Vol 11, 9to. 11 9tovem6er, 1992 President*• Message Thanksgiving is near, and as our thoughts turn to that national day of gratitude, I am reminded that every day there are things to be thankful for— among them, good friends, willing workers, people dedicated to getting the job done. You, the members of JCGS, exemplify these attributes, and I am grateful for each of you who has helped in any way to advance the cause of our genealogical society. I want to list some of the ways you have helped: increasing our membership by telling others about JCGS, helping to locate meeting places for our group, submitting materials for publication in Journeys, providing refreshments, calling to remind about meetings, obtaining documents, photographs, and other items for the Society's files, and constant encouragement and support. Then, there is the incredible job you have done on Jackson County Heritage, Volume I. We have received notes, phone calls, letters, etc., thanking us for making available this book on Jackson County families. I hope all the local members read the letter in the Sylva Herald from Mr. L. W. Allen. At this time mora than half of the consignment books received have been sold; if sales continue at the present rate, all the books will be gone before Christmas. The response has been just wonderful, and it is truly gratifying to have been a part of this project. Anyone who wishes to obtain a copy of the book should do so at once; cost is $50, plus $3.50 postage and handling if shipment is desired. Too, thanks are due for the materials submitted to be published in Journeys. You will notice that this issue is made up of articles submitted by members. We encourage you to continue to send Bible records, obituaries, articles from newspapers, cemetery censuses, or other information you think would be of interest to the membership. Perhaps you have done research on a family story that you would like to see published. The December issue will be the index for Volume II of Journeys and the list of members, but material is needed for the January issue. Please respond in your usual good fashion. Calendar December 10, 7t00 p.m., the annual meeting of the Society will be held at St. John's. Our constitution requires that an annual meeting be held for reports of the officers, the election of new officers, and the installation of those newly elected persons. We look forward to seeing all members who can possibly attend. Looking ahead: Society meetings will be held on January 14, February 11, March 11, and April 8. Mark your new calendar now for these dates and attend the meetings to support your new officers. * * * * * * * * We are somewhat belated in extending good wishes to our member Teresa Johnson, who was married to Danny Orr some weeks ago. Also, our sympathy is expressed to member Clyde Allison, who lost his mother a few days ago. We would like to have news items from members to publish in Journeys as a way of sharing with each other. We especially would like to hear from members who live outside Jackson County. All correspondence may be sent to the Society's address: P. 0. Box 2108, Cullowhee NC 28723.

Char las 8. Buchanan (This obituary, taken from the Old Savannah Baptist Church records, is submitted for publication by Chip Buchanan, great-great-great-grandson of Rev. Buchanan.) After a brief illness God in his infinite wisdom called his servant, Rev. Chas. S. Buchanan, from his earthly labors to receive his reward. Bro. Buchanan was born February 4, 1826, and was married to Minervia Green in 1848. To this union were borned twelve children, eight of whom are living, ninety-three grandchildren, and several great-grandchildren. This couple lived a peaceful Christian life bearing their trials and difficulties with patience until the death angel called the loving wife to the great beyond where there is no trouble November 1909. Uncle Charles joined the Old Savannah Baptist Church Sept. 13, 1845. He was ordained to the ministry June 10, 1877, and laid aside these earthly cares, took up heavenly bliss May 31, 1911. Rev. T. F. Deitz conducted the burial services. Whereas it has so pleased our kind Heavenly Father to remove from our midst this, our brother, Therefore be it resolved 1st, that while we bow in humble submission to the will of our Creator, we do not the less mourn the loss of our brother. 2nd, That our church has sustained an irreparable loss in the death of one of its most loyal members and capable advisers, the Sunday School a faithful worker, and the community a true and good citizen. 3rd, That we extend our heartfelt sympathy to the family of the deceased and commend them to the Heavenly Father. 4th, That a' copy of these Resolutions be spread upon the minutes of the Church and copies sent to the Jackson County Journal and to the Biblical Recorder for publication. Lula Ashe, W. C. Cagle, and R. W. Green, Committee Chip writes: "I got my copy of the obituary from Violet Melton (C. S. Buchanan's great-granddaughter who lives in Savannah Community today). But later when I got a copy of the Old Savannah Baptist Church records I found that this obituary is from that record. I read the church records word for word from the beginning of the church till about 1900 and this is far and away more impressive and informative than any other obituary in that time frame." 92-103 Items of Genealogical Interest in the Tuckaseigee Democrat January-May, 1892 (published on Wednesdays) January 6: A colored child, daughter of Adeline Gaither, having been left at home with only other small children last Thursday evening, caught fire and was so badly burned she died during the night.

The following eulogy, printed in the Jackson County Journal on December 16, 1910, was submitted for publication in "Journeys" by bis granddaughter, Willa Mae Dills Scrogge.) The untimely death of Sheriff William A. Henson was a stroke from which the people of Jackson County will be slow to recover. The county contained no better known or more generally beloved citizen. Be was universally esteemed by all classes and conditions of the population. Happily for our mountain section there is, practically, but one class, but, as Providence would have it there is a considerable per cent of our population who are not possessed of this world's goods, and those were special friends of Sheriff Henson, and were deeply grieved at news of his death. For a citizen to be loved and valued by the poor of the community is one of the surest proofs of his value as a man. Special emphasis is placed upon one phase of Sheriff Henson* s character--that of a good neighbor. To be a good neighbor implies a very great deal. It includes the principle which distinguishes the Christian from the pagan. "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." To be a good neighbor, then, a man must love. He must be a man of capacity for his divine element—love. Sheriff Henson was a lovable man. From the time he was a barefoot boy in Sunday School he was anxious to sacrifice something of personal use for the well-being of his neighbors. "These three, faith, hope and charity; but the greatest of these is charity"—love. Sheriff Henson was a man of toil. "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread." The late Count Tolstoy breathed new life into this divine injunction. This great philosopher and reformer--the greatest of the age--stripped himself of the purple of power, put on the plain garb of the peasant and toiled every day with his hands. He proved that actual, physical toil was necessary to the highest development of character. Sheriff Henson was a hard, steady toiler and contributed his full quota toward the execution of this command. From poverty and obscurity he literally labored himself and his family into material competency leadership. and civil and moral ^^ Sheriff Henson was a perfect gentleman. He was a typical citizen. He was a model Christian. What more could be said by way of favor? From poor orphan boy to the high sheriff of his native county and thence to the beautiful, but laborious, life of the thrifty farmer, and thence by accident to the grave. His career was one of unspoiled honor and respectability. Personally Sheriff Henson was one of the most amiable of men. He was clear-eyed, open countenanced, and cordial without the semblance of affectation. There was no loudness in his make-up. He was plain, pleasant, kindly Sheriff Henson every day in the year. But he has gone where such as he are kings indeed. Rings in the royalty of their welcome and the richness of their reward. Let the young men of Jackson emulate his example and thereby learn that love, industry, and morality are first essentials to good citizenship. James H. Cathey In the Jackson County Journal on June 8, 1906, and reprinted in Historic Webster. Winter 1978, was this announcement from Sheriff Henson: To the Good Citizens of Jackson County: I have served you as sheriff for six years and two years as county commissioner. My record is before the people. If it is the wish of the people to retain me longer you will please give me the sheriff's office this time; as that office suits me better than commissioner. If you do not desire that I serve you any longer I am willing to retire to private life and be one of the humble citizens. Respectfully, W. A. HENSON \ y \ y 92-106 Civil War Lattara of John J. Buchanan ^ ^ ^ John J. Buchanan resided in Jackson County and enlisted at age 26, May 30, 1861, as a private in Co. B., 25th Regiment, N.C. Troops. He was present or accounted for until he died in hospital at Petersburg, Va., July 8, 1864, of "chronic diarrhoea." John Buchanan married Margaret Wilson Buchanan, and they were great-great-grandparents of Irene Bryson McClure, who submitted this material for publication. Four original letters were in the possession of Lydia Cordelia Buchanan Bryson, Irene's mother. On Sept. 1, 1861, John J. wrote to his wife Margaret: "from Camp Clingman, Asheville, N.C, moved to southeast side of Asheville, about three quarters of a mile from town into a pine thicket. Our hard times is now commenst, our officers hear the head officers they now begin to beare down on us...now think it harde times now but we don't no anything about it.

"In camp, Beauforte District S.C. December the 22nd, 1861 Rinde and Beloved Wife, I take my pen in hand to inform you that I am yet alive and enjoying terrible good health at preset hoping theas times may finde you well and doing well I received your kinde letter last evening bearing date Nov. the twenty ninth. . . .

The works is about a mile below here and we have to garde the works day and night as if the thought the Yankies would take it from you. You will please give my beste respects to all my friends and particular those that is good friends." Camp Lee S. C. Jan. 31, 1862 He asks about the health of Margaret and their children. He tells her not to worry about him as he "has graduated in the military school now." He says he is sending something by D. D. Davis such as paper, envelopes and stamps and an overcoat. He is sending a letter to Margaret's father and one to Nathaniel Dietz. He writes his son (Delonas) a letter in answer to one where he had lost his little brother. He told his father he had two pigs in the pen. His father told him to kiss his sister's sweet cheaks and tell her howdy. 92-107 Jackson County Hamas in Hamilton, Washington, Cemetery One of the most interesting migrations in Jackson County history was the movement of so many of our county's residents to the state of Washington. One phase of the out-migration occurred in the 1880's, another just after the turn of the century, and still another in the 1930*s. The reasons for the movement were primarily economic, and the Pacific Northwest offered opportunity which was familiar to Jackson Countians—logging and timber. As younger family members joined older ones, a substantial "Tar Heel" community has existed in most of the towns north of Seattle toward the Canadian border. Hamilton is a Skagit River town east of Sedro-Woolley toward the Cascades. The cemetery census, which makes no attempt to be comprehensive, was completed July 15, 1992, by Jean Brown and Larry Crawford. Known maiden names are shown in parentheses. v ^ Blanton, George Manuel 4/30/1875 - 4/23/1954 Estella Robinson 3/12/1884 - 1/12/1952 Benjamin R. 7/03/1920 - 12/12/1990 Robert F. 2/13/1914 - 7/30/1987 Ensley, Mary Jane 1906 - 1971 Ensley, L.
