Lucy Angeline Wheeler Pipes Find A Grave Memorial# 71032821

Birth:  Dec., 1831 Bedford County, Tennessee, USA

Death: unknown

Lucy Angeline Wheeler was born in about December, 1831, in Bedford County, Tennessee, a daughter of Jesse Wheeler and Sarah “Sallie” Oslin.

She was first married to William B McGuire, a widower with several children, (reportedly) on January 7, 1848, in Limestone County, Alabama; and that marriage was reportedly blessed with five children:

Mollie (about 1848 - ????)

Sarah P (about 1852 - ????) who married John W Gray in 1870

Cornelius W (1855 - 1901 ) and was apparently called “Rufus” as an adolescent but was later known as “Neal” (See #6162602) ??? C.W. and Rufus different people?? Census 1870,Limestone has Cornelius age 16 with Lucy A Maguire age 38 Tenn and Viloa age 5 and also Rufus McGuire age 15 with George Pipe 23 and Angeline age 37.

Louisa H (about 1859 - ????)

Viola (about 1862 - ????)

She was widowed when William B McGuire passed away in about 1866; and she then married her second husband, George Washington Pipes, on July 2, 1870. That marriage was blessed with three children:

Martha Iona (about 1871 - 1913)

James Johnson ( about 1873 - 1957)

Un-named Female (born & died about 1880)

George W and Angeline Pipes reportedly migrated into Van Zandt County (from Limestone County, Alabama) in 1892; and they were enumerated in Van Zandt County during the U S Census of 1900, along with their son, James J Pipes. That 1900 Census indicates that Angeline had born a total of eight children; but only four were still living at that time ... probably being Martha, Cornelius, Viola & James.

No precise date of death for Angeline Pipes has yet been discovered; but George was enumerated as a widower in the subsequent Census of 1910. That evidence suggests that she passed away sometime during the time interval between the 1900 and 1910 censuses.

He joined the Confederate army in 1861 and fought throughout the war. He came to Texas in 1892, locating first in Van Zandt County, coming to Terrell in 1929. He is survived by one son, J. J.

-------------------------------------

George Washington Pipes was a son of Phillip Pipes and Margaret "Peggy" Hill.

George enlisted in the 26th (Coltart's) Regiment, Alabama Infantry, CSA, along with his brother (John Pipes, #30764619), in 1861. The 26th was renamed the 50th Alabama Infantry in 1863; and unit was engaged in the major battles at Shiloh, Murfreesboro, and Chickamauga (where George was reportedly wounded). The 50th was also active in the defense of Atlanta during union General Sherman's assault.

After the war, George returned to Alabama; and he subsequently married Angeline McGuire (a widow with several children) on July 2, 1870, in Limestone County, Alabama; and that marriage was blessed with three children (U S Census of 1880):

Martha Iona (born about 1871 - 1913)

James Johnson (1872 - 1957)

Un-Named female ( born & died about 1880)

-------------------------------------------

Biographical footnotes:

George Pipes was a brother of Samuel S Pipes (#41937852); and, following the death of his wife, George was enumerated as widowed in Samuel's Johnson Co, Texas, household during the U S Census of 1910.

While the obituary and a D/C indicate that burial was to take place in White Rose Cemetery, George Pipes does not appear in the published inventory; therefore, his resting place in White Rose may be unmarked.
