John Malcolm was the first born child of Eli and Margaret Helen (McNabb) Crim. His only siblings were four years younger, twins, Hattie Lula and Henry Luther. John Malcolm was generally known by his middle name, Malcolm, and was named for his mother's brother, Malcolm McNabb. Presumably his first name, John, was for his grandfather, John Wesley Crim.
He was born in Rusk County, Texas but spent many of his early years in Alabama where his father had been born.
Malcolm was described by his nephew, Carroll Crim Williams, as "...a tree of a man, about 6'4" or 6"5" and almost no neck. Big booming voice and extremely outgoing."
Malcolm's occupation. as listed on several census records and his 1918 World War I Registraito Card, was "Locomotive engineer."
He married Agnes Josephine about 1903 and they had three children: Margaret, Joseph "Joe" Malcolm, and Shannon. The two older children would grow up and marry but Shannon died when only four days of age.
Agnes died in 1919 and Malcolm would marry at least once more. He married Martha P.; no children were born of that marriage.
According to Malcolm's death certificate he was living at 802 King Street, Jacksonville, Duval Co., Florida, at the time of his death and had lived there for 20 years.
Malcolm's death certificate indicates he died of "Endocerditis - 2 days" (inflammation of the heart lining), "Arthritis Deformans - 3 yrs" and "Multiple Abscesses - 8 mos." Other information on the death certificate was given by his wife, Martha P. Crim, who stated (incorrectly per records of close Crim relatives) that he was born in Kilgore, Texas. She gave his usual occupation as "railroad employee".
Per Carroll Crim Williams, Malcolm is buried in an unmarked grave (Lot #C-240, #4) in Edgewood Cem., Jacksonville, Duval Co., FL. Carroll planned to put a marker at the grave but was unable to do so before his own death. He described the cemetery as "a beautiful cemetery with large trees draped with Spanish Moss."
