James Thomas Haile was the son of Mead J. Haile and Livy Ann Cavin of MO and then TX. Before he married, James Thomas fought for the Confederacy and received a pension late in life (# 29343; Texas State Archives, Austin TX). He married Mary Beaver Hodges on January 10, 1867, in Sherman, Grayson Co, TX. She was the only daughter of James George Hodges and Margarett Hodges. James Thomas and Mary Beaver had eleven children before divorcing in Dickins Co, TX in 1903. I heard stories that he was a traveling preacher and was gone a great deal of the time with this "calling." He was not ordained.... His absences left all of the responsibilities to his wife and children. Possibly this led to the divorce. ???? Late in his life, he lived with his son James Walter Haile in Utopia; he died and is buried there. James Walter and his family moved to California after his father died.
