Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/RgB.2ACE/596 Message Board Post: Madisonville Democrat, Wednesday, January 30, 1929, Page 2: “Some Points of History Relative to Major Joe Divine, A Native of Monroe County, Tennessee---Major Joe Divine, during the Civil War, captured by the Confederates in the town of Madisonville, about 64 years ago, from the basement of the old brick house east of the public square, formerly owned by Dr. Upton, which house is still standing, now owned by Johnson brothers. Major Divine, of that day, was a great man, and was honored to the honors of his country in which he lived. He was the son of Thomas Divine, who died in the year of 1856, also an uncle to Major Paul E. Divine of Johnson City, Tenn. Mr. Divine was carried to McMinn County by the soldiers and put to death. He was buried where he was killed in an open field, where he remained for one year, after which he was brought back to Big Creek to the old family cemetery. The Major was always a brave, courageous and fearless man, and willing to die for what he believed to be right. The Major shot one of the soldiers and the wounded man died. Of course I guess this piece won’t be much interesting to the folks of today, but it will be borne in mind that his kinsmen will honor him as being a great man.” ---Shelley Webb.

Slaton’s recent letter to write of some incidents occurring there. I cannot speak from memory regarding my first item, since it occurred about a week before I arrived in America, May 22, 1853, and I did not arrive until May 31st. It is an address by Josiah I. Wright, Esq., upon the death of John Denton and was printed at Loudon by John W., and Sam’s B. O’Brien at the request of members of the Eromathesian Society, signed by a committee composed of J.N. Dunn, W.W. Blair and two others. The address eulogizes the memory of Mr. Denton and is quite a creditable effort, I being the judge. Mention is made of the recent passing of other members of the society, a Rucker, a Patton, a Casteel, a McCroskey and three others. The only one of these whom I remember of hearing spoken of was Benjamin Casteel, who married my aunt, Elizabeth McKenzie. Their son, Benjamin, will be remembered by old timers in Madisonville. He read law under T.E.H. McCroskey, Esq., and went to Missouri in 1872 and was for quite awhile a Judge in St. Joseph, where he died in 1914. My law register for 1853 gives Mr. Wright as one of the lawyers at Madisonville, the others being W.L. Eakin, H.H. Stephens and George Brown. I do not remember Mr. Wright, unless it be that he turned out to be a Methodist preacher, Rev. Josiah Wright, whom I used to know before the war. Preaching then was a bore to me, a very small boy, but I remember the voice, at times so high and loud that it almost split the church rafters and then so low, a mere whisper that one could hardly hear. J.N. Dunn, one of the above signers, became a wholesale grocer in Atlanta and his daughter, Ida, went to school at Sweetwater and married one of my boyhood chums, Prof. Joe K. Brunner, and they later went to Colorado Springs, where Joe passed some twenty years ago. The widow, I am told, now lives at Grand Junction with a daughter. W.W. Blair, another signer, was Wiley Blair, of near Loudon. His sister, Sarah, on Dec. 17, 1856, married Donald A. McKenzie and became the grandmother of Mrs. Anna McKenzie’s children. Wiley went to Missouri and from there to Weatherford, Texas, where I understand he passed many years ago. Forgot to record that I attended the last mentioned wedding, one of the first events I remember. Now, if any old timer can dig up anything more ancient than this concerning Hiwassee, let him trot it out, and some of us, at least, will be very glad to hear it. While waiting for someone else to “speak out in meetin’” about Hiwassee, I will mention the first Commencement there of which I have any record. Though it took place the same year as did the last marriage above, I do not remember it, as I lived in Loudon then and was of quite tender years. It purports to have taken place July 4, 1856. The speakers whom I knew were S.A. Key, J.R. McKenzie, J.J. Blair of Loudon and C.J. Wilborn. There were six others whom I never knew, but presume the valedictorian, R.M. Henderson, lived out in the Henderson neighborhood. S.A. Key, “Squire,” lived with his mother on the place now occupied by Willie Brunner, whose father was a nephew of “Squire.” After the war he joined his brother, Judge D.M. Key, in Chattanooga and later became Chancellor. J.R. McKenzie was a brother of my mother and came to California for gold in 1857 with Douth Axley, father of James there. Jesse Owen and W.L. Clark, father of Charles of Sweetwater. None of them carried back a fortune, I think, though they appear to have mined faithfully. Later, J.R. McKenzie became an assistant surgeon in the 3rd Tennessee Infantry of the Confederacy. Sometime after the war, he removed to Weatherford, Texas, where he died in 1902, after having been honored and having accumulated quite a competence. James Blair became a farmer and also went to Weaherford, where he passed many years ago. C.J. Wilborn, several of whose letters I have, appears to have been something of a masher in his young days, as I think my aunt, Mrs. Casteel, and my step-mother, Mary Brunner prior to her marriage to father, were a trifle “sweet on” “Juane,” as they more or less affectionately called him. Young women then, in the fifties, were just like the young women of today, just like they were in the eighties when they greatly interested me, and so it will ever be, I am glad to believe. “Juane” taught school at Mossy Creek for awhile with S.A. Key, it seems, and after the war was a lawyer at Blairsville, Ga. Some of his relatives reside here in Los Angeles, I think. The programme for this commencement was printed in Augusta, Ga., a long way from home, surely. Now I subside and am ready to listen to the next Hiwassean.” ---W.E. Clark.

It is my guess again that Sophronia died and George then marries the sister Amanda. In Marriage Records; Winder Geo. to Sophronia Haskins 11/13/1873, Book D, page 172 Winder, George to Amanda Haskins 1/14/1884, Book E, page 513 The records that you need to see 1890 Census are not available. They were lost in a fire at the Nathional Archives. George Winder was married and living next door to the Haskin Family in the 1870 Census; Dist. 3 # 103 Winder, George 44 , VA Jane 47, NC Pleasant 14, KY, Nancy KY. So he may have married in KY. George is about the same age as James Haskins who was 45 in 1870. When a wife died , it was very common for the man to marry another sister. I cannot prove that to be the case for George but it seems to be. There is a story in the Monroe Co. Heritage Book on the James Henry Haskins family submitted by a researcher, Beverly Foster Gines, P.O. Box 185, Wilson, WY 83014 / in 1997. You might try to get in touch with her and find out some answers. I am a volunteer to look up records. I do not research this family. Hope some of this will help.
