| 169 | Added Beulah's surving daughter's husband, William Leo Lipford 2 15 16. On Friday, Feb 12, 2016 I presented her with a binder dedicated to the memory of our shared relative, "Lost" Lawson Stills. Lawson and Amanda Rosanna Gray Stills are my 2 gg parents. Lawson and his second wife Odie Ridley are her gg parents. Father R.C. Stills, son Virgil, R.C. Stills. A surviving child of Lawson and Odie born in 1929 she is still an active lady having been to her homemaker's club that day. She says she also plays 'bingo' at nearby Pennyrile State Park weekly with her friends. A resident of Dawson Springs, she and husband lived in various places around the country through her husband's career in the US. Navy. I shared a copy of a letter that her Mother Beulah Thomas Stills wrote to Scarlett McDonald (well-know author of many genealogy texts). Beulah was seeking help from Ms. McDonald in her search for who Lawson Stills' parents were. I will look for a way to attach the transcribed letter. It was easy to give her a record of her family since the Fred Family History had already tracked it right up to Anna Lee. She is the living child. I received quite a gift too!when she shared her mother's Thomas family history and to my surprise we share a common ancestor William Isaih "Zeke" and Emeline Bates Thomas are my 2 ggparents on my Mother's Thomas/Dearing Line and they were also Beulah Thomas Still's parents. Small world she and I are related on both her families' pedigrees. Ginnie Oldham | Thomas, Beulah (I9692)

They were used largely for guard duty and in garrisoning necessary points, relieving veteran troops for active field work in the important campaigns of 1864. These troops were to perform such duty as might be required of them in any state, and were to be armed, subsisted, clothed and paid by the United States. Upon reaching Nashville they were assigned to railroad guard duty along the lines of the Nashville & Chattanooga, Tennessee & Alabama, and Memphis & Charleston railroads.

| 183 | Article in Indianapolis Star Newpaper, Oct 25, 1909 SEES KIN: READY TO DIE AGED WOMAN CALLS REUNION Mrs. Large, Pioneer of City, who fears she may expire during winter, relates settler stories at family gathering. A birthday anniversary gathering was held yesterday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. I.N. Medsker, 1415 Montecalm St. in honor of Mrs. Eliza Anna Large, who is 87 years old today. More than fifty relatives were present and partook of the family reunion diner and had their pictures taken in a group with Mrs. Large in the center. Nineteen grandchildren and eighteen great-grandchildren were present. Mrs. Large has been in poor health during the last two years, and it was at her request that all her relatives in Indiana gathered at the home of her daugh- ter yesterday. She said that she wanted to see them all together, fearing that she may not live through the winter. "Children, I am ready to die now, since I have seen you all and know you are all well and happy, as soon as the Lord wants to call me", she told the relatives and then asked to be excused from the merrymaking circle and retired early in the afternoon. The six living children, out of a family of twelve, who were present yesterday, are Mrs. Frank Jackson of Greensburg, IND., and the others from this city are Mrs. I.N. Medsker, Mrs. William Rosemeyer, Mrs. David McCoy, H.D. Richardson and John Large. Tells Settler Stories Stories of the early days, the settler days, when Indianapolis was a small country town, surrounded by woods filled with wild game and Indians, were told during the day by the great-grandmother to here many descendants. Mrs. Large is the only member of her family, save here own children. Her husband Michael Large, died three years ago. She has lived in this city ever since she was 5 years old, and said she remembered distinctly of coming here in a covered wagon from her home in Fairmont County, Ohio. She said she came through Cincinnati entering Indianapolis by the Michigan road. For twenty-five years she lived on Washington street, then known as Main Street. She said most of the bouses were built of logs, and while Indians did not bother the inhabitants of the town much, they were numerous and a contant dread was entertained. She told stories in her weak and hesitating voice of how she had joined the Strange Chapel, a Methodist Church, one of the first to be founded here, when she was a young girl: how the preacher rode a hourse and how the congreations shouted and "carried on" in revival meeting times. She said it was not un- common for men to go to church with a gun over their sholders. The chapel, she said, was some place on Senate avenue, then known as Mississippi street. The Court House was made of logs and stood on Main street, near Pogue's Run. The first train that passed through here, a J.M. I., she said she saw, and that all the cars were flat and were not covered. When the Court House was built there were but three churches and five stores. Two sons enlisted in the civil war, the surviving one being H.D. Richardson. Mrs. Large is a devoted Christian. Her eyesight is so poor that she asks different members of the family to read from the Bible to her every day. She had her picture taken yesterday with a Bible in her lap. 1900 Census: Center Twp, Marion Co., Indiana McCoy, David, Head, w, m, May 1843, m, 32, -, -, Indiana, Unknown, Unknown McCoy, May E., Wife, w, f, Dec 1858, m, 32, 3, 1, Indiana, Ohio, Ohio Large, Eliza A., MotherInLaw,w, f, Oct 1822, Wd, -, 12, 7, Ohio, Kentucky, Ohio Morris, Dosea J., Niece, w, f, Jan 1871, Wd, -,1,1, Indiana, Indiana, Indiana Morris, Bert L., Nephew, w, m, Feb 1890, s, -, -, -, Indiana, Indiana, Indiana 1910 Census, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana Medsker, Isaac N., Head,m,w,53,m,32,-,-,Indiana, Indiana, Indiana Medsker, Emma E., Wife,f,w,52,m,32,0,0,Indiana, Ohio, Ohio Large, Eliza , MotherInLaw,f,w,87,Wd,-,12,6,Ohio, Ohio, Ohio | Day, Elizabeth Ann (I0060)

| 189 | Bob worked for IBM after he left the service. He had been working ata radio repair shop and on the recommendation of one of his customers,Red Johnson, he was hired at IBM. The Watsons, old Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Watson, had a custom of anannual family dinner in each region; a family member or corporateofficer would attend. When Bob was stationed in No. Platte, thedinner was to be held in Lincoln. He and Evelyn were scheduled toattend, but the day before the dinner, their young son Jim developedchicken pox. Evelyn sent her regrets and Bob attended the dinneralone. He had taken their son Joe along, leaving him with the Feldmangrandparents in Giltner. When the Watsons found that Evelyn couldn'tcome, they made plans for a private dinner with Bob and Evelyn inNorth Platte! They were on a cross-country auto trip (complete withphotographer and driver). So on the trip west, Mrs. Watson rode withthe driver, and T. J. Watson Sr. drove with Bob. They picked up Joein Giltner and continued west, with a stop in Kearney for Joe to ridethe automated "bucking bronco" (there is a photo documenting this).That evening, the four adults dined in high style at a hotel in NorthPlatte; this is also documented by a glossy photo of the bunch in thelobby of the hotel. The year would have been about 1952-53. | Feldman, Robert Paul (I101418)

| 193 | BOYD, John Franklin b: Mar 19 1860, St. Clair Co, MO d: Mar 18 1933, NE of Brownington, Henry Co, MO bur: Bethlehem Cemetery, Bethlehem Twp, Henry Co, MO Clinton MO - The spirit of Judge J. F. Boyd has returned to its Maker, as he passed into Eternity at 7:30 p.m., Saturday, March 18th. The previous Monday he was stricken with paralysis and two more strokes came Thursday and he died at his home 2 1/2 miles north and east of Brownington. John Franklin Boyd, the son of John and Elizabeth Lawler Boyd, was born March 19, 1860, in St. Clair County, Mo. His mother was left a widow when he was about nine years old and he became her prop and mainstay. February 16, 1879, he was married to Miss Landona Wears, who preceded him to the Heavenly Home, March 12, 1927. To this union were born eight children - four sons and four daughters, all of whom are left to mourn a loving father. The sons are: G. M. Boyd, of Centralia, Mo.; William, Pullman, Wash.; Lee, Clinton, and Clifton, Maysville, Mo. The daughters are: Mrs. Myrtle Pogue, Mrs. Mary Wycoff, Mrs. Grace Dody, Brownington, and Miss Ola of the home. There are 26 grandchildren and one great grandchild; one brother, J. R. Boyd, Denver, Colo.; one sister, Mrs. Drusilla Hoops, Ipswich, South Dakota; and Mr. Boyd was a half brother of the late Rev. W. S. Weir. In 1885, the deceased was converted and united with Bethlehem Baptist church and for 48 years has given true hearted, loyal service to his Master thru this church. He was ordained to the deaconship of the church in 1915. In 1910 he was elected judge of the South District of Henry County, and was re-elected. In 1914 he was elected presiding judge of the county court, and served his county for two terms. He was a man who never stinted his work for others. Most men quit paying a poll tax when they reach the age limit, but Judge Boyd never considered himself too old to give his services wherever they were needed, and each year donated work to build better roads. He served as school director of his district for many years and was always interested in education. He was a great reader and kept up with the progress of his country. He had lived in the Bethlehem neighborhood 49 years. Funeral services were conducted Tuesday morning at the Bethlehem church, and his body was laid to rest in the nearby cemetery. | Boyd, John Franklin (I108401)

| 194 | BOYD, John Franklin Judge Brownington, Osage Township 1917 Missouri The Center State, selected bios reprinted by Clinton Democrat John F. Boyd, associate judge of Henry County, engaged in general farming and stock raising near Brownington, Henry County, was born in St. Clair County, Missouri, March 19 1860, a son of John N. and Elizabeth G. (Lawler) Boyd, the former a native of North Carolina and the latter of Tennessee. In early life the father worked at the carpenter's trade and afterward followed the occupation of farming. When a young man he left North Carolina, going to Tennessee, and from that state made his way to Missouri about 1854, settling in St. Clair County, where he became a landowner. During the war he removed to Bates County, where he lived for a short time and there died. The mother afterward came to Henry County with the family, settling near Coal, and her death occurred in August 1910. She had long survived the husband and father, who had passed away in 1867. Judge Boyd, whose name introduces this review, attended the public schools of Henry County. His mother was left a widow when he was but a small boy and the responsibility of managing family affairs largely devolved upon him. He has earned his own way since childhood and is truly a self-made man, being dependent always upon his own resources. He was employed as a farm hand in his youth, working for others until he saved enough money to buy a team. He then engaged in farming on his own account on rented land and continued to cultivate leased property until about 1899, when he became a landowner, locating where he now resides, about two and a half miles from Brownington. He now has more than three hundred acres and carries on general farming and stock raising, handling horses, cattle and mules. He devotes his entire time to the farm aside from his official duties. Persistent and energetic, he deserves much credit for what he has accomplished, inasmuch as industry, determination and honest constitue the basis of his success. On the 16th of February, 1879, John F. Boyd was united in marriage to Miss Landona Wears, a native of Henry County and a daughter of George and Mattie (Emery) Wears, also natives of this state. The father was a farmer by occupation and was killed in battle while serving as a soldier in the Confederate Army. To Mr. and Mrs. Boyd have been born eight children: George Milton, at home; Myrtle Anna, the wife of George W. Poague, a farmer residing near her father's place; Mary E., the wife of Ira Wycoff, a farmer of South Dakota; William Merrill, a farmer living in the state of Washington; John Lee, who follows agricultural pursuits in Henry County; Ola Alice, at home; Clifton F., who carries on farming in this county; and Grace Truman, the wife of Christopher Dody, also a resident farmer of Henry County. Mr. Boyd holds membership with the Woodmen of the world and the Modern Woodmen of America, and his religious faith is indicated by his membership in the Baptist Church. In politics he is a Democrat, and his fellow townsmen, appreciative of his worth and ability, have several times called him to public office. He servied as justice of the peace and township commissioner, was a member of the township board and at the present writing is associate judge of the county court. His public duties have ever been discharged with promptness and fidelity, winning him the respect and confidence of the entire community. (Note: Della Maye Boyd Fowler of Windsor, has a copy of the divorce degree that John N. Boyd got in March 8, 1871, proving that he did not die in 1867. He was living in Bates County, but information on a death date or place has not been found.) | Boyd, John Franklin (I108401)

Ill health forced him to quit farming over three years ago and he has since made his home with a son, Johnny Lee, of near Clinton. Although an invalid for the past 16 months, he was resigned to his condition and strove to be as little trouble as possible to those about him. It can truly be said of Lee Boyd "He lived in a house by the side of the road and was a friend to man." He was always loyal and a man of firm convictions, believing in the right as he saw it and not afraid to disagree. Although he did not unite with any church, he believed in Christ. Funeral services were conducted at the Bethlehem Baptist Church Monday afternoon. His body was tenderly laid to rest in the Maplewood Cemetery at Brownington by the side of his wife. | Boyd, Johnny Lee (I108406)

| 196 | BOYD, Landona WEARS b: Nov 29 1858, Henry Co, MO d: Mar 12 1927, Henry Co, MO bur: Mar 13 1927 Bethlehem Cemetery, Bethlehem Twp, Henry Co, MO Clinton MO - Ladonia Wears was the daughter of George and Martha Wears. She was born November 29, 1858, in Henry county, where she grew to womanhood and was married to J. F. Boyd, Febr. 16th, 1879. To this union eight children were given - four girls and four boys - all of whom are living, and who, with the father, mourn their great loss. The children are: George Milton, Mrs. Myrtle Pogue, John Lee, Ola Alice and Mrs. Chris Dody, all of whom live near the old home; Mrs. Ira Wycoff, Stamford, Nebr.; Wm. M., of Pullman, Wash., and Clifton F., of Maysville, Mo. There are 23 grandchildren, and also leaves one brother, J. F. Wears, of Louisiana; one half brother, Sandy Johnson, of California, and one uncle, J. T. Wears, of Lowry City. She was converted about 55 years ago, uniting with the Tebo Baptist church; later moving her membership to Bethlehem church, where she was an interested member until her home going, March 12, 1927, of flu and pneumonia, being 68 years, 3 months and 13 days old. Hers had been a busy life. She was like Martha of old - her hospitable home was open to all. Her good heart and willing hands made every visit in that home one to be remembered. She loved company. Her home was always a home for ministers, and many have rested there. She loved her children and grandchildren, and always wanted them near her. It can truly be said she spent her life for others. Everything that physicians and loved ones could do was done for her, but after three days of intense suffering, she found that quiet rest she begged for, as her last words were, "rest, rest, rest." Funeral services were conducted at Bethlehem church on Sunday. Interment in Bethlehem cemetery. | Wears, Landona (I108398)
