Madison County AlArchives Obituaries.....Chambers, William J. October 28, 1905 ************************************************ Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/copyright.htm http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/al/alfiles.htm ************************************************ File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by: Cheryl Beth Hemingway bethhemingway@hotmail.cm July 3, 2006, 12:52 pm unknown "Died at Maysville" Lieut. William J. Chambers died at his home near Maysville, October 28, 1905. Comrade Chambers was a Tennessean by birth and a Texan by adoption. Both states may claim him as a worthy son and both will mourn his death; while Alabama claims him as a son and furnishes his last earthly bed where his dust will return to its mother dust,his spirit knows no bounds for it is gone to God who gave it. Comrade Chambers was born at Manchester, TN, December 29, 1836 and with his parents in the year 1840 journeyed and settled in the Republic of Texas near the present town of Dangerfield, where the records show his father's 'homestead headright', but the exposure incident to a new country caused a failure in his health and he moved back to TN and settled at Cowan, where he died leaving our comrade with a widowed mother and sister as a care. At the age of 19 years he returned with them to his Texas home and engaged in farming. A beautiful and happy life was his for only a short time. Texas, the home of his mother and sister, when threatened by invasion, called for men able to bear arms for the defense of home. Among the throng of men and boys who responded to Texas' call with gun in hand, came the fearless blue-eyed boy who enlisted as a soldier for Texas. His company was "I" company of the 9th Texas Cavalary (McCullough Whitfields, afterwards), Ross Brigade (Lee's afterwards), Jackson's Divison (Vanhorn's afterwards), Forrest's Corps and with this body of men he served throughout the war and was surrendered at its close near Jackson, MISS. He was early elected a lieutenant and as such he served. After the surrender, he again went to TN, but remained only a short time, moving to AL where he married Miss Elizabeth Eaton, Octover 7, 1868 of Maysville, AL, since which has been his home where he raised a family while engaging in successful farming. He leaves a wife and 9 children and a host of friends in AL, TN and TX. He was a consistent member of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church and one of the elders for many years and died as he had lived, with full assurance of justification and peace with God. He was buried at Maple Hill Cemetery, Huntsville, AL, October 30th, 1905. Additional Comments: NOTE: This obituary was typed for family members soon after his death and has been preserved by his descendants since. He was the father of Allie Chambers, who was the father of Annile Chambers Hemingway, who is my mother.

Wednesday, June 17, 1885 Page Three Death of an Old Citizen We regret to chronicle the death of Wm. L. Clark, which sad event occurred at his home in Clopton, after a long and lingering illness of near twelve months duration, the terminus of which was a paralytic stroke, which his feeble constitution was unable to survive. Mr. Clark had attained the ripe old age of 78 years, the last 38 of which he had been a resident of Clopton, where he was highly respected by all who knew him. One of the sublimest things in his nature was the moral grandeur of his independent integrity. Thus has passed away another one of our good old pioneer settlers, who leaves a host of friends and relatives to mourn his loss, and to them we extend our heartfelt condolence.

Resolved 2nd, That we tender our sympathy and condolence to his bereaved family and commend them to Him who tempers the wind to the shorn lamb, and renders comfort and compassion to all who call on Him.
