Alvis Elmer & Juliette Witty are buried here.

Spring Comes to Rose Hill Cemetery

What is Alvis Witty's Connection to Panama?

Alvis Elmer Witty and his wife Juliette Hutson rest in Rose Hill Cemetery. They are buried in the Hutson - Redding plot in the Cabiness Ridge Section.

Alvis Elmer Witty

-------------
Juliette Hutson Witty
June 6, 1884
Nov 12, 1977
Alvis Witty is a bit of an enigma. I can find bits of information about him, but I cannot yet connect much of it.

Alvis was the son of James S. and Isabella Witty. According to census records, Alvis was born in Florida. He is listed with his parents and sister Cora in the 1900 Orange County, Florida US Federal census. His father James was a farmer born in North Carolina. Supposedly, James's parents were born in North Carolina as well. Isabella (Alvis's mother) was born in Tennessee. Her parents were supposedly born in South Carolina.

Alvis married Juliette Hutson, daughter of Moses M. Hutson and Effa Wickliffe, 18 August 1908 at the Vineville Baptist Church in Bibb County, Georgia.

The first time I see Alvis mentioned in connection with the United States territory Canal Zone in Panama was on a New York passenger list dated 26 July 1908 (less than one month before his marriage). There were many subsequent trips made to the Canal Zone by Alvis, his wife Juliette, his mother Isabella, and his mother-in-law Effa. Dates ranged from 1908 to 1913.

I found a few more items regarding Alvis and the Canal Zone. All were found in the Macon Weekly Telegraph newspaper in the "Society" column.

Macon Weekly Telegraph 9 Aug 1908

Mrs. Effa Wickliffe Hutson announces the engagement of her daughter, Juliette, to Mr. Alvis Elmer Witty, of Gorgona, Canal Zone, U.S.A. The wedding to take place at an early date. No cards.

Indeed, the wedding was soon, approximately 10 days later:

Macon Weekly Telegraph 19 Aug 1908

Hutson-Witty -- Pretty Afternoon Wedding Yesterday.
An interesting event of Tuesday, August 18, to many friends of the young couple, was the marriage of Miss Juliette Hutson and Mr. A. E. Witty, of Gorgona, Canal Zone.

It was celebrated at a beautiful home wedding at the residence of the bride's mother, Mrs. Effie Wickliffe Hutson, in Vineville, at 4:30 o'clock, those witnessing it being limited to the family and closest friends...

...Immediately after the ceremony an informal reception was held, the bride and groom leaving directly to catch the northbound train for New York.

They will only be there for a short while and sail on the 22nd for Gorgona.

The congratulations and best wishes of many friends attend them to their distant home, where Mrs. Witty will be a charming addition to the circle of young matrons from the States who are already there.

Macon Weekly Telegraph 12 Feb 1910

Mrs. Effa W. Hutson left yesterday for New Orleans and from there she sails for Panama, to visit Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Witte, at Gorgona, Canal Zone, and will probably spend several months with them. Mrs. Witte, as Miss Juliette Hutson before her marriage, was one of Vineville's loveliest and most popular girls, who went to Panama immediately after her marriage a year or two ago, and they have resided there, Mr. Witte having a government position.

By 1918, Alvis registered for the draft (and claimed his residence to be) in Glynn County, Georgia. His occupation was listed as manager of a mill supply company. I have not, however, found Alvis and Juliette in the 1920 US census.

Alvis can be found in the 1930 Oklahoma City, Oklahoma US Federal census. He and Juliette are also listed in the Oklahoma City directories from 1936 - 1939. Alvis's occupation is clerk for a U. S. Supply Co. By this time, it appears, Alvis and Juliette have two daughters.

That's about it. Juliette is listed in Georgia Deaths, 1919-98. She died in Bibb County, Georgia at the age of 93.

Researching Alvis and Juliette created a couple of big questions for me. How in the world did they meet? And what kind of government job did Alvis have in the Canal Zone?

If you have any more information regarding Alvis and Juliette Hutson Witty, please comment.

Monday Movie: Canning Family Plot

Canning Family Plot
Rose Hill Cemetery
Macon, Bibb County, Georgia

Victor E. Armstrong Fought Fires

Victor E. Armstrong
Apr 29, 1873
Feb 9, 1961
Mr. Armstrong and his wife rest in Rose Hill Cemetery. They share a plot in the Cabiness Ridge section with the Strozier family.

Victor Emanuel Armstrong was born in Alabama. He, his parents, and his siblings were living in Henry County, Alabama in June 1880.

Victor married Alma Martha between 1901 and 1903. She was born 28 July 1884 in Georgia, and she passed away 12 December 1971. She lies next to her husband in Rose Hill.

In April 1910, Victor and family were living on Oak Street in Macon, Bibb County, Georgia. His occupation was a fireman. At the time, Alma claimed to have three children with two living: Vashti and Marion F.

Between 1919 and 1920, Victor found himself in a somewhat controversial and likely awkward situation. The current fire chief was being ousted due to "inefficiency," and Victor was named his replacement. The saga was covered extensively in the local Macon Weekly Telegraph. Here is one such article dated 3 June 1919:

PLAN TO OUST FIRE CHIEF ON CHARGE OF INEFFICIENCY

Civil Service Commission Will Appoint Victor E. Armstrong to Succeed Monroe Jones at Meeting Today, Reports Say.

The Civil Service Commission, it was stated last night, will meet today and appoint Capt. Victor Armstrong as chief of the Macon fire department in place of the present chief, Monroe Jones, whom the commission will order for trial on the charge of inefficiency. Captain Armstrong is now senior captain of the department and second assistant chief.

It is understood the change in chiefs will take place the next few days, following the proposed action of the commission today.

It is alleged by those in close touch with the fire department situation that Chief Jones admitted to the commission that he has failed to respond to the alarm at least sixty fire calls during the last year; that he does not sleep at the department station and continues to have his own apartment somewhere in the neighborhood.

Chief Jones is probably senior to all the fire department chiefs in the South, having been chief of the old volunteer department before the present city organization and elected to the present place in 1886. He has been at the head of the department continually since that time, with the exception of the two years administration of the Wallace Miller city council, when A. L. Miller, now a member if the Civil Service Commission, was chief.

Shortly after the organization of the first Civil Service Commission, which was composed ot Curran R. Ellis, R. C. Haglehurst and Frank West, L. A. Miller was supplanted by Monroe Jones.

Victor E. Armstrong, known in fire department circles as "Vic" Armstrong, is at present stationed at No. 2 enginehouse near Wesleyan College on Washington avenue. He is the senior captain of the department and has been acting first assistant chief of the department.

The proposed new chief is a native of Abbeville, Ala., and came to Macon in 1898. He has been a member of the Macon fire department since 1900 and during the long term of service has never lost even a part of a day because of suspension or had a mark against his record. He is now enjoying a vacation of fifteen days, which began May 20.

In January 1920, Victor and family had moved to Lawton Avenue in Macon, and Victor was still the Fire Department Chief. (His World War I draft registration card from 1918 gave the specific address of 117 Lawton Avenue.) Another son had arrived about 1917. His name was Robert.

It appears Victor left the fire department sometime before 1930. At that time, his occupation was Municipal Court Deputy Sheriff. Victor and his family were still in Macon. This time they had moved to College Street.

Victor died in Bibb County, Georgia.

Wordless Wednesday: Clutching a Dove & Standing Tall

Samuel Taylor Adamson, Civil War POW

Samuel Taylor Adamson
Nov 27, 1847
June 18, 1925
FATHER
Samuel rests in Rose Hill Cemetery.

Though not mentioned on his ledger gravestone, Samuel was a soldier in the Confederate States Army during the Civil War. He enlisted June 1864 from Jonesboro, Georgia as a private in Company E, 30th Georgia Infantry Regiment. One month into his service, Samuel was captured by the Union Army near Atlanta, GA and sent to Camp Douglas, Illinois. He was a prisoner for almost a year, released June 1865.

Census records suggest Samuel Adamson was born in Georgia. In 1870, he is found living in Clayton County, Georgia with his mother Elizabeth and siblings Franklin, Ella, and Julia A. At that time, Samuel was a Railroad Laborer.

Samuel married his wife, Mary Elizabeth Bright, 18 December 1872 in Bibb County, Georgia. They had four children: Edward Alexander, Franklin Green, Ogean Tolitha, and Luther Ennis.

Samuel spent the rest of his life in Bibb County. He was often working on the railroad, and his occupations often had to do with carpentry (carpenter, foreman Central shops, mechanic, railroad cabinet maker, and house carpenter).

Do you have any information to share about Samuel Taylor Adamson? Please comment.

The Adamson Family Plot

Below is a video of the Adamson family plot, located in the Cabiness Ridge section of Rose Hill Cemetery. It is next to a stone wall. Buried in this plot are Ogean Tolitha Adamson, Samuel Taylor Adamson, Mary Elizabeth Bright Adamson, Franklin Green Adamson, Luther Ennis Adamson, Lynwood Taylor Adamson, Sarah Beatrice Smith Adamson, and Edward Alexander Adamson.

Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Bright Adamson, Mother

Mary Elizabeth Bright
Wife of S. T. Adamson

Mother
Mrs. Adamson rests in Rose Hill Cemetery.

Mary Elizabeth Bright married Samuel Taylor Adamson 18 December 1872 in Bibb County, Georgia. They had four children: Edward Alexander (1874-1944), Franklin Green (1875-1922), Ogean Tolitha (1879-1958), and Luther Ennis (1880-1881). All are buried in the same plot in Rose Hill.

In June 1880, the census taker visited Mary and her husband in Clayton County, Georgia. Three of her children were listed. Mary was less than two weeks away from giving birth to her fourth child, Luther Ennis.

The 1897 Macon, GA City Directory has Mary and her husband residing at 1998 3d Street.

In 1900, Mary and her husband are in Bibb County, Georgia with two of their children.

In 1910, Mary and her husband are in Macon, GA. Two of their children are still listed with them.

In 1920, Mary and her husband are still in Macon. This time, only one child, Ogean, is listed with them. An addition (or maybe just a visitor) to the household is Mary's brother, Green L. Bright. Green was a retired merchant.

Mary's husband Samuel died in 1925. Therefore, Mary had to file the proper paperwork to have his Civil War pension delivered to her. (Samuel was a member of Company E, 30th GA Volunteer Infantry.) The required proof of marriage Mary supplied was sufficient, and her application was approved.

One of the questions Mary had to answer on her Confederate Widows' Pension Application pertained to how long she had been a resident of the state of Georgia. Interestingly, her answer was "since age 4 or 5." Even though all the census records state Mary was born in Georgia, this may not be the case.

In 1930, a widowed Mary is a head of household in Macon. Still with her is daughter Ogean. Mary died 30 May 1931 in Bibb County, Georgia.

Lynwood Taylor, Son of E. A. & Beatrice Adamson

WAITING
Lynwood Taylor
Son of
E. A. & Beatrice Adamson
Born Feb 8, 1897
Died July 26, 1901
Budded on earth to bloom in Heaven.
4 year old Lynwood was laid to rest in Rose Hill Cemetery. It's difficult to read, but at the head of his ledger gravestone is the word WAITING.


Lynwood was the son of Edward Alexander Adamson and Sarah Beatrice Smith. His middle name is the same of that of his grandfather's, Samuel Taylor Adamson.

Lynwood can be found in one record - the 1900 US Federal Census. He is living with his parents in Bibb County, Georgia. Just over a year later, little Lynwood would be lost.

Luther Ennis, Infant Son of S. T. & M. E. Adamson

Luther Ennis
Infant Son of
S. T. & M. E. Adamson
Born June 15, 1880
Died Aug 23, 1881
Our chain on earth is broken
Another link in Heaven
Luther Ennis Adamson rests in Rose Hill Cemetery.

He was the son of Samuel Taylor Adamson and Mary Elizabeth Bright. Mary was less than two weeks away from giving birth to Luther when the 1880 census taker visited her family. Without this ledger gravestone, we may never have known Luther existed.

BLE Member Franklin Green Adamson

Franklin Green Adamson
BLE
Sept 4, 1875
May 1, 1922
He Loved To Make Others Happy
Frank is at rest in Rose Hill Cemetery.

He was a son of Samuel Taylor Adamson and Mary Elizabeth Bright, also buried in Rose Hill. Frank did marry and had at least one son.

In 1880, Frank and his parents were living in Clayton County, Georgia. Siblings included older brother Edward and younger sister Talitha.

Frank was a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. It was "the senior national labor organization in the United States, and also North America's oldest rail labor union." And though Frank indeed became a railroad engineer, he appears to have worked on just about every aspect of a railcar. He was probably brought into the business by his father and older brother.

In 1894, 18 year old Frank took a fishing trip with his shop buddies to Florida. I can only imagine what that must've been like. Especially since Frank's father and older brother are not mentioned as members of the party. As told in the local newspaper:

28 April 1894
Macon Weekly Telegraph

MACONITES IN LUCK
Employe[e]s of the Georgia Southern on a Fishing Frolic

Putnam Hall, Fla, April 27 -- (Special) -- A party of twelve employe[e]s of the Georgia Southern and Florida railroad shops at Macon have just returned from an enjoyable outing at Putnam Hall, Fla, where they have spent three days. They took back with them 500 pounds of fish, and are highly elated with their success. The party consisted of Messrs. J. T. Willis, W. H. Evans, B. F. Willis, J. T. Stone, J. B. Ray, A. O. Blanks, J. E. Shine, J. R. Herrington, S. S. Youmans, Frank Adamson, W. C. Hobbs and Will Smith.

Frank, his father, and his older brother are found in the 1897 Macon, GA city directory. Frank is living at 1998 Third Street with his parents. His occupation was painter G. S. & F. Shops.

In 1900, Frank was with his parents in Macon. His occupation was Locomotive Fireman.

In September 1919, Frank registered for the draft in Lowndes County, Georgia. His address was Valdosta, GA, and his occupation was listed as RR Engineer for the G S & F Ry at Valdosta. Frank was married, and he was described as short, with brown eyes and light brown hair.

Franklin G. Adamson died in Lowndes County, Georgia 1 May 1922. He was only 46 when he died. I wonder what caused his death at such a young age. For some reason, I get the feeling Frank was a happy man who was fun to be around.

Edward Alexander Adamson Got a Letter From Hell

Edward Alexander Adamson
March 30, 1874
Aug 25, 1944
"Loving Father, Devoted Husband,
Faithful Friend."
Mr. Adamson rests in Rose Hill Cemetery.

He was a son of Samuel Taylor Adamson and Mary Elizabeth Bright, also buried in Rose Hill. Edward married Sarah Beatrice Smith in 1896, and they had at least two children: Lynwood Taylor and Cecil F.

Edward and his parents are living in Clayton County, Georgia in 1880.

Edward was a railroad man, possibly brought in by his father. In 1897, he and his wife are listed in the Macon, GA 1897 City Directory. Edward was a carpenter at the Central [RR] Shops, and his residence was 2001 Third Street, just a few doors down from his parents.

In 1900, Edward and his wife are in Macon. Edward's occupation was machinist. Sarah's mother was listed with them.

In 1920, Edward and Sarah are again in Macon. Edward's occupation was Railroad Shop Foreman.

In 1930, Edward and Sarah can be found living on State Street East in Savannah, Chatham County, Georgia. Edward's occupation was Steam Railroad Car-Builder.

Backtracking a bit, Edward A. Adamson received an interesting letter in 1914. Interesting enough to make the local paper:

26 April 1914
Macon Weekly Telegraph

LETTER FROM HELL TO EDWARD A. ADAMSON

Mysterious Document Smacks of Advertising and a Clever Conception.

May not believe it, but nevertheless, it is a fact that E. A. Adamson, car foreman of the Central shops, is in receipt of a letter direct from Hell, but it is a postoffice bearing the "euphonius" name, located somewhere in Norway, Sweden. While the document is in the form of advertising, it is clever, and the letter in full follows:

(Personal)
Hell, Norway, March 28, 1914
E. A. Adamson, Car Foreman
Central of Georgia Railway
Macon, Ga
Dear Sir:
I am in Hell.

And strangely enough, I like it.

You may not be able to find this place of the map, because it is a very small town in the northern part of Norway.

It isn't at all like the place you think it is. The temperature is delightful; the people here are kind and gracious; and there is no "brimstone" in the air.

And so here I am in Hell -- because they are building railroads up here in Norway and you know, it's my business to give railroad men a lift.

I make "good jacks." My jacks have speed and safety. That is how I lift railroad men out of their jack troubles.

Norton jacks hold the record for strength and reliability.

We have fifty-ton self-lowering jacks for loaded car and locomotive work, that will lift and last until this place Hell freezes over, and they they will keep on lifting, because there is nothing inside them to freeze.

You probably never knew another man who went to Hell of his own accord.

And so while I am in Hell, it is only for a short time. Soon I'll be back -- and if you would like a photo-postal of this remote place, just address me as below,
Yours truly,
Harry A. Norton,
286 Congress St., Boston, Mass

Do you have anything to add about Mr. Edward Alexander Adamson?

The Humble Dead in Rose Hill Cemetery

The Macon Telegraph and Messenger
15 February 1882

The Humble Dead in Rose Hill Cemetery

"On fame's eternal camping ground,
The silent tents are spread,
While glory guards with solemn round
The bivouac of the dead."

No costly marble marks the spot of the silent sleepers. There has been no portraiture of their death-bed scenes. No long extended notices were published announcing their decease. But sadly and silently they were borne away, and soon the brown autumn leave covered the new made graves. The birds sang their plaintive songs amid the overhanging boughs. The winds sighed a sad requiem and all was soon hushed into deep forgetfulness. Their stations in life were humble, yet many, very many of them did their parts nobly, heroically in life, were kind fathers, devoted wives, noble sons, loving sisters, the toiling mechanic, the just merchant, the private soldier each filled his earthly mission and have gone to their long homes. Let us not forget the humble sleepers in Rose Hill. -- PAUL BLUNT

Some History of Rose Hill

Rose Hill Cemetery is located on Riverside Drive in Macon, Bibb County, Georgia. It is an example of a 19th century rural cemetery park, and it is on the National Register of Historic Places.

The main man behind Rose Hill Cemetery was Simri Rose. He was the sixth son of Levi and Mary Rose. He was born in Connecticut and migrated to Georgia about 1818. He died 3 April 1869.

Simri Rose selected and laid out Rose Hill Cemetery. He was also on the first cemetery committee.

Lots in the Rose Hill Cemetery went on sale about May 1840. They were no smaller than 20 square feet and no larger than 40 square feet. Prices ranged from $5 - $30. Lots were auctioned at public sale from time to time, and free lots could also be given to those who improved them according to instructions by the cemetery committee.

At that early time, no tombs were allowed. All interments had to be in underground vaults or coffins. No lot was to be cleared of forest growth, except with permission of the committee.

By 1841, Simri Rose had divided the 50 acre site into five distinct sections: Central Avenue District, Eglantine Square, Forest Hill, Magnolia Ridge, and Holly Ridge.

Originally, each of the sections was separated by thick woodland. But, as the city of Macon grew, so did the cemetery. In 1850, a sixth section, Pine Ridge, was added. Furthermore, in 1856 and 1857, Hawthorne Ridge, Honeysuckle Ridge, and Ivy Ridge was added.

In 1848, immediately west of Rose Hill, Simri planned Oak Ridge Cemetery. This was to be for slaves.

In 1851, it became necessary to lock the entrance gate to Rose Hill to prevent livestock from entering.

In 1859, the Macon City Council commented, "Our cemetery has most justly become a special object of interest and pride to our citizens, and the attraction of many who reside far beyond our limits, many of whom are securing family burial places in it, and many during the last year have been brought from great distances to be deposited in its bosom as their last mortal resting place."

In 1862, the cemetery charter was altered to allow smaller plot sizes. The new maximum size was 30 X 25 feet, and fractional lots were permitted. No longer was a free lot able to be obtained.

Union troops during the Civil War did some damage to the cemetery. Fences, trees, and shrubs were cut down. Soldiers bathed in the lakes, and several crystaline rocks were stolen.

At the end of the war 27,000 square feet was set aside for more than 600 Confederate soldiers. It was the flank of a hill sloping toward the Ocmulgee River, and it was named Soldiers Square.

In 1870, a subdivision was sold to the Beth Israel Congregation and given the name William Wolff Cemetery. Some time later, Cabiness Ridge was established.

In the late 1890s, the Roman Catholic Church acquired what was named St. Joseph Cemetery.

By 1959, the following subdivisions had been added: The Terraces, Lakeside Terrace, Triangle Square, and Carnation Ridge.
