I don't have a PLUMMER Cemtery on my 'current' list, but in the information given us yesterday by Anne, there was an Edward Plummer Family Plot, and William Plummer Family Plot. I am wondering if that is what was once the Plummer Cem? I have not even gotten close to trying to locate those 2 yet. I did have some luck with a couple of others. Did they re-inter the remains maybe to the Picketville Cemetery, that is now WESTVIEW? That would be the next closest cemetery- I think.

LOL. > Yvonne > (Union Camp Corp / Chemical Products Division, 5220 Belfort Rd., > Jacksonville, FL., 1-904-332-1800). > John Seymour Pickett II was buried in what we called the "Old Plummer Field" near the interesection of Old Lane Ave and Davel St, under what was, some years back, touted as the state's largest magnolia tree. Unfortunately, a railway car unloading facility was built adjacent, and the tree died. At least one of of the three graves known to exist under the tree, was moved to Westview Cemetary, on Pickettville Road, that of John Seymour Pickett II. My grandfather's land, (Herbert Pickett) backed up to that property, and I can remember seeing a marker for one of the graves, with Confederate markings. I gather it would have been for one of the children of John Seymour Pickett II. Our family of Picketts is still quite large here in Pickettville, and we would appreciate any light you might shine on our family heritage.

John died 1847 or 1848, Pickettville, Duval Co., Fl, buried: Plummer Cemetery, Duval County. Seymour and his bride, Rebecca, came by ship from Charleston, SC to Savannah, GA where they boarded the ship of Capt. George Murray. He was heading a colony to settle in Florida, as the Spanish Government encouraged settlers to come in and develop the land and to help control the Indians. Just off the coast of St. Augustine, they encountered a tropical storm and the ship was washed up on the bar and wrecked. Some of the passengers were lost. Among the lost was Rebecca, wife of John Seymour. He did manage to save his small daughter, Mary Rebecca. As Captain Murray's ship was wrecked in service to the Spanish government, he and his colonists were granted land in 1803 in what is now New Smyrna. In 1804 Pickett bought Hoquin's Plantation from Reuben Hogan, a Revolutionary soldier. The 1814 East Florida Spanish Census lists Seymour (Seymound) Pickett and his wife Rebecca Maria as residents of the Town of Fernandina on Amelia Island. Pickett married his second wife in Nassau County, FL. She was Maria Pons, from St. Augustine. Her parents were Juan and Juana C. Andrew Pons, natives of Minorca, and they lived in St. Augustine. Pickett and his wife lived in Smyrna, now known as New Smyrna. They lived in that colony for five years, but were forced to flee with the other settlers to St. Augustine, as the Indians had burned the settlement to the ground. They moved to Sibbald's Tract in Duval County, six miles north of the little settlement that would later become Jacksonville in 1822. During the War of 1812-1813, Pickett suffered heavy personal and estate losses and petitioned a claim to the government for reimbursement. The countryside was burned and pillaged, little was left outside the gates of St. Augustine. Seymour Pickett was one of the first signers for Florida to become a territory of the United States. After Florida became a territory in 1821, Pickett petitioned the government for and was granted the 640 acres on Sibbald's Tract in Duval Co.,that he had settled. It was called Lains Branch and is now part of Lane Avenue in Jacksonville. There is a bridge there now called Pickett's bridge, bounded on the north by Trout River (now at Dinsmore). He settled the area of Lane Avenue and Old Kings Road and it became known as Pickettville. In 1821, he was given the right to keep his Duval and Nassau County lands. Pickett Road, south of Callahan is part of that land grant, also. I. Mary Rebecca Pickett (daughter of John Seymour Pickett, II and Rebecca Collier) m. Thomas Bellows. II.

Name: Grace Estelle PICKETT Sex: F Birth: 3 NOV 1891 in Callahan, Nassau County, FL Death: 18 FEB 1986 in Nassau Co., Callahan, FL Burial: Jones Cemetery, Callahan, Nassau Co., Fl Census: 1920 Marianna, Jackson Co FL Reference Number: 1585 Note: Grace Estelle Pickett was the eighth child of Henry Clay and Emily Denore Braddock Pickett. She was born in the year of 1891 in Callahan, Nassau County, Florida. Her father, Henry C., was a contractor, builder, farmer and cattleman, and the home that he built is located on Pickett Road south of Callahan, which is the home now owned by Mr. Cary Holmes. Grover Cleveland was President of the United States during this period of time, when Grace was a young girl. William McKinley was President in 1896 and the Spanish American War began April 21, 1898, and Spanish American War hero Theodore Roosevelt became vice president in 1900. He took over when McKinley was assassinated less than one year later. Grace's family produced and grew their own beef, pork, chicken, corn, potatoes, vegetables and sugarcane. Also milk, eggs and butter. They would butcher their own beef and tan the cowhides for chair seats. When the weather grew cold in the winter, they would have "hog killings" and butcher hogs, make homemade sausage, hams and bacon, and hang them in the smoke house to be smoked and cured. They would have Cane grindings to make cane syrup in the large syrup boiler outside. She baked homemade breads as bread wasn't bought in the grocery store in those days. How well I remember her delicious home made cake with chocolate fudge icing! She grew up knowing how to do all of these things and learned to sew clothes for her family as well. Grace grew up to be a beautiful young woman, and married Lawrence Beasley, a cross tie inspector, from Columbia, South Carolina. They lived in Marianna, Florida, with his parents, and had three children. Times were hard, and jobs were scarce. He left town to look for work in Texas, and later they could come join him when he found work. But he never contacted them or came back to get them. Grace and her children journeyed back to Callahan on the train to be with her people. Her sister Dessie and her brother Ellwell helped her to find work and an apartment to live in. She worked as a telephone operator for awhile and for the Singer Sewing Machine Co. Later, she rented a large house and took in boarders to support her family. About eight years later, John Brandies, a local dairyman ask Grace to marry him. To this marriage was born six children. Grace thought her life would be better when she married John, but it became ever harder, as he had became an alcoholic. She worked hard in the dairy, cooked for all of the hired dairy hands and raised nine children. She was a wonderful Christian mother, and loved all of her children. She taught Sunday School in the children's department on Sundays. She had an entertaining sense of humor, and at times, a hint of mischief in her eye. In spite of her hardships and circumstances, she was a happy person and never complained. She was known to have said that she was thankful that out of nine children, she didn't have any on the chain gang! She could sit down at the piano and play "by ear," she never had any lessons. Sometimes she would just put on a show and entertain her children and grandchildren, and we loved it. Some of her brothers and sisters were musically inclined, also. When any of her children or grandchildren were sick and needed someone to be with them, she would come and sit with them, cook and do what she could help them out. When she was older, she loved to travel with her children, when she had the opportunity. She was a humble lady and never wanted to be any trouble to them or to inconvenience anyone, which seemed to make them want to do more for her. Her life wasn't easy, but she did whatever she had to do when she faced the problems in life that were placed before her. This lady was a survivor and she was known to her family as, "Amazing Grace". When she was old, she told me, "I don't know why I've lived so long, If I had known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself"! She lived to be 94 years old. I just hope that I will inherit just a few of her qualities, she was so special. Submitted by: Jean Hodges Mizell, granddaughter.

Florida Name: Helen Estelle BEASLEY Sex: F Birth: 7 FEB 1915 in Callahan, Nassau Co., FL Census: 1920 Marianna, Jackson Co FL Reference Number: 5353 Note: Helen Estelle Beasley Hodges, 1995 1915 - Helen Estelle Beasley was born, February 7, 1915, in Callahan, Florida, in the home of her grandmother, Emily Braddock Pickett. For that day and time it was considered a nice home and it was on the corner of road US 1 and road A1A where the intersection of US1, 301 and SR200, on the southwest corner. Helen's family lived in Marianna, Florida at this time, but her mother wanted to come home and be near her mother, when Helen was to be born. Helen was the third child of Lawrence Winfred Beasley, who was born in Columbia, S. C. Her Mother was a good Christian woman named, Grace Estelle Pickett, born in Callahan, Florida. After Helen was born, when her mother was able, they journeyed back home to Marianna. Helen's earliest memory there was that they lived upstairs in a two story house and her Grandmother and Grandfather Beasley and their youngest daughter, Ruth, who was about 14 years old at the time, lived downstairs. She loved them very much and can remember them holding her and singing to her. She was the baby of her family then, with a brother two and a half years old and a sister that was four. Her mother, Grace, worked for Singer Sewing Machine Co., that had a shop upstairs there. At this time, her Father, Lawrence, was a log and timber inspector for a large company. He took care of the whole family then. She remembered that they had a Nash automobile and her mother was such a good driver that she was asked by several of her friends to teach them how to drive, and she did. That was a wonder in those days, as women didn't have the privileges that they enjoy now. Her mother became very popular and had many friends there. But soon, this would all end, as her Father was popular too, --- with the ladies. His Boss's wife fell for him, they left town together and life was never the same again. Woodrow Wilson was President of the United States at this time. 1917 - World War I began. 1918 - Times were hard, especially for a mother with three small children, so Grace and her family planned to leave Marianna and go back home to live near her people in Callahan. Helen remembered, as they left how sad her black Nanny was and how she had cried for Grace to take her to live with them, as she loved them all so much. But Grace knew that she would not be able to support her children and a Nanny, even though she wanted to work for them for "free". They parted and rode the train back home to Callahan. Helen was only three years old, at the time, and would never forget the train coaches were full of soldiers riding off to fight in World War I. She was the only little child there and they would take turns holding and cuddling her, with tears streaming down their faces, remembering their own children left without a father at home. Many of these brave young men never returned. War is, indeed, a terrible agony for the human race, and this was supposed to be the war that would end all wars. When they arrived back in Callahan, they went to live with Grace's sister Dessie and her husband, Cuyler Hilliard, in Orange Park, where they worked on his dairy farm, until they could find a place to live. 1919 - Warren G. Harding elected President of the USA. This was the beginning of the Probition Era when gangsters began "bootlegging" liquor and crime increased. Later, Calvin Cooledge was Elected President, and this was the time of Farm and Labor Hardships. Most American farmers became poor because of high tariff and crop surpluses. The KuKlux Klan was revived. 1920 - The Roaring 20's era. Herbert Hoover was President. As a whole, most of the country prospered. Riotous spending and real-estate booms sent prices skyrocketing. Henry Ford put " America on wheels" with his "Model T Ford". 1921- World War I ended. After some time, Grace found a house and moved to Jacksonville where she opened a rooming house and made a living renting rooms and cooking for boarders. Later, they moved to Callahan to the large two-story house on Green Street near the corner of Mickler Street, that was called the "Virginia White House". Grace needed a larger rooming house, as time went on, and the family moved to the "Mickler House," which was later known as the "Newt Conner home," and was located on the corner of Mickler and Green Street, where the First Baptist Church Family Life Center is today. Grace, also, worked as the church custodian for the "old" church, while living at this house, and Helen and Larry would go in the bellfrey and ring the church bell every Sunday morning for church. The US 1 highway was being surveyed through the State of Florida at this time, and Helen's Mother boarded the survey Boss, his crew and two of the crews wives. The years passed, and they moved to a twostory house called the "Higginbotham House" that was across US 301 in front of where the Elementary School is now, and Rented rooms to boarders. Grace's brother Elworth Pickett was a kind, and good man and had helped her whenever he could. He had a "general store" on Dixie Ave. His slogan was--- "Buys what you want to sell and sells what you want to buy". Upstairs, there was the Telephone Office and some vacant rooms, which he offered to Grace and her children to live in. They moved and she got a job as the first telelphone operator in Callahan. No one in Callahan had a telephone in those days, so it was up to Helen and her brother to summond people to the telephone office to talk on the telephone, when a call came through. Theyt were paid 25 cents for each walk to summond. In those days, 25 cents looked like a fortune to them! Through the years, Helen's mother, Grace, had worked as a seamstress, ran a rooming House and cooked for boarders and, also, worked as a telephone operator, to support her family the best she could in her day day and time. How she had time to do all of this was a "wonder". Helen learned to sew by watching her Mother and was able to help her. The next house that they moved to was the "Thomas house", located on US 1, across from Walter Hodges, Sr. home. Helen was six years old, and it was in this house that Helen's grandmother Pickett was living with them before she passed away, with a heart attack. 1925 - Now, Mr. John S. Brandies was a local dairyman that owned a dairy on A1A, about a block East of US 1 in Callahan. 1927 - John Brandies and Grace had six children. Meanwihle, Helen was left at home on the dairy farm, and her step-father took her out of school to help her Mother run the milk room at the dairy. It was her job to make the butter for market and wash the milk containers. She also, helped her mother cook and make biscuits for all of the dairy hands that worked there. She didn't think that anybody had cooked more biscuits than she had cooked! Until this day, she does not care for biscuit and wouldn't care if she never had to eat another one! Also, she had to carry heavy buckets of water from the well for cooking and for bath water for the family. Throughout her childhood, Helen had always been friends and had played with Thelma Hodges, who lived across the street from her. Thelma's older brother was Walter Hodges, and about this time, Helen and Walter had begun dating. Helen finally left home when she was eighteen and married Walter Hodges. 1933 - This was the year that Walter W. Hodges, Jr. and Helen Beasley were married in Folkston, Georgia. They lived with Walter's parents for about a year. Walter worked for his father, W. W. Hodges, Sr., on his chicken farm for $7.00 a week. Walter and Helen, also, helped run his father's chicken hatchery. His father gave him the land for their chicken farm that was a mile and a half East of Callahan, on what is now called Hodges Road, where they built a small house to live in on their farm. Later, Walter's father wanted to get out of the hatchery business, and they continued to run it until Walter built his own hatchery at his farm. They were so busy and happy and didn't have much in those early years, but had "love and commitment". Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected President that year. 1935 - On May 18, 1935, Walter and Helen's first child, Jean Theresa, a beautiful baby girl, was born to them. Helen has stated that "She has been the greatest blessing God could give them". 1937 - Her daughter, Jean, was entered in Sixth National Photograph Contest and won fifth National prize in the United States. 1939 - Purchased their first automobile, a 1939 Plymouth, and was so proud of it! 1941 - World War II began when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor in Hawaii and was a very difficult time for our Country. There was a shortage of doctors and nurses in the hospitals here in the states, as many of them had gone away to the war to care for our wounded and dying servicemen overseas. This was the year that Jean started to school and Walter and Helen's second child, Vivian Patricia, was born on July 24th. She was a beautiful little baby girl with black hair, and was a "blue baby" which was a heart defective condition.. The hospitals were very crowded and short of nurses at this time and there wasn't room in the baby nursery for her, so they had to but her in an incubator outside of the nursery in the hospital hall. She died on July 26, 1941. This was such a sad time in our lives. This was the last child born to this family. During the war, you could hardly buy an automobile or truck, since they were so scarce. We had to repair whatever we had, and make-do the best we could with what we had, until the war was over. Meat, sugar, butter, coffee and cigarettes were rationed, as these items were needed to be sent to feed our service men fighting the war. The government issued "rationed food stamps and tokens" to purchase each family's limited allowance of these foods. Instead of sugar, we used karo syrup and homemade syrup in place of sugar, when our allowance was used up. Automobiles (metal), tires (rubber) and leather were also rationed and scarce, as metal and rubber were used to make machine guns, army tanks, trucks and jeeps for the war, and leather was used to make boots for our soldiers. Helen, along with other women volunteers, helped the Red Cross make childrens overalls and shirts for the orphaned children of the war in Europe. They also made bandages for our servicemen that were wounded and in the hospitals. Japanese war planes were sighted off the coast of the U. S., and the President ordered everyone had to paint their automobile headlights with black paint, on the upper half of the headlights, to make it harder for any "Jap" planes to see cars down below at night, and to avoid possibly being bombed by the "Japs". In our homes at night, we had to have blackout curtains and could have only one or two lights on to try to keep our homes and towns from being easily seen in the dark. Farmers raised crops and meat to feed our troupes in the war. Walter was a farmer, of course, and every time he received an update on his draft card status, he would be relieved that he was not drafted again for that time. He was needed more on the farm, to produce more chickens and eggs to help feed our country. We were fortunate to have pretty floral printed feed sacks, that chicken feed came in, which Helen used to sew pretty dresses and shirts. Sheets, pillow cases, dish towels and underwear were sewn from white feed sacks that had been bleached. Also, we had plenty of chicken and eggs to eat. Fried chicken was "special" for Sunday dinner. Most people had to have a garden to have enough food to eat for the family. We ate lots of beans, rice, biscuits and cornbread, too. We canned our fruits and vegetables from the garden for winter and grew sugar cane, had cane grindings and made home made syrup. Coffee was very scarce and we drank a lot of Postum and Ovaltine, and of course we had milk cows for milk and butter and, also raised hogs to butcher for meat. Walter was an excellent deer hunter and we had plenty of vinison and wild game to eat. Helen was a faithful Christian mother and active church worker and Sunday School teacher, at the First Baptist Church in Callahan, from about 1938 until around 1960, where she taught various age groups from three year olds to teenagers. She was, also, a teacher in Vacation Bible School, and was the wife of Walter W. Hodges, Jr., who was the Chairman of the Board of Deacons for several years and was also Sunday School Superintendant. 1945 - Harry S. Truman was President that year and ordered the Atomic bomb to be dropped on Hiroshima. World War II was over, it was a joyous time for the American people and our allies! During Jean's school years, Helen was very active in the PTA, and was a dependable room-mother for many years. Helen and Walter were active workers in the Northeast Florida Fair, when it was started around 1949, entering chicken and egg exhibits and winning blue ribbons. Helen was President of the Home Extension Club in Callahan during this time, and entered many beautiful exhibits in the Home Sewing division of the Fair. Her beautiful dresses, suits and other clothing won many blue ribbons. She even designed beautiful ladies hats with matching purses and shoes! One year, she designed and made a beautiful navy blue voile dress that won a blue ribbon in the 27th annual Florida State Council of Home Demonstration Workers. In 1953, she made Jean's beautiful satin wedding dress that was appliqued with lace and embrodieried with seed pearls. She, also, painted oil paintings and won blue ribbons on them. She had so many talents! 1948 - Bought first station wagon.

The following February, Dorman went to work on the chicken farm for Walter. Walter loved and enjoyed his three grandsons and took Clyde and Larry bird and squirrel hunting with him. Clyde tried his patience at times from some of the things that he did. He was a mischievous, adventuresome boy, not at all like the tame, only little girl that he had raised and been used to. It was such a shocking difference! Mike was only two and a half at this time, and the "apple of Walter's eye", especially since the older boys would aggravate him so bad at times. 1963 - John F.

After Walter's death, Hodges Poultry Farm, Inc. was established. Dorman had operated the farm during Walter's illness and was under a lot of stress and pressure, shouldering this big responsibility. He was the logical person to be President of the Corporation. Helen was Vice President and Treasury and Jean was Secretary. This period in time was very difficult for all of us to endure. Life would never be the same again. Helen's life went on after the death of her husband, Walter.

Inside these pages, I will be featuring selected Southern family genealogies of founding Florida pioneer settlers and their descendants. These pioneers migrated mostly from South Carolina and Georgia and settled in northeast Florida, and many were born here as native Floridians, when Florida was a Territory, before it became a state in 1845. Like the beautiful old Spanish moss covered liveoak trees, their roots grow deep in Florida's sands of time. Our people fought and lived through the wars of the British, French, Indians, Spanish, the World Wars and now, the Afganistans. "In GOD We Trust".

Nathaniel Wilds, III, born 1810 Nassau County, Florida, married Hester Ann Braddock, May 13,1831, in Camden Co., Georgia, a daughter of John David and Martha Christopher Braddock of Nassau Co. Florida. They settled down at Wilds landing, where Capt. Nat, as he was called, helped his father operate a ferry. An 1850 survey map of the St. Marys River, shows a road from the landing going South about a quarter of a mile, splitting and going West toward Kings Ferry and last to the Bell River and on to Fernandina. The ferry crossing was operated for more than 70 years, until the bridge was built across the St. Marys River. This was a very busy operation, for this day and time, the crossing of Wilds landing was a primary gateway to Florida for more that a hundred years. Ref: "Yesterday's Reflections" by Jan Johannes.

Keen was the pioneer ancestor of most of the Keen/Keenes that lived in Florida and south Georgia. James M. Keen was born in Tattnall County, Georgia, He was probably a son of David Keen of Tattnall County, Georgia and his first wife. James M. Keen was a private in the Florida Militia for three enlistments during the Florida Seminole Indian Wars. James and Apsilla had 15 children, all being born before the Civil War. The first four were born in Tattnall Co., Ga., the next two in Appling Co., Ga., the next three in Columbia Co., Fl, the next two in Jacksonville, Duval Co., Fl, and the remaining four in Columbia Co., Fl . This shows that they must have moved several times, coming from Georgia down into Florida. He died Sept. 29, 1895, at Polk Co., Fl, and was buried at Mt. Olive Cemetery. Apsilla, his wife, died four years after her 15th child was born in 1856 in Columbia Co., Fl and was buried near Lake City, Fl. James M. Keen was the grandfather of James Wesley Keen, born 1859.
