FORMER RESIDENTS OF REAGAN TEXAS

The town of Reagan that existed up until the early 50's for the most part no longer exists. Most of the older inhabitants (who formed the bulk of the town) now rest in peace in the local cemetery. Most of the younger generation grew up and moved away with a few notable exceptions such as Carl Wayne Evans, Ben Morris, Dan Storemski, Ben Morris and a few others.

Most of the landmark buildings of the era about have been torn down, and for many of these, very little physical evidence remains of what once was a thriving little town in central Texas.

The old school campus was torn down and the bricks used to build a modern home. The town proper with its majestic sidewalks, banks, grocery stores, drug stores, variety stores, etc. were torn town a half century ago and the brick sold to brick vendors. Only vacant lots and memories stand in silent testimony to that thriving little town of yesteryear. Some of us are fortunate enough to hold deeds to these lots and entertain dreams of one day rebuilding Reagan to it's earlier glory!

This web page honors those earlier residents of Reagan by attempting to identify all former Reagan residents, provide brief biographical sketches, photos and other interesting stuff about the folks that once lived in Reagan. Over time, photos of scenes from early-day Reagan will also be posted to the Reagan web page.
Once word of this site gets out, I anticipate we'll get lots of contributions to keep the site growing!

In the 1950's, I was fortunate to have a Grit newspaper route in Reagan and as such got acquainted with just about every resident in Reagan at that time. The majority of the residents were elderly and had lived their entire lives in Reagan.

The following people either lived within the town of Reagan or within a few miles of Reagan and had children in the Reagan schools. These residents are mostly taken from memory, and also from Internet research, so inaccuracies are bound to crop in. Also, the spelling of some of the names may be different from actual names. If we've misspelled a name, I apologize in advance. If you have more information about any resident (photos, etc.), please send me an email.

Thanks...

Received the following email from Jared Ramey:

I did a search on google.com for reagen texas and it gave me your website. I was shocked to see that such a small town had an actual website. Anyways, my great grandparents used to live in reagen and my fathers uncle (carl wayne evans) still lives up there and has built on some land in reagen for his business (Texas pneumatic). Ironically enough the family will be having thanksgiving on the Texas Pneumatic Campus. I hope this site is still maintained. It was very interesting reading about it's history.

Email from Lisa Luther, May 2002

"I ran across your website for Regan, Texas where my grandmother was born and went to school. In her 60's and 70's she would still do a cheer or two for me, and I would ask her what a bearkat was; now I know. Her father was Samuel Hetherington. He was born in 1875 in Monroe Co, Alabama. After his first wife Rosa died, he married my great grandmother, Mamie Mae (Carter) and they had two girls (Margaret and Mary). My great grandmother Mamie lived to be well into her 90's and died in Yoakum, Tx around 1980. I was very surprised to see the photo of Sam & Mamie (which I have). I didn't know the names of the other children, but do remember meeting Effie, and remember my mother talking about going to visit uncle Frank.

For Charles Broughton and Mary Snell, I show Mary's death as April 15, 1895, but I don't have a date for Charles. My grandmother gave me a book of her family tree which includes a biography of Charles Broughton. I will be looking for it and writing my Aunt Mary (Hetherington) Chandler for any information. She lives in Humble, Texas.
I enjoyed your website.
Thanks,Lisa Luther in Virginia

Travis Monroe Hetherington was born in Reagan, Texas, on February 20, 1908 to George and Fannie (Herridge) Hetherington. He graduated from Reagan High School in 1926 and entered Tyler Business College and later Texas A&M.

Travis Monroe Hetherington (Feb. 20, 1908 -Oct. 22, 2002)

In 1929, he received a congressional appointment to the U.S. Military Academy. He graduated in 1933, 66th in a class of 347.

Second Lieutenant Hetherington's initial assignment was that of student officer at Randolph Field, Texas. In 1934, he received his pilot's wings at Kelly Field, and today is rated a command pilot, current in both the B-47 Stratojet and the KC-97.

Lieutenant Hetherington's first assignment after Kelly Field was with the 72nd Bombardment Squadron on Ford Island, located in Pearl Harbor. In 1936, he was ordered to Chanute Field, Ill., where he attended the Communications Officers' Course. He was retained there as an instructor. From 1939 to 1945, he was the director of various Radio and Radar Schools, two of these he organized and activated. They were the largest technical schools in the Air Training Command. During this period, he was progressively promoted from first lieutenant to colonel. Such activities earned Colonel Hetherington the Army Commendation Ribbon, and later in 1945 the Legion of Merit.

In 1945, Colonel Hetherington was ordered to the Pacific Theater where he was appointed deputy chief of staff and later A-3 of the Fifth Bomber Command. In 1946, he became assistant chief of staff for operations, Fifth Air Force. For his particularly superior ability and diligent work in the Fifth Bomber Command, he was awarded the Second Army Commendation Ribbon. From July 1947 to July 1948, he commanded the 315th Composite Wing in Fifth Air Force, Japan.

Upon returning to the U.S. from Japan in August 1948, Colonel Hetherington entered the Air War College from which he graduated in 1949. His next assignment was as commander of the U.S. Air Force Security Service at Brooks Field, Texas. In January 1951, he moved to Washington, D.C., where he became deputy director of the National Security Agency. For the next two and one-half years, while working as deputy director of NSA, Colonel Hetherington attended The George Washington University two nights each week. He received his master's degree in advanced management from that institution in November 1953.

Following graduation from the National War College in 1954, Colonel Hetherington was appointed director of operations of the 806th Air Division Lake Charles Air Force Base, La. During this assignment he attended the B-47 Transition School at McConnell Air Force Base. When the 379th Bombardment Wing (Medium) was activated at Homestead Air Force Base, Fla., he was designated its commander. On May 31, 1957, he assumed command of the 823rd Air Division at Homestead, being promoted to brigadier general in July 1957.

In June 1957, he was awarded an oak leaf cluster to the Commendation Ribbon. The citation which accompanied this award read in part: "As commander, 379th Bombardment Wing, Colonel Hetherington continually exhibited the highest qualities of leadership and resourcefulness in developing his organization within the time limitations from a small cadre to a highly effective and efficient combat unit ... (he) surmounted many obstacles prevalent in building a formidable bombardment wing, applying mature judgment and enthusiasm to enable his unit to assume its position as an integral part of the command mission."

General Hetherington was awarded the first oak leaf cluster to the Legion of Merit in October 1958 for distinguishing himself by meritorious conduct of outstanding service during the period June 1, 1957 to Aug. 15, 1958 as commander, 823rd Air Division, Strategic Air Command. The citation stated: "The professional and aggressive leadership displayed by General Hetherington had a profound effect upon the buildup of Homestead Air Force Base, and was a significant factor in making his command an integral element in the striking force of the Strategic Air Command."

Following his assignment with the 823rd Air Division, General Hetherington was a student at the Military Assistance Institute, Arlington, Va. Later, in November 1958, he became chief, Air Force Section, Military Assistance Advisory Group, Japan.

In July 1959, the general assumed command of the 39th Air Division, Japan. Two years later, he became deputy chief of staff, plans and operations, Headquarters, Pacific Air Forces at Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii. He retired from the United States Air Force August 31, 1963. Upon his retirement, Gen. Hetherington embarked on his second illustrious career. He formed T. Hetherington & Daughters, Inc., a home-building company with his wife and two daughters. During the twenty-five years of business, the company built 500 homes in San Antonio and Leon Valley.

Brigadier General Travis Monroe Hetherington, USAF (Ret.) passed away on October 22, 2002 after a lengthy illness at Air Force Village II.

Received the following email recently from Bill Jones of Milan, Tennessee.

"Read your article on Mary L. Jones who married Abner Peacock. Although my grandfather lived in Graves County, Ky. he corresponded with Mary L. Peacock's father Charlie D. Jones who was his first cousin. I was to young to know what part of Texas all of his cousins lived in but have lately learned they lived in the Falls County in Reagan. At least 5 Jones siblings lived in the Reagan-High Banks-Bremond area. They were Eliza Jones Moore whose husband and sons owned a drug store in Reagan. William H. Jones who drowned about 1918-1919 while he, a doctor and another man were crossing a swollen creek in a buggy between Reagan and Marlin when the bridge collapsed. The doctor and William H. Jones drowned but the unknown passenger was saved. Nora Jones Flowers (Buried in Bremond). Robert Bruce Jones a farmer near Reagan and Charlie D. Jones mentioned above. All were born in Scott County, Mississippi and came to Reagan after 1878 to be near their maternal grand father Henry Bennett (Buried in Hog Island). A few minutes ago I was reading your page on High Banks and found the same entry on Charlie D. Jones that appeared in the Reagan Page. I also noted that Charlie D. Jones was appointed Post Master of High Banks on March 8, l916. Naturally all of this is most interesting to me. I have never learned where Charlie D. Jones and wife are buried. I was wondering if there is a documented cemetery near High Banks where they might be interred? It certainly would be great to learn who submitted this Reagan and High Banks information. (They are identical articles). It states that Mary L. and Abner Peacock moved to Marlin after a flood wiped them out in High Banks and they were later divorced and she married Sam H. Oakes in Marlin. I find Sam H. Oakes buried in Calvary cemetery but she doesn't appear to be buried beside him. She and Sam Oakes had a son named Charles Robert born in 1944. Any help you could give me in contacting the submitter of this excellent entry in your web pages would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely,

Richard and Sara Jones-Lived in Carolina County, Virginia; moved to Texas in 1860.
Son: William P. Jones

Interview with William P. Jones of Reagan, Texas:
"My parents were Richard and Sarah Jones, and I was born in Carolina County, Virginia, in 1852. I came with my parents to Texas in the year 1860. We came by boat down the Mississippi river, then through the Gulf of Mexico and landed at Galveston, Texas, and came from there up the Bayou to Houston and from Houston we came overland in ox-wagons to our first home, which was at Navasota, Texas. My father bought land from some squatters and in time, the rightful heirs came and claimed it, so we lost the land.

"While we were living in Navasota, the Civil War was declared and four of my brothers served under the flag of the Confederacy. Walter was in Hood's Brigade and was killed in action; another, Napoleon, was in the same Brigade but he lived to return home. Stanfield fought in Speight's Brigade and he, too, returned home after the war. He fought in Louisiana. Richard Hampton was in Tom Green's Brigade and he, too, came back. He was also in some of the battles.

"At the close of the war, the yellow fever broke out in Texas and was getting close to where we lived near Navasota, so, when the Houston and Texas Central Railroad reached Bryan, we moved to Falls County. I rode the first engine into Bryan, Texas. We settled on Hog Island, a little settlement a few miles above the present town of Reagan, nine miles south of Marlin, Texas. At this time the town of Reagan had not been laid off, but when the railroad came, Bill Reagan, brother of the late Judge John H. Reagan, owned a lot of land near by and he donated {Begin page no. 2}the town site, hence the name of Reagan, in honor of the man who gave the land for the town-site.

"When father became settled at Hog Island he organized a Baptist Sunday School. However other denominations worshipped with us until their church was built. Until we built a church, we held services in our home. Two of our first ministers were Rev. Harper and Tubb. Rev. Harper was the first postmaster and Brother Tubb had a store and later the post office was located in his store. The present postmaster, Mr. Higgins, has served as postmaster at Reagan for fifty-two years.

"As the railroad was being built through the community, I spent my time playing around and watching the men at work, and during their lunch hour I remember how the men had their fun with me. After the railroad was built on to Marlin and Waco, we moved to Reagan and lived there while I was a boy in school. The first stores at this time were owned by Sam and Andrew Peyton, Captain Johnson and Dr. McDowell had a drug store. Other families were those of Harper, Robbins, Fountain, [Boyles?], McCoy, Cotton, Rankin, Hayes, Hagen, Rogers, Guffy, Davidson, and J. E. Davis. At the foot of Blue Ridge were the families of Dick Beal, Owen, Hunnicutt, Harlan, Johnson and Adams. This was only about six or eight miles from Reagan and they came to attend church after the Reagan churches were built.

"At the close of the war there was constant fear of the negroes "rising up" against the whites, but in our community they settled peacefully to work, most of them stayed on with their former masters. They worked the land on the "shares" (part of the crop). Until the railroad {Begin page no. 3}came through, we travelled by stage coach. There is an old stage stand on the [Kosse?]-Reagan road, eight miles from Reagan, and it stands today just as in the days when the stage travel was at its best. But it is now used for a barn for stock in a pasture. As one looks back a vision of the hurry of the stage on its way as the horses dash madly up to the stand and the wait is only long enough for the horses to be changed. Instead of changing cars for "all points north and south, to Houston or Waco, Fort Worth and Dallas" the driver shouts as the ringing of the bells on the bridles of the horses, warn the passengers they are nearing a stop, "Change - Stage Coaches". And the passengers crawl out of the old coach and feel to see if their hats or perhaps their heads are still on. For you know that those coaches did not even have any springs to make riding easy, but were held by huge leather straps instead of the later-day springs.

"Our freight was brought by wagon train from Houston and [Milliken?], the terminal of the Houston and Texas Central railroad when we moved to Falls County. Gil Ward ran a freight line and Mr. Mance Cabiness handled race horses and sold not only cattle but fine horses to men who followed the race track. A thousand dollars was not uncommon for a fine race horse to bring when it was sold.

"In September 1877, I married Miss Willie Riley, a daughter of Captain Riley of Alabama. To us were born thirteen children. All lived to be grown. There are two boys: Howard and Austin, who live in Reagan; another, Walter Lee, lives in Beaumont; Willard lives in Goose Creek; Clyde, Otis, Chester, Earle and Byrd live in Port Arthur. Two daughters {Begin page no. 4}live in Dallas. Orville Groner, liver in Dallas and is financial secretary of the Baptist Convention. Mrs. Maud Dilworth, lives in Longview, and Dexter in Waco, Tom, deceased.

"After I reached manhood I lived for a few years in Marlin and did contracting work. I helped to build some of the first business houses and hotels in Marlin. The wrecking of the Arlington Hotel recently, brings back to memory the days when the first hotel was called a tavern. This was during the days of the stage coach and the "tavern" was owned and operated by H. B. Coleman, who was known to all who frequented the place as "Uncle Henry". T.J. Read bought it from Mr. Coleman and owned the lot which was bought by the Marlin Natatorium Company in 1895.

"The tavern was the center of social life in Marlin and the better class of visitors, travelling men and politicians stopped here. It became the favorite gathering place, especially of the politicians. Here they gathered to select their candidates and to hold their party meetings. But it was not until 1894 that the first indication of the curative power of the Marlin Hot Wells became a thing to consider, when a visitor was cured of a blood infection after bathing in the hot water.

"In the spring of 1895, the first effort was made to commercialize the hot wells and the Marlin Natatorium Company was formed of local residents and bought the lot where the old [?] tavern stood from Mr. Foster. The tavern was torn down and the company created a hotel and bath house. The name of the firm was changed to the Marlin Sanitarium Company. A swimming pool was first built, but later the bath tubs were installed. In January 1899, fire destroyed the bath house and hotel. After this {Begin page no. 5}happened, the company sold the property to Marx Levy, who immediately began the building of the New Arlington Hotel, which was to serve the town for many years. The cost of the hotel and furnishings were in excess of 200,000. An artist was secured at an expense of several thousand dollars to decorate the interior of the building and these decorations were recognized as some of the most beautiful in the southwest for many years.

"The hotel when first erected contained its own heating system, laundry, power plant, barber shop, bar, and all conveniences of a modern and up-to-date hotel of this period. L. Z. Harrison, a son-in-law of Mr. Levy, was made manager of the New Arlington, and C. O. Chetham was the manager of the old hotel. As the old Read tavern in days gone by was the center of the social and political life, so the New Arlington became the center of this same life again.

"It was about this time that the major league baseball teams began to send their teams to Marlin for their training. The White Sox first came in 1900. Then the Philadelphia Phillies, Cincinnatti Reds, St. Louis Browns and a number of other leagues trained here for a number of years. All of these teams made the New Arlington their headquarters, adding many illustrious names of the baseball world to the hotel register.

"But it was for the New York Giants to bring fame to Marlin as the training site for baseball teams. They prepared their own training field that was known as "Giant's Park", and is remembered by old baseball fans. They too, made their headquarters at the old Arlington and it was there that Bob Ripley, creator of the "Believe It Or Not" cartoon spent a time {Begin page no. 6}with the Giants. He sustained a broken arm while working with the Giants and gave up baseball after this, devoting his time to his present work of cartooning. While the major teams were training here, famous sport writers including Sam Crane, Boseman [olger?], Damon Runyan and Grantland Rice accompanied the teams to Marlin.

"Famous politicians, statesmen, governors and others who visited in Marlin stopped at the Arlington. One of them was [?]. Butler who rose from a blacksmith to one of the most famous ward bosses of St. Louis. Among the famous lecturers who stopped at the Arlington were Henry Watterson and Ex-Governor Bob Taylor of Tennessee who were in Marlin as lecturers on a [lyceum?] course.

"Just as the old tavern served its time, so the Old and New Arlington Hotels served theirs. After retirement of Mr. Levy, the hotel changed hands several times and in 1935, it ceased to operate as a hotel and was turned into an apartment house. A number of more modern hotels had been built in the intervening years. In 1937, the property was sold to the Falls Hotel Company at a low price, and a few months later the building was deeded to the Marlin Independent School District, with the understanding that the school would see the material salvaged from the huge structures for the purpose of creating an auditorium-gymnasium for the school. The sole consideration was that the school district was to secure a project for wrecking the building and erecting the auditorium-gymnasium and fill the basement of the hotel site and cover the entire site of the building with eighteen inches of soil. This consideration has been carried out and the lot is ready once more for another building.

"Another interesting incident worthy of note is the wrecking of the Falls County Court House, preparatory to building a new $218,000 County Court House. Of especial interest to me is the removing of the old Falls County clock, which hung in the [cupale?] of the building. It was silenced after fifty-one years of service. It had gone thro' all kinds of weather, but had always tolled the dinner and quitting hour for the employees of the court house and town.

"Neither the heat of summer or the cold of winter was ever able to completely conquer the old time piece and it has been in constant use save for short periods when minor accidents caused it to cease its constant ticking. The big hail of 1913, which shattered 144 windows in the court house, including those about the clock tower, failed to halt its ticks. Thick blankets of snow or heavy coating of ice did not halt its faithful striking of the hour. In times of storm or calm, always the hour would be struck, though sometimes muffled by the blowing of the wind or heightened by the stillness of the night.

"Towereing as it did above the country-side, the clock tower was used as a lookout in times of flood, to observe the progress of the rising water from the near-by Brazos river, and many a warning was given in time to rescue inhabitants of the lowlands by the use of the tower. It is possible to view the whole country on a clear day or night. The lights of [Waco?] 28 miles away, may be clearly seen. Many bird's eye views of Marlin and Reagan, (just 11 miles away) have been viewed from the tower as it has been in other nearby communities. Many an old pioneer {Begin page no. 8}can remember in his early days the lookout when the Courthouse was first built, and how it was often used by visitors for a view of the country.

"The story of the Falls County Courthouses are of equal interest to the people over the whole county. The old time court days are still held, and at this time the whole county is usually represented. You may see the crowd, a typical one, from the [Brazos?] bottom negro tenant to the wealthy Brazos bottom planter who takes this day to come and visit with his friends or to listen to the latest case being tried in the Courthouse.

"I remember the City Hall as being the oldest building in [Marlin?]. It was erected before the Civil War and was occupied in ante-bellum days as a mercantile establishment by Bartlett and Bowles and then by Green and Bartlett. It served as a school building for a time and was finally bought by the city and converted into the City Hall, housing all of the city's officers.

"On a certain occasion during the reconstruction days, its roof supported a citizen's squad of vigilants, armed with long rifles and shotguns with eyes riveted on the courthouse, watching every crook and turn as the white voters marched between lines of bayonets in the hands of "freedmen soldiers" to exercise their right of the polls. The [parapet?] wall of this building afforded a good gun rest for the vigilantes during the watch.

"For four days this scene was repeated, it taking this long for the voters to register, the county only allowing one voting place by the "carpet-bag" government then in power. But as it so happened the negro "freedmen soldiers" managed to help keep the peace and the voting went off {Begin page no. 9}with no trouble, altho' it was said that out of a spirit of mischief a reckless white man began shooting on the last day and this caused a hurried departure to the Brazos bottom of the negro voters who had been to register.

"At the southeast corner of the building there was erected in 1872 a great flagpole, 100 feet high, from the top of which suspended an immense flag by the supporters of Horace [Greely?] when one branch of the National Democratic party accepted him, a Liberal Republican, as a compromise candidate for the presidency. The pole stood there for many years after the heat of the campaign had died down and the flag, ripped and torn by the wind, was finally lowered. For many years afterward (until it finally succumbed to the elements of nature) the flag pole was known as the "Greely Pole".

"When the city of Marlin bought the building and converted it into a City Hall, it was worked over, inside and out, and a wing was added. Today all the officers of the city are housed there, during the building of the new Courthouse, while the American Legion meets upstairs where the City Library is also housed. The Auxiliary meets downstairs.

"The second floor of this old building was used for many years as law offices by some of the Marlin attorneys. Among them was the firm of Goodrich and Clarkson, attorneys in the famous suit of "Hancock vs Hancock involving the title to a large tract of [Falls?] County land and which went up and down through the courts of Texas for thirty years.

"The engineering workmen of Levi Goodrich, city engineer occupies the same office where his father's law office was during the years he was a {Begin page no. 10}practicing attorney in the early days. This building was also used for a high school building following the burning of the high school building in September of 1900, that stood in the lot where the Marlin Compress Company now stands.

I am the youngest daughter of Dick (John Wesley Hardin Jones) and Sarah Jane Jones who were from Reagan. They had twin girls on January 25, 1932. One only lived 2 days and the other 4 days. They are supposed to be buried in Hog Cemetery. This is October 10, 2004 and I just returned from visiting Hog Cemetery. I found the Jones plots but no markings for the twins. I also don't know who Luther Jones and Carrie Jones were. If you can shed any light on this I would appreciate it. My mother just died this June 26, 2003, and I have no one left to ask questions of. She and my father are buried at Waite Cemetery. Thank you.

Patricia Kelly recalls some of her early-day Reagan memories,"I went back to Reagan many times to visit my Grandfather, my Aunt Nadine and Uncle Bill and their children Betty Sue Crump and Jack Warren Winzer. Jack and I were the same age and visited together quite a lot. I sometimes stayed a night or two on the farm but I usually stayed with my grandfather, Mr. Will as he was called by all who passed him on the street. In his later years. his daughters did not want him to drive but he did anyway for a really long time. When I visited, he would let me drive him to Bremond to get a shave and a haircut when there was no longer a barber in Reagan".

Pat had many fine memories of her Grandfather, Will Winzer, "Mr. Will is my kin but I would claim him even if he were not. His children loved and respected him and so did his grandchildren. I am sure there are others who did too because I never heard him say an unkind word about another person. I did hear him ‘cuss” a mule one time, mildly but he never mistreated an animal, a child nor an employee. He was a Gentleman in the truest sense of the word, beloved by all of us who knew him well. I am proud of my Grandfather".

He died at the age of 94 in a hospital in Marlin, Texas on June 25, 1955 . He was cared for in his later years by his daughter Bess Winzer Shirley. Grandfather lived a full and exemplarily life of playing by the rules but not getting rich except in the devotion of his family, the respect of his friends and service to his community. He was my grandfather, this MR WILL. “
