The Find Ley Family

The collection of the records for this genealogy has
been done as a hobby for over twenty years and it has been
interesting and a pleasure. I have received so many inter-
esting letters along with the records. When I started col-
lecting records I had no idea that it would become a geneal-
ogy. After I had received so much valuable genealogical in-
formation and history from the descendants, county records,
wills, deeds, cemetery records, histories, military service
records and census records, I decided that it should be
printed so that it would be preserved for the use of all who
may ba interested. I have also included addresses.

With permission, I have included the Findley ancestry
back to the year 1236 from "Torrence and Allied Families".
I learned that a few of the descendants had started keeping
the Findley records many, many years ago and never completed
them, 1 was fortunate in being able to use these early re-
cords, without which I may not have been so successful.

No doubt, there will be some errors in a genealogy of
this size. I have been able to verify some records, espec-
ially dates, which have been sent to me incorrectly. Some
few descendants to whom I have written for records did not
send them, this is regrettable, but I have done my best. It
is hoped that the present generation and those to come will
continue with each family record. There are some lines which
are not continued and all record of them seems to be lost. I
will welcome any further information or clues to their location,

I want to express my sincere gratitude to all of those
who have assisted me.

Attention: Librarian ... ^

Under separate cover, I am mailing you a copy
of my Fowler Genealogy ( John Fowler, 1799-1891) published in
1974, as a gift. John Fowler is my husband's ancestor. There
are copies of this book in the following libraries: D. A. R.
Library, Washington, D. C. ; ; Indiana State Library, Indianapolis,
Indiana and the Kansas State Historical Society Library in Topeka,
Kansas.

You have copies of two of my other books ,
Willicim Brown Genealogy and Findley Genealogy (David Findley,
1762-1849) in your library. These were gifts from Mrs. Harold
Anderson.

Concerning the Fiiidley. Genealogy, after I had
mailed all of the books, I discovered that 1 had copied or failed
to copy one-half line, I should say, and I am sending you the
correction. This early Findley record was copied from "Torrance
& Allied Families" by Robert M. Torrance in 1933. On page 7 in
paragraph 12, James Finley, in my book, please paste this correction
where it belongs. Note on page 3 that I have: James Finley, bapt.
May 16, 1629, at St. Andrew's Church, Inchervie, Fif'i, Scotland,
which is correct. I mailed ftes, Anderson this correction shortly
after she bought the book from me, but just in case that you may
not have received it from her, I am mailing one to you,

I had the pleasure of working in your great
library three years ago for a few days Tvhilo I was visiting my
aunt who is a LDS member.

I might add that I also had the Hughes Genealogy
(Ellis Hughes, 1776-1850) published in 1970 and that t here =; copies
of it in the Indiana State Library, Indianapolis, Indiana, and in
the D. A. R. Library in Washington, D. C. This book is about the
size of the Findley and the Brown Genealogies, I should have had
a few more copies printed.

FINDLEYS

The name FINDLEY is quite common in the colonial history
of our country. Early in the 18th century there were settlers
in Virginia and Pennsylvania bearing the name. In Pennsylvania,
they were associated with the Scotts, Sneers, Galbraiths,
Mitchells, Westbays and other oioneer families. The name has
a variety of soellings: Findlev, Findlay and Finley, even in
the same families, however, the spelling Findlev is used by
all the descendants of David and Jane (Mitchell; Find ley. All
of them anpear to have come from a common stock in Scotland
and the North of Ireland. The Findleys were descendants of
one of the old signers of the "Solemn League and Covenant of
Scotland" and another ancestor bore a prominent part in the
memorable siege of Londonderry. Ref: Biog. of Wm. Findley (1741-
1821), "Colonial and Revolutionary Families of America" by
Jordan, Pub. 1911, page 678. This Wm. Findley was a half-
brother of our David Findley (1762-1849). They were a religious
people of the Presbyterian faith and gave themselves to the
founding and maintenance of church, both in Ireland and in the
wilderness of America,

Our ancestor, James Finley, bapt. May 16, 1629, at St.
Andrew's Church, Inchervie, Fife, Scotland, left Scotland be-
cause of the persecution of Presbyterians, going to Londonderry,
Ireland, It is recorded that he was the one who changed the
spelling of his name to FINDLEY because of the large number of
Finleys in Ireland, William Findley, from whom our branch of
the family descended, resided in Belfast, County Antrim, Ireland,
was in the woolen trade in Londonderry and Belfast until 1773
when, with his family, came to America on the brig "Eagle Wing".
Some of his sons by a former marriage preceded him to America.
His son, Hon. William Findley (1741-1821) of Latrobe, Pa., by
his first wife, Jane Holland Steele, says that, while under his
father's roof he had the advantage of a larger number of books
than was possessed by most of his neighbors, books on church
history and divinity. He also says that his father came over
to Pennsylvania late in life and was well received,

William Findley, Sr, , had the following children by his
first wife, Jane Holland Steele, who died Feb. 21, 1857, in
Belfast: Archibald, Alexander, John, James, Hon, William, Samuel,
and Andrew. He married second to Mrs. Martha Drennen, nee
Dreamer, the widow of Daniel Drennen and mother of three children
born in Ireland, a son and two daughters, 1758, Rev. Phillip
Howell Drennen, bom Feb. 26, 1826, a United Presbyterian
Church minister, was a grandson of Mrs. Martha Drennen Findley.
To this union were born three children:

1, Margaret Findley married Matthew Bigger, Westmoreland Co,,
Pa, (See Bigger records,)

2, David Findley, (1762-1849), County Antrim, Ireland, married
Jane Mitchell, April 17, 1787, Westmoreland County, Pa,

3, Jane Findley married James McConnell, had 8 children. See

Find Ley Ancestry

1. Fearchar was chief of a powerful clan known as Clan Fion-
nladh, a sept of the great confederation, Jlan Chat ton,
which held large possessions in Strathdie in the Pj^i^h of
Crothie, in the Braces of Mar, at the head of Aberdeenshire,

Scotland, in the year 1236. . j ^ j •

FioAnladh, from which the name Finley is derived is a
combination of the Gaelic words, Fionn, meaning Fergus,
and Ladh, meaning boy or child. From this root have come
the different spellings, such as Finleg, Finlegh, Finley,
Finlay, Findley and Findlay. All are pure Scotch and id-
entical in origin. ^ ^ *
Fearchar is said to have been a lineal descendant ot
the ancient Thanes of Ross and Moray, of whom the most fam-
ous was Macbeth. Malcolm II, was King of Scotland from 1005
to 1034, A. D. His second wife was Aelifu, of whom he had
three daughters. The youngest of these, Donada, married
Finlegh, or Finley McRuaidhri, the Earl of Moray, Chief of
Clan Fionnladh, who ruled over a large portion of northern
Scotland, including the present Shire of Ross. Their son
was McBida McFinlay, or Macbeth, born circa 1005 A. D. who
became King of Scotland from 1039 to 1056. Macbeth married
Gruach, a daughter of Bodhe, and the widow of Gilcomgain,
The succession is carried on by MacBoetha McFinlay, Thane
of Cromarty, 1060 to 1093, who married Bethoca, daughter of
Andrew McBrad. Their son, Rory or Ruari McFinlay, was Thane
of Cromarty in 1152. Their son, Fergus McFinlay, was living
in Cromarty in 1210. Their son, Eochiod, or Euginius, some-
times Shaw McDubh, was murdered by Walter Seneschal of Scot-
land, in 1223 A. D. His son, Fearchar, Chief of Clan Fion-
nladh, was living in 1236 in Aberdeenshire, and married a
daughter of Patrick MacDonachadh. (Genealogists have traced
this family connections through the various kings of Scotland
and Ireland, to the House of Heremon, but for the ourpose of
this sketch, a start will be made with Fearchar, and if space
will permit, the earlier records will be inserted later).

Fearchar' s descendants settled on the borders of the Shires
of Perth and Angus. It appears that his large family of sons
adopted the following names: McFarchar, or Farquharson, McFinlay,
Finlay and Finlayson.

Fearchar' s second son, Archibald Fynlay, or Finlay, will
be the only one mentioned.

2. Archibald Finlay, distinguished himself in the battle of
Largs, in Ayrshire, on Oct. 2, 1263, between the Socts and the
Norwegians, in which the Scots were successful. From this
Archibald are descended the Finlays of Balchristie, Fife. In
a charter, dated, Nov. 12, 1314, Archibald Finlay is mentioned
as occupying one- ha If marcote of land in Rousknot, Perthshire,
and as having married Margaret, a daughter of William Robertson.
Children of Archiblad and Margaret Finlay were three.

3. William Finlay, third child, married Isabell Dempster. He
is mentioned in the Aberdeen Charter, No. 8, as follows: "Of
the Prior of Rousknot Abbey concerning purchase of King Robert
I, of lands of Rousknot and their land in Perthshire." Inquis-

itlon has been made by WiLllam Flnlay, the Forester, and
others of the King's tenants-in-chief in Perthshire, and
confirmed at Dundee, Mar. 16, 1307. The said William Finlay
married Isabell, daughter of Thomas Dempster, Laird of Murisk,
and his wife Eleanor Forbes, a niece and co-heir of Viscount
Forbes. Child of William and Isabel (Dempster) Finlay:

4. Andrew Finlay is mentioned in a Royal Charter dated August
3, 1366: "Confirmatory Charter of the Prior of Rousknot, that
Andrew Finlay son of William Finlay, and Andrew Demoster, the
uncle of the said Andrew and John Finlay of Cullace, por-
tioners of Menmur, in Perthshire, confirm the gifts of an
annual of eight pounds of goods, as tithe of the lands of
Menmur, Perth, to the Prior and Cannons of Rousknot, given at
Kennelli, Oct. 8, 1360, confirmed Aug. 1366". "Grant of King
Robert II, to Andrew Finlay, of certain fees for exercising
the office of Sheriffdon, Perth, amercements granted to Andrew
and his heirs to be held as their fees, hereditary, forever,
confirmed at Kyndrocht, July 9, 1379." Andrew Finlay had mar-
ried Marjorie McDonald, niece and co-heir of John McDonald,

of Perth. Children of Andrew and Marjorie (McDonald) Finlay
were four.

5. John Finlay, second son, married Eleanor Stewart. John
Finlay was Bishop of Dumblain in 1406; died in 1445. His title
was that of Reginald of the Isles, of the whole Thange of
Glentilt, being three devaches of land for his faithful ser-
vices, to be held by himself in fee heritage forever for the
pajnnent of eleven merksmen and the carriage of four horses
once a year for hunting in the Forest of Bencromby. He mar-
ried Eleanor, daughter of John Stewart, of Fothergill, Child-
ren of John and Eleanor (Stewart) Finlay were six.

6. John Finlay, first child, married Mary MacRae. John Finlay
is mentioned in a Retour at Logyrate, in the Court of John,
Earl of Atholl, whereby, on 29, July, 1457, he granted Glen-
tilt to his son, John Stewart, which formerly belonged to
Finlay, Tochach (meaning Chief, or Earl), and by which h« vol-
untarily resigned the Thanage of Glentilt, comprising seven-
teen townships. On July 29, 1457, John Finlay is served as
heir to his father, John Le Thane, of Glentilt, in the hands

of Pepnocrife in Stralhguay. The said John Finlay, son of heir
of John, Bishop of Dumblain, evidently sold this land, as he
is represented in the rental books of the Cupar Angus Cist-
ercian Abbey, as living in the townships of Kethyk, in Cupar
Grange, Forfashire, 1457-1461, having obtained, on Oct. 10,
1457, a lease of a one- twelfth portion of the Grange for five
years. He died in 1461, having married Mary MacRae, who was
a widow in 1462. As relict of John Finlay, she is described
on Jan. 20, 1462, as obtaining; from Cuoar Angus Abbey a re-
newal of her husband's one- twelfth portion for five years, pay-
ing on entry a tax of five marks. Child of John and Mary
(MacRae) Finlay:

7. John Finlay married Joneta Rogers. John Finlay is ment-
ioned in a Retour as having in 1463, one- sixth portion of

of Combreyeland at Pentacoast, Forfashire, and he figures in
different leases up to 1497. He died prior to t 507 , having
married Jonets Rogers, who, as widow and relict of John Fmlay
is described on March 9, 1507, as obtaining a lease of a por-
tion of the lands of Downey, in the Barony of Glenisla. She
was the daughter of William Rogers, a renter of Cupar Range,
who, in 1457, had a lease of one- twelfth portion for seven years,
and the lease was renewed, in 1468, by his son, William Rogers,
Jr., who died in 1508. His son, William Rogers III, married
Marjorie Blair, daughter of William Blair, Bailiff of Cupar
Angus. On May 1, 1542, he obtained from Abbott Donald Campbell
a life lease of that portion of land leased by his father and
by his grandfather. William Rogers III appears as Sheriff De-
puty on April 23, 1544. Children of John and Joneta (Rogers)
Finlay were two.

8. Andrew Finlay, second son, married Janet Hay. Andrew Finley
(The change in spelling from Finlay to Finley is found in var-
ious documents relating to this family.), according to the re-
ntal books of Cupar Angus Abbey, leased a one- fourth portion

of Aughinlyth, at Pentecoast, for five years, and figures in
different rentals up to 1546. In 1507, he appears as Bailiff
of Cupar Angus, and in 1542, as Sheriff. In this capacity, he
was associated with Donald Campbell and David Campbell, the
grandsons of the Earl of Argyll. There is an Aberdeen Charter
of Sale, 1491, by Andrew Finley, of Aughinlythe, to John Stewart
of Fothergill, of the lands of Achnamackmore, and this was fol-
owed by a notorial instrument taken by John Finley, son and
heir of the late Andrew Finley, April 27, 1547, of the rights
and reversions of the lands for twenty pounds payable in one
day between sunrise and sunset. There is then a precept of
sasine by Andrew Finley in favor of Neill Stewart, as son and
heir of Neill Stewart, given at Glentilt, June 4, 1545, in
presence of John, son of heir of Andrew Finley, and on Aug.
13, 1501, a Charter of Sale to Eleanore, Countess of Atholl.
John Stewart, Earl of Atholl 's seal, and the seal of Andrew

died at Aughinlyth, Cupar Angus, prior to 1547, Andrew Finley
married Janet Hay, a daughter of John Hay, of Erroll, Perthshire,
a descendant of David De Haya, Sheriff of Forfashire, 1214, A.D.
and also of William de la Haya, Cup Bearer to Malcolm IV, as
he styled himself in a Charter in 1172, when he received the
lands of Erroll in Perthshire. John Hay of Erroll was a great
grandson of Sir Gilbert Hay, a steadfast adherent of Robert
Bruce. The Parish Register of Cupar Angus Abbey records the
baptisms of their children. Children of Andrew and Janet (Hay)
Finley were five.

DAVID FINDLEY (L762-1S49)

David Findley was born In Belfast, County Antrim, Ireland,
in 1762, died in New Concord, Muskin.e;u'n County, Ohio, in 1849.
He came to America with his father, William Findley, in 1773-4
and resided for a time in CuTiberland County, Pennsylvania, but
later crossed the mountains and settled in the "Forks of the
Yough", in that portion of Westmoreland County which, in 1788,
was organized as Allegheny County, Here he was a land owner,
his name being on the tax list of Elizabeth township and in
1790, he was listed among the heads of families in the census.

The year of 1782 was a time of unrest along the Western
Frontier. The country was still at war with Great Britian and
the Indian allies of the British were making furious attacks
upon the scattered settlements. Hannastown, the capital of
Westmoreland, was burned by the Indians, and all along the border
many settlers with their families were killed. In the campaign
of this year, the Westmoreland militia was called into service
and on the roll of its soldiers are the names of David Findley,
Matthew Mitchell and James Scott. Ref. Penn. Archives.

In 1806, David Findley, true to the pioneer spirit of his
people, moved again with his family to Muskingum County, Ohio,
following the "Zane Trace" and settling in Union township. This
township was surveyed in 1893 and its first settlers were Wm.
Hardy, Henry Reasoner, a family by the name of Wilson and David
Findley. Here David Findley purchased land of Henry Reasoner
who had entered a tract of land two years before, the southwest
quarter of section one.

The first houses in the settlement were built of logs
and roofed with clapboards held down with weighted poles.
Judge David Findley, being more prosperous than most of his
neighbors, covered his house, in 1809, with lap shingles and
wrought iron nails, the latter being a luxury few could afford,
the first in the county outside of Zanesville. The first brick
house built in Union township was that of Judge Findley in New
Concord in 1828. He had the first apple orchard in the area.
In 1815,, he bought the John Reasoner grist mill on Salt Creek.
The first carding and fulling mill in New Concord was built
by Judge Findley. He laid out the town of New Concord along
the line of the National Road. The new Concord United Pres-
byterian Church was originally known as "Crooked Creek Church",
the first meeting-house being situated about one mile southwest
of the village of New Concord, It was connected with what was
then known as the Associate Reform Church. It is said that
the first Associate Reform Church preaching in this county was
in Judge Findley' s bam, not far from the nresent residence of
David Stormant, (1882), Ref: History of Muskingum County, Ohio,
Pub, 1882 by J. Everhart.

James Findley first introduced short-horn Durham cattle
from Kentucky in 1840. In 1852, James Findley and John Patter-
son built a grist mill at New Concord, near the railroad depot,
with three run of buhrs.

Judge Findlev was defeated for U. S. Senator in 1809, but
was elected Associate Judge in his county from 1813 to 1820;
in 1828, the village of New Concord was laid out on a portion
of his farm. On July 9, 1836, citizens met to consider the

10

establishment of an academy. Judge Findley was chosen as
chairman and among the members of the first board of trustees
was William Findley. This academy became Muskingum College.

Our ancestor apoears to have been a man of quick temper,
at times stem and brusque in his manner, but of great kind-
liness of disposition. It is related of him, that one year
when there had been a general failure of the harvest, he was
fortunate in having a good croo of wheat. One day a stranger
from a distant place came to him to buy seed wheat. Mr. Findley
asked him if he had the money to pay for his intended purchase.
The stranger replied that he had and pulled the gold out of
his pocket. "Then" said Mr. Findley, "go over yonder to my
neighbor, he will sell you wheat for your money, I am saving
mine for some poor devil who has no money."

Mr. Findley was not an abolitionist or a reformer in the
modern sense. Yet he was highly esteemed for his integrity
and public spirit; he was one of the men who "won the west",
laying in the wilderness the foundations of industry, educat-
ion and religion, upon which have been builded the institutions
of a Christian community. In politics, he was a Whig.

Excerpt from History of New Concord and Muskingum College,
Ohio, written by Rev. Wm. A. Findley, grandson of Judge Findley.

"My Grandfather with his wife and six sons, Matthew, Abel,
William, John, David and James came to the place now occupied
by the town and college when it was almost in its original
state of forest. Clearing soon began, blacksmith shop, coop-
erage, saw-mill and water grist mill were started and later
on when grain began to be raised, a distillery was started to
put into cashable form the surplus grain. Grandfather had taken
up a very large body of land making large farms for each of his
sons, reaching from the Guernsey County line on the east, north
and south of the road to the west, to the county road that leads
from the main road to the south to the old Crooked Creek Church
to which they all belonged. The need of a town appeared and
they laid it out, calling it New Concord, They started stores
of different kinds. Uncle William was the storekeeper and fin-
ancial head of the family. Uncle Abel was the distiller. John,
my father had his farm on the east. The whole country in and
around New Concord was owned and entered by my Grandfather and
his sons. One more thing I wish to say here to show that this
Grandfather of mine had a good level business head on him. When
the National Government sent her representatives to survey a
route for a road from Wheeling, West Va. , (The National Road),
Grandfather exerted enough influence to cause them to adopt
the present site which the National Turnpike occupies today.
True, it was a great thing for his large holdings, but it was
an even greater thing for the entire community, the college,
and the town, even unto this day."

a son born in 1737 of our William Findley and his first wife,

his Revolutionary War services. The following was noted after
his name in the 1840 census. Union Twp. , Muskingum Co., Ohio:
"David Findley, 78, served in Revolutionary War but has not
applied for a pension". I have, personally, checked the pension
records in the Archives in Washington, D. C. for a pension for
him and there is none. I found the pension record for the

names of all of his children and their ages.

James Renwick Wilson was born Jan. 7, 1843 In Salt Creek
township, Muskingum County, Ohio, the 5th of the family of
Robert and Elizabeth (Jamison) Wilson. Robert Wilson bom
in 1809 on the farm settled bv his father, southwest of New
Concord.

James R. attended school in Union and Rich Hill townships.
In November, 1861, following the outbreak of the Civil War,
he enlisted in Co. A, 78th Ohio Vol. Infantrv. He took part
in battles of Shiloh, Vicksburg, Corinth and others. He was
taken prisoner at Vicksburg and sent to Columbus, Ohio. He
was later exchanged and rejoined his regiment. He fought val-
iently under General Grant, being a sharp shooter, and for a
time served as a body quart of Grant. He also fought under
General Sherman, and in the bloody Battle of Atlanta, was
wounded. A rifle ball stricking him in the left shoulder,
passed under the shoulder blade and lodged in the vertebra
This ball was never removed and it went into the grave with
his body. Near the close of the war, Mr. Wilson was promoted
to sergeant. When the war ended, he returned home and engaged
in farming.

Mr. Wilson was a good soldier. His patriotism and dev-
otion to his country continued through life and at death a
beautiful United States flag, draping his coffin, was lowered
into the grave with his bodv. Thus he and the Stars and Stripes
kept company to the end.

Oct. 18, 1866, Mr. Wilson married Miss Jennie Thompson,
of Peters Creek, Guernsey County, Ohio. She was a daughter of
Gordon and Eliza (Walker) Thompson. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson were
the parents of seven children: Clarence M. , Joseph F. , Bessie
G. , Findley M. , J. Walker., Robert S. and Eva.

May 31, 1882, Mrs. Wilson passed away after a lingering
illness. She was forty years of age. She was a devout member
of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of New Concord. Mr. Wilson
was a life- long member of the same church, and contributed lib-
erally of his time and means to its support.

Mr. Wilson's second marriage occurred Nov. 6, 1884 to Miss
Nannie A. Dew, a native of Monroe township, and a daughter of
Thomas and Jane (Wallace) Dew. To this marriage one daughter,
Edna M. , was bom. The mother died Oct. 23, 1887 at the age
of 36. Mrs. Wilson was an estimable Christian woman, a member
of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, to which she devoted much
of her time. She was a former teacher at Fox Creek, 1882-1883.

Mr. Wilson's third marriage was to Miss Elizabeth Galbraith,
of Olathe, Kansas, on Aug. 5, 1897. Returning to Ohio, the
couple resided in New Concord until 1905. Then after a two
year residence in Pennsylvania with their sons. Walker and
Findley, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson returned to Olathe, where they
continued to live until the death of Mrs. Wilson, Dec. 30, 1928
at the age of 81. Mr. Wilson then came to live at the home of
his son, Dr. Findley Wilson, in Philadelphia. Here he remained
until his death, passing away, Feb. 13, 1930, at age of 87.

James R. Wilson was a consistent. Christian gentleman,
mild, dignified and easy in his manner, hp held the confidence
and respect of all who knew him. All measures of morality,
education, temperance, and others of a like nature, found him
a strong advocate. (Copied from "Historical and Biographical
Memoirs of Fox Creek School" by F. E. Geyer, New Concord, 1945.

From the Evening Bulletin, Philadelphia, Pa., Mar. 18, 1929.

Guarded U. S. Grant before Vicksburg. Aged Veteran who saw
Gen. McPherson killed comes to live with son here.

After sixty- five years, James Renwick Wilson, a veteran
of the Civil War, remembers the meal given to Union soldiers
by the women of Philadelohia when he passed through the city
one night in the winter of 1864 on his way to join Sherman in
his march to the sea.

Of the city itself he recalls nothing save the enthusiasm
of the welcome and the meal - chicken, sweet ootatoes, Irish
Dotatoes, tumios, oound cake and pie. Philadelohia, he says,
has lingered in his mind along with other memories of the War
of the Rebellion, as a symbol for good cooking.

Mr. Wilson, now eighty- six, came to Philadelphia recently
from Olathe, Kansas, to reside with his son, the Rev. Findley
M. Wilson, 2410 N. Marshall St., oastor of the Third Church of
the Covenanters, Franklin and Daunhin Sts.

An eye witness of the death of General James B. McPherson
during the fighting around Atlanta in July, 1864, Mr. Wilson
carries a vivid recollection of General Grant at Vicksburg, and
relates an unusual incident in the life of General John A. Logan.

On the brief visit to Philadelphia Mr. Wilson relates:
"I had been wounded and was returning to active service with a
party of about 300 men. We were on the train several days,
and were pining for a good meal. We were marched to a large
hall, where ladies of the city had prepared one. It was one
of the oleasantest memories of the war. "

Mr. Wilson, who is a grand-nephew of James Renwick Wilson,
famous chaplain of the War of 1812, enlisted in the 78th Ohio
Infantry, at Zanesville, on Halloween night, 1861, and served
to the end of the war, attaining the rank of lieutenant. Three
brothers also served with the Union forces, an elder brother
being killed at the battle of Shiloh.

At the siege of Vicksburg he was detailed as a sharpshooter,
as part of the guard thrown around the staff of General U. S.
Grant, and recalls seeing the General visiting various posit-
ions of his line.

"General Grant passed my post on several occasions, always
walking alone, and invariably with an unlighted cigar in his
mouth." Mr. Wilson said. "He gave one the impression of being
in deeo thought and seemed an unusually quiet and detached man.
General Lew Wallace, author of 'Ben Hur,' was my division com-
mander before Vicksburg."

During the fightirig around Fort Donelson in Tennessee,
General Logan mounted on a roan horse, was directly in the rear
of Mr. Wilson's company during an advance. A bullet struck
General Logan's horse and carried away part of the animal's
mane, but did not seriously injure it. General Logan swore with
rage, and jumped from his mount. Turning to his orderly, he
said, 'Here, take this animal out of here before it gets badly
hurt. • Then he walked out in front of our company and led
the charge on foot."

Mr. Wilson speaks of the day of General McPherson' s death

43

as "the bloody 22d of July." General Hood, a Confederate Com-
mander, durinp the ni^ht, circled to the rear of McPherson's
division, and his riflemen caught the Union force between a
cross fire.

"The fiehting was the hottest when the Confederates
attacked a thicket occupied by our men," said Mr. Wilson.
"General McPherson hurried to that noint on his horse, acco-
mpanied by his orderly, a twelve-year old boy. A bullet killed
him almost instantly, and what followed was one of the strang-
est things I have ever seen.

"General McPherson's orderly, this twelve-year boy, dis-
mounted and stood there holding both animals while Southerners
swept around him. Our men drove them back in a hand-to-hand
fight, one of our standard-bearers saving the colors by beat-
ing off several of the enemy with his fists.

"During all this melee, the Southerners ignored the Gen-
eral's orderly standing at the head of the two horses. 1 am
convinced that they saw he was just a child, and were too manly
to molest him. "

During the day's engagement, Mr. Wilson's company, 100
strong, suffered seventy-eight casualties. His fortune was a
"minnie" ball which Pierced his left shoulder, and lodged in
his back, close to his spine. The bullet was not located until
an X-ray revealed its position. It is still there.

Clarence M. Wilson, oldest son of James R. Wilson
received his grade school education at Fox Creek school in
Muskingum County, Ohio, at age of 18, heeded Horace Greely's
admonition "Go West young man". Locating in Kansas, he en-
gaged in farming for some time. Attending Normal School a
few months, and devoting much time to home study, he succeeded
in passing teacher's examination. He taught in the public
schools of the state for several years, and was eminently
successful as an instructor. In the fall of 1894, he entered
Western Dental College, Kansas City, Missouri, graduating in
spring of 1897, with DDS degree, he established offices in
Rosedale, Kansas. He later located inOlathe where he con-
tinued his practice until his death in 1918. In connection
with his work in Olathe, he continued to maintain offices in
Rosedale, and in DeSota, Kansas. He was a hard worker, always
applying himself vigorously, whatever the task. He was not
ashamed to admit that he had gone in debt for most of his
education. By close application to business and strict
adherence to the principles of the Golden Rule, he became one
of the leading dentists of the state. Inheriting many of the
sterling principles of honesty and integrity of character of
his father, he enjoyed the esteem and respect of all who knew
him.

Ada Marie Wilson, the eldest daughter of Clarence M.
Wilson, graduated from Geneva College, June 1917, A. B. degree;
attended Kansas University and Northwestern University. She
taught in the high school at Turner, Kansas, for two years;
Washington, Iowa, four years, and in the American Academy for
Girls at Nicosia, Island of Cyprus, four years.

Mr. Hutcheson is a graduate of Sterling College; Teacher's
College, Columbia University, obtaining his AB degree from
the former and his MA degree from the latter. Together the
couple attended Biblical Seminary, New York, one semester. In
February, 1928, they sailed for Syria, where they were engaged
in missionary work for 13 years. Returning to the United States
in 1941 on furlough, Mr. Hutcheson engaged in teaching. For
two years he held the position of Professor of Social Science
at Tarkio College, U. P. Tarkio, Missouri. Regarding Syria
as the field of their remaining life work, they returned as
soon as war conditions permitted. They taught in Reformed
Presbyterian Mission, Latakia, Syria, 13 years.

Findley M. Wilson graduated from Muskingum College in
1895. He entered the Reformed Presbyterian Theological
Seminary the next fall, and was ordained Co the ministry in

1899. During the next 13 years he held pastorates at Renfrew,
Pa., Youngstown, 0., Parnassus, Pa., and Winchester, Kansas.
In 1912, he was called to the Third Church of the Covenanters
in Philadelphia, where he has remained for the oast 33 years.

In conjunction with his duties as minister and pastor
he is corresponding secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions
of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of North America, a position
with many responsibilities, and which he has held for the oast
30 years. He is also President of the Board of Corporators
of Geneva College, and a member of the Board of Superintend-
ents Theological Seminary of the Reformed Presbyterian Church
of North America, Pittsburgh. He was Moderator of the National
Synod of the R. P. Church of North America, 1919-1920; is Sec-
retary and occasional platform lecturer National Reform Ass'n
of Pittsburgh. He was editor and publisher of "Olive Trees"
a missionary magazine for six years; also associate editor
of Covenanter Witness several years, and editor-in-chief for
one year.

"Who's Who" among the religious leaders of America places
Dr. Wilson upon the highest pinacle of success in the eccles-
iastical field, and his services and counsel are sought thr-
oughout North America.

In 1931, Dr. Wilson and his wife were members of a deput-
ation sent to visit mission fields in the Near Elast, going by
way of London, Paris, Geneva and the Mediteranian to the Island
of Cyprus, Syria and Turkey. They visited the Holy Land by
motor car, and later journeyed to Egypt and saw the mission
work in Cairo. In a letter to the writer some years ago. Dr.
Wilson refers to this trip as one of the most rewarding ex-
periances of his entire life.

In the heavy responsibilities carried by Dr. Wilson down
through the years, he has been ably assisted by his good wife,
the former Miss Laura Anderson, to whom he married July 17,

1900. Mrs. Wilson is a cultured. Christian lady, eminently
qualified for the many duties incident to her lot as the wife
of a preacher whose duties and responsibilities are exception-
ally heavy.

Of the many Fox Creek boys and girls who achieved out-
standing success in life, Findley Wilson stands high in the
list. As a boyhood schoolmate and college classmate, the
writer recalls that Findley was a good student, and early
manifested an aptitude for public speaking. He has been em-
inently successful in his chosen profession, and today is
recognized as one of the outstanding preachers of the countrv.
His old Fox Creek friends are proud of his success.

John Walker Wilson received his grade school training
at Fox Creek. He continued his studies in the Department of
Music in Muskingum College. He then took a course in butter
and cheese making at Ohio State University, completing the
course with highest honors. For some years he was employed
in creameries in Byesville and New Concord as Operating Sup-
erintendent. He then spent several years in Pittsburgh, Pa.,
and Youngstown, Ohio. In 1904, the family moved from Yovmgs-
town to Beaver Falls, Pa. where Walker accepted a position
with the Kaystone Driller Company, manufacturers of wall drills,
pumps and power shovels. After advancing to the position of
Chief Office Clerk and assistant to the General Manager in
the sales department of the company, he resigned his position
and established a business in Youngstown in order to represent
Keystone Driller Company and other manufacturing companies as
District Sales Agent. This business increased until he re-
presented some eight or ten of the most prominent manufacturers
on construction, industrial and mining machinery, under the
name of J. Walker Wilson Machinery Company. He is a member
of Associated Equipment Distributors, an international organ-
ization.

While his business made heavy demands upon his time, he
always devoted much time to religious and educational work.
He served as an elder in the Reformed Presbyterian Church for
more than forty years. He was a member of the Board of Trustees
of Geneva College for more than twenty years, and a member of
the Board of Corporators of Geneva College for several years.

Mr. and Mrs. Wilson are worthy m«nber of the College
Hill Reformed Presbyterian Church of Beaver Falls. Their son
Robert F. and wife and John Find ley are also members of this
church. Mr. Wilson served as chairman of the Elders Conference
of the National Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church for
a period of two years, from June, 1943 to June, 1945. This is
an Association composed of the Lay Delegates to the Synod. Mr.
Wilson was also a member of a permanent committee of the Nat-
ional Synod, whose function is to keep a complete file of all
members of the Reformed Presbyterian Church who are in the
armed forces, and also of those who are employed in war work
which takes them out of the bounds of their respective cong-
regations. This committee keeps in contact with these members
by correspondence, and will untimately cooperate in their re-
habilitation. These groups comprise more than 20 percent of
the total membership of the denomination,

Desoite the heavy responsibilities carried by Mr. Wilson
down through the years, he and Mrs. Wilson have never lost
interest in old Fox Creek. Both are regular attendants at
our annual Fox Creek reunions and have done much to inspire
interest in these happy affairs. Mr, Wilson served as Pres-
ident of the Association for three consecutive years, 1942.
1943, 1944.

Rittenhouse, Dec. 28, 1896, Sterling North Dakota. She
was b. Aug. 11, 1875 near Charlottsville, Va., died
April 21, 1954, Taunton, Mass. He was reared in the United
Presbyterian Church but his pastorates were mostly Cong-
regational. He had a rather vatied career, after graduating
from Monmouth College in 1882, A.B. and A.M. degrees, he
and all of his family moved to Sterling, North Dakota and
for some time, at least, he ran a newspaper in in Bismarck
with Col. W. P. Moffat (brother of Hughe Moffat of Monmouth-
Daily Review). Eight or ten years later he went to Calif.,
San Jose and thereabouts, where his father, mother and
sisters had gone and eventually became a teacher of bus-
iness subjects at the College of the Pacific, San Jose,
and later at Tarkio College, Tarkio, Mo. (1905-10). For
about three years he was connected with the Bobbs-Merrill
Co., Indianapolis, and then moved to New Haven, Conn.,
where he taught in a business college and also worked with
a firm of accoxintants. However, he had always felt he
should have been a minister and in 1916-17-18 he studied
at Yale University Theological School and was ordained
while I was an undergraduate and he was approaching 60 years.
After he got me through college he took the pastorate of
the Presbyterian Church in Hanover, Indiana, 1921. From
there he went to United Church, Congregational, in Beacon
Falls, Conn., about 1923-7, thence to a Congregational
Church in Mount Dora, Florida, for perhaps a year when he
returned to Connecticut and was pastor of the Congregational
Church at Burlington Center for over 13 years, retiring in
the spring of 1943. (Above data written by his son, David.)

The unfinished letter below was supposed to have been

Jamison Boyd, of Winterset, Iowa, the great granddaughter of
Matthew Findley.

Henderson County, 111., May the 19th, 1842

Dear Friends

Availing myself of the leisure of a wet day I sit
down to write you a few lines informing you of our welfare and
also of some of the news and gossip of our country. We are all
enjoying good health at present for which blessing we hope we
are all thankful to a merciful Providence and we fondly hope
that these few lines may find you and all the friends enjoying
the same blessing. "John Quincy has been suffering for nearly
a year with a White Swelling in his ancle but his health is
otherwise good. The Doctor thinks that all the unsoimd bone
has been removed and that it will soon heal up.

Our country has been tolerably healthy this spring
although there has been a few severe cases of sickness in our
neighborhood and one death. One of our neighbors went down
the River to New Orleans last fall on a trading expedition and
was away all winter he caught the Disentary before he returned
and came home sick he used severe astringent medicines which
threw him into a fever of which he never recovered. We have
had a very early soring the earliest I ever Knew Vegitation was
as forward on the first of Aoril as it often is on the first of
May the prairies were as green as a wheat- field and the forest
almost black with leaves on the first of April. We had a very
soft and mild winter very little snow and scarcely any cold
weather at all our worst storm was in Nov.

The wheat crops looks very well in our neighbor-
hood but I have been told that it is not so good in some other
places. We have near forty acres in wheat which is very for-
ward for this season of the year and admonishes us to prepare
for an early harvest, we have been done planting for some time
our com is up and struggling for life with the prairie ground
squirrels and crows. We have court in Oquawka next week and
perhaps it would do any of you good to step in and see the way
business is done here. It is the most primitive court in our
circuit and would form a drab comparison with some of your city
courts and court-houses. Our court last season was held in a
carpenters work shop this term it is to be held in a warehouse
but we have a splendid courthouse being erected this summer
perhaos you are not aware that we divided our covinty last season
we had formerly belonged to Warren County and we helped them
to build a courthouse which cost 10000 Dollars now that we are
struck off in our- selves we have to raise another which will
cost nerhans an equal amount.

The times have been dull here for a good while but
now there is no times at all the word is do as you can. Those
who have had plenty of wheat to sell this winter have done
pretty well while those farmers who have been engaged in the
pork line are complete used up. Some of the farmers went down

91

the River last fall with their oork -- they Renerally saved
themselvea but lost their Dork.

Wheat has been worth 62^ cents Pork last fall was
worth from one to two dollars ner hundred Bacon this soring
is worth 1^ cents oer Dound. They have been trying; to nut
down our Bank this winter and they have in oart succeeded.
Illinois State Bank naoer is onlv worth 75 cents on the dollar.
This is a hard go on the farmers many of them sold their wheat
althrouph the winter for State B-^nk naner and consequently
suffer a loss of 25 ner cent but this is common now-a-davs
and Cantain Tyler seems determined to continue the same state
of things. Caotain Tyler is in bad renute among the oeonle
here thev kick him about like old shoes and talk of not elect-
ing him any more but sending him back to Virginia to raise
Tobacco. I think he is best at that. It is bet^ining to be
hinted strongly among the old Ladies at their wool pickings
that Henry Clay is to be the next President and you know what
the Women takes into their heads is oretty ant to be done.
Well let it be so Women sometimes get worse notions in their
heads than that. But I wont say a word about it for we live
in the successor state and everybody knows there is more fools
here than wise people and besides we exoect to have this state
sold at Constable sale long before the election. We dont owe
only about seventeen millions of dollars and you know that is
a small circumstance only about 200 dollars to each voter or
30 dollars to each inhabitant in the State.

Mr. Van Buren the little Magician is on a tour
through the west this soring he was at the Hermitage oaying
a visit to the old Roman the last account, he is expected to
pay Mr. Benton a visit at St. Louis and perhaps he may come
up the River this far. I should like to get a oeep at him
very much, but then I would not know him except by his ears,
and then there is so many people here with long ears that it
would be pretty hard to tell. But I must stop or perhaps you
will think I am quite too saucy.

On the back of the above letter is written the following
memorandum some five years later.

Register of Fruit Trees planted 23rd April 47.

Commencing at the South West corner and always counting
from the South -- First Row two Early Reds, three Codlins and
one Golden Russet -- Second Row two Blush June, two Spizen-
burgh Pippins and two Bell Flowers. Third Row two Maidens

Welcome Address by Elder W. A. Findley, given at the
Semi-Cent<2nnial Meeting, South Henderson, U. P. Church,
Sat. July 4, 1885. Ref: "Story of South Henderson"

Kind Friends:

We are glad that so many of you have seen fit to honor
us with your presence today; glad that so goodly a number of
our friends and neighbors have come to help us commemorate
the anniversary of the day of our organization; and we are
especially glad to see the faces of so many of old friends,
who have met with us, and with whom we have spent so many
pleasant hours in day that are past. We extend to you our
kindest wishes and cordial greeting. And we hope you may
each one find something in our meeting today that may be in-
teresting to you and prove a blessing to us.

As we attempt to notice some of the events and circum-
stances that have brought us together, so many thoughts crowd
upon us that we scarcely know where to begin. Fifty summers
and winters have succeeded each other and gone to an endless
eternity, since the Banner of the Cross was first raised in
this then new country. A few of our fathers had explored
this region of country, and, seeing the broad and level pr-
airies with their rich and fertile soil, concluded to make
this land their future home. The face of our country at that
time presented a beautiful appearance, much more so than at
the present. There were no hedges, or shade trees, or or-
chards to obstruct the view as at the present. The wide pra-
iries, reaching in many places beyond the scan of vision, had
the appearance of a vast and beautiful meadow covered with a
luxuriant crop of grass interspersed with wild flowers of al-
most every hue. The wild and uncivilized Indian, the prowling
wolf and timid deer were the almost only occupants of the land ,
and roamed over the prairies unmolested. Our fathers, with
heroic courage and self denial, conceived the idea of convert-
ing these prairies into fruitful fields and pleasant homes;
but the difficulties they had to encounter, the hardships and
privations they had to endure, are known only to those who
have themselves settled in a new country. They can be better
imagined than described by us. Although there was no chopping
or grubbing, or clearing off of timber to do, as in some other
new countries, still the task, the labor of making farms and
homes out of these prairies, was arduous, requiring much self-
denial, patience and perseverance. The prairies were hard to'
break up; the fathers had no lumber, but had to split slabs
or boards, as best they could, for constructing houses of shelter;
and oftep, very often, they had to pound the com into meal
with which to make their bread.

But these difficulties, serious as they sometimes were,
requiring heroic courage to overcome, were not their only, or
even their hardest trials. They had hours of solitude; their
Sabbath-days were silent and lonely; they were deprived of the
soul satisfying ordinances of divine grace. As the pious Jew
in captivity hung his harp on the willows, turned his face to-
ward Jerusalem and wept, so they sometimes turned their faces

93

backward toward the land of Beulah, and Longed and yearned

for the consolations of the Gosnel and the communion of saints.

It was on the 4th day of July, 1835, the day we celebrate,
that a few of them associated themselves together and organized
the society which, by the blessing of God, still continues to
exist, and continues to worship in this house. To perpetuate
the memory of that day, to mark what God has done for us as a
congregation, to strengthen our hands and encourage our hearts,
we assembled here today. We hope the time may be so spent,
that, when we separate and go to our homes, although some of
them are far distant, we may each one be enabled to say that
it was good for us to be here.

Of that band of devoted Christian patriots who organized
our Church, we believe there are five or six still living;
but none of them reside among us now. They are scattered over
five or six different states of the West. We rejoice to see
the faces of three of them, who have come long Journeys to
meet with us today. God grant that we may meet them each one
on the celestial shore. Your humble servant was not one who
helped to organize; but he came and settled among them in the
autumn of the same year, three or four months after the organ-
ization.

To our venerable friend, Father Blaikie, who assisted in
our organization, and who has come so far to be with us today,
we say: We are glad to see you and make your acquaintance.
Grateful for what you have done for us in the past, we extend
to you the hand of friendship and love, and hope you will ac-
cept assurances of our kindest wishes for health and happiness.
We bid you a hearty welcome.

To the memory of our departed pastor, Rev. Ross, we drop
a silent tear. We remember his work of faith and labor of
love among us.

To our former pastors. Rev. Dr. McGaw and Rev. Lorimer,
we say: We are glad to see your familiar faces once more. Your
presence recalls many sweet recollections of the past, in the
days when your voices were heard, warming teaching and ex-
horting us, and directing our feet in the path of life. We
extend to you each our kindest wishes, and tender you the free-
dom of our grovinds.

What we have been enabled to accomplish as a congregation,
is not for us to say; but we trust we have not been altogether
idle in the Master's vineyard. Yet, while we have been enabled
to do something towards evangelizing the world abroad, we have
still, by divine grace, kept the coals alive and burning on
the altar at home.

Friends, ladies and gentlemen, one and all, we bid you a
hearty and cordial welcome, and hope you may each one enjoy
the hour.

"In April or May, 1904, the John Findley Henderson family,
especially grandmother and grandfather had all their property
swept away by a flood. It was such a terrifying experience,
I remember it myself.

My grandparents were fortunate to escape with their lives.
They sat in the center of their bed and floated and whirled
around in swirling waters all night. Their youngest son,
Uncle Fred, was with them and saved their lives by pulling them
to the bed. They sat there all night and saw their possess-
ions, family Bible with records, and everything, also the
postoffice which they had in their home float away. The din-
ing table whirled around all night and the lighted lamp for
some reason remained on the table.

All that was saved was something that the water carried
near enough to the bed for Fred to reach to pull on the bed
with them. It was a flash flood caused by a cloudburst to the
north. Three creeks that were usually dry were rushing tor-
rents spreading out to a half a mile in width.

All the family's live stock- cattle, horses and fine mules
were caught and drowned. So all the family except Uncle Guy
moved to a town, Ordway, and started over. Guy stayed on the
ranch and started over again in the cattle business. His bro-
thers and parents all eventually sold him all their land, acres
and acres of that grazing land in Eastern Colorado. "

b. June 19, 1878, Butlerville, Indiana, d. Nov. I5, 1935,
Glendale, Calif. In 1951, Mrs. Malmsbury, with the assistance
of her daughter, was completing a novel concerning the oioneer-
ing of the Hinkley Valley in the Mojave Desert. They came to
Glendale in 1910, but in 1914, she and her husband moved to
Hinkley, Calif., just about ten miles north of Barstow, It was
a "pioneer" move in the strictest sense, because Hinkley at
that time was just a wide-spread handful of tents and small
shacks, with every family finding it necessary to develoD their
own water supplies and build their homes amid sand and sage-
brush that still was the home of wild animals, rattlesnakes
and gila monsters. A basic philosophy is integrated in the
novel, she explained, which can be summed up in the words,
"Where we are living does not matter; it's what we make of what
we have that counts." She is also an author of poetry and re-
ligious works. Ref: Glendale newspaper item, Dec. 1951.

William Edward Hawthorne was bom June 7, 1859, in a log cabin
on the farm in Granville township, which was the pioneer home
of his parents, he was one of the twin sons of William and
Susan Findley Hawthorne. His ancestral lineage for several
generations has been distinctly American and he was of English,
Scotch and Irish descent. After attending the public schools
he pursued a scientific course at Northern Indiana Normal Sch-
ool, now Valparaiso University. In early manhood he engaged
in teaching school. It was at Marengo, Mich., while working
in a grain elevator with his older brother, S. D. that he se-
cured his first position. He returned to Granville in the early
1880s, walking to Florida to teach the school in that village.
Later he went to Vermontville, Mich., where he held his first
princioalship and where his little bride was also an instructor.
He taught his last school in Essexville, Michigan.

Mr. Hawthorne's business life in Granville began in the
fall of 1884 when he took charge of a general store for H. Bat-
man. The following autumn, in connection with G. L. Brando, he
established a hardware and grocery store in the building former-
ly used as the Granville Academy. For fifteen years he was thus
engaged, retiring after his election to the office of superin-
tendent of schools of Putnam County, which office he occuoied
for eight years. In 1901 Mr. Hawthorne organized the Granville
Mercantile Company which he conducted for four years.

In 1903 he established the Granville Echo, which was under
the management of his brother-in-law, B. B. Blosser, until 1905,
when he abondoned the mercantile business to take control of
the newspaper and printing business. In 1933, after having pub-
lished the Putnam Record for Hennepin a short time, the paoers
merged, becoming the Putnam County Record. He served as
secretary of the Granville Lecture Association, an organization
which brought such speakers as William Jennings Bryan and Carrie
Chapman Catt to Granville, adding to the cultural tone of the
village. While never having graduated from any higher institut-
ion of learning, he was always a student, and often claimed the
Bible, Shakespeare and the American classics as his textbooks.

He resigned as Secretary- treasurer of the Granville Cemet-
ery Association after having served for fifty years. He served
as secretary of the Selective Service Board throughout World War
I. He had served in various official church capacities and at
his death was Deacon Emeritus of the First Congregational Church.
In politics he was a fervent Republican, straying only to follow
Theodore Roosevelt into the Progressive Party in 1912, when he
was an assistant sergeant-at-arms at the national convention.
In 1924 he was a Presidential Elector, when Calvin Coolidge was
named President. He was an alternate delegate to the convention
of 1932. In 1913 he was a member of the Anti-Saloon League Com-
mittee of One Thousand which went to Washington in the cause of
national prohibition. In 1907, in cooperation with John Spencer
Burt, editor of the Henry Times, he was author of a history of
Marshall and Putnam counties. At the time of his death all six
children were in the journalistic field. They were Wm. H. editor
and publisher of the Chenoa Clipper-Times and Grid ley Advance;
Orin Lawrence of Springfield, vice- President of the Sangamon Co.
of Taylorville; Helen H. Benson and Marie Hawtnorne, associated
with the Record; Chas. F. , Ottawa, with the Republican- Times;
Edward Everett, with the Record.

W. H. Grurranon, School Director and Prominent
Industrialist, died, 54.

W. H. Grummon 54, of 514 WashlnRton St., member of (^Incy
Board of Education and Ass't Treas. of the Gardner- Denver Co.,
died shortly after 4 o'clock Frldav afternoon in Blessing
Hospital. In fallinji health for some time, he had been ser-
iously ill since October, having been a oatient in Blessing
HosDital since October 30. Prior to that time he had been to
the Mayo Clinic in Rochester for examination. Unable to att-
tend meetings of the board of education for several months,
or to take oart in committee activities, Mr. Grummon' s death
was announced to his colleagues of the board as they sat in
special meetin Friday afternoon, the final action of the board
at the meeting being the oassage of a resolution of svmnathv
and condolence, with the secretary instructed to write to the
widow, Mrs. Eva Conger Grummon.

Mr. Grummon had been with the Gardner- Denver Comoanv for
sixteen years, working to the resnonsible oosition which he
held at the time of his death. Prior to that, however, he had
been well known in Quincy, having served for sometime as sec-
retary of the boys' deoartment of the YMCA nosition, leaving
the YMCA to go with the Gardner-Denver Comoany.

It was as a member of the board of education, during the
last four and one-half years, however, that Mr. Grummon had
come particularly to the public attention in Quincy. He was
elected to the board in Aoril of 1931, he was re-elected in
1934, and at the time of his death had a year and one-half to
serve of his oresent term which would exoire in April in 1932.
Mr. Grummon was one of the first members of the board of ed-
ucation elected in what amounted to a transition of the board,
which has resulted in recent years in virtually an entire
change in board oersonnel.

As a member of the board of education, Mr. Grummon took
a most active interest in school affairs. He had served on
various board committees, being at the time of his death, chair-
man of the important education committee. Mr. Grummon was
outspoken in meetings and orogressive in his views.

The son of the late Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Grummon, Wm. H.
Grummon was born in Clayton on Oct. 25, 18S1, came to Quincv
as a young man, living with his narents, until his marriage
to the former Miss Eva Conger of Quincy who survives him.
One brother, Rev. Ray Grummon, pastor of the First Methodist
Church of Decatur, also survives him and two children, Mildred,
at home and Helen, who is a junior in the C^uincy Senior High
School. Mr. Grummon was a member of the Vermont St. Methodist
Church.

From Anril 14, 1933 issue of Staten Island Advance:

A 79 year old grandmother, who 70 years ago moved with her
father from Illinois to Kansas in a covered wagon, came to
Staten Island yesterday to visit her son by airolane. The
visitor, Mrs. Jane Moore, of Chautauqua, Kansas, hooped aboard
a TWA airliner yesterday morning at Wichita, Kansas, in her
first exoerience at flying. Was she frightened? "No'' she told
her son, Bruce Moore, of 141 St. Mark's Place, St. George, "it
was the most heavenly trin I ever had". Mrs. Moore was last
in the East ten years ago. That time she came by train. She
lived a while in Los Anaeles, where her son was bom, so she
has covered much of the country by rail.

Born in Keithsburg, 111., I-lrs. Moore was taken west to
Kansas Shortly after the Civil War when the government gave
away homesteads to encourage settling. Her father settled in
Chautauqua. Two younger brothers and a younger sister make
their home there with Mrs. Moore.

The elderly v;oman is here with her son and daughter-in-
law for an indefinite stay. She was greeted last night, also
by her two granddaughters. Miss Barbara Moore and Mrs. Jane
Schnackenburg of 26 Florence St., Great Kills, and her
granddaughter's husband, Fred Schnackenburg.

From Merced, Calif, newspaper, during World War II.

Merced Marine Gives Blood to Wounded Buddy on Battle Line.
(The following story was written by Sgt. Benjamin Goldbert
of Dorchester, Mass, a Marine Corps Combat Correspondent.)

"Capt.Glouchester, New Britain- Delayed. A short distance
behind the front lines. Marine Private First Class Carl W.
Sawyer, 19 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter R. Sawyer of
Route 2, Merced, Calif., gave a blood transfusion to save the
life of a sergeant in his combat engineer outfit, then re-
turned to the front lines,

"The three bullets that just skimmed over my head hit
the sergeant, who was 20 yards behind me," he said. "I didn't
know it at the time.

"Next day, the word was passed that the sergeant was in
a tough shape. They'd given him blood plasma, but he had a
rare type of blood and a transfusion might do the trick.

"I have that type of blood, so I went back and the doc-
tors took some from me. I returned to the lines. I felt all
right.

"When we dropped back a couple of days later, I found
out that the sergeant had been unconscious for 36 hours, but
came out of it and they figured he'd be all right after a
time. "

The Marine is a flame-thrower and worked with the infant-
ry in clearing Jap pillboxes. He attended Merced High School
and worked as a sign painter before he enlisted a year ago.

The Kan.sas Flndley FarnlLv.

John Pierce FindLey and faiiilv travelled from Kelchsburg,
(New Boston) Illinois, in IR70, by covered waeon and without
firearms, with a family by the name of Scott, to Chetooa, Kan-
sas, where he left the famllv for the winter and went on west
and homesteaded a olace near what is now Chautauqua, Kansas,
and brought his family to it Varch 4, 1R71. His son, Bruce,
and daughter, Maggie Parker, still lived on the nlace when it
was sold in the Snrin'^ of 1Q47. He never owned a fiream in
his life and did not believe they were needed. He carried the
Bible and several song books on the trio west. He cut logs
for the homestead home from land where the town of Chautauqua
now stands, the logs are still in the walls of nart of the nre-
sent home. There was no timber on his nlace, onlv nrairie
grass, when he settled on it, and the familv has watched the
timber grow and now much of it is in timber, black jack oaks.
He was a lover of orchards and during his life on the olace,
planted three different orchards besides a bi^ vineyard, the
first orchard was all aoole trees.

The Findley home was alwavs onen to friends and neiehbors
and a olace of entertainment for church delegates, oreachers
and their families and church gatherings. It was a house of
hosoitality for young folks on Sundavs and all the descendants
loved to go to Grandoa and crandma Findlev's home.

Grandma Findley got her first sewing machine at a cost
of $45,00 at Sedan, Kansas. She had made all her family's
clothes by hand uo until that time. Her family consisted of
herself, Grandoa, and seven children. She dyed and soun all
her yarn but hired a neighbor woman to weave the cloth. She
also knitted all the stockings and mittens for her family.
She did her sewing and knitting by candle light, making the
candles herself until Grandna bought a lamo in Keithsburg.
They saw the first Indians in Chetooa, Kansas, in 1870.

From the History of the State of Kansas, by A. T. Andreas,

Chicago, 1883, nage 1220.

J. P. Findley, farmer, P. 0. Chautauqua Sorings, was born in
Muskingum Co., Ohio, in 1832, and was raised and lived there
until 1855, Thence moved to Mercer County, Illinois, and re-
mained there until 1870, when he emigrated to Kansas, locating
in Howard County and took a claim before the land was surveyed.
The nearest ooint on a railroad was about 80 miles, and for a
time he had to go that distance for suoolies and there were but
very few settlers. His claim is on Sec. 10, Two. 35, Range 11.
He has 200 acres, watered bv 2 fine sorings, which furnish
Dlenty of water; has 120 acres of timber and 50 acres under
cultivation, 90 acres fenced, 4 acres of orchard, in full con-
dition and with a full variety. The olace is well stocked with
40 head of cattle, a number of horses and other stock. Mr.
Findley has been very successful, and has a choice olace now,
3/4 mile from Chautauqua Sorings. He married in 1856 at Vao-
ello, Iowa, to Miss Sarah Willson. They have seven children:
Annie May, Lillie J., Maggie W. , Amelia, Bruce, Roy and Ed.
He is a member of the United Brethren Church.

From The Weekly Times Star and The Sedan Lance, Sedan, Kans.,

Thurs. Nov. 4, 1909.

John Pierce Findley was born in New Concord, Muskingum Co.,
Ohio, Mar. 17, 1832, and died at his home near Chautauqua, Kans.,
Oct, 26, 1909, age 77 vrs. 7 mo. and 9 days.

On the 26th of June, 1856, he was married to Miss Sarah
Willson who has shared with him the joys and responsibilities
of life for more than 53 years, and who survives to mourn the
loss of a kind, affectionate and devoted husband. The deceased
was an old settler in this part of Kansas. He has resided upon
the farm which was his home since Mar. 4, 1871. He lived a
long and useful life and was held in the highest esteem by all
who knew him. He was a good citizen, a good neighbor, and a
faithful friend and above all a Christian gentleman. About
thirty- four years ago he united with the United Brethren Church
and remained a faithful and active member until the Master call-
ed him from labor to reward. He was regarded as the father of
the United Brethren Church at Chautauqua and perhaps next to
his own family the church will miss him most but he will be
missed greatly by everyone in this community. Father Findley
was a quiet reserved man but a man of strong conviction? and
sufficient courage to stand for his convictions. You always
knew where to find him and upon questions pertaining to moral-
ity, religion and social good you always found him upon the
right side doing all he could for the right.

His funeral was conducted from the United Brethren Church
at Chautauqua, Oct. 28th at 2 o'clock by the writer and his
remains were tenderly laid to rest upon the farm where he had
lived for more than thirty- eight years, A very large concourse
of sorrowing friends were in attendance at the funeral and with
sad hearts following the casket to its final resting place.
Besides Mother Findley and the seven children of whom mention
has already been made, he left seventeen grandchildren and five
great grandchildren to mourn the death of a tender-hearted,
sweet spirited Godly man who was a father to all in the
community.

John ?. Donelson, who soent his bovhood In Sedan in back
into the service of his countrv after a resnlte in an outstand-
inz naval career. He will be reme^iberefi here as the grandson
of the late Col. Samuel M. Donelson, with whom he lived in
Sedan, and the prandson of J. P. '•"Indlev of Chautauqua.

ThouRh the famllv home was near Elzln, John was born "down
the creek a-wavs" in the Osaee Indian Territory. Thus when he
erew un and attended the U. S. Naval Academy at Annanolls, he
had the distinction of belne; the first native-born Oklahoman
to attend that Institution and graduated In 1910.

Uoon eraduatlon from the acac^.e^v^ Donelson went at once
to sea, snendlne three years on the battleshlo Vlrp.inla. Then
he was transferred to the Asiatic Squadron for three years from
which he covered the Phlllnolnes, Jaoan, the China coast and
cruised a thousand miles uo the Yanp-t7.e River. John F. Jonel-
son is a llvine: examnle of a vounp man who joined the navy and
saw the world. ;)urlnR the 'Vorld Var, he served ^s a Runnerv
officer on the armored crvilser South Dakota, and after then
was he elected another cruise In the Orient, rather than be on
shore duty. He encaped In continuous sea service until Jec.
1936, when he was retired because of ohvslcal disability.

His retirement, however, was brief. With the country acain
at war, >'r. Donelson has returned to service. '-/hile he no long-
er mans the puns on a rolllnp shin, he has a nlace just as vital
to America, servinp as Caotaln In charpe of the Naval Reserve
tralnlnp at Norman, Oklahoma. Early day residents of this
county who remembar Col. Samuel M. Donelson will not wonder at
the unusual career of his prandson. The Colonel himself was a
flphtlne man. A southerner, as his title Imnlles, he broupht
his famllv from Texas to the Indian Territory where they lived
only a short time before the government moved out the white
settlers to make wav for the Indians.

On July 4, 1S70, he made a soeech to a crowd of early set-
tlers on the first Indenendence Day celebration ever held in
what is now the State of Oklahoma. Old timers say of this
occasion, "Old Glory was flunp to the breeze and the American
eaple screamed as never before".

The families who made un the little settlement In the
territory loved their homes, the more so from havinp obtained
them through hardship and difficulties, and the threat of evic-
tion in order to turn these loved olacos over to the Indians,
roused rebellion among them. Seventy-one years aeo on just
such a May day as this, one of the last skirmishes with the
Indians took olace in the territory south of Elgin. Charact-
eristically enough, Col. Donelson was there, one of about a
dozen men who encountered nearly a hundred angered Indians.
In the fray, Joseoh Selter a white settler, was shot from his
horse and lay in the dust begging for water. Tho his comrades
ventured forth with a hatful of water from Turkey Creek,
Joseph Selter died where he had fallen.

After leaving the territory, the Donelson family estab-
lished their home in Chautauqua County and remained here until
their children were grown. After a long life of courageous
adventure, the Colonel died at his home In east Sedan with
his grandson at his side.

From the Sedan, Kansas, Newsoaoer, Fall of 1941.

From The Oklahoma Daily, Norman, Ok la,
July 6, 1944, University of Oklahoma
publication.

Though no huge bedecked birthday cake stood on his desk
Wednesday, Capt, J. F. Donelson, commanding officer of the
V-12 unit, as probably the oldest naval officer both as to
age and service limit now on duty in the state, marked his
39th service birthday.

Now on his 40th year of navy record, he can easily cite hap-
penings of his last day of "personal freedom" July 4, 1905,
the day before he reported for navy duty- which he spent sail-
boating on Chesapeake Bay with "fair damsels" of the day.

Bom on the Osage Indian Reservation, Captain Donelson is
listed as the first native Oklahoman ever to attend the naval
academy at Annapolis. He was graduated from the school and
assigned to active duty in 1910, Now, a veteran of naval sea
action, the Captain jokingly tells men under his command that
"the first 30 years are the hardest. After you once make it
over the humps found in these years, you'll find navy life
sailing," he points out.

Appointed to the academy by Bird S. McGuire, delegate to Con-
gress, Capt, Donelson was active in the sports program there
and set a running broad jump academy record of 22 feet, 7^
inches which stood for 13 years.

Before he was retired because of a physical disability which
incapacitated him from sea duty in December, 1936, he had spent
several years in the Asiatic sector which included the Phili-
ppines, Japan and China; seen action in World War I, and been
on a three year rour of duty for the navy department. At the
time of his retirement he was executive officer of the navy
cruiser Chicago.

In 1940 he was recalled to active duty and assigned to the 11th
naval district headquarters at San Diego where he was stationed
until he was transferred here in February, 1942, as commandant
of the NROTC. On July 1, 1943, when the V-12 program became
effective. Captain Donelson was named commanding officer.

While on active sea duty, Captain Donelson also served on the
folowing ships: Virginia, Galveston, Helena, Saratoga, Con-
necticut, South Dakota, Alabama, Idaho and Dickerson.

JAMES F1NDLEY(IR06.1SRR)

James Findlev, son of David and Jane (Mitchell) ''Indley
was born Seot. 13, 1S06 In Elizabeth townshlo, Alle^henv Co. |
Pa., and died In Monmouth, Illinois, S*»nt. I, IHSS. In the**
year of his birth his father and family removed to Muskingum
County, Ohio, and his earlv life was snent on a farm near New
Concord and In New Concord.

In 1829, he married Eliza Sneer, a daughter of Judge
Stuart Sneer and his wife, Jane Scott, of fJuernsey Co., Ohio.
Eliza Jane Soeer belonged to an old colonial family and was
a descendant of Colonel Abraham Scott and of Caotaln Moses
McClean, both of whom served In the Revolution. She died In
Monmouth, III., In IS76.

At New Concord, James Flndlev was a considerable orooerty
owner for those times; he was the owner of a farm, a grist mill
and the village tavern. He was an elder In the church and a
trustee of Muskingum College, which he with others, was Ins-
trumental in founding. His farm seems to have been a station
on the "underground Rallwav", for he concealed runaway slaves
and aided them in their escane to Canada. In 1835, In comnany
with his brother, Matthew, he made a journey on horseback to
the Illinois country, going as far west as Henderson County on
the Mississiool River, but it was not until twenty years later
that he sold his orooerty at New Concord and removed to Mon-
mouth, Warren County, Illinois, where he engaged in milling
and other ooerations.

Owing to the general financial conditions followlne the
war, he was unfortunate in his business and lost most of his
orooerty. Refusing to eo into bankruntcy, he assumed the debts
of the firm of which he was a member. Out of the wreck of his
estate he had left only his home In Monmouth and some twenty
acres of land near the citv limits. Havlne eood health and
abundant energy he went to work on this olece of land and made
it into a profitable fruit farm.

It was not long before his berries and his graoes were
the best in the neighborhood; they were the first In the market
and brought the highest orices. He labored on here until he
had oaid the last of his debts and saved for himself a com-
fortable home In Monmouth, where with his widowed daughter, he
soent his last days, conscience clear and with an income suff-
icient to secure for himself the rest and independence to which
he was entitled in his old aee.

For his genuine manliness, James Findlev was held In high
esteem in the community, both at New Concord and Monmouth. At
Monmouth, he was an elder in the Second United Presbyterian
Church from the time of its organization until his death. He
was a constant reader of good books and Periodicals, wrote
occasionally to the oaners on agricultural and political sub-
jects and was interested in all public questions. H^ was thor-
oughly conscientious and generous bevond his means. In con-
versation, he was serious, sometimes humorous and always In-
teresting. He was not easily depressed bv misfortune; consid-
ering the load he was carrying, his disposition was cheerful.
Seated in a light wagon behind his old white horse, one of a
team of fine carriage horses which he drove in his more pros-
perous days, he would go singing to his work like a bov with-
out a care In the world.

channel through the St. Louis chain of rocks by machinery of
his own design and construction and by day labor, personally
supervised by him. It is interesting to note that a previous
attemot had been made to excavate the channel through this
particular chain of rocks by the U. S. Gov't earlier in the
century, but submarine blasting carried on at that time was
unsuccessful. He also removed the foundation of the original
Rock Island bridge, the first bridge constructed across the
Mississippi River.

In 1879, he was apnointed Chief Engineer of the Peoria &
Farmington Railway, of which he had charge of location, const-
ruction and ooeration from Peoria to Keithsburg. Later this
road was consolidated with the Iowa Central, and Mr. Wallace
had charge as Master of Trains. At the same time he was eng-
ineer in charge of construction and improvements on this line,
one interesting piece of work being the construction of a tra-
nsfer over the Mississippi River at Keithsburg.

During the fall and winter of 1866, he was Ass't Engineer
of surveys and other work on the Union Pacific Railroad in the
Rocy Mountains. He was construction engineer of the Sibley
bridge across the Missouri River, and a bridge across the Miss-
issippi River near Fort Madison.

Subsequently he was connected with E. L. Corthell in gen-
eral engineering work, with headquarters at Chicago, his prin-
cipal work at that time being the construction of the joint en-
trance of the Santa Fe and Illinois Central into Chicago from
the West, together with improvements of the Chicago & Alton
terminal entrance. Mr. Wallace also made examinations and
Plans of various railroad projects and reported on plans and
estimates for a bridge at New Orleans over the Mississippi
River. Before this work was completed, Chicago was giving
thought to the World's Fair. The Illinois Central had a ser-
ious problem in how to handle the traffic that would result
from the Fair, and Mr. Wallace's suggestion to the management
of the Illinois Central resulted in his being retained by that
railroad as Chief Engineer to plan and put into execution the
suburban service which so successfully handled the World's Fair
crowds ever since been an important factor of transportation in
Chicago. The elevation of tracks in the City of Chicago and
the Lake Front improvement were not only under Mr. Wallace's
general supervision, but he also assisted in the negotiations
with the City which made this work possible. He also const-
ructed extensive terminals in the City of New Orleans, planned
and constructed the Stuyvesant Docks at New Orleans and exten-
sive terminals at Harahan Yards, near New Orleans; also the
improvement of terminals at East St. Louis, Louisville and
Memohis.

In the fall of 1897, Mr. Wallace resigned as Chief Engineer

271

of the Ill-Cent. Railroad to accent th*> -Position of the Vlce-
Pres. and Gen. Msr. of the I'athlson AT'-all Vorks, of Saltvlllo
Va., and while in that caoacitv was =>ros. of a orooospd rail- '
road known as the SaltviLle and Virfinla •'ailroad.

He returned to the Ill-Cent. Railroad, Jan. I, 1SQ'\ na
Ass't Second Vice-President, with general suoervlsion over th»»
eneineerint^ den't and of natters connected vit^ the ooeration
of the system. DurinR this tirre he had oersonal charge of the
construction of the Fort Dodtre -"-x CNaha '.ailropd, fZ -niles in
lenp.th, which pave the Ill-Cent, an entr-irce into . -naha .••nd
Council Bluffs. Sent. 1902, he was amointed Generp.l r'anager
of the Illinois Central R-ilroad.

In 1904, he left the service of t'^^ Ill-Cent, to \ t^co-rt^
the first Chief Engineer of the Panama Cannl. > found tr^ere
an obsolete, inadequate nlant which had to be scraooed and the
work started anev; fron the vnrv teriminr, r> returned from
the Isthmus in 190*^, an after ?. short oeriod of rest was re-
tained by the Chicaeo .Si \'orth\.'estem and conceived and dost-ned
the new oasseneer terminals for that railwav in Chicar-o. Short-
ly thereafter he went to ..'ew York to become chairman and l;>ter
President of '.'estinphouse, Church, l^err i Co., one of the lar- e
eneineerinp organizations in the ccuntrv. --or over ten vears
he directed the /activities of that comoanv. :-:is residence in
New York broueht him in direct contact with the threat financial
problems of the country, and his counsel wa 5? frenuentlv soueht
on many matters outside the realm of ene ineerins. for the last
five years, '-'r. 'Wallace has been a member of the Committee on
Harbors and Shiminp of the Chamber of Commerce, St. of N'. Y.

During the late war, ^■T'l I, he served as a member of the
Transoortation Committee of the "'ational -Petroleum Advisory
Board. In 1913, he was retained bv the Citv of Chicago in an
advisory caoacitv in connection with the west side I'nion Station.
The work done in this connection laid the foundation for the
establishment in 1914 of the Chicago Rv. Terminal Commission,
with Mr. Wallace as Chairman. During this time, in addition
to working out the Union Station ordinance, he was sucressful
in bringinc to a final conclusion, throuP'h his "reat abilitv
to harmonize conflicting hum.an interests, the 1 1 1- Cent. Lake
Front ordinance, after thirtv vears of discussion of this oro-
blem of Chicar'o.

At the time of his death, '-;r. \allnce was in Vashlneton
attending hearinss of the Senate Comm.ittee on Interstate Com-
merce in connection with the ."^oard of Economics and engineer-
ing recently formed by the [N'ational Association of railroad
security holders.

Witness his advice to the l9lf eraduatinr class of
Konmouth College: "::y first advice to you would be to cultivate
friends. Begin with vour oi-m family circle and let your friend-
shios extend to include your neighbor, vour citv, vour state,
your country - and finallv broaden it out to include and em-
brace humanity. Other thin'^s beine equal, the measure of vour
success will deoend uoon vour f riendshios . " And surelv as he
lived the above, he lived also this advice: "Cultivate a will-
ingness to serve others, regardless of time, olace of circum-
stances, not measuring vour services oound for oounri , as for
comnensation, but let the measure of what vou eive be over-
flowing. "

TVHO'S '-r-TO IN SOUTH DAKOTA, 3y 0. V. Coursey,

Oct. 11, 1924.

Rev. Dr. Williarr. Wallace (1356-1940)

About two years ago when the enemies of the old- line
orthodox faith began ass^xilinf? the virgin birth of Christ
and other ooints of controversy in the Bible, one bis out-
standing oreacher began going ut) and down this youne state
of ours oouring forth torrents of eloquence, advisin.^ all who
heard him to remain steadfast in their faith - the faith of
their fathers - and to cling to the basic tenets of religion,
the virgin birth, the insoiration of the scrioture, the re-
surrection, the ascension. His name is Dr. William Wallace,
and he hails from Sioux Falls. He is a nowerful oreacher,
one who has thought his faith clear through, one who has
oreachr^dit and lived it for so many years that it has become
a vital Dart of his very being.

Dr. Wallace came from a nrominent American family. His
father was the first president of Monmouth ColleEe at Monmouth,
Illinois, a Presbyterian institution. He held this nosition
for 21 consecutive years. During this tim.e he was twice el-
ected president of the National Education Association, one of
the highest honors that can come to a school man. He was also
president of the Pan- Presbyterian Convocation which convened
in Philadelohia.

William was born in the same house in V7hich his mother
was born in New Concord, Ohio. He was only six weeks of aze
when the family moved to Monmouth, Illinois. Here the bov
finished the school work of the grades and then entered Mon-
mouth College, graduating with the Class of 1378. Tx-^o years
later he took his Master's deeree at Monmouth and in 1912 the
same institution conferred uoon him his D. D. After graduat-
ion, he first became a teacher and was elected nrincioal of
the Academy at Savannah, Ohio. Later he served for several
years as president of Norfolk College at Norfolk, Virsinia.

However, the call of the ministry was ever uoon him; and
so, in the later eighties, he gave un teaching and took uo
preaching. He never regretted the Cihange and to him the min-
istry is the outstanding, all absorbing profession of pro-
fessions. He has succeeded well at it, too, succeeded because
he loved his work, because he fitted into it; he's no sauare
pee in a round hole, he is four-square man in a four- square
job, and he fills it to overflowing.

During his long successful experience he held pulpits at
Metz, Lisbon, Bellaire, Ohio; Calumet, Michi ;an; Cambridge,
Illinois; Hawarden, Iowa; Creston, Ohio; Sioux Citv, Iowa, and
Parker, South Dakota. 7or the past eleven years he has been
superintendent of Presbyterian >!issions in the southern half
of South Dakota, serving 26 churches. During this time, there
has been organized in his district 1^ new churches; there have
been built 13 new church buildings ranging in value from S3000.
to $25,000, and nine new manses in which to house the preachers
and their families. He is raoirilv helping to bring the South
Dakota Presbyterian churches to a self- supporting basis.

Autobiography of David Findley Bonner, AM, DD.
I was born in Greenfield, Highland County, Ohio, April 2, 1842.
We attended the Associated Presbyterian Church, Father's
younger brother, John, was pastor at the time. It was a
country church and has long since been disbanded. While there
my mother died.

In early 1851 we moved to New Concord, Ohio. It was my
mother's early home; Muskingum College being located there, it
would give an opportunity for the education of the children.
My half-sister, Mary Findley Lorimer, acted as mother to us
young children, and we almost worshipped her.

I graduated from Muskingum College in 1860. I had a desire
to go south and teach, but it was too late. Passions were too
high. I taught near home for the next two years, and
attended the theological seminary in Xenia, Ohio; the next two
years at the seminary in Allegheny, Pa. I was licensed in
April, 1864. I preached during the summer in the Presbytery
in Iowa and preached for four months. I returned home and in
April, 1865, I married Mary Smith and we went back to Knox-
ville, Iowa, where I had been called as pastor. In 1970,
I returned east and settled in Caledonia, N. Y. afterwards
serving churches in Goodwill, Florida, and Endicott, all in
New York State. (This was received from Mrs. W. H. Herron. )
