Record for Mary Dixie Hatfield Murphy The Story of Dixie and Blaine, Pike, KY terrybarwinadded this on 18 Apr 2007 Basel's grandfather was Adron Runyon, wealthy land owner and Justice of the Peace in Pond Creek. His grandmother was a servant of the Runyons and bore Adron three children, all the while Adron being and remaining married to Jayne Maynard and Jayne bearing children of her own. The marriage and death certificates of the three boys bear this out. Even more interesting is that Adron, as Justice of the Peace, has signed the marriage certificates. Harvey Gene's married Linda Rutherford and his brothers also married Rutherfords, one a sister of Linda (Harvey Gene's wife) and one a cousin. Adron administered all three weddings and gave the three boys large tracks of land at their weddings. Harvey and his brothers took the May name since Adron never married Mary Ann May. In Basel's time, there were disputes about this land and speculation that the coal companies were mining property rightly owned by the May's but no action was ever taken. They lived in Blackberry KY when they first married and that is where Dyer was born. The 1900 census shows Basel as a farmer, and they are living two houses from Dixie's father Ulysses. Dixie may have come from similar circumstance. Based on census records, her father, Ulysses was married to and living with Sara Varney before Dixie was born and still married to Sara in the 1900 census when Dixie would have been 19. At this time, Dixie is married to Basel. Her mother, Elizabeth can be found living right next to Ulysses and his wife Sara and notes her occupation as housekeeper. Basel and Dixie were actually related. Basel's mother was a Rutherford and Dixie's grandmother was a Rutherford. Both lines lead back to a Reuben Rutherford, born 1760 in Virginia and his wife Priscilla Staton. This couple were maternal great grandparents of Basel and Great Great Grandparents of Dixie. Basel and Dixie must have been good people because despite all of this, Dixie and Basel seemed to have led quite a normal life and raised many healthy, happy children. They faced their share of tragedy. Roland died in the coal mines at a young age and Nancy was killed when she fell off a vegetable wagon. The May boys were well known in the area and all had a great sense of humor and were friendly and kind. They met and married some great spouses and had lots of wonderful children. Dixie was known as a tough lady. Her son Buford married Marie Preston when Marie was only 15. When they first married, they stayed with Basel and Dixie. Dixie was said to have disciplined Marie as though she were he child. She had a reputation for being quite strict as was common in those days.
