The remainder of the family is listed under Cath Guinn living in Huntingdon, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania. Nanny and Alexander were living with their aunt Mary Henderson Dorsey (ABAEA) in the 1860 census of Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania. The following is from the "History of Huntingdon and Blair Counties, Pennsylvania; by J. Simpson Africa; Philadelphia; Louis H. Everts; Alexander Gwin was born in the borough of Huntingdon on the 29th of December, He received a collegiate education, graduated at Dickinson College, Carlisle, and afterwards studied law in the office of Robert Allison, and was admitted to the bar on the 9th of November, His father, Patrick Gwin, had been sheriff of the county for several terms, alternating with John Patton, and had an extensive acquaintance and influence throughout the county. Mr. Gwin came to the bar under highly favorable circumstances, and immediately entered u[)on a practice, for which he was well qualified by education and habits, but the business committed to his care was chiefly that of his immediate family connections and friends. On account of distaste for the legal profession, or some other cause, he divided his time and attention between politics and the law, seemingly with a preference for the former. Consequently in 1834 we find him at the head of a Democratic newspaper. The Huntingdon Gazette, advocating the election of Henry A. Muhlenberg for Governor. Mr. Gwin was not disheartened by the defeat of his candidate, but renewed his efforts as an editor for several years, and as a politician till the close of his life, and became more celebrated as a political leader than as a lawyer. In 1839 he was appointed prosecuting attorney for the county, an office which he filled for three years. This office he held at August term, 1840, when he conducted the prosecution of Robert McConaughy for the murder of the Brown family, the most exciting case that was ever tried in the county. In this trial he was assisted by George Taylor, then a young attorney (afterwards judge), and they both distinguished themselves by the arguments they made for the commonwealth. Mr. Gwin, although a plain, matter-of-fact man, who eschewed everything like rhetorical flourishes, made a 5-23

24 powerful speech against the prisoner, which called forth the admiration of the audience. It was the concluding argument in the case, and was overwhelming to the prisoner. His whole course as a prosecuting officer was marked by a serene severity and the strictest regard for the interests of the commonwealth. He discharged the duties of his office without fear, favor, or affection, and thus became a terror to evil-doers and a " praise to them that do well." Political excitement ran high and wild at that period of the history of our county, and at one of the courts the grand jury to whom a bill had been sent charging some offense growing out of the violation of the election laws returned it indorsed "ignoramus, and that Alexander Gwin, prosecuting attorney, pay the costs," etc. Judge Burnside remonstrated, explained the law on the subject of imposing costs upon officers of the law, but the jury were firm, and would not move from their position. Mr. Gwin stood apparently unmoved. Judge Burnside, turning to him, asked whether he had any other bills to lay before the grand jury, when Mr. Gwin promptly replied, "I have no more business for this grand jury "Thereupon the grand jury was discharged, and the remaining bills were held over to the next sessions for another grand jury. Mr. Gwin never had any trouble with grand juries afterwards. Mr. Gwin had much to do with the distracting movement in 1841, when the Democrats, under a local organization known as the Workingmen's party, elected a portion of their ticket in the county; but his greatest triumph came off in 1845, when he and Henry L. Patterson were elected to the House of Representatives over Henry Brewster and Adolphus Patterson. The members voted for the division of the county and carried it through the Legislature, but Mr. Gwin retired from politics, and died two years afterwards. Alexander Gwin was a remarkably fine-looking person, about six feet in height and well proportioned, of highly intellectual features and pleasing manners and address. He is kind hearted, warm in his friendships, honest and just in his de3alings and highly respected. He died possessed of a considerable estate. he departed this life on the 28th of March, 1848, aged forty years and three months. VI-138.

27 The Bingham family of Chester county, which had for its brightest representatives the late William R. Bingham, D. D., a brilliant minister of the gospel, and Edward D. Bingham, a talented lawyer of West Chester, is of old and honored standing in Pennsylvania, and has contributed many worthy members to the professions and to public life. The name of Bingham appears in early colonial days in Adams county, where was born Hugh Bingham, paternal grandfather of Edward D. Bingham. Hugh Bingham received but an ordinary district school education, but he was a man of fine native ability, and carved out for himself a successful career. In his early life he removed to York county, where he became a prosperous farmer, and a stockholder and director in a bank. A Presbyterian in religion, he was an elder in his church for a quarter of a century. In politics he was a Whig of the Henry Clay school. His wife Margaret was a daughter of Colonel John Kelley, of York county; she was born during Washington's second administration, and she lived to see that of President Benjamin Harrison. She was the mother of five children, John, Margaret, Eliza, William R. and Ezemiah; the first named son became a lawyer, and died soon after being admitted to the bar. William R., third child and second son of Hugh and Margaret (Kelley) Bingham, was born in Adams county, Pennsylvania, in He received his literary education at Jefferson College, in Canonsburg, and studied theology at the Western Theological Seminary in Allegheny City, from which he was graduated in He was at once ordained to the Presbyterian ministry, and for twelve years thereafter labored usefully and acceptably in the pastorate of the Great Valley Church at Chester Valley, Chester county, Pennsylvania. After a retirement of one year, he took charge of the church at Oxford, but eighteen months later failing health obliged him to abandon all active work, and nearly a decade passed before he resumed regular ministerial duty, duty. In 1878 he entered the pastorate of the Avondale and West Grove Presbyterian churches, with which he was connected for ten years, leaving these charges in 1888 to take the chair of theology in Lincoln University, a position which he adorned during the remainder of his active career, while he was at the same time president of the board of trustees. As earnest student and deep thinker he was widely known for his profound knowledge of Biblical subjects, and, in recognition of his large abilities and sincere Christian character he received from Westminster College the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity. He was a Republican in his political affiliations, an uncompromising opposed of human slavery and an ardent Unionist. He never took a deep interest in advancing the interests of the community along educational and material as well as religious lines. He married Nannie Davidson Allison, who was born August 29, youngest daughter of Robert and Mary (Elliott") Davidson, of Huntingdon county, Pennsylvania. Hon. Robert Allison was a prominent and influential man, a Whig in politics, who had represented his district in congress. John Allison, father of Robert Allison, was one of the early settlers of Franklin county, and was a member of the state convention which ratified the constitution of the United States. In the same body also sat Jacob Elliott, maternal grandfather of Nancy Davidson Allison. Three children were born to the Rev. Dr. and Nannie (Allison) Bingham: 1. Edward Donaldson: 2. Mary Allison, who was the first graduate of Wellesley College, in 1879, and president of its alumni association until her death, in her twenty-sixth year: 3. Hugh W., who died in infancy.

George William Brown: ABBAA (John, I-1; William, II-2; Patrick, III-8; Esther, IV-22) Mr. Brown was born in Baltimore City on October 13th, 1812 and died Sept. 6, 1890 at Minnewauska, New York. He graduated from Rutgers College, New Jersey. His grandfather, Dr. George Brown, was born in Ireland, graduated in medicine at the University of Edinburgh, and settled in Baltimore about 1783, where he soon became one of the leaders in his profession. George's father was George John Brown, and his mother was Esther Allison, a daughter of Rev. Dr. Patrick Allison, the first pastor of the First Presbyterian Church. George William Brown, the subject of this sketch, entered the sophomore class of Dartmouth College at the age of sixteen, but the death of his father caused his withdrawal. He, however, later was graduated from Rutgers College, New Jersey, and read law in Baltimore, where he was admitted to the bar. He took a prominent part in public affairs and was conspicuous in quelling the riot caused by the failure of the Bank of Maryland in He formed a law partnership with Mr. Frederick W. Brune and shortly afterwards married Miss Clara Maria Brune, October 29, Clara, the daughter of Frederick William Brune, was born in Sept. of 1817 at Baltimore, Maryland and died July 21, 1919 at Baltimore 5-31

32 Maryland. On November 12, 1860, he entered the office of Mayor, and served to September 12th, His term did not expire until November 10th, 1862, but he was taken into custody and imprisoned by the Federal authorities. It was during Mayor Brown's administration that the long threatened conflict between the North and South began. Baltimore was a Southern city; Maryland a slave state, and the people were deeply attached to the South, being intimately associated with its traditions and institutions. On the other hand, Baltimore was identified with the North in a business or commercial way, and when the storm broke, the city found itself in the throes of many intense and conflicting emotions. The sentiment of the community was opposed to the passage of troops through the city, "to make war upon the South." Hence, when the armed Sixth Massachusetts Regiment attempted to march from President Street depot (Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington Railroad) to Camden Station (Baltimore and Ohio Railroad) on the 19th of April, 1861*, the inevitable clash took place and the first bloodshed of the Civil War occurred. 4 Mayor, George William Brown, interceded trying to stop the rioting and placed himself at the head of the column beside Captain Follansbee of C Company. The mayor is reputed to have shot a particularly egregious rioter, using a rifle snatched from a Union soldier. Police chief George Kane deployed his force to defend the troops and restore peace. Neither man supported the Union, but both seemed to understand the consequences of the mayhem in the streets. The Police Commissioners were placed under arrest and numerous other prominent citizens suffered a like fate; Mayor Brown, himself, being taken into custody September 12th, 1861, The arrested Maryland political figures that were suspected of being Confederate sympathizers were imprisoned at Fort McHenry to prevent them from inciting any acts of secession. After the war he returned to politics of Baltimore and the legal profession, having been elected by the reform element, with which he had long been identified, in opposition to Know- Nothingism. He likewise was a candidate on the Fusion ticket for the same office in 1885, but was defeated by James Hodges, Democrat. Mr. Brown was a leader in the movement which resulted in the founding of the Baltimore Bar Library, of which he later became president. He was a member of the first Board of Trustees of the Peabody Institute; one of the founders of the Maryland Historical Society; a regent of the University of Maryland; a visitor of St. John's College, Annapolis; a trustee of Johns Hopkins University of Maryland; a visitor of St. John's College, Annapolis; a trustee of Johns Hopkins University; president of the Athenaeum club, and a member of the State Constitutional Convention of With two collaborators he complied the first digest of decisions of the court of Appeals of Maryland. In October 1872, he was elected chief judge of the Supreme Bench of Baltimore City: having been nominated by the Democratic Conservative Party. Reaching the age limit before expiration of his full term, he was retired, serving the full term. Judge Brown died September 8, Both are buried at the Green Mount Cemetery, Baltimore, Maryland. His wife Clara and children Frederick and Ellen were living together at the time of the 1900 census. VI-162.

Sidney Buchanan Brown: ABBAB (John, I-1; William, II-2; Patrick, III-8; Esther, IV-22) Sidney was born circa 1818 and died on Mar. 24, 1893 in Baltimore, Maryland. She married Dr. Nathaniel Morrison on Dec. 17, Nathaniel was born in Peterborough, Cheshire County, New Hampshire Dec. 14, 1815 and died Nov. 14, 1890 at Baltimore, Maryland. Both are buried at Green Mount Cemetery, Baltimore, Maryland. They lived at 20 West Madison, Baltimore, Maryland. The following is from the "History of the Morison or Morrison Family": Nathaniel Holmes Morison was born in Peterborough, New Hampshire, Dec. 14, When he was three years old, his father died suddenly of yellow fever, at Natchez, Miss. He lived with his mother till he was eight years of age. The succeeding nine years of his life were spent on a farm, in a woolen mill, and in a machine-shop, though he attended school regularly in the winter. On the 1st of January, 1834, he entered Phillips(Exeter, N. H.) Academy, where he remained till August, 1836, when he was admitted to the sophomore class at Harvard College, having prepared for this advanced standing in two years and seven months. The following sketch of his life is taken from that very excellent work of Dr. Albert Smith's History of Peterborough, New Hampshire. As a student, young Morison was obliged to practice the most rigid economy in all his expenses, in dress, in board, in books, and in travelling. He once walked on the frozen ground, in December, from Peterborough to Exeter, a distance of sixty miles, the entire journey costing but the two cents paid for crossing the Merrimack at Thornton's Ferry. He carried a lunch in his pocket, and spent the night at the Rev. Jacob Abbot's, in Windham. Like most country boys of the period, he sought to increase his scanty means by teaching school in winter. He began his career as a schoolmaster in Peterborough, during his sophomore year. During the next winter he taught the village school in Grafton, Mass., and in he had charge of the high school at Scituate Harbor. His 5-33

34 life at school and college was a laborious one, but it was extremely pleasant. He was on terms of easy and agreeable intercourse with all his schoolmates and classmates, joining most of their societies and social gatherings. He was a member of the Golden Branch, at Exeter; and in college he joined the Institute of 1770, the Harvard Union, the Hasty Pudding Club, and the Phi Beta Kappa Society. Very early in life he had shown a fondness for poetic composition, and he was chosen by his schoolmates to write the ode for the exhibition at Exeter in 1835, and a song for the celebration of the Fourth of July by the students in At the annual exhibition of the academy in 1835 he was appointed to deliver an original English poem, and in 1886 an original Latin poem. In college he was chosen by his classmates to write the song for the class supper at the end of their sophomore year, and the ode for class day at the end of their senior year. He also delivered the poem before the Hasty Pudding Club in 1838 ; and he gained one of the Bowdoin prizes for English Composition the same year. He graduated in 1839, the third scholar in his class, having one of the orations for his part at commencement. Immediately after graduating, he went to Baltimore, to become the principal teacher in a fashionable girls' school which had just been opened in that city, and he remained in this position for nearly two years. In May, 1841, he opened a girls' school on his own account. In 1840, he, with his brother Horace, began the study of divinity with the Rev. Dr. G. W. Burnap, an accomplished biblical scholar and critic, under whom he continued until he had completed the full course of three years in theology. He was licensed to preach by the Cheshire Pastoral Association, which met at Keene in the summer of On the 22d of December, 1842, he married Sidney Buchanan Brown, of Baltimore. She belonged to the same Scotch-Irish race from which he was descended, her ancestors having settled near Carlisle, Penn. His school, which for an entire term consisted of two pupils, soon became so prosperous that he gradually gave up all idea of devoting himself to the ministry. He had preached only a few times and at irregular intervals. In a few years his school became the largest in the city, numbering at one time a hundred and forty pupils. For twenty years, including the war, when there was a great falling off of pupils, the average number of his scholars was 110, the largest private girls' school ever kept in the city for so long a period. Nearly a thousand ladies from the most intelligent families of Baltimore have received their education from him; and five of its private schools, among them its leading girls' school, are now (1875) taught by his pupils. His school had the reputation of being unusually strict in its government and rigorous in its requirements of serious study from its pupils. It therefore attracted few of those who were not disposed to learn. He was fond of his profession, and devoted to it all his energy and all the best powers of his mind ; and he was amply rewarded and cheered by constant manifestations of the respect and affection of his pupils, among whom he has formed some of the warmest friendships of his life. In 1867 he was invited to take charge of the Peabody Institute of Baltimore, which had been founded by George Peabody, of London, in 1857, and which has received from him an endowment of $1,240,000. His school was still in the full tide of success, and he long hesitated before he accepted this important but wholly unsolicited charge. He 5-34

35 received his appointment as provost of the institute in April, and entered upon his new duties in September, He devoted himself at once to the library, which then consisted of about 15,000 volumes of miscellaneous books, among which were very few of the great works which such a library should contain. Under his administration nearly 1200,000 have been spent in the purchase of books. The library now contains over 70,000 volumes, and is everywhere among scholars regarded as one of the best reference libraries in the country. Dr. Morison has for many years been a trustee of the First Independent Church of Baltimore. For twenty-seven years he was a member, and most of that time the superintendent, of its Sunday-school. He is one of the board of governors and visitors of St. John's College at Annapolis, from which, in 1871, he received the honorary degree of LL. D. When a volume, beautifully printed and illustrated, was issued in 1871, describing the representative men of Baltimore, he was selected as the "representative teacher" of the city, and a short sketch of his life, with a portrait, was placed in the book. In 1857, he purchased in Peterborough, N. H., the place now known as Bleak House, and fitted it up as a summer residence. His affection for his old home drew him back to the place of his birth, and for more than twenty years he and his family have spent at least three months of each summer amid the scenes so familiar and dear to his boyhood. When, in 1872, he gave up all interest in the school which he had established in Baltimore, and over which he had presided for a quarter of a century, he sent all his philosophical apparatus, which cost originally about 12,000, as a gift to the high school of his native town. In 1843 he published Three Thousand Questions in Geography, which passed through three editions, and is still used by some of the best schools in Baltimore. He also published a small book on Punctuation and Solecisms, of which an enlarged edition was printed in 1867, under the title of a School Manual. In 1871 he wrote a pamphlet on the management and objects of the Peabody Institute. Besides these, he has written twelve annual reports of the Peabody Institute, which have been printed for distribution among similar institutions elsewhere. They lived at Madison Street and Cathedral in Baltimore, Maryland. VI-168.

42 V-67. John Craig Boggs: ABEBD (John, I-1; William, II-2; William, III- 11; Isabella, IV-35) John C. was born Oct. 18, 1825 in Greencastle, Pennsylvania and died on May 28, By 1845 he was the manager of ironworks in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. Assumed the ironworks was owned by his uncle Charles Wharton, who at that time lived nearby. When news of the discovery of Gold in California in 1848, John C. decided to take the adventure of his life. His mother Isabella gave him a gift of $1000 for the journey. He boarded the ship Xylon and sailed around the horn to San Francisco. Arriving in San Francisco on Sept. 14, John quickly board a schooner for Sacramento. To his great surprise he stumbled upon his brother William Allison Boggs, whom he had not seen in four years. The brothers secured pack mules and supplies and walked forty miles into the foothills to Wood's Dry diggings; now Auburn, California. For three years John worked the mines in Placer, Nevada, and Yuba Counties. 6 In lieu of starvation John began a long career of Law Enforcement. The Gold Rush drew every scoundrel in the county and a large number of decent people to California to get rich. The decent people became the prey for the scoundrels who wants to get rich with less effort than with a shovel. From the book, Badge and Buckshot-Lawlessness in Old California: by John Boessenhecker, University of Oklahoma Press, Norman Oklahoma, dedicates the 1st Chapter to John Craig Boggs. Which, includes these quotes: In 1855 the San Francisco Alta reported that 370 homicides had occurred in California during the first eight months of that year. There were 36 lynching's and only 2 legal hangings. With a statewide population of less than 300,000, this is an annual rate of 185 homicides per 100,000 people, more than sixteen time California present homicide rate. The quote defines the problems and dangers of being a deputy at this time and place. If the lawmen were fortunate enough to capture a murderer, they came under attack by the decent people who wanted to lynch the criminals. The lynching's occurred with regularity, usually with no permanent damage to the lawmen. John married Lavisa C. Harrington in 1857 and had two children. Lavisa was born on Feb. 10, 1830 at Thomaston, Maine and died April 5, 1898 at Newcastle, Placer County, California. Besides being a Sherriff and Assessor of Placer County, marshal of Auburn, and postmaster; he at one time owned a tavern in Auburn, in 1863 he started a newspaper. Lavisa passed away in 1898 after forty one years of marriage. He remarried in 1899 to Alice S. Watson and lived to eighty three year of age, dying on May 28, Alice was born Jan. 26, 1851 in North Dakota and died Dec. 5, 1912 in Placer County, California. The following is from the "Find- A-Grave" Memorial for John Craig Boggs, author unknown: Born in Greencastle, Pennsylvania, on October 18, 1825, he was the fourth of eight children of a prominent physician, Educated in the common schools of Greencastle, 6 Badge and Buckshot-Lawlessness in Old California: John Boessenhecker, University of Oklahoma Press, Norman Oklahoma. 5-42

43 Boggs's brothers excelled in the classics and theology, and two of them became distinguished ministers of the Gospel. But young John was restless and adventuresome by nature, and school held little attraction for him. At age twenty he was appointed manager of an ironworks in Cumberland County, but when news of the California gold discovery reached the East Coast in December, 1848, Boggs saw his chance for the adventure of a lifetime. With a gift of $1,000 from his mother in his purse, he boarded the California-bound ship Xylon, Captain Brown, proved to be rough and overbearing, treating the passengers inhumanely and putting them on short rations of water. Boggs and two others were elected as a committee to deal with Brown, and they succeeded in persuading him to dock at Rio de Janeiro to take on water. When the ship landed, most of the passengers complained to the U.S. consul of Brown's conduct, and he and his mate were sent home in disgrace. "If J. Boggs is dead, I am satisfied." These few words, scrawled in pencil on a scrap of paper found clutched in the lifeless hand of Rattlesnake Dick, the notorious "Pirate of the Placers," speak volumes of the abject fear in which the road agents, mankillers, and sluice robbers of the mother lode held Placer County's once legendary constable and sheriff. From his shootout with Tom Bell's gang in 1856 to his capture of the men who perpetrated California's first train holdup in 1881, John Craig Boggs was the nemesis of some of the worst outlaws of the Old West. "Whole volumes might be written of the hairbreadth escapes and bloody fights in which Sheriff Boggs has figured," wrote one pioneer historian, adding, "Boggs seemed to bear a charmed life, for he fought these men wherever he found them, and always escaped without injury, although others were shot down besides him." In the 1860 census he is living in Auburn, with his wife and a daughter Isabella age 1. VI-207. Isabel Boggs: ABEBDA (John, I-1; William, II-2; William, III-11: Isabella, IV-35; John, V-67).

James Buchanan Spencer Boggs: ABEBE (John, I-1; William, II-2; William, III-11; Isabella, IV-35) James Buchanan Boggs, Attorney at Law and Master in Chancery, was born in Greencastle, Franklin County, Pennsylvania, October 20, 1828 and died July 12, 1903 at Galesburg, Knox County, Illinois. He is buried at the Hope Cemetery in Galesburg, Knox County, Illinois. His parents were John and Isabella Craig (Allison) Boggs, and were natives of Franklin County, 5-43

44 Pennsylvania. Both the father and the mother were intelligent and painstaking people and exhibited marked traits of character. They were of Scotch-Irish ancestry and seem to have inherited the stern morality of that race. J. B. Boggs availed himself of such opportunities for schooling in his youth as the district schools afforded. This preparation was supplemented by a thorough training at the academy. He studied law at Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, and in 1852, was admitted to the Bar. After leaving school, he was first engaged in teaching, and afterwards took charge of the Chestnut Grove Iron Furnace. His first law practice was at Loudon and McConnellsburg. In 1856, he came to Galesburg, where has been his home ever since. Mr. Boggs is a man of ability and of fine presence. In forming opinions, he is cautious, and is not biased by prejudicial instincts. His nature is benevolent and open, to be read of all men. To him, right doing and right living are instinctive. The places of honor that he has been called to fill have been deservedly won. He filled the office of City Attorney in , and was elected Alderman from 1879 to He was appointed Master in Chancery in 1871 and has held the office for 36 years, until his death. According to his means, he has favored every public enterprise that has been for the interest of the city of his adoption. For several years, he has been the president of the Galesburg Printing Company, and a charter member of the Homestead and Loan Association and its attorney. He belongs to the Masonic Order, though not an active member at present. He has also been connected with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows since Mr. Boggs is a firm believer in the tenets of the Presbyterian faith and his life has always been in harmony with that church. All its laws and ordinances are to him sacred and these he has kept blameless. His political affiliations are with the republicans. Although his time is employed principally in the Chancery Court, yet he has never failed to do his duty as a worker for the success of republican principles. He was united in marriage at Galesburg, October 5, 1858, to Susan Cornelia Weeks, daughter of Benjamin Weeks. Eight children were born to them, three of whom are living, Isabel Allison, Elizabeth Wharton (Dunn), and Henry Hurd.

Daughter #1 (Eliza Ann Allison): AEABA (John, I-1; John, II-5; Patrick, III-18; William, IV-50) The oldest daughter, I have not been able to account for, she was born about 1816 to All I know about Daughter #1 is that William and Margaret had three daughters by the 1820 census (Enumeration date: April 2, 1821). An Eliza Allison is listed as head of household in the 1850 Monroe County, Missouri census; being 34 years of age (born 1816). The 1900 census of Jackson Township, Monroe County, Missouri lists Eliza living with her son and born in Dec. of The William Allison family moved from Cabell County, West Virginia to Monroe County, Missouri in Most of the Allison records in Monroe County are for the family of William Allison. Eliza Ann Allison is potentially one of the daughters born 1820 or before. I am trying to determine if she is a daughter, that possibly she retained her family name and had children out of wedlock. The second possibility is she married and Allison, who died young. Although, I am not aware of a male member to this family that would make her a daughter-inlaw. The following is a chronology of the events involving Whitaker and Allison families: Giles Whitaker and Children Eliza Ann Allison and Children 1840 Census: Giles William Joseph Amos Frances M Census: Giles (age 37) Eliza (age 34) Sarah (age 26) Rebecca J. Allison (age 12) Levi (age 2) John H. Allison (age 10) William (age 14) Joseph (age 11) 5-58

59 Amos (age 9) Mary F. (age 7) 1860 Census: Giles (age 50) Eliza (age 39) Mary (age 17) Rebecca J. Allison (age 18) Levi (age 13) John Allison (age 16) Robert (age 8) Harvey (age 8) John (age 5) Mearinda (age 3) 1870 Census: Giles (age 60) Eliza (age 51) Robert (age 19) Harvy (age 17) John (age 16) Maranda (age 16) Thomas (age 8) Foster (age 7) Rebecca Jane (age 30) 1880 Census: Giles (age 70) Matilda (age 61) Rebecca Jane (age 39) Foster (age 16) Thomas (age 18) In 1850 census Eliza, had a daughter Rebecca Jane 12 years of age and born in Kentucky, also a son John 10 years of age 10 and born in Kentucky. In the 1850 census she is living near William and Margaret in Jackson Township. Monroe County records state that Rebecca Jane Allison daughter of Eliza married Joseph Whitaker, son of Giles, on Aug. 7, The following August, Rebecca s mother Eliza married Joseph s father (Giles). I assume Joseph died in the late 1860 s, Rebecca and her son, Foster, are living with Giles and Matilda, including Rebecca s brother-in-law Thomas. Eliza Ann Allison married Giles Whitaker on Aug. 12, 1863 in Monroe County, Missouri. The 1870 Monroe County census lists Giles and Eliza Ann born in Kentucky and 60 and 51 years old respectfully, with seven children. Eliza Ann would have been would have been 44 years old when she married Giles. The 1900 census of Monroe County, Missouri lists Eliza Whittaker (born Dec. 1820) living with her son John (born Jan. 1841), his wife Sarah, and grandson John H. (born Feb. 1876). I assume by the time of the 1900 census Giles and Foster have died. In the 1910 census Eliza Ann and daughter Rebecca Jane are living with John H. and Sarah and listing her date of birth as The age is correct, the continuing of the family name John H. is correct, being listed in the 1850 census with her maiden name and children does not seem reasonable. 5-59

John moved to Missouri with his parent s circa 1838 at 9 years of age. The 1850 Monroe County, Missouri census lists John H. age 22 living with his parents. John H. married Elizabeth J. Pollard on Sept. 26, 1852 in Monroe County, Missouri. John H. 's first two children were born in Monroe County, Missouri. It would appear that John H. moved to Lewis County, Missouri after his marriage in 1852 and prior to the death of his daughter Julia Jane (Aug. 27, 1858) who is buried at the Dover Cemetery in Lewis County Missouri. A John, Hans, and Richard Allison enlist in the Civil War on Mar. 31, 1865 only a week before Lee surrendered to Grant.

Information received from Elizabeth Belle Allison gives Elizabeth s date of birth as Feb. 20, 1836 in Kentucky and died Feb. 14, Trying to determine Elizabeth s ancestry has been elusive, but there appears to be at least three Pollard families in Monroe County at the time of the 1840 census and two additional families in the 1850 census. 1. C. F. Pollard (born between 1800 and 1810) of Marion Township had two daughter born between 1835 and James Pollard (born between 1810 and 1820) of Marion Township, Monroe County, Missouri had a daughter born between 1835 and

As a wagon was returning from Quincy with Eli Gbarkey, his wife, and a young man named Hans Allison, they encountered a severe wind and hail storm. When they were nearly opposite the Collins Place a large tree on the roadside suddenly fell upon the wagon, crushing it and instantly killing Allison and Mrs. Gbarkey and severely if not fatally injuring Gbarkey.
