not pictured here. Wm. Millard died at the age of ten and was the child just older than Rufus. There was another daughter
Sarah Ann Elizabeth, born before Rilla but she died as a baby. John W. and Henry were certainly alive at this time and John
and wife and family can be seen in another family portrait on this sight, as can Henry and his wife Amanda. Wm Hillery Cumbie,
in this portrait, is one of John and Talitha Harry Cumbie's children. Charles Cumbie was the son of Reuben Cumbie and Sarah
McCall. Sarah was the granddaughter of James McCall who was a Lieutenant Colonel (South Carolina) in the American Revolution.
McCall is listed on an Internet site which denotes those commissioned and non-commissioned officers who served during that period.

In Union Grove----in front of the house we see EUDORA BLAYLOCK CUMBIE being carried
saddleback by two of her five daughters. IVAN CUMBIE GANT and
BSSIE CUMBIE STEWART are the daughters. Mrs. Gant was the wife of Martin Lloyd Gant and Bessie the wife
of Grover Cleaveland Stewart. All three of these wonderful ladies are interred in Liberty Cemetery just outside Greenwood.
Judging from the shadow cast by the photographer, I would be willing to bet it is the eldest daughter Minnie Cumbie Bassett
who was married to J. Carl Bassett and is also buried at Liberty. I would be the great grandson of Eudora through her son
Joseph Walker Cumbie and his wife Laura Drake Cumbie (of Perryville). Their son Eugene Arden Cumbie was my father

Handwritten Information provided on the reverse of the
photo from Hubert Lawerance (the last boy on the right-in second row of boys standing at front
of train.) Circa early 1890's.
"The first run of the train to Lavaca Arkansas. My grandfather donated land on his farm to the railroad for a right-of-way.
He and other farmers thought the railroad would help the area farmers get their produce to market. But automobiles and truck
came into use soon and the railroad trains were not much help to them."
Stamped "Southern Photograph Co., C. G. Morledge, Manager, Fort Smith, Ark."
Original photo provided to Jack James by Tom Reding of Fort Smith.
