****************************************************
Kindred Allison Partin, son of Sarah C. "Sallie" and William Partin, was born 1799-1800 in Edgefield County, South Carolina. Kindred married Henrietta "Retta" Forrest sometime before or about 1816-1817 probably in Edgefield County, South Carolina, although no actual records have been located. The marriage date is based upon the birthdate of their eldest child, Enoch Partin, who's birthdate has been documented as being May of 1818 in Edgefield County, South Carolina.
William Partin, was born ca. 1765 in Edgefield County, South Carolina, and died about 1844 in Monroe County, Alabama. William was the son of Charles Partin, Sr. born 16 March 1733 in Surry Co., Virginia and died about 1813 in Edgefield County, South Carolina and married Ann Watson who died before 1820 in Edgefield County, South Carolina. Charles Partin, Sr. was the son of Joanna (?) and William Partin, who was born 1708 in Virginia and died 17 November 1787 in Sussex County, Virginia. William Partin was the son of Robert Partin born ca. 1660-70 in Virginia, died before 1714 in Surry County, Virginia; and his wife Elizabeth Rawlings, died 1733 in Surry County, Virginia, daughter of Mary Sowerby Collier and John Rawlings. Mary Sowerby Collier, born about 1657, was the daughter of Francis Sowerby. John Rawlings, born about 1650-4, died 1702, was the son of Elinor Hux and John Rawlings.
In referring to the parents and siblings of Kindred Allison Partin, James T. "Jim" Williams, a direct descendant through John Septimus Partin, wrote a letter including the following observations:
"Kindred's father was William Partin, son of Charles Partin, Sr. of Edgefield County, South Carolina. In the late 1820's he [William] disposed of his land and moved to Monroe County, Alabama along with his two brothers Charles Jr. and Ezekiel. Ezekiel died about 1829; his wife Pamelia Sisson and children stayed in Monroe County until 1844 when they moved to Lauderdale County, Mississippi. William died in Monroe County until 1844 when they moved to Lauderdale County, Mississippi. William died in Monroe County in 1844. His wife Sara "Sallie" died 3 years before. Several references of William are found in the minutes of Bethany Baptist Church at Burnt Corn. These minutes establish when William and his wife died. Charles, Jr. appears on the 1830 Census for Monroe County but he disappears after that and probably died before 1840.
My great great grandfather, Kindred Partin and his wife Henrietta Forrest moved to Laurens County Georgia in 1823 according to the obituary of Henrietta. Four of his sons, Enoch, Sugar, John Septimus and William all served in the Confederate Army. Another son Pleasant, while physically unfit for service, was part of the home guard. Andrew Jackson Thompson, husband of his daughter Francis, was also a Confederate Soldier."
On 20 April 1884 in Laurens County, Georgia, Kindred Allison Partin died. He is believed to have been laid to rest in the Thompson Cemetery in Laurens County, Georgia along with other family members. No markers for his grave have ever been located.
Henrietta "Retta" Forrest was the daughter of Mr. Jesse Forrest; the name of Retta's mother is not known at this time. From information located in her obituary, dated 22 March 1877, which stated "...age 79", it seems probable that Retta was born about 1798 in Edgefield County, South Carolina. Retta died 16 March 1877 in Laurens County, Georgia. She too, as was her husband, was probably buried in Thompson Cemetery in Laurens County, Georgia.
Seemingly, Kindred had property in Berrien County, Georgia that was disposed of after his death by his legal heirs. A document was located in Nashville, Berrien County, Georgia dated 5 October 1887, between the heirs of Kindred Partin: Enoch Partin of Thomas County, Georgia; W. B. Partin and Pleasant Partin of Pulaski County, Georgia; J. S. Partin of Laurens County, Georgia; and George and Amelia Partin of Florida; and A. J. & Mrs. Francis Thompson. This document transferred the property to his daughter and son-in-law, Francis Partin Thompson and Andrew Jackson Thompson, Sr. The signatures of Enoch Partin, S. J. Partin, Pleasant Partin, W. B. Partin, I. S. Partin and Pernelia Partin appear on the Transfer Of Property document, which was duly recorded 18 February 1909. The following excerpts are the first and last paragraph of that document.

The document above shows "S. J. Partin", who in actuality was Sugar James Partin; and it shows "W. B. Partin" who is William Benson Partin. The "I. S. Partin" is judged to be John Septimus Partin. The "I. S. Partin is an error in the transcribing the original handwritten document in which the old script J was erroneously mistaken for an I; and error that was easily made in many old handwritten documents. The document was transcribed about 1909 when it was refilled in Pulaski County, Georgia; that transcribed version of the Transfer of Property attest to the indecision of the typist as to which letter is correct. Both and L, J. and finally an I have been typed over one another proving that the flourished script was difficult to decipher It is not clear at this point who George and Amelia Partin are; there are no signatures for George and Amelia Partin on the document; but, they are not the children of Henrietta Forrest and Kindred Allison Partin. James T. "Jim" Williams, a descendant of Kindred Allison Partin through his son John Septimus Partin and his wife Mary Amanda Witherington Partin offers a very good theory concerning the relationship of George and Amelia Partin:
"I believe they are children of a son David who may have died before 1850. He may have moved to Florida before 1850 but if so I have found no record. George and Amelia are shown living in Florida in 1887 but I have not been able to loate what happened to them."
It was entirely common for a deceased child not to be mentioned in a transfer of property since the immediate concern were the living heirs. If David Partin, who is found in other records of Laurens County, Georgia was indeed the son of Kindred Allison Partin and David did die before 1850 and he was the father of George and Amelia Partin, they they would emphatically be heirs of Kindred Allison Partin.
The above mentioned theory of David Partin is again corroborated by the following circumstantial evidence.
[One:] The Transfer of Property document has no signature of any of the wives of Kindred's sons, so
[Two:] it is relatively safe to state that "Pernelia Partin" who signed the paper is not Caroline Permelia Vinson Partin, second wife of John Septimus Partin.
[Three:] George and Ameila Partin did not sign the document, therefore
[Four:] it is again safe to presuppose that they were minors and had not yet reached legal age, upholding the idea that
[Five:] a guardian, probably their mother, would have to sign in their behalf;
[Six:] therefore the signature of Pernelia Partin.
These six points in this concept appears to strengthen the circumstantial evidence that there was indeed another child of Kindred Allison Partin, who is accepted to be David Partin of Laurens County, Georgia; and, George and Amelia Partin mentioned as heirs of Kindred Partin in the Transfer of Property record are the children of said David Partin; and Perneila Partin who signed the document as an "heir" of Kindred Partin was the indeed the mother of George and Amelia and the widow of David Partin.
The obituary of Kindred Allison Partin appeared in Volume 18, Number 18, Thursday Morning, 1 May 1884, of The Hawkinsville Dispatch, the local newspaper of Hawkinsville, Georgia as quoted below.
"Kindred Partin died in the eighty-fourth year of his age in Laurens County, Georgia on the 20th of April 1884. He was the father of Mr. Pleas Partin and the grandfather of the Partin brothers of Hawkinsville. Speaking of his death, the last issue of the Dublin Gazette says: From infancy, when pratting upon the knees of the deceased, we have known him personally and knew him to be honest, upright man, none can say aught against his character. The good name he leaves behind is tribute sufficient to his memory. For many years he had been an earnest fateful member of the Baptist Church."
On Thursday morning, 22 March 1877, shortly after her death, an obituary was printed for Mrs. Henrietta Partin in Volume 11, Number 22 of The Hawkinsville Dispatch. This article was apparently written by her grandson, John Kindred Partin, son of Pleasant P. Partin. John K. Partin was the Marshal of Hawkinsville, Georgia at this time. The obituary is as seen below:
"Died, in Laurens County, Georgia, on the 16th inst., Mrs. Henrietta Partin, and 79 years. Deceased moved from Edgefield County, South Carolina to Laurens County in 1823. She was a consistent member of the Baptist Church for upwards of forty years, and was highly esteemed and dearly beloved by all who knew her. She leaves a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn her loss. Farewell grandmother. J.K.P."
The marriage of Henrietta "Retta" Forrest and Kindred Allison Partin brought forth a sizable family. There were believed to be seven children from this marriage; six known children: Enoch Partin, Pleasant P. Partin, Sugar James Partin, William Benson Partin, Francis Partin and John Septimus Partin, another son David Partin has not yet been proved although substantial circumstantial evidence support the believe that he too is a child of this marriage.
Enoch Partin, eldest son of Henrietta "Retta" Forrest and Kindred Allison Partin, was born May 1818 in Edgefield County, South Carolina. He died 1900 in Thomas County, Georgia. Enoch served in the Confederate States Army in Co. K., 28th Bn. Georgia Siege Artillery; enlisting in 1862. He would later receive a Confederate Pension for his service to the Confederacy. Enoch married twice: first to Mary Salter on 9 March 1848 in Laurens County, Georgia (no children); and the second time to Martha A. T. "Toby" Clark.
Enoch married Martha A. T. "Toby" Clark, daughter of Sarah (?) and Thomas Clark, on 12 December 1856 in Jefferson County, Florida. Martha was believed to have been born about 1837 in Florida; it is not known the exact date when she died; but, she was buried 1937 in Fredonia Baptist Church Cemetery in Thomas County, Georgia. This perceived information suggest that she had probably reached the century mark of age. Both Enoch and Martha were members of the Fredonia Baptist Church in Thomas County, Georgia. From their marriage were born two children: Virginia Partin and Eldridge "Bunk" Partin.
Pleasant P. Partin, second son of Henrietta "Retta" Forrest and Kindred Allison Partin, was born in 1825 and died 24 November 1887 in Hawkinsville, Pulaski County, Georgia, and was buried in Orange Hill Cemetery. Orange Hill Cemetery had previously been named Orange Grove Cemetery. Although he was "physically unfit for service" Pleasant served during the Civil War as part of the "Home Guard" and can be found listed on those rolls in Pulaski County, Georgia
Pleasant Partin married twice: first to Amelia Love and second to Margaret Williams. There were no children from his second marriage. Amelia Love and Pleasant P. Partin had four children from their marriage: Elizabeth Partin, born ca. 1843; John Kindred Partin, born ca. 1844; Robert Love Partin, born 9 August 1849; and, Warren S. Partin, born ca, 1852.
The obituary of Pleasant P. Partin originated in Volume 21, Number 48, Thursday Morning, 1 December 1887, of The Hawkinsville Dispatch, and can be seen as follows:
"Mr. Pleasant Partin, an old citizen of this town and county, departed this life on the 24th day of November, 1887, in the 64th year of his age. He died at the home of his son, Mr. John K. Partin. The remains were buried in Orange Hill Cemetery with religious services by Rev. E. M. Whiting."
Pleasant Partin was buried beside his wife in the Partin Lot in the Orange Hill Cemetery in Pulaski County, Georgia. His grave, still unmarked, is now ready for the setting of a CSA Military marker.
Amelia Love Partin, wife of Pleasant P. Partin was born about 1818; she was the daughter of Betsy Hall and John Love, Sr.; and died 12 March 1872 in Hawkinsville, Pulaski County, Georgia, and was buried in the Orange Grove Cemetery (this cemetery was later renamed Orange Hill Cemetery). Her obituary in the Hawkinsville, Georgia newspaper, The Hawkinsville Dispatch, Volume 6, Number 11, Thursday, 14 March 1872, was concise and is seen below:
"Mrs. Partin, mother of Marshal John K. Partin, died here on Thursday evening last after a protracted illness. He remains were interred in Orange Grove Cemetery Wednesday afternoon."
Sugar James Partin, third son of Henrietta "Retta" Forrest and Kindred Allison Partin, was born 2 March 1827 in Laurens County, Georgia. He served in the Confederate States Army during the Civil War in Co. A. 66th Regiment of the Georgia Infantry, enlisting on 23 May 1863. Sugar would later receive a Confederate Pension for his service to the Confederacy.
He married Elizabeth Manning, daughter of Elfa "Effie" Currie and Reuben Manning, who was born about 1832 And died sometime before 1882. After Elizabeth's death, Sugar remarried Mrs. Carolina Permelia Vinson, but no issue came from this marriage.
Elizabeth Manning and Sugar James Partin had seven children born to their marriage: Lula Partin, birthdate unknown; Fulwood Partin, Born about 1853; William H. Partin, born about 1858; Joseph Marion Partin, born 15 August 1860; Mary Elizabeth Partin, born 16 October 1863; Sarah F. Partin, born 16 October 1864; and John Partin, born about 1868.
Sugar James Partin was accidentally killed on 8 January 1905 in Danville, Georgia during a visit to the home of his daughter and son-in-law, Mary Elizabeth Partin and John Richmond Lamb. It is recounted that he was kicked by a mule; the blow landing full on the chest; uttered the words, "Ole Lord" with his dying breath and fell to the ground. He was buried near his brother, William Benson Partin, in Cedar Hill Cemetery, unmarked; but, in recent years a CSA marker has been placed at the gravesite.
William Benson Partin, fourth son of Henrietta "Retta" Forrest and Kindred Allison Partin, was born 22 February 1835 in Laurens County, Georgia and died 26 August 1901 in Pulaski County, Georgia; he is buried in Cedar Hill Cemetery. William served in the Confederate States Army in Company C. 57th Georgia Infantry comporting to a pension application filed by him for his service during the Civil War. He married Mary Ann Sauls on 21 November 1860 in Twiggs County, Georgia.
Mary Ann Sauls Partin was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Theotlius Sauls, and was born 25 December 1843 in Twiggs County, Georgia; she died 22 July 1903 in Pulaski County, Georgia and is buried there unmarked in Cedar Hill Cemetery. Mary filed a Confederate Widow's Pension Application and listed vital information on herself.
Mary Ann Sauls and William Benson Partin had only two children born to their marriage and tragically lost both sons on the same day: Lucius T. Partin, born about 1864 and died at age 18; and Henry L. Partin, born about 1867 and died at age 15; both died on 8 August 1882 in Cochran, Pulaski County, Georgia.
Francis Partin, only daughter of Henrietta "Retta" Forrest and Kindred Allison Partin, was born 23 June 1837 in Laurens County, Georgia and married Andrew Jackson Thompson, Sr., on 15 February 1855 in Laurens County, Georgia. It was to this couple that the property owned by Kindred Allison Partin in Pulaski County, Georgia was transferred to in the document that was located in Nashville, Berrien County, Georgia, dated 5 October 1887 (see pages 1 and 2 of this article for copy of the document).
Andrew Jackson Thompson, Sr., was a wealthy merchant, Confederate Veteran, a Methodist, and a resident of Pulaski County, Georgia; and according to his obituary he was born 30 March 1832 near Toches, Virginia. He died 25 September 1911 in Cochran, Pulaski County, Georgia and was buried in the Weeping Pines Cemetery in Cochran, Georgia. The Weeping Pines Cemetery was later changed to Cedar Hill cemetery. Andrew served in the Confederate States Army in Company C. 57th Georgia Infantry along with his brother-in-law, William Benson Partin and James R. Witherington, the brother-in-law of John Septimus Partin. Andrew later received a Confederate Pension for his service to the Confederacy.
His obituary was printed on Thursday, 28 September 1911 in the Cochran, Georgia newspaper, The Cochran Journal on the front page and originated as follows:
A. J. THOMPSON DIED MONDAY NIGHT
"A. J. Thompson, Sr., one of the oldest, most prominent, and highly esteemed citizens of Cochran and Pulaski County, died at his residence Monday night at eleven o'clock after quite an extended period of feeble health.
The funeral services were conducted at the methodist church at 3:00 P.M. Tuesday by Rev. J. B. Friner, assisted by Rev. W. H. Parks, of this city and Presiding Elder Hill, of the McRae district.
The pall bearers were Dr. A. A. Smith, G. W. Jordan, Jr. and Z. V. Peacock of Hawkinsville, W.O. Peacock, J. G. Wright, T. D. Walker, Sr., W. E. McVaym and W. E. Dunham, of this city.
The church was full of people, there being quite a number from Hawkinsville. After the services the body followed by one of the longest funeral processions that ever winded its way to Weeping Pines Cemetery, and was there deposited amid a large concourse of sorrowing friends and relatives.
Mr. Thompson was 79 years old when he died. He was born near Toches, Virginia and moved to Laurens County, Georgia when he was 18 years old. Moving to Cochran in 1878. Mr. Thompson started life as a poor boy without a dollar. He peddled tobacco from Virginia to Georgia when he first came to this county, and when he retired from active business about four years ago he was regarded as one of the wealthiest and successful business men in this section of the country. He had extensive business connections and a large landed interest in Pulaski; was connected with the oil mill, cotton mill, and both banks in Cochran, and was also interested in the oil mill and First National Bank of Hawkinsville. He and his son, M. Thompson, built the Handsome Hotel Kemper in Hawkinsville.
He was a member and strong supporter of the Methodist Church: a brave Confederate soldier, serving his country with honor and distinction throughout the entire war, and after that eventful struggle without a dollar, by splendid business acumen and wise management, he achieved unusual success. He was married to Miss Francis Partin, of Laurens County in 1855 and their wedded life covered a period of 57 years. Fourteen children were born to them but only five survive. M. Thompson, of Hawkinsville; W. G. Thompson, of Montrose; K. A. Thompson, Jr., and J. B. Thompson, of this city, all prominent in the business and social lives of their respective communities. The deceased is also survived by his widow, to whom much of his success is attributed for her wise council, splendid management, and her long and ever fateful devotion that contributed to the welfare of her highly esteemed and lamented companion."
Although, as enunciated in the above obituary, fourteen children were born to this marriage, not all survived. Information on six of those children is known: Kindred Allison Thompson, Sr., born 4 March 1857; Ida G. Thompson, born 14 May 1880; Morgan Thompson, born 27 May 1869; Andrew Jackson Thompson, Jr., born 6 November 1871; J. Barkwell Thompson, born 17 February 1877; and Wilbur Graham Thompson, born 25 September 1878.
Francis Partin Thompson, widow of Andrew Jackson Thompson, Sr., and daughter of Henrietta "Retta" Forrest and Kindred Allison Partin, died 4 October 1914 in Cochran, Bleckley County, Georgia, at the early age of 79 years; and was laid to rest at the side of her husband in the Weeping Pines Cemetery (later renamed Cedar Hill Cemetery) in Cochran.
It seems that this is the appropriate place to inject some vital facts about Cochran, Hawkinsville, Pulaski County and Bleckley County. Prior to 1912, two major cities dominated the county of Pulaski, with Hawkinsville being the county seat. In 1912 Pulaski County was resized and new borders redrawn with part of the county being reformed into a new county. From this reorganization of Pulaski County came the new county of Bleckley with Cochran now being the new county seat. It is important to keep these fact in mind when dealing with the dates before and after 1912, because it was at this time that Cochran became a part of the new county of Bleckley. So, there is Cochran, Pulaski County, Georgia prior to 1912, and Cochran, Bleckley County, Georgia after 1912, although the are one and the same city.
Francis' obituary appeared on Thursday, 8 October 1914 in Volume 7, Number 8 of The Cochran Journal as follows:
DEATH OF MRS. A. J. THOMPSON, SR.
"Mrs. A. J. Thompson, Sr., age 79, died at the family residence here at 4 o'clock last Sunday afternoon. Her body was interred in Weeping Pines Cemetery the following afternoon at 2 o'clock.
Anthony the Methodist Presiding Elder conducted the ceremony assisted by Revs. Lester
Walker of the Methodist and Baptist churches of this city. Mrs. Thompson was the wife of A. J. Thompson, Sr. a prominent and wealthy merchant and farmer of our city who died September 25th, 1911.
Mrs. Thompson joined the Methodist church in 1855, she was an exceptionally fine character an ideal mother and a strong helpmate, who was a great factor in the building up, maintaining and taking care of the large estate of her husband. He husband's success was in a great measure attributed to her industry, good judgment and wise economy. She filled two of the highest stations in life with rare and exceptional success, that of the christian mother and wife, and has left an inestimable legacy to her children. She is survived by four sons, K. A. Thompson and J. B. Thompson of this city, Morgan Thompson, of Hawkinsville and W. G. Thompson of Montrose."
John Septimus Partin, youngest child of Henrietta "Retta" Forrest and Kindred Allison Partin, was born 7 April 1838 in Laurens County, Georgia; he died in March 1906 and is buried unmarked in Thompson Cemetery in Laurens County, Georgia. He served in the Confederate States Army in Co. E., 4th Georgia Calvary during the Civil War, and fought in the battle of Missionary Ridge and many other battled around Atlanta and the surrounding areas. John would later receive a Confederate Pension for his service during the Civil War.
John married first on 13 January 1865 in Laurens County, Georgia to Mary Amanda Witherington, daughter of Nancy Keen and James Witherington. Mary's mother, Nancy Keen, was the daughter of Elizabeth Curlee and John Keen a veteran of the Revolutionary War.
Mary Amanda Witherington was born 15 September 1841 in Laurens County, Georgia; and, she died 24 August 1884 in Laurens County, Georgia. Mary had been married previously to John F. Faircloth, who had been killed during the Civil War; Mary and John F. Faircloth had one daughter named "Lizzie" Faircloth
From their marriage were born six children: Pernetta "Nettie" Partin, born 2 February 1866; William Kindred Partin, born 28 October 1866; Nancy Luretha Partin, born May, 1871; Charles S. Partin, born 14 July 1873; Alonzo J. "Lonnie" Partin, born July, 1875; and Mary Henrietta Partin, born 18 August 1876.
After Mary Amanda Witherington Partin died John Septimus Partin married a second time to Carrie Phigpen, but no issue came form this marriage.
Virginia Partin, believed to be the oldest of the two children of Martha A. T. "Toby" Clark and Enoch Partin, was born about 1858 in Thomas County, Georgia; and, she married W. H. Benton on 4 May 1855 in Thomas County, Georgia. Nothing more is known about Virginia Partin Benton or her descendants.
Eldridge "Bunk" Partin, only son of Martha A. T. "Toby" and Enoch Partin, was born 9 November 1859 in Thomas County, Georgia; and he died 2 December 1942 in Thomasville, Thomas County, Georgia. Bunk married Florence Amanda Bond on 30 June 1881 in Madison County, Florida. Florence Amanda Bond Partin, preceded her husband in death on 11 December 1937 and was buried in Fredonia Cemetery in Thomas County, Georgia.
From this marriage were born: S. A. Partin; D. A. Partin; A. G. Partin; Elfeta Partin, Annie Partin; and one unnamed daughter who was married t a Mr. Bird.
Eldridge "Bunk" Partin's obituary was printed in the Thomasville Times Enterprise, the local Thomasville, Georgia newspaper on Wednesday, the 2nd of December 1942, and can bee seen as follows:
MR. ELDRIDGE "BUNK" PARTIN DIED EARLY THIS MORNING
DEATH CLAIMS AGED AND WELL KNOWN THOMAS COUNTY MAN -- FUNERAL TOMORROW
"It is with regret that many friends will learn of the passing of Mr. Eldridge "Bunk" Partin this morning at the home of his son, Mr. S. A. Partin on Bartow Street. A few weeks ago Mr. Partin suffered a severe fracture of his hip and has been confined to the hospital and his home since that time, death resulting from the effect of the injury and old age complications.
Funeral services at the Whiddon Funeral Home at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon with the Rev. R. L. Bond of Atlanta officiating. Internment will take place at Fredonia Church, of which he has been a member for many years. Pallbearers will be Messers. George Neel, Elmo Chastain, W. M. Covington, W. L. Ball, B. F. Herring and F. V. Eidson.
Mr. Partin was born in Thomas County and was one of its oldest citizens. His birthdate was November 9th 1859. He was a son of Enoch and Toby Partin and has lived at the present home place for many years, where his children were born and reared. Mrs. Partin died December 11th 1937, and is buried at Fredonia. The surviving sons are Messrs. S. A. Partin of Thomasville; D. A. Partin of Fernandina; A. G. Partin of Pontiac, Mich., and there is one daughter, Mrs. W. A. Curtis of this city. There are sixteen grandchildren and four great grandchildren.
For Many years Mr. Partin owned a farm in this county and became one of its most active and successful operators. He loved the work and he spent most of his time at it and in the confines of his home. He had many friends among the older people and also knew many of the younger ones and the news of his death will be known with great regret by the loved ones and those outside to who he had become attached by long years of association...."
Eldridge Partin's will was recorded and probated in Thomasville, Thomas County, Georgia; and, it can be located in Will "Book N", pages 319-324. It names "S. A. Partin"; "grandson, Fred Morris"; "son-in-law, Lee Morris, widow of my deceased daughter Annie"; "daughter, Elfeta Curtis"; "son, D. A. Partin"; "grandson, Sanchez Bird"; and "son, A. G. Partin".
John Kindred Partin, son of Amelia Love and Pleasant P. Partin, was born about 1844 in Georgia. It was stated in the 1872 obituary of his mother that he was Marshal of Hawkinsville at the time of her death, but in 1873 he wrote a letter from Smith County, Texas. Also, on 28 September 1876 John Kindred Partin married Miss Susan Newman in Pulaski County, Georgia. Again, in 1877 it is indicated the John is again Marshal of Hawkinsville from the obituary of his grandmother.
From this it emerges that between 12 March 1872 and 28 September 1876, John Kindred Partin moved to Smith County, Texas. But, later returned to Georgia, probably due to severe homesickness as implied in the following letter which John wrote to Mr. George P. Woods in Pulaksi County, Georgia from Smith County, Texas. Considering the letter contained information about former residents of Hawkinsville, it was surly thought to be newsworthy by local publishers, as it was published in The Hawkinsville Dispatch, Volume 7, Number 45 on Thursday Morning, 6 November 1873. The letter was dated 23 October 1873, probably taking that span of time for the mail to reach from Texas to Georgia.
Dear Sir--
I have just returned from a visit of ten days to the old man William Hendley's. I found him and family well, and apparently doing well. He speaks of returning to Georgia on a visit during the fall.
I had the pleasure of meeting our old friend, Demsy Baker. He looks well. I had a long talk with him, and he told me he was getting along well. He seems pleased with Texas, and says he would not go back to Georgia for five miles square of the country where he lived. He showed me a bag of gold, and said, "This is Texas, and this is what makes the mare go."
While I was at Hendley's I witnessed the marriage of his son, L. L. Hendley, to Miss Mollie Reaves. The ceremony was performed by Rev. M.M. Wadsworth, and the attendants of the Happy couple were Mr. N. L. Davis, of Etna, and Miss Sallie Reaves, of Whitehouse; Mr. D. Harden, of Whitehouse, and Miss Edna Hendley, of Etna. All of them old Georgians, and now residents of Smith County, Texas.
I have also to announce two deaths -- one being Mr. James Cone, the son of old Thomas Cone. He lived in Cherokee County, Texas, on the 15th of October. The other is Mrs. Margaret Thompson, daughter of Mr. Jobe Smith, who is well known to people of your county.
I received a copy of the Dispatch yesterday. Please don't atop it, for it is better than any letter I get from home. I spend some happy hours reading it.
Yours Truly,
J. K. Partin
