Oliver Warren Hicks
b 15 October 1945 Brazos Co TX
d 11 December 1945 Galveston TX
His parents were Ishmael W Hicks & Florene Heath Hicks McGuire & she is in Plainview.

John David Windsor Jr
b 15 October 1838 Alabama
d 27 December 1914 Madison Co TX
John David Windsor Sr & Elizabeth Sherbutt were his parents.
In 1860 he married Elizabeth Barrow in Madison County. They had 9 or 10 children and 8 are buried in Plainview along with their parents. John was appointed Postmaster of the Searcy Post Office. The census of 1870 days he’s a “house carpenter” and lived in Bryan,Brazos Co TX and every one after that says Madison Co.. After the 1880 census all the children were born and/or died in Madison County so I’m assuming it was a community in Madison County.
I would love it if anyone could contribute any information about this community.

Birthdays for Saturday 10 October are as follows:
Mary Louise Drake
b 10 October 1940 Iola, Grimes Co TX
d 26 February 2019 Splendora, Montgomery Co TX

Her father was James Monroe Snook & mother was D Pansy Pilgreen and she is buried in Plainview.
She married Alton Lee Drake and they had 3 children. Alton and 2 of the 3 children are also in Plainview.

The other birthday was a bit of a mystery and I think I’ve figured it out.
Inf Son Gay (As listed in Find a Grave)
b 10 October 1914
d 13 November 1914
The picture shows the actual stone and it says Inf Son of Mr & Mrs S R Gay and the birth and death dates. The problem is that the only other Gay in the Cemetery was another baby and Find a Grave didn’t have any other information. As I searched through Ancestry I believe his parents were Stephen Ross Gay Jr & Minnie Birge. The 1900 census has Minnie as granddaughter living with a John & Eliza Windsor in Pct 3 Madison Co.
She married Stephen Gay in Madison County 9 January 1907 and I believe the baby girl, Otha Gay was theirs also. By 1920 they had 2 children and lived in Pct. 3 on the Plainview George Road. By 1930 they had 2 more children and had moved to Louisiana where he worked in the oil industry and they lived the rest of their lives in Louisiana.
