XXVII WINCHESTER PEGRAM5 AND DANIEL
Winchester and Mary lived near the mouth of the South Fork River in Lincoln County, which is now known as the South Point Section of Gaston County, having been cut off from Lincoln County in 1846. This area was also the general locale of Daniel Pegram, Winchester's father. About 1850 Winchester and Mary moved to Dallas, just north of Gastonia. Winchester was a merchant there, and also kept a hotel. The Gastonia, North Carolina Daily Gazette of 28 September 1945 carried an article entitled "Old Pegram Home, First built in Dallas, Being Torn Down by Workmen." It was a large two story house with an ell, and chimney at either end. It was on the southwest corner of the square. It was built by Col. Morris, almost all of heart pine. It was a stately building and stood for ninety five years before being torn down to be replaced by an oil station. The home is described in a book on Old Gaston County Homes. Miss Corinne Puett, a descendant of Winchester and Mary Stowe, wrote on page four of "Dallas Homes" that "Mr. Pegram was killed by a falling tree in 1861, and Mrs. Pegram continued to live there until her death in 1866. Mrs. Pegram had a pretty flower garden on the west side of her house, and today many of Grandma Pegram's flower descendants live on in the gardens of her children and grandchildren." A daughter, Mary Ward6, made her home with her mother, and continued to live there a long time after her mother died. Later the home was occupied by Sheriff Jim White, and Mrs. O.F. Mason and family. Mrs. Miles Rhyne bought the home, and later her son, Eugene Rhyne owned it, and lived there for many years. We visited Miss Puett in the summer of 1982. She was in her nineties, in the poorest of health, and confined to the bed, but still interested and alert about family history. She has since died. It is interesting, judging from the rather poor newspaper pictures, that the Winchester Pegram home appeared from the front much like "Bonneville", the home of General John Pegram in Dinwiddie County, Virginia, built in 1800. It was, of course, built fifty years later and not by the Pegram family. The Pegrams were charter members of the Presbyterian Church at Dallas, which was organized in 1851. Winchester was the first Ruling Elder. His descendants are still leaders in the Presbyterian Denomination. One of his grandsons, ROBERT MURRY PEGRAM7, was a Presbyterian minister, and there were one or more other descendants that were ministers. Mrs. Frances Pegram Weaver and her two sisters, great granddaughters of Winchester and Mary Pegram, are today, 1983, active in Presbyterian work, have held responsible appointments, and have been officially honored for their contributions. The death of Winchester Pegram resulted when he tried to rescue a calf from underneath a falling tree. In the Annals of Lincoln County, page 173 it is stated:
Both Winchester and his wife Mary are buried at
the New Hope Presbyterian Church Cemetery in Gaston County, North
Carolina. 164
NANCY MELVINA PEGRAM6, daughter of Winchester Pegram and Mary Stowe, was born 5 December 1819. She married Sam Watson Craig of Gaston County in 1840 or 41, likely 10 February 1840. Nancy died 10 November 1851. Her two daughters, REBECCA7 and VIOLET, were named in her father's will. DANIEL THEODORE PEGRAM DANIEL THEODORE PEGRAM6, son of Winchester Pegram and Mary Stowe, was born in Lincoln, now Gaston County, North Carolina, 21 September 1821, and died 10 September 1901. He first married Lavinia Isabella Stowe, 18 September 1849. She was born 11 February 1829 and died 18 May 1864. She was the daughter of Abram and Sarah Martin Stowe (103, 126). In 1857 Abram Stowe made a trust deed to D. Theodore Pegram for a tract of land of 690 acres on Crowder's Creek in York County, South Carolina. This was for the children of his daughter Lavinia Isabella (York Co. Bk. R. p. 416). In 1864 Lavinia Isabella died, and in 1866 Daniel Theodore deeded the 640 acres to his and Lavinia's children, namely; Sarah Emma, Thomas C., William M., John B. and Franklin T. (Bk. T., p. 223). In 1874 Thomas Chalmers Pegram sold his part of the land to his father, and in 1875 he bought it back. The York County, South Carolina Cross Index to Deeds shows a number of real estate transactions between Daniel Theodore and his children. Daniel Theodore and Lavinia had eight children, five of whom lived to maturity. The three that died young were EDWARD PINCKNEY7, 2 August 1850 to 24 December 1850; ALBERT STOWE, 17 April 1859 to 17 September 1860 and MARY LAVINIA, 12 February 1863 to July 1864. The five children that lived to maturity were SARAH EMMA7, THOMAS CHALMERS, WILLIAM MILES, JOHN BRECKENRIDGE and FRANKLIN THEODORE, presented below. SARAH EMMA PEGRAM7, daughter of Daniel Theodore Pegram and Lavinia Isabella Stowe, was born 6 February 1852, and died unmarried in Gaston County, 24 December 1871 THOMAS CHALMERS PEGRAM7, son of Daniel Theodore and Lavinia I. Stowe, was born 12 October 1853, and died 12 May 1902. He married Martha Roxanna Craig. They lived in Gastonia, North Carolina, and had five children. EARL STOWE PEGRAM8, son of Thomas Chalmers Pegram and Martha Craig, was born in 1877 and died in 1915. He is buried in Oakwood Cemetery in Gastonia, North 165 Carolina. He married Winnie Barron. Earl Stowe Pegram was a very promising business man, whose career was cut short by his death at 38 years of age. At the very young age of 18 he was the cashier of a bank. His obituary stated:
He was a Mason. He and Winnie had four children:
Earl Stowe Pegram and Winnie Barron had no male children, and that is probably the reason that their fourth child, a daughter, was named for her father. LAMAR CRAIG PEGRAM8, son of Thomas Chalmers Pegram and Martha Roxinna Craig, was born in 1879. He married Anna McKennon. Lamar Craig was as popular as his brother Earl Stowe. Like his brother, he was a banker, and a promising business man. He died at 37 years of age. The information available is from his obituary. "He was one of the best loved and most prominent young business man of this section of the state. . . ." Lamar served first in the First National Bank in Gastonia, and later in Wilmington, Kings Mountain and Lenoir, North Carolina. At the time of his death he held a responsible position with a string of mills, comprising the Lenoir, Moore Hudson and Whitnel Cotton Mills, (103). "He was a young man of fine ability and strictest integrity." EDWARD NEWTON PEGRAM8, son of Thomas Chalmers Pegram and Martha Craig, was born in 1885, and never married. JENNIE McILWAIN PEGRAM8, daughter of Thomas Chalmers Pegram and Martha Craig, was born 1 March 1892, and died 15 March 1893. WILLIAM MILES PEGRAM7, son of Daniel Theodore Pegram and Lavinia Isabella Stowe, was born 9 September 1855, and died 10 April 1900. He married Gertrude Adams, 30 March 1887, and they had three children: LAVINIA ISABELLA8, born 2 September 1889 and died in December 1917; MARY MITCHELL born 16 March 1891; and CHARLES ADAM, born 16 September 1900 and died 10 June 1902. All were buried in Charlotte, North Carolina. JOHN BRECKENRIDGE PEGRAM7, son of Daniel Theodore Pegram and Lavinia Isabella Stowe, was born 17 May 1857, and died 9 December 1923. He was first married 21 April 1886, to Rachel Frances Hope, who was born in 1865 and died in 1903. They lived in York, South Carolina, and John Breckenridge left a will there. He is shown there in the Cross Index to Deeds in 1885, and perhaps in other years. John Breckenridge and Frances Hope had seven children, presumably all born in York, South Carolina. Three sons died in early childhood, they were JOHN STOWE8, 28 July 1887 to 30 June 1894; WILLIAM EDWARD, 2 April 1894 to 19 May 1896 and THOMAS CHALMERS, 3 May 1902 to 5 May 1906.

He was born 2 March 1889 and died 5 December 1981. Mrs. Weaver lives in Red Springs, North Carolina, 1983. She is keenly interested in the genealogy of the Pegram family, and has supplied me with considerable information on the descendants of Daniel Pegram4 in North Carolina, especially on the descendants of Winchester Pegram and Mary Stowe. Some unrecorded family interest items were especially valuable (103). ELIZABETH HOPE WEAVER9 was born 17 September 1922. She married Charles Thomas Sardeson, a Minister. He was born 19 September 1921. He is a graduate of Washington and Lee University, and attended Seminary in Philadelphia. He is the author of two religious books.

167 Frances Hope, was born 9 November 1899, and died in 1971. She was said to have married Wesley Clark, 12 July 1926 (19). Another source, acutally her sister, Frances Louise (103), stated that she married L.W. Marquart in 1958. Both are probably correct. Mr. Marquart died in 1977. He and Annie Elizabeth are buried in Rose Hill Cemetery in York, South Carolina. John Breckenridge Pegram's wife, Frances Hope, died in 1903 and John married Frances Elizabeth Erwin, 15 November 1905. She was born in 1870 and died in 1954, and is buried in York, South Carolina.

She was born in 1862 near Clover, South Carolina. Franklin Theodore is listed in the Cross Index to Deeds, York County, South Carolina, as Grantee in the years 1866, 1882, 83 and 85. He was only about five years of age at the 1866 transaction, but as will be recalled, Abram Stowe mandated in a trust deed of 1857 that 640 acres of land be divided among his daughter's, Lavinia Isabella's, children upon her death, which occurred in 1864.

Daniel Theodore Pegram6 married Ferriba Alvina Cooper, 29 January 1869. It will be recalled that Thomas Chalmers Pegram, son of Daniel Theodore and Lavinia Stowe, sold his father the land that he received from his mother's estate, under a trust deed from his grandfather Abram. Stowe, and then bought it back in 1875. It was about this time that Daniel Theodore and his second wife, Ferriba Cooper, left the Crowder Creek Community of York County, South Carolina. Mrs. Frances Pegram Weaver, granddaughter of Daniel Theodore Pegram, described her grandfather's home on Crowder's Mountain as a beautiful, pristine, mountainous area, rich in mineral deposits. After much political haggling the State acquired 1,875 acres of the area as a park (103). Daniel Theodore bought a tract of land in the Steele Creek Community of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, and that is where he and his second wife, Ferriba Cooper made their home and reared their seven children. Some of the children of Daniel Theodore and Lavinia Stowe were still at home after the move to Steele Creek. Apparently Daniel Theodore soon established himself as one of the leaders in the Steele Creek Community. Among other things, he was an Elder in the Steele Creek Church. He was said, by his granddaughter, to be a very devoted Christian. A story was printed in the Charlotte (N.C.) Observor in July 1943, stating that there was a long drought in the area and the Church Elders decided to meet and pray for rain. The Steele Creek Church was on a sloping hill, and as Daniel Theodore approached several of the Elders seated on the church steps, saw that he was carrying an umbrella. They jested to him, "what are you doing with the umbrella?" He replied, "we came to pray for rain, didn't we, and I believe that we will get it." On his way home after the prayer meeting there was a regular gully washer of a rain, and it went down in history as Daniel Theodore Pegram's rain (103). The article was published forty two years after Daniel Theodore's death, so the story must have had some validity to have survived for so long. Religious training in the days of Daniel Theodore was not taken lightly. His granddaughter, Frances Pegram Weaver, relates that her father, John Breckenridge Pegram, told her of having to keep the Sabbath Day Holy. No shoes could be polished, no nuts cracked, only absolutely necessary activities were allowed. I too can remember some of the restrictions on Sunday activities. Certainly no one did any work, and when children became too loud in their play, they were told to quiet down, and remember that this was the sabbath. This was out in the country where hardly anyone, outside of God, would have heard a bomb explode, but that was not the point of the issue. 169 Daniel Theodore and Ferriba had seven children: WIRT7, DOUGLAS, ANNA ELIZABETH, LELIA EUGENIA, LAURA ISABELLA, ROBERT MURRY McSHEEN and ALEXANDER HODGE. WIRT PEGRAM7 was born 25 April 1870, and died in 1926. He married Amanda Neal Crowell, 21 December 1899. She was born in 1876 and died in 1950. Wirt and Amanda are buried in Steele Creek Cemetery.
