Hi Listers; I found this story in my files and decided to repost it here. I hope you enjoy it. Cousin Karen in Pa. MEMORIES OF SOUTH DAKOTA 1868 Written by Emma Allen Hendershott Robinson 1939 I have been wondering if the story, of my chilhood days, would be interesting to the young people of these times. When I think back over the hardships we went through, I wonder how our parents kept up their courage and faith in God's goodness. I think faith and hope is what kept up their strength to go on and overcome the hard part. My parents came to Dak when I was about seven years old. I am now 73. What they went through the first winter and the first summer, only they could tell and they are gone. My Mother lived to knit socks for the World War soldiers. She was very proud and happy over it. That first winter in those days was something to remember. Living in a little log cabin, only one room, a little No. 7 cook stove to cook on and to warm the room. Five miles from any store; plenty of wood that winter, but hard to get. My father must have suffered, coming from the woods in New York State. And what my poor Mother went through with Indians every place. The Indians camped along the river. She had always lived where she had plenty and nothing to fear. She lived in fear of those Indians and gave them nearly anything they asked for. This often left us short on provisions. And the timber wolve howled at night. The blizzards. The worry of it all must have been awful. We had no school that first winter, but the summer was hard.. I remember the stings of the mosquitoes and fleas and at night the mosquitoes made life miserable. Mother would cover us with mosquito netting, but they got in and the stings were terrible to us. I can remember how the cattle fought them all night.. The only relief came from a smudge fire of leaves and chips. The smoke was as hard to take nearly as the mosquitoes. Well we lived through it all, to see a great many more winters and summers. The first summer my father planted potatoes. He had a large crop but lost them in the first cold hard freeze. He had dug a deep hole and covered them with straw and dirt but the freeze got to them. 74 bushels, you can imagine what a loss. But there were other vegetables, and plenty of wheat and oats. The wheat was traded for flour, so we got through that second winter. There was school; in a little log school house. Home made benches to sit on. Only about a mile from home. But even at that, w nearly lost our lives, as we got caught in a blizzard one day. It came suddenly, like a dry white wall, and the roar of the storm was terrific. We were dismissed at once and started home. As luck would have it, we had two large [German] boys that went our way. They were neighbors. They made us all hold hands and kept us going. Wind in our faces--oh, it was hard. I begged them to stop and rest for a minute, only they kept us going and got us safely home. But our clothing was wet from the fine drifting snow and frozen stiff. Imagine our Mother's fright. She hustled our frozen clothes off and in bed we were put, tho it was early afternoon. We were so glad to get in a warm feather bed and warm milk to drink. We were so tired and cold. We were all well as usual the next day. The blizzard lasted three days. My father worked so hard to save our stock and did save them. Some were not so lucky, a good many were frozen as the storm was unexpected so early in the season. I must tell of another blizzard, I think I was eight years old, that froze cattle and horses and people all over the country. My father was caring for sixty head of cattle that had been brought from Old Mexico by a man that made a business of buying an fattening cattle , for feed was plentiful. They were corralled in a strong corral of logs. It was seven logs high. A blizzard came unexpected and froze them to death. Poor things, it was an awful sight. They were in all shapes, some standing on their hind feet, front feet up on the fence as they had tried to climb it. Some were bunched up. The poor man that owned them had to hire a man to dig a big hole or trench to bury them. After that storm, my father and the men went around and dug horses and cattle out from under the drifts, and usually where they were drifted under, they were alive but very weak. In those days places wer not fenced as they are now. Well, we got to know those blizzards were coming. Always a lovely morning, warm like a spring morning, but before noon it would come.. The roar could be heard for miles and the cold and fine snow. My Mother used to say it would go through an inch board for it would drift in where a wall seemed tight. I must tell a little incident about my cousin, and we always thought it a good joke on him. He was coming home from school one winter day when he saw a wolf coming across the prarie right towards him. He was terrible freightened so he uncovered his lunch pail and set it down. He said he thought while the wolf was eating what he left in th pail, he could get away. He had come that fall from New York State and did not know that he was not in danger for the cattle were plentiful and the wild animals were not hungry. There were a great many timber wolves in those days, but we never thought they were dangerous. My cousin is living in New York State now; he is ederly like myself and has a family. He can tell a good many exciting things about those days. When we children were small, my father bought an indian pony for us to ride. A beautiful little black pony and gentle. We all loved him. We called him "Nig". I remember one terrible storm, my father found him chilled, shaking with cold in the morning when he went out to fed he stock. He covered him with a blanket but he stll shook. We had a large log kitchen that winter, so he brought him in the kitchen and tied him to one corner with plenty of straw on the floor untill the storm was over. He was stabled with the other stock but the cold was awful those terrible three days. Blizzards, I often wonder how we lived though it all. My father died at the age of 51. I think perhaps the hardships of those days, shortened his life. These are only a few of the troubles and hardships we had in those first hard winters, but we enjoyed life. There are a lot of pleasant things to remember. At school we had spelling matches, little parties and sometimes little dances in our home. And we had singing at home. My Mother played the little malodian and we all sang. My father sang bass. The Sunday afternoons were very pleasant, and my father always read the Bible. I think those happy hours on Sunday gave them strength and patience to go on with the hard parts. The summers were beautiful, tho we had to fight insects, we enjoyed life. We had boat riding on the Jame River and swimming and fishing from early April untill the river froze over in the winter, if we cared for them. The fish were delicious and sometimes they caught a 50 to 60 pound catfish. We never ate the large ones. The meat was course and not so sweet and good. There were many kind of fish, but to this day I remember how the catfish was the sweetest and best to our notion. I shall never forget getting out of bed, slipping down to the river-quiet- so as not to freighten the fish away. Slip in under the willows with a big grub worm for bait and then just sit down and listen to the fish drum under the boat. The birds you can never imagine the birds. They made the sweetest music I have ever heard. Then the fish began to bite and we were kept busy untill we had enough for a meal. Then home to breakfast. Then plenty of work after. Milking, feeding the calves and the chickens, drive the cows out to feed. Sometimes we herded them to keep them away from the fields riding our dear little black pony that lived one day and one night in the corner of our kitchen. There were no boys in our family then. My brother was three years old so he never enjoyed our fathers loving car as we girls did. We children are scattered now. One lives in Omaha, Nebraska; one in Yankton, South Dakota. My brother and his large family in Fremont, Illinois. I'm in Globe, Arizona. We have all run a lot of trouble and a lot of happiness and none of us would lose the memories of our childhood days. Well, I could go on and on but I hope this will be enjoyed by someone. Will sign Myself Mother Robinson

As far as I know there is no proof of who Jacob B-1783,Mar 31 married. His son Jacob who married Rebecca Jane Warford was, I believe grandson of Jacob; & Grandson of John B-1720 in Millstone, Somerset County New Jersey. The Jacob who married Mary Louise Stevens was son of Jacob & Grandson of Michael B-1812, also born in Millstone, Somerset County New Jersey. This family lived & died and are buried in Newton New Jersey. This mistake goes back to "CHAMBERS Early Germans of New Jersey" page 402 where he lists Jacob B-1747, died July 7, 1815, and who married Effie Paugh B-1750,D-May 21, 1824. As son of JOHANNES B-Jan 23.1720. The children listed as "I", "!!" are correctly listed as children of JOHANNES B-1720. "III" JACOB B-1747 who married Effy Paugh and all the children listed from "1" through "8" and their children are all descendants of MICHAEL & ELIZABETH SCHERMERHORN, who died in 1787 in Newton; naming all his children except his oldest son Michael (B-1734 Germantown NJ, & never heard from again.) Just about all of these families lived & died and are buried in Sussex County New Jersey, & is very well documented by their wills. Also; all the children listed "IV"(Isaac, and his children are correct) "V", "VI", "VII", "VIII", "IX", "X", "XI" are correctly listed as children of JOHANNES. JACOB who married Effy Paugh left a very detailed will naming all his children. PETER, who married SOPHIA ELIZABETH LENTZ(LANCE) left a very detailed will, naming numerous nephews & nieces and others, but not any children. It is very unlikely that he had any children. There are several cases that I know of who claim to descend from Peter & Sophia, through the DAR; but this is I believe, an error.

Hendershot (Mar 17, 1808 - Jan 17, 1891) married Rebecca Jane Crawford (Nov 28, 1814 - Jul 20, 1897). They're both buried at the Hendershot Cemetary in Buck Valley. The headstones are worn and broken but the names and dates are still readable. I have some digital pictures but they're pretty low res. His dates may be different than what you have but I believe I sent out a batch of corrections after I visited the area last summer. His parents were Jacob H. Hendershot (1783 - Mar 31, 1856) and Mary Louise Stevens (1784 - bef 1830). Couldn't find any markers for them in any of the 4 local cemetaries. Jacob H's father was Jacob Hendershot (July 6, 1747 - Feb 14, 1828). Don't know who this Jacob's wife was. Again, no markers were found for them. Well, that's the line of Jacobs. Hope it helps out. As for the Crawford branch, the 1850 census has a Christina Crawford (1833 - ?) while the 1860 census has a John Crawford (1826 - ?) living with Jacob & Rebecca. Am assuming that they would be Rebecca's sister and brother but never saw them listed as siblings elsewhere. He was listed as 'idiotic' which certainly wasn't very pc of 'em.

There's just far too many Jacob's to keep track of down these various lines...didn't show much imagination back then, eh. Anyway, I defaulted back to the Hendershot database for part of my answer. I can individually prove my line back to Jacob (1808-1891) and Rebecca (1814-1897). Census records on the other side of 1850 aren't too helpful as they only list the head of household. Am fairly confident that Rebecca's maiden name was indeed Crawford vice Warford. This surname was present in the area and a few Crawford's show up as living with them in the 1850 & 1860 census records. Additionally, in the 1850 census, there is a Jacob living with them and he is listed as being 75 at the time. This would place this Jacob's year of birth as 1775 which I guess should've immediately called into question what I said earlier. This Jacob would have to be the one that shows up in the 1820 & 1830 census...but like I said, only his name is listed. Well, that's all I have for actual proof. It sounds like there may have been some sort of name mixing between clans 'B' and 'C' going on. I recognize Effy Paugh's name from a genforum query where she was going in the wrong place so this isn't the first time I've run across this problem either. I'll make a notation as to your concern in my records but would be interested if anyone else could clarify the situation. Jeff Frank7452@aol.com wrote: > Dear Jeff; I read this message in ROOTSWEB.

Kay & whoever else may care about this answer, Jacob S. Hendershot (Mar 17, 1808 - Jan 17, 1891) married Rebecca Jane Crawford (Nov 28, 1814 - Jul 20, 1897). They're both buried at the Hendershot Cemetary in Buck Valley. The headstones are worn and broken but the names and dates are still readable. I have some digital pictures but they're pretty low res. His dates may be different than what you have but I believe I sent out a batch of corrections after I visited the area last summer. His parents were Jacob H. Hendershot (1783 - Mar 31, 1856) and Mary Louise Stevens (1784 - bef 1830). Couldn't find any markers for them in any of the 4 local cemetaries. Jacob H's father was Jacob Hendershot (July 6, 1747 - Feb 14, 1828). Don't know who this Jacob's wife was. Again, no markers were found for them. Well, that's the line of Jacobs. Hope it helps out. As for the Crawford branch, the 1850 census has a Christina Crawford (1833 - ?) while the 1860 census has a John Crawford (1826 - ?) living with Jacob & Rebecca. Am assuming that they would be Rebecca's sister and brother but never saw them listed as siblings elsewhere. He was listed as 'idiotic' which certainly wasn't very pc of 'em.

Hello Hendershot Cousins! I wonder if any of you can help me find out more information on Jacob H. Hendershot's ancestors? He was married to Rebecca Crawford, who was daughter of Annie Mary Johnson and Christopher Crawford in the Buck Valley, Fulton County area of PA. >From what I can tell, there are two Jacob Hendershots born in 1747, one born in July and the other in May, who could be his father. I now have conflicting information as to which one. Can anyone please verify which Jacob is his father and trace the ancestors back in my line? Please feel free to email at the address below and thank you for any help that you can lend me. Kay bobnkaymac@sssnet.com

Please don't let me down. Best Regards, Cousin Karen in Pa.

If that naughty old dreamer Cleveland B. Hendershot were still alive, he would be making hay out of a newly found mine field. In surfing a German group I came upon a Baltic surname which C.B.H. would have claimed also for our ancestry: Jendruschat = Heinrich- with possible endings of -son, -ate, -eite, or -aite. It would be an awfully longshot even for his crooked imagination. John

Germany as a country has not existed very long. Prior to 1871, what is now Germany was a number of separate states, such as W=FCrttemberg, Prussia, Bavaria, etc., whose boundaries changed frequently as a result of war and other causes. The Palatinate was one of these states, and was located along the Rhine River, roughly where the modern German state of Rhineland-Pfalz is located. In the 18th and early 19th century, the term "Palatine" was used in America to describe immigrants from "The Palatinate" and other adjoining German-speaking areas. Finding an American reference to someone being from the "Palatinate" may not point to a specific place of origin, but rather an approximate location in or near western or southern Germany. Palatines to America is an organization for people researching the origins of their German-speaking ancestors, no matter where they originated. Many of the German-speaking people that came to North America did not come directly from what is now Germany. Many of them came here after spending time (from a few months to a few generations) in other countries, such as Switzerland, England, Russia, Ireland, France and other countries. Our members are researching immigrants from many of these areas. A More Technical Description of the Palatinate (as posted to soc.genealogy.german newsgroup by Robert Sminkey) Palatinate, Or German PFALZ, was, in German history, the lands ofthe count palatine, a title held by a leading secular prince of the Holy Roman Empire. Geographically, the Palatinate was divided between two small territorial clusters: the Rhenish, or Lower Palatinate, and the Upper Palatinate. The Rhenish Palatinate included lands on both sides of the Middle Rhine River between its Main and Neckar tributaries. Its capital until the 18th century was Heidelberg. The Upper Palatinate was located in northern Bavaria, on both sides of the Naab River as it flows south toward the Danube, and extended eastward to the Bohemian Forest. The boundaries of the Palatinate varied with the political and dynastic fortunes of the counts palatine. During the War of the Grand Alliance (1689-97), the troops of the French monarch Louis XIV ravaged the Rhenish Palatinate, causing many Germans to emigrate. Many of the early German settlers of America (the Pennsylvania Dutch) were refugees from the Palatinate. During the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, the Palatinate's lands on the west bank of the Rhine were incorporated into France, while its eastern lands were divided largely between neighboring Baden and Hesse. After the defeat of Napoleon (1814-15), the Congress of Vienna gave the east-bank lands to Bavaria. These lands, together with some surrounding territories, again took the name of Palatinate in 1838. =3D=3D=3D=3D PABRADFO Mailing List =3D=3D=3D=3D The Women's Page of the Tri-Counties Online Research Library gives you the o= pportunity to honor your female ancestors who were left out of the history b= ooks.

I too have at least one hebdeshot cartoon,maybe two

Dear Pahendrsht@aol.com, may I call you "Pa" for short? Back on 24 Nov. our correspondent PAPAAL2@aol.com cited a fictional movie character called Hendershot. I can add some more examples, plus a real one, to cheer you along in the new year.. There is a man named Hendershot in the movie/television world. I have forgotten his occupation, but I have seen the name in credits at the end of movies. Two of the principal characters in the movie <<Where Were You When the Lights Went Out?>> were a wealthy father and a conniving son both named Otis Hendershot. I think Jr. was the villain of the piece. My uncle Frank Hendershot in Niagara Falls sent me cartoons from various publications saying, "They must think the name "Hendershot" is funny." The late Gordon W. Hendershot lived in Hamilton, Ont. where his paper products plant was located. So the name was well known locally. There was a spate of cartoons in the Hamilton Spectator newspaper at one time in which the Sad-Sack type character was a stumble bum named -- guess what? John Hi John and all; Thanks for the above information. As you can see I added it to the list. I have a cousin Eric Hendershot from St. George, Utah who is a screenwriter and has had several of his screenplays made into movies. Angels in the Attic Take Down Tyler and several others that escape me right now. They are on video now. Eric's brother Chris Hendershot and wife Valerie and sister Claudia were at the SLC Utah Reunion. Anybody else know of famous "Hendershots?" Maybe a funny Hendershot story?? Karen in Pa. You can call me Pa or you can call me Ma, John. LOL.
