THE McDANIEL FIVE (Photo submitted)

How unique is it to see siblings, five of them, all in their 80s and all still living and doing well except for the things that getting older brings to all of us? I would say it is very seldom heard of and when we do hear and see it, we need to pause and celebrate! Above are all five children of Nolan Ernest, sr. (Mac) and Ella Lee McDaniel. Seated, from left: Wendell, 89, (who will be 90 Sept. 20) of Yellowpine, Clement, 88 of Hemphill and Ernest, 85, of Yellowpine; standing: Evelyn (Easley), 80, of San Juan Capistrano, CA, and Zuda (Tinsley), 82, or Hemphill. They were all born in Sabine County and raised in the old community of Mason Town, now known as Six Mile. They were raised when times were hard ans each had to pull their own weight, when walking was something they had to do to get where they wanted to go and not for exercise. Going barefooted was something they did, not for fun, but out of necessity. Getting to school was a chore. During grade school years they walked three miles to attend school in Six Mile and as high school years approached, some stayed with friends in Hemphill and Yellowpine so they could attend school. Even with all the marks set against them, the five grew up to be fine upstanding citizens of the communities they chose as grown men and women to start and raise their families. So much could be said about each of these five people (I am the niece of Wendell, but claim them all as my aunts and uncles) and wish for each, all the blessings that only God can bestow on them in the years he chooses to give them.

Notes:

Middle name shown by family descendants as Walton, his mothers maiden name.

Kay Parker McCary instead lists him as William Watson McDaniel, Jr., a namesake son of his father. She also indicates that he has a military marker at his gravesite, which reads" Co F 11 Texas Inf CSA"

Laura Buckmaster and Barbara Yancey Dore also show his middle name as Watson.

Notes:

Married:
Robert Cecil McDaniel wrote, in his autobiography, that after "his grandparents married, they moved to the Bayou Community, located about four miles north of Fairdale. They lived there until Grandpa's death on December 10, 1899, at the age of fifty-five."

John married Eunice "Una" Carter White on 6 Mar 1883 in Sabine County, Texas. Eunice (daughter of Henry Strickland White, Sr and Ann Vardeman) was born on 7 Jun 1852 in Texas; died on 16 Jul 1925. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

On the 1920 Sabine County census, she was living in the household of her son, John B. Walker in Precinct #1 of Sabine County, household #579/601. She was listed as a 67 year old widow.

Notes:

Married:
John Walker, a 42 year old Widower, lived next door to 28 year old Eunice White, who was living at home with her parents, at the time of the 1880 census.

Charles White also lists them as being the parents of a Emma Walker, dob unknown, who married Bence Ener. He cites Mrs. A.V. White, THEY CAME TO TEXAS. However, I was unable to locate Emma on the 1900 census with her parents. She would have had to have been under age 17 at the time (The Walker's were married in 1883) or already married. However, Bency Ener was still living at home in 1900, an 11 year old son of Mart and Harriett Ener in Precinct #7, #122/122. Additionally, in Sabine County Marriage Records 1900-1910 by Toole, it is shown that EVA Walker married Bencie Ener on 6 March 1910.
