    1. Biography: Jason L. Alderson
    2. Richard Berkheiser
    3. Biography from Rick B Saturday, June 10, 2006 HISTORY OF INDIANA FROM ITS EXPLORATION TO 1922 BY LOGAN ESAREY, Ph. D., ALSO AN ACCOUNT OF ST. JOSEPH COUNTY FROM ITS ORGANIZATION EDITED BY JOHN B. STOLL (Volume III). "BIOGRAPHICAL", published in Dayton, Ohio by Dayton Historical Publishing Co., 1923, page 189. Jason L. Alderson, proprietor of Alderson's Tire Shop, is one of the alert young business men of South Bend who is finding employment for his time and ability in his present undertaking. He was born in Orange County, Indiana, November 27, 1891, a son of Charles and Catherine (Henderson) Alderson, both of whom was born in Orange County. Coming to South Bend in 1910 they have continued to make this city their home and now reside at 213 Keasey street. He has reached the age of sixty-six years, and his wife that of sixty-three years. The Aldersons are proud of the fact that the mother of Charles Alderson lived to reach his ninetieth year. After attending the common schools of Orange County, Jason L. Alderson came to South Bend in 1909, and after being engaged in different callings, established his present business in 1915 at 407-409 W. South street, his present location. His business life was interrupted, as was the case with the majority of the young men of the count! ry, by his service in the World war, in which he enlisted March 30, 1918. On July 21, 1918 he reached France, and remained there until February 24, 1919, when he sailed for the United States. He received his honorable discharge March 27, 1919, after having been in the service a year less three days. Returning to South Bend, he resumed his business responsibilities, and is now enjoying a large patronage. Mr. Alderson was married July 7, 1917 to Miss Lydia Gradowski, of South Bend, and they have one daughter, Virginia Margaret, who was born June 16, 1920. He belongs to the Knights of Pythias and the Modern Woodmen of America. As a hardworking business man, a veteran of the World war, and a native son of the country, Mr. Alderson is entitled to the consideration of his fellow citizens, and judging from his volume of business he is receiving his just reward at their hands.

    3. Newspaper Tidbits from Rick B Saturday, June 10, 2006 "The South Bend Weekly Tribune", Saturday, January 15, 1898, page 9 Rev. N. H. Shepherd, formerly of South Bend, is now serving as pastor of the Christian church at Rensselaer, Ind. His congregation is said to have taken a strong liking to him and he is proving as popular there as he was among those of his denomination in South Bend. Mr. William M. Whitten, who has been attending the annual meeting of the Indiana Engineering society and the Indiana Academy of Science, held at Indianapolis, returned home Thursday night. Before the Academy of Science he read a paper on the "Formation of Quick-sand Pockets in the Blue Clay at South Bend," and before the Engineering society he discussed the subject of minimum grades for tile drains. The latter was impromptu to fill a vacancy in the programme caused by the failure of Malverd A. Howe, professor of civil engineering at Rose Polytechnic institute, Terre Haute, Ind., to read a paper on the arch as used in the construction of bridges.

I am looking for a Rosalie Bologne who married a Hypolite (Paul) Van Heck.She died in 1901. In her obit it states that she was born in Belgium and came to America at about the age of 14. She was 40 or about that when she died. I am looking for her family. I am assuming that she came to America with her parents. Also her daughter Florence whom was given to Kurtz family to be raised is listed as being adopted but I am unable to find a legal adoption on Florence. If anyone can help me on any of the names mentioned I would greatly appreciate it. Florence Kurtz married Earl Scheetz. Florence and Earl were my great grandparents. Florence was born in ST joseph county and Earl in Marshall Co. They lived all of their married life in Mishawaka. The last name of bologne is also found spelled boyloyne , possible boehnlein, and i believe a few others but I am not sure which is the correct spelling.

My husbands grandmother was raised there with her siblings till she became 18 and married and then she took on the role of parent to her siblings. If you are still interested I can find out more on this and i believe i can also get a few pictures of it. I can tell you that it was burned to the ground and there was a article on it in the local newspaper a few years back. I dont have any information on any of the children there or how to get ahold of it. I would have to assume that the records if any were kept may have burned with the building. I do know that it was run by Nuns.
