Shekina Lodge A.F. and A.M., of Festus had a banquet and public installation of
officers last Saturday night. The attendance of Masons was one of the largest
ever seen in this county. Lodge was opened in the hall, after which they marched
to the opera house where R.W. William RICHARDSON, D.G.M., installed the
following list of officers; J.P. SNEDEN, W.M.; J.G. MOORE, S.W.; D.B. FROST, J.W.;
F.A. BRICKEY, Treasurer; J.O. COVER, Secretary; A.MOORE, S.D.; W.F. HOLT, J.D.;
Jas. S. IRWIN and G. GARDNER, Stewards; and R. BRADY, Tyler. After the
installation a grand supper was provided in the opera house hall. There were
fifty plates, and the ladies and other outside guests filled the first table.
Mrs. PHILLIPI favored the company with a couple of songs, Miss Emma DONNELL
playing the accompaniments. Price's quadrille band was present, and after the
first tableful had eaten, music and dancing commenced. Our informant says that
it was one of the most pleasant affairs he ever attended, and he is an
old-timer.

This
record compiled by Nancy Hough (nhough22@gmail.com)
July 2010 from personal research, including wills, census records, books, and
records of many descendants sent to me years ago, many who have now joined their
ancestors. Some names may be spelled differently in other records, however, I
choose to spell them as close to the original record as possible.
These are only a few of the sources used to compile this family history:
John Compton Brickey Bible and Journal: Bible printed in 1815, and the earliest
known Brickey family history. John Compton Brickey wrote this family history in
1855, and it passed down (in 1852) through generations and it is now residing in
the Genealogy Room of the Roanoke Public Library, Roanoke, VA.
