7154	In Dakota County Tribune paper 11-1935. She had been seriously ill for three weeks at the local hospital and her death was not unexpected. Seldom has one been called from our midst who was held in greater esteem than Elvira Hagen as she was called by her friends. She was always ready to assist others in any possible way and she was a true friend to all. Funeral services were held Monday at 1:30 from the home and 2:00 from the West Christiania Lutheran Church, interment being in the adjoining cemetery. Rev. A. T. Juvland, pastor, officiated. Lawrence Elstad sang "Heaven Is My Home" at the house and two solos at the church "Come Ye Desconsolate" and a Norwegian hymn. Mrs. Elstad was the accompanist. The funeral was largely attended and the profusion of floral offerings testified to the love and esteem in which the deceased was held. Pallbearers were six cousins: Freeman Wahl, Carl Johnson, Jr. Herman and Edman Storlie, Lawrence and Sylvester Thompson.

7157	In her autobiography Nina does not elaborate on her marriage except to say he died young. "He enters her story making visits to her parents house, visits which increase in frequency, and, in her words, "ended as most such visits do, in a trip to the hymeneal altar." Note: Marcus died in 1896 at the age of 68. Note: When Marcus was enumerated in the 1850 census at Ripon, WI it included a Mrs. M.D. Larrowe, age 36 (ie: 1838), born in Vermont. There is no record of Marcus having a wife prior to marrying Nina in 1864. Nina always lied about her age but I can find no record of her ever being east of Iowa during this time period. So, Mrs M.D. Larrowe remains a mystery.	Family: Marcus Dwight LARROWE / Nina CHURCHMAN (F3707)

7173	In settling the estate of William A. Scott a newspaper article sought to find the following people: Sarah N. Scott, Jesse Carl Scott, Goldie Eliza (Baxter) Scott; Mrs. John J. Quinn, and Mrs. Cary H. Fleishman. It seems possible that some of these people may be family of William's. I do see the following in the 1900 census at Indianapolis, Marion, IN. William Scott, 38, b. Feb 1862, married 18 years, b. IN, parents b. VA/IN, livery man; Maggie, 32, 1 child born/ 1 living, b. Nov 1867, b. KY, parents b. KY/KY; Jessie C., 13, b. Apr 1877.	SCOTT, William A. (I23790)

7180	In the book, I identified Thomas Savage, the “Carpenter” as the same Thomas Savage who arrived on the Ship, Ambrose in 1623 and who was the indentured servant to one William Gany.

MUSGRAVE Registrar	KELLOGG, Martin (I1782)
7183	In trying to confirm this family I have found the following census records: 1790 in Exeter, Berks Co., PA John Neukirk: Free White Males 16 and over, 2; Free White Males under 16, 1; Free White Females, 6 1800 in Exeter, Berks Co., PA John Neykirk: Free White Males (FWM) under 10, 1; FWM 10 thru 15, 1; FWM 45 and over, 1. Free White Females (FWF) 10 thru 15, 2; FWF 16 thru 25, 2; FWF 45 and over, 1. John Neykirk, Jr.: Free White Males (FWM) 16 thru 25, 1. Free White Females (FWF) 16 thru 25, 1. 1810 in Wythe Co., VA John Newchurch: Free White Males (FWM) under 10, 3; FWM 10 thru 15, 2; FWM 16 thru 25, 2; 45 and over, 1. Free White Females (FWF) under 10, 2; FWF 26 thru 44, 1. None of the numbers seems to exactly fit the family as portrayed in the Chris Lewis Family File but the places, names and even the numbers are pretty close.	NEUKIRCH, John (I17856)
7184	In trying to figure out the parentage of Julia Purcell I have found the following. The 1870 census in Paris, Howard, IA shows two Julia Purcell's, one a daughter of Michael and Eliza born ca 1867 and one a daughter of Joseph and Bridget born ca 1863. The latter Julia seems to fit the profile of "my" Julia. The 1860 census lists/enumerates the above families side by side. Jeremiah Ahern marries Catherine/Kate Purcell, daughter of Michael and Eliza. I think that Michael and Joseph are probably brothers and that Julia who married Edward is probably the daughter of Joseph. Will have to work on proving this.	PURCELL, Julia (I11026)

Near the time of her death, about 1994 my mother corresponded some with Irma and her daughter, Vicki, at that time she said she had written another book, "Never Trust a Woman Over 90 - She Has Nothing To Lose."	CRAWFORD, Irma Fay (I398)
7199	Irma sent me the following, she said it was her response to Nancy Speck (61.1.1.1) regarding family history. "My father didn't like to talk about his life with his people, though he told many stories of his life alone after he left home as a bachelor in Montana and Wyoming. He was a guide in the Yellowstone Park, or rather he drove a stage there. He carried mail in Wyoming and said often the Indians would watch him and travel along with him at a short distance, but they never bothered him. He rode horseback and just made the trip once a month. One winter he was snowed in a cabin alone for two months and that was when he read the Bible, really studied it and decided it was full of lies and contradictions so he never cared to go to church. He said his father (Francis Marion Crawford) might be called an interior decorator, he had some kind of store for a time where he sold furniture. Willard said once that I might have gotten some of my artistic desire from his father. Grandma Crawford (Nancy Rebecca Dailey), as I always called her seemed to be a woman of character, I stayed with her for a week or so while I was 10 years old. I recall how neat she kept her little house. She had a cistern outside and got all her water from that. She told me she never drank straight water, she always kept a coffee pot on the back of the stove and had coffee instead of water all day when she got thirsty. She lived near her daughter, (the mother of Wadena Phillips (#61.1.1) , the mother of Nancy Rebecca Speck.) and helped her look after her children, as she was a widow. ((note: The mother of Martha Wadena Phillips was NOT Nancy Rebecca's daughter but rather her daughter-in-law, Mayetta Bell Long, widow of Nancy Rebecca's son Edward Arthur Phillips, #61.1)). My father had many hurts in connection with his mother, it seemed that no one approved of her marrying her cousin, Edward Arthur Phillips, their mothers were sisters. Sally and Mary Deweese. Also, he must have been an alcoholic, as he used to excuse Arthur, who committed suicide and was drunk, I remember, at my father's funeral, by saying he took after his father. Oh yes, now I remember it was Arthur's wife that lived by Grandma, it was Howard that was drunk at Willard's funeral. His two sisters were Cora and Della, Della was Mildred's mother. He loved them, but disliked his half brothers and mother seemed to think they were the reason he left home to go west, but I don't know exactly what age he was when he left. When mother met him he was 14 years older than she was. He could even have been married in those years, but if he was it was a secret. He had a terrible hurt against his brother, Harley, because for 20 years he never contacted his mother, never sent her any money, though he had moved to California and had a nice home near Whittier. When I was about 10 he decided to forgive Harley and go visit him. He and his wife belonged to a radical religous sect, the Weslian Methodists, or something, and he had even less respect for him after he knew that, as he had been so unkind to his mother. Willard was very close to his brother Elmer, he talked of him more than anyone, understood and loved him with a deep affection. He loved his sister, Neva, and sent her money when Mother needed it to buy groceries, so Mother had a deep resentment of her. That resentment grew when we visited her in their 4-bedroom home in Bedfort (sic), Iowa, and found how well off they were, yet had never returned any of the money. When we were very poor in the Ozarks my father wrote of our poverty and they sent no money, but a huge box of fancy (that was what mother called them) clothes. For a while I was the best dressed little girl in our community, I had a hat with a big plume and high buttoned, thin shoes which didn't fit." Nancy Rebecca did marry her first cousin, but his name was Isaac Phillips, Edward Arthur Phillips was their son.	CRAWFORD, John Willard (I395)
7200	Isaac Kennan, Yeoman, in consideration of 50 Pounds Sterling, conveys to George Kennan of Charlemont, gentleman, 50 acres of land on the bank of Deerfield River.	KENNON, Isaac (I5460)
