It was recommended by Dr Hans Klaui, Genealogical Investigation Office, Oberwinterthur, Switzerland through correspondence with Spencer Overholser and Dr Winfred Overholser, then Supt. of St Elizabeth's Hospital in Washington DC. Pertinent portions of the letter of 2/29/1956 are quoted as follows: "In the historical-biographical dictionary of Switzerland, the coat-of-arms Oberholzer is described as follows: 'Obliquely divided, above of red with a half moon and two stars, below of silver with two green oaks.' This emblazoning is not to be described as very happy, since it leaves in respect of the anangement of the half moon and the stars, as well as of both oaks, considerable freedom to the designer.

  • Varieties of Apples in Ohio, II
    BULLETIN 411 OCTOBER, 1927 . Varieties Of Apples In Ohio, II C. W. Ellenwood OHIO AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION Wooster, Ohio ... Looking north from the "Hort" barn Fruit storage building, left; garden and variety cherry orchard, center; variety apple orchards, right Varieties Of Apples In Ohio, II C. W. Ellenwood This bulletin is supplementary to Bulletin 290, published in 1915. It is the purpose of this series to set forth the behavior of the several varieties under trial in the Experiment Station orchards at Wooster. The earlier plantings in these orchards, beginning in 1893, were largely for variety trials. Thus far approximately 500 named varieties of apples have been planted. Those included in this bulletin have not been previously described by this Station. The descriptions in every case have been made from specimens grown at Wooster. Many of these varieties have little or no value in Ohio. None of them is a leading com­ mercial sort. Some are rarely cataloged, others are not cataloged at all. Many of the varieties have already been removed and others are being eliminated each year. This report is intended to serve as a permanent record of the behavior of these varieties at Wooster. It is also hoped that the data may contribute to the knowledge of these varieties and be of some value to growers in the selection and elimination of varieties. Records are kept of the dates of the first and full bloom of each tree, the date of ripening, and the quantity of fruit produced annually. A detailed description of tree and fruit and ink drawing of every variety fruited are kept in the files of the Horticultural Department.

    MHNUHL OF THE NORTH INDIANA CONFERENCE OF THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH. lSZ^zi 1589 COMPILED BY Rev. L. W. MONSON, Copyright 1890 by L. W Monson. WABASH: Printed by The Plain Dealer Company 1890. PREFACE THE compiler sends forth this Manual with the hope that it will be of assistance to his brethren in the ministry and laity. The information contained in it is what many of the older members of the Conference have been called upon to give; it is now brought together in one volume, open to all. None but those who have engaged in similar work, can understand the labor involved. Hours have been spent in following up the record of a single name, and then failing to gain any satisfactory knowledge of it. In some instances names were dropped from the Conference roll and no record made of it, especially in the first few years of its organization. In the preparation of this Manual, the written and printed official records have been searched, newspapers examined, correspondence carried on with persons in various parts of the country, and interviews had with those who were in a position to know the facts desired. Yet, after all had been done, in some instances the information gained was quite meager and unsatisfactory. And yet, we be- lieve that the Manual is, in the main, accurate, and contains all the informa- tion available. We are indebted to Rev. G. T.

  • Thomas Brush Brown 1804-1894 The
    PREFACE When this autobiography was written it was the intention of the author to have given a complete history of his Life and Times, with a special reference to the early settle- ment of Nissouri. However, after it was written so far the infirmities of old age came on, which prevented the accomplishment of his object. This accounts for its incomplete and fragmentary character. For this reason many interesting events and the names of indi- viduals who were prominent in the early settlement of the township are unnoticed; but as it is it will be a valuable contribution toward preserving in a permanent form its early his- tory. It will be a pleasing reminder to many who were personally acquainted with the au- thor during his lifetime. In order to make the work as complete and interesting as possible a few additional facts are given. HIS WORK AS A LOCAL PREACHER Being blessed with strong physical constitution and great force of character, what he determined to do he did with all his might. His leading motive was not to amass prop- erty, except to provide for the reasonable wants of himself and family, nor to attain to the petty offices of the township, but to serve the church of his choice as a local preacher. When he commenced as a worker in the church the few scattered settlers of Nissouri and surrounding townships were but scantily supplied with opportunities they had were mostly on week-days, leaving the Sabbath unprovided for. Under these circumstances he commenced his work as a local preacher, preaching regularly once or more nearly every Sabbath.
