260 1.Jerry Caudill (born 1881 in Letcher Co., Ky) and married to Mary Combs, daughter of Preacher Ira Combs and Martha Burton. Jerry and Mary are my great-grandparents.
Jerry moved to Perry Co. and is listed with his wife and children in several census records as working for the Glomawr coal mine. Jerry was murdered by his stepson Green McIntyre on December 28 1925 in Perry Co., Ky with a single gunshot wound to the head. The story is that Jerry dearly loved his wife but they quarreled and Green simply lost his temper. Green never served a single day in jail.

Mary went on to marry an abusive man (third husband) whom she soon left. Mary and Jerry are buried together in the Ira Combs cemetery in Jeff, Ky. Their eldest son Watson was murdered by a romantic rival and is buried next to them.

Jerry was the son of Elizabeth Caudill (born 1861 in Letcher Co.) and a local schoolteacher, Richmond Whitaker. Whitaker married another woman, Polly Ann Stamper, six months after Jerry was born. It is said he was so bitter about his biological father that he would never take his name but his mother's.

Elizabeth is the daughter of William J. "Stiller Bill" Caudill, a veteran of the Confederacy, and his wife Nancy. Got more if you are interested. Do you have any information on Elizabeth and her second husband Elijah Combs? They are recorded as having also lived and worked in the Glomawr community next to Jerry and Mary.

My grandfather was only a 12-year-old boy when he held his father as he died. He was then sent to a workhouse and to work the mines at age 14. He lost touch with his father's maternal family and we would dearly love to know about Elizabeth's other children ... Nancy Ann, Eli, Arminta.

Would love to share!

2.Jesse lived near the mouth of Dry Fork below Whitesburg, KY. Jesse and Polly are buried in the Watty Caudill Cemetery at the mouth of Dry Fork, Letcher Co., KY. The LDS IGI Kentucky Surname Microfiche shows Jesse to have been born in Letcher Co., KY; the Caudill book (Chapter 89, Page 1387) shows him to have been born in Harlan Co., KY. Since Letcher Co. wasn't formed until 1842 it is assumed that he was born in a part of Harlan Co. that later became Letcher Co.. Brian K. Caudill.

OUSLEY, John (I10914)
 
266 1.John was probably named for the Kentucky statesman, John Breckinridge. Austin Stalford of Del City, OK, a great grandson, furnished this account of the family's move west and their early life in Oklahoma. "John was born in Letcher Co., March 11, 1870. He was from a family of about 15 children, he being the youngest child of William J. and Nancy (Dickson) Caudill. At age 25, John married Polly Ann Smith, a daughter of Newton and Elizabeth (Combs) Smith. Polly was from a family of seven children, the others being: Hendrix, Dora, Rachel, Louis, Thornton, and Margaret. Polly's brother, Hendrix, married Dorcas Southers, a daughter of W. H. and Martha Southers. Dorcas was from a family of four children, the others being: Lou, Sylvester, and Hattie. In the fall of 1906, the families of John Caudill, Newton Smith, Hendrix Smith, and W. H. Southers decided to sell out and travel to Oklahoma Territory for their future homes. These families were farmers in Letcher Co., KY, for several years. They either owned or rented land for farming or grazing. They owned their own farm equipment to raise grain and hay for livestock and table use, and to plant and work their garden. In November of 1906, they put their land, homes, farm equipment, livestock, furniture, etc., up for sale. After the sale they boarded a train for Oklahoma Territory, bringing with them only their clothes and some bedding. On December 6, 1906, the train arrived in Davenport, Oklahoma Territory. The town folks of Davenport were in shock to see so many people get off the train at one time and particularly at this time of the year. That night they all stayed in the Davenport Hotel. Early the next day they bought cotton sacks for those big enough to pull a sack, and off to the cotton fields they went to pick cotton. "John Caudill and family settled on 160 acres of rent land northwest of Davenport. Newton Smith and family bought 160 acres east of Davenport. W. H. Southers and family bought 160 acres north of Kendrick, Oklahoma. Hendrix Smith and family moved in with Newton Smith. "They bought a heater and cooking stove, and just enough other essential household goods to get by. They had a hard time that winter. By spring they had bought horses and enough farming equipment to farm the land. They just could get enough dry beans, sugar, flour, meal, oatmeal, pure lard, coffee, soda, baking powder, and Vanilla, if they were lucky. By summer, John Caudill had bought a milk cow, yearling calf to be butchered later that fall, hog and chickens. John raised cotton, corn, wheat, and sugar cane. He bought a sorghum mill, a grinder so he could grind his corn meal, wheat for flour, and to mill the sugar cane for sorghum. Polly and the children helped plant and worked the garden. They would plant everything from A to Z. They bought quite a few fruit jars. By fall these jars were full with canned vegetables from the garden and wild fruit. Chickens would lay eggs most of the year so they could have fresh eggs on the table. John would milk the cow, which afforded them milk, butter, cheese, and cream by use of the separator. In early winter the hog and calf would be butchered for meat during the year. Meat from the bone and intestines from the fresh hog would be used to make soap. Polly and the children would make soap from the fat, water and lye in a large black kettle. They would boil it until it got thick, then let it cool and harden. After it was cold they would cut the soap into bars. This lye soap they would use for dishes, clothes, hands and for bathing. John was a blacksmith. He could repair anything around the farm. Polly would raise her own chickens and she had an incubator which was run by a kerosene light. You had to put water in a pipe that run through the incubator. The lamp kept the water hot for 21 days, and pretty soon you would have young chickens. The eggs had to be turned each day. They were marked with an "X" on one side and "O" on the other. If the eggs were not turned for even formation of the embryo, the chicks would be crippled. Polly sold eggs and cream to buy staple foods, clothes, etc. John liked to fish and would work five days in the field, take Polly to town on Saturday, and on Sunday in the summer he would go fishing. In the winter they would make taffy candy, pop corn balls, and ginger bread from molasses. Polly washed on a wash board. She'd put white clothes in a big black kettle to boil them in lye soap so they would come out white. She would then wash them again and then rinse in clear water. John rented several different places before buying a school lease of 160 acres about 1916, two miles south of Baker School. John lived here and farmed this land until his death, February 25, 1947. Dewey and Ventice, sons of John, took over the operation of the farm until 1957. At that time they had a farm sale, selling out the land and everything on the farm". CAUDILL, John Breckinridge (I8480)
 
267 1.John's death certificate (File 23180) states that he died at around 11pm. It shows his wife's name as Mrs. Polly Caudill, and that he was born "in 1852". He was a retired farmer living in Gander, KY, where he was buried on 9/2/39 by family and friends. The informant was Mrs. Dennis Dixon (neighbor) of Blackey, KY. John is buried in the Dixon Cemetery in Carcassone, Letcher Co., KY. John (7) is listed in the 1860 Letcher Co., KY, Census (#387) with his father, Jesse (42), mother, Mary (33), and 8 siblings: Watson (15), Benjamin (13), Sarah (12), Susanah (9), Nancy (6), Henry (4), Elizabeth (2), and Ester (5/12). John (18) is listed in the 1870 Letcher Co., KY, Census (#147) with his father, Jesse (51), mother, Mary (42), and 10 siblings: Susan (20), Sarah (21), Nancy (16), Henry (14), Elizabeth (12), Easter (10), David (7), James (6), Samuel (3), and Rebecca (1). John (26) is listed in the 1880 Letcher Co., KY, Census (#534/538 - Precinct 5) along with his son Henry (3). John (57) is listed in the 1910 Letcher Co., KY, Census (#129 - West Whitesburg Precinct) with his third wife, Polly (27), with 7 of his children: Lizzie (14), Dellia (13), Watson (11), Burris (9), Alta (2), Dixie (5/12), and Dalna (5/12). His sister, Susie Roberts (59), was also listed with him. John (67) is listed in the 1920 Pulaski Co., KY, Census (#36 - Buncomb District) with his wife Pollie (37), and 6 of his children: Altie (12), Dixie (10), Dalnie (10), Ethel (7), Cecil (5), and Arvill (3). So far, John has not been located in the 1900 Census.

The following article is from The Mountain Eagle newspaper dated 9/18/39, page 1, column 5: "Aged Citizen - Seriously Ill"

Uncle John M. Caudill, 85 or 87, for several years a resident of Bull Creek in our Co. was reported seriously ill a few days ago, but on Monday folks residing in that section said he was considerably improved. Uncle John, formerly resided on the river about Uz and is a son of the late Jesse Caudill, one of the pioseers of that family who settled in the county. The following obituary (original source unknown) was received from Earl Dean Polly, grandson of John: John M. fifth child of Jesse and Polley Back Caudill born Jan. 25th 1852, in the old Caudill log home at Mouth Dry Fork, Uz, Ky, where he grew to manhood, Joined Indian Bottom, Church of regular Baptist faith and order. In 1872 Served as deacon for about forty five years, Which faith he clung to until his Departure at his home on Bull Creek, at 10, ovclck P. M. Aug. 31th 1939. He served his church these many years, without a reference ever being brought against him. Uncle John lived his religeon, in his ever day life, was an ardent believer in this old time faith, a constant reader of the Book of all books, the Bible. He was truthful, honest, his word was his bond. He worked and managed on the square with all men, he only wanted for himself and his family what was fair and right, Met the hardships, disaapointments, and worries, with a manner that could only be had by a true child of GOD.

A kind husband, and affecinate father, into his home were born ninteen children, thirteen still survive him, all of who are # respectfull citizens in the comunity in which they live. His devoted wife still survive him. To his family and neighbors, you will miss Uncle John' s kindness pleasant words and sacrad advise. If you should not make your pease calling and election sure with GOD you can neve be where Uncle John is. He said "I only dread the sting of death, which I believe ever body does," R. B.

3.Will of Ezekiel Joines, August 1803

The first Joines to appear in records of Rowan Co. (from which Wilkes was formed) is Ezekiel Joines (spelled variously Joynes, Joines, Joins, Goins, Goines, and Jines; older people pronounced it as "Jines."). He appears on the 1778 Tax List for Rowan Co..

Ezekiel Joines apparently arrived in North Carolina with his grown sons Thomas and Major, who both fought in the Revolutionary War. Legend has it that Major was killed at the Battle of Eutaw Springs near Camden, South Carolina.

Ezekiel remarried in Rowan Co. to Sarah Gunter on 14 July 1779 (North Carolina Marriage Bond No. 000125211 - Sarah Gunter and Ezekil Goins). She may also have been married before, because her son Edmund is referred to in several records, including Ezekiel's will, as Edmund Gunter alias Joines.

In the name of God amen, I Ezekial Joines of Wilkes Co. and State of North Carolina being of sound and perfect mind and memory, Blessed be God, do this 6th day of July in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and two do make and publish this my last will and Testament in manner and form following that is to say, First, I give and bequeath unto my beloved wife Sarah Joines all my whole estate consisting of every species of property that I am now possessed with at this time to have free and clear during her lifetime or widowhood -- and after her death or marriage, the whole property to be equally divided between Thomas Joines, Sayer [Sarah] Roberts, Piety Parsons & Edmund Joines alias Edward Gunter. The division shall be made by my Executors and if they can't agree in the division the whole property shall be sold to by Executors and the money equally divided amongst the Legatees. Under these considerations I do hereby make and order my trusty friends John R. Johnson and Edmond Joins alias Edmund Gunter Executors of this my last will and Testament. In witness whereof I the said Ezekial Joines have to this my last will & testament set my hand & seal the day & date above written.

Signed and published and delivered by the said Ezekial Joines the testator as his last will & testament in the presence of us who were present at the time of signing

_______________________________________________________
4.(By Eldon Joines) The first record of Ezekiel Joines in North Western North Carolina is the 1778 Tax List for Rowan County. Ezekiel is listed as Ezekiel Jones. Ezekiel was living in Capt. Lyon's District.(Doc# 164) A search of the Rowan County records did not locate an Ezekiel Jones living there, during this same time period. Ezekiel's son Thomas is listed on the same tax list as Thomas Jines, living in Capt. Johnstons District.(Doc# 164)

In a letter written by Wesley Joines, Sr. on Oct. 25, 1920 and published in the book "The Ancestry of Della Blevins Graham" by Della B. Graham in 1955, Wesley states that Ezekiel Joines emigrated from Scotland and settled in what is now Wilkes County, North Carolina. Wesley was the great grandson of Ezekiel. Wesley's father Major Joines lived to be a very old man and could have related this information to Wesley.(Doc # 193)

Ezekiel Joines was listed in the 1784-1787 census of Wilkes County, NC and in the 1790 Census of Wilkes County.(Doc# 195, 82)

In October of 1789 Ezekiel Joines purchased 200 acres of land from Charles Walker of Franklin County, Georgia.(Doc# 82) There was a Joines family living in Georgia in the late 1700's, the Jabez Joines family. (Doc# 14) Could there be a connection? Also the Noah Joines family from Kentucky has connections to Georgia in the late 1700's.(Doc# 15)

In 1791 Ezekiel Joines sold 100 acres to George Payne. The deed states that this was part of a tract of land sold to Ezekiel Joines by Charles Walker.(Doc# 196)

In the 1795 tax list of Wilkes County, Ezekiel is listed as Ezekiel Gines owning 187 acres of land and having 1 poll.(Doc# 94) In the 1797 tax list of Wilkes County, Ezekiel is listed as owning 100
acres and having no polls. This meant that Ezekiel was no longer required to pay taxes. Possibly because he had turned 70 years old. If so, he would have been born about 1726.(Doc# 93) Also in the 1797 Tax List Edmund Joines now owns 87 acres of land.

Ezekiel Joines was listed in the 1800 Census of Wilkes County along with his wife Sarah.(Doc# 82)

Ezekiel Joines left a Will which was presented to the Wilkes County courts in August of 1803. Ezekiel sold his remaining 100 acres of land to Edmund Joines in early July of 1803, which means that Ezekiel probably died in July or August of 1803.(Doc# 194, 197)

In his Will, Ezekiel named his wife Sarah. He also named Thomas Joines, Sayer Roberts, Piety Parsons, and Edmund Joines alias Edmund Gunter.( Doc# 194)

In Bardsley's, DICTIONARY OF WELSH AND ENGLISH SURNAMES WITH SPECIAL AMERICAN INSTANCES; Published by the Genealogical Publishing Company in 1968, he wrote that the name Joynes originated in Cheshire County, England several centuries ago. (Doc# 211) Cheshire County is located on the border of Wales. The Joynes name is believed to be a Welsh variation of the name Johns.

The first record of the Joines (Joynes) family in America was found in Virginia on 24 July 1638 when Randell Crewe brought John Joines along with twelve others to Upper New Norfolk on the Nansemond River. There has been a Joines (Joynes) family on the Eastern Shore of Virginia since then. Could it be that Ezekiel came from this family? (Doc# 1)

In 1982 the Ancestry Research Associates of Surrey, England conducted a search of Scotland for the name Joines/Joynes.(Doc# 198) Their research located only one Joynes. George Joynes married Agnes Thomsone in Edinburg, Scotland on 24th of August 1656. They concluded that Joynes/Joines was not a Scottish surname and that there is almost no record of the Joynes/Joines name in Scotland.

288 1.Mark took his family out of NC around 1869 and went to Ohio where he worked as a farmhand. Ore Knob Copper Mine was started by Ballou (sp?) as a silver mine that played out and they discovered copper. This mine is near the Peach Bottom Mine. The mine was bought by a syndicate after the Civil War. The reason that it never prospered was that it lacked access to any rail facilities. Ore had to be taken by oxen pulled wagons to the nearest refinery. Daniel Caudill died intestate in 1877. Mark returned at least once in 1891 to challenge the distribution of property. As it turned out there wasn't enough to go around. His sisters were widowed from the war and they and their children received some of the property. The largest share went to Daniel Jack Caudill, a younger brother. Source: Richard Caudill, Great-grandson to Mark Caudill.
