�, SPlIllIa TAUS: THE SCHlUBVE! FAMILT
By Phyllis J. Douglas
PUT 3

!~

' - - -------'

William went to Kansas somewhere around 1883. He is enumerated in the home of
Charles (Nannie's brother) arid Mary PROEBSTEL in the 1885 Kansas census. In that
same census, Nancy is in the household of her father, Andrew PROEBSTEL. They are
both listed as single. These two families lived next door to each other.
William and Nannie, as she was called by her family, were married on the 17th of May
1885, in Shawnee Township, Kansas. Their wedding pictures show them to be a
handsome couple.
Nannie and William lived in and around Kansas City, moving several times. In 1899,
William moved eight children and Nannie, expecting number nine, from Kansas to North
Dakota.
Aunt Tillie told the following story about that move: They left Kansas with four wagons,
a carry-all and eight children (5 boys and 3 girls). On the way to North Dakota, Nannie
gave birth to a child in Geddus, South Dakota and they named her Maggie Geddus
SCHRIEVER..
At Cheyenne, South Dakota, while crossing the White River, one wagon came loose and
floated downstream, saved by a bend in the river. It was pulled out ~fthe water, repaired
and made ready to go on. Dad and boys worked at Gedd:us on the railroad and in the
Black Hills in the lumber mills until it warmed up in the spring. Then they went on to
North Dakota.
They joined Ed WYTTENBACK (William's half-brother) in the Black Hills. The
\yyTTENBACHs had two wagons. Then they went on to North Dakota together,
arriving at Valley City in 1901.
In 1902 they moved onto a farm south of Sanborn where three more children, Elmer,
Edna and Annie were born.
William and his family are enumerated on the 1910 Federal Census for Barnes County,
North Dakota. The record says that the enumerations were taken from 21 April, 1910.
On the 22nd of April 1910, Nancy K PROEBSTEL SCHRIEVER died at the age of 47.

That means that the record for this family could have been recorded the day before N annie
died, or for sure it was taken during a time of her death and burial.
When Nannie died, my mother was only five years old and her sister Annie was four.
Mom tells this heartbreaking story. She said that in those days the body was laid out in
the living room before the burial. It was decided that the younger children would not view
their mother's body~ But just before the burial the older girls took the younger children
outside and held them up to a window. From that window they had their last look at their
mother.
After Nannie's death, William said he would never remarry because he did not want his
children to have a stepmother and be treated as he was. The older girls were assigned
roles as "mother" to the younger children and were expected to take care of them
Mother has shared some stories about their life in North Dakota after her mother died. At
one time William decided that he wanted Edna and Annie to go to school in town. So,
Tilly and Em moved to an apartment with Edna and Annie so that the girls could attend
school. Well, this apparently did not work out too good, the older girls were bored and
never stayed home. The younger girls started hanging out in a restaurant owned by
friends of William, after school. Anyway, the activities of the girls was soon reported to
William and he brought them all home. Mom thinks that is when Aunt Susie came to live
with them
The winters in North Dakota are severe and William insisted that a lighted candle be left
on the table by a window so that anyone who may have been out or lost would have a
light to follow to safety. It is that kind of story that tells me that William had strong
feelings for his fellow man. Perhaps because of his childhood without parents, he was
conditioned to care for others in need.
On these long winter nights Aunt Susie and William would sit at the table and talk about
childhood and their life with the WYTTENBACHs.
Their lives were confined to the farm and that also meant that the meals they ate come
from what was produced on the farm Mom tells the story about having weiners, from the
store, maybe once a year. This was a real treat to the younger children so they would play
a game at the meal to see who could make their weiner "last the longest". One time Elmer
had made his last longer than the others and William, not aware of the game the children
were playing, thought that he did not want the weiner so he reached over to Elmer's plate,
forked the wiener and gave it to the dog!

Mom also said that her father did not like "Jam pies." Come to find out, what William
called jam pies were pies that had so little fiUing that he said the two crusts were "jammed
together."
We visited North Dakota and Aunt Maggie in 1976 and she took us out to the farmhouse
where the SCHRIEVER family lived. No one was living there so we were able to walk
through the house with Aunt Maggie describing how the family lived. We went up to the
upstairs rooms where the children slept. This brought to my mind another incident in my
. life. When I complained about having to sleep with Janis (eleven years younger than nie),
Mom told me that it washer feeling that one was lucky to sleep only two in a bed, because
in her family, in North Dakota more people than that shared a bed -- sleeping crosswise.
It humbled me a little.
Aunt Maggie also showed us how they would dig a tunnel through the snow from the
back porch of the house to the barn in the winter and she showed us the window where
the lighted candle was kept.
My daughters Nancy and Kathy had made a trip across country with Mom and Dad a few
years earlier. They also stopped in North Dakota and were thrilled with the stories that
Mom and Aunt Maggie told as they showed them through the house.
Edward WYTTENBACH and his family lived in Valley City and in a sense they were
considered "the rich relatives." They had a real house in town and Ed was a building
contractor. Mom said that he went out at night and played cards. However, they were
very surprised to find out when he died that he had gambled away all of his money and his
wife, Clara, had to go live with a daughter.
Byron and Dorothy SCHRIEVER have among their collection offamily mementos, a
Lexington High School (in Eastern Oregon) graduation announcement for Frank Edward
WYTTENBACH. Frank would have been about 22 years old and he probably traveled
with the POINTER family when they moved to Lexington to farm.

In 1917 William SCHRIEVER moved his family to Missouri. On the 3rd day of June
1918, he purchased from Emma LONGSHORE lots one and two in block 10 in SCOTT
and COLBERN's first addition to the city of Belton, MO.

My mother told me this story about the family move back to Missouri in 1917. Emma,
Edna and Emma's daughter Rose went on the train. Annie, Elmer, Maggie and Dad went
in a Model T. The trip took eight days. Charles and Fred brought the spring wagon with
bedding and dishes.
In 1920, William SCHRIEVER is listed in the 1920 census for Cass County, Missouri.
Living with him are Edna, age 13; Annie, age 12; Maggie, age 19; Elmer, age 16; Emma
SMITH and granddaughter Rose SMITH. Actually, Edna would have been 14 and Annie
13. The census was taken previous to their birthdays that year. The census also said that
William's mother and father were born in Ohio - one more indication that no one in the
family knew anything about their father's parents.
William SCHRIEVER died on February 25, 1930 at 73 years of age. He is buried in
Sanborn, North Dakota. His obituary in the Cass County Democrat, Harrisonville,
Missouri and dated Thursday, March 6, 1930:

"Mr. SCHRIEVER was a good citizen -- he was a man of very few
words but a deep thinker. He was a loving father and deeply
respected by his children and his many friends. "
I believe these words really describe William SCHRIEVER who I just recently have
become acquainted with.

Hanry Bugana SCHlmVBI
Henry, the oldest of William and Nannie's children was born 30 Nov. 1885 in Kansas City,
Kansas. He was obviously named for William's brother, who was probably named for
Frederick's father. I do not know where "Eugene" came from I don't know much about
Henry except that he spent many years in Pendleton, Oregon farming. Henry never
married. He died 2 February 1952 in Pendleton, Oregon and he is buried there.

Harry ByrDn SCHlmVBI
Harry was born 25 February 1887 in Kansas City, Kansas. I can't find a Harry in either
the SCHRIEFER or the PROEBSTEL family. Perhaps Byron came from Nannie's sister's
husband Byron CLARK. Harry was in the Army during World War I and was stationed in
France. Later after the war he went to eastern Oregon to work on a farm There he met
and married Myrtle Magdalena McNEIL on 28 October 1925. Harry and Myrtle had
three children, Jean Marie, born 17 Feb. 1928; Byron Neil, born 20 Aug. 1930 and David

Gordon, born 2 Jan 1933. In 1936 Harry moved his family to Mololla, Oregon. His son,
David, still farms that property. Harry died in Portland, Oregon from Leukemia on 10
May 1957. Myrtle died in Canby, Oregon on 20 Oct. 1986. They are buried in the
Smyrna Cemetery at Yoder, Oregon.

Emma Elizabeth BellRIEVER
Emma was born on 6 July 1888 in Kansas City, Kansas. Emma's name is easy. She was
named fot Emma PROEBSTEL and William's sister Elizabeth. She first married Mike
SMITH in 1915. They had one child, Jeannette Rose, born 29 July 1916. Em became
mother of the family after Nannie died. She moved to Belton, Missouri with the family.
Here she married Sid BELCHER, then later she married John CAMPBELL and lived the
rest of her life in that area. She died 22 August 1972 in Harrisonville, Missouri.

Matilda Louise BellRIEVER
Matilda was born 15 Sep. 1889 in Argentine, Kansas. Matilda, who was called Tillie by
the family, was named for Nannie's mother, Matilda, and her sister Louise. She married
Henry W. SAUER in Valley City, North Dakota on 25 June 1913. They had three
daughters, Grace, born 26 July 1914; Gertrude, born 28 April 1916, and Donna born 27
July 1927. Henry SAUER died 22 July 1944 in North Dakota and Tillie died 16 April
1984 in Portland, Oregon ..

Bus an Gertrude BellRIEVER
Susan, known as Gertie to the family, was born 7 Sept 1894 in Columbia, Kansas. Susan
was obviously named for William's sister. I do not know where the name Gertrude came
from She married Clifford E. JABERG on 7 March 1916 in Sanborn, North Dakota.
Later they moved to Orange County, California. They had three children, William Rollin,
born 27 Nov. 1917; Stella Elizabeth born 12 Oct. 1921; and Edna Angeline, born 8 Oct.
1919. Gertie died from complications of cancer 16 Aug. 1932. Clifford Jaberg died 15
march 1961. They are buried in Fairhaven Cemetery, Santa Ana, CA.

Prederlck William BellRIEVER
Frederick was born 15 Sept. 1895 in Kansas City, Kansas. It is perhaps coincidence, but I
do think that he was named for William's father. And this would indicate that William
SCHRIEVER did know the name of his family and for some reason (perhaps the hurt)

chose to not talk about him. Fred traveled to Kansas City with the family in 1917 and
went to work in the iron works in Argentine (once the silver smelter). He never married.
He died June 1918. The doctor said that it was from complications caused by working in
the smelter.

Arthur lett SCllmVBI
Arthur, or Archie, as he was known by the family, was born 15 March 1896, Prairie
Center, Kansas. Somehow Prairie Center doesn't sound right. I find a Prairie Village.
Who he is named for has me stumped. However, Dorothy SCHRIEVER has a census
record that leads her to believe it is a family name from "way back." Maybe one day
Byron, Dorothy or I will solve it. Archie served in the Navy, probably during World War
I. He married Sarah Lorene NICHOLS around 1934. They had five sons, James William,
born 29 June 1935; Charles David, born 13 June 1937; Delbert LeRoy, born 24 Oct. 1938;
Arthur Jeff: born 9 Aug. 1946 and James Arthur, born 25 June 1949. He died in
Lexington, Missouri on 10 January 1981.

Charles Bdward SCllmVBI
Charles, or Chuck, as he was called in the family, was born 9 March 1898 in Prairie
Center, Kansas. Charles was named for Nannie's brother Charles. He never married. He,
like Henry, lived in and around Pendleton, Oregon and worked various places. I knew
him because he would, occasionally, come from eastern Oregon and visit our family.
After he retired, he moved to Canby, Oregon, where he lived until he died on 21 Aug.
1985. Chuck is buried in Yoder, Oregon at the Smyrna Cemetery.

Maggie Geddus SCllmVBI
Maggie was born on 20 July 1900 at Geddus, South Dakota. She was born during the
family move from Kansas to North Dakota. Maggie was named for Nannie's sister,
Margaret. She married Julius AXELSON in 1919 or 1920. They had two sons, Fredrick
William, born 25 May 1929 and Allen Wayne, born 30 Aug. 1932. I do not know when
Julius died. Maggie died 21 Apri11986.

Blmer Grant SCnmVBI
Elmer was born 11 August 1902 in Sanborn, North Dakota. It appears that Elmer was
named for Henry's (William's brother) son Elmer. He was a "special child." He lived at
home and was cared for by Em after their father died. Then he lived on the farm at
Molalla for a period of time. He went into a facility in Portland, Oregon. He died in

�TIE SCIRmVER PAMILT continued
Portland on September 9, 1955. Elmer is also buried in Yoder, Oregon at the Smyrna
Cemetery.

Edna Katherine SCIRmVEI
Edna was born 11 April 1905 in Sanborn, North Dakota. Edna was named for Charles
PROEBSTEVs daughter .. It is possible that her middle name was her mother's middle
name. She went to college for a couple of years and then she taught school. She went to
Mountainair, New Mexico to teach. There she met Owen Orin SABIN and they were
married on 10 May 1930. They have three children, Phyllis Jean, born 28 Feb. 1932;
Owen Wayne, born 2 April 1933; and Janis Elaine, born 9 April 1,943.

Annie Marie' SCIImVER
Annie was born 7 Sept 1906 in Sanborn, North Dakota. Annie was also named for a
daughter of Charles PROEBSTEL.
First she married Billy FANN and by him she had one child, William (called Billy), who
was born 8 May 1925. Billy died in a drowning accident on 6 May 1934.
Second she married Edward Oral SAULTZ on 11 May 1928. They lived in Belton,
Missouri and had nine children. James Edward was born 11 Dec. 1929; Patsy Sue was
born 27 May 1931; Gerald Eugene was born 10 July 1933; Gertrude Annette was born 18
Dec. 1937 and she died of cancer 15 Dec. 1984; Ellen Rose was born 15 July 1939; the
twins Robert Oral and Barbara Marie were born 13 Dec. 1941; Donald David was born 12
May 1946 and Terri June was born 26 Nov. 1949. She died as the result of a car accident,
14 Feb. 1971. Oral SAULTZ died 20 July 1987 and Annie died 12 April 1991. They are
buried in the Belton Cemetery, Belton, Missouri.
All twelve children of William and Nannie SCHRIEVER are accounted for. However,
"the tale is not told." It will go on and on. Byron has done a wonderful job tracking
down the first cousins and getting family data from each one. Adding numbers to the
generations and adding to the story is the responsibility of each of you and your children.

\ COUNTY FAIR - BREAD AND CAKE
In this class the display, as we have before said, was very good, and the competition lively.
There was enough to feed a regiment and have many loaves left. Mrs. HUGHES
exhibited some thirty varieties of baking, including com bread, wheat bread, rye bread,
silver cake, sponge cake, doughnuts and other kinds too numerous to speak of
Miss Sarah BROWN also exhibited a number of samples of bread and cake.
Miss A. G. DaLEE had sponge, pound and other cakes, elegant to behold and no doubt
good to taste.
Mrs. JOHNSON of the Lawrence House exhibited a showcase of bread and cake that was
indeed tempting.
Mrs. SPERRY also had a very fine display of bread and cake, most tastefully arranged for
exhibition.
Mrs. WILLETT enters a lot of bread and cake. Mrs. BRYANT, Mrs. ALVIN, Miss
MARKMAN, Mrs. COVEL, Mrs. WALKER and Miss DOUGLAS each have a fine
display of bread and cake.
Mrs. RIGGS had on exhibition a fine lot of bread and cake and also splendid samples of
canned fruits.
Mrs. GmSON exhibited splendid samples offruit cake, bread and pickles. Mrs. J. T.
GRANT, samples of different kinds of cake. Mrs. TYLER, 25 varieties of bread, cake
and different kinds of baking.

In examining the fine display of bread and cakes we may have failed to get the names of
all exhibitors. The display in this department far exceeded anything we had expected and
in the judgment of many was ahead of any State fair yet held. The ladies did well, and the
interest they have taken in our county fair is highly commendable.

HISTORY

Typescript provided by Joseph Cullen
Edited by Bobby Title
Jemima MORRIS, your great great grandmother on your mother's side, was born
in England. We do not know the date or place of her birth, but she came to
America with a group of women known as Tobacco Women who were sent out to be the
wives of settlers. Their passage was to be paid the English Govt. in tobacco.
But not being chosen in marriage they were to become indentured servants for
seven years. My father used to twit my mother saying, "Your grandmother was
bought with Tobacco."
However, Jemima landed a man and was chosen by Wal ter MATINEY, a
wheelwright, and served no period of indenture. Frequently in her day the white
went into block houses against the Indians. She had seen George WASHINGTON and
said the Indians could not shoot him. Aunt Julia said the Indians said he led
a charmed life. No arrows could touch him.
Well, this Jemima married Walter MATINEY, a Scotchman. Branches of the
family have spelled the name MATHNEY. She had two children recorded, Jemima the
2nd and Nancy. This Nancy was your great-grandmother and my grandmother. She
married Henry COREL whose people came from Ireland. Some spelled it CURL or
CORRELL. Nancy COREL MATINEY was my grandmother.
I just missed being named
Nancy. Henry spoke with a very Irish brogue. Mama and Aunt Julia often mimicked
him. It was from them I learned that "praties" were potatoes.
Nancy COREL, Henry her husband, Will their
teen-age son, and Nancy's sister Jemima all died
within a week of measles.
The epidemic of
measles at Lawrence was in the Kansas History I
studied in school.
Many died as they did not
know what it was. They survived an epidemic of
smallpox and died of measles. All four of them
lay dead in the house - one room - at the same
time. The neighbors came in and built coffins of
native walnut lumber so abundant in Kansas at an
early day. Here I might pause to tell you that
our old home on 8th St. in Independence, across
from the Elks, was of walnut lumber, dimensions,
floor and all.
Speaking of her parents, Mama
said she could still hear the hammers building
the coffins. Mama was fourteen.
All of those who died in the measles epidemic were buried on Mt. Oread.
Later this was vacated as a cemetery but the graves being unmarked it is likely
their ashes are still there. So many years passed before it was vacated.
In her childhood Mama had seen the chemical match and baking soda
introduced. Her father had struck fire with a flint and steel. Cakes, etc. were
raised by beating them a lot. You've heard of beaten biscuit. Also stoves made

their appearance. The first stoves were called step-stoves. The names to this
point run MORRIS, MATlNEY and COREL. Grandmother COREL remembered the fall of
the stars. They thought it an omen. Scientists have since found the cause.
In the 1850's Henry COREL, my mother's father, and brothers and families,
their stock, etc., came to Kansas. They came from Virginia by flatboat down the
Ohio, Mississippi and Missouri Rivers. The boat foundered and they unloaded at
Wyandotte and drove by schooner to Westport, Missouri using ox teams. Mama was
seven years old. Kansas City was not started then.
They began a homestead on Little Blue, now Kansas City's famous Cliff
Drive. But finding themselves in slave territory they moved on to Lawrence, the
main seat of anti-slave activity. Henry COREL died leaving his claim unproved.
His brother Will proved up on this land in his own name, beating the youngsters
out of their inheritance. Mama said she had seen a steamboat on the river at
Lawrence in a time of high water. This is a disputed subject but Mama stood pat.
JOHN SALATHIEL COMES TO LAWRENCE
This is where the SALATHIELS come in. John SALATHIEL was born in Ironton,
Ohio. He ran off at 12 years and was a cook's helper on a river boat. He came
to Kansas on horseback in the l850s with two young fellows. He said the first
impression of Kansas was the profusion of wild flowers.
He went into the
clothing business in Lawrence, also general merchandise. This is where he and
Jemima COREL met. His father was dead and he moved his mother and sister Mary
to Lawrence. His mother was bedridden.
John SALATHIEL is listed in Oswald Garrison VILLARD's John Brown Fifty
Years Later as one of John BROWN's Stubbs Co.
These men formed a sort of
underground to get abused slaves out of Missouri into the underground railway
and to Canada. When the monument to John BROWN was erected in Osawatomie, Kansas
shortly before World War I, there were only 3 living members of the Stubbs Co.
I guess it was in about 1912. They wanted Papa to come and sit on the platform.
He refused, saying they had no idea they were making history. He went to the
celebrating, however. John BROWN was a Cromwellian fanatic, took every horrid
command in the Bible literally.
John SALATHIEL' s parentage. John and Jane SALATHIEL were parents of Morgan
SALATHIEL. This ancestor was very religious and active in what was called the
Independent Church. He and his wife Jane never left Wales. Morgan, their son
and my father's father, was born in Cardiff, Wales on April 1, 1800 and married
Margaret THOMAS at Tradagar, Wales Mumuttshire. She was the daughter of David
and Mary THOMAS of Tradagar. Morgan and Margaret came to America in 1830. This
Margaret was Papa's mother.
So you see John SALATHIEL was a full-blooded
Welshman. Morgan died in 1846 in Kimuand (spelling not clear) Virginia. His
wife Margaret, Papa's mother, died in Lawrence in 1861 and was buried on Mt.
Oread.

THE PIONEER, VOL. XVIII, No.4

-106-

�FAMILY HISTORY continued
John was born at Ironton, Ohio on April 30, 1836. His sister Mary was born
in Wales. Your mother was named for Aunt Mary HOWELL. The name SALATHIEL is
Jewish through Greece. The Hebrew is really Shealtiel as you will find in some
Bibles. Salathiel was the character written of much in fiction as the Wandering
Jew. He was the one in The Apocrypha who spat on Jesus. He said, "Tarry thou
'till I come." Eugene SUE wrote a book of the same. Also the Prince of India
by Lew WALLACE and Salathiel. the Wandering Jew used this legendary character.
But to go back, the SALATHIEL from whom we sprang, came to Wales from
Land's End. Oh yes, while I remember it, the legendary SALATHIEL rejuvenates
everyone hundred years.
This SALATHIEL was a metal worker and the discovery of tin in Wales brought
him there.
He had some sort of a foundry.
He intermarried as did his
descendants and Wales has many SALATHIELS, so many people have told me. This
is Grandpa's background as told us by Aunt Mary. She said it was 500 years
before their time that the Jewish blood could be traced. SO doubtless we are
pretty mixed. Although on the Welsh side this strain, outside the Jewish blood,
dates back from the Druids.
Well, you know pretty much the rest. John and Jemima had nine children - John, Charles, Margaret, Thomas, Julia (who died as a baby), Henry, Walter,
Agnes and Mary Jane.
John never married.
He died in a mine accident in
Colorado.
MIXED DATA OF FAMILY HISTORY
Mama's father, Henry COREL, was better educated than the average of his
time. He was a graduate of an academy and taught. When they came to Missouri
he taught school and was furnished the food, etc. instead of wages. A rich man
who owned many negroes but couldn't read or write furnished a log building. Mama
said there was an old negro who came to carry the children across the creek.
She said she felt so safe snuggled up to his shoulder.
Jemima SALATHIEL had three sisters. Julia (18441930) married Willis MYERS and lived in Chetopa,
Kansas. Lida lived in Texas and died in a storm.
Her married name was McGEE. Her son, Robert Lee
McGEE visited us.
Rebecca, the little sister,
lived with an aunt. When Mama married she took
Rebecca and raised her. Rebecca was married from
Mama's house to Giles PARMAN. He was a banker in
Condon, Oregon.
Rebecca died at the birth of
twins. Lloyd PARMAN was one twin. I met him in
Portland. Then there was Ethelyn FROMAN who was
a graduate of Forest Grove College and taught.
She is nice and seems much like us.
I mean
physically resembles our side. I saw a picture
of Rebecca and her husband, and if I hadn't known
I would have said it was Mama.

When John SPEARS, the noted Kansas Historian, was compiling his book he
came to Independence and was our guest for a week. Also, Rose WALDO, who wrote
Mother India came to Independence to get data for Oswald Garrison VILLARD, the
Editor of Nation.
A McGEE married Grandma's aunt. Grandma was married from the McGEE home
in Westport, Missouri. McGEE Street in Kansas City, Missouri is named for this
. family. Mama said she was married in white Swiss, resembling organdy, and wore
a veil. Papa wore a shawl such as you see in Lincoln pictures. He also had a
lantern of nickel, a tiny one which was quite the dog and carried by swank young
men going to calIon their girls.
Grandpa's mother, born in Wales, claimed second sight. She had "visions."
Grandpa's sister Mary HOWELL's husband was an architect and came to Lawrence
from the south.
It is thought that John SALATHIEL's father Morgan came with two brothers
from Wales to America, and that one brother returned.
Lyndon SALATHIEL of
Pontiac, Michigan, supplied this information. It was his great grand-father who
returned to Wales.

Listen, I've got a bunch of interesting ancestors.
My 4th great aunt Alice was widowed at 18 and
left with a small baby. My 3rd great-grandma
had 3 husbands. Imagine! My 4th cousin once
removed, John, died a bachelor, the only one of the
cousins who didn't marry. I looked for my 2nd
great grandpa Smith for 12 years and finally found

�Baldwin is observing her centennial this year, but only the incorporation date can establish
her chronological age. After delving into our town's beginning we find its birth had actually taken
place at an earlier age.
Palmyra could be considered the mother plant and from its growth and branching Baker
and Baldwin were formed but only to discard the maternal roots on their way. To consider the
founding of Baldwin one must first relate the history of the others.
The first settlement near the townsite of Palmyra was in 1854 by Robert and Richard
PEARSON. Others listed in the first settling were L. F. GREEN and Jacob CANTRELL, who
took up claims. They were followed by L. N. SNYDER, H. BARRICKLOW, Dr. STILL, lA
ABBOTT, D.F. GREEN, D. FRY, W. BARRICKLOW and others in 1855-1856.
In June 1855, a town site of320 acres was surveyed and laid offby the Palmyra town
company. Palmyra laid just north of Highway 56 which was recorded as First street and bordered
on the west at about the Vinland road. Names of the streets, running east and west, were
Barricklow, Sumner, Jasper, Fremont, Main, Washington, Locust, Reeder and Howard.

Members of the first town company were James BLOOD, president, Capt. SAUNDERS,
Amasa SOULE, L.F. GREEN, Dr. AT. STILL, D. FRY, Robert PEARSON and three
BARRICKLOW brothers.
It is interesting to note that on the survey Baker University was shown to the north of the
city of Palmyra and the Baker lands tract south of Palmyra.
Dr. Abraham STILL had moved from the Wakarusa Mission near Eudora to Blue Mound
where he built a house. In the winter of 1857 a Methodist Educational Convention was called to
meet at his home. Dr. STILL offered his place for a college site at this meeting. Members of the
convention decided to let Dr. STILL decide on the location and name for the new school that the
convention wanted to found in this area. He chose Baker after Bishop BAKER, a member of the
first annual conference held in Lawrence in 1856.
Dr. STILL's oldest son, Andrew Taylor STILL, moved to Baldwin in 1856 and was one of
the leading members of the Palmyra Town Co. listed in the above paragraph. It was in 1858 that
the town company purchased a section ofland adjacent to the city of Palmyra on the south and
donated it to the Kansas Educational Association in consideration that they agree to locate an
institution oflearning on it.

�THE FOUNDIN6 OF BALDWIN

ern'

CONTINUED

It was about this time that John Baldwin enters the picture. The furthering of education
was this man's life's passion. Born in Bramford, Conn. in 1799, he went from there to Ohio and
through his work founded the Baldwin Institute at Beer in 1845, named in his honor. The name
of this school was later changed to Baldwin University.
John BALDWIN then came to the Kansas Territory in 1858. He located in Palmyra and
roomed and boarded with John STILL, a son of Dr. STILL. Through letters, one of Dr. STILL's
daughters relates some interesting facts about Mr. BALDWIN. She refers to him as Father
BALDWIN and said that he and Dr. STILL were very good friends. One can see why the two
would naturally be drawn to each other in their passion for education and religion. Mr.
BALDWIN worked with Dr. STILL on plans for the new school and as the plans progressed
buildings were erected on the site south ofPlilmyra named Baldwin. It was decided that Milton
BALDWIN, son of John, was to take charge of the new college when it was ready. However, he
died of typhoid fever in August 1858 just as the new school was at its beginning.
John BALDWIN had other interests for history tells us that he was an astute businessman.
The Kansas Messenger, one of the first newspapers in Baldwin, dated Jan. 1, 1859, and edited by
Prof B. R CUNNINGHAM relates this story, "A saw and grist mill, located at 5th and Indiana
built by Mr. BALDWIN, is now in operation. There are two saws and if the winter should, as
many think, be as warm as the last, they will accomplish a large amount oflabor. The grist mill is
from a forward pattern and will doubtless do first rate work. "
Records show that the first post office at Palmyra was founded June 29, 1857, with
Norman BLOOD as the first postmaster. The name was changed to Baldwin City post office
May 22, 1862, which would indicate that the town of Baldwin was then in existence even though
it was not incorporated until September of 1870.
Whatever the dates, Baldwin grew with the college and the mill and the business district
moved from the Palmyra site to the present Baldwin City.
John BALDWIN did not stay to live in the town named in his honor. He returned to Ohio
soon after his son's death and later bought lands in Louisiana for schools (1867). He died in 1884
in Louisiana and is buried in Berea.
Only the grave of his son, Milton, marked in the old Baldwin cemetery, remains as a
reminder of our namesake.

MAKING THEM HAPPEN

THE DISAPPEARING PACES - The Art of Losing your Pamilv

When was the last time you had a black and white photograph taken? Mine
was in 1953; I was 17 and in a cap and gown for high school graduation. My kids
appear in a b/w portrait probably taken in 1962 -- but from then on, everything
is in color.
Even though great advances in color film have been made since it was
introduced after the "Big War" (WWII to you younger folk), there is still strong
feeling that color photos, both snapshot and portrait, will last only about 50
years. And that is if good quality paper (like Kodak paper) is used. Already
my kids' own high school graduation photos (from 1975 and 1977) have shifted
color and are fading. My oldest daughter's beautiful wedding portrait from 1973
is all in shades of the palest yellow and soon will need to come down off the
wall because the image will be gone.
Some images of my grandkids are already disappearing - especially those
darling shots taken at the malls and department stores. When these are gone,
there will be no photographic records of them left, because no one uses black
and white film any more.
If you're my age, your descendants down the road may know what you looked
like at an early age but they'll never know what your kids and grandkids looked
like unless you take immediately put a roll of black and white film in your
camera and get a series of snapshots of each of your kids and grandkids-as well
as of you and your significant other.
Another alternative is for you to take black and white shots of all your
important photos! This is not hard to do. It helps, of course, if you have a
camera with interchangeable lens, because you can use a close up lens and get
some really good black and white reproductions. But if you don't have such a
camera, you don't have to be left out. Individually you can ask a friend with
a more sophisticated camera to take them for you, with you paying for the film
and developing. Secondly, you can take your color photos to a photo lab and have
them done for you (a more costly way but at least you will have a black and white
photo whose image will last practically forever.) Or thirdly, you can arrange
with a photographer to come to your genealogical society meeting at which time
he or she will make black and white copies of color color portraits or snapshots
you bring. The photographer, if he or she is a genealogist, may offer to do this
for no charge other than her cost. Details can be negotiated.
Because I want my descendants to have the chance at knowing what my family
looked like, I made a resolution that by year's end 1995, I would have a complete
black and white photographic record of my family. I still have a few left to
take -- with two great-grandbabies due this fall. Digging for roots is fun, but
documenting our families for posterity is invaluable.
Don't let inertia or inexperience keep you from doing this very important
task.

ANSWER:
Jeannette replies: Allegation offraud not true. Married in presence of other people, no
relatives involved, no threat. He knew she couldn't be "enciente", he married her after
months ofparticular attention toward her and his declared attachment toward her. Never
was a servant in the family "not for even a minute, much less years. "
- - says at marriage petitioner was apparently upward of 21 years of age, had grown and
raised bushy whiskers and beard, a rather rare appendage for a lad of 17. He represented
himself to clergyman as having attained more than 20 years. Also, "says that the .
petitioner, having falsely understated his own age by several years, has overstated hers by
7 years."
- - says lived and cohabited from marriage to fall of 1861 continuous, thence more or less
continuous to Dec 1863. She bore him 3 children, not 2, one of whom was born in
February 1860 and died September 1863.
- - says at the time of marriage she was dressmaker, kept her own apartment, earned a
respectable livelihood and at present and for years past she is housekeeper and doing a
much more profitable and extensive business than before.
- - says plaintiff in 1858, being unable to obtain other employ, became an operative in her
brother James' factory, subsequently employed on 2 railroads. In 1861 he entered in the
Pennsylvania volunteers. She never knew of any injuries he ever received on the railroad.
"On the contrary, while engaged on RR he spent much of his earnings in profligacy and
often left her and the children to maintain themselves as best they could.
- - has never performed his husbandly or fatherly duties. Since 1863 has wholly deserted
the family and contributed no support. He should not have custody.
