This book has no cover, and no index, and no author. I bought it on Ebay; it just has the insides, but it is full of Indiana biographies. I am not researching this family, just thought I would share. I do not know anymore about these families or these surnames. NOTE: I don’t know if there is any additional mention of this family in the book, it has no index. I do not want to sell this book. I am typing the biographies from it. Typed by Lora Radiches: Surnames in this biography: ISLEY, Eastes, Beckley, Fable, Jacobs, McConnell, MRS. ANNA BECKLEY ISLEY, the popular librarian of the Boonville Public Library, at the judicial center of Warrick County, is loyal and enthusiastic in her able administration and has done much to advance all departments of the communal service of the excellent library over which she is placed in charge.

Their two children are Ralph and Earl. The death of Frank Beckley occurred in California in 1920. Mrs. Isley was graduated in the high school at North Vernon, Indiana, and remained at the parental home until May 13, 1886, when she became the wife of Charles Isley, who was foreman for a lumber company at Boonville, Indiana, at the time of his death, and who left his widow to care for and educate their three young children. Bravely and loyally did Mrs. Isley face the responsibilities that thus devolved upon her, and though she had no financial resources, even to the extent of insurance on the life of her husband, she struggled and persevered, met problems and emergencies as they came, and succeeded in giving her children good educational advantages, both of her sons having been graduated in Purdue University. Gladys R., the only daughter, remains with her widowed mother at Boonville. Paul T., the elder son, is manager of a carbon factory in Cleveland, Ohio, and is an electrical engineer by profession.

HELEN ROETZEL, who gave characteristically loyal and efficient administration as postmistress of her native City of Boonville for several years, and whose is a gracious and constructive influence in public affairs and in civic, social and cultural circles in her home community, is the adopted daughter of the late Hon. Clamor Pelzer, who was long one of the most distinguished, honored and influential citizens of Warrick County and to whom a memoir is dedicated on other pages of this publication, so that further reference to his life history is not here demanded. Mrs. Roetzel was born at Boonville, Warrick County, December 28, 1879, and here her early education was obtained in. the public schools, in which she continued her studies until she was graduated in the high school, as a member of the class of 1898. Thereafter she was graduated also in the Lockyears Business College, in the City of Evansville, and she had a record of four years of successful service as a popular teacher in the public schools in her home county, she having taught one year in a rural district school and three years in the city schools of Boonville. June 26, 1902, marked her marriage to Conrad F. Roetzel, who is one of the progressive and representative businessmen of Boonville, where he owns and conducts a foundry and machine shop. The one child of this union is Martha Helen, who was born February 28, 1908, and who was graduated in DePauw University as a member of the class of 1929 and with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Conrad F. Roetzel was born and reared in Warrick County, and is a son of H. A. and Madeline (Kohrer) Roetzel, both natives of Germany and the latter now deceased. H. A.

The noble life of this revered citizen of Boonville, Warrick County, was its most complete and gracious justification to the world. He made that life count much in high ideals that were translated into high achievement; he won large and worthy success, and he made that success a means for helping his fellowmen; his strength was as the number of his days, and when he passed from the stage pf his mortal endeavors an entire community, rich and poor, influential and obscure, mourned the loss of a distinguished citizen and loyal and valued friend. Clamor Pelzer was born at Osenbrecb, Kingdom of Hanover, Germany, October 29, 1852, and his death occurred at his home in Boonville, Indiana, September 9, 1917. Mr. Pelzer was the youngest in a family of four Sons and one daughter, and after the death of his parents he and his eldest brother, William F., came to the United States in company with distant kinsfolk and landed in the port of New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1859, he having then been a lad of seven years. The innate and sterling characteristics of Mr. Pelzer could not mark him for obscurity, and he won advancement by very virtue of his intrinsic powers. Largely by self-discipline he developed his fine intellectual ken and also that mature judgment of men and material values that specially fitted him for leadership in thought and action during the course of his long and useful life. He was a natural diplomat and his prevision of the trend of events was remarkable, even as was his strategic divination, which would have made him a leader had circumstances required his interposition along that line of action. Mr. Pelzer soon came from Louisiana to Indiana, and the latter state gained much during the long years of his constructive activities within its borders. His power of leadership was distinctly manifest during the years of his residence in Warrick County and he became one of its foremost citizens, even as he was one who did a great service in furthering the civic and material progress of his home city of Boonville. His business activities touched divers lines, he made a success not an accident but a logical result, and his splendid powers directed with circumspection the varied enterprises with which he identified himself and through the medium of which he acquired a large estate. Mr. Pelzer, ever a stalwart advocate of the principles of the Republican party, gave more than ten years of charactetlstically loyal service as a member of the Boonville City Council, and while thus placed he was the leader in the movement that gained to the city its efficient waterworks system, he having fostered other municipal improvements and reforms that add to the well being of Boonville at the present time. Within his six years of service as a member of the local board of education was erected one of the city’s best school buildings. As a member of the State Senate Mr. Pelzer served out the unexpired term of Hon. James Gray, and by subsequent election he continued a valued member of the Senate an additional four years, he having previously been its sergeant-at-arms two terms. As a member of the Senate he presented and ably championed the bill for the creation of the Nancy Hanks Lincoln memorial fund and in establishing the birthplace of the mother of President Lincoln as a public park. After several unsuccessful attempts a legislative appropriation of $10,800, was obtained, which constituted the nucleus of the present Nancy Hanks Lincoln memorial fund. In later life he expressed the wish that his efforts in this connection might in a sense establish his own memory in the hearts of his friends and all others animated by patriotic spirit. He was chairman of the executive board that made Warrick County do well its part in connection with the centennial celebration of Indiana statehood. He served twenty-six years as president of the Boonville Fair Association and was largely influential in making the annual fairs of the county measure up to the highest standard. Mr. Pelzer’s character was the positive expression of a loyal and noble nature, he remembered those who were forgotten, he found innumerable avenues for helpful service to others, his charities and benevolences were ever rendered without ostentation, and it may consistently be said that he was a man who would “do good by stealth and blush to find it fame.” He was loved by all who came within the sphere of his buoyant, genial and kindly influence, and his circle of friends was coextensive with that of his acquaintances. He was a member of the citizens committee that supervised the construction of the present fine courthouse of Warrick County, and his aid and influence were enlisted in support of virtually every enterprise and movement tending to advance the welfare of his home city and county. At the time of his death Mr. Pelzer was president of the Tri-State Fair Association, an organization that maintained supervision of eight of the leading fairs in this section of the Union. He was vice president of the Peoples Trust & Savings Bank of Boonville at the time of his death. The memory of this sterling citizen shall long rest as a benediction on the community that long represented his home and was the central stage of his activities. Mr. Pelzer was married, May 20, 1877, to Katherine Schwinn, in Boonville. He was a member of Saint John’s Lutheran Evangelical church and was a Mason and a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows.

His first regular salary was earned driving a delivery wagon. For a time he was with the firm of Stipp & Heitger and then entered the service of Hamer & Day, furniture and undertakers. After a number of years with this organization Mr. Carter in 1923 bought a half interest in the Bedford Bottling Works, but later returned to Hamer & Day, and on June 22, 1925, bought a half interest in the business.

In his native City of Boonville, judicial center of Warrick County, Mr. Johnson is able to give specially effective and constructive communal service through the medium of the Boonville Standard, of which he is editor and publisher, and which he makes a valuable exponent of the varied interests of the city and county as well as an effective vehicle of the general news of the day. Mr. Johnson was born at Boonville and the place of his nativity was the house in which he still resides. He is a son of John and Mariamnia (Hemenway) Johnson, both likewise natives of Southern Indiana, where they were born and reared and where they passed their entire lives, John Johnson having been a representative merchant at Boonville at the time of his death, December 20, 1894. His first wife was Emaline Hemenway, an elder sister of his second wife, and she died when comparatively a young woman, the two children of this union having been Ammie and Sadie, both being deceased. Ammie was the wife of Rev. Curran E. Hargrave, a clergyman of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and her sister, Sadie, died at the age of eighteen. Of the children of the second marriage the eldest is Margaret B., who is the wife of Charles Bohannon, their home being in Des Moines, Iowa. Mr. and Mrs. Bohannon have three children. Charles H., of this review, was next in order of birth. Jessie died in childhood. Katie H. is the wife of J. F. Cady, a photographist in Boonville, and they have three children. John B., an accountant by vocation, and now a resident of Joplin, Missouri, married Miss Dove Powell, who was born and reared in that state. Robert F., youngest of the children, is serving as postmaster at Boonville. He married Miss Mary Hislop and they have two children. To the public schools of his native City of Boonville Charles H. Johnson is indebted for his youthful education, which was effectively advanced by his service in the office of the Boonville Enquirer, in which he initiated his apprenticeship to the printer’s trade when he was a lad of fifteen years and in which he continued his service fourteen years, he having won advancement from the dignified status of “printer’s devil” through the various grades and departments of service until he functions as editor. In 1899, he became a compositor in the office of the Boonville Standard, with which he continued to be associated until 1905, when he formed a partnership with Thomas Downs in the publishing of the Boonville Republican. Of this paper he became business manager and Mr. Downs the editor, and after one month the two purchased the plant and business of the Boonville Standard, on the 6th of January, 1906, and consolidated the two papers under the title of Boonville Standard. Upon the death of Mr. Downs, April 1, 1928, Mr. Johnson purchased his interest in the business from the widow of Mr. Downs, and he has since continued in full control as editor and publisher of the Boonville Standard. The plant of this progressive weekly newspaper is modern in equipment, with an excellent job department, and the paper is maintained at high standard in all phases of its communal service. Mr. Johnson is one of the influential figures in the councils and campaign activities of the Republican Party in his native county and his paper is a stalwart advocate of the principles of the party. Mr. Johnson has been officially connected with the Warrick County Republican organization more than thirty years, his service having been principally in the positions of secretary and treasurer. He is a first cousin of Hon. James A. Hemenway, United States senator from Indiana. Mr. Johnson is affiliated with both York and Scottish Rite bodies of the Masonic fraternity, and has membership also in the Knights of Pythias. He served five years as township clerk and was for several years president of the township board. In addition to his newspaper plant and building Mr. Johnson owns other real estate at Boonville, including the attractive old home in which he was born, and he is a stockholder in the Peoples Trust & Savings Bank in his native city. May 19, 1911, marked the marriage of Mr. Johnson to Miss Emma H. Laswell, daughter of Uriah and Louisa Laswell, of Boonville. Charles Richard, only child of Mr. and Mrs. Johnson, was born April 3, 1912, and is a graduate in the class of 1930 from the home high school, and is now attending Indiana University. He is an accomplished cornetist and belongs to the university band and orchestra and the famous Bandoleers Orchestra. In a contest to select representatives to participate in a musical festival from fourteen states, conducted by the Chicago Tribune in August, 1930, Richard Johnson was the only instrumentalist in the states of Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky to be sent to Chicago with all expenses paid. The tri-state contest was conducted by the Courier-Journal of Evansville.

I have been looking for my ggg grandfather that is listed in books and online in the Valley Forge site as a Rev War Vet.

She said that she asked for info they said at the office did not exhist but she proved them wrong. She tells me that NO one has applied to DAR for a Partiot status and that I can do that which will get him in the DAR books. One lady in 5 days did that for me when 4 other researchers that were of the DAR membership did find me nothing and did not know why.

This came from a list I am on. Please check it out to see if you find old lost Photo's of your family. I don't know this man. I hope it helps someone out here. Hope Engelmann In my travels, I see family photos lost in antique shops. I think this is sad, so I decided to do something about it. So I bought every family photo that I can find with a surname on it and set up a website so that the descendants of these people can reclaim their lost loved ones. I have been able to help many people. Check out my website. Maybe I can help you, as well. Robert D. King http://fourkings.freeyellow.com/Page3.html
