The Baylor County Banner of 23 June 1911 had the announcement of the death of J.C. McKeehan who formerly lived in Jacksboro, and was well known, being a member of the firm of McKeehan Brothers, one of the strongest business firms of the Jacksboro in the 1880s. He left Jacksboro in 1887 and after several changes finally located in Seymour, where he resided until his death. He was an old Confederate noted for his daring achievements on the battlefield. He was a zealous Christian and a member of the Baptist church. He had for several years been a sufferer and almost an invalid, caused from the wound he received in the battle of Chickamauga. His death was not unexpected to his family or himself.
