| 682 | From Ireland to America. On "The starved ship." In 1740 he sailed to America on a vessel which was becalmed in the North Atlantic, the so-called "Starved Ship". The ship ran out of food, people died, and some ate the flesh of those who had died and became very ill. It was decided to kill and eat one of the passengers so the rest could survive. The lot fell on Samuel Fisher, but being Christian people thay gave him two days to prepare. In the meantime a ship hove in sight, saw the distress signals, and sent a boat to give them provisions - saving Samuel and his many descendants. The horror of that passage made a lasting impression on Samuel Fisher. He could not stand to see even a morsel of food wasted, or water thrown carelessly on the ground. From Place: Londonderry, Londonderry, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom | Fisher, Samuel (I685)

| 684 | From Joan Campbell: Mother’s 1934 travel with her Grandmother Matticks was a trip around the world, starting in New York and ending up in L.A. China was one of the last places they visited — I know they stopped in Ceylon, too, before that, and obviously there were European ports near the beginning. I’ll have to dig around and see if I have any more detail, such as the name of the ship they took from NYC. In the depths of the depression, few people had money to spare, but my great-grandmother somehow did, and she really wanted to take this trip - but not alone. First she asked Bobbie, who was timid about it, so as second choice, she asked Bobbie’s older sister, my mother, and even though Ginny was married by that time, she told me it took her about 5 seconds to say “yes.” They had a glorious time. Apparently my dad was a good sport about the whole thing. I have nothing to show what ship they took from New York to England, nor the dates. However, they traveled on from England to Shanghai on the Yasukuni Maru, and then from Shanghai to Los Angeles on the Tatsuta Maru. After a short visit in the L.A. area, they boarded the S.S. California (of the Panama Pacific Line) on July 23, 1934 and sailed through the Panama Canal to New York City, landing on August 6th. According to a chart in the Passenger List for that voyage, the one-way fare from L.A. to NYC in First Class was $185.00. Mother said that on each of these three ships, her grandmother would claim one day it was Ginny’s birthday, so my mother was thrown three birthday parties on the trip!

| 686 | From Joan Campbell: Roy and Sara could be married only civilly in 1929, since Roy was divorced and the Catholic church would consider him still to be married to Peggy (Sara was Catholic).

This would have been after the death of Peggy, his first wife, clearing the way for Roy and Sara to be married in the Catholic church. | Family: Roy Brenholts / Sarah C McIntyre (F777)

| 692 | From the adoption suitability interview in 1937: "Katie Price is teaching school and Homer Price is running a cleaning establishment for cleaning and pressing clothes, they employ a reliable woman at the home to look after the child and keep house for them owing to the fact that Katie Price is teaching school." Homer ran a Dry Cleaning business in Follett with brother Hank (Henry). After Hank got out of the business, Homer moved the "Dry Cleaning Plant" to the farm and located it in their garage. Son Mackey (James Malcolm) recalls helping his dad when he (Mack) was a little boy. Homer would drive around to the neighboring farms and Mack would run the deliveries up to the neighbor's doors. After a time, Homer gave up the dry cleaning business and returned to farming, which is all he ever really wanted to do anyway. | Price, Homer (I190)

|
| 696 | From The History of Marshall County: The specific and distinctive office of biography is not to give voice to a man's modest estimate of himself and his accomplishments, but rather to leave the perpetual record establishing his character by the consensus of opinion on the part of his fellowmen. Throughout Marshall county and this part of the state Mr. Taber is spoken of in terms of admiration and respect. His life was varied in its activity, honorable in its purposes and far reaching and beneficial in its effects, and when he was called to the home beyond his fellow-townsmen mourned the loss of one whom they had come to esteem and honor by reason of his sterling manhood. Mr. Taber was a member of the Knights of Pythias and was treasurer of the lodge. From his boyhood days he was a member of the Church of God and loyal to its teachings and precepts. In politics he was a stanch Republican and in matters of citizenship was ever progressive, alert and enterprising. In no sense a man in public life, he nevertheless exerted an immeasurable influence on the communities in which he lived : In business life as a financier, in social circles by reason of a charming personality, in matters of citizenship by reason of his loyalty to the public welfare. In all of his business life he displayed an aptitude for successful management and maintained a reputation for probity and commercial integrity that was above question. | Taber, Thomas Oliver (I798)
|
| 697 | From The History of Marshall County: Thomas O. Taber acquired his education in the Jordan school, in the Plymouth high school and in the schools of Valparaiso, Indiana.

It was subsequent to this time that he attended the Northern Indiana Normal School at Valparaiso | Taber, Thomas Oliver (I798)

| 698 | From The History of Wayne County entry for Enoch Railsback, David's son (and Edward's nephew) The Colonel relates the following reminiscences : His father, David Railsback, was assistant wagon-boy for his brother Edward, who drove a four horse baggage-wagon for the Colonial army. At Gen. Gates' defeat in South Carolina, while the American forces were giving way, he drove his team hastily into a thicket, and soon saw the British light-horse pursuing our forces, who met with great slaughter. Late at night he left the place of his concealment, and returned safely with his team to North Carolina. | Rehlsbach, Johann Eberth "Edward" (I862)
