Sarah Anna Kimmel

Notes:

Notes from Carol E. Vaughan, great granddaughter, Lexington, KY.

In the 1900 Wayne County, MO Census, Anna was a widow with 6 children. She managed a boarding house and had 14 boarders at that time. Some of their property was sold for taxes in 1910 and it was around that time when Anna married M. A. Thompson and moved to Arkansas. Other members of her family (Kimmel) had already moved to the area around Pine Bluff.

Before 1910, Annie married M. A. Thompson and moved to Pine Bluff, AR where he owned a grocery store on Cherry Street. Walter lived with them for a while and Eddie lived most of his adult life with them. Genevieve Dunnegan Wilkes said that Eddie had a place behind his mother's house in Pine Bluff where he lived and worked as a painter. He is buried in Pine Bluff at Graceland Cemetery. Ted, struck out on his own at a young age and spent most of his life in Texas. Ida married Frank L. Baird in 1901. They lived for a while in Izard County, AR. Etta was still single in 1904 and living in/near Piedmont, MO (she did some traveling with her grandmother, Caroline Dunnegan Kimmel.) She later married Guy Hauser who worked for the railroad. After her death, Guy married his sister-in-law, Ida Dunnegan Baird, who was a widow by that time. They lived in Newport, AR, at least until the mid 1940's. Nothing is known about Charley. Annie Kimmel Dunnegan Thompson died in Newport, AR on December 3, 1944, at the home of Guy and Ida Houser. She was 84. Her death certificate shows that she had broken her hip which contributed to the cause of her death of an embolism. Since M. A. was 86 at that time, it would have been difficult for him to care for her. He (Magnus A. Thompson) was 93 when he died. He is buried in an unmarked grave next to his mother's plot in Graceland Cemetery in Pine Bluff, AR.
