Born 19 Oct. 1852 in Monroe Co. MO, Robert Gwyn MITCHELL was the 3rd son and
\nfourth child of James Bourne MITCHELL and Martha Cowden DYSART. James Bourne
\nwas 31 and Martha was 27 at the time of Robert Gwyn’s birth.<\/p>\n

On 5 August 1891, in Macon Co., MO., Robert Gwyn, 38, married Lena Bell
\nCarhart who was 18 years his junior, born 22 March 1871 in Macon Co., MO. to
\nElliot CARHART and Margaret PETTIT.<\/p>\n

Robert, a lawyer, who is described as “having been called by the government to
\nbreak trusts” and a sunday school teacher, died 6 March 1909 in St. Louis, MO.
\nat the age of 56, his youngest son only being a year old.<\/p>\n

Lena, though only 38 at the time of Robert’s death, never remarried. She died
\n26 Nov. 1957 at Baldwin KS., age 86.<\/p>\n

Most likely is an error here but I find it curious that the April 4th 1910
\ncensus gives Lena as married, rather than widowed. For she would have been
\nwidowed nearly a year. And all other information is correct.<\/p>\n

Robert MITCHELL is given as having died in St. Louis MO. Saturday 6 March
\n1909.<\/p>\n

Robert and Lena had 7 children, 6 of whom reached adulthood:<\/p>\n

1.) Margaret Gwynette MITCHELL b. 11 Oct 1892. (Robert was 39 and Lena was 21.)
\nMarried Warner B. HAGAN 8 April 1917 when she was about 25 and he was about 26.
\nMargaret died 20 Dec. 1933 at about the age of 41. Warner, born 21 June 1891,
\ndied 19 Feb. 1954 at about 63. <\/p>\n

2.) Robert C. MITCHELL b. 9 March 1895 in Macon, Macon Co. MO. 22 March 1871
\n(Robert was 42 and Lena was 23). Married 15 June 1925, Katherine ZEISNEIS. He
\nwas about 30 and she about 29. Robert died in Sarasota FL., 28 May 1966 at
\nabout 71. Katherine, b. 7 May 1896, died 2 Feb. 1980 at about 84. Read a
\nnewspaper mention of Robert’s Honorable Discharge in the history section.<\/p>\n

3.) James Dysart MITCHELL b. April 27 1897 at Macon, Macon Co. MO., died 6 Jan.
\n1900. James Dysart’s obituary is in the history section.<\/p>\n

4.) John Carhart MITCHELL b. 9 Dec. 1901 at Macon, Macon Co. MO. (Robert was 48
\nand Lena was 30). John married Aileen WOODBURY on 1 June 1929. He was about 28
\nand she about 26.<\/p>\n

5.) Dorothy MITCHELL b. 18 Oct. 1903 at Macon Co. MO. (Robert was 50 and Lena

6.) Lawrence Carhart MITCHELL b. 23 April 1906 at Macon, Macon Co. MO. (Robert
\nwas 53 and Lena was 35), married Eleanor GOODSON on 11 May 1935. He was about

Robert G. MITCHELL
\nMacon<\/p>\n

Robert Swyn Mitchell of the firm of Dysart and Mitchell, is a son of James B.
\nand Martha C. (Dysart) Mitchell, and dates his birth in Monroe County,
\nMissouri, October 19, 1952. His father is a Cumberland Presbyeterian minister,
\nborn in Virginia, and his mother is a native of this state, and a sister of
\nBenjamin R. Dysart, one of the leading lawyers in Macon county, and mentioned
\nin preceeding pages of this work. The family came to Macon county in 1853,
\nbefore Robert was a yrear old, and his father was president of McGee College
\nfor many years, being now pastor at Kirksville.<\/p>\n

The subject of this notice farmed until seventeen years old, attending school
\nduring the winter terms, and then took a classical course in McGee College,
\nMacon County, and was graduated in 1874. Afterward he taught three years in
\nChariton and Macon counties, making quite a success as an educator. He read
\nlaw with his uncle, Mr. Dysart, already mentioned; was invited to the bar in
\n1989 and since August of that year has been of the firm of Dysart and Mitchell,
\nhis partner being his preceptor. He was county school commissioner for four
\nyears, his term expiring in April 1883.<\/p>\n

Mr. Mitchell is not only talented, but for a young man possesses a high degree
\nof culture. He is thoroughly devoted to his profession, diligent in his
\nstudies, as well as in his practice, eminently reliable and trustworthy, and is
\na rising young man. He holds a membership in the Cumberland Presbyeterian
\nChurch, and is living a life consistent with his Christian profession.<\/p>\n

James Dysart MITCHELL, the little 3 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Robt. G.
\n MITCHELL was taken suddenly ill Wednesday evening of last week with
\n dyptheria, and although all that medical aid and kind loving hands could
\n do was done for the little fellow,nothing could assuage his suffering,
\n and on Saturday morning at one o’clock he succumbed to the dread disease.
\n James Dysart was a bright, playful boy and he will be sadly missed by his
\n parents and little brother and sister, Robert and Gwynette. Yet with the
\n hope of the Christian they await the resurrection morn when they shall be
\n reunited in the Father’s house. A Scripture lesson and prayer was read at
\n the grave by Rev. R. T. CALDWELL.<\/p>\n

ANNIE HELM CHAPTER NSDAR
\nOrganized October 20, 1908<\/p>\n

HISTORY<\/p>\n

Anne Helm Chapter was organized by a group of 23 patriotic women on October 20,
\n1908, in Macon, Missouri<\/p>\n

Charter Members were: Louisa William Brock, Maude Dysart Brock, Ethel Coulter
\nBrown, Mary Craddock Doneghy, Kate Campbell Doneghy, Martha Prewitt Doneghy,
\nCarrie Stewart Duffy, Emma Turner Dysart, Susie Mitchell Guthrie, Mattie
\nBlincoe Howe, Hettie Coulter Lamb, Martha Gilstrap Matthews, Mary Anderson
\nMatthews, Corrine Matthews, Lena Carhart Mitchell, Lena Trowbridge Payson,
\nEmily Pipkin Simmons, Amy Simmons, Lucy Simmons, Mary Van Cleve, Hallie
\nWilkinson Wardell, Stella Turner Wilson, and Elizabeth Stickney Wilson.<\/p>\n

The name Anne Helm was chosen in honor of Mrs. John T. Doneghy’s great-great
\ngrandmother who assisted and sacrificed members of her family for the cause of
\nthe Revolutionary War.<\/p>\n

The Macon Public Library was founded on March 23, 1912, with Miss Sarah
\nLarrabee as librarian. It was located in the Howe Building opposite of the
\nJefferson Hotel. DAR members raised funds by having “Tap Day” and several
\n“Macon County Banquets.” The response to the library was so great that it soon
\nbecame too large for the Howe Store. The library moved several times until, in
\n1915, the trustees voted to build a permanent library. The Anne Helm Chapter
\npurchased the lot on the corner of Rutherford and Butler where the present
\nlibrary building is located.
\nThe Anne Helm Chapter was instrumental in forming the first Red Cross Chapter
\nin Macon and helped to raise funds to sponsor Herbert English, a volunteer for
\nambulance service in France during W.W.I.<\/p>\n

On November 11, 1934, a bronze plaque was unveiled at the Macon County Court
\nHouse to honor four Revolutionary Soldiers who are buried in Macon County. They
\nare James Howell, James Lynch, Bennett Tilley, and Nicholas Tuttle.<\/p>\n
