Events

Birth*15 May 1882Farm near Union Church, Union Church, Jefferson, MS, USA,2,3,4

Event-Misc*Circa 1914Margaret Alice Lyons; Photo of Thomas and Margaret6
Employment*Between 1915 and 1942Manage gravel pit (49% owner), Brookhaven, MS, USA, During 1915, Thomas W. Maddux, Sr., by then a young surveyor, was hired by the Hibernia National Bank of New Orleans to temporarily manage a gravel pit at Brookhaven, Mississippi. He relocated there with his wife and one child and the other children were born there.

I do not know the details, but he stayed on as General Manager of the gravel pit, which was later purchased by Jahncke Service of New Orleans and was operated as the Brookhaven Gravel Company. (Lois A. Maddux indicated that he was 49% owner of the gravel pit.dhj)

In 1929, after the stock market crash, the business suffered severe financial difficulties and due to this and other circumstances was never again able to become the booming business it had once been.

After limping through the thirties with greatly reduced production, the pit was largely inactive by the early forties and T. W. Maddux returned to civil engineering to make a living.2

    A woman able to do a great deal with little, whether it be food, people or flowers...et cetera, et cetera.
    I treasure and cherish your friendship...the times we have shared...the laughter...discussions...plants...food...the bond between us that transcends everything worldly.
    Heaven is made for a woman like you who has known how to give love - expressing that love by sharing what God has given you and that for which you have worked.
    If when I am in my 80's, even one person feels about me as I do about you, I will have lived well. from your friend..Shirley Estes

    Words from Elizabeth Hinckley
    Each person has uncountable sides, angles, edges and depths to whom they ar and how they are viewed by the rest of us. We are a daughter, a sister, a friend, a neighbor and a lover among many. But we are also gardeners, writers, scholars and butterfly catchers. Most of what I know about my grandmother, I know from what she did and where she lived.

    Each summer for a stretch, my sister and I took trips to see our grandmothers. They were easy times - visiting Fur's Mill, catching goldfish in Grandma's pond with old pots from her kitchen and making fast friends with the neighborhood kids. Even now, each time I come back I still walk to the downtown area of Brookhaven, go to Woolworth's for bubble gum cigarettes, and those little wax candy juice bottles and balance on the railroad tracks as far as I can, back to Grandma's house.

    Growing up, I always saw Grandma as the woman who made excellent catfish and cornbread, pretended that she was surprised I didn't like vegetables each time the green beans came around the table to me, and loved to sign old sons, from "In the Little Red Schoolhouse" to "Poor Babes in the Woods." She was a cook and a singer.

    Grandma painted in oils and made flower collages, she did beautiful needlework and landscaper her yard for which she won gardener of the year. She was a creator.

    She loved her daughter and granddaughters so deeply, not just because we were hers but because she admired who we were and what we had the ability to accomplish as modern women. It's very easy for women of my age to believe that we alone are responsible for getting where we are in today's world. We forget that there was a long line before us. Women like my grandmother in their independence and individuality, are who we model ourselves after. She was a rold model.

    Every day that goes by, from here on out, I know I will remember some special nuance and angle that my grandmother had. We never realize how much people have effected us daily, until they leave uu. But I also know that now, every time I look at my mother, I will also see bits of Grandma, all the best bits. For me there's no better way of remembering Lois Maddux - cook, singer, creator, role model, mother and my grandmother. Elizabeth Hinckley

Witness1996President of MENC, a national org. of music educators, USA, FROM BROOKHAVEN NEWSPAPER
June Hinckley, a Brookhaven native, is one of two candidate who have been nominated for president of the MENC, a national organization of music educators.

Hinckley, the daughter of Lois Maddux and the late T. W. Maddux, is currently an arts education specialist for the Florida Department of Education. She was a 2962 honor graduate of Brookhaven High School.

Hinckley has taught all levels, pre-kindergarten through university. She is chairwoman of the National Council of State Supervisors of Music and editor of "Music at the Middle Level: Building Strong Programs."

She is opposed for the MENC presidency by Paul E. Thoms, a retire assistant superintendent of Fairfield (Ohio) public schools and past president of MENC's North Central Division.

The winner will serve MENC for six years, two as president-elect, two as president, and two as vice-president.

Ballots will be mailed to MENC members in January. Results will be announced in March.

FROM EDUCATION PERIODICAL
June Hinckley has taught coral, instrumental, and general music at all levels in Virginia, New York and Florida for over 15 years. She was the music coordinator for Brevard County, Florida, a system of over seventy schools. Since 1984, she has been the arts education specialist for the Florida Department of Education. She assists Florida teachers and school districts with curriculum and professional development in the arts and provides leadership in implementing state and federal legislation and addressing current "hot topics." In Florida, she initiated development of arts materials concerning drop-out prevention, early childhood, after-care programs, high school general music, technology, multi-cultural arts education and the state arts curriculum framework. She is the Department of Education liaison to the Florida Alliance for Arts Education ACE Project, which coordinates statewide advocacy, outreach, and leadership development. Hinckley is president of the National Council of State Supervisors of Music and served on the writing committee for the development of the National Standards for Music Education. She was a member of the MENC Publications Planning Committee, edited the MENC publication "Music at the Middle Level: Building Strong Programs," and is on the editorial board of "Teaching Music."

"Music education must determine its role in a changing American educational system as it responds to funding reorganization and changes in American society, as well as advances in technology. These issues will dramatically impact the scheduling and staffing of music programs and the resources available to music classrooms. Quality programs in schools of the future will require our having a visionary leadership with a clear concept of the issued that are central to an education that includes music. This unified vision is essential to influence twenty-first century educational conditions and to strengthen our advocacy efforts. MENC can assist the profession in addressing the changes that can and should be made to better meet the needs of students entering the workplace and seeking personal fulfillment in the new millennium. We must be prepared to face reform trends that would diminish music education - trends that might make music either the handmaiden of other curricular areas or simply an enhanced socializing experience for students. Remaining grounded in our primary purpose - the growth and musical development of young people - will be critical to providing a sense of stability during this time of change. We must demonstrate to the public that quality music instruction is a powerful stabilizing force that helps maintain a constructive balance in schools and offers students and adults a vital intellectual, emotional, and creative outlet. MENC's role will be to initiate dialogue with our partners in other organizations and with the music industry to plan music programs for twenty-first century education. MENC can be the catalyst in these discussions, just as it was in the development of the Music Standards. The organization must continue its vigorous, proactive leadership to sustain the continued good health of music instruction. By mentoring music teachers and networking with state organizations, a strong MENC will lead music education into the future."5,6

June received her bachelor's degree in music and education from Louisiana Polytechnic Institute in 1963 and her master's degree from Stetson University in 1977. She began her career teaching music in Norfolk, Va., shortly after her marriage to Zack Thomas Hinckley. When she moved with Zack to Syracuse, N.Y., she taught music in Syracuse public schools.

After the girls began school, June returned as a music teacher to Kennedy Middle School in Rockledge, and in 1979 became fine arts supervisor for Brevard County schools, where she served until she moved to Tallahassee to take a new position as state arts-education consultant for the Florida Department of Education. She initiated a number of innovative art and music programs for the state. Throughout her life June was intimately involved in music and music education. She directed her church choir at First United Methodist Church of Cocoa in Cocoa. June was an active member of MENC, the National Association for Music Education, for whom she wrote articles and a newsletter column and served as president from 2000 to 2002. She received numerous honors for her work in the field of music education, including an honorary doctorate from Stetson University in 2001 and the recent naming of The June M.

June was a courageous and resolute woman, but she became ill in October 2006 and died quietly of cancer in Birmingham on Feb. 24, 2007. She is survived by her two daughters, Elizabeth Anne Hinckley of Los Angeles, Calif., and Catherine Claire Hinckley Brooks (and husband Trey Lee Brooks) of Vestavia, Ala., and her three grandsons, Avery Andrew Brooks (age 6), Henry Thomas Brooks (age 5) and Emory Edward Brooks (age 2). Her former husband, Zack, lives in Rockledge. June also left many very good friends. "We shall all miss her very much."
