Obituary
H. H. HAYNES    -CONTRIBUTED-

H. H. HAYNES was born near Garfield, (Breckinridge County), Ky. on February 
15, 1876, and died July 4, 1960 in his 85th year.  He was the fifth of ten 
children of Dudley and Lucy McCOY HAYNES.  One sister and one brother are 
living, Mrs. W. H. LeGRAND and S. M. HAYNES of Hardinsburg, Ky.

He remained with his parents until 21 years of age, and then went to 
Georgetown, Williamson County, Texas, joining an older brother, J. Tom HAYNES.  
While there he married Miss Sina CORDER, a sister of his brother's wife.  She 
was a school teacher, and a talented artist.  To this union were born seven 
children.  Five survive:
one daughter:
Lucy LUTTREL, Electra, Texas
four sons:
Raymond HAYNES, Electra, Texas
Elwood HAYNES, Electra, Texas
Paul D. HAYNES, Electra, Texas
Cecil HAYNES, Corpus Christa, Texas

After the death of her mother and her husband, Lucy was a constant attendant, 
a dutiful daughter to the end.  He established himself as an outstanding, 
influential citizen and businessman.  He was one of the most extensive land  
owners and farmers in his county, had planted as much as 1,000 acres of cotton 
in one year.  He was a member of the Church of Christ, a 33 degree Mason.  He 
was elected County Commissioner in 1918, served continiously until death, a 
period of 42 years, another record for his county.  A stalwark physic, a 
towering 6 foot 6 inches tall, he had 335 pounds.  A big man, a big farmer 
with a big heart, and a distinctive vision of what his country could and would 
do with the blending of brains and brawn.

Please Note:
There was more to this newspaper article of the death of Henry H. HAYNES, but 
I did not copy it off the microfilm.  I gleamed only the genealogical 
information out of his obituary.
