Note: "Shadrack Brooks Hargis served in the Union Army during the Civil War at age 16. He was in the Battle of Shiloh in TN, and was wounded in the arm at the Battle of Kennesaw mountain in GA. Shadrach was quoted by family members as saying "That Old Jeff Davis is trying to split our union".
"Shadrack married Nancy Burns. Nancy was the daughter of Gregory Burns. Shadrack and Nancy lived in a log house between Red Boiling Springs Rd and Days Cross Rd in Macon Co, TN. He later moved into Layfayette, TN, the house he lived in was located on a hill in town on the Red Boiling Springs Rd. In Aug. 1920 Shadrack was hit and killed by a hit-and-run driver. His house was sold at auction and was said to be one of the finest in town. Grandma Steen (Eva Lillian Steen) has a copy of the auction advertisement that was in the Macon Co Newspaper"
"Shadrack gave each of his children a farm. The farm Grandma grow-up on is the one he gave to her family. He was a successful merchant and tobacco market buyer. He raised hogs and various crops on his farms. He also received a war pention. Grandma Steen said, she spent a good deal of time with her grandfather Shadrack."
" At Christmas time her grandfather Shadrack would give her family a Red Snapper fish. The grandchildren would be give a large candy stick."
"At Christman Grandma Steen and her sisters would each hang a stocking by the fire place in hope that Santa would leave some goodie in them. Santa would usually leave an orange, apple, banana and sometimes a small china doll in the stockings."
"Christmas day was spent with the family at home. Christmas dinner was Red Snapper, vegeables such as sweet potatoes, irish potatoes, green beans, corn bread and biscuits."
"Grandma's family did not put up a Christmas tree. The Christmas tree was a much later custom and was not used in the States until the turn of the century."
