I saw Daddy this weekend and had him quickly glance over the site and he asked me if I had this story that PaPa related to him. I told Daddy that although I had heard the story before that I did not think it could be true because Weaver was in Llano Co, then moved to Ennis with the family, then as far as I could determine was married about age 18 and did not think the timeline of <em>left home at (age) 16</em> could fit, but actually it does work so here is the story. On the tape Weaver talks about that he left home at age 16. On the property that his family had there was a piece of "bottom land" that could not be planted as it would "wash out" all the time. (See this could not have been Llano too well due to the land conditions). His Father, Tom, told him he could have the little section of land to plant a crop on and if it made anything the profits would be his. Weaver planted some cotton and the area did not wash out and he was able to get a couple of bales to market. With the money he left home and went to the Dallas area.<br /><br />Now, the story works if the area in question is Ennis. It also goes along with the early reported photo of Weaver of about age 16 and his hair is parted in the middle and he seems to have a nice new suit on.<br /><br />Weaver could have accomplished all this AND get back to Ennis to time to marry Elsie and later Jessie.<br /><br />So now, I just gotta prove was it Ennis? or did he actually plant cotton in Llano?Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-17707638643426826362007-08-17T00:18:00.000-05:002007-08-20T20:10:55.646-05:00Ethel Jean Hickman BlueMother was name Ethel, after her beloved Grandmother, Ethel Clara/Claire Austin Ham and Jean Harlow. Grandmother Gertrude loved watching glamerous actress Jean Harlow on the movie screen.<br /><br />After I was born Mother and Grandmother took me to the nursing home where Grandmother Ham had been confined after a stroke. After seeing me and Mother, Grandmother Ham said she had to get out of there so she could take care of me. Grandmother Barton (Gertrude) told her not to worry about it 'cause "Jean takes care of that baby better than you did us"!<br /><br />Grandmother Ham passed away a short time later in 1953 and is buried in Colfax LA.<br /><br />Mother told me how sad she was to see her beloved Grandmother in the nursing home; they had shaved her head because of an outbreak of lice in the facility. I don't know if that meant she had NO hair or it had grown back in some and was that ugly shaggy stage or what.<br /><br />Why is it we never ask the really important questions we would like answered until our loved ones are gone?

He was certainly a very handsome young man and in some of the pictures there was a lovely young woman. The pictures did not name of the young lady on the back. They made a very attractive couple! Buster joined the military and was out of Mother's life for many years. After many years overseas, he retired and returned to the states. He also somehow hooked up with an old girlfriend and they married. When telling me about his new wife; when Mother said she (Rita) was <strong>THE GIRL</strong> in the pictures! I knew instantly who she was! I'll have to get Rita to tell me the story of how they met again and fell in love all over again! Immediately upon meeting Rita you get the feeling you've know her all your life, that's the kind of person she is.Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-47113301327518713372007-08-16T23:57:00.000-05:002007-08-20T20:14:51.354-05:00Life With Weaver...Since PaPa Hickman worked in the cafe all the time there was little semblence of a structured life for Mother. PaPa did not put his money in banks and Mother recounted the story that it was nothing to play with thousands of dollars (her estimation)on the bed. If she, or Buster wanted anything they just tookthe money they thought they needed and went and "got it" or "did it". She said they never wasted the money and took just enough for whatever it was they were doing. Mother said she "loved Dorothy" and idolized her brother Buster. Of Mose Dumas, Dorothy's husband, she said he was "SO handsome" and she must have had a young girl crush on him". Once time when we were visiting Dorothy, and me being a "picture with big ears", Mother and Dorothy were talking about this very thing! Mother was telling Dorothy about her crush on Mose and his being so handsome and Dorothy laughing and telling Mother, she always thought Wayne was SO handsome! <em>Sisters!</em>Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-78201052641523866112007-08-16T23:39:00.001-05:002007-08-20T20:17:30.173-05:00Fact or Fable 2?Marie tell a story that her Mother (Gertrude) told her. At one time Gertrude feared for her life and she believed that Weaver was behind it, that in fact he planned to get rid of her. The story goes...Weaver sent Gertrude to pick up a gun that someone had for him. It was supposed to be "his" gun. The man lived way out in the boonies and ran a ramshackle bar. When Gertrude arrived she was afraid and would not get out of the car. She honked the horn and the man came out. She told him who she was and why she was there and he said yes, he did have gun and that she would have to come in and get it. She refused and when he went back in to get it she sped off in her car. She had been terrified that Weaver had sent her there for the man to kill her. When she confronted Weaver about it back in town he supposedly just laughed at her. It was not long after that incident that she was reading a newspaper about a man being arrested for killing people and feeding them to the gators he had out back of his bar. She either recognized the man or the location or something about it being the place or maybe she just <em>FELT</em> it was the same person.Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-70543186325676811342007-08-16T23:33:00.000-05:002007-08-16T23:38:12.934-05:00"Frenchy" & HamburgersIf you have a cafe and you are always at work and you have children, quess where you would take some, if not all, of your meals? Mother (Jean) said they did eat at home too but Frenchy was the cook and he hated to cook hamburgers. I guess to his way of thinking they were not real food. Mother said he would cuss a blue streak and throw a fit every time he had to make one! Guess what Mother liked to eat??!!Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-50963212605126729022007-08-16T21:48:00.000-05:002007-08-16T23:09:49.787-05:00Fact or Fable? Weaver HickmanIn his eariler days Papa Hickman had been a constable (a form or law enforcement) or a sheriff and no stranger to "getting the job done". We have PaPa Hickman on audio tape talking about chasing criminals etc. I also have an audio tape with James Ham (Gertrudes brother) and he tells of a story that occurred in a little town not far from San Antonio in which PaPa Hickman either murdered a man and set a fire to cover it up OR he let the man die purposely in the fire. This story has been around awhile and I believe that it was Aunt Dorothy who asked her father about it and he would never discuss it. James Ham was not only a brother-in-law to Weaver, he was also a long time friend and also worked with him in the cafes at times. Mother (Jean) and I were always intrigued with this story and intended to check it out on a little road trip. I'll have to get the tape out and listen to it again and possibly take a little trip!Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-9685979278827914882007-08-16T20:53:00.000-05:002007-08-20T20:21:32.742-05:00Weaver's Eye For The LadiesOne time Grandmother and I were talking about PaPa and about him being a ladies man. She related that it was not uncommon for a young waitress to come to her and say that Mr. Hickman said that could not work there if she did not sleep with him. Grandmother said she would tell that young girl not to worry about it, she (the waitress) did not have to do that and that he was not going to let her go and that she (Grandmother) would take care of it. At which time she would tell him "Now, Mr. Hickman you leave those girls alone...". I got a sense that this was by means an isolated case and in fact Grandmother probably had to combat this frequently and that only counts for the girls that came to her.<br /><br />PaPa always said that Grandmother (Gertrude) was his best worker!Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-73657687324028742432007-08-16T20:04:00.000-05:002007-08-16T23:03:27.825-05:00W. J. Hickman-"PaPa"My daddy worked in Ft Worth for awhile and once he and PaPa Hickman were roomates. Aunt Dorothy and Uncle Mose had a converted garage behind their house which was a cozy apartment for him. He and Daddy would have long conversations about his life, past etc. Or actually they would have long conversations when Daddy would ask questions! In one such conversation PaPa told Daddy that "everything I touched turned to gold". He stated he "never drew a paycheck" except when he as sheriff/constable and he had been elcted to that position. (I am still trying to find him in Sheriff rolls). He "never paid income taxes". He had no social security number until many years after retiring when Aunt Dorothy took him to get it.<br /><br />In the early days PaPa Hickman and Frenchy (more later on him) would go into a town, check into a boarding house or hotel and check out the town. They would check out the eating establishments and maybe find one where the food was of poor quality, and he wuld strike up a conversation with the owner. When he would ask the owner what he would take to sell it to him, if the owner decided to sell, PaPa Hickman would pull out cash and pay for it outright. He would then hire some day laborers, slap some paint on the place and fix it up. He would also order quality food, like steaks. He would have the steaks shipped direct from Kansas City. Not only did he have quality food but he offered plenty of it. Frenchy would do the cooking. This made his places profitable and busy. Then a guy would come along and see such a profitable business and ask him the same question what would he take to sell..."doubling his money" in the process! One of his most profitable was in Leesville when Ft Polk becasme a major training facility. His last establishment and longest in one place was in Ft. Worth Texas.Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-44603137712066820632007-08-16T09:05:00.000-05:002007-08-25T01:05:58.244-05:00Thomas W.

I believe that he neglected to inform Buster and Mother of the marriage and just came home with the lady. Mother said that they never liked the woman or her "kidkids" and that she and Buster "beat up her kid/kids" and "ran them off". I should probably ask Uncle Jim (James Weaver aka Buster) about that story and see how he remembers it!Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-70880181653525974032007-08-15T20:33:00.000-05:002007-08-15T20:42:58.465-05:00Weaver James HickmanWeaver had a sister Martha who married and lived in Odessa, Ector Co. Tx. One time while my mother was visiting with her she asked my mother if Weaver was as particular as he used to be? This puzzled my mother and she asked what that meant....apparently when Weaver was young and his children from his first marriage to Jesse were small he could not abide them climbing all over him as children are want to do. He did not like his clothes mussed or creased and was very particular in his appearance. Mother informed Aunt Martha that she never saw this side of him.Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-64323592972672054572007-08-15T20:04:00.000-05:002007-08-16T23:13:07.282-05:00Weaver James HickmanFamily lore: While living in Ennis, Ellis Co. Tx. Weaver fell in love and was to mary one Elsie Phelps. What happened next is not exactly certain. An accident befell Elsie and <em>she either died on their wedding day or was buried on wedding day</em>. Sometime later, Weaver married her younger sister Jessie in about 1905 in Ennis. They had five daughters. Weaver and Jessie divorced and it is said she relocated her daughters in Illinois or Indianna.<br /><br />Elise's parents, Charles W. and Mattie Phelps are enumerated in the 1900 Federal Census in Ennis, Ellis Co. TX. There is no census information for 1890 Texas. In 1880 Charles (age 19)was in the home of his parents, Alfred in the Ennis, Ellis Co. Federal Census.<br /><br />I do know that Weaver did see Jesse and his daughters occasionally. In fact it has been said by Dorothy (oldest child of Weaver's second marriage to Gertrude Ham) that they remained on good terms through out their lives. The reason for their divorce????? I'm not sure that it has ever been discussed with "us kids" but it is a well known fact that Granddaddy Hickman (Weaver) was something of a ladies man and fidelty may have been one factor.<br /><br />Gertrude said that the "accident" that Elsie had was a botched abortion. Gertrude and Weaver are now gone so there is no one to answer that question BUT since they were to marry I feel that it was probably something else. One of these days, I may be able to reach one of the families of the the five sisters or one of the Phelps memebers who might know what really happened to her.Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-80282341917745249672007-08-15T19:44:00.000-05:002007-08-15T20:04:03.678-05:00Weaver James HickmanDOB 01 Jan 1882 in Llano, Llano Co. TX. Father: Thomas William Hickman Jr. (Tom) & Mother: Nancy Jane Lindsey. <br /><br />In the 1880 census Thomas and Nancy Hickman are enunerated in Llano, Llano Co. TX. In the household at that time were George age 13, Thomas age 12, Martha age 9, Elvira age 7, Daniel Boone age 4, Mary age 2 and Alice age 12. Alice is listed as "D(daughter)/ward" which is interesting because as per Dorthy Hickman Dumas Jones and Jean Hickman Blue, they have never heard Alice referred to as anything but a sister to Weaver Hickman, their father. Further in the same census, same line it lists the birthplace of Alice as Texas, her father as Alabama and her mothers birthplace as Arkansas. This needs further research.<br />There is no census information available for 1890 as a fire virtually destroyed the entire census at the National Archives. Thomas is found on the Llano Co. Tax records for the years, 1875-1884. <br />In the 1900 census Nancy is ennumerated in the Ennis, Ellis Co. TX. census in the household of her son, George. In the Household at that time, were Boone age 23, Marich age 20, Weaver age 18, Jeff age 16 and William age 13. <br />As per a voice recording of Weaver Hickman speaking to dtr, Jean Hickman Blue, he states the name of his father and mother, "Tom and Nancy Jane". When asked where they are buried he states that they are buried in the "Telico cemetery in unmarked graves". Sherion Blue Webb has spoken with a cemetery official there who states that there is no record of Tom or Nancy there. For Tom to be buried in Ellis Co. he had to have died after 1884. His last child was born in May of 1886, so he had to be alive the August prior (approximately) at least. <br />What is possible (needs further research): On the same recording, Weaver mentions that Tom "went blind". Did Tom go blind as a result of an injury? Old war injury? Why did Tom, Nancy and family leave Llano Co and migrate to Ennis, Ellis Co.? When they were in Ennis did they set up their own place or live with their son George? Why are they buried in unmarked graves? Are there any burial records anywhere?<br />Tom's brother, John Franklin Hickman married (2nd) Mary Louise Lindsey on Dec 26, 1865 in Warren, Bradley Co. Arkansas. Her parents were George E. and Mary Louise Hicks Hickman. Mary Louise Hickman was born Aug 20, 1849 in Arkansas and died Mar 09. 1918 in Bronte, Coke Co. TX. On the above mentioned voice recording of Weaver, he mentions a double first cousin- Frank. Needs to be proved but it is possible that Nancy Jane and Mary Louise are sisters.Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-61694803487858510042007-08-15T01:10:00.001-05:002007-08-16T23:09:20.448-05:00Gertude Ham Hickman Barton memoryI recall a story that my Aunt Marie told me that her Mother had told her. Mr Hickman (Gertrudes first husband) and Mama ran a cafe and they had a waitress named Bonnie. A young man came around a few times that Bonnie became interested in. A short time later Bonnie left town with her new Beau, a man named Clyde. The rest is history as they made a name for themselves as the "Barrow Gang".<br /><br />Maybe I can get Aunt Marie to write her account of this personally as her telling of it was more dramatic!<br /><br />P.S. Weaver's cafes tended to be situated in areas that had a good people flow and served good food, and Marie recalls that her Mother told her that H.L. Hunt was a frequent patron.Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-65146313539199215782007-08-15T01:02:00.000-05:002007-08-15T10:44:43.571-05:00Living with GrandmaRemembering things my Mother (Ethel Jean Hickman Blue) told me.<br />I recall that Mother once told me that her grandmother was full blood Choctaw Indian. After speaking with Marie, she says that it was not Grandma (Ethel Clara/Claire Austin Ham) but her mother, Abigail Josephine (or Josephine Abigail) Skiver Austin who was full blood Chactaw.<br /><br />I assume that when I start digging I should be able to find out more information on her...maybe on tribal rolls?Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-58056728174129110812007-08-15T00:39:00.000-05:002007-08-16T23:57:46.623-05:00Living with Grandma...My Mother, Ethel Jean Hickman Blue lived for much of her younger years in the home of her grandmother, Ethel Clara/Claire Austin Ham. This is an attempt to record some of the things she told me about her family. Jean ("Jean Doll") lived "with Grandma" because her parents worked the cafe from daylight to night and she was too small to leave alone.<br /><br />"Grandma lived with my uncle on the farm". Mother could not remember specifically, if Grandma Ham actually lived with her son OR if she had her own house on the property. Mother admits she was "very spoiled" by her grandmother and did not have to do many chores, certainly nothing she did not want to do. When she was older she went "back and forth on the bus" to see her parents. "Grandma liked my daddy (Weaver James Hickman) alot" and "did not care for Mama (Gertude Ham Hickman Barton)". For some reason there was some love lost between Gertude and her mother. I can only specilate that it had something to do with Gertrude leaving Weaver and marrying Curry Barton. When Jean Doll was about 8? years old she recalled that Grandma had gotten a call from Gertrude and that she (Gertude) was coming to get her and Buster and take them home with her. At that time Gertrude had remarried and had another child, Marie. Grandma called Daddy and told him that "Gertrude" was "on her way to get" me and would be there at such and such time. Daddy arrived before Mother and "I was in the car with him leaving just as she arrived"or she had "just missed us" . **Wasn't Buster there too? ** Another time Mother told me about her half sister, Marie. "She was very young, maybe 3 or 5" and "She was so beautiful(or pretty, I can't reall what word she used) in her beautiful white dress"... "I was so jealous of her". Was this the FIRST time that Mother had ever seen her half sister? Hard to believe. I belive that Buster (James Weaver), Mother's brother was also there most of that time. I believe that Dorothy, her sister, lived elsewhere with an Aunt (Gertrudes sister?).<br /><br />When I was growing up and we would be around Papa Hickman (Weaver) he would always ask Mother if she had heard "from your Mammy"? When Grandmother Barton would mention Granddaddy she would call him "Mr. Hickman". Odd for a marriage don't you think...even for one ending in divorce? I know for a fact that Mother was the only sibling (of second marriage) to keep in contact with Grandmother Barton at all and Dorothy ws the one who was in contact with the girls from the first marriage. Much of Buster's adult live was spent in the Air Force overseas. Interestingly enough I never heard him say a bad thing about Grandmother Barton and as you know "little pictures have big ears" and I was always the quite one...listening to the grownups! But he always said that Grandmother was his "best worker"!Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4712890347646940645.post-73124225230689671012007-08-15T00:17:00.000-05:002007-08-15T10:37:20.163-05:00John Judge HamMarie says that when the family had to flee ARK that they left their "entire home and belongings".<br /><br />For someone to leave that fast wouldn't the crime have to pretty bad?

(Austin) HAMFederal Census records show: In 1920 the family was living under their correct name of HAM in Marion Co. Mississippi. Birth places of John Judge was GA and Ethel was born in TX. Birth places of the children in the household were recorded as Ora Odel in MS; Oliver Tracy in MS; Gertrude MS (she herself said that she was born in Seals LA); Curtis in TX; Vera Lavon in MS; James in MS.<br /><br />In 1930 the family was living under their correct name of HAM in Red River Co. TX. Birth places for John Judge and Ethel were the same. In the home were Curtis born TX; James born MS; John born MS; Lola born MS. Residing on the next farm was their son, Odel and his wife Agnes born in LA and their infant son Alex born in LA.<br /><br />Voicing my thoughts: My grandmother, Gertrude was born in 1908. Currently I cannot place the family in the 1910 Federal Census...was it during this time that the family went by "Beasley"? That is the direction I will need to check along with Tax Rolls & Land records.<br /><br />If the family were "running from the law" why revert back to HAM at all?Debbie J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483128780957637noreply@blogger.com0
