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.

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.

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.

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.

2. NOTE:  I have a record compiled by Mrs. Preston C. Upshaw on 27 Feb 1971, for this family, showing the only child to be a "George Upshaw" who married a "Sallie Upshaw", who was the "dau. of Benjamin Adkins Upshaw & Susie (Garrett) Upshaw". 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.

   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.

   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.

Harrison Filmore Upshaw and Elizabeth Jane "Lizzie" Francis were married on 11 Nov 1883 in Princeton, Rockdale Co, Georgia. Elizabeth Jane "Lizzie" Francis, daughter of Jonathan Francis and Martha MacAllen, was born on 16 Jan 1863 in Princeton, Walton Co, Georgia. She lived in Walton Co, Georgia from 1884 to 1905. She appeared in the census in 1900 in Monroe Co, Georgia. Lizzie appeared in the census in 1910 in Fulton Co, Georgia. She appeared in the census in 1920 in DeKalb Co, Georgia. She appeared in the census in 1930 in DeKalb Co, Georgia. Lizzie appeared in the census in 1940 in DeKalb Co, Georgia. She died on 13 Mar 1949 at the age of 86 in Asheville, North Carolina. She was buried at Sardis Church cemetery in Walton Co, Georgia.

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.

He died in an hour after the operation was performed.

The building was erected at the time that William D. Upshaw was financial secretary of the institution and after he refused renumeration for his efforts toward the successful raising of the subscription for the dormitory it was suggested by the trustees that it be called after him. He refused and suggested that his mother's name be remembered that way.
   The remains of Mrs. Upshaw will be taken Friday afternoon to Douglasville, where the funeral and interment will take place Sunday.
   Surviving her are three sons, W.D. Upshaw, H.M. Upshaw and Hon. L.C. Upshaw, member of the legislature from Douglas county; a daughter, Mrs. G.B.

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.

   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.

   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".

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.

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)

   Mrs. Ben F. Perry received the sad intelligence of the death of her father, John R. Upshaw, at his home near Talladega Spring, Ala., on Monday last. Mr. Upshaw was about 69 years of age and had been in feeble health for some time, but he had looked forward to the re-union of the Confederate soldiers in Atlanta next July with anticipations of delight in again meeting many of his old comrades and in visiting his many friends and relatives in Georgia at that time, but he was called to the re-union beyond the grave before that pleasure had been given him. He was a member of the Primitive Baptist church and one of the best men of his church and state. He leaves a wife and three children, Mrs. Shelby W. Nelson of Columbiana, Ala., Atkins W. Upshaw of Talladega, Ala., and Mrs. Ben F. Perry of Canton, Ga. He was an uncle of "Earnest Willie" Upshaw and had many other relatives in this state.

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?

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.

   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 Dead.
   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.

Joseph Thomas Upshaw [CSA] and Mary S. Phillips were married circa 1866 in Heard?  Co., Georgia. Mary S. Phillips was born on 19 Mar 1846 in Carroll? Co, Georgia.

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, 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.

16. 1886, 25 June: N. W. (sic) Upshaw brought in the baby still and stiller this morning from Heard county. The still is on exhibition and is a curiosity. It is made by taking the can from a still and putting top down and putting the half of a 5 gallon keg to it. The worm and everything is complete. We suppose that it would support home consumption very nicely. Upshaw and Boone are pushing them around lively. (Source: The Coweta Advertiser, issue of 25 June 1886, page 5, col. 1). 

17. 1886, 25 June: Deputy United States Marshals and Collectors N.H. Upshaw and Daniel Book captured a still near Franklin in Heard county, Thursday and destroyed 200 gallons of beer.

   Mr. N.H. Upshaw, who got his face badly powder-burned in Newnan a few days since by the accidental discharge if his pistol, is doing very well. The doctor thinks he will save both of his eyes. (Source: The Coweta Advertiser, issue of 12 November 1886, Vol. IV, No. 42, page 4, column 4).

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] -
   Nathan Upshaw, the man that is afflicted with smallpox, in Lutherville (sic), is in a precarious condition. It is thought that he will die before morning. 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.

1.  Info from Mr. Eddie L. Herring, Rt. 3, Box 138A, Tuscumbia, AL 35674
(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.

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.

8. 1888, 24 Aug: newspaper obituary: Obituary.
   Died on Saturday morning, July 28th, 1888, at her home near Hickory Level, Mrs. Martha M. Upshaw, after an illness of more than two years, with that great denizen of the human race, consumption.
   Her maiden name was Smith and she was born January 22nd (sic) 1844. She professed a hope in Christ in the fall of 1865, while standing at the loom thinking of her condition. God spoke peace to her troubled soul. She had joined the Methodist church a few months previous to this time. She joined the Primitive Baptist church in the fall of 1878, was baptized by Elder Enoch Phillips. She was married in the fall of 1866 to J. R. Upshaw and lived a devoted Christian until her Death. 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.

   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.

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. Bailey, of Portland, Ore.; and Miss Ludie Upshaw, of Atlanta; four sons, W.D. Upshaw, of Phoenix, Ala.; E.M. Upshaw, of Los Angeles, Cal.; E.N. Upshaw, of Jacksonville, Fla.; and J.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.

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.

Narcissa Ann Upshaw and William L. Loomis were married on 4 May 1843 in Peoria, Peoria Co, Illinois. William L. Loomis, son of James Loomis and Mary McKenney, was born on 13 May 1821 in Milford, Ohio. He appeared in the census in 1850 in Peoria Co, Illinois. He appeared in the census in 1860 in Peoria Co, Illinois. William appeared in the census in 1870 in McLean Co, Illinois. He appeared in the census in 1880 in McPherson Co, Kansas. He died in Kansas?.

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.

2. F.M. Upshaw, dealer in general household furniture. He opened the trade in the spring of 1878; carries a stock of about $5,000. Sales equal about $16,000 per annum. He located in Dickinson County in June, 1867, when he engaged in farming until beginning business. He was born in Peoria, Ill., Oct. 20, 1830, lived in Peoria and native state about thirty years and married, in 1851, to Miss Julia H. Reed of the latter city. They have five children - Virginia H., William L., Melinda, Ida and George S. He was driven out of Missouri, in 1861, by the Rebels, on account of his Union settlements (sic - sentiments), losing all his property. He went to Canton, Ill., and Peoria, same state, finally coming to Kansas.

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)

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.

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.

"My father James Upshaw served in the Civil War on the southern side but we do not know how long or what Company. He was only 17 years old when he enlisted with an older brother and he died with dropsy, it was thought was caused from exposure while in the war; he was never as strong after he came home and finally took the dropsy. He died when I was just past two years old and a brother 9 months old. Mother is now 72 years old is living with me.

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.

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. (Source: The St. Louis Republic (St. Louis, MO), issue of 24 Aug 1902, page 12). (NOTE: This news item may not concern this particular family, although they did live in Salem, MO; Salem is in Dent County.

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).

   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.

His second wife, who survives him, was a Miss Dudley of Athens. He is survived also by one daughter. His remains were brought to Crawford and interred in the cemetery there Friday afternoon.His family has the sympathy of the community.
