HULSEY, NEDOM W., merchant and farmer of Guin, Ala is a native of Carroll County, Ga and was born July 23, 1843. He is the third of a family of eleven children born to KENION and MILLIE (SANDERS) HULSEY, also natives of Georgia. His paternal grandparents were CHARLES and NANCY (PATE) HULSEY, and his maternal grandparents were JONATHAN and LUCY (ADAIR) SANDERS, all of the state of Georgia. In 1849 KENION HULSEY came to Alabama, and settled in Cherokee County, where he followed farming until 1856, when he removed to Jefferson county, and there passed the remainder of his days, dying in 1872, highly respected by all who knew him. NEDOM W HULSEY was reared in Alabama and here received his education. In 1862 he enlisted in Company D, Third Confederate Cavalry, Gen Joe Wheeler's Corps, and took part in the battles of Fort Donelson, Bowling Green, Murfreesboro, Nashville, Chickamauga, New Hope Church, Atlanta, and Franklin. He rose to the rank of captain, and served in that capacity for two years. While at home on furlough, he was captured in Jefferson county, Ala and was sent to Montgomery, and detained as a prisoner of war twenty-one days, when he was paroled. On his return home, he engaged in farming, which vocation he followed until 1876, when he became a merchant at Guin, in which business he still continues, in conjunction with farming. He is still the owner of 200 acres of good land in Jefferson county; he owns beside five building lots in Guin, and his store is well stocked; he does a thriving trade, which justifies him in placing some of his surplus capital at interest. Mr HULSEY has been twice married. His first wife, whom he wedding in 1868 was Miss SARAH A, daughter of Nicholas Sanders of Alabama and to this union was born one child, Paralee. For his second wife, Mr HULSEY chose Miss MARGARET, daughter of MOSES EDES, of the same state, and this marriage has been blessed with one child, JULIUS. Mr and Mrs HULSEY are members of the Missionary Baptist Church, while he is a Mason in good standing. He began his business life at the age of twenty-one, without any capital; but strict application to business, economy and fair dealing, have brought their reward. In politics he is a democrat, and though he aspires to no political office, he exercises his franchise toward the election of good and capable men to the various offices of the county and state, within the gift of the people.

IN MEMORY OF N W HULSEY

The subject of this sketch was born in Carroll county, Georgia, July 23, 1843. Moved to this State while young, was married to Miss Sallie Sanders in 1868. Had two daughters born to them, one of whom is Mrs Paralee Robbins, who lives at Dora, Ala. Bro Hulsey lost this wife by death, and after three years married Miss Margaret Eades. Two sons were born to this union, one of whom (Julius) with his mother lives at Guin. After two years of suffering God took Bro Hulsey to that home where there is no more sickness or death on Febuary 19, 1916. In the passing of Bro N W Hulsey Guin has lost one of her best citizens, the family the kindest father and husband to be found, the community at large a bright light, the church an exemplary Christian life. Brother Hulsey was converted and joined the Baptist church at the age of 39. He was of the old Southern Robert E Lee type of manhood. Firm and his convictions, outspoken in his opinions and yet kind and courteous to all. Strictly honest, truthful, and simple in life. He hated shams of all kinds, falsehood, deception, hypocrisy and dishonesty. He had a kind word for every one, & favorite among the children. He carried sunshine with hi everywhere he went. This made him loved and appreciated by all who knew him. Bereaved one, do not think of him as dead, but as having passed out to the better land, the home not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. He leaves one daughter, one son, a wife and four brothers to mourn his death. Two brothers moved to Texas some years ago and have not been heard from in several years. If they are living there are six brothers still living May the relatives and friends find in Jesus a balm for all their wounds, a solace for all their troubles. Written by his pastor, A N Reeves.
