| 6705 | ZEDA RUTH NELSON Zeda Ruth Nelson was born April 16, 1903 in El Campo, Texas. She was the fourth of five children. Her parents were Dora Whetherby Nelson and Barry Nelson. She had two older sisters, Emma Elizabeth and Annie. Prior to Zeda's birth, a brother was born and died in infancy. she had one younger brother, Earnest Harry Nelson, born March 5, 1905. The dates of birth of her older siblings is unknown at this time. When Zeda was about 5 years old, her father died of blood poisoning, due to a wound he got while plowing bare foot in the fields. After her father's death, the two older girls were sent to live with their mother's brothers family. Zeda and Harry went with their mother's sister and her family. Zeda's mother was so devastated by the death of her husband that she was to become mentally unstable. She was committed to a mental institution when Zeda was about 7 years and Harry was about 5. A local minister came to their Aunt Zoe Kirkland and suggested that she put the Nelson children in an orphanage since she had eight children of her own. It seemed the logical thing to do. Harry and Zeda were sent to Buckner Orphans Home, a Baptist institution in Dallas, Texas. They were to remain there until they were grown. When Zeda was about 13 or 14 years old, she was told that she and Harry had two older sisters that were living, and also that their mother was alive. Zeda remembers meeting them and visiting with them a few times while she was still in the orphanage. When Harry was about 18, he was released from the orphanage and went to California to work in the oil fields with his Kirkland cousins. Zeda remained at the orphanage. They would not release her until she had a sponsor and a job and a place to live. Her older sister Emma acquired enough education to become a school teacher. She had a friend who had a rich widowed aunt who was in need of a personal secretary and companion. Mrs. Floanoay was an invalid and was delighted to have Zeda as her companion. Zeda, Mrs. Floanoay and a cook/housekeeper lived in a 22 room mansion in Beeville, Texas. Zeda met Nolan Frazier at a medicine show that she and her friend Pete had attended. He was allowed to court Zeda until Mrs. Floanoay found out that he was a married man! He was married, but had not lived with his wife for several years. Mrs. Floanoay told Nolan that he could not see Zeda until he got a legal divorce from his wife. He set about to do so immediately. Zeda received word in 1926 that her mother had died. At this time we do not know where our Nelson grandparents are buried. Zeda Ruth Nelson and Nolan B. Frazier were married November 19, 1927. They had two children, John William and Barbara Jean. Zeda died December 16, 1986, in Sparks, Nevada. *Biography written by Barbara Jean Frazier Bigler* ZEDA RUTH NELSON Zeda Ruth Nelson was born April 16, 1903 in El Campo, Texas.

| 6710 | [Mary Catherine Pettit.FTW] In Memoriam (Mary Catherine Pettit, probably published in the Piedmont paper). At 6 o'clock last Sunday eve just as the autumn sun's last rays faded from the bright-hued hill tops, the spirit of our dear and aged friend passed out from the deepening shadows and chill of coming winter into the glorious light of her eternal home. Mrs. Mary Joplin was born in Madison county August 25, 1823, thus making her age 80 years and 2 months. She was a daughter of Dr. John Pettit. At an early age she was baptized into the Christian church near Libertyville in St. Francois county, where she spent the greater part of her life, and where "Aunt Mary," as everybody loved to call her, was welcomed as the friend and helper of the sick and distressed. Though always a comforter to the sorrowful, she had many sorrows of her own. Three times wedded, was three times widowed, and of the nine children born to her only three are living, ---Chas. McFarland, of Coleman, Texas, Mrs. Sallie Doss, of Farmington, and Mrs. Emma Birnie of this place. One brother---Dr. Lee M. Pettit,---and two sisters Mrs. Rebecca Frasier and Mrs. Jane Edwards---are left to mourn her loss. Besides her three children there are nine grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. She was a woman of a strong and helpful nature, a blessing to the sick and poor, ever ready with good counsel for those who asked it and they were many. About four years ago her youngest son, Robert McFarland, died and soon after her eldest son, John McFarland, followed. [This] blow was to much for the mother heart and her heart broke. Paralysis deprived her of activity and she spent her days in her chair until four months ago she took to her bed never to leave it until death released her. Her faith was strong and she was anxious to go---with only one regret; that of being separated from her dear faithful daughter that never left her for an hour after she became helpless; who has been her companion and mainstay and with whom she has lived twenty years past. * SOURCE: Karen Diederichsen <ksd1144@earthlink.net> *In Memoriam (Mary Catherine Pettit, probably published in the Piedmont paper). In the 1870 census, in Liberty twn. a Mary McFarland, age 50, born in MO. is listed living with Sarah (16), Emma (14), Robert (12), Charles (23) and Jane (22).

| 6711 | [Mary Catherine Pettit.FTW] Mary Helen Haines notes: Where is Charles in the 1860 census? He is not with his mother and brother in the St. Francois Co. Missouri census. C.N. and Jane probably moved to Coleman, TX, about 1880 according to obit for Eliza Jane Lewis. In Frances Terry Ingmire's book, Ethel McFarland recalled her father calling him "Flat Land Charlie" because he went out to West Texas to live on the bald, flat, prairie. He supposedly made his fortune there. From census records we know that Arthur McFarland joined Charles there after he left Fannin County because of the land dispute. He is present in Coleman County, living in Coleman City in the 1900 and 1910 censuses. He is buried next to his wife, and Robert Lee McFarland, and Eliza Jane Bollinger, and the Pettys in the city cemetery in Coleman. Ethel kept referring to the McFarland family of Weatherford as being from this branch of Charles, but she must mean Coleman Co. instead--pretty close. The Charles McFarland of Parker County was born in Tennessee, so is a different family. [Mary Catherine Pettit.FTW] Where is Charles in the 1860 census.

| 6713 | [Mary Catherine Pettit.FTW] This obit was found in a leather wallet that probably belonged to Robert's half-brother, C. N. McFarland. It is apparently from a newspaper in Coleman, TX. - R. L. McFarland Deceased - A shadow of sorrow and gloom has pervaded the heart of every resident of our little city since last Sunday morning when a telegram was received from Brownwood conveying the sad intelligence of the death of Robert McFarland. The entire community has been saddened and a happy home stricken with grief and affliction. Having lived here since the early eighties, his aquaint- was very extended and his friends were legion; he was everybody's friend and no one bore him ill will. His illness was very brief and the end came in the presence of but few relatives, among that number being Mrs. C. N. McFarland of this city. On Wednesday night he performed the duties of train guard, making his usual trip from Brownwood to San Angelo and return, although at this time he was not feeling well, and on the following day he kept his bed. On Saturday morning Mrs. McFarland of this city attended his bedside and ministered to his ills, which were apparently free of danger. However, congestion of the lungs set in and before the hour of 6:30 a. m. on Saturday the angel of death had visited his chamber and transmitted his spirit to the God that gave it birth. Deceased about 41 years of age. The funeral was conducted from the residence of his brother, C. N. McFarland, on Tuesday at 2:30 p. m., amid scenes of sorrow and tears. A large concourse of friends and aquaintances followed the remains to the tomb to pay the last tribute of respect to a once dear friend and most exemplery gentleman. The entire community mourns with the bereaved relatives. [Mary Catherine Pettit.FTW] This obit was found in a leather wallet that probably belonged to Robert's half-brother, C. N. McFarland.

| 6732 | _MEDI: 10002 _TYPE: Collection Begun in 1935 by the Social Security Act signed into law by FDR, more than thirty million Americans were registered for the economic security sanctions by 1937. From 1937 to 1940, payments were made in one-lump sums amounts with the first amount being seventeen cents. Following amendments in 1939, the payments turned into monthly benefits and increased. Following further amendments in 1950, cost-of-living increases were awarded to those who were receiving benefits. From 1950 to the present, benefits have increased yearly in response to inflation concerning the costs of living. | Source (S50)

Jim created the Find A Grave website in 1995 because he could not find an existing site that catered to his hobby of visiting the graves of famous people. He found that there are many thousands of folks around the world who share his interests. What began as an odd hobby became a livelihood and a passion. Building and seeing Find A Grave grow beyond his wildest expectations has been immensely satisfying for Jim. Every day, contributors from around the world enter new records, thousands use the site as an educational reference tool, long-lost loved ones are located and millions of lives are fondly remembered. In what other line of work would Jim have met one of the last living Munchkins, spoken to a gathering of grave enthusiasts in a Hollywood mausoleum and acquired treasures like his antique coffin screwdriver (it only screws in)? | Source (S72)

A census taker might have visited a house on a later date, but the information he collected was supposed to be about the people who were in the house on the census day. The basic census enumeration unit was the county. Each county was divided into enumeration districts, one for each enumerator. The completed forms were sent to the Commerce Department’s Census Office in Washington, D.C. Federal censuses are usually reliable, depending on the knowledge of the informant and the care of the census enumerator.
