    3. Historical musing at the start of a new year. U.S. statistics for 1902.... The average life expectancy in the US was forty-seven (47). Only 14 Percent of the homes in the US had a bathtub. Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone. A three-minute call from Denver to New York City cost eleven dollars. There were only 8,000 cars in the US and only 144 miles of paved roads. The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph. Alabama, Mississippi, Iowa, and Tennessee were each more heavily populated than California. With a mere 1.4 million residents, California was only the 21st most populous state in the Union. The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower. The average wage in the US was 22 cents an hour. The average US worker made between $200 and $400 per year. A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year, a dentist $2,500 per year, a veterinarian between $1,500 and $4,000 per year, and a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year. More than 95 percent of all births in the US took place at home. Ninety percent of all US physicians had no college education. Instead, they attended medical schools, many of which were condemned in the press and by the government as "substandard." Sugar cost four cents a pound. Eggs were fourteen cents a dozen. Coffee cost fifteen cents a pound. Most women only washed their hair once a month and used borax or egg yolks for shampoo. Canada passed a law prohibiting poor people from entering the country for any reason. The five leading causes of death in the US were: 1. Pneumonia and influenza 2. Tuberculosis 3. Diarrhea 4. Heart disease 5. Stroke The American flag had 45 stars. Arizona, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Hawaii and Alaska hadn't been admitted to the Union yet. The population of Las Vegas, Nevada was 30. Crossword puzzles, canned beer, and iced tea hadn't been invented. There were no Mother's Day or Father's Day. One in ten US adults couldn't read or write. Only 6 percent of all Americans had graduated from high school. Marijuana, heroin, and morphine were all available over the counter at corner drugstores. According to one pharmacist, "Heroin clears the complexion, gives buoyancy to the mind, regulates the stomach and the bowels, and is, in fact, a perfect guardian of health." Eighteen percent of households in the US had at least one full-time servant or domestic. There were only about 230 reported murders in the entire US. Just think what it will be like in another 100 years. It boggles the mind! Rose

    1. [NEWGEN] Lake County, Ohio Tombstones laid to rest...
    2. Bunny
    3. The following article made the front page of The News-Herald on October 19, 2002 in... Lake County, Willoughby, OH email www.news-herald-com. by staff writer.. John Arthur Hutchinson There are two pictures in the article. I hope someone out there can make a connection and claim this family.......... If you do, you can probably write to the News-Hearld and I would like you to let me know also. Happy hunting ! ! ! Bunny TOMBSTONES REST AS A FAMILY... It has been 187 years since little Sally Jewell died, but her memory was kept alive Friday. So was the memory of her brother, Whitney, a sibling Sally never knew because he was born after she died. The children were remembered because their tombstones were officially laid to rest beside their parents at Painesville Township Cemetery, also referred to as Blish Cemetery, on Mentor Avenue. The stones were discovered in 2001 on a 30 acre property in Concord Township set to be developed by Hermitage Bluffs Subdivision. Both stones were found broken and lying on the ground in the woods. No remains were ever located at the site, especially because so much time had passed since the children died. The developer of the Concord Township property, Don Whitaker, sought to protect the tombstone site from development until a permaent decision was made about what to do with the headstones. Whitaker and genealogical officals tracked down documetatiomn from Morley Library in Painesville and discovered the children's parents were burried at the Painesville Township cemetery. Their father, Luther Jewell, died in 1860 at age 71, and mother, Olive Jewell, died in 1871 at age 80. After a lengthy search, no kin of the Jewells could be located. It was decided the two small children's tombstones would be repaired by the Potti Monument Co. in Painesville and placed alongside their parents remais in Painesville Township. Historians, members of the Lake County Genealogical Society and Morley Library in Painesville also tried to find out the religious affiliation of the Jewell family, but were unsuccessful. The Rev. Norm Davis of St. Gabriel Catholic Church in Concord Township was asked to perform the short ceremony when the tombstones were finally laid to rest. "Sally and Whitney Jewell were lost in death as they were lost in life at a very young age," Davis said while standing beside the childrens graves. "Today, we are trying to restore the family unity to two small cildren that have been away from family for almost two centuries. The life which these children received from their parents, Luther and Olive, is not destroyed by death." Davis sprinkled dirt on the tombstones from the Concord Township parcel where the tombstones were originally discovered. Cynthia Turk of the Lake County Genealogical Society, was glad to have some sort of closure. "Genealogically, if these stones were gone there'd be no record of them," Turk said. "Their family suffered a loss and went to the expense to remember them." Whitaker said everything has worked out for everyone's best interest. "We always intended to do the right thing and never intended to desecrate the stones," he said. SHARING works.... try it..... just once... you could reap the benefits ! ! ! ! !.
