Officials have been unable to determine the whereabouts of Robert Vian, Sparta, middle-aged businessman, who disappeared from his Wisconsin street home Wednesday.
Mr. Vian is owner of the Vian Tourist cabins and operates a Tavern here. He was carrying a large sum of money with him at the time of his disappearance.
Friends say he has been worrying about his investments, but members of the family declare he has had no financial difficulties.

SPARTA WOMAN IS REPORTED MISSING WITH TAVERN KEEPER SPARTA, WIS---(SPECIAL)
Co-incident with the disappearance Oct. 18 of Robert Vian, Sparta Tavern and tourist cabin operator, Miss Ella King, 29 year-old daughter of Mrs. James Thurston, dropped from sight, the Thurstons have made known.
Miss King used the story of a job as a maid in the Nathan Shlimovitz home as a ruse to leave home without arousing suspicion. Not for several days did her mother inquire about Miss King at the Shlimovitz residence. It was learned that the daughter had not called there in search of work.
The missing girl is the daughter of Mrs. Thurston by her first marriage to Edward King. She is described as being five feet four inches tall, with straight black hair and a sallow skin. She is of slight build and has a peculiar stilted walk.
Neither Miss King nor Mr. Vian have been located since their strange dissappearance last month. A warrant has been issued for Vian's arrest on the ground of non-support of his wife Mrs. Bertha Vian who has sued for divorce.

Monroe County, WI. Court Record: Vian, Bertha Court: County Box:56 Case#1657 Year: 1934: This court case involves C.W. Brotherson suing Bobert Vian and Estate of Bertha Vian for payment for work materials and labor for building structures for a tourist camp.

Devon. He was born in 1472 (aged thirty and more at his father's Inq.p.m.). He was summoned to Parliament from 28 Nov 1511 by writs directed 'Roberto Willoughby de Brooke', but sat in Parliament as Lord Broke, presumably so as to void confusion with his cousin, Lord Willoughby. After the death of his son Edward in 1517 he settled the bulk of his family estates (including the manor of Brook) in Wiltshire, Dorset, Devon, etc., on his daughters of his second marriage. WILLOUGHBY, Robert (I89697)
 
9306 Robert Wingfield, Esq., of Upton, co. Northampton, second son, M.P. for Peterborough, may have been born as late as 1490 (aged under twenty-one at father's death). Like his elder brother Thomas, he entered royal service. As the King's servent, he was granted the manors of Upton and Allesworth, co. Northampton (which had belonged to the late Queen Jane Seymour) on 12 July 1543, and established the family seat at Upton. He was married, evidently about 1530 when aged about forty, to Margery Quarles, daughter of John Quarles, of Ufford, Norfolk. They had two sons and a daughter. She predeceased her husband and was buried at Ufford. "Robert Wingfeld, esquire, Upton" died testate, apparently aged over eighty-five, at his manor of Upton, on 4 Feb 1575/6. (will dated 4 June 1575 and proved 6 July 1576. WINGFIELD, Robert (I90292)
 
9307 Robert Wingfield, Knt., of Letheringham, son and heir, ws born in 1403, and was knighted by King Henry VI at Hereford on 19 May 1426. He was steward of the lands of the Duke of Norfolk, and attended the Duke on an embassy to France in 1447. He was M.P. for Suffolk in 1427, and for Hertfordshire in 1449. He married Elizabeth Goushill, and they had seven sons and five daughters. 'Syr Robert Wingefeld, knyght, town of Cambridge' died testate in 1451, and was buried at Letheringham. A brass effigy formerly in Letheringham church showed the arms of Wingfield impaling Goushill bearing the inscription: "Her lieth S'r Thomas Wingfeld, knight, Richard Wyngfeld and William Wyngfeld, squyres, sonns of S'r Rob't Wyngfeld, knyght, and of Lady Elizabeth, his wife, syster to the duke of Norff". WINGFIELD, Robert Knt.

9309 Robert Yates Griffith is the youngest son of Robert Yates Griffith, Sr., and Marie Agnes Koch. He was born in New York City. He and his family moved to Norwalk, where Robert Sr., opened a delicatessen. The family lost both their home and their business during the Depression.

9311 Robert, Jr., lived at one time at Dartmouth, Massachusetts (NEHGR 12:220). His birthdate sometimes given just "1634" but unsubstantiated, probably due to a misinterpretation of the incomplete entry of the children in the Plymouth Colony Records which begins with "the son in law" born 1634. "About 1632" (FPdkHA) is reasonable. There appear to be no known records of his death or of a possible marriage. Only his name has been perpetuated through private family records.

LIFE'S LABORS ENDED
Demise Of Albert Hulett
Occurs On Tuesday Morning.
The community was startled Tuesday forenoon by the report that Mr. Hulett was dead. While it was well known that he was sick, but very few were aware that his condition was considered at all dangerous. He had been sick with an ailment of the stomach, but a short time and the news of his death was a surprise and a shock to everyone.
Albert Hulett was born at Veteran, N.Y., August 14, 1833, where he lived with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John M. Hulett, until 1837 when they moved to Ohio. Shortly afterward they moved to Indiana and in 1842 they came to Illinois, settling a few miles south of Rockton which was then in its infancy.
May 1st 1866, he was united in marriage with Rachel Ann Lake who passed away November 25th, 1876. To them were born seven children, five sons, three of whom died while quite young, and two daughters. The living are Mrs. Mattie Black of Latham Park; Mrs. Lorena Ricker of Sioux City, Iowa, John of Belvidere and Marson whose present address is unknown.
October 17, 1889 he was married to Mary M. Feakins, who with their one son, Paul M., survives the husband and father.
Of Mr. Hulett's life and public service many of our readers are better fitted to speak than we, whose acquaintance with him has been of comparatively short duration. Suffice it to state that for five years he held the important office of supervisor of the town of Owen, and since moving into town a few years ago he has served a term as village Trustee and one as Village President. He has always been a great student and his opinion was often in matters requiring careful thought and study. As one who has long known him has said: "He was a kind husband and father, a thoroughly good man and always showed the best side of his character in his family."
The funeral will be held from the house t 10:30 o'clock to-day, interment taking place at the west side cemetery in Rockford where his first wife and children are buried.

9318 Rodolphus removed from the City of Buffalo, Erie County, New York, and first arrived in Elgin, Illinois, on October 19, 1842. He first resided in City of Elgin on lots 11 and 12, Block #1 James T. Gifford's Addition.

Occupations:

Clerk of the Baptist Church of Elgin 35 years
Treasurer Town of Elgin 34 years
Town Clerk 28 years
Clerk of the Baptist Assn. 31 years
Deacon Baptist Church of Elgin 30 years
Clerk of the City of Elgin 20 years
Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas of City of Elgin & City Court of Elgin 21 years
Sec. of the Board of Trustees of Illinois Northern Hospital for the Insane 8 1/2 years

Upon settling in Elgin in 1842, Rodolphus was the first one to locate a daguerreotype gallery. His place of business was located just west of where the railroad tracks now cross Chicago St.
People used to say that no one did a more careful job of bookkeeping than Rodolphous. One calamity that befell him was that his office caught fire at one time and among the things that were burned were all the records he had so carefully kept of the meetings of the Baptist Church.
He was always a friend of the downtrodden. At one time, he conducted a station on the "underground railroad". Many a colored person owed liberty to him. It was said that he held an open hand and an open heart to all men.

Upon the death of his wife, Rodolphus went to live with his youngest daughter, Isadore. He died quietly in his daughter's home.

Rodolphous often made the following statement to his friends and family: "I am truly proud of my family tree, because of the brave and upright people who are on it. How much superior is the lineage which contains such men as Roger Williams and the martyrs who have died for freedom than an ancestry containing Kings who did nothing to make a better world."

Named in a executor's bond in the last will and testament of Manly Padelford, dated October 5, 1848

Named administrator of estate of Thankful Padelford.

Reads: After Many Days
"Yesterday was the 53rd anniversary of the wedding of R.W. Padelford, Esq., and Mary Wilber, who were married in Buffalo, New York. Saturday it occurred to a few nieces that the occasion would be a proper one on which to visit "Uncle Rudolphus" and "Aunt Mary", and so the relatives who were convenient of access were warned to be on hand Monday evening, as six o'clock for a picnic. At that hour about 35 relatives marched in, little and big, armed with baskets and packages, and took possession of the house. The number at seven o'clock had increased to over sixty, including sixteen children, holding the relation of grand-children,great-grandchildren, grand nephews and nieces under twelve years of age. A table was soon loaded by the nieces and all were abundantly satisfied, and then music, recitations by the little ones, and general sociability followed fro a couple of hours. The nieces present were Mesdames C.D. Church, E.H. Hill, C.V. McClure, J. O. Wedell, and Misses Julia Padelford, MInnie Wilber and Emma Davidson.
The occasion was thoroughly enjoyed by all present, and at a seasonable hour the guests departed, leaving loving words wit the venerable couple whose house for so many years has been a rallying point for legions who from childhood have regarded "Aunt Mary" as a mutual and loving friend."

Reads: A Long Time
"Monday, April 2d, will be the 60th anniversary of the wedding of R.W. Padelford an Mary Wilber. It is a long time to look back over, but to them full of the pleasant memories of a life wel lived, there is not a shadow of regret of the union. Mr. Padelford at 82 years of age is as active as most men of 60, and gives daily attention to business and receives the confidence of the community. Mrs. Padelford, though partially helpless, still commands the love and respect of a large circle. None of our citizens but will wish them continued peace and happiness."

R.W. Padelford
Another Pioneer of Elgin Has Gone
Came to This City 52 yearsaAgo- useful life.

"Rudolphus Williams Padelford died Wednesday evening at 6:30 o'clock and with his departure has passed one of the most familiar personages of Elgin's history. Everybody knew him, as he was for many years prominent in various ways. He was born in Savoy, Mass., July 21, 1806, making him over 88 years of age. He came to Elgin in 1842, and this had since been his home. First he engaged here in merchandising, afterwards was in the daguerreotype business. For many years he was an insurance agent. He was city clerk of Elgin from the organization of the city until 1875, when he was succeeded by the present incumbent. He was also the town clerk for years, and when the city court ws established was chosen clerk. That position he filled until a few years ago, when J.R. Tuttle succeeded him. He was secretary of the asylum board, township treasurer, and for many years was clerk of the state Baptist association. Always prominent in the Baptist church, his counsels since infirmaties overcame him have been much missed. A few years ago his health so failed that retirement from active duties was imperative. Since then, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. E.C. Kincaid, he had been peacefully awiting the end. His wife died a few years ago. His other children are Jane (Mrs. E.S. Joslyn), Jeannette, and George W. Mr. Padelford was of English descent. Previous to coming to Elgin he kept a hotel in Buffalo, N.Y. and also was a merchant there. At this writing arrangements have not been completed for the funeral."

"R.W. Padelford died Wednesday evening, aged 88 years. He came to Elgin over 50 years ago, and has been a prominent citizen ever since, until two years ago, when his failing health compelled him to retire. He leave 3 daughters, Mrs. E.C. Kincaid, with whom he resided, Mrs. E.C. Joslyn, Jeannette, and one son, George W. The funeral will be held Saturday from the home of E.C. Kincaid"

"The death of Deacon Padelford removes from Elgin one of its old landmarks, a man as widely known and respected and as closely identified with the history of this city as any of the pioneers who witnessed the city's growth from the early forties until the present time. On Wednesday evening Rudolphus Williams Padelford breathed his last and an active and honorable career came to an end. He was born July 21, 1806 at Savoy, Mass. He came to Elgin in 1842, engaged in mercantile business, then conducted a daguerreotype gallery and later turned his attention to the insurance business. He was Elgin's first city clerk, which office he held until 1875. He was also town clerk, clerk of the city court, secretary of the insane hospital board, and township treasurer, all offices of trust, showing the esteem in which he was held. Deacon Padelford was very prominent in Baptist circles and held the office of clerk of the State Baptist association. Four children survie, Mrs. E.S. Joslyn, Mrs. E.C. Kincaid, Miss Jeannett and George W. Temperate and frugal in all his habits, Mr. Padelford accumulated a comfortable property which has been entirely dissipated in late years, a fact which has added especial pathos to his declining days."

Elgin, Ill March 17 - The family of R.W. Padelford, consisting of six persons, was nearly suffocated by gas from a coal stove last night. A daughter on awaking past midnight and feeling ill arose, but immediately fell to the floor. The noise awoke another of the family, who was unable to rise and well nigh suffocated. Mrs. Padelford on awaking attempted to get out of bed, but was too near suffocated to do so; she suceeded in arousing Mr. Padelford, however, who finally succeeded by the utmost exertion in reaching the window and raising it. A physician was immediately called who administered restoratives. All are improving at present. 		PADELFORD, Rodolphus William (I42918)
