| 43 | A peek into the past! William S. Maples' mother, Emily Melvina, daughter of Elias Welborn. From the Indian & Pioneer History Interviews of 1930s by WPA workers, Okla. Hist. Soc. Ethel D. Pfeiffer, Field Worker June 5, 1937 Interview with Mrs. W. S. Maples, Duke, Oklahoma, Route 1. Father: Joseph Guess Mother: Julia Margaret Groley My parents were born in Georgia. They reared a family of six boys and four girls. My four brothers, Jackson, Abram, Henry and Thomas, were all Civil War veterans. Abram died during the war, of pneumonia. My parents died in Texas. Father was sixty-five, and mother was fifty-eight at the time of her death. They were both buried at Omaha, Morris County, Texas. My Marriage I met and married William Starnes Maples at Glen Rose, Texas. We reared four children. We came to Greer County, Texas, on the 5th day of May, 1892. [See date below 1896] We came here in two covered wagons, and drove a bunch of cattle. We had to ford the rivers, and when we crossed deep Red River, the water ran into the wagon boxes, and damaged some of our groceries. Some of the men in our crowd rode horses and went ahead of the wagon to show the way and to see how deep the mud was; also to see that we didn't drive into water holes that had quick sand. These were very dangerous to the travelers from the East as they didn't know anything about quick sand. We saw plenty of deer, wild turkeys and prairie chickens. There were lots of buffalo bones over the prairies, but few lived and were left. This had been a good stock country. The Government sent some inspectors over Western Oklahoma and decided to open it up to settlement. This forced the cattlemen to go out of business, or to go to other states where they could have open range. This part of the State was then cut up into 160-acre tracts for settlers, and this was open to settlement May 4th, 1896. We saw lots of big herds of cattle when they were rounding them up and taking them to market. Sometimes they were a moving mass as far as you could see. On March 16, 1896, my husband filed on the NE1/4 of Section 9, T-2 North, Range 23 W, located two and one-half miles west of the present town of Duke, Oklahoma, which consisted of one general store and Post Office. Our land was only a claim before we filed, and had a one-room house on it. Water and Fuel Supply There was a well of gyp water on the place. We used it for stock water, and we had to haul our drinking water from a spring on Turkey Creek, some three miles away. We had a cook stove that we used to cook on and for heating purposes. We burned mesquite grubs. I remember one year we raised such a big corn crop that we couldn't sell it for enough to buy coal so we burned the corn for fuel that winter. School The neighbors went together and built a one-room school house. They called this "Cottonwood", and it was one and half miles from our house. This was where we sent our children to school, Sunday School, and Church. We had big meetings here in the summer time. The school terms were held in the fall and spring to avoid the blizzards of the winter. This school district was later consolidated with the Duke District, and the building moved away. Clothing When I was a girl I spun and wove the cloth for our clothes, dyed it with the dyes we made from barks and sumac berries. I made the cloth into garments by hand. I continued to make our clothes by hand until 1900, then I bought my first sewing machine. I knitted all the stockings, gloves, capes and caps for my family. We wore shawls with fringe all around them for wraps and always wore flannel underwear in winter. My sister and I knitted for the United States soldier boys during the World War. My sister died since, at the age of ninety years. Travel We traveled in wagons, hacks and buggies in the early days. These were drawn by one or two horses. When we came from Georgia we had two ox wagons and a two horse carriage for the family to ride in, but I have ridden many times in an ox cart, and ox wagon. Food We hauled our supplies from Quanah, at first. We made about three or four trips a year. We raised our meat, lard, and from the trimmings I made my own soap with lye. I made lye in an ash-hopper from wood ashes. We made our syrup from sorghum cane. We would haul the cane to the sorghum mill and have it made into syrup. We picked wild plums on the rivers; and we always had plenty of milk and butter; and too we had lots of chickens and plenty of eggs. I also raised ducks and made my own feather beds, and pillows. Indians The Indians came through the country on several occasions, but I never saw them except in parades. They would be dressed in their very best clothes, with bright colored shawls, their hair in long braids tied with bright colored strings or ribbons. The man would also have their hair in long braids. My husband died in 1917, and was buried at Rock Cemetery, three miles north of Duke, Oklahoma. We continued to live on the farm and carry on, as my two daughters were still at home with me. My two sons died many years ago and are also buried in the Rock Cemetery. I went through so many hardships, that I can't say I enjoyed the pioneer days or life, but I came to get a home, and about the only pleasure I got out of it was the fact that I had a good home. Despite the many, many difficulties that confront a pioneer father and mother, we had the pleasure of seeing our children get a good education. Our two daughters have each taught school, first in the one-room schools, then in the Union Graded five or six room schools, and then in the larger, more modern type of school. I have realized a great deal of pleasure out of their success.

| 50 | After the Federal Government built a road from Acmulgee River in Georgia to the Territory of Mississippi, Robert and his wife Sarah McColphin moved and bought land outside of Monticello, Mississippi the county seat of Lawrence County, Mississippi. A son by this union named William married and moved to his house not far from Monticello near the Hespegah Baptist Church. The archives in Jackson, Mississippi, state on the Microfilm this home as a beautiful two-story frame house that had stood in perfect condition for over a hundred years. William had many descendants and the family cemetery has the remains of many Daniels interred there. A family reunion is held at Hespigah Church every year. After Sarah's death, Robert married Sarah Morrow. From this union, a son Robert II, a sister Mary Ann who married Jacob Magee, Sarah Ann who married Abram Harvey, a son Willis who never married. William Daniel's two sisters were Delaney Daniel married Jesse Ward, Elizabeth Daniel married to Andrew Hartzog. Robert Daniel II and his second wife Sarah Morrow moved their family to Sandy Hook on Pearl River which is out from Varnado, Lousiana in Washington Parish. They purchased many acres of land and built a fine two-story home. They brought with them many slaves. Robert II died October 14, 1848. He was buried near the home designated as a family cemetery. There is no record I have found giving the birth and eath dates of Sarah Morrow. We assume that she was buried by Robert II. The family cemetery has an iron fence around it and the only tombstones are those of Robert II and his son Willis. A large old cedar tree stands inside with a climbing red rose reaching to the top. At Robert's death, his daughter, Sarah Ann, and her husband, Abram Harvey moved in with the widow, Sarah Morrow Daniel. Other than for the sake of companship, this arrangement seems a bit superfluous, for Grandma Morrow was a hustler, busting about wearning a chatelaine from which suspended a tremendous bunch of keys, and generally pretty capable of taking care of any situation. Her grandchildren say that this large Redheaded woman frequently held a slave in one hand and whipped him herself with the other. | Daniel, Robert (I1795)
