Edmund Pendleton Gaines

M, #13669

Pedigree Link

Family: Emily Esther Easley

Daughter

Myra Clark Gaines+ (b. 9 September 1856, d. 22 June 1910)

BASIC FACTS

Edmund Pendleton Gaines was buried in Peter Miller Reeves Cemetery, Knob Creek Road just south of its intersection with Sunset Drive.¹

Edmund Pendleton Gaines had reference number 13937. Edmund Pendleton Gains, my mother's father, was the nephew of General Edmund Pendleton Gains, for whom he was named. His father was a wealthy man, at one time owning among other things, an inn and one hundred slaves. But my great-grandfather lost his fortune, mostly, I understood, from going security for his friends.

Grandfather took an interest in one of the black boys on his father's place and taught him to read and write. After the slaves were freed this Negro went North and did well.

Grandfather was a man of Deep religion and of a mild temperament. I have heard my mother say that his thoughts were always of what he could do to help the women folks of his family and make them happy. He was a school teacher and wrote a beautiful hand.

He married Emily Esther Easley, and they had two children, a baby boy who died at birth, and my mother. He was not a large man, and through him I inherited my own short stature. He was also a very modest man.

He spent his last years in his daughter's home, but died before I was born. He read aloud to my brother a great deal, especially from the Youth's Companion.

He brought with him to his last home, a gray mare named Mittie. It was on her I learned to ride, for she was very gentle. A short loper, having no other gait.

When he was a young man he was chopping wood and a piece flew up and hit him near the eye. In later life he developed a cancer where this had injured him. In those days there was little to be done for even skin cancer and two or three years later he died. Though he suffered greatly, he would never take anything to dull the pain, even at the last, for he said he wanted to meet his Maker with a clear mind.

He was buried in the Reeves Cemetery, and in 1929 when my husband and I went back to Tennessee on business, we had a monument placed at his and his wife's graves.

He and Grandmother made their home down on what was called Reedy Creek, near Kingsport. When my mother was a baby he was putting on her shoes for her and bent a toe and broke it. He felt terrible about it, for he was devoted to her. I have a small figurine that he brought her when she was a child, and a broken pitcher from a set of doll china he gave her.

I wish I knew more about him to tell, for I know it was all good. But there is very little else I know

(Edmund Pendleton Gaines, son of John Strother Gaines and Letitia Dalton Moore, was born 22 Oct 1827, in Sullivan County, TN. He died 18 July 1888 at the home of his daughter Myra at Johnson City, TN.

The above was written by his granddaughter, Willie Reeves Hardin Bivins.
