Notes

[HI3757] (Research):For Margaret to marry John Ralston in Harrison Co In in 1827, she would ha ve had to been born bef 1813. I think she must have fibbed on her age wh en she married Nathan Evans since he was so much younger. If the 1850 cens us age of 36 is correct, she would have been born in 1814 and would have b een 13 when married.( Not unheard of ) She could only be a child of Ada m, George or William. We can eliminate George, as his will names his child ren. We can Adam. He could have been married before Polly Baker (he was o ld enough)but his estate listed his minor children, and Margaret not list ed. By fact process and elimination,I have named her a a child of Willia m. Parentage not proven.

Nathan Evans must have adopted her children from John Polson, as they h ad the name of Evans in the 1860 Census.

[HI3758] (Research):Nothing further found. 1820 Harrison Co, IN pg 68 are John, Major, Nathan, Robert and Wilson Taylor.

My Grandmother always said that her mother was a Wolf and her father w as a Burba although I don't remember if she ever told us their given name s. Blanche had brothers and sisters that I remember-Annie, Etta, David a nd Walter. There could have been more but these are the ones I either m et or that my grandmother talked about the most. They all lived in Ohio. A unt Annie was married to a man named East and had a son and a grandson nam ed Lawrence. Aunt Etta was married to a Bruce West. I don't know about chi ldren. I do not know who David and Walter were married to or if they had c hildren.

Sometime in the 1930's she married a man named Harry Lindsay. This would h ave been in the Flint area also. I do not have any other information on hi m. She was already married to him in 1939 when I was born. Harry Lindsay d ied in 1949 or 1950 in a nursing home around Flint. Blanche married a man named Charles Barnes in 1950 in either Oscoda Coun ty or Montmorency County in Michigan.They were married for 2 or 3 years un til he died. In the late 50's or early 60's Blanche married a man named J oe East. I don't know whether she married him in Ohio or in California b ut they lived in California. I don't know the date of Joe's death but Blan che died on February 1, 1973 in California and is probably buried there.

Or there are 2 John Elliotts, or so the theory of Lee Elliott If it helps to shed any light on the possible situation of two John Elliot ts, one of whom might possibly be "mine", I wanted to share with you the n ames of some of his children born in Indiana (the eldest ones would have b een old enough to have married and not be listed with him in 1850). My re asoning is that these names do not appear to have been Elliott family name s:

John Elliott 46 b NC* Mary 28 b MO

Peter J. Elliott b ca 1829 Indiana-mining
Thomas Zacariah Elliott b ca 1831 Indiana (my GGGfather)
Jane Elliott b 1833 Indiana
Martha E. b 1837 Indiana (she says "Illinois" in 1880)
Rachel Susan b 1839 Illinois or Indiana (she says "Indiana" in 1880)
John G. Elliott b 1842 Indiana (for sure). Robert F 1

Note*I don't believe this to be John Elliott from Harrison Co, IN. Men we re not married at age 14. I believe it it pure "conincidence" this fami ly settled in Lincoln Co, MO where Joshua and Sinclair settled.

The mother apparently died during or soon after John G's birth, or may ha ve told Mr. Elliott to take his kids and go to Missouri (which was, alo ng with Texas, synonymous with "Hell"). He married here in 1847 and add ed to the brood.

There are about 40 separate Indiana Land Grants during this period list ed to "John Elliotts" in at least ten different counties, none of them Har rison, even, and about five different marriages in the time-frame mentione d, so I am sure Indiana was lousy with John Elliotts at this time, and f ew of them found it useful to go with a middle initial. It is really look ing for the proverbial needle in a haystack, but, when faced with a mounta in ... I am trying to nibble around the edges, eliminating the impossib le to see what's left.

It is therefore a long shot that "my" John Elliott is the one married to N ancy Evilsizer, but it also appears it may not have been the same John Ell iott who married Caroline Littrell, and, if not, who was he and where d id their kids go?

I love a good mystery, and hope you do too. Thanks for your help.

Sincerely, Lee LRElliott@aol.com

John Elliott who married Caroline Littrell in 1843 in Floyd Co, IN di ed in New Albany 6/6/1887 age 68 recorded in Book CH-15 Pg 81

It is possible that John Elliott and Nancy Evilsizer married in 1820, a nd are the same family shown in the Vigo County, Indiana, census of 184 0, where we know our Rachel Susan was born in 1839. Mrs. John Ellio tt we believe died between 1842, when her youngest was born in Indiana, a nd 1847, when John shows up with the kids and marries Mary Ann Kent, wid ow of John Brotherton, in Warren Co, MO, in 1847. They appear again in 18 50 Lincoln County census with kids b Ind. 1829-1842.

[HI3772] (Research):Banner Press, Cape Girardeau, MO April 1939 Thoms McGee, 79 years old, died Sunday at Southeast Mo Hospital in Cape Gi rardeau where he had been a patient for a week. The body was removed to t he Baker Funeral Home where it remained until Monday when services were he ld at McGee Church. Burial was in the Church Cemetery. members of the Zal ma Masonic Lodge of which he was a member, assisted with the service s. Mr McGEE was born and reared in the McGee community in the edge of Way ne Co, and lived there his entire life. He was a son of Mr and Mrs Blair M cGee. He was one of five children. He was married to miss Elsie EVILSIZ ER of the Cane Creek Community, who died a number of years ago. They had s ix children, but only two survive. Blair of Greenville and Hugh of McGe e, also several grandchildren and one brother, Dan McGee of Advance, a nd a half-brother, Frank STILTS of Arab.

[HI3773] (Research):6 children, only 2 survived

No record of her death in Missouri prior to 1957. Thomas was a widower when he died in 1939
Poss died prior to 1900. 1900 census wife name Effie E, born 8/1864 age 45 gives no time married and no number of children. Thomas was a widower in the 1910 Census

[HI3774] (Research):1900 Cneus says Martha had six children and 5 living, but other census re cords prove she had more children.

In the 1850 Census of Montgomery Co, TN (Cheatham Co, was formed from par ts of Montgomery in 1856), pg 153 in Benjamin Pace age 27 b TN, wife Emi ly 27 b NC and daughter Martha age 2 b TN

[HI3775] (Research):Parentage not proven. 1900 Census says he was born in Ohio. The only family in Ohio this early was Henry. The only two families that did not change the spelling to OR was children of Allen Evilsizer (s/o Henry), but he did not marry until 1836.; and Jacob. Jacob and Hannah Blue had some children not accounted for as she died and he remarried Hannah Franklin. There is a notation of a son born in 1832 to Jacob and Hanna Blue ,( in the files of a deceased researcher) but I have not been able to find the record documented.. If this is true, then this is their son, however He did not appear in the 1850 census. (Perhaps left home young)

IN the 1840 Census appears a son age 5-10 born 1831-1835 confirming he had a son this age

I checked Tennessee census records from 1830 through 1860 for ALL variations of this name. The only family from TN was Phillip, son of Ol Jakob, but he only two daughters. An Unknown male child was listed in the 1830 Census age 10-16, but places of birth for Philip and Anna do not agree with the census records for this John. I conclude he is not a child of Phillips.

I have checked all of the 1840 Census of the Ohio Evilsizers and found all male children accounted for. I then continued to check all 1840 Census records and find no children not accounted and documented.

The descendants of John use the spelling EVILCIZER Family Researcher Patty Evilciser 1815 Park St Springfield, TN 37172 Patty 1821 @aol.com 615-384-4618

Patty says that John told his son that he was a stow-away on a ship from Holland at age 12. He never told his son who his grandfather was. If this story is true, then he would have arrived in 1844. Why does he never show in any census records of 1850 or 1860? If this is true, why did he always give his birth place and his parents birth place in the US? He consistantly says on the census that he and his parents were born in the US.

Searching the files of the Robertson County Registers office, I find that the first land purchased in Robertson County by John Shaw was May 1, 1892. I started with the year 1879. It seems Martha could not write her name and affixed her (x) to these deeds. She later learned to read and to write. Many land transactions are recorded, both buying and selling. On February 6, 1900, John and Martha Evilsizer sold a piece of land to Shelton Evilsizer. It was described as 120 feet with said alley, 120 feet to what is known as Sizer street thence North with the East side of Sizer street, 188 to Brick street said lot under a plank fence. It is of interest to note John Shaw spelled his name Evilsizer as well as Sizer Street every time a transaction was made in the court documents. We are the only family to spell our name with a "c", all other families in the U.S. spell their name with an "s". When I asked Tom Bill he said they had always used the "c". I had to take him to the courthouse and show him his grandfather 's signature. It is assumed Shelton changed the spelling for some reason. I found a copy of the marriage license of Shelton and Annie…the clerk had spelled Shelton's name "Evilcizer", perhaps this the beginning of the changed spelling.

Another plot of land was sold by J.H. Bell to John Shaw on November 27, 1896 at 4 PM. This was 7 acres.

In Pleasant View, Tennessee, there is a cemetery plot that is bordered on all sides with bricks. This is believed to be the resting place of John Shaw, Martha A. Pace Evilcizer, John Shaw, Jr., and John Shaw 's first wife.

In later life it is said John Shaw was a short, heavyset man.

In the family BIBLE, John Shaw's date of birth was written as November 1832. Shelton Lafayette, wrote: "Pa died Friday night at 9 o'clock, May 5, 1909. John died Wednesday morning 10 ¼ o'clock. Ma died Friday morning, 5 o'clock, May the 27, 1904." The John refers to John Shaw, Jr., who died of T.B. at Shelton's home in the year 1904. John Shaw, Jr. was unmarried.

From Pattie 6/2002 (The name Evilcizer (Evilsizer) is of German origin. Depending on which research you go with, the name means either "maker of brick" or "chickpea ". I prefer the maker of brick version because as far back as we can trace, the family occupation has been making brick and or laying brick. There is also a family crest.) Note: This Evilsizer is the ONLY Evilsizer that was a bricklayer.

Several theories come to mind such as : 1. Perhaps he was here illegally as the stow-away theory would indicate and thought he might get into trouble (how much trouble could you get into with immigration in 1880?) 2. It was John Shaw's father or grandfather who was the stow away and the truth got lost along the way. 3. Since his first child was born in 1863, perhaps he was a civil war deserter. (Thus the stow away story)

There is a cemetery in Pleasant View. It is bordered with bricks. It is the resting place of John, his two wives, son and infant daughter. According to burial records and Mr. Walker. We have been there but there are no markers except the brick border. This parentage is not proven. Nona Basset (now deceased) has a note in her files of a record of a male child born to Jacob and Hannah in Champaign Co, Johnson Twp in 1832. The census records do not indicate this male child in 1840 , but since Jacob left all of his children in Champaign
County when he moved to Jay Co, Indiana, it would be possible. My research has led me to a John Evilsizer b 1832 Ohio which shows up in Tennessee in 1870 who remains unknown. Most Ohio Evilsizer's changed the spelling to (OR) with the exception of Jacob and Hannah's children.

[HI3784] (Research):Parentage not proven but supporting facts indicate probable parentage. De ath Cert names father as Benjamin. A son of Henry was named Thomas B Evils izer, the B might stand for Benjamin, indicating father Henry could have h ad the middle name of Benjamin, resulting in this name appearing on the de ath certificate. If not the child of Henry, he would be the child of Jac ob and Hannah Blue. The proof for this is the 1880 census naimg Minor D ye ans his cousin proving he was the child of one of the sons of Henry Evi lsizer Sr. Research shows no Benjamin Evilsizer in any census until Daniel 's brother in 1856.

Facts to support this child are the following: 1830 Census Preble Co, Washinton, OH show male child b 1825-1830 Daniel is son under age 5 in 1830 census Daniel is son age 5-10 in 1840 census Daniel married in 1847 - not appearing as child in 1850 census with parent s Living in Miami Co, Troy Twp Ohio in same area as his Uncle Jacob and Hann ah Blue Jacobs children married in Troy, Miami Co, OH Daniel's cousin Mary Evilsizer (d/o Squire) married James Dye, broth er to Daniels wife Barbara Ann Dye was a sister to both James Dye who marr ied Mary Evilsizer, d/o Squire and a sister to Frances Dye who married Leo nard Morris Evilsizer,s/o Henry and Betsy.

[NI3802] Alvin bought their home at 310 W Jackson Street, Fostoria in 1899. His barber shop was built behind the house and is still standing (2009) but is now used as a garage. He was a hoop maker for 4 years and had a barber shop for 16 years.

[HI3802] (Research):Parents of Alvin from : Victor Grant Hillard, Jr. This is my wife's ancestry. Her great-grandparents were Daniel R. and Mary Emma Jane (Loe) Crow. Daniel R. Crow is the brother of the Alvin Crow you referred to. Daniel died very young leaving three sons. The oldest son , my wife's grandfather, Clifford Leroy Crow was raised and I believe adopted by Mary Emma Jane Loe's older brother Samuel R. Loe. He used the name "Loe."

As to Levi Crow and Elizabeth Grove, my wife's family tradition was that they were born and married in Scotland but that doesn't agree with their responses to the census questions where they both respond that they were born in Ohio.

[HI3829] (Research):McDonough Co, Cemetery records show a William Evilsizer 1855. Since Willi am was in the 1860 Census, this may be a birth date instead of a death dat e. They may have had a son who is buried here. Alyce Lundberg wrote me in a previous message: "In an 1859 school tax list of names, I found a Samuel Long and a Jacob Bo wer as residents of District #4 in Macomb Twp. Martin Etter and William E bilsisor were listed in District #5.

Some records indicate he was born in TN. I dont see how this could be poss ible. Probably an error, or maybe within the territory at this time in his tory. William is named in his fathers will. His age in 1850 he said w as 43 making him born 1807, but parents not married until 1811. Howev er he moved to McDonough Co, IL with his cousin Lewis, son of Adam. He th en gives his age as 49 which is closer to the truth. Phillip has an unkno wn son in the 1830 Census born between 1816 and 1820. This is much too la te for this William unless he lied about age for his younger wife. Unt il a grave is found for William, the mystery will continue as to his pla ce of birth.

I believe the "Caleb " Evilsizer in the 1860 Harrison Co, Morgan Twp, I nd Census who is living with the Smith family is this Spencer. Only chi ld in Harrison Co Census born the same year. This would make sense as he d ied in the civil war and neither Spencer, nor "Caleb" appears in any futu re census.

Dear wife, I once more by the Mercy of God embrace the opportunity to inform you th at I am still well and in good health and spirits. Hoping that those f ew lines may find you and the children enjoying the same or similar so. I will now let you know that me, and Lee and Isaac are still mining to ga ther yet and expect to as long as we stay in California. We are sti ll in Misouri Kanion yet where we have bin for about eight months out in t he mountains about twelve miles from George town and about four miles fr om a little town called Gray Eagle City which is on what is called the middle f ork of a Merican river. We have our provisions packed to us from a tradi ng post about one mile from where we are at work. We have not bin o ut of this Kanion but once or twice farther than the trading post sin ce we have bin here. As we have our letters brought to this trading post by express which go es from the MidleAmerican river to Coloma Sacramento and San Francisco f or letters. This is the surest way to get our letters that is all, thou gh it is very few that I have ever got from you. Not one word have I ev er seen or heard from you except from my Dear father whom I never shall fo rget and one letter that July Ann rote to Isaac. Mentioned that you want ed me to come home which is every thing that I ever have heard from yo u. I Hope that you have not forgotten me. Many is the times that I ha ve thought of you and the dear little children with tears trinkling do wn my face. Many are the letters that I have rote to you and Jacob and Ma rtin and Abraham and never have received but one from any of you and th at was rote November the 6th 1850. But whether that is all you have ro te or not I can't tell but I hope that it is not. It is all that I have r eceived as yet from any of you. I will now let you know that I received o ne on the 14th of this month from my dear father rote May the 12th 1851 wh ich gave me much sadisfaction to hear that they are all well and that he h ad bin out to Crawford last week and found you all well at that time and d oing well and that you looked better than he ever saw you and that the chi ldren were all well at that time but that they had all had the hooping cou gh and that Thomas had had the araciples but was now going to school whi ch gave me much sadisfaction. I have rote to you in two of my letters bef ore to send them all the chance you have. He rote that young son of mi ne was the finest that you ever have had and that you call him Isaac Andr ew which is a great big name. He also informed me that Jacob had lost the ir son. Jesse died with Croop which I am very sorry to hear but for th em not to greave too much for he is better off than any of us and that th ey shall try to meet him where parting shall be no more. I am very sor ry to think that I never will see Mother in law any more in this world b ut I hope to meet her in heaven. Isaac is very much hurt to think th at he will see his dear mother no more in this world but he hopes to me et her in heaven where parting shall be no more. You need not think th at because we are in a farin land that we are like the natives. Have no c are nor fear many is the time that we think of our future days to com e. I now will let you know something about our mining. We are runing wh at is called a long torn which we can make an average of six dollars a d ay each which is tolerable good wages at this time in California these day s. I have not made a great deal as yet. I have got but three pounds of g old at this time but I think if I have my health till fall that I can ma ke that much more which will sadisfy me for the trip to California I expect to come home this winter sometime if God willing and meet you f ace to face and if not I hope to meet you in heaven where meeting sha ll be to part no more. A few lines to Martin. I would like to know wh at is the reason that you don't rite to me. Have you forgotten me intire ly or what is the matter. I have rote two letters to you and never got a ny answer from you yet. If you get this I want you to rite to me as so on as you get it and rite about all the neighbors and relatives, how th ey are doing and getting along in the world and whether there are any impr ovements up in the neighborhood and so on and so forth, about crops fru it and so on.Tell granny Wymon that I saw Charles Dyer last Wednesday a nd that he is well and harty and in good spirits and has got six or sev en hundred dollars in gold now and that he thinks he will come home wi th us next winter to old Indiana to see all his relations and acquaintance s. Nothing but to remain your affectionate brother untill death I send a f ew lines to Abraham. I received one letter that you rote to me which ga ve me much sadisfaction to think that you have not forgoten me. I have se nt you my respects in several letters that I sent home.

Dallas Morning News, 1/30/1969 Man Draws Life Term In Murder
Charles B Evilsizer was convicted Wednesday of killing his estranged wife's aunt and was sentenced to life in prison. Prosecutors had asked for the death penealty. Evilsizer was found guilty in the shooting death Nov 15, 1967 of Mrs Ruth Gunnel at 1433 Casaval. Testimony revealed that Evilsizer went to the home where his wife had gone after a family argument, pulled Mrs Gunnels from the home and fired a bullit into her head. A witness testified that Evilsizer, a real estate salesman, called him hours later and said "he thought he had hurt or killed someone." Evilsizer testified that he has consumed an average of a fifth of liquor per day for several years. Medical witnesses disagreed on the effect on the brain of prolonged use of alcohol. Defense attorney Emmet Colvin argued that Evilsizer was not responsible for his actions. Assistant Dist Attys. Buddy Erwin, Joe Max Hendley and Frank Watts prosecuted the case before a jury in the court of Dist Judge Jim Zimmerman.

EVILSIZER VS STATE Cit as 487 S.W. 2d 113

Charles Bartling EVILSIZER, Appellant, The STATE of Texas, Appellee No 45198 Court of Criminal Appeals Nov 1/1972 ReHearing denied 12/13/1972

Defendant was convicted before the Criminal Court,. No 3, Dallas county. T he Court of Criminal appeals, Odom, J held that if preexisting condition of mind of the defendant was not such as would have rendered him legally insane in and of itself, recent use of intoxicants cusing stimulati on or aggrevation of such preexisting conditions to the point of insani ty could not be relied upon as a defense to commission of crime of murd er with malice...Judgement affirmed

487 SOUTH WEST-ERN 114 Lex.

The record reveals that on November 15, 1967,1 appellant and deceased, the aunt of appellant's estranged wife, were talking in the front yard of deceased's home in Dallas. Following a brief argument, deceased struggled with appellant and shouted to a neighbor, "look out, he's got a gun." During the struggle deceased fell to the ground and appellant put a g un to her head, and said, "This will shut you up, damn you." He then sh ot her and she died from the gun shot wound. Appellant then left in his car. Early the following morning appellant was arrested at his home, whe re a bloody shirt was found. Later, a .25 caliber hull was found in appellant's car which was parked a block from the scene, of the killing. Appellant testified in his own behalf and stated: that during World W ar II he received a blow on the head; that since 1946 he has had a drinki ng problem; and that he received a blow to the head from a pipe in 196 6. He testified that on the day of the killing he borrowed a .25 caliber pistol to go deer hunting; that he consumed around eight beers, two highballs, and "Quite a bit" of a fifth of bourbon. He further stated that a bout 5:30 P.M. he called deceased to talk with his estranged wife; that deceased refused to allow him to talk to her and hung up. From that time un til awaking after dark, sometime between 6:00 and 11:00 PM., he had no memory of events. Judgement was entered in the trial court on 1/29/1969 and Record was filed in Appeals Court, 1/12/1972

"You have found out more information on my father than even I knew. He came to live with me when he was paroled, in fact I was somewhat instrumental in his getting paroled. I did not know the particulars of his crime, only what he told me and that was somewhat different than the information you have. He lived with me for about 3-31/2 years after he was paroled
and definitely had a drinking problem still at that time. You realize my family had not seen him or had contact with him since I was but a child, I do think we had figured somewhere in the time frame of 37 years or there abouts. It was like he forgot us once he and my mother separated." by daughter Pat Mueller

This family puzzling. Proof of children is from conversations with fami ly members, death certificates and other proof. However in the 1920 Censu s, Walter is shown married to a Myrtle and only one male child named Edg ar (which I believe to be Elroy) age 3. We know others were born before 19 20.

Harvey Evilsizer-9/23/1988-Kansas Court of Appeals, Overland Park Kansas, guilty of selling cocaine.

State of Kansas, Appellee vs Harvey R Evilsizer, Appellant No 59,690 Court of Appeals of Kansas. Appeal from Johnson District Court, William G Gray, Judge. Rick Kittel, Assistant Appellant Defender, and benjamin C Wood, Chief Appellate Defender, Yopeka, for appellant. Bruce W Beye, Assts Dist Attorney, Dennis w Moore, Dist Attorney, and Robert T Stephen, Attorney General for appellee.

Harvey R. EVILSIZER appeals his conviction of three counts of sale of cocaine. He contends that the prosecutor's comments during closing argument were improper and require reversal, and further contends that the court erred in admitting evidence about prior drug sales made by John 1. Davis to an undercover agent. Davis was not a codefendant or otherwise involved in the case.
EVILSIZER first complains that the following statements made by the prosecutor during closing argument constitute reversible error.
The prosecutor said:
"They are not saying to you, hey, he didn't do it. What they are saying to you is, hey, you policemen did not do what you were supposed to do. And because you don't have a voice recording or fingerprints, well, then you haven't proven him guilty."
The defense objected at trial to this as an impermissable comment on the defendant's failure to testify and moved for a mistrial. Thu prosecutor argue that this was not a comment on the defendant not testifying, but was a comment on the evidence, or lack of evidence, presented in the case. The court took the motion under advisement. It then made a precautionary comment to the jury and emphasized the jury instructions stating that the burden is upon the State to prove the defendant guilty and that the jury should not consider the fact that the defendant did not testify in arriving at the verdict.
The evidence that EVILSIZER had sold cocaine three times to other undercover agents was not contested. EVILSIZER'S defense concentrated on attacking the training and the reliability of the officers and the methods used by the law enforcement agencies. He repeatedly pointed out that no fingerprints had been taken and he stated that he had been introduced to Harvey EVILSIZER by John T. Davis, who told him that Harvey EVILSIZER could take care of him if he ever needed cocaine. Over the defendant's objection, Officer Jacoby testified that he had twice purchased cocaine from John I. Davis at the Clarett Club. He further testitied that on two separate occasions he had bought a white powder from Harvey EVILSIZER, which tested to be cocaine. Jacoby stated that EVILSIZER engaged in the type of furtive behavior often associated with drug transactions.
Officer Baldwin of the Overland Park police department testified that he also had worked on undercover narcotics cases at the Clarett Club. He stated that he had approached EVILS1ZER about buying cocaine and that EVILSIZER had directed him to John T. Davis, who sold him cocaine. There was no objection t this testimony. Baldwin also testified that he purchased a substance from EVLLSIZER at a later time which was cocaine.
Officer Jacoby's testimony concerning purchases of cocaine from John T. Davis was objected to by EVILSIZER. The court ruled that the information was relevant. EVILSIZER contends that the testimony concerning Davis was prejudicial to him since it tended to show his bad character through Ms association with an alleged drug dealer. He contends that he had not offered testimony concerning his character and that the testimony admitted was a violation of K.$.A. 60-447. At the trial however, the testimony of Officer

Edna remarried John York and had children Lewis and Elizabeth.

As a researcher this could become addictive as I noted one of my Grandfath er Charles Clifford's pall bearers (Long) later married the Betty that w as his step daughter. Also another was a Howell that was Grandmothers bro ther. Edna was a saint she raised the 3 children Betty James Alice Mae th en raised me and also was in on raising Richard Long a son by Betty born a bout the same time I was born in 1942 or earlier as I remember. Edna al so had a still born in 1945 that is in the plot with Edna and John Yor k. Edna also helped and kept for long periods 2 of James and Katherine 's older girls (Vicky and Pam) Edna also kept my son Donald II all summ er for many years. Pam and Vicky stayed with Edna for some periods becau se of the Logan County school situation plus Edna really enjoyed having k ids around and she played a lot of attention to all of us. I remember Ed na saying she was 10 years different than John and John York was born in 1 896 and passed in 1997 8 .?? I do not think she was much more than 16 wh en Betty was born. Also I could never figure out what Betty's maiden na me was. I think she may have used Howell but then I remember John givi ng a name of Betty's father one time. My grandfather York claimed the Howells was a crazy bunch but then every f amily has it's own ""situations"".. John said that Edna had a sister nam ed Dorothy that was in the county home for years. Frances Howell accordi ng to John was always in trouble. I also remember visiting Edna's sist er Irene Doyle in Springfield every Sunday after church. The Doyle work ed at IH as did everyone in Springfield at the time. (Donald Allen DAllen @DCCA.com)

1930 Census, they have 12 foster children

I have an unusal story. I'm looking for information on a C.B. Evilsisor a nd Pearl A. Evilsisor, husband and wife. They would have been living in G reene county, Missouri on a farm that belongs to us. Documents were fak ed when my aunt died, her name was Zella Miller. I have been in contact w ith the probate courts and county clerks office. So far we have not fou nd a will by Zella Miller nor did they find any transfer of real estat e. I'm going on information from a letter by my grandfater. This lett er was responded too by a Jammie U. Page (who was not a representati ve of the county). AS far as the county can tell, there was no transfer a nd the Evilsisor's do not own property in the state of Missouri. My moth er is the only living Miller left. I have been unable to find any other i nformation. If you have any clue or no anything about the ones mentione d, please help. I'm looking for my Aunt Zella's bible which dictates t he provisions on the property. From the story my mom has told me it's like this. Back in th late 1930 's my great aunt Zella and her brother (my grandfather) purchased proper ty in Greene co., Missouri. My mom was sent to live on this farm with t he Evilsisor's, from what she tell's me these people are someone you wa nt your worse enemy to end at. Aunt Zella was working in Colorado as a nu rse when she was told she had terminal cancer.

In 1948 she went back to the Missouri farm to die, about Feb of 48. Now t his is were it get's confusing. My mom says that Zella had a bible that s pelled out that everything was to go to her, which of course didn't happ en because the Evilsisor's got some one to forge a letter, which my grandf ather did not bother to follow up on. The property was co-owned, so how t he Evilsisor's figured they would get the property is beyond me. I've be en in contact with the clerk's office and they concur, they don't have a r ecord of the Evilsisor's either. This happened in April of 1948 that t he property was supposedly signed over, which of course it never was. I 'm trying to track down these people, I believe they would be the one's y ou think you have mentioned. But I can't say for sure yet. I'm goi ng to the area were the farm is suppose to be and check grave yards. The re seems to be no record of my great aunt's burial.

Her brother went thru Missouri back in the late 1980's and actually saw C. B. & Pearl Evilsisor?! Go figure,.. I sometimes would like to strangle he r, she waited so long to give me the papers from her dad's estate, I ev en found insurance policie's that were good and ready to be paid.,, Any h ow., I guess I'm back to square one. My mom's name was Freda Miller ba ck then., and she said that they had only one girl that she knew of an s he thinks she was adopted and there was another little girl there also. M om says they were a couple of years older than her. She was born in 19 34 and was 8 or 9 at that time. She also thinks the Evilsisors were bo rn around the late 1800 or early 1900's, but we are going on a memory th at isn't exactly great. Her Aunt Zella would have been around 68 when s he went back to Missouri to die, and the Evilsisor's were living in her ho me at that time. As for the property, I'll just have to keep digging a nd hope I uncover some clue as to it's exact location, hopefully the coun ty clerk will email back with some good news, but I doubt it. My gut tel ls me that there was something illegal going on and I'll have a hard ti me just finding Zella's gravesite. Thanks for your help, at least I ha ve a couple of more names to either add or remove. If you come across som ething pass it on please and I will do the same, who know's this could tu rn out to be one of those notorious stories of our past.

Well I finally found the probate records on the land in Missouri. The WI LL stated that the property was sold under a contract to CB & Pearl. Fort unately for me they never full filled the contract. The county is tracki ng down other information that has to do with the property.

One thing my mom mentioned was, there was a bible that belonged to her Au nt Rose Zella Miller.

[HI3968] (Research):Muncie, IN Sunday Star dated Nov 18, 1934 (Sec 2, Pg 1) ..."After preparing several letters to relatives and friends and one direc ting disposal of his body to a funeral director, Benjamin Evilsizer,67, co mmitted suicide by shooting himself in the head with a 12-gauge shotgun ea rly yesterday in a local hotel. Evilsizer formerly lived at 723 North Madi son Street but had recently been in Marion seeking employment. He ca me to Muncie Friday night and registered at the hotel and was seen in t he lobby at 2:00 yesterday morning mailing a letter. Another letter fou nd in his room was timed at 3:30 A.M. Guests adjacent to his room did n ot hear the shot and the body was not discovered until about 9:00. His fai lure to secure employment and also the death about a year ago of his wi fe were given as motive. The body was removed to the Meeks Mortuary accord ing to his written directions after police had been called and an investig ation made in co-operation with Coroner C G Plepho. Grave side services wi ll be at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon at the Beech Grove Cemetery. Survi ving are four sons, Max D Evilsiger, Charles H and Daniel, all of Munci e, and Paul A, a member of the Navy Station in Norfolk, VA. The mother, M rs Rachel Hobbs, of Marion, and two half - brothers, Henry and Ernest Hob bs also of Marion. He was a member of the Sons and Daughters of Liberty a nd the Red Mens Lodge.

1900 Census shows a boarder named Henry Gurstner born 8/1855 age 44 IN Death Certificate Cert # 26397 filed in Muncie, IN , Nov 1934 names parent s, birth and death dates.

Additonal note- Recent search of the 1880 Census reveals that Benjamins mo ther is more than likely Rachel Jones Schlosser, being one and the same pe rson. His fathers marriage was to Rachel Schlosser who appeared in the Ce nsus with her father Jesse. A marriage to Rachel Jones was never found. De ath Certificate says mother was Rachel Jones. Since Benjamin does not sh ow in the 1880 census as a child of 3, I believe the cert is in error a nd he was born probably after 1881 marriage. In the 1900 Census, Rachel s ays she had one child, but he was not living. This was obviously an erro r. We also know his obit age was in error. Rachel Jones, born 1860 was fo und in the 1880 Census. The only glitch is that Rachel Jones married A D H obbs two months before Benjamin married Rachel Schlosser. If nothing els e, poor Banjamin was born out of wedlock.

His son Otto shows up in the 1920 Census and living in t he household is Rosina Koch, grandmother, born in Germany. This would le ad us to believe this is really the son of William Conrad. (See later chap ter) William Conrad's family used this spelling for quite some time. The o nly question being the location fits with our family tree in Floyd Co, Ind iana, as the Cass Co immigrant seemed to have stayed in that area. But loc ation of Floyd Co, IN strongly suggests this lineage is correct, as Willi am Conrad and family settled and stayed in Cass Co, IN

My na me is Cora Pruitt and I have been researching my husband's family for abo ut 5 yrs. have been looking for family, (cousins) on the William A. Prui tt line and you are the first! Pleasant Pruitt is my husband's gg-grandfather, and William would be our g g-uncle. I am still researching Pleasant. I have found him up until the 1 880 census for Indiana. I am also looking for Pleasant's father: Archiba ld Pruitt. We have not found a burial location for Archie or Pleasant. We believe that Pleasant may be buried at Maple Lawn with William, (Carroll C o,Ind.) possibly an unmarked grave. My husband's line descends from Pleas ant's youngest son: James Minrow Pruitt b. April 1862, (step) broth er to William A.. I have collected a lot of information on our line and s till have a lot to go..... When I saw your name: Evilsizer, I knew that there was a connection.

[HI4107] (Research):This information is from handwritten notes prepared for John Ebelsheiser 's obituary in July 1909. He was 82 years, 3 months and 15 days old.

"John Ebelsheiser, Sr. was born in Waldeck, Porttenhauser, Germany, Mar ch 18, 1827. He was the son of Jacob Ebelsheiser. When he was seven years of age, his mother died, leaving him, with one half brother and one half sister. At the age of 18 years he left the Fatherland and came to America, ( New York , 4/23/1855 on the "Confederation" )settling in Pennsylvania for one year, then going to Ohio, where he remained for seven years. He then came to Iowa, locating on a farm two miles north of Hedrick. Later he purchased his home, south of Hedrick, where he had been living f or 40 years.

In 1858 he was married to Mrs. Caroline Lowenberg Kling (from Rodenbach, G elheim, Bavaria, Germany) and to them were born nine children. William, Ma rie (Mrs W.G. Lanz), Phoebe (Mrs J.W. Porter), Susan (Mrs. William Stewar t/ step daughter) all of Hedrick, and John, of Kingsley, were present at t he funeral. Two children died in infancy, and two daughters, Carolina a nd Jennie, have also preceded their Father to the better land. Mrs Ebelshe iser died in 1892.

....Mr. Ebelsheiser was one of the pioneers of this part of the country and was well and favorably known by all his fellowmen and neighbors."

[HI4127] (Research):Theory # 1 Ivan Evilsizer claims to have found a Thomas Evilsizer buried in Augusta C o.,VA, but does not have his notes, or backup documentation. This creat es the first theory of the father of Adam, George and William. Died 18 09 age 52.

Theory # 2 There was a Nicholas Evilsizer who served in the Rev War and deserted to t he enemy in Oct 1777. Being a deserter would explain not being found in t he Census. Adam was born around this time, as his first child was born c 1 797.

Theory# 3 On the 1779 Tax List in Berks Co, PA was a John Eisenhammer

All three of this man's children were born in Pennsylvania, migrated to Ro ckingham and Augusta Co.VA, then migrated to Indiana.

Jacob's children who also migrated to Indiana were Sarah & Peter Hartsoo k, Anna Margaret & Elias Huff, and Elizabeth & Reese Allstadt. Joshua al so went to Indiana, but much further north in Morgan Co.

Phillip Engleman could have been born in 1752 in York Co.,VA, baptiz ed in Christ Church,York PA in 1752. He could be the Phillip who was confi rmed in Straus berg, VA. In 1772 Strasburg, Va, 28 Oct, the following we re confirmed, and 29 Oct Dou. 18p Trinitatis were first admitted to Holy C ommunion: 1. Phillip Engelmann 19 years Catharina Englemannin 15 years

From August County History 1865-1950 by Richard K MacMaster- Augusta County Historical Society >p17 "In 1787 Frederick Hangar and Phillip Engleman helped obtain a licen se to celebrate marriages for Adolph Spindler, the first resident Luther an pastor in Augusta County. Hangar and his neighbors had built a log meet ing house in 1785 for the use of Lutherans and Reformed, near the prese nt St. John's United Church of Christ, Middlebrook. The records of this co ngregation began in 1779."

From Chalkey's Chronicles of The Scoth and Irish 1788 (451) Philip Ingleman is appointed guardian of Samuel Laywell and Peter La ywell, orphans of Andrew Laywell deceased. 6/19/1793 (296) Philip Ingleman is appointed guardian to Hannah Laywell, orphan of A ndrew Laywell, deceased. 1/21/1794 (44) John McClintock, orphan of John McClintock, chose Philip Ingleman gua rdian

In 1983, Jewel Engleman Tyler shared with the Society a list of names of E ngleman generations written the 25th of March 1892 by Lewis Engleman .( 1) This account, while not completely accurate, has been a treasure tro ve for those of us researching the Engleman family. Each of the six sons was named with his spouse and many of his children a nd grandchildren. Lewis named the six daughters of Philip and Nancy Anna S illings Engleman, who each daughter married, and stated he would not li st anything more concerning the daughters. In Philip Engleman's will, written in 1825 and probated in 1826, daught er Susanna was mentioned as an heir.(2) Lewis Engleman had listed Susan na as married to a "Mr. Spitten". For many years we could not find a Spitt en family in Indiana. While reviewing the Harrison County probate records of William Englema n, we found that two notes, each for $5.00, were paid to Adam Spitten. O ne was dated September 6, 1822 and the other dated January 12, 1823.(3) Wh ile this information at least ~ve usa complete name, we still could not fi nd an Adam Spitten in Indiana. In July 2000, while in Augusta County, Virginia for a church reunion, we f ound a Spider family. This led to the research of records at the Augusta C ounty courthouse. We found the marriage of Adam Spider to Susanna Englem an April 1, 1805.(4) Philip Engleman and Adam Spider, bachelor, had sign ed the bond. Searching further we found that Adam Spider, the son ofJac ob and Catherina Spittler, was, born October 16, 1778, in Bethel Townshi p, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.( 5) Adam purchased, for $600.00, 196 ac res of land in Augusta Co., Virginia on December 24, 1805.6 He and Susan na sold this land for $750.00 on March 1, 1806.(7) We next find Adam Spid er and family in the 1820 Meade County, Kentucky census.(8) We could not f ind the family in either the 1810 Virginia or Kentucky census. In 1820, bo th Adam and Susanna were listed as between 2&-45, one son under 10, and t wo daughters under 10. By September 24, 1824, we find the family in New Albany, Indiana. Adam pur chased a house on Lower High Street from Isaac Scribner.(9) It appears th at things did not go well for the family as the home was sold, by the sher iff, September 28, 1828. (10) There are other court records concerning b ad debts. The New Albany, Floyd County, Indiana 1830 census listed the family as Ad am and wife being over 45, two sons, 15-20, one son 10-15, two sons und er 5, one daughter 15-20, two daughters, 5-10 (2 adUlts and 8 children) .( II) Later records for Adam and Susanna have not been found. Records are found in Floyd County for Martin,]ohn, Anna E. and Franc es A. Spider. Proof is needed that these are the children of Adam and Susa nna Engleman Spider. By 1850, records in Newton and Jasper counties of Ind iana list Spider names. Are these related? Any information on these famili es will be appreciated.

[HI4202] (Research):This info from German researcher Dr. Arnd Freidrich, Pfr. sent to Sharon D urels 3-28-1984 From Hessisches Staatsarchiv Marburg- Translation- The original entry in the monthly "Notices" (12/8857/ & 67 v0) regarding J akob Ubelshauser reads as follows: "One (commoner) Jacob Ubelshauser, bo rn at Dodenhausen at Haina monestary(cloisters), 29 years old, 6"1" tal l, having served 9 years and 11 months, has entered retirement this very d ay June 21 (of this current year =a.d.)" This does not necessarily mean th at Ubelshauser returned to Hessen, but is merely an indication (he might h ave) The results of checking on files regarding pension payments of surviving w idows after the year 1831 were negative. This is the Jacob that was a Hessian Soldier who returned to Germany

[HI4212] (Research):As theory presents itself, i would presume this is a high possibility th at he is the father to our Johan Jacob Evelsheimer. He would have nam ed a son after himself, probably in 1754-1760 and named one after his fath er, Thomas during the same time period. This would help the theory of o ur Jakob having a brother Thomas who died supposedly in Augusta C o, VA in 1811, age 52

BELA KIMBALL (deceased). The subject of this memoir was born in the year 1 799. He was a son of Andrew and Abigail Kimball, who were among the ear ly settlers in this township, locating in the year 1817. Bela Kimball w as married to Elects Franklin, by whom he had nine children, five of wh om are living, viz., Olive, Harvey, Clarissa, Milo and Estella. The deceas ed are Andrew A., Herman, Fanny and Laura. Mr. K. first located on la nd on the east side of the township, where he lived until 1850, when he er ected a dwelling further west from the first place of residence, in whi ch he lived till his decease. He departed this life Sept. 30, 1878, in h is 80th year. Elects, his wife, departed this life July 19, 1861, ag ed 57 years and 1 month. Mrs. Kimball's parents were born in Vermont, whe re they died when she was quite young. Andrew Kimball died at the a ge of 70 years; Abigail, his wife, in the 89th year of her age.

[HI4289] (Research):It is unknown who the parents are of John. Birth date is highly suspicio us of John Price Sanders (of the Nathaniel Sanders lineage). His middle in itial P was originally thought to be Price. This would indicate John Pri ce Sanders, son of Lewis and Margaret Price Sanders of Kentucky. In the G enealogy of Kentucky Families Vol II says only one son of Lewis and Margar et married. In 1850 Greene Co, AR Census in same area is Moses Sande rs 53 b GA, wife Goola 53 b NC, Walter 18 b NC, Peter 15 n NC, Franc is 13 b AR, Thomas 11 b AR and Sarah 8 b AR. Next door to Moses is David S anders 33 b KY, Mary 38, Francis 6, Sarah 4, Moses 2, all b AR and indicat ing by naming patterns that David is a son of Moses. Ironically next do or to John is a Charles W Price b GA, Mary 36 b TN and children Emily E 1 1, Mitchell 4, Serinda 1 and William W 13. I would think it logical th at Moses would be the father of John Sanders.

There is some speculation that John P Sanders may be John Price Sanders, s ince the birthdays, ages, and middle initial are all strangly conincidenta l. A bio was found of Lewis Sanders and Margaret Price in Franklin c o, KY and it mentions son John P never married. Lewis is a descenda nt of the famous Capt Nathaniel Sanders. (See file at www.gencircles for a ncestry of John Price Sanders)In 1850 Green Co, AR, St Francis Twp was a D avid Sanders 33 b KY, possibly brother. Wife Mary, 38, Children Franc is 6, Sarah 4, Moses,2. Next Door was a Moses age 53 b Geo and wife Goo la 53 b NC. Children Walter, 18, Peter, 15 and Francies 13 b in NC, Thom as 11 and Sarah 8 b AR.

[HI4334] (Research):From:Aphimaria@aol.com I found you via Ancestry WFT. I am Ida's great grandneice. Her sister O ra was my great grandmother. How odd that I found you today and that tod ay I was able to find her death certificate. I am desperately trying to f ind out who Ora & Ida's mother was. Both death certificates say "Unknow n" and the marriages were too old to request that information. Anyway, he re is what I know: Ora's last name when she died was KOCH, and her marital status was divorc ed. I don't know Mr. Koch's first name or when the marriage occurred, b ut I'll find it in the next couple of weeks. She died in Clark County Ind iana on November 12, 1965 at the age of 93. The cause of death was "HC VD w/ decompensation & Pulmonary Edema" (sounds bad but I have no idea wh at the HCVD is. Probably some sort of cardiovascular disease.) The physi cian was Joseph P. Mudd of Clarksville (Clark Co.) Indiana. The funeral w as handled by Kraft Funeral Home of New Albany (Floyd Co.) IN and burial w as in Slate Run Cemetery, also in New Albany. The death was recorded in b ook 1965, page 48. Her date of birth was 3/21/1872 in Indiana. Her usu al residence at the time of her death was New Albany IN with her nephew, E dward Cheap, who was Ora's son. I know that her father's name was George Walts, born about 1844 in Flo yd County IN. I have no idea who her mother was, but I have an idea th at it was Elizabeth J. Lambdin who I suspect died between 1874 and 187 8. I think that her father then married Nancy Ella Stone in 1878. Th is is all speculation at this point, but I intend to find the 1870 & 18 80 Crawford Co. Censuses to settle it.

[HI4338] (Research):My great-aunt had thought that Hiram, Isacc’s son, originally came from De lphi, IN. I don’t know where she got that information but anyway, Hiram e nded up in St. Eele Twp., Daviess Co., IN. He is listed in the 1860 censu s. He married Elizabeth Dillon on Nov. 5, 1854.

Hiram enlisted Sept. 22, 1864 ranked as a Pvt. Claimed residence in Washi ngton, IN. Served Indiana Enlisted D Co.82nd Inf. Regiment. IN. Voluntee rs of Evansville, IN by Captain Hynes. Died at Savannah, GA on Jan. 15, 1 865” We don’t know the cause of his death or where he’s buried. My au nt said that he did die in a hospital.

I looked up January 15, 1865 on the search web and found out that a maj or battle took place that day at Ft. Fisher, NC. There were Indiana troo ps in that battle. So that’s all I know about that so far.

The Civil War Pension Index lists Elizabeth Boyles as his widow and a Min or Andrew J. Boyles. There were actually 3 other children. Laura, Kathe rine, Andrew and Hiram. Elizabeth later married a man with the last na me of Qualls. Andrew told my great-aunt (he was her father) that Elizabe th is buried in Lettsville Cemetary in Daviess Co.

At the time of Elizabeth’s death, Katherine was working in the home of a m an named Nathan Bastian Bruce. Mr. Bruce told Katherine that Andrew cou ld live with them. Just this week I found in the 1880 census that Hira m, Jr. was also living in the Bruce home.

For years she had been unab le to do any housework but has been cheerful throughout her many yea rs of suffering. Each winter she had had an attack of flu and would be co nfined to her bed much of the time but even that did not daunt her good n ature and her ready smile. Although her age was not so advanced in year s, her appearance would lead one to believe that she was quite elderly for the y ears of suffering had not failed to leave their traces. Born December 2 8, 1864 in Knox County, the daughter of David and Mary A. Whiteneck, Ma ry Louella lived most of her life in this vicinity. It was here that s he met and wed Andrew J.Boyles.

John Sellars' parents came the same year and entered an adjo ining piece of land. They brought with them 40 heads of sheep, but it w as not long until the entire flock were killed by the wolves, which at th at early day were very troublesome. They were hard-working people, and h ad soon made for themselves comfortable homes. Jacob Sellars died in 185 0, his loss being deeply felt by his family and numerous friends; his wi fe survives him and is a resident of Cardington Tp. John Sellars passed h is youth and early manhood assisting his father upon the farm; he receiv ed but a limited education, and on the 29th of March, 1849, was unit ed in marriage with Miss Jane Curl, daughter of William Curl, Esq., o ne of the early settlers of Cardington.
