12955	[mtunnell.ged] According to the 1880 Census, Willis and Ellen were livin g in East Hamburg, Erie County, New York. Bessie was 7, Albert 2 and little Katewas 5 months old. (1880 New York Erie Co Vol 18, E.D. 88, sheet 7)	HENSHAW, Willis C. (I17541)
12956	[mtunnell.ged] He grew up in Buffalo, and lived at 789 Prospect Ave. unti l his marriage. Thereafter the couple went West. Business had its ups and downs, and at one point they moved back in with his mother on Prospect Ave. for awhile. Bernhart got a position with the Todd Protectograph County, which made machines to prevent forgeries of checks and other commercial papers. Eventually, he was in charge of the firm's entirer sales department. Later, he jumped to a competitor, the Hedman Manufacturing County, risingto V.P. and Sales Manager. He and his family lived in Cleveland, Brooklyn and finally Chicago. He made up the "G.". He actually had no middle name.	HENN, Bernhart G. (I17547)
12957	[mtunnell.ged] He was born in the house owned by his parents in Boston o n the corner of Hayward's Place and Washington (then Newberry) St. He and Elizabeth were joined in marriage by the Rev. Benjamin Colman, pastor of Brattle Street Church, Boston. A few years afterwards, on Jan. 16, 1742, her father gave them a house and property on Sudbury Street. Joshua rose in prominence and wealth. On March 2, 1764, he was chosen first on the list of Selectmen, then the chief elective office in Boston. As war clouds gathered, he caught the eye of John Hancock who asked him to sit with him on several committes to discuss unfolding events such as the Boston Massacre. Joshua had sufficiently read the law to act as counsel at these functions, and was assisted in that endeavor by John Adams. He was also a member of the (pre-Revolutionary) House of Representatives. When the British occupied Boston, Joshua was compelled to move to Leicester, in Worcester County, Massachusetts. where he brother Daniellived. He then moved to Dedham, where he spent his last few years as an invalid. He died there August 5, 1777 at the house of Hon. Sam. Dexter.	HENSHAW, Joshua (I17503)
12958	[mtunnell.ged] His middle name reflects his father's admiration of Prussia n General Baron Von Steuben, whose leadership and drilling activities kept the Continental Army together at Valley Forge during the winter of 1777-8. Some time during that bitter December of 1777, it is clear that his father visited his mother, and James Steuben came along nine monthslater. In 1806, it is recorded that James S. Henshaw purchased from the Holland Company a plot in Township 9, range 6. Quoted from PIONEER HISTORY OF THE HOLLAND PURCHASE OF WESTERN NEW YORK, by O. Turner He served in the War of 1812 as a Pvt., N.Y. State Militia New York Adjutant General's Office Index of Awards on Claims of the Soldiers of the War of 1812. Albany: 1860; Ancestry, Inc.; Claim No. 4,399, page 231.	HENSHAW, James Steuben (I17528)
12959	[mtunnell.ged] She was married at 18.	HENSHAW, Katherine (I17545)
12960	[quest496.ged] Excerps from OTN: He apprenticed along with his brother Jos eph Coit inthe drug shop. He lived then with his uncle Daniel Lathrop. Excerps from COIT FAMILY: " In 1783, soon after the revolutionary war, hevisited England, Holland, and France, passing the winter in 1784 inParis, to acquire a familiarity with the language, where he enjoyed theacquaintance with Dr. Franklin, then our Minister in France, and of theMarquis La Fayette, lately returned from his American campaigns, and whoehn, as ever afterwards, was pleased to minifest his regard for thecountry of his adoption by courteous attentions to every American. " Among the matters of interest witnessed by him in Paris was thefirst successful balloon ascencion, which was made in December, 1783,from the gardens of the Tuileries, by Messrs. Robert and Charles; and heused to describe the enthusiasm of the French people at the success ofthis novel and bold enterprise, from which results were anticipated bymen of science as well as by the public. [From OTN: He writes: The two men ascened to about 500 yards in the air, and thensailed oon the wings of the wind about 9 leagues. The wind was small,and they sailed along very prettily; they were about 2 hours and a halfin going 9 leagues. The novelty of the thing is so great that itingrosses half the talk and attention of the city."] " After his return from abroad he became associated in business withthe late Mr. Thomas Lathrop, who after a few years retired, leaving himalone in the business, which he continued for some years. [OTN: "After his return from Europe he resided until his marriage in 1786(to Eliz. Bill) with Madam Jerusha Lathrop, the widow of his uncle Daniel. " He was considered"philosphical, haughty, and appears to have been well educated.] " In 1801 he removed with his family, for two or three years, to thecity of New York, where he was engaged in foreign trade, in partnershipwith his brother-in-law, the late Mr. Joseph Howland. At the expirationof this time he returned to his former residence in Norwich, where hepassed the remainder of his life without again embarking in the hazardsof commerce. He had before this time been one of the original purchasersfrom the State of Connecticut of that portion of the State of Ohio knownas New Connecticut, or the Western Reserve; and much of his time wassubsequently engaged in the attempts at colonizing and settling thatterritory, which he repeatedly visited while yet a wilderness. Planshad, indeed been originally formed for an early settlement of thecountry, but in consequence of the opposition of hostile interest, and ofpolitical causes which belong to the history of the times, theseexpeditions were for a long time frustrated, and the proprietors weresubjected to a tedious and costly struggle in providing for thenecessities of this remote region. " The means of transportation between the western country and theseaboard was naturally regarded by him as of the highest importance. Hehad while abroad examined, with much interest, the canals of Holland andof England, and he was among the first who conceived and advocated thesystem of internal improvements that have already overspread our country,and have abridged to an interval of little more than twenty-four hours, adistance which he first knew as a toilsome journey of as many days." " Before these improvements were commenced he devoted muchconsideration to the possibility of discovering or providing some resultof productive industry, of sufficient value to bear the cost oftransportation from so great a distance. At one time the production ofraw silk he thought might prove available, and with this view hecarefully studied the modes of culture and manufature abroad and in usein this country. And in order to determine the point practically, withcharacteristic forethought, he procured experieinced persons to raise oneor two crops of the silk-worm on a sufficiently large scale under his owninspection, having, fortunately for the experiment, an ample supply ofthe proper mulberry trees at his disposal. The result of this trial,however, satisfied him that there were insuperable obstacles to itsmeeting the end designed. " In politics, he was a federalist of the old school, satisfied thatour form of government was the one best adapted to our circumstances,only requiring to be administered by upright men, and in such manner asto interfere as little as practicable with the legitimate pursuits of theprivate citizen. But he took no active part in public affairs furtherthan in systematically voting at elections, and occasionally filling theoffice of Representative in the State Legislature; obligations heconsidered equally due by the citizen to the public when called upon, forhimself preferring the repose and unobtrusive pursuits of private life."	COIT, Daniel Lathrop (I17970)
12961	[quest496.ged] Merrill, was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the eldest o f three boys.He was educated in Grand Rapids and worked during the summers on the roadselling bonds to banks, a line of work that he continued with aftergraduation from college. He graduated from Yale in the School ofArchitecture or possible the School of Fine Arts. At some point he movedto Chicago where he joined a young set with whom he attended dances andtheatre. While in Chicago he earned a good living and had himself in agood financial situation before he really set his sights on a wife. Hemet Eleanor in Chicago. However, there is no question that Merrill wasvery, very much in love with her. Merrill was therefore 33 when he married, a relatively late age formarriage. Eleanor was 24 years old and was quite a lively catch forMerrill, who was a rather staid investment banker. Eleanor and Merrill originally lived in an apartment in the Lincoln Parkneighborhood of Chicago. They had an Irish maid who helped with the homeat the beginning and upon babys birth became the nurse. The nurse named the baby "Poochy" and when questioned about this sheanswered that "Sure and the isn't your pooch in which you keep yourvaluables?" Merrill was overjoyed at having a baby, something that showsin the pictures taken at the time. Sometime during that time they moved to a house on Hampton Court and itwas here that little Elly was born the next year during a very hotsummer, and Celia 2 years later. Just after little Elly's birth, but before Celia's, Merrill quit hisemployment because of what he belived to be dishonesty. It must havebeen difficult with a new family, but his moral and ethical standardsreally demanded this. About a year later he started work at thetimberbond house, Baker Fentress. He specialized in timber bonds, and athis death at age 50 was the treasurer of Baker Fentress. After 2 or 3 years at Hampton Court, Merrill bought the house at 453Deming Place. It was about the time of this move that Dr. and Mrs.Babcock came to live with the family. The girls lived in a nursury onthe third floor next door from the nursery, while the grandparents andparents had their rooms on the second floor, where there was also a verylarge library. The first floor had the formal living room, dining room,kitchen, and small back yard. His avocation and love were all toward art and painting, undoubtedly aninheritance from his grandfather Daniel W. Coit. He always travelledwith a sketchbook. When Eleanor and Merrill went on vacation he wouldpaint and many of the works hung on the walls of the family home. AtGreen Lake Eleanor would accompany him on his painting, and while hepainted she mended clothing. The only work that Merrill did that Momstill has is that of the head which is located over the Dutch Crate atthe Hearthstone. He was a member of the Paletine Chizel Club andcollected art as was his wont. Each of Merrill's family had portraitpainted. After marriagethey belonged to the Tiptoppers Club, a dinner-dance club.He liked music and was a good dancer. Merrill played the piano,although he couldn't read music. Merrill was deeply religious and interested in different thingsreligious. He attended and was treasurer for the Fourth PresbyterianChurch in Chicago (a social church), and Eleanor attended but with lessenthusiasm. The girls attended Sunday School there and would join theirparents when they arrived for the 11:00 service. They had their own pewas was customary. His beliefs was strongly held and did not allow formuch questioning. Although the Coit household had "help" they neverconsidered that they had servants. On one occiasion the girls and Merrill attended Gypsy Smith's RevivalMeeting. After the meeting Gypsy Smith (from Cambridge, England.) wasinvited to the Coit's house for dinner. Later when Eleanor and the girlswent to Europe after Merrill's death, they visited Gypsy Smith inCambridge where despite being married he was extremely "attentive" toEleanor Coit. During the depression, Merrill died suddenly of a heart attack. He hadcome home in the middle of the day feeling ill and went to take a bath.When something alerted the help to the fact that he had not gotten out ofthe bath, they went in search of him and found him dead. To Eleanor'slater dismay, they called the Fire Department who came immediately. Despite the fact that Dr. Babcock had died much earlier, Wraxall stillworked for the family. Wraxall came to pick the girls up as usual, andWraxall somberly turned to the three of them and told them that theirdaddy had died. From school Wraxall drover them to pick up their mother.Eleanor had known that Merrill had angina, but not the children.	COIT, Albert Merrill (I17988)
12962	[quest496.ged] Paul died in Santa Barbara, California. from polio meningit us contractedfrom a patient. He passed away in three days.	HANSEN, Paul Scott Dr. (I17992)
12963	[quest496.ged] With the suddenness of Merrill's death, Eleanor decided tha t she and hergirls could not spend Christmas at Deming Place and she purchased ticketsto the Caribbean. Wraxall drove them to New Orleans where they took aboat to Cuba and British Honduras, returning home after Christmas.	BABCOCK, Eleanor Clinton (I17987)
12964	[Robert Drury] m. (2) Anne, daughter of Edward Jernegan (or Jerningham) of Somerley, widow of Edward, Lord Gray, by whom no issue. [Ancestral Roots] Note: I believe that Edward, Lord Gray (who may not have been a Lord Gray/Grey], is son of Thomas Grey, Lord Ferrers of Groby by Cecily, Lady Harington & Bonvile. His elder brother Thomas was 26 in 1504 (b. 1478), so Edward may have been b. 1380 or so. I find nothing on Edward Grey, but the source for info on both of the Thomas was: [Complete Peerage V:362-3]	JERNEGAN, Anne (I12857)
12965	[Source: Brian Thompsett] Acceded 945. Abdicated in 980. King of York 943. King of Northumberland. Which wife was the mother of which child is an issue for debate between sources. ---------------------------------------------- Olaf SIHTRICSON, byname (in sagas) OLAF THE RED, or OLAF CUARAN, Olafalso spelled ANLAF (d. 981?, Iona?), king of the Danish kingdoms of Northumbria and of Dublin. He was the son of Sihtric, king of Deira, and was related to the English King Aethelstan. When Sihtric died about 927 Aethelstan annexed Deira,and Olaf took refuge in Scotland and in Ireland until 937, when he was one of the leaders of the formidable league of princes that was destroyedby Aethelstan at the famous Battle of Brunanburh. Again he sought a home among his kinsfolk in Ireland, but just after Aethelstan's death in 940 he or Olaf Guthfrithson was recalled to England by the Northumbrians. Both crossed over, and in 941 the new English king, Edmund, gave up Deira to the former. The peace between the English and Danes did not, however, last long. Wulfstan, archbishop of York, sided with Olaf; but in 944 Olaf was driven from Northumbria by Edmund, and crossing to Ireland, Olaf ruled over the Danish kingdom of Dublin. From 949 to 952 he was again king of Northumbria, until he was expelled once more (this time by Erik Bloodaxe), and he passed the remainder of his active life in warfare in Ireland. But in 980 his dominion was shattered by the defeat of the Danes at the Battle of Tara. He went to Iona, where he died probably in 981, although one dubious account says he was in Dublin in 994.

Original Manuscripts are at the College in Chico,California Lists wife as Mary. Since she was his wife when he moved to Paskenta,they did not know that the mother of his children was Emily Merrill, whodied in 1868. This document lists "other grandchildren of John." The ones I do nothave a record of are: Daniel Udell, born 1847, Ralph Udell, born 1855,and Irene Udell, born . The parents of these additional grandchildrenwere not given, so I am only listing them here. Corning, Tehama, California Library, Microfiche of County Records: Has Birth date as 28 June 1793, probably from headstone. Have pictures of headstone in Paskenta, Tehama, California cemetery. Heis buried in the Wood family plot, along with his daughter Caroline MaryUdell Wood, her husband Stephen and their family. Aug 2000, Red Bluff, Tehama, California Court House. Probate CourtRecords. November 12, 1877, Alva Udell, grandson of John, filed to becomethe Administrator of the Estate. He posted a bond of $250. and wasgranted the Administrator ship. This is very interesting, since Johnsupposedly died intestate, not having any property, real or personal.This is also declared in the document, 'no property of any kind...'.There are three separate documents and in the first Alva Udell lists allknown, living relatives of John. It is here the location of Mary, John'ssecond wife if mentioned: '..believes and therefore alleges to be theheirs at law of said deceased are Mrs. Mary L. Udell, widow, age ,residing at some place in Arizona Territory, ......'. If no propertyexisted in John's name, why file Probate over four years after his death?Photo copies of the Probate records are in my files. Correspondence with Scott Hall, 25 Aug 2000. Refers to research byDennis Marr and Susan B. Naumann. Some records have birth year as 1793 and some 1795. Further researchleads me to believe he was born in 1794. He says he celebrated his 65thbirthday while on the Beale Road. Has second wife's name as "ClarindaAnderson", but it should be "Mary Llarinda Anderson."

P.Smith 2002 GenForm, Posted by Mel Bliven, 14 Dec 2001 'Family of Lionel and Abigail Bill Udall Partial genealogies of 'our' Udall/Udell family have been written, andare dated 1856, 1859, 1878 (not seen), 1882?, 1904, 1906, 1929, and 1950.There may be many more, and if you have one, or know of same, pleaseadvise. 1856. The earliest known story is that told by John3 Udell in his "Lifeof Udell." It is reasonable to assume that he relied on his father'srecords. His book is 'John Udell, Incidents Of Travel to California,Across The Great Plains; Together With The Return Trips Through CentralAmerica and Jamaica; to Which Are Added Sketches of The Author's Life.'Jefferson, Ohio; Printed for the Author, at the Sentinel Office. 1856.When I started becoming interested in Family history I knew little of theUdell's. The 'furthest' for me was Henry, remembered by my mother as"little grandpa." Passing by a bookcase at Goodspeed's (Boston, SuffolkCounty, Massachusetts) in 1970 I saw a copy of John Udell's book and hadto have it. That was the highest-priced book I had ever bought-$80.00. Amicrofilm copy is available, for $20.00. As of December 12, 2001, youwill need to send $20 to Lynne Morgan, Disciples of Christ HistoricalSociety, 1101 19th Ave S, Nashville, TN 37212, with your order for themicrofilm. She will order it for you--it usually takes 4-6 weeks, asthey have to send it out to be done. This is microfilm and can only beread on a microfilm reader. 1859. One of the rarest books in Western Americana is 'John Udell'sJournal," published in Suisun City, Solano County, California, in 1859,which describes John 3 Udell and his wife Emily's adventure-filledjourney to California. A variant edition was published in 1860 (notseen), and an edition was published in 1946. It is available on-line, inchapters. 1878.

He writes "Thefollowing record of two generation of the Udall family is from an accountbook of Dr. Lionel Udall, a practicing physician at Stonington, Conn., inthe first half of the eighteenth century. Dr. Udall, who is ignored byWheeler in his history of the town, was a man of considerable prominence,and appears to have had a large practice in eastern Connecticut andthroughout Rhode Island, extending from New London to Newport. He issaid to have been born in England about 1690, to have come early to thiscountry, and to have married in Stonington, where all his children wereborn, and where he died in 1767. The accounts in his book range from1750 to 1767. Besides medical charges and credits on the opposite pageto patients, the volume contains a few private memoranda and thegenealogical record. The first half of the latter is in the handwritingof Dr. Lionel Udall himself, the last in that of his grandson James, bornSept. 19, 1779, son of Samuel Udall.	UDELL, John III (I18365)
