Hubbard Family Papers Finding Aid Hubbard Family Papers Finding Aid Title: Hubbard Family Papers Dates (inclusive): 1835-1945 Creator: Hubbard Family members, descendent Havis Motisher Abstract: This is a collection of correspondence of the five children of Dr. Hiram F. Hubbard and his wife, Cynthia. The most substantial part of the collection dates between 1858 and 1868 when the family lived in Spring Green (Sauk County), Wisconsin. Part of the collection includes letters from the siblings to each other and their parents when they were away at boarding school in Madison. There are a significant number of letters from eldest daughter, Elizabeth, who was married and lived in Ohio. Another noteworthy group of letters is the correspondence from the elder son, Hiram Phay (“Fay”) Hubbard during his Civil War service with the Wisconsin 3rd Light Artillery Battery. Letters from other Union soldiers are also included. Correspondence from school friends of the siblings and some other relatives add to the collection, and provide insight into daily life during the mid 19th century. A smaller part of the collection relates to Longmont, where both Royal M. Hubbard and his sister, Kittie (Caroline D. Hubbard), and her husband, John Brigham Thompson, settled in 1871. These items include limited correspondence, deeds for lots in the Colony town of Longmont, and other financial and legal documents. They are of some value to researchers interested in the early settlement of Longmont. A small number of greeting cards, invitations, silhouettes, business cards, poems, and two unidentified photographs are also part of the collection. While not of great research value, they do provide evidence of the social customs of the day.

(Hiram) Hubbard, MD (born ca. 1802 in Massachusetts) and his wife, Cynthia (born ca. 1809 in Connecticut) lived in the small town of Spring Green, Wisconsin, located in Sauk County about 35 miles Southwest of Madison. They had moved there from their previous home in Olmsted, Cuyahoga County, Ohio (where the family is listed on the 1850 US Census.) The Hubbards had five children, two of whom later settled in Longmont, CO during the town’s founding year, 1871. Elizabeth, the eldest, (b. ca. 1829) married ca. 1849-50 while the family still resided in Ohio and did not move to Wisconsin. She married Melvin Parmely, a dry goods merchant and remained in Ohio. Elizabeth (“Lizzie” to her family) during the period of this correspondence had four children: Mary (known as Minnie) b.1852, Kittie, Dickey, and Willie Fay. She and her husband lived first in Sullivan Ohio and then ca. 1858 moved to Ashland, Ohio. The 1870 census of the family in Ashland OH seems to indicate that both Dicky and Willie Fay died and the couple had had two more children: Harriett (b.1866) and Melvin P. (born 1869). Minerva or Marina (both names show on census records) was known to her family as “Minnie.” Born ca. 1838, she married D.T. (Temple) Noyes in 1861. Noyes was killed in Civil War action in the summer of 1862. Minnie remained for some time in the home the couple had established in Decatur IL. Hiram Phay Hubbard (born ca. 1840) was known to the family as “Fay” or “Brother Fay.” He studied in Madison (ca 1859-1861) and then enlisted in the Wisconsin 3rd Light Artillery Battery on August 26, 1861 as a private, was promoted to 2nd Lieutenant in August 1862, and to 1st Lieutenant on March 8, 1864. He was mustered out of the Union Army October 10, 1864. No information has been found about his life subsequent to his Civil War Service. Caroline D. Hubbard (known to friends and family as “Kittie” and occasionally as “Carrie”) was born ca. 1842. She studied music at the Madison Female Seminary during 1861-1862 and then returned to Spring Green to teach piano. On May 3, 1866, Kittie married John Brigham Thompson in Dane County, Wisconsin. Thompson (born 8/21/1841 in Machias, Maine) had moved with his family to Oshgosh WI in 1856. On April 21, 1861 he enlisted in Company E of the 2nd Wisconsin Infantry. In 1871, the Thompsons moved to Longmont, CO where J.B. Thompson became a successful hardware merchant and respected community leader and Kittie was a stalwart in the temperance movement. They had one son, John Royal Thompson (b. December 23, 1874), who died at the age of 36 on June 18, 1909, leaving a wife and son, John Frederick Thompson. At some point, Kittie’s widowed mother, Cynthia, moved to Longmont and is listed on the 1880 census as living in the Thompson household. Kittie died in Longmont 10/31/1893. J.B. Thompson subsequently married Maude Wirt in 1895. He died in Longmont on September 19, 1921. (See also They Came To Stay listing for J.B. Thompson) Royal Millard Hubbard, born in Ohio in October 1847, was known affectionately by his family (and signed most of his letters) as “Millie.” During the Civil War years, Royal was too young to serve and spent those years either home in Spring Green or boarding in Madison WI with family friends named Bliss, where he clerked in their book store. He moved to the new Colony town of Longmont in 1871 and became Postmaster in 1872, a position he held for 14 years until August 1886, when he resigned. Royal operated a grocery store on Main Street in Longmont, which also served as the Post Office. On November 2, 1873 at Library Hall in Longmont, Royal married Mary Adelaide “Addie” Easton, one of Longmont’s first school teachers and niece of Byron and Mary Carr, Longmont’s first teachers. Royal and Adelaide had four children: Kittie, named for her Aunt, Royal’s sister ( b. 1875, d. 1957); John (b. 1877, d. 1953); Royal Jr. (b.1881 d. 1955); Gladys (b.1884 d. 1961). Royal M. Hubbard died in Longmont September 1, 1890 at the age of 49. Addie operated the Hubbard grocery store after Royal’s death until it was sold on May 3, 1907. Neither John, Royal, nor Gladys married. Kittie Hubbard married Jacob Choate on August 16, 1907. They had one child, Havis, who married Charles S. Motisher. The Motishers had no children. They lived in Denver for many years and later retired to Arizona, but retained a keen interest in Longmont. The letters in this collection were preserved and donated to the Longmont Museum & Cultural Center by Havis Motisher. (See also They Came to Stay listing for Royal Hubbard.)

The 1918 Championship was held in Annapolis, where Navy won on the home waters of the Severn. The following year, Navy recorded an undefeated sea- son en route to the championship in 1919.

Slaves from Africa were brought to Cuba to work on the sugar plantations, the sugar or rum distilled from the sugar, was then exported to England or the United States, and from these places manufactured goods were sent to Africa in exchange for the slaves, who were shipped back to Cuba to work on the plantations. For four hundred years Cuba’s sugar trade flourished, and by the mid 1800’s, the United States was importing 80 percent of Cuba’s sugar production. Up until October 19, 1960 when the U. S. placed a trade embargo on Cuba, the island remained a strong trading partner of the United States, sugar and rum being Cuba’s largest exports to the States. The United States took a great interest in Cuba for business reasons, and at various times offered to buy the island from Spain. Over the years, Cuban rebels had fought Spain to gain independence for the island, and for the three years preceding 1898, the fighting was intense. Because of this unrest and the United States economic interests in Cuba, the U.S.

  • On the Guemes Island Ferry, That Fall I Went Back to AHS in the Spring and Took a PG Course in Business Math and Typing
    Lt William L. Maris, USN. (Ret) After graduating from HS in June 1938 and while still working part time as a “Deckhand” on the Guemes Island Ferry, that fall I went back to AHS in the spring and took a PG course in Business Math and typing. My Father and my Boss, decided it was time for me to get a real job (my Boss who had been a Chief Boatswain Mate in the Navy in WW-1), so off we went to the Navy Recruiting Office in Bellingham, WA. The Chief Petty Officer in Charge, asked Dad why he wanted me to join the Navy and Dad told the Chief there was no work in Anacortes and he was tired of feeding me so please sign me up! I was 20 years old the October 16th, 1939 and required my Fathers signature to Enlist. After getting the paper work done, four months on the waiting list, after we finally got a proper Birth Certificate with a “Gold Seal”, The Chief wouldn’t accept the Birth Certificates the State Statistics Office kept sending without the Seal on it. I ended up being 26 on the waiting list in the 13th Naval District. Around the first of December I received correspondence from the Naval Recruiting Office Seattle that I had been accepted and to report in to the Recruiting Office in the Federal Building in Seattle on 10 December 1939. After reporting in they logged me in and gave me a Voucher and sent me to the YMCA for dinner and berthing for the night and to report back to the Recruiting Officer at 0800 the next day.

Forty years ago the Maine Medical Association appointed a committee to investigate the legend, that ten years before, an important post-mortem examination .had been performed on the body of a man, who had suffered many years from an alleged dislocation of the hip joint. The idea in trying to obtain a re­ port of the examination was to discover information that might be of value to the profession in the diagnosis and treatment of such dislocation, in general, while additional interest attached to the case owing to the thirty-seven years that had elapsed since I the original injury.
