Notes:

Coalfield school year 1963 was in session. I was in the 8th grade and it was during history class that Aunt Ruth McGlothin Hamby called me to the front of the room and told me that Uncle Dennie McGlothin had died. Other records say it was 1964. I don't care to argue the date, but recall how hurt it was to know Uncle Dennie was no longer with us. I really didn't know what to make of it. During the summer my sister Jenny and I had gone to his house on several occasions and made banana pudding for him, from scratch, of course! I think he might have paid us a quarter each. That was a huge payment!! I remember clearly that we went to his house to make it at his request. But I also remember our mother sending us to Uncle Denny's house with the ingredients so that we could make the banana pudding for him. I think it must have been a favorite of his. Of course, he told us it was the best banana pudding he had ever eaten!!!

Uncle Dennie lived on Back Valley Road in Coalfield in a long, narrow house. wide, but not deep. At one time it was one house but apparently was walled off to become a duplex. When I was young Mr & Mrs Hobb Oaks lived in one end of the house and Uncle Dennie lived in the other end, the west end. Apparently Grandma McGlothin lived in the house at one time. Of course, she died a long time before I was born. I am not sure of this since it would have been before my memory.

Uncle Denny had three rooms. The living room was the front room of the house. The doorway to the kitchen was to the left of the living room and Uncle Dennie's bedroom was to the right off of the kitchen. A doorway in the kitchen's west wall led outside, where the toilet stood on the edge of the creek. The house was white and had a full length porch. It was on the front edge of the place where Uncle Lil and Aunt Merle lived. A driver had to pass Uncle Denny to the left, and then the Owens' road to the right going on up the hill.

Denny was a brother to Robert Harvey McGlothin (my grandfather) and a brother to Merle Owens, who lived behind Uncle Dennie on the hill.

I don't know who provided Uncle Denny's meals day by day. Did my mother? My aunt Madge? My grandma McGlothin? Aunt Ruth & Uncle Fred?

Uncle Denny's house consisted of a porch stretching from the west to the east with room for a rocking chair stretching from the south to the north.

The house was eventually torn down.

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.

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.
