1 NOTE A Rosebud
2 CONT 
2 CONT When God calls little children to dwell with Him 
2 CONT above 
2 CONT We mortals always question the wisdom of His 
2 CONT love.
2 CONT For no heartache can compare with the death 
2 CONT of one small child, 
2 CONT Who does so much to make the world seem 
2 CONT wonderful and mild. 
2 CONT Perhaps God tires...always calling the aged to 
2 CONT His fold, 
2 CONT And so He picks a rosebud before it can grow 
2 CONT old. 
2 CONT God knows how much we need them, and so He 
2 CONT picks but few; 
2 CONT To make the land of Heaven more beautiful to 
2 CONT view. 
2 CONT Believing this is difficult, yet somehow we must 
2 CONT try, 
2 CONT For the saddest word that mankind knows will 
2 CONT always be good-bye. 
2 CONT And so when little ones depart; we who are left 
2 CONT behind, 
2 CONT Must realize how much God loves children... 
2 CONT for angels are hard to find.

2 CONT imply that he held a responsible position.  He settled in

2 CONT of land in Watertown,
2 CONT viz.:    July 25, 1636, John Eaton, Forty acres
2 CONT Feb 28 1636, John Eaton, Six acres
2 CONT June 26, 1637, John Eaton, Six acres
2 CONT April 9, 1638, John Eaton, Three acres

2 CONT From which it would appear that he did not break off entirely

2 CONT in 1641.  The Dedham Covenant was dated 10th, of 7th 1630, and
2 CONT has the signature of John Eaton, but probably he signed it some
2 CONT months after the date.  John Eaton's name first appears as
2 CONT present at town meeting on 28th 9th month 1637: after he was a
2 CONT regular attendant.  A meeting house was ordered "to be in
2 CONT length 36 Foote and 20 foote bredth & .... in ye studs 12
2 CONT foote.  18, 11, 1637.  Thomas Wright, John Dwight, Nicholas
2 CONT Phillips and John Eaton have undertaken to fell Pynes and Oake
2 CONT for it."  John Eaton helped to build the first bridge over the
2 CONT Charles river in Dedham.  John Eaton's house was valued at
2 CONT 10p.8.0.  But we must remember that measured in the money of
2 CONT the presend day the houses would be worth three or four times
2 CONT as much.  John Eaton, took an active part in the affairs of the
2 CONT little community:  He served on committees to lay out land, was
2 CONT Surveyor of Highways: was "Wood reeve" several years.  In 1647
2 CONT he was a "committee" to decide who was behind in their way
2 CONT work.  He, with his wife, was admitted to Dedham Church, July
2 CONT 5, 1642.  He sold land in Watertown to Edward How.---  His Will

1 NOTE Mel was a man who was well liked by young and old. He had a whooping
2 CONC , infectious laugh and a great sense of humour. He loved to both tel
2 CONC l jokes and play practical jokes. He was a very social man who worke
2 CONC d on all community committees and loved to "visit".  He loved to mak
2 CONC e music and dance - I can remember many "schoolhouse" dances around Ye
2 CONC llow Grass as we were growing up.  During his youth he played the euph
2 CONC onium in the Weyburn band, he also played the piano and steel guita
2 CONC r - and we all took music lessons on the piano but none of us had Dad'
2 CONC s talent.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mel went to Winnipeg about 1937 after the death of his father (the hom
2 CONC e farm was sold and his mother and sisters moved into Weyburn) to wor
2 CONC k as a mechanic. He worked there until just before his marriage to Rec
2 CONC he. From that time on he farmed the Morrison farm at Yellow Grass, gra
2 CONC dually buying land of his own and changing and improving the home farm
2 CONC . He was not a cattleman at heart, and after the death of John Morriso
2 CONC n, the farm became a grain only farm.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Peterson's were confirmed "snowbirds", travelling throughout the S
2 CONC outhern US most winters from about 1950. The family would pack up kids
2 CONC , school books and all in the home built motor home (then called a "tr
2 CONC ailer" and head for Texas, Florida, California, Arizona or anywhere wa
2 CONC rm.  I can remember wintering in Sarasota in a park with many circus f
2 CONC olk; searching for conch shells on the Florida beaches: picking crysta
2 CONC ls in Arkansas and exploring  the Ozarks meeting more than a few of th
2 CONC e so called "hillbillies"; riding along the Swanee in a surrey wit
2 CONC h a fringe on top; watching the "wetbacks" cross into Texas and visiti
2 CONC ng Charro days in Texas and Mexico - David even got lost at one of the
2 CONC se events- I can imagine our parents horror; exploring the Carlsbad Ca
2 CONC verns;  looking with fascination at the Superstition Mountains and mak
2 CONC ing dad drive out many times so we could find the Dutchman's needle an
2 CONC d his gold; seeing the swallows come back to Capistrano and picking Or
2 CONC anges in Texas, California and Florida. We would go "down south" in la
2 CONC te October and return before the April income tax date. We were put in
2 CONC to school in both Florida and Texas - I think to keep us out of troubl
2 CONC e as we always had to do Sask. lessons in the evening. Travelling wa
2 CONC s an education and we didn't know it.
2 CONT 
2 CONT When we kids were going to university in Saskatoon, Mel and Reche rent
2 CONC ed the Gordon Ireland home at 1220 Elliott St. during the winter to b
2 CONC e near  us. It was a mere block away from the university. Neva, Davi
2 CONC d and Lil all went to University from 1220.  It was during  the  Saska
2 CONC toon winters that Dad took up Rock Polishing - a course offered at "ni
2 CONC ght school". It was a hobby that complemented the Rock hounding he ha
2 CONC d picked up on our many trips south.  He enjoyed  both hobbies right u
2 CONC p to his death.
2 CONT 
2 CONT About 1969 Mel and Reche retired to Kelowna, BC to a 1/4 acre home whe
2 CONC re he "farmed roses", rock hounded, and travelled til his death in 197
2 CONC 1. He returned to Yellow Grass to help David with seeding and harvest
2 CONC . Mel enjoyed being a Mason and rose to Grand Master of his Lodge at Y
2 CONC ellow Grass.  I can remember that he used to practice his lines as h
2 CONC e separated the cream when we still had cows.  He also worked tireless
2 CONC ly for the Conservatives as President of the Assinibois Association fo
2 CONC r many years. Mel was a member of the local school and rink boards an
2 CONC d was a strong supporter of the Baptist Church in Weyburn.   He starte
2 CONC d the Scout Troop in Yellow Grass when David was of an age and alway
2 CONC s supported the "kids" in any endeavour. He looked forward to the birt
2 CONC h of his grandchildren - he would have been a great grampa.  Sadly,  h
2 CONC e died days after his first grandchild,  Shauna, was born. He saw he
2 CONC r only in the hospital.

2 CONC 1th, 1899, I left Toronto via CPR for Indian Head. There I bought a te
2 CONC am, harness and wagon. A younger brother William. E Morrison was wit
2 CONC h me. We had two trunks and two big boxes in which all our goods wer
2 CONC e stored. We loaded up and struck for Weyburn via the QuAppelle trail.
2 CONC .. we arrived at Weyburn the third day about 3 p.m... Mr Robbins, fath
2 CONC er of Elliot Robbns said "Boys, all the good land nearby is taken, I a
2 CONC dvise you boys to go up as far as the next station, Yellow Grass''...T
2 CONC here was nothing at Yellow Grass but one shack and the section house
2 CONC , so we had to shop at Weyburn. I bought all the lumber, nails, paper
2 CONC , a chimney jack and windows for $65.00 to build our shack... I was th
2 CONC e first man to break any land south of the CPR . I was the first man t
2 CONC o thresh at Yellow Grass... Many years later I was appointed Justice o
2 CONC f the Peace...Yellow Grass had become a rough rowdy town. Men came i

2 CONC " In the fall of 1900, just as winter was near, we could see a thin re
2 CONC d line of fire at nights away to the east of us. I asked Peter Wilkin
2 CONC , the section forman, where that fire was. "Away down east of Halbrite
2 CONC "he said. I had plowed four furrows around my shack and stable about 4
2 CONC 0 yards out, then another 4 furrows, inside the outer ring about 50 o
2 CONC r 60 feet, and on a calm day, had burned the grass inside the plowing
2 CONC . This had been done in the summer of 1899. Well, the night I asked Mr
2 CONC . Wilkin how far away the fire was, I was alone, I went to sleep, nex
2 CONC t morming the ground was all black, fire had passed by and everythin
2 CONC g south of the CPR was burned. How far that fire ran, I never learned
2 CONC , though I know a settler south of Rouleau, (40 miles west) lost his s

2 CONC ar companies. From 1913-17 negotiations for almalgamation were carrie
2 CONC d on and in 1917 the Alberta group joined with the UGG. The Sask grou

2 CONC ><FONT face=Arial size=2>Mostly I remember Grandpa as the man who kep
2 CONC t those hard raspberry candies in his right dresser drawer. Sometime
2 CONC s that drawer also had Scotch mints and orange and lemon jelly slices
2 CONC . He read to us from whatever he was reading - Many a night our bedtim
2 CONC e story came from the "Saturday Evening Post" , "The Grain Growers Gui

2 CONC om the current "Geographic" on the back of the basement door and woul
2 CONC d explain and quiz us on the places there. He patiently explained word
2 CONC s to us if we did not understand. Grandpa was mostly self educated. H
2 CONC e left school in grade 6 to go to work. One of his "things" was to cho
2 CONC ose a new word and endeavor to use it ten times in the next month. I a
2 CONC lso remember the excitement Grandpa's return from his many trips woul
2 CONC d bring. He always brought us gifts...not always toys, but sometimes j
2 CONC ewellery (I have pearls and a sterling locket that have survived) or c
2 CONC hina. I think he had a passion for fine china as we have many pieces h
2 CONC e brought home over the years. I can also remember him telling me wha
2 CONC t a fine woman Grandma Lily was and he wanted me to grow into one as f
2 CONC ine. I guess he was religious but I recall more "golden-rule" kinds o
2 CONC f instruction. Honesty and fairness were his guiding rules. He would n
2 CONC ot abide underhandedness. He believed in speaking your mind and standi
2 CONC ng up for what was right for you regardless of the popularity of the i

2 CONC ces.</FONT></DIV> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">
2 CONC After his father died, August moved from the farm with his mother an
2 CONC d sisters to Sauk Center, MN. He worked at a meat market and learned t
2 CONC o cut and market meat - this would serve him well after he homesteade
2 CONC d in Canada as August always ran a large beef ring (farmers banded tog
2 CONC ether, each supplying a good beef or two. They slaughtered only one o
2 CONC r two animals at a time so they could always have fresh meat - for "fr
2 CONC ee"). Muriel says " August managed it and had a room where all the cut
2 CONC s of beef were ready once a week for each. The people were rotated s
2 CONC o the cuts were fair to each."&nbsp; He also worked in a paint, wallpa
2 CONC per and yardage store, Muriel says " My dad was very good with metal a
2 CONC nd wood but when it came to hanging wallpaper he would have nothing t
2 CONC o do with it. Uncle August would come out and give mother a hand and w
2 CONC e loved to see the change that it would make."
2 CONT &nbsp;In 1895, August, his mother and sisters moved to Ward County, N
2 CONC D where he ranched. I gather that the area was remote and unpopulated
2 CONC . There is a family story that he sheltered some of the Jesse James Ga
2 CONC ng at one time.
2 CONT Then in 1903 he moved to Canada with his brother-in-law George Larke
2 CONC y and a friend, Charlie Stuart (and wives and kids). I have a certifie
2 CONC d copy of his homestead papers. He made his application in Feb 12, 190
2 CONC 3. He was naturalized Feb 26, 1906 at Weyburn. He purchased W1/2 5- 8-
2 CONC 14-W2nd. He applied for a patent on SE1/4 18-7-16 W 2nd June 8, 1904
2 CONC . He had a house(14 x 22), Barn (28 x 40) and 2 frame granary. He ha
2 CONC d 6-9 horses, 15-50 cows and 7-14 pigs. George Larkey helped August br
2 CONC ing his herd of cattle from the ranch in ND to Weyburn. They rode hors
2 CONC eback for many days herding the cattle. Ione says that some years late
2 CONC r his mother came and he had a one room house built for her near the h
2 CONC ouse. She could not speak English but Stella learned to understand he
2 CONC r Swedish and spent many hours with her. August continued to go acros
2 CONC s to the US with his cattle business. I have permit # 745386 to Leav
2 CONC e Canada on or before the 25th of October, 1918 granted to August. H
2 CONC e was to sell a car of cattle in Chicago. August was one of the firs
2 CONC t to grow corn and took several prizes in various Grain shows. He ha
2 CONC d a silo built by Grandpa Hoffman. In 1923 the SK Department of Agricu
2 CONC lture asked him to prepare a hundred ears of corn for inclusion in th
2 CONC e exhibit at the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley Park, London. Th
2 CONC e Department had Mr. Charnell take several pictures of the standing co
2 CONC rn and a section of the field being harvested.
2 CONT &nbsp;August was always fond of dogs and ran several wolf hounds. Ion
2 CONC e recalled "My earliest recollection of the farm was the innumerable w
2 CONC olf hounds at the door waiting for a handout ...the men would tell o
2 CONC f their coyote hunting in the Big Muddy." Mel always said that the dra
2 CONC y man in WO Mitchell's "Who Has Seen the Wind" is his father. August r
2 CONC an the dray in Weyburn for several years. They were charter members o
2 CONC f Calvary Baptist Church and August played the euphonium in the Weybur
2 CONC n band. August was secretary-treasurer for the South Weyburn School fo
2 CONC r many years. He was an avid hunter. There are many photos of August t
2 CONC aken hunting and fishing. He also used his hounds to help eradicate co
2 CONC yotes. Muriel says "As the years went by he had several hunting trip
2 CONC s to moose country in northern SK and the way I recall hearing it he w
2 CONC ent with 3 or 4 others but only he and one other was a good hunter an
2 CONC d the others had booze and stayed in the cabin but all always went hom
2 CONC e with game. It was a good deal as the real hunters got a lot of hunti
2 CONC ng ... He gave us moose steak and also goose from the marsh in the fal
2 CONC l. But the coyote hunting was another thing to be sure. I am surprise
2 CONC d if your Dad did not tell you about the hunting hounds they had...I d
2 CONC o not know how many, but they were big and perhaps he wore out his wel
2 CONC come in his area because he loved to come out to our area( Trossachs
2 CONC ) as there were fewer pasture fences. These big hounds were in a compa
2 CONC rtment on the back of the sleigh or wagon and up on the front seat wit
2 CONC h him was a small black dog who would spot the coyote. As soon as sh
2 CONC e jumped off the seat and set course, Uncle would let the trap door op
2 CONC en and out would tumble these hounds and locate where she was headed
2 CONC . Then the little dog would come back to the rig and Uncle would tak
2 CONC e off after them. He would try to get in on the kill as he did not wan
2 CONC t the coyote to be torn to pieces by the hounds. I am sure he did thi
2 CONC s kind of hunting mainly for fun but there was some price for the pel
2 CONC t and a bounty as the coyote was a pest.
2 CONT The kids all attended South Weyburn School. August was secretary-treas
2 CONC urer for many years and took an active interest in the upkeep of the s
2 CONC chool, as well as the selection of excellent teachers with other membe
2 CONC rs of the school board. The school was not just an education centre bu
2 CONC t was the meeting place for all social events as well.
2 CONT You can be sure your grandfather was a good and interesting man. He ha
2 CONC d many friends and was always willing to do right. As far as I know h
2 CONC e never had anything to do with tobacco or booze... he was always a Di
2 CONC rector on the Weyburn Fair board. According to Ione " He spent days tr
2 CONC avelling into Montana and ND nailing up posters. He always looked afte
2 CONC r the Farm Boys and Girls Camp and helped with the stock entries as we
2 CONC ll."&nbsp;&nbsp; "At the fair he wore a big "Director" button with pri
2 CONC de and came around to make all welcome. he and my Dad would see to i
2 CONC t that all the relatives and our friends got our share of rides on th
2 CONC e ferris wheel and merry-go-round." At one time August took an interes
2 CONC t in Percheron horses. He went to Iowa to purchase a team of mares.&nb
2 CONC sp; They were a pair of greys. They were lovely creatures and took man
2 CONC y&nbsp; ribbons at the exhibition.</FONT></DIV> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV

1 NOTE Frances was born in Sauk Centre. She graduated with the first Sauk Cen
2 CONC tre high school class in 1897. She was valedictorian for this event. C
2 CONC opies of the program, class photo, and her speech are in my possession
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1901/2 she married August Peterson. They homesteaded in Ward County
2 CONC , ND near Kenmare. The Larkey's and Orth's ( Augusts sisters) were bot
2 CONC h in the same area at this time.
2 CONT Grandma Peterson came to Canada in 1903. Aunt Ione tells the followin
2 CONC g story -" She arrived during a violent rainstorm.  Having made the ac
2 CONC quaintance of another Mrs. Pederson on the train they took rooms at th
2 CONC e Hotel while waiting for their husbands to come for them. When the de
2 CONC sk clerk came to their room and said a Mr Peterson had just arrived fo
2 CONC r his wife, they were both most anxious that it be their husband. Moth
2 CONC er was the lucky one and the other lady burst into tears when she lef
2 CONC t .  The house from the homestead was moved into Weyburn on what is no
2 CONC w Government Road. It was there that Stella was born. The house ha
2 CONC d a large kitchen and bedroom downstairs, and a ladder on the wall t
2 CONC o a room upstairs for closet space or for anyone without a place to sl
2 CONC eep, as no one was ever turned away."  All the children were born in W
2 CONC eyburn, Saskatchewan area. The family attended the Baptist Church in W
2 CONC eyburn.  After August's death(1937) she sold the farm and moved into W
2 CONC eyburn with Ione. 
2 CONT She was a tiny woman (no more than 5 foot tall) who always wore an apr
2 CONC on at home. She always put on her good apron (usually a patterned cott
2 CONC on, I expect home-made) after the morning work was done. I (Lil) remem
2 CONC ber her sitting in a rocking chair. She would always stand up to see h
2 CONC ow big we had grown, and seemed proud of her tall grandchildren. She h
2 CONC ad a funny sort of giggle/laugh. There were always cookies and tea a
2 CONC t Grandma's house.
2 CONT 
2 CONT All her grandchildren will agree that she was such a kind and loving G
2 CONC randma. She always had time for us and made us all feel special. We al
2 CONC ways cherished visiting her, or having her come to visit us. Her broth
2 CONC er, Fay Hoffman, and his wife Edna, lived in Moose Jaw, a few miles we
2 CONC st of Weyburn, but that was all the family she had in Canada.
2 CONT 
2 CONT One summer many years ago, her sister, Minnie was coming for a visit w
2 CONC ith another sister and her husband. When they got to Minnie's to pic
2 CONC k her up, in July, mind you, she had her winter coat and boots ready
2 CONC . They asked her why, and she replied, that Frankie (Grandma's nick na
2 CONC me with her siblings), lives in an igloo, doesn't she?
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ione made sure she made lots of trips to Minnesota to see her family
2 CONC , especially when her daughter, Stella, became widowed. Her sisters an
2 CONC d their families lived in Sauk Centre and Duluth, so all would be visi
2 CONC ted, and there were lots of pictures taken during these visits!!
2 CONT 
2 CONT Grandma and Ione moved from the farm when Grandpa passed away. They li
2 CONC ved in an apartment in the Co-op block for many, many years, then abov
2 CONC e Vogel's Barber shop for a while, then in the staff housing at the ho
2 CONC spital for a short time, while Ralph had the house built at 228 Govern
2 CONC ment Road, and they lived there for many years. Grandma enjoyed the ho
2 CONC use and yard. She was very happy when Ralph and Ione finally married a

2 CONT Dear Madam:
2 CONT In view of the very uncertain financial conditions at the present tim
2 CONC e and also owing to the very extensive reduction of insurance carrie
2 CONC d throughout the Province, we have decided to make a reduction in sala
2 CONC ries dating from January 1st next. In this connection the reduction wi
2 CONC ll be paid into a Reserve Account and at the end of 1932 if the busine
2 CONC ss transacted is sufficient to enable us to replay the reduction o
2 CONC r a proportion thereof, it will be paid out to you in the form of a bo
2 CONC nus. Your salary therefore will be $85.  a month from January 1st next
2 CONC .
2 CONT While we regret having to take this step, we feel in view of prevailin
2 CONC g conditions it is advisable to make this reduction as from the firs
2 CONC t of the year rather than find ourselves in the position later on in t
2 CONC he year of having to make a proportionately much heavier reduction i

2 CONT "...Ione was an avid sports fan, especially in the years Ralph playe
2 CONC d baseball and hockey; this interest in sports was a great source of e
2 CONC njoyment to her while confined to a nursing home. Ione spent all her w
2 CONC orking career at the Saskatchewan Hospital from which she retired in 1
2 CONC 966 after 35 years of service.    She was a lifetime member of Calvar
2 CONC y Baptist Church...After her retirement Ione enjoyed taking her friend
2 CONC s and relatives for a stay at White Bear Lake..."
2 CONT SOURCE: Lil, June and Jim
2 CONT Ione grew up on the farm south of Weyburn and after graduating from So
2 CONC uth Weyburn School, went to Regina to take a secretarial course at bus
2 CONC iness college, and returned to work at the Saskatchewan Hospital , i
2 CONC n Weybrn where she eventually became Bursar. Lil can remember going wi
2 CONC th Dad to visit her there - we called it the "mental" hospital. Keys a
2 CONC nd clanging doors were more reminiscent of a prison. She can remembe
2 CONC r it always smelled of urine.  She worked there for 35 years, retirin
2 CONC g in 1966.
2 CONT Aunt Ione was a small woman. her one vanity for many years was to dy
2 CONC e her hair as she inherited the "early-grey" gene that curses both me
2 CONC n and women in our family.  She took loving care of her mother from th
2 CONC e time of her Dad's death until Grandma passed away.  They often trave
2 CONC lled together to Minnesota to visit Stella and  Grandma's sisters.  So
2 CONC mehow we think they were as much friends as mother and daughter.
2 CONT The great love of Ione's life was Ralph. She adored him and they wer
2 CONC e a couple for many years before their marriage which she told Lil wa
2 CONC s the happiest day of her life.  Grandma and Ione would go to all Ralp
2 CONC h's baseball games and watch him pitch. Ione had a great fondness fo
2 CONC r baseball and hockey which she has passed on down to some of her niec
2 CONC es!! In later years Ralph and Ione would often travel to Minneapolis t
2 CONC o take in the baseball games there. After Ralph died, Ione made some t
2 CONC rips abroad, and the trip to Australia and New Zealand was a favorit
2 CONC e of hers.
2 CONT Ione was a member of the Calvary Baptist Church all her life. She look
2 CONC ed after the typing of the bulletin for the service on Sunday. In thos
2 CONC e days a stencil had to be cut on the typewriter (no errors, or spel
2 CONC l check!!) then she would take it down to the church and run it off o
2 CONC n the "Gestetner" copier, which, trust me, was nothing like the ones w
2 CONC e have today. They were labor intensive and temperamental!! She did th
2 CONC is for 30 some years!!
2 CONT Ione moved from the house to an apartment at 7 Douglas Road where sh
2 CONC e lived for many years. Not many apartments have from and back doors
2 CONC , but hers did!! There was a big pine tree outside her bedroom windo
2 CONC w and the doves would nest there, and she quite enjoyed them.
2 CONT After her retirement, Ione purchased a cottage at White Bear Lake, whe
2 CONC re she had spent many fond hours as a young lady. This was a great sou
2 CONC rce of enjoyment for her, asking her friends out for the weekend. Blan
2 CONC che and Ione's friend, Erma Worden spent many fun weekends there. Jun
2 CONC e recalls that she liked it out there too, but found there were too ma
2 CONC ny jobs that needed doing!!
2 CONT As Ione's emphysema worsened and she became tethered to an oxygen tank
2 CONC , she knew it was time to move to the nursing home. This was hard on h
2 CONC er as she had to sell her furniture, etc., but Audrey and Neil were ri
2 CONC ght there helping her and looked after her at the auction sale. She wa
2 CONC s not all that happy at the nursing home, but knew that she was just g
2 CONC oing to get worse! Finally late in the fall of 1991 her breathing beca
2 CONC me worse. Just before Christmas she entered the hospital and June wa

2 CONT Anders early life in Sweden is fairly well documented. He moved aroun
2 CONC d a lot probably working as a farm hand. They appear to have had two c
2 CONC hildren in Sweden, both of whom must have died perhaps this would be m
2 CONC otive enough to start over. There is also a family story that a chil
2 CONC d died of dehydration on the boat coming over to America - the story c
2 CONC laims this as Martin but I have proof Martin was born in MN - unless h
2 CONC e was the second Martin. I have never been able to prove this either w
2 CONC ay. The actual emigration papers from Sweden are fairly extensive an
2 CONC d list only Anders and Elna.(utflyt papers dated 18 Nov 1872,(LDS fil
2 CONC m # 83099). I also have the original of Anders' "Declaration of Intent
2 CONC ion" dated 21March 1873. This states that they first arrived in the U
2 CONC S May 1, 1872.(Somehow these dates don't jibe but they are as reported
2 CONC .) From this point on Anders Persson becomes Andrew Peterson.
2 CONT From the various census I gather that Andrew worked as a farm hand an
2 CONC d laborer. I have located two Land Patents in Todd County - #339 and #
2 CONC 167.&nbsp; They first moved to the Kandota area of Todd County and lat
2 CONC er to Sauk Center area.

2 CONT Elna (variously referred to as Ellen, Anna, Elinor) came to the Unite
2 CONC d states in 1869-72 with her husband Andrew. Andrew applied for citize
2 CONC nship immediately as he had to have signed a Declaration of Intentio
2 CONC n before he could apply for a homestead. As many other women, Elna nev
2 CONC er applied until 1905. I suspect that she had to have US citizenship t
2 CONC o emigrate once more to Canada. I have her original certificate date
2 CONC d July 10, 1905 and granted by the Clerk of County Court for Ward Coun
2 CONC ty, ND. 
2 CONT After Andrew's death, Ellen, who was a good cook, kept boarders. Accor
2 CONC ding to a letter from Peggy Mustard, one of her cousins (twin boys o
2 CONC f her mother's sister Marna) gave or loaned the money to her to buy th
2 CONC e house. I know that one of the brothers (family stories suggest tha
2 CONC t the brothers went to the Klondike, one died, the other eventually re
2 CONC turned to Sweden) was there at the time as he signed the papers and pa
2 CONC id for the funeral at the Schad Funeral Home.&nbsp; The 1895 census al
2 CONC so states that she was a rug weaver. In 1896, Ellen, August and the tw
2 CONC o girls moved to a farm in Ward County, ND (several miles from Kenmare
2 CONC ). I have recently "found" Land patents in Ward county (Township 155-
2 CONC N Range 83W of the 5th parts of Sections 11, 15, 21 &amp;22) for all t
2 CONC hree families- Orth, Peterson and Larkey.&nbsp; In a story, hand writt
2 CONC en for me by Muriel Larkey Hajek, she continues" At the turn of the ce
2 CONC ntury there was a great deal of talk about going west and north. A R
2 CONC R had been built and that was what it took for the young country to ex
2 CONC pand. Canada had propaganda out and for $10.00 you could get a homeste
2 CONC ad on the best grass land and be given three years to meet the require
2 CONC ments... By this time grandma's children were married. Mary's husban
2 CONC d (Orth) , a butcher who had a small farm did not go to Canada and Gra
2 CONC ndma (Ellen) stayed with her. By 1903, August, Charley Stuart (a frien
2 CONC d) and George Larkey were pioneers in{ a new country} ...".
2 CONT According to Helen Orth Theis in a letter dated 19 May, 1988 - "Grandm
2 CONC a Peterson was with us on mother's homestead when she died suddenly o
2 CONC f a brain hemorrhage at the age of 72.&nbsp; Mother went out to feed h
2 CONC er setting hens and Grandma was washing the breakfast dishes. When mot
2 CONC her came back, Grandmother was lying on the floor near the high chai
2 CONC r that Della was in. Grandma was buried at Kenmare but later in the fa
2 CONC ll her body was removed to a final resting place in Sauk Centre when U
2 CONC ncle August and Aunt Tillie could leave their farms in SK to go to Sau
2 CONC k Center for the burial beside grandfather and Martin...Aunt Tillie an
2 CONC d Mother were talking about the cold windy day of that burial in Sau
2 CONC k Centre and I reminded them of the red shawl that they had hung ove
2 CONC r the window of the cab. They were surprised I should remember that a
2 CONC s I was only 4 1/2 at the time". John Orth died suddenly in 1912 and M
2 CONC ary and her daughters moved to Weyburn circa 1913 to be near her siste
2 CONC r Tilly and brother August.</FONT></DIV></FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>

2 CONC t and married a young butcher named John Orth. They had a business an
2 CONC d a small farm and decided not to venture to Canada with the rest of h
2 CONC er siblings. Mary kept her Mom with her in ND and it was in her home t
2 CONC hat she died. it must have been very difficult for her without her fam

2 CONC or a number of years. He was connected with the Kellers for a period o
2 CONC f twenty years.

1 NOTE SOURCE: ROLLING HILLS REVIEW: HISTORY OF CRESTWYND
2 CONT Mr Hoffman was born in Sauk Centre, Minnesota, in 1888. In 1907, at th
2 CONC e age of 18, he came to Weyburn, Saskatchewan. He travelled from Weybu
2 CONC rn, west of Assiniboia, to Valor where he settled. At this time a pree
2 CONC mption came up and he went to Wllowbunch to file on it.There were no r
2 CONC ailways then so travel was hard and slow.
2 CONT (According to certified copies in my possession, Fay homesteaded at SE
2 CONC 1/4  34-7-2-W2nd( Limerick area, near Moose Jaw. He also applied fo
2 CONC r a preemption on NE1/4 27-7-2-W 2nd.   By 1911 he had broken about 7
2 CONC 0 acres on his homestead, and 53 on the preemption, and had 6 horses
2 CONC . He had a 14 x 22 lumber home and stable and hen house, and 2 granari
2 CONC es. L.H.)
2 CONT In order to build a shack he had to go all the way to Weyburn to get l
2 CONC umber. These trips took four and a half days each and they had to mak
2 CONC e five trips. In the night-time they had to sleep under the wagons.
2 CONT In the early days the nearest doctor was at Wllowbunch and the Mountie
2 CONC s came around every two weeks to see that the people were getting alon
2 CONC g all right.  Their neighbor smashed his finger so Mr Hoffman took hi
2 CONC m to the doctor in Wllowbunch and had it taken care of. This was 70 mi
2 CONC les which is quite a way for a wagon in one day.
2 CONT Mr Hoffman only had one team of horses so he hired men with oxen to br
2 CONC eak up forty acres for him. This cost Mr. Hoffman $4.00 per acre.
2 CONT There were no settlers at all on the trail to Weyburn but two big pile
2 CONC s of Buffalo bones on the side of the road marked half way.  On the la
2 CONC st one of their trips a mare had a colt and Mr Hoffman had to leave i
2 CONC t behind at his brother-in-law's at Weyburn.
2 CONT Mr Hoffman was married to Edna McIntyre from Duluth, Minnesota, on Fe
2 CONC b 25, 1918. Mr Hoffman went to college after the eighth grade to lear
2 CONC n a bookkeeping course which later helped him in his farming.
2 CONT They sold their farm in Valor and went to the states in 1924. They the
2 CONC y worked for the park department in Duluth. They came back to Canada i
2 CONC n 1930 and lived on a farm about 7 miles west of Crestwynd. They staye
2 CONC d there for eighteen years. When they were at Valor they farmed a hal
2 CONC f section of land and when they were at Crestwynd the also had a hal
2 CONC f section. In 1945 they bought their first tractor but up until then h
2 CONC ad a two horse drill and everyone used it. In 1945 their crop was froz
2 CONC en when it was all up and they were told that it would never come bac
2 CONC k - but it did and it was the best crop ever... Mr Hoffman was 78 whe
2 CONC n he retired. he was the youngest in the family, having five older sis
2 CONC ters...Mr and Mrs Hoffman had two sons, Durell and Donald, the forme
2 CONC r is still living...

2 CONC e spread on this occasion. This event was a highlight in Ione's life
2 CONC . The ceremony took place in North Battleford, and Ralph's niece accom

2 CONT "For a man who has just  been posthumously named one of the first indu
2 CONC ctees into the Saskatchewan Baseball Hall of Fame, long-time Weyburn P
2 CONC itcher, Ralph Hogg may appear a little out of place in the hockey phot
2 CONC o accompanying this story. But to those who knew Mr Hogg's shyness an
2 CONC d his wish to avoid the limelight... the miracle is that any photo exi
2 CONC sts of him at all..."I think it's wonderful...and Ralph would has appr
2 CONC eciated the gesture. But he would not have gone to the banquet" (sai
2 CONC d Ione), "He played for the love of the game, but he didn't want all t
2 CONC his palaver."... Ralph's love of baseball began when he was a boy grow
2 CONC ing up in Moosomin, where he moved with his family at the age of thre
2 CONC e from his birthplace at Wapella...9his0 skill as a pitcher was develo
2 CONC ped early in his career and he used to be called to play for Brandon o
2 CONC ccasionally...He started playing senior baseball at the age of 16 on t
2 CONC eams in Moosomin and Kipling. He played in the Virden-Brandon-Moosomi
2 CONC n Oak Lake League in 1929 and later put in a season with the Regina Yo
2 CONC ung Liberals before coming to Weyburn in 1931. But it was hockey , no
2 CONC t baseball that brought Mr Hogg to Weyburn...Though the lineup change
2 CONC d almost annually, Ralph Hogg remained a mainstay of the team and wa
2 CONC s said to be instrumental in leading the Beavers to the provincial fin
2 CONC als in 1935 and 1936...It may never be known why Ralph Hogg declined t
2 CONC o become a professional hockey player but his reputation as "Iron Man
2 CONC " Hogg on the pitcher's mound may have had something to do with it..."
2 CONC I think Ralph liked pitching baseball because you had to use your head
2 CONC : you were in control of the game...You had to know how everybody on t
2 CONC he other team played."...Ralph became known as a strike out artist ear
2 CONC ly on. He led the team to a number of league championships over the ye
2 CONC ars and a provincial Championship in 1937. In a memorable game in Indi
2 CONC an Head in the late 40's he pitched 19 innings to defeat a Regina team
2 CONC . By 1951 he had two no hitters to his credit and held a record of 1
2 CONC 9 strikeouts in nine innings. More than once he pitched an entire seas
2 CONC on without a loss...Known as a gentleman among athletes, Mr Hogg was a
2 CONC lso well liked as a member of the business community in Weyburn. Havin
2 CONC g started out working for the Rick Smith Coal Company in the 1930's, M
2 CONC r Hogg bought the Service Hardware along with partner Tommy Marshall
2 CONC . Mr Marshall eventually was replaced in the partnership by Alex Monte
2 CONC ith, who also sold out his share to Mr. Hogg later on. He operated th

2 CONT Mary B. Dunsmoor , Editor
2 CONT 
2 CONT I was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in 1846.  My father and mothe
2 CONC r were John and Mary Hoffman. From Pittsburgh we moved to Indiana whe
2 CONC n I was too young to remember it. My earliest remembrance is of goin
2 CONC g to camp-meeting in Indiana when I was four or five years old. My bro
2 CONC ther and I were baptized in the Presbyterian Faith.  After the ministe
2 CONC r had sprinkled us both I took out my handkerchief and carefully wipe
2 CONC d off John's face.
2 CONT When I was a little girl I played and did errands and worked in my gar
2 CONC den.  We did not have dolls and toys except rag dolls, but we played "
2 CONC keep house" and "Lady go to see."
2 CONT We moved to Minnesota and I started going to school.  The school hous
2 CONC e was a little old log house of one room.  The boys sat on one side o
2 CONC f the house and the girls on the other.  We learned to read out of th
2 CONC e speller.  From that I went to the second reader.  There was a littl
2 CONC e boy about 8 years old that called me his "Little Maid' and every on
2 CONC e in the school called me "Columbus' Little Maid."  I was very proud o
2 CONC f it.
2 CONT In the Fall evenings I helped my father make sauerkraut.  We fille
2 CONC d a barrel with it every Fall.  We had all kinds of wild fruit, and th
2 CONC e Indians sold us cranberries and wild rice from the marshes.
2 CONT When I went to Sunday School I had about three miles to walk so I too
2 CONC k my nice shoes and white stockings in my hand until I got within a mi
2 CONC le of the Church.  Then I would sit down and put them on.  We wore ver
2 CONC y full skirts and pantalets.  When they began to wear hoop skirts I wa
2 CONC nted one but my father said I never should wear one.  I went to the wo
2 CONC ods and got me some wild grape vines and boiled them so they would b
2 CONC e soft, then I ran the vines in a skirt and one Sunday morning I cam
2 CONC e down stairs with my new hoop skirt on.  Father looked at me and said
2 CONC , "My goodness child! If you've got to wear a hoop skirt, you shall ha
2 CONC ve a decent one."  So I got a nice new hoop-skirt.
2 CONT When I was twelve years old I went to help out a neighbor's family i
2 CONC n time of sickness and worked three weeks.  When I got through they ha
2 CONC ve me a little white pig and I carried it in my arms two miles throug
2 CONC h the woods.  I was so afraid an old Indian would jump out and take i
2 CONC t away from me!  But I got it home and my father said he would feet i
2 CONC t for me until Fall.  They they killed it and it made 300 lobs. of Por
2 CONC k.
2 CONT Our home was a log house, a story and a half high, two rooms downstair
2 CONC s and two up. One time the Sioux Indians were at war with the Chippewa
2 CONC 's and my father let the Sioux tribe stay in our kitchen at night.  Th
2 CONC ey slept on the floor so when we crossed the room we had to step ove
2 CONC r them.  When I awoke one cold morning I was much surprised to fin
2 CONC d a big old squaw had come upstairs and climbed into bed with me.  I a
2 CONC sked her why she had done so and she said she was cold. This was jus
2 CONC t before the Civil War and my father had always been good to the India
2 CONC ns. They threatened to kill off all of the white women and children af
2 CONC ter the white men had gone to war.  When the Civil War started we buil
2 CONC t a fort of tamarack poles, and then the State sent a Company of soldi
2 CONC ers to guard us.
2 CONT There was a hotel inside the stockade and little cabins all around it
2 CONC . I worked in this hotel for twenty-five cents a week and I worked awf
2 CONC ully hard.  I saved the money that I earned and bought me a calico dre
2 CONC ss.  I had to pay forty cents a yard and it took ten yards to make th
2 CONC e dress. I was very proud of that dress. We put all of the little chil
2 CONC dren up in the loft of one of the cabins on beds on the floor and we t
2 CONC ook turns sitting up at night to watch them so they would not roll dow
2 CONC n the stairs which had no railing. The old men that were too old to g
2 CONC o to war, stayed and protected us from the Indians.  They used muzzle-
2 CONC loaded guns. We poured the lead into a skillet and melted

2 CONT 
2 CONT I don't know exactly when or where Thomas W. Hoffman died but based up
2 CONC on all the information I could find, it appeared to be before 1902 i
2 CONC n Seattle, Washington.  - certainly sometime before the marriage of An
2 CONC na (Anne) Elizabeth Gideon Hoffman to John Richardson on 20 Septembe
2 CONC r 1917. There is no mention of Thomas W. Hoffman in the obituary of La
2 CONC vina Martin Gideon on 13 April 1902 - it could be that he died befor
2 CONC e then.  Perhaps a request for a death certificate from the State of W
2 CONC ashington for Thomas W. Hoffman would help clear up this mystery.

2 CONC t appears that there was a daughter, Mary A., born about 1877 and sinc

2 CONC man) Interviewed February 4, 1937
2 CONT 
2 CONT Anna Gideon was born on June 3, 1853 in Illinois. Her parents, Armstea
2 CONC d and Lavina (Martin) Gideon, were natives of Ohio.  The family consis
2 CONC ted of three children, Anna, Alice and George.  An un-named girl die
2 CONC d in infancy. When Anna Gideon was about three years of age her parent
2 CONC s moved to Iowa where they remained about six years when they remove
2 CONC d to Minnetonka, Minnesota. The family was living at Minnetonka at th
2 CONC e time of the Indian outbreak and George Gideon enlisted in the army
2 CONC .  He was killed by Indians who ambushed his company while it was bein
2 CONC g transferred from one camp to another.
2 CONT There were many horrible deeds committed by the Indians to drive the w
2 CONC hite people from their hunting grounds.  Stories were told of babies b
2 CONC eing placed in ovens to roast and women's hands nailed to their tabl
2 CONC e with food placed just beyond reach. Every so often the white settler
2 CONC s would be warned of an Indian attack and they would hastily leave the
2 CONC ir homes and goods and go to an island fort where they could defend th
2 CONC emselves from the attacking Indians.  The Indians would not appear an
2 CONC d the settlers returned to their homes to find their food supplies sto
2 CONC len. These robberies were usually committed by white people but the In
2 CONC dians were of course blamed for them. After the Sioux War Armistead Gi
2 CONC deon brought is family to Osakis, Minnesota where he took a homestea
2 CONC d in 1866.  They came by covered wagon and brought a
2 CONT few cows with them.  At the time Osakis had one store and one restaura
2 CONC nt and the next year a school house was built.
2 CONT Armistead Gideon erected a log cabin from trees on his homestead.  H
2 CONC e split clap boards from the logs to be used as roofing.  These clapbo
2 CONC ards served admirably for the first winter but during the summer the
2 CONC y dried out and warped and that winter the snow always blew into the c
2 CONC abin.  But, Anna (Gideon) Richardson says, "We suffered less from th
2 CONC e cold than people do now."
2 CONT Armistead Gideon was a plasterer, broom-maker, and blacksmith all of w
2 CONC hich trades he used to make a living for his family.
2 CONT Anna Gideon married for her first husband Tom Hoffman the son of Joh
2 CONC n C. and Mary Hoffman, pioneer residents of Ashley township.  To thi
2 CONC s union were born ten children three of whom are living, viz.: Mary (H
2 CONC offman) Evans, of Sauk Centre, Minnesota; Naomi, of North Dakota; Effi
2 CONC e (Hoffman) LaRue of
2 CONT Washington.

2 CONC ears on a farm in the immediate vicinity of Minneapolis, from which h
2 CONC e finally removed with his family to Los Angeles, California in 1873
2 CONC , where he soon after died. He was one of the early settlers of Hennep

2 CONC , Mrs. Roth obtained a few acres of land and built for herself and fam
2 CONC ily a small home in Hudson township on the north shore of Maple Lake
2 CONC . Here her children grew to manhood and womanhood. They were not eas
2 CONC y years. In the beginning the children were small and pioneering condi
2 CONC tions prevailed. One evening when Mrs. Orth went for the cows in the u
2 CONC nfenced timber around the lakes, she got lost. Throughout that dark, c
2 CONC old, rainy, night she kept walking in order to keep as warm as possibl
2 CONC e. At daybreak she heard the cowbell and found the herd not far from w
2 CONC here she had spent the night. This is just one instance of the many ha
2 CONC rdships endured. But they made a hardy, self-reliant, woman, sympathet
2 CONC ic too, from what she herself had gone through. To those who knew he
2 CONC r she was lovingly known as "Grandma".
2 CONT In 1914 she moved to Forada to make a home for her blind, aged father
2 CONC . The past dew winters she has lived with her daughter in Glenwood, ot
2 CONC herwise Forada has been her home since.
2 CONT Mrs Roth is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Byron T. Emerson, (Hattie
2 CONC ) of Minneapolis, and Mrs. Grace Torrens, Glenwood; and one son, Georg
2 CONC e Roth of Villard. The elder son Clarence died in Washington in 1912
2 CONC . There are also surviving 15 grandchildren and twenty one great grand
2 CONC children; two brothers, Frank Frederick of Akley, MN and Charles Frede
2 CONC rick of Chicago and three sisters, Mrs Sarah Prodger, and Mrs. G.R. Tr
2 CONC embly of Olympia Oregon, and Mrs Effie Junkin of Oregon City, Oregon.
2 CONT The funeral services Were conducted from the Congregational Church Gle
2 CONC nwood, by Rev. Broem, pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Forada, o
2 CONC f which church Mrs Roth was an active member. Rev Broem was assisted b
2 CONC y Rev Olmstad of the Congregational Church. Music was furnished by th
2 CONC e Congregational choir. Six grandsons were pall bearers: Lester and De
2 CONC lbert Torrens, Wallace Russell and Ward Roth, and Waldo Emerson. Inter
2 CONC ment was made in the Glenwood Cemetery.
2 CONT Relatives from away who attended the funeral were: Mr and Mrs Byro

1 NOTE &nbsp;Very little is known about Samuel. He is referred to in David Sm
2 CONC ith's will as "Samuel Smith son of Claudius". Family tradition has alw
2 CONC ays claimed that Samuel was son of Claudius. Since few folk seem willi
2 CONC ng to claim a relationship with Claudius, and Samuel, in spite of th
2 CONC e fact that he was on opposite sides of the Revolution did, and he i
2 CONC s mentioned thusly in David's will,&nbsp; I assume this claim to be tr
2 CONC ue. The following is the best information I have found on Samuel.(my e
2 CONC xceptions are noted) <p>SOURCE: Meta Smith Bush, "Smith and Allied Fam
2 CONC ilies" 
2 CONT &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Samuel Smith, Son of Claudius, is a person co
2 CONC mparatively unknown...The date of his birth is not known...in the 179
2 CONC 0 Census Samuel's family consisted of two males over 16, three males u
2 CONC nder 16, and three females. That would mean that Samuel and his wife h
2 CONC ad one son over 16, three under sixteen and two daughters. This woul
2 CONC d mean that he was married by 1773 at the latest. At the Cornwall tow
2 CONC n meeting of 1775, he was named "keeper of the path for district 22"
2 CONC , all proving that he was head of his own household before the Revolut
2 CONC ion.&nbsp; This would indicate that he was the oldest son of Claudiu
2 CONC s (I disagree on this point. According to a newspaper account found i
2 CONC n both the Eager and Ruttenber and Clark Histories as taken from the F
2 CONC ishkill Packet, William was the eldest of Claudius' sons. Eager's Hist
2 CONC ory of Orange County, p 563: '...all accounts agree that William, th
2 CONC e oldest, was shot in the mountains in the fall of 1778, by whig scout
2 CONC s sent in pursuit of the gang." Lil). 
2 CONT &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; It is believed that Samuel married Mary Mape
2 CONC s who was the widow of Joshua Broffit. She was the daughter of Henry M
2 CONC apes, born 1737 and his wife Ruth Rumsey. (I have no proof beyond birt
2 CONC h dates of Smith and Broffit children but I am of the opinion that Sam
2 CONC uel was married prior to his marriage with Mary Mapes. The will of Hen
2 CONC ry Mapes made Oct 20, 1812 indicates that Hezekiah Broffit was underag
2 CONC e." Imprimis I give and bequeath to my grandson Hezekiah Braffit the s
2 CONC um of twenty dollars to be paid to him when he shall arrive to the ag
2 CONC e of twenty one years together with the Interest that may arise thereo
2 CONC n which sum of Twenty dollars I direct my son David Mapes to put out a
2 CONC t Interest to the best advantage for the use and at the risque of th
2 CONC e said Hezekiah," This indicates that said Hezekiah was born not earli
2 CONC er than 1791.(1812- 21). We know that Eleanor Holbert, daughter of Sam
2 CONC uel was born 1 June, 1777, and that 
2 CONT James was born circa 1780 and David circa 1781. Their mother could no
2 CONC t have been Mary Mapes. It seems logical to assume that both Samuel an
2 CONC d Mary had previous marriages and that they married fairly quickly aft
2 CONC er the death of Joshua Broffit as they had son Moses circa 1792. - Lil
2 CONC ) 
2 CONT &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Samuel belonged to the 4th Regiment of Orang
2 CONC e county Militia under Col William Allison. He signed the Articles o
2 CONC f Association at Cornwall in 1775. He also appears under Land Bounty R
2 CONC ights, 3rd regiment of Orange County Militia. (His services have bee
2 CONC n verified by the DAR). He must have had strong convictions to fight f
2 CONC or independence in view of the fact that his father and brothers wer
2 CONC e Tory. 
2 CONT &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; He probably lived on or near district 22 befo
2 CONC re the Revolution, but on Dec 27, 1805, he bought 295 acres of mountai
2 CONC n Lot 13 of the Cheesecock Patent. From this tract he later sold off t
2 CONC wo parcels and farmed the rest. He was in possession of this land at t
2 CONC he time of his death. The farm - known locally as the Albert Nadges pl
2 CONC ace- was high on the ridge at the left of the present road from Walto
2 CONC n Lake to Greenwood Lake. At that time, the road was the main road fro
2 CONC m Goshen to New York, passing through the Ramapos. It was in that moun
2 CONC tainous country that Claudius' band had its hiding places. 
2 CONT &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; He was a blacksmith by trade and had his forg
2 CONC e at the farm. At that time the blacksmith was an indispensable perso
2 CONC n in the community for all iron ware was hand forged. Samuel not onl
2 CONC y shod horses and oxen there, but he turned out farming tools - ploug
2 CONC h points for the wooden plows, hoes, axes, nails, as well as househol
2 CONC d utensils. He took part in the political life being named assessor i
2 CONC n 1798. Samuel died in 1836, for his will filed at Goshen was made Jul
2 CONC y 25, 1836 and probated Oct 22 of the same year. 
2 CONT SOURCE: a history of the Smith family received from Terry Hurd. Autho
2 CONC r unknown. 
2 CONT Claudius' son Samuel was, probably, ( other sources - Eager and Rutten
2 CONC ber and Clark, seem to indicate that William was the eldest) the firs
2 CONC t born of his 4 sons for he was old enough in 1775 to be appointed pat
2 CONC hmaster of District 22 which was one of the lots laid out in Charles C

2 CONC n the present villages of Monroe and Greenwood Lake, probably near Dut

2 CONT David Smith, son of Samuel Smith and Mary Broffit nee Mapes was born i
2 CONC n 1781. (Note I doubt Mary was his mother- see notes on Samuel) Very l
2 CONC ittle is known about him for he died at an early age. In the weekly pa

2 CONC e at the Newburgh Free Library, is found the following item.- " Fata
2 CONC l Accident - On Monday evening last, Mr David Smith of Southfield, fel
2 CONC l from his horse, on the Blooming Grove Road, about 10 miles from Ne
2 CONC w Windsor, and expired in a few hours. A smooth shod horse and slipper
2 CONC y road occasioned this melancholy catastrophe. The deceased was abou
2 CONC t 23 years of age, and has left a child, the fruit of a first marriage
2 CONC , and a wife to whom he had been allied about six months to mourn hi
2 CONC s early death."
2 CONT This is his short and simple biography. Unfortunately there has been n
2 CONC o record discovered to tell the name of David's first wife. It also se
2 CONC ems probable that the child mentioned did not live long for no trace r
2 CONC emains of its ever existing except for this item.

1 NOTE In her father Henry Mapes Will ( dated 1812) , Hezekiah Braffit, her s
2 CONC on by her first marriage,  is to receive his inheritance when he come
2 CONC s of age. That suggests to me that he was born no earlier than 1791 (1
2 CONC 812-21=1791). From this it is logical to assume that Mary Mapes was st
2 CONC ill married to Braffit as late as 1790. Therefore, she probably wa
2 CONC s a second wife to Samuel Smith (who has at least three children know
2 CONC n to be born before 1790  -ie. Eleanor born 1777) They probably marrie
2 CONC d Circa 1791 as Moses Smith (known to be a son of Mary Mapes Smith wa
2 CONC s born 1792. 
2 CONT Since Mary was not mentioned in the will of Samuel Smith (which was lo
2 CONC ng and precise)  it is probable that she was deceased before 1830 whe
2 CONC n the will was first written. Nor is she mentioned by name in her fath
2 CONC er's will written 1812 - Nor are any of her children by Smith mentione
2 CONC d. It appears that the elder Mapes was not at all pleased with his dau
2 CONC ghter marrying into this family - even if Samuel himself was a Patriot
2 CONC . However it is also possible that Mary and Samuel already had receive
2 CONC d something from the Mapes at the time of their marriage although I ha
2 CONC ve never found any legal record of Land etc changing hands.

2 CONC ved since then on Peter Mickins from Walter Becktel has me thinking th
2 CONC at perhaps she was born much earlier c 1780. That would mean her mothe
2 CONC r was NOT Mary Mapes but Samuel Smith's first wife, whose name is anot
2 CONC her mystery. Add to this, the fact that I cannot find my source for Ha
2 CONC nnah's death. If she indeed died in 1878 she would have been a  woma
2 CONC n of almost 100 years if she was born circa 1780 as I suspect she was
2 CONC .  Her death probably would have been in Ohio or Michigan. She had on
2 CONC e son - James(b. 1818) living in Washington Twp, Lucas Co., Ohio in th
2 CONC e 1880 Census. She had another son - Peter (b. 1828) living in Michiga
2 CONC n. It seems to me that there should be some news report of a woman o
2 CONC f 100 or thereabouts in 1878. It all is VERY tentative, but I put thi
2 CONC s here so someone can correct me.

2 CONT Jan 29, 1993 Letter from Elizabeth S. Smith to thor N Trolsen as trans
2 CONC cribed by Thor Trolsen for Judy Riley
2 CONT I am sending you a copy of material on James McElroy, brother of Alexa
2 CONC nder, which came from Myrtle S. Edwards, a 3rd cousin of mine on the S
2 CONC mith side. I added notes- do not know their source- possibly Elizabet
2 CONC h Horton. I have to get Myrtle interested in working on McElroys, bu
2 CONC t she has several other concerns at present, which take priority and w
2 CONC hich I understand.
2 CONT Also I added two more children for James. Alexander and William, bu
2 CONC t I have no proof that they are children of James. William I found rig
2 CONC ht along in Monroe. Alexander only briefly.
2 CONT I have suspected that possibly some descendant of James had been in co
2 CONC ntact with Elizabeth Horton. Her papers were given to OCGS research ro
2 CONC om. They are being sorted and filed. So far nothing has turned up on M
2 CONC cElroy.
2 CONT Another copy of material on James- one or two- was in Helen Ror Predmo
2 CONC re file. You can see by my note I questioned it. She has your James
2 CONC - a son of James. If the date you have for James is correct and you ca
2 CONC n prove it, I think it rules out that possibility. Mrs Predmore did gi
2 CONC ve a surname for Patience, which neither you nor I had. That may be so
2 CONC mething for you to pursue. If she was indeed a Strong - that could giv
2 CONC e you a Revolutionary War ancestor. On page 3, I copied information fr
2 CONC om DAR Patriot Index on James and also the Abstract of Rev War Pensio
2 CONC n Application for him.
2 CONT If you have trouble understanding my notes, let me know and I will tr
2 CONC y to explain them more clearly. If you succeed in tracing the McElro
2 CONC y family I will be happy to have the information. I think you have t
2 CONC o go further afield than Orange County to do so. Information does tur
2 CONC n up in enexpected places.

1 NOTE To satisfy the dying wishes of her mother, Matilda, Mabel and her sist
2 CONC ers were raised in the Roman Catholic church.  Mabel's confirmation (f
2 CONC irst communion) was delayed by the old German Catholic priest, Fathe
2 CONC r Wagner, who insisted Mabel receive additional training to understan
2 CONC d her circumstances. The family stopped going to the Roman Catholic ch
2 CONC urch when Father Wagner complained they were too noisy. They went to t
2 CONC he Presbyterian church until they met the "good looking" son of the Me
2 CONC thodist minister.  Because of the son, and because the Methodist churc
2 CONC h had a pipe organ (Mabel had a beautiful voice and loved to sing), th
2 CONC e family changed to the Methodist church.  The Lutheran church was nev
2 CONC er considered, since the Lutherans only spoke Danish or Norwegian
2 CONC .     George Laughlin always changed his clothes to go to town.  On on
2 CONC e trip to town, Mabel  noticed Eugene and his brothers wearing their w
2 CONC ork clothes. She remarked to Florence "Don't these 'Grease-Pelts' kno
2 CONC w enough to change their clothes before coming to town." Not long afte
2 CONC r, she was engaged to marry someone, but married the older of the 'Gre
2 CONC ase-Pelts'
