9801 Sylvester is believed to have inherited the homestead of his father. Ally, in his book entitled "Battle of Groton Heights and its Centennial," states that Sylvester Walworth was a volunteer living at that time on the north side of Fort Hill. This seems to fix Sylvester as the inheritor of the old Walworth farm house on or behind Fort Hill, and for many years we find his children grouped together on these lands of their father and grandfather. Some of this land even now (1962) remains in the possession of Sylvester's descendant, Mrs. George Middleton, of Quoketaug, Old Mystic, Conn.

Sylvester was killed at the storming of Fort Griswold by the British under Arnold. He was one of the garrison fatally wounded in the fight and with other prisoners thrown into an ammunition wagon and rolled down the hill. The wagon was saved from running into the River Thames by jarring against a tree. The prisoners, thirty-five in number, including Sylvester Walworth, were taken into the house of Ebenezer Avery nearby. There, Sylvester's wife came to see him, only to find him dead. The grave of the martyred soldier is in the Ledyard Cemetery, but like those of others, who perished with him, unmarked by a tombstone. However, his name appears, with the others, on a monument erected near the site of the Fort. 
WALWORTH, Sylvester (I72934)
 
9802 Sylvester was the son of Samuel Ellenwood and Amelia Doty, the husband of Lucy Angeline Delano, who is buried nearby. Three of their sons, Samuel Lewis, Aldin O., and Warren S., died young and are buried nearby.
'His last words, "Let me rest." The lips may murmur as they will. The heart beseeching pray. We cannot change God's might plan which gives each life its day. How long we live not years but actions tell. The man lives twice who lives the first life well.' (As transcribed by Catherine Sams, Dunham Township Cemeteries, 1995.)

Mrs. Sedate Padelford

The sudden death of Mrs. S. Padelford which occurred at her home on Collins street Thursday morning shortly after - before 1o'clock was a great shock to her family and friends. she has been ill more or less all winter and for the past two weeks suffered from an attack of the grip but her illness was not considered serious. In December she went to Minneapolis where she consulted a specialist. He pronounced her disease heart trouble. She returned home in a few days and the fears of the family were allayed by her improved condition. She was seemingly as well as usual when the family retired Wednesday evening. A few minutes before her death she called her daughter and her husband and almost before they realized it she had fallen into the last deep sleep from which none awoke.
Mrs. Padelford was a member of the Christian church and G.A.R. Circle, and was a woman much loved by all who knew her. She was especially devoted to her family.
She was born in Mower County fifty-one years ago the 3rd day of next march. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. Blyton. January 31, 1877, she was married to Sedate Padelford.

9812 Taken from the Blue Rapids Centennial 1870-1970 Booklet.

Dr. Rollin S. Fillmore, born in Illinois on December 22, 1854, and passed away November 1, 1944. He lost both his parents when he was young and made his home for a time with his Aunt Cass and Uncle Frederich Merrill. While attending normal school, his desire was to study medicine, probably because his father was a physician.
In later years he enrolled in Missouri Medical College. After his first year in medical college he opened an office under tutelage of Dr. L.P. Stookey in the town of Fayettville, Illinois. In the fall he returned to Medical College and remained until graduation. On December 21, 1885, he was united in marriage to Miss Ada Louise Burn. To this union three children were born, Louise Eupheme, Rollin Slossin, Jr. and Benjamin Dewitt. Louise married Dr. R.W. Weston.
Dr. and Mrs. Fillmore located in Blue Rapids and for forty-six years was our doctor here and to our adjoining towns of Irving, Bigelow, Frankfort, Waterville, Marysville and Cleburne, also the surrounding county.
Physicians' fees and physicians' collections are entirely different things. With a country doctor, long hours and small fees usually went together.
In early days, doctors made the charge of one dollar per visit and that included the medicine. In the country they charged one dollar per visit and fifty cents a mile.
Dr. Fillmore believes his largest fee was $450.00 but this was for several weeks attendance on the patient.
In his day, he received for his services, such things as a goat, small potatoes, sugar, and etc., not always money. His means of transportation, first on horseback and carried the old fashion saddlebag. He then drove a team of stallions, then later a team of small horses. In 1908, he got his first new car, a Rambler he bought at Kansas City, Missouri.
He retired from practice of medicine in 1929 and he and Mrs Fillmore went to Long Beach, California to make their home.
Dr. Fillmore was a member of the Masonic Fraternity, Eastern Star, Knights of Pyhias, Woodmen and Royal Neighbors. He also was a member of the Township Board, City Council, School Board and in church activities.

9815 Ted Phillip Ivansek Obituary
It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Ted Phillip Ivansek of Arcadia, Florida, who passed away on September 28, 2021, at the age of 65. Ted was born in Joliet, Illinois on February 5th, 1956. He is preceded in death by his parents, Thomas and Virginia Ivansek and his brother, Terry Ivansek. He is survived by: his wife, Robin Ivansek; his brother, Thomas Ivansek (Robin); his children, Mark Ivansek (Jenny), Robert Hulett, Jr, Kyle Morley, April Morley; and his grandchildren, Madison, Arabella, Leah Ivansek and Lakyn, Brennan, and Seth Hulett.

Ted was an outdoorsman, who started out as a wanna-be farmer, who became a true rancher in his fifties. The ranch became his area of peace, and found relaxation mowing the pasture on the tractor. He loved the peace of nature and turned sitting around the campfire, telling stories and making s'mores into a family activity.

He was an animal lover at heart. Even when he encountered a calf at the ranch who was afraid, he would hold it close, pet its head, and said "It's okay, it will be alright."

There were many things he loved. In his youth, he loved hitchhiking across the country, taking adventures to destinations like Alaska, and finding many different ways to pull pranks on his favorite people. He was a free spirit and adventurer and was fascinated with the wild west, so he knew every Western ever made. He was a talented photographer for many years and an accomplished fashion model in his 20's and 30's. He had a fascination with trains, and playing guitar and singing with his brothers, Terry and Tom. He cherished his grandchildren and adored his dogs, Angel and Lexy.

His wife, Robin, was his lifelong love of the last 30 years. True to his heritage, he looked forward to the delicious food cooked by Robin, especially a well-cooked steak and anything Italian. She was "the one" and married her only three months after meeting her in 1991. When you know, you know! He adoringly called her "tweakie" because he thought she was as cute a tweety bird.

Ted cared about the community he lived in and consistently donated to support others in need. The family is grateful to the owners of Arcadia Village and the community for the opportunity to be a part of a family in the Village. It was a chance to be connected with hundreds of friends.

A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, October 2nd, 2021 at 10:30 AM at the Arcadia Village Country Club, 19th Hole Picnic Area (2692 Florida 70, Arcadia, Florida 34266).

Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Ted Phillip Ivansek to pay them a last tribute.

9822 The "Brief Notes of the Early History of the Dewey Family in America" states that Hepzibah had died about 1670/1 and that Josiah married as a 2d wife, Experience. However, the inscription on Hepzibah Lyman Dewey's headstone states she died in 1732. So I will will using that as Hepzibah's death and will removing be removing Josiah's 2d wife, Experience. DEWEY, Josiah (I64169)
 
9823 The "Descendants of Nicholas Knapp" from The USGenWeb Project- Fairfield County, Ct, states the following: Hannah, in many circles is claimed to have married Zerubabel Hoyt, son of Walter & Rhoda (Tinker)(Hobbs)(Taylor) Hoyt. The only record for such marriage is found in the Nicholas Knapp Genealogy (1953),: 1. Beyond that there is no foundation for the claim. The Hoyt Genealogy reflects Zerubabel with an "Unknown" first wife, whose identification remains unknown. Edwin Hall in his extracts of the Norwalk Records (1847), reflects nothing relative to the first marriage of Zerubabel Hoyt and the Stamford Records that are extant do not present any future for her. Thus claims to a marriage and/or death as found in many early day publications must be considered in error.

Based on the findings found in 1995 research (The Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England 1620-1633,: 1137), no further record is known to exist as pertains to Hannah Knapp's future. She is last identified in the 15 Apr 1670 Will of her father, Nicholas and then a single woman. To indicate anything otherwise as pertains to her or her future would be nothing more than pure speculation

9824 The "Early Families of Guilford, Conn." states that this John French Meigs was born in 1767 and ws the child of Timothy ad Mary (French) Meigs. I am leaving John French as the son of Timothy and Elizabeth (Stone) Meigs until I find an additional resource to prove either way. MEIGS, John French (I38927)
 
9825 The "Families of Early Guilford" has a Rachel b. 1774; died Nov 10, 1802; married to Orren Dowd. This Rachel is the daughter of Israel Graves and Rebecca Dudley. The above Rachel, b. 1771 was also from the "Families of Early Guilford". Not sure which is correct. GRAVES, Rachel (I25906)
 
9826 The "Genealogical Letter" written by John Alden on 14 April 1801 to Zephaniah Leonard, Esqr., of Raynham, merely states that "David married Judah Paddleford-the genealogy of this family you can give more correct than myself" (MD, 6:111). David served on jury duty in December 1728 (Plymouth Co Ct recs, 2:92).

The will of John Alden of Middleborough, dated 23 September 1730 (proved 3 April 1731), names son David (4th share of 80 acres in "pachade men" in addition o fifty acres, etc., already given him by deed). David was appointed a co-executor with his mother, but renounced executorship and Hannah was appointed 3 April 1731 (Plymouth Co PR, #132; MD, 23:111-15). On 1 January 1732, John Alden, between the age of fourteen and twenty-one, chose David Alden of Middleborough as his guardian and David was also appointed guardian to Ebenezer Alden, under fourteen (Plymouth Co PR, #133; MD, 23:115-116). David Alden witnessed the will of his mother, Hannah Alden of Middleborough, dated 8 September 1732 in which he is not named (Plymouth Co PR, #101; MD, 23:116).

On 5 September 1746 Phineas Pratt; Ebenezer Barrow and Sarah his wife; Elizabeth Pratt, widow of John Pratt of Middleboro; Jabez Pratt and Nathan Pratt, all of Middleboro; and Nathaniel Washburn and wife Mary of Bridgewater quitclaimed to David Alden of Middleboro "land in Middleborough that belonged to father Samuel Pratt" (Plymouth Co LR, 38:231).

David and Judah Alden joined Isaac Backus's Titicut Church on 6 May 1748 their sons David Alden, Jr., and solomon Alden, and Davids brother Samuel, were among the charter members of the church on 8 March 1748. David and Samuel were received by the Council on 4 October 1751 and renewed 2 September 1752 (Titicut Church, 27, 29-30).

As a member of Isaac Backus's congregation, David is mentioned in the Reverend's diary a number of times. He "was one of the ore ardent New Lights in Titicut . . . . He signed the 1754 Separate petition to the General Court for relief from religious taxes. Apparently he did not become an antipedobaptist, for there is no record of his joining Backus's First Baptist Church.... David Alden, Jr., became a leading figure in Backus's church. The Aldens were involved in the iron trade, and Backus did some business with them on behalf of his brother's ironworks in Norwich" (Backus Diary, 24). In his record of deaths, Isaac Backus reported "His Son rufus was taken sick with ye bloody flux (dysentery) at Ashford & he set away to see him on Oct 12, 1754, & stayed till Rufus got better & then returned on Oct 21, & he was taken with ye same disease himself before he got home, tho he had it moderately & he got better, his Children Hannah & Silas were taken with it, after which David was taken on Nov 10. Peter was seized ye next Friday & Hannah & Phebe both died on thanksgiving day, Nov. 28. About that time, Job & Abigail were seized, Huldah died Dec 4, 1754 & her Mother & Solomon were taken about that Season. A distressing house indeed; but ye rest of 'em recovered in a fortnight or 3 weeks" (Isaac Backus "bills of Mortality"). In his diary he wrote on 4 November 1754 "Two of David Aldens Children ware seized with the feaver and bloody flux which has swept off So many in Connecticut lately; and I fear is a presage of that terrible distempers spreading among us here." On Saturday, 23 November, " preacht at the funeral of Peter, Son to David Alden who died yesterday morning with the blood flux. Five more of the family are now Sick with the same distemper. this disease has been terrible in Connecticut, but this family is the first which has had it among us...." On Friday, 29 November, he wrote "Just at night I attended the funeral of Br. D. Aldens 2 daughters Hannah and Phebe who were both laid in one grave. Hannah died a little before midnight lastnight. Three Children he has now buried in less than a week, who never buried a Child before." On Wednesday, 4 December, "Went to preach a leacture at Br. Eddy's, and learned just before meeting that Huldah Alden died this forenoon which seemed very shocking...Next day I went and preacht at Huldah's funeral from Job.23.3.4." Finally, on 3 September 1763 Backus recorded "Mr. David Alden (Sr.) died the 24th of Aug. A happy change I believe to him" (Backus Diary, 353, 356-57).

On 30 December 1755 David Alden and Joseph Alden of Middleborough sold to John Alden of Middleborough one half of the 10th lot of cedar swamp in the 26 Men's Purchase (Plymouth Co LR, 44:35).

On 7 August 1758 David was appointed guardian to the children of his brother-in-law Francis Eaton: Elijah, Susanna, Benjamin, and Mary (MF, 10:27).

He is probably the David Alden who bought part of the homeplace in Middleborough from John Eaton of Greenwich (probably his nephew) (Plymouth Co LR, 68:63; MF, 10:81).

David Alden of Middleborough bought land in Ashford, Connecticut, 2 June 1750, from William Metcalfe of Lebanon, Connecticut (Ashford LR, H:22).

David Alden gave his son Solomon a double portion of his estate in Titicut in 1751 (Plymouth Co LR, 41:197); his son rufus 100 acres in Ashford, and 2/3 of a sawmill on 30 December 1752 (Ashford LR, H:156); his son David, of Middleborough, 40 acres bought of brother Ebenezer 12 December 1753 (Plymouth Co LR, 43:10); and son Job, of Middleborough, land in Titicut bought of Joseph Eaton and wife, 14 August 1760 (Plymouth Co LR, 48:232).

The will of David Alden of Middleborough, dated 14 May 1763, proved 24 August 1763, names "my loving wife Judith," his sons Solomon (land in Bridgewater already given by deed of gift), David (land in Middleborough already given by deed of gift), and Silas (land in Middleborough), and his daughter Abigail (two cows, six sheep and other items), and incidentally his brother John and his brother Joseph's homestead. "...my lot as ashford I give to my five children to be Equally Divided between then..." The account was made 5 November and sworn 7 November 1763 (Plymouth Co PR, #77, 16:503-04).

On 14 May 1768 Solomon Alden of Bridgewater, husbandman; David Alden, yeoman; Job Alden, yeoman; Henry Leonard, Jr., husbandman, and wife Silence of Middleborough; Zephaniah Leonard Esq. and wife Abigail of Raynham - with dower released by Sarah Alden, wife of Solomon; Rhoda Alden, late wife of David and Lucy Alden, wife of Job - sold to Joseph Leonard, Jr., of Bridgewater 100 acres and dwelling house on Mansfield town line, "the land our father David Alden bought of Mr. Metcalf of Lebanon and gave to us by will" (Ashford LR, 11:11).

9827 The "Genealogy of the Descendants of Alexander Alvord" lists the marriage of Submit and Joseph as Feb. 2, 1773. However, his first wife, Sarah, did not die until 1776. I'm wondering if the dates or a mistake. CHAPIN, Submit (I10769)
 
9828 The "History of the Welles Family" lists Johies birth date as 1315. Can't see how that would be if Adam died in 1311. So I am not listing a birth date for him. DE WELLES, Johies (I17814)
 
9829 The "Slason Book" lists Lois last name a Sprague, her death certificate states otherwise. This might be a previous marriage. Will have to do research to know for sure. BROWN, Lois (I54241)
 
9830 The "Slason-Slauson-Slawson-Slosson Family" book states that Simeon Slawson moved to Farmersville, Union Parish, Louisiana where he married ?. He was killed at the battle of Vicksburg, in the War between the States. Interred at Taylor Church, east of Farmersville. SLAWSON, Simeon L. (I52286)

9833 The "Slason-Slawson-Slosson" book lists Elvina's 2nd husband as Charles. However, according to the 1880 census, I believe it should be George H. Lewis. LEWIS, George H. (I35848)
 
9834 The "Slawson" book by George C. Slawson, shows Ebenezer as the son of William and Elizabeth Slawson. Through further research, I have found that this is incorrect.

The "Historical Gazetteer and Biographical Memorial of Cattaraugus Co., NY, ed. by William Adams, pg. 959 states - -

Ebenezer SLAWSON was born in Schenectady, NY, in 1795, and died in Hanover NY in 1877. His father, EBENEZER, was a tailor by trade and a farmer and served seven years in the Revolutionary War, dying in Yates County, in Jan. 1820. His wife was Lydia NASH. Ebenezer, Jr., married Betsey CARR, who died in this town in 1859. Children: Samuel, Melissa, Eliza, Daniel, Caroline, John, and Silas N.

Silas N. SLAWSON was born in Yates County, July 7, 1814. March 10, 1836, he married Temperance L. HOPPER. Children: Newton, Temperance A., and Samuel E. The latter was born in Hanover, NY, May 12, 1850, and married Inez PARSELL, Sept. 17, 1873. Silas N. SLAWSON marries, second, Alice I. FRINK, June 4, 1885. Newton SLAWSON died in April 1883. He married Rose C. BROWN. He was several years a teacher, twelve years a justice of the peace, and was deputy sheriff at the time of his death. Silas N. was superintendent of schools in Hanover, Chautauqua County, and town superintendent and commissioner of schools in Perrysburg. He was one of three delegates from this locality to Philadelphia to organize the U.S. Teachers' Association, and has taught school over twenty years.

9835 The "Slawson/Slauson/Slason/Slosson Book" by George C. Slawson list the wife of Roy Scott Slawson as being Marion Howard. However, it has been brought to my attention by Dawn Arndt on 1/31/2012 that this is wrong. The correct name of Roy's wife is Mary Catherine Larsen. Her parents were Hans and Hansine (Hanson) Larsen. She has provided me with bible records and a birth certificate stating as such. I am correcting this error. LARSEN, Mary Catherine (I29827)

9837 The 1790 census shows Samuel Procter of New Bedford with one male over age 16, two males under 16, and two females in his household (M637-4, p. 442); Samuel Procter, Jr. is also listed. In 1800 one Samuel Proctor is listed in New Bedford with one male 10-16, two males 16-26, one male over 45, one female 26-45, and one female over 45. No Susanna Proctor is listed in 1810, but in 1820, a Susannah Proctor of Fairhaven, over 45 is living alone (M33-47, p.285).

Administration for the estate of Samuel Proctor, merchant, late of New Bedford, on 5 May 1801 was granted to Susanna Proctor, widow of New Bedford (Bristol Co PR, 149:319).

Upon the petition of Susanna proctor, administratrix, Joseph Tripp, guardian of William and Charles Proctor was instructed to sell property on 3 October 1811 (Bristol Co PR, 38;157). 
PROCTOR, Samuel (I93467)
 
9838 The 1800 Census records him as of Saybrook; one male over 45; one male and one female, 26 to 45; one male 16 to 26; one female, 10 to 16 in his family. He was a Revolutionary soldier; served from May 8 to December 18, 1775, in the 9th Company, 6th Regiment, Connecticut State Troops; in Major Skinner's Troop, Regiment of Light Horse, State Troops, from June 10, to August 13, 1776; as seaman on the galley "Trumbull" of the Lake Champlain flotilla, discharged November 25, 1776.

9839 The 1850 Census lists Erastus last name as being HATHAWAY. I think that this is incorrect and should be MILLER. MILLER, Erastus (I72377)
 
9840 The 1850 Census lists John's last name as HATHAWAY. I think it should be MILLER. MILLER, John A. (I72378)
 
9841 The 1850 Census shows Ann's (Mary) age as 52 and the 1860 census shows age as 60 and a widow. I am beginning to believe that Ann is Jacob's second wife. Since she was born in 1798. But I have to wonder if some of the children are hers. STEELE, Mary Ann (I55003)
 
9842 The 1870 Census for John N Selleck's family lists a George w. Brown. I believe that he is actually George Selleck, son of John N. and wife Eliza A.

If he was the son of Charles and Lydia Brown, then the would of been 15 when he was born. 
SELLECK, George N. (I76081)
 
9843 The 1900 Census lists George as being a widow and living with his brother, Isaac. Also, a niece, Dorcia Wood, b. January or June 1883 in Ohio, age 17 - occupation; servant BROWN, Charles Morton (I08151)
 
9844 The 1910 Census lists a Catherine age 15 living with William and Catherine. I'm not sure who she is. Possible she is Mabel? SLAWSON, William Elmer (I52432)
 
9845 The 1910 Census shows Nellie as the wife of Samuel S. Gibson, born 1849 in England. However, in the census for 1920, 1930 and 1940 show her as being listed as Elizabeth Warren.

It shows this to be her 2nd marriage.

There is a Samuel Gibson in Find a Grave, b. 13 Feb 1849 and died 21 Jul 1932. However, his headstone has the name of Margaret with him. She was born 23 Apr 1871 and died 18 May 1948. Samuel and Margaret are listed together in the 1920 and the 1930 census.

I am going to list the 2 together until I can prove otherwise.

 
SLOSSON, Nellie Elizabeth (I52968)
 
9846 The 1940 Census lists a Thomas, age 5 living with James and his wife Nellie. I am not sure which family he belongs to.  HEATH, James Nelson (I28149)
 
9847 The adult life of Agnes consisted of three parts, and the first part was her years with Henry III. As Henry dealt with the affairs of his realm, he left the operations of his court to Agnes. She became known throughout Europe as a generous patron of writers, painters, and poets. Europe's most creative minds came to Germany, and with them Agnes created a brilliant court. She also had six children with Henry, including his first-born son and heir Henry IV, born in 1050. These happy years ended abruptly when Henry III died in 1056.

When Henry IV succeeded his father, he was only six years old, and the second part of Agnes' life began when she started to rue as regent for her son. Besides her administrative responsibilities, she also acted as Chief justice and commander-in-chief of the military. The princes of the empire had approved her becoming regent and for the first few years were quite satisfied with her performance. They might have remained content for much longer but for the fact that Agnes relied very often on the advice of bishop Henry of Augsburg. The other princes felt that they were losing their own status as advisers to the royal court, and they began to consider how they might usurp the regency. They decided that separating Henry IV from his mother would give them control over the boy and his empire. One day in 1062 while Henry IV was on an island in the Rhine near Cologne, archbishop Anno of cologne and other princes sailed up in a small ship, seized Henry IV, and kidnapped him.

Agnes' reaction was cool and calculated. Henry IV was twelve when he was abducted but would reach the age of majority just two years later when he turned fourteen. Agnes gave up all the powers she was exercising as regent, moved to Rome, and offered her services to the pope. The second part of her life was over, but the third part was about to begin.

In Rome, Agnes quickly became a close friend of Pope Alexander II, who gave her new ecclesiastical responsibilities and sent her back to Germany on several papal missions. In 1064, Agnes was back in the imperial German court, and she was also present at the ceremony in March 1065 where Henry IV was declared an adult. her personal intervention was all that prevented Henry IV from taking the sword he had jut received and killing archbishop Anno of Cologne.

For the rest of her life Agnes served the pope and the church at the highest diplomatic levels. She made her last trip to Germany in 1074 and then retired to a convent in Rome to pray, fast, and tend the sick. She died on 14 December 1077 and was buried in Rome in the church of Petronilla, which later became part of St. Peter's.

9850 The ancestry of Henry Herman's wife, Maria Bitinger, has been traced to her 3rd great grandfather, Elias Bietinger, who was born about 1570 in Gondiswil, Switzerland. Gondiswil, located on the Birs River, is near the northeast border of the Canton of Bern. The Biurs flows north to the Aare River at Murgenthal & the Aare flows northeast to the Rhine River at Waldshut, Germany, which then flows west to Basel, Switzerland and north through France & Germany before turning west though Netherlands to the North Sea at Rotterdam.

Elias and Barel Lybundgut (born 17 Sep 1581) married about 1613 in Gondiswil and their first child, Hans, was born 27 Feb 1614. hans grew up in Gondiswil, where he met and married marie Walchle (born 1639) in 1659. Their first child, Peter, was born 30 Sep 1660. Bietinger families were Protestants and by the later 1600's were among the wealthy families of Gondiswil. However, they were also among those being persecuted by Catholics and about 1680 (a few years before the King Louis XIV 1685 revocation of the 1598 Edict of Nantes) Hans, Marie, and their children migrated downstream along the birs & then traveled by boat down the Aare & Rhine past Basel and Strasbourg to the Alsace region of Germany (now part of France), settling near Durstel. the Herman & Baltzly families also lived in the Alsace region and the three families may have been acquainted before immigrating to America.
