HISTORY OF THE OLD TELEPHONE ROAD COMMUNITY, COLLIN COUNTY, TEXAS Submitted by Mrs. Edward Hughston • A century ago the dirt road now known as the Telephone Road in Collin County, Texas, was part of the stage coach route between Ft. Worth and Sherman. Along it many of Collin County' s earliest settlers took up land. Old survey maps show the boundaries of their proper ties. When they died they were usually buried on their own land or in a nearby family cemetery. Some of these cemeteries have grown and are still in use. Others are small and almost lost in relatively inaccessible • wooded areas .

Telephone Road begins on the north edge of McKinney. For several miles going north it parallels and runs between old and new Hwy. 75. But it soon crosses the new Hwy 75 and thereafter parallels and runa west of it, This crossing point is noted by a highway sign, Along Hwy 75 in this general area can also be seen the • signe for Throc.kmorton Road and Foster Crossing, both named for early settlers. About ten miles north of 'McKinney, Telephone: Road (and Hwy 75) crosses the Anna­ Weston Road, FM 455. From this eros sing it continues north past the old Hurri­ cane Creek Hun ting Farm and on to the new Hurricane Creek Country Club, north of which once existed the old settlement of Mantua from 1854-1872, From this point the road continues north across the county line toward Sherman in Grayson County. • It becomes very difficult to fellow because of new road cuts, bridges no longer in existence and so forth" ·

The history which foliows was copied from an undated and unsigned clipping from the ''McKinney Daily Courier-Gazette. 11 • "The earliest settlers of ou.r coIDII1Jnity were several families of settlere from Illinois, who came by wagon traih and arrived in 1842. Among them were a Wysong, ancestor of the McKinney OOCTORS WYSONG, TOM RATTAN, great grandfather of DOW RATTAN, a resident on Telephone Road, and a DR. THROCKMORTON, who at that time was not only a medical doctor but also a surveyor. At that time, Texas was an independent Republic and Collin County was part of Fannin County. DR. • THROCKM)RTON is famous as the first surveyor of vast acres of north Texas land. He settled on land now owned by the 'SHERLEY family of Anna and located· just north of what is now the DYSART place, The well which he dug is still there as well as bits of china and glass to mark where the house stood. Just to the east is the OLD THROCKMORTON CEMETERY where DR. THROCKMORTON is buried, In it, in the 1930's, the Daughters of the Republic of Texas erected a monument over his grave. Most • of the graves are unnamed or illegiable, however there are several WYSONG markere. Also three Italians were buried here. They were supposedly killed by Indiana.

The second earliest settlement was located 5 miles north of McKinney (and was) known as the Trinity school district, You can really almost say they both • began about the same time, The first settler in thearea was LEROY CLEMENTS, who located on Clements creek in 1842, where he headrighted 640 acres of land, He and his brother WESLEY, with their families moved from 8 miles north of Old English in Fannin County to the settlement of Throckmorton and shortly moved to their claims, LEROYS on the creek and WESLEYS near Ro land. WESLEY was killed the same year and his family came to live with LEROY, This creek now goes by the • name of CLEMENTS and PLEMMONS.

In 1843 and 1844 PHILLIP S ~ITTH, WILLWI C. LEWIS and AUNT POLLY BOONE headrighted land in the locality. SMITH'S and LEWIS'S land being north of CLEMENT'S and MRS. BOONE'S west of SMITH'S. The Old Trinity school house being built on MRS. BOONE'S land. In 1845 SIHPSON PULLIAM, ABNER SMALLEY and JOHN RART homesteaded over next to the East Fork Creek. That same year BUFFORD • CLEMENTS headrighted 1,280 acres around the mouth of Clements Creek and south. AUNT POLLY BOONE has many descendants living near and in our community. The CLEMENTS were related to the THROCKMORTONS.

No history of our neighborhood is complete without some mention of COLLIN MCKINNEY, signer of the Texas Declaration of lndependence in 1836. Although he • was not of the Throckioorton settlement, he did live at old Man tua, a settlement about 4 miles north of us. Another noted settler was JOHN FITZHUGH and family. The old FITZHUGH place was really a fort, having a stocksde encloaing two or three log cabins. The old spring is still there but all trace of the homestead is gone. JONATHON ALLEN, another settler, and his faml.ly came to Collin in 1851 to select a home. He bought the old BATEMAN place which is now occupied by the • LAWRENCE MILLER faml.ly. One of his sona, llALICHA, married one of Texas 1 gres test patriots, RICHARD B. ROYAL 'S daughter. MALICHA ALLEN was appointed by the Legi­ slature to aurvey out the new boundaries of Collin when the county was carved from Fannin county. JONATHAN ALLEN'S youngest daughter married P. N. BATEMAN and was the mother of QUATE (SISSY) BATEMAN, the famous baseball player. Another member of this famous family waa MISS MINERVA MIMMS. Her home place now being • the present JIM DALE place.

Other familiar names were COFFMAN, SLAUGHTER, BOYER, BRYAN, and KINKAID. JOHN KINKAID was courtin' a RATTAN daughter all the way from Illinois, so after a Texas wedding, they settled on what is now the OYSART place. They becsme the proud posaesaora of the first pig in this part of the Republic. They kept it • tied to a tree and led it to the creek for water. Also of local interest is the fact that it is the belief that the mother of JOE MOORE was the first White baby girl to be bom in Collin County. She was LEROY CLEMENTS daughter.

Few of the deacendants of these old settlere now live in the Telephone Road Community, but to mention a few are as follows: FRANK BOONE, who married UNCLE • JESSIE ORANDUFF 'S daughter KAY: UNCLE JESSIE being the son of WILLIAM ORANDUFF, one of the first settler&. The JOHNNY PLEASANT family now live in the old ORANDUFF home. The old JIM CAVE home or the SMITH home originally, is occupied by his great nephew, ROY CAVE. The old JAMES ROW house has been torn down and been replaced by a beautiful modem brick home occupied by Mr. and Mrs. BILL GILES. •

MEEK DYSART and his son JOHNSTON brought their families from Missouri in 1857 and settled on the old road. The house that JOHNSTON OYSART built still stands on a spot said to be the highes t in the county. At the slave market in Sherman he bought 2 two or three-year-old negro girls. One died, but descendants of the other still live in the community. Several slaves left during the war, • but one UNCLE BILL came back and stayed until his death. Other families who emne later on were the LOFTICE, BOONE and CA.VE and of course many more.

The neighborhood bad a good supply of Indiana when the first settler& came. Some horses were stolen and driven northward by the Indiana. The owners followed • and recovered the horses but one of the men was killed . HAMP RATTAN was killed by Indiana while bunting. His companions bad to leave his body to save themselves and when they returned they bad to kill his dog to get to his body. Most of the -4- • •

Indiana moved westwat:d and some intermarried, trouble soon ceased.

For many years this was very prosperoua grain country. Later cotton became • king •••• DR. THROCKMORTON'S son JAMES, later governor of Texas, was married at the home of. his relatives, the RATTANS, where Mr. OOW RATTAN now has his hoæ. MR. RATTAN was a small boy at the time and the celebration is solidly on his memory. It lasted three days and was called an 'infair,' All the friende and relatives came from far and near and brought so much food that cakes bad to be stacked on • top of cakes - much to the awe of young OOW. A rumor be gan to circulate that some of the young men am:mg the guests were going to shiveree the bride and groom. The young bridegroom threatened that he would have each participant 's .horses tail shaved in retaliation. The shiveree must have taken place because for weeks afterward young men were seen all around the country riding shaven • tailed horses. The first church in the community was a Baptist Church about one mile and a half north of HIGHLAND CEMETERY and first schools were the Trinity School and the old log cabin COFFMAN school, taught by a MR. BLACK who taught the Blue Speller by the singing and outdoor marching method. Just north was the Mantua settle­ • ment, stores• church and another school. Today nothing is left to mark the spot. Whether or not the calm of the neighborhood was ruffled by Texas joining the United States I have never heard, bµt the war between the states made itself felt. At the cross-road where the MARVIN NOLES now live, there were periodic military encampments where the manuvers and target practice was held. CAPT. HALL, · the Coun~y Historian tells me that he used to pick shot out of the tree trunks • there with his pocket knife. MR. OOll RATTAN 'S father kept forty oxen busy bauling supplies to and from Jefferson for the pursuit of the war. CAPT. JOHNSTON DYSART, as paymaster rode his horse all over the country to get the money to pay the soldiers. Fortunately the fighting was far away. After the war, the poverty of the old South, the unsettled and homeless conditions of the defeated, brought • a new kind of man, the outlaw with his revenge, horse stealing and hauging •••• QUANTRELL'S men •••had come here from Missouri and were camping by the same spring now owned by MARVIN NOLES .•• they knocked on the JOHNSTON DYSART door, called a young visiter outside (and hung him.) • • There are grandmthers among us who remember being frightened ••• by bands of Gypsies coming to the door. MRS. FRANK BOONE recalls ••. seeing a big black bear in their orchard. She was sitting on her back porch churning when the bear came up ••••

Same of our old settlers called our road 'KING' S TRAIL'. Whether this has • some historical significance ' or was a fanciful one, we don't know. Bu~ we do know that it was once the stage coach road between Fort Worth and Sherman and was the main road until after Highway 75 was built to the East of us. Many of our ~eighbors remember, running down to this road and watching circus caravans as they traveled on this road enroute to Dallas • • After the Civil War," the U.s. Government built telegraph lines between all their forest (note: this probably should read 'forts') and one was bu.ilt on our road, for which -anyway, here we *a!e * - * '!11: ~l!

Old Throckmorton Cemetery • The Old Throckmrton Cemetery in Collin County, Texas is about 400 yards east of the access road along new Hwy 75 between Throckmorton Road and Foster Crossing. Because it lies in the middle of a small woods (less than an acre) of red oak trees and overgrown thorny vines and other native brush,which woods itself lies in the m.iddle of a very large field of Johnson grasa, this cemetery is not readi­ ly accessible. It can be reached by leaving Hwy 75 at Throckmorton Road, con­ • tinuing north on the access road about 450 yards to a pas ture lane bes ide a hedgerow, following the lane east about another 250 yards where it fades away to notbing, continuing east another 150 yards to the edge of the woods afore­ mentioned.

In this cemetery are buried several of the earliest settlers of the area: • Dr. William Throckmorton, for whom Throckmorton County is named (Dr. Throckmorton was father of Texas Governor Throckmorton); and Thomas Rat tan. The graves of the Fosters and Mrs. Wysong are enclosed with the remains of a metal fence (Chas. H. Wysong married Sarah M. Foster).

-28- • • AN INTERESTING ACCOUNT OF ADmRAL WILLIAM CARTHEW AS GIVEN BY HIS FATHER, GEORGE CARTHEW, AN ATTORNEY, IN 1848 AND PUBLISHED IN 1880 BY G. A. CARTHEW, HIS SON, WHO WAS AN IMMINENT ARCHAEOLOGIST AND HISTORIAN • • Presented By C. M. Carthew-Yorstoun The Reverend Thomas Carthew of Woodbridge Abbey in Suffolk, England, was the only surviving son of Thomas Carthew of Benacre Hall, he having inherited Benacre Hall from Lord North, the Prime Minister to King George III and who in­ stigated repeal of laws which caused the American Revolution, too late. Thomas • Carthew was born at Benacre Hall Aug. 4, 1732 and was buried at Woodbridge in the family vault under the Abbey Church Altar, Jan. 1791. He was Lord of the Manor of Woodbridge.

One of his 23 children from two wives, was Admiral William Carthew of whom we treat, reads like a Hollywood movie, as did the second son, Major General • ~forden Carthew who married Jemima Borland Ewart of Dumfrieshire, Scotland.

William Carthew, the eldest son, was bom in St. Clement Danes, November 4, 1768. After leaving the Grammar School at Ipswich, conducted by the Reverend John King, he obtained a nomination to the Royal Naval Academy at Portsmouth, and in due course entered the Navy ; having attained the rank of Lieutenant, his ship, • (the name of which I do not recollect) was captured by the Americans, then strug­ gling for independency, and he was a prisoner, on parole, but for a short time only, having been exchanged . On his re turn to England, he and his brother, Thomas, who had obtained a Commission in the Marines, were both appointed to H.M.S. Hannibal, 74 guns. Captain -----, one of the Squadron under the command of Sir Edward Hughes, proceeding to the East Indies. The Hannibal, when alene • on detached service, fell in with a Squadron of the French Fleet, consisting of five sail of the line, commanded by Admiral Suffrin, and after a gallant resis­ tance, was compelled to strike to such superior force. Admiral Suffrin, the Commander-in-Chief of the French Fleet in those seas, bad the baseness to deliver over the whole ship 's crew, officers and men, to the tender mercies of the notorious Hyder Ali; the commissioned officers were all marebed up the country • in irons to Bangalore jail, and the poor middies and seamen were compelled to enter into the tyrant 's service, and many of the former compelled to become Mahomedans. The two brothers, their relationship being unknown to the tyrant, were by God 's providence chained together by the legs, and so continued suffering many hardships, indignities and privations till the treaty of 1784, when by the blessing of the Almighty they bad the happiness of again entering the mansion • of their father, by whom and his family they bad been mourned as dead. no intel­ ligence of them from the time of their being delivered over to Hyder Ali having been received. On their re turn, which I well recollect, the fatted calf was killed, and from the estimation in which their father was held, the whole town and neighborhood united in demonstrations of rejoicing, bells, fireworks, bon­ fires, ale drinking, etc. etc. Having had the good fortune to obtain the patron­ age of Admiral Sir John Jervis, Lieutenant Carthew was on the armament, called the Spanish Armament, in 178?, appointed first Lieutenant of H.M.S. Prince, 98 guns, and in 178? obtained the rank of Commander, and was appointed to the command of the Prince Edward, which ship, with a consort, commanded by ----O'Brien, his senior officer, was employed to convey H.R.H. Prince Edward, with troops to Canada, in which service Commander Carthew bad the ill fortune to come in to per­ • sonal collision wi th his Royal Highness, who, contrary to the ru les of the ser­ vice, demanded to hold Court Martial on soldiers guilty of offending, the which Commander Carthew refused to accede, hut to which his senior officer had yielded, • -29- • but having received a written order from his senior officer, Conmander Carthew waa compelled to submit > though under protest, for which conduct, on his re turn to England, he received the approval of the Admiral ty, as did that of Commander O'Brien their censure. •

Comnander Carthew and his brother Tom soon afterwards visited Paris, in which capita! they remained some time; and I have heard them mention that on one occasional visit to the Opera or same other theatre, they espied Suffrien in the royal box, and that it was with mch ado they restrained themselves from insulting hia for his infamous conduct towards them, the expreasions of which e would doubtless have obtained for them royal apartments in the Bas tille. Upon the breaking out of the French Revolution, the brothers, then in Paris, had the happiness to lend their assistance to the escape with tbem of some ladies of high rank and distinction, whose names I dO not remember.

At the commencement of the war with the French Republic, Comnander carthew e was appointed to the co111Dand of the Redoubt, of 20 guns, called from the weight of metal a Floa ting Battery, stationed on the coast of Holland, under the com- mand of Admiral Macbridge, I believe, from which, having been appointed to the rank of Post Captain, in 1704, he was appointed to the command of the Br1111ant frigate, of 20 guns, stationed in the North Sea, under Admiral Duncan; and in 1706, Captain Carthew was appointed to the command of the Regulus, of 44 guns, e on two decks, and in October in that year sailed from Plymouth for the West Indies, and in his passage out, under Admiral ty order, he bad the· good fortune to fall in with and capture "El San Pio", a Spanisb Corvette, of 18 guns, and two Spanish merchant ships with specie on board, under her convoy, by which he obtain­ ed a handsome share of prize money. On reaching his destination, the Regulus was allotted by the Commander-in-Chief on the station, Admiral Sir Hyde Parker, • who afterwards resided at Benhall Lodge, to be the conaort of the Magicienne fri- gate, Captain Ricketts, nephew and beir of Earl St. Vincent, who was unfortunately drowned when afterwards in the command of •tr.e Tonant", 84 guns, Captain Carthew distinguished himself Dllch in the various attacks made on the strong batteries on the islands in possession of the enemy, but was finally, from ill health, obliged to be invalided home, At the time alluded to, the late Captain John • Pordyce Maplea, .c .B", who ma.rried the widow of my brother .)ohn. was first Lieutenant of the Magicienne, and the present Sir Wm. Parker, Commander-in·Chief in the Mediterranean, was a middy. Whilst in command of the Regulus, the Success friga.te, 32 guns, Captain, Pigott, was under his orders as senior officer; this 111-fated officer exchanged from her into the Hermione frigate, and with all his officers were murdered by his own boat 's crew, and the øhip given up to the enemy. e Whilst the Success was under the orders of Captain Carthew • he had the painful task of remonstrating with Captain Pigott for his barbarous and tyrannical con- duct towards his ship '• company, to which bad he attended, his own life and that of his officers, as well as the loss of the Hermione, and the evil of his example would have been spared. Captain Carthew, after his re turn to England, was never again afloat, but resided as an inmate with his brother Tom, (of whom hereafter) • for some few years" Sometime after the death of Francis Brooke, Esq., who after my father 's death, purchased the Abbey, and made it his residence, Captain Carthew re-purchased the old family seat, and resided there to the time of his death, In 180 , Captain Carthew married Pleasance Myers, one of the daughters of Graham Thomas Myers, Esq., only brother of General Sir W. Myers • Bart., and

K.C.B" 1 and niece of Mr. Thomas, the brother of the present George Thomas, Esq., • My brother attained the rank of Rear Admiral, and in 1837 died intestate and without i~sue, aetat 70, and was buried in the family vault in the Sekford Chapel, in Woodbridge church. He for many years fulfilled the duties of a Magistrate and -30- • • Deputy-Lieutenant, as his father had done. The greater part of the barracks at Woodbridge were erected on part of the Admiral 's estate, the rent of which and of same frontage land on the opposite side of the road, brought him an income. e of upwards of I.800 a year. On his death, the abbey and the farm, called the Barrack Farm, also part of his late father 's estate, which he purchased, devolved upon his nephew ~forden Carthew, the eldest son of his next brother the Rev. Morden Carthew, then a Lieutenant, and now Lieut-Colonel, commanding the 21 Regiment Madras Native Infantry, at Singapore. The Admiral 's widow survived him only a few years, and was buried at Kesgrave Church, where her mother and her maternal e relations were interred.
