Hello List: After looking for years, I have finally located the death date of Catherine Casner/Carsner. She died November 21, 1905. While most documents spell her last name as CASNER, it is often found spelled CARSNER. The husband of Catherine died in 1890. At the time of her death, seven of her twelve children were still living; she was living with her married daughter Margaret 'Maggie' Rose Boyce. I sent a query a lookup volunteer to Cowlitz County to see if there might be a death notice/obituary in the newspaper at Kalama, WA for the death of Catherine Casner/Carsner. Unfortunately, according to the information received from the volunteer, the archives for the Kalama Bulletin located in Cowlitz County were destroyed in a flood in the 60s or 70s. Does anyone on this list know if the Kalama Bulletin for the time frame of 1905 might be on microfilm at the State Archives for WA. Thanks for response. Liz Freeman In OK!

After searching for years, I have finally located the death date of Catherine Casner/Carsner. Her date of death is November 21, 1905. While most documents spell the last name CASNER, living descendants spell the name CARSNER. I am wondering if there is anyone on this list who might have access to the Kalama, WA newspapers for 1905 and would be so kind to check to see if there is an obituary or death notice for Catherine? Seven of her twelve children were living at the time. Her husband died in 1890. I would like to obtain a copy of the obit if one is located and would be most appreciative of any assistance.

Here you go; lots of good stuff here. There are also two entries for him in Ancestries World Tree with children's names. Gloria Lester >>^. .^<< The Twentieth Century Biographical Dictionary of Notable Americans: Volume X S Stevens, John page 17 STEVENS, Isaac Ingalls, soldier, was born in Andover, Mass., March 25, 1818; son of Isaac and Hannah (Cummings) Stevens; grandson of Jonathan and Susannah (Bragg) Stevens, and a descendant of John Stevens, one of the founders of Andover, 1640, who came from Cavesham, Oxford county, England, in 1638. He was graduated from the U.S. Military academy in 1889, and was commissioned 2d lieutenant and assigned to the corps of engineers. He served as assistant engineer of the construction of Fort Adams, Newport, R.I, 1839-41; of the repairs of Fairhaven battery, New Bedford Harbor, Mass.; was promoted 1st lieutenant, July 1, 1840; was married, Sept. 8, 1841, to Margaret Lyman, daughter of Benjamin and Harriet (Lyman) Hazard of Newport, R.I. He directed the repairs of the defenses of Portsmouth Harbor, N.H., 1842-46; and was superintending engineer in the construction of Fort Knox, Penobscot river, Maine, 1843-46. He was adjutant of engineers at the siege of Vera Cruz, Mexico, in the battles of Cerro Gordo, Contreras, Churubusco, Molino del Rey, Chapultepec, and in the assault and capture of the city of Mexico, where he was severely wounded. He was brevetted captain, Aug. 20, 1847, for Contreras and Churubusco, and major, Sept. 13, 1847, for Chapultepec. He was engaged as superintending engineer at Fort Knox, Maine, Portsmouth, N.H., and at Forts Pulaski and Jackson, Ga.; was in charge of the coast survey office, Washington, D.C., 1849-53; a member of the commission for improving the James and Appomattox rivers, Va., and Cape Fear river, N.C., in 1853. He resigned from the army, March 16, 1853, to accept the governorship of Washington Territory and charge of the exploration of the northern route for the Pacific railroad. He surveyed a belt of the country 200 miles wide, from St. Paul, Minn., to Puget Sound, and demonstrated the practicability of that route and the navigability for steamboats of the upper Columbia and Missouri. He was the first governor of Washington Territory, 1853-57; and superintendent of Indian affairs and commissioner to make treaties with over 30,000 Indians of the extreme northwest. He extinguished the Indian title to 150,000 square miles of territory, and instituted a beneficent policy for civilizing these tribes, who in 1903 were living under his treaties, and had made considerable progress in civilized habits. He also made a treaty with the warlike and hostile Blackfeet in October, 1855, and between them and the hunting tribes of Washington and Oregon, crossing the Rocky Mountains twice on this service. The disaffected Indians of these territories, having broken out in war against the whites while he was absent on this expedition, he forced his way across the Rocky Mountains in midwinter, called out the entire male population of his territory as volunteers, and waged so vigorous a campaign against the hostiles that before the close of 1856 they were subdued. He arrested certain white men, former employees of the Hudson Bay company, suspected of aiding the hostiles, and when Chief-Justice Edward Lander issued a writ of habeas corpus for their release, proclaimed martial law over Pierce and Thurston counties, arrested the chief justice and held him a prisoner until the close of the war. He resigned as governor in August, 1857, and was delegate from Washington Territory in the 35th and 36th congresses, 1857-61. In congress he vindicated his course as governor, caused his Indian treaties to be ratified, and the scrip he had issued to pay the expenses of the war to be assumed by the government. In the presidential contest of 1860 he was chairman of the Democratic national executive committee and conducted the canvass for the Breckinridge and Lane ticket. But when the southern leaders [p.17]declared for the secession he offered his services to the Federal government, and was appointed colonel of the 79th Highlanders, New York volunteers; brigadier-general, Sept. 28, 1861, and major-general, July 4th, 1862. He commanded the 3d brigade, Smith's division at the Chain Bridge in front of Washington in September and October, the 2d brigade of the Port Royal expedition in November, occupied Port Royal and adjacent islands in South Carolina, fought the action of Port Royal Ferry, Jan. 1, 1862, commanded the 1st division of the army under General Benham against Charleston, and led the main column at the battle of James Island, June 16, 1862, assaulting Fort Lamar at daylight with his entire command, but was repulsed with a loss of 600 killed and wounded, nearly all in twenty minutes. Transferred to Virginia, his division formed the 1st division of the 9th corps, on the organization of that corps at Newport News in July, 1862. Thence marching up the Rappahannock he joined Pope's army on the Rapidan, participated in the disastrous campaign that ensued, and distinguished himself at the second battle of Bull Run. At the battle of Chantilly he hurled his scanty force of six regiments upon Stonewall Jackson's corps as they were advancing to seize the main line of retreat in rear of Pope's army, with such force and determination that he drove back the center division, threw them into confusion and frustrated the movement, saving the Union army from a great disaster. While leading his old regiment, the 79th Highlanders, in this successful charge, he fell with the colors in his hand. He is buried in Newport, R.I., where the city erected a monument to him. His life, written by his son, may be found in the public libraries. He is the author of: Campaigns of the Rio Grande and of Mexico; Report of Northern Pacific. Railroad Exploration (3 vols., published by congress), pamphlets upon the Northern Route, the Northwest, Letter to Emigrants, etc. He died near Chantilly, Va., Sept. 1, 1862.

He was at the siege of Vera Cruz under General Scott; fought in several subsequent battles; and was twice brevetted for gallant services. He served for a time as an assistant in the coast survey office in Washington city; and in 1853 was appointed governor and superintendent of Indian affairs for the territory of Washington. In 1857 he was elected a delegate to congress from Washington territory, where he continued to serve until the breaking out of the rebellion. When governor of Washington territory he traveled throughout its whole extent; and as commissioner made many treaties with the Indian tribes. In 1861 he was appointed a brigadier-general in the volunteer service. He was killed in the battle of Bull Run Sept. 1, 1862, near Chantilly, Va.

RE: Regarding looking for living relatives.. First, my post was for a great grandaunt that I had heard about as a child.  I never knew if she had ever had family..her children would be passed on by now any ways,,especially if they had been born at the turn of the century..I was hoping she had had a family so I could learn more about my pioneer family, and share pictures.. Her brother was her only sibling..luckily he went on to have five children..four of which had children..I knew four of the five children...of my great grandaunt,,her nieces and nephews... When you are searching for 1/2 siblings..don't forget that Uncles, Aunts, and Grandparents are just as biologically related to you as a 1/2 sibling..I have many aunts and uncles, full ones, I have never met..most, or all are living..and under seventy years of age.   Perhaps your half sister was born in late 1964..?  Perhaps she already as a full sister from the same legal marriage?  and a man that wants to see his children, and grandchildren...should pay child support,,when he never did..So, he pays the price for what he didn't do..and children he had with other women,,are of no interest to his legal daughters..who are full sisters..and are very much alike..and are very close in age, too.  Both full sisters, have each other.  And are not interested in outsiders. Good luck. Susie Pl-Southard

I have seen many people post regarding lost relatives and parents. I can't remember if I have done this before, but it is a shot in the dark. I have meet one of my half-sisters and we are now very close. We have another sister out there, Angela Brotten. She was born in WA State in 1962/1963. Possibly, in the Chelan area. Her mother passed away when she was about 3 years old. I have heard conflicting stories that either she became a ward of Washington State or that her grandmother raised her. Either way, my biological father was forced to pay child support. Now, she should be in late 30's/early 40's. If anybody knows her or knows how to find somebody who apparently doesn't want to be found. I would appreciate it. THANKS FOR TRAVELING Andrea L.
