The Descendants of William Beardsley (1605-1661) DATE MiCROFICHED Compiled by Z.H&OSC frtO PROJECT and G.S. Wm John Slayton Jr FICHE# CALL* Independence, Missouri us) CJ\K) FAMILV HISTORY LIBRARY 35 NORTH WEST TEMPLE SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH 84150 Reading This Book If, while reading the following pages of this book, the reader will keep these few facts in mind, a much clearer understanding of the contents will result. The format or style used in this book is known as the Modified Register System, which has been refined by the National Genealogical Society. Three types of numbers are used: one to uniquely identfy the individual, one to indicate the generation into which that person falls, and one to denote his or her birth-order within the nuclear family. The identification numbering system used in this book is called By Generation. The starting person is 1, his first child is 2. All the children are listed as generation number two, the grand-children are listed as generation number three and so on. Each person is assigned an ID number in sequential order by generation. When an individual is introduced in his/her separate sketch, the name appears in boldface letters with the surnames in all capital letters. The name is preceded by the identification number. The last given name is followed immediately by a superscript number indicating the number of generations from the starting individual in this book. In parentheses following the name is a list of direct ancestors back to the starting individual. Only the given name is listed, followed by the generation number in superscript. When the list of children is presented, the plus (+) sign indicates that more about this child will be presented in his/her separate sketch. The ID number is printed, followed by M/F indicating the sex. Next a small roman numeral in front of the name designates birth-order. Next the name is followed by the birth and death dates. The index is arranged alphabetically by surname. Under each surname, the given names are alphabetically arranged. The name is followed by the year of birth and death in square brackets. The number to the right indicates the page where this name appears. i TABLE OF CONTENTS Reading This Book i INTRODUCTION 1 CHAPTER 1 2 The Descendants of William Beardsley (1605-1661) 2 GENERATION NO. 1 2 1.

Paul Douglas12 SLAYTON 80 INDEX OF NAMES 81 vi INTRODUCTION WHAT'S IN A SURNAME? A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME WOULD SMELL AS SWEET? THE IMPORTANCE OF A SURNAME IS NOT IN IT SPELLING, IN ITS ORDER ON SOME RANDOM LIST, OR ITS CHRONOLOGICAL DERIVATION. BUT RATHER, ITS IMPORTANCE LIES IN THE PEOPLE ITS RESPRESENTS. AFTER ALL, WE ARE UNIQUE HUMAN BEINGS. WHILE CREATED IN THE LIKENESS OF OUR FATHERS IMAGE, IT IS OUR UNIQUELY CULIVATED GIFTS, TALENTS, STRENGTHS, AND SHORT COMINGS WHICH DEFINE OUR PERSONHOOD MORE ACCURATELY THAN OUR SURNAMES. BE THAT AS IT MAY, THE SUBTLE INFLUENCES BROUGHT TO OUR PERSONALITY BY OUR INHERITED NAME CANNOT BE IGNORED NOR SHOULD IT BE. THE PAINTER'S BRUSH THAT HIGHLIGHTS THE FINISHING TOUCHES ENHANCES THE CHARACTER OF THE PICTURE, AS CAN ONE'S NAME FROM THE PROMINENT ATTRIBUTES OR OBSCURITY OF THAT PERSON. ONE MUST CONSIDER THE MANNER IN WHICH HE IS PLACED. WHETHER IT BE WELL-EDUCATED GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION OR A DESOLATE, IMPOVERISHED ONE. EVEN A COUNTRY OR STATE, COUNTY OR SHIRE, CITY OR TOWN CAN MAKE THE TOTAL DIFFERENCE IN THE OUTCOME. THE PERSONAL UPBRINGING BY THE FAMILY, RELIGION, AND THE GOVERNMENT ARE CRITICAL KEY ROLES WHICH HELP MOLD ONE'S POTENTIAL. DANIEL WEBSTER DEFINES THE TRUE MEANING OF GENEALOGY. "IT IS A NOBLE FACULTY OF OUR NATURE WHICH ENABLES US TO CONNECT OUR THOUGHTS, SYMPATHIES, AND HAPPINESS, WITH WHAT IS DISTANT IN PLACE AND TIME; AND LOOKING BEFORE AND AFTER, TO HOLD COMMUNION AT ONCE WITH OUR ANCESTORS, AND OUR POSTERITY. THERE IS A MORAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL RESPECT FOR OUR ANCESTORS, WHICH ELEVATES THE CHARACTER AND IMPROVES THE HEART. NEXT TO THE SENSE OF RELIGIOUS DUTY AND MORAL FEELING, I HARDLY KNOW WHAT SHOULD BEAR WITH STRONGER OBLIGATION ON A LITERAL AND ENLIGHTENED MIND, THAN A CONSCIOUSNESS TOO, THAT IN ITS ACTS AND CONDUCT, AND EVEN IN ITS SENTIMENTS AND THOUGHTS, IT MAY BE ACTIVELY OPERATING ON THE HAPPINESS OF THOSE THAT COME AFTER IT." IN RESEARCHING, ONE MUST GAIN AN INSIGHT AND ACQUIRE AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE VALUABLE TECHNIQUES PRESENTED. HISTORICAL REVISIONS MAY YIELD FRUSTRATING EFFORTS IF NOT FULLY UNDERSTOOD. ONE CAN OVERCOME OBSTACLES BY EVALUATING A NEW APPROACH, INVESTIGATING THE BROADER QUESTIONS PRIOR TO INDEPTH RESEARCH OF THE SURNAME. IF IT CANNOT BE ANSWERED IN ITS PRESENT STATE COMPLETELY, ATTEMPT RESEARCH WITH A SCOPE OF MIND FOCUSED DURING THAT TIME PERIOD. WHEN RESEARCH HAS PROGRESSED SUFFICIENTLY, PARTIAL ANSWERS WILL HELP IN DEALING WITH THE LARGER ASPECTS OF QUESTIONS. THESE QUESTIONS CAN BE TENTATIVELY SUGGESTED, UNTIL ACTUAL PROVEN DOCUMENTATION CAN POSSIBLY BE COM FIRM ED. UNFORTUNATELY, THERE ARE TIMES WHEN DOCUMENTATION DOES NOT BECOME AVAILABLE, MAKING THE RESEARCH OF THAT SURNAME AT AN END. THE INACCESSIBILTY OF THESE RECORDS MAY BE DUE TO LOSS, FIRES, OR OTHER NATURAL CAUSES.

The Quincy Whig noted that the Mormons “appear, so far as we have seen, to be a mild, inoffensive people, who could not have given a cause for the persecution they have met with.” TheAlton Telegraph declared that in Missouri’s treatment of the Mormons “every principle of law, justice, and humanity, [had] been grossly outraged.”1 Over the next six years, however, feelings toward the Mormons gradually deteriorated, newspaper sentiment outside Nauvoo turned stridently negative, and in June 1844 their prophet was murdered by an enraged mob.

    Missouri's 1838 Extermination Order and the Mormons' Forced Removal

    William G. Hartley: Missouri’s 1838 Extermination Order 5 Missouri’s 1838 Extermination Order and the Mormons’ Forced Removal to Illinois William G. Hartley “If I am called here again, in case of a noncompliance of a treaty made,” Major General John B. Clark of the Missouri State militia warned Latter-day Saints captives, “you need not expect any mercy, but extermination, for I am determined the governor’s orders shall be executed.” General Clark was implementing orders he had received from Missouri’s Governor Lilburn W. Boggs, dated 27 October 1838, which stated: “Your orders are, therefore, to hasten your operations with all possible speed. The Mormons must be treat- ed as enemies, and must be exterminated or driven from the state if neces- sary for the public peace.”1 Extermination, a powerful word, means to eradicate but also implies killing.2 Governor Boggs’s extermination order called for a nineteenth-cen- tury version of what in recent discussions of Serbian treatment of Kosovars is termed “ethnic cleansing.” This article focuses on how the Latter-day Saint people complied with that extermination order and managed, with war-reduced resources and mostly during wintertime, to leave the state and seek safety in Quincy, Illinois, and other places of refuge.3 The “Mormon War” in Missouri The Mormon troubles in upper Missouri are well documented and explained in several published histories.4 In a nutshell, what in Missouri annals is termed “the Mormon War” broke out in the summer and fall of 1838, resulting in shooting, house burning, pillaging of crops and livestock, WILLIAM G.

  • Attempted Assassination of Lilburn Boggs

    Attempted Assassination of Lilburn Boggs

    Attempted Assassination of Lilburn Boggs The attempted assassination of Lilburn Boggs was an attempted murder of former Missouri Governor Lil- burn Boggs on May 6, 1842 in his home in Indepen- dence, Missouri. Background Lilburn Boggs was the sixth Governor of Missouri from 1836 to 1840. In the aftermath of the 1838 Mor- mon War which saw armed conflict between Missouri State Guard and a Mormon militia, Governor Boggs is- sued Missouri Executive Order 44, known by Mormons as the “Extermination Order”, branding Mormons “en- emies [who] must be exterminated or driven from the state if necessary for the public peace”. Assassination Attempt On the rainy evening of May 6, 1842, Boggs was shot by an unknown party who fired at him through a win- dow as he read a newspaper in his study. Boggs was hit Sixth Governor of Missouri Lilburn Boggs by large buckshot in four places: two balls were lodged in his skull, another lodged in his neck, and a fourth en- Some Mormons saw the assassination attempt tered his throat, whereupon Boggs swallowed it. Boggs positively: An anonymous contributor to The Wasp, a was severely injured. Several doctors—Boggs’ brother pro-Mormon newspaper in Nauvoo, Illinois wrote on among them—pronounced Boggs as good as dead; at May 28 that “Boggs is undoubtedly killed according to least one newspaper ran an obituary. To everyone’s great report; but who did the noble deed remains to be found surprise, Boggs not only survived, but his condition out.”[3] gradually improved. The crime was investigated by Sheriff J.
