First of all let me say, the surnames I was dealing with while doing the following were not ones from this list. I'm just passing on a valuable inexpensive place to possibly find death certificates and wills. There are people who go into genealogy looking for money, that would be my friend D. There are people who do it looking for the pieces of their family quilt and the stories of the lives that wove together to make us. That would be me. Sometimes the two work hand in hand. No, I didn't find great wealth, I just found where my grandmother wasn't getting all her mineral right pay outs like she should and because I knew how to document genealogy I was able to help her get the back money owed her a few years ago. Just prior to her death she spoke of some other rights, from another family member that she might should have inherited. She made my db and I promise to check on it before she died. We did. By checking missingmoney.com and foundmoney.com we discovered there was definitely some on hold, but whether or not it was hers we weren't sure. One of the big sticking points was the ancestor's will. It would tell exactly who was suppose to get what percentage of those mineral rights. Unfortunately they died in another state, and despite all of our requests for look-ups no one had to date volunteered to check for us, even for a reasonable fee. So yesterday my db and I went back to the county courthouse where the mineral right and property records were kept and started digging through the books trying to figure out if maybe those rights had in fact left our branch of the family years ago. This was our fourth trip to do this and we'd searched every record, so we thought, each time. We had even checked in the will and probate department to see if a copy of the out of state will had been filed there because of property owned in this state. We had been told no. As in all government offices the right hand apparently does not tell the left hand what they are doing. Yesterday, quite by accident my db turned to the next page following an oil lease and there a page away was the will we had been hunting for for two years. Not in the will and probate area, but in LAND records. Further searching turned up FIVE death certificates for various family members that I would have normally had to pay $5 to $15 a piece for through the health department of the various states they came from (TX, OK, AR, CA and CO) I paid $1 each for xeroxes, which is all I really need for my documentation, and $1 a p age for the will that proved that the mineral rights did NOT go to my grandmother. So if you are at a dead end on finding a will or death record, check land and mineral right records. You just might find what you are looking for. So, even though that 1/8th of the mineral right doesn't go to us as her heirs, I found some valuable genealogy info that solved a mystery for me, and got it far cheaper than if I'd gone through normal channels. Oh yeah, while on missingmoney.com, we found where my brother had some utility deposits from several years ago coming back to him. It wasn't a lot, but it will cover the $20 we spent on copies! Jan who thought this important enough to share in OK

You know. I am pretty sensitive to any one trying to put ads on genealogy sites, but was not with the Van Cleave post. seemed more an opportunity to get something home to family I pick up old photos at second hand stores, those with names on back, and post to various genealogy sites. I don't mention they are free, just that i am trying to find family member. If I say free all sorts may offer to take off my hands. so far only one person got upset at me My limit to buy is $3, unless good family photo of several then I go to $5. So I have posted a few of some more expensive I have left in stores. and I have posted some of those. not trying to make money. but it is sort of advertising I guess

PIONEER’S NOTE BOOK Boilers were so thick at Cedarville in Surprise Valley when the whites settled there in 1867, it was really dangerous night or day to move without a stout stick in your hand. a local was made a drawing with the label welcome to our city long before that slogan was known generally throughout our land. The picture was of a scared woman calling for help, a rattlesnake spitting through its mouth and singing with its tail and grew out the following episode. One day Mrs. Cressler, wife of a local merchant opened the trap door from the kitchen to the cellar under the house and started down after some supplies, it being the custom in Indian Countries for protection sake to have your cellar under your house. She found a rattlesnake had found an opening under the foundation of the house and was there spitting at her. Screaming, she ran to the store near by and her husband killed the snake and by putting a stone foundation under the house kept them out after that though for years it was dangerous to move around in the open especially at night. Telling the snake stories on the round up in Massacre Valley east of Surprise and in Nevada, the cattleman rested around the campfire. As they drove their herds from the Nevada desert to the pleasant well watered meadows of Surprise Valley in the fall of 1897. Included in the number was William Cressler of the banking and stock raising firm of Cressler and Bonner. Extremely nervous the stories worked on him until he left the crowd and got into his blankets away from the fire but on the dry ground. A cattleman in the crowd had placed the dried up skin of a rattlesnake around a horse hair rope at the farther side of Cresslers’ bed and as Cressler began to doze and the fire and conversation died down, he carefully approached Cressler’s bed slipped his hand under the covers and judiciously worked that old horse hair rope back and forth until Cressler reaching out felt the snake skin and with a yell three the covers back and beat it for a safer place on the top of a wagon. Is friends passed the bedding to him and he slept on the top of the chuck wagon all night and never could be persuaded to sleep on the ground again. Rattlesnakes live in the earth and when the earth moves by earthquakes or blasting or anything else snakes move. Railroad contractors know this as do highway and reservoir builders. Modoc Indians claim the snakes not the soldiers won the Modoc War. In this they may be right but it was the cannonading made the snakes move to after all it was white man’s magic won the war. When Modoc County built the new grade up Pit River Canyon north of Alturas, snakes were so thick and the crew lost so much time by men throwing down their tools to kill the snakes that finally a man known as the snake man was hired, whose sole duty was to kill the snakes while others worked. That man did not like the term snake killer nor snake man and finally quit to get rid of the name and left the country. Jules Monchamp, came out from France. He was a splendid gardener. He started the French Hotel in Cedarville at the corner of Main and Townsend streets in Cedarville, which had a good business, as he and his wife knew how to handle a hotel. He had a fine garden and ran particularly strong to watermelons, which caused his down fall for it was all his life was worth to protect them. Stealing got good or rather bad for him, he finally armed himself and slept in the midst of the patch. About the fifth night, some of the boys filled him up with French wine and when he dropped off into slumbers proceeded to rifle the patch piling the melons up on his front porch to show their good wishes and then to carefully draw his pillow from under his head and substitute a small watermelon covered with sacks. The language used by Jules in the morning was like the language used by Cappy Ricks in abusing his son-in-law to be before outwitting him in the Panama deal and not fit to be used in the presence of good members of the church. ~~~~~~ Billie C. & Anita 'Jean' Reynolds Family Researcher of "The Last Frontier" Modoc County, California --- Our outgoing mail is checked by ZoneAlarm AntiVirus.
