2 CONT A tribute to J.C. & Libby Wemple from DFD
2 CONT by Dave F. Dozier, M.D.:
2 CONT 
2 CONT This tribute is written for the descendants of two of the most wonderf
2 CONC ul parents anyone could ever know of.  Often it is difficult for child
2 CONC ren to write with the freedom which others may use in telling of a pre
2 CONC cious home and the life therein. Having known the family for seventy y
2 CONC ears, I want to tell of the life in this blessed home.  Such was was t
2 CONC he home of Jay and Libby.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jay Wemple and Libby Decious both grew up in Milford and attended th
2 CONC e Milford School.  Grandfather Joseph Wemple named the town and in fac
2 CONC t bought the land which became the base of all the Wemple ranches fro
2 CONC m Peter Lassen himself.*  Truly, this is the story of the beautiful lo
2 CONC ve between husband and wife which thrived as long as life permitted
2 CONC .  Every child was wanted, made welcome and secure within the family a
2 CONC nd the older brothers and sisters.  No one knowing the family ever beh
2 CONC eld a more close knit, happy and affectionate family group - all for e
2 CONC ach and each for all!  There were ten children - five boys and five gi
2 CONC rls.  God called one little fellow early in life and one fine son wa
2 CONC s called in the full glow of manhood.  As this is written, in 1984, th
2 CONC e eight surviving are all known to be fine men and gracious ladies who
2 CONC se friendship is cherished by all who know them. In the early years i
2 CONC t was Jay's great joy after chores were done, to come into the house a
2 CONC nd pick up the youngest, bringing coos and laughs from the infant whil
2 CONC e Libby and the daughters, who were learning priceless cooking skills
2 CONC , readied the evening meal.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The home was a large two story ranch home with generous room for all
2 CONC . And what living and what wonderful food, most of which came right fr
2 CONC om the ranch itself, with chickens, eggs and milk; beef, pork, and lam
2 CONC b; hams, bacon, and sausage expertly prepared by Jay and the boys.  Th
2 CONC ere was a large garden behind the house from which came berries an
2 CONC d a large variety of vegetables which were used fresh, put into dozen
2 CONC s of glasses and jars, or in large bins in the basement cellar.  Fro
2 CONC m the orchard came cherries, apricots, peaches, and a variety of apple
2 CONC s all to be handled in a similar manner.  There was always fresh bake
2 CONC d bread, biscuits, hot cakes, cakes, pies, and doughnuts as only Libb
2 CONC y and her daughters could turn out.  Of course jams, jellies and prese
2 CONC rves to match.  Butter churned on the ranch, plenty of cream, plus ic
2 CONC e from Honey Lake** stored and brought out from the icehouse for the m
2 CONC aking of glorious ice cream in the summer.
2 CONT 
2 CONT What a wonderful life replete with so many products of the land and al
2 CONC l under the mantle of parental, filial and sibling love seen but rarel
2 CONC y. In these later years it is truly wonderful to see the genuine affec
2 CONC tion within all members of the families, the happy friendships and lov
2 CONC e, each and every one for the others.  To have been born a child of Ja
2 CONC y and Libby is to have been truly blest.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Compiler's note: * (1) Joseph C. Wemple bought land from Fairfield an
2 CONC d Whiting, not Peter Lassen.
2 CONT ** (2) Ice was not cut off Honey Lake, as the water was always murky
2 CONC . Rather, it was cut off the reservoirs and saved in ice houses insula
2 CONC ted with saw dust. (3)The author of this note, Doctor Dave Dozier, a
2 CONC s a high school boy, spent a summer with Jay and Libby working on th
2 CONC e ranch for Jay. Doctor Dozier later married Jay and Libby's daughter

2 CONT 
2 CONT A man of local prominence.  He was a successful rancher and farmer. Du
2 CONC ring the Great Depression, he took over his father's property when th
2 CONC e bank was threatening to foreclose and take over the family farm. Hi
2 CONC s father had obtained the property from Claude's grandfather, Joseph C
2 CONC rawford Wemple. After taking it over, Claude built this farming busine
2 CONC ss up from about 500 acres of farm land to over 1000 acres of tilled f
2 CONC arm land and another 3900 acres of grazing land.  At the height of hi
2 CONC s operation, he ran about 400 head of cows and another 300 head of hei
2 CONC fers and steers he was readying for market.  His business practices we
2 CONC re beyond reproach his entire life.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Above all, Claude was a horseman.  He loved his horses and  was an act
2 CONC ive rider throughout most of his life.  When he was aged 77, he rod
2 CONC e a ten hour day riding after cattle with the rest of the cowboys.
2 CONC   At this age, his legs began to fail him and riding became too painf
2 CONC ul for him, so he hung up his spurs.   But, he continued actively t
2 CONC o run his ranch for the next several years. His love of horses continu
2 CONC ed for the rest of his life and he would talk horses to any willin
2 CONC g ear until the day he died.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He had artistic skills and during the Depression, he made silver mount
2 CONC ed horse bridles, which he sold for a small profit.  It was during thi
2 CONC s time that he engraved a Thoroughbred horse on a flat piece of Germa
2 CONC n silver. This piece of art was never sold, but was kept as a family t
2 CONC reasure.  It is presently in the possession of his grandson, Daniel C
2 CONC . Wemple.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After he retired, at about age 85, he wrote a book about his grandfath
2 CONC er, Joseph Crawford Wemple, which he simple titled Joseph Crawford We
2 CONC mple: A Pioneer of Lassen County, California, 1830-1921.  Then when h
2 CONC e entered his nineties, he wrote a second book, an autobiography title
2 CONC d Memories of a Rancher From the Land of the Never Sweats.  Joseph C
2 CONC rawford Wemple, and other early Lassen County pioneers called the are
2 CONC a they lived in The Land of the Never Sweats because it took littl
2 CONC e labor to live off the land that they had moved onto.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At various times in his lifetime he served on about twelve different a
2 CONC dvisory boards, the most prestigious being the Advisory Board of the B
2 CONC ank of America from 1949-1975 in Susanville, California.  He was a sch
2 CONC ool trustee on the Milford Elementary School, Lassen Union High Schoo
2 CONC l and Lassen Junior College running from 1937-1949, and he was a chart
2 CONC er member and had a thirty year membership in the Lassen County Sherif
2 CONC f's Posse.  He was given recognition by seven different community an
2 CONC d organizational awards, the most notable being recognized as the Far
2 CONC mer of the Year by California Soil Conversation District in 1982.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He died while living on his beloved ranch in 1993 at age 97 in his hom
2 CONC e not far from the house where he was born.  He had spent his entire l
2 CONC ife span in the community in which he was born, save a brief six month

2 CONT PLAQUE NOTES HISTORIC PAST OF TINY CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY
2 CONT 
2 CONT Milford, California - Motorists along busy Highway 395 between Reno an
2 CONC d Susanville may never have noticed when they passed through the histo
2 CONC ric Lassen County community of Milford.
2 CONT 
2 CONT But Milford, one of the oldest settlements in the Honey Lake Valley, w
2 CONC ill go unnoticed no longer.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Neversweats Chapter of E Clampus Vitus has dedicated a rock plaqu
2 CONC e that recognizes the community at the site of the first important flo
2 CONC ur mill in northeastern California.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Milford, about 25 miles southeast of Susanville, was registered in 197
2 CONC 9 as a state historical point in interest, the first in Lassen County.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Still, the town's historical significance was generally unrecognized u
2 CONC ntil E Clampus Vitus decided to erect the marker.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Milford got its start in 1856 when Robert T. Scott staked a claim ther
2 CONC e. Joseph Wemple named the town in 1861, taking note of a sawmill an
2 CONC d flour mill there.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Claude Wemple, 89-year-old patriarch of the Wemple family, was on han
2 CONC d when the marker was dedicated last week.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Honey Lake Valley has seen seven generations of Wemples.  Many sti
2 CONC ll live here.  Claude Wemple has lived in a cluster of homes in the We
2 CONC mple Ranch since 1903.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Records say Robert Scott's first developments - including a cabin, fiv
2 CONC e fenced acres and water for farming - were sold to Peter Lassen, th
2 CONC e county's pioneer settler, in 1859.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Thomas Fairchild of Massachusetts and Frederick Washburne of Pennsylva
2 CONC nia acquired Milford from Lassen's estate.  They built a sawmill alon
2 CONC g Mill Creek in 1860.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A flour mill was constructed a year later by Joseph Wemple and his bro
2 CONC ther-in-law Judson Dakin.  The site of the flour mill is about 200 yar
2 CONC ds from the new historical plaque.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Milford's business district is limited to a store and post office.  I
2 CONC t once featured a saloon, hotel, blacksmith shop, store, butcher shop
2 CONC , school and several mills.
2 CONT 
2 CONT According to Claude Wemple, it was known for crops of apples that wer
2 CONC e shipped along Honey Lake to the railroad.

2 CONT 
2 CONT The first born son of Jay and Libby Wemple, he was born in Milford o

2 CONC d the Wemple Ranch in Milford for 51 years.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He married Henrietta Winchester shortly after graduating from Lassen H

2 CONT 
2 CONT Claude worked for his father at farming and ranching from 1915 to 1932
2 CONC . Then, in 1932, he started to realize his lifelong goal of owning an
2 CONC d operating a cattle ranch. It was in this year that he purchased hi
2 CONC s father's ranch, part of which was originally owned by Peter Lassen
2 CONC . At the time he purchased it, the ranch consisted of approximately 50
2 CONC 0 acres.
2 CONT 
2 CONT By the time Claude retired, he had increased the size of his ranch t
2 CONC o more than 4,700 acres. During his active ranching years, Claude prim
2 CONC arily raised beef cattle, but on various occasions he also raised dair
2 CONC y cattle, hogs and Thoroughbred horses, as well as producing grain, ha
2 CONC y and alfalfa seed as cash crops.
2 CONT

2 CONT 
2 CONT The result is a book entitled MEMORIES OF A RANCHER FROM THE LAND OF T
2 CONC HE NEVER SWEATS. Published by Bornet Books in 1992, Claude's book adde

2 CONT 
2 CONT Her display panels for city trash cans drew praise nationwide
2 CONT By Steve Gibson, Bee Staff Writer
2 CONT 
2 CONT Olga Wemple Burroughs, a member of a pioneer Lassen County family wh
2 CONC o later settled in Sacramento, reared a family and operated her own ou
2 CONC tdoor advertising firm, is dead at 102.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She died in a nursing home Monday of complications from pneumonia, sai
2 CONC d her son, Geoffrey Burroughs.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Her firm, Emerson & Burroughs, had a franchise from the city during th
2 CONC e late 1940s and early 1950s to display advertising panels on trash co
2 CONC ntainers on downtown street corners.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. Burroughs advertising techniques - attaching weatherproof panel
2 CONC s covered with color photos on the containers - were considered so inn
2 CONC ovative that she gained national recognition.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1951, the Advertising Federation of America presented her with th
2 CONC e Erma Proetz Award for pioneering a new type of outdoor advertising.
2 CONC 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Trash cans have long been ugly and dirty, Mrs. Burroughs wrote at th
2 CONC e time. I have designed a waste unit of almost classic dignity (with
2 CONC ) . . . beautiful colored pictures . . . which arouse civic pride an
2 CONC d give people a warm feeling toward the advertiser whose name and cop
2 CONC y is below the picture.
2 CONT 
2 CONT But, as Mrs. Burroughs recalled later, to win the franchise she firs
2 CONC t had to overcome strenuous opposition from the City Council and Sac
2 CONC ramento's two daily newspapers, both of which editorialized against th
2 CONC e concept.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Most of the criticism was based on the hypothesis that our waste unit
2 CONC s would be unsightly, she said later. But once samples were placed o
2 CONC n sidewalks, opposition waned.
2 CONT

2 CONC r her husband, Spencer E. Burroughs, a lawyer for the state of Califor

2 CONT 
2 CONT Her oldest son, a Navy officer, had been killed in action, in the Paci

2 CONT 
2 CONT We went from being real comfortable to being on a real tight budget,
2 CONC  her son said. She had to work to support us.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Nonetheless, Mrs. Burroughs found time for other interests.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She was a Democrat, a political liberal who was active during the 1950
2 CONC s and 1960s in the local chapter of the World Affairs Council of North
2 CONC ern California, serving as president of the group.

2 CONT Olga Wemple Burroughs was born September 13, 1897, on the family ranc

2 CONT 
2 CONT She was a 1915 graduate of Lassen High School in Susanville, and studi
2 CONC ed art for one year at the University of California, Berkeley. She ret

2 CONC d and needed help caring for the family.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1919 she married Spencer E. Burroughs, a Lassen County lawyer who s
2 CONC erved in the Navy during World War I.
2 CONT 
2 CONT According to her family, she was 13 when became interested in art an

2 CONC n and two great-great-grandchildren.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The family is planning a memorial service in Lassen County.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The following are excerpts from Olga's daughter, Brooke (Olga)'s, lett
2 CONC er which was available at the reception following Olga's memorial serv
2 CONC ice in Susanville:
2 CONT 
2 CONT (Elegance) was truly Mother on those evenings when she would descend t
2 CONC he stairs, dressed in brilliance for a party; her eyes shining with ex
2 CONC citement, her hair and gown lovely, looking like a girl on her first d
2 CONC ate.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She entertained often in her home, and had many elegant friends who in
2 CONC vited her to their homes.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mother understood sophisticated hospitality. She knew what the menu sh
2 CONC ould be - and what it should not be - and was never ruffled or ill a
2 CONC t ease.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Her parties were lovely; her guests those of the art world and those o
2 CONC f politics. Her home was charming; her husband, dynamic, and she ha
2 CONC d a gracious manner of enjoying people.
2 CONT 
2 CONT For years, no liquor was served at her home, and yet a society, who cu
2 CONC stomarily enjoyed cocktails and wine, appeared and stayed the evening.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Even after Dad died, at a much too early age, Mother continued to ente
2 CONC rtain, both the same collection of friends, and new ones she met in ou
2 CONC tside activities.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Although a widow, Mother never seemed interested in finding a second h
2 CONC usband. In fact, she discouraged any would-be suitors. Either she foun
2 CONC d Spencer Senior too difficult on act to supplant, or she enjoyed he
2 CONC r personal freedom. Mother was a very independent person.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ten words describe Mother to me: Elegant, Mercurial, Hospitable, Arbit
2 CONC rary, Aspiring, Admiring, Artistic, Undecided, Emotional, Determined.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Amidst these ten words are a lot of contradictions!
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mother had a wacky sense of humor, yet she was a most prim and traditi
2 CONC onal lady. For example: she thought it VERY FUNNY when a longtime male
2 CONC -friend of the family, who lived in the southern part of the State, ar
2 CONC rived, unannounced, in the middle of the night - climbed through an un
2 CONC locked downstairs window and went upstairs to an extra bedroom to slee
2 CONC p - showing up suddenly at the breakfast table the next morning.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mother liked kookie antics in her friends, thus gathering a number o
2 CONC n the Avant-Garde around her, although her own behavior was strictl
2 CONC y conventional, and she preferred that her own children's behavior b
2 CONC e conventional also.
2 CONT 
2 CONT As a matter of fact, she had a sense of possession about her own child
2 CONC ren, and even a sense of possession about their possessions. Mother wa
2 CONC s very much a matriarch.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Yet, as a mother, she did not enter into her children's activities. Sh
2 CONC e never looked at a report card, or entered a school a child her her
2 CONC s attended, or sought a teacher's advice, or helped with homework. He
2 CONC r expectations for scholarship and behavior were high, and that was th
2 CONC at.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She had many too many outside activities in her life to be bothered wi
2 CONC th such details.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She had two main interests in her life: art and politics. Art was an o
2 CONC utstanding talent given her as a gift from Above. Her special talent w
2 CONC as in the oil painting of portraits. With very little training, her po
2 CONC rtraits were truly exquisite and exact images of her subject. She spen
2 CONC t some years in painting family members and friends, generally, anyon
2 CONC e she could get to pose for her. Mother never thought in terms of busi
2 CONC ness or making money.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She was really a lady of the old school, and felt that women shoul
2 CONC d be allowed to stay out of the grubby world of making a living.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Her other great interest was politics. From the moment she rode all th
2 CONC e way home from Cal, Berkeley, on the train with Spencer Burroughs, wh
2 CONC o was going all the way home from Stanford University, and Spencer ast
2 CONC ounded her by talking nothing but politics the whole trip, Mother wa
2 CONC s captivated by politics.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She learned all her politics from Spencer, and was a rabid Democrat
2 CONC . I often though that, as he grew older, and the world changed, Dad mi
2 CONC ght have mellowed in his politics. But, not so, for Mother. She stoo
2 CONC d by the family point of view, and only progressed past Dad to becom
2 CONC ing, on many issues, absolutely radical.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Her intense interest in art and politics brought her some Awards in bo
2 CONC th fields. Among other things, she was President of the elite Kingsle
2 CONC y Art Club of Sacramento, and Founder and President of the World Aff
2 CONC airs Council of Sacramento, which, as I am sure you know, is a Rockef
2 CONC eller gift to the world.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1945, I recall, she dragged me to the first meeting of the United N
2 CONC ations, which was held in San Francisco. It was a gathering of severa
2 CONC l days and very potent with power. I recall being quite blase' about t
2 CONC he event, but now I am quite impressed.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mother also introduced me, at a luncheon, to the Moral ReArmament, Oxf
2 CONC ord Group, whom I later visited in Los Angeles, and some of whom I cor
2 CONC responded with for years.
2 CONT 
2 CONT This was the sort of atmosphere in which I grew up, and, of course, wh
2 CONC en Dad was alive, it was multiplied by Dad, who was, indeed, a uniqu
2 CONC e life in himself.
2 CONT 
2 CONT But, mother, took a long pause after Spencer Jr.'s death, and three ye
2 CONC ars later, after Dad's death, disconnecting the telephone for some tim
2 CONC e. But when she recovered, she took up her activities with even more d
2 CONC etermination.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mother wanted to BE everything, and to KNOW everything, and she did va
2 CONC lue her own acumen.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Therefore, not so very long ago, she was disappointed when she receive
2 CONC d a form in the mail from Who's Who in America, and discovered tha
2 CONC t she could not fill in a single requirement!
2 CONT 
2 CONT Well, what I say is, She RECEIVED the FORM, didn't she? That is bett
2 CONC er than most of us do.
2 CONT 
2 CONT HOWEVER, if Who's Who had a form for Eccentricity in a Restrained L
2 CONC ady-like Manner . . . or Ratings For The Top Tea-Pourer In America
2 CONC  . . . or Ratings For The Woman Who Presented The Same Salad At Dinn
2 CONC er For Well Over Umpteen-Years In A Row . . . or, Ratings For Someon
2 CONC e Who Tried To Be Everything To Everybody And Always, In Her Opinion
2 CONC , Was Right, SURELY, Mother could have filled THAT form to overloadin
2 CONC g and more!
2 CONT 
2 CONT I remember Mother mentioning once, in the early days, that someone s
2 CONC hould write a book just about the daily life of an ordinary person
2 CONC . I got the impression that the someone she was thinking about was her
2 CONC self.
2 CONT 
2 CONT NEVER! NEVER could she have done it!
2 CONT 
2 CONT ANYONE  who knew Mother well, knew that she could not have done it! Sh
2 CONC e could NEVER have become an ORDINARY person.  . . .

1 NOTE Lowell S. Wemple was a very sensitive boy, who became depressed and di
2 CONC scouraged rather easily.  His parents had gone to visit Libbie's broth
2 CONC er, Frank and his wife Blanche in Lemoore, CA and Lowell wanted to g
2 CONC o very much, but was refused.  This refusal started a series of event
2 CONC s which led to tragedy.  Soon thereafter, he got into trouble in schoo
2 CONC l over little or nothing.  Just before this, but after he missed the L
2 CONC emoore trip, he and a friend of his, Claude (Bud) Harwood, were caugh
2 CONC t stealing cigarettes from the local store and Lowell's older brother
2 CONC , Claude had remarked to him, You'd better be careful.  You could en
2 CONC d up in prison.   When Lowell got into trouble at school, he came hom
2 CONC e at noon sobbing his heart out. Some of the family were gathered in t
2 CONC he kitchen.  When they heard Lowell come in the front door sobbing, Ma
2 CONC rjel Wemple, later Marjel Edwards, Lowell's sister, went to see Lowel
2 CONC l and told him that she would get him something to eat.  Fixing someon
2 CONC e something to eat was always the family cure all for depression, sadn
2 CONC ess and sickness.  Marjel probably had said to Lowell, I'll fix yo
2 CONC u a sandwich.  That'll make you feel better.  Lowell went on upstairs
2 CONC .  It wasn't long before Claude, Irvin, Marjel and a family friend wh
2 CONC o were all sitting about the kitchen, heard a report from a .22 rifle
2 CONC .  Irvin (Sammy), Lowell's brother, bounded up the stairs, two at a ti
2 CONC me, followed closely by Claude.  They found Lowell mortally wounded
2 CONC .  Shortly thereafter, a phone call was placed to Lowell's parents. J.
2 CONC C. and Libby in Lemoore and they hurried home to a sadden and broken h
2 CONC earted family. The pain and heartache of this tragedy still haunts thi
2 CONC s family, even after all these seventy-one years. DRW
2 CONT 
2 CONT Lowell died in September of 1925 and he wrote a couple of stories in t
2 CONC he spring of that same year that his sister, Deesse Theodore, has kep
2 CONC t and treasured these many years.  The stories are as follows:  A STO
2 CONC RY.  Once Claude, Heavy (Orville Wemple), Guy (Wemple) and Murph (Fre
2 CONC d Wwmple) bilt (sic) a raft and put it on the lake. Then they got on i
2 CONC t and went out on the lake.  When they got out a little way, the win
2 CONC d came up and drifted them on down to that fense (sic) between Harwood
2 CONC s and Humphries.  Guy got sea sick and Heavy was frightened to death
2 CONC .  Claude and Murph got a hold of the fense (sic) and pulled them in t
2 CONC o shore.  When they got in, it was dark.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The second story is titled: TUMMY BUNNY.  Once there was a bunny name
2 CONC d Tummy.  This was a funny name.  The reason why his name was Tummy wa
2 CONC s because he was a funny bunny.  One day Tunny was running down the pa
2 CONC th merrily, when out jumped Rocket the old hound dog.  Rocket jumped r
2 CONC ight on Tummy.  Hey, what's the  big idea? said Tummy.  I'm catchin
2 CONC g rabbits, said Rocket.  Well, said Tummy, you're going the wron
2 CONC g way because I'm a bunny.  What's the difference? said Rocket.  
2 CONC A rabbit has a black tail and a bunny has a white tail, answered Tumm
2 CONC y.  Oh all right, said Rocket, as he walked down the path. Whow (sp
2 CONC ), that was close, said Tummy, because I have a black tail.  THE END

2 CONT A friend and family member, Robert Preston Wemple of Albuquerque, Ne
2 CONC w Mexico, wrote our father and mentioned that there was no biography o
2 CONC f the man who put in the many hours writing letters, making phone call
2 CONC s and following any lead that might add to our knowledge of our famili
2 CONC es. In addition to making inquiries, hundred of hours were spent in fr
2 CONC ont of a computer screen entering the data.  Thanks to Bob's observati
2 CONC on, this short biography is written by his children, Daniel C. and Deb
2 CONC ra S.
2 CONT 
2 CONT David Raymond Wemple was born in Susanville, California on June 13, 19
2 CONC 31 to Claude and Henrietta Wemple.  He is the youngest of four, two br
2 CONC others and one sister.  He has the distinction of being the first on
2 CONC e in his family born in a hospital and not at the family home, or thei
2 CONC r maternal grandmother's home.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He married Donna L. Rogers on January 2, 1951.  They lived with David'
2 CONC s parents while a house was being built by David's father, Claude.  Cl
2 CONC aude watched David pace and stake off the rooms for the future home, h
2 CONC e  was heard to say, I knew by the way he paced off those rooms it wa
2 CONC s going to be a big house.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He left the family ranch in January 1957 to join the California Highwa
2 CONC y Patrol.  His first assignment was in Alturas, California as a Traffi
2 CONC c Officer.  He made sergeant in November 1966 and moved the family t
2 CONC o Ukiah, California.  Five years later in 1971, he was transferred t
2 CONC o Culver City, California (Los Angeles area) when he promoted to Lieut
2 CONC enant and requested a transfer back to northern California the same da
2 CONC y he reported to the Culver City office.  He was transferred less tha
2 CONC n a year later to Red Bluff, California and finally in 1976 to Willows
2 CONC , California where he was Officer in Charge of the area office.  He re
2 CONC tired seven years later in 1983 and is still living just north of Will
2 CONC ows in Orland, California with his bride of 45 years.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Our father is, as other fathers, many things.  As a provider he held t
2 CONC wo jobs on numerous occasions to provide us those extra things like br
2 CONC aces for our teeth, a home and of course Christmas presents.  As a fat
2 CONC her he was strict but fair.  He said on many occasions that the two th
2 CONC ings he couldn't abide were a liar or a sneak thief.  Our father is di
2 CONC rect and honest and if you don't want to hear the truth, don't ask hi
2 CONC m the question.  He said that cops either start drinking, chasing wome
2 CONC n or find a hobby.  Our dad had a lot of hobbies.  When our dad take
2 CONC s up a hobby he throws his whole being into it.  He started findin
2 CONC g a few pennies on the floor of our home that we had neglected to pu
2 CONC t in our piggy banks.  Dad didn't look at the pennies as a problem bu
2 CONC t as a source of entertainment.  He started a penny collection.  He bo
2 CONC ught a book about coins and folders to put the pennies in.  He got s
2 CONC o wrapped up collecting pennies that he would take five dollars to th
2 CONC e bank and get five dollars in pennies, return to the house and go thr
2 CONC ough them.  He would then wrap them and return to the bank for five mo
2 CONC re dollars in pennies.  He planted roses and raised them to glorious b
2 CONC looms.  We believe his favorite is the Peace rose.  There have been ot
2 CONC her hobbies but learning our family ancestry holds a special place i
2 CONC n his heart.  He loves to meet family and visit. The genealogy of th
2 CONC e Wemple family has been a passion of his for over 30 years.
2 CONT 
2 CONT We know one thing that our dad takes great comfort in is his Christia
2 CONC n belief.  Through all life's struggles our dad has felt like Abraha
2 CONC m Lincoln who said, I've been driven to my knees many times with th
2 CONC e overwhelming conviction that I had no place else to go.  During hi
2 CONC s visit to Albuquerque in 1996, Dad told Bob that, I only had to dra
2 CONC w my gun once in a 26 year career with the California Highway Patrol
2 CONC , and I thank the Lord I didn't have to shoot.  Dad also told Bob, W
2 CONC hen I started this genealogy project, I sent out many letters to know
2 CONC n family members but got very little response.  I was downhearted.  Do
2 CONC nna and I prayed about this situation, and shortly new doors opened an
2 CONC d leads started to come to me.  This describes our dad.  A honest, ca
2 CONC ring, Christian man who loves his family and cherishes his wife Donna.
2 CONT 
2 CONT We hope this gives you, the reader, a little insight into the compile
2 CONC r of this latest version of the genealogy of our various lines.   If y
2 CONC ou happen to meet Dad, visit with him and tell him a little about you
2 CONC r family.  He will thoroughly enjoy it.

2 CONT THE WEMPLE RANCH
2 CONT by Joseph Kriss, Staff Writer
2 CONT 
2 CONT What's kept the Wemple family in business was their willingness to ch
2 CONC ange, explains Fred Wemple as he and his wife, Lena (actually Dena DR
2 CONC W), bounce around in the cab of their old pickup truck while crossin
2 CONC g a field of alfalfa.
2 CONT 
2 CONT With a tank trailer of diesel fuel in tow, the couple heads out to a f
2 CONC ar corner of their 1,000-acre Milford ranch to gas-up a large green an
2 CONC d yellow tractor operated by Fred's dad, Glenn.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The senior Wemple, now 70, is the last of the family actually born o
2 CONC n the ranch.  He's supposed to be retired, says Lena.  It's hard t
2 CONC o keep him off a tractor.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Wemple Ranch, located in Milford along Highway 395, is a househol
2 CONC d name in south Lassen County.  Most school-age children know about th
2 CONC e ranch, having had the opportunity to get pumpkins during October fie
2 CONC ld trips to the well known pumpkin patch.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There have been many changes and many memories made on this sandy, alk
2 CONC aline patch of dirt over the past 100 years.  Originally, the Wemple
2 CONC s used the property as a dairy farm and horse ranch.  Then they went i
2 CONC nto the cattle business.  The cattle operation lasted until the proper
2 CONC ty was split (abt. 1989 DRW).  The Wemples still run cattle but now le
2 CONC ase about 3,000 acres for grazing in the desert near Herlong.
2 CONT 
2 CONT We had to diversify, Fred said, when asked how the ranch stays solve
2 CONC nt during these hard economic times for agriculture.  We're always lo
2 CONC oking for new ideas, and we're willing to accept change.  We might no
2 CONC t like it, but we have to be more business minded.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1998, the ranch will celebrate its 100 year anniversary.  The prop
2 CONC erty has changed hands many times, Fred said, but it's always been (
2 CONC sold) to a Wemple.
2 CONT 
2 CONT J.C. Wemple (Sr. DRW), Glenn's great-grandfather, originally bought th
2 CONC e property back in 1859.  He came to California from Michigan where h
2 CONC e had operated a grist mill.  (This is an error.  He operated the gris
2 CONC tmill in Milford.  It was his first business venture after moving to C
2 CONC alifornia and highly successful.) He had to give up the gristmill beca
2 CONC use of failing lungs and he went into farming, mostly  raising vegetab
2 CONC les, and then branched off into other farming as time passed.  DRW)
2 CONC .  When the pioneering Wemple ended up in northern California, he boug
2 CONC ht a parcel of land from Peter Lassen.  On closer inspection of the de
2 CONC ed, Wemple found the purchased property, supposed to be in Susanville
2 CONC , ended up actually being in Milford where the ranch is today.  The or
2 CONC iginal ranch stretched from Highway 395 to the shores of Honey Lake.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The ranch is now split in two with Fred's cousin, Kyle Wemple, an ex-p
2 CONC ro rodeo saddle bronc rider, now working the land adjacent to his. (Ac
2 CONC tually Kyle's father, Kenneth is the owner of this part of the ranch
2 CONC .  DRW).
2 CONT 
2 CONT The elder Wemple's memories of the place he has called home for 70 yea
2 CONC rs are many.  Most are good, some bring back times that were not so pl
2 CONC easant, like the big fire that raced through Milford.  September 2, 1
2 CONC 950, Glenn says, recalling the date like it was last week.  I rememb
2 CONC er we were gathering cattle off (the) summer range when the fire start
2 CONC ed. It was real close to where we were.  The fire started on the sout
2 CONC hwest side of the mountain and quickly burned over the ridge (and int
2 CONC o the valley). Wemple motions across the valley towards the mountains
2 CONC , still showing the scars of wildfire.  Once it hit the top of the hi
2 CONC ll, it took only 20 minutes to burn all the way down to the lake.
2 CONT 
2 CONT All the barns and out buildings on the ranch were destroyed. Miraculou
2 CONC sly, the old farm house(s) was saved from the flames.  It just abou
2 CONC t wiped us out completely, added Fred.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemples were grazing cattle in the valley long before the Forest Servi
2 CONC ce and grazing allotments were in existence, according to Glenn.  The
2 CONC y used to run horses in the valley, too.  Old Tom Doyle ran hogs ove
2 CONC r the hill at one time, Wemple recalls.  But he had a heck of a tim
2 CONC e getting them back home.  Cattle - they'll find their way back, but n
2 CONC ot hogs.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The most significant change he has seen over the years is the switch f
2 CONC rom horse power to tractor power.  I saw it change from horse to al
2 CONC l tractors, said Glenn.  It used to take seven men to put up the hay
2 CONC , and we only we only put up a third of what we do now.  Generally, w
2 CONC e use just three men now, he said.  One tractor is equal to four tea
2 CONC ms of horses.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Making the slow transition to mechanized farming, Glenn's father, Clau
2 CONC de Wemple, bought a Fordson tractor back in 1930.  He had quite a tim
2 CONC e keeping the tractor running, he remembers.  My most vivid memory i
2 CONC s seeing that tractor tipped over on its side in the field with him ge
2 CONC tting a team of horses to pull it upright again, he said with a chuck
2 CONC le.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Another big change in farming is the high cost of the equipment.  Th
2 CONC e cost of machinery now - it'll take your breath away, says Glenn.  
2 CONC We bought a John Deere tractor in 1936 with a plow and mower for $1,20
2 CONC 0. Now a small garden tractor can cost $6,000 and a large farming trac
2 CONC tor can cost up to $100,000 or more.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Wemples buy used equipment and make repairs at the ranch.  Repairi
2 CONC ng farm equipment is a constant, on-going project.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Even back in the days of horse-drawn plows and mowers, repairs were al
2 CONC ways cause of tearing out one's hair.  Glenn remembers how a team o
2 CONC f horses got spooked in the field one day and ran off.  There was mow
2 CONC ing machine parts scattered from here to the barn, 'cause that's wher
2 CONC e the team always ended up.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Fred now collects the old Poppin' Johnny style tractors.  One of th
2 CONC e restored old timers is used to pull school children around the far
2 CONC m when the pumpkin patch is open.
2 CONT 
2 CONT To help keep the earth producing high quality alfalfa - there's a bi
2 CONC g difference in dollar value between the quality levels of hay - the W
2 CONC emples use wheat and carrot seed as rotation crops.  It's pretty inte
2 CONC resting to try different crops, said Glenn.  Sometimes you make mone
2 CONC y, sometimes you don't.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Rotating crops in between a six-year cycle of alfalfa planting help
2 CONC s get the ground broken up and cleaned of weeds and unwanted pests, s
2 CONC ays Fred.  The rotation is usually planted for two years.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Carrot seeds are harvested from carrot plants that are left to flowe
2 CONC r and seed.  This crop accounts for 15 acres on the ranch right now
2 CONC .  The seed is shipped to a seed company in Woodland, Calif.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The farming seems to agree with the Wemples.  I'd have a hard time i
2 CONC f I had to get up to go to work everyday, Fred states.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Born in Susanville, he attended Janesville School and Lassen High Scho
2 CONC ol.  My college education consisted of horse shoeing and rodeo, he s
2 CONC ays.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Lena, also a Susanville native, now works on the ranch full-time wit
2 CONC h her husband.  Her main passion this time of year is readying the man
2 CONC y varieties of pumpkins for their annual pumpkin patch.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Fred, 35, says he never thought about doing anything else but ranchin
2 CONC g and farming.  This is all I could think about since I was old enoug
2 CONC h to walk.  Fred and Lena have been married for 10 years and have a s
2 CONC ix-year-old son, Matt.
2 CONT 
2 CONT They enjoy the farming lifestyle.  We're always busy, but it's a rela
2 CONC xed pace, Lena says.  Sometimes, we can take for granted the lifesty
2 CONC le we enjoy, she said.

2 CONT 
2 CONT In November of 1938, when Donna was six, Donna, her sister Betty and h
2 CONC er mother and father moved from Colorado to Westwood, California. Gold
2 CONC ie, Donna's mother, started working at what was called The Club almo
2 CONC st immediately. Heber (also called Ricky) apparently couldn't find emp
2 CONC loyment and even tried finding work in Redding at Shasta Dam, which wa
2 CONC s in its early beginnings of construction. Unable to find employment
2 CONC , and discouraged by summer's end, Ricky returned to Westwood and anno
2 CONC unced to Goldie that he was going back to Colorado. Goldie and Ricky a
2 CONC greed upon an amiable separation. Ricky went his way taking Donna wit
2 CONC h him and they returned to Colorado with the understanding that when s
2 CONC chool took up in the fall, Donna would return to Westwood.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ricky soon took up with a second lady and went to Telluride to work i
2 CONC n the Silver mines. Donna was placed with her paternal grandmother an
2 CONC d grandfather Rogers. She began the second grade in Manassa, while sti
2 CONC ll living with her grandparents. Donna had little or no contact with h
2 CONC er father while she was in Colorado, except she did spend one weeken
2 CONC d in Telluride. It was not a pleasant experience and, since she was se
2 CONC nt to bed before the sun was down, she felt that she was more in the w
2 CONC ay than wanted.
2 CONT 
2 CONT When school started, Donna was not returned to Goldie as agreed upon b
2 CONC y everyone. Several times Goldie appealed to have Donna returned to he
2 CONC r. She could see that her daughter was never going to be returned to h
2 CONC er, unless she took matters into her own hands. So Goldie borrowed $50
2 CONC .00 from the local Westwood credit union, $50.00 from her mother, Jose
2 CONC phine Hartley and as Goldie was getting ready to leave Westwood for Co
2 CONC lorado, a friend gave her another $20.00. So with $120.00 at her dispo
2 CONC sal, she headed for Colorado to retrieve her daughter.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Before leaving California, Goldie consulted with a Susanville attorney
2 CONC , named Finn Berry. Finn gave Goldie a signed letter explaining the ci
2 CONC rcumstances and explicit instructions on how to handle the situation a
2 CONC nd charged her $10.00 for the legal advise.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A friend drove Goldie to Reno, where she bought train tickets for Alam
2 CONC osa. When she arrived at Alamosa, she stayed with her aunt, Nellie Win
2 CONC ters. Early the next morning, Goldie sought out a local attorney and p
2 CONC ounded on the door of his house until it was finally answered. After a
2 CONC n explanation the attorney signed Finn Berry's letter and charged he
2 CONC r another $5.00 for his signature.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It was early on Sunday morning when Goldie hired a local taxi in Alamo
2 CONC sa to drive her to Manassa, with plans to drive onto Santa Fe, New Mex
2 CONC ico. When Goldie arrived in Manassa, she went to the local Morman chur
2 CONC ch with the certainty Donna would be there for Sunday school. Disguise
2 CONC d with a bandanna and dark glasses, Goldie had the driver pull up to t
2 CONC he front of the church and tipped a child .25c and asked her to tell D
2 CONC onna Rogers to come to the car that was waiting. Donna's grandparents
2 CONC , who she was with at church, were upstairs at service, while Donna wa
2 CONC s downstairs attending Sunday school.  Not having the slightest idea o
2 CONC f who wanted her, Donna immediately went out and innocently got into t
2 CONC he taxi with this strange lady in the bandanna and dark glasses. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT When Donna got in the car, Goldie immediately gave the order to driv
2 CONC e away. When they got over the state line into New Mexico, Goldie ha
2 CONC d the taxi driver stop by a phone and called back to Manassa and tol
2 CONC d Ella Haynie, Donna's cousin, that she was taking Donna home with he
2 CONC r to Westwood. The three of them, Donna, Goldie and the taxi driver ar
2 CONC rived in Santa Fe, where Goldie paid the taxi driver $25.00 for the ri
2 CONC de. This was in a day when lots of men were working for a dollar a day
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT After arriving an Santa Fe, Goldie immediately got Donna out of her M
2 CONC orman clothes which consisted of silk stockings, with the runs sown u
2 CONC p, and a plain, print cotton dress and bought her a pink slack suit fo
2 CONC r the trip home. Now Donna felt all dressed up for the trip home.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Donna and Goldie did arrive in Susanville with no further difficulty
2 CONC . Finn Berry was waiting for them. He immediately took Goldie's purs
2 CONC e from her and looked into it. He finally found where the money was ke
2 CONC pt and all that was left was $2.00. Finn commented, Just as I thought
2 CONC .   It's not every child who can say that they were kidnapped by thei

2 CONC , she and Ashley, who was about two and a half at the time, were drivi
2 CONC ng from Napa, California to Orland, California to visit her parents. A
2 CONC shley was asleep on the front seat, next to Debra. As they were travel
2 CONC ing along the deserted I-505, an older car passed Debra and Ashley, pu
2 CONC lled right in front of them, and slowed down to about 35 mph. Debra pa
2 CONC ssed this car and the older car passed them again and slowed down agai
2 CONC n, but even slower to about 25, then 15 miles an hour. This man did th
2 CONC is same thing several more times, when finally anger weld up inside De
2 CONC bra. She got out paper and pen and wrote down everything she could abo
2 CONC ut this car traveling so slow in front of her. She then pulled up alon
2 CONC g side of this car and looked directly at the driver. Debra saw this m
2 CONC an clearly, with his right eye appearing to droop lower than the lef
2 CONC t eye and looking as though he had two different faces put together a
2 CONC s one; his hair was ugly and graying. By this time, Debra was not onl
2 CONC y very angry, but determined to get this man to stop harassing her an
2 CONC d her baby. She looked directly into his eyes and mouthed, Come on yo
2 CONC u son-of-a-bitch, I'll kill you! With this the guy in the older car b
2 CONC acked off and Debra drove onto her parents house and reported this inc
2 CONC ident to them.  Within days of this incident, Debra saw a picture of H
2 CONC enry Lee Lucas and positively identified him as the man she had an enc
2 CONC ounter with. He was convicted of ten murders in Texas and confessed o
2 CONC f murdering over 100 women across America. On June 27, 1998 Governor G
2 CONC eorge W. Bush spared Henry's life by commuting his sentence to life. H
2 CONC e is still serving his life sentence in Texas.  It was in 1959 that He
2 CONC nry Lee Lucas killed his mother and in interviews that followed, he ad
2 CONC mitted to killing many other women, including his former live-in gir
2 CONC l friend, Frieda Becky Powell, who was only fifteen at the time.  He h
2 CONC as a glass eye from an injury when he was a child. This caused his ey

2 CONC e months over 90 years of age at the time of his death.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There are six surviving children, Mrs. Thomas Harris of Elko, Nevada
2 CONC ; and five sons, John B. Wemple of Standish,, N.V. and Jay C. of Milfo
2 CONC rd, and Frank O. and Orlo E. of Janesville. There are numerous grand a
2 CONC nd great-grandchildren.

2 CONT It's this compiler's opinion that no action was taken.  I suspect tha
2 CONC t Grandpa Joe had enough influence with the Lassen County officials t
2 CONC o just get this thing dropped as the action of an angry, vengeful woma
2 CONC n.  I would guess that Grandma Jane, after filing the complaint, jus

2 CONT 
2 CONT Nov 15, 1925 - Aug 4, 2008 Brooke was an eclectic. There were few thin
2 CONC gs in life she chose not to explore and, as she would have said, thos
2 CONC e left unturned were not important. As a young woman she rode horses a
2 CONC t a stable in East Sacramento and later during her days at McClatchy H
2 CONC igh School challenged the august Principal, Sam Pepper, to allow stude
2 CONC nts to enter the high school through the front doors; a battle she los
2 CONC t but a war she won. While she could be an iconoclast, she was als
2 CONC o a traditionalist, belonged to Manana, a high school sorority, was ed
2 CONC itor of the school year book, and took high school sartorial eleganc
2 CONC e to a new level. She attended UCLA, and worked as a page on the MGM l
2 CONC ot (the high point she once said was a kiss on the cheek from Frank Si
2 CONC natra after delivering a message). She traveled alone whenever possibl
2 CONC e, observing that it's the only way to meet people. She lived in Sacra
2 CONC mento; Palm Springs; Montana; New York; New Jersey; Guadalajara, Mexic
2 CONC o; Honolulu; Arizona and Colorado. She was an accomplished photographe
2 CONC r and social entertainer of the first magnitude. She did a lot in he
2 CONC r life, had fun and left nothing on the table. Brooke passed away whil
2 CONC e under the care of some wonderful people at the Julia Temple facilit
2 CONC y in Englewood, Colo. A memorial service will be held in Hawaii in Jun
2 CONC e of 2009. She was predeceased by her parents Olga and Spencer Burroug

2 CONT After serving in the U.S. Army as an artillery fire control coordinato
2 CONC r, he worked for the U.S. Post Office for 32 years. Trent was a gifte

2 CONC o one to better him in Sacramento, went to San Francisco and brought b
2 CONC ack a highly rated chess player to challenge him -- after an ardious b
2 CONC attle on the chess board they drew. Trent also had an interest in high
2 CONC er mathematics taking such abstruse courses as non-Euclidian geometr
2 CONC y and abstract algrebra. As an athlete he was a superlative tennis pla
2 CONC yer and in his younger days an ace receiver for once famous Curtis Par

2 CONC .
2 CONT

2 CONT 
2 CONT 'I pretty much been doing it (rodeoing) all my life, he said.  'Ridi

2 CONT 
2 CONT That training, combined with his natural ability and the experience h

1 NOTE Tom killed a man named Winters over a dice game in the Milford Hotel i
2 CONC n 1874. A few days later, during a court hearing in Janesville he esca
2 CONC ped by horseback and fled to Nevada. After spending a few hours wit
2 CONC h a sheepherder in Nevada, Tom pressed on and eventually arrived and s
2 CONC ettled near Pike's Peak in Bolder, Colorado. After a short time, he se
2 CONC nt for his bride of only a few months. Tom's wife, Elizabeth or Libb
2 CONC y for short, had no one to take her to Tom, so her brother, John, wh
2 CONC o was only 10* at the time, took her to him by horse and buggy. This t
2 CONC rip was about 900 miles long and it took them several weeks to make th
2 CONC e jaunt. The Harris' oldest child was born in Boulder.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A few years later, Tom and Libby moved onto Fort Collins where their t
2 CONC wo middle children were born. They stayed in Fort Collins until abou
2 CONC t 1881. At this time Tom and Libby were notified that if they returne
2 CONC d home to Honey Lake Valley, Tom would in all probably be exonerated f
2 CONC or the killing of Winters because it could be proven that the Grand Ju
2 CONC ry which Indited him was prejudiced.
2 CONT 
2 CONT While living in Fort Collins, Tom had a armed man come into a bar he o
2 CONC wned. The man pulled a pistol on Tom and it is said that Tom grabbed t
2 CONC he pistol by the barrel, jumped over the bar and disarmed the man with
2 CONC out incident.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Tom and Libby did return to Honey Lake Valley where Tom was exonerate
2 CONC d for the killing of Winters. They moved and settled for a short tim
2 CONC e in Reno, where their youngest child was born. A few years later, the
2 CONC y again moved to Elko, Nevada where Tom first ranched and raised cattl
2 CONC e. Several years later, he bought a hotel and bar in Elko, which he ra
2 CONC n until retirement.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The escape itself is an interesting story. After a day long hearing, T
2 CONC om was placed under arrest and was leaving the courtroom in the compan
2 CONC y of a deputy sheriff named Parks. Joseph C. Wemple got a couple of ne
2 CONC ighbors to feign a fight and during the fracas, Tom ran and jumped o
2 CONC n Joseph's favorite horse, named Bally. Bally was an excellent horse a
2 CONC nd the pursuing officers couldn't keep up with him. Tom simply outra
2 CONC n his pursuers and made a clean escape.
2 CONT 
2 CONT *As hard as it might be to believe that a 10 year old boy would make s
2 CONC uch a long trip with his 17 year old sister, this fact was verified b
2 CONC y two completely different sources. First, the compilers brother, Dona
2 CONC ld, related this. He said that he had heard it from N's family. A fe
2 CONC w years later, Murray Wemple, grandson of John, told the compiler th
2 CONC e same thing. Murray said that his other grandfather, David Raker, ha
2 CONC d told him the story of John taking Libby to Tom in Colorado when he w
2 CONC as only 10. DRW

2 CONC iler by Thomas Udell Harris, grandnephew of Joseph C. Harris, on Septe
2 CONC mber 27, 2000. The first half of the quarterly was dedicated to the me
2 CONC mory of Joseph C. Harris:
2 CONT 
2 CONT THE SHERIFF-JOE HARRIS
2 CONT by Carol Hendershot
2 CONT 
2 CONT This court will convene as a Court of Sorrow . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Thus began the minutes of the Fourth Judicial District Court convene
2 CONC d in Elko, Nevada on March 3, 1936. The Court of Sorrow convened becau
2 CONC se of the untimely death of Joseph Crawford Harris, who had been Sheri
2 CONC ff of Elko County for 26 impressive years. He was 57 years and ten mon
2 CONC ths old at the time of his death.
2 CONT 
2 CONT By order of the Board of County Commissioners, the courthouse and al
2 CONC l county offices closed on March 4 for the funeral. Every business i
2 CONC n Elko closed at least two hours, many the entire day. In an unheard o
2 CONC f move, the post office, a federal agency, locked its doors for two ho
2 CONC urs so employees could attend the funeral.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Hundred of Elko County residents jammed the Masonic Hall for the servi
2 CONC ces. There was not room for everyone who came. Among the out-of-town a
2 CONC rrivals was U.S. District Attorney Edward P. Ted Carville from Reno
2 CONC . Following the services, one of the longest funeral procession ever s
2 CONC een locally accompanied the casket to the cemetery.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ironically, after a lifetime of law enforcement work in a remote rura
2 CONC l county in a western state where law and order were not always top pr
2 CONC iority, Joe Harris died of uremic poisoning a bout with pneumonia, whi
2 CONC ch he had beaten.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was born at Fort Collins, Colorado on May 1, 1878. His father, To
2 CONC m Thumb Harris, moved his family to  Huntington Valley, south of Elko
2 CONC , to ranch. Joe was two years old. He attended Huntington Valley Schoo
2 CONC l where he, at least once, finished a perfect grade in deportment an
2 CONC d 98 in scholarship. He finished his education in Elko schools.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Once out of school, he went to work for Reinhart Clothing Store. Whe
2 CONC n the Spanish-American War broke out in 1898, he enlisted in Troop M
2 CONC . 2nd U.S. Volunteer Cavalry Regiment. There was a gigantic party at H
2 CONC arris Hall and much hoopla at the train station. After a presentatio
2 CONC n of flowers by young ladies, he left for Carson City, Nevada. He wa
2 CONC s billeted at the race track, newly christened Camp Sadler, with othe
2 CONC r Elko County volunteers.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Cavalry regulations excluded men over 5'6 and 165 pounds. Nevada Gove
2 CONC rnor Reinhold Sadler made the final selection. He simply had them al
2 CONC l line up and county in threes and eliminated every third man until h
2 CONC e had the required number. All but one of the Elko county volunteers m
2 CONC ade the roster.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The group elected Harris was acting sergeant. Almost immediately, the
2 CONC y boarded a train for Fort Russell, Wyoming. Colonel Jay L. Torrey me
2 CONC t the train in Cheyenne and escorted the men to the camp three miles f
2 CONC rom town.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Calling themselves Torrey's Terrors and  Torrey's Rough Riders, Tr
2 CONC oop M experienced a continuous run of bad luck. After outfitting, dril
2 CONC ling, and combat training, they discovered the unit was short 100 hors
2 CONC es. Destined for Puerto Rico, the troops, given a choice of immediat
2 CONC e shipment as infantry or wait for the missing mounts, voted to wait f
2 CONC or the horses.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Typical of the military, Troop M shipped by rail, still short of horse
2 CONC s, to Jacksonville, Florida. The train had an accident in St. Louis, M
2 CONC issouri on June 24th. None of the troops was injured, but tow train cr
2 CONC ew members died. Two days later, at Tupelo, Mississippi, their train w
2 CONC as rear-ended by another train, while stopped to take on water. Colone
2 CONC l Torrey and one trooper received injuries.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Finally arriving in Jacksonville, the soldiers went to nearby Camp Cub
2 CONC a Libre. True to most military operations, they waited and waited. Har
2 CONC ris spent much of his free time reading morning and evening newspapers
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Conditions at the camp, already bad, got even worse. Casualty statisti
2 CONC cs for the short war reveals, between May 1 and September, 1898, 200 m
2 CONC en killed in action, while 2,505 died of various diseases. Typhoid fev
2 CONC er and other illnesses raged through the men of Troop M. Finally, must
2 CONC ered out in October, most of the unit left for home. They had not lef
2 CONC t the United States and never fired a shot at the enemy. Harris brough
2 CONC t his illness and Army tent home with him. The tent is now in the coll
2 CONC ections at the Northeastern Nevada Museum at Elko.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After several months recuperation in the hospital and at home, Harri
2 CONC s took a job with the Southern Pacific Railroad for two months. He the
2 CONC n became a guard at the Nevada State Prison in Carson City. He staye
2 CONC d for three years. There, he met and married Ora Ellen Bright. The cou
2 CONC ple to Elko a short time after their wedding.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1907, Elko County Sheriff L.G. Clark appointed Harris as undersheri
2 CONC ff. Two years later, he became steward of Elko County Hospital turnin
2 CONC g it from a disgrace of an institution the county could be proud of.
2 CONC  In 1910, he was elected Elko County Sheriff for the first time.
2 CONT 
2 CONT This was the real beginning of a law enforcement career that encompass
2 CONC ed 16 years of hard and often dangerous work over more that 17,000 squ
2 CONC are miles of territory. Elko County is the fourth largest area in th
2 CONC e nation. It is larger than many states.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He covered his territory any way he could, usually by horseback or bug
2 CONC gy and by train when possible. The county was, and still is, sparsel
2 CONC y populated with many miles between ranches and towns. This made his j
2 CONC ob difficult, especially in bad weather.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A good illustration of his travel difficulties in the mail stage robbe
2 CONC ry in Jarbidge on December 5, 1916. When notified of the crime and mur
2 CONC der of driver Fred M. Searcy, he and the district attorney, Ted Carvil
2 CONC le, said they would come to Jarbidge right away. Right away turned i
2 CONC nto a three-day trip.
2 CONT 
2 CONT They first boarded the eastbound train for Ogden, Utah. Then they chan
2 CONC ged trains to go north to Pocatello, Idaho where they boarded anothe
2 CONC r bound for Twin Falls, Idaho. From there they went to Rogerson, Idah
2 CONC o to catch the mail stage to Jarbidge. The crime occurred in the dea
2 CONC d of winter and that meant foul weather all the way.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There are four unusual aspects of the killing and robbery. It was th
2 CONC e last armed robbery of a horse-drawn stage in the United States. A do
2 CONC g provided some of the evidence. A bloody palm print, found on an enve
2 CONC lope at the crime scene, helped convict the murderer. The same man wh
2 CONC o prosecuted him paroled the killer almost 28 years later.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There is only one open road into Jarbidge in the winter. The stage an
2 CONC d driver, sighted only a few hundred yards from the post office, disap
2 CONC peared into a raging snowstorm. Several hours passed and Postmaster Sc
2 CONC ott Fleming formed a search party. He telephoned Rose Dexter who live
2 CONC d on the outskirts of town and she told him that the stage passed he
2 CONC r house around 6:30 p.m. It was now after nine o'clock.
2 CONT 
2 CONT About eleven p.m., the searchers found the stage a short distance of
2 CONC f the main road. Searcy, shot in the back of his head, was dead. The s
2 CONC hivering horses were tied to willows near a bridge. There were print
2 CONC s in the snow, some made by a large dog.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There weren't many big dogs in town. One of the men followed a large y
2 CONC ellow stray known to hang around a man named Ben Kuhl. Nose to the gro
2 CONC und, the animal led the man to  nearby bridge. The searcher found a bl
2 CONC ack overcoat stuffed between timbers. It was later identified as Kuhl'
2 CONC s. In the same area, searchers found a bag of money and a shirt.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Kuhl stood trial along with an accomplice, Ed Beck. Beck, also known a
2 CONC s Cut-Lip Swede, secured the murder weapon for Kuhl. The bloody pal
2 CONC m print and Kuhl's palm print were flashed, side by side, on a curtai
2 CONC n in the court room. Harris had contacted C.H. Stone, head of the Bake
2 CONC rsfield, California police identification unit, to examine the prints
2 CONC . He brought another expert, O.W. Bottoroff, from Fresno. Both verifie
2 CONC d that the prints were made by the same man. This was the first use o
2 CONC f a palm print, anywhere in the world, to convict a man of murder. Kuh
2 CONC l received a death sentence from the judge.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Beck given a life sentence in a separate trial, served only six year
2 CONC s before parole.
2 CONT 
2 CONT One week before Kuhl's date with death, the Board of Pardons commute
2 CONC d his sentence to life. In 1945, Governor Ted Carville, who had prosec
2 CONC uted him in the first place, signed his parole papers. Kuhl went to Sa
2 CONC n Francisco, where he died of Tuberculosis the following year.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Another well known case involved an unusual rustling scheme of the U
2 CONC C Ranch in northeastern Elko County.   . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Bob White case was another Harris investigation and perhaps, one o
2 CONC f his most mentally painful. He believed the convicted killer was inno
2 CONC cent.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Robert H. White owned and operated a restaurant in Elko, ran a taxi se
2 CONC rvice, and drove the school bus. He often made special trips to delive
2 CONC r sick students to their homes. A huge man, over six-feet tall, he wei
2 CONC ghed 280 pounds. He was genial and well-liked. White was also an activ
2 CONC e part of gambling and bootlegging businesses - that flourished in Elk
2 CONC o in 1928.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In spite of these lucrative pursuits, all was not roses with Bob. Whe
2 CONC n his wife, Kathryne, wanted to take a trip to Ireland, he was short o
2 CONC f funds. One of his closest associates was Louis Lavell, called Loui
2 CONC s the Greek.  A third man, Mike Connis, was in partnership with Whit
2 CONC e and Lavell. The three ran crooked card games at local hotels.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On Sunday, May6, 138 Connis and White knew that Lavell had over a thou
2 CONC sand dollars in cash on him and a cashe of expensive jewels at his hom
2 CONC e. Connis saw Lovell and White getting into White's car about eleven p
2 CONC .m.. It was the last time Louie the Greek was seen alive.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. and Mrs. Walter Gale and Mr. and Mrs. Opal Richardson left the mov
2 CONC ie theater that night and took a short drive. They saw White sitting i
2 CONC n his car near the Hesson powder house east of town. As they approache
2 CONC d, he sped off.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On Monday, May 7, Kathryne White caught the eastbound train for New Yo
2 CONC rk. She carried a large roll of bills ad a passport for Ireland.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At 8 p.m. that same day, unable to locate Lavelle, Connis contacted Sh
2 CONC eriff Harris who started a search. They eventually went to the Ryan pl
2 CONC ace near Secret Pass which White had leased. Mysteriously, the cabin h
2 CONC ad burned to the ground the night before leaving smoldering ruins, a f
2 CONC ew pieces of metal harness buckles, an iron bedstead and five empty, c
2 CONC harred gasoline cans.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The following afternoon, Emerson Elliott and two friends were east o
2 CONC f Elko hunting rabbits. Near the powder house, they discovered a gra
2 CONC y hat and a small pool of dried blood. Nearby was  a larger of blood
2 CONC . When they returned to town, the ELKO INDEPENDENT was on the newsstan
2 CONC ds with the story of Lavell's disappearance. Elliott immediately tol
2 CONC d Harris of his discovery. The hat belonged to Lavell.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Harris went back to the Ryan cabin early Wednesday and dug through th
2 CONC e charred debris. He found a belt buckle bearing the name Louis alon
2 CONC g with partially burned platinum dental plates and several bones.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Returning to Elko, Harris saw White nervously filling his car's gas ta
2 CONC nk at a service station. Harris picked up a warrant at the District At
2 CONC torney's office and went to the gas station, only to find White gone
2 CONC . He eluded search parties in Elko. Joe issued a nationwide bulletin f
2 CONC or his arrest.
2 CONT 
2 CONT White was captured a week later, hiding out in a bunkhouse 25 miles so
2 CONC uth of Chicago. His wife had been arrested a few hours earlier in Ne
2 CONC w York City, and police located him from an address on a telegram sh
2 CONC e sent to him. Sheriff and Mrs. Harris traveled to Chicago too bring W
2 CONC hite back to Elko.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A large, unruly crowd gathered to see White taken from the train to th
2 CONC e courthouse. A drunken member of the crowd yelled, There goes the bl
2 CONC oody murderer now! Someone kicked him in the seat of his pants and h
2 CONC e retaliated. General fighting broke out, resulting in the arrest of t
2 CONC hree men. Harris, aware of the crowd's mood, approached the courthous
2 CONC e steps with White.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Veteran newsman, Chris Sheerin said, The train stopped and the Sherif
2 CONC f came out with White. We decided to use a flash on our camera so we'
2 CONC d be sure to get a good picture of them, but we hadn't cleared this wi
2 CONC th the Sheriff, which we should have done.
2 CONT 
2 CONT As White and the lawman started into the courthouse, people shouted an
2 CONC d brawlers were subdued by deputies and local police. Suddenly, the ca
2 CONC mera flash went off. White ducked and Harris went for his gun.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The picture was a fiasco, Sheerin says. It was a mess all the way a
2 CONC round. We never got a picture and Joe Harris was disturbed. However, t
2 CONC he editor of the ELKO INDEPENDENT did a whole column about the photogr
2 CONC apher from the ELKO DAILY FREE PRESS taking a picture that didn't tur
2 CONC n out.
2 CONT 
2 CONT White was sentenced to die in the gas chamber in Carson City. He becam
2 CONC e the second man in the United States executed in this manner. Nevada
2 CONC , in 1921, was the first state to use lethal gas as capital punishment
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ruthe Gallagher of Elko, Harris' niece recalled, My Uncle Joe was s
2 CONC o distressed over this execution. He always felt that Bob White woul
2 CONC d have told him some things when they were talking the night before th
2 CONC e execution. But then the warden came in and he wouldn't talk any more
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT On June 2, 1930 White was calm and offered no resistance when strappe
2 CONC d into the chair. Warden M.R. Penrose asked if he had any last minut
2 CONC e requests. Bob smiled, then said, Yes, would you please bring me a g
2 CONC as mask?
2 CONT 
2 CONT His body, claimed by friends, was taken from the prison. Some time lat
2 CONC er, an article in a national magazine reported that Bob had been resto
2 CONC red to life and was seen in Alaska. Before Kathryne died in January, 1
2 CONC 934, she had insisted she knew nothing of any plans her husband made a
2 CONC bout Lavell. She also said she had his body cremated in San Francisco
2 CONC , thereby ending the resurrection stories.
2 CONT 
2 CONT All the sheriff's cases were not this spectacular, but they were certa
2 CONC inly interesting.
2 CONT 
2 CONT One February, he searched for Alta Peters. She stripped of her clothes
2 CONC , crawled out a basement window at the hospital and went for a walk. H
2 CONC e and forty searchers found her three miles east of town at the Gree
2 CONC n Ranch. She asked Harris if he had an overcoat. She borrowed it and a
2 CONC sked him to take her to jail. She didn't want to go back to the hospit
2 CONC al because they were trying to kill her.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Another time, Harris went to South Fork to recover some cattle. In th
2 CONC e caller's words, the cows were attached. He took his son, Jesse, wi
2 CONC th him. The cattle got away and they had to hunt them on foot.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jesse later reported that they walked 20 miles in the dark, stumblin
2 CONC g into ditches, badger holes and willows. He said the Sheriff's usua
2 CONC l jovial disposition underwent a distinct change in the process
2 CONC .  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1917, Harris went to Shafter to investigate a runaway train report
2 CONC . An inebriated railroad employee, J. Wells Brown, decided to go fo
2 CONC r a train ride. He practiced backing and going forward until he derail
2 CONC ed a passenger coach. he panicked, opened the throttle, and leaped of
2 CONC f the engine. It jumped the track and plowed through 400 yards of sage
2 CONC brush before finally stopping.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Brown, unarmed when Harris approached him, submitted to arrest. His wi
2 CONC fe, though, had an automatic weapon concealed in her bosom. She gav
2 CONC e the gun to Joe and he asked her to leave the room where he and deput
2 CONC y were questioning her husband. She left and returned almost immediate
2 CONC ly with a loaded, cocked rifle. She herded the two lawmen into an adjo
2 CONC ining room. She pointed the rifle at Joe and pulled the trigger. Fortu
2 CONC nately, she had forgotten to press the ejector in and the gun didn't f
2 CONC ire.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The two lawmen struggled with her and she fought like a wildcat, kicki
2 CONC ng and screaming. She then attacked Harris with a pair of scissors. Di
2 CONC sarmed a third time, she and her errant husband finally were hauled of
2 CONC f to jail.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT On August 15, 1933 Harris and a deputy drove to the UC Ranch. They wer
2 CONC e looking for Steven Smith, a fugitive named on a warrant from Califor
2 CONC nia. They contacted the ranch foreman, Archie Bowman, and the three we
2 CONC nt to a field where the suspect was running a mowing machine. They app
2 CONC roached him and talked about the warrant. Smith said he would tie th
2 CONC e horses and come along peacefully. He tied his team to a fence at th
2 CONC e edge of the field, suddenly whirled around and began shooting.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Harris, hit in the neck, ended up in a ditch after dropping his gun. S
2 CONC mith took a ranch hand hostage and stole a car for his getaway. He wa
2 CONC s apprehended about four days later and returned to California.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The day after the encounter, (John) Oldham (of Elko), noticed Joe limp
2 CONC ing and commented, Mr. Harris, I heard you fell in a ditch.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The lawman growled, Fell in a ditch? Like hell! I jumped in. I'd rath
2 CONC er be a live coward than a dead hero.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Harris turned down an offer of the warden's job at the State Prison i
2 CONC n Carson City in 1923. IN 1935, Reno officials asked him to be Chief o
2 CONC f Police. At the time, Reno was a wide open western town and city fath
2 CONC ers wanted a strong, proven lawman to clean it up. Harris refused th
2 CONC e job. He wanted to stay in Elko County where he knew everyone by firs
2 CONC t name.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He never wore a uniform. According to Chris Sheerin, he usually wor
2 CONC e a big hat and western garb - light tan shirt and pants. (Sheerin sai
2 CONC d,) He was a personable and fine looking man. He looked like a sherif
2 CONC f.  . . . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Truly, the Court convened as Court of Sorrow in 1936. The sentence o
2 CONC f the court was that The Sheriff will still be remembered with affect
2 CONC ion and respect more than fifty years from now.  He is remembered, af
2 CONC fectionally and with respect, 56 years later.

1 NOTE The following biographical sketch about Laurence was sent to the compi
2 CONC ler by Susan Decious on November 25, 1998. This sketch was written whe
2 CONC n Laurence was 27 years old:
2 CONT 
2 CONT HISTORY OF MENDOCINO AND LAKE COUNTIES by Aurelius O. Carpenter and Pe
2 CONC rcy H. Millberry, 1914:
2 CONT 
2 CONT LAURENCE A. WEMPLE - Among the prominent hustling young business men i
2 CONC n Laytonville is Laurence A. Wemple, postmaster at Laytonville, who i
2 CONC s also engaged in the blacksmithing, carriage-making and automobile re
2 CONC pairing business under the firm name of Downing & Wemple, and in als
2 CONC o the manager of the Willits Telephone and Telegraph Company. He was b
2 CONC orn at Milford, Lassen county, California, May 21, 1888, the grandso
2 CONC n of Joseph Wemple, who came from Michigan across the plains with ox t
2 CONC eams to California in 1860, locating in Lassen county. There he improv
2 CONC ed a farm at Milford, on which he still resides. One of his sons, Joh
2 CONC n B., was born at Milford, where he in turn became a farmer and marrie
2 CONC d Abbie E. Winslow, who came from Vermont to California. They now resi
2 CONC de at their ranch at Standish, Lassen county.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Of their family of six children, Laurence A. is the third oldest, an
2 CONC d his boyhood was spent on the farm at Milford. There he received hi
2 CONC s education in the public schools, after which he attended the Santa R
2 CONC osa Business College, graduating in 1908 with a standing of ninety-eig
2 CONC ht and five-eights per cent. The same year his father had brought catt
2 CONC le and horses from the home ranch to Santa Rosa for sale, but the sal
2 CONC e was so slow that he and his son brought them to Long Valley, where t
2 CONC he latter looked after them until they were disposed of.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Laurence A. Wemple then started to learn the blacksmith trade with J.R
2 CONC . Downing, continuing for three years; meantime, April 1, 1911, he wa
2 CONC s appointed postmaster at Laytonville and has since held the position
2 CONC . After being appointed postmaster, he quit blacksmithing for the tim
2 CONC e being, but September, 1914, he formed a partnership with his forme
2 CONC r employer, and as Downing and Wemple they are engaged in the genera
2 CONC l blacksmith business, including carriage making, as well as automobil
2 CONC e repairing. As manager of the Willits Telephone and Telegraph Company
2 CONC , Mr. Wemple has charge of all the lines of the company from Laytonvil
2 CONC le as a center, the three lines running to Willits, Westport, and Cove
2 CONC lo.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple was married in Ukiah, being united with Miss Alma N. Clifto
2 CONC n, a native daughter of Mendocino county, born in Covelo, who ably ass
2 CONC ists him in the post office. They have one child, Clifton L. Fraternal
2 CONC ly Mr. Wemple is an active member of Cahto Lodge No. 206. I.O.O.F., i
2 CONC n which he is the present vice grand.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Note from the compiler:
2 CONT 
2 CONT A few years after this above article was written, Laurence returned t
2 CONC o Honey Lake Valley and set up a blacksmith shop in Standish and helpe
2 CONC d his father on his farm, which was within five miles of Standish. Eve
2 CONC ntually, he closed the blacksmith shop and in addition to farming, h
2 CONC e went to work for the Lassen County Road Department, where he worke
2 CONC d for the next 30 years or so, until he retired. Laurence and Alma wer
2 CONC e close friends to the compiler's parents and they socialized for man
2 CONC y years, including having Thanksgivings together.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Alma called the compiler's parents one evening and asked them to com
2 CONC e over because Laurence was very sick and she felt that he was dying a
2 CONC nd wanted them with her. As Claude was helping Laurence out to the ca
2 CONC r in which he was driven to the hospital, Laurence took one last loo
2 CONC k around the room he was in, which was their kitchen, as if he knew h
2 CONC e would never see it again.  DRW

2 CONT 
2 CONT About 8:30 on Monday night while a crowd of about twenty-five peopl

2 CONC .  F.L. Shanklin, employment agent for the Fruit Growers' Supply Compa

2 CONC ew a wooden spool to Winn.  He then ran for a pike pole, but gave ou
2 CONC t before he could reach the scene of the accident and the pole was tak
2 CONC en to Winn by another skater.  By this time Winn had become so cold an
2 CONC d numb that he had been unable to any longer hold young Wemple and ha
2 CONC d him securely held between his legs.  Shanklin started to work over y
2 CONC oung Wemple, but stated at the coroner's inquest that there was no sig
2 CONC n of life.  Winn was in a very serious condition and both he and the b
2 CONC oy were rushed to the Riverside hospital where the doctors worked ove
2 CONC r young Wemple for an hour, but without success.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There was no water in the boy's lungs and it was the doctor's opinio

2 CONC s severe and it is believed he was dead before Winn reached him.  Mr
2 CONC . Winn was in very serious condition for several days at the hospital
2 CONC , but is now on the rapid road to recovery.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Too much cannot be said of the heroism of Winn, who at the risk of hi
2 CONC s life and without a moment's hesitation jumped to the rescue of the d
2 CONC rowning boy.  Winn is the father of three little children.  His wife d
2 CONC ied a year ago.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The funeral of young Wemple took place yesterday from the Methodist C
2 CONC hurch of Susanville, the Rev. Ira E. Price officiating.  The student
2 CONC s of the lower grades of the grammer school turned out en masse.  Mast
2 CONC er Wemple was beloved by all and his loss is keenly felt.  Many were t
2 CONC he people who came in from the surrounding country to pay their last r
2 CONC espects. Interment was in the Milford Cemetery.

2 CONT JESS HARRIS
2 CONT THE FLYING SHERIFF
2 CONT by Carol Hendershot
2 CONT 
2 CONT On January 30, 1903 the ELKO DAILY INDEPENDENT printed a small. prophe
2 CONC tic birth announcement: Joe Harris is the proudest man in town. The c
2 CONC ause of it all is the arrival of a young voter at his house yesterday
2 CONC . May the youngster grow up to be as good a man as his father.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT This young voter was Jesse Crawford Harris, son of Sheriff and Mrs
2 CONC . Joseph C. Harris, and he did fulfill the wish expressed in his birt
2 CONC h announcement. He grew up to be an aircraft mechanic, a motorcycle po
2 CONC lice officer, a test pilot and, following in his father's footsteps, E
2 CONC lko County Sheriff for more than twenty years. He also became known na
2 CONC tionally as The Flying Sheriff.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jess preferred to spell his name without the final e and called hims
2 CONC elf Joos as a child, a nickname which stayed with him all his life a
2 CONC nd was especially appropriate during his young adult years.
2 CONT 
2 CONT he began an independent lifestyle early. When Jess was six years old
2 CONC , he told his dad he didn't want to go to school because, I don't kno
2 CONC w nuthin'. He wrapped his arms and legs around a piano stool and hel
2 CONC d on. Unable to pry him loose, Sheriff Joe Harris carried him and th
2 CONC e piano stool to Rose Gardene's first grade class.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT When Jess was 17, he went with his father to meet the first air mail p
2 CONC lane to fly into Elko and that experience fired his lifelong love of a
2 CONC irplanes. He even perfected his signature so the J in Jess looked lik
2 CONC e a propeller. He was offered a job at he airport and for he next seve
2 CONC n years, worked as a mechanic with a group of young people.  . . . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Pilot William Blanchfield flew into Elko in an open cockpit U.S. Mai
2 CONC l plane and left it with Jess to be serviced. (John) Oldham (of Elko
2 CONC ) borrowed a car and took Blanchfield to the Mayer Hotel to eat, leavi
2 CONC ng Jess to work on the plane. During the meal, they heard a plane buzz
2 CONC ing the hotel. Knowing his was the only plane in Elko at he time, Blan
2 CONC chfield rushed out and saw his plane flying in the direction of the ai
2 CONC rport. Without finishing dinner, they returned to the field in time t
2 CONC o see Jess make a perfect three-point landing. Jess had never been u
2 CONC p in  a plane before but explained to Blanchfield that he wanted him t
2 CONC o know the plane was serviced and ready to go.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1928, Jess delivered a stolen car to Santa Barbara, California fo
2 CONC r his dad. While there, he met some friends who asked if he was intere
2 CONC sted in a job as a motorcycle cop in Burbank. He was and when he joine
2 CONC d the force he received his brand new uniform. He daughter, Jodi, says
2 CONC , The second day after receiving his new uniform, the cycle slid ou
2 CONC t from under him. When the smoke cleared he had to buy a new uniform a
2 CONC nd wasn't quite as smart as he thought he was. Jess told her he event
2 CONC ually left a little skin on every intersection in the San Fernando Val
2 CONC ley.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1940, a friend suggested that Jess apply for a job as a pilot wit
2 CONC h Lockheed and he began ferrying planes in August. Jess said, One da
2 CONC y I was ferrying a P-38 to Palmdale (California) when Tony LeVier pull
2 CONC ed in on my wing until our wings overlapped. We were playing a game o
2 CONC f chicken out.  Jess stayed right with him until they began putting d
2 CONC ents in the aluminum and then punched the mike button and asked LeVie
2 CONC r if he thought they'd proved everything they wanted to prove.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jess later checked out as a production test pilot with Lockheed, a jo
2 CONC b he held until June, 1945. He flew everything that Lockheed built. Je
2 CONC ss said, Test flying was interesting. I had my share of engines blowi
2 CONC ng up on takeoff, but never used a chute.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jess met Florence Gorny, a cashier and hostess in a restaurant near Lo
2 CONC ckheed and they were married July 1. 1944. When Lockheed began experim
2 CONC enting with jets soon after their marriage, Jess left the company. H
2 CONC e and Florence moved home to Elko. Their only child, Joellen Carol
2 CONC e (Jodi) was born September 28, 1946.
2 CONT 
2 CONT That same year, Jess ran for sheriff against Charles Smith and was def
2 CONC eated. Smith immediately appointed him undersheriff, launching Jess o
2 CONC n his second law enforcement career.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1950, Jess was elected Elko County Sheriff for the first time. he w
2 CONC as never defeated after that, sometimes running against several oppone
2 CONC nts and sometimes unopposed. In a turnabout from the election in 194
2 CONC 6 when Charlie Smith defeated him, he immediately appointed Smith a
2 CONC s a deputy.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Florence is intensely proud of the years Jess spent as Sheriff and was
2 CONC , herself, an unfailing source of strength, support and encouragemen
2 CONC t to him. She says he was on duty 24-hours a day of often got calls i
2 CONC n the middle of the night. When he left. she never knew for sure whe
2 CONC n he would be back. She kept water, survival gear and lunch packed s
2 CONC o no matter when he had to go, or what the weather was like, he was al
2 CONC ways ready. She often served as matron when female prisoners were invo
2 CONC lved and as a temporary mother in cases involving juveniles.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She says Jess, like his father, did not wear a uniform, but he did pi
2 CONC n on with much joy the solid gold star that was custom-made for Joe
2 CONC . He carried a gun, but seldom drew it, relying instead, on courtesy a
2 CONC nd his ability to talk people into doing what he wanted them to do
2 CONC .  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT He could fly into Jarbidge, for instance, in 30 minutes, a trip that o
2 CONC nce took his father three days by train, wagon and horseback
2 CONC .  . . .  More than once he flew in and picked up a sick or injured re
2 CONC sident after landing on top of a rocky, sagebrush covered plateau at t
2 CONC he edge of town. The plateau sat in a narrow valley between steep, hig
2 CONC h mountains that showed no mercy for pilot error. If he had to come i
2 CONC n after dark, the residents would line up their cars with the headligh
2 CONC ts on so he could see the landing field. They bought an old car and le
2 CONC ft it parked at the airfield so Jess wouldn't have to walk into town
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jess could talk people into anything. In all the years I worked wit
2 CONC h him, I never did see him lose his temper,  Stenovich said. There w
2 CONC eren't any shootouts and nobody ever got away from Jess and me when w
2 CONC e were together. The only time he ever saw Jess almost lose his tempe
2 CONC r was when Jodi took his loaded .38-caliber pistol to school for sho
2 CONC w and tell when she was nine years old.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jess investigated a grisly murder the day after Christmas in 1965. Th
2 CONC e emasculated body of a man eventually identified as John Russell Blai
2 CONC r was discovered by sledders on Adobe Summit. he had been shot three t
2 CONC imes in the head. The legend Born to Raise Hell was tattooed on on
2 CONC e arm and the dead man was at first incorrectly identified by a Reno w
2 CONC oman. Jess said his office had reports of at least eight missing men w
2 CONC ith the same tattoo. There was more than one suspect in the case whic
2 CONC h was not solved until two years later, when Neil Phillips of Carlin s
2 CONC urrendered to Jess after a warrant was issued for his arrest. Phillip
2 CONC s was convicted and sentenced to life in prison.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Owen Barton, a rancher from the Diamond A Desert, had been searching o
2 CONC n horseback and by  truck for several days for some lost cattle and as
2 CONC ked Jess to help him with an air search. He was so impressed with Jess
2 CONC 's help in locating his cattle my airplane that he bought one himself
2 CONC . Barton wrote and recited a poem about Jess at the 1988 Cowboy Poetr
2 CONC y Gathering in Elko. Titled ELKO LAWMAN - JESS HARRIS it begins:
2 CONT 
2 CONT There's been some famous lawmen
2 CONT Who bought law and order to the West,
2 CONT For twenty-five years in Elko County
2 CONT There was one of the best.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Bat Masterson, Wyatt Earp and Matt Dillon
2 CONT All were men of fame, 
2 CONT But here in Northern Nevada,
2 CONT Jess Harris was the name.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jess earned many honors during his years of service. Some of his case
2 CONC s were written up in national magazines: INSIDE DETECTIVE, TRUE DETECT
2 CONC IVE (twice), STARTLING DETECTIVE, and the FBI LAW ENFORCEMENT BULLETIN
2 CONC . MASTER DETECTIVE MAGAZINE named him Police Officer of the Month i
2 CONC n 1970. Nevada Governor Paul Laxalt presented the award. NATIONAL GEOG
2 CONC RAPHIC asked Jess to participate in their film segment, The Haunted W
2 CONC est,  which featured his use of an airplane in law enforcement
2 CONC .  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jess decided not to run for re-election when his term expired in 1974
2 CONC . To clear up all leftover business, he left Elko on the morning of De
2 CONC cember 14, 1974 in a snowstorm to deliver two prisoners to Carson City
2 CONC . The weather got worse and soon Jess was flying below power lines t
2 CONC o see the road. He flew into a blind canyon and, in turning, clippe
2 CONC d a wing on a mountain side, and crashed.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was severely injured, lost consciousness, and was trapped in the co
2 CONC ckpit of the wrecked plane. The two prisoners, Ivan Dambrowskie (aka D
2 CONC onald Mentel) and Jack Lindsey, were also injured.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At the time of the crash, were were over $200 and a loaded gun in th
2 CONC e plane. Lindsey, who was not severely injured, could have easily aban
2 CONC doned Jess and Dambrowskie. Instead, he helped Dambrowskie to a nearb
2 CONC y shack and tried to free Jess, but could not. He covered him with hi
2 CONC s own jacket and returned to the shack where he built a fire. Througho
2 CONC ut the stormy night, he continually went back and forth between the fi
2 CONC re and Jess, where he lay down against him trying to keep him warm.
2 CONT 
2 CONT They were rescued in the early morning hours of December 15, after the
2 CONC ir electric beeper was finally traced. The two prisoners were hospital
2 CONC ized and then turned over to prison authorities. Lindsey was later par
2 CONC doned as a result of his actions at the crash site.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jess sustained chest injuries and suffered a severe stoke because of h
2 CONC is terrible head injury. He later said his head got bent up a little.
2 CONC   He was hospitalized in Reno and Elko for several months and then Fl
2 CONC orence brought him home where he made a remarkable partial recovery.
2 CONT 
2 CONT August 29, 1975 was proclaimed J.C. Harris Day, and a well-attende
2 CONC d ceremony was held changing the name of Elko's airport to J.C. Harri
2 CONC s Field, in honor of Jess and his father. Mayor George Corner, in anno
2 CONC uncing the name change said, Jess C. Harris, son of Joe C. Harris, ..
2 CONC .Served with distinction and dedication and...exhibited an exceptional
2 CONC ly high degree of dedication, unselfish service, good citizenship an
2 CONC d family life.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A huge retirement dinner had been held August 22, 1975.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jess and Florence spent their next few winters visiting Jodi and her f
2 CONC amily in Yuma, Arizona where Jess's storytelling was a favorite form o
2 CONC f entertainment.  . . . Jess died March 8, 1980. After the funeral Flo
2 CONC rence wrote:

2 CONC e above mentioned lot was on the east corner of State and Center stree
2 CONC ts and the front of the lot is now occupied by the Carley House. The d
2 CONC eed conveying this lot is valuable for several reasons. It proves tha
2 CONC t Barent and Jan were brothers, and sons of Barent, besides, identifyi
2 CONC ng Barent Jr.) as a resident in after years, of another locality. On M

2 CONC s of the Mohawk Country, in the County of Albany, convey the some lo
2 CONC t in Schenectady, together with other property, to Ava van Driessen, o
2 CONC f Albany (see document No. 50). This deed effectually proves that, i

2 CONC ch was the designation given to that part of the valley of the Mohaw
2 CONC k River lying west of Amsterdam (Pearson's HISTORY OF THE SCHENECTAD

2 CONC h came to him through his grandfather, Jan Barentsen Wemp, to whom hal
2 CONC f of the island was granted on November 123, 1662 (document No.15). i

2 CONC utch Reformed Church on March 7, 1756.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT The farm on which John B. Wemple was born was owned and occupied fro
2 CONC m an early day by his father, being situated about one mile east of Ca
2 CONC ughnawaga (now Fonda), and five hundred acres of which his father subs
2 CONC equently deeded to him; 375 acres were held by him the remainder of hi
2 CONC s lifetime and here he always resided. His property was next east of t
2 CONC hat belonging to Major Jelles Fonda and at which point the latter live
2 CONC d , doing there the bulk of his very extensive business, until late i
2 CONC n his life, when he removed to the extreme western part of the Town; t
2 CONC his this locality was quite a busy center, although the village of Cau
2 CONC ghnawaga was situated about a mile to the westward. Here John, in addi
2 CONC tion, to his industry of farming, plied the trade of blacksmith and fo
2 CONC r this purpose erected a shop and forge (see document No. 57).
2 CONT 
2 CONT Of the 500 acres of land deeded to him by his father, he sold 125 acre
2 CONC s to his brother-in-law, Dirk Philip Groot.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On the 19th November 1776, he was compelled to mortgage the remainin
2 CONC g land to John Sanders, of Schenectady, for L567, and being unable t
2 CONC o pay it, was forced to renew it by giving, on March 6, 1783, a new mo
2 CONC rtgage which included the original one with accrued interest and was i
2 CONC n the sum of L617. 10. 0. Both mortgages are recorded in the Montgomer
2 CONC y County Clerk's office at Fonda in BOOK OF MORTGAGES No. 1, the firs
2 CONC t on page 18 and the second on page 28 (see document Nos. 52 and 53).
2 CONT 
2 CONT What a mirror of the times these two mortgages are ---- the first give
2 CONC n at the outbreak of the Revolutionary War, no doubt in consequence o
2 CONC f the generally depressed condition of finances and commerce attendan
2 CONC t on the anticipated strife; the second, made necessary after more att
2 CONC ention to field duties than the home work, the endeavor for liberty fr
2 CONC om a dominant foreign power, the loss of fireside, buildings, crops an
2 CONC d utensils as the result of two fiendish raids, and he utter worthless
2 CONC ness of money and absence of business had rendered it impossible for t
2 CONC he ordinary man to secure sufficient means of a negotiable character t
2 CONC o liquidate a claim of this nature.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Particular attention is called to these two mortgages, because they bo
2 CONC th especially mention the mortgagor as John Barent Wemple, thus conc
2 CONC lusively showing him to be the son of Barent; and the fact is also rec
2 CONC orded in both that his property was conveyed to him by Barent Wemple (
2 CONC his father).
2 CONT 
2 CONT The house now owned and occupied by William Stube is on the site of hi
2 CONC s former dwelling and he front doors of the old house, which is very h

2 CONC diately arrayed himself on the side of liberty and native land, enlist
2 CONC ing in the fourth company of the third battalion of the Tryon County M
2 CONC ilitia and at its very establishment, August 26, 1775, was commissione
2 CONC d first lieutenant, under Captain John Fisher, in Colonel Frederick Fi
2 CONC sher's regiment, thus serving under these two patriot brothers who wer
2 CONC e his neighbors of a mile and a half east. In a book labeled MILITAR
2 CONC Y RETURNS,  1775-76. in the State Library, Albany, NY, under date of A
2 CONC ugust 26, 1775, is the record of his appointment as first lieutenant
2 CONC ; in another book labeled COUNCIL OF APPOINTMENT --- CIVIL AND MILITAR
2 CONC Y, A, 1777-1786, also in the State Library, his reappointment as firs
2 CONC t lieutenant, dated June 25, 1778, is  noted on page 98. His captain
2 CONC , John Fisher, having been massacred on May 21, 1780, he was immediate
2 CONC ly advanced to the rank of captain and received L1. 4. 4. as his firs
2 CONC t pay in that grade for previous rendered from date of appointment t
2 CONC o and including May 23, 1780 --- probably about two days. On page 21
2 CONC 4 of COUNCIL OF APPOINTMENT  --- CIVIL AND MILITARY, A, 1777-1786, i
2 CONC n the State Library, it is recorded that he was still captain of the c
2 CONC ompany on March 8, 1781and he continued in that capacity to the clos
2 CONC e of the Revolution; after the war was at an end this regiment and com
2 CONC pany preserved its organization, without any material change in office
2 CONC rs, for a number of years. In a record labeled NEW YORK MILITARY APPOI
2 CONC NTMENTS, 1786-1802, in the State Library, Albany, NY on page 31, unde
2 CONC r the heading APPOINTMENTS FOR MONTGOMERY COUNTY, is shown the fact th
2 CONC at John B. Wemple was still captain of the same company on October 2
2 CONC , 1786. It is to be remarked that this last record contains the middl
2 CONC e letter B of his name, thus proving that Captain John Wemple was re
2 CONC ally John B. Wemple. He served with valor and distinction at every cal
2 CONC l of his company and especially in the famous battle of Oriskany, Augu
2 CONC st 6, 1777, as well as in the battle of Johnstown, October 24, 1781. T
2 CONC he last mentioned record contains after his name, the letters Dd, me
2 CONC aning deceased, and conveys the intelligence that he died between tha
2 CONC t date and the next record. The succeeding record shows another perso
2 CONC n at the head of the company/

2 CONT The original pay-roll of Colonel Frederick Fisher's regiment is deposi
2 CONC ted in the office of the State Comptroller and contained in volume 1
2 CONC 0 of MANUSCRIPTS OF THE COLONY AND  STATE OF NEW YORK IN THE REVOLUTIO
2 CONC NARY WAR, at folio 106, page 12, where he receipts for his pay as lieu
2 CONC tenant and captain for services rendered in the Revolution.  . . . (se
2 CONC e documents Nos.55, 56).
2 CONT 
2 CONT Services were not paid for in cash but in interest bearing certificate
2 CONC s and the Militia was not even paid these until 1784. Each certificat
2 CONC e was issued in payment for services rendered within the various perio
2 CONC ds and the account of all certificates was kept by the State Treasure
2 CONC r in books are now deposited in the State Library, Albany, NY. From th
2 CONC eses books can be ascertained quite accurately the number of days in e
2 CONC ach period that as lieutenant and captain he performed military duty
2 CONC , when it is known that according to law a lieutenant received $26 2/
2 CONC 3 and a captain #40.00 per month, ana a pound was worth about $2.50
2 CONC .  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT At the time of the awful raid made by Sir John Johnson on the Caughnaw
2 CONC aga settlement along the Mohawk River, May 21, 1780, John B. Wemple, o
2 CONC n account of his loyalty to the principles of freedom and his allianc
2 CONC e with the resisting forces to English occupation, was the target fo
2 CONC r bitter revenge and the object on which to vent royalist and tory hat
2 CONC red. Although he and his family escaped with their lives from the comb
2 CONC ined British, tory and Indian forces, yet they were unable to save any
2 CONC thing in their flight and upon the approach of the raiders his dwellin
2 CONC g, with all its contents, was destroyed, as were also he tenant house
2 CONC , blacksmith-shop, barns, barracks and in fact everything that could b
2 CONC e possibly be burned. After their departure, the spot presented a scen
2 CONC e of utter desolation and when he returned to the ruins of his home, t
2 CONC o add to his further discomfiture, he found himself even deprived of t
2 CONC he former assistance of two Negro servants, four cows, and three horse
2 CONC s which were either stolen of killed at the time.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Notwithstanding all the disheartening events and conditions, he manage
2 CONC d to erect  an unpretentious dwelling to shelter the family, a blacksm
2 CONC ith-shop, barn and barrack, at the same time endeavoring to do his dut
2 CONC y in the home work and serving his country whenever the militia was ca
2 CONC lled to arms, until the third decent by Sir John Johnson on the Mohaw
2 CONC k Valley, which occurred October 18, 1781, when again he was one of th
2 CONC e persecuted the extent of the fire brand being applied not only to th
2 CONC e modest buildings he had erected in place of the former, larger and b
2 CONC etter ones, but also lost by fire all the hay and grain which was th
2 CONC e result of the summer harvest. He and his family were again fortunat
2 CONC e enough to escape the blood-thirsty assassins; but without the actua
2 CONC l experience who can appreciate the terror attendant on these two drea
2 CONC dful raids, when they knew not if their every moment was their last, a
2 CONC nd after the danger to life was finally past, to return to their desol
2 CONC ated farm and be compelled to almost start their lives anew, starvatio
2 CONC n staring them in the face by reason of the destruction of their winte
2 CONC r stores at such a season, yet, through all this dire calamity, neve
2 CONC r swerving from the purpose to throw the yoke of thralldom. Such men a
2 CONC nd women too, are heroes and heroines indeed and a cause upheld by suc
2 CONC h a people could not fail.

2 CONT A (record of loss) . . . which John B. Wemple sustained during both ra
2 CONC ids, (along with) a great many similar claims, against the State in th
2 CONC e hope that provision would be made for reimbursement, but nothing wa
2 CONC s ever accomplished in that direction. The original account is in th
2 CONC e office of the State Comptroller, Albany, the package containing it b
2 CONC eing labeled LOSSES SUSTAINED BY THE ENEMY and a copy of it, certifie
2 CONC d by Hon James A. Roberts, Comptroller, under the official seal of hi
2 CONC s office, is also shown (see document No. 57).
2 CONT 
2 CONT During the latter part of the Revolutionary War, it was necessary fo
2 CONC r the State of New York to raise two regiments to go into the Continen
2 CONC tal service and, in order to complete them, each regiment of the Stat
2 CONC e Militia was divided in classes containing a specified number of me
2 CONC n. Every class was obliged to either select one of their own number, o
2 CONC r procure one man, to be mustered in the United Stares army; in retur
2 CONC n for doing this, the class was given a certain number of acres of l
2 CONC and by the State.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Captain John Wemple was the head of the class to which he belonged a
2 CONC nd the majority of the class transferred to him all their right, tit
2 CONC le and interest in the 200 acres bounty land received for procuring Jo
2 CONC hn Casselman to represent them in the Continental service. One third o
2 CONC f this bounty he conveyed to Isaac Vrooman and gave power to the latte
2 CONC r to locate the land in his own name. Vrooman located 9400 acres, in w
2 CONC hich this was included, north of the Mohawk River and on the east sid
2 CONC e of Canada Creek, the tract was granted him on December 15, 1789, alt
2 CONC hough upon its being surveyed it was found to contain 9767 acres
2 CONC .  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT John B. Wemple died March 1, 1787, while still a young man.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In November 1900, the compiler submitted proof to the Oneida Historica
2 CONC l Society, Utica, NY, custodians of the Oriskany Battlefield Monumen
2 CONC t showing that John Barent Wemple participated in the Battle of Oriska
2 CONC ny, August 6, 1777. The proofs were considered convincing and accepte
2 CONC d by the Society. A resolution was adopted authorizing the name of tho
2 CONC se who served in that famous fight, and which is now truly looked upo
2 CONC n as a roster of heroes names. The name John Barent Wemple was therefo
2 CONC re placed on the tablet in February 1902, at the upper right hand corn
2 CONC er. In recognition of a slight favor done (for) the Society by the com
2 CONC piler, the Society had the name plate cast in Chicago and riveted to t
2 CONC he large tablet at its own expense, which was not a slight one. The ac
2 CONC t is very greatly appreciated. In document No. 68 will be found a cert
2 CONC ificate, under seal of (the) Society, setting forth the facts as abov
2 CONC e stated.

2 CONT The following is from a manuscript sent to the compiler on September 2
2 CONC 8, 2000 by Michael Lee Wemple of Bay City, MI. This manuscript was wri
2 CONC tten by William Barent Wemple, compiler of the first part if this gene
2 CONC alogy from 1885-1913. The manuscript was never published.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Johannes Wemp was born in Schenectady about 1675 but now document ca
2 CONC n now be found which definitely gives the date, because the church rec
2 CONC ords as well as nearly all other papers were lost in the destruction o
2 CONC f Schenectady on Feb. 9 1689/90.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At the time of this occurrence, Jan was captured and taken to Canada a
2 CONC s a prisoner, along with two of his father's slaves. An official repor
2 CONC t of the attack and its result was made to the Alderman of Albany whic
2 CONC h mentions Jan Wemp, son of Myndert Wemp, with two negers as among t
2 CONC hose made prisoners. This report is bound in a book entitled MORTGAG
2 CONC E BOOK, 1753-1765, in the Albany County Clerk's office and is include
2 CONC d in the minutes of that date.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jan was finally restored to liberty and returned to his home but jus
2 CONC t how long he was retained as a prisoner is not known.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Notwithstanding the loss of his birth record and his subsequent captur
2 CONC e, there is no trouble to easily prove the Jan Wemp, who for so many y
2 CONC ears occupied such a prominent and influential position on the Mohaw
2 CONC k Valley and was the owner of a great deal of very valuable land, to t
2 CONC he son of Myndert Janse Wemp and the person claimed.
2 CONT 
2 CONT His father, as has been elsewhere shown, was one of the original trust
2 CONC ees of the Schenectady Patent, by virtue of the Dongan grant made Nov
2 CONC . 1, 1684, and upon Myndert's death in 1690 his son Jan acted in his s
2 CONC tead. as soon as the law would permit, in the capacity of eldest son a
2 CONC nd heir,in all matters concerning the administration of the affairs re
2 CONC lating to the Patent. In DEEDS D-No. 4, Albany County Clerk's office
2 CONC , is recorded a conveyance dated Feb. 27,1689/90. wherein Jan Myndert
2 CONC se Wemp, son of Myndert Wemp, deceased, unites with the other trustee
2 CONC s of the Schenectady Patent in granting to Gysbert Marceelis some isla
2 CONC nds in the Mohawk river at Schenectady. Although the body of the dee
2 CONC d mentions him as Jan Myndertse Wemp he signs it simply as Jan Wemp
2 CONC  and which was ever his customary signature, with two exceptions.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In the same office, a similar deed in recorded in DEEDS E-No. 5 -DEED
2 CONC S AND WILLS 2, on page 106, dated June 3, 1701, which reads as follows

2 CONT 
2 CONT On 11th October, 1711, he and four others made a contract with Governo
2 CONC r Hunter for the erection of two forts --- one at Fort Hunter (named i
2 CONC n honor of the governor), the other at Onondage; the were to be comple

2 CONC w months prior to his being a resident of the Mohawks County, as alr

1 NOTE Ella Kate Wemple Wilson, Myndert's fourth great-granddaughter, submitt
2 CONC ed this paper to the Schenectady County Historical Society.  It is tit
2 CONC led Myndert Wemple 1701-1738 and dated August 1, 1988, prepared by Mrs
2 CONC . Ella-Kate Wemple Wilson:
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert Wemple was baptized in the Schenectady Reformed Church Novembe
2 CONC r 9, 1701, the first born son of Johannes Wemp and Catalina Schermerho
2 CONC rn. (1-1)  Both parents belonged to families with large landholdings a
2 CONC nd they held positions of influence in the community.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Three more children were born in the household and when Myndert was ab
2 CONC out age 7 his mother died.  In 1909 his father married again, to Ariaa
2 CONC ntje Swits. (2-1)
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert's grandfather, Reyer Schermerhorn, died February 1719 and bequ
2 CONC eathed farmland to the four children of Catalina, on the Seventh Fla
2 CONC t on the north side of the Mohawk River.  This land they held until 17
2 CONC 33. (3-1)
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert left home and went to Boston to work for his cousin, Jacob Wen
2 CONC dell.  Jacob was born in Albany in 1691 and moved to Boston where he b
2 CONC ecame a well known merchant and ship owner.  A nephew, John Wendell, b
2 CONC ecame associated with him in business. (4-1) In time, Jacob Wendell pr
2 CONC omoted Myndert Wemple to be the captain of his sloop Albany for trad
2 CONC ing along the eastern seaboard and Caribbean ports.  Boston newspaper
2 CONC s reported the arrivals and departures of all trading vessels as show
2 CONC n on (the) enclosed page, and thus we have a list of Voges made.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ben Franklin's PENNSYLVANIA GAZETTE reported a hurricane in the port o
2 CONC f Charleston, SC on August 27, 1730.  He lists eleven vessels in port
2 CONC ; he lists the the ships which were lost, and he lists others which ro
2 CONC de out the storm.  In the latter group was the Sloop Albany of Boston
2 CONC , Mindert Wemple, Master. (5-1)
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert was probably on his way to his wedding.  The entry in the Sain
2 CONC t Peters Parish Register of Talbot County, MD shows Captain Mangret Wi
2 CONC mple married Sarah Mills October 22, 1730.  One wonders if that was th
2 CONC e way he pronounced his name?  According to the same Parish Register
2 CONC , Sarah Mills was baptized there December, 1707, the daughter of Davi
2 CONC d and Mary Mills. (See enclosure)
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Captain took his bride to Boston to live and he continued his coas
2 CONC twise trading.  The Maryland Historical Society has the original recor
2 CONC d of the Port of Oxford on the eastern shore of Maryland showing tha
2 CONC t on December 13, 1731 Cap'n Mindert Wimple in the Sloop Albany, pai
2 CONC d the fees and duties of 19 pounds, 14 shillings and 8 Pense for his c
2 CONC argo of English goods, rum and Madera wine, and he left the port agai
2 CONC n on March 23. (See enclosure)
2 CONT 
2 CONT The master of a ship trading in the Chesapeake was obliged not only t
2 CONC o navigate his ship, but also to dispose of the cargo, purchase tobacc
2 CONC o and engage freight.  From activity of this sort it was a short ste
2 CONC p to settle down and become a merchant in his own right.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On October 21, 1735 Mindert Wymple, mariner, bought from Anthony Richa
2 CONC rdson, gent. of Talbot County for 60 pounds current money of Marylan
2 CONC d 250 acres of land in Dorchester County on the Great Choptank River
2 CONC . (1-2)  This was an excellent site for his purpose.  The Choptank wa
2 CONC s navigable from the Chesapeake Bay up to Cabin Creek, and the surroun
2 CONC ding farm lands were already cultivated for commercial production of t
2 CONC obacco.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert died in March 1738.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The next record is an Inventory of the goods and chattels of Minder
2 CONC t Wimple, late of Dorchester County, Deceased, 8th day of November Ann
2 CONC o 1739 (1-3)
2 CONT 
2 CONT The inventory reflects a man who was well dressed, lived conformably
2 CONC , had settled down to become a merchant in his own right, and a plante
2 CONC r of tobacco and farm products like his neighbors.  He had 3 cows, a s
2 CONC mall bull and a heifer, 2 large oxen, 10 head sheep, 2 horses, 6 hea
2 CONC d hogs and 1 servant man called Thomas who had 1 year and 5 months t
2 CONC o serve.  The oddest thing was that the inventory contains 20 chairs
2 CONC .  He must have lived in a large house.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In Chancery Court a suit was filed: On November 22, 1739 came Jacob W
2 CONC endell, John Wendell and Edmund Quincy, of the New England Merchants o
2 CONC f Boston, who exhibited their suit against John Harris and Sarah his w
2 CONC ife. Sarah had remarried immediately! (2-3)
2 CONT 
2 CONT The suit brings out the story.  Before 1736 Mindert Wimple made voyage
2 CONC s to and from Boston, representing the New England merchants.  On eac
2 CONC h voyage from Boston before 1736 he used to bring a cargo of goods, an
2 CONC d the effects which such cargo purchased here to carry with him to Bos
2 CONC ton and there settle his accounts on the completion of each voyage.  A
2 CONC fter he moved to Maryland he continued to receive goods and effects, a
2 CONC s a factor, for sale.  He also had good from other persons in Boston a
2 CONC nd in his books little distinction was made.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The complainants alleged that Mindert owned them an unpaid balance amo
2 CONC unting to 5,000 pounds New England currency.  The defendants were sur
2 CONC e this couldn't be true, but they had trouble understanding the accoun
2 CONC ts. A commission was appointed by the court to make a study and they r
2 CONC esolved that the amount due to Jacob Wendell and company was 199 pound
2 CONC s.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From the Chancery Suit there are lists of goods which were traded, an
2 CONC d they are worth perusing.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From Boston, sent to Cap'n Wimple for sale in Maryland were fabrics su
2 CONC ch as Dowles, fine and course, Cambrics, Wide Garlic, Blew Calico, Cot
2 CONC ton Rabalais, and Rushis Linen.
2 CONT 
2 CONT And there are Oznabrigs, one time quoted in yards, one time in pounds
2 CONC , and one in half bushels. (1-4)
2 CONT 
2 CONT There were bricks, axes, pots and kettles, jugs and chamber pots.  The
2 CONC re was rum, wine, molasses, cheese, salt, pepper, ginger, allspice an
2 CONC d sugar.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From Maryland to Boston went wheat, corn, walnut timber, and pork.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Even in that day court action was not speedy.  The deliberations of th
2 CONC e court started in 1739, and the final decision was not reached unti
2 CONC l February, 1745.
2 CONT 
2 CONT What about the children of Myndert and Sarah?  According to The Wempl
2 CONC e Genealogy there were three boys and a girl who died young.  (2-4) T
2 CONC he boys were named Johannes, Myndert and Andrew.  When their grandfath
2 CONC er Johannes Wemple wrote his will in 1748 he named the two sons of m
2 CONC y deceased son Myndert - John and Myndert. (3-4)  What happened to An
2 CONC drew? I do not know.  According to tradition the boys left Maryland an
2 CONC d moved to the Schenectady area in 1759.  It was Myndert, son of Mind
2 CONC ert Wimple of Dorchester County, deceased who sold the 250 Maryland a
2 CONC cres in 1767.

2 CONC tten by William Barent Wemple, compiler of the first part if this gene
2 CONC alogy from 1885-1913. The manuscript was never published.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was baptized November 9, 1701, in the Reformed Chruch, Schenectady
2 CONC ; married Sarah Mills. He was not living in 1748, when his father's wi
2 CONC ll was made.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In DEEDS F --- No. 6, page 145, Albany County Clerk's office, Albany
2 CONC , NY is a deed, dated August 8, 1727, in which Mindert Wimpel, of Bos
2 CONC ton, in the Province of Massachusetts Bay, mariner, deed to his broth
2 CONC er Reyer Wemp, land at Hoffman's Ferry, which his grandfather, Reye
2 CONC r Schermerhorn, had devised to Myndert, Reyer and Arientie, it bein
2 CONC g his share of one just sixth part of the eastermost half of the seav
2 CONC enth fflatts, lying and being on the north side of the Marques River
2 CONC , about seven miles above the said Town of Schonectady and also a six
2 CONC th part of a tract in New Jersey about twenty-seven miles about Amboy
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT His marriage was somewhat romantic. He was the captain of a vessel an
2 CONC d on one of the voyages from Scotland, he had as a passenger a young S
2 CONC cotch woman by the name of Sarah Mills. They fell in love and the pass
2 CONC age across the Atlantic in those days consuming several months, they h
2 CONC ad ample opportunity for courtship and ascertaining their true feeling
2 CONC s, so that when they landed they were prepared to become man and wife
2 CONC , which they at once did.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He finally settled with his family in Baltimore, MD, where he died, a
2 CONC s evidenced by a letter still in possession of Miss Sarah Wemple, of C
2 CONC harlton, NY, which was written in 1760 by his widow, who had at that t
2 CONC ime married a Harris, for her second husband, and is directed as follo
2 CONC ws: Mr John Wempell, son of Captain Myndert Wempell deceased in Maryl
2 CONC and, living in Schenectady.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert's children all moved North and settled close to the old home
2 CONC , in or near the Mohawk Valley.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On November 3, 1767 his son Myndert sells to Philip Walker, 250 acre
2 CONC s of land in Dorchester County, Maryland, on Great Choplank River; th
2 CONC e deed recites that Mindart Wimple (son of Mindart Wimple, late of Do
2 CONC rchester County, deceased) is the grantor. A copy of this deed is i
2 CONC n possession of the above mentioned Miss Sarah Wemple.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From his roving disposition, the common error has crept in that he wa
2 CONC s born in Holland, England, or some other foreign country and emigrate
2 CONC d to America. Many are the stories on this basis that have been relate
2 CONC d by some of his descendants, but they are all illusions and the abov
2 CONC e facts can be implicitly relied upon, for great care has been taken o
2 CONC n that account.

2 CONT 
2 CONT In the year 1689 he was an elder of the Dutch Reformed Church in Schen

2 CONC t mentions Myndert Wemp as among the killed. It also says that Myndert
2 CONC 's son Johannes, together with two Negroes, was captured and taken a
2 CONC s prisoners. This report is recorded in a book labeled MORTGAGE BOOK
2 CONC , 1753-1765, deposited  in the County Clerk's office in Albany, NY.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In Pearson's HISTORY OF THE SCHENECTADY PATENT the following concernin
2 CONC g Myndert is found:
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert inherited his father's village lot on Washington Street. Afte
2 CONC r his death it was divided into two parcels, - the northerly part; emb
2 CONC racing the lots of Mssrs. Thompson and Swortfiguer, falling to the dau
2 CONC ghter Susanna, wife of Johannes Symonse Veeder, and the southerly port
2 CONC ion having a front of 66 feet, to his son Johannes. In 1748 the latte
2 CONC r bequeathed his lot to two grandsons, Johannes (Wemple) and Myndert (
2 CONC Wemple); the latter became the sole owner in 1784, conveyed it to Will
2 CONC iam Scott, who in 1816 sold it to Nathaniel Burdick.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The northerly portion, comprising about 100 feet on the street, was di
2 CONC vided into two lessor lots of 50 feet each. and after their mother's d
2 CONC eath allotted to her two sons, Simon and Myndert Johannes Veeder, th
2 CONC e northerly half to the latter and the southerly half to the former. I
2 CONC n 1802, Myndert disposed of his lot to Samuel McWilliams; and in 1761
2 CONC , Symon conveyed his parcel to his son-in-law, Colonel John Glen, wh
2 CONC o in 1802 disposed of it to James Murdock; finally in 1803, Murdock so
2 CONC ld it to Mrs. Ann Constable. the ancient house standing on this lot an
2 CONC d occupied by George Swortfiguer was built by 'Quartermaster John Glen
2 CONC '.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Captain Johannes Sanders Glenn, who married Diewer Wendell, widow of M
2 CONC yndert Wemp, 'built the present Sanders mansion' in Scotia, in 1713 an
2 CONC d occupied the same until his death. His property was spared when Sche
2 CONC nectady was burned, by order of the Governor of Canada, for kindness s
2 CONC hown to French prisoners captured by the Mohawks. (Pearson's GENEALOGI

2 CONT 
2 CONT Excepts from the book MOHAWK FRONTIER: The Dutch Community of Schenect
2 CONC ady, New York, 1661-1710 by Thomas E. Burke, Jr.
2 CONT The author is addressing the divided community of Schenectady which wa
2 CONC s caused by Jacob Leisler leading a foment against the established gov
2 CONC ernment at New York:
2 CONT 
2 CONT . . . Equally divided were the family and political relations of th
2 CONC e Wemp brothers, Myndert and Barent. Both held offices under Jacob Lie
2 CONC sler, but their sister Antje had married Sander Glen, Jr., and their s
2 CONC tepfather was Sweer Teunissen van Velsen. Sons of a proprietor (Jan Ba
2 CONC rentsen Wemp), stepsons of one magistrate and related by marriage to a
2 CONC nother, the apprearance of the Wemp brothers in the Lieslerian camp i
2 CONC s puzzling. The explanation may lie in a prior (1683) dispute betwee
2 CONC n the brothers and their stepfather, van Velsen, concerning the distri
2 CONC bution of the inheritance of a deceased sister to the remaining Wemp o
2 CONC ffspring. In pressing their claim, the brothers were aided by Arount C
2 CONC ornelissen Viele, also a future Liesler adherent and, since the deat
2 CONC h of Jan Barentsen Wemp, the children's guardian.  . . .

2 CONT 
2 CONT Andries Wemple is termed in the history of the Wemples as being an ad
2 CONC herent of the King, in the Revolutionary War, and his property was con
2 CONC fiscated. The true history of him is as follows, he was a captain o
2 CONC f a troop, as they called it in those days, serving under Sir. Wm. Joh
2 CONC nson during the French and Indian Wars and until the breaking out of t
2 CONC he Revolutionary War, he was in continuous intercourse with Sir Wm. Jo
2 CONC hnson up to the point of the latter's death and afterwards with Sir Jo
2 CONC hn Johnson, the son, being an officer under both of these men. It ca
2 CONC n be readily seen why he followed the advice of Sir John Johnson and w
2 CONC ent with him and his party to Canada. Sir John told him that the outbr
2 CONC eak would be of short duration, and if he allowed himself to be mixe
2 CONC d up with it, his property would be confiscated by the King after th
2 CONC e Rebellion was suppressed, therefore, he, with most of the others wh
2 CONC o had served previously under the Johnsons, accompanied Sir John to Ca
2 CONC nada, first having sent his wife and children to Chrisopher Yates, he
2 CONC r brother-in-law, in Schenectady, who reared her entire family along w
2 CONC ith his own.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It was afterwards known to his family that upon arriving in Canada, h
2 CONC e and some others who went with him were much dissatisfied with thei
2 CONC r position and condition. Andries fought a duel with a British office
2 CONC r who cast reflections on the military courage of the Dutch whigs, inc
2 CONC luding General Philip Schuyler; shortly after this he, with a party o
2 CONC f others, attempted to return home but all are supposed to have been m
2 CONC assacred, for not one of them was ever heard from again. His wife die
2 CONC d broken-hearted.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was a large land owner and farmer. The homestead built by him, wit
2 CONC h its large elms which he set out, still stands being latterly know a
2 CONC s the James Lansing property about half way between Caughnawaga, on th
2 CONC e Mohawk and Johnstown. In olden times his property joined that of Si
2 CONC r Wm. Johnson's.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Prior to his removal to Canada he was, during the early part of the Re
2 CONC volutionary War, a captain in the Tryon County Militia under Colonel F
2 CONC red'k Fisher.  . . .

2 CONC d deputy chairman of the Board.  On July 26, 1779, he was again electe
2 CONC d a member of the Committee.  Colonel Wemple served with his regimen
2 CONC t on the various occasions when called out and was throughout the wa

2 CONT On the evening of the 2nd, Colonel Wemple wrote:
2 CONT Fort Plank Aug't 2d 1780. 7 O'Clock.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sir, Yesterday I detached two officers & thirty men of mine & Collo. C
2 CONC uyler's Regt. at the Willigas to wait the arrival of a Convoy of Boat
2 CONC s at that place & with the rest of our men we proceeded to Caughnawaga
2 CONC , where we arrived last Evening & at four this morning we began our ma
2 CONC rch & arrived at Caugnawaga opposite to Mr. Frey's about eleven, wit
2 CONC h an Intention to halt till they arrived with the Batteaza, which we
2 CONC , expect tomorrow about noon; immediately after we had cantoned as com
2 CONC pact as possible our men, we were alarmed with a heavy smoke between J
2 CONC ohn Abeails & Fort Planck about four miles distant from where we had t
2 CONC aken up our Quarters. This immediately was confirmed in the Eye of ou
2 CONC r whole Body & found the Enemy were bussy employed to burn & destroy
2 CONC . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Instantly I did order both Regiments to be formed & proceed against th
2 CONC e Enemy, who were at that time in their full Carear and tho our Number
2 CONC s were not equal, yet I can assure you I should be void of Justice i
2 CONC f I omitted mentioning their Prudence & cool behaviour without Distinc
2 CONC tion to all Rancks. An altho they had been in full march since early i
2 CONC n the morning they came up with such Vigor that the Enemy on our appro
2 CONC ach gave way & tho in sight we had no opportunity to give them Battl
2 CONC e they retired in the usual way. Our first Halt was at a Fort erecte
2 CONC d near Mr. Abeals House. The Inhabitants happy to see us. Directly aft
2 CONC er we had refreshed the men a few minutes, a Number of Volunteers wh
2 CONC o were least fateigued joined me with the Field officers of both Regim
2 CONC ents to see the Fate of this Fort, which we found as full of sorrowful
2 CONC l weomen & Children for their Husbands & Friends which were missing. T
2 CONC hey had, however, not made any Attempt to attack this Place. Such a Sc
2 CONC ean as we beheld since we left the River, passing dead Bodies of Me
2 CONC n & Children most cruelly murdered, is not possible to be described. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT I cannot ascertain at present the Number of poor Inhabitants killed an
2 CONC d missing but believe the Loss considerable as the People were all a
2 CONC t work in the Fields. I have endeavoured to obtain the Strength of th
2 CONC e Enemy; the accounts differ so much that I cannot asscertain their Nu
2 CONC mber, but from the many Places they sat on Fire, as in one Instant
2 CONC , & from parties out in a large Circuit of Country collecting & drivin
2 CONC g off Cattle, I am lead to believe that their Number is not small; ou
2 CONC r men are much fateigued. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT We propose to remain here this Night. In the Morning we shall procee
2 CONC d and act as Circumstances shall turn up & will inform you more partic
2 CONC ular. Some Persons pretend to say not less then one hundred dwelling H
2 CONC ouse are burnt; as so on as I can any ways collect the more particula
2 CONC r Facts, I shall not hesitate one Moment to leI you know. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Page 45 
2 CONT 
2 CONT As to General Rensselaer, I have no other accounts from him but that h
2 CONC e left Fort Herkimer on Monday last in the afternoon; he then by the b
2 CONC est accounts I have been able to collect, besides the Convoy of Capt
2 CONC . Hicks, with about 50 Head of Cattle & that his party consisted of ab
2 CONC out five hundred men. I have great reason to believe he has got safe i
2 CONC nto Fort Schuyler. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The enemy began setting fire & destroying some way near this place & p
2 CONC roceeded on to Canajohary; near the River burnt their Church, Abeals H
2 CONC ouse & its Neighbourhood & upwards, where they I am lead to believe go
2 CONC t sight of us & then retreated. You will please to observe that very g
2 CONC reat Devestation is committed south west of this place; excuse my Hast
2 CONC e & the Distressed Situation & Circumstances & hope will sufficientl
2 CONC y appologise. I am, D'r Genl. &c.

2 CONT A postwar statement by Thomas Sammons supports Colonel Wemple's accoun
2 CONC t: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT . . . the militia from Albany and Schenectady arrived before the enem
2 CONC y returned were yet burning buildings and destroying property about Fo
2 CONC rt Plain and marched into the river flatts formed their men with som
2 CONC e cannon they had for battle. Brant who commanded the enemy had no wis
2 CONC h to make an attack with his Indians on a superior formed on the rive
2 CONC r flatts with cannon very soon finished his business and returned bac
2 CONC k the way of Plank Lake in the afternoon the militia then marched som
2 CONC e distance in his rear that evening about three miles to Fort Plank st
2 CONC ayed in the fort that night. . . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The horror seen by these men as they approached Fort Plank is best tol
2 CONC d in the words of Private Robert H. Wendell: ... we found that the Ene
2 CONC my had just burned Canajoharie, Fort Plain, and the adjioning places a
2 CONC rrived at Fort Plain while the church was burning which was surrounde
2 CONC d by 7 or 8 Indians who fled at our approach. Found a girl Woman ther
2 CONC e lying on the ground who was scalped but yet living. She said she ha
2 CONC d been knocked down with a stone by one Hans Richter a Tory and that a
2 CONC nd Indian had scalped her, we took care of her a number of houses wer
2 CONC e then burning among them John Abeels. >From thence we proceeded to Fo
2 CONC rt Plank a short distance further several houses on the road were cons
2 CONC umed at one of the houses we found a boy scalped and his feet in the f
2 CONC ire we took him out but he was dead on arriving at Fort Plank we colle
2 CONC cted 9 children and an old woman who had all been murdered by the enem
2 CONC y and we buried them in one grave. . . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The forces under Colonel Wemple spent the night of August 2, 1780 with
2 CONC in Fort Plank. On the morning of the 3rd, ColoneI Wemple sent out a sc
2 CONC out to the Geisenburgh settlement . . . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Refer http://www.curtisit.com/curtis/wgu2.html: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Of the Schenectady militia who had marched under Colonel Wemple on th
2 CONC e first alarm some were almost immediately obliged to return for wan
2 CONC t of provisions. The remainder, however, hastened towards Johnstown an
2 CONC d, joined by troops from Fort Hunter under Colonel Harper and others u
2 CONC nder Colonel Volkert Vedder, swelling their force to about four hundre
2 CONC d and fifty men, determined to engage the enemy should Sir John, who h
2 CONC ad rendezvoused there, show any disposition to fight. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sir John, although his force, swelled by the addition of many Tories w
2 CONC ho had hastened to join him, now outnumbered the American troops abou
2 CONC t two to one, did not offer an engagement, but almost immediately with
2 CONC drew and, eluding the troops which Governor Clinton sent to intercep
2 CONC t him, made his way safely back to Canada. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The opportunity afforded by the dispirited condition of soldiers and s
2 CONC ettlers alike had early been seized upon by the British, who with no s
2 CONC mall success endeavored through their emissaries to stir up mutinies i
2 CONC n the ranks of the main army or induce those holding Tory sentiments t
2 CONC o take up arms in their behalf. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Many Tories had joined Sir John Johnson during his raid, and from tim
2 CONC e to time small bands from Albany and Tryon counties left to join th
2 CONC e enemy. That a large party so inclined were assembled at Beaverdam wa
2 CONC s reported to the Schenectady Committee on July 18. Colonel Vrooman a
2 CONC t Schoharie was at once apprised of the fact that he might order ou
2 CONC t a detachment in an endeavor to intercept them, while in Schenectad
2 CONC y a party was at once organized for the same purpose. Although the Sch
2 CONC enectady detachment after having marched all night arrived at the rend
2 CONC ezvous at daybreak, they were successful in securing but three of th
2 CONC e band who had secreted themselves in a barn, while the main body, hav
2 CONC ing undoubtedly been alarmed, succeeded in making their escape. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Late in July the enemy under Joseph Brant appeared in force before For
2 CONC t Schuyler. This movement was probably a feint, for while the troops w
2 CONC ere hastening to the defense of the post, leaving the lower valley wit
2 CONC hout adequate means of protection, Brant and his followers quietly wit
2 CONC hdrew and, advancing by way of the Unadilla and Susquehanna Rivers o
2 CONC n August 2, fell upon Canajoharie. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Albany and Schenectady militia, who had turned out with alacrity u
2 CONC nder orders previously given, had just gone into camp at Caughnawaga o
2 CONC pposite Mr. Frey's at about eleven o'clock on the morning of the secon
2 CONC d, when they were alarmed by the heavy smoke between John Abeails an

2 CONT CHAPTER X
2 CONT ABRAHAM WEMPLE, REVOLUTIONARY COLONEL 
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT If you were to ask a Schenectady historian to name the great Leaders o
2 CONC f that locality during the Revolution, he would unquestionably place a
2 CONC t the very top of his list, the name of Abraham Wemple, who commande
2 CONC d as colonel the regiment recrulted about Schenectady known as the 2n
2 CONC d Albany Co, Militia. With all his military duties, the colonel also a
2 CONC ctively served for two years on the Schenectady Committee of Correspon
2 CONC dence as a very valued member. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT But we of the Hellebergh lay claim to him a1so, because for over a thi
2 CONC rd of a century he owned a farm In our locality, purchased In 1765, t
2 CONC o which during the war he came whenever his duties permitted. This far
2 CONC m was described briefly in a previous article, and the large part of I
2 CONC t today Is beneath the Watervliet reservoir. Again we claim him becaus
2 CONC e he was for years a member and later an elder In the old Dutch congre
2 CONC gation of the Hellebergh, and also sponsor witness, or as it Is writte
2 CONC n In the Dutch, Getuy-gen, at several baptisms, and because he flnall
2 CONC y died here and was burled on the high ground, overlooking his belove
2 CONC d meadows. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT At the very outbreak of the war we find him taking outstanding leaders
2 CONC hip, The proceedings of Aug. 28, 1775, Schenectady Commlttee of Corres
2 CONC pondence, read as follows: Resolved to meet this Evening at 6 O'Cloc
2 CONC k and send for all the former Captains of militia and desire them to a
2 CONC ssemble all their respective Companys at the Dutch Church on Saterda
2 CONC y the 2nd Septr. In order to be formed Into Companys agreeable to a re
2 CONC solve of Congress to be then red to them. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT On the 6th Sept. 1775, a Sub Committee is appointed to attend the nex
2 CONC t general meeting of the Committee at Albany and lay a list of the Cap
2 CONC tains Appointed for the five Companys of minute men and militia befor
2 CONC e the Board and Apply for their Cummlsslons. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT On the 27th of Sept. 1775 Received a letter from the provincial Congr
2 CONC ess dated 9th of Aug. requesting that all the Districts who Could rais
2 CONC e five Companys of Militia should recomend such persons as they though
2 CONC t proper to be field officers. Resolved to Recommend the following per
2 CONC sons, vlz- Abraham Wemple to be Colonel. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT From the Minutes of Oct. 5 of the General Board at Albany, we find hi
2 CONC m recommended to the Provincial Congress, and In the Minutes of Nov. 2
2 CONC 2, 1775 he Is shown to have received & his commission from that body a
2 CONC s Colonel of Militia of New York State.

2 CONC inton Papers, etc. We shall try to select the most interestIng and imp

2 CONC l years from 1775 to 1784. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Before the Mohawk river enters Into the Hudson, it Is divided Into fou
2 CONC r mouths by three rocky islands one of whicb was called Van Schalck'
2 CONC s or Cohoes. It is generally supposed that Henry Hudson, who discovere
2 CONC d the river which bears his name, ascended as far as thls point in 160
2 CONC 9. The mouth of tbe Mohawk was a point of great interest toward the cl
2 CONC ose or tbe summer of 1777, when Van Schaick's Island was fortified b
2 CONC y Gen Schuyler, then in command of the northern division of the Contln
2 CONC ental Army. This was done as a special safeguard if Burgoyne, who wa
2 CONC s advanclng from the north broke through. It was at this Island that G
2 CONC en. Schuyler resigned his command on the 19th of August and turned th
2 CONC e commission over to Gen. Gates, who before many weeks was to reap th
2 CONC e benefit of Schuyler's plans and enjoy the laurels of Saratoga, one o
2 CONC f the decisive battles of all history. And so with this setting, the l
2 CONC etter which follows is especially Interesting, and we give it In part
2 CONC : 
2 CONT 
2 CONT (No. 743, Clinton Papers) V'n Schayks Island, Sept. 7, 1777. D'r Slr
2 CONC :  As there Is a Dispute between ColI Wample and myself Respecting ou
2 CONC r Ranck and Genl. Gates Declines Determining it without your Instructi
2 CONC on, I therefore am under the necessity of Calling upon your Excellenc
2 CONC y for what you Conceive to be my Just Right.  . . . I think It very ha
2 CONC rd to submit to be Commanded by a man that Is Intirely unacquainted wi
2 CONC th service and an utter stranger to the Rules and Regulations of a Cam
2 CONC p. When I Entered this Campaign I LittIe Expected that any Coll, of Ma
2 CONC litia of this State that was never In actual service would assume Comm
2 CONC and of us that Had bin. Morris Graham (Col) His Excellency George Cli
2 CONC nton. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT This proves that Col. Wemple was connected with the general plan ot th
2 CONC e battle of Saratoga and probably actually In It. In fact, shortly aft
2 CONC erward Gov. Clinton writes Gen. Gates that he has ordered all reglment
2 CONC s of the state except two, Tryon County and the Schoharry Regiment, t
2 CONC o join his army, and so our own Helleberg militia must have been ther
2 CONC e as well as those of Col. Wemple. After the battle under date of Oct
2 CONC . 9th, the Albany Co. Militia Is ordered down from Saratoga. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT On May 30 of the next year, 1778, is found a letter in which Col. Wemp
2 CONC le is urged to push on with the militia and ammunition after the attac
2 CONC k on Cobleskill. That he did this is shown by the letter dated Schohar
2 CONC ie, 2nd June, 1778, reporting to Gen. Ten Broeck at Albany: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sir--This morning I had Sent a Party to CobusKill of about 150 men wi
2 CONC th Lieut. CoIl Gates at the head of them: After they had been gone som
2 CONC e time I received information of a large Party coming down to destro
2 CONC y the Settlement of Breakabeen, upon which I ordered them to return th
2 CONC eir course to the upper Settlement of Schoharie where I am now Just Go
2 CONC ing to reinforce them;  if I am lucky Enough to meet them them I hop
2 CONC e to give them a Trimming. The ammunition is not yet arrived for whic
2 CONC h we are in great want. I hope you will send some provisions of the me
2 CONC at kind, and send me some writing paper as I have not so much as to ma
2 CONC ke a return thereon, and here is none to be had. Ab'm Wemple 
2 CONT 
2 CONT N.B. Sealing wax or wafers are much wanting. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He must have scraped up enough paper In Schoharie for he makes his ret
2 CONC urn on the same date showing he had 1 Colonel (himself), 1 Lt. Col.
2 CONC , 1 Major, 5 captains, 9 Lieut., 3 Enslgns and 119 Rank and File. In a
2 CONC ll 139 men at Schoharie. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Part of the letter he wrote June 6th reporting on the Massacre at Cob
2 CONC usKill and of the Destitution of Survivors, we gave In an earlier art
2 CONC icle which referred to our own Captain Groot, but another note writte
2 CONC n on the same day Is as follows: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Schoharry, 6th June, 1778. D'r Slr: I forgot to mention In mIne of t
2 CONC his date that the people of CobusKill whose houses and Effects are bur
2 CONC nt only came off with what they had upon their Backs, have applyd to m
2 CONC e for provision. I should be glad to know wether they can draw out o
2 CONC f the public Stores or no. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Militia complain much that they cant live upon 1 lb. of Bread an
2 CONC d 1 Ib. of Beef. I was with the Commissary - he tells me it is Genera
2 CONC l Orders not to Issue more for a Ration. I should be glad If you wil
2 CONC l mention It to the General and let me know. I am Dr Sir, Your Ob't H
2 CONC um Serv'l. Ab'm Wemple. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT In September of 1778 we read of his being up the Mohawk with an expedl
2 CONC tion; in November he Is present after the massacre at Cherry Valley. I
2 CONC n May, 1780 he Is at Johnstown when Johnson and Brandt made their raid
2 CONC . He arrives shortly after his Captain Vrooman got to the fort with th
2 CONC e 30 men. After Johnson had made the escape we previously described, G
2 CONC en. Van Schaick reports to Gov. Clinton: I have given him (Col. Wempl
2 CONC e) command with orders to remain In the present Situation until he rec
2 CONC eives your further orders. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT We should expect him to be In the thickest of the activities of 1780
2 CONC , and so the following letter proves he has been keeping his eyes on t
2 CONC he Tory activities of Helleberg. Wrltlng to Col. Peter Vroman at Schoh
2 CONC arie, he says: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Schenectady, July 18. 1780. Sir - we have just now Rec'd Informatio
2 CONC n and from good authority that a party of Tories from the Hellebergh
2 CONC , Niskitha and Beaverdam, to the amount of a near hundred, Is Set to g
2 CONC o and join the Enemy at Niagara, and that their is an Express along wi
2 CONC th them who is lately come from New York. They were to meet last Nigh
2 CONC t at Captain Palls at the Beaverdam and to proceed from thence to Unan
2 CONC dilla; we will Emedlately order a party of men from here to go in purs
2 CONC ute of them but belng aprehenslve that they may have got too much th
2 CONC e Start on us we would Request that on Recipt of this you will order o
2 CONC ut a party to Indeavor to intersept them on theIr Rout.

2 CONT 
2 CONT In August of 1780, Joseph Brant, the great Indian ally of the BrItIsh
2 CONC , led another attack on the Mohawk valley. Before troops could reach t
2 CONC he scene in defense, many Inhabitants of the locality about Canajoharl
2 CONC e had been slaughtered, prisoners taken, and crops and buildIngs burne
2 CONC d. Colonel Wemple, advancIng from below with the Schenectady and Alban
2 CONC y Militia, proceed.ed to the scene of the conflagration, and the follo
2 CONC wIng letter Is hIs report to his superIor offlcer: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Fort Plank (PlaIn),  Aug. 2nd, 1780, 7 o'clock. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Slr:- Yesterday I detached two officers and thirty men of mine to Co
2 CONC llo. Cuyler's Regt. at the WiIIigas to walt the arrival of a Convoy o
2 CONC f Boats at that place, and with the rest of our men we proceeded to Ca
2 CONC ughnawaga (Fonda), where we arrived last Evening, and at four this mor
2 CONC ning we began our march and arrived at Caughnawaga opposite to Mr. Fre
2 CONC y's about eleven, with an Intention to halt till they arrlved wIth th
2 CONC e Batteaux which we expect tomorrow about noon. Immediately after we h
2 CONC ad cantoned as compact as possible our men, we were alarmed with a hea
2 CONC vy smoke between John Abeal's and Fort Planck about four miles distan
2 CONC t from where we had taken up our quarters. This immediately was confir
2 CONC med In the Eye of our whole Body and found the Enemy were bussy employ
2 CONC ed to burn and destroy. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Instantly I did order both Regiments to be formed and proceed agains
2 CONC t the Enemy, who were at that time In their full Carear, and tho our N
2 CONC umbers were not equal, yet I can assure you I should be void of Justic
2 CONC e If I omitted mentioning their Prudence and cool behavior without Dis
2 CONC tinction to all Rancks. An although they had been In full march sinc
2 CONC e early In the morning they came up with such Vigor that the Enemy o
2 CONC n our approach gave way, and tho In sight we had no opportunity to giv
2 CONC e them Battle they retired In the usual way. Our first Halt was at a F
2 CONC ort erected near Mr. Abeal's House. The Inhabitants happy to see us. D
2 CONC irectly after we had refreshed the men a few minutes, a Number of Volu
2 CONC nteers who were least fateigued joined me with the Field Officers of b
2 CONC oth Regiments to see the Fate of this Fort, which we found as full o
2 CONC f sorrowfull weomen and Children for their Husbands and Friends whic
2 CONC h were missing. They had, however, not made any Attempt to attack thi
2 CONC s Place. Such a Scean as we beheld since we left the River, passing de
2 CONC ad Bodies of Men and Children most cruelly murdered, Is not possible t
2 CONC o be described. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT I cannot ascertain at present the Number of poor Inhabitants killed a
2 CONC nd missing, but believe the Loss considerable as the People were all a
2 CONC t work In the Fields. I have endeavoured to obtain the Strength of th
2 CONC e Enemy; the accounts differ so mucb that I cannot ascertain their Num
2 CONC ber, but from the many Places they set on Fire, as In one Instant, an
2 CONC d from parties out In a large Circuit or Country collecting and drivIn
2 CONC g off Cattle, I am lead to believe that their Number is not small. Ou
2 CONC r men are much fateigued. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT We propose to remain here this Night. In the Morning we shall procee
2 CONC d and act as Circumstances shall turn up and will inform you more part
2 CONC icular. Some persons pretend to say not less than one hundred dwellin
2 CONC g House are burnt. As soon as I can any ways collect the more particul
2 CONC ar Facts I shall not hesitate one Moment to let you know. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT As to General Rensselaer, I have no other accounts from him but tha
2 CONC t he left Fort Herkimer on Monday last in the afternoon; he then by th
2 CONC e best accounts I have been able to collect, besides the Convoy of Cap
2 CONC t. Hicks with about 60 Head of Cattle, and that his party consisted o
2 CONC f aboul five hundred men. I have great reason to believe he has got sa
2 CONC fe into Fort Schuyler. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Enemy began setting Fire and destroying some way near this plac
2 CONC e and proceeded on to Canajohary; near the River burnt their Church, A
2 CONC beal's House, and its Neighborhood and upwards, where they I am lead t
2 CONC o believe got sight of us and then retreated. You will please to obser
2 CONC ve that very great Devastation is committed south west of this place
2 CONC ; excuse my Haste and the Distressed Situation and Circumstances, an
2 CONC d hope will sufficiently appologise. I am, D'r Genl., etc. Ab'm Wemple
2 CONC . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT To General Ten Broeck. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The letter has been given In full because one cannot read It without g
2 CONC etting a fair idea of the character of the man and the problems he ha
2 CONC d to face. Often times an Insight is gained from personal corresponden
2 CONC ce that can be secured in no other way; so especially do we grasp suc
2 CONC h rare documents of the period when very little else is left by whic
2 CONC h we may judge our old Colonel. I believe this letter satisfactorily a
2 CONC nswers the criticism of the Colonel's action made by Stone in his Lif
2 CONC e of Brant, when he says: Indeed, it is intimated by good authority t
2 CONC hat although the Colonel's forces were superior to those of Brant, th
2 CONC e former was nevertheless by no means anxious to arrive in the immedIa
2 CONC te vicinity of the IndIans too soon. And LossIng has contInued the Id
2 CONC ea, for he quotes Stone frequently In his Field Book of the Revolution
2 CONC , Lossing says: The Colonel seemed to be one of those men who deeme
2 CONC d prudence the better part of valor, and was oppossed to forced marche
2 CONC s, particularly when in pursuit of such fierce enemIes as were just th
2 CONC en attracting his attention He managed to reach Fort PlaIn in tIme t
2 CONC o see the smouldering embers of the conflagratIon and to rest securel
2 CONC y wIthin Its ramparts that nIght. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT These opinions are, no doubt, the result of conversatIons whiIch Stone
2 CONC . the author, had with certain residents of the sectiIon who were stil
2 CONC l living In 1838 when his work was published. They felt, perhaps, righ
2 CONC tfully that their own militia had been ordered away to open up communi
2 CONC cation with Fort Schuyler (Rome) and that they had been left defensele
2 CONC ss, an easy prey to the Great Captain of the Six Nations, They too
2 CONC k out their spite on the Colonel who had nothlng to do wIth the orders
2 CONC , and who we believe dId everythIng In his power under the circumstanc
2 CONC es. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT I am lead to believe their number is not small; our men are much fate
2 CONC lgued, writes Colonel Wemple. What generalship would he have dlsplaye
2 CONC d In advancing on an unknown force led by the greatest of Indian capta
2 CONC ins, with an army of men exhausted from a day's march through the wild
2 CONC erness? We feel that once and for all this Insinuation of cowardlce ag
2 CONC ainst the fair name of our old hero should be burled. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Finally the war was over and the difficult years of early independenc
2 CONC e had to be met. Among the problems were satisfactory treaties with th
2 CONC e Indian tribes of the Six Nations. As the Commissioners expressed i
2 CONC t in CouncIl: Brethern at the conclusion of the late War with Great B
2 CONC ritain which terminated in a glorious Peace, the Legislature of this S
2 CONC tate thought It right to reestablish the antlent harmony and friendshi
2 CONC p which had so long subsisted between thIs State and the Six Nations r
2 CONC esiding within Its limits. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The meeting of the Commissioners for Indian Affairs was held at Fort S
2 CONC chuyler Aug. 31, 1784. Col. Wemple was highly honored by being selecte
2 CONC d as one of a committee sent to invite the Oneida Nation to attend. Th
2 CONC en he was present, as shown by the record, at most of the sesslons o
2 CONC f this very Important council. The records of this council may be foun
2 CONC d in full In Document No. 5490 of the Clinton Papers. Governor Clinton
2 CONC 's own concluding speech to the Oneidas and Tuscaroras is worthy of re
2 CONC peatlng:
2 CONT Brothers, we now conclude with fullest confidence that our chain of f
2 CONC riendship will not contract any rust, but that it will always remain s
2 CONC o bright throughout every part of the State that our posterity may se
2 CONC e their faces In it and that it will be their object, as it has been o
2 CONC urs, to promote each other's happiness, and as a pledge thereof we no
2 CONC w give you this belt. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT To have merited appointment to this important council, Is evldence o
2 CONC f the high esteem In which Col. Wemple was held. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT This is the last public activity of the Colonel we find recorded. It I
2 CONC s assumed that at the close of the war he devoted the remaining year
2 CONC s of his life to his farm and the Dutch Church of the Helleberg. Direc
2 CONC t reference will be made in future articles to the service of the Colo
2 CONC nel as elder in the consistory. The exact date of his birth Is unknown
2 CONC , but is placed about 1728. He died in 1799 and is buried on the hig
2 CONC h knoll back of his house.  . . . Climb the hill that rose behind th
2 CONC e great house and part the grass in search of the brown grave stones t
2 CONC hat once marked the last resting place of this great leader, but not e
2 CONC ven a trace will you find. His farm, his home, his grave have gone th
2 CONC e way of the world, but the records of Col. Wemple's achievements rema
2 CONC in, and today we ar honored that such a man has lived.

2 CONT #255 Main Street, Poughkeepsie, March 21, 1891.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Randall N. Saunders,
2 CONT 
2 CONT Dear Sir:
2 CONT 
2 CONT Your letter to my father was received this morning and I have promise
2 CONC d him to answer it. I do not care to have you quote me or mention me
2 CONC , but am ready to give you all the facts as far as we know them, so th
2 CONC at you can write an article of your own upon the subject.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The old deeds of the property I gave to Mr. Nichols last fall but I t
2 CONC hink I can remember sufficiently to set you right. I saw last week a s
2 CONC tatement in reference to the finding of a marked brick which would ind
2 CONC icate that the house was more than 100 years old. Such is not the fac
2 CONC t as I am thoroughly satisfied from the following. These old deeds whi
2 CONC ch, as I recollect, were dated some time in 1790, I think about 1798
2 CONC . One by the grandfather of John Miller who resided just west of thi
2 CONC s place, and the other by a brother of his who resided where Mr. Van R
2 CONC ensselaer now resides.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The two parcels of irregular shape made up the lot as it was owned b
2 CONC y my father, containing about one acre, and subsequently he bought ano
2 CONC ther quarter of an acre lying just west of the place proper from Mr. J
2 CONC ohn Miller. The deeds were given to Dr. Walter Vrooman Wemple, commonl
2 CONC y known as Dr. Vrooman, who built the house and barn now on the premis
2 CONC es. The house originally had a short roof sloping toward the street, a
2 CONC nd another longer one sloping back; the back part of the house being o
2 CONC nly about one story high. This had been changed before my father bough
2 CONC t the property so as to be two stories in height in the back, but stil
2 CONC l in roofs sloped as before, In 1847 my father took off the whole of t
2 CONC he roof and put on a new one in its present shape. The title to the pr
2 CONC operty passed from Dr. Wemple to his widow, whether by deed or wil
2 CONC l I do not know. She afterwards married a Mr. Thomas and was living, w
2 CONC hen I was a little boy, with a Mrs. Russell, her sister, who resided w
2 CONC here Peter Best afterwards resided. When Mrs. Thomas died, which mus
2 CONC t have been about 1845, the property passed, either by will or heirshi
2 CONC p, to her sister Mrs. Russell, and Mrs. Russell deeded it to my father
2 CONC . Thus, you will see that the title has never passed through many hand
2 CONC s.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The barn, when we went there in 1847, had in it in the east end fou
2 CONC r finished rooms. Two on the main floor and two above with stairways
2 CONC , and still above that and reaching over the four rooms and the stairw
2 CONC ay was a large room finished for pigeons and showed that there must ha
2 CONC ve been an immense stock of pigeons kept there. The west end of the ro
2 CONC om had been somewhat remodeled before we went there, but my father cha
2 CONC nged it so as to have his slaughter-house in that end and made a stabl
2 CONC e and hay-mow of the east end, leaving one of the four rooms as a gran
2 CONC ary, which, as I understand it, is still there. The old cellar under t
2 CONC he barn of which you speak, was to me as a little boy, a great curiosi
2 CONC ty.
2 CONT 
2 CONT My father took up the whole of the old floors and removed an immens
2 CONC e accumulation of barn refuse, cleaning out the old cellar and the arc
2 CONC hed addition thereto. of which you speak. At that time the old doors s
2 CONC eparating the arched part from the main cellar, were still in part the
2 CONC re. We understood this arched part, which you think must have been a t
2 CONC omb, to have been a wine cellar.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Dr. Wemple was a man of means, had a number of slaves, and as my fath
2 CONC er and understand it, his slaves slept in these rooms in the barn and
2 CONC , as we always supposed, used this large cellar as a vegetable cella
2 CONC r and the small one as a wine vault.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Jeremiah Race who gave my father and myself a good deal on inform
2 CONC ation about this Dr. Vrooman, as he was called, said that he was a ma
2 CONC n of luxurious tastes and who lived in much style, having a very larg
2 CONC e practice and being very independent.
2 CONT

1 NOTE The following is from an unpublished manuscript, written by William Ba
2 CONC rent Wemple II,  compiler of the first part if this genealogy from 188
2 CONC 5-1913, sent to the compiler on September 28, 2000 by Michael Lee Wemp
2 CONC le of Bay City, MI.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was born in Canajoharie, NY, February 12, 1814; married, in Schenec
2 CONC tady, Mary Sabine Avery, January 15, 1835; died in Wampsville, NY, Aug
2 CONC ust 13m 1896; his wife resides with her son Lyman A. (Wemple) in Wamps
2 CONC ville, NY. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT In response to a request made by the compiler for a personal sketch o
2 CONC f his life, he furnished the one which follows, on June 13, 1894, ever
2 CONC y word of which was written by himself in a beautiful, strong hand wri
2 CONC ting, which would have done great credit to a person one half his age
2 CONC . He was a charming correspondent and the compiler had many delightfu
2 CONC l letters from him. He had always taken a deep interest in his famil
2 CONC y history, therefore, on this account and his age he was most valuabl
2 CONC e in clearing up many vague points regarding his branch. The compile
2 CONC r was indeed fortunate and favored in knowing him through corresponden
2 CONC ce and regrets exceedingly the obstacles that prevented making a perso
2 CONC nal acquaintance.
2 CONT 
2 CONT As regards a history of myself, I have to say that perhaps forty year
2 CONC s ago I commenced to write a history of myself, beginning with my birt
2 CONC h and following along the lines of childhood and youth to early manhoo
2 CONC d, and the events or incidents occurring not omitting my marriage to M
2 CONC ary S. Avery, my present wife, January 15, 1835. The record alluded t
2 CONC o covers several years after my marriage but at present, I cannot la
2 CONC y my hand upon the document but may in a few day. That history is a re
2 CONC minder to me of events in early boyhood and youth while with my widowe
2 CONC d mother, to whom I was lovingly attached and sought to make her lif
2 CONC e joyous by rendering such aid in our as was in my power. These effort
2 CONC s to aid my mother are now a perpetual benison to me and therefore bri
2 CONC ght spots in my life. When my mother came to reside with me in 1845 o
2 CONC r a little before, she found a home indeed till she died in 1847. He
2 CONC r memory is cherished. The mother of my wife - a widow also - became a
2 CONC n inmate of my house also and lived with us till death and then her re
2 CONC mains were borne to Wampsville and laid by the side of her husband, Jo
2 CONC hn Avery. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Now, it occurs to me that if I can furnish you a history dating fro
2 CONC m my marriage it will give you something of an idea of my manner of li
2 CONC fe for the past 60 years. My marriage opened or suggested a phase of l
2 CONC ife which has afforded my much delight. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT However, the beginning of my wedded life was being employed in a stor
2 CONC e, groceries, etc., not omitting intoxicating liquors, but by an expre
2 CONC ss agreement with my employers, I had nothing to do with waiting on cu
2 CONC stomers calling for liquor, such callers were referred to a son of on
2 CONC e of the proprietors. I have no doubt it seemed rather odd to imbiber
2 CONC s of the intoxicant that a clerk standing in front of the bottles, dec
2 CONC lined to pass the same to them. but such was the case. My abhorrence o
2 CONC f the traffic was deep-seated and I will here say that I have not los
2 CONC t my detestation of the cause of the most of the distress in the world
2 CONC . Further on I will tell you of my efforts to influence humanity to de
2 CONC sist from the use of intoxicants. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Well, my clerkship became so distasteful that I left the store altoge
2 CONC ther. I needed the pittance of a salary of $250.00 a year with which t
2 CONC o support my wife. I was out of employment two months. In the middle o
2 CONC f September, 1835, an old friend and a resident with my mother and sel
2 CONC f in the same building, a few years previous but then a resident of Tr
2 CONC oy and in charge of shipping for a large transportation company, wrot
2 CONC e to me to come to Troy. I went at once and found he had a place for m
2 CONC e. I at once entered upon the particular duties - that of tallyman an
2 CONC d any other service that tended to aid my employers. I remained at Tro
2 CONC y until navigation closed, receiving of my services $50.00 per month
2 CONC , a sum my employers did not demur to. Before I left Troy to return t
2 CONC o Schenectady and my wife, the latter was delivered of a girl baby. M
2 CONC y employers, G. P. Griffith & Company, engaged me for the next season
2 CONC , 1836, at a compensation of $400.00; such salaries at that time wer
2 CONC e considered quite large. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT I will go back a few years to 1832, which was the year, and the distr
2 CONC ess it occasioned. In October of that year I was converted - for whic
2 CONC h I have ever expressed gratitude to my Redeemer - and united with th
2 CONC e Baptist church, having been baptized in the Mohawk river by the Reve
2 CONC rand A. D. Gillette, our pastor. This change in life opened to me ne
2 CONC w views and new experiences. These views and experiences borne by me t
2 CONC o Troy, induced me to seek affiliation and association with the Firs
2 CONC t Baptist Church in Troy, then under the pastorate of the Reverand Ben
2 CONC jamin M. Hill, a noble Christian and man. He was a councillor indeed
2 CONC , to who I attached myself as with hooks of steel during my two month
2 CONC s stay in Troy. After navigation of 1835 closed I returned to Schenect
2 CONC ady and engaged in such pursuits as availed to help my wife, baby an
2 CONC d myself through the winter. I also devoted the time usually occupie
2 CONC d by the church, in service thereof. A little before the opening of na
2 CONC vigation in 1836, I went to Troy to fill the position for which I wa
2 CONC s employed. I took my wife and baby with me and went to board with Mr
2 CONC . Leonard Crocker and family, the superintendent of the company by who
2 CONC m I was employed. During 1836 I endeavored to make myself useful to th
2 CONC e company, and leisure time, when the opportunities favored, devoted t
2 CONC o church service. The winter of 1835 & 6 was of service to Mr. Crocker
2 CONC , he becoming a converted man and a decided Christian. Sunday previou
2 CONC s to the opening of navigation in 1836 was about as much a working da
2 CONC y on the docks as other days. The conversion of Mr. Crocker had the go
2 CONC od effect of stopping Sunday work. Instead of work, a bethel meeting w
2 CONC as held under our dock sheds where seats were provided for the dock fo
2 CONC rces and others. These services were well attended and continued throu
2 CONC gh the season, when the weather permitted and had the effect to caus
2 CONC e a discontinuance of Sunday work during the years of my employment o
2 CONC n the docks, which ended with 1847. At the close of 1847 I declined t
2 CONC o re-engage to my employers and also decided the offer of $1000.00 fo
2 CONC r the season of 1847 by a neighboring transportation company. At the c
2 CONC lose of 1847 business life presented a new phase.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Crocker our superintendent informed Messrs. G. P. Griffith & Comp
2 CONC any of his purpose to discontinue service with them and move to Buffal
2 CONC o. Of this change I was not made aware until after navigation closed
2 CONC . At this time Mr. Crocker informed me of his purpose and, I think, i
2 CONC t was Mr. Crocker (who) informed me that Messrs. G. P. Griffith & Comp
2 CONC any wished me to fill Mr. Crocker's place and also to continue in th
2 CONC e position of tallyman. I hesitated to undertake the responsibility o
2 CONC f the two positions, but insistence to comply was enforced by the offe
2 CONC r of $800.00 for the season.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Well, I consented to assume the two positions. I returned to Schenect
2 CONC ady to remain thro' the winter of 1836 and in the spring of 1837 retur
2 CONC ned to Troy, taking wife and little daughter with me and began house k
2 CONC eeping  in a very moderate way but happy in the little humble home bu
2 CONC t was made desolate ere the year ended by the death of the little daug
2 CONC hter Selinda at the age of 2 years and 4 months. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT As we had become residents of Troy, it accorded with my mind to ident
2 CONC ify myself with interests congenial to my Christian sentiments. This c
2 CONC ondition of mind brought me to the church and Sunday-school and afford
2 CONC ed me great delight. My position in the company opened up to me new so
2 CONC ures of pleasure; business naturally led me to business houses and fri
2 CONC endships were formed with businessmen of high standing. These friendsh
2 CONC ips were my delight in succeeding years. I interested myself in organi
2 CONC zations intended for the betterment of men. The Firemenn's Division o
2 CONC f the Sons of Temperance was a favorite organization. The office of se
2 CONC cretary afforded me pleasure and not infrequently my lot was to offici
2 CONC ate on the introduction of new members. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT My close friendship with the church and its pastor, Mr. Hill, led m
2 CONC e to ask for a letter of dismission from the church in Schenectady t
2 CONC o unite with the church in Troy, which was done in the winter of 183
2 CONC 7 & 8. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Now I had become a resident of Troy. I gave time to promote her inter
2 CONC ests as abilities and age availed. In 1843 I was elected Alderman of t
2 CONC he 5th ward, having been elected by Democrats and Republicans dissatis
2 CONC fied with the nominations of the candidates of their respective partie
2 CONC s. Of the Board of Alderman in that year, I believe but two yet live
2 CONC , viz., Russell Sage of New York, and the writer. A phase of life at t
2 CONC hat distance from the present, fifty-one years, still clings to me - i
2 CONC t was, and is, decided opposition to the principle of licence to pursu
2 CONC e a business KNOWN to be detrimental to the mental, physical and spiri
2 CONC tual well-being of humanity. At the time of my Aldermanship, the Boar
2 CONC d alone was the authority to grant licenses. Whenever an application w
2 CONC as presented and motion to grant was called, I did not fail of a negat
2 CONC ive, which gave offence, but I could not conscientiously vote for a wr
2 CONC ong. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT This same year, 1843, fifty members of the First Baptist Church obtai
2 CONC ned letters of dismission for the purpose of forming a new Baptist Chu
2 CONC rch which latter service was accomplished on the 23rd of June of tha
2 CONC t year, 1843. At the constitution of the church, I was elected clerk a
2 CONC nd continued in the office till December 1847.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A little history, at the latter date, is evidence of an over-ruling P
2 CONC rovidence. At the close of navigation of 1847, my then employers, Mess
2 CONC rs Ide, Coit & Company, they having become the successors of G. P. Gri
2 CONC ffith & Company, made application to me to continue in their employ
2 CONC ; I was also sought by James H. Hoske to enter his employ but to neith
2 CONC er gave assent, why, I did not know, but one evening just at the clos
2 CONC e of a prayer meeting, a brother informed me that a person in vestibul
2 CONC e wished to see me. I answered the call and was informed the Mr. L. R
2 CONC . Sargent, Superintendent of the Schenectady & Troy R.R., wished to se
2 CONC e me. I went with the messenger to the Troy House, where I met Mr. S
2 CONC . and was asked by him how I would like to go to Schenectady? I aske
2 CONC d for the cause. He replied, to take charge of the road at that place
2 CONC . I said, I will go and ready at once. We went to the Bank of Troy t
2 CONC o see John Paine, the president of the road, the preliminaries were se
2 CONC ttled and I at once prepared to leave Troy for Schenectady. Here, I re
2 CONC cognize Providence. The Baptist Chruch in Schenectady occupied a war
2 CONC m spot in my heart and this unexpected opening is again associate wit
2 CONC h that body made me very happy indeed for I was well aware of the pove
2 CONC rty of that body and thought the opportunity for rendering such aid a
2 CONC s was in my power would give me joy. My separation from the church for
2 CONC med in 1843 was regretted by the church and efforts were instituted t
2 CONC o change my mind, but I said to the church, I have consented to go an
2 CONC d I cannot withhold, although a tempting offer was made in a lucrativ
2 CONC e business. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT I went to Schenectady and at the first meeting - a meeting of praye
2 CONC r - I said to the meeting, Now know I that the Lord has blessed me fo
2 CONC r your sakes. (Gen. 3 chap., part of 23rd verse). I had no recollecti
2 CONC on of ever having read the sentence but I uttered it, nevertheless. No
2 CONC w that I had returned to the city of my early residence and the churc
2 CONC h of my choice, I gave heed, as I was able, to her needs and care. On
2 CONC e of the greatest of her needs was a house of worship. In her earlie
2 CONC r years she lost her house from poverty. In 1851 a vacant lot, part o
2 CONC f an estate, located on Union Street, a street in the center of the ci
2 CONC ty leading to Union College, was to be sold at auction. I attended an
2 CONC d on my personal responsibility, bid for it. At the time of biddin
2 CONC g I was accosted by Judge Platt Potter to know my purpose in bidding
2 CONC . I said to the Judge, I am bidding in the interest of the church. H
2 CONC e said, I bid no more. The lot with other real state was bought fo
2 CONC r $700.00. I have ever entertained great respect for his readiness t
2 CONC o give way for a noble purpose. At once we set about preparation for b
2 CONC uilding a house of worship. This, of course, taxed our energies and ou
2 CONC r pockets, as it did also the pockets of our friends. When the trenche
2 CONC s were dug for the foundation and the masons were ready to lay the fou
2 CONC ndation (by previous arrangement with the boss-mason) I went for a col
2 CONC ored sister, the contribution of the first dollar. I have her return w
2 CONC ith me to the yard, having informed her of my purpose, the boss led he
2 CONC r way down into the trench on there with strong arms and weeping eyes
2 CONC , Mrs. Wendell laid the first stone, a corner stone indeed, in the fou
2 CONC ndation. But three persons, other than the Masons, witnessed the cerem
2 CONC ony. In 1852 the basement of the house (of worship) was occupied by th
2 CONC e church with great joy. Now we had a domicile for ourselves and all o
2 CONC thers desirous to mingle with us.
2 CONT 
2 CONT My stay in Schenectady continued till the late Autumn of 1853 when th
2 CONC e consolidation of the roads forming the New York Central R.R. was acc
2 CONC omplished. This latter act closed my office and I returned to Troy t
2 CONC o take charge of the freight business. In 1855 I was called to Alban
2 CONC y and informed that my services were desired to take charge of the fre
2 CONC ight business. I consented, the president, Erastus Corning and genera
2 CONC l Superintendent Chauncey Vibberd fixing my salary at $1200,00. I arra
2 CONC nged to go at once on my return home (Troy). I bethought myself of a m
2 CONC atter not Broached on my visit at first, and at once I wrote  Genera
2 CONC l Superintendent a note saying, if Sunday work was expected of me, I m
2 CONC ust decline the position. An answer was speedily returned, favoring m
2 CONC e freedom from Sunday services of the ordinary kind. This decision le
2 CONC d to freedom of our men for Sunday, except watchmen.
2 CONT 
2 CONT During my connection with the freight department I was not interfere
2 CONC d with by any in authority, but at once, there was an Assistant Superi
2 CONC ntendent coming to me and ordering a force of men for the following Su
2 CONC nday to unload cars. I informed the Assistant Superintendent that I sh
2 CONC ould not order men to work on the morrow. He stamped and said, Well
2 CONC , we will see about it. Whether he did or not see about it, I never h
2 CONC eard any complaint of my decision. Mr. Corning was a good friend; I ne
2 CONC ver appealed for an increase of salary, He and his subordinated had ab
2 CONC undant knowledge of the necessities of the service and the first incre
2 CONC ase was $300.00; total 1500.00; the next, an additional $500.00, tota
2 CONC l $2000.00 per annum. In 1866 &7 I left the road and came to Wampsvill
2 CONC e, purchased a dwelling and took up our residence. The first or secon
2 CONC d year of living in Wampsville,  I was informed by letter from Charle
2 CONC s B. Redfield of his wish to have me go to New York City and take char
2 CONC ge of his barge-tow at a salary of $2500.00. I did not wish to rejec
2 CONC t the offer. I went the following spring. After a stay in New York Cit
2 CONC y till the first of July, I was invited by Dean Richmond, then the pre
2 CONC sident of New York Central R. R., to visit him at the St. Nicholas
2 CONC . I went and saw Mr. Richmond, and was informed by him of his wish t
2 CONC o have my return to Albany and resume the care of the freight busines
2 CONC s of a salary of $2500.00. I informed Mr. Richmond of my relationshi
2 CONC p to Mr. Redfield. He says, We will fix that. On this condition I co
2 CONC nsented to go and did go, displacing the two men appointed after I lef
2 CONC t a year or two previous. I had from the first objected to an assistan
2 CONC t; one was enough.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I remained with the company about two years, at which I began to expe
2 CONC rience the effect of overtaxing and resigned. Since that time, now abo
2 CONC ut 28 years, I have been engaged in business - groceries,coal, lumbe
2 CONC r and postmaster. In 1874 I was taken sick and confined to my bed by r
2 CONC heumatism and other ills and a council of physicians decided that I co
2 CONC uld not live. I did not believe the decision to be true, at least th
2 CONC e time, a year, fixed the the principal physician. I feel at this tim
2 CONC e of my life, 80 years, competent for my business of 30 years ago, bu
2 CONC t sight and inability to get about, hinder me from active service. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT I went to Canastota right after leaving Albany the second time and en
2 CONC gaged in the coal and lumber business. While in Canastota I labored i
2 CONC n the Baptist Church, doing what I could.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I must not omit to say, while a resident in Albany I was a member o
2 CONC f the Board of Alderman, also a member of the Board of Supervisors, an
2 CONC d very happily identified with George Dawson in the Tabernacle Baptis
2 CONC t Church, of which he was a useful and much honored member. His dutie
2 CONC s in the editorial department of the Evening Journal were never allowe
2 CONC d by him to detract from his service in the church and Sunday-school
2 CONC . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT A LITTLE incident and yet NOT a little incident occurred the first se
2 CONC ason of my Troy occupation. I was much tried and tempted, my associati
2 CONC ons and surroundings were not always of such character (that) I, a you
2 CONC ng Christian, needed for association. On one occasion, riding alone i
2 CONC n a buggy from Troy to Schenectady I prayed earnestly to my Father, Go
2 CONC d, that if it would be consistent, I would be glad to have Him open u
2 CONC p for me a source which would free me from (the) associates of the kin
2 CONC d surrounding me. I received an answer to my prayer which silenced al
2 CONC l complaints of evil surroundings. The answer was this, and it was a
2 CONC s distinct as I give it to you, I have you where it pleaseth me. Th
2 CONC e prayer and answer, made nearly 60 years ago, are fresh in memory. Fo
2 CONC r the past four years and a half I have not been physically able to g
2 CONC o up the hill to our Presbyterian sanctuary but absence from private o
2 CONC r the prayer meeting has not led to indifferences to my spiritual inte
2 CONC rests. I am hoping for attendance at the prayer meeting, Providence pe
2 CONC rmitting. It was in the spring of 1893 I arranged with pastor George N
2 CONC icholls that on the occasion of the meeting for prayer, if he deemed i
2 CONC t weather suitable for me to venture; although the day bid fair fo
2 CONC r a pleasant evening the latter was not. With the present supply, I ha
2 CONC ve a similar arrangement. What the future will divulge we wait to lear
2 CONC n.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I omitted to state, that during my last residence in Schenectady, I w
2 CONC as a member of the Board of Alderman. While a member our city clerk an
2 CONC d clerk of the Board died, he, Stephen S. Riggs was poor and his salar
2 CONC y as clerk of some importance to his family. (Our) sympathies were rou
2 CONC sed and I made known to the Board that I would volunteer to fill the o
2 CONC ffice during the balance of his year and attend to my duties as Alderm
2 CONC an.

1 NOTE The following is from an unpublished manuscript sent to the compiler o
2 CONC n September 28, 2000 by Michael Lee Wemple of Bay City, MI. and writte
2 CONC n by William Barent Wemple II, compiler of the first part if this gene
2 CONC alogy from 1885-1913.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The following sketch was furnished by the Reverand Denis Wortman, D.D
2 CONC . who was at one time (Mary Wemple's) pastor in Schenectady, NY, and p
2 CONC reached at her funeral sermon, an extract from which is included in th
2 CONC e sketch.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. Myers was a woman in whom the intellectual, social and sympathet
2 CONC ic blended in an unusual degree, all largely developed as naturally t
2 CONC o make large draught on a constitution never rugged. And yet though ne
2 CONC ver strong, her desire to help others nearly always kept her above an
2 CONC y particular prostration. She was deeply religious without any semblan
2 CONC ce of cant or formalism, intensely faithful to her church (the First D
2 CONC utch Reformed) and her successive pastors. She was one of the warmes
2 CONC t of friends, eminently sympathetic and wise in councel, with a magnet
2 CONC ic, that drew an unusual number to her confidence and love. Her litera
2 CONC ry taste was eminently refined and occasionally she indulged in poeti
2 CONC c composition by tender and beautiful. Her poem, read a the dedicatio
2 CONC n of the Vale Cemetery, in Schenectady, was peculiarly fine in though
2 CONC t and diction. Her many sad bereavements she bore with beautiful resig
2 CONC nation to the will of God, and in every circumstance of life evinced f
2 CONC irm faith in the wise love of her Savior, humble resignation to His wi
2 CONC ll, and a never failing effort to do all the good she could.
2 CONT 
2 CONT EXTRACT FROM FUNERAL SERMON
2 CONT 
2 CONT It was a singular sympathetic power of hers that drew so many towar
2 CONC d her in her lovely life, a life spent in earlier years in what neare
2 CONC d affluence, but as we mostly knew her, in more humble ways; not poor
2 CONC , not rich, simply and honorable humble. I say it was a singular magne
2 CONC tism of - what shall I call it, after all? A singular magnetism of int
2 CONC ellect? Yes, but that was not all; of a deep religious spirit? Yes, bu
2 CONC t that was not all; it was these all combined - a penetrative insigh
2 CONC t into human motive, a wonderful ready sympathy, with sorrowful souls
2 CONC , a most Christian wishing always to give some help, a marvellous wisd
2 CONC om in choosing how it should be done, and a faculty of impressing othe
2 CONC rs with the profound assurance that a confidence reposed in her was sa
2 CONC fe. So she drew men to her; some to give their help to one show neede
2 CONC d it, others - many more - that they, stronger almost every way (missi
2 CONC ng text) councel, her judicious co-operation. And, strange spectacle i
2 CONC t was - this humble, gifted woman, the trusted confidant of young an
2 CONC d of old, more of the old and experienced than even of the young, mor
2 CONC e of the educated and refined than of those less cultured, the one wh
2 CONC o received and never betrayed the confidences of physician, or pastor
2 CONC , college teacher of simple friend. I think how he trusted her - the b
2 CONC eloved physician whom, on the day the new year was inaugurated, you bo
2 CONC re amid a city's sorrow, from this church to his silent tomb. I thin
2 CONC k how he esteemed her - the scholar and the eminent Christian whom thi
2 CONC s city and its college shall ever be rightly proud of, and whose nam
2 CONC e is forever identified with the reconciliation of science and religio
2 CONC n.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I know that should I name one of her former pastors - who, by the wa
2 CONC y pronounced the dedication address of the opening of your own beautif
2 CONC ul Vale Cemetery, as this beloved woman wrote the dedication poe
2 CONC m - I know should I mention his name, the assemblage would recognize w
2 CONC ith pleasing interest the fact, that sustaining the honors and dutie
2 CONC s of his high position in a New England college, and slowly consentin
2 CONC g at times to bear the responsibilities imposed by the Commonwealth, h
2 CONC e numbers the kindness and the help he, as the then youthful pastor o
2 CONC f this church, received from this wise and faithful friend.
2 CONT 
2 CONT My thoughts traverse at wide range, and I think of the scores and hun
2 CONC dreds, among you men and women of Schenectady, who recognized her wort
2 CONC h, who went to her often and found her weary, yet never so weary but s
2 CONC he could patiently hear your story through, and you went away happie
2 CONC r and better. She perhaps makes you stronger. For myself, I cannot spe
2 CONC ak. The words of cheer I received from her in days of feebleness and d
2 CONC espondency, the honest criticism that I coveted, the thoughtful encour
2 CONC agement she knew how to give when else wise I had almost shrunk from p
2 CONC ressing labors and so imperfect accomplishment of good plans, for he
2 CONC r good words, good counsels, good wishes, and good prayers, I simply c
2 CONC rave the privilege at this moment of deeply blessing God.
2 CONT 
2 CONT If I do not err, the life that now has ended has to greater or less e
2 CONC xtent pervaded at times, life a certain unseen tonic in the air, no
2 CONC t a few of the multitudinous activities of this city. It was a quiet w
2 CONC oman's quiet life - yet through the encouragement and the wise counse
2 CONC l so frequently and never vainly sought by others, that life has smoot
2 CONC hed the pillows of the many, has been physician to the invalid, has mi
2 CONC nistered in yonder pulpit, has taught the youth in yonder seat of lear
2 CONC ning. If we be wise we shall learn the lesson that may prove of valu
2 CONC e to us, of blessed help to others.

1 NOTE As of this date nothing is known about Jan Barentse Wemp before his mi
2 CONC gration to the Rensselaer Dutch colony in the new world, other than hi
2 CONC s father's name was Barent. This colony was located near the present t
2 CONC own of Albany, NY. There are some indications that he may have saile
2 CONC d on the Dutch ship den Houttuyn, which arrived in at Schuyler Flatt
2 CONC s on the Hudson River on in 1640, but no records verifying this can b
2 CONC e found. There are other ships that sailed from Holland to the new wor
2 CONC ld during this time period on which he could have sailed. There are al
2 CONC so some indications that Jan may have served as an indentured servan
2 CONC t for Killean Van Rensselaer on his farm as a herder of livestock fro
2 CONC m 1640 to 1645. This is partially based on his nickname of Poest, whic
2 CONC h had a variety of meanings in the Dutch language, including noisy-her
2 CONC der. Of course, Jan could have worked for wages during these years o
2 CONC f working for Killean Van Rensselaer. In any event our forefather wa
2 CONC s from a humble beginning. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The first recordation of Jan Wemp a record called the Van Rensselaer M
2 CONC anuscripts. This record is discussed in an article written by Willia
2 CONC m C. Wemple, and originally published in the MOHAWK VALLEY DEMOCTAT i
2 CONC n 1938. This article says that the immigrant was placed in charge of t
2 CONC he farm at Rensselaerwyck on April 10, 1645 for L300 a year. The artic
2 CONC le continues that on June 11. 1646, Jan was relieved of his duties bec
2 CONC ause of, as stated in the Dutch language,  sportlingh met de Wilden  o
2 CONC r translated into English  trouble with the Indians.  William C. Wempl
2 CONC e s article does not clearly say why Jan Wemp was relived on his dutie
2 CONC s, and his article does not go into any detail of what the  trouble wi
2 CONC th the Indians  exactly was. In speculation, it could have been his la
2 CONC ck of ability to get along with the local natives, or it could have be
2 CONC en that the natives simply could not get along with Jan Wemp. In any e
2 CONC vent, Killean Van Rensselaer felt it was to his interest that Jan be r
2 CONC elieved of his duties. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Records of Jan Wemp s life are available for research in the New Yor
2 CONC k State Library and elsewhere in New York and continue on to past hi
2 CONC s death in 1663 as his widow remarries and continues on with her life
2 CONC . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT A sad, side note: In all my research have I been able to find that th
2 CONC e Wemple name is connected in any way with van or von. Nowhere in Holl
2 CONC and or Germany is there a village, town, city or province by the nam
2 CONC e of Wemple, so the wish that we are somehow named Van Wemple is incon
2 CONC gruous. It is simply not possible, so we ll just have to content ourse
2 CONC lves with being plain old Wemps/Wemples. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The following is from the work of William Barent Wemple, the origina
2 CONC l compiler of the family s genealogy who worked on the family tree fro
2 CONC m about 1885 to 1913. The main subject of what immediately follows i
2 CONC s about the two names that Jan went by, Wemp and Poest, and that Jan i
2 CONC s in fact both Wemp and Poest: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Of the large number of public records on file in the office of the Cou
2 CONC nty Clerk, Albany, N.Y., in the New York State Library, Albany, N.Y.
2 CONC , and in possession of the Van Rensselaer family, Albany, N.Y., relati
2 CONC ng to Jan Barentsen Wemple, they all, with three or four exceptions, g
2 CONC ive his name as  Wemp.  The very few and unimportant exceptions give h
2 CONC is name as  Poest.  While it has always been assumed and stated by suc
2 CONC h historians as Pearson, Munsell, and those following them, that Wem
2 CONC p and Poest were the same person, there has never been any actual proo
2 CONC f of this fact until the compiler discovered among the Rensselaerwyc
2 CONC k papers, owned by Mr. William Bayard Van Rensselaer, Albany, N.Y., th
2 CONC e following original bill (written in Dutch and translated): 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jan Barentsz Wemp is indebted this day, April 19, 1659, at Amsterdam
2 CONC : hired for him a boy, named Christiaen Christiaensz, to whom I have a

2 CONT (signed) Arnold J.F. van Laer
2 CONT Archivist, N.Y. State Library. Albany, N.Y., June 29, 1904 
2 CONT 
2 CONT William Barent Wemple continues his account of how, in his opinion, th
2 CONC e immigrant came by his name of Wemp: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The above original account is proof positive that Wemp and Poest wer
2 CONC e one and the same person, because the face of it was made out in Amst
2 CONC erdam, Holland, at the home-office and headquarters of the Rensselaerw
2 CONC yck Colony, and there they would be very careful to write the name a
2 CONC s nearly correct as possible and it is borne out by the records in th
2 CONC e Colony itself that it was so done.  The account was sent over to th
2 CONC e Colony at Albany, from Holland, for collection against Wemp's accoun
2 CONC t.  When received at the Colony, it was folded for filing away, and o
2 CONC n the back of the account was endorsed its number (7) and the name o
2 CONC f the debtor.  Instead of endorsing the debtor's correct name of the b
2 CONC ack, the clerk endorsed the nickname by which Wemp was sometimes known
2 CONC , being that of  Poest.   From the evidence of the records, it is appa
2 CONC rent he was not called that to the exclusion of his correct name, as w
2 CONC as the case in many instances.  It was customary at that period in ou
2 CONC r history, when patronymics were comparatively rare excepting among th
2 CONC e more prominent families, to give a man a name that derived its signi
2 CONC ficance from his occupation, place of residence in the mother countr
2 CONC y or here, prominence or defect of some mental or physical characteris
2 CONC tic, and in fact, jokes and unusual situations have contributed to fas
2 CONC ten names upon men that have descended to the present generation.  I
2 CONC n other cases men have borne a regular family name and have been give
2 CONC n an additional one derived from some of the above-mentioned sources
2 CONC . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Others have different observations.  As an example, a Nancy M. Zeller
2 CONC , who was Assistant to the Translator in the New Netherland Project ha
2 CONC d the following to say in some papers she sent to David R. Wemple on F
2 CONC ebruary 18, 1987.  One genealogy says he came from Peest in Drethe, (H
2 CONC olland), but  poest is an old Dutch word meaning  stable boy.  Wemp o
2 CONC r wemple (wimple) has something to do with cloth; he (the immigrant) p
2 CONC robably took the surname after migrating to distinguish from other Bar
2 CONC entszs  (that were in the colony.) 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Let us continue with the writing of William Barent Wemple: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Another record which indicated that he was from Holland is one on fil
2 CONC e in Albany, (N.Y.) County Clerk's office in a book labeled  Mortgages
2 CONC , No. 1, 1652-1660, on page 158 thereof dated July 15, 1659, wherei
2 CONC n is recorded a suit brought by Wemp against Adrian Symonson for the r
2 CONC ecovery of 15 beavers  which the deft. has taken with him to Holland t
2 CONC o deliver to plaintiff's wife but which she has not received.   This s
2 CONC hows that Wemp's wife was on a visit to Holland in 1659 and presumptiv
2 CONC e evidence that they were Netherlanders. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Although in the records relating to the first ancestor of this famil
2 CONC y in America the name is universally written  Wemp  there is good reas
2 CONC on for believing that the correct form was  Wemple  as used at the pre
2 CONC sent day by the majority of the family.  Commencing with the grandchil
2 CONC dren of the immigrant, the records sometimes speak of the same perso
2 CONC n as  Wemp  and at others as  Wemple.   With the next generation the n
2 CONC ame is almost always written  Wemple.   A more convincing proof, howev

2 CONT While it is thought by many in the family that Jan Barentse Wemp was D

2 CONC vidence that he came from one of the German proveniences, such as Bava
2 CONC ria. One thing that happened to the latest compiler is years ago he ha
2 CONC d contact with a German immigrant who exclaimed when he found his las
2 CONC t name was Wemple,  Oh, you are German. I served in World War I unde
2 CONC r a Lieutenant Wemple.  Today in looking through phone books of German
2 CONC y one will find Wemples and Wemps listed. However, the name Wempe seem
2 CONC s to be from a different root than ours.

2 CONT One of the most noteworthy of those sturdy Dutchmen, next to Van Curle

2 CONT Jan Barentse Wemp, the elder, was one of the original fourteen pioneer
2 CONC s who settled in Schenectady in 1662.  It is said that Governor Stuyve
2 CONC sant granted the first patent of land (an island at the town of Schene
2 CONC ctady) in 1662, to Jan Barentse Wemp and Jacques Cornelise Van Slyck
2 CONC , a half-breed. This island was sometimes called Wemp's Island, and i
2 CONC s now known as Van Slyck's Island.  Jan's name is connected very close
2 CONC ly with the early history among many of the prominent families of th
2 CONC e whole Mohawk Valley.

2 CONT 
2 CONT . . . It has been stated by such historians as Pearson and Munsell, th
2 CONC at Jan Barentse Wemp and Poest were one and the same person. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT This, however, does not prove that Poest was the surname, for a larg
2 CONC e number of records on file in the office of the County Clerk at Alban
2 CONC y, in the New York State Library, and in the possession of the Van Ren
2 CONC sselaer family, relating to Jan Barentse Wemp, they all with three o
2 CONC r four exceptions give the name as Wemp, Wimp. Wempel, Wymple or Wempl
2 CONC e. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT In a few unimportant cases it is given as Poest and after some study
2 CONC , Mr. A.J. F. Van Laer (archivist of the New York State Library) say
2 CONC s he believes it to have been used as a nickname only,  . . .  He doe
2 CONC s not think poest was the town from which he came as it never writte
2 CONC n van poest. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT From April 10, 1645 to June 11, 1646, he had charge of the patroons fa
2 CONC rm called  de Vlackte  and during that period is credited with wages a
2 CONC t the rate of three hundred pounds a year for the service of himself a
2 CONC nd his wife. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He left de Vlackte June 11, 1646 on account of some sportlingh met d
2 CONC e Wilden (trouble with the Indians) and August 13, 1646 agreed to tak
2 CONC e charge of the saw and gristmill on the fifth creek for the term o
2 CONC f 5 years at wages of thirteen pounds a month and one hundred pound
2 CONC s a year for board.  . . . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT March 20, 1647, with Andries Herbertaz, he took a lease of land sout
2 CONC h of Jan Dircksz from Brennen and east of Albert Andriesz along the cr
2 CONC eek of Castle Island and the Mill (Normanskill) for six years at an an
2 CONC nual rate of 275 pounds. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Andries Herbertsz changed his plans and Jan Barentsz agreed to carry o
2 CONC ut the terms of the contract alone.  He remained in possession of thi
2 CONC s farm till November 1, 1654, when he took over the farm of Thomas Cha
2 CONC mbers, situated on the east side of the river on what later was know
2 CONC n as the Poesten Kill, as far as records show the farm of Thomas Chamb
2 CONC ers was the first to be established on the east side of the river, nor
2 CONC th of the present day city of Rensselaer while the tract on which it w
2 CONC as located way probably the first to be purchased from the Indians i

2 CONC tten by William Barent Wemple, compiler of the first part if this gene
2 CONC alogy from 1885-1913. The manuscript was never before published: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT As near as it is possible to determine from the evidence now in existe
2 CONC nce, Jan Barentsen Wemp was born about the year 1620. He emigrated t
2 CONC o America previous to 1645, for in that year he was established in thi
2 CONC s country in Rensselaerwyck Colony, as is evidenced by the original ac
2 CONC counts with him in the papers of the Colony now in possession of Mr. W
2 CONC illiam Van Rensselaer, Albany, NY. These papers are written in Dutch a
2 CONC nd several have been translated for this work. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Document No.1 is the oldest record mentioning his name so far discover
2 CONC ed and while this account was commenced in the year 1646, it contain
2 CONC s a credit of  97 pounds of bacon, furnished to ME in 1645  and debit
2 CONC s him with a  transfer from Ledger F, page 73  the first showing concl
2 CONC usively his presence in the colony in 1645 and the latter that he ha
2 CONC d an earlier account in Leger F, but this book unfortunately cannot no

2 CONT Note: Document No.1, referred to above, as well as other documents her
2 CONC eafter referred to can be found in the printed version of the Forth Ed
2 CONC ition of the family book titled THE DESCENDANTS OF JAM BARENTSE WEMP
2 CONC , dated March 9, 2001. The documents are not available in the compute
2 CONC r file maintained by Alan Salls at web site www.wemple.org. Continuin
2 CONC g with the work of William Barent Wemple: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The accounts between him and the Van Rensselaers run continuously dow
2 CONC n to the time of his death, and after that event, with his widow, unti
2 CONC l 1675, when they cease, but as they mostly charge him with rent of la
2 CONC nd and credit him with grain and various field products, etc., they ar
2 CONC e not of importance and would needlessly encumber this work, so it wa
2 CONC s deemed advisable to translate and exhibit only the first and last ac
2 CONC counts (see documents Nos. 1. 2) 
2 CONT 
2 CONT It will be observed that the last account shows his widow to be the wi
2 CONC fe of Sweer Theunissen (Van Velson); the reason, no doubt, for no mor
2 CONC e accounts appearing, is owning to the fact of all the family interest
2 CONC s having been transferred by this time to Schenectady, to which plac
2 CONC e they had removed a few years before. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Documents Nos. 3, 4, and 5 are translations of the original bills agai
2 CONC nst Jan Barentsen Wemp, which were made out in Amsterdam, Holland, an
2 CONC d transmitted to the Director of the Colony for collection. They are i
2 CONC nteresting as showing the business customs of those days and the firs
2 CONC t (No. 3) is of great importance for another object, viz: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Many of the early settlers were called by other than their proper nam
2 CONC es and it was not unusual for these nicknames to be used so extensivel
2 CONC y that the real name was eventually lost. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Jan Barentsen Wemp was also called Jan Barentsen POEST (pronounced PO
2 CONC OST) and document No. 3 proves this fact. In Holland, where care woul
2 CONC d naturally be taken to make a bill out in a person's proper and lega
2 CONC l name, it is written on the face, in the body,  Wemp,  but after it c
2 CONC ame over here and was folded up to file away for future reference. Th
2 CONC e person doing this inscribed on the back of the bill the number and t
2 CONC he name  Poest  by which the debtor was frequently called in the colon
2 CONC y. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  In 1659, he bought from the Indian proprietors a farm lying about sev
2 CONC en miles in a northeasterly direction from Albany. The farm was locate
2 CONC d within the present limits of the city of Troy and is the first purch
2 CONC ase of land in that city or vicinity of which where is any recorded me
2 CONC ntion (see document No. 25). This farm was traversed by a steam calle
2 CONC d the  Poestenkil  and the name derived its origin from Jan Barentse
2 CONC n Wemp's nickname of  Poest;  it literally means  Poest's creek.  Thro
2 CONC ugh all the changing time since them, the name of Poestenkil has clun
2 CONC g to this creek and on its banks a village has sprung up which bears t
2 CONC he very same name, as does also the township in which the village of s
2 CONC ituated. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Wemp built a sawmill on the Poestenkil, which was known as the  Poest
2 CONC en mill,  and he was about to launch forth on quite an extensive enter
2 CONC prise just at the time of his death, in 1663. After that occurrence, h
2 CONC is heirs sold this property (see documents Nos. 32, 33). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT   . . . April 29, 1653, he sues Marten de Brouwer for the payment of 2
2 CONC 000 bricks and the court record of May 13, 1653 shows that the partie
2 CONC s satisfactorily settled it out of Court (see document No. 6). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  March 16, 1655, he sues Claes Garritsz for breaking a wagon (see docu
2 CONC ment No. 6). Cornelis Cornelisse and Thomas Powell, on July 24, 1658
2 CONC , deed a lot in the village of Beverwyck to him and as it is bounded o
2 CONC n the north by his own property. It evidently is not his first purchas
2 CONC e, although the record of a former one is not now in existence (see do
2 CONC cument No. 7). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  April 21, 1661, he enters into a contract with Cornelis Woutersz, whe
2 CONC reby the latter agrees to repair and lengthen the barn used by Wemp, l
2 CONC ocated and the Patroon's farm (see document No. 8). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Cornelis Bogaert rents a house and lot, situated in the Colony of Ren
2 CONC sselaerwyck, of Wemp s on April 22,1661 (see document No. 9). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  A bond was executed in Wemp's favor June 13, 1661, by Aert Peetersz J
2 CONC ack of Esopus (Kingston), to secure the payment of 106 schepels of whe
2 CONC at and a new hat for Wemp's son, for a horse Wemp had sold to Jack (se
2 CONC e document No. 10). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  The same day, Aert Peetrsz Jack also empowers Wemp to purchase two ma
2 CONC res for him (see document No. 11), which in due course of time was don
2 CONC e, so that on September 7, 1661 a bill of sale, with stipulation, is r
2 CONC ecorded (see document No. 12). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Evert Pels deeds to Wemp a house and garden, on February 4, 1662, whi
2 CONC ch was situated in Fort Orange and constituted a portion of the easter
2 CONC n curtain of the fort (see document No. 13). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Jan Barentsen Wemp and Marten Mauwerensz hire Hendrick Arentse, the s
2 CONC ugar-baker, to work their farm at Schenectady for one year from Septem
2 CONC ber 16, 1662 (see document No. 14). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Governor Stuyvesant grants to Jan Barentsen Wemp and Jacques Cornelis
2 CONC se (Van Slyck) the great island, lying immediately west of Schenectady
2 CONC , in the Mohawk river, on November 12, 1662 (see document No. 15).
2 CONT  . . . Before the Dutch government would grant a title to any Indian l
2 CONC ands, those desiring the lands was obliged to first pay the Indians an
2 CONC d secure an Indian deed to the property; after that was accomplished t
2 CONC he governor would then issue a grant. Pearson says that in 1661, Aren
2 CONC t Van Curler had extinguished the Indian title to a great deal of lan
2 CONC d at Schenectady  and the following spring, with little company of pio
2 CONC neers, commenced the first settlement. Two years later the lands wer
2 CONC e surveyed, allotted and patented to fifteen persons, a portion of who
2 CONC m being non-residents, sold out their rights to permanent settlers.  (
2 CONC preface to GENEALOGIES OF THE FIRST SETTLERS OF SCHENECTADY, Jonatha
2 CONC n Pearson). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  In document No. 14, where Arentse agrees to work for Wemp and Mauwere
2 CONC nsz on their farm at Schenectady, the date of the contract is only tw
2 CONC o months prior to the grant of the island in document No.15, hence th
2 CONC e Indian title to the island must have been extinguished before Septem
2 CONC ber 16, 1662. About that time also, Marten Mauwerensz must have died
2 CONC , for when the formal grant (document No.15) was given by the governor
2 CONC , Mauwerensz is not mentioned as the other grantee with Wemp but the g
2 CONC rant names  Jacques Cornelisse, in his quality as brother and heir o
2 CONC f Marten Mourits.  This island has been known as  Marten's,   Wemp's
2 CONC ,  and  Van Slyck's  island, the last one being the most universal des
2 CONC ignation, and the patent granted in 1662 for it, antedates by nearly t
2 CONC wo years that of any other land at Schenectady. More wonderful still
2 CONC , this patent for the very first grant of land at Schenectady has surv
2 CONC ived all the vicissitudes of pioneer life and even the burning of th
2 CONC e village in 1690, as it is yet in existence and in the possession o
2 CONC f Union College library in Schenectady. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  In volume 10, page 137, of COLONIAL MANUSCRIPTS (State Library, Alban
2 CONC y, NY) are the original minutes of this proceedings of the Council whi
2 CONC ch governed the Colony, and in them is recorded that a petition was re
2 CONC ceived from the land owners of Schenectady, dated May 18, 1663, in whi
2 CONC ch the proprietors pray that the Governor send up a surveyor to allo
2 CONC t the undivided lands among them, in order that each one could know ex
2 CONC actly what portion was to be his. Although Jan Barentsen Wemp was livi
2 CONC ng in Beverwyck, yet, as an owner of land at Schenectady and a prospec
2 CONC tive beneficiary in the land division, he signed the petition. The Me
2 CONC n who united in making the request of the Governor, numbered fifteen a
2 CONC nd they are always spoken of and known as the fifteen original propri
2 CONC etors of Schenectady. Wemp died before the apportionment was made bu
2 CONC t his heirs must have benefited by the final allotment, for Pearson, i
2 CONC n his HISTORY OF THE SCHENECTADY PATENT, says,  Wemp's village lot wa
2 CONC s on the west side of Washington street, commencing on the north sid
2 CONC e of the lot of Charles Thompson, and extending southward 166 feet mor
2 CONC e or less, and westward to the river. This lot was inherited by his so
2 CONC n Myndert, who was killed in the massacre of 1690. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT   . . . It seems that Jan Barentsen Wemp furnished Aert Pietersz Jack
2 CONC , whose name also appears in previous documents, considerable money wi
2 CONC th which to purchase and equip Jack's farm at Esopus (now Kingston), w
2 CONC hich was not repaid, for, on January 10, 1664, Maritie Mynderts, Wemp'
2 CONC s widow, appointed three agents who were to proceed to Esopus and afte
2 CONC r inventorying Jack's property, take possession of it for her benefi
2 CONC t (see document Nos. 18, 12a). They must have been unable to accomplis
2 CONC h this, for, on April 25, 1664, in an appeal to the Director General a
2 CONC nd Council of New Netherland, her agents recited the fact that certai
2 CONC n creditors had disposed of some of Jack's property and received the m
2 CONC oney for the same, therefore, they petition, to have all such action
2 CONC s stopped (see document No. 19). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  On the same day, the Director General in a letter to the court of Eso
2 CONC pus admonished them to proceed with care and to take charge of the mon
2 CONC eys, in order that all may receive their just share (see document No
2 CONC . 20). The paper appointing the three agents (document No. 18) state
2 CONC s the fact that Maritie Mynderts was at the time living in the Colon
2 CONC y of Rensselaerwyck, and as this was hardly a year after the death o
2 CONC f her husband, is quite conclusive evidence of the not having reside
2 CONC d there. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Maritie Mynderts leases to Jacques Cornelise Van Slyck her one half o
2 CONC f the island at Schenectady, for four years from May 13, 1664 (see doc
2 CONC ument No. 21). The other half of the island was owned by Van Slyck. Th
2 CONC is lease is an interesting exhibition of the customs of those days. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  She sells to Jan Cornelisz Van der Heyden (her brother-in-law) and Po
2 CONC ulus Cornilisz, some kind of a boat or vessel, for $400.00, on May 22
2 CONC , 1664 (see document No. 22).  On June 12, 1664, Maritie Mynderts, wid
2 CONC ow of Jan Barentsen Wemp, was about to marry Sweer Theunissen Van West
2 CONC broeck (who was also known by the name of Sweer Theunissen Van Velsen)
2 CONC , and before the ceremony was performed, they entered into an agreemen
2 CONC t with the guardians of the children brought forth between herself an
2 CONC d Wemp, concerning the settlement upon them of a portion of the father
2 CONC 's estate (see document No. 23). On the same day, Maritie Mynderts an
2 CONC d Sweer Theunissen Van Westbroeck, made an ante-nuptial contract in re
2 CONC gards to the contemplated marriage and its stipulations include the co
2 CONC nditions that, in the event of the mother's death, the children shal
2 CONC l receive $640.00 from her estate in addition to the portion settled o
2 CONC n them from their father's property by preceding agreement (see docume
2 CONC nt No. 24). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Document No. 23 is an exceedingly valuable record from a genealogica
2 CONC l standpoint, as it is positive proof of the names and ages of Jan Bar
2 CONC entsen Wemp's children and is attested by the signature of the mother
2 CONC , together with those of her future husband, the children's guardian
2 CONC , the officer of the Colony at Rensselaerwyck, and the famous Arent Va
2 CONC n Curler, commissioner. It also mentions sufficient property, which ha
2 CONC s been pledged for the execution of its terms, to show that Jan Barent
2 CONC sen Wemp, who although a comparatively young man of about 45 years a
2 CONC t the time of his death, was what might be called moderately wealthy m
2 CONC an of those days, even though all personal property, and doubtless oth
2 CONC er real estate, is not spoken on in the contract. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  After Sweer Theunissen Van Westbroeck's marriage with Jan Barentsen W
2 CONC emp's widow, the property of Wemp passed into his possession, accordin
2 CONC g to law, and when the New Netherlands were transferred by the Dutch i
2 CONC nto the hands of the English, the latter government guaranteed unto ev
2 CONC ery landowner a peaceful possession of his lands by granting a confirm
2 CONC ation of the title; as a result of this, Sweer Theunissen had confirme
2 CONC d unto him, in 1667, a farm (Poesten Bouwery) in the Colony. This far
2 CONC m was that containing Poesten Mill, on the Poestenkil, and a portion o
2 CONC f it Sweer Theunissen sold to Jan Cornelissen Vyselaer and Luyear Piet
2 CONC ersen Coeymans in 1675 (see document No. 33); the remainder, in 1679 (
2 CONC he sold) to Pieter Pieterse Van Waggelen (document No 37). The one hal
2 CONC f of Marten's Island at Schenectady and a house and lot in Beaverwyck
2 CONC , all formally belonging to Wemp. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  . . . As shown in document No. 30, Sweer Theunissen was living in th
2 CONC e Colony of Rensselaerwyck May 27, 1699, and engaged in farming, but s
2 CONC hortly after he must have removed to Schenectady, with his wife and We
2 CONC mp's children, for in his petition to the Governor for a redress of gr
2 CONC ievances, he recites that he did build at Schenectady a corn-mill an
2 CONC d made a contract with the community, January 28, 1669, by which it wa
2 CONC s agreed that he should enjoy all the privileges of any miller in th
2 CONC e county.  . . . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  . . . Jan Barentsen Wemp's lot situated in Albany, which was confirme
2 CONC d to Van Velsen, April 15, 1667 (see document No. 27). The latter sol
2 CONC d (the lot) to Woulter Aerse Raemmaker, June 12, 1678; the house had b
2 CONC een preciously taken down and removed to Schenectady. Pearsons claim
2 CONC s that this lot was situated on the west corner of Broadway and Van Tr
2 CONC omp street, in Albany (see document No. 36). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  Van Velsen also sold to Pieter Pietersen Van Waggelen, May 6, 1679, a
2 CONC ll that remained of Wemp's farm, called Poesten Bouwery, which was no
2 CONC t included in the sale of the Poesten Mill and four acres of ground co
2 CONC nveyed in 1675 to Vyselaer and Coeymans (see document No. 37). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  For the consideration of agreeing to provide Jacob Hevick with boar
2 CONC d and clothing as long as he lived, and upon his death, to decently bu
2 CONC ry him, Hevick's wife conveys to Van Velson her home and barn togethe
2 CONC r with five lots of land situated on Lubberde Landt (Troy) September 1
2 CONC , 1680 (see document No. 38. The five lots of land were conveyed to He
2 CONC nry Lansing on March 8, 1694 (see document No. 42). On March 6, 1682/3
2 CONC , Sweer Theunissen is sued by the guardians of Jan Barentsen Wemp's ch
2 CONC ildren for an accounting of the property and a division among the surv
2 CONC iving children of their sister Grietje's share in her father's estate
2 CONC , she having died in 1665, aged fourteen years (see document No. 39)
2 CONC . The guardians won the case and Van Velsen appealed from the verdic
2 CONC t but it was sustained.

2 CONT  Sander Lendetse Glen, John Van Epps and Sweer Theunissen Van Velson h
2 CONC aving purchased from the Indians proprietors, July 3, 1672, the land w

2 CONT 
2 CONT  Sweer Theunissen Van Velson and his wife Marite Mynderts were both sl

2 CONC ry an agreement for the settlement and division of their property wa
2 CONC s concluded between the surviving heirs, who were Myndert Janse Wemp w
2 CONC ife and children, Antie Janse Wemp, (wife of Captain Sander Glen), an
2 CONC d Barent Janse Wemp. Grietje, as has been previously shown, died in 16
2 CONC 65; Aeltie must have died before this time without issue, or else sh
2 CONC e or he heirs would have been included; Myndert was killed during th
2 CONC e massacre. Van Velsen had no children at the time of his death. Thi
2 CONC s last fact is attested by a petition gotten up by the inhabitants o
2 CONC f Schenectady, dated October 10, 1702, praying the Governor and Counci
2 CONC l that the power of electing new trustees under the patent be grante
2 CONC d them, which states and since ye said Sweer Theunissen is deceased w

2 CONT 
2 CONT  . . . This settlement was, however, never effected, because they lear

2 CONC .  Owing to the disappearance of the will at the time of the massacre
2 CONC , they did not know what portion of his property had been devised to t

2 CONC m November 1660, when Sweer Teunissen from Velsen near Arnhem in the N
2 CONC etherlands was engaged to come to Rensselaerwyck to serve as a hired h
2 CONC and on the farm operated by Jan Barentsen Wemp. Wemp had been at the c
2 CONC olony since the 1640's, owning or working several farms and operatin
2 CONC g a sawmill and gristmill for the patroon. In 1651 he supervised  a st
2 CONC ately farm  near the Normanskill, consisting of fourteen morgens of la
2 CONC nd and including eight horses and nine cows. Wemp exchanged this prope
2 CONC rty for a larger farm on the east side if the Hudson River on what wou
2 CONC ld later be known as Poestenkil. In 1661 his home was fine enough to b
2 CONC e leased by Jeremias van Rensselaer for use by the colony's schout. Un
2 CONC der Wemp's tutelage, van Velsen would have acquired a solid knowledg

2 CONT 
2 CONT After the death of her husband, Jan Barentse Wemp, we find Maritie wit
2 CONC h a valuable estate and many responsibilities.  From the following pet
2 CONC ition it would seem that she had the assistance of her son-in-law, Ja
2 CONC n Cornelissen van der Heyden.
2 CONT 
2 CONT We have not the date of the death of Jan Barentsz, but it occurred bet
2 CONC ween May 18, 1663 and June 28th of the same year and the management o
2 CONC f his estate by his widow, Maritie Mynderts would seem to prove he
2 CONC r a woman of ability.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She was one on the Myndertse family of two brothers of which were amon
2 CONC g the early settlers of Beverwyck (Albany).  They came from Iveren an
2 CONC d were know as Myndertse and Carsten Fredeickse.
2 CONT 
2 CONT They were members of the Lutheran Church of which Myndert was an elde
2 CONC r and Carsten a deacon in 1680.  The unsettled condition of the earl
2 CONC y Dutch family names is well known by this family.  Those of Carsten r
2 CONC etained the name of Frederickse while the descendants of Myndertse som
2 CONC e took the name of Myndertse, his Christian name, and others took tha
2 CONC t of Van Iveren, the place from which he came from in Holland.

2 CONT 
2 CONT The following is a continuation of the unpublished manuscript, sent t
2 CONC o the compiler on September 28, 2000 by Michael Lee Wemple of Bay City
2 CONC , MI, started in Jan Barentse Wemple's Note Pages. This manuscript wa
2 CONC s written by William Barent Wemple, compiler of the first part if thi
2 CONC s genealogy from 1885-1913.
2 CONT 
2 CONT . . .  On June 12, 1664, Maritie Mynderts, widow of Jan Barentsen Wemp
2 CONC , was about to marry Sweer Theunissen Van Westbroeck (who was also kno
2 CONC wn by the name of Sweer Theunissen Van Velsen), and before the ceremon
2 CONC y was performed, they entered into an agreement with the guardians o
2 CONC f the children brought forth between herself and Wemp, concerning th
2 CONC e settlement upon them of a portion of the father's estate (see docume
2 CONC nt No. 23). On the same day, Maritie Mynderts and Sweer Theunissen Va
2 CONC n Westbroeck, made an ante-nuptial contract in regards to the contempl
2 CONC ated marriage and its stipulations include the conditions that, in th
2 CONC e event of the mother's death, the children shall receive $640.00 fro
2 CONC m her estate in addition to the portion settled on them from their fat
2 CONC her's property by preceding agreement (see document No. 24).
2 CONT 
2 CONT Document No. 23 is an exceedingly valuable record from a genealogica
2 CONC l standpoint, as it is positive proof of the names and ages of Jan Bar
2 CONC entsen Wemp's children and is attested b the signature of of the mothe
2 CONC r, together with those of her future husband, the children's guardian
2 CONC , the officer of the Colony at Rensselaerwyck, and the famous Arent Va
2 CONC n Curler, commissioner. It also mentions sufficient property, which ha
2 CONC s been pledged for the execution of its terms, to show that Jan Barent
2 CONC sen Wemp, who although a comparatively young man of about 45 years a
2 CONC t the time of his death, was what might be called moderately wealthy m
2 CONC an of those days, even though all personal property, and doubtless oth
2 CONC er real estate, is not spoken on in the contract.
2 CONT 
2 CONT To one who has carefully followed, by perusal, the various documents i
2 CONC n the progression of the work to this point, it must be readily manife
2 CONC st that Jan Barentsen Wemp was not only a man of considerable means fo
2 CONC r his time but occupied a place of distinction in the Colony, having a
2 CONC ttained it by thrift, industry and perseverance, rising from what wa
2 CONC s certainly an humble position, as shown by the first document. Probab
2 CONC ly no better example of the consideration in which he was held by hi
2 CONC s contemporaries can be given than to enter into a brief explanation a
2 CONC s to the custom of writing names. If he had been merely a person of th
2 CONC e lowest class, he would have been distinguished either by his nicknam
2 CONC e Jan Barentsen Poest almost exclusively, or simply as Jan Barentse
2 CONC n, without hardly an allusion to his surname; this latter method wa
2 CONC s by far the prevailing custom. In only three instances is the nicknam
2 CONC e Poest used, even then not in records of any importance, and no
2 CONC t a single other case, where it is positively certain that the is th
2 CONC e person referred to, do the records omit his full name of Jan Barent
2 CONC sen Wemp.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It is a source of regret that he was so early called to lay down his e
2 CONC arthly work and when only just entering upon the most useful period o
2 CONC f his life.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After Sweer Theunissen Van Westbroeck's marriage with Jan Barentsen We
2 CONC mp's widow, the property of Wemp passed into his possession, accordin
2 CONC g to law, and when the New Netherlands were transferred by the Dutch i
2 CONC nto the hands of the English, the latter government guaranteed unto ne
2 CONC arly land owner a peaceful possession of his lands by granting a confi
2 CONC rmation of the title; as a result of this, Sweer Theunissen had confir
2 CONC med unto him, in 1667, a farm (Poesten Bouwery) in the Colony. This fa
2 CONC rm was that (one) containing Poesten Mill, on the Poestenkil, and a po
2 CONC rtion of it Sweer Theunissen sold to Jan Cornelissen Vyselaer and Luye
2 CONC ar Pietersen Coeymans in 1675 (see document No. 33); the remainder, i
2 CONC n 1679 (he sold) to Pieter Pieterse Van Waggelen (document No 37). Th
2 CONC e one half of Marten's Island at Schenectady and a house and lot in Be
2 CONC averwyck, all formally belonging to Wemp.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1668 there were also confirmatory patents issued to him (Sweer Theu
2 CONC nissen Van Westbroeck) for two lots of ground at Esopus (Kingston), wh
2 CONC ich were originally his by virtue of patents granted by the Dutch Gove
2 CONC rnor, Stuyvesant (see document Nos. 25, 26, 27, 28, 29).
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sweer Theunissen gives a bond on mortgage, May 27, 1669, to Geertruy
2 CONC t Barents, wife of Jacob Henen, to secure a debt of about $45.00. Thi
2 CONC s record says he was at the time a resident of the Colony of Rensselae
2 CONC rwyck (see document No. 30)
2 CONT 
2 CONT On June 13, 1669, Johanna Ebbinch deeds him a lot on Lubberde's Land
2 CONC t (Troy), in the Colony of Rensselaerwyck, according to the stipulatio
2 CONC n in the deed granted to his predecessor, Jan Barentsz Wemp, deceased
2 CONC , having the same length and width as when the purchaser took possessi
2 CONC on of the same. (see document No. 31).
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sweer Theunissen conveys to Jan Cornelissen Vyselaer and Luycas Pieter
2 CONC se Coeymans the Poesten Mill, together with four acres of land and th
2 CONC e creed (Poestenkil) on which the mill is situated, on June 25, 1675 (
2 CONC see document No. 33).
2 CONT 
2 CONT As shown in document No. 30, Sweer Theunissen was living in the Colon
2 CONC y of Rensselaerwyck May 27, 1699, and engaged in farming, but shortl
2 CONC y after he must have removed to Schenectady, with his wife and Wemp'
2 CONC s children, for in his petition to the Governor for a redress of griev
2 CONC ances, he recites that he did build at Schenectady a corn-mill and ma
2 CONC de a contract with the community, January 28, 1669, by which it was ag
2 CONC reed that he should enjoy all the privileges of any miller in the coun
2 CONC ty.  . . . ; after about two years on extraordinary high flood carrie
2 CONC d off his mill; he engaged to rebuild the mill and completed it befor
2 CONC e July 1673, at which time a new covenant was made. By the terms of h
2 CONC is first contract the was to receive eight stuivers per shipple, and t
2 CONC he second agreement allowed him, in consideration of the loss sustaine
2 CONC d by flood, to charge ten stuivers; both contracts stipulated that n
2 CONC o other mill was to be erected as long as he did accommodate the peopl
2 CONC e with good meal. (see document No. 34). Pearson says this was the fi
2 CONC rst grist mill built in the settlement and that it was situated on Mil
2 CONC l Lane.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1673, Sweer Theunissen was made a justice of the peace for Schenect
2 CONC ady.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jan Barentsen Wemp's lot, situated in Albany, which was confirmed to V
2 CONC an Velsen, April 15, 1667 (see document No. 27). The latter sold (th
2 CONC e lot) to Woulter Aerse Raemmaker, June 12, 1678; the house had been p
2 CONC reciously taken down and removed to Schenectady. Pearsons claims tha
2 CONC t this lot was situated on the west corner of Broadway and Van Tromp s
2 CONC treet, in Albany (see document No. 36).
2 CONT 
2 CONT Van Velsen also sold to Pieter Pietersen Van Waggelen, May 6, 1679, al
2 CONC l that remained of  the Wemp's farm, called Poesten Bouwery, which wa
2 CONC s not included in the sale of the Poesten Mill and four acres of groun
2 CONC d conveyed in 1675 to Vyselaer and Coeymans (see document No. 37).
2 CONT 
2 CONT For the consideration of agreeing to provide Jacob Hevick with board a
2 CONC nd clothing as long as he lived, and upon his death, to decently bur
2 CONC y him, Hevick's wife conveys to Van Velson her home and barn togethe
2 CONC r with five lots of land situated on Lubberde Landt (Troy) September 1
2 CONC , 1680 (see document No. 38. The five lots of land were conveyed to He
2 CONC nry Lansing on March 8, 1694 (see document No. 42). On March 6, 1682/3
2 CONC , Sweer Theunissen is sued by the guardians of Jan Barentsen Wemp's ch
2 CONC ildren for an accounting of the property and a division among the surv
2 CONC iving children of their sister Grietje's share in her father's estate
2 CONC , she having died in 1665, aged fourteen years (see document No. 39)
2 CONC . The guardians won the case and Van Velsen appealed from the verdic
2 CONC t but it was sustained.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sander Lendetse Glen, John Van Epps and Sweer Theunissen Van Velson ha
2 CONC ving purchased from the Indians proprietors, July 3, 1672, the land wh
2 CONC ich was included in the Schenectady Patent, comprising 16 miles alon
2 CONC g the river and four miles back on both sides, a patent was granted fo
2 CONC r this territory, on  November 1, 1684, into William Teller, Reyer Sch
2 CONC ermerhorn, Sweer Theunissen Van Velson, John Van Epps and Myndert Wemp
2 CONC , as trustees and representatives of the inhabitants of Schenectady.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sweer Theunissen Van Velson and his wife Marite Mynderts were both sla
2 CONC in in the massacre of Schenectady, February 9, 1689/90, when the villa
2 CONC ge was destroyed by the French and Indians, and on the 26th of Februar
2 CONC y an agreement for the settlement and division of their property was c
2 CONC oncluded between the surviving heirs, who were Myndert Janse Wemp wif
2 CONC e and children, Antie Janse Wemp, (wife of Captain Sander Glen), and B
2 CONC arent Janse Wemp. Grietje, as has been previously shown, died in 1665
2 CONC ; Aeltie must have died before this time without issue, or else she o
2 CONC r he heirs would have been included; Myndert was killed during the mas
2 CONC sacre. Van Velsen had no children at the time of his death. This las
2 CONC t fact is attested by a petition gotten up by the inhabitants of Schen
2 CONC ectady, dated October 10, 1702, praying the Governor and Council tha
2 CONC t the power of electing new trustees under the patent be granted them
2 CONC , which states and since ye said Sweer Theunissen is deceased withou
2 CONC t leaving an heir.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The entire estate, both real and personal, was to be divided into thre
2 CONC e equal parts and one had not advantage over another. It would appea
2 CONC r that the property was considerable, for a forfeit of $1250.00 was ma
2 CONC de in the event of any of the parties attempting to break the contrac
2 CONC t (see document No. 41).
2 CONT 
2 CONT This settlement was, however, never effected, because they learned tha
2 CONC t Van Velsen by certain witness of true and trusty persons had made a
2 CONC nd bequeathed in his last will and testament that Nether dutch Reforme
2 CONC d Church of Shinnectady as an heir to a part of his estate. Owing t
2 CONC o the disappearance of the will at the time of the massacre, they di
2 CONC d not know what portion of his property had been devised to the church
2 CONC , and while the church had no legal claim to any portion of the estate
2 CONC , yet, as they did not desire y't y'e aforesaid Nether dutch Reforme
2 CONC d Church should in any wise be a loser of their right, they conveye
2 CONC d to the church, by deed of April 15, 1696, the corn-mill, together wi
2 CONC th a large tract of accompanying land (see document No 43).
2 CONT 
2 CONT Pearsons HISTORY OF THE SCHENECTADY PATENT referring to Van Velsen say
2 CONC s, besides the half of Van Slyck's island, acquired through his wife
2 CONC , he owned the land on the south side of State street from Church stre
2 CONC et nearly to Coehorn Creek easterly, and extending southerly and weste
2 CONC rly upon the low land to and beyond Mill Creek so as to comprehend 2
2 CONC 4 acres.  . . . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The exact position of Van Velsen's house in the village cannot be fixe
2 CONC d with certainty, but was probably situated between the house of Mrs
2 CONC . Abel Smith and the south corner of Mill Lane and State street.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From his house easterly to Coehorn kil, State street at this time wa
2 CONC s only settled upon the north side, and the ancient burghers had a cle
2 CONC ar view from their front stoops, of Juffrow's Landt and the wooded hei
2 CONC ghts lying south and west of the village. That portion of the above de
2 CONC scribed land, including the Mill, lying between Church and Dock street
2 CONC s, was conveyed to the church; the remainder was held by Wemp's heirs
2 CONC . As the demand for house lots increased, the church divided up and so
2 CONC ld its portion fronting on State street, reserving the low land in th
2 CONC e rear, and the corn-mill on Mill Lane. This was called the Church Pa
2 CONC sture, and was not finally sold until some time after 1800.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1654, Jan Barentsen Wemp rented a farm of the Patroon, in Rensselae
2 CONC rwyck Colony, until May 1, 1659, and on August 21, 1658, the lease wa
2 CONC s extended two years, or until May 1, 1661 (see document No. 2 1/2).
2 CONT 
2 CONT The following is from a book titled MOHAWK FRONTIER: The Dutch communi
2 CONC ty of Schenectady, New York, 1661-1710 by Thomas E. Burke, Jr., loane
2 CONC d to the compiler by William Westbrook Wemple, page 63:
2 CONT 
2 CONT . . . Before his death in 1690 van Velsen operated a grist mill and ow
2 CONC ned land, buildings, horses and slaves. All this was far removed fro
2 CONC m November 1660, when Sweer Teunissen from Velsen near Arnhem in the N
2 CONC etherlands was engaged to come to Rensselaerwyck to serve as a hired h
2 CONC and on the farm operated by Jan Barentsen Wemp. Wemp had been at the c
2 CONC olony since the 1640's, owning or working several farms and operatin
2 CONC g a sawmill and grist mill for the patroon. In 1651 he supervised a s
2 CONC tately farm near the Normanskill, consisting of fourteen morgens of l
2 CONC and and including eight horses and nine cows. Wemp exchanged this prop
2 CONC erty for a larger farm on the east side if the Hudson River on what wo
2 CONC uld later be known as Poestenkil. In 1661 his home was fine enough t
2 CONC o be leased by Jeremias van Rensselaer for use by the colony's schout
2 CONC . Under Wemp's tutelage, van Velsen would have acquired a solid knowle
2 CONC dge of farm labor and mill work. Starting as a servant, he rose rapidl
2 CONC y. After Wemp's death, van Velsen married his widow, probably in Jun

2 CONT 
2 CONT Barent Janse Wemp was born in the Colony of Rensselaerswyck in the yea
2 CONC r 1656. The proof of this being the son of Jan Barentsen Wemp and Mari
2 CONC tie Mynderts, as well as the year of his birth, rest in document No. 2
2 CONC 3, which is the contract made by his mother on June 12, 1664, agreein
2 CONC g upon certain settlements of her husband's property with the guardian
2 CONC s of her children, when she was about to enter into a marriage with Sw
2 CONC eer Theunissen Van Westbroeck. This contract states that Barent was he
2 CONC r off-spring by her husband Jan Barentsen Wemp. and that he was eigh
2 CONC t years of age in 1664.
2 CONT 
2 CONT His place of residence was transferred to Schenectady in 1669, or ther
2 CONC eabouts, when his step-father removed to the latter place.
2 CONT 
2 CONT About 1683 he married Volkje Veeder, daughter of Symon Volkertse Veede
2 CONC r, of Schenectady.
2 CONT 
2 CONT By some miraculous means, neither he nor any members of his family suf
2 CONC fered death or capture at the time of the famous massacre of Schenecta
2 CONC dy, February 9, 1689/90, so far as the records show, but his mother an
2 CONC d step-father were both killed and as the left considerable real and p
2 CONC ersonal property, he appears as on their heirs in a division of thei
2 CONC r estate made February 26, 1689/90, having one third of their entire p
2 CONC roperty settled upon him according to the terms of that contract (se
2 CONC e document No. 41).
2 CONT 
2 CONT This manner of settlement was never carried out, because the heirs o
2 CONC f Van Velsen learned he had left the Dutch Reformed Church of Schenect
2 CONC ady some of his property by will, but being unable to find the will an
2 CONC d not knowing the terms thereof, yet not desiring that the Church shou
2 CONC ld be a loser, they conveyed the corn-mill and a large plot of groun
2 CONC d to the Chruch, April 15, 1696 (see document No. 43), and Barent i
2 CONC s a party to the conveyance as one of the heirs.

2 CONC ada to fight the enemy.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Nearly about the swamps I met Captain Sanders Glen on his way to Alba
2 CONC ny, because the greatest number returned. The aforesaid Sanders had ha
2 CONC d in his company 28 whites and 5 savages and came from Tsinondrosie wh
2 CONC ere Captain Sanders had been waiting 8 days for the whole corps.  --
2 CONC - From these Captain John Schuyler enlisted 13 whites and 5 savages t
2 CONC o continue with Captain Schuyler the voyage to Canida and there to fig
2 CONC ht their mutual enemy. When the rest of the company had left is and w
2 CONC e had advanced nearly two hours on our voyage, we found 2 canoes whic
2 CONC h had been sent out to spy and which had shot an elk. ---
2 CONT After we had done eating and had supplied our canoes we proceeded on o
2 CONC ur way as far as Conaghsionie. ----
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 15th of August we had advanced as far as Kanondoro and resolved a
2 CONC t that place to travel by night and have that night gone forward to ne
2 CONC ar the spot where Amrosis Corlaer is drownd, and there one of our sava
2 CONC ges fell in convulsions, charmed and conjured by the devil, and said t
2 CONC hat a great battle had taken place at Quebeck and that much heavy cann
2 CONC on with savages had come down the river form Cadaraquie. And about a
2 CONC n hour after sunrise we have gone to Oghraro, where I placed the firs
2 CONC t guard and nominated Barent Wemp as officer of the guard.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 17th in the evening we proceeded to Ogharonde. A Tsenondoga savag
2 CONC e of our Company died there; he died of sickness; the Oneida savages g
2 CONC ave a wampum belt for the atonement of the dead. That day Capt. Schuyl
2 CONC er with his subaltern officers and the Chief of the savages resolved w
2 CONC here they should make their attack upon the enemy, and they determine
2 CONC d by the majorities to fall upon fort La Prairie; whereupon the Mohawk
2 CONC s gave a wampum belt to the Schaghkock savages as a token to stand b
2 CONC y each other faithfully, and what they do call Pnroghaquasa In a Goer
2 CONC a, The Oneida savages did the same to the Mohawk savages by some hand
2 CONC ful of wampum, and in this manner this resolution was decidedly agree
2 CONC d upon and confirmed with shaking of hands as well by the Christians a
2 CONC s by the savages and, moreover, approved by the savages as to whom sho
2 CONC uld be their chiefs or headman, ---- Carristasio and Tehoesequatho an
2 CONC d Juriaen the Ferocious.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 18th, set out in the evening, and about midnight we saw a light f
2 CONC all down from out the sky to the south, of which we were all perplexe
2 CONC d what token this might be.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 19th on account of the strong wind we laid still because we coul
2 CONC d not proceed and  were laying about 3 miles above the sandbank of Cha
2 CONC mbly.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 20th we sent out spies along the west side of the river Chambly a
2 CONC nd found there a drawing of a party from Canada and 14 palisades to wh
2 CONC ich they had bound their prisoners whom they had fetched from New Engl
2 CONC and.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 21st we proceeded to about one mile below the above mentioned san
2 CONC dbank of Chambly, when we again sent out spies, who discovered some pl
2 CONC aces where French and savage spies had been keeping double night watch
2 CONC , and that the same had embarked for Chambly. Then, after having firs
2 CONC t placed our canoes and provisions in safety,
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 22nd we pursued our journey by land and travelled that day clos
2 CONC e under La Prairie --- the road being very difficult on account of th
2 CONC e softness of the clay, over which we had to travel, so that two of ou
2 CONC r Christians returned to our canoes. Coming through the clay we hear
2 CONC d much firing of musketry, of which we were astonished what it might b
2 CONC e.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 23rd in the morning I sent spies towards the fort to see how it w
2 CONC as; returning said all the folks were leaving the fort of La Prairie t
2 CONC o cut corn. --- Then we resolved in what manner we should hinder the
2 CONC m to obtain the fort again, and agreed to do so by intercepting them o
2 CONC n their way to the fort, but by eagerness of the young savages such wa
2 CONC s prevented, because Christians as well as savages fell on with a wa
2 CONC r cry which displeased the officer that they fell on without orders ha
2 CONC ving been given, but they made 19 prisoners and 6 scalps, among whic
2 CONC h were 4 womenfolk. The first prisoner was examined, asking him, wha
2 CONC t the firing of yesterday at La Prairie signified? Said, the Governo
2 CONC r is yesterday gone away with 800 men and the people discharged thei
2 CONC r muskets a their departure because their scouts had not heard from us
2 CONC . Then we fell upon their cattle, we pierced and shot to death nearl
2 CONC y 150 head of oxen and cows, and then we set fire to all their house
2 CONC s and barns which we found in the fields, their hay, and everything el
2 CONC se which would take fire. --- Then we Christians resolved to fall upo
2 CONC n the fort, but could not move the savages to give their consent to he
2 CONC lp us to attack the fort; the fort fired alarms when Montryal and Cham
2 CONC be' and answered, so that we resolved to depart with the prisoners t
2 CONC o Albany. A savage of ours was stabbed to death, whom we burned in a b
2 CONC arn, and we went that day 7 Dutch miles on our way back. Then the sava
2 CONC ges killed 2 French prisoners because they could not travel on accoun
2 CONC t of their wounds. --- A little while after tis we sat down to eat an
2 CONC d thanked the Governor of Canada for his salute of heavy cannon durin
2 CONC g our meal --- They fired form the morning till 2 o'clock in the after
2 CONC noon form all three of the forts --- That day we traveled to the rive
2 CONC r Chambly where our canoes were laying.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 24th we went as far as fort Lamotte.
2 CONT The 25th we reached the Sand point, where we shot 2 elks.
2 CONT The 26th we came to the little stone fort, and from there sent a cano
2 CONC e with men to Albany to bring the news of what had happened to us.
2 CONT The 27th we proceeded to Canaghsione and her shot 9 elks.
2 CONT The 28th we reached Wood Creek.
2 CONT The 29th we have travelled to the little rapid above Saraghtoge.
2 CONT The 30th of August we have arrived in Albany, under the command of Ca

2 CONT 
2 CONT On August 27, 1757, he was appointed second lieutenant of the 3rd comp

2 CONT 
2 CONT During the Revolutionary War he was Colonel of the Schenectady Divisio

2 CONT 
2 CONT When General George Washington paid a visit to Schenectady June 30, 17

2 CONC t the table were the most distinguished people of the vicinity, amon

2 CONT 
2 CONT Of the Schenectady militia who had marched under Colonel Wemple on th
2 CONC e first alarm some were almost immediately obliged to return for wan
2 CONC t of provisions. The remainder, however, hastened towards Johnstown an
2 CONC d, joined by troops from Fort Hunter under Colonel Harper and others u
2 CONC nder Colonel Volkert Vedder, (11) swelling their force to about four h
2 CONC undred and fifty men, determined to engage the enemy should Sir John
2 CONC , who had rendezvoused there, show any disposition to fight. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sir John, although his force, swelled by the addition of many Tories w
2 CONC ho had hastened to join him, now outnumbered the American troops abou
2 CONC t two to one, did not offer an engagement, but almost immediately with
2 CONC drew and, eluding the troops which Governor Clinton sent to intercep
2 CONC t him, made his way safely back to Canada. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The opportunity afforded by the dispirited condition of soldiers and s
2 CONC ettlers alike had early been seized upon by the British, who with no s
2 CONC mall success endeavored through their emissaries to stir up mutinies i
2 CONC n the ranks of the main army or induce those holding Tory sentiments t
2 CONC o take up arms in their behalf. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Many Tories had joined Sir John Johnson during his raid, and from tim
2 CONC e to time small bands from Albany and Tryon counties left to join th
2 CONC e enemy. That a large party so inclined were assembled at Beaverdam wa
2 CONC s reported to the Schenectady Committee on July 18. Colonel Vrooman a
2 CONC t Schoharie was at once apprised of the fact that he might order ou
2 CONC t a detachment in an endeavor to intercept them, while in Schenectad
2 CONC y a party was at once organized for the same purpose. Although the Sch
2 CONC enectady detachment after having marched all night arrived at the rend
2 CONC ezvous at daybreak, they were successful in securing but three of th
2 CONC e band who had secreted themselves in a barn, while the main body, hav
2 CONC ing undoubtedly been alarmed, succeeded in making their escape. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Late in July the enemy under Joseph Brant appeared in force before For
2 CONC t Schuyler. This movement was probably a feint, for while the troops w
2 CONC ere hastening to the defense of the post, leaving the lower valley wit
2 CONC hout adequate means of protection, Brant and his followers quietly wit
2 CONC hdrew and, advancing by way of the Unadilla and Susquehanna Rivers o
2 CONC n August 2, fell upon Canajoharie. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Albany and Schenectady militia, who had turned out with alacrit
2 CONC y  under orders previously given, had just gone into camp at Caughnawa
2 CONC ga opposite Mr. Frey's at about eleven o'clock on the morning of the s
2 CONC econd, when they were alarmed by the heavy smoke between John Abeail
2 CONC s and Fort Plank about four miles distant. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Instantly I did order both Regiments to be formed, reported  Colone
2 CONC l Wemple in his dispatch to General Ten Broeck, & proceed against th
2 CONC e Enemy, who were at that time in their full Carear and tho our Number
2 CONC s were not equal, yet I can assure you I should be void of Justice i
2 CONC f I omitted mentioning their Prudence and cool behavior without Distin

2 CONC y in the morning they came up with such Vigor that the Enemy on our ap

2 CONC ed this man before.  He was in years past employed as a blacksmith fo
2 CONC r the Indians in this principal town of the Senecas, called Kanadasige
2 CONC a, and sometimes traded among them.  He understands their language pre
2 CONC tty well, for common conversation, but can but poorly comprehend a pub
2 CONC lic speech, delivered in an oratorical style and dress.  Being of Dutc
2 CONC h extraction, he speaks rather broken and incorrect English, and in ge
2 CONC neral, a bad pronunciation of the Seneca.  But being a humane, peaceab
2 CONC le, and honest man, I find the Indians set a great deal by him.  I sha
2 CONC ll endeavor to detain him when he arrives, as long as will be consiste
2 CONC nt with his business, and we find anything for him to eat.
2 CONT 
2 CONT April 4th.  Mr. Wemp returns from Niagara, made very welcome, particul
2 CONC arly by my family and many others.  I expressed my earnest desire, an
2 CONC d hoped that he would tarry a week, or at least several days with us
2 CONC , to rest himself properly.  Had but little conversation with hi

2 CONT HENDRICK WEMPLE
2 CONT 
2 CONT (From Manuscripts of W.H.C. Hosmer)
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was the father of Mrs. Maria Berry, wife of the late Gilbert R. Ber
2 CONC ry, pioneer Indian trader, and settler in the valley of the Genesee. I
2 CONC n advance of civilization, this remarkable man, frequently visited th
2 CONC e Indian villages of western New York - and sometimes extended his jou
2 CONC rneys by water, in a birch canoe, manned by Indians, to Detroit, and t
2 CONC hence to Mackinaw and the Straits of St. Mary's. His place of residenc
2 CONC e was near Caughnawaga, on the Mohawk, at the breaking out of hostilit
2 CONC ies. He afterwards removed to the Oneida Castle.
2 CONT 
2 CONT John Scott Quackenboss, a kinsman, and who knew him in his boyhood, de
2 CONC scribes him as a man of majestic proportions, more than six feet in he
2 CONC ight, and endowed by nature with great personal strength and agility
2 CONC . His influence was great among the Oneidas and Mohawks, being familia
2 CONC r with the customs, and their superior(ity) in all athletic sports. H
2 CONC e accompanied by special invitation, General Herkimer and party, in th
2 CONC eir perilous expedition to Unadilla in 1777, and acted as interprete
2 CONC r at an interview between Brant and the gallant old Germans, on that o
2 CONC ccasion. He was also interpreter for Sullivan, and in that capacity se
2 CONC rved in the great Indian campaign of 1779, accompanying the army in th
2 CONC eir march through a howling wilderness, and hostile country, to the va
2 CONC lley of the Genesee, where his daughter and son-in-law consequently se
2 CONC ttled and died. My informant, Mr. Scott, of Mohawk, in Montgomery coun
2 CONC ty, alluded particularly to his skill as a marksman, having been his c
2 CONC ompanion in many a hunt. He also spoke with great fluency, all the dia
2 CONC lects of the Iroquois, besides having a knowledge of many western tong
2 CONC ues.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Soon after the close of the Revolutionary war, while in a forest tha
2 CONC t bordered the Mohawk, he was the unseen spectator of a murder, perpet
2 CONC uated by a Mohawk know as Saucy Nick - the victim being unconscious a
2 CONC t the time he received the fatal blow, of an enemy being in the neighb
2 CONC orhood. After he returned to his home, he saddled a horse of the purpo
2 CONC se of procuring process of the Indian's arrest. On his way to the magi
2 CONC strate's office, a few miles distant - he stopped at a public house, o
2 CONC bserving Saucy Nick standing on the steps, and wishing  a close watc
2 CONC h to be kept on the murderer's movements. After the necessary warnin
2 CONC g had been given, he was about to to leave, when Saucy Nick importune
2 CONC d him to treat, and insisted that Mr. Wemple should drink with him.
2 CONT 
2 CONT To lull the Indian's suspicions, which he thought had been forcibly ar
2 CONC oused, he drank with him, and mounted his horse; he had been in the sa
2 CONC ddle but a few minutes, when he was attacked  with a severe pain, an
2 CONC d a sense of of mortal sickness. With difficulty he dismounted and wa
2 CONC s assisted to a bed. He tongue swelled until to protruded from his mou
2 CONC th, and the next day, after indescribable agony, he died.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It was generally believed by his neighbors and friends, that the India
2 CONC n had had secret intelligence of the design to arrest him, and adroitl
2 CONC y drugged, with some subtle poison, the liquor of this unsuspecting vi
2 CONC ctim. The murderer effected his escape, and joined his tribe in Canada
2 CONC . Hendrick Wemple was buried close to Oneida Castle, on the north sid
2 CONC e of the turnpike, about one mile from Skenandoah's residence.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In his lifetime, he claimed a large portion of territory, afterwards b
2 CONC ought by Judge Cooper, of Coopertown, and embracing some of the best l
2 CONC ands of Otsego county. He was a descendant of Hendrick Wemple, one o
2 CONC f the original proprietors of Schenectady - the O-no-al-i-gone of th
2 CONC e Oneidas - and whose ares, Giles F. Yates informs me, may still be se
2 CONC en over the door of an old Dutch church, one of the most cherished ant
2 CONC iquities of the city. He name in no tout of place in the local work.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was a transit resident in this region previous to the Revolution, a
2 CONC nd many of his descendants are now residents of the Genesee Country.

2 CONT 
2 CONT On April 29th and May 22, 1765, he attended a conference with the Si

2 CONT 
2 CONT Barent very early became an inhabitant of the Mohawk Valley, settlin

2 CONC s a man of wealth. influence and respectability, and at the beginnin
2 CONC g of colonial difficulties, had the most flattering inducements offere
2 CONC d him to side with royalty, which he promptly rejected.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Margaret Fonda Wemple was one of the sturdy and noted characters of th
2 CONC e Mohawk Valley about whom many stories and anecdotes are related of h
2 CONC er absolute fearlessness of danger and unwavering loyalty to her count
2 CONC ry.
2 CONT 
2 CONT For many years after the death of her husband, in 1771, she kept a tav
2 CONC ern, as it was in those days called, where the house of Geo. G. Mill
2 CONC s now stands in the upper part of the present village of Fonda, and al
2 CONC so operated a grist-mill a short distance away, with the assistance o
2 CONC f her sons. During the awful raid by Sir John Johnson on the Caughnawa

2 CONC e now lives, at which place she them kept a public house, the enemy ma
2 CONC king he son Mina,  prisoner, locked her up in her own dwelling and se
2 CONC t it on fire. From an upper window, she made the valley echo to her cr
2 CONC ies of 'Murder' and Help', which brought someone to her relief. He vo
2 CONC ice arrested the attention of John Fonda, who sent one of his slaves r
2 CONC ound the knoll which formerly stood west of the Fonda Hotel, to lear
2 CONC n the cause of the alarm; but hardly had the slave returned, before th
2 CONC e enemy's advance from both parties was there also, making Fonda a pri
2 CONC soner and burning his dwelling.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He father, Douw Fonda, was murdered at this time by an Indian named On
2 CONC e Armed Peter, to  whom he had often shown much kindness. His house wa
2 CONC s situated on the eastern half of the Montgomery County Agricultural S

1 NOTE He (Barnabas Wemp) was baptized in Schenectady, N.Y., September 3, 173
2 CONC 8 (as Barent Wemple).  His sister, Jannetje, mentions him in her wil
2 CONC l as her eldest brother, devising to him five shillings, and in descri
2 CONC bing a piece of land which she left to her aunt.  She describes it a
2 CONC s being bounded on the East by land belonging to her brothers, Baren
2 CONC t and Arent. It is supposed that he lived a short distance from Schene
2 CONC ctady city on the road to Niskayuna but possibly his home lot is now i
2 CONC ncluded in the present city limits.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In the muster roll of Captain Daniel Campbell's Schenectady Company, r
2 CONC eturned May 1, 1967, and preserved in volume 14, page 209, of Sir Wm
2 CONC . Johnson Manuscripts, in the State Library, Albany, N.Y., he is list
2 CONC ed as a private in the company.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was a private in the First Regiment of the Line, during part of th
2 CONC e Revolutionary War, under Col. G. Van Schaick.  (See copy of letter f
2 CONC rom Record and Pension Office, Washington, D.C. attached).
2 CONT 
2 CONT During the latter part of the Revolutionary War he became a Loyalist,
2 CONC  and fled from the Mohawk Valley to Canada, leaving behind land and o
2 CONC ther property.  About 1840, his sons, John and William, visited the Mo
2 CONC hawk Valley for the purpose of securing the property left by their fat
2 CONC her upon his removal to Canada, but of course they were unsuccessful.
2 CONT 
2 CONT His grandchildren remember well the stories related time and time agai
2 CONC n by his wife, how on leaving New York State, they went to Niagara, cr
2 CONC ossed over to what was then known as Little York, now the city of Toro
2 CONC nto. From there they went in bateaux, a sort of rowboat used then, t
2 CONC o Kingston, at the port of the Bay of Quintie, and from there went t
2 CONC o the Isle of Tantie, as at that time called, but now known as Amhers
2 CONC t Island. Here they made their permanent home and are buried on thei
2 CONC r own farm.

2 CONT In a book entitled THE CENTENNIAL OF THE SETTLEMENT OF UPPER CANADA B
2 CONC Y THE UNITED EMPIRE OF LOYALISTS, 1784-1884, published by the Centenni
2 CONC al Committee and printed, 1885, by Rose Publishing Co., Toronto, i
2 CONC s a copy of the original 'Old United Empire List' preserved in the Cro
2 CONC wn Land Department at Toronto, which states that Barabas Wemp (Wimpel
2 CONC ), residence Kingston, soldier in Col. Guy Johnson's Forresters (Owe
2 CONC n Robbin's affidavit, 1807).  Land Board of Mechlenburg, 1791.  G.H.
2 CONC , 1785-100.  Provision List of Kingston say he belonged to Royal Regim
2 CONC ent of New York in 1786.  (Stamped Book.)
2 CONT 
2 CONT It will be noticed, by referring to the letter from Record and Pensio
2 CONC n Office, that he was called 'Wemp' on all the rolls of Col. Van Schai
2 CONC ck's regiment in the Revolution, showing that he was so called durin
2 CONC g his residence in New York State.  This short form of the name is sti
2 CONC ll retained by all his descendants to the present day.  The fact tha
2 CONC t his correct name was 'Wemple' is shown by the insertion in parenthes
2 CONC is of the English form 'Wimpel,' after the name 'Wemp' in the Old Unit
2 CONC ed Empire List.  Further proof of this is also contained in the 'Regis
2 CONC ter of Baptisms for the Township of Fredericksburgh' in the baptisma
2 CONC l record of one of his children, as follows: 'Mary, daughter of Barnab
2 CONC as and Katreen Wemple, of Marysburgh, June 12, 1791.'  The other bapti

2 CONT Dear Sir:
2 CONT 
2 CONT In reply to your letter of the 20th instant, received this morning, i
2 CONC n which you request to be furnished with a statement of the record o

2 CONC le, a private of Colonel Wyncoop's Regiment, also similar informatio
2 CONC n relative to Barent Wemp, a private of Colonel Van Schaick's Regiment
2 CONC , I beg to advise you as follows:
2 CONT 
2 CONT The records on file in this office show that Barent Wemple was a membe
2 CONC r (rank not stated) of Captain Gerrit S. Veeder's Company in the Regi
2 CONC ment of Forces of the United Colonies raised in and for the defence o
2 CONC f the Colony of New York, which was commanded by Colonel Cornelius D
2 CONC . Wyncoop, Revolutionary War.  The name of the soldier appears only o
2 CONC n a company muster roll covering the period from March 1, to May 23, 1
2 CONC 776, which shows that he enlisted April 11, 1776, but affords no furth
2 CONC er information with regard to him.  No document gearing his signatur
2 CONC e has been found on file.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The name of Barent Wemp(?) (also spelled Wemple) appears as that o
2 CONC f a private in Captain John Copp's Company of the 1st Battalion of Ne
2 CONC w York Forces, Commanded by Colonel Goose Van Schaick, Revolutionary W
2 CONC ar.  His name appears on a company muster roll covering the period fro
2 CONC m November 21, 1776 to June 5, 1777, which shows that he enlisted Dece
2 CONC mber 28 (year not stated) for the period of the war.  He is reported
2 CONC , without remark, on rolls of the company up to and including the rol
2 CONC l for the month of May, 1778.  The roll for June, 1778, reports him A
2 CONC bsent without leave and supposed to be sick, and the rolls covering t
2 CONC he period from July to December, 1778, reports him as Sick at Princ
2 CONC e Town.  Later rolls up to and including that for the month of Decemb
2 CONC er, 1779, report him Sick at Trentown, June 28, 1778.  The roll fo
2 CONC r January and February, shows him as Transferred to Corps of Invalids
2 CONC .  No further record of him has been found nor has any paper bearin
2 CONC g his signature been found on the files of the office.
2 CONT With very kind regard for yourself personally, I am
2 CONT Very respectfully,
2 CONT (signed) F.C. Ainsworth
2 CONT Colonel, U.S. Army,
2 CONT Chief, Record and Pensions Office.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The name Barnabas is merely the English form of the Holland Dutch give
2 CONC n-name Barent and was no doubt more familiar to those living in Canada
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was married, December 11, 1779, to Caterine Gates, who died Augus
2 CONC t 27,1843. Her father's name was probably Michael Gates, but this ha
2 CONC s not yet been verified.  They both died in the same year, as the foll
2 CONC owing records, found by Rev. James Cumberland, Stella, Ont., in the ol
2 CONC d Register of the Anglican Church there will show: Catherine Wemp, U.
2 CONC E. Loyalist, date of interment August 29th, 1843; Barnabas Wemp, U.E
2 CONC . Loyalist, date of interment December 27th, 1843; both at McDonald's.
2 CONC  Mr. Cumberland says this is the little plat where the son-in-law, Mc
2 CONC Donald, had buried one or two of his family where the Cairn with Cros
2 CONC s now stands.  He says he thinks her designation as U.E. Loyalist i
2 CONC s presumptive evidence that she came with him to Canada from the colon

2 CONT FAMILY HISTORY RECOGNIZED
2 CONT BARENT AND CATHERINE WEMP AMONG EARLY LOYALIST SETTLERS
2 CONT 
2 CONT By Herb Wemp
2 CONT Special to the Beaver (hand written article, 1995)
2 CONT 
2 CONT Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! Saturday, July 29 in fine town-crier fashion, the ce
2 CONC remonies started with the ringing of the crier's bell and the gatherin
2 CONC g of about 150 people around the plaque to be dedicated to the memor
2 CONC y of loyalist settlers Barent and Catherine Wemp.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Most of those attending were descendants of the loyalist settlers.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Two Kings Royal Regiment soldiers in period uniform (John Wannamaker a
2 CONC nd L. W. Joyner) stood at attention on either side of the plaque whic
2 CONC h was veiled with The British Union Jack. The Town Crier (David McKe
2 CONC e from Brantford and also a Wemp descendant gave an inspiring introduc
2 CONC tion to the unveiling.
2 CONT 
2 CONT All true to the memory of King George III and to his loyal subjects
2 CONC , hear ye now this proclamation: Whereas, United Empire Loyalists Bare
2 CONC nt and Catherine Wemp endured the hardships on the American Revolution
2 CONC ary War and began a new life in the wilderness of this very island 21
2 CONC 1 years ago. And whereas, if it were not for their will to survive, w
2 CONC e would not be standing here today.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Now therefore, it is my pleasureful duty to to proclaim the unveilin
2 CONC g of this plaque upon this site in memory of our ancestry, Barent an
2 CONC d Catherine Wemp. May this plaque remind us and our descendants of th
2 CONC e heritage that caused our family and many other loyalist families t
2 CONC o carve and build a strong, united Canada. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT This proclamation carried this 29th day of July in the year of our Lo
2 CONC rd, 1995. God bless Canada, God save the Queen.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The plaque was unveiled by Leigh Wemp, organizer of the ceremonies an
2 CONC d his son, Herb, author of the text. The plaque was then read by the t
2 CONC own crier.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The American Revolutionary War was the setting of their courtship an
2 CONC d marriage. Barent was a soldier of foot in Colonel Guy Johnson's Loya
2 CONC l Foresters. As the war was drawing to a conclusion Barent and Catheri
2 CONC ne remained loyal to the crown of England. They had to flee their hom
2 CONC e in the Mohawk Valley leaving everything they owned behind. They wer
2 CONC e with the Captain Mike Grass company at Camp Catariqui in the fall o
2 CONC f 1794. In the late winter of 1785, while Barent was monitoring rebe
2 CONC l movements, south of Lake Ontario, Catherine gave birth to their firs
2 CONC t child, John, who became known as the first child born in the new loy
2 CONC alist community. Barent was enlisted in the King's Royal Regiment in 1
2 CONC 786. By 1803 they settled here on Amherst Island on a 200-acre parce
2 CONC l of land. They raised seven children from whom some of today's islan
2 CONC d residents are descended. Barent and Catherine both died here on th
2 CONC e site of their family farm.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Erected July 1995 by the descendants of Barent and Catherine with th
2 CONC e assistance of the Ontario Heritage Foundation and the Kingston and D
2 CONC istrict Branch of the United Empire Loyalists Association of Canada.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Amherst Island reeve Duncan Ashley recalled some personal encounters w
2 CONC ith members of the Wemp family. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He congratulated Leigh for organizing the day and told him he should b
2 CONC e pleased with what he had done.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The ceremonies then moved to the Cairn as it is known. A large monumen
2 CONC t of stones topped with a wooden cross on a small rise along the fenc
2 CONC e line some distance from the road. The monument is enclosed with an i
2 CONC ron chain and post in each of the four corners.
2 CONT 
2 CONT With the regiment soldiers on either side of the Cairn, the town crie
2 CONC r lead everyone in Canada's National Anthem. The minister Christophe
2 CONC r Davis lead everyone in prayer. As the ceremonies came to an end, th
2 CONC e two regiment soldiers raised their rifles and shot into the sky to t
2 CONC he surprise of everyone there.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Some in attendance were Ryan Henderson from Igaluit, N.W.T., Maureen T
2 CONC asker from Winsloe, P.E.I., Jack and Peggy Wemp from Clinton Corners
2 CONC , NY, Keith Derek and J. Nelson Wemp from Kelowna, B.C., Liz McKee fro
2 CONC m Whitehorse, Yukon, Tom and Jan Spowart from Madison, WI. Also in att
2 CONC endance were Peter Aykroyd and his sister Judy Aykroyd Harvie.
2 CONT 
2 CONT More attended the dinner and dance held at the school on the island th
2 CONC at night.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The dinner was put on by ACW and music provided by the Hallman's. Extr
2 CONC a entertainment was provided when the town crier and his brother (Dav
2 CONC e and Bill McKee) sang a duo.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Leigh and Herb would like to thank Sharon Sands, Betty Ennis, Joyce Ti
2 CONC tley and Doris Wemp who were involved from the beginning as the WFGF
2 CONC . Thanks to Cathy Richards for donating the gifts to hand out.
2 CONT

2 CONT Edd Wemple of Eugene, a driving force behind the formation of the Emer
2 CONC ald People's Utility District and the Hoedads Inc. worker-owned cooper
2 CONC ative, was found dead at his home Wednesday morning.  He was 37.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The cause and time of death were unknown pending results of an autopsy
2 CONC , friends of the Wemple family said Wednesday.  Funeral arrangements h
2 CONC adn't been made by late Wednesday.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Longtime friends said they were shocked by news of Wemple's death.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I was devastated at the loss of a close friend and associate, said L
2 CONC ane County Commissioner Jerry Rust, who worked with Wemple in the Hoed
2 CONC ads, a cooperative that bids and negotiates for tree-planting, thinnin
2 CONC g, firefighting, trail building and other forestry-related jobs for it
2 CONC smembers.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple was secretary of the group from 1972-73 and president in 1974.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was intense and yet he was gentle, Rust said.  He was sure one t
2 CONC o have on your side when you were in tough situations.  I planted thou
2 CONC sands and thousands of trees beside him and my tribute to him is I don
2 CONC 't think he ever planted a bad tree; he was so conscientious.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple, a mountainous person in both physical stature and energy, wa
2 CONC s a founding member of the Emerald People's Utility District Board.  H
2 CONC e held a seat on the board from the inception of the utility in 1978 u
2 CONC ntil he was defeated in 1984 by Doug Still.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After leaving the EPUD Board, Wemple spent time working on timber trad
2 CONC e between Oregon and China.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He worked creatively and diligently to bring Emerald into fruition a
2 CONC s a citizen-mandated, citizen-controlled utility, Still said.  He ga
2 CONC ve sacrificially of his time and energies and resources to make Emeral
2 CONC d a reality.  This type of commitment and service-oriented perspectiv
2 CONC e was typical of his whole life.  Working with and beside Edd was an i
2 CONC nspiration and a challenge to everyone.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple was actively involved in public power issues before and after h
2 CONC is service with EPUD.  He was interested in alternative energy, such a
2 CONC s small hydroelectric plants, wind generation and solar power, and esp
2 CONC ecially in energy that incorporated ecologically appropriate technolog
2 CONC y.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple was a fiery member of the EPUD Board, freely and sometimes bull
2 CONC ishly stating his opinions, said board Chairman Ron Davis.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The amazing thing about Edd is that he was like a comet - no matter w
2 CONC here he went, he left a trail,
2 CONT Davis said.  You knew he'd been there. You knew when Edd was at a mee
2 CONC ting.  He lived his life very passionately. He was a unique person i
2 CONC n this time because he was a person driven almost totally by principl
2 CONC e and had very little concern for monetary gain.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Davis and Wemple were among a threesome that pushed legislation legali
2 CONC zing compost toilets in the state in the late 1970's.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple was born Nov. 30, 1948, in Sacramento, California  He moved t
2 CONC o Oregon
2 CONT in 1966 and graduated from the University of Oregon in 1971 with a bac
2 CONC helor's degree in political science.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After graduating, Wemple owned and managed 320 acres of timberland nea

2 CONT EVENING OUTING ENDED IN AG LEADER'S DEATH
2 CONT 
2 CONT QUINCY -- An after dusk snowmobile outing of family and friends in th
2 CONC e Plumas County high country lead to the death of local ranch manage
2 CONC r Don Heffren, the California Highway Patrol in Quincy reported.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A Plumas County sheriff's sergeant pronounced Heffren, 50, dead at th
2 CONC e scene of the 5:45 p.m. Sunday accident of a U.S. Forest Service roa
2 CONC d near Buck's Lake, which is dedicated to winter use as a snowmobile t
2 CONC rail.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Heffren, riding solo, rounded a curve in the 12- to 15-foot wide trai
2 CONC l and struck a tree stump withe the right skid of the machine, CHP off
2 CONC icer James Stowe said.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Heffren catapulted from the snowmobile into a tree. According to Pluma
2 CONC s County Sheriff-Coroner Len Gardner, Heffern possible suffered a bro
2 CONC ken neck.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The rancher was wearing a helmet and full face mask at he time of th
2 CONC e accident, the CHP reported.
2 CONT 
2 CONT My preliminary finding is the snowmobile was traveling too fast for c
2 CONC onditions, Stowe said. Drivers of off-road vehicles are under the sa
2 CONC me obligation as drivers of motor vehicles to operate their vehicles i
2 CONC n a safe manner, he added.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Heffern was probably traveling between 40 and 50 mph when the snowmobi
2 CONC le hit the stump and crashed. That speed estimate was based on intervi
2 CONC ews with John Shepherd, a Heffren friend, and other members of the ill
2 CONC -fated snowmobiling party.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It appeared the group was returning to the Heffren family cabin at Buc
2 CONC k's Lake about ten miles west of Quincy, he added.
2 CONT 
2 CONT According to the officer, Heffren's party had departed from the cabi
2 CONC n late in the day to take the trail, known by locals as Summit Road, t
2 CONC o a remote overlook above the lake.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT They said they had gone up there to look at the Chico and Oroville ci
2 CONC ty lights. They intended to be out after dark, Stowe said.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He said the well-used snowmobile trail lacked fresh snow and was cover
2 CONC ed with a foot-thick pack of snow and some ice.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There were no direct witnesses to the accident.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Either Shepherd or Heffren's son, Frank, came around the curve a few s
2 CONC econds after the crash and found the fatally injured rancher next to t
2 CONC he tree with the snowmobile off to the side.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Apparently the snowmobile drifted to the east edge of the trail wher
2 CONC e the skid plunged into a partially rotted stump sticking about one fo
2 CONC ot to 18 inches above the ground, Stowe reported.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Gardner, the Plumas County Sheriff, said Frank Heffren performed cardi
2 CONC opulmonary resuscitation of 15 or 20 minutes in an unsuccessful effor
2 CONC t to revive his father. He reportedly failed to get any response.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Members of the snowmobile party finally make it to a telephone and con
2 CONC tacted the sheriff's office at 6:46 p.m., about one hour after the acc
2 CONC ident.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sheriff's Sgt. Thomas Mareina traveled to the scene on a snowmobile an
2 CONC d pronounced Heffren dead.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Stowe said Heffren was regarded as an experienced snowmobile operator
2 CONC . He said the machine was legally registered and in good working condi
2 CONC tion, including its headlight.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After authorities released the snowmobile, it was started immediatel
2 CONC y by a friend or family member and driven away.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Though darkness had settled over the mountain, the weather was clear a
2 CONC nd visibility was good, Stowe said.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Gardner said an autopsy will be performed 'soon' to determine with exa
2 CONC ct cause of death.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Plumas County does not have a full-time or contract pathologist whic
2 CONC h forces the county to send death victims to Reno for post mortem exam
2 CONC ination. Heffren's blood will be sampled for the presence of drugs o
2 CONC r alcohol, which is standard protocol at autopsies.
2 CONT 
2 CONT CHP officer Stowe said he was told alcohol was consumed on the vista p
2 CONC oint; however, he does not suspect Heffren was intoxicated at the tim
2 CONC e of the crash.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A memorial service will be held at 3 p.m. Thursday in the Commercial B
2 CONC uilding of the Silver Dollar Fairgrounds.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Compiler's Note: My wife and I attended this funeral, and it was, by f
2 CONC ar, the largest funeral we have ever attended. A good guess would cons
2 CONC ervatively put the number conservatively in attendance at over 1,000 p
2 CONC ersons. DRW

2 CONT MONUMENT AT PARK HONORS DON HEFFREN
2 CONT by Jamie Trump, staff writer
2 CONT 
2 CONT Many people remember Don Heffren being highly involved with Chico's yo
2 CONC uth sports. And now, the new field at Community Park will serve as a r
2 CONC eminder.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A memorial to Don Heffren was dedicated Saturday at the park off 20t
2 CONC h Street. Nearly a hundred of his friends, family and community reside
2 CONC nts gathered to remember his life and watch as the Chico Area Recreati
2 CONC on and Park District named six acres of new parkland after him.
2 CONT 
2 CONT CARD general manager Bill Kehoe and director Andy Holcombe unveile
2 CONC d a 7-foot-tall monument marking Don Heffren Field, For his active su
2 CONC pport and dedication to Chico's youth sports.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Only 50-year-old, Heffren was killed in a snowmobile accident near Buc
2 CONC k's Lake in December 1999. He not only volunteered with Butte United S
2 CONC occer and the Chico Youth Soccer League, but also did volunteer work o
2 CONC n parks in the area, Kehoe said. He did the rough grading on the fiel
2 CONC d named for him.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was really involved,  said Kehoe. We see him as a person who rea
2 CONC lly helped out. He really helped in youth soccer. (His death) is a lar
2 CONC ge loss to the community.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Chico Youth Soccer League representative Fred Reichel said that althou
2 CONC gh naming the field was a great way to remember Heffren, the young kid
2 CONC s playing soccer at the park are what Heffren should really be remembe
2 CONC red by.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The memorial's not completely done. Because of rain delay, the brick f
2 CONC acing was not finished.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Kehoe said 12 or 15 different organizations and people that donated mo
2 CONC ney to help set up the park - including the Chico Youth Soccer Leagu
2 CONC e which donated $15,000 last year - will have their names engraved o
2 CONC n one of the bricks used.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The memorial should be completed next week.
2 CONT 
2 CONT We're willing to take as many donations as we can, said Kehoe. He w
2 CONC as a very special person.
2 CONT 
2 CONT To finish the dedication, Heffren's youngest son (Joel) kicked a socce
2 CONC r ball into the field, making at the first ball in the official Don He
2 CONC ffren Field.

2 CONC ear - each showing 2 steers apiece. It was Ryan's 3rd year and Reggie'
2 CONC s 1rst year and both boys did real well. But this year Reggie was th
2 CONC e bread winner. He took top honors with his steer Slap-Jack (GRAND CHA
2 CONC MPION). I believe this is a first for the Wemple family here in Lasse
2 CONC n County. His steer weighed 1190 lbs and the Mallery family from the n
2 CONC ew ST Francis Champion Steak House bought his steer for $8.00/lb. We w
2 CONC ere all very excited about his beginners luck ( Reg worked real hard w

2 CONT 
2 CONT FRANCIS HOLLAND WEMPLE
2 CONT by Ensley Moore, November 16, 1921
2 CONT 
2 CONT Francis Holland Wemple, of Waverly, was one of the fine men of this co
2 CONC unty.  He was born near Amsterdam, N.Y., August 27, 1840, a son of Jac
2 CONC ob Anthony and Delia Vissher Wemple. Both of his parents were of Dutc
2 CONC h descent, and representatives of two of the oldest families of the hi
2 CONC storic Mohawk Valley.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The founder of the Wemple family in America was Jan Barentsen Wemp (o
2 CONC r Wamp) who came from Holland about 1640 and became on of the prominen
2 CONC t members of the colony which settled in the manor of Rensslaerwyck i
2 CONC n Hudson Valley soon after, the name first appearing in the annals o
2 CONC f the city of Schenectady, N.Y.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jacob A. Wemple brought his family to Illinois in 1841, locating o
2 CONC n a farm situated about three miles southeast of Waverly in Sangamon C
2 CONC ounty. There practically all the remainder of the life of the elder We
2 CONC mple was spent.  He became the owner of about 400 acres of farming lan
2 CONC d, led a quiet, unostentatious life, was deeply interested in the welf
2 CONC are of the early schools, and was active in the promotion of the Metho
2 CONC dist Episcopal Church.  He died in October, 1887 and his wife passed a
2 CONC way in 1885.  The remaining children were two sons, Francis H. and Edw
2 CONC ard who were partners in the bank of Wemple Brothers.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The early life of Francis H. Wemple was spent on his father's farm i
2 CONC n Sangamon County.  His education was received in the public schools
2 CONC , at Westlyan University at Bloomington, Illinois, and he was a studen
2 CONC t at Illinois College.  After leaving school he was, for a time, in th
2 CONC e business of buying and shipping grain at Virden, Illinois.  Removin
2 CONC g to Waverly in April 1869, he engaged in general merchandising for se
2 CONC ven years as a member of the firm Crain, Manson and Wemple, which fir
2 CONC m in connection with a large general store, also operated a bank.  Dis
2 CONC posing of the interest in this concern in 1876, in the year followin
2 CONC g (1877), he and his brother established, under the firm of Wemple Bro
2 CONC thers, a private bank, now the oldest institution of the kind in Waver
2 CONC ly.  This bank was entirely independent of the one operated by Crain a
2 CONC nd Manson and Wemple in connection with their mercantile business an
2 CONC d has become recognized as one of the strongest and most reliable priv
2 CONC ate banks in Illinois.  Its basis is about 1400 acres of farming lan
2 CONC d which the Brothers owned and operated in connection with their finan
2 CONC cial institution.  In addition they occasionally bought and sold rea
2 CONC l estate.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple took an active and unselfish interest in the promotion of t
2 CONC he welfare of the community in which he lived for so long a period.  H
2 CONC e served as Mayor for several terms, and for a number of years was a m
2 CONC ember of the local school board, of which he has been president.  He a
2 CONC lso identified with the Grand Army of the Republic, having been Comman
2 CONC der and for many years Quartermaster of John W. Ross Post No. 331 of W
2 CONC averly.
2 CONT 
2 CONT His military service was in Company G, 101st Regiment, Illinois Infant
2 CONC ry in which organization he volunteered in August 1862 under Captain R
2 CONC obert McKee.  He filled the post of Corporal when mustered out.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On December 8, 1870, Mr. Wemple was united in marriage to Mary Ann Car
2 CONC ter, a daughter of Orrin Carter.  She died March 9, 1899.  They were t
2 CONC he parents of five children, two of whom are deceased.  Those survivin
2 CONC g are Charles Francis and Paul Wilbur, President and Cashier, respecti
2 CONC vely of Wemple State Bank, which institution has now succeeded Wempl
2 CONC e Brothers Bank, and William Lester, an Attorney successfully practici
2 CONC ng in New York City.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jacob A. Wemple came to Illinois from Monroe County, New York in 1841
2 CONC , traveling in a wagon and bringing with him his family consisting the
2 CONC n of his wife and their one child, F.H. Wemple, then one year old.  A
2 CONC s soon as F.H. Wemple was old enough, his parents started him to schoo
2 CONC l in Waverly and from his home he walked straight across the prairie t
2 CONC wo miles, there being no fences and nothing by which to find one's wa
2 CONC y except a path through the tall prairie grass. Part of his early scho
2 CONC ol was got in what was known as the 'Seminary,' which stood just bac
2 CONC k of ht present Congressional Church in Waverly and where, although sh
2 CONC e was younger than he, Marian Brown, afterward Mrs. Edward A. Tanner
2 CONC , was, for a short time, one of the teachers.  His early school days w
2 CONC ere not free from boyish troubles part of which came from the fact tha
2 CONC t he was of eastern parentage and birth.  This circumstance earned hi
2 CONC m the appellation of the 'Little Yankee' and added nothing to the comf
2 CONC ort of a lonely boy starting to school in strange surroundings.  As wa
2 CONC s frequently the case in those days he dropped out of school at an ear
2 CONC ly age to help on the farm.  As was also the case with many of the you
2 CONC ng men and women of that day as well as of this he later tired schoo
2 CONC l teaching and taught for two winters at the American school house nea
2 CONC r Virden, Illinois, for a year at Prospect, Illinois and for one yea
2 CONC r at Sciota near Waverly.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It is hardly necessary to tell those who knew him that he has a wonder
2 CONC ful physique.  At the time he enlisted in the Army he weighed over tw
2 CONC o hundred pounds, stood six feet, three inches tall and was in almos
2 CONC t perfect health as the result of the out of doors life and work on th
2 CONC e farm.  Few men were a match for him is strength and I have heard i
2 CONC t related of him in this connection that he was able to lift a full le
2 CONC ngth railroad iron.  He was always persistent in taking physical exerc
2 CONC ise, especially pointing out to his sons the importance of this. E.M.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Editor's (Waverly Hist. and Gene. Society) note:  Francis Holland Wemp
2 CONC le died July 26, 1921 at Springfield, Ill.  He is buried at East Cemet
2 CONC ery, Waverly, Ill.  He and his wife were the parents of Elise Nov. 25
2 CONC , 1871 - July 1, 1872; Charles Francis May 26, 1873 - Feb. 9, 1966; Or
2 CONC rin Anthony Mar. 5, 1875 - Oct. 3, 1894; William Lester May 22, 187

2 CONT The One Hundred First Infantry Regiment Illinois Volunteers was organi

2 CONC d of ten companies of young men mainly from Morgan County.  These me
2 CONC n served the Union with distinction, motivated by concerns greater tha
2 CONC n the $13 monthly stipend paid to the soldiers.  The story of this reg

2 CONT 
2 CONT On October 6, 1862, the Wabash railroad took the regiment to Cairo, Il

2 CONT . . . The compiler of the Wemple Genealogy owes a deep debt of gratitu
2 CONC de to her son, David Demerest Cassity, for the very hard work he did i
2 CONC n working out this entire branch of the family and getting the variou
2 CONC s members of it interested sufficiently to submit the necessary facts
2 CONC ; without the great assistance rendered it would have been impossibl
2 CONC e to have perfected this portion of the family and as a token of appre
2 CONC ciation his personal history is given below, this being the only conce
2 CONC ssion made to a descendant of a female branch. 
2 CONT The account is an article copied from HISTORY OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY edi
2 CONC ted by Washington Trothingham in 1892:
2 CONT 
2 CONT David D. Cassity's boyhood was passed in his native town of Florida, M
2 CONC ontgomery County, NY, where he attended the district schools.  . . . t
2 CONC he young man was thrown upon his own resources at an early age, and i
2 CONC n 1844, when seventeen, found employment as a clerk in a dry goods sto
2 CONC re in Amsterdam.  . . .  In 1849 he entered the Farmer's Bank of Amste
2 CONC rdam as a clerk. . . . Through the various positions in the bank he st
2 CONC eadily rose - clerk, bookkeeper, teller, assistant cashier and directo
2 CONC r, until in 1859,  . . .  he was placed in position of cashier, a posi
2 CONC tion which in country banks and banks in small cities, is the chief ex
2 CONC ecutive officer of the institution.  . . .  Since his retirement fro
2 CONC m the bank, Mr. Cassidy has given his attention to the improvement o
2 CONC f his real estate in Amsterdam, of which his is a large owner. The ne
2 CONC w Cassidy Block on East Main Street had very recently has been erecte
2 CONC d and adds much to the beauty and a prosperous aspect of that part o

1 NOTE The following obituary was sent to the compiler via email by Carol Kea
2 CONC ne on June 23, 1999:
2 CONT 
2 CONT James V. Wemple
2 CONT 
2 CONT The death of James V. Wemple , at his home in Duanesburgh at one o'clo
2 CONC ck yesterday morning, removed from this life one of the oldest and mos
2 CONC t honored citizens, not only of the town where he lived, but also of t
2 CONC he county.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The cause of death was a general breakdown. Mr. Wemple had not suffere
2 CONC d from illness or pain of any kind, but about three months ago his hea
2 CONC lth began to fail. Mr. Wemple was born in Duanesburgh within one mil
2 CONC e of the house in which he died, on December 7, 1820. He loved natur
2 CONC e and the peace and quiet of the country, so, after the death of his f
2 CONC ather he bought out the other heirs to the homestead and adjacent farm
2 CONC s and worked them with intelligence and thrift.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1857 he married Miss Kaley, a daughter of Joseph Kaley of Princetow
2 CONC n. The first child, a son, Abram, died at the age of 10 years. The oth
2 CONC er children, who with his wife survive him, are W. W. Wemple, distric
2 CONC t attorney; Rebecca, the wife of Robert A. Little, of Duanesburgh, J
2 CONC . Kaley Wemple, of Duanesburgh, Henry J. of Guilderland; Rev. Jerry Y
2 CONC . Wemple, pastor of the Ballston Centre Presbyterian church and John A
2 CONC . Wemple, of the Schenectady Savings Bank, who is the youngest.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple was for many years an officer of the Dutch Reformed churc
2 CONC h in Duanesburgh. He was a man of few words and few promises, but whe
2 CONC n he made a promise it was always fulfilled to the letter. The communi
2 CONC ty in which he lived feels his death has removed a just man and a fait
2 CONC hful fried. For several years Mr. Wemple had taken no part in active l
2 CONC ife. The funeral will take place Friday afternoon at one o' clock.

1 NOTE According to his granddaugher, Mary Josephine Wemple Nystrand, Scott d
2 CONC eserted his wife and family of three sons sometime after Mabel, his da
2 CONC ughter, died of burns suffered from the family wood heater.  He left h
2 CONC ome sometime after 1895 and the family didn't hear from him for the ne
2 CONC xt thirty years or so.  He wrote a letter to his sons about 1936-37. N
2 CONC one of the family answered his letter.  In the letter his told of hi
2 CONC s employment at General Motors in Flint, MI.  The family was unaware o
2 CONC f his death in July of 1937 and it was in 1996 that the compiler mad
2 CONC e contact with the County Recorder's Office in Flint, MI and determine
2 CONC d the date of his death and the fact that he was buried in Flint, MI
2 CONC .  On the death certificate, a second wife, which proceeded him in dea
2 CONC th, was listed. There was no marriage certificate on record for the se
2 CONC cond marriage of Scott.  It is entirely possible that there was neve
2 CONC r a second marriage, that he decided to just live with this second wom
2 CONC an. It is entirely possible that a daughter survived from Scott's seco
2 CONC nd marriage, as a woman claimed his body. DRW
2 CONT 
2 CONT When Mabel was burned, she ran screaming from her house in flames wit
2 CONC h only the adults in pursuit and her three young siblings never saw he
2 CONC r again.  For months afterward, Earl and Walter put cookies in a windo
2 CONC w for her as a gift, even though they knew that their sister was dead
2 CONC .  Some kind adult continued to take the cookies so that the boys thou
2 CONC ght that their sister was coming to eat their offering. DRW

2 CONT ----------------------------------------------------------------------
2 CONC ----------
2 CONT 
2 CONT If you don't hear anything from us, you'll know that nothing is wrong
2 CONC .  These words echoed in my brain as I ripped open the envelope. Noth
2 CONC ing was wrong, so why was I holding that awful letter?  I read throug
2 CONC h it three or four times before I could understand anything. Somethin
2 CONC g about abnormal results, need to make follow up, soon as possible, CA
2 CONC NCER.  Read it one more time. 
2 CONT I put the letter on my dresser and carried on with my life.  I felt st
2 CONC rongly that it was a mistake and that it would be easy to forget about
2 CONC .  Soon the letter was buried under an ever-growing pile of graduatio
2 CONC n cards and the shiny wrappings and multi-colored bows that had contai
2 CONC ned all the presents.  But the grave I had made for the letter was no
2 CONC t deep enough and I found it resurrected within days. 
2 CONT I called the number and spoke with a nurse.  She coldly listed my opti
2 CONC ons and gave me three days to decide what I was going to do.  A routin
2 CONC e test at my last physical revealed that I had some cells in my body t
2 CONC hat were abnormal.  It was possible that the cells were precancerous
2 CONC , actual cancer cells, or nothing harmful at all.  But, in order to kn
2 CONC ow for sure, I would need a different test done by a new doctor.  Dr
2 CONC . Holt was a new addition to the Coastal Women's Clinic, located in El
2 CONC izabeth City, thirty minutes away from Edenton. 
2 CONT Like any other day, August 13 arrived and with it my appointment. Driv
2 CONC ing in my car with the windows rolled down and the radio up as loud a
2 CONC s I could get it, I tried not to worry.  I sang loudly to cover up tho
2 CONC se little voices that got louder than the radio.  I arrived in twenty-
2 CONC five minutes.  I should have driven slower.  Why was I in a hurry to g
2 CONC et here?  I parked my car, finished my 7-up, and slowly walked into th
2 CONC e building. 
2 CONT I went to the window to check and saw a flyer decorated with a stork a
2 CONC nd a baby Announcing the June arrival of Dr. Holt just like an annou
2 CONC ncement you would send out for a new baby.  I hoped he wasn't too youn
2 CONC g. 
2 CONT After checking in I grabbed a magazine off the table and started to re
2 CONC ad.  American Cheerleader, who reads this stuff?  People who do not wa
2 CONC nt to face reality (me included).  After about ten minutes of the ne
2 CONC w styles of pompoms, ways to improve your smile, how to be overly chee
2 CONC rful about just about anything, I put the magazine back on the table a
2 CONC nd looked around the room.  The gray carpet with the speckles that mak
2 CONC e it match anything, the mauve wallpaper with its crooked border, an
2 CONC d the dimly lit windows.  There were chairs all along the walls and a
2 CONC t each window they made a third side that extended into the middle o
2 CONC f the room. The women and children seated in theses chairs seemed preo
2 CONC ccupied with other things besides being in the waiting room of the doc
2 CONC tor's office. Children were playing with the Weevil People trucks an
2 CONC d tractors on the floor.  The women read books and magazines and worke
2 CONC d diligently on crossword puzzles. 
2 CONT A line of chairs on the far wall stretched across the entrance to th
2 CONC e restrooms.  That was where the men were.  I don't know if the magazi
2 CONC nes on that side, Road and Track, Consumer Reports, and Car and Driver
2 CONC , had anything to do with it or if it was just the company of the guys
2 CONC .  It was about the time that I noticed the men that I began to feel t
2 CONC erribly alone and out of place.  No teenagers were there worrying abou
2 CONC t whether or not they had cancer.  The only other young person there w
2 CONC as pregnant for the second time and obviously used to the routine
2 CONC .  I played with my keys until my name was called.  Put up the keys an
2 CONC d follow the lab coat down the hall. 
2 CONT In a small, brightly lit room that reeked of disinfectant and the smel
2 CONC l of Band-Aids, I awaited the entry of my new doctor.  Enter Dr. Holt
2 CONC , a handsome man of no more than twenty-seven who was about to get ver
2 CONC y personal.  I would have felt more comfortable with a female doctor b
2 CONC ut it was too late now.  The whole procedure would take fifteen to twe
2 CONC nty minutes.  Dr. Holt was going to look for any areas that appeared a
2 CONC bnormal and if there were any areas that concerned him, he would d
2 CONC o a biopsy and remove some tissue for further testing.  That would hur
2 CONC t, but not too much. 
2 CONT Reality was still out of reach and even as he began the procedure my m
2 CONC ind wandered.  I looked at the poster above the examination table. Bra
2 CONC d Pitt.  Who thought Brad Pitt was going to ease my mind?  The sight o
2 CONC f him did calm my nerves a little, it made me feel like laughing. Anyt
2 CONC hing besides pay attention to what was happening in the real world. Th
2 CONC en the doctor spoke.  He told me that he wanted to do two biopsies an
2 CONC d he asked me if I was all right.  This intrusion of speech into my ca
2 CONC refully constructed dream world was too much and it collapsed.  A tea
2 CONC r rolled down my cheek as I uttered the word yes.  It was all over i
2 CONC n a matter of minutes, but it hurt and would continue to hurt for a fe
2 CONC w days.  After the procedure, my mind raced with questions I did not k
2 CONC now how to ask.  The nurse gave me a pamphlet and told me the result
2 CONC s would be back in two weeks. 
2 CONT I made an appointment to get the results, paid the bill, and headed fo
2 CONC r the parking lot.  I sat in the car alone.  No one had come with me t
2 CONC o comfort me or drive me home.  School would be starting soon. I was a
2 CONC n adult now and could handle this all by myself.  But in truth, I wa
2 CONC s not handling it, I never took it seriously.  It just had to be a mis
2 CONC take. 
2 CONT I started my car, grabbed my sunglasses, and left.  Questions raced th
2 CONC rough my head, and the pamphlet given to me by the nurse that was supp
2 CONC osed to answer anything I needed to know could not satisfy my starve
2 CONC d mind.  I threw it out the window in disgust. 
2 CONT Two weeks of waiting.  Questions, doubts, fears all running rampant th
2 CONC rough my mind.  The results came on September third.  I was supposed t
2 CONC o go to an eight o'clock class that morning, but I skipped it to cal
2 CONC l the doctor's office as soon as they opened.  The first try I got the
2 CONC ir answering service and I could not get my results.  I decided not t
2 CONC o call back until later on that afternoon. 
2 CONT At three o'clock I made the call.  I was on hold countless times.  Som
2 CONC etimes I wonder if anyone over there knows what they are doing.  I spo
2 CONC ke with three secretaries and two nurses.  I had to ask for results t
2 CONC o a cancer screening five different times (it was hard enough the firs
2 CONC t time). 
2 CONT Finally, the right nurse picked up the receiver and explained to me th
2 CONC e results.  I did not have cancer!  What a relief!  But (I really hat
2 CONC e that word) I did have a form of pre-cancer.  The nurse explained t
2 CONC o me that it was similar to having a mole that was irregularly shape
2 CONC d or discolored.  Though it was nothing at all like skin cancer, thi
2 CONC s was the only analogy she could find to describe it to me simply.  Th
2 CONC ere was a sense of urgency in her voice when she said that I should ma
2 CONC ke another appointment with Dr. Holt to discuss my options for surgery
2 CONC .  Surgery?! It would be a simple surgery, they could do it there in t
2 CONC he office (surgery is surgery, no matter were you do it).  I could hav
2 CONC e a laser procedure or a freezing procedure.  Both would have relative
2 CONC ly short recovery time. 
2 CONT After telling my mother the results, I decided to wait until fall brea
2 CONC k to do anything.  She told me to try not to worry and that she woul
2 CONC d be there for me.  It eased my mind knowing that I will not have to g
2 CONC o through this alone.

1 NOTE The compiler hereby acknowledges the valuable assistance for the compl

2 CONT 
2 CONT The following letter written by Delmont's wife, Marilyn, was receive
2 CONC d by the compiler on April 5, 2007: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Dear Dave and Donna, 
2 CONT 
2 CONT My apologies for being so late with such very sad news: the reason fo
2 CONC r no Christmas cards this year. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Our family's world is completely shattered. Del died December 19th a
2 CONC t the outstanding hospice facility in Branford, Connecticut. He was th
2 CONC ere (me, too) for 4½ weeks valiantly dealing with aggressive, inoperab
2 CONC le lung cancer - thankfully, with minumal pain. He was doing crossword
2 CONC s two days before he died! He handled this situation with his usual st
2 CONC yle - grace, dignity, and humor - that great humor. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT We were married 57 years, two kids, Matt 48, Marcia 46 - have two gran
2 CONC dchildren - perfect of course!?! Lauren 21, Doug 19. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Our lives shall never be as bright or happy without Del. But the lov
2 CONC e and memories are with us forever. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Good health and God's Blessing, Lyn 
2 CONT 
2 CONT P.S. I know this is tacky (the main letter was copied so that she woul
2 CONC dn't have to hand draft each copy she sent to many friends and famil
2 CONC y members DRW), but have handwritten a cajillion Thank You notes. S
2 CONC o - took the easy way out. I knew you'd want to know aobut Del.

2 CONT As related to Alan S. Ryall, Jr.
2 CONT by his grandmother

2 CONT in the early 1950’s
2 CONT and supplemented by various documents
2 CONT 
2 CONT James Benedict Ryall was born on September 24, 1882, in Ireland, to pa
2 CONC rents George R. and Juliana Ryall.  The family immigrated to America b
2 CONC efore James was a year old, and he was raised on the East Coast.  In A
2 CONC merica George practiced law, and was said to have graduated from Dubli
2 CONC n University.  However, a letter dated January 18, 1956 from the Assis
2 CONC tant Registrar of Trinity College, University of Dublin, stated that t
2 CONC here was no record of a George Ryall having attended that school.  Jul
2 CONC iana claimed that the birthplace of her son was Tralee, but a letter d
2 CONC ated December 28, 1946 from the Registrar of County Kerry, in which Tr
2 CONC alee is located, stated that he hd no records of births, marriages o
2 CONC r deaths for this family, and he had forwarded the letter to several 
2 CONC Ryles who might have knowledge of the family.  [Note:  In the 1900 U
2 CONC S Census, George and Juliana were living at 138 Home Avenue, Rutherfor
2 CONC d, Bergen County, New Jersey.  There were two sons listed:  Michael J
2 CONC . Ryall, born in Ireland September 1882 and George Ryall, born in Ne
2 CONC w York November 1889. Apparently at some point Michael J. changed hi
2 CONC s name to James Benedict Ryall - AR]
2 CONT 
2 CONT James was educated at St. Francis Xavier Military School in New York C
2 CONC ity, and although mechanically inclined was induced to begin work in h
2 CONC is father’s law firm but was soon fired. It was during this period - a
2 CONC round 1903 - that George Ryall was handling some legal matters for th
2 CONC e Daniel Frederick Wemple family, and in the course of dealing with th
2 CONC e Wemples James met Alice and they were married at the Church of the T
2 CONC ransfiguration in New York, on January 13, 1904.  Alice was Episcopali
2 CONC an, and the family was well-off, due in part to a sizeable amount of S
2 CONC inger Sewing Machine stock that had been acquired by her grandmother
2 CONC .  James had been raised as a Catholic, but abandoned that faith whe
2 CONC n he married Alice.  She said that he always considered his Irish-Cath
2 CONC olic background to be an impediment, and as a Captain in the Army gav
2 CONC e his religion as mugwump.
2 CONT 
2 CONT James also worked briefly for attorney Nathan Goldberger, at the Horow
2 CONC itz Law Office.  Goldberger handled legal and family financial affair
2 CONC s for Alice during her life with James.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Using some of Alice’s Singer Sewing Machine inheritance, the couple mo
2 CONC ved to High Street, Passaic, New Jersey, where James bought an automob
2 CONC ile garage and started amateur automobile racing.  Their first son Ala
2 CONC n Stuart Ryall was born there [Note:  the son’s was christened as Geor
2 CONC ge Alexander Ryall, but later changed his name].  In 1906 the family l
2 CONC ived at 608 Sixth St., Asbury Park, New Jersey.  In 1908 they moved t
2 CONC o Newark, and James became an agent for the Matheson Automobile Compan
2 CONC y of Wilkes-Barre, PA, and their second son Scott was born. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT In April 1908 James drove in the practice run to the Briarcliff-to-Yor
2 CONC ktown Stock Car Race, where his Matheson was in an accident, as a resu
2 CONC lt of which he missed the main event.  He also drove a 60-HP Matheso
2 CONC n in the Vanderbilt Cup Race in 1908, where according to the October 2
2 CONC 5, 1908 New York Times:
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Matheson, which Ryall drove, drew up in front of the grandstand o
2 CONC n its fourth round with flames issuing from its gear box.  The flame
2 CONC s enveloped the hood before the car could be brought to a stop, fanne
2 CONC d by the air current induced by its motion.  Instantly there was a flu
2 CONC rry, and one quick-witted spectator seized a fire extinguisher and pla
2 CONC yed it on the flames. This put out the blaze.  The mischief had been d
2 CONC one so far as the race went, for, although he worked on the car for mo
2 CONC re than an hour, Ryall could not get it started again.
2 CONT 
2 CONT James also drove in the Mardi Gras Race in New Orleans, with Louis Che
2 CONC vrolet as his mechanic.
2 CONT 
2 CONT As a race-car driver James did well, although he had a reputation fo
2 CONC r recklessness, and the house was soon adorned with trophies of all si
2 CONC zes and shapes.  However, he was totally inept at managing a business
2 CONC , and his racing bankrupted the garage.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1908 James’ father filed a $50,000 lawsuit against him for non-paym
2 CONC ent of some legal fees, and to escape court proceedings he and Alice p
2 CONC acked up their belongings and two sons, left at night, and for a shor
2 CONC t time lived in Portland, ME.  A serious depression plus James’ usua
2 CONC l financial difficulties forced them to migrate again - first to Denve
2 CONC r, CO, then Glendale, CA and then Ross, CA, where they lived from 191
2 CONC 2 to 1916. During these troubled times the family was financed by th
2 CONC e old family friend Nathan Goldberger, with James out of work and Alic
2 CONC e’s inheritance tied up by George Ryall’s suit.  Alice afterward thoug
2 CONC ht that perhaps the father had sued the son primarily to save the rema
2 CONC inder of her estate from James’ reckless spending.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In San Francisco, with Goldberger’s help, James bought a Chinese her
2 CONC b business.  This went belly-up and James was faced with the threat o
2 CONC f a stretch in federal prison for using the mail to defraud.  Until th
2 CONC en, Alice had been abandoned by the Wemples, but when she and James we
2 CONC re at their rope’s end her brother Alex came west and straightened thi
2 CONC ngs out for them.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1916 and 1917 the family lived on Lamartine Avenue, Bayside, Long I
2 CONC sland, and James worked for the Jeffrey Army Quad Truck Division o
2 CONC f Poertner Motor Car Company of New York.  In October 1917 James recei
2 CONC ved a commission as Captain in the U.S. Army, and in mid-November he w
2 CONC as stationed in Washington, DC.  In May 5, 1918 he was ordered to Fran
2 CONC ce with the 13th Field Artillery.  His experience with automobiles tur
2 CONC ned out to be valuable here, since the Army was changing from horse-dr
2 CONC awn to motorized equipment, and his knowledge of automobiles was unexc
2 CONC elled.  On the other hand, as a 90-day wonder he was disliked by hi
2 CONC s fellow officers, most of whom were West Pointers.
2 CONT 
2 CONT James fought in the battles of Chateau Thierry and St. Mihiel, where h
2 CONC e was wounded in the leg and nicked on the nose.  According to Alice h
2 CONC e also fell off a train in France and injured his shoulder, an injur
2 CONC y that prevented the full use of his arm thereafter.  When he was rele
2 CONC ased from the French hospital he returned to the front, where he caugh
2 CONC t appendicitis and was again moved behind the lines, missing the rotat
2 CONC ion of his unit back to the States.  When released he was put in charg
2 CONC e of a group of returning veterans, and on the voyage home caught tons
2 CONC illitis and was again hospitalized.  He was transferred to San Francis
2 CONC co, where he was admitted to Letterman Hospital because of the old sho
2 CONC ulder injury.  Finally he applied for a discharge, and returned to civ
2 CONC ilian life as a salesman for the Packard Automobile Company.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Through the war Alice had stayed in New York, supported by socialite b
2 CONC rother Alex.  When James was discharged she decided that he had shirke
2 CONC d his family responsibilities long enough, and came west with their fo
2 CONC ur children - Alan, Scott, Martha (Dixie), and Leslie.  In the 1920 Ce
2 CONC nsus, the family was listed as living at 550 Leavenworth Avenue in Sa
2 CONC n Francisco.  The reconciliation failed, and Alice left James for good
2 CONC , scraping by as best she could with the two boys working.  In Octobe
2 CONC r 1922 Alice and the children were living a 561 37th Avenue in San Fra
2 CONC ncisco.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A few months later James was involved in a scandal, in which the wif
2 CONC e of a wealthy lumberman was killed while riding in his car.  On Janua
2 CONC ry 16, 1923, he took an overdose of sleeping pills.  According to th
2 CONC e death certificate the cause of death was acute gastro enteritis ind
2 CONC uced by overindulgence in Veronal, together with “acute pulmonary con
2 CONC gestion” and myocarditis.  According to the SF Chronicle on Januar
2 CONC y 17, James B. Ryall, well-known in automobile and club circles, die
2 CONC d suddenly in his room at the St. Francis yesterday afternoon, evident
2 CONC ly from heart trouble.  Ryall served during the war as a Captain in th
2 CONC e army, was a member of the Olympic Club and an automobile salesman
2 CONC .  He lived at the Beresford Hotel, but several days ago engaged a roo
2 CONC m at the St. Francis. According to his friends he had been ill in a lo
2 CONC cal hospital recently. He was 35 years old.  [Actually he was 40 - AR

2 CONT 
2 CONT Dear Mamma and Papa,
2 CONT 
2 CONT We have ridden 27 miles today and I am very tired. I came pretty nea
2 CONC r going to sleep. I(f) it hadn't been for the glare of water I would h
2 CONC ave gone to sleep. Sure we went seventeen miles. Nearly five mile of h
2 CONC ill. After we go to the Cascade Lake we got out of the wagon and ate o
2 CONC ur lunch and Uncle Ed went to the Hotel and got a pitcher which cost 3
2 CONC 5c and the driver got his lunch tea and all if he drank any for 25c an
2 CONC d the tea I had make (me) so sleppy that I could have gone right to sl
2 CONC eep there, but I was thirsty and I went and got a drink of ice water a
2 CONC nd I wasn't so sleppy, but I'm still a little sleppy. I guess I can g
2 CONC o to bed and sleep like a tot. A little while after we left the hous
2 CONC e we began to play road cribbage. We would take sides of the road an
2 CONC d Mrs. Gardner and Aunt Maggie and I were all on the right hand side o
2 CONC f the road and Mr. Garner and Ma and a Miss Dogan and Alex were on th
2 CONC e left hand side and every four legged animal you met counted one an
2 CONC d a cat in a window counted 50 and which ever side got 100 first won t
2 CONC he game. The side Alex was on beat (the) first game and the side I wa
2 CONC s on beat second and tomorrow when we are going home we are going to p
2 CONC lay again. Tomorrow we are going to take a sail in the boat around th
2 CONC e lake there in Mirror Lake and Lake Placid. I don't know which we ar
2 CONC e going on, but I wish we could go on both, but that is too much. It i
2 CONC s awful nice up here. Coming over here we stopped and got some drinks
2 CONC . Uncle Ed and Mr. Gardner got lager beer and they said it tasted jus
2 CONC t like fresh ale and I guess it did if he says so for he ought to kno
2 CONC w and Aunt Maggie got sasparilla and she sent back word by Alex that i
2 CONC t was very good coffee and I was sensible and took birch beer and min
2 CONC e was the best of all we had. Two porters meet us and we were very dus
2 CONC ty and they had brooms that were about a half a yard long. There are f
2 CONC our porters here and each got a broom with a handle. They are half a y
2 CONC ard long, as I said before. There is a Mr. Barfnton here who is a sing
2 CONC er and he knows Mr. L. L. Powers very well and speaks very well of him
2 CONC . He said he has had many a glass of beer with him and says he is ver
2 CONC y nice. He says he was at his Easter concert. We had at I don't know h
2 CONC ow to spell it so you will have to guess, but I will spell it the bes
2 CONC t way I can. We had (an) auker party and they don't know how to play
2 CONC . They are so stupid as oxes and those who do play, play a baby game
2 CONC . They assist and take their partners bet, but the did not play that w
2 CONC ay (you bet for it is safe to bet). If Uncle Ed had anything to say ab
2 CONC out it, Aunt Maggie (have) won a prize and that was all won anything i
2 CONC n our family.
2 CONT 
2 CONT We are going to have a donkey party Wednesday and I hope I will wi

2 CONC 000:
2 CONT 
2 CONT CHILDHOOD RECOLLECTIONS OF ALAN S. RYALL, DESCRIBED IN A LETTER TO HI
2 CONC S DAUGHTER JANET RYALL, STARTED JANUARY 25, 1981
2 CONT 
2 CONT I have never thought of recording my experiences and it seems confusin
2 CONC g at the moment.  Perhaps I shall get used to it as this volume develo
2 CONC ps.
2 CONT 
2 CONT This evening we retired early (10 pm).  I slept for about 9 hours, the
2 CONC n, was awakened by a peculiar dream.  I was busily packing a couple o
2 CONC f trucks and trailers and was being delayed by my brother Scott and m
2 CONC y sister Dixie [Martha].  I was getting more and more annoyed with the
2 CONC m and the frustration awakened me.  As I lay there thinking about th
2 CONC e dream I somehow connected it with the story of the Singers and the t
2 CONC hought that perhaps I had better get things in shape as my time is ge
2 CONC tting short. And so, Jan, I am now seated at the dining table wit
2 CONC h a glass of sherry, pen in hand and endeavoring to carry out your wis
2 CONC hes.  I shall try to recall things in chronological order as much as p
2 CONC ossible.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The very first item is one of great pain and agony.  I am about 2 o
2 CONC r 3 years old.  I am sitting on the ground in front of a large white b
2 CONC ox.  In my hand is a toy mallet.  I am hitting little black bugs as th
2 CONC ey come out of a hole in the large white box.  Suddenly I am screaming
2 CONC , I am grabbed by my mother and torn away from the large white box amo
2 CONC ngst great yelling and screaming, buzzing and stinging.  This was my e
2 CONC arly introduction to beekeeping, which in later years became a fond ho
2 CONC bby, with the aid of proper protection in the form of gloves and bee m
2 CONC ail [although I remember him collecting a swarm of bees from our fron
2 CONC t tree by scooping them into a cardboard box without any protective ge
2 CONC ar at all -- AR].
2 CONT 
2 CONT This must have taken place in Passaic, NJ, where Scott and I were born
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT About 3 years later we lived in Saco, Maine.  The only event I can rem
2 CONC ember in Saco was standing on our front porch and watching a sulky rac
2 CONC e go by on the road in front.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A couple of years later we live in New Orleans.  I can remember seein
2 CONC g snow on the ground one day and a milk wagon turned over on its side
2 CONC , the horse dead and the milk spilled.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The next recollection is of Glendale, California.  I was about 5.  W
2 CONC e lived in the country outside of Los Angeles.  My parents raised thei
2 CONC r own vegetables and chickens.  My Dad, being an automobile man from t
2 CONC he beginning was at this time importing cars from back east and recond
2 CONC itioning them.  This could have led into something great for him but a
2 CONC t the time he was taking a great interest in photography.  He invite
2 CONC d cowboy neighbors to come to our home, where they would put on a juni
2 CONC or rodeo and he would photograph them.  Some of his pictures you wil
2 CONC l find in the family photo album.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The moving picture industry was just then getting started and my Dad’
2 CONC s friends wanted him to come in with them but he preferred the automob
2 CONC iles.  Thus, perhaps, passing another great opportunity.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From Glendale we moved on to San Francisco, where we lived on Lake St
2 CONC . near the Presidio. At that time the Army Cavalry occupied the Presid
2 CONC io of SF.  Scott and I often went to a spot nearby where the troops we
2 CONC re trained to ride and often they took us on horseback with them to ri
2 CONC de. It was a great thrill for two little boys.  At this time there wa
2 CONC s nothing North and West of us, except sand dunes.  This was about 191
2 CONC 0 or 1911.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Next we moved to (Fort) Ross in Marin County.  It was a beautiful smal
2 CONC l country town, one school, one fire engine, no theaters, one store, o
2 CONC ne creek in which I learned to fish.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In (Fort) Ross we lived in a lovely home on a road that led to the Arm
2 CONC sby estate.  Jeff Armsby, their young son fancied himself a military l
2 CONC eader and organized an army of youngsters in the neighborhood.  We di
2 CONC d a lot of marching through the woods and conducting imaginary sham ba
2 CONC ttles.
2 CONT 
2 CONT During the 1915 Fair in SF, we often went to the City (SF) to see th
2 CONC e marvels of construction of the buildings that made up the World Inte
2 CONC rnational Exposition.  One still stands and has recently been restored
2 CONC , the Palace of Fine Arts.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1916 we moved back to New York and for awhile lived in an apartmen
2 CONC t at 140th and Broadway near the Riverside Drive.  It was great fun t
2 CONC o enjoy the snow covered streets and see the ice flows along the Hudso
2 CONC n River.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In moving from California to NY it was impossible to get acquainted wi
2 CONC th the accent, which was like a foreign language.  I was put back a fu
2 CONC ll grade which was a disgrace.  However I did make it up as soon a
2 CONC s I conquered the NY lingo.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Next we moved out to Bayside, Long Island.  Here life was quite differ
2 CONC ent and we kids had a great time.  I managed to have a boat or canoe a
2 CONC s we lived on Little Neck Bay.  We enjoyed the Bay and Long Island Sou
2 CONC nd in the summer and the woods and snow in the winter.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In Bayside we were in Scouting and our Dad was in the Army as a Captai
2 CONC n of Field Artillery in France during WWI.  These were a few of the ye
2 CONC ars which I enjoyed most as a youngster.  The thrills of Scouting le
2 CONC d by an Army Officer, returned from France, of sailing down the Soun
2 CONC d in summer to camp out near Great Neck and Hempstead Harbor, and the
2 CONC n to return after a month or so hungry, dirty and happy with the exper
2 CONC ience of a lifetime.
2 CONT 
2 CONT During the winter the Scout Troop would go off in the woods to camp ou
2 CONC t in the snow and arrange teams to track each other through the forest
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT One of these occasions resulted in my being able to save the life of m
2 CONC y sister Lesley.  We had just returned from a campout.  As I stepped i
2 CONC n the front door, Lesley was standing in front of the fireplace.  Sh
2 CONC e wore a light, flimsy, little girls’ dress which caught fire.  She ra
2 CONC n to the kitchen where I caught up with her, tore off my mackinaw coat
2 CONC , threw it around her and hugged her to me, which extinguished the fla
2 CONC mes.  Her legs were severely burned but healed up soon.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Another time we were out on a dock with other kids and someone shoute
2 CONC d that Julie Hauptman was drowning under the dock.  He was a kid tha
2 CONC t would never go near the water when we were swimming.  This time he f
2 CONC ell in and it as winter, so that water was cold.  A couple of us crawl
2 CONC ed out on spars between the pilings, managed to grab him and pull hi
2 CONC m out.
2 CONT 
2 CONT His father was a musician in the orchestra at the Hotel Astor in NY
2 CONC .  So, he took about 12 of us to lunch at the Astor and the show at th
2 CONC e Hipodrome.
2 CONT 
2 CONT So, you see, Scouting really pays and teaches a kid to be prepared a
2 CONC t all times.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Later, Scott contracted Rheumatic fever and was one very sick kid.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After a year of care and medication, the Doctor (who never failed to m
2 CONC ake house calls) felt it would be better if we could get Scott out int
2 CONC o the country.  Which resulted in our moving to Meadowbrook, a villag
2 CONC e about 60 miles above NY Central, a rural farm community.  The neares
2 CONC t shopping area was Salisbury Mills, which is now a popular winter res
2 CONC ort area, about 10 miles west.  After a few wonderful years in Meadowb
2 CONC rook we again got together with my father in San Francisco.
2 CONT 
2 CONT This lasted about a year and our mother and father separated for the l
2 CONC ast time.  He died at the age of 40.  Scott and I went to work and sup
2 CONC ported the family with some help from our Uncle Alex.  He had been ou
2 CONC r main source of income off and on, for years. (Alex was)  A very fin
2 CONC e man and a loyal one.  He had a fine sense of humor and an excellen
2 CONC t (self acquired) cultural background.  He traveled in many foreign na
2 CONC tions, was fluent in French, German, English and Spanish.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He had a fine musical knowledge.  As a young man he sang on the concer
2 CONC t stage, which was most popular in the late ‘80’s.  Our mother Alice W
2 CONC emple was his accompanist.  I still have her music cabinet, which is n
2 CONC ow over 100 years old.  It is solid mahogany, beautifully inlaid wit
2 CONC h lighter woods.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Wemples were a very fine family.  Our grandmother was Martha Stuar
2 CONC t, descended from the Stuarts of Scotland.  Grandfather Daniel Frederi
2 CONC ck Wemple was a descendent of the Wemples who helped to settle the Sta
2 CONC te of New York.  A letter of ancestry is included herewith.  We did no
2 CONC t know them as they had passed away before our time.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Our mother was very typical of the ladies of her generation.  She wa
2 CONC s a very grand person and an absolute lady.  A good pal to us kids wh
2 CONC o saw to it that we learned the things necessary to live decent lives
2 CONC .  Her life was a difficult one and she always made the best of it.  S
2 CONC he had to be mother and father and she did it with poise and dignity.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It is difficult for me, at this point, to look back over the many year
2 CONC s we spent together and to express how much we all owed to her.  She h
2 CONC ad a job forced upon her as head of a family of youngsters and she di
2 CONC d an admirable job of it.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She was raised in a wealthy and dignified family.  She lived that wa
2 CONC y for many years after marriage, until her income and funds were deple
2 CONC ted and then learned to do housework and cook and raise children.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She always put good things and ideas before us in order to improve ou
2 CONC r lives.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I shall always have the greatest love, admiration and respect for her
2 CONC , and I know that her other children would feel the same way if they w
2 CONC ere here.  Scott and Dixie have passed on and Lesley has been very il
2 CONC l for years.  She is now confined to her bed or wheelchair.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I am wasting valuable time.  It is now October 15, 1982.  Almost a yea
2 CONC r since I started.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Alan Ryall added the following to the above, which gives the reade
2 CONC r a picture of his later life:
2 CONT 
2 CONT Later, my father worked in San Mateo for PG&E, first on an electrica
2 CONC l crew and later in the office.  He quit when the war started and wen
2 CONC t to work at Western Pipe and Steel Co., building merchant ships for t
2 CONC he Navy.  In 1943 he was a shipfitter foreman.  After the war he
2 CONT worked at a number of jobs -- insurance salesman, salesman at Sears, a
2 CONC nd real estate salesman.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was a 32nd Degree Mason, and was Master of the Blue Lodge when the
2 CONC y lived in San Mateo.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In the late 1960's he and my mother had their own real estate office

2 CONT 
2 CONT University of Nevada, Reno, 1964-1976 and 1978-1985
2 CONT 
2 CONT As Director of the Seismological Laboratory, Dr. Ryall had complete re
2 CONC sponsibility for initiating, developing and conducting the state’s sei
2 CONC smological research program, which included building Nevada’s seismi
2 CONC c telemetry network, and he conducted investigations of seismic and vo
2 CONC lcanic hazards, earthquake distribution and earthquake source mechanis
2 CONC ms, seismic effects due to reservoir loading, seismicity induced by nu
2 CONC clear explosions at the Nevada Test Site, siting of critical facilitie
2 CONC s, and explosion studies of the structure of the crust and upper mantl
2 CONC e in the Great Basin region.  By 1985 the state’s 65-station network w
2 CONC as recording digitally, and the Laboratory staff were processing and c
2 CONC ataloging several thousand earthquakes per year.  From 1978 to 1985 mu
2 CONC ch of the Laboratory’s effort was directed at research on a major eart
2 CONC hquake swarm at Mammoth Lakes, California, and on the possibility tha
2 CONC t the activity could lead to renewed volcanic activity in that area
2 CONC .  As a Professor of Seismology with the University’s Department of Ea
2 CONC rth Sciences, Dr. Ryall initiated the undergraduate and graduate progr
2 CONC ams in geophysics, and taught courses in seismology.

2 CONT The compiler wrote June 28, 2000 to Alan Ryall an email letter and ask
2 CONC ed about his association with the Russians. This is his answer:
2 CONT 
2 CONT Dealing with the Russians was sort of an ongoing thing in my career -
2 CONC - starting with Army Language School, then translating and editing sci
2 CONC entific papers, then interacting with Russian seismologists and
2 CONT finally negotiators and military people.  Flori and I went to the USS
2 CONC R in 1971 for a big scientific meeting, and I was there five more time
2 CONC s -- in 1974, 1988, 1990, 1994 and 1998.  In 1974 I got to Central Asi
2 CONC a --
2 CONT Tashkent, Samarkand, Bukhara and an earthquake prediction project on t
2 CONC he Surkhob River in Tadzhikistan.  In 1990 I was in Obninsk, one of th
2 CONC e closed science cities, and was in Moscow on May Day as the Soviet sy
2 CONC stem collapsed.  In 94 I accompanied an Air Force general and a high-l
2 CONC evel Air Force scientist to Moscow, Kirov and Dubna.  In 88 I was at t
2 CONC he Russian test site near Semipalatinsk and watched them shoot a burie
2 CONC d 125-kiloton bomb, which broke a lot of glassware in the press and re
2 CONC ception tent 4 kilometers from the shotpoint.  And I got to know a bun
2 CONC ch of Russians during many trips to Geneva.  All in all, one of the hi
2 CONC ghlights of my life -- lots of great memories (including some
2 CONT spectacular drinking sessions!), and a number of people who would fal
2 CONC l in the category of give-you-the- shirt-off-their-back friends, excep
2 CONC t that I'll probably never see them again.

1 NOTE The following is from an unpublished manuscript, written by William Ba
2 CONC rent Wemple, compiler of the first part if this genealogy from 1885-19
2 CONC 13, sent to the compiler on September 28, 2000 by Michael Lee Wemple o
2 CONC f Bay City, MI.
2 CONT 
2 CONT She was born in December 1757, near Caughnawaga. In 1780 she was marri
2 CONC ed to John Starin, a son of Philip F. A. Starin, who was born August 3
2 CONC 1, 1754. Jane died in Syracuse, NY September 7, 1840
2 CONT 
2 CONT THE STARIN FAMILY, edited by Wm. L. Stone in 1892, says that Jane Wemp
2 CONC le, wife of John Starin, died September 4, 1840, aged 88 yrs., 3 mos.
2 CONC , and 2 day. This is an error, because it would place her birth on Jun
2 CONC e 2, 1752, which was three years before her parents were married, henc
2 CONC e her age of 88 years is also incorrect. Jane and her husband are buri
2 CONC ed beside each other in a private burying-ground located at the inters
2 CONC ection of the old and new roads from Fultonville to Glen, on the hil
2 CONC l at the southern limits of the former village, situated on the farm n
2 CONC ew owned by Mr. Lewis Van Epps and which came into his possession thro
2 CONC ugh Jane's grandfather, John E. Van Epps. Jane's remains were remove
2 CONC d from Syracuse by her granddaughter, Mrs. Chas. B. Freeman, who erect
2 CONC ed a gravestone over them, which bears the record that she was born De
2 CONC c. 6, 1756.  This date is probably also incorrect and is no doubt jus
2 CONC t one year earlier than it actually occurred, because his sister, Alid
2 CONC a, was born, as shown by authentic record, in the early part of 1756 a
2 CONC nd it is improbable that Jane was born in the latter part of that sam
2 CONC e year.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jane's husband kept an inn on the south bank of the Mohawk River, dire
2 CONC ctly opposite the village of Caughnawaga, and slight traces of the fou
2 CONC ndation may still be seen (2896) on the lot facing River Street in th
2 CONC e village of Fultonville and located about one hundred and fifty fee
2 CONC t from the corner of Washington Street.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Jane was mentioned in the will of her grandfather, John E. Van Epps, w
2 CONC hich was dated July 4, 1791, and a full text of it is contained in th
2 CONC e sketch of her father.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Stone in THE STARIN FAMILY makes some very wrong statements concernin
2 CONC g Hendrick Wemple, Jane's father, but as it is unnecessary to go to th
2 CONC e length of refuting his assertions, they will be passed unremarked. T
2 CONC he liberty is taken, however, of quoting her reference to Jane:
2 CONT 
2 CONT His daughter, Jane, was also on the same Wemple family, who togethe
2 CONC r with the Fonda, Vroomans and Veeders founded in 1761, the Dutch Chur
2 CONC ch at Caughnawaga, which stone Church, erected in 1763, was pulled dow
2 CONC n in 1865. She was a very neat old lady, and her grandchildren well re
2 CONC call the short gown (spun and woven by herself) that she wore, and it
2 CONC s pockets, fastened by a string around the waist, and worm underneat
2 CONC h the gown, which had to pulled up whenever she wished to reach its co
2 CONC ntents. She always carried in it some tid-bits for the boys. She la
2 CONC d long survived the numerous atrocities which she had been compelled t
2 CONC o witness; and being a keen observer, with a remarkable retentive memo
2 CONC ry, she had in store a thousand legends of that stirring period. Ofte
2 CONC n on a winter's night, while the flames went roaring up the high chimn
2 CONC ey, and the fire-light merrily played among the flinches of bacon hang
2 CONC ing from the smoked rafters overhead, she would, as she was knittin
2 CONC g - for she was never idle - recount to her grandchildren gathered aro
2 CONC und her many adventures in a newly-settled country, and the suffering
2 CONC s endured by herself and kindred when forced to fly on the approach o
2 CONC f the savage hordes of St. Leger.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At the breaking out of the Revolution, the Wemple family, as may be i
2 CONC nferred, from what has been said, at once ranged themselves on the sid
2 CONC e of the Colonists, becoming the staunchest of most ardent Whigs in th
2 CONC e Mohawk Valley. They were together with Heinrich Staring, in the bloo
2 CONC dy fight at Oriskany, and as a consequence of their zeal, were among t
2 CONC hose marked out by Sir John Johnson and Captain Walter Butler of the t
2 CONC omahawk and firebrand. Indeed, I have now before me, as I write, an ol
2 CONC d manuscript (handed down to me my my father), yellow with age and alm
2 CONC ost crumbling to pieces on which (written more than a century ago) ar
2 CONC e inscribed in faded ink the names of those who suffered for their pat
2 CONC riotism during the raid of St. Leger, and among those names are thos
2 CONC e of the Wemple family.

2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple, Johann Myndert (always signed Myndert on deeds - Johann Mynder
2 CONC t on some legal documents).  First white settler of Wampsville.  Villa
2 CONC ge was named Wampsville for him.  Was a blacksmith and horse shoer wit
2 CONC h George Washington's Army.  He is said to have forged the huge iron c
2 CONC hain that was stretched across the Hudson River at West Point to try a
2 CONC nd prevent the British fleet in New York from sailing to Albany.  Joha
2 CONC nn Myndert was born December 28, 1765 [note discrepancy on Family Pag
2 CONC e DRW].  He was about 26 years old when he came to the present site o
2 CONC f Wampsville an August 20, 1791.  He erected a log shanty on the knol
2 CONC l near the present court house.  During the next few years he cleare
2 CONC d more land, built a better home, a blacksmith shop and 2 hotels. Wemp
2 CONC le's Taverns became popular stopping places.
2 CONT 
2 CONT JOHANN M. WEMPLE
2 CONT The Father of Wampsville
2 CONT by George W. Walter
2 CONT 
2 CONT There was a time when George Washington, first president of the Unite
2 CONC d States, must have thought that present Wampsville might become the c
2 CONC apitol of the United States.  This is the tradition handed down to des
2 CONC cendants of Johann Myndert Wemple, reputed first white settler of Madi
2 CONC son County's county seat, according to Willis Tuttle, Hoboken, a grea
2 CONC t grandson.  The family legend reveal that Wemple, also known as Von o
2 CONC r Van Wemple, was advised by Washington at the end of the Revolutionar
2 CONC y War to go and settle in the central part of New York State - then al
2 CONC most a primeval wilderness.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple was a Dutchman, who served as a blacksmith and horse shoer wit
2 CONC h Washington's army.  He is said to have forged the huge iron chain th
2 CONC at was stretched across the Hudson River at West Point to try and prev
2 CONC ent the British fleet from sailing to Albany.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It must be stated there is a great deal of truth in these Wemple famil
2 CONC y legends.  The Wemple family gained renown in the Mohawk Valley bot
2 CONC h prior to and during the Revolution for their patriotism.  Sir Willia
2 CONC m Johnson, head of Indian affairs, sent Myndert Wemp (same family), al
2 CONC so also a blacksmith, into the Seneca Country to reside and follow hi
2 CONC s trade and also to keep a wary eye on Cornplanter and other chiefs
2 CONC .  Wemp stayed in the Indian country until he was driven out durin
2 CONC g a minor famine.  He reported his findings to the Irish baronet at Fo
2 CONC rt Johnson on April 20, 1756.  In his report, Wemp told how John Abee
2 CONC l or Cornplanter was selling great qualities of rum to the Indians.  S
2 CONC ir William Johnson promptly shut off trade goods for a time.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple's Tavern near Johnstown was also a favorite gathering place fo
2 CONC r both Patriots and Tories, only pretty Peggy Wemple [Margaret Fonda
2 CONC , wife of Barent Wemple who died in 1771 DRW] reported the activitie
2 CONC s of the Tories to Washington.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Willis Tuttle related recently he can still remember how his ancestor'
2 CONC s most noted hotel looked when he was a boy.  Located on the turnpike
2 CONC , just west of the present Court Street, there were rear doors large e
2 CONC nough to drive an ox team into the hotel hauling logs for the huge fir
2 CONC eplaces. The hotel also had the distinction of having each guest roo
2 CONC m numbered. The barns and wagon shed that housed the Conestoga wagons
2 CONC , the carriages and wagons of the passing immigrants, as well as thei
2 CONC r stock stood until recent years in the rear of the hotel.  The buildi
2 CONC ng, now greatly remodeled, still stands, and is owned by Carlton Sweet
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT When Wemple first came to the site of the present village, he carrie
2 CONC d with him some $12,000 in English gold and Spanish silver.  With thi
2 CONC s money he purchased from the Oneida Indians on contract over 3,000 ac
2 CONC res of land.  About 20 years later he was forced to repurchase it fro
2 CONC m the State, but was allowed considerable rebate on his title.

2 CONT WAMPSVILLE, NEW YORK
2 CONT An Historical Sketch
2 CONT by
2 CONT George B. Russell, Esq. 1909
2 CONT 
2 CONT THE EARLY SETTLERS
2 CONT Myndert Wemple was undoubtedly the first while settler at Wampsville
2 CONC .  He came there some time about 1784.  He was then 20 years of age, h
2 CONC ad been in General Washington's army, was a blacksmith by trade and sh
2 CONC od Washington's horses.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple located near the corner just across from Mayor McConnell's home
2 CONC , and erected a blacksmith shop, the location of which there is no que
2 CONC stion about, as Melvin Getman has plowed the land and has found old fo
2 CONC rgings, large quantities of cinders and some ox-shoes, presumably mad
2 CONC e by the hand of Myndert Wemple.  He also built a mill there and a hou
2 CONC se where Miss Van De Walker now lives, carved the door-casings, and th
2 CONC e rooms were all numbered.  He also built the hotel that John Haley us
2 CONC ed to run and another hotel near the Hebron Spencer place, in front o
2 CONC f which is the sulphur spring which flows like an artesian well.  Thi
2 CONC s hotel has since been moved and is now occupied by Ed Sults.  I am in
2 CONC formed that in front of the last hotel there was a large willow tree
2 CONC , which was crotched, and many years ago before there head been place
2 CONC d in the crotch of the tree an ox's head, through which the water of t
2 CONC he sulphur spring flowed, the tree having grown completely around th
2 CONC e head and all that could be seen of it was the horns and the mouth.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The following is from a manuscript sent to the compiler on September 2
2 CONC 8, 2000 by Michael Lee Wemple of Bay City, MI. This manuscript was wri
2 CONC tten by William Barent Wemple, compiler of the first part if this gene
2 CONC alogy from 1885-1913. The manuscript was never published.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was born November 28, 1764, near Caughnawaga and was baptized in th
2 CONC e church at that place January 27, 1765. He was married, first, to Nan
2 CONC cy Winn, on January 1, 1791. Nancy died January 24, 1796, in giving bi
2 CONC rth to her daughter, Eveline. He married for his second wife, Sarah Va
2 CONC n Alstine, July 16, 1797, their marriage being recorded in the Reforme
2 CONC d Church at Stone Arabia. Sarah was a daughter of Martin J. and Nanc
2 CONC y Van Alstine. She was born June 16, 1773 and died November 25, 1852
2 CONC , Myndert died June 28, 1837. He and his second wife died and are buri
2 CONC ed at Wampsville, Madison County, NY. where they rest side by side; th
2 CONC e gravestones still remain standing a the heads of their graves and th
2 CONC e inscription on them reads as follows: Myndert Wimple died June 28
2 CONC , 1837, aged 71 years, 7months, Sarah, wife of Myndert Wimple, die
2 CONC d November 25, 1852, aged 79 yrs., 5 mos., 9 days.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Martin J. Van Alstine, Sarah's father, was called Big Tree by the In
2 CONC dians. Sarah's mother who was born in 1733 and died at Myndert Wemple'
2 CONC s in Wampsville, in 1831, is spoken of to quite an extent by J. Clemen
2 CONC t in his NOBLE DEEDS OF NOBLE WOMEN. She was one on a family of fiftee
2 CONC n children.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert Wemple moved out into Madison County in the early part of 1800
2 CONC , where he kept a hotel, or tavern as it was called in those days, an
2 CONC d around him clustered a few hardy pioneers but, as he was at all time
2 CONC s the leading spirit of that then wild section, the settlement becam
2 CONC e know as Wamps, which was the very usual and customary way of prono
2 CONC uncing, or rather, mispronouncing, he name, as this short and flat cor
2 CONC ruption was the generally accepted given to a Wemple.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After more people came within the confines of the locality and it assu
2 CONC med the proportions of a village, the old name still clung and the des
2 CONC ignation of Wampsville was given to it. Upon the establishment o
2 CONC f a post-office at the place, no change was made in the name, so, fo
2 CONC r nearly a century now, has been handed down the ugly corruption of th
2 CONC e surname of him in whose honor it was bestowed.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On April 6, 1803, the Legislature, during its twenty-seventh session
2 CONC , by Chapter 106, enacted as follows: And, be further enacted, That i
2 CONC t shall be lawful for the commissioners, of the land-office, to issu
2 CONC e letters patent to Myndert Wemple, hie heirs and assigns, for one hun
2 CONC dred acres of land, to be laid out in a square, and to extend each wa
2 CONC y from the house now occupied by the said Myndert Wemple, along the Ge
2 CONC nesee road, fifteen chains, and from thence northerly fourteen chains
2 CONC , and southerly twenty chains, he the said Myndert Wemple paying there
2 CONC for, into the treasury of this state, the sum of one hundred dollars.
2 CONC  The payment was made and he land was deeded to him.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Among the positions of trust and honor conferred upon him, was that o
2 CONC f paymaster of the Indians.
2 CONT 
2 CONT His granddaughter, Mrs. Fanny L. Harding, of Cleveland, OH, has in pos
2 CONC session his commission as Ensign of a regiment of militia in the count
2 CONC y of Chenango, Colonel John Lencklaen, commanding; it was issued May 5
2 CONC , 1800 and is signed by Jasper Hopper, secretary, and John Jay, Govern

1 NOTE The following was sent to me by William Westbrook Wemple, Jr. on Apri
2 CONC l 27, 1996.  William obtained the story from Mary Hayes of Fonda, NY.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In the town of Fonda there's a Wemple Street down by the Mohawk River
2 CONC . Behind it to the east is a . . . old, broken down small wooden hous
2 CONC e belonging to Mary Hayes.   (I went to Mary's house), I knocked on th
2 CONC e door, explained who my brother and his wife, and my wife and I wer
2 CONC e (and) they invited us in.  (The old house turned out to be Margare
2 CONC t Fonda Wemple's.) (Margaret) Peggy was apparently very well known
2 CONC .   In late December of 1994 I got a bulky envelope from her and in i
2 CONC t was a hand written account of a newspaper article re; Peggy Wemple
2 CONC :  It follows:
2 CONT 
2 CONT She's the most beautiful red haired woman in the the Mohawk Valley.
2 CONC  These were the sentiments of many patriots in the reference to Marga
2 CONC ret (Fonda) Wemple, widow of Barent Wemple of Caughnawaga.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Barent Wemple was accomplished in the Seneca Indian tongue and conduct
2 CONC ed numerous missions to the Indians on behalf of the white settlers an
2 CONC d acted many times as an interpreter.  Barent was one of one hundred p
2 CONC atentees to whom one hundred thousand acres of land was granted Novemb
2 CONC er 30,1769.  This land was on the south side of the Mohawk River.  O
2 CONC n April 29 and May 22,1765, he attended a conference with the Six Nati
2 CONC ons and the Delawares at Johnson Hall, Johnstown, NY in the capacity o
2 CONC f interpreter.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Peggy Wemple became a widow when her husband, Barent, died on July 4
2 CONC , 1771, four years prior to the Revolutionary War.  She was left wit
2 CONC h unusual cares and responsibilities which she met with remarkable ene
2 CONC rgy and heroism.  After the death of her husband, she kept a tavern i
2 CONC n Fonda, NY near Cayadutta Street.  This house/tavern was later move
2 CONC d to its present location (where William saw it) on the corner of Caya
2 CONC dutta Street.  George Mills, who lived in the red brick house on Mill
2 CONC s Terrace and Putman Avenue, had it moved because it blocked his vie
2 CONC w of the Mohawk River.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Peggy also operated a grist mill near Cay Creek, across from the taver
2 CONC n. Her son, Myndert, also helped her.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The story is told of how, one winter night, she had to go to the mil
2 CONC l on an errand and found an Indian blocking her path.  She was relieve
2 CONC d although a little startled to find it was a stiff corpse, placed the
2 CONC re to intimidate her.
2 CONT 
2 CONT During the frightful raid by Sir John Johnson, on the Caughnawaga sett
2 CONC lement in May 1780, Peggy Wemple suffered with the other patriots. Th
2 CONC e enemy took her son, Myndert, a prisoner, shut her up in her tavern a
2 CONC nd set fire to it.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From the upper window she made the valley echo with her cries of help
2 CONC , help, murder, murder.  John Fonda heard her cries and sent a slav
2 CONC e around the knoll which stood west of the Fonda Hotel, to learn the c
2 CONC ause fo the alarm.  But, hardly had the slave returned before the enem
2 CONC y's advanced taking Fonda a prisoner and burning his dwelling.  Pegg
2 CONC y Wemple was finally released and saved from her burning tavern.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Douw Fonda b. 1700 d. 1780, Peggy's father, was murdered at this tim
2 CONC e by an Indian, named one arm Peter, to whom he had often shown much k
2 CONC indness.  He was led to the river and there slain.
2 CONT 
2 CONT When Douw Fonda died he willed to his daughter, Margaret, one hundre
2 CONC d pounds of current money of New York, also one forth of all the res
2 CONC t of the estate, including all his Negroes; Africa, Jacob, Catherine a
2 CONC nd his horses, except one horse (which) he granted to his son, Jelle
2 CONC s Fonda, as his birthright, cows, oxen, calf, sheep, hogs, pigs, etc.
2 CONC , including all his livestock of every kind, also his farming utensil
2 CONC s and household goods.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The boy, Myndert Wemple, was released by the Indians in Johnstown, N
2 CONC Y and allowed to find his way home to his mother in Caughnawaga.  Undi
2 CONC smayed by the damage done to her tavern and mill, Peggy built again an
2 CONC d in the winter of 1780, she ground and boulted 2700 skepples (202
2 CONC 5 bushels) of wheat at the order of the Tryon County Committee for th
2 CONC e use of the Colonial soldiers at Forts Ticonderoga, Hunter, Plank an
2 CONC d Stanwix.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Margaret died March 12, 1819, age eighty-five years, three months, an
2 CONC d twenty-two days.  She had been a widow for forty-seven years.  Her r
2 CONC emains were buried in the old cemetery which was originally just eas
2 CONC t of the Montgomery County Agricultural Society grounds on the river f
2 CONC lats, near the Mohawk River.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A gravestone in excellent preservation marked the spot.  Some years ag
2 CONC o, when the abandoned burial grounds were in danger of being destroyed
2 CONC , Peggy Wemple's remains and her red sandstone tombstone were taken u
2 CONC p and moved to a Wemple lot in the Evergreen Cemetery near Fonda, NY w
2 CONC here she now rests. This work was done by Clarence Wemple of Chicago
2 CONC , Illinois, descendent of Barent M. and Peggy Wemple.
2 CONT 
2 CONT So ends the tale of Margaret (Peggy) Wemple, courageous and fearless w
2 CONC oman patriot who is revered still by her descendants in the Mohawk Val
2 CONC ley.

2 CONC n the State Capital Library, Adam signed his name with an E rather t
2 CONC han an I.  However in a family Bible owned by Morton Wimple, of Sloa

2 CONT FIENDISH MURDER
2 CONT 
2 CONT The wife of Adam E. Wimple was murdered in Polk county Oregon on the 1
2 CONC st of August, and an attempt was made to conceal the crime by settin
2 CONC g fire to the house containing her remains.  The home was totally dest
2 CONC royed, but the body was so far unconsumed as to be identified.  The hu
2 CONC sband has fled, and it is supposed he was the murder.  The sheriff o
2 CONC f Polk county has offered five hundred dollars reward for his arrest
2 CONC , and parties are in pursuit of him.  It is believed he has fled north
2 CONC , and will endeavor to escape on some vessel.  He is described as bein
2 CONC g about thirty-five years of age, five feet ten inches high, and ha
2 CONC s black eyes.  We have not been able to obtain fuller particulars o
2 CONC f the foul deed.  Wimple was married about 18 months since in Washingt
2 CONC on county, to a girl less than thirteen years of age.  They quarrele
2 CONC d soon after and parted. Mrs. W returned to her father.  Subsequentl
2 CONC y they were reconciled, but it was said never lived happily together
2 CONC .  He formally resided in Portland and we believe still owns propert
2 CONC y in that city.
2 CONT 
2 CONT LATER - Just as we were going to press we were informed that Wimple ha
2 CONC d been taken and was in irons in Polk county.  We do not know whethe
2 CONC r the report is correct or not.

2 CONT THE MURDER AND ARSON IN POLK COUNTY
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wimple has been examined before a justice, and committed to await hi
2 CONC s trial at the district court.  The sheriff has notified Judge Nelso
2 CONC n of the commitment.  A special session may be holden for his trial.
2 CONT 
2 CONT We learn that the examination elicited the following facts.  Wimple fo
2 CONC rmally lived in Benton county; when the mines were discovered (in Cali

2 CONT THE TRIAL OF WIMPLE
2 CONT 
2 CONT Adam E. Wimple, indicted for the murder of Mary Wimple, his wife, in P
2 CONC olk County, was brought to this county upon a change of venue, for tri
2 CONC al. His trial commenced in this city on Monday, before Judge Nelson, a
2 CONC nd lasted until Wednesday evening, when the jury returned a verdict o
2 CONC f guilty of murder in the first degree.  They stood, upon first retiri
2 CONC ng, six for conviction of murder in the first and five in the second d
2 CONC egree, and one undecided.  After remaining out about one hour, they ca
2 CONC me in and asked if premeditation was sufficient evidence for a verdic
2 CONC t of guilty of murder in the first degree.  The court instructed the
2 CONC m that it was, and they again retired, soon returning with the above-n
2 CONC amed verdict.  The defendant's gave notice of a motion for the arres
2 CONC t of judgment, and for a new trial on the grounds of misdirection of t
2 CONC he judge and that the verdict was against evidence.  The motion was ar
2 CONC gued Tuesday evening, Mr. Deady in favor of, and Messrs. Campbell an
2 CONC d Boice contra.  It was denied by the Court, the counsel for the defen
2 CONC se taking exception to the ruling. The sentence of the law was pronoun
2 CONC ced on Friday, and there, was that he be remanded back to Polk county
2 CONC , and there, on the 8th day of October, 1852, and between the hours o
2 CONC f 9 and 11 A.M. be hanged by the neck until he is dead.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The prisoner is about forty years of age and of about medium size.  Hi
2 CONC s countenance indicates a weak mind and a harmless disposition.  He se
2 CONC emed to be perfectly indifferent during the trial, and scarcely consci
2 CONC ous of what was going on around him.  When the verdict was announced h
2 CONC e exhibited no change and manifested no perceptible interest.  The onl
2 CONC y occasions on which he manifested much sensation was when his domesti
2 CONC c difficulties and the last tragic scene was referred to.  Then he man
2 CONC ifested much sensation, and was, sometimes effected to tears.  He seem
2 CONC s, from all the evidence, and from his conduct during the trial, to ha
2 CONC ve been devotedly attached to his unfortunate wife, notwithstanding hi
2 CONC s destruction of her life.  The prisoner was ably defended by M.P. Dea
2 CONC dy of Yamhill, and A.B.P. Wood of Polk county.  The prosecution was al
2 CONC so ably sustained by Messrs. Campbell and Thorton.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The jury was composed of the following persons: Harden Gammon, teamste
2 CONC r; Wm. F. Highfield, watch-maker; Ronald Crawford, wharf-boat keeper
2 CONC ; William Gird, grocer; Jno. Potter, shoemaker; Wm. S. Baker, farmer,
2 CONC ; Jno. M. Bacon, farmer; Wm. Barlow, town proprietor; Thomas Waterbury
2 CONC , farmer; Wm. Hawkins, farmer; David Burnsides, mechanic; Orville Risl
2 CONC ay, farmer. Eleven were preemptory challenged by the defense and two b
2 CONC y the prosecution.  Three were challenged by the defense and two by th
2 CONC e prosecution for cause.  Three had formed an opinion adverse to the p
2 CONC risoner's innocence, and two had conscientious scruples against render
2 CONC ing a verdict of guilty where punishment by death may follow.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A large number of witnessed were called on the part of the prosecution
2 CONC , who were aware mainly of the same set of facts.  Several witnesses w
2 CONC ere also called on the part of the defense, who did not materially con
2 CONC tradict the testimony of the witnesses for the prosecution.  The evide
2 CONC nce was, in substance, as follows: - they were married in the fall o
2 CONC f 1850.  In the course of a few months she left him and returned to sh
2 CONC e step father, with whom she formerly lived.  Wimple instituted lega
2 CONC l process and caused her to return to him.  About six months before th
2 CONC e murder he was heard to threaten to kill her if she ever left him aga
2 CONC in.  On the morning of the murder, and two or three hours prior to it
2 CONC s commission, persons were at Wimple's house, but saw nothing unusual
2 CONC .  All the testimony described in his deportment towards her as bein
2 CONC g of a kind and affectionate character; hers towards him was shown t
2 CONC o have been, on many occasions, rude and violent.  The dwelling was fo
2 CONC und burned, and the burned bones of a body, together with a lump of fl
2 CONC esh weighing five or six pounds and being a portion of one of the hips
2 CONC , was found among the ashes.
2 CONT 
2 CONT We believe, also, some rings and beads - identified as those sometime
2 CONC s worn by Mrs. Wimple - were found among the remains.  No medical test
2 CONC imony was offered to prove that they were parts of a human body.  Beyo
2 CONC nd this, the evidence of guilt depended entirely upon the prisoner's c
2 CONC onfessions. They were to the following effect: That, on the morning o
2 CONC f the murder, his wife quarreled with him, tearing off his shirt, pull
2 CONC ing his hair, and biting him in several places on the arm; and that wh
2 CONC ile he was in the act of putting on another shirt, she caught up a pis
2 CONC tol, and saying, By God, I can shoot as well as you or anybody else,
2 CONC  fired at him, the ball passing through the shirt held in his hands
2 CONC ; whereupon he seized the pistol and struck her three times on the hea
2 CONC d, felling her at the first or second blow, and she saying before th
2 CONC e third was given, Don't kill me and I will go to the States with you
2 CONC . (He had desired her to go to the States with him, and she had refus
2 CONC ed to go.)  He says he thought he had inflicted a mortal wound, and h
2 CONC e stuck her the third time, to put her out of her misery.  He then
2 CONC , for the first time, became conscious that he had killed her, and wa
2 CONC s very much troubled about it.  He put the body in a hole under the fl
2 CONC oor, and, setting fire to the house, saddled his horse and fled, inten
2 CONC ding to destroy his own life, but he had no cap for his pistol, whic
2 CONC h he re-loaded, and therefore could not shoot himself as intended.  H
2 CONC e then ate many roots he supposed were poisonous, designing to destro
2 CONC y his life in that way.  But they had no effect.  He was found by Judg
2 CONC e Nesmith in the woods.  Seeing him at a distance, Wimple came toward
2 CONC s him and inquired if Judge N had seen his horse, which he had lost
2 CONC .  Judge N asked him if he knew his house was burned; he answered, No
2 CONC .  The Judge then seized hold of his arms, and said, Wimple, I mus
2 CONC t tie you.  He said, Very well, tie me then, and offered no resista
2 CONC nce. He had the pistol with which the fatal deed was committed, and al
2 CONC so a knife in his bosom.  He also had of the shirt which he says recei
2 CONC ved the pistol ball fired by his wife.  Both that, and the pistol wer
2 CONC e produced in court.  The shirt had a large hole through one of the sl
2 CONC eeves, the edges of which were scorched and blackened.  The pistol wa
2 CONC s a large one, of the kind commonly called a horse pistol.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It seems the when the prisoner left his wife, her life was not extinct
2 CONC , for the remains were found in one corner of the room, and not in th
2 CONC e place where he says he put the body.  She was probably but stunned b
2 CONC y the blows inflicted with the pistol, and afterwards reviving, crawle
2 CONC d to the corner of the room, where she was burned.  When told of thi
2 CONC s fact, he manifested great sorrow, bursting into tears, and exclaimin
2 CONC g, Is it possibly I didn't kill her, and that the poor, dear, thing w
2 CONC as burnt to death?
2 CONT 
2 CONT After his arrest he made his escape, and, as he states, visited the ru
2 CONC ins of his former residence, (about five miles distance) in the neighb
2 CONC orhood of which he remained for two days and nights, but finally, gett
2 CONC ing hungry, he gave himself up.   He says he has respectable relative
2 CONC s in New York, and does not want them disgraced by his execution.  H
2 CONC e has been in Oregon since 1845, and at one time had acquired consider
2 CONC able wealth.  He dug about ten thousand dollars from the California mi
2 CONC nes (gold fields DRW).  He established the character of an industrious
2 CONC , peaceful man as stated by several witnesses, a number of them calle
2 CONC d by the prosecution. His wife was less than thirteen years old when m
2 CONC arried, and from her own confessions had been unchaste both before an
2 CONC d after the marriage.

2 CONT CONFESSION OF ADAM E. WIMPLE
2 CONT 
2 CONT Before parting this life, I deem it my duty to make an open and ful
2 CONC l confession to the world of my past life and conduct.  I was born i
2 CONC n the State of New York, Oneida county, in the town of Lenox, in the m
2 CONC onth of December, 1815. I was raised by religious and upright parents
2 CONC , who spared no pains in teaching me religious and moral habits, and w
2 CONC hose advice, had I taken, would have saved me from the shameful deat
2 CONC h that now awaits me. I remained in my native state 'till 1845, at whi
2 CONC ch time I bid adieu to kindred and friends, and set to to seek a new h
2 CONC ome in this Territory.  I arrived here in the month of October followi
2 CONC ng, and on the 15th of that month took a claim on Mary's river, and pr
2 CONC oceeded to improve it.  I resided on my claim 'till the autumn of '4
2 CONC 9 - then left my claim and went to the mines; came back in June follow
2 CONC ing.  My people had written to me to come home, so I concluded to sel
2 CONC l my claim and go.  I sold, and proceeded on my journey as far as Port
2 CONC land, O.T., and by persuasion of my friends bought property in that to
2 CONC wn and proceeded to improve it.  About the 4th of July, I commenced ke
2 CONC eping tavern.  Sometime after rented my property, and peddled goods i
2 CONC n Tuality Plains during the summer.  In the fall left my goods at Mr
2 CONC . Davis' to be sold.  In a short time afterwards, put up a store in th
2 CONC at neighborhood.  Soon afterwards Mr. Allen came to my store to buy go
2 CONC ods, and observed that I was well situated, and ought to marry - obser
2 CONC ved that he had a fine girl at his house and would be much pleased t
2 CONC o have me call over to see her.  I told him I would come at some conve
2 CONC nient time, but did not go.  In about three weeks Allen came again an
2 CONC d made known to me his desire as before.  I told him I would come, an
2 CONC d in a few days went - had a conversation with Miss Allen, (as she wa
2 CONC s called) and told her that I liked her appearance, and if she wishe
2 CONC d to marry and liked me, that I hoped she would make up her mind i
2 CONC n a week, and I would come back.  At the end of the week I went - aske
2 CONC d her if she had made up her mind.  She replied, I have, and could ha
2 CONC ve told you before.  She said that she wanted to get married soon
2 CONC .  I told her to set the date, and she said, Next Sunday.  I wante
2 CONC d to make a wedding.  Mr. and Mrs. Allen and Mary said they didn't wan
2 CONC t to make any, and said for me not to tell any body about it.  I aske
2 CONC d Mary if she had any wedding clothes.  She said that she had none
2 CONC .  I told Mr. Allen to come to my store and get the necessary articles
2 CONC , which he did to the amount of $40.00.  The next day came and we wer
2 CONC e married.  Mr. Allen requested me to move to his house to live.  I to
2 CONC ld him I could not.  In a few days we went home accompanied by Mrs. Al
2 CONC len - (this was January, 1851).  The next spring, by the permission o
2 CONC f Mr. Allen, I moved my goods and family to his home, which many of m
2 CONC y neighbors said was a bad move for me; but having the utmost confiden
2 CONC ce in Mr. Allen, I would not  hear in them.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I soon saw my property was going to wreck, and that I must leave ther
2 CONC e if I wished to preserve my property, so I told Mr. Allen I was goin
2 CONC g to move home which made him, Mr. Allen, and my wife very angry.  Th
2 CONC e more I insisted on going the more their anger appeared to increase
2 CONC .  I told my wife we must leave - that it was our duty to take care o
2 CONC f our property. We went, however, greatly to the displeasure of Mr. an
2 CONC d Mrs. Allen and my wife.  After staying at home sometime, Mr. Allen (
2 CONC being very much displeased with my situation) said that my wife wa
2 CONC s a fool to live with me, and if she would leave me he would protect h
2 CONC er, and shortly afterwards she ran away.  I went several times after h
2 CONC er to get her to come back, but she would not come.  Finally, Mr. Alle
2 CONC n told me that if I would sign away half of my property to my wife tha
2 CONC t she would come back. I told him I would not, for all that I had wa
2 CONC s hers.  He replied, If you do not you shall leave my premises and ne
2 CONC ver come back.  I then left Mr. Allen's and afterwards wrote a lette
2 CONC r to my wife informing her that if she did not come back I would hav
2 CONC e her back by law; but she would not come.  I than proceeded in law an
2 CONC d got her back.  I paid the cost rather than distress my mother-in-law
2 CONC .  After this my wife would not live in that settlement, for the reaso
2 CONC n that the neighbors talked about her.  She requested me to move to Po
2 CONC lk county, near her uncle (Mr. Lee's) and I did so.   After living the
2 CONC re two or three months during which time they treated me very wel
2 CONC l - I moved to a claim that I bought of Mr. Jenkins. In a short time a
2 CONC fterwards I left my wife at home with a girl of Mr. Bowman's and wen
2 CONC t to Portland [HE WENT ON A BUSINESS TRIP TO BUY GOODS FOR A BUSINES
2 CONC S HE PLANNED TO START. DRW],  and returned in a few days. My wife tol
2 CONC d me that, during my absence, Mr. Cheory (who was living at Mr. Lee's
2 CONC ) had insulted her on the highway, and she wanted me to take my pisto
2 CONC l and blow his brains out.  I told her I would not, but would tell Mr
2 CONC . Lee and if he was a gentleman he would drive him off.  So my wife an
2 CONC d I went to Lee's and I told him about Cheory, how he had acted toward
2 CONC s my wife.  He and Mr. and Mrs. Lee observed that he only said a few p
2 CONC articular words to my wife.  I told my wife that we had better go hom
2 CONC e and we went.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Previous to the of my wife we visited her grandfather's where we wer
2 CONC e well treated.  They visited us during our stay here.  My wife an
2 CONC d I visited her parents every two or three months and we requested the
2 CONC m to visit us.  But they would pass by and not call.  From the appeara
2 CONC nce of things I thought that was a pleasure for me unless I could chan
2 CONC ge my situation.  So I proposed to move to the States to my wife to wh
2 CONC ich she consented.  I then advertised my claim and property for sale
2 CONC .  Soon afterwards we went to her mother's to stay for awhile whil
2 CONC e I was making preparations to go.  In a few days I had an opportunit
2 CONC y to sell my claim and had to go home to sign the deed.  Previous to o
2 CONC ur leaving  Mr. Allen's, Mrs. Allen said she was glad we were going t
2 CONC o the States.  That she believed it was best for us and that Mr. Alle
2 CONC n would die in a few years and then she would come.  Before leavin
2 CONC g I gave Mrs. Allen $8.00 to buy my wife some dresses.  I supposed sh
2 CONC e was willing and that was alright.  We shook hands and parted in peac
2 CONC e, little thinking that we would never see each other again.  My wife
2 CONC , we took dinner at Mr. Shelton's on Yamhill.  After we left my wife c
2 CONC ommenced abusing me; said that I made her tell a story; that I was th
2 CONC e meanest man in the world; that she would not go with me anywhere an
2 CONC d caught at my hair to pull it. I told her that I was not.  She sai
2 CONC d I made her acknowledge to Mr. Allen's conduct towards her.  I told h
2 CONC er she knew better.  She said, You should not have told my mother
2 CONC .  I told her that she had told her mother first and that after long p
2 CONC ersuasion by her mother I told her.  We had a very unpleasant time th
2 CONC e remainder of the way home.  After getting home, we went to bed peace
2 CONC fully.  The next morning she told me that she would not go with me t
2 CONC o the States.  I ask her why she had not told me at her mother's so th
2 CONC at we could have brought her clothes home.  She said that I told her t
2 CONC o leave them.  I observed that I thought she was going with me to th
2 CONC e States and that was the reason I I told her to leave them.  This wa
2 CONC s Saturday morning.  Sunday morning we had visitors.  One of the ladie
2 CONC s asked me how I got along.  I told her I had not seen any peace sinc
2 CONC e I was married.   They stayed awhile and went home.  I told Mr. Cox
2 CONC , one of the visitors, that my wife and I would pay them a visit in th
2 CONC e evening and I intended to go not thinking what was to befall me.  Af
2 CONC ter they left, my wife commenced abusing me and saying that I had no
2 CONC t seen any peace since marriage.  I told her it was the truth, but i
2 CONC f she would be a good girl that we would live happy.  She said she tre
2 CONC ated me better than I deserved and she intended to leave me and starte
2 CONC d in the direction of Mr. Cox's.  I went after her and persuaded her t
2 CONC o come back.  She came back.  She got angry, caught hold of my shirt a
2 CONC nd tore it off and bit my arm.  I told her to be a pretty girl and no
2 CONC t do so.  Then I went and sat down at the table and said, Oh, Mary, m
2 CONC y beloved companion, I wished you would only hear to me and take my ad
2 CONC vise.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT She replied, Yes, I'm a damned pretty, beloved companion.  I asked h
2 CONC er if she had a clean shirt.  She said I had one in the other room
2 CONC .  I went to put it on and when I was raising the shirt to put it ove
2 CONC r my head, she came in with my pistil in her hand and said, Damned yo
2 CONC u, I can shoot as well as you, and fired at me.  I held the shirt i
2 CONC n the same position and dodged to one side.  The ball passed through t
2 CONC he shirt sleeve, not the body.  I became enraged.  My brain appeared t
2 CONC o turn up.  I caught hold of the pistol and struck her on the head.  S
2 CONC he fell towards me with her face down.  I followed up the blow and a
2 CONC s I raised the pistil to strike a second blow she said in a low tone
2 CONC , I'll go the States.  I struck her a second time and she expired
2 CONC .  I then put her in the cellar and set fire to the house.  I went ou
2 CONC t and caught my mare and saddled her and went and saw that she, my wif
2 CONC e, was dead.  I shut the door on my house and went in the direction o
2 CONC f Mr. Foster's.  When I got to the divide between my place and Mr. Fos
2 CONC ter's, I came to myself.  I then began to think of what I had done.  O
2 CONC h, I had killed my beloved companion.  I would give a thousand world

2 CONC at Adam E. Wemple (Wimple) may have been the one who named Mary's Peak
2 CONC , Mary's River and Marysville, later renamed Corvallis. This article a
2 CONC lso offered two other possibilities as how the name Mary came to be us
2 CONC ed, both of which have long escaped my memory.  Mary's Peak is the mos
2 CONC t prominent peak in the Corvallis area and is to the west of the city
2 CONC . Mary's Peak can readily be seen while traveling along Interstate 5
2 CONC . Mary's River is more of a stream that floes through the section of l
2 CONC and that Adam took up in 1845, under the terms of the Provisional Gove
2 CONC rnment of the Oregon Territory.  The Provisional Government was forme
2 CONC d by the citizens of the area before any government was available to g

2 CONC s soon as America claimed the northwest territory, the Provisional Gov
2 CONC ernment was disbanded in favor of the government of the Oregon Territo

1 NOTE An excerpt from the book titled Community Spotlight: Leeds Frontenac
2 CONC , Lennox and Addington, and Prince Edward Counties, edited by Nick an

2 CONC r on Millhaven written by Kathleen H. Gibson: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT . . . Millhaven Inn was once the Wemp Hotel. Benjamin Wemp, my grandfa
2 CONC ther, owned it in the 1850's. The house had eighteen rooms, six firepl
2 CONC aces, and in the kitchen was a large fireplace with a Dutch oven at th
2 CONC e end for baking bread. The first county court was held at this hotel
2 CONC . The house was passed on to my father, Frederick Wemp who lived ther
2 CONC e for seventy-five years. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT At the east end of the house was our garden and my father plowed up pi
2 CONC eces of flint and a tomahawk or two, so we presumed it was once an Ind
2 CONC ian burying ground. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The only landmark left on the farm which consisted of fifty acres of l
2 CONC and on the north side of Highway 33 is a red barn, which was built sev
2 CONC enty years ago, the timbers being drawn by horses and sleighs from Th
2 CONC e Rathbun Lumber Mill at Deseronto.  . . .

2 CONT 
2 CONT I enjoyed visiting with you by phone last weekend.  As promised, I che
2 CONC cked back on my reference regarding the Wemple-Westinghouse threshin
2 CONC g machine.  This is what I found: It was a blacksmith named Jacob Wemp
2 CONC le that got an 1845 patent on a specific feature of a threshing machin
2 CONC e . . . that was the flat blade tooth bolted to the threshing cylind
2 CONC er.  See the small sidebar^ I've copied for you from page 5, Vol. 1, F

2 CONT ^Sidebar text mentioned above is as follows:
2 CONT 
2 CONT OTHERS DEVELOP SIMILAR THRESHING MACHINES
2 CONT 
2 CONT In Schenectady, New York, in 1845, a blacksmith named Jacob Wemple dev
2 CONC eloped a thresher design and went into partnership with George Westing
2 CONC house (father of the man who would make air brake fame). The two buil
2 CONC t a thresher that combined the bull thresher with a fanning mill to ob
2 CONC tain the same general results as Case's machine.  Patented and markete
2 CONC d under Wemple's name, Westinghouse withdrew from the partnership afte
2 CONC r a short period of time.  Wemple ultimately sold his patent to Hira
2 CONC m Pitts.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The technical significance of the Wemple-Westinghouse patent was the t
2 CONC ype of the teeth used in the cylinder.  Originally, pegs were driven i
2 CONC nto the large wooden cylinder.  These occasionally came loose and wer
2 CONC e hurled at high speeds when the machine was running.  Wemple and West
2 CONC inghouse discovered that a flat blade-type tooth bolted to the cylinde
2 CONC r was superior.  Their thresher was the U.S. sales leader until 1867
2 CONC , when the Aultman and Taylor Company of Mansfield, Ohio, began manufa
2 CONC cturing a machine called the Vibrator. . .

2 CONT . . . An obituary notice published at the time of his death, says,
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple's character was marked by many of those traits and distinc
2 CONC tive features, which was his indeed by right of inheritance and whic
2 CONC h are peculiar to the strong and sturdy Hollanders. He learned the tra
2 CONC de of a blacksmith and in 1816 moved to Albany where he afterwards eng
2 CONC aged in the iron-railing business under the name of Wemple & Hathaway
2 CONC . It was he, who, in 1833, built the railing around the Old Capitol a
2 CONC t Albany and around the the two steeple Dutch Church. During his resid
2 CONC ence in Albany he was given a commission as Adjutant of the 246th regi
2 CONC ment of Infantry of New York, signed by Enos T. Throop, Governor of th
2 CONC e State, and John A Dix, Adjutant General. Mr. Wemple was of a thought
2 CONC ful, reflective mind, having a genius for invention, and in 1834, whil
2 CONC e in business in Utica, he invented and patented the steel bearing pla
2 CONC tform scales. These scales had a large sale and had he inventor retain
2 CONC ed the patent, he would have amassed a large fortune but he sold the p
2 CONC atent and the purchaser reaped a large pecuniary harvest. In 1840, Mr
2 CONC . Wemple removed to his native place, Fonda, where he lived until 1854
2 CONC . His marked individuality and strength of character were acknowledge
2 CONC d and highly appreciated by his fellow townsmen. His life was marked b
2 CONC y modesty, purity, strict integrity and a firm and sound judgment. H
2 CONC e was eminently a man of strict justice in all his dealings and requir
2 CONC ements. So keen was his sense and so exact his behavior that often h
2 CONC e was called upon to arbitrate in matters of business or of dispute am
2 CONC ong his associates, the opinion prevailing that his clear judgment wou
2 CONC ld enable him to see what was right, and his keen sense of Justice wou
2 CONC ld decide the question satisfactorily without fear of friend or foe. I
2 CONC n 1856 he went to Chicago being still engaged in the iron-railing busi
2 CONC ness, where he remained for many years, retiring in 1867 from active b
2 CONC usiness to the home of his son Mr. C. Yates Wemple, of West Haverstraw
2 CONC , with whom  he lived until the close of his life, which happened Febr
2 CONC uary 6, 1889, he being then in his 87th year. Mr. Wemple was one of se

2 CONT While still a mere boy, he left school and assuming the burdens of fi
2 CONC le, removed to Albany. But he was a bright intelligent lad, industriou
2 CONC s and persevering, possessed of the best qualities of his race and fir
2 CONC mly resolved to succeed in life if ability and integrity deserved succ
2 CONC ess. That he did succeed is beyond question. He learned the dry-good
2 CONC s business in Albany, and coming to New York in 1826, just after attai
2 CONC ning his majority, associated himself in business with Mr. Christy. Th
2 CONC e establishment was burned down in the great fire of 1835, which consu
2 CONC med such a large portion of the dry-goods district. Early in 1850 th
2 CONC e Manhattan Life Insurance Company was founded, mainly through his exe
2 CONC rtions and he became its first secretary. He was elected it vice-presi
2 CONC dent in 1866 and carried out the duties of the position with ability u
2 CONC ntil his death, which occurred in 1882.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Indeed he was considered, and deservedly so, one of the pioneers of l
2 CONC ife insurance in this city. It must be remembered that in those day
2 CONC s - half a century ago - insurance was not so familiar to the people a
2 CONC s it is now, nor its blessings so much appreciated. It took time and p
2 CONC erseverance to make it popular, and to Mr. Wemple is due a fair shar
2 CONC e of credit for the change in public opinion.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was for many years a member of the committee which has charge of t
2 CONC he New York Juvenile Asylum, and her a noble trait in the character o
2 CONC f Mr. Wemple may be mentioned. He took a keen interest in youth strugg
2 CONC ling against adversity and, as is well known, gave his time and mone
2 CONC y to aid deserving lads whom he found unfortunate but trying hard to r
2 CONC ight themselves. Hence, his interest in the Juvenile Asylum, of which
2 CONC , as already stated, he was on of the most active supporter.

2 CONC e days. When I was married to him, I was a widow with two sons, both n
2 CONC early eighteen years of age. The Doctor was born February 16, 1810, i
2 CONC n Johnstown, Montgomery County, New York, received his education in Al
2 CONC bany, NY; in the later years commenced the practice of dentistry in Il
2 CONC linois, from Illinois he went to Boston as an assistant partner with D
2 CONC octor Kendall. I do not know how long the partnership lasted. He cam
2 CONC e to Sandusky, Ohio, about the year 1855, opened on office and was i
2 CONC n the practice of the profession in Sandusky about 30 years, when fail
2 CONC ing health compelled him to give up his practice. He moved on a smal
2 CONC l fruit farm of fifteen acres near Sandusky, where he lived about fou
2 CONC r years and died Mary 31, 1886. He was a consistent Christian, destitu

2 CONT 
2 CONT Having learned your address from cousin Yates, I have concluded to dr
2 CONC op you a few lines. I was pleased to learn from him that you had becom
2 CONC e a member of the dental profession, with which I have been connecte
2 CONC d for more than 17 years; as you are aware, I commenced my studies wit
2 CONC h Dr. Kendall, at Utica, in 840, after leaving him I came to this plac
2 CONC e, commenced the practice of dentistry & continued until 1846, whe
2 CONC n I went to Baltimore to attend lectures in the Baltimore College of D
2 CONC ental Surgery, where I graduated in 1841. I have had a good practice f
2 CONC or some years & have realized some money - enough to render my quite c
2 CONC omfortable.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I married in the spring of 1841 to a Miss Gwym, of this county. We ha
2 CONC ve 4 children, 3 daughters and one son. One daughter died in infancy
2 CONC . Those that are living are aged  one daughter 14 years last July, on
2 CONC e 12 years old last March, only son was 9 years old last September.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Money matters have been quite stringent her for some time, as they ha
2 CONC ve been generally through the U. S., I suppose. I hope a change for th
2 CONC e better will soon take place.
2 CONT

1 NOTE He was named Andrew after his Grandfather and Myndert after Great Gran
2 CONC dfather and eldest Uncle. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT His father died when he was three and his mother married her cousin An
2 CONC drew De Graff. Since he now lived with his stepfather, also named Andr
2 CONC ew, or was raised by other members of the immediate Wemple family whic
2 CONC h contained two cousins and and uncle named Andrew, he was most likel
2 CONC y refered to by the name Myndert (or Menard as a variation) from an ea
2 CONC rly age to avoid confusion. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He may have lived with, or worked for, either the Van Fleet or Roger
2 CONC s families in his late teens in NY, and then moved west with them, o
2 CONC r with some of their sons his age sometime before 1830. It is believe
2 CONC d there were Van Fleets and/or Rogers living near his step-father Andr
2 CONC ew De Graff in NY in the 1820 or 1820 census. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT His wife Cynthia had a brother named Elijah (Elias is the German spell
2 CONC ing of Elijah). Her brother Elijah was born in Oneida, NY. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He and his wife bought 30 acres of land in Edgar Co., IL on July 19, 1
2 CONC 831 from Peter Chastain and his wife Rebecca for $46. This transactio
2 CONC n was witnessed by county clerk Jonathan Mayo. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He and his wife sold 35.67 acres of land to Sarah Rodgers in Edgar Co.
2 CONC , IL in 1837 for $50. Witnessed by Joshua Van Fleet and Elias Rodgers
2 CONC . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1840 census he lived just eight farms away from Silas Abbott, fathe
2 CONC r of Elias Wimple's wife Cynthia Abbott. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1840 census he lived just five farms away from Ezekiel Chandler
2 CONC , a relative of Lemual and William Chandler, who were involved with hi
2 CONC s son Elias Wimple. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 1840 census also shows: he was between 20-30 years old, wife Cynth
2 CONC ia was 20-30 years old, one boy under 5, two boys between 5-10, two gi
2 CONC rls between 5-10, one girl 10-15. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Both Menard and Cynthia were deceased by the 1850 census. That censu
2 CONC s shows: they had one son, Mennard age 13, living with neighbors Samue
2 CONC l and Malissa Holden, who lived on a farm directly adjacent to Menards
2 CONC , and who may very well have taken over his farm after his death; on
2 CONC e son, Josiah age 9, living with neighbors Samuel and Hester Johnson
2 CONC , who lived on a nearby farm; their other children were dispersed to o

2 CONT The story in full as quoted from the Portrait & Biographical Album o
2 CONC f Sedgwick County, Kansas, 1888 follows: 
2 CONT Captain Wemple early in life he cast his lot  with the cattlemen of Ka
2 CONC nsas, and was a hero of an article published in 1871 under the head o
2 CONC f Desperado Shot Down.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Captain Wemple, having had some cattle stolen mounted his horse, and w
2 CONC ith his repeating rifle, which he knew how to handle, struck the trai
2 CONC l of the thieves, and followed it until he reached the camp, which wa
2 CONC s situated about four miles south of Fort Dodge, which is now known a
2 CONC s Dodge City.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Riding into camp, he inquired as to the claimant of the cattle marke
2 CONC d with a certain brand, and learned one Curley Walker, well known an
2 CONC d feared gambler and desperado, claimed the stock.  Walker at the tim
2 CONC e was in a gambling house in the town, and Captain Wemple sent him wor
2 CONC d to come down and explain.  The Captain was admonished that Walker wa
2 CONC s a dangerous man, and was advised not to send for him.   He, however
2 CONC , dispatched a second messenger, telling Walker to come like a man an
2 CONC d keep his hands off his guns.
2 CONT 
2 CONT When the messenger found Curley he was playing poker, and had his gu
2 CONC ns hung on the wall behind his chair.  Upon receiving word that Captai
2 CONC n Wemple had sent him this message, the desperado swore that no man sh
2 CONC ould dare to question him, and he would meet him at once.  Mounting hi
2 CONC s horse, he rode furiously to the camp. and advancing within a few fee
2 CONC t of the Captain, drew is horse back on his haunches, and dismounted h
2 CONC im, inquired of Captain Wemple what in hell he wanted.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The latter was sitting on a wagon-tongue with his rifle across his kne
2 CONC es.  He charged Walker with having stolen his cattle, and the latter r
2 CONC eached for his gun which was stored conveniently in his belt, and fire
2 CONC d.  He missed his mark, and the Captain returned the fire, the ball ki
2 CONC lling the horse.  When the animal fell Walker got behind its body an
2 CONC d Wemple behind the front wheels of the wagon, when a regular fusillad
2 CONC e began, fifteen shots being exchanged.  Of these the desperado fire
2 CONC d seven, which took effect in the spokes of the wagon-wheel in front o
2 CONC f the Captain, and at the seventh shot fired by the later, the despera
2 CONC do fell, pierced in the heart.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Although knowing he had received his death-wound, he made one final ef
2 CONC fort to dispatch his enemy, and making his way around the body of th
2 CONC e horse was stepping across the wagon-tongue when his feet caught unde
2 CONC r it and he fell.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Captain Wemple, believing that his foe was only trying to deceive him
2 CONC , raised his gun once more and shot his adversary.  This accomplished
2 CONC , he rode up to Fort Dodge and called out of the gambling-den the me
2 CONC n who had bought the cattle, and required them to go and divide them u
2 CONC p and pay for some eight or ten head they had slaughtered, and drove t
2 CONC he rest home, and then gave himself up to the commanding officer.  H
2 CONC e was told no one had any desire to arrest or detain him for ridding t
2 CONC he country of one of the most dangerous men in the West, and according
2 CONC ly, rode unprotected to the nearest railroad station at Fort Hayes.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He had ridden his horse fast and his horse was covered with foam.  H
2 CONC e handed the reins to a groom and repaired to a 'tavern' as it was cal
2 CONC led in those days.  Within a short time the streets were filled with c
2 CONC owboys and others clamoring to get a sight at the man who had dared t
2 CONC o tackle the notorious Curley Walker and kill him.  Captain Wemple acc
2 CONC ordingly went out, and being hoisted on the shoulders of some of the m
2 CONC ob, was carried up and down the streets amid shouting and firing of gu
2 CONC ns.  He is still living and operating a large lumber-yard in Norfolk
2 CONC , Virginia.

2 CONC . The object of the expedition was to surprise some guerrillas at thei

2 CONC arned that a force of our men, from another direction, had been ther
2 CONC e during the day, so we returned to Porter's Mills and bivouacked unti
2 CONC l morning. It was one o'clock when (we) got to the mills.

2 CONC ' rations, after Richardson again. The latter is slippery as an eel.
2 CONT 
2 CONT (We) Camped near the plantation of Mr. Sherrid. Early on the morning o

2 CONC s command had been crossing the Big Hatchie in squads for two or thre
2 CONC e days and that they said that I was after them with twenty-five piece
2 CONC s of artillery and three or four thousand men. With the remainder of m
2 CONC y command, I proceeded east to Bellmont, Thence returned to Quinn's Mi

2 CONC l in East Cleveland, Ohio; the following spring went to Kentucky and t
2 CONC aught a class of young men in the town of Warsaw on the Ohio river. Fr
2 CONC om Warsaw I went to Carrol County, Kentucky and taught again. All th
2 CONC e time I was teaching, I was studying medicine. I think for a period o
2 CONC f three years I never went to bed before one o'clock, except Sunday ni
2 CONC ghts. I attended lectures in the Ohio Medical College at Cincinnati, p
2 CONC racticed in Owen County, Kentucky, until November 1856, when I locate
2 CONC d in Mount Pulaski, Illinois, had a large business and did a great dea
2 CONC l of hard work for nothing.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In August 1861 I was commissioned a captain of company H. 4th regimen
2 CONC t, Illinois cavalry, to take rank August 20, or about that date. The r
2 CONC egiment was organized at Ottawa, Illinois, when Camp Hunter was establ
2 CONC ished. I was offered the place of Regimental Surgeon, for which I di
2 CONC d not care, as I did not think I would be pleased to be confined to th
2 CONC e rear. The regiment saw the first of the enemy at Fort Henry, next a
2 CONC t Donalson, and next at Pittsburg Landing on the 6th and 7th of Apri
2 CONC l 1862. A hundred other affairs do not count when the survivors rememb
2 CONC er Donelson and Shiloh (or as the records have it Pittsburg Landing)
2 CONC . On account of the ill health of Major Wallace I was placed in comman
2 CONC d of the 2nd Battalion, of the 4th regiment, consisting of four compan
2 CONC ies. I mounted about 7 o'clock A.M., of the 6th and I did not thin
2 CONC k I was out of the saddle more than twenty minutes at any time until n
2 CONC early noon of Tuesday. On Sunday and Monday nights I happened to hav
2 CONC e the luck to be selected with part of my command to patrol the spac
2 CONC e between the two armies. On Monday night I got my orders from Genera
2 CONC l Sherman with an injunction to report in person at sunrise. At that t
2 CONC ime in company with Lieutenant Fisk and twelve men I was riding leisur
2 CONC ely down General Breckenridge's lines, going slow in order to excite n
2 CONC o suspicion that we cared a continental for them. We got outside the e
2 CONC nemies pickets and when I reported to Sherman and flattered myself tha
2 CONC t I had earned the place of a general of division, I was told in a tor
2 CONC rent of profanity that I had no orders to go inside the rebel lines
2 CONC . A few days afterwards, I had the pleasure of telling him that if h
2 CONC e would please notice he would be quite likely to hear of western volu
2 CONC nteers going into a number of places without orders. I am now very gla
2 CONC d that I am able to say that General Sherman and I were very good frie
2 CONC nds after our little tiff of April 8, 1862, and I got a number of nic
2 CONC e things from him and by him. In August 1862 I was startled by an anno
2 CONC uncement from Head Quarters that I was to take (the) rank of Major an
2 CONC d when my commission arrived the War Governor of Illinois, Dick Yates
2 CONC , had endorsed it 'For meritorious conduct of Pittsburg Landing, Apri
2 CONC l 6th & 7th 1862'. I served with the regiment until November 3, 1864
2 CONC , when I returned to Mount Pulaski, and resumed the practice of medici
2 CONC ne, which I kept up until 1871. After being idle about ten years, I we
2 CONC nt to farming and have kept at it, moving to this state in March 189
2 CONC 3 for the purpose of stock farming.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Yates in my son's name came from an office mate in Kentucky, W. F
2 CONC . Yates, whom I esteemed very highly.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The 'B' in my father's name came from the family name of his mother
2 CONC , the Beckers.

2 CONT 
2 CONT THE BATH PATENT MEDICINE BUILDING (Building #48)
2 CONT 
2 CONT . . . Ed Wemp bought it (the land on which the building was built) i
2 CONC n 1862 and we think that Wemp built the structure which exists today a
2 CONC round 1862. Wemp used the building as a hotel. The fire insurance ma
2 CONC p of 1892 shows a two story structure whit a full-length verandah on t
2 CONC he front. The building, on the 1892 map, is marked as the Wemp Hous
2 CONC e Hotel.  Also on the rear or southern side are shown a series of ext
2 CONC ensions: a one story L-shaped extension, and running further south ano
2 CONC ther one story extension, a drive shed, a stable, and another one stor
2 CONC y structure. The drive shed and the other extensions towards the sout
2 CONC h do not exist today.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT THE VILLAGE SHOPPE (Building #49)
2 CONT 
2 CONT This structure was built around 1894 when Wemp bought the piece of lan
2 CONC d on which the building is situated from the Ham estate. The Walling M
2 CONC ap of 1859 shows a structure on the site with P. Hartmore's name appea
2 CONC ring beside it, but the fire insurance map of 1892 shows the lot witho
2 CONC ut any structure. This means that whatever structure existed in 1859 w
2 CONC as gone by 1892.  . . .
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Village Shoppe is a two story, flat-roofed rectangular structure
2 CONC , with a single-story, flat-roofed addition to the rear. A front addit
2 CONC ion projects slightly on the ground floor with a shed roof extending o
2 CONC ver the projection. Originally clapboard over wooden frame, the fron
2 CONC t is now faced with vertical siding on the second floor, with angel st
2 CONC one on the projection. The second floor at the rear has been covered w
2 CONC ith sheet metal. A single brick chimney rises above the centre of th
2 CONC e building. The building lacks a basement and rests on a rubble ston
2 CONC e foundation.  . . .

2 CONC f his own accord. WBW
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was the developer of Wimple's Yellow Dent and Wimple's Hybrid see
2 CONC d corn. DRW
2 CONT 
2 CONT The following is from an unpublished manuscript sent to the compiler o
2 CONC n September 28, 2000 by Michael Lee Wemple of Bay City, MI. and writte
2 CONC n by William Barent Wemple, compiler of the first part if this genealo
2 CONC gy from 1885-1913.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was born in Fulton County, New York State, October 8, 1851. In 1852
2 CONC , his mother removed to and settled in Rock County, Wisconsin, where s
2 CONC he remained a short time and then located in Butler County, Iowa. Youn
2 CONC g Wemple grew to maturity in the Hawkeye state on a farm attending dis
2 CONC trict school during the winter months of his early boyhood. When he wa
2 CONC s about fourteen years of age, he was compelled to look out for himsel
2 CONC f and for the next five years he worked on a farm steadily for his boa
2 CONC rd and $14 to $20 per month. In 1871 he went to Clay County, Dakota Te
2 CONC rritory, and settled on a claim in Township 82, range 51. He continue
2 CONC d to reside there until he was married, which occurred July 9, 1877, a
2 CONC nd the year after removed with his wife to the farm whereon he now ha
2 CONC s his home. It was all wild land then, but under his careful managemen
2 CONC t he has brought it to a high state of cultivation, fenced it neatly
2 CONC , and had surrounded the residence with a nice grove of trees, all o
2 CONC f his own planting. The grove consists of fifteen acres and his orchar
2 CONC d contains 200 trees. All the necessary out-buildings he has also cons
2 CONC tructed and arranged them conveniently for the prosecution of his far
2 CONC m work. he does a general farming and stock raising business and has b
2 CONC een making a speciality of breeding Poland China hogs at which he ha
2 CONC s succeeded fairly well. His is truly a model farm in all that the wor
2 CONC d implies and he may well be justly proud of it, as it is all his ow
2 CONC n making and the result of hard labor. He is essentially a self-made m
2 CONC an having begun life with nothing, and the beautiful farm of which h
2 CONC e is the fortunate owner reflects credit on his thrift and enterprise
2 CONC . The estimable lady who presides over the economics of the househol
2 CONC d bore the maiden name of Miss Adelia P. La Suer and was born in Boliv
2 CONC er, New York State, March 8, 1855. They were married July 9, 1877. Mrs
2 CONC . Wemple is a member of the Rebecca Lodge and is treasure of that orga
2 CONC nization. Our subject politically has been a Republican, but is no
2 CONC w a Populist. On the latter ticket, in 1892, he was a candidate for co
2 CONC unty treasurer and in 1896 was nominated on the free silver ticket fo
2 CONC r the legislature from his district. He has always taken an active int
2 CONC erest in township and county politics and has been instrumental in dev
2 CONC eloping the Canton Leader as a reform paper and bringing it to its pre
2 CONC sent condition and reputation. Besides the various school positions h
2 CONC e has held, he has also served his fellow-townsmen as clerk and road o
2 CONC verseer of the township and as a member of the town board, serving a
2 CONC s chairman of the latter body. Some years ago he commenced to write hi
2 CONC s name WIMPLE and on account of property interests, he cannot now go b
2 CONC ack to the correct spelling. His post office is Beresford, South Dakot
2 CONC a.

2 CONT 
2 CONT He was born in Fultonville, Montgomery County, NY, October 23, 1843; m
2 CONC arried Alelaide F. Groot, September 10, 1969; his wife was a daughte
2 CONC r of Simon C. Groot, of Schenectady, and was born in that place Marc
2 CONC h 19, 1844; she died in Fultonville, NY, December 24, 1895.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At the common schools of his native village, he was taught the rudimen
2 CONC ts of his earliest education, and was afterwards a student of the Ashl
2 CONC and Academy in Greene County, and of the Schenectady Union School. whe
2 CONC re he prepared for a collegiate course. He learned readily and wa
2 CONC s a  diligent student; hence he was ready for college at an earlier ag
2 CONC e than most other boys. Entering Union College, then in a flourishin
2 CONC g condition, he was graduated from there in 1861 at the age of twenty-
2 CONC three. He was not long in deciding upon the choice of a profession, fo
2 CONC r during his college courses, the study of political and legal scienc
2 CONC e seems to have possessed special charms for him. On leaving college
2 CONC , he entered on the study of law in the office of W. L. Van Denbergh
2 CONC . Mr. Wemple's father was at that time largely engaged in the foundr
2 CONC y business at Fultonville with his two sons Nicholas and William H. an
2 CONC d  shortly after the father's death in 1869, Edward was admitted int
2 CONC o partnership with his two brothers. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He soon acquired a thorough practical knowledge of the foundry busines
2 CONC s, which has been continued with increasing success down to the presen
2 CONC t. At the same time he was diligently employing his leisure moments i
2 CONC n the study of political and state affairs in which he was to become s
2 CONC o prominent, exhibiting those qualifications which belong to the righ
2 CONC t man in the right place, Mr. Wemple entered political life as an arde
2 CONC nt young advocate of the principles of the Democratic party, to whic
2 CONC h he has always adhered with an uncompromising spirit. He had scarcel
2 CONC y reached the age of thirty before he was chosen president of the vill
2 CONC age of Fultonville, in 1873, and from that period we may date the begi
2 CONC nning of his useful, active and honorable career as a popular politica
2 CONC l leader. He next filled the office of supervisor of his native town
2 CONC , in the prosperity of which he has always taken a lively interest. Th
2 CONC is position he held during the years 1874, 1875 1876. In 1876 he was e
2 CONC lected as a Democrat to the legislature over Davis W. Shuler (Republic
2 CONC an) and N. T. De Graff (Prohibition), and served acceptably on the com
2 CONC mittees of railroads, villages and the library. He was re-elected to t
2 CONC he legislature in 1877. Increasing in popularity, his party nominate
2 CONC d him four years after the close of his legislative term, in 1882, fo
2 CONC r a member of congress from the Twentieth district, and though the dis
2 CONC trict is a strong Republican one (from 1500 to 2000 majority), he wa
2 CONC s triumphantly elected over Howard George West, of Ballston, the Repub
2 CONC lican candidate. His congressional record formed a bright page in hi
2 CONC s history, and demonstrated his capacity as a practical man, whose hig
2 CONC hest aim in not to serve party alone, but the country at large. He ser
2 CONC ved with credit on the committee on public buildings and grounds, an
2 CONC d also on that of railroads on canals. He advocated the measures for s
2 CONC ecuring better mail facilities, and took a leading part in the welfar
2 CONC e of the veterans of the Union army, pushing forward a prompt settleme
2 CONC nt of their just claim. He also presented the measure of giving the pr
2 CONC esident the power to veto separate objectionable items on appropriatio
2 CONC n bills without killing the whole bill. The justice of this congressio
2 CONC nal act must be apparent to all classes, irrespective of party. But on
2 CONC e of the grandest measures for which Mr. Wemple contended till it wa
2 CONC s successfully accomplished, was the securing of an appropriation to e
2 CONC rect a noble monument at Schuylerville, to commemorate the glorious an
2 CONC d decisive victory over the British on the ever memorable field of Sar
2 CONC atoga. All patriotic citizens will ever join in honoring him for his w
2 CONC orks and labors of love in a cause so worthy and just. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple has always been a strong friend of the Erie Canal, and whil
2 CONC e in Congress he earnestly contended that the federal government shoul
2 CONC d do its duty and provide for the maintenance and repair of the free a
2 CONC rtificial waterways of this State, which form an indispensable link i
2 CONC n the chain of navigation from the great West to tidewater, just as i
2 CONC t provides for the maintenance and repair of far less important free n
2 CONC ational waterways in all sections of the country; and that without aff
2 CONC ecting in the least the jurisdiction of the State. 
2 CONT Retiring from his Congressional life with well earned laurels, Mr. Wem
2 CONC ple sought the quietude of his beautiful home at Fultonville, among th
2 CONC e friends of his youthful days, and in the enjoyment of domestic scene
2 CONC s. But he was not long to remain in the walks of private life. In 188
2 CONC 5 he was elected to the state senate from the 18th district, compose
2 CONC d of the counties of Saratoga, Fulton, Hamilton, Schenectady and Montg
2 CONC omery; this district had a normal Republican majority of 2000. He oppo
2 CONC nent was the Honorable Austin A. Yates (Republican), and the contest w
2 CONC as carried on with great determination on both sides. Mr. Wemple won b
2 CONC y a majority of twenty, and it was a striking instance of his remarkab
2 CONC le popularity among his friends and neighbors, that he should thus suc
2 CONC ceed in so strong a Republican district, and with so powerful an adver
2 CONC sary as Judge Yates. As a State senator, Mr. Wemple added additional l
2 CONC ustre to his already well-established reputation as an able, upright a
2 CONC nd patriotic citizen. He took an active part in the leading measures w
2 CONC hich came before that body, and while he always endeavored to sustai
2 CONC n the honor of his party, he at the same time tried to advance the int
2 CONC erests of the commonwealth.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In the fall of 1887, at the conclusion of his senatorial term, Mr. Wem
2 CONC ple was nominated for state comptroller, the most important office und
2 CONC er the state government except that of governor, and was elected b
2 CONC y a majority of 15374, the highest vote received by a candidate on th
2 CONC e ticket, and entered upon his duties January 1, 1888. The term of off
2 CONC ice is two years and he was re-elected for a second term in 1889. Th
2 CONC e affairs of this high and responsible office were conducted by Mr. We
2 CONC mple in a manner that reflected the highest credit. Since his retireme
2 CONC nt from office in 1892, after four years of service, Mr. Wemple has pa
2 CONC ssed the greater part of the time at his beautiful and historic home o
2 CONC n the banks of the Mohawk at Fultonville.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1892 he was chosen as a member of the Electoral College from New Yo
2 CONC rk State which elected Grover Cleveland president of the United States
2 CONC . The secret of Mr. Wemple's success as a politician lies in his broa
2 CONC d intelligence, his exceptional executive ability and his strict integ
2 CONC rity. He is regarded by his party as one who is always true to his pol
2 CONC itical principles, strong in his convictions of duty, and an able expo
2 CONC nent of the old Jeffersonian doctrines. As a man he in plain in manner
2 CONC s, affable and easily approachable and popular wherever known for hi

2 CONC . It will require about $75,000 to finish this monument as desired.
2 CONT 
2 CONT This bill appropriates $40,000. If the General Government will give th

2 CONT WHOSE LITTLE BABY BOY? 
2 CONT 
2 CONT A story was told yesterday that an infant child had been left at the h
2 CONC ouse of Peter Wemple, a laborer, residing at No. 3 Wiard place, on Sat
2 CONC urday evening last. It was said that while the family, who live in th
2 CONC e south half of a small double house, were in the front part of the ho
2 CONC use, some one entered the back door, silently deposited a market baske
2 CONC t containing the infant on the floor, and departed. Rumor had it tha
2 CONC t the Wemples knew whom the child belonged to and were to receive comp
2 CONC ensation for keeping it. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT This morning a reporter visited Mr. and Mrs. Wemple, and upon being us
2 CONC hered into the neat front room the first thing that attracted his atte
2 CONC ntion was a large clothes-basket on the floor near the stove, containi
2 CONC ng a suspicious looking bundle. The story which had gained currency wa
2 CONC s repeated to Mr. Wemple and he was asked if it was true. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  The truth of the matter is just this, he replied.  I was visited S
2 CONC aturday afternoon by a responsible person residing in Batavia who sai
2 CONC d that he wanted me to take a boy baby and care for it, and he promise
2 CONC d me good pay for doing so. My wife had no objection to doing it, an
2 CONC d I was willing. Well, Saturday night a person whom I am acquainted wi
2 CONC th, but my wife doesn't know, came to our back door with the child, an
2 CONC d left it, and we are now taking care of it. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT When was the child born? 
2 CONT 
2 CONT On Saturday. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Do you know who its parents are or from whose house it came? 
2 CONT 
2 CONT No, that I know nothing about, and don't want to. I am to be well pai
2 CONC d for caring for it and it is going to get the best of care. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Is the report that it was brought here in a market basket true? 
2 CONT 
2 CONT I am not going to say anything about that, either. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT We have made no secret about this matter, Mr. Wemple continued, an
2 CONC d don't intend to. Why, there were eight ladies here yesterday to se
2 CONC e the child, and he named several well-known ladies, who, he said wer
2 CONC e among the number. Of course, he added, there are plenty of peopl
2 CONC e who will tell all sorts of stories about this business. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. Wemple was in the room while this conversation was being carrie
2 CONC d on and she expressed the opinion that it was nobody's business, any
2 CONC way, and objected to anything being published in regard to it. When t
2 CONC he reporter expressed a desire to view the mysterious visitor she quic
2 CONC kly acquiesced, however, and laid aside a portion of a quilt that cove
2 CONC red the clothes-basket. A chubby-faced, bald-headed little bit of huma
2 CONC nity was exposed to view. There he lay contentedly endeavoring to pus
2 CONC h his little eyes out of his head with his fist, and at the same tim
2 CONC e engaging himself with the business end of a rubber tube which protru
2 CONC ded from a nursing bottle.  The little fellow was wrapped in a pink cl
2 CONC oth of some soft material. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Why, he's just as good as can be, remarked Mr. Wemple. He hasn't ma
2 CONC de any trouble at all yet, and only makes a noise when he gets hungry.
2 CONC  
2 CONT 
2 CONT No certificate of birth in this case has yet been filed with the Cler
2 CONC k of the Board of Health. The regulations of the Board of Health state
2 CONC , however, and they are based on a State law, that it shall be the du
2 CONC ty of the groom in every marriage and of the parents or custodian of e
2 CONC very child born, to make sure that the prescribed report of such marri
2 CONC age or birth is presented to the Board of Health or its registering of
2 CONC ficer within thirty days, under a penalty for failure to do so

2 CONT Another good soldier and citizen has gone to his long reward.  It wa

2 CONC s dead. For a long time he has been in very feeble health and his deat
2 CONC h had been expected for some time.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Edward H. Wemple died at his residence in Wempletown, Burritt, Saturda
2 CONC y morning, after a long and lingering illness of consumption of the bo
2 CONC wels.  Deceased was well known in this city, and for a while, until de
2 CONC ath compelled him to resign, was a deputy sheriff.  He was a faithful
2 CONC , quiet, unassuming man, and had many friends throughout this city an
2 CONC d county.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Deceased was born in Fonda, Montgomery County, New York, January 27, 1
2 CONC 838.  His parents removed to this county at an early day and settled i
2 CONC n Burritt, in that part subsequently named Wempletown.  His father ere
2 CONC cted the first house and blacksmith shop in that vicinity, and was par
2 CONC ticularly instrumental in erecting the M.E. church in that place, of w
2 CONC hich Rev. O.E. Burch in now pastor.  December 1, 1859, Edward H. was u
2 CONC nited in marriage to Janet Beatson, who survives him with two children
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT August 8, 1862, Mr. Wemple enlisted in Company D, Captain Douglas, o
2 CONC f the 74th Illinois regiment, of which Jason Marsh was colonel.  He se

2 CONC le of Bay City, MI.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was born September 30, 1830; was a bright and energetic boy, gifte
2 CONC d with more than the ordinary degree of intelligence and at an early a
2 CONC ge commenced the foundation of his education by teaching himself to re
2 CONC ad. His was naturally a studious and receptive mind, a great lover o
2 CONC f literature, reading promiscuously but possessing the facility to cho
2 CONC ose the best material. The facilities for acquiring knowledge at tha
2 CONC t time were of the kind usually afforded at the district school and co
2 CONC nsisted of such studies as were then thought requisite for a good comm
2 CONC on school education; the lessons learned and his general reading, stim
2 CONC ulated the love of study which grew and, fostered by careful nurture a
2 CONC nd cultivation, formed the basis of an intelligent and successful manh
2 CONC ood. He was an honorable and upright boy and his character grew and st
2 CONC rengthened with the advance of years. After his school days, a new fie
2 CONC ld of instruction opened to his enquiring mind in assisting his father
2 CONC , who was at the time engaged in the manufacturing of implements of in
2 CONC dustrial and household arts and at times also assisted in adjusting an
2 CONC d setting up iron railings. He father's inventive genius culminated i
2 CONC n projecting and manufacturing the platform scale, and so, by the forc
2 CONC e of circumstance, he found himself placed in the field in which he wa
2 CONC s best qualified to succeed, for while he became a valuable assistan
2 CONC t to his father, through the latter's advice and guidance, gained th
2 CONC e opportunity for a thorough knowledge of mechanical art. About the ti
2 CONC me of attaining his majority, he met and married Miss Seeber, daughte
2 CONC r of Abraham Seeber, a noted and prosperous farmer in the Mohawk Valle
2 CONC y, and soon after, with a view to bettering his condition, went to Ne
2 CONC w York City where for a short time he was engaged with the journeyme
2 CONC n scale-makers at a liberal salary. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The sewing machine was then in its infancy and the Singer which has at
2 CONC tained such vast magnitude, was at that time only in its incipiency, c
2 CONC ompetitors were already in the market and the new project was looked u
2 CONC pon with distrust., when to meet the emergency, the offer of more libe
2 CONC ral salary and guarantee of permanent employment to skilled mechanic
2 CONC s induced a score or more of energetic, young men to engage in the ent
2 CONC erprise. Mr. Wemple being one of the few to follow his convictions, fo
2 CONC r with confidence in his abilities to perform whatever he undertook, h
2 CONC e entered the new field prepared to meet and overcome all obstacles. H
2 CONC is quickness to perceive and adopt any new idea and his willingness t
2 CONC o cooperate attracted the attention of the management and proved the m
2 CONC eans of early advancement from assistant to foremen, then contractor a
2 CONC nd finally, when the business was organized into a stock company, mad
2 CONC e a member, continuing with the firm for a period of over fifteen year
2 CONC s, or until the time of his death, in the fortieth year of his age, ju
2 CONC st when he began to realize the fruit of years of unremitting industr
2 CONC y and perseverance, and life, in view of the success awaiting his futu
2 CONC re, seemed immeasurably dear. In justice to his memory it must be adde
2 CONC d that a character so nobly illustrated by a well ordered and successf
2 CONC ul life when called upon to surrender was prepared to meet the issue a
2 CONC nd calmly and resigned awaited its close. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Married Sarah C. Seeber 11849; she was born March 6, 1823; died July 2
2 CONC 8, 1898; he died December 3, 1869.

2 CONC emple (who was secretary of the company when his son entered it) and b
2 CONC ecame a student of the life insurance business realizing as he did th
2 CONC e inexhaustible possibilities of that field, and having become imbue
2 CONC d with the enthusiasm of his father, he determined to make it his lif
2 CONC e work, and today as he looks back from the prominent position he no
2 CONC w occupies in that world, he certainly has no cause to regret his choi
2 CONC ce, and the insurance world has much to be thankful for in so worth
2 CONC y a represent and so staunch a standard bearer.
2 CONT 
2 CONT By diligent attention to business an indomitable persevere he forced h
2 CONC is way to the very front, step by step, inch by inch. In November 186
2 CONC 6 his fidelity was rewarded by being elected Assistant Secretary; in S
2 CONC eptember 1882 he was made Secretary, and in June 1890 received the app
2 CONC ointment of Second Vice-President. He is a great worker and in that an
2 CONC d his bright intellect lay the secret of his success.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Personally, Mr. Wemple is a tall, fine looking man of young middle age
2 CONC , keen bright eyes, a pleasant smile and well cut features; his mout
2 CONC h indicates great strength of will; he is polished in his manners, sua
2 CONC ve in conversation, and commands the respect and esteem of thousands o
2 CONC f friends in insurance circles.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was always fond of athletics and early in the sixties he and his el
2 CONC der brother, William Russ Wemple, were instrumental in organizing th
2 CONC e Neptune Boat Club of Richmond County, of which club he was the honor
2 CONC ed president for several years, and was also one of its racing crew fo
2 CONC r three years; this club was afterwards merged into the Staten Islan
2 CONC d Athletic Club.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On December 20, 1865, he was married to Cornilia Jenkins Barker, the g
2 CONC randdaughter of Thomas Jenkins, a prominent resident of Columbia Count
2 CONC y, NY. The result of this marriage was six children - three boys and t
2 CONC hree girls; the first child, a girl, died when six months old; the sec
2 CONC ond child, a son, died when sixteen and a half years old. The others a
2 CONC re now living, and the oldest boy is named after his father; he is als
2 CONC o in the employ of the Manhattan Life Insurance Company, and gives pro
2 CONC mise of following very closely in the footsteps of both his sire and g
2 CONC randsire.

2 CONC vers that it should be MMM as signifying that he represented the bes
2 CONC t of Methodism, Masonry and Manhood.  This commendation is justified b
2 CONC y the character of the man.  He is a Methodist through and through b

2 CONC .  He is a Mason who lives a life consistent with the high tenets of t
2 CONC he greatest and most noble secret order in the world and he is a man s
2 CONC ince to do unto others as they should do to you is a part o this lif
2 CONC e and daily living.  And In He Signe Vinces means to him and is to h

2 CONT 
2 CONT John Jay Wemple of Cleveland, Ohio, was born at his father's homestea
2 CONC d on the shore of Chautauqua Lake near the village of Ashville, Chatau
2 CONC qua County, New York, August 23, 1849.  His father, Hiram S. Wemple, w
2 CONC as the son of Henry Wemple, the son of one of three brothers who cam
2 CONC e from Holland to America in 1770.  The paternal grandfather was one o
2 CONC f the principals of civil engineers who laid out the famous Holland pu
2 CONC rchase in western New York.  Hiram S. Wemple was reared to all the har
2 CONC dships consequent to the life of a pioneer, and at the age of 27 year
2 CONC s married Miss Sophia Kidder, daughter of Captain Nathan Kidder, who w
2 CONC as a grandson of one the three of one of the three brothers who came f
2 CONC rom Holland at an early day.
2 CONT 
2 CONT By lineage John Jay Wemple is connected with some the best families o
2 CONC f Holland and England, and through his grandmother, the wife of Henr
2 CONC y Wemple, with the best blood of France.  He was raised to hard labo
2 CONC r on one of the large dairy farms of Chautauqua County.  He received c
2 CONC ommon school education, and at the age of 16,  he attended for one ter
2 CONC m of three months, the old Jamestown Academy; after several years of a
2 CONC dvanced work he completed his collegiate education with two six mont
2 CONC h terms at Jamestown Union School and College Institute from which h
2 CONC e graduated with credit.  He became a school teacher, instructing in c
2 CONC ommon schools in Warren County, Pennsylvania.  He anticipated the advi
2 CONC ce of Horace Greeley and went west to grow up with the country.  He re
2 CONC ached Centralia, Kansas, March 25, 1869, which was the year followin
2 CONC g the great drought and grass-hopper raid.  He taught two years in th
2 CONC e schools of Nemaha County.
2 CONT 
2 CONT With him hard work and studious habits went together.  He recognized t
2 CONC he value of learning.  He learned practical things.  He was ambitiou
2 CONC s to progress. He wanted to succeed.  He learned telegraphing and in 1
2 CONC 871 entered railroad service.  He was the agent of the Wetmone statio
2 CONC n of the central branch of the Union Pacific Railroad.  Here his intel
2 CONC ligent habits of labor were appreciated and he gradually advanced in r
2 CONC ailroad work, first to the agency of Sebetha, Kansas, on the Saint Jos
2 CONC eph and Denver City railroads and next to the position of terminal age
2 CONC nt of the same company at Hastings, Nebraska.  He remained until the s
2 CONC pring of 1879 when he entered the lumber business at Hastings, which h
2 CONC e followed for four years.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1873 his talents were recognized by the Paine Lumber Company of Osh
2 CONC kosh, Wisconsin and he engaged as the general managing agent of the ex
2 CONC tensive western business of the big company.  Later this corporation c
2 CONC oncluded to centralize its interests and dispose of its western busine
2 CONC ss.  Mr. Wemple then became secretary and treasurer of a quite an exte
2 CONC nsive publishing business.  During his residence in Hastings local pol
2 CONC itical and commercial honors were bestowed upon him to a considerabl
2 CONC e extent.  He was city councilman and director of two or three banks
2 CONC ; also director in the Nebraska Loan and Trust Company and of the loca
2 CONC l street railroad company.  During his residence in Kansas in 1872 h
2 CONC e returned to Chautauqua County, New York and was married to the sweet
2 CONC heart of his youth, Miss Rosetta Mitchell.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In the summer of 1889 the Paine Lumber Company again sought his servic
2 CONC es and induced him to come to Cleveland, Ohio.  He became the secretar
2 CONC y, treasurer and general manager of the Ohio Sash and door Company o
2 CONC f this city.  Under Mr. Wemple's able and liberal management this comp
2 CONC any has become of the best known in the country.  It has progressed an
2 CONC d prospered.  The officers of the Ohio Sash and Door Company are J.W
2 CONC . Henebaugh, president,  J.J. Wemple, secretary and treasurer, Georg
2 CONC e M. Paine, vice president.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple was initiated into Masonry on June 12, 1875.  He arose to t
2 CONC he Oawtse Masonic Orders.  Mr. Wemple was brought up in a religious at
2 CONC mosphere, and is a member of the official board of the Methodist Episc
2 CONC opal Church on Euclid Avenue and active in furthering the cause of org
2 CONC anized Christianity.  Personally Mr. Wemple is aggressive, broad-minde
2 CONC d, and public spirited and the personification of geniality itself.  H
2 CONC is popularity is county-wide and it is with unusual pleasure that th
2 CONC e American Lumberman presents this meager eulogy.

2 CONT The John Searles Story: Discovering the Desert
2 CONT Author unstated 
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Son of George and Helen Wemple Searles was born at Tribes Hill, Montgo
2 CONC mery county, New York. He inherited fortitude and tenacity from ancest
2 CONC ors who won renown with the American army in the Revolutionary war. H
2 CONC e came to California to find gold, but found riches and built a legac
2 CONC y of benefits and blessings through the discovery of the glittering bo
2 CONC rax crystals in the lake bed which now bears his name. This is his sto
2 CONC ry:
2 CONT 
2 CONT He came by way of wagon train in 1849 to join his brother Dennis in th
2 CONC e California gold fields. An intrepid pioneer, courage and fearlessnes
2 CONC s were his only possessions. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mining and farming in Indian creek, Shasta county, California, for sev
2 CONC eral years the two brothers eventually disposed of their holdings an
2 CONC d moved on searching for better prospects. In 1862 the brothers bega
2 CONC n working mining claims in the Slate range, just east of the present S
2 CONC earles lake. The vast dry lake was thought to be carbonate of soda.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Confiding in no one, Searles gathered samples of the crystals and too
2 CONC k them to San Francisco to be assayed. Reports were uneven, first Sear
2 CONC les heard the samples contained borax, then other analysis reported th
2 CONC ere was not a single trace. Disappointed, he returned to the desert an
2 CONC d continued to develop his homestead and work his claims.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He built a home, developed a well and prospected the mountains. Searle
2 CONC s would bring in supplies and feed for his stock from Tehachapi in th
2 CONC e mountains over 100 miles away.
2 CONT 
2 CONT While on a deer-hunting expedition in Kern county, Searles had a gruel
2 CONC ling battle with a grizzly bear. The fight left Searles with one sid
2 CONC e of his face and a shoulder badly mangled. Companions on the hunt man
2 CONC aged to get him to Los Angeles where surgeons miraculously saved his l
2 CONC ife. Grim reminders of the encounter he kept with him were 21 pieces o
2 CONC f broken teeth and bones of the bear, and a Spencer rifle with dents f
2 CONC rom the grizzly's teeth all over it.
2 CONT 
2 CONT History records 1873 as a year of note for Searles, first with his mar
2 CONC riage to Mary Covington in Los Angeles, California on January 1st, the
2 CONC n later in the year when a man drifted into the Searles mining camp. H
2 CONC e had samples from a new borax discovery in Nevada and showed them t
2 CONC o Searles. Searles immediately recognized them as the same type crysta
2 CONC ls he had taken to San Fransisco years before.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In Los Angeles he struck up a partnership with Charles Grassard, Ebe
2 CONC n M. Skillings and his brother Dennis. Searles packed some supplies an
2 CONC d left, but in a different direction, camping and prospecting along th
2 CONC e way, still being trailed. His partners gathered simple mining equipm
2 CONC ent for starting operations and left directly to the claims. Once he w
2 CONC as certain he eluded his followers Searles moved on to join his partne
2 CONC rs and working the claims began.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Word reached the outside world about the discovery of borax in Searle
2 CONC s lake. Hordes of men came to stake out claims. The discovery of bora
2 CONC x is one thing, and certainly can in its own right can make a man famo
2 CONC us, collecting the mineral and transporting it is another matter and i
2 CONC f done can make a man rich. Claim jumping and murder knew no law. Sear
2 CONC les and his group continued working and perservered while most of th
2 CONC e claimants were starved out and abandoned their claims.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The work was done in the extremes of the desert. With crude equipmen
2 CONC t Searles' little band collected borax in cowhide baskets and carrie
2 CONC d it to large boiling pots where it was boiled for 36 hours. The solut
2 CONC ion was cooled and run into vats. It cooled and the crystals formed o
2 CONC n the sides where scraped off after drying and loaded into 70 pound ba
2 CONC gs. To haul the borax to San Pedro for shipping Searles had hired Os
2 CONC o Viejo to build and drive 20 mule team wagons, the first ever of suc
2 CONC h to be put into operation.

2 CONC t formed part of a Pleistocene drainage network linking a number of no
2 CONC w-arid basins. Certain minerals constituting the playa's evaporites ar
2 CONC e relatively uncommon elsewhere; trona and hanksite are examples. Th
2 CONC e dry lake was named for the brothers John and Dennis Searles, who dis
2 CONC covered borax there in 1863 and began working the rich deposits of min
2 CONC erals in 1873. There is now a historic landmark, recalling the discove

2 CONT BONHAM DAILY FAVORITE
2 CONT Saturday, January 19, 1929
2 CONT (Headlines read as follows:) Daddy Wemple is quite ill out at Fort
2 CONC h Worth, Texas.  Information is, as this is written, cannot last muc
2 CONC h longer.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Information reached this city Friday night that A.J. Wemple, whom ever
2 CONC y railroad man, and many of the other citizens of this city called 'Da
2 CONC ddy,' was in serious condition in Fort Worth, where he has been livin
2 CONC g since retirement from active work on the Texas & Pacific railroad.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. George Myers, his daughter (Frances), left this morning to be wit
2 CONC h her father and the end is expected almost any time, unless a wonderf
2 CONC ul change for the better sets in immediately.
2 CONT 
2 CONT For years A.J. Wemple was an engineer here in the yards, running a swi
2 CONC tch engine.  He had done road work, both as a fireman and engineer yea
2 CONC rs ago, before coming to Texas.  Back in New York he had run from Syra
2 CONC cuse to Schenectady, if memory is right.  Afterwards he went to Illino
2 CONC is to work.  And he was running a switch engine in Chicago when the gr
2 CONC eat fire broke out.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Before that time, however, he was doing road work in Illinois, and whe
2 CONC n the body of Abraham Lincoln was brought from Washington City, back t
2 CONC o Springfield, there the great commoner had lived and practised law, A
2 CONC .J. Wemple was at the throttle of the engine which pulled the funera
2 CONC l train into Springfield with the remains.  He often spoke of that occ

2 CONT Excerpts from an article in an unnamed newspaper
2 CONT 
2 CONT ENGINEER WHO PILOTED FUNERAL TRAIN OF LINCOLN TELLS OF RAILROAD CAREER
2 CONT 
2 CONT Addressed to The Oldest Engineer in Captivity, Fort Worth, Texas,
2 CONC  a letter received at the Post Office here recently was delivered wit
2 CONC hout hesitation to the person for whom it was intended, A.J. Wemple, 1
2 CONC 17 Galveston Avenue.  It is probable that no one will dispute the titl
2 CONC e with him when the statement is made that he had been a full-fledge
2 CONC d engineer for 11 years when he piloted Lincoln's funeral train over h
2 CONC is run. It was February, 1851, that Alonzo John Wemple, then a lad o
2 CONC f 17, got his first taste of railroading, hauling iron and ties, getti
2 CONC ng a berth as fireman in September of the same year.  The road, whic
2 CONC h connected Schenectady and  Troy, is now a part of the great New Yor
2 CONC k Central System, along with half a dozen other short lines, the conso
2 CONC lidation having been made in 1872.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Railroading in those days isn't what it is now.  To begin with, the en
2 CONC gines were dinky affairs with one pair of four and a half foot drive w
2 CONC heels, and burned wood.  It is reported that many a mile of good rai
2 CONC l fence along right-of-ways of the period disappeared mysteriously unt
2 CONC il the farmers learned to watch the trains go through.  Wemple has see
2 CONC n wood supplanted and peat, soft coal, blacksmith coal, hard coal an
2 CONC d oil burned at different times since, with electricity now looming a
2 CONC s it final successor.
2 CONT 
2 CONT REMEMBER CONFEDERATE PRISONERS
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was on this line when the Civil War broke out, and remembers how hi
2 CONC s pity was stirred when Confederate soldiers, clad in a few rags, wer
2 CONC e loaded into boxcars and shipped into the frosty North as prisoners
2 CONC . Closely guarded by Union soldiers in heavy overcoats, their breath
2 CONC s smoking in the crisp atmosphere, they made a picture Wemple could ne
2 CONC ver forget.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1863 an offer came to Wemple to return to his old love, the same br
2 CONC anch of the New York Central on which he had worked before.  It was he
2 CONC re that he piloted the funeral train which bore Lincoln's body from Sc
2 CONC henectady to Troy - there being no bridge at Albany at that time - o
2 CONC n the long run from Washington to Springfield, Ill., where the Preside
2 CONC nt's body still rests.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Great solemnity marked the progress of the Presidential cortege, Wempl
2 CONC e relates.  A pilot train ran ahead of the funeral train and cleared t
2 CONC he way.  Both were heavily draped in mourning and ran at a constant sp
2 CONC eed of 20 miles an hour.  One of the duties of the pilot train was t
2 CONC o stop all trains on the parallel track and make them wait until the f
2 CONC uneral train had passed.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At each station the bell of the engine tolled in proclamation and at t
2 CONC he larger cities the train stopped to let the populace file through fo
2 CONC r viewing of the body as it lay in state, heavily guarded.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Coming to Texas in 1871, he had the run between Texarkana and Whitesbo
2 CONC ro, which was the western limit of the Texas and Pacific Railway at th
2 CONC at time, and in 1888 he took over a switch engine in the Bonham yards
2 CONC , which he operated continuously until January of this year. Rheumatis
2 CONC m then intervened and forced him to pay a visit to the home of his so
2 CONC n here.
2 CONT 
2 CONT NOT THROUGH RAILROADING
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple insists that he is by no means through railroading, and that a
2 CONC s soon as he can walk a little better he will return to his throttle
2 CONC .  And in the meantime, if there is an engineer still on active duty
2 CONC  who can boast a longer record than his, Wemple would like to hear fr
2 CONC om him.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple's second wife, whom he married in 1900, was Miss Pearl Williams
2 CONC , a Fort Worth girl.  She is with him and their son, J.N. Wemple, at t
2 CONC his time.  She is a great-niece of the W.B. Tuckers, prominent in th
2 CONC e early history of the city.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It is a far cry from the old hand brakes and unstandardized gauge of t
2 CONC he roads on which Wemple first worked to the air-controlled monsters o
2 CONC f steel that now pull the nation's freight and passenger traffic acros
2 CONC s the continent, yet Wemple has one regret.
2 CONT 
2 CONT When they chose between the various gauges of track width which then o
2 CONC btained, ranging from three feet to six feet, the experts decided o
2 CONC n a width not much greater than the minimum of that day, he declares
2 CONC .  He recently tried to visualize the present size of rolling stock, i
2 CONC n comparison with the Rocky Mountain giants of today, had they adapte
2 CONC d the six-foot gauge as the standard. At least it would not be necessa
2 CONC ry to hook up seven of them to one snowplow, as he saw done in one Ne
2 CONC w York blizzard.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The following articles were sent to the compiler on Oct 27, 1997 by Al

2 CONC r Street, on on the verge of death, it was announced yesterday by hi
2 CONC s son, J.N. Wemple.  He was stricken with a heart attack five days ag
2 CONC o and on Thursday physicians declared his had only 32 hours to live
2 CONC .  He was resting comfortably last night, but growing weaker.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple was at the throttle of the engine which pulled the funeral trai
2 CONC n of President Abraham Lincoln and for 36 years was an active enginee
2 CONC r on the Texas & Pacific Railway.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He operated the miniature locomotive over the street car tracks on Mai
2 CONC n Street which led the parade in 1923, marking the diamond jubilee o
2 CONC f the founding of the old fort and the fiftieth anniversary of the Cit
2 CONC y of Fort Worth.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Born in Schenectady, N.Y., three years after the first train was put i
2 CONC n operation in 1830 at Charleston, Wemple jockied his first locomotiv
2 CONC e from Albany to Troy in 1851.  The eight-wheeler was gaining prominen
2 CONC ce for hauling both passengers and freight then.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple moved to Illinois in 1873, four years after the first transcont
2 CONC inental railroad was opened.  This was the eve of the great expansio
2 CONC n which in the Central and Middle Western States, was characterized b
2 CONC y wild speculation with lines being being extended so rapidly that the
2 CONC y were far ahead of the demand for carriers.  In 1870 there were 52,01
2 CONC 4 miles of railway in the United States.  This was increased 128,320 i
2 CONC n 1885, a year before Wemple came to Texas.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He made his home at Bonham, and went to work for the Texas & Pacific R
2 CONC ailway, just 10 years after the railroad had extended it's lines to Fo
2 CONC rt Worth.  He came to Fort Worth in 1922 and after operating a switchi
2 CONC ng engine in the local yards for a short time was put on the pension l
2 CONC ist. His first wife died in 1892 at Bonham and he married Miss Perli
2 CONC e Lou Williams of Fort Worth in 1900.  If he lives until Thursday the
2 CONC y will have been married 29 years.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. and Mrs. Wemple are making their home with their son, J.N. Wemple
2 CONC . They also have another son, Fred A., at Blossom and a daughter, Mrs
2 CONC . Fred Myers, of Bonham, who is at his bedside.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The second article, which is from the BONHAM, TEXAS DAILY FAVORITE dat
2 CONC ed October 1, 1928, reads as follows:
2 CONT 
2 CONT DADDY WEMPLE 95 HAPPY AND WELL; IS OUT ON FORT WORTH
2 CONT 
2 CONT TODAY, NEARLY 100 YEARS AGO, HE WAS BORN - GRAND OLD ENGINEER
2 CONT 
2 CONT Numbers of friends of A.J. Wemple, who for many years lived in this co
2 CONC mmunity, are sending him cards congratulating him on his birthday - h
2 CONC e is 95 years old today.
2 CONT 
2 CONT For many years, Mr. Wemple, as has often been stated, ran a switch eng
2 CONC ine in the Bonham yards, being on the day shift when switch engines bl
2 CONC oomed night and day in these parts. (It is as much as they can dare t
2 CONC o bloom these days just parts of the year.)
2 CONT 
2 CONT Dad, as the railroaders called him, could shunt the cars up and dow
2 CONC n the tracks to beat the band.  He learned way back yonder, before the
2 CONC y had any of these super-heated, monkey-motioned, trail-wheel engine
2 CONC s we now have, and such a thing as a booser adjunct was not even dream
2 CONC ed of.  In those good old days an engineer either got over a hill or h
2 CONC e doubled. Now he gets over, if he has the tonnage, for the booste
2 CONC r makes things go.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Here's to Dad,
2 CONT The engineer,
2 CONT Who handled the air
2 CONT Many a year.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Who rounded the horn,
2 CONT Made the coal chute,
2 CONT With many a puff
2 CONT And many a toot!
2 CONT 
2 CONT Grand old Daddy,
2 CONT We're glad you're alive
2 CONT At the patriarch age
2 CONT Of ninety-five!
2 CONT 
2 CONT Stay in there,
2 CONT And pitch good ball.
2 CONT And be a hundred,
2 CONT With no trouble at all.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Numbers are sending Dad post cards, and you might as well join the t
2 CONC hrong.   Mail them to him at 1118 East Tucker street, Fort Worth.

2 CONT 
2 CONT From a letter from George Jesse Wemple to the compiler dated October 2
2 CONC 9, 1975. DRW
2 CONT 
2 CONT Since communicating with you last I have concluded my research o
2 CONC n  . . . Charles T. Wemple (son of Henry Myndert Wemple), who was murd
2 CONC ered by his wife and hired man by poisoning on March 19, 1875, at Litt
2 CONC ly Valley, NY. An attorney in that area, whose grandfather was the pro
2 CONC secutor at the trial, provided me with a transcript of the trial detai
2 CONC ls; the hired man died in prison, and the wife, Emma Marsh, served 27-
2 CONC years in prison - she was released June 17, 1903, for good behavior, a
2 CONC nd a commutation of sentence.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From the work of George Jesse Wemple:
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was murdered by his wife and a hired man, Nelson H. Cool, age 22, b
2 CONC y the administration of either arsenic or strychnine in a corn tea.  E
2 CONC mma Wemple and Nelson Cool were arraigned for the murder on May 28, 18
2 CONC 75, and incarcerated in the Little Valley, NY County Jail for trial
2 CONC .  While in jail, Emma Wemple gave birth to a male child on about Jun
2 CONC e 3, 1875. Nelson Cool was assumed to have been the father.  On the da
2 CONC y following Charles T. Wemple's death, the father-in-law, Rueben Mars
2 CONC h requested the county coroner to hold an inquest on the body, due t
2 CONC o the suspicious nature of the death.  The inquest indicated death b
2 CONC y poisoning. The resulting trial proved that the hired man, Nelson H
2 CONC . Cool, had come to work at the Wemple farm about 1874, and in Septemb
2 CONC er, 1874, witnesses observed an intimacy between Emma Wemple and the h
2 CONC ired man.  The trial resulted in the conviction of Emma Wemple for mur
2 CONC der in the second degree, with a sentence of life imprisonment at Ward
2 CONC 's Island NY.  The sentence was commuted by Governor Odell on June 17
2 CONC , 1903 and she was released after serving 27 years with good behavior.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Nelson Cool was convicted of murder in the first degree and sentence
2 CONC d to be hanged on November 26, 1875, but the sentence was commuted t
2 CONC o life imprisonment.  He presumably hanged himself in prison about 188
2 CONC 4.  The crime for which Emma Wemple and Nelson Cool were convicted, wa
2 CONC s committed on what is currently know as Murder Hill, between Littl
2 CONC e Valley and Ellicottville, NY, and while Mrs. Wemple and the hired ma
2 CONC n tried to poison Charles T. Wemple, her children supposedly related t
2 CONC hat he was finally smothered under a feather bed.  In 1959, a new hous
2 CONC e was constructed on the murder site, and was currently lived in b
2 CONC y a Mr. J. Will.  Charles T. Wemple bought his house and lot on Fish H
2 CONC ill from a Mr. J. Puddy, but did not get a deed for it.  After Wemple'
2 CONC s death, Mr. Puddy gave the deed to Mrs. Wemple.  On March 29, 1875, c
2 CONC ounty records indicate that the father of Charles T., Henry M. Wemple
2 CONC , consented to become the guardian of Hattie and Charles W. Wemple, th
2 CONC e minor children of his son. GJW

2 CONT Mysterious and Determined Suicide of a Gowanda Lady.
2 CONT A Young Married Lady Poisons herself, Refused all Remedies and Dies Wi
2 CONC thout Revealing her Motive.
2 CONT 
2 CONT We hear from the [ ] that a young married lady, between eighteen and n
2 CONC ineteen years of age, wife of Mr. Wm. WEMPLE, of Gowanda, Cattaraugu
2 CONC s Co., committed suicide at Lockport, Erie Co., Pa., on the 15th ult.
2 CONC , with almost unparalleled premeditation and determination and from mo
2 CONC tives which she studiously concealed to the last. Mrs. WEMPLE's fathe
2 CONC r is a farmer, named W. W. ACKLER, residing at Gowanda, N.Y., where sh
2 CONC e was married last July, and has lived most of the time since. She cam
2 CONC e to Lockport on the 14th ult., accompanied by her husband, with the
2 CONC n intention of paying his brother, Mr. John WEMPLE, a visit. The after
2 CONC noon of the same day she complained of a headache, and about six o'clo
2 CONC ck in the evening became so ill that she was compelled to lie down upo
2 CONC n a sofa. About eight o'clock she was seized with convulsions. This ap
2 CONC pears, from the questions of her husband, to have aroused his suspicio
2 CONC ns, and he asked her what she had taken. She replied nothing, insiste
2 CONC d that she only had a sick headache, and refused to receive medical ai
2 CONC d. Her condition became so alarming that her husband called in two phy
2 CONC sicians, who were satisfied that she had taken some kind of poison an
2 CONC d endeavored to administer antidotes. She refused to take the remedies
2 CONC , and when medicine was forced into her mouth, spit it out, and even c
2 CONC arefully wiped her lips with her handkerchief. Meantime the poison wa
2 CONC s slowly but surely doing its work; she again went into spasms, whic
2 CONC h occurred at intervals until Friday morning about six o'clock, when s
2 CONC he died.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. WEMPLE was noticed to go upstairs frequently during the afternoo
2 CONC n preceding her death, and it is supposed did so for the purpose of se
2 CONC cretly taking the poison in small and repeated doses. She went behin
2 CONC d the house just at evening, and probably after taking the last dose -
2 CONC - hid the vial containing the poison, under a board, where it was foun
2 CONC d entirely empty, with the name of the poison carefully erased from th
2 CONC e label, which bears the name of a druggist at Gowanda. She procured t
2 CONC he poison at the place the Saturday previous to leaving home, by sendi
2 CONC ng a boy after it. When questioned as to what he went for, she replie
2 CONC d a spool of thread. Here is conclusive proof that her death was not t
2 CONC he result of sudden aberration of mind, but of a deliberate purpose, w
2 CONC hich she went to Lockport to consummate.
2 CONT 
2 CONT What kind of poison she used is not known, as the vial when found, wa
2 CONC s empty, and no inquest was held or post mortem examination made. An i
2 CONC nquest, most certainly, should have been held, for the protection of h
2 CONC er husband and those with whom she was with at the time of her death
2 CONC , for although they are, unquestionably, entirely innocent of the crim
2 CONC e of taking her life, they might be subject to great inconvenience an
2 CONC d unjust suspicion, by neglecting to obey the law and receive the exon
2 CONC eration of an official investigation.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The only clue the unfortunate lady gave as to the motive impelling he
2 CONC r to self murder, was the remark just previous to her death that, al
2 CONC l this wouldn't have happened if it hadn't been for mother. Her marri
2 CONC ed life and conduct do not furnish to her friends at Lockport, any clu
2 CONC e to what she meant by this declaration. She did not appear to be unha
2 CONC ppy, but on the contrary was regarded as a contented and industrious y
2 CONC oung lady. Her husband is well nigh heart broken by this calamity, whi
2 CONC ch has so suddenly and terribly snatched from him an adored wife in th
2 CONC e full bloom of youth and health.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. Wemple's remains were taken to Gowanda for interment.

1 NOTE A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY OF GEORGE W. WEMPLE, by his son, Daniel Schuyler Wem
2 CONC ple, July 25, 1997
2 CONT 
2 CONT George W. Wemple was born January 8, 1898 in Fergus Falls, Minnesota t
2 CONC o Daniel Schuyler Wemple (11/28/1853-5/4/1924).  He was the eighth o
2 CONC f ten children, seven of whom lived to adulthood and three died of th
2 CONC e 1901-1902 diphtheria epidemic.  Few specifics are known of his earl
2 CONC y years, much to the chagrin of myself, so we assume he had a 'normal
2 CONC ' childhood for the time and locale.  He had little formal education
2 CONC , six years at most, however he did much to to educate himself in al
2 CONC l practical matters, and enjoyed reading, especially the newspaper whi
2 CONC ch kept him informed.  This paid off in later years as he became an el
2 CONC ectrician and earned his electrical contracting license.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After serving as a cavalryman During World War I, George married Pear
2 CONC l Adele Jellum (8/14/1895-3/26/1976) August 21, 1921 and in 1923 bega
2 CONC n farming a few miles west of Fergus Falls where he grew up.  They ha
2 CONC d four children whom they loved dearly and enjoyed very much and altho
2 CONC ugh, like most depression families, they had little in the way of mate
2 CONC rial things, the whole family enjoyed life by the closeness of large f
2 CONC amilies on both sides (Pearl was one of 14, 12 living to adulthood) an
2 CONC d many friends. Everyone visited everyone in those days and we flouris
2 CONC hed in that environment.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Farming became more and more difficult as the depression set in and i
2 CONC n 1933, after ten years, he could no longer make a go of it and move
2 CONC d his family, now six, to Fergus Falls, a city of 10,214, as the Fergu
2 CONC s Falls Daily Journal reminded us daily, and the largest city in the w
2 CONC estern half of the state.  Jobs were few but he managed to get on at t
2 CONC he State Hospital, a mental institution, as a sheet metal mechanic an
2 CONC d supplemented his income during the winter months by cleaning heatin
2 CONC g furnaces, using a huge vacuum cleaning apparatus.  He worked long ho
2 CONC urs but nothing like when he was on the farm, and leisure time for the
2 CONC m and the children led to more friendships.
2 CONT 
2 CONT By 1937, four years after leaving the farm, George and Pearl decided t
2 CONC o pick up stakes again, only this time to make a long move to Californ
2 CONC ia where both had siblings.  So, we had a house sale and headed out i
2 CONC n our 1929 Plymouth with all our belongings packed mostly in a huge wo
2 CONC oden box George made and mounted on the rear bumper; we were Okies thr
2 CONC ough and through.  We traveled west and a little north through North D
2 CONC akota, Montana, Idaho and Washington, then turned south through Orego
2 CONC n and finally California, stopping to stay with relatives here and the
2 CONC re. George heard they needed a sheet metal mechanic in Yreka, Californ
2 CONC ia. So we lived there for two or three months while he ran the town'
2 CONC s second sheet metal shop.  Soon he realized that Yreka was too big fo
2 CONC r one shop but too small for two so when his backlog work was gone h
2 CONC e continued on south to Santa Monica.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In and around the Santa Monica area George found work in a lumber yard
2 CONC , a hardware store, as a truck driver and warehouse manager for a larg
2 CONC e electrical contractor.  During this period he continued studying t
2 CONC o become an electrician and then got his license as an electrical cont
2 CONC ractor.  They also lost a son at age thirteen due to infection (d. 2 J
2 CONC uly 1939) that a few years later would have been successfully treate
2 CONC d with penicillin.  After their youngest son, Roger, finished high sch
2 CONC ool in 1948 George and Pearl moved back to Minnesota where he contract
2 CONC ed with farmers throughout the Fergus Falls area to install electricit
2 CONC y in their homes and barns.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Unfortunately this endeavor lasted only three years as in 1951 he suff
2 CONC ered a severe heart attack that forced early retirement at age 53. So
2 CONC , they moved back to California and worked as a caretaker of a ranch (
2 CONC a non-productive ranch near Idyllwood used as a getaway for a wealth
2 CONC y family) until his death of heart failure July 10, 1956.  Although h
2 CONC e died at a much too early age, George enjoyed a full life, seeing hi
2 CONC s remaining three children marry and begin raising their own familie
2 CONC s (six grandchildren at the time of his death) and continuing to b
2 CONC e a very active member to both his immediate and extended families.  H
2 CONC e also enjoyed becoming Uncle George or a second father figure to hi
2 CONC s children's close friends. After George died Pearl lived with two o
2 CONC f her sisters in Los Angeles and lived another twenty years, until 197
2 CONC 6.  She continued the same active roll she had always enjoyed with h
2 CONC e children, ten grandchildren and at the time she died, four great-gra
2 CONC ndchildren.  We are all blessed for having had them.

2 CONT Memory of the Fergus Falls Tornado -(1918?) (as related to me by my mo
2 CONC ther Frances Wemple (Bowers). 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Frances and several friends had been out for the afternoon. (I believ
2 CONC e she said it was a Sunday.) The sky began to be extremely ominous. Th
2 CONC e dark clouds took on a greenish tint. The air smelled musty. The girl
2 CONC s realized that a severe storm was pending and decided to hurry home
2 CONC . Frances suggested that they all go to her house on Summit Avenue, bu
2 CONC t the others felt they should go to their own homes. Shortly after he
2 CONC r arrival at her house, the storm hit. Her dad, D.S. Wemple, was a lar
2 CONC ge man, known for his unusual strength. As the wind hit, he decided t
2 CONC o step outside to size things up. He was blown to the ground and cam
2 CONC e crawling back to safety. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT When the storm had passed, everyone went out to survey the havoc. Fran
2 CONC ces remembered being impressed by such sights as straw blown into th
2 CONC e brick of the nearby creamery, and of course, unbelievable damage t
2 CONC o property everywhere. The sad thing was that two of the friends wit
2 CONC h whom she had spent the afternoon were killed in the storm.

1 NOTE The following is an article sent to David Wemple by Harry Wemple's gra
2 CONC ndson, Raymond Willard Wemple, and first printed in an Albany newspape
2 CONC r in 1896 and reprinted in The Niskayuna/Scotia/Rotterdam Spotlight, A
2 CONC lbany, NY on March 14, 1968: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The winding road skirting the Normanskill Creek flowing 90 feet below
2 CONC , west of Kenwood, was the scene of an accident yesterday morning whic
2 CONC h chilled the blood of the three people who experienced the terrible o
2 CONC rdeal. Two horses went over the ragged precipice and but for the jumpi
2 CONC ng of the occupants of the wagon, they probably would have met the sam
2 CONC e fate. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Harry S. Wemple, the milk dealer of Bethlehem, who has a large route i
2 CONC n the city and vicinity, accompanied by his little son, Harry, age
2 CONC d 8 years, and his helper, Joe Loshier, aged 19 years, was driving alo
2 CONC ng the road that leads over the Devil's Bridge in the Kenwood cut, whe
2 CONC n one of the horses shied and the team went over the precipice. The wa
2 CONC gon followed on top of them, and Mr. Wemple picked up his son in his a
2 CONC rms and leaped to a place of safety just as the forward wheels went ov
2 CONC er the cliff. Loshier also leaped, and got out of the wagon while it w
2 CONC as in midair. The horses fell to the bottom of the abyss where their m
2 CONC angled remains were nestled among the jagged rock. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The scene of the accident is one of the most picturesque of the many s
2 CONC cenes in this vicinity. It is located about one-forth of a mile sout
2 CONC h of the celebrated Kenwood convent. About 100 yards to the west are t
2 CONC he falls of the Normanskill, while the kill flows through the declivit
2 CONC y in a gentle sweep among the rocks with which the place abounds and t
2 CONC apping the borders of a sloping burst of meadowland upon the south
2 CONC . A long, narrow island, shaped like a toothpick, is in the kill jus
2 CONC t below the scene of the accident and directly opposite is the wheel h
2 CONC ouse where is gathered the power that supplies Chamberlain's grist mil
2 CONC l. Upon either side of the kill at his point there rises a high precip
2 CONC itous wall of rock, breaking the face of the ground into rugged grande
2 CONC ur. On the southeast side of the canyon the rock rises to a height o
2 CONC f at least 300 feet and its top is fringed with trees that stand out i
2 CONC n gaunt perspective against the sky. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple arose as usual yesterday morning shortly before 5 A.M. an
2 CONC d attended to some of the chores that were necessary to be done abou
2 CONC t the place where he lives, which is a short distance from the scene o
2 CONC f the accident. At half-past five he hitched up the team and with hi
2 CONC s son and assistant started out to serve the customers. There were 8 c
2 CONC ans in the wagon, each full of milk, and a number of milkman's sundrie
2 CONC s in the bottom of the wagon under the seat. While the horses were bei
2 CONC ng driven over the Devil's Bridge, which is built over the culvert thr
2 CONC ough which the trains of the D & H Railroad Company roll, they showe
2 CONC d signs of being restive, and as the east end of the bridge was reache
2 CONC d they were almost beyond control. Joe was driving and Wemple was on t
2 CONC he side away from the gulch. As the team struck the opposite side of t
2 CONC he bridge, a cloud of smile came through the cracks of the structure a
2 CONC nd the horses' speed was accelerated there at greatly. (Unintelligible
2 CONC ) . . . surmounts the top of the cliff and were in mid-air. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple yelled to Joe to jump, and seizing little Harry about the waist
2 CONC , despite his lameness for rheumatism and the cramped position he wa
2 CONC s in, he leaped to the ground while his helper followed him. The horse
2 CONC s plunged to the bottom in a heap, the wagon on top of them. The air w
2 CONC as full of flying mild tickets and milk cans, while the milk flowed th
2 CONC rough the roots and stumps of the hillside and soaked the ground as th
2 CONC ough it were rain. One of the horses, May, was a very valuable anima
2 CONC l and lived for about 15 minutes after the accident, but her companio
2 CONC n a gray horse, was killed instantly. Mr. Wemple was able to secure 24
2 CONC 0 quarts of milk from neighboring farmers and supplied those of his cu
2 CONC stomers that he could, and the debris from the accident was removed la
2 CONC te in the day. A large number of people came down to the scene durin
2 CONC g the morning. 
2 CONT

2 CONC e year 1896 and gives us a very quick glimpse into how life was live

2 CONT GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ripley might well include it under the Believe It or Not heading- th
2 CONC e fact that H. Seymour Wemple is painting his house. Not that there i
2 CONC s anything unusual in the painting of a house, but when the brush-swin
2 CONC ger is 85 years old, as is this Fultonville resident, that makes quit
2 CONC e a difference. According to the evidence secured by the Inquiring Pho
2 CONC tographer, it is going to be a costly job, because for every brush ful
2 CONC l that goes on the building, one goes on the overalls too. However, an
2 CONC yone nimble enough at 85 to climb a ladder and swing a brush is licens
2 CONC ed to put paint where he pleases.
2 CONT 
2 CONT This Leonardo da Vinci of the clapboards has led a busy, colorful life
2 CONC . H. Seymour Wemple was born in the Town of Mohawk April 26, 1861, an
2 CONC d is the last living member of a family of seven.  In 1883 he marrie
2 CONC d Jenny Fisher, and the following year went to work in New Haven, Conn
2 CONC ., as cashier for John H. Starin Transportation Company. That was in t
2 CONC he days before thehighway express, when transportation meant shippin
2 CONC g by boat. One year with this company and he decided he would never ge
2 CONC t rich working for someone else, so he purchased a retail coal busines
2 CONC s in the village of Fort Plain, and operated it profitably for eight y
2 CONC ears.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A born farmer, Mr. Wemple sold out his coal business and bought a far
2 CONC m on the outskirts of Johnstown where he raised poultry and dairy stoc
2 CONC k. While on the farm, he developed a cage for exhibiting prize poultr
2 CONC y and pet stock.  This cage was in such demand that he set up a plan
2 CONC t in an old foundry in Fultonville, calling it the Empire Cooping Comp
2 CONC any.   Before long he was employing 22 men to keep the supply equal t
2 CONC o the demand. Besides selling the cages outright, he had 10,000 of the
2 CONC m which he rented to poultry shows, pet shows and county and state fai
2 CONC rs up and down the east coast from Maine to Florida and as far west a
2 CONC s the Mississippi River. Mr. Wemple's company equipped the New York St
2 CONC ate Fair buildings in Syracuse with more than 1,000 cages which are st
2 CONC ill in use.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After 18 years of smooth sailing for his company, World War I came alo
2 CONC ng, bringing with it transportation difficulties and the usual shortag
2 CONC es in materials and labor. Mr. Wemple, then 58 years old, decided it w
2 CONC as too much for him to handle, since his brother Marshall F. Wemple, w
2 CONC ho had been his road man, had suffered a break-down in health, and a s
2 CONC uitable traveling representative was not available, so he disposed o
2 CONC f the business. Figuring he was still much too young and active to ret
2 CONC ire, he subsequently served two terms as county supervisor for the Tow
2 CONC n of Glen.
2 CONT 
2 CONT During his tenure of office, the farmers of that section erected the m
2 CONC ilk plant of the Mohawk and Glen Milk Association and Mr. Wemple was d
2 CONC rafted to conduct this enterprise. He was given carte blanche, bein
2 CONC g a combination manager, secretary and treasurer, and the board of dir
2 CONC ectors had such faith in him that they met only once a year, and the
2 CONC n only as a matter of form, to fulfill the mandatory provisions of th
2 CONC e by laws. He operated the milk plant so efficiently that a $65,000 de
2 CONC bt was liquidated in ten years and a four per cent dividend paid on al
2 CONC l stock.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Twenty two years later, World War II raised its ugly head and confront
2 CONC ed with the usual restrictions and hardships of running a civilian bus
2 CONC iness during a war, he came to the conclusion that it was more than h
2 CONC e could contend with. however, he remained at his post until 1944, whe
2 CONC n he retired to the seclusion of his home and garden.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Among Mr. Wemple's other interests are his Masonic activities. The old
2 CONC est living past master of the Fulton Herkimer-Montgomery Masonic Distr
2 CONC ict, Mr. Wemple was presented a 50 year service medal by the Grand Lod
2 CONC ge of New York State on his 85th birthday anniversary. The presentatio
2 CONC n was made at Fultonville Lodge by Herbert T. Singer, then district de
2 CONC puty grand master.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Upon looking over his house this spring he found it in need of a fres
2 CONC h coat of paint. The contract was let, but the painters won't be abl
2 CONC e to get there until late this summer. Desiring to have the job finish
2 CONC ed as soon as possible, so that he could get to work in his garden, Mr
2 CONC . Wemple made up his mind to do some of it himself. Contrary to the ru
2 CONC les of painting, he is starting at the bottom and working up, leavin
2 CONC g the higher reaches for the younger and more agile. He derives his pa
2 CONC inting experience from the time when his father owned the Montgomery C
2 CONC ounty Farm, where a painter was kept busy all year. As a ten-year ol
2 CONC d lad he would follow the painter around helping where he could and ga
2 CONC rnering knowledge from a professional. He little realized that 75 year
2 CONC s later he would put to use what he had learned as a youth.

2 CONC , 2000, Bay City, MI:
2 CONT 
2 CONT Oswald served with the Canadian Infantry (Alberta Regiment) of the CE
2 CONC F in WWI. His regimental number was 184119. At the time of his death h
2 CONC e was a Lance Corporal.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Oswald's name is on the Vimy Memorial.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Canada's most impressive tribute to those Canadians who fought and gav
2 CONC e their lives in the First World War is the majestic and inspiring VIM
2 CONC Y MEMORIAL, which overlooks the Douai Plain from the highest point o
2 CONC f Vimy Ridge, about eight kilometres northeast of Arras on the N17 tow
2 CONC ards Lens. The Memorial is signposted from this road to the left, jus
2 CONC t before you enter the village of Vimy from the south. The memorial it
2 CONC self is someway inside the memorial park, but again it is well signpos
2 CONC ted.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The VIMY MEMORIAL does more than mark the site of the engagement whic
2 CONC h Canadians were to remember with more pride than any other operatio
2 CONC n of the First World War. It stands as a tribute to all who served the
2 CONC ir country in battle in that four-year struggle and particularly to th
2 CONC ose who gave their lives. At the base of the VIMY MEMORIAL these word
2 CONC s appear in French and in English:
2 CONT 
2 CONT To the valour of their Countrymen in the great war And in memory of th
2 CONC eir sixty Thousand
2 CONT dead this monument Is raised by the people of Canada.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Inscribed on the ramparts of the VIMY MEMORIAL are the names of over 1
2 CONC 1,000 Canadian soldiers who were posted as 'missing, presumed dead' i
2 CONC n France.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The land for the battlefield park, 91.18 hectares in extent, was (as s
2 CONC tated on a plaque at the entrance to the VIMY MEMORIAL) 'the free gif
2 CONC t in perpetuity of the French nation to the people of Canada'. Eleve
2 CONC n thousand tonnes of concrete and masonry were required for the base o
2 CONC f the VIMY MEMORIAL[,] and 5,500 tonnes of 'trau' stone were brought f
2 CONC rom Yugoslavia for the pylons and the sculptured figures. Constructio
2 CONC n of the massive work began in 1925, and 11 years later, on July 26, 1
2 CONC 936, the monument was unveiled by King Edward VIII.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The park surrounding the VIMY MEMORIAL was created by horticultural ex
2 CONC perts. Canadian trees and shrubs were planted in great masses to resem
2 CONC ble the woods and forests of Canada. Around the VIMY MEMORIAL, beyon
2 CONC d the grassy slopes of the approaches, are wooded parklands. Trenche
2 CONC s and tunnels have been restored and preserved and the visitor can pic
2 CONC ture the magnitude of the task that faced the Canadian Corps on that d
2 CONC istant dawn when history was made.

2 CONC k's Tour of the Front, and on that particular day one had gone for a d
2 CONC rive with one of Major-General John Salmond's staff from RAF Advance
2 CONC d Headquarters by Velu Wood. We had lunched at Honnechy, at the wing H
2 CONC eadquarters of Lieutenant-Colonel A.E. cairnes, DSO (commonly known a
2 CONC s Tommy), now a Senator in the Irish Free State and thence had drive
2 CONC n up the Valenciennes road toward Bertry to visit some of our advance
2 CONC d aerodromes. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The enemy at that time had some long range guns in the Forest of Morma
2 CONC l with which they were shelllng the road by the map, as the sky was to
2 CONC o unhealthy for thelr aircraft to spot for their artillery. The road r
2 CONC an along a ridge with a valley on the west side, and on the opposite s
2 CONC ide of this valley was an aerodrome on which was a squadron commande
2 CONC d by Major Wemp, who had his camp in the valley. There was a strong wi
2 CONC nd from the East and most of the shells were going over the road int
2 CONC o the valley, which was fortunate because the road was just about as c
2 CONC rowded as is picadilly in the height of the season, what with troops a
2 CONC nd transport going up for the big attack which was to start next morni
2 CONC ng, and incidentally end the war, and with empty transport coming bac
2 CONC k down the road. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT We turned down into the valley and at the bottom we were met by a corp
2 CONC oral who directed us up to the aerodrome and warned us that the camp h
2 CONC ad been vacated because of shell fire. When we got to the aerodrome w
2 CONC e found Bert Wemp and his officers sitting on the edge of the plateau
2 CONC , as there did not happen to be any flying golng on at the time, looki
2 CONC ng down at their camp and using the most horrible language because abo
2 CONC ut ten minutes earller a shell had dropped into their mess-tent and br
2 CONC oken every bottle in the mess.

1 NOTE The following was sent to the compiler on January 6, 2003 by Mary Lyn
2 CONC n McManus Toluchanian, Sierra Madre, CA: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT NANCY AMELIA ROSS (was) born 29 October 1832, Orange, Richland Co., Oh
2 CONC io (per pages purported to be from the Ross Family Bible) or Sullivan
2 CONC , Lorain Co., Ohio (per death certificate, interment record, and obitu
2 CONC ary). (She) died 20 June 1918, Kansas City, Wyandotte Co., Kansas (an
2 CONC d was) buried 26 June 1918, Topeka Cemetery, Topeka, Shawnee Co., Kans
2 CONC as. (She is the) daughter of Sylvester Flint Ross and Sinthy (or Cynth
2 CONC ia) Rice. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Nancy's obituary appeared in the Kansas City Sun (Kansas City, Kansa
2 CONC s), issue of 12 July 1918, page 1. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT MRS. AMELIA WEMPLE DIES. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT At 35 minutes past 5 o'clock, Thursday morning, June 20, 1918, Nancy A
2 CONC melia Wemple passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. F. D. Hutch
2 CONC ings, 624 Freeman avenue, Kansas City, Kansas, aged 85 years, 7 month
2 CONC s and 21 days. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. Wemple was one of the pioneer women of Kansas.  She was born in S
2 CONC ullivan, Ashland County, Ohio, October 29, 1832, and removed with he
2 CONC r parents, when quite a young child, to Shopiere, Wisconsin, where sh
2 CONC e resided until she was married to S. P. Wemple, June 30, 1855. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Her father, Sylvester Flint Ross, was a man of great force of characte
2 CONC r, and a very pronounced anti-slavery advocate.  In 1855 the contest i
2 CONC n Kansas Territory over the question of whether it should be admitte
2 CONC d as a free or slave state was becoming very bitter, and the eyes of a
2 CONC ll the anti-slavery people of the north were turned toward Bleeding K
2 CONC ansas. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT S. P. Wemple was in thorough sympathy with the anti-slavery procliviti
2 CONC es of his bride, Nancy Ross, and her people, and after their marriage
2 CONC , Mr. and Mrs. Wemple, Mrs. Wemple's father, Sylvester F. Ross, and he
2 CONC r mother, her brother, William Ross, and his wife, also a bride, start
2 CONC ed overland in prairie schooners for Kansas, and arrived in Lawrence s
2 CONC ometime in July of the same year.  Another brother of Mrs. Wemple's, E
2 CONC dmund G. Ross, afterwards United States Senator from Kansas, soon foll
2 CONC owed, and the Rosses and Wemples at once became prominent in the conte
2 CONC st then being waged between the two factions in the territory.  They w
2 CONC ere visited a number of times by hands of pro-slavery advocates and th
2 CONC reatened with violence because they would not surrender a free negro k
2 CONC nown as Jonah, who had come with them to Kansas, so that he could b
2 CONC e sold back into slavery.  One of the incidents connected with the per
2 CONC secution of Jonah is depicted in Mrs. Humphrey's book, Squatter Sov
2 CONC ereignty.  It finally became necessary to send Jonah back north to pr
2 CONC event his being kidnapped. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. Wemple helped make bullets in the Wakarusa War, attended the ba
2 CONC nquet to Governor Shannon, at its close, and took part in all the acti
2 CONC vities that finally resulted in Kansas being admitted into the Union a
2 CONC s a free state.  She was living in Lawrence at the time of Quantrell'
2 CONC s raid, but fortunately was on a visit to her father at Glen Ross, i
2 CONC n Pottawatomie County.  Her home and its contents were destroyed. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT In 1868 Mr. and Mrs. Wemple and her brother, William Ross, went to Flo
2 CONC rida, where they started an orange and sugar plantation on St. John Ri
2 CONC ver.  They were expecting to gather the first crop when a frost, an al
2 CONC most unheard of thing in that latitude, destroyed the work of years i
2 CONC n a single night, and they abandoned their property and came north aga
2 CONC in, and Mr. Wemple became interested in mining properties in Arizona
2 CONC .  When the children were of proper age they came back to Kansas so th
2 CONC ey could have the advantages of schools, and made their home in Lawren
2 CONC ce, and the two older children entered the State University.  Mr. Wemp
2 CONC le while on one of his trips to Arizona to look after his mining inter
2 CONC ests, was attacked by a band of Geronimo's Indians and killed near th
2 CONC e little town of Graterville, May 25, 1886. Mrs. Wemple was thus lef
2 CONC t with the responsibility of providing for and looking after the compl
2 CONC etion of the education of her children, which, with their assistance
2 CONC , she did. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT One of her sons, Ross Wemple, after leaving the University went to Ol
2 CONC d Mexico, where he became an expert in the locating and selection of l
2 CONC ands proper for the cultivation of coffee, sugar and rubber, and for m
2 CONC any years was connected with the Real Estate Company of Mexico, with h
2 CONC eadquarters in the City of Mexico, and Editor of the Mexican Journal o
2 CONC f Commerce, a publication devoted to the promotion of the coffee, suga
2 CONC r and rubber industry in Mexico, and especially on the Isthmus of Teha
2 CONC untepee.  Mr. Ross Wemple died in the City of Mexico, February 20, 190
2 CONC 6. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. Wemple during the last years of her life, has made her home par
2 CONC t of the time with her sons and part of time with her daughter, Mrs. F
2 CONC . D. Hutchings, of this city.  She was taken seriously ill Monday, Jun
2 CONC e 17, 1918, with pneumonia, and gradually grew weaker until her death
2 CONC , Thursday morning following. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mrs. Wemple was of Revolutionary ancestry, three of her great-grandfat
2 CONC hers having served under Washington during the dark days of the Revolu
2 CONC tionary War.  She was a member of the Daughters of the American Revolu
2 CONC tion, and a charter member of James Ross Chapter of Kansas City, Kansa
2 CONC s, which was named in honor of one of her ancestors. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT She leaves surviving her a son, Flint L. Wemple, and a daughter, Mrs
2 CONC . F. D. Hutchings, wife of Judge Hutchings of this city.  Her son resi
2 CONC des in Camaguey, Cuba, and is Vice President of the Cuba Railway and A
2 CONC merican Consul at Camaguey.  She also leaves a sister, Mrs. E. M. Hewi
2 CONC ns, of Amarillo, Texas, widow of the late Ed. M. Hewins, one of the fi
2 CONC rm of Hewins & Titus, large ranchmen of Kansas and Oklahoma.  Mr. Hewi
2 CONC ns was State Senator from Elk County, Kansas, in 1885, and for years w
2 CONC as prominent in Kansas politics. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The funeral was held at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. F. D. Hutc
2 CONC hings, 624 Freeman avenue, Tuesday, June 25, 1918, and interment too
2 CONC k place June 26, in Topeka Cemetery, Topeka, Kansas, beside her husban

2 CONT Excerpt from DECISION AT ST. VITH by Charles Whiting, page 214:
2 CONT 
2 CONT . . . Clarke's men were not so fortunate. The southern force of the 7t
2 CONC h Armored CCB was the first to more out on Clarke's sector. Under comm
2 CONC and of Lieutenant Colonel Wemple, this group tried to disengage, but f
2 CONC ound it extremely difficult. In despair Colonel Wemple ordered the tan
2 CONC ks and assault guns, which had retreated during the night under the fi
2 CONC re of the German bazooka teams, back into the village of Cromback to d
2 CONC rive the Germans grenadiers from their position.
2 CONT 
2 CONT But the tank attack failed. Using the only road available to them, th
2 CONC e armored vehicles were subjected to a withering barrage of German ant
2 CONC i-tank fire. Within minutes, two of the lead tanks were hit, completel
2 CONC y blocking the path of the advance. In disorder the Americans pulled b
2 CONC ack and there was nothing left for Wemple to do but load his infantr
2 CONC y onto the remaining tanks and armored vehicles and break off the figh
2 CONC t with the enemy as best he could.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Excerpts from the official Army's account of the Battle of the Bulge:
2 CONT 
2 CONT . . . Lt. Col. Fred M. Warren, acting commanding officer, sent the dri
2 CONC ver onto division headquarters to tell his story, and at the same tim
2 CONC e he asked for a company of infantry. He then ordered the 17th Tank Ba
2 CONC ttalion (Lt. Col. John P. Wemple) to send a tank company into Recht. W
2 CONC arren and Wemple studied the road net as shown on the map and agreed t
2 CONC o try to hold Recht through the night. Stragglers came pouring throug
2 CONC h Recht in the meantime with rumors and reports of the enemy just behi
2 CONC nd them. The headquarters and tank company had little time to get set
2 CONC , for about 0200 the advance guard of the southern German column hit t
2 CONC he village from the east and northeast. Unwilling to risk his tanks wi
2 CONC thout infantry protection in a night fight through the narrow streets
2 CONC , and uncertain of the enemy strength, Warren ordered a withdrawal aft
2 CONC er a sharp 45-minute engagement. CCR headquarters started down the roa
2 CONC d southwest toward Vielsalm and the tanks rejoined Wemple.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Made cautious by the collision at Recht, the German column moved slowl
2 CONC y, putting out feelers to the southeast before the main force resume
2 CONC d the march southwest along he Vielsalm road. Wemple and his tankers w
2 CONC ere able to repel these probing attempts without difficulty. CCR headq
2 CONC uarters had meanwhile become ensnared witht he remnants of the 14th Ca
2 CONC valry Group and the residue of the corps artillery columns at the litt
2 CONC le village of Poteau, where the roads from Recht and St. Vith join e
2 CONC n route to Vielsalm. This crossroads hamlet had been the worst bottlen
2 CONC eck in the traffic jam on 17 December; indeed the situation seems to h
2 CONC ave been completely out of hand when the CCR headquarters arrived in t
2 CONC he early morning hours and succeeded in restoring some order.  . . .

2 CONT 
2 CONT (Starting on Page 5, paragraph four) 
2 CONT . . .During the night of the 25th and 26th of August, 1944, CCR unde
2 CONC r which the 17th Tank Battalion was operating, was ordered to go bac
2 CONC k across the Seine and proceed to Fontainbleau on the east side of th
2 CONC e Seine River. Lt. Colonel Wemple was commended very highly for the ma
2 CONC nner in which he moved his Battalion back across the Seine at Tilly. T
2 CONC his crossing was very congested and Lt. Colonel Wemple showed excellen
2 CONC t control and initiative in getting the Battalion back across the Rive
2 CONC r. The Battalion started moving out of the area at Boise de St. Assiz
2 CONC e at 0715 on 26 August, 1944, moved into an assembly position at Villi
2 CONC ers where the Battalion was reorganized. At 1625, the Battalion left t
2 CONC he assembly area at Villiers for the advance to Fontainbleau. The Batt
2 CONC alion crossed the Seine River at Fontainbleau about 1700 and closed i
2 CONC n an assembly area near the village of Samoreau at 1815. The Battalio
2 CONC n did not contact the enemy during this operation and remained in th
2 CONC e assembly area during the night of the 26th and 27th of August, 1944.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Battalion departed from the assembly area at Samereau at 0700, 2
2 CONC 7 August, 1944 and proceeded along the route of Vulaines, Hericy, Char
2 CONC trettes, Melun, Chatillen, Chapelle, arriving in this vicinity at 102
2 CONC 0 and going into an assembly position here.
2 CONT 
2 CONT (Page 6)
2 CONT At 1420, 27 August, 1944, CCR issued an order breaking the command int
2 CONC o three forces, each of which was to proceed to Verdun along differen
2 CONC t routes. This order was in compliance with Division Field Order #8. O
2 CONC ne force was to follow Route A, one Route E, and one Route F. The 17t
2 CONC h Tank Battalion was broken down for this operation in the following m
2 CONC anner: Task Force A was commanded by Lt. Colonel Wemple, was compose
2 CONC d of Company A, 17th Tank Battalion, 38th Armored Infantry, Batter
2 CONC y C of the 440th Field Artillery, one platoon of Engineers from th
2 CONC e 33rd Engineers, One platoon of the 814th Tank Destroyer Battalion, a
2 CONC nd Headquarters Company of the 17th Tank Battalion. This force A was t
2 CONC o follow route A. Company D of the 17th Tank Battalion was assigne
2 CONC d to Task Force E which was commanded by Major Rankin, Company C o
2 CONC f the 17th Tank Battalion was assigned to Task Force F which was comma
2 CONC nded by Lt. Colonel Keeler. The 17th Tank Battalion, Service Company
2 CONC , was broken up equally between the Task Forces. Company D of the 17
2 CONC th Tank Battalion reverted to CCR control and was to follow CCR alon
2 CONC g Route E. The Battalion Headquarters was retained with Task Force A c
2 CONC ommanded by Lt. Colonel Wemple. We were not in contact with the othe
2 CONC r Forces during the operation so that at this time we only have the hi
2 CONC story of Task Force A. The mission of Task Force was to follow a Tas
2 CONC k Force from CCB along route A and to ready to and to be ready to giv
2 CONC e assistance if needed. Task Force A or Task Force Wemple left the ass
2 CONC embly area in the vicinity of Chapelle-Gauthier at 1835, 27 August, 19
2 CONC 44 and proceeded along the route Rountainelles, Nangis, Moison-Rouge
2 CONC , Vulaines, Morolles, Maptery, going into an assembly position near St
2 CONC . Genest at 0100, 28 August, 1944. The town of Provins was by passed b
2 CONC ecause of strong enemy forces there.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At 0700 on 28 August, 1944, Task Force Wemple left from assembly posit
2 CONC ion near St. Genest and traveled on Route Bouchy-le-Repos, les-Essarts
2 CONC , Barbonne, Saudoy, Sezanne, Allemant, Brossy-le-Grd, Bonnes, Aulnizeu
2 CONC x and Caligny. At this point we ran into light enemy resistance and ca
2 CONC ptured some prisoners, the exact number of which is unknown because mo
2 CONC st of them were taken by the Infantry and were sent back before a reco
2 CONC rd was made. This action occurred at 1215 on 28 August, 1944. Task For
2 CONC ce Wemple advanced on to Bertus and went into assembly position at L
2 CONC e Mesnil.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Task Force from CCB which we were following pushed on to the Marn
2 CONC e River and found that the bridge on Highway GCA at Mareuil was out. T
2 CONC his force pushed their infantry on across the river as ordered and est
2 CONC ablished a bridgehead. This was accomplished by 2200, on August 28, 19
2 CONC 44. The Wemple Force less Company A of the 38th Armored Infantry remai
2 CONC ned in the assembly area near Le Mesnil during the night of the 28th a
2 CONC nd 29th August, 1944 and until 1245 on 29 August, 1944. Task Force Wem
2 CONC ple under orders from higher Headquarters, pulled the Infantry back ac
2 CONC ross the Marne River and at 1245 on 29 August, 1944, followed behind t
2 CONC he Task Force from CCB to Epernay along highway GC 39 and 36 through M
2 CONC oussy, Pierry, Nnteuil, -le-F, Sermiord, Rilly, Mailly-Chaupagne, Verz
2 CONC y, Thuisy, to Pont-Faverger. Task Force Wemple reached this point at 2
2 CONC 130 and the Force halted for re-fueling. Since the force that precede
2 CONC d us was practically out of fuel, we gave part of our fuel to them.
2 CONT 
2 CONT (Page 7)
2 CONT During that halt for fuel a German column of a few trucks ran into ou
2 CONC r column and the 38th Infantry killed several Germans and took some pr
2 CONC isoners. At 0130, 30 August, 1944 the march was resumed.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At 0830, 30 August 1944 Task Force Wemple reached Perthes. One mile we
2 CONC st of Tagnon on road to Avancon at 0900 our leading elements encounter
2 CONC ed one enemy tank and some dismounted troops. The tank was fired on an
2 CONC d hit, but it did not stop. Two German officers and 63 men were take
2 CONC n prisoners at this point. The men fired on our units, but did not pu
2 CONC t up much of a fight. The prisoners all belonged to a German Police un
2 CONC it. An enemy column was fired on by our tanks near the town of Tagno
2 CONC n and several vehicles were knocked out. The number was not verified f
2 CONC or we had to keep moving.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Task Force went into an assembly area in the vicinity of Avancon a
2 CONC t 1100 on 30 August 1944. At this point (we) were ordered to pull bac
2 CONC k to an assembly area in the vicinity of Epaye and this move was start
2 CONC ed at 1715 by the route of Newflize, Alincourt, Junivell, La Newville
2 CONC , Font-Faverger, Epaye and closed in assembly at 2030. During the prec
2 CONC eding night the two Bn. Hq. tanks had dropped out of the column and w
2 CONC e feared that the crews had been captured, but they were picked up an
2 CONC d returned to the assembly area at Epaye. However, one of the tanks wa
2 CONC s fired on and hit by enemy tank (fire) and (the enemy fire) destroye
2 CONC d the gun on our tank. The crew escaped uninjured.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Task Force remained in the assembly area at Epaye until 1415 on 3
2 CONC 1 August, 1944 at which time the force was moved out in the same rout
2 CONC e - Epaye, Beine, Nauroy, Moronvilliers, St. Martin, St Souplet, St. M
2 CONC arie - with the mission of going through Verdun and establishing a bri
2 CONC dgehead on the other side of town. The Division was to advance on or a
2 CONC ttack in three forces along three routes, CCB along Z route on north
2 CONC , CCA along X route on south route, and CCR along Y route or middle ro
2 CONC ute.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Task Force Rankin was to precede Task Force Wemple along route indicat
2 CONC ed above and that is exactly how the march was made. After reaching St
2 CONC . Marie, the Force continued to Souain, Massiges, Vell sur Tourbe, Thi
2 CONC erville, and Verdun. (The Task Forces) Reached Verdun at 0800 after a
2 CONC n all night move and went went on to an assembly area at Etain closin

2 CONT Page 68
2 CONT On the same day (October 3, 1944), the Shermans and infantry of CCR we
2 CONC nt into action, Task Force I under Colonel Wemple and Task Force II un
2 CONC der Major Fuller were to attack Overloon from the north. But in this s
2 CONC ector the well dug-in Germans and their concealed anti-tank guns, Nebe
2 CONC lwerfer and mortars inflicted heavy losses to Wemple's two tank squadr
2 CONC ons. Moreover, the attackers ran into minefields. That night they ha
2 CONC d not advanced a single yard beyond their original positions. Task For
2 CONC ce II was halted by German fire within 500 yards of Overloon in what w
2 CONC as to be referred to later as the boot-shaped wood because of its sh
2 CONC ape on the staff map. It all looked like a reversion to the First Worl
2 CONC d War. The After Action Report stated: Entrenched positions changed h
2 CONC ands in bitter hand-to-hand fighting; bayonet and hand grenade were th
2 CONC e weapons of those days. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT On October 4, Wemple's Task Force tried its luck in a night attack b
2 CONC y infantry with sappers, in an effort to blaze a trail through the min
2 CONC efields so that tanks might follow through. The first part of the assi
2 CONC gnment met with success, but when the tanks probed their way forward i
2 CONC n the darkness, German resistance was found to be as strong as before
2 CONC . Neither the tanks, nor the infantry, which suffered heavy losses, ga
2 CONC ined any ground. The same day, more German counterattacks were launche
2 CONC d - seven in all. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Heinz Weber took part in one of them. At five o'clock in the morning t
2 CONC hey had to move forward, their captain commanding them to shout Hurra
2 CONC h. This shouting served them probably as a substitute for heavy weapo
2 CONC ns, Weber cynically observed. At battalion strength they dashed for th
2 CONC e edge of the wood, where, instead of infantry, they found tanks waiti
2 CONC ng for them. The tanks hunted the Germans down and early in the aftern
2 CONC oon the majority of them had been killed: Among them, the captain wh
2 CONC o had made us shout 'hurrah' had received a one-way ticket to hell. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT As a matter of fact, it was not only the tanks that halted the Germa
2 CONC n counterattacks. The three artillery battalions, each with eighteen 1
2 CONC 05 mm howitzers mounted on tank chassis, inflicted heavy losses on th
2 CONC e Germans. On October 4 alone, one of the battalions fired 2,762 round
2 CONC s. A field artillery battalion with eighteen 4.5-inch guns, attached t
2 CONC o the Division for the whole autumn, also took part in the action.

2 CONT On October 5, Wemple made a desperate effort to outflank Overloon fro
2 CONC m the east. Here the ground was more open, with meadows and hedgerow
2 CONC s on each side. One of his tank squadrons was to lead the attack wit
2 CONC h eighteen Shermans, the other squadron was to follow. Again opportuni
2 CONC ties for deployment were Iimited and the attack had to be launched i
2 CONC n columns. Yet it looked as if the plan might succeed. The enemy's for
2 CONC ward positions were overrun and the tanks advanced nearly a mile. But
2 CONC , hidden from the Americans, the Luftwaffe Festungs-Battalion X had ta
2 CONC ken up positions in the garden of a small castle called De Hattert,
2 CONC  just north of the road from Overloon to Vierlingsbeek. It had one o
2 CONC f the most feared anti-tank weapons at its disposal, the notorious 8
2 CONC 8 mm gun. Within a few seconds, thirteen to eighteen tanks were blazin
2 CONC g in the fields. If only General Hasbrouck had sent out patrols before
2 CONC ! 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple immediately asked for air support in order to get beyond the en
2 CONC emy's positions near De Hattert. Fighter bombers made an attack wit
2 CONC h rockets, reducing the castle to a smoldering pile of rubble. But th
2 CONC e air attack did not affect the outcome of the battle. The tank crew
2 CONC s who survived the murderous fire were literally forced to crawl bac
2 CONC k to their own lines. Others waited for darkness in order to make a ge
2 CONC taway, and some of them were taken prisoner. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Despite all these setbacks, the BBC and the press, ironically enough
2 CONC , reported that night: Overloon taken. There could be no sadder refu
2 CONC tation of this premature news item than the burnt-out hulls of the Ame
2 CONC rican tanks near De Hattert. Heinz Weber knew better. He saw the She
2 CONC rmans brew up in front of him. One exploded just after the crew had ba
2 CONC iled out. Weber covered another tank with his Schmeisser. At first th
2 CONC e crew were not keen to abandon the tank - they expected that Weber wo
2 CONC uld shoot them - but soon they were forced to crawl out of it in orde
2 CONC r to save their skins. Weber shouted: Come on, hurry up! Throw your w
2 CONC eapons and hand grenades behind you - off you go! The Americans appar
2 CONC ently understood him and did as they were told. Weber let them keep th
2 CONC eir watches and other personal belongings.  . . .

2 CONT Not only near Meyel and Neerkant, but also east of LiesseI, heavy Germ
2 CONC an armor had crossed the canal. This at least was what the com-mande
2 CONC r of Combat Command R was told. His unit was largely held in reserve b
2 CONC ehind the front. He dispatched a small force to find out what was goin
2 CONC g on, a task force made up of two squadrons of Sherman tanks, one infa
2 CONC ntry company, and a few smaller units, placed under the command of Lt
2 CONC . Colonel John P. Wemple. Task Force Wemple. received orders to thro
2 CONC w the Germans back over the canal east of Liessel. As Wemple approache
2 CONC d the battle area, he was told by men of the 87th Reconnaissance Squad
2 CONC ron how the enemy had attacked on a broad front from Meyel to Liessel
2 CONC . Rolling up German bridgeheads was totally out of the question! Commi
2 CONC tting forces to do so was even regarded as undesirable. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT It was obvious that the German attack was on a much larger scale and o
2 CONC n a broader front than appreciatcd by the gentlcmcn at HQ in the rear
2 CONC . Wemple had the guts to ignore the orders given him. He realized tha
2 CONC t in this sector it was imperative to hold the road from Mcyel to Lies
2 CONC sel, so he decided to distribute his forces at three positions on tha
2 CONC t road, more or less equally spaced over the entire distance from on
2 CONC e town to the other. One of the positions he chose was near the poin
2 CONC t where the Kanaalstreet, the road from Hogebrug on the Deume Canal t
2 CONC o Liessel, joined the road from Meyel. Wemple establish(ed) his comman
2 CONC d post in Neerkant. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT This was a wise decision. But it did not alter the fact that a seriou
2 CONC s situation was developing for the Americans. Just how serious they di
2 CONC d not yet know by midday. It was still possible for the attack to b
2 CONC e a local maneuver by the Germans on a fairly large scale. The America
2 CONC ns were unaware that two German divisions were involved. The Germans a
2 CONC ttacked in three phases: first, with the infantry of the 9th Panzer Di
2 CONC vision, who made it possible for bridges to be laid over the canal wit
2 CONC hout being hampered; then, by tanks, using three bridges; and finally
2 CONC , but not until the afternoon, by the infantry of the 15th Panzer- gre
2 CONC nadier Division, which had a small number of tanks. The Fallschirmjage
2 CONC r units, on the whole, did not stay east of the canals, but were als
2 CONC o used piecemeal in the offensive of 47th Corps. Units from Battalio
2 CONC n Paul, temporarily attached to Fallschirmjager Regiment Hubner afte
2 CONC r the bloody battles of Overloon, were committed on the less importan
2 CONC t front near Ospel and Waatskamp. Other units of the regiment, roughl
2 CONC y the strength of a company, joined in the fight for Meyel, and late
2 CONC r an entire battalion was to cover the German withdrawal near Liessel
2 CONC . These German paratroops played a subordinate role, however; everythi
2 CONC ng depended on the motorized and armored units. The 9th Panzer Divisio
2 CONC n acted with the familiar German Schneid, quickly and vigorously, alth
2 CONC ough not everything went smoothly. The Americans defended themselves f
2 CONC erociously, and the number of German casualties was large. Because o
2 CONC f their numerical superiority this did not seem to matter too much a
2 CONC t this time, but eventually- the Germans were fully aware of this - th
2 CONC ey would not be able to replace their losses as the Allies could. Apar
2 CONC t from this, a few serious mistakes were made by the Germans. The atta
2 CONC ck had been preceded by a heavy artillery bombardment, primarily direc
2 CONC ted at those woods where the Germans had wrongly assumed the American
2 CONC s to be hiding. The large number of German casualties was due mainly t
2 CONC o the reckless manner in which they launched their attacks, inadequate
2 CONC ly supported by heavy weapons. The Panzer Aufklarungs Abteilung 9 (Arm
2 CONC ored Reconnaissance Unit) of the Division under Lt. Colonel Bockhoff w
2 CONC as operating near Meyel, while near Neerkant Panzer Regiment 10 unde
2 CONC r Lt. Colonel Reich was fighting, but these were the only important as
2 CONC sault forces the 9th Panzer could muster. Panzer Regiment 11 had not s
2 CONC hown up at all! In the evening its commander was replaced by the dynam
2 CONC ic Bockhoff, and the units of this regiment were wedged in between th
2 CONC e two other assault groups. But by then the (page 135 follows) damag
2 CONC e had already been done. If the Germans had committed all their force
2 CONC s simultaneously in the morning, their success would have been even gr
2 CONC eater. This was not only a matter of the missing Panzer Regiment 11 bu
2 CONC t also of the 15th Panzergrenadier Division, which was supposed to hav
2 CONC e crossed the canal half a day earlier, and should have done so. The G
2 CONC ermans realized this only much later. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Toward noon they began to notice a stiffening of the American resistan
2 CONC ce. The fog had lifted and the Allied air force joined in the battle
2 CONC . The Germans no longer had to cope solely with the weak, dispersed tr
2 CONC oops of the 87th Reconnaissance Squadron. West of Meyel, where Lt. Col
2 CONC onel Boylan had made his unsuccessful counterattacks, Combat Comman
2 CONC d R under Colonel Chappuis was now defending the road to Asten. On th
2 CONC e road to Liessel the Germans ran into Task Force Wemple. Admittedly i
2 CONC t was not a strong force, and Wemple still had plenty of reasons to b
2 CONC e worried. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Earlier, three German tanks (always referred to as Tigers by the Allie
2 CONC s, but probably Panthers) had approached the junction where the Kanaal
2 CONC street merges with the road from Meyel to Liessel. An American armore
2 CONC d car, well hidden behind a haystack, let the first German tank pass
2 CONC , and then fired six shells in rapid succession from its 37 mm gun a
2 CONC t a distance of 15 yards at the rear of the tank. Crippled by this fir
2 CONC e from such a short distance, the tank landed in a ditch and the cre
2 CONC w hastily abandoned it and scurried for cover. The two remaining tank
2 CONC s swung back menacingly toward the American armored car, which wisel
2 CONC y turned tail. Later, the Americans dispatched three tank destroyers a
2 CONC nd a Sherman to deal with the Germans; all four were lost. Wemple real
2 CONC ized that it would be very hard for him to cope with an- other Germa
2 CONC n attack. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT It would be outrageous if the compiler left the reader not knowing ho
2 CONC w this battle came out. The following excerpt from an article by Alber
2 CONC t van der Heide came from website http://www.godutch.com/iwindmill/iww
2 CONC 2/941107.htm and is added for the reader's information: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Just over fifty years ago, two Dutch villages were virtually destroye
2 CONC d during a long, hard-fought battle, involving a German division wit
2 CONC h the newest Panther equipped tanks, the 7th American Armored Divisio
2 CONC n and the 11th British Armored Division. The Allies defeated the enem
2 CONC y after two weeks of shelling, resulting in a man-to-man mop-up operat
2 CONC ion. Historians label it 'the Battle in the Shadow' (of Operation Mark
2 CONC et Garden), the local population still refers to it as 'the Forgotte
2 CONC n Battle' since most Dutch people knew little about it until the liber
2 CONC ation was complete. The 'Battle of Overloon' was the first and only ta
2 CONC nk battle ever to have taken place in the Netherlands. A battle whic
2 CONC h exacted a heavy toll among Allied soldiers who already had survive
2 CONC d campaigns in Italy and Normandy.

1 SOUR E-mail from Annie Laurie Lanier Samuels to David Wemple dated 12/1/2002.
1 NOTE The following is from an e-mail written to the compiler on December 1
2 CONC , 2002 by Annie Laurie Lanier Samuels about her step-father, William G
2 CONC oss Wemple and his family: 
2 CONT 
2 CONT My step-father (whom I loved sincerely, by the way) was also cotton pl
2 CONC anter. He bought the plantations that Mr. B.Y. (Barney Yates Wemple) l
2 CONC ost at sheriff sale and farmed them until he retired. His golfing budd
2 CONC ies referred to him as the last of the gentlemen farmers referring t
2 CONC o the fact that he was accustomed to farming with a lot of labor (shar
2 CONC ecrop families that lived on the place) and accustomed to being waite
2 CONC d on a lot. The man who bought the plantation from him then farmed th
2 CONC e same acreage with air-conditioned cab tractors, one grown son and on
2 CONC e hired man. Definitely showing a sign of the times. At one point, Bil
2 CONC l had 40 field hands working and extra help during time for chopping c
2 CONC otton and picking cotton. There were fewer hands in the later years an
2 CONC d he did move on to mechanical cotton pickers although he never approv
2 CONC ed of the fact that the pickers left so much lint in the fields. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  When Mr. By and Leonidas farmed together (it was called Sunrise Plant
2 CONC ation), they had a commissary on the place, a post office, and they pa
2 CONC id their hand in script which was not uncommon then. Every now and t
2 CONC hen some of the plantation coins surface but I ve never seen any fro
2 CONC m Sunrise although Bill did refer to them occasionally. They were rede
2 CONC emable for U.S. legal tender at the commissary. Bill didn t use scrip
2 CONC t but he did pay off those who chopped cotton and picked cotton in sil
2 CONC ver dollars because they were easier to count. The local bank placed s
2 CONC pecial orders with the mint during those seasons to accommodate his ne
2 CONC eds. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT  There were a large number of Wemples around Mansfield (DeSoto Parish
2 CONC ) LA and Bossier Parish, LA. J.D. Wemple, a surveyor did the origina
2 CONC l survey for the town in 1849.

2 CONT 
2 CONT Ms. Vi Fallone, Montgomery County Historian, told me that Mr. Willia
2 CONC m Barent Wemple, Sr. spent 30 years compiling his genealogy.  He was o
2 CONC wner and publisher of the Mohawk Valley Democrat newspaper; that he di
2 CONC ed rather young (in his fifties); left the newspaper to his son, Wm. B
2 CONC arent Wemple Jr., who died 8 or 9 years ago.  The newspaper is no long
2 CONC er in business.

2 CONT 
2 CONT The following is from an unpublished manuscript, written by William Ba
2 CONC rent Wemple II,  compiler of the first part of this genealogy from 188
2 CONC 5-1913, sent to the compiler on September 28, 2000 by Michael Lee Wemp
2 CONC le of Bay City, MI.
2 CONT 
2 CONT William Barent Wemple was born in Fultonville, Montgomery County in Ne
2 CONC w York, on the 29th day of September 1866. He attended the public scho
2 CONC ols in that place until March, 1881, when he entered Clinton Liberal I
2 CONC nstitute, in Fort Plain, NY, and pursued an academic course until June
2 CONC , 1883. In September, 1883, he entered Union College, with the intenti
2 CONC on of taking a four year scientific course but just then the college w
2 CONC as passing through a very critical period in its existence, and he dee
2 CONC med it for his best interests to leave, more especially as his predile
2 CONC ction was from mingling with the commercial world and facing life's st
2 CONC ern realities in the shape of earning his own livelihood, which he ver
2 CONC y early manifested a desire to do. He consequently decided in March, 1
2 CONC 884, to accept a clerical position in the office of Wm. B. Wemple's So
2 CONC ns, who were continuing in the conduct of the foundry business in Fult
2 CONC onville, NY, which had been established and most successfully carrie
2 CONC d on by the grandfather of the subject of this sketch. He was in charg
2 CONC e of the general office, with this firm, for over seven years. In Dece
2 CONC mber, 1891, he severed his connection with them to accept the very res
2 CONC ponsible position of auditor in the office of (text missing)  . . .  d
2 CONC uties  . . .  satisfaction  . . .  himself. By reason of his position
2 CONC , it was necessary for him to pass upon and audit bills against the St
2 CONC ate amounting to several millions of dollars each year.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In January of, 1898, he was chosen as Superintendent of the Albany Hos
2 CONC pital, by its Board of Governors and was, therefore, obliged to resig
2 CONC n his position with the State, much to the regret of the Comptroller
2 CONC . The hospital authorities erected a beautiful new plant of eight deta
2 CONC ched and spacious buildings, connected by corridors, in the south-west
2 CONC ern part of the city, in 1898, and he was the first superintendent o
2 CONC f the new hospital.
2 CONT 
2 CONT While in Clinton Liberal Institute he associated himself the the Wm. C
2 CONC ullen Bryant debating society; in Union College he became a member o
2 CONC f the Sigma Phi fraternity and afterwards a member of the Sigma Phi co
2 CONC rporation and Union College Alumni association.
2 CONT 
2 CONT As soon as he attained his majority, he made application to the Fulton
2 CONC ville Lodge No. 531, for the first three degrees in Freemasonry, whic
2 CONC h body elected him on November 16, 1887 and conferred the third of Mas
2 CONC ter Mason degree upon him January 8, 1888. From here he passed rapidl
2 CONC y on up through the higher orders of Masonry and belongs to Johnson Ch
2 CONC apter No. 78; De Witt Clinton Council No. 22; Holy Cross Commandery No
2 CONC . 51; Cypress Temple of the Mystic Shrine; Albany Sovereign Consistor
2 CONC y of the 32nd degree.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was elected Junior (test missing)  . . .  No. 531, F. & A. M. for t
2 CONC he years 1889 and 1890 and was elected to  Worshipful Master for 189
2 CONC 1 and 1892. He was unanimously re-elected for the next year but ownin
2 CONC g to his business being located in Albany, it was impossible for him t
2 CONC o devote the necessary time and attention, therefore he was obliged o
2 CONC t decline the honor. The last year he presided over the Lodge was th
2 CONC e most successful in its history and was made memorial by the immens
2 CONC e increase in membership and a great revival in interest in things Mas
2 CONC onic. It was a phenomenal year for the Lodge and will long be remember
2 CONC ed as the banner year. As a substantial token of their deep appreciati
2 CONC on for the hard work performed by their Master, they presented him wit
2 CONC h a beautiful gold Past Master's jewel. Just at this time it was full
2 CONC y understood that the Grand Master of Masons in the State of New Yor
2 CONC k had concluded to appoint him a Deputy Grand Master for the old fourt
2 CONC eenth Masonic district but his removal from the district on account o
2 CONC f business, prevented the accomplishment of a cherished wish. He was a
2 CONC ppointed Assistant Grand Lecturer, for the fourth judicial district i
2 CONC n 1892.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On June 15, 1892, he was married by the Reverand John A. De Baun, of F
2 CONC onda, NY, pastor of the Dutch Reformed Church, to Gertrude Lillian Ber
2 CONC ry, daughter of John Darius Berry and Lillian Gertrude Lipe; his wif
2 CONC e was born July 31, 1872 in (text missing) . . .  .

2 CONT CHARLES E. WEMPLE, from HISTORY OF WEST VIRGINIA: American Historica
2 CONC l Society, 1923 (v. 2, p. 417)
2 CONT 
2 CONT CHARLES EDWIN WEMPLE is secretary, treasurer and general manager of th
2 CONC e American Stone Company, whose general offices and business headquart
2 CONC ers are at Wheeling. This company has several factories in West Virgin
2 CONC ia and Ohio, manufacturing the grinding stones used in paper mill indu
2 CONC stries.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple was one of the original producers of the first successful p
2 CONC ulp stone producers in this country, and for fifteen years was manage
2 CONC r of a quarry in Ohio where was produced the only good pulp stone on t
2 CONC he Western hemisphere. The supply at that time was more or less limite
2 CONC d, making it necessary for the United States and Canada to look to Eng
2 CONC land for part of their supply. When the World war cut off the supply o
2 CONC f the English product, he immediately set out to find additional depos
2 CONC its of rock suitable for producing there large wood pulp grindstones
2 CONC , and it fell to the lot of West Virginia to become the second larges
2 CONC t producer of these stones in the United States, which under rapid dev
2 CONC elopment took first place the third year after Mr. Wemple started prod
2 CONC ucing stones in this state. The industry has grown rapidly, and is sti
2 CONC ll expanding in order to keep up with the needs of the paper mills i
2 CONC n this country, Canada, Mexico and Japan.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple comes of a family noted for mechanical and business abilit
2 CONC y and was born at Lockport, New York, October 23, 1878. His grandfathe
2 CONC r, Myndert Wemple, was born in Holland April 9, 1810, and as a young m

2 CONC re on November 4, 1885. In New York he married Miss Catherine McKinney
2 CONC , a native of Scotland, who died in Greenwich, Connecticut, June 30, 1
2 CONC 906.

2 CONC s of Lockport, graduating for high school in 1898. For three years fol
2 CONC lowing he was employed in the joint offices of the Lockport Pulp Compa
2 CONC ny and the Lockport Felt Company. Practically his entire business expe
2 CONC rience has been in some phase of the paper manufacturing industry. O
2 CONC n leaving Lockport he removed to New Philadelphia, Ohio and was with t
2 CONC he Tippecanoe Pulp and Grindstone Company until business was dissolve
2 CONC d in 1905. Subsequently he became secretary and manager of the Smallwo
2 CONC od Stone Company at Empire, Ohio, but in 1915 he removed to Mannington
2 CONC , West Virginia, and bought the stone properties of J.A. Connelly at L
2 CONC ittleton. With these properties he organized the American Stone Compan

1 NOTE The following was sent to the compiler by Sharon Wemple Stafford on Oc
2 CONC tober 24, 1997.  William Wallace Wemple, Sr. is Sharon's grandfather
2 CONC . Apparently her grandfather wrote a letter to his one-half forth cous
2 CONC in, once removed.  This cousin's name is William Wallace Wemple I, wh
2 CONC o lived in Schenectady, NY.  Note that both men are named William Wall
2 CONC ace Wemple.  The following letter was the response to the aforemention
2 CONC ed letter.
2 CONT 
2 CONT November 10, 1931
2 CONT 
2 CONT My dear Mr. Wemple:
2 CONT 
2 CONT Very naturally I was very much interested in your letter of recent dat
2 CONC e, first to learn that your name was the same as mine, and then to rec
2 CONC eive the genealogy of the Wemple family.  It seems most of it is the s
2 CONC ame as that which belongs to my family.  In fact, it looks as though w
2 CONC e all came from the same root at some time.  The Historical Society o
2 CONC f Schenectady County has a genealogy of the Wemple family but I have n
2 CONC ot had occasion to see it for a number of years.  I recall that ther
2 CONC e was a Myndert Wemple who was the first Justice of the Peace of Schen
2 CONC ectady and supposed to be one of our ancestors.  My grandfather was Ab
2 CONC raham Wemple, born May17, 1791.  My grandmother was Sophia Van Der Poo
2 CONC l Wemple, born March 20, 1797.  My father's name was James V. Wemple
2 CONC , born December 7, 1820, and he had four or five brothers, one of the
2 CONC m John A. Wemple, moved to Ligonier, Indiana, sometime in the sixties
2 CONC .  John A. Wemple had a son by the name of Abram Wemple, and Abram ha
2 CONC d two sons, Charles Wemple and Clarence Wemple, both residing at Ligon
2 CONC ier, Indiana.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I have inquired regarding Eleanor Veeder mentioned in your genealogy
2 CONC , but I have not been able to locate her definitely.  I have been info
2 CONC rmed there was such a lady living here but that she died many many yea
2 CONC rs ago. It is possible I may be able to find out just who she was
2 CONC .  I will endeavor to do so and let you know later.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There was an Edward Wemple, of Fultonville, near Fonda, N.Y., who wa
2 CONC s a Congressman, State Senator, and State Controller, at different tim
2 CONC es.
2 CONT 
2 CONT My father had six children of which I am the oldest living.  I was bor
2 CONC n January 19, 1862.  I have four children, the second oldest being nam
2 CONC ed after me and in partnership with me in the law business.  He also i
2 CONC s married and has one child by name William Wallace Wemple.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There is a large family of Wemples in this community, many distant rel
2 CONC atives and perhaps some that are not relatives.  It would be quite int
2 CONC eresting to check them all up in detail, which I would like to do bu
2 CONC t my time is so occupied at present that I feel it impossible to do s
2 CONC o just now.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Any further information regarding this matter I will cheerfully give a
2 CONC nd would be glad to hear from you again.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Sincerely,
2 CONT (Signed)
2 CONT W.W. Wemple
2 CONT 
2 CONT Compiler's Note:  The author of this letter was nearing the age of sev
2 CONC enty when he wrote this letter.  Within two years of writing this lett
2 CONC er, he had died. DRW

2 CONT He was born in Brooklyn, NY, April 27, 1856 and inherited his father'
2 CONC s trait in his love of study and remarkable memory. He also develope
2 CONC d considerable talent for painting and music, neither of which he ha
2 CONC d an opportunity ot cultivate, for, at his father's death, upon the ad
2 CONC vise of his uncles James and Evert, the contractors with the Singing S
2 CONC ewing Machine Company, he accepted a situation with them and was engag
2 CONC ed in the ornamentation department until at the earnest solicitation o
2 CONC f his mother, he entered upon the study of medicine in the New York Un
2 CONC iversity, and it may be here said that he seemed to have entered upo
2 CONC n the profession for which he was best fitted mentally. Life, throug
2 CONC h this method of investigation, presented a new phase and each new dis
2 CONC covery whether of accident or design, gave to this earnest disciple o
2 CONC f the healing art profound gratification. He continued his course at c
2 CONC ollege for three and a half years and graduated with high honors in Ju
2 CONC ne 1879. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT In July, 1879, he married Martha Louise Stuart, and in the following O
2 CONC ctober went West, locating in Rushmore, MN. The extreme rigor of tha
2 CONC t climate proved too severe for his sensitive organization and he wa
2 CONC s obliged to return East, where, upon the advise of his uncle C. Y. We
2 CONC mple, he settled in Haverstraw, NY, and soon acquired a large and lucr
2 CONC ative practice. He established a reputation for success which in man
2 CONC y cases were remarkable. He remained here until warned by failing heal
2 CONC th and upon the advice of his brother physicians, relinquished his pra
2 CONC ctice and in March 1883, went to Sioux Falls where, in the sunny and i
2 CONC nvigorating climate of South Dakota, hope for a while lent encourageme
2 CONC nt to returning health. Improvement was only temporary, for, as summe
2 CONC r passed, a severe laryngeal difficulty appeared and as colder weathe
2 CONC r approached dangerous complications set in which baffled the skill o
2 CONC f the best physicians and on the 17 of November 1883, death closed a l
2 CONC ife of great possibilities and success. He left a wife and two childre
2 CONC n. The son, a promising boy, is being educated in Trinity School, Ne
2 CONC w York City, ranks high in scholarship and has developed a fine talen

1 NOTE This letter was forwarded to me by Emmet Leroy Wemple III during the m
2 CONC onth of December, 1995.  Mrs Rucker is Mrs. George Armon Rucker of Sa
2 CONC n Jose, CA., Emmet Wemple's first cousin, once removed.  Her full maid
2 CONC en name is Ruby Gertrude Wemple, the daughter of Emerson Henry Wemple.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Chicago, Illinois, Dec. 30, 1937
2 CONT 
2 CONT Dear Mrs. Rucker:
2 CONT 
2 CONT I was glad to hear that the record reached you and that you found inte
2 CONC rest in it.  For many years a William Barent Wemple (now deceased) o
2 CONC f Fonda, N.Y. kept the family records.  It was an exceptionally thorou
2 CONC gh piece of work and accounts for members of the family throughout th
2 CONC e country.  As he devoted his time to this work just from the pleasur
2 CONC e and pride he found in it, it's existence is not known to many of th
2 CONC e family despite the fact that it was published in the records of th
2 CONC e New York Genealogical and Biographical Society.  It seemed regrettab
2 CONC le to me that so many members of the family were unaware of its existe
2 CONC nce, so for some years whenever I have come across a Wemple, I have fu
2 CONC rnished them with their direct line of descent through the family.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There was only one person of our name who came to America in Colonia
2 CONC l days and the family record traces us all back to him.  I have neve
2 CONC r come across a Wemple who was not accounted for in the record; that i
2 CONC s, with one exception,  Frederick Wilhelm Wemple, who was an ex-army o
2 CONC fficer from Bararia and who resided in Chicago for a short space of ti
2 CONC me.  I had intended to visit him, but put it off until too late, as h
2 CONC e passed away in the meantime.  I had intended to ask him about the We
2 CONC mples in Germany.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The name originated and is met with in very early records of South Ger
2 CONC many, principally in the ancient Duchy of Swabia.  About the middle o
2 CONC f the sixteenth century a great political and religious upheaval too
2 CONC k place there and upon its settlement, Swabia was partitioned betwee
2 CONC n Bavaria and Wurtenberg and Baden. I assume that some of the Wemple
2 CONC s left there for Holland and several generations later our founding an
2 CONC cestor, Jan Barentse Wemple, came to America from Holland.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I do not know if you are at all familiar with the history of the Mohaw
2 CONC k Valley, so I will give you a brief outline so far as the concerns ou
2 CONC r family.  As you will note from your record, a grandson of the immigr
2 CONC ant, Johannes Wemple built Fort Hunter in 1712.  He and four others to
2 CONC ok the contract in 1711.  This location is about 25 miles west of an
2 CONC d south of Schenectady.  They also built Fort Oswego.  A portion of th
2 CONC e land grant to Johannes remained in the family until recent years an
2 CONC d I visited that location as I am also a direct descendant of this Joh
2 CONC annes.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Also early in the 18th century a trader named Douw Fonda went up the v
2 CONC alley about twenty miles west of Schenectady and settled on the nort
2 CONC h bank of the Mohawk in the vicinity of a Mohawk Indian Village.  Thi
2 CONC s location was called Caughnawaga by the Indians.  The next white ma
2 CONC n to settle in this vicinity was another grandson of the immigrant
2 CONC , a Barent Wemple, who married Debora Wemple, a daughter of his cousi
2 CONC n Johannes of Fort Hunter.  A great grandson of the immigrant, Baren
2 CONC t Wemple, married Margaret Fonda, a daughter of Douw.  She was known a
2 CONC s Peggy Wemple.  She was a well-to-do widow at the time of the Revolut
2 CONC ionary War.  She operated a mill on Cayudetta Creek and also she owne
2 CONC d a tavern, both located at Caughnawaga.  She was given a prominent pa
2 CONC rt of Robert Chamers' book America.  In his story of the Mohawk, sh
2 CONC e spells her name Wymple, due to the fact that he pictures her as a ve
2 CONC ry young widow whereas she was at that time in her mid-forties.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In fact the early spring of 1780, a band of Indians and Tories under S
2 CONC ir John Johnson raided Caughnawaga and practically destroyed the villa
2 CONC ge. Old Douw Fonda was buried on his own land about 300 feet east of h
2 CONC is home and eventually Peggy Wemple, her brother, Major Jellis Fonda
2 CONC , my great-great grandfather, Andrew (Andries) Wemple, and his wife, R
2 CONC achel Fonda, and Andrew's brother, John, were also buried there.  Arou
2 CONC nd seventy years ago this land was purchased by the New York Central R
2 CONC ailroad and this burying ground was sadly neglected.  So in the late y
2 CONC ears, the remains of Douw Fonda and the Major were moved to the old Ca
2 CONC ughnawaga Cemetery about two miles west of Fonda (formerly Caughnawaga
2 CONC ).  Last year I had the remains of Andrew, Rachel, and John moved to t
2 CONC his same plot in Evergreen.  There are about fifty Wemples buried ther
2 CONC e.
2 CONT 
2 CONT My grandfather, Leonard C. Wemple, was born in Fonda and came to Chica
2 CONC go in 1848.  I am a native of Chicago.  For many years I heard him men
2 CONC tion Fonda, so in 1935, Mrs. Wemple, our three sons and I drove down t
2 CONC here. We found a great many Wemples there and had such a pleasant tim
2 CONC e that we were back there in 1936 and 1937.  They have a family reunio
2 CONC n which is always held on the second Saturday of August each year at P
2 CONC ine Lake, Fulton County.
2 CONT 
2 CONT You and I have the same line of ancestors until we come down to and in
2 CONC cluding #24, Andrew Wemple.  Of his children you follow #52, Hendric
2 CONC k Wemple, and I follow #61 Andrew (Andries) Wemple.  I have taken quit
2 CONC e a few pictures and when I locate my films I will have some reprint
2 CONC s made and send you pictures of Peggy Wemple's tavern together with it
2 CONC s historical marker; her grave, Andrew's and Rachel's graves and othe
2 CONC r historical buildings and places.  If I get East next summer, I wil
2 CONC l see if I can locate your great grandfather's (Hendrick's) grave an
2 CONC d take a picture of it for you.  I would be interested in locating i
2 CONC t as he was a brother of Andrew (Andries).
2 CONT 
2 CONT To give you a more adequate idea of what our early ancestors went thro
2 CONC ugh in the Valley, I refer you to Walter Edmund's Drums Along the Moh
2 CONC awk and Robert Chamber's America and Cardigan.  Should you find t
2 CONC ime to read these books, you will see such names as Col. John Butler a
2 CONC nd his son, Walter.  One of our family, Marite Wemple, was married t
2 CONC o a Walter Butler, and a brother of Col. John.  Also, such names as Si
2 CONC r William Johnson of Johnstown, N.Y., and his home, Johnson Hall, hi
2 CONC s son Sir John Johnson and his sons-in-law, Col. Claus and Col. Guy Jo
2 CONC hnson.  I will send you pictures of Johnson Hall and the Butler home (
2 CONC Butlerbury).
2 CONT 
2 CONT In colonial days the Wemples took a leading part in the Valley and i
2 CONC n many instances served in various capacities in the Colonial Militia
2 CONC . When the Revolutionary War broke out, thirty-six of them were on th
2 CONC e muster rolls of Old Tryon County and Albany County Militia, rangin
2 CONC g in the rank from a Col. Abraham Wemple, down through majors, captain
2 CONC s, lieutenants, etc.  The family was divided on the political issues o
2 CONC f the day as was nearly every other large family in the Valley and ou
2 CONC r direct ancestor, Captain Andrew Wemple, whose paternal aunt, Marit
2 CONC e Wemple, was married to one of the Butlers, became a Loyalist, as yo
2 CONC u note from the record.  His wife and children refused to leave Caughn
2 CONC awaga and they never saw or heard of him again, other than that he ha
2 CONC d become a lieutenant in Butler's Rangers.  My great-great grandfathe
2 CONC r had been baptized Andrew, but afterwards called himself Andries.  H
2 CONC e died in March 1813, while in army service during the War of 1812.
2 CONT 
2 CONT This has been quite a long narrative, but I thought I would like to gi
2 CONC ve you some idea of the early days of the family and the place of thei
2 CONC r origin
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wishing you the best of health and all good things to go with it.  I a
2 CONC m
2 CONT 
2 CONT Respectfully yours,

2 CONT From a letter received From Daniel S. Wemple dated December 30, 1995:
2 CONT 
2 CONT The next time you write to me, David, tell me something about yourself
2 CONC . I'll do the same here and now.  My dad started out on a farm outsid
2 CONC e of Fergus Falls, Minnesota but couldn't make a go during the depress
2 CONC ion so moved the six of us to town in 1933.  In 1937 we moved to Sant
2 CONC a Monica, California where Dad had a brother and Mom had three sisters
2 CONC .  I went into the army right out of high school and spent some time a
2 CONC ll over Europe.  I went back in during the Korean War, got out in 1953
2 CONC , married in 1954 and finally finished college in 1955.  Then I spen
2 CONC t most of my working career with Allstate and retired in 1985. In betw
2 CONC een we saw a daughter through college and law school and a son get hi
2 CONC s B.S. in computer science.  She works in the legal department of a ba
2 CONC nk, met her husband in law school and they have a son, 11, and a daugh
2 CONC ter, 7 and live in L.A. some 30 miles west of us.  My son works fo
2 CONC r a small computer software company and lives in Norco, 35 miles wes
2 CONC t of us.  His wife is a nurse and they have a seven month old son.  Ou
2 CONC r third is a Down's Syndrome child.  We had her at home for the firs
2 CONC t years and since 1981 she has been in a Lutheran home where she is do
2 CONC ing fine and we bring her home for the weekend once a month.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Bea was born on a farm in Ontario, Canada, came to the states in 195
2 CONC 2 and we met in a college class.  After retiring in 1985 we have trave
2 CONC led a lot.

1 NOTE Sent to the compiler by Demarest Bowers Morrow, Danville, CA, on 19 Oc
2 CONC tober 2004:  Memory of the Fergus Falls Tornado -(1918?) (as related t
2 CONC o me by my mother Frances Wemple (Bowers).  Frances and several friend
2 CONC s had been out for the afternoon. (I believe she said it was a Sunday.
2 CONC ) The sky began to be extremely ominous. The dark clouds took on a gre
2 CONC enish tint. The air smelled musty. The girls realized that a severe st
2 CONC orm was pending and decided to hurry home. Frances suggested that the
2 CONC y all go to her house on Summit Avenue, but the others felt they shoul
2 CONC d go to their own homes. Shortly after her arrival at her house, the s
2 CONC torm hit. Her dad, D.S. Wemple, was a large man, known for his unusua
2 CONC l strength. As the wind hit, he decided to step outside to size thing
2 CONC s up. He was blown to the ground and came crawling back to safety.  Wh
2 CONC en the storm had passed, everyone went out to survey the havoc. France
2 CONC s remembered being impressed by such sights as straw blown into the br
2 CONC ick of the nearby creamery, and of course, unbelievable damage to prop
2 CONC erty everywhere. The sad thing was that two of the friends with whom s
2 CONC he had spent the afternoon were killed in the storm.    **************
2 CONC **************  Related by Demarest Bowers Morrow, daughter of France
2 CONC s Wemple Bowers. Frances was born m Fergus Falls on February!!, 1904
2 CONC , and spent her childhood years there.

1 NOTE This paper was written by Carrie's daughter, Margaret, for a celebrati
2 CONC on of her 100th birthday and given to me by her granddaughter, Emily B
2 CONC arton Konu:
2 CONT 
2 CONT Albert and Elizabeth (Liz-bet) Kern of Allentown, Pennsylvania were an
2 CONC xiously awaiting the arrival of their third child.  They already had t
2 CONC wo healthy, nice boys and could scarcely believe their ears (July 20
2 CONC , 1871) when they heard the announcement It's a girl.  They named he
2 CONC r Carrie Blanche and in due time they had two more girls named Anna L
2 CONC . and Iva A.  Then a son, Lewis, followed in 1875 and another girl, Mi
2 CONC nnie, in 1877.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Near this time the father of this young family was forced to give up h
2 CONC is practice of dentistry due to a health condition, and take up an out
2 CONC -of-door occupation.  They left Pennsylvania on the train for the west
2 CONC .  After a sojourn in Missouri for three and a half years, during whic
2 CONC h another daughter, Clara, was born, they moved to a homestead in Nuck
2 CONC ols County, Nebraska which became their permanent home. The family add
2 CONC ed Minnie and Clara with an after thought, number nine arriving, a mos
2 CONC t Unwelcome thought to a teenage sister - He was really more welcome a
2 CONC s Bro Charles.
2 CONT 
2 CONT During the next few years, Carrie married, had a son Ralph, was widowe
2 CONC d and became certified to teach by her own determination and the kin
2 CONC d assistance of a friendly educator and his wife.  Her teaching caree
2 CONC r lasted 4 years and carried her afield where she met and was marrie
2 CONC d to a young New Yorker, Frank Wemple, who was fast to learn about thr
2 CONC eshing, harvesting, animal care and farming in general.  He never lear
2 CONC ned (even from his teacher wife) to say his r's in western fashion. Th
2 CONC ey lived in Kansas a short time and buried there their second child, A
2 CONC lbert Aaron, who died when he was 13 months old.  They (next) travele
2 CONC d by covered wagon across the wide Missouri River and to their homeste
2 CONC ad, which became the family farm of 640 acres and 140 acres of lease
2 CONC d hay land in Logan County, Nebraska.
2 CONT 
2 CONT While on this trip, the engagement-gift-sewing-machine had to be TOSSE
2 CONC D from the wagon 'till a fire could be extinguished - but did good ser
2 CONC vice for many years afterward sewing for four daughters (flour sack pa
2 CONC nties - 3 to 4 dress-up slips each, plus dresses and aprons galore.  M
2 CONC other's eyes were strained by sewing and always were her weakness; (sh
2 CONC e used) to rest them (as) she sat evenings in a room with no light an
2 CONC d rocked and knit sox stockings & things to the accompaniment of the s
2 CONC queak, squeak of the rocking chair.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ralph was married & went to a homestead of his own and Helen, a beauti
2 CONC ful, always smiling brunette with snappy dark eyes, passed away afte
2 CONC r her 10th birthday, December 1916.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The three room sod house with frame & an entry way became too crowde
2 CONC d with these sad memories and since no new frame home could be agree
2 CONC d upon - the farm was sold March 1917 and replaced by a small frame ho
2 CONC me in Logan adjacent to the new 2 room school & playground.  Anna wa
2 CONC s still in school and it was something new - to be at school in a fe
2 CONC w steps across the road rather than a 4 mile drive.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In due time Lucy, Alice, and Anna became school teachers.  Lucy taugh
2 CONC t 17 years (being company for her mother the last 6 or 7 years) and ma
2 CONC rried a bee keeper.  Alice taught 7 years, took nurses training and ma
2 CONC rried an M.D.  Anna finished H.S. and became ANN at the University o
2 CONC f Wyoming and taught 7 years before marrying Clyde, the son of a carpe
2 CONC nter who lived and worked in the Union Pacific mines at Hanna Wyoming
2 CONC .  Among the grandchildren are a granddaughter, great-granddaughter
2 CONC , a great-grandson & great-granddaughter in California, a grandson, th
2 CONC ree great-grandsons & a great-granddaughter in Texas, grandson Bill Ba
2 CONC rton & a great-granddaughter in Seattle, granddaughter Emily Konu an
2 CONC d 2 great-grandsons in Oroville, Washington on the Canadian border.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The girls teaching took them out of state & the Nebraska home was sol
2 CONC d & mother moved to Denver to be near her dad, 3 sisters and a brother
2 CONC . Mother was a cook and companion for several years to a semi-invali
2 CONC d with three grown sons.

2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple, who continues the tradition as publisher, has also been in
2 CONC creasingly active in the National Mohawk River Bank of Fonda. After so
2 CONC me years as vice-president and director, he was elected president of t

2 CONC rd of community service as a civic leader and public official and is n
2 CONC ow president of the Consolidated Health Board of the Village of Fond
2 CONC a and Town of Mohawk and president of the Board of Education of Fond
2 CONC a High School. He is a former member of the board of trustees and acti

2 CONT FONDA This year s high school graduation at the Fonda-Fultonville scho
2 CONC ol district will mark the start of a unique legacy left by a village c
2 CONC ouple known for hard work and community service. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT About a dozen students unlikely to afford college on their will have o
2 CONC pportunity to continue their studies with free tuition with a new scho
2 CONC larship named after its donors, William Barent Wemple and Elizabeth As
2 CONC hley Burton Wemple. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT School officials have said the gift of $1.83 million is remarkable i
2 CONC n its size alone. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Wemples stipulated in their will that the scholarship would be act
2 CONC ive once their heirs were dead; school officials learned about it las
2 CONC t fall following the death of the Wemples  son, Frank Wemple, in 2006
2 CONC . 
2 CONT 
2 CONT But some who knew the prominent, upper-class family are not surprise
2 CONC d that the donation, spelled out in the Wemples  last will and testame
2 CONC nt, went unheralded for more than 30 years. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Today, people seem to be more interested in saying they did something
2 CONC , said Rose Aversa, who grew up next door to the Wemples on Montgomer
2 CONC y Terrace in Fonda. The old way was you don t talk about what you do
2 CONC . You just do it. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Aversa, now 79, was one of many in the community who witnessed the gen
2 CONC erosity of Elizabeth Ashley Burton Wemple and the work ethic of her hu
2 CONC sband, W. Barent Wemple. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT She said W. Barent Wemple spent much of his time working, while his wi
2 CONC fe arranged household affairs and was constantly involved in communit
2 CONC y service work. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Many of Ashley Wemple s acts went unnoticed, Aversa said, except the f
2 CONC act that she allowed all the neighborhood children to play in their ya
2 CONC rd on Montgomery Terrace. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT She was really gracious, Aversa said.

2 CONT 
2 CONT W. Barent Wemple went to school at the Albany Boys Academy, lived in N

2 CONT 
2 CONT He served as secretary of the Mohawk-Glen Development Corp., which suc
2 CONC ceeded in getting the Keymark Corp. to locate in the village. Keymark
2 CONC , which manufactures extruded aluminum products, remains in Fonda toda

2 CONC e same street as the Wemples. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was always dressed well with a tie, he looked like a gentleman, F
2 CONC allone said. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT From descriptions from both Fallone and Aversa, it appears W. Barent W
2 CONC emple was what today would be called a workaholic and a fairly reserve
2 CONC d person. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT He actually was never a person to mingle too much. He was very much i
2 CONC nvolved with his newspaper and spent a good deal of time in his office
2 CONC , Fallone said. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT I think he was probably a little bit harder to know; he was probabl
2 CONC y not as outgoing as she, but both were a delight to have in the commu
2 CONC nity. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Innumerable Activities 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple s wife, Elizabeth Ashley Burton Wemple, was always doing somet
2 CONC hing for somebody, she was, Fallone said of her former neighbor. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ashley Burton Wemple, as she was known, was born on May 7, 1895. She a
2 CONC nd her parents, Frank and Emma McNab Burton, were descendants of the e
2 CONC arly European immigrants who became prominent in the leather tanning a
2 CONC nd glove-making business in Gloversville. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT She was born on the former McNab homestead on North McNab Avenue and W
2 CONC est Fulton Street. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT That land was later donated to the city of Gloversville by her parent
2 CONC s which now serves as the site of the McNab Elementary School, accordi
2 CONC ng to her obituary. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ashley Burton Wemple studied in Gloversville schools and went to hig
2 CONC h school at The Willard School in Berlin, Germany, later studying at S
2 CONC mith College in Massachusetts and then at the Presbyterian Hospital Sc
2 CONC hool of Nursing, where she became a registered nurse. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ashley Burton Wemple was a member of the Nathan Littauer Hospital s bo
2 CONC ard of trustees, commissioner of the Girl Scouts of Fulton County, pre
2 CONC sident of the Alliance Francaise and the Every Monday Club of Gloversv
2 CONC ille, according to her obituary. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Her activities, described as innumerable after she died, included me
2 CONC mbership on the boards of education of the Fonda School and later of t
2 CONC he Fonda-Fultonville school districts once they consolidated. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Her memberships included the PTA, the Caughnawaga Chapter of the Daugh
2 CONC ters of the American Revolution, the Century Club of Amsterdam, and th
2 CONC e Antlers Country Club. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ashley Burton Wemple also served as a trustee and secretary-treasure
2 CONC r of the Frothingham Free Library and as a member of the Mohawk Valle
2 CONC y Library Association, according to her obituary. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Married in 1930 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Elizabeth Ashley Burton and W. Barent Wemple were married on July 26
2 CONC , 1930. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT They had two children; one, William Jr., was struck and killed at ag
2 CONC e 8 by a sand truck on Park Street in the village. He was on the way t
2 CONC o third grade at the Fonda Elementary School, according to genealogica
2 CONC l materials. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Their son Frank, was born on Oct. 12, 1935, and attended Bard Colleg
2 CONC e and Columbia University. He worked with his father at the newspaper
2 CONC , according to his 2006 obituary. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Elizabeth Ashley Burton Wemple died at age 69 in November of 1964, 1
2 CONC 4 years before her husband, who died in August of 1978 at age 82. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Rose Aversa, who still lives in the home next door to the former Wempl
2 CONC e home, said she recalls W. Barent Wemple living alone after his wif
2 CONC e s death. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT After she died, he didn t do much. He gave up the paper and he just k
2 CONC ind of walked, Aversa said. He kept to himself. In fact, he kept th
2 CONC e light on at night -- he just kind of withdrew to himself. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Though gone for decades, the Burtons will be memorialized through thei
2 CONC r gift to students, which, though surprising to residents when announc
2 CONC ed, doesn t surprise people who knew them. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Fonda-Fultonville School District expects to distribute about 12 s
2 CONC cholarships of $7,000, the cost of tuition at Fulton-Montgomery Commun
2 CONC ity College. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The family left a request that the scholarships be distributed equall
2 CONC y among males and females and based on student financial need. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT The fund itself requires that at least 5 percent of its value go to Fo
2 CONC nda-Fultonville graduates pursuing higher education and, depending o
2 CONC n its management, could endure for decades, officials said.

2 CONT 
2 CONT The entire community was shocked and saddened by the tragic death of W
2 CONC illiam Barent Wemple, Jr., eight-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. Baren
2 CONC t Wemple, who was instantly killed about 8:45 Monday morning when he w
2 CONC as stuck by a sand truck while crossing from the north to the south si
2 CONC de of Park street and his way t the new Fonda Elementary School whic
2 CONC h he attended as a third grade student. Thinking that he might be lat
2 CONC e for school, because he had been delayed by waiting for a long freigh
2 CONC t train to pass the Center Street crossing, he was running across th
2 CONC e thoroughfare when he collided with the rear wheel of the huge vehicl
2 CONC e and was knocked to the pavement. He died from a fractured skull.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The truck which figured in the accident was owned by Arthur C. Cumming
2 CONC s of Middleburg. Operated by Leo Bouck, 24, it was conveying said fro
2 CONC m the Frederick sand pit at Gloversvile to Middleburg to be used in th
2 CONC e construction of a new post office. In proceeding ever Center and Par

2 CONC e point where the tragedy occurred to reach  the school which is locat
2 CONC ed on the south side of the highway.
2 CONT 
2 CONT By policing the Main and Center streets intersection, an action take
2 CONC n at the opening of the school year by the village Board of Trustees
2 CONC , the traffic hazard to children going to and from school was to a lar
2 CONC ge degree minimized. Little thought was given to traffic conditions ne
2 CONC ar the school owing to the fact that it was not generally known that d
2 CONC uring the past few months motor traffic had increased through this sec

2 CONT 
2 CONT Following an investigation by the sheriff's office and local state pol

2 CONC hool children. 
2 CONT

2 CONC n of Gloversville; an uncle, John M. Burton; an aunt; Miss Lilliam Bur
2 CONC ton and three cousins, all of Gloversville.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The simple funeral service which was held yesterday afternoon at 2:3
2 CONC 0 at the Wemple home on Montgomery Terrace centered around the thing
2 CONC s that Billy loved, the 19th and 23rd Psalms, which were recited to hi
2 CONC m nightly; a portion of Shelly's Ode to a Skylark; his favorite hymn
2 CONC , Abide With Me, played by Miss Dorothy Getman: and concluded with t

2 CONT MONSIGNOR LESTER A. WEMPLE
2 CONT by Paul Crunican
2 CONT 
2 CONT I remember him as an athlete. At the seminary, thirty years older tha
2 CONC n most of us, he could outrun us all. Each Saturday there was the slo
2 CONC w hike and the fast hike. Those brash enough to try  the latter usu
2 CONC ally ended up puffing along some distance behind Wempy. And we had s
2 CONC een or heard of his legendary ability to swim several miles out into L
2 CONC ake Huron just to keep in shape. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT I remember his saying Mass. Graduates of St. Peter's have a traditio
2 CONC n of celebrating the Eucharist with a devotion. For my generation. Fat
2 CONC her Wemple's personal example was one of the most important sources. H
2 CONC is pubic speaking voice was high pitched, and many of us had fun mimic
2 CONC king it, but it was impossible to miss the faith and love that went in
2 CONC to those sing-song phrases.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I remember his talks on sex. Again it was easy to make fun, as some o
2 CONC f the more memorable phases for the early days of Christ the King Coll
2 CONC ege attest. Some would have said he had a hang-up on the subject
2 CONC . I think he had a towering anger against any and all exploitation i
2 CONC n sex - or any other matter where people could and did take advantage.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Above all, I remember him a a truly gentle man and priest. Once, a
2 CONC s a student, I tried to repay him for taking me along to a conference
2 CONC . He refused my offer. He only said, When the time comes, you do th
2 CONC e same for someone else. Even those who became instant back-door gra
2 CONC duates of the King of some midnight misdemeanour, often became friend
2 CONC s again. You could get awfully angry with him over some impulsive acti
2 CONC on, but you couldn't stay mad long. His goodness was too transparent
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT One of the readings selected for his funeral mass was the all thing
2 CONC s to all men passage from the ninth chapter of 1st Corinthians. We mi
2 CONC ght have expected St. Paul to say For the weak I made myself strong.
2 CONC  Instead his works are For the weak I made myself weak. Somehow tha
2 CONC t phrase was the right one for Lester Wemple. You had a sense of a str
2 CONC ong, vulnerable man who was not afraid to take a chance, to risk every
2 CONC thing for his faith and hope in Jesus Christ. We pray for him and reme
2 CONC mber him with great affection.

1 NOTE Ella Kate Wemple Wilson, Myndert's fourth great-granddaughter, submitt
2 CONC ed this paper to the Schenectady County Historical Society.  It is tit
2 CONC led MYNDERT WEMPLE 1701-1738 and dated August 1, 1988 and was prepare
2 CONC d by Mrs. Ella-Kate Wemple Wilson:
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert Wemple was baptized in the Schenectady Reformed Church Novembe
2 CONC r 9, 1701, the first born son of Johannes Wemp and Catalina Schermerho
2 CONC rn. (1-1)  Both parents belonged to families with large landholdings a
2 CONC nd they held positions of influence in the community.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Three more children were born in the household and when Myndert was ab
2 CONC out age 7 his mother died.  In 1909 his father married again, to Ariaa
2 CONC ntje Swits. (2-1)
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert's grandfather, Reyer Schermerhorn, died February 1719 and bequ
2 CONC eathed farmland to the four children of Catalina, on the Seventh Fla
2 CONC t on the north side of the Mohawk River.  This land they held until 17
2 CONC 33. (3-1)
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert left home and went to Boston to work for his cousin, Jacob Wen
2 CONC dell.  Jacob was born in Albany in 1691 and moved to Boston where he b
2 CONC ecame a well known merchant and ship owner.  A nephew, John Wendell, b
2 CONC ecame associated with him in business. (4-1) In time, Jacob Wendell pr
2 CONC omoted Myndert Wemple to be the captain of his sloop Albany for trad
2 CONC ing along the eastern seaboard and Caribbean ports.  Boston newspaper
2 CONC s reported the arrivals dn departures of all trading vessels as show
2 CONC n on (the) enclosed page, and thus we have a list of Voges made.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Ben Franklin's PENNSYLVANIA GAZETTE reported a hurricane in the port o
2 CONC f Charleston, SC on August 27, 1730.  He lists eleven vessels in port
2 CONC ; he lists the the ships which were lost, and he lists others which ro
2 CONC de out the storm.  In the latter group was the Sloop Albany of Boston
2 CONC , Mindert Wemple, Master. (5-1)
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert was probably on his way to his wedding.  The entry in the Sain
2 CONC t Peters Parish Register of Talbot County, MD shows Captain Mangret Wi
2 CONC mple married Sarah Mills October 22, 1730.  One wonders if that was th
2 CONC e way he pronounced his name?  According to the same Parish Register
2 CONC , Sarah Mills was baptized there December, 1707, the daughter of Davi
2 CONC d and Mary Mills. (See enclosure)
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Captain took his bride to Boston to live and he continued his coas
2 CONC twise trading.  The Maryland Historical Society has the original recor
2 CONC d of the Port of Oxford on the eastern shore of Maryland showing tha
2 CONC t on December 13, 1731 Cap'n Mindert Wimple in the Sloop Albany, pai
2 CONC d the fees and duties of 19 pounds, 14 shillings and 8 Pense for his c
2 CONC argo of English goods, rum and Madera wine, and he left the port agai
2 CONC n on March 23. (See enclosure)
2 CONT 
2 CONT The master of a ship trading in the Chesapeake was obliged not only t
2 CONC o navigate his ship, but also to dispose of the cargo, purchase tobacc
2 CONC o and engage freight.  From activity of this sort it was a short ste
2 CONC p to settle down and become a merchant in his own right.
2 CONT 
2 CONT On October 21, 1735 Mindert Wymple, mariner, bought from Anthony Richa
2 CONC rdson, gent. of Talbot County for 60 pounds current money of Marylan
2 CONC d 250 acres of land in Dorchester County on the Great Choptank River
2 CONC . (1-2)  This was an excellent site for his purpose.  The Choptank wa
2 CONC s navigable from the Chesapeake Bay up to Cabin Creek, and the surroun
2 CONC ding farm lands were already cultivated for commercial production of t
2 CONC obacco.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Myndert died in March 1738.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The next record is an Inventory of the goods and chattels of Minder
2 CONC t Wimple, late of Dorchester County, Deceased, 8th day of November Ann
2 CONC o 1739 (1-3)
2 CONT 
2 CONT The inventory reflects a man who was well dressed, lived conformably
2 CONC , had settled down to become a merchant in his own right, and a plante
2 CONC r of tobacco and farm products like his neighbors.  He had 3 cows, a s
2 CONC mall bull and a heifer, 2 large oxen, 10 head sheep, 2 horses, 6 hea
2 CONC d hogs and 1 servant man called Thomas who had 1 year and 5 months t
2 CONC o serve.  The oddest thing was that the inventory contains 20 chairs
2 CONC .  He must have lived in a large house.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In Chancery Court a suit was filed: On November 22, 1739 came Jacob W
2 CONC endell, John Wendell and Edmund Quincy, of the New England Merchants o
2 CONC f Boston, who exhibited their suit against John Harris and Sarah his w
2 CONC ife. Sarah had remarried immediately! (2-3)
2 CONT 
2 CONT The suit brings out the story.  Before 1736 Mindert Wimple made voyage
2 CONC s to and from Boston, representing the New England merchants.  On eac
2 CONC h voyage from Boston before 1736 he used to bring a cargo of goods, an
2 CONC d the effects which such cargo purchased here to carry with him to Bos
2 CONC ton and there settle his accounts on the completion of each voyage.  A
2 CONC fter he moved to Maryland he continued to receive goods and effects, a
2 CONC s a factor, for sale.  He also had good from other persons in Boston a
2 CONC nd in his books little distinction was made.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The complainants alleged that Mindert owned them an unpaid balance amo
2 CONC unting to 5,000 pounds New England currency.  The defendants were sur
2 CONC e this couldn't be true, but they had trouble understanding the accoun
2 CONC ts. A commission was appointed by the court to make a study and they r
2 CONC esolved that the amount due to Jacob Wendell and company was 199 pound
2 CONC s.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From the Chancery Suit there are lists of goods which were traded, an
2 CONC d they are worth perusing.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From Boston, sent to Cap'n Wimple for sale in Maryland were fabrics su
2 CONC ch as Dowles, fine and course, Cambrics, Wide Garlic, Blew Calico, Cot
2 CONC ton Rabalais, and Rushis Linen.
2 CONT 
2 CONT And there are Oznabrigs, one time quoted in yards, one time in pounds
2 CONC , and one in half bushels. (1-4)
2 CONT 
2 CONT There were bricks, axes, pots and kettles, jugs and chamber pots.  The
2 CONC re was rum, wine, molasses, cheese, salt, pepper, ginger, allspice an
2 CONC d sugar.
2 CONT 
2 CONT From Maryland to Boston went wheat, corn, walnut timber, and pork.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Even in that day court action was not speedy.  The deliberations of th
2 CONC e court started in 1739, and the final decision was not reached unti
2 CONC l February, 1745.
2 CONT 
2 CONT What about the children of Myndert and Sarah?  According to The Wempl
2 CONC e Genealogy there were three boys and a girl who died young.  (2-4) T
2 CONC he boys were named Johannes, Myndert and Andrew.  When their grandfath
2 CONC er Johannes Wemple wrote his will in 1748 he named the two sons of m
2 CONC y deceased son Myndert - John and Myndert. (3-4)  What happened to An
2 CONC drew? I do not know.  According to tradition the boys left Maryland an
2 CONC d moved to the Schenectady area in 1759.  It was Myndert, son of Mind
2 CONC ert Wimple of Dorchester County, deceased who sold the 250 Maryland a
2 CONC cres in 1767.

1 NOTE This letter was forwarded to me by Emmet Leroy Wemple III during the m
2 CONC onth of December, 1995.  Mrs Rucker is Mrs. George Armon Rucker of Sa
2 CONC n Jose, CA., Emmet Wemple's first cousin, once removed.  Her full maid
2 CONC en name is Ruby Gertrude Wemple, the daughter of Emerson Henry Wemple.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Chicago, Illinois, Dec. 30, 1937
2 CONT 
2 CONT Dear Mrs. Rucker:
2 CONT 
2 CONT I was glad to hear that the record reached you and that you found inte
2 CONC rest in it.  For many years a William Barent Wemple (now deceased) o
2 CONC f Fonda, N.Y. kept the family records.  It was an exceptionally thorou
2 CONC gh piece of work and accounts for members of the family throughout th
2 CONC e country.  As he devoted his time to this work just from the pleasur
2 CONC e and pride he found in it, it's existence is not known to many of th
2 CONC e family despite the fact that it was published in the records of th
2 CONC e New York Genealogical and Biographical Society.  It seemed regrettab
2 CONC le to me that so many members of the family were unaware of its existe
2 CONC nce, so for some years whenever I have come across a Wemple, I have fu
2 CONC rnished them with their direct line of descent through the family.
2 CONT 
2 CONT There was only one person of our name who came to America in Colonia
2 CONC l days and the family record traces us all back to him.  I have neve
2 CONC r come across a Wemple who was not accounted for in the record; that i
2 CONC s, with one exception,  Frederick Wilhelm Wemple, who was an ex-army o
2 CONC fficer from Bararia and who resided in Chicago for a short space of ti
2 CONC me.  I had intended to visit him, but put it off until too late, as h
2 CONC e passed away in the meantime.  I had intended to ask him about the We
2 CONC mples in Germany.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The name originated and is met with in very early records of South Ger
2 CONC many, principally in the ancient Duchy of Swabia.  About the middle o
2 CONC f the sixteenth century a great political and religious upheaval too
2 CONC k place there and upon its settlement, Swabia was partitioned betwee
2 CONC n Bavaria and Wurtenberg and Baden. I assume that some of the Wemple
2 CONC s left there for Holland and several generations later our founding an
2 CONC cestor, Jan Barentse Wemple, came to America from Holland.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I do not know if you are at all familiar with the history of the Mohaw
2 CONC k Valley, so I will give you a brief outline so far as the concerns ou
2 CONC r family.  As you will note from your record, a grandson of the immigr
2 CONC ant, Johannes Wemple built Fort Hunter in 1712.  He and four others to
2 CONC ok the contract in 1711.  This location is about 25 miles west of an
2 CONC d south of Schenectady.  They also built Fort Oswego.  A portion of th
2 CONC e land grant to Johannes remained in the family until recent years an
2 CONC d I visited that location as I am also a direct descendant of this Joh
2 CONC annes.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Also early in the 18th century a trader named Douw Fonda went up the v
2 CONC alley about twenty miles west of Schenectady and settled on the nort
2 CONC h bank of the Mohawk in the vicinity of a Mohawk Indian Village.  Thi
2 CONC s location was called Caughnawaga by the Indians.  The next white ma
2 CONC n to settle in this vicinity was another grandson of the immigrant
2 CONC , a Barent Wemple, who married Debora Wemple, a daughter of his cousi
2 CONC n Johannes of Fort Hunter.  A great grandson of the immigrant, Baren
2 CONC t Wemple, married Margaret Fonda, a daughter of Douw.  She was known a
2 CONC s Peggy Wemple.  She was a well-to-do widow at the time of the Revolut
2 CONC ionary War.  She operated a mill on Cayudetta Creek and also she owne
2 CONC d a tavern, both located at Caughnawaga.  She was given a prominent pa
2 CONC rt of Robert Chamers' book America.  In his story of the Mohawk, sh
2 CONC e spells her name Wymple, due to the fact that he pictures her as a ve
2 CONC ry young widow whereas she was at that time in her mid-forties.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In fact the early spring of 1780, a band of Indians and Tories under S
2 CONC ir John Johnson raided Caughnawaga and practically destroyed the villa
2 CONC ge. Old Douw Fonda was buried on his own land about 300 feet east of h
2 CONC is home and eventually Peggy Wemple, her brother, Major Jellis Fonda
2 CONC , my great-great grandfather, Andrew (Andries) Wemple, and his wife, R
2 CONC achel Fonda, and Andrew's brother, John, were also buried there.  Arou
2 CONC nd seventy years ago this land was purchased by the New York Central R
2 CONC ailroad and this burying ground was sadly neglected.  So in the late y
2 CONC ears, the remains of Douw Fonda and the Major were moved to the old Ca
2 CONC ughnawaga Cemetery about two miles west of Fonda (formerly Caughnawaga
2 CONC ).  Last year I had the remains of Andrew, Rachel, and John moved to t
2 CONC his same plot in Evergreen.  There are about fifty Wemples buried ther
2 CONC e.
2 CONT 
2 CONT My grandfather, Leonard C. Wemple, was born in Fonda and came to Chica
2 CONC go in 1848.  I am a native of Chicago.  For many years I heard him men
2 CONC tion Fonda, so in 1935, Mrs. Wemple, our three sons and I drove down t
2 CONC here. We found a great many Wemples there and had such a pleasant tim
2 CONC e that we were back there in 1936 and 1937.  They have a family reunio
2 CONC n which is always held on the second Saturday of August each year at P
2 CONC ine Lake, Fulton County.
2 CONT 
2 CONT You and I have the same line of ancestors until we come down to and in
2 CONC cluding #24, Andrew Wemple.  Of his children you follow #52, Hendric
2 CONC k Wemple, and I follow #61 Andrew (Andries) Wemple.  I have taken quit
2 CONC e a few pictures and when I locate my films I will have some reprint
2 CONC s made and send you pictures of Peggy Wemple's tavern together with it
2 CONC s historical marker; her grave, Andrew's and Rachel's graves and othe
2 CONC r historical buildings and places.  If I get East next summer, I wil
2 CONC l see if I can locate your great grandfather's (Hendrick's) grave an
2 CONC d take a picture of it for you.  I would be interested in locating i
2 CONC t as he was a brother of Andrew (Andries).
2 CONT 
2 CONT To give you a more adequate idea of what our early ancestors went thro
2 CONC ugh in the Valley, I refer you to Walter Edmund's Drums Along the Moh
2 CONC awk and Robert Chamber's America and Cardigan.  Should you find t
2 CONC ime to read these books, you will see such names as Col. John Butler a
2 CONC nd his son, Walter.  One of our family, Marite Wemple, was married t
2 CONC o a Walter Butler, and a brother of Col. John.  Also, such names as Si
2 CONC r William Johnson of Johnstown, N.Y., and his home, Johnson Hall, hi
2 CONC s son Sir John Johnson and his sons-in-law, Col. Claus and Col. Guy Jo
2 CONC hnson.  I will send you pictures of Johnson Hall and the Butler home (
2 CONC Butlerbury).
2 CONT 
2 CONT In colonial days the Wemples took a leading part in the Valley and i
2 CONC n many instances served in various capacities in the Colonial Militia
2 CONC . When the Revolutionary War broke out, thirty-six of them were on th
2 CONC e muster rolls of Old Tryon County and Albany County Militia, rangin
2 CONC g in the rank from a Col. Abraham Wemple, down through majors, captain
2 CONC s, lieutenants, etc.  The family was divided on the political issues o
2 CONC f the day as was nearly every other large family in the Valley and ou
2 CONC r direct ancestor, Captain Andrew Wemple, whose paternal aunt, Marit
2 CONC e Wemple, was married to one of the Butlers, became a Loyalist, as yo
2 CONC u note from the record.  His wife and children refused to leave Caughn
2 CONC awaga and they never saw or heard of him again, other than that he ha
2 CONC d become a lieutenant in Butler's Rangers.  My great-great grandfathe
2 CONC r had been baptized Andrew, but afterwards called himself Andries.  H
2 CONC e died in March 1813, while in army service during the War of 1812.
2 CONT 
2 CONT This has been quite a long narrative, but I thought I would like to gi
2 CONC ve you some idea of the early days of the family and the place of thei
2 CONC r origin
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wishing you the best of health and all good things to go with it.  I a
2 CONC m
2 CONT 
2 CONT Respectfully yours,
2 CONT (Signed)

2 CONT Alex was sort of a dilettante - appears to have been well-educated. W
2 CONC e still have his sets of Shakespeare [with newspaper clippings paste
2 CONC d in], Shaw and Scott, plus odds and ends from his travels in Europe
2 CONC . As far as I know he was never married. The depression pretty much wi
2 CONC ped out the family assets, and he lived with Scott and May in Bakersfi
2 CONC eld. I think my dad said he did some gardening to make ends meet, an
2 CONC d I guess he died down there. My dad was close to Alex, and when Alic
2 CONC e died he had Alex's ashes moved to Los Altos.

2 CONT 
2 CONT WEMP ONE OF THE BEST
2 CONT 
2 CONT By Doug Graham, Whig-Standard Staff Writer
2 CONT 
2 CONT Benny Wemp of Amherst Island, whose involvement in harness racing span
2 CONC ned four decades, passed away on Wednesday at Kingston General.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemp, 72, had remained active in standardbred racing as a traine
2 CONC r in recent years. His latest racer, the trotter Worthy Balance, was t
2 CONC raining for another season.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Benny was still very active (in harness racing). He was going to clai
2 CONC m (a horse) at Belleville, too,  said Steve Skene, a family friend.
2 CONT 
2 CONT At one time, he campaigned all over and he was one of the best. Anybo
2 CONC dy that got to know Benny had to like him.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemp was the leading driver at the old Kingston Memorial Centre tr
2 CONC ack several times and remained a top driver-trainer when racing move
2 CONC d to Kingston Park Raceway. He set a unique record in the late 1970'
2 CONC s when he drove six winners, all with his won horses.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He was a combination driver and trainer and he was very good at both,
2 CONC  said Skene, who became one of the drivers Wemp used frequently.
2 CONT 
2 CONT (Benny) was the best at one time, so when he asked you to drive, it w
2 CONC as a real compliment, Skene said.
2 CONT 
2 CONT While he trained both pacers and trotters over the years, it was no se
2 CONC cret on the island that Mr. Wemp's preference was for a good trotter.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He always loved a trotter, Skene said. Benny had sort of a lot of g
2 CONC reat patience with trotters. He could hang a horse up really good.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemp, who was last active as a driver in 1994, was still involve
2 CONC d in training. He had 216 career racing wins and 77 victories as a tra
2 CONC iner.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Some of the pacing mares from his stable were Allison Scott, Debby Ja
2 CONC n Scott, the trotter Hustin Hoss that went on to race at the Jockey Cl
2 CONC ub and Docside, a pacer that won more than $500,000 at the Meadowlands
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT One of his most successful racers, Worthey Balance will bring Mr. Wem
2 CONC p home to rest today at Glenwood Cemetery, next to St. Paul's Presbyte
2 CONC rian Church on Amherst Island.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemp had a history of being able to turn around a troubled horse, part
2 CONC icularly trotters.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Worthy Balance was bred to trot, but he was on the pace when Benny go
2 CONC t him, Skene said. Benny wanted to prove he could trot. He said he c
2 CONC ould get him trotting and he did. 
2 CONT 
2 CONT Today, the trotter Mr. Wemp paid $800 for and which ended up winning m
2 CONC ore than $25,000, will bring his body to the island and his gravesite
2 CONC . Skene will be the driver, travelling along a straight stretch of isl
2 CONC and road that Mr. Wemp also was a purser on the Amherst Island ferry f
2 CONC or many years.

1 NOTE From an email letter written by Celeste Wemp, dated 9 February 2001:
2 CONT 
2 CONT My mother died before I was two years old and I was raised by my fathe
2 CONC r's sister and husband.  I went by their name though never legally ado
2 CONC pted. They were James Roy and Lucia Jerome Magee Zimmerman.  All throu
2 CONC gh school I was Celeste Zimmerman, but legal documents had to be Leon
2 CONC a Celeste Magee.  It would probably be good to put the Zimmerman in so
2 CONC mewhere in parenthesis.  In fact a funny story we tell is when we wen
2 CONC t to get our marriage license and this wasin 1947 - world war 2 era, t
2 CONC he clerk asked for all my husband's vital statistics and then said Wh
2 CONC at's your fiancee's name?  He said her name 
2 CONT is... and turning to me asked what is your name anyway.   He knew Zimm
2 CONC erman 
2 CONT wasn't the legal one.  She gave us a very peculiar look.  I can just i
2 CONC magine her at the dinner table that evening telling about the couple w
2 CONC ho came in and the man didn't even know her name.

2 CONT WE'RE GETTING OUT.
2 CONT A long, painful good by.
2 CONT Emmet Wemple and his Beloved City Seemed Inseparable, but Crime Came B
2 CONC etween Them
2 CONT 
2 CONT By DAVID COLKER - TIMES Staff Writer
2 CONT 
2 CONT In the late 1970's, radio and other small items began to disappear fro
2 CONC m Emmet Wemple's offices near MacArthur Park.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The thefts were a nuisance for the famed landscape architect, but no
2 CONC t enough to chase him from the culturally diverse and centrally locate
2 CONC d Westlake district of his beloved city.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The area was teeming with young artists, architects and designers attr
2 CONC acted by its low-cost housing and funky studio spaces.  It was a tim
2 CONC e when it seemed the MacArthur Park area would become a major arts an
2 CONC d designing center.
2 CONT 
2 CONT But the attacks escalated on Wemple's building, a brown and beige two-
2 CONC story stucco edifice built in 1927 that he had bought and lovingly res
2 CONC tored.  Soon larger items - office machinery, a rug, furniture and eve
2 CONC n a small refrigerator - were stolen.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Someone took the copper plumbing pipes off the rear of the building. O
2 CONC ne night a set of its original wrought-iron gates was pulled from th
2 CONC e hinges, probably by a thief using a truck and chains.  One Monday, W
2 CONC emple and his staff arrived to find that the offices were a bit stuffy
2 CONC , and soon discovered that the air-conditioning unit on the roof had b
2 CONC een dismantled and hauled away.
2 CONT 
2 CONT That, said Wemple, 72, shaking his head, must have taken the entir
2 CONC e weekend.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The urban world was closing in on Emmet L. Wemple & Associates, whic
2 CONC h had designed some of the loveliest oases in and around Los Angles; t
2 CONC he gardens and other outdoor spaces at the J. Paul Getty Museum, UCLA
2 CONC , Paramount and Warner Brothers studios, the famed Shinder House in We
2 CONC st Hollywood and the Nixon library.
2 CONT 
2 CONT But the final blow came earlier this year when one of the firm's archi
2 CONC tects was robbed at gunpoint and roughed up during the day only a bloc
2 CONC k from the office.  A week later, the firm's entire 17-member staff, m
2 CONC oved to a rented space in a modern Pasadena high-rise.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The Wemple firm, whose old offices had Douglas fir-paneled hallways an
2 CONC d counters hand-laid with Craftsman-style tile, now operates out o
2 CONC f  a white-walled, fluorescent-lighted suite of offices indistinguisha
2 CONC ble from those of countless lawyers and accountants.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple now parks in a guarded lot and takes the evaluator to his offic
2 CONC e. There's no vandalism, no homeless people in the hallways; you mak
2 CONC e a phone call and you can get anything you need, he said, looking ou
2 CONC t his office window to the parking lot below.  It's so peaceful here
2 CONC , I can't believe it.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The nattily dressed Wemple moves from the window to his oak desk, whic
2 CONC h looks out of place in his new digs.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The corporate image you find in a building like this, it's not our st
2 CONC yle, he said.  You can't love a building like this.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The dream of an arts colony near MacArthur Park is, if not dead, certa
2 CONC inly is on hold.  Wemple was one of many in the arts/design crowd to l
2 CONC eave the area in the wake of increasing crime and violence.  Given hi
2 CONC s status as a civic leader - Wemple had long been associated with suc
2 CONC h programs as the Los Angeles Conservancy and L.A. Beautiful, and he i
2 CONC s a founding member of Project Restore, which aims to renovate City Ha
2 CONC ll - leaving the heart of the city he loves was particularly symbolic.
2 CONT 
2 CONT When we were making the move, I called about half a dozen people I re
2 CONC spect and asked their opinion, Wemple said.  I wanted to know if the
2 CONC y thought it would do something to my image.
2 CONT 
2 CONT What they said was, What took you so long?
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple brought the Westlake building and moved his firm there in 1972
2 CONC , shortly after he finished the Getty project.  For a man meticulous i
2 CONC n his dress, manner and schooling, it was the perfect location, not fa
2 CONC r from the former sound studio that he and his wife had remodeled an
2 CONC d turned into their home.  I could drive to USC, where I taught, in 1
2 CONC 2 minutes. My wife loved to go to the Hollywood Bowl - that was 17 min
2 CONC utes.  The Music Center was 14 minutes.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It was not just geography that attracted him.  We were right in the m
2 CONC iddle of things,  Wemple said.  We had so many friends in the Grand
2 CONC a Building, nearby, working as architects.  There were designers and p
2 CONC hotographers and suppliers.  We'd go to an art show in somebody's base
2 CONC ment, on a rooftop.  It was just a lot of fun.
2 CONT 
2 CONT As if talking about a country that no longer exists, Wemple describe
2 CONC d now-closed landmarks that were part of his daily routine.  There wa
2 CONC s the Sheraton Townhouse, where we would go to lunch quite often.  O
2 CONC r we might go to the restaurant in Bullock's Wilshire, which my wife u
2 CONC sed to call her club.  Sometimes we would take a client for a walk ove
2 CONC r to the park to sit on a bench and talk.
2 CONT 
2 CONT You would not even think of doing that now.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Gilbert Stayner, an architect, had his offices in Wemple's building fo
2 CONC r 21 years.  He said the area was an oasis for those who craved tradit
2 CONC ional cityscapes.  It's an incredibly wonderful area, Stayner said
2 CONC .  If you go there at night - and look at the buildings, you'd thin
2 CONC k you were in New York.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple took 15,000 square feet of space on the second floor for his fi
2 CONC rm.  He rented out the rest to architects, musicians, a gallery owne
2 CONC r and other in visual arts and design.  There was a space downstair
2 CONC s where they had furniture people, Stayner said.   And then a coupl
2 CONC e more suppliers set up shop across the street.  We had a lot of desig
2 CONC ners coming over here.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The neighborhood began to sour in the late 1970's,  Wemple and Stayne
2 CONC r said.  First, it was the drug trafficking, especially around the par
2 CONC k. The police controlled the problem to some extent, they said, bu
2 CONC t a rash of robberies began.  As gangs gained strength in the 1980's c
2 CONC rime increased.  Parked cars were frequent targets.  And the robbers b
2 CONC ecame more brazen.
2 CONT 
2 CONT After one neighborhood New Year's Eve celebration they found bullet ho
2 CONC les, forehead-high, in Stayner's office.  A bullet had been blasted, p
2 CONC robably from a high-powered rifle at least a block away, through two s
2 CONC ets of French doors and a wall.
2 CONT 
2 CONT People living in inner cities have faced such events for a long time
2 CONC . But not the artistic types, and they had the resources to move.  The
2 CONC y did, in droves.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple said the police tried to help.  They were friendly and they wo
2 CONC uld come take a report, he said, but the volume of what they had to d
2 CONC eal with was overwhelming.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It was not their fault.  But I felt bitter about the city.  It was a
2 CONC n abandonment.  I felt the leadership was nonexistent.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT By the 1990's the furniture dealers were gone and the art gallery owne
2 CONC r, who once occupied much of the first floor, had called it quits.  Fe
2 CONC w architects were left in the neighborhood.  Wemple called a meeting t
2 CONC o ask his staff if they wanted to stick it out.  They wanted to move.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In the long search for a replacement to the suite on Seventh Street be
2 CONC gan throughout the city, but none met Wemple's requirements of a large
2 CONC , interesting space in an area where the staff would feel safe, even a
2 CONC t night and on weekends.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Marc Fisher, an architect with the firm, had a meeting with a real est
2 CONC ate broker one day in May, then decided to walk back to the office. H
2 CONC e entered a liquor store about a block away and was immediately told b
2 CONC y a boy of about 8 to get on the floor.  He was the lookout, I guess,
2 CONC  Fisher said.  I saw these two guys coming at me, so I got on the fl
2 CONC oor.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He had walked in on a robbery.  At gunpoint, he was forced to lie dow
2 CONC n while they ripped the wallet from his rear pocket.  Then, on the wa
2 CONC y out, one of the men hit him on the back of the head with a gun.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It was just hard enough to scare me, Fisher said, and it worked.
2 CONT 
2 CONT When Fisher got back to the office, Wemple was summoned on his car pho
2 CONC ne.  He immediately went to the office and, after making sure Fisher w
2 CONC as OK, called his real estate broker.  I told him to find me somethin
2 CONC g right away, Wemple said.  We're getting out.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Fisher said that he has gotten some static from others in the field
2 CONC .  I was at a dinner party, and a couple of architects made remarks a
2 CONC bout not working in the city, he said.  But I have a hard time takin
2 CONC g seriously remarks like that from people who work on the West side an
2 CONC d live in Santa Monica Canyon.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple said that when his firm moved, he was sure it would not stay i
2 CONC n the high-rise for long.  He wanted to look for space more in keepin
2 CONC g with his firm's image.  But now he is not sure.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It's just so comfortable here, he said with a shrug, almost apologet
2 CONC ically.  The temptation is to stay.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 
2 CONT A few days after the interview in Pasadena, Wemple returned to his ol
2 CONC d building to talk to the manager about prospects for leasing or selli
2 CONC ng the place.  Stayner moved his operation to Sherman Oaks shortly aft
2 CONC er Wemple's group left, leaving the second floor empty.  All that rema
2 CONC ined on the first was a vacuum cleaner repair shop and the offices o
2 CONC f a preschool operated by nuns.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Wemple conducted a tour of the rooms where painter, musicians and arch
2 CONC itects had once worked.
2 CONT 
2 CONT It was the glory years, he said, making his way over scattered boxe
2 CONC s and old blueprints left behind.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Returning to his old office, Wemple took a seat in a swivel chair in t
2 CONC he reception area.  For a moment, he sat hunched over, seemingly los
2 CONC t in thought.  Then he suddenly looked up and peered down one of the n
2 CONC ow-dark hallways.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Old buildings have a way of talking, he said, listening intently fo
2 CONC r voices that he thought he had heard.  But there was no one there. D
2 CONC amned, he said quietly.  This is depressing.

2 CONT 
2 CONT Emmet L. Wemple - (Obituary)
2 CONT 
2 CONT Noted architect helped transform the public face of Los Angeles
2 CONT 
2 CONT Emmet L. Wemple, a noted Los Angeles architect who let others design t
2 CONC he structures while he concentrated on turning their settings into lan
2 CONC dscaped works of art, died on June 5 in Los Angeles, the city whose pu
2 CONC blic face he helped shape for more than 40 years.  He was 75.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The cause was complications after heart surgery, his associates said.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Though his work ranged as far as the grounds of the American Embassy i
2 CONC n Tokyo and the master layout for the government center in El Salvador
2 CONC , Mr. Wemple did most of his work in and around Los Angeles.
2 CONT 
2 CONT A native of San Francisco, he fell in love with the distinctive landsc
2 CONC ape of Southern California the moment he first saw it.  After enrollin
2 CONC g at the University of Southern California, Mr. Wemple made Los Angele
2 CONC s his base, earning his master's degree at the university and teachin
2 CONC g at its school of architecture for almost 40 years.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple's projects in Southern California included the grounds an
2 CONC d parks of the Angelus Plaza senior citizen housing in downtown Los An
2 CONC geles, the Otis- Parsons Design Institute in Los Angeles, the Paramoun
2 CONC t and Warner Brothers studios, the Richard M. Nixon Presidential Libra
2 CONC ry and Birthplace in Whittier, and the J. Paul Getty Museum in Malibu
2 CONC .  He also planned the landscape for the Valencia Town Center and th
2 CONC e Navel Regional Medical Center in San Diego.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Regardless of the assignment, Mr. Wemple saw his task as not so much a
2 CONC ltering the landscape, as extending and celebrating it through design
2 CONC s that served as gentle bridges between the works of nature and man.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Not surprisingly, he  was also active in virtually every preservatio
2 CONC n and beautification campaign in Los Angeles.
2 CONT 
2 CONT One of his last projects is expected to be one of the most memorable
2 CONC , certainly the most visible: the line of trees and other landscape fe
2 CONC atures of the new Getty Center, an arts complex on a mountaintop in Br
2 CONC entwood, which can be seen from the heavily traveled San Diego Freeway
2 CONC .
2 CONT 
2 CONT Mr. Wemple is survived by his wife, Meguila Seno Wemple.

2 CONT After many years of a loving labor, George died before he could have h
2 CONC is work published and his wife, Julia, worked on it for the next sever
2 CONC al years and finally in 1983 she was able to have his work published i
2 CONC n a single book which is in the possession of the New York Historica
2 CONC l Society, New York City. In May of 1996, I was able to locate a secon
2 CONC d copy of George's work in the hands of Michael Alper aka Marc Wemple
2 CONC .  My son, Daniel, and I met in Albuquerque, NM and obtained this cop
2 CONC y of George's work from Michael.  While in Albuquerque, we had a smal
2 CONC l gathering of Wemples, consisting of Daniel and I, Michael Alper an
2 CONC d his wife, Jackie, Robert Preston Wemple and Robert's wife, Nancy, th

2 CONC :
2 CONT 
2 CONT I am married, but have no children - so the Wemples of my line are abo
2 CONC ut gone - I am the last male.  I spent 5 years in WW II, part in the U
2 CONC .S. and part in the Pacific (Australia, New Guinea, Philippine Islands
2 CONC ); went in as a draftee and was released as a Chief Warrant Officer
2 CONC .  I worked for U.S. Steel Corp. as a field engineer for fifteen years
2 CONC .  Then I resigned in 1957 and started my own heating and air conditio
2 CONC ning business here in Crown Point.  I had a slight heart attack in 197
2 CONC 1 so went out of business and retired at age 58.  As stated before
2 CONC , I needed something to keep my mind active so I decided to see if I c
2 CONC ould continue on with the Wemple Genealogy, something that I wanted t
2 CONC o do before but didn't have the time.
