Our May 19 workshop was a success and a learning experience. It was a pleasure to meet Mr. Robert D. Anderson and work with him. The biggest news was and still is our obtaining our non-profit status. As of May 16, 1979 anything you donate to or pay to th~_ society is tax deductible. You must have a receipt of course. This status makes us eligible for a library rate in mailing our exchange quarterlies. We hope that some of you members will feel that you can fill some of the office vacancies. We also hope that we can, through our members efforts, continue to publish an accurate and interesting "genealogical helper." A very special "thank you" to all of you that have helped us to accomplish this. "WHEN IS A MAN EDUCATED?" he "When can look upon the universe, now lucid and lovely, now dark and terrible, with a sense of his own littleness in the great scheme of things and yet have faith and courage. "When he knows how to make friends and keep them, and above all, when he can keep friends with himself. "vlhen he can be happy alone and highminded amid the drudgeries of life. "When he can look into a wayside puaiile and see something besides mud, and into the face of the most forlorn and see something beyond sin. "When he knows how to live, how to love, how to hope, how to pray-glad to live and not afraid to die, in his hands a sword for evil and in his heart a bit of song." --Joseph Fort Newton Copied with permission from "Home Town News" section of the Wichita Eagle Beacon - edited by Frank Good. 3 �MEMOIRS OF AGNES LOVELACE CARR The following is from notes which my grandmother, Agnes Lovelace Carr, who died 9 November 1943, had dictated: My father, Joseph Lovelace, came to Kansas from Pennsylvania in 1853 with his wife and 6 children. His wife died soon after. My mother, Ann Ferguson, emigrated to Massachusetts 'from Scotland in 1851 with her father and 5 brothers and sisters. Her mother had died in childbirth. Her brother came out to Kansas and staked a claim adjacent to Love1aces, and in 1854 he sent for the rest of the family. Ann Ferguson and Joseph Lovelace were married on 5 Oct. 1856. I was born on 6 Sept. 1857. I was so small that they kept me in a cigar box and washed me in a common basin. *** ~** *** Quantrill's Raid--I remember a courier dashing by on a horse with flag in hand hollering, "Get to arms--Quantri11's burning"'Lawrence." We kids were all in the yard, but we quickly climbed an old rail fence and hid. *** *** *** One , time a tribe of 25-50 Indians came by single file on ponies. They wanted a chicken--they were beggars. Father said that if they'd hit a certain chicken with a bow ~ arrow, they could have it. And, he said also, that if this particular Indian ran down a certain chicken, he could have it. The Indian ran after the chicken, lost his blanket, and was wearing only a breech cloth, but he caught the chicken. My little brother, Owen Lovelace, had yellow-gold hair and the Indians liked it and. his beautiful fair skin. One time the Indians stopped by \<1ith nested clothes baskets and offered them for Owen. Mother was scared and wouldn't let Owen .. out of her sight. *** *** From the age of 5 until I was 9, I went to school in a building on a corner of the farm. There were 10 or 12 enrolled. One time a tribe of Indians could be seen coming across the prairie, babies strapped on either side of the pony. Our teacher, Agnes Petrie, locked the doors and commanded the kids to get under the desks. But, when the road turned off, the Indians followed it. They weren't hostile. Then we moved to Lawrence and lived there till I was 15. We1ived in a rented house at the foot of old North College and I went to Central School. Then we moved back to Eudora and I went to school there till I was 17. In 1876 I went to summer school at K.U. and got my certificate to teach. When I went to the Lawrence Superintendent's office to see about a job teaching s'choo1, I was told that a man from Rock Creek had just been in hunting for a teacher. I taught that year at Rock Creek. They had built a room onto the school for teacher. They stored wheat in it in the summer. The first night I spent there, I turned down the 4 �the bed and there was a rat. I turned the sheet on it, grabbed it by the tail and smashed it on a popcorn barrel. I killed him, tied him up, and hung him out whole. One time, as I opened a cupboard which was 6" off the floor, rats scurried away. I grabbed a corn fodder knife and chopped 8 rats dead under the cupboard. S.v. Carr and I went to school together as children. When he was 16 or 17 years old, he went into the depot at Eudora and learned telegraphy. His father, Hubbard Halley Carr, was a lawyer from Ohio and his wife was Sarah Etta Wilford. *** *** *** Grasshoppers--You couldn't step outside except on the bugs. vfuen they left, it was like an eclipse of the sun. They ate all the corn and even tree bark. They came late in the summer of 1874 and ate. The next spring their eggs hatched out of the ground and again they ate everything. They rose up in a body and left in June. We replanted and got a fair crop. *** *** *** Our family moved to Colorado in the summer of 1877. I taught in Colorado City, 1st and 2nd grade $35--2nd year $40. Then my folks moved to Divide and I taught in Divide in 1879. In April 1880 s.v. Carr and I were married. We came back to Kansas as far as Lawrence on the train. We hired a hack to take us to our house in Eudora. The house was all ready and kids had gathered sweet williams and had them in a vase. In November 1881 S.V. took a job ~vith Wells Fargo Express Co. at Pueblo, Colo. When we first got there there was no place to stay. I slept on a couch in the waiting room after everyone went to bed. Leslie was 6 months old. Arkansa~ Maxon, a good old motherly soul, had a fit over Leslie. She had lost her baby while fording the Marais de Cygne, but she was saved. Leslie resembled him. We finally found a house in the railroad yards, in a tough part of town. S.V. had to work late at night; so we offered' Maxons the front room to stay with us. In another month we got a better house and Maxons came along and took care of Leslie. S.V. finally quit the express because of so many figures. He had bad eyes and glasses were no avail. We moved to Rock Vale on the Rio Grande and lived upstairs in the Santa Fe depot. We were 37 miles from Pueblo. I would take the baby and buggy to Pueblo to shop. There were no passenger coaches; so I would ride in the caboose. I would take Leslie and his buggy, and wedge the buggy behind the stqve in the caboose. One time, on a grade, the engine cut the caboose loose--it went one way and the caboose the other, but the caboose got going too fast. I wondered if the brakemen had been left behind; so I climbed out the door on the side and up the ladder to the top after putting Leslie in the buggy. There in the top sat 3 brakemen; so everything was all:right. Without letting them know, I sneaked back down on ,that swaying ladder. 5 �Finally, they got S.V. back to Eudora to be the station agent after the other agent had died. In about 1898 S.V. went to study osteopathy at Des Moines. With 3 little kids, I stayed here in Eudora till he finished. After that, he went to Canada where he made up a practice. I was homesick all the time we were there. Grandpa Hubbard Carr took sick; so S.V. went back to Eudora. The Santa Fe agent wanted to leave; so S.V. stayed in Eudora. I was glad to come home, March 1904. He was at the station 34 years the second time-IS or 20 before. Adell Carr Smith (Mrs. Sheldon Smith); Iowa City, Iowa D. G.

The 1ega 1 descri pti on is two and one-half acres in the SW~ secti·on 18, township 14, range 20. The land on which this cemetery is located was pre-empted by Mr. George W. Bell. The patent is dated August 1,1859. Mr. Bell was killed in the Quantrill raid in Lawrence. Henry Brumbaugh came to Kansas from Ohio and bought this land from Mr. Bell's widow, July 5, 1864. He was a member of the Dunkard Church and deeded two and one-half acres of his farm to the church organization to be used as a churchyard and cemetery. This deed was recorded November 22, 1877 in book 16, page 532. He also puilt a church on this site with his own resources, and is buried in this cemetery which bears his name. He was born January 28, 1814 and died November 7, 1888. ' Henry Brumbaugh was a bachelor and with him lived Daniel \~eimer, born July 4, 1828, died May 8, 1879. Martha, his wife, was born September 3, 1830, died February 7, 1894. One son, Noah Heimer, a bachelor, w~s, born December 2, 1857 and died May 30, 1935. Louis Georgie, a neighbor, lived with the Weimer family and married a daughter, Maggie \~eimer. He \A/as born October 25, 1857 and died August 1937. His wife was born August 8, 1862 and died December 7, 1927. William Georgie, father of Loui~ Georgie, was born July 24, 1828 and died October 31,1911. Louise, his first wife, was born April 30, 1827 and died December 18, 1384. Sarah Ann, his second wife, was born August 21, 1827, and died August 17, 1908. Abraham Rothrock came to Kansas from Pennsylvania in 1856. His home was near that of Henry Brumbaugh. He also was a member of the Dunkard Church and was the first presiding elder in the I State of Kansas. He was shot three times by Quantrill's men, but lived several years afterward; the injuries were, however, the cause of his death. When he was suffering from these wounds, a, neighbor asked him what he would do with Quantrill's men if he , had them in his power. He replied, "I would convert every one of them." He was buried on a plot on his son's farm and later was moved to the Brumbaugh cemetery. He died February 2, 1870 at the age of 73 years. His monument bears the oldest date in the cemetery. t1ary, his wi~e, died December 6, 1893, age 85 years. Of the remaining people buried in this cemetery, little of their biography could be obtained. Following are names and dates taken from the monuments: John M. Henrie, died May 17, 1905, age 49 years. Alexander McCandless, age 71 years. Martha Eberhart, wife of O.G.

Both parents, were of Irish birth, but 'immigrated to America when children. His father, John O'Neil, was a farmer. His mother's family name was Ann Horton. Both were Christians, but liberal in their religious views. They were pioneers in Ohio and occupied a position of high respectability in society. Moses A. O'Neil's early life was such as is common to the sons of farmers, contributing his share of labor on the farm and attending the common school during the leisure months. At the age of seventeen he was sent to the Western Liberal Institute, at Marietta, Ohio, where he acquired a good education. After teaching school for some time and, attending the Institute alternately winter and summer, he began the study of medic:lne with his uncle, Dr. William Horton, at Summerfield, and completed his medical course at Sterling Medical College, Columbus, Ohio. This education was obtained under difficulties, as he was compelled to work at intervals to obtain money for his tuition and other expenses. He commenced the practice of his profession at Kennonsburgh, Nobl~ county, Ohio, in 1856, where he remained four years. He removed to Kansas and located in Douglas county in 1860, and resumed the practice, which he has continued ever since. He has also owned and managed a farm situated near his residence in Black Jack. In the spring of 1864, he made ,a trip overland to Idaho Territory, landing in Boise City, in September, where he remained until the following June, when he entered upon the duties of acting-assistant surgeon of troops operating against the Indian Territory. This position he held until relieved at his own request the following year. He has held various local offices:. In 1862 he was elected county assessor of Douglas county for a term of two years; in 1872, he was chosen state senator from his county. He is a member of Baldwin City Lodge, No.3, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, has passed all the chairs and represented his lodge in the Grand Lodge of Kansas. 29 ( l �· As an agriculturalist, he has long been prominent, and for several years has been a member of the State Bee-Keepers Association, contributing many able articles on bee culture to the journals devoted to that interest. He has also devoted much time to the study of economi¢ agriculture in Kansas, and contributed numerous articles to the various papers of the State on agricultural and kindred subjects. He accepts the principles of the Christian religion, and has always been a liberal contributor to religious enterprises. He, with his family, attends the Presbyterian church. In politics he has always been a Republican. He was married in Douglas county, Kansas, in 1862, to Miss Eleanor Rosebaugh, who was educated at Sewickley Seminary, Pennsylvania. They have two children--Herbert L. and Mary H. O'Neil. Dr. O'Neil spent the first winter of his residence in Kansa~ in hunting, trapping and trading on the plains in ,Southwestern Kansas, and experienced innumerable hardships, having been constantly harrassed by Indians. * * * * *. * * * Oscar Grinman Richards Eudora , Oscar G. Richards was born, January 12, 1836, at Napoleon, Jackson county, Michigan. His father, Xenophon Richards, was a pioneer of the West; was prominent in the Indian wars and a soldier in the Black Hawk war; a man of but fair connnon school education, but of superior mental abilities and the highest moral character; universally respected for his integrity,' generosity and philanthropy, and in every respect an eminently good man; he was of Scotch-English descent. His mother" formerly Samantha Whaley, died when he was quite young, and he only knows of her by tradition. She was one of nineteen children by the same father and mother; belonged to a family of Ohio pioneers, who were noted for their great muscular strength and wonderful powers of endurance; was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, of great piety ana an active Christian, greatly respected by all who knew her. Oscar G. Richards received but a limited education in the schools, which he afterward improved by diligent application, being determined thoroughly to qualify himself for the duties of life. He was reared on a farm in Livingston county, Illinois, and the early years of his life were spent in manual labor in the discharge of his farming duties. At the age of twenty he joined General Lane's forces, as they went through Illinois, under Captain Wm. Strawn, son of Jacob Strawn, then the largest stock-dealer and farmer in the State. With this hardy, independent: band of pioneers he went to Kansas from Illinois, through Iowa, Nebraska, and west of the then settlements in Kansas, to Topeka, on what was known as Lane's road. Mr. Richards drove the first team on the laying out of that road and planted the first stakes. In this patriotic band were such men as Captain Scrambey, of Illinois, Captain <- 30 �Cutler, of Massachusetts, and old John Brown, of Harper's Ferry fame. On .their route, Mr. Richards captured old John Brown under the impression that he was a spy and one of South Carolina Buford's men. When told of what he was suspected, Captain Brown laughed heartily, and told his captors he could teach them anti-slavery sentiments. Pointing to a camp near by, he said, "There are my boys;" but no amount of persuasion could induce Mr. Richards to release what he thought. was a great. prize, until Captain .Brown was brought into General Lane's presence. G~neral Lane well knew the character of the man brought before him, and the incident was the occasion of great merriment both to Captain Bro~ and General Lane,the former of whom, a great admirer of courage, complimented Mr. Richards and his party for their pluck, and said that only to such men would he ever surrender. Mr. Richards was with. the party that besieged Fort Titus, Fort Sanders and Lecompton; was at Black Jack when Clay Pate surrendered to old John Brown; was at Bull Creek when General Lane drove Reid out of the Territory, and at Lawrence when it was besieged by seventeen hundred pro-slavery men, against less than two hundred free-state men, at the time that Governor GearY,went to the rescue. On the restoration of peace, after what was known as the borderruffian war, Mr. Richards went west to near Manhattan, and took a claim, which he tmproved and cultivated. This claim he sold in 1857, and removed to Douglas county, on what was known as the "Shawnee absentfee lands," taking with him a party of twenty-seven immigrants, including his father, st~p-mother, brothers and other relatives. Here he remained ten years engaged in farming and studying law, as he could procure books and find time. At the age of thirty he applied himself very closely to the study of his profession, ·and at the end of three years was admitted to the bar in Douglas county, at the November term, 1869. ' He has heid the office of justice of the peace for several terms in Eudora. He.' is Master of Doric Lodge No. 83, Eudora, Ancient, ·Free and Accepted Masons. He is also connected with the order of Odd Fellows, and is Past Grand of Eudora Lodge No. 42. He joined both orders :in 1868, and has held various positions in each. In his religious views he is . liberal. In politics he is an unwavering Republican, and was always an anti-slavery man; a good ·organizer and effective worker. He was elected in 1878, a member of the Kansas House of Representatives from Douglas county, a position which he still holds. . I He was married, January 8, 1857, to Miss Martha Granger, of Livingston county, Illinois. The issue of this marriage was two children one boy and one girl, both living and in prosperous circumstances. He was married to Miss Sophia Dorathea Mulsow, a German lady, of Eudora, June 12, 1865. They have four children. I ' Mr. Richards is still a resident of Eudora, doing a fair business, a useful man and a respected citizen.

The answer is "not much," especially if you'!e a bill collector, a postman or, heaven help you, looking for someone named Jensen. Consider these national bursts of nominal originality: I Half this nation of 5 million share 14 family names. Sixty percent of Danish names end in "sen." There are only 85,000 family names in the whole nation. The Copenhagen telephone book is of enormous help. Let's say you want to look up a Jensen, Hansen or Nielsen. There are 32,000 of each. And it doesn't exactly help that hundreds of them have ;the same first names. By comparison, the directory in Manhattan, with ,a slightly larger population, has a mere 3,100 Smiths. " It's a national problem the government has been trying to solve since the late 19th century, when there were 9,000 family names for 2.5 million Danes. A 1e,wmaker of that era issued this warning: "This is a national calamity. If we don't act this nation will no longer be known as the Danes, but as the Jensens or Neilsens." Problems arise. The mailman in a small Jutland village could not possibly know for which of the five Carl Petersens letters were meant. So the postmaster forced the villagers to name their streets and assign house numbers for the first time. A current poster appealing for adequate addresseson'all mail depicts a harassed mailman staring at an apartment house name board filled with Jensens. The situation also has led to some inventive titles that have followed their bearers to the graves. Tombstones note the final resting place of "Mr. Managing Director Jensen," lest he be co~fused with "Mr. Unskilled Worker Jensen." But a computer has their number--if not their names--straight. All Danes now have a personal registration number, without which they cannot open a bank account or see a doctor. The irony of all this is that the Danes became Jensens and Nielsens more or less by mistake. Originally they had a rich tradition.of individualized Viking surnames, many unfit for translation. For those. with. only a smatter.ingof Anglo-:-Saxon, meet' .Haro1d Bluetooth, !1agnus Wagarse and good old Ragnva1d Longtwadd1e. . The Danes were slower than other Europeans in establishing regular family names and took to convenient patronymics, making the son of Jens a Jensen and'Nei1's kid a Neilsen. Then the bureaucrats took over to bring administrative order to a growing mess of surnames everybody was inventing. A royal baptismal ordinance in,1828 made it compulsory for all children to be given a lasting family name. 32 �Trouble was, most rural vicars got that all wrong. They insisted on patrynomics--the "sens"--although any name was eligible. Nobody cared much,· however, since the unofficial name--the inventive :one-still was what coupted in the villages. In 1856 a government decree was handed down saying that all family names given since 1828 must be lasting for all future generations. Suddenly, tens of thousands of Danes were stuck with what they had considered inconsequential patronymics. "Irreparable damage was done to a blooming popular name tradition. Thousands of good individual surnames were lost," said Gordon Alboege of the Name Research Institute of the University of Copenhagen. In 1906 the Danish government permitted readoption of lost surnames, but most Nielsens, Jensens, and Hansens just yawned. Some exp:erts say the Danes simply weren't aware of the new possibilities.· But .there was another goof: The decree also said nobody was allowed to :use the 60,000 protected family names. Alboege is lobbying for a name law reform that would allow Danes to take any name already borne by more than 100 living Danes o,r the name of any Danish place. But Georg Soendergaard, a University of Odense lecturer and a Danish ·name ·expert, is not expecting much change. In fact, he says, things will 'get worse. His computer tells the story. The ann~al population growth is 1 to 2 percent, but only .04 p~rcent, or about 20,000, change their names and only 800 make up entirely new names. That means the relative number of new and uncommon names is bound to decline. But why worry? The prime minister is a plain Joergensen and on a 20-memb~r cabinet he has two Hansens and two Jensens, along with an Andersen, an Olsen, a Christiansen, a Jacobsen, a Matthiasen.and a Heinsen.

It's been a 30-year search, says Mr. Brice, a designer pf funerary monuments whose firm d,id the Alabama memorial at Gettysburg and the Cardinal Gibbons monument at the Basilica of the Assumption. It has led h:lm down the trails of history, turning up ancestors by the bushel. Would you believe that Mr. Brice is descended from Marc Antony and Pepin the Short? Or Hildegarde of Swabia (757-782 A.D.)? Or Lady Dodo of Saxony? Or Geoffrey Plantagenet? Or Old King Cole? 36 �Well, he is, says Mr. Brice and so are ten or twenty thousand other Marylanders. The startling Brice genealogy, which family members have been working on for more than 100 years, is embodied as the showcase" 31-page article in Broad Neck Hundred, a graphic and historical quarterly published in Annapolis since 1975. : "I don't want anyone to think I have done all of this myse1:f," says Mr. Brice as he contemplates his multi-branched family tree. A large swath of Brice genealogy, (coupled with another Maryland clan, the Ti1ghmans as in Tench), was worked out by Ethel Brice Duvall, whp died in 1950 at 77 after 60 years of studying family lore. "Ethel l<;new her great-great-great aunt, who was born she, [Elizabeth Brice] in turn, knew her grandfather, John prominent Revolutionary soldier who was born in 1738," Mr. This allowed direct family knowledge to accumulate for six in 1798 and Bricei 3d, the Brice: relates. gener?tions. "Bricesof record go back to the Battle of Crecy [in 1346]'," says the genealogist, who carried out part of his research at England,' s College of Arms. Yet Crecy is not even halfway back through the BriceTilghman history. As set forth in Broad Neck Hundred, the Brice genealogy opens with the Caesars, runs through Julia and Marc Antony 2d and Marc Antony 3d, and wife Octavia. Their great-grandaughter was Boadicea, the legendary heroine queen of Britain and her grandson was King "Coe1" as in Old King Cole. "Boadicea wiped out 2.5 Roman legions and there were only four Roman 1egi.ons there," says Mr. Brice, who obviously enjoys his historic sidelights. The merry old soul, however, is still more than 60 generations away from modern titp.es. Brice ancestors dug themselves in as the Merovignian kings of France and lords of Savoy, according to the study. Then, between 689 and 814 A.D., the family really hit one of its high spots. In quick succession comes Charles Martel, called "The Hammer," the warrior Frankish duke who beat back the Arabs at the Battle of Tours; Pepin the Short and Charlemagne, the father of his country. The Norman conquest in 1066 sent numerous Brice ancestors into England and with it alliances with the P1antagenets, with Eleanor of Aquitaine and wicked King John, Robin Hood's favorite heavy. In the Tudor period the family names were from the top, and often beheaded, ranks of society, Beauchamps, Nevi11es, Berke1eys and Despencers, the family history says. Mr. Brice notes that the key figure in getting the Brice-Tilghman "royal line" to America was Dr. Richard Tilghman who emigrated to'the Chester River area from England in 1661, along with a wife, Mary Fox1ey, who was painted, by Sir Peter Le1y. Mr. Brice is ninth in descent.from Dr. Tilghman. It is an odd fact that the Brice-Tilghman line, as traced 37 �back to royalty, has only one female progenitor, Anna Maria Margaret Tilghman who was wife of Judge Nicholas Brice, until y:ou get all the way back 12 generations to Susannah Whetenhall who lived in Tudor England. All the other transmitters of the line were men. This is ,not so odd as it seems, says Mr. Brice. "The borsey line [of Maryland, with which there is a connection to the Bn.ce~ Tilghman line] has gone for 1,000 years without a name change," he reports. To produce his mountain of research, Mr. Brice "corresponded with people allover the country." He used his evenings for most of the work "instead of looking at the boob tube." He estimates he has spent "several years worth of 24-hour days" in developing the tale. A: Dorsey family reunion in 1964 at Hockley near Annapolis was helpful. There were Dorseys from 19 states. "I found 15 of us had the same ancestors." In fact, ancestors and descendants of ancestors surface all the time. "Since I came to Baltimore [in 1971] I have met at least 200 people I'm related to," he reports. i • I Mr. Brice says the bible of early Maryland genealogy is Warfield's chronicle of Anne Arundel county. Also a key source is thei790 first censu~ of Maryland where seven new Brice ancestors surfaced. The genealogist uses the huge, coat-of-arms-emblazoned map of the English royal family, published recently by the College of Arms and sold in Westmirister Abbey among other spots, to prove his p~ints'and dress up all the ancient names with some glamour. "See this," he says as his hand sweeps back into the past. "The most vicious line is the Scotch line. In 15 generations, only t~o died a natural death ... You're not born with this knowledge. You have to cultivate it. All these people had to be vicious before Ch~,istia.nity came along. Who was more vicious than [the Roman Emperor] Claudius? It was a dagger society." Actually~ Mr. Brice says there are 12 interrelated lines leading back to European·royalty among the Colonial famil;tes of Maryland's earliest days. The Brice-Tilghman line is only one of them. The others will be traced, in subsequent issues of Broad Neck Hundred. There is nothing, he says, particularly distinctive about being descended from royalty. Thousands of people are. "Back 38 generations to the time of the Holy Roman Empire your grandparents number in the millions." And what about the bar sinister? The chance that some ance'stor passed off the child of a lover as her husband's? "Hho would know? says the genealogist resignedly. .... .
