This letter was written by Sarah Jane Ferris (then, Sarah Stephenson) on April 27, 1910. "A little of my life's experiences, at the urgent request of my children. "I was born August 22nd, 1821, in Elizabethtown, Essex County, State of New York. My mother died soon after I was 4 years old. I lived at home until 8 years of age then with a cousin on my father's side for nearly 2 years. Then with an uncle on my mother's side until 13 years old. "In the meantime, I learned to spin wool and flax. I seemed to be the only one who could be spared from home, but spinning was learned at home. Was not brought up in idleness in either place. "In 1836, I left my dear father's home with a married sister for a home in Michigan. Arrived in Detroit the fourth of July after a three weeks journey by canal and Lake Erie. We were both sick with ague and fever a great deal of the time. "I worked at housework and nursing, when not sick. At 15, was baptized and a young man and his sister, who were strangers to me, joined at the same time. Have been a member of the M.E. church ever since. Have made many mistakes, not meaningly. ["M.E." stands for Methodist Episcopal Church, a term used to designate the Methodist Church in the northern U.S. The "Episcopal" refers to a form a governance and not the Anglican Church.]"In 1839, was married to your father [Edwin Zenas Glass] on January 13th, being past 17 years old and your father was 25. We lived together over 18 years, he dying and leaving me with a family of six children. Will not attempt to describe the difficulties that were passed through, which were many as there were only 2 of the children old enough to help provide for our family. I sewed, worked, house cleaned and nursed to help provide. God helped me, gave me good health. Milton, my eldest, enlisted in the war of the Rebellion in 1864. That was another trial. Seemed I could not spare him. While he was in the war, I married again [Isacc F. Perrin]. Lived within a 4 mile radius of the vicinity where I first landed, with the exception of 2 years, for a period of 65 years. [Milton enlisted in the 16th Regiment of the Michigan Volunteer Infantry on August 15th, 1861 and died in the Battle of Cold Harbor in June 1864.] "If I could have written my life's experience as they came, it might have been easier, but to bring it up and live it over, I cannot. It breaks me all up. When this life is over, I hope to be where there is no more sin or sorrow. My great desire is to see my children that are left to me, Christians, trying to make a better world. That would rejoyce my heart more than anything else."Sarah Jane Stephenson"

In the death of Reuben E. Glass, who spent the last years of his life retired from active life, in Broken Bow, Nebraska, Custer county, lost one of its most valuable citzens [sic]. He had been a resident of the state since 1873 and during that time he had become well known and had made many friends who appreciated his character and worth. Mr. Glass was born in Detroit, Michigan, November 13, 1846, third of the six children born to Zenas and Sarah (Ferris) Glass, natives of New York. The father, who was of Scotch-Irish descent, died in Michigan, and the mother survives, making her home in Lincoln, Nebraska. Of their children: one son, Milton, died in the Civil war; one son, Edwin C., lives in Lincoln; one daughter, Mrs. Sarah Frost, lives in Lincoln; others are deceased. Mr. Glass grew to manhood's estate on a Michigan farm, receiving his education in local schools. He served in the civil war as a member of Company D, Twenty-fourth Michigan Infantry, where he won a creditable record, and after leaving the service returned to Michigan, where he engaged in business in the line of retail drugs. His first wife was Mrs. Lina Ferguson, who died in Michigan, leaving one daughter, Mrs. Lizzie Nichols, who has since died. In 1873, Mr. Glass came to Plattsmouth, Cass county, Nebraska, where he engaged in the drug business, and there, on February 3, 1876, he married Miss Margaret Louise Mitchell, who was born in Iowa and came to Cass county in 1874. She is the daughter of Francis P. and Margaret (Wright) Mitchell, the former a native of Greene county, Ohio, and the latter of South Carolina. The father, a physician by profession, died in New Orleans in the fifties, and the mother died in Iowa in 1845. In 1878, Mr. and Mrs. Glass moved to Kearney, Nebraska, where they spent two years, but on account of failing health he was obliged to give up his business, and in March, 1880, they came to Custer county and he took a homestead of one hundred and sixty acres on South Loup where they remained ten years. He also pre-empted one hundred and sixty acres of land, and in 1897 or 1898 purchased one hundred and sixty acres of land on section nineteen, township seventeen range twenty, although he never lived on the latter place, which Mrs. Glass now owns. In December, 1891, Mr. Glass retired from farm life and purchased a comfortable residence in Broken Bow, which continued his home until his death, October 11, 1905. He was survived by his widow, who still lives in the home, where she has every comfort and is surrounded by a large circle of sincere friends. Mr. Glass was a staunch Presbyterian in religious views and stood ready to help any religious or beneficial movement in his county or state. He died in the prime of life, and his death came as a shock to his many friends and acquaintances, by whom his loss was deeply deplored. He was regarded as a public-spirited citizen and highly esteemed by all.

In 1936 resided in Homer MI. In 1931, during the depression, the family lived on Coy Street in Hazel Park, a suburb of Detroit. Mary was apparently working in Detroit and while riding to or from work in a car driven by another woman, was involved in a car-truck accident and was killed. After Mary’s death, and with Boyd suffering from TB, he allowed the children services to distribute the kids as they saw fit. Donald, the oldest, apparently didn’t like this and fought with his father about it; he wound up leaving his family and changing his last name to Voightlander, which is the name he used the rest of his life. Della was sent to a children’s home where she was sterilized and traumatized to the point that she spent most of her life in a mental institution. Sadie was handed over to a 2d cousin on Boyd’s side name Priest; Sadie turned over very bitter and will say little about it. Virginia was adopted out of the family and for a time didn’t know her family or who she was; she must have been able to find them before she died as Sadie and Della both knew her and her children. Boyd Jr., age 19, probably went out on his own also because his widow said that he tried for years to find the rest of his family, with no luck. Born to Mary and Boyd were:

Cherokee County Biographical History - 1889, pp 424, 425:

REV. WALTER L. FERRIS, the present pastor of the Congregational Church of Cherokee, Iowa, born at Oneida, Knox County, Illinois, July 31, 1852, and is a son of Lyman B. and Harriet A. (Newcomb) Ferris, who were among the early settlers of that county. He was reared to farm life, and till the age of twenty-one years he worked for the neighboring farmers by the day and month, attending the Oneida public schools in the winter. It was not until he had attained his majority that he entered Wheaton College; there he found himself all but penniless, but he was filled with an intense desire to do something in the world, and he set to work with a fixed determination to go through at all hazards. His hardy farm life here came in play; he plowed and husked corn, trimmed hedges, sawed wood, did anything to earn the fifteen cents an hour paid the students for their labor. In June 1879 he graduated in the regular classical course of this institution. The following eight months he supplied the pulpit of the Congregational Church of Wataga, Illinois, teaching at the same time a district school near by called the "Hard Scrabble School," and justly reputed one of the most difficult to control. In September 1880, Mr. Ferris began a course of theological studies at Union Park Theological Seminary, Chicago. The first years of his seminary course he filled the pulpit of the Congregational Church at Prospect Park, Illinois. Then for a year and a half he was pastor of the Northwest Branch of the First Congregational Church of Chicago. All the while he was learning the practical with the theological. At the close of his three years' seminary course he was called to the pastorate of the Congregational Church of Dundee, Illinois. This he considered his first permanent work. Though his labors had been blessed for nearly four years he could now feel that at last the time had come when he could devote all his time to his chosen calling. He spent over six years at Dundee, and the church was blessed with several revivals; during this pastorate 130 united with the church, many of them being heads of families. In May of 1889 Mr. Ferris received a call from the church in Cherokee, and began work here the first Sabbath in July 1889. He has ever been a radical temperance worker; while at Dundee he was repeatedly called to speak to the various Prohibition clubs, and other temperance organizations in the towns about him. He is a man of deepest sincerity and exceeding earnestness of purpose and begins the work in his present field with very encouraging prospects. The congregations are large, the membership united; the Sabbath-school is prosperous; the outlook seems propitious. Mr. Ferris was untied in marriage August 9, 1882, to Miss Harriet McEwen, daughter of Ezra and Mary McEwen. Two children were born of this union, Millie and Hattie. Mrs. Ferris was called from this earth September 26, 1887.

Notes for STANLEY KEITH FISCHER:

A letter he sent to his niece, Annette:

Oct. 13, 1997

Dear Annette,

I was involved in a play, "Gilgamesh", when you wrote. I was playing an old man who had lived forever (type casting). My name was "Utnapishtim". He made a lot of long speeches, and it was more than I could memorize. Too bad. I dropped out. Then I had time to get together the stuff you asked for. Jack will likely send you most info about the Fischers, but I'll send some of the info they gave us at the Blanchard family reunion. It was in 1985, the 125th anniversary of the founding of Wheaton College (by your great great grandfather, Jonathan Blanchard. His wife was Mary Avery Bent Blanchard, and your great grandmother Geraldine Blanchard Fischer was their 12th child.

A lot more is known about the Blanchards & Fischers than the Ferris's, but I'll fill you in on as much as I know. Your father (and I) were equal quarters German (Fischer), Welsh (Ferris), English (Blanchard), and Scotch (Morrison). Rev. Walter L. Ferris was a minister in Iowa. Not much is known about his 1st wife, except that she died shortly after having two daughters, Millie & Harriette (Hattie). Rev. Ferris then married Margaret (Maggie) Morrison (my grandmother). They had 3 children, Jessie, Mabel (mother), and Donald. Millie & Hattie were half sisters of Jessie, Mabel, and Don.

Rev. Ferris was a Congregational minister in Cherokee, Iowa, when he received a call to minister to a Congregational Church in Pekin, Illinois (close to Peoria). The whole family moved there, and Mother (Mabel Ferris) went to high school there. Then Rev. Ferris received a call to become Chaplain of Wheaton College, and minister of Wheaton College Congregational Church. He conducted chapel services in the college chapel every school day, then he held church services in the same chapel on Sundays.

After Rev. Ferris passed away, his widow (our Grandmother) came to live with us for the rest of her life. She loved to play cards with Lizzie, and when Roger came along he became a third for their card games of Flinch, Rook, and Rummy.

Mother's half sister Millie married Rev. Alvin Smith. He was a pastor at a church in Rogers Park, a suburb of Chicago. They had one child, Mildred. She married Jim McMahon, and they still live in Florida. They had twins, who are grown & married now. Rev. Alvin Smith became an Army Chaplain in World War II. He was sent to an Army base in Denver, but the altitude didn't agree with him, and he died of a heart attack in Denver. Millie died shortly thereafter.

Millie's sister Hattie married Donald Coates, and they lived in Grand Rapids, Michigan. They had two children, Stanley & Donald. I've often thought Mother got my name from Hattie. Hattie's husband died before his children grew up, and the family moved to Wooster, Ohio. I went to school at Wooster College my Freshman year. I don't know what happened to Stan & Don after that.

Mother's sister Jessie married David Haeger, who owned the second largest pottery in the U.S. They lived in Aurora, Illinois, about 15 miles from Wheaton. Uncle Dave's pottery factory was in Dundee, a short way from Aurora. Dave & Jessie had 2 children, Bob & Helen (Honey). The stock market crash of 1929 hit the pottery factory of Uncle Dave hard (as it did most businesses). The company went bankrupt, and Uncle Dave lost everything. He had to give up his house in Aurora, and the family moved to an apartment house in Hyde Park, South Chicago. Uncle Dave became the manager there, and they struggled through the depression. The Haeger Pottery reorganized and began production again, but without Uncle Dave. He was quite bitter. He & Jessie divorced in the late 1930's, and Dave died shortly afterwards. Aunt Jessie died about 5 years after that. Bob & I were very good friends (still are), and I used to visit him for 2 weeks in Hyde Park every summer. We used to collect autographs together - our prize - CONNIE MACK. Dick was a good friend of Helen (Honey). Bob & Honey came to visit us summertimes at our home on Lake Geneva. Bob got a job working for Sam Langdon, who had the only insurance company in Wheaton. Bob was a straight A student all the way through school, and he picked right up on the insurance business. He moved up from helper to partner, and when Sam Langdon died, Bob took over the business. He was sole owner of a large insurance company. I've always thought that somewhere, Uncle Dave is very proud his son had become the successful businessman that he once was. Bob married Twinks Sweeney, a girl I used to go with. She lived just down the street from our house out on Jewel Road. Bob & Twinks met at a bridge party I had at our house. They have 2 boys, and one of them took over the insurance business. Honey married Tom Angell, and they lived in Wheaton most of their married life. They had 3 girls and a boy. Tom passed away a couple of years ago, and Honey lives in Florida. She was a longtime librarian at Wheaton Library. She still visits there.

Don Ferris was Mother's brother. By the way, I'm pretty sure all of Rev. Ferris's 5 children graduated from Wheaton College. Don married a Texas girl named Fay, while he had a job in Texas. He was always overweight (see his picture), and he died of a heart attack in his early forties. They had no children. Don was a typical fat person - always joking & jolly. He had a wonderful personality, and Mother says he was the most popular guy in Wheaton College. I used to have a picture of famous football player Red Grange. It was inscribed, "To Don Ferris - the greatest bull-shipper in the world." I left that picture in Denver when I moved to Hawaii, along with my autograph from Connie Mack. Wish I had them back.

That's about all I know of the Ferris family. As far as I know, nobody had bothered to research the Ferris's, as they did the Fischers & Blanchards.

There's one item I left out. Rev. Walter L. Ferris had one sister, Dr. Mary Ferris (see picture). She never married, and when she retired she lived with a retired school teacher, Miss Brereton. After Miss Brereton died, Aunt Mary came to live with us for awhile, out on Jewel Road. There she took Grandma Ferris's place in the card game with Roger & Lizzie.

Becky keeps herself busy every day working in the yard & garden. She also sews a lot, and helps Maria with her homework. She started reading to Maria when she was still a baby, and Maria is still a bookworm. She devoured 240 books during summer vacation. She's just starting out in 3rd grade. She's always been #1 in her class, and she loves school (I loved only recess). Hope all is going well for you, Ray, and family. Say hello, and give my best wishes to Ray. I still think of him as that Marine who came to visit you at Christmastime.

Love,

Stan

(3.4.5.1.3.1.1.1.1.2.2) NATHAN CABOT HALE, JR., Ph.D, N.A., FNSS (Photo) - from www.agesofman.org “My name is Nathan Cabot Hale. I born July 5^th, 1925 at Los Angeles, California. I have been told that at my birth my family was worth about five million dollars in various properties, such as oil, mining, real estate, and a ten thousand acre ranch. But all this was lost in stock market crash of 1929. Neverthe less, I was fortunate to grow up with marvelous parents, an interesting assortment of aunts and uncles, and two sets of remarkable grandparents. My heritage from my fathers side were stirring tales of adverturous forebears..and a house full of fascinating paintings and sculpture that had somehow survived the crash. From my mothers side was a devoted grandmother who knew art and literature..and a grandfather who was a master-builder of pipe organs. He could play many instruments, and as a six year old I can recall him playing Bach from memory in his vast and empty organ factory. These things made me aware that true wealth comes from human ability and character. When I was seven, circumstances put me into an orphan’s home where I remained for two years. In that place I was subjected to the most brutal treatment imaginable (believe this), but I survived with my essential spirit unbroken. So I entered into the world with great questions about human behavior and human destiny. The forces of art within me saved my life.” See Internet for other info.

From the pamphlet: “Accomplishments of John M. Ferris – Since 1942 the writer has personally planned, organized and escorted more than 250 group tours to points within the United State, Canada and Alaska. This figure includes no less than 80 special train operations. Using ALL FORMS of transportation these tours catered to those who desired only the best in off-the-beaten path adventures. Many of these events opened new paths for others to follow, many have never been repeated, many can NEVER be repeated. In addition to my personal endeavours in the group tour field I have enjoyed 22 years service with THE PULLMAN COMPANY (former operators of America’s sleeping car system) in road, yard, commissary and stores departments. 10 years service with the old LOS ANGELES RAILWAY MOTOR COACH DIVISION, as a student instructor and dispatcher, and a stint as a supervisor with SANTA FE TRAILWAYS rounds out a rather full career in the field of passenger transportation. Further, the writer is an accomplished motion picture photographer and is well versed in public relations and advertising. All brochures necessary to the successful conclusion of the events sponsored were produced by the writer.” “Memories of a Pullman Conductor: innumerable trips to New Orleans via Southern Pacific’s work-horse The Argonaut; Troops trains galore from Fort McArthur (San Pedro) to Fort Dix, New Jersey; working San Diego and Arizona Eastern’s daily train, San Diego to Yuma; Navy trains galore from San Diego to Great Lakes Naval Training Center; unforgettable trips to Chicago via Santa Fe’s Grand Canyon Limited; and one of my favorites, Southern Pacific’s wonderful old West Coast Limited, a through train Los Angeles to Portland.” He married Ruth {maiden name unk} and born to them were:

It’s a small world – note from Merrily, granddaughter of Walter, noting the connection with the Knox County Ferris’.
”I grew up in Carson City, no direct line from the early Ferris settlers. My "Ferris" mother was from Portland. I was born in Reno because during WWII private aviation was restricted within 200 miles of the West Coast. My dad was managing 3 airports in Calif. when the war broke out. He ended up in Reno around 1943 after spending a year up in Northern Calif. (Beckworth) fighting fires. He dropped supplies to the fire fighters. These fires were started by Japanese hot air, "explosive" balloons which descended on our forests. That information came out after my father passed away; he didn't know how those fires were started, but he had plenty of fires that season up in the Trinity Range. The rest of the War he was chief pilot of a Navy flight training program in Ely, Nevada (on the East). He and my mother married in 1936. So she spent the war years in Reno, as a weather station person at the Reno Airport. She drew weather charts and made predictions, sending up the weather balloons and so forth. My sister and I were born after the war ended, in 1949 and 1950. So we were born in Reno and moved to Carson City in 1960, when I turned 10. My father started a flight training school in the Carson Valley - Agricultural Aviation Academy, located at the Minden Airport. So if you connect the dots with the research on the Carson Valley Ranchers...the Dangberg Family in particular, there is a relationship between the flight School and the Dangberg family. They needed their alfalfa crops sprayed for aphids, and my father (who was one of the first 50 crop dusters in the U.S.) did this for them when he first started the Academy. In return, the Dangberg "okayed" the use of their large fields for aerial application training. In other words, the students and instructors were permitted to train off the Dangberg property, which was the largest ranch in the Carson Valley. The Academy became the largest flight training school in the world during the 1960's and 1970's. Students came from all over the world to attend. But my father always had a very good relationship with the Dangberg family. In fact, my first horse was from the Dangberg Ranch, an old mare who was a driving horse for the Ruth Dangberg. We purchased her from the Achords...Ruth's married name. The mare's name was Rene. (pronounced Reanie). As we know, horses go way back in our family tree... and continue to flow in our veins. Then there is another link that I had not realized... my roommate in college was Hazel Rabe. Her mother was Martha Schultz Rabe, also mentioned in this documention...the Schulz name. This was also a large land holding between Carson City and Lake Tahoe. Interesting as it sounds... Carson City (located in Eagle Valley) and the Carson Valley, the valley just to the South, was home to me for many years. I passed the Ferris Mansion on my way to school, and never thought anything of it. Doug and I were married in Genoa - in the Carson Valley, the oldest town in Nevada, historically known as Morman Station. Our reception was in the second oldest structure in the State, now occupied by the Pink House Restaurant. That ceremony took place 20 years ago and the Supreme Court Justice of the time, Judge Mobray presided. My dad taught his sons to fly. My first job after receiving a bachelor's degree at University of Nevada, Reno, was for the Carson River Basin Council of Governments. That agency studied the entire Carson River Basin, where George Washington Gale Ferris studied the water wheel on the Carson River at Cradlebaugh Bridge, his early child hood memories that resulted in his concept of a ride on a wheel.”

Obituary for Annette (Stowe) Ferris from the Daily Commonwealth of November 18, 1903: Mrs. Annette Ferris, wife of George H. Ferris, died at the Hotel Plum [61 Forest Avenue, Fond du Lac] where the family have been living for some time at 7:40 p.m. Tuesday evening. Death came after a sickness of ten weeks during which the patient was confined to her room and was caused from cancer of the liver. Mrs. Ferris born at St. Louis [Missouri according to the 1880 census, other census records said Wisconsin], May 31, 1844. She came with her parents to Fond du Lac County in 1848 and was married at Lamartine January 24, 1859. With her husband she has been a resident of this city for 16 years. She was a member of the First Baptist Church and was an untiring worker in all of its activities. Besides her husband, she is survived by two sons and two daughters, Rev. E.E. [Elmer Ellsworth] Ferris of LaCrosse; Rev. George H. Ferris of New Haven, Conn; Mrs. C. K. Avery of Merrill, and Mrs. A. H. Adams of Port Townsend, Washington. Her two daughters were with her at the time of her death having been here for several weeks. The sons are expected to arrive soon. The funeral will be held from the First Baptist Church at 10 a.m. Friday morning with interment in Lamartine Cemetery. The remains will lie in state at the Hotel Plum from 4 to 5 p.m. tomorrow afternoon. Rev. E. E. Ferris of LaCrosse is expected to arrive this afternoon and Rev. G. H. Ferris of New Haven, Conn. will arrive tomorrow morning. After the funeral: The funeral services were conducted by Rev. H. C. Miller. The casket was covered with flowers, showing in a measure, something of the love and esteem in which Mrs. Ferris was held by her many friends.

On Tuesday December 9, 1913, this was written about George H. Ferris: George H. Ferris who has been ill for some weeks and who went to Chicago last week is reported to be getting along nicely. He stood the trip to Chicago well and is now able to be dressed and up most of the day. Mr. Ferris, who is 79 years old has made his home in Fond du Lac County since he was 15 years of age and has lived in this city for the past 26 years. For the past several years he has made his home at the Dewey house on East Second Street. He now makes his home with his daughter, Mrs. A. H. Adams at 5524 Cornell Avenue, Chicago. Another daughter, Mrs. C. K. Avery returned to Chicago today after being here to pack up her father's good. His obituary appeared in the Daily Commonwealth [FDL, WI] on Thursday, December 30, 1915: George H. Ferris, one of the well known pioneer residents of Fond du Lac who took a great deal of interest and pride in the doing of the pioneer Fond du Lac people, died at 6 a.m. this morning in Chicago where he has lived the past two years. Mr. Ferris has been in poor health for some time and a telegram today announcing his death was not altogether unexpected by friends who have continued in intimate friendship with him. Mr. Ferris was a prominent member of the Baptist Church, a member of the Wisconsin assembly in 1887, and for many years was active in support of the republican party, having taken active part for years in the conduct of local campaigns. He was deputy oil inspector for several years and on retiring from that work went to Chicago to make his home with his daughter, Mrs. A. H. Adams. Mr. Ferris born in St. George, Vermont in 1834 and came to his oft requested claim that he was one of the really pioneer residents of Fond du Lac. Mr. Ferris kept a store in Lamartine for a good many years. He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Adams and Mrs. C. K. Avery of Chicago; two sons, Rev. George H. Ferris, Philadelphia and Elmer Ferris, East Orange, New Jersey. The body is to be brought to this city Saturday for burial services. Arrangements for the funeral and burial will be announced in more complete form later. Will arrive in this city at 12:15 p.m. Saturday afternoon from Chicago and will be taken immediately to the Baptist Church for funeral services. Burial will be taken to the Lamartine Cemetery.

[Jim - if I had to guess, I would say Elmer was named after Colonel Elmer Ellsworth, Commander of the 11th New York Fire Zouaves, who was killed by a Confederate civilian in May 1861 after he removed a Confederate flag from a hotel in Alexandria VA.] “Jerry Was a Real Boy in Seven Mile Creek – I born in a small village called Seven Mile Creek, located in the township of Lamartine County of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. And I lived right there in Seven Mile Creek until I was fourteen, experiencing the many adventures that small boys then encountered. In after years my two children, Helen and Frederick, clamored for stories of my boyhood days, for they lived in a city, and the things that I had done in Seven Mile Creek seemed curious and fascinating. Still later, my grandchildren demanded the same stories. And to them, those other days when there were no telephones or automobiles were even more strange. When at the age of seventy, I retired from my University teaching, my children urged me to write down the stories of my boyhood days and thus preserve them. I finally yielded, and so it was that I, a grandfather, seventy-five years of age, began my first book for boys and girls about Jerry Foster, who is really myself. Often as I went along with Jerry toward his goal of owning a drum, I closed my eyes and saw before me Seven Mile Creek, that village just past its pioneer days. And I remembered my friends, the games we played and our band. All the adventures in Jerry of Seven Mile Creek actually occurred, and I have told them as accurately as I could after a lapse of sixty-three years. And I found my task so enjoyable that when I finished the last chapter, I did so reluctantly. Very soon I began another story which will carry Jerry through his Academy days.” {Thanks to the Johnsons for sending me this info.} Born to them were:
