Maggie Spencer Hundley

Sometime between the years 1909 and 1913, a lady by the name of Maggie Spencer Hundley, was put on a 
train in Halifax Co. Va, by her parents, for a destination unknown to them, or so they told their other 
children, never to return to the family.  Maggie traveled to Lynchburg, VA, where she obtained work in a 
picture framing shop owned by John Logan Tyree and wife Marcie Roberta Scott Tyree.  During the time 
Maggie was working for the Tyree’s, she and the owner, John fell in love.  Marcie refused to give John the 
divorce he wanted so he could marry Maggie.  John and Marcie’s marriage was arranged by their 
families.   So John and Maggie left VA, changed their names to John Terrell Williams and Margaret S. 
Hundley.  They went to MO, married and had 4 daughter’s.   They remained in St. Joseph MO until they 
took their family and moved to San Diego CA, (in  Nov. 1920) Margaret became ill and died in San Diego 
CA on May 13, 1922.   Knowing that she was dying, Margaret made John promise to always keep her 
daughter’s togather.  Margaret loved her daughter’s greatly, and always loved dressing them all in white.  
After Margaret’s death John moved his daughter’s back to St. Joseph Mo.  He was unable to care for the 
children alone,  so he put them in an orphanage.  John answered an ad in a newspaper, where a woman 
from Golden CO was looking for a husband;  her name was Elizabeth Burkhart.  John went to Golden CO 
and married the woman.  They returned to St. Joseph and retrieved the girls.  John remained in St. Joseph.  
After his four daughter’s were grown, John divorced Elizabeth.  Afterwards, John lived with his youngest 
daughter and her husband.  They moved to CA.  John died in San Bernardino CA.
