(born 1893) Fannie Mae Livingston May 29th 1893 – January 15th 1984 Into the Life Fannie Mae Livingston was born on May 29, 1893, to Alexander and Mary Frances Livingston in Montgomery County, North Carolina. She was the oldest of six siblings. Fannie had three children: Bradley Livingston (born 1911), Annie Livingston (born 1918), and Erion Livingston (born 1924). Tragically, Eron passed away as a baby in 1925 from pneumonia. Fannie lived with her parents, siblings, and children in Troy, North Carolina, until 1927, when the family relocated to Norwood, North Carolina. Throughout her life, Fannie was a dedicated worker. While living in Troy she worked at the Capelsie Mill. In Norwood, she worked at Collins and Aikman Mill. The fathers of Fannie's children are believed to be members of the Poole family from Randolph County. Upon Fannie’s passing in 1984, her granddaughter Shelia, uncovered that Annie's father was Horace Poole . It remains unclear whether Fannie and Horace were ever in a relationship. Additionally, there is a longstanding rumor that Bradley's father was David Franklin Poole, Horace’s brother, though this has yet to be confirmed.

Click the box below to access the interview: Fannie Livingston Interview (1970s) Fannie lived in many homes throughout her life. In Troy she lived on Capelsie Road (now Livingston Lane). When moving to Norwood in 1927, the first house Fannie lived in was a mill village home that she shared with her parents, siblings, and children. The family had to move to several different houses within that same mill village due to frequent renovations. Fannie's last home was at 228 Doody Ave, Norwood, North Carolina 28128.

She lived to be 90 years old. When I asked people about Fannie, I often got the same response that she was a "Pistol", in that she had a strong personality. Born at a time when women had limited opportunities outside the home, she defied societal norms by becoming a lifelong mill worker. The textile industry was grueling, with long hours and physically demanding labor, yet Fannie remained dedicated to working, demonstrating her immense independence. Everyone seemed to have a lot of respect for her and admired her greatly. At the time of her death, she had four grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.

Click here to view profile Boyd Jackson August 11th 1929 – September 4th 2010 Benjamin Boyd Jackson was born in Banks County Georgia on August 11th 1929 to Mittie Lou Ausburn. It was believed by most that Claude Jackson, husband of Mittie Ausburn, was the father of Boyd Jackson; however, after DNA testing, through the son of Lucille Jackson, it has been determined that Claude Jackson may not have been the biological father of Boyd, rather it was a man by the name of "Luther Huttie Watson". This was apparently known to a select few, including Boyd Jackson's son, Ronnie Jackson, who told me that Luther "Luke" Watson, was his biological grandfather and that his father, Boyd Jackson, always knew this. It is unknown why or how the relationship between Luther and Mittie came to pass, but it is speculated that Claude Jackson may have been unable to have children. Boyd was originally named after his maternal grandfather, Benjamin Ausburn, whom he was quite fond of growing up. He said his grandfather, Benjamin, was the strongest man he ever seen. He would cut down trees with only an axe, never a saw. He could plow a mule all day long, stopping only for a glass of water. Boyd had one younger sister, Lucille who was born in 1932. He also had a much older half-sister, Bertie Mae Ausburn. Boyd's mother, Mittie, became very sickly. With Claude working the farm, she wasn't able to care of Boyd and Lucille by herself. Bertie Mae, would pick up Boyd and Lucille on Sunday afternoon and keep them at their house until Friday afternoon so they could go to school. So Boyd was essentially raised by Bertie Mae and her husband, Harve Deaton. Mittie Jackson died on July 6th, 1941. Before she passed, she pulled Harve Deaton aside and asked him to take care of her children. Harve promised that he would take care of them as long as they would stay with him.
