    Notes:

    Solomon is not on the 1870 Census with his family. Since he was only supposed to be 16, I believe he died before then.

    • death certificate: 26 Apr 1930; I.R.A. Mills of Henderson
    • Obituary: 29 Apr 1930, Henderson, Rusk, Texas, USA; Henderson Times

    Notes:

    I found a marriage record in Nac for Amanda Mills to H Marsill Horney, 28 Aug 1891, but no more records for Marsill and Amanda (nor Mashall or Marcel). Ira/Arrie's death certificate lists his name as Morris.

    In 1900, Mandy and Dixie Mills are living with Anna and James Pierce, her sister. There is also a John Mills who may be John Hiram, Alvy's son. According to the 1900 census, she was married 8 years (1892), then in 1930, she was widowed.

    I found a marriage record in Nac for Amanda Mills to R C Clifton, 5 Aug 1903, but I find no other entries for R C and Amanda.

    There is a Mandy Honey (age 60) on the 1910 Census in Laneville with a 17 year old daughter named Dixie Honey.

    In 1920, Mandy Mills is living with Arrie and JG Clifton and their two children, listed as mother-in-law. Dixie isn't with them. In 1930, Arie and Jack Clifton are still in Nac with six children.

    The obit has her listed incorrectly as Ira's mom. I found no Ira Mills with Amanda as his mother so I am assuming this is my Ira and his sister OR this is Arrie "Ira" Clifton.

    If Mandy is buried at Crim's Chapel, it is either an unmarked grave or she has a different last name. Her county death record is under Amanda Mills and reported by Ruben Armstrong, Ira's son-in-law, my grandpa. Our Mandy was living with Ira on 11 Apr 1930 for the census. Her death certificate was signed by IRA Mills of Henderson and lists her parents as J M Mills and Martha Aldridge and says she was divorced.

    Did she marry a Mills? There is a Mills family in Panola county at the same time and using the same given names but not connected [yet] to our guys.

    Taking all these bits and pieces, I believe our Mandy married Marsill/Morris Horney/Harney/Haney/Honey/Honea in 1891 and probably divorced [or separated from] him around 1900. She has at least one daughter, Ira/Arrie, possibly two - Dixie. Arrie married the Clifton. My dad told me we are related to some Cliftons through his mom and this could be that link. Are Arrie and Dixie the same person? If they aren't, where was Arrie for the 1900 Census?

    From Diann Wells
    This line is my step-father's line. He had no children, and no siblings; however, he has many cousins. He died in 1998 and was happy that he knew his extended families that I researched for him. I would be happy to share what I have. Dad was John B. Willbanks (J.B. Willbanks, Jr. on his certificate) and his direct line to the Aldridges is as follows:

    parents: John Benton and Florence Alva (Thomas) Willbanks
    g parents: Benjamin Franklin and Sallie Loucretia (Baker) Thomas
    gg parents: David Marshall Alexander and Nancy Jane (Daniel) Baker
    2gg parents: Richard J. and Sarah (Aldridge) Daniel
    3gg parents: Drury and Anna Aldridge.

    Obituary:

    Mrs. N. J. Baker aged 75 years and 6 months died last Friday morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. W.H. Morris, about three miles from Cleburne on the new Alvarado road.
    Mrs. Baker was a native of Texas having been born at Nacogdoches on Aug. 1, 1854. She moved to Hood county with her parents when an infant, and grew to young womanhood there. On March 11, 1869 , at the tender age of 14 years she was united in marriage to D.M. Baker, then a courageous young man of 18 years. To this union were born eight children, four sons, and four daughters all of whom survive except one daughter who died a few years ago. Mrs Bakers husband, the idol of her heart, preceded her in death by one year and four months.
    She moved to Somervell county in 1906 with her husband, and resided on their farm until 1922 when they moved to Terrell to live with a daughter , Mrs. B. F. Thomas, who lived only five months after their arrival. They then moved to Cleburne and made their home at 106 North Allen street, where they resided until the death of her companion. Since that time she has made her home with her son, T. D. Baker. Who resides three miles north of Walnut Springs. Mrs Baker was always kind gentle and patient. On the morning of Feb. 6th she remarked to her son "I must go to Cleburne." The family was surprised and wondered at this statement, as she had never expressed any desire to go anywhere before and she seemed so serious about it on this occasion. Her son made preparations promptly to comply with her wishes. Soon after arriving at her destination she was taken seriously ill with heart trouble and passed away a week later, Fri. morn at 2:50 o'clock she was a devoted Christian and a firm believer in God whom she trusted. She was of the Petecostal faith and passed from this life calling on the name of Jesus.
    She had all of her plans made and was ready for the journey she was to make soon. She spoke of the beauties of Heaven and the rest for the tired hands and weary heart. Mrs. Baker also spoke of her dear companion as she had seen him in a vision fo clean hands and feet, and the garments so clean and pure and the smile of heaven on his face. This vision she had before leaving her home for the trip to Cleburne. In her last hrs she said "he said he would come back for me" the eyes are closed, the hands are folded the dear heart is stilled, the loving voice will be heard no more. But we know her sweet humble spirit will ever be near to guide those she loved so much.
    Survived by a sister, Mrs. Delia Garretson, of Granite, Okla; and seven children, J.W. Baker, Rotan, T D Baker, Walnut Springs; C K Baker, Kimble; Mrs J.A. Dunn, Greenfield, Okla; Mrs W H Morris, Cleburne; Mrs Madell Morris, Walnut Springs, and a number of grandchildren, and great grandchildren, besides a host of friends and neighbors all of whom mourn her death.
    Furnel services were conducted by Rev. E W Copeland, of this place interment was made in the Long Creek Cemetery in Hood county, last Sat. aft at 2 oclock.
    One who loved her.

    Lawrence bought a new car - a Whippet 6, and it runs good. Now he can go see his Shorty. Tooter and Leon (Kelly) were here since Saturday. They borrowed Uncle Walter's (Kelly) car and tried to make a curve going to fast.Tthey wrecked the car, rolled it over, but didn't get hurt.
