They traveled in a buggy and arrived in Idaho on Oct 28, 1890. The
parents no doubt traveled with them, an early type-baby-sitter! They
lived in Boise and the house still stands today. Mark (as he was called)
was a carpenter by trade and a staunch Baptist by religion. As many of
the families of that time and faith believed, no card games could be
played in their homes, except those like Rook and Authors!

Note: John built his house betwee 1882-1885.
Sarah Travis was the only sister of William B. Travis of the Alamo.
(William Barrett Travis was born in Edgefield District, South Carolina,
August 9, 1809, the son of Mark Travis Sr. The family moved to Conecuh
County, Alabama, in 1818 and he left Alabama for Texas in early 1835. He
died march 6, 1836, at the Alamo.)
John and Sarah had one daughter, Virginia, in Tennessee before moving to
Judsonia around 1858-59. John homesteaded 40 acres of land where the
little cemetery was located in the northeast corner of their fornt yard.
.
The McDearman Family Cemetery is located in Section 33, Township 8 North,
Range 6 West. It is due north of the Jusonia water tower, on State
highway 13 approximately 100 yards east of the US Highway 13 overpass.
The names and dates were taken from gravestones by Katherine and Charley
Figley of Judsonia January 11, 1980. W.E. Leach of the White County
Historical Society interviewed two McDearman relatives, July 12, 1986,
and published his report in the White County Heritage that year. Two
years later, the Heritage published a letter from another relative who
provided additional information. All graves are covered with concrete and
there is no indication of unmarked graves. The cemetery was located in
the northeast corner of the front yard of the J.S. McDearman home which
was built between 1882-1885. Beside the McDearman graves the Hanson
graves are McDearman daughters and the Perkins grave is that of a
granddaughter. Other family members are buried in Evergreen and Oak Grove
cemeteries.
