Harvey and Maude had a double wedding at MiddleCreek Baptist Churchwith Harvey's sister, Merle, and Lilburn Owens.

**************************************************************************************
Harvey McGlothin met May Sexton in Scott County TN when he and histhree children boarded at the same place May was boarding as shetaught in a local school. May would walk to school with and home withRuth.

Per Marie's son, Johnny, Marie didn't think too highly of May afterMay and Harvey were married. John, Marie's husband, would tease Marieby telling his children to call May Grandma or Grandma May. Mariewould say, "She ain't nothing to them." Marie and May were friends,Johnny said, but only to a point.
Observation by myself: it must have been difficult on all three ofHarvey's children when he married a woman their age, and especiallywhen May had Madge and June. 06-03-07

***************************************************************************************

Harvey and May McGlothin lived on Back Valley Road in Coalfield TN forall of their married life. It was the same house Harvey and his firstwife, Maude, lived in.

June remembers when the house was remodeled. May had the houseremodeled and changed the Mansard roof and the upstairs. Originallythe house had a porch on the east and west side and possibly on thenorth side and may have been t-shaped. May had those porches takenin. In later years, the rooms that were once the porches sagged.There would have been only 3 rooms downstairs then--the living room,the bedroom that was always called the "front" bedroom and thekitchen, which was to be grandma mcglothin's bedroom as we knew it.The steps to the second floor were originally on the west side of thehouse, on the opposite side of grandma's bedroom that they whilegrandma was alive.

The kitchen became a room that spanned the width of the house. One ofit's features was built in cabinets that were flush with the wall.These were white and had small doors, upper and lower cabinets.Grandma's floor was red and white tile and she had a red metal kitchentable and chairs.

Grandma's counter tops in the kitchen were red, too. But they werekind of soft, like tile. They wrapped around one end of her kitchenand the cabinet nearest the wide opening to the dining room haddrawers that opened out towards the center of the room. It also had aflat surface that opened out. This is where grandma kept hersilverware (top drawer) and her kitchen towels.

When Grandma decided to move home from Oliver Springs, Dad (JesseKesterson) redid the kitchen and put in new cabinets. Somehow thatend cabinet, the one with the silverware, ended up upstairs. Aftergrandma died, I brought it home and was going to refinish it. Idiscovered that it was one end of a roll-top desk.

Grandma's house had a wide front porch with a swing. Jesse Kestersonsat in the swing a few years after mom (June McGlothin Kesterson) diedand said he had spent many, many evenings in that swing with Mom.

The front porch had brick steps that went to the ground, then wideconcrete "landings" that went on down the hill, and finally more stepsthat went down to the road level. There was a rock wall about six oreight feet high that lined the roadway for a bit.

The steps going to the second floor were steep and dark. A stringattached to a chain at the bare-bulb light fixture and to a hook nearthe bottom of the steps was used to turn the light on and off--thelight being at the top of the stairs.

There were double windows at each end of the open second floor.Poppaw McGlothin or someone had built four or five "file" cabinetswith doors that open instead of drawers and were held closed by smallblocks of wood that were held in place by a nail.
These sat on the second floor with their backs to the stairs andprevented one from falling down the stairs. As a child, I loved to goupstairs and look in these. They were full of littletreasures--fountain pens, stamps, paper. After grandma died, we foundfive of these. I have one of them, but it isn't in good shape and hasbeen painted white.

In an undated interview with May McGlothin, she said that "Harvey" stayed with Rachel & Cecil Carson "and all her kids", which is where he met May, who was boarding there, too.

On another occasion, May talked about the woman who ran her boarding house (may not have been the Carsons) and said that the woman opened May's mail and read it. She wanted May to marry her son and didn't want May to receive correspondence with anyone else.

Denny, Wesley's son, sold a watch that belonged to Wesley to Abraham.
This note is per May McGlothin, who didn't identify Abraham.

May McGlothin believed the McGlothins in Coalfield followed the Fagansto this area. The Fagans are found in the 1930 census in the Camparea of coalfield, north of Highway 62 but earlier in the Coalhillarea. No other evidence supports this.

************************************************************
Wesley McGlothin was working in the mines on September 18, 1894 when awall of slate flell on him. Witnesses helped lift some of the slateoff of him and said he was working in the door to his room. The slatewas said to be "rotten". The death was ruled an accident by aninvestigation. Documentation in binders from the Bureau of Minesinvestigations. 06-03-07

******************************************************************************

William Wesley (Wesley) McGlothin was born in Virginia in 1847 anddied in a coal mining accident in 1894 while living in Coalfield. Heattended school in Virginia and is listed with the family on the 1860census in Blount County, Tennessee.

Jos. Richards, Jr., Supt. Oliver Coal Co., Oliver Springs, Tenn.

Dear Sir : As soon as you get the Felker entry through to the prop, make it a permanent air-course ; also put up a good furnace, one that will give a sufficient quantity of air for the men on the inside; and be very careful to examine the loose slate on the cross entries and haulways. As soon as you have complied with these changes you will greatly oblige me by notifying this office.

Yours very respectfully,
Jno. E. Lloyd, Com. of Labor $ Ins. of Mines.

Wesley McLaughlin was killed by turning a room on Ivey Entry, September 18th, by a fall of slate; cause, as proven by the evidence of those present, that as the rules are of this company in turning these rooms from the entry are 6 feet wide and this was 10 feet wide, thus giving room for the draw slate in the neck of the room to draw and give, so as to give chance to the entry top, which is full of slants, as a general thing, to give way also, and as common. He intended to stand a prop as soon as he could get the car loaded and take some of the draw slate down in the face of his room.

Testimony of A.R.Wall: I was working in about 12 feet of deceased when the slate fell on him and killed him. He was on the entry near the mouth of his room. I helped take some of the slate off him. He was loading a car when it happened. The fall was rotten slate. I think there was two or three tons. I was the first man to him.

Testimony of W.H. Jackson: I worked in Richards Mine today. I know that Wesley McGlothin was killed there. He was killed by a fall of rotten slate. There were three or four tons of it. He was loading a car in the entry near the mouth of his room when it occurred. Roe Wall told me that he told McGlothin that the top was "drummy". It should have been timbered.

The verdict of the jury was that he came to his death by falling slate.
