I recieved a copy of a small (pamphlet sized) book which had been privately printed by George Buck in 1906 a couple of summers back when I visited family in Clymer. I just scanned the text of the book in case anyone wants it I have included the text here or you can find it in Word 2000 format at http://f1.pg.briefcase.yahoo.com/bc/tet3@pacbell.net/lst?.dir=/Bock&.view=l I will try to get the pictures from the book scanned and make them available if anyone wants them. Tim LORENZO BOCK AND HIS DESCENDANTS. A FAMILY HISTORY. EDITED BY GEORGE BUCK MINA. NEW YORK. 1906. The Dorman Printing Co., Sherman, N. Y. LORENZO BOCK LORENZO BOCK was born in Germany in January, 1800, and married Margaret Stubenrauch. They emigrated to the United States in 1846, and he died at Mina, N. Y., February 11, 1868. Children : Margaret Barbara, born July 9, 1825; married Phillip Pfeiffer; died June 14, 1902. John, born February 27, 1829; died May 8, 1905. Lorenzo, born August 15, 1830; died February 28, 1897. George, born July 12, 1834. Nickolaus, born August 3, 1836; died October 31, 1872. Julia Dorothea, born May 30, 1839; married George Adam Himelein. Lorenzo Bock was born in the dukedom of Saxony in Germany. He was the oldest of five children, all boys. His father was an innkeeper of the village, and as the boy grew up he was led quite naturally into the cooper's trade, at which he became very skilled. On reaching manhood he married Margaret Stubenrauch, left his father's home and moved to a small village of thirty-six families about twenty miles north of Coburg. Here his six children were born. In 1846, in company with other friends and relatives, they left their home, on the second of May, and started for the United States. The party travelled by wagon to Coburg the first day. From there they proceeded to Bremen, three hundred miles distant. There were no railroads so that the whole distance had to be traversed in a covered wagon. There were sixty persons in the party with all their house-hold goods. The three hundred miles was, however, made in thirteen days. After a two weeks' stay at Bremen, the party embarked on a ship called the "Christopher Humboldt. " During the time the ship was being loaded, the emigrants sat in wonder on the shore looking out upon the waste of sea and sky which they were to tempt in their search for better things. After their two weeks delay, they embarked on the voyage of six weeks, which finally brought them into New York harbor. They were, we are told, a joyful and happy company, when they once more stood on the dry land. Father Bock and his family' left the ship on the morning of their arrival and the following night started by steamboat from New York for Albany, and from there by canal to Buffalo. The canal journey to a whole week and afforded ample time to the travellers for planning what should be done in the new home to which they were coming. From Buffalo, they went by steamboat to Barcelona near Westfield, New York, at that time a harbor, though long since disused. The remains of the pier are, however, still to be found. When they reached there, darkness and their inability to speak English made it difficult to find the place to which they had been directed to go, but at last they succeeded in finding the house of Mrs. Lodge, a German woman, with whom they stayed. This was the night of July 12, 1846, the author's birthday. The following day Lorenzo with his son John and son-in-law, Philip Pfeiffer, walked eighteen miles to Mina, Chautauqua County, where they were to make their new home and where they found old neighbors already settled. Their goods and families were, bought later by Thomas Baker, driving the team of Isaac Relf, the storekeeper at Mina. After a short stay with friends, Lorenzo moved into h house at Mina, owned by Mr. Relf. There he lived till April 1, 1847, when he moved to a farm of sixty acres one half mile south of Mina Corners. There he settled down, farming and practising his trade of cooperage as occasion offered. A great deficiency in the family life was filled after a few years of pioneering work on this farm. The godly efforts of a sainted man of God resulted in the awakening of the whole family. The Rev. John Willem Dunnewold of Clymer, organized a Reformed Church at Mina. Lorenzo and his wife were two of the nine original members. Father Bock became the first deacon. He was always faithful to his charge, trying ever to do his Master's will and bringing the Gospel to those about him. His last sickness was brought about by exposure in attendance at a funeral in the church and he passed away in his sixty-eighth year, February 11, 1868. Margaret Bock, his wife, survived him. She lived with her son, Lorenzo, in the old home for many years. She died at the ripe old age of eighty-four, loved and cherished by all her children, all of whom survived her. Of her it was most fittingly said "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth; yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them." NOTE—The following changes were made by the children of Lorenzo Bock in the family name for convenience sake: John spelled the name Boke, as did also Nickolaus. George spelled it Buck, while Lorenzo, Jr. kept it unchanged. THE PHIFER FAMILY NOTE—The name Pfeiffer was anglicized by Philip's children into Phifer. MARGARET BARBARA BOCK, wife of Philip Pfeiffer, oldest child of Lorenzo and Margaret Bock. Born July 9, 1825; died June 14, 1902. Children : Margaret, born October 14, 1845; married George Wilkins.

Mary, born August 14, 1865; died December 8, 1888. Margaret Barbara Bock Phifer, the oldest child of Lorenzo and Margaret Bock, was born in Germany. The first years of her life, until 1846, were spent there. There she received her education in the common schools, making excellent use of her opportunities. She married Philip Pfeiffer, a young man of exactly her own age and from her own town. After one child, Margaret, had been born to them, they decided to emigrate to the United States with Lorenzo Bock and his family. They accordingly started and arrived at Mina, New York, in the month of July, 1846. During the first winter in the new land, they lived with Lorenzo Bock, but in the spring of 1847 they moved into a house at Mina, owned by Isaac Relf, by whom Philip Pfeiffer was employed; The next year they spent at Ripley in the employ of Mr. Dinsmore, but in 1849, the family returned to Mina, and settled on a small farm of their own. In a few years after the establishment of their home, a Reformed Church, which took a very im! portant place in the family's history, was organized at Mina Corners. This was in 1856. Rev. John Willem Dunnewold, who was settled at Clymer, was the organizer. "He was an earnest preacher of the gospel, without educational advantage; a burning love for Christ and souls more than supplied its place. He was unequaled as a pastor. He had peculiar ability in enforcing divine truth in reference to the various duties and experiences of those among whom he lived." Barbara Pfeiffer was one of the original founders of this church. Her husband joined the church soon after its establishment. They were soon distinguished for their faithfulness in attendance and for their unstinted hospitality to those who came to minister at the little church. Twelve children were born to this family, three of whom died in infancy. Mary, the youngest, lived through the days of her youth and then passed peacefully away. Philip lived on the old farm until 1894, when they spent a while with their son, Frank, at Mina Corners. They settled later in a small house next the schoolhouse. Barbara's health failed here and they removed to Sherman, where with her son, Amos, her last days were spent. She died June 14, 1902. For the most of her days she had been robust and healthy. Her delight was to render assistance and show kindly favors to neighbors and those about her. She loved truth and righteousness. She was firm in reproving what seemed to her wrong. Her kindness of heart, her earnest Christian character and the faithfulness of her service to her Master, were her distinguishing characteristics. After the dissolution of the Reformed Church, she joined the English Methodist Church of the village and was one of its staunch and cherished me! mbers for years. Her husband, Philip, survived her and though in his eighty-second year, is quite active and energetic. After the death of his wife he continued to reside with his son at Sherman, N. Y., until about January 1, 1906, when he went to live with his daughter, Margaret, at West Mill Creek, Erie County, Pennsylvania. MARGARET PHIFER, wife of George Wilkins.

Herman, born January 20, 1877. Children by the second marriage: Alfred Henry, born September 3, 1882. George Weber, born January 21, 1885. Lorenzo Bock was born in Germany and came to America in his 16th year. He remembered very vividly the experiences of his school-life in the old country and used to relate them with great amusement. Music was one of the branches taught and the knowledge of it that he acquired proved of great advantage in the Reformed Church of Mina, which was built adjoining the old homestead property. He remained with his parents on this farm working it, as the other boys left home, and also practising cooperage. In 1854, he married Margaret Keyser, at Clymer Hill. His wife was born at Wurtemburg in Germany, in 1834. She was orphaned early and lived with an aunt, Mrs. George Klinshrote. When eleven years old, she came to America and for a time worked for an English family named Hustis, where she learned to speak English as well as her native tongue. Lorenzo and his wife settled with his parents, to take care of them in their declining years. Their children numbered twelve, four of whom died ! in infancy and one, Sarah, in her tenth year. In 1880, on March 4, Margaret Keyser Bock died after an illness of one week. At this time the aged grandmother, Margaret Stubenrauch Bock, was still living and Lydia took charge of her father's house until the grandmother's death at the age of 84 years. In 1881, Lorenzo Bock married again, taking for his we, Mary A. Bechtel, a niece of Mrs. George Buck. She had two children, Alfred Henry and George Weber. Lorenzo died on February 28, 1897, and was followed in the same year; November 29, by his second wife. He was active to the last, never losing the strength of his love for music and and for flowers. And now we come to the close of the life of this member of the Bock family. The father, who has borne the trials and burdens for so many years, has been called to his eternal rest; he had always been robust and healthy, and being of an industrious disposition, he was always engaged in beautifying the home or helping others when called upon. Always kind and cheerful, he was loved by all he met. In trouble he always looked on the bright side. Firm in his integrity, a lover of truth and right; in the church he was a faithful member, always trying to do his Father's will, and having tried to walk in the steps of the Saviour, he was not only prepared when the sudden summons came, but was longing to meet his Master and the loved ones gone on before. God grant that the prayers he so often uttered for his dear ones may be answered; that we may meet an unbroken family around our Father's throne in Heaven. ELIZABETH, the oldest child of Lorenzo and Margaret Bock, married James Willard in 1878. She had one son by this marriage, Jesse Lorenzo, born July 23, 1881; died 1898. In 1882, her husband died. Elizabeth removed with her boy to Sherman, where she resided until her second marriage in 1889. She married Charles Mellnitz of Naumburg, N. Y. She removed with him to his home at Naumburg where she lost her boy in 1898. Here two other children were born: Howard C., born June 11, 1894. Sarah E., born May 21, 1896. WILLIAM BOCK, third child of Lorenzo and Margaret Bock, married Annie J. Boorman, of Sherman, N. Y., February 22, 1882. He and his wife settled on a farm west of Sherman, but later removed to a place of their own, two and a half miles southeast of Sherman. Their children are: Newton Hiram, born March 18, 1885. Walter Everett, born April 30, 1887. Charles William, born June 18, 1888. Harriet Helen, born September 8, 1891. Ethel Alice, born November 21, 1893. Joseph Arthur, born February 8, 1897. Anna Jeannette, born April 20, 1901. LYDIA, fourth child, married Henry Voigt, of Sherman, N. Y. She lived with her husband for six years near Sherman and then went West to Davenport, Nebraska. Here they bought a large farm and built a fine house. Their children are: Herbert Lee, born January 16, 1885. Harry Edward, born December 12, 1886. Hattie Edith, born December 12, 1886. Mabel Margaret, born November 9, 1888. Walter Ervin, born March 22, 1892. Edna May, born September 19, 1893. John Lorenzo, born April 22, 1895. Mildred Fern, born July 15, 1900. JOHN SAMUEL, fifth child of Lorenzo, went to California and there married Alice Tehan, of Alameda County. Their children are: Marguerite Ellen, born December 15, 1895. John William, born April 30, 1897. Beatrice Leonard, born September 23, 1898. LOVENUS, sixth child of Lorenzo, went to California with his brother John. After ten years he returned and bought a farm at Mina. He married Ida May Barden, April 21, 1887. They have two children: Harold Lorenzo, born April 10, 1898. Mary Margaret, born October 30, 1903; died November 20, 1904. MINNIE AND CAROLINE both studied to become teachers. Minnie graduated from the State Normal School at Fredonia in January, 1899, and Carrie in June, 1898. Minnie E. Bock married Isaac C. Baker, September 14, 1904, and moved with him to Geneva, Filmore county, Nebraska, and there they reside; he working at his trade as carpenter. Both of them are faithful members of the M. E. Church at their new home. HERMAN was three years old when he lost his mother. He studied at the State Normal School and afterwards worked at the Brooks Locomotive Works in Dunkirk. On October 6, 1900, he married Mantie E. Kingsley of Fredonia and settled there. He became a carpenter, but later went into a leading hardware store at that place. THE BUCK FAMILY GEORGE BUCK, fourth child of Lorenzo and Margaret Bock. Born in Germany, July 12, 1834; married November 19, 1855, to Elizabeth Bechtel, (born November 28, 1834; died June 16, 1899.) Children: Philip, born August 31, 1856. Silas, born March 11, 1863; died February 16, 1865. Louisa A., born September 13, 1858; married May 25, 1876, to Rev. H. W. Warnshuis. George Buck was born in Germany, July 12, 1834, and spent his early childhood there. In school he was noted for his diligence, good behavior and high standing. In his twelfth year he crossed the ocean with his parents. The final stage of the journey, from Buffalo to Barcelona by steamer, was made on his twelfth birthday. The greater part of his time, during his youth, was spent in working for neighboring farmers. As an illustration of the few comforts in the life of a young man "working out" at his time, we quote from his own narration: "I was seldom allowed a candle. One Saturday evening I had gone from home to call on another family after my day's work was done. Upon returning at about ten, I found all lights extinguished and though I searched a long time not a candle could be found. The next day would be Sunday and I needed a shave. I considered it wrong to do unnecessary work on the Sabbath, so after my unsuccessful search, I raised the curtain and shaved by the light of! the moon." He joined the Reformed Church in 1854 and was always an active, exemplary member. In 1855 he married Elizabeth Bechtel, a young woman of sterling good sense, an ideal housekeeper, a most devoted Christian and a loving wife and mother. The young married couple settled on a piece of woodland, lot 19, southeast of the centre of the township. In 1860 they removed to Oil Creek, Pa., where they remained till the outbreak of the Civil War. George Buck enlisted, August 20, 1862, in Co. A, 16th Pennsylvania Cavalry, and was with the Army of the Potomac. In 1863 he was discharged for disability and became a pensioner. In 1867 he returned to Mina with his family. His wife, Elizabeth, after bringing up her two children, loved and cherished by six grandchildren, fell into a lingering illness which resulted in her death in June, 1899. Her death brought deep sorrow into the hearts of all who knew her. She is survived by her husband, who is loved and respected by his fellow cit! izens. He was always a stanch Republican, much interested in politics. He is a total abstainer. During a summer in the ore region of Michigan, he acquired the tobacco habit, but in later years gave it up entirely on reaching the conviction that it was a wasteful and unclean habit. His own words express the rule of his life: "The special features of my life are to do good unto all and every one with whom I come in contact, living for my Lord and Master all my days, always remembering what he has done and is doing for me. " PHILIP BOCK, his oldest child, was born at Mina. He married Anna Mellnitz of Naumburg, N.Y. in 1881. They settled in his parents home at Mina where their three children were born. Philip Bock from 1892 to 1898 held the office of assessor. In 1887 he and his wife united with the Methodist Church of Mina, and in 1893 and 1900 Emma and Minnie followed their parents example. The children of this union are: Addie E., born June 28, 1882. Emma L., born July 9, 1887. Minnie A., born September 23, 1889. Addie E. Bock married Fred A. Dean, January 13, 1902. They have a nice home at Findley Lake, N.Y., where he works at his trade as barber. He also deals in candies, writing materials, papers and magazines, tobacco and cigars. LOUISA, third child of George and Elizabeth Buck, was also born at Mina. Her girlhood days were spent at home. In 1876 she married Rev. H. W. Warnshuis, who had been supplying the Reformed Church at Mina during his summer vacation. After their marriage, they remained at Mina for a year, Mr. Warnshuis meanwhile supplying the Presbyterian Church at Wattsburg. In 1877 he was called to the Reformed Church at Naumburg, and while here Libbie was born. In 1880 he removed to West Leyden for six months, and then went as a home missionary to Lennox, South Dakota. Here George was born. In 1883 he went to Centerville, about ten miles from Lennox, and there built a church and parsonage. Here Libbie united with the church. In the fall of 1891, he accepted a call to the Presbyterian Church of Stoneboro, Pa., a mining town on Sandy Lake. Here Paul was born and George joined the church. The work here was wonderfully blessed. Three charges, however, —Fairfield, New Lebanon and Stonebo! ro--with a mission at Hall's Shaft, made the work too heavy for Mr. Warnshuis, so in 1897 he accepted a call to the Presbyterian Church at Harbor Creek, Pa. The children of this family are: Libbie Anna, born October 31, 1877. George Arthur, born September 18, 1883. Paul Livingston, born November 16, 1894. Libbie studied at the Stoneboro School under Prof. Lacky, and graduated in 1893, after which she studied music and made such progress that she was enabled to teach as occasion offered. She became a leader in the young people's work of her father's church. George entered the High School of Erie, Pa., and Paul began his studies at Harbor Creek when the family removed there. Libbie A. Warnshuis moved with her parents from Harbor Creek, Pa., to Covode, Indiana county, Pa., in 1903. Rev. Warnshuis supplied three churches with the gospel message of salvation, Libbie being organist in the church where they reside. She was married to Charles A. Neff, June 30, 1904. Mr. Neff and George A. Warnshuis, brother of Mrs. Neff, are keeping a grocery store at that place. On August 13, 1905, a son was born to Charles A. and Libbie A. Neff, and named Francis Arthur. THE BOKE FAMILY NICKOLAUS BOKE, fifth child of Lorenzo and Margaret Bock. Born in Germany, August 3, 1836; married December 1, 1868; died October 31, 1872. Child: George Henry, born November 11, 1869. Nickolaus Boke was born in Germany in 1836, and was ten years old at the time of the entrance of the family into the United States. In his early years he attended the district school during the winter time and in summer worked on the farms of the neighborhood. He remained at Mina until 1859, when with his older brother, John, he left New York State and travelled by wagon train to California. The party drove a herd of cattle the whole distance over the plains and when they reached their destination, Nickolaus remained a whole year on the prairies herding the cattle. He was visited but three times during this year by his brother, to bring him provisions and inspect the stock. After this lonesome year, he settled in the mining town of Dutch Flat, Cal., engaging at first in placer mining; but he soon left this work and entered a large dry goods store as clerk. After three years here, he visited the old home at Mina. On his return to California, he entered the same business. He m! et Orange Ann Tillotson, and after a brief courtship, married her in 1868. Soon after his marriage, his health failed in the confinement of his business, and on the doctor's advice, he left it and bought an interest in a lumber business. But this he soon relinquished, and on October 31, 1872, he died at San Francisco, leaving a widow and a son three years old. Orange Ann Tillotson, his wife, was born in Cazenovia, Madison Co. , N. Y., August 20, 1852. She came to California in 1867 and was married to Nickolaus Boke in 1872. GEORGE HENRY, the only child of this union, was born at Dutch Flat. He sought an education with energy when he grew to man's estate. He entered and graduated from the Normal School at San Jose in 1887, and from the University of California in 1894. After his college course he became superintendent of schools at San Rafael, Cal., for three years and fellow in jurisprudence at Harvard for two. In July, 1900, he became a member of the faculty in the department of law at the University of California. On January 31, 1895, he married Grace Sophia Bray of San Francisco. His wife was born February 19, 1872, at Morisania, New York City. There are three children: Eliot, born August 11, 1895. Marian, born August 3, 1897. Charis, born November 15, 1898.

Julia Dorothea Bock was born in Saxe-Coburg, Germany, in 1839, and she was therefore seven years old when the family emigrated to the United States. Her early years were spent in the old home at Mina. She became a member of the Reformed Church and was faithful in her attendance and work. In 1857 she married George Adam Himelein and settled with him on a farm three-quarters of a mile east of Findley Lake. Here her children were born. Of these there were eleven, one of whom died in infancy. ROXANA, the third child of Julia Himelein, was the first to marry. She married Henry Weaver. Her children are: Addie Denelda, born February 17, 1886; died in infancy. Mary Evelyn, born March 23, 1887. Leland Eugene, born October 26, 1888. Willard Perry, born February 18, 1891.

The other children, with the exception of Herman and Rosa, left home; David to farm, and Silas to marry Hattie Middough, January 21, 1903. They have one child, Vera Pearl, born May 21, 1904. Levant took a four years' course at Fredonia Normal School, graduating with honor, then entered business at Jamestown, and later at Findley Lake, with W. L. Nuttall. William and Levant Himelein have formed a partnership and are at present engaged in the grocery and general store business at Delevan, Cattaraugus county, N. Y. Eliza is employed by them as bookkeeper. George Adam Himelein, the father of this family, now in his eighty-fourth year, takes an active interest in the affairs of his community, church and home; and though not able to engage as of old in the heavier labors of farm life, is still able to cart the milk to the factory and attend to the lighter work about the farm and home, which he seems to enjoy. He has spent his rugged manhood in the service of One who will reward him at the setting of the sun, with a glorious and eternal rest.

Sue, Yes, the Bly cemetery was also called the Gardner-Bly cemetery for a time. It's on land originally purchased by Asa Bly from the Holland Land Co. Asa's wife Desire was the first burial in the cemetery in 1820. While Asa never lived there his sons settled on the land ca 1809. Asa's great grandson, William H. Bly married Mabel Gardner in 1890. Her parents Frank and Ida Gardner were buried there as well as other families related by marriage to the Blys. Evidently this is how the Gardner name became attached to the cemetery.
