James Bryan's Bible - Recorded Births, Deaths, and Marriages of Bryan and Wimberly Family Members in Northwest Louisiana.





This Bible is identified as James Bryan's Book. It is part of the Frye family's collection of family documents and photos. James and Alice Mary Wimberly did not have children but did adopt Joseph "Josie" Sarah Catherine Bryan and John Terrel (also seen as Terrell) Bryan, siblings and children of Sarah Margaret Wimberly (Alice's sister) and Joseph B. Bryan (James's half-brother). It appears that this Bible was passed down from James and Alice to Josie Bryan Cook then on to her grandson, William Trott and finally to the Frye family. In this post, I have included the scanned images of the pages in the Bible containing family information. 

On this page in the first column, marriages were recorded for James and Alice, for Josie and Joseph W. Cook, for Thomas H. Wimberly (Alice's brother) and Josephine A. Davis, and for Josie's brother, John T. Bryan and Sarah Elizabeth "Lizzie" McElroy. 

In the second column, the marriages of the children of Josie Bryan and Joe Cook are recorded; Lula L. Cook to William J. Trott, Alice Belle Cook to Thomas W. Neal, Mary Elizabeth Cook to Thomas Corley, and James Bryan Cook to Ollye Mae Reed. The death of S. E. McElroy, wife of John T. Bryan is found at the bottom of the column. 


On this second page are the births and deaths of James, Alice, Josie, and John. On the bottom of the page are the birth and death dates of the biological parents of Josie and John, Joseph B. Bryan and Sarah M. Wimberly

The second column also shows the deaths of James Anderson Bryan and Fannie Nix Bryan. James A. was Josie and John's brother (another son of Joseph and Sarah). James A. and Fannie died of influenza within only a few days of each other. 


This third page tells of births and deaths of several family members. 

Thomas Henry Wimberly, Alice's brother, died in 1871, just a few years after his wife, Josephine, and young daughter, Lula. 

Under Thomas Henry Wimberly's birth, John Lawson Senior's death on April 6th, 1888 can be seen in very faded handwriting. This may be Alice's uncle as her mother, Lucy Lawson Wimberly did have a brother, John, who lived in Louisiana. 

Sophanny Ann Frances Nix Wimberly was the first wife of John Lawson Wimberly who is named below her and died on April 13, 1888. John was Alice's brother. 

C. A. Martin was Charles Arthur Martin, son of Laura Frances Bryan Martin (Josie's biological sister) and Thomas Jefferson Martin. He died at age 27 on June 15, 1912. 

At the bottom of the second column find the deaths of Martha S. Caldwell and Alice M. Stewart sisters of Alice's mother, Lucy Lawson.

This final page names some birth and death dates of  Josie and Joe Cook's children.

Tutorship of the minor children of James C. Watts and Catharine A. Bryan of Bienville Parish, Louisiana

The Oath of Catharine A. Watts, Natural Tutrix - 21 August 1867


These documents were a part of the ten-page succession of James C. Watts.  The record was requested and received from the County Clerk's office in Bienville Parish, Louisiana. 

This transcription was added to my Rootsweb Freepages website in 2005. Ancestry, who now owns Rootsweb, is retiring the pages in 2024. When and if they are returned, the pages will be static and I will not be able to make changes or additions. I am adding them to this blog along with new information and photos. 

Tutorship

Similar to a guardian, a tutor is a person appointed or qualified by a court to act as guardian of a minor’s property. In every tutorship, there is an under-tutor who shall act when the tutor is unable or whenever the interest of the minor is in opposition to the interest of the tutor. These terms appear to be unique to the laws of Louisiana.

James C. Watts and Catharine A. Bryan

James C. Watts, the husband of Catharine Amanda Bryan, was the son of Richard I. Watts and his wife, Sarah. James served as a hospital nurse in the Bienville Blues - Company C of the 9th Louisiana Infantry during the Civil War. Although there were statements in his compiled service record telling that James was discharged in 1862 as he was over 35 years of age, his record clearly showed that he was serving in Virginia in 1863. And a Pierson family letter states that he was wounded in Virginia in 1864. James died in 1867. His burial place is unknown. 


Catharine Amanda Bryan, sometimes seen as "Manda," was the daughter of Reddick Bryan and Elizabeth Regan. Following the death of James C. Watts, Catharine Amanda married G. B. Thomas in 1873. It is assumed that this marriage was short-lived as by 1875, she appeared on documents as Mrs. Watts. Catharine Amanda was said to have died in 1903.

Note that Catharine spelled her name with an "a" following the "h." In many documents, her name was spelled as Catherine; however, Catharine's signature on the above document and also on her father's succession records indicate that she used the less common spelling Catharine.

The Children of James C. Watts and Catharine A. Bryan

Edmund B. Watts, also seen spelled Edmond, was the son of James C. Watts and Catharine Amanda Bryan. He was born on 7 February 1853 and, in 1870, married Martha Elizabeth "Lizzie" Wimberly, daughter of John Lawson Wimberly and Sophanny Ann Frances Nix. It was said that Edmund died of pneumonia at the age of thirty-three, leaving six children and one not yet born: Frances Amanda Watts, James C. Watts, Sarah Catherine Watts, Lucy Watts, John Lawson Watts, Harriet E. Watts, and Eddie Bryan Watts. Edmund and Martha Elizabeth are buried in the Wimberly Cemetery in Bienville Parish. 

Martha Elizabeth "Lizzie" Wimberly, wife of Edmund Watts and their 
three youngest children: Harriet Elizabeth Watts, John Lawson Watts, and 
Eddie Bryan Watts. 


Alice Elizabeth Watts was born in about 1859.  The first daughter of James C. Watts and Catharine Amanda Bryan, she married Green H. Huckabay Jr and remained in Northwest Louisiana.  They are known to have children Amanda D., Joe, Denson, Fannie, John L., Lizzie, and Bryant. Alice Elizabeth and her husband are buried in Old Castor Cemetery in Bienville Parish. 

Sarah Catherine Watts was the daughter of James C. Watts and Catharine Amanda Bryan. I am not certain about the spelling of her name as I have seen it as Sarah spelled also as Sara and her middle name spelled as Catharine, Catherine and Katherine. In a letter dated 1914, written by her cousin, Sallie Hammett, Sarah was referred to as "Kate Stewart." On the 1870 census, she was Sara Watts, age 10, living with the family of her Aunt, Georgia Ann Frances Bryan Pitman Wimberly, in Bienville Parish. Also listed nearby were her future husband, Elastus Stewart, and his family.  Children of Sarah and Elastus were James Pitman, Sarah Elizabeth "Lizzie," Thomas E., Alice Corinne, John Hiser, Martha "Mattie Lou," and Mary Lou. Sarah died in Arcadia, Bienville Parish, in 1932 and is buried in the Arcadia Cemetery. 

Martha Caldwell Watts, also seen as "Mattie" was the youngest child of James C. Watts and Catharine Amanda Bryan. She was born 18 February 1866. Martha married Jeffrey Tolbert and they are known to have children Mary Alice, Marian, Joseph Earl "Dodie," Leon H., Hugh Leroy, Burdette, Earnest, Irene, and Allen Watts. Martha died on 8 December 1934 and is buried with her husband in the Bethany Cumberland Presbyterian Cemetery in Natchitoches Parish.

Clippings from The Baylor County Banner - Seymour, Texas - January 26, 1926


My grandparents, Redic E. Bryan and Myrtie Hairston, and my great-grandparents, Phillip A. Hairston and Lodema Criswell, moved to Baylor County in 1905. My father, Whit Criswell Bryan, was born in Seymour in 1920. He was the youngest of seven children born to Redic and Myrtie. 

In April 2019, I visited the Texas State Library and Archives to read Baylor County Banner issues that could not be found online or on microfilm. I photographed articles with information about my father's family, who lived in Seymour. While sorting through my family finds, I realized I had photos of articles that might interest others looking for family. I have pictures of numerous articles from 1923 and a few from other years. I will post as time allows. 

Thank you to Matt Gwinn at the Baylor County Banner for permitting me to post these clippings.  







Grandma Skinner was Clarinda Flora “Clara” Jones Skinner. She was the daughter of Milton Jones and Rhoda Lessenbee of Johnson County, Illinois. Her husband was Esau Skinner, who was killed in Throckmorton in 1894

A Letter from Sallie Bryan Hammett of Bienville Parish, Louisiana to Lizzie Ragan in Terrell County, Georgia Written in Spring 1915


I scanned this photo at the home of a cousin in Post, Texas, several years ago.
This is Wesley Hammett and Sallie Bryan and their children, Jim,
Eleanor, and Ada.
 [1] 


This letter and one other were sent to me by a cousin in Georgia.  They were originally copied and sent to him by E. Ragan Pruitt. [2] I love how these posts came together with photos shared by so many different families. 

This letter and others belonged to Lizzie Ragan and their location is not known at this time.  Lizzie was looking for genealogical information. Sallie Hammett wrote this letter sometime in the Spring of 1915 prior to a second letter dated April 28, 1915.

Friday's Photo: An Unknown Photo from a Bienville Parish Family Collection





This photo, from Marguerite Cook Clark's collection, is labeled "unknown." Do you know this young man? 

He reminds me of the photos of Thomas "Tom" Eddie Stewart posted last year at this link.  I have posted a photo of Tom below the unknown young man. 


Thomas Eddie Stewart was born May 23, 1884 (also seen as 1883), in Arcadia, Bienville Parish, Louisiana, to Sarah Catherine "Kate" Watts and Elastus T. Stewart. Siblings were James Pitman, Sarah Elizabeth, Alice Corinne, John Hiser, Martha "Mattie Lou," and Mary Lou.

Could this be Thomas or one of his brothers; James Pitman Stewart or John Hiser Stewart? 

Do you have pictures from the Stewart family? If so, please share!

From the Files of Marguerite Cook Clark: Thomas Eddie Stewart



According to his WWII draft card, Tom Stewart was tall, had black hair, brown eyes, and a ruddy complexion. Thomas Eddie Stewart was born May 23, 1884 (also seen as 1883), in Arcadia, Bienville Parish, Louisiana, to Sarah Catherine "Kate" Watts and Elastus T. Stewart. Siblings were James Pitman, Sarah Elizabeth, Alice Corinne, John Hiser, Martha "Mattie Lou," and Mary Lou.  

Very little can be found about Tom Stewart. From records at Ancestry.com, I saw that he was a farmer and it doesn't appear that he ever lived outside of Bienville Parish. 

Thomas Eddie Stewart died on April 16, 1950. He is buried in the Arcadia Cemetery along with his parents and four siblings. 

Tom was a grandson of Catharine Amanda Bryan Watts, sister to my great-grandfather, Terrell Bryan and Marguerite Cook Clark's great-grandfather, Joseph Bryan.  Catharine Amanda, Terrell, and Joseph are all children of Reddick Bryan and Elizabeth Regan.

From the Files of Marguerite Cook Clark: Alice Corinne Stewart Boone








These three photos of Alice Corinne Stewart were found in the files of Marguerite Cook Clark. Marguerite Cook Clark's mother, Mary Marguerite "Maggie" Martin Cook, labeled these photos. Maggie and Corinne were both born in 1887 and were first cousins. 

Alice Corinne was the daughter of Sarah Catherine Watts and Elastus Stewart. She was a granddaughter of Catharine Amanda Bryan Watts, sister to my great-grandfather, Terrell Bryan and Marguerite Cook Clark's great-grandfather, Joseph Bryan.  Catharine Amanda, Terrell, and Joseph are all children of Reddick Bryan and Elizabeth Regan

There was little documented information about Alice Corinne in trees at Ancestry and FamilySearch. However, I am persistent and after three nights of searching found a very sad story. 


This photo of Alice Corinne Stewart is very
difficult to see. If you would like to
fix this photo, please contact me and I 

will send you the original scan. 
Alice Corinne was born in September 1887 in Louisiana. She was living in Bienville Parish in 1900 with her parents and siblings. It is said that she married Augustus Chapman Boone on September 22, 1907. This date is not confirmed by documentation. No amount of persistence has helped to locate her and her husband in the 1910 census; however, records do show that the couple was living in Louisiana when their son, Augustus Chapman Boone Jr., was born in 1912.  In 1916, they left Louisiana for Marion County, Texas. By 1920, Alice Corinne, along with her husband and son, were living in Mineola, Wood County, Texas. 



Newspapers.com
The Bienville Democrat
Arcadia, Louisiana 05 May 1921





In May of 1921, Alice Corinne, Augustus, their son, and infant babies (twins) visited Mr. and Mrs. George R. Boone in Bienville Parish. It appears that they may have stayed in Louisiana as on July 18, 1921, Alice Corinne died in a sanitarium in Shreveport after an appendectomy.  It was reported that her twin babies died after nursing as they became infected as well. Her burial place is unknown.
