ASHE, JUDGE CHARLES E.
Judge Charles E. Ashe is judge of the Eleventh District Court of Texas. When elected to the bench in 1900 he brought to the office a seasoned legal mind, a thorough experience as a practicing member of the Houston bar, and the esteem and confidence of the majority of his fellow citizens. After four years he was re-elected, and in 1908 was elected for his third term, on which he is now serving.
Born at Cedar Bayou, in Harris county, September 17, 1866, he is a Texan both by birth and by connection with one of the old and illustrious families of the state. His mother, whose maiden name was Sallie S. Jones, was the daughter of Anson Jones, the last president of the Republic of Texas.
Judge Ashe's paternal grandfather was a Tennessean and a lawyer of note, representing his district in Congress. In 1848 he brought his family to Texas and lived first at Galveston and later at Cedar Bayou. Richard G. Ashe, the father of Judge Ashe, was born in Tennessee, and has lived most of his life in Harris county, and for many years in the city of Houston, being at the present time in the employ of the city government.
After leaving the public schools, Charles E. Ashe began the study of law under the tutorage of his uncle, Judge C. Anson Jones, of Houston, and in February, 1888, was admitted to the bar. He was engaged in practice at Houston from that year until his election to the bench in 1900. His choice by the Democratic party for a place on their ticket was sanctioned by the bar in general.
Judge Ashe is a member of the Houston Business League, the Houston Turn Verein, the Thalian Club, and he also affiliates with Holland Lodge, No. 1, A. F. & A. M.; Texas Lodge, No. 1, K. of P., and the Tonkaway Tribe, I. O. R. M. He married, in 1902, Marian S. Szabo. Her father was the late Alexander A. Szabo, of Houston. Their one child, Charles Alexander, was born October 13, 1905. (Historical Review of South-East Texas and the Founders, Leaders and Representative Men, Vol 2, by Dermot Hardy and Maj. Ingham S.
