| 1563 | CARTER COUNTY - Millard “M.M.” Garland, age 81, of Carter County transitioned peacefully on Sunday, July 24th due to complications of cancer. He was fortunate to spend his final days in his home, surrounded by his family. Millard is survived by his beloved wife of 61 years, Judy Ann Garland, and his children Audrey Kelaher Briggs, Marvin Garland and his wife Angie, and Amy Garland; his grandchildren, Joshua, Alexandra, and Samuel Kelaher, Savannah and Sawyer Garland, and Dillon Andes; and two great-granddaughters, Aisley Kelaher and Harper Andes. Each of these lives were greatly enriched by his abiding love, unfailing support, and his ever-gentle strength. Millard is also survived by his beloved brother, Jess (Marsha) – with whom he loved attending Friday night football games, his dear sister Georgia Lyon and brother-in-law Dana Lyon, his beloved sister Margie Leonard, as well as many special nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by brothers Jack, Phil, and Ted Garland, as well as sister Marie Garland. The iconic “Garland Family” is known widely for their athletic prowess, tireless work ethic, and fierce love of family. Millard was born in Fork Mountain, NC on November 12, 1940 and moved to Carter County at the age of seven. His late parents – Arnold and Vista Garland – instilled in their eight children the traits of grit and humor, a characteristic legacy that thrives in their grandchildren and great-grandchildren. At Happy Valley High School, Millard was known as a tough opponent on the football field, a lover of fast cars, and a friend to all. While in high school, he met Judy Ann Patterson, who – at first sight – became the love of his life. Together, they created a life filled with devotion to each other and their three children, who each enjoyed a magical childhood. Always intent on providing for his family, Millard frequently held multiple jobs, including working for Raytheon Technologies during the Vietnam War, a contribution to defense so valued by his country, he was awarded a deferment from the war. In 1965, he was employed by Clinchfield (eventually CSX) Railroad, where he made lifelong friends, and enjoyed a 37-year career. After retirement in 2002, he and Judy lived “their best life” for more than 20 years, delighting in their home and six grandchildren. During retirement, Millard devoted extensive time and resources to his community and those less fortunate. He was an active volunteer with the Carter County Democratic Party, passionately advocating for social issues. He was especially proud of his 18-year service on the Carter County Election Commission, his service with the Shriners, and his 47-year membership as a Mason with Watauga Lodge #622. Millard will be remembered by all for his keen wit, his innate wisdom, his gentle spirit, and his extraordinary strength of mind and body. His legacy of a “life well lived” will continue to inspire family and friends to be kind, always. The family will receive friends on Saturday, July 30, from 11am - 1pm at Hathaway-Percy Funeral Home in Elizabethton, followed by a graveside service at 2pm at Roselawn Cemetery in Johnson City. Pallbearers are Jess Garland, Marvin Garland, Joshua Kelaher, Samuel Kelaher, Dillon Andes, and Sawyer Garland. | Garland, Millard Marvin (29455456)

| 1565 | Carter County marriage records show a June DeLoach marrying T.P. Russell on 9 Mar 1885. I belive that this is a mis-reading of the record, and that this should be Jane DeLoach. I have no evidence to substantiate this speculation. There is a marriage record in Carter County for the following marriage: Jane DeLoach to James Fair 24 December 1889 There were two Jane DeLoaches alive then who could have married James Fair, the Jane in the record, and a Mary Jane DeLoach, who was the daughter of John DeLoach, Jr., and Susannah Oliver. I conclude that Mary Jane DeLoach was the one who married James Fair based upon the following: Census records indicathe that the daughter of Thomas and Perlina was born in about 1853. These records indicate that Mary Jaane was born 1861-1865. The death record for Mary Jane DeLoach is: Mary Jane Fair died 20 December 1920, born 18 April 1865, parents were John DeLoach and Susan Oliver. Informant James H. Fair. Buried Hyder Cemetery. Record #270, 1920. | Family: Theopolus P. "Theo" Russell / Jane DeLoach (F1284)

| 1580 | Cause of Death: Diabetes complications SSN: 415-12-6355 Sam was probably named after Joseph Gervais. Joseph was a French-Canadian, later American, pioneer settler and trapper in the Pacific Northwest. Joseph joined the Pacific Fur Company, a venture owned by John Jacob Astor. After trapping throughout the Oregon territiory for the Hudson's Bay Company,[7] Gervais permanently settled on French Prairie at the site of what is now the town of Gervais. This is the area where Sam's father Joseph Alexander DeLoach came seeking employment between 1910 and 1920. It is more than a coincidence that Joseph named his first two sons Gervais and Astor. About a year after the DeLoach family moved to Johnson City, Tennessee, Sam officially changed his name to Samuel Carter, the name of his grandfather. Sam joined the Civil Conservation Corps after the DeLoach family moved to Johnson City. Following a tour of duty at the Morristown, TN, camp, he attended East Tennesse State Normal College for a quarter. He dropped out of college, and had a series of odd jobs. Following the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor, he was drafted into the Army. After reporting to Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia, for Basic Training, he found that he did not like Army life and decided to come home to Tennessee. After a short period at home, he was arrested for being Absent Without Leave, and returned to Fort Oglethorpe. Realizing that he was going to have to stay in the Army, he began applying himself rigorously to his military tasks, and was soon selected for Officer Candidate School (OCS). By the end of WW II, he had advanced to the grade of Major in the Transportation Corps. Following the war, there was an Army-wide reduction of force, and Sam was given the rank of Master Sergeant and retained on active Army duty. When the Korean War broke out, he was returned to officer status, and was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel. He retired at this rank in 1956. Following his Army career, Sam became a real estate salesman in the Monterrey Bay area of California. He did quite well in this business, but after several years, found the long hours and weekend work distasteful. He and June sold their home in Monterrey, and moved to Walnut Creek, CA. After a short stint in full retirement, he got a job as a security guard at the Oakland Army Depot. He retired from this job when he was in his early 60's. On the 1920 Johnson County, TN Census, he is listed as Gervais C. DeLoach. On the 1930 Johnson County, TN Census, he is listed as Carter DeLoach On the 1940 Washington County, TN Census, he is listed as Carter DeLoach 1950 Contra Costa County, California Household 1712 DeLoach, Sam C.
