By
Edris Abernethy Starkey:
Sarah Ann Talbot was born in Alabama July 30, 1843, the first child of Green B. (5) and Mary Brawner Talbot. October 17, 1867, she married John Ware Abernethy, born in Pontotoc County, Mississippi, son of Sterling Gibb and Elizabeth Ware Abernethy. They lived on a farm a quarter of a mile south of the farm of Green B. Talbot, four miles south of Thornton, Arkansas. He was a good farmer and she was a good manager and businesswoman and they did well. When she realized that she was fatally ill, she called each son to her bedside and talked to him. My father and Uncle Jim were too young to remember this but the older boys have told them about it.
After Sarah Ann?s death, the grandparents kept the three younger boys, John, Arthur, and Jim, along with Dot Wood, whose mother, Elizabeth, had died the year before. Aunt Molly was only eighteen years old but she helped with the little folks too. Dad and Uncle Jim never forgot the love and kindness with which they were cared for. When Uncle Jim was in his teens he lived with Aunt Molly for three years after she and Jim Youngblood were married.
In 1884, John Abernethy came out to Texas trying to get a new start in a new land. While he was gone Uncle Larkin stayed with the older boys and they "batched" together. In 1886, John Abernethy sent for his eight boys. Uncle Larkin took them to Texarkana and their father met them there. Dad says he can remember his grandfather, Green B. Talbot, pacing the platform while they were waiting for the train, finally saying, "Larkin, I don?t believe I can let the boys go." But he did. Their father took them to his sister?s, Sally Ainsworth, close to Bonita, Texas. Later they lived in Montague County, Texas and still later, Oklahoma. It is just as well that they did not know the adventure and hardships in store for them, but that is another story.
