Ben Garlington was killed by Mack Ingle (1878-1959). Mack Ingle's son, Floyd Marvine "Mose" Ingle was married to Ben's daughter, Frances Pearl. An article about the Ingle Family of Bronson can be found in The Sabine County Reporter, in a column titled "Farm Road 1...From one end the other" March 7, 2018, pages 6 and 7. It noted that Mack "served a couple of years in prison for murdering Ben Garlington, but always said he didn't remember killing him. Apparently, several bottles were emptied before Ben Garlington's death, and when Mack Ingle sobered up, he found the body."

Notes for JAMES ANDERSON CLARK

By: Larry Wayne Crocker, Great Grandson

When I was little my great grandfathers house outside of Pineland, Sabine County, Texas did not have running water. There was a dug well outside the back door (off of the kitchen), we used a bucket and rope to get the water out. The well casing was made stones. The outhouse was down by the pond and my great grandfather used old newspapers and magazines as tolit paper, although my mother always brought some from home whenever we went up. The heat during the winter came from a kerosene burning heater in the living room. The front of the house and front porch sat on the ground and the back of the house was about three feet from the ground. His son, Bertis Lee Clark lived just down the highway from him, you could see Uncle Lee's house from my grandfathers yard. I remember that he had sweet gum trees that we would pull the sap off of and chew it like gum. The first thing that he wanted done when we would visit would be for my mother to bake him a peach cobbler. On the front porch was a bucket of water and a dipper along with his straight razer and an old mirror for shaving. I still have the mirror and straight razer in my possession. My great grandfather bought this house and about 11 acres in the fall of 1945 at the age of 62, paying $600.00. Before moving in my great grandfather had the house wired for electricity, this being a first for him. However, there was not enough money for indoor plumbing and would not be until I was in high school in the mid 1960's. The old house was left to my great aunt Alif, great grandpa's youngest daughter and she still owns it today.

In 1936 my great grandfather was a sharecropper and lived in a small house about a half mile north of Yellow Bayou on what is now Texas Farm Road 1414. This place was about 4 miles outside of Burkeville. This is the house that my Cousins Marvin Dean Simmons and Betty Jean Simmons were born. This is where they all lived with my great aunt Alif along with my Aunt Edna Earl Crocker and my father Johnie Crocker, Jr. until the fall of 1940 when the man that owned the property sold it. It was sold to a great uncle of Marvin & Betty's without my great grandfathers knowledge. This forced my great grandfather and his extended family to move about 5 miles away and move by wagon as they had no car or truck. The new place was owned by a man by the name of Ramsey. Both the Ramsey house as well as the old one had no electricity or running water, much less a indoor bath room. At one time during World War II, my grandmother Sophronia along with my aunts, Patsy, Geraldine and Maxine moved into the house with everyone else while my step grandfather Raymond Woods worked in Beaumont in the shipyard. He would ride the bus from Beaumont on Fridays and then return to Beaumont on the bus for work on Monday, a little over a 100 mile trip.

Bertis married Juanita V. Spurlock about 1932. Juanita was born on 10 Jun 1914 in Browndell, Jasper County, Texas; died on 24 Jan 2009 in Houston, Harris County, Texas; was buried on 29 Jan 2009 in Memorial Park Cemetery, Jasper, Jasper County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Larry Crocker shows that she married (1) Elbert Dean SIMMONS, and they were the parents of Marvin Dean (b. 4 Aug 1936 in Newton County) and Betty Jean SIMMONS (b. 14 Sep 1939); (2) Joseph Johnson POLLARD, Jr., and they were the parents of Carolyn Ann POLLARD (born 4 Dec 1947 in Pineland, Sabine County, Texas); and (3) John William COTTEN.

Mary "Alif" Cotten, by some, fondly remembered as "Puddin", went to be with Jesus on Sunday, November 15, 2015 at the age of one hundred, six months, and one day. She was born on May 14, 1915, in Sabine County to Frances Edward "Edna" Ener and James Anderson Clark.

Mom learned to sew at a very young age and this benefited her greatly throughout her life. She sewed for family, friends, and was a seamstress at a cleaners for part of her working career. Her nieces, Edna Earl and Francis , who grew up with her, shared that she not only made her own clothes but also made theirs as well. I as her youngest daughter always had pretty clothes, bed spreads and curtains, a beautiful wedding gown, and finally, children who always looked adorable in their clothes Grandma made them. This could have been the beginning of always doing for others. While attending and completing high school in Pineland, she enjoyed playing on the basketball team.

Mother lived in Beaumont for most of her adult years and held several jobs as she provided for her three children with support from the family who were always there for each other with love. While working at Montgomery Wards as a receiving clerk, she met and later married John William Cotten in 1954. They were married for thirty-two years before he passed on September 18, 1986. After his death, mother moved to Lumberton just down the street from me, her youngest daughter, where my family enjoyed many happy times and much love and support in sorrowful and difficult times. The legacy that began many years before with Grandma and Grandpa Clark, of family always helping one another, continued on. In her mid-eighties, she moved back to Beaumont living in two retirement homes and finally settling at Serenity Assisted Living where she resided till she went home peacefully.

In honor of my mother, I would like to share her testimony. Around sixty years ago, mother heard a sermon at Central Baptist regarding forgiveness. Even though she was Christian from a very young age, she often felt unworthy to serve in a leadership role in the Christian Community, however this sermon opened her eyes to the Lord's unconditional love and from that day forward, mother was able to forgive herself as well. She then sang in the church choir, became active in the WMU where she served as President for many years, and taught Sunday school classes well into her mid 80's. Upon moving into the various retirement homes and being no longer able to attend her home church services, she read her Bible daily and prayed for family and friends. For those of you who are here today, I truly believe you were in those fervent prayers. In lieu of a commemorative video, my sister and I beseech each of you to picture, remember and reflect on each special memory dear to your hearts. Part of those memories pictured are of mother's love for times spent at Grandpa Clark's, family reunions, holiday gatherings, and especially the many years our brother Marvin and his family from Tennessee spent Christmas's in our home filling it with memories that will always remain in our hearts.

Some of the happiest memories will be of the travels she made throughout the states and Europe with family and friends. Many of us who were close to Mom knew her love and passion for sitting around a table playing games such as Mexican Train, Chicken Foot, Go Fish, with the younger group, Wahoo, and most of all Skip-Bo, which led to her being affectionately known as the "Skip-Bo Queen".

May we honor a long life of one hundred years by carrying on the legacy she made for us which is to live out a strong faith in our Heavenly Father and always praying fervently for one another.

A George Truett Clark and Barbara Jean Smith are shown on the Texas Birth Index as being the parents of Jennifer Leigh Clark (b. 1963, Nacogdoches) and George Taylor Clark (b. 1970, Jefferson County).
