PHOTO: Maud Cartee with Arthur Ramsey. As far as I know, Arthur is not related to our family. Maud married Sam Hall.

In this photo Sam Hall is in the back row far left (wearing a white hat). Maud is standing next to him. To the right of Maud is her father Will Cartee, and next to him is Ellen Carter Cartee, Maud's mother.

From Annie Arnold Hicks:

 Ellen married Will Cartee the first time, and raised four children.  One of them was married when Will took up with a woman and left Aunt Ellen and of course, he soon wanted to come back but she wouldn’t have him back.  And she struggled and worked and raised her three children (one of her children had died), and did a fine job of it.  They are all married now and have nice families.  And she married a man that treats her right.  His name is Charlie Haigwood.  Her oldest girl died at about 25 years with T.B., I believe.  Her name was Maud.  Maud was married before her parents separated.  She had two sisters and one brother - Lillie, Ralph and Dorothy. 

From Glynda Carter Tucker:

The last child of Ned and Jane was Nancy Ellen.  She was also born in Oregon County, Missouri.  She was born the 25th of March, 1884.  She married William Cartee in 1898.  William was a brother to Thomas that married Isabell Matilda Carter.  William and Thomas had a sister that was married to James Wesley Carter’s son, George.  Her name was Rebecca. Ellen and Will had five children.  I was told that William and Ellen were divorced shortly after the last child was born, sometime after 1919.  She raised the three younger children alone.  The oldest girl, Maude died not long after she married in 1919 and the second child, a boy, Mirl, died at age two. Ellen married Charley Haigwood in 1934.  They lived around Thayer, Missouri. They had a cafe at one time at Alton, Missouri, I believe.  Ellen died 11 April 1972. She is buried at Alton.  She is the only one of Grandpap Ned’s children that I remember. Ellen’s three youngest children are still living.  Lillie lives in Oregon state and is in very bad health.  Dorthy lives in Springfield, Missouri, and Ralph lives in Alton, Missouri.
