| 1 | "The historical record roll of Co. E, 15th Alabama Infantry Regiment shows James Lammon, Private, enlisted in the Confederate Army August 3, 1862 at Newton (formerly Westville) Alabama. He was honorably discharged from the service on the 13th day of April 1865. The James Lammon family moved from the Barnes X Roads in 1893 to settle in Geneva County. They spent the first year in what was known as the Kinsaul Community and in 1894 they bought land and moved to Hartford, where they cleared land and farmed. Later they organized a milling company and operated sawmills, planer mills, a variety shop, gristmill and a cotton gin. They were a busy family and attended church about two miles from their home, the Pondtown Methodist, until the town grew enough to build and support one, which was only a few years." "The first time real tragedy struck in the family was in 1902 when their 20-year-old son, James Olin, died suddenly. He is buried in the Pondtown Methodist Church Cemetery. In 1906 a beautiful two-story home was built of choice timbers saved over the years for this purpose. The outstanding feature of the home was the wide veranda all around the house with decorative woodwork and banisters. Another tragedy of the family was when the home and practically all of the furnishings were completely destroyed by fire March 31, 1911." ---Sadie Lammon Johnson Irene Lammon Hardwick Avis Lammon Atkinson | Lammon, James Daniel (I33)

| 14 | "Daniel Carlie McEachern, at birth, was named Washington McEachern, and he is so listed in the 1850 census, which was taken when he was 4 months old. Sometime after that, he was renamed Daniel Carlie. Some members of the family think he was also renamed Daniel McColsky at some point in his life. This could not be verified. However, it is known that he used Daniel Carlie as his legal name all his adult life. Daniel Carlie was known to be fond of small children, particularly those of the black farm workers. The black children were called "Pickaninnies" in those days, and his liking them led to Daniel Carlie's nickname, "Uncle Pick." He was fondly called by this nickname the rest of his life--by friends and relatives alike. Throughout his life, "Uncle Pick" remained a bachelor, despite his love for children. It is said that as a teenager, "Uncle Pick" was in love with a young lady but the courtship turned into an unfortunate affair, which turned him against marriage." "As he grew older, "Uncle Pick" remained active in the management of his farm, and was in fairly good health. He eventually developed a kidney problem, and also was bothered by a small murmur from the mitral valve in his heart. Although these problems only bothered him at times, they were more serious than he thought, and "Uncle Pick" eventually called for assistance from his doctor. On Thursday, March 18, 1926, Dr. J.W. Beasley arrived to examine "Uncle Pick." He duly noted the kidney problem and the mitral valve murmur, but saw no cause for alarm. However, at 7 p.m. Monday, March 22, 1926, just after he had eaten supper, "Uncle Pick" suffered a sudden fatal heart attack. He was buried at Thurston Cemetery.

| 19 | "Mary Jane Gould is fondly called the "Pope of St. Matthias" by parishioners. From the day she joined St. Matthias in the early 1950s, Mary Jane was "front and center," not only in the pew in which she and her husband Jake chose to sit every Sunday but in her total immersion in St. Matthias' activities. She actively served in the Altar Guild, in the New Church Building Committee, and in the Woman's Guild. She organized those who spent hours creating the needlepoint altar-rail kneeling pads and actually did one herself. She was the instigator and the backbone of the Smorgasbord, the annual luncheon just before Lent which offers the community a "taste" of the cuisine produced by the great cooks of St. Matthias. Above all else, she exemplifies the meaning of Christian love and spirit and inspires all who know her. This book is a small recognition for all she has been to us and the community to which she has contributed so much."

| 21 | (Following is a letter written to the Clan Lamont Society by Frank Lammons, who was a Clan Lamont chief in 1950) 333 Eleanor Avenue, San. Antonio, Texas, 78209 December 1965 "Dear Friends, In accordance with an age-old custom, another year has slipped by, and it's now time for me to take pen in hand to write you a Christmas letter, to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and to tell you what I have been doing during the past twelve months." "My activities have been confined to the San Antonio area, as well as elsewhere. Last Christmas, after mailing you a Christmas letter, I took a train trip from that Texas town on the Rio Grande, known so well by thousands of TV listeners (so often the hottest town in the United States)--Presidio, Texas--to the Gulf of Lower California to a port named Popolobampo, hard by Los Mochis. It is a thrilling train ride over a recently constructed track laid across and through the Sierra Madre Mountains, built by Swiss engineers, with seventy-odd tunnels that were necessary in order to cross the rough mountain chain. The trip was made in comfortable Pullman cars, with a modern diner. I was entertained in modern hotels in Los Mochis and Chihuahua City at most reasonable prices." "Early in June I boarded the good old Queen Mary bound for Europe. For the next sixty days I traveled over five thousand miles by sight-seeing buses from London to Greece, via Germany, France, Italy, Switzerland, Greece, Yugoslavia, Austria, Holland, and finally a swing into Scotland to visit the Highlands and my kin there; then I flew to New York and went on to Chautauqua, New York, to join my sister at that most interesting institution for the remainder of the summer." "Now I am traveling southwards to spend Christmas holidays in Old Mexico (for the fourth consecutive year). My first stop will be in the quaint colonial town of San Miguel de Allende (200 miles north of Mexico City), a place where life moves slowly, where no one hurries or drops off with heart trouble. After a short stay, I'll move on to the best-illuminated city for a holiday week I have yet seen. Our Mexican neighbors spend the Holy Week celebrating the birth of the Savior, not in the revelries incident to the arrival of Santa Claus. They do a magnificent job of it If you want to take part in a colorful, lively Christmas week then travel down to Mexico, mix with the people in their celebration, and spend a few days in the great world city of Mexico" "I am enjoying another year of teaching history of the United States to interested citizens (and foreigners) who want to know about the story of this country. Teaching helps me to keep fit mentally (at least, I think it does), and it keeps me busy for a good part of the year." "This is the report I have to make to you about my activities for 1965. I manage to keep well and happy, although I have to admit that I am aging, but slowly. I wish you all a very merry holiday season, with high hopes that you will keep fit and happy during 1966; and that we will all be around next season to send love and best wishes and et cetera and so forth and cheerios to each other once again Adios, and good luck, always, FRANK B. LAMMONS" | Lammons, Franklin Bishop (I35)

| 22 | (The following article appeared in The Dothan Eagle, date: c. 1993) SEEING A CENTURY 20 Presidents, Two World Wars Have Passed in Her Lifetime EDITOR'S NOTE: Seniors have a lifetime of experiences to share. Each week, The Dothan Eagle profiles a different senior citizen in the Wiregrass. By MATT MOORE Eagle Staff Writer COTTONDALE-A lot of things have happened since Mamie Lammons of Cottondale was born. Twenty different presidents have sat in the White House, two world wars have been waged and mankind has set foot upon the moon. When Ms. Lammons, 101, was born on May 31, 1892, Benjamin Harrison was president, the Spanish-American War of 1898 was six years hence and farmers were flocking to the Wiregrass to make their money in King Cotton, unaware of the impending boll weevil. A native of Georgia, Ms. Lammons has lived there, in Hartford and now Cottondale, but her heart remains true to her native state. "I'm a Georgia girl," she said with a grin. "I was born in Harrison County about six miles from Buchanan." She said the times have changed since she was a little girl, especially the schools that have now become sprawling multi-room campuses that can sometimes have all the problems of inner-city slums, but it wasn't like that when she started school. "I started my schooling at what they called the Flatwood School House. It was a one-room schoolhouse that everyone went to," she said. "We got along pretty good with it I reckon." She explained that all of the kids in the schoolhouse had to sit on their own chairs ("It wasn't seats, more like in a church, "Ms. Lammons said) and each grade sat in its own rows. All in all it was a good arrangement, except when the boys would try to play tricks on the girls, actions that Ms. Lammons recalls with clarity. "Sitting right behind me and my younger sister was a row of boys and girls and there was this boy who pulled my sister's hair," she said. "He would just reach up and grab and pull it." She said she warned him not to do that to her sister anymore, but "he delighted in reaching up and giving her hair a pull. The next time he did it, I just slammed him across the head with my book as hard as a little girl could and he didn't pull her hair anymore," Ms. Lammons said, suppressing a slight chuckle. Ms. Lammons came to Hartford on Jan. 1, 1901 after her father, a farmer, received word that the land was good for growing crops, and he tired of the rocky soil of Harrison County "They had told him how good the land was out there, so he sold out what he had and moved to Alabama," she said. The move introduced her to train travel and egg sandwiches for the first time, and she was quite impressed with both of them. "My father and oldest brother came down on a wagon," she said. "On January 1, me and mama and my two brothers went down by train, it was my first time, and when we stopped at Albany, Ga., it was time for lunch. Of course there weren't any cafes by the train station." Ms. Lammons said the train conductors came through the cars offering sandwiches for sale and she bought an egg salad sandwich. "I've liked them ever since," she said. Now residing in Cottondale with her oldest son Milan, 82, Ms. Lammons said she wouldn't change anything about her life. She had four children, worked in the fields for her father and then her husband, Duncan Lammons, made sure her children received an education and waited anxious nights while her husband was on patrol as the Hartford Police Department's Chief from 1931 until his death in 1951. The secret to her long life, which she said was noted on NBC-TV's "Today Show" by weatherman/personality Willard Scott, on her 101st birthday in May, she said it was simple. "Well, I'll tell you, I've lived a normal life, and I've always been active. I've just always been active," she said. And she has no complaints about the turns her life has given her, including outliving three of her four children and her husband. "I live a good life," she said. "I've had my ups and downs, but so has everybody else." | Hilton, Mamie Evelyn (I167)

| 23 | [The following is thought to have been written by Franklin Bishop Lammons, the family's earliest known researcher of the family ancestry. -- Elmer Lammon] From Mark A. Lammon. John Lammon was born at Barnes Cross Rd., Ala. John served in the Civil War and was wounded in Battle of Seven Pines, Virginia. He returned to Alabama and taught school when he married "Lizzy." Granted Teachers Certificate June 1, 1870 Frances Elisabeth (Lizzy) was raised by her grandmother Highnote in Milton, Fla. until the age of 5 when her father remarried. Her own mother and Frances' twin sister died in August 1852, apparently of an epidemic type illness. John and Frances were married June 16, 1870 by a Methodist minister, Rev. J.W. Parker. They lived near Ozark, Alabama, but later lived from town to town in Alabama as John worked in (operated and owned) sawmills. They had 9 children, six of whom lived. They were Duncan, Daniel, Holcombe, Sanford (Mack) John and Allen. John and Lizzy Lammon were grandparents of Ruth, Inez, Jewett and D.C. Lammon. Of historical interest is a copy of the Southeastern Illustrated News, Vol. II, Richmond, Va., Sept. 12, 1863 which is now in the possession of the Holcombe Lammon family. John brought it home from the Civil War with him as it was printed the week he was coming home on furlough. Parents of Frances Elizabeth McSwain: Frances McSwain's father was Daniel. He came from Scotland to America when he was 13 with his mother and two brothers. They landed somewhere in North Carolina and made their way down to the Ozark, Ala. area.

| 43 | According to Owen Daniel McEachern (grandson): Mary Barton Miller was born in 1860 and she was 20 years old when she fell in love with James Owen. They were married in 1880 and, not long after that, they moved to Pike County, Alabama, where he became a teacher at Blackwood School. There their first two sons were born. With their growing family, James Owen and Mary decided to make a change, and during the latter part of 1885, moved to Dothan, Alabama. James Owen entered into a partnership there with his cousin, Earley Garner, in a hardware business. James Owen also became an administrative assistant to Dothan's first mayor and a few years later became the third mayor of Dothan. In 1892 Mary contracted typhoid fever. She lingered 88 agonizing days and then quietly passed away November 30, 1892. She was buried in the Dothan City Cemetery. | Miller, Mary Bartow (I61)

Then at age 3 weeks, moved by horse and buggy to Brewton, Ala. Furniture was shipped by railroad. Her father went to work as a "lumber tallier". Her mother taught kindergarten school until 1907 when they moved to a farm. Grandma Bailey gave Beatrice as her inheritance in Wicksburg, Ala* some seven miles from Slocomb. Ruth was first educated at home by her mother." "In the winter of 1907 my mother, father and sister Inez and myself moved from Castleberry Ala. to Wicksburg, Ala., a small crossroad village. We came by train to Slocomb, Ala. and were met by my Grandmother's (Bailey) team of horses and carried out to her Plantation about eight miles north of that saw mill town and spent several weeks with her while my grandmother and father got things in shape for us to move into a long house with stickin-dirt chimney. The house had three rooms and a small porch. Within two years we had one of the finest houses in the community--a two-story home our father built. | Lammon, Daniel McColskey (I85)

| 45 | All of the following are from notes and records of Ruth Lammon Bruner Winecoff, courtesy of her son Granger: Aunt of James E. Moore, Jr. "Ruth - Her mother: Beatrice Leonia Bailey Lammon Her father: Daniel McColskey Lammon Her sisters: Inez and Jewett Her brother: D.C. "Ruth was named from Ruth of the Bible and from Beatrice, her own mother. "She was born in Bonifay, Holmes County, Florida, Aug. 2, 1901, where her father was in partnership in the sawmill and monument business. Then, at the age of three weeks, the family moved by horse and buggy to Brewton, Alabama, while their furniture was shipped by railroad. Her father went to work as a "lumber tallier. "Her mother taught kindergarten school until 1907, when they moved to a farm that Grandma Bailey (Josephene) gave Beatrice as her inheritance in Wicksburg, Alabama (7 miles from Slocomb). "In the winter of 1907 my mother's father and sister, Inez, and myself, moved from Castleberry, Alabama, to Wicksburg, Alabama, a small crossroad village. We came by train to Slocomb, Alabama, and were met by my Grandmother Bailey's team of horses and carried out to her Plantation about 8 miles north of that sawmill town. We spent several weeks with her while my Grandmother Bailey and father got things in shape for us to move into a log house with stick-in dirt chimney. The house had 3 rooms and a small piazza (porch), Within 2 years we had one of the finest houses in the community - a two story home our father built." (Quote from Ruth). Until she was nine years old Ruth had not been to school except to visit. She then went to live with Grandma Lammon and Grandpa to attend 9 mo. of her first school in Brewton, Alabama, (Brewton Collegiate Institute). She remembers her first school as having colonial columns and all the "expensive homes She entered the second grade but, when May came, went to Wicksburg and went to the 7th grade there in 1917. She began the 8th grade in Dothan, Alabama, and moved to Graceville during World War I and finished 8th grade. Moved to Brunswick, Georgia, where Papa (her father) worked in shipyard during wartime. Ruth took her first job in Brunswick at age 14 selling hats - her first week she earned $3.50, the next week $7.50, and the next, $10.00. She worked there 8 weeks. She then went to work in a jewelry shop and stayed 1-1/2 days. Ten days later she found a job again, selling hats, and a hat trimmer from Baltimore came in and taught Ruth for 3 months how to make hats. The War ended on Nov. 11th so the family moved back to Graceville. Papa bought a farm in the Graceville, Florida, area and sold the Alabama farm. Since there was no transportation to schools, Ruth went to Hartford to stay with Grandpa and Grandma Lammon (her father's parents.) She was there only two weeks when Grandma got burned. Back to Graceville she went and attended school a little that year. Her appendix ruptured and it had to be removed. The family then moved to Columbus, Georgia, for a year where Ruth and Inez worked in a cotton mill. Ruth ran the machines and sat reading Public Library books. She read every book the library had by Augusta J. Evans, one of her favorite authors and the author of the novel, "Inez". She then went to Dothan and entered the10th grade and completed it and part of the 11th grade at Slocomb. Ruth then journeyed to Hartford and worked for a lady who owned a hat shop, for one year without pay - for experience. The owner of the shop decided to sell Ruth half interest in the hat shop, so when Ruth was only 20 she borrowed money to go into business. She went to Atlanta, Georgia, for six weeks of training under a hat trimmer there. After she dissolved [the] partnership in Hartford. She moved to Slocomb and opened her own hat shop while living with Grandma Bailey. She was there from 1921 - 1925. She moved to Graceville and opened a hat and dress shop in 1926. On March 31, 1928 she married Addis Lee Bruner of Cottonwood, Alabama, in Dothan, Alabama. (A judge married them, with Inez as only family witness). She kept the shop in operation in Graceville until 1938. In 1928 she gave birth to a premature baby boy (a six month term baby) who died. In 1932 (July 18) Ruell Granger Bruner was born in Graceville. He was named for his Grandmother Bruner who had been a Granger). In 1938 Ruth opened her own dress shop in DeFuniak Springs, Florida. Addis was still farming and the depression years had been hard on him. In 1944 she divorced Addis. She bought half interest in the DeFuniak Hotel (DeFuniak Springs, Florida) in 1944 and the next year bought the other half interest and continued to operate the dress shop, too. In 1946 she sold the dress shop and the following year she bought the Monroe Inn in Tallahassee. In 1948 she married C.L. Winecoff and divorced him the next year. After he licked his problem of drinking they remarried in 1956. In 1951 she sold the Monroe Inn to Jewett and moved back to the DeFuniak Hotel. In 1951 she bought a restaurant in Niceville and operated it a year. In 1954 she bought the Walton Hotel and operated it until Feb. 1959, when it was demolished. Her son Granger used lumber and brick from it to construct the new Colonial Inn restaurant and lounge in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida. In 1954 the Lammon sisters had jointly bought Silver Sands Cottages in Destin, Florida, and then sold Jewett their interest. Ruth built two rental houses in Destin in the late 1950's. Ruth's eyes had been impaired in the early months of her life when measles settled in them and left them extremely weak. It did not stop her from reading - an avid reader, she still delights in reading anything she can get her hands on, especially history. Talented with her hands, she can create flower arrangements or tables of food that rival the most experienced florist and caterer. She is a Bible student among other things. A story about Ruth, written by Ruth while in grammar school. RUTH, A SCOTCH LASSIE Ruth, a Scotch lassie, entered this world In the county site of Holmes County In the Land of Flowers. This event, of which I had nothing to do, Occurred in the sultry month of August And in the year President McKinley was assassinated. "Being the first granddaughter on both sides, so much love was lavished on her as any one baby could well get along with. And by some quaint ancestral notions missed what most babies get, such as catnip teas, toddies, sugar tits and pacifiers. Her name is Ruth Beatrice, this last in honor of her mother and the former from the Biblical story (and as it is said, it is all in a name). From her youth up she has been building a foundation that will enable her to make her life worth while. As "lives of great men all remind us that we too can make our lives sublime." *When Ruth meets Boaz she will ask, "Why have you found grace in my eyes". Some lines of poetry written by Ruth in her childhood: "Love is like an onion We taste it with delight But when it is gone we Wonder what made us bite." | Lammon, Ruth Beatrice (I249)

| 46 | Among pictures and other clippings lent to me by Alyce and Sara Marlow was the following poem, typewritten -- Elmer Burns Lammon: Uncle Joe's gone now And the South Forty ain't kept. There's a bunch of pine straw on the roof, And the yards ain't swept. There's some bent nails need fixin', And that old swing kinda needs him too. Some straw to burn in the sewer, And his walking stick that's anything but new. We never went to his house That he didn't say, "Y'all just consider this home." We'd sit and talk about the "Cubians", Then he'd be up and gone; I guess checking on the south Forty, Or the new road they built near the house. Then he'd come back in real easy. He could be quiet as any mouse. He had some funny eating habits, And Mama would get mighty mad To uncover the leftovers on the table And see a spoon of pie he'd had. "My Eyes", he'd say, "ain't what they usta be, I can hardly see from one line to the other," Then held take up the Montgomery Advertiser And read it from cover to cover. There's some pecans out there on the ground That wouldn't be there if he were here, no doubt. He loved his pecans and their trees. And too-he loved his oak trees dear. We were on the front porch talking, And he pointed out a large oak across the way He told me how and when he'd planted it The month- the year -the day. Uncle Joe stayed on for a long time, And he seemed always easy-never with force. Then that day came, like it will, And he had to go ride his "Old Black Horse". And that was just about the way Uncle Joe was And he wouldn't have changed for anything, He just had his ways-and in that way, no doubt, He was as happy as any king. I could go on and on with this And tons of words could never say, All there is to tell about Uncle Joe. So in closing, if you will, let us pray: Dear God, please take Uncle Joe And his ways some people don't understand. Lead him easy, and he'll go with you, By your gentle, mighty hand. He'll work as hard as anyone, No matter what there is to do. He always seemed to like to work And we're sure he'll work for you. He'll be real glad to see his Carol and Beatrice, And others there that we don't know. Please take good care of him, dear God He was our only Uncle Joe. -- Edward L. Atkinson | Fields, Joseph Spencer (I138)
