Howard,
Virgie, and Margie Hoye - Contributed by Jacquelyn
Erhard Bean - Jacquelyn says, "The 3 children are 'Bama
and Samuel's children: Howard, Virgie and Margie Hoye. Howard
was my grandfather and led an interesting life. After his tour
of duty in the Balloon Corp in the Army in WWI, he went to a
"butcher school" held by Armour Meat Packing in Dallas.
After roaming about the south for a number of years, he and
his wife, Jewel Barker (of Hallsville), settled in Lake Charles,
LA where he opened his own business: Hoye's Market. He quickly
became the chief supplier of the ships' galleys that anchored
in the port of Lake Charles. Howard's sister, Virgie, married
Fred Power, who also went into the meat business and who learned
the trade from his father-in-law, Samuel Hoye. Fred set up his
business on "the old north side" of Marshall.
He and Virgie bought a house on N. Washington, which was sold
in the 1970's and is now known as "The Three Oaks"
Bed and Breakfast. Margie grew up to be quite a character! Almost
everyone knew her and to not know her, well, let's just say
those folks missed out on a wonderfully eccentric lady that
collected just about anything imaginable! She married a fellow
by the name of Lee Howell who was gifted in woodworking. They
never had children, but she "adopted" many. All of
the Hoyes are buried in Algoma Cemetery along with their spouses
and some of their children." |

Kuykendall,
Susan Emily Kuykendall - Contributed by Jacquelyn
Erhard Bean - Jacquelyn says, "She is the daughter
of my 2nd great grandfather, Montreville Lafayette Kuykendall
and his wife, Mary Lou Aycock. Emily (as she was called) married
a scoundrel who "took her to the wilds of Wyoming"
and where he deserted her. She died destitute at the age of
24. Her body was brought back to Texas and she is buried in
the Gum Springs Cemetery." |
Livingston
Family - David & Katherine - Ca 1895 - Contributed by
Elnora Lloyd League
- David Wilson Livingston m: Catherine Ann "Katie B"
Brown on 07 Dec 1875 in Harrison Co., TX. They lived in the
Hallsville area most of their life. They had 8 children, 3 died
young. Pictured here are Annie Brown Livingston b: 08 Oct 1880;
Alma Kate Livingston, b: 30 Jan 1885; Mary Nola Livingston,
b: 18 Jan 1888; and Bennie Bell Livingston, b: 17 Apr 1891.
The oldest, Lida Gregg Livingston (b: 08 Aug 1875) married in
1895, so we "assume" this picture was after or about
that time. Katie suffered from arthritis for many years, as
noted in the picture by her crippled hands. |
Livingston,
Sarah Della "Duck" & Twins - no date - Contributed
by Elnora Lloyd League
- She married Vanderbilt Wyatt, to them was born one son Aubry
Wyatt, I know nothing of him or his whereabouts- The course
of love did not run smooth between Van and Duck. They ended
up in the Divorce Court. Duck later married a Mr. Bassett. Two
children, James and Emma who died in their teens.”
The babies in the picture are probably the James and Emma mentioned
above. We had not, until now, known who they were. Duck and
John Bassett did have another son, Lake Perry Bassett, who married
Lorraine Walker, but I have no info on her. Lake is buried in
Old Grover Cemetery with his parents. |

and was taken around 1910. From the names on the back, the man
standing on the left, holding his hat, is Hard Leath. The man
sitting in the chair on the left is William Henry "Will"
Smelley and he is holding son William Henry "Willie"
Smelley. The lady standing to the right just behind Will is
his wife Tennie Lea "Mamma Smelley" Huffman Smelley.
If you can help identify any others in this picture, contact
Renee. |
Margurite
(Catherine Margurite "Katie" Hall Livingston?) - Contributed
by Elnora Lloyd League
- We are not "positive" who this is. We have two ladies
with the same name, but we tend to "think" this is
Catherine Margurite "Katie" Hall who married Henry
Clay Livingston, about 1867. She was b: 27 Nov 1849 and d: Abt.
1914. The caption on the picture was only "Margurite."
If anyone knows this to be a fact, please let us know. |
