Here are open questions about our family. U.V. (or U.L or U E.) Oswalt married Clementine (Clem or Clemmie) White around 1874 in Mississippi. Clementine was the daughter of John S. White and Martha ?, born in 1852. U.V. and Clementine are my father's grandparents. Family lore is that Clementine was an orphan, but I have no more information. Do you have a White connection that might help me find more about this family? [[Category:Family Mysteries]]

These were referred to in a checklist on the trello boards and have been copied from a Google Doc ==Template 1: No for now== Hi , Thank you for expressing an interest to undertake OT2. As you are aware, OT2 requires a new level of researching ability and profile management skills. It requires the ability to develop well written, complex and interesting biographies, which brings the person in the Profile to life. It also requires being able to write manual citations of a high standard, as the records available when going back in time become more difficult to find, interpret and contextualise. Therefore as part of taking people into the OT2 program, a review is done to ensure the skills learned through OT1 have been maintained and built on since graduation. This assessment is an important entry gateway for OT2. It is necessary to ensure a Trailer is ready for the undertaking and also helps us engage our Trailblazer volunteers in the most effective way possible. It also ensures there is a high chance of each Trailer having a valuable and rewarding OT2 experience that they can take forward in their genealogy endeavors. I have reviewed some of your current work and at this point in time, we do not think you are ready to undertake OT2. We would like you to focus on consolidating both your research and Profile management skills, including citation standards. When you have done some further work on Profiles where death is no later than 1837, please feel free to contact us with a further new 2-3 Profiles that you’re pleased with for review. It must be work you have completed since graduating from OT1, and be recent at the time you submit them. We have a selection of OT2 Preparation files for Trailers to practice with - let me know you’d like to work on any and I will allocate them to you. You can find the list here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_2_Preparation_Profiles Good luck with your WikiTree work and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you in the future should you wish to express further interest to proceed. Kind regards Gill Whitehouse OT2 Team Leader England Project ==Template 2: Request work for review== Hi , It's great you have expressed an interest to undertake OT2. So I am able to assess your readiness for OT2 could you please send me 2-3 Profiles of your own recent work for review? They should be Profiles where death occurred no later than 1837. It must be work you have completed since graduating from OT1, and be recent. I will need to see that you have maintained, and ideally built on, the skills and standards you learned through your OT1 participation and graduation. This assessment is an important entry gateway for OT2. It is necessary to ensure a Trailer is ready for the undertaking and also helps us engage our Trailblazer volunteers in the most effective way possible. I look forward to hearing from you and receiving the ID or URL of the Profiles that you consider your best work so I can take a look. Thank you! Kind regards Gill Whitehouse OT2 Team Leader England Project ==Template 3: No response after two weeks== Hi , I'm just following up on the email I sent a couple of weeks ago following your expression of interest to undertake OT2. If I don't hear back from you by x/x/x we will assume you have decided not to proceed at this time. Regards Gill Whitehouse OT2 Team Leader England Project ==Template 4: Don’t be discouraged== Hi , Thank you very much for sending us a selection of your Profiles for review so we could check your readiness to undertake OT2. As you are aware, OT2 requires a new level of researching ability and Profile management skills as the records available when going back in time become more difficult to find, interpret and contextualise, for inclusion in a Profile. It is quite a challenge in comparison to OT1! Please don't be discouraged, but at this point in time, we do not think you are ready to undertake OT2 and would like you to focus on consolidating both your research and Profile management skills, including citation standards, for a bit longer. When you have done some further work on Profiles where death is no later than 1837, please feel free to contact us and send a further 2-3 completed Profiles for review. As before, it must be work you have completed since graduating from OT1, and be recent at the time you submit them. We have a selection of OT2 Preparation files for Trailers to practice with - let me know you’d like to work on any and I will allocate them to you. You can find the list here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_2_Preparation_Profiles Good luck with your WikiTree work and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you in the future should you wish to express further interest to proceed. Kind regards Gill Whitehouse OT2 Team Leader England Project ==Template 5: When are you ready to start?== Hi , Your trailblazer, XYZ, has recommended that you are, or might be, interested in carrying on with OT2. If that's the case, can you let me know approximately when you might like to start, then we can make sure you are not forgotten. Kind regards Gill Whitehouse OT2 Team Leader England Project ==Template 6: OT1 Grad not recommended for OT2 but would like to do it at some point== Hi , Congratulations on graduating OT1! Your Trailblazer has let me know you are interested in going on to OT2 but that you are not quite ready and need some time to consolidate your skills. Working with an England Project team is a great way to do this. In addition, you could read the OT2 Overview and check out the Resources 1500-1699. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:OT2_-_An_overview_of_Part_2 We also have a selection of OT2 Preparation Profiles to work on. Please feel free to take any of them on but do let me know if you decide to so I can remove them from the list. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_2_Preparation_Profiles When you think you’re ready, please let me know and we can take it from there. In the meantime, enjoy your WikiTree’ing! Kind regards Gill Whitehouse OT2 Team Leader England Project ==Template 7: Will start later== Hi , Thanks for getting back to me. That’s completely ok if you’re not quite ready yet. I have placed you on the “not ready yet” list so just let me know when you are ready to proceed and we can pick it up then. In the meantime, enjoy your WikiTree work! Kind regards Gill Whitehouse OT2 Team Leader England Project ==Template 8: You’re on the wait list== Hi , Thanks for getting back to me. That’s great that you are ready to proceed as soon as possible. I have placed you on the wait list and a Trailblazer will be assigned when one is available. We do have a wait time at the moment, it’s about 3-4 weeks - but please feel free to check in with me at any time to find out what the timing is looking like. Rest assured that a Trailblazer will be in contact when you are next up! In the meantime, you may like to refresh your memory with the OT1 and OT2 pages as many of them have been updated recently. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_Trailers_Index https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:OT2_-_An_overview_of_Part_2 Kind regards OT2 Team Leader England Project

There are two ways to find a Profile to work on for this time period. === 1. Category Page === Go to this page: [[:Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_1_%281700-1837%29_Pending_Profiles|Orphan Trail 1 1700-1837 Pending Profiles]] === 2. WikiTree+ Report === '''Step 1: Search for a profile :Click on any of the '''County Links''' below to search for a suitable profile to work on. :You can search within the county of your choice. : '''OPTIONALLY''' (to help find profiles with few sources) * Click on "Analyze results '''"Bio Check"''' at the top of the results. * Note: You may need to login with your wikitree id and password * Click Cancel. * If necessary, increase the number of profiles to search and report to be bigger than the total in the search results * Select "Reliable Sources Required" * Optionally deselect "Report style details" * Select "Report all profiles" * Click "Check profiles" * '''Click''' the header "'''Number Valid Sources'''" to sort to put the fewest sources at the top '''Step 2: Check it meets all the criteria''' :Click through the profiles to find one you'd like to work on. Check to ensure:
*It does not have a profile manager
*ALL dates are within 1700-1837
*ALL events (birth, marriage and death) are in England
*There are family links (at least one parent and a spouse; children are a bonus)
*There are no more than two reliable sources '''Step 3: Once you've chosen a profile ...''' * Send a message to your Trailblazer. They will appraise your profile choice before setting it up to ensure its suitability, and then will set it up for you.
* '''Please only send one name at a time, and include the Wiki-ID. '''(Although it is worth having a back-up ready just in case the first selection turns out to be a dud!)

There are two ways to find a Profile to work on for this time period. Option 2 may be used for your second profile, after you have a Trailblazer. === 1. Category Page === Go to this page: [[:Category: England, Orphan Trail 1 (1838-1957) Pending Profiles|England, Orphan Trail 1 (1838-1957) Pending Profiles category]] === 2. WikiTree+ Report === '''Step 1: Search for a profile :Click on any of the '''County Links''' below to search for a suitable profile to work on. :You can search within the county of your choice. : '''OPTIONALLY''' (to help find profiles with few sources) * Click on "Analyze results '''"Bio Check"''' at the top of the results. * Note: You may need to login with your wikitree id and password * Click Cancel. * If necessary, increase the number of profiles to search and report to be bigger than the total in the search results * Select "Reliable Sources Required" * Optionally deselect "Report style details" * Select "Report all profiles" * Click "Check profiles" * '''Click''' the header "'''Number Valid Sources'''" to sort to put the fewest sources at the top '''Step 2: Check it meets all the criteria''' :Click through the profiles to find one you'd like to work on. Check to ensure:
* It does not have a profile manager
** You won't step on any toes, because it's an Orphaned Profile without a Profile Manager! ** Plus you will be contributing to the England Project as a whole, moving you away from your family for some new challenges. * ALL dates are after 1838 (so that a birth registration can be found)
* ALL events (birth, marriage and death) are in England
* There are family links (at least one parent and a spouse; children are a bonus)
* There are no more than two reliable sources * Note that exceptions can be made, as long as it looks like there will be plenty of additional sources that can be added to the profile '''Step 3: Once you've chosen a profile ...''' * Send a message to your Trailblazer. They will appraise your profile choice before setting it up to ensure its suitability, and then will set it up for you.
* '''Please only send one name at a time, and include the Wiki-ID. '''(Although it is worth having a back-up ready just in case the first selection turns out to be a dud!)

__TOC__ ===Selecting your 1700-1837 era profiles=== # '''[https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Space:Orphan_Trail_1700-1837_Profile_Search&public=1 Go to this page to find a profile to work on]'''
#Be sure that it meets all the [[Space:Orphan_Trail_1700-1837_Profile_Search#criteria|selection criteria]]. #You won't step on any toes because it is an Orphaned Profile without a Profile Manager! ===Introducing Parish Registers=== From 1538 onwards, the Church of England as the Established Church kept records of the vital events of their parishioners. Vicars, parish clerks, churchwardens, curates and other clergy kept records of '''baptisms''', '''banns''', '''marriages''', and '''burials''' (and occasionally, the birth and death date). Once a quarter, copies were sent to the local bishop, and these documents are known as '''Bishop's Transcripts'''. Unfortunately, not all of these records have survived as historically they were kept at the parish church and were subject to war, fire, water damage and pests. Where they have survived, the originals are now mostly lodged with the County Record Office of whichever county the parish was located in. ===Non-conformists=== Non-conformity in England described any manner of worship which wasn't under the auspices of the Church of England.
Non-Conformists kept their own records of baptisms (or equivalent naming ceremonies) and burials. They did not necessarily have permanent places of worship or their own burial grounds. '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage_Act_1753 Hardwicke's Marriage Act of 1753]''' stipulated that all marriages in England and Wales (except those of Quakers and Jews) had to take place in a Church of England parish church.
After 1837, marriages could take place in a nonconformist place of worship, as long as there was a Superintendent Registrar present.
After 1898, some chapels were allowed to dispense with this person.
Most of these Non-Conformist registers are now deposited at County Record Offices.
(Note: 'Nonconformists' included Quakers, Catholics, Methodists, Congregationalists, Baptists, even 'Protestant Dissenters'.) === '''{{Red|Online parish register sources }}''' === * '''[https://www.familysearch.org/ FamilySearch]''' free to search (requires you to set up a free account). Many parish registers are indexed, often with a link to the image of the register. Many more registers have been scanned, but are unindexed and you just have to work through the pages. Search for the parish in the Search>Catalog menu. A list of all the resources from that parish will be returned. * '''[https://www.freereg.org.uk FreeReg]''': free; volunteer project, good transcriptions with more detail than FamilySearch transcriptions; coverage patchy * '''[https://www.ukbmd.org.uk/online_parish_clerk Online Parish Clerk (OPC) sites]''': free (not all counties included) * '''[https://www.findmypast.co.uk FindMyPast]''': requires paid membership; good for all English records - transcriptions and images. * '''Ancestry.com''': requires paid membership; do not copy from member trees, as they are often unsourced. '''use for clues''' * '''[[Space:England|England County Places & Resources]]''', England County Research Resources index. It may seem tempting to head straight for FindMyPast or Ancestry to get your source. But don't forget, those sources will be behind a paywall, so should really only be used as '''clues'''. Not everyone is going to be able to see them if they don't have a subscription, so try to find a free to view source. If Ancestry or FindMyPast is the only place that has the source, there is a way to share free to view Ancestry Images which can be viewed without a subscription, as well as an Ancestry template which creates a permalink to the record. (See "Citing Sources behind a paywall ", below). ===1752: changes in the English calendar=== In 1752, two important changes happened in the English calendar. Although they happened in the same year, it is important not to get them confused. #'''Great Britain and its colonies adopted the Gregorian calendar''' which most of Europe was already using. The Julian calendar which was in use in England before September 1752 in England was behind the Gregorian calendar by eleven days. Wednesday 2 September 1752 was followed by Thursday 14 September 1752. ''No adjustment is made in Wikitree or any other history for these eleven days - they simply do not exist.'' # '''The date for New Year's Day moved from 25 March to 1 January.''' New Year's day on the 25 March (1751 and before) is known as Old Style New Year. New Year on 1 January (1752 and after) is known as New Style New Year. This is just a brief summary of the calendar changes. [[Space:England_Calendar_Changes_1752|'''See here''']] for more details and some worked examples of what you might see in the parish registers. ===How to Edit in 1700-1837=== In the previous stage, you were able to find civil birth, marriage and death registrations. In this 1700-1837 period, vital statistics were only recorded by the Church. You will use baptism as a pointer to birthdates (be aware that sometimes children were not always baptised at birth) and burials as a pointer to a death date. Marriage dates are still recorded.
WikiTree does not have fields for baptism/christening and burial. If you have birth and death dates AS WELL AS baptism/burial dates, then put the birth/death dates in the fields at the top and the baptism/burial dates in the Biography. If you only have baptism/burial dates, put them in the birth/death fields at the top and mark them as 'before'; do not type the text 'before' or 'bef'.
{{Image|file=RNH_Images-40.jpg |align=l |size=xl }} {{Clear}}
'''Names''': Married women should have their married surname entered as their “Current Last Name”.
'''Dates''': Always write the month in full and in text, for example 5 September 1775. Never put 5/9/75.
'''Locations''': “United Kingdom” should only be used for English locations after 1801. The “United Kingdom” did not exist as an entity before that. If you have no idea of the village or town where an event took place, use the county if you are sure of that. It helps others (and you) to know where to look in future.
===Use of "Research Notes"=== This is an important place for recording what information is required, where you have looked for it and if there is conflicting evidence in the records you have discovered about that person. It will help the next person who may want to research that profile.
Research notes can also be used to record details from the parish registers and other sources which cannot be woven into the biography, but provide useful information (for example "Three pages torn out of the baptism register, may have recorded more of this couple's children")
To note that it was you who left the notes, and on what date, you can "sign" it by typing ~~~~ after your note. ===Sources=== Sources are recorded in the same way as you learned in the previous group: listed under the Sources heading, or inline and woven into the biography. Refresh your memory on this by [[Space:England_1838-1957|returning to the 1838-1957 resources page]]. '''Other people should be able to find the source you cite. If it's online include a link. If it's not online, Say a book you have in your possession, then the title, author, publisher, year published, volume and the page number. For sources such as a Family Bible or Will consider creating a free Space page (FSP) you could transcribe the entries in the Family Bible or the Will on the FSP and link to the profiles of everyone mentioned. The easiest way to remember what to include in your citations is the '''W's''' as discussed in [[Space:England_Orphan_Trail:_Using_FreeBMD_and_Creating_a_Citation|Using FreeBMD and Creating a Citation]].

Let's take a look at a typical citation from FamilySearch. This one is the 1796 baptism for Elizabeth Thomas Hall.

"England, Devon, Parish Registers, 1538-1912," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KC9N-J77 : 27 November 2014), Eliz Thomas Hall, 1796, Baptism; from "Church of England parish registers 1538-1911," database and images, findmypast (http://www.findmypast.com : n.d.); citing Devon, archive reference 358/5, images provided by FamilySearch International.

The '''citation''' is the whole thing, it tells us about the source and should have enough information that the source '''can be located''' and verified by yourself or another researcher in the future.
The '''source''' is the name of the document, record collection, the '''title''' of the source: FamilySearch's database called 'England,Devon, Parish Registers, 1538-1912'
The '''repository''' is '''where''' the record is being held: FamilySearch
(The repository for the '''image''' itself is FindMyPast.com - where the image is 'reposing' or ''''being held'''') After completing this section, you are encouraged to take your [[Help:Pre-1700_Profiles |Pre-1700 certification]], which is a self-test quiz. ==Example Profiles== Follow this link to view a list of example profiles worked on by the England Project: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_Example_Profiles Orphan Trail Example Profiles] ===Trailers Index=== An Index of the guidance pages used throughout the Trail can be found here: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_Trailers_Index Trailers Index].

__TOC__ ===Selecting your 1838 - 1957 era profiles=== # '''[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:OT1_-_Profile_Search_1838-1957 Go to this page to find a profile to work on]'''
#Be sure that it meets all the selection criteria. #You won't step on any toes because it is an Orphaned Profile without a Profile Manager! ===Sources to use in this period=== '''{{Red|Only use the sources listed below for Births, Marriages and Deaths, and Census records, where possible.}}''' ===='''Births, Marriages, and Deaths (BMDs)'''==== Before 1837, events such as baptisms/christenings, marriages and burials were only entered into the parish register. On 1 July 1837, a law was passed that births, marriages, and deaths (BMDs) were to be recorded as part of '''Civil Registration''' and kept by the General Register Office of England and Wales (GRO). In the early years Civil Registration was patchy and it did not become compulsory until 1875. BMD's were recorded in four quarters: Jan-Feb-'''Mar''', Apr-May-'''Jun''', Jul-Aug-'''Sept''', and Oct-Nov-'''Dec''' (the name of each quarter is in bold type); thus a birth in July would be recorded in the September quarter. Cities, towns, and villages were grouped together in '''Registration Districts'''; thus South Pool, a village in Devon is the district of Kingsbridge even though it is several miles away. This is an excellent site which lists all the registration districts and which cities/towns/villages they cover: [https://www.ukbmd.org.uk/reg/districts/index.html Registration Districts Index] An entry in the GRO registration index may look like this: Kingsbridge [district], Volume 5b, Page 100, March quarter 1853. The Registration Indexes are indexes to the '''certificates''', which cannot be viewed directly by the public but can be ordered for a fee. The certificates give more information than is contained in the indexes, however the indexes can be viewed online for free by the public. ===='''Online BMD sources'''==== '''{{Red|Only use the following sites for BMDs during 1838-1957 where possible.}}''' * '''[https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/login.asp GRO Services]''': This is by far the '''BEST''' English resource site for looking up births/deaths for this era and is considered the '''Gold standard''' for birth and death sources for this time period. You will need to register and log in, but it is a free account and you will never receive any spam. The birth records are especially useful, as the '''mother's maiden name is given''' (which is great as you can check you have the correct birth entry if the mothers maiden name is known, and especially useful if a mother's last name at birth is unknown, as you can cross-reference all listed children to help determine the mother's maiden name). **'''[[Space:How_to_use_the_GRO|How to use the GRO with example citations]]''' * '''[https://www.freebmd.org.uk FreeBMD]''': no need to log in or have an account; you can search for all events; no maiden names available until 1911; volunteer project with huge coverage, particularly useful for marriage sources as you can click on the page number to check for the correct spouse. **'''[[Space:England_Orphan_Trail:_Using_FreeBMD_and_Creating_a_Citation|Guide to using FreeBMD and creating a citation]]''' *'''[https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/#calendar Find a will| GOV.UK]''': Did your profile person leave a will? This is the place to search for wills or probate records as it gives a date of death and last place of residence- you may get lucky! It is worth searching up to a couple of years after the death date, as the index has the records listed under the year of probate, rather than the year of death. *'''[https://www.freereg.org.uk/ FreeReg parish registers]''' Parish registers transcribed by the same volunteer group as FreeBMD and FreeCen. Free to use, no account required. The coverage can be patchy, but the transcriptions are accurate and are of the full entry for a baptism, marriage or burial, often verbatim as the vicar wrote it. Easy to use search page. ===='''Censuses'''==== A census is a snapshot of the population of a country at a particular point in time. In England it is taken every 10 years, and in the censuses you will be looking at recorded each household, usually with each person's name, age, marital status, occupation, place of birth, and showed where the family lived. Other useful information was also recorded such as visitors or lodgers in the house, whether the family had servants, and who their neighbours were.
A census was taken in England and Wales every ten years starting in 1801, but the earliest one which is of any use to genealogists is 1841, as this is when names, ages and occupations were recorded of each individual.
The latest census in the public domain is the 1911 census as there is a 100 year closure rule. The 1921census is available by subscription, or for paying for a single copy, on Findmypast.
As the 1931 Census was destroyed by fire during the Second World War and no census was taken in 1941 because of WWII, the 1939 Register is invaluable to family historians and can be accessed on FindMyPast and Ancestry with a subscription. We don't expect you to use paysites while completing the Orphan Trail, but knowing about the 1939 Register can be useful for future reference. * '''[https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/census-records/ National archives, census records]''' This guide explains how to access the historical censuses from 1841 to 1911 and provides information on using the census returns. ===='''Online census sources'''==== * '''[https://www.familysearch.org FamilySearch.org]''': free; needs account (free also); has millions of records as well as censuses * '''[https://www.freecen.org.uk FreeCEN]''': free; volunteer project; coverage patchy *'''[[Space:England_Orphan_Trail:_FreeCEN%2C_FamilySearch_and_Locating_Citations|Guide to using FreeCen, FamilySearch and locating the Citations]]''' ===Research with Rootsearch!=== WikiTree has a really handy app called Rootsearch which can search over 20 different genealogy websites without having to keep inputting the same information. It can be invaluable when researching a profile and is very easy to use. * '''[[Space:England_OT_Rootsearch|Guide to accessing and using Rootsearch]]''' ===How do I know I have the correct record?=== This is where it's really useful to use research notes. The best way to check you have the correct record is to compare the information in that record with other records you already have. Look at the occupations, ages, birthplaces, where they lived, other family members, mother's maiden name and so on. Remember there may be some variation in ages (year of birth), the spelling of names, and birthplaces. A great method for determining you have the correct record and especially useful for breaking down brick walls is the FAN club method (Friends, Associates and Neighbours) the term was coined by Elizabeth Shown Mills. You can read more about the FAN club method in the articles below: * [https://lisalouisecooke.com/2016/10/29/genealogy-fan-club/ The Genealogy FAN Club Principle] Louise Cooke * [https://www.genealogyexplained.com/research/cluster-fan-club/ Cluster Research, start your own FAN club] Genealogy explained. ===Using Wildcards=== A way to search for spelling variations is by using '''wildcards''' in your searches.
A '''wildcard''' is simply a symbol used to '''replace a character or characters''' (think of the blank tile in a game of Scrabble). Typically the '''& or ? symbol represents a single letter''' and the '''asterisk * can be used to specify up to five characters''' in a word, which is particularly useful for finding variations of names where there may be one or more characters next to each other that could be different.
For example when searching for a surname such as McBride, using the * wildcard like so: M*Bride
would return both McBride and MacBride. Another name which has multiple variants is Ann. Adding the * at the end like so: Ann*
would return Ann, Anne, Annie, Anna etc. '''The question mark "?" is used to represent just one character''' in a word, which can be useful if you are getting too many results, or know that only one letter is likely to have changed (for example Sm?th would return Smith and Smyth). Most databases are set up for searching using wildcards and they can also be used in search engines such as Google. Some have their own symbols to insert in a search - read the instructions on the search page first. If you are struggling to locate a record give wildcards a try! ===How to add sources to a profile=== There are two ways to add sources to a profile: # '''List''' the sources at the bottom. This is the simplest method. If you are new to WikiTree, we encourage you to begin with this method. ::Sources are added below the ===Sources=== heading, using an asterisk (*) to create a bulleted list item. :::== Sources == ::: :::* [insert source here] # Use '''inline''' sources. This is a more advanced method. We encourage you to use this method once you become more familiar with WikiTree, ::Sources are embedded in the text wrapped in ... tags. You can click on the "C" symbol in the profile editing toolbar to automatically generate the tags. :::[Insert source here] You can learn more about adding sources to profiles [[Help:Sources|here]]. For examples of how to cite some common types of English records, see [[Space:England_Orphan_Trail:_Citation_templates|England Orphan Trail: Citation templates]]. ===Example Profiles=== Follow this link to view a list of example profiles worked on by the England Project: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_Example_Profiles Orphan Trail Example Profiles]. ===Trailers Index=== An Index of the guidance pages used throughout the Trail can be found here: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_Trailers_Index Trailers Index].

Add the invite/link to [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:OT_PC_Email_Templates#Template_9:_Discord_Invite_Email Template 9] and email the message to the Trailblazer to forward to their Trailer. *Trailblazer: When email received from OT co-PC, forward email to Trailer, tailoring it suit, and cross your fingers they join up! *OT co-PC: when Trailer joins WikiEngland Server, add the Trailer role to their Discord Profile (if another Leader hasn't already done so). === 18) Trail Log (Trailblazer and OT Team Leader to complete)=== *The use of Trail Logs is optional. It is the Trailer's own personal and private Free Space Page to note the profiles they work on and any top tips they learn. The Trail Log can only be seen by the Trailer, Trailblazer, and the Orphan Trail Team Leaders. Although it is private, the Trailers should not record any personal or sensitive information on it. Follow these steps if you wish to use one with your Trailer. *A) Check if a Trail Log already exists *Trailblazer: Check if a Trail Log already exists by searching the [https://www.wikitree.com/photo/png/Trail_Notes_Template Trail Log List]. If it doesn't, go to List *B). If it does, request trusted list access to the Trail Log using the Click here to request to join the Trusted List button on the Privacy tab. You can use this message: "Please add me to the Trusted List of this Trail Log so I can use it with my Trailer." *OT Team Leader: Once access to the Trailblazer has been given, advise them via the Activity section that it's been done. *Trailblazer: Bring the Trail Log up to date if needed. Add the Trailer to the Trusted List via the Privacy tab if required. Provide the link to the Trailer and include this message "Here is the link to your Trail Log. It is your own personal and private Free Space Page to note the profiles you will work on and any top tips you learn. The Trail Log can only be seen by you, me and the Orphan *Trail Team Leaders. Although it is private, please do not record any personal or sensitive information on it." You will also need to continue to remind them to update it with each new Profile as they work through the Trail. *B) If a Trail Log does not exist *Trailblazer: If a Trail Log doesn't already exist go to the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Trail_Notes_Template Trail Log template] and request trusted list access to template using the Click here to request to join the Trusted List button on the Privacy tab. You can use this message: "Please add me to the Trusted List of the template so I can create a Trail Log to work on with my Trailer." Note This only needs to be done once; the first time you want to create a Trail Log. As you will have access to the template ongoing, you don't need to ask for access each time, you can just create them as and when you wish. *OT Team Leader: Once access to the Trailblazer has been given, advise them via the Activity section that it's been done. *Trailblazer: Once access has been provided, create a Trail Log (using the format ‘Trail_Landman-257’) from the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Trail_Notes_Template Trail Log template] for their Trailer; Add the Trail Log's WikiTree ID (format will be 'Space:Trail_Landman-257') to the [https://www.wikitree.com/photo/png/Trail_Notes_Template OT image] so it appears in the Trail Log list, add OT1 Team Leaders ([https://trello.com/c/3r2ppVNX Who is who?]) as backup, Trailblazer and the Trailer as Profile Managers. Add the URL link for the Trail log to the Description section of the card. *Trailblazer: Update the Trail Log with TB name, start date and Wiki link to the first profile. Provide the link to the Trailer and include this message "Here is the link to your Trail Log. It is your own personal and private Free Space Page to note the profiles you will work on and any top tips you learn. The Trail Log can only be seen by you, me and the Orphan Trail Team Leaders. Although it is private, please do not record any personal or sensitive information on it." You will also need to continue to remind them to update it with each new Profile as they work through the Trail. *Trailblazer: If you wish to continue using a Trail Log with an OT2 Trailer, you can use this message: "We will continue to use the Trail Log you kept during OT1. Here is the link: [enter link to Trail Log here]. Just as before, this is your own personal and private Free Space Page to note the profiles you will work on and any top tips you learn. The Trail Log can only be seen by you, me and the Orphan Trail Team Leaders. Although it is private, please do not record any personal or sensitive information on it." We do not recommend starting the use of the Trial Log for the first time with an OT2 Trailer.

==Orphan Trail 1600-1699 Profile search== There are two ways to find a Profile to work on for this time period. === 1. Category Page === Go to this page: [[:Category:England%2C_Orphan_Trail_2_Pending_Profiles|Orphan Trail 2 Pending Profiles]] === 2. WikiTree+ Report === '''Step 1: Search for a profile :Click on any of the '''County Links''' below to search for a suitable profile to work on. :You can search within all the counties, or the county of your choice. '''Step 2: Check it meets all the criteria'''
* * * * *
'''Step 3: Once you've chosen a profile ...''' * Send a message to your Trailblazer. They will appraise your profile choice before setting it up to ensure its suitability, and then will set it up for you.
* '''Please only send one name at a time, and include the Wiki-ID. '''(Although it is worth having a back-up ready just in case the first selection turns out to be a dud!)

Please '''{{Red|read this entire page}}'''. It explains what is involved for this time period.

'''Selection Criteria''' * It does not have a profile manager * ALL dates are within 1600 - 1699 phase 1 or 1500 - 1599 phase 2 * ALL events (birth, marriage and death) are in England *There are family links (at least one parent and a spouse; children are a bonus) * There are no more than two reliable sources ==Parish Registers== In '''Orphan Trail Part One''', you learned how to use birth, marriage and death indexes from the GRO and FreeBMD, and how to use parish registers too. In '''Orphan Trail Part Two''', you will be continuing your work with parish registers, although the earlier the date, the more likely it will be that the relevant register does not exist or is damaged. The earliest parish registers date back to 1538 when King Henry VIII split with Rome and proclaimed himself head of the Church of England. As part of this new regime, Thomas Cromwell ruled that every vicar or rector must keep a record of all baptisms, marriages, and burials in his parish. In 1597, Queen Elizabeth ordered that the pages of such books be made of parchment which was more robust than paper. Some early parish registers have survived, but others have not, or are damaged or incomplete. During English Civil War (1643-1647) many parishes did not keep records. After the restoration of the monarchy in 1660, parish registers are kept more completely again. The format of parish registers has evolved over time. Many early registers record baptisms, marriages and burials in a single register. In 1660, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burying_in_Woollen_Acts Burying in Woollen Acts] meant that burial registers were often separate from Baptism and Marriage registers. In was not until 1812 that standardised printed registers became available for entering baptisms, marriages and burials separately. ===Online parish register sources=== * [https://www.familysearch.org FamilySearch.org]: free; needs account (free also); has millions of worldwide records.

This is known as the Old Style (O.S.) New Year which was used in England until the adoption of New Style (N.S.) New Year from 1 January 1752. For more information, see: * [[Space:England_Calendar_Changes_1752|'''England Calendar Changes 1752''']] This includes some worked examples.

You may also have to refer to the records kept by the Society of Religious Friends or '''Quakers'''. Quakers used another slightly different calendar again, starting on 1 March (rather than the 25th) and they also (mostly) didn't use the names of months which they regarded as "pagan", using the number of the month in the year instead. An [https://quaker-prod.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/store/1bebe83ad6547d2f3bbdaa7e05241b4c4017b546bcd7e5c2a9eaaa3b287c '''excellent resource'''] for this has been produced by the Society of Friends. In legal documents, you will find dates written using '''Regnal years''' rather than calendar years. The Regnal year is the year of the reign of the King or Queen, and is calculated from the date of their accession to the throne and not their Coronation.
For example, Elizabeth I came to the throne on 17 November 1558. This means that the Regnal year 10 Elizabeth 1 (the tenth year of the reign of Elizabeth I) ran from 17 November 1568 to 16 November 1569. You can convert regnal years to calendar years using a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regnal_years_of_English_monarchs#Regnal_calendar_table regnal calendar table]. ===Reading Old Handwriting=== Reading the handwriting in parish registers and other old documents can sometimes be challenging, At first glance, the writing might look illegible, but with patience and practice you can learn to read it. The study of old handwriting is known as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palaeography palaeography]. There are some great online tutorials to help you learn, including: * [https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/palaeography/ Palaeography: reading old handwriting. 1500 - 1800: A practical online tutorial] provided by the National Archives * [https://www.english.cam.ac.uk/ceres/ehoc/ English Handwriting Online 1500-1700: An online course] provided by COPIA. More information can be found here: [[Space:Transcribing_and_Interpreting_English_Wills|Transcribing and Interpreting English Wills]] ==Other Useful Sources== The coverage of early parish registers is patchy at best, and there are no parish registers before 1538. Instead, you will often need to look for other sources to show when a person was born, married or died, as well as their relationship to other family members. You can find this information in a range of sources, including visitations, wills, manorial records and inquests post mortem. To find out what types are sources are considered reliable for pre-1700 research, see [[Space:England_Project_Reliable_Sources|Reliable sources for pre-1700 profiles in England]]. You will find useful links to resources, categorised by county, on the [[Space:England_County_Resource_Pages|England County Resources Pages]]. You can also search for online versions of other print sources on [https://www.british-history.ac.uk/ British History Online], [https://books.google.com/ Google Books], [https://archive.org/ Internet Archive] and [https://www.hathitrust.org/ HathiTrust]. ===Visitations=== [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heraldic_visitation Heraldic visitations] were tours of inspection throughout England, Wales and Ireland undertaken by officers of the College of Arms between 1530 to 1688. Their purpose was to regulate and register the coats of arms of the nobility, gentry and boroughs, and to record pedigrees of families. Many visitation records have been published and are available online. You will find some useful links on the [[Space:England_County_Resource_Pages|County Resources Pages]] and the [[Space:Visitations_Of_England_and_Wales|Visitations of England Wales Page]]. You need to be mindful that some of the older published visitations were based on unofficial copies of the original visitations and may contain errors. ===Wills=== Not everyone left a will and not all wills have survived. Before 1858, wills were proved in church courts. The highest court was the Prerogative Court of Canterbury (PCC), although there were more than 200 church courts, each with a separate register of wills. Which court dealt with a person's will depended on where they died, the location of their property and its value. You learn more about finding wills, probate and administration records in FamilySearch's guide to [https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/England_Probate_Records England Probate Records]. Some early and medieval wills have been published and are available online. You will find some useful links on the [[Space:England_County_Resource_Pages|County Resources Pages]]. You can also find copies of wills and probate records online on Ancestry (including PCC wills) and FindMyPast. More information can be found here: [[Space:Transcribing_and_Interpreting_English_Wills|Transcribing and Interpreting English Wills]] ==How to Edit 16th and 17th Century English Profiles== Editing the data fields for this time period is much the same as for more recent profiles. It is also worth reading the [[Space:England_Project_-_Profile_Standards|England Project Profile Standards]], which set outs the standards we use for profiles managed by the England Project. ===Categories=== Categories are the text links you see at the bottom of profiles. There is a handy link at the top of the profile to take you directly to the categories section if that profile has been added to any categories (as shown below). {{Image|file=England_Orphaned_Profiles_Images-29.jpg |align=l |size=xl }} {{Clear}}
Examples are: [[Category:Bodmin, Cornwall]] ''or'' [[Category:Pellyne Name Study]]
Putting a link like this onto a profile will group it together with other profiles who also have the same link. Thus, you may be able to see all the people who lived in Bodmin, for example, or who are part of the Pellyne Name Study (historical profiles).
Another important use for categories are the maintenance categories, for example [[Category:Devon, Needs Profiles Created]] ''or'' [[Category:Staffordshire, Needs Death Record]] To add a profile to a category, click on the category button above the text edit box. This will open a separate text box where you can start to type the name of the category you wish to place the profile in, as shown below. Once the name of the category you wish to use pops up, click on it and it will put the category in the correct position in the profile. {{Image|file=England_Orphaned_Profiles_Images-30.jpg |align=l |size=xl }} {{Clear}}
For more help with categories see '''[[Help:Categorization#How_to_Categorize|How to Categorize]]''' Note: when you are editing a profile and click 'Preview' to see how it will look before you save it - categories will not appear. Templates will show up; stickers will show up, but categories won't. [[Space:England_OPT_Categories|Here is a page]] explaining how to create categories. ===Templates=== Templates are specific words or phrases between a pair of double curly brackets, which create a banner. They are always placed at the top of the profile. Here are some you may see when editing English profiles. '''1. The England Project box'''
If you come across a profile with this in the text {{England}} it will present as this:
{{England}} This indicates that the England Project is the main Profile Manager of this profile. This is the only reason the England Project box is added to a profile. If you wish to indicate that a person was born in England, you will use the England Sticker (see below). '''2. Research Boxes''' are added to profiles when more research is needed.
{{Unsourced}} ''or'' {{Unsourced|Devon}} ''or'' {{Unsourced|AnotherCounty}} puts the unsourced profile onto the relevant county's Unsourced Profiles page for anybody (but especially the Sourcerers) to work on. Another frequently used template is {{Estimated Date}}, where the birth date is calculated or estimated. The reason for giving that estimation should be given in the biography or research notes section. It gives this banner in a profile:
{{Estimated Date}} [[Space:England_OPT_Templates|This page]] gives further details about templates and stickers. ===Stickers=== Stickers are placed on the profile in the Biography Box to note something important about the person, or to honour them. There may be up to five stickers on a profile, but any one of them must be removed if the Profile Manager objects. The code goes immediately underneath the heading : ==Biography==.
Here are some examples of stickers:
::{{England Sticker}}{{England Sticker}}

::{{England Sticker|Warwickshire}}{{England Sticker|Warwickshire}}

::{{English Ancestor Sticker}}{{English Ancestor Sticker}}

::{{Died Young}} {{Died Young}}

Here is the [[Help:Stickers| WikiTree Help Page on Stickers]] ===Where do Categories, Templates and Stickers go?=== This is the order in which you must place the codes: ::[[Category:xxx]]
::{{Template:xxx}}
::==Biography==
::{{Sticker}}
''narrative biography about the person'' ::==Sources==
:: ::==Acknowledgments== ===Repeated use of the same source=== Here's how to use the same source citation multiple times. The first time you use it, include a "name" inside the ref tag, like this: ::Weaver F W. Somerset Medieval Wills, 1531-1588. London: Harrison and Sons, 1905. Page 70-1. The next time you cite this source, you can just use this: :: Done this way, all subsequent footnotes for this same source will point to the same footnote at the bottom of the page. Note that " in the example above is a quotation mark, not two apostrophes. For examples of how to cite some common types of English records, see [[Space:England_Orphan_Trail:_Citation_templates|England Orphan Trail: Citation templates]]. ===Citing sources from subscription websites=== To find out how to cite sources from subscription websites, such as Ancestry and Findmypast, see [[Space:England_OT_citations_behind_paywall|Citations Behind a Paywall]]. ==The Genealogical Proof Standard== The Genealogical Proof Standard is a method used to make genealogical conclusions with reasonable certainty. The standard sets out five essential steps for accurate research: * Reasonably exhaustive research has been completed. * Each statement of fact has a complete and accurate source citation. * The evidence is reliable and has been skillfully correlated and interpreted. * Any contradictory evidence has been resolved. * The conclusion has been soundly reasoned and coherently written.

[[Category: Auckland Cemetery Free-Space Pages]] [[Category: Otahuhu, Auckland]] [[Category: Otahuhu Catholic Cemetery, Otahuhu, Auckland]] == About == The Catholic Cemetery at Otahuhu is also known as '''Hutton Street Cemetery.''' In 2012, there was an incidence of illegal dumping of fill in the cemetery, that damaged graves, and prompted remediation. The north–south trending gully that bisects the cemetery had been partly filled with soil, concrete and other miscellaneous demolition materials from the dumping. The cemetery was identified as an archaeological site, with likely evidence of pre-European occupation. Following the submission of a Cemetery Conservation Plan the Diocese commissioned CFG Heritage Ltd to monitor the partial removal and contouring of the remaining fill, and the installation of storm water drainage in the Hutton Road Cemetery. See [http://www.cfgheritage.com/14_0568huttonstreet.pdf CFG Heritage report] on the background and remediation. Prior to the CFG survey of the cemetery there had been three previous surveys of the cemetery, one by Father Murphy during the early 20th century, another by Croker and Knight in 1986 and another of unknown date. Father Murphy, while in charge of the parish, mapped and recorded the cemetery as it was at the time, and his map was updated in later years by others. The survey by CFG and the consequent report notes the following comments on the condition of the cemetery:

Most of the plots within the cemetery show signs of damage. Other than the damage caused by the unconsented dumping, the cemetery exhibits general wear and tear that is expected within a historical graveyard, as well as a signifi cant amount of damage attributable to vandalism. Many markers are missing crucifixes, and there are headstones that appear to have been deliberately knocked over.
There is also damage in the cemetery due to natural disturbance. The natural slope of the gully and general ground subsidence related to decomposition and settling of grave fill has led to cracking and collapsing a number of graves and headstones and other grave items leaning out of vertical. Although there are not many trees within the cemetery, there are some invasive weeds which have also managed to crack and disfigure some of the graves.''

'''HISTORY'''
Like the Otahuhu Catholic Church, the Hutton Street cemetery was established in 1848. Although the oldest visible gravesite dates to 1861, it is likely that there are earlier unmarked graves present. The earliest recorded burial by the Otahuhu Catholic Church was the infant Charles Coyle on the 27th February 1851 and, although it is not mentioned in the records, the interment is likely to have been at Hutton Street. Despite these various mapping and recording exercises, there are still plots without headstones that are likely to contain burials but are not otherwise identified. '''LOCATION:'''

'''GPS Coordinates:''' -36.94361, 174.84901 == Interments == A table of interments will be placed below for the entering of information of individuals who have profiles on WikiTree. Buried in the cemetery is Reverend O’Hara, who was one of the first priests of the Otahuhu Parish. He took charge of the parish in 1863, which at the time extended as far south as Pokeno. He took regular missionary trips to Helensville, Puhoi, Dargaville and Whangarei, until his death in 1899.

[[Category: Auckland Cemetery Free-Space Pages]] [[Category: Otahuhu Cemetery, Otahuhu, Auckland]] [[Category: Otahuhu, Auckland]] = Otahuhu Cemetery = The Public cemetery in Otahuhu is situated on a block bordered by Atkinson Road, Luke Street and Church Street. The cemetery contains the official war graves of 5 men who served in the New Zealand forces during the First World War, and 9 from the Second World War. (For a list see the [http://www.wargraves.co.nz/Auckland/Otahuhu%20Public%20Cemetery/list.htm Wargraves page for Otahuhu Public Cemetery]). {{Image|file=Otahuhu_Cemetery_FreeSpace_Page-1.jpg |align=c |size=l |caption=Church Street Entrance }} On the opposite side of Church Street, which is the eastern border of the public cemetery, is the Holy Trinity Anglican Cemetery (see the Free-space page for that cemetery for more information on the Holy Trinity Memorial Park). There were two cemeteries in Otahuhu, Anglican and Catholic, but a need was apparent for interments for those of different denominations. Thus, the 3 acre Otahuhu Public Cemetery was constituted on 7 July 1880, to the west of the 1 acre Anglican Cemetery at the corner of Church and Luke Streets. The first Trustees were John Gordon, Joseph Elmsley M.D., Andrew Mackenzie Donald, Thomas Stringer and George Hotham. The Otahuhu Road Board administered the Public Cemetery from 1 August 1894 to 1912. By the 1890’s Anglicans and Catholics from the Otahuhu area were also being buried in the Public Cemetery, but unfortunately burial records date only from 7 February 1894. The Otahuhu Borough Council administered the Public Cemetery from 1912 to 1989 when it joined the new Auckland City. The Cemetery was closed in 1986. The Auckland City Council retains the records of those buried in the Public Cemetery. '''LOCATION:'''

[[Category: Otaki Cemetery, Otaki, Wellington]] [[Category: Otaki, Wellington]] [[Category:Wellington_Cemetery_Free_Space_Pages]] == Ōtaki Cemetery == Ōtaki Cemetery, set on 3.9 hectares of semi-rural land, is the oldest cemetery in Kāpiti. Records of interments date from 1896. The cemetery is administered by the Kāpiti Coast District Council. The cemetery is also now certified as a Natural Burials cemetery with areas of the cemetery set aside for this. "Natural Burials" return the body to the earth in nature’s own way. That means allowing conditions for speedy decomposition, and regeneration of a natural forest above the graves. '''Address:''' 40 Anzac Rd, Otaki 5512 '''LINKS'''

'''Otis''' is situated on the western side of Hancock County, being bounded on the north by Penobscot County, and on the South by Ellsworth. It is on the stage line from Bangor to Mariaville, which adjoins it on the east. The principal sheets of water are Beech Hill, Flood, Springy and Mountain ponds, emptying into Union River, or some of its branches. Of these, Flood's Pond covers one square mile; Beech Hill Pond, 1.85 square miles; and Mountain Pond, 1.25 square miles At Remick's Falls, at the foot of Flood's Pond, and also at the south part of the town, are saw-mills. The prevailing rock is mica-schist interstratified by an impure limestone. On the side next Mariaville the rock is a hard talcose slate and a kind of sandstone in alternate layers, placed perpendicularly. There is a cave in Oak Hill on the west side of Beech Hill Pond, which is 12 feet under ground, with rooms 7 feet by 10 feet. Ice and snow have been found in it on the 4th of July, by which it has gotten its name of the " Cold Cellar." The soil, as a whole, is productive when cultivated ; but much attention is given to lumbering.
     Otis was first occupied in 1805. It was incorporated in 1835, being named in honor of a proprietor. The first settlers were Isaac Frazier, N. M. Jellison, James Gilpatrick, and Allen Milliken. Otis furnished 35 men to the Union cause in the war of the Rebellion. The Free Baptists have a church, and a settled minister in the town. Otis has three public schoolhouses, valued at $400. The valuation of estates in 1870 was $26,407. In 1880 it was $34,725. The population in 1870 was 246. In 1880 it was 304. == Additional Resources == ::'''Web Sites''': * [https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Otis,_Hancock_County,_Maine_Genealogy Otis Maine ] at Family Search * [https://www.mainegenealogy.net/place_record.asp?place=otis Maine Genealogy Net] Resources for Genealogists and Family HistoriansGenealogy.net * [https://townofotis.com/handy-links/ Town of Otis] * [[Wikipedia:Otis, Maine|Otis Maine on WikiPedia]] ::'''Books:''' == Photos == {| Border = ''1''; text align = center |+ Photo Gallery ! style="width: 300px;" | ! style="width: 300px;" | ! style="width: 300px;" | |- |{{Image|file=Otis_Maine_One_Place_Study.jpg|caption=Beech Hill Pond, by Lorena Caler}} |{{Image|file=Otis_Maine_One_Place_Study.jpg|caption=Beech Hill Pond, by Lorena Caler}} |{{Image|file=Otis_Maine_One_Place_Study.jpg|caption=Beech Hill Pond, by Lorena Caler}} |- |{{Image|file=Otis_Maine_One_Place_Study.jpg|caption=Beech Hill Pond, by Lorena Caler}} |} == Sources ==

{{One Place Study|place=Otisco, New York|category=Otisco, New York One Place Study}} The goal of this project is to research the families and history of the town of [[:Category:Otisco, New York|Otisco]] (originally Otisco Center), [[:Category:Onondaga County, New York|Onondaga County, New York]]. Right now this project just has one member, me. I am [[Sheggrud-1|Sher Sheggrud]]. Here are some of the tasks that I think need to be done. I'll be working on them, and could use your help. * gathering the names of the founding families of Otisco. Some known surnames are Edinger, Gambell, Rice, and Munson. * Adding pictures of people and homes in and around Otisco and Tully Valley. *Filling in the gaps. Will you join me?

Thanks! ---- (moved from the category page) [[Davis-29906|Davis-29906]] 14:53, 18 July 2020 (UTC) Original name: Otisco Center The town was part of the former Central New York Military Tract. The town was first settled by outsiders around 1798, but permanent settlement began around 1801. The Town of Otisco was formed in 1806 from parts of other towns: Pompey, Marcellus, and Tully. The name "Otisco" may have been derived from the Iroquois name for Nine Mile Creek, Us-te-ke, meaning "bitter-nut-hickory". At least one older map, published in 1825, has the name spelled as "Ostisco". The name may also have been derived from the word ostickney, meaning "waters much dried away", or from the Onondaga word ostick, meaning "the water is low".

[[Category: Otter Tail County, Minnesota]] Welcome to the Otter Tail County, Minnesota project page! Otter Tail County was first mentioned in the history of Minnesota in an act of the state Legislature passed on March 18, 1858. The legislative act formally organizing the county was passed March 16, 1868. The governor of the state appointed Marcus Shaw and Chancey Whiting as the first county commissioners. They met at the house of Marcus Shaw in Clitherall on September 12, 1868 and proceeded to organize the county. From this date through 1873 the county was getting its county seat and territorial limits established. The name was derived from the Otter Tail Lake and River. The lake, from which the river was named, derived from the narrow sandbar which the Ojibwe said gave the impression of the tail of an otter."Otter Tail County Historical Society."

Mihin mainitut talonpojat vastasivat, että heidät oli vangitsemisella Viipurin linnaan pakotettu tekemään mainittu kontrahti, minkä kapteenikin myönsi, ja sen tähden eivät he voi samaista kontrahtia täyttää, koska kuninkaallinen edikti heidät siitä huojentaa, heillä kun on oma pöörtinsä [so. sukuoikeus tiloihinsa], mitä kapteeni ei voinut kiistää.

Mitä muuten kapteenilla voi olla heiltä saamisia heidän verojensa suorittamisessa, niin pitää kapteenin ensin tehdä heidän kanssaan vissi rätinki, koska he sanovat, etteivät ole mitään velkaa, ja jos siinä havaitaan, että he ovat oikeasti velkaa, pitää heidän se suorittaa ja maksaa. == Huomautuksia (notes) == * Alkuperäislähteestä kirjannut ja suomentanut (transcription from the original and translation into Finnish by) Seppo Sippu. * Vastaajista Lauri Heikinpoika on Puhakan, Yrjö Niilonpoika Tillin ja Matti Heikinpoika (Ala-)Liikkasen isäntä. * Vrt.

It had lost land, and territory to European countries. Mehmed V was Sultan of the Ottoman Empire during World War I. He declared war on the Allies in 1914. He died just before the end of the war in 1918. Tsar Nicholas II ordered the Russian army to invade Germany before Germany took them by surprise. Minister of war of Ottoman Empire, Enver Pasha started his army moving although they were still neutral. {{Image|file=Ottoman_Empire_in_the_Great_War-6.png |align=c |size=360 |caption=Kaiser Wilhelm w/ cane. }}{{clear}} Enver had entered into a secret treaty with the German ambassador. It was arranged that the Ottoman Empire was supposed to enter the war on the side of Central Powers the following day after Germany declared war against Russia. (it called for each other's aid if Russia attacked) Ottoman Empire was supposed to declare war the following day which it did. The Prime Minister Sait Halim, felt they should remain neutral, thus was upset Enver had side stepped him by signing the secret treaty. Enver also had support of Cemal Pasha, (head of the Navy) Sait Halim was over the paramilitary ( 40,000 force similar to French gendarmes). this empire included Turkey Syria, Arabia. {{Image|file=Ottoman_Empire_in_the_Great_War-1.png |align=c |size=320 |caption=declares war. }}{{clear}} Another factor involved warships being built in Britain for the Ottoman Empire. Yet when they went to collect the ships after sea trials, they learned Churchill had confiscated them for the War and Britain did not offer compensation. Third: the Ottoman empire is close to the Suez canal, which was the shortest route for Britain to its colonies, India, Far Eastern colonies and Australia.

[[Category: Ottonian Dynasty]] '''Ottonian dynasty''' The Ottonian dynasty was a dynasty of German Kings (919–1024), named after its first Emperor but also known as the Saxon dynasty after the family's origin. The family itself is also sometimes known as the Liudolfings, after its earliest known member Liudolf and one of its primary leading-names. The Ottonian rulers are also regarded as successors of the Frankish Carolingian dynasty. '''Ruling in Germany and the Holy Roman Empire'''
Although never Emperor, Henry I the Fowler, Duke of Saxony, was arguably the founder of this imperial dynasty, since his election as German king in 919 made it possible for his son, Otto the Great to take on the imperium. Under the reign of the Ottonian rulers, the kingdom of the Eastern Franks included of the duchies of Lorraine, Saxony, Franconia, Swabia, Thuringia, and Bavaria. Otto I inherited the Duchy of Saxony upon the death of his father in 936. He continued his father's work of unifying all of the German tribes into a single kingdom, greatly expanding the powers of the king at the expense of the aristocracy. Through strategic marriages and personal appointments, Otto installed members of his own family to the Kingdom's most important duchies. This reduced the various Dukes, who had previously been co-equals with the king, into royal subjects under the king's authority. Otto also transformed the Church in Germany into a major royal power base to which he donated charity and for the creation of which his family was responsible. After putting down a brief civil war, Otto defeated the Magyars in 955, ending the Hungarian invasions of Europe and as well as securing his hold over his kingdom. The victory against the pagan Magyars earned Otto the reputation as the savior of Christendom. By 961, Otto had conquered the Kingdom of Italy, which was a troublesome inheritance that none wanted, and extended the his Kingdom's borders to the north, east, and south. In control of much of central and southern Europe, the patronage of Otto and his immediate successors caused a limited cultural renaissance of the arts and architecture. By excluding the Bavarian line of Ottonians from the line of succession, Otto's son and successor Otto II strengthened Imperial authority and secured his own son's succession to the Imperial throne. During his reign, Otto II attempted to annex the whole of Italy into the Empire, bringing him into conflict with the Byzantine Empire and with the Saracens of the Fatimid Caliphate. Otto II's campaign against the Saracens ended in 982 following a disastrous defeat. In 983 Otto II experienced a major uprising of the Slavs against his rule. Otto II died suddenly in 983 at the age of 28 after a ten-year reign. Succeeded by his three-year old son Otto III as King, his sudden death plunged the Italy into crisis. During the regency rule of his widow, the Byzantine princess Theophanu, the Italy abandoned her husband's imperialistic policy and devoted herself entirely to furthering its own agenda in Italy. The childless Otto III was succeeded by Henry II in 1002, a son of duke Henry II, Duke of Bavaria who was a member of the Bavarian line of the Ottonians. Henry II spent the next several years consolidating his political power on his borders. He waged a campaign against Boleslaw I of Poland and then moved successfully into the Kingdom of Italy. After the extinction of the Ottonian dynasty with the death of Henry II in 1024 the crown passed to Conrad II of the Salian dynasty. Liutgarde, a daughter of Otto I had married the Salian Duke Conrad the Red of Lorraine. His great-grandson was Conrad II. When Rudolph III, King of Burgundy died on 2 February 1032, Conrad II successfully claimed also this Kingship on the basis of an inheritance Emperor Henry II had extorted from the former in 1006, after having invaded Burgundy to enforce his claim after Rudolph attempted to renounce it in 1016.

It is also an indoor cemetery, as the floor consists entirely of grave plates, coving an estimated 12,000 burials. The Oude Kerk has a huge baroque organ known for its unique sound. The "Grand Organ" was built between 1724-1726 by master organ builder [[Vater-85|Christian Vater]] of Hanover, Germany. This particular organ has 54 gold plated oak pipes. There are two less known organs: a so called transept organ in the left nave, was built in 1658 by Hans Wolff Schonat. As this smaller organ was rarely used, the pipes from it were taken away in 1821, and were used to build the Zuiderkerk organ. The instrument case hanged empty for a century above the church’s transept, until fifty years ago, when two German organ makers named Jürgen Ahrend and Gerhard Brunzema were contracted to rebuild the organ (1964-1965). This organ was reconstructed and retuned in 2002 by the Dutch firm Flentrop, Zaandam, to sound again like a 17th century instrument. The Oude Kerk has also a third, small organ: the cabinet organ constructed by Deetlef Onderhorst in 1767. In 1946, the organ was repaired by organ builder A. Blik, who also modernised and made it electric. Most recent restorations were in 1977 and in 2001, when the organ was moved to the Oude Kerk choir. The church is a year long venue for an important series of concerts of organ music and a home each summer for The International Organ Festival. Being an ancient fixture in Amsterdam, it was fashionable over the centuries to reproduce the church's ornate grave plates in pencil or etching. The profile of [[Seys-2|Anna Seys]] shows both a photo of her grave plate and the 20th century water color. {{Image|file=Oude_Kerk-8.jpg |align=l |size=l |caption=Model of unexecuted Rembrandtsplein church by Nicolaas Listingh [ -1705]. }} '''Famous Burials:''' * [[Sweelinck-1|Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck]], famed teacher of the organ; organist at the Oude Kerk from 1577 to 1621. * [[Van_Uylenburgh-1|Saskia van Uylenburgh]], beloved wife of painter Rembrandt van Rijn.

A link is provided in the notes for the 1901 and 1911 census. Please note that these may not always work if the townland was not available on the census in question. The census site may also substitute a similar name so be prepared for unexpected results! Similar for Griffith's valuation links which may show multiple names. Where a townland has been transferred to a new parish the census links are on the new parish page. :If the townland has a category it will be linked in the table below. If there is no link and you need the category please contact [[Meredith-1182|David]] to get the category created or [https://www.wikitree.com/contact/category/ put in a request for the category to be created].

[[Category:Lincoln Assassination Plot]] [[Category:Our American Cousin]] == Background == On 14 Apr 1865 [[Lincoln-103|'''President and Mrs. Lincoln''']] attended an evening performance of ''Our American Cousin'' at Ford's Theater in Washington, D.C. Halfway through Act III Scene 2, actor Harry Hawk - playing the lead role of Asa Trenchard - uttered the comedic line: "Don't know the manners of good society, eh? Well, I guess I know enough to turn you inside out, old gal - you sockdologizing old man trap!" During the ensuing laughter, actor and Confederate sympathizer, [[Booth-580|'''John Wilkes Booth''']] - who was not a part of the cast - raised a Derringer pistol and fatally shot the President in the back of the head. Booth then leaped from the President's box onto the stage and made his escape through the back of the theater to a horse he had left waiting in the alley. == Project Goals == The goal of this project is to create and develop profiles for each of the now mostly forgotten ''Our American Cousin'' actors, musicians, managers and crew members employed at Ford's Theater on the night President Lincoln was assassinated. In the days, weeks, and months that followed this tragic event, these individuals were caught up in a terrifying round of arrests and interrogation that, for many, would profoundly impact the trajectory of the remained of their lives. If you would like to join this project, simply post a comment here on this page, in [https://www.WikiTree.com/g2g G2G], or [https://www.WikiTree.com/index.php?title=Special:PrivateMessage&who=28493123 send me a private message]. == Plot == ''Our America Cousin'' was a three-act farce by English playwright [[Taylor-92753|'''Tom Taylor''']]. Its story centers on an unrefined American named Asa Trenchard, who is introduced to his aristocratic English relatives when he travels to England to claim a large estate. == Profiles == (c) = Connected to the Big Tree ==='''Management'''=== :[[Ford-16443|John T.

Bogar's terrific book, '''''Backstage at the Lincoln Assassination''': The Untold Story of the Actors and Stagehands at Ford's Theater'' (Washington, DC: Regenery History, 2013). The orchestra list comes from Dave Taylor's 11 Aug 2018 blog entry, The Ford’s Theatre Orchestra at [https://lincolnconspirators.com/2018/08/11/the-fords-theatre-orchestra '''LincolnConspirators.com''']. As no list of orchestra members was ever compiled at the time of the assassination, Taylor cautions that evidence supporting the presence of each of these individuals "''is, overall, extremely weak and varies greatly from man to man. Every name must be taken with a grain of salt and, aside from William Withers, we cannot guarantee that any of these men were actually present.''"

Joseph Gill, shows up in the 1870 and 1880 census, has a marriage to Julia Griffin and they have a son. Cannot find Joseph prior to the 1870 census. He was a farmer and he also worked on the Canals in Parke County, Indiana. Cannot find an actual death date other than a newspaper clipping that was in the paper about his death stating that he was born in Virginia. One of the census confirms this. He did not own land because his wife Julia owned the land. While walking through the family cemetery came upon a tombstone not far from Julia's that says "Elizabeth, wife of Joseph Gill" the inscription indicates that there were children. Now if this is Joseph's wife, what happened to the children. this was in 1856 when Elizabeth died. He married Julia in 1876. Their son was born in 1878. According to the census and the obit he was born between 1800-1804. Questions that need answered: Who was Joseph? Was Elizabeth his wife? What happened to those children? Where is he actually buried (not able to find tombstone or actually plat)? [[Category:Family Mysteries]]

We are stymied at finding out what happened to our maternal grandmother Josephine May Johnson. Josephine was born to Edward Johnson and Isabella Cushing in Liverpool in 1883. She accompanied Isabella and her siblings to Karachi, India when Edward took the position of Harbor Pilot for the port of Karachi. The family lived in Manora, at the end of the land spit that protects the Karachi harbor. Our grandfather Frederick Edward Piggott was assigned to the Royal Garrison Artillery, and was stationed in Manora in 1902, when he married Josephine. They lived in several locations in England, India and Hong Kong. Around 1912 Josephine "disappeared". The family lore was that she found a lover and ran off to Canada. We have found no record of a divorce or death in England around this time period, and we have found no record of her on a voyage to Canada. She has simply disappeared. [[Category:Family Mysteries]]

Who are the parents of George Rainford? George Rainford celebrated his birthday as 1 Jun 1810 in London. He was thought to be the son of Thomas Rainford & Sarah (formerly Sweetman) but their son lived--he was born 14 Nov 1810 Abode: William St Occupation: Cabinet Maker Register: Baptisms 1810 - 1812, Page 288, and he's not our George. George married Harriet Strickland 3 Sep 1834 at St Marys, Lambeth, Surrey, England, and the marriage was witnessed by her father, Charles Strickland since she was a minor. Harriet's mother, Catherine, was also a Strickland. George and Harriet appeared with children in the 1841 voter reg :Medway Street, London, Parish of St. John and the 1841 census: St Johns Westn, St John The Evangelist, Middlesex, England. Based on baptismal records, they also lived at Moody's Gardens, Westminster, Middlesex, and St Margaret, Westminster. On 28 May 1849 they arrived at the New York Port with children George Charles (1839) Mary Elizabeth (1840) Harriet Catherine (1845). Two infant sons named Richard Edward were buried in England. In the US 1850 census they lived in Joliet, Will, Illinois where George was a physician, with a US-born son named Robert (1849). (There are no medical school records in England for George.) Harriet's father owned Strickland Chocolate Manufacturing Company and willed it to his sons, Charles Jr and Richard Shepherd Strickland. But they dissolved their business partnership. Harriet's brother Richard also emigrated to the US, appearing in census 1850, working as a laborer,living in Joliet with wife Mary, dau Catherine age 4, Edward Reid 60, Mary Reid 49 his in-laws. Harriet died in Joliet 7 Oct 1851 at age 35. Her brother Richard disappears. George remarried to Margaret Wilcox and they had 12 children together before he died in Lake Village, Indiana 6 Mar 1892. He was licensed to practice medicine in Indiana. -We have found no births or baptisms for George Rainford, born 1810 in London or therabouts. It's possible they were NC, but nothing there either. -Harriet's brother in law, John Hutchins Bayliss, MRCS, was a practicing surgeon in at the Royal South London Dispensary till 1859 when he died and was buried in Norwood Cemetery. There was a family association with MILTON RAINFORD, the comic and Shakespearean actor in Philadelphia and New York, but we're unable to confirm whether it was friendship or blood. Milton was born in London abt 1831, married Mary Agnes Wynne in Maidstone, Kent in 1851, and arrived in New York in 1855. He was mentored by actor/theater owner WILLIAM EVANS BURTON of New York, who called Milton his nephew. Milton is the son of Maria Burton (1798-1859) and Edward Rainford (1792-1876) of Kent.

[[Vetter-108|Otto Vetter]]'s photo appears twice in my grandmother's photo album but we have no idea who he was. The profile information for Otto comes from Federal census records and records found at familysearch.org. Several Otto Vetter's were possible candidates to be the man in the photo but I assumed, based on his appearance, that he was born about 1880, was not married in 1911 (since he gave his photo to my unmarried grandmother) and that his residence was New York City.

[[Category:Wellington North, Ontario]] [[Category:Arthur Township, Canada West]] This space is a '''work in progress'''. It is a little history about the farm, the area, and its previous owners. If you have information to add please contact me or leave a comment. ==Our Farm== A long time ago this was a land covered with trees. It was choked full of maple and beech on the high ground, and elm, birch, and hemlock on the low ground. Watered by melting snow and seasonal rains that meandered down through the rolling forests filling the low lands which spilled into waterways, crowded with an assortment of fish, that threaded their way through the lush wilderness. A vast area heavily populated with bears, beavers, wolves, deer, rabbits, and mosquitoes. For centuries the Indigenous tribes roamed the footpaths of these backwoods. In 1798 this part of Upper Canada was called Indian Land.'''1798 Map''' https://www.archives.gov.on.ca/en/maps/textdocs/districts1798big.aspx Map scanned from the Economic Atlas of Ontario / Atlas Économique de l'Ontario W.

Page 402, “Survey and Settlement.” In 1835, the Canadian government opened up this area which then became known as the ''Queen's Bush''. When the northern area of Wellington County was surveyed in 1841 by Provincial Land Surveyor John MacDonald, and D.B. Papineau it was named Arthur Township - after Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington.'''Wellington County, Ontario''' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellington_County,_Ontario More than 67,000 acres were divided up to create roads and 50-acre parcels of land. Crown Lands on the roads were given to settlers with the option to buy the back 50 after performing certain settlement duties. Regulations included:'''The Queen’s Bush''' Page 29.'''The History of Wellington County''', page 15, “Crown Lands.” * Being a subject of Queen Victoria, male, and over the age of 18 years. * Clear 12 acres of land in four years, counting from the 1st of January, following the taking up of the land; and put into a state of cultivation. * Clear and fence five acres, and clear the road allowance across the front of the property, for each 100 acres granted. * Build a house at least 18 x 24 feet, and cover it completely with split shingles. * Live on the land for eighteen months * Sign an Affidavit before a Justice of the Peace, that all requirements had been met. === [[McQueen-3492|Donald McQueen]] === About 1850 when a Scotsman by the name of Donald McQueen came to the area looking for land, most of the properties along the major road – The Garafraxa Road (later called The Owen Sound Road, now known as Highway 6) which had been completed the previous year – were already occupied. So, he went in one road to the east. He obtained a Location Ticket from a Crown Land Agent for the south 50-acre section of Lot 5 Concession 9.'''The History of Wellington County''', page 12, “The Garafraxa Road,” & page 15 “The Land Registry Offices.” Several historians have quoted Arthur Township resident George Cushing, Esq. as he described the difficulties and hardships of the first settlers: :''Imagine a settler from the ‘Old Land,’ without any knowledge of clearing land, unskilled in the use of the axe, no keen, lance-toothed saws to be had, like we have at present, commencing to clear a fifty or a hundred-acre lot of this dense and mighty forest. :''Many stories of hardships endured in the old log shanties without proper doors, and the wolves howling in the forest; no flour in the house for six weeks, and potatoes the only bill of fare; the carrying on the back of sacks of flour all the way from Fergus; men shouldering their heavy grain cradle and walking thirty miles and more to Guelph, in a day for the harvest.''''''Memories of Mount Forest and surrounding townships''' https://digitalcollections.ucalgary.ca/archive/Memories-of-Mount-Forest-and-surrounding-townships--Minto--Arthur--West-Luther--Normanby--Egremont--Proton-2R3BF1OG4FD69.html Mount Forest Confederate. corporate, Wright, Arthur Walker.

Donald Mcqueen (38y), married in Arthur, Wellington, Ontario, Canada. Born in Scotland. According to an overview of the 1861 census, Arthur Township had grown to a population of 3,597 who held 49,617 acres valued at $599,720. There were 13, 034 acres under cultivation; 9,778 under crops; 3,247 under pasture; 36,583 wood and wild lands.'''1867 Gazetteer and Directory of Wellington County'''. Irwin & Burnham, Publishers. https://digitalarchive.tpl.ca/search/37131055373039d image 35: page 8, McQueen, Donald – Con. 9, Lot 5 f [''sic'', freeholder] It is interesting to note that there was a complete crop failure in 1859-60 in the township. Council came to the rescue by supplying cornmeal to those in need.'''History of the former Township of Arthur''' https://www.wellington-north.com/community/history/former-township-arthur Were they a family in need? Did they accept the handout of cornmeal from council? During his time at this property, neighbors included Thomas Campbell, Neil MacDougall, Alexander MacMillan, Duncan McLellan, John Campbell, Sydney Smith, Peter Robinson, John Nightingale and his son Robert Nightingale Sr. (who would later buy the farm), Peter Campbell, and Robert Scott.'''From Then Till Now''' – A History of Arthur Township 1850-1985, Edited by Campbell Cork. Printed by I B Printing Company Limited, Durham, ON. (1986). Pages 227, 259, 300, 319, 336, 338, 339, 354. Donald and his family probably saw progression as tracks were laid along the west side of The Owen Sound Road, just 2 km away. By the end of 1871 ''The Toronto, Grey and Bruce Railway '' locomotives rumbles and whistles were likely to be heard in the distance as they passed over Sideroad 3, and made their way to and from Mount Forest. Donald lived at the farm until his death in 1873. The land was transferred to his wife, Elizabeth, which she sold to Duncan McMillan a few months later. === Duncan McMillan === Duncan McMillan expanded the property in 1874 when he received a Crown Patent for the adjacent 50-acre parcel on the north side. He also cleared some land before he sold it five years later to Archibald Campbell. {{Image|file=Our_Farm_1-1.jpg |align=c |size=l |caption=''It was rumored, somewhere in the vicinity of this maple bush and farmland (the north half) a one-room log cabin was built by Duncan McMillan. There are no signs of its existence. In the past - up until the 1970s - this maple bush was tapped for its sweet syrup. It covers about five acres, and has been logged a few times over the generations.'' }} === Archibald Campbell === === [[Nightingale-2075|Robert Nightingale Sr.]] === === [[Nightingale-2072|Robert Jr. Henry Nightingale]] & [[McMillan-7934|Belle McMillan]] === '''The Old Yellow Brick House''' {{Image|file=Our_Farm_1-2.jpg |align=c |size=l |caption=''It has been said that the Nightingales, either Senior or Junior, built the yellow brick farmhouse. (photo from late 1920s or early 1930s)'' }} In the 1921 census, when Howard Neal owned the property, it was recorded to be a 6-room brick house, which fits its description. Facing the house from this angle is looking to the west. Later, a small enclosed porch, about 6' x 12', was added to fill in the L-shape. If you walked in the door shown in the picture, you would be standing in a very small foyer that might have been 4' x 4'. A staircase straight ahead to the second level. To the right a small room, approximately 12' x 12'. To the left a kitchen, approximately 12' x 18'. On the back-side of the staircase was another set of stairs leading to the basement, with a second outside entry directly across from it. This narrow passageway contained a third doorway which lead into the second 12' x 12' room. Later the wall came down between the two 12-foot square rooms with an archway put in. That also eventually came down. In the late 1960s or early 70s a hole was cut into the floor of the northwest part of this long room to install a combination fire-oil furnace, because the door and stairway were not wide enough. Upstairs there were three rooms with an open area hall. The smallest room was converted into a bathroom when plumbing was added to the house (date yet to be determined). The open area was closed in about 1990 to make another room. On the morning of 22 March 1999, a fire started in the basement in an electrical box. It quickly burnt a hole through both the first and second floors and filled the house with toxic smoke. The house was not completely destroyed, but there was enough damaged that the house had to be torn down. Most of the bricks were salvaged and used to make a wall in the basement of a new house. Some were used as walk-ways around the house. === [[Neal-9124|Leslie Howard Neal]] === Howard Neal was a young bachelor when he purchased the farm in 1920. The 23-year-old was living alone in the 6-room brick house when the 1921 census was recorded.'''1921 Census''' , https://recherche-collection-search.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/Census/Index Arthur Township No. 3, North Wellington, Wellington County, Ontario, Canada. Page 10, Dwelling 105, Family 105. Home owned; Brick, 6 rooms. Howard Neil, Head, single, age 23, born Ontario In the Arthur Township history book, it states that "the original barn was burned to the ground". At this time, the statement needs verification. Howard had the farm for three years before selling in to Richard G. Morley. === [[Morley-4737|Richard Greenly Morley]] === Richard G. Morley and his wife, the former [[Bilton-414|Margaret Bilton]], came to this property in 1922 or 1923. They farmed the land and tapped the maple trees. As indicated in the 1931 census, the couple were among the first to have a radio in the neighborhood.'''1931 Census''' Arthur Township No. 3, Wellington North, Ontario, Canada, Page 9 (image 10) https://recherche-collection-search.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/census/index1931 Richard & Margaret Morley. When Richard died in 1947, Margaret rented the land out and lived in the house until the spring of 1949. She sold to Jack and Lillie (McRobb) Keith. === Jack & Lillie Keith === === Fred & Doreen Hobson === === [[Andrews-23480|Stanley]] & [[Morrison-21186|Florence]] Andrews === Stanley and his family lived here from 1961 to 1966. He built the "L" onto the barn, to house pigs.'''First-hand information''' from Stanley's daughter, Berniece, as written in a message to [[Jensen-17610|K Carter]]. === The Carter Family === {{Image|file=Our_Farm_1-5.jpg |align=c |size=l |caption=''An aerial view of the farm buildings as they looked in the mid 1970s.'' }} '''1999 House Fire''' On the morning of 22 March 1999, Heather from Canada Post was on her mail delivery route. She stopped her vehicle beside the mailbox and rolled down the car window. The winds were strong that morning, blowing the loose snow around as it came down. She was assaulted by the rush of wind, but also by the strong smell of smoke. There was no visible sign of a fire, but with the unusual odor Heather quickly noted the emergency number and drove for less than a minute to the neighbor, Keith MacMillian, to place the 911 call. If she had not stopped to make a delivery, she would not have realized there was something amiss. They returned together, to see if anyone was home. An old glass screen door was used at the entrance to an unheated, addition that we called the back-kitchen which served as a mud room - a space to house the chest freezer, and collect outer-wear during the warmer seasons. Upon entry to this area, to the immediate left, was a solid wood door to gain access to the main house. By this time Hubby's father had arrived at the scene and wanted to go into the house to see if anyone was inside. Father and Keith made their way into the back-kitchen. The door knob was warm to touch and Arnold unwisely decided to open the door and was assailed with thick black smoke. He swiftly pulled it shut, and exited the area. All they could do was sit back and wait for the fire department to show up. Shortly before noon, Mount Forest Firefighters arrived, but not without a few wrong turns. They drove past our road and headed in the direction of another address that consisted of the same emergency number. Only difference was the road name. A lesson learned - state the road name along with the fire number. Hubby was choring at our other farm and was on his way home when he saw the fire trucks turn down our sideroad. When he arrived home, firefighters had set up a portable reservoir in the driveway and it was being filled by a tanker truck. They asked him a great deal of questions. Was there anyone in the house? (Thankfully, no.) Where is the power shut off? What is the layout of the rooms? Then the fire chief pointed to the wood pile and asked, “Where is the wood stove located?” “There isn’t any,” Hubby replied, and finally convinced the chief that the logs were only used for bon fires, not as a heating source. When the firemen arrived, the fire was struggling. The 1 ½ story yellow brick farmhouse was filled with smoke, and they had difficulty locating the flames. When a window on the second floor was broken - for access to the upstairs – the fire sprang back to life. The crew said the fire had reached the roof. That it was at the point of re-igniting before they came upon the scene. That a great deal more could have been lost if Heather had not placed the call when she did. After four hours, the blaze was extinguished, and the damage revealed. A fire investigator determined that the fire started in an electrical box for the furnace. Located in the basement stairwell the fire quickly burned the set of steps, making a hole through the main floor staircase leading to the second floor – which also destroyed the living room wall. The second floor, outside the two north bedrooms, was non-existent, as well as, a section of wall was missing in the northwest bedroom. The fire followed the route to the northeast bedroom into an uninsulated wall where it sucked at the outside air through the cracks in the brick wall. The outside of the building looked the same, except for a couple broken windows and a hole in the part of the roof made by the firemen to extinguish the flames. Otherwise, smoke, fire, and water damage left the house unhabitable. That first sleepless night, we stayed with Hubby’s parents. We remained with them for the next five months, until our new place was built. {{Image|file=Our_Farm_1-3.jpg |align=c |size=l |caption=''The old yellow brick farmhouse a few weeks after the fire and before demolition. (taken 13 April 1999)'' }} Insurance required three quotes on the cost of renovating the building back to its original state before the fire. This proved to be costly, since the walls consisted of lath and plaster with paint, wallpaper, and paneled walls. And floors that entailed the old narrow hardwood flooring covered with linoleum or carpet. (We were worried that the insurance company would not approve of rebuilding and decided if our claim was denied, we would take a payout and take out a loan for the remaining amount to rebuild.) Thank goodness, permission was granted to rebuild! Plans were made to build a new bungalow in the same spot as the old dwelling. The bricks were salvaged from the old house before the skeleton was tore down a month later. To claim insurance for the household items, a cleaning company was hired to catalogue every item found within the confines of the house – most of which ended up in the dumpster because of smoke and water damage. The whole ordeal was overwhelming. Surprisingly, a great deal of our ‘stuff’ was recognizable, which made it undeniable about what we possessed. Items tucked into closets, cupboards, chests, and drawers were saved (unless they were plastics which distorted from the high temperatures). We were fortunate enough to have photographs intact. {{Image|file=Our_Farm_1-4.jpg |align=c |size=l |caption=''Flyer advertising a fundraising dance for 17 April 1999.'' }} Less than a month after the fire, a community dance was organized for our benefit. The support, generosity and kindness of the community was greatly appreciated in our hour of need. == Sources == * '''1877 Township of Arthur Map''' https://digital.library.mcgill.ca/countyatlas/weli-m-arthur.htm D.McMillan * '''From Then Till Now, A History of Arthur Township 1850-1985.'''

[[Category:Our Lady of Angels School Fire]][[Category: Illinois, Fires]] ''For a grouping of profiles of victims, see [[:Category: Our Lady of Angels School Fire|the category for Our Lady of Angels School Fire]] ===Our Lady of Angels School Fire=== On Monday, December 1, 1958, a fire broke out at Our Lady of the Angels School in Chicago, Illinois, shortly before classes were to be dismissed for the day. The fire originated in the basement near the foot of a stairway. The elementary school was operated by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago and had an enrollment of approximately 1600 students. A total of 92 pupils and 3 nuns ultimately died when smoke, heat, fire, and toxic gases cut off their normal means of escape through corridors and stairways. Many more were injured when they jumped from second-floor windows which, because the building had a raised basement, were nearly as high as a third floor would be on level ground (c. 25 ft.). The disaster was the lead headline story in American, Canadian, and European newspapers. Pope John XXIII sent his condolences from the Vatican in Rome. The severity of the fire shocked the nation and surprised educational administrators of both public and private schools. The disaster led to major improvements in standards for school design and fire safety codes. Our Lady of the Angels was an elementary school comprising kindergarten through eighth grades. It was located at 909 North Avers Avenue in the Humboldt Park area on Chicago's West Side, on the northeast corner of West Iowa Street and North Avers Avenue (some sources describe the school as "in Austin"). The neighborhood had originally been heavily Irish-American, but gradually developed in the first half of the twentieth century into a largely Italian-American middle-class community. The area was also home to several other first, second, and third-generation immigrant groups, including Polish Americans, German Americans, and Slavic Americans. Most of the families in the immediate neighborhood were Roman Catholic. The school was one of several buildings associated with the large Roman Catholic parish; others included a church, a rectory, which was adjacent to the church, a convent of the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which was across Iowa Street from the school, and two buildings one block east on Hamlin Avenue referred to by the parish as Joseph Hall and Mary Hall respectively, which housed kindergarten and first-grade classes. The Hamlin Avenue buildings were not involved in the fire, and aside from some minor smoke inhalation problems (no deaths or serious injuries), neither were the first floor of the north wing, the entire south wing, or the annex. The total of the devastation was confined to the second floor of the north wing. The north wing was part of a two-story structure built in 1910, but remodeled several times over the years. That wing originally consisted of a first-floor church and a second-floor school. The entire building became a school when a new, much larger church was opened in 1939. A south wing also dating from 1939 was built and was connected in 1951 by an annex to the north wing. The two original buildings and the annex formed a U-shape, with a narrow fenced courtyard between.

If each of us were to write a Life of Mother, each would be different from all the rest. No one sees through another's eyes, nor does he feel the same about a person, a place, or an experience as any other individual. Like the blind men who went to see the elephant, each of us would describe Mother in his own way, emphasizing different traits and qualities which she possessed. It should not be surprising, therefore, to anyone if my interpretation doesn't correspond in detail with his own. I am sure, however, that it will in the main. Actually, each of us knew Mother at a different age. For instance, she was ten years older when I was born than when Jessie started the family circle; it’s possible that the three years between Adam and myself may have worked their changes too. The novelty of an infant in the house had long since worn off when I arrived, it's care now a matter of routine. Mother had matured; life on the frontier had worked its changes. But, fundamentally, she never changed and retained those fine qualities that marked her youth faith, courage, loyalty and love. This narrative is not submitted as a polished bit of writing; in fact, it is far from that. Nor is it a complete story of Mother's life. There has been one revision and this is it. Brothers and sisters were asked for criticisms and corrections; their response has been appreciated and such suggestions as they have offered have been incorporated in this text. It is longer, by several pages, than the original draft, mainly to allow a more extensive coverage of members of the Currie and Tindall families. This seemed justifiable only because it presents information that may be of interest to the genealogists among Mother’s descendants. Death has struck twice within the family circle since this work was started in the Autumn of 1964. Adam suffered a stroke on September 10, 1964, and passed away on February 21, 1965. Jessie was operated on on January 25, 1965 and died on April 24 following. Both had read, or had read to them, the original manuscript and had expressed their appreciation of it. Its preparation was indeed "a labor of love". For me, Mother has been brought into sharper focus than ever before and has become a far more wonderful person than I had ever conceived her to be. R.C.T. === BEGINNINGS === Agnes Galbraith Currie, first child of Peter and Jessie Young Currie, was born in the Stock Bridge section of Edinburgh, Scotland, on August 18, 1844. In a letter written shortly after her birth, her father describes her as "a stout and happy child" given to laughter and good cheer. Like most children, she endured the misery of most childhood diseases----measles, whooping cough, etc.. At five or six years of age, she enrolled in her father’s private school and proved to be a good pupil, winning prizes in English and Latin. She also, at a very early age, became a real helper in the home, easing the load of her Mother, whose responsibilities with a growing family often became burdensome. The Currie School had been founded several years before her birth by her grandfather, Robert Currie, on Thistle Street. His son, Peter Currie, Mother's father, had joined him in the enterprise when he graduated from the University of Edinburgh in 1840 or 1841 and he very soon became Head Master. At about the same time the school was moved to No. 5. George Street, where it remained until Grandfather's death in 1858. Nina and I visited the building in 1954 and were assured by a long-term tenant that it had been little changed, if at all, in the century that had intervened. Its reputation for scholarship was outstanding, and it drew pupils from many of the leading families of Edinburgh. An interesting reference to the school is contained in a letter, dated 1911, from a Jane Greene of New Bushey, Hertfordshire, England. It was in answer to one from Mother prompted by an article dealing with Mr. Currie's School in the Weekly Scotsman. Mrs. Greene writes of her attendance at that school, her recollection of Mother as a girl of six, three years younger than herself, and of a bloody battle between two Currie School boys and two boys from a rival school nearby. She wrote: "Mr. Currie called them up and gave them a good palming. It seems he had been watching through a window. After that the young rascals hid the taws in the chimney where they were burned and seen no more." It should perhaps be explained that the taws was a strap of leather with a two-inch slit, or slits, at one end a very effective instrument of punishment. Continuing her story, Mrs. Greene tells how Mr. Currie substituted a cane for the missing taws. There were no sparings of the rod and spoiling of the child in those days. More interesting, however, is Mrs. Greene's reference to Mother's dearest girlhood friend, Agnes Hately. She calls her "a modest little girl", which she no doubt was, "and so nice". This was also the judgment of Thomas Carter, Berwick-on-Tweed, another dear friend of Mother's, who, in a letter written by his son, Walter, and addressed to Nina and me, on the S. S. "Queen Elizabeth", at Southampton, in October, 1959. was said to have been, in his earlier years, very fond of two Agneses---Agnes Currie and Agnes Hately. And I can personally vouch for the fact that she has never lost the grace and charm of her youth. In May, 1909, I spent an unforgettable afternoon with her in her lovely home at 84, Polwarth Terrace, Edinburgh. She was then the wife of Henry Macintosh, one of the city's leading citizens, and was just as beautiful as a prized portrait Mother had of her, taken in maturity. There are perhaps a few interesting facts about Agnes Hately that, even though a bit out of sequence, should be recorded here. In the early 1870's she married the Reverend Mr. Wilson of the Scottish Presbyterian Church. They were soon sent as missionaries to the State of Kansas, served well in their field and became the parents of a boy and a girl. Following a breakdown in health, Mr. Wilson died, either in 1879 or in the early months of 1880, and the distraught widow decided to return to her native land. It was just at the time when father and Mother were to be married. How wonderful, thought Mother, to see her old friend again, and even more wonderful if she could attend the wedding. But it was not to be; their ships met in mid-Atlantic; they never met again. So near, and yet so far. But a regular correspondence kept them in touch with each other until Agnes Hately Macintosh died, sometime during the third decade of the twentieth century. Another story involves her father, Thomas Legerwood Hately, and her brother, Walter, the one the subject of a brief, but tender, biography, the other the writer of the first two chapters. Thomas Legerwood Hately was born at Greenlaw, in the Border Country in 1815, went to Edinburgh in his youth and became associated with the Thomas Nelson Publishing Company after a rather extended period with Ballantyne and Company, printers of Sir Walter Scott's works. Possessor of a fine tenor voice, it wasn't long before he was singing in some of the better church choirs of Edinburgh and developing a keener interest in the field of music, especially church music, than in the field of commerce. It was not surprising, therefore, after receiving encouragement from friends, professional musicians and church leaders, that he decided to make church music his life work. Congregational singing in the Scottish Presbyterian Church had reached low ebb in the 1830's. Ministers and church officials in general were alarmed and considering steps to be taken to improve the situation when Mr. Hately made his decision to commit his time and talent to the improvement of sacred music in general, especially the singing of the hymns and psalms by the congregations. They immediately commissioned him to visit churches in the larger communities throughout the country for the purpose of improving the musical programs. His methods were most effective---a mass meeting of choir members and others interested in music just to sing the better hymns and psalm tunes; presentation of a simple method of sight-reading which he had developed himself, and training of prospective choir leaders and precentors. The above suggests the tenor of the biography Walter Hately had begun to write when he died suddenly in 1906. The task now fell to his gifted sister, Agnes Legerwood Macintosh, who added four chapters to the two her brother had already completed. Certainly it was a labor of love for her. She speaks of her father's gifts, as a superb musician, a scholar, a leader; she also speaks of his gentleness, his kindness and his patience. She tells of his love of fishing and his appreciation of all things beautiful; of happy days when he and his little brood of three (he was left a widower after eight years of married life) spent care-free hours beside the placid stream or in some wooded glen. She also stresses the evenings when her father skillfully led his children into the wonderland of literature and read with them the greatest Book of all. It's a slender little volume but perhaps as highly prized as any book in our library. On its fly leaf is inscribed the following: "With love from an old friend A. L. M. Dec. 1908". Of course, it had been addressed to Mother, and the A. L. M. stands for Agnes Legerwood Macintosh. === EARLY INFLUENCES === It's often said that to know a person one must know his antecedents and that blood counts in determining the quality and character of an individual. These phrases fall glibly from our lips and in most instances have little meaning. But, when serious we all know that "a silk purse was never fashioned from a sow's ear" nor a worthy person born of riff-raff parents. In other words, breeding counts in the human as well as in the animal kingdom. ==== GREAT GRANDFATHER CURRIE ==== Mother's Grandfather, Robert Currie, and his wife, Elizabeth Murray, must have been folk of substance and character. He, born about 1775, gained a superior education for his day, and established a successful private school. She was the daughter of Sir James Murray, proprietor of Stobo Castle until the battle of Culloden in 1745. They were deeply religious and were staunch supporters of their church, and raised their children "in the fear and admonition of the Lord". Although the records are not quite clear, it seems that three of their children reached maturity----a son, whose name has been lost, a daughter, Margaret, likely born in 1810, and Peter, Mother's father, born in 1819. A word regarding Margaret may be in order. While visiting our second cousin, Ada Currie Caldwell and her husband, John, in Glasgow in 1954 Ada showed me a letter which she was sure would be of interest to us. It was dated December 10, 1883 and had been mailed from Chatham, Ontario, Canada, and was addressed to Mother's brother, the Reverend David Young, of West Manse, Peebles, Scotland. It read, in part: "Dear Sir: I am requested (being a very old friend of nearly forty years standing of your Aunt Margaret, your father's sister) to say she is very anxious to know what became of James Tindall's family, for she received a card from him announcing the birth of their little girl on 23rd Feb., 1881, which she answered l6th March and since then has made many enquiries about them, but so far, has gained no information of their whereabouts-----". Of course, the little girl referred to was Jessie Young (nee Tindall) Johnson. The writer then proceeds to speak of other family matters; of Aunt Margaret's splendid memory but frail physical condition; of her cousins, Sandy Parman and Rubena Grieve, who in her childhood days had lived in Leith Walk in Edinburgh. The writer, who signed himself, "Mr. Davies", said she often spoke of heated discussions at her Mother's house on the merits and demerits of Mr. Harper's sermons "and finished by recalling the days of their youth around Manor Water and all the adjoining places." In another paragraph he wrote: "Stobo Castle once belonged to her grandfather, Sir James Murray, who, for serving Prince Charlie, forfeited all..... " No doubt, the loss of Stobo Castle radically changed the position and fortunes of the Murrays. The name of Sir George Murray appears prominently in the historical records of the period, but only the lesser works mention the name of Sir James. This is likely due to the fact that the latter played a smaller role in the desperate struggle to restore a Stuart to the throne of Scotland. Stobo Castle, a red stone mansion of massive proportions, stands near the center of a nine thousand acre estate. Across the rolling hills, fine fields and meadows extend as far as eye can see, and sleek herds of cattle feed upon the land. But more impressive still are the magnificent forests, their giant trees reaching for the sky and clad in the verdure of a never-ending spring. The Japanese garden, a quarter-mile below the great house, is a "thing of beauty and a joy forever". An artificial lake at its upper end pours a constant stream over the dam into the river below. And on its surface a dozen swans and their cygnets glide with an unmatched grace. Below the dam, the river runs its uncertain course amid miniature islands joined by rustic bridges and dotted with shrubs and flowers of a thousand hues. Of course, the castle itself is grand. From its second story veranda, one looks down upon a sunken garden of exquisite loveliness----velvety lawns and majestic evergreens, flower beds and half-hidden bowers. Two crescent-shaped stairways, one at either end of the veranda, lead to the gardens below. And at a main entrance at the east end, an imposing portico extends some forty feet to provide for guests arriving, or departing, by car or carriage. The overall length of the castle must be two hundred fifty feet, its width not less than a hundred. Nina and I visited the ancient pile on a lovely day in August, 1959, in the company of Ada Currie Caldwell and her husband, John. They had been there before, knew the factor and had, at one time, met the present owner, the Countess of Dysart, who, at the time of our visit was in London. John, a naturalist, named practically every flower and tree as we inspected an extensive area surrounding the castle. The four of us laughed and talked about things that "might have been" had Sir James but championed the winning side in 1745. Who knows but what the present occupants might have been Sir John Tindall and Lady Ferne; or, perchance, David Young Currie, the Earl of Stobo? Of such stuff our dreams are made. It is likely that Aunt Margaret married in the 1830’s and went with her husband, Walker Murray, to Canada in the 1840's. I know of only one contact with the family since the letter written in 1883. It was in the 1950's, when one day Cousin Will Pringle received a phone call, inviting him to join a doctor and his wife at luncheon in Edinburgh. It turned out that either one or the other of them was a descendant of the Walker Murray family, and, therefore, a cousin once or twice removed of Will Pringle and ourselves. Will says they were a delightful couple. Someday, if Nina and I ever drive in Ontario again, we shall visit Chatham, try to make contact with members of the family and visit the graves of Aunt Margaret and her husband. Their departure for Canada must have brought sadness to the hearts of her parents, but they still had their son, Peter, Mother’s father, and his young wife to lend comfort and cheer. Both Robert and Elizabeth Currie are buried in Warriston Cemetery, Edinburgh, the exact location I do not know. ==== GRANDFATHER PETER CURRIE ==== Hanging in the dining room of the home of Ada Currie Caldwell, at 84, Stanmore Road, Glasgow, in 1954 were two oil portraits one of Grandfather, the other of Grandmother Currie. I had seen them before, when I spent nearly a month in the home of Ada's grandparents, the Reverend David Young Currie, West Manse, Peebles, Scotland, in 1909. I was impressed then, but even more so on second viewing, forty-five years later. The portraits, done by a well-known Scottish artist, in the early 1840's, came to Ada through her father, Peter (Patrick) Currie, a lawyer, born in Peebles, in 1877. He died in Glasgow in 1951, and is buried in Galashiels. In one of a series of letters to a Reverend Mr. Scott, written in the 1840's, Grandfather Currie refers to the paintings and hints that they were an unwarranted expense, a strain on the family budget. Be that as it may, I'm sure that any of his descendants would gladly pay twice the original cost for them today. Grandmother is shown in black silk dress, dainty white lace collar and cap, with a beautiful gold brooch at the throat and double gold rope chain reaching to the waist. Her features were well-fashioned, her eyes (which I believe were grey-blue) steady, her expression calm, almost serene. Grandfather is clad in black Prince Albert coat, "stock" tie and ruffled shirt. Both portraits are of bust length. Grandfather Currie was indeed a handsome man, with impressive brow, a shock of brown hair and the most wonderful brown eyes. Certainly there was little in common between the two men, but I never looked upon Grandfather's portrait without, unconsciously, superimposing upon it Naysmith's famed portrait of Robert Burns which hangs in the Scottish National Art Gallery in Edinburgh. To me, there was always a striking resemblance between the two men, especially across the brow, the eyes, the generous mouth and even the hair. His features were delicate, suggesting those of Percy Bysshe Shelley, the Romanticist. But more important is the ease with which one reads on the faces of both Grandfather and Grandmother the marks of the finest traits of character. And these traits they transmitted in large measure to each of their offspring. Grandfather Currie was an ambitious youth, apt in his studies and a rather rare combination of the introvert and extrovert. He majored in the Classics at the University of Edinburgh, but also studied Architecture. I believe he never established an architectural office but, on occasion, did undertake assignments in that field, and performed very well. One of the best examples of his work is to be seen at Aytoun House, some thirty or forty miles south of Edinburgh. Nina and I passed through the old baronial mansion on many occasions in 1954 and 1959. and were always impressed with its graceful lines which suited so well the lovely natural setting---acres of well-kept lawns across softly rolling hills. But Peter Currie was primarily a school master, with a deep love of the Latin and of the Greek, as well as of his native tongue. Mother, under his tutelage, became more or less proficient in determining the origin and meaning of words. Often, in my youth when a dictionary was not available, I've heard her say, "Let's determine the roots." and then proceed to break a word down to its syllables. Then she would continue, "This syllable is from the Latin root meaning so-and-so, the next--------". Soon she had the entire word analyzed and its meaning made clear. Even a cursory reading of a sheaf of Grandfather Currie's letters addressed to a Reverend Mr. Scott during the 1840's, and which is now in our possession, reveals a more than average knowledge of the English language. Letters, of course, are hardly the best evidence of a person's skill in writing, for they are usually written for the day and for the eyes of a very limited audience, but his might well serve as models for many of us. The following excerpts are selected at random from one dated Edinburgh, 6th March, 1847. It's a pathetic account of the death of their little daughter, Lillias, the day before, and it tugs a bit at the heart strings even after these many years. "Dear Sir: It has pleased the Almighty to remove from us our dear infant. She died on Wednesday at twelve o'clock. In the simple but pathetic language of inspiration: 'She lay on her Mother's knee until noon and then died'. But for the hope and consolation made known unto us by Him who is the first fruits of them that sleep the trial would be unsupportable. She fell asleep, calmly resigning her spirit to Him who formed her and breathed into her nostrils the breath of life. This has been our first bereavement---it is a bitter draught, but we gratefully got her so ought we to resign her without repining---He who doeth all things well and doth not willingly afflict the children of men has sent it to try our faith and patience----Yesterday was an eventful day to me. I had to convey her remains from the 'haunts of living men down to the chambers of death'. While on the way to the narrow house appointed for all living, I was never more composed and laid her head in the lap of her mother earth cheered by the thought that she was not lost but would return with the ransomed of the Lord to Zion with songs and rejoicing, and that though she had never breathed her Savior's name on earth, yet by this time she had been taught the song of Moses and the Lamb and, before the Great White Throne, was already ascribing eternal praise to Him who bought her with His precious blood." These are but a few of the lines from that rather remarkable letter. They suggest courage, hope, faith, and love, and a resignation to God's will that would put most of us to shame. He also speaks of Grandmother's composure and firmness in the face of death, then adds: "Thanks be to Him for His goodness to me in the midst of my affliction." No doubt Grandfather Currie, like his forebears, was a deeply religious man. For generations the family had been staunch Presbyterians and he and Grandmother saw to it that their children were well grounded in the scriptures and knew well the "Shorter Catechism". Three centuries separated Grandfather's generation from the Protestant Reformation but its memory was fresh in the mind of every Scotsman of his day. Martin Luther had established the Reformation but John Knox, one of Scotland's very own, and John Calvin, a Frenchman, had preserved it and extended wide its influence. It's useless to compare the preaching of Calvin and Knox; both were masters of the art, and both among the leading scholars of their day. John Calvin was minister of St. Peter's and St. Paul's Cathedral in Geneva for thirty-one years, and Knox was his student for five to seven years of that time. Upon returning to Scotland, Knox founded the Presbyterian Church and denounced to her face the then ruling sovereign of that country, Mary, Queen of Scots. She, a staunch Roman Catholic, hated the "upstart preacher" and would fain have put him to death, but she feared his power and his zeal. From the pulpit of St. Giles Cathedral, where he preached for seven or eight years and from a pen that never seemed to run dry, this fiery evangel spread the doctrine of "the priesthood of all believers" which spread to all corners of Scotland and took lodgment in countless human hearts. And, if that were not enough to bring embers of Protestantism to full flame, a visit to Greyfriars Churchyard, with its relics of torture still evident, would achieve the desired result. Even I felt a pounding in my pulse when I visited the historical spot with Uncle David Currie in 1909. This was the religious heritage of Grandfather and Grandmother Currie and of all members of the Young and Currie families. And most of them have remained true to the Protestant Faith ever since. The year was 1858; Grandfather now in his middle years, had established himself as one of the leading educators in the city of Edinburgh and had done something in the field of architecture. His financial position had been stabilized; he and his family were active members of the Rose Street Presbyterian Church where he helped train Sunday School teachers and where he served as an Elder for many years. The Edinburgh Presbytery had honored him with the chairmanship of the Ministerial Placement Committee. He had buried his father and mother in Warriston Cemetery in 1845, his father just eleven months prior to the burial of Lillias, the infant daughter, mentioned earlier. He had also laid away other members of his family in that hallowed ground. But he still had Grandmother and six living children----Mother, the eldest, was thirteen; and Jessie, the youngest, just past one. A glowing future seemed to lie ahead. But death struck when he was in the zenith of his powers and the high-spirited school master joined the larger company above. The blow was staggering to Grandmother and her fledgling flock. Fortunately they were immediately able to take refuge in the home of her father, Alexander Young, in the Stock Bridge district, where they remained until his death in 1863. During those years, Mother, and all members of the family, became very much attached to their Grandfather and adored their Mother for the manner in which she carried on after her husband's death. ==== GRANDMOTHER CURRIE ==== The first child born to Alexander and Agnes Galbraith Young was Jessie who was destined to become Mother's Mother. The year of her birth was 1820, the place Edinburgh. She was educated in a girls' school and, at the age of twenty-two, married Peter Currie. Fragmentary information indicates that they, like most young married couples, had their struggles and headaches. For instance, Grandfather in one of his letters laments the fact that lack of funds prevented his taking an extra course at the University, and there was also much of sadness before many years had passed. But they were well matched and sharers of common interests. And they were naturally happy, given to laughter and song. They were also a busy pair. Grandfather, though perhaps still taking some work at the University of Edinburgh, had already assumed responsibility for the direction of "Mr. Currie's School", which moved about that time from Thistle Street to George Street. Infant mortality, always a more bitter trial for a mother than a father, brought sorrow on more than one occasion to the heart of Jessie Young Currie. We've already written of the death of Lillias, her second born. Others were to follow; their names are listed on the sandstone markers in Warriston Cemetery. However, there were six children who survived infancy: Our Mother, Agnes (1844); Robert (1847); Catherine Young (1849); David (1851); Jessie MacDougal (1854); and Peter (1857). With the exception of Peter, all these lived fairly long lives. Peters death in 1863, still less than seven years of age, was a devastating blow to all members of the family. Mother always spoke of him in glowing terms and her judgment was supported by her brothers and sisters. Peter was a lad of surpassing beauty, with a mop of auburn hair, deep-set brown (Currie) eyes, open countenance and the most delicate features. He had a ringing laugh, loved fun and was, in fact, the joy of the family. And all agreed that he bore the marks of genius for one so young. But all their hopes and dreams were shattered when he died before life had well begun. He, too, lies below those crumbling stones in Warriston. Grandmother continued to live the remainder of her life in the environs of Edinburgh, the last several years at Portobello, a lovely seaside resort some three miles from the center of the city. She brought five of her children to full maturity, seeing them all married, with the exception of Jessie, and had become the Grandmother of eleven before her death in 1894, at the age of seventy. Her widowhood had lasted thirty-six years. Her passing was a blow to all members of her family. ==== THE YOUNGS ==== Mother had reason to be proud of her ancestral line on both sides. We have treated the Curries and will now turn our attention to her maternal antecedents, the Youngs. Her Mother's father, Alexander Young, was born in Edinburgh in the last quarter of the 18th century and spent his entire life in that city. In 1818, he married Agnes Galbraith, also of Edinburgh. To them were born six children----Jessie (1820) who was to become Mother's Mother, and five other children, all born in the 1820's. They include four daughters: Jessie, already mentioned; Catherine who first married the Reverend James Mather, Librarian for the Presbytery of Edinburgh for ten years prior to his death in 1856, and later married to James Copeland, a substantial business man; and Helen who in the late 1830's married William Weir of Langton Mill, Duns, Berwickshire. The fourth, Agnes, while in her late teens, died in 1838, just one day after her brother, Alexander, who was slightly older. The second son, David, trained for the Presbyterian ministry and served for nearly forty years as minister in the Presbyterian Church of Chatton, Northumberland, England. More about him later. The Reverend Mr. Mather, Catherine's first husband, is buried in the Currie plot in Warriston; Mr. Copeland likely beside his first wife, place unknown. She had no children, lived to about the age of seventy-five and was much liked by all members of the Currie and Young families. She died in the home of Uncle David and Aunt Leish Currie, West Manse, Peebles, in 1904 and is buried in Warriston Cemetery, Edinburgh. Possessed of substantial means, she lived very well and surrounded herself with lovely things. I remember Aunt Leish showing me an exquisite sapphire ring, in 1909 that "Aunt Copeland" had given her. And Will Elliot, a grand nephew just as we, had a splendid oil portrait of her, done by an Edinburgh artist, when she was perhaps in her thirties. She was indeed a beauty in her younger days and something of the dowager type when old. Helen, Mrs. William Weir, was the only one of her generation still alive when I was in Britain in 1909. She was then in her eighty-seventh year, still a beautiful woman, keen of mind and sprightly in action. She mothered ten children, five sons and five daughters. Three sons James, William (Bill) and Alexander came to Iowa and the children of Bill and Alex still reside in the Sioux City community. James, first married to Peter Blair's sister, "Izzy", who died in 1896, later married Harriet Fisher of Leeds. James and "Izzy" are buried in Floyd Cemetery, Sioux City, Iowa; Harriet perhaps at Hawarden. The five Weir girls were Agnes (Mother's age) who married Dr. Shields in the 1870's. He was soon sent as a medical missionary, under the Scottish Presbyterian Mission Board, to India. However, within two years of his assignment, he continued on to Melbourne, Australia, where he established a thriving practice. Two of his sons followed in his footsteps and became renowned surgeons, especially Douglas who, during World War One, was head of the Australian Hospital in Paris. Following the war, he organized his own hospital in London, was knighted by King George the Fifth and was acknowledged to be one of the foremost surgeons in Britain. Among his more illustrious patients was Sir James Barrie, the well-known Scottish playwright. Agnes Weir Shields, then a widow, joined her son in London, became a close personal friend of Sir James and was, on more than one occasion, I believe, introduced by him to audiences attending the premier showing of some of his later plays. Jessie, another daughter never married. She succeeded Mother as hostess for Uncle David Young at the Manse in Chatton when Mother married in 1880. Helen married David Elliot, of Nesbit Hill Farm, Duns, had four sons and one daughter and passed away in the 1920's. Lillias died when comparatively young, and Kate, the youngest, remained at home until the death of her bachelor brother, Peter, in the late 1920's. She then became a housekeeper for her nephew, William Elliot, at "Cheviot View", a four hundred-year-old house in the small village of Gavinton, nearby. Aunt Helen Young Weir was in her eighty-seventh year when I spent three weeks with her, Peter and Kate, at Langton Mill, in 1909, Her interests were many, not the least of which was concern for her three sons in America who wrote her "so infrequently". I wish that they and every indifferent son in the country might have heard her lamentation. It might have stirred their consciences a bit. In my files there’s a letter she wrote to me in that year. It is well and concisely composed and the script is as beautiful as copperplate. She died March 19, 1911 (same day and month as Mother but twenty-four years earlier), and is buried with most of the members of her family in the Gavinton Churchyard. Her resting place is one many folk would choose for their last sleep----serene and lovely as a Turner landscape. Great Grandmother, Agnes Galbraith Young, died in 1830 when her children ranged from one to ten years of age. Their care for the next several years was placed in the hands of a housekeeper, in fact until the late 1830's when Alexander Young remarried. His bride this time was another Edinburgh lady, her name Lillias Scott, a woman of exemplary character and many superior qualities. Never, perhaps, have children been blessed with so fine a stepmother. To show their appreciation, two of the Young daughters named daughters of their own for her. She died in 1858 and is buried along side her husband, who died in 1863. in St. Cuthbert’s Cemetery, Edinburgh. Oil portraits of the two of them were the prized possession of Aunt Kate Pringle until her death in 1938. They were then passed on to her son, William Henderson Pringle, of Balerno, Midlothian. They are no doubt now hanging in the home of his daughter, Mary Pringle Finlay (wife of Ian Finlay), Currie Riggs, Balerno. They were done by an artist named Graham, in 1842. Nina and I have colored slides of the portraits, also those of Grandfather and Grandmother Currie, in our slide collection. They were taken in 1954 and 1959. === EARLY RESPONSIBILITIES === Though only thirteen years of age at the time of her father’s death, Mother was called upon to assume responsibilities usually reserved for folk much older. Her brother, Robert, next in line, was only ten, so hardly ready to undertake larger tasks. She assisted her mother in the home, became responsible for much of the marketing and helped to direct the social life of the family. It was during these formative years that she developed certain independent traits that stood her in good stead for the rest of her life. How well we children remember those qualities of courage and endurance that came to the surface in every crisis. Never did she flinch; "Things will always turn for the best". And somehow, because she willed it so, they always seemed to do just that. It was in this "school of hard knocks" that she trained for one of the most important assignments of her life. Her uncle, the Reverend David Young, after graduating from New College (Divinity) at the University of Edinburgh, had accepted the call to organize a Presbyterian congregation and build a church in the village of Chatton, Northumberland, England in 1850. By 1864, he had not only accomplished both purposes but also had personally raised funds for a handsome manse and had supervised the erection of same. Always a bachelor, he now needed a hostess and unhesitatingly turned to Mother to undertake the task. Immediately she proved her worth; she was indeed "to the manse born", and continued to fulfill in an exemplary manner her every obligation until she married in 1880. "Uncle Young", as she called him, was a man of great gifts and several eccentricities. He was not only trained in the field of Theology but also in the field of Homeopathic Medicine. He, therefore, often served his parishioners' physical needs as well as their spiritual needs. He and Mother soon developed a liaison wherein he prescribed and she rolled harmless sugar pills for "chronic patients" who became little less than a nuisance to a busy minister-doctor. Mother delighted to recount these experiences in which she cooperated in a harmless bit of deception. Of course, the "patients" were unaware of the ruse and were sure they benefited greatly from the doctor's ministrations. Uncle Young was peculiar largely because he was absent-minded. I suppose he claimed the scholar's prerogative to this luxury, and his right to same was never to be challenged. People in the Chatton district still remember him affectionately as "Dr. Young", the small kindly man who had a smile and kind word for everyone and preached those "eloquent sermons" at the Presbyterian Church. The extent of his ministries physical, mental and spiritual will never be fully measured; many of them were beyond price. In Holy Cross Churchyard (Anglican) in Chatton, a grateful congregation and community erected, following his death in 1890, the finest memorial in the burial ground----a fine granite shaft bearing a suitable inscription. However he is buried in the Young family plot in St. Cuthbert's Churchyard, Edinburgh. As stated above, Mother was his able "right-hand-man" for sixteen years. She was a faithful worker in the Sunday School, was organist and choir member, church visitor and housekeeper. She was, perhaps, the best-loved woman in the community, a friend to all, confidante of many and dispenser of aid to all in distress. She, I think, never realized how much she was loved by the people of Chatton; if she did, she was too modest to acknowledge same. Even after twenty-nine years, when I visited Chatton in 1909, people spoke of her in fondest terms, often with tears in their eyes. To them she was worthy of sainthood. === A BLITHE SPIRIT === Mother had her full measure of sorrow in this life, but never let it dampen her buoyant spirit. Even as a child, her father had spoken of her love of mirth. She craved happiness for herself and others and often brought gales of laughter to those around her. It was of her humor that Tom Carter, an old, old friend spoke most on that summer day in Peebles, in 1909. He told of her harmless pranks, of her predilection to practical jokes, and her ability to take a joke on herself, as well as to laugh at those directed at others. She told herself, with a measure of glee, of a lovely Sunday morning when she and a girl friend, instead of attending services at the Rose Street Church, took a stroll along Leith Water. Returning home, they were, as usual, asked the question: "And what was the text?". Their well-rehearsed answer: "Behold I was not there." The unsuspecting parents, failing to practice their usual care, never did learn of their offspring’s truancy. She played many pranks in Chatton too; some were remembered thirty years later. I'm sure all her family remember her telling of one that involved three young bachelors in the Chatton district. A few days prior to April first, April Fool's Day, she sent each of them an identical note. In one, John Turnbull invited Tom Laidler to be at his house at seven-thirty on April first; in another, Tom Laidler invited John Tindall to be at his house at the same hour on the same date; And John Tindall invited John Turnbull to be at Broomhouse at the same time. Each, upon arrival at his destination, was informed that the one he sought had, upon invitation, already gone to visit him. Members of the families involved were inclined to question their sanity. The three young men got together a few days later and decided they had been the victims of a well-laid plot and, without much argument, laid the blame on the "young woman of the manse"; she alone could, and would, have concocted such a diabolical scheme. It should be noted that the places of Tindall, Turnbull, and Laidler lay some miles distant one from the other and the methods of transportation in that day were not the auto or airplane. The young men either had to walk, ride horseback or drive a gig. Mother's cheerful spirit sustained her under very dissimilar circumstances too. The Phillips family lived not far from the manse. There were the father and mother and eight sons and one daughter. All the children were born embiciles, never gained their sanity; all lived to be more than seventy years of age and none left the parental nest throughout his life. At a comparatively early age, the father died; Mrs. Phillips, then a widow, had to carry on alone. She was a most remarkable person and lacked one month of reaching her hundredth birthday. Only two, perhaps three, of her brood were left when she died. Meg, the daughter, was the only one living when I visited Chatton in 1909. She was still a "gibbering” idiot, living in a fantastic world of make-believe, product of a fevered mind that had never known a lucid hour. She was then nearly eighty years of age. Mother and Uncle Young were perhaps the best friends Mrs. Phillips had in Chatton. Never a day passed that Mother didn’t enquire regarding the welfare of the family and never was a task too onerous if it would ease the overpowering burden that Mrs. Phillips was called upon to bear. And when bedlam reigned in the Phillips home, as it often did, Uncle Young responded with alacrity to her call for help and brought order out of chaos. The offending culprits would scamper like mice to their corners the moment he entered the door. Yet he never uttered a harsh word or threatened them with physical punishment. Eleven years had passed and oh! so quickly; it was 1875. Mother's second brother, David Young Currie, had taken his degree in Divinity at New College, the University of Edinburgh, and had been sent by the Scottish Presbyterian Mission Board to relieve his mother's cousin, the Reverend John Richardson MacDougal, for his sabbatical year in Florence, Italy. The Reverend Mr. MacDougal had established the Scottish Presbyterian Church there in 1853 and continued to serve the congregation until perhaps 1910. He died in 1912 and is buried in the Protestant Cemetery in Florence, along with his wife and daughter, Jessie. So the time seemed propitious for Mother to do a bit of traveling and see some of the beauties of the Mediterranean World. === A LAND OF ART AND SUNSHINE === It was eleven o'clock Monday morning, August 17, 1875, when Mother caught the London train to Bedford Station. In her diary, which is almost as clear as when written, she speaks of meeting Mr. Haskard who was to be her traveling companion on her Italian journey. She also records the name of Mrs. Worthington, who too was traveling to London. She doesn't clarify the position of either of these friends but I assume they had connections with the Scottish Presbyterian Church. On reaching London, she was met by a cousin with whom she no doubt stayed while in the city. Unfortunately, she doesn't list her name. On Wednesday evening, August 19th, she and Mr. Haskard took the train to Folkstone where at midnight they boarded a ship for Bologne, France. Unlike most channel crossings, it was a pleasant sail, the night warm and balmy, warm enough, in fact, to lure her on deck for most of the journey. During the quiet hours her mind, according to her diary, turned to Mary, Scotland’s tragic queen: "taking her last hungry look at France, the land that she loved so well, and where her happiest, perhaps her only happy days, were spent." But with the first streak of dawn these somber thoughts vanished and she thrilled to the prospect of adventures that lay ahead. Her first impression of France was exhilarating---there was sunshine and cheer on every hand---except for the black garb of priests and nuns. The houses were gaily colored, trees were green and the sky an azure blue. And the coffee---it was divine. "The British must learn to make it more properly." They never have! Because of limited time in Paris, she saw little of that entrancing city and only from a cab as she and Mr. Haskard drove to another railroad station. She speaks of its beauty but was unable to savor of its many other virtues. Soon she was on the train and bound for Italy. One must see the Alps to appreciate their grandeur. Within fifty miles of Paris, Mother was traveling through valleys banked on either side by giant peaks. Fair meadows, lush fields of grain and vineyards stretched far up the slopes, while queer-garbed peasants performed their humble tasks. The route taken to Italy is not clear, but no matter, whichever one she chose carried her to lofty heights whereon lay winter’s snow the year around. And when the summit had been cleared she dropped at lightning speed into the valley of the Po where warmer breezes blow. On Saturday morning, August 22nd, she reached Florence, her destination. She had spent her 31st birthday, August 18th, in London, and had been introduced to an entirely new world. She was now in Italy, that paradoxical country of lights and shadows, poverty and wealth, saints and sinners; a land that produced a Garibaldi and a Mussolini, superb cathedrals and some of the ugliest slums in the world. Her train arrived in Florence twelve hours earlier than expected, so Uncle David was not at the station to meet her. In fact, he was still in bed when Mr. Haskard delivered her to the MacDougal home which he now possessed. His two servants---Rosina and Checko---met her and bade her welcome. They were destined to play a major role in her life for the next two months. Mother's description of the two is interesting. Checko, evidently a sprightly little fellow, considered himself Uncle David's bodyguard. Every night he slept on the floor just outside the door of Uncle David's bedroom to protect his master from cutthroats and robbers---In his hand he grasped a big knife little smaller than himself. Mother writes: "On David's clothes he had no mercy. Besides giving them a thorough brushing every morning, he also gave them the same treatment twice or thrice a day, something in the horse brushing style," These and many other peculiarities, plus his regular salutation, in stentorian voice, of "Good morning, my Lord", set him apart from all other servants and household help. He was an institution, always on hand, sometimes a nuisance, Rosina was cast in a different mold. A jealous individual, she allowed no one to perform any service for Mother but herself. She drew water for her bath, laid out her clothes, combed and dressed her hair. Mother's simple hairdo upon arrival didn't suit Rosina at all and she constantly insisted that she adopt the fussier Italian style. A photograph taken in Florence proved that, on one occasion at least, Mother did succumb to her blandishments and persuasive tongue. But Mother liked and, perhaps at times, pitied her. At one point in her diary she remarks: "It sounded strange to be always called, 'Signorina Agnesia'! But I confess however, that I liked the 'Signorina' much better than 'Miss'." The Italian days were golden ones. She loved Florence, the art center of the world. She walked along its handsome streets; marveled at its gracious buildings; visited several shops and stood in awe before the paintings of Raphael and Michelangelo. She and Uncle David visited regularly the Pitti Palais and Uffizi Art Galleries and spent remembered hours in the Duoma, Campanile and Baptistry of Florence. These were described in her diary---the Baptistry "Grand and noble"; the Duoma, which required 170 years to build, "is entirely of marble and mosaic". These she said, like the sand-colored River Arno, were seen to best advantage in brilliant moonlight. And so, might we add, are other world renowned places and scenes---the Taj Mahal, of India, for instance. And the places she visited were not confined to Florence. She journeyed to Pisa and, while looking, with a bit of fear perhaps, may well have thought of Galileo and the experiments he conducted there so many years before. And just adjoining, stands one of the world's stateliest cathedrals, all in marble---a symphony in stone. At Venice, where the tourist "floats" his way about the town, she saw two famous bridges---the Rialto across the Grand Canal and the Bridge of Sighs where many, through the centuries have committed suicide. But more impressive would be St. Mark's Cathedral, perhaps one of the finest examples of Byzantine architecture in all the world and mosaic work seldom, if ever, matched. And (who knows) she may perchance have helped feed the pigeons in the Cathedral courtyard. She considered the bridges over the Arno in Florence superior to those spanning the Seine in Paris, especially the Ponte Vecchio, with its splendid jewelry shops on either side (only foot traffic). The Ponti Trinita also intrigued her. It was the inspiration for Dante's Inferno. It seems that in early days the Florentines entertained distinguished visitors with a pageant, in which actors, or performers, many of them dressed as devils, dived from the bridge into the river and became as lost souls in Hell. It must have been graphically told to Mother, and perhaps pictured, for afterwards she lost the desire to read the famous work. Dante, she reported, was a great favorite in Florence, in fact, much loved. Mother's mind in those days must have been as sensitive as a photographic plate; she grasped details that the average traveler would have missed; she called the Santa Croche (church) the "Westminster of Florence", which reminds Nina and me of a day in Westminster in 1954 when an Englishman, just returned from India, remarked to us: "This place has become more museum than church". That is true, in large measure. But what a church and what a museum! She visited the Grave of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, one of Britain's noblest women and her greatest female poet, in the Protestant Cemetery and, on one occasion at least, traveled to the Fiesole where she inspected the medieval monastery in which Fra Angelico did some of his finest frescos. And while there she scanned the view the Brownings loved during the years of their sojourn in the ancient city. Her heart, always sensitive to the suffering of others, went out to the poor children who thronged the thoroughfares of Florence. They lived in gangs, housed only in hovels or in the open streets. Their families, too poor or indifferent to care for them, sometimes encouraged them to steal and plunder. Hardened criminals trained them in the art of picking pockets and burglary, and lived off their labors. She, like many Protestants I'm sure, was at times inclined to place the blame on an indifferent priesthood which often skimmed the cream off the top of the economic milkcan for their own benefit. In one section of her diary, she describes an Italian funeral. Immediately following the death the deceased's body was placed into the hands of the priest. At dusk of the same day, torches flaming against the night sky, the body was borne through the streets to the cemetery. Following, in somber train, the mourners came in double file, all in black and the faces of the women, except for the eyes, sheathed in black veils. The moaning and groaning of the mourners could be heard for blocks. It was an experience she never forgot. Before leaving Florence and Italy, let’s have Mother tell in her own words of a trip to Viareggia, a Mediterranean village fifty miles from Florence: "In the house where we stayed were brick floors, madonnas in the room, and even in the bedroom hanging over the beds, cups of holy water (!) as well. Crockery, by no means the newest. The coffee cups, or basins, they had no handles, looked so large you thought a half cup would be quite sufficient for you, but on finishing a full cup you then thought you might take a half cup more. Here you were obliged to eat Italian bread, and certainly did not relish it, there being no salt in it. Fowls you see running about the house, one is killed and cooked just as it is wanted. Beggars were most abundant here, mosquitos even super-abundant. As I know from personal experience. "But what matters any small annoyance when one can gaze on the Mediterranean, the beautiful deep blue Mediterranean Sea. Oh, it was delicious, almost heavenly, sitting far out at the very end of the pier. Aye, but we were not content with the end of the pier, we climbed over and walked along a plank used only for sailors assisting vessels in stormy weather. Then at the end of the plank we sat gazing far, far away over the Mediterranean, the full bright moon and stars shining over it. One almost fancied it was not earth. There we sat far through the night, singing and reciting. One evening we had a sail upon it. And the bathing in it was fine, so warm, one just spent all the morning in it. One day Mrs. Haskard and I lost our hats; we thought they would perhaps go on until they landed in Spain and only wished we could swim along with them." On such a note we bring her Italian sojourn to a close. They were unforgettable days; their memory would brighten the remainder of her years. Because of terrible headaches, she was forced to forego a planned journey through Germany on her way home and again take the shortest route, through Paris. She reached Chatton and home near the end of October. === THE SILENT YEARS === Mother returned from the Continent with a different outlook than she had before. She had caught visions of a new world and was fascinated with them. There was much indeed beyond Edinburgh, yea, even beyond the boundaries of Britain. The world was big and inviting. It's indeed probable that the first steps toward the great American adventure five years later were taken during those two months spent under the benign influence of the warm Italian sun. Anyhow, plans for that adventure began to take shape within a reasonable time after her return home. I have called them "The Silent Years", because we know so little about them. Ties that had been tenuous before 1875 were now strengthened, new friendships were formed and old ones enriched. Where she had served as a girl and young woman, she now assumed the prerogatives of maturity. She was, for that time, a widely traveled woman, a woman of experience. Among the prominent families in the Chatton community were the Tindalls of Broomhouse. They were a closely-knit family of mother and four sons and four daughters living at home when our Mother went to Chatton in 1864. Robert was married and living at Chatton Hill and William, the eldest, had died in 1858. The father, John Tindal, had died in 1863 at the age of sixty-three. Tom married Jane Rutherford in 1865 and left immediately for New Zealand, so Mother never really knew him. The Tindalls were members of Holy Cross Anglican (Episcopal) Church, but that didn't prevent social contacts with Presbyterians. In fact, with the passing of time, these contacts became more common and often resulted in marriage. So it was that Robert Currie, Mother's brother, met Isabella Tindall when visiting in Chatton, and married her in 1877 or 1878. They lived in Scotland, became the parents of a daughter, Mary (Tottie), in 1880, and a son, David, in 1882. Both children married. Mary had two sons, Douglas, who died at the age of ten, and Ronald Patterson, still living (a bachelor) in Edinburgh. David and his wife Maude, (now a widow) had one son, Robert, who with his wife and mother, live in Cumberland on the English side of the border. Tottie died in 1947 (?) and David about 1950 or 1952. Both are buried at Joppa, near Edinburgh. They are our "double cousins" and both bore a rather striking resemblance to members of our generation. David Currie, Mother's brother, returned from his duties in Italy in 1876, accepted a call to the ministry of West Presbyterian Church, Peebles, Scotland and married Elizabeth Cinnamon, a cousin of Edward Thomarson, for many years a resident of Le Mars, Iowa. They, too, had a son and a daughter----Peter (Patrick) and Marghuerita. Pat graduated from Glasgow University and practiced law in Galashiels, all his life. He married Margaret Mercer, of Galashiels, about 1913, granddaughter of Mr. Mercer, a textile manufacturer who discovered and gave his name to "mercerized cotton". They had two children Ada, born in 1915 and David about 1919. Ada married John Caldwell, a horticulturist, and lives with her husband at Duntreath Castle Gardens, Blanefield, Sterlingshire, Scotland. David married a Glasgow girl, Elizabeth , and lives on the west side of the city. Margaret, their mother, died in 1947; Pat in 1951. They're buried in Galashiels. Marghuerita was educated in a private school in Peebles, and finished her education at The Misses Cossips' School in Edinburgh. She directed the building programs and operations of Y.W.C.A. cafeterias for British servicemen both at home and in France during World War One and for her outstanding contribution to the war effort was decorated by King George the Sixth with the Order of the British Empire (OBE) at an investiture in Buckingham Palace in early 1919. Later that year she married the Reverend James Thomson (Methodist) of Australia, and immediately sailed for that far-away land. James died February 7, 1959 and is buried in Canberra, the national capital. Marghuerita after suffering a slight stroke in late 1963. returned to Scotland and now makes her home with a niece, Ada, at Blanefield. (note: She has now, April 23, 1965, returned to Australia.) Catherine Young Currie (Aunt Kate) married the Reverend John Pringle, son of the well-known divine, Dr. Pringle of Ochterarder, in 1876. They had two sons---David who didn't survive infancy and is buried in the Currie plot in Warriston Cemetery, Edinburgh; and William Henderson, born in 1877, studied law and Economics at the University of Edinburgh, Glasgow and Oxford; practiced law for a few years in Leeds, England, but spent most of his life teaching and lecturing at Huddersfield and London Universities in England and at Otago University, Dunedin, New Zealand. For the last twenty-two years before retirement, he served as Principal of the Commercial College of the University of Birmingham. He is presently living with his only daughter, Mary, and her husband Ian Finlay (Director of the Royal Scottish Museum in Edinburgh), at their home, Currie Riggs, Balerno, Midlothian, Scotland. Uncle John Pringle served as minister of the United Free Presbyterian Church at Crossford, Lanarkshire, Scotland, for twenty-seven years. He died there in March 1903. Aunt Kate then took an apartment, usually near her son; visited the United States for a period of three months in 1905 and again spent a year (1911-12) with Mother and me in Toledo. She passed away in 1937, the last member of the Currie family of that generation, and is buried alongside her husband, in the old Presbyterian Churchyard at Carluke. Aunt Jessie MacDougal Currie, youngest of the three Currie sisters, remained a spinster for most of her life. However, in 1904, she married a retired Presbyterian Minister, the Reverend Mr. William MacClellan of Law and Sterling. I spent several days with her in her lovely home in that city in 1909. She was then a widow. I thought her very like Mother in looks and disposition. Cousin David Currie first introduced her to me in Glasgow as his "best girl". However, I was not long deceived; the smile and the merry twinkle in her eye soon convinced me that she was none other than my "Aunt Jessie". She was a woman of tender sentiments, but of strong will. She kept an immaculate house and had surrounded herself with lovely things, many of which were of substantial intrinsic value. Then there were articles that were priceless because of sentiment. I think no member of the family told me more about Grandmother Currie; Aunt Jessie had lived with her until her death in 1894 and perhaps knew her as no other did. Each evening during my stay in her home she sat down at the organ or piano and played old familiar airs and hymns, singing to her own accompaniment in a sweet soprano voice. And, when I knew the numbers, I joined in. They were moments to remember. In 1923, Aunt Jessie was stricken with cancer and died in 1924. She, too, rests in the Currie plot in Warriston Cemetery in Edinburgh. It is time to close the account of the Currie family. Uncle Robert and Aunt Isabella lived in Lenzie, near Glasgow, for many of their later years. She died in 1910, he in 1919. Both are buried in Cadder Cemetery near Lenzie. Uncle David Currie, worn and heartsick with the tragedy of World War One, died of anemia at West Manse, Peebles, in September, 1917. His widow, Aunt Leish, died of a heart attack at Nisbet Hill (home of the David Elliots), Duns, Berwickshire, on the last night of the year 1920. Both lie beneath an exquisite granite stone (a Celtic Cross) in the lovely Peebles Cemetery, erected by a grateful congregation and community. The generations may be compared to the chapters of a book. The first member arrives as fresh as the first page, lives his few days (they're never many) and passes on. He may have written well, or poorly. But no matter, he never had a chance, like the writer of the book, to do a re-write job. We should take satisfaction in the fact that most of our ancestors have written well. === THE TINDALLS === The first Tindalls, under a French name, came to Northumberland from France in the l4th century. It seems that they first settled near the village of Wark, just south of the Tweed. One of their members, Adam de Tynedale (name from the River Tyne), was named "Baron of Wark". Like all other families of the district, they were subject to the Duke of Northumberland who lived on a magnificent estate at Alnwick, some twenty miles distant. Alnwick Castle and gardens are still one of the show places in the north of England. They were not only the tenants of the Duke but also constituted his yeomanry and, as such, were subject to call for police or military duty at any time. This was rather frequent during the Border Wars when Scottish Marauders, under the leadership of the "Black Douglas" and others, ravaged the countryside. Each yeoman was assigned his own arms which, I believe, were housed for safe keeping in the Castle. A wonderful collection of these----spears, knives, swords and pistols----still is on display in the ancient house. When looking at them, on two occasions, I wondered which might have belonged to our ancestors. The raids continued for many, many years, sometimes in reverse when the English crossed the Tweed into Scotland. Their usual fruits----death and destruction. But on at least one occasion, there was an element of romance. It must have been in the late seventeenth, or early eighteenth century. The Tindalls had long since become tenants of Broomhouse. Near midnight two men, with heavy Scottish accents, knocked on the door. They had in their arms an infant girl whom they insisted the Tindalls must keep for awhile. They accepted her under protest. Inspection of a bag of clothing next morning, revealed the fact that the infant's apparel was much finer then that generally used, and each piece was marked with the initials "L". "D". Although the two men had been indefinite as to time, the Tindalls expected the child to be called for within a few days, certainly within a few weeks. But the days and weeks became months, and the months years, perhaps two or three. The infant had become a delightful little girl, a real member of their family. They loved her dearly. Then the blow fell; the men returned for their charge. She rebelled but they insisted and carried her for several miles toward, the Scottish border. Her tears finally melted their hearts and they returned her to Broomhouse and explained that she was indeed the daughter of one of the famed Scottish Douglases; her name Leslie. She remained at Broomhouse and became, at maturity, the wife of a son of the Tindall family of that generation. The name, "Leslie Douglas", is to be found in every generation of Tindalls since that time. Naturally, some members of succeeding generations moved to other sections of England----one branch to Yorkshire, another to the South of England, etc.. Members of these branches are listed in the main Family Tree, prepared by a leading clergyman of the South of England some years ago. It covers the generations from the first ancestor, King Wincaslaus of Bohemia, to the year 1787. It includes several outstanding individuals----several clergymen of the Anglican faith, among them Humphrey Tindall, Dean of Ely Cathedral and Master of Queen’s College, Cambridge University, between 1591 and l6l4. He is buried in the North Choir of the old Cathedral and his grave marked with one of the finest brass effigies in all England. Listed also are lawyers, judges, barons and baronets, also some military men, among them General Thomas Wolfe of Quebec fame. He, it will be remembered, was killed in that battle, as was also his counterpart, the French General Montcalm. But our branch of the family remained where it first settled----in Northumberland. There, one mile south of Chatton, some fifteen generations have occupied Broomhouse during the past five hundred years. A quick rundown of the family reveals Adam as our Great, Great Grandfather, born about 1740-50; Robert, our Great Grandfather, born about 1775, and our Grandfather, John, born about 1800. He married, in the early 1830's, Mary Eleanor Charters, of Chatton, who was born in 1811. Twelve children were born to this union----William, Anne, Robert, Adam, Thomas, Isabella, Mary, John, Elizabeth, James, Eleanor and Richard. Then there were perhaps two who died in infancy. William died, at about age twenty-two, in 1858, Eleanor at thirty in 1863, and John in his forties in 1892. All the rest, I believe, reached the half-century mark before they died. Uncle Robert's second wife was Elizabeth Dryden (Aunt Bess), the sister of the man who later married Uncle Robert's own daughter, Minnie. He therefore became brother-in-law to his own daughter. Aunt Bess mothered three sons and seven daughters----Robert, William and Adam; Isabella, Annie, Elizabeth, Eleanor, Leslie, Kate and Frances. The three sons rather lost caste in the family when they married "working girls", servants on their farm, Wandon. Three of the girls married----Isabella, Elizabeth and Eleanor. All of Uncle Robert's children are now dead except Frances who, at the age of seventy-two, lives at Cleveleys, Victoria Road, Wooler. All who married had children with the exception of Isabella, so there are grandchildren still living in Northumberland and across the Tweed in Scotland. Uncle Robert and both wives are buried in Holy Cross Churchyard in Chatton; Isabella, Annie, Leslie and Kate rest in the Anglican Churchyard at Norham where the family resided between 1919 and 1947. John, of the first family, is buried in Chatton. The others are laid away in communities not too far removed. Reference should be made, perhaps, to a few members of this large family. Uncle Robert was a handsome man who, when I knew him at age 74 was straight as an arrow and sat a horse like a statue. He was always neatly dressed in knickers, bore all the marks of an English Country gentleman. For many years, he served as a non-commissioned officer in the Northumberland Fusiliers and had earned many awards for marksmanship. When married the first time, he occupied Chatton Mill Farm and continued there until well after his second marriage. In 1860 the family moved to Wandon, succeeding the Robert Tindall Maddisons as tenants. Captain Maddison, a cousin of father’s, moved at that time to Anthon, Iowa, where members of the family still reside. Uncle Robert died in 1910, and in 1919 the family moved from Wandon to Norham. And in 1947, with the Norham house far too big for their needs, Leslie and Frances bought their home in Wooler. Robert, the eldest son, worked in his early years on the Wandon farm, married "beneath his station", fathered two children whose whereabouts I do not know, and joined the British Army in World War One. Following the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917, the Allied Governments sent military units to Russia to quell the uprising and keep Russia in the war on their side. Robert was a member of the British contingent. He was stricken with an incurable disease in late 1919 and invalided home to Norham. There he lingered until 1922. He's buried beside his parents in Holy Cross Cemetery, Chatton. It's rather interesting to know that he visited Canada and the United States in 1905-06; spent a month or two with Uncle Richard Tindall and his son, John, at their ranch in the Big Horn mountains, Wyoming and, while there, fell with his horse in an isolated spot. The horse, poor thing, broke his leg and was unable to rise; Robert, pinned under the beast, was not found for thirty-six hours. That experience caused him to cancel a planned visit with our family and hurry home to England. Leslie Douglas, Uncle Robert's third youngest daughter and the one we knew best, died in a New Castle hospital on March 16, 1964, and is buried with three of her sisters in Norham Anglican Churchyard. More about her later on. Uncle Tom Tindall was born in the early 1840's, married Jane Rutherford, cousin of the renowned atomic scientist, Lord Rutherford, in 1865 and sailed immediately for New Zealand. They had six children---John, Thomas, and a third son whose name I do not know. For some unknown reason, he committed suicide many years ago. The three daughters are Minnie, Elizabeth and a third who married and went to live in Australia. Uncle Tom died suddenly in 1885, Aunt Jane in the early 1900's. Both are buried at Geraldine, the Canterbury Plains, New Zealand. Three of their children were still living when Nina and I visited the family in 1949. Minnie had married Robert Harrison some fifty years before and had lived most of her married life in Mosgiel, a suburb of Dunedin. Their four daughters Jane, Mary and Roberta were living at home, Daisy in her own home nearby. Cousin Minnie died some years ago at the age of eighty-seven. Elizabeth (Ciss) married a Mr. Reaves and lived in Fort Chalmers, also a suburb of Dunedin. They had one daughter, Edna. Ciss died at Christmas time, 1963. Her husband had passed away in 1945. Tom and his wife, Mae, were still living in the old community, Gapes Valley, near Geraldine. A soldier in the Boer War in 1900, he had been deafened by the concussion of the great guns on the battle front, so conversation with him was difficult. However, we did manage to have a good visit with him and his wife. They had no children of their own but had many years before adopted a little girl, Dorothy. She had trained for nursing in Wellington Hospital where Kina spent so many weeks with a broken hip. I spent two brief periods in her home and got to know her and her husband, Vincent Flynn, very well. They never failed to visit Nina every Saturday evening, always bringing cookies, fruit, or flowers. Her mother, Mae, now makes her home with Dorothy in Wellington. The Flynns have one daughter, Shona, now about seventeen. Cousin Tom died in 1950. John, the eldest son of Uncle Tom and Aunt Jane, married Minnie Cullin in the early 1900's, and continued to live in the Geraldine community throughout his life. They became the parents of five sons and five daughters. John died in 1932; Minnie in 1950 or 1951. They are buried in Timaru, a seaside city some twenty-five miles south of Geraldine. All their children were living at the time of our visit; but Minnie, the only one we did not see (she then lived at Nelson), died the following year. Their son, John, named for his father, was married and living in Ashburton, near Christchurch. His seven sons, aged seven to twenty-one, should guarantee the preservation of the name "Tindall" in the district for generations to come. Frank Tindall, in Timaru, has three sons and one daughter, and Robert, two daughters. Albert, the youngest son, is not married. The four living daughters include Alice whose husband, Anthony Toomey, died within a few months of our visit. They had two sons, now married. Moana married a Mr. Henderson, a Scotsman, and became the mother of one son, a handsome lad who is expert on the bagpipes. Mavis became Mrs. Hall. Her husband came out of the Service following World War Two a nervous wreck and was for some years confined to a mental hospital. Their four sons and one daughter are all married. Minnie, who died in 1950, was married to a Mr. Dean. Nina and I made our headquarters in the home of the fifth daughter, Elsie, Mrs. Stanley Dean, in Geraldine. She and her husband had one daughter, Margaret, then a little girl of seven when we were there. She married in 1964 and lives in a town perhaps fifty miles from her parent's home. They were indeed very kind to us. Thus endeth the account of Uncle Thomas Tindall and the New Zealand segment of the Tindall family. We must now return to Britain. Uncle John, born in Broomhouse in the 1840's, never married and met an untimely death in 1892 when he fell from his horse. Uncle Adam also remained a bachelor throughout his life. I've heard it said that he and father planned at one time to form a partnership in the meat-packing and auctioneer business in New Castle-on-Tyne, but for some reason it never materialized. Instead Father came to America and Uncle Adam conducted the business alone, for nearly fifty years, and is thought to have done very well. During that long period, he spent every weekend at Broomhouse, so kept close tab on operations there. Uncle Adam was a distinguished-looking man. He was always properly dressed----morning coat, striped trousers, bowler hat and walking stick. He was a man of firm convictions and strong loyalties, especially to the Royal Family and to the Conservative Party, and to the Anglican Church. His church membership was in Holy Cross, Chatton, throughout his lifetime, and he generously supported its program. He undoubtedly was the prime mover in the installation of a memorial clock "To those members of the Tindall Family who for centuries have lived at Broomhouse and worshiped in Holy Cross Church." It's a tremendous instrument whose resonant tones can be heard throughout the community when it strikes the hours. It is dated January 1, 1901. Uncle Adam died in 1923 at eighty-four years of age, and lies in Holy Cross Churchyard. From the time of Grandmother Tindall's death in 1879. Aunt Mary took charge at Broomhouse. She was, in many ways, a typical "old maid", a demon for work and the arch-enemy of dirt. Her servants respected her but, I fear, must also have feared her. However, she was kind of heart and generous of spirit, and performed countless acts of charity in the community. The last two years of her life were spent in darkness; she had become blind. She died in June 1923, the last member of the Tindall family to live at Broomhouse! She is buried in Holy Cross Churchyard too. Aunt Elizabeth was born about 1849. A striking brunette, she had many suitors, one of whom she sued for breach of promise and recovered 2000 pounds ($10,000.00). Later she married the Reverend Charles Walker, Anglican clergyman who, for practically all his life, served a church at Dalton-Le-Dale, Yorkshire. She had been a widow three or four years when I was in England in 1909, a particularly handsome woman even then. I thought she was one of the best-dressed women I had ever seen, and her jewels were beautiful. And her energy--her drive often put me to shame. However, she, too, was unable to forestall the ravages of time and was gone in less than ten years. Her grave, along that of Uncle Charlie's, is at Dalton-Le-Dale. A pall of sadness seems to have hung over the life of Aunt Anne. She must have been a gentle creature, refined and sensitive, and possessed of a heart that responded to every human need. It may have been this "mothering" spirit that prompted her to marry William Watson, a widower and the village school master. In that capacity he had won the admiration and respect of a host of folk, and his splendid baritone voice was in great demand throughout the district. On the surface, he bore all the marks of a gentleman, but he had one fatal weakness----drink. Aunt Anne may have known of this flaw in his character before their marriage but, if so, must have thought she could reform him. That, as in most cases, proved to be impossible and William Watson, a man of great promise, soon lost caste and status in Chatton. A son, Johnnie, was born to the Watsons in the late 1870's and was, no doubt, the "apple of his parent's eyes". But things went from bad to worse and, in the hope of reestablishing himself as a worthwhile individual, Uncle William came, in the early 1890's, to Le Mars, Iowa, and there formed a partnership with Alexander Weir in the cattle-buying business. Things prospered for awhile but in either 1893 or 1894, Johnnie who had accompanied his father to America, was thrown from his horse and dragged to his death. That was the last straw; the spirits of both parents were broken. It must have been 1910. I was waiting to catch a late train out of Le Mars on a cold winter night. The Illinois Central station was closed, so I sought shelter in the lobby of the old Central Hotel nearby. I was reading and doing my best to keep awake when I sensed I was not alone in the room. Peering into one of the dimly lighted corners of the lobby, I saw what I was sure must be a specter. But it took shape gradually----an old, old man, moving at snail's pace in carpet slippers and well-worn clothes, pushing a floor brush before him, wiping the dust from some of the furniture and emptying the brass cuspidors into a large receptacle. Suddenly, I seemed to detect something familiar in the ghostly figure, and when a better light flashed across his face, was quite sure that I was seeing William Watson, but not sure enough to reveal my identity. Through the years I've never forgotten that face; it was as transparent as fine Dresden China, benign and kind. The lines were deep, the hair like snow. The old man lived until 1912, I believe, and, so far as I know, was buried in an unmarked grave in the Le Mars Cemetery. And, back at Chatton, Aunt Anne had died in 1907 of a broken heart. The youngest member of our Grandfather Tindall's family was Richard Thompson, born in 1855. He was the wanderer of the family, left home for Alnwick in his late teens and there learned the cabinet-maker's trade. And it was there that he met and married Isabella Young, about the year 1880. I checked at the Registry Office in Alnwick in 1959 for a record of their marriage, but after a rather lengthy search, was informed that the vital statistics for each parish church in the entire district were kept in separate files and, unless I knew the church in which they were married, the task might be interminable. So I gave up and drove to Workworth, some fifteen miles southeast of Alnwick, to confer with the Misses Browell, two delightful maiden ladies, whose mother had been a niece of Aunt Isabella Young Tindall. They told me that she had one sister and three brothers----James, of little account, who had served as an apprentice in the same cabinet shop as Uncle Richard, and no doubt introduced him to his sister; George, station master at Durham for many years, and William, for a long time a trusted employee of the Savings Bank, St. Nicholas Lane, Alnwick. (The bank still stands. I was taken through it and its subterranean vaults by a Rotarian friend, Mr. Thwaites.) Florence Browell, the elder of the two sisters and the more talkative, told me that the Youngs rather disapproved of Uncle Richard, thinking him a bit unsettled. However, the wishes of the young couple prevailed and they wed, and were soon on their way to America and, for at least some months, were without parents in Northwest Iowa. But before the year 1880 had come to a close they had settled near Marysville, Missouri, and in 1881 or 1882 became parents of a son, John. Aunt Isabella, never very strong, I believe, became ill in the early 1890's and soon passed away. Her death to husband and son was a sad blow. Within a year or two, they sold out and moved to Benkelman, Nebraska, without informing our parents of their move. However, on a bitter winter day in January 1895, they arrived, unannounced, at our door. They had shipped a carload of cattle to the Omaha market and had taken advantage of the opportunity to visit our folks. I was but a lad of five, but remember ten happy days spent with an Uncle and a cousin who seemed to have come from another world. No further word came from them until 1903. Our father was on his deathbed. Mother wrote to the postmaster at Benkelman for information regarding Richard Tindall, and was told that he had left the community many years before---his proposed destination---Cody, Wyoming. Mother wired him there and, by a streak of luck, he happened to come to the city and received the message. (Ordinarily he visited Cody but once or twice a year). He came directly to Iowa, was with the family when father died and for the funeral on May eleventh. The following day he left for home, the last time we ever saw him or had direct word from him. On February 6, 1906, his son, John, was murdered in the Big Horn Mountains of Wyoming. Through a banker at Meteetsa and an undertaker in Thermopolis, Nina and I were able, in 1933, to gather some fragments of information regarding the tragic event. The trouble started when John, to tease a friend, hid his wedding suit and left for the Tindall ranch across the mountains. The friend took after him on horseback, thinking he would overtake him before he traveled far and either recover the suit or find out where it was hidden. John thought it would, of course, be easily found, so went on his merry way. By the time the two men reached the ranch, the bridegroom was furious and, without ceremony, drew his gun and killed John on the spot. The case came to trial in Buffalo and the murderer was set free, on the grounds of "severe provocation". In the old cemetery on a hilltop in Thermopolis, Wyoming, lie the mortal remains of Cousin John, a crude wooden cross marking his final resting place. Uncle Richard, crazed by grief over the loss of his only son, sold out his interests and wandered off into the great Southwest where he was last heard from, by the Wyoming banker, in 1907. The post mark on the letter was "Albuquerque, New Mexico". Nina and I made a rather intensive effort to find some clue in that city in 1933 as to the probable place of his death and burial but without result. So it is most unlikely that we shall ever know anything about his last years or his passing. And, strange though it may seem, neither do we know the exact burial place of his wife, Aunt Isabella Young Tindall; we can only assume that it is either in, or near, Marysville, Missouri. There now remains but one Tindall to account for our father, James. And that will best be done by bringing him into this narrative as Mother’s husband and partner. === ROMANCE AND MARRIAGE === For some reason, never quite clear, Chatton folk were inclined to believe that Mother’s interest in the Tindall family centered on John rather than our father. Whether there ever was the least reason for such a thought must forever remain a secret, for neither he nor she, so far as I know, ever suggested that more than a sincere friendship existed between them. However, I think it can be assumed that each held the other in highest regard; and that John’s sad death in 1892 brought more than the usual measure of grief to Mother. Our father, a few years younger than John, was built on sparer lines than his brother and, I'm inclined to think, was sharper mentally. He measured a quarter-inch short of six feet, was lithe of limb and weighed just over one hundred seventy pounds. He wore a beard for most of his married life, always clean and neatly trimmed. Like all members of the Tindall family, he was reared to English rural life, with emphasis on horse-back riding, and supervisory rather than working responsibilities on the farm. He soon learned to judge a well- bred shorthorn cow or bull, and could point out the good or bad points of a horse on sight. Life at Broomhouse was well-ordered, but there was always time for fun and laughter, and both boys and girls were not averse to enjoying it to the full. Father was a lad of thirteen when his father died, so his mother was a prime factor in shaping his life. She must have been a dear person who, until her death in 1879, was the center of family life. The breach caused by her passing was never healed again. It also brought about the distribution of the fluid assets of the estate and perhaps hurried decisions that had long been held in abeyance, among them father's determination to marry. In any case, such plans were soon made and the date set for May 12, 1880. No doubt the decision to come to America caused consternation among members of both the Currie and Tindall families. And Mother's loss from the Chatton Church would be severely felt by Uncle Young and the members of the congregation. There were "farewells" and Bon Voyage parties, and the usual spate of preparations for the glad event; in fact, the days and weeks were filled to overflowing. But time, as always, passed and the day of the wedding arrived. We do not know whether skies were clear and soft winds blowing, or sun concealed by sudden clouds; we do know that happiness reigned within the hearts of bride and bridegroom. Their future together lay ahead. Members of Mother's family arrived from Scotland----her mother, Aunt Jessie, Uncle Robert and Aunt Isabella (Tindall) Currie; Uncle John and Aunt Kate (Currie) Pringle, and Uncle David and Aunt Leish Currie. Uncle David assisted Uncle Young in the marriage ceremony which was performed in the Chatton Presbyterian Church. And of course all the Tindalls and a host of Chatton friends were present for the nuptials. Reports indicate that it was both a day of gladness and a day of sadness. There were smiles and there were tears. But who's ever seen a wedding without the same? Yet, somehow, this seemed to be a wedding just a little different from the average. The young couple were going to America and folk sensed they'd never see them again. And neither they did. The reception following the ceremony brought forth expressions of love and appreciation from members of the Church and community to Mother especially. For sixteen years she had been their true and faithful friend. A Miss Clark, who was still living in 1909, gave me a graphic account of the event. She had made the presentation "speech" for the congregation when Mother was given a chaste silver-crystal biscuit box. That lovely piece adorns the home of a granddaughter, Agnes Johnson (Mrs. Winston) Yeager, of San Antonio, Texas. It is suitably and affectionately inscribed. Nina and I have another of her wedding gifts a----silver muffin dish. Mother often called it a cheese dish. Then there were a few books for both father and Mother; a few of these reside on our library shelves and are highly prized. Two names, as witnesses, appear on their wedding certificate which we viewed in the Registry Office at Berwick-on-Tweed on August 18, 1959 (Mother's birthday). They are "Adam Tindall" and "Jessie Young", and also appearing is the signature of "David Young, Officiating Clergyman". The precious minutes flew with the speed of light; the hour of departure had arrived. In a shower of rice and an avalanche of good wishes, the young couple took their places in the Broomhouse carriage. Few eyes were dry, hearts too filled with emotion for audible goodbyes; a firm pressure of the hand had to serve as a substitute and, when they reached the bridge across the River Till, they turned for a last look and a wave of farewell. What were their thoughts? We'll never know. But of this we may be sure; a soreness of heart, a sense of something which, had they been a bit older, would have caused them to pause. They were leaving scenes more lovely than are usually found on earth, dear ones who had wound the tentacles of their love about their hearts, and associations as tender as the moonlight. Their emotions were deeply stirred; it was a time for silence. From Belford Station they took the train to the home of Uncle Charlie and Aunt Elizabeth Tindall Walker at Dalton-Le-Dale, in Yorkshire, where they spent about ten happy days. Then they journeyed on to Liverpool from whence they sailed on the good ship "England" of the National Lines for America. Now indeed their thoughts must have been long, long thoughts, for they were not only leaving friends and loved ones but also the land that had given them birth, their own Britain. Mother always spoke of their three-week passage as a "stormy one", in which their 7500-ton vessel tossed about like a match stick on the angry waves. She was the world's worst sailor and suffered untold agony throughout the journey. A faded menu card, in our possession, lists a tempting bill of fare, but she was never able to enjoy a decent meal. The memory of those trying days may well have been the main reason why she never wanted to make the return trip. But finally the nightmare came to an end; they reached New York, but not to be greeted by Barthodi's famous Statue of Liberty (It was not erected until a few years later) but by health, customs and immigration agents. They passed in all categories and were soon mingling with the crowds on Broadway and Fifth Avenue. I never heard either of them describe in detail their first impressions of New York. Of course, Mother had seen London and Paris so was not overwhelmed by its size and activity. Father, much less traveled, may have been more impressed than she. However, their stay in this American metropolis was short; they were soon westward bound by train for Chicago. There they found activity----The Republican Nominating Convention was in session. Mother was impressed by a huge banner that stretched across the street from their hotel. It bore the names of James A. Garfield and Chester A. Arthur, Republican candidates for President and Vice-president. She sometimes spoke of Garfield's kindly face and his sad and untimely death within ten months of his election in the late autumn. His assassination by Charles Jules Guiteau, a disappointed office-seeker, was a disheartening experience for the newcomers, as well as for all Americans. It's never been quite clear why our parents chose Northwest Iowa for their home. Many land companies were advertising rather extensively in British newspapers at the time and "letters home" often told of success and good fortune won in America's heartland. These no doubt influenced their choice and helped determine their course. In any case, they reached Plymouth County in late June 1880. Father immediately bought a team of horses, Bob and Dexter, I believe, and undertook to break some prairie land for a settler in Sioux County. This he did for experience rather than for the remuneration he might receive. It was then that he nearly bought the land on which the town of Ireton was later built. The impulse was checked because the land had no running stream and so he bought a 160-acre tract on the Broken Kettle Creek toward the west end of Plymouth County instead. The same quarter section is now occupied by his grandson, Adam Tindall, Junior (Buster) and Helen, his wife. It was September before this transaction was completed; winter was just in the offing. A house had to be built and a barn for the horses and cows. There was much to do and little time to do it. During the building period, they lived, as paying guests, with Mr. and Mrs. Jarvis who lived a mile and a half to the northeast. Lumber and other materials were purchased in Le Mars, the County Seat, a carpenter was employed and a crash building program gotten under way. The simple rectangular two-story structure could scarcely have been built before the first winter snows were swirling out of the northwest. But the old house was built to last; it, with kitchen and bedroom addition added a few years later, was used until the early 1930's when replaced by a more spacious residence by Adam and Elizabeth Grebner Tindall. They had occupied the old place from the time of their marriage in March, 1912. One can only wish that Mother and father had left an account of those earlier years. Fortunately, they missed the grasshopper scourges of the 1870's when those voracious insects swept, like the locusts of old, across the landscape, stripping every tree, bush and flower bare of it's foliage and leaving the settler with nothing to show for his labors. And it was all done so quickly----in a matter of hours. They didn't, however, escape the threat of prairie fires; they constituted a constant hazard during the summer when the tall prairie grass sometimes reached a horse's belly. Old timers told of seeing the fires race, before a surging northwest wind, from the Sioux River to the Broken Kettle, a distance of eight miles, in a matter of a few minutes. Unprotected homesteads, live stock and machinery were consumed like paper; some settlers lost all they had. To guard against ruin by fire, men plowed wide strips of ground all around their buildings and, when fires were approaching, built backfires for greater protection. Roads to Le Mars, fourteen miles to the east, had been laid out but were, of course, little more than tracks through the prairie grass. And to the west, no surveys had been made. To reach Akron, then called Portland, one merely struck out across unmarked terrain, depending entirely on his sense of direction to bring him to the town. And neither Akron nor Le Mars matched the smaller communities they had known in Britain. Merchandise was usually crude and of poor quality and food, though plentiful, not in wide variety. Women paid little attention to style, and their wardrobes were limited. Cotton dresses were the rule, with a few woolen items for winter and, if very fortunate, a silk gown for real dress-up affairs. Silk stockings were unknown on the frontier; in fact, few were worn until the 1920’s. And shoes were made for wear rather than for looks. What dresses Mother brought I do not know. Certainly she would have her wedding gown and a few others for general wear. Father’s trunks were filled with men's wear hardly suitable for wear in Northwest Iowa---two pairs of English riding breeches, a deep purple dress suit, which appeared black under normal lighting conditions, and a blue double-breasted worsted suit that seemed to wear forever. He wore the latter for several years, but the riding breeches perhaps no more than a half- dozen times when riding with the local "English gentry" in the very early years. The dress suit was never taken from the trunk excent for an airing. And that brings us to an experience Mother had in the early 1880's. It was May, balmy breezes were fanning the prairie grass which had already turned green; it was a perfect day to air all the blankets and stored clothing. Mother had hung everything on the clothesline and had stepped into the house to take care of other duties; a lone horseback rider up the road was hardly given a glance. But he should have been, for, when Mother went out two hours later, to retrieve the clothing, one pair of father's fancy riding breeches was missing. Surely the thief got little satisfaction out of his loot, for, if a "native", his cronies would have ostracised him had he appeared in such outlandish garb. Another attempt at robbery occurred on a summer night in the early 1890's. Mary, who was perhaps ten, and was sleeping in the north upstairs bedroom, saw a buggy drive into the yard at about two o'clock in the morning. Thinking the men wanted to see Father, Mary called down to him. But at the sound of her voice, the men dashed back to the buggy and fled without ceremony. An epidemic of horse-stealing had struck the county that spring; it was, therefore, assumed that that was the mission of the night visitors. === THE FAMILY MULTIPLIES === The first child born to James and Agnes Galbraith Tindall was Jessie Young, named for her maternal grandmother. She arrived February 23, 1881, with the assistance, I believe, of Dr. R. D. Clark, of Akron. She was certainly a Tindall, fairly long of limb and with facial features favoring those of Aunt Isabella Tindall Currie. The good doctor was called again on March 2, 1882, when John David (Jack) made his appearance. Both sides were honored at the christening---John for his grandfather Tindall and David for Mother’s Uncle David Young and her brother, David Currie. Eleanor Mary Charters was born on November 20, 1883. She looked like the Tindalls but had a disposition like the Curries. Nearly two years later, October 12, 1885. Catherine Currie made it three to one in favor of the girls in the James Tindall family. However, the odds were improved with the arrival of Adam on November 29. 1886. He was a chubby lad who, with his first breath, must have inhaled a love of horses and farm life in general. He was all Tindall. I came along at the tag end of the line on January 3, 1890. It's rather amazing that Mother, under circumstances that were far from ideal, bore six children in a period of nine years and brought them all up to maturity. It’s also worth recording that all six lived beyond the allotted Biblical span of "three score years and ten". Much credit must be given to Dr. R. D. Clark, a skilled practitioner for his, or any, day, and a gentlemen in every sense of the word. And it should also be remembered that we're offspring of a hardy line of ancestors. The six of us were baptized in the Crathorne Presbyterian Church by a Reverend Mr. Smith. That of course satisfied Mother who was a Presbyterian. Whether Father, an Episcopalian, was satisfied I do not know but he at least agreed to the arrangement. He was faithful to his own church and tolerant of others. It can be assumed, I think, that he never fully understood or appreciated the more informal services of the Evangelicals; they likely went against the Episcopal grain. However, he respected them. No doubt, had the Crathorne Presbyterian Church been nearer to our home, Mother would have attended there. But a fourteen-mile journey every Sunday with horses and buggy was too great a task and, in the winter time, would often have been impossible. So, for several years, Mother was content to take her growing brood to the Sunday School conducted in our school and the infrequent preaching services held in the same place. The latter were conducted generally by ministers of the Presbyterian persuasion. I remember but one of the participating clergymen, an ancient divine by the name of King. He was truly a patriarch, with flowing white beard, benign face and musical voice. Among his most faithful supporters were Mother and Mrs. Albert (Joanna Douglas) Johnson. Mr. Johnson, a brother of John and uncle of Herb, developed a real interest in church work, as did several others in the community. Mother always remembered a Christmas program held at the school. Albert Johnson was to act as Santa Claus, Father his assistant, and Mrs. Johnson was to serve as master of ceremonies. She hustled her husband and Father out of the overheated building in plenty of time to make ready for their grand entry, upon signal, at the proper moment. The last recitation was given, the last carol sung, that moment had arrived and the signal was given. But there was no response from outside. Another signal and still another, but yet no response from Santa. Something had to be done, and it was. Mrs. Johnson, her Scottish temper sorely strained, rushed to the door and stepped outside into the bitter night air. There was Father, exercising the greatest care, trying to disentangle a brass bugle now frozen to the beard and lips of her discomfited husband. A woman of spirit and less humane than Father, who also had a beard, she pushed him aside and, grabbing the ice- cold instrument in both hands, yanked it, along with some whiskers and patches of skin, from her husband's mouth. "The show must go on"! === THE ADAVILLE CHURCH === The Adaville Church had been established in the United Brethern in Christ at the crossroads village of Adaville, in the 1860's. One of its founders was Jacob Brown, grandfather of Amy Brown who in 1905 married Jack Tindall. It must have been in the early 1890's that Mother began taking the family to Sunday School and church services in the original church building. The people, many of whom became her life-long friends, were cordial and sincere. In the very early years, she drove the horses herself, a trying experience for one as fearful of horses as she. But her religious zeal was great, her interest genuine and she was determined that her children should share the benefits of Christian training. It wasn't long before she was teaching a Sunday School class, playing the organ and helping in many other ways. In time she became a member of the Ladies' Aid program, the real backbone of the Church's missionary effort and often chief supporter of its entire program. The ladies served dinners in their homes---the amazing price; ten cents! But there were quilting and sewing bees that paid a larger return. Mother's interest in the church never wavered. For many years near the end of her life she served as President of the Missionary Society of the Adaville Church, and while so serving trained many young women of the congregation in the art of presiding and deepened their interest in the whole missionary enterprise. Many of those women still pay tribute to her leadership and her inspirations. By no measure, could Mother be considered emotional in her religious life. To her, religion was a normal experience and should be an important factor in every life. It had been so in her Scottish home, a vital part of everyday living. In those early years, she had listened to scholarly sermons delivered by some of Scotland's brightest minds and choicest spirits. And, while serving with "Uncle Young" in the Chatton Presbyterian Church and Manse, she had lived in an atmosphere of piety and grace. Uncle Young may not have been a great preacher but he was a good one. He was thorough and painstaking in his preparation, widely read in the world's best literature, reverent and devout in his ministry. He brought to his pulpit an inherent dignity that was neither diminished nor enhanced by his clerical robes. For forty years he ministered to his flock and during that entire time never lost their interest or their esteem. And when he died families mourned as for one of their very own, as did the citizens of the entire community. Jointly they erected the finest memorial in Holy Cross Churchyard to his memory, a splendid granite shaft with suitable inscription. His remains, however, are buried in the Young family plot in St. Cuthbert's Churchyard in Edinburgh. It was indeed a major step for Mother when she, out of such a background of church and religious affiliation, joined the United Brethern Church at Adaville. She no doubt missed the singing of the Psalms and, at first, the more dignified services of the Scottish church. But Mother was, among other things, one of the most adaptable persons in the world. In truth, she must have been to make the transition from the refined life of Edinburgh and Chatton to the frontier culture of the western plains. One must recall that she had lived a comparatively sheltered life, had done little, if any, hard physical work, and had enjoyed a social life that possessed many of the amenities of genteel living. Some of the western customs and practices shocked her. For instance, when she first saw American women chewing gum, she was horrified, thinking they were chewing tobacco. She never liked gum-chewing from that day forward. Houses on the prairie were generally rather poorly constructed and inadequately furnished; and water had to be carried from the well. There was no inside plumbing; laundry had to be done by hand, and bread-baking was a regular chore. The youngsters of this modern age, when we light our houses with the press of a button, can hardly appreciate the work required to keep kerosene lamps filled and cleaned. And, too, the farm wife was responsible for the vegetable garden and poultry. Since eggs and chickens were among the principal items of food for the family, the latter was no small task. Hogs were butchered during all seasons of the year, except the summer when the weather was too hot. That meant the rendering of the lard and fixing of the meat for storage. And, at least once a year, a steer was killed to afford variety to the meat menu. Jams and jellies were made during the fruit season and were stored in crock jars for keeping. Orchards were few and the variety of fruits very limited. In the autumn, Mother usually bought some baskets of Concord grapes, a favorite of hers, and made several glasses of jelly. An old Singer sewing machine was a prized possession. How early she secured it, I do not know, but it saved many a weary stitch by hand and no doubt assured at least one extra dress for each of the three girls a year. But clothes were limited for us all---a suit (short pants until thirteen or fourteen years of age) for the boys every three years, and then only if the old one was outgrown or badly worn. Overalls and cotton shirts were for every-day wear and, when well cleaned and pressed, might serve for the lesser social events. These informal clothes were considered quite suitable throughout the community; in fact, a tendency on the part of any family to "dress up" was frowned upon by certain elements and might win for itself the damning verdict; "Proud and high hat"! === EDUCATION === The lack of school facilities must have been one of Mother's chief concerns. Coming from a background of scholarly achievement, she no doubt craved the same for her own. But instead she found an ungraded school system, poorly trained teachers and an utter lack of challenging reading material. Teachers were often scarcely more advanced than some of their older pupils, and discipline, especially when the older boys, during the winter season, attended school, was sometimes entirely lacking. Only the very young were present for the full term; at ten or eleven they were taken out to help with work on the farm. The old one-room school houses in Iowa were wooden structures usually about thirty feet long and sixteen wide, with a row of double seats on either side and a pot-bellied stove in the center. The teacher's desk in the front of the room was backed by a full-length blackboard across the wall. A large Webster's dictionary either occupied a special stand or lay on the corner of the teacher's desk. And, if the district was flourishing financially, a globe and maps, attached to spring roller, were usually available. These latter features were used at the discretion of the teacher---not too often, I fear. A few children's books were arranged on the teacher's desk or shelved in a corner of the room. Favorites were Aesop's Fables, Alice in Wonderland perhaps some of the Alger books and a smattering of others. It was pretty thin fare, and soon read by the ambitious pupil. Reading, Writing and Arithmetic were the fundamental subjects, supplemented with courses in Geography and History. Spelling Bees were held on Friday Afternoon and tests, covering all subjects, were given at regular intervals. Scientific grading was really unknown, a pupil's progress determined by the reader he was using at the time fifth, sixth, seventh, etc.. And, unfortunately, the child was often forced to repeat the same material year after year. But it must be said in defense of the country schools that their readers contained better material than their present-day counterparts. The well-known McGuffey Eclectic Readers contained many choice selections from the writings of the best American and English authors, none of the trivial materials so much in vogue today. Most members of our family missed the period of the McGuffey books but benefited from the Swinton series of readers, which, though hardly the equal of their renowned forebears, were considered their quite satisfactory successors. And, too, Mother encouraged the reading of several books in our own home. Real libraries, of course, were almost unknown in the rural communities; most folk thought a good book not worth it's cost. However, that very paucity of books may have made us more appreciative of the few we had. How much we looked forward to the receipt of Chatterbox, a collection of tales of real life and high adventure, at Christmas time. And still, in memory's ear, I can hear either Father or Mother reading aloud in the long winter evenings stories of far away places and of people who belonged to another world. Such is the magic of literature; it lifts us out of our narrow environs into a world of wonder and excitement. And for this we should be duly thankful. I remember well a revolving bookcase that occupied an important place in the family sitting room. It contained no more than thirty books, I'm sure, but they were books of substance The Wide, Wide World, a popular novel of that day; In Darkest Africa, a thrilling account of David Livingstone's trek through the continent of Africa, and his discovery after many months of silence, by Henry M. Stanley, and the poems of Sir Walter Scott, a wedding gift to our parents. The latter is one of the most prized volumes in our library. Mother used every device to encourage our reading of them and other good books that came our way. Malcolm Brodie, a neighbor who lived in the Crathorne neighborhood, was always an interesting character to me. He was a Scot who, as a young man, had gone to the Far East to serve one of the large British Importing Companies as a tea-taster. Because of that experience, he was an interesting conversationalist and, in my mind, of some importance. One day, when I was a mere lad, Mother took me to the Brodie home for a visit. Two things impressed me---a fine cup of tea served in beautiful dishes and a small bookcase filled with the English classics. Mr. Brodie took on an enlarged stature in my mind at that time, and I never had reason to change my opinion of him. I'm quite sure that Mother never expected any of us to become scholars but, like all mothers, must have had dreams. She was fully aware of our limited opportunities, but insisted that we take advantage of them, such as they were. The old Le Mars Normal School, later Western Union, and still later Westmar College, welcomed at least four of the brood to its halls for one or more winter sessions----Jessie and Jack, Mary and Catherine. I, the youngest of the lot and of least value on the farm, took the seventh and eighth grades in the Hawthorne School, Leeds, Sioux City; my high school work in Leander Clark College Academy, and two years of work in the College, at Toledo, Iowa. Then I went on to the University of Chicago for two years undergraduate and a limited amount of graduate study. For all of this, I owe a never-repayable debt to Mother. She was indeed my guardian angel. === THE ADAVILLE COMMUNITY === The temptation here is to introduce too much detail into this narrative. Across the backdrop of memory flit faces and scenes that might well merit a page or more, but space and brevity must be considered. A Thumbnail sketch of the village itself, however, is justifiable. The crossroads hamlet was named for a comely young lady of the community called "Ada". It never included more than a general store, a blacksmith shop and, for a brief time, a farm machinery outlet in connection with the store----all on the corner. The Adaville church was built perhaps four hundred yards to the east and the district school a half-mile west. For a brief period there was a Woodman of the World lodge and dance hall a quarter-mile south of the store. It was rather frowned upon by a substantial element in the district because beer, and occasionally hard liquor, were dispensed at many of the dances. The store was a gathering place for the youth of the community, especially on Saturday nights. For several years, Adaville boasted a United States Post Office. Prior to its establishment sometime in the mid 1890's our family mail came through the Le Mars Post Office, fifteen miles distant. That meant, of course, infrequent pick-ups, often only at two-week intervals. Waiting for news from "home" was one of the worst trials the frontier family had to endure. But when collected what a mental and emotional feast! There were precious letters, and magazines, the golden strands that kept alive the ties of friends and loved ones. All were savored more than once to assure that no tidbit of news was missed. After Grandmother Currie's death in 1894, Aunt Kate Pringle became Mother's chief correspondent in Britain. A weekly exchange of letters between the two sisters for more than fifty-five years must have established some kind of record. And they were newsy letters, not just formalities. Other members of her own and Father's families continued to write, but at less frequent intervals. When the Adaville Post Office was established, mail was collected more frequently, but certainly not every day. One of the earliest carriers was a Mr. Taute who, with his rather numerous family, lived in a small house across the road and slightly east of the old Simpson place. For his round-trip to Le Mars, some thirty-five miles, he received the handsome salary of eighty-four cents per day. (This point should be verified, but my memory tells me it is so). Rural Free Delivery of mail in Plymouth County began in 1902, a real boon to families living in isolated areas. A daily newspaper began to have meaning for the farming community. Prior to this time, Father had subscribed to The Toledo Blade and the old Chicago Interocean, both weeklies. The first daily to come to our house was The Sioux City Tribune, and I surmise that members of the family still receive the paper. I'm sure that the Tribune solicitor must have been first on the job or Father would have subscribed to The Sioux City Journal, a more conservative paper with political and economic views that more nearly matched his own. The British magazines came more or less regularly to our home in the early days---The Sphere and The Graphic, both minted in London, well edited and richly illustrated with photographs and pen sketches. To the young American mind, they were works of art. If present-day readers are led to believe that Proctor and Gamble were the first to advertise a soap that floats, I would remind them that the Pear's Company of Britain advertised such a soap in the 1880's and 1890's under their own name. The Graphic, I remember, published complete lists, with photographs, of all British Casualties during the Boer War in South Africa in 1899 and 1900. How carefully our parents scanned those lists and how often they were saddened to read of the death of a Northumberland or Scottish volunteer whose family they had known. The first rural telephone line in our district was erected in 1904, an untold blessing in many ways, but also at times, an annoyance. The number of subscribers on any one segment of the line varied from six to twelve, each assigned a certain number of rings---one short and one long, etc. All on any segment could call everyone else on that segment without the necessity of going through "central", and everyone could listen at any time. There was, naturally, much clandestine listening, especially by those folk who delighted in every morsel of community gossip. Certainly the rural telephone was hardly suited to the conducting of private business or family matters. But the plus features far outweighed the negative; the telephone was indeed a blessing, saving many a weary mile of travel and providing a sense of security in time of illness. Bathrooms were almost unknown in farm homes in Northwest Iowa until the early 1900's and rather uncommon until the 1920's. Before that time, the Saturday night ablutions were performed before the kitchen range, a ritual that most, if not all, families observed regularly. It was also at that time that windmills and water storage tanks and reservoirs began to appear. Pipes had to be laid six feet below the surface to guard against winter freezing. Our windmill, one of the early ones, was erected in 1895, and the water pipes to cistern and feed lots laid about 1900, These improvements seem insignificant today but then they were important marks of progress, harbingers of a brighter tommorrow for folks on the farm. === THE PEOPLE === The people of Northwest Iowa were a polyglot mixture of nationalities and races. Most, however, were directly from, or were descendants of people who had come from, Great Britain, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, The Netherlands, etc., etc.,. There were a few Frenchmen, fewer Italians and an occasional Jew. On the average, they were honest and energetic. Most had come with little, or no, capital and had to make their own way from "scratch" with no help from family or friends. The one exception was the English colony that had gathered in the 1870's in and around Le Mars. Many of them were scions of wealthy families, young men who had become involved in escapades, often harmless but embarrassing to their parents. Some were sorely addicted to the use of liquor, while others were mere playboys whose parents hoped would be challenged to get on their own and do something worthwhile. These hopes were sometimes realized, but not often. For their special trade, a saloon known as the "House of Lords" was set up by one of their more enterprising members. It became the place of rendezvous for weekly, often daily, gatherings of the "Clan", and often the scene of wild and hilarious parties. Several of the men paid Captain Morton $600.00 to teach them farming. They, like some college students, were more interested in "recess" and lunch than in the labor of learning, so spent many more hours in the "House of Lords" than in the fields. These Englishmen soon became known as "remittance men" because they lived on checks received from "home" at regular intervals. Failure to receive the allotted sum at the regular time caused consternation not only to the men themselves but also to their creditors, chief of whom was the saloon keeper. In time Captain Morton's "School of Farming" closed, the remittance men either returned to Britain or went to work to support themselves. The colony disappeared. Father had little or nothing to do with these men. He had come independently, was on his own and had little use for their frivolities. Their polo team, for instance, was for men of money and leisure, and he had little of either in the early days. The polo team, it should be noted, was an inspiration of the Cope brothers who organized the colony in the first place. They were fine men and must be given credit for what they did to develop the County of Plymouth. Unfortunately one of the Cope brothers was killed in a polo game between Le Mars and Sioux City. That ended the game as far as Le Mars was concerned. There were, of course, other English families that were made of sterner stuff than the remittance men---the Frys and the Marshes, to name two at this point. Mr. Marsh had some of the characteristics of the playboy but was also a man of substance who, with his wife (formerly a Miss Statter of Sioux City) and son, Essex, lived in the Milnerville community. His farm was well-equipped with fine house and barns, and he developed quite a reputation as a breeder of fine sheep. Mr. and Mrs. Fry, I believe, came from England to America about the same time as our parents. There were six children Gladys, Maude, Winifred, Ursula, Violet, and Waldon. All are still living, except Waldon, most of them still in Plymouth County. They were a hard-working, thrifty family, a credit to the district. The English family most intimate with our parents were the Simpsons. William Dean (Billy) Simpson was a son of Mr. and Mrs. B. W. Simpson, of London. The elder Simpson was a successful lawyer, a man of character and fine ability. Desiring the best for their family, Mr. and Mrs. Simpson sent Billy to Rugby and a second son, Cyril, to Oxford. The latter was perhaps the better student, but neither son took his educational training too seriously and before long both were in trouble with their mentors, and failed to graduate. Not only were they light of heart and fancy-free, but both became addicted to the use of liquor. As a last resort, the father sent Billy to America in the 1880's, hoping he'd reform and settle down. It wasn't long before he fell in love with an English-born girl, Miss Smith, whose family lived in the Owens community, and they were married. They moved immediately to the farm his father had purchased for them directly across the road from the Tindalls. If Billy Simpson was a failure as a student he was more so as a farmer. At first he hardly knew a fork from a hoe; weeds, he knew, were a menace to good crops but he lacked the will to eradicate them. He kept the family cow tied to the front porch where she was always handy for milking. Regularity was of no importance to him in the performance of that chore. Any time would do, whenever there was a need of the precious fluid. That of course didn't suit "bossy". Needless to say, his farming venture came to a sad ending and the family moved to Merrill in the middle nineties. Times were sometimes hard for the Simpsons, their limited income no doubt often bolstered by a check from England. Mr. Simpson's ineptitude was a trial to Father who liked order and a willingness to work, and wanted at least some results from every enterprise. It's perhaps unjust to say that Billy was lazy, so let's just say that he was out of his element on the farm. And he was a most likable person, a delightful companion and a joy to the children, with his unbounded humor and never empty bag of tricks. He played the organ and piano with a certain measure of skill and much gusto. His repertoire included numbers ranging from the latest music hall ditties to Balfe, Sullivan and Brahms. We children watched with amazement his performance on an old organ, especially his manipulation of the little finger on his right hand which had been stiffened in a childhood accident. He never missed a note. And we enjoyed to the full his vocal rendering of such pieces as "The Man Who Broke The Bank At Monte Carlo", and "Climbing Up The Golden Stairs". On one memorable occasion, he had as his guest a Mr. Filson, at that time one of America's best-known theatrical performers and the man most responsible for popularizing Harris's "After The Ball", one of the best loved ballads of the century. Shortly after moving to Merrill Mr. Simpson became a section hand on the Illinois Central Railroad, and rose in a short time to the position of boss over a group of workmen. The Company had little but praise for his services and was, along with the entire community, shocked by his tragic death in July of 1914. Riding on his faithful handcar on an inspection tour of his section, he was caught by the Illinois Central "Flyer" on the trestle at the north edge of Merrill and was hurtled through the air to his death. Our family had lost a good friend. Mrs. Simpson was a much loved woman; she possessed a heart that responded to every call for help without thought of self and did a tremendous amount of good. She bore four children----Cecil in 1882, Elsie a few years later, Evelyn in 1889 and Amelia in the late 1890's. In March 1903 she came to our home to help nurse Father who had been operated on on the fifth of the month. She remained for about three weeks, caught a severe cold and returned to her Merrill home on a rather raw day. She went directly to bed, developed pneumonia and in two weeks was dead0 That was a terrible blow to her family and a severe shock to us. Life for the Simpsons was never the same again; Billy was lost; she had been the balance wheel of the family. Then, as if one tragedy were not enough, Evelyn was struck by lightning and killed in November of the same year. That nearly finished Mr. Simpson and numbed the entire family. She was a young girl of fourteen, happy and full of life. Her future lay before her; her prospects were bright. But "in the twinkling of an eye" she was gone. I didn't attend her funeral, but Adam was a pallbearer. Amelia, a victim of rheumatic fever at a very tender age, passed away in the early 1900's. Cecil, I think, reached his fifties, and Elsie, now Mrs. Shives, still resides in Fort Dodge. === NON-ENGLISH FRIENDS === The Jarvises, already mentioned in this story, were true natives, right from the Missouri Ozarks. Malachi had served for ninety days in the Union Army during the Civil War and for his patriotic services was given a Federal pension. It was no doubt a substantial portion of their limited income. He was a little, wiry man, with straggly beard and tangled hair. He was more mechanic than farmer and thoroughly delighted when pottering with an old clock or sewing machine. He was of a perverse nature, inclined to work in the fields when the weather was stormy and loaf in the shade when it was fine. He was anything but neat but, because the women folk insisted, he was usually in clean clothes. However, the same could not be said for his beard. A weakness for chewing tobacco made it an unsanitary adjunct to his face. He was, I suppose, more tolerated than appreciated by his neighbors, and a tendancy to stretch the truth didn't help in this regard. His tales were more than "twice told"; in fact, he had told them so often they had, for him, become the gospel truth. One I remember well: He was driving four horses hitched to a three-box wagon along a road at the top of a hundred-foot cliff. Everything was going along beautifully until a dog or rabbit, skittering through the grass, frightened the horses. They lunged to the edge of the bluff, then leaped into the abyss below, taking wagon, driver and all. It was something to arouse the envy of the man on the flying trapeze. The four horses landed on their feet, the wagon upright with Jarvis, our hero, still sitting upright on the spring-seat and holding a tight rein, ready to continue the drive at a "lower level". On an earlier occasion, Father and Mr. Simpson checked his stories and found that he must already be 138 years old. He probably didn't know that they had checked the time element but that would have made no difference to Jarvis, for he was an inveterate story-teller, called by some inconsiderate folk, a "constitutional liar". However, because he was a victim of his own myths, Mr. Jarvis was easily forgiven. And he did contribute a bit of mirth to many a dreary day. The distaff side of the Jarvis family was just as amusing. Juliet was a good mate for Malachi and her sister, Sarah Anne, a perfect complement to herself. Both were built on the same lines---spare of limb and frail as an aspen. They were soft-spoken under ordinary circumstances but, when tired or angry, their voices took on the sharp ring of metal and they commanded attention and respect. Juliet usually addressed her husband as "Jarvis" and, on occasion, gave the poor man a tongue-lashing that would do credit to a Simon Lagree. But these outbursts were few, so the old man led a tolerable existence. Sarah Anne was something of a mystery. Folk knew there was a "Mr. Laycock", but what he did and where he lived were never clear---until Edward Thomarson, a neighbor, decided that he was losing hay from a stack in the meadow and must do something about it. So one night he hid himself under the hay and waited. About midnight, a wagon drew up alongside the stack, a man jumped off and began to pitch hay into the vehicle. Then Mr. Thomarson appeared. The culprit, now thoroughly shaken, was Mr. Laycock. He apologized and no charges were pressed. But that midnight escapade led to the disclosure of the fact that he had indulged in such pastimes before and, while away, had been a non-paying guest at one of the State's major institutions. I'm not sure that this story was ever verified, but it was common gossip among the neighbors. Neither the Jarvises or Laycocks had children but evidently wanted some. Their desire became known when the Fullers, near neighbors, allowed their little girl, Myra, to spend a short time in the Jarvis home. By some mental quirk, the Jarvises were sure that she had been given to them and were loath to give her up when the Fullers insisted that she return home. This experience led to hard feelings and it's doubtful if the Fullers were ever fully forgiven. I have a faint recollection of attending, with Mother, a choir rehearsal at the Jarvis home. Will Hamilton seemed to be in charge and, I believe, furnished the transportation. It was dark when we arrived, very dark under the trees, and I immediately, upon getting out of the vehicle, rolled into an old, abandoned well. Needless to say, I was badly scared but otherwise none the worse for the experience. It was a cold night and I, while the singers rehearsed in the sitting room, sat with Mr Jarvis in the kitchen and watched him stoke the kitchen stove with hanks of hay. These hanks were all neatly twisted and stored in the woodbox. One can hardly imagine the amount of hay required to keep the house comfortable. We considered cobs bad enough, never used hay. That was a bit too much. It was, I suppose, in the late nineties that the Jarvises and Mrs. Laycock determined to pay a visit to their old home in the Ozarks. Driving a bay team, Bird and Pet, and leading Queen, a white, or cream-colored, mare at the tail gate, the three worthies covered some four or five hundred miles in a matter of several weeks. It must have been a real adventure but one that satisfied a yearning to revisit the scenes of their childhood. Mr. Jarvis returned with a hole in his hat which he said was caused by a bullet from a highwayman's gun. Another story he added to his repertoire. On their return, they settled in the hills near Milnerville. They were all showing their age and pulmonary difficulties were affecting Juliet and Sarah Anne. The last time I saw the ladies was on a Sunday afternoon when Mother, Jessie, and I drove to their home. In a modest house lost among the Broken Kettle hills, the aging trio were under the care of Clara Brazil, a niece. The patient (and I can't remember whether it was Mrs. Jarvis or Mrs Laycock) lay, her face as white as a sheet, her breathing heavy and labored, on a cast iron bed. It was a wee, bare room with little to suggest opulence or comfort, but it was clean. And the western window was aglow with sunshine, and outside birds were singing in the scattered trees. We remained for about two hours. Mother did what she could to cheer the solemn household and, before leaving offered a heartfelt prayer, and Jessie sang a familiar hymn. A few days later, the patient died and was quickly followed in death by her sister. Mr. Jarvis lived on, a lost individual without his Juliet, a sorrowful figure until his death a few years later. I don't suppose Mother had very many things in common with the Jarvises. They were a peculiar family. But to Mother they were human beings with hearts and souls, and they had been kind to her when she needed guidance in a new and strange land and had, for a little while, furnished her a home. She was never one to forget kindnesses; she had a responsive heart. And folks loved her for it. === CHURCH FAMILIES === If Mother were writing this narrative, she would probably say that she found her best friends within the circle of the Adaville church. Whom she would place at the head of the list, I cannot say, but I'm sure that James and Susan Stinton would be near the top. They were a devoted pair and devout members of the church. They had, I think, three children---the first a daughter who married a neighbor, George Brown, and died when very young, another daughter who married Phineas Oaks, and Edward who married Mae Morehead and lived in a house adjoining his parents. The senior Stintons continued to live on the old home place, a quarter mile west of the Adaville store, until 1900 or 1901, then retired to Akron where they died a few years later. Edward stayed on the farm until about 1915 with his family, then he also moved to Akron. All members---James and Susan, Edward and Mae---are buried at Adaville. Other family names that come to mind are the Fletchers, Bristows, Browns, Poysers, Kings and Moreheads. All played at least a minor role in Mother's early Iowa years, especially the Browns. Amy, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Brown, married Jack Tindall on June 28, 1905. Their seven children are now living in Iowa, Missouri and California. Amy was a splendid person and greatly loved by Mother. Both she and Jack were most kind to her. Amy died on January 5. 1951. and rests in the Adaville Cemetery. Their marriage was the first in our family and was a most important event. They brought back, to perform the ceremony, a former pastor of the Adaville Church, the Reverend D. W. Swender, Aunt Kate Currie Pringle, of Scotland, played the wedding march and other suitable music on the reed organ in the Brown's sitting room where the ceremony was held. Adam Tindall and Alice Brown were groomsman and bridesmaid. The night was a bit less than auspicious, with a fairly heavy rain falling, some lightning and an occasional roll of thunder. But that didn't detract from the gaiety of the occasion, or dim the future that lay ahead for the newly-weds. Another family that became active in the Adaville church in the early 1900's were the Johnsons. John and Ellen Magdalene Overmeyer Johnson settled a mile and a half northeast of our parents in 1882. There was soon some visiting back and forth between our own and their families. This increased as the children grew up and developed common interests. Herbert Arrenenine their eldest son, was born November 15, 1877 and grew up to be a young man of character and ability, displaying more than an average skill in the mechanical field and an interest in things far removed from the realm of farming. He had a probing mind and read in many fields outside that of Agriculture. On October 2, 1905, he and Jessie Young Tindall were married in the old Tindall home. It was a bright, sunshiny day, with the haze of Indian Summer hanging in the sky, and the gold of autumn decking tree and shrub. Mary was bridesmaid and George Robertson, a long-time and tested friend of Herb's, best man. A day or two following the ceremony, the bridal couple left on their honeymoon trip to California. Mother, I know, was well pleased with the marriage and always held Herb Johnson in high and affectionate regard. George Robertson also became interested in the Adaville Church when the Johnsons did, soon joined and, later, became a Sunday School teacher. A bit of his history may be interesting. He was born at Blairgowrie, in Perthshire, Scotland on February 29, 1877 and came to America in 1894. It was during the recession of 1893-94 and work was very scarce. Landing in Le Mars on an autumn day, he struck out on foot to look for farm work, taking the old Sixth Street road. Before long he met Herb Johnson and his father. They told him to go to their place and wait until they returned home in late afternoon. This he did and that evening was employed. Soon he was more than a farm hand, an accepted member of the family. It marked the beginning of a real friendship between him and Herb which lasted until George's death in Santa Monica, California, on June 29, 1944. Mother, a Scot herself, soon developed a regard for George and was not, I think, disappointed when more than a casual interest developed between him and Mary. This interest led to marriage at the old home on February 27, 1907. At school in Toledo and unable to attend, I don't have all the details of their marriage. They went to housekeeping on the old "Manny" Mann farm, adjoining the Johnsons on the north, the place now occupied by Rollin J. and Mary Clark Tindall and family. A little later they moved to the Tindall farm across from the school. And in 1917 they moved to the old Carrington farm at the outskirts of Le Mars. Their later married years were spent in Reeder, North Dakota and Santa Monica, California. Nor was Mother displeased at all when Adam chose Elizabeth, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Grebner of near Merrill, for his bride. They married in March, 1912, came to Toledo for their honeymoon and then settled down on the Tindall home farm. Never, I think, was Northwest Iowa blanketed with a heavier fall of snow than on their wedding day. Jack, Amy and family upset their sleigh in one of the deepest drifts. The Minister of the German Methodist Church, to which the Grebners then belonged, performed the ceremony and I sang, unaccompanied, "Love’s Old Sweet Song". Adam and Lizzie lived at "Broomhouse" (the Tindall home farm) until their only living son, Adam Junior (Buster), married Helen Buryanek, of Westfield, at Christmas time in 1956. They then divided their time between Akron and Atkinson, Nebraska, where they had farming interests. Catherine Currie Tindall married James Oleson, of Lemmon, South Dakota in 1912, and from thence forward lived in that community. Mother and I first saw James when he brought a shipment of cattle to the Chicago market in the spring of 1913, and were both favorably impressed. He was a man of high ideals, straightforward and energetic. Nine Grace Salzman and I were married on June 9, 1914, in the home of her parents in Toledo, Iowa. Mother had first met Nina in the early part of the year 1911, liked her as a girl and was delighted with her musical ability. This later developed into a deep love between the two and never lessened throughout the rest of Mother's life. Nina and I both consider Mother's memory one of our most precious heritages. === THE BLIZZARD OF '88 === There were hazards on the western prairie beside those of fire and grasshoppers. This fact was driven home in January of 1888 when perhaps the worst blizzard the Middle West ever experienced struck with a mighty fury. (This should not be confused with the violent blizzard that ravaged the East Coast in March of the same year.) The weather had been comparatively mild. Snow covered the ground but there were few drifts. With the larder somewhat depleted and the ever-present yearning for mail in their hearts, Father and Mother decided that he should go to Le Mars. The morning was sharp and clear. As the sun scaled the eastern horizon, Father, with Bob and Dexter hitched to the sleigh, started on the long trek to the County Seat, planning to be home again shortly after dark. He reached town by noon, stabled his horses in the livery barn and ate his dinner at the Wilters Hotel. By one o'clock, he was at the grocery store ordering supplies, then stopped at the First National Bank to take care of some business matters, called on old Mr. Condon to repair a harness and at the blacksmith shop to leave a plow share for sharpening. Things were working out just fine. He'd pick up the mail when ready to leave for home. But then he looked at the western sky. A black and ominous pall hung like a curtain just above the horizon, and gusts of wind announced a change in the weather. There was no time for more shopping. He quickly got the team and sleigh from the livery stable, picked up his groceries and called for the mail. It was then three o'clock; it would be dark very early. By the time he passed the Richardson home at the west edge of town on the Sixth Street road, a heavy wind was blowing and snow flurries were in the air. But visibility was still good and landmarks clear. And, if the storm really worsened, there would be fences to mark the way for the first few miles; but what would happen when darkness fell and there were no more fences? Only time would tell. By four o'clock, a sullen darkness had fallen on the land, the wind was rising and all points of reference had been lost. Direction now must be left to the instincts of the horses. Father didn't know where he was. He, standing in the sleigh, could turn his face from the western blasts, but the poor horses had to face it; they were nearly blinded by the ice and snow. The temperature had now reached zero and the once soft snow flakes had become pellets of ice as sharp as a well-honed razor. Time soon lost its meaning and distances could only be guessed. In the impenetrable blackness of the night, Father's only thoughts were of Mother and the children at home, and of his own chances of survival. Thinking to ease the load of the horses, he unhitched them from the sleigh and started to drive them on foot. But not for long; they soon tumbled into a creek bed. Father, having extricated himself, then decided that he must leave the horses to fend for themselves, while he struck out to find help and shelter. Surely he must have been guided by Providence, for in less than a half-hour he saw a light and, upon reaching its source, found that he had stumbled to the doorway of the John Johnson home. They took him in, thawed out his half- frozen limbs and gave him warm food. But he still had a mile and a half to travel before he reached home where he knew Mother would be frantically awaiting his return. Mother, too, had been surprised by the swift onset of the storm. Before it reached its greatest violence, she, with the help of Jessie and Jack, then seven and six years respectively, took care of the chores. With the fall of darkness, she placed a lamp in the window. There was panic in her heart, but this she must not show to the children. (I've heard it said she turned gray during that one night). Through the agonizing hours that followed, she kept calm and serene. Father, at the Johnson home, insisted on starting for home as soon as he was thoroughly warm, but Mr. Johnson would not let him go alone; the danger of freezing was too great. So accompanied by Pete Woll, the hired man, as far as the Jarvis place, Mr. Johnson and Father began their hard walk through the storm and, just within an hour, caught sight of the light Mother had placed in the window. Never was home sweeter or hearts more grateful; for them the "Blizzard of '88" was over, except for the poor horses. They were found the next morning, cold but otherwise none the worse for their harrowing experience. === OTHER FRONTIER HAZARDS === The hazard most feared by settlers, outside of prairie fires, grasshoppers, blizzards and floods, was illness. The nearest doctor was ten miles away; there were no telephones, no rapid mail service; roads were often impassable in the winter time. Home remedies had to suffice and risks were taken that would be unthinkable today. Adam was the one member of our family, I believe, who was susceptible to croup. I remember, when a mere lad, hearing his rasping cough that usually came on in the night. With amazing speed, Mother was at his side administering such medication as was on hand. Then there were the times when Jack suffered agonies with a felon (his finger is stiff to this day), and later on, when he broke his arm; when Adam was threatened with Bright's disease, and I, evidently having little or nothing to do in school, stuck a piece of chalk into my ear. Each of us required a doctor's services; long trips were necessary. Of course each of us was victim of the usual run of childhood---diseases chicken pox, measles, etc.. A series of visits by Dr. Clark in 1896-97 should have warned us that all was not well with Mother. But she was always cheerful and seldom, if ever, complained. However, things reached a climax in the latter part of the year and she was taken to the Samaritan Hospital in Sioux City for an operation. Things were "touch and go" for a few days until the doctors determined that the growth was not malignant. Then great rejoicing! None of us, I think, realized the vital part Mother played in the life of the family until she was taken away from us for a period of time. Her home-coming was a gala event. Jack even brought his favorite team of horses to her bedroom window to extend their equine greetings. Unfortunately, a hernia developed shortly after the operation. After much suffering, she was forced to submit to a second operation in March of 1903, that time at home. The surgeon in both instances was Dr. J. N. Warren, of Sioux City, one of the most skilled surgeons in Northwest Iowa. === FATHER'S LAST ILLNESS === As children, we took good health for granted. Until Mother's illness in 1897, illness seemed to miss our home. Certainly nothing was ever the matter with Father. But the picture changed in 1902. Perhaps, because I was the youngest member of the family, things may have been withheld from me, that is until one September afternoon when we were stacking hay in the northeast meadow. Father and Jack had been to LeMars and were returning home. When they reached the north end of the Foley eighty, Father alighted from the wagon and came across the field to observe the haying operation. He and Peter Blair entered into earnest conversation for a few minutes and Father continued his walk home. Peter, who was a fixture in various Tindall homes for forty years, then said to us children who were present: "Your Father is a sick man". That was all, but enough to send a chill up my spine. Before long the telltale marks of disease started to show in his face and on his body. He ate little, often nothing at all, and visits to, or from, Dr. Clark became more frequent. The good doctor had gotten his first automobile, or "horseless carriage", an open, one-seated shining black vehicle that looked more like a buggy than anything else. The crank was on the side and the steering apparatus was a hand lever rather than a wheel, and it had hard rubber tires. It was a never-ending source of wonder to us children and a terrifying monster to the horse population. It traveled about twenty miles per hour at top speed, more than twice as fast as the best horse, but it lacked power on hills and was undependable. I think it was the only auto Father ever saw, and that only through a sick-room window. It was a trying winter, cold and blustery. Sitting beside the heating stove in the kitchen-dining room, a gnawing pain eating at his "innards", his gaunt figure shrinking with each passing day, he had become a ghost of his former self. On March second, Jack's twenty-first birthday, he made a supreme effort to come to the dining table but was unable to eat but a mouthful. He returned immediately to his corner and never joined the family at a meal again. That afternoon he took to his bed and agreed to an operation which, I'm sure, he knew held little promise. Dr. Clark contacted Dr. Warren and his son, Dr. Alexis Warren, just returned from graduate study in Paris; Drs. Gilley and Ellis, of Akron. The five of them gathered at our home on Thursday afternoon, March 5, to perform one of the most delicate operations of their careers. The drama of the situation was not lost on us children. The facilities could scarcely have been more limited lighting was at a minimum, with only kerosene lamps and the feeble rays of the late winter sun filtering through a small west window. Water had to be carried from the well and heated on the kitchen stove, and the operation itself performed on the kitchen table. A trained nurse was not available at the time, so Mary served in that capacity. It must have been a terrifying experience for one so young and utterly lacking in nursing training. But she was brave and more than willing. The case was diagnosed as "tuberculosis of the bowels". The doctors, of course, knew there was no chance of recovery but didn’t tell us children; they may have told Mother. I do not know. Because of Father's serious condition, Dr. Alexis Warren remained at our place for the ensuing ten days. And within the week a nurse had arrived, a true angel of mercy. But before her arrival there were two patients in the house, for on Sunday, March 8, Mother was operated on for hernia. The same corps of doctors arrived in early afternoon; the table was again set up, the lamps lighted, the water boiled and the important, but primitive, steps were taken to assure at least a minimum of sterilization. Mary, garbed in a surgeon's gown, was again called upon to act as nurse, and, we are told, performed splendidly. It was nearly four o'clock when the operation was completed and Mother carried to her bed. Father was in the adjoining bedroom but, I believe, didn't learn of her operation until three weeks later when she visited his room. Certainly he wondered where she was during the period but seemed to be satisfied with the manufactured answers as to her whereabouts. If Mother had not known just how serious Father's illness was before, she did when she got her first glimpse of him on that occasion. I remember her saying, more to herself than anyone else: "He'll never recover". But her expression didn't impress me particularly---he was still alive and there was hope. It was not until the third week in April that something happened that shook my faith in his ultimate recovery. Jack was hauling grain to Merrill; each evening upon his return, he'd report to Father. One evening I was in the room when the report was made. Jack told Father of the enquiries of old friends as to his condition. "And what did you tell them?", asked father. Jack answered that he told them that he (Father) was getting along fine and would soon be out. "Jack", said Father, his voice as even as it had ever been, "I'11 never get well. This is the end for me". I never knew how this statement affected Jack, but it struck me dumb, I was all choked up, rushed from the room and had a good cry. From then on I, too, held no hope and, when the hiccoughs racked his frame during the last, terrible ten-day period, I think all of us shared with him his agony. We knew the end was near. Mother’s serene spirit throughout the entire period of his illness was something to admire; she was like the Rock of Gibraltar, a never-ending source of strength to us all. === FATHER'S DEATH === Death, I suppose, will forever remain a mystery. One day there is life, vibrant life, a person moving about among his friends. He is there to see, to touch, to talk to. He is warm, alert, and the blood is coursing through his veins. There is no thought of death, yet it lies just around the corner. Of course we know that Father faced death but we were still unprepared for it. It came on a bright May morning, the seventh, to be exact. We were all ushered into his bedroom at seven o'clock; the nurse was still ministering to his needs. He lay white and fragile against the pillows. His breath was labored and he was in a coma. But in half an hour he rallied and we were dismissed to take up our regular duties. The spring of 1903 was late. Late snows and early rains had delayed work on the farm; we were far behind schedule. Jack, Adam and I had begun to plow the field at the east end of the small pasture Jack with a walking plow, Adam with a two-bottom gang and I with a "sulky". We resumed our labors at eight o'clock that fateful morning. At eleven we caught the faint echo of the dinner bell which was to be our warning signal. We hurried home and again entered the silent chamber where at eleven-forty Father cast off the frail drapings of this earthly life. It was his final release from suffering these many weeks; he looked so calm and peaceful. It was the first time I had seen death at close quarters and I never forgot it. After a few moments at the bedside, I went outside. The air was clear as crystal, the sky so blue, and across in the meadow those harbingers of morning, the meadowlarks, were singing a joyous song. What a day, I thought, to leave this world; heaven could scarcely be fairer. But there was much to do. Jack and Peter Blair were soon on their way to Le Mars to make arrangements with the morticians, secure a suitable casket, etc.. Mother, the girls and the nurse did the necessary household chores and laid plans for the ensuing few days. Meals were perfunctory, really of little consequence, for no one wanted to eat; had little appetite. About five o'clock I started across the pasture to bring the cattle home. The beauty of spring lay all around us, and it was so warm, But all this was lost on me, a boy of thirteen faced with a mystery which even the adult mind was unable to comprehend. I did, however, seem to grasp the fact that life for our family would never be the same again and, though we all mourned, Mother was the chief sufferer and would have to assume enlarged responsibilities from that day forward. It was late evening when Mr. Fissel, the undertaker, arrived. He worked until nearly two in the morning, then left for Le Mars. Daylight came late in the morning. In the night storm clouds had gathered and rain had begun to fall, a heavy rain that worsened by the hour. But nothing could delay the program of preparation. Shortly after dawn, Mother and the three girls left for Le Mars to secure proper mourning clothes---black dresses, hats, gloves and crepe for us boys to be worn on hat band or sleeve. All these items were to be worn for the "official year" of mourning. They also purchased black suits for Adam and me---the first long trousers I ever had. All day long the rain fell and added a more somber note to the sad occasion, especially the drip, drip, drip with a never changing rhythm, from the eaves. Friends came to offer their condolences and words of encouragement. Other were kept away by the inclement weather. But surely the rain would cease in twenty-four hours and the sun reappear to bring a measure of comfort and cheer. However, that was not to be. All that day (Friday), Friday night, Saturday, Saturday night, Sunday and Sunday night, it never ceased, and by Saturday night, roads were quagmires, the entire countryside a gray blur of mist and darkness. The Broken Kettle Creek was flooded, the water lapping at the feed lots. The funeral service, set for Monday afternoon, could not be changed. We could only hope for a good day, but the constant patter on the roof all Sunday night convinced us that the hope was in vain. And so it was, with a near cloudburst on Monday forenoon. I had never attended a funeral before, but had heard how mournful, and sometimes almost ghastly, they were. The dreadful hour of departure came all too swiftly. From a leaden sky from whence poured an avalanche of water and on roads that had no bottom, friends began to arrive, the only one I remember vividly-------Mrs. James Hamilton who, when greeted by Mother at the door, said: "Mrs. Tindall, you know the old saying, 'Happy is the corpse that the rain falls on.'" I thought if that were true then Father must be happy indeed. Outside the rain was cascading from the roof; inside the modest sitting-room the kerosene lamps were casting an eerie glow (at one o'clock in the afternoon) and the Reverend George Chew took his stance at the head of the casket. He began; "The Lord is my shephard, I shall not want....." One could almost feel the silence. He closed with a prayer; we were ready to leave for the Adaville Church. That journey was little less than a nightmare for the undertakers and the driver of the hearse. The lumbering vehicle must have weighed nearly a ton, a good weight even for a team on dry roads. The little hill east of the house had not been scaled before the men were putting their shoulders to the rear of the hearse to ease the load for the overburdened horses. They had already traveled the fourteen miles from Le Mars and were tired. The mud reached the axles and soon filled the spaces between the spokes of the wheels. Every hill or rise presented a new challenge. But by two-thirty the cortege had reached the church, the men very tired and the horses in a lather. Mother had requested a simple service, and that it was. The casket was never opened after leaving the house. The principal scripture was John: fourteen. I thought its lines the most beautiful I'd ever heard: "Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions, if it were not so I would have told you...." They were majestic and so comforting. Most of the Scripture I remembered from that hour. And if they had meant so much to me, how much more must they have meant to Mother who had heard them so often before? A mixed quartet---Warren and Abe King and their wives, Birdie and Jennie Poyser King---sang three hymns. One I know was "It Is Better Farther On" and another, I'm quite sure, was "Abide With Me". But time has blurred my memory just a bit and I cannot recall the third. The service at the church ended just after three. The casket was again borne to the hearse by six stalwart neighbors, and the last quarter mile was begun. At the graveside, Mother and the six of us stood in the rain, now little more than a chill drizzle. The words of comittal, spoken by the minister, seemed to come from a faroff planet; the whole experience seemed more like a dream than anything else. Surely this couldn't be happening to us. But they were very real: "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust " Then with great assurance: I am the resurrection and the life". The last word had been spoken. James Tindall, born in the North of England on a January day in 1851, had found his last resting place in a lovely little cemetery in Northwest Iowa. Lowering clouds had hastened the coming of night; the shades of evening were being drawn. There was only time for a long, last look and a whispered word of farewell. It would be near dark when we reached home. All I remember of our home-coming is a sense of terrible loneliness and a vague impression that life would never be quite the same again. I'm sure that Mother gathered her "flock" in the dining room during the evening and there read a portion of scripture and offered a prayer. She knew well the source of her strength and could lay hold on things eternal. Through it all, she had proved herself a "brick". === AND THERE WERE OTHER SORROWS === We children never realized the measure of grief endured by Father and Mother in the early years ; they bore much sadness by themselves. We had seen but one uncle and aunt on Father's side, and only three cousins of Mother's, so had formed no close attachment for most members of their families. At the risk of repetition, I am going to list the family deaths during the early years---Father's sister, Eleanor, in 1883; his brother, John, in 1892, and his brother, Thomas, at Hilton, New Zealand, in 1885. Aunt Eleanor and Uncle John are buried in Holy Cross Churchyard at Chatton; Uncle Tom and his wife, Aunt Jane Rutherford Tindall, in Geraldine, New Zealand. The first death on Mother's side of the family was her Uncle, the Reverend David Young, with whom she had been so closely associated as housekeeper at the Chatton Manse for sixteen years. He died in 1890. Her next, and greatest loss, was her mother in 1894. There were many tears shed when a black-edged letter brought the fateful message. We children soon learned that such a letter always contained bad news. Grandmother Currie had been a widow for thirty-six years. Her passing severed the strongest tie Mother had with Scotland and weakened her desire to return home. Her Mother's sister "Aunt Copeland", was the third to go. I remember well the day Mother drove past the west field of the old Braun farm and showed Jack, Adam and me the letter telling of her death. Aunt Isabella Tindall Currie, wife of Uncle Robert Currie and Father's sister, passed away at Lenzie, Scotland in 1911. In September 1917, Uncle David Currie passed away at West Manse, Peebles, a victim of anemia. Uncle Robert Currie died in 1919, and Aunt Jessie McLellan in 1924. Mother and Aunt Kate Pringle were the only family members still living, Aunt Kate survived Mother by two years, dying in 1937. Uncle David’s widow, Aunt Leish, had died at Nisbet Hill, home of the David Elliots, the last night of the year 1920. Of course, there were other sorrows, many never revealed, hidden in the secret places of the heart. There were cherished dreams never fulfilled and desires never satisfied. And there were longings for familiar scenes and the faces of those she loved. But there were no uttered words, no lamentations, no weening or sighing. Life had to be lived from day to day, and how much better to live it with a smile. Mother was a philosophy of cheerfulness----always, "the best is yet to be". === IN LIGHTER VEIN AND HAPPIER MOOD === Life on the prairies was not all serious; there were times of joy and laughter as well, times when the spirits were lifted and it was good to be alive. I've already mentioned the happiness brought to our home by "Billy" Simpson, a rollicking giant of a man with a merry laugh, a rich store of tales for children and, always, a song in his heart. His visits in the early days were eagerly anticipated and thoroughly enjoyed. Another caller was John Phillips, an aging cattle-buyer, who drove a beautiful sorrel horse, Dizzy, named for England's Prime Minister, D’Israeli. He never came to our house without a bag of horehound candy, hidden deep in the pocket of his overcoat, a real treat for us children. Of course, Mother always served him a full meal or a cup of tea. Then there were the occasional visits from the Weirs, especially James and Alexander, cousins who had come from Scotland in the 1880's. I don't remember James's first wife, Izzy Blair, Peter's sister. She was thoroughly Scotch and possessor of a big heart. She died about 1896, of cancer. She and James are buried side by side in Floyd Cemetery, Sioux City, Iowa. He died in 1925 or '26. Ida Perkins, a Le Mars girl and a delightful person, married Alex in the late 1880's. A victim of asthma, she died in 1914; Alex of old age in the 1940's. Both are buried, along with their elder son, William J. who died near year's end 1961, in the Le Mars Cemetery. No account of Mother's life would be complete without reference to two Irish families who lived nearby. James Hamilton came from the North of Ireland, lived for awhile in New York and there courted and married Marjorie Arnold. She was a petite little body with a sharp mind and, at times, a sharper tongue. But she was a woman of character. James was short in stature, wore a goatee, had a steady eye and a strong will. He boasted that he was an Orangeman and didn’t always conceal his dislike for the Roman Catholics who had been their mortal enemies in the old country. He naturally had no love for the Foley family, staunch Catholics who had come from the south of Ireland. The two men sometimes clashed. Because of this inbred hostility, Father sometimes had to act as peacemaker. I remember one such incident when Father may have saved a bloodletting. The three men were repairing the roads (Mr. Hamilton was "road boss" at the time) when a heated argument developed. "Thank God, I'm an Orangeman!" shouted Mr. Hamilton. "And I thank God that I'm a Roman Catholic", retorted Mr. Foley. Father quelled that melee before it was well started, but always said that North and South Ireland would never agree. And they haven't; the six northern counties remain loyal to Britain; the southern section of the country now constitutes the Irish Republic. The Foleys had moved on to the farm a half-mile southwest of the folks in 1882, '83 or '84. Formerly it had been the home of the Lowe family, splendid neighbors, who had moved to The Palms, in Southern California. Father and Mother despaired of ever getting neighbors like the Lowes again. But the Foleys measured up in every way and proved more than satisfactory successors to the Lowes for more than thirty years. They were a large family, several of them gifted with a rare quality of Irish wit, sometimes intentional, sometimes not. An illustration or two will prove the point. The first is a mixture of humor and tragedy. How often they coincide. It was near dusk at the end of a very hot day. Mother was out in the yard for a breath of fresh air when Bridget, a girl of fourteen, ran into the yard, calling, "Mrs. Tindall! Mrs. Tindall!" "What's wrong, Bridget? Has something happened?" "Yes," said Bridget, gasping for breath, "Ma's dead, Mary's dying, and Mr. Henry can't live." Evidently it was a tragedy of major proportions. Mother quickly extracted from the frightened girl the information that Mr. Henry's team had run away while he was returning Mrs. Foley and her daughter, Mary, to their home after an afternoon's visit with the Henrys. She and Bridget were soon on their way to the Foleys' at a rapid pace. Things were hardly as bad as Bridget had picture them, but bad enough. Mrs. Foley was suffering from shock and concussion, with a terrible gash across the temple and a scar that lasted a lifetime; Mary had a broken leg, and Mr. Henry was badly bruised. The doctor arrived soon after Mother, and took charge. But it was months before any of the three got about in normal fashion again. Mother's friendship with Mrs. Foley lasted until the latter's death in the late 1920's. To Mrs. Foley, Mother was without fault, except that she was a Protestant! One afternoon, while Mother was spending a few days with her friend in Akron, she attended a Catholic Church bazaar. During the program, a drawing of numbers for a beautiful home-made quilt, was held, and Mother was stunned when she heard her name announced as the winner. Mrs. Foley had bought a number in Mother's name. Mother's Presbyterian-United Brethern conscience was strictly against raffles and lotteries, but the quilt was lovely and a refusal to accept it might be embarrassing. So Mother compromised (or did she?) and, having determined the value of the prize, contributed the sum to the treasury of the church. At times she displayed the wisdom of Solomon. === A NEW CENTURY IS USHERED IN === The last night of the nineteenth century was cold, crisp and clear in Northwest Iowa. The snow, some eight or ten inches deep, glistened like diamonds in the glow of the waning moon before the night was through. With imagination, one was sure he could distinguish the faint outline of the school that lay a mile to the east and pinpoint the grove of maples and elms just across the road. It was a night in which the crafty fox would leave his lair and tread lightly the devious path that led to the henhouse, and the mournful wolf would howl at his shadow. It was seven-thirty when we heard sleighbells entering our driveway. We children were agog; we expected no company. Mother, like all women, said, "There's nothing in the house to eat." But her worries were unnecessary; the company had brought their own food, and in volume. Seated in the bottom of the bobsled, with heavy overcoats and blankets, were Mr. and Mrs. Edward Stinton and daughter, Neva; Mrs. Orvast Gaston, sister of Mrs. Stinton, her daughters, Rena and Alma, and her sister-in-law, Elytha Morehead (Mrs. Lambert), and others whose names I cannot recall. It was a merry crowd who participated with enthusiasm in a variety of activities---games, charades and a lot of pure fun. Refreshments were served at eleven o'clock. Reminiscences were exchanged, other New Years recalled and old friends remembered. High against the wall, the old clock ticked off the fateful minutes---eleven-thirty, eleven-forty-five, ten minutes to, five minutes to---. Emotions ran high. This was no ordinary year's end; it was the end of a century; something that no one in the company had ever seen before and none would witness again. Rather sobering, of course, but not enough to dampen the enthusiasm of the hours. A new century lay ahead, a century that all hoped would be brighter and better than the one just ending. It was one minute to twelve; the ghosts of a hundred years were skipping like moonbeams across the snow-clad hills. It was the "witching hour." The old clock seemed to hesitate, then chimed: one, two, three........eleven, twelve! Shotgun fire could be heard in the distance. Someone was already ringing the dinner bell at the door. In time everyone had had his turn, sometimes turning the heavy instrument completely over. It's sound must have carried for more than a mile in the frosty air. "Old pup", our ancient canine, had sought shelter under a bed and other dogs throughout the neighborhood were howling in protest against the unearthly noise. Mrs. Gaston, I believe, was the first and last to ring the bell; she was fascinated by its tone and was moved, I'm sure, by the import of the occasion. The celebration lasted a full half-hour, then all entered the house again and, with Mother at the organ, joined in singing "Auld Lang Syne". It was indeed a night to remember, a memory to cherish. === THE NEW CENTURY BRINGS CHANGES === Within three years following that eventful night, Father had gone to his reward; within five years, both Jack and Jessie were married and living in their own homes. Mary and Catherine were married in little more than seven years; Adam was operating the home farm and I, after completing the eighth grade at Leeds, was at Toledo for high school training in Leander Clark College Academy. It was a fine example of how swiftly and radically the life of a family can change, the old order never to be reestablished----the "ever-whirling wheel of change, to which all mortal things doth sway." None of us sensed the great changes taking place as did Mother. Her responsibilities had multiplied with Father’s death. There were business matters he had taken care of, decisions he had always made. Jack, of course, was her strong right arm and helped her in a hundred ways. He joined her in the management of the Simpson farm for Mr. Simpson in London. They continued this service, as Father had done, for several years, without charge. She was also fortunate in having the services of Peter Blair, a friend tried and true who lived with the Tindall family between 1900 and 1939. In September of the latter year he died in the home of Jack and Amy, near Le Mars, and is buried in the Adaville Cemetery. In early 1904, Mother screwed up her courage and bought a driving horse and phaeton for her own use. Topsy was a cream-colored mare, gentle as a lamb and always ready to do the bidding of her mistress. For the ensuing few years, Mother, Topsy and the phaeton were familiar sights on the highways and byways of the community. The family was a bit fearful when Mother began driving for the second time, but fears were allayed after watching her performance with the reins and noting the gentle disposition of her steed. === CONFIDENCES === No doubt everyone of us children exchanged confidences with Mother, who had an understanding mind and heart. Those were moments when life’s deeper meanings were discussed and some of the mysteries exposed, if not resolved. Even as wee children, she told us more than fairy tales, of far away places and folk worth knowing about. And how often she spoke of "home", and those she loved so dearly. Her descriptions were vivid, so vivid in fact that when I saw those places and people many years later I seemed to have seen them before. She had a sharp memory and was able to recreate the experiences of her childhood and youth in a graphic manner. How often, when I was a mere toddler, she took me to bed with her and unfolded bit by bit the story of her life. Then, just as I was slipping into slumber and before she would carry me to my own bed, she would whisper one of the psalms and recite the Lord's Prayer. They were moments more precious than gold, yes, than much fine gold. Then, when I was older and better able to understand, she spoke of life and its meaning, of a man's work and his responsibility. She emphasized the importance of character, of kindness and respect for the rights of others. Like her fellow-countryman, Robert Burns, she recognized the worth of every human being, and saw in him the handiwork of God. One day in the summer of 1910, she and I took a rather long drive. The weather was warm, not hot; the corn had been "laid-by" and there was a lull in farm activities. Overhead an azure blue sky stretched from horizon to horizon; rain was needed, but crops were not suffering. Our destination was the Hamilton farm, a few miles south of Adaville. We arrived at eleven o'clock, had dinner at twelve and spent a pleasant afternoon visiting with Mrs. Hamilton and her son, Joe, who lived with her, and with Will and Daisy and family who lived in an adjoining house. It was the last time I ever saw Mrs. Hamilton, Will or Daisy. Mrs. Hamilton died within a year, Will not many years later, while Daisy spent several years as a widow in Merrill. At four o'clock we started home. Our conversation had to do with the experiences of the afternoon and the long-time friendship between the Hamiltons and ourselves. We had just about exhausted those subjects when Mother said, "Robert, I sometimes wonder about your religious faith. Just what are your beliefs?" She had never addressed me so pointedly on the subject before, so I was somewhat taken aback. "Of course," I answered, "some of my early concepts have changed in a measure, but the great truths remain the same. I'm not so literal in my interpretations as I once was, but the essence of the whole Bible story is just as beautiful, wonderful and impressive as it ever was and, I believe, more meaningful." I had recently read Weatherford's The Christian Life, A Normal Experience, and told her of his interpretation: that man is naturally religious and forever seeking a higher power, a being in whom he can put his trust and in whom he can have an abiding faith. "I suppose we all change our beliefs in a measure as we grow older," said Mother. "I hardly see things as I did when a girl. In fact, the whole Christian way of life has taken on a larger meaning during my adult years, changed somewhat but fundamentally the same where the great truths are concerned." "I agree. In fact, my creed has become very simple----faith in God, in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the workings of the Holy Spirit in the lives of men. And, of course, we must earnestly endeavor to live according to Christ's teachings." "That's all I wanted to know. My creed is much the same." === TOLEDO AND CHICAGO === The years were passing; Mother was sixty-six and work on the farm was becoming more burdensome. I'm not sure whether she thought Adam wouldn't marry so long as he had a "housekeeper" but whatever the reason, she began laying plans to join me at Toledo. Decisions were reached in the fall of 1910 and she came to Toledo in early January, 1911. I had arranged with Mrs. Elmer, on College Avenue, to furnish Mother a room and board while we were securing a home of our own. The selection was a happy one, for Mother and Mrs. Elmer became good friends. I wondered how Mother would adjust to a new community; folk at her age often found it difficult to make new friends and fit into strange surroundings. But her ability to adapt to new conditions reasserted itself once more and within a short time one would have thought she had lived in Toledo the greater part of her life. She received warm welcome at the United Brethern Church, joined the Missionary Society and quickly formed several friendships. There were also a few Scottish families in Toledo with whom she was soon on intimate terms---the Davidsons and the Muirheads, to name but two. Three things rather amazed me---her interest in setting up a new home, her physical strength and her buoyant spirit. She soon rented a house and furnished it in good taste. In the process, she walked many miles and made many business contacts. One would have thought she was a young woman establishing a home for the first time. In April, 1911, her sister, Aunt Kate Pringle, and her niece, Leslie Douglas Tindall, arrived from Britain. It was indeed a joyous reunion, the second with Aunt Kate who had visited in the United States in 1905; and the first with Leslie whom she had not seen since 1879, when Leslie was an infant of five months. Observing such a reunion I was made to realize as never before the fact that "blood is thicker than water." Mother and Aunt Kate reveled in each other's company. There were hours upon hours of conversation about people and events, and an endless series of questions : "Do you remember?" "What ever happened to so-and-so?" "Does David still do this?" "And how are Robert and Isabella?" With cousin Leslie, the talk centered on Chatton---the Presbyterian Church and its minister, the Reverend Mr. Thorpe; upon David Allen, the aging Postmaster who had been such a good friend of Mother's; of Wandon and Leslie's own family and old Broomhouse, Aunt Mary and Uncle Adam. Items for conversation were never lacking; interest never lagged. In the spring of 1912, Aunt Kate completed her visit, bade us goodbye and started on her return journey. Both she and Mother realized that this would likely be the last farewell. At New York she boarded the S. S. "Baltic", the same vessel I had sailed on in February 1909. On April 15, the newspapers "screeched" in glaring headlines: "Disaster at Sea!" Our thoughts were immediately with Aunt Kate who would have been about half way across the Atlantic. But further reading revealed the fact that it was a sister ship, the "Titanic". However, the "Baltic" had turned back to render what aid she could; Aunt Kate might witness a dramatic sea rescue. But neither the "Baltic" nor any other rescue ship reached the "Titanic" in time. She had been struck by a monstrous iceberg amidships and rendered utterly useless. The greatest and the "safest" liner afloat at that time floundered for a few hours in heavy seas, then slipped below the icy waves with a loss of more than fifteen hundred lives. The "Baltic" reversed itself again and headed for its home port in Britain. And people wondered if there would ever be a one hundred percent safe ship. It's doubtful. Leander Clark College open its sixty-second academic year in September, 1912. I was entering my senior year, lacking a few credits. If I were to graduate with the class of 1913, I would have to carry an unusually heavy schedule of classes. During the years in the Academy and the College, I had participated in many extra-curricular activities---glee club, tenor in mixed church quartet, member of the editorial board of The Owl and the Editor-in-Chief- of the College Yearbook, Cardinal. '13. I had played football for five seasons and some inter-class basket ball. Like many other college students, my outside activities had interfered with my regular studies; the time had come to strike a better balance; football had to be sacrificed. The withdrawal of any regular team member was enough to create a miniature storm; the College always had a small squad, every man was needed. There were charges of disloyalty, some snide remarks in the newly organized campus paper, The Record, and direct pressure from the President. After a late night session in his office in which the matter was thoroughly discussed I decided that a change of schools might be my only way out. But what would Mother say? Without her cooperation, I could do nothing. The interview ended, I rejoined Nina in the hall where she was waiting, and the two of us, along with Jenifer Lichty and Spencer Nelson, walked home together. I left Nina at her door, walked across the street to our home and, finding Mother's light still burning, asked if I might have a talk with her. She agreed, of course, had in fact anticipated my difficulties. I told her of my experiences of the evening. Then she asked what I would like to do. I said I would like to transfer to the University of Chicago, that if I remained in Toledo the pressure to play football would continue and my studies would suffer. "I know," she said, "the criticism you've been subjected to and I haven’t liked it, and have feared that your college work would suffer under the circumstances. Go to bed now, and we'll talk it over in the morning." I'm sure she didn't sleep much that night; I didn't. In the morning she had decided, if it still seemed desirable, that she would agree to a change of schools and she and Leslie would accompany me to Chicago. It was nearly time for registration of students for the fall quarter at the University. So, in a few days I was on my way, followed by Mother and Leslie within ten days. We took an apartment at the corner of Ingleside Avenue and 62nd Street, and continued to live there until my graduation on March 17, 1914. Several of Mother's Toledo friends were quite sure she would be lost in the great city; there would be no friends and she would be bewildered by the hustle and bustle of the metropolis. I, I understand, was roundly criticized for taking Mother into a situation that could bring only "unhappiness". Of course they didn't know Mother, of her life in Edinburgh, of her travels and other experiences. Nor did they appreciate her independent spirit. Actually, she made the transition, I believe, more easily than Leslie or I. Within two weeks she was attending the Leyington Avenue Baptist Church, located within three blocks of our home, and greatly impressed the minister, the Reverend Doctor Boynton who at that time was one of the denomination's leading preachers. Leslie attended St. James Episcopal Church which suited her to a "T", and I was asked to join the University male choir of twelve voices. So all of us made our religious connections in a brief time. I never heard Mother say so, but I am of the opinion that the Chicago interlude constituted one of the happier periods of her life. She liked to visit the stores, never seemed to fear the traffic or dislike street car travel. There were week-day meetings at the church and social gatherings of women that she thoroughly enjoyed. Her interests were many and her energy was boundless. She and Leslie were more like sisters than aunt and niece and got along beautifully. During the Christmas holiday of 1913, Jack and Amy, Clark, Richard and Florence paid us a visit. How much Mother enjoyed them, especially the children for whom she could not do enough. With my graduation, the Chicago days came to an end. She reluctantly I'm quite sure, gave up the apartment and, with Leslie returned to Northwest Iowa where, for the rest of her days, she was the welcome guest in the homes of her married children. In July, Leslie returned to England just in time to see the start of World War One. Mother watched with horror, that terrible carnage from a distance but shared intimately its tragedy when relatives and friends lost members of their families. And, too, her beloved Britain suffered losses from which it never quite fully recovered. She was spared the agonies of World War Two; she died four years before it began. There are, perhaps, times when it is well to die. === THE SUNSET YEARS === Travelers on the South China Sea are always deeply impressed with the lingering sunsets to be seen there. The blood-red sun, set in an intricate frame of golden clouds, seems to hang for an interminable period just above the horizon, then gradually disappear into the land of tomorrow. But even then the glory of its setting doesn't end. The gay, crimson colors turn to gold, to rose, to lavender and, at last, to deep purple. Night falls, yet long, slender fingers of blue, faint but beautiful, reach across the evening sky. Once seen, they're never forgotten. To me, Mother's later years were like a lingering sunset. She was seventy years old when she left Chicago and hoped, I'm sure, she might have another ten years. But God was good and granted her twenty. She reentered with energy into the life of the old community and watched with a never-waning interest her numerous grandchildren grow into manhood and womanhood. She applied her talents to the Missionary Society and served as its President for several years. There were friendships to be renewed, a comparatively large correspondence to be carried on, and always acts of kindness to perform. She responded to every call upon her time and talent, as long as she had the strength. She was the eternal optimist, the breath of an endless spring. Cousin Annie Forrest Pringle, after her visit to America in 1922, said Mother was one of the most remarkable women she had ever known. And so thought all her children. From whence this indomitable spirit? One cannot ignore her fine heritage. The sterling qualities of her parents and grandparents were transplanted into her---the granite will, the constant hope, the abiding faith she claimed for her very own. She was well prepared, formally and informally, for the life she was destined to lead. She saw death early, and was acquainted with sorrow when a mere girl. These experiences steeled her for the vicissitudes of the later years. She appreciated all of life's blessings, but most of all those with a spiritual content. She believed with all her heart that man's chief end was to serve God and his fellowmen. And a multitude of people could testify to Mother's outstanding success in living up to that high purpose. Nina and I paid annual visits to Iowa Between 1931 and 1934 chiefly to see Mother and Nina's parents at Toledo. (Her father died in 1932). Each year the curtains were more closely drawn, Mother's energies reduced. But still she insisted on doing as much as possible for herself. The great change came in 1934 We missed the luster in her eyes, the usual sharpness of mind and the firmness of will. It was October and the country was golden. On a lovely Sunday morning, she accompanied Nina and me to the Adaville Church, the last church service we ever attended with her. Asked to sing a solo, I chose George Mattheson's lovely hymns "Oh, love that wilt not let me go, I cast my weary soul on thee; I give thee back the life I owe, That in thine ocean depth its flow May richer, fuller be." That morning I sang it not only as a prayer to the Almighty, but also for Mother whose love indeed had never let any of us go. I could only hope that she somehow understood. It was nine o’clock, Saturday morning, March 16, 1935. I was just closing a letter to Mother when the telephone rang in our Salinas, California home. "This is Jessie," said a voice on the other end of the line. "We’re calling to let you know that Mother is critically ill and that her recovery is very doubtful." At that juncture, Adam came on the line and confirmed the information. I told them that Nina and I would leave for Iowa the next morning but I would like a telegram with further information before leaving home. It reported that Mother’s conditioned had worsened during the night, that she was weak and in great pain. With hasty plans completed, Nina and I got under way by car at ten o’clock on Sunday morning. That night we spent in Bakersfield, California. On Monday evening we reached. St. George, Utah. The weather had been fine but a change was brewing when we went to bed and by morning it had turned into a cold drizzle. We drove about fifty miles before breakfast on Tuesday morning. Snow flurries were already in the air and it was getting colder. All day we traveled over rugged mountain roads through the snow, which by late afternoon had taken on the proportions of a real blizzard. Drifts were often two to four feet deep and visibility greatly reduced. We were chilled to the bone and welcomed the warmth of our motel room when we reached Salt Lake City at six. I immediately wired Akron (actually Hawarden) and at ten-thirty received the following answer, "Mother passed away at seven this morning." It was indeed sad news. A light had gone out of our lives. The cheerful, lovable person we'd taken for granted for so many years was gone and would never welcome us "home" again. A profound change had come for all of us in the twinkling of an eye. Life would never be the same again. Speed was now of the essence. We drove into Echo Canyon on Wednesday morning, the lofty peaks of the Wasach Range standing guard on either side, crowned with the last snows of the winter. An invisible coating of ice on the paving nearly led to a disaster when a careless driver crowded us to the outer edge of the highway. The car was totally unmanageable on the glasslike surface. For a hundred feet we twisted and swayed, then the front of the car went over the canyon's edge and hung suspended in mid-air. Our slow speed and I'm inclined to think an act of Providence, saved us from severe injury or death. Fortunately, a large truck came along in minutes; a kind driver and his helper attached a cable to the rear axle of our car and hauled us back onto the highway. How thankful we were and how carefully we drove for the remainder of the journey. That night we spent in Cheyenne, Wyoming. We thought the worst of our difficulties were over but, when having the car serviced at a gas station on Thursday morning, we saw what we thought was a rather ominous rain cloud at the top of Sherman Hill, to the west. "That," said the attendant, "is a dust cloud." We had read of dust storms but had never experienced one and after that day hoped we'd never experience another. By the time we reached the Wyoming-Nebraska border, we were engulfed in a veritable blizzard of dust. Visibility was reduced to a hundred yards. Terrible gusts of wind almost lifted the car from the roadbed; cars were stranded and deserted alongside the highway. Inside the car, we were nearly choked by the flour-fine dust, our faces blackened, our nostrils nearly closed. Throughout the day, we drove in eerie twilight, never quite sure of our directions and always fearing that our Studebaker might "conk out". Shortly after six o'clock, we reached Columbus, Nebraska, called Le Mars by phone and talked to Mildred Tindall. She reported that most of the family were with Mother at Adam's and Lizzie's and that the funeral was set for tomorrow, Friday, March 22. We ate a light supper in Columbus, then proceeded on our journey, arriving at Herb's and Jessie's at one o'clock on Friday morning. They and Mary and Kate, who had arrived from Lemmon, South Dakota, got up to bid us welcome. We had reached the end of the saddest journey I'd ever taken, the second saddest for Nina who had returned to Toledo, Iowa, at the time of her father's death, March 9, 1932. === THE SADNESS OF FAREWELL === Friday, March 22, 1935, was more like May than March. An azure sky was clear of clouds and a warm, soft breeze blew out of the south. One would have sworn that summer was "just around the corner". Birds sang in the trees and the fragrance of jonquils and daffodils scented the air. It was a day in which it was good to be alive. But in the house on the farm to which she had come fifty-five years before as a Scottish bride, Mother lay cold and still. However, when I entered the house and looked at her in the casket, I almost thought she was alive and would hardly have been surprised had she spoken to me. Gone were the marks of age so evident five months before---the hollow cheeks and sunken eyes. There she lay, the Mother I had known in earlier years, the suggestion of a smile on her lips, her face full and firm, and the hands, the most beautiful hands in the world, I thought, seemed ready to grasp my own. For minutes we children gazed upon her peaceful face. Each remembered a sacred hour in which we'd shared the bounties of her tender and generous heart. As we tarried at the casket's side, the bright afternoon sun, shining through the window at the west, cast a shining ray across her face and form. Every feature was clear and lovely. In the adjoining room, friends and neighbors had arrived for the last sad rites; the hour of departure had arrived. The Reverend Mr. Hollingshead read a brief scripture and offered a prayer. We three sons and three grandsons carried the casket to the waiting hearse and the solemn cortege got under way. At the church three ministers participated in the simple services that Mother had requested---the Reverend Mr. Hollings head presided and preached the sermon; the Reverend Mr. T. F. Potter, of the Le Mars Baptist Church, read the Scripture, and the Reverend Mr. Smith, pastor of the Crathorne Presbyterian Church offered the prayer. Each spoke briefly on Mother's long and useful life and her contribution to so many lives and institutions. And Mrs. Hollingshead told something about her work in the Missionary Society. Mother might have thought the praise too fulsome; the rest of us thought it just right. It was after three o'clock when the services at the church came to a close. Again we gently placed the casket in the hearse. Never had the distance from the sanctuary to cemetery seemed so short. We wanted more time with her, to think, to recall, to relive for just a few more moments the experiences of the days now gone. But time's a cruel taskmaster. We set the casket over the grave on its supporting frame; the minister stood at its head and intoned: "I am the resurrection and the life, saith the Lord; he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; and whosoever believeth in me shall never die." Comforting words, words that Mother fully believed and which we, standing beside her open grave that sunny afternoon, could not doubt. It was all over so quickly; we stood glued to the spot for a little while, with deep, but suppressed, emotions. Then old friends and neighbors began to file past---the Stintons, the Browns, the Moreheads, the Fletchers, the Bristows, the Kings, the Foleys and the Baldwins. Mother's cousin, Alexander Weir, and his son, William J., were also in line. Faces rose out of a misty past, faces I had not seen for thirty years. All expressed a profound regard for Mother, spoke of her infinite capacity for friendship, and her utter unselfishness. She had loved all of those people and they, in turn, had loved her. Gradually one began to understand that this was no ordinary funeral. Of course there were tears, but there were more smiles. It was a meeting of kindred minds and hearts, a great outpouring of love and affection for one "loved and lost awhile." I, and others, lost the sense of the time and were surprised to note the lengthening shadows cast by the pine trees and neighboring tombstones. On those stones were engraved the names of a host of men and women Mother had known through the years. She was indeed among friends and not alone. So we left her that afternoon with a tenderness of heart no one could describe. For over ninety years she had gone about doing good, her life a blessing to the members of her family, and to countless men, women and children whose lives she had touched. Truly she was not dead; "God’s finger touched her.........and she lived.

Also transcribed below. == Commentary == Author is William "Bill" Deyo,[[Deyo-464|William Deyo]] tribal historian for the Patawomeck tribe. This article is often cited as proof that [[Powhatan-3|Pocahontas]] had a daughter named "[[Powhatan-239|Ka Okee]]" through an earlier marriage to an Indian named [[Powhatan-173|Kocoum]]. While the marriage to one "private captaine called Kocoum" was referenced by [[Strachey-7|William Strachey]],William Strachey, Historie of Travell into Virginia Britania (1612 [check]), eds. Louis B. Wright and Virginia Freund, Kraus Reprint Limited, Liechtenstein 1967 p. 62. (In an 1849 edition, the information will be found on [https://archive.org/stream/historietravail00majogoog#page/n114/mode/1up p 54].) there is no evidence of offspring from this marriage. And some historians have shed doubt on the interpretation of Strachey's naming of "Kocoum."Charles Dudley Warner, "The Story of Pocahontas," Part II (https://www.gutenberg.org/files/3129/3129-h/3129-h.htm), 22 Aug 2006 Some generations down from this supposed daughter are also in doubt. See below. Because multiple families (Robeson, Peyton, Newton, Gordon and Sullivan) all claimed descent from on [[Unknown-332659|Christian (supposedly Pettus) Martin]] (who was said to have had much Indian blood), and because Christian Pettus was said to have been born about 1636/7, Deyo theorized that Christian's mother must have been Ka-Okee and a daughter of Pocahontas. "That explained the fondness of the name of 'Rebecca' by the descendants of the Martin family."As of January 2024, the descendants list from [[Unknown-332659|Christian Martin]] includes the name Rebecca only twice-- once as a given name, another as a middle name. === Claims === Deyo's article lacks references for a number of claims, including: * Pochontas was claimed as an ancestress by both Roberson and Peyton families. * that by her first husband [[Powhatan-173|Kokoum]], Pocahontas had a daughter [[Powhatan-239|Ka-Okee]] who: ** married a member of the Pettus family, "likely a brother of [[Pettus-8|Col. Thomas Pettus]] who had a sister named [[Pettus-135|Christian]] and owned land that adjoined that of Chief Wahangonoche which was the later home of Ka-Okee's daughter Christian." *** Col. Thomas Pettus had a brother [[Pettus-156|Theodore]] who came to Virginia in 1623 and was still in VA "near end of 1626 when he made a testimony in court" ** was mother of [[Unknown-332659|Christian]] who m1 [[Martin-30281|[John] Martin]], m2 [[Waddington-216| [Francis] Waddington]]. ** had her identity as daughter of Pocahontas "probably kept secret by the Patawomecks to protect the safety of the child;" ** that she was raised by the Patawomeck tribe. * NOTE: Deyo cites Custalow and Daniel, ''[[Space:True Story of Pocahontas|True Story of Pocahontas]]'', admitting that the book only calls this child "Little Kokoum" [a male!] and that the authors admit they know nothing about the child from the sacred Mattaponi history. * Mattaponi Chief, O.T. Custalow married Elizabeth Newton of Stafford. * Rebecca Martin Peyton, claimed to be named after a child of John and Christian [Pettus] Martin; Deyo believes Rebecca was the oldest child of John and Christian; and that she was the first wife of [[Waugh-16|Rev. John Waugh]] [WikiTree's profile for Waugh has no wife Rebecca attached as of Jan 2024]. ** Rev. John Waugh later married [[Martin-26777|Christian]], another daughter of [[Martin-30281|John Martin]] and Christian [i.e., then sister of his first wife "as was often done in the old days"]; this second wife married second Evan Williams. [WikiTree's profile of her as of Jan 2024 has her FIRST married to Williams, then to Waugh.] * Close connections between the Rolfe and Pettus families in England. * That while Pocahontas visited John Rolfe's estate in England, she "no doubt met the Pettus family" and asked them to check on her daughter Ka-Okee if they ever visited Virginia; and that one of them must have and then married Ka-Okee ** That he could have been a son of William Pettus and Elizabeth Rolfe who were married in 1594. * [[Powhatan-235|Chief Wahanganoche]] married a daughter of his cousin Ka-Okee; strong connections between Patawomeck and Pamunkey Indians * [[Powhatan-170|Opechancanough]] married his own niece, Powhatan's daughter, [[Powhatan-5|Cleopatra]], sister of Pocahontas. * It was common practice of the head of the Federation to take a wife and then send her away after she had given birth to her first child. * That the exception was "favorite" wife who lived with the head of the Federation and bore him many children; that she was "favorite" because she was of royal bloodline and through her the male chief could inherit his rule. * From the above, Deyo concludes that the mother of Pocahontas and Cleopatra was Chief Powhatan's favorite wife [[Powhatan-175|Winganuske]]. ** Winganuske had royal bloodline through her mother, the eldest of the two sisters of Chief Powhatan * Patawomeck tribe was one of the subjects of Powhatan "as he stated in his own words, and a part of the Powhatan Federation. * In 1622 [[Smyth-536|Capt. John Smith]] visited Great King of Patawomeck who told Smith that "Optichipam [next brothr of the late Chief Powhatan, who died in 1618] was his brother." * That Great King of Patawomeck (or Capt. Smith or Opitchipam?) refused gift of beads from opechancanough, the next brother of Opitchipam that were given to him to kill [[Croshaw-6|Capt. Rawleigh Croshaw]] and caused the break from the Powhatan Federation." * That [[Powhatan-6|Japasaw]] married a daughter of Powhatan, a sister of Pocahontas, and a daughter of Winganuske * That Japasaw's younger brother was Kocoum (first husband of Pocahontas) * When Pocahontas visited England in 1616, she took a number of relatives and friends with her, including "two daughters of no lesse than petie kinges" one of whom must have been brother of Wahangonache who succeeded Japasaw.

Stories about the ancestors told by his grandaunt, Anne (Roberson) Hudson, and his grandfather, Leonard Madison Hudson, made him anxious to learn more about these people of the past who were his forebears. The most intriguing stories were about the ancestors of Indian blood, Chief Pasapatanzy, the Indian girl, Ka-Okee, and even Indian Princess Pocahontas, herself. As a child, every Christmas he would put on his Christmas list to receive his family tree, but it never became a reality. As a teenager, he started compiling his own ancestor charts of the names given to him by his elders. During his first week in college at the University of Richmond, he became familiar with the large genealogical collection at the Boatwright Library and was taught by the Reference Librarian, Miss Francis, how to use the various genealogical reference books to trace his ancestry. The most wonderful discovery was a book about the descendants of Pocahontas and John Rolfe by their descendant, Wyndham Robertson, a former Governor of Virginia. Since so many of Bill’s relatives had told him that he was a direct descendant of Pocahontas, he was determined to find out how that came about. He studied the various descents from Pocahontas and John Rolfe for many months without finding any possible lineage to his family. Over the years that followed, he found many other clues that Pocahontas was an ancestor, but could not find any ancestors who connected with the genealogy of the descendants of Pocahontas and John Rolfe. He eventually decided that, if Pocahontas really was an ancestor, her connection to his family was simply an unsolved mystery. Apparently, the time was just not right for the line of descent from Pocahontas to be known, as will be shown. ::

: Not being able to solve the lineage back to Pocahontas, Bill began to concentrate on the other ancestral lines. When he was home from college, he would go with his grandmother and grandaunt to visit many of the older relatives in Stafford County in hopes of learning more about distant ancestors. Those visits were vital in tracing the various lines of Indian ancestry. Many relatives knew stories that had been passed down since the 1600s and had Family Bibles, old letters, and even manuscripts written many years ago about our families. Bill learned that he had descents from Chief Wahanganoche, alias Whipsewasson, son of Japasaw (Chief Passapatanzy); from the Indian girl, Ontonah, through the Curtis family; and from the Indian girl, Ka-Okee, through the Roberson and other families. He learned about various other lines of Indian blood in which the name of the Indian ancestor had been forgotten. There was enough information about Ontonah to figure out where she fit in on the family tree, but the Indian girl, Ka-Okee, remained a mystery. ::

: About three years ago [2006], Bill was determined to figure out exactly where Ka-Okee fit in our genealogy. He knew that she was claimed by the Roberson and Peyton families. When tracing back the ancestry of those two families, there only seemed to be one place where Ka-Okee would fit, as the mother of the ancestor, Christian (Pettus) Martin, who was known to have had much Indian blood. Then, everything else fell into place and fit like a glove. The Sullivan family, known to have had much Indian blood but who did not know the name of their Indian ancestor, also descended in several ways from Christian Martin. Ka-Okee was the name of the previously unknown Indian ancestor of the Sullivans! The later Newton family knew that they had the Indian blood through the marriage into the Monteith family, but there was Indian blood in the early Newton family which was unaccounted for. That mystery was now solved, as the early Newtons also descended from Christian Martin and her mother, Ka-Okee. The Jett family always claimed Indian blood, which was attested to by the late George Gordon, Commissioner of Revenue of Stafford, but from where did that come? It was also through their descent from Christian Martin and Ka-Okee! After putting together a multitude of descendants of Ka-Okee through her daughter, Christian Martin, an amazing thing happened. A book was published by Dr. Linwood Custalow and Angela Daniel about the true story of Pocahontas. The information was obtained from the sacred oral history of the Mattaponi Tribe. The Mattaponi Tribe has a special interest in Pocahontas, as many of them descend from the sister of Pocahontas, Matachanna, who went to England with Pocahontas and took care of Thomas Rolfe, the son of Pocahontas and John Rolfe. The book revealed that Pocahontas first married the Indian, Kocoum, the younger brother of Chief Japasaw, and had a child by him. William Strachey, Secretary of Virginia Colony, wrote that Pocahontas had first married the Indian, Kocoum, in 1610, but did not mention that she had a child by him, a fact that was probably kept secret by the Patawomecks for the safety of the child. The book by Custalow and Daniel calls the child “Little Kocoum,” but the time line near the end of the book states that they really do not know anything about the child from the sacred Mattaponi history, only that Pocahontas had a child by Kocoum and that the child was raised by the Patawomeck Tribe. The book states that the Newton family of Stafford County descends from the child of Pocahontas and Kocoum! Can you imagine the joy of the compiler to learn this after over 40 years of research. It was no wonder that he could not find a descent from Pocahontas and John Rolfe for his family. The descent was not from John Rolfe at all but was through Pocahontas’ first husband, Kocoum! The reason that the Mattaponi Tribe knew that the Newtons and other Stafford families descended from Pocahontas and Kocoum was due to the research of the late Mattaponi Chief, O. T. Custalow, who married Elizabeth Newton of Stafford. Chief Custalow researched the ancestry of his wife, Elizabeth Newton, long before the compiler was born and was able to talk to the elders at that time who knew how they descended from Pocahontas. Years later, when the compiler began his research, the elders at that time knew that Pocahontas was their ancestor but did not know how. ::

: After finding out about the descent from Pocahontas and Kocoum, the task began to figure out the exact lineage. This was not difficult because every family line which carried the knowledge of a descent from Pocahontas went back to the Martin family and the Indian girl, Ka-Okee. Since we know from a deposition that Ka-Okee’s daughter, Christian, was born about 1636 or 1637, it was not hard to figure out that Ka-Okee, herself, was the daughter of Pocahontas! That explained the fondness of the name of “Rebecca” by the descendants of the Martin family, as that was the Christian name of Pocahontas. The Peyton/Payton family claimed that their Indian ancestor was a daughter of Powhatan and even named a child as late as the 1800s as “Rebecca Martin” Peyton. She was obviously named after a child of John and Christian Martin. Bill, the compiler, believes that Rebecca was the oldest child of John and Christian Martin and was the first wife of Rev. John Waugh. Rev. Waugh’s descendants by his first wife carry the strong tradition of Indian blood. As was often done in the old days, Rev. Waugh later married another daughter of John and Christian Martin, namely their daughter, Christian, who had first been married to Evan Williams and was the ancestor by Williams of some of the families of Elkins, Grigsby, Redman, and Peyton. Rev. Waugh did not have any children by his last wife, Christian. Ka-Okee is believed to have married a member of the Pettis/Pettus family. The name of her daughter, Christian, was a favorite ancestral name of that family going back to their ancestor in England, Christan (Dethick) Pettus, and the descendants of Christian Martin continued to carry on that given name for many generations. Ka-Okee’s husband was likely a brother of Col. Thomas Pettus, who had a sister named “Christian” and owned land that adjoined that of Chief Wahanganoche which was the later home of Ka-Okee’s daughter, Christian. Col. Thomas Pettus did have a brother, Theodore, who came to Virginia in 1623 and was still in Virginia near the end of 1626, when he made a testimony in court. It is important to note that the famous Matoaka portrait of Pocahontas was found in England in a Pettus home! Col. Thomas Pettus’ uncle, William Pettus, married Elizabeth Rolfe, the daughter of John Rolfe’s own granduncle, Henry Rolfe! The compiler did not realize that such close connections between the Rolfe and Pettus families existed in England until he was compiling this article. John Rolfe took Pocahontas to his family estate in England when they visited there in 1616. She no doubt met the Pettus family and may have asked that if any of them went to Virginia to please check on her daughter, Ka-Okee. One evidently did check on her and married her. Since we do not have definite knowledge of the name of Mr. Pettis/Pettus, who married Ka-Okee, he could even have been been a son of William Pettus and Elizabeth Rolfe who were married in 1594. Col. Thomas Pettus brought his nephew, Thomas, son of his brother, William, to Virginia. Is it any wonder that Thomas Pettus’ grandson, Josias Fugate, married his own cousin, Mary Martin, a granddaughter of John Martin and Chistian Pettus and became the ancestor of the Sullivan family of Stafford? Christian Pettus, daughter of Ka-Okee, had a sister who married a Mr. Goldsby and is believed to have had a brother, Robert Pettis, who lived in the same area and had a daughter named Rebecca. Rebecca, daughter of Robert Pettis, was named in the will of Thomas Maddison as his godchild. Thomas Maddison is said to have been the son of Isaac Maddison, who lived for a while at the Patawomeck Village. Rebecca Pettis may have been the same Rebecca who was the first wife of John Meese, her cousin of Indian blood, and would explain why the later Mees/Mays family of Stafford County claimed a descent from Pocahontas. Ka-Okee may have had many other children who were the ancestors of Stafford families. The compiler believes that Chief Wahanganoche, himself, married a daughter of his relative, Ka-Okee, as will be explained. Many of our tribal members may not know their distant ancestry and would not be aware of their own descents from Pocahontas. It would probably help to mention here that some of the families who carry the traditional descent from Pocahontas and Kocoum are: Martin, Threlkeld, Porch, Sullivan, Fugate, Roberson, Curtis, Limbrick, Newton, Green, Butler, Courtney, Humphries, Brown, Jett, Peyton/Payton, Chilton, Burton, Hudson, Jones, Cox, Grigsby, Bates, Berry, Kitchen, Fines, Chinn, McGuire, Payne, Rollow, and many others. ::

: To explain why the compiler believes that Chief Wahanganoche married a daughter of his cousin, Ka-Okee, is a very important story that forms the very basis of our Patawomeck Tribe and its strong connection to the Pamunkey Indians. We need to go back to the family of Chief Powhatan, the supreme ruler of the Powhatan Federation. He was called Chief Powhatan because that was the name of the Federation. His real name was Wahunsunacock. We have a similar situation with out ancestor, Chief Japasaw, who was called Chief Passapatanzy because that was where he lived. The Great King of Patawomeck was often mentioned in the records as the brother of Japasaw, the Lesser Chief, but his actual name has never been determined. We could just similarly call him Chief Patawomeck or King Patawomeck. For years there has been controversy about the identity of Chief Powhatan’s father. Some of the early records state that he was the son of Nemattanon, alias Don Luis de Velasco, who was taken by the Spanish when he was young and returned many years later. I even stated this in some of my published books, but I now believe that he was not Powhatan’s father. The ages do not match well enough for him to have been a father of Powhatan, since Nemattanon was born about 1543, and Powhatan was born about 1545. Since Nemattanon held the same position as Powhatan, he could only have been the younger brother of Powhatan’s mother, through whom the “royal” bloodline flowed. Since the early Powhatans had a tradition of calling a maternal uncle as “father”, that would explain the confusion. This practice of kinship designation is explained in the dissertation of Dr. J. Frederick Fausz of William & Mary College in 1977. The Powhatans had a matrilineal society, in which the ruling bloodline always flowed through the women. Captain John Smith explained this as: “His [Powhatan’s] kingdome desendeth not to his sonnes nor children: but first to his brethren, whereof he hath 3 namely Opitchapan, Opechancanough, and Catataugh; and after their decease to his sisters. First to the eldest sister, then to the rest: and after them to the heires male and female of the eldest sister; but never to the heires of the males.” ::

: Even though this was the rule, there was a way of getting around it for the children of a male ruler to inherit the leadership of the Federation. Chief Richardson made the statement in Pocahontas Revealed that Chief Powhatan’s daughter, Pocahontas, was being groomed to become a future ruler. Your compiler, at first, thought that Pocahontas could never have become a future ruler because she was the daughter of a male ruler whose children could not inherit the rule. Then, he started to examine the circumstances and realized that Chief Richardson was right! Pocahontas certainly was being groomed for leadership, but why would that be if she could never inherit that position? Then, came the light! A child of any male ruler could indeed inherit the rule, if, and only if, their mother was of the royal bloodline! All of the male rulers knew this and appeared to have made it a common practice to marry their relatives who were in line to inherit the rule through their royal bloodline. That explained why Opechancanough married his own niece, Powhatan’s daughter, Cleopatra, sister of Pocahontas, because she too was of the royal bloodline. The head of the Federation was allowed to have as many wives as he wished, whereas the other chief of the tribes under his rule were only allowed to have a maximum of two wives. It was the common practice of the head of the Federation to take a wife and then send her away after she had given birth to her first child. The head of the Federation had one child by each wife and the wife was then free to go on with her life and marry someone else. The one exception to this practice was the “favorite” wife. There was at least one favorite wife who lived with the head of the Federation and bore him many children. She was his favorite because she was of the royal bloodline and the only way through which he could have children to inherit his rule. He would, therefore, have as many children by her as he could to create his legacy. Who, then, was the mother of Pocahontas and Cleopatra? It was the favorite wife of Chief Powhatan, Winganuske. She was known to have been his favorite wife and the mother of his then favorite daughter (Cleopatra), after Pocahontas had left his home to be married. We know the names of many of Powhatan’s wives and children by the testimony of Machumps, the brother of Winganuske. Winganuske had the royal bloodline through her mother, the eldest of the two sisters of Chief Powhatan. ::

: Now, we come to the connection to our Patawomeck Tribe. Our tribe was one of the subjects of Powhatan, as he stated in his own words, and a part of the Powhatan Federation. We also know this from the testimony of Henry Spelman, who lived for a number of years with Chief Japasaw. Because the Patawomeck Tribe was a part of the Federation, its rulers were appointed by the head of the Federation. Both the Great King Patawomeck and his brother, Japasaw, the Lesser King/Chief, were appointed to their positions by Chief Powhatan. In 1622, the Great King of Patawomeck was visited by Capt. John Smith. He told Capt. Smith that Opitchipam [next brother of the late Chief Powhatan, who died in 1618] was his brother. It was at this time that he also refused the gift of beads from Opechancanough, the next brother of Opitchipam, that were given to him to kill Capt. Rawleigh Croshaw and caused the break from the Powhatan Federation. This has long been a point of confusion for many including myself. The Great King of Patawomeck has often been stated, at this time, to have been Japasaw, not his older brother. This was not the case, however. The last apparent record of Japasaw was in 1619/1620, when he made a trip to Jamestown, as a representative of his brother, the Great King Patawomeck. As will be explained later, Japasaw may have died by the early spring of 1622, and it was the Great King Patawomeck, the older brother, who was still alive in the fall of 1622 and talked to Capt. John Smith. Your compiler was very glad that our wise Lesser Chief, Gary Cooke, pointed out in a recent Tribal Council meeting that Capt. Smith never talked to Japasaw, only his brother. Japasaw never became the Great King of Patawomeck. He appears to have been the Lesser Chief or King until his death. The sacred oral history of the Mattaponi, some of which has recently been published by Dr. Linwood Custalow and Angela Daniel, states that Japasaw was a very close friend of Chief Powhatan, but was not his brother. Therefore, if Japasaw was not the brother of Opitchipam and Powhatan, how could his own brother, the Great King of Patawomeck, have been their brother, per his own statement? He was not their brother by blood but was their brother by marriage to their eldest sister! He was the father of Powhatan’s favorite wife, Winganuske. ::

: When the Patawomecks broke away from the Powhatan Federation in 1622 and allied with the English, they no longer were subject to having their rulers appointed. They held to the system of the matrilineal society and used it internally in their own tribe, just as they had done long before they became a part of the Powhatan Federation and were allied with the Piscataway Tribe. As their bloodlines were then very much a part of the Powhatans, they continued that royal female bloodline. We know from the writings of Henry Spelman that Japasaw had two wives. One was named Paupauwiske, who had a baby son when Spelman was living with them. We do not know the name of the other wife, but we do know something of her identity. When Pocahontas was living with the Patawomecks at the time that she was captured by the English in 1613, Capt. Ralph Hamor wrote about her capture. In his narrative, he mentioned that Japasaw had been given a copper kettle and other items by [[Argall-31|Capt. Argall]] for delivering Pocahontas to them. Hamor made the statement about Japasaw “that doubtlesse he would have betrayed his owne father for them…” That tells us that Powhatan was not Japasaw’s own father. However, Hamor then states that “his [Japasaw’s] father had then eight of our English men, many swords, peeces, and other tooles, which he had at severall times by treacherous murdering of our men, taken from them…” The man who had eight of the Englishmen was none other than Chief Powhatan. That was the main reason for capturing Pocahontas, to use her as a bribe to get the eight Englishmen back safely from Powhatan. If Powhatan was not “Japasaw’s own father” by Hamor’s own words, then why did Hamor then call Powhatan the father of Japasaw? It was because Powhatan was Japasaw’s father-in-law by having married one of his daughters, a sister of Pocahontas. By marrying one of Winganuske’s daughters, Japasaw was seeing to it that one of his own children might have a chance of becoming the ruler of the Federation. His son by a daughter of Powhatan did indeed become the Great King of Patawomeck after the Patawomeck Tribe had broken away from the Federation. The only way that could have happened was for Wahanganoche’s mother to have been of the royal bloodline. It was possible for the son of a Lesser Chief to take over his father’s position, even without being of the royal bloodline, but to become the supreme chief, a son of a male ruler must have had the royal bloodline through his mother. This close connection of Japasaw and Pocahontas, along with the fact that Pocahontas married Japasaw’s younger brother, Kocoum, was the reason that Pocahontas was living with the Patawomecks at the time of her capture. Japasaw was the granduncle and the double brother-in-law of Pocahontas. The fact that the Indians married their nieces in order to give their children a chance to rule may seem like incest to us now, but it was perfectly acceptable to them. Many of the great civilizations of the world carried on the same practice. It was even acceptable for a man to marry his half-sister, as long as she did not have the same mother. This was a practice of the great civilization of Egypt, as well as the Hawaiians. I must mention here that our Biblical ancestor, Abraham, even married his own half-sister, Sarah! ::

: As mentioned above, the compiler believes that the Lesser King of Patawomeck, Japasaw, died in or by the early spring of 1622. When Pocahontas and John Rolfe visited England in 1616, Pocahontas took a number of her relatives and friends with her. The records of the Virginia Company reveal that two of these Indians were daughters of “no lesse than petie kinges.” Their names were Mary and Elizabeth. In 1621, the Virginia Company sent them to the Somers Islands [Bermuda]. One died during the voyage, but the other, thought to have been the one named “Elizabeth,” was married there in the early spring of 1622 to a well-to-do Englishman at the home of Governor Nathaniel Butler, the ancestral uncle of many of the Butlers of Stafford County. Governor Butler encouraged the Indian maiden to write a letter to her brother in Virginia, who, by her father’s late death, had succeeded to his command. If her father was a Lesser King/Chief, and she was a relative of Pocahontas, who had close ties of kinship to the Patawomeck Tribe, it is very likely that he was Japasaw, Lesser King/Chief of the Patawomecks. Her brother would have been none other than our ancestor, Wahanganoche, who would have succeeded his father as Lesser Chief. As the Great King of Patawomeck was still alive, Wahanganoche would not have inherited that position until after his death, which likely occurred on 22 May 1623 at the famous Poison Plot, in which Dr. John Pott prepared a poison punch that killed over 200 Indians at Patawomeck, including many chiefs. Wahanganoche is believed to have also been the young King of Patawomeck when Father Andrew White visited in March of 1634. Since he was still under age at that time, he had a guardian named Archihu, who was his uncle. Since Archihu had not inherited the kingship, he was evidently an uncle by marriage to a deceased sister of Wahanganoche’s mother of the royal blood. Wahanganoche was still probably a boy in his late teens by 1634 but would soon take over sole responsibility of the Patawomeck Tribe as an adult king. There were probably several others who would have been in line for the position of the Great King at the time he inherited it, but it is likely that most of the adults died from Dr. Pott’s poison punch. ::

: Now, we will go back to the reason for all of this background information. It was to show why the compiler believes that Wahanganoche, King of Patawomeck, married a daughter of his cousin, Ka-Okee, child of Pocahnotas. It was the same practice that his ancestors had carried on for generations before him. By marrying a daughter of Ka-Okee, he would have given his children the matrilineal royal bloodline that had passed down through Powhatan’s eldest sister and the Great King of Patawomeck. At that time, Wahanganoche was very limited at possibilities for a wife to carry on this ancestral tradition. There were probably not many women of the royal bloodline to chose from. Not only were the daughters of Ka-Okee prime candidates, they lived on adjoining property to him. Because Ka-Okee’s daughter would have been half English with very prestigious ancestry on her father side of the Pettis/Pettus family, it is no wonder why Chief Wahanganoche was able to marry so many of his daughters to English colonists of such high social status. ::

However, although born in France, the area that David and Daniel came from didn't speak French -- so "Pool" or "Poole" may be just as close to the actual name as "Poule". (note the language in Languedoc in southern France spoken by the Poole's and other natives of Languedoc was actually not "French" but a distinct Language called "Occitan" called "d'oc" by its native speakers. it is a Latin based language that dates from Roman times. --the actual name as spoken by the family would not be French surname Poule -- my guess is that Poule is an approximation of the original Occitan name. Both the culture and language of Languedoc was very different from the rest of France). A few references (e.g. Encycylpedia of Virginia Biography Vol 1) use the spelling "Pole" but this spelling is rarely seen in original documents; with rare exceptions, the spelling "Poole" is used in the early Virginia records. Some have advanced the speculation that our "Poole" family from Languedoc may have been so-called because they produced the high alcohol wine called Picapoll / Piquepoul/ Piquepoule, A wikipedia reference notes" picat or picada are adjectives meaning chopped. Then look at poll which could mean flea or louse. It seems like were no further in breaking this down from French except for one thing in that in Catalan pell means skin. Its very believable that pell would become poll over centuries of use by peasants and so you actually have a name that means chopped skin which when you look at the grape is exactly what you see and you originally have picadapell for the original name. It all makes a great deal more sense than a stinging hen or well, whatever you get from the French name." David Poole is documented to have been born in Languedoc France. The date is not documented, but is estimated to be 1585 to 1600. To be recognized as a expert wine maker, he must have been in his 30's in 1620. He would not have likley been much older than that because of physical hardship and active threat of the native Indian population (it was a hard and dangerous time). David Poule Poole and his relative Daniel are likely the first of our DNA G Haplogroup Pool / Poole line to immigrate to America . Arriving in about 1720 , David was one of the first Poole surname persons to arrive in the American colonies. Daniel Poole (believed to have been a brother or close cousin) immigrated at about the same time. David was among seven wine experts that were brought to the Colony of Virginia with the aim to develop a wine industry in America that could rival France. They were to teach the colonists " how to plant trees and grape vines, raise silkworms, and make wine." Because the Huguenots were being persecuted in France, large numbers had fled to England and America. It is likley that the Brittish had their pick from a large group of higlhy qualified expert wine makers, and David Poole was recognized as a master in his trade. By most accounts, the treatment of the French wine masters was poor. Culturally different, with their own Huguenot Religion and Occitan Language, they were treated much like indentured servants certainly not the status / treatment they expected.; certainly not the status / treatment they expected.The wine venture in Virginia was a failure. Likely the combination of grape diseases, insects, and lack of understanding and support by the Virginia colonists led to failure of the wine venture. By 1632, it was clear that excellent money was to be made in tobacco, and not in wine. The Virginia General Assembly was angered by the French wine masters switching to tobacco and pass a law "inbibiting them from so doing on penalty of forfeiting their leases and havng to qauit the colongy."( History of Hampton and Eliz City County, by L G Tyler published 1922;). Ultimately hard economics won out and Buck Roe became a commercial tobacco venture. The same reference qyotes Smollet as writting , " by the export of tobacco from the Chesapeake, the credithy of the colonies was chiefly, if not wholly supported". By 1647, we see that David Poole is no longer leasing the land at Buck Roe (see notes below). My guess is that by that time, he had made money from tobacco and was doing well. Well enough, apparently, to be able to afford to go back to Europe for at least a brief time, and returned with wife Mary, daughter Jane, and son Martin in 1752. There are subsequent deed documents for Jane and Martin, but ultimately I lose track of them. John Pool, their eldest son remains well documented as well as his children. After returning, we see that only Mary signed one legal document in 1755; which may mean that David was ill or dead by this time. I have followed others in estimating 1760 as reasonable date for David's death. ================== SOME NOTES / DOCUMENTS / DISCUSSION I consider the relationship between David Poole, his wife and children to be fully documented. The population of Elizabeth City in 1625 was only 359 persons, so the risk of confusing our line with the other Poole persons living in the area is minimal The original French family name may have been POULE according to the respected text, A History of Wine in America. Although born in France, the area that David and Daniel came from didn't speak French -- so "Pool" or "Poole" may be just as close to the actual name as "Poule". (note the language in Languedoc in southern France spoken by the Pooles and other natives of Languedoc was actually not "French" but a distinct Language called "Occitan" called "d'oc" by it's native speakers. it is a Latin based language that dates from the 10th century. --the actual name as spoken by the family would not be be French surname Poule -- my guess is that Poule is an approximation of the original Occitian name. Both the culture and language of Languedoc was very different from the rest of France). David was among seven wine experts that were brought to the Colony of Virginia with the aim to develop a wine industry in America that could rival France. Because the Huguenots were being persecuted in France, large numbers fled to England and America By most accounts,the treatment of the French wine masters was poor.

In the 1630s Nicholas James, John Broche, William Savary, Nicholas Martiau, Giles Tavernor, John Vallet, and John Galliott settled in what is now York County. Also at that time, many French names appear in the upper County of New Norfolk. More French settlers came over the next three decades, settling in Lower Norfolk, Princess Ann and Isle of Wight Counties. [from Huguenot Lineage Research, Melford S.

I recommend reading the actual chapters (available on line) from "A History of Wine in America" From "A History of Wine in America" by Thomas Pinney, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA PRESS, © 1989 The Regents of the University Below, I have extracted some discussion that relates to what I believe is our line of Pool / Poole: eight vignerons sent to Virginia in 1619, Frenchmen from Languedoc-Elias La Garde, David Poule, Jacques Bonnall are among the names preserved of this group We know also that they were settled at Kecoughton, Elizabeth City County, near the coast and therefore relatively secure from Indian attack.[44] This region had been recommended as early as 1611 by Sir Thomas Dale, who observed that the two or three thousand acres of clear ground there would do for vineyards and that "vines grow naturally there, in great abundance."[45] Indeed, the suitability of the region had been remarked even earlier, in 1572, by the Jesuit Father Juan de la Carrera. Carrera, with what his editors describe as "typical pious exaggeration," wrote that the Spanish found at Kecoughton (which he called "the Bay of the Mother of God") "a very beautiful vineyard, as well laid out and ordered as the vineyards of Spain. It was located on sandy soil and the vines were laden with fine white grapes, large and ripe. and from page 16 we see suggestion that he arrived late in 1619: The official company statement says that the French vignerons went out in 1619, but they must have arrived too late to do any planting that year-indeed, a letter from Virginia as late as January 1620 pleads for both vines and vignerons from Europe, a fact that suggests the company was slower to carry out its claims than to publicize them and from page 17: The sequel to all this preparation was disappointment. How could it have been anything else, given the practical difficulties? A little wine was made from native grapes, but it proved unsatisfactory. And the failure to make anything out of wine-growing in the face of a prosperous tobacco industry soon led men to give up a losing game. Besides that, the get-rich-quick mentality that dominated in early Virginia... Emigration, some sources give 1619 as the year of emigration, we know he was in VA initially by 1620, and we know he was leasing land in 1627 here is an emigration record for 1627 Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1500s-1900s David Poole / Poule was a Huguenot according to the "Huguenot Society" Early Huguenots in Virginia Huguenots came to Virginia as early as 1620, when Elias La Guard, James Bonnall and David Poole settled in Elizabeth City.

They had not been sucessful and the vineyard land was open for planting. They found that tobacco was to be their money cropl Peter Arundell dided and John Arundell went to live with William and Joane from the muster of 1624.

From Page 12 … Supported by an orthodox economic argument. In order to obtain such products as silk, wine, and olive oil, England had to pay cash to Spain and France, its rivals and enemies. One of the persistent objects of early English colonization was therefore to provide England herself with silk, wine, oil, and other such commodities. From page 14 Lord De La Warr (governor of Virginia) seems to have taken some French vine dressers with him on his voyage to Virginia in 1610, though the information is tantalizing indistinct - and therefore not wholly reliable. True Declaration of the Estate of the Colony in Virginia (1610) a tract written to raise fresh fund for th3e company after the disastrous starving time in the winter of 1609-10, we hear of Frenchmen with Lord De La Warr preparing to plant vines Page 16 Despite the companys advertisements and the governors plea for skilled vinearoones, one seems to have ventured forth until a long eight years later 41 There were, as we know, eight vignerons sent to Virginia in 1619, Frenchmen from Languedoc - Elias La Garde, David Poule, Jacquest Bonnall, are among the names preserved of this group. We know also that they were settled at Keccoughton , Elizabeth City County, near the coast and therefore relatively secure from Indian attack. 45 The official company statement say that the French Vignerons went out in 1619 but they must have arrive too late to do any planting that year - Indeed, a letter from Virginia as late as January 1620 pleads for both vines and vignerons from Europe, a fact that suggests the company was slower to carry out its claims than to publicize them…. … Just when the Frenchmen planted their vines is not clear. In 1620 the company, encouraged by the early reports, announced that it was looking for more vineyardists from France and from Germany, and that it was trying to procure plants of the best kinds from France, Germany, and elsewhere 50 Note that Sandys and his elder brother were proponents of industrialization of the colony. Glassworks, ironworks, shipbuilding were among the industries proposed. ============== Some Notes on early ECC History, abstracted from LG Tylers 1922 "History of Hampton AND Elizabeth City County, VA" ....April 26, 1607 ....Upon the invitation of some friendly Indians to come ashore to their town called by them Kecoughtan, Captain John Smith says: ''Wee coasted to their town running over a river running into the main where these savages swam over with their bowes and arrows in their mouths." "Kecoughtan," continues the doughty Captain, "has a convenient harbor for fisheries, boats or small boats, that so conveniently turneth itself into Bayes and Creeks that make that place very pleasant to inhabit, their corn- fields being girded thereon as peninsulars. " " The abound- ance of fish, fowls, and deer" was noted The name Kecoughtan does not appear regularly in legal documents from 1619. The new name, Elizabeth City, was called after the daughter of King James I. The cor- poration of Elizabeth City developed into Elizabeth City County in 1634. In 1705 the town of Hampton was founded by an act of the Legislature. The year 1619 saw great changes made in the govern- ment of Virginia. Hitherto the settlers were only soldiers and martial law prevailed. Now the free laws of England were proclaimed, and to every man was assigned a certain area of land. On July 30, a general assembly met at James- town, In 1620, the company sent some Frenchmen to Buck Roe to teach the colonists how to plant mulberry trees and grape vines, raise silkworms, and make wine. They were selected by John Bonnell, silkworm raiser to the King at Oakland, from Languedock in France, and among them were Anthony Bonneir, Elias La Guard', James Bonnell, Peter Arundell and David Poole. ' March 22, 1622 occurred the massacre at which time 346 settlers out of a total of 1240 were slaughtered; As a result of the massacre, the Indians were driven far away from the settlements, Population Growth(extracted from various parts of document) In February 1624, a census was taken of the inhabitants of the colony according to which it appeared that Eliz- abeth City Corporation had a population of 349 The number of tithables in Elizabeth City County, in 1748, was 1078, which was more than double what it was at the close of the preceding century. In 1759, the number was 1428, which showed a population of 4284. At the time of the American Revolution the population of Hampton was probably about one thousand people. Unsuccessful at wine making in Virginia, the French turn to tobacco In 1632, the French vignerons at Buck Roe incurred the resentment of the general assembly by dropping into tobacco raising, and a law was passed inhibiting them from so doing on penalty of forfeiting their leases and having to quit the colony. Hurricane of 1749 In 1749, a hurricane, which has been described as most terrific and disastrous, visited Virginia David Poole is believed to be Y Haplogroup G1. Which possibly dates to about 10,000 years ago. Haplogroup G is associated with the Neolitic revolution, where farming and civilization were "invented". Dr John Hawks, of the Universityh of Wisconsin - Madison makes several interesting points that may relate to our pre-historic ancestors, and the Neolothic Revolution which they helped create. Many Pool people are blue eyed. This is a trait that dates back only around 10,000 years. Development of agriculture has "sped" human evolution. Changes since the invention of farming include 1. Thinning of human skull - same amount of brain in less total volume 2. Smaller teeth (prepared food requires less grinding of teeth) 3. Changes in genes to help prevent new diseases that began when larger groups of people began living together. 4. Human caused extinction of many species of large animals. 5. Changes in other species caused by planned breeding by humans ( e.g. dogs, cattle, horses, etc) 6. Changes in plants (e.g. corn and grain) caused by selective breeding by humans. the original spelling of David Poole's name is unknown. "A History of Wine in America" uses "Poule" (which is French , not Occitian or English). Col. Roy Poole has suggested "Pujol" ---------------------------------------------------------- The following Pool / Poole families have descendants that have tested as Y haplogroup "G" and are believed to belong to this line:YSEARCH.ORG and FAMILYTREEDNA.COM DAVID POULE POOLE WIKITREE PROFILE: POOLE-1787... born Languedoc France, abt 1590 George Pool, c1730s,Wake/JohnstonCos.,NC WmMitchell POOL Wikitr profile Pool-_____ WmMitchell POOL(1840 Franklin,ARK/1904) m E.

Accepting that advice , I will start this family history with our most ancient ancestors. With the very large number of Y DNA samples that have been analyzed throughout the world; the major patterns of human migration now seem to be well established. We can expect ever better definition of this as data from an ever increasing number of samples is made and analyzed. ISOGG , the International Society of Genetic Genealogy , and the National Geographic's "Geographic Project" are at the forefront of the effort to collect and analyze chromosome data, and learn about the various peoples of the world. Included in this work is analysis of the migration of different "families" of man, and where and when various new genetic types emerged. The map below is from National Geographic’s Genographic Project and shows the early migration of "Eurasian Adam" out of Africa some 31, 000 to 79,000 years ago. Please note: Genetic Genealogy is a new science. It is evolving rapidly, please consult the current ISOGG tree for revised information. Our Pool Y chromosome is type "G". Y chromosomes are passed unchanged (except for occasional small mutations) from father to all sons. We are a rare G1a subclade within the already rare haplogroup G. There are very few of us. The highest concentrations of G1 in the world today, occurs in Iran. Most scientists believe that Iran is the likely origin of our G1 subclade. According to the current (2015) ISOGG tree we are G (F2885) or G1a1c; this sub clade (to date) belongs exclusively to our line of Poole / Pool {{Image|file=Our_Poule_Poole_Pool_Family_History.png |caption=Haplogroup G concentratons in Asia and Europe }} POOL PRE-HISTORY AND HISTORY (46,000 years)– SHOWN AS 1 YEAR WINTER YEARS AGO January FIRST “G” PEOPLE Jan 1 46,000 YEARS AGO February March SPRING EVENT DATE DATE April May June SUMMER EVENT DATE DATE July August September FALL EVENT DATE DATE October NEOLITHIC REVOLUTION – LIVING IN THE FERTILE CRESENT DATE 10,000 YEARS AGO November WE WERE “THE EUROPEANS” NOV 6 - 20 7,000 YEARS AGO Most of our ancestors were Pushed out of Europe , But a few remained NOV 20 5,000 YEARS AGO December WE WERE FRENCH DEC 26 500 YEARS AGO WE CAME TO AMERICA DEC 28 390 YEARS AGO WE CAME TO SC DEC 29 230 YEARS AGO TIME OF DAY FOR RECENT EVENTS 01:00 (1 am) Wm Henry Pool moves to Greenville DEC 31 23 hours ago 02:20-05:30 Children of Wm Henry and Lula were born DEC 31 19 hours ago 09:00 – 11:30 Grandchildren of Wm Henry Pool were born DEC 31 ½ hour ago 23:49 ( 11: 49 pm) MOST RECENT GREAT – GREAT GRANDCHILDREN Last minute 1.1 Pseudo History: Family Myths and Legends Someone in virtually every Pool family discovers this story and claims it. Although it is a " myth", the historical characters are very real, and it makes a fun "tall strory". Blessed Margaret Pole Geoffrey “the Handsome”  My aunt, Marie Clarke Pool was aware of this “Royal” story and may have actually believed it. The thought that the Pool’s descend from “Royal blood” is such a popular idea that virtually every line of Pool / Poole has someone that strongly claims it. Sir Geoffrey Pole and son Sir Richard Pole married Margaret Plantagenet . Margaret was a possible claim to the English throne. As the story is told (at least some of it is likely true) is that there was hostility between the Tutors and the Plantagenet's because both made claims to the English throne. Lady Margaret , countess of Salisbury asserted a claim to the throne. Her son Reginald , Archbishop of Canterbury wrote against the Kings’ divorce. King Henry, with at least two reasons not to like the Plantagenet's swore to wipe them out --- and for the most part, he did. Lady Margaret was imprisoned and ultimately executed. The youngest son (this part may just be lore) of Sir Geoffrey Pole fled to Wales and hid. In 1671 (a time after our David Poole had immigrated to Virginia) a Jeffrey Poole is listed in the Wales tax census, living in the same area that the Pole originally came from. This Poole had two fireplaces and is, therefore assumed to be relatively wealthy in the standards of the day. As the story goes, descendants / relatives of this Jeffrey Poole came to the colonies in the late 1600’s early 1700’s and are our earliest Poole / Pool ancestors in America. See the next chapter for the "real" story.   1.2 Our Earliest Pool History : LANGUEDOC FRANCE In this section, we progress from the “myth” finally to provable history. CAVEAT EMPTOR: I think the totality of the evidence that our "James Pool" descends from David Poole of Elizabeth City County VA, is convincing; however, as careful as we have tried to be, records can be misconstrued, although I consider the Poole lineage "documented ", it is significantly less certain than the history after "James Poole" where we have Bible and other family information to confirm what we find in the historical records. Information / data should not be considered as "certain" until we get to James Pool (born Mecklenburg in 1756). In order to be as "transparent" and accurate as possible, I have: • Attached a complete list of reference sources . • Provided notes and "warnings / cautionary words" like "possible / probable / speculative where I consider the research "soft". In this section, I have attempted to provide a little background on our family before they came to America. We have no detailed documentation, and have not even been able to link out family back to their French (actually Occitian) original surname. What we know about out French Pool ancestors • The original surname is unknown, it might have been "Poule" or something that sounded like "Poole" • They were highly skilled wine masters from Languedoc France, hand-picked for an attempt to introduce a wine industry in America that might Rival France. • They were people of high principle, as evidenced by the fact that they were French Huguenots, at a time when holding such view endangered their very lives. • They were Occitan in terms of Language and Culture - very different from "traditional French". • They were smart and hard working. below I have inserted a diagram of the "Huguenot Cross" and a map showing the Occitania area, between Spain, Italy, and France. \ Background Information: Occitian Culture David and Daniel were French Huguenots. In some ways calling them "French" may be misleading. The language and culture of Languedoc was very distinct from that of France. Their language was Occitan not French. Although an estimated 2 million people still speak Occitan, it is considered an "endangered language". It was the original language that the Troubadours lyrics, and even today, some learn the language to sing the historic music. The names David, and Martin were written the same in Occitan as English. However, if on-line translators are correct, there is no word like "POOLE" or POULE" in Occitan... I have seen no scholar propose what our actual surname looked or sounded like in Occitan. However, early American immigrants tended to have names that "sounded similar", so my guess is that Poule or Poole "sounded" to an English or French ear, something like "Poole". Who were the "Huguenots"? . Historically, "Huguenots" were French Protestants inspired by the 1530 writings of John Calvin. At the peak, there were about two million Huguenots. The population was concentrated in southern and central France, including the Languedoc region of southern France, which is where we believe our "Pool" ancestors lived. Catholic hostility against the Protestants grew, in spite of concessions and edicts of toleration from the French crown ( most notably the Edict of Nantes) Religious persecutions increased, and ultimately the Edict of Nantes was revoked by the Edict of Fountainbleau which pressured many Huguenots to convert. While nearly 75% eventually submitted, roughly 500,000 Huguenots fled France for various Protestant European nations and to overseas colonies. Our own Pool line went to England and from there to America. More than 10% ( 50,000 to 80,000) French Huguenot refugees settled in England, mostly either in the East End of London in the Spitfields , or in Soho in West London, in the 1680's, after the aforementioned Edict of Nantes was revoked. We have not (yet) been able to search enough Parish registers to see if our Poole family is listed in any of these London French Huguenot Churches. { In the limited Parish Records we have seen, the potentially related surname "Paul" is seen but, the name "Poule" is seen once, but the peroson was not in the silk trade, and we have not yet found the name "Poole"}. David Poole was sent to demonstrate wine making and silk production in VA; since most of the silk experts lived in the Spitfields it is likely that he was living in that area. Early Wine Press (drawing of wine press to be inserted) Languedoc and Wine Production: Since the Poole family was brought to America because of their wine (wine and silk expertise possibly) expertise, a short background on Languedoc and wine production is included here. Languedoc was a major producer of wine at the time (1600) that the French Huguenot Poole family fled France (the original family name unknown, but may have been Poule). With an estimated 500,000 Huguenots leaving, England would have had a wide choice of "wine masters" to use to help establish a wine industry in Virginia; so it is assumed that the six families chosen to bring to Virginia were acknowledged experts. Languedoc was a major producer of finest wines at the time the our first Poole families came to America. It continues today as the largest wine producing region in the world ; however, the quality of the wine is no longer considered to be superior. According to a 2009 report, the Languedoc- Roussillon region of France produces some 3 billion bottles of wine annually. Virtually every significant type of wine is produced in this region. The history of wine in Languedoc is ancient. The Greeks were recorded to be planting grapes in this area as early as 500 BC. In these early days, Languedoc earned the reputation for the best quality of wine. The early Burgundy and Bordeaux were made here. Since the surname "Poule" is listed by some as the original Poole name in Languedoc, it is interesting to note that one of the wines produced in David Poole's time was "Pique de Poule". According to one history, the appellation "Languedoc" remained "impressively high quality" until the time of the industrial revolution, when production began to exceed demand. A phylloxera epidemic killed off the high quality grapes and the grapes stock brought in from America did not do as well as they did in other regions of France. Even today, there is no good defense against phylloxera; the diseased grapes must be isolated and killed. 2.0 Our Poole Family in Europe This section is reserved for genealogical information about our Poole family in Europe. This is a story yet to be discovered. So far, we have had complete failure in finding records of our family in Europe. This section is left blank in the hope that as more and more people get DNA tested, and as more and more historical records become digitalized and become searchable; we will be able to discover our Poole ancestors in Europe. I will repeat the little that we know we know ("or think we know") about out French "Poole /Poule" ancestors • The original surname is unknown, it might have been "Poule" or something that sounded like "Poole" (Col. Roy Poole has suggested • They were highly skilled wine masters from Languedoc France, hand-picked for an attempt to introduce a wine industry in America that might Rival France. • They were people of high principle, as evidenced by the fact that they were French Huguenots, at a time when holding such view endangered their very lives. • They were Occitan in terms of Language and Culture - very different from "traditional French". • They were smart and hard working Our Poole Name in Europe, almost certainly "transformed" to an English sounding name: We do not know what our original name was in Europe. See the section on David Poole for additional information and speculation. In this brief section, we provide a little historical background on how Huguenot names were generally transformed by the English to "English sounding" names. "The Romance of Names" by Ernest Weekeley (Trinity College, 1922) contains some generalized discussion on what happened to French Huguenot names as they immigrated to England. " THE HUGUENOTS (from The Romance of Names, Project Gutenburg) The great mass of those names of French or Flemish origin which do not date back to the Conquest or to medieval times are due to the immigration of Protestant refugees in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. It is true that many names for which Huguenot ancestry is claimed were known in England long before the Reformation. ... The fact is that there was all through the Middle Ages a steady immigration of foreigners, whether artisans, tradesmen, or adventurers, some of whose names naturally reappear among the Huguenots. .... Like the Huguenots later on, they were protected by the State and persecuted by the populace, who resented their habits of industry and sobriety. During the whole period of the religious troubles in France and Flanders, starting from the middle of the sixteenth century, refugees were reaching this country in a steady stream; but after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes (1685) they arrived in thousands, and the task of providing for them and helping on their absorption into the population became a serious problem. Among the better class of these immigrants was to be found the flower of French intellect and enterprise,.. ...the majority of the immigrants were of the artisan class and illiterate. This explains the extraordinary disappearance, in the course of two centuries, of the thousands of French names which were introduced between 1550 and 1700. We have many official lists of these foreigners, and in these lists we catch the foreign name in the very act of transforming itself into English. This happens sometimes by translation, e.g. Poulain became Colt, Poisson was reincarnated as Fish, and a refugee bearing the somewhat uncommon name Petitoeil transformed himself into Little-eye, which became in a few generations Lidley. But comparatively few surnames were susceptible of such simple treatment, and in the great majority of cases the name underwent a more or less arbitrary perversion which gave it a more English physiognomy. Especially interesting from this point of view is the list of— "Straungers residing and dwellinge within the city of London and the liberties thereof," drawn up in 1618. The names were probably taken down by the officials of the different wards, who, differing themselves in intelligence and orthography, produced very curious results. As a rule the Christian name is translated, while the surname is either assimilated to some English form or perverted according to the taste and fancy of the individual constable. 3.0 Our First Five Generations in America : This section represents family we know only from historical documents like Wills, Deeds, Church Documents, Court Documents, and occasional mention in history books. Although this work represents years of work by a number of capable researchers, it is, of necessity, less certain than the information in the next section, where, at least in the case of our direct ancestors, we have internal family records, and rich family stories. Although this section is intended for descendants of Alexander Pool (Jr.) who died intestate in Mecklinburg VA in 1767, portions will apply to all Y haplogroup G Poole /Pool families in America since the present indication is that most if not all of this Pool line share the first generations: David Poole, John Poole, and Thomas Pool. for reference, as of May 2016 the following lines have near identical Y chromosome DNA markers , the following table shows the DNA Matches for William Thomas Pool, Jr, and the number of mutations at various Y DNA marker test levels ( 12, 25, 37, 67). Note that G-F2885 is the more current SNP nomenclature and is a more defined variant of the G M201 shown on the earlier tests. 2016 ISOGG nomenclature for this Y subclade is G1a3 and Poole / Pool''' Descendants of David Pool (born c 1590 Languedoc France) are the only known examples of this extremely rare sub clade.'''''Italic text'' ---------------------------------------------------- === DNA Matches for haplogroup G1a3 === (currently only Poole /Pool descendants of David Pool) updated 5/2016 wtpool '''YDNA Haplogroup''' Number of mutations at marker levels Name Haplogroup Y-DNA12 Y-DNA25 Y-DNA37 Y-DNA67 Mark William Poole G-M201 0 Ray Winfred Pool G-M201 0 1 1 Howard Gary Dean Poole Y-DNA37 G-M201 G-M201 0 0 0 Robert Lee Poole G-M201 0 0 0 Samuel Theodore Pool G-M201 0 0 2 Thomas Glen Pool G-M201 0 0 2 Roy Allen Poole G-M201 0 0 0 1 Mr. Samuel Bret Benton G-M201 0 1 1 1 Mr. Samuel Morris Benton G M201 or G F2885 0 1 1 Thomas Glen Pool G-M201 0 Mr. Cleave Pool G-M201 0 0 1 Kenneth Johnson G-M201 0 0 0 Robert Slavens G-M201 0 0 0 Below: Elizabeth City County VA We have a near perfect DNA match with several Pool / Poole lines which seem to "vector" back to a group of Elizabeth City VA line of Poole. Audrey Pool, (probably the best genealogist to have studied this line), believed that our joint line descended from these "ECC" Poole's, however she was not convinced that there was enough evidence to prove it. (Work by a number of genealogist done before DNA testing was available had made errors in linking our Pool line and created confusion that made it more difficult to develop valid fully documented tree.) Some brief credits: There are far too many people who have made outstanding contributions to this research to list here. I note the following of being of particular help: Belva Cauthen , Harris researcher; Bill Avery and Donna Cuzze, Avera researchers; Joe Slattery, Audrey Pool, George Pool, Roy Pool, Barbara Pool, Dianne Pool Fowler, "Pumpkin" Pool ,and James Evans, Pool / Poole researchers ; too many Hudson researchers to list here, to which I add my own work. We have a near perfect match with a line of Pool’s that lived in Elizabeth City Virginia. Genetic match calculations from familytreedna state that there is a 98% probability that our common grandfather is not more than 10 generations or distant. I believe that I have successfully traced this line back 11 generations – so there is over 98% probability that our connection lines within this time frame. A final point, documented families affiliated provide additional strong evidence of connection. ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE OF LINK OF THIS LINE TO THE DAVID POOLE LINE OF VA, many of whom migrated to Wake and Johnston NC There are close family connections in the David Poole line which we still see later in the Alexander Pool, Jr descendants line. Bagwell is one example. Alonzo Pool died in Wake in the home of a Bagwell (1905), Wm H Pool II first business partner in Greenville SC was a Bagwell and the company was called Pool and Bagwell. Mitchell is another name that links both lines and DNA "cousins" (identical or nearly identical Y chromosome matches). There are marriages, and many examples of Mitchell being used as a given name. Noted genealogist Audrey Pool notes that the Whitfield link convinces her that her John Pool is descended from Thomas Pool. {WTP note, I also believe that Thomas Pool is the likely common grandfather for several of the "Y Haplogroup G" Poole / Pool families.} There are Avera / Avery links to Poole / Pool in ECC, NC, and Brunswick VA. (After John Poole died, his widow , Jane, married Henry Avera (also a widow); their blended family was very close. They migrated together and made frequent use of each other's given names. . With these strong caveats in place, here is my best current thinking on our James Pool’s Ancestors: • Alexander Pool – father • Alexander Poole.– grandfather • Thomas Poole - great grandfather • John Poole, Sr. – gg grandfather David Poule / Poole ggg grandfather MAJOR "POOLE / POOL" FAMILY MIGRATIONS 3.1 Family Group Sheet for David Poole Husband: David Poule Poole Birth: Bet. 1585–1600 in Languedoc France... Marriage: Abt. 1625 Death: Abt. 1660 in Elizabeth City County VA Father: father of David and Daniel Poole Mother: Wife: Mary maiden name unknown Birth: Abt. 1600 in Languedoc France Death: Abt. 1670 in Elizabeth City Co VA Father: Mother: Children: 1 Name: John Poole Sr. M Birth: Abt. 1630 in Languedoc France, or VA, or England; immigrated, not shown as an "alien" so England is likely Marriage: Abt. 1655 in Elizabeth City Co VA Death: Abt. 1667 in Elizabeth City Co VA; Will recorded March 16, 1667 Spouse: Jane Poole Avera Boult? 2 Name: Jane Poole F Birth: Abt. 1635 in Languedoc France or England; immigrated, not shown as an "alien" so England is likely? 3 Name: Martin Poole M Birth: Abt. 1635 in Languedoc France or VA or England; immigrated, not shown as an "alien" so England is likely? Notes: David Poule Poole David Poule Poole and his relative Daniel are likely the first of our related Pool / Poole line to immigrate to America . In fact, according to Poole researcher Joe Slattery, he may have been the first Poole / Pool from any line to arrive in America ! In addition, according to the Virginia Huguenot Society, he was the first French Huguenot to arrive in VA ! Arriving in about 1720 , David was clearly among the first very first Poole surname persons to arrive in the American colonies. Daniel Poole (believed to have been a brother or close cousin) immigrated at about the same time (probably slightly later). David was among seven wine and silk experts that were brought to the Colony of Virginia with the aim to develop a wine industry in America that could rival France. Because the Huguenots were being persecuted in France, large numbers fled to England and America. I expect that the British could have picked from a large group of expert wine makers, and David Poole was recognized as a master in his trade. The original French family name may have been POULE according to the respected text, "A History of Wine in America" (Vol. 1). However, although born in France, the area that David and Daniel came from didn't speak French -- so "Pool" or "Poole" may be just as close to the actual name as "Poule". (note the language in Languedoc in southern France spoken by the Poole's and other natives of Languedoc was actually not "French" but a distinct Language called "Occitan" called "d'oc" by its native speakers. It is a Latin based language that dates at least from the 10th century. --the actual name as spoken by the family would not be French surname Poule -- my guess is that Poule is an approximation of the original Occitan name. Both the culture and language of Languedoc was very different from the rest of France). By most accounts, the treatment of the French wine masters was poor. Culturally different, with their own Huguenot Religion and Occitan Language, they were treated much like indentured servants certainly not the status / treatment they expected.; certainly not the status / treatment they expected. The wine venture in Virginia was a failure. Likely the combination of grape diseases, insects, and lack of understanding and support by the Virginia colonists led to failure of the wine venture. With the wine venture unsuccessful, David Poole and the other French wine masters at Buck Roe turned to tobacco growing. As early as 1732, they had diverted their efforts to tobacco, with apparent success. The Virginia General Assembly was not happy about the abandonment of the wine venture and a law was passed inhibiting them from so doing on penalty of forfeiting their leases and having to quit the colony. Ultimately hard economics won out and Buck Roe became a commercial tobacco venture. By 1647, we see that David Poole is no longer leasing the land at Buck Roe (see notes below). My guess is that by that time, he had made money from tobacco and was doing well. Apparently he went back to Europe for at least a brief time, and returned with wife Mary, daughter Jane, and son Martin in 1752. There are subsequent deed documents for Jane and Martin, but ultimately I lose track of them. John Pool, their eldest son remains well documented as well as his children. After returning, we see that only his wife "Mary Poole" signed one legal document in 1755; which may mean that David was ill or dead by this time. I have followed others in estimating 1760 as reasonable date for David's death. As noted above, the efforts of French winemaker David Poule and his fellow "vinearoones" failed completely . Various documents give very different accounts of why; the truth is probably a mixture of the following. a) some say that the French were ill treated , and in anger failed on purpose (they were forbidden to grow tobacco as punishment for failure) b) some say the land, climate, deer, etc caused failure c) some say that the base grape root stock was not appropriate d) certainly the Indian raids, including one that may have killed as many as 1/3 of the Virginia colonists had an effect e) some historians note that the "get rich quick" mentality of the Virginia Colony at the time was ill suited to the long term consistent effort needed to develop a wine business (certainly this was a contributing factor) f) Tobacco was a hugely attractive alternative crop. Our David Poole was in very first group of French Huguenots to immigrate to Virginia. according to the "Huguenot Society" Early Huguenots in Virginia: "Huguenots came to Virginia as early as 1620, when Elias La Guard, James Bonnall and David Poole settled in Elizabeth City [from Huguenot Lineage Research, Melford S. Dickerson.]" These are documented to have been the first Huguenots in Virginia. In VA on March 22, 1622 a well coordinated attack by Indians resulted in the massacre of 346 settlers out of a total of 1240 . Those living in Elizabeth City County VA were largely unaffected. As a result of the massacre, the Indians were driven far away from the English settlements. Very small early Population, Rapid Growth In February 1624,in large part because of the massicure of 1622, a census was taken ; the population was 349 The number of tithables in Elizabeth City County, in 1748, was 1078,. In 1759, the number was 1428, which showed a population of 4284. At the time of the American Revolution the population of Hampton was probably about one thousand people. Unsuccessful at wine making in Virginia, the French turn to tobacco Unsuccessful at wine making, the French turn to tobacco growing t In 1632 the French created resentment of the general assembly by starting to raise tobacco. A law was passed inhibiting them from so doing on penalty of forfeiting their leases and having to quit the colony. Ultimately, economic reality set and the effort to make wine was abandoned in favor of the very profitable tobacco. Daniel Poole (Possible Brother to David) Daniel Poole worked at George Sandy's plantation, where a 2 acre vineyard was established. Sandy's Plantation was perhaps the best in Virginia In 1625 his plantation had seventeen servants including two boys, and Daniel Poole, "a French man" with his wife and "a yong child of theires." Poole was defined as a "hired" man. Besides his own people, another twenty-two lived "in the Treasuror's Plant." In this number were two women and several Italians. [Pg 81]His was, perhaps, one of the best equipped plantations in Virginia. There were two dwellings, cabins, two stores, a framed house for raising silkworms, a vineyard of two acres, and an acre and a half garden as well as "one large fort palled in" and a piece of mounted ordnance. His 100 barrels of corn was the largest amount reported by any single plantation. His arms were extensive-thirty "armours" of various types, thirty small arms and twenty swords. He was, however, a little short on livestock having only nine goats and kids and two hogs =============================================================================== David's Wife was Mary, her maiden name is unknown David's wife is documented to be "Mary". We do not know when Mary first immigrated. We know that David's relative, Daniel brought his wife when he immigrated -- and Mary may have initially come in the 1620's with David. I have not found records of these earliest immigrations. Later, after government was better established, there are multiple later immigration records showing Mary immigrating with her children (see below) Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1500s-1900s about David Poole Mary's maiden name is unknown, In fact almost nothing is known about her. She must have been "brave and hardy" since she is documented to have made the Atlantic crossing several times with her young children. She was likely born in Languedoc France; and likely fled with David to England. there are multiple immigration records for David Poole and family they include ( some of this may be duplicate listing for billing purposes ?) • 1627 DAVID (we know he first immigrated in 1620) • 1652/53 David, wife Mary, son Martin, daughter. Jane note Daniel immigrated at the same time • 1654 a John Poole immigrated (possibly David's oldest son)- Northumberland Co • 1655 Martin Poole Northumberland Co • 1655 Jane Poole Northumberland Co • 1655 John Poole, New Kent Co 1655 David Pool and Mary his wife Northumberland Co David and Mary's oldest child was John Poole Sr. wtp notes: Since not everyone accepts this connection, I provide documentation below: John Poole was David Poole's eldest child, and by far the best documented. a copy of several documents can be found in the attached media section, Place of birth could be VA, England , or Languedoc France. The argument for England (see discussion below) is that I see no record of him being an "alien" (while his father and mother are shown as "alien" , meaning not born in VA or England) but I do see immigration (so not born in VA)===========. in 1704, John Inherited his father's property 474 acres in Elizabeth City County. Also recorded deed prior owned by his mother Jane Avera, deceased. After David Poole died , there were several jury findings containing the following info (this from a 10 May 1670 dic.) P.149 Elizabeth City Co, VA, 10 May 1670. Wm. Alford, Gent, deputy escheater. Writ 18 April [1670] Jury find that David Poole was an alien and at the time of his death was seized of 420 acres, 50 thereof he purchased with James Vabrett(spelling?) who suffered death as a fellon in this County soe that the 50 acres more which belonged to Varbet doth escheat, which tract in the whole is 4 acres and is now in the tenure and occupation of Jane Poole, widow., relict of Jno.(John) Poole , sonne of David Poole, deceased, bith which tracts contained 474 acres, David Poole being an alien and Verbert dyeing a fellon, wee find to escheat (names from the jury, omitted here) Granted to Mrs. Poole ========================================== Discussion : where was John Poole born, VA?, England ?, Languedoc France ? John Poole's date of birth appears to be after David Poole's initial immigration to Virginia -- which argues for John being born in ECC VA. (possibly Yorke) On the other hand, there are immigration papers for John Poole from the same company that brought David and the other French wine experts. Although I do not consider the matter "settled" I tend to side with those that note the immigration records that show David probably returned Europe (to France or possibly England) and John was possibly born in Languedoc France or more probably, England.. I have seen some family trees that reference John as an "alien" but I have not seen any source document that documents that (possible confusion in docs, both David and Jane were "alien") The court records that list both David Poole and Jane Poole as "alien" also mention son John, but make no notation of "alien" for him; that would seem to support him being born in VA or England. there are multiple immigration records for David Poole and family they include ( some of this may be duplicate billing 1655 David Pool and Mary his wife Northumberland Co Jane Poole , Daughter of David and Mary Poole Name: David Poole Year: 1652 Place: Virginia Family Members: Wife Mary; Son Martin; Daughter Jane Source Publication Code: 6220 Primary Immigrant: Poole, David Annotation: Record of 20,000 very early immigrants, with much relevant information.

Leg. - mother Mary Poole; brother James the money in the hands of Jacob Walker, with reversion to brothers, Alexander, Nicholas, and David Poole" Nicholas Poole Note: data here is weak without better references -- however it is a VERY interesting name -- I believe it is the first time we see Nicholas as a given name in David Poole's descendants. There is also a Nicholas Pool in one of the Haplogroup G members, Thomas Glen Pool (Barbra Pool researches this line) I think this Nicholas is "worth looking at" as part of the lineage from Thomas Jefferson Pool > Joseph L Pool, Thos J Pool, Alban C Pool > Nicholas Pool --- to the early David Poole line. Estimates I have seen for the birth year of Nicholas vary widely - speculative : CASE FOR POSSIBLE LINK BETWEEN DNA MATCH " NICHOLAS POOL "AND THE NICHOLAS WHO WAS BROTHER TO ALEXANDER POOL SR( who died around 1742) What struck me was: • this Nicholas was a brother to an Alexander Poole, my direct line(and DNA proves our lines are closely connected) • the name Nicholas is rare in the David Poole line,( this may be the earliest use) • the ECC Nicholas Poole is believed to have been born about 1710 to 1725 --about the right time frame to be the father of "Y halplogroup G Nicholas" from familytreedna Poole Project • this was about the time that some of the ECC Poole families were migrating to NC -- for example the ECC Nicholas Poole had an uncle - William Poole who moved to NC --and died in Johnston Co NC The familytreedna "Nicholas Pool" (Barbra Pool's) line goes: Robert Lee Pool > Joseph Lilbourn Pool > Thomas Jefferson Pool > Alban Chapman Pool > Nicholas Pool. Notes: (con't.) ============================ Alexander Poole Jr In Middleton Poole's will., he left The Points Plantation to his wife, then upon her death to his daughter Ann, with Reversion to Alexander (JR) son of Alexander. Since Alexander Jr. r and sons Alexander III and James were living in Mecklenburg VA when Alexander Jr died in about 1767 -- and not living on the Points Plantation, I think we can safely assume that Ann Poole, daughter of Middleton Poole, was still alive in 1767. ================ The proof of this link is indirect (and therefore less certain) than the other links in this descendant chain. The evidence / proof of connection is, therefore, provided in some detail. THIS IDENTIITY OF ALEXANDER POOL IS STRONGLY SUPPORTED . THIS "PROOF" IS FROM COMBINING ELEMENTS OF EVIDENCE, WHICH IS A WEAKER PROOF THAN A SINGLE CLEAR DOCUMENT. (however, with Alexander Pool, Jr dying intestate, this is likley the very best proof that we will be able to develop) A CAREFUL REVIEW OF ALL KNOWN POSSIBLE CANDIDATES FOR WHICH OF SEVERAL ALEXANDER POOLS THIS IS. ALL BUT THIS ONE COULD BE PROVEN INVALID. THIS IS THE BEST OF THE CANDIDATES FOR FATHER TO JAMES AND ALEXANDER POOL. ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION IS NEEDED TO ABSOLUTELY PROVE THIS CORRECT CONNECTION.- BUT, WITH THIS ALEXANDER DYING INTESTATE, I DOUBTS THAT SUCH DOCUMENTS EXIST. This connection is made, in large measure, because several lines of Pool / Poole, proven by DNA to be very closely related, have been linked by excellent researchers to the Elizabeth City Co VA line of Pools. Any one of these would be suspect on it's own, but the totality of the John Pool line ( Audrey Pool), Hardy Pool line (Roy Poole), Nicholas Pool line (Barbara Pool), and this James Pool line all having evidence of be from the "ECC" line of Poole is very strong. I consider Audrey Pool, with 50+ years working on this line, to be the best genealogists of our Pool lines; I am strongly influenced by her belief (which she states as unproven) that we are all from this ECC / NC line of POOLE / POOL. • All l other Alexander Pool men identified (we examined 6 potential candidates) had clearly inconsistent records and were ruled out except for one, who on closer examination, appears never to have existed ( a proposed Alexander , son of George Pool). I have searched and found no evidence that Alexander son of George existed (all other children are clearly named in documents), so I have concluded that this was a researcher error that has been accepted and repeated. • Unlike others, that he is not shown living in ECC VA or Johnston / Wake NC . Although not poof, this is consistent with the thesis that this Alexander who went to Brunswick VA. then Mecklenburg (and is the father of James and Alexander Pool ). • Strongly supporting this are documents which link this Alexander Pool to related Pool's who went to Wake NC. (see Audrey Pool's evidence below). These are proven to be from the ECC line of Poole (spelling of Pool generally changed from Poole to Poole for those that migrated to NC). This says that Alexander Pool is indeed from the "right" line of Pool to be son of Alexander Pool Sr. • Perhaps the strongest single argument is mathematical. . The number of generations to a common ancestor is so far out that a) the probability of an even more distant connection is an extremely low probability (since Roy Poole and I are perfect 64 marker matches, we have around a 95% probability of common ancestor at the distance of Thomas Poole or earlier ( Thomas would be 8 generations back for me, assuming this Alexander Poole is indeed my correct link). SINCE THIS IS THE FATHER OF JAMES POOLE, WE KNOW THE FOLLOWING: • Named Alexander Pool from records of the Church Wardens • must have lived in Brunswick VA since James in sworn testimony states that he was born there in 1756 • must have lived in Mecklenburg VA in 1767 since father of James and Alexander died there. • Assuming the ECC David Poole connection is valid, must be a descendant of David Poole and his son John Poole; and likely also a descendant of Thomas Poole. • must be born in a year compatible with James' birth in 1756 • must not be a person whose DNA is identified by familytreedna as belonging to a different line of Pool /Poole. • assuming this is the same Alexander who was living in Brunswick in 1761 (likely because James was born there in 1756) -- wife's name was Susannah. Here were 6 possible "candidates" for the father of James and Alexander that I looked at (Donna Cuzze, Joe Slattery, and others have also looked at this issue, and I have the huge benefit of, and agree with their excellent work). ) a) John Pool Sr. > Thomas Poole, Sr. > Alexander Pool -- ruled out ( died in 1742 in ECC VA). b) John Pool Sr. >William Pool Sr. > Alexander Poole.-- ruled out ( died after 1764 in Johnston NC). c)John Pool Sr. > William Pool Sr. > Alexander Pool Sr. > Alexander Pool , Jr.- ruled out d)John Pool, SR >William Poole Sr. > George Poole > Alexander Pool. ( eliminated, George did not have a son named Alexander - ) ruled out e) John Poole SR > Thomas Poole Sr. > Alexander Poole (Sr.) >Alexander Pool(e), {Jr.} - only remaining candidate f) other "Alexander Poole" via more distant link . Father of this Alexander Poole is the first of his line named Pool -- so very unlikely that other Alexander Poole's exist . (e.g. children of Daniel Poole or Martin Poole. No others found in our search. The additional genertions to common ancestor is statistically improbablle (see calculations, generations to most recent common ancestor below). more wtp notes: Notes for Alexander Pool Jr, son of Alexander Pool Sr. (son of Thomas POOL): Alexander Pool Poole is proved as the father of James Pool by the extensive record research by Belva Cauthen. She spent a lot of time reviewing all available records ( in conjunction with her Harris / Hudson research) and the evidence that Alexander is well supported. This Alexander is recorded by the Church Wardens (who held quasi official status).

Alexander Pool was born in Elizabeth City County VA. He is mentioned in his father's Will. He was also mentioned in his cousin Samuel's will, and was in line to inherit the "Points" if his cousin Anne had died young. We assume that he remained in Elizabeth City until he became an adult, and then migrated, likely with other family members. We know that by around 1750 he had moved to Brunswick VA where he married a Susanna. Based on the date , knowledge of affilieated families, and that the given name has to be Susanna, Susanna "Sukie" Mitchell has been chosen as the strongest dcandidate wife for Alexander Pool. see Middleton Poole's will... he left The Points Plantation to his wife, then upon her death to his daughter Ann, with Reversion to Alexander (JR) son of Alexander. Since Alexander Jr. r and sons Alexander III and James were living in Mecklenburg VA when Alexander Jr died in about 1767 -- and not living on the Points Plantation, I think we can safely assume that Ann Poole, daughter of Middleton Poole, was still alive in 1767. ================ ALEXANDER POOL (JR.) IS DOCUMENTED BY THE CHURCHWARDENS TO BE THE FATHER OF JAMES AND ALEXANDER POOL. HIS FATHER , ALEXANDER POOLE, SR. IS THE ONLY IDENTIFIED VIABLE CANDIDATE FOR FATHER TO JAMES AND ALEXANDER POOL. SINCE THIS IS THE FATHER OF JAMES POOLE, WE KNOW : • must have lived in Brunswick VA since James in sworn testimony states that he was born there in 1756 • must have lived in Mecklenburg VA in 1767 since father of James and Alexander died there. • Assuming the ECC David Poole connection is valid, must be a descendant of David Poole and his son John Poole; and likely also a descendant of Thomas Poole. • must be born in a year compatible with James' birth in 1756 • must not be a person whose DNA is identified by familytreedna as belonging to a different line of Pool /Poole. assuming this is the same Alexander who was living in Brunswick in 1761 (likely because James was born there in 1756) -- wife's name was Susannah. more wtp notes: Notes for Alexander Pool: Alexander Pool Poole is proved as the father of James Pool by the extensive record research by Belva Cauthen.

Belva shows that this Alexander Pool seems to be closely associated with "affiliated" families that lived in the same areas of VA and witnessed each other's documents. My Hudson line . Ragsdale line, and Belva's Harris like are among the closely associated families. I have included a large selection of Belva's extensive notes in my "Descendants of James Pool" family tree file. In addition, James Pool's sworn testimony (Rev War Pension Application) says he was born in Mecklenburg in 1756-- and there is an Alexander Pool / Poole shown to be living there in 1755-1761. Alexander Poole died intestate, so we lack a "Will" document which could prove (or disprove) the connection. Both Alexander and James Pool were bound out to (different) Ragsdale's. I think it is likely that the Ragsdale's were related (we know there were Ragsdale - Hudson, and Ragsdale - Harris connections).. James' Rev War Pension application files contains a statement that James' birth records were lost in a fire in his Uncles' house. That Uncle could have been the Ragsdale's, it seems unlikely that he boys would be put in a non-family home if a family home had been available. wtp 8/2010 ================== Alexander Poole, s/o Alexander Poole, bound out to Richard Ragsdale, 1767 Alexander Poole's estate sale money to go to Churchwardens, St. James Par. 1770 James Poole, orphan of Alexander Pool, bound out to Benjamin Ragsdale, 1770; to be bound out again 1776 by Ch'ward.

We presume that no other immediate family was there. The boys were bound out to the Ragsdale family.(The Ragsdale's may have been related.

Signed by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool (her mark). Witnesses were James Macklin, Thomas Lanier, and John Peebels. Indenture was acknowledged in Court on January 25, 1762, by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool, and Susanna relinquished her right of dower. Deed Book 7, Page 52. from Brunswick County Deed Book 7 2. Susanna is shown to be the given name of John Mitchell's daughter (John was a Brunswick VA Planter). Entire will is included with John Mitchells bio, but here are the key sections John Mitchell Will provided by Audrey Pool, private email Page 107. Will. I, John MITCHELL of St Andrew's Parish in B, planter, being weak in body but of a sound mind, I desire all my debts that I owe in right or conscience, be well and truly paid within a convenient time after my death. ( see Wm Mitchell for the entire Will) To my daughter Sukei (Susannah) MITCHELL - 1 Negro named Peter. Also one tract of land of about 100 acres, it being part of the land I now live on, on the north side of the branch. Executors: wife Judy MITCHELL, and William MACLIN and James MACLIN.

On the motion of the exors. certificate is granted them for obtaining a probate in due form. notes: • Kezia shown in will as Susanna Mitchell's sister, is a MITCHELL name, therefore showing a HOLLOWAY-MITCHELL 3. Same John Mitchell Will shows a Susannah / Sukie is over 21 in 1745, so born before 1724 b. Macklin were witness, so must have lived close c. This is a Mitchell line known to be associated with our Pool family according to Audrey Pool's note. 4. Alexander Pool was living on his land in this area in 1761 From Brunswick Deed Book #7 Indenture made the 23rd day of November, 1761, between William Lanier and Matthew Parham, Jr., of Sussex County, for 100 pounds, conveying 235 acres on both sides of Shining Creek, adjoining Alexander Pool, William Macklin, John Hunington, Edward Denton, and John Clack. Witnesses were William Browne, Thomas Jackson, and J. Parham. Indenture acknowledged in Court on November 24, 1761, by William Lanier. Deed Book 7, Page 44. 5. In 1762 Alexander Pool and his wife Susanna are shown living my by the Wm Macklin as in Susanna Mitchell's father's Will ( he was a witness, and can safely assumed to have lived near John Mitchell in 1745) Indenture made the 8th day of January, 1762, between Alexander Pool and Susannah, his wife, parties of the first part, and Matthew Parham, Jr., of Sussex County, for 130 pounds, conveying 100 acres at the upper end of Shining Creek, and bounded by lands of William Macklin, John Clacks, and Alexander Pool (bought of William Lanier). Signed by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool (her mark). Witnesses were James Macklin, Thomas Lanier, and John Peebels. Indenture was acknowledged in Court on January 25, 1762, by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool, and Susanna relinquished her right of dower. Deed Book 7, Page 52. 6. Also in 1762 Alexander and Susanna Pool sell some of their land to Parham, connecting to John Mitchell (and therefore tying to Susanna Mitchell) again. Indenture made the 8th day of January, 1762, between Alexander Pool and Susannah, his wife, parties of the first part, and Matthew Parham, Jr., of Sussex County, for 130 pounds, conveying 100 acres at the upper end of Shining Creek, and bounded by lands of william Macklin, John Clacks, and Alexander Pool (bought of William Lanier). Signed by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool (her mark). Witnesses were James Macklin, Thomas Lanier, and John Peebels. Indenture was acknowledged in Court on January 25, 1762, by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool, and Susanna relinquished her right of dower. Deed Book 7, Page 52. 7. again Indenture made the 23rd day of November, 1761, between William Lanier and Matthew Parham, Jr., of Sussex County, for 100 pounds, conveying 235 acres on both sides of Shining Creek, adjoining Alexander Pool, William Macklin, John Hunington, Edward Denton, and John Clack.

Since they are so close in age, I think we can now rule out James and John as brothers ( John would have been the youngest of the three, and therefore would have been with his brothers in Mecklenburg). However, they could well have been first cousins, possibly descended from Alexander Pool Sr. (this is pure speculation at this time, with no evidence other than the fact that Alexander Poole Sr. is shown having 5 sons, which may be the common link between several of the related Pool families ( including also the Nicholas Pool line).

James "Jacob" B Pool At this time (2014) there is insufficient documentation to know for sure which Alexander Poole was the father of James Poole. It is likely the Alexander Poole shown to be living in Brusnwick VA in 1762 -- we know from James Pool's testimony that they were living in Brunswick VA in 1756. Several of the DNA matches to this line appear to be in the Elizabeth City County VA line of David Poole and his son John Pool. of birth was taken from Rev War Pension Files. these files give two birth years ( 1746 and 1756), the 1756 date appears to be the more likely. according to a handwritten document -- Publication number M804, Revolutionary War Pension and Bounty-Land Warrant Aplication files, James and Ursula moved to Laurens county SC in 1784 or early 1785. Sworn testimony of a neighbor (James Riley) in support of the Pension Application is a consistent and confirming record. It states that when he moved to the neighborhood in December, 1788 James and Ursula were already living in the area.

The Pool Family Cemetery, Overlooking Horse Creek in Laurens, SC According to a handwritten document -- Publication number M804, Revolutionary War Pension and Bounty-Land Warrant application files, James and Ursula moved to Laurens county SC in 1784 or early 1785. A confirming testimony from James Riley in 1848 states that James and Ursula were already in Laurens when he moved into the neighborhood in December 1788.

Many believe that Benjamin and Susannah were married in Chester County, SC. If so, who is the Benjamin in Mecklenburg County after 1772, the year Senior died? Before 1772, any reference to Benjamin could just as likely have been Senior. 1759: Benjamin Ragsdale and William Hunt posted bail for William Harris and William Lidderdale after a suit was brought against the latter by the executors of the Thomas Hawkins estate.[42] Lidderdale was, of course, actually Lauderdale; but was he a member of the Botetourt County family included on this website? 1761: Benjamin Ragsdale, Abram Crowder, and Peter (P) Hamlin witnessed a deed from William Harris Senior to John Smith for land in Lunenburg County.[43] 2 Mar 1765: Mark Moor, John, Joseph, and Benjamin Ragsdale witnessed a deed from Benjamin Hatcher to William Stone for 550 acres on Persimmon Branch of Middle Bluestone Creek.[44] 1770: James Poole, orphan of Alexander Poole, was bound out to Benjamin Ragsdale in Mecklenburg County.[45] 7 Aug 1779: He sold 40 acres on the middle fork of Blue Stone Creek to John Berry for £50. Witnesses:, Clausel Clausel, John Wilson, Thomas Berry, and [brother-in-law] Mark Moore.[46] 11 Oct 1779: Benjamin, Peter, and William Ragsdale were appointed to work on the road from Burwell's Mill to Woodpecker Creek.[47] Peter and William were Benjamin's brothers. 14 Feb 1783: He and [brother] John Ragsdale, Hutchens Burton, Sampson Lamkin, Thomas Berry and John Berry were mentioned as an adjoining landowners in a deed from [brother] Thomas Ragsdale to John Bruce in Mecklenburg County.[48] Hutchens Burton was married to Martha Ragsdale, daughter of John and Frances Ragsdale. 10 Nov 1783: Benjamin Ragsdale, Wilburn, and Tucker were mentioned as the adjoining landowners in a deed from Peter Ragsdale to John Marshall on Middle Bluestone Creek.[49] 20 Nov 1783: He sold 15 acres in Mecklenburg County to Stephen Clark for £15. Witnesses: J. Bruce, Cox (x) Whitlow, and John Ragsdale.[50] 1815: Benjamin died in Pendleton District, SC. Children of Benjamin and Susannah Price Ragsdale: They may have also had a son named Hezekiah. John Ragsdale (m. Nellie Harnage) Susannah Ragsdale (m. Archibald Hamilton) Thomas Ragsdale some of the Ragsdales were said to be responsible for the first Methodist "preaching stand" in an area that reads to be very close to the property held by the Pool family in the area of Princeton SC in an area where Laurens and Greenville Counties meet:(note that the Pooles help establish the first Baptist Church for Freed Slaves after the Civil War, that Church is still in operation) Reedy River along the Old Indian Line in the 96th District of South Carolina around 1786 and established with his brother-in-law, Mark Moore, a Methodist preacher born in Bristol Parish, Prince George County in 1726, the Lebanon Church. By the efforts of these two men a school and a Methodist Preaching Stand" were established on the borderline between Laurens and Greenville Counties. This preaching stand was perhaps the earliest Methodist "church" in the area. 3.6 Condensed collection of key documents ( providing evidence / proof that James Pool descended from the ECC line of Poole) The purpose of this document is to put enough of the key documents to support /prove the ancestry of James B Pool. It is by no means a complete collection ( the Pool family tree is now approaching 900 documents) however the following Provides some the documents. Caveat: the weakest link in this chain is proving which Alexander Pool is the father of James Pool. Since Alexander died intestate, we don't have a single clear document that we have for other links in this chain. A collection of indirect documents has been provided for Alexander. Unless additional key documents are found, we will have to await additional DNA test results for a final confirmation / correction of our earliest American ancestors.

ALEXANDER POOL documents Alexander Pool is documented to be the father of James and Alexander Pool by the St James Parrish Church Warden's records: Alexander Poole, s/o Alexander Poole, bound out to Richard Ragsdale, 1767 Alexander Poole's estate sale money to go to Churchwardens, St.James Par. 1770. James Poole, orphan of Alexander Pool, bound out to Benjamin Ragsdale, 1770; to be bound out again 1776 by Ch'ward. Additional Documents Not included here: I have a large collection of deeds and other documents that show Alexander Pool in Brunswick at the time Alexander was born (and James Pool's sworn Rev War Pension Documents confirms he was born in Meckenburg VA) and moving to Mecklenburg. There are later documents showing Alexander Pool in Mecklenburg VA. There are many documents tying Alexander Pool to Wm Hudson, who was James Pool's father in law. Alexander lived near and can be shown to be connected with the Hudsons (James married Wm Hudson's daughter, and was a benefactor to James Pool and his brother Alexander. Alexander named two of his daughters Cary and Polly, the same names Wm Hudson gave two of his daughters). There confirming connections to Mitchell, Ragsdale, Harris, and other families which provide strong confirmation that this Alexander was the father to James and Alexander Pool. Belva Cauthen's help is gratefully acknowledged. She provided dozens of pages of document and notes tying Alexander Pool to his sons and to various "allied" families.

Benjamin Arnold Alfred Perritt | James Pool (his mark) Jno. S. Gaines ALEXANDER POOL (JR) The following evidence shows Alexander Pool is father to James and Alexander Pool (III) {IT IS RECOGINIZED THAT THIS IS AN INDIRECT "PROOF", AND INHERENTLY WEAKER THAN THE REST OF THIS DOCUMENT CHAIN.. BUT SINCE ALEXANDER, FATHER TO JAMES, DIED INTESTATE, IT IS LIKELY THE BEST WE WILL BE ABLE TO DO} JAMES POOL'S FATHER IS PROVED TO BE ALEXANDER POOL BY ST JAMES PARRISH CHURCHWARDEN'S RECORDS. Alexander Poole, s/o Alexander Poole, bound out to Richard Ragsdale, 1767 Alexander Poole's estate sale money to go to Churchwardens, St. James Par. 1770 James Poole, orphan of Alexander Pool, bound out to Benjamin Ragsdale, 1770; to be bound out again 1776 by Ch'ward. Note that supporting evidence that Alexander is the father of James is provided by: • the fact that that James Pool's brother , Alexander, named children for William Hudson ( James's father in law and benefactor to both brothers). • the age that Alexander Pool's sons, ( James and Alexander) were bound to the Ragsdale family is consistent with the birth years for James and Alexander • the known locations (Brunswick and Mecklenburg VA) where Alexander Pool and family lived, are consistent with the documented locations where both James and Alexander Pool liveded; and is , again, consistent with this Alexander being the father of James and Alexander Pool. • the date (1767) of Alexander's death is consistent with James and Alexander's documented ages. Proving which of several Alexander Pool men was the correct one has proved a considerable challenge. Since a single direct evidence is not available (father Alexander died intestate) several indirect approaches were taken -- with the goal that the weight of the cumulative evidence might serve as "proof" of which Alexander Pool was the father of James and Alexander Pool. a) All identified Alexander Pool men were identified (see list below) and all could be ruled out except for Alexander, son of Alexander, grandson of Thomas. b) There is no continuing record of Alexander Pool, Jr (son of Alexander Sr.) remaining in the Elizabeth City or NC areas (see discussion below). We see documentation for the other brothers, so lack of documentation for Alexander Jr is supporting evidence that it is he that moved to Brunswick and then on to Mecklenburg VA. c) The given name Alexander seems to have come from an earlier "Avera" connection. This line of fathers and sons named Alexander seems to trace directly back to Alexander Pool, son of Thomas who is the first known Poole / Pool in this line to have the given name Alexander. (WTP July 2014) Basis of selecting Alexander, son of Alexander as father to James Pool . (this is revised thinking since 2012.... we have additional which appears to disprove all known alternative cases). Work by Joe Slattery, Bill Avery, and Donna Craze helped identify all "Alexander Poole men and to prove that all those identified, of than Alexander son of Alexander, can be proved as invalid connections. • Evaluation all other Alexander Pool men identified can be ruled out except for the proposed Alexander , son of George. Best evidence is that there was no such person as Alexander , son of George. (all other children of George Pool are clearly named in documents, lack of primary documentation strongly indicates that this Alexander" was merely an error by a early genealogist which got " copied and pasted" into a number of secondary documents • although very little documentation has been found on this Alexander Poole - the fact that he is not shown in ECC VA or Johnston / Wake NC increases the chance that this Alexander who went to Brunswick Va. then Mecklenburg is the father of James and Alexander Pool • the number of generations to a common ancestor is so far out that a) the probability of an even more distant connection is a very low probability (since Roy Poole and I are perfect 64 marker matches, we have around a 95% probability of common ancestor at the distance of Thomas Poole or earlier ( Thomas would be 8 generations back for me, assuming this Alexander Poole is indeed my correct link). Matching Criteria - Requirements necessary to be a viable candidate for father of James and Alexander seem to all be met by the Alexander Pool chosen: • IF THIS IS THE FATHER OF JAMES POOLE, THEN WE BELIEVE WE KNOW THE FOLLOWING ABOUT ALEXADER POOLE Facts that have to fit to be the "right" Alexander Poole - Alexander, son of Alexander meets all of the following criteria. • must have lived in Brunswick VA since James in sworn testimony states that he was born there in 1756 • must have lived in Mecklenburg VA in 1767 since father of James and Alexander died there. • Assuming the ECC David Poole connection is valid, must be a descendant of David Poole and his son John Poole; and likely also a descendant of Thomas Poole. • must be born in a year compatible with James' birth in 1756 • must not be a person whose DNA is identified by familytreedna as belonging to a different line of Pool /Poole. • assuming this is the same Alexander who was living in Brunswick in 1761 (likely because James was born there in 1756) -- wife's name was Susannah. • Possible "Alexander Poole men" that were evaluated Here are 6 possible "candidates" for the father of James and Alexander that I looked at (Donna Cozen, Joe Slattery, and others have also looked at this issue, and I have the great benefit of their work). a)John Pool Sr. > Thomas Poole, Sr. > Alexander Pool -- ruled out because this Alexander died in 1742 in Elizabeth City , VA. b) John Pool Sr. >Thomas Poole > William Pool Sr. > Alexander Poole.-> ruled out due, good evidence that this Alexander was the one in land disputes in NC (and therefore not the Alexander who moved to Brunswick then Mecklenburg)--ruled out c)John Pool Sr. > William Pool Sr. > ? this option is pure speculation with no supporting evidence-- ruled out d)John Pool, SR >Thomas Poole .> William Poole Sr. > George Poole > Alexander Pool. ( ruled out, I and others have searched and have not found any documents which indicate that George had a son named Alexander) • John Poole SR > Thomas Poole Sr. > Alexander Pool Sr. >Alexander Poole Jr -> our best case, no conflicts ... currently our only viable option that is supported by documentation. • some other "Alexander Poole" that we don't currently have identified (certainly possible, however probably would be a more distant connection, and the probable distance to a common ancestor , as provided by familytreedna would make this significantly less probable). • notes: v Alexander as son of George - Needs documentation to establish that George had a son named Alexander. As seen in some family trees and as proposed by Roy Poole, if valid, this would be an excellent fit, however we do find the names of George's children and the name "Alexander" is not seen on these lists. v Alexander Poole, son of William, grandson of Thomas seems to be ruled out IF the William Poole that moved to Bertie was the son of Thomas (and most likely this is the case)---because there are several Williams, the "Bertie NC William Poole" might be another man. I am partially persuaded that "William moving to Bertie" appears to be the "best fit" for the Roy Poole line, since he knows his people came from NC. We know that when Alexander Pool,( father of James B Pool and Alexander Pool, Jr) died, he died intestate. We presume that no other family was there. The boys were bound out to the Ragsdale family. more wtp notes: Notes for Alexander Pool: Alexander Pool Poole is proved as the father of James Pool by the extensive record research by Belva Cauthen. She spent a lot of time reviewing all available records ( in conjunction with her Harris / Hudson research) and the evidence that Alexander is well supported. This Alexander is recorded by the Church Wardens (who held quasi official status). Belva shows that this Alexander Pool seems to be closely associated with "affiliated" families that lived in the same areas of VA and witnessed each other's documents. My Hudson line . Ragsdate line, and Belva's Harris like are among the closely associated families. I have included a large selection of Belva's extensive notes in my "Descendants of James Pool" family tree file. In addition, James Pool's sworn testimony (Rev War Pension Application) says he was born in Mecklenburg in 1756-- and there is an Alexander Pool / Poole shown to be living there in 1755-1761. Alexander Poole died intestate, so we lack a "Will" document which could prove (or disprove) the connection.

Whether she was mother, or step mother to James and Alexander (III) Pool is less assured. 1. Susanna is shown as the given name of Alexander Pool's wife in several documents, here is one Indenture made the 8th day of January, 1762, between Alexander Pool and Susannah, his wife, parties of the first part, and Matthew Parham, Jr., of Sussex County, for 130 pounds, conveying 100 acres at the upper end of Shining Creek, and bounded by lands of William Macklin, John Clacks, and Alexander Pool (bought of William Lanier). Signed by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool (her mark). Witnesses were James Macklin, Thomas Lanier, and John Peebels. Indenture was acknowledged in Court on January 25, 1762, by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool, and Susanna relinquished her right of dower. Deed Book 7, Page 52. from Brunswick County Deed Book 7 2. Susanna is shown to be the given name of John Mitchell's daughter (John was a Brunswick VA Planter). Entire will is included with John Mitchells bio, but here are the key sections John Mitchell Will provided by Audrey Pool, private email Page 107. Will. I, John MITCHELL of St Andrew's Parish in B, planter, being weak in body but of a sound mind, I desire all my debts that I owe in right or conscience, be well and truly paid within a convenient time after my death.

This is a Mitchell line known to be associated with our Pool family according to Audrey Pool's note. 4. Alexander Pool was living on his land in this area in 1761 From Brunswick Deed Book #7 Indenture made the 23rd day of November, 1761, between William Lanier and Matthew Parham, Jr., of Sussex County, for 100 pounds, conveying 235 acres on both sides of Shining Creek, adjoining Alexander Pool, William Macklin, John Hunington, Edward Denton, and John Clack. Witnesses were William Browne, Thomas Jackson, and J. Parham. Indenture acknowledged in Court on November 24, 1761, by William Lanier. Deed Book 7, Page 44. 5. In 1762 Alexander Pool and his wife Susanna are shown living my by the Wm Macklin as in Susanna Mitchell's father's Will ( he was a witness, and can safely assumed to have lived near John Mitchell in 1745) Indenture made the 8th day of January, 1762, between Alexander Pool and Susannah, his wife, parties of the first part, and Matthew Parham, Jr., of Sussex County, for 130 pounds, conveying 100 acres at the upper end of Shining Creek, and bounded by lands of William Macklin, John Clacks, and Alexander Pool (bought of William Lanier). Signed by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool (her mark). Witnesses were James Macklin, Thomas Lanier, and John Peebels. Indenture was acknowledged in Court on January 25, 1762, by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool, and Susanna relinquished her right of dower. Deed Book 7, Page 52. 6. Also in 1762 Alexander and Susanna Pool sell some of their land to Parham, connecting to John Mitchell (and therefore tying to Susanna Mitchell) again. Indenture made the 8th day of January, 1762, between Alexander Pool and Susannah, his wife, parties of the first part, and Matthew Parham, Jr., of Sussex County, for 130 pounds, conveying 100 acres at the upper end of Shining Creek, and bounded by lands of William Macklin, John Clacks, and Alexander Pool (bought of William Lanier). Signed by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool (her mark). Witnesses were James Macklin, Thomas Lanier, and John Peebels. Indenture was acknowledged in Court on January 25, 1762, by Alexander Pool and Susannah Pool, and Susanna relinquished her right of dower.

DAVID POULE POOLE1-11 was born about 1590 in Languedoc France...3, 5, 11-15. He died about 1660 in Elizabeth City County VA (Buck Roe leased property assigned to John Ingrtasme in 1647.5-6, 16-18). He married Mary maiden name unknown about 1625 in England or France (rough estimate, likely between 1615-163019). She was born between 1590-1610 in Languedoc France. She died after 1660. Notes for David Poule Poole: BRIEF BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES: The original French family name may have been POULE according to the respected text," A History of Wine in America" Vol 1. However, although born in France, the area that David and Daniel came from didn't speak French -- so "Pool" or "Poole" may be just as close to the actual name as "Poule". (note the language in Languedoc in southern France spoken by the Poole's and other natives of Languedoc was actually not "French" but a distinct Language called "Occitan" called "d'oc" by its native speakers. it is a Latin based language that dates from Roman times. --the actual name as spoken by the family would not be French surname Poule -- my guess is that Poule is an approximation of the original Occitan name. Both the culture and language of Languedoc was very different from the rest of France). Some have advanced the speculation that our "Poole" family from Languedoc may have been so-called because they produced the high alcohol wine called Picapoll / Piquepoul/ Piquepoule, • A wikipedia reference notes" “picat” or “picada” are adjectives meaning “chopped”. Then look at “poll” which could mean “flea” or louse”. It seems like we’re no further in breaking this down from French except for one thing in that in Catalan “pell” means “skin”. It’s very believable that “pell” would become “poll” over centuries of use by peasants and so you actually have a name that means “chopped skin” which when you look at the grape is exactly what you see and you originally have “picadapell” for the original name. It all makes a great deal more sense than a “stinging hen” or well, whatever you get from the French name." David Poole is documented to have been born in Languedoc France. The date is not documented, but is estimated to be 1585 to 1600. To be recognized as a expert wine maker, he must have been in his 30's in 1620. He would not have likley been much older than that because of physical hardship and active threat of the native Indian population (it was a hard and dangerous time). David Poule Poole and his relative Daniel are likely the first of our DNA G Haplogroup Pool / Poole line to immigrate to America . Arriving in about 1720 , David was one of the first Poole surname persons to arrive in the American colonies. Daniel Poole (believed to have been a brother or close cousin) immigrated at about the same time. David was among seven wine experts that were brought to the Colony of Virginia with the aim to develop a wine industry in America that could rival France. They were to teach the colonists " how to plant trees and grape vines, raise silkworms, and make wine." Because the Huguenots were being persecuted in France, large numbers had fled to England and America. It is likley that the Brittish had their pick from a large group of higlhy qualified expert wine makers, and David Poole was recognized as a master in his trade. By most accounts, the treatment of the French wine masters was poor. Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 1 (con't) Culturally different, with their own Huguenot Religion and Occitan Language, they were treated much like indentured servants certainly not the status / treatment they expected.; certainly not the status / treatment they expected.The wine venture in Virginia was a failure. Likely the combination of grape diseases, insects, and lack of understanding and support by the Virginia colonists led to failure of the wine venture. By 1632, it was clear that excellent money was to be made in tobacco, and not in wine. The Virginia General Assembly was angered by the French wine masters switching to tobacco and pass a law "inbibiting them from so doing on penalty of forfeiting their leases and havng to qauit the colongy."( History of Hampton and Eliz City County, by L G Tyler published 1922;). Ultimately hard economics won out and Buck Roe became a commercial tobacco venture. The same reference qyotes Smollet as writting , " by the export of tobacco from the Chesapeake, the credithy of the colonies was chiefly, if not wholly supported". By 1647, we see that David Poole is no longer leasing the land at Buck Roe (see notes below). My guess is that by that time, he had made money from tobacco and was doing well. Well enough, apparently, to be able to afford to go back to Europe for at least a brief time, and returned with wife Mary, daughter Jane, and son Martin in 1752. There are subsequent deed documents for Jane and Martin, but ultimately I lose track of them. John Pool, their eldest son remains well documented as well as his children. After returning, we see that only Mary signed one legal document in 1755; which may mean that David was ill or dead by this time. I have followed others in estimating 1760 as reasonable date for David's death. ================== SOME NOTES / DOCUMENTS / DISCUSSION I consider the relationship between David Poole, his wife and children to be fully documented. The population of Elizabeth City in 1625 was only 359 persons, so the risk of confusing our line with the other Poole persons living in the area is minimal The original French family name may have been POULE according to the respected text, A History of Wine in America. Although born in France, the area that David and Daniel came from didn't speak French -- so "Pool" or "Poole" may be just as close to the actual name as "Poule". (note the language in Languedoc in southern France spoken by the Pooles and other natives of Languedoc was actually not "French" but a distinct Language called "Occitan" called "d'oc" by it's native speakers. it is a Latin based language that dates from the 10th century. --the actual name as spoken by the family would not be be French surname Poule -- my guess is that Poule is an approximation of the original Occitian name. Both the culture and language of Languedoc was very different from the rest of France).

In the 1630s Nicholas James, John Broche, William Savary, Nicholas Martiau, Giles Tavernor, John Vallet, and John Galliott settled in what is now York County. Also at that time, many French names appear in the upper County of New Norfolk. More French settlers came over the next three decades, settling in Lower Norfolk, Princess Ann and Isle of Wight Counties. [from Huguenot Lineage Research, Melford S.

Wm. Alford, Gent, deputy escheater.

I recommend reading the actual chapters (available on line) from "A History of Wine in America" From "A History of Wine in America" by Thomas Pinney, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA PRESS, © 1989 The Regents of the University Below, I have extracted some discussion that relates to what I believe is our line of Pool / Poole: eight vignerons sent to Virginia in 1619, Frenchmen from Languedoc-Elias La Garde, David Poule, Jacques Bonnall are among the names preserved of this group We know also that they were settled at Kecoughton, Elizabeth City County, near the coast and therefore relatively secure from Indian attack.[44] This region had been recommended as early as 1611 by Sir Thomas Dale, who observed that the two or three thousand acres of clear ground there would do for vineyards and that "vines grow naturally there, in great abundance."[45] Indeed, the suitability of the region had been remarked even earlier, in 1572, by the Jesuit Father Juan de la Carrera. Carrera, with what his editors describe as "typical pious exaggeration," wrote that the Spanish found at Kecoughton (which he called "the Bay of the Mother of God") "a very beautiful vineyard, as well laid out and ordered as the vineyards of Spain. It was located on sandy soil and the vines were laden with fine white grapes, large and ripe. Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 1 (con't) and from page 16 we see suggestion that he arrived late in 1619: The official company statement says that the French vignerons went out in 1619, but they must have arrived too late to do any planting that year-indeed, a letter from Virginia as late as January 1620 pleads for both vines and vignerons from Europe, a fact that suggests the company was slower to carry out its claims than to publicize them and from page 17: The sequel to all this preparation was disappointment. How could it have been anything else, given the practical difficulties? A little wine was made from native grapes, but it proved unsatisfactory. And the failure to make anything out of wine-growing in the face of a prosperous tobacco industry soon led men to give up a losing game. Besides that, the get-rich-quick mentality that dominated in early Virginia... Emigration, some sources give 1619 as the year of emigration, we know he was in VA initially by 1620, and we know he was leasing land in 1627 here is an emigration record for 1627 Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1500s-1900s David Poole / Poule was a Huguenot according to the "Huguenot Society" Early Huguenots in Virginia Huguenots came to Virginia as early as 1620, when Elias La Guard, James Bonnall and David Poole settled in Elizabeth City.

From Page 12 … Supported by an orthodox economic argument. In order to obtain such products as silk, wine, and olive oil, England had to pay cash to Spain and France, its rivals and enemies. One of the persistent objects of early English colonization was therefore to provide England herself with silk, wine, oil, and other such commodities. From page 14 Lord De La Warr (governor of Virginia) seems to have taken some French vine dressers with him on his voyage to Virginia in 1610, though the information is tantalizing indistinct - and therefore not wholly reliable. True Declaration of the Estate of the Colony in Virginia (1610) a tract written to raise fresh fund for th3e company after the disastrous starving time in the winter of 1609-10, we hear of Frenchmen with Lord De La Warr preparing to plant vines Page 16 Despite the companys advertisements and the governors plea for skilled vinearoones, one seems to have ventured forth until a long eight years later 41 There were, as we know, eight vignerons sent to Virginia in 1619, Frenchmen from Languedoc - Elias La Garde, David Poule, Jacquest Bonnall, are among the names preserved of this group. We know also that they were settled at Keccoughton , Elizabeth City County, near the coast and therefore relatively secure from Indian attack. 45 The official company statement say that the French Vignerons went out in 1619 but they must have arrive too late to do any planting that year - Indeed, a letter from Virginia as late as January 1620 pleads for both vines and vignerons from Europe, a fact that suggests the company was slower to carry out its claims than to publicize them…. … Just when the Frenchmen planted their vines is not clear. In 1620 the company, encouraged by the early reports, announced that it was looking for more vineyardists from France and from Germany, and that it was trying to procure plants of the best kinds from France, Germany, and elsewhere 50 Note that Sandys and his elder brother were proponents of industrialization of Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 1 (con't) the colony. Glassworks, ironworks, shipbuilding were among the industries proposed. ============== Some Notes on early ECC History, abstracted from LG Tylers 1922 "History of Hampton AND Elizabeth City County, VA" • ....April 26, 1607 ....Upon the invitation of some friendly Indians to come ashore to their town called by them Kecoughtan, Captain John Smith says: ''Wee coasted to their town running over a river running into the main where these savages swam over with their bowes and arrows in their mouths." "Kecoughtan," continues the doughty Captain, "has a convenient harbor for fisheries, boats or small boats, that so conveniently turneth itself into Bayes and Creeks that make that place very pleasant to inhabit, their corn-fields being girded thereon as peninsulars. " " The abound-ance of fish, fowls, and deer" was noted The name Kecoughtan does not appear regularly in legal documents from 1619. The new name, Elizabeth City, was called after the daughter of King James I. The cor-poration of Elizabeth City developed into Elizabeth City County in 1634. In 1705 the town of Hampton was founded by an act of the Legislature. • The year 1619 saw great changes made in the govern-ment of Virginia. Hitherto the settlers were only soldiers and martial law prevailed. Now the free laws of England were proclaimed, and to every man was assigned a certain area of land. On July 30, a general assembly met at James-town, • In 1620, the company sent some Frenchmen to Buck Roe to teach the colonists how to plant mulberry trees and grape vines, raise silkworms, and make wine. They were selected by John Bonnell, silkworm raiser to the King at Oakland, from Languedock in France, and among them were Anthony Bonneir, Elias La Guard', James Bonnell, Peter Arundell and David Poole. • ' March 22, 1622 occurred the massacre at which time 346 settlers out of a total of 1240 were slaughtered; As a result of the massacre, the Indians were driven far away from the settlements, • Population Growth(extracted from various parts of document) In February 1624, a census was taken of the inhabitants of the colony according to which it appeared that Eliz- abeth City Corporation had a population of 349 Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 1 (con't) The number of tithables in Elizabeth City County, in 1748, was 1078, which was more than double what it was at the close of the preceding century. In 1759, the number was 1428, which showed a population of 4284. At the time of the American Revolution the population of Hampton was probably about one thousand people. Unsuccessful at wine making in Virginia, the French turn to tobacco In 1632, the French vignerons at Buck Roe incurred the resentment of the general assembly by dropping into tobacco raising, and a law was passed inhibiting them from so doing on penalty of forfeiting their leases and having to quit the colony. Hurricane of 1749 In 1749, a hurricane, which has been described as most terrific and disastrous, visited Virginia David Poole is believed to be Y Haplogroup G1. Which possibly dates to about 10,000 years ago. Haplogroup G is associated with the Neolitic revolution, where farming and civilization were "invented". Dr John Hawks, of the Universityh of Wisconsin - Madison makes several interesting points that may relate to our pre-historic ancestors, and the Neolothic Revolution which they helped create. • Many Pool people are blue eyed. This is a trait that dates back only around 10,000 years. • Development of agriculture has "sped" human evolution. Changes since the invention of farming include 1. Thinning of human skull - same amount of brain in less total volume 2. Smaller teeth (prepared food requires less grinding of teeth) 3. Changes in genes to help prevent new diseases that began when larger groups of people began living together. 4. Human caused extinction of many species of large animals. 5. Changes in other species caused by planned breeding by humans ( e.g. dogs, cattle, horses, etc) 6. Changes in plants (e.g. corn and grain) caused by selective breeding by humans.

Since he was shown as immigrating, but not shown as an "alien" he was likley born in England (birth in VA, or Languedoc France remains possible) • He is clearly shown as the eldest child of David Poole in multiple court Documents • He married Jane (possible maiden name Boult?) she was descended from Languedoc France family, and believed to be a Huguenot (David is listed by the Huguenot Society, but wife Jane is not). • They had three sons and one daughter- whose names and relationships are clearly documented in Wills and various court papers ( as listed in the references) • Was likley a planter, with tobacco as his "cash crop" (his father is believed to have been growing tobacco since approximately 1632; to the displeasure of the VA government which wanted him to continue trying to develop a VA wine industry) We believe that both John and his wife Jane were French Huguneots and very strongly influence by the language and culture of Languedoc France ( which is Occitan, not French in both language and culture. The dates for John's deat wre taken from his 1667 Will. John had a short life. There is no record of how he died; death by disease, accident, and Indian attack were all common in Virginia in the 1600's. CONNECTING JOHN POOLE TO PARENTS AND CHILDREN. The document trail connecting John Pool to his parents is very clear as is the document trail connecting John and Jane Poole to their children. John Pool as David Pool's eldest known child ( there are court documents which specifically list him as the eldest), John is by far the best documented of David's children, a copy of several of the key documents is attached to the "media section" of this report. John's place of birth could be VA, "England, or Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 2 (con't) Languedoc France. The argument for England is tha I see no record of him being called an "alien" ( although his mother and fatherer are specifically listed as aliens), but I do see immigration records , this would imply that he was not born in VA. If he had been born in France, the records shnould have listed him as an alien. in 1704 John inherited his father's property, 474 acres, in Elizabeth "City County. Also recorded deed prior owned by his moherh Janve Avers, deceased. After Dafvid Poole died, there were several jury findings containingt essentiall the same information, as follows: " Jury find that Davide Poole was an alien and at the time of his death was seized of 420 acres, 50 therof he purchased with James 'Varbrett(spellingt?) who suffered death as a fellon in this County soe that the 50 acres more which elonged to Barbret doth escheate, whcih tract in the whole is 4 acres and is now in the tenure and occupation of Jane Poole, widdow, relict of John Poole, sonne of David Poole, deceased both which tractes contained 474 acres. David Poole being an alein and Varbrett(spelling?) dying a fellon, we find to escheate. (names from the jury, omitted here)....

I cannot find an original document that states this, and it may be confusion with documents that refer to David Poole as an alien. Donna Cuzze believes John was born in VA. Until I can find additional documentation I will list 3 alternatives France, America, England...

John Poole's date of birth appears to be after David Poole's initial immigration to Virginia -- which argues for John being born in ECC VA. (possibly Yorke) On the other hand, there are immigration papers for John Poole from the same company that brought David and the other French wine experts. Although I do not consider the matter "settled" I tend to side with those that note the immigration records that show David probably returned Europe (to France or possibly England) and John was possibly born in Languedoc France.or possibly England.. I have seen some family trees that reference John as an "alien" but I have not seen any source document that documents that (possible confusion in docs, Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 2 (con't) both David and Jane were "alien") The court records that list both David Poole and Jane Poole as "alein" also mention son John, but make no notation of "alien" for him; that would seem to support him being born in VA or England. there are multiple immigration records for David Poole and family they include ( some of this may be duplicate listing for billing purposes ?) DAVID (we know he first immigrated in 1620) /53 David, wife Mary, son Martin, dau Jane note Daniel immigrated at the same time a John Poole immigrated (possibly David's oldest son)- Northumberland Co Martim Poole Northumberland Co Jane Poole Northumberland Co John Poole, New Kent Co 1655 David Pool and Mary his wife Northumberland Co Notes for Jane Poole Avera Boult?: BRIEF BIOGRAPHY FOR JANE NOTE" MOST GENEALOGISTS REFER TO JANE AS "JANE AVERA" == THAT WAS HER NAME AFTER HER SECOND MARRIAGE. I note this for reference , since most on-line search results have "Jane" referenced under "Jane Avera", and virtually all family trees that include her list her as Jane Avera (some may think that was her maiden name). We have little knowledge of Jane • Maiden name may have been Boult or Boutwell. Donna Cuzze examined all immigrants to Elizabeth City Va in the time frame to be John Poole's wife. Jane Bout was the only one she she found with the right given name in the right time frame. • She is believed to have maried John Pool in about 1658. This estimate is made from the estimated date of their eldest son, John of c 1660. • Donna Cuzze makes the observation that Jane maintained the Poole land she inherited and made sure that her sons got their 'fair share" She also notes must have taken a really strong woman to accomplish that in her day ( and also likely that Henry Avera was a good and honest man). • She held lands in Nansemond County -- Nansemond was part of Elizabeth City until 1636. • Jane has custody of her grandson John Whitfiled as of 1695 ( Thomas, father of John, died in 1694). from the Elizabeth City County court orders book: Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 2 (con't) John Poole Sr. and Jane Poole Avera Boult? had the following children: Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 2 (con't) 3. i.

Notes for Thomas Poole: BRIEF BIOGRAPHY FOR THOMAS POOLE Thomas Poole, eldest son of John and Jane Poole; was born in about 1660 (he was deeded land in 1688, so he must have been born before 1667). He was deeded Poole Ridge by about 1700. By 1704 he is shown as owning 1,200 acres. According to Joe Slattery,( an excelent Poole Genealogist), at this time (1704) he is the only child of John and Jane Poole remaining in Elizabeth City County VA., however, I see other documentation that indicates that this is not true . In trying to resolve this , I came across Bill Avery's (also excellent) work which may provide an explaination. Bill writes " THE SONS THOMAS, HENRY, & ALEXANDER WHO EVENTUALLY MOVED TO NC TO THIER FATHER HENRY AVERA, JR., and back to Elizabeth City Thomas Poole is potentially a common ancestor to several of the Haplogroup G Poole lines.. This makes his records and data of particular importance. Although additional references would be VERY useful, the existing data set between David Poole, John Poole, and Thomas Poole seems adequately documented to confirm the linkage of persons. Based on known average rate of Y chromosome mutation, and factoring into the calculation that our genealogy records indicate no common ancestor within recent generations; Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 3 (con't) familytreedna gives around a 95% confindence level that our closest common ancestor should be at or before this Thomas Poole. (with the large caveat that this connection to DAVID POOLE ECC line has not be completely proven-- the document trail, while substantial, is incomplete). Noted genealogist, Audrey Pool, also believed that her John Pool line was linked to Thomas Pool. On Sep 145, 2012 Audrey wrote me via email. " I think you can wee why I think Thjomas Pool (earliest andestor) is our direct line! Our John Pool and "Hu8ldah" lived on Halfway Swamp, Saluda Rivedr, Edgefiled District SC. In a map of 1817 in my possession, at the end of Halfway Swamp tht is called "Battle (Battalion?) Muster Field -- Pools" When looking at immigrant counties of early VA, Isle of Wight, ECC, and others, they are so close together and many of the families lived in all areas ... depending of the time frame.

He more than doubled his land holdings, he inherited 474 acres and is shown in in the rent rolls as have 1200 acres 1704Thomas , Inherited his father's property 474 acres in Elizabeth City County. Note also that the Rent Roll of the Lands in ECC for 1704 show Thomas Poole to own 1800 acres • according to Joe Slattery ( Feb 2001 posting)" Thomas was the only Pool/Poole in Elizabeth City County in 1704 NOTE: there were two Thomas Pooles living in the General Area as shown by the 1704 Rent Rolls.(a Duplcate Copy was found in England ... this second Thomas Poole may have been the one that immigrated in Oct 1666. The 1704 Rent Rolls show "our" Thomas Poole in Elizabeth City County and the other Thomas in Princess Ann County. The same roll shows a George Poole in Princess Anne County. (this last information is from"Alphabetical Rent Roll of V in 1704" There are multiple clear documents connecting Thomas Pool to his parents and to his children.there are multiple documents that also clearly show the names of her three Pool sons and daughter: • e.g ".Whereupon evidence being heard and jury impaneled finds for the deft.

Charles Avera names his wife in his will as "Ursula." In Charles Avera's will, he leaves his son William the plantation that he purchased from ***Christoper Copeland.

In a will recorded 1752 in Norfolk VA, a Mary CATO names as her brother Christopher POOLE and her sister Sarah SCOTT as heirs.

Notes for Thomas Whitfield SR: note JOHN OR JONATHAN POOLE5 WHITFIELD SR was born about 1680 in ECC VA (he was less than 16 at time of father's will, all children born after 1678). John or Jonathan Poole died in 1726. Thomas Whitfield SR and Anne Poole had the following child: i. THOMAS4 WHITFIELD was born in 1684 in VA. He died in 1714 in Elizabeth City Co VA. Generation 4 Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 4 (con't) 6. ALEXANDER4 POOLE (Thomas3, John2 Sr., David Poule)50-51, 66-69 was born about 1685 in Elizabeth City County Va48, 50, 67-75. He died on 13 Jun 1742 in Elizabeth City County Va48, 50, 67-69, 73, 76. He married (1) MARY NAMED ON SAMUELS'S WILL about 1720 in Elizabeth City County Va. She was born about 1690 in likely Elizabeth City Co VA (no documents for date or location; was alive at time of husband Alexander's will). Notes for Alexander Poole: Brief Biographical Notes Alexander Poole is believed to have been named for his father's half brother, Alexander Avera. Alexander Poole is believed to have been the first Alexander in this "ECC" Poole line Since Alexander Pool, father of James and Alexander Pool (III) died intestate in 1767; we don't have a will or other single clear document tying him to his ancestors. 'Accordingly, an indirect proof has been made, consisting of two major parts a) all known Poole men named Alexander were examined, all could be proved invalid except for one ( the son of Alexander Poole, SR); and b) We searched for this Alexander Poole (son of Alexander Poole Sr) in both Elizabeth City Virginia, and Johnston and Wake NC and did not find and deeds or other documents showing him to have either remained in Elizabeth City or to have traveled to NC with his family. Without a better document to either confirm or disprove this connection, we believe that this is the best we will be able to do in establishing which Alexander Poole was the father of James. A third, but weaker support lies in the fact this this Alexander appears to be the most direct connection (not proved invalid) to Thomas Poole who is a potential / likely common grandfather to several Poole lines that have been proven to have identical or near identical Y chromosome DNA. Additional Notes: After a review of all identified men living ithe the VA and NC areas where the ECC Pooles were known to linve, Alexander Poole is my only remaining viable candidate for father of Alexander Pool (grandfather to James and Alexander Pool III). Each of the other Alexandr Poole men had solid data that proves they cannot be the Alexander who was father to James Pool. This line of Alexander Poole also provides what appears to be a strong, but still speculative link in the ancestor chain of Nicholas Pool from the Haplogroup G Pools.

Several groups of genalogists held significantly different opinions.

As once proposed by Roy Poole would be an excellent fit, however, there are two significant difficulties: 1) I have found no proof that George had a son named Alexander. and 2) a son of George would be "young", perhaps too young to be a good candidate for the father of This would be the closest possible connection and therefore (according to the statistics provided by familytreedna) the more likely -- however, without any documentation to prove that there actually was such a person. So, unless additional documentation can be found, this is tentatively ruled out. v Alexander Poole, son of William, grandson of Thomas seems to be ruled out IF the William Poole that moved to Bertie was the son of Thomas ---because there are several Williams, the "Bertie NC William Poole" might be another man. However, "William moving to Bertie" is a good potential fit for the Roy Poole line. Below I have inserted a note from Joe Slattery that provides a strong argument against accepting William's son Alexander as the Alexander who was father to James and Alexander Jr: --it does, of course, assume that William Poole that moved to Bertie was son of Thomas Poole. ID: I40512 Name: Alexander Poole 1 Sex:M Birth: BET 1715 AND 1735 in Bertie County, NC Event: Fact1 1764 He bought land in Johnston County, NC from William Gurley 2 Event: Fact2 1764 Worked on a road from the county line to the little creek on little river 2 Death: AFT 1764 in Johnston County, NC v Alexander, son of Thomas seems to be ruled out because he died in 1742 -- while "our" Alexander died around 1767 v That leaves Alexander Poole, son of Alexander Pool and grandson of Thomas Poole. I have very little info on this man. Several genealogists have suggested a birth date of around 1710 which would fit. However I have no locations to "test" against what we know about James's father. Another weakness in this selection is the "generations to a common ancestor" is substantially increased by this choice -- and statistics provided by familytreedna show this to be much less likely (although possible) than one of the closer connections. v Note: I have left out of this analysis any potential connections earlier than Thomas Poole -- although possible, the probability of the closest common ancestor Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 4 (con't) being this many generations back is so low that I have "ruled it out" (possible but extremely unlikely). Joe Slattery makes the following case to line the ECC Poole and Johnston Co NC Poole families (I think Audrey Pool published a similar argument linking names and associated families) 1) 1/1764 Court Term. Alexander Pool bought land from Wm. Gurley. I believe that this Alexander Poole is the son of Alexander Poole, Sr, and grandson of Thomas Poole and Ann Copeland. We know Alexander Poole, Sr. died 1742 in Elizabeth City County, VA per his will recorded there. 4/1765 Court Term, #5 John Pool named to lay out a road. In my master database, I have a John Poole, born 1730-1745 in VA, died 11/1796 Jo Co, had children John Poole, Jr and Winnifred Poole. In my Ellizabeth City County database, I have a John Poole, born between 1730-1750, died unknown, children and spouse unknown, son of Thomas Poole, Jr., grandson of THomas Poole Sr and Ann Copeland. I believe that these are both the same persons. His cousin was Alexander Poole above, and he was in NC. Based on these facts , I think that both Alexander Poole and John Poole, Jr. that were in Johnston County, NC came from the Pooles of Elizabeth City County, VA, both cousins and grandsons of Thomas Poole, Sr. and Ann Copeland. this note from Joe Slattery, highlights conflicts which show "Alexander, son of William" was not the father of James Pool (unless the Alexander Poole men have been mixed up -- possible but not probable) ID: I40512 Name: Alexander Poole 1 Sex: M Birth: BET 1715 AND 1735 in Bertie County, NC Event: Fact1 1764 He bought land in Johnston County, NC from William Gurley 2 Event: Fact2 1764 Worked on a road from the county line to the little creek on little river 2 Death: AFT 1764 in Johnston County, NC Father: William Poole Sr. b: BET 1680 AND 1700 in Elizabeth City County , VA Mother: Unknown Sources: 1.Title: Joe Slattery, Poole researcher, e mail joeeslatt@yahoo.com 2.Title: Johnston county court minutes, 1764 related note from Donna Cuzze NOTE: Forgot to mention that Alexander born circa 1703-1720 that I put in there he died Aft 1764 based on "if" he was the Alexander who went to NC.

The Points" adjoining Thomas Pool land with reversion to day Ann Poole Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 4 (con't) bais of rough estimates for Ann Poole's birth and death (wtp) • the estimate of Ann's birth year is based on Middleton's birth year- which was also an estimate == accordingly, the estimate is very rough the fact the the POINTS was to be inherited by Ann after her mother died , with REVERSION to Alexander son of Alexander -- seems to imply that Alexander Jr is younger than Ann. • Ann would likely have been about the same age as Alexander, son of Alexander • She was alive in 1740 when father Middleton wrote his will • Ann was to receive the Points upon the death of her mother Elizabeth Poole. Land would have reverted to Alexander Poole, son of Alexander if he was living at the time of Ann's deathsee Middleton Poole's will... he left The Points Plantation to his wife, then upon her death to his daughter Ann, with Reversion to Alexander (JR) son of Alexander. Since Alexande Jr. r and sons Alexand III and James were living in Mecklenburg VA when Alexander Jr died in about 1767 -- and not living on the Points Plantation, I think we can safely assume that Ann Poole, daughter of Middleton Poole, was still alvie in 1767. (assuming that the evidence showing Alexander Jr is the father of James Poole and brother Alexander is accempted as convincing evidence). ii. UNVERIFIED RUTH POOLE was born about Jan 1735. iii.

He died on 22 Jan 1740 in Elizabeth City County Va (oldest child, John and Ann likely married abt 1690). Notes for Thomas Poole: John Poole's oldest child was Thomas Pool.

This John I show a date of born 1680-1690, and died 1739-1740 per his will. I am basing this on the fact that no John Poole showed up as an attorney until 1719, which would match to what I have as this John's birth date if you add his years he would have had to spend in school to become a lawyer. Also, around 1716-1717, John Poole shows up as a juror numerous times. I believe that it might be part of his training to have spent some time as a juror in various courts prior to beginning his legal practice. Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 4 (con't) note from Donna Cuzze John Poole, Jr. died in Elizabeth City County VA.

ALEXANDER5 POOL JR (Alexander4 Poole, Thomas3 Poole, John2 Poole Sr., David Poule Poole)40, 48, 50, 69, 98, 104 was born after 1726 in Elizabeth Ciity Co, VA40, 69. He died about 1767 in Mecklenburg, Virginia, United States (James and Alexander's father died in c 176750, 69). He married Susanna Mitchell, daughter of John Mitchell and speculative Judith needs review Cardwell, about 1750 in Brunswick VA69, 105 (uncertain, Alexander Pool born approx 1753). She was born about 1720 in Brunswick VA (3nd child, est. birth 7 years after marriage of parents106-107). She died between 1763-1767 in Brunswick VA?69, 78. Notes for Alexander Pool Jr: BRIEF BIOGRAPHY FOR ALEXANDER POOL Alexander Pool was born in Elizabeth City County VA. He is mentioned in his father's Will. He was also mentioned in his cousin Samuel's will, and was in line to inherit the "Points" if his cousin Anne had died young. We assume that he remained in Elizabeth City until he became an adult, and then migrated, likely with other family members. We know that by around 1750 he had moved to Brunswick VA where he married a Susanna. Based on the date , knowledge of affiliated families, and that the given name has to be Susanna, Susanna "Sukie" Mitchell has been chosen as the strongest candidate wife for Alexander Pool (evidence for this is included in Susanna Mitchell's profile). FATHER TO JAMES AND ALEXANDER POOL. All known "Alexander Poole / Pool" men from the ECC VA Poole line were reviewed (6 candidates); of the 6, 1 proved to be invalid (non-existent, genealogist error that got accepted and repeated), and 4 were ruled out because of documented evidence (see notes below); leaving this Alexander Pool as the only remaining candidate. However, it is recognized that this is an awkward and weaker proof. I and others continue to search for additional records. One additional supporting argument for this choice is that this Alexander Pool (Sr.) may well turn out to be the common grandfather for both the Nicholas Pool and James Pool lines. Descendants of these two Pool lines have identical Y chromosome DNA, this very close connection would be expected with such a close connection. A second point of confluence adds more support: the line of Roy Poole is shown going through William Pool (Alexander Pool, Sr.'s brother) to Thomas Pool; once again with identical Y chromosome DNA, a very close connection is very strongly mandated by the statistics - and the common grandfather Thomas Poole would provide this close connection. In addition, note that Alexander Pool III named two of his children with the same names as Wm Hudson's Children (Cairy and Polly). I think the odds of this are very low, and I think it add confirming evidence that we have chosen correctly in choosing Alexander as father to James Pool. Note that this Alexander remains only candidate for the father of James Poole not ruled out because of conflicting data (it is recognized that this is a weak proof. but it was our only recourse without the direct records we needed) Descendants of David Poule Poole Generation 5 (con't.) a) all other Alexander Pool men identified can be ruled out except for a once " proposed Alexander" , son of George. Since I have found no solid evidence that Alexander son of George existed (all other children are named in documents), I have ruled that Alexander out also (subject to immediate reversal if I can find any documents that indicate Alexander, son of George existed). a) although very little documentation has been found on this Alexander Poole - the fact that he is not shown in ECC VA or Johnston / Wake NC increases the chance that this Alexander who went to Brunswick VA then Mecklenburg is the father of James and Alexander Pool b) the number of generations to a common ancestor is so far out that a) the probability of an even more distant connection is an extremely y low probability (since Roy Poole and I are perfect 64 marker matches, we have around a 95% probability of common ancestor at the distance of Thomas Poole or earlier ( Thomas would be 8 generations back for me, assuming this Alexander Poole is indeed my correct link). ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE OF LINK OF THIS LINE TO THE DAVID POOLE LINE OF VA, many of whom migrated to Wake and Johnston NC There are close family connections in the David Poole line which we still see lasted in the Alexander Pool, Jr descendants line. Bagwell is one example. Alonzo Pool died in Wake in the home of a Bagwell (1905), Wm H Pool II first business partner in Greenville SC was a Bagwell and the company was called Pool and Bagwell. Mitchell is another name that links both lines and DNA "cousins" (identical or nearly identical Y chromosome matches) I Will of Alexander Poole, Elizabeth City County, VA leg.-son Samuel, the plantation given me by my father's will.

Since Alexander Jr. r and sons Alexander III and James were living in Mecklenburg VA when Alexander Jr died in about 1767 -- and not living on the Points Plantation, I think we can safely assume that Ann Poole, daughter of Middleton Poole, was still alive in 1767.

[[Category:McCarthy Name Study]]
=== OUR McCARTHY Y-CHROMOSOME DNA RESULTS === Summary of [[McCarthy-2110 |Patrick Eugene McCarthy]]'s and [[McCarthy-2132 |John Anthony McCarthy]]'s Y-DNA test results: John and Pat are McCarthys… and McCarthys of R-L21 Group B3b (Munster branch). John and Pat are ZS4606+, which puts them with only about 22% of McCarthys who are paternal descendants of the eponymous Cárthach (d. 1045) (i.e., about 70% of those with the surname McCarthy do NOT descend from Cárthach). Supposition based on phylogeny: "A great-grandson of Cárthach named Donal Mór na-Curra MAC CÁRTHAIGH (d. 1205) had two sons"... ZS4598 and A5813. Pat’s results and John’s results are ZS4598+, and John’s separate SNP test result is A5813- (the two “sons” are mutually exclusive, so this negative result supports the two positives). ZS4598+ means we descend from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donal_Gott_MacCarthy Domnall Got Mac Carthaig (King of Desmond d.1251 and Lord of Carbery 1242 - 1251. d 1251)]. Our current R-L21 Group B tree identifies several lines for which SNP ZS4598 is positive but ZZ50 is negative. On the basis of the above, these are seen as likely representing the progeny of sons of Donal Gott other than Donal Maol, and / or of brothers of Donal Maol, not all of whom may appear in historical records. If the relatively rare 15 to 14 mutation at DYS 485 truly occurred just the once, as conjectured in the current tree, this branch could well be that of Clann Tadhg Ilen (aka Tadhg Dall) since this line was reported as having a numerous posterity. Therefore, our paternal line are (2nd or more likely 3rd) 'cousins' of MacCarthy Reagh, branching off the stem a few generations before the first MacCarthy Reagh. We share Donal Gott MacCarthy as a paternal ancestor. The present best guess is that we descend from Tadhg Dall (blind Timothy) aka Tadhg Ilen, suggesting the homeland in the 14th century was around Skibbereen (see [https://mccarthydna.files.wordpress.com/2017/10/mccarthy-group-b-and-r-z16526-phylogenetic-tree-2017-10-08.pdf Figure 2] excerpt attached Image #2). Pat’s results show he is ZZ50- (here a negative result is as important as a positive one). Supposition based on phylogeny: Those who are negative for ZZ50 could only have descended from brothers of Donal Maol (of which we know five) or brothers of Donal Caomh (of which we know only one; but others may have gone unrecorded in the histories. Two other testers (one being George McCarthy) are close matches to Pat with two shared STR mutations (in the past 800 years or so, that is). These are the very rare 16 to 17 at DYF 395Sa1b *plus* a quite rare 15 to 14 at DYS 485. Thus, we can assume that we share ancestry up to approx the 14th century. Our branches are now adjacent in the tree (see image #1) awaiting a possible amalgamation into a single branch in the future! NOTE: In view of the number of STR mutations that we do NOT share, our shared ancestry will not be as recent as paper records can trace. However, despite the constant upheavals in County Cork over the centuries, it is claimed that some families farmed the same patch for many centuries. Pat's Big-Y results show five SNPs not seen in any other kit on the Group B / Z16526 tree: * SNP @ 2866921 (G>A) * SNP @ 15267781 (T>C) * SNP @ 15278336 (T>C) * SNP @ 15819821 (C>T) * SNP @ 23167581 (A>G) John's Y-DNA111 results show he differs from Pat at CDYa and DYS 712: {| border="1" | test || John || Pat |- | CDYa || 36-39 || 37-39 |- | DYS 712 || 18 || 19 |} The CDYa/b are the fastest mutating of all 111 STR sites on the y-chromosome, i.e changes are seen more often here than anywhere else (but still only about once in 30 generations on average). DYS 712 comes next in frequency of occurrence of changes. John and Patrick McCarthy also participated in the extension of STR testing from 111 to 125 markers with the new markers offered by YSeq: {|border="1" class="wikitable sortable" | STR ||# || John's Results || Patrick's Results |- | 7958 DYR || 112 || 13 || 13 |- | 7958 DYR || 157 || 13 || 13 |- | 7958 DYR || 33 || 14 || 14 |- | 7958 DYR|| 76 || 14 || 14 |- | 7958 DYS|| 518 || 43 || 43 [[could be interesting]] |- | 7958 DYS || 614 || 17 || 17 [[not seen in others]] |- | 7958 DYS || 626 || 27 || 27 |- | 7958 DYS || 644 || 17 || 17 |- | 7958 DYS || 684 || 58 || 58 |- | 7958 DYS || 711 || 65 || 65 |- | 7958 DYS || 713 || 43 || 43 |- | 7958 DYS || 723 || 20 || 20 |- | 7958 DYS || 727 || 15 || 15 |- | 7958 DYS|| 728 || 18 ||18 |} Per Nigel McCarthy: Please realise we are at an early stage with use of this data, but, with nearly all the data from the first clutch of orders now in, I have indicated in the attached file (see Image 2: "Y111 to Y125 markers results") what looks likely to be the scoring for your common ancestor, Dónal Mór na Curra Mac Cárthaigh, died ca. 1206. (See [https://mccarthydna.files.wordpress.com/2017/10/mccarthy-group-b-and-r-z16526-phylogenetic-tree-2017-10-08.pdf Fig. 2 and / or the R-L21 Group B tree] on our Wordpress website.). My only real doubt is whether DYS 518 might not be 42 instead of 41. Results: John and Patrick McCarthy are, for now, the sole ZZ50- (i.e. ZZ50 negative) representatives in Group B3 (Donal Gott Mac Cárthaigh's progeny). The 17 at DYS 614 is clearly a mutation from 18 in the past 700 years or so, so adds to the SNPs and other STR mutations we have already identified as pertinent to this period for the subgroup in which John appears to belong. The 43 at DYS 518 looks like a mutation from 41 (or maybe 42), and may also be relevant. It cannot be considered as a match with kit 338137 as they are on different branches of the tree, as determined irrefutably by SNP testing. (It should also be noted that the scoring of this locus DYS 518 is not simple, as it summates various components).

George has three not seen in anyone else on the Group B / Z16526 tree: * SNP @ 2888691 (C>G) * SNP @ 16188366 (G>T) * SNP @ 22439831 (C>T) (Note 14: zone which is unreliable for reporting) ---- Regarding position 13511245: Seven other McCarthys on our Group B / Z16526 tree have a clear (100%) T (= no mutation) reading, with plenty of reads in the test. Patrick and George's two kits show a mix of Cs and Ts being read at this location according to the .vcf file. Patrick's BAM file (the computerised interpretation of Patricks's test) indicates 67 C and 271 T reads. So here we would say that, despite the reservations, there is a "phylogenetic consistency" in bracketing the two kits. If it is a shared y-chromosome SNP, it will have occurred six or seven centuries ago: we know this from Patrick's, John's and George's Y-DNA111 tests. If it were this old and occurring on another chromosome, it would be most unlikely to be identified in autosomal testing. However the sequence around this position is similar to that found on several other chromosomes, so the computer may be misaligning it, i.e the "C" reads may really be of a mutation the samples both have on another chromosome. If it is George and Patrick, rather than George and Sheila, who are showing up as autosomal matches, it may be we are actually seeing something at one of these other chromosomes which corresponds to the autosomal match, and not something at / around y chromosome position 13511245 at all. SNPs, when identification is clear-cut, are irrefutable and invaluable; but identifying them is not always an exact science. I have also checked position 2888691 in Patrick's BAM file and there is no mutation there, so that is not a match with George. ---- From Nigel McCarthy (Jan 13, 2017): Florence (as a peculiar anglicisation of Finghín - pronounced Fin(y)een), is a very common name among McCarthys. No less peculiar is Cormac being anglicised as Charles. Eugene comes from Eoghan so at least there is some spelling similarity even if pronunciation became more akin to the variants Owen or Eoin. All the ancient annals and histories claim that the MacCarthys were, by the 12th century, the principal family descending from the Eóghanachta, named for Eoghan Mór (Eoghan the great). But if so they would be in McCarthy R-L21 Group A. We have shown that this is not valid.

[[Category: Outer Cove, Newfoundland Colony]] [[Category: Outer Cove, Dominion of Newfoundland]] [[Category: Outer Cove, Newfoundland]] [[Category: Logy Bay-Middle Cove-Outer Cove, Newfoundland]] ===About=== The present day town, Logy Bay-Middle Cove-Outer Cove, near St. John's Newfoundland, was an amalgamation of three adjacent communities. [[Space:Logy Bay Newfoundland|Logy Bay]], [[Space:Middle Cove Newfoundland|Middle Cove]], and Outer Cove. ==History== The area was within the boundaries of lands granted in 1610 to the London and Bristol Company, and it is possible that the sites were used by fishermen in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Permanent settlement did not begin, however, until the early 1800s. The Irish migrants who settled in Logy Bay, Outer Cove and Middle Cove were attracted to the region because of the good farm land and easy access to the fishing grounds between Torbay Point and Flat Rock Point. The inhabitants mostly fished and farmed for their own use, but after a rudimentary road to St. John's was built in 1827 — and improved in 1841 — some people were likely selling surplus produce in St. John's. The predominantly Roman Catholic population was ministered, from St. John's until the mid-1800s, when a parish was established in Torbay. Outer Cove and Middle Cove became part of that parish, while Logy Bay remained within the jurisdiction of the Cathedral parish in St. John's. In 1914 St. Francis of Assisi parish was established and five years later a church was built in Outer Cove to serve that community. Middle Cove and Logy Bay. ===Early Families=== In 1836 there were 58 houses and 62 boats in Outer Cove, and a population of 305 — all but 15 of them Roman Catholic. The population was 246 in 1869, consisting of 32 farming and three fishing families. Locally produced fresh milk was sold in the 1830s according to members of the Pine family whose ancestors still raised dairy cattle in 1991. Outer Cove has gained a degree of fame for its rowing crews. A men's crew established a record at the 1901 St. John's Regatta on Quidi Vidi Lake which lasted until 1981. Early family names were Kinsella, O'Brien, O'Rourke, O'Neill, Pine, Power, Walsh, Stack, Roche, Doran, Whelan, Fox, Hickey, McCarthy, Griffin and Carroll. ===Resources=== * [[Special:Whatlinkshere/Space:Outer_Cove_Newfoundland|What links to this page.]] * [http://ngb.chebucto.org/SJEast/index-sje.shtml Newfoundland's Grand Banks Site, St. John's East District] * [http://sites.rootsweb.com/~cannf/tor.htm Newfoundland and Labrador Genweb, Torbay regional sources] == Sources ==

I believe that Rhoda Lake (above) is Rhoda Letitia McNamara and she married Slater T. Cowart of Virginia and is buried there. There is another Slater Cowart buried in the Cowart Family Cemetery in Virginia, but this one appears to be a nephew of Slater T. If anyone has additional or correct information, please send it to me and I will correct this page. John LeCompte Reeder, as of 2011 ==Notes== Apparently when John Stewart McNamara and Lavina Lovey Lake had another baby girl in 1813 they named her after her deceased sister who died in 1808. This is not an uncommon practice. All records through DAR and SAR has Lovey's name = Lavina "Lovey" Lake. The Lovey might be in nickname for Letitia but haven't found any reference to Letitia in any documents. Wife of Edward Staplefort; on 15 FEB 1805 STAPLEFORT, Edward married McNAMARA, Zepporah. Daughter of Col John Stewart and Letitia "Lovey" LAKE McNamara. I don't know for sure who authored the original report, but i think it was one ''John LeCompte Reeder'' in 2014.

[[Category: North Carolina Quakers]] This page contains extensive history of the Overman line of Quakers. == The Overmans == : The German Ancestry of Ephraim Overman: : : JACOB OVERMAN was born in 1652 in England/Germany. He died on 8 Jul 1715 in Perquimans County, North Carolina. ??Some references state that Jacob was born in Saxony, Germany. ??Sailed in 1667 to Maryland on the "Thomas and Mary", Captain Thomas Harwood, He was indentured for 6 years to Richard Gorsuch, Talbot Co MD. By 1677 he was in Connecticut. In 1679 he bought 4 acres in Wethersfield from Thos. Wickam Jr. Hannah died in 1692. In 1694 Jacob got a 400 acre grant in North Carolina and moved his new wife Dorothy and the children of Hannah's to Pasquotank County. He and children became Quakers. ??First known document naming Jacob Overman is the sale of Headrights by the mariner Thomas Harwood to Charles Calvert, 11 March 1667. Maryland Archives. Some of the children are in the Quaker records - Jacob Jr, Ephraim, & Charles. The names of six of his children were listed to get the NC grant. ??The Wethersfield records have the births of the children of Jacob and Hannah. The birthdates as listed here are the Old Style dates. ??The Carolina Colonial Records: 29 Nov. 1694. Jacob Overman proved his right [headright - 50 acres per person] to four hundred acres of land by the Importation of Jacob Overman [himself], Dorathy Overman [his new wife], Jacob Overman Junior, Thos. Overman, Ephrim Overman, Margery Overman, Charles Overman, and Anne Overman, and Warrant Given. Children missing from this list are John, Joseph and Hope, who would have all been quite young, Hope only two years old. Perhaps these are children that did not survive. ??CD "Genealogical Records: Early NC Settlers 1700s-1900s" Rent Rolls of Albemarle County prior to 1700: Jacob Overman, 468 acres. ??Dorothea Porter, 2nd wife, was the daughter of Thomas Porter and Sarah Hart. ??EARLY RECORDS OF NC, VOL. II; Dr. Stephen E. Bradley, Jr. ?104/94 Will of John Tomlinson dated 14 Oct 1697; probate 2 Mar 1697. Wife Elizabeth, Children: John, Elizabeth, William & Mary. Wit: Jacob Overman, Dorothy Overman. ?147/123 Will of Magdalen (X) Calley dated 22 Dec 1699. Wit: Henry White, Jacob Overman ??Pasquotank Monthly Meeting in Pasquotank Co NC contain some records of this family. Jacob Overman is on an early membership list. The Pasquotank MM drew members from both Pasquotank & Perquimans Co. ??Will of Jacob Overman of Pasquotank. Probate 12 Sep 1715. Wife Dorothy. Son Ephraim, daughter Margaret Mackey, son Charles, children of my son Jacob deceased. William Haig and William Mackey, Executors. Test: Robt Wheatley, Thos. Woodley. ?CD "Genealogical Records: Early NC Settlers 1700s-1900s" : : Some genealogists have suggested that Hannah was Hannah Walcott citing marriage and death records. JACOB OVERMAN and HANNAH ?WALCOTT were married on 25 October 1677 in Wethersfield, Hartford County, Connecticut. HANNAH ?WALCOTT died on 22 February 1692 in Wethersfield, Hartford County, Connecticut. Hannah died two days after the birth of daughter Hope. Hannah's surname is also seen as Wiswall. There is no proof for either name. ??A birth date for Hannah is often seen, but it is for Hannah Wolcott, daughter of Henry & Sarah (Newberry) Wolcott, who was b. 8 Mar 1654 in Windsor CT and died unmarried 4 Sep 1683. This could not be the same Hannah. ??About 1670 in Boston there was a Thomas Overman, 3rd husband of Hannah Wiswall. When Hannah's father Elder John Wiswall died in 1687, his will named his daughter as Hannah Overman. At the time Thomas & Hannah Wiswall Overman were married in Boston, Jacob Overman was in Maryland serving a 6-year indenture to Richard Gorsuch. : : So all we can say right now is that his first wife and mother of the Overmans in North Carolina was named Hannah, and that she died in Weathersfield, Connecticut on 22 Feb 1692. Hannah and Jacob Overman had: Jacob (1678-1715), Thomas (1679), Ephraim (1681-1732), Margerie (1683), John (1684), Charles Church (1686-1755), Joseph (1688), Ann (1690), Hope (1692). : : Legal records of property and slave ownership: No. 95.

Suit brought by Jacob OVERMAN against William Wilson SAWYER for selling a turkey cock to a slave named Potter, the property of OVERMAN, without his permission. 20 Dec 1712/13. : : EPHRAIM OVERMAN, the son of Jacob and Hannah, was born on 9 March 1681 in Wethersfield, Hartford County, Connecticut. He died on 2 September 1732 in Pasquotank County, North Carolina. ? Ephraim liberated to marry Sarah Belman on 13 March 1708. (in the Pasquotank MM minutes 1708,3,13. Ephraim left free to marry Sarah Belman His brother Charles was left free to marry Ann Symons 1711, 8, 18.). SARAH BELMAN (daughter of JOHN BELMAN and SARAH WILSON) was born on 28 Jun 1688; John Belman immigrated to Perquimans from Surry County, Va. The marriage of John Belman and Sarah daughter of Robert and Ann Wilson on 8-19-1687, is among the earliest of the Perquimans Friends Meeting The fourth wedding recorded in Perquimans minutes, 19 Aug 1687, was that of Sarah Wilson and John Belman (our direct ancestors.) Among the witnesses were Robert, Anne, and Isaac Wilson. Records of Perquimans and Pasquotank supply data on several Belman and Wilson descendants, among whom was Sarah Belman, born 28 June 1688, who married Ephraim Overman in 1708 (our direct ancestors.) ? : : The Pasquotank (or Symons Creek) Monthly Meeting was set up soon after and the meeting was at Henry White’s house, May 7, 1698. . Here Ephraim Overman married Sarah Belman. : : John Belman was on one of the first juries in Perquimans County to hear a case of a litigious couple. John Belman received interest in the estate of Ann Wilson,” widow, & Relict of Robert Wilson Dec’d, doth assign interest in Estate, both Real, & Personal unto John Belman & Isaac Wilson (her son-in-law and son) jointly to possess, & Enjoy.” 11-5mo-1701. Robert Wilson in his will Perq Prect, p Jan 11, 1696 names his gr-children, Sarah & Ester Belman. Esther Belman m ---Turner, at a meeting in Pasquotank Co., They were allowed to be “free of each, other,” & charged by the Quakers, “not to let it happen again.” John Belman made his will Perquamin County Oct 1740, names as only legatees, wife Mary & daughter Sarah. After this the Belman family disappear from the records in Perquimans Co. Probably the male line died out, or they moved to parts unknown.” (from History of Perquimans County) On the rent rolls proper to 1700 John Belman has 280 acres on the Sound of Perquimans County. (from History of Perquimans County: as compiled from records found there and elsewhere: abstracts of deeds from 1681 through the Revolution) : : Ephraim owned 40 acres by patent from John Lord Cartaret, 200 acres sold to him by Stephen Scot and 104 acres once owned by Lawrence Keaton descended to his brother Zacharaiah and sold to Ephraim Overman. It was located on the SW side of Pasquotank River.

Attested before Nathaniel Hall on 9 Nov 1732. ? : : Quakers in colonial North Carolina : : Quakers were some of the first settlers to move to North Carolina, because the colony had established religious freedom as early as 1672. Although the Church of England was the official religion of North Carolina, there were few attempts to set up Anglican churches and congregations in North Carolina until the 1700s. This gave Quakers several years to build communities and establish their presence in the political life of the young colony. Most Quaker communities flourished in the northeast corner of the colony, near the Dismal Swamp and the Virginia border. Later, in the mid-1700s, Quakers would migrate from Pennsylvania to the Piedmont area at the middle of the colony. : : Until the 1760s, Quakers were active in North Carolina politics. One reason for their involvement was that Quakers, unlike many other colonists, lived close to one another and built towns and communities. Many people moved to North Carolina alone and lived isolated lives on farms miles away from neighbors. Quakers moved to North Carolina to be close to fellow believers and to escape the persecution they had faced in England and Massachusetts. They had common goals and concerns and often presented a common voice to the government of the colonies. : : During the first fifty years of British settlement in North Carolina, Quakers held a number of public offices and made up a large portion of the elected representatives in the General Assembly. One Quaker, John Archdale, became Governor of North Carolina from 1695-6. As more and more Europeans came to North Carolina, though, Quakers became a smaller minority and had less political influence. : : Their belief in non-violence would also become a political problem for Quakers. Throughout the eighteenth century, colonists fought different battles against the French, Indian enemies, and finally the British. Many colonists felt that Friends benefited from the sacrifices made by other colonists and yet refused to participate in the financial or human cost of warfare. As a result of their pacifist beliefs, Quakers lost their political influence in colonies such as Pennsylvania and North Carolina. : : ?On 15 September of 1711 Ephraim Overman condemned for his misconduct. [He has assisted an officer and defended himself with weapons.] : : 1711 was a troubled time for Quakers in N.C. In 1672 George Fox, founder of the Society of Friends visited Albemarle county later broken up into Chowan, Currituck, Pasquotank, and Perquimans counties, and established the Friends. For several decades it was the only organized religion in the area. In 1694 John Archdale, a Quaker, was appointed governor and appointed Friends to high places. The Anglicans protested and in 1700, Henderson Walker, the new governor, convinced the General Assembly to pass a vestry act establishing the church of England as the colony’s official church, to be supported by taxes to be levied upon the colonists. He also insisted that colonists take oaths of loyalty to Queen Ann. The Quakers are forbidden to swear oaths and offered to affirm but the Anglican powers refused this and barred all Quakers from public office. In 1705 Thomas Cary was named governor and he also attacked the Quakers. The Quakers sent a representative to England to secure his removal, but on returning from England found the head of the governor’s council to be even more Anglican than Cary so refused to give the order to remove Cary. Cary, seeing which way the wind was blowing switched his allegiance to the Quakers and he managed to oust the president of the council from the governorship in 1708. Cary and the Quaker party dominated the politics of the colony until 1711. In 1711 Edward Hyde assumed the governorship and proved hostile to Quakers immediately. Hyde declared Cary in open rebellion and determined to seize Cary by force. Hyde found Cary fortified in the plantation home of a former governor. Hyde retired. Cary then declared himself the true governor and fitted out a brigantine to attack Hyde. Meanwhile , Governor Alexander Spottswood of Virginia decided to come to the aid of Hyde. A company of royal marines were sent, which unnerved Cary’s followers. Cary was seized and sent in chains to England. All this turmoil disrupted the area and a severe drought ruined crops in 1711. On top of that, the summer of 1711 was marked by a yellow fever epidemic. Shortly after the death of John Lawson in 1711, the Tuscarora chief Hancock organized a force of 500 warriors to drive out the colonists. On the morning of 23 September 1711, small raiding parties began assaulting plantations near Bath. The colonists, who had not anticipated bloodshed, were low on supplies and ammunition. Moreover, they were left with no time to retaliate: a small band of Tuscarora would approach each isolated plantation in their everyday manner, then attack without warning. They slew both men and women, children and adults, and often mutilated the bodies of their victims. Three days of carnage claimed the lives of 130 settlers and reduced the countryside to ashes and ruins. : : In response to the attacks, Governor Edward Hyde convinced the State Assembly to pass a bill to draft all men between the ages of 16 and 60, but even this measure proved insufficient because food and weapons were scarce and because the Quaker settlers refused to bear arms. Hyde sent to Virginia for assistance, but the Virginians would not advance their troops beyond the state line unless North Carolina would promise to surrender tracts of land along the border. Refusing to accept such political blackmail, Hyde solicited aid from South Carolina. : : Without asking for concessions , the South Carolina government sent Col. John Barnwell, a veteran Indian fighter, with a force of 30 white officers and 500 Native Americans from an array of South Carolina tribes, including the Wateree, Congaree, Waxhaw, Pee Dee, Appalachee, and Yamasee. Having to travel over 300 miles through the wilderness, Barnwell didn’t arrive until January 1712. Reinforced by 50 North Carolina militiamen, Barnwell forced the Tuscarora to retreat to a fort in Greene County, where they eventually surrendered and released their prisoners. This victory, however, did not end the Tuscarora War. Moreover, all involved found themselves dissatisfied. North Carolina expected Barnwell to defeat the Tuscarora completely, while South Carolina expected some sort of repayment. And some South Carolina officers retained Tuscarora prisoners to sell as slaves, a breach of treaty that led to renewed discontent and precipitated a second wave of Tuscarora attacks the following summer. When the new attacks came, Governor Hyde was dead from the yellow fever epidemic. Many settlers abandoned the colony and others huddled in garrisons. The new governor turned to South Carolina and in 1712 a small group of whites with 1,000 Indian allies killed 900 Tuscarora effectively ending the tribe and forcing the remainder to emigrate to New York. : : Another ancestor, John Small (c.1639-1700), was a Virginia Quaker whose family was among the waves of Quakers who scurried down to North Carolina to escape the wrath of Virginia's governor William Berkeley. A faithful servant of Charles I, "a King's man to his autocratic fingertips" as one historian writes, Berkeley suppressed all dissent from the Church of England, even after Cromwell came to power. By 1660, he'd succeeded in getting the Virginia legislature to pass a law requiring the imprisonment of all Quakers until they left the colony. He stayed in office until his death in 1677. : : The Female Line of the Overmans : : Ephraim Overman son of Isaac married Rachel Small daughter of Obediah Small on 7-6-1780. (Pasquotank Monthly Meeting in Hinshaw, p.111) : : Lydia’s mother, Rachel Bundy Small, was the daughter of Obediah Small and Lydia Bundy. : : ?Coming probably from Worcestershire, England, to Massachusetts, William Bundy and wife, Elizabeth appeared first in Rhode Island, where they purchased 200 acres of land in 1663. In less than six months, they sold the land and William and Elizabeth were among the first emigrants from New England to North Carolina.? ?William purchased 200 acres of land in what is now South Kingston, RI, May 1, 1663. Twenty acres was laid out as a house lot, 'and he hath built upon it'. Evidently William remained in possession of the land only five or six months when he sold it on October 27, 1663 to Jirah Bull, the "Fearless Quaker" who was one of the first Quakers to settle in Narrahansett County, RI. The deed is signed by William Bundy and "X", the mark of Elizabeth Bundy. The deed states that, "I, William Bundy, late Narrahansett, now bound for Carolina do assign to Jirah Bull...." The document thus proves that William Bundy was married to Elizabeth before October 27, 1663 the date of the deed, and that both left Rhode Island for Carolina about that time, and were certainly among the first settlers from New England to North Carolina.? : : The Eight Lord Proprietors had, by 1665, outlined a plan by which they proposed to administer the civil affairs of the territory. Southeastern Virginia, which was adjacent to the Albemarle Region of Carolina to which the Bundys had come, was already settled. In the 1663 charter, Charles II gave it to the Eight Lord Proprietors. Bundys and other Quakers took out patents for their new land. The Bundys settled on plantations reaching out from both banks of Little River, that forms a natural boundary between Pasquotank County and Perquimans County, NC. Albemarle County was abolished in 1729, when each of the four precincts, Perquimans, Pasquotank, Currituck and Chowan became counties.? ?William Bundy was a cordwainer by trade. He was the original Quaker Bundy in NC, And a member of the first Quaker organization in Perquimans Precinct, which met at the home of the members. : : William's wife, Elizabeth, died March 4, 1676. : : Seven years later, at a quarterly meeting held at the home of Christopher Nicholson, William Bundy and Mary Peirce published their intention of marriage. They were married at her home, December 15, 1683 (Perquimans MM p.38 Hinshaw V.I). : : William Bundy is recorded as being a witness at several weddings in 1680. His signature appeared on a remonstrance, dated September 25, 1679, which was addressed to the Duke of Albemarle by the Quakers. The court records show that he assigned to Mary Scott all his interests to an Indian named, Sanders, April 6, 1680. He is listed among the Quakers who were sentenced and imprisoned for refusing to bear arms, serving a six months term in 1680. : : He served as one of the justices of a court held for the Precinct of Perquimans at the home of Mary Scott, the first Monday in January 1690-91. In every precinct the court consisted of a judge and four justices. To be an eligible candidate for justice, a man must have been an inhabitant of the precinct and own 300 acres of land. : : William Bundy had Mary (1665-1694), Caleb (1667-1721), William (1671-1700) and Samuel (1676-1740). Samuel Bundy, son of William, was a farmer and a Quaker. : : Samuel Bundy, Sr. was often called Samuel "The Planter". He is mentioned inthe rent rolls of Albemarle (mid 1690s) as having 110 acres. (Hathaway 3:208) : : Will filed Jul 1740 in Pasquotank Co, North Carolina (p. 86,87) : : At the age of 20 he received a grant of 110 acres in 1694. : : He married first Tamar Symons Oct. 5, 1696 at the house of Henry White.

Spouse: Ann NICHOLSON Birth: 8 Feb 1687/1689, Perquimans Co, NC Death: 16 Sep 1743, Pasquotank Co., North Carolina Marr: 11 May 1721, Perquimans MM, Perquimans Co.In 1698 Samuel Bundy and William Bundy go to court over a land dispute. William received an additional grant of 351 acres on the Little River in 1716. : : He married Ann Nicholson, daughter of Christopher Nicholson and Ann Atwood, on March 3, 1721 at Perquimans County, North Carolina. Their children were Gideon , Samuel, Abraham, Aaron, Lydia and Christopher. : : He wrote his will on Jan. 6, 1737 at Pasquotank County. : : Samuel Bundy requested permission for his 16 year old son, Gideon, to marry in 1739. He also received another land grant of 588 acres that same year. : : He died on March 14, 1740 at Pasquotank County, North Carolina, at the age of 65. ? ?Samuel's will dated, January 6, 1737, probated, July 1740 in Pasquotank County, NC. mentions as follows: Friend Thomas Nicholson, Sons William, Abraham, Gideon, and Josiah. daughter Jane, wife of Benjamin Pike, Wife Ann, Cousin Samuel Bundy, Executors Ann Bundy (wife) and Thomas Nicholson, Witnesses John Nixon, Phineas Nixon and Joseph Robinson. : : Christopher Nicholson, father of Ann, was one of the Quakers persecuted by the Puritans of Massachusetts. As it happened about the time that William Leddra was put to death, one Elizabeth Nicholson and her two sons, Christopher and Joseph, were charged with the death of her husband and their father Edmund Nicholson, who was found dead in the sea; and information being given that these people did sometimes show love to those they called cursed Quakers, they were all three fetched from their habitation at Salem and carried to Boston, and were tried for their lives merely on suspicion; but nothing of murder was proved against them; yet the mother was fined a great sum, and her two sons were sentenced to stand under the gallows certain hours, with ropes about their necks, and to be whipped in the market place, which was performed accordingly. And because these young men were not daunted, priest Wilson standing by, said, "Ah, cursed generation" And at Salem they were whipped also, which was done so mercilessly that one of the young men sunk down, or died away under the torture, though he was raised up and came to life again. By this we may see how these New England persecutors were become inured to excessive severity. : : He was at Marblehead by 1644, left 5 pounds in the 1646 will of George Pollard, and was living at Marblehead in 1661. : : On 22 Oct 1662 when Christopher was 24, he first married Hannah REDNAP, daughter of Joseph REDNAP, II & Mrs. Joseph REDNAP, in Lynn, Essex, Mass. Born in 1642 in Lynn, Essex, Mass. Hannah died in Berkeley Pct. Perquimans Co., NC on 2 Dec 1678, she was 36. It is unknown when they went to North Carolina but they were at Perquimans Monthly Meeting, Society of Friends, prior to 1678 when Hannah died on 2 December of that year; they had seven children together.? ?Christopher married second to Ann Atwood at the house of Francis Toms in 1688; eight years before his death. Theirs was the first marriage entry in the minutes of the Perquimans Monthly Meeting, Society of Friends. This couple had six children. The name of Atwood, is listed among the twenty-three persons from whom 2150 acres of land were conveyed to Robert Johnson for bringing them over from England. The deed is dated "23rd of April 1681, "and the land was situated in the Isle of Wight County, Virginia. : : Ann Nicholson Bundy was widowed by the death of Samuel Bundy on 14 Mar 1740 at Pasquotank County, North Carolina. ? She must have been an independent and high spirited lady. ?Ann Bundy, relict of Samuel, “was disowned for keeping a bachellour, Abraham Hendrix, whom she desired to marry, in her household”; household consisting of herself and young son, Abraham. On Oct 1743, she married out of unity, so reported, but her will dated 16 Nov 1743 was proved in Dec. 1744 as Ann Bundy, widow of Samuel. She died after 16 Nov 1743 at Pasquotank County, North Carolina.? ?An abstract of Ann Nicholson's will reads: December 1744. Pasquotank County. Sons: Gideon (wife Miriam), Abraham. Granddaughter: Lydia Bundy. Executors. Gideon and Abraham Bundy (sons). Witnesses: Jacob Overman , Abraham Hendrick. : : Since Gideon Bundy was only 16, his father, Samuel requested permission for him to marry in 1739. He married Miriam Bogue, daughter of William Bogue and Eleanor (Ellenor) Perisho, on 3 Aug 1739 at Perquimans MM, Perquimans County, North Carolina. : : In June 1755, Gideon was chosen to be an overseer at the Pasquotank Monthly Meeting. : : He died on 17 Apr 1762 at Pasquotank County, North Carolina, at age 39. : : Gideon Bundy’s wife Miriam Bogue born 1760-3-11 Perquimans, N.C. died 1762-3-4 Pasquotank, N.C. was the daughter of William Bogue and Eleanor/Elinor Perisho. : : Elinor/Eleanor/Elle nder Perisho’s ancestors : : James Perisho (1645 Brittany, France-1678) married Hannah Phelps (1654 Salem, Essex, Mass.-1688 Perquimans) Other records suggest his wife was Hannah Hill. “Pe risho, James m. Hannah Hill (Col records) & had issue: Ellener b. Sept 16, 1673 and James b. Nov 25, 1676.” (History of Perquimans p.307) their daughter Eleanor Perisho (16 Sep 1673 Perquimans, NC) married William Bogue (1665 Scotland, VA-1720 Perquimans, N.C.) at Jonah Phelps’ old plantation on 1689,6,5 (Perquimans MM). William Bogue like his wife was of French extraction and the son of Jane Clare and William Bogue Sr. The Bogue family lived near Auchencraw, Scotland. The name means “bow” and probably indicates the family were archers. : : James Perisho and Hannah his wife were said to be French Huguenots. “From more records I have, it states the following information was written about the family history by James Isom Parisho (b. 1884, d. 1954, my grandfather) He states: "The first Parisho to come to this country was in 1633, from France, near Paris, landing here in Georgia at Savannah. In later years, moved up the coast to North Carolina.......The Parisho family that left France, left as they were Huguenot's, French protestant in faith, members of the French Reformed Communion and thus were persecuted for their faith in France. The ship the Parisho brothers came over on or place sailed from is not known, however, the ship stopped at the Canary Islands and one brother caught a large fish, which fed those on board. This event is entered in the ships log. This last information being obtained from Luther Samuel Parisho, regarding the ship event. Also that the Parisho brothers went on into the Carolinas and later on into Kentucky. One of their grandchildren, name not known, supposedly married an Indian girl, but further information regarding this is not known." Those are the stories passed down, can't confirm or deny yet, just interesting reading.

In 1681, a land grant (in trust) was issued to James and his sister, Ellener. This was quite exceptional in early colonial times for a land grant to be left in trust to minors.. In 1690, James selected Stephen Manwarring (Spelled Manneringe) as his guardian. It was so ordered that he manage the orphan's plantation until he comes of age or cause it to be managed to the advantage of said orphan and give bond therefore. (Colonial Records of NC. 3-433) Apparently James could not write, for on many of the documents it says, (X)mark of James Perishaw (Various court records, Mar 1698 (CCR 187) : : James played a role in the development of the settlement. Court at Mr. James Oates October, 1698, with Hon'ble Thomas Harvey, Deputy Governor, presiding. The Court of January, 1699, came to order at the same house. John Parish was appointed overseer of the highway “from the ferry to Mr Whedbys path.” It is to be deplored that the “ferry” here spoken of is not better designated. In October of the same year a “Grate brig” is mentioned over the head of Perquimans River, where James Perrisho served as overseer. This bridge was probably the same later called “Newbys Bridge” and crossed the River beyond Belvidere going to Piney Woods. James Perisho gave his name to a creek used in boundary of land.

Samuel (27 Oct 1742/3) who on 9 Mar 1763 married Huldah Hill and had 5 children; 3. Sarah (4 Aug 1745), 4. Jehu (17 Jan 1748) married Lyda Griffin and had 2 children; 5. Miriam (27 Oct 1753), : : 6. Christopher (20 Apr 1758); Christopher Bundy served in the Revolutionary War, in 1782 he married Margaret Hill and had 9 children. The Bundy families went to western North Carolina and then to Ohio and Indiana about the same time as the Overmans. . Samuel and Huldah Bundy had moved west to the Center MM, N.C.; he married Huldah Hill on 1763,3,9 Center MM(where the births of Mary 12-1-1763, Miriam 1-11-1766, Margaret 4-3-1771, William 3-4-1777, Sarah 9-1-1780 are recorded). . His brother Christopher married Margaret Hill at the Center MM on 1782,10,2. Mary daughter of Samuel & Huldah, Pasquotank co., married John Albertson at the Center MM on 1783,3,23. They all moved to the Back Creek MM where Hulda Bundy died 9-29-1817.

Christoph er Bundy and his family requested certificates in 1818 to White Water MM, Indiana. So Bundy cousins are also moving to Whitewater MM, Indiana along with the Overmans. Christoph er Bundy was a fighting Quaker for he would receive a pension for his services during the Revolution in Wayne County, along with George Holman and Richard Rue. D.A.R. records describe his service. He enlisted while residing in Guilford Co., N.C., 1779, and served as private in Capt. Enoch Davis’ company, Col. Matthes Lock’s N.C. Regt.

All the meetings in the counties there are closely related by both ties of blood and organization. The same families which first settled Isle of Wight County, later moved on into Nansemond, and in the period 1660-63 almost every Quaker family sent members to become the first settlers of the state of North Carolina. Wheeler in his "History of North Carolina", says, "The first permanent settlement (i.e. in Perquimans Co.) was formed after the expulsion of the Quakers from Virginia in 1662". So one should not be surprised to find the same family names in all these places. : : " The children of John Small and Alce moved to North Carolina in 1736-37. And it can be assumed that this was after the death of the parents, as John, Benjamin and Thomas all appear in Quaker records in Perquimans County at that time. Joseph and wife Ann Owen do not appear in Quaker records in NC, but he died 1754-55 after writing his will in Chowan County. It is very unlikely that the children would all move away from aged parents before their death. I therefore place their death as circa 1735, likely Nansemond Co. VA since no record appears for them in NC" : : Excerpted from American Quaker Genealogy by William Wade Hinshaw, Vol.6 p.8?The first surviving record of a session of the Yearly Meeting is dated 1702, the seventh month. The representatives to this session were: Samuel Newton, Thomas Page, Richard Ratcliff, Isaac Ricks, Edward Thomas, John Bates, John Woodson, Joseph Pleasants, Nathan Newby, John Small, John Porter, William Scott Sr. , Robert Jordan, Henry Wiggs, John Murdor (Murdaugh), John Jordan, Daniel Sanbourne, Charles Fleming, Robert Hughts, Gerrard Robert Ellyson, Joseph Galister, Benjamin Small, James Bates, James Jordan, Matthew Jordan, John Pleasants, Thomas Lankford and Sameul Jordan. Daniel Sanbourne acted as clerk and Sarah Sanburn (Sanbourne) signed papers on behalf of the womens meeting and to signify their unity.??As this first session ends it is ordered that the care and the management of those things above mentioned is left to two friends of every monthly meeting: John Tuck and Sameul Cornwall for Surry, Jordan and Richard Ratcliff for Chuckatuck, John Small and Nathan Newby for Nansemond... and here it is written by the committee appointed to copy the minutes that the record is not further intelligible.......etc.??This record is very likely mention of John's two sons, Matt and Benjamin rather than the elder, but this is not proved or disproved.??"Quaker records prior to this were destroyed by fire. Fragments of the papers were copied, there were also original books which escaped the fire. The conclusion of this matter is: we accept the year 1672 as the year of the organization of the Virginia Yearly Meeting."?Whether John Small was a member of this congregation at that time is unknown, but for him to be elected a delegate in 1702 would indicate that he had a position within the organization sometime prior to that time.? : : B ack to North Carolina History : : The movement of Quakers out of Virginia and into the Dismal Swamp area of North Carolina was happening during the same period when the boundary line between North Carolina and Virginia was up for grabs. The North Carolina charter of 1663 was at apparent odds with the one of 1665; in question was a swath of territory about 30 miles deep from where the line currently is to the middle of the Albemarle Sound. The dispute wasn't settled until William Byrd's survey of 1728. The dispute had to do with differences of opinion on the location of Weyanoke Creek, which was supposed to be the boundary. The creek couldn't be found any more. Virginia claimed it was the same as Wiccon Creek, a tributary of the Chowan. North Carolina said it was the Nottoway River. But as William Boyd points out in an introduction to William Byrd's work, major questions of tobacco and trade routes were involved. : : A s early as 1679 Virginia had prohibited the importation of North Carolina tobacco, a condition that greatly retarded the economic development of the northeastern part of the province where the soil was well adapted to tobacco culture. If the boundary ran through Nottoway River, North Carolina tobacco could be shipped down that and other streams to Albemarle Sound and thence to points without the colony. : : A s the debate lingered on, in 1714, Governor Spotswood of Virginia, "claiming that North Carolina continued to grant lands in the disputed region and that 'loose and disorderly people daily flock there,' proposed that Virginia survey a line through the Nottoway River and North Carolina and one through Wiccon Creek, and that all settlers between those lines be removed." !! That didn't happen. When Charles Eden became governor of North Carolina, he managed to reach a compromise on the boundary. The line he proposed is the one that eventually, in 1728, was surveyed by a company including William Byrd II. : : I t's a more complicated story than that, but let me return to the Quakers in northern part of North Carolina. Because of this confusion, it appears that some of our ancestors may have "moved" to North Carolina simply by staying put. At any rate, by the late 1700s his father Benjamin Small was well established in Chowan County. On his death he left an estate of more than 500 acres and some 18 slaves. Josiah Small inherited about half of this, plus he had other holdings. By the time of the 1830 census, Josiah had 17 slaves. This Josiah Small was a cousin of Rachel Small who married Ephraim Overman. Rachel Small’s father, Obediah Small, was a brother of Benjamin Small. : : Q uakers were certainly better off in North Carolina. Under the Carolina Charter of 1663 (written largely by John Locke), "No person . . . shall be in any ways molested, punished, disquieted, or called into question for any differences in opinion or practice in matters of religious concernment, but every person shall have and enjoy his conscience in matters of religion throughout the province." : : Ephrim Overman, Yeoman, & Sarah his wife, for 160 English pounds paid by Henry & Arnold White Jun’r of afore’ sold 345a. on S.W. side of Little River Swamp, adjacent to Whi.

Records of Perquimans and Pasquotank supply data on several Belman and Wilson descendants, among whom was Sarah Belman, born 28 June 1688, who married Ephraim Overman in 1708. ??Ephraim was the son of Jacob and Hannah (Dorthea/Dorothy was Jacob's second wife - they had no children) Overman. Existing records have much to say of this family.

ABIGAIL OVERMAN. : : 12 CAROLINA QUAKERS - OUR HERITAGE OUR HOPE - 1672-1972 by Seth B Hinshaw and Mary Edith Hinshaw, page 23: "Abigail Pike - Pioneer Woman" During the seventeen-thirties John and Abigail Pike were living in the "Pasquotank Precient." Hearing that a new Meeting, Hopewell, had been established in Frederick Co., VA, they felt a concern to go and add their strength to the new Quaker settlement. Abigail was a minister. Almost hurriedly, so the story goes, they made ready for the journey. At this time they had two small children, Sarah and Anne. During the eleven years that they lived in the Hopewell community, the number of children increased to eight [in that Hopewell community were the Talbots our other Quaker relatives]. When a number of Quakers from Pennsylvania came through the Hopewell community headed toward the Piedmont section of North Carolina, once again John and Abigail Pike felt led to leave their home, and to start life all over again in a new settlement. In a few months a home was built on the bank of Cane Creek. In early 1751 when the youngest and tenth child, Nathan, was almost two, Abigail said to Cane Creek Friends, 'If Rachel Wright will go with me, we will attend Quarterly Meeting at Little River in Perquimans County and ask that a Meeting be set up here.' Friends concurred. Thus it was that these two women rode horseback two hundred miles through the wilderness to Quarterly Meeting, and made the return trip home safely, mission accomplished. Cane Creek Meeting was set up June 31, 1751. Abigail Pike next helped in the establishment of New Garden Meeting, thirty-five miles to the west, through more wilderness country. The direct descendants of this courageous pioneer woman are now scattered all across the state, and indeed all across the nation. The one-room log structure known as "the Abigail Pike house" was used as a classroom in the early days of the Sylvan Academy. : : "On page 15: 'John and Abigail Pike were two more of the early settlers. Abigail was a minister, and it was not unusual for them to travel to new places and lend their support to the establishment of new Friends communities and meetings. They had left Pasquotank County in eastern North Carolina in 1738 to travel to Frederick County, Virginia, to assist with the Hopewell Meeting, where they remained for eleven years (Griffin 'History' 2)'. ??"Continuing on the book says, 'It is possible that the Pikes heard about the new settlement on Cane Creek from families moving into the Hopewell area. Many of these families planned only to remain at Hopewell for a few years, then continue farther south. John and Abigail came to the Cane Creek settlement with their eight children about 1749. Their certificates of membership from Hopewell were placed with the Carver's Creek Meeting in Bladen County, North Carolina. This monthly meeting held the certificates of not only the Pikes but others in the settlement until the establishment of a monthly meeting at Cane Creek. This was an accepted practice of the day. Many Quaker pioneers, with their staunch faith, did not want to be away from the care of a monthly meeting even if that meeting were many miles away.' : : ?John Pike's occupation is listed at blacksmith / business overseer. He was liberated to marry by Pasquotank MM --9-4-1731, to Abigail Overman, Dau of Ephraim and Sarah Belman Overman. (Family records at Cane Creek MM, NC) John Pike was born 4-1-1702, Pasquotank co.

Orange Co., NC-- Will of John Pike ---will book A --page 176 dated 3-20-1771; proven August 1774 Wife: Abigail; John ---eldest son; Samuel." Abigail Pike, a minister in Society of Friends, was in the habit of riding out to the British army camps to preach to the soldiers. She was the only minister allowed within the lines, and she was not permitted to dismount, but preached from her saddle. : : One evening returning with a company friends from such a mission, they came to where the road forked, one branch going up past the "grave-yard" the other leading straight home. They were debating which to take, one had remarked that a ghost was to be seen every evening in the grave-yard. Abigail whipped up her horse saying. "We will go this way. I have long wanted to meet a ghost, shake hands with it and ask it, is it well with thee?" Abigail rode up to it and called back, "Come on Friends, it is only a big cobweb on a bush". from Genealogy of the Lee Family from William Lee of Ireland by T.J Morgan,?Edna Harvey Joseph, Rosa Lee et al c. 1930: Abigail had a set of Queensware (porcelain) dishes, very rare in those days. Tin and Pewter being in more common use. Some British soldiers, searching the house for food, overturned the cupboard. Abigail, seeing the disaster coming, cried, "oh, my dishes", ran with her apron outspread to catch them, saved but a single platter. This she requested to be handed down to the nearest relative named Abigail in memory of her. : : ii. : : Joseph OVERMAN was born on 1 Oct 1711 in Pasquotank County, North Carolina.

In the Pasquotank MM minutes in 1747,2,2 Isaac left free to marry Mary Evans. On the same day Isaac requested a certificate to Cape Fear. On 1747 11, 7 Mary, wife of Isaac, got a certificate to Cape Fear Friends. It appears that Cape Fear remained part of the Pasquotank Monthly Meeting.

In October, Sire John stopped at Charles Town on his way to Port Royal and found the colonists in desperate need of supplies. A ship sent to Virginia to relieve this need was wrecked on the return trip. Sir John left in December and never returned. War with the Indians and the indifference of the Lords Proprietors led to the migration of settlers out of the Cape Fear area and by the end of 1667 the site was deserted. Further settlement was not attempted for fifty years because of the closing of the Carolina land-office by the Lords Proprietors, the hostility of the Cape Fear Indians and the presence of pirates. In 1715 the estimated number of Cape Fear Indians was 206 people in five towns along the river. Following the defeat of major tribes in North Carolina, the Cape Fear Indians fled south. By 1720 most of the notorious pirates had been captured, including Stede Bonnet who with his ship had been taken in the mouth of the Cape Fear River. In May 1713, Barren Island (Bald Head) was granted to Landgrave Thomas Smith, and in 1725 Governor George Burrington began to distribute land along the Cape Fear for colonization. Many of the new settlers came from South Carolina because of the lower taxes in North Carolina. South Carolina planters settle along the Lower Cape Fear River and begin developing the rice and naval stores industries. They bring large numbers of enslaved people and a large, plantation-style slave system. Maurice Moore founded Brunswick Town on his grant on the west bank of the river and by June 1726, a map of the town was filed with the Secretary of the Province. The next year a ferry was in operation across the river. North Carolina becomes a royal colony when King George II purchases shares from seven of the eight Lords Proprietors. Only Earl Granville refuses to sell. Elizabeth City was started in 1722 but became significant only in 1764 when a law designating “the Narrows of Pasquotank River” as an inspection station for products from the rest of the colony and in the 1770s a ferry made it the main crossing between north and south. A grist mill also drew settlers to the city. : : A letter of Governor Burrington dated 1773 says he sent out Indian Guides and some of his men to mark a road to the middle of this Province from Virginia to Cape Fear Province River and to discover and view the land lying in those parts until then unknown to the English. Because of the war between England and Spain, Spanish ships harassed the area. In 1745 the General Assembly ordered the building of Fort Johnston but it wasn’t completed until twenty years later. In 1748 three Spanish ships entered the river and fired on Brunswick Town. The Spaniards landed and looted the town. The colonists counter-attacked, succeeded in sinking one ship and forced the Spaniards to retreat. The area developed rapidly during the next twenty years. When the Borough Charter of Wilmington was signed by Governor Dobbs in 1760, with John Sampson the first Mayor, the county population had reached about five thousand. North Carolina militia and Cherokee assist the British military in campaigns against the French and Shawnee Indians. The Cherokee decide to change sides after receiving ill treatment by the English, and they return home, where they eventually attack North Carolina colonists in the 1750s. The Quakers continue to have issues with the Anglican rulers who in 1741 forbid marriage ceremonies except those performed by Anglican clergy or “lawful” magistrates. : : 1754-1763 The French and Indian War was fought all along the frontier of North America. Cherokee raid the western Piedmont in 1759 and in 1760 attack and capture forts in the interior. The General Assembly had passed an act allowing residents to enslave captives (meaning native Americans who had been captured but treaties had promised their freedom; Indians would rather fight to the last man than be slaves). 1761: an army of British regulars, American militia, and Indian allies destroy Cherokee resistance. In 1763 King George tries to prevent encroachment by whites on treaty lands by a proclamation line in western North Carolina. In 1765 Parliament passes the Stamp Act and there are public protests; in 1766 the Stamp Act is repealed. Parliamen t then passes the Townshend Act imposing duties on luxury items. Again there are protests and a nonimportation movement. : : Orange County is the frontier. Orange County is established in an area of heavy immigration. It encompasses all or parts of the present-day counties of Alamance, Caswell, Chatham, Durham, Guilford, Orange, Person, Randolph, Rockingham, and Wake. Its county seat, Hillsborough, will become known as the “capital of the backwoods.” In 1768 the farmers in Orange County protest the excessive taxation and high handedness of the elite in politics; the protests lead to the Regulator movement. The Regulators are defeated in 1771. The Quakers probably sympathized with the grievances expressed by the Regulators and one of the Regulator leaders was a prominent Quaker in Cane Creek but he was disowned in 1764. Other Quakers were also disowned for refusing to pay taxes and for attending mass meetings of protest. In August 1774 the Revolutionary war starts. The serenity of Quaker life in the North Carolina back country (Guilford County) was soon shaken up by the approach of the War of the Regulation, which reached its climax in 1771, and, four years later, the American Revolution. In the main they took no part in the actual fighting, pleading their pacifist principles. However, after the Battle of Guilford Courthouse, they did aid in caring for the wounded, both American and British. The North Carolina Quakers seem to have suffered from fines and requisitions from both sides in the conflict. In 1777 North Carolina provided for an oath of allegiance and the penalty for refusing the oath was expulsion from the province. The Quakers refused to take the oath arguing that “we believed it to be unlawful for us, to be active in war and fighting with carnal weapons, as we conceive that the proposed affirmation approves of the present measures, which are carried on and supported by military force, we cannot engage or join with either party therein; being bound by our principles to believe that the setting up and pulling down kings and governments, is God’s peculiar prerogative, for causes best known to himself…We hope that you will consider our principles a much stronger security to any state than any test that can be required of us; as we now are and shall be innocent and peaceable in our several stations and conditions under this present state; and for conscience sake are submissive to the laws…” (Southern Quakers and slavery, by Stephen Beauregard Weeks, p.192) : : 1775,1,18. Friends appointed to provide that Mary, Nathan, and Benoni, orphans of Isaac, be bound out. Zadock and Gideon avoided this by heading west. Zadock (8 Dec 1765), Gideon (25 Aug 1768) head to the frontier. 1774,3,16 Zadok & Gideon, minor sons of Isaac birthright member, reported living at Orange MM. They probably joined their brother Obadiah who had joined the Cane Creek MM in Orange county in 1773,10,2 [Obadiah recrq]. Their sister Sarah also went to Cane Creek, Orange county. On 1774, 10, 1 Sarah daughter of Isaac received on certificate from Pasquotank MM [N.C.] dated 1774,7,20. 1776, 12, 7 Sarah gets certificate to New Garden MM (Guilford County). 1777,12,6 Obediah gets certificate to New Garden MM, N.C. One of the founding members of the Cane Creek MM was Abigail Pike , their aunt. The New Garden MM in Guilford County was set up in 1754. :

The history of this family branch (formerly Olst branch) takes place to a large extent on and around Het Overmarsch farm on Dingshofweg in the neighboring town of Overwetering in Olst. Het Overmars farm was located opposite the De Dingshof estate. The estate has disappeared, the farm is still there Ancestor Hendrick lived in 1716 at De Klumpershof in Duirsenhoek (Olst). Later between 1722 and 1730 Hendrick lived on Den Belt, also in Duirsenhoek. His son Egbertus Johannes lived in 1746 in Overwetering on farm Het Overmarsch.

The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) operates and distributes the electrical power for regional consumption. The dam is 1, 717 feet in length and holds back a lake that is 61 miles long with 653 miles of shoreline, with a 120-foot depth at its deepest point. The region surrounding Dale Hollow State Park is historically significant. Virginia set aside the south-central portion of Kentucky for a military reserve district for Revolutionary soldiers. The South of the Green River lands covered a great portion of southern Kentucky. Many Virginia soldiers of the Revolutionary War moved to what would become Clinton and Cumberland Counties. Cumberland County is also famous as the site of one of the first oil wells in the United States. ===Marinas=== Sunset Marina and Resort Address: 2040 Sunset Dock Rd, Monroe, TN 38573 Phone: (931) 864-3146 https://sunsetmarina.com/ Mitchell Creek Marina Address: 1260 Livingston Boat Dock Rd, Allons, TN 38541 Phone: (931) 823-6666 http://www.mitchellcreekmarina.com/ East Port Marina & Resort Address: 6429, 5652 Eastport Rd, Alpine, TN 38543 Phone: (931) 879-7511 http://eastport.info/ Dale Hollow Marina Address: 440 Dale Hollow Boat Dock Rd, Celina, TN 38551 Phone: (931) 243-2211 http://www.dalehollowmarina.com/ Holly Creek Resort & Marina Address: 2659 Holly Creek Rd, Celina, TN 38551 Phone: (931) 243-2116 http://hollycreekmarina.com/ Eagle Cove Resort & Marina Address: 5899 Eagles Cove Rd, Byrdstown, TN 38549 Phone: (931) 864-3456 http://eaglecoveresort.net/ ===Wineries=== Holly Ridge Winery 486 Oneal Rd, Livingston, TN 38570-5109 931-823-8375 ===Fishing=== STRIPERFUN GUIDE SERVICE/TN WALLEYE CHARTERS CAPTAIN JIM DURHAM 5661 WILLOW GROVE HWY ALLONS TN, 38541 phone: 931.403.2501 captainjim@striperfun.com http://www.striperfun.com ==County Resources== Upper Cumberland Human Resources http://www.uchra.com/ Children's Services Department https://www.tn.gov/news.childrens-services.html Natural Resources Conservation https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/site/national/home/ ResourceMFG-Employment agency in Livingston, Tennessee https://www.resourcemfg.com/ Casa of Overton County-Social services organization in Livingston, Tennessee Address: 106 W Henson St, Livingston, TN 38570 Phone: (931) 823-7323 ===County Records=== Overton County Court Clerk http://www.overtoncountytn.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=10&Itemid=91 Overton County Circuit Clerk http://www.overtoncountytn.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=37&Itemid=53 Overton Clerk & Masters Office http://www.overtoncountytn.com/ ===Church records=== Overton County Archives http://www.tennesseegenealogy.org/archives/overton_county_archives.htm ===Voter/Citizenship Records=== Election Commission http://www.overtoncountytn.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&itemid=40 Voter Registration Information Lookup https://tnmap.tn.gov/voterlookup/ ===Estate/Probate Records=== Tennessee Online Genealogy Records https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Tennessee_Online_Genealogy_Records ===Land/Homestead Records=== Courthouse Direct http://www.courthousedirect.com/PropertySearch/Tennessee/Overton ===Tax Lists=== https://sos.tn.gov/products/tsla/genealogical-fact-sheets-about-tennessee-counties-overton-county ===Military Service Records=== Overton County, TN Search military records in Overton County TN, click on link below. http://www.epodunk.com/cgi-bin/record-search-military.php?locIndex=12602 ===Census Records=== [[:Category: Overton County, Tennessee, Census Records| Overton County, Tennessee, Census Records]] https://www.census-online.com/links/TN/Overton/ ==See also== Overton County, Tennessee: Family History & Genealogy, Census, Birth, Marriage, Death Vital Records & More http://www.linkpendium.com/overton-tn-genealogy/ Visiting the Library & Archives https://sos.tn.gov/products/tsla/visiting-library-archives ==Sources== Overton County KINFolk interested in the Overton Newsletter that comes out 4 times per year.

The family moved to 12 Helmside, Oxenholme when Frank was just 2, with Edmund being employed on the railway first as a yardsman and then as a shunter. Frank enlisted at Glasgow and served as a Private in the 8th Battalion of the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles). He died at Gallipoli on 8 June 1915. His name is recorded on the Helles Memorial, Turkey but not on the Natland memorial. ---- '''Alexander Cragghill (1899-1918)''' Alexander, born in 1899, lived at 19 Helmside, Oxenholme and was the second of two sons born to William Cragghill and his second wife Catherine Cragghill (formerly White). Alexander’s father William, a railway engine driver, had thirteen children by his first wife Ellen Craghill neé Butler. Alexander served as a Private with the 13th Battalion, The King’s (Liverpool) Regiment. He died on 28 March 1918 during the First Battle of Arras. Alexander’s name is recorded on the Arras Memorial, France and on the original plaque of the Natland memorial. ---- '''Herbert Nixon (1892-1920)''' Herbert, born at Clifton, Westmorland in 1892, was the second of five children born to Thomas George Nixon and his wife Elizabeth Todd Nixon who lived at 24 Helmside, Oxenholme. Like his father, Herbert worked on the railway. Herbert married Helen Escolme in July 1917 and daughter Marian was born in October 1918. Sadly Helen died just three weeks later. Herbert initially served as a Private in the RASC Motor Transport Unit. He died from typhus on 25 January 1920 while serving in Southern Russia. Daughter Marian was brought up by her mother’s sister. Herbert’s name is recorded on the Haidar Pasha Memorial, Turkey and on a supplementary plaque added to the Natland memorial in 2008. ---- '''Douglas Swan Tweddle (1891-1917)''' Douglas, born at Oxenholme in 1891, was the fourth of eleven children born to James Swan Tweddle and his wife Rhoda Nixon who lived at 23 Helmside, Oxenholme. Like his father, Douglas worked on the railway. Douglas married Florence Cole at St. Peter’s Church, Aintree in 1916. He served as a Private in the 22nd Battalion, The Manchester Regiment. He died on 27 May 1917. His name is commemorated on the Achiet-le-Grand Communal Cemetery Memorial and at St. Peter’s Church, Aintree, but not on the Natland memorial. ---- '''Charles Wyndham Wilson''' Charles, born at Oxenholme on 24 June 1894, was the fifth of six children born to William James Wilson (1845–1904) and his wife Susan Isabella Rachel Wilson nee Smith (1860–1933), known as Rachel, who lived at High Park House, Oxenholme. Charles was educated at Cheltenham College. He served with the 2nd Battalion, The Border Regiment as a 2nd Lieutenant but was killed in action on 12 March 1925 during the Battle of Neuve Chapelle, France aged 20. He was initially buried at Cuthbert Farm Cemetery near Richebourg-L'Avoue and his remains were due to be moved in 1925 to Rue-Petillon Cemetery, Fleurbaix but were not found.

That the individuals composing this Meeting do
form themselves into an Association, to be designated
" The Agricultural Association for Chipping-Norton
and its vicinity," which shall be open to all persons
who approve of its objects, and are desirous of asso-
ciating with them. That the general object of this Association is, and
shall be, to watch over and protect the interests of
Agriculture; to circulate information in the neigh-
bourhood; and to petition Parliament for the repeal
of any existing laws that may be prejudicial in their
nature and effect; and to enact new laws to protect
its interests; in harmony with, and as essential to,
the welfare of the community at large. That the immediate and particular object of this
Association is, to correspond with other Associations
of a similar character, on the best means for securing
the restoration of Properity; and to unite with them
on petitioning both Houses of Parliament on the com-
mencement of the ensuing Sessions, to take the very
distressed state of the Agricultural Interest into their
most serious consideration; to revise and amend the
existing Corn Laws; and to impose such a Duty on
all Foreign Corn imported into this Country, and sold
in its Markets, as shall protect the Cultivators of the
Soil from that UNEQUAL and ruinous COMPETITION
which they are now subjected to. That, without further protection than what is
afforded by the present Corn Laws, the Farmers will
not long be able to pay their Landlords the Rent of
their Farms, because nearly all the produce is con-
sumed in payind the very limited number of labourers
they employ, and the Parochial & Government Tazes. That the popular opinion, that the Landlords can
effectually relieve their Tenantry by reducing their
Rents, is erroneous; as no reduction that would be
efficient could be realized by them without rendering
themselves unable to bear their share of the public
burdens, and to maintain establishments correspond-
ing with the sphere they occupy in society. That it is impolitic in Government, and unjust to
the Occupiers of the Soil, to permit Foreign Corn to
be imported into this Country, and sold therein,
without paying an Import Duty equal in amount to
what IS PAID BY THE HOMEGROWER in all the varied
forms of DIRECT and INDIRECT TAXATION. That, if a judicious Duty had been imposed on the
importation of all Foreign Corn, it would have ma-
terially relieved the very distressed state of the Fi-
nances of the Country, and prevented the necessity
of adding to that most injurious Tax, the Malt Tax;
which, by its previous rigour, had operated surely to
discourage the growth of Barley, to CUT OFF FROM
THE POOR, in a agreat measure, the invigorating and
nutritious beverage they had been so long accustomed
to enjoy; and, by compelling the public Brewer to
adopt an incessant course of attenuation of experi-
mental substitution, had disgusted a great proportion
of the higher and middle classes of society with Beer,
and induced them to relinquish the use of Malt
Liquor altogether. That it is the opinion of this Meeting, that if the
Agricultural Interest were duly protected, there
would be profitable employment for the Agricultural
Labourers now out of employ; and, except in a few
instances, there would be no occasion for men in
health to apply to the parishes for relief. That it is the opinion of this Meeting, that all
classes of the community are deeply interested in the
question, Whether Agriculture shall be further pro-
tected or not? For, without further protection, the
labourers cannot be profitably employed; Trade, in
the districts principally dependant on husbandry, will
still continue to decline; the Manufacturers (at a
crisis when they are more especially dependant on
home consumption) must discharge their hands -- still
continue to have them partially paid by the parishes
for the work done, or suspend their work entirely;
the POOR RATES WILL RAPIDLY INCREASE; the TAXES
will not be paid; the Stock-holders will not receive
their Dividends; the Landlords must forego their
Rents; and general degradation and wide spreading
misery will be the result. On the other hand, if
Agriculture is efficiently protected, the prosperity of
the Country will progressively ensue; for, should the
home produce prove sufficient for the sustenance of
the Country, the prices obtained would revive the
repressed energies of the dispirited people, and direct
them into a profitable channel. Should we be par-
tially dependant on a foreign supply, still these ad-
vantages would not entirely cease to accrue, and the
Duties on the Corn imported would effect a reduction
of the National Debt, that mountain of desolation
that overhangs with POTENTOUS GLOOM the prospects
of Britain. That Government have, on various occasions, by
numerous Acts of Parliament, protected the interests
of the Manufacturer and Merchant, and of the Learned
Professions. That we wish not to object to such
protection, but, that we feel equally entitled to pro-
tection for ourselves, on account of our numerical
proportion in society, the extent of capital we em-
ploy, the amount of taxes we pay, and the vitality
of consequence attached to our employment. That the business of this Association be conducted
by a Chairman, Secretary, Treasurer, and a Com-
mittee of ten Members; which Committee shall meet
at the Crown and Cushion Inn, Chipping-Norton,
the last Wednesday in October, January, April, and
July; and any five of them shall have power to act. That [[Huckvale-54|Mr. Samuel Huckvale]], of Over Norton, be
appointed Chairman for the ensuing year. That Mr. John Davis, of Chastleton Hill, be ap-
pointed Secretary and Treasurer of this Association;
and to whom it is requested that all Subscriptions
and Donations may be paid, and communications
addressed. That the Committee of Management for the en-
suing year do consist of [[Huckvale-54|Mr. Samuel Huckvale]], Chair-
man; Mr. John Davis, Secretary and Treasurer; Mr.
Baker, Little Rollwright; Mr. Kimber, Little Tew;
Mr. W. Harbidge, Brookend; Mr. T. Harbidge,
Rollwright Coombs; Mr. Evans, Chadlington; Mr.
Stought, Chadlington; Mr. Harvey, Lineham; Mr.
Davis, Oakham; Mr. Smith, Sandford; Mr. Thomp-
son, Great Tew. That a General Meeting of the Association shall
be held on the second Wednesday in November, for
the purpose of agreeing on the Petition to PArliament;
and the Committee are requested to prepare Petitions
to both Houses, founded on the preceding Resolutions. That a Subscription be immediately entered into,
for defraying the expences attendant on the business
of this Association; and that a Copy of the foregoing
Reolutions be inserted once in the Farmer's Journal,
and once in the Oxford Journal. The Thanks of the Meeting were then voted to the
Chairman, for his attention to the business of the day.
JOHN DAVIS, Secretary. A vey liberal Subscription was immediately
entered into. We the under-signed, do heartily concur in the
preceding Resolutions, although not present at the
Meeting:-- {| |style="width:150px"|Mr. BARTLETT,||Kitebrook; |- |Mr. BERRY,||Great Rollwrightk; |- |Mr. GARDNer,||Heythropk; |- |Mr. HUGHES,||Great Rollwrightk; |- |Mr. R.

the White Hart Inn, in Chipping-Norton, on Wed-
nesday the 12th day of August, 1812, to take into consider-
ation the Penalties attaching in buying or selling Corn other-
wise than the Winchester Measure, and giving obedience to
the Laws.
GEORGE F. STRATTON, Esq. of Great Tew Park,
in the Chair; After reading and considering the Act of the 22d Charles
the Second, imposing a penalty of 40g. upon any person selling
corn otherwise than by Winchester Measure; and the Act of
the 22d and 23d Charles the Second, enacting that, besides the
penalty of the former Act, every person who shall buy or sell
corn otherwise than by Winchester measure, shall forfeit the
corn so bought or sold, or the value thereof, and other Sta-
tutes relating to the Corn Laws: And also the judgement of
the Court of the King's Bench, in the KING, versus MAJOR, and
the KING, versus ARNOLD, in affirmance of convictions upon
these Statutes, for buying corn by a different bushel from the
Winchester measure, the following Resolutions were moved
and carried unanimously -- RESOLVED, That we cannot consider, without astonishment,
that notwithstanding the various Laws and Statutes which
have at different times been made for the use and adoption of
one standard measure throughout the kingdom for the buying
and selling of corn, they have, in so many instances, been
evaded and disobeyed; and that in this county in particular,
custom has so far superceded the established Law of the Land,
that the legal or Winchester measure is never used but in the
retailing of corn, while in all wholesale dealings the measure,
commonly called the 9-gallon measure, is universally adopted. RESOLVED, That this practice is very prejudicial to the real
interests of the country, inasmuch as the loss, which the adop-
tion of these two different measures occasions, falls entirely on
the growers and on the consumers of corn, while the grain is
exclusively divided among the middle men, who buy it of the
grower by the larger measure, and sell it to the consumer by
the smaller one. RESOLVED, That at this time, when all necessaries of life,
and corn in particular, have risen to such an high price, it
particularly behoves us to use our utmost endeavours to abo-
lish this custom so prejudicial to the interests of all occupiers
of land, and to the general interests of the country. RESOLVED, THat we will, therefore, in all our dealings at
this and other markets, neither sell nor buy by any other than
the legal Winchester measure. RESOLVED, That a Committee be appointed to attend at
Chipping-Norton on each Market and Fair Day, who shall
take such measures as they may think proper to carry these Resolutions into effect. RESOLVED, That the following persons be the Committee,
any three of whom shall be competent to act, and that they
shall meet every Wednesday at the White Hart Inn, at One
o'clock -- {| |- |scope="col" style="min-width: 200px"|George F. Stratton, Esq.||Mr. John Baker, |- |R. Knayson, Esq.||Mr. John Warmington, |- |A. T. Rawlinson, Esq.||Mr. Daniel Smith, |- |Michael Corgan, Esq.||[[Huckvale-54|Mr. Samuel Huckvale, jun.]] |- |Mr. John Harris,||Mr. Charles Stought. |} RESOLVED, That we consider the fines and forfeitures* which
the Law has inflicted on all persons buying or selling by illegal
measures will be sufficient to pay the Law expences of this
Committee, but that if they are not, we will pay the sums
that are set against our names, or such proportion of them as
shall be required to indemnify them against loss; and that the
surplus of the fines and forfeitures (if any) which shall re-
main after paying the Law and other expences of the Com-
mittee, &c. shall be subscribed to such County Charity as the
next Meeting shall think proper. RESOLVED, That we will meet, whenever called upon by a
summons from the Committee, to pursue such other measures
as shall be deemed advisable to be adpoted for the furtherance
of the object above mentioned. RESOLVED, That the Thanks of this Meeting be given to
the Chairman. RESOLVED, That these Resolutions be inserted in the Ox-
ford Journal. RESOLVED, That this Meeting be adjourned till Wednesday
the 14th day of October next, at One o'clock, at this house. {| |- |colspan="6" style="text-align:center"|SUBSCRIBERS. |- |scope="col" style="min-width: 150px"| ||scope="col" style="min-width: 20px" align=right|£||scope="col" style="min-width: 40px" align=center|s.||scope="col" style="min-width: 150px"| ||scope="col" style="min-width: 20px" align=right|£||scope="col" style="min-width: 20px" align=right|s. |- |George F.

resident in the neighbourhood of Chipping Norton, held,
by adjournment, at the White Hart Inn, in Chipping Norton,
the 21st October, 1812; After reading the Resolutions entered into by the Gentle-
men in the neighbourhood of Stow on the Wold, as published
in the Oxford Papers, ''Resolved unanimously'', That we highly approve of those Reso-
lutions, and that we will co-operate with the Committee there
appointed by every means in our power. ''Resolved unanimously'', That A. T. RAWLINSON, Esq. and
G. F. STRATTON, Esq. be requested to communicate with
them for that purpose, and to endeavour, in conjunction with
them, to promote the use of the LEGAL WINCHESTER
MEASURE, at the markets in the counties of WORCESTER
and WARWICK. ''Resolved unanimously'', That while we rejoice in the general
adoption of the legal Measure in this and Banbury Markets,
yet as some few persons still persevere in a clandestine opposi-
tion to it, we will no longer delay enforcing it by all those
means which the laws have placed in our hands. {| |- |scope="col" style="min-width: 150px"|Geo Fred. Stratton,||scope="col" style="min-width: 150px"|William Orson,||John Barlow, |- |A. T.

The unit served in the [[:Category: Second Boer War|Second Boer War]], [[:Category: World War I|World War I]] and [[:Category: World War II|World War II]]. The regiment was created as part of the 1881 Childers Reforms, by the amalgamation of the [[:Category:43rd_(Monmouthshire_Light_Infantry)_Regiment|43rd (Monmouthshire Light Infantry)]] and the [[:Category:52nd (Oxfordshire) Regiment of Foot |52nd (Oxfordshire) Regiment of Foot]], forming the 1st and 2nd battalions of the [[:Category: Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry Regiment|Oxfordshire Light Infantry]] on 1 July 1881. In 1908, as part of the Haldane Reforms, the regiment's title was altered to become the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry, commonly shortened to the Ox and Bucks and the 4th battalion and the 1st Buckinghamshire battalion were formed, both originally county volunteer units, and they became part of a new Territorial Force, later the Territorial Army (TA). After service in many conflicts and wars, the Ox and Bucks Light Infantry was, in 1948, reduced to a single Regular Army battalion and on 7 November 1958, following Duncan Sandys' 1957 Defence White Paper, was renamed the 1st Green Jackets (43rd and 52nd) forming part of the Green Jackets Brigade and later formed part of the [[:Category: The Rifles|The Rifles]].

==Welcome to the Oxfordshire Monthly Challenge!== These challenges are for improving Oxfordshire profiles and we will focus on those that are currently flagged as Unsourced and associated with a particular town or area each month ===Steps to take to complete a profile=== *Add at least one full source *Check the birth, marriage and death location fields are correctly formatted – a number have problems such as misspelt towns, multiple commas, missing country or have addresses (which should be moved to the biography) *If the profile is linked to another through marriage please try and find a source for that marriage *Check the biography and clean it up or add to it where you can *Remove span anchors and replace with proper source formats *Check the profile for suggestions and resolve those where you can *If you are unable to find a source, add a “Research Notes” section detailing where you have searched so others can then know where else to check *If your research suggests that there are significant problems such as conflated profiles (i.e. the profile includes information that represents 2 or more different people), wrong family members etc please add the category "Category:England Project Serious Data Problems" so that the Tangled Families team can have a look at it *Finally if you have added sources please make sure you remove the unsourced category ===January 2024=== This month the profiles in the table are those that have been flagged with the maintenance category "Oxfordshire, needs death record". Please clean up the profiles as best you can and once you have found a source for the death, remember to remove the maintenance category.

These are quick to fix, but please also review the profile and sort out any other issues you can - no sources, gedcom junk, span anchors etc etc. 2) Oxfordshire only: 19th century people who were born in Oxfordshire but the actual town/village is not recorded.

Musquito and the Oyster Bay Tribe

''[[Cammeraygal|Musquito]], Musquetta, Bush Muschetta or Muskito was an Indigenous Australian resistance leader, based in Van Diemen's Land. He was the leader of the Tame gang, he joined forces with the Oyster Bay tribe. The Tame gang and the Oyster Bay tribe raided farms on the east coast of Tasmania and killed several stockmen.'' It is thought that Musquito was born in the Hawkesbury region of Sydney. In 1805 he was making raids on British settlements. On the 9 Jun 1805, the authorities authorised his arrest. The local Aboriginal people captured in July of 1805. He was gaoled in Parramatta but wasn't charged. Governor Phillip King exiled him and another prisoner named Bull Dog to Norfolk Island. In January 1813 as part of the evacuation of Norfolk Island, Musquito was sent on the ship Minstrel with other convicts to Port Dalrymple in what was then called Van Diemen's Land. In 1814, Musquito's brother Philip asked Governor Lachlan Macquarie to allow Musquito to return to Sydney, but for some reason, this did not happen and he stayed in Van Diemen's Land. Musquito worked as an Aboriginal tracker to help catch bushrangers. For his services as a tracker of bushrangers, he was promised he would be sent back to Sydney but once again this did not occur. By February 1818 he was a servant of the prominent and wealthy settler Edward Lord, and some sources say that in October 1818 Musquito helped track and kill bushranger Michael Howe. Mosquito was upset over all the broken promises and decided to leave the settlement and go live in the bush. He ended up with the Oyster Bay tribe of natives. There were 200 Aboriginal people, Musquito became their leader they committed many murders on settlers and their families. A large reward was offered for his capture, he was tracked to his hideout at Oyster Bay by a native and two constables, and after resistance, he was wounded and captured he was taken to Hobart Town, where he and another native named Black Tom, and six Europeans, were executed together. {{Image|file=Terry_s_Photos-136.png |align=c |size=600 |caption= }} ==Sources== *[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musquito Wkipedia] - Musquito aboriginal Bushranger *[http://cbhsyearfivehistory.weebly.com/musquito.html CBHS Year five History] - Musquito *[http://cbhsyearfivehistory.weebly.com/uploads/3/7/0/5/37051397/musquito_newspaper.pdf Newspapers] - from the Argus Melbourne Friday 22nd June 1952

[[Category:Scotland Projects]] ==Introduction== The goal of this project is to assist others, whose common ancestors originated from the region near Pabbay in the Outer Hebrides Islands of Scotland. Last names include MacLeod,/McLeod, MacLellan/McLellan, MacLean/McLean, MacDonald/McDonald, MacIver/McIver. The descendants of these ancestors may reside in Scotland or have immigrated to Nova Scotia and Australia. With the advent of DNA testing, finding connections is much easier. The last names of many individuals from this region are not particularly common, so building your own family tree connection to them should be easier given the open source, collaborative, shared organization of wikitree. Before adding information regarding living individuals to a wikitree profile or family tree, please review the documentation under [[Help:Privacy_Policy]]. ==Wikitree Profiles== * [[McLellan-1401|Michael McLellan]]. * [[MacLeod-2316]] ==Introduction== Will you join me?

[[Category:Pace Name Study]] [[Category: Alia, Palermo]] [[Category: Valledolmo, Palermo]] [[Category: One Name Studies Project, Needs Coordinator]] ==About the Project== The Pace Name Study project serves as a collaborative platform to collect information on the [https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/Pace Pace] name. The hope is that other researchers like you will [[#How to Join|join the study]] to help make it a valuable reference point for other genealogists who are researching or have an interest in the Pace name. As a One Name Study, this project is not limited to persons who are related biologically. Individual [[#Teams|team studies]] can be used to branch out the research into specific methods and areas of interest, such as geographically (England Paces), by time period (18th Century Paces), or by topic (Pace DNA, Pace Occupations,Pace Statistics). These studies may also include a number of family branches which have no immediate link with each other. Some researchers may even be motivated to go beyond the profile identification and research stage to compile fully sourced, single-family histories of some of the families they discover through this name study project. ''Also see the [[#Related Surnames and Surname Variants|related surnames and surname variants]]. ==How to Join== To join the Pace Name Study, first start out by browsing our current [[#Teams|teams]] to see if there is a specific study ongoing that fits your interests.

We have traced the Pace Family in Alia, Sicilia back to about 1730, to Antonina Pace who married Biagio Miceli.. We would like to link this Pace Family with other Pace Families throughout Sicilia, and find the history of the Pace family back as many further generations as possible. We would also like to find all the descendants of the Pace family in Sicilia and where ever they may have migrated over the centuries. We think that this surname means "Peace" in italian, from the Latin "Pacem"

This free space page for the Pacific Sunset Cemetery is part of WikiTree's Oregon Cemeteries Project, and was created to document the life and times of our ancestors that are interred there. The Oregon Cemeteries Project is a sub-project of the larger U.S. Cemeteries Project. This page is a work in progress, and will remain so until the Table of Interments (below) is completed. The Table of Interments is a sortable listing of persons interred at this cemetery, some or all of whom are linked to existing WikiTree profiles. If you know of a person interred at this cemetery that should be linked to an existing WikiTree profile, or needs to have a profile created for them, please contact [[Small-1886|Luci Goodman]] for assistance. ----- ===Contact Information, Location and Map=== Location

[[Category:Nominated Profiles]] ==The Packer Portraits== The Packer Portraits are a fascinating heirloom, and hold great significance for descendants of the Packer family. Images of the portraits circulate on various genealogy sites with differing attributions as to the sitter. Many claim that one or two of the portraits are that of Philip Packer (1664-1739), who will be referred to here as Philip the Immigrant to distinguish him from his father, Philip Packer FRS (1618-1686). Philip the Immigrant became the most famous member of the family. Having left England to start a new life, he raised a large family in America. Many of his descendants understandably wish to lay claim to an image. The ten beautifully painted portraits of three generations of Packers graced the halls of [[Space:Groombridge Place|Groombridge Place]] for 350 years. [[Smail-33|I]] first learned about the portraits as a young child, when my [[Packer-453|Grandmother]] presented the family with a photo album of Groombridge Place that included images of the portraits and a photo-copied letter (believed to be from [[Packer-474|David Packer]] and addressed to [[Packer-456|Emma Kelson]]) detailing the Packer history at Groombridge. My parents went to see the house in the 70s. They were invited in and given a tour by Mr. Mountain. They saw the portraits in hanging in the halls. In 1992, the portraits, along with much of the house's contents were sold at auction by Sotheby's, and, sadly, have been scattered - though it is believed that one of the portraits remains in Groombridge Place, a private home. The images on this page were scanned from the Sotheby's catalogue on September 15, 2013. The Lot descriptions were transcribed [with any added notes in square brackets] shortly after. There are two portraits in particular that are claimed to be of Philip the Immigrant: Lot 251 and Lot 257. The identity of the remainder are less disputed, though I have seen Lot 259 identified as Philip the Immigrant as well. I believe that none of these portraits are of Philip the Immigrant. The fact that they are so often identified as such (other than the fact that so many of them ARE named Philip), I can only attribute to a desire for people to look at the face of their ancestor and link themselves visually to their history - a desire I understand well. The portraits have to be examined as a group, which hung in a family home at a time in history. They also should be understood in the context of Groombridge Place, and the history of Philip FRS's "two families". Philip the Immigrant was the illegitimate child of Philip Packer and Sarah Isgar. Philip FRS kept his second family (Sarah and their three sons - James, William and Philip) in one of his properties in Ireland. After his wife Isabella died, Philip married Sarah and moved her to Groombridge Place. It is very likely that the three boys stayed in Ireland. The family that Philip sailed to America with were, in essence, neighbours of the Isgar/Packer property in Ireland. His two other brothers died in the Battle of the Boyne in Ireland in 1690. Philip the Immigrant could not inherit, and there is some doubt that he even used the name Packer before he left for America. With that knowledge, it is difficult to imagine that his portrait would have hung in the halls of the family estate. Particularly if one must then chose which "legitimate" member of the family would have been left off the walls. According to my research (which, for the record, proved that my family is not descended from the Groombridge Packers at all), the portraits are of the following sitters (Lot numbers as they appear in the catelogue): *First generation **Lot 251: [[Packer-52|Philip Packer, FRS]] **Lot 253: [[Berkeley-174|Isabella Berkeley]] of Spechley, Philip Packer's first wife **Lot 252: [[Isgar-3|Sarah Isgar]], Philip Packer's second wife [[image:Packer_family_portraits.jpg|150px|Phillip Packer]] [[image:Packer_family_portraits-2.jpg|150px|Isabelle Berkely]] [[image:Packer_family_portraits-3.jpg|150px|Sarah Isgar]] *Second generation **Lot 254: Four daughters of Philip Packer and Isabelle Berkeley (from left) [[Packer-58|Temperance]]; [[Packer-56|Elizabeth]]; [[Packer-54|Isabella]], and [[Packer-57|Katherine]] **Lot 257: [[Packer-489|Robert Packer]], eldest son of Philip Packer and Isabella Berkeley **Lot 258: [[Packer-143|John Philip Packer]] son and ultimate heir of Philip Packer and Isabella Berkeley **Lot 255: [[Morgan-5603|Barbara Morgan]], wife of [[Packer-143|John Philip]] [[image:Packer_family_portraits-4.jpg|300px|Temperance, Elizabeth, Isabella and Katherine]] [[image:Packer_family_portraits-5.jpg|150px|Robert Packer]] [[image:Packer_family_portraits-6.jpg|150px|John P.Packer]] [[image:Packer_family_portraits-7.jpg|150px|Barbara Morgan]] *Third generation **Lot 259: [[Packer-475|Philip Packer]], son and heir of John Philip Packer and Barbara Morgan **Lot 256: [[Packer-476|Isabella]], daughter of John Philip Packer and Barbara Morgan **Lot 260: [[Packer-477|Anne Packer]], daughter of John Philip Packer and Barbara Morgan [[image:Packer_family_portraits-10.jpg|150px|Philip Packer]] [[image:Packer_family_portraits-9.jpg|150px|Isabella Packer]] [[image:Packer_family_portraits-8.jpg|150px|Anne Packer]] ----- ==The Sotheby's Catalogue== The catalogue, created in 1992 for the sale of the contents of Groombridge place, lists biographical information with each of the Lots. Some of that information came from the Red Book, of the late Mr. Mountain who purchased Groombridge Place and much of its contents in 1919. He kept detailed notes about the provenance of the contents of the house in the Red book. The accuracy of this information is likely good, but still flawed. As an experienced art auction house, Sotheby's understands the importance of provenance, and detailed, accurate information is part of that. However, there are some internal inaccuracies within the listings. The captions of each lot [with my notes] are transcribed below. ===Lot 251=== Follower of Sir Peter Lely (1618-1680) Portrait of Philip Packer (1656-1739) Three-quarter length, seated, wearing a brown coat, a book in his right hand. Oil on canvas, in its original carved wood frame 124.5 by 99cm, 49 by 39 in. [I believe the following is incorrect] The sitter was the eldest son of [[Packer-39|Philip Packer]] (1618-1686) and his second wife, Sarah Isgar (see lot 252). He married Hannah Sessions in 1686, and died in America in 1739. His father, [[Packer-52|Philip Packer]] [who [[Smail-33|I]] think is actually the sitter], a founder member of the Royal Society, who inherited the property in 1649, built Groombridge Place, and entertained his friend and fellow barrister John Evelyn on at least two occasions." The reason I believe this portrait to be of [[Packer-52|Philip Packer]](1618) and not his son is because the portraits cover three largely complete generations of Groombridge Packers. There is no evidence that [[Packer-39|Philip Packer Jr.]], or his two full brothers (the three of whom were born out of wedlock to [[Isgar-3|Sarah Isgar]]) ever resided at Groombridge. ===Lot 253=== Attributed to Robert Walker (fl.1641-1658) Portrait of Isabella Berkeley of Spetchley, Mrs. Philip Packer.

She was the daughter of Thomas Berkeley of Spetchley Park, Worcestershire, and his wife Anne, daughter of William Darell of Scotney, Sussex. Her brother Robert founded the Berkeley Hospital in Worcester. Bought by Mr. Mountain before the sale of the contents of Groombridge Place, September 1919. Valued by Toplis & Harding, 28 Old Jewry, London, £75.0.0. Purchased for £25.0.0. £ 3,000 – 5,000 ===Lot 252=== John Greenhill (c.1644-1676) Portrait of Sarah Isgar, Mrs. Philip Packer Head and shoulders, wearing a brown dress and pearls. Oil on canvas, oval. 59.5 by 49.5cm; 23.5 by 19.5 in. The sitter was the wife of Philip Packer (1618-1686). She was christened in West Lavington, Wiltshire in 1624, and married Philip Packer as his second wife in 1666. They had three sons, Philip (see lot 251), James and William. Purchased by Mr. Mountain before the sale of the contents of Groombridge Place, September 1919. Valued by Toplis & Harding, 28 Old Jewry, London, £21.0.0. Purchased for £18.0.0. £2,000-3,000 ===Lot 254=== Follower of John Michael Wright (1617-1694) Portrait of the four daughters of Philip Packer (1618-1686) All half-length, in a landscape, wearing orange and blue robes. Oil on canvas, in its original carved wood frame 100 by 179cm.; 39.5 by 70.5 in. The sitters are the daughters of Philip Packer and his first wife Isabella Berkeley. They are Isabella (1657-1736) who married Thomas Vincent in 1682, Elizabeth (1659-1714) who married Michael Geddes, Katherine (1661-1722) who married Philip Vincent of Barnborough Grange, and Temperance (1663-1729) who married John Van Den Bempde of Hackness Hall, Yorkshire in 1699. Purchased by Mr. Mountain before the sale of the contents of Groombridge Place, September 1919. Valued by Toplis & Harding, 28 Old Jewry, London, £63.0.0. Purchased for £35.0.0. £8,000-12,000 ===Lot 257=== Charles Beale (1660-1714) Portrait of a gentleman of the Packer family [see description for lot 253, which identifies this sitter as Robert] Three-quarter length, standing, wearing a grey coat with red robes Signed c.r.: C.B., oil on canvas 124.5 by 99 cm; 49 by 39 in. Literature: Elizabeth Walsh and Richard Jeffree, the Excellent Mary Beale, 1976, Exhibition Catalogue. pp41 and 43 (illus.) £ 4,000 – 6,000 ===Lot 258=== John Closterman (1660-1711) Portrait of John Packer (1655-1697) Three-quarter length, standing, wearing a blue coat and brown robes.

Isabella (see lot 256), Philip (see lot 259) and Anne (see lot 260). Following the death of his elder brother, Robert, he inherited Groombridge from his father Philip in 1686. £ 6,000 – 8,000 ===Lot 255=== Attributed to Harman Verelst (c. 1643-1702) Portrait of Barbara Morgan Head and shoulders, wearing a red dress with grey robes. Oil on canvas, oval, in a carved wood frame 73.5 by 61 cm; 29 by 24 in. The sister was the wife of John Packer (see lot 258). She was the daughter of Colonel John Morgan of Warminster, Wiltshire. £ 800 – 1,200 ===Lot 259=== Attributed to John Vandervaart (1653-1727) Portrait of Philip Packer (1676-1709) Fully length, standing in a landscape, wearing a grey tunic and red robes, a musket in his left hand, a spaniel by his side. Oil on canvas, in its original carved wood frame. 183 by 119.5cm; 71 by 47 in. The sitter was the son of John Packer (see lot 258) and his wife Barbara Morgan. He married Anne Ashe, daughter and heiress of sir Joseph Ashe of Twickenham, and on his death the property was left to his sister. He was the last [male] Packer to live at Groombridge and in 1753 the Packer connection ended. £ 10,000 – 15,000 ===Lot 256=== Studio of Sir Godfrey Kneller, Bt. (1646-1723) Portrait of Isabella Packer, later Mrs Rivers of Chafford Three-quarter length, seated, wearing a brown dress with blue robes, a dog by her side.

She married firstly George Rivers of Chafford, and secondly Mr. Cook. £ 2,500 – 4,000 ===Lot 260=== Attributed to John Vandervaart (1653-1727) Portrait of Anne Packer (B. 1677) Full length, seated in a landscape beside an urn of flowers, wearing a brown dress with blue robes. Oil on canvas, in a carved wood frame 180.5 by 119.5 cm; 71 by 47 in. The sitter was the youngest daughter of John Packer (see lot 258) and his wife Barbara Morgan, and sister of Philip Packer (see previous lot). In 1735 she married, at the age of 57, Thomas Lyte of London, whose descendant, the Rev. Henry Francis Lyte was author of the hymn ‘Abide with Me’. £7,000 – 10,000 == The portraits today == The whereabouts of the ten portraits that hung together for 350 years is unknown. They have been presumably scattered to various buyers who attended the auction in 1992. I believe at least one was purchased by an art museum. Another, that of Sarah Isgar, was purchased by the current owner of Groombridge, and hangs in the house. If anyone knows how to find the buyers of the portraits, it would be great to document their whereabouts here. ---- ==References== === Footnotes === === Sources === *Source: Geddes-Brown, Leslie.
