Salathiel Oral Lawson, Rex McGinnis's grandfather, was the only one of William Lawson's ten children who went to Texas. His mother Eliza Marshall, the daughter
of Francis Marshall was buried at White Oak Cemetery in Ritchie County, two miles
east of Pullman, WV on County Rt. 9. Salathiel's grandfather Theopolus Lawson came
from Scotland to Virginia and married Rebecca Russaw, possibly the daughter of a
wilderness surveyor and an Indian woman. Salathiel married Elmina Meredith, daughter
of Job Meredith, who had joined her parents' Seventh Day Baptist Church when she
was 18. In 1880, Salathiel and two teenaged sons were farming in Ritchie County.
They moved to northeast Travis County, Texas a few years later. Salathiel's daughter
Addie Lawson came to Texas in 1890 with her husband Enoch Marsh McGinnis. Rex, Delsie
and Kittie used to visit their grandparents in Austin in the early 1900's. Kittie wrote from
college that Elmina Meredith had saved up 13 chickens for Kittie's visit and comments, "Think
of it! She surely expects me to eat chicken." Salathiel died in 1910 and Elmina died in 1912.
