Mema Gregory hill at the extreme upper end of Peyton's Creek is name after Jemima Willis Gregory.
lis Gregory.
The following is an excert from article was printed in March 3, 1949 andlater reprinted Novem ber 4, 1976.
ted Novem ber 4, 1976.
The Mima Gregory Hill takes its name from Jemima Willis Gregory. the wife of Ambrose Gregory , the son ol Bry Gregory, our ancestor and our great-great grandfather. Ambrose evidently married Jerima abo ut 1812 and died rather young in 1827, leaving his widow with a large number of children, nearly all of whom were too small to do much toward making a living. She resided in the hollow just south of the hill, striving in adetermined manner to make a living for her children. The writer once found at Carthage a record of the sale of the personal property of her late husband. In that day and time, l aws exempting certain property from the claims of creditors were unknown, and we were once told how that onthe day of sale, Aunt Mima was sick and in bed. The pillow under the head of this sick widow and mother of a large number of children was put up and sold at auction. However, she managed to hold the farm lands and also managed to make a living for herself and children, rearing a large family to manhood and womanhood . On one occasion In February perhaps 115 years ago, she had "tapped" a number of maple trees or as they are commonly called, sugar trees, and had troughs, dug out of wood, under the place chipped in the trunk of the trees. On one warm night, she knew that the trees would be "running;" that is, the sap would be flowing and would be lost if she did not get to the grove in time to gather it up as it flowed into the troughs. Wolves were common then and lanterns were unknown. So Aunt Mima gathered the numerous offspring with her and set out for the grove of sugar trees, about a quarter of a mile from the home. She then built a big fire, placed the children about the fire and admonished them not to leave it. She then took a torch, made of strips of scaly, hickory bark, tied it together, lighted it and set out to visit the' running trees, gathering up the water in perhaps a piggin or some other sort of rude pail. The gleaming eyes of the many wolves that then infested that section could be seen in nearly every direction, but they were afraid of the flames and would not approach this brave, pioneer woman, who never heard of federal relief. By and by with her pail of th esweet water, she would return to the fire where her children were, deposit the sap gathered from the dripping trees, in an iron kettle and then leave her children again to visit other troughs and gather up the sweet liquid that later would be boiled down and made into a delicious syrup or even into a tasty kind of sugar. The howls of wolves filled theair, but Aunt Mima had to have food for her children and buying sugar in that distant day and time was virtually out of the question. This grove then covered the long, narrow field just above the present home of H. M. Kemp and the writer seldom passes by this place without thinking of the bravery, the tremendous self-sacrifice of pioneer women and of the honorand credit due them for establishing homes in a wilderness , of being really and truly help meets, of the many, many hardships that they faced without a murmur and without self pity, The women of today have not perhaps a hundredth part of the hard times those poor women had. Aunt Mima's husband,' as we have also stated, was Ambrose Gregory.
e without thinking of
From Cal's Column: "The Mima Gregory Hill takes its name from Jemima Willis Gregory....She resided in the hollow just south of the hill. Peyton’s Creek ... rises at the Highland Rim, its westernmost headwaters being in the vicinity of the Nima Gregory Hill, seven miles east of Lafayette; and the easternmost part of Gibbs Cross Roads, some twelve miles east of Lafayette. This is a historic stream upon which some of the earliest settlers of what is now Smith County built their log cabins in early days."
