Anecdote | Egbert was born July 16, 1858, in Bexar County, Texas, and moved to Rains County, Texas, with his parents in 1867. His name also was changed to Trumble from Turnbull at the same time his parents changed theirs when they left San Antonio. He spent the better part of his life living and farming in the immediate area where his father settled near the present site of the Lake Tawakoni Dam, andmanaged to accumulate a sizeable farming and stock-raising operation in the Sabine River Bottom. Along with his sizeable farm, he also raised a large family of rather unruly boys. By the time World War I came along, Egbert's sons were in their late teens and early twenties. The boys, true to their heritage, had managed to create a name for themselves for being outspoken, hot-tempered, and unwilling to back away from a confrontation. Indeed, they tended to seek out controversy, and being talented in the arts of debate and fist-fighting, along with their tendency to insult people whom they disliked, they more or less had their way. They were not bullies by any means, but neither did they tolerate bullies. This intolerance put them at odds with many of the institutions of the day, including the local law, the local courts, and others. These institutions, when translated, spelled Ku KIux KIan at the time. Unable to intimidate or bully the Trumbles, the Ku KIux KIan, under the guise of the federal government's Sedition Act, simply framed a charge of Conspiracy against Egbert, Joseph, and John, and railroaded them into jail. They served only six months of a year term, and were later pardoned by the President of the United States. In order to discourage the boys from avenging themselves against the cowards who lied in order to frame them, Egbert sold all of his holdings in Rains County, and moved to Tom Green County, Texas. By the time the Great Depression arrived, agriculture in the country was slready in a depressed state due to drought and other problems. When the Great Depression came along, the price of cattle was so low that their sale price would not cover the transportation cost from San Angelo, Texas to the market in Fort Worth, Texas. Consequently, Egbert lost his ranch and livestock, and moved into town. He died in San Angelo on June 18,1936. Egbert was named after his grandfather on his mother's side ofthe family, Egbert Aswel Meaders. He married Grace (Dodie) Bibb, and they parented eight children2 |
