Bio written and posted by Ronald Barlow, on his Farm Road 1 - From one end to the other facebook group:
There'll never be another George Jacks.
George was one of the smartest and most reliable men I've ever worked with.
It didn't take me long to figure out that if I had a mechanical problem that I couldn't solve, whether it be on a car or truck, or a tractor, or a hay baler, just ask George to look at it.
George was not much of a team player.
He flew solo most of the time.
His mind was too focused and worked too fast to be patient enough to tolerate the foolishness of us who lacked the ability to focus only on the task at hand to see it through to completion with no distractions.
I believe that if George had survived long enough to have been under a car hood at the time of the Rapture, that he would have asked Jesus for a few more minutes to finish torqueing some bolts.
Me and George worked well together.
If something mechanical or electronic didn't do what it was designed to do, I'd tell George what I had seen or heard or felt or smelt right before something quit working, and then take maybe a few more seconds to tell him what I had ruled out as the culprit.
...and then I backed out of the way and waited on this genius to ask me for assistance...which wasn't very often.
George didn't like anybody hovering over his shoulder.
Nor, did he like taking directions from people that liked barking orders.
Tell him what you knew about the problem, then back off and let him at it.
A couple of years ago, my old Dodge pickup wouldn't crank in the high school parking lot at Pineland.It was late at night, and as usual, I was the last one leaving, because I had stood around talking too long after the meeting was over.
My battery was strong and the engine turned over just fine, and after a quick check under the hood, I ascertained that the spark plugs were firing.
There was a quarter-tank of gas in the tank...and I hadn't noticed anything unusual pulling in earlier that evening.
I called George.
Other than the time it took him to get out of his recliner, put on his overalls and his shoes, and drive the two or three miles to Pineland, he had me headed home within two or three minutes after his arrival...with a hammer tap to the bottom of the fuel pump, which was inside the gas tank, underneath the pickup bed.
A call to almost anybody other than George would have eventually involved a chain or a tow truck, lifting the bed off the truck frame, replacing the fuel pump, many hours of labor, a big bill, and me being afoot for at least a full day.
I gave George a $20 bill and we were both back in our recliners within ten or fifteen minutes.
George was hard-headed. He wouldn't waste time doing something useless just because someone else thought they knew more than him.
George didn't waste words.
When he spoke, I listened.
I knew that he wasn't going to say it twice, and it was well thought out before he said it.
It didn't matter what we were working on, George was the master and I was the assistant.
I might be the boss of the fifty other people working around us, but I was just the apprentice handing tools, or turning keys, or pushing clutches or running for parts for George.
It worked much better that way.
I know other folks that couldn't work with George.
Some called him "contrary" or "ornery."
Most never learned to leave the chit-chat or b.s. aside until the work was done.
Others besides me that knew the value of having a "George" around, included Frank Shaver, Welden Elliott and Don Tate. George helped us get to where we got.
I called him often.
?and always got the right answer.
I'll be lost for a time without George.
I know plenty of good mechanics, but none like George.
I miss you already, George. I hope the Good Lord's got a set of tools waiting for you.

George was born December 23, 1953 in Pineland, Texas to Marvin Edward Jacks and Elease Tatom Jacks.

Jacob Luurszen and Stijntje Douwes had a son, Luur Jacobsen (son of Jacob) baptized in the Dutch Reform Church of New Amsterdam (NYC) in 1650. Only the father's name was recorded at that baptism. After the death of his father, Luur moved with his mother and stepfather to the area of Kingston.
from: Family History Our Dutch Heritage A Research Synopsis of the Kuykendall Family: Kuykendall, Kirkendall, Cuykendall, Coykendall, etc Compiled by Gene Kuykendall, 1997 http://w3.gorge.net/forest/FAMILY%20HISTORY%20BY%20GENE.htm
Emily Stowell notes that Luur signed his name using the toponym "van Kuykendall" only once that is known of, and that was at the christening of his youngest daughter, Seyte in 1706.
THE NAME KUYKENDALL, ITS ORIGIN, DERIVATION AND MEANING.
For a number of years I have occasionally met a person who formerly lived in Holland, and on hearing the name Kuykendall, the first thing almost that was said, was, "Your name is Dutch, or of Dutch origin." Several have told me they used to know people of our name in Holland, but that it was spelled a little differently there. Mr. A. J. F. Van Laer, Archivist for the state of New York, and New York State Library, writing to me in regard to the ancient home of the Kuykendall family, and the name, said: "I suspect that Kijk-in-'t-dal is a locality near Wageningen, which lies on a high hill on the bank of the Rhine, and commands a fine view of the river." In a letter written later he says: "There seems to be no doubt that your family originally came from Wageningen. I am still inclined to think that Kijk-in-'t-dal may have been the form from which Kuykendall is derived, because there is an elevation near Wageningen, called Wageningsche Berg, from which one obtains a beautiful view of the valley of the Rhine, and secondly there are other names of similar construction in the Netherlands, the most striking being that of Kijk-in-de vegt, which is borne by a family in the province of Overijessel."
In relation to this subject, Mr. L. P. de Boer, historian of Dutch American families, wrote me in March, 1913: "I have struck analogies of the name Kuykendall in one of the Dutch periodicals, headed, "Rare and Curious Names," a locality, Kykenweide, near Overyossel, is mentioned to have existed in 1460-1496, 'Mead on View,' or 'View of the Mead.' I now remember to have seen a street in Groningen called 'de Ky-in-Jat Straat,' or "Look-in-the-gate' street. These examples strengthen my belief in the etymology of the name as suggested by Mr. Van Laer and you." Kijk is an old Dutch word or form for view, and is pronounced as if spelled Kuyk or Kike. Mr. Van Laer says the derivation from Kijk-in-'t-dal, which in Gelderland dialect may well have been spelled Kuykendal or Kuukendal, seems altogether most likely.
Mr. Dingman Versteeg, genealogist for the Holland Society, says "That so-called Scotch tradition was simply invented afterwards, to account for the misspelling Kirkendall." It may help also to account for the mis-pronunciation of the name, for many even of those who spell it Kuykendall or otherwise, pronounce it as if spelled Kirkendall. Mr. Van Laer says "The explanation of the name meaning Chicken valley is absurd, for if named from a valley where young chickens abounded, it would be more likely Kippendal (chickendale). There are several instances in the early records which would tend to show that the Kuykendall ancestors lived at or near Wageningen. We find Urbanus Luursen signed his name Urbanus Luursen van Wageningen, and the name of our ancestor appears in a power of attorney given by himself, signed "Jacob Luyersen van Wageningen."
At the time of the advent of our ancestor in America there were in use what are called patronymics, that is, father names. The family name corresponded to what is the surname now, but was often the name of the ancestral home, and was preceded by the word van, meaning from. If the family had adopted the name of the place where their fathers lived, then the Van was begun with a capital V, for instance Van Etten, Van Meteren. Many patronymics had a suffix that meant son, or son of. For instance a man who was the son of a father named William was called William's son, which later became Williamson, the family name. Thus we have the names Johnson, Peterson, Davidson, and many others. In the case of Irish and Scotch names there were many that were preceded by Fitz or Mac, which being added to other names, as Simmons, Hugh, Donald, made Fitzsimmons, Fitzhugh, McDonald or Macdonald, the terms Fitz and Mac meaning son or son of. In all these instances and many other, if the families should now undertake to trace their names back to their original formation, they would come to a person bearing the name Simmons, Hugh, or Donald, or otherwise, and if they wished to go still further back, they would have to seek some other proof or data to enable them to proceed.
It appears that the Dutch, along about the time our ancestors came to America, preferred the use of the patronymic or father name. Mr. Versteeg, genealogist for the Holland Society of New York, mentioned before, who was for some years the editor and publisher of "The Netherland Register," had in one of the numbers of the magazine, a very interesting and instructive article pertinent to this subject. Speaking of changes of names he said: "The Coykendall and Kuykendall families both trace their origin to Jacob Luurszen, but it was more than half a century after his death that his descendants began the use of the name Van Kuykendaal. The people were averse to using the family name, unless the person occupied a very prominent position." While, as Mr. Versteeg says, the family name Van Kuykendaal does not appear until fifty years after the death of our Holland ancestor, the evidence as to our lineal descent from Jacob Luurszen cannot be doubted. It is clear from the record that our ancestor's name was Luurszen. The Kuykendall family name is not peculiar or different in this respect from many other names found all over the country.Take the name Roosevelt, for instance. The ex-president's ancestors came from Holland, and as it happened, from the same province of Gelderland as our Kuykendall ancestor. The Roosevelt name as found in early New York records was Claes Martinszen. His name is usually found written this way, and only twice as Claes Martinszen Van Roosevelt. The family dropped the Martinszen and the Van, and adopted Roosevelt as the family name, so that now it is Roosevelt (Rose-field), the locality in Holland from whence the family came. In precisely the same way the Kuykendall name was Luurszen, and our ancestor's name was Jacob Luurszen (Van Kuykendaal), as has been shown. Our people dropped the Van and the patronymic Luurszen, and retained the present family name Kuykendall.

Francis "Linda" James followed her soulmate and beloved husband, Kurt Butler, to be in the arms of our Savior February 3, 2023. There she met her mama Arletha "Arlie" Cooper, daddy Jesse Howard James, brother little Cole Harold, and 3 beautiful sisters, Bennie "Neni" Adkins, Betty Lou Foster and Dorothy Juan Hart. What a reunion!
She is survived by her three daughters, Linda (Terry) McCue, Toni (Matt) Wolff, and Angel James Butler; 8 adored grandchildren who know her as mamalynn: Joshua, Wesley, Rachel Lynn, Le'Chelle, Erica, Brooke, Elijah, and Wyatt; as well as many great grandchildren.
Mom was a devoted, mother, wife, mamalynn, aunt, cousin and friend. And to some strangers, their "angel." Mom was always there anytime she was needed. Only a phone call and drive away. She is the strongest person I know. Even in her illness and final earthly days, she declared, "I dont need medicine; Jesus Christ is all I need!" A woman of unwavering faith. We are so thankful she brought us up in the truth. She was our nurture, rock, shield, best friend, confidant, cheerleader and compass. To this day, she is still pointing us to Christ. Amen. Thank you, Mommy! I thank God for you and miss you every second of every day.
A Memorial Service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, July 22, 2023 at Starr Funeral Home Chapel in Hemphill, Texas.
Visitation will begin one hour prior to service time.

Called Lillie. Fay Payne Yeager has a photograph of Thomas B and his second wife Lillie with their first child, little Clyde Marion, taken in an Indian Territory studio in about 1900. Lillie has an Indian appearance but was listed as "white" on the 1910 census. Additionally, she was not listed as a citizen of The Five Civilized Tribes.
Later correspondence from her only surving child, Marguerite Ray, however, indicates she may indeed have been Native American. Marguerite wrote both Bessie (Gentry) Payne and Lois Payne in 1950, stating "I had my proof of heirship papers filled out in Duncan and took them by Muskogee to the Indian Agency." She also refers to help she received from Baron McClendon in this process. However, Marguerite may have been filing for benefits based solely on her father's enrollment in the Chickasaw tribe by marriage to his first wife, and not on her mother, Lillian.
This is Lillie's census listing at the time of the 1910 census, shortly before she died:
Oklahoma, Stephens County, Parks Township, District 240 215-215
Payne, Luellie Head F W 32 Wd 3/3 Texas Kentucky Missouri

DUNCAN WEEKLY BANNER Obituaries and Death Notices
November 25, 1910
The Banner, in common with the many friends of the relatives, is grieved at the announcement of the death, on Tuesday evening at 7 o'clock, of Mrs. Lillian Payne at the family home east of Duncan. She was sick only a few hours, acute conjestion being the cause of her death. Five (sic) children, the youngest five years of age, survive her. She was the wife of T. B. Payne, brother of W.W. Payne, who died about two years ago. Interment was in the Marlow cemetery yesterday afternoon.
The inscription on her headstone reads:
Honored beloved and We??
Here Mother lies
They who knew her best will
Bless her Name
and keep her memory dear
While life shall last
She MIGHT have been the daughter of Edward and Elizabeth JAMES, who were listed on the 1900 Indian Territory, Chickasaw Nation, census as follows:
JAMES, Edward Feb 1858 Kentucky Kentucky Kentucky
JAMES, Elizabeth Jan 1860 Texas Missouri Missouri Mother of 11 children, 10 surviving
9 children were listed in the home with the James family. Perhaps Lillie, who married Thomas Bunker Payne in 1899, was the 10th child, the only one not living at home. I was unable to find this family in 1880 to confirm they might have had a three year old daughter named Lillian.

PETERSON, ALICE F. Alice F. Peterson, formerly of 5191 S. Grant St., Littleton. Memorial service Tuesday, 1 P.M. at Drinkwine Family Mortuary. Memorials may be made to the Salvation Army.
Sharon Nemeth emailed that "Anna Janda Bures died 24 May 1933 and I was able to find two references to that in the Milligan Review, which was a weekly paper. Considering the in-depth information a lot of the other obits carried, hers is extremely short and a number of survivors are surprisingly not mentioned, including her step-mother, Rousy, her older half sister, Emma Hranac [Janda] Yeck, her older sister, Mary Janda Sluka, her younger half brothers, Joseph Janda (Sr.) and Ed Matejovsky, and her younger half sister, Agnes Matejovsky Redmond.
The first article ran in the 26 May 1933 issue on the front page and simply said, "MRS. JOE BURES PASSES AWAY Mrs. Joe Bures passed away at the family home near Burress, Nebr., Wednesday, May 24. Funeral services will be held Friday, May 26th, and burial will be in the south cemetery at Milligan."
A transcription of the 02 Jun 1933 obituary from the Milligan Review is below:
Anna Janda Bures
Anna Janda Bures was born in Fillmore County, May 16, 1884, and passed away at the family home near Burress, Neb., May 24, 1933, age 49 years and 8 days.
She leaves to mourn her loss her husband, Joe Bures, two sons Joseph and Leo, two brothers, Vincent and Gus, and one sister, Stella Posvar.
Funeral services were held Friday, May 26, burial in the south cemetery, Milligan.
