TO THE STURGEON FAMILY This family history has been written at your request. Although I am a "Sturgeon" by marriage and not by birth, I have been very interested in this genealogy and so many of you have asked for the information that I have found, that I felt that it should be printed. Puting a family history together is like working a giant jig-saw puzzle, except that there is never an end. Many of the parts are missing, but I intend to keep searching and I am sure that more information will sur­ face, so keep in touch with me. As I researched this family, I tried to find a marriage license, or other information to provide documented proof of the relationship of each an­ cestor and their descendants. However, the Sturgeons were found to be a long line of pioneers who went very early into unsettled territories. For that reason, I have had to rely, in some cases, on curcumstantial evidence or go through the process of eliminating other possibilities in order to reach the conclusions. I will try to explain each of these sit­ uations as they appear. Please let me know when you can correct any­ thing or add to what I have. I hope you will enjoy getting acquainted with your ancestors and cousins as much as I have enjoyed finding them for you. Sincerely, Mrs. Charles (Maxine) Sturgeon 123 S. McKinley Enid, Oklahoma 73701 1 CHARACTER AND CHARACTERISTICS OF THE STURGEONS. As I have seen and know the Sturgeons, there seem to be two distinct types of them that appear to be almost racial. The one is tall, athletic, fair complexioned, with blue eyes and brown hair—Celtic. The other heavier built, red and full fleshed, light haired—Teutonic. But there ar : many traits and peculiarities of character which belong to both. They, as a rule, are conservative, unsentimental, and undemonstrative. They are thrifty, indus­ trious and honest. They are independent in thought and do not easily change their purposes, plans, or habits. Isaac Hughes Sturgeon, comparing his father's people with his mother's people, the Hunes, found them to be "less inclined to social amenities and duties and to be satisfied if they had plenty of hog. hominy, raiment, and shelter." The women are domestic and make fine wives and good housekeepers, and are especially benevolent and kind to the poor. No poor neighbor will suffer so long as they have anything in their larder. The Sturgeons are inclined to be religious but not devout, although there have been several of the family in the ministry.' Few beggars, paupers or criminals are found of the name. They were originally Presbyterians and Democrats, but there have been many lapses in later years in both their Church and political affilia­ tions. They have strong vitality and many of them, as will be observed in following out their lives, have lived to good old years. There are two danger points for them; one is the early forties and the other in the early sixties. If they pass these safely, they are likely to go to well advanced years. But their wives and daughters are frequent widows. from "Sturgeons of North America" by Mc Coy 2 €oat of Arms sturgeon "Az three sturgeons naiant in pale or fretty gu"with " a sturgeon fretty gu" above 3 BRIEFLY The family name of "Sturgeon" is not a common name. A large majority of those who have this name in the United States are descendants of Samuel Sturgeon who xmmxgrated from Ireland to Pennsylvania in 1730 withTIT^ eight sons and probably a wife and some daughters. The youngest son was John Sturgeon, born in 1722. John evidently took part in the Revolutionary War but there is no official record. Sometime before 1780, he and his brother Robert, brought their families to north central Kentucky, a land where Daniel Boone had led the first settlers only a few years before. Or perhaps they came along with Boone. John's son, Jeremiah, married and settled down in this area. On today's map of Kentucky, the border of Harrison and Pendleton Counties would be about where they lived. John and his other sons and daughters soon left to live in Shelby County, Kentucky. Some of these, including John, went on south to claim land in Hart County. Others were among the first settlers across the Ohio River into Crawford County, Indiana. Even though the Sturgeon brothers were settled in different areas by 1800. there is much evidence that the family ties were very strong. We find them moving back and forth to live near uncles and cousins. Even the cousins who were raised back in Pennsylvania came later to live near the other Sturgeons in Kentucky and Indiana. Basically, this history concerns the Jeremiah who stayed in the Pendle­ ton County, Ky. area. His son, Jeremiah , was born in Kentucky in 1780. As explained on page 10, these Jeremiah's will be referred to as Jeremiah I and Jeremiah II. You will notice that there were many other Jeremiah Sturgeons in this family. They loved that name J I Jeremiah Sturgeon II also stayed in northern Kentucky. There is no record of him filing a deed to any land that I have found. It seems that he moved often but not far. His name is found on the county tax list every year, but in different counties from year to year. Each of these ^records say "no land. " In this unsettled area, he could just live there without filing claim and no doubt did. I am thoroughly convinced that Jeremiah Sturgeon II was the father of Wil­ lis, Richard, George W. , Peter, Susan and possibly others. The following pages will explain why I arrived at this conclusion. 4 THE STURGEON FAMILY BEFORE 1730 Every Sturgeon researcher is indebted to Claudius T. McCoy whose book, "Genealogical History of the Sturgeons of North America" was written in 1926. The following is taken from this book: There is a well diffused tradition among the Sturgeons that their for­ bears came from Holland to England and thence to Ireland and that the name in Holland was STEER JON, which, by anglicization in England, became Sturgeon. It is also claimed that the linen industry was brought by the Sturgeons from Holland and introduced by them to Ireland, and some of the Sturgeons are said to have old flax hackles, which, they as­ sert, are heirlooms from their ancestors in Holland. " (There is a will left by a John Sturgeon in 1780 that mentions this - "I give to my wife Saley the woolen wheels and cards and one best flax wheel and hackle. ") ". There is a tradition, that the Sturgeons were originally French Huguenots. ...in 1524, at "Babergh Hundred," there was a settlement of aliens and one Thomas Sturgeon was designated as a Frenchman. This was in Suffolk Co. , England, the home of the Sturgeons, and some of them might well have gone over into Ireland, as the tradition af­ firms. But the majority of the traditions of the family favor Holland as the ancestral home. The settlement of the Sturgeons in Ireland does not long antedate their migration to America. There were Sturgeons in Dublin in the early part of the seventeenth century and Sturgeons in the counties of Wexford Down, Armagh, Fermanagh, and Monaghan in 1641. " The "Susquahanah and Juinita Valleys in the Revolutionary War, " a book which contains some Sturgeon biography, has this to say: "The Sturgeons were a numerous race in Old Lancaster, (Pa.) settling there, tradition says, between the years 1720 and 1730, three emigrant brothers, William, Jeremiah and Samuel.

  • The Blackjacks (Blackjack Mulligan & Blackjack Lanza
    THE BLACKJACKS (BLACKJACK MULLIGAN & BLACKJACK LANZA) Inducted by Stan Hansen While Blackjack Mulligan loved his time teaming up with Blackjack Lanza, he knew that it was too good to last. “Most tag teams are one weak guy and one strong guy, not two main eventers. Lanza and I were two main eventers, which was hard to keep as a team,” explained Mulligan. “Usually a team is formed by a weakness of one who’s an undercard guy, who’s a great talent that’s never going to make it big, and this other great talent that pulls the team along. But they compliment each other together … We were main eventers so we didn’t really hold the longevity that we should have.” From their initial pairing in 1972 in Indianapolis under the guidance of manager Bobby Heenan to their dissolution in 1975 when Mulligan left to go solo, the Blackjacks were just about the most feared team out there. Jack Lanza was a 6-foot-5, 250-pounder from Albuquerque, New Mexico, who broke into the business in 1962 after being trained by Verne Gagne. A former sociology teacher after attending the University of Minnesota, he started as the babyface “Cowboy” Jack Lanza before being paired with Heenan in Indianapolis a heel. “I hit if off with Blackjack Lanza the first day I met him. It was just one of those things. We made each other laugh and became the best of friends,” wrote Heenan in his first book. Bob Windham, a 6-foot-9, 345-pound ex-Marine who studied education—and football—at West Texas State, lined up with the New York Jets of the AFL until breaking his leg.

Abstract One hundred years ago, the USFS began its forest research program in a two-room cabin near Flagstaff, Arizona, with one staff person, Gustaf A. Pearson. The site became known as the Fort Valley Experiment Station and was the first in a national network of research sites developed to address uncertainties regarding the rehabilitation and conservation for forest and range lands in the nation. Fort Valley’s name has changed over the century and for today’s reader, Fort Valley Experimental Forest (FVEF) is used. The conference recognized pioneering silvicultural, range, and watershed research and how the work continues today. Invited papers and contributed poster papers were presented during the first day of the conference. The second day’s schedule included field trips and the dedication of new monuments at the historic Fort Valley Experimental Forest headquarters. The conference consisted of USFS retired researchers, current scientists, and students that addressed issues affecting the perpetuation of the ponderosa pine forest of the Southwest.
