I just saw Mollie at the Archives last week. Sorry to hear that she is in the part of town that was hit. Anyone interested in seeing the damage, here's a website with photos: http://www.wtax.com/galleries.php?gallery_id=127 My family and I were listening to WTAX radio in our basement during the storm and noticed that we lost transmission from them. After seeing the pictures of their radio tower torn down, we now know why they were (and still are) off the air. My home is centrally located and we have no damage at all. My husband's work was without power and had roof damage to one of its buildings. Power is still out to the hardest hit parts of town and public school are still closed because their buses are trapped by power lines and poles. Some buses were totaled and many more lost windshields and windows. Several public schools were damaged. The archives and the Presidential Library were not affected, but the Library was closed yesterday, not sure why.

In case some of you are wondering why you haven't heard back from Molly Kennedy ([email protected]) about your searches at the Illinois State Archives or Presidential Library, I received the below from her yesterday afternoon. Bonnie --------- Tuesday, March 14, 2006 - approx 2pm Two tornadoes hit Springfield IL (where I live & research) on Sunday evening - both were F2 category tornadoes. The second one hit at 8:30pm, and tore wide swath to within 20 feet of my apartment building.... (as I was attempting to close the last open storm window... the glass in the upper storm window broke inward, but the only personal harm done by the glass shards were tiny cuts on one hand). Power lines, poles, substations, 120-ft-tall trees - - all now horizontal. I am still without electricity - and heat - (28 degrees last night, and again tonight) - and am using one of the Presidential Library's patron PC's to transmit this message... then I must return back home to continue with the cleanup efforts. I will respond to all emails as soon as power is restored - -which may not be until Wednesday or Thursday; please be patient with me? molly ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, March 15, 2006 1:00 AM Subject: IL-COOK-CHICAGO-D Digest V06 #35

Not sure. The family that I know of was from West Prussia, now Poland, but probably German speaking. Lila [email protected] wrote: > Would it have anything to do with the Loyal Order of Hibernian's?

Also, it's from an obit from 1961 if that helps narrow down possibilites. By the way, anyone trying to get information out of Springfield, might have a bit of a delay. We were hit pretty hard by tornadoes on Sunday evening. The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library is closed today. Most state closings are probably due more to power outages than damage. The cental part of the city where the Library and archives are located did not get hit, although I heard the capitol building had some windows blown out.

Thanks for trying, Dave! Not being Catholic, I don't have a clue. I am trying to track it down for a gentleman in Germany who is related to the sister. My husband was raised Catholic and took a stab at it. He suggested Holy Family ? but couldn't come up with anything else.

Pattie, I tried to send this message to you personally but was blocked, so I'm sending this to the whole list: Can you tell me (1) exactly where the cemetery is located (I'm guessing I live only about 20 minutes away from it) and (2) the grave number for Caroline and William Rosenbaum? I will try to get there with my camera this afternoon, if it's not toooo cloudy (it's been pretty cloudy lately). Actually, if it's not raining, I could probably get in and try a flash photo. Just let me know where they are located and where the cemetery is. Thanks. Marilyn Krzus

Hi Listers - I have Debbie's permission to repost these bios to any appropriate list. Her only request is that you continue to make the information free for all to use. Lisa A Narrative History of The People of Iowa with SPECIAL TREATMENT OF THEIR CHIEF ENTERPRISES IN EDUCATION, RELIGION, VALOR, INDUSTRY, BUSINESS, ETC. by EDGAR RUBEY HARLAN, LL. B., A. M. Curator of the Historical, Memorial and Art Department of Iowa Volume IV THE AMERICAN HISTORICAL SOCIETY, Inc. Chicago and New York 1931 WALTER L. JENKINS, secretary of the Kimball Brothers Company of Council Bluffs, elevator manufacturers, has been identified with that important industry since the close of the World war, in which he saw service overseas. Mr. Jenkins was born November 24, 1892, in Chicago, Illinois, where his parents, Lott and Virginia Daisey (Boxley) Jenkins, still reside. His father was born in Wales, at Morristown, son of John Jenkins, who came to the United States and lived out his life here. Lott Jenkins for many years was connected with the American Steel & Wire Company as superintendent of mills, but is now retired. His wife as born in Spottsylvania County, Virginia, a daughter of William E. Boxley, a native of the same state. William E. Boxley when a boy ran away from home to join the Union army, and later for number of years was engaged in the transfer business in Chicago. After the war he went back to Virginia and became reconciled with his southern father for his act of joining the ranks of the enemy. Lott Jenkins and wife are members of the Baptist Church and he is a Republican in politics and belongs to the Royal Arcanum. They had a family of four children: Edith, wife of Leland Tilton, a farmer at Ashton, Illinois; Gertrude Jane, wife of W. Lovering, who conducts an automobile accessory business in Chicago and lives on a farm at Shabbona, Illinois; Walter L.; and Dorothy Boxley, a graduate of the Crane Technical High School in Chicago now attending Chicago University. Walter L. Jenkins attended high school at DeKalb, Illinois, was graduated in 1913 from the Northern Illinois State Normal School at DeKalb, and until the war was engaged in educational work as a manual training instructor. He was instructor at Rupert, Idaho, until 1917. Mr. Jenkins is a talented singer and for one year was engaged in Chautauqua work. In 1917 he was appointed instructor in manual training at the Council Bluff's public schools, but resigned to join the Second Officers Training Camp at Fort Sheridan, and received his commission as second lieutenant of artillery in November, 1917. He went overseas with the One Hundred Nineteenth Field Artillery, Thirty-second Division, and was in France sixteen months. He was wounded during the great Agronne drive, and in consequence was absent from active duty for three months. He received his honorable discharge in June, 1919, and soon afterward joined the Kimball Brothers Company at Council Bluffs and has since become secretary of the corporation. He married in 1920 Miss Ruth Kimball, a daughter of W. H. Kimball, one of the founders of this Council Bluffs industry. Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins have a daughter, Martha Jean, born in 1923, and a son, Walter Kimball, born in 1929. Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins are members of the Congregational Church, but Mr. Jenkins sings in the choir of a Methodist Church at Omaha. He is a member of the Masonic fraternity, a past exalted ruler of B. P. O. Elks Lodge No. 531, is a member of the American Legion Post and the Rotary Club.
