Born: October 9, 1882 in Stark City, MO
Married: December 25, 1902 to Phidellah
Vestal Weems (1877-1911)
Children:
Ruth Livvia Weems (1903-1973)
Vestal Harmon Weems (1905-1982)
Martin Etheldred Weems (1907-1979)
Glenn Phidellah Weems (1909-1984)

(McClain) Gold, Ruth (Weems) Cunningham, and Bonnie Cunningham
Pictured here probably with her
siblings and parents.
Autograph books from 1897 - 1901 in
Newton County, Missouri. Keep scrolling down to see transcriptions Sacca's
autograph book or click here to jump to her
husband, Phidellah's page and a scanned copy.
Sacca's Aunt Rose died in 1942 in Joplin, MO and had no
children. A box of her pictures and letters is now in our family and
probably was owned by Sacca during some time.
Rose Slocum Meredith's page has links to the pictures that need to be
identified and also some from the family of Jennie Slocum Siler and Jessie Siler
Harris in FL and CA.
Other pictures - Sacca Gold
Weems and other's have had procession of this box of pictures, so other families
pictures were in it. Here are 2 pictures that I need to get identified.
One might be Sacca and the other is some children in 1955 that might have been
Uncle Fat's (Lewis?) children.

Jan 6, 1900
Cousin Sacca
A woman’s love is
essentially lonely and spiritual in its
nature. It is the heathenism of the
heart. She herself has created the glory
and beauty with which the idol of
her heart stands invested.
Betsy’s Master.
Feb 6, 1900
Dear Cousin Sacca
Let us begin our heaven on earth and being
ourselves temped, let us be pitifill and considerate
and generous in judging others.
