Husb. of Laura B. Mayberry: F/o Lenora Mayberry [Knight]

From Abraham Lincoln's farm in Illinois to Vinita is a little of the territory covered by "JC" in his life. Born in Illinois, J.C came to Indian Territory in 1906 and lived there for the remainder of his life. One of J.C's favorite tales was about his life on Abe Lincoln's place in Illinois. On cold mornings when a youngster, he sometimes rode behind Lincoln on a horse, and he would place his feet in the future President's pockets to keep them warm. (Paraphrased from the Vinita Leader, June 27, 1946 by sathre).
