Lucas Co. Marriages, 1849-1918, p. 76 5 Jan 1902 Goldie Clark, 17, married Charles Burgett, 20, Lucas Co., IA 2. History of Lucas Co., 1978 edition, p. 465 This source has a short article about the Charles Burgett Family in which it states that "Golda I. Clark was born May 3, 1884". It doesn't state her parents name. 3. Lucas County Cemetery Records, p. 48 Mt. Zion Cemtery, Lincoln Twp. Golda Burgett is buried at Row 15 N-S, #2. There are several Burgett's buried there as well as Clark's. The eldest Clark seems to be John Clark, b. 1844-1906 Co. F. 36 Ia. GAR and wf Eliza A. 1840- 1906 buried in the previous Row # 14S-N, # 1. Nearby are buried Krutsingers, Van Winkle's, Bakers. etc. This is the outline of what I have thus far for the John Clark family ... Need to work at more connections myself. I am from the Werts line.

Hi All: Well, I originally sent 'THE EARLY PROSPECTS' article as one piece -- and didn't get it back, so thought it was probably too long... So, then, as you can see, I divided it into 4 parts and re-sent them. Well, it apparently went through as one part, as it came back to me. So, now you have another of my 'miscomb--berated' articles in many pieces... Sorry. Nancee

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, July 19, 1906 MRS. A.W. MAUK returned from Lawrence, Kansas, last Friday, where she had gone to attend the funeral of her mother, who died at the home of her daughter, MRS. A.B. BOWMAN, in St. Louis on the preceding Wednesday morning. CHRISTINA GLADSTONE was born in Scotland more than eighty years ago; on arriving at the years of womanhood she was united in marriage to JOHN HUTCHINSON. Later in life they migrated from Scotland to Greenfield, Ohio. After the death of her husband, some fifteen years ago, she made her home with her daughter, MRS. BOWMAN, in St. Louis. She left three daughters to mourn her departure: MRS. Judge J.R. GRAY, MRS. A.B. BOWMAN and MRS. A.W. MAUK, of whitebreast Township. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert October 15, 2004 [email protected]

Ours was a tranquil neighborhood -- in the days when the razor-back hog stalked up and down the earth seeking whom he might devour. He was considered a bird of freedom and when the first curtailment of his liberties was threatened, his human friends arose in arms and the seige of Troy was a fourth of July farce in comparison. Just why the razor-back stood so in with the people we have never been able to learn for it was certainly not on account of his usefulness or beauty -- he had neither. The people were unusually law abiding and would as soon violate a statute than they would break one of the sacred commandments -- but the razor-back hog had inalianable rights which they were bound to respect and defend, so when an honest settler moved into the community, secured a strip of domain and proceeded to enclose it with a "shanghai fence," as per provision of the recently passed "hog law," as it was designated, without the aid or consent of any other nation, they considered i! t unjust innovation and he found it hard to resist public opinion even if he did have the law on his side. The contest was a warm one but time settled it without bloodshed, other than that of a few lean porkers. -- AUTHOR UNKNOWN. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert October 15, 2004 [email protected]

"Going fishing" has never had the same heart swelling interest as in the olden days. The Chariton River is a much bigger stream down in the "Davy Evans" mountains than it is when it languidly passes by Bailey's brick yard, and Alpine scenes offered nothing more of grandeur. Almost every Saturday afternoon, in the summer time, after a week of daily trudging over the hills to burlesque of a district school, or spent under the burning sun suckering corn, our elders took us to the river to bait for big fish. Fishing was better in those days before the river filled up with mud and a fine string of "eats" was usually the result. Then we would go bathing in the turbulent stream and a swing from shore to shore on grape vines, cut loose at the bottom. Occasionally the o'er head moorings would give way and a splash below followed, but who cared for that so long as mud turtles didn't lay hold -- for when they did they wouldn't let go 'till it thundered, but with all his experience! the writer does not call to mind a boy that had to stand in the creek until a volley was fired from Heaven to make the turtle relax his hold. It was a happy, free life. After all we may have missed a whole lot of fun by not being savages. Who knows?" * * * * * * * * *

In the days of which we write there was a strip of prairie land between Honey Creek and the Mayfield slough, down in Washington Township, which serves as a duplicate of the author's model. Beyond was the Chariton River with its low land and fringe of native wood. On either side the defined limits running back to the north for miles and miles. Today it is the location of many of the best Lucas County farms but then it was the resort for the domestic herds and in the summer time thousands of feeding animals covered the plain. This was in the day before the mowing machine and in the autumn this tract furnished an abundant hay supply for the long winter season. The haying season was one of merriment and the echo of the scythe stone, as it beat its tattoo against the steel blades can yet be heard in imagination, and the "swish" of the blades as they closed upon the succulent growth of native grass and wild pea vines are still vivid. This haying operation represented a sort! of communistic interest in which all the farmers nearby, together with the women and children, joined. Long win rows were swept up and the broad expanse was soon covered with shocks, presenting a sight for the landscape painter. There was seldom rain at this season of the year, so the hauling and stacking could be performed at leisure -- but how the fall winds did blow, requiring skill and tight booming. Sometimes the meadow of shocks was left unguarded and the marauding cattle would pounce down upon them with their horns and create havoc in the hayfield, but it was not often this lack of precaution was taken. This is an autumn scene from a boyhood memory with numerous escapes from snake bites left untold. * * * * * * * * To Be Continued . . .Part 3

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, May 31, 1906 'THE EARLY PROSPECTS' - - - - - - - - This is an age of restless apprehension and the present seems hum-drum and the surroundings uninteresting. Skies far beyond the horizon only are azure and the beauties of nature appear in other climes. Why this condition exists it is hard to explain for certainly life offers as many opportunities here as in the regions now being exploited for commercial purposes -- but the unread is more attractive than the present state of existance. The past has a melancholy about it from which we gather great clusters of content in contemplation -- now that it is forever past -- melancholy because its associations are but memories. It is not likely there is a place in all the west country in its virgin state offering the advantages of Lucas County in its earlier days -- or where life could be more enjoyed -- with its broad prairies, interspersed with streams and small forests, with here and there patches that had yielded to civilized cultivation. Mountain scenery is grand, interlockin! g its mineral resources, but an Iowa prairie, with its deep, rich soil, expanse of waving blue stem grass and wild flowers is much more profound because it submits more readily to the needs of mankind. This picture is drawn from an observation of thirty-five or forty years ago. The face of nature has been so transformed that little remains of the original features. Population then was sparce and the commons were public property so far as its uses went and domestic animals from the Morgan horse down to the "hazel-splitter" hog chose its own feeding ground. Great herds of cattle grazed on the delicious grasses and sometimes thousands of sheep, the various flocks of the settlers, associated themselves as if for mutual protection against the avariciousness of the prairie wolves. In one of our school books we used to read a description of the Red River Valley with its wild herds of cattle and horses -- a scene appealing most vividly to the imagination.

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, June 7, 1906 HENRY SCHRECK, of Benton Township, was brought before the commission of insanity, Monday, and the findings were that his mental condition was such that it was best to send him to the hospital at Clarinda. MR. SCHRECK has lived with his family for several years on a farm and was an industrious citizen. He is a German and somewhat of a recluse, seldom mingling with his neighbors, and it is thought this had a tendency to bring about his present condition. He was not boisterous or threatening but once before he became deranged and coming into the house pulled off his clothes and put them into the fire. Next he seized the house cat and consigned it to the flames etc. The same tendencies showed themselves this time and it was thought best to apprehend him at once. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert October 15, 2004 [email protected]

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, June 7, 1906 'MEMORIAL LINES' To the memory of Elsie, Helen & Joseph Cackler. ~~~~~~~~~ The Angel of death with his slow, silent tread Has knocked at the door once more, And dear little Joseph, on pinions of love, Has been wafted to Heaven's bright shore. First little Elsie, the light of the home Was called from our arms away; Soon Helen bade farewell to us all And was borne to the realms of day. Our home is so loud since the babies have gone With jesus forever to be; Their dear little forms that we all loved so well In this world we will nevermore see. God who sees and knows all looked down from His home With eyes of tenderest love; And planted the flowers we loved so well here In His beautiful garden above. The storms of temptation and high winds of sin Will not come to your babes over there; But the angels of God in that beautiful home Will watch them with tenderest care. Dear Parents, look up to the Savior, Who said "Let the little ones come unto me," And some happy day the summons will come To join your precious ones three. And in Heavenly bliss while the ages roll, You will dwell in the Land of Day, And God, Himself with tenderest touch, Will wipe all your tears away. -- FLORENCE LACY EVANS. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert October 15, 2004 [email protected] *This is beautiful..

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, May 31, 1906 JOHN LEE BROWN was born in Essex County, N.Y., Oct. 30, 1838, coming to Hendricks County, Indiana, with his parents in 1848. He came to Iowa in 1856, afterwards returning to Indiana where he enlisted July 21, 1862 in Co. A. 70th Indiana Infantry, his Colonel being the late Benj. Harrison, afterwards President of the United States. MR. BROWN was wounded at Resacca, May 15, 1864, losing his arm, and was discharged in March, 1865 on account of this disability. He followed teaching school in his earlier manhood and was Recorder of Deeds of Hendricks County, Indiana, four years. He returned to Iowa in 1870 and was elected County Auditor in 1875 and held that office until he was elected Auditor of State, holding that position two consecutive terms. All will remember this career. During the administration of Gov. Buren R. Sherman friction arose between the executive and Auditor BROWN and he was ordered to vacate the office, which he refused to do. The Governor had the doors bursted in with sledge hammers and MR. BROWN forcibly ejected. Long impeachment proceedings followed but afterwards the ejected official was reinstated by Gov. Larrabee. This is too well known, especially in Lucas County, to elaborate on. After his term of office had expired he purchased the Chariton Herald and for twelve years conducted it as a Republican paper. After disposing of it he got control of the Ottumwa Democrat, but his health was not such that he could endure the strain of hard mental work. Later he sold it, purchased a farm in Cedar Township and resided there until his death. In character he was a man of strong traits, firm convictions and never yielded a point for policy sake -- in fact he compromised on nothing. This made him enemies as well as friends. He was a fighter in every sense of the word and a man of many admirable qualities, having a mind of unusual strength, with a faculty of forcible expression. His death occurred at his Cedar Township home last Thursday, after four days' illness of pneumonia. He was 63 years of age and leaves a wife and nine children. His remains were brought to Chariton for burial. Services were held on Sunday afternoon in the M.E. Church, of which denomination he had been a member from early manhood. Col. O.A. Bartholomew preceded the sermon with an address appropriate to the memory of the departed. They had known each other in youth, had served together in the Nation's conflict, turned westward together, neighbored during all the intervening years and paid a befitting tribute to the man of iron who is now stilled in death. Rev. Nathan Evans, his pastor, followed with a sermon devoid of fulsome eulogy, but full of pathos, measuring well that character so well known to the citizens of Chariton, rendering to him in words the credit due for his fidelity of purpose and loyalty in execution in the affairs of life. The G.A.R. Post and I.O.O.F., ! of which orders he was a member, took prominent part in the ceremonies. Truly JOHN LEE BROWN is one man who has left his foot prints on the sands of time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert October 15, 2004 [email protected]

Hi all, Gary this is for you, don't know if you are connected to these Mauk's, but thought you would like to look. http://www.birdsofafeather1.com/photos/ Deb

Hi all, Nancee that was nice of you to share your experience traveling to Kentucky. I really enjoy reading about the trips that people take and what they find out. The Irish thing about not getting married was quite interesting 5 out of 8 never married, I would have been surprised by that revelation also. My mother-in-laws parents both came from Ireland, different counties, think they met on the boat coming over here. Her mother had five or six siblings and three of them never married. Thanks for sharing, Deborah
