| 1152 | This is the second child of John and Isabel to be named William. The first William (I4522) died young, prior to this William's birth. It's reasonable to conclude that this man was named in memory of his deceased elder brother. | Burnett, William (I2137)

| 1155 | This newspaper clipping gives very few clues as to its source. It was in Barbara Chamberlain's collection, mentions "Grace Church" and credits the photo to the "Evening Post". I'm guessing 1930 timeframe. Was this during his days at The Taft School in Watertown CT? There is a connection between that school and Grace Church in NYC - and Grace Church in NYC has a long history of a choir of Men and Boys. So maybe? | Chamberlain, Thomas Taber Sr. (I762)

| 1171 | Transcribed by Record: "Joan Campbell", (granddaughter of the couple) from an undated newspaper clipping BRENHOLTS - MATTICKS Wednesday evening at eight o'clock was the hour when in the First Methodist Episcopal church, Rev. L.C. Sparks united in the holy bonds of matrimony Miss Marguerite Matticks, daughter of Mrs. David William Matticks of 202 West Church street, and Mr. Roy Brenholts, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Brenholts of Woodland avenue, Columbus. The ring service was used and the wedding was beautiful in its simplicity. Miss Pearl Bourner presided at the organ and at the appointed hour the bridal party entered to the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march, while the recessional was Mendelssohn's march. Mrs. Matticks gave her daughter in marriage and Miss Bernice Bates of Parlette, Ohio, cousin of the groom, was her maid of honor. Mr. Raymond Matticks, brother of the bride, attended the groom. Miss Matticks, who is one of Newark's most charming and beautiful young women, was a vision of loveliness in a white silk voile robe over white messaline with trimmings of Duchess lace and pearls and a full length veil caught in her coiffure with bride's roses. She carried a bouquet of bride's roses with a shower of swansonia and her only ornament was an exquisite gold necklace of amethysts, pearls and diamonds, the gift of the groom.Miss Bates was gowned in white chiffon over satin, carried pink sweet peas and wore a wreath of the same flowers, while Mrs. Matticks wore a dainty gown of white bastiste and Valenciennes lace. Following the marriage service the relatives and a few intimate friends of Mr. and Mrs.Brenholts were invited to the home of the bride's mother where an informal reception was held and a buffet luncheon served. The parlors were elaborately decorated with ferns, smilax, laurel and other spring flowers. When the bride's cake was cut the thimble was found by Miss Ruth Miller, the coin by Mrs. Williams, and the ring by Miss Bernice Hatch, who also was the fortunate recipient of the bride's bouquet. During the evening many congratulations and best wishes were given and received. Sometime during the evening the young people slipped away from their guests and entering Mr. Brenholts' White Steamer touring car started on a trip through Ohio, Indiana and Michigan. On Saturday they will join a house party at the home of Miss Gladys Taber in Araor, Ind., a schoolmate of the bride at Oberlin, and in the evening a dance will be given in their honor. They will then proceed through Michigan, visiting Gull Lake and many other points of interest, returning through Detroit and Toledo. They will reside for the present at the home of the groom's parents in Columbus and probably this fall will take up their home in West Virginia. Mrs. Brenholts' going away gown was a grey cloth Russian blouse suit with accessories of the same color. The bride was one of the most popular young women of this city's younger social set and has lived in this city all her life. She is a graduate of the Newark High school in the class of '08, and this past year was a student at Oberlin College. Mr. Brenholts graduated from the Ohio State University in '07 in the mechanical engineering department, is a member of the Iota Chapter of the Chi Phi fraternity and is also a member of the honorary fraternity for engineers, the Sigma Xi. He and his father are coal mine operators in the Hocking Valley, West Virginia and Kentucky. Mrs.Brenholts presented her maid with a beautiful topaz brooch, while the groom gave his best man a pearl scarfpin. Among the out of town guests present at the marriage were Mr. and Mrs. Irwin, and Miss Dorothy Irwin, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Brenholts, Miss ___m Smith, Mrs. Z. Williams, Dr. and Mrs. Woods, all of Columbus, Mrs. ___uhar and Mrs. Corbin, aunts of the bride from Zanesville, Misses ___ha and Bernice Bates of Parlette, Ohio, Mr. George Fairbanks of Springfield, Mrs. John Hoagwood of Mt. Vernon, Mr. Brown of Columbus, Mrs. Charles Adams of Parkersburg, W. Va., Miss Spencer of Granville, Mrs. A. K.

Upon her death, Homer Price bought out his brother Hank and two sisters, Beulah and Gladys. This property became "the family farm." | Williamson, Samuel Robert (I507)

| 1198 | When God Winks at You: How God Speaks Directly to You Through the Power of Coincidence by Squire Rushnell is a book I haven't read, but would like to. The idea of coincidence being a little wink from God is one of those concepts I find exceedingly comforting. At any rate - there's a great story of coincidence in our very own family. Samuel Scott Riffle, known to most (even his wife) as Mr. Riffle, had the kind of tough upbringing that was sadly quite common in the South after the Civil War. To recap: His father died in the war before he was 7 years old. His mom remarried, had a daughter, we're hoping that life was good for them all at this point, though they were in Mississippi and the war and reconstruction were really tough on folks in this area. His mom got pregnant again, Mr. Riffle was in his early teens at this point. His stepfather (Mr. Murphy) died in an accident coming home from town, leaving Amanda, his pregnant widow, Josephine, his 5 year old daughter, and SS Riffle, his 13 year old stepson, to fend for themselves. Mr. Riffle had either already gone off to work somewhere, or he did so after his stepfather died, we don't know. All we do know is that he was, at the young age of 13 or 14 not at home with his mother when she had the baby. The baby, a boy, was either stillborn or died shortly thereafter. Amanda apparently lived for a short time, a week, a few months, we don't know, but then she died as well. Mr. Riffle couldn't get across the Mississippi river to get home immediately(flooding season apparently), and by the time he did get home, his mom was buried, and his sister Josephine was gone to live with other family. We aren't sure if he even knew where she was. He was completely on his own, it was 1870 and he was only 15. He survived, thrived actually. Became a successful farmer, a father many times over, and eventually ended up in the great state of Texas. But there must have been, always at the back of his mind, a desire to find his sister. To know if she had turned out ok, to find his own connections to his past. Flash forward to 1901. Mr. Riffle's first wife, Sarah Josephine Faucett, had died leaving him with 6 children. He remarried (Mary Elizabeth Embry) and had one more child (my grandmother, Katie Alma Riffle). While Miss Mary was pregnant with Katie, Mr. Riffle and his (former) father-in-law Andy Newt Faucett decided to go to a Civil War Veterans reunion, to see if there was any way for Mr. Riffle to find his family. Another gentleman, Bartholomew Roach, had gone to this reunion on behalf of his wife, Josephine Murphy, to find her brother. Bat Roach asked a nearby gentleman if he knew Samuel Scott Riffle. The gentleman he asked was Andy Newt Faucett. God winked. After that, the Roach and Riffle families stayed in touch. There was even a time that the Riffles stayed with the Roaches while their house was being built. Must have been a bit crowded - 7 Riffle children, 12 Roach children, 4 adults, and all the assorted farm animals. Over the years we've lost touch with the Roach side of the family, perhaps we can reunite again someday. The facts remain however - Terrible tragedy, extreme hardship, loss of family - survival and success in spite of it. As a descendant of this great man, I hope I can live up to his example. Personally, I find so much inspiration in the story of Samuel Scott Riffle, he's definitely one of the "dead ancestors" I'd love to meet. Please share your stories! | Riffle, Samuel Scott (I216)

| 1199 | When Katie got her teaching degree, they returned to Follett and the farm. Homer continued to do much of the Traditional women's chores, Katie worked and never much liked housework anyway! Katie tells that she enjoyed sleeping late, but never really could because Homer would make such a racket in the kitchen with breakfast that she just HAD to wake up - she giggles when she says "I think he was noisy on purpose, he always liked to have me near him. | Price, Homer (I190)

| 1200 | When Paul Jones Taber moved to Fort Wayne in 1819, he took his children, but not his wife, most likely because she had died. | Brown, Lucy (I883)
