Ancestors of Eli Royce Twister Lynn

Generation No. 7


      64. Stanmore Greenberry Lynn362, born Abt. 1850 in Duck Spring, De Kalb Co, AL; died Bet. 1894 - 1900 in Izard Co, AR. He was the son of 128. Emsley Lynn and 129. Mary Polly Hammett. He married 65. Mary Jane Samples 08 Jul 1869 in Etowah Co, AL363.

      65. Mary Jane Samples364, born 01 Jun 1853 in TN, USA365; died 05 Feb 1936 in Elmore City, Garvin Co, OK365. She was the daughter of 130. Jesse C Samples and 131. Mahulda Unknown.

Notes for Stanmore Greenberry Lynn:
[lynnside.FTW]

THE FIRST AVAILABLE RECORD FOR STANDMORE GREENBERRY LYNN, OR BERRY AS HIS KIDS KNEW HIM, IS THE 1860 FEDERAL CENSUS OF DEKALB CO. ALABAMA, WHERE HE IS LISTED AS A WHITE MALE 9 YEARS OLD BORN IN ALABAMA. HE IS LIVING WITH HIS MOTHER POLLY AGE 39, AND SIBLINGS JAMES 13, ANDREW 11, JESSIE W. 7, ELIZABETH C. 5, MARGARET M. 3, AND EMSLEY 1.

THE NEXT RECORD I HAVE IS THE MARRIAGE RECORD OF STANMORE LINN TO MARY SAMPLEY ISSUED ON JULY 3, 1869 IN ETOWAH COUNTY ALABAMA, AND EXECUTED ON JULY 8, 1869.

THIRD RECORD IS 1870 ATALLA TOWNSHIP, ETOWAH COUNTY, ALABAMA FEDERAL CENSUS PAGE 310, WHICH LISTS STANMORE AGE 20, WITH MARY J. AGE 19, AND A SON CHARLES AGE 4 MONTHS. I AM NOT SURE IF ANY OF BERRY'S CHILDREN EVER KNEW ABOUT THIS CHILD. IF THEY DID I NEVER HEARD ANYONE MENTION HIM. THERE EVIDENTLY WAS ALSO ANOTHER CHILD WHO DIED BEFORE THE 1880 CENSUS BECAUSE NEITHER OF THESE WAS LISTED ON THE CENSUS IN 1880. [Note by Regonna Fosbury, on this 1870 Atalla Twnshp Census, the head of house is listed as S Anderson Lynn, Not S Greenberry Lynn so I am not including in my genealogy].

IN THE 1900 SHARP COUNTY ARKANSAS CENSUS MARY JANE WAS THE HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD AND SHE STATED THAT SHE WAS THE MOTHER OF 11 CHILDREN, BUT ONLY 9 WERE LIVING. THE 9 CHILDREN WERE STILL IN THE HOUSE WITH HER.

IN 1880 IZARD COUNTY ARKANSAS UNION TOWNSHIP, HE IS LISTED AS STANMORE [Stevmon] G. LINN, 30, WITH MARY J. 28, ROBERT M. 5, THOMAS F. 3, AND JOEL E. 1. ALL THE FEDERAL CENSUS RECORDS WERE DESTROYED BY FIRE, EXCEPT FOR VERY FEW, BUT THE LYNN'S WERE NOT ON THESE FEW, SO I HAVE NO RECORD OF THEM AGAIN UNTIL 1900,

BUT STANMORE IS NOT LISTED WITH MARY JANE IN 1900, SO HE DIED BEFORE 1900, IN EITHER IZARD OR SHARP COUNTY ARKANSAS. HIS LAST CHILD WAS BORN IN JANUARY 1894 SO HE DIED AFTER 1893. I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIND WHERE HE IS BURIED, BUT I AM STILL TRYING TO FIND INFORMATION ON THIS.[indiv2 burleson lynn line.FTW]

Children of Stanmore Lynn and Mary Samples are:
  i.   Robert M Lynn367, born 20 Oct 1874 in Izard Co, AR368; died 15 May 1962 in Pauls Valley, Garvin Co, OK369; married Alpha Autumn Clear 25 Sep 1904 in Evening Shade, Sharp, AR370; born 12 Jul 1888 in Evening Shade, Sharp, AR371; died 05 Apr 1988 in Pauls Valley, Garvin Co, OK371.
  Notes for Robert M Lynn:
Robert is first listed on the census with his parents in Arkansas, Union TWP at age 5, born in AR. In 1900 he is listed with his mother Mary Jane and his 8 brothers and sisters, in Lave Creek, Sharp Co. AR. He had to stay home after the death of his father to help raise the other kids. This could be why he didn't marry until he was nearly 30.
He married Alpha on September 25, 1904 in Evening Shade, Sharp Co. AR. Their first child Harvie was born September 23, 1905 in Evening Shade. They had 7 more children while still in Arkansas. Their 3rd child, Wilbur, died there, when he was 3 months old. He is listed on the 1910 Census as Robert L. with Alpha, Harvey, and Elbert, in Piney Fork, Sharp Co. AR. They lived in the southern part of Sharp Co. on the left bank of the Piney Fork of Strawberry River on the 95 acres they purchased from W.A. Edwards and his wife, on February 24, 1912, for $600.00. Judge Frank Arnold of Evening Shade, says this land is still called the Old Lynn Field.
On October 4, 1912, they sold the land to C.W. Wasson for $700.00. On both these documents, he used the name Robert L. Lynn, instead of Robert M. Lynn. In 1919 they left Arkansas to come to OK where some of his family had already moved.
The 1920 census of Elmore Township, Garvin Co. OK, lists him as Robert L. with Alpha, Harvey, Elbert H., Bessie M., Eulas W., Charles B., Audie M., and Earl M. (This should be Robert Earl aka Deet).
