FAMILY TREE OF JAS. MC CULLOH
The genealogy of Jas. McCulloah Esquire of Grogan, from
Sir Cullo O'Neal first Laird of Myrton in Scotland, who was a
son of the family of Clambys in IRELAND.
Jas. McCulloah of GRogan, Son of M. McCulloch Esq.; of
Brandalston, Son of Alexander Laird of Myrton, &on of Symon
Laird of Myrton, Son of Henry Kilbrar and Margaret of Myrton,
which Henry was son-in-law of Sir Alexander Laird of Myrton, Son
of Sir ElenensLaird Of Myrton, Son of Sir Norman Laird of Myrton,
Son of Alexander Laird of Myrton, Son of Sir Godfrey Laird of
Myrton (who assumed the Sirname of McCulloah) Son of Sir Cullo
O'Neal first Laird of Myrton.
Memoirs relative to the House of Myrton. About the
beginning of the Fourteenth Century, the Irish being desirous
to shake off the English Yoke, invited Robert De Bruce King off'
Scotland tD assist them in the intended enterprise, and in
case of success, determined to make Edward De Bruce King of-
IRELAND,
f-IRELAND, EDWARD DE BRUCE in consequence thereof landed in the
North of Ireland at the head of 6000 Veterans, SCOTS, Soldiers
in the year 1315, and drove the English out of Ulster, the first
campaign, having defeated them in several engagements, and
possessed himself of, CARRICK , FERGUS , CONNER and other places of
importance.
He then marched his army through IRELAND several times and
forced the ENGLISH into their strongholds and fortified places,
but always returned to ULSTER to take up his winter quarters.
EDWARD DE BRUCE about the year 131$ preferred CULLO O'NEAL
to be Captain of Horse in his army, ROBERT DE BRUCE KING OF
SCOTLAND came to IRELAND with reinforcement to his brother
EgvlARD whose army was near DUNDALK, and King Robert marched his
forces near Newry, in order to join him, but the English having
received considerable reinforcements from ENGLAND and FRANCE, with
several gentlemen volunteers under BIRMINGHAM Earl of HOOTH, in a
manner, surprised Edward De Bruce near Dundalk, who could not be
prevailed on to quit his part and retreat to his brother King
Robert's army; though his little army was greatly diminished by
the fatigues of the preceeding campaign, and the English Army
was treble their number but tie returned at all events to give
them battle. The action happened in the month of October 13179
The English forced the center of Edward De Bruce's army, who
with the assistance of his guards endeavoring to stop their
progress was killed by one of the Gentlemen Volunteers named
MALPASS under the command of Sir WALTER LARPULK, CAPTAIN CULLO
O' NEAL then killed Malpass and recovered and brought off Edward
De Bruce's sword and made his retreat to the King of Scotland's
army. King Robert retreated to Conner where he wintered his
army, and quitted all his brother's post in IRELAND, and carried
back his army to SCOTLAND in the following Spring.
CAPTAIN CULLO O'N'..."AL and many other IRISH officers of
EDWARD DE BRUCE'S army went with King ROBERT to SCOTLAND who
,,ft� knighted CAPTAIN CULLO O'NEAL and prefered hire to his standard
bearer and SECRETARY of STATE and gave Sir Cullo O'Neal land in
Larn, and likewise the land of Myrton and Archawan which comprehend
KILLERAN AND ARDWELL in GALLOWAY.

and was succeeded by his eldest Son Alexander Mcuulloh, who find-
ing his estate much embarrassed by family debts, borrowed some
large sums of money from a Dr. McCulloh in London, the repayment
of which he received by heritable bonds, and put his estate of
Myrton. and C. in the hands of his brother, John McCulloh. Laird
Aidvill designing that the rent thereof should clear his debts,
and after having fixed his arrairs in such a manner, Laird
Alexander went to Ireland with family, to Sir Henry 01.Neil who
gave him land near the Main Water, where he resided until the
time of his death in the year 1643. He was succeeded by his
eldest Son William McCulloah Esq. of BRANDELSTON, who died ----
and left two sons, vix. James of Grogun andHenry of BRANDELSTON,

A Versatile'River�a"li
By JUDSON B. SHAW.
When a river boat captain drives a dog
sled In Alaska, that's news, by any and
r,0"1 all yardsticks.
Pine Bluff has during the past several
months played host to such a sled -driving
river man in the person of Captain J. A.
Pate of the Snagboat "Arkansas."
Captain Pa
tp; however, doesn't go
around boasting about his Arctic a0ven-
tures. He had much rather entertain vis-
itors with rhapsodies on the virtues of his
trim, white craft and Its gleaming ma-
chinery, extolling 14, many fine points
that have enabled it to remain in service
for more than a quarter of a century.
Pressed for more information about
himself, however, the veteran skipper ad-
CAPT. J. A. PAird'
mitted that he had done "one 6� two,
things in my time."
"I've been a sort of hack -around all my
life—self-educated almost entirely," Cap-
tain Pate began. "I was"born at James-
town, Ark., in 1866. When I was just a
boy I loved the water. I used to play
around in skiffs all the time. I got my
,first river job in '92 as clerk and helms-
man. In '96 'I received, my pilot's license
And in '98 my master's ticket. All this
time I was working on the rivers in this
,part of the. country.
"In '98," he continued, "I became rest-
less as young fellows will, and decided to
go somewhere—anywhere. I got a chance
to go to Alaska with a party of men and
jumped at it. I stayed with the party until
i he rivers thawed out in June, and then
went to work on the rivers and in the
$ering Sea and Arctic Ocean --my .only
- -sea-going experience. I stayed in Alaska
six winters and nine summers; I spent two :)
winters at home with my parents." `I
Captain Pate took a worn volume out ' r
of his desk and thumbed through its pages.
Its title was "Across Wildest America.;" by
Devine. The captain stopped at a full-page
illustration. It was a picture of a dog. ;
sled pulled `-; seven huskies with a driver
and passenger against a background of
snow and svruce. Although both men were,
muffled to the eyes in furs, the short,
stocky figure of the driver was easily rec- r,
ognized as Captain Pate. ,y
"The last four winters, -that I was in
AIaska," explained the captain, ''I-" arried t,a
the mail by dog -sled from GOlovin Bay to -�
Council City, a distahce of 60 miles. The
man on the sled is Father Devine, a Cath- • jd-
olic priest, the author of this book." C "�
Captain Pate was in the center of the
gold rush. He described the rapid rise of V
Nome from a small out -post of civilization
to a tumultuous mining camp.is
'
"Except for bne short prospecting trip C::1
-mostly for experience," he said, "I stayed
on the water. All of us captains had trou-
ble keeping crews on our boats. Men de- o
serted as soon as Rte touched land to dig
for gold. Often I was left alone on my
boat."
In 1907 Captain -Pate returned to Arkan-
sas and became a landlubber for foul'
years. He established a store and ran the
postoffice In his home town, Jamestown. '
Ife was married there.. However, during
these four years he worked enough on the
river at'odd times to keep up his license.
Auer the fourth year his store burned, •,:
and he ret= q_d to the river. ,t
"I �as never satisfied away from the ' k
river," the captain admitted. "We river'
men are equally as attached to our life
as are the seamen."
Except for 12 years, during which time i
he worked for private companies or owned
boats himself, Captain Date has been in
government service since his store burned.
"During all my river experience," he
stated proudly, "I've never- knocked a hole
In a brat big enough to leak:, rjor had a a
boat to burn or sink. Of course, I've had ;
fires and accidents and have even been
ice -bound for eight months at a time in
Alaska; but I've always been fortunate ,
enough to come out safely."
Captain Pate took command of the "Ar-
kansas" in 1929 and has wintered in Pine
Bluff for the last four winters. His family
lives here the entire year. i
"This is a good place to spend the
winter," he explained. "I can get the sup-
plies and machine parts I need for the
boat easily. So I have made my home
here."

In 1896 Captain Pate obtained his'
pilot's license and two years later . was j
made .a master. That same year he
signed up with a party of shipping men'
to go to Alaska and work on its rivers,
the Bering sea and the Arctic ocean—'
his only seagoing experience. He stayed
In Alaska six summers and nine winters,
spending two winters at home. During
that time he became a friend of the
famous Father Devine, author of North'
country tales, and was in the Alaskan
gold rush. His last four winters there he
carried the United States mail by dog-
sled from Golovin Bay to Council City,
a distance of 60 miles.
About the gold rush he once said:
' "Except for one short prospecting trip
mostly for experience. I . stayed on the
water. All of us captains had trouble
keeping crews on our boats. Men desert-
ed us as soon as we touched land to
dig for gold. Often I was left alone on
.my boat."
In 1907 he returned to Arkansas and
was in charge of a store and postoffice
at Jamestown. But when the building
was destroyed by fire four years later,
he returned to the river. saying that
"I was never satisfied away from the
river: We rivermen care egiialiy as at-
Itached to our life as are the seamen."
With the exception of 12 years during
,which he operated his own craft or was
yin the employ of private companies,
Captain Pate navigated for the Unitejd' States government. It was his prou
boort that during his period of servic
"I have never knocked a hole in a boa
big enough to leak or had a boat t
burn or sink."

Masonic Indge, a charter member of th
Odd Fellows lodge at Newport, anti '
inember of the Arctic Brotherhood o

CHARLES G. McCULLOH
Died, in Greenbrier township, Independence County, Arkansas,
April 30, 1907, age 72 years.
In early life he was made a Master Mason in Neill Lodge, No. 285,
A.F. & A.M., at Jamestown, Arkansas. No one was more devoted to
its interests or more fondly cherished its traditions.
Resolved That in the death of Bro. McCulloh this lodge has lost a
most devoted member and one whose counsel will be sadly missed; one
ever faithful in the discharge of his Masonic, social and civil
duties. Of him it can be truthfully said, that the world is better
that he lived.
Resolved. That we extend to the bereaved family our heartfelt
sympathy in this, their greatest loss and grief.
