NC Civil War Pension Application of Sarah Elizabeth [Page] Huneycutt

On 1 July 1902, Sarah Elizabeth [Page] Huneycutt, age 68, of  Wadesboro, NC applied for a Widow pension for the service of her husband during the Civil War.

Her husband, James W. Huneycutt, had recently passed away on 19 November 1896. During the War, he had served in Company “C”, 42 NC Infantry.

There is an error on page 1 of this application where it states that James served in the 42 and strike-through was made and South Carolina written in; the 42th was a NC Regiment and James served with this NC Regiment. [https://www.fold3.com/image/271/49881976]



She stated the following:
She married before 1861 [actual marriage date was 20 May 1855]
Her husband died about Nov 1896 [died 19 Nov  1896]
She received a pension in South Carolina in June 1901 - She moved to North Carolina in October 1901- and has since that date and is now a resident of North Carolina.

John Dry was her witness to statements made within her NC Widow’s Application for a Pension.
John Dry was the son of Charles Andrew Dry and his wife Leah Tucker. John Dry and Sarah’s husband, James W. Huneycutt, were cousins.





James W. Huneycutt  and his wife Sarah Elizabeth [Page] Huneycutt are my paternal 2nd Great Grandparents.

Stanly County NC Estate~Marcus ‘Mark’ Huneycutt

After years of research all that is known about the death of my 3rd Great Grandfather is that he died sometime between 1860 and 1870.  No record of his death or a tombstone has been found.

No Last Testament and Will has been found but there was a probate of his estate. 

Mark I. Huneycutt  ¹
Probate Folder

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1942-35569-26321-38?cc=1911121

I’m know this estate was created for the sole purpose to protect the heirs at law in the division of the real estate and personal property of one Mark I. Huneycutt.

The last record we have for Mark Huneycutt is his presence in the 1860 Census for Stanly County.

1860 CENSUS: Stanly County, North Carolina; Roll: M653_914; Image: 18; Family History Library Film: 803914, Page: 9 (stamped); Line 30, Dwelling 113, Family 113; Mark HUNEYCUTT, male, age 60, born in NC; Charity HUNEYCUTT, female, [wife], age 57, born in NC; Martin I. HUNEYCUTT, male, age 24, born in NC; Sallie HUNEYCUTT, female, age 28, born in NC; Bedy L. HUNEYCUTT, female, age 17, born in NC; John FURR, male, [Son-in-Law], age 30, born in NC; Betsey [HUNEYCUTT] FURR, female, age 21, born in NC and Mary E. FURR, female, [grand Daughter] age 9/12, born in NC

His wife Charity Dry is listed (without husband) in the 1870 Stanly County Census. 

1870 CENSUS: Furr, Stanly County, North Carolina; Roll: M593_1160; Image: 127; Family History Library Film: 552659, Page: 58A(stamped); Line 25, Dwelling 4, Family 4; Cath [Charity Dry] HUNEYCUTT, Female, age 70, born in NC; Sarah HUNEYCUTT, Female [Daughter], age 37, born in NC; Beedy L. HUNEYCUTT, Female [Daughter], age 22, born in NC and Tobitha [Tabitha] HUNEYCUTT GrandDaughter], Female, age 15, born in NC.

This seems to indicate that Mark passed away between 1860 and 1870. But, why did the heirs wait until 1902 to settled his estate.

There are 24 images or pages to his estate on Family Search. I think the estate is incomplete. The earliest document is Image 13 and 14; both related to appointing a Guardian for my Grandmother and her two sisters.

The three sisters, Pearl, Etta and Theresa are grandchildren of Mark through his daughter Louvena Huneycutt Deese. It was amazing to see my grandmother named within this probate file.

 

The next document I want to discuss is a documents listing the children of Mark and Charity Dry. That document is image 19.

The Children of Mark and Charity are:
i. John Wiley Huneycutt, born 16 Jan 1823, Montgomery County, North Carolina; married Elizabeth Love.
ii. Tobias A. Huneycutt, born abt 1824, Montgomery County, North Carolina; married Elizabeth Mariam Huneycutt.
iii. David M. Huneycutt, born abt 1828, Montgomery County, North Carolina; married Edith Underwood.
iv. William Riley Huneycutt, born Mar 1830, Montgomery County, North Carolina; married Lydia Brooks.
v. James Wiley Huneycutt, born 26 Apr 1833, Cabarrus County, North Carolina; married Sarah Elizabeth Page.
vi. Martin Irenus Huneycutt, born 14 Dec 1835, Montgomery County, North Carolina; married Unicey [LNU], 1880; married Elmire Hudson.
vii. Sarah "Sallie" Huneycutt, born 29 Nov 1836, Montgomery County, North Carolina; married Allen McDaniel Page.
viii. Elizabeth "Betsy" Huneycutt, born abt Jan 1842, Montgomery County, North Carolina; married John Furr.
ix. Beada Huneycutt, born abt 1842, Stanly County, North Carolina; married Nathan T. Starnes; married Darling Ephriam Huneycutt.

Image 19
{Click on image to make larger)

The first things I want you to notice is that every child except Martin I. Huneycutt (#1) is listed as deceased (dead)

Key for Image 19 and listed children:

1. M. I. Huneycutt = Child #6 – Martin Irenus Huneycutt
2. Jim Huneycutt = Child #5 – James W. Huneycutt (My Direct Line)
3. M. M. Huneycutt = Child #4 – William Riley Huneycutt
4. Wiley Huneycutt = Child #1 – John Wiley Huneycutt
5. David Huneycutt = Child#3 – David M. Huneycutt
6. Tobe Huneycutt = Child#2 - Tobias A. Huneycutt
7. Bette Furr = Child#8 – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Huneycutt
8. Sallie Page = Child#7 – Sarah ‘Sallie’ Huneycutt
9. Beadie Huneycutt = Child#9 – Beadie Huneycutt

In the listing above #2, Jim Huneycutt is my 2nd great grandfather and also the grandfather of the three sisters, Pearl, Etta and Theresa Deese mentioned at the beginning of this blog post.

Mark Huneycutt is my 3rd Great Grand Father.

It’s Family Time~John Allen Huneycutt

John Allen Huneycutt was born on 19 Jan 1864 in Stanly County, North Carolina. He was the only son of James W. Huneycutt and Sarah Elizabeth Page Huneycutt. James Allen Huneycutt had 4 siblings. Between 1870 and 1880, James Allen parents moved their family of 5 children from Stanly County, North Carolina to Chesterfield County, South Carolina, a distance of about 46 miles south of their present home. 

Both James Allen and his Father James W. were farmers. The 1900 census shows that James Allen married a young lady by the name of Lizzie, which is most likely Elizabeth, in 1892. 
 
1910 CENSUS: Cole Hill, Chesterfield County, South Carolina; Roll:  T624_1455; Enumeration District: 0034; FHL microfilm: 1375468;  Page: 2A/85(stamped);  Line 04, Dwelling 24, Family 24; Allen HUNNEYCUTT, male, age 44, born in NC; parents born in NC; Lizzie HUNNEYCUTT, wife, age 38, born in NC; parents born in NC; married 18 years, 1 child, not living. Does not own his farm, rents.
 
Note: After many years of research I have not found Lizzie's maiden name. There doesn’t seem to be a Death Certificate for her; but, her tombstone shows that she died 18 December 1944. 
 
James Allen and Lizzie had two children; one died young, a daughter Azalee, age 10, is listed in the 1920 census. But, in 1930, this daughter is shown as adopted.

Treasure Chest Thursday~Marriage License Samuel Atkinson and Lecty Huneycutt

Lecty Huneyctt is the baby daughter of my 2nd Great Grandparents, James W. Huneycutt and Sarah Elizabeth “Salle” Page Huneycutt. Lecty is my Great Grand Aunt.

In  the 1910 Census for Stanly County, NC, she is married to Samuel Atkinson and has two children in their household. In the Census it’s reported that they had been married for 9 years and had 3 children, 2 living. So for many years my database fact for Lecty and Samuel marriage has been, “Married abt 1901, Stanly County, North Carolina.” 

The search for their marriage license has been ongoing for years and this past week I was successful in finding their Marriage License in Anson County, North Carolina. 



Samuel Atkinson and Lecty Huneycutt were married on 8 May 1902  by Justice of the Peace D. A. McGregor at Wadesboro, Anson County, North Carolina.

Witnesses were: John H. Eddins and Dan Sanders. Zack Deese applied for license for the couple.  Zack Deese is the brother of John Calvin and Henry Harrison that married Lecty sisters Louvena and Nellie Isabelle Huneycutt.
