  • Family Tree Maker
    Sidney Dwight Root, 1824-1894: A Yankee by Birth, A Rebel at Heart by Sharon Gayle Conner Whitney Copyright 2007 Sharon Gayle Conner Whitney All rights reserved. This book is dedicated to the Root family. Sidney Dwight Root, 1824-1894: A Yankee by Birth, A Rebel at Heart Acknowledgements I want to thank my first cousin, once removed, Carol Root Smeltzer, and my second cousin, once removed, Mary Lett Root Robertson, for their prior works compiling and editing materials relevant to the Root Family stories. Carol lives in El Paso de Robles, San Luis Obispo County, CA. Mary Lett now lives in Knoxville, TN. Carol I see in CA on occasion. Mary Lett I've just recently connected via telephone. Carol published recently Hannah: A Woman of Spirit and Heart (2006), which is inspired by the 1880s California homesteader life of Hannah Josephine Fosgate, on Estrella Plains, CA, east of Paso Robles. Hannah married John Edgar, an Irish adventurer. They were the parents of Florence Edna Edgar, who married George Francis Root. Mary Lett is listed in Who's Who of Librarians and Information Services (1987). When I spoke to her on the telephone, Mary Lett seemed to think the life of SDR after the Civil War became a matter of concern to his brother, Moses Root. She said this branch of the family has become "lost" to the rest of us. She seemed happy to learn that the Atlanta Historical Society has some archived materials, and surprised that they included letters written to SDR by Mrs. Jefferson Davis, which thanked him for his help in getting the legislature to provide her with a pension.

  • A Standard History of Sauk County Wisconsin an Authentic Narrative Of
    DAVID MYERS History of Sauk County DAVID MYERS. The distinction of being the oldest man, not only in point of residence, but also in point of age, in Sauk County, is enjoyed by the venerable David Myers of Prairie du Sac. It is now more than ninety-five years since David Myers first saw the light of day. James Monroe was president of the United States when he was born. There was not a mile of railway in the United States, the Erie Canal had not been opened to traffic, and he was a grown man before the marvelous invention of telegraphy was put to practical use. Probably no one in the State of Wisconsin can better appreciate the marvels of the present age than Mr. Myers, who has his personal recollections of the crude times and facilities in the early part of the last century to sharpen the contrast. It was more than seventy years ago that David Myers first made the acquaintance of Sauk County, and here, too, he has witnessed a trans- formation almost beyond belief. He was born in Otsego County, New York, January 10, 1822, a son of Cornelius and Penny (Clark) Myers, his father a native of New Jersey and his mother of New York. David Myers ,was reared and educated in the East and came West to Madison, Wisconsin, with his father in 1844. For two years he worked as a blacksmith at Madison, and in 1845 came to Prairie du Sac in Sauk County. Here he resumed blacksmithing, and in those early days one of the things most demanded of him was the mak- ing or repairing of plows.

G EORGE THOMAS STEVENS) FRANK A LLABEN GENEALOGICAL COMPANY Forty-Second Street Building New Y ork Copyright, 1 91 3, by Frank Allaben Genealogical Company DEC 2 r : g]3 d s V I 1*113 PREFACE In t he well known Hyde Genealogy, compiled by Chan cellor Walworth, is a short sketch of the Wadhams Fam ily tracing it back to the settler, John Wadham, of Wethersfield, Connecticut. The data for this sketch was furnished by my uncle, the Right Reverend Edgar P. Wadhams. Later he obtained some further data and, on his becoming Bishop of Ogdensburg, he gave this ma terial to me with the request that I continue the work. During the past twenty-five years, but more especially during the past five years, I have pursued the task of obtaining all available information relating to those of the name of Wadhams in America and elsewhere. Not withstanding my best endeavors it is probable that a con siderable number of those who should have been included in the work have not been found. The lineage of a few families by the name of Wadhams has been traced to a certain extent, but their connection with the main branch of the family has not yet been established. The records of these will be found in the Unconnected Lines. In t he preparation of the work I have freely consulted and availed myself of information from a considerable number of genealogical works to which I am much in debted.

  • Manuscript Record
    NEBRASKA STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY COLLECTION RECORD RG1227.AM: Ricker, Eli Seavey, 1843-1926 Correspondence & research materials: 1800-1936 Dawes County, Nebraska: Lawyer, Judge, Editor, Historian Cubic ft.: 17.5 No. of Items: 35 boxes & 7 reels of microfilm BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Eli Seavey Ricker was born in rural Maine in September 1843. His family moved to Oneida, Illinois, where he was apparently raised. During the Civil War he served with “I” Co., 102nd Regiment, Illinois Volunteer Infantry, and rose to the rank of Corporal before his discharge in June 1865. He returned to his Illinois home and began farming. Ricker worked hard but money was in short supply, and in 1866 he journeyed with friends into Kansas, where he apparently took a land claim before returning to Oneida. In 1867 he married the girl, Mary A. Smith, with whom he had corresponded since 1863 but never met until 1866. Ricker had always had a deep desire to obtain more education, and his family lived frugally as he worked his way through two years of college. In 1882 he took his wife and children to Brooklyn, Iowa, where he read law in the office of John T. Scott, and was admitted to the bar in 1884. In 1885 the family moved to Dawes County, Nebraska, where Ricker set up practice. In 1890 he affiliated himself with the Populist movement, and was elected to the first of three terms as county judge. He then retired briefly before becoming editor of the Chadron Times, from January 1903- February 1905. After 1905 he devoted his remaining years to research on a book which he hoped to write, to be entitled “The Final Conflict Between the Red Man and the Pale Faces.” The book never was written because Ricker became engrossed in his research, and in the process amassed a remarkable collection of source material, including interviews with soldiers, Indians, cowboys, trappers, and generally anyone with knowledge of the frontier and frontier incidents.
