Biographical History

William Humphries brought his family to Texas after the Civil War. Settling in Milburn, Texas, in Central Texas, he and his wife, Maggie Hollifield Humphries, had three children, Jessie, Lillian and L. Kyle. Although the entire family is represented, the papers of Jessie and Kyle dominate the collection. Jessie Humphries was the first female graduate of Howard Payne College and later served as Dean of Students at the College of Industrial Arts, which later became Texas Women's University in Denton, Texas. She never married. Sister Lillian was also an educator and served as the Director of the Extension Department at the College of Industrial Arts. Kyle attended Baylor University and became a teacher in New York City.
