Letter from Ellen Elizabeth Kittrell Clark to Mabel Norman Kittrell McAlilley

2245 N. Dayton St.
May 4th 1943

Dear Cousin,
Your letter came yesterday and I was glad to hear from you.
I will tell you the best I can what I know andcan remember of thefamily line back to our great-grandfather, Bryant Kittrellwho was bornin North Carolina and married Mary Norman, our great-grandmother there.They had five or six children who grew to manhood and womanhood.viz:Pleasant, Thomas, William Jones ( our grandfather), Mary and Sallie. Dr.Pleasant Kittrell had a son, Judge Norman Kittrell of Houston, Texas andthere was Atty, General John Randolph Kittrell of Carson City, Nev. I don't remember whose son he was. Uncle Tom Kittrell never married. John R. may have been Uncle Pleasant's son, or there may have been anotherson. I used to listen to Grandma tell about the family by the hour when I was a child and I wish often that I had written down the stories thatshe told for she had a most adventurous life.
Our great-grandfather, Bryant Kittrell and his wife Mary, lived in Chapel Hill, N.C. and their children were educated there and later theymoved to Alabama. Our grandfather, William Jones Kittrell, was a young school teacher in Ala., 21 years old when he fell in love with one of his pupils, 15 years old. Elizabeth Martha Cain, who was born in Abbeville, S.C. They were married and 2 years later my father, Benj. Franklin was born (Dec. 24, 1836). Then came Sarah Bryant, Mary Norman, WilliamPatrick (Uncle Buck), Charles (I forget his middle name), Bryant Jones, Laura ( I forget her middle name), Alice Herndon and Robert Norman. I think grandpaKittrell was named Jones for an aunt whose married name was Jones. I don't remember whether she was his mother's or father's sister.And your father was named Jones for his father and Bryant for hisgrandfather.
When I was a baby (76 years ago) your father gave me a little goldring with B.J.K. engraved in it. I gave it to Kate Stone when she wassmall but I have often wished that I had kept it for one of my ownchildren. I only had two boys and they were named for my father and Mr.Clark's father respectively, but I have a grandson Norman Clark. Grandma said that the Normans were descended from William the Conqueror. RobertNorman had a son, Norman Drayton Kittrell so you see the name Norman hascome down for generations and all have been proud of the name. I am sure that Kittrellville, N.C. was named for the family. Our Great-grandmother was ambitious for her family and often boasted that she was going to have doctors and judges and lawyers in her family. She was very strict about their attending school regularlyand when Uncle Pleasant lost his hat she put a copperas bonnet (a bonnet dyed incopperas) on his head and made him wear it to school. I don't remember in what year he moved to Ala. nor when Grandma's people, the Cains, came from S.C. to Ala. Her Father was Patrick Cain, an Irishman with a brogue, and he was a very fine, uprightman. Great-Grandmother Kittrell went with her sons and daughter, Sallie to Texas and died there at the age of 92 years. We have many kin in Texas. Imet a lady from Houston, Tex. on the train about 28 or 30 years ago and she was telling me about Cousin Norman's family. She intimated that she was or had been,engaged to one of his sons. She said they were very fine people, (Great-grandmother did have her doctors and Judges andlawyers and teachers.
Our Grand-fatherwas brainy but very impractical and it was due to grandma's practical sense that they raised their family. For instance,one year grandpa decided to farm and when he went to the field to plow he would take a book along with him and when heand his negro man would start on a row, he would whip up his horse and make himgallop to the endof the row and then he would sit down and read till the negro caught up with him. Your father was the only one of the children who inherited his mother's management and practical sense. Do you remember Uncle Buck? His son's name was Price [surname of mother: C.S.]. Our grandmother was a very bright woman and was self-educated, as she was ashamed to go back to school after she married and thought she ought to keep house. She was a woman of the highest principles, I am proud to be descended from.
There are only tow of Uncle Rob's children living---Ben Frank and Maud. Maud lives in the Delta Country in Mississippi and Ben Frank lives near Black Hawk. Norman Drayton was a very fine physician and he left two daughters who are the salt of the earth. I surmise that you know more about Aunt Laura's children that I as we didn't keep in touch with them after they moved north. Aunt Laura's only son was named Norman Stone and he was a twin---his twin was Blanche. Helen Stone was the most perfectly beautiful child I ever saw and often wond how she looked when she was grown.
I guess I have told you enough for you to see that the name Norman came from our great-grandmother Kittrell, who was as fine as her namer.
It is a great pleasure to hear from a blood relative and I wish that I might heart more often. I have one son living and he is 39 years old and porbably will not be called to the service, as he has dependent children but I have grandson in the Navy and two more who may have to go although they are doing essential war work. If I have failed to tell you anything you would like to know, just let me know.

With love, your cousin,
Ellen Kittrell Clark
