249. Julia Emmory Otey (Mary Emma Herndon , Archilaus Mitchell Herndon , Ann Reed Perkins , Archelaus Mitchell , John , William , William ) was born on 15 Dec 1871. She died on 17 Mar 1929.

From her death notice in the Hale MO newspaper:
She was born December 15, 1871 on a farm near Carrollton Mo (sic) - the "farm" at the time of her birth was actually a plantation known as Herndon Hill.

She was educated in the Carrollton Public Schools, and graduated high school with the class of 1889.

September 24, 1891 she was united in marriage with Arlie Cleveland. They resided in Carrollton for two years, moving then to a farm near Hale (Mo) where they have since made their home.

She was a member of the Hale Baptist Church. A lady highly respected and esteemed by all who knew her. Funeral services in her memory were held from the Willis Brother's Funeral Home, Tuesday morning at 11 o'clock; conducted by Rev. E.C. Vanderpool/assisted by Rev. T.J.West of Carrollton. Interment was made in the Oakhill Cemetary (Hale?)

Note from her Grandson Harold W. Cleveland:

She died about 1929. I was too young to know much about her except that she was a kind and generous person to me. She was also quite strict and would brook no "sass". One of the first "big" words I learned was from her oft repeated statement to me;"young man! Don't you contradict me!" She would not allow my Grandad to smoke in the house, and was firmly set against his (or anyone's) drinking (even of a social nature.)

One of her favorite books was a copy of Tenneyson's complete works, as of this writing(1/2/94) it is in my possession. Inside the front and back covers are penciled repeated references to Alie Cleveland made in 1888, the most telling being: "AC is the cutest boy in the United States". Though outwardly strict and proper, she obviously had depths of emotions which were rarely revealed.

I loved her dearly!

Julia married Arlie E. Cleveland, son of Seneca Cleveland and Mary Hughes, on 24 Sep 1891 in Carrollton, Carroll Co., MO. Arlie was born on 25 Oct 1870. He died in 1953 in Fort Scott, Bourbon Co., KS.

Notes by his grandson Harold W. Cleveland:
Grandad had been a playboy in his youth and I suppose he never entirely recovered. .(The last time I saw him he was in his 90's and still enjoyed a good time.) His father had owned THE Livery Stable in Carrollton, MO. This might compare roughly to owning the only rental car service at Lambert Field in St. Louis in the 90's.He was always wonderful in my eyes - even after I was old enough to realize that he was pretty much of a reprobate (but what a loveable reprobate). I recall our time together in his hotel room in Hannibal when both of us had come for my dad's funeral. I was a shiny new Ensign, and as soon as we got to his room the old man asked me, with a twinkle in his eye; (he always had a twinkle in his eye) "Boy, have you learned to take a drink yet?" I had, and we did! I used to wonder when I was small why grandad would always invite dad out to the barn to "show him something" as soon as we would arrive for a visit. Later I found out that the old rascal had put more energy into his grape arbor than into his corn crop. There was always a batch of grape juice on its way to becoming wine, and what wine it was! Grandad was the extrovert of the family. He always enjoyed people and a good time, and was always on the lookout for the latter - the former gravitated to him naturally. This, according to one Farrin Moore of Hale, MO. one contempory with my dad. "Despite the age difference, when the boys (dad's age) wanted to go down to the river for a few days, or sit in a duck blind for a weekend, they always invited Arlie (grandad). Harold was alright, but Arlie was more fun to be with".

Notes reported by his granddaughter Barbara Schweppe Hanes:
"Because Grandpa lived with us all of my life, I never had a baby sitter other than he or Kay.(her brother John K). I learned to play all kinds of card games, I received a lot of love from him and adored him. He loved to read magazines and I alweays walked to town with him to get the Saturday Evening Post. Life, Colliers and others. He also took me to see all the Disney films after Kay went in the Army. He loved radio and the shows on it. On Kentucky Derby Day, no one bothered him. He did drink, but mother (Vera Cleveland Schweppe) never really said this. Grandpa used to go in the taverns in downtown Fort Scott and when he received Welfare, she was really upset. She did look after him with clothes and attention. He died in a nursing home in 1955 in the next block from our house during my college years in California. Mother had his body returned to MO. Grandpa had a brother Burt Cleveland who was born in Missouri and died in Bozman, Montana. Somehow I remember Grandpa had gone west to either Oregon or Hawaii at one time. He loved books about the West and Mysteries."
End Hanes report.

A note penciled in 1888 in the front of a book once owned by Julia Otey makes the following observation; "A C is the cutest boy in the United States". Inasmuch as there are other annotations in that same book referring fondly to Arlie Cleveland, it would seem safe to assume the initials AC to be a reference to Arlie, by the love-lorn Julia to whom he was later married.

Arlie and Julia had the following children:

298 M i Otey Fairbank Cleveland was born in 1893. He died in 1896.

The obituary of Otey reads:
Otey Fairbank Cleveland, aged 2 years and 10 months, the oldest son of Arlie Cleveland died this morning at the residence of his grandmother, Mrs.Cooper (sic) on South Locust street. Mrs. Cleveland and her children had been visiting her mother (sic) for several days. The little boy has been complaining since Monday, but not until Wednesday evening was he taken violently sick with inflamation of the bowels, hence his death this morning was an unexpected and severe blow to his mother. Arlie is out at the farm near Bridge Creek, and didn't even know the child was sick. A messenger was sent out for him this morning to tell him of his son's serious illness. Soon after the messenger left the little fellow died. No arrangements for the burial will be made until Mr. Cleveland arrives tonight. In this sudden affliction the father and mother have the sincere sympathy of the community.

The foregoing is from a newspaper clipping which unfortunately was undated and gives no hint as to its source.
