5	September bids fair to quite outrival June as the month of weddings this year. But six days of the month are gone and there has been a wedding for each day. One of the prettiest of the six was that solemnized at the beautiful country home of Mr. and Mrs. William Heimforth of Elmwood towship yesterday forenoon at 10:30 when their daughter Miss Elizabeth was married to David Minsker of Detroit, Rev. W. J. Coates of the Asburn M.E. church officiating. It was an outdoor wedding the ceremony taking place on the broad veranda of the home. Early fall flowers, dahlias, gladiolas, and asters in all their beautiful coloring were used profusely. The full ring service was used and the attendants were Miss May Robinson and Fred Heinforth. Following the ceremony, wedding was served to the bridal party and guests. Many wedding gifts including cut glass, silver, china and linens were testaments of the high regard in which the young people are held by friends. They left in the afternoon for Detroit where they will make their home. Source: Traverse City (MI) Record-Eagle, September 6, 1912	Family: F1346

16	Researchers have been delving into the records of the Cox family of Virginia and Kentucky, and these records strongly suggest, with little room for doubt, that a woman by the name of Elizabeth Cox was the second wife of George Mansker, Jr., son of George Sr. and grandson of Ludwig Maintzger. The name of George Jr.'s first wife is unknown; several children were born of his first marriage in the 1790's, and he married Elizabeth Cox around 1807. Elizabeth Cox was born around 1788, according to one record, and around 1784 according to another, and she died after 1854 in Arkansas. She was the daughter of John and Sarah Nunally Cox. John Cox was a Revolutionary War veteran from Henry County, Virginia, where, according to county histories, he took the Oath of Allegiance to the Commonwealth of Virginia in the infancy of the United States. Source: The Man from Mainz, Vol V, #2, Winter 90-91 There is a mystery, however. George and Elizabeth's youngest daughter, Rebecca, married J. P. Ingram and is buried in the Ingram Cemtery. Here is her tombstone inscription from the Ingram Cemetery, Maynard, Arkansas (available online at http://freepages.history.rootsweb.com/~randolph/ingram.html) Ingram, Rebecca (Mansker) dau of George & Elizabeth (Birdaux) wife of James P died 27 Jun 1888 age 77 yrs 3 mos 21 days This would seem to establish that Elizabeth's last name was "Birdaux" but this appears to be impossible. Did George Jr. marry a third time just before his death? That would have meant a divorce from Elizabeth, and there are no records of such a divorce. Or was George Jr., like Samuel, involved in more than one woman at a time?	COX Elizabeth

32	J. N. and Marjorie were married in California and had two daughters, believed to have been born in Amarillo. They lived in Virginia Beach, VA in 1966, where J. N. taught at Dam Neck Training Center, Virginia Beach. They later moved to Washington, D. C. They moved back to Amarillo after retirement and were living in the Lake Tanglewood community between Amarillo and Canyon when J. N. died. I spoke to Majorie by phone in September 1999. She lives in Ware Retirement Community (Continental Towers), Amarillo, Texas. J. N. was a submariner in WWII. I remember stories about his submarine slipping into the Japanese harbor through net opening and emerging to observe activity during the night. --Frances Quisenberry	HUDSON J. N.

34	Lester was in the army in World War II. He did duty in Burma, driving the hazardous Burma Road with supplies and troops. He moved his family to Amarillo, Texas from Memphis, Texas in 1939, where he worked as a barber in his brother's barber shop for many years before opening his own shop. His body is interred in Llano Cemetery, Amarillo, Texas next to his wife Iona, son Larry Gene and near his brother Leamon and other close relatives.	HUDSON Lester Truitt
35	Lonnie moved to Childress, Texas from Eastland County, where he established a barber shop. He brought his mother, Edna and brothers to Childress where his brothers, Leamon and Lester worked as barbers for him, and the younger brother, John shined shoes in the shop. Later he worked for the Ford car dealership selling cars. He was a member of the First Baptist Church and Elks Lodge 1113 in Childress.	HUDSON Lonnie Lee
36	Roy died at the young age of 33 during the flu epidemic of the winter of 1919. He was a farmer. He had gone to town for supplies and while there witnessed the shooting death of a friend. He apparently contacted the flu virus in town, taking it back to the farm and his family. They were extremely ill. The doctor thought his wife was dying, wrote him a note stating that fact and according to a family legend, Roy Manual crumpled the note and died (January 12, 1919), leaving his wife and four young sons.	HUDSON Roy Manual
37	After death of his Dad (he was 11 years old), the family couldn't continue farming alone and moved in with his grandparents. At times children were shuffled between relatives but mostly stories told by Leamon were fond memories while with grandparents. He said he'd come in from the fields or hunting and was famished. His Grandmother would always have biscuits in the warming drawer of the kitchen range. When returning home from rabbit hunting with his dog one day, he heard the lonely whistle of a train and knew right then that he was going to leave the farm. At age 17 or 18 he was living with his Uncle Johnnie and Aunt Zelda Hudson in Amarillo, Texas. They lived second door to the Throckmorton's. He said the first time he saw his wife, Jewel, she was singing in the choir at the Second Baptist Church and he knew right then that some day he would marry that pretty girl. They were married when she was 17 and he was 19. His nickname for her was "Jill". They remained married for 68 years before his death. After marriage, they moved to Childress, Texas, where they lived with his mother and he barbered for his brother, Lonnie, for a few years before they decided to move back to Amarillo. He worked for the Rock Island Railroad for awhile, but decided to begin barbering again as an employee until he could save enough money to put in his own shop. During the depression he said there were weeks he would only make a quarter. Haircuts were done on credit then. The family lived in one-half of Jewel's parents house and everyone shared in what they had to pay bills and buy food.	HUDSON Willie Leamon
38	According to family tradition, John, ostensibly a dairy farmer, was one of the biggest bootleggers in the Muskogee area during & after Prohibition. He always drove a new car and had plenty of cash in the worst of the depression.	HUMPHREY John

43	From the History of Randolph County, Arkansas, by Lawrence Dalton, 1946: The Ingram family of Randolph County is descended from James P. and Rebecca Mansker Ingram. James P. Ingram was born in Virginia in 1800, and his wife in 1811. He came to this county in 1824, settling on a farm near the present site of the Ingram cemetery, on the old Military road between Maynard and Supply. Here he lived until his death in 1874. James P. Ingram was an influential and prosperous citizen. He served in various official capacities for may years, being the county's fourth county judge. James P. and Rebecca Mansker Ingram were the parents of of 11 children. Among these were G. H. (Dock), Lurana, who married W. P. G. (Green) Johnston; Leddie B., who married Henderson H. Hatley; Hannah, who died at 20 years of age, and J. W. (Blind Bill). Mrs. Hatley was the mother of Mrs. Josie Lamb, mother of the author's wife. The father of Rebecca Ingram was George Mansker, who came to Randolph County from Sumner county, Tennessee, in 1817, settling on the creek which bears the family name, just north of Pocahontas. Governor Thomas S. Drew was born in Wilson county, Tennessee, a few miles from the Mansker home and the families were intermarried before coming to this county. The children of George and Elizabeth Mansker were Sarah, Margaret, nancy, John, Casper, George, Coleman, Jackson, William, Catherine and Rebecca (Mrs. Ingram). Sarah married John Fisher, Margaret married Matthias Mock, Nancy married King fisher, Coleman married Martha Mitchell, Catherine married Carlton Lindsey and Rebecca married James P. Ingram. Who the other married is not known. J. W. (known for many years as Uncle Blind Bill) Ingram was born May 8, 1839. He married another Rebecca Mansker (same name as his mother), a relative of his mother's family, April 12, 1857. He was 18 years of age at the time. Among the children of this marriage were: Elizabeth, who married William Smith; Martha, who married William Jolly; Sarah, who married Robert Johnson; L. V., who married Benjamin Phipps, and William, who married Tennie Pond. William and Mrs. Johnson are still living in Texas, at this time. Mrs. Jolly was the mother of Joe Jolly of Supply; Claude of St. Louis; Mrs. E. Brown of Corning; Walter, Roy and the late Judge Rex E. Jolly, the last three deceased. Uncle Bill Ingram's second wife was Josie Mock, a granddaughter of Matthias Mock referred to above. Top this union was born the following who lived to maturity: Rufus G., who died in early manhood; Thomas F. and J. R. G. (Bob). Uncle Bill married Miss Mock October 9, 1870. She died December 28, 1883. Mary P. Kerley Tilley became his third wife April 10, 1884. To this union several children were born, only one of which grew up. This was Lura Dean, who is the wife of Will Redwine of Maynard. The third Mrs. Ingram had previously married William Tilley and was the mother of three children, one of which was Tom Tilley, now residing near Maynard. Tom Tilley is the father of Earle Tilley, present county tax assessor. Thomas F. Ingram married Cina Brown, member of an early Little Black township family. To this union was born the following children now living: T. F. Jr., who married Opal Simmons; Beulah, who married Clarence Fowler; and Ruth, who married Hite Hogan. T. F. and Beulah reside in the county and Ruth lives in St. Louis. Mr. Ingram died in 1943. Mrs. Ingram lives in the old family home. J. R. G. (Bob) Ingram married Eliza Fowler, daughter of Rev. Alex and Belle Rapert Fowler. Uncle Alex was oneof the pioneer preachers of the Supply community. The children of this union are: Gertrude, who married Less E. Allen, son of W. R. Allen, for many years a merchant and cotton buyer of Supply; Erman, who married Winnie Crawford, member of a prominent Missouri family. Erman is assitant manager of the Midwest branch of International Harvester Company, at Quincy, Illinois; Josie, wife of Roger Wills of Little Rock. Josie teaches in the Pulaski county schools; Flecta, who married Troy Cockrum. Tory is the son of Henry and the late Ganie Taylor cockrum of Supply. They live at Maynard. Oscar, married Dera Ford of Pocahontas. He is associated with Baltz Hardware Company. Eula, the youngest daughter, lives with her parents, and is a member of the Maynard schood faculty, and Curtis O. of Pocahontas. Curtis married Laura Morris, daughter of E. L. Morris. Mrs. Ingram's paternal ancestors, the Morris, Montgomery and Gill families, were pioneers of Adair count, Kentucky. They came into that section over the old Wilderness road with the first settlers. Her maternal ancestors were the Suttons, Wheelers and Camers, who have benn residents of Pike county, Illinois, for over a century. Mr. and Mrs. Ingram were married in 1918, just before Curt went overseas to serve in World War I. They are the parents of four children: Purcell, who served in the late war as M. P. with the Sixth Service Command; Eileen and Beverly at home, and Yvonne, who married James Randell. Other members of the family of Uncle blind Bill Ingram who served in World War II are: Loren Jolly, who served as chaplain in the Pacific area; Burford Jolly, who was with General Patton, in a railway battalion; Raymond Brown, who participated in the African, Italian, French and German campaigns, being awarded the Silver Star; Beverly Ingram, who served through the New Guinea, Morotai and Philippine campaigns, taking part in four major battles. Beverly is a brother of Purcell named above. The Ingram family has long been identified with the business and political history of the county. Uncle Bill and his brother G. H. (Dock), operated cotton gins for many years in the eastern part of Randolph county. Their brother-in-law, Green Johnston was also a cotton gin operator, and the same in true of another brother-in-law, Henderson Hatley and his brother, Albert Hatley. The present generation still operate a gin. Uncle Bill Ingram joined the Confederate Army and served first under Col. Robert G. Shaver. Later he was with General Price in his raid through Missouri. In the floor of the old home near Supply was a trap door which opened into the basement which was used by Mr. Ingram when he was home on furlough, if the Yankees got too close. It is said that he escaped being captured several times in this manner. The old home stood until recently. The first wife of Uncle Bill took her mother-in-law (the wife of James P. Ingram) and a Negro boy and drove an ox wagon from the old home to Cape Girardeau, Missouri, during the war, crossing Federal lines, to secure medical supplies for the community. Uncle Bill lost his eyesight in January 1873, on account of erysipelas, which was first contracted while attending the wounded on the battlefields, and throughout the remainder of his life carried on activities which many persons with good eyes did not venture to do. He was a large landowner and a benefactor to many people in the eastern part of the county. The story is told that any time misfortune and hardship overtook a family Uncle Bill was one of the first to ride over to "see what needed to be done". He possibly had as many friends at the time of his death as any man who ever lived in Randolph county. He died in 1917 at the age of 77.

47	From Biographical and Historical Memoirs of Northeast Arkansas, The Goodspeed Publishing Co., 1889, Randolph County, p. 400-401: J. W. Ingram is a substantial farmer and miller of the county, and as such deserves honorable mention in these pages. As he was born in this county, May 8, 1839, the people have had every opportunity to judge his character, and he was won the conficences and esteem of all. He is a son of James P. and Rebecca (Mansker) Ingram, the former having been born in Virginia, February 5, 1800, and the latter in Tennessee, March 6, 1811. James P. Ingram was removed by his father to Kentucky in 1805, and there remained until 1824 when he was removed to Randolph County, Ark., and settled on what is now known as the Old Ingram Farm, on the military road, six miles southwest of Pitman's Ferry. Here he lived from 1834 until he died, August 12, 1874, at the age of seventy-four years. His widow resided on the farm for fifty-three years, and died on the 27th of June, 1888, at the age of seventy-seven years, three months and twentyh-one days. She came with her parents to this state in 1817, and lacked only a short time of having lived here seventy years. Mr. Ingram was an industrious agriculturist, and accumulated property to the amount of 1,000 acres of land. He served as a constable eight years, justice of the peace six years, and judge four years. He was married on the 12th of April, 1825, his wife being only a little over fourteen years of age at that time. Their family consisted of eleven children, the following being those who are now living: G. H., a farmer of this county; Leddie B., wife of H. H. Hatley; and J. W. Those deceased are Lurana, wife of W. P. G. Johnston, and Hannah F., who died at the age of twenty years; the rest died in childhood or infancy. J. W. Ingram commenced life for himself at the age of eighteen years, and was married then to Miss Rebecca M. Mansker, their union taking place on the 12th of April, and to them the following children have been born: M. E., wife of W. C. Smith of this county; Martha R., wife of William Jolly, of this county; W. G. C.; Sarah L., wife of Robert G. Johnston, being those living; a d L. V. J., the deceased wife of Benjamin Phipps, and Mary L., who is also deceased, having been the wife of F. M. Ezell. Mrs. Ingram was born October 18, 1830, and is now no more, having passed to her long home April 25, 1870. Our subject's second union took place October 9, 1870, his wife's maiden name being Josie C. Mock, of this county. Five of their children died when small, and three are now living: R. G. C., who was born September 2, 1883; T. F., born May 17, 1875; and J. R., born March 22, 1887. The mother of these children died on the 28th of December, 1883, having been a consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and her husband espoused his third wife, Mrs. Mary P. (Kerley) Tilley, on the 10th of April 1884, Laura Dean, who was born on the 10th of April 1885 being the only one of their children who is now living. Mrs. Ingram's first union took place on the 2d of July, 1871, and she bore her husband three children: Sarah L., born December 10, 1872, and Thomas J., born August 3, 1877, being the only ones living. Mr. Tilley was born in Tennessee, and died on the 12th of February, 1882, having been a member of the Missionary Baptist Church. While serving in the Confederate Army he lost all the fingers of one of his hands, and was discharged from the service. Mr. Ingram, the subject of this sketch, also served in the Confederate Army, joining Company I, Shaver's Regiment, on the 8th of August, 1863. He surrendered at Jacksonport, Ark., June 5, 1865, having been with Price on his raid in Missouri. During this time he lost all his property except his land; but this he returned to, and began to improve, erecting in 1869 a cotton-gin, which he continued to operate until 1878, when it was burned to the ground. The loss is estimated at $3,500. On the 17th of January, 1873, he was taken ill with erysipelas and by the 21st of that month he had lost his eye sight. He is a wealthy farmer, owning 1,100 acres of land, with some 248 acres under improvement. He has a steam cotton-gin, seventy head of cattle, twelve head of horses and mules, and numerous other domestic animals. Although blind, this does not deter him from work, and he can readily bind wheat and oats, feed a threshing machine or steam cotton-gin. He is a member of the A. F. & A. M. , and is a Democrat. He and his wife are church members, he belonging to Methodist and wife to the Baptist Church.
