HUGH CALDWELL PATTESON
Hugh Caldwell Patterson was born June 13, 1854 in York County, Pennsylvania to Hugh and Nancy Agnes Crabtree Patterson. Hugh died at Mooreland, Oklahoma, October 18, 1946 at the age of 92 years, 4 months and 5 days.
Hugh was united in marriage to Miss Bessie Farley Russell, March 23, 1882 in Kirkwood, Warren County, Illinois by E. W. Thomson, Pastor of the Presbyterian Church. To this union was born six sons, and five of whom survive. Harry Patterson was stillborn on the Homestead in Major County, Oklahoma, October 12, 1902.
Hugh united with the Methodist Episcopal Church at Elmo, Missouri in 1895.
Hugh and Bessie did a lot of traveling after their older boys got married and lived on the Homestead. Hugh and Bessie took a covered wagon with a buggy on behind. They used the covered wagon as cooking and sleeping quarters. They parked the covered wagon and took the buggy to different places in the area where they were parked.
Hugh and Bessie lived in half of the house on the Homestead with Jesse and his family for several years. I, Bessie as a young girl remember a lot of good times we had with our grandparents. On warm summer evening after dark Grandpa Hugh would set in a chair out in the yard and tell us stories about the stars and the bats from the caves that flew over. Grandpa Hugh always had a beard and he would let us comb it while we were setting on his lap. Grandma Bessie did a lot of sewing and fancy hand work. She made us clothes and also made clothes for our dolls. During the summer she would take our dolls and repaint them and make them new clothes so we would have a new doll on Christmas.
Bessie also help with the cooking and canning in the summer.
It is nice to have all the good memories about my grandparents.
Those left to mourn Hugh's departure of this like are his widow, Bessie Patterson of the home address; and the sons: David of Anchorage, Alaska; Hugh Franklin, of Coldwater, Kansas; Arney Russell, of Aztec, New Mexico; Samuel Fredrick, of Muskogee, Oklahoma; and Jesse Robert, of Quinlan, Oklahoma; also 22 grandchildren, 11 great grandchildren; and one great-great grandchild, as well as other relatives and a host of friends.
Funeral services were held at the Methodist Church Sunday at 2:30 p.m., O. W. York, officiating.
Burial was made in the Mooreland Cemetery, R. J. Knittel, in charge of funeral arrangements.
