PREFACE

When my mother-in-law, Calista (Crane) Harris, died in 1993, Sally and I found ourselves in possession of several boxes of miscellaneous family papers. More than once while she was living with us, Calista had expressed her regret that, when she died, she would be burdening us with a lot of old things that she hadn’t gotten around to throwing away. Because we were inveterate packrats, and already had a house crammed with books, papers and other memorabilia, another box or two didn’t seem like too onerous a legacy for her to leave us. After her death, the boxes and her other possessions just sat where they were placed, until one day Sally began to peruse their contents. As might be expected, she found papers and photographs from both the Crane and Harris sides of her family. In particular, she found a number of items related to the McCullys. We knew a little about Sally's McCully connections. When we moved from California to Oregon in 1966, we met Eula McCully, an elderly “cousin” who lived in Salem. We spent a pleasant couple of days with Eula, during which time she showed us ancestral properties in Salem and told us quite a bit of family history. Unfortunately (but as is often the case with young folks, like we were), we weren’t very interested in genealogy at that time. We didn’t write anything down, and didn’t retain much of what she told us. We left Oregon in 1968 with fond memories of a nice visit with a nice lady named McCully, but that was all. Fast forward a quarter-century: as first Sally, and then I, gleaned through Calista’s family papers, the name McCully - to that date, known to us only from our acquaintance with one elderly woman - came to represent a family with ties stretching across North America from Nova Scotia to Oregon. Included were tantalizing bits on pioneer life in Ohio and Iowa; trips to the California Gold Rush; family travels on the Oregon Trail; participation in the early statehood of Oregon; and steam-boating on Pacific Northwest rivers. To say we became intrigued is putting it mildly. In subsequent years, we followed these McCullys (and a lot of their relatives) through libraries, archives, museums, and cemeteries from Oregon to Nova Scotia - and back again, several times - with stops in New Brunswick, Maine, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, Wyoming, California - just to name the principal stops - and across via the World Wide Web. As so often happens when one gets deeply involved in historical research, some of these people we never knew became very real to us. Perhaps some of them will become real to you, too.

INTRODUCTION: FAMILY ORIGINS

Family tradition has it that Sally's line of McCullys (rarely, McCulley) came to Nova Scotia from Northern Ireland. While tradition in this case seems reasonable, and might be accurate, there is so far no link between the earliest positively- known North American McCully of the line and his parents in Northern Ireland, or anywhere else. The earliest (nearly certain) record we have is from Nova Scotia in 1774 (see later). The first things we thought we knew about "our" (Sally’s) McCullys in the Atlantic Provinces turned out to be incorrect. A McCully descendant a generation or two before us had traveled from Oregon to Nova Scotia to view the land of her ancestors. She found reference to a Samuel McCully who apparently had come to Nova Scotia from Northern Ireland in the 1760s. She thought she had found the father of John McCully, Sally's great-great-grandfather, the earliest ancestor for whom the family had any information. (John reportedly was born in Nova Scotia in 1784.) Time proved that the Samuel in question was not the father of John McCully, but that first mistake was not to be the last. In fact, confusing and erroneous information on the Nova Scotia McCully origins has been published to the present day. The problems primarily arise from misidentifications among the plethora of Samuels and Williams in the first several generations of McCullys in the Maritime Provinces. There are still significant unanswered questions about the early Canadian McCullys, but three groups can now be separated with some confidence, and substantial lines of descendants have been traced from each of the three. Because McCully was an unusual name in early Maritime Canada, and because all three families were in Colchester County, Nova Scotia, more or less contemporaneously, there have been a number of attempts made to link the three families. It seems likely that at least two of the families are closely related; if not in Nova Scotia, then in the previous generation in Northern Ireland. However, nothing very substantial links the third group, and so far no concrete tie has been found between any of them. For now, each line must be treated separately, the family line in this study beginning with a Samuel McCully first identified in Nova Scotia in 1774.1 * * *

In the following pages, we follow the descendants of Samuel McCully - the first known of this line in North America - through six generations. The sixth generation members are identified only by name, birth date, and death date. Some of this

generation are still living, or only recently deceased, and we have respected their privacy in this respect. We have employed a somewhat different identification system than is used in many genealogy texts. Rather than denoting ancestral members by their generation number, e.g., John5 (William4, Robert3, Samuel2, William1), we have used their actual number as given in the "family tree," e. g., John40 (William20, Robert10, Samuel4, William1). We think this makes it easier to follow a line back through the text; the generations are identified by the chapter a person is in, and each person is indexed by "tree" number and page number. Our approach identifying members of this particular "family tree" has been to think in terms of "family," rather than "blood." If children were adopted, they are "family." If children from more than one marriage were raised together, they are "family," even if some had no "McCully blood." Children from previous or later marriages raised with no close contact with the "McCullys," may be acknowledged in the text, but are not numbered. Obviously, there is much more information available for some people than for others. In every case, we've given as complete a picture as we can, while keeping the narratives fairly succinct. If you are interested in more detail, check the "chapter notes" at the back of the book. Not only do they include citations for our sources, but there are many additional items about people and places that didn't quite fit in the concise narratives.

The 1788 deed for Great Village lands, John Mahon to the heirs of Samuel McCully

CHAPTER ONE GENERATION ONE

Samuel McCully1 is known for certain from only three documents. Some time prior to 26 August 1788, he purchased from John Mahon 600 acres of land at Great Village, near Londonderry, Colchester County, Nova Scotia. Samuel McCully was deceased before Mahon drew up the deed, and the property was granted to the McCully heirs [1]. Samuel died intestate [2] and no probate papers have been found, so his heirs were not identifiable until the property was sold, again. On 12 April 1809, Samuel’s oldest son, William McCully, sold to his brothers John McCully and Samuel McCully, for £60 his rights to the Great Village property. At the time, all three brothers were living in Horton, Kings County, Nova Scotia [3]. Some time before April 1812, John and Samuel sold the property to William Spencer of Londonderry for 110 pounds, and both left Horton soon after [4]. Three earlier documents probably involve this Samuel McCully [5]. On 16 April 1774, a man of this name was witness to a land sale between Samuel Nichols and Joshua Lamb, both of Onslow, Colchester County, Nova Scotia [6]. A March 1775 inventory of the business records of the late Henry Glen, a merchant who did business in both Londonderry and Truro, showed a Samuel McCully owing a debt of a little over one pound [7]. Finally, on 30 November 1778, a Samuel McCully sold to William Martin 500 acres of land in Londonderry, for 40 pounds [8]. While others have conjectured about "our" Samuel McCully's origins and family connections [9], he cannot be identified with any certainty until 1774-1775 when he was involved in the above "adult" (at least 18 years of age?) activities. Except for acting as witness to an Onslow land sale, he is known only from Londonderry. However, he is unaccounted for anywhere between 1778 (sale of Londonderry land) and 1788 (deed for Great Village land), so it is possible he was not living in the area all the time. Nothing is known about Samuel's wife, either before or after his death. Their first known child was born ca 1781, suggesting a marriage about 1780. Combining this estimate with his first known "adult" transactions may provide a reasonable date of birth for Samuel around 1755. After Samuel's death ca. 1788, his wife may have remarried; the fact that she is never named in later documents, or mentioned in family reminiscences, may mean that she also died relatively young.

Samuel McCully and his wife had three known children: 2. William McCully born ca 1781. 3. John McCully born 25 August 1784. 4. Samuel McCully born ca 1787.

CHAPTER TWO GENERATION TWO

2. William McCully [Samuel1] [1] was born in Nova Scotia ca 1781. In his infancy, he presumably lived on land at Great Village, Colchester County, that his father Samuel McCully1 had purchased from John Mahon some time in the 1780s [2]. The elder McCully was dead by 1788, and it isn't known how long after his death the family stayed on the Great Village property. In 1809, when William sold to his two younger brothers his inherited rights to the Great Village property, all three were living at Horton, Kings County, Nova Scotia [3]. By 1814 he was at Liverpool (now, Richibucto), Northumberland (now, Kent) County, New Brunswick. There, on 19 March 1814 he married Anne Elizabeth Kollock, the daughter of Jacob Kollock and Miriam Horton [4]. She was born 1795 in Northumberland (Kent) County. William and Anne lived at Richibucto for over 60 years, he dying 6 November 1879 at age 98, and she in 1886. They are both buried in the Protestant cemetery at Richibucto [5]. Despite their long tenure in the area, and with many descendants in New Brunswick, very little is known about them. Presumably he was a farmer, and probably the “William McCollay” listed on the 1832 Kent County tax records as having paid quit receipts of £3, 4 on 150 acres [6]. There is no record of him applying for a Provincial land grant, nor are there deeds showing him buying or selling land in the area [7]. The one land record we have found with his name on it was executed 16 August 1820 by Simon Kollock, grandfather of Anne Elizabeth (Kollock) McCully. Simon was at that time living in Onslow, Colchester County, Nova Scotia. For £50 he transferred his land near Richibucto (acreage unspecified) to William McCully and James Harrington, to pass on to his great grandchildren [8]. A 1933 Trenton, New Jersey, news article that reportedly was about William McCully’s ancestry was actually a (very confused) biography of Simon Kollock and Jacob Kollock, Anne Elizabeth’s grandfather and father [9].

Children of William McCully and Anne Kollock: 5. Mary Jane McCully born 26 October 1814 6. Catherine McCully born 26 April 1817 7. Anne E. McCully born 17 February 1820 8. William Shepherd McCully born 24 January 1823 9. Rebecca McCully born 19 February 1827 10. Samuel Thomas McCully born 29 May 1834

3. John McCully [Samuel1] was born in Nova Scotia 25 August 1784. Some family records (with no documentation) say he was born in Halifax, but it seems most likely that John’s family were in Colchester or Kings County at the time of his

8 birth. It was some time in the 1780s that John’s father Samuel McCully purchased from John Mahon 600 acres of land at Great Village, near Londonderry, Colchester County. He apparently was living in Londonderry at the time. The deed was not recorded until 6 August 1788, after Samuel was dead [2], so there is no clear record how long the family lived in Londonderry. In 1809, when William McCully sold to John and his younger brother Samuel his inherited rights to the Great Village property, all three were living at Horton, Kings County, Nova Scotia [3]. John and brother Samuel McCully appear to have sold the Great Village property about 1810. At the time, they both identified themselves as being "of Horton" [10]. Yet, in a land grant petition John filed in 1820, John stated that he had lived in New Brunswick for 21 years [11], which would have had him arriving in New Brunswick ca 1799. Because he was married in New Brunswick within a year of being "of Horton," we have suspected that he had strong ties in New Brunswick long before he sold his property in Nova Scotia. He may have lived with and/or worked for one of the Nova Scotian families that relocated to Westmorland (now, Albert) County, New Brunswick in the 1790s. For example, David Copp, father of John's future wife, was a mariner who transported goods back and forth across the Bay of Fundy [12]. If John was making regular trips for him, he may have felt he was "resident" in both provinces [13]. On 23 March 1811 John married Mary Copp of Hopewell, Albert County, New Brunswick [14]. Family tradition is that Mary, the daughter of David Copp and Mary Pike, was born 12 November 1788 in Eastport, Washington County, Maine [15]. That may be true, as David Copp was a mariner, and had interests in areas throughout the Bay of Fundy and Passamaquoddy Bay, including Eastport. However, the land records we have been able to find suggest that the family was living in Hopewell at the time of Mary’s birth, and did not own property in Eastport until 1808. At the time of his marriage in Hopewell, John was identified as farming in nearby Hillsborough, Westmorland (now, Albert) County (although we can find no record that he owned land there). On 11 April 1811, he purchased for £525 a 950-acre farm at Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick, from his new brother-in-law and sister-in-law James and Catherine (Copp) Wallace [16]. John and Mary moved to the property at Sussex soon after purchase, and their first child was born there March 1812. About 1815, John’s brother Samuel McCully moved from Kent County, New Brunswick, to Sussex, and on 8 August 1816 for £200, Samuel bought 450 acres of John and Mary’s farm [17]. On 10 January 1817, John and Mary sold another 300 acres of their land to William and Eunice Read of Sussex (for £20) [18]. They continued to live and farm at Sussex until May 1822, when they sold the rest of their original Sussex land to Robert and Rachel Colpitts [19]. John and Mary had not received government land in New Brunswick, so in 1820 John and a number of other Sussex residents jointly petitioned for Crown lands [11]. John was eventually awarded 200 acres, but not until after the family had

9 left Canada and moved to Ohio [20]. John gave his brother Samuel McCully power of attorney to sell the land [21], which was done in 1830 [22]. About May 1822, John moved his family from New Brunswick to Ohio. We have so far been unable to find them in any ship passenger lists, but it seems likely that they sailed from Saint John, New Brunswick, to Baltimore, Maryland, and went overland to the vicinity of Steubenville, Ohio. They may have lived for a short time near the Ohio River in Warren Township, Jefferson County, Ohio. Then, on 30 July 1822 John purchased 110 acres of land near present-day Dillonvale, Smithfield Township, Jefferson County [23]. The family lived and farmed there for four years, selling the property on 16 September 1826 [24]. We can find no Ohio land records for the McCullys from September 1826 until March 1832 [25], although they were in the area 10 April 1827 when in Steubenville John applied for United States citizenship [26]. John was in Sussex, New Brunswick, in November 1828 [27], and it is possible that the entire family was in Canada for an extended period during those years. The 1830 Federal census recorded them in Warren Township, south of Steubenville [28], and apparently that is where they were living when John died 19 August 1830. He had been awarded United States citizenship on 19 April 1830 [29]. We have been unable to determine the cause of his death, or where he is buried. John died intestate, and in October 1830 Mary (Copp) McCully was appointed administrator of his estate. William Neely and John Neely were appointed by the Court as guardians of the McCully children [30]. The Neelys were neighbors of the McCullys in Warren Township. On 31 March 1832, Mary McCully purchased a 160-acre farm in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio [31]. At the time of the purchase, she was described as “of Guernsey County;” it seems likely that, after John's death, she had moved to Guernsey County to be near Henry Hayward, believed to be John McCully's half-brother [32]. On 21 March 1833, Mary married 2nd John McPherson, a recently widowed Methodist minister. John was born in Virginia ca 1768. He had married 1st Ann S. [White?], and with their family the McPhersons arrived in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County, Ohio in 1816 [33, 34, 35], where he was still living in 1833. His wife Ann died 18 January 1832, and was buried in the Sewellsville, Ohio, Methodist Episcopal Church Cemetery [36]. Mary lived on the McPherson land in Kirkwood Township, at first presumably taking the younger McCully children with her, and leaving the older sons at the Londonderry farm. By 1840, Mary and John McPherson were alone at Kirkwood, and all the McCully children were at Londonderry [37]. In February 1844, Mary sold the Londonderry property to her sons David and Asa McCully. In April 1844, they in turn sold the property [38], and the entire McCully family moved to Iowa. Mary went with them, leaving John McPherson in Ohio. Apparently there was no divorce [39]. John McPherson lived his final years in Kirkwood with his son-in-law and daughter Lewis and Rebecca (McPherson) Jones, dying there in 1850 [33, 40].

10

In Iowa, Mary lived with her son David McCully first near Danville, Des Moines County, and then at New London, Henry County. In the 1850 census, she used the name McPherson [41], but all later references refer to her as Mary McCully. In March 1852, most of her family left New London to move to Oregon, and she accompanied them [42, 43]. The families settled first at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon, with Mary living first with either David McCully or Asa McCully, until her daughter Mary Jane (McCully) Love arrived from Iowa in 1853. She lived with the Loves in Harrisburg until her death 9 September 1871 [44, 45, 46]. A family story is that she seriously dislocated her hip about 1859, and never walked again. She is buried in the Masonic Cemetery near Harrisburg.

4. Samuel McCully [Samuel1] was born in Nova Scotia ca 1788 [47], probably in Colchester or Kings County. We have no information on him until 12 May 1809, when Samuel’s oldest brother, William McCully, sold to Samuel and their brother John McCully, for £60, William’s rights to the Great Village property left them by their deceased father. At that time, all three brothers were living in Horton, Kings County, Nova Scotia [3]. John and Samuel sold the Great Village property and left Horton within the next two years [10]. From Horton, Samuel McCully apparently went directly to Richibucto, Northumberland (now, Kent) County, New Brunswick, where his brother William McCully was living. On 20 September 1812, Samuel and four other Richibucto residents applied for a Crown land grant on the Richibucto River. The grant was not immediately acted on, and they applied again 15 February 1813. Samuel received his grant of Crown land 30 January 1815, 200 acres at Smith’s Corner, Weldford Parish, Kent County, New Brunswick [48, 49]. It is doubtful he lived on the property (it seems more likely he lived with his brother William), for by March 1815 he was a resident of Sussex, Kings County, and on 4 March 1815 he sold his Crown grant to Andrew Sterling Ritchie of Saint John, New Brunswick [50]. On 8 August 1816, for £200, Samuel bought 450 acres of land at Sussex from his brother John McCully [17], and they lived adjacent to one another until John moved his family to Ohio in 1822. Samuel continued to live and farm there the

11

rest of his life. Samuel married in Sussex 2 May 1816 Sarah Morton, daughter of George Augustus Morton and Agnes Hutchinson [51]. Sarah was born in Sussex 26 May 1792. She died 23 June 1831, and is buried in the Pioneer Cemetery near Penobsquis, Kings County [52]. When Samuel prepared his will 28 February 1859, he did not include any real estate among his assets. Some of the 640 acres he owned when John McCully moved to Ohio had been deeded to his sons in 1852 [54]. He died in 1859 or 1860, as his will was filed in probate court in 1860. His tombstone at the Penobsquis Pioneer Cemetery gives a death date of 5 February 1859 [52], but the date of his will is clearly 28 February 1859 [54].

CHAPTER THREE GENERATION THREE

5. Mary Jane McCully [William2, Samuel1] was born 26 October 1814 at Richibucto, Kent County, New Brunswick [1]. She apparently never married, and was living in her parents’ household in Richibucto in 1861 [2] and 1871 [3] and in Richibucto with her nephew John N. McCully in 1881 [4], 1891 [12] and 1901 [1]. She died 2 June 1904 [5], and is buried in the Richibucto Protestant Cemetery [6].

6. Catherine McCully [William2, Samuel1] was born 26 April 1817 at Richibucto, Kent County, New Brunswick. She married there 29 August 1846 Cooley Hurd [7]. Cooley was born in Nova Scotia 9 August 1817. He and Catherine were living next to Catherine’s parents in Richibucto in 1861, at which time Cooley was identified as an [2]. In 1871, Catherine was living at the same location, with one of her daughters [3], and in 1881 she was recorded there alone [4]. In 1901 she was living in Richibucto with her nephew John McCully and her sisters [1]. She died in Richibucto 17 April 1903, and is buried in the Richibucto Protestant Cemetery [5, 6]. We haven't determined if Catherine and Cooley Hurd ever divorced. He is shown in the 1891 and 1901 New Brunswick censuses as living at Moncton, Westmorland County [8, 9]. We could find no death date for him.

Children of Cooley Hurd and Catherine McCully: 21. Annie Elizabeth Hurd born 21 July 1848 22. Tamar Hurd born 7 June 1852

7. Anne E. McCully [William2, Samuel1] was born 17 February 1820 in Richibucto, Kent County, New Brunswick [1]. She apparently never married, and was living in her parents' household in Richibucto in 1861 [2] and 1871 [3] and in Richibucto with her nephew John N. McCully in 1881 [4], 1891 [10] and 1901 [1]. She died ca 11 June 1903 [5], and is buried in the Richibucto Protestant Cemetery [6].

8. William Shepherd McCully [William2, Samuel1] was born 24 January 1823 at Richibucto, Kent County, New Brunswick, and was baptized in the Richibucto Anglican Church 29 June 1825 [11]. Although he did not die until 27 January 1863 (his headstone is in the Richibucto Protestant Cemetery [9], we have been unable to find him in any New Brunswick censuses, can find no marriage record, and have found only one land record that possibly refers to him: 100-acre Provincial land grant in Weldford Parish, Kent County, 8 April 1857 [12].

9. Rebecca McCully [William2, Samuel1] was born 19 February 1827 in Richibucto, Kent County, New Brunswick [1], and baptized in the Richibucto

13

Anglican Church 19 February 1830 [11]. She did not marry, but had one son. She was living in her parents’ household in Richibucto in 1861 [2] and 1871 [3], and in Richibucto with her son John N. McCully in 1891 [10], 1901 [1], and 1911 [13]. She apparently was unrecorded in the 1881 census, but it seems likely she was with her son then, also. She died in 1918, and is buried in the Richibucto Protestant Cemetery [6].

Child of Rebecca McCully and undetermined father: 23. John Nelson McCully born 6 February 1857

10. Samuel Thomas McCully [William2, Samuel1] was born 29 May 1834 in Richibucto, Kent County, New Brunswick [14]. He was in his parents' household in Richibucto in 1861 [2], then in 1862 married Julia Isabelle Harrington. Julia, the daughter of James Harrington and Mary Eliza Kollock (sister of Anne Elizabeth [Kollock] McCully), was born in Richibucto 8 October 1828 [143]. Samuel and Julia farmed all their lives, first in Rexton, Kent County, until at least 1864, then at Havelock and Carsonville, Kings County [15]. On 9 March 1891, their son William Shepherd McCully received a Provincial land grant of 97 acres near Havelock, Kings County [12], and Samuel and Julia moved with him and occupied a small house on the property. In 1909 that farm was sold, and they moved to another farm in Manhurst, Kings County, New Brunswick [16]. Apparently Samuel and Julia were at Manhurst when they died, Julia in 1911 and Samuel in 1916. They are both buried at the Corn Hill Baptist Cemetery in Corn Hill, Kings County [17].

11. Samuel McCully [John3, Samuel1] was born 6 March 1812 at Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick. Until 1822, he lived with his parents on the farm that his father John McCully had purchased in 1811 [18]. About May 1822, he moved with his family from New Brunswick to Ohio, settling first on 110 acres of land near present-day Dillonvale, Jefferson County [19]. The family lived and farmed there for four years, selling the property on 16 September 1826 [20]. We can find no Ohio land records for the McCullys from September 1826 until March 1832, although they were in the area 10 April 1827 when, in Steubenville, Samuel's father applied for United States citizenship [21]. John McCully was in Sussex, New Brunswick, in November 1828 [22], and it is possible that the entire family was in Canada for an extended period during those years. The 1830 Federal census recorded them in Warren Township, south of Steubenville [23], and apparently that is where they were living when John McCully died 19 August 1830, intestate. In October 1830 Samuel's mother, Mary (Copp) McCully, was appointed

14 administrator of his estate. William Neely and John Neely were appointed by the Court as guardians of the McCully children [24]. The Neelys were neighbors of the McCullys in Warren Township. On 31 March 1832, Mary McCully purchased a 160-acre farm in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio [25]. At the time of the purchase, she was described as “of Guernsey County;” it seems likely that, after John's death, she had moved the family to Guernsey County to be near Henry Hayward, believed to be John McCully's half-brother [26]. On 21 March 1833, Mary McCully married 2nd John McPherson, a recently widowed Methodist minister [27]. Mary lived on the McPherson land in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County [28], at first presumably taking the younger McCully children with her, and leaving the older sons (Samuel, David and Asa) at the Londonderry farm. On 3 December 1835, in Guernsey County, Ohio, Samuel married Catherine Dillon [27]. Catherine, the daughter of Christopher and Ursula (Barnett) Dillon [29], was born in Guernsey County 10 March 1817. Until ca 1839, Samuel and Catherine lived in Guernsey County, either with Samuel’s brothers or with Catherine’s parents. In 1840 they were living near Meigsville, Morgan County, Ohio [30], where Samuel had purchased 80 acres of land, which he cleared for grain farming [31]. About the same time, Samuel’s father-in-law gave him and Catherine a 50-acre “stump farm” in the same area [32]. Samuel’s brothers sold the Londonderry farm in April 1844 [33], and all the McCullys except for Samuel’s family moved to Iowa. Samuel and Catherine stayed in Morgan County several more years, but in 1848 and 1849 they sold their farm land there [31, 32], and followed the rest of the family to Henry County, Iowa. On 22 April 1848, Samuel bought 120 acres of land from his brother Asa near New London, Henry County, Iowa [34]. They farmed there until February 1852, when they sold out [35], and in March 1852, joined most of the McCully clan on a wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [36]. In October 1852, Samuel and Catherine settled an Oregon donation land claim near Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon [37]. They lived there and farmed until about 1857, then joined with William Waters and his two sons Abner Waters and John Morrison Waters and their families on a move to southern Oregon. (Abner was married to their daughter, Mary Ann McCully.) They had a herd of over 100 cattle, and intended to take them to Sonoma County, California, where William Waters’ nephew, Jordan Cox, was living with his family [38]. They planned to stay in southern Oregon only through the winter, but instead established a “milk house” on Louse Creek north of Grants Pass, and sold butter to the miners in Galice, some 12 miles west [39]. Samuel McCully and his immediate family started a hotel in Galice, while the others moved on to Kerbyville, Oregon. The mining boom in Galice ended abruptly early in the 1860s, the town was deserted, the McCully hotel failed, and Samuel moved his family to join the others at Kerbyville, where they ran a road house for three years [39, 40, 41]. Abner Waters and the others

15

bought land around Kerbyville [42] and some farming was done, but by about 1864 all had sold out and returned to the Willamette Valley, where they again settled at Harrisburg. On 11 September 1867, Catherine (Dillon) McCully died at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon, while visiting family there [43]. She was buried in the Muddy Creek Cemetery near Harrisburg [44]. After Catherine’s death, Samuel apparently left his farm and moved around between families. In August 1870, he was with his son William Asa McCully and his family in Wasco County, Oregon, where he considered himself “farm help” [45]. In June 1880 he was a farm laborer for his brother Asa McCully at Asa’s farm in Amity, Yamhill County, Oregon [46]. In January 1888, he was living with his niece Mary Louise (Love) Maxson in Harrisburg, Oregon, where he considered himself “not very well” [47]. Samuel died at the Maxson home 28 February 1890, and was buried with Catherine and his daughter Mary Ann (McCully) Waters in the Muddy Creek Cemetery [44].

Children of Samuel McCully and Catherine Dillon: 26. John Fletcher McCully born 3 November 1836 27. Mary Ann McCully born 15 February 1839 28. Delilah Frances McCully born 19 September 1841 29. William Asa McCully born 25 December 1844

12. David McCully [John3, Samuel1] was born 15 September 1814 at Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick. Until 1822, he lived with his parents on the farm that his father John McCully had purchased in 1811 [18]. About May 1822, he moved with his family from New Brunswick to Ohio, settling first on 110 acres of land near present-day Dillonvale, Jefferson County [19]. The family lived and farmed there for four years, selling the property on 16 September 1826 [20]. We can find no Ohio land records for the McCullys from September 1826 until March 1832, although they were in the area 10 April 1827 when, in Steubenville, David's father John McCully applied for United States citizenship [21]. John McCully was in Sussex, New Brunswick, in November 1828 [22], and it is possible that the entire family was in Canada for an extended period during those years. The 1830 Federal census recorded them in Warren Township, south of Steubenville [23], and apparently that is where they were living when John McCully died 19 August 1830, intestate. In October 1830 David's mother, Mary (Copp) McCully, was appointed administrator of his estate. William Neely and John Neely were appointed by the Court as guardians of the McCully children [24]. The Neelys were neighbors of the McCullys in Warren Township. On 31 March 1832, Mary McCully purchased a 160-acre farm in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio [25]. At the time of the purchase, she was described as “of Guernsey County;” it seems likely that, after John's death, she had moved the family to Guernsey County to be near Henry Hayward, believed to

16

be John McCully's half-brother [26]. On 21 March 1833, Mary McCully married 2nd John McPherson, a recently widowed Methodist minister [27]. Mary lived on the McPherson land in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County [28], at first presumably taking the younger McCully children with her, and leaving the older sons (Samuel, David and Asa) at the Londonderry farm. The oldest McCully son, Samuel, moved from Londonderry in 1839, but David and his brother Asa continued to operate the farm. On 7 May 1840, David married Mary Ann Scott [48]. Mary Ann, who was probably the daughter of William Scott and Jane McFadden [49], was born at Mt. Pleasant, Jefferson County, Ohio, on 16 October 1821 [50]. In February 1844, David's mother Mary sold the Londonderry property to David and Asa. In April 1844, David and Mary Ann, and Asa and his wife Eliza (Barnett) sold the property [33], and all the McCullys except Samuel's family moved to Iowa. No record appears to exist on how they moved from Ohio to Iowa, but the likelihood is that they traveled down the Ohio River and up the Mississippi River to Keokuk, Iowa, then overland to Burlington, Des Moines County, Iowa [51]. They apparently stayed in Burlington for a brief period, as David's daughter Mary Ann was reportedly born there 16 August 1844. That same month, they moved to Henry County, Iowa, near New London, where David and Asa bought 120 acres of land for farming [52]. Over the next several years, David and Asa bought and sold various acreages in Henry County and nearby Des Moines County [53 - 59], gradually shifting from farm acreage to town lots in New London. By the spring of 1848, they had sold most of their farmland, and both families were living in New London, where the brothers had started a mercantile business. They had the Iowa state rights to manufacture and sell Champion fanning mills [60, 61]; they reportedly were salesmen for the Seth Thomas Clock Company [60], but perhaps only in Ohio. David and Asa’s mercantile business lasted only through the winter of 1848- 1849, for in March 1849 they joined a group of citizens from Henry and Des Moines counties headed for the California gold fields. Prior to leaving, they sold several of their land holdings [62, 63, 64], probably to get cash for the overland journey or to support their families while they were gone. The wagon train, which included about 65 men and 22 or 23 wagons, split up about two-thirds of the way to California, the New London men wanting to travel faster than the others. This lead group, which included David and Asa McCully, arrived in Hangtown (now Placerville), El Dorado County, California in early August [65]. The New London men concentrated their mining activity on the Cosumnes River, and were involved in the very rich “Big Bar” gold strike. At the peak of their activity, they were said to be making $50 a day in gold, likely well above the “average” miner’s take [66, 67]. The McCully brothers reportedly had brought an excess of supplies from Henry County, and sold them for a good profit in the gold fields. When they ran out, they went to Sacramento for more supplies, which they

17 also sold out. Altogether, in three months of mining and trading, they made $5,000 apiece [67]. David, Asa, and David’s brother-in-law John L. Starkey were among those who left San Francisco 28 November 1849 on the sailing ship “Edward Everett.” It took them 51 days to reach Panama on a ship that turned out to be badly under- provisioned, and on which five people died. David and John Starkey were among several passengers and crew who wrote a 6 January 1850 letter of protest to the American Consul at Panama, asking him to take disciplinary action against the ship’s captain, Henry Smith [67, 68, 69]. (We don’t know if there was any action taken.) After crossing the Isthmus, the New London party took the steamer “Alabama” to New Orleans; traveled up the Mississippi River to St. Louis, Missouri; then took a stagecoach to Burlington, Iowa, arriving in New London in late February 1850 [67, 69]. Back in New London, David and Asa once again established their mercantile business. In 1850 and 1851 they were one of three grocery/dry goods stores in New London [70]. They also had began a once-weekly stagecoach run from New London to Iowa City via Crawfordsville, Iowa [71]. They continued to buy and sell property in the New London area [72, 73]. Their younger brother, John Wilmer McCully, his wife Jane (Mason), and David’s brother-in-law John L. Starkey left by wagon train for Oregon in the spring of 1851 [74]. The family may have planned from this point that they would follow to Oregon the next year, as John Starkey left his family behind, and gave Asa McCully power-of-attorney to sell his property and conclude his business in New London [75]. In any event, David and Asa set about selling off their property and closing down their businesses [76, 77, 78 79]. In March 1852, most of the McCully clan left by wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [36]. The wagon train officially broke up in Salem, but the McCullys and some of the other families continued south up the Willamette Valley to Harrisburg, Linn County. David and Mary Ann settled on a 320-acre donation claim just east of Harrisburg, and began farming. Asa and Hannah settled a similar claim nearby [80, 81]. The brothers established the first mercantile store in Harrisburg, which David began to build while Asa traveled by sea to New York City to buy supplies for the store [82], then went to Iowa to organize a wagon train to bring to Oregon his sister and brother-in-law, several other families, and a herd of cattle. The goods shipped west by Asa reportedly sold out within a month of their arrival in Harrisburg [83, 84], and the store continued to be successful. In the mid-1850s, most transport of goods in the Willamette Valley was accomplished by steamships. However, Corvallis (then called New Orleans) was the terminus of upstream travel on the Willamette River, because the river became shallow and narrow, with sand bars and other impediments. This meant that the McCullys had to transport their supplies between Corvallis and Harrisburg by wagon, almost 50 miles by primitive roads, which was expensive, time

18 consuming, and inconvenient. In 1855, Captain Leonard White brought a steamship to Harrisburg, showing that the river was navigable above Corvallis [85]. That same year, David McCully made arrangements with Capt. Archibald Jamieson to bring his ship “Enterprise” through to Harrisburg. When Jamieson reached Corvallis, the local merchants pressured him not to continue upriver, apparently because they thought it would threaten their status as upriver terminus for Valley commerce. Jamieson gave in to the merchants, and off-loaded the McCully supplies at Corvallis. The McCullys then approached Capt. John W. Cochran, who had the steamer “James Clinton” on the Yamhill River. Cochran agreed to establish service to Harrisburg and Eugene, if the upstream merchants would subscribe to an official steamboat line. Response was immediate, and on 12 March 1856 the “James Clinton” became the first steamboat to go beyond Harrisburg to Eugene, Oregon. This initial success led to organization of the Peoples’ Transportation Company in 1857, with full incorporation coming in 1862. Stephen Coffin was the first President, followed by David McCully in 1863, and Asa McCully in 1864 or 1865. David remained on the board of directors. The company ran at a good profit through the 1860s, but increased competition on the lower river and development of other means of commerce resulted in September 1871 in the sale of all assets to Ben Holliday and the newly-formed Willamette Transportation Company [85, 86, 87, 88, 89]. In March 1858, David moved his family from Harrisburg to Salem, Marion County, Oregon, selling his interest in the Harrisburg business to his brother Asa [50]. For the first time in their lives (except for Asa’s 1853 overland trip to and from Iowa), David and Asa were living apart from one another, but they were still closely associated in the business of the Peoples’ Transportation Company and other ventures. In 1859, David and his brother-in-law John L. Starkey bought out the grocery and dry goods business of Cohn and Fish, and in May of that year began to erect a brick store building in Salem (still known as “the Starkey block”) [50, 90]. John Starkey sold his share of the mercantile business to Wall Smith in 1860, and later David sold part of his interest (to Edwin Cooke?). This is apparently the co-partnership identified as Cooke, Smith & Company, which was dissolved on 6 November 1862 [90, 91]. For the next several years, David spent much of his time on the business of the Peoples’ Transportation Company. Then in May 1865 he, brother Asa, E. N. Cooke, and Stephen T. Church opened a large mercantile business in Salem [92]. The business reportedly thrived for a number of years, and David and Asa stayed associated with it until at least 1886 [93]. During the 1860s, David had a hand in a variety of ventures in addition to the Peoples’ Transportation Company and his mercantile store partnerships. After living in several locations in Salem, he built a home on Front Street (the house is still standing, and occupied) [94]; served on the Democratic State Committee [95]; helped organize local support for Union action in the Civil War [96]; and was one of the incorporators and President of the Oregon Iron Works in Portland [97,

19

98]. With T. McFadden Patton in 1867, David or Asa (possibly both; we haven’t found the details yet) were acting as agents for California wool buyers, who were having wool shipped from Oregon [99]. David took a break from business in the winter of 1866, when he and Mary Ann joined a sightseeing tour to the Sandwich (Hawaiian) Islands [100, 101]. Beginning about 1870, David and Asa began acquiring rangeland in Union County, Oregon, until they had approximately 1,400 acres [50]. In May 1872, David’s son-in-law John Creighton was sent to Texas to buy 2,400 head of cattle to stock the range [102]. Back in Oregon with the cattle, Creighton and David’s son Frank D. McCully managed the herds, which were kept in the Grande Ronde Valley in winter and moved to the higher ranges in the Wallowa Mountains in summer [103]. Cattle were moved back and forth between eastern Oregon and the Willamette Valley [104], from Union and Wallowa counties, and also from Grant County, Oregon [105]. As early as 1875, David was talking about selling his ranch property [106]. But in the early 1880s, David and Asa acquired considerable land around Joseph, Wallowa County, and had shifted their stock raising business there from the Grande Ronde [107]. We haven’t yet determined when David and Asa formally withdrew from livestock ranching. While the younger McCullys were managing the livestock operation, David had a number of projects going on in Salem. In 1872, he and Asa were among seven Salem citizens who guaranteed the $40,000 contractors' bond for the new Marion County courthouse [108]. In August 1874 they were incorporators and shareholders in the Alden Fruit Company, which dried fruit by a “new” process [109]. David and Asa had a meat market in Salem [110, 111], which they sold in 1876, and then opened “D & A McCully,” a grocery store [112]. Asa sold his share of the market in 1878 to David’s son-in-law, Andrew N. Gilbert [50]. In 1884, David sold out to S. C. Adams [50]. After his early activity with the Democratic State Committee, David was not strongly into politics or fraternal activities. He did serve as Salem city councilman 1874-1875 [113], and as Salem First Ward alderman in 1878 [114]. In June 1856 he joined the Masons, being listed as an “Entered Apprentice Mason” in Eugene City Lodge No. 11, A.F. & A.M. [115]. In October 1883, David and Mary Ann joined an Oregon Pioneers excursion to the eastern United States, on the Northern Pacific Railroad [50]. Five hundred people left Portland on 2 October 1883; some went through to New York, but others left the train at various locations along the way [116]. We haven't found a record of where David and Mary Ann traveled. The train passed through Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on 11 October [117], which would have been a likely spot for the McCullys to have started visiting their old homes. The travelers were expected back in Portland in early January 1884 [116]. This was apparently the first time David and Mary Ann had returned to the Midwest since leaving in 1852. David had officially retired from business by 1880, but later than that he was

20

actively involved with his son Frank D. McCully in developing the town of Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. Included in their endeavors were establishing the First Bank of Joseph, and also the Joseph water works. David retained monetary interest in both until at least 1803 [50, 113].

David McCully and brother William Hamilton "Ham" McCully

Mary Ann (Scott) McCully died in Salem 21 November 1895 [118]. David continued active, attending the annual meeting of the Oregon Pioneers Association in Portland in 1904, when he was 89 years old [119]. He died in Salem 6 December 1906 [120, 121]. Both he and Mary Ann are buried in the Salem Pioneer Cemetery.

13. Asa Alfred McCully [John3, Samuel1] was born 31 January 1818. Family tradition is that he was born at Saint John, Saint John County, New Brunswick. The family does not seem to have lived at Saint John so if he was born there, it was probably during a short stay. Until 1822, he lived with his parents on the farm that his father John McCully had purchased in 1811 [18]. About May 1822, he moved with his family from New Brunswick to Ohio, settling first on 110 acres of land near present-day Dillonvale, Jefferson County [19]. The family lived and farmed there for four years, selling the property on 16 September 1826 [20]. We can find no Ohio land records for the McCullys from September 1826 until March 1832, although they were in the area 10 April 1827 when, in Steubenville, Asa's father John McCully applied for United States citizenship [21]. John McCully was in Sussex, New Brunswick, in November 1828 [22], and it is possible that the entire family was in Canada for an extended period during those years. The 1830 Federal census recorded them in Warren Township, south of Steubenville [23], and apparently that is where they were living when John McCully died 19 August 1830, intestate. In October 1830 Asa's mother, Mary (Copp) McCully, was appointed administrator of his estate. William Neely and John Neely were appointed by the Court as guardians of the McCully children [24]. The Neelys were neighbors of the McCullys in Warren Township. On 31 March 1832, Mary McCully purchased a 160-acre farm in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio [25]. At the time of the purchase, she was described as “of Guernsey County;” it seems likely that, after John's death, she had moved the family to Guernsey County to be near Henry Hayward, believed to be John McCully's half-brother [26]. On 21 March 1833, Mary McCully married 2nd John McPherson, a recently widowed Methodist minister [27]. Mary lived on the McPherson land in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County [28], at first presumably taking the younger McCully children with her, and leaving the older sons (Samuel, David and Asa) at the Londonderry farm. The oldest McCully son, Samuel, moved from Londonderry in 1839, but Asa and his brother David continued to operate the farm. On 19 March 1840, Asa married Delilah Frances Jones [48]. Delilah, the daughter of Lewis Jones and Rebecca McPherson, and the grand-daughter of Asa’s step-father John McPherson [122], was born in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County, Ohio, on 7 September 1821. Delilah died 3 September 1841, and is buried in the Methodist Episcopal Cemetery at Sewellsville, Goshen Township, Belmont County, Ohio [123]. Asa married 2nd on 19 October 1843, Eliza Barnett [48]. Eliza, born 10 May 1824, in Belmont County, Ohio, was the daughter of Jacob Barnett Jr. and Elizabeth Grimes [124]. She was also a niece of Ursula (Barnett) Dillon, mother- in-law of Asa’s brother Samuel. In February 1844, Asa's mother Mary sold the Londonderry property to David and Asa. In April 1844, David and Mary Ann, and Asa and Eliza sold the property [33], and all the McCullys except Samuel's family moved to Iowa [125]. No record

22 appears to exist on how they moved from Ohio to Iowa, but the likelihood is that they traveled down the Ohio River and up the Mississippi River to Keokuk, Iowa, then overland to Burlington, Des Moines County, Iowa [51]. They apparently stayed in Burlington for a brief period, as David McCully's daughter Mary Ann was reportedly born there 16 August 1844. That same month, they moved to Henry County, Iowa, near New London, where David and Asa bought 120 acres of land for farming [52]. Over the next several years, David and Asa bought and sold various acreages in Henry County and nearby Des Moines County [53 - 59], gradually shifting from farm acreage to town lots in New London. By the spring of 1848, they had sold most of their farmland, and both families were living in New London, where the brothers had started a mercantile business. They had the Iowa state rights to manufacture and sell Champion fanning mills [60, 61]; they reportedly were salesmen for the Seth Thomas Clock Company [60], but perhaps only in Ohio. Asa’s 2nd wife Eliza Barnett died 31 August 1845, and was buried in the Farlow Cemetery near New London [126]. Asa married 3rd on 5 September 1848 at New London, Hannah Keziah Waters [127, 128]. Hannah, the daughter of William Waters and Rachel Cox, was born in Ashtabula County (probably at Geneva), Ohio, 25 April 1828. She moved with her parents to Warrick County, Indiana about 1837, and to Henry County, Iowa, earlier in 1848. David and Asa’s mercantile business lasted only through the winter of 1848- 1849, for in March 1849 they joined a group of citizens from Henry and Des Moines counties headed for the California gold fields. Prior to leaving, they sold several of their land holdings [62, 63, 64], probably to get cash for the overland journey or to support their families while they were gone. The wagon train, which included about 65 men and 22 or 23 wagons, split up about two-thirds of the way to California, the New London men wanting to travel faster than the others. This lead group, which included David and Asa McCully, arrived in Hangtown (now Placerville), El Dorado County, California in early August [65]. The New London men concentrated their mining activity on the Cosumnes River, and were involved in the very rich “Big Bar” gold strike. At the peak of their activity, they were said to be making $50 a day in gold, likely well above the “average” miner’s take [66, 67]. The McCully brothers reportedly had brought an excess of supplies from Henry County, and sold them for a good profit in the gold fields. When they ran out, they went to Sacramento for more supplies, which they also sold out. Altogether, in three months of mining and trading, they made $5,000 apiece [67]. David, Asa, and David’s brother-in-law John L. Starkey were among those who left San Francisco 28 November 1849 on the sailing ship “Edward Everett.” It took them 51 days to reach Panama on a ship that turned out to be badly under- provisioned, and on which five people died [64]. After crossing the Isthmus, the New London party took the steamer “Alabama” to New Orleans; traveled up the

23

Mississippi River to St. Louis, Missouri; then took a stagecoach to Burlington, Iowa, arriving in New London in late February 1850 [67, 69]. Back in New London, David and Asa once again established their mercantile business. In 1850 and 1851 they were one of three grocery/dry goods stores in New London [70]. They also had began a once-weekly stagecoach run from New London to Iowa City via Crawfordsville, Iowa [71]. They continued to buy and sell property in the New London area [72, 73]. Their younger brother, John Wilmer McCully, his wife Jane (Mason), and David’s brother-in-law John L. Starkey left by wagon train for Oregon in the spring of 1851 [74]. The family may have planned from this point that they would follow to Oregon the next year, as John Starkey left his family behind, and gave Asa McCully power-of-attorney to sell his property and conclude his business in New London [75]. In any event, David and Asa set about selling off their property and closing down their businesses [76, 77, 78 79]. In March 1852, most of the McCully clan left by wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [36]. The wagon train officially broke up in Salem, but the McCullys and some of the other families continued south up the Willamette Valley to Harrisburg, Linn County. Asa and Hannah settled on a 316-acre donation claim just east of Harrisburg, and began farming. David and Mary Ann settled a similar claim nearby [81]. The brothers established the first mercantile store in Harrisburg, which David began to build while Asa traveled by sea to New York City to buy supplies for the store [82]. After arranging for shipment of the goods to Oregon, Asa returned to Henry County, Iowa, where he purchased some 300 head of cattle, put together a wagon train of cattle drovers and a few families, and started overland for Oregon in early March 1853. The wagon train arrived in the Willamette Valley 11 August 1853 [129, 130]. Back in Oregon, Asa presumably established some of the cattle on his Harrisburg land (we have found no record of their disposition). He ran the Harrisburg store with brother David until March 1858, when David moved his family from Harrisburg to Salem, Marion County, Oregon, selling his interest in the store to Asa [50]. Probably the store continued in Asa’s hands until he moved his family to Salem in 1863, but we haven’t found confirmation of that. He reportedly started a ferry service across the Willamette River at Harrisburg in 1854 [131]. Also in 1854, he and some 50 other Willamette Valley businessmen formed the Oregon and California Company, to encourage the building of a railroad from Eugene to Oregon City (they were unsuccessful) [132, 133]. In 1862 he acquired part ownership of a grist mill near Harrisburg that had been operated for several years by his brother-in-law John M. Waters [134]. In the mid-1850s, most transport of goods in the Willamette Valley was accomplished by steamships. However, Corvallis (then called New Orleans) was the terminus of upstream travel on the Willamette River, because the river became shallow and narrow, with sand bars and other impediments. This meant

24

that the McCullys had to transport their supplies between Corvallis and Harrisburg by wagon, almost 50 miles by primitive roads, which was expensive, time consuming, and inconvenient. In 1855, Captain Leonard White brought a steamship to Harrisburg, showing that the river was navigable above Corvallis [85]. That same year, David McCully made arrangements with Capt. Archibald Jamieson to bring his ship “Enterprise” through to Harrisburg. When Jamieson reached Corvallis, the local merchants pressured him not to continue upriver, apparently because they thought it would threaten their status as upriver terminus for Valley commerce. Jamieson gave in to the merchants, and off-loaded the McCully supplies at Corvallis. The McCullys then approached Capt. John W. Cochran, who had the steamer “James Clinton” on the Yamhill River. Cochran agreed to establish service to Harrisburg and Eugene, if the upstream merchants would subscribe to an official steamboat line. Response was immediate, and on 12 March 1856 the “James Clinton” became the first steamboat to go beyond Harrisburg to Eugene, Oregon. This initial success led to organization of the Peoples’ Transportation Company in 1857, with full incorporation coming in 1862. Stephen Coffin was the first President, followed by David McCully in 1863, and Asa McCully in 1864 or 1865. Both Asa and David were on the board of directors when not in the presidential position. The company ran at a good profit through the 1860s, but increased competition on the lower river and development of other means of commerce resulted in September 1871 in the sale of all assets to Ben Holliday and the newly-formed Willamette Transportation Company [85, 86, 87, 88, 89]. Asa was much more involved in politics than was his brother David. In June 1857 he ran for the office of Linn County assessor, but lost [135]. He was elected as one of the four representatives to the Oregon Legislature from Linn County in June 1860, and was appointed to the Committee on Corporations [136, 137]. He was elected again to the Legislature in 1862 [138], but apparently was not placed on any standing committees. Also in 1862, he petitioned a U. S. congressman to be made Harrisburg postmaster, and was awarded the position [139, 140]. He held that position until resigning in April 1864 [172]. Fraternally, he was a Master Mason in 1855 and 1856 in the Eugene City (Spencer Butte) Lodge No. 11 A.F. & A. M. [115]. The Thurston Lodge No. 22 was established in November 1859, and Asa was a charter member and also on the dedication committee. It has been reported that for $60 he rented one of his buildings to the lodge as a meeting place [131]. Asa moved his family from Harrisburg to Salem, Oregon in late 1863 or early 1864, probably in response to having been elected President of the Peoples’ Transportation Company, a position he held until the company was sold in 1871. In addition to those responsibilities, in May 1865 Asa, brother David, E. N. Cooke and Stephen T. Church opened a large mercantile business in Salem [92]. The business reportedly thrived for a number of years, and David and Asa stayed

25

associated with it until at least 1886 [93]. With T. McFadden Patton in 1867, David or Asa (possibly both; we haven’t found the details yet) were acting as agents for California wool buyers, who were having wool shipped from Oregon [99]. He was president or vice-president (accounts vary) of Capitol National Bank in Salem in the 1880s [141, 142], and may have been president of the Oregon Iron Works for awhile [143]. Asa also served again in the State Legislature as a Marion County representative in 1863 [144], was elected alderman for Salem’s Third Ward in 1864 [145], and as Second Ward alderman in 1865 [114]. He was alderman in the

Asa Alfred McCully

Second Ward again in 1877 and 1878 [114]. In Fall 1869, Asa, Hannah and their family spent two months on a vacation trip to the East Coast, traveling by train to New York. As this was apparently their only extended visit to the Midwest and East, we assume they visited some of their

26

former homes in Ohio and Iowa, but we have found no itinerary [153]. Beginning about 1870, David and Asa began acquiring rangeland in Union County, Oregon, until they had approximately 1,400 acres [50]. In May 1872, David’s son-in-law John Creighton was sent to Texas to buy 2,400 head of cattle to stock the range [102]. Back in Oregon with the cattle, Creighton and David’s son Frank D. McCully managed the herds, which were kept in the Grande Ronde Valley in winter and moved to the higher ranges in the Wallowa Mountains in summer [103]. Cattle was moved back and forth between eastern Oregon and the Willamette Valley [104], including Union and Grant counties, Oregon [105]. As early as 1875, David was talking about selling his ranch property [106]. But in the early 1880s, David and Asa acquired considerable land around Joseph, Wallowa County, and had shifted their stock raising business there from the Grande Ronde [107]. We haven’t yet determined when David and Asa formally withdrew from livestock ranching. Asa apparently had little direct involvement with the eastern Oregon livestock operation. He moved to Portland, Oregon in late 1870, and purchased property there in December 1870 [146], but moved back to Salem in 1871 [147]. In 1872, Asa and David were among seven Salem citizens who guaranteed the $40,000 contractors' bond for the new Marion County courthouse [108]. In August 1874 they were incorporators and shareholders in the Alden Fruit Company, which dried fruit by a “new” process [109]. David and Asa had a meat market in Salem [110, 111], which they sold in 1876, and then opened “D & A McCully,” a grocery store [112]. Asa sold his share of the market in 1878 to David’s son-in-law Andrew N. Gilbert [50]. He then purchased a 635-acre farm in Yamhill County, Oregon, which he ran with his son John David McCully [148]. The family continued to live part- time in their family home in Salem. Asa died 12 August 1886 at the Yamhill farm, after being kicked by a horse [141, 142]. He was buried in the Pioneer Cemetery in Salem. At the time of his death, he owned the Yamhill farm with livestock and farm equipment, his home and two lots on Piety Hill in Salem, and the brick block on Commercial Street in Salem known as the “Parrish brick.” He had a paid up life insurance policy for $1,400, and other personal assets of $24,000 [149]. His will stipulated the division of property and assets between Hannah and their children [150]. Hannah McCully spent most of her life after Asa’s death living in Portland, Oregon, with the family of their daughter Mary Melissa (McCully) Croasman [151]. She died there 1 August 1905, and her body was returned to Salem for burial in the Pioneer Cemetery [152].

14. John Wilmer McCully [John3, Samuel1] was born 22 May 1821. Family tradition is that he was born at St. George, Charlotte County, New Brunswick. The family does not seem to have lived at St. George so if he was born there, it was probably during a short stay. He likely spent the first year of his life at Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick, on the farm that his father John McCully had purchased in 1811 [28]. About May 1822, he moved with his family from New Brunswick to Ohio, settling first on 110 acres of land near present-day Dillonvale, Jefferson County [19]. The family lived and farmed there for four years, selling the property on 16 September 1826 [20]. We can find no Ohio land records for the McCullys from September 1826 until March 1832, although they were in the area 10 April 1827 when, in Steubenville, John's father John McCully applied for United States citizenship [21]. The father, John McCully, was in Sussex, New Brunswick, in November 1828 [22], and it is possible that the entire family was in Canada for an extended period during those years. The 1830 Federal census recorded them in Warren Township, south of Steubenville [23], and apparently that is where they were living when John McCully died 19 August 1830, intestate. In October 1830 John's mother, Mary (Copp) McCully, was appointed administrator of his estate. William Neely and John Neely were appointed by the Court as guardians of the McCully children [24]. The Neelys were neighbors of the McCullys in Warren Township. On 31 March 1832, Mary McCully purchased a 160-acre farm in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio [25]. At the time of the purchase, she was described as “of Guernsey County;” it seems likely that, after her husband's death, she had moved the family to Guernsey County to be near Henry Hayward, believed to be John McCully's half-brother [26]. On 21 March 1833, Mary McCully married 2nd John McPherson, a recently widowed Methodist minister [27]. Mary lived on the McPherson land in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County [28], at first presumably taking the younger McCully children with her, and leaving the older sons (Samuel, David and Asa) at the Londonderry farm. We can’t account for John W. specifically during the Guernsey County years, except that he appears to have been in brother Asa’s household at the time of the

28

1840 federal census [154], and may have just worked on the farm with his brothers. Because he lived in Ohio as an “adult” for over five years, it’s possible that he received some of his medical training in Ohio, that later qualified him to be a doctor in Iowa [155]. In February 1844, John's mother Mary sold the Londonderry property to sons David and Asa. In April 1844, David and Mary Ann, and Asa and Eliza sold the property [33], and all the McCullys except Samuel's family moved to Iowa [125]. No record appears to exist on how they moved from Ohio to Iowa, but the likelihood is that they traveled down the Ohio River and up the Mississippi River to Keokuk, Iowa, then overland to Burlington, Des Moines County, Iowa [51]. They apparently stayed in Burlington for a brief period, as David McCully's daughter Mary Ann was reportedly born there 16 August 1844. That same month, they moved to Henry County, Iowa, near New London, where David and Asa bought 120 acres of land for farming [52]. John probably lived with Asa or David for awhile after they arrived in Henry County, and may have received some medical training in Henry or nearby Des Moines County. By about 1846 he was practicing as a doctor in Red Rock Township, Marion County, Iowa [156]. He was still identified as a resident of Marion County in 1848 when he married Jane Mason in New London, Henry County, Iowa [157]. Jane Mason, the daughter of Robert Mason and Mary Kirk, was born 31 March 1824 in Alloway, Kyle District, Ayrshire County, Scotland. The family, including her grandparents and other relatives, arrived in New York about 1830, apparently quickly moving on to eastern Indiana where they settled on a farm at Brownsville, Union County [158]. Jane’s grandparents, parents, and some of her siblings lived out their lives in Brownsville [159]. Jane, her brother Robert Mason and their sister Isabella Mason moved to New London, Henry County, Iowa, sometime in the 1840s. It isn’t clear why they moved (and Robert returned to Indiana before 1850 [160]). Perhaps they came in 1842 when their Union County neighbors, the Nathan Farlow family, moved to New London [161]. Robert married Nathan’s daughter Charlotte Farlow in New London 4 June 1848 [162]. Jane is given credit for being one of the first school teachers in New London [163]. John apparently didn’t practice as a physician on his return to Henry County from Marion County. The 1850 federal census showed John, Jane, and Jane’s sister Isabella Mason living next door to David McCully in New London, where John gave his occupation as “clerk” [164]. It is possible he was working in his brothers’ mercantile store, but we have found no family record of that. John and Jane may have moved to Mt. Pleasant, Henry County, for awhile, but by 1 April 1851 they had sold their property there, and were members of a wagon train headed for Oregon [165]. They left Mt. Pleasant 1 April 1851, and arrived in Oregon’s Willamette Valley about 10 September 1851 [166]. John and Jane spent that first winter in Salem, Marion County, Oregon, and Jane reportedly taught in a private school there [167, 168]. In the spring of 1852, they moved south to Jacksonville,

29

Jackson County, Oregon. In Jacksonville, John practiced (at least to some extent) as a physician [169, 170], but it seemed like other ventures must have taken up much of his time. He possibly owned a bakery [171, 170]; he had some involvement in a dairy [172]; he was one of Jacksonville’s two justices of the peace [173]; he was a representative from Jackson County to Oregon’s last territorial legislature [174]; he served in the Oregon State legislature in 1859 [175]; and he was Jacksonville postmaster from at least 30 June 1860 to 30 September 1861[176]. His real estate ventures were also significant. He held a mortgage on the Eldorado Saloon; he purchased an 8-acre parcel that he hoped to subdivide; he constructed a two- story brick building that was used as theater, convention center, meeting hall, and eventually I. O. O. F. Hall; and he constructed a two-story home for his family. His building efforts greatly overextended his finances, and in 1861 liens totaling over $7,500 were placed against his properties [177]. About 1862, John left his family in Jacksonville, and never returned. Speculation has been that his business debts drove him away, but that is probably not all the story. Jane McCully managed to save the family house and the 8-acre parcel, so the meeting hall was the only major loss [177]. John could have accomplished the same had he stayed. In any event, he left Jacksonville with his business dealings unresolved. What he did for the next several years is not clear. Tradition says he wandered in the gold camps of Idaho and/or Montana for awhile, possibly doctoring and possibly mining [167, 174]. He is also said to have attended a medical school in St. Louis, Missouri [174]. So far, we have found only one record of either endeavor. In April 1866 he was in Reynolds City, Montana Territory (near present-day Drummond, Granite County, Montana). His correspondence from there suggests he may have been at Silver City, Owyhee County, Idaho, prior to going to Montana [178]. He was employed by the Peoples’ Transportation Company as a steamboat purser on the Willamette River from at least November 1867 to March 1868 [179], possibly continuously into the late 1870s [204]. The June 1880 federal census recorded him with his brother Asa McCully in Yamhill County, Oregon. His occupation was listed as “gardener,” which might imply he was working on the McCully farm [180]. He spent his last years in Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon, where he was active in the local Masonic group. He died in Joseph 20 January 1889 after being ill less than a week. His funeral on 22 January 1889 was reported to be “one of the largest processions in the (Wallowa) County,” with 40 teams and 36 walking Masons attending the casket. He was buried in the Masonic Cemetery at Hurricane Creek near Joseph [181]. John and Jane did not divorce. When John left Jacksonville, Jane was left to rear three young children, as well as having to resolve the monetary problems resulting from John’s building activities. The brick McCully Building was sold in a Sheriff’s auction in 1862, and partially paid some of the debt. Jane managed to save the family home, as well as the 8-acre hillside tract. She wanted to subdivide the

30

tract, but only managed to sell a few lots. She supported herself and her children by operating a private school for girls, which she had begun in 1860 [171, 182]. She charged $14 a term for English instruction, $40 for piano lessons, and $5 for drawing and painting [177]. The school ran successfully until June 1867, shut down for awhile, and then re-opened with Jane and her daughter Mary Bell (“Molly”) sharing the teaching duties [182]. We have found very little specific information on the later years of her life. In the 1880 federal census, her occupation was listed as “rents houses” [183]. She wrote a poem “Pioneer’s Song,” sung to the words of “Auld Lang Syne,” for one of the Oregon Pioneers Reunions [184], and the Native Daughters of Oregon honored her by naming one of their meeting groups “Jane McCully Cabin No. 1” [185]. She went to San Diego, California, in November 1894 [186], acting as executrix for her brother James L. Mason's estate. James died in Hancock County, Indiana, 21 January 1894, leaving considerable land and monetary interests in San Diego. The record isn't clear as to how long Jane stayed in California. The principal court settlement on the estate did not come until September 1896 [187] and, because of disputes over certain real estate, law suits and countersuits were being filed at least two years after her death [188]. Jane (Mason) McCully died in Jacksonville, Jackson County, Oregon 22 June 1899, and is buried in the Pioneer Cemetery there [189].

15. Mary Jane McCully [John3, Samuel1] was born 29 December 1824, probably on the 110- acre farm near present-day Dillonvale, Smithfield Township, Jefferson County that her parents had purchased after arriving from New Brunswick, Canada, in 1822 [19]. The family lived and farmed there for four years, selling the property on 16 September 1826 [20]. We can find no Ohio land records for the McCullys from September 1826 until March 1832, although they were in the area 10 April 1827 when, in Steubenville, Mary Jane's father John McCully applied for United States citizenship [21]. The father, John McCully, was in Sussex, New Brunswick, in November 1828 [22], and it is possible that the entire family was in Canada for an extended period during those years. The 1830 Federal census recorded them in Warren Township, south of Steubenville [23], and apparently that is where they were living when John McCully died 19 August 1830, intestate. In October 1830 Mary Jane's mother, Mary (Copp) McCully, was appointed administrator of his estate. William Neely and John Neely were appointed by the Court as guardians of the McCully children [24]. The Neelys were neighbors of the McCullys in Warren Township.

31

On 31 March 1832, Mary McCully purchased a 160-acre farm in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio [25]. At the time of the purchase, she was described as “of Guernsey County;” it seems likely that, after her husband's death, she had moved the family to Guernsey County to be near Henry Hayward, believed to be John McCully's half-brother [26]. On 21 March 1833, Mary McCully married 2nd John McPherson, a recently widowed Methodist minister [27]. Mary lived on the McPherson land in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County [28], at first presumably taking the younger McCully children (including Mary Jane) with her, and leaving the older sons (Samuel, David and Asa) at the Londonderry farm In February 1844, Mary Jane's mother Mary sold the Londonderry property to sons David and Asa. In April 1844, David and Mary Ann, and Asa and Eliza sold the property [33], and all the McCullys except Samuel's family moved to Iowa [125]. No record appears to exist on how they moved from Ohio to Iowa, but the likelihood is that they traveled down the Ohio River and up the Mississippi River to Keokuk, Iowa, then overland to Burlington, Des Moines County, Iowa [51]. They apparently stayed in Burlington for a brief period, as David McCully's daughter Mary Ann was reportedly born there 16 August 1844. That same month, they moved to Henry County, Iowa, near New London, where David and Asa bought 120 acres of land for farming [52]. By the spring of 1848, most of their farmland had been sold and the families were living in New London, where the brothers had started a mercantile business. In August 1850, Mary Jane was living with her brother David McCully and his family [164]. Just before the rest of her family left for Oregon, Mary Jane married John D. Love in New London 14 March 1852. We have found little about John Love’s origins. He is said to have been born 18 August 1824 in Jackson, Madison County, Tennessee. There were several Love families in Madison County in 1830 and 1840 (heads of households named James, John and Joseph), but none that include a male child clearly of John’s age. He has been referred to in the family as John “Diller” Love, which could be John Dillard Love, which could tie him to the family line of Thomas Love and Martha Dillard, prominent in North Carolina and Tennessee in the 1700s and early 1800s [190]. The first certain record of him is for New London, Henry County, Iowa, 1 March 1850 when he sold a town lot [191]. We haven’t yet determined when he bought the property. It appears that he sold his New London lot as he was leaving for the California gold fields, as he is recorded (twice) in the 1850 federal census in the California Mother Lode area, with another New Londoner, Samuel R. Scott [192]. Both John and Samuel Scott were back in New London in March 1852, when John bought a quarter-section of land from Jane Starkey (David McCully sister-in-law), then immediately sold half of the land to Samuel Scott [193, 194]. Mary Jane and John lived on the Starkey farm land until December 1852, when they bought a lot in New London [194]. Within the next couple of months, Mary

32

Jane’s brother Asa McCully arrived from Oregon, and purchased some 300 head of cattle, put together a wagon train of cattle drovers and a few families, and started overland for Oregon in early March 1853. Mary Jane and John sold their New London lot, and went west with Asa. The wagon train arrived in the Willamette Valley 11 August 1853 [129, 130]. The Loves were able to settle a donation land claim 30 August 1853 near the McCully brothers at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon [81]. They farmed, and John was a purser (and possibly captain) on the steamboats of the Peoples’ Transportation Company [195]. They bought other land around Harrisburg, part of which was donated for a church and a railroad station [196, 197]. John did not seem to be particularly political, but did represent Linn County on the Credentials Committee at the 1860 Democratic Convention held in Eugene, Oregon [198]. John Love died in Harrisburg 7 March 1872, after a yearlong illness [199]. Some of the Love property had to be sold to cover funeral expenses and various claims against the estate, but the family was still left with about 500 acres of land [200]. Mary Jane continued to live in Harrisburg with her children, and also took in boarders. She died 21 January 1902 of paralysis and other complications [201]. Most of the remaining Love land had to be sold to cover outstanding expenses, but the estate was still solvent [202]. Both Mary Jane and John are buried in the Masonic Cemetery near Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon.

16. William Hamilton McCully [John3, Samuel1], or “Ham” as the family called him, was born 2 December 1829 in Jefferson County, Ohio -- most likely in Warren Township south of Steubenville, where the family was living at the time of the 1830 federal census [23]. Ham’s father John McCully died intestate 19 August 1830; his mother Mary (Copp) McCully was appointed administrator of John’s estate; and William Neely and John Neely were appointed by the Court as guardians of the McCully children [24]. On 31 March 1832, Mary McCully purchased a 160-acre farm in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio [25]. At the time of the purchase, she was described as “of Guernsey County;” it seems likely that, after her husband's death, she had moved the family to Guernsey County to be near Henry Hayward, believed to be John McCully's half-brother [26]. On 21 March 1833, Mary McCully

33

married 2nd John McPherson, a recently widowed Methodist minister [27]. Mary lived on the McPherson land in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County [28], at first presumably taking the younger McCully children (including Ham) with her, and leaving the older sons (Samuel, David and Asa) at the Londonderry farm In February 1844, Ham's mother Mary sold the Londonderry property to sons David and Asa. In April 1844, David and Mary Ann, and Asa and Eliza sold the property [33], and all the McCullys except Samuel's family moved to Iowa [125]. No record appears to exist on how they moved from Ohio to Iowa, but the likelihood is that they traveled down the Ohio River and up the Mississippi River to Keokuk, Iowa, then overland to Burlington, Des Moines County, Iowa [51]. They apparently stayed in Burlington for a brief period, as David McCully's daughter Mary Ann was reportedly born there 16 August 1844. That same month, they moved to Henry County, Iowa, near New London, where David and Asa bought 120 acres of land for farming [52]. By the spring of 1848, most of their farmland had been sold and the families were living in New London, where the brothers had started a mercantile business. In August 1850, Ham was living with his brother David McCully and his family [164]. In March 1852, most of the McCully clan left by wagon train for Oregon. Ham left his mark on the Oregon Trail by inscribing “W. H. McCully June 11, 1852 New London, Iowa” at Names Rock on the Sublette Cut-off in western Wyoming [203]. The wagon train arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852. It officially broke up in Salem, but the McCullys and some of the other families continued south up the Willamette Valley to Harrisburg, Linn County [36]. Ham settled on a 160 acre donation claim just east of Harrisburg, and began farming [81]. He may also have worked in the McCully store. He married 24 October 1856 Margaret Jane Cannon. Margaret, the daughter of Thomas Cannon and Jane McCoy, was born 3 May 1836 in Illinois (probably Warren County) [205]. Her family came overland to Oregon from Illinois in 1852, and settled a donation land claim in Linn County. Ham and Margaret lived at Harrisburg until about 1866. It has been reported that they lived in Independence, Marion County, for a few years, where he was “engaged in merchandising” but we haven’t been able to confirm that [206]. By 1870, they were living in Salem, Marion County, where Ham was working as a wharf agent for the Peoples’ Transportation Company, as well as being a “merchant” (business so far undetermined) [207, 208]. He was a Salem alderman in 1876 [114]. Margaret died in Salem 28 April 1877, and was buried in the Salem Pioneer Cemetery [210]. That same year, Ham moved his family to Brownsville, Linn County, Oregon, where he went into the flour milling business with John M. Waters, Asa McCully’s brother-in-law [206]. About 1883 the family moved to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon, where Ham ran the area’s first flouring mill until

34

it burned down (after 1886; date not yet determined) [206]. He returned to Brownsville, where he resided until he died there 20 January 1907, of pneumonia following a paralytic stroke [209]. He was buried with his wife Margaret at the Salem Pioneer Cemetery.

17. Marion Benson McPherson, the only child of John McPherson and Mary (Copp) McCully, was born 23 December 1835 in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County, Ohio. Family tradition is that he was burned to death while the family was clearing brush. He died 11 December 1837 and is buried in the Methodist Episcopal Cemetery at Sewellsville, Belmont County, Ohio [123].

18. William McCully [Samuel4, Samuel1] was born ca 1817 [218] in Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick. He reportedly was trained as a harness maker in New Brunswick [219]. He sailed to New South Wales, Australia 1n 1841 [218]. He came back to Canada at least once [219], but no specifics have been found.

19. George M. McCully [Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 1817 in Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick. He lived his entire life in Kings County, where he was a farmer. He received an 83-acre Crown land grant in 1845 in Studholm Parish [211], and in 1852 purchased 210 acres of his father’s farmland in Sussex [212]. The Kings County deed books include a number of land purchases and land sales by George, but we have not made a detailed study of them. On 20 June 1850, George married Elizabeth ("Betsy") Good of Studholm Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick [213]. Betsy was born ca 1824 (from her tombstone inscription), probably in Studholm Parish, Kings County. Her parents were almost certainly John Good and Hannah McLeod, although we haven’t found written verification [214]. Betsy died 15 September 1869, age 45, and is buried in the Pioneer Cemetery at Penobsquis [215]. George died 25 April 1873, age 56. He was found dead in the snow outside a house he had been visiting; the coroner concluded he had died “from exposure following excessive alcohol consumption” [216]. He is also buried at Penobsquis [215].

20. Horatio Nelson McCully [Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 1820 at Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick. He lived his entire life in the area, apparently as a farmer. We have not investigated his land transactions, but at some point he acquired at least 220 acres of land from his father Samuel McCully, which he sold back to Samuel 19 July 1852 [212]. No land was mentioned in Samuel’s will, so he likely had distributed it to his sons before his death. Horatio (or Nelson, as he was generally called) married Mary F. Morton, of Sussex, 8 March 1845 [213]. Mary, the daughter of Horatio Nelson Morton and Jane McLeod, was born in Sussex in 1823. Nelson and his family associated themselves with the Free Christian Baptists church. Mary died 1879 [215]. In the 1881 census, Nelson was recorded in the household of Elkanah and Caroline (Chittick) Hall in Cardwell Parish, Kings County, but I don’t know if he was living there, or visiting at the time of the census [217].

CHAPTER FOUR GENERATION FOUR

21. Annie Elizabeth Hurd [Catherine6, William2, Samuel1] was born 21 July 1848 at Richibucto, Kent County, New Brunswick [1]. She was living in Richibucto with her parents in 1861 [2], and with her mother and sister there in 1871 [3]. In 1871 she was also recorded in the census of Weldford Parish, Kent County, where she was teaching school [4]. On 2 December 1877, she married Gilbert Judson Lutes [5], son of Abram Lutes and Rosanna Steeves [6]. Gilbert was born perhaps 21 September 1852 in New Brunswick [7]. The couple farmed at Moncton, Westmorland County, New Brunswick at least until 1911 [1, 8, 9, 10], although in later years they were living apart, spending time in New Brunswick but also making regular trips to Alberta, Canada, to visit their children [11, 12]. On a visit to Medicine Hat, Alberta, in May 1928, Gilbert became ill. He rallied somewhat, and went on to visit other family in Drumheller, Alberta. Following further sickness, he was taken to Calgary General Hospital, where he died 16 August 1928. He was buried in the Burnside Cemetery in Drumheller, on 18 August 1928 [13]. Annie Lutes moved permanently to Alberta by 1917, living with family in Calgary, then in Medicine Hat, and later in Drumheller. After that, she lived alone for some time, cooking on farms at Cereal and Vermillion, Alberta. She returned to Drumheller 1944, lived there for awhile, then resided in a rest home in Calgary [13]. She died in hospital in Calgary 29 June 1948 [14, 15].

Children of Gilbert Lutes and Annie Hurd: 74. Newton Isaac Lutes born 26 September 1878 75. Pearl Lutes born 19 February 1882 76. Worden Allen Lutes born 4 November 1883 77. Clarence Lutes born ca 1887 78. Eddie Lutes born ca 1889 79. Geoffrey J. Lutes born 26 July 1891

22. Tamar Hurd [Catherine6, William2, Samuel1] was born 7 June 1852 in Richibucto, Kent County, New Brunswick [1]. She was living with her parents in Richibucto in 1861 [2], and with her mother and sister there in 1871 [3]. She was also recorded in 1871 in Weldford Parish, Kent County, New Brunswick, where she was teaching school [16]. By 1881, she was in Moncton, Westmorland County, New Brunswick, married to William Steeves [8], who was reportedly born 7 March 1852 [1]. They were living in Moncton at the time of the 1901 census [1], but William died within a year (7 April 1901) [25]. We have been unable to locate Tamar in the 1911 census. Tamar died 28 July 1917 at Moncton [12, 17]. She was

37

buried in the Elmwood Cemetery [18]. Apparently, the couple had no children.

23. John N. McCully [Rebecca9, William2, Samuel1] was born 6 February 1857 in Richibucto, Kent County, New Brunswick [19]. His mother was unmarried, and his father’s name is apparently unrecorded [20]. As a youth, he lived with his mother in his grandparents’ home in Richibucto [2, 19]. As an adult, he farmed in Upper Rexton in Richibucto Township, and maintained a household for his mother and her three sisters throughout their adult lives [19, 21, 22]. He died in 1928, and is buried in the Richibucto Protestant Cemetery [23]. There is no indication that he ever married. His will, made on 29 August 1928 and probated 26 September 1928, left his land and possessions in trust to four-year old John David Nelson Crossman (1924-1965), who was living with him and John Crossman's mother, Cecily Crossman, at the time of John’s death. The only other persons mentioned in his will were the estate administrators, George A. Hutchinson and Hugh M. Ferguson [20, 24].

24. George H. McCully [Samuel10, William2, Samuel1] was born 16 June 1862, at Rexton, Kent County, New Brunswick [26, 27]. Some time after 1864, he moved with his parents to Kings County, New Brunswick, living with them and farming with them at Carsonville and Havelock, then later at Mannhurst, Westmorland County [26, 27, 28, 29, 30]. He never married, and died in 1911 of typhoid fever [26]. He is buried in the Cornhill Baptist Cemetery, Kings County, New Brunswick [31].

25. William Shepherd McCully [Samuel10, William2, Samuel1] was born 26 August 1864 in Rexton, Richibucto County, New Brunswick [26, 27]. Early in his life, he dropped the “William” from his name, and called himself Shepherd Kollock McCully, or “S. K,” after his grandfather Jacob Kollock. He moved with his parents to Kings County, New Brunswick, and farmed near Carsonville. He married on 11 June 1890 Selina Victoria Burgess, daughter of Steven Burgess and Sarah Dunham [23, 32]. Selina was born in Havelock Parish 14 September 1872. On 9 March 1891, S. K. received a Provincial land grant of 97 acres near Havelock, Kings County [28], where he and his family, his parents, and his brother George H. McCully moved. They sold that farm in 1909, and all moved to a 235- acre farm at Mannhurst, Westmorland County [26]. Apparently S. K. and Selina made only one trip away from New Brunswick, to New Jersey and Massachusetts in 1933 to visit relatives [33]. Selina died 13 April 1941 [34], and S. K. in 1954 [35 ]. Both are buried in the Cornhill Baptist Cemetery, Kings County, New Brunswick [31].

26. John Fletcher McCully [Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 3 November 1836 in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio. About 1839 he moved with his parents to an 80-acre farm near Meigsville, Morgan County, Ohio [36, 37], where they lived until 1848. From there they moved to a farm near New London, Henry County, Iowa [38]. They farmed there until February 1852, when they sold out [39], and in March 1852, joined most of the McCully clan on a wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [40]. In October 1852, John’s family settled an Oregon donation land claim near Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon [41]. They lived there and farmed until about 1857, then joined with William Waters, and his two sons Abner Waters and John Morrison Waters and their families, on a move to southern Oregon. (Abner was married to John’s sister, Mary Ann McCully.) They had a herd of over 100 cattle, and intended to take them to Sonoma County, California, where William Waters’ nephew, Jordan Cox, was living with his family [42]. They planned to stay in southern Oregon just for the winter, but instead established a “milk house” on Louse Creek north of Grants Pass, and sold butter to the miners in Galice, some 12 miles west [43]. John’s family started a hotel in Galice while the Waters families moved on to Kerbyville, Josephine County. But the mining boom in the area ended, the town was deserted, the McCully hotel failed, and the family joined the others at Kerbyville, where John’s parents ran a road house for three years [43, 44, 45]. John bought and sold land around Kerbyville [46], but by about 1864 he had returned with his parents and the Waters families to the Willamette Valley, where they again settled at Harrisburg. In Harrisburg, John began working as a clerk in the mercantile store of Smith, Brasefield and Company. Hiram Smith took him on as a partner two years later, and he managed the store for the next fifteen years [47, 48]. On 5 January 1865 in Harrisburg, John married Mary Sarilda Roach, daughter of Thomas Roach and Marietta Tea. Mary was born 22 April 1848 in Henry County

39

(probably Jefferson Township), Iowa [49]. She lived with her family in Henry County until 1852, when they came overland to Oregon and settled at Harrisburg. Both John and Mary succumbed to typhoid fever in 1881, she dying 8 December 1881 and he on 17 December 1881 [50]. Both are buried in the Masonic Cemetery at Harrisburg.

27. Mary Ann McCully [Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 15 February 1839 in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio. Shortly after she was born, she moved with her parents to an 80-acre farm near Meigsville, Morgan County, Ohio [36, 37], where they lived until 1848. From there they moved to a farm near New London, Henry County, Iowa [38]. They farmed there until February 1852, when they sold out [39], and in March 1852, joined most of the McCully clan on a wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [40]. In October 1852, Mary Ann’s family settled an Oregon donation land claim near Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon [41]. On 1 March 1855 in Harrisburg, Mary Ann married Abner Walter Waters [51], whom she had known as a child in Henry County, Iowa. Abner, the son of William Waters and Rachel Cox, was born 30 November 1833 in Ashtabula County (probably in Saybrook), Ohio. He moved with his parents to Warrick County, Indiana about 1837, and on to Henry County, Iowa, in 1848. Reportedly, he attended for awhile the S. L. Howe Academy in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa [52], but by sometime in 1849 he was headed west to California. He had arrived at the eastern base of the Sierra Nevada in the spring of 1850, where he was met by his brother John Morrison Waters, who had come over the mountains from Mud Springs (later, El Dorado), El Dorado County, California [53]. They returned to Mud Springs. We cannot find a listing for Abner in the 1850 census, but he was still in (or back in) Mud Springs in November 1851, mining with his cousin William Cox [54]. He stayed in California another year, then headed north to Oregon, arriving in January 1853 [55] (We haven't been able to determine if he went north overland, or by steamship from San Francisco.) At Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon, he rejoined his brother John Morrison Waters and his sister Hannah Keziah (Waters) McCully and her family. With John, Abner operated what may have been the first brick kiln in Linn County [53, 56]. On 6 March 1855, Abner and Mary Ann settled a 160-acre donation land claim of their own at Harrisburg [55]. They lived there and farmed until about 1857, then joined with Abner's father William Waters, Mary Ann's family, and John Morrison Waters' family on a move to southern Oregon. They had a herd of over 100 cattle, and intended to take them to Sonoma County, California, where

40

Abner's cousin, Jordan Cox, was living with his family [42]. They planned to stay in southern Oregon just for the winter, but instead established a "milk house" on Louse Creek north of Grants Pass, and sold butter to the miners in Galice, some 12 miles west [43]. Samuel McCully and his immediate family started a hotel in Galice, while Mary Ann, Abner and the Waters families moved on to Kerbyville, Josephine County, Oregon [57]. Abner and Mary Ann and the others bought around Kerbyville [58] and some farming was done, but by about 1861 all had sold out and returned to the Willamette Valley, where they again settled at Harrisburg. Abner farmed, and also was involved in general merchandise and real estate. Mary Ann died 15 November 1863, and was buried in the Muddy Creek Cemetery near Harrisburg.

Abner Walter Waters

41

For the next several years, Abner served as a Captain in Company F, First Regiment of Oregon Volunteer Infantry. Also during his military service, he was commanding officer at Fort Hoskins (Benton County, Oregon), Fort Vancouver (Clark County, Washington), Fort Walla Walla (Walla Walla County, Washington), and Fort Lapwai (Nez Perce County, Idaho) [52, 59, 60]. We don't know where his and Mary Ann's three children were during this period; probably they were with relatives in Harrisburg, where Abner returned after his military service was completed. Abner married 2nd Sarah Ann McCartney in Linn County, Oregon, in 1868 [61]. Sarah was born in Warren County, Illinois, in 1842, the daughter of Henry A. and Margaret (Finney) McCartney . Sarah's family was living in Peoria, Linn County, Oregon, at the time of her marriage [62, 63]. After their marriage, Abner and his family lived in Harrisburg, where in 1870 Abner was employed as a "drover" (perhaps with his own livestock) [64]. They moved to eastern Oregon in the early 1870s, stopping awhile in Umatilla County, then living in Union County for perhaps 2-3 years, where Abner raised livestock [52, 65]. They were in Salem, Marion County, Oregon by 1875, when Abner bought the "Oregon Statesman" newspaper. His brother, William Henry Harrison Waters, was named editor. Abner retained his interest in the "Statesman" until they sold the paper to W. H. Odell in June 1877, but he was appointed U. S. Marshall in 1876 and moved his family to Portland, Oregon. When his four year term expired in 1880, he was elected as a State Senator from Multnomah County, Oregon [52, 66]. Sarah (McCartney) Waters died 5 March 1882 in Portland, and was buried at the Lone Fir Cemetery [67]. About 1884, Abner moved to Burns, Harney County, Idaho, where he practiced law. He remained in Burns until 1900 [68]. While living in Harney County, Abner married 3rd Elizabeth Westcott (Knowles) Huston 30 August 1893 [69]. Elizabeth was born in Rhode Island March 1849, daughter of Isaac Knowles and Eliza Wilson. Her marriage to Abner was her 2nd, having been divorced from George Huston [70]. Abner and Elizabeth continued to live in Harney County for another six years after their marriage, then they moved to Idaho. At the time of the 1900 Federal census, 21 June 1900, they were recorded at Shoshone, Lincoln County, Idaho, with Abner's 4-year old granddaughter Eva Fitzgerald [71]. By 1902, they were living in Weiser, Washington County, Idaho, where Abner died 20 March 1906 and was buried in the Weiser Cemetery [72]. Elizabeth was still living in Weiser in 1910 with Eva Fitzgerald [73]. She had applied for, and been granted, a widow's military pension 30 August 1908; she was dropped from the pension rolls 2 July 1911 "because of remarriage now Luckey" [59]. She had married 3rd Dr. Josiah W. Luckey, 2 July 1911, in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon [74]. The couple lived in Portland, but Elizabeth died on a visit to Burns, Oregon, 31 August 1924, possibly in part as an aftermath to injuries suffered in an auto accident two weeks earlier [75]. She is buried in the Weiser, Idaho, Cemetery, along with Abner.

28. Delilah Frances McCully [Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 19 September 1841 near Meigsville, Morgan County, Ohio. She lived on a farm there with her family until 1848 [36, 37]. From there they moved to a farm near New London, Henry County, Iowa [38]. Her family farmed there until February 1852, when they sold out [39], and in March 1852, joined most of the McCully clan on a wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [40]. In October 1852, Delilah’s family settled an Oregon donation land claim near Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon [41]. They lived there and farmed until about 1857, then joined with William Waters, and his two sons Abner Waters and John Morrison Waters and their families, on a move to southern Oregon. (Abner was married to Delilah’s sister, Mary Ann McCully.) They had a herd of over 100 cattle, and intended to take them to Sonoma County, California, where William Waters’ nephew, Jordan Cox, was living with his family [42]. They planned to stay in southern Oregon just for the winter, but instead established a “milk house” on Louse Creek north of Grants Pass, and sold butter to the miners in Galice, some 12 miles west [43]. Delilah’s family started a hotel in Galice while the Waters families moved on to Kerbyville, Josephine County. But the mining boom in the area ended, the town was deserted, the McCully hotel failed, and the family joined the others at Kerbyville, where Delilah’s parents ran a road house for three years [43, 44, 45]. Shortly after arriving in Kerbyville, on 25 October 1860 Delilah married Sidney Breeze Hendershott [76], whom she had known in Henry County, Iowa, before they moved to Oregon. Sidney, the son of David Hendershott and Catherine Benham, was born in western Illinois (probably Macoupin County) 8 January 1832 [77]. He had moved with his family to Burlington, Des Moines County, Iowa, by 1840 [78], and to New London, Henry County, Iowa, before 1847 [79]. In Iowa, Sidney farmed, perhaps working with his father in his horticultural business [46]. In March 1853 he joined Asa McCully’s wagon train to Oregon, reaching Salem, Oregon in August 1853 [80, 81]. In 1854 he moved south to Kerbyville, Josephine County, Oregon, where his brother James Hendershott had located the previous year. While there, he was elected as a Josephine County delegate to the Oregon Constitutional Convention, and was one of the 10 delegates who voted against the new state constitution on 18 September 1857 [82, 83]. He and his brother James

43

were originally drawn to the area because of mining , but it isn’t clear that either did much of it. Sidney was the jailor (some say sheriff) at Kerbyville when he married Delilah in 1860 [57]. Delilah and Sidney lived and farmed in the Kerbyville area until 1871 [84, 85], when they moved to Crescent City, Del Norte County, California. There, Sidney was foreman for Hobbs, Wall & Company, a major logging and sawmill enterprise [86, 87, 88]. Sidney died in Crescent City 2 August 1886 [89]; he was buried there in the I.O.O.F. Cemetery. After Sidney’s death, Delilah managed the Travelers Hotel in Crescent City [90]. By 1895, she and her youngest daughter Frances had moved to Los Angeles, California [91], perhaps because her daughter Matilda Sarah (Hendershott) Berg was living there with her family [91]. Los Angeles city directories show that Delilah was employed as a nurse in Los Angeles. Delilah and Frances were charter members of the Glendale, California, First Methodist Church in 1904 [86]. They were living in Burbank, Los Angeles County, California in April 1910 [92], but returned to Crescent City after Frances’ marriage to Frank J. Walton in June 1910. Delilah was living with her daughter and son-in-law in Crescent City in January 1920 [93]. She died there 31 March 1925, and is buried in the I.O.O.F. Cemetery at Crescent City [94].

29. William Asa McCully [Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 25 December 1844 near Meigsville, Morgan County, Ohio. He lived on a farm there with his family until 1848 [36, 37]. From there they moved to a farm near New London, Henry County, Iowa [38]. His family farmed there until February 1852, when they sold out [39], and in March 1852, joined most of the McCully clan on a wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [40]. In October 1852, William’s family settled an Oregon donation land claim near Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon [41]. They lived there and farmed until about 1857, then joined with William Waters, and his two sons Abner Waters and John Morrison Waters and their families, on a move to southern Oregon. (Abner was married to William’s sister, Mary Ann McCully.) They had a herd of over 100 cattle, and intended to take them to Sonoma County, California, where William Waters’ nephew, Jordan Cox, was living with his family [42]. They planned to stay in southern Oregon just for the winter, but instead established a “milk house” on Louse Creek north of Grants Pass, and sold butter to the miners in Galice, some 12

44

miles west [43]. William’s family started a hotel in Galice, while the Waters families moved on to Kerbyville, Josephine County. But the mining boom in the area ended, the town was deserted, the McCully hotel failed, and the family joined the others at Kerbyville, where William’s parents ran a road house for three years [43, 44, 45]. About 1864 he returned with his parents and the Waters families to the Willamette Valley, where they again settled at Harrisburg. During the Civil War, William enlisted in the Oregon Volunteer Infantry. He served within the state in Company F from December 1864 to July 1866 [95]. He married in Lebanon, Linn County, Oregon on 13 September 1868 to Jennie McDonald, with whom he had traveled west from Iowa in 1852 [96]. Jennie, the daughter of John Nelson McDonald and Margaret H. Blodgett, was born in New London, Henry County, Iowa, on 5 February 1847. After arriving in Oregon in August 1852, she lived with her parents in Lebanon until she married William. Within a year after their marriage, they moved to Wasco County, Oregon, where they farmed for awhile [97], then moved on to Cove, Union County [98]. There they continued to farm, and also raised livestock in conjunction with William’s uncles, David and Asa McCully. By 1885 they had moved on to the Wallowa Valley at Joseph, Wallowa County, where he died 1 September 1899 [99]. He was buried in the Prairie Creek Cemetery. Jennie continued to live in Joseph, first with some of her children, then (by 1910) by herself [100, 101, 102]. She played an active role in the woman suffrage movement, becoming the Wallowa County chairman for the Oregon State Equal Suffrage Association [103, 104]. She died at Joseph 5 April 1924, and was buried in Prairie Creek Cemetery [105].

Children of William Asa McCully and Jennie McDonald: 106. Clara McCully born 22 June 1869 107. Fred Fletcher McCully born 8 October 1870 108. Guy E. McCully born 4 November 1872 109. Lola M.

30. Joseph Henry McCully [David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 7 May 1841 in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio. He lived there on his father’s farm until 1844, when the family moved to Burlington, Des Moines, Iowa. They apparently resided briefly in Burlington, as Joseph's sister Mary Jane was born there 16 August 1844, but that same month, Joseph’s father and his uncle Asa McCully bought 120 acres of land in Henry County near New London, which they farmed. Over the next several years, David and Asa bought and sold various acreages in Henry County and nearby Des Moines County, gradually shifting from

45 farm acreage to town lots in New London. By the spring of 1848, they had sold most of their farmland and both families were living in New London, where the brothers had started a mercantile business [106]. The only specific mention of Joseph during the Iowa years was in the 1850 New London census, when he was recorded as nine years old [107]. In March 1852, most of the McCully clan left New London by wagon train for Oregon. At the Missouri River crossing between Iowa and Nebraska on 21 April 1852, Joseph was seriously injured by the mules he was leading to water. The family tried to get him to Fort Kearny, Nebraska, for possible medical treatment, but he died on 26 April 1852. He was buried by the trail [108].

31. Mary Jane McCully [David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 16 August 1844 in Burlington, Des Moines County, Iowa, where her family had just arrived from their previous home in Guernsey County, Ohio. They were in Burlington only a short while, moving that same month to a 120-acre farm near New London, Henry County, Iowa. Over the next several years, her father David and uncle Asa McCully bought and sold various acreages in Henry County and nearby Des Moines County, gradually shifting from farm acreage to town lots in New London. By the spring of 1848, they had sold most of their farmland and both families were living in New London, where the brothers had started a mercantile business [106]. In March 1852, most of the McCully clan left New London by wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [40]. The wagon train officially broke up in Salem, but the McCullys and some of the other families continued south up the Willamette Valley to Harrisburg, Linn County. Mary Jane’s family settled on a 320-acre donation claim just east of Harrisburg, and began farming. Her father and her uncle Asa established the first mercantile store in Harrisburg. The family stayed in Harrisburg until March 1858, when they moved to Salem, Marion County, Oregon [104]. On 24 December 1868, at her family’s home in Salem, Mary Jane married John Creighton [109]. John, son of James H. Crichton and Isabella Edward [110], was born near Dundee, County Angus, Scotland, 13 August 1834, where he lived until 1850 when his family emigrated to the United States, arriving in New York City 17 May 1850 on the ship Brooksby from Glasgow, Scotland [111]. By 28 August 1850, they were settled on a farm near Scipio, La Porte County, Indiana [112]. John left home by April 1858, and was a civilian employee of the U. S. Army for about six years [113]. In June 1858, he was at Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas, preparing to take a supply train 2,000 miles to Benicia, California. On this trip, he was reportedly the first person to take a wagon through Bridger's Pass over the Rocky Mountains. It took 14 days to travel 50 miles. In March 1859, he sailed with the barque Storm Bird from Benicia to Fort Vancouver, Washington, in charge of 140 government mules. He was at Fort Vancouver for two months, then in June 1859, he traveled upstream to Fort Walla Walla, Washington Territory. There he

46

was placed in charge of Lieutenant John Mullan's supply train, which would support Mullan's efforts to build a military wagon road from Fort Walla Walla to Fort Benton, Montana Territory. The task was completed, and Creighton arrived back at Fort Walla Walla in August 1870 [114]. On 11 October 1860, Creighton left Fort Walla Walla with Capt. Dent's expedition against the Snake Indians who had attacked a wagon train party on 9 September 1860. The survivors were found on the Owyhee River, reduced to eating their own dead, and were taken back to Walla Walla 6 November 1860 [115]. John Creighton apparently stayed in eastern Oregon and Idaho during the early 1860s. He was in Idaho in December 1861 - perhaps mining, as he provided information on the take of gold on the Salmon River [116]. In the spring 1864, he entered into the partnership of Crawford, Creighton and Co., for hauling freight from Umatilla, Oregon, and Walla Walla to various points in Idaho and eastern Oregon. In 1865 the business included Messrs. Slocum and Hicks, and they purchased land at Union, Union County, Oregon, as a freight depot [117]. For several years, they hauled freight between Union and Boise, Silver City, Umatilla, and other locations [118, 119, 120] In September 1868 Creighton bought out the company, and became sole owner. When the 1868 silver strike occurred at White Pine in eastern Nevada, he took his wagons there [121]. According to his obituary, he was unsuccessful in eastern Nevada "owing to the opposition of 'Nick of the Woods," and bankrupted the business [113, 122]. It isn’t clear yet how John Creighton met Mary Jane McCully, as he seems to have had no ties with western Oregon. We have found no concrete records of David and Asa McCully doing business in eastern Oregon prior to 1870. In any event, in December 1869 Mary Jane had returned with John to Union, Oregon, where they farmed, raised livestock, and managed the extensive Creighton- McCully land (approximately 1,400 acres) and cattle holdings that developed in the 1870s [123]. In May 1872, John Creighton went to Texas to buy 2,400 head of cattle to stock the range [124]. Back in Oregon with the cattle, he managed the herds, which were kept in the Grande Ronde Valley in winter and moved to the higher ranges in the Wallowa Mountains in summer [125]. Their stock was supplemented with other cattle from the Willamette Valley and from the John Day country in Grant County [126, 127, 128]. Although the seasonal moves between the Grande Ronde and the Wallowa country worked, by 1875 Creighton and others were keeping stock in the Imnaha region of the Wallowa year-long, which was causing conflict with the Nez Percé Indians who lived in the area. The Army met with some of the livestock men to try and convince them to honor the Indian territory, but the move toward full- time settlement of the Wallowa Valley continued [125]. By the early 1880s, the McCullys had acquired considerable land around present-day Joseph, in the Wallowa Valley, and had shifted their stock-raising business there from the Grande

47

Ronde [129, 130]. John and Mary Jane Creighton moved their family from Union to Joseph about 1879 [131]. John broke his leg shortly after the move, and David McCully sent his son Frank D. McCully and Al Faulkner from Salem to help with the business while Creighton was incapacitated [127, 128, 132]. John Creighton died of heart trouble in Joseph 22 December 1884 [113]. His body was taken to Salem, Oregon, where he was buried in the Pioneer Cemetery. Mary Jane moved with her daughters to Salem, where she lived with her father David McCully [133]. About 1907 (perhaps after her father died in December 1906), she moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, which is apparently where she died 27 April 1920 [134, 135]. She was buried in the Pioneer Cemetery in Salem, Oregon.

32. John William McCully [David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 22 February 1847 at New London, Henry County, Iowa, where his father David and his uncle Asa McCully were in the mercantile business. In March 1852, most of the McCully clan left New London by wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [40]. The wagon train officially broke up in Salem, but the McCullys and some of the other families continued south up the Willamette Valley to Harrisburg, Linn County. John’s family settled on a 320 acre donation claim just east of Harrisburg, and began farming. His father and his uncle Asa established the first mercantile store in Harrisburg. The family stayed in Harrisburg until March 1858, then moved to Salem, Marion County, Oregon [123]. John (usually called “Jack”) lived with his parents in Salem, and was working as a clerk (unspecified business) in June 1870 [136]. In 1872 he moved to Union County, Oregon [137]. By May 1875, Jack McCully was in the teamster business with his Union neighbors, the Hudson brothers, hauling food and other goods from the Grand Ronde Valley to the new mining communities of western Idaho [138, 139]. By August 1875, they had established the Granger Store at South Mountain, Idaho [140, 141], and soon were hauling to Silver City and other Owyhee towns, as well [142]. On 5 June 1875 in Union County, Oregon, Jack McCully married Miranda A. Hudson [143]. Miranda, the daughter of Thomas R. Hudson and Louisa A. Booth, and sister of his business partners, was born ca 1855 in Marion County (probably Silverton), Oregon, where her parents had settled a donation land claim 11 March 1855 [144]. The family moved to Union County sometime between July 1860 and July 1870 [145, 146]. Jack and Miranda had been married only a few years when

48

Miranda suffered a crippling fall. She moved with her mother to Salem, Marion County, Oregon, in June 1880, and died there 26 June 1881 [147, 148]. She is buried in the Salem Pioneer Cemetery. She and Jack had no children. Jack McCully continued to haul goods to Idaho through 1877 [149] and 1878 [150], and he was still classified as a teamster in the 1880 census [151]. However, his partnership with the Hudson brothers may have ended earlier, as they were mining near Helena, Montana in late 1878 [150]. In Union County, Oregon, on 14 May 1883, Jack McCully married 2nd Sarah Jane [Graham] Ownbey. Sarah, the daughter of Jackson Graham and Martha McKinney, was born 20 November 1858 at Floris, Daviss County, Iowa, where her father farmed. They moved from Iowa to Missouri ca 1861, to Idaho Territory ca 1864, and to Walla Walla County, Washington Territory ca 1865. By 1875 the family had moved to Union County, Oregon, where on 30 May 1875, Sarah Jane Graham married James A. Ownbey [152, 153, 154, 155]. James A. Ownbey, the son of William Ownbey and Martha Jane [Langston] Henderson, was born 30 November 1854 near Corvallis, Benton County, Oregon, where his father farmed. Some time after June 1870, he moved with his family to Indian Valley, Union County, Oregon, where Sarah’s family was living. We know nothing else about him except that he died in Union County in 1880 (1 February?), of consumption, and was buried in Highland Cemetery. He and Sarah had two children, only one of them living in 1880 [149, 156, 157, 158, 159]. Jack and Sarah lived in Elgin, Union County, Oregon, for several years, where Jack apparently continued to work as a teamster and day laborer. They moved to Lostine, Wallowa County, Oregon after 1893, where they farmed, then returned to Elgin in the fall 1910. He developed Bright’s Disease (a kidney malfunction), which was the apparent cause of his death 23 May 1911 while on a visit to his step- daughter Hetta [Ownbey] Compau in Lowden, Walla Walla County, Washington [137, 160, 161]. Martha lived two more years, dying at their home in Elgin, Oregon, 15 March 1913 [150]. They are both buried in the City Cemetery, Elgin.

33. Estelle Ann McCully [David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 4 July 1849 at New London, Henry County, Iowa, where her father David McCully had a mercantile store and other businesses. In March 1852, most of the McCully clan left New

49

London by wagon train for Oregon. They arrived in the Willamette Valley 15 August 1852 [40]. The wagon train officially broke up in Salem, but the McCullys and some of the other families continued south up the Willamette Valley to Harrisburg, Linn County. Estelle’s family settled on a 320 acre donation claim just east of Harrisburg, and began farming. Her father and her uncle Asa McCully established the first mercantile store in Harrisburg. The family stayed in Harrisburg until March 1858, when they moved to Salem, Marion County, Oregon [123]. Estelle lived with her parents in Salem, until 27 April 1871, when she married Andrew Nathaniel Gilbert [109]. Andrew Gilbert was born 18 March 1840 at Dudley, Grandview Township, Edgar County, Illinois, the son of James Gilbert and Margaret Hurd [162]. The Gilberts had come to Illinois from Augusta County, Virginia, a year or so before Andrew was born. James Gilbert was a shoemaker and farmer [163, 164]. Andrew farmed with his father until 15 July 1861 when he enlisted in Company E, 12th Illinois Volunteer Infantry. He served as a private and as a hospital steward until 10 July 1865, when he was discharged at Louisville, Kentucky. During his Civil War service period, he was wounded in the hand at the Battle of Pittsburgh Landing 6 April 1862, and suffered from typhoid fever 9-15 May 1862 [162, 165]. After mustering out, he traveled to Fort Benton, Montana, where he obtained a horse and rode to Salem, Oregon, via Helena, Montana, arriving in October 1866 [166]. In Salem, he first was employed as a clerk in John Wright’s grocery store [165]. By 1870, he and his brother John Gilbert had a shoe and boot store. In 1876, Andrew bought out Asa McCully’s share of Asa and David McCully’s grocery store; David later sold his half of the business to I. L. Patterson (later Governor of Oregon), and the business became Gilbert & Patterson, grocers [167]. Gilbert and Patterson later had an orchard and hop farm together [165]. Andrew Gilbert was Salem Postmaster 19 September 1889 to 16 August 1894, and was superintendent of the Oregon State Penitentiary from 4 March 1895 to 1898. He was very active in Republican Party politics, being elected to the Oregon Legislature as a representative from Marion county in 1874, 1876, 1882 and 1885. He was a delegate to various county and state conventions, and served regularly on Republican central committees. For three years beginning in 1870, he was Treasurer for the City of Salem [168]. On 12 November 1890, Estelle Gilbert and son Warren Gilbert were on a train that derailed near Salem, sending three of the eight cars off the tracks and into a marsh, killing three people. Warren Gilbert suffered a broken leg, and Estelle was seriously shaken up and (for awhile) internal injuries were suspected [169, 170]. Andrew N. Gilbert died in Salem, Oregon, 14 July 1923 of the effects of chronic myelitis (inflammation of the bone marrow or spinal cord) [171, 172]. He was buried at the Mt. Crest Abbey Mausoleum in Salem. Estelle continued to live in their Salem home, which was near that of her daughter and son-in-law, Agnes and Bernard Schucking. She lived with the Schuckings for the last three years until her

50

death 14 July 1933 [173, 174]. She is buried at the Mt. Crest Abbey Mausoleum in Salem.

34. Alfred Marion McCully [David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 9 July 1853 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon, where he lived on his parents’ donation land claim. The family stayed in Harrisburg until March 1858, when they moved to Salem, Marion County, Oregon [123]. Alfred lived with his parents in Salem, until 31 October 1874 when he married Violet Elmira Geer [175]. Violet, the daughter of Frederick W. Geer and Mary Ann Prentice, was born 25 July 1852 on the family’s donation land claim at Butteville, Clackamas (then, Yamhill) County, Oregon [176, 177]. The couple continued to live in Salem, where Alfred was employed as an engineer on steamboats on the Willamette and Columbia rivers [178]. In 1893, they moved to The Dalles, Wasco County, Oregon, where Alfred was employed as chief engineer on the steamboat Regulator [179, 180]. While living at The Dalles, they maintained their interest in the Geer donation land claim at Butteville, Clackamas County [181], and in January 1896 returned to the Willamette Valley [182]. They farmed there the rest of their lives [183, 184, 185], Violet died at Butteville 4 March 1924 [186] . Alfred continued to live on the farm until early 1926, when he was brought to Salem for medical care. He died in Salem 3 July 1926 [187]. Both are buried at the Geer family cemetery at Butteville.

Children of Alfred McCully and Violet Geer: 125. Archie D. McCully born May 1874 126. Guy Geer McCully born 31 August 1876 127. William Wade McCully born 6 September 1877

35. Frank David McCully [David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 2 June 1859 in Salem, Marion County, Oregon. He attended Salem schools, including some time at Willamette University. He worked for his father David McCully at the meat market run by father and his uncle Asa McCully, each morning bringing meat from the slaughtering area in Polk County across the river to the store in Salem [188]. When his father and uncle established a livestock business in the early 1870s, Frank accompanied cattle drives from the Willamette Valley to eastern Oregon in 1872, 1875 and 1876 [188]. When his brother-in-law John Creighton broke his leg July 1879, Frank was sent from Salem to Wallowa County, to help with the management of the McCully holdings [132]. After a year, rather than returning to the Willamette Valley, he settled at Wallowa (then, Silver) Lake, obtaining 160

51

acres of Government land [189]. He built a store on the property, which opened in October 1880 with $3,000-4,000 worth of merchandise [190]. The business, which was the first in the Wallowa Valley and apparently only the second in all of Union County, was so successful that, in 1881, Frank platted out the future town of Lake City (now, Joseph) on his property and began selling building lots [190, 191]. On 5 January 1881 at La Grande, Union County, Oregon, Frank McCully married Julia L. Hambelton [192]. Julia, the daughter of Lemuel L. Hambelton and Johanna Spear, was born ca 1861 at Jefferson, Scotland County, Missouri [193]. She moved with her family to Colorado about 1880, to eastern Oregon about 1876, and to the Wallowa Valley in 1878 [194]. For the next twenty years, Frank McCully was perhaps the most prominent businessman and politician in northeastern Oregon. He expanded his mercantile business to include stores at Flora, Lostine and Enterprise. He was the principal entity in establishment of the newspaper “Wallowa Chieftain” in 1884, the First Bank of Joseph in 1887, the Joseph Waterworks in 1889, and the Joseph electric light plant in 1900. He sold his mercantile store in Lostine to J. A. Masterson in 1890, then the store in Flora was sold to Lincoln Austin and George C. Clarke in 1902. Even as he was reducing the number of his stores, he was establishing the Joseph Milling Company and consolidating all his interests into the McCully Mercantile Company in 1905 [190, 195, 196, 197]. Frank McCully is remembered as “the father of Wallowa County,” because of his successful efforts to separate Wallowa County from Union County in 1887. Merchants and public figures in the growing communities in the Wallowa Valley felt they were too isolated from the Union County seat of government to receive fair treatment for local needs. Frank McCully declared himself a candidate for the Oregon Legislature in 1886, his main campaign promise being that he would introduce a bill to establish a new county. He won the seat and, as promised, on 12 January 1887, the third bill introduced to the new Congress was the Wallowa County bill. It passed without opposition, and was ratified 11 February 1887. Joseph was declared the interim county seat, but lost out to Enterprise, Oregon, in the next election [190]. Frank and Julia McCully divorced some time between 1900 and 1905. Julia married 2nd ca 1906 Larkin Vinson. Larkin was born in Kentucky ca 1858, and this was his first marriage. The couple lived in Grant County, Oregon, where Larkin farmed and painted houses [198, 199]. He died on 20 April 1923. Julia moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, where she lived with her daughter and son- in-law, Lelia and William H. Ballinger [200, 201]. She died at Portland 11 July 1940, with rites held at the Portland Crematorium and Mausoleum [202]. On 19 November 1908 in Portland, Oregon, Frank McCully married 2nd Martha Elizabeth (Van Vactor) Dunbar [217]. Martha, the daughter of William Wilson Van Vactor and Mary E. Wishard, was born 2 January 1875 in Albany, Linn County, Oregon. About 1880 she moved with her family to The Dalles, Wasco County,

52

Oregon, then within a year or two to Goldendale, Klickitat County, Washington, where her father and mother lived the rest of their lives [203, 204, 205]. She married first on 19 February 1893 at Goldendale, Oron Dunbar [206]. Oron, the son of Daniel S. Dunbar and Margaret Matilda Jones, was born in Multnomah County, Oregon, in February 1870 [207]. He lived with his farmer parents near Fairview, Multnomah County, until 1892, when Daniel Dunbar moved the family to Goldendale, Washington, to start a mercantile business. His parents moved back to Fairview, Oregon, in 1898, but Oron and Martha remained in Goldendale at least until November 1902 [207, 208, 209, 210, 211, 219]. They apparently moved to Portland, Oregon, in late 1902 or early 1903, as Oron was listed in the 1903 Portland city directory [220]. By October 1904, they were living in Joseph, Oregon [221]. Through 1908, Oron was making regular business trips from Joseph to Pendleton, Oregon, and to Portland [222, 223, 224]. We have not found the Dunbar divorce record, but it appears that the separation occurred about 1907. Martha had moved to Portland about that time [217, 218]. After the divorce, Oron moved from Joseph to Portland [212], then by 1910 had moved to Lakeview, Lake County, Oregon [213]. There, he was manager of the dry goods department of Lakeview Mercantile Company. On 8 January 1911 in Lakeview, he married Laura Bolton [214, 228]. Laura, daughter of Sidney B. Bolton and Mary Frances Arthur, was born in Idaho ca 1888, and had been in Lake County since at least 1900. Oron and Laura remained at Lakeview at least into 1914 [215], but by 1918 had moved to Oregon City, Clackamas County, Oregon, where Oron was head salesman for the Price Brothers company, a men's clothing store. He died there on Spanish influenza 27 October 1918 [216]. Laura was living in Portland in 1920, working as a stenographer in a doctor's office. We could not trace her after that date. As she was only 31 in 1920, it is likely she remarried. Perhaps in anticipation of his upcoming wedding, in October 1908 Frank McCully sold the F. D. McCully Company; the new owners kept the McCully name when they incorporated the McCully Mercantile Company, but Frank did not retain any interest in the business [225]. Then, Frank shipped his automobile to San Francisco, and after the wedding they planned to spend three months motoring in California and Mexico [217]. They were in San Jose, California, at the end of November 1908 [226], but we haven't found any other details of the trip. They arrived back in Oregon by 2 March 1909, when Frank attended the annual meeting in Portland of the Oregon Life Insurance Company [227]. Back in Wallowa County, although officially "retired," Frank McCully continued with a variety of business ventures. He was president of the First National Bank of Joseph until at least 1914 [229]. Although he had divested himself of his mercantile business in 1908, the F. D. McCully Company continued to operate a sawmill [230], had a flour mill in Idaho [231], ran large flocks of sheep [232], and (although being contested in court by the City of Joseph) operated the Joseph

53

Waterworks [233]. He was president of the Joseph-Elgin Stage Company until it went out of business about 1910 [234]. He and E. W. Rumble established the McCully-Rumble Land & Power Company to develop a power plant on the Wallowa River, and to bring power lines to Wallowa Valley communities [235]. He was an active promoter of tourism for the Wallowa Valley, and served as vice-president of the Wallowa Lake Wonderful Corporation when it was established in 1924 [236]. He stayed politically active in later life, serving as county commissioner of Wallowa County, being a member of various Republican committees, and serving on a number of boards. Although “well to do” on paper, most of Frank McCully's assets were tied up in mortgages and outstanding lines of credit, and the widespread depression of the mid-1920s hit him hard. Mishaps like the loss to fire of his Idaho flour mill [231] added to his financial woes. “In June 1926 Mr. McCully joined the ranks of the plebian class when his debts far exceeded his assets [130].” His 800-acre ranch was seized by the courts and auctioned off to cover some of his debts [237]. Frank McCully lived out his life at Joseph, Oregon, dying there 13 March 1939. By special permission of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and in recognition of his friendship with Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce, he was buried in the Indian cemetery at Wallowa Lake [238, 239]. After Frank’s death, Martha lived in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon [240], where she died 18 October 1947 [241]. She is buried with Frank McCully at Wallowa Lake.

36. Carrie Gertrude McCully [David12, John3, Samuel1] was born in Salem, Marion County, Oregon, on 14 June 1862, and died there 11 May 1864. She is buried in the Pioneer Cemetery in Salem.

37. Samuel Alfred McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 5 March 1841 in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio. He died 21 September 1841, and

54

was buried in the Methodist Episcopal Cemetery, Sewellsville, Belmont County, Ohio [242].

38. Sarah Catherine McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 1 October 1844 in Londonderry Township, Guernsey County, Ohio. Shortly after her birth, she moved with her parents to New London, Henry County, Iowa, but died there 30 September 1845. We have been unable to find a grave stone for her, but she is probably buried with her mother in the Farlow Cemetery, New London [243].

39. William Asa McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 19 June 1849 at New London, Henry County, Iowa. He died there 6 March 1851. He was buried in the Farlow Cemetery, New London [243].

40. Frances Ann McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 21 August 1851 and died 11 September 1851 in New London, Henry County, Iowa. We have not been able to find a grave stone for her, but she was probably buried in the Farlow Cemetery, New London [243].

41. Alice Jane McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1], twin sister of Frances Ann McCully, was born 21 August 1851 in New London, Henry County, Iowa. In March 1852, she left New London with her parents and other relatives, and crossed the plains to Oregon, arriving in August 1852 [40]. The family lived first in Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon, before moving to Salem, Marion County, Oregon in late 1863 or early 1864. The family moved again in late 1870 to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, but returned to Salem the following year. Alice Jane presumably attended public schools in Harrisburg and Salem, and graduated from St. Mary’s Academy in Portland, reportedly the only school in the Northwest at that time where a girl could study music [244]. On 8 December 1870 in Portland, she married William Bradford Crane [245, 246]. William B. Crane, son of James Harvey Crane and Sarah Theresa Bradford, was born in Newark, Essex County, New Jersey, on 26 April 1835. He lived with his family in Newark until late 1849 or early 1850 when they moved to near Morgantown, Monongalia County, Virginia (now West Virginia) [247, 248]. In 1854 they moved again to Warren, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania [248, 249]. We haven’t been able to determine what schooling William had. We assume he attended primary schools in Newark. His brother James Elbert Crane attended the “Morgantown Academy” [248] (probably the Monongalia Academy, as no record exists of a “Morgantown Academy”), and William may have attended there, also. His later occupations show a strong understanding and interest in hardware and the mechanics of mine operations, so he probably worked with his father manufacturing engine parts and constructing a steel rolling mill. In 1854 he was working for Alexander McClure who owned a timber company and had a sawmill

55

and box building company [250, 251]. William left Pennsylvania for Missouri in late 1854 [250]. He appears to have settled first at Canton, Lewis County, Missouri, where he married Mary Louisa Williams ca 1857. Mary, the daughter of Dr. James Thomas Williams and Louisa Cecil, was born in Lewis County in 1841 [252]. They lived in Canton in 1857 and 1858, where William had a wagon and carriage shop and also a mercantile store with Joseph W. Hoke [253, 254, 255]. They apparently lived for a year near Independence, Missouri, where William ran a ferry across the Missouri River [256, 257]. By July 1860 they were living in St. Louis, St. Louis County, Missouri, where William had a hardware and mercantile store [258, 259]. He was appointed manager of the Pilot Knob Iron Company (Iron County, Missouri) in November 1860, a position he held until the Civil War forced closure of the plant in early 1862 [260, 261]. As he was leaving Pilot Knob with his family to visit friends and family in Canton, Missouri, Mary became ill and died 9 February 1862. Her body was taken to Canton, where she was buried in the Forest Grove Cemetery [262]. Being deeply in debt and with few prospects for making money in War- depressed Missouri, William decided to leave his infant daughter with her maternal grandparents, and go West to the mining areas of Montana. He and his brother Lewis Crane took the steamer Emilie up the Missouri River to Fort Benton, Montana. They visited the Montana mines briefly, but the areas didn’t look promising to them, so they traveled on to Oregon, arriving in Salem in August 1862 [262, 263, 264]. William immediately found a job with the Oregon Steam Navigation Company (OSNC), working on their steamboats on the Columbia River. In the next eight years, he worked the mining camps of eastern Oregon, western Idaho, and eastern Nevada, partly on assignment from the directors of OSNC and partly on his own. With his brothers Lewis and Charles, and his uncle Charles H. Crane, he developed a farm near Boise, Ada County, Idaho, from which they supplied the mining camps with fruits and vegetables. At the time of his marriage to Alice Jane McCully, most of his time was being spent in the White Pine mining district of eastern Nevada, where he mined, ran a lumber mill, and sold life insurance to the miners [265]. For the eight years of his marriage to Alice ("Allie") McCully, Will Crane was on the road almost full-time, developing mines and selling life insurance. (As we’ve pieced together his schedule, it has become clear that, in their entire marriage, he and Allie probably lived together less than one year!) In 1871 and 1872, much of his work was in Baker County, Oregon; Allie lived for awhile in Portland, then with her parents in Salem. From 1873 through 1877, he spent much of his time at Virginia City, Storey County, Nevada; Allie lived in Oakland, California, usually with Crane relatives, while Will had a house built for them in Virginia City. They apparently moved into the new house some time in 1874, only to see it burn to the ground in the great Virginia City fire on 26 October 1875 [266, 267]. Allie lived part-time at Virginia City after that, but also in Oakland or with her parents.

William Bradford Crane

By early 1878 they had a house of their own in Oakland, but Will was mostly away, superintending the Extra Mining Company, and overseeing the development of the Bully Hill copper mine at Copper City, Shasta County, California. He was at Copper City in February 1879 when he became ill. He returned to Oakland, then in April decided to make a trip to Oregon to visit with Allie’s family. He died 20 April 1879 at the McCully home in Salem. He was buried in the Pioneer Cemetery in Salem [268].

57

After Will Crane’s death, Allie brought her children to Oregon, living for awhile with her family in Salem, then with her daughter, Ethel Linnie (Crane) Dabney and family in Portland. On trips to Massachusetts to visit with her son and daughter-in- law, Clarence and Stella (Howard) Crane, she met Stella’s parents, Daniel and Georgianna (Weatherbee) Howard. After Georgianna died, Allie and Daniel married 9 April 1903 [269]. She returned to Oregon to settle her affairs, but found her children there adamant against the marriage. She divorced without returning to Massachusetts. Allie continued to live with the Dabneys, in Portland until 1926, then in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles County, California. She died in Beverly Hills 8 December 1932. Her body was returned to Oregon, where she was buried in the Salem Pioneer Cemetery [244].

42. Mary Melissa McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 19 May 1854 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. “Linnie,” as she was called, moved with her family to Salem, Marion County, Oregon in late 1863 or early 1864. The family moved again in late 1870 to Portland, Oregon, but moved back to Salem the following year. Linnie probably went to Salem schools, but we have found no specific records. On 8 November 1877 in Salem, she married Allen B. Croasman [270]. Allen, son of James Croasman and Lovina Brinkley, was born 7 June 1846 at Burnside, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, where his father was a farmer [271]. About 1854 the family moved west to Warren, Trumbull County, Ohio, where Allen’s mother died about 1856 [272]. By June 1860, James Croasman had re-married, and the family had moved 25 miles east to Greenville, Mercer County, Pennsylvania [273]. Allen attended school at Greenville, then soon left home and worked a variety of jobs in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin: carried mail between Oil City and Franklin, Pennsylvania; was a newsboy aboard the Milwaukee and Mississippi Railroad between Milwaukie and Prairie de Chien, Wisconsin; and later was an express check agent on the same line [272, 474]. Allen rejoined his father (who had become a clergyman), and in 1864 they sailed from New York City via Panama to Oregon, arriving in Salem in June, where James Croasman was to establish a new church. Allen was hired on at the grocery store

58 of Charles Uzafovage and John C. Wright, where he worked a year until a fire destroyed the store and a number of other buildings. Allen had lived above the store, and lost all his belongings in the fire. He then worked for Heath, Dearborn and Company, the largest dry goods store in Salem. When they sold to Morgan, Scott and Company ca 1867, Allen was kept on as assistant bookkeeper. He took a job as a bookkeeper at the Oregon Woolen Mills in Oregon City, but missed Salem and returned to his former job with Morgan, Scott and Company. When they went out of business, he became chief clerk and bookkeeper for Breyman, Bowen and Cranston. In April 1870 Allen Croasman, in partnership with J. J. Murphy, established a men’s clothing store in Salem. They were in business together 11 years, then Croasman bought out Murphy. In 1877 he sold the store to his brother-in-law John D. McCully [275]. In addition to his business endeavors, Allen Croasman served as Salem Postmaster 1883-1885, was Chief of the Salem Fire Department for two years, and was on the Salem City Council for one term [274]. On 8 November 1877 in Salem, Allen and Linnie married. They remained in Salem until 1887, they moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, where Allen established another men’s clothing store. The store did well until “the panic of 1893,” when demand for high-class fashions declined drastically. Allen found himself in debt, and the store was forced to close, He was appointed Portland Postmaster 10 May 1898, which after the store closure became his sole employment. He served in that position until March 1903 [274, 275]. After the Postmaster job, he opened a brokerage house in Portland, and dealt with timberlands, mining properties, stocks, bonds and investments into the 1920s [276, 277]. Linnie [McCully] Croasman died in Portland 18 July 1925. She was probably entombed at the Portland Mausoleum [278, 279]. Allen continued to live in Portland, in later years with the family of his daughter Alice [Croasman] Dustin. In December 1930 he was appointed bailiff and official court crier for District Judges Bean and McNary, a position he held until shortly before his death 3 September 1935 [272, 280, 281]. The Portland Crematorium and Mausoleum handled his remains.

43. John David McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 2 February 1856 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. “J. D.,” as family and friends called him, attended school briefly in Harrisburg before moving to Salem, Marion County,

59

Oregon in late 1863 or early 1864. In 1864 he attended the Oregon Institute, and in 1865 the Central School. He was only 12 years old when he enrolled at Willamette University in 1867 [282, 283]. He attended there until late 1870, when he moved with his family to Portland, Oregon [284]. In Portland, he attended the Portland Academy and Female Seminary, but presumably his father’s job responsibilities brought the family back to Salem in 1871 [285]. There, J. D. re- enrolled at Willamette University, finishing in 1874. Following graduation, he went to San Francisco in 1875, and enrolled for a year at Heald’s Business College. He returned to Salem, where he served as bookkeeper and delivery man for the McCully meat market [282]. In 1878 J. D’s father Asa McCully purchased a 635-acre farm in Yamhill County, Oregon. The following year, he invested J. D. with a half-interest in the property, which they ran together [286]. On 2 July 1880 in Salem, J. D. married Lillian Estelle Patton [287, 288]. Lillian Patton, the daughter of Thomas McFadden Patton and Frances Mary Cooke, was born 31 May 1858 at or near Salem [289]. She had lived in the area all her life. At the time of their marriage, J. D. moved back to Salem from the Yamhill farm, and was appointed Assistant Postmaster for Salem. He held the job only a short time [290], the couple moved back to the Yamhill farm briefly, but then in November 1881 moved to Joseph, Union (now, Wallowa) County, Oregon. They sold J. D’s interest in the Yamhill farm back to his father [286], and J. D. joined his cousin Frank David McCully in the operation of the several McCully mercantile stores in Union County [282]. He also served as Joseph postmaster from 8 February 1882 to 23 July 1883 [291]. In late 1884, J. D., Lillian and daughter Eula returned to Salem, where J. D. was employed in the men’s clothing store operated by J. J. Murphy and J. D.’s brother- in-law, Allen B. Croasman. He bought Croasman’s interest in the store in February 1886, and ran the business until 1889 [282, 292], but then returned to Joseph and once again went into partnership with his cousin Frank D. McCully. In addition to the mercantile business, he was cashier for the First Bank of Joseph 1890 to 1896, and often substituted for his replacement cashier in subsequent years [293]. J. D. served on the Joseph school board every year, and the family was very active in local church and social affairs [294]. The McCullys left Joseph in 1907. They purchased a ranch near Hood River, Hood River County, Oregon, where they raised fruit and lived until 1929 [296]. In 1925, J. D. acted as receiver for the bank in Condon, Gilliam County, Oregon, and apparently resided there for awhile [297]. Lillian died at Hood River 28 December 1929. She had been ill for several years, but the immediate cause of her death was a heart attack, apparently brought on by the shock of hearing that her brother, E. Cook Patton, had died of a heart attack [298, 299]. After Lillian’s death, J. D. and daughter Eula McCully moved back to Salem, Oregon. He died there 15 December 1941 of a heart attack [300, 301]. Both J. D.

60

and Lillian are buried in the Salem Pioneer Cemetery.

44. Thomas J. D. McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 12 December 1857 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. He was developmentally disabled in some way (family records not specific), and spent part of his life at a special school at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was with his parents in Salem, Marion County, Oregon in 1870, but then returned to Pennsylvania, where he died 31 March 1877 [302, 303].

45. Nettie Ellen McCully4 [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 19 December 1859 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. She died there 17 February 1860 of “lung fever,” and was buried in the Muddy Creek (Harris) Cemetery near Harrisburg [304, 305].

46. Minnie Etta Belle McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 27 November 1860 in Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. She died there 1 June 1862. She is buried in the Muddy Creek (Harris) Cemetery near Harrisburg [306].

47. Abe Lincoln McCully [Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 22 March 1865 in Salem, Marion County, Oregon. He attended Salem schools [307], and lived with his parents in Salem and at their farm in Yamhill County, Oregon. The family was considered “high society” in Salem, and Abe frequently hosted and attended fashionable parties and dances [308]. Members of the Dearborn family were often in attendance at these gatherings, including Eliza Hunt (“Ella”) Dearborn. She and Abe were married in Salem 17 May 1892. Eliza, the daughter of Richard Harold Dearborn and Helen Azubah Flint, was born in Salem 3 October 1866, shortly after her family had moved to Salem from Eugene, Oregon. Within six months of their marriage she and Abe moved to Portland, where they lived out their lives. Abe worked for the Postal Service, and also was a mail handler for the railroad. He retired from the railway service about 1930 [309, 310]. Beginning about 1930, they were living with their daughter, Sara (McCully) Redfield, and her family. Abe McCully died in a rest home in Oregon City, Clackamas County, Oregon, on 12 December 1945 [311], possibly from the effects of Alzheimer’s disease. Ella also died in a rest home after an extended stay, 16 April 1956 in Portland [312, 313]. They are both buried in the McCully plot at the Salem Pioneer Cemetery.

48. James Cluggage McCully [John14, John3, Samuel1] was born 27 August 1853 at Jacksonville, Jackson County, Oregon. He is often identified as the first white child born in Jacksonville, and possibly in all southern Oregon, although some say Walter Gore was born nine months earlier [314, 315]. He attended Jacksonville public schools, graduating from Jacksonville High School, then went on to Willamette University [316]. He owned and herded sheep in the Siskiyou Mountains after graduation [317, 318]. He also worked as a miner. In 1881, he was a member of the party of William M. Turner, deputy U. S. Surveyor, as they mapped eight townships in the Sprague River area of central Oregon [319, 320]. In 1882 and 1883, he was wagon master for the group surveying a route for a railroad line through Cow Creek Canyon north of Grants Pass, Oregon [321, 322]. Beginning in 1899, he was employed as a federal forest ranger and game warden, on what was then called the Cascade Forest Reserve (now, Rogue River National Forest). His work area was around Fort , Klamath County, Oregon [323, 324]. In August 1903 he was found unconscious in his cabin on the forest, a victim of appendicitis. He was brought to a hotel in Fort Klamath, Oregon, where his sister Issie McCully tried to nurse him back to health. He died 24 August 1903, his body was brought back to Jacksonville, and he was buried in the Jacksonville Cemetery [314]. He never married.

49. Mary Bell McCully [John14, John3, Samuel1] was born 7 February 1857 at Jacksonville, Jackson County, Oregon. Mollie (as she was called) attended Jacksonville schools, then Willamette University. After graduation, she returned to Jacksonville and assisted her mother Jane [Mason] McCully teaching school [315]. On 19 July 1877, in Jacksonville, she married John W. Merritt [325]. John Merritt, the son of Ebenezer Merritt and Eliza Hiller, was born 30 October 1846 at Brewerton, Onondaga County, New York. He attended public schools at Oswego, New York, State Normal and Training School of Oswego, New York, and the University of Syracuse [326]. Following graduation, he was hired as principal of the Jacksonville, Oregon, public school, and arrived there in August 1875 [327]. He held that position until May 1884 [328], teaching classes as well as tutoring individual students [329, 330]. Although his school assignments took much of his time, John Merritt had other interests. Mining was a major activity in Jackson and Josephine counties, and he was secretary and a member of the board of directors of the Galice Creek Mill and Mining Company [331]. By 1883, he was actively seeking business opportunities outside education, and in November he purchased two establishments in Jacksonville, the City Drug Store [332] and the general merchandise store of S. S. Aiken [333]. After the school year ended in 1884, he turned to business full- time. Mollie Merritt died 17 January 1884 in Jacksonville. The mortuary report listed

62

cause of death as a "congestive chill" [334]. She had given birth to a son only 12 days before her death [335]; the child lived [336], but the death may have been related to the childbirth. She was buried in the Jacksonville Cemetery. After Mollie's death, John Merritt remained in business in Jacksonville. He entered into partnership with Will Jackson to manage the Jacksonville newspaper, the Oregon Sentinel, and continued to operate the City Drug Store and the J. W. Merritt Cash Store (as he had named the Aiken business). His brother, A. R. Merritt, had come west from New York State in 1884 to manager the Cash Store, and stayed until 1886 [337]. In early 1888, the Oregon Sentinel partnership was dissolved [338], and he sold his interest in the City Drug Store to his business partner, Dr. J. W. Robinson [339]. The Cash Store continued to advertise until at least March 1888, when presumably it was sold. About that time, he relocated to Central Point, Jackson County, Oregon, where he started a similar mercantile business [339]. In December 1891 he married 2nd Genevieve Elizabeth Moore. “Jennie," the daughter of William Moore and Rebecca McFarland, was born in September 1868 at Clinton, Henry County, Missouri [340, 341]. She came to Jacksonville with her parents in December 1875 [342]. She was educated in Jacksonville schools, and taught school in Sams Valley, Jackson County, for several years [343]. John continued to operate his mercantile business in Central Point until 1916. He served in the Oregon State Legislature in 1890 and 1892, and was Mayor of Central Point from 1896 to 1904. He had various mining interests in Jackson and Josephine counties, and owned some 2,500 acres of land on which he grew fruit trees and raised sheep [339]. That he was successful is shown in his being listed among the richer people in Jackson County, those who paid more than $2,000 in taxes in 1902; John paid $9,485 [344]. In 1916 the Merritts moved to Gold Hill, Jackson County, Oregon, where John died 15 June 1921 [345]. He is buried in the Jacksonville Pioneer Cemetery. Jennie had moved to Medford, Jackson County, Oregon by 1930, where she was living alone [346]. She died in Medford 17 October 1936 [343, 345], and was buried in the Jacksonville Pioneer Cemetery.

50. Isadora McCully [John14, John3, Samuel1] was born 16 December 1859 in Jacksonville, Jackson County, Oregon. “Issie” lived most of her life in Jacksonville. She started at Willamette University, but contracted diphtheria and had to return

63 home [328]. She never married, but took in boarders and made a home for her nephew George Hiller Merritt most of his life until her death. She was still living in Jacksonville in May 1940 [347]. She died 27 December 1944 at the Oregon State Hospital, Salem, Marion County, Oregon, of “senile psychosis, with deterioration” [348]. She is buried in the Jacksonville Pioneer Cemetery.

51. Mary Louisa Love [Mary Jane15, John3, Samuel1] was born 5 October 1853 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. “Lou” Love, as she was generally known, lived her entire life at Harrisburg, where she had a dress-making shop and farmed with her husband, Charles Edward Maxson [349]. Charles Maxson was born 22 March 1850 at Waupun, Fond Du Lac County, Wisconsin, the son of Charles S. Maxson and Augusta F. Paine [350, 351]. He left home before 1870, and on 11 November 1875 married Elizabeth Brown, in Howard County, Iowa [352]. Elizabeth, the daughter of Charles Brown and Mary Ann Brown, was born at Acquacknock, Passaic County, New Jersey, in February 1858, and moved with her family to Cresco, Howard County, Iowa before June 1870 [353, 354, 355]. After their marriage, Charles and Elizabeth were in Stephensville, Erath County, Texas [356] but by June 1880 Charles was working as a carpenter in Fairfield, Solano County, California [357], and Elizabeth and their son were in Klickitat County, Washington, with the family of Elizabeth’s sister, Mary (Brown) Owen [358]. They divorced shortly after that (no record found). Elizabeth married 2nd about 1892, Walter Winfield Ayer. She was living in Seattle, King County, Washington in 1900 [353]. We found neither of the Ayers in the 1910 census, but in October 1911, Walter was seeking a divorce, on the grounds that Elizabeth had deserted him [456]. Elizabeth apparently married a third time, as she identified herself in 1921 as Elizabeth McMillan (or similar name; writing not legible), when she appeared before a notary in San Francisco [356]. Charles Maxson apparently met Lou Love in Harrisburg, Oregon, while there on a bridge building project [357]. They married in Harrisburg on 16 May 1883, at which time Charles was identified as a resident of Spokane Falls, Washington Territory [358]. Charles took over the operation of the Love farm at Harrisburg, and the couple lived there the rest of their lives. Mary Louise (Love) Maxson died 14 April 1918, and Charles Maxson died 4 May 1921 [359, 360]. Both are buried in the Workman Cemetery at Harrisburg.

52. Emma Frances Love [Mary Jane15, John3, Samuel1] was born 11 January 1856 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. She lived her entire life there [361], attending Harrisburg schools, doing charitable work, and helping her mother with the Love household. Later, she took in boarders and provided living space for a variety of relatives. She died in Harrisburg 27 October 1923, of a stroke following a long period of illness [362, 363]. She was buried in the Masonic Cemetery at Harrisburg.

53. John D. Love Jr. [Mary Jane15, John3, Samuel1] was born 5 December 1857 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. He lived his life at Harrisburg, attending local schools. This is apparently the John Love who was declared insane in 1876, and committed to the East Portland asylum [364]. We have been unable to discover any details. In 1880, he was living with his mother and siblings in Harrisburg. He died 4 December 1886, the cause so far undetermined. He is buried in the Masonic Cemetery at Harrisburg.

54. Alice Jane Love [Mary Jane15, John3, Samuel1] was born 29 December 1859 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. She lived with her parents and siblings in Harrisburg, attended local schools until age 16, then helped her mother manage their boarding house [365]. In December 1898, in Linn County, she married John A. Belmont [366, 367]. John Belmont was born in Switzerland in June 1862, and reportedly immigrated to the United States in 1876 [368]. We have found no records of him before his marriage to Alice Love. The couple moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, soon after their marriage [368], where Alice kept roomers and boarders, sewed, sold books, and worked as a hairdresser [366]. By 1910 they were living apart [369], and in 1911 Alice filed for divorce, claiming neglect and failure to support her financially [366]. The divorce was still pending in 1915, when John Belmont was charged with non-support of his wife [370]. Apparently, the divorce was finalized before 1920 [371]. After the divorce, Alice continued to live in Portland, running a rooming house for nine years, and then working as a private nurse. A nursing assignment brought her back to Harrisburg about 1924, and she decided to remain there [365]. She died of pneumonia in nearby Albany, Linn County, Oregon (probably at a hospital?) on 22 December 1937 [372]. She died intestate, her entire estate being a house and lot in Harrisburg [373]. John Belmont continued to live in Portland, and died there 27 October 1942 [374]. The couple had no children.

55. Douglas Love [Mary Jane15, John3, Samuel1] was born 10 February 1861 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. He spent his entire life at Harrisburg, living with his parents and later with one or more of his siblings. He never married. He

65

worked as a bridge builder for the Southern Pacific Railway for 35 years, and also did road work for local governments [375, 376]. He died 11 January 1934 in hospital at Albany, Linn County, Oregon, of chronic nephritis (kidney disease). He was buried in the Workman Cemetery at Harrisburg [377].

56. Carrie Gertrude Love [Mary Jane15, John3, Samuel1] was born 26 July 1864 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. She lived with her family at Harrisburg until 1 September 1883, when she married William Lee Lister [51]. He was born 22 April 1862 in Albany, Linn County, Oregon, the son of William Lister and Rebecca [Daniels] Tompkins [378]. Some time before 1870, his father died, his mother remarried (another William Lister!], and the family moved from Albany to Harrisburg [379]. In 1885, Carrie and William moved to Pomeroy, Garfield County, Washington Territory, where William worked as a printer at least through 1887 [380]. By 1895, they were living in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon [381], but soon returned to Harrisburg, where Carrie died 5 August 1896 [382, 383]. She was buried in the Workman Cemetery in Harrisburg. In Portland on 27 November 1898, William Lister married 2nd Allie Waters [384]. Allie, daughter of Abner Waters and Sarah McCartney, was born in August 1871 probably in Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon, but possibly in Umatilla County, Oregon. She was with her family in eastern Oregon (Umatilla and Union counties) from around 1871 to 1875; in Salem, Marion County, Oregon, in 1875; and in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, until 1884, when the family moved to Burns, Harney County, Oregon. At some time, she returned to Portland, where she married William Lister. After their marriage, they continued to live in Portland, where William was employed as a grocer. He died there 3 June 1916 [378, 385]. He was buried in Greenwood Cemetery in Portland. They had no children. Allie (Waters) Lister remained in Portland at least until January 1920, when she had several boarders, including her step-son Charles Roth Lister, living in her home [371]. We have been unable to find records of her after that date. She is not buried in the Greenwood Cemetery with the other Listers.

Children of William Lister and Carrie Love: 151. Charles Roth Lister born 25 November 1884 152. Clare Douglas Lister born 2 October 1885

57. Frank Marion McCully [William16, John3, Samuel1] was born 2 October 1857 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. His family left Harrisburg about 1866. It has been reported that they lived in Independence, Marion County, for a few years, but we haven’t been able to confirm that [386]. By 1870 they were living in Salem, Marion County, Oregon [387]. Frank attended Salem public schools and then Willamette University, from which he graduated in 1877 with a Bachelor of

66

Science degree [388]. Before graduation, he taught in the Salem public schools for two years, and also worked for the Oregon Statesman newspaper for nine months [389]. In 1877 he went to Dayton, Columbia County, Washington Territory, where he taught in the public school for three months, then was hired as principal of Dayton schools for the next term [389, 390]. In November 1878 he bought the Columbia Chronicle newspaper, and became its editor. He sold his interest in the paper in May 1879, but continued as editor until the spring of 1881. In January 1879 he became superintendent of schools for Columbia County. In February 1879 he joined the newly organized Columbia Mounted Infantry, the first regular militia in the area [389]. While in Dayton, on 7 April 1880, he married Emma Carson, daughter of Isaac Carson and Mary Ann Eastes [397]. Emma was born at Shasta, Shasta County, California, on 23 July 1863 [391]. About 1865, she moved with her family to Steilacoom, Pierce County, Washington Territory, where in 1870 her father was County Sheriff [392]. Sometime prior to 1880, they had moved to Dayton, Columbia County, where her father was farming at least 1880 to 1883 [393, 394]. Frank continued his job as Columbia County superintendent of schools until December 1881. Then, a change in the boundaries of counties left him living outside the new limits of Columbia County, and he lost his job. In 1882, he and Emma moved to Pomeroy, Garfield County, Washington Territory, where he purchased a half-interest in the Pomeroy Republican and became its editor. He also became the school principal in Pomeroy [389]. They lived there until about 1886 [395], when they moved to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon, where Frank became editor of the Wallowa Chieftain. He also served as superintendent of Wallowa County schools from about 1889 to 1892 [130, 396]. About 1892, they moved to Ellensburg, Kittias County, Washington, where Frank was principal of the Ellensburg schools. In 1901 he was appointed Deputy Superintendent of Public Instruction for the State of Washington, and the family moved to Olympia, Thurston County, Washington. He was later (1905?) promoted to Assistant Superintendent, a position he held when he died in Olympia 12 March 1907, from complications following surgery for gall stone removal [388, 396]. He was buried in the Masonic Memorial Park, Tumwater, Thurston County, Washington. After Frank’s death, Emma continued to live in Olympia, usually with her son Merritt McCully, but recorded in the 1930 census as living alone. She died there 2 February 1944, and is buried in the Masonic cemetery at Tumwater [398].

59. Emma Belle McCully [William16, John3, Samuel1] was born 10 August 1861 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. Her family left Harrisburg about 1866. It has been reported that they lived in Independence, Marion County, for a few years, but we haven’t been able to confirm that [386]. By 1870 they were living in Salem, Marion County, Oregon [387].

Emma’s mother Margaret (Cannon) McCully died in Salem 28 April 1877. That same year, her father moved the family to Brownsville, Linn County, Oregon, where he went into the flour milling business with John M. Waters [386]. In Brownsville, she met James Nelson Coshow, who she married 5 November 1882 [51]. James Coshow, the son of Oliver Perin Coshow and Sarah Elizabeth Cochran, was born near Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon, 29 September 1859. Within a few years, the family had moved to Brownsville, where James grew up and attended school. He was employed as a farm laborer prior to his marriage to Emma. They lived in Brownsville until about 1883, when they moved with Emma’s family to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon, and James worked with Emma’s father William H. McCully operating the area’s first flour mill. The mill burned some time after 1886 [386], and by ca 1892 they had returned to Brownsville, where they lived out the rest of their lives. Brownsville censuses in 1900, 1910, 1920 and 1930 show James variously employed as druggist, lumber yard manager, and farmer. James Coshow died in Brownsville 14 December 1933 after a long illness [400]. Emma followed 19 March 1938 [401]. Both were buried in the Brownsville Pioneer Cemetery.

Children of James Coshow and Emma McCully: 156. Vera Myrle Coshow born 16 May 1884 157. Owen William Coshow born 13 December 1886 158. Fayne M. Coshow born 6 December 1891 159. Robert Delos Coshow born 23 September 1894 160. Unidentified Coshow born ca 1896 161. Margaret Coshow born 10 June 1899 162. Coshow twin daughter to Margaret born 10 June 1899

60. Elsie M. McCully [William16, John3, Samuel1] was born ca 1 October 1864 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon [402]. Her family left Harrisburg about 1866. It has been reported that they lived in Independence, Marion County, for a few years, but we haven’t been able to confirm that [386]. By 1870 they were living in Salem, Marion County, Oregon [387]. Elsie’s mother Margaret (Cannon) McCully died in Salem 28 April 1877. That same year, her father moved the family to Brownsville, Linn County, Oregon, where he went into the flour milling business with John M. Waters [386]. About 1883 the family moved to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon, where her father ran the area’s first flouring mill [386]. It was while living at Joseph that Elsie died 17 January 1886 [402]. We haven’t been able to determine the cause of death, or her burial location.

61. William O. McCully [William16, John3, Samuel1] was born about December 1867, probably in Salem, Marion County, Oregon. He was alive in Salem in June 1870 [403]. Apparently he died young, but we can find no further records of him.

62. John Good McCully [George19, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 23 July 1852 at Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick. He died 3 April 1853, and is buried in the Pioneer Cemetery at Penobsquis [404].

63. George Marshall McCully [George19, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born in 1855 at Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick. He apparently lived his entire life in the area. We can find no evidence that he ever married. In 1881 he was working as a farm laborer for George Good in Studholm Parish, Kings County [405]. He died 18 June 1887 [406], and is buried in the Pioneer Cemetery at Penobsquis [404].

64. Sarah McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born ca 1846 in Kings County, New Brunswick. In August 1860, when her grandfather Samuel McCully’s will was probated, she inherited one sofa, one bureau, two hard wood tables, one dozen chairs, and two beds and bedding [407]. In 1881, she was living at home in Havelock Parish, Kings County [29]. We have found no records of her after that date.

65. Albert John McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 2 July 1847 in Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick [408]. In August 1860 his grandfather Samuel McCully’s will gave him all Samuel’s livestock (8 cows, 20 sheep, 2 horses) and all his personal property [407]. He apparently farmed and worked with horses for awhile in Kings County, but by 1869 he had moved to Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts, where on 3 March 1870 he married Mary Elizabeth (“Lizzie”) Felton [409]. Mary, the daughter of Francis and Sarah E. (Churchill) Felton, was born in Salem 9 June 1848 [410]. Albert and Mary lived in Salem until ca 1874, with Albert earning their living as a currier. Albert moved his family back to Kings County, New Brunswick, perhaps to take over the operation of his father’s farm [411]. They stayed in Kings County until 1883, when they once again moved to Salem, Massachusetts [412]. They lived at several locations in Salem over the next 25 years, with Albert variously employed as currier and janitor [413, 414]. Albert was naturalized 16 October 1889 [408]. In 1908, Albert reportedly returned to New Brunswick [414]. He was not enumerated in the 1910 Salem census, and does not appear in any Massachusetts city directories until after 1920. His name does not appear in the 1911 Canadian census, but does show up in the 1921 census, so it is unclear where he was during some of those years. Mary may have been with him part of the time, but she was in Salem with their children in 1910 [415], and is listed (as "Mrs. Mary E. McCully") in 1914 to 1920 Salem city directories. Reportedly, she died by 1920 [416], but we haven't found a specific death date or burial location. Albert was back in Salem from at least 1924 until 1929 [417]. He reportedly died at Salem 2 February 1929 [418], although we have found no details of that. We haven't determined where either Albert or Mary were buried.

Children of Albert McCully and Mary Elizabeth Felton: 163. Albert F. McCully born 20 May 1870 164. Francis Fred McCully born 28 November 1871 165. Melbourne B. McCully born January 1877 166. William Albert McCully born February 1879 167. Mary C. McCully born August 1884 168. Alice Irene McCully born 10 February 1891

66. Mary Jane McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born ca 1849 in Kings County, New Brunswick [419]. She lived with her parents until 16 November 1872 when, in Moncton, Westmorland County, she married Sanford Boyce Steeves . Sanford, son (probably) of Abel Steeves and Leah Steeves, was born 2 June 1845, probably in Coverdale, Albert County. The couple lived at Coverdale until ca 1881, when they moved to Moncton, Westmorland County, New Brunswick. They lived there, and farmed, until 1889, when they moved to Fargo, Cass County, North Dakota. They lived at Fargo the rest of their lives, Sanford dying there 6 August 1937, and Mary Jane in 1939 [420]. Both are buried in the Riverside Cemetery, Fargo.

Children of Sanford Steeves and Mary Jane McCully: 169. Janice A. Steeves born September 1879 170. Leonard Thomas Steeves born 20 December 1880 171. Mae Estelle Steeves born 19 May 1883 172. Winnifred Myrtle Steeves born 10 May 1885 173. Fred Willard Steeves born 28 April 1887

67. Horatio Nelson McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born in 1851 or 1852 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick [421]. He was in his parents' household until some time in 1871 [422], but was in Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, later in 1871 [423]. We have been unable to account for him during the 1870s, and it is possible he returned to New Brunswick with his brother Albert McCully and family. If so, he returned to Massachusetts before Albert, as he was naturalized 3 October 1879 [424]. By 1882, Horatio was living in Peabody, Essex County, Massachusetts, employed as a currier [425]. He was accepted as a member of the Masons, Jordan Lodge, A. F. & A. M., on 29 October 1884 [426]. In 1885 he was an active participant in the local "roller polo" league (a polo-like game played on roller skates), and was president of the Massachusetts Polo League [427, 428]. He leased the Willows Skating Rink in Salem, Massachusetts, for the summer, for playing roller polo and for local entertainment [429]. He arranged a midsummer carnival at the rink in July 1885 [430]. Horatio disappeared from the Massachusetts record after 1885, and the only

72 definite information we have on him later is his resignation from the local chapter of the Masons on 23 May 1888 [426]. We haven't discovered where or when he died, but he was almost certainly the H. N. McCully from Jacksonville, Florida, who "mysteriously disappeared" from a Chicago hotel in 1893 [431].

68. Julia E. McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 7 April 1853 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick. On 6 March 1878, a marriage license was issued in Kings County for her and Charles Henry Gailey Jr., of Studholm Parish [432]. Charles was born 14 November 1840 in Kings County, the son of Charles Gailey born in County Donegal, Ireland, ca 1794 [404], and Catherine ____. The family apparently lived and farmed at Millstream, Kings County, their entire married life [405, 433, 434], with Charles dying there in 1909 [404]. Julia continued to live in Studholm Parish until at least 1921 [435]. In 1926, she was reportedly living in Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts [436], perhaps with her daughter, Agnes (Gailey) Cameron. By 1930, she was living with another daughter, Annetta (Gailey) Hunter, in Portland, Cumberland County, Maine [437]. She died 28 December 1936, in hospital in Portland, Cumberland County, Maine. Julia and husband Charles Gailey are both buried in the Queensville Cemetery, Studholm Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick [404]

Annetta (“Nettie”) Gailey born 24 July 1886 178. George Hartley Gailey born 18 April 1888 179. Jennie A. Gailey born 11 May 1892

69. William Mortimer McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 11 February 1855 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick [438]. His early life was apparently spent farming with his father and (later) with his brother Albert. In 1877, Albert sold the family farm to William, and moved to Massachusetts. William continued to farm until ca 1882, then he sold out and moved to Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts [439]. In Salem, he worked variously as a currier, machinist, janitor and “driver” [440]. From about 1912 to 1922, he was living in Worcester, Worcester County, New Brunswick, boarding at the Odd Fellows' Home and farming there [441]. He had returned to Salem by 1924, and died there 23 May 1926 [442]. His body was subsequently returned to New Brunswick, where he was buried in the Pioneer Cemetery at Penobsquis, Kings County [404]. He never married.

70. Melborne McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 1856 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick, and died there 1860. He is buried in the Pioneer Cemetery at Penobsquis [404].

71. George Howard McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 5 September 1860 in Kings County, New Brunswick. He married 1st on 9 August 1894 Mary Jane Doyle [443], who was born 1869 (daughter of James Doyle and Emily McNaught) and died 24 December 1895. She is buried at the Petitcodiac United Baptist Cemetery, Petitcodiac, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [444]. George married 2nd on 29 June 1898 Minnie Wilson [443], daughter of William Wilson and Sibyl Bleakney, who was born 13 March 1867 and died 1962 [444]. The family lived at Petitcodiac, where George farmed and sold agricultural implements [445]. George died at Petitcodiac 14 March 1942, and he and Minnie are buried at the Maplewood Cemetery, Petitcodiac [444].

Children of George Howard McCully and Mary Jane Doyle: 180. George Sherman McCully born 1 July 1892 181. Flossie Jeanette McCully born 29 December 1893 182. Mary Jane McCully born 17 November 1895

Children of George Howard McCully and Minnie Wilson: 183. Clarence M. McCully born 28 March 1899 184. Lena Lunette McCully born 25 May 1900

72. Willard McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 1862 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick, and died at Penobsquis, Cardwell Parish, of a sudden illness in April 1887 [446]. He is buried in the Pioneer Cemetery at Penobsquis [404].

73. Fred Samuel McCully [Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born November 1866 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick. He probably worked as a farmer until 1886, when he moved to the United States [447]. By 1890, he was living in Clinton, Worchester County, Massachusetts, where 25 June 1890 he married Roxie B. Foss. Roxie, born December 1868 in Hancock County, Maine, was the daughter of Orestes B. Foss and Adelia M. Crabtree [448]. Fred was naturalized in Clinton 17 October 1891 [449]. The couple lived in Clinton until 1895, where Fred worked as a clerk for G. W. Goodwin, and opened a meat market [450]. In 1895, they moved north to Fitchburg, Worcester County, Massachusetts. There, Fred primarily clerked (business undetermined), but also had a meat market in 1900 (McCully & Pierce) and again 1911-1912 [451]. They lived in Arlington, Middlesex County, Massachusetts 1914 -1916 [452], then in

74

August 1916, they moved to Dorchester, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, where Fred worked as a meat cutter, clerk and salesman [453, 454]. He died in Dorchester 24 November 1925 [456]. Roxie continued to live in Dorchester, and died there 14 June 1942 [457]. She was buried at Forest Hill Cemetery, Fitchburg. Fred may have been, also, but we haven't confirmed this.

CHAPTER FIVE GENERATION FIVE

74. Newton Isaac Lutes [Annie21, Catherine6, William2, Samuel1] was born 26 September 1878 at Berry Mills, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [1]. He lived with his parents in the Moncton area (Berry Mills, Lutes Mountain) until 1901 [2, 3, 4], by which time he was working as a baggage handler for the railroad. On 20 June 1901, he married Leona Johnson, born ca 1878 at Berry Mills, daughter of John Johnson and Sarapta Steeves [5]. Leona apparently died soon after their marriage, and on 8 September 1902 Newton married 2nd Mary Ann McLeod [5, 6]. Mary Ann, daughter of David McLeod and Christina McKinnon, was born in Moncton 1 January 1884 [7]. Newton and Mary Ann lived at Moncton until 1906, then moved their family to Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada [8, 9]. At Medicine Hat, Newton had a transfer and storage business [10], and also worked in the munitions factory making ammunition for waging World War I [11]. About 1918, the family moved northwest to Drumheller, Alberta, where Newton worked for the Canadian Pacific Railway. They remained at Drumheller until after 1942, after Newton had retired from the railroad, then moved to Burnaby, British Columbia [12]. By 1953, they had relocated to Vancouver Island, living first at Ladysmith, then by 1963 at Campbell River [13]. Mary Ann died at Campbell River 24 March 1963, with Newton following on 3 February 1969 [14].

Children of Newton Lutes and Mary Ann McLeod: 190. Pearl Lutes (12 March 1904 - 27 July 1966) 191. Clarence Kolmer Lutes (24 May 1905 - 29 April 1989) 192. Vera Geraldine Lutes (born and died ca 1907?) 193. Harold Gilbert Lutes (28 December 1908 - 10 April 1999) 194. Gordon Newton Lutes (20 July 1914 - 22 March 1990) 195. Donald Newton Lutes (7 November 1922 - 25 August 1928)

75. Pearl Lutes [Annie21, Catherine6, William2, Samuel1] was born 19 February 1881 at Lutes Mountain, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [15]. She was with her parents in Westmorland County until 1900, then left Canada for the United States [16]. She lived in Massachusetts until 1943, first in Brockton, Plymouth County (from at least 1910 to 1930), then in Everett, Middlesex County (by 1940) [17]. She worked in shoe manufacturing the entire time. She had a Boston, Massachusetts, address in June 1943 [18], but by May 1945 was living in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon [19]. We have been unable to trace Pearl Lutes from 1945 to 1968. She may have

76

been present in Portland, Oregon, in 1955 [20], but we haven't found any other records until her death 19 February 1968 at Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada [21]. She is buried at Hillside Cemetery, Medicine Hat. She never married.

76. Worden Allen Lutes [Annie21, Catherine6, William2, Samuel1] was born 4 November 1883 at Lutes Mountain, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [1]. He lived with his parents in Westmorland County until 1906, then moved to Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada [3, 4, 22]. He was employed as a conductor for the Canadian Pacific Railroad from 1906 until he retired in 1948 [22, 23]. In 1907, Worden married Nellie Legge. Nellie, the daughter of Harry (Henry?) Legge and Mary (probably Dunsby), was born in Southampton, England, 19 March 1886. She arrived in Canada in August 1906, traveling from England as a "domestic" [24]. She returned to England for a visit with her family in 1910, traveling with their 2-year old son [25]; the trip may have provided the impetus for the rest of her family coming to Medicine Hat in 1914 [11]. Nellie died 5 June 1957 at Medicine Hat, and was buried at Hillside Cemetery [26]. On 26 March 1959, Worden Lutes married 2nd Ina (Steeves) Dunham [27]. Ina, daughter of Adam Steeves and Mary Jane O'Neil, and the widow of Frank S. Dunham, was born in New Brunswick, Canada, 25 April 1883. She had moved with her husband in Medicine Hat in 1910, where he died in December 1954. The Dunhams had one daughter [28]. Worden Lutes died at Medicine Hat on 5 June 1965, and was buried at Hillside Cemetery [22]. Ina continued to live in Medicine Hat, dying there 22 May 1972. She is buried in Hillside Cemetery, also [28].

Children of Worden Lutes and Nellie Legge: 196. Willard D. Lutes (July 1908 - 11 January 1989) 197. Gerald M. H. Lutes (ca 1911 - 6 January 1977) 198. Marjorie Patricia Lutes ( 12 January 1913 - 6 June 1960) 199. Allen W. Lutes (3 June 1915 - 28 January 1992) 200. Kathleen M. Lutes (24 February 1919 - 16 October 1987)

77. Clarence Lutes [Annie21, Catherine6, William2, Samuel1] was born ca 1887 at Lutes Mountain, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [3]. He died of diphtheria at the same location 18 February 1892 [29].

78. Eddie Lutes [Annie21, Catherine6, William2, Samuel1] was born August 1888 at Lutes Mountain, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [30]. He died of diphtheria at the same location 21 February 1892 [29].

79. Geoffrey Judson Lutes [Annie21, Catherine6, William2, Samuel1] was born 26 July 1891 at Berry Mills, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [4]. He lived with

77

his parents in Westmorland County until probably 1906, then accompanied his brothers and their families as they moved to Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. By 1911, he was employed as a brakeman for the Canadian Pacific Railway [31]. On 18 June 1913 in Medicine Hat, Geoffrey married Mary A. Hartley [32]. Mary, the daughter of Albert Hartley and Mary Steadman, was born 24 April 1895 at Caseville, Huron County, Michigan [33]. In October 1910, she moved with her family to Medicine Hat [34]. In October 1915 Geoffrey moved with his wife and son to Lethbridge, Alberta [35]. Mary and son Howard left Lethbridge in early January 1917, "to spend the winter months in San Diego, Cal." [36]. Geoffrey stayed in Canada, serving as a conductor for the Canadian Pacific Railway, and apparently living in a railway caboose at Lethbridge [37]. We haven't found a record of Mary returning to Canada before 1919, when Geoffrey reportedly moved to California. In January 1920, they were living in San Luis Obispo, San Luis Obispo County, California, where Geoffrey was employed as a railroad brakeman [38]. Mary and Geoffrey apparently divorced before 1922, and Mary returned to Canada with their son. By 1930, she had married 2nd Charles David McWilliams (1889-1973), a policeman with the Alberta Provincial Police and also the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. After his retirement in 1938, they moved to Chilliwack, British Columbia, where Mary reportedly died in 1994. By 1922, Geoffrey had moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, where he continued to be employed as a switchman with the Union Pacific Railroad. On 4 April 1922, he married 2nd Genevieve (probably Tilkens); they apparently divorced in 1929 [39], and he married 3rd Mary Ella McCabe in Kelso, Cowlitz County, Washington, on 10 September 1929 [40]. Mary, the daughter of Peter McCabe and Minnie O'Brien, was born in Portland, Oregon, in either April 1891 (from the 1900 Federal census) or 29 April 1893 (as given on Geoffrey's naturalization application). Mary had lived in Portland her entire life, first with her father and mother, then after the death of her father with her mother and her mother's 2nd husband John W. Walker [41, 42]. Geoffrey and Mary continued to live in Portland, and he continued to work with the Union Pacific Railway [43]. On 6 May 1936, he filed his intent to become a citizen of the United States. He received his final citizenship papers in January 1941 [44]. Less than a month later, 3 February 1941, he died. He was interred at the Portland Crematorium and Mausoleum [45]. After Geoffrey's death, his widow was almost certainly the Mary E. Lutes who married Clarence Waller in Portland, 12 April 1943 [46]. Clarence Waller died in Portland 16 April 1946 [47]. We have not been able to trace Mary beyond that point.

80. Maud Hilda McCully [William Shepherd25, Samuel10, William2, Samuel1] was born 31 March 1891 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick. She lived there with her family until 1909, when they moved to a farm at Mannhurst, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [48, 49, 50, 51]. On 7 March 1917, she married Edward Fillmore, of West Saint John, New Brunswick. Edward, son of Edward Harris Fillmore and Francis Jane Stears, was born in 1893 at Damascus, Kings County, New Brunswick [5]. Occupationally, he worked for the railroad [5], and also was a carpenter [52]. The couple lived in West Saint John, but Edward soon contracted tuberculosis, and died at Saint John County Hospital 25 March 1919 [52]. He was buried at Greenwood Cemetery, Saint John. Maud returned to the family farm at Mannhurst. On 17 September 1923 at Moncton, Westmorland County, she married Robert Hugh McKnight. Robert, son of Alexander McKnight and Mary Forrest, was born 29 May 1893 at Center Nappan, Northumberland County, New Brunswick. He was a blacksmith by trade [5, 53]. They lived at Mannhurst the rest of their lives, Robert dying there 12 April 1957 and Maud 21 February 1963 [53]. They are buried at the Pine Grove Cemetery, Corn Hill, New Brunswick.

81. Charles Ian McCully [William Shepherd25, Samuel10, William2, Samuel1] was born 17 April 1892 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick [1]. He lived there with his family until 1909, when they moved to a farm at Mannhurst, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [49, 50, 51]. He was a farmer. On 30 January 1929 at Petitcodiac, Westmorland County, he married Gertrude Helen Lane. Gertrude, daughter of John Wesley Lane and Mabel Gertrude Goggin, was born 29 September 1929 at Forest Grove, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [5, 54]. Charles died at Petitcodiac 3 September 1974, and Gertrude 18 July 2002. Burial was at Maplewood Cemetery, Petitcodiac [54]. Apparently, they had no children.

82. Alice Mary McCully [William Shepherd25, Samuel10, William2, Samuel1] was born 18 February 1894 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick [1]. She

79

lived there with her family until 1909, when they moved to a farm at Mannhurst, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [49, 50, 51]. On 19 August 1916, she married in Saint John, New Brunswick, George Granville Scott. George, the son of William W. Scott and Annie Helen Richardson, was born in Saint John on 20 January 1895 [1, 5]. Alice and George left New Brunswick in 1926, and moved to Trenton, Mercer County, New Jersey, where George's brother, Walter W. Scott, was living [55]. They were there in 1951, and George was manager of a grocery store [56, 57, 58]. By 1954, they had moved to Levittown, Bucks County, Pennsylvania [59]. We have not been able to trace them after that. They apparently had no children.

85. Seymour Frederick McCully [William Shepherd25, Samuel10, William2, Samuel1] was born 31 May 1900 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick [1]. He lived there with his family until 1909, when they moved to a farm at Mannhurst, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [49, 50, 51]. He continued to live and work with his parents through the early 1920s [60]. On 6 July 1921, at West Saint John, Saint John County, New Brunswick, Seymour married Ada Pearl Mill [5]. Ada, daughter of Palmerson Mill and Annie Bell Crossman, was born at Clermont, Prince Edward Island, Canada, in February 1901 [5, 62]. At the time of the marriage, Seymour had been living at Mannhurst, working as a carpenter [60], but the couple apparently remained at Saint John, as children were born there between 1921 and 1928 [63]. Presumably, Seymour and Ada continued to live at Saint John and in nearby Kings County for the rest of their lives, although we found no specific records between 1928 and 1945. From then on, they lived in the Gondola Point - Rothsay area of Kings County, with Seymour working as a carpenter, building contractor, and auctioneer [64]. Ada reportedly died 6 September 1969, and by 1972 Seymour married 2nd Hilda Rae (Gardiner) Peters [65], widow of William John Peters [5]. Hilda, daughter of Wellesley W. Gardiner and Agnes Estey, was born in Saint John 1 August 1906 [1]. Hilda reportedly had three children with William Peters. Seymour died 10 January 1989, and Hilda followed 12 June 1992. Reportedly, Hilda was buried at the Cedar Hill Cemetery in Saint John. Seymour and Ada may have been buried at St. Luke's Anglican Church cemetery at Gondola Point, Kings County, as at least one of their sons was buried there.

He continued to live and work with his parents through the 1920s [60]. On 29 October 1929 at Amherst, Cumberland County, Nova Scotia, Norman married Venetta B. Mattinson [66]. Venetta, daughter of Robert W. Mattinson and Eva Eaton, was born 18 December 1903 at Beckwith, Cumberland County, Nova Scotia [67]. With her parents, she left Canada 15 November 1908, via McAdam, New Brunswick and Vanceboro, Maine [68]. They resided at Brockton, Plymouth County, Massachusetts, where her father worked in a "welting factory" (presumably stitching shoes) and as a park caretaker [69, 70]. They returned to Nova Scotia in May 1923 [68]. Norman and Venetta continued to live and farm at Mannhurst. On 2 June 1960, he fell from a truck loaded with hay, suffering head injuries.

At some point, she moved to Moncton, Westmorland County, where she was employed in the 1940s and 1950s as a clerk and stenographer [77]. On 3 September 1960 at Moncton, Ena married William Leslie Codner [5]. William, son of Henry Codner and Eva Lilley, was born 1 January 1904 at Saint John, Saint John County, New Brunswick [1]. He had previously been married and divorced, but we haven't determined his first wife's name. At the time of his marriage to Eva, he was living in Moncton, and was employed as a radio technician. Ena died 18 March 1973, and William in June 1994 [51]. We have found no details of their deaths or burials.

90. Ross Oliver McCully [William Shepherd25, Samuel10, William2, Samuel1] was born 5 September 1907 in Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick [1].

91. Bruce Burton McCully [William Shepherd25, Samuel10, William2, Samuel1] was born 12 July 1909 at either Havelock, Kings County, or Mannhurst, Westmorland County, New Brunswick. He died at Mannhurst 17 February 1913, and was buried at Corn Hill Cemetery, Havelock Parish [51]. We haven't been able to determine cause of death.

92. Grant Delbert McCully [William Shepherd25, Samuel10, William2, Samuel1] was born 24 January 1911 at Mannhurst, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [1]. He was still living and farming at Mannhurst when on 30 August 1941, he married Eileen Carman Lounsbury [5].

She lived with her family there until 4 December 1929, when she married William Taylor McIlveen. William, son of James McIlveen and Mina Preston, was born in Glasgow, Scotland, 11 December 1912 [51]. William came to Canada alone in 1928 at the age of 15, one of many Scottish children from "underprivileged circumstances" brought to Cossar Farms, Lower Gagetown, New Brunswick, to learn farming and self-sufficiency [80, 81]. Lulu and William apparently lived in Westmorland County after their marriage, but we found few records. He made one trip alone to Scotland, returning in 1934 [82]. Lulu died 12 October 1989 [51]; William died at Petitcodiac in October 1995 [83].

94. Asa Grant McCully born 1866 [John26, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born ca

84

1866 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon [84]. Both parents died of typhoid fever in December 1881 [85], and Grant (as he was usually known) and his brother Harry were taken in by their mother's Roach family. Grant was gone from Oregon by 1900, and may have been living in Wallace, Shoshone County, Idaho [86]. About 1904, Grant McCully married Ethyl (sometimes, Ethel) Alice Nelson [87]. Ethyl, daughter of James H. Nelson and Alice Adelia Gillis, was born 24 April 1879 at Tingley, Ringgold County, Iowa. She was still living with her parents at Tingley on 1 June 1900, employed as a dress maker [88]. How and when she met Grant and came to Washington are unknowns; her parents were still living in Iowa in 1905, when her mother died there [89]. Grant and Ethyl lived in Spokane, and Grant continued to be employed as a brakeman, and later baggage clerk, for the Oregon Railroad and Navigation Company. Ethyl died at Spokane 9 October 1917, apparently after a prolonged illness [90]. In early 1919, their son John McCully was arrested for robbing several stores in East Spokane. Grant was arrested for receiving stolen goods, and was also found to have numerous items in his possession, apparently stolen from the baggage cars where he worked. While out of police custody on bail in mid-March 1919, he committed suicide [91, 92]. The death was officially recorded as occurring 9 March 1919, although the actual date was uncertain, as the body was not immediately discovered [93]. Both Ethyl and Grant were presumably buried at Spokane, but we have not confirmed the burial location for either.

Children of Grant McCully and Ethyl Nelson: 234. John H. McCully (19 December 1904 - 18 March 1979) 235. Grant Earl McCully (18 July 1906 - 23 October 1906) 236. Lila Gertrude McCully (2 September 1907 - 18 March 1976)

95. Harry A. McCully [John26, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born in 1870 (probably July or August) in Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon [84]. Both parents died of typhoid fever in December 1881 [85], and Harry and his brother Grant were taken in by their mother's Roach family. Nothing is known of Harry's years in Oregon. In early 1893, he left for Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, to attend the Chicago World's Fair; he was in touch with friends in Oregon until ca 1896, but not after that [86]. In 1919, in the interest of settling his and his brother Grant's estates, the Linn County probate court declared him dead [94]. In reality, he was still alive, and possibly was living in Chicago the entire time. We could not locate him in the 1900 or 1910 censuses, but he was in Chicago by 1920, working as a hotel clerk [95]. He held similar positions the rest of his life [96, 97], dying in Chicago 24 May 1943. He was buried at the Glen Oak Cemetery at Proviso, Cook County, Illinois [98]. He apparently never married.

85

96. Winfield Scott Waters [Mary Ann27, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 20 April 1857 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. He lived with his family in Josephine County, Oregon 1857 to around 1861 [99, 100]; Harrisburg to about 1871 [101]; in eastern Oregon (Umatilla and Union counties) 1871 to 1875 [102, 103]; Salem, Marion County, Oregon, in 1875; and in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, until 1884. While in Portland, he was variously employed as a bailiff in the U. S. Court, as a clerk in the U. S. Marshal's office, and as a deputy U. S. Marshal [104]. In August 1877, he applied for a cadet position at West Point Academy; he was accepted, but was disqualified after failing to pass entrance testing [105, 106]. In 1884, Winfield moved with his father and family to Burns, Harney County, Oregon. There, he and his brother Edward raised livestock. He was elected as Harney County assessor in 1897, and held the position two years. He then formed a partnership with S. Bailey, running the Hotel Burns and accompanying saloon. He died from pneumonia 11 March 1899, and was buried in the Burns Cemetery [107].

97. Mary C. Waters [Mary Ann27, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] born 1859, probably in Josephine County, Oregon. She lived with her family in Josephine County, Oregon 1859 to around 1861 [99, 100]; Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon to about 1871 [101]; in eastern Oregon (Umatilla and Union counties) 1871 to 1875 [102, 103]; Salem, Marion County, Oregon, in 1875; and in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, until 1884 [104]. In 1884, Mary moved with her father and siblings to Burns, Harney County, Oregon. It isn't clear how long she lived at Burns; in June 1894, she was described as "of Burns" [108], but prior to 1900 had lived "for a time" with her uncle, John Morrison Waters, in Brownsville, Linn County, Oregon, and later in Harrisburg [109]. She died in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon 6 May 1900, reportedly on her way from Harrisburg, Oregon, to Idaho to stay with her father, "for her health" [109]. She was buried in Lone Fir Cemetery, Portland [110]. She never married.

98. Edward B. Waters [Mary Ann27, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 8 November 1862 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon.

While in Portland, he graduated from high school, and he was employed as a printer and typesetter [103, 104]. Edward moved with his family to Burns, Harney County, Oregon, in 1884. There, he and his brother Winfield raised livestock. He was appointed postmaster at

86

Burns in 1899, and held that position to 1910 [111]. He also acted as agent for the C. M. Kellogg Stage Company in 1910 and 1911 [112]. He was elected Harney County Clerk in November 1909, and was re-elected to the post in November 1912, but resigned because of ill health in January 1913 [113]. Following his resignation, he traveled to Portland, then to La Grande, Union County, Oregon, where he was admitted to the Hot Lake Sanitarium for treatment of his unspecified illness [114]. He returned to Burns in April 1914, where he planned to remain for "an indefinite time" [115]. So far, we have been unable to trace him beyond that time. He apparently never married.

99. Eva Waters, daughter of Abner Waters and Sarah McCartney, was born in 1871, either in Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon, or in Umatilla County, Oregon. She may have been the twin sister of Alice ("Allie") Waters [116]. She was with her family in eastern Oregon (Umatilla and Union counties) 1871 to 1875 [102, 103]; in Salem, Marion County, Oregon, 1875; and in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, 1876 to 1884 [104]. She moved with her father and siblings to Burns, Harney County, Oregon, in 1884. At Burns on 26 January 1894, Eva married Maurice F. Fitzgerald. Maurice, son of Maurice Fitzgerald and Margaret Cooke, was born in County Cork, Ireland, on 3 January 1851. He came to the United States in 1872, and began a career in the U. S. Army that brought him to California and Oregon. Later, in Burns, he was in the livestock business and was an attorney [117, 118]. Eva died of pneumonia 5 November 1895 [119, 120], We have not determined her burial site. Maurice married 2nd on 30 January 1897, Elizabeth Norton. Elizabeth, daughter of John W. Norton and Eliza Dougherty, was born 12 December 1878 at Cobden, Union County, Illinois. The couple left Burns in 1907, moving to Mount Vernon, Skagit County, Washington, then to Seattle, Kings County, Washington. By 1940, they had moved to California. Maurice died in Napa County 6 December 1941, with Elizabeth following 9 October 1947 [117]. Maurice and Elizabeth had seven children. The two daughters of Maurice and Eva were raised by Waters relatives.

Children of Maurice Fitzgerald and Eva Waters: 237. Helen Fitzgerald (21 April 1894 - 18 March 1984) 238. Evalyn Waters Fitzgerald (28 October 1895 - 7 August 1924)

100. Alice "Allie" Waters, daughter of Abner Waters and Sarah McCartney, was born August 1871, either in Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon, or in Umatilla County, Oregon. She may have been the twin sister of Eva Waters [116]. She was with her family in eastern Oregon (Umatilla and Union counties) 1871 to 1875 [102, 103]; in Salem, Marion County, Oregon, 1875; and in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, 1876 to 1884 [104]. She moved with her father and siblings to

87

Burns, Harney County, Oregon, in 1884. Allie returned to Portland (date unknown), and on 27 November 1898 married William Lee Lister [119]. William, son of William Lister and Rebecca Daniels, was born 22 April 1862 at Albany, Linn County, Oregon. He was a grocer by trade. He had married 1st Carrie Gertrude Love [Generation Four, Person #56]. Carrie had died 5 August 1896. William and Allie continued to live in Portland. William died there 3 June 1916 [120, 121], and was buried in the Greenwood Cemetery. Allie remained in Portland until at least January 1920, at which time she was living with her step-son, Charles Roth Lister [122]. We have been unable to trace her after that date.

101 Henrietta Ann Hendershott [Delilah28, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 6 October 1861 at Kerbyville, Josephine County, Oregon. She died there 10 November 1862, and was reportedly the first person interred in the Laurel (then, Kerby) Cemetery [123].

102. Etta Catherine Hendershott [Delilah28, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 6 January 1864 in Josephine County, Oregon, probably at Waldo [124]. She lived with her family at Waldo, Oregon, until 1871, when they moved to Crescent City, Del Norte County, California. On 17 June 1880, she married Joseph Asbury (Atterbury?) Hutchinson. Joseph Hutchinson, son of Joseph Hutchinson and Rhoda Elizabeth Violet, was reportedly born 16 January 1858 at Oskaloosa, Mahaska County, Iowa [125]. Within a few years of his birth, his family apparently moved to Canada (location undetermined), then to Boulder County, Colorado, by June 1870 [126]. He was in Crescent City, California by June 1880, working in a sawmill [127], but we have not determined how or when he arrived. Joseph returned with Etta to Colorado by 1885, where Joseph worked as a miner [128]. They were living at Jamestown, Boulder County, Colorado, on 14 February 1888, when Etta died of scarlet fever. She was buried in the Columbia Cemetery at Boulder [129]. By 1899, Joseph was back in Crescent City, California, where he married Jessie Marie Moore [130]. Jessie, daughter of William Henry Moore and Priscilla Johnston, was reportedly born in Michigan in 1865. She and Joseph lived in Crescent City, with Joseph employed as a railroad engineer. She died in 1920, presumably at Crescent City, but we don't know where her burial occurred. Joseph may have left the area for awhile after that, as we cannot identify him in the 1930 Federal census. However, he was in Crescent City by 1935, married 3rd to Jennie Palmer [131]. Jennie was born in Utah, in either 1869 (tombstone inscription) or 1879 (from 1940 Federal census); we have not discovered her parentage, or how she came to marry Joseph Hutchinson. Jennie died 23 March 1955 at Crescent City, and Joseph on 29 March 1956. Both are buried in the

88

I.O.O.F. Cemetery at Crescent City.

She lived with her family at Waldo, Oregon, until 1871, when they moved to Crescent City, Del Norte County, California. On 14 September 1884 she married Alonzo Burr Moorhead. Alonzo, son of James S. Moorhead and Josephine (Burr?), was born 25 June 1856 at Yreka, Siskiyou County, California [132]. Between 1866 and 1870, the family moved to Jacksonville, Jackson County, Oregon [133], and in 1871 moved to Crescent City [132]. Alonzo was working in a sawmill in Crescent City in 1880 [127]. Early in their marriage, Eleanor and Alonzo lived at Crescent City and near Smith River, Del Norte County, where in 1910, Alonzo was working as a "stationary engineer" [134]. From about 1912 to 1920, they were superintendent and matron of the State Hospital at Crescent City [132, 135]. In 1918, they moved to a ranch at Fort Dick, Del Norte County, which they farmed with their son Sidney Moorhead [135, 136]. Alonzo died there 27 April 1926, "after a long illness" [136]. Eleanor continued to live with their son at Fort Dick (except for perhaps a short time around 1930, when she was employed as a cook at Smith River [137]). She died 27 May 1951. Both she and Alonzo were buried at the I.O.O.F. Cemetery at Crescent City.

George Berg, son of Adam Berg and Mary Mann, was born 27 October 1868 in Giard Township, Clayton County, Iowa [139, 140]. After leaving home, he traveled widely through the West, reportedly working as a cowboy in Washington, Oregon, South Dakota, and New Mexico. He also was a gold miner in southern California

89

[141]. He had arrived in Crescent City by 1890, and was reportedly working as a surveyor [135]. He was also employed by Hobbs, Wall & Co., a major local lumber mill and factory, "for several years" [142]. By September 1894, Tillie and George had moved to Los Angeles, California [143], where George was employed as a "conductor" (railroad?) in 1896 [144], and a police officer by 1900 [145]. At the same time, he owned and managed some 300 acres, with 13 mining claims, in the Providence Mountains, which in 1902 had been organized as the Providence Gold and Copper Company [146]. The length of their stay in Los Angeles is uncertain, but by 1907 they were in Seattle, King County, Washington, where George was director of the Washington State Arts Association [147], a position he held until at least 1914 [148]. George Berg's paintings began to be recognized nationwide. It isn't clear when or how he began painting. He is often described as "self-taught," but he is also said to have been "educated at the Art Students League of New York" [149]. His paintings were exhibited with the National Academy of Design (New York, New York) in 1918, 1919, 1920, and 1927. He is said to have maintained a studio in New York City at some point [149], perhaps when he and Tillie were living in Connecticut in the early 1920s [150, 151]. George and Tillie Berg were living in La Fayette County, Florida, in April 1930, with George's occupation described as magazine artist-writer [152]. We haven't determined how long they were in Florida; by 1936, they were at Los Gatos, Santa Clara County, California. He reportedly had only one showing of his paintings in California, at the St. Claire Hotel in San Jose in 1937. About that time, he suffered a stroke which somewhat debilitated him, leading to his death at Los Gatos 1 July 1941 [141]. After George's death, Tillie lived with the family of their daughter, Gail (Berg) Reitzel in San Mateo, San Mateo County, California. She died there 14 June 1951. Both George and Tillie were buried in the I.O.O.F. Cemetery, Crescent City, California.

Child of George Berg and Sarah Matilda Hendershott: 245. Gail Linnaea Berg (1 September 1894 - 28 July 1969)

105. Mary Frances Hendershott [Delilah28, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 8 November 1880 at Crescent City, Del Norte County, California. She lived at Crescent City until 1895, then she and her widowed mother Delilah Hendershott moved to Los Angeles, California [144, 145]. Frances graduated from the State Normal School in 1900 [153], and was teaching school in East Los Angeles by 1902 [154]. She was awarded a statewide grammar school teaching diploma by the California State Board of Education in 1906 [155]. Frances was living and teaching school in Glendale, Los Angeles County, California, when on 22 June 1910 she married Frank J. Walton. Frank, son of

90

George Walton and Millicent Adair, was born in Crescent City 9 January 1875, and was a life-long friend of Frances. After the wedding, the couple returned to Crescent City. Frank had worked with his father on their dairy farm, had been a salesman for the Hobbs, Wall & Company mill and store, built homes, and managed rental property [132, 156]. He died at Crescent City 5 January 1950; Frances followed on 9 November 1960. Both were buried in the I.O.O.F. Cemetery at Crescent City. Frank Walton and Frances Hendershott had no children.

106. Clara McCully [William29, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 22 June 1869, either in Linn County or Wasco County, Oregon [157]. By 1880, her family had moved to Cove, Union County, Oregon [158], and then to Wallowa County, Oregon, by 1885. There, on 25 November 1891, she married Edward Winslow Rumble. Ed Rumble, son of John A. Rumble and Lucinda Sommers, was born 4 April 1867 in Washington County, Iowa, probably in Clayton Township [159]. Some time after 1870, the family moved to Rawlins, Carbon County, Wyoming [160], then soon after 1880 to Wallowa (then, Union) County, Oregon. Ed reportedly attended elementary school in Iowa [161], then in Oregon attended Blue Mountain University, a Methodist school in La Grande, Oregon. Following his graduation, he taught school for several terms at the Prairie Creek school [162]. In 1888, he enrolled in a business college in Portland, Oregon [163]. After returning to the Wallowa Valley, he worked for Frank D. McCully in the McCully mercantile business, the largest general store in eastern Oregon at the time. He was first employed as a salesman, then as a partner, and by 1900 was in charge of the branch store in Lostine, Wallowa County, and was a vice-president of the company [161, 164]. In subsequent years, he partnered with Frank McCully in a number of business dealings, including the Joseph-Elgin Stage Line [165], the McCully- Rumble Land & Power Company [166], sheep ranching and other agricultural pursuits [167]. Clara died 21 September 1904, after being ill for some time. She was buried at the Prairie Creek Cemetery [168]. On 1 December 1909 at San Francisco, California, Ed Rumble married 2nd Daisy E. Starr. Daisy, daughter of Hugh B. Starr and Catherine Miller, was born at Weston, Umatilla County, Oregon, on 3 December 1878 [169]. Their wedding came at the start of a three-month honeymoon tour across the United States, to Cuba, across Mexico, and back to Oregon [170]. Ed had moved to La Grande, Union County, Oregon, about 1908, and was employed by Bolton & Bodmer, a farm equipment business in La Grande. When the couple returned to Oregon, they settled at La Grande. Ed continued to be active with Frank McCully in the Wallowa Valley, but also had other interests. In June 1911, he sold 1,600 acres of timberland he owned near the city [171]. At the

91

same time, he purchased a 40-acre farm to be planted to fruit trees [172]. Apparently, Ed and Daisy moved to Joseph, Oregon, for a brief period, but by March 1913 they were living in Portland, Oregon, for "an indefinite stay" [173]. Their stay became permanent, and while there, Ed and others incorporated the Columbia Basin Wool Warehouse, doing business in Portland and in Boston, Massachusetts [174, 175]. Ed Rumble died suddenly in Portland 17 March 1919, as he was exercising at his gym. His body was returned to Joseph, Oregon, where he was buried with Clara Rumble at Prairie Creek Cemetery [176]. Daisy returned to Joseph, and lived there first with Ed's parents and later by herself. She died 26 January 1967, and was buried at Prairie Creek Cemetery. There were no children from either of the Rumble marriages.

107. Fred Fletcher McCully [William29, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 8 October 1870 in Oregon, probably in Wasco County [177]. By 1880, his family had moved to Cove, Union County, Oregon [158], and then to Wallowa County, Oregon, by 1885. He lived in Joseph, Oregon, throughout his youth. Early on, he became associated with the mercantile business of his uncle, Frank D. McCully. He worked in the main store in Joseph and sometimes made trips out of the area to buy stock for the store [178, 179]. On 24 November 1897, Fred married Margaret Luella ("Maggie") Gaily. Maggie, daughter of Dr. James M. Gaily and Lida (Elizabeth?) Elliott, was born 5 October 1872 at Mulberry, Bates County, Missouri [180]. Maggie's family moved from Missouri to the Wallowa Valley in 1883 [181]. Fred and Maggie both lived in Joseph until at least 1927 [182], except for part of 1917-1918 when Maggie lived in Salem, Oregon, so that their daughter Evadne could attend Willamette University [183]. By 1930 they had moved to Wallowa, Wallowa County, Oregon [184]. Fred served as Joseph alderman beginning in April 1899 [185], and in April 1907 was elected mayor of Joseph [186]. He served as mayor until May 1909, when he resigned to take the position of assistant cashier at the First Bank of Joseph [187]. He served another term as Joseph mayor following election in April 1911 [188]. In Wallowa, Fred served first as assistant cashier at the local bank [184], then as assistant postmaster [189]. He died 28 December 1945 in the hospital at La Grande, Union County, Oregon. He was buried in the Prairie Creek Cemetery in Joseph [190]. Maggie continued to live at Wallowa. She died in the hospital at Enterprise, Wallowa County, on 10 March 1960. She was buried at the Prairie Creek Cemetery at Joseph, also [180].

Children of Fred F. McCully and Margaret Gaily: 246. Unidentified child born and died 1898 - 1899 [191]. 247. Evadne Lucille McCully (20 March 1899 - 27 December 1918)

92

248. Gladys M. McCully (1901 - 16 November 1901) [191]. 249. Kermit Asa McCully (4 November 1904 - 1 October 1961)

108. Guy E. McCully [William29, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 4 November 1872 in Union County, Oregon, perhaps at La Grande [192]. He lived for a few years with his family at Cove, Union County [158], but by 1885 they had moved to the Wallowa Valley. Guy spent the rest of his youth at Joseph, but by 1900 had moved to La Grande, Union County, Oregon, where he was working as a clerk [193]. He continued to live at La Grande until 1910, most of his time employed as assistant cashier at the Farmers & Traders National Bank. In February 1910, he took a job as bookkeeper at the Shockley & McMurren Lumber Company in Baker City, Baker County, Oregon [194]. Within a year, he had returned to La Grande, and was working with his former brother-in-law, James G. Snodgrass [195], when he was taken ill with "Bright's disease" (nephritis, a kidney disease). He died at the La Grande hospital 26 February 1912, of nephritis complicated by pneumonia. He was buried at Prairie Creek cemetery at Joseph [196]. On 30 November 1904 at La Grande, Guy McCully had married Judith N. Snodgrass. Judith, daughter of William Jessup Snodgrass and Maria Barbara DeWitt, was born in La Grande 28 September 1884. She and Guy divorced in 1909 [197], and Judith lived part time in La Grande and part time with her sister, Margaret Abbott, and her family at Colfax, Whitman County, Washington [198]. In March 1911, she traveled to Kansas City, Missouri, to meet with others for a tour of Europe [199]. In Kansas City, she met Raymond Atwood Wells, whose first wife died in November 1911 [199]. She married Raymond at Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri, 30 December 1912 [200]. A native of Canton, Stark County, Ohio, he was born 22 November 1859, son of Thomas Wells and Mary Gregg. Judith and Raymond lived at Kansas City until at least mid-1916 [201], but by 1920 had moved to Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California [202]. They lived the remainder of their lives in Los Angeles, he dying there 1 May 1947 and she 23 May 1958. Guy McCully and Judith Snodgrass had no children.

109. Lola M. McCully [William29, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 22 May 1875 (a twin of Lila McCully) in Union County, Oregon, probably at Cove. She lived for a few years with her family at Cove, [158], but by 1885 they had moved to the Wallowa Valley. Lola spent the rest of her youth at Joseph [178]. She taught school locally, and in March 1899 she became principal of the public school at Lostine, Wallowa County, Oregon [203]. On 13 June 1900 at Joseph, Lola McCully married a neighbor, George Franklin Conley [204]. "Frank" Conley, son of George Washington Conley and Rebecca Sophia Hooper, was born 18 February 1867, at Warrensburg, Johnson County,

93

Missouri [205]. Apparently, his family moved shortly after his birth, as they were in nearby Jackson County, Missouri, for the 1870 census. They moved to Lincoln Linn County, Kansas, by 1875 [206], and were there as least until 1880 [207]. They came to Joseph, Oregon, in 1888 [208]. At the time of their marriage, Frank Conley was working in a dry goods store [178]. The couple lived in Joseph until at least 1904, but by 1907 had moved to Hood River, Hood River County, Oregon [209]. There were still there 18 December 1909 when Lola died, apparently of heart and circulation problems [209]. She was buried at the Prairie Creek Cemetery at Joseph. In 1910, Frank was living in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, employed as an embalmer [210]. His two young children were with relatives in Joseph and Enterprise, Wallowa County, Oregon [211, 212]. On 17 June 1911, in Portland, he married 2nd Augusta ("Gussie") Amey. Gussie, daughter of Amos Amey and Martha Hannah Crandall, was born in November 1867 at Trenton, Grundy County, Missouri [213, 214]. She lived with her family in Missouri until ca 1885, then they moved to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. After Amos Amey died at Joseph in June 1889, his widow Martha moved the family to Warren County, Illinois, where she had spent her childhood [214]. Gussie returned to Joseph for a visit with relatives in 1909-1910 [215, 216]; presumably Frank met, or became reacquainted with, her on that occasion [217]. After their marriage in Portland, the couple moved to Corvallis, Benton County, Oregon, where Frank was a partner in the Brauer & Conley furniture store [218]. In 1915, the store was moved to Eugene, Lane County, Oregon [219]. Brauer & Conley remained in business through at least 1918 [220], but by 1920 had apparently closed [221]. Frank and Gussie remained in Eugene, Frank working in various department stores, until about 1939 when he opened the Conley Service Station [220]. Frank died at Eugene 6 August 1948, and was buried at the West Lawn Memorial Cemetery [205]. Gussie died the following year 9 August 1949; her burial site has not been confirmed.

Children of George F. Conley and Lola McCully: 250. Maurice M. Conley (30 September 1901 - 18 October 1941) 251. Maurine Conley (14 March 1904 - 9 December 1992)

110. Lila McCully [William29, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 22 May 1875 (a twin of Lola McCully) in Union County, Oregon, probably at Cove. She died shortly after birth. Her burial site has not been determined.

111. Ethel Harriet McCully [William29, Samuel11, John3, Samuel1] was born 30 August 1879 at Cove, Union County, Oregon. She lived for a few years with her family at Cove, [158], but by 1885 they had moved to the Wallowa Valley. Lola spent the rest of her youth at Joseph [178]. She taught school locally, at Lostine,

94

Wallowa County, in 1900 [162]. Ethel married on 30 December 1905 Herman August Sonne. Herman, son of Julius Sonne and Christine Morgan, was born 15 August 1876 at Warren, Warren County, Pennsylvania [222, 223]. He lived at Warren until some time after 1900, and reportedly worked at a bank there. He was at Joseph, Oregon, by about 1902, employed by the First National Bank of Joseph [224]. After marriage, Herman continued to work for the Joseph bank, but in 1906 they moved to Baker City, Baker County, Oregon, where Herman accepted a job as teller at the Baker Loan & Trust Company. He worked there as teller, and later cashier, until 1918, when he was appointed as an Oregon state bank manager in Salem, Marion County, Oregon [223, 224]. Herman resigned as state bank manager in September 1919, "to accept a place with the federal reserve bank at San Francisco" [225]. However, the move to San Francisco did not occur at that time. The family was still in Salem in January 1920, with Herman still identified as a bank examiner [226]. In 1921, they were living in Portland [227], but by 1923 were in Salt Lake City, Utah, with Herman employed with the Federal Reserve Bank [228]. They returned to Portland 1926-1927, with Herman in a similar capacity as bank examiner [227], then in 1928 relocated to the Federal Reserve Bank offices in Burlingame, San Mateo County, California. They remained at Burlingame through 1933, then moved into San Francisco until 1940, with Herman as Chief Bank Examiner [229, 230, 231]. Herman retired about 1941, and he and Ethel moved to Palo Alto, Santa Clara County, California [232]. Herman died there 5 April 1953, with Ethel following 29 September 1960. We have not identified their burial location.

Children of Herman Sonne and Ethel McCully: 252. Vesta McCully Sonne (3 February 1907 - 29 June 1994) 253. Julius Asa Sonne (30 September 1908 - 3 October 1994)

113. Mary Creighton [Mary Jane31, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 14 September 1870 at Union, Union County, Oregon. "Mollie" lived with her family there until 1879, when they relocated to Joseph, Wallowa County. After the death of her father, John Creighton, in December 1884, her mother took her and her sisters to Salem, Marion County, Oregon, where they lived with their grandfather, David McCully. In Salem, Mollie worked for the post office [233]. On 14 September 1898, in Salem, she married William H. Dancy [234]. "Jack" Dancy, son of John Dancy and Mary Ann Simmons, was born 8 January 1868 at Bermondsey, London, England

95

[235]. He arrived in the United States with his family at New York on 14 July 1868, aboard the ship Harvest Queen from Liverpool, England [236]. The family reportedly settled briefly in Linn County, Oregon [237], but by June 1870 were living in Salem, Marion County, Oregon [238]. Jack spent most of his childhood there, and the couple continued to live there for most of their married life [237]. Jack's entire career was involved with the electrical and communications fields. After working in the field as electrician and telephone lineman, he became Marion County manager of the phone company in 1906, district commercial manager in 1910, and commercial representative from 1927 until his retirement in 1930 [237]. Mollie died in a Salem hospital 16 June 1934, following a heart attack. Jack died at Spokane, Spokane County, Washington, on 12 May 1937, the aftermath of a car crash that had occurred 8 May 1937 [237]. Their burial locations have not been determined. Jack and Mollie Dancy had no children.

114. Jessie McCully Creighton [Mary Jane31, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 9 October 1871 at Union, Union County, Oregon. She lived with her family there until 1879, when they relocated to Joseph, Wallowa County. After the death of her father, John Creighton, in December 1884, her mother took her and her sisters to Salem, Marion County, Oregon, where they lived with their grandfather, David McCully. On 7 December 1905, Jessie married Wiley Alvin Jones. "Al," son of Thomas B. Jones and Mary Olive Coonse, was born 30 December 1877 at Mission Bottom, north of Salem. He attended school there, then attended and graduated from Portland Business College. He returned to Mission Bottom to work, first on leased land and then on the family farm [239]. He is credited with bringing the first Duroc hogs to Marion County, following later with the introductions of Hampshire and Tamworth hogs [240]. Al and Jessie continued to live and farm at Mission Bottom until 1911, when they moved to Joseph, Wallowa County. There, they operated a 1,000 acre farm, with sheep and reportedly the first Hampshire hogs in Wallowa County [239, 240, 241]. In 1915, Al was elected State Representative for Union and Wallowa counties, and the family returned to Salem. In 1917, he was elected to the Legislature as Marion County representative, and was running for State Senator from Marion County when he became ill in 1918. He died 3 November 1918, after an illness of six months of paralysis, apparently the result of "malarial fever" [242]. He was buried at City View Cemetery, Salem. Jessie returned to the family farm at Mission Bottom, and continued to work there with her son, Creighton Jones, and also her sister Mabel Creighton. She died 1 February 1950, and was buried at City View Cemetery, Salem.

115. Mabel Scott Creighton [Mary Jane31, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 12 June 1874 at Union, Union County, Oregon. She lived with her family there until 1879, when they relocated to Joseph, Wallowa County. After the death of her father, John Creighton, in December 1884, her mother took her and her sisters to Salem, Marion County, Oregon, where they lived with their grandfather, David McCully. Mabel lived at Salem until about 1907, then lived in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, until about 1921 [243]. We could not determine an occupation for her in those years. Later, she spent most of her time at Jonesmere, the Jones farm at Mission Bottom, working with her sister and nephew. She became well known for her exceptional gardens of columbines [244]. She died at Salem 20 July 1940, and was buried at the Pioneer Cemetery there. She never married.

116. Rose Estelle Creighton [Mary Jane31, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 28 December 1878 at Union, Union County, Oregon. The family almost immediately relocated to Joseph, Wallowa County. After the death of her father, John Creighton, in December 1884, her mother took her and her sisters to Salem, Marion County, Oregon, where they lived with their grandfather, David McCully. About 1898, Rose married Clyde Raabe. Clyde, son of George Raabe and Nanny Bradley, was born in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, on 26 June 1878 [245]. The couple lived briefly in Portland, but Rose became ill with a brain tumor early in 1900 and returned to her mother's home in Salem. She died there 14 July 1900, and was buried in the Salem Pioneer Cemetery [246]. Clyde Raabe, who had recently qualified as a river boat captain, continued through his life in that profession. In 1904, he married 2nd Lola Channell, who died in 1947, They had one son. Clyde died 16 May 1955 in Portland, and was buried at Lincoln Memorial Park [245]. Rose and Clyde had no children.

117. Hettie Jane Ownbey, child of John William McCully's wife Sarah Graham and her 1st husband James A. Ownbey, was born 3 April 1876 at Elgin, Union County, Oregon. Her father, James Ownbey, died in 1880, and her mother, Sarah (Graham) Ownbey, married 2nd John William McCully in 1883. Hettie was raised in the McCully family until 15 April 1892, when she married James Henry Compau at Weiser, Washington County, Idaho [247]. James, son of Stephen Compau and Anna ____, was born in Canada (probably Ontario) in 1868 or 1869 [248]. His family moved to the United States within a year of his birth, apparently settling

97

first at Imlay, Lapeer County, Michigan. We have been unable to trace him or his family from 1880 until he appeared at Elgin, Oregon, in 1892. After their marriage, Hettie and James continued to live at Elgin, with James employed as a dry goods salesman [249]. By 1907 they had moved to Lowden, Walla Walla County, Washington, where James worked as a mail carrier [250]. They lived the rest of their lives near Walla Walla, working a dairy farm [251, 252]. James died there 23 January 1936, and Hettie died 10 November 1958. They are buried at the Mountain View Cemetery at Walla Walla.

119. Willard Weldon McCully [John William32, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 30 March 1884 at Elgin, Union County, Oregon, and spent his earliest years there. Some time after 1893, his family moved to Lostine, Wallowa County, Oregon. By September 1904 he was attending the Normal School at Weston, Umatilla County [253, 254]. At Weston, he met Nettie Jane Read. Nettie was born at Weston 13 August 1883, daughter of Samuel Washington Read and Sarah Emerson Boring. They were married 3 July 1905 in Umatilla County [255]. The couple remained at Weston at least through early 1906 [256], but by 1910 were living at Lostine, Wallowa County, Oregon, where they were farming [257]. In 1915, they were living in La Grande, Union County, Oregon [258], and that is apparently where Willard died on 24 July 1918. He was buried in the City Cemetery at Elgin. Nettie married 2nd at Haines, Baker County, Oregon, on 25 November 1920, Knut Westrem [259]. Knut, son of Tobias Westrem and Johana Annerson Amble, was born 20 April 1885 at Bergen, Norway. He arrived in the United States with his family in 1886, and apparently settled first at Bygland, Polk County, Minnesota. They remained there until at least 1905, then moved on to North Dakota [260]. Knut was employed as a house carpenter in North Dakota in January 1920 [261]. He had to have arrived in eastern Oregon soon after that, but we have found no Oregon records of him until his marriage. About 1925, Nettie and Knut moved their family to Oakland, Alameda County,

98

California. They lived there until about 1934, with Knut employed some time as an auto mechanic and some time as a house carpenter [262]. They moved to Sonora, Tuolumne County, California after that, and Knut died there 8 May 1950. He was buried in the Mountain Shadow Cemetery at Sonora [263].

120. Elsie Viola McCully [John William32, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 23 January 1886 at Elgin, Union County, Oregon, and spent her earliest years there. Some time after 1893, her family moved to Lostine, Wallowa County, Oregon. By September 1904 she was attending the Normal School at Weston, Umatilla County [253, 254]. At Weston, she met John Adam Read. John was born at Joplin, Jasper County, Missouri, on 10 March 1882. He was the son of Samuel Washington Read and Sarah Emerson Boring, and came to Weston as an infant. Elsie and John were married in Umatilla County 31 August 1905 [264]. They settled at Weston, and in June 1908 John purchased a bakery there [265]. On 5 December 1908 at Weston, Elsie died in the aftermath of a difficult birth in which twin daughters also died [266]. She was buried in the Weston Cemetery. On 15 November 1909, in Union County, Oregon, John Read married 2nd Lenora Goodman. Lenora, daughter of Milas W. Goodman and Mary Wagner, was reportedly born at Enterprise, Wallowa County, Oregon, on 18 March 1892 [267]. John and Lenora lived in Wallowa County until at least 1911, but by 1920 had moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, where John worked as a clothes salesman [122]. In April 1924, Lenora filed for divorce [268], and on 5 November 1925, she married 2nd William Benjamin Brand. William, son of Robert B. Brand and Fannie Herrod, was born in Indian Territory (Oklahoma), 23 November 1897. He and Lenora moved from Oregon to Fresno, Fresno County, California, and later to Siskiyou County, California. William died there 24 October 1957, with Lenora following on 19 January 1968 [269]. We have not determined their burial locations. John Read continued in Portland, working mainly for a fruit packing company. He may have been married briefly to Pearl (Edwards) Jamison, but the information is so far unsatisfactory [270]. He did marry again, however, in December 1950, to

99

Madelle C. (Lindholm) Wenstrand [271]. Madelle, daughter of Theodor Lindholm and Mathilda ___, was born June 1889 at Chicago, Cook County, Illinois [272]. She was the widow of Paul W. Wenstrand, who died in 1947, and with whom she had two children [273]. Madelle died at Portland ca 24 October 1961, and was buried at Lincoln Memorial Park [274]. John died ca 13 June 1964, and was buried at the Evergreen Cemetery, McMinnville, Washington County, Oregon [275].

121. Jessie Floyd McCully [John William32, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 29 July 1893 at Elgin, Union County, Oregon. Soon after his birth, the family moved to Lostine, Wallowa County, Oregon. He lived at Lostine most of his life. On 9 April 1912 in Union County, Floyd married Nellie Bly Hill [276]. Nellie, daughter of William C. Hill and Laura Belle Crawford, was born 5 May 1895 at Summerville, Union County, Oregon. They lived together at Lostine at least through 1914, but by 1919 they had divorced and both had remarried. Nellie married 2nd on 9 April 1919, Harold Hug [277], son of David W. Hug and Mary E. Choate. They had one son ca 1923, David H. Hug [278], but divorced soon after. On 15 August 1925, Nellie married 3rd Louis C. Hale [279], who was born 1892 and died 1962. Nellie died 1975. Both are buried in the Summerville Cemetery, Union County, Oregon. Floyd McCully married 2nd on 14 December 1919, Gladys Kinney [280]. Gladys, daughter of Alexander Kinney and Isobel (Emerson?), was born 2 April 1896 at Alpena, Alpena County, Michigan. They were living in Enterprise, Wallowa County, Oregon, in January 1920, where Floyd was employed as a barber [281]. By 1922, they were at Yakima, Yakima County, Washington, and Floyd was again barbering [282]. They were in Walla Walla, Walla Walla County, Washington, in December 1922, when a daughter was born, and Floyd died there 23 January 1924 [283]. He was buried at the Mountain View Cemetery at Walla Walla. After Floyd's death, Gladys moved with her two daughters to Los Angeles, California, where she lived with her parents [284]. We have not been able to trace her after 1930. She reportedly died in Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada, 16 June 1991.

122. Ray David Gilbert [Estelle33, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 1 February 1872 at Salem, Marion County, Oregon. He lived his entire life at Salem, for much of his adult life managing a grocery store that he had purchased from his father, Andrew Gilbert [285]. After 1924, he worked for the Oregon State Highway Department, as a time-keeper and clerk [285, 286, 287]. On 15 February 1893, he married Gustav (Gussie) Steiwer. Gussie, apparently the daughter of Winlock W. Steiwer and an undetermined mother, was born 4 May 1874 in Marion County, and was raised by her grandparents, Frederick and Susan (Looney) Steiwer [288]. Ray Gilbert died at Salem 10 November 1944, of a heart attack [285]. Gussie continued to live in Salem, dying there 19 November 1958 [289]. Both are interred at the Mt. Crest Abbey mausoleum, Salem. Ray and Gussie had no children.

123. Warren B. Gilbert [Estelle33, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 16 August 1875 at Salem, Marion County, Oregon. He spent his early years in Salem, and attended Willamette University. About 1895, he reportedly hired on with his uncle, Frank D. McCully, to accompany a herd of cattle on a train to Kansas City, Missouri. In Kansas City, he was hired as a cartoonist by the Kansas City Star newspaper [290]. We haven't been able to determine how long he was in Kansas City, but he was in Denver, Colorado, by 1897. His first employment there was apparently as artist for the Denverado Engraving Company. He worked for the Denver Post from 1899 to 1905, primarily as a cartoonist for the sports pages, but he also drew editorial cartoons and occasionally wrote essays for the newspaper [291]. A trip he made to Europe April-November 1901 was the subject of several illustrated stories in the Post [292]. In 1905, Warren went to work as an artist for the Denver Times [291]. About the same time, he married Laura Hilton. Laura, daughter of Leonard John Hilton and Margaret ____, was born ca 1873, probably at Fort Collins, Larimer County, Colorado. She had been married previously, and had a daughter, Ruth, who was about 13 at the time of Laura's marriage to Warren [293]. Warren worked at Denver newspapers until ca 1910, then was employed by a number of Denver companies as an artist, including the Denver Advertising Agency and the Gates Tire Company. Laura also worked for the press, serving as librarian for the Denver Times. Later, she served as advertising manager for hotels and resorts in the Denver area, including the Hot Springs Hotel Company and Radium Springs resort [291].

101

Laura and Warren divorced ca 1930. Laura remained in Denver the rest of her life, dying there 20 June 1945. She was buried at the Fairmount Cemetery at Denver. Warren returned to Oregon, living in Salem and employed as an artist for a paper mill, the Western Paper Converting Company [286]. By 1935, he had married 2nd Bessie ______[294], and they were living in Alhambra, Los Angeles County, California [295]. Warren died there 28 December 1942 [296]; we have not determined his burial location, nor have we determined what happened to Bessie Gilbert after his death. Warren Gilbert had no children by either wife.

124. Agnes Gilbert [Estelle33, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 7 December 1883 at Salem, Marion County, Oregon. She grew up in Salem, graduated from local schools, and studied two years at Willamette University. She had an active community and society life, being mentioned frequently in the local newspapers. She was elected the Salem Grand Street Carnival Queen in 1903 [297]. On 24 February 1904 in Salem, she married Bernard Otto Schucking [298]. "Benno" Schucking was born 20 December 1871 in Baltimore, Baltimore County, Maryland [299]. His father, Constantine Schucking, had a stationery-notions store in Baltimore [300]. Constantine died 26 February 1878 [301]; his wife, Elise Sutro, remained at Baltimore at least through 1883, when her mother Rosa Sutro died, but by ca 1886 had moved her family to San Francisco, San Francisco County, California, where her brother Adolph Sutro was living [302]. In June 1889, Benno graduated from the San Francisco Boys' High School, having followed the "classical" curriculum (instead of "English") [303]. By 1895, he was traveling regularly to Sacramento, California, as well as to Portland, Oregon, buying hops for businesses in Boston, St. Louis, and perhaps elsewhere [304]. He continued as a active hops trader through at least 1914 [305], and retained interest in hop culture and commerce the rest of his life. He continued to grow hops on the Schucking farm in Polk County, Oregon [306]. The Schuckings settled in Salem. Agnes continued to be a dominant figure in the Salem social world, organizing many luncheons, teas, and benefits. In 1911 she was elected president of the Cherry City Improvement League, one of a number of such community functions. She was active with the Red Cross, and in 1931 was appointed to the Oregon Child Welfare Commission. In 1956, she was appointed to the Oregon State Fair Commission [307]. In what was clearly a unique adventure for the time, Agnes and her mother, Estelle (McCully) Gilbert, celebrated Mrs. Gilbert's 75th birthday by taking a six-week, 8,000 mile auto trip from Oregon to the East Coast and back [308]. Beginning ca 1920, after giving up his active role as a hops trader, Benno worked for the Oregon Department of Highways as an accountant and bookkeeper. Some time after 1930, he retired, and by 1935 he and Agnes had moved to a farm at Eola, Polk County [309]. Benno died there 20 July 1940 [310]. Agnes continued

102

to live at "Eola Acres," hosting an almost daily procession of teas, concerts, meetings, and weddings. A year or so before Benno's death, they had built a market for their farm products on the highway near their farm, and Agnes continued to operate the store [311]. The tasteful design, uncluttered by roadside advertising, earned Agnes an award of merit from the Oregon Federation of Garden Clubs in 1940 [312]. Agnes died in a Salem hospital 5 October 1969, following surgery on a cancerous tumor [313]. Both Agnes and Benno were buried at the Mt. Crest Abby Mausoleum in Salem. They had no children of their own, but in 1950 Agnes adopted two: Helene E. Schucking (1912 - 9 January 2000), and Robert Lee Schucking (1946 - 6 November 1969). We have not discovered any of their history.

125. Archibald David McCully [Alfred34, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 13 August 1875 in Salem, Marion County, Oregon [313]. He lived in Salem and attended Salem schools. In 1893, he moved with his parents to The Dalles, Wasco County, Oregon [314]. When his family moved back to the Willamette Valley in 1896, he stayed at The Dalles, and worked as a clerk, probably for Edward C. Pease's department store [315]. While living at The Dalles, Archie played the organ regularly for various groups and functions [316]. He was also well-known for his long bicycle rides, and for his general explorations of the surrounding area. In September 1896, he and some friends rode from The Dalles to Goldendale, Washington, and back, a distance of some 70 miles [317]. A ride and hike in that same year took him to Mill Creek Falls, a trip deemed so arduous that "the falls are therefore rarely visited" [318]. By 1903, Archie had moved to Shaniko, Wasco County, Oregon, and was working as a bookkeeper at the new branch of the Edward C. Pease Company general store. By 1905, he had been made manager of the store [319]. In 1906, he was appointed as the Shaniko postmaster [320], a position he held into 1910 [321]. Some time between 1911 and 1920, he returned to the family farm at Butteville, Clackamas County, Oregon, where he farmed the rest of his life [322, 323]. He died 12 April 1940 at the Hutchinson Hospital in Oregon City, Clackamas County, Oregon, and was buried in the Butteville Cemetery. Archie McCully never married.

126. Guy Geer McCully [Alfred34, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 31 August 1877 in Salem, Marion County, Oregon. He lived in Salem and attended Salem schools. A childhood accident caused him to lose two fingers in 1889 [324]. In 1893, he moved with his parents to The Dalles, Wasco County, Oregon [314]. While the family was living in Wasco County, he attended Mt. Angel College near Salem [325]. We haven't been able to determine how long he attended the college. By 1900, he and his parents were living on the family farm at Butteville,

103

Clackamas County, Oregon [326]. On 5 December 1908, Guy married Bertha Rader. Bertha, born 5 March 1884, at Newberg, Yamhill County, Oregon, was the daughter of Minnie Melvina Ramsey. We have not been able to identify her father. Her mother married John Rader in 1893, and Bertha was raised in their household. Guy and Bertha spent the rest of their lives at the Butteville farm. Bertha died there 4 May 1934; Guy died 26 June 1936 at the Hutchinson Hospital in nearby Oregon City. They are both buried in the Dundee Cemetery, Yamhill County, Oregon. They had no children.

127. William Wade McCully [Alfred34, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 6 September 1878 in Salem, Marion County, Oregon. He lived in Salem and attended Salem schools. In 1893, his parents moved to The Dalles, Wasco County, Oregon [314]. We assume he was with them, at least part of the time, but we have not found any specific early mention of him. His parents moved back to the family farm in Clackamas County, Oregon, in 1896. William was likely with them part of the time, as in 1902 he married a woman who in 1900 was living in nearby Yamhill County. However, we cannot find William listed in any 1900 census. About 1902, William married Luella Winona Liles. "Lulu" (sometimes, Lula), daughter of Daniel W. Liles and Volana S. Gardner, was born 4 February 1880 at Tecumseh, Johnson County, Nebraska [327]. Some time before 1890, the family moved from Nebraska to Yamhill County, Oregon [328]. Lulu's father died in 1891, and her mother married 2nd Martin J. Downs. Lulu was living with them at Newberg, Yamhill County, in June 1900 [329]. We haven't been able to trace the first few years of William's and Lulu's married life. By 1905, they were in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, where they lived throughout their marriage. Apparently, William was not always living in Portland, and they were not always shown at the same address [330]. Presumably, this was in part due to William's training in steamship operation, because by 1907 he was pilot on the steamer Lurline, operating on the Columbia River between Portland and Astoria, under Captain William E. Larkins. On 27 January 1908, Captain Larkins suffered a fatal heart attack just as the Lurline was starting on its usual run to Astoria, Oregon. Pilot McCully brought the vessel back to the Portland docks [331]. One month later, William was appointed the new Captain of the Lurline [332]. It is not surprising that William McCully chose steamship operation as a profession. He father, Albert McCully, captained steamers on the Columbia River, his grandfather David McCully had been instrumental in developing steam-boating on the Willamette River, and a number of other relatives had entered the profession. We haven't been able to determine how he prepared to qualify for the work. His debut as steamer captain had its ups and downs. On 16 July 1908, he and

104

steamer Captain Charles R. Spencer were arrested on charges of racing their ships at excessive speed in the Portland harbor [333]. They were each fined $5.00 [334]. But only a month later, William and the crew of the Lurline won a $50 first prize for being the best decorated steamer in the Astoria Regatta [335]. William's entire career was spent on the river, principally as captain of the Lurline, although he occasionally captained other vessels of the Harkins line including the Undine, Harvest Queen, and Iralda [336]. He took a long break from work in 1908-1909 during which he spent eight months touring the United States [337]. In 1910 he spent a week on the coast of Oregon, hunting game of various sorts [338]. In 1911, he suffered a prolonged illness during which "he was so sick he was given up for dead" [339]. He obviously recovered, and was given back his command of the Lurline [340]. Lulu filed for divorce in October 1922, and it was granted in December of that year [341, 342]. She married 2nd Carl A. Mittlesteadt on 28 June 1923 at Wenatchee, Chelan County, Washington [343]. Carl was reportedly born in Germany ca 1888, and is likely the Carl Mittlesteadt living at Stamford, Connecticut 1918-1921, active in the U. S. Army [344]. Lulu and Carl were living in Oakland, Alameda County, California, in 1925-1926, where Carl had a delicatessen and Lula continued her occupation as a spiritualist minister that she had begun while still married to William McCully [345]. They returned to Portland the following year and remained there, Carl working as a salesman and Lulu a pastor at the Progressive Psychic and Divine Healing Center [346]. Their residence was in Portland in 1941 when Carl died 17 May 1941, in Douglas County, Oregon. Lula moved to California ca 1944, and died in Los Angeles County (Santa Monica?) on 28 September 1961. William McCully married 2nd in 1923 or 1924, Anna E. Bayard [347]. Anna, daughter of Peter Bayard and Emma Christine Carlson, was born at Astoria in July 1884. Anna grew up at Astoria, working at various times as a stenographer, theater cashier, and bookkeeper for the Allen Wallpaper & Paint Company [348]. Apparently, she and William lived in Portland the short duration of their marriage before William died 19 September 1925 at the home of Anna's parents in Astoria [339]. Anna delayed the funeral in Portland until 27 September 1925 so that more of the river steamboat men could attend [349]. William was cremated; we have not found a cemetery marker. After William's death, Anna remained in Portland, working several years at the Meier & Frank department store, and later for the Nilsson Wallpaper Company [350]. On 10 August 1936 in Vancouver, Clark County, Washington, she married 2nd Fritz Kruze [351]. Fritz, son of Albert Kruse and Mary Inman, was born 20 March 1888 at Wilsonville, Clackamas County, Oregon. He had been employed on river boats his entire career. He had been married twice previously, first to Ruby M. Nallette (divorced) [352] and 2nd to Laura Remington (died 1935) [353]. Anna died 12 November 1946 in Portland. Her remains were transported to

105

Astoria, where a funeral was held 18 November 1946 [354]. We have not located her burial site. Fritz married a 4th time, Florence Edith (Herring) Plumb, 28 September 1948 at Astoria. He died at Chinook, Pacific County, Washington, 3 July 1955, and was buried at the Ilwaco (Washington) Cemetery [355]. Florence died at Long Beach, Pacific County, Washington, 1 December 1977. She was also buried at Ilwaco. There were no children from either of William W. McCully's marriages.

128. Wilmer David McCully [Frank35, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 10 May 1882 at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. He spent his early years at Joseph, and attended public schools there. From 1899 to 1901, he attended the Bishop Scott Academy in Portland, Oregon, graduating in June 1901, then remaining another year at the Hill Military Academy [356, 357, 358]. In addition to doing well academically, Wilmer "became known as one of the best younger football players ever seen in this city" [359]. In September 1902, he enrolled in the Sheffield Scientific School at Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, and completed his first two years. In early 1904, he was one of several young men selected to take the test to become an assistant paymaster in the U. S. Navy [360]. He traveled to Washington, D. C., to take the necessary examinations, passed them, and was subsequently nominated to the U. S. Senate, which confirmed his appointment on 31 March 1904 [361]. In early April 1904, Wilmer suffered a life-threatening illness and was confined to hospital for some time [362]. There was some question as to whether he would recover enough to physically qualify for active military duty, but the position was held open for him into May 1904 [363]. It isn't clear if he was ultimately deemed unfit, or if he decided to decline the position; in any event, he returned to Oregon without taking the paymaster commission or completing his studies at Yale. Back in Oregon in 1905, Wilmer worked for a short time as a travel agent for the Morgan Mercantile Agency in Portland [364]. He soon returned to his home at Joseph, and began work at the First Bank of Joseph. He was cashier there until 1912 [365], and was elected to the bank's board of directors in 1908 [366]. On 24 December 1908 at La Grande, Oregon, Wilmer married Martha Louise Cohoon. Martha, daughter of Stewart L. Cohoon and Nellie M. Brand, was born in January 1885 in Nevada, probably at Battle Mountain, Lander County [367]. She lived with her parents at Battle Mountain until ca 1895, at which time the family moved to Sacramento, Sacramento County, California [368]. About 1903, they relocated to Walla Walla, Walla Walla County, Washington [369, 370]. Within the next few years, they moved to La Grande, Union County, Oregon, where by the time of her marriage Martha had advanced to principal telephone operator for the local office of Pacific States Telephone [371]. Wilmer and Martha lived at Joseph until 1912, when illness made it necessary for Wilmer to give up his bank position. They moved to La Grande, where Wilmer

106 died on 19 December 1916 [372]. He was buried in the Hillcrest Cemetery at La Grande. After Wilmer's death, Martha lived with her parents in La Grande, and became chief operator for Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company [373]. Her father died 7 October 1925, and Martha and her mother stayed on until 1939 [374, 375]. By April 1940, they both had moved to St. Helens, Columbia County, Oregon, where Martha was again employed as chief operator in the local office of Bell Telephone [376]. Nellie Cohoon died at St. Helens 12 September 1942. Martha died in late June 1945, and last rites were performed at the Portland Crematorium and Mausoleum [377, 378]. Wilmer and Martha had no children.

129. Elmo L. McCully [Frank35, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 23 July 1884 at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. He died there 13 December 1888, and was buried at the Hurricane Creek Cemetery near Joseph.

130. Roy Calvert McCully [Frank35, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 8 October 1887 at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. He spent his early years at Joseph, then attended Oregon Agricultural College (Corvallis, Oregon), completing two years in 1906 and 1907. He was enrolled in the Mining Engineering curriculum [379]. After leaving school, he spent some time in Portland, Oregon, living with his sister Lelia Ballinger and her husband, and working as a mail weigher (probably with the railroad, like his brother-in-law) [210]. He returned to Joseph, became manager of the local movie theater [380] and worked with his father, Frank McCully, in their family sheep-raising business [381]. His next years are uncertain. According to the record accompanying his burial at the Willamette National Cemetery, he served in the U. S. Navy beginning 7 October 1911. We have not uncovered any specifics concerning this service. The next record we have of him is from 20 November 1916 in Portland, when he married Johanna Egeland [382]. "Jennie," daughter of Aanen Egeland and Johanna ____, was born ca 1880 in Norway, possibly at Lyngdal, Vest-Adger [383]. She could be the Jennie Egeland who arrived in New York City from Norway in June 1913, who was returning to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, where she had previously resided [384]. She is likely the Jennie Egeland who obtained a Portland, Oregon, marriage license with Harry K. Repass in December 1913 [385]. However, we cannot identify her with certainty until 1915, when she and her sister Mollie Egeland were living in Portland, with Jennie employed as a dressmaker [386]. Soon after their marriage, Roy and Jennie left Portland for Joseph, Oregon, where Roy once again worked with his father on their various merchandising and livestock ventures [387]. In September 1918, Roy was called to military training at Camp Lewis, Washington [388]. If he did report, the training was short, for by Christmas 1919, they had been living in Cambridge, Washington County, Idaho,

107

long enough for Roy to be appointed to the school board [389]. Roy had moved there to manage the Sallubria Valley Milling Company's warehouse and flour mill, a McCully venture in which Roy's father was a principal stockholder. They lived at Cambridge at least into late December 1922, when a fire at the mill burned it to the ground [390, 391]. The mill was not rebuilt, and presumably Roy and Jennie moved back to Oregon. Some time after 1922, Roy and Jennie separated. No divorce decree has been found, and Jennie retained her married name until her death, but we haven't found any indication of them being together after Cambridge, Idaho. Both disappear from the record until 1929, when Roy was in Portland, employed as a salesman. He apparently spent most of the rest of his life in Portland, sometimes living with his sister and brother-in-law, and variously employed as a salesman and electrician [392, 393, 394, 395]. We have not been able to identify Jennie in any census, city directory, or other record from 1922 until November 1948, when she was returning to Seattle, Kings County, Washington, from a visit to Norway [396, 397]. Through the 1950s, she lived in Seattle, working much of this time for the Snow Flake Laundry [398]. She died at Seattle 15 January 1959, and was buried there at Forest Lawn Cemetery. Roy died at Portland 21 May 1965, and was buried there at the Willamette National Cemetery. Roy and Jennie had no children.

131. Lelia McCully [Frank35, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born in November 1889 at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. She spent her childhood at Joseph, and married there 2 November 1909 to William Hardy Ballinger [399]. William, son of John W. Ballinger and Margaret Ann Davidson, was born 26 April 1886 at Hutchinson, Reno County, Kansas [400]. He moved with his family to McMinnville, Yamhill County, by 1895, perhaps as early as 1889 [401]. At the time of his marriage, Harry was mail clerk on the railroad between La Grande, Oregon, and Pocatello, Idaho. Within a few months of their wedding, he had transferred to a railroad mail clerk position out of Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, serving on the railroad run from Portland south to Ashland, Oregon, and Dunsmuir, California [402]. After 1915, his and Lelia's home base was Portland until at least 1950 [210, 393, 403, 404]. Some time after 1950, William and Lelia moved to California. William died 15 November 1967 at Yucaipa, San Bernardino County, California [405]. We have not determined his burial location. Leila married 2nd Henry L. Neely on 12 December 1969 in Riverside County [406]. Henry was born 27 April 1895 in Kentucky; we have not identified his parents, or any details of his life. He died 6 December 1976, at Palm Springs, Riverside County, age 81; Lelia died 17 February 1977, probably at Palm Springs [405]. We don't know where either was interred. William and Lelia (McCully) Ballinger had no children.

108

132. Raymond O. Dunbar, son of Frank D. McCully’s second wife Martha E. Van Vactor and her first husband Oron Dunbar, was born 7 July 1894 at Goldendale, Klickitat County, Washington. He lived with his parents at Goldendale until 1903; lived in Portland, Oregon, for perhaps a year; then moved to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon [407, 408]. When his parents divorced ca 1907, he lived for awhile with his grandparents, Daniel and Margaret Dunbar, at Fairview, Multnomah County, Oregon [409]. After his father settled at Lakeview, Lake County, Oregon in 1910, Raymond lived with him and attended school in Lakeview, then spent the summers with his mother in northern Oregon [410, 411, 412, 413]. As Raymond was leaving for Portland in June 1913, he found he had been nominated to become a midshipman in the U. S. Navy. He took an examination in Grants Pass, Oregon on 5 June 1913 [414]. He either did not qualify, or he declined the offer, as he returned to school in Lakeview that fall. In April 1914, he left for Portland to "take a position in a power plant" [415]. Raymond enlisted in the Army in April 1917 [416], and was assigned to the 65th Artillery. They shipped overseas in March 1918, served in France through 1918 [417], and returned to the United States in January 1919. His release from the Army occurred 20 January 1919, probably at Fort Dix, New Jersey [418]. His actions from there are uncertain, but in February 1920 he was living at Beloit, Rock County, Wisconsin [419]. Also at Beloit was Pearl Caroline King, who Raymond married in nearby Rockford, Winnebago County, Illinois, on 22 May 1920 [420]. Pearl, daughter of Claude T. King and Emma H. Seifert, was born at Baraboo, Sauk County, Wisconsin, on 29 September 1901 [421, 422]. The family moved from Baraboo to Beloit between 1905 [423] and 1910 [424]. At the time of her marriage to Raymond, she was employed as a threader in a linen mill [419]. We have been unable to trace Raymond and Pearl from February 1921 when a daughter was born in Winnebago County, Illinois, to April 1930 when the family was living at Beaverton, Washington County, Oregon, with Raymond employed with the railroad [425]. By 1933, they had moved to Oakland, Alameda County. Raymond and Pearl remained in Alameda County the rest of their lives, usually residing in Oakland but part of the time in Alameda. Raymond worked in various capacities for the Southern Pacific Railroad until his retirement in the 1960s [426]. Pearl died at Oakland 17 December 1948; we have not located her burial site. On 26 September 1950, in Alameda County, Raymond married 2nd Bonnie Myrtle Thomas. Bonnie, daughter of Norman Benton Thomas and Lucinda Bradford, was born 6 July 1902, in either Fannin or Gilmer county, Georgia [427]. She was first married to Everett Robert Dillard in Polk County, Tennessee, in 1921. They had one son, Everett A. Dillard (1922-2003). They moved to San Diego, California, in the mid-1920s, where they divorced ca 1935 [428, 429]. Her location and situation between 1940 and 1950 is unknown to us [430]. Raymond Dunbar died in Oakland, California, 16 September 1973, and was

109

buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Oakland. Bonnie died 2 May 1988 at Vallejo, Solano County, California. She was buried at Evergreen Cemetery, also.

Child of Raymond Dunbar and Pearl King: 274. Mildred Elizabeth Dunbar [431] (5 February 1921 - 21 February 1991).

133. Lucille Dunbar, daughter of Frank D. McCully’s second wife Martha E. Van Vactor and her first husband Oron Dunbar, was born 20 August 1897 at Goldendale, Klickitat County, Washington. She lived with her parents at Goldendale until 1903; lived in Portland, Oregon, for perhaps a year; then moved to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon [407, 408]. After her parents divorced ca 1907, it isn't clear where she was and what she was doing. She isn't identifiable in either the 1910 or 1920 censuses. Reportedly, she was teaching school at Joseph ca 1918 [432]. However, as she was scheduled to graduate from the Oregon Normal School (teacher training college) at Monmouth, Polk County, Oregon, in January 1920 [433], it is unlikely she would have been at Joseph during the school years in 1917 to 1919. Lucille was "of Joseph" when in April 1920 she was contracted to teach school in Medford, Jackson County, Oregon [434]. If she went to Medford, it was for a short time. Early in the 1920s she moved to Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, where she studied music at the Bush Conservatory of Music [435]. About 1924, she married Charles Mitchell Mixer at Chicago. Charles, son of Charles B. Mixer and Viola Frost, was born at Chicago on 23 July 1891 [436]. Already an accomplished violinist in his late teens, he traveled widely through the 1920s and 1930s with a trio, and sometimes quartet, of musicians. By 1925, Lucille was his wife and a part of his trio, and was reportedly a gifted pianist and performer of "pianologues" (humorous monologues to piano accompaniment) [437]. Lucille and Charles moved from Chicago to Portland, Oregon, ca 1934, where they continued to give musical performances and also both taught music at the Todd School of Vocational Arts [438, 439]. About 1937, they divorced, and Charles went back to Chicago [440]. They had no children. On 23 July 1938 in Skamania County, Washington, Lucille married 2nd Bruce Clemens Kellogg [441]. Bruce, son of Frank Eugene Kellogg and Emily Louise Pulford, was born 13 May 1890 at Savanna, Carroll County, Illinois [442]. The family lived at Savanna until sometime after 1900 [443], then moved to Eugene, Lane County, Oregon by 1910 [444]. Bruce lived at Eugene until ca 1915, working in a lumber mill and as a clerk. By 1917, he had moved to Portland, Oregon, and had begun a life-long career with the U. S. Army Corps of , stationed at Portland. He married 1st in Pierce County, Washington, on 16 January 1920, Ailene B. Dunbar of Tacoma, Washington [445]. They divorced some time after 1930 [446].

110

Bruce Kellogg died at Woodburn, Marion County, Oregon, on 1 July 1974. We have not located his burial site. Lucille died in Portland on 25 February 1981, and was interred at the Riverview Abbey Mausoleum [447].

Child of Bruce Kellogg and Lucille Dunbar: 275. Bruce Clemens Kellogg, Jr. (20 June 1940 - 24 September 2004).

134. Frank David McCully II [Frank35, David12, John3, Samuel1] was born 1 June 1914 at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. He grew up in Joseph, then attended the Eastern Oregon Normal School at La Grande, Oregon (now, Eastern Oregon University) and Oregon State College in Corvallis [448]. On 28 October 1937, he married Bernice M. Winings. Bernice, daughter of Norman A. Winings and Rubie Ann Johnson, was born 9 November 1914 at Lostine, Wallowa County, Oregon. She grew up at Lostine, attended high school there, and later graduated from business school in Spokane, Washington [449]. Like his father, F. D. McCully, Frank was active in business and community affairs in Wallowa County. In 1940, he and his mother, Martha, owned and operated a sweet shop in Joseph, with Bernice handling the soda fountain business [450]. His principal business in Joseph was in selling and servicing heavy equipment and automobiles [451], but he also had a retail lumber business and was operator and part-owner of the Rainbow movie theater [452]. As a mayor of Joseph and president of the local chamber of commerce, he diligently promoted Joseph and the Wallowa Valley [453, 454], resulting in him being named the Junior Citizen of Wallowa County in 1947 [455], and outstanding citizen of Joseph for 1949 [456]. Frank and Bernice divorced ca 1952, and both remarried. Bernice married 2nd on 18 October 1956 Luther E. Thornburgh. Luther was born 22 November 1916, but we have not determined his parentage. He and Bernice lived on a ranch in the Wallowa Valley, with Luther dying there 17 April 1998 and Bernice 7 October 2005 [449]. They are buried in the Enterprise Cemetery. Frank McCully married 2nd Freda Anne Hamilton in 1953. "Ann," daughter of Henry Lee Hamilton and Minnie Buchanan, was born at Tucumcari, Quay County, New Mexico, on 21 November 1918 [457, 458]. By 1930, her family had moved to Long Beach, Los Angeles County, California [459], where Ann attended Long Beach Polytechnic High School and Compton Junior College. We haven't been able to trace her movements with certainty after 1935, but she is almost certainly the "Miss Freda Hamilton" whose name appeared regularly in Portland, Oregon newspapers between 1941 and 1946, associated with the Junior Business and Professional Women's Club. We don't know how she and Frank met, or where they married. Frank and Ann were living in Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada in 1954 [461],

111

but by 1956 were in Medford, Jackson County, Oregon, where Frank had planned to reestablish his automotive equipment business [462]. They moved by 1958, this time north to Eugene, Lane County, Oregon, where Frank identified himself as the branch manager of McCully Automotive Equipment Company [463]. As he had done in eastern Oregon, he branched out into other businesses and community endeavors, including developing a car wash in Eugene [464] and a mobile truck washing service [464]. In 1968, he had control of two Taco-time restaurant franchises in Eugene that he was offering for sale [465]. Frank and Ann had some real estate business in Eugene [466], but it was not until 1974 that they established McCully Realty in Woodburn, Marion County, Oregon. Frank died at Woodburn 23 August 1997. A funeral was held at Woodburn, then another at Joseph, Oregon, where he was buried in the Prairie Creek Cemetery [467]. Ann continued to live in Woodburn, and continued to be associated with the realty. She died there 2 August 2008 [458]. She was interred at the Belle Passi Mausoleum at Woodburn. Frank and Ann had no children.

Children of Frank McCully and Bernice Winings: 276. Son McCully (1939 -) 277. Son McCully (1941 -) 278. Son McCully

135. Sue Crane, daughter of William Bradford Crane and his first wife Mary Williams, was born ca 1859 in Missouri, likely at either Independence, Jackson County, or St. Louis, St. Louis County. She died in 1861 at Pilot Knob, Iron County, Missouri [468].

136. Mary Louise Crane, daughter of William Bradford Crane and his first wife Mary Louisa Williams, was born 5 August 1861 at Pilot Knob, Iron County, Missouri. At the death of her mother, she moved with her father almost immediately to Canton, Lewis County, Missouri [468]. He departed for the Montana mines in June 1862, leaving Mary in the care of her maternal grandmother, Louisa (Cecil) (Williams) Staples, and her mother's sister Ella (Williams) Clusky [469]. Some time after 1870, Mary began making trips to the West to stay with her father and step-mother, Alice Jane (McCully) Crane. While on the Pacific coast, she lived in San Francisco and Oakland, California, and Salem, Oregon (and perhaps at some of her father's other mining locations), but still spent part of her time in Missouri until at least 1876. Apparently, she didn’t move West permanently until ca 1877. On a visit to Salem, Marion County, Oregon ca 1875, she first met Samuel W. Church, who lived near Mary’s grandfather, Asa A. McCully, and whose father was

112

a business associate of her grandfather [470]. She married Samuel in San Francisco, San Francisco County, California, 27 March 1881. Samuel W. Church was born 13 February 1857 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. He was the son of Stephen T. Church and Elizabeth Lister. His family moved to Salem, Marion County, Oregon before June 1870 [471, 472]. After his marriage to Mary, the couple lived in Salem until ca 1883, when they moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon [473]. There he was a partner in a company making woven wire mattresses, first called Church & Durkee, and later Thomas K. Abbott and Samuel W. Church [474]. Samuel Church died in Portland 26 November 1901, of a rare heart malfunction. He was buried in the Riverview Cemetery [475]. Mary continued to live in Portland with their two daughters, finally dying there 28 September 1949. She was buried at Riverview Cemetery, as well [473].

Children of Samuel Church and Mary Crane: 279. Church child (ca 1883 - died young ) 280. Ruth M. Church (1885 - 26 February 1985) 281. Genevieve L. Church (5 April 1886 – 4 April 1967)

137. Clarence Crane [Alice Jane41, Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 28 November 1872 in Salem, Marion County, Oregon [476]. He spent most of his childhood in Salem and in Oakland, Alameda County, California, but also lived at times in Virginia City, Storey County, Nevada; Copper City, Shasta County, California; and possibly Baker County, Oregon [477, 478, 479]. His father died in 1879, and by ca 1885 he had moved with his mother and siblings from Salem to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon. He reportedly attended grammar school but not high school, needing to help support the family by working in a dry goods store and a men’s clothing store. About 1895, Clarence moved to Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, and was accepted into the Boston University School of Medicine. To pay his way, he sold insurance for Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company, among other jobs. He graduated with his Medical Doctorate in 1900 [480]. On 18 June 1900 in Boston, he married another School of Medicine graduate, Stella Spaulding Howard. Stella Howard was born 25 August 1874 in Boston, the daughter of Daniel Howard and Georgianna Weatherbee. She attended Boston schools, and in 1894 graduated from the Girls’ Latin School (now, Boston Latin Academy). She attended Dana Hall School, and also Wellesley College for one year, then enrolled in Boston University School of Medicine, from which she graduated with her Medical Doctorate in 1900, in the same class with Clarence Crane [480].

After their graduation and marriage, Clarence and Stella lived in Boston, and both practiced medicine there. About 1902, Clarence was named superintendent of the Burrage Hospital for Crippled Children, established on Bumpkin Island in Boston Harbor [481]. He also served as first assistant surgeon at Massachusetts Homeopathic Hospital, was a physiology instructor at Boston University School of

114

Medicine, and acted as medical examiner for the Boston Mutual Life Insurance Company [480]. Some time after 1910, the family bought a farm at Dennisport, Barnstable County, Massachusetts. Stella gave up active medical practice at that time and lived with the family at the farm, while Clarence maintained his medical practices in Boston. They later moved to the Howard family farm at Dover (Pigan Hill, Natick area), Middlesex County, Massachusetts, where they lived until 1930 [482, 483]. The family left Massachusetts in 1930 and moved to Fernbridge, Humboldt County, California. There, Clarence practiced medicine for a few years with Dr. H. W. Comfort, and served as first president of the Humboldt County Tuberculosis Association. He had retired from medical practice when he died in Fernbridge 13 April 1942 [484]. Stella continued to live in Fernbridge until 1948, when she moved to nearby Ferndale, Humboldt County, California, where she died 18 November 1968 [485]. Both Clarence and Stella are buried at the Pioneer Cemetery at Salem, Marion County, Oregon.

138. Ethel Linnie Crane [Alice Jane41, Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 29 May 1874 in Salem, Marion County, Oregon. She spent most of her childhood in Salem and in Oakland, Alameda County, California, but also lived at times in Virginia City, Storey County, Nevada; Copper City, Shasta County, California; and possibly Baker County, Oregon [477, 478, 479]. Her father died in 1879, and by ca 1885 she had moved with her mother and siblings from Salem to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon. In Portland 11 September 1895, she married Percy Pope Dabney [486]. Percy, the son of William Pope Dabney and Leila Madison, was born 25 November 1866 at Jefferson (Spencer Township), Powhatan County, Virginia. He attended public schools in Virginia until he was sixteen, then was privately tutored in law by his father, county judge for Powhatan and Cumberland counties. In 1887, he took a summer course in law at the University of Virginia, and in 1888 was admitted to the Virginia bar. He came west to Oregon in 1890, and was admitted to the Oregon bar in 1892 [487]. Ethel and Percy lived in Portland, Oregon, for 30 years, where Percy continued in the legal profession. He was never in general legal practice, but specialized in land title law, most of the time with the firm of Wood, Montague, Matthiesson and

115

Rankin [488]. In 1926 the family moved to Beverly Hills, Los Angeles County, California, where Percy continued in the legal profession. He died in Beverly Hills 18 March 1935 [488]. About 1936, Ethel moved to Seattle, Kings County, Washington, to live with the family of her daughter, Alice M. (Dabney) Moores. She died there 5 May 1968 [489]. Both Percy and Ethel were buried at the Pioneer Cemetery in Salem, Marion County, Oregon.

Child of Percy Dabney and Ethel Crane: 288. Alice Madison Dabney (29 October 1896 – 10 June 1977)

139. William Bradford Crane Jr. [Alice Jane41, Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 29 June 1879 at Salem, Marion County, Oregon. His father had died two months before William was born, and by ca 1885 William had moved with his mother and siblings from Salem to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon. He attended public schools in Portland, then ca 1900 he went to Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, where he stayed two years. He returned to Portland in 1902, and established W. B. Crane and Company, suppliers of equipment for the manufacturing of carbonated beverages. The company eventually established branch offices in Seattle, Washington (1922), and in San Francisco and Los Angeles, California (1926) [490]. In Portland on 7 June 1905, William married Lillian Lewis. Lillian, the daughter of Harry Romeo Lewis and Mary A. Felch, was born 24 June 1882 in Oregon (probably Portland). At the time of their marriage, she was a bookkeeper. About 1929, the family moved to Beverly Hills, Los Angeles County, California, where William continued with his beverage supply business [491]. By 1934, they were living in Westwood, Los Angeles County, and by about 1942 had settled at Pasadena, Los Angeles County [492]. Lillian died at Pasadena 24 March 1962 [493], followed by William 25 June 1967 [494]. Both were buried at the Pioneer Cemetery in Salem, Marion County, Oregon.

Children of William B. Crane and Lillian Lewis: 289. Walton Bradford Crane (12 March 1906 – 2 October 1986) 290. Ethel Lewis Crane (11 November 1907 – 27 November 1965) 291. William Bradford Crane (30 April 1915 – 9 January 1974)

140. Alice Louise Croasman [Mary Melissa42, Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 2 January 1881 in Salem, Marion County, Oregon. She lived with her parents in Salem until 1887, when they moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon. In 1900, she married William Worthington Harder. The marriage took place in Seattle, King County, Washington, on 12 April 1900 [495]. William Harder, son of William Harder and Louisa Worthington, was born in Quebec, Canada, 30 April 1877. His father was associated with the Canadian

116 railroads and the family moved several times: to Winnipeg, Manitoba, ca 1881 and to St. Albans, Ontario, by 1891 [496, 497]. About 1894, they moved to Portland, Multnomah County, where William's father was in charge of the first office of the Great Northern Railway in the Pacific Northwest [498]. Just prior to his marriage to Alice, William had been serving with Company H of the Oregon Volunteers in the Philippines. He enlisted as a private in April 1898, was promoted to corporal and served as secretary to General Otis in the Philippines, and was mustered out in San Francisco in August 1899 [499, 500]. At the time of their marriage, he was working as a railroad ticket agent, spending part of his time in Seattle and part in Portland. Later, in Portland, he was a partner in Schaefer and Harder, agents for the Southern Mutual Investment Company [501]. By October 1906, he was in Los Angeles and apparently expected to remain there [502], but by 1908 they were in Seattle, where William worked for the Campbell-Sanford-Henley Grain Company. Alice and William lived in Seattle until ca 1914, at which time they divorced. William married 2nd at Vancouver, Clark County, Washington on 17 April 1915 Maud Laura Stratton [503]. Maud, daughter of Thomas G. Stratton and Laura Balch, was born July 1880 near Port Angeles, Clallam County, Washington Territory, where her parents were keepers of the Ediz Hook lighthouse [504, 505, 506]. Her father died 15 May 1885, and on 6 January 1894 at Port Townsend, Jefferson County, Washington, her mother married 2nd Robert Hall [507]. Maud lived with them at Port Townsend in 1900 [506], and at Seattle in 1910 [508]. She was employed as a telephone operator at both locations. William and Maud lived in Seattle until 1917, then moved to Portland, where William continued to work mainly as an agent for buying and selling grain. They lived in Portland at least through 1935, but by 1940 had relocated to Scio, Linn County, Oregon, where they farmed [509]. Maud died 5 February 1942 in Portland [510]; we did not discover where she was interred. William's life after Maud's death is unclear. He died 10 December 1960 in San Diego, San Diego County, California [511], but we don't know if he was living there at the time. His burial location is uncertain [512]. After her divorce from William Harder, Alice married in 1915 George Walter Dustin Jr. [513]. George, son of George Dustin and Louisa J. Gault, was born 1 September 1877 at Rawlins, Carbon County, Wyoming. His mother died at, or shortly after, his birth; his father, a railroad conductor, left him for at least two years in Rawlins, in the care of G. C. Smith, a lawyer, and his wife Clarissa [514]. We found no other record of George during his early years; by 1885, his father was in Portland and had married 2nd Nellie C. Moore. Presumably, George had reunited with his father by that time. Alice and George remained in the Portland area throughout their married life. As he had done before marriage, George worked in various capacities for the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company. He also worked for the Crown Zellerbach

117

Company, for a ship builder, and for the Portland fire department. After ca 1930, he was a jailor for the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office. Both George and Alice were Christian Science practitioners [515]. George died 22 September 1943 in Oakland, Alameda County, California, while on a trip to San Francisco [515]. We have not determined where he was interred. At some point after George's death, Alice had moved from the Portland area to Cottage Grove, Lane County, Oregon, where she was living when on 23 April 1948 at Stevenson, Skamania County, Washington, she married Burges Bales Beazley [516, 517]. Burges Beazley, son of Thomas I. Beazley and Sarah A. Witt, was born 27 January 1877 at Brunswick, Chariton County, Missouri [518]. He had married 1st in Whitman County, Washington, on 10 February 1898, Stella May Baldwin [519]. They divorced in 1921. They had been farming at Antelope, Wasco County, Oregon, in 1930. By 1930, he was living in Portland, working as a carpenter and building caretaker. Alice died in Portland 10 November 1953; last rites were handled by the Portland Memorial Crematorium and Mausoleum [520]. Burges died 6 March 1959, and was buried in the Green Hills Cemetery, Burlington, Skagit County, Washington.

Children of William Harder and Alice L. Croasman (adopted by George Dustin): 292. Helen Harder Dustin (10 December 1908 - 20 February 1990) 293. John Allen Dustin (1 January 1911 - 9 September 1978)

141. Lillian Croasman [Mary Melissa42, Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 18 December 1885 in Salem, Marion County, Oregon. She lived with her parents in Salem until 1887, when they moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon. She had for a vocal music teacher a noted local contralto, Mrs. Walter Reed, and in her teens was performing locally [521, 522]. In October 1906, her parents took her to New York City to begin formal vocal training [523]. She was almost immediately successful obtaining parts in light opera and summer stock, and over the next few years performed regularly in locations such as New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Missouri [524, 525, 526]. She was selected as prima donna by the St. Louis, Missouri municipal stock company in 1920 [527]. In February 1914 in New York City, Lillian had married Charles S. Sinclair. Charles, who was born 11 December 1873, reportedly in Indiana [528], had been acting and directing musicals on both the West and East coasts since at least 1895 [529, 530]. We have been unable to uncover other details of his early life. Lillian and Charles traveled throughout the eastern United States with their work, but apparently returned regularly to New York City. Lillian appears to have retired from the stage sometime in the 1920s, and in 1940 was employed as a clerk in an advertising firm [528]. Charles directed an occasional play during the

118

1930s, and was "coaching" one production as late as 1940 [531]. Charles died 1 November 1958 in Staten Island, New York [532]. Lillian apparently moved to California at some point, and died at La Jolla, San Diego County, on 7 October 1978 [533]. We haven't discovered either's interment site. Charles Sinclair and Lillian Croasman had no children.

142. Allen B. Croasman Jr. [Mary Melissa42, Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 6 September 1890 in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon. He grew up in Portland, attending public schools there, then completing three years at Oregon Agricultural College (now, Oregon State University). He was employed at Neustadter Bros., a Portland men's clothing store, when he died of heart problems 16 November 1909 [534]. His place of interment is unknown to us.

143. Eula Frances McCully [John43, Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 3 September 1881 at Salem, Marion County, Oregon. Later that same year the family moved to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. They returned to Salem in late 1884, lived there until 1889, then moved back to Joseph [535, 536]. Eula lived at home until ca 1899 [537], when she enrolled in St. Helens Hall, an Episcopal girls' school in Portland, Oregon. She graduated in June 1901 [538], then returned to her family home in Joseph. She lived there until 1907, when her parents purchased a fruit orchard near Hood River, Hood River County, Oregon [539]. They lived at the Hood River ranch until Eula's mother died in December 1929, after which she and her father returned to Salem [540, 541]. Eula assisted her father managing an apartment house in Salem, and worked as a salesperson in a retail dress shop [542, 543]. She remained in Salem after his death, but apparently made regular visits to family and friends in California, Oregon, and Washington. She died 4 November 1968 at the Virginia Mason Hospital, Seattle, King County, Washington, probably while visiting with relatives there [544]. She was buried at the Pioneer Cemetery in Salem, Oregon. Eula never married.

144. Russell Alfred McCully [John43, Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 16 July 1886 at Salem, Marion County, Oregon. He lived with his family at Salem until 1889, then moved to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon [535, 536]. He spent his early years at Joseph, attending public school there, until 1903-1904 when he was enrolled at the Hill Military Academy in Portland, Oregon [545]. He then attended Oregon Agricultural College (now, Oregon State University) at Corvallis, Benton County, Oregon, graduating in 1909 with a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture [546]. After graduation, he went to Hood River, Hood River County, Oregon, where his family had moved in 1907 [539]. He worked there with his parents in their fruit orchards. On 17 September 1913 at Albany, Linn County, Oregon, Russell married Ielleen

Allanna Leech [547]. Ielleen, daughter of David Hervey Leech and Fannie W. Wright, was born 25 August 1890 at Rutledge (Grass Valley), Sherman County, Oregon. Her father was a Methodist minister, and the family moved to new churches a number of times during Ielleen's childhood. In late October 1895, they moved from Rutledge to Antelope, Wasco County, Oregon [548], then ca 1900 to North Yamhill (now, Yamhill), Yamhill County, Oregon; to Salem, Marion County, Oregon, in 1902; to Woodburn, Marion County, in June 1904 [549]; Grant's Pass, Josephine County, Oregon, ca 1909; and Albany, Oregon, ca 1912 [550]. Part of the time Ielleen's family was living at Grant's Pass, she was at Corvallis, Benton County, Oregon, attending the Oregon Agricultural College. She graduated from there in 1911 with a degree in Domestic Science and Art [546]. Russell and Ielleen met while both were attending the college. After their marriage, Russell returned to Hood River with Ielleen, where they worked as orchardists through 1917. They moved to Sandpoint, Bonner County, Idaho, where Russell was employed February through July 1918 as an agricultural extension agent for the University of Idaho [551]. The Smith-Hughes National Vocational Education Act of 1917 provided Federal funding and support for establishing agricultural curricula in high schools, and in 1918 Russell was selected to begin such a program in the high school at Enterprise, Wallowa County [552, 555]. He held that position into 1922, then was hired as principal and teacher of math, physics and agriculture at the high school at Melba, Canyon County, Idaho [554, 555]; Ielleen served as a substitute teacher during that period [556, 557]. During the years they lived at Melba, Russell was also pursuing a degree in vocational education from the Oregon Agricultural College. This was awarded in 1924 [546]. In 1925, they left Melba for Eagle, Ada County, Idaho, where Russell served as superintendent of schools until 1928 [553]. In August 1928, he was selected to be registrar for Willamette University at Salem, Marion County, Oregon [552]. He served there only one year, then was dismissed [558, 559]. They then moved to Lincoln County, Oregon, where Russell taught high school in Yachats 1929-1930 [560], then served as high school principal and superintendent of schools in Newport 1930-1934 [561]. Russell's last educational assignment was as Crook County, Oregon, superintendent of schools, a position he held 1935-1938 [553]. He and Ielleen retired to the Hood River ranch, where Russell died 4 November 1954. He was buried at Pine Grove Butte Cemetery, Hood River [562]. Ielleen stayed at the Hood River orchards for several years after Russell's death, then on 7 March 1957 married George Allen Nelson [563]. George, son of Cornelius Nelson and Anna Sutherland, was born 31 January 1882 at Sonora, Tuolumne County, California. He had moved with his parents to Oregon before 1900, and had married Clarice Dixon in Marion County 1 September 1910. They lived at a number of locations in Washington and Oregon, with George employed as an agricultural extension agent. They had four children. They had moved to

120

Saint Helens, Columbia County, Oregon, in the 1920s, where Clarice died 29 December 1953. She was buried at the Yankton Hillcrest Cemetery at Saint Helens [564]. Ielleen moved to Saint Helens with George, and they lived there until George's death 28 July 1961. He was buried in the Yankton cemetery [565]. Ielleen remained at Saint Helens, and on 17 June 1965 married Raymond Kaylor Slauson [566]. Raymond, son of Frederick D. Slauson and Martha E. Kaylor, was born 1 March 1890 at Monticello, Jones County, Iowa. In Monticello in 1910, he married Christie M. Starks. They moved with Raymond's parents ca 1918 to Carbon County, Montana, where he and his father farmed. Before 1928, they had moved to Lane County, Oregon, where Fred Slauson continued to farm, while Raymond worked as a movie film operator in Eugene, Oregon. He continued in that profession after the families moved to Saint Helens, Columbia County, Oregon about 1929, and was a projectionist at the Columbia Theater in Saint Helens in 1942. We found no specific records of his occupation after that. Christie Slauson died at Saint Helens 9 June 1963. She was buried at Riverside Cemetery, Albany, Linn County, Oregon [567]. Ielleen and Raymond lived at Saint Helens until Raymond's death 26 November 1976. He was buried at the Riverside Cemetery, Albany, Oregon, with his parents and first wife Christie. About 1980, Ielleen moved to a nursing home at Wenatchee, Chelan County, Washington, where she died 11 January 1983. She was buried at the Pine Grove Butte Cemetery, Hood River, Oregon.

145. Sara Katherine McCully [Abe47, Asa13, John3, Samuel1] was born 6 September 1893 at Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon. She grew up in Portland, attending Portland Academy for girls [568], then going on to Oaksmere finishing school, New Rochelle, New York [569, 570]. From early life, she was very active in the Portland social scene, and from 1913 into the 1920s there were few days when her name did not appear in the newspaper society pages. On 20 July 1921 at Portland, Sara married Walter Scott Redfield [571]. Scott (he seldom identified himself as Walter), son of Charles C. Redfield and Emma L. Williams [572], was born 8 October 1884, probably at Lawrenceville, Tioga County, Pennsylvania [573]. Within a year or so, his family moved to Covington, Tioga County, where he spent his childhood [574]. He studied pharmacy, apparently first in Philadelphia [575, 576], but graduated from the University of Buffalo (Buffalo, New York) in 1905 [577, 578]. After graduation, he worked at drug stores in Penn Yann, New York [579] and Connellsville, Pennsylvania [580]. Then, in late 1909, he moved to Lewiston, Nez Perce County, Idaho, to manage a pharmacy there [581, 582]. By 1911, he was in Portland, Oregon, working for

121

Powers and Estes, druggists [583]. By 1914, Scott had left the pharmacy trade and was working as a clerk for Portland Railway, Light and Power. About 1921, he gained employment as a bond salesman for the investment bankers, Blyth, Witter & Company. He left the company in 1924 and, with Berwick B. Wood, started Redfield and Wood, their own investment brokerage company. The partnership lasted until 1930, the end precipitated by the 1929 stock market crash and ensuing Great Depression [584]. After that, Scott had a variety of jobs, including dam construction inspector for Bonneville Power Administration [585] and administrator for the U. S. Employment Service [586]. Scott died 6 August 1948 as a result of a car crash in Marion County, Oregon. His body was taken to the Weddle funeral home in Stayton, Oregon [587]. We don't know where he was buried. After his death, Sara continued to live in the Portland area, dying there 25 May 1990. Details of her interment are unknown to us.

146. James Mason Merritt [Mary Bell49, John14, John3, Samuel1] was born 30 October 1882 at Jacksonville, Jackson County, Oregon [588]. He died of infant cholera 11 August 1883, and was buried in the Jacksonville cemetery [589].

147. George Hiller Merritt [Mary Bell49, John14, John3, Samuel1] was born 5 January 1884 in Jacksonville, Jackson County, Oregon [590]. His mother died only two weeks after his birth, and his father entrusted his care to George's aunt, Isadora McCully. George lived with "Issie" much of his life, until she died in 1944. George attended the University of Oregon (Eugene, Oregon) 1904-1906, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree. He returned to southern Oregon, and worked in his father's fruit orchards at Central Point for a time [591]. In 1910, he accepted a teaching job in San Rafael, Marin County, California [592]. About the same time, he enrolled as a graduate student at the University of California in Berkeley [593], but by August 1911 was back in Oregon, working for the Jackson County assessor [594]. In 1912, George moved to New York, New York, where he reportedly enrolled as a law student at Columbia University [595], and also worked for the Boy Scouts of America [596]. He was one of those chiefly responsible for preparation of the first "Handbook for Scout Masters" [597, 598] and wrote portions of the Boy Scouts Handbook. He wrote articles regularly for "Boys' Life," the official Scout magazine, and was the principal force behind a nationwide effort to get the Scouts involved in controlling harmful insects and plants [599]. He also helped organize Scout troops

122 as auxiliary "game wardens" to report suspected fish and game law violations [600]. About 1915, George married Grace M. Wick [601]. Grace, daughter of Alvin Hayes Wick and Emma E. Ufford, was born 7 March 1888 at Harlan, Shelby County, Iowa. She lived with her family at Harlan until at least 1905 [602], then reportedly attended the Columbia School of Expression (now, Columbia College) in Chicago, Illinois [603]. She was a stage actress for several years, and was said to have been part of the British Shakespearean company of Sir Johnston Forbes- Robertson and Gertrude Elliott which toured in the United States and Canada in 1913-1915 [603, 604]. By 1915, George and Grace had moved from New York to Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, where George worked as a public accountant [601, 605]. They remained in Boston until ca 1922, then George returned with his wife to Jacksonville, Oregon [606, 607]. They divorced in November 1924 [608]. After their divorce, Grace moved to southern California, hoping to begin a career in films. Apparently unsuccessful, she returned to southern Oregon in 1926 to renew her interest in politics and social justice issues that had attracted her when she first moved to Oregon. In 1927, she moved north to Portland, Oregon, where she lived the remainder of her life. She ran for Congress in 1934, but was defeated, then started a campaign for Portland mayor in 1936. She withdrew and offered her support to another candidate. She became well-known in Oregon as a crusader for various causes. At times, she was employed as a proofreader and as bookkeeper for the Oregon Liquor Control Board. She never remarried, and died in Portland 9 November 1958 [603, 607]. We don't know details of her interment. George continued to live at Jacksonville, Oregon, working at times as a bookkeeper for a fruit company [609], a public accountant [610], and in some capacity for the Army Corps of Engineers at Camp White near Medford, Oregon [611]. We have been unable to account for him after 1945 [612].

148. Esther Louise Merritt, daughter of John W. Merritt and Genevieve Elizabeth Moore, was born 8 August 1893 at Central Point, Jackson County, Oregon. She spent her youth in Central Point, except for a time attending St. Helen's Hall, girls' school in Portland, Oregon (dates of attendance not determined), and then Anna Head School for Girls in Berkeley, Alameda County, California [612]. She was in Berkeley when on 9 June 1913 she married Bridane Lawrence Sanderson [613]. Bridane (usually called "Sandy"), son of Charles S. Sanderson and Anna Mary Mielke, was born 8 October 1886 at Sleepy Eye, Brown County, Minnesota [614]. By 1900, the family had removed to Lawrence, Chippewa County, Wisconsin, where Sandy's parents were managing a hotel [615]. In 1906, they moved again, this time to Central Point, Oregon, where Esther Merritt and family were living. Sandy was employed as a rural mail carrier [616]. After their marriage, Esther and Sandy moved to Tacoma, Pierce County,

123

Washington, where he worked as a salesman at a department store [617, 618]. They returned to southern Oregon in 1922 and remained there the rest of their lives, first in Central Point [619] and later in Medford [620]. Sandy worked as an automobile salesman. Esther died in Medford 3 January 1945, and was buried in the Jacksonville Cemetery [612]. On 15 July 1946, Bridane married 2nd Elizabeth "Bess" (York) Wade [621]. Bess, daughter of Frederick York and Mary Whipple, was born 13 July 1895 in Grand Forks County, North Dakota. She moved with her parents from North Dakota to Ashland, Jackson County, Oregon in 1910 [622], graduated from the Southern Oregon Normal School, then taught school locally until 1932. In 1916 at Ashland she married Clyde T. Wade. He died in 1941. Bess died at Medford, Oregon 13 October 1970 [623], followed by Bridane on 22 June 1971 [621]. Bess was buried at the Siskiyou Memorial Park in Medford; Bridane was buried in the Jacksonville Cemetery.

Child of Bridane Sanderson and Esther Merritt: 297. John Merritt Sanderson (3 August 1913 - 4 May 1993)

149. Louis Brown Maxson, son of Charles Maxson and Elizabeth Brown, was born 24 August 1877 at Stephensville, Erath County, Texas. His parents separated soon after, and by June 1880 he and his mother, Elizabeth (Brown) Maxson, were in Klickitat County, Washington, with Mrs. Maxson's sister, Mary (Brown) Owen, and family [624]. About 1892, Elizabeth married 2nd Walter Winfield Ayer; Louis was with them in Seattle, King County, Washington, in 1900 [625], but probably was not living there. He was in San Francisco, San Francisco County, California, as early as 1898, employed as a printer [626], and was there at the time of the 1910 census, also [627]. He was at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon, in 1900, perhaps visiting his father, Charles Maxson. There, on 9 September 1900, he married Lillian Canter. [628]. Lillian, daughter of Marshall Canter and Margaret Gage, was born at Harrisburg 24 August 1879. She lived there with her parents until her marriage to Louis [629, 630], and she and Louis remained at Harrisburg until at least 1905 [631]. They divorced soon after that, and Louis returned to California [627]. Lillian left their two small children with her parents for a time [632], and found a job working in a laundry in Eugene, Lane County, Oregon [633]. While in Eugene, she met Arthur Reginald Johnson, who worked as a clerk in the railroad office in nearby Jasper, Oregon [634]. They married in Lane County 23 November 1910 [635]. Arthur (sometimes, Reginald Eugene) Johnson, son of Thomas N. Johnson and Anna E. White, was born 23 May 1883 at Canal Dover, Tuscarawas County, Ohio [636]. His father died before 1900, and by that time he, his brother Alfred, and his mother were living with his aunt, Euphemia (White) Bigelow at Galion, Crawford

124

County, Ohio. Although only 17 at the time, Arthur was identified as a "U. S. soldier" [637]. We have not been able to trace his military service, or identify with certainty where he was between 1900 and 1910 [638]. By 1916, Arthur, Lillian, and her two children by Louis Maxson [639] had moved to Alameda County, California. They lived in the San Francisco Bay area the rest of their lives, with Arthur working as a draftsman and civil engineer for Southern Pacific Railroad [640]. Lillian died in San Francisco County 2 June 1954; Arthur died in 1968 [641]. Both were buried in the Masonic cemetery at Harrisburg, Oregon. They had no additional children. In San Francisco in late December 1910, Louis Maxson married 2nd Lucy M. Bertrand [642]. She was probably the Lucy M. Bertrand born ca 1882 in California, of German parents [627]. We haven't been able to trace her origins. She was divorced before 1910, so we are not sure if Bertrand was her maiden name or married name. The marriage apparently did not last long, but we didn't find details. By 1918, Louis had married 3rd Ada Luella ____ [643]. She was reportedly born ca 1880 in Michigan, of a father born in Virginia and a mother in Pennsylvania [644]. We have been unable to find anyone who matches this description. She was probably the Ada L. Maxson born ca 1877, who died in Alameda County, California, 13 October 1921 [645]. Louis worked in the San Francisco Bay area as an auto mechanic [646]. In 1921, he accompanied Andrew M. McDonald of the Newman Creamery and Manufacturing Company to Sinaloa, Mexico, to help with the building of a packing plant [647]. On his return, he married 4th ca 1922-1923, Mercie A. (Marsh) O'Neal. Mercie, daughter of William Marsh and Clara Banks, was born 18 December 1875, probably in Chemung County, New York [648]. The family moved to Sanel (now, Hopland), Mendocino County, California, by ca 1890. Mercie's father, William Marsh, probably died there, as her mother was recorded there as a widow in 1900 [649]. About 1902, Mercie married John S. O'Neal, and they lived in nearby Cloverdale, Sonoma County, California [650, 651]. By 1920, they were living apart, John in Cloverdale and Mercie in San Francisco, working in a department store [652, 653]. We couldn't determine if they divorced, or if John died; as he was 79 years old in 1920, and 35 years older than Mercie, it seems most likely that he died. After their marriage, Louis and Mercie lived for a year or two in Berkeley, California, but by 1926 they had moved to Pacific Grove, Monterey County, California, where Louis worked first as a campground manager, and then at his usual profession of mechanic [646]. About 1930 they moved to San Martin, Santa Clara County, where they farmed. They lived the rest of their lives there, Louis dying 9 September 1953 and Mercie on 3 May 1965. We haven't located a gravesite for either.

150. Charles Theodore Maxson [Mary Louise51, Mary Jane15, John3, Samuel1] was born 22 August 1886, at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. He lived and farmed with his parents at Harrisburg until their deaths, then continued to farm in the vicinity. He never married. He died at the Albany (Oregon) General Hospital on 5 May 1955 after suffering a stroke two days earlier. He was buried at the Workman Cemetery at Harrisburg [654, 655].

151. Charles Roth Lister [Carrie56, Mary Jane15, John3, Samuel1] was born 25 November 1884 at Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. He moved with his parents to Pomeroy, Garfield County, Washington Territory soon after his birth [656]; to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, by 1895 [657]; then back to Harrisburg. His mother died in 1896, and his father remarried and returned to Portland. Charles remained in Harrisburg in the care of his aunt Emma Love until some time after 1900 [630], then moved to Portland where by 1903 he was working in the grocery business with his father, a career he followed the rest of his life. After his father died in 1916, and until after 1920 he continued to live in the house with his step- mother and several other boarders. Later, he lived with his brother, Clare Douglas Lister and family [658]. He died in Portland 14 November 1945 of a heart attack. He was buried in the Greenwood Hill Cemetery in Portland [659, 660].

152. Clare Douglas Lister [Carrie56, Mary Jane15, John3, Samuel1] was born 2 October 1885 at Pomeroy, Garfield County, Washington Territory. About 1895, the family moved to Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon [657], then shortly after to Harrisburg, Linn County, Oregon. His mother died in 1896, and his father remarried and returned to Portland. Like his brother Charles, he was probably left in Harrisburg with relatives through his school years, although we can't specifically account for him until 1903. By then, he was working with his father and brother in the grocery business. Later, he worked as a salesman and appraiser in a jewelry store, and as a clerk in a cigar store. About 1913, he began working as a locomotive fireman for the Southern Pacific Railroad, a position he held the rest of his life [661]. About 1910, Clare Lister married Emma Christina Bohlander [662]. Emma, daughter of Peter Bohlander and Barbara ______[663], was born at Beaver Creek, Clackamas County, Oregon, in September 1891 [664]. She spent her childhood on the family farm at Beaver Creek before moving to Portland. She and Clare spent their entire married life in Portland. Clare died of heart trouble 26 April 1931 [665, 666]. Emma continued to live in Portland until her death 6 August 1967 [667]. Both were interred at the Greenwood Hills Cemetery.

153. Chandos Richmond McCully [Frank57, William16, John3, Samuel1] was born ca December 1880 at Dayton, Columbia County, Washington Territory. He died eight months later, on 1 August 1881. He was buried in the Dayton City Cemetery [668, 669].

153. Vesta Margaret McCully [Frank57, William16, John3, Samuel1] was born 6 November 1883 at Pomeroy, Columbia County, Washington Territory [670]. She moved with her parents to Joseph, Wallowa County, Washington, ca 1886. She died there 31 March 1889, and was buried at the Hurricane Creek Cemetery near Joseph [671].

155. Merritt Leon McCully [Frank57, William16, John3, Samuel1] was born 13 May 1886 at San Luis Obispo, San Luis Obispo County, California [672]. Just before or just after his birth, his family moved from Pomeroy, Columbia County, Washington Territory, to Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. Merritt spent his earliest years there, but ca 1892, the family returned to Washington, to Ellensburg, Kittias County. They left Ellensburg ca 1901 [673] for Olympia, Thurston County, Washington, where Merritt spent most of the rest of his life. He attended Washington State College at Pullman 1905-1908, graduating with a degree in Economic Science. In his freshman year, he was selected to tour with the college glee club through the Northwest, an unusual honor for a first-year student [674]. He also won honors as a member of the school's baseball team, pitching 23 complete games, which today stands as the third best record of any Cougar pitcher [675]. After completing school, Merritt returned to Olympia and lived with his widowed mother [676]. He worked for the Morning Olympian newspaper as a reporter, and possibly also an editor [677]. He was a member of the Washington National Guard (Company F, Second Infantry), and he left his job with the Olympian when his unit was deployed to the Mexican border in response to raids by Mexican bandit Pancho Villa. His company camped on the desert near Calexico, California, through July and August 1916, but returned to Washington in early September without seeing any action [678]. In the fall of 1917, Merritt was once again called to military service. The Washington Second Infantry had been reorganized as the 161st Infantry at Camp Murray near Tacoma, Washington. His company was moved to Camp Mills, Long Island, New York, in November 1917, where Merritt was appointed second lieutenant [679]. From there, they shipped overseas, and saw war time service in

127

France and Germany [678]. After the armistice in November 1918, Merritt served with the military police in Germany until shipped back to the United States in June 1919 [680]. After discharge from the Army in July 1919, he rejoined the Washington National Guard. On 18 August 1919 in Olympia, Merritt married Ethel Clarke Walbridge, whom he had met in France where she was driving Salvation Army ambulances [681]. Ethel, daughter of Augustus Clark Walbridge and Catherine Pierce Clarke, was born 13 May 1886 at Brooklyn, Kings County, New York. She lived with her family in Brooklyn until going overseas in World War I [682, 683]. In Olympia, both Merritt and Ethel were very active in society and local affairs, being mentioned regularly in local newspapers. In 1928, Ethel took their three daughters to New York, and subsequently divorced Merritt. She suffered a "nervous breakdown," and was confined for some time to the Bloomingdale Hospital at White Plains, New York, the "insane ward" of The New York Hospital [684]. After release, she lived in New York City, where she worked as a business secretary and wrote three mystery novels (under the name of "Walbridge McCully") [685]. Apparently, she had little to do with her three daughters, who were raised by her sister, Helen Walbridge [686]. In 1952, Ethel settled at St. John, Virgin Islands. She built her own home there, wrote a book about the experience, and was considered instrumental in shaping the size of the Virgin Islands National Park. She died at St. John 21 December 1980; she was buried at sea [687, 688]. Merritt stayed on at Olympia, employed at various times in technical positions by the Washington State Land Commission and Oregon State Patrol, and as a syndicated news writer. He was commander of the local American Legion post, and later served to organize and manage Legion-sponsored sports teams. He continued to be active in a variety of civic activities. In 1952, he was admitted to the Washington Veterans' Hospital at Retsil, Kitsap County, Washington, suffering from a variety of heart and lung ailments, probably residual effects of gassing and typhoid fever suffered during World War I [689]. He died at the hospital 16 July 1954, and was buried at Masonic Memorial Park, Tumwater, Washington.

Children of Merritt McCully and Ethel Walbridge: 302. Kathleen Walbridge McCully (ca March 1921 - 20 June 1921) 303. Kathleen Walbridge McCully (17 June 1922 - 12 September 1966) 304. Helen Walbridge McCully (21 January 1923 - 4 December 1980) 305. Merritt Walbridge McCully (21 September 1926 - 8 September 2009)

156. Vera Myrle Coshow [Emma59, William16, John3, Samuel1] was born 16 May 1884, probably at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon [690]. She lived at Joseph with her parents until ca 1892, then they returned to their previous hometown of

128

Brownsville, Linn County, Oregon. Myrle lived at Brownsville until her marriage at Albany, Linn County, 27 October 1906, to Owen Isaac Roberts [691]. Owen Roberts, son of Thomas J. Roberts and Mary Ann Reese, was born 17 June 1883 at Chiles Valley near St. Helena, Napa County, California. He lived there on his family's farm at least through 1900 [692]. We have not determined how he met Myrle in Oregon. After their marriage, they returned to Chiles Valley and farmed there. Other than a few years spent in the Los Angeles, California area (at least 1918-1920), where Owen worked in a shipyard, they lived in Napa County through the 1950s. Owen was variously employed as a truck driver, at the Napa City Pound, and with the Napa Police Department [693]. Some time after 1958, Myrle and Owen moved to Union City, Alameda County, California. Owen died there 7 April 1974, and Myrle 4 March 1979. They were living at the Masonic Home of Union City at of their deaths. They were buried at the Tulocay Cemetery, Napa [694]. Owen Roberts and Myrle Coshow had no children.

157. Owen William Coshow [Emma59, William16, John3, Samuel1] was born 13 December 1886 at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. He lived at Joseph with his parents until ca 1892, then they returned to their previous hometown of Brownsville, Linn County, Oregon. He lived at Brownsville until 1917, working at various jobs including serving as a cook at the Linn-Benton Fruitgrowers Association cannery [691, 695, 696]. During World War I, he served for a time with the 809th Aero Squadron (Construction) stationed in Texas [697]; by 1920 he was back in Brownsville, working as a processor in a local creamery [698]. By 1923, he had moved to Napa, Napa County, California, where he was working as an automobile painter [699]. On 12 September 1925 in Oakland, Alameda County, California, he married Nellie Bly (Conklin) Dobbs [700]. Nellie, daughter of Charles W. Conklin and Laura Hill, was born 10 November 1890 in Modoc County, California. Some time after 1900 [701], she moved with her family to Napa, California, and there on 17 November 1907 she married 1st George Riley Dobbs. They had one child [702]. George died at Napa in 1924. At the time of her marriage to Owen Coshow, Nellie was working in a candy store in Napa [700]. Nellie died less than a year after her marriage to Owen, on 6 July 1926. Owen remained in Napa until after 1930, working as a house painter, then moved to Vallejo, Solano County, California, where he found work as a painter in the Mare Island Navy Yards. He returned to Napa after 1935, but continued to work at the Navy Yards. He died 20 January 1942, after collapsing in a restaurant near Mare Island [703]. He was interred at Tulocay Cemetery, Napa.

158. Fayne McCully Coshow [Emma59, William16, John3, Samuel1] was born 6 December 1891 at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon. Not long after his birth, he

129 moved with his family to their previous hometown of Brownsville, Linn County, Oregon. He lived in Brownsville until 1915 or 1916 [691, 695], then went to Alaska where he worked surveying the railroad line to be constructed from Seward to Fairbanks [697, 704, 705]. On his return from Alaska, he enlisted in the U. S. Marine Corps; after three months training at Mare Island, Solano County, California, he was stationed at Portsmouth, New Hampshire through August 1919. In September 1919, he was transferred to Los Angeles, then spent June 1920 to January 1922 at San Francisco. He was discharged from the Marines 22 January 1922 [706, 707]. After completing his military service, he returned to Brownsville, where he worked as a surveyor [708] and later as a retail lumber merchant [709]. He spent the remainder of his life at Brownsville, dying there 19 April 1963. He was buried in the Brownsville Pioneer Cemetery. Fayne Coshow never married.

159. Robert Delos Coshow [Emma59, William16, John3, Samuel1] was born 23 September 1894 at Brownsville, Linn County, California. Except for service in the U. S. Navy during World War I [710, 711], "Rusty's" home was at Brownsville until ca 1940 [691, 695, 698, 708]. Most of his employment was with the Bank of Brownsville, first as a bookkeeper and later as assistant cashier. On Friday, 18 August 1922 in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, Rusty Coshow married Bernice Miller [712]. Bernice, born Bernice Placke, was the daughter of William Frederick Placke and Elva B. Evans [713]. She was born December 1896 in Oregon, probably at Auburn (now, Vernonia), Columbia County [714]. Her parents divorced soon after 1900, and Elva married 2nd in 1903 Adolph Miller, who raised Bernice [715]. Bernice attended Washington High School in Portland [716, 717], then enrolled at Reed College in Portland [718, 719]. She withdrew before graduating, and enrolled at the University of Oregon in Eugene, finishing with a Bachelor of Arts in History in 1919 [720, 721]. She was hired by the Brownsville High School in 1920 [722], and continued to teach history and science classes there at least through 1930 [708]. She was engaged in other pursuits later [723, 724], but we don't know if this was in lieu of teaching. Rusty and Bernice separated by 1940 and Bernice moved to Portland [394]. She filed for divorce in 1941 [725]. The last certain record we have of her is in the funeral notice for her mother in September 1941 [726]. She was young enough then that she may have remarried [727]. After his separation from Bernice, Rusty had moved to Napa, Napa County, California, where he was working as an automobile painter in 1940 [728]. The move was short-lived, and he was back in Brownsville in 1941 [729]. Apparently, he lived at Brownsville for some time after that, but by 1963 had moved to Lebanon, Linn County, Oregon [730]. He died at Lebanon 25 July 1967, and was buried in the Brownsville Pioneer Cemetery. They had no children.

160. Unidentified Coshow [Emma59, William16, John3, Samuel1]. In the 1900 and 1910 Federal censuses, Emma (McCully) Coshow reported she had given birth to seven children, five of whom were still living. The most likely period for this birth was ca 1896-1898 at Brownsville, Oregon, but a birth ca 1888-1889 at Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon, would have been possible. In any event, we found no specific reference to this child, and assume death occurred as an infant.

161. Margaret Coshow [Emma59, William16, John3, Samuel1] was born 10 June 1899 at Brownsville, Linn County, Oregon. She lived with her parents, and worked at local jobs until after 1920 [691, 695, 698]. About 1923, probably at Napa, Napa County, California, she married John Robin Van Valkenburg [731]. John, son of John S. Van Valkenburg [732] and Margaret Alice Miller, was born at Great Bend, Barton County, Kansas on 10 June 1888 [733]. He lived with his family in Kansas until at least 1892 (sibling born there August 1892); by 1900, they were living in Custer County, Oklahoma [734]. The family ran a boarding house in Bandon, Coos County, Oregon, for some time ca 1910 [735], but by 1917 were farming in Fergus County, Montana [736]. They moved to Napa, California, ca 1919, where his family farmed and John sold real estate [737]. In subsequent years, he worked at various sales jobs in the Napa area. John died at Napa 1 September 1939, the result of an automobile accident. He was buried at the Tulocay Cemetery, Napa. By 1944, Margaret had married 2nd Mac Johnson [738]. Mac Johnson, son of John Johnson and Mary E. Woods, was born 17 October 1895 at Greely, Weld County, Colorado [739, 740]. He lived with his parents at Greeley until after 1920 [741], employed as a house painter. By 1930, he was living in Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California, working as a house painter [742]. He had moved to Vallejo, Solano County, California by 1942, where he was employed at the Mare Island Naval Shipyard [743]. Margaret and Mac lived at Napa until his death there 8 August 1954. We have not determined his burial location. Some time after his death, Margaret moved to Los Angeles, California, where she died at the Eastern Star Home on 13 October 1986. She was buried at Tulocay Cemetery, Napa.

Children of John Van Valkenburg and Margaret Coshow: 306. James Calvin Van Valkenburg (21 March 1925 - 29 December 1998) 307. Robert Worth Van Valkenburg (22 December 1926 - 20 January 1995) 308. John Donald Van Valkenburg (12 September 1931 - 31 January 1996)

162. A female twin to Margaret Coshow [Emma59, William16, John3, Samuel1] was reportedly born 10 June 1899 at Brownsville, Linn County, Oregon. We were unable to find specific references to this birth. Presumably, she died as an infant.

131

163. Albert F. McCully [Albert65, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 20 May 1870 at Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts. He died there 13 February 1871 of "brain fever" [744].

164. Francis Fred McCully [Albert65, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 28 November 1871 at Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts [745]. He lived with his parents at Salem until ca 1874, then moved to Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada, his father's place of birth. The family stayed in New Brunswick until 1883, then returned to Salem [746, 747]. Frank began working as a baker in Salem by 1890 [748], and continued in that profession most of his life. In Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts on 13 December 1899, he married Ida McCourt. Ida, daughter of Thomas McCourt and Jane E. Higgins, was born in September 1878 at Brooklyn, Kings County, New York, but moved with her family to Salem, Massachusetts by 1880 [749, 750]. Frank and Ida lived in Salem until ca 1930, then moved to Peabody, Essex County, Massachusetts [751]. They continued as bakers. Ida died at Peabody in 1935 [2]. By 1937, Frank had moved back to Salem, and had married 2nd Mary E. (Welch) McCourt [753]. Mary was the daughter of Luke Welch and Maria Welch [754] and widow of Albert E. McCourt, brother of Frank's first wife, Ida, and also a Salem baker. Mary was born 3 December 1885 in Salem [755], and had lived there her entire life. She and Albert had at least five children, two of whom lived with Frank and Mary in April 1940 [756]. On returning to Salem, Frank had begun to work in a leather factory, a job he held at least through 1947 [753]. Mary died at Salem in 1948 [757]; Frank continued to live there the rest of his life, dying 18 July 1972 [758]. Frank and Ida McCully had no children.

165. Melbourne B. McCully [Albert65, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born ca 7 January 1877 in Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada [759, 760]. The family stayed in New Brunswick until 1883, then moved to Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts [746, 747]. Melbourne lived at Salem the rest of his life, working as a baker. He died of tuberculosis on 22 March 1905 [760], and was buried at Greenlawn Cemetery, Salem. He did not marry.

166. William Albert McCully [Albert65, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born February 1879 in Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada [759, 760]. The family stayed in New Brunswick until 1883, then moved to Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts [746, 747]. William lived at Salem the rest of his life, working as a janitor. He suffered from a partial paralysis which disqualified him from military service [761], and which may have contributed to his early death. He died in 1932 [762]. He did not marry.

132

167. Mary C. McCully [Albert65, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 3 August 1884 at Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts [763, 764]. She lived at Salem throughout her life, except ca 1936-1940 when she was in nearby Peabody, Essex County, Massachusetts. She was a music teacher 1904-1905, then worked as a clerk and book keeper in various businesses in Salem. From at least 1934 through 1955, she was clerk for the Mutual Fire Inspection Bureau of New England [765]. She died at Salem on 25 February 1975 [766]. She never married.

168. Alice Irene McCully [Albert65, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 10 February 1891 at Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts [767]. She died there 17 August 1891, of infant cholera [768].

169. Janice Alberta Steeves [Mary Jane66, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born in September 1879 at Coverdale, Albert County, New Brunswick, Canada [769]. "Jennie," as she was most often identified, lived with her parents at Coverdale until ca 1881, when they moved to Moncton, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [770]. They left New Brunswick in 1889, and moved to Fargo, Cass County, North Dakota. She lived with her parents at Fargo until 19 June 1907, when she married Clarence Oscar Wilson [771]. Clarence, son of James M. Wilson and Ida D. Warren [772], was born 3 February 1881 at Georgetown, Clay County, Minnesota. Both of his parents had died before 1895, when he was still living at Georgetown with his older brother, Gowin, and his younger siblings [773]. By 1899 he and Gowin were both at Fargo, North Dakota, and were still there in 1901 [774]. We have been unable to locate Clarence between 1903 and 1907; he was reported to have been in Hood River, Oregon, part of this time [771, 775]. After their marriage, Jennie and Clarence moved to Oregon, and at least in 1910 and 1911, were living at La Grande, Union County, where Clarence described himself as a musician [193]. By 1916, they were at Weiser, Washington County, Idaho, where Clarence was identified as a musician at the Star Theater [776]. In 1917, they were in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon. Over the next 15 years, Clarence performed as a violinist at local venues and also taught music [777]. Jennie (Steeves) Wilson died at Portland 21 June 1931, and was buried at the Riverview Cemetery [778]. By 1935, Clarence had married 2nd Rose Yvonne Ricard, and they were living at Aloha, Washington County, Oregon [779]. Rose was Rosilda Ricard, daughter of Louis Ricard and Angeline Larivierre, born 18 January 1897 at Williamsette (Chicopee), Hampden County, Massachusetts [780]. We have not been able to trace her between 1900 in Chicopee (recorded as "Silda") [781] to Portland, Oregon in 1928, when she was a violin and piano teacher [782]. Her marriage to Clarence was her second, the first ending in divorce [393], but we have not identified her first husband.

133

Some time after 1945, Clarence and Rose moved south to Hugo, Josephine County, Oregon. Clarence died there 5 March 1974; Rose followed on 15 November 1988 [783]. Both were buried at the Hawthorne Memorial Gardens at Grants Pass, Oregon. Jennie Steeves and Clarence Wilson had no children.

170. Leonard Thomas Steeves5 [Mary Jane66, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 20 December 1880 at Coverdale, Albert County, New Brunswick, Canada [770]. Shortly after his birth, the family moved to Moncton, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [784]. They left New Brunswick in 1889, and moved to Fargo, Cass County, North Dakota. He lived at Fargo the rest of his life, working for the local telephone company as lineman, installer, and service representative [785]. In 1915 or 1916, Leonard married Frieda M. Weingarth [786]. Frieda, daughter of Heinrich (Henry) Weingarth and Marie (possibly) Karr [787], was born in Germany in June 1889 [788]. She came with her mother and sister from Bremen, Germany, to Baltimore, Maryland, aboard the U. S. Munchen in 1895. Her father had arrived earlier that year [789]. They may have lived at Baltimore for a time, but by June 1900 were living at Neillsville, Clark County, Wisconsin [788], and by 1905 were at St. Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota [790]. Frieda's family stayed in the St. Paul area the rest of their lives, but by 1909 she was living in Fargo, working as an operator for the telephone company. She continued as a phone operator at least until 1940 [785]. Leonard died at Fargo 19 February 1950. Frieda survived there until 9 March 1986. Both were buried at the Riverside Cemetery at Fargo.

Children of Leonard Steeves and Frieda Weingarth: 309. Dorothy Irene Steeves (24 February 1923 - 30 December 1998) 310. Clifford O. Steeves (28 July 1925 - 8 September 1975)

171. Mae Estelle Steeves [Mary Jane66, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 19 May 1883 at Moncton, Westmorland County, New Brunswick, Canada [791]. Her family left Moncton in 1889, and moved to Fargo, Cass County, North Dakota. She lived with her parents at Fargo until 19 June 1907, when she married William Albert Priess [771]. William Priess, son of Adolph Priess and Christiene Fredreka Goettard [792], was born 28 February 1879 at Leaf Mountain, Otter Tail County, Minnesota [793, 794]. His parents lived at Leaf Mountain throughout their lives, but by 1900 William and his brother Henry were living at Evansville, Douglas County, Minnesota, where William was selling dry goods [795]. He moved to North Dakota some time after 1900, and in 1907 was working in a bank in Ambrose, Divide County, North Dakota [771]. After their wedding, William returned to Ambrose with Mae; he was selling real estate in 1910 [796].

134

After a few years at Ambrose, the Priess family moved to Grand Forks, Grand Forks County, North Dakota, where William was an auditor for Northwestern Trust Company [797, 798]. By 1920, they had moved once again, to Garrison, McLean County, North Dakota, where William was once again working as a cashier in a bank [799]. They were still at Garrison in 1930; William was president of the bank [800]. Some time before 1940, Mae and William moved to Missoula, Missoula County, Montana, where William's brother Conrad had a hotel and store. They stayed at Missoula until 1948 [801]. The next year, 3 September 1949, William died at Twin Falls, Twin Falls County, Idaho [794]. He was buried at Sunset Memorial Park Cemetery at Twin Falls. We assume that Mae continued to live at Twin Falls, with or near her son Lawrence Priess and his family, until her death in 1972. She was buried at Sunset Memorial Park, also.

Children of William A. Priess and Mae Steeves: 311. William S. Priess (15 April 1908 - February 1982) 312. Agnes Virginia Priess (29 September 1914 - 11 June 1998) 313. Lawrence Robert Priess (29 May 1917 - 1 April 2013)

Her family left Moncton in 1889, and moved to Fargo, Cass County, North Dakota. She lived with her parents at Fargo, and later with her brother Leonard and his family, and spent her entire adult life in Cass County. For many years, she worked for the photographer, E. B. McCracken, and for the Herbst Department Store [785]. She died 31 August 1975, and was buried at Riverside Cemetery, Fargo. She never married.

173. Fred Willard Steeves [Mary Jane66, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 28 April 1887 at Moncton, Westmorland County, New Brunswick, Canada [803]. His family left Moncton in 1889, and moved to Fargo, Cass County, North Dakota. He lived there with his parents until 5 September 1911, when he married Catherine M. Beck [804]. Catherine, daughter of John Beck and Katherin Wettengl [805], was born 14 April 1887 at Kaukauna, Outagamie County, Wisconsin [806]. She lived there with her parents until 1905, working as a laundress [807] and dressmaker [808]. By 1910, her mother had died, her father and a number of her siblings were still at Kaukauna [809], but she had moved to Fargo, where she worked as a dressmaker at Patterson Millinery [810]. At the time of his marriage to "Katie" Beck, Fred had been working as a lineman for the local electric company. Soon after, he went to work for the North West Bell Telephone Company, and worked for them the rest of his life in various capacities.

135

He moved his family from Fargo ca 1914 to Sioux Falls, Minnehaha County, South Dakota; to Minneapolis, Hennepin County, Minnesota ca 1919; to Sioux City, Woodbury County, Iowa, by 1930; and to Davenport, Scott County, Iowa ca 1934 [811]. Katie died at Davenport 27 September 1965 [812]; he died there 9 January 1974. Both were buried in the Riverside Cemetery at Fargo, North Dakota.

174. Mary Agnes Gailey [Julia68, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born ca 1879 [813] at Head of Millstream, Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada. She lived with her parents at Head of Millstream until ca 1899, when she immigrated to Massachusetts [814]. She was living at Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts, on 27 November 1901, when she married Robert F. Cameron [815]. Robert, son of Duncan Cameron and Margery Ferguson [815], was born ca 1875 at Upper South River, Antigonish County, Nova Scotia [816]. He was still living there with his parents in April 1891 [817]. They were farmers, and we assume that was how he spent his early life. He immigrated to the United States in 1898 or 1899 [818]. He was living in Salem when he and Agnes were married [815]. Robert identified himself as a blacksmith when first in the United States [815], but he worked most of his subsequent life as a gardener and caretaker [819]. He and Agnes lived all their married life at Salem. Agnes died there 23 September 1951 [820]. Robert continued to live there with his son and wife until at least 1964 [819]. We haven't been able to determine when he died, or where either was buried.

Child of Robert Cameron and Mary Agnes Gailey: 316. Robert Earl Cameron (16 December 1908 - 4 November 1967)

175. John William Gailey [Julia68, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 31 December 1880 at Head of Millstream, Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada. He lived on the family farm until 1901 [821, 822], then immigrated to the United States in 1902. He lived the rest of his life at Portland, Cumberland County, Maine, working as a mason and building contractor [823]. He became a naturalized United States citizen 28 May 1925. On 30 September 1908 at Portland, John married Alice M. Corey [824]. Alice, daughter of Hiram Corey and Mary Saunders, was born at Havelock Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick, on 23 October 1886 [825]. She lived her parents at Havelock until 1906, then immigrated to Portland, Maine. Her parents remained in New Brunswick. John Gailey died in 1934. His body was returned to New Brunswick, and he was

136

buried near his parents at the Queensville Cemetery. Within a year of his death, Alice entered the Boothby Home in Portland. She remained an inmate there to at least 1940 [826]. We were not able to find information on her after that date. John Gailey and Alice Corey did not have children.

176. Charles H. Gailey [Julia68, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1] was born 24 November 1883 at Head of Millstream, Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada.

He lived his early life at Parry Sound, but we cannot trace him for certain after 1911, and don't know when he moved to New Brunswick. His parents were still in Ontario in 1921 [840]. Edward and Mable Wood had two sons (and possibly a daughter); we have no further records of them after their marriage. Mable reportedly died 1 February 1971 at Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick (unverified by us).

By 1910 his father, a farmer, had moved the family to Brunswick, Cumberland County, Maine [846], and by 1920 to Portland, Maine [842]. Arthur worked his entire career with the railroads, Maine Central and Portland

138

Terminal Company. They lived at Portland until ca 1935, then moved to nearby Freeport, Cumberland County, Maine, where they lived out their lives. We cannot account for Arthur after 1961 [847], and don't know when he died. Jennie lived until 6 September 1981. She was buried in the Burr Cemetery at Freeport.

Sherman (as he is identified in most records) lived with his parents at Petitcodiac, farmed and sold farming equipment with his father until at least 1921 [849]. By 1928, he was living in Moncton, Westmorland County, working for the Canadian National Railway. At Moncton on 1 March 1928, he married Jessie May Hubley [850]. Jessie, daughter of George Isaac Hubley and Florence May Conners, was born 1 March 1906 at Westville, Pictou County, Nova Scotia [851]. She lived with her parents at Westville until at least 1921 [852], but at the time of her marriage was living at Moncton [853]. We were unable to determine how long the couple lived in Moncton, or how long he worked for the railway. By 1940, they were living in Petitcodiac, where Sherman worked as a laborer. From at least 1945 to 1968 their worked at Petitcodiac as cheese-makers [854]. Sherman reportedly died 5 April 1971 at Saint John, Saint John County, New Brunswick. Jessie reportedly died at Moncton 2 September 1980 [855]. We don't know where either was buried.

181. Flossie Jeanette McCully (George71, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1) was born 29 December 1893 at Petitcodiac, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [856]. She lived with her parents at Petitcodiac, working as a clerk and stenographer, until her marriage 15 November 1922 to John Arthur Davidson [857]. "Jack" Davidson, son of Frederick William Davidson and Annie Herrett, was born 25 October 1889 at either Portage Vale or nearby Anagance, Kings County, New Brunswick [858]. By 1911, with his father deceased, his family had moved into Sussex, Kings County [859]. He relocated to Petitcodiac by 1918, and began work there as a mechanic in a garage [860]. He continued to work as a mechanic at

139

Petitcodiac until January 1961, when he and Flossie moved to Moncton, Westmorland County. Jack died at the Moncton City Hospital 22 April 1961, of a heart attack and later stroke. He was buried at the Maplewood Cemetery at Petitcodiac [861]. After Jack's death, Flossie lived at Petitcodiac. She died there in 1975, and was buried in the Maplewood Cemetery [862].

182. Mary Jane McCully (George71, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1) was born 17 November 1895 at Petitcodiac, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [863]. She lived with her parents at Petitcodiac, employed as a stenographer, until her marriage 11 July 1922 to William Rufus Lockhart [864]. William Lockhart, son of Edmund Reynolds Lockhart and Lyla J. Fawcett, was born at Petitcodiac on 14 September 1893. He lived at Petitcodiac his entire life, at first farming with his father and working for the Canadian National Railroad. He became a barber ca 1921, and pursued that occupation until a few weeks before his death. He died 23 May 1962 at the Moncton, New Brunswick, City Hospital of heart problems, and was buried at the Fairhaven Memorial Gardens in Moncton [865, 866, 867]. Mary Jane reportedly lived in the Petitcodiac area until her death 28 March 1980, but we have not been able to confirm that.

183. Clarence Mortimer McCully (George71, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1) was born 28 March 1899 at Petitcodiac, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [868]. He lived with his parents at Petitcodiac until after 1911 [869]. He was living at Sussex, New Brunswick, working as a clerk, when he enlisted with the Canadian Over-seas Expeditionary Force in May 1917 [870]. He was on military assignment in Europe until 1919, returning from Liverpool, England, on the ship Carmana, arriving at Halifax, Nova Scotia, 12 July 1919 [871]. Clarence apparently remained in Nova Scotia for some time after mustering out, as he was in Truro, Colchester County, in 1921 [872, 873]. After that, we found no record of him until 1934, when he was living in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, serving as comptroller for the Young Men's Christian Association. He continued to serve in managerial positions with the YMCA until at least 1965 [874].

140

Some time before 1940, Clarence married Mary Grace Walley [875]. Grace, daughter of Otto Walley and Sarah Dimock, was born 12 January 1899 at Scotch Village, Hants County, Nova Scotia [876]. She lived her early life with her family in Hants County, but by 1917 or 1918 was teaching school at River John, Pictou County, Nova Scotia [877]. She was part of a program of "travelling teachers," specially trained to make learning more relevant in rural communities. She taught at River John perhaps two years; the experimental assignment was considered "successful," but government funding failed [878, 879], and the teachers from the Rural Science program were assigned to permanent positions. Grace became a teacher at Bible Hill, Truro, Colchester County, and taught there at least into 1923 [880, 881]. It seems likely that Grace and Clarence met while they were both living in Truro, but (as noted above) we have no certain record of them together until 1940. In 1926, Grace, her mother Sadie Walley, and sister Florence Walley filled out paperwork at Halifax, anticipating traveling to Lompoc, Santa Barbara County, California, perhaps to remain permanently with relatives already there [882]. Sadie and Florence did make the trip, and lived the rest of their lives in California. Grace was not in California with her family in 1930 [883]; she apparently returned to Nova Scotia (or went elsewhere) before that, or perhaps she did not sail with the family, after all. In any event, we haven't been able to track her between 1926 and 1940. Clarence and Grace lived in Montreal until ca 1952, then moved to nearby Chateauguay, Chateauguay County, Quebec [884]. Clarence's affiliation with the YMCA continued. Beginning ca 1962 and lasting through his life, he was active with the Baptist Convention of Ontario and Quebec, working with their Department of Christian Education, serving on the Organization and Church Relations Committee, and acting as representative for the Baptist Convention of the Atlantic Provinces [885]. He retired from church activities in 1974, when they were living at La Prairie, La Prairie County, Quebec. Clarence died in 1983, and Grace in 1988. Presumably they lived their last years in Quebec, but we did not find any obituaries or other death records. Their names are on the same monument with Clarence's parents in Maplewood Cemetery, Petitcodiac, New Brunswick. We did not find reference to any children of Clarence and Grace.

184. Lena Lunette McCully (George71, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1) was born 25 May 1900 at Petitcodiac, Westmorland County, New Brunswick [886]. She lived with her parents at Petitcodiac until her marriage to Darrell Cecil MacArthur on 6 September 1924 [887, 888]. Darrell MacArthur, son of John MacArthur and Ella Kierstead, was born 23 May 1898 at Sussex, Kings County, New Brunswick [889]. He lived at Sussex until April 1918, when he enlisted in the Canadian Over-seas Expeditionary Force [890]. He

141 returned from overseas to Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 1919, and in 1921 was living in Moncton, Westmorland County, New Brunswick, employed by the Canadian National Railroad [891]. Presumably, Darrell and Lunette lived their entire married life at Moncton, although we haven't found any specific records between 1924 and 1945. Likely, Darrell worked for the railroad in those intervening years, as he did in later years. By 1965, he had retired [892]. He died between 1968 and 1972 [893], but we found no record of his death or burial. We haven't found any record of Lunette after 1972.

Child of Darrell MacArthur and Lunette McCully: 345. Gordon Dean MacArthur (ca 1926 -)

185. Coleman Clyde McCully (Fred73, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1) was born 15 May 1891 at Clinton, Worcester County, Massachusetts [894]. He lived with his parents at Clinton until 1895, then they moved to Fitchburg, Worcester County, Massachusetts. Clyde attended Worcester Polytechnic Institute, majoring in engineering. He graduated in 1913, having completed a thesis on railroad bridge design [895]. After graduation, he was employed by the Erie Railroad, perhaps first in Pennsylvania [896], then in Youngstown, Ohio [897], Huntington, Indiana [898], and Garrett, Indiana [899]. In 1918, he was serving in the U. S. Army Air Service, at Love Field (Dallas, Texas) [900], then at Post Field (Fort Sill, Oklahoma) [901]. Once returned to Massachusetts in 1919, Clyde spent the rest of his life in and near Boston. He worked as a civil engineer, for various government agencies, including the Metropolitan District Water Supply Commission, and the Emergency Public Works Commission. Later, he was deputy director of the Massachusetts State Commission on Administration and Finance, and deputy director of Building Construction. He lived with his parents and siblings at Dorchester, Suffolk County, until 1937, then lived principally at Natick, Middlesex County. In the early 1940s, he lived for two or three years at Wickford, Washington County, Rhode Island, while he was chief engineer for the Navy working on the construction of the Quonset Point Naval Air Station [902]. Clyde died 16 September 1968 at Newton-Wellesley Hospital, near his Natick home. He was buried at Forest Hills Cemetery at Fitchburg [903]. He never married.

186. Nelson Lemuel McCully (Fred73, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1) was born 21 June 1893 at Clinton, Worcester County, Massachusetts [904]. He lived with his parents at Clinton until 1895, then they moved to Fitchburg, Worcester County, Massachusetts. Nelson graduated from Fitchburg High School in 1910 [905], then worked as a clerk for the Cambridge-Beoli Woolen Mill in Fitchburg in 1912 and

142

1913 [906]. He moved with his family to Arlington, Middlesex County, Massachusetts ca 1914; while there, he enrolled in the College of Liberal Arts at Boston University, but apparently only attended in 1916 [907]. Also in 1916, he began work as a cost clerk for the Lewis Manufacturing Company in Norwood, Massachusetts, and moved to nearby Walpole, Norfolk County, Massachusetts [908, 909]. On 21 November 1917 in Arlington, Nelson married Ruth Priest Millett [910]. Ruth, daughter of John Franklin Millett and Jane Kempton Freeman, was born 1 September 1893 at Mahone Bay, Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia [911]. She came from Nova Scotia to Cambridge, Middlesex County, Massachusetts, in 1904, and lived with Chester and Helen (Freeman) Mumler, her uncle and aunt [912, 913]. She graduated from Cambridge English High and Latin School, and was working as a stenographer at the time of her marriage to Nelson [910, 914]. Nelson continued to work for the Lewis Company, which made cotton batting. In 1928, the company was expanded, renamed the Kendall Company, and began specializing in cotton products for medical and surgical use. Also in 1928, Kendall acquired Bauer and Black, distributor of medical supplies. Nelson transferred to their Chicago headquarters as company controller. He and Ruth lived in Chicago, and Nelson worked for Bauer and Black, until his retirement in the early 1950s [908, 915]. By 1954, they were living at Clearwater, Pinellas County, Florida [916]. Nelson died there in August 1963, and Ruth in August 1969 [917].

187. Leslie Lindley McCully (Fred73, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1) was born 24 March 1898 at Fitchburg, Worcester County, Massachusetts [918]. He died 31 October 1898 at Fitchburg [919].

188. Kenneth Foss McCully (Fred73, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1) was born 22 August 1902 at Fitchburg, Worcester County, Massachusetts [920]. In 1914-1916, he lived with his family at Arlington, Middlesex County, then in August 1916 moved again to Dorchester, Suffolk County, Massachusetts. In the 1920s, Kenneth worked as a store clerk in Boston [921]; graduated from the Norfolk County Agricultural School in Walpole, Massachusetts [922]; and attended the Gordon College of Theology and Missions in Wenham, Massachusetts [923]. Between 1928 and 1933 he spent considerable time in Cuba, working for the United Fruit Company, and apparently returning to Massachusetts each winter [924]. It was in Cuba that he met Anita Gonzales, who was there working for the Red Cross. They were married 3 July 1930, in Orleans Parish, Louisiana [925]. Anita, daughter of Francisco Gonzales and Wenceslada Pena, was born 2 October 1907 [926] at San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas. Her early years were spent in

143

San Antonio [927], and in 1930 she was living with her widowed mother, employed as a nurse [928]. Probably 1929-1930 was her first period working in Cuba with the Red Cross [929]. Kenneth and Anita both continued visiting Cuba into 1933. It appears that they may have lived apart during the times they were not in Cuba, Kenneth returning to Massachusetts and Anita to Texas [930]. Anita may not have visited Massachusetts until 1934 when they settled at Saugus, Essex County, Massachusetts, their home for the rest of their lives. Kenneth was a horticulturist, and an expert on growing carnations. He owned and operated the Sim Carnation Company in Saugus until ca 1958, then he affiliated with the S. S. Pennock Company, wholesale florists in Boston [923]. He was active in both local and national horticultural societies, and served a term as secretary of the American Carnation Society. In 1949, he wrote a book on growing carnations, that has been widely cited [931]. Kenneth died 17 August 1966 [923]. Anita continued to live in Essex County, dying there 4 February 1998 [926]. Both were buried at Puritan Lawn Memorial Park, Peabody, Essex County, Massachusetts.

189. Elizabeth Carolyn McCully (Fred73, Horatio20, Samuel4, Samuel1) was born 9 January 1905 at Fitchburg, Worcester County, Massachusetts [932]. In 1914- 1916, she lived with her family at Arlington, Middlesex County, then in August 1916 moved again to Dorchester, Suffolk County, Massachusetts. Apparently, she had returned to Fitchburg, when on 9 June 1923 she married Anders E. Anderson [933]. Anders, son of John A. Anderson and Augusta Carlson, was born 29 March 1898 at Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts [934]. The family had moved to Worcester County, Massachusetts, by 1900 [935] and to Fitchburg by 1910 [936]. Both of Anders' parents had died by 1915, and he subsequently lived with his three younger siblings, and worked as a carpenter [937]. Elizabeth and Anders divorced before 1930, and Elizabeth returned to Dorchester, where she lived with her widowed mother, brother Coleman McCully, and her own daughter Priscilla [938]. Anders remained at Fitchburg with his brother and sister. On 13 February 1937 at Milford, New Hampshire, he married 2nd Hilia E. Luoma. Hilia, daughter of Matti Llluoma and Maria Kiikka, was born at Fitchburg ca 1897. She was a hairdresser, and it was her first marriage [939]. She and Anders continued to live at Fitchburg, where they raised two daughters, and where Hilia died 16 March 1976 [940]. About 1977, Anders married 3rd Yvonne M. (Desrosiers) Fisher, widow of Max S.

144

Fisher, who died 23 September 1975. Yvonne, daughter of Cleophase J. Desrosiers and Mary Brouillard, was born 7 December 1907 at La Patrie, Quebec, Canada. She had lived in Fitchburg most of her life [941]. She and Anders moved to Zephyrhills, Pasco County, Florida, shortly after their marriage. He died there 18 September 1994 [942]. Yvonne remained in Florida until 1998, then moved to New Hampshire. At the time of her death 30 November 2001, she was living at the Grafton County Nursing Home, North Haverhill, Grafton County, New Hampshire [941]. On 11 August 1934 at Seabrook, Rockingham County, New Hampshire, Elizabeth (McCully) Anderson married 2nd Edward Richard Seaton McNeil. Edward, son of William McNeil and Mary Young, was born in Glasgow, Scotland, 27 December 1896. He had come with his parents to the United States in 1901, and settled in Boston. He had married and divorced between 1920 and 1930; we were not able to determine the identity of his first wife [943, 944, 945]. Edward McNeil worked his whole married life for the Franklin Savings Bank, principally as an elevator operator. He and Elizabeth lived at Wellesley, Norfolk County, until ca 1945, then lived in Wollaston, Norfolk County, until some time after 1953. They had moved to Arlington, Middlesex County, by 1961 [946]. Edward died at Arlington 7 December 1953 [947]. Elizabeth moved to South Weymouth, Norfolk County, where her daughter and family were living. She died there 25 August 1965 [948]. Elizabeth and Edward had no children.

APPENDIX I WERE THE EARLY NOVA SCOTIA McCULLYS RELATED?

As noted in the introduction, three family lines of McCullys have been identified in early Nova Scotia, Canada. There are still many questions to be answered about their relationship to one another. A number of attempts have been made to link them [1]; so far, the results are unsatisfactory. Following is a review of our current knowledge.

THE THREE FAMILIES

Family Number One: Samuel and Elizabeth ([2]) McCully almost certainly came to Nova Scotia from Northern Ireland in 1761 on one of Alexander McNutt’s ships, probably Hopewell [3]. The Northern Ireland origins of most of the approximately 250 people in McNutt’s party are undetermined, but of sixteen families whose geographic origins are known, ten were from County Donegal and four were from County Derry. One speculation based on this is that “at least four- fifths of McNutt’s settlers were from the Foyle and Swilly districts and that most of the remainder were from the valley of the lower Bann” [4]. The limited records that have survived from Northern Ireland in the 1700s show McCullys in those same geographical areas, with names that are the same as the Nova Scotia settlers: there were Samuels in Lisnvavaghorg and Banagher, Londonderry; and Dernaflau, Londonderry, had William, Joseph, John, and Andrew. Somewhat removed from the above locations, Ballywitticcock and Drumgooland, County Down, also had Samuels [5]. One reason to be relatively confident that this McCully couple came on Hopewell is that their son, Joseph McCully, was reportedly "born in the barracks" in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 1762. This information was not put into print until 1900 [6], but the birth year is corroborated by cemetery records [7]. McNutt’s ships did not reach Halifax until October 1761, too late for the new arrivals to get settled on the land before winter, so the Government provided quarters for them [8]; ergo, "in the barracks." We have been unable to find any primary sources of information on this Samuel McCully. In fact, his name is known for certain on the basis of one 1788 land deed, wherein his sons Joseph and Samuel identify themselves as “the heirs of Samuel McCully Senr. (Senior) Deceased” [9]. From what we can gather from the few family records, land deeds, township books, and cemetery records, the following speculations seem reasonable: 1. Samuel and Elizabeth were only recently married when they departed

146

Northern Ireland in 1761. Assuming a typical age for first marriage at that period, Samuel might have been born ca 1735 to 1740, with Elizabeth perhaps as late as the early 1740s. 2. Samuel and Elizabeth had only three children, all born in Nova Scotia: Joseph (1762), Samuel (1764) and Elizabeth [1765-1766]. 3. Because both Samuel and Elizabeth were Irish, it is likely that they named their children by Scots-Irish tradition. If so, Samuel's parents could have been Joseph and Elizabeth McCully, and Elizabeth's father could have been a Samuel. 4. Samuel died in 1764 or 1765, after conceiving daughter Elizabeth but possibly before she was born, and before the first list of Londonderry, Nova Scotia, grantees was published in October 1765. His widow, Elizabeth, is named as the grantee [10]. 5. By 1767, Elizabeth McCully had married 2nd Hugh Teakles/Tackles. The 1770 census of Onslow, Nova Scotia showed the Teakles household with one man, one woman, two boys, and three girls [11]; undoubtedly they were Hugh, Elizabeth, Elizabeth's McCully children Joseph, Samuel and Elizabeth, and Elizabeth's first two daughters with Hugh Teakles, Isabel and Mary Ann. 6. The daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth, Elizabeth McCully, married James Clarke in Onslow in 1787 [12]. Hugh Teakles died in 1795 [13]. Elizabeth and Samuel's son, Samuel McCully, had married and moved his family to Hopewell, Albert (then, Westmorland) County, New Brunswick, by 1797. By 1799, Elizabeth and several of her Teakles children had also moved to Hopewell. In 1803, she was living there in the household of her son, William Teakles [14]. She undoubtedly died in either Albert or Kings county, New Brunswick, but no death date or burial site has been determined, so far. By 1800, the only descendants of Samuel and Elizabeth living in Nova Scotia were from the families of their eldest son Joseph McCully, and their daughter Elizabeth (McCully) Clarke.

Family Number Two. William McCully, reportedly born in Ireland ca 1746 [15], was probably the William McCully named as a grantee at Londonderry, Nova Scotia, in 1765. (Some have suggested that it was an older William, the father of this man, who was the original grantee, but I think there is ample evidence to refute that argument. See below.) As he was present in Londonderry in time to be a 1765 grantee, he almost certainly arrived with the McNutt Hopewell party in 1761. He would have been about 15 years old when he left Northern Ireland. At that age, he could have been traveling on his own, but it would seem an unlikely coincidence if he wasn't associated with McCully Family Number One. Nevertheless, to date nothing has come to light that clearly ties the two families together. After the 1765 Londonderry grant listing, the next certain record of any William McCully in Nova Scotia is from 1770, at which time a William reportedly owed money to the estate of the late Andrew Gamble [16]. Presumably it was that

147

William who married Isabella, who was probably a daughter of James Wilson [17], about 1772. The 1774 Londonderry census showed William McCully as head of a household comprised of a man, a woman, and a male child, the adults born in Ireland and the child in America [18]. The child would have been William's and Isabella's first son, Samuel McCully, born 1773. William and Isabella lived out their lives in the Londonderry area, and had children Samuel, Mary, William, Hugh, Margaret, John, Elizabeth, Isabella, and Robert. A number of the children continued to live there, and there are currently descendants of William and Isabella in Colchester County. Although both were presumed Irish, it does not appear that William and Isabella followed a traditional Scots-Irish method of naming children [19].

Family Number Three. This Samuel McCully, the earliest known of his line (and the principal subject of this genealogy) has not been discovered in Nova Scotia records (or anywhere else) before 1774. What is known about him has been covered in detail in Chapter One; general information that may be pertinent to tying this line to other McCully lines, or to other ancestors follows. 1. No records have been found that address whether this Samuel was born in Europe or in North America, or when and how he arrived in Nova Scotia. 2. His wife is so far unidentified, so we don't know if both sides of the family were Irish. It is suggestive that their third child was named Samuel, a typical Scots-Irish generational naming, but whether or not their older sons, William and John, were named for the paternal and maternal grandfathers is unknown. 3. This Samuel McCully had filled an "adult" role in 1774 (witnessing a deed [20]), so he was probably at least 18 years old at that point. His first child was born in 1781, suggesting a marriage year of around 1780. Combining the two records, a birth date between 1752 and 1756 seems a reasonable assumption. Samuel had died by 1788; his wife's whereabouts are unknown after that time; and all three of their sons had departed Nova Scotia before 1815, leaving none of his line in that province.

RELATIONSHIPS

Complicating determination of family relationships (if any) is the belief by some that the William McCully born ca 1746 was not the original Londonderry grantee, but that it was his father who obtained the land grant. In that scenario, the senior William brought his entire family to Nova Scotia in 1761, along with his brother Samuel and pregnant wife (Family Number One). Oral tradition describes "William Senior" as being badly injured in a fall from a horse shortly after arrival in Nova Scotia, but perhaps surviving as an invalid into the early 1800s. In this same tradition, his wife (name unknown) died at about the time of the American Revolution [21]. Other information (not necessarily arising from the same source)

148

includes in "William Senior's" family the William-born 1746, plus siblings Joseph, Elizabeth, and Samuel (the latter sometimes assumed to be the Samuel from Family Number Three) [22]. I think there is adequate justification to discount the possibility of an earlier William McCully family in Nova Scotia 1. No tombstone or death record has been found for any earlier William, his wife, or his alleged children (except for William born 1746, and Samuel from Family Three, if he was indeed part of this family). This is not entirely surprising, as finding death evidence from the 1700s is difficult for many families. I do find it curious that absolutely nothing has survived for any of them. 2. The record is clear from both 1765 and 1775 that only two grants of land were given to McCullys in Londonderry, Nova Scotia. The first, granted to Elizabeth McCully in lieu of her late husband Samuel, is well accounted for until sold by Samuel's heirs. If there was more than one other McCully of adult status, why wasn't more than one other share granted? William "Junior" (in this scenario) was apparently old enough in 1765 to qualify for land, and he certainly was in 1775. If there was a Joseph McCully in this family, he would have qualified in 1775 - and in 1765, if he was an older brother to William. The record is clear that Samuel of Family Three - whether or not he really belongs in Family Two - did not get a grant in Londonderry in either dispensation. 3. Deeds and other transactions: No record of a Joseph McCully is found in any document in Londonderry, except for the sale of Elizabeth McCully's original land grant by her sons, Samuel and Joseph McCully of Onslow, Nova Scotia. Samuel McCully of Family Three is first recorded in 1774 (see above). A William McCully is named in several contexts during the 1770s; while there is no way to tell if these involved an older or younger William, the types of activities recorded - serving on a jury, being executor of a will - do not seem like those to be undertaken by a man who had been an invalid for some years. The earliest deed found for a William McCully is from 1794, and clearly involved William-born 1746 and his wife Isabella. Each subsequent deed until 1805 are also clearly identified with that William. In 1805, William-born 1746 sold land to his son William, and on the deed they are identified as "William Senior" and "William Junior." Subsequent deeds through 1817 always showed the "Senior" and "Junior" designations [23]. If there had been an elder William, would these have been the identifying terms? 4. There is only one census available for Londonderry prior to 1800, that taken in 1773. Only one McCully household is included, that of a William McCully. The census found one man, one woman, and one boy - two Irish and one "American" (in this case, born in North America). There seems to be no question that this was William-born 1746, his wife Isabella, and their first son, Samuel, who was born in 1773. It has been suggested that other McCullys might have been living in other households, so they are unrecognizable in a census that only names the "head of

149 household" [24]. That would certainly be feasible for the three alleged siblings of William, but it seems highly unlikely to me that an invalid patriarch William (and possibly his wife, at that date) would have been "farmed out." 5. I noted above that William and Isabella McCully do not seem to have followed the traditional Irish naming pattern for their children. While not unheard of, it would be unusual for two families direct from Ireland to have deviated greatly from tradition. Birthdates of some of the known children are not known, some have been estimated from marriages and other later events, and there is room chronologically for several currently unaccounted for children to have been born to the couple. If the currently understood naming pattern is a reflection of incomplete data, rather than the actual naming sequence, it is unlikely that William's father would have been named William. 6. I've been unable to determine how long ago the current tradition of an earlier William McCully surfaced, but it seems possible that it was as recently as the 1970s or 1980s [25]. If that was the case, long-term remembrances could have become confused with erroneous information that appeared in print in more recent times. For example, a paper from 1967 wrongly identified Samuel, the first son of William and Isabella (Family Two), as Samuel, the second son in Family One [26]. The misplacement of the latter Samuel into Family Two brought with him his two siblings, Joseph and Elizabeth. When the error of the Samuels was discovered, it left an "extra" Samuel in Family Two, along with a misplaced Joseph and Elizabeth, who had to be accounted for. My speculation is that it was this "phantom family" that became the rest of the presumed early family of William McCully-born 1746 [27].

* * * The only part of the tradition of the early family not explainable from the above is "the patriarch's" fall from a horse, and subsequent infirmity. Accidents involving horses appear to have been very common in early Canada and America, and "early incapacitation or death would explain the absence of data regarding the career of William the grantee" [28]. While that is true, such an accident could have happened to any number of McCullys in the 200-plus years since the settlement of Londonderry. The incident may have occurred, but not necessarily to the person memorialized in oral history [29].

* * * No concrete evidence connecting Family One and Family Two has yet been found, but the fact that both family heads - Samuel (through his widow Elizabeth) and William - were named as Londonderry grantees in 1765 is strongly suggestive that both arrived on the Hopewell in 1861. From there, it is an easy step to surmise that they had traveled together from Northern Ireland as some sort of family unit. From the information available, the nature of that relationship -

150 brothers, cousins, uncle and nephew - is not so easily determined. So far, beyond the McCully name and the location, there is nothing to tie Family Three to either of the other two.

This major distortion occurred within two generations, not the five or six that had elapsed before the telling of the Londonderry story.
