Missouri.
   Frank was about 30 then; maybe he understood Thomas better than his parents. At least he had been raised in  the same environment. But he wasn't with Frank long,  for the Civil War came.
   I have been told by various members of his family, that Thomas was a drummer boy in the Union Army at 14 years. I find no verification of this in his army record, although it may be true. But I do find that on August 22, 1862 he enlisted in the Union Army. [Editor's note: Thomas was born 6 April 1844, enlisted 22 August 1862, and was over 18 years old at time of enlistment].
   He served in the Army of the Cumberland, member of Company G 86th Regiment, Illinois Infantry 14th Army Corps through the entire Civil War.
   He had no military training, but was ordered to Bull Run immediately, and had an active part in at least seven battles. [Editor's note: the 1st battle of Bull Run was on 21 July 1861 and the 2nd Battle of Bull Run was on 9 August 1862 and Thomas enlisted after this, on 22 August 1862, so he was in neither battle]. After the last battle at Jonesboro [Georgia], his regiment was detailed to escort 1,600 prisoners back to Atlanta, Georgia. They marched hundreds of miles, waded icy cold rivers, tore up railroads to Atlanta and started the left wing of Sherman's March to the Sea. They made a march of something like 35 miles for 7 successive days. Thomas did picket duty when Sherman met the Confederate delegates to arrange the surrender of Johnston's Army.  When Thomas was mustered out June 6, 1865 he  had seen more horror than falls to the lot of but few men..
   The boy was now a man, a man who knew life and how to face it. Environmental influence faded, and the proud inheritance  that was his took over.  As near as I can find out,  he never returned to his father's home but lived with his brother Frank. But he did follow in his father's footsteps and became a medical doctor. He must have served as apprentice for some physician.
   He told ne that, when Missouri passed a law that all physicians had to have a college medical degree, unless they had practiced a given number of years, he lacked just one year of qualifying. So he had to enter a medical school. He graduated in the same class as did his oldest son Ira, in the Old American Medical College in St. Louis in 1894.
   My mother, his sister Josephine, did not know him until she was after 40 years old. She learned of his address and wrote him at St. Louis.
   They did very well in bridging the years.  My mother visited him first, and recognized him immediately because as she said, "he looked just like my father," He had curly hair, and his father Dr. George had curly hair also.
   I learned to know Uncle Tommie and his wife, Aunt Maggie, and they visited often at our home. I was very fond of my uncle and he seemed to love my mother dearly.
   He was an exceptionally well disciiplined and patient man, but any mention of the war upset him greatly. He had seen too much.
   Thomas Jefferson Upshaw married Margaret Pricilla Bowles in 1866 at Clinton, Iowa. [Editor's note: this marriage os of record in McLean Co, Illinois, 27 Jan 1866]. They were the parents of four sons, all medical doctors.

   B) Dr. Platt Warren Upshaw, second son, 1871-1938; (more - see Platt Warren Upshaw notes) .  C) Dr. Orin Thomas Upshaw born at Waukeenee, Kansas, July 23, 1874 and died August 16, 1937 at St. Louis, Missouri; (more - see Orin Thomas Upshaw notes)..

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. 5) John Wesley Upshaw was the fifth son of Dr. George, born of his second marriage on October 7, 1859 at Jerseyville, Illinois. He died March 31, 1942 at McPherson, Kans. 
   His father, Dr. George Upshaw died when he was but 16 years of age.
   John was raised in a different world from his half brothers. Civilization had come to Illinois, bringing schools, churches, and freedom from Indian dangers. The political travail of the Civil War was over and no discord marred  the relationship of John  and his father. Poor they were, but there was no lack of culture and refinement in their home.
   John was different,. I never met him but once, but I knew of him from others, and I would say he was more a Denby than an Upshaw. He was "a good man and just, a religeous man, a devoted son and after my mother's marriage,  he cared for their mother until her death. in 1882. My mother deeded to him  her share of the modest Upshaw estate. 
   He married Ella V. Ogle (1863-1945), daughter of Alexander Ogle (1836-1862) and Mary Jane Drum, on August 9, 1883 at Cerro Gordo, Illinois.
   They lived at Cerro Gordo for five years after their marriage and here two daughters, Florence Ethel and  Mary Estelle, were born to them.
    In 1888 they moved to Hutchinson, Kansas, where Uncle John went into the furniture business with his nephew,  William Loomis Upshaw. After the birth of their son, Earl, in 1889, they moved to McPherson, Kansas, where John became an undertaker and had a large furniture store, which he operated until his death March 31, 1942.
   The children of John Upshaw and Ella V. Ogle were: (1) Florence Ethel [Upshaw]; (2) Mary Estelle Upshaw; (3) Earl Ogle Upshaw. (see their additional notes).

COMMENTS:

1. Harvey Singleton Upshaw is a child of James Upshaw by circumstantial evidence, as James was the only Upshaw of a proper age to have been his father who was in Jackson County, Illinois, where Harvey is found. George W. Upshaw is there in 1830, but has no male child under 5 and his family is well documented, so he is not the father of Harvey. No estate record is known for James and Harvey is not found in the 1850 or 1860 census indexes.

Harvey Singleton Upshaw [USA] and Amelia Jane Barnett were married on 4 Apr 1856 in Jackson Co, Illinois. Amelia Jane Barnett was born circa 1835. She died in 1865–1870 at the age of 30 in Jackson Co, Illinois. She was buried at an unknown cemetery in Jackson Co, Illinois.

   Dear Sir; In regard to the card rec'd. today in regard to the claim of the pension. Yes, Mrs. Mellie Williams is dead; she died 31 July & we wondered if you could send us one more check to help cover the expense during sickness 7 burial as there was so much expense, Dr. bills, nursing, funeral, etc. We's certainly appreciate if it was possible for you to, as we are very much in need of it. Respectfully Yours, Levi Williams, Perkins, Okla., Route 3 Box 55.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. Alexander Wilson Upshaw is the earliest recorded member of New Hope Primitive Baptist Church near Spearsville, joining on 24 August 1856. By 1871 Wilson served as a deacon at New Hope, and he performed numerous functions for the church between 1871 and his death in 1883. He served as a delegate to various district and associational church meetings, moderated church conferences when no minister was present, and served on various church committees. In fact, Wilson represented New Hope church at virtually every district and associational meeting between 1873 and 1882.
   Wilson apparently remained in good physical health at least until the fall of 1882. On September 9th, the pastor of New Hope could not attend services, and the church called Wilson Upshaw as the temporary moderator of the conference. However, he died on February 11th of unknown causes.

3. 1850 census, Butler Co, AL, page 39 (Rebecca Upshaw household): Elisha Upshaw, born 1830, GA.

4. 1859 August: It appears that he joined the Spearsville Baptist Church by letter on the Saturday (August 6) before the first Sunday in August 1859. On that day, the church received "Bro. E Upshaw", who is undoubtedly William Elisha Upshaw since he belonged to the Church in 1864. In April 1864,  Elisha Upshaw was charged for  non-attendance by the church. on 7 May 1864, the church forgave "Bro. E. Upshaw". In December 1867, the church excluded " ... Brother E. Upshaw for declaring a non fellowship of the church."
   Elisha Upshaw joined the New Hope Primitive Baptist Church  in October 1867 by experience. He remained a member until his death in January 1882. On 13 April 1872, "W.E. Upshaw asked the Church to forgive him for drinking to access [sic], which request was granted."

5A. 1860 census, Union Parish, LA, page 612, 21 July 1860, Spearsville Post Office, dwelling #685, family #685: Rebecca Upshaw, 60 years old, no real estate value, born in GA; Mary Upshaw, age 56, born in GA; Elisha Upshaw, age 28, farmer, born in GA, no real estate value, $150 personal estate value; Jonathan Upshaw, are 20, farmer, born in GA.

 (Note by descendant & Upshaw researcher Mr. Tim Hudson in 2011): "I'm convinced that Rebecca Elder Upshaw was listed twice on the 1860 Union Parish census. There are several situations like this in 1860 Union Parish. On the first, (dwelling #685) notice that Rebecca is listed with William Elisha and Jonathan Upshaw as well as Mary Upshaw, a woman I cannot identify (perhaps an unmarried daughter of Richard Upshaw and his first wife, or a widow of a male Upshaw relative?). Next door is Ed Upshaw (age 19) and wife; I assume this is her son, Edmund Upshaw.
   In the second listing (dwelling #703) M.E. Upshaw is age 26, listed with "R. Upshaw" (female) who I think is Rebecca, as well as "J. Upshaw". who I think is Jonathan. I do find it odd that the initials are "M.E." and not correctly "W.E.". THis is undoubtedly William Elisha Upshaw first (recorded as "M.E."), Rebecca and Jonathan. I say this because William Elisha Upshaw is the only makle Upshaw living in Union Parish who owned real estate, other than Alexander Wilson Upshaw (whose family was missed by the 1860 census enumerator). William E. and Jonathan jointly purchased land from their brother in the year 1860.

7. 1893, 23 May: (newspaper article): A Tragedy.
   Daniel Gooden Killed by David Upshaw at Stevens Pottery. Voluntary Manslaughter was the verdict of the Coroner's Jury. Upshaw gives himself up. Waves Commitment trial and gives bond.
   The quiet little village of Stevens Pottery, on the Milledgeville and Gordon branch of the Central railroad, eight miles south of this city, was the scene of unusual excitement last Tuesday afternoon, caused by the shooting and killing of Daniel Gooden by David Upshaw. The following testimony, taken at the inquest by Coroner Scott tells the story:
   Inquisition. 
   In the matter of Daniel Gooden, who was shot at Stevens Pottery on Tuesday afternoon, May 16, 1893, and inquest held over his body by me, W. S. Scott, Coroner of Baldwin County in the State of Georgia, this May 17th, at his residence in said county, he having been removed from the Pottery where he was shot to his residence where he died. The following witnesses were sworn according to law and on oath said to wit:
   Johnnie Gooden sworn says deceased was my father. I went with him to Stevens Pottery with him yesterday afternoon after the mail. My father was going from the office to the s hop when Mr. Upshaw shot him in the back with a double barrel shotgun, and the second time he shot him in the face. Papa did not say anything after he was shot. Mr. Pearce and Wiley Vinson brought my father home where he died last night. Mr. Upshaw was out by the platform when papa came out of the office. I am nine years old.
   Johnnie (his mark) Gooden.
   Jack Scott sworn says: I was standing in the Pottery door at Stevens Pottery yesterday afternoon about 2 o'clock. Mr. Daniel Gooden came up to store and hitched his oxen at the rack and went into the store. I saw him come out and he was coming towards the Pottery door where I was standing. When Mr. Gooden came out of the store Mr. Upshaw was standing on the porch in front of the store with a double barrel breech-loading shot gun. As Mr. Daniel Gooden came out in [the] road Mr. Upshaw followed him and shot him (Gooden) in the back. When Upshaw shot, Gooden threw his hand to the place where he was shot and says, "Oh, don't kill me". Mr. Upshaw says, "God damn you" and shot him in the face with the other barrel of the gun; put more shells in the gun and walked off. All this happened at Stevens Pottery, Ga., on Tuesday, May 16th, 1893. Mr. John Pearce and Wiley Vinson carried Mr. Gooden home. Didn't hear Mr. Upshaw say anything to Mr. Gooden before he shot. Mr. Gooden fell where he was first shot. They were about seven or eight steps apart when Upshaw shot. (signed) Jack Scott.    
   Lewis McCullar sworn says: I don't know anything about the shooting. Early this spring Mr. David Upshaw and Marion Weaver came to my house and told me that Mr. Gooden had been using some bad language and telling scandalous tales about Upshaw's wife, and Upshaw asked my advice about the matter. I advised him to use the law on Gooden. We consulted a lawyer who told us he could sue Gooden for damages, but didn't think it would amount to much, and advised us not to spend any money on it. Upshaw said he could not live and have a man talking about his wife in that way, but said he would sell out and leave the settlement to keep from hurting him (Gooden). Upshaw asked me to see Gooden and if he (Gooden) would not make any more remarks about him or his wife, or would not speak to him (Upshaw), he (Upshaw) would let the matter drop. I saw Gooden and he agreed to Upshaw's terms , and would say no more about the matter. Upshaw told me on Sunday last that Gooden was still talking about his wife, but didn't say what he was going to do, but said he couldn't put up with it. Upshaw didn't say he went to see Gooden about the matter. (signed) Lewis McCuller (sic). 
   Dr. E. T. Gilmore sworn says: I was called to see Dan'l. Gooden last night about 11 o'clock and found him in a dying condition, from one wound in his face, his left eye being shot out and several shot in his face, and think the wound in his face and eye was the cause of his death; also found a wound in his back from his buttock up to his shoulders. The principal part of the wound was over the region of the kidneys, but mostly on the left side. They were small shot. All this happened in Baldwin County on Tuesday, May 16th, 1893. (signed) E. T. Gilmore, M.D.
   Joe McCullar sworn says: I went up to David Upshaw's house on yesterday afternoon and he asked me to go with him to the Pottery and I went. He carried his gun with him. Gooden's name was not mentioned by us on the way. When we first saw Gooden he went down to the store ahead of us. Didn't hear any conversation between Upshaw and Gooden. Didn't see the shooting. As Gooden passed Upshaw, Upshaw says "Dan, I suppose you have been talking about my wife again." Gooden made some reply but I didn't understand what it was. I thought Mr. Upshaw was going to shoot Gooden, and I walked off to keep from seeing it. I went in the house as soon as Upshaw and Gooden commenced talking. All this happened in Baldwin county on Tuesday, May 16th, 1893. (signed) J. W. McCullar.
   W. E. Brown sworn says: On Sunday morning, a week ago, Daniel Gooden was at my house and told me what he saw with his own eyes he was obliged to believe. Said he saw Mrs. Upshaw and a man go in the bushes together, but would not tell the man's name. We were talking about some other matter when he told me about Mrs. Upshaw. Says he only saw Mrs. Upshaw and a man go in the bushes together. I told David Upshaw what Gooden had said. Upshaw flew in a heat of passion  and said, "G-d d--n him, he had promised not to mention my or my wife's name anymore." (signed) W. E. (his mark) Brown.
   Verdict.
   Georgia, Baldwin County: - We the coroner's jury, having been summoned by W. S. Scott, Coroner, to hold an inquest over the remains of Daniel Gooden  - Dr. E. T. Gilmore examining the body in our presence, find that he came to his death by gunshot wound inflicted by David Upshaw and decide the same to be voluntary manslaughter. Signed, W. R. Fenn, Foreman, A. F. Bloodworth, Ira C. West, N. G. Parker, C. L. Patterson, C. L. Robinson.

   David Upshaw free. The jury renders a verdict of "not guilty."
   When we went to press last week the trial of David Upshaw, charged with the murder of Daniel Gooden, was progressing in the superior Court. The killing occurred at Stevens Pottery on the 16th of May, 1893. The hearing of the case at the last term of the court resulted in a mistrial, and Upshaw, failing to make a bond of $5,000 went to jail.
   The trial consumed two days. Both sides were ably represented and the case attracted a good deal of attention.The defense introduced no witnesses, but depended on the statement of the prisoner.He stated that Gooden had persistently slandered his wife, and he had killed him.
   The jury consisted of Messrs. J. R. Collins, T. J. Smith, C. M. Smith, L. L. Bass, C. P. duBignon, W. D. Kemp, J. B. Chandler, G. R. Buckner, R. B. Brown, C. M. Brake, W. H. Renfroe and J. W. Barnes.
   The prisoner was defended by Messrs. D. B. Sanford, J. D. Howard and Roberts & Pottle. Solicitor General Lewis was assisted in the prosecution by Col. Robert Whitfield and Jerry M. Moore.
   After deliberation of two or three hours, the jury returned a verdict of "Not Guilty," about 8 o'clock Tuesday night and the prisoner was discharged.

DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1a. (contributed by Mr. Carman Upshaw, Dec. 2003): 
   John Upshaw was born in Webster Co., Missouri, 18 miles east of Springfield in October 1841, and was the second son born to Essel Upshaw. He assisted his father on their farm in early life, attended the schools of Webster County and, when twenty one years of age, branched out to make his own way in life. He married Miss Margaret Caldwell, daughter of James Caldwell, who came to Webster Co., Missouri, from Illinois in an early day, and there passed the remainder of his days. John & Margaret (Caldwell) Upshaw settled on a farm in Webster County, where they remained until 1871, when he came to settle on Fox Creek, where he followed the arduous duties of a farmer. In 1890 he and his uncle built the roller mill at that place and he resided on a farm near the mill. Eight children were born to this marriage: William, John S., Henry, Elizabeth, Evaline, Martha, Frank and Edward. His wife died in 1874 [sic: 1877] and his second union was with Miss Frances Woolton [sic], who has borne him eight children: Oliver, Sarah, Victoria, Ira ("Oda"), Sheldon ("Sheldy"), Earl ("Early"), Bentley ("Ben"), Tony, Orville and Max. In politics Mr. Upshaw is a stanch [sic] Republican, and as a citizen and neighbor stands deservedly high. (- "A Reminiscent History of the Ozark Region" (1894), pp. 757-58). (Editor note: although this states "eight" children were born to John and (second wife) Miss Frances Woolton [sic], TEN are listed; correction & documentation needed).

9. 1902, 24 Aug: Newspaper Item:
   Son's Murderous Attack on Parents. Boy who left home after Quarrel Returns and Shoots Father and Stepmother.
   Republic Special. Salem, MO -, Aug. 23 - William Upshaw, 20 years old, who left home after a violent quarrel last spring, returned home at 1 o'clock this morning, broke into the house, shot his father through the chest, fired two shots into his stepmother's breast, and then blew his brains out on the railroad near their house.
   The only cause that can be assigned for the tragedy is that the son was opposed to his father's second marriage and took a bitter dislike to his stepmother.
   Mr. Upshaw is gradually sinking and is not expected to live, but his wife was not so seriously injured.
   Young Upshaw, who had been living all summer in St. Louis since leaving here, returned home unexpectedly and entered his father's house through a window which had been left open. When he got inside he began to throw the dishes off the dining room table. This awakened the household and Thomas Upshaw, the boy's father, went downstairs to investigate.
   On finding the son in such as angry state the father ordered him to go upstairs and go to bed. The boy started, with his father following close behind. They had gone probably half way up the steps when the son suddenly wheeled around, and, drawing a revolver from his pocket, fired point-blank at his father. The old man fell to the steps. The bullet entered the chest on the left side, about an inch above the heart.
   The son then proceeded on up the stairs, Mrs. Upshaw having been terror-stricken by the shots, bolted her room door and took refuge under the bed. Young Upshaw kicked down the door,  dragged his stepmother out and shot her twice in the breast. The shock rendered her unconscious. Believing her dead, he left the house, crossed over to the railroad tracks, about 100 yards distant, and shot himself through the head, dying almost instantly.
   Neighbors were aroused by the shots and ran to the scene. A physician was summoned, but no hope is entertained for the recovery of Mr. Upshaw. The bullets struck Mrs. Upshaw in such a way as to glance to one side, and only flesh wounds were inflicted. Had it not been for the darkness young Upshaw would have doubtless have inflicted mortal wounds upon her, too.
   Before leaving home last spring the son threatened to kill them both, but little heed was paid to the threat, as it was not thought he would attempt to carry it out.

(NOTE: This news item may not concern this particular family, although they did live in Salem, MO; Salem is in Dent County.

1. Let me update you on a little info.  James Franklin WOODS d. 12 Dec. 1939, John Dawson d. 4 Dec. 1948, Ann Elizabeth d. 1889, Issac Essel d. 7 Jan 1938, Josephine d. 5 April 1951, and Minnie Alice d. 11 April 1951.  John Dawson (aka Doss) was my ggg-grandfather with his first wife, Emma Olivia FILER (second wife was Nellie Goodman, whose brother is another one of my ancestors!).

COMMENT: 

1. There is a problem with this lineage: 
   1. There was a "Frank Upshaw", born in 1880, child of H.A. & Louisa Upshaw of Douglas Co, Missouri (per 1880 census). 
   2. In 1910 a "Frank Upshaw" married "Martha Strunks" in Douglas Co, Missouri (per 1910 marriage record).
   3. In 1910 census a "Frank Upshaw" age 30, married to "Martha J. Upshaw" are in 1910 Douglas Co. census. This man was born in 1880, not 1874, and he is not found in later records, although "Albert Frank Upshaw", born 1874, does and is obviously the man who married Martha J. Strunks in 1910.  
   4. So what became of the Frank Upshaw, age 30, in the 1910 census?

14. 1880, 1 June: Deliberate suicide.
   Mr. J.M. Upshaw shrouds himself for the grave and commits suicide.
   Yesterday afternoon Mr. J.M. Upshaw, agent of the Wheeler and Wilson sewing machine company in this city, committed suicide. About 1:30 o'clock the deed was committed in his room, at the residence, on Jackson street, of Dr. J.C. Harris, who is a brother-in-law.
   This was one of the most deliberate suicides we have ever chronicled. He dressed himself in black, arranged the bed so no blood would get on the clothing, wrapped a towel around his neck and another around the head, so blood would not get on his collar, lay down and fired the fatal shot.  The pistol was a Derringer of 41 calibre. The ball passed through his head and struck the wall. A letter was found in his breast pocket, directed to Dr. J.C. Harris and wife, in which he said the cause of taking his life was his extreme bad health. He thanked all for kindness to him, and gave directions as to his funeral. The letter was quite a lengthy one and in many places he spoke in a very tender manner of Mrs. Harris - his sister - and the doctor. Dr. Stanford was summoned immediately but could do nothing as he was then in a dying condition. In about an hour and a half after the shot was fired he breathed his last. 
   Inquest.
   Coroner S.O. Lloyd had a jury summoned and held an inquest. The following is the evidence:
   John Harris, sworn, said: I went to dinner at 1:30 o'clock; went into my room with my wife, and was sitting down; in about two minutes heard a pistol fire and heard something like a ball strike the wall; mother thought it was somebody shooting a parlor rifle in Mrs. Struppa's lot; mother told me Mr. Upshaw was in his room, and I walked in and found him lying on the bed, shot; Mr. Whittle and Mr. Barber then came in; he lived about an hour and a half; at breakfast he appeared cheerful as usual; he has been in bad health for several months; have heard him say his troubles were more than he could stand; the pistol was lying by his side; it is a Derringer pistol.
   Physician's Statement.
   This is to certify that Mr. J.M. Upshaw came to his death by his own hand from a pistol shot which entered the right temporal bone, passing through the brain and left temporal bone causing death in an hour and a half. Wm. W. Flewellen, County Physician.
   R.C. Wycht, sworn, said: Saturday deceased was at the Wheeler and Wilson sewing machine office; he said he wanted me to go to mr. Cadman's and help him select a pistol; he said he wanted it to kill snakes  and alligators, that he was going in a country where there were alligators; I told him I would buy a Colt's - a repeater; he said he wanted a single-barrel pistol, and an effective one  - one that would shoot with effect; Cadman didn't have the pistol he wanted, and he went to Mr. Schober's and purchased one; he asked Mr. Schober if 41 calibre was an effective ball; he gave $4.25 for the pistol and cartridges; after we came out he asked me if I thought that pistol would shoot a ball through a man's head or body; that I would hate to be shot with it; we then went to ride; we rode around the race track and then to Dr. Harris'; during the ride he talked to me of his troubles - about losing his wife and children - that he had been in a great deal of trouble during about fifteen years; he said it was only a question of time as to how long he would live; that he was troubled with a disease that no physician could tell him what was the matter with him; I was in his room Sunday afternoon; he said he felt worse than he had felt in a couple of months; said he didn't think he would live many more days; he said nothing that would make me suspect he would do this. He came to the office this morning and I took him to his home in a wagon. 
   James W. Barber sworn, said: About half past one o'clock I was walking up Jackson street, opposite Mr. Harris' residence; heard the report of a pistol; I paid no attention to it; a young lady asked a Negro at Mr. Harris' what was the matter; I went to the house and met Mr. John Harris who asked me to come in as quick as I could as Mr. Upshaw had shot himself; I found Upshaw lying in the bed, on his back with a towel wrapped around his head, and another under his chin; I then found he had a Derringer pistol in his right hand; Mr. Whittle then came into the room; Mr. Harris then took the pistol out of his hand; Dr. Stanford came and said he would die; I asked Mr. Harris to examine his clothes as he might have left a letter; on examination a letter was found directed to Mr. and Mrs. Harris; it was a very feeling letter.
   Verdict. We, the jury, find that J.M. Upshaw came to his death from a gun-shot wound through his head, and that the shot was fired by his own hand. 
   R.H. Estes, foreman; J.B. Hill, J.A. Kirven, E.B. Vandenberg, J.H. Conoway, E.A. Borders, E.A. Thompson, E.P. Dozier, Jas. Bussey, A.A. Boyd, F.M. Bagley, W.T. Barr.
   Mr. Upshaw was 42 years of age; was born in Elbert County, and removed from Athens to this city a few years since. He was agent for the Wheeler & Wilson sewing machine in this city, and formed many friends. Continued ill health caused him to take this rash step. For eighteen months he has been very much depressed, but for a week past he seemed better and was in cheerful spirits.
   To the bereaved ones we extend our sympathy.

8. 1883, 9 June: Newspaper item: 
   Supposed Drowning. Last Tuesday about dark a Negro rode up to the ferry on the Alabama side of the river and called to the ferryman to take him across. The ferryman replied that he was eating supper and would be over in a few minutes. The Negro said he could not wait and plunged into the river on a horse. When about midway the horse became uncontrollable and the Negro was thrown from his back. The animal swam to the shore, but the Negro was seen no more. The horse was afterward claimed by Mr. Lee Upshaw who lives on the Alabama side, and was doubtless stolen from his lot by the Negro.

   Death of Mr. Leroy Upshaw. Mr. Leroy Upshaw died at his home near Glennville, Alabama, a few days ago. Mr. Upshaw was about fifty years of age, and one of the wealthiest and most highly respected citizen of Russell County. (Source: Columbus Enquirer-Sun, issue of 8 Oct 1888, page 4).

10. (Note: These last two items, dated 1883 & 1888, are unclear, as it appears that Leroy Jack Upshaw had died prior to 1880, when Anna Upshaw reported being a "widow" in the census).
 
11. No grave marker found for Leroy/Jack Upshaw in www.findagrave, May 2017.

   Obituary: 
      On the 6th of August, 1897, a heavenly messenger from the Courts of Glory came and bore on high the spirit of our dearly beloved brother A.W. DeVore. 
      Bro. DeVore was born Oct. 6, 1839, died Aug. 6th, 1897. He joined Providence Baptist church, July 18, 1855, and served as Deacon 19 years. As a Deacon he was ever alert to duty and met the responsibilities of that office with decision and courage; bold and fearless, contending "for the faith once delivered to the saints"; was so faithful and consecrated that even a stranger could not be in his church long without being reminded of the qualities attributed to the Apostolic deacons, of honest report, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom very able and fervent in prayer. As a Sunday school superintendent he was untiring and never seemed happier than with his loving family and church, with Bible in hand expounding the Scriptures, singing, preaching and training up the young in the way they should go. As an able counselor and sweet singer, his voice has been heard and his influence felt throughout the Hightower Association. Oh! How we'll miss him. 
      Brother DeVore had been a great sufferer since the late war and had carried in his flesh a minute-ball (sic-minie-ball) put there while in defense of his country. He bore his afflictions with such patience and fortitude, that he was seldom ever heard to complain. As representative of Milton County  in the Georgia legislature he was faithful, careful and painstaking, and discharged the duties of his office in honor to himself and constituency. 
      As to his faithfulness as a church member he could not be excelled. His pastor always found in him a faithful friend; and he was never absent from his church meetings until a few weeks before his lamented death. When he was compelled to yield to the strong hand of affliction, and in spite of all that loving and willing hands could do, he had to succumb to the last enemy that's to be conquered, which is death. After bidding farewell to family and friends, he crossed the dark river, leaving a consecrated wife, four daughters, one son, an aged mother, brothers, sister and a host of relatives and  friends to mourn his loss.
   After appropriate service, conducted by Rev. James Tatum, his body was laid to rest in the old church yard to which he had consecrated thirty-nine years of his life, to rest till resurrection morn. H, T. Tatum.

10. 1890, 19 September: The Oglethorpe Echo, issue of Friday, September 19, 1890:
     Death’s Sad Claims.
      A gloom of sadness was cast over both Lexington and Crawford Sunday morning last by the announcement of the death at 7 o’clock the evening before of Mrs. J.L. Jarrell,nee Miss Lilla Upshaw, of the latter place.
      That death loves a shining mark is verified in this taking off of one of the most beloved ladies of the county. In her school-girl days, when the writer first knew her, she was a universal favorite. We remember well how the smaller children of the school would cling about her and listen to her  with almost rapture as she taught them their lessons or told them sweet stories calculated to lead them to a nobler manhood or womanhood and finally to that beyond in which her soul now resides.
      As she grew to womanhood her loveliness of character and disposition grew with her, and to be her acquaintance was to be her admirer, and all who knew her loved her for her amiableness and lovely character.
     Early in life she became a member of the Presbyterian church and her devotion to the vows she had taken and the consistency with which she lived that religion she professed was indeed beautiful.
     While in the bloom of her young womanhood she gave her heart and hand to him who is now inconsolable in his sad bereavement. To him she was a faithful and loving wife and help meet, ever brightening their home with her loveliness of disposition. Though bad health took many of the pleasures of life from her, she lived uncomplainingly for the happiness of him she loved and never did she let any opportunity to add to his pleasure or comfort go unheeded. In his unspeakable grief he has not only the sympathies of a host of friends but they share in his sorrow and his and their bereavement. He is doubly bereaved that the infant whose being caused her death was taken with her.
      She leaves besides a sorrowing mother, Mrs. S.H. Stokely, and a heart-broken sister, Mrs. L. M. Johnson, who can but be consoled that they may meet her in that land of bliss where there is no death; no tears of grief.
      The remains were interred at the cemetery at Crawford Monday morning at ten o’clock, Drs. Gibson of that place, Lane, of Athens, and Rev. E. A. Gray, of this place, conducting the funeral services, while a large congregation  of loving friends and relatives bowed their heads in a sorrowing submission to the dispensation of Him who doeth all things well.

COMMENTS:

1. (note from Mrs. M.M. Twitty, 1502 Munn Drive, Ennis, TX, in 1971, from Mrs. Everett B. Horgan (unknown to me):  General Alexander Bradford Upshaw was a General on the Staff of Gov. Porter of Tennessee and Assistant Commissioner of Indian Affairs under President Cleveland. He was prominent in the political and social life in Washington. He refused the ambassadorship of Spain and Brazil; he had great magnitude and charm.

2. No marriage record has been found in Greene Co., Ga., and I believe this location as given by Mrs. Twitty is incorrect.

Buried at City Cemetery, Social Circle, GA. Cause of death: Cerebral Hemorrage.

11. Comment:  the information given on the death certificate of Maud A. Upshaw, as reported by her daughter, Mrs. Emily Lutz, regading the parents of Maud Upshaw is incorrect. Her parents were John J. & Martha C. Armstead; there was no "Zacharias" (or any variation) Armstead in Georgia in the 1860, 1870 or 1880 censuses; neither was there a "Clara" Armstead in the 1860, 1870 or 1880 censuses. Emily (Upshaw) Lutz reported this in 1930, which was 51 years after the death of John J. Armstead & 32 years after the death of Martha Caroline Armstead; additionally, she was born in 1901 which was after the deaths of both her maternal grandparents, so she never knew them personally.

12. John Davis, 780 Third St.,, Herndon, VA 20170 <jocada3@verizon.net>; Descendant (2008) of James A. Armistead and Emily S. (Colley) Armistead through their son Joel Colley Armistead, who was a brother of John J. Armistead who was the father of Maud and "C.Z." Armistead. John J. Armistead's wife was Martha Caroline Eckles (1843-1898). John J. Armistead died 24 Sep 1879 and Martha then married George B. Stanton in 1882; 
   "I don't know what happened to  "C.Z. Armistead between 1880 and 1900,  but the Maud Armistead  who was living with her mother and grandparents in 1880 must have moved to Atlanta after her mother died in 1898 where she was working as a nurse at Grady hospital."

 - Social Circle News: Sanders Upshaw’s Death, Dec. 10th.
	The people of Social Circle were shocked and grieved at an early hour Thursday night, December 10, when news of the sudden death of Sanders Upshaw was heard shortly after nine o’clock here. During the day and up to the time of his death in his home, he had been in the downtown area and was apparently as well as usual. He and Mrs. Upshaw were in their room and had been talking and suddenly he breathed his last breath while in his chair.
	A pall of sorrow has fallen over our town in this sudden bereavement of a prominent and beloved lifelong citizen. His death brings sorrow to his devoted family, a large family connection and friends throughout his acquaintance. Of genial personality, he easily won and held the confidence and admiration of those whose privilege it was to know him throughout his life which was crowned with golden years.
	A native of Social Circle, he was born September 29, 1874, and was the youngest child of the late John Phillips Upshaw, and Mary Stark Selman Upshaw, both prominently identified in Walton County, and both natives of Walton County. He attended Emory-at-Oxford and Young Harris Colleges.
	Mr. Upshaw had been engaged with farming interests many years. He was a member of Social Circle First Baptist Church where he was a loyal supporter through the years. Always interested in civic affairs he was generous to all worthwhile endeavors for the betterment of his native town. Cordial in manner, he stood for what the name of Social Circle implies.
	A beloved citizen has been lost to the town and to the many who will miss him but memories of him will be treasured through the years.
	Largely attended and impressive funeral rites were held at eleven o’clock Saturday morning in the First Baptist Church with the pastor, the Rev. C. W. Howard, and the Rev. C. D. Read, ministers officiating. Sacred hymn were sung by the choir with Mr. Frances Robertson piano accompanist.
	Pallbearers were F. M. Lloyd, Robert D. Eckles, Dudley J. Chandler, George A. Rutherford, John Hogan, W. B. Stephens Jr., P. A. Hale, and L. Stanton Duval.
	The beautiful and numerous floral offerings paid silent but lovely tribute to this beloved relative and friend.
	Interment followed in the Upshaw family lot in Social Circle Cemetery. The E. L. Almand Company, funeral directors, had charge of arrangements.
	Surviving the deceased is his wife, the former Miss Rubye Cook, a daughter of the late Dr. and Mrs. R. A. Cook, of Social Circle; also surviving are the daughter, Mrs. Fred C. Hale, and husband, and their son and daughter, lt. Sanders F. Hale, of Ft. Benning, and Miss Carol Hale, of West Georgia College, Carrollton, and Social Circle; and one sister, Mrs. Charles A. Sockwell, of Covington, and one nephew, James O. Gresham, of Plant City, Florida; nieces, Mrs. James F. Biggers, of Covington, Mrs. Arthur Gannon, Athens, Mrs. Press Vickers of Clermont, Florida, Mrs. George Holladay, Montgomery, Alabama, Mrs. James Caves, Tampa, Florida, and other relatives who are extended sincere sympathy int heir sorrow.
	Quite a number of the out-of-town relatives of both Mr. and Mrs. Upshaw attended funeral rites, and many out-of-town friends were at the family home on Friday.
	The Tribune family joins many friends in assurances of sympathy to the bereaved loved ones.

   A Joke's Not a Joke When it's on Upshaw.
   He Ate Soap Candy - He got Sick - Now he asks Pure Food Authorities to Prosecute Candy Maker. It Looks Serious.
   That even an April fool joke may be carried to the point where it ceases to be humorous and develops into a nauseating and melancholy affliction, is the deep-rooted and unshakable opinion of William F. Upshaw, the well-known manager of the Aetna LIfe Insurance Company in this city.
   While riding home on as car Wednesday evening Mr. Upshaw was approached by a friend, who extended to him a tempting box of candy.
   "Sue," said Mr. Upshaw, "I'll try a piece of that; it looks mighty good to me."
   Then he bit into it good and strong and began chewing. In about ten seconds bubbles began to rise in his mouth, and the faster he chewed the faster they rose, and in about two seconds more he gulped the whole thing down. Mr. Upshaw swallowed, he says, to keep his friend from knowing that anything was wrong.
   But Mr. Upshaw punished the organism of the inner man to no purpose;  the friend found out. For that piece of soap, nicely and attractively encased in candy coating, has a round-trip ticket with no lay-overs, and it doubled back on the route at a rate of speed heretofore not of record.
   After that joke was played on him Mr. Upshaw got sick and he also got serious, in fact, it may be said, without exaggeration, that Mr. Upshaw became exceedingly "riled."
   Accordingly, Mr. Upshaw purchased a box of that "April fool" candy Thursday morning and went immediately to the office of Commissioner of Agriculture T.G. Hudson, and demanded that the manufacturer of the candy be made to show cause why he should not be prosecuted for violating the regulations of the recently-enacted pure food law.
   Mr. Hudson referred Mr. Upshaw to Attorney General Hart, to whom he submitted samples of the candy with the request that the matter be investigated  with a view to ascertaining if the law in question had been violated. Judge Hart has not yet formulated an opinion.
   "I don't blame the friend who gave me the candy," said Mr. Upshaw, "but I do blame the man who made the candy and sold it. That stuff is nothing in the world but the vilest turpentine soap and is enough to kill a person. It made me deathly sick and I wish it investigated.

He entered the business field in North Carolina, later becoming General Agent for the Aetna Life Insurance Company. I never had the opportunity of meeting him, but he was known as an excellent underwriter all over the United States. My husband did much traveling over the country from the mid thirties to the sixties and often were asked if he were related to Will Upshaw of Raleigh, and always Cousin Will was spoken of with respect and affection. 
   Cousin Will was married (1) Annie Gibbs Kinnard, a third cousin from Newnan, Ga., in 1899.  She was born in 1877 and died ca. 1918. They had five sons: Berrien Kinnard Upshaw, William Francis Upshaw, James Arnall (Hopp) Upshaw, Edward Hall Upshaw, Sage Harden Upshaw.

The Reader's Digest is coming through to me all right, but the other newspapers have not come. The Court reporting is coming along all right." Sage is Secretary to a Lieut.-Colonel since being with the Army in the States.

Upshaw, (2) After 76 years, the Upshaw general merchandise store is still in business at this site, once known as Rosebud, Georgia. The store was operated nearly half a century by Mr. and Mrs. Olin E. Upshaw.
    For Sale, New Fords $395 - Upshaw’s Store, Rosebud, Ga. (Year 1915)
   In 1915 you could buy at Upshaw’s General store in Rosebud, Georgia, a Model T Ford for $395, a Dodge automobile for $800, a hand made woman’s picture hat for $10,  a fancy buggy for $65 - and groceries - well, five to six cents a pound for meat would give you some idea. 
   It was a store that sold everything but undertaker’s supplies, and bought everything that could be sold.
   The Upshaw general merchandise store, a historic landmark, is still in business after 76 years and is operated by Mrs. A.B. Cartwright. It is located in the Grayson-Rosebud Road in extreme southeast Gwinnett County.
   The store’s former operators, widely known and highly respected Olin E. Upshaw and his wife, Mabel Davis Upshaw, can see from the living room of their home the old store,  where they worked and struggled for nearly a half century,  serving the needs of rural people.  Their life together is a fascinating story - a part of the early American dream of independence won through hard work, honesty, frugality, and good business practices.
   The store was started in 1894 in a small frame building by Mr. Upshaw’s father, the Rev. Preston C. Upshaw, a Primitive Baptist minister and farmer. It was then a wilderness criss-crossed by wagon trails. Olin took over management of the store in 1907 after finishing business college in Atlanta. Mrs. Upshaw joined him in 1911 as wife and helper.
   Under Mr. Upshaw’s management the store grew into the largest store of its kind in Georgia, serving an area from Lawrenceville to Monroe and Conyers to Stone Mountain. 
   “One year we did one hundred thousand dollars in sales,” Mr. Upshaw recalled. “At today’s prices that would mean moving more than a half million dollars in merchandise.”
   The area was populated mostly by cotton farmers. Mr. and Mrs. Upshaw extended credit to families at the start of a year for seed, fertilizer, groceries and other necessities.  In the fall Mr. Upshaw would buy their cotton, and apply the proceeds toward their debt.  If it came a short crop year, he would extend the balance of their debt into another year.
   “Everyone paid his debts,” Mr. Upshaw said. “It was a day of rugged honesty. Everyone made it on his own. We didn’t start losing money on anyone until later years when we went on 30 days credit.”
   During a period of hard times before the first World War, Mrs. Upshaw, creative and deft at needle work,  started a millinery shop, and with the aid of two helpers, made women’s hats, children’s hats, baby bonnets, and special picture hats. Her special $5 hat would now sell for $50 to $100.  Here trade extended to shops in Atlanta. Mrs. Upshaw didn’t charge for her services, made her profit on materials.
   “Some days,” she said, “hat sales would be the only cash we’d take in. The store side had nothing but butter and eggs to show for its efforts.”
    In the early 1920’s the boll weevil hit. The Upshaws had obligated themselves for nearly $100,000 in goods on eastern markets. Despite the economic collapse in cotton, they paid off every cent of their debt, while other merchants took bankruptcy. 
   “When times were bad, I’d cry and worry,” Mrs. Upshaw said. “Olin would come to the house, forget about the store and go to sleep.”
   Until they retired from the business in 1958, Mr. and Mrs. Upshaw worked a 16-hour day. 
   Always alert to ways of building his business, Mr. Upshaw started a trucking service in the 1920’s, hauling goods from Atlanta, and delivering fertilizer from railroad cars in nearby Loganville to farmers at 25 cents a ton. As much as 1,200 tons of fertilizer was delivered in one year. .
   Another innovation was coin due bills - in pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, 50 cent and $1 and $5, which were given in payment of produce. “One man in the community, who was pretty close with money, came in one day with $90 of those due bill coins and bought a carriage,” Mr. Upshaw recalls.
   Mr. and Mrs. Upshaw are scions of distinguished pioneer families of Gwinnett. Mrs. Upshaw’s mother was Cora Hawthorne, who descended from James and David C. Hawthorne. Another ancestor was Louisa Rutledge of South Carolina. Mr. Upshaw’s mother was Lena Francis. His grandfather was Sir Jonathan Francis, who came to America after graduating from Oxford University in England. He was a textile engineer. The Upshaws have a daughter, Mrs. Eugenia Upshaw Carter of Nashville, Tenn.  
   Mr. Upshaw has been president of the Walton County REA for about 20 years, and a member of the Gwinnett Zoning and Planning Board for 13 years.

3. Papa, a member of Sardis Church, was a devout Christian who was often called on to preach at various Primitive Baptist Churches. (see Sardis Church below). Also he was quite busy farming much of his acreage and operating the store. His son, Olin, was born in 1891. (also see below). was interested in the store so in 1907 at the young age of 16, he took over its management. 
   Papa at some time before his marriage had gone to a private school in Norcross and firmly believed in education. Olin chose a business school in Atlanta as being the most helpful for his responsibility in operating the store. After his marriage in 1911 to Mabel Davis of Grayson, Gwinnett Co.,  Georgia, he and Mabel both worked in the store - Mabel opening  women's apparel and millinery departments to the already large variety of of merchandise: groceries, fertilizer, farm equipment, hardware, dry goods,  carriages, buggies,  wagons - even household furniture and equipment, and soon automobiles - the first merchant in that part of the country  to sell them. In 1915 a model-T Ford  sold for $395.00, a two-horse carriage  $65.00, enough furniture and household equipment for a young couple  to start housekeeping for $50.00.
   The farmers could buy whatever they needed, then pay  their accounts when their corn,  cotton or other crops were sold in the fall. Sometimes, if the crop was short, these accounts were carried over for a longer period, but that was the day of scrupulous honesty; the bills were always paid. Everyone expected to make his own living and depended on no one else to make it for him. 
   Also there was  a barter system: a farmer might bring chickens, eggs, vegetables, etc., to trade for other merchandise. A due bill was given if there was a difference in cost to the farmer's advantage. One of the neighbors carefully saved  his due bills and came in one day with $90.00 worth! A fine carriage was his reward for thrift.  
   The Rosebud Store was one of the first companies to use motor trucks to haul their merchandise from Atlanta and to deliver fertilizer to customers, but at first this was not such a time saver because the roads were unpaved. The soil in that area is red Georgia clay which, when soaked with rain, is a heavy mud. Sometimes it would take all day to go to  Atlanta and back - a distance of about 35 miles - with the truck sliding and skidding or else miring up where the mud was deep. When Papa dirst moved to the Chester area the roads were just wide enough for a buggy or wagon, hardly more  than pig tracks. Every land owner was responsible for  keeping up the road in front of his property. Each owner went himself, or sent some one in his place, to work on the roads periodically, or he paid a stiff fine. 
   In 1900, a post office was installed in the store, which necessitated a name change since there was already a Chester, Georgia elsewhere. A list of suitable names was sent to Papa; Rosebud, one of the names, was chosen by him because he thought it would please Mama, since roses, especially the buds were her favorite flowers. Another version is that he allowed her to choose and from the list she chose Rosebud. At any event, although the Post Office  was closed many years ago, that area is still Rosebud, the road from Grayson being called Rosebud Road.
   Mabel was very talented in all types of needle work At home she used beautiful linens which she has embroidered and one of her specialities was the fine intricate embroidery of baby caps. The older generation will remember the exquisite baby caps of finest organdy or batiste, embroidered, and trimmed with hand made lace and ribbons.Since she could not personally do all the work required, Mabel had several women who worked under her direction. These baby bonnets were  sold in the store and also in shops in Atlanta. Another speciality was the  millinery department. Many orders came her way from Atlanta and elsewhere; customers came from miles around - Lawrenceville, Loganville, Monroe, Conyers.
   After the first World War the store did a tremendous volume of business - one year $100,000. Mabel and Olin went to New York and Baltimore to buy merchandise once or twice a year  They knew quality and bought no shoddy materials or workmanship. The business was under their active management until 1958. For over fifty years they had served the community -  often from "before say" to sun down, often with customers asking special favors up to midnight. A couple who lived near by leased the store for several years, until the husband died. His widow struggled on for a few months but finally had to give it up.So after nearly seventy years the store was closed.
   At some time a warehouse - for storage of cotton, corn, etc., until sold - was built back of the store building. When no longer needed for this purpose, odds and ends had been  stored there, not only from the store, but also from the two houses;  Papa and Mama's  and Mabel and Olin's. In 1973 the warehouse had to be cleared out because Olin had sold some of his property, including the corner where the store was located, for a housing development and shopping center. What to do? An auction was the answer; on 15 Sept. 1973 the auctioneers were there, crowds and crowds of people came,  cars were parked for a  mile or more on both sides of the cross-roads - a big day, and yet a sadness that a good way of life had passed on into oblivion.
   Everyone in the area around Rosebud - thirty or more miles in any direction - looked up to Papa with admiration and respect. They knew he was not only honest and honorable, but they could count on him for assistance of any kind whenever they needed it.  Just as his father, Forrest Tinsley Upshaw had been sought out for advice and help, so was the son, Callie Upshaw, and after his death, the grandson, Olin Upshaw.
   There have been many newspaper and magazine articles about the store and the family in the last several years,. Much of the above information  has been gleaned from these -  but naturally, the source of the data was Olin. He also has told us much that his younger brother, Preston Carl Upshaw, my husband, did not know, since he left Rosebud when he entered the University of Georgia, at 16 years of age,  and never lived there again, although there were, of course, many visits.

   Many honors have come Olin's way through the years, among them: he was president of the Walton County Rural Electrical Association and its successor, The Walton Electric Membership Corporation for a total of more than 33 years, a post he resigned 1 July 1972, but he remains on the Corporation's Board of Directors where he has served for more than 38 years. He has also been on the Gwinnett Zoning and Planning Board for over 18 years.
   The Olin Upshaws still live at Rosebud and are looking forward to a housing development and a shopping center to be built on some of the property Olin recently sold. He retained fifty-five or sixty acres, but had sold some acreage from time to time over the last fifteen or twenty years.
   Olin Upshaw and Mabel Chloe (Davis) Upshaw had one daughter: Margaret Eugenia Upshaw.

	The death of Dr. Upshaw brings sorrow to his devoted family, a large family connection, and to hundreds of friends here and throughout this section.
	Following an illness that became serious, in December, he had been confined to bed and but little hope had been held for his recovery. Realizing his illness critical, he wished to be at home with his loved ones and there spend his remaining days. He bore his affliction with a fortitude that is rare. During the months of his illness he had the tender and loving care of his devoted family, his physicians, nurses and loyal friends.
	Thursday afternoon at two o’clock the frail body fell peacefully asleep, to all that is earthly. In his death the town and community loses a beloved physician, a most useful man, a valuable citizen. He had been actively engaged in the Medical profession since locating here in the year, 1916, with the exception of the time he was in World War I. He was a Lieutenant in the U. S. Army and stationed at Camp Wheeler, Macon, Ga., from August 1917, to July 1918, when he was sent overseas and was in France until April 1919. In France he received commission of Captain, and an Honorable Discharge, his Commanding Officer, Lt. Col. Fred E. Jones, of the Medical Corps, pronounced him a “splendid officer in any selection.”

	In April 1917, he was married to Miss Ida Barron of Clarksville, Ga.
	Surviving him are: his wife and two daughters, Mrs. Robert Charles Aycock and Mrs. Theo L. Leres, a little grandson, Robert Charles Aycock, II, his sister, Mrs. Walter Barrett, of Graham, N.C.; his brothers, Olin E. Upshaw, of Rosebud, and P. C. Upshaw, of Atlanta who are tendered the heartfelt sympathy of many friends in their bereavement.
	Funeral services were held Saturday morning at 11:00 o’clock, at the residence, with Elder R. L. Cook officiating minister.
	Interment was in Circle Rest, city cemetery, with El. L. Almand Co., Directors. Services were concluded at the grave where many and lovely flowers now mark the newly made mound.
	Pallbearers were: Messrs J. H. Stephens, Sanders Upshaw, B. A. Malcom, J. P. Walton, Furman Lloyd, of Social Circle, and Dr. W. C. McGeary, of Madison.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. Note by Mrs. Preston C. Upshaw, 5 Oct 1970, on her Family Group sheet of this family: "Mrs. Robert Charles Aycock who states that her father was born in Gwinnett Co. Other members of the family give Walton Co. The confusion arises because the property of Preston Calhoun Upshaw was in Rockdale, Gwinnett and Walton Counties, spreading from the point where they all meet."

2. Harry Lee Upshaw, b 1 September 1893. He went to Emory University Medical School, where he earned his M.D. degree, and interned at a hospital in Seattle, Washington. He entered practice in Social Circle, Georgia; the fact that there was "family" there may have influenced his choice of location. Cousins John and Sanders Upshaw among other relatives, lived in Social Circle. Harry's wife - they were married 3 April 1917 - was the former Ida Barron of Clarkesville, Georgia, born 6 June 1897, d. 15 Aug. 1974. Here was a large family: three of her brothers graduated from Georgia Institute of Technology and were all famous football players. Her parents were David J. and Florence (Crow) Barron, who lived in Clarkesville, Georgia. Harry was a First Lieutenant, Army Medical Corps in World War I, serving in France until the Armistice.
   She and Harry had two daughters - Jean, born 9 June 1920 and Peggy, born 28 September 1923, both born in Social Circle, Georgia. When I first knew these children they were dear little girls, six and three years old. Both girls were married at nineteen years of age.
   Dr. Harry Lee and Ida (Barron) Upshaw lived in Social Circle all their married life. He died 5 April  1944 and is buried in the cemetery there.Ida continued to lived in their house and though both children had asked her to live with them, she preferred to keep her own home.  She died 15 August 1974 and is buried in Social Circle.

SECONDARY SOURCE:

1. e. Preston Carl Upshaw was born 28 July 1902. Mama wanted to name him for papa, but he disliked his nickname "Callie" (for Calhoun). My Preston is called "Carl" by all the family, but when I first met him he was called "P.C." or "Willie" - nickname from University of Georgia days.  The "Willie" was for a distant cousin William David Upshaw, grandson of Haston upshaw - one of Forrest Tinsley's brothers. Now only rarely is he greeted as "P.C." or "Willie" - by old time college friends.
   Preston's major at the University was Business Administration. He graduated in 1922 cum laude with the degree of B.S. in Commerce (now B.B.A.) and received many honors - Phi Kappa Phi, Beta Gamma Signa, Alpha Kappa Psi among them. After two years of teaching in the School of Business Administration, under Dr. Preston Brooks, a good friend - he came to Atlanta in June of 1924 to consider an offer from the Retail Credit company to enter their Managerial Training School. He accepted and on July 14, 1924 became affiliated with that Company. After a few weeks he was appointed assistant to the instructor and upon finishing the school was placed in one of the departments of the company..
   Soon after Preston entered the Training School we were introduced. I was working with the Retail Credit Company as private secretary to the President, Mr. Cater Woolford. Preston and I dated a few times,, off and on., and became engaged in July 1926 and were married 20 January 1927 at my home on the Prado in Ansley Park, Dr. J. Sprole Lyons, Pastor of First Presbyterian Church, officiated
   Two children: Sophie Anne Upshaw & Preston Carl Upshaw, Jr.

1. Our son, Allen Wright Upshaw, was born in Boston at Richardson House on January 14, 1942. When we moved back to Atlanta in the fall of 1943, it was  very difficult to find a place to live. We rented a house and looked for one to buy, finally finding the home we have occupied since the Spring of 1945.
   But tragedy struck on November 7, 1949, when our dear Allen, named for his great grandmother, Martha (MacAllen) Francis, lost his life as the result of an automobile accident. He lives safely with Jesus, and remains in our memories as the happy little boy he was.

   673: Emily Catherine Upshaw Armstrong (seated in accompanying photo).
   Mary Ellen Braneff submitted the following: Emily Catherine Upshaw Armstrong is her husband's great-grandmother.
   I will attempt to write a bit of history about Emily Catherine Upshaw Armstrong, my husband's great-grandmother. Her daughter Laura Mae Armstrong Coleman was my husband's grandmother and all of my information came from her as she used to stay with my husband and I for months at a time. Laura was about 11 years old when her mother was hospitalized. She was the 6th child of 9. Emily was born in 1856 in Bienville Parish, Louisiana. She married john Sherman DeKalb Armstrong May 7, 18976 in Chapel Hill, Washington [County], Texas at the age of 19. John had been married previously and had 4 children by that wife who died in 1875. Those children ranged from 10 years to 3 years. John had served in the Civil War and was a circuit preacher which took him from home quite often. He and Emily had their first child in 1877 and 8 more children arrived every 1, 2 or 3 years making a total of 13 that Emily had to cook for, do laundry and this was wash tubs, well water to be drawn on wash days, clothes lines and ironing with sad irons heated on a wood stove even in the heat of summer. Hard work for a small woman. Granny Laura told me that her mom was very depressed and would wander away from home and not know where she lived or her own children. This used to be called manic/depression and now called Bi-Polar which I believe she must have suffered from because it is still in the family tree. Emily gave birth to her last child in 1895 and was hospitalized in 1898 where she spent the rest of her life. John, her husband, died in 1901. There were 7 minor children who were placed  in foster homes. The older children moved in  with relatives or went out on their own. Our Granny Laura was placed with a family named Pilot ("Pee lot") and had a son named Pierre that she remembered and talked about frequently. Some years ago there was a large grocery chain called Henke/Pilot. I often wonder of that was the family she was with. The family was completely separated in all their growing up, marrying and child bearing years until in the mid fifties somehow they reconnected and had a wonderful reunion in Kountze, Texas at the home of Granny Laura's daughter. Laura married Thomas Coleman and had 2 daughters, my husband's mother Gracie and Louise. It was at Louise's home where they had their reunion and they stayed in touch often until death began to claim them. God rest all their troubled souls.Mary Braneff.

   Rev. A.G. Upshaw. This short notice will recall to many of the older residents of Coweta and adjoining counties the boyhood and young manhood of Rev. A.G. Upshaw. Some perhaps were comrades in war - others schoolmates. Many more remember him in the pulpit. Though deprived of his right arm, which he lost in battle, he was still active until a few years ago, when, on account of feeble health and advancing years, he was forced to withdraw from active work. He made his home with his daughter, Mrs. J.W. Brown, at Decatur, Ga., where he passed away on April 18 - aged 75. He is also survived by another daughter, Mrs. J.R. Wise, of Madras, and four sons, M. Paul Upshaw, R.A. Upshaw, C.G. Upshaw and George Forrest Upshaw. His body was brought to Madras and interred in the cemetery at Jones Chapel on April 19. (signed) "A friend".

   The sad news of last Sun. Nov. 6 was Mrs. A. G. Upshur was dead.
   People who knew her were proud to speak of her as a good woman as none of us ever knew a more devout Christian worker. Few people have such Christian faith for she has shown by her godly life that few people were so devoted to their duties of Christian welfare. She was always in a good humor & never known to worry & fret. She was also a great Bible student. We cannot do her any good now by speaking well of her but it ought to do us a lot of  good by her godly life with us  & her example & influence among the people all over the country about. So people let's weep not because she is gone but be thankful that she has been with us & profit by her example, learn to do better & God will reward us accordingly as Mrs. Upshur is now at rest in His care. Her spirit passed away just as the clock on the mantle was striking 11. Before she was married she was Miss Ida Allen of this place ... A Friend ... Stockbridge, Ga., ... Nov. 8.

   Mrs. H.M. Upshaw, one of Douglasville’s most beloved and highly respected ladies was summoned by death at 9:15 o’clock Wednesday morning after lingering in a semi-conscious condition since Saturday afternoon when she was stricken with a cerebral hemorrhage.
   Mrs. Upshaw was prominent in the social and religious life of the town; an active member of the First Baptist Church and loved by all who knew her.
   Before her marriage to Mr. H.M. Upshaw she was Miss Julia Tucker of Independence, Miss. She had lived here during her entire married life of 28 years, and her going away is not only a shock to her family and loved ones, but to the town and the community as well.
   All that medical skill and the tender care of love and friendship could do was done to strengthen the cord of life after she was first stricken and on Monday there was a ray of hope for at least a partial recovery, but all proved in vain and Wednesday the last thread was severed and her spirit was called home.
   The Funeral was held Thursday afternoon at the First Baptist Church, Rev. G.W. Light officiating. The funeral was largely attended an an [sic] evidence of the esteem in which the deceased was held, and also a wealth of beautiful floral offerings expressing the love of friends. The remains were interred in Douglasville Cemetery.
   Besides her husband, she is survived by her two sons, Herschel and Julian and one daughter, Miss Marjorie; two brothers, Robt. L. Tucker and Benjamin Tucker; and one sister, Mrs. Sandige, all of Mississippi.
   The Sentinel joins the community in heartfelt sympathy for the bereaved family.

   It surely was a sad tragedy in which Miss Upshaw, daughter of our late friend Mr. Lucius Upshaw, was so severely injured, when the roof of one of the newest and nicest theaters in Washington, D.C., gave way under the weight of a tremendous snow storm.
   Over a hundred people were killed  outright and many, many  others seriously injured. 
   Miss Upshaw was so seriously injured that it was thought at first she would lose both feet, but now it is hoped she will be spared one, as her condition is somewhat improved.
   Mr. Lucius Upshaw, Jr., who had been spending several weeks in Douglasville, has left for Washington to be in attendance on his sister.
   It is needless to say, except to give expression of the heart, that the thousands of friends here feel the deepest sympathy for their friend and the family because of this added sorrow.

   MISS CAROLYN UPSHAW LAID TO REST WEDNESDAY; VICTIM OF THEATRE CRASH.
   Enormous crowd attend funeral at First Baptist Church; young lady was Former Resident of Douglasville.
   On last Monday the people of Douglasville and surrounding territory were both shocked and grieved when the news reached here of the death of Miss Carolyn Upshaw which occurred at six o’clock that morning in Washington, D.C.
   Miss Upshaw was a victim of the Knickerbocker theatre catastrophe, which happened on the night of January 28th, when the roof of the theatre, which was covered with snow and ice, gave way,where she was pinned under the mass of steel and debris for eight hours before being rescued. One of her feet was completely severed from the body and the other so badly mangled
that it was necessary to remove part of it last Sunday.
   She was so completely exhausted that a transfusion of blood was necessary to give her strength with which to undergo this operation. Blood poison setting up from this caused her death.
   The body reached here on the noon train Wednesday from Washington, where it was met at the depot by a large number of relatives and friends. From there it was taken to the home of her uncle, Mr. H.M. Upshaw, to stay until the funeral exercises, which were held at 3 o’clock at the First Baptist church, conducted by Rev. J.W. Ham, pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, of Atlanta, and were attended by one of the largest number of people ever assembled at a funeral in Douglasville.
   The enormous floral offerings expressed the love and esteem of which Miss Upshaw was held by all the people who knew her.
   A quartette composed of Misses Ernestine Geer, Mary Vansant and Messrs. Grady King and Henry Abercrombie, her former school mates when she attended school here, rendered a very beautiful musical selection, “Asleep in Jesus.”
  Accompanying the body from Washington were Mrs. L.C. Upshaw, mother of Miss Upshaw, L.C.Upshaw, Jr., brother; Misses Marian and Louise Upshaw, sisters and Congressman Will D. Upshaw, uncle.
   Mrs. G.D. Lindsey, Mr. and Mrs. D.C. Huff and Miss Margaret Smith, of Atlanta, joined the funeral party at Brookwood station and accompanied them here.

   Earnest Willie to Wed Thomasville Young Lady. (Note: This article includes pictures of both William D. Upshaw & Miss Margaret Beverly).
   Engagement is announced of William D. Upshaw and Miss Margaret Beverly - it will be a May wedding - Mr. Upshaw's interesting career.
   The announcement appearing in the society columns of the Georgian's current issue of the approaching wedding of Miss Margaret Beverly, of Thomasville, Ga., to William David Upshaw, of Atlanta, is bound to cause a great stir of interest among the thousands of Atlantans and Georgians who know the talented editor-lecturer or are acquainted with his work.
   William D. Upshaw, or "Earnest Willie,"as he is better known, has for a long time occupied the position of one of the most-talked-of and widely-known men in Georgia. Thru his books, notably "Echoes From a Recluse,"and by his "rolling chair lectures," Mr. Upshaw has gained the ear of a great portion of the people of the South. 
   As editor of the Golden Age, a weekly magazine of wide circulation, published in Atlanta, Mr. Upshaw now maintains his high position as an influence in the upbuilding of humanity along public-spirited and undenominational lines, and his work is watched by the thousands who have known him or come beneath his influence.
   The story of William D. Upshaw's career reads like a history of triumphs over misfortune. He was born in 1867, in Coweta county, Georgia, coming to Atlanta when 9 years of age. Three years later he removed to Cobb County, where, at the age of 18, he was injured by a fall from a wagon. A severe spinal affection (sic) resulting from this injury, he was confined to his bed for more than seven years, suffering almost constantly.
   It was at this period of his life that he first gained the name of "Earnest Willie," writing under that pen-name for The Sunny South, at the suggestion of Miss Beatrice Christian, of Powder Springs, Ga. The prolonged illness, too, was the turning point in his career. On recovering sufficiently to rise from his bed by the aid of braces and crutches, he almost at once went on the lecture platform. Tho he still uses a crutch, he is tireless in his work, and spends a great deal of time in traveling.
   He met with instant sympathy and success. All thru the early nineties he lectured in the South, making friends wherever he went,. "Earnest Willie" he was called, and all who heard him thought the name pecularily apt and fitting.
   The founding of his paper, The Golden Age, in Atlanta, has in some degree withdrawn him from his platform work, but has enlarged the audience to whom he speaks. His work for Mercer University is attracting wide attention to that institution.
   The wedding is announced to take place early in May.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1.Sophie W. Upshaw, "Captain William Upshaw, Gent., Planter of Virginia ... " (Baltimore, MD: Gateway Press, 1975), page 29, 30:
   Isaac David UPSHAW(gen 6), born in 1834 is listed in the 1860 Coweta County, Georgia Census: dwelling # 994, with age given as 26, and his profession that of teacher. He was married to Addie STAMPS. This couple were the parents of William David UPSHAW (gen 7), born 15 October 1866 near Newnan, Georgia, in Coweta County. He was a U.S. Rep., 5th District from Ga., serving four terms: 1919-1927. At age 18 he was crippled in an accident at the family home - a farm in Cobb County. From his book, EARNEST WILLIE, (9th edition printed in Atlanta in 1901) he says his family lived in Atlanta at one time, where he atended Crew Street school. The family had moved from Coweta County to Atlanta for a few years, and then to Cobb or Douglas County.
   He was called "Earnest Willie" because he habitually signed his letters "Yours in Earnest". In his book, p. 453, he mentions his uncle, John R. UPSHAW (gen 6) (William(1), Forrest(2), Leroy(3), Forrester(4), Hasten(5)), of Marble Valley, Shelby County, Alabama, a soldier in the Confederate army. In writing the obituary for his sister, Sallie Blanche UPSHAW (gen 7), youngest dau. of I.D. and A.S. UPSHAW, who died 27 April 1895 at the home of her parents in Douglasville, he said she was "18 years, 6 months and 22 days old", making her birth date 5 October 1876. He lists his brothers and sister: Herschel M., Lucius C., and William D. UPSHAW and Mrs. Addie L. (UPSHAW) LINDSEY - all living - and little Glen O. ("in Heaven"). Addie Lee UPSHAW (gen 7) was married to G. Bunyan LINDSEY the second Sunday in February, 1888 at the UPSHAW home in Powder Springs, Douglas County, Georgia (page 84). They had a daughter, Dora Oneill LINDSEY. Lucius C. UPSHAW (gen 7) was married 17 November 1889 to M. Beatrice CHRISTIAN (p. 465, 663); they had two children: Lucius, Jr. (gen 8) and a daughter (page 622), Beatrice C. UPSHAW (gen 8), who died 15 June, circa 1894.
   Nearly all the information about Will D. UPSHAW, his brothers and sisters, was furnished by Mrs. Brumbley PRITCHETT, Decatur, Ga., to whom I am very grateful.

10. (Contributed by descendant Michael Brame, December 2011):
   re #596, James H(aston?) Upshaw; I believe his middle name is actially Haskins, not Haston. I have a tintype picture of him, and another tintype picture of his wife, Addie Ester Watwood. The tintypes appear to have been made when Addie was in her 20s  and James obvioiusly quite a bit older at the time, and are a little larger than postage stamps, and were oval cut for lockets. These tintypes were given to me by my Aunt,Willie Ethel (Brame) Rooks (their granddaughter) prior to her death. I also have a picture of Addie as a very elderly woman, seated in a chair. She died when I was about 11.I have a picture of their gravestone, which I got from the internet, possibly from the Upshaw Family Journal site. 
   re: #1085, Lizzie Beulah (Upshaw) Brame, she was my grandmother and her actual name is Beulah Lizbeth (Upshaw) Brame. She was married to my grandfather, William Hayden Brame. At home, they would refer to each other as Beulah and Willie. Since I lived only a few blocks from them during my early years, I spent a lot of time there in the 1950s, especially with my grandfather, William Brame. They had three children: my father, Jefferson Davis Brame (1905-1969), Willie ethel Brame (We ca;;ed her "Aunt Bill") who died in the 1990s, and Carl Edward Brame (died at age 17 in a vehicle accident sometime in the 1920s), Beulah, William and these three children are all buried in Maplelawn Cemetery in Paducah, KY.
   I lived in Paducah from birth (1945) until 1965. I can recall conversation in the family about Beulah's siblings, but even though several of them lived in Paducah as well, I didn't really have any close relationship with any of Beulah's siblings. I do believe that Nonie (might be more correctly spelled as Nonnie) was married to Q.L. Smith, according to my aunt Willie ethel. I do recall that Lee Thomas Upshaw was referred to in my family as "Uncle Lee Tom".
   (a subsequent email dated 14 Dec 20112, mentions "Here's an obit, from the Paducah (KY) Sun Democrat about Beulah Lizbeth Upshaw Brame. It's the one on the right. The other two are my parents. Although it doesn't spell out her middle name in full as Lizbeth, that's what my aunt Bill) (Willie Ethel Brame Rooks told me about her mother/my grandmother."_

She had long been a resident of Cherokee county and by her gentle nature and strong Christian character had gathered around her a large circle of admiring friends, all of whom are grieved over her passing.
   Years ago she joined the Methodist church and had lived the life of a Christian member.
   Impressive funeral services were conducted from the residence of her daughter, Mrs. A. V. Jones, Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock, with Dr. J. O. Pettis and Dr. Gibson officiating. The magnificent floral offerings bore mute testimony to the high esteem to which Mrs. Perry was held. Interment was in the city cemetery.
   Mrs. Perry is survived by four sons, B. F. Perry, of Ball Ground, C. A. Perry of Gadsden, Ala., John Perry of Dublin, Ga., and Thomas Perry of Florida. Five daughters, Mrs. A. V.

11. 1915, 29 April: Newspaper item: A Prominent Citizen Dead.
   On Wednesday afternoon our city was shocked to hear the news of the death of Mr. Claude Upshaw. Tho (sic) for some time his health has not been good, still it was thought that he was improving, and the seriousness of his sickness was not realized.
   Though for the past several years Mr. Upshaw has resided in Bremen, still Carrollton claimed him for her own, he having been for a long time a leading citizen of our community. He was a member of the Methodist church, a K. of P., of which order he had been Chancellor Commander, also a representative of his lodge at the State Grand Lodge on several occasions.
   His mother, Mrs. S. E. Atwell, and son, Mr. Al Upshaw, live in this city, while another son, Mr. Ralp (sic) Upshaw, lives in Bremen.
   Only recently Mr. Upshaw had purchased some property out from Bremen, and there had him constructed a new residence, which was just about completed.
   He leaves a wife, two sons, Al and Ralph, and a mother, Mrs. S. E. Atwell, besides numerous other relatives to all of whom his death brings a distinct shock, and to whom we tender our most heartfelt sympathy.
   The remains were interred in Carrollton Thursday afternoon.

3. Memories of my grandmother by Ted O. Brooke:
   When I was a child about three to seven years old, about 1946 to 1950, living at 1726 McLendon Ave., near Little Five Points, Atlanta, DeKalb Co., GA, after my mother Norah Owen left and went to Louisville, Kentucky, to live with her parents, my grandmother Pearl Upshaw looked over me and cared for me at home while my father served in the Navy, stationed at the Naval Air Base, then in Chamblee, Georgia. Several of the events with her continue vivid and fresh in my mind.
   Our home had a screened front porch where she had a rocking chair which she was partial to.  
I remember it well, and can still see her there in my mind as though it were yesterday, reading her Bible carefully and thoughtfully and I being impressed that this was something important and extraordinary. I have that Bible today, with several especially meaningful passages underlined, and plan to pass it on to my daughter Ashley.
   She would also do sewing in that favorite rocker. I recall her darning socks particularly. I have her darning needle; hand carved, probably by her husband, James. I would sit and play on the floor beside her and, I'm sure, make somewhat of a pest of myself. I recall that she would suggest a game in which we would count the cars that passed on McLendon by color - she would have me count the black cars and she would count all others and whoever counted the most would get some reward which I don't recall, probably a cookie. It was not until many years later that I realized, in those days, there were more black cars manufactured and sold than all others combined.
   I recall her taking me to the Inman Park Library where I discovered a treasure which would endure throughout my life - the wonderful world of books. Wisely, she would let me explore on my own so I could find and retrieve those items I found especially interesting. Uncle Remus and Bre'r Rabbit were favorites and I would dawdle until she would have to come and retrieve me to check out my books so we could go home. We rode the electric streetcar which ran on tracks in front of our home on McLendon.
   I vaguely recall her telling me many stories of our family and ancestors, their sacrifices during the War for Southern Independence and much more, regrettably none of which I can recall now as I was too young for any of that to impress me to the point of remembrance. It was said of her by many family members that she was the kindest person they'd ever known - that she never had an unkind word to say of anyone. I remember her with great admiration, fondness and love. It is interesting that it is these small events that we remember later in life and are so meaningful and it is those that go toward shaping our lives. It is a wise parent and grandparent who provide these to our children and grandchildren.
   Grandmother Brook, "Pearl" as she was called, passed away in October of 1961, the year I graduated from high school in Tucker, many years after I'd moved away and lost that close contact with her, which was my misfortune. I recall that the preacher who served at her funeral delivered a "Hellfire and Brimstone" message which I remember, not because of the weight of the message, but because I thought it was rather unfitting for such a noble person, but I recall it. I cried that day.

   Stole Horse and Buggy in Broad Daylight.
   Tuesday afternoon Messrs. Joe and Jim Wise, of Cedar Creek district, came to town, and, as they usually do, hitched their team in the rear of the H. C. Arnall Merchandise Co.'s store. The horse they were driving is a fine animal, and attracts attention wherever it is seen. The top buggy to which it was attached is almost new, and quite a handsome vehicle. When the owners of the turnout got ready to start home late in the afternoon they discovered to their dismay that their horse and buggy had disappeared. All efforts to locate the missing team were unavailing, and they reported their loss to the police. Diligent search was made in all directions Wednesday, but no trace could be found either of the team or the thief. Yesterday morning a negro passed through Raymond driving a horse and buggy, the animal corresponding in general  description to the horse stolen from the Messrs. Wise. Mr. J. R. Brook, who saw the negro as he passed, was struck by the horse's resemblance to the one that had been stolen, and communicated his suspicions to Mr. Burney Glass. Upon the chance that they might be on the trail of the horse thief wanted in Newnan they procured a team and gave chase, and after a sharp drive of several miles overhauled the negro near Ebenezer church, in the Sixth district. They took him in charge, together with the horse and buggy, and carried them to Raymond. Sheriff Brewster and Chief Shackleford, both of whom were in that vicinity looking for the thief, met at Raymond about the time that Messrs. Brook and Glass arrived with their  captive, and he was turned over to the officers, who brought him to Newnan on the Columbus train at half past 6 last night. 
   The horse proved not to be the one that had been stolen from the Messrs. Wise, nor was the buggy theirs. The negro declared that he had hired the turnout from another negro, that it was not a stolen team, and that he knew nothing about the horse and buggy that had been stolen from the Messrs. Wise. He subsequently confessed, however, that he stole the wise turnout; that he drove the horse and buggy Tuesday night o a point near the old Scroggin mill, 3 miles west of Newnan, and left them in the woods about 150 yards from the public road. He further confessed that on Thursday night, 26th ult., he stole a mule and buggy at McDonough, Ga.; that he left the mule in the country until yesterday morning, when he drove it to Newman; that he took a horse which he found hitched on the old Sargent lot, put it to his buggy and drove off, leaving the mule tied in the same lot where he got the horse. The horse proved to be the property of a negro named Newman, living near Moreland, who reported his loss to the police during the day. Later the mule was found hitched on the Sargent lot, , just as the negro had described. Shortly after dark Sheriff Brewster and chief Shackleford took the negro and drove out to the place where he said the Wise turnout would be found. Going about 3 miles out the Franklin road, the negro led the officers to a point in the woods where they found the horse and buggy, as he had told them. The horse was tied to a small tree, still hitched to the buggy, and had evidently been without food or water since the day it was stolen. Returning to town, the negro was lodged in jail, and to-day at noon Sheriff Sowell, of Henry County, came over and carried him to McDonough, where he must first stand trial for stealing the mule and buggy spoken of above. The extreme penalty for horse stealing is twenty years in the penitentiary, and those familiar with the quality of justice dispensed in Henry County for offences of this character do not doubt that the dusky scamp will get all that is coming to him over there, and perhaps more. Then he will take his turn in the Coweta courts, with results that will leave nothing to be desired in the way in the way of wholesome punishment.
   The negro's name is Russ Warner, and from all accounts he is a very accomplished rogue. About a month ago he stole a suit of clothes from his brother near town, and on Wednesday last he stole a lap-robe from Mr. Joe Dial's buggy in Newnan. The robe was recovered last night.
   Two rewards were offered for the negro's arrest - $35 by Sheriff Sowell, of Henry County, and $25 by Mr. Jim Wise. The money will go to Messrs. Brook and Glass, who effected his capture.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

1. Personal knowledge of son, Theodore ("Theo") Routon Brooke, father of Ted O. Brooke.

COMMENTS:

1. Comment by grandson Ted O. Brooke: although this surname was spelled "Brook", the "e" was added by James' second wife, Martha Catherine Pearl (Upshaw). I suspect she did this to distinguish between their Brook family and other Brook families in Carroll County, who had earned a bad reputation because of their "White Cap" activities in early 1893, which was only about a year after their marriage. 

2. Military record:  None; occupation:  Farmer

3. Family story, told by Helen Patterson Brook, daughter of Earnest Alton Brook, and granddaughter of James Robert Brook (in telephone conversation with first cousin Ted Brooke, 23 June 1998): According to what was told her by her father, Earnest Alton Brook, he said when he was a child in their family in Newnan and dinner was served, the plates were always set bottom-up and none were to be turned up until everyone was seated and grace was said.

4. Family story, told by Theodore Brooke, son of James Robert Brook, to Ted Brooke: when he was growing up in their family in Newnan, their family always had two different kinds of bread served at dinner; he recalls that after getting old enough to visit with friends, he observed that they only served one type of bread with meals. He remembers asking his father, James, about this and was told that "when I was a child (in "Reconstruction" years, aka "Occupation"), we often had only cornbread to eat for a meal and I vowed that, if I was able, when I had a family we would have more than just cornbread". He made good on it.

5. The four Brooke graves (James Robert, Elizabeth Ella (Morgan), Robert Adkin & Ruby Irene) at Liberty Christian Church in Coweta County were marked with footstones and landscaped in August 2005 by Ted O. Brooke.

4. 1917, 30 July: Girl is killed; man badly hurt.
   Miss Ruby Brook and Lonnie Adams hit by trolley car on trestle.
   While walking home across the upper trestle from North Charleston Saturday night about 10:30, Miss Ruby Brook and Lonnie Adams were struck by a Consolidated trolley car when within fifteen or twenty feet of the south embankment. Miss Brook was killed and the young man with her was probably fatally injured.
   Both of the young people were boarders with Mrs. Wallace at Station 14, near the Navy Yard. Mr. Adams came here about five weeks ago from Jacksonville and is employed in the Navy Yard as a shipbuilder. Miss Brook was employed at the clothing factory, coming here only two weeks ago from Newnan, Ga., where her parents live. They have been notified by J. Henry Stuhr, who has charge of the remains and Miss Brook's father arrived this morning.
   Two couples were on this trestle which is 800 feet long and is one of two crossing about 500 feet apart. The first two young people whom the car came upon found safety on one of the string pieces about four or five feet away which is used  to support the trolley poles and were passed without harm. About seventy feet beyond them inspector E.O. Dillashaw, who was acting as motorman, saw this second couple appear in front of him only about ten feet distant. How they failed to hear the warning whistle that was sounded when the first two were seen is hard to say. They may have heard and were trying to get to the embankment, which was only about fifteen feet away.
   Miss Brook was fatally injured about the chest, while Mr. Adams received serious injuries in the head. He sustained a broken ankle also. He probably has internal injuries. The body of Miss Brook was dragged some distance by the car. Mr. Adams was apparently knocked to one side. Both the dead girl and the badly injured man were brought to the city immediately after the accident and were met by the police ambulance. Miss Brook's remains were taken to the undertaker while Mr. Adams was rushed to the hospital. Miss Brook was about 19 years old. She is thought to have been instantly killed.
   The coroner's inquest will be held this afternoon at 4 o'clock in the undertaking parlors of J. Henry Stuhr.

5. 1917, July 29; Woman is killed by trolley car.
   Miss Ruby Brooks (sic), employee of clothing factory, struck at North Charleston; Her companion injured; Leon Adams, shipbuilder, is brought to Roper Hospital for treatment.
   Miss Ruby Brooks, of Newnan, Ga., employed in the clothing factory at the Navy Yard, was killed and Mr. Leon Adams, of Jacksonville, a shipbuilder at the Navy Yard, (was) injured when they were struck by a car of the Consolidated company on the upper trestle near North Charleston about 9:30 o'clock last night . Inspector Dillashaw was acting as motorman of the car, no. 137.
   The body of Miss Brooks was brought to the J. Henry Stuhr undertaking establishment and her parents notified by telegraph. Mr. Adams was hurried to the Roper Hospital, where he was given treatment by a surgeon. He was hurt about the head and legs. His condition was said early this morning to be satisfactory.
   Coroner John G. Mansfield went to the scene of the accident immediately after he was notified of the accident and began an investigation of the accident. He said that the inquest would probably be held tomorrow, if Mr. Adams is able to appear as a witness.
   It appears that Miss Brooks and Mr. Adams, both of whom boarded at station no. 14, of the Consolidated company, were sitting on the trestle and that inspector Dillashaw did not see them until the car was almost on them. He applied the air brakes with full power, but the car struck them with violent force.
   Mr. Adams was brought to Columbus and Meeting streets on Car no. 47, where Chief of Police Black took him by automobile to the Roper Hospital. The body of Miss Brooks was brought down to the power house on a special car and taken from there to the undertaking establishment by Chief Black.
   When Mr. Adams was taken in charge by the police he was not conscious, but before reaching the hospital he had regained consciousness. His head was at once shaved and surgeons went to work to treat him. He has three ugly gashes in the head. His Jacksonville home was at No. 14 East street. He had been working at the Navy Yard about six weeks. Miss Brooks had been here about three months.
   Everything was done to give Mr. Adams prompt surgical attention and no time was lost in getting him to town on Car no. 47. Chief Black made fast time in carrying him from Columbus and Meeting streets to the Roper Hospital. It was stated early this morning that he would recover, that no bones had been broken and that the wounds in the head were not serious.
   Miss Brooks' body was fearfully mangled by the car. Her chest appears to have been crushed by the heavy coach. Mr. J. Henry Stuhr said early this morning that he was awaiting advice from her family about the disposition of her body. It is most likely that the body will be shipped to Newnan and that the funeral services will take place there.

6. 1917, 3 August: Tragic Death of Miss Ruby Brook.
   Miss Ruby Brook, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.R. Brook, of this city, came to her death Saturday night in Charleston, S.C., under circumstances so tragic as to greatly shock her friends here. Several weeks ago she went to that city to accept a Government position. Saturday night she went out walking in company with a gentleman friend and another couple, and while crossing a trestle on a street car line she was struck by as fast-moving car and sustained injuries which caused her death shortly afterwards. Her escort was badly hurt also, but it is thought that he may recover. In response to a telegram bringing news of the accident her father left at once for Charleston, and was present at the coroner's inquest Monday, after which he accompanied his daughter's remains to Newnan. The funeral and interment took place at Liberty Church, near Sargent, Tuesday.
   Particulars of the accident, as related by witnesses at the inquest, are thus furnished by the Charleston Evening Post of Tuesday - 
   "A verdict of accidental death was rendered by the jury at the coroner's inquest into the death of Miss Ruby Brook, who was run over and killed by a North Charleston car on the upper trestle Saturday night. Solicitor Thomas Stoney was present at the inquest, held yesterday afternoon at J. Henry Stuhr's undertaking rooms. The other couple who were with Mr. Adams and Miss Brook crossing the trestle testified that no whistle was heard on the bridge, while Mr. Brignac in his statement said that he heard the crash and whistle simultaneously.
   "Miss Hammond testified that Mr. Adams and Miss Brook were about 150 or 200 feet away from them; that she called to them to get off the track, and, after turning their heads, they went on, apparently not understanding the warning, and the next instant the car ran over them. She could see them after the car had passed her and Mr. Brignac. Miss Hammond and Mr. Brignac had stepped to one of the slings used to support the trolley poles and the car passed them. She stated the car ran with sufficient speed to take her hat off her head with its draft."
   "The motorman of the car, G.R. Saxton, was sick and was sitting on the steps of the platform. The car was being operated by inspector Dillashaw. Conductor Canady had charge. All of these testified, as did some passengers. Inspector Dillashaw told of how he passed the first couple, his speed being about 8 or 10 miles an hour, and of keeping his eyes on them, when suddenly he turned to look ahead and saw not ten feet distant the second couple. He had applied his brakes when he first got on the trestle, and released them after passing the first two people. He said he must have been running at about 10 miles an hour when he saw the second couple. The motorman, who was sitting on the steps, jumped up and applied the emergency brakes, while the inspector cut off his current and reversed the car."
   "A passenger, Mr. Byrd, looking out a window of the car when it came to a stop and saw between the tracks the body of the young woman lying about 15 feet from the trestle on the embankment. At the rear end of the car was the body of the man, which seemingly had his feet caught in the cross ties. He felt the vibration of the car when the brakes were applied."
   "Mr. Adams, who was with Miss Brook when she was killed, is reported at Roper Hospital as being better and has recovered consciousness."
   "The father of Miss Brook was present at the inquest and will accompany the remains to Newnan, Ga."
   Card of Thanks:
   We wish to thank our friends for kindnesses lavished upon us in our sad bereavement, occasioned by the death of our dear daughter and sister. Mr. and Mrs. J.R. Brook and children.

Additional family information is that the "government position" she had was with the Red Cross, in training as a nurse during World War I. She was never married and had no issue. What a sad, sad event this must've been for her family in Newnan.

   Lieut. M'Rae and Private Brook die at Souther. Lieut. Warde and Private Rice only slightly hurt  - ships collide in mid-air over flying field and wing is torn from one plane  - both crafts badly wrecked - officers see accident.
   Lieut. John K. McRae and Private Robert A. Brook, of Souther Field, were killed at the field as a result of a collision of two planes in midair at about 11:45 o'clock today. Both were riding in the same ship, which fell like a plummet after the collision and were smashed to a mass of twisted iron, wood and silk. The other plane, driven by Lieut. Wilfred B. Warde, with Private Thomas W. Rice riding as passenger, came down partly out of control and was badly damaged. Neither Lieut. Warde nor Private Rice were badly hurt, the former receiving a cut on the right shoulder and the latter a cut on the lip. 
   The accident occurred at the east end of the flying field, a short distance to the south of the disposal plant. The two planes had left the ground together only a short time before. They were taking the two privates on the first rides they had ever experienced in airships, under the rule which gave permission for enlisted men to be taken aloft before transfer from the camp, which has been ordered for some time within the next few days. Just what happened is not yet known, although three officers, Lieut. Wolfe, Wyatt and McMullen, standing on the field near headquarters, saw the accident. 
   "The ships were flying between 500 and 1,000 feet high,"  said Lieut. Wyatt, who is also post adjutant, when they were seen to come together. From the position they were in, and the distance, it couldn't be ascertained whether they collided on the wings, or whether the tail of Lieut. Warde's ship struck the wing of Lieut. McRae's. At any rate, Lieut. McRae's plane started toward the earth, diving straight head down, with one wing, which had been torn partially off in the collision, dangling. The other plane started downward, too, but at an angle, and landed partially under control." 
   Bodies wrapped in debris.
   Several officers, including Lieut. Colonel Rader, commanding officer, and Major Schofield, executive officer, were at the scene of the accident immediately. The bodies of Lieut. McRae and Private Brook were found wrapped in the debris, both being dead when rescuers arrived. Lieut. Warde's plane was badly wrecked, but he and Private Rice were able to extricate themselves. Private Rice was taken to the post hospital, where he was shortly released. Lieut. Warde, while the other officers were busy trying to resuscitate the others, went to his room in the officers' quarters, where he was found some time afterward by his fellow officers, crying and bleeding from his shoulder wound. He was induced to go to the hospital for a thorough examination and to have his wound dressed. Because of his shocked condition he was not quizzed as to the cause of the accident.
   After examination of the wreckage, Major Schofield made the statement that the propeller of Lieut. Warde's plane appeared to indicate that it had hit some other object before striking the ground.
   Accident Deplored.
   The accident was greatly deplored by Souther Field officers and men, but was taken as an event that might happen any day in any flying field and routine went on as usual after the victims had been cared for. However the big flag floating over headquarters was immediately lowered to half mast in respect to the dead.
   Lieut. MacRae was one of the most popular officers that had ever been stationed at this post, and had a large circle of friends in the city where he was well known. His home was at Rosalie, Wash., but he had been here many months, coming here in 1918 as a cadet and being commissioned and given his R.M.A. here. His commission was dated November 10, 1918. Until last week he had been commander of the flying field detachment., but a couple of days ago had been assigned to the post of assistant engineer.
   Lieut. MacRae was one of the star performers in the aerial circus given at Souther Field in July. Here is what the official program said of him by way of introducing him to the public:
   As Conrade saw him ....
   "If you were to live at Souther Field, and desire to sleep late in the morning it would be well to arrange for a room far removed from the quarters of this and active Lieut. He is commanding officer of the flying school detachment. He believes in military drill for recruits and has trained his alarm clock to call him before daylight each week day so he can go out on the drill ground and instruct his soldiers how to salute, and to follow each other through the intricate mazes of "squad right."
   "In civil life Mr. MacRae was a native of the state of Washington. He was student at Washington State College. He took an engineering course there. We do not know along what line of engineering, he specialized, but having observed him try for ten minutes to start a motor cycle, without success, we believe he must have been a stationary engineer."
   "Among his intimate associates he is known as the only sheep herder Lieutenant in captivity. This may be a libel on a good flyer; there is no evidence to prove that he has ever herded sheep."
   "He has taken part in many cross country flights with particular success. On those occasions where the trip extended over several days Lieut. MacRae has achieved marked success in many towns. As a dancer he is without a peer. When he steps out on the glazed surface of a ballroom floor and has a fair partner of equal skill to fit the curve of his strong arm  - well the audience gazes in admiration at their rythmic moving in unison and then remark that it is easy to proclaim the logical successor of Vernon Castle.
   "In addition to his other duties at Souther Field, Lieut. MacRae is a stunt flyer of ability. He spends a large portion of his spare time in the air trying new methods of (airfall?) movements. He will fly in the formations at this circus.
   "Recently Lieut. MacRae has become the owner of a Colt automatic revolver and is a candidate for pinball championship of Souther Field and adjoining parts. We have not seen him practice but he reports ability to hit a hangar at thirty paces."
   Private Brook, who was killed, enlisted in the air service on July 1 of this year, from Newnan. Private Rice's home is at Lavonia.

   Newnan Boy Meets Tragic Death in Mid-air accident.
   Americus, Ga., Aug. 28 - Lieut. John W. MacRae and Private Robert A. Brook were instantly killed at Souther Field shortly before noon today, when the airplane in which they were taking a practice spin collided with another ship piloted by Lieut. Wilfred B. Warde at an altitude of between 500 and 1,000 feet.
   Brook, who was a resident of Newnan, enlisted in the air service on July 1, and was taking his first ride in an airplane when killed. Lieut. Ware and Thos. W. Price, a private riding with him as passenger, escaped serious injury, though their plane was badly damaged.
   The accident occurred at the east end of the flying field. The two planes had left the ground together only a short time before. The air pilots were taking the two privates on the first rides they had ever experienced in an airship, under the rule which gave permission for enlisted men to be taken aloft before transfer from the camp, which has been ordered for some time within the next few days.
   Just what happened is not yet known, although three officers, Lieuts. Wolfe, Wyatt and McMillan, saw the accident.
   "The planes were flying between 500 and 1,000 feet high," said Lieut. Wyatt, "when they were seen to come together. From the position they were in and the distance it could not be ascertained whether they collided on the wings, or whether the tail of Lieut. Ware's ship struck the wing oif Lieut. MacRae's. At any rate, Lieut. MacRae's plane started toward the earth, diving straight head down, with one wing, which had been torn practically off in the collision, dangling. The other plane started downward, too, but at an angle, and landed partially under control."

   Frail woman can keep a stout heart and a strong faith and accomplish as much as a man.
   Here is a story of a woman bereft when her seventh child was a tot.
   She was 22 years old and was widowed with seven children. All seven had to be reared and educated without the husband's aid. All seven have been reared and educated and the mother is triumphantly carrying on. The only aid she received was from the children themselves. They have grown up without having to acknowledge that fate handicapped them. And they feel that they are stronger and better able to cope with the world because of their battles. Each knows the importance of the true philosophy of life, and they [know] how it must be conserved.
   Over at Carrollton,in the extreme western part of Georgia, is a 50-room hotel called Crepe Myrtle. It is popular, because it is neat and clean, and because it is managed by a woman who knows how to look after it, how to prepare the food, what dietetics mean, and how to provide for the comfort of the guests.
   Her name is Ida Upshaw Todd. She was left an orphan before she can remember, and her grandmother reared her. Her father was R.V. Upshaw, and he lived near Carrollton. Her mother was Ida Routen. The family had been left poor by the reverses of the Civil War, but the orphan girl was reared to believe that a woman had better starve than work for a living. It was the old idea inculcated in all aristocratic circles. Poverty would not overcome it. Only time would cure the disease -  time and circumstances.
   SEVEN LITTLE ONES.
   The time came for Mrs. Todd. At 14 she married. In a little while children began to come, and they continued to come with natural regularity until there were seven. Then Mrs. Todd had to face life alone, at 22, alone in bread winning, and in rearing the children. One son was in the group. The others were girls.
   These were early taught the responsibilities of life, and they learned to work. Their mother taught them by example, and they had too much good blood in them to stand by and see the mother do the work unaided. They vied with each other in the effort to lift her load.
   The son Ray has graduated from Oglethorpe university. He helped to pay his college expenses by working in the printing office of the school. This meant night work, and work when other students were playing. It was play for Ray to do anything to help his mother. He did not need "recreation." His work gave him joy, and that is better than most recreation.
   He learned that any noble soul can find joy in doing duty. Play delights only those who can get a vacation from responsibility, who can run away from the workaday world and its requirements. Ray could not run away while his mother struggled at home. Since his graduation he has developed an ambition to be a newspaper man, so he has a job with the Cedartown Standard; and needless to say, he is not afraid to work at anything his hands can find to do. That's the way he was "raised."
   FIRST DAUGHTER MARRIED.
   The eldest daughter was Gladys. As soon as she finished high school she took the train for a business college, and learned to do office work. Then she married; and her mother, in speaking of it, says: "Thank God, she is happily married; and has a husband who strives to be worthy of her."
   Then came Kathryn, the third child. She finished high school and went immediately to business college. She has a very satisfactory position in Atlanta, says her mother., 
   The next three girls finished high school, attended West Georgia college at Carrollton, each specializing in something out of which she can take care of herself. Gwendolyn studied cookery and food chemistry at the University of Georgia, and she uses this to good advantage in her mother's hotel.
   Fay, the youngest, has one more year at high school.
   Each of the three youngest girls takes over special duties at the hotel. One keeps books and looks after all details involving money. To her every penny must be accounted for.
   STRUGGLES AGAINST THIEVES.
   Another manages the maids and counts to see what thieves came in as guests. Bath mats are stolen by a certain type of guest, towels are stolen by another class, and another type has sticky fingers when he touches an ash tray. Some will even steal the bedspreads. The Todds have learned almost how to tell which kind of person will steal which kind of property. Hotel people know when anything is stolen,  and they can tell who stole it, because the number of the room from which it is missing is written in the register or on the card opposite the name.But why put a person in jail for stealing a dollar's worth of something? That's just one of the disagreeable things about being a widow and having to be popular with the public.
   "If I try to change human nature and make people different," says Mrs. Todd, "I will make myself miserable and have a lot of trouble for nothing , so I have to figure on thefts. I grieve when I see the thief. I know it is a pity, and that the person who steals loses more than the person from whom the thing is stolen. One is losing character. The owner of the stolen property loses only something that is cheap. Character is not cheap. The thief loses character. He loses character though he may have been a thief a long time. Every time he steals he goes down a little deeper into the mire."
   BEASTLY MEN.
   Then Mrts. Todd talks of the "beasts in men's clothing," those men who mistake kindness for weakness; and want to see what insults a woman can stand. "But a hotel woman soon learns how to freeze the blood in the veins of such brutes," says Mrs. Todd. "Even my little girls soon learned how to fend against such people. You know the Latin fable that says, 'Nothing is so small but that it can protect itself.' God gave woman the power to put man in his place and keep him there. A look of the eye is sufficient against all but the insane."
   Then there are the "Mr. and Mrs.." frauds. Those couples who come in wearing a guilty or else a bravado, shameless look.
   PLENTY OF HARD WORK.
   Speaking of the hard work in the business, Mrs. Todd tells of a season when she had nineteen highway engineers for whom she had to serve breakfast at 4 o'clock in the morning. This necessitated getting up before 3, but it meant about five hundred dollars a month added to income, and that was too important to let pass. She could not hire a servant for love or money, as she says; because that was too much like real work. She did the job by herself for three months.
   Then her mind reverted to another kind of thief that all hotel people know about. He is the one who beats his board bill by slipping out in the night or by some slick ruse. And then the fellow who gets a check cashed, by telling a lie about it. Her list of losses from these two classes of crooks is a big one, much larger than she would like for it to be.
   "Yes," continues Mrs. Todd, "we have a chance to see the evil side of life, and we have our problems, and a woman in my position sometimes wishes she had never heard of a hotel; but our experiences are not all bad, not at all. We meet some of the loveliest of people. Most of them are lovely, kind and considerate. They appreciate our position, and try to aid us all they can. They appreciate our efforts to make them comfortable and happy; and it is a joy to have them around.When we are dealing with the high types of people we forget all about the other kind; we remember only the good."
   STARTED IN A SMALL WAY. 
   No, she did not start out with a big hotel. Her first effort was with a small rooming house. She first tried to do designing, and she learned to make fine things to wear and she even did plain sewing. She was having to get away from the aristocratic notions of the old South. She had seven children to feed and to educate. The road looked long and and its hills seemed awfully steep.
   She learned Hood's Song of the Shirt, and she did not hesitate to "stitch, stitch, stitch." Every stitch meant something. It could hardly be estimated what a  stitch was worth in money, but she knew enough stitches meant the wherewith to buy bread. But the more she stitched, the bigger grew the children and the more things they needed. She found her task impossible. She couldn't make enough if she continued to depend upon her ability to wield the needle.
   What else could she do? She couldn't think of a thing. Married at 15, and widowed with seven children at little beyond 22 years old. She had no preparation that would enable her to augment her income. She was whipped. No, there was one more thing she could do: she could pray. And pray she did. She had reached the place that she could not do without prayer. When man reaches the bottom of extremity, when he gets all he can stand of suffering and hardship, when he reaches the blind wall of the journey, and can see no hope except in death, then he instinctively turns to God. He may not have seen the need of Him before, thinks Mrs. Todd, but when everything else gives out, then God takes hold. In answer to her prayer eventually came the light. It didn't come at first. She had to prove her faith. And she did ; she didn't cry out against God, but by trusting Him, and by knowing that He would save all who deserve to be saved, she says she reached that point where she wanted Him to wipe off the slate and start a new account  with her. She would give Him a squarer deal next time.
   Then came the idea of a rooming house. She found a place with ten bedrooms, but to get it she would need to go in debt a thousand dollars. What a staggering sum! She had never seen a thousand dollars up to that time. But she had the urge to go ahead and better her condition. She arranged with enough teachers  to board with her if she would fix up the place and she took the chance. Then she found that she could attract some regular diners besides the teachers, and she began to arrange for special dinner parties. She did all of the work herself, with the help of an aged Negro woman.Three years of the most laborious work brought her such results that she was encouraged to lease a larger place. The children's needs had still increased, and they were suffering for still more money. The next venture was in a place with 16 rooms. Another big indebtedness had to be assumed to work out this plan. It didn't occur to her that she was wonderfully blessed to be able to command so much credit. All she could think about was the terrible job she was undertaking to provide for her family and to pay off a big debt at the same time.
   She was accumulating fine equipment, and she was being swept right along toward the hotel business, though she had not thought of it that way.
   For five years she struggled with this sixteen-room proposition; and she made a go of it. She then induced her lessor to convert the property into the present hotel, with its fifty rooms. That's Crepe Myrtle.
   She was told that she could not last a year. This challenged her fighting spirit. She determined to give the best hotel service possible under the circumstances, and she meant to make every guest a walking advertisement fir the place.
   She couldn't spare the money to advertise a s she wished to do, but she knew the importance of advertising, so among the other things she did, was the creating and circulating  of the following card:

      To be our guest is quite a treat,
      We specilize in good things to eat -
      Nice juicy steaks and chicken meat;
      Delicious pies and wonderful cake,
      The kind your mother used to make.

   If you ask Mrs. Todd  whether or not she has made a success she will tell you conscientiously:
   "I've successfully reared seven children, and they have not suffered for anything; nor have they given me cause to worry about their future."
   When she says it you will realize that no greater work can a parent do.
   Ask her if she felt sorry for herself in the face of her appalling situation,  she will tell you: "No, my entire time and thought have been given to others. I have had no time to ask whether or not I was happy. I could be happy only through the happiness of those for whom I was living and working. I made them happy, and that's how I got my own happiness,"

   From our Correspondents. Luthersville. Our little burgh was enlivened yesterday by the marriage of one of our first (sic) young men to one of Grantville's fairest daughters, at the residence of the bride's father. The affair has been the leading society theme for quite a while, and its culmination is hailed with pleasure by the many friends of both.

Upshaw, of Luthersville, and Miss Callie Hopson, of Grantville, man and wife. Immediately after the ceremony the bride and groom, accompanied by a few of the attendants, returned to Luthersville, where they partook of an elegant supper, at the home of the groom's grandfather. We wish them joy, peace and prosperity.

   Whereas, our Heavenly Father, in His wise providence, has removed from our midst our dear sister and co-worker for four years. Therefore, be it - Resolved, That we, as a society, recognize her worth as a true woman, and faithful to every trust.  She was a noble Christian wife and a fond and loving mother. The Woman’s Foreign Missionary Society is made to mourn the loss of a sister who lived and communed with Christ. When health permitted she was always in her place, to learn more about the work; - when absent, we knew her heart was going out in prayer for it. She lived in meek submission to the Master’s teaching, and sweetly illustrated in her walk and conversation the glorious attributes of a Christian character. As a friend she was true and steadfast, always ready to do a kind deed or speak a cheerful word; liberal and charitable in her views, a friend and benefactor in a quiet way to those whose needs she knew.
      Resolved, That the condolence and sympathy of the Women’s Foreign Missionary Society, of Newnan, Ga., be extended to the bereaved husband and children, with the feeling and assurance that they weep not as those without hope.
      Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family; also, to the Herald and Advertiser for publication, and that they be recorded on our minutes. Mrs. J.F. Lovejoy, Mrs. M.B. Mooney, Mrs. F.W. Crane.

11. 1953, 24 September: In Memory of Mrs. J.W. Reeves.
   With Saddened hearts we pause to pay tribute to the memory of Mrs. Viola Upshaw Reeves, who departed this life May 1, at the age of 80 years. She was married to Mr. John W. Reeves in March 1889. To this union was born 10 children, two sons having preceded her in death a number of years ago, and her companion, J.W. Reeves, in June 1934.
   Surviving are six sons and two daughters. The sons are Tom, Jack, Harvey, Cliff, Clyde, and Ed. The daughters are Mrs. W.A. Scales and Mrs. Willard Holland. Besides her children and other relatives, she had a great many friends who were grieved at her passing, because of her friendly personality and pleasing disposition.
   Shady Grove Church has lost its oldest member. Mrs. Reeves brought her letter here from Cross Plains Baptist Church about the year 1889. The community has lost one of its best and most worthy citizens. She loved the Lord and her church and was faithful to attend each service as long as health and strength permitted. She was a true and faithful friend and neighbor, a kind and loving mother. She is greatly missed by all who knew and loved her, always ready and willing to help others. 
   We mingle with the tears of the loved ones our tears of sympathy, praying God's blessings upon each of them and asking Him to always give us Grace to be submissive to His will. To the children we will just say from experience,
      You miss her voice and friendly smile, 
         You see her vacant chair,
      But look to that celestial home
         For mother's resting there.
      You miss so much her presence,
         And the touch of Mother's hand,
         But you can meet with her again
         And then we'll understand.
      Her work on earth is finished;
         She has laid life's burden down,
      To fill her place in that home above
         And wear a shining crown.
      God grant that we may be prepared
         When life on earth is o'er,
      That we shall meet our Mothers there
         On that celestial shore.
   Sister Reeves passed away on Friday, May 1st. Funeral services were conducted Sunday, May 3rd, from Shady Grove Church by the Rev. E.B. Paris and the pastor, Rev. R.W. Johnson, after which her body was laid to rest in the church cemetery, there to await the morning of resurrection. Therefore, be it resolved first, that we reverently bow in humble submission to the will of our Heavenly Father; second, that we extend to the bereaved children, grandchildren and loved ones our deepest sympathy in their hour of grief, and commend them to the care of our Heavenly Father, who is too wise to make a mistake and too loving and kind to be untrue.
   (Signed) Mrs. Lois Morrow, Mrs. R.W. Johnson, B.S. Lassetter, Committee.

   J. F. Upshaw Dead.
   Mr. J. F. Upshaw, of Dallas, Tex., died at his home in that city last Friday afternoon, news of which was received here Saturday through a telegram to Mrs. H. M. Norris of this city, a sister of the deceased. Mr. Upshaw was with his sister, Mrs. Norris, several weeks this spring, and while here greatly improved in health, and it was thought by himself and friends that he had about regained his health, whereupon he returned to the far away state of Texas and resumed his duties as a businessman. He was a traveling salesman and stood well in his chosen profession. He was a Mason and Knights of Pythias, and was at one time an officer in Shelby Lodge No. 50 K. of P., being the first Master of Arms in this Lodge. He was born and reared at Dadeville, Ala., and leaves quite a number of relatives in this state and some in Texas, having a brother, L.L. Upshaw, at Sherman, Tex., and two sisters, Mrs. S. Parkman, of Columbus, Ga., and Mrs. A.D. Turner, of Jackson's Gap, Ala.,  and was also the uncle of the editor of this paper. 
   Many friends and relatives in old Alabama are sad to hear of the death of this man, and the Advocate hopes that all sorrowing relatives will feel and realize that it is best in all respects, or it would not have been so.
   He leaves a wife and three children to mourn his death.

COMMENTS:

1. Andrew ("Andy") Upshaw, who furnished this information in May 1999, observes that his birthdate of 7 Nov 1916 was about nine months after Pancho Villa invaded Columbus, New Mexico. Andy further mentions that "I still do not know where he died but he is mentioned in the obituary of William A. Upshaw as a survivor living in Seattle at that time (about 1963). Middleton was called "Woodrow" in the obituary and that could be his middle name because he was always referred to as "Uncle Woody", when I was a child."

DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

1. (Biographies) Herman L. Upshaw.
   Herman L. Upshaw was born in Alexander City, Alabama, and received his early education in the schools of Tallapoosa County, graduating from State Normal school at Troy with the degree of B. Ph. He was also a student at Columbia University, N.Y.;Chicago University and Peabody University at Nashville.
   He was elected a first assistant in the public schools at Midway, Alabama, and in 1908 was elected superintendent of the city schools at Eufaula, which position he held for twelve years, resigning to accept a position with the McMillan Publishing Company, his territory being Alabama and Tennessee.
     In 1929 he, jointly with Mr. Carl Strang of the same company, established the Eufaula Daily Tribune, afterwards purchasing from T.G. Wilkinson the Daily Citizen which they merged into the present Daily Tribune, which he is now sole owner and publisher of. 
   Mr. Upshaw is also Postmaster at Eufaula, having been appointed by President Roosevelt soon after his first inauguration. He is a man of letters, a scholar and a writer whose facile pen carries with it's every tracing, some forceful thought that he weaves into articles carried on his editorial page that deal with the problems, for the betterment of his paper.
   As a citizen he is always first to take part in all progressive movements, and is the leading philanthropist of the community,  generously giving financial help wherever needed.
   He is a Rotarian, member of the Commercial Club, a deacon of the First Baptist Church and one of it's strongest forces.
   He is the citizen who is always ready to promote the progress of the community.
   He does not engage actively in politics, but is a Democrat of the type whose influence has weight.
   He married Fanny Shorter, daughter of Eli S. and Wylena Lamar Shorter. Their only child is a charming daughter, now at college in New York.

NOTES:

1. (per Mary Kekec, 248 Church St., Bonne Terre, MO, 63628 (12 Feb 1982):
      "My father has been dead about 25 years now. His mother and father were divorced and he was shifted around from one to another but mostly raised by his grandmother Mary Thomas who was married to E. M. Humphrey by then. I'm not sure Mary Thomas was ever married to Jefferson Upshaw. I can't find marriage record. However, I remember my father told us that his grandfather, Jefferson Upshaw, would visit them when he was a boy living with his mother and father in Dueweg, Missouri. Dueweg is a small mining town in Jasper Co., Missouri. He told us his grandfather was part Cherokee Indian and that he never stayed in the house; he would build a campfire, cook, eat and sleep outside. My mother says they got word of Jefferson's death shortly after she married my father in 1927. She also thought Jefferson Upshaw might have been a gambler and moved around a lot." 
      Mrs. Kekec attached a Family Group sheet showing the following: Jefferson Upshaw, no birth or marriage date or place, died about 1927 in Shawnee, Pottawatomie Co., OK; his wife was Mary A. Thomas, born 4 March 1875 in Bell Fonte, Boone Co., Arkansas; died 3 May 1952 in Galena, Cherokee Co., Kansas; their child was Maude Eva Upshaw, born 13 October 1889 in Taney Co., Missouri, who was married in 1905 Miller Co., Missouri and died 25 August 1945 in Phoenix, Arizona; she was married to Conrad Wilhelm Kieslich, born 29 October 1866 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, died 9 March 1926 in Phoenix, Arizona.
      (Note: No person named "Maude Eva', "Maude", "Eva", etc, Upshaw, born about 1889 is found in the 1900 census; furthermore, no such person was listed with this family in the 1900 census and, in fact, Mollie Upshaw reported as being the mother of "0 children." The existence of any such person is doubtful, although the Miller Co., Missouri marriage records of 1905 and the Arizona death certificates of 1945 should be checked).

William Jefferson "Jeff" Upshaw and Mary A. "Mollie" Thomas were married circa 1896. They were divorced on 18 Dec 1916 in Pottawatomie Co, Oklahoma. Mary A. "Mollie" Thomas was born on 4 Mar 1875 in Missouri. She appeared in the census in 1900 in Polk Co, Arkansas. She appeared in the census in 1910 in Pottawatomie Co, Oklahoma.

18. 1947, 11 Jan (circa): Newspaper item (death notice): Mrs. W. S. Stambaugh died 1-11-1947.
   "Linnie" Stambaugh.
   Another link with Abilene's past was broken when Mrs. W. S. Stambaugh, her friends called her "Linny", was laid to rest Tuesday afternoon. She was a figure in the glamorous days of the city's social heyday - back in the '80s and early '90s. Those were the days of high silk hats, tails, flowing gowns designed by city stylists, of cotillions at the Union Pacific dining room with orchestras from Topeka or Kansas City, of costly dance favors, of home talent shows in which the social leaders took part, of whist clubs rivaling in their membership.
   The social set included the W. S. Stambaughs, the George Hurds, the J. B. Cases, the Herbert and Charles Hodges, the Judge Mahans, the w. G. Cowles, the Upshaws, the Dr. Hazletts, the Thomas Emmett Deweys - and many others. The ambitious town was aping the activities of a big city and did it with verve and and exuberance. In those days there were no movies, no radio, no motor cars, no public library, no Rotary, no Lions, no Jaycees, few telephones. The little city was thrown upon its own resources, perhaps partly play-acting, but actually with a desire to make life happier - and did.
   Among the most popular of them all was Linnie Stambaugh. She was the wife of the leading attorney, they had built the then imposing house on West Third which was a center of social doings. In addition to her attractiveness, her vivacity and her interest in everybody she was gifted with a voice that charmed many an audience. She sang because she loved to sing and was in demand on every possible occasion - both here and in surrounding towns. Her love of music stayed with her all her years. Two years ago, when just past four score, she sang in the Episcopal church - and the notes were as clear and as moving as of yore. 
   Few are left who remember when Mrs. Stambaugh was in her youth and early maturity, who recall her many activities and her willingness to help. She lived her later years gracefully, with the same cheeriness that marker her early history. 
   She was a gracious woman. In all her life she never had other than kind words and kind acts for others. She accepted what the fates gave to her with thankfulness and without complaining and sank to rest with a smile on her lips.

6. Undocumented information on www.findagrave, Oct 2016, by Judy Mayfield (includes photograph of Artela Upshaw):
   Artela "Tela" Upshaw Metz: Tela's daughter Wilma would recount how wonderful her mom's cooking was. Tela never used a recipe. In desperation Wilma had Tela make a few of her favorites and would stop her mother and measure how much a handful or dash was in order to create a recipe to work from. 
   Tela's Missouri home had dirt floors and a tree stump in the middle which was used as a table. Wilma said that Tela moved from Marshfield, MO, to Oxford, KS, in a covered wagon, when Tela was around 10 years old, joining an older brother who had already moved there. Wilma grew up with stories about how hard farming was back in Missouri. In Missouri you "pick up a stone and put a seed under it, pick up a stone and put a seed under it." Her family never looked back. 
   Wilma said they were poor but they did not know it. She remembered Tela cutting up Tela's mother's dresses for school clothes for Wilma and crying.

2. 1940, 14 Nov: Upshaw, Murray Jr.; the County News, 14 Nov 1940:
      Little Boy’s Body Found Early Tuesday. thousands of People seek in vain over week end as baby perishes near Bartow County home. From the Atlanta Journal.
      Cartersville, Ga. Nov. 12 - The body of 2-year-old Murray Upshaw, Jr., missing since Friday, was found at 10:15 a.m.  Tuesday in the woods about a mile and a half back of the home of his parents, near Cartersville, the State Highway Patrol announced. 
      The child was dead, and was found lying face down, early reports said. The body was not disturbed. The Bartow county coroner was summoned at once to make an examination.
      Reports said the child’s body was discovered by Joel Parker, a young man of near Cartersville, a member of a party of a dozen men who went out early Tuesday on “a hunch search” of the wooded territory, which has been combed for days by hundreds of searchers.
      The grief-shocked parents were informed of their child’s fate shortly after the discovery was made. They expressed their deep thanks to their friends for support during their trying days, as to the searchers and various agencies which aided in the gigantic child hunt.
      Found on Mountain.
      The body was found on Sugar Hill Mountain, near where the child had often played, but the family said he had never wandered so far before.
      Searchers said leaves and pine straw near the body indicated that the child’s little dog, Nickie, had bedded down, and kept his master company for at least a part of the time since Murray disappeared last Friday and the pet dog was discovered Monday morning.
      Other members of the searching party that found the body included Horace McMichan and Ed Black. Both are State Highway Department workers, as was Joel Parker.
      Died of Exposure.
      They said that the child had apparently died of exposure, since they could see no bruises or other injuries on his body.
      Sheriff George Gaddis and coroner G.W. Hendricks made speedy arrangements for an inquest, which was expected to be held in Cartersville during the day. 
      The child’s father, a widely known and prosperous Bartow county farmer, appeared deeply shocked by the news. The mother, the former Betty Raines, was nervous, but said, “At least I am glad to know what happened.”
      Police Sent to Scene.
      Immediately after the discovery of the body was reported, a contingent of state troopers were rushed to the scene to guard the body until the coroner arrived. The Upshaw family lives about 13 miles north of Cartersville, and Mr. Upshaw is well known in Calhoun.     
      Funeral services for the child were held Wednesday afternoon.

   Upshaw, Murray Jr.; the Calhoun Times, 14 Nov 1940:
      Upshaw Child’s Body Found on Mountain.
         The body of Murray Upshaw, Jr., 2-year-old Bartow county child for whom a frantic search had been in progress since his disappearance from the home of his parents at Rydal last Friday afternoon, was found in an almost inaccessible spot on Pine Log Mountain Tuesday a few hours after his pet dog, who disappeared with the child, returned home.
         A coroner’s jury said the child had died from exposure, and authorities at Emory University hospital in Atlanta agreed with these findings after an autopsy on the body.
         Hundreds of people joined in the day-and-night search for the child. The Upshaw family have hosts of friends in Gordon county who are deeply grieved by the tragedy.
         Mr. and Mrs. John Bowles were in Rydal during the week-end with Mr. and Mrs. Murray Upshaw. Mr. and Mrs. Upshaw have a host of friends here who deeply sympathize with them in the tragic death of their little son, Murray, Jr.
         The following persons from Calhoun attended the funeral Wednesday, of little Murray Upshaw, Jr., of near Cartersville: Mr. and Mrs. J.C. Massey, Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Long, Misses Jeanette and Boots Turner, Miss Sue Shellhorse, Miss Frances Henson and Mr. L.D. Neal.

3. 1940, 14 Nov: Upshaw Baby's Body Found in Woods Near Home.
   Child apparently Died of Exposure During Four Days it was Missing.
   Cartersville, Ga. Nov. 13 - The body of Murray Upshaw, Jr., two year old child missing since Friday was found in a woods near his north Georgia mining county home today. Joel Parker, Bartow county resident in a volunteer searching party found the baby but did not disturb the body  after ascertaining he was dead. He called the officers to the scene, about a mile and a half from the Upshaw home.
   The child's father, Murray Upshaw, appeared greatly upset by the news while the mother, also nervous, said "at least I am glad to know what happened."
   Searchers said leaves and twigs around the body appeared matted down possibly indicating that the dog, Mickey, had bedded beside the body for a while. They said no cuts or bruises were apparent and expressed the belief the child died of exposure.
   Parker came upon the body on the mountainside opposite  from the Upshaw home. The family said the child had played on the mountain before but never wandered so far away.  
   "I didn't look at him closely," Parker said. He was lying face down under a pine tree.'
   Sheriff G.W. Gaddis and Bartow county coroner, G.W. Hendricks arranged an inquest.
   Meanwhile officials had no information on the cause of death.
   Coroner Hendrix (sic) expressed his personal conviction that the baby died of long exposure to the cold and dampness. He said the child's parents shared this view.
   There were slight scratches on the child's arm and legs and his nose was mashed in. Searchers said the dog apparently had scratched around the face when the child stumbled and fell against a rock. Hair on the back of his sweater indicated the dog had lain on the child which had been missing since Friday. An inquest was planned for Tuesday.

COMMENTS:

1. Although Dorothy Patterson (above) states that both William & Bertha (Moore) Upshaw are buried at Pine Log Methodist and have markers there, I have found no record of their markers in any of the three transcription versions I've checked for that cemetery.

William Thomas Upshaw and Bertha Beatrice Moore had the following children:

	3238	i.	Albert Edwin Upshaw was born on 21 Aug 1904 in Bartow Co, Georgia. He died on 14 Oct 1905 at the age of 1 in Bartow Co, Georgia. He was buried at Pine Log Methodist ch. cemetery in White, Bartow Co, Georgia.
