Lucy (Bradshaw) Killian -- Where is her grave?

JuliaLuke21 — 10 May 2007 6:44:04 GMT

A little help please!

Lucy Ann Bradshaw, b. May 1876 in Arkansas, father is James Henry Bradshaw, and mother is Charlotte Volumia (Jarrett) Bradshaw.

Lucy Ann Bradshaw married Isaac S. "Ike" Killian about 1897 in Indian Territory... Lucy & Isaac Killian had six children/five survived to adulthood. The children were: Mary Eleanor "Nellie", Eula Mae, Henry Lawson, Jesse Ray, Sarah Belle "Sadie", and Mary Etta "Fay" (died at 6 mos. of age).

Lucy & Isaac Killian left Greer County, Oklahoma (where the Bradshaw Families resided) to the Oklahoma Panhandle where they had filed on land in 1905 just after Christmas.
Isaac Killian and his brother-in-law, Bun Bradshaw left to get lumber to build the family's home. Isaac took ill with pneumonia and died on or about February 8, 1906.
Bun Bradshaw and Lucy Killian (pregnant with the 6th child) took the children and started back to Mangum, Greer County, Oklahoma by train.
The train stopped in Groom, Carson County, Texas to get water. The conductor realizes Lucy Killian and one of the children are sick. The family is taken off the train. There is no hospital, so the family is taken to the hotel where the 6th child is born. The female child is named after the woman who ran the hotel, Mary Etta "Fay".
Lucy Killian was deathly ill, her brother Bun takes the five children by train and is met in Erick, Oklahoma by another brother, Will Bradshaw. Will Bradshaw boards the train to return to Groom to be with his sister Lucy.
The Killian children are taken by their maternal grandparents in a surry drawn by horses to Mangum, Oklahoma.
Three to four days later, Lucy Killian dies in Groom, Texas. Her brother Will Bradshaw brings the infant child to the maternal grandparents...

Where is Lucy Killian buried? Have read through Carson County, Texas cemetery records, to no avail... February 1906 -- was there a newspaper in Groom?

Who was the local doctor that attended Lucy? The child that was sick on the train was Eula Mae (my maternal grandmother). That same doctor mixed a powdered medicine with water and gave it by spoon to Eula Mae...

Am desperate to locate Lucy (Bradshaw) Killian's grave! Icing on the cake would be a news article, obit, doctor's record of her death.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

"Water Station" Skellytown - early 1940's

Carlene Murray — 23 Apr 2003 8:48:13 GMT

When I was very small my father, mother and I lived "way out in the country" near Skellytown. My baby sister was born there in 1939, but lived only a few hours. My maiden name was Williams. We had relatives there with the surnames of Dorman and Williams.

My parents told me that Daddy operated the "water station". This was in the early 1940's and I know that we lived near an almost dried up creek. I do remember while living there we had the worst snow storm that I have ever seen....all we could see of our car was the very top of the roof when it was over!

My question is this: Does anyone know exactly what the "water station" was and exactly where it was located? I was too young then to remember that now.

Thomas Carson

mackieandcarol — 27 Feb 2002 12:44:56 GMT

Need help in locating any family of Chester Carson in the Omaha, Texas locale. My greatgrandfather, Thomas Carson married Josephine Rooks in Dekalb County Alabama in 1881 and moved four sons and a daughter to Texas from this location or part of the family could have been born in Texas in the Omaha area. The daughter was a red head that died at 7 years of age. Would like to know the cementary where they might be buried. I understand from family members Chester Carson remained in the area when Josephine returned to Dekalb Couty with the boys. Somewhere Chester remained in Omaha or returned to Omaha from Alabama. The other three boys, James, Earnest and my grandfather, Marvin Carson remained in Dekalb County Alabama in the Section, Ala. area of Sand Mountain. Any info on Thomas Carson would be appreciated. His parents would be a great start. Thanks.
