Oney James Highland the eldest child of Saul and Loney Ida Mae(Haynes)Highland was a WW II Veteran, playing taps for other soldiers. He was deployed overseas. He came back to Iuka and Married Lila White and had a daughter Martha Mashburn, his granddaughter Nika Johnson and her children still reside in Iuka. He retired from Reynolds in Florence Al. Uncle James was an active member and well thought of at the Patrick Methodist Church. His bothers were Porter Highland buried in New Caney Tx. William Albert "Cooter" Highland also buried at the Patrick Cemetery. His sisters were Pearl Barrett, Lorene Rhodes, Christine Cooper, Ruby Walker-Brown, Mary Mcclung, Emer Gene White, Ann Wiley and Betty Quillen. He is remembered as an honest, godly man and a loving father and grandfather. He loved his mother very much and she depended on him greatly in her final years he was never too busy or too tired for her, and I have the greatest respect for him and his memory.
