Descendants of Thomas BOYLSTON, Jr.

327. MARGARET⁸ BROADHURST (MARGARET ANN⁷ FAUBION, PRISCILLA⁶ BOYDSTON, WILLIAM⁵, DAVID⁴, WILLIAM³ BOYLSTON, THOMAS², THOMAS¹) was born Abt. 1854 in Platte Co, MO, and died 30 May 1895. She married JAMES NICHOLS BOYDSTON Unknown, son of NATHANIEL BOYDSTON and DINAH FAUBION. He was born 07 Jan 1845 in Buchanan Co, MO, and died Unknown in Oklahoma.

Notes for MARGARET BROADHURST:
Note that Margaret Emma Broadhurst, daughter of John F. & Zilpha (Gray) Broadhurst, would be approximately the right age to have married James N. Boydston.

However, Steve Verden assigns Margaret, daughter of Jacob Broadhurst, to James N. Boydston. This marriage may have come from "Faubion and Related Families," a source he cites extensively.

There are several Margaret Broadhursts, and the confusion runs high.

Notes for THOMAS WILSON FAUBION:
Notes of Steve Verden:

From Faubion & Allied Families, p. 561.

Thomas' mother died when he was six years old, and one year later, his father married Miss Frances Rebecca Ligon. When he was 11 years old, his family moved to Barton County, MO where they bought a farm near Milford. Tom grew to adulthood here, and although he was 14-18 years old during the civil war, it is not known if he served. Most of the farms in the county were devastated by marauding bands of soldiers or guerrillas. The danger was so great that according to the Story of Barton County, only 6 families remained in the county.

Thomas married Christiana in 1869. Her father had died in 1860 and her mother in 1869, leaving four children to operate the Cook farm. Thomas and Christiana bought the farm from Christiana's sister and two brothers. Tom was a successful farmer and raised a family of 8 boys and 2 girls, all born on the farm. He died of a heart attack on the farm 21 Dec 1911 at the age of 64. He was buried on his farm in the Cook-Faubion Cemetery.

Notes for HERBERT WILSON FAUBION:
Steve Verden's notes indicate that Herbert Wilson Faubion died 8 Jun 1963 in Las Vegas, Clark Co, Nevada.

Previously I had the death date as 10 Sep 1927 in Los Angeles, CA. Since Steve's notes seem very complete on the life of Herbert, I have used his dates.

He further says that Herbert attended the one-room Prairie Rose School in Barton County, MO. He worked on farms near his home until he saved enough money to go to Los Angeles, CA in 1904, where he found a job as a streetcar conductor. By 1907, he qualified for appointment as a U.S. Railway mail clerk, and sorted mail on Santa Fe trains from Los Angeles to Ashfork, Arizona, and back. He returned to Missouri to marry his childhood sweetheart, Myrtle Akers, and they returned to Los Angeles and built a home at 326 W. 52nd Place.

Of their five children, Raymond was killed by an automobile at age 3. Myrtle died from septicemia following a tooth extraction in 1927. Herbert raised the children alone until 1933, when he married an old friend from Barton County, MO, Mrs. Ethel (Maupin) Frisbie. He continued to work for the U.S. Railway Mail Service until after World War II. He retired in his 70s and moved to Las Vegas in the hope that the desert climate would help his arthritis. He died there from a heart attack.

Steve says he was a good cook and a fine handyman, keeping the home in good condition by painting, plastering, and re-roofing himself. He bought his first car, a 1922 Chevrolet, and built a garage and driveway for it himself. He also greased, changed the oil, and ground the valves for it.

Notes for MYRTLE AKERS:
After her marriage, Myrtle was an active member of Atherton Baptist Church, where she played the piano for Sunday services. She and Herbert raised chickens and had a large vegetable garden at their home, and planted fruit trees. They had a cellar stocked with home canned produce and preserves, a large crock of sauerkraut, and root vegetables. They bought a rental house at 110 E. 55th Street and four building lots.
