ALSA B. MCCARTY

775. Alsa B. McCarty was born in South Carolina, in 1820 and died July 6, 1871 in Dale County, Alabama. He is buried in the McCarty Cemetery near Ozark, Alabama. There is some doubt about the time of his birth, but as he was of age when his grandfather, Nathan Boddie, died in 1841, he could not have been born after 1820. Since his older brother, William, was born in 1819, he could not have been born in that year. One of his sons gave Alsa's birth date as 1816. If he was born in 1816, he could not have been Mahala Boddie's son, but the Equity Court of Edgefield County, South Carolina, listed him as her son and heir. He was also guardian of his younger brothers and sisters in the settlement of the Nathan Boddie's estate in 1841. In the census of 1850 Alsa's age was given as 29; in 1860 it was given as 39. All of this would indicate that he was born in 1820.

Alsa was, perhaps, the most controversial and the least responsible of all the McCarty sons. He and his half brother, Walter, were quite often "in their cups," and both were great humorists. During these times Alsa was quite often a preacher and it is said he preached some good sermons that brought tears to his listener's eyes.

Alsa was very proud of his four beautiful daughters, Amanda, Elizabeth, Catherine, and Mary. All four of these girls were brought up in the traditions of the Old South. They were well-educated, and each had unique accomplishments of her own. Alsa took great pride in showing them off at dances and balls, especially Amanda, a small redhaired, vivacious dancer.

By profession or trade Alsa was a cabinet maker. When his second family moved to Texas about 1877, they brought with them some of his exquisite hand-made furniture. He also owned land, and in the 1870 census he is listed as a farmer.

He and his first wife, Isabella, married in Georgia, about 1838 when he was 18 and she was 16. She later divorced him, but at what date is not known. Tradition says they had nine children, but the names of only seven have been authenticated for this history. The eighth was a boy who evidently died in infancy, and the ninth was a girl who was burned to death when a baby. Isabella's surname is unknown. The 1850 census gives her age as 28, making her birth date 1822. She died in the spring after the birth of her daughter Elizabeth's first child, December 12, 1861. This, of course, would put her death in 1862. She died of cancer and was a bed patient many weeks before her death. Children: Amanda, Elizabeth, Catherine, Mary, Wilson, John (Bud), Elisha.

776. Amanda McCarty (775) was born March 6, 1840 in Georgia. She married her stepmother's brother, John Frank Riddick, probably in 1856 in Alabama, in either Dale or Pike County. She was away at school, and when her father sent John Frank to drive to the college and bring her home, they eloped. Amanda died June 15, 1912 and is buried in the old cemetery at Troy, Alabama in a plot with her daughters Van and Virginia and Van's husband.

From all accounts Amanda was a high spirited young woman, high strung, domineering, well educated, talented, and capable. One of her nieces has this to say of her: "She was a small, bird-like person with red hair and reddish-brown eyes. She had a fine mind; she was a school teacher and a fine pianist. She was always cool and poised, and she was always right. She knew best, and her sisters blindly took her word for everything.-----She could blister one with words.-----She had scores of friends, but she had that McCarty temper. She did not get all flustered and mad; she just stood there as cool as a summer breeze and told you off, her voice low but stinging."

Amanda was a proficient musician and taught piano and dancing for many years. Family tradition says she could play one tune with one hand, a second tune with the other hand, and whistle yet a third tune, all at the same time. Both of her daughters were also musicians. Virginia both taught and composed music for many years.

Though deeply in love with her husband John Frank, who was a captain in the Confederate Army and who was killed early in The War Between The States, Amanda married before 1881 to a John Schaeffer, one of her pupils in a private school. This marriage was an unhappy one and did not last. When Amanda died in 1912, she and her two daughters, both of whom had made unhappy marriages, were living together in Troy.

Amanda and John's children: John Frank Wallace, Vannecka, Virginia. (See No. 3 under Riddick for descendants.)

777. Elizabeth McHaley (Mahala) McCarty (775) also married her step-mother's brother, Elisha Riddick. She was born in South Carolina, September, 1841 and died February 2, 1921. She is buried in the old cemetery at Troy, Alabama. Elizabeth was probably born in Edgefield, South Carolina, while her parents where there for the settlement of the Nathan Boddie Estate, as her father, Alsa, was guardian for the McCarty children in this transaction.

Elisha was wounded in the lungs during The War Between The States and died "about two years after the war" of a hemorrhage of the lungs. He and Elizabeth had these children: Mary Louise (Mamie), John Frank. (See No. 4 under Riddick for descendants.)

778. About Catherine Withers McCarty (775) little is known except that her life was one of tragedy. She married twice, but nothing is known about the first marriage except that "It was a great and pitiful tragedy." This statement comes from a granddaughter who would reveal no more.

She later married William R. Respress, an Englishman who imbibed rather freely. He went to war, and at the close of that conflict he wrote Amanda, Catherine's sister, in an effort to find his family, Catherine and two daughters. Amanda wrote him that they were all dead. She defended herself later by saying, "He was not fit to be the father of those girls."

To make assurance doubly sure, Amanda then told Catherine that she had been notified that William Respress had been killed in the war. Though Catherine learned many years later of Amanda's duplicity, she never reproached her. Catherine, a fine seamstress, managed to keep her family together until both girls married. She lived with her daughter Ida Jane years before her death, August 31, 1883. She too, died of cancer. She is buried at Old Claybank Cemetery in Dale County, beside her mother.

Thinking that all of his family had died, William never returned to Alabama but went to Georgia. There he later married into a family of jug makers in a small place known as Jugtown. Here later, his older daughter, Ida, happened to find him some years after Catherine's death, and at last he learned the truth.

Catherine married William R. Respress December 24, 1850 in Troy, Alabama. She was born in 1842 in Georgia. He was born in 1830 in Coventry, England. Children: Ida Myrtle, Isabella Virginia.

779. Wilson McCarty (775) was the oldest son in Alsa's first family. He was born in 1844 in Alabama, according to the 1850 census. He was living with his father's second family in 1860 and also in 1865, according to the census. No other trace of Wilson has been found, though he probably came to Texas in 1877 with his father's second family.

780. Mary Louise McCarty (775) was born April 11, 1846 in Columbus, Georgia and died November 17, 1911. She is buried near Slocum, Alabama. (The Welch family Bible gives Mary's birthdate as 1849, but her age is given in the 1850 census as four years.) She married Moses Welch December 3, 1862 in Troy, Alabama. He was born in Opelika, Alabama, and died July 30, 1899 and is buried at Brundidge, Alabama.

Moses and Mary came to Texas around 1875 as their youngest child, Annie Bell, was born at Chapel Hill, Texas, in 1876. Children: Elisha Boyd, Minnie Lee, William Dailey, Annie Bell.

781. Elisha McCarty (775) was probably the youngest son of Alsa and Isabella. His birthdate and death date are both unknown, though he probably died between 1866 and 1870. He was living with Alsa's second family in 1860 and in 1866.

782. John (Bud) McCarty (775) second son of Alsa and Isabella, was born in 1848 in Dale County, Alabama, and died of "black-tongue fever" (diphtheria) before 1860. He is probably buried in the Old Claybank Cemetery, in Dale County, as the earliest recorded burial in the McCarty Cemetery is 1871.

783. Ida Myrtle Respress (778) was born May 8, 1862 at Troy, Alabama. She married John S. Andrews May 16, 1877 and died June 1, 1950. He was born in 1858 in Dale County, Alabama, and died in 1927 and is buried in Old Claybank Cemetery in Dale County.

Ida Myrtle had a long life and a long memory and delighted in telling her grandchildren and nieces and nephews of the old days. As her mother, Catherine McCarty and her two daughters, had lived in Alsa's house during the war years and for some years afterward, Ida Myrtle had wide knowledge of McCarty history and tradition, some of which has gone into this book. Children: Ruby Love, Maurice M., Raymond Withers, Alton McDonald, John Jeter, Jewel Grace, Alex Rufus, Angus Glenn.

784. Isabella Virginia Respress (778) was born September 20, 1864 in Troy, Alabama and died September 25, 1895. She is buried at Hilliards' Cross Roads, just outside Brundidge, Alabama. She married John Hamp Grace March 6, 1884 at Troy, Alabama. He was born November 24, 1852 in Unadillo, Georgia, and died September 12, 1930. He is buried at Brundidge. Children: Herbert Tolliver, Lily Myrtle, Eva Maude, Ida Virginia, Virgil T.

785. Elisha Boyd Welch (779) vas born February 18, 1874 in Troy, Alabama. He married first, Lillie Walsh about whom nothing is known.

Elisha died March 19, 1941 and is buried near Slocumb, Alabama.

Elisha was well known for his "McCarty humor," for he was quite the practical joker. He was a successful merchant for many years. He had a stroke and was ill for some time before his death. Martha lives alone in their old home and manages to keep busy. She was good enough to collect her family history for this book. Children: Zenobia Aurora, Evelyn Grace, Alva May, Vivian Chisholm.
