3. The following was taken from a pamphlet written by Wilton L. Johnson, 912 Academy Ave., Belmont, CA 94002. Written about 1960, Wilton spent several years doing research and talking to older Joines Family members in NC. "Shadrick Franklin Joines, known as "Shade" Joines, was born 17 October 1840 in a large board house in Absher, Wilkes Co. North Carolina. The house is still standing but know one lives in it. Shade Joines as he was known was a well built medium size man, had almost
black hair and deep brown eyes. As a rule he had a mild temper, but often he would get provoked and his temper would flair up. He was an honest and hard working man. Shade was a farmer as most people were in Absher, North Carolina. He did his farming quite well with only one arm, as the story
below will tell. Many men from Absher, North Carolina volunteered to fight in the Civil War. Shade was working out in the corn field one afternoon when a group of Confederate Soldiers rode up for food and water. Shade ask a great many questions on how the war between the states was going. Late that afternoon Shade rode off with the confederate soldiers to war. The company Shade was with went up into Virginia. They had a fierce battle in which Shade was shot in the right arm two times. The doctor operated on Shade's arm while the thick of battle was going on. Two bullets were removed.
About two months later Shade was in another battle with a group of me n. When the smoke cleared, only Shade and another man by the name of Joh n Bell were left standing. The Northern Army took the two men prisoners. While Shade and John Bell were prisoners, infection set in Shades arm. John Bell
was with Shade when the northern doctor operated. Shade said he could not see them cut his arm off, but when his arm hit the ground he could hear it. The doctor cut shades arm off just above the right elbow. Shade and John Bell were sent home when Shade could travel. Shade married Nancy Ballow and they had thirteen children. Shade died 24 August 1915. His wife Nancy died 27 April 1903.
This information was given to me by Aurra Joins, one of Shade's daughters."
