Jan, I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years and if I don't hurry up and get these done I will be able to add Valentines Day too. Dorothy Page 879 - Samuel Nesmith - this is in the Election section of the book In the election of Aug. 3, 1840 he ran for County Commisioner as a whig against Wm. Blair as a dem, lost by 130 votes - Blair 1118 Nesmith 988 Page 447 - 448 - 308 - 310 No Nesmiths listed - nor are there any in the index Page 591 - James Dinsmore, an early pioneer, was born in Fleming county, KY., Sept 25, 1808, came to Scott county in 1825, where he saw plenty of Indians, and in 1831 he went into the Black Hawk war; was present or near by at the evacuation by the Indians of an Indian town at Rock Island, IL. In May, 1819 he was married to Sarah Mars, and they have had 14 children, 5 of whom are living, Eldridge, Marshall, david, George and Jane, now Mrs. Dr. scott of Time. Mr. D removed to this county in 1838, and has endured the hardships of the early pioneers; has ground corn in a hand mill for bread. Page 432 -Miss Virginie Dinsmore, teacher, was bonr Dec. 26, 1853, in Hardin township. Her father, John C. Dinsmore, deceased, was Captain of co. E 99th IVI, in the Rebillion, and was also an officer in the Mexican War, participating in the battles of Buena Vista, Cerro Gordo and others, and saw Col. Hardin fall. He died in February 1874, on the old homestead near Time, this county. Miss Dinsmore has been a teacher for 7 years, and now has charge of the primary department of the Detroit schools. She is well liked as an instructor and disciplinarian. I do not find her on page 760, nor do I find Jesse Rush in the index.
