If not, it appeared in the McKinney Democrat on March 9, 1905 on page 2. She was listed as Mrs. Roxie Baccus. If you live outside of Collin County, you can request obituary information via e-mail. Just include all the above information in the e-mail and send it to the Genealogy librarian at tluscombe@mckinneytexas.org. Hoping it has the information you need.

Refer to public records in both Denton and Collin Counties, TX. Benjamin & Roxanne's farm was on the Denton/Collin County lines so land records are in Denton, Probate in Collin. Benjamin, and the BACCUS family, later moved just east to Collin County, where he an Roxanne died in Lebanon, Collin County, in 1905 Oliver Ivy was John and Julia BACCUS' youngest child, being born in SEP 1892. His Mother Julia died 13 months later, in OCT 1893, when Oliver was 13 mos old. Oliver's father, the widower John BACCUS, was sent to the state hospital in Terrel in 1893-5 for depression (melancholia). He was sent back by his Father Benjamin for a second time in 1897-98, from which he never emerged. He ended his life by his own hand there. It is not surprising that Oliver's son listed someone other than Julia on his father's death certificate. Neither man had ever laid eyes on Julia beyond Oliver's first year of life in 1893. Oliver was the yiungest child of 6, and the family had been in disarray since Julia's death in 1893. The name on the death cert of 1947 is probably the woman who raised Oliver, and known in the family, and community as his "mother", though she was not his biological mother. Oliver's BACCUS grand-parents were both in their 70s when he was born, and they were both in their 80s and gone by 1905, the time Oliver reached 13yrs. It is probable that someone other that the BACCUS grandparents reared him as a child. Benjamin and Roxanne have stones in the BACCUS Cemetery, as well as Julia HOLLIDAY (Mother). When I visited BACCUS Cemetery in the late 1970s there was an unmarked Bois d'arc stake atop the grave next to Julia's, but no stone marker, and I have always speculated that the stake w! as to mark the resting place of her husband John. That being said, John BACCUS and Julia HOLLIDAY were clearly the parents of William Benjamin (1882), Minnie Ethel (1885), Verda Frances (1887), Grover Clifford (1889), Robert Lee (1890), and Oliver Ivy BACCUS (1892) I am still unable to positively identify Benjamin's wife Roxanne's lineage, and continue to seek help in proving that her surname was STOVALL, and that her family at least resided in Indiana.

Mary Elizabeth McKinney was the only full blood sister of my g-grandmother Cynthia Ann McKinney. They were the daughters of Daniel H. McKinney and Harriet Wallace of Greenville Co, SC. Harriet died in 1857, and Daniel married second Thomson/Thomsin; they are shown in the 1860 & 1870 Greenville Co, SC census records. Cynthia Ann was born April 06, 1850, Greenville Co, SC I have been given two different birth dates for Mary Elizabeth...March 30, 1851 and Nov. 13, 1854, Greenville Co, SC. The 1854 birth date seems to fit more closely with her childhood census records. I cannot find Mary Elizabeth McKinney ANYWHERE in 1880. I have found a marriage record in Collin Co, TX for Henry Clay Matthews and "Lizzie" McKinney (October 15, 1885). They are in Collin County for the 1900 & 1910 census records. Neither of those census records show that Mary E./"Lizzie" was born in SC AND her age on those census records is not "close enough" to convince me that she is "my" Mary Elizabeth McKinney. It is posted on line that she died in MO in 1924 (going from memory). There is no death certificate for her there. It is posted on line that he died at Terrel, TX. On "Find A Grave" he is listed for Terral, Jefferson Co, OK. Additionally, I found a SECOND Henry Clay Matthews married to a "Lizzie." ??????? This couple doesn't seem to fit either! I am trying to sort out information and document.
