Andrew was the oldest child of Martha Feaster and William Colvin. Hedied in South Carolina and is buried there.
Andrew and Jemima lived about 11 miles from Chester and 2 miles fromFeasterville. They raise 13 children, 10 sons, 3 daughters of the sonsmarried Crosbys, who were all related, being sisters, cousins, or auntsto each other. One son, Petrie, who had been hit on the head by afalling tree, was never married. None of the children died underforty-nine years of age and eight lived to be over eighty.
Four years after the death of her husband Jemima sold her place tothe Simpsons, moved with her sons and daughters to North Louisiana. Shewas 68 years at the time. She was not tall and weighed nearly 200 lbs.She was a very intelligent woman an expert midwife. Her place is nowowned by her granddaughter, Alma Hogg. ( It is now passed down to herkids)
Her grandson Calhoun C. Colvin, son of Ainsley H. Colvin, used tostay with his grandmother, Jemima, when a boy. He says, "Grandmother wasan interesting old lady with a great deal of energy. she was a goodcook, inked simple wholesome food and was especially fond of honey. Incotton picking time she would make the little Negroes pull the cottonbolls off the stalk and bring the baskets to where she sat in her chair,so that she might pick out the cotton. Many times after she was overeighty years of age I walked with her 2 1/2 miles to the pasture to salther sheep. With her own hands she carded the wool from these sheep forthe Negro women to spin and weave into cloth."
She was a great Bible student and always kept her Bible near by.Preachers of the community consulted her in regard to the interpretationof the scriptures. She was not a member of any church, but inclinedtowards the Baptist faith.
Our house was about 200 yards from hers and when I was late goingover for the night, when always walked over for me. I can hear her say,"Come on Honey, let's get to our own roosting place."
Her nephew, Logan Petrie, from Kentucky once visited her. He was afine looking man. I remember him not only because he had fought in theMexican War, but because he was the first bald headed man I ever saw.
Jemima died while on a visit to her son, John Colvin, and is buriedat Mineral Springs. It is fitting that an open Bible is carved above theinscription upon her tombstone. (This stone has broke and been layed downand a new marker placed for the headstone)
