  Fifth Generation  






16. Daniel Lightfoot, Sr,65 66 68 155 156 157 158 son of Daniel Lightfoot 379 380 381 382 383 and Caterina Salome Schmidt, was born on 17 June 1811 in York, Pennsylvania, United States66 156 157 158 and died on 26 October 1895 in Mulvane, Sumner, Kansas, United States,3 158 at age 84.

Birth Notes: 
There is a minor conflict of Daniel's reported birth date and location. It apparently revolves around the abbreviation for the month: either "Jan" or "Jun" as well as the name of the county in which he was born.

The personally held Lightfoot family history documents give a birth date of 17 January 1811 in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania but there is no supporting documentation. Other researchers report a date of 17 June 1811 in York County, Pennsylvania but I have yet to see any of them provide a source citation for this data. Most likely the source for the York County birth location was Daniel's obituary which like all obituaries, was provided by another person and therefore is questionable about the facts. Phyllis Storey-Harrison, a 2nd Great granddaughter of Daniel Lightfoot writes "On a family record which appears to be in his daughter Elizabeth Lightfoot's handwriting, the date 17 Jun 1811 is shown."
----------------------------------------

Burial Notes: 
Daniel and Susannah share one common gravestone which is a large light-gray granite stone which is approximately 2 feet wide and over 4 feet high and sits atop a concrete base. At the base of the granite stone, the name Lightfoot is carved in large letters. The inscription on the face reads "At Rest, Daniel Lightfoot, 1811- 1895, Susanah Lightfoot, 1822 - 1904".

General Notes: 
1851-1852: "The History of Wayne County Ohio, 1878", by Ben Douglas, Robert Douglas Publishers, Indianapolis, Chapter XXVI, page 678, shows that Daniel Lightfoot served as one of the township trustees during the years 1851 and 1852.

1878: "The History of Cedar County, Iowa, 1878" references "D. Lightfoot" on page 648: "Lightfoot, D., farmer, Section 13; Iowa Township; Post Office Atalissa"
----------------------------------------

There is another "Daniel Lightfoot" that appears in the 1880 US Census of Hancock County, Ohio. I have not been able to place him with any family in this tree in spite of the fact that the name "Daniel" appears to be somewhat unique to this tree:

Findlay Township, Hancock County, Ohio
Daniel Lightfoot...25..OH..Laborer
Louisa Lightfoot...21..OH..Keeping House
Carrie M. Lightfoot..4..OH
Frank Lightfoot...10m..OH

NOTE - His age of 25 means that he was born about 1855. The only other known Daniel Lightfoot born around that time would be the other Daniel Jr. born in 1858, is known to have never married, and is buried in Mulvane, Kansas. At this point, I can only assume that this Daniel Lightfoot in the census is from a totally different unrelated family.
----------------------------------------

1895: The Mulvane Record newspaper of Mulvane, Kansas, October 25, 1895:
"Old Mr. Lightfoot has been sick most of the time for the last two months. He is 84 years old and can not stand without a great amount of sickness.
----------------------------------------

1895: The Mulvane Record, newspaper of Mulvane, Kansas, November 1, 1895:
Professor L. Lightfoot is principal of Altamont, Labette County, Kansas. That's quite an educational center, the county high school being there. Luke came in Sunday to attend his father's funeral. Returned Tuesday evening.
----------------------------------------

1895: The Mulvane Record, newspaper of Mulvane, Kansas, November 1, 1895:
George Farnsworth and family came up from Arkansas City first of the week to attend funeral of Mrs. Farnsworth's father, Daniel Lightfoot.
----------------------------------------

Sumner County, Kansas researcher Della Schafer reveals the following from my 2001 query:
An Andrew J. Lightfoot applied for original land (he is listed in a receipt book, but not in a patent book) in T31S, R3W (Springdale Township), the E half of the SE quarter of section 20, recorded in receipt book C, page 368. He is not shown on that land in the 1883 Edwards Historical Atlas. However, Daniel Lightfoot is shown in the atlas as the owner of the E half and the SW quarter of the SW quarter of section 15 in Gore Township, just SE of Mulvane. Also, in the atlas on an "Advertising Directory" page, is listed "The Kansas Mutual Aid Association, of Mulvane, Kansas" and shows in its list of officers, "L. Lightfoot, Pres." I have yet to find any other reference to the existence or purpose of "The Kansas Mutual Aid Association" but I believe it to be similar to the many social organizations of that time that would financially assist any of their member families in time of need or tragedy.
----------------------------------------

Some researchers incorrectly give the date of Daniel's death as November 26th instead of October 26th. This error was probably made by one researcher and that error has been copied over many times by others using the same data without checking the validity. The obituary published in the local Mulvane Kansas newspaper clearly indicates the date as October 26th.
----------------------------------------

While living in Cedar County, Iowa, Daniel apparently bought several parcels of land:
May 27, 1858: bought from Duncan McLarren, Lot 15; Block 16, Twp 79, Range 3
Jan 18, 1859; bought from John Tarr; part of SW 1/4; Block 3, Twp 79, Range 3
Sep 14, 1865; bought from Sarah A. Davis; Block 13, Twp 79, Range 3
Oct 05, 1909; bought from Duncan McClarren (McLarren ?); Block 16, Twp 79, Range 3

NOTE - The reference to "page 2 of volume 373" was given by other researchers and I am unable to find a digitized record of that page. The digitized index on FamilySearch.org for the 1895 Kansas records of Mulvane makes no reference to volume numbers. Furthermore, FamilySearch cannot find the name of Daniel Lightfoot in the 1895 population records. The Kansas State Historical Society admits to missing many records. In fact, the digitized images on FamilySearch do indicate the name of Daniel Lightfoot found in the Agricultural details of the census rather than the population section. Typically after one page of population listings, the following pages would detail the agricutural assessment for each of the farmers previously listed. In the case of Daniel Lightfoot, the 2 pages proceeding that are apparently missing in the digitized record and those pages might be the ones that indicate the enumeration for the Lightfoot family.

6. Obituary: Unknown newspapers, After 26 October 1895, Mulvane, Sumner, Kansas, United States. Daniel Lightfoot, Sr. was born in Cumberland county, Pennsylvania, June 17, 1811, and died October 26, 1895, aged eighty-four years four months and nine days. He was descended from English Quakers, who, in the time of George the 3rd were somewhat related by marriage with the royal family. His immediate ancestors coming from England had settled in Maryland from whence their posterity migrated to Pennsylvania, the native state of the deceased.

In early life Mr. Lightfoot was actively engaged in business pursuits but failing health caused a suspension of business activities, since which he has lived quite a retired life.

Mr. Lightfoot removed from Pennsylvania to Wayne County, Ohio, in early manhood, residing there until 1854, coming three years later to Eastern Iowa where he superintended his farm until 1879, when he directed his steps westward again, coming at that time to Kansas, where he found a home and his final repose. He was in early life an active member of the church, but in later life his physical infirmities kept him very close at his home.

He leaves a family of five sons and four daughters, several of whom reside in Iowa.

Rev. A. J. Beltz conducted funeral services in the Christian church at 1 P.M., Monday, October 28th, and the burial was in Mulvane cemetery. A large number of friends attended to pay their last tribute of respect to an honest, unassuming man.

6. Obituary: Unknown newspaper, May 1907, Mulvane, Sumner, Kansas, United States. 397 Mrs. T. B. Burnett passed away at her home southeast of town Tuesday morning. Being quite unexpected, it was a great shock to all of us. She, in company with Mrs. Harry Broughton, called on Mrs. Kessinger Friday afternoon and enjoyed a pleasant visit. She was taken ill that night and the family physician, Dr. Michener, was called. Inasmuch as she was subject to such attacks for the past few years, it was thought that she would so on be up again. More serious symptoms developed Tuesday morning and before her friends could realize it, she was dead.

Elizabeth Lightfoot, was born in Wayne County, Ohio, February 19, 1844. With her parents, she moved to Cedar County, Iowa in 1856. She was married to T. B. Burnett, October 16, 1868. They resided on a farm in that locality until 1876 when they moved to southern Kansas and established the present home. Two daughters, Alice LaVerne and Ester Ruhama were born to this union, and they with their families unite with their father, in sorrow for the gentle and loving mother and faithful wife. In early life she united with the Presbyterian church and exemplified in her life the spirit of the Master.

The funeral was conducted in the home, Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock, conducted by the writer, attended by a very large assemblage of neighbors and friends. Interment took place in Mulvane cemetery. Members of the family present at the funeral home were the husband and daughters, Mrs. John Newton and family of this place, and Mrs. Charley Foudray and family of Beaumont; a brother, Mr. Luke Lightfoot, of Guthrie, Oklahoma; and two sisters, Mrs. Ida Williams and daughter, Bessie, of Eddy, Oklahoma, and Mrs. Mollie Farnsworth and husband of Arkansas City.

NOTE - Daniel, Jr.'s birth state was Iowa, not Virginia. Mistake is probably due to a transcription error in the records due to poor or illegible handwriting. The letters "Ia." for Iowa could have been mistaken for "Va." for Virginia.

Daniel's gravestone is a relatively small gray granite stone with a polished sloped front face approximately 18" wide and 12" high. It is located immediately adjacent to his parents, Daniel and Susannah. The inscription reads "Daniel Lightfoot, Jr., Mar. 16, 1858 - Sept. 5, 1920". The stone has sunk slightly into the ground obscuring the death date which falsely leads observers to believe that there is no date of death.

Daniel and Susannah share one common gravestone which is a large light-gray granite stone which is approximately 2' wide and over 4' high and sits on top of a concrete base. At the base of the granite stone, the name Lightfoot is carved in large letters. The inscription on the face reads "At Rest, Daniel Lightfoot, 1811- 1895, Susanah Lightfoot, 1822 - 1904".
----------------------------------------

General Notes: 
Because of the erroneous obituary information which stated Jacob Arnsberger was the father of Susannah, many researchers incorrectly list him as her father. However, Susannah's name was listed as one of the daughters on her father's probate letter in Williams County, Ohio on 5 Jan 1880. Williams County, Ohio. Probate #2182 for Daniel Arnsberger lists daughter Susannah and son-in-law Daniel Lightfoot residing at Sedgewick County, Kansas. (Note: the city of Mulvane, Kansas straddles both Sedgwick and Sumner counties).

7. Obituary: Mulvane Record, 25 February 1904, Mulvane, Sumner, Kansas, United States. 391
Susannah Lightfoot was born in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, November 6, 1822. When twelve years old, with other members of the family of her father, Jacob (sic) Arnsberger, she moved to Wayne County, Ohio, when in 1838 she was married to Daniel Lightfoot, and continued a citizen of the commonwealth until 1854, when with their five children, they located in Williams County, Ohio, where they resided upon a farm for two years removing in 1856 to Cedar County, Iowa, by wagon and carriage conveyance and located upon one of the fertile farms of that, then new, country where they remained twenty-three years to witness the progress and to assist in the development of that Commonwealth, adding another son and two daughters to their family.

In search of a milder climate, they came to southern Kansas in 1879 and located upon a farm a few miles southeast of Mulvane, where they resided several years before taking a home in Mulvane, where in 1895 he husband died, age 84 years, after which the home was maintained by her sons, until a few months ago, when on account of failing strength, she made her home with the family of her son-in-law, S. G. Farnsworth in Arkansas City, where an affectionate daughter ministered to her until February 18, 1904, when at 3:55 PM after a long active earnest Christian life, attended by devoted children and friends, she fell asleep in Jesus and rejoined her husband who had gone on before and had for nine years extended to her beckoning hand from the realms of eternal joy.

She had no fear or dread of death, but during years of suffering she had waited with fortitude, for the departure rejoicing in the bright prospect before her. Eyes too dim for earthly service saw the beauties of eternal dawn, though gates ajar, by angels attended and rejoices while others wept.

The body was brought to Mulvane for interment, and on February 20th, services were held in the Christian Church, Elder J. E. Cain presiding with a discourse, appropriate ceremony and beautiful floral tributes, the body was laid to rest in the Mulvane Cemetery to await the Savior's call.

Among the many present was a younger brother of Mrs. Lightfoot, Michael Arnsberger of Americus, Kansas. Said brother, two sisters in Ohio, five sons and four daughters are left to mourn their loss of an affectionate Mother.

(Source: Mulvane Record, Mulvane, KS, 25 Feb 1904)

ADDED NOTE: The above obituary states that Susannah's father was Jacob Arnsberger which apparently was incorrect information provided by a well-meaning relative. Susannah's father was Daniel Arnsberger who married Elizabeth Shade. There has been some confusion about this amongst various researchers and this same error has been repeated many times over.

Susannah married Daniel Lightfoot, Sr, son of Daniel Lightfoot 380 381 382 383 460 and Caterina Salome Schmidt. Daniel was born on 17 June 1811 in York, Pennsylvania, United States66 156 157 158 and died on 26 October 1895 in Mulvane, Sumner, Kansas, United States,3 158 at age 84.

18. Moses Linn,72 73 165 166 167 168 169 170 son of Robert Linn and Sarah, was born on 22 December 1819 in Washington, Pennsylvania, United States72 73 167 168 169 170 and died on 9 February 1892 in Springdale, Cedar, Iowa, United States, at age 72.

Burial Notes: 
Moses and his wife, Hannah, share one tall vaulted obelisk marker made of white and light gray sandstone that is about 72" tall. Around the base is the name LINN in large block letters. On one side, the inscription reads "Hannah, wife of Moses Linn, Born Aug 17, 1824, Died Apr 11, 1889, Aged 64 Ys. 7 Ms. 24 Ds."

Yvonne Linn has indicated that the inscription on his gravestone has the wrong year of death; it shows 1891 and should be 1892. This also would mean that the "Age at Death" should read 72 years instead of 71 years. And the number of days should be 18 instead of 17.

NOTE - Because "The History of Cedar County (Iowa)" states that Moses went to Muskingum County, Ohio at age 18 which would be about 1837 thus making this census record back in Pennsylvania in 1840 probably for the wrong person.

Burial Notes: 
Although the Old Catholic Cemetery apparently sits near land that was originally owned by Patrick Drugan, the somewhat limited records of burials in the old Catholic cemetery do not indicate any burials for Patrick, Sr., and his wife, Anne. This still doesn't answer the question as to the location of the grave for Patrick Drugan, Sr.

Records show that Patrick Lowery gave deed for the cemetery land to the Catholic Diocese in 1880 which was 2 years before Patrick Drugan died in 1882. This means that Patrick Drugan sold all or part of his farm lands well before his death. And if he sold only part of his land, then this also means that it is entirely possible for Patrick Drugan to be buried on that portion of the farm that remained his. If he was buried somewhere on his own farm such as the proverbial "under the old oak tree", then most likely the grave sites have long since been obscured and we'll never known their exact locations. There is no visible grave marker at the cemetery nor at any nearby farm location.

The Drugans left County Tyrone, Ireland in 1849 and emigrated via New York. They likely lived for a short time in Sullivan, Pennsylvania with James Drugan and family, and then moved to Kane, Illinois. They then moved to the village of Norway in Caledonia Township, Racine County, Wisconsin in 1854, and then to the village of Trempealeau in Trempealeau County, Wisconsin around 1855. They first lived on the lands near what is now the Old Catholic Cemetery in Trempealeau.
----------------------------------------

As published in "Commemorative Biographical Record of Racine and Kenosha Counties" (Chicago: 1906), pages 498-499

The first settler in the town of Norway (Racine County, Wisconsin) was Thomas Drought, who came from Lower Canada, with oxen and wagon, and in September, 1838, made a claim of 160 acres in Section No. 12, in the northeast part of the town, where he has ever since resided. He was accompanied in his settlement by a sister, and was afterward followed by other members of the family, and the section of the town where he located has ever since been known as the "Drought Settlement." James Ash came into Norway in the autumn of '38, and Alfred Thompson and George Drought in '39.

In the summer of 1839, a vessel arrived at Milwaukee laden with a party of sturdy emigrants, about forty in number, fresh from their homes among the Norway mountains. They were destined for Illinois, but were prevailed upon to delay their journey. Mr. George Walker, whom good health had made ruddy and corpulent, urging them to settle in Wisconsin, and another person, from Illinois, whose countenance fever and ague had sadly blighted, urging them to carry out their original intention. The healthfulness of climate, as then judged of by the appearance of the representatives of the two states, decided the question with the rugged Norwegian pioneers, and they chose Wisconsin as their future home. -- They had listened with wonder to descriptions of the great land beyond the ocean, the strong attachments that bind dwellers among beautiful mountain scenes to their native huts and lost their power of restraint, and now with brave hearts and determined purpose, they were ready for hardship, adventure and work. A few days after landing at Milwaukee they lost their faithful interpreter, who was accidentally drowned in the river, but furnished with guides, a party of emigrants set out upon explorations, and soon found themselves within the vicinity of Muskego Lake. It was a dry season, and the marshes resembled prairies in their appearance surrounded by forests. Cabins soon sprung up on the hillsides around the marshes, but the bright hopes of the settlers were quenched when the spring floods came and converted the promising prairie land into lake and morasses. This caused a removal of the colony further south and west. Mr. Halver Thompson settled on the banks of Wind Lake; John Nelson, another of the party, settled on an adjoining claim, which he improved considerably, and from which he subsequently removed to Kos Kenong prairie. An American by the name of Flether also located in the vicinity of these settlements.

In the spring of 1840 Soren Backe and Johannes Johansen, men of intelligence and means, who had come from Norway the preceding fall, and spent the winter in Illinois, visited the region. They were looking for a place to establish a colony. The cluster of beautiful lakes, the clear streams of living water swarming with fish, and the forests abounding with game, which they found in the town of Norway, satisfied their desires. A cabin was built on the bank of one of the lakes; reports of the country were sent to their friends across the sea, and in the fall of 1840 Evan Hansen, known also as Evan Hansen Heg, arrived with a large company of emigrants and settled around the lakes. Backe having considerable capital, which he invested in a large tract of land, sold parcels to the poorer colonists upon favorable terms. In a short time the colony increased in numbers and became the center of Scandinavian emigration to the state, and Johannes Johansen, Soren Backe and Evan Hansen were regarded the founders of the first permanent Scandinavian colony in Wisconsin. Among the other colonists were Sivert Ingerbretsen, Knud Arslarksen, Johannes Evensen, Ole Hogensen, Gurder Gurtesen, Niels H. Narum, John Larsen, Hans Jacobsen, Peter Jacobsen and Ole Andersen.

A trading point was established on Mr. Heg's farm. An excavation was made in a large Indian mound and roofed over and fitted up into commodious apartments for families. Johannes Johansen received the appellation of "King" and here the colonists received their supplies and mail, and the first Scandinavian newspaper in the country was published, called the Nord Lyset (Northern Light), and edited by J. D. Raymert. This was also the birthplace of John P. Jacobsen, to whom I am indebted for information concerning the establishment of the first Scandinavian settlement in Norway.

Evan Hansen was the father of Hans C. and Ole Heg. His name, as inscribed on his gravestone, is Evan Hansen Heg, and I am told that the name Heg was derived from the place where the family lived in Norway, of the farm which they possessed, and which was known as "Headquarters."

A log church was built at the central point of the settlement, by the colonists, in 1845. The settlers were a religious people, and of the Lutheran belief. In the church yard, where the log church was built, many of the original founders of the colony were buried, and here rest the remains of Hans C. Heg, a gallant soldier, who fell fighting the battles of his adopted country.

The town of Norway was created by an act of the Territorial legislature on the 11th of February, 1847, and the people who gave to the town its name, and who have so successfully built up the colony originally projected by those I have named, have distinguished themselves as among the most prudent, industrious, and thrifty citizens of the county.

From: The History of Trempealeau County by, E. D. Pierce,

from page 143:
"Thomas Drugan was perhaps the first Irish settler in Trempealeau County. He came to Trempealeau in 1853 and settled on a farm in the town of Trempealeau. At that time Trempealeau was part of La Crosse County. Patrick Lowery and Patrick Drugan, the latter a brother of Thomas Drugan, came to Trempealeau in 1855. ...Patrick Drugan settled in the town of Trempealeau on the place now owned by Patrick Lowery. The Drugan's came from the county of Tyrone in the North of Ireland and lived some five years in Illinois before coming to Trempealeau."

from page 75:
"...Among the arrivals of these years [1853, 1854, and 1855] were J. D. Olds, who had selected a claim in 1851; A. P. Webb, Patrick Drugan, Thomas Drugan" *Source: John L. and LaVonne (Shipe) Drugan Family
History, 1979
-----------------------------------------------------------

From the Newspaper Article, "Irish Roots Go Deep in Trempealeau County":
(Source: Republican-Herald, Winona, Minnesota, March 17, 1953)

History indicates that an Irishman made the first permanent settlement in this, even before the county was formed. It is said that one Thomas Drugan, straight from the "owld sod," took up residence in what is now the village of Trempealeau in 1853, when straggling hunters and trappers made up the scant population. At that time, the area was a part of La Crosse, for that was before Judge George Gale succeeded in forming the present Trempealeau County from parts of La Crosse and Buffalo counties.

Typical Irish, coming from County Tyrone in North Ireland, were the Drugan's, for Thomas was joined by his brother Patrick, and by Patrick Lowery. To this day, the name Drugan is familiar in Trempealeau village. 1855 saw the arrival of Frank Feeney, Dan Galligan, and James Brady. The Sullivan's and the McCarthys within a few years were added to the growing population of Trempealeau.

Among the early Irish in Trempealeau was one Barney McGraw, credited with the quick wit and ready humor of his country. He lived in a small cottage probably of the kind which inspired the song "Tumble-Down Shack in Athlone" and other Irish songs. One of the jokes relished by his friends, and to this day vouched for by one who heard it, is quoted from Barney McGraw. He was one of several men repairing an old house, and was at work in the basement. Needing assistance, he called to the men above, "How many of yez are up there?" "Three," came the answer. "Then the half o' yez come down here," Barney called. It was said that McGraw often voiced his regret that, though he was of pure Irish stock, he had been born in the state of New York instead of in Ireland.

Throughout Trempealeau, the Irish were sprinkled "like leavening in a pan of dough." Scarcely a nook or a corner of the county but had it's Irish settlers, descendants of whom have been a bulwark to on-coming generations.

5. Land: Patrick Drugan's Farm, 30 October 1857, Trempealeau, Trempealeau, Wisconsin, United States. Land Patent filed by Patrick Drugan of Trempealeau County, Wisconsin on October 30, 1857, Certificate #10685.

DESCRIPTION: South half of the northwest quarter, and the northeast quarter of the southwest quarter in Section 24, in township 18 north, in range 9 west, in lands subject to sale at La Crosse, Wisconsin, containing one hundred and twenty acres.

This patent is interesting in that it shows that he may have also owned Section 23 at some point in time. The 3 acres that Patrick Lowery donated to the Catholic diocese for use as a cemetery were in Section 23 and the story within the Drugan family goes that this was once owned by Patrick Drugan. This could mean that Patrick Drugan only sold Section 23 keeping Section 24. The actual burial location for Patrick and wife, Anne Coyle, could be on the remaining family farm land which was Section 24.

Death Notes: 
"Wisconsin, Death Records, 1867-1907," database, FamilySearch.org (https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1803975 : accessed 19 Oct 2014), Name: Nancy(???) Drugan; Event Date: 1897; Event Place: Trempealeau, Trempealeau, Wisconsin;

NOTE - For some reason, Anne's name appears on this death record as Nancy. It is not known why or if this was a mistake on the transcription of the original records. Perhaps her middle name was Nancy and she went by that in her later years but there are no other documents to indicate that she ever used that name. And assuming that this is indeed Anne Coyle (the document indicates that her spouse was Patrick Drugan), then the document is also misleading in that it shows her parents as Andrew and Mary Drugan when in fact these would be the parents of her spouse, Patrick Drugan.
------------------------------------------------

Burial Notes: 
The somewhat limited records of burials in the old Catholic cemetery do not indicate any burials for Patrick, Sr., and his wife, Anne. No visible grave marker can be found. The La Crosse Diocese death/burial records for St. Bartholomew church in Book 1 (1874-1913) lists a Mrs. Anna Drugan died 23 Apr 1897 and was buried 25 Apr 1897. There is no visible gravestone.

NOTE - The name of the husband should read as "Patrick" instead of "Peter".

Anne married Patrick Drugan, Sr., son of Andrew Drugan 62 and Mary Loughran. Patrick was born on 17 March 1802 in County Tyrone, Ireland62 99 251 252 254 and died on 11 November 1882 in Trempealeau, Trempealeau, Wisconsin, United States,62 252 253 254 at age 80. The cause of his death was Senile pneumonia.

26. Michael John O'Keeffe 62 261 262 was born in 1819 in County Cork, Ireland62 and died in 1869 in Kansas City, Wyandotte, Kansas, United States,3 at age 50. Other names for Michael were Michael John Keeffe and Michael John O'keefe.

General Notes: 
Source: Notes from John L. and LaVonne (Shipe) Drugan Family History, 1979, as told to Carl Keefe by his father, William John Keefe:

Michael John O'Keeffe came to America in 1840 and settled in Pennsylvania. He left Pennsylvania and moved to Kemptville, Ontario, Canada. He came back to the U.S., alone, to work during the time of the Civil War and died of a fever, leaving a wife and 4 children (one was Elizabeth Jane O'Keeffe who married Patrick Drugan, Jr.) William John O'Keeffe (Carl Keefe's father), was "given" to a French family in Canada. Later, the French family moved to the U.S., taking William with them and settling in French Town across from Trempealeau County, Wisconsin.

(UPDATE - Michael John Keeffe was shown with his family on the 1851 Canadian Census in West Kemptville, Ontario but is missing on the 1855 Canadian Census in the same location. Therefore it would appear that he moved to the United States sometime between 1851 and 1855 which was quite a few years before the Civil War. This is a slight variance on the story as told years later by his son, William John Keeffe through Carl Keeffe who had said that Michael did not come to the US until the time of the Civil War.)
-----------------------------------------

The name O'Keeffe was changed to "Keeffe" when the postmaster in Trempealeau had trouble distinguishing one O'Keeffe family from another.

(UPDATE - Canadian census records from as early as 1848, 1851 and 1855 show the use of the spelling "Keeffe" so the story about the change in spelling because of the postmaster's difficulties in Trempealeau would seem to be more family lore than fact.)
----------------------------------------------------

The O'Keeffe-Drugan connection may have stemmed from the fact that both families lived at one time in Franklin County, Pennsylvania.)

Find A Grave Memorial #100850673

General Notes: 
Watergrasshill: north of Cork City in the Parish of Kilquarne, Barony of Barrymore, County Cork.
-------------------------------------------------

Margaret had to go to work to support her children after her 1st husband, Michael, died of disease in Nebraska where he had to work when so many US men were going to fight in the Civil War. If the accurate date of Michael's death was in 1862 instead of 1869, then that would mean that their 4th child was born after his death in 1862 in Nebraska.

While she was still living in Canada, a French family agreed to care for infant William while his mother worked. Later, the French family moved away taking baby William with them and Margaret had no idea where her son was until her other son, Edmund, was in the post office one day when one of the townspeople received a letter from the French family and talked about it. Edmund went home and told his mother that William was in a settlement called Frenchville, which received its mail through Trempealeau, Wisconsin. Margaret then began a correspondence with them and as a result she decided to leave Canada and follow them to the US. She caught a Great Lakes boat to Toledo, Ohio and went overland to Cincinnati where she got on a riverboat that took her to St. Louis, MO. At that city she was able to catch a steamboat that would drop her off in Trempealeau. Some say that she couldn't afford the whole fare, and was dropped off before Trempealeau, and some native Americans let her travel in a wagon with them. William was six years old before he was reunited with his family and didn't understand a word of English. All he knew was French. So it was around 1867 before the O'Keeffes were in Trempealeau.
-----------------------------------------

Margaret O'Shea, later married Barney Carroll McGraw. He was hired to fight in someone else's stead during the Civil War. When the war was over, there was considerable delay in getting discharged, and he finally went AWOL with many others, so was ineligible for any bonus, etc. Barney McGraw was one of the first settlers in Trempealeau.

(Widowed and living with 3 children.)

NOTE - The census record for Margaret is confusing because it says she is both married and widowed. Because the date of death for her husband was either in 1862 or 1869 it would seem very doubtful that she was actually widowed in January of 1861. This most likely was during the time in which her husband was off into Nebraska and Kansas looking for work where he eventually died.

In addition, her 5th child was not born until December of 1862 so it is impossible for her husband to have died before January of 1861, the date of the census. In reality, the husband must have come home for a visit with Margaret sometime around March of 1862 and then returned back to Nebraska or Kansas.

If her birth date was 2 Jul 1831, then her age should have been 30 instead of 33.

28. Syver Hansen,328 329 330 331 son of Hans Bergersen Knepperud 639 640 and Marthe Syversdatter,641 was born on 23 March 1815 in Jerpset, Eidskog, Hedmark, Norway,328 330 331 was baptized on 27 March 1815 in Vinger, Hedmark, Norway,328 and died between 1867 and 1870 in Trempealeau, Trempealeau, Wisconsin, United States.331

Birth Notes: 
The 1865 Norway Census seems to indicate that Syver was born in the Parish of Eidskog while the baptism records dated indicate that he was born in Vinger Parish. There probably is some translation or cultural differences that explain the discrepancy.
---------------------------------------------

Eidskog is a municipality in Hedmark county, Norway. It is part of the traditional region of Glåmdal. The administrative center of the municipality is the village of Skotterud. Eidskog was separated from the municipality of Vinger in 1864.

The municipality is located at the southern end of Hedmark county. It is bordered to the north by the municipality of Kongsvinger and in the west by Aurskog-Høland, Nes og Sør-Odal. Eidskog borders on Sweden, both to the east and south.

Martha was enumerated twice in 1880; once while she was staying with her children at her mother's house in Trempealeau and a second time in nearby Pigeon with her husband and children. The strange thing is that the enumeration in Trempealeau was with her husband's middle name of Halvorson whereas the enumeration in Pigeon with her husband used the surname of Egeland. All subsequent enumerations in years following used the surname of Egeland.)

And finally the daughter, Inge has not been found in any census records and therefore presumed to have died before 1915.

10. Obituary: Winona Republican-Herald, 30 November 1936, Galesville, Trempealeau, Wisconsin, United States. 696 Funeral services were conducted today for Miss Sarah Hanson, 75, who died Friday. Late last June, Miss Hanson fainted in the Galesville post office, evidently overcome by the heat, and in the fall fractured a leg. She was given hospital care and recovered from that mishap but her health failed rapidly during the last few months.

Services were conducted at the Hamre funeral home by the Rev. L. S. J. Reque and burial was at Trempealeau, her former home. Pallbearers were Theodore Scarseth, Vilas Kellman, F. A. Kellman, J. A. Hammer, Leonard Klandrud, and R. A. Smith.

Miss Hanson was born in Norway February 8, 1861. She came to America in early life and lived for many years at Trempealeau. She moved to Galesville several years ago to keep house for a brother, Hans, who preceded her in death, as did a brother Louis of Trempealeau. The only immediate relative left in this vicinity is a nephew.

General Notes: 
The following is a discharge certificate from the Prussian Government, relinquishing citizenship in that country. In 1855 the government was Prussian, not German.

The undersigned Royal Government hereby certifies that Christian Frederick Kramer from Claushagen, born 20 May 1799, at his request and his intention to emigrate to America with his wife, Maria Christine Koeppen, born 30 June 1800, and the following children, under parental supervision Christian Frederick, born 9 Sep 1828 George Frederick Wilhelm, born 23 Aug 1844 has been granted discharge from the Prussian citizenship. This discharge document is valid only for the persons named above and is effective at the time of issue.

Issued in Potsdam (capital of Prussia)
Discharge Certificate #2214 in Aug 1855
(It is thought that these certificates were numbered beginning at the first of each month, indicating that this certificate Number 2,214 was issued at the peak of the immigration wave.)
1/2 Thaler paid (Thaler was a form of currency)
Two other Kramer brothers also emigrated and came to settle with the family, apparently at a later date.

NOTE - For some reason, Anne's name appears on this death record as Nancy. It is not known why or if this was a mistake on the transcription of the original records. Perhaps her middle name was Nancy and she went by that in her latter years but there are no other documents to indicate that she ever used that name. And assuming that this is indeed Anne Coyle (the document indicates that her spouse was Patrick Drugan), then the document is also misleading in that it shows her parents as Andrew and Mary Drugan when in fact these would be the parents of her spouse, Patrick Drugan.
