SOURCE: Biography information- http://www.destinationdeadwood.com/ SOURCE: Autobiography of Theodore Roosevelt http://www.bartleby.com/55/ BIOGRAPHY: Seth Bullock: the man behind the legend The following was reprinted with permission from The Bullock Hotel. Seth Bullock was born in 1849 in the little village of Sandwich, Ontario to retired British Major George Bullock and his Scottish wife. Little is known of his boyhood, except that he was frequently at odds with his father’s strict attitudes concerning discipline. Accepting Greeley’s advice to “go West, young man” at face value, Seth arrived inHelena, Montana in 1867 to become a permanent part of the Western scene. He ran for the Territorial Legislature at the early age of 20, but was defeated. However, he was successful in being elected as a Republican member of the Territorial Senate of Montana, serving in the 1871 and 1872 sessions, and during which he introduced a resolution memorializing the Congress of the United States to set aside Yellowstone for all time to come as a great national park. The resolution was adopted by the Legislature and shortly thereafter a bill was introduced in both houses of Congress. Yellowstone Park was established by Federal Statute on March 1, 1872. He is mentioned many times in the Autobiography of Theodore Roosevelt. He and the President were good friends, and Seth was a member of the President's "Tennis Cabinet". In 1873 Bullock was elected Sheriff of Montana Territory in Lewis and Clark Territory. In addition to his other activities, he soon made a mark for himself as an auctioneer and commission merchant in early-day Helena. He entered into a partnership with Sol Star in the hardware business as well as serving as Chief Engineer of the Helena Fire Department. In 1876, Star and Bullock followed the gold rush to Deadwood, South Dakota to open a soon-successful hardware business in the hell-roaring camp, after first sending his bride Martha with their first-born infant daughter back to the security of her Michigan home. Bullock was elected treasurer of the Board of Health and Street Commissioners, organized to combat a threatened smallpox epidemic and which quickly became the first unofficial governmental unit in Deadwood. The death of Wild Bill Hickok in August of 1876 triggered a growing demand for law and order in Deadwood, resulting in Bullock’s appointment as the first Sheriff of Deadwood a few months thereafter. He quickly appointed several able, fearless deputies and before long order had settled upon Deadwood Gulch with little fanfare or gun smoke. With the elimination of the ”roughs” from Deadwood, Bullock devoted his time to ranching and raising thoroughbred horses on the ranch he and his partner established at the confluence of the Belle Fourche River and Redwater Creek, as well as dabbling in mining, politics and promotion while continuing to serve as Deputy United States Marshal. In the spring of 1881, Bullock planted alfalfa on his ranch, which is generally credited as being the introduction of this important crop in the State of South Dakota. Continuing his youthful dedication to conservation, Bullock successfully secured a Federal fish hatchery for the Black Hills area, located near modern-day Spearfish. Bullock became the founder of the town of Belle Fourche (later to become the largest livestock shipping point in the United States and the county seat of Butte County) by persuading the railroad to build through the old site of the DeMore Stage stop on the Bullock-Star Ranch and offering free lots for any building moved from the town of Minnesela to his “new” town. During the Spanish-American War, Bullock volunteered for active service in the Cavalry and was named a Captain of Troop A in Grigsby’s Cowboy Regiment. The outfit never saw combat, but did sustain quite a few casualties from typhoid which was rampant in the Louisiana training camp where they impatiently sat out the short war. During the ‘90s, Bullock continued to maintain a close contact with Teddy Roosevelt. This close personal friendship between the Bullock and Roosevelt families had begun years prior when the two men shared coffee and beans over the tailgate of a chuckwagon on the rangelands near Belle Fourche. Roosevelt, the newly-elected Vice President under President McKinley, appointed Bullock as the first Forest Supervisor of the Black Hills Reservoir. In 1905 President Teddy Roosevelt appointed Seth Bullock as United States Marshal for South Dakota. Seth was reappointed in 1909 by President Taft and continued in office for one year under President Woodrow Wilson. Roosevelt’s death in January, 1919 was a fearful blow to Captain Bullock who was in a weak, emaciated condition himself. By mid-February, however, Bullock was busily engaged in his last act of devotion to his beloved friend, enlisting the aid of the Society of Black Hills Pioneers to erect a monument to Roosevelt on Sheep Mountain. The peak was renamed Mt. Roosevelt and on its crest Bullock and his fellow pioneers erected a tower constructed of native Black Hills stone. This, the first memorial to Theodore Roosevelt in the United States, was dedicated July 4, 1919. Trail’s end came for Captain Seth Bullock two months later in September, 1919 at the age of 70. Comments about Seth Bullock by President Theodore Roosevelt: It was while with Bill Jones that I first made acquaintance with Seth Bullock. Seth was at that time sheriff in the Black Hills district, and a man he had wanted—a horse thief—I finally got, I being at the time deputy sheriff two or three hundred miles to the north. The man went by a nickname which I will call "Crazy Steve"; a year or two afterwards I received a letter asking about him from his uncle, a thoroughly respectable man in a Western State; and later this uncle and I met at Washington when I was President and he a United States Senator. It was some time after "Steve's" capture that I went down to Deadwood on business, Sylvane Ferris and I on horseback, while Bill Jones drove the wagon. At a little town, Spearfish, I think, after crossing the last eighty or ninety miles of gumbo prairie, we met Seth Bullock. We had had rather a rough trip, and had lain out for a fortnight, so I suppose we looked somewhat unkempt. Seth received us with rather distant courtesy at first, but unbent when he found out who we were, remarking, "You see, by your looks I thought you were some kind of a tin-horn gambling outfit, and that I might have to keep an eye on you!" He then inquired after the capture of "Steve"—with a little of the air of one sportsman when another has shot a quail that either might have claimed—"My bird, I believe?" Later Seth Bullock became, and has ever since remained, one of my stanchest and most valued friends. He served as Marshal for South Dakota under me as President. When, after the close of my term, I went to Africa, on getting back to Europe I cabled Seth Bullock to bring over Mrs. Bullock and meet me in London, which he did; by that time I felt that I just had to meet my own people, who spoke my neighborhood dialect. " While in the White House I always tried to get a couple of hours' exercise in the afternoons—sometimes tennis, more often riding, or else a rough cross-country walk, perhaps down Rock Creek, which was then as wild as a stream in the White Mountains, or on the Virginia side along the Potomac. My companions at tennis or on these rides and walks we gradually grew to style the Tennis Cabinet; and then we extended the term to take in many of my old-time Western friends such as Ben Daniels, Seth Bullock, Luther Kelly, and others who had taken part with me in more serious outdoor adventures than walking and riding for pleasure."... ..." On March 1, 1909, three days before leaving the Presidency, various members of the Tennis Cabinet lunched with me at the White House. "Tennis Cabinet" was an elastic term, and of course many who ought to have been at the lunch were, for one reason or another, away from Washington; but, to make up for this, a goodly number of out-of-town honorary members, so to speak, were present—for instance, Seth Bullock; Luther Kelly, better known as Yellowstone Kelly in the days when he was an army scout against the Sioux; and Abernathy, the wolf-hunter. At the end of the lunch Seth Bullock suddenly reached forward, swept aside a mass of flowers which made a centerpiece on the table, and revealed a bronze cougar by Proctor, which was a parting gift to me. The lunch party and the cougar were then photographed on the lawn." At one of the regimental reunions a man, who had been an excellent soldier, in greeting me mentioned how glad he was that the judge had let him out in time to get to the reunion. I asked what was the matter, and he replied with some surprise: "Why, Colonel, don't you know I had a difficulty with a gentleman, and ... er ... well, I killed the gentleman. But you can see that the judge thought it was all right or he wouldn't have let me go." Waiving the latter point, I said: "How did it happen? How did you do it?" Misinterpreting my question as showing an interest only in the technique of the performance, the ex-puncher replied: "With a .38 on a .45 frame, Colonel." I chuckled over the answer, and it became proverbial with my family and some of my friends, including Seth Bullock. When I was shot at Milwaukee, Seth Bullock wired an inquiry to which I responded that it was all right, that the weapon was merely "a .38 on a .45 frame." The telegram in some way became public, and puzzled outsiders. By the way, both the men of my regiment and the friends I had made in the old days in the West were themselves a little puzzled at the interest shown in my making my speech after being shot. This was what they expected, what they accepted as the right thing for a man to do under the circumstances, a thing the non-performance of which would have been discreditable rather than the performance being creditable. They would not have expected a man to leave a battle, for instance, because of being wounded in such fashion; and they saw no reason why he should abandon a less important and less risky duty.

Jeff On Thu, 28 Sep 2000 07:35:55 -0700 josie bass <jbass@digital.net> writes Brigadier-General David Bullock Harris, a distinguished military engineer, was born at Fredericks Hall, Louisa county, Va., September 28, 1814. He was graduated at the United States military academy in 1833, with promotion to brevet second lieutenant of First artillery, and a year later was called to the position of assistant professor of engineering at West Point. On August 31, 1835, he resigned from the army and entered the profession of civil engineering, for some time being employed on the James river and Kanawha canal. Subsequently he became a planter and exporter of tobacco and flour. Early in 1861 he was commissioned captain of engineers of the Virginia forces, and was assigned to the staff of General Beauregard, with whom he was associated from that time until the end of the war. He was the first to reconnoiter the line at Bull run, planned and constructed the works for the defense of Manassas Junction, and in the heat of the fight of July 21st, at the critical moment when Elzey led his brigade upon the field, he guided that officer into position. He accompanied Beauregard to the Mississippi valley, and after inspecting the defenses at Columbus, Ky., was entrusted with the construction of works at Island No. 10 and vicinity, to which the artillery was removed from the Columbus fortifications. After the fall of New Orleans he located and constructed fortifications for heavy guns at Vicksburg, and thence he went with Beauregard in 1863 to Charleston, S.C. Of his work here, Beauregard wrote, "My best and almost only assistant for planning the construction of batteries and making the selection of sites on which they were to be erected was Maj. D. B. Harris, the chief engineer of the department, on whom I placed the utmost reliance, and who always thoroughly understood and entered into my views." Early in May, General Beauregard was at Petersburg, in command of the department of North Carolina and Southern Virginia, and here Harris, now promoted colonel, found immediate field for work at Drewry's bluff, where his services and advice contributed greatly to the successful defense of the Confederate lines. He continued on duty in the defense of Petersburg, with promotion to the rank of brigadier-general, until his death, October 10, 1864.

Could there be a connection with the William Bullock of Bermuda whose son Stephen was also a sea captain who sailed between Charleston and Bermuda. William married Patience Paynter in Bermuda. They had connections with the Quakers. Son Stephen married a Spanish lady named Marie--?-- and their daughter, Mary Margaret (about 1700) married Rene de St Julien, a French Huguenot soldier who fled France for Holland and then to England to Bermuda to Charleston, then Maryland and NC. I have no knowledge of Mary Margaret's siblings having come to the USA-to-be---so???----ila41430@aol.com

Mr. Parker, I'm' seeking information on a Matilda Ann Williams, that was born in Shelby County, Alabama in 1861. Matilda married a John B. Wells in Danville, AR. in 1881 and his mother was Mary E. Bullock from Tenn. If you run across this family I would greatly appreciate anything you could pass on to me. It has been very frustrating trying to connect my grandparents and where their family came from. Thanks again, Patricia Annoot

Ludovic Grant married (2) Unknown Cherokee woman if the Wolf Clan circa 1726 . She was born circa 1700 ( source Emmet Starr,305,466,561,563 ) Notes for Ludovic Grant: On page 466, Starr states that Ludovic Grant married a woman of the Long Hair Clan; However, on page 561 and 563 it states that he married a member if the Wolf Clan . (Two wifes, or a typo?) The name Eughiootie was found in the booklet called Cherokee Blood Newsletter-Spring 1983-Vol.1 Her "white mans" name was elizabeth Coody (This name is found in Geneaology of Old & New Cherokee indian family by George Morrison bell. SR.) Elizabeth was the daughter of KAN-YAN-TEE-HEE the son of Corn Tassel Born circa 1670 at Chota City Of Refuge. She also had a brother named Chief Old Tassel who was killed under a flag of truce in 1788 and was noted for an eloquent speech he gave at Long Island. Ludovic was the Clan Chief of the Grant holdings in Scotland ( Note: There is controversy as to his being Clan Chief at such a Young age; around 18 years old. There is also controversy as to The line, Some believe he was son of Ludovic not John.) After losing the war in the Jacobite Rebellion ludovic was captured by the British at Preston and banished to the " New World" . Ludovic arrived in the Carolinas and moved in with the Cherokee. His cousins all went to Boston and The Caribbian area. Sir Alexander Cuming, in his brief Journal which appeared in the Historical Register of London for 1731, described his adventures in the Cherokee nation in 1730 when, with the aid of Ludovic grant, he convinced seven young Cherokees ( Including future Chief , ATTAKULLAKULLA, the "Little Carpenter" ) to visit England and King George II. This was an attempt by the King to recruit the Cherokee to fight the French. In a statement recorded on page 301 of the Charleston ,South Carolina probate Court in the book of "1754-1758" in a sworn statement of january 12, 1756 says, "It is about thirty years since I went into the Cherokee Country where I have resided ever since" "I speak their language".
