The Lacy Family

The Lacy Sisters

John was born in Decaturville, Tennessee June 22, 1863. Around John's twentieth birthday in 1883, he moved to Lucas, Arkansas. He met and married Charlotte Cordie Lamb December 20, 1885. She was the daughter of Joseph Lamb and Louisa Madora Reynolds.

John was 43 when he died of typhoid fever August 25, 1906. He had eight children. Minnie was the oldest, twenty, and Hyrum was the youngest, ten months. Minnie was the only one married, and the rest were still at home.

Charlotte continued to farm. Every Sunday John's brother, Henry, would come over and line the girls up on what to do the next week. The bushwhackers were so bad that they would bring the bridles in the house at night to keep them from being stolen. Once they had a young colt and Great-Grandmother would hold the reins through the door all night to keep it from being stolen.

Mazel Mullins Warren remembers as a young girl walking with her grandmother to the Cedar-Grove Cemetery and cleaning the graves of Cordie’s mother, father, brother, and two children. Mazel says she was the best grandmother anybody ever had.

For a short period she was married to Lewis Mitchell, the father-in-law of her daughter, Hattie Mitchell.

Charlotte Cordie was living with her son Hyrum and wife Nellie in Glenpool, Oklahoma when she December 27, 1954.
