Great-Great-Grandmother
Halie must have been an amazing woman. Her family were poor sharecroppers unable to read or write, but her only son, Perry, bought the marker shown to the right for her grave.
She and her younger sister, Malinda, survived the turmoil and deprivation of the Civil War in Jackson County, Alabama when many of their siblings simply vanished from the censuses. She moved to Texas with her son and family in the summer of 1900.
She was married to A. W. Robins (thought to be Andrew W. Robbins) who was murdered by bushwhackers during the Civil War. For reasons unknown she reverted to her maiden name of Simpson sometime after 1870. She was the daughter of Hosea and Alesy Simpson, both of South Carolina.
