Just to remind everyone -- Charlotte's "Pearls" are now archived permanently at http://www.rootsweb.com/~ote/usa_genealogy/mo_newspaper.htm -------------------------------- Jefferson Democrat Hillsboro, Jefferson county, Missouri Part II WEDNESDAY, 3 FEBRUARY 1886 The trial of F.P. BROWN resulted in his acquittal by the jury. He had been in jail nearly four months, the State proved that A.H. FOSTER and George MOSS had given their note for $80, for goods purchased of a peddler; that the note had been deposited in the Jefferson county Bank; that the money to pay the note was sent by FOSTER to BROWN by money order on De Soto postoffice; that BROWN got the order cashed and deposited the money in the bank at De Soto and drew it out for his own use. The testimony of MOSS and FOSTER was that BROWN wrote to MOSS at Pevely, demanding payment of the note, upon which MOSS wrote to FOSTER at East St. Louis, and FOSTER sent the money to BROWN. BROWN testified that he knew nothing of the note and had not demanded payment of it, and that when the money came he did not know what it was for. He admitted using it. Some time after he was arrested and in jail, he procured money and paid FOSTER. Joseph J. WILLIAMS and W.H.H. THOMAS defended and worked every point to advantage. Mrs. BROWN and her three little children, on exhibition , were enough to excite the sympathy of the hardest heart; but we do not know how much influence that had on the jury. HOUSES' SPRING - Jacob SCHULZE lost one of his son's lately. He died with pneumonia. DIEHLE, who was shot in the face some time ago by STEPHENSON, is recovering slowly. He is likely to lose his eyesight. Wm. MEGRAN, an old resident of this vicinity, died the 25th ult., in the City of St. Louis, where he had been spending the past six months. He had been in bad health for several months and was advanced in years. By close management he had accumulated a great deal of this world's goods. Having never married, he spent most of his life alone. W.D. January 30, 1886. WEDNESDAY, 10 FEBRUARY 1886 DE SOTO - Mose F. BROWN, who has been very sick with pneumonia, is better. Mr. HANDCOCK will build a 7-room frame house on his farm, near town. Our city has again experienced a great sorrow from a railroad accident. Last Friday morning two passenger trains collided near Mill Springs, and three men were instantly killed. The unfortunate men were Edward WALLACE,engineer, and Press G. EVENS and Harry MORTON. Engineer Geo. WALKER ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- buried on Monday by the Brotherhood of Engineers. The funeral was conducted by Dr. FEY of the Episcopal church, and was largely attended by citizens of De Soto, as well as by James W. EVENS, and lady, Chas. A. PRATTE and lady, of Moberly, Mo.; Mr. and Mrs. SCHWAUB of St. Louis, and many railroad men. WALKER resided here with his family. February 8, 1886 ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE - Notice is hereby given that letters of administration on the estate of Henry MEYER, deceased, were granted to the undersigned on the 16th day of January, 1886, by the Probate court of Jefferson county, Missouri. All persons having claims against said estate are required to exhibit them for allowance to the administrators within one year after the date of said letters, or they may be precluded from any benefit of such estate; and if such claims be not exhibited within two years from the date of this publication, they shall be forever barred. C.H. KLEINSCHMIDT, January 27, 1886, Public Administrator. WEDNESDAY, 10 FEBRUARY 1886 The population of our suburbs was increased by the arrival of two girls, one in Thomas WILLIAMS' family at the other in Thomas CAGE's. License to wed - James PATTON and Fed HUSKEY, Louis AUBUCHON and Alice RECK, Andrew STECKER and Ernstine ROTH, J.F. HOFFMAN and Nannie PRITCHETT. MrQUINN, an old, nearly blind Irish Peddler from Carondelet, who has been tramping through this county for several years, was found last Saturday, on Big River, near the old Starrett McKEEN farm, frozen to death. An inquest was held by 'Squire BRYAN, developing nothing more than that the old man had probably fallen into the river, and after he got out, was not able to find his way to any house. DIED - January 31, 1886, at his residence near Hematite, of consumption, Thomas L. PORTER, aged about 60 years. Mr PORTER was an honest, industrious and frugal farmer; was for some years a victim of intemperance, but had conquered his appetite for strong drink and for the last twenty years had been a total abstainer. His constitution was shattered in the army, but for some unaccountable reason he never obtained pension. By hard work he had secured a comfortable home, and his most intimate acquaintances were always his best friends. Before his death he made his peace with God and was prepared for the dissolution. He leaves a wife, seven children and several grand children. W.M. This week Dr. SPAULDING entertains a new stranger, which arrived at his house last Monday. Boy -- No. 2. Josiah MUSE and wife have been on a tour of inspection to Harviell, Mo. They contemplate moving to that point soon. HEMATITE - Thomas L. PORTER, living near our town, died on the 31st ult. of lung disease. We notice that James WAGGENER, the associate editor of the Watchman, looks rather sober. We do not know whether he contemplates matrimony or suicide, or both. Hematite, February 8, 1886. Report of inquest by Dr. MOCKBEE, over body of Samuel POPE, was approved and feebill of $6.28 allowed. Joseph POLYTCHECK, a deaf and dumb boy, aged 10 years, was ordered sent to the asylum for the education of the deaf and dumb, and until he is received by the asylum Chris HELD is authorized to keep him for $2.50 per month. </HTML>

DONNELL, clerk of the County Court for the county and State aforesaid, do hereby certify that the above and foregoing is a true and correct statement of all warrants and jury script issued by Jefferson County, Missouri, for the year ending February 1, 1886, giving date of issue, the purpose for which issued, to whom payable, and the amount of each respective warrant and script. In witness, Whereof I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of said court at ---- to Hillsboro, Mo, this February 1, 1886. W.R. DONNELL, Clerk County Court. WEDNESDAY, 3 FEBRUARY 1886 Mrs. Justine BURGESS of Vinita, Indian Territory, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. HUG, of Crystal City. The following births were filed the past week: December 8, to Mrs. Peter PELLON, a girl; November 8, to Mrs. P.C. ZOLLMAN, a girl. Henry YOUNG, Colored, who was confined in jail for stealing a turkey, was released by Judge THOMAS last week, on account of his family being sick. An eight-year-old son of Charles SMITH, of near Zion, fell on the ice one day last week and broke one of his arms. Dr. MOCKBEE fixed up the injured limb. The fatman's better-half is grateful to Peter STROUP for a new husband fan, commonly called a broom. The handle is of soft wood, for which fore thought Pete has our thanks. At the school, near Grubville, Vestus WIDEMAN and Clark PREWETT, two boys, got into a fight and WIDEMAN cut PREWETT in the eye with a knife. No arrests have been made yet that we know of. James M. BROOKS, one of our life-long friends, was buried on the 26th ultmo. He died at his home near Rush Tower, of consumption. He leaves a wife and four children, who of whom are yet small. Rudolph STEWART called on Dr. MOCKBEE, last Thursday, to get a broken arm bandaged. He started to climb a tree to scare out a fox, when the limb broke with him and he fell to the ground, breaking his right arm, near the wrist. The way the children tell it is, that "Mrs. KERKOWSKI found to little girl babies, one night last week, in the burnt kitchen at the DOUGLAS place, and that Jake paid her five dollars for them." Mrs. D. has the little eight pounders to speak for them selves. Michael ROSENAUER is now at Alba, Texas. He appears well pleased with his surroundings, and says there is plenty of work there at $1.50 to $2.50 a day. He invites young men who want a chance to make something, to come and bring their female friends along, and if one has more than one such friend to bring one for him. Marriage licenses were issued last week to three couples -- Charles H. SMITH and Mary P. KLEINSCHMIDT, George W. COUCH and Annie A GRAHAM, George BRAUN and Anna NEMNICH. It is funny what different ideas people have of the cost of such documents. Mr. COUCH asked for two-bits worth of license, but the Recorder soon convinced him that a less quantity than a dollar's worth would do him no good. Mr. BRAUN was expecting it to cost him about five dollars, and was agreeably surprised that one dollar was all that was needed. The agent at Wicks, residing at Windsor Hotel, is happy over the arrival of a young stranger. Alex. FOSTER also rejoices over a similar prize. Mrs. Margaret DEGEARRE, who was indicted for adultery, was arrested by Deputy Sheriff MUELLER and brought to town, when it was discovered that she was about to become a mother; so her case was continued till next term and she released on her own recognizance, and sympathising citizens gave her money to take her home. </HTML>

John H. Ieude or Yeide or Yeida married Eliza Ethredge about Feb. 15, 1884 in Jefferson county. Their first child was Alma Maude Yeida, born Nov. 18, 1884 near Pevely. I am trying to find out who the parents and siblings of Eliza Catherine Ethredge/Etheridge were. Thank you Freida J. Hamilton

An emigration museum called "Ballinstadt-Port of Dreams" opens July 5, 2007 in Hamburg, Germany. It will commemorate the 5.5 million people who left for America from Germany's largest port. Their descendents include Johnny Weismuller, Henry Steinway, George Gershwin and Angelina Jolie. The museum is named for a prominent early 20th Century Hamburg Jew, Albert Ballin- friend of Kaiser Wilhelm II, Churchill and admired by Bismark. The Nazis strove to destroy him by smashing his statues, erasing his name from documents and banning literature about him. He invented the first vacation cruise, built the biggest ships in the world, and served on them what became known as the "hamburger." The museum is part of Europe's largest urban construction project in Hamburg's Hafen-City (Harbor City) District. The district will eventually replace the current "America Center," and include an aquarium, philharmonic hall, maritime museum, etc. by the time it is finished , about 2020.

Charlotte, As always, the Pearls are wonderful. I wanted to let you know, however that I recognized several various articles in the past weeks. After checking the archives, many were posted in 2002. Hopefully, knowing this will save time for you in the future. Thank you for the volunteer hours you contribute by providing these to all of us! ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Hi Rick, The history center library director is Loretta Ponzar and if she has a helper, they will handle photocopy requests i.e. probate file. Not sure if Cindy Christopher is still the one handling the requests but here's her email: kchristo@jeffco.edu There's also several local researchers who either do it for volunteer or for hire and am sure they will answer you soon. Happy Hunting! :) LaDonna -------------------------------- LaDonna Garner, CGSM www.LeafSeeker.com Certified GenealogistSM and CGSM are service marks of the Board for Certification of GenealogistsR and used here under license. -----Original Message----- From: mojeffer-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:mojeffer-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of richard van wagenen Sent: Monday, April 30, 2007 4:26 PM To: MOJEFFER@rootsweb.com Subject: [MOJEFFER] Need name of Lady who does genealogy work at the college Could somebody send me her name and email address. ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to MOJEFFER-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
