Talent can never be developed at too young an age: This fact was proven recently as the Idaho Falls Art Guild donated 1,958 hours of their time and talents to teach over 228 youngsters many of the basic fundamentals of art. The special summer course serves to heighten the young artist's interest. Mrs. Max (Goldie) Hales was co-chairman for the Art Classes and has been busy doing the publicity for the 1970-71 year for all Guild sponsored shows. This is the 6th year she has been supervising this program. Her participation in the community is commendable.

FAMILY REUNION REPORTSThe summer is now over and all of our HALES family reunions have been held. The next few pages contain reports of the reunions held at Bakersfield, California; Salt Lake City, Utah; Woodville, Texas and Coos Bay, Oregon. Many people participated in attending the various reunions and some initial planning was done for reunions for next year. The Hales Genealogical Society attended all of them putting 7,943 miles on our car completing the circuit. By our HALES license plate you can see that we are proud of our name. The HALES name has much heritage to it. It is the aim of this Society to make this heritage known to all of our family. Thanks to all of you for your participation at our reunions and the information that we have shared at them regarding our heritage.
BAKERSFIELD, CALIFORNIA REUNION, 26 JUNE 1971.
The reunion was held beginning at 10:00 a.m. and lasting until 5:30 p.m. at Hart Park approximately five miles east of Bakersfield. Those in attendance numbered 18 people. At this reunion Ronald Burns Hales of 9032 Adelia Circle, Huntington Beach, California 92626 agreed to be the chairman for next years reunion in California. The reunion will be held somewhere in the Los Angeles area - details to be announced later. Ron donated some of his collection of family histories to the Society which have been added to our growing HALES book. List of attendees: 1. Ronald Burns Hales 2. Marion Hales 3. Ronald M. Hales 4.

SALT LAKE CITY , UTAH REUNION, FAIRMONT PARK, JULY 17,1971.
We next loaded up our station-wagon, attached our little 18' camping trailer and headed for Salt Lake City, Utah. Prior to the reunion I attended the Salt Lake City Genealogical Library of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - the largest genealogical library in the world - and accomplished some research. I also visited the home of Bishop Robert Hales of Orem, Utah. He was kind enough to let me spend several hours in his home with my portable copier making copies of his work. Some of the Parish Register extracts at the end of this Newsletter are the results of the Hales Family Organization headed by Bishop Hales. There are more extracts than I can include in one Newsletter so they will be continued in a later issue. He donated to our Society a large amount of data that is being incorporated into our HALES book. Many thanks. The reunion held in Salt Lake City at Fairmont Park began at 10:00 a.m. and lasted until 6:00 p.m. It seemed to be a steady stream of people arriving and leaving all day long. Since everyone seemed to come and go in small bunches, I had the opportunity to meet many members of our HALES family. Many people brought information about their family to donate to our Society. Indeed the volume of material brought back from all the HALES reunions will take all winter long to sort through and collate into our book. Jimmie Lester Hales of 8871 W. 3100 So., Magna, Utah 84044 has volunteered to be the chairman of the Utah Hales family reunion for next year so if you have any ideas for it please let him know.

WOODVILLE, TEXAS REUNION, AUGUST 7th and 8th, 1971.
This reunion was the best attended one of all. The HALES reunion of Woodville has been going on for years on the second Sunday in August. There were representatives of the HALES family at this reunion rom the following states: Alabama, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Texas, and California. The HALES reunion of Texas is coordinated by Hugh L. Hales of 5217 DeLange. Houston, Texas 77018. Prizes were given at this reunion for the oldest person there, the youngest person, the HALES branch of the family having the least number in attendance, and the family traveling the furthest. Rosie Hales George won the prize for being the oldest - 87 years young. Annabell Poindexter, daughter of Ann Hales Poindexter won the prize for being the youngest - 3 years. A. J. Hales was the only representative of his branch of the family so he won the least number prize. My family won the prize for traveling the furthest.
This Pennant displayed by Rosie Hales George on the right and Maggie Mae Hales Havard on the left was given to the descendants of the Wesley Hales branch of the family for having the most people in attendance. It is given each year to the family branch with the most people in attendance at the Hales reunion at Woodville, Texas.
Everyone seems to arrive for this reunion at the same time, have a good visit, enjoy many different kinds of good foods, (the food line is more like a banquet) and then leave as fast as they arrive. At the home of Berta Mae Dial I was given a history of one branch of this family written by Addie Lee Holland. This history is included in this Newsletter. Families in attendance include the G. O. Hales family of Biloxi, Mississippi; Mable Hales Taylor of Diboll, Texas; Berta Mae Dial of Diboll, Texas; Minnie Lee Hales Hanson of Lufkin, Texas; Jeffie Hales Courtney of Lufkin, Texas; Effie Hales Green of Aransas Pass, Texas; Clemia Hales Horn of Lufkin, Texas; Ossie Hales Johnson of Lufkin, Texas; Gladys Gidden of Kosse, Texas; Albert and Alice Hales of Livingston, Texas; Bobby Green Walker of Kingsville, Texas; Rosie Hales George of Diboll, Texas; Albert and Maggie Hales Havard of Lufkin; S. A. Johnson of Lufkin, Texas; Lonnie and Wiley Fay Hales Robinson of Cleveland, Texas; Wiley Hales of Woodville, Texas; Lucilla Hales McGaughey of Jasper, Texas; Emmitt B. Hales of Groveton, Texas; Wiley Ethel Hales Carlton of Groveton, Texas; Lorine Hales Nelson of Nederland, Texas; James Crawford family of Greensboro, Alabama; Micho Hales family of Lufkin, Texas; Scott Hales of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; A.

Hales of Baytown, Texas. By my count there were 73 people in attendance. There were so many I may have missed some of the children - I hope that all the adults signed my attendance book. COOS BAY, OREGON REUNION, August 28, 1971.A Picture of the Coos Bay, Oregon, reunion: Left to right, Forrest John Hales, Judy Hales, Marian Hales, Elda Hales and Bernell Woodruff Hales. The site of the reunion was delightful. The weather was a bit chilly to start but warmed some as the day progressed. My children had a great time on the beach making sand castles and watching the tide come in higher and higher until the castles washed away. Enjoyed the company of Forrest John Hales and his wife Marian. Later in the day their son also joined us (William) with his friend. Bernell Woodruff Hales and his wife Sarah Elda drove up from San Francisco to join us also. By count there were 13 people at this reunion.
Silas Hales family history The following article is based on a history compiled and written by Addie Lee DuBose Holland of Diboll, Texas. Addie Lee is the daughter of Tom and Martha Melinda Hales DuBose of Angelina County, Texas. It has been edited for this newsletter.Whats your Line?
If you could see your ancestors All standing in a row, Would you be proud of them? Or, don't you really know?
Strange discoveries are sometimes made,
In climbing the family tree. Occasionally one is found in line Who shocks his progeny. If you could see your ancestorsAll standing in a row,
Perhaps there might be one or two
You wouldn't care to know.
Now turn the question right about,
And take another view. When you shall meet your ancestors, Will they be proud of you?
John Hales, age 21, embarked in ship "Assurance" for Virginia from England on July 24, 1635. He sailed from London. He was examined as to his religion and took the oath of allegiance; this was done by the Minister of Gravesend, Kent, England. By 1728 there were several Hales families in Virginia. John Hales in Westmoreland County in 1728 had a son who was living in Westmoreland County in 1753. This family moved to North Carolina about 1770. They were in Johnston County, North Carolina by 1776. John Hales had at least three sons, perhaps four: John Hales, Jr.; Silas; Henry and Chapman Hales.
Silas Hales was born about 1753 in Virginia. In 1776 he was old enough to go to war. The following account is taken from the application Silas made for Revolutionary Soldiers Pension. He made the application on October 22, 1833.
Silas Hailes (as spelled at times) first volunteered as a private in the war in Anson County, North Carolina under Captain James Flair. The company was a troop of horse soldiers. The duty of the company was to ride through districts of North Carolina along the Pee Dee River and some across the river into South Carolina, for the purpose of protecting these districts from "the plunder and ravages of the Tories, with whom they had several skirmishes, particularly one with the notorious Tory Major Gainey. The company was also at a severe skirmish near McCallum's Ferry in South Carolina. After they were defeated by the British they repaired back to Anson County, North Carolina." Silas was with Captain Flair's company six months.
Silas then moved to South Carolina in the Darlington District and again volunteered as a private, this time in Captain John Watts company of Infantry. This company was attached to Sumter's brigade. Duties of the company was to travel through Camden District, South Carolina, now Kershaw County, Orangeburg District and Charleston District, "watching and attacking the Tories and guarding the country." Silas also did duty as a military post rider between Camden and High Hills of Santee conveying letters to and for General Greene. This tour of duty lasted four months. His next tour of duty was in Captain Andrew DuBose's company. After a short time he was transferred to the company of Peter DuBose and served in Marion's brigade for two years until the brigade was discharged at Waaboo, near Monk's corner.
Silas married Cynthia Alexander about 1779. She died about 1805 in Darlington County, South Carolina. At least four children were born to this couple. Silas married Spicy Johnson on December 25, 1818, and according to Spicy's statement the ceremony was performed by David Grantham, a Baptist minister. Silas died October 18, 1846 at about the age of 93 in Darlington County, South Carolina.
Before Silas died he made a will on August 3rd, 1846 as follows:
The state of South Carolina, Darlington District:
In the name of God, Amen. I Silas Hales of State and District aforesaid being of sound and disposing mind and memory, but weak in body and calling to mind the uncertainty of life, and being desirous to dispose of such worldly estate as it hath pleased God to bless me with do make and ordain this my last will, and in manner following. That is to say I desire that my executors hereafter named shall call on Doctor Robert L. Hart immediately after my decease and out of three hundred dollars he ows me besides interest on said amount till paid and out of the above mentioned money and interest to pay Burrel Segars one hundred and fifty dollars for my land I bought from Burrel Segars and on the receipt of Burrel Segars, let him, Segars execute a warranted deed to my wife, Spicy Hales for 595 acres more or less, and out of the balance of the above named money I want all my just debts and funeral expenses be paid. Should it prove insufficient for the above purpose then I desire my executors to sell out of my other estate a sufficiency to satisfy all my just debts as shall remain unpaid out of such sale. After payment of all my just debts and funeral expenses I give my wife, Spicy Hales all my land above named together with all my household and kitchen furniture with all my plantation tools and farming utensils all and singular my crops of corn, peas, fodder, shuck and potatoes to have and to hold all her natural life excepting twenty dollars I give to Jurome Johnson to be left in the hands of my executors to be paid to his as necessity may require and after my wife's demise, I want all and singular the above property to be equally divided between my four children in the west, to wit: John Hales, Henry Hales, Alexander Hales and Syntha Thomas. That is to say all my property consisting of 595 acres of land, more or less, two head of horses, my stock of hogs, household and kitchen furniture, crops of corn and peas, fodder, shuck and potatoes and all estate both real and personal of what nature or quality soever it may be, not herein before particularly disposed of, I desire may be equally divided amongst my several children herein before named, and I give the same and their heirs executor, administrators and essence for ever and totally. I do constitute and appoint my friend, Burrel Segars and Duncan Leslie executors of this my last will and testament by me heretofore made in testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and affixed my seal this third day of August 1846.
Signed, sealed and delivered in the presents of:

John Hales (Hailes) was born in Darlington County, South Carolina in 1786. After his mother died in about 1805, John and his two brothers, Henry and Alexander, and his sister, Syntha Thomas, moved west to the Mississippi Territory. Henry and Alexander settled in Wayne and Clarke Counties, Mississippi. John served in the war of 1812. He was a private in Captain James Green's company of infantry, Mississippi Territory militia and appears on that companies payroll for December 28, 1814, but did not commence service until January 28, 1815. Term of service charged, 2 months, 4 days, pay per month 8 dollars. Remarks on this paper are as follows:
"The traveling allowance is calculated at 350 miles from New Orleans to the counties of Adams and Wilkinson, Mississippi Territory, and the rations at 16 cents."
He received his pay in New Orleans on March 31, 1815. He then went back to Washington Conty and was again in Captain James Green's company for the purpose of guarding British prisoners. His service time expired July 27, 1815. He then settled in Franklin County for about one year, because he was one of the tax payers in that county in 1816. He probably was married twice and married in about 1815. In the 1820 census records John Hailes was in Amite County, Mississippi and had 3 boys under 10 years of age and 1 girl under 10. In 1840 he was in Livingston Parish, Louisiana and 5 children were still at home. Some of the older children had undoubtedly married and remained in Amite County. There was a William B. Hales who joined the East Fork Baptist Church in Amite County in 1840, but was excommunicated in 1844 for drinking too much and quarreling.
Henry Jackson Hailes was on a farm next to his father in Louisiana in 1840. He had been married about six years and he and Elizabeth had four children. Between 1840 and 1850 John Hailes and Henry Jackson Hailes moved to Smith County, Mississippi where two of the Hailes boys were already living.

These Hailes families in the Polkville community in Smith County, Mississippi probably attended the Piney Grove Baptist Church there. There are three old cemeteries near Polkville, either one of which might have been the burial place of the Hailes families. John Hailes died on August 19, 1859. His grave has recently been located by Glenn Hales of Biloxi, Mississippi near Polkville Community in an old Hailes family cemetery.

Henry Jackson HALES
Born 1815 in Mississippi, probably in Amite County, the son of John HALES and Rachael ... Married about 1833 Elizabeth HARTLEY. Henry Jackson Hales died 29 JUL 1859 in Smith County, Mississippi. Elizabeth HARTLEY died about 1867 in Mississippi.
Henry Jackson Hales or Hailes took sick on July 20, 1859, probably of some kind of fever, and died on the 29th of that month. He died at his residence in Smith County, Mississippi.
Elizabeth wrote: "Jackson Hales in the 46 year of his age. The deceased was born and raised in this state, lived an exemplary life and leaves a wife and children and a large number of kindred to mourn his untimely loss."
Elizabeth continued to live in Smith County. During the Civil War at least three of the boys went to the war: Henry C. Hales; Abel Dennis Hales; and Wesley Woodall Hales. Elizabeth died in about 1867 in Mississippi. All the children, along with other families, moved to Texas in about 1868 or 1869.
Wesley Woodall Hales was the seventh child of Henry Jackson and Elizabeth Hartley Hales. He was born August 24, 1846 in Smith County, Mississippi. His father having died when he was only twelve years old, he had to help support the family. He grew to be a tall man with brown hair, sharp clear blue eyes. He wore a mustache as did most men of his day.
At the start of the Civil War he was too young to enlist under his own name, but he went for another man. The man gave him a horse in payment for serving two years, but the Yankees took the horse long before the two years were up, so he had nothing for his service. After those two years he enlisted in his own name in Campany A, Yerger's Regiment of Cavalry.
By 1864 the Confederate armies were in bad shape. Many times the soldiers went for days without food or water. One day Wesley's company came upon a deserted Yankee camp. They found some food but not nearly enough for the entire company. As Wesley was walking across the camp site, one place gave to his weight and sounded hollow. When they dug there they found an underground storage with hams, potatoes and flour. Many of the boys had worn out their shoes and their feet were bruised and sore. Wesley found a beautiful white silk scarf which undoubtably had been given to a soldier by his sweetheart, but when one of the boys foot was badly cut he did not hesitate to use it as a bandage.
After the war and after his mother died, Wesley and his brothers and two sisters moved to Texas along with some other families. They first settled in Polk County, where he met Martha Ann Calvert. Martha Ann had come to Texas about 1857 from Alabama. Wesley and Martha Ann were married April 21, 1870. Soon after they moved to Tyler County where some of the older of their children were born. In 1879 he traded a yoke of oxen for one hundred and sixty acres of land in Angelina County near the Neches River. Later he bought (from the state of Texas and recorded as the W. W. Hales survey) some six hundred acres on Renfro Prairie and built a big home with a hall and wide porches. He planted a nice fruit orchard where his children with neighbor children spent many happy hours. The fruit that was not eaten fresh was either preserved, dried or pickled and stored in huge crocks for the winter. He had a large barn which was always full and people in need were welcome to get food there. He raised horses and at one time paid fourteen hundred dollars for a big white breeding stallion. Each of his children had a horse and saddle. For many years he carried the mail from Burke to the post office near his home in Lay, Texas. The community is now known as Beaulah Community.
Wesley was a religious man and was a faithful member at Pine Grove Baptist Church. He helped to build the first building at the church. It was built of logs and had a big fireplace and served also as a school.
The 1880 census for Angelina County, Texas enumerates this family:
House number 218.
Wesley Hales, 34, born Mississippi, farm/rancher
Marthy, 30, wife, born Alabama
Newton, 8, born Texas
Marthy, 4, born Texas
McCutchen, 2, born Texas
Dennis, 9/12, born Texas
James Wesley Hales, the oldest child, was not listed because he was in Tyler County with his grandmother Calvert, and is listed on the census for that county. He was nine years old in 1880.
The family grouping for the Wesley Woodall and Martha Ann Calvert Hales family is as follows:

The eleven children, born to Wesley and Martha Ann, can be found in our Hales Book and are not listed here.
Martha Ann Hales died September 1, 1900. Wesley lived seventeen more years. He died from blood poisoning September 3, 1917. From the Lufkin Daily News: September 3, 1917: "Mr. Wesley Hales, one of Angelina's oldest and most highly respected citizens, died at the home of his son-in-law, Peri George, on Saturday morning, September first and his remains were laid to rest at Prairie Grove the same afternoon." Among the expressions of sympathy was this resolution of respect:
