Memorial Day is a day set aside to honor our war dead.</h3>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">My 3<span style="text-align: center;">great-grand uncle Wilson L Starkey paid that ultimate price. </span><span style="text-align: center;">He died during the Civil War.</span><span style="text-align: center;"> </span></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="text-align: center;">Wilson was born in 1835 in Greece, Monroe, New York and his parents were Benjamin Starkey and Mary Ridgway. </span><span style="text-align: center;">He enlisted in the Illinois Infantry Volunteers, Company C, 15th Regiment at its formation on 24 May 1861. After his father's death his mother remarried a Daniel Lewis.</span></span><br />
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">He died aboard the Hospital Ship Red Rover on the Mississippi River on 27 July 1862. Although there is a little confusion as to whether he died the 26 or 27. The official records state the 27th. </span><span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">Exactly how he ended up on the Red Rover is not clear. He had remained with his company until after Shiloh and then was detailed to the Signal Corps and assigned to the gun-boat Bragg. Now whether he remained on the Bragg until he got sick and then was transferred to the Hospital ship is unclear. The records do state that he died upon the Hospital ship Red Rover from Congestive Chills (Malaria) and was buried at Spanish Moss Bend on the Mississippi River. Although, where he is presently buried is not clear. His remains may have been moved to Helena Arkansas, but I have not been able to verify this. After the war many soldiers remains were transferred to cemeteries instead of being left in some field.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">Wilson was married for a short time in late 1859 early 1860. The record states that he and Eleanora R Stone were married but no date or place of marriage is given. The record does state that where ever they were they returned to Eleanora's parents home when she became sick. She died in March 1860. Wilson is listed with Eleanora's family in the 1860 Census in Illinois, but she is not. Her parents state in an affidavit that their daughter Eleanora died without issue and that Wilson never married again before his death in 1862.</span><br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="text-align: center;">**The above information came from a Mother's Pension applied for by Wilson's mother Mary R Lewis. </span></div>

She was two weeks late and it had been 6 weeks since the doctors first thought she would come. Is this baby ever going to come? I wondered. That night after putting the other children down to bed and getting ready for bed, I went to the bathroom and my water broke. Lucky that I did not have a big mess to clean up, but now what. All the various plans we had for what to do with the other children went out the window. There just was not enough time. So my husband took me to the hospital and dropped me off. Thankfully we only lived about 5 minutes from the hospital. Then he took the other 3 children, all sleepy and not knowing what was happening, to a lady from church who lived about 5 minutes past the hospital. He got back.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The lady who watched the other children said the next day the only way I could of had a girl was if she was named Asha Elizabeth, otherwise it was a boy. Well it was Asha and she was a wonderful addition to our family.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">(I would have added a baby picture, but I realized I did not have any already scan and my scanner decided it did not want to work today.) </span>BBurtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15442953154044570700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7222080375384327012.post-65230087598717857092012-09-21T17:00:00.002-05:002012-09-21T17:01:30.666-05:00Lucinda Dunham Minard (Miner) WinchellMy 3great-grandmother's death certificate.

The teacher was doing something at the school but could not be in the classroom. She had planned on the students watching a video. As classes changed from 1st period to 2nd period some male students came in talking about what had just happened in NY. Now High School students when they have subs try and pull the wool over the subs eyes and try to get the sub to change the lesson plans so they can goof off or have a free day. So when these boys came in talking that was what I thought they were trying to do. Shortly after that the teacher came in and confirmed what the boys were saying and turned the TV to the news and I watched the news all day on 9/11 and talked with students about it all day.<br />
<br />
One thing that I thought was amazing was that during the day the projections of how many were dead was 20,000 or more and that when the final death count came out the dead numbered so few compared to the number originally thought. So many people changed their normal routine that day and were thus still alive. My hearts go out to those who lost their lives, but we also remember God was there that day and saved so many more from death.BBurtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15442953154044570700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7222080375384327012.post-63747888176359186422012-08-08T17:16:00.000-05:002012-08-08T17:16:01.450-05:00Wednesday WisdomNot all Birth Certificates are created alike, nor are all delayed certificates clearly marked.<br />
An example is my great grandmother Minnie Estella Miner's delayed birth certificate. Look at the birth date and the date of registration<br />

Although this is a birth certificate, the 1880, 1900, 1910, 1920 and 1930 censuses are closer to the actual birthday of 16 Feb 1872. This birth certificate was registered 67 years after the fact and her eldest daughter is listed as the person signing the certificate. The delayed certificate did not have any documentation with it. I have delayed birth certificates for her children born in North Dakota and all of those have documentation to support the information.</div>

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;"> </span><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">Several
years ago I was at a dinner at my great Aunt Amelia’s house. There were several
cousins from my mother’s generation there and as we talked someone mentioned
that they remember something about two babies born with the same name and that
one died at a young age. The thought was that Grandma Charlotte Boche (my
2-great grandmother and Amelia’s mother) had two boys with the same name.
Something about she had one and he died and then named the second one the same
name, but no one could remember any details.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;"> While I was
looking at a microfilm of Pennsylvania births, I came upon a possible answer to
the question; “Were there really two babies with the same name?” I found that
there were two Joseph Eli’s born in October of 1902. On 2 October 1902,
Charlotte Ducley Boche had a son, who lived to have a family. The second Joseph
Eli was born to my grandmother Orpheline Mary Boche Bionaz, my
great-grandmother and Charlotte’s oldest daughter, who was born 7 October 1902.
This Joseph Eli died at a young age. I still do not know when he died, but I do
know he died before the 1910 Census. He is not listed in the 1910 Census and
the census states that Orpheline was the mother of 3 children, with only 2
still living. A picture taken about 1908 of Orpheline’s children only has
Charlotte and John, the two children listed in the 1910 Census, and no Joseph
Eli in it. Also, John E. Bionaz, Orpheline’s husband, Petition for
Naturalization dated Sep 1908, does not list a child named Eli, it only lists Charlotte
and John as his children. I do not know if these are the two babies with the
same name that was mentioned that day so many years ago, but they could be.<o:p></o:p></span></div>BBurtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15442953154044570700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7222080375384327012.post-46610447994062821912012-07-30T19:19:00.001-05:002012-08-01T15:49:14.514-05:002012 Genealympics<span style="font-size: large;">Randy Seaver over on Genea-Musings<a href="http://www.geneamusings.com/2012/07/saturday-night-genealogy-fun-sngf.html" target="_blank"> http://www.geneamusings.com/2012/07/saturday-night-genealogy-fun-sngf.html</a> has announced the 2012 Genealympics</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The barn is located in Devil's Lake North Dakota. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The barn belonged to the Baker Family.</span></div>

Now when you order BLM (Bureau of Land Management) Records you have a choice: 1) Receive the information in paper form or 2) Receive the information on a CD. The National Archives who has the BLM records charges $40.00 per order no matter how many pages there are in the record. The 2 records I ordered are as follows<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="background-color: white;">Richard Teed Huyck purchasing land in Ohio. His file was for a cash purchase of 80 acres of land and the record only had 4 pages. This is the smallest I have yet to see. It just Lists his intention, his receipt and the front and back of the folder it was in. Not much for $40.00.</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white;">Erland Christofferson, my emergent 2great grandfather, purchasing land in North Dakota. His file was for a Timber Culture for 160 acres. In the file there were pages telling how many acres he plowed, how many acres he planted in trees and what kind of trees. Also it contained information about his citizenship and when he came over. I had always assume (I know never assume anything, but you have to start somewhere) that he came through a US port, but he did not he came through Quebec Canada. I never really worried about his ship passenger record to much since I had enough information to find him and his family in Norway, but now I Know where to look for this elusive record. Quite a bit for $40.00.</span></li>

She was like her older sister, my grandmother, in that she was always kind and supportive in what ever you did. I loved her very much, but it was her time to go. I was told she died the night before the doctors were going to put her on all kinds of life support. In 1978 the doctors still had not embraced the concept of right to die with dignity and they wanted to save her. She and her family knew there was no "saving her" they knew her cancer had progressed to far. She was ready to die, she lived a full life, raised 2 children, watched 3 grandchildren grow and even saw her first great-grandchild be born.

It turns out I will be making several for him in an effort to document his life. He lived in both <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">Burlingham</span> County New Jersey and Philadelphia Pennsylvania (both locations being near each other). He also did a lot of buying and selling land in Philadelphia.
<br />
<br />Objective: Is the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">Delaplain</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ridgway</span> that married Dorothy Reed in 1803, the widower of Hannah <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error">Coulton</span>, who died in 1802 leaving small children. Both of these <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-error">Delapalins</span> were Bricklayers and connected to both Mt Holly, New Jersey and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the early 1800's.
<br />
<br />Research: Locate <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_8" class="blsp-spelling-error">Dilaplain</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_9" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ridgway's</span> will and probate record.
<br />
<br />Know: A <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_10" class="blsp-spelling-error">Dilaplain</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_11" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ridgway</span> is found on the tax rolls of Northampton, Burlington, New Jersey (tax rolls found on Ancestry.com).

<br />
<br /><p>Where to look:</p>
<br /><ol>
<br /><li>New Jersey Wills: Wills, v A-B 1804-1820 <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_26" class="blsp-spelling-error">FHL</span> Film 832912 and Wills, v C-D 1820-1836 <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_27" class="blsp-spelling-error">FHL</span> Film 832920</li>
<br />
<br /><li>New Jersey Probate Records: To use the probate records for Burlington county find the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_28" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">descendant's</span> name in the Estate index. The index gives the volume and page number where that person is found in the Proceedings index. The Proceedings indexes the various probate records for this county, except the "Miscellaneous Records" which have their own index.

<br />
<br /><li>Possibly the Guardian records: His children with Hannah would have been between the ages 18 and 23 in 1820 (with a son about 18). Any children with Dorothy would be younger than 18. Guardianship and administration, v A-B 1804-1864 <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_31" class="blsp-spelling-error">FHL</span> Film 832957 and Guardian accounts, v A-B 1800-1829 <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_32" class="blsp-spelling-error">FHL</span> Film 832963.</li></ol>

<br />This picture was taken about 1934. How I dated it was the little girl in the picture is my mother and she was born 4 Aug 1931 and her sister was born in 1936 and their mother, Elizabeth Hawke Bionaz does not look like she is pregnant.

I do not know who drew it, but it is a lot easier to tell who is who. Especially when the picture is of a large crowd.
