    3. My mother had a set of twin boy naturally ~~ not generated.  There was nothing out there for twins at that time and especially during the WWII!  My father had to work in defense kind of job doing welding I think.  He built a taylor tot fro the boys.  I still have it.  It was beautiful so to speak.  But it was soooo heavy and my mother was not well.  She had to drive a stickshift car with the clutch on the floor.  It was NOT easy to get that thing into the small car.   Wish it could be put some place as a special piece of art of what could be done when there was nothing.   Alanna --- On Wed, 3/24/10, Gordon Taylor <gtaylor1@sunset.net> wrote: Does anyone know what happened to the Little Wonder that Arthur built?

    1. [MOSTFRAN] Arthur Littleton, son of Thomas - Fredericktown - Mar 1891
    2. This appeared on page two of the Jefferson Democrat, Jefferson County, MO on March 5, 1891: Arthur, 17-yr old son of Thomas LITTLETON, of this place, has made a complete railroad engine by hand, with the exception of the four drive wheels, which his father purchased for him in St. Louis. The engine has two cylinders and runs with steam as smooth as any large engine. It is reversible, and by means of a simple movement of a level will run backwards or forwards. Arthur has it attached to the engine at the Alliance mill and by means of a small pipe, connected with the steam pipe of the Alliance engine, he keeps the little one running at full tilt. He is now working on a boiler, to be placed on top of the engine; afterwards he will construct a -?- and tender and one coach, and then he will build a line of railroad with a gauge of seven latches. When finished it will be a wonder, and for industry and genius will place young LITTLETON ahead of any boy of his age and --?-- Fredericktown Plainsdealer.

    1. [MOSTFRAN] Obituary: William Glenwood Lees
    2. B. Warner
    3. Name: Glenwood Lees November 18th, 1916 - March 21st, 2010 Obituary: William Glenwood Lees, of Farmington, passed away on Sunday, March 21, 2010, at Missouri Baptist Medical Center, at the age of 93 years. He was born on November 18th, 1916, at Flat River, and was the youngest of six children born to Samuel and Caroline Cheesebrough. He was orphaned at age two when his mother died in the 1918 flu epidemic and his father was killed shortly thereafter in a mine cave in. He was adopted by Augustus and Effie Lees. Glenwood graduated from Flat River High School in 1934. After high school, he got job with the Schramm Grocery Company in Flat River. He diligently studied the grocery business and found he had an aptitude for marketing and sales. The Wetterau Grocery Company in Desloge repeatedly offered him a position and he eventually began to work for them. He married Mary Louise Meier on August 22nd, 1937 in the Presbyterian Church of Flat River. They had a very happy marriage and when she died in 2001, they had been married for 64 years. They had two sons, Graham and Van Lees. In 1939, he made a deal to take over a little neighborhood grocery store at Chestnut and Houser streets in Flat River by assuming the debts of the store. Under his management, the store prospered. In October, 1943, he was drafted in the Army. He was accepted into Officer Candidates School and received a commission as a 2nd Lieutenant. He served in Italy in 1944 and 1945. After World War II, his business continued to grow and, in 1948, he opened a grocery store in Farmington. In the early 1950s, he was one of the first grocery merchants in the mid-west to install air conditioning and self-serve meat cases. The Progressive Grocer Magazine, which was one of the leading trade magazines in the nation, wrote a feature story about his business. In 1953, he began selling freezers and sides of beef. This developed into a large business operation of selling six months worth of food at a substantial discount along with a freezer. He also started a loan corporation to finance these sales. He expanded the business to a full line of appliances, televisions, and stereos. This led to a furniture business. He sold the grocery store in 1978 and focused on furniture, televisions and stereos, appliances, and the loan business. William Glenwood Lees first heard the gospel at age nine, professed faith in Jesus Christ, and joined the Baptist Church in Flat River. He sold salve door to door in order to buy his first Bible and read through the Bible for the first time at age nine. He taught Sunday School and served in various ways in this Baptist church. After his marriage, he joined the Presbyterian Church in Flat River. After moving to Farmington, he transferred his membership to the Farmington Presbyterian Church where he and his wife, Mary Louise, taught Sunday school. He was eventually made superintendent of the Sunday school and was ordained as an elder and elected to the session. He also served on the board of the Presbyterian Home for Children and various mission boards and projects. In the 1970s, he became active in helping Camp Penuel, the camping ministry to inner city children. He transferred his church membership to Penuel Fellowship Church. He served as an elder in this church and taught the adult Sunday school class for about 20 years. He served on the Camp Penuel board of directors since the late 1970s. He was also very active in the Gideons and helped develop that work in the Farmington area. Even though he was a successful businessman and entrepreneur, his relationship with God through faith in Jesus Christ was the top priority in his life. He gradually sold his various businesses and finally retired in 1997 at age 81. In recent years, he has enjoyed reading and his family. The family will receive friends at Cozean Memorial Chapel from 4 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, March 25, 2010. Visitation will resume at 7 a.m. on Friday, with a funeral service at 2 p.m. at the Cozean Chapel. Burial with Military Honors will follow at Hillview Memorial Gardens. Memorial gifts may be made to Camp Penuel in Ironton, Missouri. [Cozean Funeral Home]

    1. [MOSTFRAN] Bonne Terre Mine
    2. B. Warner
    3. The History Channel will feature the Bonne Terre mines tonight! History Channel features Bonne Terre Mine Published: Tuesday, March 09, 2010 / Daily Journal, Park Hills, MO The world’s largest freshwater dive resort, Bonne Terre Mine, is being featured in Life After People: Depths of Destruction which will air on the History Channel tonight (March 9, 2010) at 9 o’clock. The abandoned Bonne Terre Mine was developed by Doug and Catherine Goergens owners of West End Diving in 1978. Doug and Catherine Goergens the owners and developers of West End Diving, Bonne Terre Mine and the Maya Palms Resort turned St. Joe Lead Company’s abandoned lead mine into the world’s largest fresh water diving resort. The resort’s operation includes not only Bonne Terre Mine, but also the historic 1909 depot, a diver’s lodge, dive shop, general store and several other buildings on the mine grounds. West End Diving’s Bonne Terre Mine has been featured through the years by the likes of Jacques Cousteau, National Geographic Magazine, People Magazine, Discover Channel Good Morning America, and too many others to mention. Now Life After People: Depths of Destruction takes a look back into time to see the destruction that took place to create the world’s largest man made caverns. Bonne Terre mine was once the world’s largest lead producing mine and now nature has begun to reclaim it. There are few places where you can see what life was like then and can examine how ‘mans majesty over nature has always been an illusion’ and what will it be like when man no longer exists. Bonne Terre Mine represents such a place. Once the world’s largest lead mines, and now the world’s largest man made caverns, it is a time capsule into mining history. When the pumps were shut off, the 500 plus foot deep mine filled with natural pure spring water creating the world’s largest subterranean lake 150 feet below the surface of the earth more than 26 miles of navigable shore line. Now when you enter the mine you get an eerie feeling as the only noises you hear are the occasional tour guides relating the history of the mine and the sound of the air bubbles from the scuba divers exploring the depths of the mine underwater. Thousands of divers and non divers tour the mine annually and journey through the mine’s labyrinth or rooms and pillars and its history both above and underwater. A virtual time capsule to all wishing to examine what life is like long after the miners are gone. The History Channel will examine and focus on what life was like at Bonne Terre Mine then and now. Interviewees will include Mark Eberhart from the Colorado School of Mines and Doug and Catherine Goergens, owners and developers of the largest freshwater dive resort in the world, West End Diving’s Bonne Terre Mine ‘A Billion Gallon Lake Resort.’ The Goergens are owners of the oldest dive shop in St. Louis, which is celebrating 50 years of service to the diving industry this year. They have used West End Diving as a spring board. They not only developed, own and operate Bonne Terre Mine, but have also developed the 1909 Depot, also in Bonne Terre as a Bed & Breakfast Inn which is located within a historic train depot that is listed on the national register of historic places and the Maya Palms Resort in the last of the rustic Caribbean where divers dive on virgin pristine reefs. The Maya Palms Resort is located south of Cancun in Mahahual also known as Costa Maya, Mexico.

    3. So wish I could come, but being in CA and finances and personal situation, I cannot.   I am an WBS historian.  My kin Larkin and Lucretia Watts Jones had to come to Mo and leave NC where they had been the son and daughter of the two most wealty families and leave everything behind.  My other line was in Shannon Co before and during the WBS.  This family left in 1864 to go to St Francois and Iron Co.  This line was Conwy/Conway.   Alanna --- On Wed, 3/3/10, B.

    1. [MOSTFRAN] Seeking memories of Mary Lynn Southerland
    2. B. Warner
    3. I received the following email from a lady seeking stories about her mother, a former St. Francois County resident. If anyone has any memories to share, I'm sure she would appreciate hearing from you. Please email her directly. Her email address appears below. Thanks! Bettye From: Ellen King <ekingcomputertutor@hotmail.com> Subject: Flat River and St. Francois County Information Date: Tue, 2 Mar 2010 23:51:10 +0000 To: <bkwofc@i1.net> Good evening: My mother grew up in Desloge/Flat River. Her name was Mary Lynn Southerland. She was an incredibly wonderful mother. After I moved out on my own, she became a very good friend. She taught my friends in the Parkway school system and they, too, all loved being around her. To me she was a very special person that I still miss. The last few years of her life, she suffered a good deal of injuries, and had a very, very difficult home life her last few years that probably not many people knew about. In thinking back on all she gave to the students she taught, and her peers whom she taught with, I would very much like to find out if anyone left in Flat River remembers her and can share memories of her with me. I have fond memories of Flat River, and my grandfather playing basketball or tennis with us by the Elementary school in Leadington. Anyway, if anyone has memories of my mother they could share, I would appreciate it. Thank you. Sincerely, Ellen KIng

    3. I found my Christel Callahan who married a Jim Vance on his site.  That is all I know of them in the public view.  Christel was my grandmother's sister.   I also found other family members on his site.   Alanna --- On Wed, 1/13/10, Ruth Carver <sisterruthie@hughes.net> wrote:   Brian Oster's website is vienici.com   Good marriage record website.
