Notes:
Herbert Calvin Horne, Sr., was born on Jan 8, 1909 at Milton Farms in Disputanta, Virginia. Very little is known about him until his teenage years. *** Check with Landon for younger years In his senior year of high school at Waverly High Schools, he came home one day and told his father that he might as well give him a whipping now because he wasn't going back to school for another day if he had to continue taking chemistry under Mr. Level, because he embarassed the kids that he didn't like and showed favoritism to certain of his cronies children in the class. At this point Calvin Horne quit school and went to work on his daddy's farm for several years. Frank Pulley, a lawyer and businessman came to Calvin and asked him if Calvin would run his store (Lindsey's Store). Calvin took over the running of the store and after a few years, Frank Pulley asked Calvin if he would like to buy the store. Calvin bought this, his first store and ran it for many years. Calvin borrowed the money from his mother and she loaned him the money from what he had been paying her for room and board. She had never spent it but kept in in her trunk in the upstairs bedroom at the farmhouse. The trunk was between the two beds and under the front window. This made a nice down payment on the store and it took Calvin about five (5) years to pay off the rest of the loan to Mr. Pulley. He sold this store and build Horne Sales & service across the road. This new store sold Chrylser/Plymouth cars and tires for the lumber yard people. He had a small grocery, but only sold limited items, mainly for workers to make lunches with. Calvin never mailed a bill. He kept a little notebook that he listed the people he gave credit to. And he never had a customer leave town owing him a bill, even though he never mailed out one. He had one family, with several small children, that he gave credit to, repay him with several musical ukelins to settle their account before they moved to Suffolk. This was Mr. Lupton. One would have paid the bill, but Mr. Lupton insisted he take both. Joan Howard (niece) still has one of these ukelins and Martha Jane (his daughter) has the other one. It should be noted at this point that one of the very few faults Calvin had all his life was a penchant for fast cars. At one point Preston Harrell, the mayor's son, bet Calvin that he could be in Wakefield before Calvin. Calvin then left someone in charge of the store and he and Preston left for Rt. 460 to start the race. Someone squealed to the town cop and he was sitting on the road waiting when Calvin was in front of Preston and saw the town cop. Calvin was able to slow down in time, but Preston hadn't seen the cop and passed Calvin in a blaze of speed, went passed the cop and was going so fast the cop couldn't even clock him, however Preston realized his fat was in the fire and had better stop before things got worse. In another incident, Calvin driving a red car actiually outran the police coming back from Petersburg. He had passed the policeman and the police started chasing him. Calvin managed to take a cutoff on a dirt street behind the old train depot and the cop never saw him and lost Calvin. When he hit the railroad tracks by the depot, Calvin's car went airborne. Calvin never was one to take his time going from one point to another. One one occurrance Calvin Horne was carried upon the wings of angles while driving his car. Preacher Harrell was having a revival in Waverly Baptist Church. Now, Preacher Harrell lived in Claremont and Calvin had arrived at the church ready for the revival meeting, when he was asked where the preacher was. You see, the preacher didn't have a car and certain members were to bring him on given nights. Well, this was Calvin's night and he had forgottten. Calvin made it to Claremont and back and the revival was only 20 minutes late. To this day, people swear that Calvin and the good Lord straightened out all those curves on Rt.40 to get the preacher to the church on time. To this day the 18 to 20 minute run from Waverly to Claremont and back hasn't been beaten. The preacher told Calvin not to worry that the lord was on their side. Calvin didn't remember the ride to Claremont and was 12 miles one way on a crooked curbved road with two small bridges over the Blackwater swamp. In his early teen years Calvin was dating a girl that lived across the road from his families farmhouse, named Evelyn Chesson. She was in love with a boy that had gone in the Navy and Mary Virginia (sister) knew this. She didn't want Calvin dating this girl. One day Calvin came home, put his car keys on the kitchen table and went upstairs to change to take her to a movie in Petersburg. Mary Virginia took his car keys and went out in the yard, yelled up to Calvin to look out the window. She told him she had his car keys and wasn't going to give them back to him since Evelyn Chesson was using him. Calvin yelled for her to hush as he didn't want Evelyn to here Mary. Mary then ran to the outhouse and locked herself and Calvin's car keys inside. Calvin was begging Mary Virginia for the keys and even offered a $5 bill to put the keys on the porch. Mary decided that $5 was worth more than Clavin making a fool of himself over the girl and gave him back the keys. Within a month's time Clavin took Evelyn Chesson to a dance and her boyfriend (Gwaltney Raines) came home on leave, came to the dance, claimed his girl, and Calvin was left standing at the dance, sans girl. Calvin was so mad he tried top run people off the road and when he got home Mary was able to say 'I told you so'. While living in Waverly, Calvin was a member of the Ruritan Club and Rotary Club. Mary Jane Sheffield was born and raised in the house behind the store and Calvin had known her ever since he bought the store. After Calvin bought this store they used to talk over the fence between the store and her house and very soon one thing led to another and they became husband and wife, on June 15, 1940. This was one week before his sister's birthday and her graduation and she was furious with him for not waiting. Of course, Calvin was one of those who used to spoil Mary Virginia. They were married in Waverly Baptist Church, by Rev. Albert Harrell in a small intimate ceremony. Mary Jane didn't have any attendenants and Calvin didn't have a best man. They left and went to New York for the World's Fair for their honeymoon. They stayed with Cyrus & Effie Leap. They also went to Niagra Falls during the honeymoon. When they returned they stayed at Herbert & Mary Horne's farm house until they got an apartment in a house next to the Baptist Church. HC, Jr., was born while they lived in the apt. They then bought a house on West Main Street. It was small brick bungalow with 2 bedrooms downstairs. Martha Jane was born at this house. Mary Jane worked from her teenage years through this time as a waitress and hostess at the restaurant at the corner of Main Street and Rt. 460. She was also choir director at the Waverly Baptist Church. She is remember by everyone as being very beautiful, quiet and loving. During this time Calvin sold H.C. Horne Sales and Service and he and Bob Clark bought Waverly Feed and Seed on Main Street.Note: Mary Jane's father, Cleveland Sheffield was murdered when she was younger. He was the paymaster for Gray Lumber Company and disappeared on a Friday afyternoon, when he was on his way with the payroll to pay the employees. His body was found three weeks later in Blackwater Swamp. The murderer was never apprehended or identified. The family continued to live here until after Mary Jane passed away, shortly after Martha's 3rd birthday. Mary Jane died in January 1951. Mary Jane died from Cirrhosis of the liver, even though she never drank alcohol. This was possibly cancer instead as cancer wasn't widely known at that time and the symptoms were the same as Herbert Horne's stomach cancer. His sister Mary Virginia spend the first six months after Mary Jane's death with Calvin to look after the children and take care of the house. He was able to obtain a Baptist minister's widow from Richmond as a nanny for the children. She was very rough on both H.C. Jr. and Martha, and Calvin ended up having to take HC, Jr. to the store with him. Calvin fired her later. Calvin also sold Massey Ferguson tractors for Surry Implement Co and later sold John Deere tractors for Dudley Robertson Tractor Co. Shirley James Johnson remembers that Calvin could sell anything. He was a born salesman. He met Glayds Bradshaw and married her in 1952. From this marriage was born his third child, Catherine Denise Horne, on September 12,. Calvin then bought the big 2 story white house on Main Street. This had a garage and a side stable that held the pony he got for H.C. and Martha. Of course, all the rest of the nephews and nieces had to ride also. This probably contributed to the pony having a sway back. Every Christmas Calvin and H.C. used to set up a model train that ran all around the living room at this house. This was a tradition for as long as I can remember. We used to put christmas presents on the train and ride them around the room. The parlor of this house was off limits to us kids and was used for company only. The marriage bwtween Calvin and Gladys was not destined to work and they divorced in ?????. Calvin, in partnership with Richard Spain, next purchased a grocery in Petersburg, Va. He stayed there until one of the assistant managers started taking the profits home in groceries. Calvin never prosecuted him and sold the store. He then came to Richmond and lived with Linwood and Mary Virginia Howard. While living here in Richmond he sold Chrylsers and Plymouths at the dealership at Belvidere and Broad St. During this time his son H.C., Jr. went into Demolay and went through the Order and became A Master Councilor of his chapter. It is said that bad things come in three's. This has centainly been the case in Calvin's life; Mary Jane's father died as a young man, Mary Jane died as a young woman and his son H.C. Jr., died as a young man, on Calvin's 68th birthday. For one so honest and caring as Calvin was, he was followed by bad luck with those he loved so much. About a year after coming to Richmond, Calvin bought a grocery store in Thornsburg and the family moved into a house trailer next to the store. I remember that at one point when I was visiting that Calvin decided that H.C. Jr., needed to loose some weight, so he made him dig a drainage ditch all the way around the trailer without stopping. Well, Calvin looked at the ditch HC was digging and decided that it wasn't deep enough, so this drainage ditch turned into being a 3' deep ditch and HC literally sweated buckets digging this ditch. He was so tired that he didn't even think about food that whole day. He did however drink several BIG coke bottles full of water. After this, H.C. started dieting in ernest and lost a most of the extra weight he was carrying around. I guess that he was afraid Calvin was going to make him dig another ditch and he never put the weight back on again. Calvin sold this grocery and moved to Hanover Courthouse where he opened another grocery that was called the Hanover Market. The house was next to the market and had a fenced in yard. His mother lived there with him in 1964 and stayed there for quite a few years. They had a pond out back and an old Packard in the garage that he had received in payment for a customers bill. While there in Hanover Courthouse the great family race took place one year, between Calvin, Linwood Howard, Tommy West and Bob Cowdin. Calvin was driving HC's GTO, Linwood had the old blue Oldsmobile, Tommy had a State Police cruiser and Bob was driving a small sportscar. The race started on U.S. 301 in front of the store and went to the bridge just North of the Courthouse. Tommy, in the State Police cruiser was the winner although Calvin wasn't too far behind.
A finer, more Christian man would be hard to find.
(Medical):He had 3 heart attacks over 20 years and an ulcer
Medical:
Had a cardiac by-pass
Residence:
They had a trailer beside the store. The store is still there. One day Calvin decided that HC needed to lose weight, so he made him dig a 2' ditch around the trailer and then fill it back in. All this was because HC loved his moon pies and cartons of milk (and a lot of other sweets) and put on a lot of weight. HC never went back to a lot sweets again and retained his much lower weight.

Notes:
Herbert Raines Horne married Mary Elizabeth Goodrich. Herbert was born in Prince George County, Virginia on December 26th, 1880 and died on September 3rd, 1956, at age 75. He was the son of Zachary Taylor Horne and Ellen Augusta Raines. Herbert was one of four (4) children. He has one brother Arthur Lee Horne and two sisters, Effie M. and Blanche L. Horne. Note: Original Farm in Disputanta may have actually been in Sussex County. Mary Elizabeth Goodrich was born in Surry County, Virginia on August 18th, 1884 and died on Jun 10th, 1976 at age 92. She was the daughter of Benjamin Taylor Goodrich and Ella Gertrude Booth. She was one of eight (8) children. She had three brothers, James Elliott, Glen, and Benjamin Taylor Goodrich, Jr. and five sisters, Stella Gertrude, Claudia Leathy and Nannyt T Goodrich. Both she and Herbert are buried in the family plot at the Waverly Cemetary, in Waverly, Virginia. Very little is known about Herbert's early life as a young man. We do know from family members that he was a fun loving, teasing, mischievous and humorous man. He was also a devoted husband, loving and hard working father. He spent his life as a farmer and loved the land. In his earlier years he was engaged to Nanny Goodrich, however this didn't work out and he proposed to my grandmother, Mary Elizabeth Goodrich (Pinkie). He made a mistake and gave Mary the same ring that he had given to Nanny. This didn't set well with Mary and she took the ring and rubbed it on the fireplace stone, thereby putting scratches in the ring. She told Herbert that she wouldn't wear the same ring that he had given to Nanny. Apparently, the scratches made it just slightly different and Grandmother was happy. The way that he and grandmother left to get married is a classic, just like a romantic novel. On a cold, blustery, snowy 28th day of January, 1907, Grandfather, at the stroke of midnight, placed a ladder against the side of the farmhouse and grandmother climbed down to go marry Herbert. They took the horse and carriage that he had waiting through three (3) feet of snow to the train station in Waverly, Virginia. There they took a train to Halifax, NC and stayed at the Roanoke Hotel, where they were married by J. L. Fenner, Justice of the Peace on January 28th, 1907. Mrs. W. A. Sater was both the proprietress and witness. Mary Virginia Horne Howard remembers that one of the kids went downstairs and told their mother, Ella Gertrude Booth Goodrich that Pinkie (Mary Goodrich) wasn't in her room. As the family started to search for her, her father Benjamin Taylor Goodrich, said,' there ain't no need to look for her, she's run away to get married, haven't you seen her making all these new clothes?'. Mary Virginia doesn't remember which of the kids told their mother about Pinkie (Mary) being gone. However it was the one that slept in the room with Mary Goodrich. Herbert and Mary owned a large farm on Rt. 40 in what is now the southern part of the town of Waverly, Virginia. During WW-II, when he wasn't harvesting and planting crops on the farm, he worked as a ship builder at the Willoughby Spit Marina in Norfolk, Virginia. He also served as a Deacon at the Waverly Baptist Church. He also served as a Forestry Service fire warden in Sussex County. We have photos of Herbert's award winning huge watermelons. His ever present dog spot was always at his side. Herbert and Mary sold the farm in 1945 to a man named Sheffield and moved to 318 N. Addison Street in Richmond, Virginia. In 1955, he was diagnosed as having stomach cancer. He was operated on at the Medical College of Virginia and after a lengthy convalescent period at his daughter Evelyn Horne Harris' home, Herbert passed away at MCV Hospital on September 3rd,1956 and was intered at Waverly Cemetery on September 6th,1956. Herbert and Mary's children are : 1. Herbert Calvin Horne, Sr. 2. Thelma Elizabeth Horne (West) 3. Evelyn Mae Horne (Harris) 4. George Landon Horne 5. Mary Virginia Horne (Howard). He was an avid hunter and fisherman and when living on Addison Street, took his grandchildren to Byrd Park lake to fish for bluegills and sunfish. One of my fondest childhood memories is the days we sat on the grassy banks beside Byrd Park lake, using bamboo canes to fish and just relaxing with my grandfather in the sun and waiting for the fish to bite.
Herbert's favorite song was 'The old Rugged Cross'. It is remembered by the kids that Mary Horne had to walk to Otterdam School (a little red school house on Rt. 40). The school was one room and was torn down when Mary Virginia was 8 or 9 years old (early 1930's). Mary Horne learned all the words in the Websters Dictionary, their meanings and how to spell each one, while at this little one room school. This served her later in life, as she played the "cashword" puzzle in the newspaper every week up to her death. She never mailed them in as gambling was on the top of her sins list. However, she never used the dictionary to look up the words, she knew them by heart. The school was just before the 1st bridge on Rt.40 after turning off from Phillip & Merle's road (Rt.312).
HISTORICAL NOTE: Amanda Wilkins was Herbert's black nanny at his birth and she was 1819 years old and spanked his bottom and made him cry at his birth. She used to always tell Mary Virginia this. She attended Mary Goodrich Horne with all five (5) of the kids and told that she had washed her diapers as a baby and had done the same with her father Herbert and that if she could live long enough to wash diapers for Mary Virginia's babies, then she would be ready to go. She did in fact wash Mary's first born daughter Barbara Joan Howard's diapers and lived until Joan was 2 years old. Amanda could remember the Civil War. Back when Mary Virginia was a child, when the farmhouse was new, the house hadn't been even cooked in before the owner died. The old house was moved down to the barn lot and had 2 rooms, one of which held the farm equipment and the other room was used as the kids playhouse with dolls and tea services. Amanda and her husband Jim Wilkins (both in their late 80's) lived on an adjoining farm and the owner expected Jim to get out and work exactly like the young workers. One day Amanda came and talked to Herbert and told him that the owners were going to put them out since Jim couldn't work as much as the other (remember he was in his 80's). This was the Clements farm. Herbert Horne then asked the kids if they would give up their playhouse and he and Mary Virginia took down the house, board by board and rebuild the house on a new cleared lot on the farm for Amanda (Aunt Mandy) and Jim. Herbert did not charge them anything to live in the house and when he sold the farm he insisted on a clause in the sales contract giving Amanda and Jim the right to live there until they died. Amanda would help Mary Horne with the wash and light work that Aunt Mandy thought she could handle. They were given any of the food from the gardens that they wanted free. Jim and Amanda had a son that wasn't worth a hoot, however, Herbert made a room on the 2nd floor for him since they wanted their son with them and he wouldn't work and couldn't live elsewhere. Herbert treated Jim and Amanda like family and they never went without until they died. Across from Herbert and Mary's farm was a small 5 acre farm that belonged to Mary's father (Benjamin Taylor Goodrich). It was an open field surrounded by woods on 2 sides and another farm on the 3rd side. They had chicken house and a barn for the horse, wagon and plows. Behind one of the tree lines was the Grey Lumber yard field that Mr. Grey had built small cottages on for the black workers at the plant to live in. One day while Herbert was harvesting the peanut crop, he had to go back to Willoughy Spit to work on a ship and the peanuts had to be left unstacked on the ground. Mary Horne woke up late at night to a torrential downpour and knew that they had lost all of the peanut crop. She went to the window to look out at the loss and what she saw was a field full of flashlights. The black workers for Grey Lumber had gotten up in the middle of the night and all went out to try and save Herbert and Mary's crop. Both were well liked among the workers in the area and were known for their fairness and open hearts. Many times Herbert and Mary Horne had given these workers boxes and other items to try and insulate their cottages against the drafty cold air that blew in. This little kindness was repaid in full by those that Herbert helped. One of the black neighbors, Rosa Wilkins had two girls and the youngest was named after my mother Evelyn Horne. Both of these girls later went to the Conservatory of Music in New York. The oldest of Rosa Wilkins daughters is Lena Horne, the famous singer. She used granddaddy Horne's last name as a stage name instead of her real name Lena Wilkins. Lena's mother Rosa used to bring all her money over to Mary Goodrich Horne to keep when she went on trips. Mary kept telling Rosa to count the money upon her return and Rosa kept telling Grandmother Mary Horne that if she thought she had to count her money, she wouldn't have brought it there to begin with. Honesty is a family virtue that is deep rooted in the Horne Family. N O T E : Herbert's sister Blanche L. Horne Weibert was killed when her oldest son Linwood Weibert was cleaning a shotgun in the kitchen and it accidentally went off and shot his mother in the arm. She went into the yard where she bled to death before anyone could help her.
Name is of German Descent and was originally spelled Hornie and was of Pensylvania Dutch in this country
Stayed at daughter Evelyn's home until the final hours (his request) when he was taken to MCV hospital, where he died.

Notes:
See Herbert for full notes.
When they moved to Richmond, She made Herbert build a high wooden privacy fence around the backyard and she kept chickens. I remember her in her apron chasing a chicken around the yard, so we would have fresh chicken for lunch one Sunday. She made the biscuits and dessert (banana pudding) and Calvin would always fry the chicken in an old high side cast iron skillet. There were family dinners one Sunday a month.
Grandmother slept in an old feather bed that she loved and wouldn't sleep in a regular bed at all. She kept her snuff can under the bed.
Grandmother by Faye Howard:
You asked me about things I remember about Grandmother too. Here it is. Grandmother would always crouch down to use the phone. She could touch her toes at 80ty. Her nick name was "Pinky". She loved to dip snuff, but she hid in her bedroom so we wouldn't see her spit. She loved to play Canasta, which she taught many of us to play, and taught us how to eat King Syrup mixed with butter on bread that was delicious. She was a homebody and kept the home very clean. She made a beautiful quilt with Granddad, Granddad's Dog and mule or horse, Thelma, Calvin, others on it chickens, flowers and so much more. She made it out of the old clothes and scratch material she found laying around. She was a very good sewer. Grandmother loved her flowers and bushes, she was on the quiet side but carried a big bat. When the children at Fox School would kick a kickball, bat a baseball or throw a basketball in her back yard she would run them out of the yard and later return them to the Principal after we played with them for a while. She would be so upset because the children would climb the fence, breaking it sometimes and killing her plants and flowers stepping or jumping on them. The children use to call her the Wicked Witch. Grandmother nor I ever forgot what I am about to tell you and she even talked to Mom about it when she was dying that she never forgot the day I stood up to her with my hands on my hips and told her, "I could be just a stubborn as she was", then I walked out of the house across the street by myself and bought me some candy and ate it before I walked back into the house to get my punishment for not obeying her. You see Grandmother, even when I thought I was too old for naps, made me take one. She would let Joanie go across the street and buy some candy when they thought I was asleep. I finally got tired of just pretending I would sleep and got up when Joanie came back into the house with her candy in hand. I told Grandmother I was going to get me some. Well, she said I was not unless Joanie took me across the street. Joanie decided she would not take me across the street until she was ready too. Then Grandmother said I could not go. That's when I said what I did and did what I did. Would I do it again. "Yes", even though my Daddy gave me the biggest and worse spanking of my life for not respecting my Grandmother and for not doing what she said to do, and I really couldn't go to school and sit down for a week. Grandmother felt so bad that the next time I came over she said, I am really sorry Faye that I told Linwood about everything. I really didn't know he would beat you like that." Of course, I am a Scorpio and we hold grudges for a long time but she knew that day that I was really hurt by the way she and Joanie acted but I forgave her for telling Dad. She wrote articles to the newspapers and I will always remember the one about the verse from the King James Version on, "Spare Not the Rod". I will look up that verse and let you know it as soon as I can. She was very political too and would speak her mind in articles she wrote to the paper. Lynn and Mary were also very political and wrote things. They learned this from Grandmother. She have premonitions. She called Mom early one morning and asked Mom if she had talked to me recently or heard from me. Mom said no and asked why. Grandmother said something is really wrong you should call her. Mom did and I told her I had a miscarriage and was going to tell her about it when I felt better. She told me Grandmother knew something was wrong and that was why she called her and told her to call me. Grandmother told me other times when she knew something was going to happen and they did. Grandmother was Grandmother, I loved her, accepted her and am proud she was my "Grandmother" when I got old enough to understand life a little better instead of through a child's eye that's when I could understand her better.
(Medical):She broke her hip at 88 years old and was up and walking within 2 years.

Notes:
Married:
The way that he and grandmother left to get married is a classic, just like a romantic novel. On a cold, blustery, snowy 28th day of January, 1907, Grandfather, at the stroke of midnight, placed a ladder against the side of the farmhouse and grandmother climbed down to go marry Herbert. They took the horse and carriage that he had waiting through three (3) feet of snow to the train station in Waverly, Virginia. There they took a train to Halifax, NC and stayed at the Roanoke Hotel, where they were married by J. L. Fenner, Justice of the Peace on January 28th, 1907. Mrs. W. A. Sater was both the proprietress and witness. Mary Virginia Horne Howard remembers that the next morning, one of the kids went downstairs and told their mother, Ella Gertrude Booth Goodrich that Pinkie (Mary Goodrich) wasn't in her room. As the family started to search for her, her father Benjamin Taylor Goodrich, said,' there ain't no need to look for her, she's run away to get married, haven't you seen her making all these new clothes?'. Mary Virginia doesn't remember which of the kids told their mother about Pinkie (Mary) being gone. However it was the one that slept in the room with Mary Goodrich and my guess would be Stella, as they were the closest of the kids and remained so throughout life.

Notes:
The 1900 census for Waverly show Ellen A. (age 440 as a widow and living in Waverly, VA.
The Horne and Raines farms were adjacent to each other (1860 census (95 & 96))
UNABLE TO FIND ALMOST ANY RECORDS ON HIM, ANYWHERE.
He died before 1900, as his wife was listed as a widow on the 1900 census.
Ellen Augusta Horne was in Eastern State Hospital in 1910 and listed as a widow. So his death was prior to 1910.
The Petersburg newspaper in 1874 listed his name as Zachariah Thomas Horne.The marriage was held at the home of Mrs. Cecilia A. Raines, by the Rev. Theo A. Hall. All were listed as being from Sussex County.
The 1880 Census shows him as a farmer in the Newville area of Sussex County, Virginia. That would put him very close to Waverly and there is a Baptist Church at Newville with an old graveyard. Other Hornes are buried there

Horne, son of Williamson T., b abt 1846. Married Ellen Augusta Raines, Oct 8, 1874 in Sussex, dau of E. Raines and C.A. children: Arthur L. Horne, b. abt 1876 Ellie I. Horne, b. abt 1878 Herbert R. Horne, b. abt 1880 this Zacariah T. was brother to my grgrgrandmothers, Elizabeth F. and Virginia A. look forward to hearing from you Jackie
