Bio
Joseph and his wife Nancy Emmaline Abernathy b: 6 Jan 1866 had thirteen children. Louise Anabel "Belle" b: 31 Dec 1889, married William Oscar Scarbrough. In 1911-1912, they moved to Cottle County, Texas to build a homestead. Belle hated Texas, and I can understand why. The homestead is located 8 miles west of Kirkland, Texas. Kirkland really doesn't exist today except for a few homes left standing from 1900. Considering she had to walk down a hill to draw water from a well and carry buckets back to the house in the Texas heat, it was extremely difficult at best. The land in that region is very flat and no shade of any kind. They built a homestead on the only hill within many miles. You can easily see the curvature of the earth in all directions even today. There is a cemetery named Tennessee Valley Cemetery located on Texas Farm Road #1033. This cemetery is the final resting place for the Scarbrough and Wallen (spelled Wallin in Texas) who moved from Polk County to Texas in the 1890s. Belle returned to Polk county in 1915.
