Greene County, Arkansas

Beliew Community

Many Greene Countians today well remember "Uncle Charlie" Beliew. Few citizens in the county have been better known, or more respected. And although his descendants are scattered throughout the county, years of search and inquiry has reveled that very little was known of Uncle Charlie's past. After numerous interviews with old-timers from the Lafe area, as well as a search of county records and U.S. census records, the following information was obtained.

Charles Cooper Beliew was born in Gibson County, Tennessee, on October 25, 1868. He was orphaned at an early age, and was taken to live with his uncle and aunt, Aaron and Nancy Beliew. He came with them from Dresden, Tennessee to Greene County in 1886. Aaron Beliew had purchased forty acres of land from the St. Louis Iron Mountain Railroad (Section 21, Twp. 18 No., Range 5 East) on July 10, 1886; and another forty acres adjoining this on August 9, 1897. One acre of this was donated by Mr. Beliew for establishing a Christian Church and adjacent cemetery. The remaining 79 acres were sold to Mr. L.P. Johns on Dec. 4, 1901. Both Nancy and Aaron Beliew died shortly after 1901 and were the first persons buried in the county graveyard. Both the church and the cemetery were referred to as "Beliew Hill".

Beliew Hill Church was a Christian Church, situated at the southwest corner of the cemetery. The old Beliew cabin was approximately 200 yards down from the southeast corner of the cemetery. Uncle Charlie grew up, and eventually bought much of the land in the area. The graves of Aaron and Nancy Beliew are marked only by small white concrete markers, bearing no inscriptions. For many years the two graves were covered with a brick mausoleum, but this gradually crumbled and was removed from the cemetery.

On May 17, 1891, Charlie Beliew was married to Sarah Emmaline Jamison, long known by friends and relatives as "Aunt Liney". To them were born four children: Hattie, who died at three days of age; Enos, who married Laura Swindle; Hoyt, who married Beulah Tarrance; later Pat Breckenridge; and Lillie May, who died at the age of seventeen, shortly after being married to Obe Owen.

The Beliew family remained in the Union - Breckenridge Township area for a number of years, continuing to farm. However, they later moved to Rector, where "Uncle Charlie" died July 18, 1958. "Aunt Liney" died October 10, 1962.

58 My father had no palette in his mouth and had a speech problem. He never went to school because he said the teachers could not understand his words. He always told me when he was very small, he was sickly so his mother put whiskey into his milk and that kept him alive. He was a great prospector and collected all kinds of rocks. He was a great swimmer and loved to go fishing. He was not much of a hunter, but could cook the best fried chicken ever tasted. He had several strokes and died due to Pneumonia which was complicated by the strokes. he was paralyzed after his strokes and unable to speak in his last days. He died with me sitting by his bed and holding his hand. My mother and her family always called him :Bill" but his friends and his family called him "Will". I always think of him as "Will".

I did find one other item relating to the children of James Duff and Mary Austin. In the Dumfries and Galloway Standard and Advertiser Newspaper of the 12th November 1856, Page 4, Column G, there is the announcement of the marriage of Isabella Duff, third daughter of James Duff, Coach-Driver, Royal Mail, Stranraer. She married James Johnston, a Slater, on the 29th October 1856, at Mount Pleasant, Dumfries, by the Rev J M Austin of St Mary’s. A Photocopy is enclosed. This indicates that James Duff was the Royal Mail Coach Driver for the Stranraer Mail Coach. [I checked out Rev John Mein Austin in case he was a relation of Mary Austin, James Duff’s wife, but it does not appear so as he was born in Edinburgh in 1819.]

THE DUFF FAMILY
I found Ann Duff in Dumfries:
Parish of Dumfries, enumeration District No 9, Household No 154, Place: Townhead. James Duff, head of household, married, aged 45, A Mail Coachman, born Kelton, Kirkcudbrightshire. Mary Duff, wife, married, aged 45, born Closeburn, Dumfriesshire. John Duff, son, unmarried, aged 20, A Labourer, Gatehouse, Kirkcudbrightshire. James Duff, son, unmarried, aged 17, A Draper, born Kelton, Kirkcudbrightshire. Ann Duff, daughter, aged 14, A Scholar, born Kelton, Kirkcudbrightshire. Samuel Duff, son, aged 11, A Scholar, born Kelton, Kirkcudbrightshire. George Duff, son, aged 9, A Scholar, born Kelton, Kirkcudbrightshire. Marion Duff, daughter, aged 6, A Scholar, born Kelton, Kirkcudbrightshire. James Houston, brother in law, married, aged 37, A General Labourer, born Closeburn, Dumfriesshire.
I also found the family in the 1841 Census, Castle Douglas, Kelton Parish, Kirkcudbrightshire. Enumeration District No 1, Page 1, Place: St Andrew’s Street. James Duff, aged 30, Male Servant, born Scotland, this county. Mary Duff, aged 30, Female Servant, born Scotland, not this county. Mary Duff, aged 14, born Scotland, not this county. Janet Duff, aged 12, A Bonnet Maker Apprentice, born Scotland, this county. John Duff, aged 10, born Scotland, this county. James Duff, aged 7, born Scotland, this county. Anne Duff, aged 4, born Scotland, this county. Samuel Duff, aged 2, born Scotland, this county.
Please note that the ages in the 1841 Census are rounded down to the nearest five years for over fifteens.
I searched for Duff family baptism in the Old Parish Registers. I could only find the ones below:
Girthon Old Parish Register: “Janet Duff, daughter of James Duff, Chaise Driver, and Mary Austin in Gatehouse, was baptized 2nd November 1828.” “John Duff, son of James Duff, Chaise Driver, and Mary Austin in Gatehouse, was baptized 25th July 1830.” “Isabella Duff, daughter of James Duff, Chaise Driver, and Mary Austin in Gatehouse, was baptized 22nd April 1832.” Kelton Old Parish Register: “Samuel Cowan Duff, son of James Duff, Driver, and Mary Austin in Castle Douglas, was baptized 21st July 1839.” “George Gordon Duff, son of James Duff, Driver, and Mary Austin in Castle Douglas, was baptized 5th September 1841.”
No other children’s baptisms were found, so in all James Duff and Mary Austin had the following children: Mary born circa 1827, Janet born in November 1828, John born in July 1830, Isabella born in April 1832, James born circa 1834, Anne born circa 1837, Samuel Cowan born in 1839, George Gordon born in 1841 and Marion born circa 1845.
James Duff was a Mail Coachman or Chaise Driver, and as the Mail Coaches would have also carried passengers in those days they are different descriptions of the same trade.
I did find one other item relating to the children of James Duff and Mary Austin. In the Dumfries and Galloway Standard and Advertiser Newspaper of the 12th November 1856, Page 4, Column G, there is the announcement of the marriage of Isabella Duff, third daughter of James Duff, Coach-Driver, Royal Mail, Stranraer. She married James Johnston, a Slater, on the 29th October 1856, at Mount Pleasant, Dumfries, by the Rev J M Austin of St Mary’s. A Photocopy is enclosed. This indicates that James Duff was the Royal Mail Coach Driver for the Stranraer Mail Coach. [I checked out Rev John Mein Austin in case he was a relation of Mary Austin, James Duff’s wife, but it does not appear so as he was born in Edinburgh in 1819.]
Mary Austin was baptized in Morton by Thornhill Parish:
Morton By Thornhill Old Parish Registers: “Mary Austin, daughter of James Austin and Janet Kerr, was baptized 31st March 1805.”
She had siblings baptized in Closeburn Parish, which is nearby.
Closeburn Old Parish Registers – Baptisms: “3rd January 1808 - James Austine and Janet Carr, in Barnmuir, a daughter.” “10th January 1810 - James Austine and Janet Carr, in Markeure, a son - John.” “27th June 1811 - James Austine and Janet Carr, in Margeryhill, a daughter - Janet.” “5th October 1817 - James Austan and Jannet Keir, in Margeryhill, a son - Thomas.”
No marriage was found for James Austin and Janet Kerr/Carr/Keir, their baptisms were not found either. I checked the Closeburn Monument Inscriptions but no family gravestones were found.
James Duff, the Mail Coachman, was baptized in Kelton Parish:
Kelton Old Parish Register: “James Duff, son of James Duff and Mary Wilson, in Castle Douglas, was baptized 12th January 1806.” He also had a brother: “John Duff, son of James Duff and Mary Wilson, in Castle Douglas, was baptized 27th June 1807.”
I also found the family buried in Castle Douglas, [Kelton]. Plot No 123: [a Winged Soul] “Erected by John Wilson, In Memory of James Wilson, who died May 22nd 1798, aged 17 years. Also of Elizabeth Hop, spouse of the said John Wilson, who died February 2nd 1800, aged 56 years. Also of Mary Hannay, his 2nd spouse, who died the 15th of December 1825, aged 76 years.” On the Reverse: “Here Lies Mary Anderson, who died January 1800, aged 80 years. Also his Grandson, John Duff, who died 29th July 1827, aged 20 years. Also his daughter, Mary Wilson, widow of James Duff, who died at Castle Douglas, 30th September 1852, aged 79 years.”
Mary Wilson was the daughter of John Wilson and Elizabeth Hope [not Hop as on the Monument Inscription]. She was baptized in Crossmichael Parish:
Crossmichael Old Parish Registers: “Mary Wilson, daughter of John Wilson and Elizabeth Hope, in Culgruff, was baptized 21st October 1773.”
Mary had an older brother and sister baptized in Kelton Parish:
Kelton Old Parish Registers: “James Wilson, son of John Wilson and Elizabeth Hope, was baptized 4th June 1780.” “Anne Wilson, daughter John Wilson and Elizabeth Hope, in the town of Carlingwalk, was baptized 7th March 1783.” Carlingwalk was the old name for Castle Douglas.
I was unable to find any further information on the Wilson and Hope families.
James Duff, married to Mary Wilson, was baptized in Kirkcudbright. Kirkcudbright Old Parish Registers: “James Duff, son of James Duff and Janet Turner, spouses at Stockerton, was baptized 4th June 1763.”
He had other brothers and sisters also baptized in Kirkcudbright: “Janet Duff, lawful daughter of James Duff and Janet Turner, in Stockertown, was baptized 12th November 1761.” “John Duff, lawful son of James Duff and Janet Turner, in Stockerton, was baptized 18th March 1765.” “Marion Duff, daughter of James Duff and Janet Turner, in Little Stockerton, was baptized 13th February 1767, born 8th February 1767.” “Robert Duff, son of James Duff and Janet Turner, was baptized 23rd January 1769.” “Janet Duff, lawful daughter of James Duff and Janet Turner, at Stockerton, was baptized 8th September 1771.”
James Duff and Janet Turner were married on the 27th November 1760 in Kirkcudbright Parish. The entry from the Proclamation Register is as follows: “Kirkcudbright – 14th November 1760 – In Presence of Baillie Reid, James Duff at Black Stockerton and Janet Turner at Little Stockerton gave in their names for proclamation in order to marriage. Samuel Gordon in Stockerton Cautr [Cautioner] for the man and James Turner for his daughter. Married 27th November 1760.”
No other Old Parish Register entries could be found for this family. However I found that they were buried in Kirkcudbright Churchyard:
Plot No 758: “Here lies the body of Janet McClure, spouse to James Turner in Little Stockerton, who departed this life March 1760 aged 58 years. Also the corps of John, James and Agnes children procreate between them, also here lies the said James Turner, who died 2nd March 1779, aged 82. Their daughter Janet Turner, spouse to James Duff in Little Stockertoun, she died 22nd May 1782, aged 52 years.” East Side: [A Winged Soul] “ Also here lyes the body of Elizabeth Turner, spouse to John Turner in East Bomby, who died 22nd September 1812, aged 72 years. Also the said John Turner, who died 24th November 1816, aged 85 years.”
So Janet Turner was the daughter of James Turner and Janet McClure.

There were two other Gravestones in Kirkcudbright Graveyard connected to the Duff Family:
Plot 759: [Marion Duff, daughter of James Duff and Janet Turner] “ Sacred to the Memory of John Martin, Clock maker, Kirkcudbright, who departed this life October 1801, aged 91 years. Also Margaret McClure, his spouse, who died May 1781. Also their children John, Roger, and Isabella who died in infancy. And also their daughter Elizabeth, who departed this life August 3rd 1828, aged 81 years.” Reverse Side: “In Memory of John Bryce, who died at Clauchan of Tongland, 10th January 1816, aged 46 years. Marion, his daughter, died in infancy 1804. Marion Duff his relict, died at Hightae, Parish of Kelton, 2nd September 1844, aged 73 years. Also their son James, who died at Bengal, East Indies, 16th March 1849, aged 42 years.”
Plot 749: [Robert Duff, son James Duff and Janet Turner] “Erected in Memory of Robert Duff, late farmer in Little Sypland, who died 22nd March 1822, aged 51 years. Margaret Anderson, his spouse, who died at the same place, 13th April 1849, aged 77 years. Anna Duff, their daughter, who died 1st August 1844, aged 44 years. William Duff, their son, who died 16th June 1853, aged 46 years. Also Jessie Nairn, wife of Robert Duff, their son, who died at High Barcaple, 29th March 1873, aged 53 years. Also Jane Duff, spouse of the late James Hornell, Merchant, Kirkcudbright, who died at Little Sypland, 19th August 1875, aged 65 years.

Robert Mims Jemison//Floyd married first Ellen Stovall and had 5 children. Robert Mims (Jemis
on) Floyd was the illegitimate son of Robert Mims Jemison and Ellen Floyd. Papa was just 3 months old when Grandpa Robert Mims Jemison married Mary Cheves Howard. They had a son they named Robert Mims Jemison Jr. Robert Mims (Jemison) Floyd married second Annie Lou Boswell and they are my parents. We lived in Talladega and knew Grandpa Jemison. Used to visit him at the mill and while he and Papa talked we kids played around the docks, sometimes running up to get a hug from Grandpa. His wife Mary Cheves Howard had died . When he died in 1930 we went to his funeral. That may be the reason someone ordered the KKK to come to our home one night and tell us to"get out of town". Whoever ordered it must have told them to not harm us or we might have been abused, The KKK did not yell loud and did not sing or chant. It was a very stealthy mission they were obeying. We moved the next day to Birmingham and after awhile there Papa learned of two of the Jemison,s living there so we moved again to a smaller city about an hour from Birmingham. Our parents never felt really safe from another KKK episode and were constantly alert for signs of resentment against us. We never knew why as Papa was working, we were in school, going to church etc. BUT there was someone there who must have been ashamed of Papa's father, Robert Mims Jemison Sr. I will never forget that night or hearing my Mother praying as she had taken us girls to the back bedroom while Papa just looked out the front window and stayed quiet. Never will I forget my younger sister asking Mama "why they burnin' Jesus' cross?" To think that such an incident could occur in America in the 1930's is incomprehensible....much less that someone thought they wanted to"keep secret a family indiscretion". I do not accept any blame for what my ancestors did that was wrong, neither do I accept the acclaim for the good things they did. But seeing that fiery cross is something no one should ever have to see!!! Afterwards Papa and Mama thought they had who it was figured out. After researching my roots I now know they were right in thinking it was a Jemison female who was the most prominent woman in Talladega at that time. I just hope that whoever it was asked God's forgiveness before they died.' Caus I know Grandpa and Papa are right now dancing an Irish jig up there with all my siblings. I am the last surviving child of Robert Mims (Jemison) Floyd and my Papa deserves to have his heritage told! He never sought revenge of any kind and was the best father anyone could have! He never used the name Jemison but I put that in for reference. He was Robert Mims Floyd and that is on his death certificate. MY PAPA IS A JEMISON and therefore I carry that blood line also.

From: Johnson, Erica Date: 07/18/05 11:31:02 To: 'NAVYBEAR' Subject: RE: CLOSING THOUGHTS ON THE HASTINGS FAMILY
Dear Mr Hastings,
Thank-you for your recent e-mail and the wonderful family tree that you attached, you have done so well to get such a long lineage back to the 15th Century.
Why did the family change their name form Hairstones to Hastings?, Well I notice that this change seems to take place around the late 1700's, when written records are becoming far more common. It is likely that the name was changed by the local Parish Session Clerk, possibly a new man taking over the job around that time decided that the name given to him by the family when the children were baptized sounded like Hastings, in the heavy local accent, and once changed it simply became the accepted spelling. At that time very few people could read or write and the family may not have realized that the Clerk had spelt the name differently from previous entries in the record.
If you want to check out the following website:

It is that of a local antiquarian bookseller and I am sure he will be able to help you find the book you require.
Glad to have been able to help you, best wishes for your future researches.

HARDESTY, FRANK R.
The community was greatly shocked Tuesday morning to learn that Frank R.
Hardesty had died at 11:30 o'clock Monday night. It was known by a few that
he had been sick for a day or two, but no one suspected that he was
dangerously ill. It seems that it is true that in "life we are in death."
The funeral was conducted Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock in St.
Andrew's Episcopal church by the Pastor, Rev. F. M. Weddell, the ritualistic
service alone being used. The body was then taken in charge by Ozark Camp
No. 2121 Modern Woodmen of America. A part of their funeral service was
carried out at the grave.
Frank R. Hardesty, was the elder son of Dr. and Mrs. N. H. Hardesty and was
born and raised in Cuba. He was married and had one child. For a year or
two past he had been clerking in the drug store of J. A. Rost. He was
popular among the people of Cuba and all bemoan his untimely death. He was
a member of the Modern Woodmen of America, and of the Knights of Pythias.
The sincere sympathy of the entire community is extended to the heart broken
family.

Jamison, State Attorney of Crawford County, Missouri; and Edwin F. , after the war Dr. Hardesty resumed his practice and settled in Crawford County, Missouri, in 1869, on a farm about four miles west of Cuba, to which place he removed in 1874.
