COLLINSWORTH FAMILY

[Note: According to the Texas Almanac 1998-1999, Collingsworth County was named for the Republic of Texas’ first chief justice, James Collinsworth. The name was misspelled [the 'g' was added] in the law.]

McKinney Courier, May 1895
The small pox epidemic in the community west of Plano has proven to be fatal and very sad with the Collinsworth family. The following is clipped from yesterday’s Dallas News:
Plano, Collin Co., Tex., May 21 - Tobe Collinsworth, 23 years old, whose parents live in Livia, Ky., died with small-pox this evening at the home of Mrs. Levi Collinsworth, five miles west of Plano, who lost her husband with the dreaded disease ten days ago. This is the fourth death in the Collinsworth families in the past month from this disease. Mrs. F. M. Collinsworth now has the disease and Mrs. Levi Collinsworth and 9-year-old daughter are the only ones that have recovered after taking same.

The McKinney Democrat, Thur, May 9, 1895, letter.    
There are 2 malignant cases of smallpox 5 miles west of Plano, Mr. Collinsworth's little girls.

The McKinney Democrat, Thur, June 6, 1895, Lebanon items.
The smallpox scare has quite abated, so that most of the people are breathing once more as they did of yore.
