Porter of Tennessee and Assistant Commissioner of Indian Affairs under President Cleveland. He was prominent in the political and social life in Washington. He refused the ambassadorship of Spain and Brazil; he had great magnitude and charm.

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

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

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

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

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

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

He entered the business field in North Carolina, later becoming General Agent for the Aetna Life Insurance Company. I never had the opportunity of meeting him, but he was known as an excellent underwriter all over the United States.

Sage Hardin Upshaw, a nephew, of somewhere in Africa, writes that "it's all over in this section but the shouting; and as I see it our boys did better than well, but the British had a much larger force. I was in the battle of Rizerte, and I have my censor's okay for that. I rode through the town once and saw plenty. Shortly we are moving and thus will add to an already lengthy journey. The Reader's Digest is coming through to me all right, but the other newspapers have not come. The Court reporting is coming along all right." Sage is Secretary to a Lieut.-Colonel since being with the Army in the States. His brother, William Warner Upshaw, who was recently graduated from the Naval Academy, Annapolis, Md., was a student of high scholastic rank. In the class of 760 men his rank, Senior year, was 38th.

1. An obituary for Olin Upshaw is needed.

2. Gwinnett Historical Society Newsletter, 1977 #4; Originally printed in “The Eagle”, Tucker Federal Savings & Loan, Tucker, Ga., May 1970); two photographs included) (1) Olin E. Upshaw, (2) After 76 years, the Upshaw general merchandise store is still in business at this site, once known as Rosebud, Georgia. The store was operated nearly half a century by Mr. and Mrs. Olin E. Upshaw.
    For Sale, New Fords $395 - Upshaw’s Store, Rosebud, Ga. (Year 1915)
   In 1915 you could buy at Upshaw’s General store in Rosebud, Georgia, a Model T Ford for $395, a Dodge automobile for $800, a hand made woman’s picture hat for $10,  a fancy buggy for $65 - and groceries - well, five to six cents a pound for meat would give you some idea. 
   It was a store that sold everything but undertaker’s supplies, and bought everything that could be sold.
   The Upshaw general merchandise store, a historic landmark, is still in business after 76 years and is operated by Mrs. A.B. Cartwright. It is located in the Grayson-Rosebud Road in extreme southeast Gwinnett County.
   The store’s former operators, widely known and highly respected Olin E. Upshaw and his wife, Mabel Davis Upshaw, can see from the living room of their home the old store,  where they worked and struggled for nearly a half century,  serving the needs of rural people.  Their life together is a fascinating story - a part of the early American dream of independence won through hard work, honesty, frugality, and good business practices.
   The store was started in 1894 in a small frame building by Mr. Upshaw’s father, the Rev. Preston C. Upshaw, a Primitive Baptist minister and farmer. It was then a wilderness criss-crossed by wagon trails. Olin took over management of the store in 1907 after finishing business college in Atlanta. Mrs. Upshaw joined him in 1911 as wife and helper.
   Under Mr. Upshaw’s management the store grew into the largest store of its kind in Georgia, serving an area from Lawrenceville to Monroe and Conyers to Stone Mountain. 
   “One year we did one hundred thousand dollars in sales,” Mr. Upshaw recalled. “At today’s prices that would mean moving more than a half million dollars in merchandise.”
   The area was populated mostly by cotton farmers. Mr. and Mrs. Upshaw extended credit to families at the start of a year for seed, fertilizer, groceries and other necessities.  In the fall Mr. Upshaw would buy their cotton, and apply the proceeds toward their debt.  If it came a short crop year, he would extend the balance of their debt into another year.
   “Everyone paid his debts,” Mr. Upshaw said. “It was a day of rugged honesty. Everyone made it on his own. We didn’t start losing money on anyone until later years when we went on 30 days credit.”
   During a period of hard times before the first World War, Mrs. Upshaw, creative and deft at needle work,  started a millinery shop, and with the aid of two helpers, made women’s hats, children’s hats, baby bonnets, and special picture hats. Her special $5 hat would now sell for $50 to $100.  Here trade extended to shops in Atlanta. Mrs. Upshaw didn’t charge for her services, made her profit on materials.
   “Some days,” she said, “hat sales would be the only cash we’d take in. The store side had nothing but butter and eggs to show for its efforts.”
    In the early 1920’s the boll weevil hit. The Upshaws had obligated themselves for nearly $100,000 in goods on eastern markets. Despite the economic collapse in cotton, they paid off every cent of their debt, while other merchants took bankruptcy. 
   “When times were bad, I’d cry and worry,” Mrs. Upshaw said. “Olin would come to the house, forget about the store and go to sleep.”
   Until they retired from the business in 1958, Mr. and Mrs. Upshaw worked a 16-hour day. 
   Always alert to ways of building his business, Mr. Upshaw started a trucking service in the 1920’s, hauling goods from Atlanta, and delivering fertilizer from railroad cars in nearby Loganville to farmers at 25 cents a ton. As much as 1,200 tons of fertilizer was delivered in one year. .
   Another innovation was coin due bills - in pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, 50 cent and $1 and $5, which were given in payment of produce. “One man in the community, who was pretty close with money, came in one day with $90 of those due bill coins and bought a carriage,” Mr. Upshaw recalls.
   Mr. and Mrs. Upshaw are scions of distinguished pioneer families of Gwinnett. Mrs. Upshaw’s mother was Cora Hawthorne, who descended from James and David C. Hawthorne. Another ancestor was Louisa Rutledge of South Carolina. Mr. Upshaw’s mother was Lena Francis. His grandfather was Sir Jonathan Francis, who came to America after graduating from Oxford University in England. He was a textile engineer. The Upshaws have a daughter, Mrs. Eugenia Upshaw Carter of Nashville, Tenn.  
   Mr. Upshaw has been president of the Walton County REA for about 20 years, and a member of the Gwinnett Zoning and Planning Board for 13 years.

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

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

	The death of Dr. Upshaw brings sorrow to his devoted family, a large family connection, and to hundreds of friends here and throughout this section.
	Following an illness that became serious, in December, he had been confined to bed and but little hope had been held for his recovery. Realizing his illness critical, he wished to be at home with his loved ones and there spend his remaining days. He bore his affliction with a fortitude that is rare. During the months of his illness he had the tender and loving care of his devoted family, his physicians, nurses and loyal friends.
	Thursday afternoon at two o’clock the frail body fell peacefully asleep, to all that is earthly. In his death the town and community loses a beloved physician, a most useful man, a valuable citizen. He had been actively engaged in the Medical profession since locating here in the year, 1916, with the exception of the time he was in World War I. He was a Lieutenant in the U. S. Army and stationed at Camp Wheeler, Macon, Ga., from August 1917, to July 1918, when he was sent overseas and was in France until April 1919. In France he received commission of Captain, and an Honorable Discharge, his Commanding Officer, Lt. Col. Fred E. Jones, of the Medical Corps, pronounced him a “splendid officer in any selection.”
	He was graduated from Emory University, Medical College, in 1915 and served his internship in the Pacific Railroad hospital, Tacoma, Washington.
	He was a member of the Walton County Medical Association and was a local surgeon for the Georgia Railroad.
	He was also a member of the Lindsey-Harper Post, Number 46, of the American Legion.
	Born at Rosebud, Gwinnett county, September 1, 1903, he was the second son of the late Eld. and Mrs. P. C. Upshaw.
	In April 1917, he was married to Miss Ida Barron of Clarksville, Ga.
	Surviving him are: his wife and two daughters, Mrs. Robert Charles Aycock and Mrs. Theo L. Leres, a little grandson, Robert Charles Aycock, II, his sister, Mrs. Walter Barrett, of Graham, N.C.; his brothers, Olin E. Upshaw, of Rosebud, and P. C. Upshaw, of Atlanta who are tendered the heartfelt sympathy of many friends in their bereavement.
	Funeral services were held Saturday morning at 11:00 o’clock, at the residence, with Elder R. L. Cook officiating minister.
	Interment was in Circle Rest, city cemetery, with El. L. Almand Co., Directors. Services were concluded at the grave where many and lovely flowers now mark the newly made mound.
	Pallbearers were: Messrs J. H. Stephens, Sanders Upshaw, B. A. Malcom, J. P. Walton, Furman Lloyd, of Social Circle, and Dr. W. C. McGeary, of Madison.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

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

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

SECONDARY SOURCE:

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

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

   Emily C. Upshaw married John Sherman D. Armstrong on 7 May 1876 in Washington County, Texas.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

SECONDARY SOURCES:

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

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

   Impressive funeral services were conducted from the residence of her daughter, Mrs. A. V. Jones, Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock, with Dr. J. O. Pettis and Dr. Gibson officiating. The magnificent floral offerings bore mute testimony to the high esteem to which Mrs. Perry was held. Interment was in the city cemetery.
   Mrs. Perry is survived by four sons, B. F. Perry, of Ball Ground, C. A. Perry of Gadsden, Ala., John Perry of Dublin, Ga., and Thomas Perry of Florida. Five daughters, Mrs. A. V.

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

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

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

45. Family Bible record of James Robert & Martha Catherine Pearl (Upshaw) Brook (Montgomery, AL: Alabama Bible Society, A.J. Holman & Co., 1903); in possession of Ted O. Brooke, 1988.

SECONDARY SOURCES:

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

COMMENTS:

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

2. Military record:  None; occupation:  Farmer

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

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

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

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

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

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

   We wish to thank our friends for kindnesses lavished upon us in our sad bereavement, occasioned by the death of our dear daughter and sister. Mr. and Mrs. J.R. Brook and children.

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

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

9. 1935, 30 June: Widow, Mother of Seven, Builds up Hotel Business.
   Career of Mrs. Ida Upshaw Todd is story of Faith and Hard Work. By Eugene Anderson.
   Frail woman can keep a stout heart and a strong faith and accomplish as much as a man.
   Here is a story of a woman bereft when her seventh child was a tot.
   She was 22 years old and was widowed with seven children. All seven had to be reared and educated without the husband's aid. All seven have been reared and educated and the mother is triumphantly carrying on. The only aid she received was from the children themselves. They have grown up without having to acknowledge that fate handicapped them. And they feel that they are stronger and better able to cope with the world because of their battles. Each knows the importance of the true philosophy of life, and they [know] how it must be conserved.
   Over at Carrollton,in the extreme western part of Georgia, is a 50-room hotel called Crepe Myrtle. It is popular, because it is neat and clean, and because it is managed by a woman who knows how to look after it, how to prepare the food, what dietetics mean, and how to provide for the comfort of the guests.
   Her name is Ida Upshaw Todd. She was left an orphan before she can remember, and her grandmother reared her. Her father was R.V. Upshaw, and he lived near Carrollton. Her mother was Ida Routen. The family had been left poor by the reverses of the Civil War, but the orphan girl was reared to believe that a woman had better starve than work for a living. It was the old idea inculcated in all aristocratic circles. Poverty would not overcome it. Only time would cure the disease -  time and circumstances.
   SEVEN LITTLE ONES.
   The time came for Mrs. Todd. At 14 she married. In a little while children began to come, and they continued to come with natural regularity until there were seven. Then Mrs. Todd had to face life alone, at 22, alone in bread winning, and in rearing the children. One son was in the group. The others were girls.
   These were early taught the responsibilities of life, and they learned to work. Their mother taught them by example, and they had too much good blood in them to stand by and see the mother do the work unaided. They vied with each other in the effort to lift her load.
   The son Ray has graduated from Oglethorpe university. He helped to pay his college expenses by working in the printing office of the school. This meant night work, and work when other students were playing. It was play for Ray to do anything to help his mother. He did not need "recreation." His work gave him joy, and that is better than most recreation.
   He learned that any noble soul can find joy in doing duty. Play delights only those who can get a vacation from responsibility, who can run away from the workaday world and its requirements. Ray could not run away while his mother struggled at home. Since his graduation he has developed an ambition to be a newspaper man, so he has a job with the Cedartown Standard; and needless to say, he is not afraid to work at anything his hands can find to do. That's the way he was "raised."
   FIRST DAUGHTER MARRIED.
   The eldest daughter was Gladys. As soon as she finished high school she took the train for a business college, and learned to do office work. Then she married; and her mother, in speaking of it, says: "Thank God, she is happily married; and has a husband who strives to be worthy of her."
   Then came Kathryn, the third child. She finished high school and went immediately to business college. She has a very satisfactory position in Atlanta, says her mother., 
   The next three girls finished high school, attended West Georgia college at Carrollton, each specializing in something out of which she can take care of herself. Gwendolyn studied cookery and food chemistry at the University of Georgia, and she uses this to good advantage in her mother's hotel.
   Fay, the youngest, has one more year at high school.
   Each of the three youngest girls takes over special duties at the hotel. One keeps books and looks after all details involving money. To her every penny must be accounted for.
   STRUGGLES AGAINST THIEVES.
   Another manages the maids and counts to see what thieves came in as guests. Bath mats are stolen by a certain type of guest, towels are stolen by another class, and another type has sticky fingers when he touches an ash tray. Some will even steal the bedspreads. The Todds have learned almost how to tell which kind of person will steal which kind of property. Hotel people know when anything is stolen,  and they can tell who stole it, because the number of the room from which it is missing is written in the register or on the card opposite the name.But why put a person in jail for stealing a dollar's worth of something? That's just one of the disagreeable things about being a widow and having to be popular with the public.
   "If I try to change human nature and make people different," says Mrs. Todd, "I will make myself miserable and have a lot of trouble for nothing , so I have to figure on thefts. I grieve when I see the thief. I know it is a pity, and that the person who steals loses more than the person from whom the thing is stolen. One is losing character. The owner of the stolen property loses only something that is cheap. Character is not cheap. The thief loses character. He loses character though he may have been a thief a long time. Every time he steals he goes down a little deeper into the mire."
   BEASTLY MEN.
   Then Mrts. Todd talks of the "beasts in men's clothing," those men who mistake kindness for weakness; and want to see what insults a woman can stand. "But a hotel woman soon learns how to freeze the blood in the veins of such brutes," says Mrs. Todd. "Even my little girls soon learned how to fend against such people. You know the Latin fable that says, 'Nothing is so small but that it can protect itself.' God gave woman the power to put man in his place and keep him there. A look of the eye is sufficient against all but the insane."
   Then there are the "Mr. and Mrs.." frauds. Those couples who come in wearing a guilty or else a bravado, shameless look.
   PLENTY OF HARD WORK.
   Speaking of the hard work in the business, Mrs. Todd tells of a season when she had nineteen highway engineers for whom she had to serve breakfast at 4 o'clock in the morning. This necessitated getting up before 3, but it meant about five hundred dollars a month added to income, and that was too important to let pass. She could not hire a servant for love or money, as she says; because that was too much like real work. She did the job by herself for three months.
   Then her mind reverted to another kind of thief that all hotel people know about. He is the one who beats his board bill by slipping out in the night or by some slick ruse. And then the fellow who gets a check cashed, by telling a lie about it. Her list of losses from these two classes of crooks is a big one, much larger than she would like for it to be.
   "Yes," continues Mrs. Todd, "we have a chance to see the evil side of life, and we have our problems, and a woman in my position sometimes wishes she had never heard of a hotel; but our experiences are not all bad, not at all. We meet some of the loveliest of people. Most of them are lovely, kind and considerate. They appreciate our position, and try to aid us all they can. They appreciate our efforts to make them comfortable and happy; and it is a joy to have them around.When we are dealing with the high types of people we forget all about the other kind; we remember only the good."
   STARTED IN A SMALL WAY. 
   No, she did not start out with a big hotel. Her first effort was with a small rooming house. She first tried to do designing, and she learned to make fine things to wear and she even did plain sewing. She was having to get away from the aristocratic notions of the old South. She had seven children to feed and to educate. The road looked long and and its hills seemed awfully steep.
   She learned Hood's Song of the Shirt, and she did not hesitate to "stitch, stitch, stitch." Every stitch meant something. It could hardly be estimated what a  stitch was worth in money, but she knew enough stitches meant the wherewith to buy bread. But the more she stitched, the bigger grew the children and the more things they needed. She found her task impossible. She couldn't make enough if she continued to depend upon her ability to wield the needle.
   What else could she do? She couldn't think of a thing. Married at 15, and widowed with seven children at little beyond 22 years old. She had no preparation that would enable her to augment her income. She was whipped. No, there was one more thing she could do: she could pray. And pray she did. She had reached the place that she could not do without prayer. When man reaches the bottom of extremity, when he gets all he can stand of suffering and hardship, when he reaches the blind wall of the journey, and can see no hope except in death, then he instinctively turns to God. He may not have seen the need of Him before, thinks Mrs. Todd, but when everything else gives out, then God takes hold. In answer to her prayer eventually came the light. It didn't come at first. She had to prove her faith. And she did ; she didn't cry out against God, but by trusting Him, and by knowing that He would save all who deserve to be saved, she says she reached that point where she wanted Him to wipe off the slate and start a new account  with her. She would give Him a squarer deal next time.
   Then came the idea of a rooming house. She found a place with ten bedrooms, but to get it she would need to go in debt a thousand dollars. What a staggering sum! She had never seen a thousand dollars up to that time. But she had the urge to go ahead and better her condition. She arranged with enough teachers  to board with her if she would fix up the place and she took the chance. Then she found that she could attract some regular diners besides the teachers, and she began to arrange for special dinner parties. She did all of the work herself, with the help of an aged Negro woman.Three years of the most laborious work brought her such results that she was encouraged to lease a larger place. The children's needs had still increased, and they were suffering for still more money. The next venture was in a place with 16 rooms. Another big indebtedness had to be assumed to work out this plan. It didn't occur to her that she was wonderfully blessed to be able to command so much credit. All she could think about was the terrible job she was undertaking to provide for her family and to pay off a big debt at the same time.
   She was accumulating fine equipment, and she was being swept right along toward the hotel business, though she had not thought of it that way.
   For five years she struggled with this sixteen-room proposition; and she made a go of it. She then induced her lessor to convert the property into the present hotel, with its fifty rooms. That's Crepe Myrtle.
   She was told that she could not last a year. This challenged her fighting spirit. She determined to give the best hotel service possible under the circumstances, and she meant to make every guest a walking advertisement fir the place.
   She couldn't spare the money to advertise a s she wished to do, but she knew the importance of advertising, so among the other things she did, was the creating and circulating  of the following card:

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

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

   From our Correspondents. Luthersville. Our little burgh was enlivened yesterday by the marriage of one of our first (sic) young men to one of Grantville's fairest daughters, at the residence of the bride's father. The affair has been the leading society theme for quite a while, and its culmination is hailed with pleasure by the many friends of both. The wedding was a very quiet one, only a few friends and relatives being present. At 4 p.m. the impressive ceremony was performed by the Rev. Dr. White, which made Mr. W. I. Upshaw, of Luthersville, and Miss Callie Hopson, of Grantville, man and wife. Immediately after the ceremony the bride and groom, accompanied by a few of the attendants, returned to Luthersville, where they partook of an elegant supper, at the home of the groom's grandfather. We wish them joy, peace and prosperity.

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

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

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

COMMENTS:

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

DOCUMENTATION & NOTES:

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

NOTES:

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

William Jefferson "Jeff" Upshaw and Mary A. "Mollie" Thomas were married circa 1896. They were divorced on 18 Dec 1916 in Pottawatomie Co, Oklahoma. Mary A. "Mollie" Thomas was born on 4 Mar 1875 in Missouri. She appeared in the census in 1900 in Polk Co, Arkansas. She appeared in the census in 1910 in Pottawatomie Co, Oklahoma. Mollie died in 1917–1920 at the age of 42 in Pottawatomie Co, Oklahoma.
