Punta Gorda, Fl. 33955 BOGARD, ELDER, HEDGECOKE, MCGEHEE, SAMPSON, STONE, THARPE posted by Jack on Saturday, May 24, 1997 My great great grandfather was John MCGEHEE who was born in 1810 in Tennessee. I know nothing about him or his family at all. He married Sarah ? who was born in Ky in 1810 (this all from a 1850 census so there is possibility for error) and by 1836 they were living in Illinois and had one son named Marion. Then they moved on to Mo where the rest of thier children were born. In 1850 they were living in Carroll county Arkansas and all the children were listed as being born in Mo accept Marion. I have speculated since they all lived so close to the Mo border, (Carroll county is on the border with Mo) that they may have believed they were in Mo when they may have been in Ark all along. I dont have any census records at all of them living in Mo or any other McGehee's during the right time frame for that matter. Their children were: Marion, 1836 Ill (no information at all) Alexander 1842 Mo (married Sarah THARPE) Sidney 1843 Mo (Married Richard Hartzog) SAMPSON 1845 Mo (Married "Delia") *James 1847 Mo (Married Carintha A ELDER) Martha 1849 Mo (married Thomas Washington BOGARD) The birth years may be off by one or two. I am not looking at it right now Im doing this by memory. but they are not of by more than that. If you need me too I can get you exact dates. Anyway, The James born in 1847 is my Great grandfather. He was killed in Jack county around 1880 after his wife had already died in late 1870's. His son, my grandfather was Albert Lee McGehee, who was born in 1868 in texas, probably Grayson County. Albert Lee had three brothers and one sister. His brothers were James Frank McGehee, Thomas M McGehee and John W McGehee. His sister was Mary Ellen McGehee. Albert Lee died in 1935 in Mason county Texas. He married Dona Gertrude STONE in 1909 and they had seven Kids. According to my information when James (Albert's father) died Albert Lee was old enough to take care of himself, however he still went to live with his uncle Ben ELDER, probably in Montague county. Mary Ellen went to live with her mothers cousin, John HEDGECOKE. James Frank, who went by "Frank" went to live with another Hedgecoke Cousin in Witchita Falls, and Thomas M McGehee, or "Tom" as He was called went to live in LIberal Kansas with another Hedgecoke cousin. Tom's story is the least documented or understood of all. He may have died young, Im not sure. Finally John W, or "Johnny" went to live with a Doctor in the area. His family still lives in Jack county. I have contacted some of them. Anyway, That is about it. I cant think of anything else off the top of my head. My big searches now is for Tom and Franks families, why and where Carintha A Died, and then of course anything I can find about my great great grandfather John and his past or family. I would love to correspond with you. If I can be of any assistance I would love to help you. Thanks and have a wonderful day. -Jack McGehee BLICKENSDERFER, PLEAK, PLEAKANSTALVER, VAN PLEAK posted by M. Plake & D.
