#52ancestors: Post Four: Myrtie Hairston Bryan, My Grandmother

The Hairston Family - Phillip, Myrtie, Lodema 


This week's writing prompt for #52ancestors is Invite to Dinner. If I could have dinner with family, I would choose this family. I imagine Phillip Hairston would tell me about his siblings, mother, and father. He might know about his grandparents as well. His wife, Lodema Criswell Hairston, could fill in some blanks in her family's history. However, if I had to choose one, I would choose the young girl in this photo, my grandmother, Myrtie Hairston. 

Johnie Myrtlene "Myrtie" Hairston was the second child of Phillip and Lodema Hairston. The first child, a son, died as an infant and Myrtie was born on July 9, 1880 in Falls County, Texas. 


Redic E. and Myrtie Hairston Bryan
I never knew my grandmother or Redic E. Bryan, my grandfather. Myrtie died 28 years before I was born. I would have so many questions for her, she wouldn't have time to eat. I would ask much about her father's Hairston family. And, what it was like growing up in Falls and Erath Counties. Where did she live, go to school, and what were her likes and dislikes. I would like her to tell me about her husband, my grandfather, Redic E. Bryan. 

I would tell my grandmother about my family and about her son, my father. When she died, my father was only six years old. 


Myrtie's obituary was one of those extremely detailed obituaries you would like to find for all family members. To see the obituary and more posts about my grandmother, click here

Friday's Photo: An Unidentified Photo - Family or Friend?



There's not a mark or clue on this photo. It was in a box of that once belonged to my father's family. Is this a cousin? A friend of one of Dad's sisters?  If he is family, he could be a Bryan, Hammett, Biggs, Wylie, Noah, Thompson, Hairston, Criswell, Selman, or Evans. Other names could be Albritton, Watts, Gilbert, and Regan. The possibilities are endless!

I enlarged the photo on the computer and saw his pin has a chain attached and a 20 at the end. Did he graduate from a school in 1920? 



My father's sister graduated from Seymour High School and attended Harland Simmons University in 1920. Knowing this, I checked the Seymour High School yearbook at Ancestry.com and the Hardin Simmons University 1920 yearbook at The Portal to Texas History. He was not found in either yearbook. 

If he is your family, I would love to hear from you!

#52ancestors: Post Three: Permelia Hairston Noah

In my files, this is labeled Mattie and Permelia Hairston. However, I believe the woman on
the left is Permelia and the woman on the right is Mattie. If this is your family and you can
compare photos, please tell me what you think.

This photo is thought to be Phillip A. Hairston
and his sister, Permelia. I believe it was taken about
1917 during Permelia's last visit with her brother. 
This week's writing prompt is longevity. I chose to write about Permelia Hairston as one of the known children of John L. Hairston, Permelia Hairston lived longer than all of them. Some of her siblings are thought to have died as children. Sister, Mary Hairston Gilbert, is thought to have died about 1875. Her sister, Mattie (Martha Elizabeth Hairston) died at 72. And, my great-grandfather, Permelia's brother Phillip, died at the age of 65. 

Permelia Ann Hairston was the second of seven known children of John Lewis Hairston and his wife Eliza. She was born in Bradley County, Arkansas on March 15, 1843, but spent most of her childhood in Hinds County, Mississippi as her family moved to that area by 1847. 
This was found in the Baylor County Banner in
September 1917, a little more than a month before
Phillip Hairston died. Note that Permelia was
J.O. Noah's grandmother, not his mother. J. O. Noah
was the son of Oscar Edward Noah and Mamie Lou Allen. 

Permelia married Joseph Sidney Noah on June 11, 1865, in Hinds County. It is said that soon after, the entire family left for Texas, first stopping in Arkansas. Permelia's father was in Falls County, Texas by 1868 as he married Cynthia H. Moffit on September 21. 

I have not been able to find any record of Permelia or her husband in any state on the 1870 census. Her father cannot be found that year, but her sister, Mary Hairston Gilbert, is living with her husband Tom and their children in Falls County. The 1870 census is said to have omitted a large number of persons in southern states.

In August of 1870, Joseph Sidney Noah purchased land described as being part of the Jonas Brewton head rights survey in Falls County. It was very close to the Criswell cemetery and within close proximity to Limestone County. 

Falls County, Google Maps

Joseph Sidney Noah died in 1873 leaving Permelia a widow with two boys -William W., born in 1866,  and Oscar Edward, born in 1871. 

In 1874, Permelia's father, John L. Hairston, borrowed $344 dollars from her guaranteeing the payment with his current crop of cotton and corn on his farm where he resided on Big Creek. 

Permelia purchased land on Brushy Creek in Falls County from her father in 1879. 

1880 Census - Falls County
The 1880 U. S. Census showed Permelia living with her two sons, her father, her brother - Phillip A. Hairston and his wife Lodema, her sister - Martha E. Hairston Chisum and her family, another sister - Sarah Jane Hairston, and two Gilbert children.

Permelia sold the land she purchased from her father to George Hope in 1883 and by 1884, she was living (and paying taxes) in Erath County, Texas. 

Permelia's 18-year-old son, William, died on November 15, 1884. He is buried in the Bethel School Cemetery in Erath County. 

The following year, on September 6, 1885, Permelia Noah married A. J. Lackey. By 1890, her husband had left the home and, in 1893, Permelia Lackey filed for divorce and requested to change her name back to Permelia Noah.  

From at least 1900 until her death in 1928, Permelia lived with her son, Oscar Edward Noah, and his family in Erath County. 

Permelia was 85 at the time of her death on November 14, 1928. She is buried in West End Cemetery in Stephenville, Erath County, Texas. 

 Note that she was not the only Permelia Hairston. Permelia Hairston, the wife of J. N. Hairston, lived in Waco, Texas.  Two others found on the 1870 census were in Alabama and Virginia. 


Permelia Ann Hairston Noah is #55 on this family chart. Click to enlarge.

Friday's Photo: A Closer Look



I've posted at least one of these photos previously. I would love to know the identity of the people in these photos. One is possibly my Aunt DeRay Bryan. The others could just be neighbors or friends.  However, I hope they are family - maybe Hairstons, Bryans, or Criswells. The photos were probably taken in West Texas. I always kept these photos together as I thought two subjects were in both photos, but tonight I blew them up and realized I was wrong!

These are definitely two different women.


These MIGHT be the same girl. What do you think?


I believe the young girl on the right is my aunt, DeRay Bryan.
This would date the photo at about 1915.
I think she looks a lot like this woman. Could the woman be DeRay's mother, my grandmother?

If that's DeRay on the right, could her sister, Marie be the girl on the left?




Looking closely at this photo, I noticed all women had the same 
sheer fabric on their dresses. Three have gingham. Any thoughts? 


Not sure about this little guy

#52ancestors: Post Two: Juanita Pearl Thompson Gleghorn, a Hairston Descendant

Juanita, Clarence, Ina Lucille, and Andy Bowie Thompson
This week's writing prompt for #52ancestors is "favorite photo." This is one of two of my favorite Hairston photos. The below cropped and enlarged version of the photo of four of children of Floyd Thompson and Ora Cox has appeared on my blog three times. 



My cousin, Jackie, sent this photo with over 100 other photos - most not identified. My quest to identify the people in the photos led me to several cousins, one being the youngest child in this photo - Juanita Pearl Thompson Gleghorn, my second-cousin-once-removed. 


Juanita 1917
Juanita 2005
Juanita was born on April 29,1918, in Seymour, Texas, and was the daughter of Floyd William Thompson and Ora Ellen Cox. She married Donald Victor Gleghorn on Dec. 29, 1937 in Seymour. 

According to her obituary, Juanita was a longtime member of the Eastside Church of Christ. She was a homemaker, an avid seamstress, and an excellent cook. She was an art teacher for over 30 years and was the first president of the Duncan Art Guild. 

Juanita lived in Duncan, Oklahoma when I received my first letter from her in 2000. She remembered playing with my father when he was a small child, the hand-painted china that my grandfather brought my grandmother from his trips, the lye soap that her mother made for my father’s older brother, and the deaths of my grandparents.  Her family had furniture and china that had once belonged to my grandmother, Myrtie Hairston Bryan.  



My grandmother, Myrtie Hairston Bryan 1900
Painted by Juanita Pearl Gleghorn
Juanita was a wonderful artist. She and her husband lived in San Diego during the WWII where she had her first art classes. During my first visit with her, in 2001, I saw so many beautiful paintings in her home. And, as a gift, she gave me a painting of my grandmother. 

Juanita also liked to write stories. Along with her interesting letters, she sent me stories to read to my children. Juanita wrote a wonderful book for her family, The Life of A Sharecropper's Family, telling of her life growing up and other family stories. 

Juanita died on August 13, 2011. Her husband preceded her in death on May 3, 2008. They are buried in Fairlawn Cemetery in Comanche, Oklahoma.


Juanita Pearl Thompson Gleghorn is #54 in my Hairston Tree
The solid lines indicate that the connection to the family is documented while the dotted lines indicate that direct evidence has not yet been found to make the connection.

Friday's Photo: My Grandfather in Costume



This is my grandfather, Claude Davis, on the left and an unknown friend on the right. My grandfather's family was from Edmonson County, Kentucky. The Kuprion Post Card Studio was in Louisville, Kentucky. I could not determine a date, but know it is probably taken in the 1910s or 1920s. He was so young. This could have been taken in Louisville or the studio might have had a traveling photographer and the photo taken elsewhere.

#52ancestors: Post One - John L. Hairston

The solid lines indicate that the connection to the family is documented while the dotted lines indicate that direct evidence has not yet been found to make the connection.
Click on the family tree to see a larger image.

Today, I joined Amy Johnson Crow’s 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks writing challenge and this week’s prompt is to "start." I joined this challenge in 2014 and wrote 52 posts about John L. Hairston, his family, and possible ancestors. The above chart shows the family members I researched. 

I plan to focus on the Hairston family during this challenge as well, however; my format will change as this year Amy has writing prompts which will have me looking harder at my research.  

I am excited about this challenge as I have more Hairston family who still need their stories told and new information to add to those I researched previously. 

Today's post is a timeline of what I have learned about the life of my great-great-grandfather, John Lewis Hairston. This is a repeat of my post dated December 31, 2014, with only a few added facts. New information, documenting his time in Hinds County, is followed by an asterisk (*). 


1812 - #52 John Lewis Hairston was born about 1812 in South Carolina. If his parents are #11 Hugh Brown Hairston and #29 Sarah McElhaney, he was probably born in Abbeville.
