Note #3: ALLEN, Sarah "Sally" Ellen, SEX=F, Born 22 Nov 1832 in County Antrim, Ireland, Died 9 Jul 1916 in Yates City, IL at age 83; OBITUARY FROM GALESBURG REPUBLICAN
REGISTER--JULY 10, 1916: "YATES CITY, Ill., July 10--Mrs. Sarah Sloan, a resident of this vicinity for more than half a century, passed away at the old homestead on Sunday afternoon at about 3:00 o'clock following a lingering illness caused by the infirmities of old age. She broke her hip in a fall about ten years ago and since that time neverregained her full health. She was never seriously ill at any time, however. Her home was known by everyone as a hospitable place and was a favorite gathering spot for young and old alike. At the death of her husband she was left the old farm, comprising of some 800 acres of land which she continued to farm with the assistance of her son James. Her death will be keenly felt by her large host of friends. Sarah Allen was born near Antrim, in County Antrim, Ireland, November 22, 1832. Her parents were both natives of the County Antrim and had lived there during their entire lives. She was a member of a large family of eight children and is the last of the number to pass away. After completing her education in Ireland, she came to this country at the age of 22 years. The day following her arrival in Davenport, Ia., in 1854, she was married to John Sloan, who passed away in April of 1889 and was buried in the cemetery at Yates City. Mr. and Mrs. Sloan were the parents of seven children, three of who passed away in 1879. Mrs. Sloan was a member of the Presbyterian church as was also her husband. Hugh Sloan, a son who resides on a farm near this place is a prominent stock-raiser. At one time he held the office of County supervisor and while in that capacity made a good record for himself. She leaves to mourn her death four children, who are: James, with whom she has made her home; Mrs. Sarah Ware of Douglas, Mrs, Mary Hensley and Hugh of Yates City. The funeral services will be held from the home Tuesday afternoon at 1:00 o'clock. Burial will be in Yates City Cemetery where she will be laid to rest along side her deceased husband."
Note #4: FROM 1912 HISTORY OF KNOX COUNTY ILLINOIS- Pages 818 and 819..johnf
"Mrs. Sarah Sloan owns a fine farm in Salem township, which her son James operates with great efficiency. She was born near Antrim, in County Antrim Ireland, November 22, 1832. Her parents were both natives of County Antrim and lived there during their entire lives. Her father, Hugh Allen, was a very fine musician and was a leader of the church choir for thirty years, also giving instruction in music throughout the county, where he was well known. He was united in marriage to Sarah Caulfield, by whom he had eight children. All grew to maturity, Sarah Ellen, the subject of this review, being now the only member of the family who survives. The others were William, who passed away in Ireland when a young man; Martha, who was married and had six children, the family residing in Ireland; Hugh, who was a soldier in the Civil war and passed away in Douglas, Illinois; John, who met his death while serving in the Irish army; Margaret Ann, who was married and lived in Ireland; Francis, who came to America after the death of his wife and passed away in Chicago, Illinois; and Robert, whose surviving family resides in Kansas. Mr. and Mrs. Allen, who were both members of the Presbyterian church and well known in County Antrim, both died at the age of sixty years, their remains being interred in the churchyard of their native village. After completing her education, Sarah Allen came to America at the age of twenty two-years. On the day following her arrival in Davenport, Iowa, in 1854, she was married to John Sloan, who was born in County Antrim, Ireland, in 1827, and whom she had known in her childhood, having plighted her troth to him before his departure for America, three years and nine months earlier. John Sloan's parents were James and Mary (Beck) Sloan, who lived in County Antrim, Ireland. On coming to this country he engaged in agricultural pursuits and in time acquired eight hundred acres of land which he operated with much success. His death occurred in April, 1889, and he is buried in the cemetery at Yates City. Mr. and Mrs. Sloan were the parents of seven children, three of whom passed away in 1879. Mrs. Sloan is a member of the Presbyterian Church, as was also her late husband. Through enterprise and industry,whose landed holdings amounted to eight hundred acres, was enabled to leave his wife well provided for at his death. She resides on the homestead farm, situated on section 4 of the north side of the east and west road, in Salem township. Her son James lives with her and attends to the cultivation of the land, thus relieving her of the exacting responsibilities which the ownership of a large farm entails. Their home is a hospitable one and is often the scene of merriment when the children and grandchildren assemble at the hearthstone, where they passed their happy childhood days."

Burnside, (Ireland) November 1878
My Dear Son and Daughter,
I received your kind and welcomed letter on the 29th, two days before hallow eve and I never saw a new halloween like it. I did not a much as see an apple. First I must tell you of my own health. It has been very poorly for some time past. I got a cold and my head keeps ringing all the time. I am got quite deaf. I would not hear a word through the house in common discourse. Next I will tell you I was very glad to hear that you were all in such good health and I think as Hugh remarked, I was quite able to say such a fine young gentleman and he might be a son of Queen Victoria. I can see him a little like Robert and the rest of the people here says he favors myself, what I was at one time. I hope he will strive to be a son of his Heavenly Fathers. As for Margaret Ann (Allen Jackson), she is getting a little better but is poorly. Still the rest of the family are all well and William and family is all well. George Mcombe and family is well. Sarah is grown a big girl and very quiet and Agnes is still in Belfast and James is learning to be a Blacksmith with Thomas Atcheson. The rest of your common friends are all well the last account. I heard your Uncle Jack was in his usual health the last word I heard and as for you Uncle James that lived in Scotland, I did not hear any account of him this long time. As for Martha Clarke and her husband, they still live in ?rells. As for Liza Mary Allen and her husband, they still live at Shanes Castle and has 20 pounds a year for keeping the gate. Her husband, William, has
weekly pay for by she has just one son, a fine big broad shouldered fellow, and a nice one just something like your Hugh. I am very sorry that Hugh's picture cannot go in with the rest. It is so large. They are all set in white and the size of every picture cut out and a nice little red border round every one. If we had had Hugh's along with the rest, the frame could have been made larger, but Patrick will put it in a nice frame by itself and I can hang it up beside the rest. Mrs. French and family is well and her little daughter. My clerk? is well. I don
not know what I would do if it was not for her and her mother doing little things for me.

1-18-1880 - Letter to John and Sarah Sloan from Sarah's sister--From Harold and Mary Jean
[Ford] Collection.
16 McCandless St.
Belfast (Ireland)
January 18th, 1880
Dear Brother and Sister,
We received your kind and very welcomed letter on the 7th of this month and were very glad to know that such of your family as have been spared were in good health. We were beginning to think that we were never going to have the pleasure of writing to you any more, but now that you have written, we will be very glad to hear from you regularly, and we will be very punctual in answering, indeed we will be only too happy to have it to do. You wanted to know all about Grandma's death. I had been down at Easter and stayed from Saturday till Tuesday. She was then complaining a little of a pain in her side, but thought she was a great deal better while I stayed with her. Then in the beginning of June she wrote to say that she felt much worse and was not able to dress in the morning without help and asked me to come down a few days. I went down that evening and she was sitting at the fire when I went in, but soon went to bed and was never again able to get up without help. The doctor said there was no particular disease, and that he could not do anything for her, as it was natural weakness and the consequence of her age. About every other day she appeared so much better that I thought she was going to get well again. But she would always change for the worse about 12 o'clock each night and would not speak or ask for anything except when she wanted a drink. When she could speak, she was always wishing that she could see them all, meaning all her friends. When I asked if I would write to you, she said I need not mind until I could send the "big word". I sat with her every night except the first two. She gradually sank and sometimes wandered a little, but was perfectly conscious at the last saying two or three times that she would soon see him now, meaning Father. She had plenty of everything, wine, or anything we thought would tempt her to eat, but she preferred a long drink of buttermilk to anything else. She died peacefully at half past nine o'clock on Thursday morning, the 26th of June, and was buried on Saturday at two o'clock in Father's grave. The Rev. Allison came several times to see her and officiated at the grave. A large number of the respectable farmers of the district showed their respect to her memory by being present at the funeral. William S. Sloan was very kind. He offered to bring me anything I wanted out of Antrim, but, we gave the making of the coffin to James Gibb and he provided all. Margaret and Mrs. Boyd went to Antrim. The latter bought a nice cap, square, and veil, white stockings, and gloves, and six yards of black ribbon, and Margaret bought six yards of calico at three pence per yard, but I told her to keep the calico and dressed her in white linen. We have the family record and will enclose you a copy. I need not say anything about your sad bereavement here as Robert (Allen?) has spoken of it in his note, but you know you have my sympathy and that of all the family. You wanted all our pictures, but we have none of ours except what was taken 23 years ago. We have none of the children's except Hughes, and the only one we had was sent to Grandma, and she had it put in the same frame with all yours. We will get them taken shortly and send them to you. We have got all your's except Mary's (Hensley) baby. They all look very nice indeed. We were very glad to hear that Robert and Hugh's (Allen) families were all well, but we were very sorry to hear that you did not know anything at all of Francis. You might tell Hugh and Robert the first time you write to them that we would like very much to hear from them.
With kind love to you all. I remain your affectionate sister.
Signed Margaret Ann Jackson.

Notes for JOHN SLOAN:
Note #1: John came to America and arrived in St. Louis on 13 Nov 1850.
History of Knox County, page 852. ..jaf
Note #2: SLOAN, John, SEX=M, Born 12 Oct 1827 in County Antrim, Ireland, Married 13 Jun 1854 in Davenport, IA for 34 years, Died 27 Apr 1889 (near) Yates City, IL at age 61; According to 1899 "History of Knox County, Illinois," page 966, John and Sarah Sloan were married in Davenport, Iowa.; Birth and Baptism of Oct. 29, 1827 recorded at 1st Donegore Pres. Church. OBITUARY FROM UNKNOWN SOURCE BUT PROBABLY BIGGSVILLE CLIPPER--DATE UNKNOWN: Hon. John Sloan, of Knox County, died at his residence near Summit (present day Douglas, IL) on Saturday last, in his 62nd year, the remains being interred on Sunday, at Yates City. Mr. Sloan honorably served his district one term in the Illinois House of Representatives, and for one or two terms was one of the valued commissioners of his county. He had several relatives living in this vicinity, which caused him to make frequent visits to our town, and this fact gave him quite an extended acquaintance in Henderson County; and we know that none of our people ever came in contact with Mr. Sloan without the feeling that they had met a gentleman whom it was a pleasure to greet, and one in whom they could trust as a friend. His brothers, Henderson and James Sloan, and sister, Mrs. Rachel Magee, besides nephews and nieces and friends to the number of 18 or 20, went to Knox (County) on Saturday, and remained till after the burial; the former, Mr. Henderson Sloan, having spent most of his time for several weeks at the bedside of his brother, whose illness extended over a period of nearly three months. The following we cull from a Knox (County) newspaper: The funeral services over the remains of the late Hon. John Sloan were held at his late residence two miles north of Summit at one o'clock yesterday. Long before the hour vehicles began to arrive from all directions. The assemblage was very large and was comprised not only of relatives and neighbors from Yates City, Summit, Maquon and neighborhoods, but many from Fulton and Peoria counties. There was a marked feeling of regret and respect for the deceased. Very few indeed were there but could recount some generous or friendly act of their old friend. We doubt if Knox County will ever lose one more universally beloved and honored. Rev. Duncan, of Yates City, conducted the service. He took for his text Matt. xxiv: 24, "Be ye also ready." His sermon was a touching tribute to the memory of Mr. Sloan. The two brothers of the deceased were present with their families and the family of a deceased brother was also present. The floral tributes were very fine and many. The music was beautifully rendered by a mixed quartett under the leadership of Mr. Lawrence, hardware merchant of Yates City. The casket was tastefully draped, and had simply the sentiment "At Rest" upon it. Mr. Sloan left many friends who deeply sympathize with his family in their bereavement. The cortege was a mile and a quarter long. The remains were conveyed to the Yates City cemetery and buried in the Sloan family lot. Besides the brothers and sister above mentioned, Mr. Sloan leaves two other sisters--Mrs. Margaret McKee of Biggsville, and Mrs. Robt. Blair of San Lucas, Cal."
Note#3: FROM 1886 PORTRAIT AND BIOGRAPHICAL ALBUM OF KNOX COUNTY ILLINOIS--Page 347:
"Hon. John Sloan--The annals of Knox County would be incomplete without the notice of this gentleman, who has shown himself not only possessed of high mental attainments, but of that good judgment, strength of character and unvarying integrity that win the respect of all with whom he is connected. He is a resident of Salem Township, and the citizens of his district feel no small degree of pride in his merits, not only as a private citizen, but as a politician and a public man. Mr. Sloan is a native of Ireland, and was born in Country Antrim, Oct. 12,1827, and is the son of James and Mary (Beck) Sloan, both natives of the county. The grandfather of Mary Beck was originally from Scotland, and emigrated to Ireland in the seventeenth century. The Sloans were from Scotland, and our subject was reared in his native county, obtaining his education in the schools of his neighborhood. At the age of 18, entering a wholesale grocery store and bakery, he served an apprenticeship and worked as journeyman for four years. After an interval of four years, as stated, he assisted his father on the farm, working there until 1850. At that time, not content with the ordinary lot of the average young man in his country, he emigrated to America, setting sail from Belfast, Sept. 13, 1850. He changed vessels at Liverpool and subsequently landed at New Orleans, by way of which city he continued his journey up the river to St. Louis where took a packet, and coming up the Illinois River completed his trip. Accompanied by a brother (Henderson) who had joined him at Liverpool, they set out on foot for Oquawka, which was 100 miles distant, arriving there Dec. 13 of the same year. Our subject found employment, as do the generality of willing workers, and engaging at $13 per month, he labored for eight months, and in the fall of 1851 joined a surveying party, Oquawka Railroad. In December 1851, he drove the first stake east of the Mississippi River for that corporation, and, working one month as chainman, he was promoted to the position of assistant engineer. Remaining with this company until 1857, he bought on Section 4, Salem Township, 72 acres, of land, and there erected a house and commenced to cultivate it. He has added to his farm from time to time until he owns nearly 800 acres, of which nearly all is improved, and some pasture. He raises the small grains, and is interested in the breeding of Shorthorn cattle, his favorite breed of stock. Mr. Sloan was married June 13, 1854, to Sarah Allen, of County Antrim, Ireland. She is the daughter of Hugh and Sarah (Caulfield) Allen, the date of her birth being Nov. 22, 1832. Seven children have grown up about them, three of whom they have now lost by death; remaining four are as follows: Mary, wife of Dr. J. W. Hensley, of Yates City; Hugh; Sarah, wife of E. H. Ware, of Summit; James; Susan, one those deceased, was born Oct. 7, 1865, and died at the early age of 14, just at the dawn of womanhood, July 27, 1879; Johnnie, born Oct. 8, 1872, died July 27, 1879; Jessie died the following August, aged two years and six months. The last three named died of diphtheria. Mrs. Sloan is a member of the United Presbyterian Church. Mr. Sloan has filled satisfactorily a number of local political offices. He served as Supervisor from 1869 to 1878, at which time he resigned, having been elected to the State Legislature. He was on the committees on agriculture, horticulture and township organization. He was re-elected in 1882, and held the office in a manner reflecting credit upon him. In Politics he has been a Democrat ever since he became a voter. He is connected with the Yates City Lodge, No. 488, Chapter No. 98, R.A.M. He was also appointed to serve on the building committee of the jail, with other worthy citizens of Knox County, and may be found generally as having a voice and hand in her most useful enterprises. Hugh, his son previously named, was born in Salem Township, May 19, 1858, and united in marriage with Miss Nora Baird, daughter of Demetrious and Charlotte (Wheeler) Baird. They reside in Salem Township, and he is actively engaged in agricultural pursuits, his home being situated on Section 3. Mr. Sloan is at present time a member of the Board of Supervisors, and is on the building committee of the Court House." ..... contributed by Ray Archer, Abingdon, IL

(near) at age 13; Buried in Yates City, IL Cemetery. FROM NEWSPAPER CLIPPING--DATE AND SOURCE UNKNOWN:
"DIED--At the residence of their parents, two miles north-west of Yates City, on Sunday forenoon, July 27th, 1879, of catarrhal diphtheria, Miss SUSAN J. K. SLOAN, aged 13 years., 9 ms., 20 days, and JOHN, aged 6 years 9 mos. 21 days, children of Mr. and Mrs. John Sloan, Salem township. The circumstances attending this double bereavement on the same day are of a peculiarly distressing character. Little Johnny's father had been called to Chicago on business, on Friday morning, July 18th. On Saturday morning he received a telegram informing him that Johnny was seized with the disease which carried him off. Later news arrived that a younger child Jessie was also ill. On Sunday evening word reached him that they were worse, and he hastened home on Monday. On Wednesday Susan was taken ill of the disease in a most virulent form. Her throat swelled so that she died between 3 and 4, on Sunday morning, of actual suffocation.
Little Johnny was differently affected, and was able to speak up to the hour of his death. About half an hour before he died he bade all the members of the family good bye, and being asked if he was going to bid Mary (Hensley) good bye, the dear little fellow lifted up his voice so as to be heard a considerable way off--"Good bye, Mame!" and shortly after expired. These children were very much beloved by all the family, and all who knew them. Miss Susie was a bright girl, remarkably intelligent for her years, advancing in scholarship, and was endowed with considerable musical talent. She was moreover kind and affectionate, and had completely won the hearts of her parents. Little Johnny was no less remarkable for his youthful promise, and was his father's chief pride and joy, as indeed he was of all the family. How many children of his age would have had the strength of soul to bid all the other six members of the family adieu when his arms and lower limbs were black with mortification, and cold as in death. It was an event never to be forgotten by any who witnessed it, and remarkable as an instance of heroic affection in one so young. The funeral services were conducted at the house by Rev. Mr. Littell of Yates City, and were very numerously attended by sympathizing friends for miles around. The family desire to express their great debt of gratitude for kind aid and timely assistance in their great affliction." .....johnf

Note #5: 1886 - Biographical Sketch of Knox County - Page 860.
Hugh C. Allen was born in County Antrim, Ireland, Nov. 30, 1834. He was a son of Hugh and Sarah (Caulfield) Allen. Both parents died in Ireland. There were eight children, six of whom are living. Three of them are residents of the United States. The subject of this sketch left his native land in 1857, and came direct to Knoxville, Ill., and made his home with John Sloan, his brother-in-law, and remained with him until the breaking out of the (Civil) war. In July, 1861, he enlisted for three years, as a private in Co. E, 7th Iowa Vol. Inf. The 7th Iowa was a part of the 1st Brigade, 2d Division of the 16th Army Corps. Mr. Allen was wounded at the battle of Belmont, and was furloughed for thirty days; then rejoined his regiment and was in the battles of Fort Henry and Donelson. On the 15th of February, 1862, he went into the hospital, and did not rejoin his command until in September of the same year, when he was discharged on account of disabilities. He returned home, where he remained until January, 1863, when he again joined his regiment, and participated with them in the siege of Atlanta. After the fall of the latter place, the regiment became a part of the 15th Army Corps. The command then went with Sherman in his "march to the sea," up through the Carolinas, and on to Washington, where the 7th Iowa passed in general review. The regiment was discharged and mustered out at Davenport, Iowa, in July, 1865. Mr. Allen returned to his home, and engaged in farming and stock-raising, in which he still continues. On the 17th of March, 1863, the subject of our sketch, was united in marriage to Miss Eliza J. McKee, a native of County Antrim, Ireland, daughter of Samuel and Margaret (Sloan) McKee. She was born Sept. 27, 1844. Mr. and Mrs. Allen are the parents of seven children. Their names in the order of birth are: Maggie M., Hugh, Sarah, Mary, Samuel, Mattie and Millicent. Both parents are members of the United Presbyterian Church. Politically Mr. Allen is an adherent of the Republican party. He is a member of Dan. McCook Post, No. G.A.R., of Elmwood, Ill. .....johnf

H. C. Allen (Sr.?) got on to an extra freight running west Tuesday evening at Yates City for the purpose of coming home. We suppose the freight made no attempt to stop at Summit, but was running about 25 miles an hour. At this rate of speed Mr. Allen stepped off just a short distance west of the platform: he remained unconscious for about two hours. At this writing he bids fair for a rapid recovery. No bones broken, Dr. Knowles and Hi(e)nsley are treating him.

H. C. Allen (Sr.?) received a serious shaking up at Summit station a few days ago by jumping off of a train while it was under considerable headway. We understand he was unconscious for a time and his bruises, while not fatal, may keep him within doors for some time. Moral: Wait until the train stops.

Everett--From Everett Estate.
Note: This letter was written shortly after the death of Julia McKee, John and Mary McKee's oldest daughter and shortly after the death of an infant baby born to Herman and Julia [Sloan] Corey.
May 13th
Dear Maggie,
It has been a long time since I have written to you but I knew you were at John's and heard from me when the rest did. I expect you have not got rested up yet from being down taking care of Julia. I was afraid that when the excitement was over, you would be so wore out that you would be sick. I had a letter from father one week ago Friday. He said that they were looking for you down on Thursday but you did not go. Was Julia hard to take care of? What Doctors did they have? Someone said that had 5. I was very sorry for her and for her folks, indeed, and I was sorry I could not go down at that time. Herman thought at first that he could not go and leave me but his Mother took care of me that night and I got along all night. He told me all he could about the funeral. I saw Eliza Jane (maiden name McKee--John McKee's sister, married name Allen) up town once since she came home. She told me some of course, not much for I was in the buggie and Sam (Eliza's son Samuel Allen) was ready to go home. She said she would be over some day. She told me about Maggie McKee and so did Herman. I do hope Mrs. Sam Holmes will run her out of B. (Biggsville) I have not seen Aunt Sarah (maiden name Allen, married name Sloan--John Sloan's wife) since she was down to Biggsville. I saw Jimmie (Sloan) one week ago yesterday. He was wanting to know if I had heard if Jake and Dora (Tharp) had the mumps. I expect he thought if they had, he was in for it for he never had them. He said that he just got to speak to you and that was all. Father said that John's folks had lots of friends in their trouble. Herman thought Julia looked so nice and every thing was nice in every way. He was there such a short time. He was going Wednesday evening when Aunt Sarah (Sloan) came over and said the funeral was not till 2:00 on Thursday. He did not count to be gone 2 nights. I wish he could have stayed longer but it would not have been a good time to visit. I want to go to Elmwood tomorrow and to Yates to get Maro a suit of clothes and I want a dress made and a hat of some kind. I have not been any place for so long I have nothing to wear. I have been up town since but not out of the buggie. I am around doing some of the work now. The worst trouble is my feet and limbs. They are so stiff. Answer this when you can. It is supper time and time to feed the chicks. We have one hundred and 85 and 8 more hens sitting. I have not fed any yet. I have not been in the cellar but once and once? up stairs.
Hope are all well.
Love to all, Julia

4-20-1900 - Biggsville Clipper - Page ? - (Death of Mother McKee)
Mrs. Margaret Sloan McKee died last Wednesday morning, the 19th inst, at 2 o'clock, at the age of almost 84 years. Her death was not unexpected. She had been quite feeble for some time, owing to the infirmities of old age, and the end came as to one in peaceful slumber. Margaret Sloan was born May 2d, 1816 at Donegore, country Antrim, Ireland. On the 13th of August 1832, she was united in marriage with Samuel McKee, who died in 1865. To them were born eleven children, three of whom have preceded their mother to the land beyond. The eight children who survive are James, of Creston, Iowa, John, Adam, Henderson, Mrs. Millicient Sloan and Mrs. Margaret
Beggs of Biggsville, and Samuel and Mrs. Allen of Knox county. Mrs. McKee came to America, and to Biggsville in 1874, and here she has since resided. Besides her sons and daughters, she leaves 35 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren to mourn her loss. A good woman has gone to her reward. The sympathies of the community are with the bereaved relatives. Mother McKee was a Christian woman and an exemplary member of the U. P. church. Funeral services will be conducted by her pastor, Rev. J. A. Renwick, at the church this afternoon at 2 o'clock, after which the remains will be laid to rest in the Biggsville cemetery.

HUGH C. ALLEN PASSES OVER THE GREAT DIVIDE AN OLD AND HONORED CITIZEN OF DOUGLAS IS CALLED HOME.
Hugh Caulfield Allen was a son of Hugh and Sarah "Caulfield" Allen was born in Donegore, "County Antrim", Ireland, Oct. 31, 1834.
When a young man, in the year of 1856, he immigrated to America stopping a few days in New York City before continuing his journey to Knoxville, Ill, which was the county seat of Knox. Co. at that time. During July 1861 he enlisted with Co. E in the seventh Iowa Infantry. Some time afterward he was promoted Orderly Sargent. At Belmont, Mo, he was wounded and taken prisoner Nov. 1861 and at the siege of Fort Donaldson he received the second wound. He laid eleven weeks in the hospital at Mound City, Ill. His brother-in-law, the late John Sloan, brought him home and he remained until the following autumn "1862" when he joined his Company again. He marched with Sherman's Army to the sea, and was at the review at Washington. In July 1865, he was mustered out at Davenport, Iowa. What greater sacrifice could one offer than to give his life for his country? Mr. Allen was united in marriage to Miss Eliza Jane McKee, March, 17, 1862, at Biggsville, Ill. To this union were born seven children. Five daughters and two sons. One son Hugh C.(Jr.), preceded his father to the better land, his death occurring March 22, 1897. The names of the surviving children are: Mrs. Margaret M. Ray, Rapatee, Ill., Mrs. Sarah Loudin, Winfield, Iowa, Mrs. Ann Hunter, Astoria, Ill., Samuel McKee Allen, Yates City, Ill., Mrs. Mattie Upp, Kansas, Miss Millicient, at home. He also leaves one sister, Mrs. Sarah Sloan of Yates City. The deceased was appointed post master at Douglas, Ill., and had charge of the office Nov. 1897; said position he has held ever since to the time of his death. He was very patriotic, an ardent supporter of republican principals and was faithful in the discharge of his official duties, a man that was esteemed by the general public. He died May 31, 1907 about 5:20 o'clock in the morning, making his age 72 years and 7 months. He became a member of the United Presbyterian Church in Douglas, Ill., in 1872. He was a man of kindly disposition, rugged honesty and a fine sense of justice, and was held in the highest esteem by a large circle of relatives, friends, neighbors and acquaintances. The funeral was held at his late residence in Douglas, Rev. W. J. Manifold, of the Yates City Presbyterian church conducting the services. A male quartet, composed of L. A. Lawrence, M. W. Thomson, Geo. Montgomery and A. J. Lawrence conducted the singing. At the close of the services, a very large funeral procession followed the Hearst to the Yates City Cemetery, where a great concourse of people were already assembled, and there in that beautiful resting place of the departed dear ones, his army comrades tenderly, reverently, sorrowfully, lowered the flower covered casket of the departed hero into the windowless palace where sleep the sacred dead, while a vast concourse of mourning relatives, sorrowing friends and sympathizing neighbors bowed in solemn sadness about the open grave.
CARD OF THANKS
We return our sincere and grateful thanks to all dear, kind friends and neighbors, for their help during the illness and death of our loved husband and father, and for their kind sympathy, as well as for their presence at his funeral.

Died of Tuberculosis of Lungs according to YC Cem. info. FROM CLIPPING IN ELIZA SLOAN GEORGE'S SCRAPBOOK--Source and date unknown. "OBITUARY--Mildred Allen. Mildred Allen was born in Knoxville, Ill., July 9, 1876, and passed away at the home of her sister, Mrs. J. H. Ray in Yates City, Ill., on the morning of August 5, 1925, being at that time 49 years and 26 days old. Most of her girlhood years were spent in and around Douglas, Ill., where she assisted her father in the post office while he was postmaster at that place. She also taught music for a number of years. After her father's death she took care of her aged mother for 12 years. When the home was broken up through death of the mother, she spent a few years in work at Peoria, Ill. Then her work took her into several states of the union by means of which she was enabled to travel a good deal and see much of our country. For the past four years she had been engaged in the task of nursing in tubercular sanitariums. While in this work of love and sacrifice she contracted the dread disease and from it she was brought to this untimely death. But she has found great joy in this kind of work. Her father and mother have passed on before her. She was one of a family of seven children, two brothers and sister have preceded her in death, the one brother Samuel, passing away just seven weeks ago. The other brother, Hugh and the sister, Mrs. Sarah Loudin, passed away some time ago. The three surviving sisters are: Mrs. J. H. Ray, of Yates City, Ill.; Mrs. J. S. Hunter, of Canton, Ill., and Mrs. Mattie Upp of Yates City. There are several aunts and uncles besides a host of other relatives and friends who are deeply grieved at this, her passing. She was a member of the Daughters of the Grand Army of the Republic. So today her work is all done and she sleeps leaving with us the consciousness of her faithfulness in the tasks her hands to do. Funeral services were held at the home of J. H. Ray in Yates City, Ill., at 1:30 p.m. Friday, August 7. Rev. C. W. Leonard officiated. Burial was made in the Yates City cemetery." .....johnf

ROBERT ALLEN Died.
Robert Allen of Indiana township died at his home at 11 o'clock a. m. Friday, August 18, and was buried in the South Star cemetery on Saturday, August 19, 1905. Owing to Mr. Allen's views concerning religious affairs the ceremonies were simple and brief. A choir consisting of D. J. Hanna, P. A. Moyers and Misses Bertha Hinds and Olive Kackley went out from Hill City and sang a few anthems while the remains were viewed by the large throng of friends and sympathizers. The funeral procession was then formed consisting of some seventy-five or eighty conveyances. The ceremonies at the grave consisted of a song by the choir, the reading of Mr. Allen's biography and an eulogy by the editor of the Reveille, closing with a few well chosen remarks and a prayer by Rev. Heitmeyer of Hill City. That Mr. Allen was held in high esteem by all who knew him was evinced by the large concourse of people who gathered to pay their last respects to the deceased and the marked sympathy for the bereaved family. Our biography and eulogy follows:
"Robert Allen was born in County Antrem, Ireland, on the 23rd day of March, 1843, and passed from this life on the 18th day of August, 1905, being at the time of his death 62 years, 4 months and 25 days old. He came to America at the age of 22 years. In 1866 he was married to Miss Anna Higgins, who still survives and who, through storm and sunshine, had remained his faithful and loving wife. There were born to them a family of seven children, six of whom are still living, as follows: Mrs. Katie Jackson, Mrs. Bessie Kline, Mrs. Laura Kline, Myra and Alice Allen and Robert Allen, jr. Mr. Allen brought his trusting wife and flock of little children to this community when all was wild and uncertain. Through all the years of failures and discouragements the family cheerfully strove to do the best they could, always possessing a sturdy, unrelenting faith in the wisdom and courage of the family oak now lying low in the cold slumber of death. Out of willing hands and faithful hearts they carved here a modern home which he was all too soon to leave.
"He was not old a men sometimes become, but the deadly grip of a wasting disease seized his vital forces and slowly sapped his life away. Through all the months of lingering pain his naturally strong and vigorous mind kept on the even tenor of its way. During his whole life he did much reading and thus became a widely informed man. He was a devoted lover of truth and faithfully followed the mandates of his liberal reasoning. He believed that the first principle of honesty was to be honest with himself. That he was equally honest with all the world you are all his living witnesses. In all my close association with him during fourteen years, I have yet to discover the first unkind act, the first unfair advantage over a fellow being that he has ever shown or taken. Because of this high integrity he was respected, and his calm, deliberate judgment was often in demand where there were difficulties to arbitrate. His knowledge, his sense of justice and his acknowledged power as a reasoner made him a conspicuous figure in the community. He was truly a man among men.
"His faithfulness to his powers of reason led him away from the customs and accepted beliefs of the age in which he lived. But that he honestly and sincerely believed in the results of his final death-bed analysis not one of you will question. Truth was his God and reason the way. He could not help thinking and he dared to live and die in the fields that his reason had so carefully cultivated. Such sublime faith is found only in the bosom of a martyr. He walked to the bank of the black river of eternity and plunged in without uttering one faltering word of fear for the righteousness of his judgments. He lived a good life and he kept his faith in spite of doubts and hopes and fears. Search the world's history page by page and of all the characters that stand out in bold relief there are none that lived and died a greater faith than his. Out of the gracious goodness of a God's heart can such a life and such a faith be fruitless of its just reward?
"To the sorrowing family there is but little in this hour of grief that we can say to soothe the anguish of their hearts. They have a right to believe that the lowly one now lying here is not worse off than all the other countless dead. They have a right to believe that Nature's God is just and merciful in passing judgment upon an honest life and a noble faith. They have a right to believe that if there is a future life beyond the grave that the surest way to reach it is to be faithful to our highest conceptions of truth and righteousness. In witnessing the passage from life to death of one who is near and dear to us, we are prone to cry out in anguish against the cold ministrations of the grim reaper. But could we lift the veil and see beyond our selfish interests I think 'twould tell a different story. Instead of its being the cold, clammy hand of an invading enemy it would prove to be the loving hand of a friend in disguise. When the bodily organs have ceased to perform their functions, the mad heart has ceased its beating, the blood no longer courses through its accustomed channels, the stomach no longer takes its nourishment, the lungs have ceased to drink the breath of heaven and the brain no longer throbs with heaven-born wisdom, when the body is torn and rent in agonies of pain, then death with its kindly hand steps in and puts a merciful end to further torture and distress. Death never comes except to put an end to a worse condition. Death is not a cause; it is only a result. We speak of death as doing this or of doing that, but in reality it comes only as a ministering angel to relieve us when to live under the necessary conditions thereafter would be worse than death. And now when we consign to the grave all that remains of this husband, father, friend, let us feel that he is sweetly sleeping in the army of the ministering angel that so graciously swept him into unconsciousness that knows no awakening her for us.

FROM 1886 PORTRAIT AND BIOGRAPHICAL ALBUM OF KNOX COUNTY, ILLINOIS --Page 515: "J. W. Hensley, M. D., whose portrait we take pleasure in presenting to our readers, is one of Knox County's most prominent and worthy citizens, and was born in Montgomery County, Ky., Nov. 21, 1836. His father, Evan S. Hensley was a Virginian, born in 1809, and his grandfather, Elijah Hensley, also claimed Virginia as the State of his nativity. Elijah Hensley removed to Kentucky about 1815, and was among the early settlers in Montgomery County. Buying timber land, he cleared a farm, upon which he passed the remainder of his days, dying at a good old age in the home which had been the fruit of his ambition and unremitting toil. He had served in the War of 1812 receiving a wound in one of the engagements, and had also participated in some of the Indian Wars. For his time he was a man of good education, was well informed and a great reader. The father of Dr. Hensley grew to manhood in Kentucky, reared on a farm. He commenced teaching when quite a young man, and followed that profession for a number of years. He was united in the bonds of matrimony with Anis Anderson, also a native of Virginia, and they settled down in Montgomery County, where he engaged alternately in farming and teaching. In 1866 he removed to Illinois, locating in Elba Township, where he bought a farm and devoted his attention largely to it up to the date of his death, which took place Dec. 22,1870. His widow still lives on the farm. Dr. Hensley grew to manhood in Montgomery County, Ky., receiving a common-school education and early displaying an industry that won him golden opinions from teachers and pupils. In due time he entered the Preparatory Department of Transylvania University, at Lexington, Ky., where he applied himself studiously for one year. In 1855, he came to Illinois and engaged in teaching in McDonough County. Thus he gained the means with which to continue his education. Going to Abingdon, Knox County, he entered Cherry Grove Seminary, and there assumed the role of pupil and teacher alternately for the next five years. His last term was at Vermont, Fulton County. He then read medicine with Dr. Hamer, of that place. He entered the St. Louis Medical College, at St. Louis, Mo., attending lectures during the sessions of 1860-61, and then commenced the practice of his profession at Summum, Fulton County. Three years later, he removed to Yates City, where a large and lucrative patronage rewarded his efforts, which now extends into Peoria and Fulton Counties. In 1864 he opened a drugstore, one of the best in Knox County, and in 1866 he entered Rush Medical College at Chicago, graduating in the spring of 1867 with the degree of M. D. Dr. Hensley has been twice married, his first wife being Miss Elizabeth Miller, of Fulton County, their nuptials being celebrated April 9, 1858. Mrs. Hensley was the daughter of David Miller, a pioneer of Sangamon County, and at her death, April 14, 1876, left four children--Dora, wife of A. M. Smith, living at Irving Park, Cook Co., Ill.; Herman J., a student at Rush Medical College; Lula M., wife of W. W. Lind, living at Albuquerque, N. M.; and Grace B., now residing at home. His second marriage occurred Jan. 14, 1877, with Miss Mary Sloan, of Salem Township, born July 31, 1856, and the daughter of John and Sarah (Allen) Sloan. For their union have sprung two children--Edith Jen, and Susie J. The Doctor is a member of Yates City Lodge, No. 448, A.F. & A.M., Eureka Chapter, No. 98, Yates City, and Galesburg Commandery, K. T. He is also a member of the Military Tract and State Medical Societies, besides belonging to the American Medical Association. He is a man of large usefulness in his immediate community; has served as Supervisor of Salem Township for two years; has been President of the City Council and a member of the Village Board of Education, taking active measures in forwarding the grading of schools. His religious belief is Presbyterian, to which church he is united as a member by profession of faith. He is an earnest worker, a close student and a deep thinker, is honest and upright and has gained the success granted to those who struggle bravely to achieve an ambition. In politics, Dr. Hensley is Democratic, and in 1872 was nominated in convention assembled to represent Knox and Mercer Counties in the State Legislature,but was defeated owing to the prejudice growing out of the removal of the county seat from Knoxville to Galesburg. He is a member of the Pension Board of Surgeons, which meets at Galesburg once each week, but not-with-standing, his interest is his profession and its various avenues of usefulness, he is fond of agricultural pursuits and is the owner of a fine farm in Salem Township. This comprises 280 acres, on sections 12 and 13, furnished with farm buildings, commodious and convenient, and well stocked with Hereford and high-grade Shorthorn cattle, horses and hogs. In carrying on his farming operations, he gives employment to a number of persons, and while thus benefiting them, secures much pleasure and satisfaction to himself."
FROM YATES CITY BANNER--Nov. 18, 1904--Page 1:
Note #2: "A feeling of deep sorrow prevaded this entire community Monday morning, November, 14, 1904, when the telegraph flashed the news that Dr. J. W. Hensley had departed this life at his home in Peoria, at an early hour that morning. It was known to some of the people here that he was sick, but only a very few were aware that he was dangerously ill, and even they did not fully realize that the end of a busy and useful life was so near, and the announcement of his death came as a shock to all our citizens.... He was married April 14, 1877, to Miss Mary Sloan. To them were born two children, Mrs. Edith Dalmar of Chicago, and Mrs. Susie J. Davis of Oklahoma City.... In politics, he was a Democrat, and was an active worker for the interest and principles of his party. In religion, he was a Presbyterian, but since he has been in Peoria, he has been connected with the Union Congregational Church, to whose support he was a very liberal contributor. In addition to his practice and the conduct of the drugstore, he owned and operated a farm of 180 acres just southeast of Yates City, and in which he was very successful, as he was in all business transactions, being a remarkably able financier. In 1891, he sold his farm to C. M. Bliss, and his residence, drug store and practice to his son, Dr. H. J. Hensley, and moved to Peoria, where he at once took rank among the foremost physicians of that city, building up a large practice, and becoming a large holder of property. A few weeks ago, while visiting his daughter in Oklahoma City, he met with an accident, falling down a stairway, which rendered him unconscious for some hours, and the shock seems to have produced a stroke of apoplexy which he experienced Saturday Nov. 5th, the whole body becoming paralyzed, and resulting in his death Monday morning, as above stated. Dr. J. W. Hensley was a remarkable man, having strong intellectual abilities, intense personality, had rugged honesty, was a moral upright man, a good husband, a loving father, a true friend, a valuable citizen, and to him Yates City is indebted for much of her development. The funeral was held at the family residence, 806 Knoxville Ave., Peoria, Wednesday, Nov. 16, 1904, at the hour of 10 o'clock in the forenoon, the Rev. Alford, pastor of the Union Congregational Church conducting the services, all of his children and many relatives and friends being present. The body was brought to Yates City, arriving on the 4:08 p.m. train, a special car bringing the family, relatives and friends, five of his fellow trustees in the Union Congregational Church, and the Peoria Lodge Knights Templar, of which he was an honored and worthy member, and who had charge of the funeral. Eureka Chapter No. 98, A.F. & A.M., of Yates City, of which he was a member for years, met them at the depot here and marched with the Knights Templars to the cemetery, a large number of carriages filled with the old friends and neighbors followed the hearse bearing the handsome and flower covered casket, and there, while the shadows of night were creeping silently over the world, the tears of sorrow fell, while loving hands placed the body of the husband, father and friend in its silent resting place."

Note #4: FROM 1912 HISTORY OF KNOX COUNTY ILLINOIS--Page 852-854: "Hugh A. Sloan is the owner of four hundred and seventy acres of highly improved and well cultivated land in Elba and Salem townships, Knox County, where he is most successfully engaged in general farming and stock-raising. He resides on the northwest corner of section 3, Salem township, where he has spent practically his entire life, his birth having occurred there on the 19th of May, 1858. He is a son of John Sloan, who was born in County Antrim, Ireland, in 1827, and who was also reared and educated there. At the age of twenty-three years he decided to emigrate to the United States and on the 13th of November, 1850, he landed in St. Louis. He remained there until the 13th of the following month when he and his brother (Henderson Sloan) went to Oquawka (Illinois), where he obtained employment as a member of a surveying crew at thirteen dollars per month. He drove the first stake in the survey made for the lines of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad east of the Mississippi river that year, remaining in service of this company for seven years. During the period of his connection with them he held various positions, having assisted in laying out the road between Galesburg and Peoria, while for a time he was also an engineer. Ambitious and thrifty, he carefully saved as much of his salary as was not required to supply him with the actual necessities of life and in 1857 he had sufficient capital to buy a farm on section 4, Salem township. His ownership but proved an incentive to greater effort, and he applied himself with untiring energy to the cultivation and improvement of his homestead. He met with more than average success in his agricultural pursuits, owing to his concentration and intelligent direction of his activities, and so was able to extend the boundaries of his farm from time to time until he had acquired 800 hundred acres of land. In connection with the operation of his fields he made a specialty of breeding and raising Shorthorn Cattle, being awarded most lucrative returns from both. On the 13th of June, 1854, Mr. Sloan was united in marriage to Miss Sarah Allen, also a native of County Antrim and a daughter of Hugh and Sarah (Caulfield) Allen, natives of the same county. The mother passed away on the 22d of November, 1832, during the infancy of her daughter, Mrs. Sloan. (Other information in John Sloan file disputes this fact.) The paternal grandparents of our subject were James and Mary (Beck) Sloan, who spent their lives in the Emerald Isle. (Note: Mary (Beck) Sloan died in Ireland and her husband James Sloan died in Henderson Co., IL and is buried in the South Henderson Cemetery.) Of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. John Sloan there were born seven children: Mary, the widow of J. W. Hensley of Yates City and Peoria, Illinois, now living in Chicago; Hugh A., our subject; Sarah, who married E. H. Ware, a sketch of whom appears elsewhere in this volume; James, who is living at home with his mother in Salem township; Susan, who was born October 7, 1865, and died the 27th of July, 1879; John, who was born the 8th of October, 1872, and died on July 27th, 1879; and Jessie, who died in August, 1879, at the age two years and six months. The last three were victims of a diphtheria epidemic. Mrs. Sloan is member of the Presbyterian church, in the faith of which denomination the family were reared. The father was a Mason, belonging to Yates City Lodge, No. 488, R. A. M.; and his political views coincided with the principles of the democratic party. He was a man who always took a prominent and active interest in the development of the community and its governmental affairs. From 1869 to 1878 he served as a member of the board of supervisors and was elected to the state legislature, being a member of the committee on township organizations and also the agricultural and horticultural committee. He was reelected in 1882 and in every way proved to be a most efficient and conscientious representative, reflecting credit upon himself and his constituency through his capable discharge of his responsibilities. When the county or town required the services of a man possessed of more than average powers of organization or executive ability, Mr. Sloan was called into requisition. He was appointed to a number of important committees among them being that of the building committee of the Knox county courthouse, and in every instance his duties were ful-filled with a conscientious exactitude rarely to be found in public life. As a friend he was loyal and faithful, in matters of citizenship upright and honorable, while as a husband and father, he was kind and indulgent, and when call to his rest on the 27th of April, 1889, there was deep regret and mourning not only in his immediate circle of family and friends but throughout the community where he had many friends by whom he was held in the highest esteem. Reared on the home farm, Hugh A. Sloan attended the schools of Salem township in the acquirement of his early education, supplemented by a brief period of study in the schools of Elmwood, Illinois. After acquiring such knowledge as was deemed essential to enable him to assume the heavier responsibilities of life, he laid aside his school books and gave his entire time and attention to assisting in the work of the farm. Following his marriage in 1883, Mr. Sloan located on his present homestead, on which at that time there was neither a tree nor a building, but many changes have been effected during the long period of his occupancy, and there are now large commodious barns, substantially constructed outbuildings and a comfortable residence, the beauty and attractiveness of which is much enhanced by the large trees that thickly stud the lawn. During the early years of his agricultural pursuits he operated the farm in partnership with his father, but after the latter's death he took over his present holdings, these comprising a trifle more than half of his father's acreage. His fields are almost entirely devoted to cereals, such as can be used for the feeding of cattle, stock-raising being Mr. Sloan's specialty. He has always been very successful in both and is numbered among the highly prosperous farmers of the community, being recognized as a man whose rewards are only commensurate with the intelligent expenditure of effort. On the 22nd of March, 1883, Mr. Sloan was united in marriage to Miss Ida Eleanor Baird, who was born in Elba township on June 1, 1862. Mrs. Sloan is the only child born of the marriage of Demaris and Charlotte (Wheeler) Baird, natives of Pennsylvania. During the early years of their domestic life they located on a farm of one hundred and sixty acres in Elba township, where Mrs. Sloan was born. Mr. Baird responded to his nation's call and went to the front in defense of the union, being killed in the battle of Resaca. When her little daughter was seven years old Mrs. Baird was married to L. A. Lawrence of Yates City, and unto them were born five children, two of whom are living, as are also the parents, who make their home in Yates City. They affiliate with the Presbyterian church. Of the union of Mr. and Mrs. Sloan there have been born two children, Jessie May and John, both of whom are at home. In matters of faith the family are Presbyterians, and fraternally Mr. Sloan is a member of the Modern Woodmen of America, belonging to the Yates City Camp. His political support has always been accorded to the democratic party and he has filled a number of public offices. He first served as school director, subsequently discharging the duties of road commissioner for eleven years in Salem township, while for ten years he was a township supervisor. In the spring of 1911 he was again elected road commissioner, and he is also a member of the board of review and president of road and bridge committee of Knox county. In the administration of his public duties Mr. Sloan has been as judicious and discreet as in the direction of his personal affairs, discharging his responsibilities in a manner to meet with the approval not only of his constituency but the community at large." .....Ray Archer, Abingdon, IL

Sloan, son of John and Sarah (Allen) Sloan, and the last of a family of seven children, was born May 19, 1858, in Salem township, Knox County, and died at Elmhaven Hospital in Elmwood, July 6, 1948, at the age of 90 years, one month and 17 days. He was married March 22, 1883, to Ida Elnora Baird, and to them were born one daughter, Jessie Mae and one son, John,who passed away Oct. 7, 1946. He is survived by his wife, Ida E. Sloan, who is very ill at this time; his daughter, Jessie M. Skinner, who lives on the home farm near Yates City; four grandchildren, Dorothy Peterson of Galesburg, Hugh A. Skinner, Mary Jean Ford and John V. Sloan, all of Yates City; also four great-grandchildren and a large number of other relatives and many friends, not only locally, but throughout the county and in other states. During his long active life, Mr. Sloan served the people of his community in many political, business, social and benevolent ways. He was road commissioner of Salem township for several years, and supervisor for some 15 years, or more and while so serving, was a member of the road and bridge committee of the county board of supervisors. He was a charter member of the Farm Bureau, a director for 12 years of the Salem Township public library, a director of school district No. 145 (Corey School) in which his home farm was located, a director of the Ideal Telephone Company, which preceded the present Yates City Telephone Company, a stockholder and director of the Yates City Coal Company which operated a coal mine between Yates City and Elmwood many years ago; a stockholder and vice president of the Bank of Yates City for many years;a trustee and treasurer of the Yates City Cemetery Improvement Association, greatly interested in and served on various committees in the Harvest Home Association, assisted in securing the right-of-way for the hard road (Il State Route 8) through Salem township, and in various other ways was a public spirited and most helpful man in community life. His greatest business interest, however, was farming and stock-raising, in which he excelled and his advice was sought by many of his neighbors and friends. As a man of ample means and benevolent spirit, whenever financial aid or assistance of any type was needed by any organization, whether he was connected with it or not, he was always ready to do his full part. While not a member of any organized church, for many years, he gave liberally to the financial support of the local Presbyterian Church. Mr. Sloan was a man of strong character, physique and mind, and his indomitable will power and courage carried him successfully through many a difficult and trying situation in his business and political career." .....Ray Archer, Abingdon, IL

Notes for EDWARD HUGH WARE:
Note #1: WARE, Edward Hugh "Ned", Born 6 Jan 1862 in Douglas, IL, Married 13 Jun 1883 for 38* years, Died 8 Feb 1936 in Douglas, IL at age 74; FROM 1912 HISTORY OF KNOX COUNTY ILLINOIS--Pages 854-855: "E. H. Ware is the owner of a fine farm of six hundred acres located in Salem and Maquon townships, Knox County, that he devotes to general farming and stock-raising. He was born on section 6, Salem township, the farm where he now resides, on the 6th of January, 1862, and is a son of W. K. and Priscilla (Stark) Ware. The parents are now both deceased, the mother having been sixty-two at the time of her demise, and are buried in the cemetery at Peoria, Illinois. W. K. Ware was one of the highly successful farmers and extensive landowners of the pioneer period, having acquired before his retirement five thousand acres of land. Both he and his wife attended the Methodist Episcopal church and in politics he was a republican, but not an office seeker. Of the union of Mr. and Mrs. Ware there were born three children, of whom the eldest, W. D., is now deceased. Their only daughter, Ida H. became the wife of James A. Penick of Sheridan, Iowa; and the youngest member of the family, E. H. is our subject. The youthful years of E. H. Ware were spent amid the scenes of his present home, his early education being obtained in the public schools of Douglas. Later he studied for a term or two at Abingdon and also at Sheridan, Iowa, for a time. Having been reared on a farm he early became familiar with the work of the fields and care of the stock and when old enough to lay aside his school books, was fully qualified to assume the responsibilities of an agriculturist. He was married at age of twenty-one years and immediately thereafter located on the place, where he now resides. Although the property is well improved and in a high state of cultivation, Mr. Ware has only made such minor changes as were necessitated by the passing of time, the buildings all being those erected during his father's life time. He has kept them well repaired and as they were substantially constructed,originally, are practically as good at the present time as they were when erected. Stock-raising has always engaged much of Mr. Ware's attention, and at the present time he is making a specialty of thorough-bred Jersey cattle, while formerly it was Poland China hogs, of which he raised about two hundred annually. All work upon his place is conducted under his personal supervision and he annually reaps abundant harvests, while the returns from stock-raising prove to be equally lucrative. In June, 1882, was celebrated the marriage of Mr. Ware and Miss Sarah A. Sloan of Salem township, where she had been born and reared, a daughter of John and Sarah Sloan. Of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs.Ware there have been born three children: Jessie, who is at home; Priscilla, training for a professional nurse in a hospital in Chicago; and Florence, the wife of William Belden, of Maquon township. Fraternally Mr. Ware is a member of the Modern Woodmen of America, while his political support he gives to the republican party, but is not an office seeker, preferring to give his attention to his personal interests in which he has met with such gratifying success. In addition to his fine farm, Mr. Ware is also one of the stockholders of the Ideal Telephone Company."
FROM 1886 PORTRAIT AND BIOGRAPHICAL ALBUM OF KNOX COUNTY--Page 806: "Edward H. Ware, an extensive farmer and stock raiser, residing on Section 6, Salem Township, is a native of that township, and was born Jan. 6, 1862. His father, William Keys Ware was born April 10, 1814, in Indiana County, Pa., and was the fourth son of Hugh Ware, who was of scotch descent, and whose ancestry settle in the Valley of Virginia in the colonial days. His mother's maiden name was Rebecca Hanson, whose ancestors were Hollanders and settled in the colony,occupying territory in what is now the State of Delaware, long before the War of the Revolution. In 1817, his father left Pennsylvania with his family when his son, William K., was only three years old. He died in Highland County, Ohio, in the fall of the same year. After the death of her husband his mother settled on a small farm near Hillsboro, where with great effort she kept her children together until all were grown. William, being the youngest son, lived with his mother and worked on the farm for several years after he was grown,and owing to her limited means he was deprived of a collegiate course, but acquired a good common-school education. Being ambitious to procure distinction, he determined to study law, and about the year 1840 entered the law office of Judge Scott, at Hillsboro, where he remained two years, when he was admitted to the bar. William Ware opened his first law office at West Union, Ohio, where he remained about a year. Not being very successful, he left there went to Knoxville, Ill., where he opened his second office, but, still failing to
receive a fair practice, after another year's trial, he returned to Ohio and selected a location at Upper Sandusky, where he made a fair beginning and accumulated considerable money. After living in Illinois, the young attorney found Ohio a dull place and determined to return to the Prairie State. About this time a colony from Knox County was about to start for Oregon, and he joined this and in 1847 found himself in that far-off Territory, where he soon began to engage in farming. In 1848, gold was discovered at Sutter's Mill, Cal., and during the fall of that year, in company with a few others, he commenced mining, at what is now Placerville, where he took out considerable dust. This occupation proved too tedious, and an ounce a day too small a return, so he engaged to supply the miners with tools, groceries, flour and beef, the latter on a large scale. He procured a stock ranch in Butte County, and purchasing lean cattle from across the plains, took them to his ranch, where they soon became in good condition for beef. The supply of cattle from the source, however, became inadequate, and he then purchased of the Mexicans, in Lower California, large quantities of wild cattle, paying for them in gold-dust. While there he encountered many hairbreadth escapes from what often appeared eminent danger and possible death, but he was so fortunate that in 1852, he returned to his old home with $100,000, all accumulated by his own honest energy and effort. Being a man of strict integrity, Mr. Ware made it his first business to hunt up his old creditors and paid, principal and interest, although they were all barred by the statute of limitation. William K. Ware married Miss Priscilla Stark, daughter of Dr. Stark, an eminent physician at Fairfield, Jefferson County, Iowa,and soon settled on a large farm what is now Summit, (Douglas), Knox County, Illinois and engaged in farming and stock-raising with marked success a number of years. Soon after the railroad was complete, Mr. Ware laid out the village of Summit, which is located on his farm. He was extensively engaged in the breeding of fine stock, and also in the cultivation of the soil. His death occurred June 5, 1867. His widow still survives him and is now Mrs. J. W. Diefendorf, residing in Peoria. The parental family numbered three children: William D. resides in
Summit; Ida H. became the wife of James A. Penick, and resides in Chariton, Lucas County, Iowa; our subject was the youngest. The father of our subject was tolerant in his religious views, kind and benevolent to all, and was a firm believer in the Christian religion. When in the enjoyment of domestic felicity and worldly prosperity, he was suddenly taken away while engaged in branding young horses; a pole with which he was controlling them gave way and struck him in the breast with such force that he died in a few hours. By this sad accident, his wife was made a widow and three small children, orphans. Of this family several brothers and sisters remain. His sister, Catherine Thomson, mother-in-law of Ex. Gov. Carey, of Kansas, resides in Leavenworth City; another sister, B. McManas, lives at Ottumwa, Iowa; a brother, John H. Ware, is a banker at Burlington, Mo. The late J. C. Ware, of Fairfield, Iowa, was also a brother. The subject of our sketch grew to manhood in his native State and received his early education in the district school, supplementing the same by an attendance of four terms at Hedding College, Abingdon. After his mother's second marriage, he removed to Iowa, and remained for two years in Lucas County. Subsequently he returned to Salem Township, and with the exception of that two years has remained upon the old homestead, a part of which he now owns. The subject of this notice was married June 23, 1883 to Miss Sarah A. Sloan, daughter of Hon. John and Sarah (Allen) Sloan. She was born in Salem township, December 18, 1861. She has borne her husband one child, a daughter, Jessie. Mr. Ware
devoted much of his attention to the stock business, and has upon his farm, among other blooded stock, two magnificent Clydesdale stallions."

This paper with a host of friends extend heartfelt sympathy to the surviving relatives.
We wish to thank the many friends who so kindly helped and sympathy during the sickness arid death of our dear little girl, also for the beautiful floral offerings. W. G. Kline and relatives. .....contributed by the Graham Co., Historical Society. ..... Opel Jackson.

Note #2: Ivan R. Mort. IVAN R. MORT is a well known banker of Graham County, and is cashier of the American State Bank of Hill City. Nearly all his active business experience has been along the line of banking, and his friends and associates regard him as one of the able men in banking circles of the state.
Mr. Mort was born at Keosauqua, Iowa, August 12, 1878. His ancestors were originally Scotch and were colonial settlers in Pennsylvania. His grandfather, Conrad Mort, was born in Ohio in 1818, and at an early time emigrated to Iowa and settled in Van Buren County, where he died in 1892. Aaron Mort, father of Ivan R., is a resident of Graham County, Kansas, and is one of the successful few who survived the experiences of pioneering in this section of the state. He was born also at Keosauqua, Iowa, August 12, 1848, grew up and married there, and all his experience has been as a farmer. He came to Graham County, Kansas, in November, 1878. He homesteaded 160 acres and took a timber claim of like area, but occupies the former, and altogether owns 640 acres, developed as a fine grain and livestock farm. This farm is twelve miles south of Hill City. Aaron Mort is a democrat, and was one of the first men elected to the office of county commissioner in Graham County. He has also been faithful in his religious duties and is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Aaron Mort married Charlotte Dahlberg, born in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1844. To their marrage[sic] have been born three children: Alvin Ross, a real estate broker at Hill City; Ivan R.; and Carl G., who lives on the home farm.
Ivan R. Mort was too young to remember any of the incidents of the family emigration from Iowa to Graham County, Kansas. As a boy he attended the rural schools of that county, and lived on his father's farm to the age of twenty-four. During 1902-03 he attended the Kansas Wesleyan Business College at Salina.
His first banking experience was as bookkeper[sic] and stenographer with the Graham County State Bank at Hill City. A year and a half later he transferred his services in the same capacity to the American State Bank, and after a year was promoted to assistant cashier. He has been cashier of the bank since November, 1908. The American State Bank was established December 24, 1904, and opened its doors for business January 5, 1905. The officers are: Charles Sperry, president; O. P. King, vice president; and Ivan R. Mort, cashier. The bank, located on Pomeroy Avenue, was capitalized at $20,000, with surplus and profits of equal amount.
Mr. Mort is identified with Hill City in many other relations. He was elected its mayor in April, 1915, and was re-elected in 1917 for another two-year term. He is also treasurer of the local school board and his bank is a member of the Kansas Bankers Association and the American Bankers Association. He is an independent in politics, is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church and is past master of Hill City Lodge of Masons and a member of Colby Commandery of the Knights Templar. He also belongs to Hill City Lodge of Odd Fellows, of which he is a Past Grand, and of Hill City Lodge Ancient Order of United Workmen, and Hill City Chapter of the Eastern Star. He owns an attractive suburban home, including a modern residence and ten acres of grounds.
December 25, 1907, in Graham County, Mr. Mort married Miss Myra L. Allen, daughter of Robert and Anna (Higgins) Allen. Her mother is living in Hill City. Her father, now deceased, was an early day farmer of Graham County. Mr. and Mrs. Mort have two children, Allene, born in February, 1909; and Melva, born April 30, 1912.

He had a keen ear for good music and thoroughly enjoyed playing the baritone horn in the Yates City Band for several years, although his chosen instrument and the one in the use of which he was most highly educated was the violin, which he played with skill and to the great enjoyment and pleasure of his family and friends, not only in the home but on many public occasions. He possessed a strong and resonant bass voice and served his community throughout his entire active life in chorus work and both mixed and male quartet singing. He enjoyed sports such as baseball and football, although he did not personally engage in them to any great extent, but his greatest personal enjoyment in sports was hunting, especially during the duck season in the fall, at which he was most successful, seldom failing to come from a trip with the legal limit in the bag." .....johnf

FROM NEWSPAPER CLIPPING SOURCE UNKNOWN--March 7, 1945: "Maquon, March 7--Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Mathews received a letter Monday from the bomber squadron commander, giving them information about their foster son, Lt. John (Jack) Baxter who was reported missing in action on February 7. Lt. Baxter had been at a base in Italy, and the target on that date was Vienna, Austria. As the Squadron entered the flak area, the observers saw the plane hit on the bomb bay. The crippled plane immediately went into a steep dive, and as far as the observers could see, no parachutes left the plane. They have also received a letter a letter from the squadron's chaplain." "FROM NEWSPAPER CLIPPING SOURCE AND DATE UNKNOWN: "Second Lt. John A. Baxter, son of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Mathews of Maquon, who was reported missing on February 24 remained unreported today but relatives and friends hoped for his safety since no further word had been received from the war department. It was exactly two years ago Monday that John entered the army air corps and qualified for a commission upon completion of his courses. He had gone overseas last October and had been based in Italy. It was from this base that he participated in missions directed against installations in enemy territory. The attack from which he was reported missing was on Feb. 7 of the present year. A letter received by Mrs. Mathews from acting commander of the 15th Air Force, Brig. Gen. C. F. Born, the following is included: "In recognition of the splendid work he has done during the short time that he was a member of this command, John has been awarded the Air Medal. Should there be any change in his status,you will be notified by the War Department. I am indeed proud to have had your son in my command." Regarding the Liberator attack on installations in the Vienna area on February 7, 1945, the letter indicates that Baxter's plane, on which he was navigator, was lost shortly after the formation entered the target area. The letter says; "That from reports we have received, it is known that after the bombers entered an area in which flak was heavy, John's ship received a direct hit on the bomb bay. Observers saw the striken aircraft fall from the formation and go into a steep dive almost immediately. No parachutes were seen before the plane disappeared from view." This letter was dated Feb. 21. In a letter from Chaplain William McNeil of the bomber group, dated Feb. 20, the chaplain writes in part: "I have been asked by a member of the crew to write you a short note, expressing for him and all of us, our deep concern for your son. We join in saying a prayer for his safe return."

"GOD UNDERSTANDS" by Ruby Lacey, dedicated to the Memory of Banche Nicholson.
I tis so sweet to know When we are tired and when the hand of pain Lies on our hearts and when we look in vain For human comfort, that the heart divine Still understands these cares of yours and mine. Not only understands, but day by day, Lives with us while we tread the earthly way; Bears with us all our weariness, and feels The shadow of the faintest cloud that steals Across our sunshine, ever learns again The depth of bitterness of human pain There is no sorrow He will not share. No cross, no burden, for our hearts to bear Without His help. No care of ours too small to cast on Jesus; Let us tell Him all -- lay at His feet the story of our woes' And in his sympathy find sweet repose.

Notes for JESSE JAMES TURLEY:
Note #1: Newspaper account of accident.: Fog plays role in fatality. One killed, eight injured in separate wrecks. By Jay Senter, Journal-World staff writer. Saturday, January 1, 2005
Heavy fog south of Lawrence contributed to two multicar accidents near Ottawa Friday morning. Eight people were sent to the hospital, including a 2-year-old boy in critical condition, and one man was killed. The first accident occurred at 8:50 a.m. on Kansas Highway 68, five miles west of Ottawa. Jesse J. Turley, 21, of Quenemo, was driving westbound on K-68 in heavy fog when he attempted to pass Chad R. Sullivan, 49, of Osage City. During the pass, Turley moved into the eastbound lane where he struck a Ford pickup truck head on, according to the Kansas Highway Patrol. Turley died from injuries sustained in the accident. He was not wearing a seat belt.
Sullivan swerved to avoid the accident, but ended up sideswiping the Ford, driven by John M. Corneliusen, of Shawnee. Corneliusen was taken to Ransom Memorial Hospital in Ottawa. Sullivan and his passenger, Melinda Sullivan of Osage City, were not hospitalized.
Only 10 minutes later and roughly a mile and a half west of the first accident, six vehicles were involved in a pile-up in front of a railroad crossing. Three automobiles and a motorcycle were waiting at the crossing for a train when a pickup truck driven by Marion D. Cochrane Jr., of Edgerton, rear-ended the 2002 Grand Am at the back of the line. This caused a chain of events in which all the vehicles waiting at the train crossing and an additional truck were struck.
The four passengers in the Grand Am, Theresa Dent, 22; Scott A. Sweetwood, 27; Autumn Sweetwood, 1 1/2; and Skylar Sweetwood, 2, all of Quenemo, were taken to Ransom Memorial Hospital. The two children were later moved to Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Mo.
Richard D. Bahr, 56, of Estherville, Iowa, who was waiting at the crossing on a motorcycle, was taken to Ransom Memorial Hospital, as were Cochrane and his passenger, Nicolaus Sleister, 13. As of Friday night, all the adults in the accidents were no longer at the hospital. Autumn Sweetwood was in fair condition at Children's Mercy Hospital, according to hospital officials, and Skylar Sweetwood was in critical condition. .....johnf
