George Harqrave was born in Crossville, Illinois, and lived there until

joining the U.S. Marines when he graduated from high school. Upon

his discharge from military service in 1964, George moved to Midland.

Margaret was born in Brownfield, Texas, but when she was four years

old the Pace family moved to Carlsbad, New Mexico. She stayed in

Carlsbad for a year after completing high school, then moved to

Midland in September, 1963. George and Margaret were introduced by a mutual friend in August, 1964, and

six months later they married. Margaret grew up attending the Church of Christ. George, who came from a

Baptist background, was baptized at the North “A” congregation in 1974.

George’s first job in Midland was with Drilco Oil Tools, and he worked there for twenty-one years. While

working for Drilco, he also was a “part time” farmer, harvesting the first bale of cotton ginned in Midland in

1979. After leaving Drilco, George was self-employed in trucking and pipe inspection. Later he worked for

Harmon’s Machine and for Lone Star Transportation. While working with Drilco and Harmon’s he traveled

throughout the U.S. and visited Canada, Australia, and South America. George is now retired – no more

trucking, raising cattle, or farming.

Between graduating from high school and moving to Midland, Margaret worked one year in Carlsbad as

a long distance operator for General Telephone. This was the day when a person might dial “O” and an

operator would place a call for you. Her first full time job in Midland was with Sun Oil Company as a scouting

clerk in the land department, typing drilling reports. On occasion she also took dictation if the boss’s secretary

was not in the office. After seven years she went to work for Automated Financial Systems. Margaret then

went to work in the accounting department of Rutter and Wilbanks Corporation. This was her final job before

retiring.

The Hargraves have two daughters, Staci and Kristi. The Hargrave family enjoyed camping and have many

good memories of vacations in the mountains of Colorado. Staci and her husband, Alan Kilgore, live in

Midland, while Kristi and her husband, Steve Claybaugh, live in Lubbock. George and Margaret are

grandparents to four granddaughters and are great-grandparents to a great grandson and two great

granddaughters. They count it a blessing to be a part of God’s family at the Downtown congregation.
