Savidge who became a somewhat famous Omaha, Nebraska Methodist minister and wrote an autobiography, http://www.rootsweb.com/~nechurch/MECHURCH/faith/pages/hfigcnts.htm in which he wrote: "When I was a boy on the Minnesota farm we hauled logs to the sawmill in the winter across the lake on the ice and, having a gentle team, when once I reached the lake I would hang the lines on the standard of the sled and, walking behind the load, I would preach to the sawlogs. And, by the way, I have preached to sawlogs since. "I remember at one time I preached on one of these occasions so loud, and became so interested in my theme, that the neighbors on the opposite side of the lake a half mile away heard me and they flocked to their doors and listened to my preaching." I found the Lake on the USGS map of the Middle Minnesota River Basin. Guess I'll have to find the coordinates of the farm Charles the elder bought in 1858, wander to Minnesota (from Maryland :-) and check it out. No biggie.

Charles wasn't married until 1845. Archibald is in the 1850 Ohio census, age 12. Cinderella is his next younger sibling, age 8 in 1850, youngest is Morgan, aged 2. Sister Hannah is 13 and brother James is 17 and a "plasterer". The head of household though is "Jane Kingsley," a 40 year old woman born in New Jersey. In the 1880 Census (Minnesota) she is living with Cinderella and Corlett Hill (and their children) and is listed as Corlett's mother-in-law which means she's Cinderella's mother. Her occupation is listed as "midwife". She must have reverted to her maiden name. So, who's the father? :-) She was born about 1810 and in the 1850 census for Ohio, Levi and Foster Savidge were both born in New Jersey, 1816 and 1817, respectively. They could be younger brothers-in-law though they live in Wyandot with all the other Savidges while Jane, Archibald, Cinderella, et al live in Van Wert. I can't find Jane under Kingsley or Savidge in New Jersey.

Surnames: Savidge, Hill Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DIB.2ACE/340.2.1.1 Message Board Post: I am assuming by your follow-up post that Archibald was not a son of Charles. I had not seen any other Savidges in LeSueur that he could have been a son of, but of course it was possible that he was a nephew or younger cousin. Looking closer at the census information, Archibald would have been born about 1836 which would have put Charles at about 12 years old and not a very likely father. Archibald Savidge was a member of Company K, in the Seventh Infantry. His company was mustered September 24, 1862. He was promoted to corporal. He was wounded severly in the battle of Tupelo. He was killed in the battle of Nashville, 16 December 1864. Nearby to where he lived was Corlett Hill and Cinderella Savidge Hill, b. abt 1842 in Ohio. I was wondering if you had found Cinderalla in your research?

Savidge is Charles Henry Savidge, my grandfather's grandfather. He was born in New Jersey, in Upper Freehold to Samuel Savidge and Sarah Leigh. Sarah's father, Daniel Leigh was in the Revolution and left his harness making shop to Samuel, who had been his apprentice and became his son-in-law. Daniel Leigh, wife and all the remaining children except Sarah (since she was married to Samuel) emigrated to Ohio. The researcher I hired in New Jersey suspects he may have gotten land as partial payment for his services in the Revolution. Charles was born in New Jersey and younger brother Daniel Leigh Savidge stayed there and took over the harness making shop. Charles, however, wandered as an older teen/young twenty-something to Philadelphia and there, learned carpentry before wandering to Ohio where he married and then wandered to Minnesota. I'm looking hard at a Foster W. Savidge in Philadelphia, a carpenter who is a boarder (in 1880) with another, unrelated carpent! er's home/family. Charles was born in 1823 and was married 1845 in Ohio so would have been in Philly around 1840-44ish and probably had a family member or someone to learn the carpentry trade from. There's all sorts of Savidges in Ohio in the 1850 census including a Foster who was born in New Jersey (might have been the father of the Foster in Philadelphia in 1880) and our Archibald can be found too, 12 at the time. They're all cousins or something but darned if I can figure it all out :-) I was dreaming about it last night. Archibald died in the Civil War, down in Tennesee :-(

Surnames: Savidge, Cheadle, Wendelschafer Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DIB.2ACE/340.2 Message Board Post: The closest I can come is census records. In the 1860 federal census, C. H. Savidge was dwelling #1187 and family #1067. In that census, in Cleveland Township, Asa Cheadle was dwelling #1181 and family #1061. The Cheadles lived on the Dodd Road near the north end of Savidge Lake, not too far from the Goldsmith Lakes. I am curious if Archibald Savidge (b. abt 1836 in Ohio, d. 1864 in Tennessee) was a son of Charles. He married Betty Wendelschafer.

Savidge and his family lived in Cleveland, Le Sueur, MN between 1855-1885 and I'm looking for land records or anything to associate the Savidge name to the the lake/cemetery :-) They wandered up from Ohio. Charles was in the 4th Infantry in the Civil War, promoted from Private to Chaplain after about 6 months in 1864. He was a sometimes Methodist minister and his son, Charles W. Savidge was also a Methodist minister and later settled in Omaha. My great grandfather William (all the boys) graduated from the University of Minnesota and did law school in Michigan, married my great grandmother and they moved to Kearney, Nebraska (where my grandfather was born) and then to the Idaho Territory where he helped draft/signed their Constitution.

John and Ann Monaghan were the parents of eight children: Eliza, Maria, Martin, Peter, Ann, Margaret, Dennis and John. The elder Monaghan and his wife were communicants of the Catholic church of their native country. Martin Monaghan received a common-school education in the public schools of Ireland and when twenty-four years of age came to America, locating in the state of New Jersey, near Jersey City, where he was employed by a market gardener for six years. About 1876, Mr. Monaghan left New Jersesy and came to Minnesota, where he purchased eighty acres of land located in Kasota township, LeSueur county. On taking possession of his farm in Kasota township, Martin Monaghan found it to be timber land, and proceeded to clear his acreage and added improvements and land until he is the owner of a well-improved and thoroughly cultivated farm of one hundred and sixty acres in this county. Mr. Monaghan limits his efforts to general farming. During the year 1876 Martin Monaghan was married to Catherine Koegen, a native of Ireland, who came to America and located at Jersey City, New Jersey, where she joined relatives who had preceded her. To the marriage of Martin and Catherine Monaghan have been born nine children: John, Peter, Patrick, Thomas, Michael, Daniel, Mary, Agnes and Catherine. Mr. Monaghan and his family are communicants of the Catholic church. For six years Martin Monaghan served as a member of the township board, during that time being one of the influences and forces for the development and progress of the various interests in Kasota township. In addition to his service on the township board, Mr. Monaghan, for some time, was a valued member of the township school board.

Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DIB.2ACE/332 Message Board Post: The Sun, San Bernardino, CA - February 3, 2005 Despite her kindly manner, soft-spoken voice and supply of fresh-baked goodies, EMILY ROGERS was no ordinary grandmother. Her abundance of energy kept her active for gambling trips to Laughlin, NV and caring for her grandchildren during the day. "She got along with everyone and didn't have an enemy in the world," said her son, Carl A. Rogers of Redlands. "She didn't have a mean bone in her body." Rogers, a longtime resident of Redlands, died of Lou Gehrig's disease on Jan. 19 at her home. She was 79. She was born October 6, 1925, in New Prague, MN and graduated from New Prague High School in 1943. Immediately after graduation she hopped on a train with a girlfriend and headed for Southern Califonria to escape the cold weather. Rogers began working as a cashier for McDonald Douglas, an aircraft company in Long Beach. She met her husband, Carl, at a dance hall in Long Beach and married him in 1949. They were married 46 years until he died in 1995. Rogers continued working at McDonald Douglas until 1951, when she became pregnant with her first child, April After moving to Redlands in 1972, Rogers became a career mom and devoted much of her time to sewing, cooking and gardening. "Nothing ever seemed to bother Emily," said her daughter-in-law, Michelle Rogers of Redlands. "She was a lovely lady, so caring and understanding." In 1996 she began attending the Joslyn Senior Center and Redlands Community Senior Center. "She would get on the bus with them seniors and go all over Southern California, Nevada and Arizona," her son said. Rogers looked forward to the trips to the San Diego Zoo, Sea World and Long Beach Aquarium. She often attended productions at Lifehouse Theater. She was also a regular visitor to the Colorado River, where she would ride a pontoon boat or enjoy a mixed drink at Sundance. Spending time with family was important to Rogers, and she could often be found raking leaves or helping her grandchildren with their schoolwork. "She was there for everybody all the time," said her son. "She was honest and equal and had no favoritism wih anyone." Other survivors include another son, Larry Rogers of Redlands, a daughter April Rogers of Yucaipa; two sisters, Stacy Quinnell of Lakeville, MN and Leona Wilkins of Rochester, MN; two brothers, Ray and Emil Moran, both of New Prague, MN; three grandchildren and one great-grandchild. Services were held. Arrangements were handled by Montecito Memorial Chapel in Loma Linda.
