McGILL
From Page 1-A
in the Civil War, but the beginnings
of the McGill clan arc a little
vague. Three McGills came over
from Ircland, onc settled in N.C.,
onc in S.C., and anothcr in
Pennsylvania. She's not sure which
of thosc brothers brought the
McGill line to Cleveland County.
"I wish I had asked morc ques-
tions when I was young," she said.
"It's funny how your family history
doesn't seem important to you until
you get a little age on you."
Mary's father, Boyce, inherited
the farm from one of those family
branches. "He didn't like farming
much," she says, "but he had to
make a living with such a large
family. The farm provided us with
a good living."
The farm also provided her with
an abundance of good stories, all
now recorded in her manuscript, or
soon to be.
"I was a little too young to help
at the corn shuckings," she writes,
"but I was always there. I remem-
ber when we shucked corn, there

were usually young couples help-
ing out. If a boy came across a red
car, it was tradition that he kiss his
sweetheart, or the girl that was
with him. Some of those boys used
the same red car of corn many
times during harvest. There weren't
that many red cars in a corn crop."
The McGills' first car, according
to Mary, was an Essex, with cur-
tains on the sides, but she says her
father courted her mother in a
horse and buggy. The first radio the
family owned was a battery pow-
cred model, when their house was
still without clectricity. "We
thought we were hot stuff with that
radio," she said.
Mary has never worked at a pro-
fession. "I didn't work outside the
home," she said, "because I never
decided what I wanted to do. I just
did family things and church things
and worked on the farm."
Today she fills her days with her
writing, church work, television,
visiting friends and her two surviv-
ing sisters. One is 81 and lives in
Roanoke and the other is 86 and
lives at the Stanley Total Living
Center. A cousin, Ellen Carpenter,

"Most of my activitics arc cen-
tered around the church,” she said.
“I'm a member of Boyce Memorial
ARP. I am a member of a circle
that meets once a month, and I be-
long to a singles group that meets
monthly, and I do some volunteer
work on occasion at White Oak
Manor. And even though the Lord
didn't give me a traveling mind-
