9056 Raymond Boyd (Buddy) Huggins, age 88, of Lawton, was born east of Lawton, January 28, 1930 to Benjamin and Bessie Huggins. Dad passed away April 1, 2018 on Resurrection Sunday!

He was the youngest of eight children, Beula, Mildred, Edgar, Elton, Clint, Violet, and Louise. He attended school at Fairview (east of Lawton) until 8th grade. Dad was always a hard worker. He started working at a young age for Western Union, riding a bicycle all over Lawton delivering mail and parcels. He joined the Air Force and served for four years. In 1951, he met and married the love of his life, Lois Arine Slawson.

He started working as a route salesman for Falstaff. Life was moving fast because next came a baby boy (Danny) into their lives. As quick as 13 months later, a little baby girl (Linda) was born. Between being a new father, fishing, and working?dad was a busy young man. Seven years later came that unexpected third child, Tonya. Dad then started his career at Southwest Sales (Coors) and life got even busier.

Over the course of his lifetime, Dad was a faithful member at several area churches including Central Baptist Church and Northside Baptist Church, Lawton. He was a charter member at Crossroads Baptist Church, which was his final church home, and he so loved his Sunday school class, preacher and church family.

Dad fished throughout his life of 88 years, investing his life in fishing for fish as well as following Jesus? instruction in Matthew 4:19, ?Come, follow me, I will make you fishers of men?. Dad provided fish for fish frys at many church functions, fundraisers at Paradise Valley Fire Department, and family reunions. He said he did not like to eat fish, but liked to fish so he could give the fish away to people who enjoyed eating fish.

Dad was rich in his relationships and left us a legacy with his love for the Lord Jesus, his family, and his love for others. Dad was a man that was content in all circumstances. He made the best of what he had and continued to do this throughout his life.

He was preceded in death by death by his parents, seven siblings, beloved wife Lois, precious son Danny, and a great grandchild, Skye Daniel.

9066 Rebecca married in Boston 1 July 1679, THOMAS RUMSEY, who pretended to be of status and wealth in England, but apparently was not, and also was already married. Legend has it that they went to England where Rumsey stole her possessions, deserted her for his other wife, and that Rebecca had a child by him. Supposedly, she died on a voyage back to Boston in June 1692 when her ship stopped at Port Royal, Jamaica, and an earthquake struck. A portrait of her is in the NEHGS Fine Art Collection, and is reproduced on the cover of the Spring 2019 Register.

No documentation to support the story of Rebecca's life after she left Boston has surfaced. But in the early 1680s Nathaniel Mather, a pastor in Dublin, Ireland - where Rebecca's older sister Rachel (Rawson) Awbrey was living - may have referred to Rebecca in two letters to his brother, Rev. Increase Mather of Boston. On 2 march 1680/1 - just twenty months after Rebecca's ill-fated marriage - he wrote: Mrs Aubrey & her sister are well." On 7 NOv. 1682, Nathaniel related that "Mrs Aubrey was with mee this day & is well, but concerned for her sister who is in London & was not well, & from whom she hath not heard these sundry weeks."

Perhaps Nathaniel Mather was referring to one and/or two of Rachel's sisters-in-law. but it seems unlikely he would have bothered to mention a sister-on-law of "Mrs Aubrey" to his brother in Boston- since it is questionable if Rachel's husband William Awbrey had any New England relatives. It seems ore likely that Nathaniel was sending information for Increase to convey to Edward Rawson about the latter's daughters. Of Rachel's own siblings, only Rebecca would seem to be a fit for this unnamed "sister."

Non-relative. Have marriage notice from the Sabetha Herald of Sabetha,Nemaha county,KS Thursday July 30, 1903:

---SLOSSON-GARDINER.
Washington Girl Married at Evansville

9071 Received the "Declaration of Intention" and "Petition For Naturalization" records for Gabriel this month, August 2010. It verifies Gabriel's birth date and place of birth. He emigrated to the States from Hamburg Germany on the vessel "Deutschland". Leaving on August 15, and arriving about August 22, 1907. He did not travel with his wife. He traveled with Jeremias CSUCS. Both stated as being born in Gorbed, Hungary. Jeremias was born about 1867. I will be looking into this name to see if he could be related - possible a brother.
Now that I have the correct spelling of Gabriel's last name, I was able to locate the passage of his wife, Elizabeth and children Maria and Ambrus. Elizabeth and Maria traveled to the States on November 21, 1909, arriving around the 30th of November. They emigrated to the States on the vessel "Pannonia". Departing from Fiume (Germany?)
Ambrus, my grandfather, came even later. He left on the vessel "Saxonia". He also departed from Fiume (Germany?). He did not travel alone, for he was only 9 years old. He traveled with Peter LOCSE. Peter was born about 1864. Peter stated his wife was Peterie Locse. (It is hard to read) It is stated that this is Ambrus's aunt. Both were listed as being born in Tenkegorbed, Hungary. Both destinations were for Gary, Indiana. Again, here is another name that I need to research. A new family link.
A Romanian friend of mine said that the correct spelling would be CIUCI. And that in fact it is a Hungarian name.

9079 Reinold was chosen one of the first two deacons in the First Congregational Church, Lyme, when it was formed, 27 March, 1693, but he is more frequently referred to, on the later town records, by his military title. He was "Sargent" of the Lyme train-band as early as 1702, and probably held that position until 1712, when he was appointed ensign; 8 May, 1718, the Legislature "established and confirmed Mr. Reinold Marvin to be Captain of the First Train-band or Company" in Lyme. He was chosen townsman in 1697, 1702, '03, '05, '06; first townsman in 170, '22-25, '28, '31 and '32. hempstead, in his Diary mentions meeting him with the other selectmen of Lyme, of 25 April, 1728, to "Renew the Town Bounds" between Lyme and new London. he was constable, 1694; collector of rates, 1713, '14; grand juryman, 1714 and 1735; sealer of weights and measures, 1715; lister, 1729; moderator, 121, '23 and '24, and was on numerous important committees. MARVIN, Capt. Reinold (I101953)
 
9080 Religious Leader. Second President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS), also known as the Mormons. He is revered today by his followers for his wisdom and leadership in the building of the Mormon Church in Utah. He is controversial for his belief in plural marriage and his role in the late 1850s in a dispute with the Federal Government. Born the 9th child of 11 to a poor farmer in Whitingham, Vermont, his father, John Young, moved his family to upstate New York, where Brigham became an itinerant carpenter and painter. Raised a Methodist, he married Miriam Works in 1824, and moved to Cayuga County, New York, where he plied his trade of carpentry and painting. In 1829, he moved to Mendon, Monroe County, New York, where he saw the Book of Mormon for the first time. He quickly joined the LDS Church, being baptized on April 14, 1832. After his wife's death on September 8, 1832, he became more convinced of the correctness of his new religion, and began preaching and converting others to the LDS faith. In the fall of 1833 he moved to Kirtland, Ohio, and married Mary Ann Angell, who took care of his two children from his first wife, and bore him several additional children. In February 1835, he was named one of the first 12 Apostles of the LDS Church. In the next several years, he performed missionary missions in New York and Missouri, and working as a carpenter and painter helping to build the Kirtland Temple. In 1839, he went to Missouri to help the Mormons there move to Nauvoo, Illinois. In 1840, he went to England to perform missionary work, returning to Nauvoo periodically. While in New York in 1844, he learned of the death of Joseph Smith, Founder, first President and Prophet of the LDS Church, and he hurriedly returned to Nauvoo. Speaking powerfully to the dispirited people of Nauvoo, he rallied them and was quickly given authority as President of the Church. In 1846, the Mormons were forced from Nauvoo, Illinois, and Brigham Young determined to lead them to a better land where they would not be persecuted. He and 147 others arrived in the Salt Lake valley on July 24 1847. Young was ill, and when he saw the valley for the first time, he stated, "This is the Place." Salt Lake City was built with his guidance. From 1851 to 1858, he served as the first Governor of Utah Territory. While in Utah, he had a vision that God would allow the Mormons to have multiple wives. Before his death, he had 29 wives and 56 children, for which he was highly criticized by many people. From 1856 to 1858, relations between the Mormons and the Federal Government deteriorated, with the eastern press playing up popular fear that the polygamous Mormons were about to declare their independence from the United States. President James Buchanan ordered the United States Army to Utah, to reestablish Federal control. This force, under command of Colonel (and future Confederate General) Albert Sidney Johnson, remained in Utah until the outbreak of the Civil War. Brigham Young established the LDS Church firmly in the West, seeing to its expansion, growth and stability. He laid the groundwork for Utah's eventual entrance into the Union as a state, and was a political force throughout the latter half of the 1800s. It can be truly said that he helped to build and settle the West. His dying words were reportedly a call to the first LDS Prophet, "Joseph! Joseph!"

E-Mail dated 9-27-09 from Rachel Smith
Horace Henry Slawson was born on August 17, 1894 in Central Valley, NY. He was the son of George and Rebecca Storm Slawson. I'm not sure but he may have been adopted. I have a childhood memory of him telling me that his father remarried and his stepmother was very cruel to him. I believe that they were very poor. She would feed her children first and give him the scraps. Horace was a man of very few words so that was a big statement. Despite his harsh upbringing he was a very placid and kind man.

I was told he was a mix of different ethnicities but mostly American Indian (not sure of which tribe). He died in Tuxedo, NY on April 27 1982 of Cancer at the age of 87. He had several children from his first marriage: George Slawson, Julia Juliet Ayers, Lilian Taylor, Mary Conklin, and Dorothy Schreeder. I don't know anything about his first wife. You should write Dorothy Schreeder to see if she can give you more detailed information. She and her husband, Robert, had a house in Newburgh so that address you have is probably correct. Robert and Dorothy Schreeder had two children: Sharon and Robert. I haven't seen any of them since my grandfather died in 1982, which is a long time ago. I was not close with any of them. At one point my grandfather was close to his daughter Lillian Taylor but then she moved away and they seemed to loose touch.

9099 Return Jonathan Meigs IV died at Elbow Springs, located about sixty miles west of Salt Lake City, Utah. His burial site is unknown. This is a cenotaph erected to his memory in the Ross Cemetery, Park Hill, Oklahoma.
?
Return Jonathan Meigs, 4th, was born on April 3, 1812, the son of Timothy Meigs and Elizabeth Holt. Timothy Meigs was the son of Col. Return Jonathan Meigs and brother of Gov. Return Jonathan Meigs.

He married Jane (Jennie) Ross, oldest daughter of Chief John Ross of the Cherokee Nation, at Cleveland, Tennessee, in 1838. Meigs emigrated with the Cherokee Nation to IT (OK).

They had the following children: John Ross Meigs 1839-1899; Henry Clay Meigs 1841-1924; Elizabeth Grace Meigs 1843-1882; Return Robert 1846-1938; and Submit "Nitty" Meigs 1848-1885.

He was a partner of Chief John Ross in a mercantile business located in Park Hill, IT (now OK). But he got the gold fever in 1849, and sold out to Chief Ross. He left for CA with a large group lead by Clement V. McNair on 20 Apr 1850.

While at Elbow Springs, UT, on Aug. 6, 1850, the party spent time cutting grass to feed their stock in the desert. Meigs complained of not feeling well, but still helped with the work. He was among the first work group to go out. After cutting his share of grass, he raked it up and carried it into camp. By that time, he was very ill and lay down on the heap of grass to rest. Within a few minutes he had died, saying that all was well with himself and asking John Clark to look after his effects.

Elbow Springs is located about sixty miles west of Salt Lake City, Utah.
