Sarah Caroline Magee, known as Callie Terry in later life, married Bill Lester on March 6, 1889. The first child born to this union died as an infant. Her children were Katie Caroline (Kate) Lester, Nellie Blie (Nell) Lester and Earl Atmar Lester. After Bill's death Callie was married to Joseph Rainey Terry on June 17, 1897 by J. F. Johnson, Minister of the Gospel. A. H. Kenley, County Clerk issued the license and also filed them. To this union was born Albert Sullivan on March 17, 1898, Oda Mae on April 11, 1900, Earnest Wright on July 5, 1902, Vada on December 22, 1904, William Rainey January 5, 1909 and Winnie Lee on December 16, 1913. All of which to my knowledge were born in Magee Bend, Trinity County Texas except Winnie Lee who was born in Groveton. Joseph Rainey Terry was the son of Stanford Terry and Mary Elizabeth Sullivan Terry.[1] Born after the Civil War, around 1865, Stanford and his wife Mary Elizabeth left their home near Baton Rouge, La. Because of the war's destruction they started west settling in Trinity County. While living in the Crecy Community, Uncle Jeff Kee came by our home selling Bibles. He was traveling by horse and buggy. Joseph Rainey, known as Joe, bought each of his children a New Testament and he also bought a Family bible at that time. The Family Bible and some of the New Testaments are still in the family. Joe Terry planted some of the Elm Trees on the Trinity Court House Lawn and on west 3rd street. Before the first telephones were installed in Groveton, Joe Terry brought the first telephone poles into Groveton. Joe's grandmother [2] Mary Ann Elizabeth Sullivan Terry assisted in the early organization of some of the early Baptist Churches. His father was Stanford Terry. [3] Joe's brothers were Warrne, Marshall, Frank, Albert, Joseph Rainey, Wright and William. His sisters were Mattie (Mrs. Richard Heath) and Mary Ann Eugenna (Mrs. Justus Hurd Tull). Sarah Caroline Terry's sisters were Mollie (Mrs. Mark Browder), Tisshie (Mrs. Sug Bennett) and Tallie (Mrs. Will Kendrick). Her brothers were Walter N., Willie and Evan Jasper(sic) Jr. Those registering were Bill and Lee Terry, Clayton Terry, David W. Terry, Layneigha Chapman, Vada Chapman, Lanier and Lyndel Gibson, Earl Lester, Nina Collins, Bill and Diane Terry, B. J. and Jeffery Terry, Jimmy Taylor, Marilyn Taylor, Barbara Glaze, Michelle Glaze, Lonnie and Winnie Kendrick, Jana Plocheck, Peggy and Cortney Terry, Gerald and Linda Terry, Louise and Bill Terry, Mr. and Ms. Bob Taylor, Clifton and Vernice Parrott, Jack and Willie Fay Williams, Renita Gibson, Wade Ray, Marcia Gibson, Sallie Westover, Doxie Mills, David E. Lester, Douglass Terry, Ronnie and Kay Price and daughter and Terry and Gay Kendrick and children. Layneigha Chapman [4]
