IOOF - Elijah C. Bressler, age 26 y's 11 m's 13 d's, died in South Salem, "suicide by shooting himself";
OBITUARY:
ELIJAH BRESSLER COMMITS SUICIDE IN SOUTH SALEM.
From the Testimony of Witnesses He Was Temporarily Insane.
At about 8 o’clock yesterday morning Elijah Bressler, aged about 26 years, committed suicide at the residence of himself and brother on the Independence road in South Salem. The deed was done with a single-barrel No. 12 smooth-bore shotgun and the charge entered the top of the head a little to the left and ranged down and forward.
Immediately after this happened a young man named Herman Brown hurried to the court house and notified Sheriff Knight. This officer at once went to the house and there found the body of Bressler lying in exactly the same place where it fell.
The coroner at Gervais was notified of the affair and he called upon Justice Jas. Batchelor to conduct an inquest. The official impanelled R. E. Cannon, C. C. Sarvis, S. P. Wadtkins, C. W. Benson, J. F. Biggs, and J. Macey to sit as a coroner’s jury.
The residence where the young man committed the act was thoroughly investigated and the position of the body also. Then it was decided to remove the body to the undertaking rooms of A. M. Clough, on State street, and there examine the witnesses and hold a post-mortem examination of the remains, if deemed necessary.
The witnesses summoned to appear were Geo. Bressler, the deceased’s father, Joseph Bressler, his brother, Edith Bressler, his wife, Francis Bressler, his sister-in-law, Herman brown, and E. Cooper.
At 1 o’clock Drs. J. N. Smith and Lane were called to hold the post-mortem and their report was to the effect that the deceased "came to his death from the effects of a gun-shot wound, received in the head, which shot entered the top of the head a little to the left and ranged down and forward."
Joseph Bressler was the first witness called. He has been a resident of Oregon about 15 years, he moved into the same house occupied by his brother on Monday last, his brother, he said, was aged about 26 years and had been a resident of that portion of Salem since October last. At the time of the shooting he was sitting by the kitchen stove. He noticed his brother take the gun down from the rack on the wall and he never said anything as to what he intended to do with it. Then his brother went into his bedroom and told his family that he intended to take his gun and clothes and go away. He came out into the kitchen a few feet and resting the stock of the gun on the floor held the end of the barrel in his left hand and with a stick in his right touched the hammer and the gun was discharged. He partially sank on his knees and fell over backward. His wife was standing near the stove in the room used as the kitchen. Just as he leaned over the muzzle of the gun he was heard to say "here goes." The young man had caused some trouble during Thursday night by appearing to become temporarily insane. About 11 p.m. his wife was awakened by his loud ravings and frequent calls for his gun. She got him quieted and then arose and went and took the gun down from the rack on the wall and asked that it be hid in his (Joseph Bressler’s) bedroom. He said that he noticed whenever his brother had employment he was quiet but, generally, when not engaged he seemed to be taken with fits of rage. Joseph said his brother was always of a quarrelsome disposition. Immediately upon the shot being fired he rushed out of the house and started to notify his parents who reside a short distance away. The jury questioned him quite closely regarding any trouble between himself and his brothers, but did not succeed in eliciting much information on that point.
Eda Bressler, the deceased’s wife, was called. She has been his wife a little over a year. She stated that her husband got up yesterday morning and built a fire and then went over to his father’s place. Returning he took the gun down and loaded it and then shot himself. (She described how he held the gun.) Her husband awakened her Thursday night about 11 o’clock by his wild talk in reference to wanting his gun. She managed to quiet him and then went and told his brother what had happened and the gun was taken down from the wall and she hid it in her brother-in-law’s room. She told him that she would get his gun in the morning. After he left the house to go to his father’s home she went and brought the gun out and placed it back on the rack. During the night he often said "that his gun was his best friend." One time when they attended a dance together at a neighbor’s house her husband refused to enter into the dance and when she accepted an invitation to dance one number he afterwards abused her by calling her vile names and seemed to be most jealous of her thereafter.
Her husband frequently called for his knife during the night when he learned that he could not have the gun. She slipped the knife out of his pocket and also hid it In the morning when he was absent from the room she took the knife and laid it on the floor by the bed. By this he would think the knife fell from his pocket and he would not become enraged by reason of supposing that she concealed it from him. She was afraid that he might kill her also while in his mad spells.
Frances Bressler’s testimony consisted of about the same statements as the above.
George Bressler, father of the deceased, said that his son came to his residence early yesterday morning and appeared to be in a despondent mood. He made the remark to his parents that he had but one friend and that "was his gun." He was talked to in a manner by his folks that was intended to discourage such an idea and later he started on his return home. Soon afterwards he heard the report of a gun and then saw his son Joseph coming towards his home. He went to where his dead son was lying on the floor of the kitchen.
The evidence of Brown and Cooper was then taken.
Andrew Coss, chief engineer of the Salem fire department, had been one of the number to visit the scene of the shooting ad he had discovered where some shot had entered the ceiling of the kitchen. He dug them out and brought them to one of the jurymen. His evidence was taken concerning this.
Another witness was subpoenaed and his testimony will be heard by the jury at 10 a.m. today, adjournment having been taken till then.
The deceased leaves (besides his wife) one child. The body is now lying in a rude coffin at Mr. Clough’s undertaking parlors and will be given burial soon after the coroner’s jury reaches a verdict.
The gun and the empty shell, and a nickel open-face watch with leather chain, a knife, a couple of loaded cartridges taken from his pocket and some other small articles are in the charge of Justice Batchelor.
It is evident that someone of the jury suspicions that Bressler did not commit suicide - that someone murdered him. The family and relatives of the deceased did not exhibit the feelings of sadness that are generally expected under such circumstances, but it seems impossible to establish such a crime upon any one of them. It is almost certain that sufficient evidence cannot be brought out on that point.

Oaths of Allegiance 1777 Pittsylvania County, Virginia
NOTE: Hugh Reynolds and his son Joseph are found on this 1777 list. Hugh's son William, is not listed with them; however the record for his service is found in Virginia County Records and is also dated 1777. Joseph's Baptism of 15 Aug 1759 gives us his age. William is also shown on court records in 1788 when he inherits the land of his grandfather, William Neeley. Both Joseph and William are Qualified as Executors (Book 6/170 Pittsylvania Co., Virginia Court Records 1787-91)
Another record dated 22 Mar 1796 for William Reynolds and Charles Lewis must be our William, as the other William Reynolds of Culpepper has died in 1791. No connecton has been documented for William of Culpepper having any connection to the Hugh Reynolds family. -Mary Frances Reynolds | Reynolds, William (I68175)

Oaths of Allegiance 1777 Pittsylvania County, Virginia
NOTE: Hugh Reynolds and his son Joseph are found on this 1777 list. Hugh's son William, is not. Joseph's Baptism of 15 Aug 1759 gives us his age. If William is the younger son, he may not have been of 'age' at this time. I suspect 16, may have been the age for boys to give their OATH. If so, we may suppose that William, s/o Hugh did not become of 'age' in 1777. William is shown on court records in 1788 when he inherits the land of his grandfather, William Neeley. Both Joseph and William are Qualified as Executors (Book 6/170 Pittsylvania Co., Virginia Court Records 1787-91)

Obituary for Alexander D. Beck from the 07.March.1912 issue of "The Unique Weekly" of Risingsun, Ohio.
"Alexander D. Beck was born June 19, 1831, and departed this life March 2, 1912, aged 80 years, 8 months and 11 days. He was married four times. He leaved one son, J.H. Beck of Wills Point, Texas, a number of grandchildren and a widow, Mary J. Beck.
He was a member of Company B, 31st Indiana Infantry, and was a member of W.C. County Post, 476 G.A.R. of West Millgrove, Ohio.
He joined church at about the age of 20 years, and while not having a church near at hand he did not have any opportunity to attend church much, but during his last illness he spoke often of his church and desired if possible to have a minister of the Church of Christ or the Disciple Church.
The funeral was held Tuesday morning at West Millgrove, conducted by Rev. Smith of Prairie Depot. Interment made in West Millgrove Cemetery."
[From "Beck & Tittle Footprints" by Nell Truitt prepared 01.October.1998]:
Alexander D. Beck's birth is recorded in the Beck family Bible which is the possession of Dr. Robert J. Beck in 1998. "Elick" as he was lovingly called in his youth, was the first son born to his parents and he shared the name of his maternal grandfather, Alexander, a Scotch-Irish Baptist. Therefore, we assume the middle initial "D" was for Devin.
A.D. Beck, listed in the 1880 Texas Census, named North Carolina as his father's birthplace, and indicated his mother's birthplace was unknown. Alexander was eighteen month old when his mother, Susan, died giving birth to his younger brother, John J. Beck. Alexander never really knew his mother. His father married Rebecca Barker two years after his mother died. She raised the young boys and their sisters and gave birth to five more children by Andrew.
Evidently, Alexander grew up in the vicinity of Beck's Mill, a small settlement in Howard Township, southern Washington County, south of Salem Indiana, where his grandfather, George Beck, Sr. had brought his family from North Carolina in 1807. Alexander's father was 13 years old in 1808 when the family made their home in the vicinity of Organ Spring along Mill Creek and built a fifteen foot square log-structure, grist mill.
Growing up on Beck's Hill, Andrew M. may have seen many exciting times, as Indians came to the settlement and professed great freindship for their "white brother." They were given food and meal, and in the night, they would take the horses. Young Alexander D. Beck learned to read and write at the small school, built in 1811 at Beck's Hill, and helped his father at the mill and on their farm in many ways.
Alexander Beck is listed wtih his family in the 1850 Census Index, page 101 of Washington County, Indiana at age 19 and is listed in the 1860 census in Martin County, Indiana. As a young man 21, in 1854, he went to Kaufman County, Texas, with his father and step-mother when they left Indiana and located there. However, he was in Lawrence County, Indiana the following year where he married Mrs. Catherin Horsey Greenwood. She gave birth to his four children.
Alexander D. Beck served in the Civil War. On the 26th day of September, 1864, he was drafted and enrolled at Columbus, Indiana as a Private in Co. B - 31st Regiment of the Indiana infantry. He served for a few months at Lick Creek, Tennessee. He began suffering from Chronic Diarrhea and Rheumatish there, spent time in the hospitals in Nashville, Tennessee and Jeffersonville, Indiana and was released. All the remainder of his life he had some problems with this diarrhea, as evidenced in his Pension Paper filed in 1891-1898.
After his wife, Catherine, died, Alexander married Sarah Francis Survance, who raised his three remaining children. The family placed their belongings into an ox-drawn wagon and made the long trip to what is now Wills Point, Van Zandt County, Texas. After Sarah's death, A.D. Beck married Mrs. Lucy F. (Cole) Palmer, age 34. She died ten months after they were married. Alexander then wed Mrs. Mary Jane (Mackey) Russell in Wills Point, Texas. Within a year, they left and moved to the Mackey Estate (her parent's property) in West Millgrove, Ohio.
Alexander's burial place is in River View Cemetery, Wood County, Ohio. A large and stately gravestone marks this serene place. On Memorial Day each year, a silver star with the inscription GAR 1861-1865 is placed beside hsi stone, indicating his service in the Civil War - Grand Army of the Republic.

Obituary:
Stayton, OR - On Saturday morning, April 20th, Helen Eunice Sachet passed away peacefully in her room at Mountain Creek Care Home in Stayton, Oregon. Her family and friends will keep her in their hearts and memories as a loving and hard working teacher, mother, grand- and great-grandmother.
Helen was born on October 2, 1917 in Richfield, Idaho to Fountain and Eunice Stewart. She became an adult during the Great Depression, and married Frank Sachet just prior to the start of World War II. Helen, Frank and six children lived in the Scio area from 1950 into the 1970's. Frank passed away in 1971. In 1995, Helen moved from her home & three acres on Thomas Creek to Stayton to be closer to her daughter Fran Thomas and her support resources. Helen is survived by five children and their families including twelve grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren, most of whom live in the Pacific Northwest.
Upon retirement from teaching at Scio High School and working for the State of Oregon, Helen spent her time volunteering with the local library, historical and art organizations, genealogy research, traveling, painting, crafts, and participating in the local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR). Helen recently completed her tenth year as a member of DAR. As a member of the Greatest Generation, she was a living example of dedication to thrift, hard work, public service, generosity, education and laughter. She retained her wit and memories through age 95. Helen attributed her survival into her 90's, not to having been a redhead, but to ?good genes' and frequent helpings of ice cream.
A memorial service to celebrate Helen's life and times will be held at a later date. Private interment will be in Franklin Butte Cemetery, Scio. Contributions may be made in Helen's name to the Scio Historical Society, Stayton Public Library Foundation, or Daughters of the American Revolution Chapter 7-045-OR. Serving the family, North Santiam Funeral Service, Stayton. | Stewart, Helen Eunice (I0152)

NI078026] JAMES HAGGARD, A SCHOOLTEACHER
(NOTE: These facts are copied this 17th day of August 1904 by Alfred M. Haggard and Finch Haggard from memoranda in the possession of Melvin Haggard Desoto, IA. He secured this from David Gentry Haggard within the last 5 years.)
A book by David Dawson Haggard Published in 1899 states that James Haggard is the first known Haggard in America. He migrated to America about 1699 when he landed in Norfolk, Norfolk County, VA. He is said to have been educated for the ministry but upon arriving in Virginia was put to teaching school. Among his pupils was Elizabeth Gentry, born about 1685, a daughter of Nicholas Gentry, Sr. They eloped to NC where they had a large family. Later they returned to Eastern Virginia. Some records show that James Haggard married Mabel Gentry, sister to Elizabeth, in 1721. That would imply that the last four children were from this union.
1678 -- James Haggard, (identified in the book by David Dawson Haggard) "The traditions of our fathers are that one James Haggard, born ca. 1678, Bradenham Hall, England, son of a wealthy aristocratic Lord of England, was educated for the ministry. He joined the English Army as a private against his father's wishes. Lord Haggard felt that the family's social status would warrant a commission) so Lord Haggard paid handsomely to have young James Haggard smuggled out of England aboard a merchant vessel bound for Norfolk, Norfolk County, VA. The unscrupulous captain knowing Lord Haggard would never admit to such a scheme threw young James Haggard in with other indentured servants and sold a contract for his services to a wealthy planter, thus collecting for James' passage twice. Young James Haggard landed in Norfolk, Norfolk County, VA, ca. 1698 (prior to his 21st birthday).
"The wealthy planter finding young James Haggard well educated put him to teaching school. There was connected with this school a young woman whose charms so impressed him that they eloped to NC and were married since it was illegal for a bonded servant to marry in Virginia. They had a large family including: Nathaniel, Edmund, Zechariah, and Gray or Granville."
1678 James Haggard, (identified in the book by David Dawson Haggard) "The traditions of our fathers are that one James Haggard, born ca. 1678, Bradenham Hall, England, son of a wealthy aristocratic Lord of England, was educated for the ministry. He joined the English Army as a private against his father's wishes. Lord Haggard felt that the family's social status would warrant a commission) so Lord Haggard paid handsomly to have young James Haggard smuggled out of England aboard a merchant vessel bound for Norfolk, Norfolk County, VA. The unscruplous captain knowing Lord Haggard would never admit to such a scheme threw young James Haggard in with other indentured servants and sold a contract for his services to a wealthy planter, thus collecting for James' passage twice. Young James Haggard landed in Norfolk, Norfolk County, VA, ca. 1698 (prior to his 21st birthday).

There was connected with this school a young woman whose charms so impressed him that they eloped to NC and were married since it was illegal for a bonded servant to marry in Virginia.

James Hoggard/Haggard, son of Anthony Hoggard, identified in 1723 Over-wharton Parish, Stafford County, VA, as a tobacco planter with three sons. Nearest neighbors, also tobacco planters, were James French and William Rice. The book by David Dawson Haggard identifies him as a schoolteacher with four sons. Records in the same area include two others believed to be brothers of those named. Mr. Leland Gentry identifies James Haggard's wife as Elizabeth Gentry, baptised 29 August 1687, St. Peter's Parish, New Kent County, VA, daughter of Nicholas Gentry.

Odna was born in Missouri U.S.A. When she was nine months old, her parents moved the family to northern Wallawa County, Oregon, to start a homestead. They left Missouri in a boxcar on 15 September 1890. They left the train in La Grande, Oregon and went by horse and wagon to their homestead. The trip took nineteen days and was very hard on the baby girl. -- From "The Flora Country" by Ira Holmes Devin.
Odna was a "jolly, good-natured little tyke and was pretty much 'daddy's girl'." -- From "The Flora Country". She lived in her family's 14 by 14 foot log cabin on the homestead until her death in 1892.
The following story about her accident and death is paraphrased from "The Flora Country: The Hardships and Struggles of the Matt Devin Family as Pioneers in Northern Wallowa County, Oregon" written by Ira Holmes Devin (Odna's younger brother)
During the afternoon of 14 June 1892, Odna was sitting on a chair eating a piece of bread and jam when somehow she fell and bumped her head. It did not seem to hurt her much. She whimpered a little and went on with her playing. She played until quite late that night and she seemed all right when her mother put her to bed.
At daybreak the next morning (15 June 1892), Odna's father, Matt Devin, was going to Walla Walla, Washington to find work in the harvest. He bid goodbye to his other children and started to wake Odna to wish her goodbye. Eliza (Odna's mother) told him to let her sleep, so he just kissed her and left with his wagon and team of horses.
Eliza went to wake Odna about nine-thirty that morning. Odna seemed limp and listless, so Eliza gave her a sponge bath. Eliza worked with Odna, but Odna seemed to get worse in spite of everything Eliza tried. Eliza sent Gene and Bertha to the neighbors for help. The only doctor was at La Grande, Oregon; one hundred miles away. The neighbors came, but there was nothing they could do. Odna continued to get worse and had one or two convulsions. She went into a coma and passed away about three o'clock that afternoon.
A rider was sent to overtake Matt. The rider found Matt at Elgin, Oregon, the next afternoon (16 June). Arrangements had been made for a relay of horses, so Matt could ride back. As soon as Matt heard the news, he jerked the harness off of the horses, and threw a saddle on his horse, Molly. He rode her back to Wallowa; reaching there about midnight. Matt changed horses three times between Wallowa and the homestead. He rode eighty miles in sixteen hours; returning on 17 June. He was tired and had taken an "awful beating" riding strange saddles that did not fit him.
They buried Odna in the Flora cemetary. On the headstone are these words: "Odna, Born December 7, 1889; Died, June 15, 1892. Gone, But Not Forgotten."
Odna's death was a terrible shock to Matt and Eliza. Eliza later said that they had endured many hardships, but losing Odna seemed like more than they could possibly bear. Matt said it was the hardest thing that he ever faced was leaving the family the day after to pick up his wagon, and go on to harvest, knowing he would never see little Odna again.
On the morning of 18 June, Matt left for the harvest, again. He was so sore he could hardly ride, so he would ride awhile, then walk. He got back to Elgin, Oregon by mid-afternoon on 19 June and continued his trip to Walla Walla. | Devin, Odna (I0023)
