Paul Jordan in his capacity as genealogist for the society receives many interesting requests for information. This client is seeking any further information that is available. It holds a lot of interesting information in the family group sheets, etc. Portions of a letter from Ms. Larson are included. Her address is Janet Larson, 10650 SW Lucas Drive, Tualatin OR 97062-8413. From Ms. Larson's letter: "An interesting item I found in the 1860-1861 city directory was the listing of Silas B. Norton as proprietor of the Eldridge House. I am aware of the role Shalor W. Eldridge played in the early history of the Lawrence area. Also, that he was born in West Springfield, MA, just a few years before Silas was born in Southampton, MA, not too far away. I understand from a publication of the Kansas State Historical Society, he married a Mary B. Norton. The surname, Eldridge, was given to the eldest son of Silas when he was born in 1859 and also to the second son of my maternal grandfather, Harry V.

SOUNDEX SEARCH TIP More often than not the four-character code in the upper left-hand comer of the 1900 Soundex cards is completely obscured. In such a situation, a logical first approach for locating the section of the microfilm containing the hidden Soundex Code is to look for the "header" cards which contain the one letter and three digits of cards in that section. Obviously that card appears following the final first names (the given names beginning with the letters W to Z) of the section preceding the one for which you are searching. In some instances even the header card is not legible. In that case, you may want to employ what historians call the "pothole method" of locating the desired Soundex Code rather than using the more time consuming method of laboriously searching through the reel page by page. For example, if you are searching for the surname Newcom for which the Soundex characters are N250 and you have fast-forwarded the film toa group which contains the name, Nesler, checking the code for Nesler reveals that you are looking at the N246 section of the film. Then if continuing to advance the film fairly rapidly brings it to the name, Newcomb, for which the code is N251 you have overshot your target, but only by one Soundex Code section and a slow reversal will take you into the desired Soundex section. From: Edward Holder, New Hampshire State Library. COLOR-CODED MAPS A thing that has been a great help to me in sorting out the families of my Webster family (maternal-Grandmother) are old maps that I have found in different books in our local family history center. I make a copy, then use different colored pens when I locate which county a part of the family settled in. When I find a new person, ifit tells the place of birth, marriage, death, etc., I have been able to sort out a lot of the families and who settled and remained where. Also listings of how the counties changed over time are a big help. Mary Belle Hockett. NUMBERS The next time you are feeling rather unimportant, try a little mathematical trick based on the fact that it took two people, your parents, to get you here. Each of your parents had two parents so in the generation just prior to that of your mother and father, there were four people whose pairing off and sharing a love contributed to your existence. You are the product of eight greatgrandparents, 16 great-great-grandparents, 32 great-great-great grandparents, etc. Keep on multiplying the number by two, you will discover that a scant 500 years ago, there were 1,040,576 people on this planet beginning the production of you. Tom Lynn. HIGHLIGHTERS AND PHOTOCOPIES Do not use a colored "highlighter" to mark out names in documents. Unless you use a color 42 �copier, you marks will come out solid black and you can't read what you have highlighted when you make a copy later. Arnold. MAKE A WISH LIST As I am going through my files, this is a perfect time to compile a list of the blanks that need to be filled in. I use a blank research log and title it "[Family name] to do list" and file it in the notebook that I take with me on research outings. This log won't be as detailed as the logs that I use to document the steps that I have taken (i. e. records requests sent, searches performed, publications consulted etc.), but instead may read like "need birth date for Thomas TOBIN." Once my organizational tasks are complete, I will go into more detail seeking sources that I can use to find this information. With my documentation inventory complete, I will consult the records I have for him, looking for clues in the data that I already have, and making a list of possible places I can search to find this information. 1890 CENSUS SUBSTITUTE When a basement fire in the Commerce Building in Washington D.C. destroyed most of the 1890 federal census, a valuable source of information was lost to researchers of America's past. Ancestry.com, with the aid of the National Archives and Records Administration and the Allen County Public Library, now provides the first definitive online substitute for the missing census. More that 20 million records have been identified for inclusion in the collection and additions will be made regularly as they become available for posting. It will include fragments of the original 1890 census that survived the fire, special veterans schedules, several Native American tribe censuses for years surrounding 1890, state censuses (1885 or 1895), city and county directories, alumni directories, and voter registration documents. When completed this collection will be an unparalleled tool for researchers of American ancestors. ANCESTRYCOM ANNOUNCES IMAGES ONLINE Ancestry.com is taking online genealogy to a new level by launching Images Online. Of great value to family historians and genealogists, the online images provide extensive detail that is only available by viewing the source document. Original American Civil War pension index cards are the first available images, and following soon will be top-quality images of U.S. censuses, 17901920. Images Online will provide Ancestry.com members with access to more online genealogical information than ever before. Ancetry.com is dedicated to saving its members time and money by allowing them to view and print documents that have traditionally been stored on microfilm or are only available in limited numbers of archives and libraries throughout the nation. Going beyond the detail of indexes an information summaries, the online images will provide extensive detail only available through original records. Stay tuned for more information! 43 �FROM DON VAUGHN I received this infonnation from another mailing list and thought I would pass it on. In the event you don't have a computer close at hand to do the calculating: REMEMBER 8870 That's not an error: It's the number to remember when you want to find the birthdate of someone when you only have the date of death and age. How do you figure the birthdate? Suppose the person died May 6, 1889 at the age of71 years, 7 months, 9 days. Write the year, month, dayas------18890506 Subtract the age at death--------------710709 This gives the figure-----------------181 79797 Now subtract 8870------------------------8870 The result is---------------------------18170927 Year 1817, 9th month(Sept), 27th day or 27 Sept, 1817. Cemetery photography If you have a lot of headstones to photograph, you might consider video taping them. My uncle went on a trip to England and discovered a church cemetery with about 1/4 of the people related to us. He took pictures of headstones and also video taped them, reading them out loud as he taped them. Some of the photographs were hard to read in the dim light but the video tape turned out great. Tony and Donna Ramey via Don Vaughn. ROOSEVELT FOUNTAIN IN SOUTH PARK The Countryside Garden club is inviting all citizens of Lawrence to participate in a project to restore the historic Roosevelt Fountain in South park. The total cost of the undertaking will probably be about $50,000, part of which will come from the city. If you are interested in helping with the project contact Mary Y. Allen and look at the brochures in the Osma Room in the Lawrence Public Library. RECOGNITION FOR KATHRYN BUNTON AND THE SOCIETY The Douglas County Genealogical Society has been the fortunate recipient of the genealogical collection of Kathryn 1. BUNTON, of Lawrence, KS. This includes ten bound scrapbooks concerning genealogy compiled by Beaulah Alice KEILMAN RICKETTS, mother of Kathryn BUNTON and compiled prior to Mrs. RICKETT'S death in 1973. These have been indexed by Miss BUNTON. This generous gift also included about 70 books on genealogy. 44 �This is another great example of what we all should consider! Unless you know that someone in your family will be interested in your collection (beyond your own"family tree" efforts) be sure to make provisions so that your books will go where they may be used and appreciated. This appeared in the Kansas Review volume 25, no 4, published by the Kansas Council of Genealogical Societies, Inc. ADDITIONS TO NEWSPAPER FILES AT THE OSMA ROOM The Friends of the Lawrence Public Library paid for the purchase of microfilm of the following newspapers: Daily Kansas Tribune.

They are filed in the microfilm cabinets in the Osma room and are to be read in the Osma Room. They may not be checked out. There are still some gaps in the holdings of the Lawrence papers. They are: 7 Dec 1874 - 3 Mar 1875 30 Dec 1877 - 31 Jan 1878 The microfilms of these issues are not available at this time. The monies to purchase these films are a direct result of the Friends Book Sale in the Fall and Spring. Patronize these sales!!!

The results of the territorial census of 1855 are not included in review tables contained in later census reports because the data, arranged by districts, were not comparable to the county tauulations of the territorial census of 1859 and subsequent State censuses.31 After the organization of the State the first. census was taken in 1865. The results, howeyer, were incomplete and were never published. 3s The State Board of Agriculture conducted the censuses of 1875, 1885, 1895, 1905, 1915, and 1925-the last State census taken in Kansas prior to the repeal of the act governing these enumerations. In addition to the decennial censuses, 1875-1925, the State Board of Agriculture published in its annual and biennial reports annual statements of the population of the State by counties based upon enumerations carried out by assessors in compiling their tax lists.

The law which provided for the decennial census in years ending in 5 was repealed in 1933.44 Thus, no State census was taken in Kansas after 1925. The annual returns of the enumerations conducted by the assessors have continued to be published by the State Board of Agriculture in its Biennial Report.

Dean, Miss May Dean, Master Frank Dean, L S. Steele and wife, Masters Charlie, Johnnie and Jimmie Steele, Mrs. E. M. Woodward, Misses Annie, Sadie, Katie and Mabel Woodward, Master Charlie Woodward, Ira L. Steele, Milton Shepherd· and family, Albert Shepherd, Carrie Shepherd, John Shepherd, and Miss Jennie Shepherd. A HAPPY ANNIVERSARY One of those happy occasions which makes us feel that life is worth living for, and that old age has its delights, occurred yesterday at the residence of Col. J. C. Steele, at Clinton. It was the anniversary of the fiftieth birthday of his daughter, Mrs. Dean. This is even better than a golden wedding celebration. The wedding anniversary to all happy married people is a time for happy memories, but the anniversary of the birth of a child, recalling, as it must, all the wonderful richness and fervor of the happiness of new parenthood, is something richer and better. Since writing the above we have learned that Mr. Jas. Steele, who resides at Emporia, this State, was unable to be present yesterday, much to the regret of those present. Col. Steele is one of the earliest settlers and one of our most influential and respected citizens. In honored and happy old age he now sits under his own vine and fig tree, and yesterday gathered under their shade all of his living children and grandchildren. All the relations from far and near were present, as well as a goodly number of neighbors; in all the company, numbering near one hundred. Dinner was served in an arbor erected for with the purpose, and beautifully decorated evergreens and flowers. The table fairly groaned under the weight of good cheer, and full justice was done to it by the friends whose ride there had given them appetites. After dinner the company assembled to hear an address from the host. Col. Steele is in his 76th year, but is in full mental and bodily vigor. He expressed the happiness he felt at seeing gathered around him all of his children and grand children. He spoke of the vicissitudes through which they had passed, the sad and happy hours they had known together. He alluded to the old age which was now stealing upon him and to the future to which they were all tending. His address was very appropriated and in many places very affecting. After his address various others were made by friends and neighbors, \ expres~ a kind feeling and the respect which mey au-telt for him and his estimable family, and many wishes were expressed that he might long live to enjoy in his pleasant home the repose and freedom from care which a long life of honest labor had earned for him. 57 .~ �BLOOMINGTON INDIANA DAILY STUDENT Oct. 14, 1929 DOWN COLLEGE AVENUE Down that College Avenue This department has moved down another College avenue, but it will continue to open its columns to those alumni who care to recall days at Bloomington. We have heard of the impress of L. U. Alumni in Missouri, but did you ever read a list of those who hold prominent positions in Kansas? There seem to have been many southern born students in the University before the war between the states but none from Kansas. Many of the early graduates, however, went to that state or settled there after roaming around in the West for a few years. According to the data in Wylie's History, the following list shows the name of those alumni who were citizens and had a part in the formation and life of the sunflower state. We can begin with the first class, 1831, because Michael Hummer, A. B., '30, was superintendent of public instruction in Kansas and a missionary there before his death in 1879. In the arts class of 1836, Matthew Monroe Campbell, who was in charge of the preparatory department under President Andrew Wylie, was agent for the American Bible Society in Kansas in 1859, and died in Topeka in 1897. Adam Marshall,A. B., '39, taught in Kansas for many years and died at Idana in 1866. David Wasson Stormont, A. B., '42, lived in the same city for many years after receiving his M. D. degree from the University of Pensylvania in 1860. He died in Topeka in 1887. Elam Hamilton Waugh, also of '39, received his M. D. in 1853 from the Eclectic Medical Institute (Cincinnati) and moved to Kansas. In 1862 he was made physician to the Leavenworth schools and also served as superintendent several years. In the trouble which took place in an effort to make Kansas a slave state, he lost his second son in the Quantrill raid on Lawrence. Dr. Waugh later moved to Colorado and died at Longmont in 1891. Samuel Newell DePew Martin, A. B. '46, was a missionary in Kansas four years and afterwards superintendent of a Indian industrial school in Nebraska. He died in Goldendale, Wash., in 1903. David Shuck, a member of Martin's class, lived in Lecompton for many years and taught and preached throughout Kansas. He died in 1901 and is buried at Hartsville, Ind. Robert Mitchel Overstreet, '48, a Presbyterian minister, was a member of the Kansas legislature and died in Emporia in 1915. A. H. Evans, LL.B., '48, practiced law for many years in Leavenworth and died there in 1893. John P. Greer, '49, also was a lawyer and died in Topeka in 1889. Robert Gaston Elliott, '50, together with Josiah Miller, '52, owned and edited the Kansas Free Press at Lawrence. The newspaper office was destroyed by border ruffians. Elliott was a trustee of the University of Kansas. Josiah Miller, '52, in addition to owning the Kansas Free Press, was elected probate judge of Douglas county in 1857. In 58 �1861 he was elected state senator but resigned to become postmaster of Lawrence. In 1863 he became a paymaster with the rank of major. In 1866 he was a member of the state 1egis1aure. The Kansas Free Press was an anti-slavery journal, and was destroyed by order of the territorial government in 1856, having been indicted by a pro-slavery jury as a nuisance. Shortly afterwards Miller was captured by pro-slavery forces and tried for treason against South Carolina, his native state. On his release he canvassed the West for John C. Fremont. To Miller Kansas is indebted for its seal with the motto "Ad astra per aspera." He died in 1870. William Wilson McMillan, '53, lived in Olathe for many years, where he was a Reformed Presbyterian preacher. He died in 1895. William Harrison Lemon, '54, was a physician at Lawrence for many years Werter Renick Davis, A. M., (honorary), '54, M. D. College of Physicians and Surgeons, Cincinnati, '58, was a physcian and had a D.D. degree from DePauw. He died in Baldwin in 1898. John Dodds Perring, '57, was a Presbyterian minister at Oak Hill for many years. He died in Brookville, O. John S. Carter, '58, lived at Auburn for many years before his death in 1912. He was buried in Wakarusa, Kansas. Samuel James Kahler, also of '58, was a county commissioner of Dickinson county, Kansas, and served a term in the state legislature. He later moved west and died in Los Angeles in 1912. Robert Campell McKinney, of the same class, was a Presbyterian minister at Newton before going to California. He died in 1903 at Ft. Bragg. Calif. John Watts, '61, the last class we will include, was a national bank examiner and receiver for insolvent banks in Kansas. He died at Newton in 1925. The earlier I. U. alumni in the state seemed to have a creditable position in its development. --K.W.F. TENTATIVE SCHEDULE of programs for Fall, 2000.

Paul Jordan in his capacity as genealogist for the society receives many interesting requests for. information. This client is seeking any further information that is available. It holds a lot of interesting information in the family group sheets, etc. Portions ofa letter from Ms. Larson are included. Her address is Janet Larson, 10650 SW Lucas Drive, Tualatin OR 97062-8413. From Ms. Larson's letter: "An interesting item I found in the 1860-1861 city directory was the listing of Silas B. Norton as proprietor of the Eldridge House. I am aware of the role Shalor W. Eldridge played in the early history of the Lawrence area. Also, that he was born in West Springfield, MA,just a few years before Silas was born in Southampton, MA, not too far away. I understand from a publication of the Kansas State Historical Society, he married a Mary B. Norton. The surname, Eldridge, was given to the eldest son of Silas when he was born in 1859, and also to the second son of my maternal grandfather, Harry V. Norton, both as middle names." 31 �Family Group Sheet 16 Mar 2000 Husband Silas Bartholomew NORTON 1,2,3 t;;t'.i 1 Aug 1823 Southampton, Hampshire, MA• I:;~F Mar 1899 8 Mar 1899 Fort Collins, Larimer, CQ4 Gr~dview Cemetery, Fort Collins, Larimer, CQ4 New Orleans, Orleans, LA Birth f~0:;;: Death ~';~ Burial ;t.;~ Divorce 7 Jun 1853 1 Oct 1875 ~I~ ~ ~a;8!~33 Marriage Douglas County, KS ~;~~ Other spouse Caroline M.

SOUNDEX SEARCH TIP · More often than not the four-character code in the upper left-hand comer of the 1900 Soundex .cards is completely obscured. In such a situation, a logical first approach for locating the section of Pte microfilm containing the hidden Soundex Code is to look for the ''header'' cards which .. ': f c.ontain the one letter and three. digits of cards in that section. Obviously ~t card appears' following the final first names (the given names beginning with the letters W to Z) of the section 'flit prece~ing the one for ~hich you are sear~hing. In som~ ~~s even.the head~~.card·~s ~C?t" _.,'" legible. In that case, you may want to employ what historians call the "pothole method~' of . . ...• ioeatiIig the desired Soundex Code rather than using the more time consuming method of . . laboriously searching througli fue reel page by page. For example, if you are searching for.~e surname Newcom for which the Soundex characters are N250 and you have fast-forWarded the film toa group which contains the name, Nesler, checking the code for Nesler reveals that you are looking at the N246 section of the film. Then if continuing to advanCe the film fairly rapidly brings : ~t .to the name, Newcomb, for which the code is N251 you have overshot your target, but only by 'one Soundex Code section and a slow reversal will take you into the desired Soundex section. .. _....~·'_4.

MAKE A WISH LIST As I am going through my files, this is a perfect time to compile a list of the blanks that need to be filled in. I use a blank research log and title it "[Family name] to do list" and file it in the notebook that I take with me on research outings. This log won't be as detailed as the logs that I use to document the steps that I have taken (i.e. records requests sent, searches performed, publications consulted etc.), but instead may read like "need birth date for Thomas TOBlN."'Once my . orgai1izational tasks are complete,. I will go into more detail seeking S<?urces that I can use'to find this informai!on. With my documentation inventory complete, I will consult the records I have for him, looking for :clues in the data that I already have, and making a list of possible places I can Search to find this information.

The results, howenr, were incomplete and were never published.as The State Board of Agriculture conducted the censuses of 1875, 1885, 1895, 1905, 1915, and 1925-the last State census taken in Kansas prior to the repeal of the act governing these enumerations. In addition to the decennial censuses, 1875-1925 the State Board of Agriculture published in its annual and biennial r~ports annual state~ents of ~he population of the State by counties based upon enumerahons carrIed out by assessors in compiling their tax lists.

J. C. Steele, at Clinton. It was the anniversary of the fiftieth birthday of his daughter, Mrs. Dean. This is even better than a golden wedding celebration. The wedding anniversary to all happy married people is a time for happy memories, but the anniversary of the birth of a child, recalling, as it must, all the wonderful richness and fervor of the happiness of new parenthood, is something richer and better. Col. Steele is one of the earliest settlers and one of our most influential and respected citizens. In honored and happy old age he now sits under his own vine and fig tree, and yesterday gathered under their shade all of his living children and grandchildren. All the relations from far and n~r were present, as well as a goodly number of neighbors; in all the company, numbering near one hundred. Dinner was served in an arbor erected for with the purpose, and beautifully decorated evergreens and flowers. The table fairly groaned under the weight of good cheer, and full justice was done to it by the friends whose ride there had given them appetites. After dinner the company assembled to hear an address from the host. Col. Steele is in his 76th year, but is in full mental and bodily vigor. He expressed the happiness he felt at seeing gathered around him all of his children and grand children. He spoke of the vicissitudes through which they had passed, the sad and happy hours they had known together. He alluded to the old age which was now stealing upon him and to the future to which they were all tending. His address was very appropriated and in many places very affecting. After his address various others were made by friends and neighbors, expressing a kind feeling and the respect which they all felt for him and his estimable family, and many wishes were expressed that he might long live to enjoy in his pleasant home the repose and freedom from care which a long life of honest labor had earned for him. 57 .:...

We have heard of the impress of L. U. Alumni in Missouri, but did you ever read a list of those who hold prominent positions in Kansas? There seem to have been many southern born students in the University before the war between the states but none from Kansas. Many of the early graduates, however, went to that state or settied there after roaming around in the West for a few. years. According to the data in Wylie's History, the following list shows the name of those alumni who were citizens and had a part in the formation and life of the sunflower state. We can begin with the first class, 1831, because Michael Hummer, A. B., '30, was superintendent of public instruction in Kansas and a missionary there before his death in 1879. In the arts class of 1836, Matthew Monroe Campbell, who was in charge of the preparatory department under President Andrew Wylie, was agent for the American 'Bible Society in Kansas in 1859, and died in Topeka in 1897. Adam Marshall,A. B., '39, taught in Kansas for many years and died at Idana in 1866. David Wasson Stormont, A. B., '42, lived in the same city for many years after receiving his M. D. degree from the University of Pensylvariia in 1860. He died in Topeka in 1887. E1am Hamilton Waugh, also of '39, received his M. D. in 1853 from the Eclectic Medical Institute (Cincinnati) and moved to Kansas. In 1862 he was made physician to the Leavenworth schools and also served as superintendent several years. In the trouble which took place in an effort to make Kansas a slave state, he lost his second son in the Quantrill raid on Lawrence. Dr. Waugh later moved to Colorado and died at Longmont in 1891. Samuel Newell DePew Martin, A. B. '46, was a missionary in Kansas four years and afterwards superintendent of a Indian industrial school in Nebraska. He died in Goldendale, Wash., in 1903. David Shuck, a member of Martin's class, lived in Lecompton for many years and taught and preached throughout Kansas. He died in 1901 and is buried at Hartsville, Ind. Robert Mitchel Overstreet, '48, a Presbyterian minister, was a member of the Kansas legislature and died in Emporia in 1915. A. H. Evans, LL.B., '48, practiced law for many years in Leavenworth and died there in 1893. John P. Greer, '49, also was a lawyer and died in Topeka in 1889. Robert Gaston Elliott, 150, together with Josiah Miller, 152, owned and edited the Kansas Free Press at Lawrence. The newspaper office was destroyed by border ruffians. Elliott was a trustee of the University of Kansas. Josiah Miller, 152, in addition to owning the Kansas Free Press, was elected probate judge of Douglas county in 1857. In 58 �1861 he was elected state senator but resigned to become postmaster of Lawrence. In 1863 he became a paymaster with the rank of major. In 1866 he was a member of the state legislaure. The Kansas Free Press was an anti-slavery journal, and was destroyed by order of the territorial government in 1856, having been indicted by a pro-slavery jury as a nuisance. Shortly afterwards Miller was captured by pro-slavery forces and tried for treason against South Carolina, his native state. On his release he canvassed the West for John C. Fremont. To Miller Kansas is indebted for its seal with the motto "Ad astra per . aspera." He died in 1870. . William Wilson McMillan, '53, lived in Olathe for many years; it', where he was a Reformed Presbyterian preacher. He died in 1895. William Harrison Lemon, '54, was a physician at Lawrence.for . many years Werter Renick Davis, A. M., (honorary), '54, M. D. College of Physicians and Surgeons, Cincinnati, '58, was a physcian and had a . D.D. degree from DePauw. He died in Baldwin in 1898. John Dodds Perring, '57, was a Presbyterian minister at Oak Hill for many years. He died in Brookville, O. John S. Carter, '58, lived .at Auburn for many years before his death in 1912. He was buried in Wakarusa, Kansas. Samuel James Kahler, also of '58, was a county commissioner of Dickinson county, Kansas, and served a term in the state legislature. He later moved west and died in Los Angeles in 1912. . Robert Campell McKinney, of the same class, was a Presbyterian minister at Newton before going to California. He died in 1903 at Ft. Bragg. Calif. . . John Watts, '61, the last class we will include, was a national bank examiner and receiver for insolvent banks in Kansas. He . died at Newton in 1925. The earlier I. U. alumni in the state seemed to have a creditable position in its development. --K.W.F. TENTATIVE SCHEDULE of programs for Fall, 2000.
