02/10/33 HALBERT JAMES WEBSTER 3 1862 2 9 1933 HUGHES Birth: Mar., 1862 Tennessee, USA Death: Feb. 2, 1933 St. Francis County Arkansas, USA Jim Halbert was born to William Halbert and Mary E. Ewing Halbert in March of 1862 in Tennessee. I think he was born in Marshall County, but I have no proof. Jim married Lillian Katherine Harden, his second cousin, on Christmas Eve of 1889 in Lewisburg, Marshall County, TN. This union produced a daughter, Tommye Lenice (1892-1977) Mary Sue (1894-?), and William Paul(1898-1977). They left Tennessee in a covered wagon in about 1893 on a journey to Oklahoma, where other brothers and sisters had gone. They were stranded in Eastern Arkansas due to bad cold weather and sick children. This is where Mary Sue died. They settled in Caldwell, Arkansas and Jim set up a blacksmith shop and grist mill to support his family. His wife, Lillian Katherine Halbert is buried in Forrest Park Cemetery, Created by: Susie G. Stephens
