Before he died his was profiled in the local newspaper, giving family genealogists excellent information about the Hauses in Fayette: "By chance last week we passed a night with the aged pioneer Mr Charles Hause on Hause's Point on the west shore of Cayuga Lake. In the morning we learned it was Mr Hause's birthday (86th) and that he had spent eighty of these years on the same point of land. He was born of Dutch parents in the town of Warwick, Orange Co. N.Y. March 3, 1799, a babe in his mothers arms when the "Father of his Country Died". In 1802 his parents removed to the "lake country" and purchased a small place called Ovid Center, the same farm lately owned by Geo Helfuean, son-in-law of your townsman A. Flickinger, Esq. In 1805 or 1809 his father sold this purchase to his brother ... and bought out the improvements of a squatter on a two hundred and fifty acre lot which from him has ever since been called Hause's Point. Here Charles first distinct memory of practical life begins, although he now recalls several incidents of their carving into the wilderness; two weeks on the way in a covered wagon, as was then usual drawn by a yoke of oxen. Very few advantages were offered his youth, but few schools, no churches and their nearest mill was at Waterloo. The wild unbroken forest was spread out all around them with here and there only a settler. The timid gentle deer fed with their herds on their fields of grain till he had reached his early youth. When he had reached his majority he bought thirty acres of the rear part of his father's purchase and began life for himself. In 1826 he married Miss Elizabeth Young, and together they toiled adding to his little lot which with a portion set off to him from his father's estate now makes his farm one hundred and four acres of excellent grain land. Five children blessed their union, two sons and three daughters. One of these sons he gave to his country and he fell in the war for the Union at Cold Harbor, Va., and now lies in an unknown and unnamed grave. His wife, the faithful sharer of his struggles and triumphs, died in 1865 and two of the three daughters since then. He married a second time but was a second time bereaved and now, like a lone forest tree, almost branchless and leafless, blasted by many storms and winds of adversity, he waits his own removal."

              iii. Nelson Harry Hause was born on 12 Jun 1911 in Irondequoit, Monroe, New York. On 19 Dec 1934 he married (1) Marie Ann McHugh (b. 1911) in Monroe County, and after that union ended, he married (2) Marjorie Jean Peterson (1916-2012) on 5 Oct 1941. Nelson was an amazing guy; born poor, he opened a service station in 1938, then turned that into a Packard dealership, a home trailer business and a used car dealership. He parlayed those businesses into real estate holdings: first hotels and motels, and then ended up owning owned 4,100 apartment units in New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. In 1955, Nelson and several silent partners bought the Flamingo Hotel, a 137-foot, 15-story luxury apartment house in Philadelphia. Built in 1950, it was the first interracial apartment building in the city and began admitting tenants in 1951. Eleanor Roosevelt mentioned the building in a speech about the international view of how Americans treat minorities. Jazz greats Arthur Prysock, Charlie Parker, Fats Navarro, and Cliff Brown all rented apartments there. But there were money problems from the start (it was built with a loophole in FHA loans and none of of the loan amount had been paid back yet). Strapped for cash, Hause had to raise the rents and vacancy increased from 5% to 22%. In response, Hause furnished a portion of the apartments and was able to rent them out on a weekly basis. Though he was able to keep vacancy down, the transient nature of the new residents damaged the sense of community within the building, which he ultimately sold in 1957. ( https://www.ocfrealty.com/naked-philly/temple-area/delorean-time-machine-flamingo-apartments ) In the late 1950s he also invested $173,000 into some sort of foreign motion picture rights deal, which would result in years of courtroom litigation for his poor widow Marjorie (Records & Briefs New York State Appellate Division, Index No. 28228/1961). Nelson died on 2 Feb 1960 in Rochester, Monroe, New York, when he registered at someone else's hotel and took his own life. The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle reported that his body was found in a seventh floor room of the Manger Hotel in Rochester. He died clutching $340 in a paper clip and a letter "indicating despondency." An empty bottle of sleeping pills was found in an overnight bag beside the bed. Nelson also left behind a 15-year-old daughter:

He spearheaded Hause genealogy from the 1980s through the 2010s, leading all of us family historians down the long, winding path to... well, we still haven't figured that out. If you had any questions about any branch of the family tree, he could describe every twig, leaf, and blossom (not to mention every nut). He even inspired this webpage, as a matter of fact. (Thank him for the info; don't blame him for my opinions.) He was a loving husband and proud father, grandfather and great-grandfather, living many happy years until he passed away on 29 Dec 2014 in Hagerman, Gooding, Idaho.

Joe was born and raised in Niagara Falls where he attended LaSalle High School and captained its football team. After marrying his wife Patty (the former Patricia Jane Parsons of Royal Oak, Michigan) and graduating from Antioch College, Joe served as a naval officer in Washington D.C. He then began a career in public accounting with Coopers and Lybrand, where he rose to become a partner while working in Detroit, Minneapolis, and Des Moines. Joe and his family moved to Dallas in 1973, where he joined Republic National Life Insurance Company. He served in senior finance roles with Republic and its successor companies in Dallas and Houston until he retired in 1994. He and Patty moved back to Dallas to join the Highland Springs retirement community when it began in 2006. An avid golfer, Joe also enjoyed gardening and traveling, and participated in numerous running races and marathons. He volunteered his services to many organizations, including Unitarian-Universalist congregations in Minnesota, Dallas, and Houston, and served on the Highland Springs Resident Advisory Council. Joe was a supportive and loving father, husband and friend. He always had a smile for those around him, and a commitment to helping others.

          Laban Augustus Hause
          Laban Augustus Hause (1831-1906)
          Has Children 2. Laban Augustus Hause was born on 10 March 1831. He moved to St. Clair Co., Michigan in the mid-1850's after marrying Sarah Deissinger on 20 Sep 1854. and his brother John J. Hause (b. 18 Oct 1829), their wives (the Dysinger sisters) had each been willed about a hundred acres of prime farmland in Lockport by their late father—enough for a small private farm.
             But Laban and John had the bright idea of selling that expensive New York land, and using the money to buy more property in an area where the land was cheaper. The plan was to move west and carve out their own place from the wilderness... and the new frontier of Michigan was beckoning.
             So in the mid-1850s, John, Laban, and Basheba Hause, along with cousins-in-law Daniel and Nicholas Dysinger, headed to the new state with their families—either taking a steamship up the Erie Canal, or by land using teams of oxen or mules, towards the untamed wilderness (read: cheap land).
             The group moved to Riley Center, St. Clair County, Michigan, and started over. Laban and Sarah settled a large section of wilderness on the border of St. Clair and Macomb counties, and local "Otchipwes" (Ojibwe Indians) helped them survive until Spring, when Laban could clear the trees and brush to build a farm, on what is now 13185 Belle River Road in Memphis, Michigan.
             He and Sarah then sold the 100 acres of property that she had inherited from her late father in Lockport, for $500. The document was signed by Sarah's mother, Catharine, and accepted by Laban "House" and Sarah in St. Clair county, Michigan. (On the next page in the book of deeds, Catherine sold more of the Lockport land willed to her other children, including Eve Dysinger-Hause.)
             The various Hause and Dysinger families then settled in, and even began to expand: County records show that on the 13th of May, 1857, 21 year-old Basheba married Charles H. Oaks, 23, of Riley. The witnesses were "Loban" Hause & John J. Hause, also of Riley; the wedding was performed by Minister William P. Russell.
             Living on the edge of the Michigan wilderness left the Hause family far away from doctors, hospitals, and the superior medical attention available back in New York (which in truth wasn't all that great, anyway). There were only ten licensed physicians in all of St. Clair County. They charged from five dollars for minor surgeries, up to a hundred dollars for major ones. There was also a fee of five to twenty-five dollars for midwifery, which Sarah needed in 1857 for the birth of a child:


            Elma Hause Jackson (1857-1942)
            a. Elma Jane Hause was born on 16 Mar 1857. After the death of her mother, Sarah was raised by Laban and his second wife, Melissa Sanderson-Hause. Elma married William Jackson (b. 8 Feb 1852 in England), a Freight Agent for the Owensboro and Nashville Railroad, on 14 Nov 1874 (wedding announcement). Elma died on 3 Mar 1942 in Montclair, Essex County, New Jersey (Elma in her old age). They're buried together at Rosehill Elmwood Cemetery, Owensboro, Daviess County, Kentucky. Their children:

              i. Charles Hause Jackson was born on 25 Sep 1875. Charles lived in Upper Mountclair, New Jersey, and worked for an engineering firm in Manhattan. He married Mildred Weiland and chronicled the 19th and early 20th Centuries of the Hause family in his scrapbooks. Many of the photographs, obituaries and ceremonial announcements on the following pages are from those scrapbooks. Charles died in Aug 1962.

              ii. William Carlisle Jackson was born on 7 May 1884. He died on 16 Oct 1888 in Owensboro, Daviess County, Kentucky and is buried beside his mother.

          Sarah died on 16 Mar 1859 after complications from giving birth to their daughter, Elma. Laban then remarried, to a woman named Melissa Sanderson (1839-1921). Laban died on 14 Mar 1906 in Memphis, MI (see his Death Certificate here). He and Melissa had the following children:

He started out working in a Michigan factory for his father-in-law, but ended up teaching in Southern California with his wife, Jeanne May Brunner. "Bud" loved the water, whether in his youth at the cabin on Vaughn Lake, or raising his kids, Carl Jr. and Marjorie, on the shores of Lake Erie in Gibraltar, MI, or at his retirement home on a tributary to the Colorado River at 85344 Parker, LA Paz, Arizona... or finally the Pacific Ocean, where his ashes were spread in 1983 by his loving wife and children:

                  Has Children a. Carleton Marchant Hause, Jr., was born November 25, 1939 in Detroit, Michigan to Carleton Sr. and Jeanne Brunner Hause. Having grown up on the shore of Lake Erie with his parents and sister, Marjorie, Carl had an adventurous spirit and enjoyed boating and fishing. He graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a degree in Education. While attending college, Carl met his future bride, Martha Ellen Wenk, and after five brief months of dating, they were married on June 13, 1959. In July of 1961, along with their newborn son Jeffrey, they followed his parents and sister out to San Diego, California where Carl began his teaching career. He continued in the line of educators that started with his great- great- grandmother when he began teaching math at Washington Junior High School in Vista, California. While at Washington, Carl began his legendary coaching career in both track and football. In his first nine years of coaching track, Coach Hause compiled a 63-1 dual meet record.
                     In 1965, Carl and Marti added to their family by adopting Kathy. Two years later they adopted Eric and then moved to their current home where they would spend the rest of their lives together. In 1968, with the birth of Michele, their family was complete.
                     In 1980, Carl began coaching at Vista High School and in 1984 he was named the head track coach. In addition, Carl also coached JV football and cross-country. In 1987, he left coaching track after 16 years with an overall win-loss record of 105-5 to take the position of Athletic Director at Vista High. He served as Athletic Director until 1997 when he retired after over 40 years of teaching in the district.
                     In retirement Carl was as busy as ever, being able to devote more time to his fantasy sports leagues, his love of growing rare fruit, gardening, and reading James Lee Burke and Robert B. Parker novels. He was also an avid game player, loved to research genealogy, and enjoyed morning walks on the beach. Carl's retirement also afforded him time to more deeply pursue his faith journey and love for the Lord. The primary way he lived out his faith was through his membership at King of King's Lutheran Church. There he served as a church council member, financial secretary, Sunday School teacher, Men's Prayer Breakfast leader, and Intern Committee Chairman. During his teaching career, Carl was involved with Sunrise Kiwanis, and in retirement was heavily involved with the Vista Golden K Kiwanis, and their scholarship foundation, where he continued to show his care and concern for students. He also volunteered at Meals with Love.
                     Carl was very proud of his grandchildren and loved to visit them in New York, Stockton, Napa, Denver and enjoyed being involved in all their activities. Carl loved teaching and coaching as it gave him the opportunity to impact the lives of students and athletes. He was known for his great sense of humor and it gave him a unique ability to break down walls and bring people together in classroom and life situations. Carl was a great man loved by so many.
                     He is survived by his wife Marti, his sister Margy, son Jeff and his wife Lori Ann, daughter Kathy and her husband Hal Larsen, son Eric and his wife Mary, daughter Michele and her husband John Houston, and eight grandchildren: Sasha Larsen, Dylan Larsen, Camille Larsen, Madeline Hause, Atticus Hause, Phin Lee Hause, and Sara and Avery Houston. They and scores of students, athletes, and congregation members will miss him dearly.
                     Carl died from a heart attack on 18 Aug 2014 in Tri-City Medical Center in Oceanside, CA. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you would donate to Vista Golden K-Kiwanis Foundation, which is a fund for student scholarships, at 14212 Pebble Beach Way, Valley Center, CA 92082 or the King of Kings Memorial Fund.

        On 19 Dec 1852, at the age of 48, Augustus married (2) Fannie CHRISTOPHER (18 Oct 1825 - 9 Sep 1901), according to the Niagara Democrat newspaper. She was just 26 years old, and 4 years older than Augustus's first son, John. Lockport Daily Journal, Lockport, N.Y., Tuesday Evening, September 10, 1901: "Mrs. Fannie S. Howes (SIC) died Monday morning, September 9th, 1901, at her late residence at Royalton Center, aged 76 years. Her surviving relatives are one daughter, Mrs. Ella Miles (SIC) of Royalton, Three step-sons, John J Hawes of McNalls Corners, Laban Hawes of Memphis, Mich., and Augustus Hawes of Sanborn, N.Y., one stepdaughter, Mrs. Barbara Oakes of Marlette, Mich., one brother, William Christophr (SIC), of Old Mission, Mich.

          5. Sarah A. Hause was born on 8 Sep 1863. She is buried with her father and Jane Jones-Hause in the Dysinger-Royalton Union Baptist Cemetery.

          6. Ella Hause was born on 15 Sep 1867 in Royalton, Niagara Co., NY. In 1893, she married George Arthur Wiles (b. 1868 in Genesee, New York), the son of Timothy H. Wiles (1829-1914) and Hannah Haight (1825-1891). In the 1900 Census, they lived in Royalton, renting from Ella's mother, Fannie. Lockport Union, Sun & Journal, Lockport, N.Y., Monday Evening, April 19, 1926: "Royalton Center, Apr. 19—The funeral of Mrs. Ella Wiles, wife of Arthur Wiles, aged 58 years, who died at the City Hospital on Monday afternoon, April 12, was held on Thursday at 2 o'clock at the late residence and 3:30 o'clock at the Royalton M.E.

Miss Florence Woodworth and Rev. Stacey each sang a vocal solo. The floral tributes were many and beautiful. Internment took place in Chestnut Ridge cemetery in the family lot." The death date was never filled in on George Arthur Wiles's burial plot, so it's unsure if he's buried there and never negotiated to have a date carved in, or if he's just buried somewhere else.

        V. AZUBAH HAUSE was born on 28 March 1806. He died three days after his fifteenth birthday.

        VI. BELINDA HAUSE was born on 28 April 1808. She married James Updike (1 Oct 1803 - 27 Sep 1888) on 21 Jan 1829: "Married—On Thursday last by Rev. Lane—Mr. James Updyke to Miss Belinda Hause both of Fayette." (From the Waterloo Gazette, published by George Lewis.) They had at least ten children (listed below). They moved to Tecumseh, Lenawee, Michigan, where Belinda died on 30 Nov 1873. Their children:

          1. Charity W Updike was born in 1829 in New York. She married Rufus Keyser (1826-1878) and died on 9 Feb 1851 in Lenawee, Michigan. She's buried at Brookside Cemetery, Tecumseh, Lenawee County, Michigan, section "I."

            a. Matilda Keyser was born in 1851, and died the same year.

            b. Wesley B Keyser was born on 8 Feb 1851 in Tecumseh Twp., Lenawee Co., Michigan. Portrait and Biographical Album of Lenawee County, p. 419: "The subject of this biographical sketch resides on a tract of 135 acres of land in Clinton Township, Section 17, and is one of the substantial and vigorous young farmers who discover and diffuse new ideas among the thoughtful who follow agricultural pursuits. His beautiful home, from which an enchanting view of the surrounding countryside may be had, is named 'Maple Hill Stock Farm,' the euphonius title of a beautiful and valuable property. Mr. Keyser makes a specialty of stock-raising, and his farm is well supplied with buildings adapted to that calling. He located here in 1883. The subject of this sketch was born on his father's farm in Tecumseh Township, on the 8th February 1851, and is the son of Rufus and Charity (Updike) Keyser, the former a successful stock-dealer and farmer. The grandfather, who was named Henry, emigrated to Michigan in 1830, where he bought land in Tecumseh Township, now the township of Clinton, on which he lived untili a few years before his death, which occured in the same township at the advanced age of eighty-four years. His wife, whose maiden name was Sallie Conner, had preceded him to her eternal rest a few years before, in about the eightieth year of her age. Rufus Keyser was but a boy when he came with his father to Michigan, and assisted in the arduous labors of building up a home, which he shared with his father until his majority, learning to be resolute, frugal and industrious. Finally, after working the homestead two years, he secured a title to forty acres in Tecumseh Township, to which he added until he owned at his death 290 acres of well-improved land. Soon after this purchase, he was united in marriage with Miss Charity Updike, who died at the birth of twin children: our subject, and a sister Matilda, who died at the age of six months. Rufus Keyser was a second time married, to Esther Updike, a sister of his first wife. They lived together twenty-two years and became the parents of two children, of whom Milburn, the only surviving child, is attending school in Tecumseh. Mr. Keyser was again married, to Elizabeth Shafer, and died at his home in 1878, at the age of fifty-two years. Intelligence, good judgment and tact were qualities that went to make up the successful buyer and seller of stock he proved himself to be. A life-long Democrat, unswerving in his convictions, he merited and enjoyed the confidence of those who knew him. He was Commissioner of Highways for several years, the duties of which office he faithfully performed. We now return to the one whose name adorns the head of this article. Reared at home, surrounded with home love, with educational facilities, eagerly taken advantage of, coupled with a fertile mind, we have here a practical, strong man, with a well rounded character. In his early life school teaching engaged his attention for several years. He selected as a bride Miss Emma Welch, who was born in Franklin Township, December 19, 1853, and is the daughter of William Welch, now living in Clinton. Her father was formerly a successful farmer in Franklin, where his wife died several years ago. Mr. Keyser first owned a farm of fifty-seven acres and located there in 1874. He removed from there to the old homestead after the death of his father and remained there until he removed to his present home in 1883. Mrs. Keyser was reared and married in Franklin Township, and became the mother of four children, one of whom is deceased. The others are named Leora E., Leon K., and Ethel May. Mr. and Mrs. Keyser are members of the Presbyterian Church at Tecumseh, and Mr. Keyser is now bearing the honors of School Inspector and Justice of the Peace, while he has held other positions of trust, always with credit to himself and satisfaction to the community. He is a progressive, intelligent and popular young man, Democrat in politics, but able to see in political principles more than partyism means."

          9. James Updike, Jr. From Portrait and biographical album of Lenawee County, Mich., containing full page portraits and biographical sketches of prominent and representative citizens of the county, together with portraits and biographies of all the governors of Michigan and of the presidents of the United States, published by Chapman Brothers, 1885, p. 249, 250: "JAMES UPDIKE, JR. The finely appointed little farm of eighty acres which occupies a portion of section 13, Franklin Township, became the property of the subject of this sketch in 1875, and he has since bent his energies to its improvement and cultivation, with most admirable results. The proprietor is a gentleman of more than ordinary intelligence and good taste, and while having a proper respect for the wherewithal to make life comfortable, has embellished his homestead with the various features which render it one of the most attractive spots in the township. The buildings are of modern style, the fields are fenced in a neat and substantial manner, and everything about the premises is kept in first-class order, nothing allowed to go to waste or become an offense to the eye. Around the residence are fruit and shade trees with a fine orchard in the rear, while the live stock and machinery give evidence of the care and thoughtfulness of the proprietor. Our subject, the son of one of the earliest pioneers of this county, first opened his eyes to the light in the primitive log cabin, which was the first dwelling of his parents in Tecumseh Township, and which was located upon land which had been but slightly cultivated before his father took possession of it. The latter, also James Updike, a native of New York State, was reared to manhood in his native county, and married Miss Belinda Hause, whose birthplace was not far from the early home of her husband. They continued in the Empire State until after the birth of three children, when they came to Michigan and located upon the land which they occupied until retiring from active labor. The parents of our subject came to this county prepared to meet hardships alnd difficulties, and proved themselves equal to the emergency. They succeeded in building up a comfortable home, occupying the log cabin but a few years and then removing into a good frame dwelling. The father was a man of excellent judgment, kind and generous as a neighbor and friend, and became known as one of the most thorough and successful farmers of Tecumseh Township. He is still living, and makes his home with his son Martin G., a resident of Tecumseh Township. He is now over eighty-four years of age, having been born Oct. 1, 1803. During his residence of over forty years in this county he has made many warm friends, and has abundant reason to feel that his life and labors have not been in vain. The wife and mother departed this life at the homestead Nov. 30, 1873, when about sixty-five years old. Both parents were devoted members of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the days of their youth and strength, and the father is still identified with the old society. James Updike, Jr., was the eighth in a family of ten children, four sons and six daughters. Of these, three sons and two daughters are living and residents of this county. James, in conmmon with his brothers and sisters, remained under the home roof and availed himself of the instruction afforded at the district school. Upon reaching manhood he was married, April 2, 1873, at the home of the bride in Tecumnseh Township, to Miss Atlanta A., daughter of John T. and Caroline H. (Thompson) Bates. Mr. and Mrs. Bates were natives of New York State and were married in Cortland County, where their three children were born, the wife of our subject being the youngest of the family. Her birth took place Nov. 5, 1853, and she was fifteen years of age when her father came to Michigan and located on a farm in Tecumseh Township. The mother had died in Cortland County, N. Y., in 1863, at the age of thirty-seven years. Mr. Bates subsequently married Miss Salina Coyle, who accompanied him to the West and remained here until after the death of Mr. Bates, which took place in the village of Tecumseh, July 31, 1877, when he was sixty-three years of age; Mrs. B. then returned to New York and is now a resident of Homer, that State. Mr. Bates was a man of much force of character, and became quite prominent in the politics of the county. He affiliated with the Republican party and with his estimable wife, was a member in good standing of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The wife of our subject continued with her father until her marriage, in the meantime receiving a good education and developing those elements of character which have constituted her a true wife and mother. Of her union with Mr. Updike there have been born two sons—Earl B., Dec. 7, 1876, and Lucius C., Dec. 29, 1878. Mr. Updike, politically, uniformly votes the Republican ticket. By good management and industry he has accumulated a competence and has something laid by for a rainy day."

                Marshall Miller Parks, M.D. (1918-2005)
                "The Father of Pediatric Ophthalmology"
                2. Marshall Miller Parks (6 Jul 1918 - 25 Jul 2005) was an American ophthalmologist known as "the father of pediatric ophthalmology".
                   Parks was born in Old Mission, Michigan to Ruth and Reuben Parks. In 1939, he earned a BS from Illinois College and in 1943 graduated from the Saint Louis University School of Medicine. His success in medical school gained him induction into Alpha Omega Alpha Society.
                   During World War II, Parks served as a medical officer on destroyers in the United States Navy, including the USS Gamble and USS Terror during the battle of Iwo Jima.
                   Parks studied under the guidance of Frank D. Costenbader, the first ophthalmologist to dedicate his practice solely to the care of children. At Children's Hospital in Washington, D.C., now known as the Children's National Medical Center, they began the first ophthalmology fellowship training program of any subspecialty. This evolved from the rotation of Heed Fellowship ophthalmologists who had trained with Costenbader for many years. The first Children's Hospital of Washington fellow was Leonard Apt in 1959.
                   Parks' scientific contributions include:

                • Elucidation of monofixation syndrome
                • Description and refinement of numerous eye muscle surgical techniques, particularly the fornix incision approach to strabismus surgery
                • Recognition of the benefits of very early strabismus correction (by age 1 year)
                • Innovation in surgical techniques for pediatric cataracts
                   From 1974 to 1975, Parks was the first president of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus, a professional association of which he was a founding member. In 1982, he was president of the American Academy of Ophthalmology.
                • Chairman, Department of Ophthalmology at the Washington Hospital Center and the ChildrenÕs National Medical Center
                • Founder, President and Chairman of the Board, National Children's Eye Care Foundation
                • Director and Chairman, American Board of Ophthalmology
                • Director and Chairman of the Board, The Foundation of the American Academy of Ophthalmology
                • Advisory Council for Ophthalmic Surgery of the American College of Surgeons
                • Chairman, Scientific Committee of the Retina Foundation of the Southwest
                   Awards:
                • Founder of the Costenbader Society
                • Recipient of the Lucien Howe Medal from the American Academy of Ophthalmology
                • Senior Honor Award from the American Academy of Ophthalmology
                • Life Achievement Award and the Laureate Recognition Award 2004 from the American Academy of Ophthalmology
                • Superior Public Service Award from the US Naval Department
                • John Carroll Society Medal
                • Best Ophthalmologist in America award from Ophthalmology Times
                • Leadership Award from The National Eye Care Foundation
                • Leslie Dana Gold Medal from the St. Louis Society for the Blind
                • Induction into the Knights of Malta
                • Vicennial Medal from Georgetown University
                • Arthur Linksz Award from the International Strabismological Society
                • Professional Service Award, the Society for the Prevention of Blindness

                   Perhaps Parks' greatest legacy are the 160 fellows he trained in pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus. Many of these former fellows have gone on to leadership positions within the field themselves.Dr. Kenneth Wright, a former Parks fellow and current Director of Pediatric Ophthalmology Research and Education at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, published a tribute to Dr. Parks in the medical text Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, calling him "the driving force that has led to the development and maturation of our specialty, pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus."
                   He travelled extensively, leading opthalmologic seminars worldwide, and was a pioneer in enhancing opthalmologic practice in the Eastern block, especially in the Soviet Union, during the thaw in relations between the Eastern Bloc and the United States. One story he told was of being allowed to use a secret subway tunnel between East and West Berlin to travel between the two zones to avoid the checkpoints. He was a patriot and loyal American.
                   Parks and his late wife, Angeline Miller Parks, raised eleven children. Following the death of his first wife, Parks and Martha McSteen Parks married and resided in Washington, D.C. for 14 years prior to his death.

          Lyman Hause & Family
          Lyman Hause (1843-1910)
          8. Lyman E Hause (1843-1910) fought in Company F, 26th MI Infantry during the Civil War, served in NYC during the "draft riots," was present at the Appomattox Court House when CSA General Lee surrendered to US General Grant in 1865. Copied from Lenawee Co. records of 1888: "Lyman E. Hause, a prominent farmer and old resident of Ridgeway Township, resided on section 4, where he owns a fine property of eighty acres, which is known as the old Hause homestead. Mr. Hause became the owner of this property in 1878, since which time his skillful management has resulted in greatly improving it. Although incurring a considerable debt at the time of his purchase, his energy and industry will soon enable him to clear it of all encumbrance. Our subject was born where he now resides. Dec. 21, l841 and is the son of Sanford Hause, who was born and reared in Seneca County, N. Y., where he grew to manhood and selected Miss Lydia Swarthout for his companion in life. She had been reared in the same neighborhood, and surrounded by similar influences as her husband. The parents continued to reside on a farm in Seneca County until their household was increased by the birth of four children, when, feeling the necessity for better opportunities to use the limited means at their command, they decided to join the tide of emigration which was then setting toward Southern Michigan and which place accordingly became their home more than fifty years ago. The country was then in its primitive condition, and the settlement below the Ridge, in Ridgeway Township, had few inhabitants other than the wild game and animals which the settlers found there upon their arrival. This section was then very low and flat, being thought by many to have originally formed a part of Lake Erie. The land was exceedingly wet and muddy, so much so that it was known as 'the Muddy Swamp,' and was greatly dreaded by travelers. The elder Hause took up his home on this flat land, building himself a log hut on the principal road. When travel began to increase, he enlarged his original cabin and converted it into a public house, known in those times as a tavern, which he operated for some years successfully and gained the reputation of being a genial landlord. The muddy condition of the roads contributed to his prosperity, as it frequently necessitated delay on the part of travelers, and he kept many of his guests two nights. Travelers would get within a mile or so of the house, and leaving their wagons in the muddy road, would proceed to the tavern and put up, in order to give their worn-out teams a chance to recuperate. The next day they would not get very far on the other side of the hotel, and would return to the house and spend another night of comfort and good cheer. An incident told by one of the guests who stopped it this wayside inn will serve to illustrate the condition of the primitive roads in that section. The author of the story was a real Yankee, and some allowance should perhaps be made for the exercise of his imagination. As he was coming through the swamp, so he says, and was nearing the tavern, he saw a hat, as he supposed, lying on the ground. He reached down from his animal, which was sinking deep into the bog, to pick up the hat, but was told by a voice from under it to let it alone, as the wearer was all right, since he had a good horse under him. The meat supplied for Father Hause's guests consisted chiefly of venison. which was prepared by the landlord's faithful wife. Sanford Hause lived to a ripe old age, and died Feb. 15, 1885. He filled the office of Supervisor for several years, and was many times elected Justice of the Peace, being known for many years by the familiar name of 'Squire Hause'. He was a charter member of the First Christian Church of Ridgeway, of which his wife, who still survives, is a member, as was also her daughter, Mrs. Coryell, of Ridgeway, who is now deceased. The only opportunities for education which our subject enjoyed were those derived from the common schools of his neighborhood, enlarged by his own observation and a general reading of good books and periodicals. He was a soldier in the Iate war, having enlisted Aug. 12, 1862, in Company F. 26th Michigan Infantry, commanded by Capt. Saviers, which became a part of the Army of the Potomac. Company F, however, was detached and assigned to guard duty during the whole three years of service, at Alexandria. Va. Our subject thus saw little fighting, but was exposed to many physical dangers and hardships, from which he contracted a fever and other forms of disease, which have somewhat impaired his health. He was honorably discharged at Jackson, June 14,1865, and upon his return home he resumed his agricultural pursuits, in which he has been engaged ever since. Mr. Hause has been twice married. his first wife being Miss Emma Pocklington, to whom he was united Feb. 17, 1866, at Ida Station, Monroe Co., Mich. She was a native of Yorkshire, England, born about 1846, and when a mere child came to this country with her parents, who settled in Ridgeway Township, this county, where they are still living, on a pleasant little farm. By her union with our subject she became the mother of three children--William S., Irva and Emma--all of whom are still living at home. She died at the birth of the last child, Sept. 23, 1875. Mr. Hause was married a second time, to Miss Caroline Kniffen, who was born in Seneca County, N. Y., Sept. 13, 1839, and came to Lenawee County, Mich., with her parents while yet a child. She is the daughter of Isaac L. and Eliza (Fowle) Kniffen, who were married in Seneca County, the place of their birth. They came to Michigan in 1843, locating on a farm in Ridgeway Township, where the mother is still living at a good old age. She was deprived of her faithful partner in the year 1881. Both were charter members of the First Christian Church of Ridgeway. To Lyman and Caroline Hause one child has been born, a son, Clarence. Our subject and wife are active members and workers in the Christian Church, while in politics Mr. H. is a Prohibitionist." Children of Lyman and Emma Pocklington (1844-1875) were:

            a. William S Hause was born in 1867 in Lenawee, Michigan, and married Mary B. (b. 1873). He died on 10 May 1940 in Clinton, Lenawee, Michigan.

She died on 18 January 1848 in Reading Township, Hillsdale County, Michigan and was buried in North Reading Cemetery, Hillsdale County, Michigan. For a history of their family, click here. The children then grew up in Michigan with Wright and their stepmother, Romina (Foster) Redding. Those children were:

          1. Henry E. Redding (Hawes) was born between 1827 and 1831 in New York. Henry was born in New York but moved with his parents to Michigan around 1835. They lived in Lenawee County for a short time and then moved to Reading Township, Lenawee County, Michigan. Wen Henry was 24 years old, he married Lydia Ransom, daughter of Jason Ransom and Clarissa last name possibly Ressie, on 31 August 1853 in Branch County, Michigan. Lydia was born 1834 or 1835 in New York. She died on 10 September 1896 in Miller Township, Phelps County, Missouri. Henry joined the Union army during the Civil war. Military record: Redding, Henry E., Algansee. Enlisted in Company M, Fifth Cavalry, Aug. 12, 1862, at Algansee, for 3 years, age 31. Mustered Aug. 30, 1862. Deserted at Detroit, Mich., Nov. 5, 1862. Sometime between the end of the Civil War in 1865 and the summer of 1870 Henry and his family moved back to Michigan, settling in Tuscola County. They could not return to Branch County, where they had been living before the war because if the army would have been looking for him, the first place they would have looked was Branch County. (The sentence for desertion would have been hanging or firing squad.) The family name changes here from Redding to Hawes. Henry E. Redding changed his name to Henry E. Hawes and also changed the names of his wife and children to Hawes. 1870 Elkland Township, Tuscola County, Michigan: Henry 48, farmer, $1200 in real estate, born in New York; wife Lydia 36, born in New York. 1880 Elkland Township, Tuscola County, Michigan: Henry, 53, farmer, born in New York; wife Lydia 46, born in New York. Henry probably changed his name to Hawes because it was his mother's maiden name. His children:

            a. George W. Redding was born 1854 to 1855 in Michigan. He died (date unknown). He is listed as 5 years old on the 1860 Alagansee Township, Branch County, Michigan census but not on the 1870 Elkland Township, Tuscola County, Michigan census with his parents.

According to Alcona County History, What's In A Name, "Hawes, Frank, early settler who provided wood for the railroad fuel for Alger Smith railroad." Hawes Township, incorporated in 1893 in Alcona County, was named after Frank. According to booklet entitled "Early Pioneers", "Hawes township was named for Frank Hawes who provided wood and water for railroads throughout the area. He had the job of removing the tracks when the railroad was abandoned." He died on 16 Feb 1933 in Cooks, Schoolcraft, Michigan, and is buried at Cooks Cemetery. His children:

        III. Jesse J. Hause was born on 23 June 1808 in Wayne or Ovid Township, Seneca County, New York. He died on 14 November 1888 in Williamston, Ingham County, Michigan. Jesse married Sally Ann Swarthout on February 2, 1827 in Steuben County, New York. They may have been the last Hauses to live on Hause Hill, leaving for Michigan in 1835. Jesse was one of the first settlers in Livingston County, Michigan, arriving there in 1837 with brother Sanford. Census records: Jesse was living in Putnam Township, Livingston County, Michigan in 1870. We learn of their life in the Michigan wilderness through Sally's obituary in the Watkins Express in 1900: "The subject of this sketch was born in 1806 on the farm on the shore of Lake Waneta in Tyrone, now owned by James Ellwood, and died at her home in Putnam, Livingston county, Mich., July 2, 1900. She was the oldest of a family of eight children born to Ralph Swarthout and, Jane Bennett who were about the first young people married in Tyrone.
        Her father was among the many who went to the defence of their country in the war with Great Britain in 1812.
        Shortly after his return he sold his farm on the lake shore and bought a farm on Hause Hill now owned by Mr. Sprowl, where his daughter grew to womanhood.
        In 1827 she was united in marriage to Jepe (sic) J. Hause, with whom she lived three score and two years before death parted them. In early womanhood she experienced religion and united with the Barrington (now Wayne) Baptist church, her husband uniting with the church at the same time and place. Shortly after marriage they settled on a small tract of land (twenty acres) at Rogers' Corners, Hause Hill, where they lived until 1835. That year they sold out and went to the territory of Michigan. June 5, 1836, they moved onto a quarter section in the town of Putnam, Livingston county, Mich., where she lived until her death, a little over sixty-four years. When they settled in their Western home their nearest neighbor was three miles away and the nearest place to get provisions was Detroit, fifty-five miles away, and no roads but Indian trails. Their home was a log cabin surrounded by a dense forest where the red man roamed at will, and the nights were made hideous by the howl of the wolf, the scream of the wildcat and lynx and the screech of the panther. Often in those days did she at night open the door and throw brands of fire out to scare the wild animals away.
        Few live to see the great change from territory to state that she has seen, and fewer still have passed through the trials and perils of pioneer life that it has been her lot to bear, and never a murmur known. to pass her lips—a noble woman, ever relying upon God, with strong faith that He forsaketh not those that trust in Him. Ever ready with heart and hand to help transform her forest home into beautiful and fertile fields and the log cabin into a commodious residence—a home where all were welcome—she lived to enjoy the fruits of her labor, and was the mother of six children, five sons and a daughter. All grew to man and womanhood, but two of her children have gone before her, her daughter and one son. She leaves to mourn the loss of a loving and faithful mother four sons, nineteen grand-children, twenty-two great grandchildren, seven great-great grand-children and a host of friends too numerous to number. Her grandfathers, Bennett and Swarthout, were Revolutionary soldiers.
           Her father and uncles, Abraham and Justice Bennett, went from Tyrone as soldiers in the war of 1812. Three sons and sixteen nephews were in the war of the rebellion, none that came out alive serving less than three years in the service. Gershom Swarthout, her brother, is the only one now left of her brothers, and her sisters have all gone before her."

I walked about three miles to a country school which had ten grades ... I went through the tenth grade at North School and my father thought that was enough because he had only finished the fifth grade. I stayed home one year and the next year (1921) when I was eighteen, I felt I had the right to go on to Lakeview High School. A friend helped me find a place where I could work for my room and board. The family's name was Meeche and they ran the village hardware store. I was so happy to be back in school. I loved to study." On 18 Jun 1923 she married Charles Cecil Cliffe (1904-1958) in Carson City, Montcalm, Michigan. "Charlie, my husband, died [of cancer] in 1958.

She died in that surgery and is buried in the Carson City cemetery where Floyd had a lot and three babies buried. This was during the depression years (1934) and we took her there because we couldn't afford to buy a lot in the Lakeview cemetery. I'll always remember when they wheeled Nanette off to surgery that last day. I told her, 'They won't let me go with you, Nanette, but the Lord Jesus will go with you.' Her reply was, 'I know He will, Mother.'" She died on 11 Nov 1934 in Lansing, Ingham, Michigan.

Volume III, the Western Historical Association, 1922, The Lewis Publishing Company, Chicago, ILL: "NORMAN S. HAWES—This veteran soldier of the Union has been identified with the citizenship of Riverside more than thirty years, and the business which he founded here is still continued by one of his sons.
             Mr. Hawes was born at Reading, Hillsdale County, Michigan, October 28, 1842. His family name was written in the record of births as Hause, and it is said that when he was a boy of about fifteen he proposed to his father that they change the spelling to Hawes, which was done, though his uncles and other members of the family still continue the old spelling.
             The record of the Hause family runs back to William Hause, who was born February 24, 1750. He married Martha Wood, who was born May 4, 1753, and died September 8, 1818. Of their fourteen children William Hause, Jr., was born November 22. 1781, and died January 2, 1825. April 7, 1804, he married Esther Sanford, who was born September 22, 1785.

Hause, was the father of the old soldier and Riverside resident. Heman C. Hause was born May 13, 1813, and died August 11, 1872. On November 26, 1832. he married Maria Elvira Bacon, who died May 20, 1852. The second wife of Heman Hause was Adaline L. Holt.
             Norman S. Hawes was the fifth in a family of seven children. His brother Edward R. was a Union soldier and died in the service. Another brother, Andrew J., enlisted in the Eleventh Michigan, but was rejected on account of age, and subsequently enlisted in the Seventeenth Michigan Infantry and served until discharged on account of disability. He finally joined Battery D of the First Michigan Light Artillery, and was in service until the close of the war.
             Norman S. Hawes received his education in the schools of Litchfield, Michigan, and the country schools of Branch County, and Was identified with the work of his father's farm until he joined the army in September. 1861. His military service is compiled from the official account drawn up by the Soldiers and Sailors Historical and Benevolent Society. He was a member of the famous First Regiment. Michigan Light Artillery Battery D, under command of Capt. Josiah W. Church and known as Church's Battery. Norman Hawes enlisted September 17, 1861. from Branch County to serve three years. He was mustered in at White Pigeon, Michigan, September 17th as a private in Battery D, commanded successively by Capt. William W. Andrews, Capt. Alonza F. Bidwell and Capt. Josiah W. Church. This battery was organized in White Pigeon and mustered in September 17th and attached to the Fourteenth Army Corps. It was on duty at Camp Robinson and Louisville, Kentucky, until January, 1862, and then went by l)oat down the Ohio and up the Cumberland to Spring Hill, south of Nashville, Tennessee. Mr. Hawes was taken ill and sent home on a discharged furlough, but rejoined his battery after the battle of Stone River in the concluding days of the year 1862. The battery was then ordered to Triune, where it remained several months, until the advance of Rosecrans on Chattanooga. The first engagement on his return was at Hoover's Gap and then at Winchester, Tennessee, where the raiment remained a few weeks. Then crossing the Tennessee River at Stevenson, Alabama, it advanced over Lookout Mountain down into the Chickamauga Valley. In September 1863, the battery was assigned to the First Brigade, Third Division. It reached Growers Ford on the Chickamauga September 18th and participated in the great battle of that name on the following day, rendering conspicuous service, no battery in that memorable battle being handled more skillfully or doing greater execution. The battery occupied Fort N^ley at Chattanooga. In November following the battery assisted in shelling the enemy on Lookout Mountain when General Hooker was advancing across the face of the mountain, and also participated in the assault on Missionary Ridge November 25th. From March until December, following the battery was at Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and then was sent back to Nashville, Tennessee, where they remained in camp during the winter. The following spring they marched to Murfreesboro and occupied Fort Rosecrans during the remainder of the war.
             Norman S.

          1. William Hause Avery was born on 19 Nov 1837 in Hillsdale, Hillsdale County, Michigan; He fought during the Civil War with Co. D, 18th Michigan Infantry; Residence at enlistment: Allen, Michigan; Enlisted as a Private on 31 July 1862 at the age of 25; He received a disability discharge on 21 March 1864 at Camp Nelson, Kentucky. William died on 28 Apr 1923 in Sawtelle, Los Angeles County, California. Biography in History of Butler County, Kansas, by Vol. P. Mooney, 1916, Pages 404-406: "William H. Avery, justice of the peace of El Dorado, is a Civil war veteran and a Butler county pioneer. Mr. Avery was born in Hillsdale, Mich., November, 19, 1837, and is a son of Horace B. and Mary (Hause) Avery, the former a native of Steuben County, New York and of New England stock, and the latter of Pennsylvania, and a descendant of Pennsylvania Dutch. The Avery family came from Vermont to New York State and Ebenezer Avery, grandfather of William H., was the founder of the family in New York. Horace B. Avery, and his wife, the parents of William H., removed from Steuben County, New York, to Michigan and spent most of their lives in Branch and Hillsdale Counties, that State. H. B. Avery died at Pontiac, Ill., and the mother died at Hillsdale, Mich., in 1857.
             "William H. Avery is one of seven children born to his parents, as follows: William H., the subject of this sketch; C. F., a Civil war veteran who served in Company B, Eleventh regiment, Michigan infantry, and now resides at Pontiac, Ill.; D. S. was also a Civil war veteran and served in the same company as O. F. and was wounded at the battle of Chickamauga, now living at Pontiac, Ill.; D. C. also served in the same company and regiment, was captured, and confined in Libby prison, contracting rheumatism from exposure, from which he never recovered and is now deceased; Mrs. Emily V. Swartout, a widow, residing at Bancroft, Mich.; Mrs. Anne Jeanette Austin, a widow, residing at El Dorado, Kans., and Mrs. Ella Withington, a widow residing at Detroit, Mich.
             "Mr. Avery was reared to manhood in Hillsdale County, Michigan, and attended the public school. He was brought up on a farm and thus became familiar with that line of work, and in early life learned the stonemason's trade, and worked at that occupation until July 31, 1862, when he enlisted at Hillsdale, Mich., in Company D, Eighteenth regiment, Michigan Infantry. His regiment served with the army of the Cumberland, and after participating in a number of skirmishes, they took part in the battle of Nashville. Mr. Avery was thrown from his horse and his spine so severely injured that later he was placed in the invalid corps and detailed to duty in the quartermaster's department and served until after the close of the war, receiving his honorable discharge in July, 1865.
             "Mr. Avery was married February 21, 1860, to Miss Mariah A. Hall, a native of New York who was reared and educated in Michigan. Mr. and Mrs. Avery passed their golden wedding anniversary six years ago and bear the distinction of having been married longer than any other couple in Butler County. To Mr. and Mrs. Avery were born two children, Ulysses Sherman and Hattie L., the latter dying at the age of sixteen years. Ulysses Sherman married Maggie Dean, a Butler County girl, now deceased. Two children were born to Ulysses Sherman Avery and wife: Anne M., who was educated in private school and is a graduate of El Dorado High School, now serving her second term as clerk of the District Court of Butler County, and Elizabeth, a student in the El Dorado High School. The mother of these girls died when the younger was about a year old, and the children were reared and educated by their grandparents and they seem more like the children of Mr. and Mrs. Avery than their grandchildren.
             "William H. Avery is a Kansas pioneer in the fullest sense of the term. He came to this State, or rather territory, in i860, and at that time there was not a mile of railroad in the territory of Kansas. Mr. Avery came as far as St. Joseph, Mo., by rail, having started originally for Pikes Peak, but about the time he reached St. Joseph he heard discouraging news from the Pikes Peak boom and he drifted as far west as where Emporia now stands, the town at that time consisting of three houses, one of which belonged to Preston Plumb who later became United States Senator from Kansas. Mr. Avery went as far west as Little River on a buffalo hunt and has seen the plains when buffalo could be seen as far as the vision reached. In i860 he killed seven buffalo on one trip, and when Mr. Avery first came to Kansas deer could be seen here by the thousands. After remaining here during the summer and fall of i860, he returned to Michigan where he remained until he enlisted in the army, as above stated, and in 1865, after receiving his discharge, he returned to Kansas and located in Clifford Township, Butler County, and was a pioneer of that section of Butler County. He built the first stone school house in Butler County, which was in District No. 21, Clifford Township, and was built in 1872 and is still standing. He built a number of stone dwellings in the early days. Further interesting historical information in reference to Mr. Avery's career in Clifford Township will be found in the chapter containing the history of that township. When Mr. Avery settled in Clifford Township his nearest neighbor was three miles distant and he experienced all the trials and vicissitudes of pioneer life in Butler County. He remained on his Clifford Township homestead until 1887, when he removed to El Dorado. Here he bought out a marble works and conducted that business for two years.
             "In 1890 Mr. Avery was admitted to practice as a pension attorney in the Department of the Interior at Washington, D. C, and since that time has conducted an extensive practice in that specialty of the law. He has been a notary public for a number of years and for twenty-four years has been a justice of the peace in El Dorado, and he has also been a police judge for six years. Mr. Avery is a member of the Grand Army of the Republic, Lew Wallace Post No. 66*, and is past commander of the local order here. He was made a Mason at Lexington, Ky., fifty-two years ago, and for fifteen years has been secretary of the local lodge. He is a Republican and takes an active part in local politics and served as chairman of the Republican county central committee for six years." He is buried at Belle Vista Cemetery, El Dorado.

In 1901, her mother died from a heart ailment while living at the home of her in-laws in El Dorado. Anne's Grandparents, William H. and Maria Avery, raised both Anne and her sister, Myrtle Elizabeth in El Dorado, KS. On May 17, 1917 she married a divorcee, Dr. Lewis David Johnson, in Kansas City, Missouri. The couple later moved to Chanute, KS where he was a surgeon in the hospital he had founded there. They had two daughters but divorced in 1931. She was there at her daughter, Betty Jane [Johnson] Chain's bedside when she died at age 22 from pneumonia. After her divorce she moved to Lawrence, Kansas and lived there until about 1950 when she moved, briefly to Wichita, Kansas and then later to Overland Park, KS where she lived with her daughter, Anne Marie and died in 1965 after an extended illness. She enjoyed bridge and was very active socially in Lawrence, Kansas. She never remarried and kept her married name after divorcing Dr. Johnson, frequently using the name "Mrs. Avery Johnson."

Publication date 1906; Publisher New York, Chicago, The Lewis Publishing Company, p. 406: "Jonas Hawes, son of William and Martha (Wood) Hawes, was born in 1780, at Haverstraw, Rockhill county, New York. He removed to North Hector, Schuyler county, where he resided the remainder of his life. He was a farmer by occupation; in political proclivities, a Whig, and in religious faith, a Presbyterian. In 1812 he was drafted in the war of that year, and furnished a substitute. He married, in 1810, Rebecca Demand, and nine children were the issue of this union.

        I. Dr. Matthias Demond Hawes was born on 28 Nov 1811 in Hector, Schuyler Co., New York. On 24 Apr 1838 he married Isabella McIntosh Palmer (1850-1906) in North Hector. From the Watkins Express, Watkins Glen, NY, dated August 8, 1945: "Happenings 50 years ago -- The notice of the old Barber school house in last week's paper, brings to light two of the very early teachers in that district, Dr. M. D. Hawes and his wife. Mrs. Hawes, whose maiden name was Isabella M. Palmer, taught the school in the year 1834, sixty-one years ago, and her salary was $1.50 a week, and then they paid her twenty-five cents more a week than the usual price, because of her qualities as a teacher. The Doctor taught the school in 1836. He received fourteen dollars a month, being four dollars more a month than the usual price. The doctor is now eighty-four years of age (North Hector)." He was elected Schuyler county coroner in November of 1879, and his name variates between "Hause" and "Hawes" in election documents. From the Watkins Express, Wednesday, June 23, 1886: "Fell Sixty Feet and Still Lives -- We learn from C. O. Squires, that on Sunday morning last, June 20th, Dr. M. D. Hawes of North Hector, had a swarm of bees leave their hive, and they were seen to alight in a tree near the edge of a precipice back of his residence. Not being used to hiving bees, he asked his neighbor, Mr. Sanford Bramble and his son Emmet, to assist him. They hitched a rope to the tree, in order that when it was sawed off, it would fall on the bank. Emmet took hold of the rope, and stood within a few feet of the edge of the precipice. When the tree fell he let loose of the rope, and stepped backward, and, as he has since expressed it, only to realize for a moment that he was falling into the awful chasm. Then all was a blank, until he struck the bottom, 60 feet below, when after a short time he partially regained his senses. His father, after the tree fell, missed the boy, and on looking aver the precipice, discovered him, as he supposed dead. Assistance was sent for, and when reached he was sitting up. He was carried home on a stretcher. Drs. Scutt and Knight were the attending physicians, assisted by Dr. Snow. On examination, it was found that his scalp was badly cut. and an indentation was found in his skull. Aside from these only marks or bruises were found on his shoulders and one side, no bones being broken. The Doctors express hopes of his recovery. His fall was attended with nearly as much risk as Sam Patch's fatal jump, and it is a wonder that he was not instantly killed." Surviving the fall, Matthias eventually died on 20 Jul 1896 in Hector, Schuyler, New York. His children were:

He died of "disease of the stomach" on 24 Feb 1915 and is buried at Seneca Union Cemetery, Valois, Schuyler County, New York, Plot: East Hill-195. From the Watkins Express, dated 03 Mar 1915: "The death of Dr. James P. Hawes of Valois occurred at the People's Hospital at Sayre, Wednesday, February 24, after a lingering illness.

His early education was received in the public school and the select school conducted by Prof. Gillet at Hector, after which he taught school a few terms. In the early 60's he received The an appointment in the Treasury Department at Washington, where he remained about fifteen years. During this time he entered medical college from which he graduated. He practiced medicine in Washington for a number of years and later came to his home in Valois to care for his aged father and mother, where he continued to practice his profession. Dr Hawes was recognized as a very talented man both in his profession and general topics having been connected with many prominent people in both public and private life, which made his reminiscenses very interesting. The familiar figure is gone and will be greatly missed by both the young and old in the community. The funeral was conducted from his late home and interment made in the family lot in the Valois cemetery. He leaves to mourn his death a sister, Miss Belle Hawes, and a brother, W. P. Hawes of Watkins."

          1. Parker Halsey Hawes was born on 28 Nov 1857 in Hector, Schuyler Co., New York. "Clerk of Schuyler County, (he) was born in the town of Hector, this county, November 28, 1857, being the son of Joshua and Elizabeth (Halsey) Hawes. He represents the third generation of the family that has resided in this locality, his grandfather, Jonas Hawes, having removed hither in an early day and made settlement in the town of Hector, where he resided for a number of years, or until his death. The father of our subject was born in Schuyler County, this state, on his father's farm in Hector. He became a member of the firm of Squires, Wilcox and Co., who were engaged in merchandising at North Hector. In 1875 he went to Michigan on a business trip, and died there.* His wife, who still survives him, is a resident of Watkins. While he never became very wealthy, yet he was well-to-do, having through his excellent management and industry accumulated a competency, which enabled him to surround his family with every comfort and give his only child, our subject, an excellent education. In the town of Hector, upon the old homestead of his grandfather, Halsey passed the days of childhood and youth. After spending some years in the public schools he entered Cook's Academy, where his education was completed. On leaving school he came to Watkins and secured a position as clerk for Charles S. Frost, with whom he remained for five years. In 1883 he entered the employ of Durland, Smith and Co., dealers in hardware, with whom he remained in the capacity of bookkeeper until January 1, 1894. In 1893 he was elected to the office of County Clerk, the duties of which he assumed January 1, 1894, for a term of three years. As an official, he is prompt, energetic, faithful and efficient, and the manner in which he is discharging the duties of his office is winning him the approbation of the people of the county. He is a staunch Republican, and never loses an opportunity to advance the interests of his party. On New Year's Day of 1880 Mr. Hawes was united in marriage with Miss Jennie Macrury, daughter of John Macrury, a prosperous farmer of Schuyler County. They are the parents of three children, namely: Edna E., Chester A. and Margaret I. Socially Mr. Hawes is connected with Jefferson Lodge No. 332, F. & A. M.; Watkins Chapter No. 182, R. A. M.; and St. Omar's Commandery No. 19, K. T., of Elmira. With his wife he holds membership in St. James' Episcopal Church, in which he is a Vestryman. He is a man who possesses in a marked degree the confidence and respect of the people of the village and county, for his course in life has ever been upright and honorable."

Mr. Hause was married on the 28th of October, 1841, to Miss Perces F. Noble, who is a native of Enfield, Conn. He is a member of the Baptist Church, and is a gentleman of high standing in the community where he resides."

He was a good conversationalist, a deep thinker, and possessed a keen vein of humor, which made his visits both pleasant and profitable. Besides the daughter, one son, Lodiwick, residing at Minneapolis, and one sister, Mrs. Betsey Wolverton, of Elmira, survive.

            b. Marion Hawes was born on 14 August 1897 in Illinois. She never married, living with her grandparents (1910), mother and stepfather (1920) and then her sister (1930-40), and died on 21 May 1979 in Racine, Wisconsin.

              Robert William Galloway (1919-2007)
              i. Robert William Galloway, Sr. was born on 28 Apr 1919 in Racine, Wisconsin. His biological mother, Mildred Hawes, apparently had him with a man named William Andrew Schmitt (1897-1969), but then placed him for adoption. However, Mildred's mother Belle Olsen-Hawes and her second husband John Galloway (1899-1921), adopted him and re-named him Robert William Galloway. After their deaths he was raised by his biological mother, Mildred, and her husband William Rowley (according to the 1930 and 1940 census). Robert worked much of his way through school washing dishes, and graduated from the University of Wisconsin in 1941. He majored in physics and engineering. Upon graduation, Robert went to work for Western Electric until his retirement in 1981. His initial work was to build or design bombs for the WWII war effort. He married Bette Mae Macemon (1920-2004) on 27 Dec 1943 and initially moved to an apartment outside Chicago. By 1944, they had saved enough money to purchase their first home for $9000 at 510 S Grace St, Lombard, Ill. They had two children, Cheryl (b. 1945) and Robert Jr. Robert Sr. died on 23 Jan 2007 in Palm Coast, Flagler, Florida.

        VII. Joseph Hause was born on 24 Mar 1821 in Tyrone, Steuben, New York. On 18 Nov 1856 he married Nancy B. Purdy (1832-1872). From Genealogy of the Purdy family, 1742-1905, by Alfred B. Hause; Genealogical Society of Utah, 1942: "Nancy B. Purdy was born in the Village of Ovid, N. Y. April 15 1832 and died in the same place Nov. 6 1872. She was married Nov 18 1856 to Joseph Hause, a son of Joseph Hause and Eunice Rogers Hause, who was born March 24 1821 and died May 18 1864. Joseph Hause was born at Tyrone, N. Y. And was a descendant of John Hause who was born in Germany about 1690. He came to Seneca County about 1850 and engaged in teaching school in which he was successful for a number of years in the towns of Covert and Ovid, and which avocation he followed for a number of years until failing health obliged him to discontinue this calling. At the time of his death he was engaged in the Fire Insurance business." He died on the 18th of May in 1864, in Ovid, Seneca, New York. Joseph Jr. was followed eight years later by Nancy, on November 6, 1872. They had the following children:

          1. Alfred Bolter Hause was born on 15 Nov 1857 in Ovid, Seneca, New York, and died on 2 Jun 1916 in Manhattan, New York. In 1891, he married Susan A Seeley (1857-1901). Alfred co-owned the Hause and Purdy Insurance Agency in Ovid, Seneca County, but spent a great deal of time unearthing his genealogy. Part of the reason he did this may have been that he wanted to learn more about his father and mother, who had passed away while he was young. Then Alfred, Thomas and their younger brother, William (3 Nov 1862 - 2 Mar 1915), were raised by their maternal grandparents, the Purdys. Alfred began his research with a family history written in 1850 by his uncle, Lewis K. Hause (born 6 Aug 1818), as well as the family bible of Albert's grandfather Joseph Hause, Sr. (Both of these sources are now lost.) Then Alfred and distant cousins named James Dwight Hause (a descendant of Joseph Sr.'s brother, William Hause, Jr., and the son in "J.B. HAUSE & SON FURNITURE AND UNDERTAKING") and Dr. James P Hawes (1839-1915) teamed up to trace the Hause family. A letter detailing their research is at right. Alfred is rumored to have written the entire genealogy in book form, which was published by his brother Thomas, a newspaper owner, but no copies can be found today, although he did publish one on the Purdy family (Hause, Alfred B: Purdy Family, bound manuscript; The New York genealogical and biographical record, Volume 40 Volumes 451-455 of American periodical series, 1850-1900 Author New York Genealogical and Biographical Society Publisher New York Genealogical and Biographical Society, 1909). From the Ithaca Daily News, Monday Evening, June 5, 1915: "Interlaken, June 5 -- The remains of Alfred B. Hause, who died in New York City Friday evening, at the age of 59 years, were brought to his former home in Ovid, yesterday morning, for burial. Mr. Hause was born in Ovid and had always lived there until about twelve years ago, when he received an appointment as special agent of the New York State Lunacy Commission, with an office in New York City, where he has since resided. He was a past master of Union Lodge, F. & A. M., of Ovid, a past high priest of Ovid Chapter and a member of Geneva Commandery. He leaves a wife and a brother, Thomas P. Hause, of this village."

          Thomas Purdy Hause (1860-1929)
          2. Thomas Purdy Hause was born on 29 Feb 1860 in Seneca, New York. On 6 Apr 1881, he married Jessie E Frantz (1863-1936) in Ovid, Seneca Co. On July 23, 1887, 27-year-old Thomas, a printer for the Ovid Gazette, struck out on his own and published the very first copy of the Interlaken (formerly Farmer) weekly newspaper—originally called the Saturday Morning Review. In 1892, after a successful 15 years, Hause redubbed the newspaper the Farmer Review, named for the village of Farmer. In 1904, the village of Farmer itself was renamed Interlaken. Hause again responded, replacing the Farmer Review masthead soon after with the Interlaken Review. It's been in continuous publication ever since. Thomas also served as mayor of Interlaken from 1909 to 1911, was president of the local school board in 1897, worked as second assistant foreman in the local fire department—Cataract Engine and Hose Company No. 1, and was master of the Farmerville Lodge No. 183 in 1901. He died on 24 Jan 1929. "THOMAS P. HAUSE is the proprietor and publisher of the Farmer Review, having founded it and begun its publication in the month of July, 1887, at a time when no paper had been published in the town for several years. It is an eight-column folio, local and independent, devoted to the interests of Farmer, and has appeared every week since its first publication. It has grown to considerable prominence, and has an appreciative and valuable patronage. Mr. Hause was born in Ovid February 29, 1860, the son of Joseph and Nancy (Purdy) Hause, who were also natives of New York. Joseph Hause settled in Seneca County before his marriage, and taught school. The grandfather, also Joseph Hause, was one of the pioneers of Seneca County, and helped to clear up the virgin forests around Farmer. He and an Irishman (ex-Senator Francis Kernan's father) went across Seneca Lake and settled at Tyrone, to which point they presently removed their families. The Hause family trace their ancestry back to William Hause, who settled in Pennsylvania in 1750. After the marriage of the parents in 1856, they resided in Ovid. The father died in May, 1864, and the mother in 1872. They had three children, all sons: Alfred B., Thomas P. and William J. Our subject was born in Ovid, received his education in the village schools, and learned the printer's trade in the office of the Ovid Independent. In 1887 he came to Farmer. Previous to this, in 1881, he was married to Jessie E., the daughter of D. F. Frantz, and they have two children, Nancy E. and Frank E. In politics Mr. Hause is independent, voting for the best men and measures, irrespective of party interests, and by strictly carrying out this principle he has made himself a power. The proportions of his office and the increase of his establishment show how much the people appreciate a candid and honorable newspaper. He began business with a Washington Hand-press, and with but little material on hand, and now has a steam outfit, with a Campbell Country Press, and one of the most complete country job offices found west of New York. He is sole owner of both the plant and the building. Mr. Hause is found among the members of Farmersville Lodge No. 183, F. and A. M., and Seneca Lodge No. 694, I. O. O. F." (Portrait and Biographical Record of Seneca and Schuyler Counties, New York. Chapman Publishing Company, 1895, p. 144, 145) Thomas and Jessie had the following children:

            a. Nancy Ellen Hause was born on 26 Sep 1882 in New York; She died in Mar 1969 in Rochester, Monroe, New York.

          3. William Joseph Hause was born on 3 Nov 1862 in Ovid, Seneca, New York. From Genealogy of the Purdy family, 1742-1905, by Alfred B.

He was married Nov 20 1901 to Lena Myers, a daughter of Henry Myers and Eliza Bryant Myers of the township of Romulus, N. Y. He entered the same office with his brother Thomas and learned the printer's trade and was afterwards in the employ of his uncle James D. Purdy in the clothing business, where he remained for a number of years, later engaged in the grocery business with Mr. T. H. Williamson, under the firm name of Hause & Williamson. He lives at present in the old home of his grandfather where five generations of the Purdy descendants have found a covering. They have one child." He died on 2 Mar 1915 in Ovid, Seneca, New York. On 20 Nov 1901, he married Lena B Myers (b. 1869) and they had:

        XII. William Henry Hause (1829-1878). His obituary in the Watkins Express: DEATH OF WILLIAM HAUSE.—Our citizens were startled on Tuesday morning last, Sept. 4th, by the report that William Hanse was no more. He bad been sick but a few days and no one supposed, not even his family and physician, that his disease was dangerous or likely to prove fatal. He retained his physical strength to the last moment, and only a few minutes before his death, Tuesday morning, raised himself up in bed and placed his feet upon the floor. It is needless to say that the announcement of his decease caused unfeigned sorrow and mourning in our village.
           Like all other men he had his faults, but his good qualities and his generous and sympathetic heart overshadowed all human frailties and made him a valued and useful citizen and neighbor. He was not blessed with a large share of this world's goods, but his heart was ever open to the calls of tbe poor and distressed, and many are the incidents that we could name of his noble sacrifices in behalf of the needy, and generous but unostentatious aid extended to the destitute. He was peculiarly fond of little children, and never tired of caressing and encouraging them and doing such kind offices for them as would make their little hearts glad. The children of Watkins will long remember the name of William Hause and revere his memory.
           The deceased was born in tbe town of Tyrone, Feb. 28th, 1829, and had therefore reached his 49th year. A few years of his early life was spent in the West teaching school. He afterwards became a resident of Dundee, Yates county, where he held a clerkship in a dry goods store for several years.
           In 1853 he married Maria Kinney, a daughter of Judge Henry Kinney, of Dundee. Subsequently he became a resident ot tbe town of Barrington, Yates county, where be spent nine years of his life upon a farm. He held the office of Justice of the Peace in Barrington eight years and was twice elected Justice of Sessions in Yates county. He afterwards returned to Dundee for a short period, and in 1867 removed with his family to Watkins, where he spent the remainder of his life. He held the office of Justice of the Peace in this town for nearly eight years; his second term would have expired on the first day of January next. He was also twice elected Justice of Sessions in this county, and in all his official career maintained an excellent reputation for tbe fairness of his legal decisions, and for his upright and dignified course in all matters of controversy submitted to him for examination or trial.
           The funeral services will take place today, Thursday, at the Methodist Church in Dundee. Rev. Cameron Mann, rector of St. James's church, of this village, will officiate.
           His remains will be buried in the Dundee cemetery by his Masonic brethren of Dundee Lodge, assisted by many of the fraternity from this county. Mr. John J. Smith of this village will conduct the Masonic services. Deceased leaves a wife and one son, Henry K. Hause, Esq., of the law firm of Evarts & Hause. The bereaved family have the sympathy of a wide circle of sorrowing friends and neighbors.

Matthew married (1) Anna Marie (last name unknown, date unknown) and (2) Johanna Wood on 2 Nov 1831 in Verona, Dane County, Wisconsin. Madison, Dane County and surrounding towns ; being a history and guide to places of scenic beauty and historical note ... early intercourse of the settlers with the indians ... with a complete list of county supervisors and officers, and legislative members, by W. J. Park & Co., 1877. From the chapter, 'Verona,' pp. 571-588, by MacDonald, Donald; Hawes, J. T.; Page 586: ADDITIONS BY J.T. HAWES: "My father and mother and three children moved into the town of Verona on the 7th day of March, 1843. It was a very cold day, with deep snow, which lay on the ground until April, when men went to the town, meeting in sleighs. It was a remarkably long and hard winter, and many cattle starved to death. I well remember instances of men coming fifteen miles to get a load of straw, when we would give them the load and keep them over night. We had moved on to Mr. Samuel Taylor's farm, so had plenty of feed. At this time there was only one other family in the town, Peter Martin's, one mile from us. The next nearest was Joseph Vroman, five miles east, Ed. Campbell seven miles north, and McFadden, seven miles south. We living (sic) on the road from Janesvilleto Mineral Point, and as it was the only house for a long distance each way, having a good barn, something very scarce in those days, it was a regular stopping place for all travelers. Among the notables who used to frequent our house was Judge Irvin, Hons. Moses M. and Marshal M. Strong, Ebenezrt Brigham, of Blue Mounds, George Delaplaine, etc. J.G. Knapp and E.M.Williamson, of Madison, used to make it their home while acting as surveyors in that part of the county. Judge Irvin was always accompanied by his famous horse Pedro, and dog York. My father one winter boarded old Pedro for the judge. If my memory serves me right, the first child born in the town was Ebenezer Collins. He was born in the evening. My mother was present, and early the next morning she was called to attend the birth of Olive Wheeler, a daughter of William A. Wheeler, who lived at Badger Mills. The first religious services in town were held at our house, by the Rev. Salmon Stebbins. He was followed soon after by a Methodist missionary by the name of Bennett, who afterwards took up the less honorable calling of office seeking. About this time we had occasional by the Rev. Matthew Fox, of Fitchburg, a Presbyterian minister; also by his father, who was a Methodist preacher. He was known all over the county as Father Fox, or, as he sometimes styled himself in his jocular way, 'Ould Daddy Fox.' In the summer of 1845 the settlers built a log school house on the northwest quarter of section 22, but when they got the body up, they decided it was not located in the proper place, and so sold it to my father, who took it down and moved it on his farm, on section 13, which he was just beginning to open. The next year they erected a log school house on the west edge of what is now known as the Dane county poor farm. The first school was taught by Amy Thornton, in the winter of 1846-47, and I was one of her scholars. It was the custom in those days for the teacher to board around, and the big boys to take turns in building the fires. My turn came every Monday morning, and I remember getting a frozen ear on one of those occasions. The first summer school was taught by Miss Noyes, and the second winter term by Dr. Waterbury. He being the only physician in that part of the country, was frequently called away on professional duties, and at such times he placed the school in charge of some one of the big boys, quite a number of whom were grown men. One of the number, an Englishman by the name of Baker, who was sometimes called upon to preside, caused a good deal of merriment one day by telling some one in a class of spelling, who had left out the letter 'n' in a word, that 'there was a 'hen' in there somewheres.' In 1843 my father was elected the first justice of the peace in the town, and my brother, Harvey L. Hawes, the first constable. The same year my father was elected a supervisor of the town. Among his duties were the laying out and repairing of roads. This office he held for many years. In 1846 we moved on our own farm, and entertained travelers in our little log house. A sign over our door with the word BEER in large letters, caused considerable attraction, as it was, for many miles around, the only thing of the kind outside of Madison. As the town has filled up fast with settlers, it will be difficult to follow its history further." Matthew married (1) Johanna Wood (1794-1831) and they had the following children:

        I. Susan Hause (1814-1814).

        II. Jane Hawes (1815-1815).

        Jasper Hawes's headstone was discarded in the 1960's by the Ventura City Council to make way for a dog park, but the stone was stored away by a concerned citizen. There is no current memorial for Jaspar T. Hawes, and his line has ended (at least, no one could be located). However, Sharon Troll, a volunteer trying to reclaim the park, contacted this author and we have requested that Memorial Program Services (41B) in the Department of Veteran's Affairs re-install a flat bronze marker with raised letters in Jasper's name and a Union Civil War emblem. His name will also be on an information area memorial at the site.

During the Civil War, he served in the 49th Regiment, Wisconsin Infantry Company as a Private, enlisting on 13 Feb 1865. He received a disability discharge on 30 Sep 1865. Jasper died on 7 Jul 1911 in Ventura, Ventura, California. In 1969, the City of Ventura, California abandoned its two city-owned pioneer cemeteries: St. Mary's Catholic Cemetery, founded in 1862, and the adjacent Ventura Protestant Cemetery, founded in 1889. These two cemeteries located at main and Poli Streets in Ventura, were converted to a public park. The remains over 3,000 of the city's pioneer residents are still buried on the property, but the headstones and monuments were disposed of in a landfill in the nearby Santa Clara River. Research by Edson T. Strobridge, Civil War research historian in San Luis Obispo, CA. has so far identified fifty-five Civil War veterans originally buried in these historic burial grounds. There still remain the graves of forty seven veterans of the Civil War including many of their wives and children, in what has become known as Cemetery Memorial Park. Among the more than 3,000 graves remaining is one of a Civil War General and former member of Congress, another, a Confederate Colonel and many others who served their country in time of war. They include seven members of the original 99 men who enrolled in Company C, 1st Battalion, Native California Cavalry originally enrolled in Santa Barbara in April 1864 (when Ventura Co. was still a part) and made up entirely of native Californians, who represented California in the Union Army during the Civil War. This research is ongoing and not yet complete and does not include the names of veterans of other wars, one Medal of Honor winner won during the Indian Wars in 1869. As more information develops and confirmed Mr. Strobridge plans to share it with Mr. Steven Shleder to aid in his mission to gain support in "Restoring St. Mary's Cemetery." "The refusal to restore this and all of the 600+ desecrated headstones to their proper grave locations makes each City Council person, since, culpable for this 3,000 pioneer grave desecration." He adds, "It is not a memorial dog park, it was declared a cemetery of our forefathers by state and federal law." Jasper married Mary Jane Williams (b. 1834) and they had the following children:

          1. Estelle Hawes (b. 1858).

          2. Edith Abigail Hawes (1859-1922).

          3. Mary Hawes (b. 1867).

          4. Frederick Williams Hoover Hawes (1873-1943).

    12. Samuel HAUSE was born on 12 May 1794 in Warwick, Orange County, New York, and married Catherine Howard (1801-1852). According to land records, Samuel purchased property in Ripley, Chautauqua County, New York in 1828, and was living next to a younger brother, Morris Fant Hause. Eventually he and Morris both would move to Wisconson. Samuel and Catherine had the following children:

        I. Silas Hawes was born in 1824 in New York, according to later census and travel documents (the 1825 New York State Census shows Samuel living with a woman and 2 male children. We presume Silas to be one of the boys, but we do not know the name of the other son). Silas emigrated to Argentina and married Matilda Sarmiento (b. 1833) there in January 1856, with the license listing his parents as Samuel Hawes and Caderine [sic] Howard.² It has been passed down that Matilda Sarmiento is the niece of Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, who was president of Argentina from 1868-1874 (they are from the same provincial town of Argentina: San Juan). They had the following children:

          1. Samuel Gregorio Hawes was born in Mar 1857 in San Juan, San Juan, Argentina. He died before 1869 in San Juan, San Juan, Argentina. as he is not on any travel documents or Argentinian archives.

            a. Robert Anthony Hernandez was born on 4 Feb 1878 in Boulder, Colorado. In 1901 he married Edith Lydia Reder (1881-1957) of Poland. He became an electrician in Hollywood, working for Universal Studios. Robert died on 27 May 1955 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California. Robert and Edith had a daughter:

              i. Helen A Hernandez was born on 1 Dec 1904 in California. She married F.M. Paine before 1926. She died on 18 Feb 1980 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles.

            b. Lola E. Herandez was born in Leadville, Lake, Colorado in 1880 and appears on the Federal Census of that year, then disappears from the record.

On 24 Aug 1904, he married (1) Stella Alice Stanley (1886-1967) in Los Angeles, and they had a daughter, Marjory Hernandez aka Stanley (15 Apr 1906 -1989). According to the Los Angeles Times, on 18 Feb 1915, Thu, Page 12, Stella'a divorce decree could not be granted because while Carlos had been caught in a hotel room drinking with another woman, it had been a set-up by a private detective using his own wife, a "stool pigeon." Eventually the divorce was granted. Carlos married again, on 21 Jan 1919 in Los Angeles, to (2) Helen Nancy Smith (1898-1988).

He came to North America in 1880 and married British-born Teresa Lane (1868-1956) on 18 Jul 1887 in Denver, Arapahoe County, Colorado. He was a barber and moved to Fresno, CA. He ended up in a Veterans Home in Sawtelle in Los Angeles. Silas died on 2 May 1925 in Los Angeles, California. He's buried at Los Angeles National Cemetery, 950 South Sepulveda Boulevard Los Angeles, CA 90049, Section 23 Row L Site 2. Teresa never remarried.

          9. Milo Hawes was born in 1865 in San Juan, San Juan, Argentina. After moving with his family to Wisconsin, he moved to Denver, CO, then settled near San Francisco CA. He was murdered by an unknown person, his skull crushed by a large rock and dragged into the bushes on 9 Jun 1889 in Yolo, California. The Sacramento Daily Union, Volume 61, Number 92, 11 June 1889, reported on page one, "The verdict of the jury was that Milo Hawes came to his death at the hands of a party or parties to the jurors unknown—and here rests, at least for the present, the case of one of the most brutal and cowardly murders which ever disgraced the State of California." Milo's brother-in-law, Anthony R. Hernandez, traveled up from Los Angeles and buried Milo at the Sacramento City Cemetery in Sacramento, Sacramento County, California, Plot: 6-89.

          10. Luvina del Carmen Hawes was born about 1868 in San Juan, San Juan, Argentina. She moved with her family to Verona, Dane, Wisconsin, USA. She married David S Murray (Mar 1867 - 22 Oct 1907) of Canada on 16 Apr 1900 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and they moved to San Francisco, CA. She died on 24 Aug 1913 in Oakland, Alameda, California while living with her sister, Josephine Hawes-Allen.

          12. Josephine "Jossie" Ellen Hawes was born on 12 Sep 1873 in Verona, Dane, Wisconsin. On 5 Jul 1917 she married David Allen (b. 1860) of Canada, in Alameda, California. They moved from the San Francisco area to Los Angeles sometime between 1930 and 1935. She died on 10 Sep 1950 in Los Angeles, California.

        Immigration documents from 1869 show the Silas traveled back to the U.S.A. from Argentina with his family. The 1870 United States Federal Census shows that Silas is living on what had been the Samuel Hawes farm. In the 1880 Federal Census the family had moved out of state. The address of this Census is 509 Curtis Street in Denver, Arapahoe, Colorado. Although Silas is not listed, Matilda lists herself as married. Silas disappears from the record. Matilda lived with her children until her death on Los Angeles, CA, before 1893. Despite having so many children, only one of Silas' sons had a son to carry the Hawes name, and he died without children. Of Silas' daughters, only three had children. So this family remained unconnected to the Samuel Hawes line until family historian Derek Foxley found Samuel and Catherine's names as the parents of the groom in marriage records in Argentina. Thus, we now know that the Hause/Hawes line extends all the way to South America!

        II. Lucy Ann Hawes was born on 15 Sep 1827 near Seneca Lake, New York, and died on 10 May 1876 in Dane County, Wisconsin. She married David Richardson. From Biographical Review of Dane County, WI. Chicago: Biographical Review Pub. Co. 1893, Vol II, pp 617-619: "David Richardson was first married Aug. 3, 1852, to Lucy A. Hawes, who was born near Seneca lake, NY, Sept. 15, 1827, and died on the old farm in Wisconsin, May 10, 1876. She was a daughter of Samuel and Catherine Hawes, natives respectively of New York and New Jersey. They came West in about 1849 or 1850, and the mother died in 1850, and the father is still living. Mr. and Mrs. Richardson had five children: Ira married Libby Martin; Adrian M. married Alla Miller; Clara married William Miller; Orrin C.; and one who died when one week old. David Richardson was again married, in 1877, to E. S. Plato, who died two years later. Mr. Richardson, the subject of this sketch, has suffered the privations of pioneer life. During the first year of his married life, only one-fourth of a pound of tea, a half pound of coffee and six pounds of sugar was all of that line of groceries used."

        III. Edward Hause was born in 1829 in New York. On 29 May 1853 he married (1) Sarah Bardison in Dane, Wisconsin. He then married (2) Emma Personn on 23 Sep 1865 in Verona, Dane, Wisconsin, and the Marriage Record lists Samuel Hawes as Edward's father (Wisconsin Historical Society, Madison; FHL microfilm 1,275,924). Edward died in 1876.

          3. James Henry Hawes (Foxley) was born on 10 Aug 1868 in Ruby Valley, Elko, Nevada. (This genetic link was proven through Y-DNA testing of his great-grandson, Derek Foxley, which matched Bob Hause and this author.)

          James Henry's father was killed in a shoot-out when he was only two years old. After that, he was adopted by the family of William Foxley (1831-1906). On 19 Nov 1892 he married (1) Ida May Walker (1872-1894) in Oakley, Cassia, Idaho. They had a son:

            a. James Leslie Foxley was born on 3 Sep 1893 in Oakley, Cassia, Idaho. On 20 Sep 1915 he married Sarah Emma Dayley (1892-1980) in Falls City, Jerome, Idaho. He died on 11 Nov 1982 in Everett, Snohomish, Washington.

        V. Alfred H Hawes was born in Cattaraugus Co. NY, in June of 1833. He married Mahala Algard on 12 Sep 1858 in Dane, Wisconsin. They are living with her parents in the 1860 Census. However, the very same Mahala Algard(t) married George Harrington in Feb 1862, so apparently she and Alfred had divorced. During the Civil War he joined the Union Army in California five days after his brother Albert, in October of 1861, signing up with the 2nd Regiment of the California Cavalry, Company L, as a Private (Film Number: M533 roll 3). But Alfred deserted and joined the Nevada Cavalry, and deserted again, until the war was over.

She had died in 1911 and her husband J.S. Stahl followed in 1917, but his second wife Carrie E Stahl (real name 'Howe" b. 1892 in Mississippi) and her son James W. Stahl (b. 28 Nov 1915) lived there as well. Anna was working as a seamstress in a factory.

She choose to stay and assist with nursing soldiers for 2 years, working under Dorthea Dix.

                1. Arthur Ray Chrysler, Jr. (1923-1945). Arthur's death certificate shows "missing from Dec 12 to July 11/46". Location of death was "in" the St. Clair River. It shows place of death as Walpole Island, Lambton, Ontario but that is where he was found. He was more than likely swept down river from the Port Huron area near his family home as the current in that river is very strong. The death certificate shows burial in Lakeside Cemetery but he is buried with his parents in Downing Cemetery. It also shows that he was a soldier and a note on the application for Arthur's headstone says "Died in the line of duty 13 Dec 1945" which means he could have been on duty with the military at the time of his death. It's possible his date of death may have been assumed as Dec 13, 1945 which is what appears on his gravestone.

    14. Morris Fant HAUSE (HAWES) "was born at Warwick, Orange Co., N.Y., Nov. 12, 1797, and in early childhood removed with his parents, William and Martha (Wood) Hause to Steuben Co., where he remained until about 21 years of age, and during which time he served as a volunteer (though but a boy) in the war of 1812. His father, also a native of New York, participated in the war of the Revolution, and the subject of this sketch was the youngest of numerous family of boys. Mr. Hawes married, May 17, 1818 to Miss Sarah, the eldest daughter of Capt. Nathan Numm Lounsbury, of Rutland, VT. one of Col. Ethan Allen's "Green Mountain Boys" of Revolutionary renown, who reached the remarkable age of 101 years and 8 months, dying at Rutland August 1857. Soon after his marriage, Mr. Hawes moved to Chautauqua Co., N.Y, where he led for some twelve years the quiet, happy life of a prosperous young farmer, cheered and assisted by his loving and ambitious wife, a most loyal young helpmate. Though fitted by birth and education to grace a higher social station, she was ever light-hearted, brave and content, surrounded by her thrifty flock of girls and boys, of whom six were born to them during their residence in that State. About the year 1830, Mr. Hawes, hoping to better the prospects of his growing young family, made another push to the Westward, this time halting in Hillsdale Co. Mich., where he resumed his occupation of farming, and also kept for a time a small hotel, about half way between the villages of Jonesville and Coldwater, on the great stage route between Detroit and Toledo and Chicago. Here he remained until the spring of 1837, when becoming dissatisfied with his success and prospects, and bearing much from returning explorers of the wondrous beauty and fertility of the 'Rock River Valley,' he resolved to make one more advance, and this time to the famed prairies beyond all the great lakes. With Mr. Hawes, to resolve was to act, and with his heroic wife and arms full of babies, he set out for the Territory of Wisconsin, reaching what now is the town of Richmond in August 1837. Here he selected a claim and erected a cabin—the first home of civilization in the township and here, on Jan. 5, 1838, a son was added to his family; the first born in the township, if not in Walworth Co. After a few months spent in improving his land, he sold the claim for $500 and located another, three miles to the eastward, on the town line between Richmond and Whitewater. On a corner of the farm was subsequently built, by Mr. Hawes and some three or four neighbors, the first schoolhouse in the town. The first teacher was paid $1.25 per week. Mr. Hawes' family constituting a majority of all the pupils. Nevertheless, the handful of settlers were in possession of a free school. For twenty years, Mr. Hawes continued to till the acres he had reclaimed, much respected by the growing community, by whom he was retained in the minor offices of the county for nearly the whole time, and by whom he was elected to the first Constitutional Convention, called at Madison Oct. 5, 1846. In 1857 his wife having long been an invalid, and his sons not following the chosen occupation of their father, Mr. Hawes decided to relinquish the cares of a large farm, and removed to Whitewater, where on July 28, 1859, the gentle partner of his busy life folded her weary, loving hands in final rest. Of his family, the eldest, Lucretia, the wife of B.P. Plato, of Rock Co. died in 1866. Lucy, the second, died in childhood, in New York, Lucinda M. is the widow of Joel Clapp, late of Milwaukee; Lucena E. is the wife of William De Wolf, of Whitewater; Lucius J. married Miss Eliza Hunter, of Maquoketa, Iowa and lives at that place; Lucerne E. married Miss Clara Beemer, of Albion, N.Y., and lives at Whitewater; Frances E is the wife of Dr. C.M. Palmer, of Colorado; Francis M. married Miss Jennie Housel, of Owen Co, Ky., and resides at Milwaukee; and Dean M. is the wife of Hiram S. Teall, of the same city. A single incident of Mr. Hawes' career will sufficiently illustrate a strong feature of his character. When chosen to serve as a member of the Constitutional Convention, on arriving at Madison, and before qualifying, he was called home by the serious and subsequently fatal illness of his wife. He was detained so long that upon his return to the convention the duties of that body were virtually completed. He was then urged by his fellow-members to qualify, that he might be properly enrolled and receive his compensation as a member. This he stubbornly refused to do, claiming that he had performed no public duty for which he was entitled to compensation. He died at Whitewater Jan. 13, 1868, in the 71st year of his age. Few words are needed to give to the memory of Morris Fant Hawes its fit place of this State. In all the relations of life he was a just man. With scarce an exception, he was honored and trusted and loved by all who knew him. He was punctilious and persistent in discharge of every moral and business obligation. He lived and open-handed life of usefulness. He died no man's debtor. His name will be honored as long as they live who understand and value the virtue, the heroism, the wisdom and the dignity of the man who shaped the destinies of the proud State of Wisconsin." (From History of Walworth County, Wisconsin, by Brookhaven Press, page 783.) "Morris Fant Hawes was born November 12, 1797 at Warwick, Orange County, New York. When very young his father removed to Steuben County, in the same state, where the son volunteered, although a mere boy, in the War of 1812. On May 17, 1818, young Hawes married Sarah, daughter of Capt. Nathan LOUNSBURY, at Rutland, Vermont, and with his bride started for Chautauqua County, New York, where they lived twelve years, and where their older children were born. In 1830 Mr. Hawes removed his family to Hillsdale, Michigan, where after a year or two he opened a tavern on the Detroit-Chicago road. In 1,837 he determined to migrate to Wisconsin, and in August arrived in Richmond Township, Waiworth County, of which he was the first settler, and which he was elected to represent as a Democrat in the constitutional convention. Mr. Hawes bought land at the Milwaukee land office in 1839, and lived on his farm until 1857, when he removed to Whitewater, and there died January 13, 1868. He was justice of the peace and county commissioner and held several local offices. Although elected to the convention he was unable to attend because of serious illness in his family. His wife had died July 28, 1859. They had nine children." (History of Walworth County; Chicago, 1882, p. 783.)

        I. Lucretia C Hawes married Bradley B Plato on 15 May 1839 in Richmond, Walworth, Wisconsin.

        II. Eunice Lucina Hause was born in 1824 in New York. She married William DeWolf (1821-1905). "WILLIAM DeWOLF, son of Jabez and wife, Thankful FAIRCHILD, was born at Bridgewater, New York, July 21, 1821; came to LaGrange in 1842 and bought a farm on Heart Prairie; in November, 1845, he married Eunice Lucena, daughter of Morris F. HAWES and Sarah LOUNSBURY, of Richmond. In 1852 he became a partner with Lucius A. WINCHESTER in the business of plow-making, and as hardware dealers. About 1878 he built and operated a mill for making wire cloth. He was living in 1906. Mrs. DeWOLF was born in 1824; died February 5, 1904. Of their four children (in 1860) Nettie became Mrs. Henry H. McGRAW, and Mannering M. became an officer of the Custer Rifles." (From the book History of Walworth County Wisconsin, by Albert Clayton Beckwith, 1912. P. 510.) Eunice died on 5 Feb 1904.

        III. Lucerne Edmund Hawes (1829-1915). Among the first to brave the wilds of Walworth county was the Hawes family, members of which have aided very materially in its development during the past three-quarters of a century, for it was in the days of the wide-stretching forest, unused to the ring of the axeman, and the days of the Indian and wild deer when this family emigrated from the old Empire state, through a country of bad roads, across unbridged streams, toiling patiently for weeks until they reached this favored section of the commonwealth of Wisconsin, and, having the sagacity to foresee here a great future, established their home in Walworth county, where they became well fixed through their industry and were well known and influential in the life of the community. One of the best known of the present generation is L. Edmund Hawes, now living in retirement in his pleasant home in Whitewater, after a life of strenuous endeavor. He comes down to us from a pioneer age, and he has lived here to note wondrous changes in everything, taking a leading part in the upbuilding of the county, so that he is today highly honored by all who know him. Mr. Hawes was born in Chautauqua county, New York, August 14, 1829. He is the son of Morris F. and Sarah ( Lounsbury ) Hawes, the father born in Warwick, Orange county, New York, in 1797, and the mother born in Rutland, Vermont, in 1797. They grew up and were married in the East, and in 1837 they emigrated to Walworth county, Wisconsin, locating in Richmond township, squatting on land, and in 1839 they took up three hundred and seventy-five acres. Mr. Hawes walked from Richmond to Milwaukee to attend a land sale, which was then postponed, and he went a second time. He was a successful farmer, although he had hard work clearing and improving his land here from the wild condition in which he found the country. He finally sold his farm, retired from active life and moved to Whitewater, where his death occurred in January, 1868, his wife having preceded him to the grave in July, 1869. They had a family of nine children, of whom L. Edmund, of this sketch, and Dr. Palmer Hawes are the only ones living. Their son, Francis Marion Hawes, whose birth occurred on January 5, 1838; was the first white child born in Richmond township. Politically, Morris F. Hawes, the father, was a Democrat, and was prominent in political affairs, having been a member of the state Legislature in the early days, and he was a justice of the peace for many years. His wife belonged to the Episcopal church. L. Edmund Hawes, of this sketch, went with his parents to Lenawee county, Michigan, and his father kept a tavern between Coldwater and Au Train. He came overland to Walworth county, driving horses to Chicago and two yoke of oxen on to Walworth county, Wisconsin, living in the wagon and camping under trees until a home could be built. The subject grew up on the home farm, which he helped to clear and improve, and he received his education in the public schools, such as there were in those early times. He began a livery business in Whitewater in the year 1852, which he continued successfully for fifteen years, then bought a farm in Whitewater township, two miles from the city, remaining there twenty-nine years. He was very successful as a general farmer and stock raiser, and he added to his original holdings until his place consisted of four hundred acres of well improved and productive land, and he became one of the substantial agriculturists of the county. This land he still retains; however, retired from active life a number of years ago. moved to a pleasant home in Whitewater, where he still resides, enjoying the fruits of his former years of labor. He has bought and sold several valuable places in Whitewater. Politically, Mr. Hawes is a Democrat, but he has never been an aspirant to office, though he was pathmaster a number of years, during which time he built many good roads. Mr. Hawes was married in 1855 to Carrie Beamer, who was born in 1832, and to this union six children were born, namely: Stella, deceased: Harriet married Lincoln Gantt, of Tacoma, Washington; Mabel, wife of Edmund Lanngan, died in 1908; Fred married Catherine Smith and thev have two children, Harold and Charles ; Morris J. married Ida Wagner and they have one child, Edmund; Frank married Margaret Macdonald and they have two children.

            Harriett Hawes Brigham (1921-2010)
            b. Harriett Hawes was born on 5 Dec 1921 in Whitewater, Walworth County, Wisconsin. On 5 Feb 1944 she married Merle O Brigham (1912-1976) at the First United Methodist Church in Whitewater. She died on 12 Feb 2010 in Whitewater, Walworth County, Wisconsin. Her obituary: "Mrs. Harriett (Hawes) Brigham passed away on Friday evening, February 12, 2010, in her beautiful old Victorian home on Fremont Street, the famous one with the three Christmas trees in the windows. She had lived there since 1951, having raised three lovely daughters there with her husband, Merle Brigham, the love of her life. A heroine and a legend in the minds of her six adoring grandchildren, Harriett was 88 years old, a fact that failed to deter her from living every precious day of her dynamic, colorful life exactly the way she saw fit. Even in her final hours, Harriett was spotted all about Whitewater, attending to the daily business of a vibrant lady. While she would have been staunchly opposed to the prospect of such a sudden departure from the life and the people that she loved so much, Harriett was a woman of tremendous faith, and she knew in her heart that her husband, parents, brothers, and so many others would be waiting to meet her at the next stop. Harriett found something to appreciate and admire in each of the enumerable relatives, friends, and neighbors that filled her life and those feelings were clearly mutual. The honored matriarch of her family, Harriett's presence was always felt, even from afar, as her memory will continue to be.
               "Harriett was born on Dec. 5, 1921, in Whitewater, WI, to Maurice and Clara (Scheels) Hawes. She grew up on Fremont Street, four houses down from the cherished home where she would gracefully preside over decades of holidays, get-togethers, and the daily affairs of her family. She married Merle Brigham on Feb. 5, 1944, at the First United Methodist Church in Whitewater. Merle preceded her in death on Dec. 4, 1976. Familiar to generations of Whitewater residents, Harriett was active in the First United Methodist Church of Whitewater, an enthusiastic member of Alpha Club, and a long-serving volunteer at the local polls on voting day. Before retiring in 1988, Harriett served for many years as an administrative secretary at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater campus library.
               "Harriett is survived by her daughters: Mary Quinlan of Reedsburg, WI, Kathleen (Peter) Glaser of Jackson, WI, and Debra (Mark) Brigham-Schmuhl of Whitewater, WI; her grandchildren: Julie (Jason) Quinlan Brame, Patrick Brigham (Sarah) Quinlan, Nicholas Brigham Schmuhl, Lora Glaser, Andrew Glaser, and Melanie Schmuhl; a special niece, Jean Brigham; and a number of others who were important to her life. Harriett was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Merle; brothers, Edmond and Francis Hawes; and son-in-law, Richard Quinlan.
               "Funeral services will be held at 1 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 16, 2010, at the FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH, Whitewater, WI, with burial in the Hillside Cemetery, located in Whitewater. Friends may call at the CHURCH on Tuesday, Feb. 16, from 11 a.m. until the time of the service. As an expression of sympathy, you may wish to consider memorials to First United Methodist Church of Whitewater, the Irving L. Young Library, or the Whitewater Federation of Women's Clubs." (Janesville Gazette, 15 Feb 2010)

            a. Lincoln Donald Hawes was born on 1 Dec 1898 in Whitewater, Walworth, Wisconsin. He died on 4 Dec 1989 in Whitewater, Walworth, Wisconsin. "One Hundred" Percent LOUNSBURY," Source: Mrs. Lincoln D. Hawes, Whitewater, Wis.: "Alma writes 'that she is a descendant of Sarah Lounsbury Hawes, daughter of Nathan Munn Lounsbury and Sarah Pelton. Nathan migrated from Woodbridge, Ct. to Vermont in 1781. He was seven years in the War of Revolution, serving under Gen. Knox and for most of the time was attached to the immediate command of Gen. Washington. He was a man of great physical strength and endurance and attained the age of almost 102 years. At the age of 100, he held a plow for a short time, at a county fair at Rutland.'"—The Lounsbury Tree, a Lounsbury Family Newsletter; Albany Co., New York; Issue #3, Spring '83.

    NOTES ON THIS PAGE:

    ¹—William's birthdate changes from 1750 to 1751 because Britain and its colonies changed from the old style (Julian) calendar to the new style (Gregorian) calendar on January 1, 1752. But this change had occurred in Holland about 170 years earlier, in 1582, and the Gregorian calendar therefore was used in the Dutch colony of New Netherland (New York). The colony of New Netherland operated according to the laws and customs of the Netherlands province of Holland, where the new calendar had been in use since Pope Gregory introduced it in 1582. Therefore New Netherland records are dated as we would date them today, with the year beginning January 1 and no double-dating.
       But under the old calendar in use prior to 1752 in Britain and its colonies, the year began on March 25, and March was the first month, February the twelfth. Dates in January, February, and the first 24 days of March were often "double-dated" to indicate both the past and incoming years. For example, what we would call February 24,1714 would then have been February 24, 1713, but could also be written February 24,1713/14. It would also have been the 24th of the twelfth month, not the second month.
       When the new calendar was adopted, eleven days had to be dropped, and this was done by declaring that the day after September 2,1752 was September 14, 1752.
       After the English conquered New Netherland in 1664, and except for the brief return of Dutch rule in 1673-74, the old (Julian) calendar was used in official documents, but the Dutch often continued using the Gregorian calendar (or some aspects of it) in their church and family records.
       Some genealogists have tried to convert all old style dates to their new equivalents, and published only the new forms, just like we say George Washington was born February 22, 1732, when at the time he was born the date was February 11, 1731/2.


    ²—The Family of Samuel Hawes, Volumes 1-12, compiled and written by Derek A. Foxley: Rixeyville, Virginia; Version 1.0 — June 2018: This family history sources the William Hawes Family Lines Collection, 1750-1876, three typewritten pages from approx. 1935, supplied by Holly Allred (photocopies held by Derek Foxley, Rixeyville, Virginia, United States, 2017).
    Explanation of Source: The supplier's family believes the original source of the 3 type-written pages of the William Hawes Family Lines Collection, 1750-1876 to be from family records or even a Family Bible of Matthew Hawes however, this has not been verified. The location of the original is currently unknown.
    Chain of Custody of Source: Holly Allred received the 3 type-written papers of the William Hawes Family Lines Collection, 1750-1876, from her mother, Beverley Lundstrom, who received it from her cousin Maxine Hofmann. Maxine typed the documents we currently have as part of her genealogical work. Maxine probably got the information from her grandmother, Jennie Rosetta Hawes, as it is known that Maxine did interview and collect genealogical information from Jennie some time prior to Jennie's death in 1935. Jennie in turn would have received it from her father, Warren Nicholas, who would have got it from his father, Matthew Hawes.
    Validation of Source: This information from the William Hawes Family Lines Collection, 1750-1876, from Holly Allred has been validated by Derek Foxley for the family of Samuel Hawes. The names and dates given in the Collection concerning Samuel Hawes and his children could not have been a product of research as it contains information that would not have been available, or at best very, very difficult to research pre-1935—and which has been hard to find even in 2014-2017. Three examples 1) it includes the name and birthdate of Silas Hawes whose records linking him to Samuel Hawes are in Argentina, in Spanish. 2) It also includes the name and birthdate of Luman (Lyman?) Hawes, whose only record in 2017 is one reference in a Civil War roster. 3) It also lists Albert Hawes, who has no documented link to Samuel, but whose ancestors have proven the descendance through Y-DNA testing. At least for Samuel Hawes line, the Collection can only be a product of family held records passed down over the generations as it contains information hidden from researchers.
