DEATH OF A REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIER

DIED - On Monday the 16th of November inst., in Colerain Township, Bedford County, PETER MORGRET aged 88 years, 6 months and 28 days.

The deceased was born in Sussex county, New Jersey, on the 18th of April A.D. 1758. In 1765 he was taken by his parents to Loudoun Co., in the state of Virginia - here he lived until after the close of the Revolutionary War. He entered the Patriot Army soon after he arrived at the age of seventeen - was a Lieutenant in one of the Virginia companies and was stationed in Virginia all the time that he spent in the service - was in no engagement except that of York-town - was present at the surrender of Cornwallis and saw him offer his sword to Gen. LaFayette thinking it more honorable to surrender to a French Nobleman than to a "Rebel General". He also saw LaFayette refuse the sword and turn the attention of Cornwallis to Gen. Washington by saying "This is the Commander of the day - give your sword to him", Cornwallis politely complied with the direction.

In 1783 he moved from Virginia to Bethel Twp. in this county, and in 1785 to Providence Township where he resided until the year 1831, when he moved to Colerain Township where he resided until the time of his death. Eight of his children out of a family of twelve survive him. He has now living more than sixty grandchildren, and more than forty great-grandchildren. He was respected and esteemed by his neighbors - and was for some years a member of the Baptist Church and died in the hope of a Blessed Immortality.

3936 The Eatons Come to Texas

as told to Mozelle Wootan Benton

I don't really remember Grandpa James Madison Eaton, but I believe he was not a large man, and he wore a mustache. Mama (Lilly Mae Eaton Wootan) said he loved horses and that he liked to move to new places - always thought a new plaetter. In fact, she (Mama) said he was kind of a "fiddle foot", but he seemed to make a good living, for those times, where ever they lived. Grandma Betty (Elizabeth Smart Huffman Eaton), as I remember her, was a slender woman with a pleasant outlook on life. As I think about it, I can't remember any of our parents or grandparents complaining or whining - it didn't seem to be part of their nature. What a wonderful legacy that is!

I don't really know where Grandpa and Grandma lived before Mama was born, except records show they had children born in Mason County and Mama said they were married in the same County where Grandma was born, either Bandera or Coryell County. At any rate, they were living near Abilene, in Taylor County when Mama was born October 12, 1887. When she was about five years old, Grandpa moved his family and all worldly goods by train to Indian Territory, what is now Oklahoma. They lived first in the Chickasaw Nation, then lived in the Creek Nation, near what is now Muskogee. Grandpa leased land from on "Old Indian named Alec Yarbo".

While they were living on Mr. Yarbo's place he decided Aunt Minnie would make a nice addition to his household, and he offered Grandpa a new wagon, a good span of horses (or mules) and a set of new harnesses for her! Mama said Aunt Minnie was really scared, she was afraid Grandpa wouldn't be able to resist such a good trade! But he did resist, and Mama said she never thought she was in any danger.

Grandpa's father, John Eaton, lived with them while they were in Oklahoma and he died while they were still living near Holdenville (1898 or 1899) and is buried there.

I believe Aunt Mary married while they were in Oklahoma. She married Jim McDaniel, and they had three children. Aunt Mattie was married too, but she may have married before they left Texas, Mama didn't say.

Anyway, sometime around 1899 or 1900, Grandpa decided the grass was surely greener farther west, so he decided to go to Folsom, New Mexico where Aunt Mattie and Uncle Henry Waldrup lived. They went by wagon to Durango, Colorado, then on to Folsom, NM. After two or three weeks in Folsom, Grandpa took the family to Durango where they spent a couple of months while the weather was warm.

Then they decided they would move to Farmington, New Mexico. Grandpa made a living hauling freight from Albuquerque to Farmington. While they were in Farmington, Aunt Mary and her husband, decided they would move their family to New Mexico, too. They traveled by train from Indian Territory to Durango, Colorado. Grandpa took Grandma and some of the kids to Durango to meet the train and bring the McDaniels back. When the train came in Mr. McDaniels was very ill with pneumonia. He lived less than two weeks after arriving. After his funeral, Grandpa, Grandma, Aunt Mary and the children went to Farmington. Aunt Mary got a job in the apple canning plant - Mama said there were many large apple orchards in the area. I believe it was while she was working in the apple "shed" that Aunt Mary met Huber Vineyard, a widower with two children. They soon married and had two children of their own.

After they had lived in Farmington for two years or so, Grandpa took Grandma and Uncle Jim, who was nine or ten years old, to Capitan, New Mexico, to see Grandma's sister and her family. This was Minta and Tom Buckelew. Grandma got sick while they were there, and Grandpa decided to move to Capitan - I don't know which came first.

Anyway, he and Uncle Henry Waldrup started back to Farmington to move everything to Capitan. (I don't know whether Aunt Mattie and Uncle Henry were already living in Capitan, or whether he was going to move there also.)

Grandpa and Uncle Henry were going by wagon but the snow was so deep they couldn't make it and Grandpa went back to Grandma, and Uncle Henry took the train to Farmington. He and Uncle Joe (who was 17 or 18 years old) got the things together and started moving to Capitan. They were on the road for two weeks, and there was snow on the ground all the way. Mama rode side saddle the entire trip, and took care of the loose horses. She loved it!

She loved horses, like her father. I asked her if she didn't get awfully cold, but she said she didn't remember being very cold.

Grandpa got a job in Capitan, hauling ties to the railroad. I believe she said the ties were cut in the mountains - in what is now Lincoln National Forest, I guess.

While they lived at Capitan, their water came from a spring in the mountains about two miles away. The water came down the mountain in a wooden trough made out of 2' x 12' boards, Mama said. In the Winter it was Mama's and Uncle Jim's job to "walk the trough" and cut the ice out of it, so the water could run into the storage tank. Another fun job!

3937 The estate of a John Emerson of Haverhill with widow Elizabeth is probated beginning in 1734; there is no matching death record in Haverhill town records, nor any records of any other kind regarding either a John or Elizabeth Emerson; a John Emerson with wife Judith appears in Newbury town records with several children in 1688-1704 but no other records for either person there Emerson, John (I3477)

MRS. MENA CABLE IS DEAD AT HOME

Well-Known Sandusky Woman Died Sunday - Had Been Active In Church and Civic Work

Mrs. Mena Walther Cable, widow of the late Laurence Cable, and one of Sandusky's oldest and best known residents, died Sunday afternoon at 4:05 o'clock at her home, Monroe st. and Central av. She had been confined to her bed for the past seven weeks.

Few women in Sandusky were better or more favorably known than Mrs. Cable. Born in Canton on December 21, 1843, she was a daughter of Anthony and Elizabeth Walther, and she was married to Laurence Cable on November 26, 1880.

The Cable family provided the site for the present Providence hospital building and aided financially in the establishment of the institution and also equipped the chapel in the building. Although of the Catholic faith, Mrs. Cable did not limit her activities to the church and organization of that faith, but took a leading part in civic affairs of the community and her work was diversified.

She served on the original board of directors of Good Samaritan hospital and was also active for many years in the affairs of the Humane Society. She was a faithful member of St. Mary's church.

Mrs. Cable is survived by one son, the Rev. Father Herman Cable of San Diego, Cal.; one daughter, Mrs. Caroline Wagner of San Jose, Cal.; six grandchildren; 20 great-grandchildren; one sister, Mrs. Louis Breitenstein of Canton, and one brother, John Walther of Cleveland.

The funeral will be held from the residence Wednesday morning at 8:30 o'clock with services at St. Mary's church at 9 o'clock, the Rev. W.C. Zierolf being celebrant of the solemn requiem high mass. Internment will be made in St. Mary's cemetery. It has been requested that flowers be omitted.

3945 The following obituary appeared in The Sandusky Star, Sandusky, Ohio on Monday, 17 Oct 1904 at page 4:

LAWRENCE CABLE, RIPE IN YEARS, PASSED AWAY

Aged Banker and Pioneer Citizen Died Sunday After Long Illness - Never Saw Providence Hospital, for Which, Among Other Charities, He Had Done So Much

After months of suffering during which there was little or no hope of recovery, Lawrence Cable, one of the city's oldest and best known citizens, died Sunday morning at 9:30, at the family residence, Monroe street and Central avenue. He was aged 80 years 6 months and 7 days.

The funeral services will take place Wednesday morning from the residence at 8:45, and at St. Mary's church at 9 o'clock. As he had lived so will the services be, as simle as possible with no music and no sermon. The burial at St Mary's cemetery will be private, and it is the family's urgent request that there be no flowers.

Many a man and woman drops a tear at the announcement of Mr. Cable's death. Without any show or publicity, he had been a generous giver, and many a poor man had been assisted in time of trouble while business men recall numerous occasions when they were tided over troubles and assisted to success. It is for this largely, that Mr. Cable will be remembered.

To Mr. Cable, also the city is indebted largely for its greatest charitable institution, the Providence hospital. As a memorial to his deceased son, Albert Joseph Cable, the property was donated by Mr. Cable, who also furnished the memorial chapel and in other ways assisted in the project. A sad feature is that he never saw the institution for which he had donated so much. Before the hospital was completed, he was taken ill and although he made several attempts, he was never able to go out to see the building.

As president of the Third National Exchange bank, Mr. Cable was known as a skilled and careful financier not alone in Sandusky but in other cities. It was in this capacity that he was best-known. His rise to this position, however, has been achieved only by hard work for he came to this country a poor boy. Born iat Seigen, Alsace, France April 9, 1824, Mr. Cable grew up during troublous times and to escape being drafted into the army, he came to America at the age of 19, sailing from Havre and landing in New Orleans. He went first to Washington, Ind. where a brother had located in 1838. His trade was that of a cabinet maker and in 1843 he went to Bellevue O where he worked for David Moore. In 1844 he came to Sandusky for the rirst time being employed by H. F. Merry. Still later he was employed by Charles Zollinger, at the same trade.

In 1846 Mr. Cable went to Washington for a visit and there was persuaded by his brother to enter the academy at Notre Dame. He worked at this trade to pay in part his tuition, but after a year returned to Sandusky and was induced to remain here. He was married to Miss Josephine Zurcher in the spring of 1848 and then again went to Washington Ind. In June of the following year, he wife died, a victim of the cholera, then raging in the country. Broken down with grief, Mr. Cable came again to Sandusky, bringing with him his infant child, now Mrs. A. L. Deck, of 214 Decatur street.

About this time, he secured employment with the Mad River railroad Co., continuing in this work until 1852. Then he went to work as superintendent for Benedict Icamas, who had the contract for getting out timber for the great bay bridge and abuttments for the Lake Shore railroad. In 1853, he again went to work for the Mad River road and in 1856 went into partnership with Samuel Catherman, making moving machines. In the fall of that year, he took the contract for macadamizing Washington street, from Wayne to Franklin streets, and this was so well done that the street has never since required rebuilding.

In the winter of 1856-57 Mr. Cable bought the shoe stock of John Bean, who had failed in business. In this deal he was in partnership with John Bright but in 1867, Mr. Cable bought the entire stock and continued to operate the store very successrully for a number of years finally disposing of it to his sons, Edward and Frank Cable. It is now the Farrell & Rosino store.

By this time Mr. Cable had become prominently identified with business affairs and when in 1872 the Third National bank was organized he became its president. Peter Gilcher being vice president and George J. Anderson, cashier. Twenty years later Sept 18, 1902, the Third National bank was again organized succeeding the old bank and Mr. Cable was again made president. He continued to occupy the office until his death.

In May 1853, Mr. Cable was married to Miss Victoria Stoll, who died May 7, 1871. Six children were born to the union: Mrs. Carrie Wagner, now living in Sidney, O, Mrs. Sophia Wagner who died at Sidney, April 8, 1883, Edward J and Frank L Cable of this city, Rev Father Herman Cable, who has recently been in the east, and Albert Joseph Cable, who died Dec 21, 1881, while at college.

Mr. Cable was a man little given to society, but was devoted to his home and all his spare time was spent there. He was a member of St. Mary's church.

In his home and social life, as in business, he was quiet and unostentatious but a friend to any one in need.

Business men of the city generally regret his passing away. With many, he had been associated for years. The Third National Exchange bank, of which he was so long president will be closed during the hours of the funeral and it is likely that others will pay a similar tribute. The directors of the bank will meet Tuesday afternoon to take action. Vice president R E Schuck will probably continue as acting president of the bank until the first of the year.

3949 The history of William Rikard, Jr. as published in a Mississippi. Genealogy Journal along with that of the Malone-Hester family was written by Mary Floyd Summers Rikard, a descendant of Robert and Elizabeth Counts Rikard. It reads: The name of William Rikard, Jr.'s wife is thought to have been Sarah Ann sometimes called Polly. After her death William Rikard Jr. moved his family to Franklin County Alabama circa 1832 or thereabouts. One of his oldest sons, Robert, returned to Newberry County, South Carolina and with power of attorney, sold the 215 acres belonging to his father to George Dominick, signing the deed. 'William Rikard, Seal by Robert Rikard, his attorney. Seal'. This land was sold on October 15, 1836.

That same fall, Robert moved the remaining family and household goods to Alabama, where they settled down in Franklin County. Family legend tells the story that William Rikard, Jr., and his three sons came riding into the new lands of Alabama on beautiful white horses.

The Franklin County census of 1840 lists both William and Robert. William apparently died before the 1850 census was taken. He was shown to have been born 1770 and had several children who died young and apparently a number of daughters who had married while still living in South Carolina. The known children of William Rikard:

1.Robert Rikard born 1795 in Newberry County, South Carolina, married Elizabeth Counts, daughter of Henry and Elizabeth Fellers Counts. Robert and Elizabeth apparently lived for some time after their marriage in Newberry County as they were involved in a family court case in 1821 in that County. Their children as listed in a Family Bible were:

1.1.John Carlyle Rikard was born in 1819 in Newberry District, South Carolina, married Mahulda "Hulda" Hester in 1845. Their children:
1.1.1.William Thomas Rikard born 1846.
1.1.2.Robert Henry Rikard born 1848 married Betty Black.
1.1.3.Amy Rickard born 1852 married Chesley Hester.
1.1.4.Domica P. born 1854.
1.1.5.Michael Glover Rikard born 1856.
1.1.6.James Madison Rikard born 1857 married Sarah E. Goode Weatherford.
1.1.7.Levi Mitchell Mitt, Rikard born 1867 married Leora Hester
1.1.8.Simon Glover Rikard born 1869.
1.1.9.Mary Jane Rickard born 1871 died 1952 married James Dobbs.
1.1.10.David Pinkney Rickard born 1868 died 1953 in Tishomingo Co., Mississippi line. He married Mary Etta Crawford. They settled between Midway and Holcut, Mississippi near South Crossroads Baptist Church.

2.John Rikard was the son of William and Sarah Ann "Polly" Rikard in North Carolina when he married according to some reports. It is known that his wife's parents were living in North Carolina. He and his brother William "Buck" Rikard apparently married sisters. His wife was Nancy Taylor and she and John moved to Mississippi and later to Arkansas. Nancy is buried in Arkansas but John Rikard is buried in an unmarked grave in Hovater Cemetery near Frankfort, Alabama. Their known children, most of whom were born in Arkansas are:

2.1.Samuel Rikard married Eliza Fleming and moved to AR.
2.2.Mary Frances Rikard m. John
2.3.Rebecca Rikard married Jasper James.
2.4.Draton Rikard m. Margaret Smith, died and buried in MS
2.5.William Amos Rikard married Sarah I. Rikard 1st cousin

3. William "Buck" Rikard, III, the son of William Rikard, Jr. and Sarah Ann "Polly" Rikard, was born on January 8, 1810. He was a great grandson of old Thomas Raccourt Rikard who first came to the Newberry County area of South Carolina when it was still called Craven County. Buck, as he was called, made a tour up into South Carolina and Tennessee possibly with his brother John and this is probably where he first met his wife. He married Frances "Fannie" Taylor. Family members think that Frances and Nancy Taylor's parents were: Dorman Taylor born 1782 in Virginia and Sarah Kent born in Virginia also. This has not been proved however.
They seemed to have moved around a lot, and the census gives their childen born in Tennessee. The children of William Buck and Frances Rikard were:

3.1.John Wesley born January 1833 in Alabama and died 1920 in Prentiss County, Mississippi. In 1867, he married Ida Dillard who was born in 1842 in South Carolina and died in 1909 in Colbert County, Alabama. Note: CSA Soldier Co. E 4th Alabama Cav.
3.2.Henry F. Rikard born 1835 in Alabama died 1907 in Franklin County Alabama, married 1. Samara Black 2. Judy Taylor 3. Chappel Taylor. Note: Union Soldier 64th Ill Inf.

3.12.Arthur Goodloe Rikard was born in 1864 and died in 1933. Arthur married Nannie Hughes.

Mrs. Ara Belle Rikard Hester of Russellville, Alabama added to the history of the William Rikard, Jr. family. Her-grandfather was John Wesley Rikard, the eldest son of William "Buck" Rikard.

The family of William "Buck" Rikard and his wife, Frances Taylor was given land by Pleasent Taylor and on March 17, 1853, the land was entered in his name. It was on this 58 acre tract of land that the Rikards built their home. They lived there all of their married life and are buried on a hill just above their old home.
