Marriage: 29 September 1859; W. R. Penix; Tennessee
Marriage: About 1868; George S. Wilson

Death: 1876; Dover, Stewart County, Tennessee

Note: From a letter written by Dr. J. Lucien Brown 29 November 1945:
"In 1859 Sallie went to Dover, Stewart County, Tenessee, on the banks of the Cumberland River, to teach school. On Sept. 29, 1861, she married my wife's grandfather W.R. Penix of Ohio (?) who had a business and owned a valley farm across the river. On October 14, 1862, the only child of this marriage was born. General Augustine Penix (Augustine was his first name). His father died in the same year before his birth. His mother remarried about 1868. The second husband was Captain George S. Wilson, a Cumberland Riverman. There were three children of this marriage: James b. about 1870 (who died in childhood; and Richard Eddiie Wilson b. August 3, 1873, now (1945) living at 221 East Pacific Avenue, Spokane, 10, Washington (State). A third and final child, a son, was born about 1875 but died in infancy. [My wife's father] was reared by his aunt Lydia Slater Fairlamb at Hopewell and Chester City, Penn from about 1876-7 until young manhood; he returned south, married Dora Josephine Ballard of Troy, Alabama, lived in Montgomery, Alabama, from about 1891-2 till 1914 whereupon he removed to Karnes City, Texas. His daughter, Hilda Agatha Penix (Brown) is my wife." Sallie lost the farm she shared with her first husband on foreclosure after his death.

Note: There is a photo of Lydia posted on the Internet at http://www.rootsweb.com/~pamercer/photos/lydia_slater_fairlamb.htm , with the caption: Lydia Slater Fairlamb (b. 1837), daughter of John S. Slater and Mary Forbes (first wife of John S. Slater, died in 1844 at age of 32). Lydia Slater married Alfred Fairlamb. The Fairlambs raised Lydia's nephew Augustine Penix. They lived in Chester City, PA, and then in Hopewell, near Oxford, PA. In 1900 Lydia was a widow, living with her children Slater and Nellie in Hopewell.

Biography

Birth: June 1857; Mercer County, Pennsylvania

Marriage: 24 September 1880; Frances Josephine Sweesy; PA

Death: 3 April 1937; Mercer County, Pennsylvania

Burial: Heywood Cemetery, West Middlesex, Mercer County

Note: Thomas was very young when his father died, and evidently his mother had died previously. However, in the 1860 census his father and two sisters were living in Shenango tp. Was his mother still living in 1860, and if so, where was she? Where was Thomas? I cannot find him anywhere in Pennsylvania in 1860. One possible explanation is that he was born about that time and his mother may have gone elsewhere to give birth to her child--possibly at her parents' home?
Thomas' guardians until he came of age were first his uncle Richard Forbes and then Michael C. Trout. Thomas and his wife Frances are in Shenango tp., Mercer county in both 1910 and 1920. In 1930 Thomas was living with his daughter Mayme Shearer in Shenango Tp.
Obituary in the New York Times, 5 April 1937:
"Thomas L. Forbes, father of Russell Forbes, New York City Commissioner of Purchase, died in West Middlesex, PA., on Saturday, after a long illness, at the age of 79. Services will be held today, with burial in the family plot alongside the grave of his wife, who died four years ago. Four other children survive. They are Lloyd of Bend, Ore.; William of Chambersburg, PA.; Miss Florence Forbes of Tampa, Fla.; and Mrs. William Shearer of West Middlesex, with whom Mr. Forbes had been making his home."
