The following was written by a child of Annie Jane Crumpler:
"The Crumplers lived out here about three miles from town (Winnsboro) when 'Annie' was born. Later they lived in the 'Big Woods' down in the Hepsibah Community, and from there to the home as we knew it. Mama (Annie) was born in 1868 and 11 years later Lizzie was born. I've heard Mama say she did the work of a grown person that 'Ma' got on badly, she 'Mama' made a chicken pie and Dr. Florence teased her about it. By those facts, I think they were at Maple Springs.
"The Crumplers and Dicksons were neighbors in the Big Woods and Asa and I believe they moved to Maple Springs in the late 1870's. They lived in Wood County until they moved to Maple Springs. Wood and Camp counties join close to where they lived at Maple Springs most of the land they owned is in Wood County, Texas."
The following obituary appeared in a local newspaper upon John Crumpler's death:
IN MEMORY OF MY FATHER
After an illness of four months, the immortal spirit of J.A. Crumpler left its tenement of clay, called a home by the angels of heaven in the quiet morning hours of April 27, 1926, surrounded by his loved ones and friends. His passing to the new and brighter life was as peaceful as the gentle zephyrs that fanned his brow--a fitting and most florious close to a long and useful life spent in going good to his fellow man and faithfully serving the God to whom he acknowledged all allegiance.
He was born in Alabama, September 26, 1865. Ten children blessed this union, eight of whom are living to mourn the going away of a loving father. He became a christian in early life; united with the Methodist church, and was a zealous and faithful member to the end. He was liberal with his time and liberal with his money, never allowing the obligations of his church to go unpaid. Maple Springs, the beautiful little church that stands among the oaks near his home, would not have been but for the liberality of this good man. It stands there today as a monument to his splendid christian life.
His work on earth is now finished and he is among the redeemed of the church above. We laid his body to rest underneath a bed of beautiful flowers, in the little cemetary that he had cared for so tenderly so many years. Servant of God, well done, Rest from thy loved employ; The battle's fought, the victory won, Enter the Master's Joy. Daughter
The inscription on his tombstone reads: His works were kindness, his deeds were love, his spirit humble, he rests above.

Susie lived at Maple Springs, Camp County, Texas before her marriage and Oscar lived at Leesburg, also in Camp County, Texas. They had gone together for about 1 1/2 years and were engaged about eight months. They were married at her home on Wednesday afternoon, December 28, 1892. All of the Methodist ministers had gone to conference, so Uncle Billie Harris, a Baptist preacher performed the ceremony. No one stood up with them, but everyone was invited to the wedding and to the
wedding supper.
When Mother (Susie) King was asked, she said that everyone stayed for the wedding supper and that instead of coffee and cake; they served a big meal. They spent the first night at his sister's, Mrs. Will Morris, a place near Leesburg, but waited until they were married to buy their furniture. They stayed at his sister's for two weeks, then moved into their home.
Her "hope chest" consisted of quilts, feather beds, and pillows and linens. Oscar came for her in his wagon and team and they loaded all of her things into his wagon.
They lived in Leesburg for about 18 years, then bought the farm at Ebenezer Community and moved there. All of their children were born at Leesburg. Jake and Bill the youngest, were six years old when they moved to Ebenezer.
Susie's wedding dress was yellow and her gloves were white kid four-button gloves.
For many years, Ruby (King) and Loujena King would take the children--all six and go to Mother King's for the church revival meeting. Loujena would play the piano, the little boys would pass the collection plate and they bolstered the
attendance for every service--morning and evening.
Mother King was proud for them to come and the children were surely forgiven for their unwillingness to leave their play in the pretty white sand surrouding the house and get bathed in the wash tub and dressed for church. Just as surely
Ruby and Loujena were forgiven for their vexations in accomplishing this feat.
Jake and Shep were able to get their vacations and go with us for the meeting but not often. It was customary then for the visiting evangelist to spend the nights at the parsonage then he and the pastor would eat dinner in the different
homes in the community. Mother King always "had the preachers" one day.
The day before, the yard was raked and every inch of the ground from the barn gates and the "outhouse" was swept. The vegetables were all gathered in and most of the meal was prepared in advance. The children were brushed up on their best manners and behavior and all were perfect when they came to the table, they bowed their heads for grace and all was going perfectly until the old preacher started eating his peas with his knife. This information was furnished by Loujena Sheppard King.
Susie had cancer of the larynyx and had her larynyx removed sometime before 1958 but she lived a long time afterwards. After this surgery, she could only talk in a whisper.
The following obituary appeared in a local newspaper.
