St. Jo Tribune
Obituary: James Madison McNabb.

James Madison McNabb within a few days of 86 years of age died at the family 
home six miles west of Saint Jo on Tuesday afternoon by Rev. Childress of 
Bonita. Deceased being an old settler and widely and favorably known the 
funeral was largely attended, many friends and acquaintances coming from a 
distance. The floral offerings were superb. He is survived by his wife Eliza 
Ann Chapman McNabb, three sons and four daughters as follows: A. L. and J. P. 
of Carnegie, Oklahoma; E. L. McNabb, Alma, Oklahoma; Mrs Jennie Goodpasture, 
Nacona, Texas; Mrs. Emma Carpenter, Dallas; Mrs. Rose Anderson, Hugo, Oklahoma 
all of whom were present at the funeral. James Madison McNabb was born February 
26, 1841 and was married 66 years ago to the woman who now survives him. Seven 
children were born to them and all are still living and were at the funeral. A 
curious fact about the family is that the whole family was never together at 
one time until last Wednesday when there called together by Mr. McNabb's last 
illness. The oldest child married and left the family circle before the 
youngest was born, and while they all seen each other often. It just never 
happened that they were all at the same place at the same time until the date 
above mentioned. The family are old settlers having lived on the present home 
place for more than forty years. St. Jo Tribune. St. Jo, Texas.
