Died suddenly at Kish-ke-koshs village on the Che-con-go, (Skunk) river, this distinguished principal Chief, and head of the Des Moines river Foxes. He had been unwell for several days, but on the 15th inst. while his pipe which he had just called for, was being prepared, died of an apoplectic fit. At the request of the Indians, and in accordance with his own wish his remains were deposited in the Garden adjoining the Agency House, near the late agent Gen. Street, towards whom, when both were living, he appeared to cherish an unfeigned affection. Wapello was born on Rock River, and was the oldest chief of the United Nations. He was bold, talented and of commanding appearance; for near half a century he has been conspicuous among his people as an orator and warrior. He was among the delegation that visited Washington City, New York, Boston and other cities in the east in 1837, and then by his native nobleness, his correct and dignified deportment, won the respect and admiration of all who saw him. He was a Great Brave from his youth, and in more than thirty battles, his war cry has been the terror of his enemies. True and faithful to his people in all things they loved and honored him when living, and now deeply mourn his death. Through an untutored son of the forest, many of the highest virtues which adorn human nature, and which some think civilization alone can boast, shown conspicuous in his character. Full of years and honors, he has gone on his long journey to the happy hunting ground of his race; where he can hunt with his fathers and never be weary, drink of its cooling streams, and never be faint. May we all live that at the call of the Great Manito we may be prepared to follow to that bright land where trouble is unknown, and where sorrow never dwells. Hawkeye.
My daddy always said "If you keep digging around in the family history you will find skeletons in the closet." Halloween has just slipped past us and what better time to think about helping those skeletons leftover from the festivities find their families by being a part of the IAGenWeb family by adopting a wonderful Iowa county. It takes a special love for our ancestors to help others in the discovery of theirs and that's the first qualification of being a county coordinator. The counties available are Keokuk, Audubon, Cedar, Butler, Warren, Lucas and Cass counties - all available for you to visit at http://iagenweb.org/state/colist.php . Please contact us at [email protected] with your choice of counties and we will see that you have the opportunity to help skeletons find their way home!

The paternal great-grandfather was a native of Germany, and emigrated to America in the days of the early settlement of Pennsylvania. The paternal grandmother was of English birth. On the mother's side the family was of Holland descent. The subject of this sketch was reared upon a farm, passing his boyhood days in his native county, and receiving his primary education in the subscription schools of the neighborhood. The 1822 he removed with his parents to Medina County, Ohio, where he was educated by private instructors, and entered upon the study of medicine under a preceptor. On the 19th of January, 1836, he was united in marriage with Miss Esther Kreider, a daughter of Daniel and Elizabeth (Myers) Kreider, and a native of Mifflin County, Pa., born near Juniata. Eight children were born unto them, five sons and three daughters. Two of the daughters died in early childhood--Elizabeth and Emma. The living are: Mary A. is now the wife of Robert Foster, of Odebolt, Sac Co., Iowa; Daniel W., who married Miss Isabella Latta, is a prominent physician of Columbus Junction; Jennie is the wife of Dr. I. M. Smith, of Columbus City Township; Elinor resides at home; Edward became the husband of Miss Lucy Co! ville, and resides at Columbus City, and Charles, who wedded Ella Eisenhart, is living at Sheldon, Iowa. About 1842 Dr. Overholt moved to Wooster, Ohio, where he began the practice of medicine. In 1847-48 he attended the Botanical Medical College, of Cleveland, Ohio, being graduated from that institution, his diploma bearing date July 8, 1848. He continued in the practice of his profession at Wooster, when, prompted by an enterprising spirit, and wishing to better his condition and widen his field of usefulness, he removed with his family to Iowa, stopping for the winter is Des Moines County. In the following spring they moved to Louisa County, and settled upon a farm which he purchased about five miles west of Columbus City. On this farm he remained until the spring of 1865, giving his time alternately to the improvement of his farm and the practice of his profession. He then removed to Columbus City, where he devoted his entire time to the practice of medicine, until his death, which occurred Oct. 9, 1888. For this calling he was qualified as many in the profession! are not. Strictly temperate in all things, a man of sound judgment, a good nurse, kind, gentle and patient; pre-eminently a reformer, his whole natured tempered by a Christian spirit, he grew in favor with the people, who soon gave him an extensive practice. By hard study and patient application he won a reputation that did not pass unnoticed. He was often referred to as authority by the leading practitioners of his school of medicine, the physiomedical. In Prof. Kost's work on "Materia Medica," and Dr. W. H. Cook's "Dispensatory," he is often quoted as authority. Mrs. Overholt, who for many years was a consistent member of the Christian Church, and a devoted wife and mother, was called from this earth on the 21st of October, 1884. The Doctor was also a member of that church, as are also his two daughters. Dr. Overholt was a Christian gentleman of the highest order, and was a pillar in the Church of Christ. He took his Christianity with him into every walk of life where he was called to go. In business, in the sick room, in the chamber of death, and in all matters of religion, the Word of God was his judge. With an unswerving faith he looked forward, with a hope that served as an anchor to his spirit, to the sweet "by-and-by," to the final consummation of all things. In political sentiment during his early life Dr. Overholt was a Whig, and cast his first Presidential vote for William Henry Harrison in 1836, and again in 1840. On the formation of the Republican party he identified himself with that organization, and was ever afterward a faithful adherent to its principles. As a neighbor and citizen, he was always liberal, public-spirited, and just to everyone. He lived to the ipe old age of eighty-one years, and though for some months previous to his decease in feeble health, he possessed his mental faculties in full vigor, and was cheerful and hopeful to the last. Dr. Overholt lived through an eventful epoch in the world's history, and witnessed more wonderful strides made in science and invention than were dreamed of in his youth by the most visionary philosopher. Being a close observer of men and events, he acquired a varied fund of information. The causes of education and religion found in him a true friend, and in his death the church lost one of its strongest supporters, and a brother whose counsel will be sorely missed; society lost one of its time-tried members, and the children were bereft of a devoted Christian father, whose example falls upon them as a choice legacy more precious than the richest earthly treasures. The readers of this ALBUM will be pleased with the fine portrait of the Doctor given on an accompanying page."

I'm hoping (fervently) that someone has come across the parents and/or siblings of my Absalom Frazier, born about 1828-32 in or around Ohio. The first confirmed date I have of his existence is 17 Nov 1853 when he married Catherine Dill in Randolph County, Indiana. The family lived there in 1860, but moved sometime before 1870 to Iowa (Des Moines County in 1870 census, Louisa either before or after 1870). They were in Washington County, Iowa by 1885. A little note I'd made said he had brothers living in Louisa County. If true (and that's still a big if), a brother could be Elliot Frazier son of Alvis Frazier. Does anyone have information on my concrete-enforced brickwall? Absalom has been a dead end for 30 years! Christina PS he is NOT the Absalom Frazier born about 1828 in Kentucky--that one is still living in Kentucky in 1880.
