| 1052 | JACKMAN, Henry A. Men of Vermont: Illustrated Biographical History of Vermonters & Sons of Vermont. Ullery. Brattleboro: Transcript Publishing Company, 1894, p 219 Henry A. JACKMAN, of East Corinth [Orange County, Vermont], was born 18 February 1829 in Barre [Washington County, Vermont], son of Winthrop T. and Mary (ELKINS) JACKMAN. His mother died when he was four years old and for two years he resided with an aunt, then he was compelled to push his own way, working on a farm until he was twenty-one and obtaining such instruction as the winter terms of the district school afforded. After attaining his majority he went to Boston [Suffolk County, Massachusetts] where he remained nine years engaged in teaming. At the commencement of the Civil War [which began in April 1861] Mr. JACKMAN enlisted in the Second Massachusetts Light Battery. This battery was the first stationed at Baltimore and afterwards sent to Fortress Monroe and witnessed the naval contest between the Monitor and Merrimac. Soon after he accompanied the command to Ship Island and New Orleans in General BUTLER's expedition. He was present at the first attempt of FARRAGUT to capture Vicksburg, and afterwards participated in almost all the battles and hostile expeditions in the department of the Gulf including the successful attack upon Mobile. When his term of service expired he promptly and patriotically re-enlisted as a veteran volunteer, and with his command marched from Mobile to Montgomery and thence to Vicksburg, where he remained until honorably discharged in August 1865, after more than four years of active and continuous service, during the latter part of which he acted as quartermaster sergeant. Soon after his discharge he came to East Corinth, and in company with his brother purchased and carried on the grist mill in that place for four years. In 1876 he moved to Topsham [Orange County, Vermont] and engaged in the manufacture of bobbins and spools and to this end he has just erected a plant that promises much for the future prosperity of the community. He is an ardent Republican, a man of few words, but prompt, decided and resolute in action and with a persistence that in the end is bound to succeed in whatever he undertakes. He has always avoided rather than sought office, as the demands of his business are imperative. For several years, however, he served as selectman and represented Topsham in the House in 1876. He is a member of the Grand Army of the Republic, and for two years served as commander of Ransom Post No. 7, of East Corinth. In October 1869 at Bradford [Orange County, Vermont] Mr. [Henry A.] JACKMAN was married to Mrs. Nancy (CROWN) ROWLAND, and four children have been born to them: Alfred C., Winthrop T., Henry A. Jr., and Mary E. | Jackman, Henry A (I3842)

| 1089 | Lenore Speidel Smith's synopsis of her life -- Miki Bratt "Lenore was born in Corvallis. Hattie and Joe had a farm with some cows. Joe did blacksmithing there. (In 1940, the property was across from Oregon State University). These were horse and buggy days. When Lenore was just a little bit of a thing, she had a pony and would ride out to round up the cows for milking. Her playmates and best friends were her cousins. She was very fond of Ora and Jennie's oldest, and her parents made many visits, back and forth to George's farm near Eugene to cousins Edna, Mollie, and Beth. Once in the time before she started school, Lenore stood in her nightie near the wood stove to get warm. She stood too near and her nightie caught fire. Luckily, she was not badly burned. The family came to California. Lenore went to High school with Kuchel's, Stern's and Smith's. She fell in love with Will Smith. They were married in the Congregational Church in Buena Park. Lenore writes: "Lived in Fullerton for awhile. We moved back to Buena Park. Bought a little cottage that we made all over [remodeled] (Next to Park House Hotel). "In 1901 I had my first child, a boy, Harry Frances Smith. Later years, March 9, 1967, he died of heart trouble. Five years later, we were blessed with another boy, 1907, Stanley Dunbar Smith and in 1909, William Leslie Smith. We moved to Carlsbad where my husband was a foreman of a 640 [acre?] ranch for two years. Moved back to Fullerton. My husband was interested in Orange and Walnut Groves. In 1913, Aug. 29, a baby girl was born. Later, the crash came and we lost the big Orange Grove. Will was foreman of Thumb Ranch. Thumb made his money in sticky fly paper." From a 1909 Photograph. Fullerton ranch waa purchased from the Zeyn girls (1920). From photo taken at party to celebrate moving to the Fullerton Ranch. Stanley home at 511 W. Ash, Fullerton is on old ranch property. After the ranch was lost Hattie invited Lenore to come stay with her and keep house at 1342 Shatto St. In turn, Hattie promised Lenore half the house. Lenore lived there from around 1931, until a few months before her death in 1968. Will took a job as manager of a ranch on Orangethorpe (in Fullerton) across from Retta's place. He lived in a garage apartment. Lenore and Will visited back and forth. They fixed a clapboard room and a curtained room in the basement at 1342 Shatto St. There were two double beds and a day bed there. Sometimes Lenore stayed with Will, sometimes at Hanna's ranch nextdoor to Retta. In Fullerton, Lenore accepted care of Jeannie and Gloria Crawford children of Ted Crawford, a musician. Lenore had a lasting relationship with Ted. There were rumors. At the least he was a very gallant son. She gave him money from time to time. He was always in the hole. There were also rumors about Will at the same time with a relationship with Mary Milrick, a fashionable Anaheim dressmaker. At the least Will and Mary played cards together with the Simths. The Smiths were all great card players. Poker and Bridge. Will played cards regularly, much to Lenore's chagrin. he wouldn't play anything except rummy and a little casino. She usually did her iorning evenings while Will played with his sisters. There was a lot of ironing and it was still done with a flat iron, heated on a wood stove. But they had an automobile. Lenore was very proud of her home, her china and silver, and her position as a respected family in the community. | Speidel, Lenore Frances (I49)

| 1093 | Letter written by Grant Lupfer. April 10 It took my father six months in 1853 to make only a part of that trip - and to write a little history. My Father had Jane-10; Lewis-5; James-3; George-1; when they crossed the plains. My mother's family: Father and Mother-50 and 49; Oscar Warren -22; Lansing-20; De Lavantia Elizabeth-18-my Mother; James- 14; William-13. My father got thru well - but my mother's folks when they arrived at the Fort Hall location in Idaho near Boise were so badly off that they took the rear wheels of their wagon and made a cart of it and used the best yoke of oxen from there to the Portland area and the two remaining oxen to be killed for food. And all the children walked barefoot from there to the end of the trip and only carried what had to be for absolute needs. My mother had some sheets that she had woven and carried them until she had to throw them by the wayside - she was so little - never weighed more than 108 or 110. In later years my father's wife died and my mother had married and had Raleigh, David and Vesta Anne and became a widow. Grandmother Warren kept house for my father a while, then my mother moved in with her three children and they were married. And when I look back on that hardship, I wonder how they stood it. And my mother had the most wonderful discipline. One of our real sins was to snuff our nose instead of using our hankies. At the table once when we were all seated - help and all - about fourteen, help and all, I snuffed my nose (I was probably six) - I heard my mother's foot tap on the floor. I looked and caught her eye. A side-wise nod of the head that meant leave the table - and I quietly left until the meal was over and then I finished my meal but no one except myself and mother knew what had happened. And there were very few "don't's" in my childhood. I was allowed a lot of leeway. One day while on the old ranch, a man passing by while I was out in front, stopped to pass the time of day and asked who lived there, etc. And asked me it I was a good boy. I told him I "minded my mother". He said, "Well, you are a pretty good boy if you mind your mother." My early childhood was a very happy one - we were never "hard up" - good horses, cattle, sheep, wagons, etc., well-kept fences, barns, harness, etc. Source xerox page from my family history files. pp 100, 101.

| 1097 | Letter written by Grant Lupfer. April 10 It took my father six months in 1853 to make only a part of that trip - and to write a little history. My Father had Jane-10; Lewis-5; James-3; George-1; when they crossed the plains. My mother's family: Father and Mother-50 and 49; Oscar Warren -22; Lansing-20; De Lavantia Elizabeth-18-my Mother; James- 14; William-13. My father got thru well - but my mother's folks when they arrived at the Fort Hall location in Idaho near Boise were so badly off that they took the rear wheels of their wagon and made a cart of it and used the best yoke of oxen from there to the Portland area and the two remaining oxen to be killed for food. And all the children walked barefoot from there to the end of the trip and only carried what had to be for absolute needs. My mother had some sheets that she had woven and carried them until she had to throw them by the wayside - she was so little - never weighed more than 108 or 110. In later years my father's wife died and my mother had married and had Raleigh, David and Vesta Anne and became a widow. Grandmother Warren kept house for my father a while, then my mother moved in with her three children and they were married. And when I look back on that hardship, I wonder how they stood it. And my mother had the most wonderful discipline. One of our real sins was to snuff our nose instead of using our hankies. At the table once when we were all seated - help and all - about fourteen, help and all, I snuffed my nose (I was probably six) - I heard my mother's foot tap on the floor. I looked and caught her eye. A side-wise nod of the head that meant leave the table - and I quietly left until the meal was over and then I finished my meal but no one except myself and mother knew what had happened. And there were very few "don't's" in my childhood. I was allowed a lot of leeway. One day while on the old ranch, a man passing by while I was out in front, stopped to pass the time of day and asked who lived there, etc. And asked me it I was a good boy. I told him I "minded my mother". He said, "Well, you are a pretty good boy if you mind your mother." My early childhood was a very happy one - we were never "hard up" - good horses, cattle, sheep, wagons, etc., well-kept fences, barns, harness, etc. Source xerox page from my family history files. pp 100, 101.
