He had a better place prepared for her, and took her where there would be no more sickness, pain or sorrow, nothing but peace, happiness and perfect rest. So we must strive to meet her in that world where we will never part again. There is a shadow in our home, her voice is hushed and still, a vacant place that can never be filled. We would not call her back from perfect peace and rest, but take up life’s burden cheerfully for God does all for the best. Lonely are our hearts today for grandmother has passed away.

For the second time in recent years a portion of one of the main business blocks at Howard, in this county, has been swept by fire entailing a severe loss to the owner of the property, J.T. Hart. Mr. Hart’s store which was situated above the middle of the block on the west side of the square, was discovered about four o’clock Friday morning to be in a blaze that was beyond control, which seemed to have started in the rear of the building and spreading rapidly. It was through heroic effort on the part of the bucket brigade that adjoining buildings were saved. A careful survey of the situation by those first to reach the fire led them to believe that the store had been robbed during the night and a match applied to the remainder of the stock. Mr. Hart carried one of the largest and best stock of general merchandise in the county, which is said to have been valued at about $8,000. The building, which was also owned by Mr. Hart, was valued at about $2,000. Unfortunately Mr. Hart carried but little insurance, his loss, therefore, being almost a total one. He has the sympathy of his many friends in his great misfortune.

Hi Virginia, I'm related to Michael Watson through his son, Perry M. Watson. I have limited information on the family, but will be glad to share what I have. Most of the research I have on Michael's children comes from Kit Elkins, another Watson family researcher. If anyone else has information for the Watson family, I would like to correspond with you. I've listed the details below. Carla Miles #1 pg 312 29 Dec 1858 A.J. Youngblood and his wife Serena Ann Youngblood, formerly Serena Ann Watson to Jonathan B. McCrary (Talbot) $150 12th Dist LL53,43,22 (1/5 parts of) 506 acres more or less Wit: John W. Tenn?, J.A. McCants Recorded: July 12, 1859 #1 Sarena (Serena) A. Watson was the daughter of Michael Watson and his second wife, Sarah. She was born about 1836 and married Andrew Youngblood in Taylor County on 5/20/1855. #2 pg 312 1 Jan 1859 Marion Co. Calvin Ohern and wife, Winney Ohern formerly Winney Watson (Marion Co) to Jonathan B. McCrary (Talbot) $150 12th Dist LL53,43,22 (1/5 parts of) 506 acres more or less Wit: David Bray, Willis Waston Recorded: July 12, 1859 #2 Winny Watson was the youngest child of Michael Watson and his second wife, Sarah. She was born 5/13/1842 and married Calvin O'earn. Winny passed away in 1912. Willis Watson was the second child of Michael and his first wife. Her name is unknown. Willis was born on 10/14/1808 in South Carolina. He married Elizabeth Ann Bolen, the marriage date is unknown. Elizabeth was born about 1818 and her date of death is unknown. Willis died on 4/18/1878 in Alabama. #3 pg 313 Marion Co. 1 Jan 1859 Robert C. Bailey and wife Sarah, formerly wife of Mikail Watson, dec'd to Jonathan B. McCrary (Talbot) $150 12th Dist LL53,43,22 (1/5 parts of) 506 acres more or less Wit: David Bray, Willis Waston Recorded: July 12, 1859 #3 Sarah was Michael's second wife. I have no other information for her. Willis Watson's info is listed under #2. #4 pg 323 Early 14 July 185? Julius Watson (Henry Alabama) to Jonathan McCrary $150 one undivided fifth of 12th Dis LL22 LL53 506 acres Wit: Em W. Cotten, Recorded: Aug 18, 1859 [NOTE: This must have been the estate of Michael Watson] #4 Julius Moore Watson was the oldest child of Michael and Sarah Watson. Julius was born about 1834 in South Carolina. He married Sarah Elizabeth Parker. This is all the information I have for him. Additional notes about the Watson family: Michael Watson was born in 1775 in South Carolina. His first wife's name is unknown, they had eight children: Richmond Watson, Willis Watson, Sealy Watson Elkins, Mary "Polly" Watson Elkins, Benjamin R. Watson, Michael Perry Watson ( in my research I've never seen Perry go by the name of Michael. His name was listed this way in Michael Watson's will. All of the records I've found have his name as Perry M. Watson), Arthur A. Watson, Elizabeth Ellen Watson Hart. Richmond and Benjamin Watson stayed in South Carolina their entire lives. Willis and Perry Watson moved to Georgia as well as their sisters, Mary and Elizabeth. I'm not sure if Sealy Watson stayed in SC or moved to GA. It is thought Michael Watson married his second wife, Sarah, about 1833. Their children were: Julius Moore Watson, Sarena A. Watson Youngblood, Elijah Watson and Winny Watson Ohearn. Michael Watson must have moved from SC to GA sometime between 1834 and 1836, according to the birthdates of his children. Julius was born abt. 1834 in SC and Sarena followed in 1836 and her birthplace is given as GA. Michael Watson's will was dated 11/20/1844 and it was destroyed by fire: Court of Ordinary July Term 1846 It appearing to the Court upon the oath of Thos. Burge and Burton W. Dowd that the within is a copy in substance of the original Will and that the original has been destroyed by fire. Therefore Ordered by the Court that the within Copy be established in lieu of said Original. Solomon Wall J.I.G. T. R. Nutt J.I.G. Jordan Wilcher J.I.G. I don't know the exact date of Michael's death. The schedule of goods of his estate was dated 5/31/1845, so he died sometime before this date. Most likely in May of 1845. His burial place is unknown. Michael Watson's will and schedule of goods from his estate are posted in the Marion County Archives. Carla Miles

I'm piecing together the 5 people who would have been involved in the land that had previously belonged to Michael Watson. He actually bought the lots in 1838 -- so they were in Marion County at the time. Anybody researching Michael Watson or Robert C. Bailey family? I'm not sure when he died -- but probably around 1859. Look at the census below -- and it gives the children in the 1850 Marion Co census -- but since these mention 1/5 some of the children must not have lived. BAILEY, Robert C. married Sarah C.
