Family History written
by Edwina Thomas in 1961 & added to in 1971 by Quata DeWitt
Richbourg Conaway (Granddaughter of Flood & Mollie):
FLOOD MCGRUE RICHBOURG's
birthplace is listed as Atalla Co., Mississippi; however, the way his
family moved around, it could have been one of several counties in
Mississippi.
His children all
tell of his service in the Confederate Army; how he was shot
twice in the right leg, during a battle in Georgia. Bleeding
profusely, he crawled off the battlefield to a nearby creek
and splashed water on his face and wounds. He
claims this saved his life.
This story
coincides with the one recorded in his war
records in the National Archives in Washington, D.
C. These records state that he was wounded severely in an
engagement near Peach Tree Creek, Georgia, July 20, 1864. He
was a patient at Ocmulgee Hospital, Macon, Georgia.
His marriage to Mary
Hudson in January 1869, seemed doomed to tragedy after the birth of their
son, James M. in October of that same year. Mary died five months
later.
In 1870 we
find the widower and infant son living in
Guadaloupe County, Texas. He had packed up and left Mississippi, either to
go with his parents or to join them in Texas.
At the time FLOOD came
to Texas, a pretty blue-eyed young lady, MARY ELIZABETH YARBROUGH
was staying with the Anderson Berry family in Guadaloupe County,
Texas. One day while horse back riding she chanced
to meet a tall black-haired handsome stranger, who
came to her rescue, as she was trying to cross Blanco
River. The water was unusually deep from recent rains and the
horse became frightened and refused to
cross. FLOOD RICHBOURG rode up to rescue the girl.
(Could this have been the horse he named for Robert E. Lee?)
So FLOOD and MARY ELIZABETH YARBROUGH or MOLLIE as she was called by
the family, met and on August 27, 1870, were married in Guadaloupe County.
MOLLIE and her younger
brother, William, were born in Rome, Georgia. The family moved to Texas
when she was a little girl, and there her brother Jack was born. Her
mother is said to have died when MOLLIE was only 4 or 5 years old.
Nothing is known of the heirloom jewelry, which was supposed to have been
left MOLLIE by her mother.
The young couple
lived in and farmed in Kyle, Hays Co., Texas, where
their 1st 2 children were born. They moved to
Carlton, Hamilton, Co., Texas in the fall of 1874, here
FLOOD homesteaded some land. In some way, the land was taken from him,
so in the dead of the night, the neighbors helped them to move
his personal property off the land so he would not be cheated out of that
too. They took his split rails to a Mr. Parson Hicks,
where they were kept until Flood was ready for them at his new
location in Erath Co.
He became
a prosperous farmer, a deacon in the Baptist
church, and an active Mason, being a Worshipful Master when he
died.
During their last
years FLOOD and MOLLIE lived in Carlton, Texas.
About 1911, FLOOD bought a
Buick touring car. This was the first car in Carlton except
for a cog driven car owned by the doctor.
FLOOD had always
been head of the house and some of the things
MOLLIE had desired were not thought to be necessary by
FLOOD who was rather conservative. One of MOLLIE's desires had
been to have a new home built on a lot they owned
across the street from the old home. Soon after FLOOD's death
MOLLIE built herself a new home on that lot. Her daughter, Ludie,
and family moved in with her and resided there as long as she lived.
One granddaughter describes
her grandmother as a little ball of fire. She told this story to verify
the statement. FLOOD had always loved a beautiful blooming willow
tree that was near the windmill in the back yard. MOLLIE
wanted the tree down because it obstructed her view across the back
patch to a small ravine. FLOOD would never allow the
tree to be cut, but soon after he died MOLLIE had the tree cut.
After MOLLIE's death,
the daughter who inherited the home, sold it to a Hico man,
Grady Hooper. The house was moved to Hico, added to and
redone, and at this writing in 1971, is still a very nice home.
FLOOD's first
son James was a victim of epilepsy and was necessarily placed in a
special institution for his illness.

The Richbourg Family Gather for Reunion
The descendants of FLOOD
M. and MARY ELIZABETH RICHBOURG early pioneer
family of Hamilton and Erath counties, held a
reunion Saturday, April 26 at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John E.
Harrison on Cedar Creek Lake. Second, third, fourth and
fifth generations were in attendance. Thirty-four of the 56 present
were direct descendants of this early family. The majority
were from the Metroplex area and Northwest Texas. Others
came from New York and New Mexico. Attending from Hico
was Mrs. Velma Everett, wife of the late Sim Everett.
Mrs. Quata
Conaway, Mrs. Hansle Lee Harrison and F. M. Richbourg, also of
Cedar Creek Lake, are children of the late Mr. and Mrs. C. D.
Richbourg who resided at the lake before their recent
deaths. The C. D. Richbourgs were former residents of
Hico and Carlton.

Death of F. M. RICHBOURG.
(From the newspaper for Carlton, Hamilton Co., Texas,
Friday, Aug. ?, 1913)[very dim copy.]
Wednesday afternoon at
exactly ten minutes past one o'clock, the Great God of the universe, sent his
Death Angle to call from our midst our beloved brother and neighbor Uncle
FLOOD RICHBOURG. Uncle FLOOD has not been
well for some time and recently visited the Clearance resort
thinking possibly the water there would be of benefit to him,
however, in this he was disappointed and returned home and was
confined to his room four weeks prior to his death.
No one has ever
lived in our midst that could claim more substantial friends than
Uncle FLOOD. Everyone loved him. In the death of
this good brother, the church has lost one of its ablest
members, he being a devout Christian and Deacon for over 30
years. The community has lost one of the most
charitable agents he being ever ready to administer to the wants of
anyone who might need his service.
Mr. RICHBOURG was born in
Attala County, Mississippi, May 18, 1842. He was married
to Miss May C. Hudson who died a year or two. To this union one
child was born, James M. who died a few years ago. In 1868 he came
to Texas and settled in Guadalupe County, was married to Miss MOLLIE
E. YARBROUGH in 1870, who still lives. To this union eleven children have
been born. Eight children are still living.
Mrs. S. B. Everett,
Carlton, J. W. Richbourg, Joseph B. Richbourg, Spur,
Mrs. T. H. Hodges, Waldrop, Mrs. Joe L. Lary, Hamilton,
Mrs. B. G. Thomas, Carlton, Clint D.
Richbourg, Hamilton, and Mrs. W. C. Pratt, Weinert. Bro. RICHBOURG moved
to Carlton in 1880 and since that time has been an ardent worker for all that
was for the best interest of our community. His life is an open book
and to study it would do ones very soul good. He was a
kind and loving husband, and tender father, a charitable neighbor,
and at all times since his conversion years ago a true Christian
gentleman. A pleasing peculiarity is of the sons and
sons-in-law, daughters and daughters in law, are all Christian
men and women, and every grandchild that had reached the years of
accountability are followers of the same God that is so good to all
of us.
Words are
inadequate to express the many good things we would say of
this goof man. In all the seventy-one years of his life he had never
had occasion to cause pain and among his fellow man. He has
repeatedly said he has never had occasion to have trouble with any man.
We all miss him; he has lived
among us so long that without him our little town and community will
be for a long time to come. Although Uncle FLOOD
will never again be seen in our midst ever willing to advise us of what be
best yet his life will ever remind us that it is not all of life to live
nor all of death to die. The influence of his noble life will be
living in the lives of others long after his mortal body shall have returned to
earth from which it came.
The remains were
conducted to the Baptist Church Thursday afternoon at 5
o'clock where an impressive ceremony was held by the Masonic
Fraternity assisted by his pastor, W. J. Hicks, and his former
paster, W. J. Briscoe, after which a large concourse of friends winded
their way to the silent city beneath the hill, and amid a multitude of
sorrowing friends and relatives all that was mortal of
Uncle FLOOD was laid to rest to await
the resurrection morn.
In extending our sympathies to the grief
stricken wife and mournful relatives and
family the beautiful life had
lived assurance that if he
but this
life "In that
land of the rising sun."

In Memory of Grandma RICHBOURG
(From the Newspaper for Carlton, Hamilton, Texas, Jan. 3, 1930)
In memory of Mrs. MARY E.
YARBROUGH RICHBOURG, widow of the late F. M. RICHBOURG, was born April 6,
1848, departed this life, Dec. 10, 1929. Age, 81 years, 8 months and 14
days.
She was married to F. M.
RICHBOURG Aug 27, 1870. To this union were born 11
children, all living except three. All were present at the time of
her death She was a member of the Baptist Church for
52 years. In the home going of Sister RICHBOURG
another sweet beautiful life has gone home, but she has left us a
legacy. I do not see how anyone who looks back on
her memory without feeling that there is such a life as a God
filled life. The church, home and society losses heavily
when such a life takes its flight, but however there are many
compensations. Her many friends feel sure that she is
happier. Rev. 14:13 "and we are all made better in heart
and richer in soul when we reflect on her blessed life"
We know she found the secret to the happy life "Figs
do not grow on thistles." All results require
a cause. She found the star that leads and the power that
guides. The center of her life was Christ. Phil. 1:21,
"Her will had become His will, her life was not only like His
life, but was His life." In Him she lived and moved and had her
very being. Her "life was hid with Christ in God, and when
Christ who is our life shall appear then shall we also appear then
we shall be also appear with Him in glory", Col. 3:34.
She had a Christian face.
It was calm, strong and hopeful. In this age of doubting and
disquietude, it is a boon to find a fact indicating that a confidence in
God had filled her face with a look of calm hopefulness. A pure heart and
a clear conscience had given her a countenance beaming with love
which looked one square in the face. Yea,
looked into the heart, having the effect of a loving
rebuke which virtue always gives vice. She had a
christian courage. It was not a factor with her
that others did. She had the courage to do what
she thought was right. She was a christian mother, a
divine motherhood as wide as the cry of human need. This mother had
a christian hope, sure and steadfastly anchored to that within the veil.
To her, death was not a door which shut out life, but one which
opened into a larger life. Cor. 5:1.8.
Sister RICHBOURG lived a
beautiful life, died a beautiful death, and now since it hath
pleased the good Lord to take her to himself and to her loved ones gone
before, and she cannot come back to us. Many
many lives that remain be influenced and blessed
by her godly life. If any one would have
the same prospect in destiny, then accept her Savior as your
Savior, and her Home shall be your Home, sweet Home.
Funeral services
were conducted by the writer at her request.
