| 25851 | The son of the third baronet (d. 1777); he was a neighbour of Sir Walter Scott at Abbotsford. | Hay-Macdougal, Sir Henry (of Mackerston, 4th Baronet) (I78209)

| 25852 | The sources relating to Helen Erskine are conflicting. However, it has now been confirmed, particularly through family wills, that she was the daughter of the Colonel John Erskine of the Alva family not the contemporaneous Colonel Jon Erskine of Carnock as stated in the Scots Peerage. Scots Peerage (SP)-Helen Erskine is not referred to in Erskine, Lord Cardross entry but an unnamed daughter of Anna Dundas is. Referred to by name and parentage ( father only, John Erskine of Carnock) in Queensberry entry (However, SP is incorrect in this instance).2,8 Burke's Landed Gentry 20011 states her father is 'Col. John Erskine (brother of Sir Charles Erskine) of Alva,1st Bt and Deputy Governor of Stirling Castle (See Rosslyn, E.)'. The First Baronet of Alva was, in fact, Sir Charles Erkine, in turn, son of Sir Charles Erskine of Alva. The second Sir Charles Erskine had a brother, John, who was a colonel. The Douglas family Bible also says that Helen was the daughter of Colonel John Erskine, second son of Sir Charles Erkine of Alva. The 1741 will and associated document of 1744 of Colonel John Erskine, brother of Sir Charles Erskine of Alva, names his four living daughters including Dame Helen Erskine, wife of Sir William Douglas of Kelhead.9 Named as eldest daughter of the "deceast Colonel John Areskine" in a dispute over his will brought about by Helen's half-sister, Mary in 1739 | Erskine, Helen (I146517)

| 25853 | The Spaldings of Ashintully, Perthshire, Scotland The Spalding family highlighted here lived in Perthshire, Scotland, forseveral hundred years before 1745, and dispersed to Germany, Sweden,Jamacia, Georgia, Liverpool and elsewhere. The castle of Ashintully wasthe clan center in Perthshire. Spalding highlights and lowlights In 1318, Peter Spalding helped followers of Robert the Bruce enter andsieze the town of Berwick from the English. He was English and a burgessof the town, but he was married to a cousin of Sir Robert Keith, Marshallof Scotland. He was granted lands by Bruce on 1 May 1319 in Ballourthyand Petmethy in Forfarshire (now Angus), together with the Keepership ofthe Royal Forest of Kilgerry. He also received a flag with a gate uponit, having a portcullis half raised, and the motto "Nobile Servitium". Around 1060, King Malcolm III "Canmore", who killed Macbeth in 1057,built Whitefield Castle in Strathardle as a hunting lodge. Over 500 yearslater, in 1576, Colonel David Spalding led members of his clan to fightin Flanders for the King of Spain. After 7 years, with the resultingplunder, he built Ashintully Castle, 1 km to the southeast of WhitefieldCastle, which served as a model. In 1615, David "Deas" Spalding started the first regular Highlands marketplace: "Michael Mass Fair". In Gaelic he was called "Daidh Deas" (lineover "e" in Deas). Deas, as here used, requires half-a-dozen Englishwords to give the full meaning - ever, or very restless, ready, brave,wise, etc. Deas means south, and is a relic of Druid sun-worship.Everything if south or sunwards was perfect. But 200 years later, another David Spalding, also Laird of Ashintully,was remembered much more harshly. "He condemned and executed many mostunrighteously, particularly a man of the name of Duncan, who was drownedin a sack in what is still called 'Duncan's Pool.'" During the early 1700's, the family followed the Jacobite cause, lost itslands, and dispersed. Over the years, offshoots of the original Spaldingsof Berwick migrated to Aberdeen, Perthshire, Edinburgh, Germany, Sweden,Jamaica, Liverpool, and Georgia. At least three books have been writtenabout them, by the branches in Germany, Liverpool and Georgia. TheAberdeen branch might be related to the well-known historical society the"Spalding Club" established in 1839. Ashintully Castle, now a 3000-acresheep ranch and Bed&Breakfast, has been visited by Spaldings from theseplaces and more. Following the stories of these people, and the times in which they lived,is fascinating, and makes history come alive. Just think. Until the mid1700's there were no roads or wheeled vehicles of any kind in this partof the highlands, and Gaelic was spoken universally. [To be added: accomplishments of Thomas Spalding of Sapelo, ThomasSpalding Wylly his grandson in gold rush times, Drs Robert and HintonSpalding in Jamaica, etc.] Geography The action takes place in Strathardle, a valley at the beginning of theScottish Highlands in Perth county, which is part of the Taysidedistrict. The "District of Atholl" seems to be a smaller area alsocontaining Strathardle. It is a beautiful area consisting of rollinghills separated by glacial valleys. These are the foothills of theGrampian Mountains. The most popular skiing in Scotland is at the top ofnearby Glenshee. Find Dundee on a map, between Edinburgh and Aberdeen on the east coast.27 km NW is Blairgowrie, and twice as far is Pitlochry. 18 km NW ofBlairgowrie is the village of Kirkmichael. 2.5 km NE of Kirkmichael isAshintully Castle, 120 m higher at an altitude of 340 m.

There was not room to pass without driving on the embankment.

In 1919 she married Andrew Jacobs, who diedseveral years ago. On Oct. 28, 1935, she married Peter Juhl. He diedin 1970. She moved to Aledo following his death.

[Transcribed 17 April 2006, SLJuhl, compiler] FUNERAL HOME NOTE: "In Memory of Florence May Juhl, Date of Birth May2, 1894, Date of Death September 10, 1975, Time and Place of Services,Saturday, September 13, 2:00 P.M., Olin Funeral Home, New Boston,Illinois, Clergyman Rev.

Florence was married briefly to Lewis Jacobs, m.1914 d. 1918, and became a widow within just a few years with herfirst marriage. She then subsequently married her first husband'sbrother Andrew Jacobs, m. 1919, divorced bef. 1934. Florence hadnine children listed according to her son George Juhl's birthcertificate, six were still living in 1975; Wilbur (w. Betty,Davenport, IA), Franklin (w. Virginia, Andalusia, IL.), Samuel (w.Marie, Rock Island, IL-Marie is deceased.), Charles Dwayne (Portland,Oregon & Santa Barbara, CA., deceased), Nellie (Chicago, IL.), Pauline(h. Cook, Graber, of Bloomdale, Ohio). "Including this child, how many children born alive to this mother? 9; How many of these children are now alive? 9." as of May 1937 onGeorge's birth certificate. This number also includes George. Two ofthe children George doesn't remember anything about. However, theywere living when George was born. It can only be surmised then thatthey must have both died prior to George being old enough to rememberthem. After Florence married Peter Juhl, George Peter Juhl was born to them,and they remained married and together until their deaths. She againbecame a widow after 35 years of marriage, and lived another fiveyears after her husband Peter had died in 1970. Florence and Peter lived in Joy, Illinois for many years where Georgehad gone through all his years of school. Most of Florence's childrenby her first two marriages were nearly all grown and out from home bythe time George was in high school. She had one sister who survivedher when she died. The sister lived in Chicago, Illinois. At thistime there is not too much known about her family by her son Georgeother than he thinks she is of Dutch descent, and at one time thefamily lived in South Dakota prior to her being born in MercerCounty, Illinois. Besides her children, she had 16 grandchildren, and27 great-grandchildren. She was a member of the Methodist Church inJoy, Illinois where George was baptized until Peter had a stroke andafter his death she subsequently moved to Aledo, Illinois. In Aledo,she attended the First United Presbyterian Church. Florence is buried next to Peter in the New Boston Cemetery in NewBoston Township, New Boston, Mercer County, Illinois. Conversation with George Peter Juhl, son of Florence M. Hand JacobsJuhl: "Mom had a brother named Clyde. He lived in Creve Coeur in thePeoria, Illinois suburb area when I was growing up. I remember alsothat mom's grandfather was from the Peoria area as well. I think thatmom's family were originally in the Dakota's; I can't remember forsure if it was North or South." The census record for Mercer County,New Boston Township, City of New Boston, June 22, 1900 did indicatethat Florence was living with her mother Alice Hand from Ohio, andgrandmother Hannah E. Ross of Pennsylvania, and a brother named Clydewho was three years old at the time. Their birth dates were alllisted as well. [27 Nov 2004, SLJuhl, compiler] The census for February 9 & 10, 1920, Mercer County, City of NewBoston, both have that Florence's mother is from Iowa, and her fatheris from Illinois. It lists Florence as Head Of House with herchildren Pauline, and Wilbur. Also is listed her brother-n-law Silas,17 yrs. old, a grandmother Lovila, 84 yrs. old, and a brother-n-lawLee, 15 yrs. old, as well. Her husband Lewis Jacobs had just died theyear before in 1919. Florence's daughter Pauline (3 yrs.) and sonWilbur (1 yr.) were living with her and both very young children atthe time. The census lists that their father Lewis Jacobs was born inIllinois. Census dated 9 & 10 Feb. 1920 for City of New Boston,Mercer County, Illinois. [10 April 2006, SLJuhl, compiler] The census for April 03, 1930, Mercer County, New Boston City, NewBoston Township, again Florence is listed as Head Of House along withher children Pauline R., Wilbur S., Samuel, and Charles D.; the onlydiscrepancy noted in this census is that it's known that Florence wasmarried only twice by this time, however, there is three differentstates listed for "Place of Birth of Father", and Samuel's father islisted as being born in Indiana. Unknown where Andrew Jacobs is atduring the census [28 Nov 2004, SLJuhl, compiler]. In 1915, it's documented in the Mercer County Almshouse RegisterIndex, 1859-1949 that all of Florence's siblings were admitted at thattime to the facility.

| 25873 | THE TIMES RECORD NEWSPAPER, ALEDO, MERCER COUNTY, ILLINOIS WEDNESDAY, 21 DECEMBER 1955 OBITUARY OF EVALINA JUHL "SERVICES HELD FOR MISS JUHL Funeral serves were held at 2 p.m., Wednesday in the Olin FuneralHome, Joy, for Miss Evelyn Juhl, 57, Joy, a resident of the MercerCounty Nursing home since 1939. Rev. Samuel Parker, pastor of JoyMethodist church, officiated and burial was in New Boston cemetery.She died Sunday afternoon, Dec. 18, 1955 at Mercer County hospitalafter suffering a paralytic stroke. She had been a patient since Dec.9. Miss Juhl, a daughter of Peter and Lily Stoecken Juhl, had residedmost of her life in Mercer County. Surviving are the father, whoresides north of Joy; her step-mother; an aunt, Mrs. Anna Curry,Muscatine and several step-brothers and step-sisters." [Articleobtained: 15 April 2006, and transcribed 16 April 2006, SLJuhl, compiler.] Note: (Issue #1.) It is unknown as to why at 41 years of age thatEvalina would require a nursing home for health reasons; Either shemay have had an earlier stroke other than the one that she succumbedto in 1955, or another possiblity is if her son Willie died early, andshe had a major break down possibly. George does not remember her atall, and had no idea that she was in the Mercer County Nursing Home inAledo nor does he remember her death even though he was in his senioryear of high school. Their father Peter and mother Florence musthave kept her services very private. From what the obituary relates,only one (Anna) of her father's immediate family members who wouldhave known Evalina were still living at the time near Mercer County,because it is known that some of the family were still in Minnesota.Also, the Mercer County Historical Society records of the cemetery didindicate that Evalina was buried next to her father and step-mother inthe New Boston Cemetery with a funeral home marker and no headstone.The news article does not mention her half brother George Peter Juhl.This is what indicates that the services must have been very privatefor Evalina since George was old enough to know if he had witnessedher services, but has not known about it until now. It may never beknown as to why all of it was kept so private. (Issue #2). What happened to her son, Willie? A letter post marked04 November 1935 from Florence while she was staying in Rock Island,Rock Island County, Illinois with Pauline, her daughter, to helpPauline after a new baby, was addressed to Peter in Joy, MercerCounty, Illinois. A portion of that letter from Florence states,""How is Wayne and Willie getting along and how is Lena?"Apparently, Lena (Evalina) and Willie were living at home with Peterand Florence in 1935. And it was stated in her obituary that Evalinawas from Joy, Illinois, so she must have still been with Peter andFlorence or at least living near them when she went to the nursinghome. There is no mention of her son Willie in her obituary. 2006--Per the Historical Society Records in Aledo, Mercer County,Illinois at the Essley-Noble Museum on East 2nd Avenue, Evalina isburied with her father Peter H. Juhl & Florence Mae Hand Jacobs Juhlat the New Boston Cemetery. A funeral home marker had been placed atone time when the cemetery had been walked per the 1981 Card Index ofthe cemetery, but there is no marker present now in 2006.

| 25882 | The traditional hero of the family is Sir John de Carmichael of Meadowflat (later of Carmichael) who became the first chief of the clan. He was the son of the 2nd Baron of Carmichael, William Carmychel, who built the first castle on the estate around 1414. Sir John was a knight in the Scottish army sent to help the French repel the English invasion during the Hundred Years War. The French army was on the verge of collapse when on 22 March 1421, Sir John engaged the Duke of Clarence, brother of King Henry V of England, at the Battle of Beauge. During their charge with lances drawn, Sir John unhorsed the Duke, breaking his own spear in the process. At the death of their Commander the English troops fled in disarray, turning the tide of the war. For this deed, the grateful French awarded Sir John the family crest featuring a broken spear grasped by a gauntlet (an armor-clad hand). He was appointed Bishop of Orleans in 1426 during the rise of Joan of Arc. Sir John had three sons: John, who inherited Meadowflat and became Provost of St. Andrews; Robert, whose son John acquired the Balmedie lands in Fifeshire through his marriage to the widow of the Earl of Angus; and William who succeeded his father as the second Chief of Carmichael. William's son George became Bishop of Glasgow. | Carmichael, Sir John Carmichael of (I163152)

| 25897 | The unusual spelling of Reita happened when her father registered her birth and spelled the name with the extra "e". He had planned to name her Rita that would be more compatible with her identical twin sister's name Lola. Lola died at the age of 9 during a tonsil operation. Reita has had snow-white hair most of her adult life. She took up oil painting when she was in her 50s and proved to be very talented. Her home is beautifully furnished with early Victorian and late Georgian antique mahogany furniture. | Smith, Reita Margaret (I189746)

| 25898 | The Venns are thought to have come from the Wash in eastern Central England on The North Sea When some members drifted west into Somerset the name changed from Fenn to Venn gradually some moved into Devonshire at Payhembury on the east side where this Henry was born. He moved west to the vicinity of Kingsnmpton on the east side of the famous Dartmoor Hills and our branch of the family spread around that area for a 150 years when some moved to the English Channel towns and some came to North America and one moved to Australia. The family has been hard for me to trace ... mostly because there were so many sons named Henry. Every family had a Henry and if that name was taken, then William, Richard or Samuel. | Venn, Henry (of Payhembury) (I123280)

| 25899 | The village of Walworth was platted by Carlos L. Douglass and grew until the business check of 1857. Its first tavern was at the house of Christopher Douglass, and was kept a few years later by Carlos L. Douglass, who presently engaged in larger affairs. At some time not recorded nor clearly remembered the Red Lion tavern was built and served its purpose until the new order of village life came in, when a handsome little three-storied house, built of brick, well finished and furnished within and well managed, supplied the later needs. It is named the Wayside Inn. Between it and the school house lies a little park, around three sides of which part of the stores and shops are ranged. As the town grants no licenses for sale of liquor, the school and hotel are not too near together. Their family consisted of ten children, of whom Carlos Lavalette was the ninth in order of birth | Douglas, Christopher (I108116)

| 25900 | The village was first recorded as "Wudeham" in c. 875. The name, which means "village in the wood" is derived from the Old English words wudu (wood in modern English) and ham (home, or homestead). The modern name may derive from the Fitzwalter family who owned Woodham Walter Hall, a moated manor house in the village for many generations. The house was demolished in the 17th century by William Fytch. | Fitzrobert, Walter (Lord of Woodham Walter) (I150865)
