The facts about Aaron's parents have yet (12/1/09) to be clearly established. Information has been added based on the research of Honor Conklin, and utilizing Adams and Jacob J Waldron's sources, to see if any possible links are established.
************
"An Incomplete survey of the descendants of Aaron and Louvina Goldman Conklin" by Earl R. Brown, Indianapolis, Indiana. 10 November 1959
"Conklin, Aaron B. 5 April 1820 Windsor, Vermont (No record Vermont State Library)(See Civil War information below)(indicates that he may have been born in the year 1816 ref: Indiana State Library, Archives Division)(Also indicates that he may have been born in Virginia - there are two cards in their files - one for each enlistment - one says that he was born in Vermont, the other, that he was born in Virginia)
Died 31 July 1910 Indiana Old Soldiers Home, Marion, Indiana
Buried Lot No. 1732, Row 10, Section 2, Indiana; Old Soldiers Home, Marion, Indiana
Married Louvina Goldman 5 April 1846
Aaron enlisted in Company I, 36th Indiana Volunteer Infantry, from Wayne County, Indiana on 16 September 1861 at the stated age of 45 years. Promoted to 1st Sergeant from Sergeant 11 June 1863.
Re-enlisted as substitute private for Philip R. Brinkley in Company I, 17th Indiana Volunteer Infantry Regiment on 27 September 1864 at Camp Morton, Indianapolis, Indiana at the stated age of 44 years.
Discharged 14 June 1865 at Nashville, Tennessee. Complexion Dark; Born Windsor, Vermont. (Other enlistment record says Windsor, Virginia). Occupation Carpenter.
Tended toll gates at Brookville, (Franklin County) and the SOuth J Street approach to Elwood (Madison County) Indiana. Dates as yet unconfirmed.
Reported to have been a prisoner of War, confined at the POW camp at Andersonville, Georgia. Enquiry from the National Archives, Washington, DC as yet unanswered (Request mailed 19 September, with accompanying fee, as requested by GSA).
Aaron always believed he had a brother from whom he became separated when his parents became ill and died of a fever, while traveling across either Pennsylvania or Ohio (There is a report that there is a record of such an incident on file in Blairsville, Penna). There are two schools of thought among his descendants; one that the family was traveling by wagon train, the other; that they were traveling by boat, when struck by the fever. Aaron was raised by a family named Sherman, about whom, at this time, nothing further is known.
ADDENDUM - written 14 November 1959
Pension Claim No. 432817 filed 24 January 1883; apparently disallowed
Pension Claim filed 1 November 1889; also apparently disallowed
Pension Claim No. 512892 filed 16 October 1897; also apparently disallowed
Pension Claim No. 512892 again filed 18 February 1907; indications are that this claim
was allowed and paid through 4 May 1910
No mention is made of any confinement in the POW camp in Andersonville, Georgia
After leaving the service, he made his home in East Germantown; Milton; Madison County;
Muncie and Barracks 14, The National Military Home, Marion, Indiana
Contacted Sciatica in October 1863 at Chicasaw, Alabama; treated by Regimental Surgeon
Basey; not hospitalized; this ailment apparently bothered him for the rest of his life.
Detached duty, Recruiting Services, Louisville, Kentucky, from 1 November 1864 through
30 April 1865. Detached Duty, Columbus, Georgia for the month of June 1865."
NOTE: Mr. Brown was in error referring to Louvina or Lavina Goldman. Records in Lebanon County, PA establish that her name was spelled Lavinia. He also suggests that she had two brothers - Eunice who is believed to be buried in the Military Cemetery in Nashville, Tennessee; and William who ran a store in Germantown, Indiana. Neither of these names has been verified.

The following is copied from the Hinshaw Family Association site:
Jacob & Rebecca emigrated to New Garden, Chester County, Pennsylvania in 1741.1,5,21,42 An entry referencing his preparations to emigrate is found in the minutes of the Preparative Meeting of Grange, near Charlemount, Ireland, for the meeting of 2 Mo. 3, 1741:10
"Patrick Holm & his wife, also Hugh Kennedy & his family, having Laid before our meeting their Intention of Removing to America, they being poor friends & in want of help, therefore this meeting agrees that William Delap doe Lay out ye Sum of fifteen pounds Ster: to help to pay their fraughts and other necessaries for ye Jurnay untill he be paid ye Same out of ye Interest Left to poor friends of this meeting; also John Whitsit, James Pillar, William delap, Thos Greer & Benjn Marshill are Desired to Draw Suitable Certificates for ye Sd Hugh Kennedy and for Jacob Hinshaw & his wife who Intends ye Same Journy".
Jacob and Rebecca were received at the New Garden Monthly Meeting, Chester County, PA, on 11-30-1741:10,39
"Jacob Hinshaw and Rebecca, his wife, produced a certificate from ye Men's and Women's Meeting (Grange) near Charlemont in ye North of Ireland, bearing date ye 3d day of ye 2d month, 1741, recommending him and his wife members in unity."
Jacob and Rebecca signed (witnessed) a marriage certificate at New Garden for John Marshill & Ruth Hadley, dated Aug 14, 1742.10
They lived for a time within the limits of New Garden and then moved and about 1748 became members of the Menallen Meeting, Warrington, York (now Adams) County, Pennsylvania.28,10,42
One of the first marriages at Menallen MM was that of Samuel Pope to Elizabeth Stevenson on 7 Mo. 4, 1751, witnessed (signed) by Jacob Hinshaw.10
On 10 Mo. 23 1752, Jacob (Henshaw) appeared before Thomas Wilson, York County J.P., as a witness to the will of a John Blackburn.b
In 1752 some members of the meeting complained that Jacob was guilty of "breach of promise concerning the price of a Createre". In the 9th month (Nov), Jacob produced the following document which was recorded in the record:10
"Friends as it was your desire I should be at this meeting to Clear the truth of the Scandal I have brought upon it by my breach of promise for the which I am very sorrey and hopes to be more careful for time to come.
Jacob Hinshaw"
From Menallen they removed to Monaghan Township, York County, where they were living in 1758.10
About 1765 Jacob and family moved to Orange County, North Carolina, settling in the vicinity of the Sandy Creek Meeting, located west of Liberty near the community of Melancton.167 They presented a certificate dated 10 Mo. 12, 1765 to the Cane Creek Monthly Meeting on 1 Mo. 4, 1766.1,2,5,21
The Cane Creek MM men's records shows an entry for 1-4-1766:2
"Jacob Hinshaw received on a certificate from Pennsylvania".
The women's record shows an entry for the same date:2
"Rebekah Hinshaw & daughters Mary, Rebekah, Elizabeth, & Jane received on a certificate from Warrington MM".
On August 19, 1768, Jacob bought two tracts of land, one containing 272 acres and the other 106 acres, at Sandy Creek in Orange County, North Carolina. He bought this land from Herman Husband for forty pounds. The deed identifies Jacob as a weaver by profession.1,5,42
This same Herman Husband later became leader of the radical group known as the "Regulators". After a climatic battle between this group and the provincial army in 1771, several of the movement's leaders faced execution. Jacob and some of his sons signed petitions asking for clemency for the condemned rebels. It is not known how much Jacob or his sons were involved in this movement, but it is interesting to note that shortly after the collapse of the movement, most of Jacob's sons returned to Pennsylvania for a time.42

The LDS site lists 2 marriages for Elizabeth and Andrew. Examination of the actual films does not provide any additional information. A search was made in Champaign, Ohio but was not successful.
One record states they were married in 1848 in Champaign, Ohio and that this information was provided by the Jordan River Temple. The second record states that they were married in Madison County, Indiana on July 23, 1858 (this is highly unlikely given John Luther's birthdate is known but it does coincide with Andrew's date of death). The second record seems to be a typographical error and should reflect his death.

THE PASSING OF ?JACK? FLAGG
Oscar H. Flagg, better known as 'Jack' to his friends and associates in Wyoming, passed away
recently, at Verdi, Nevada, with no particulars of his death given.
Jack Flagg was a prominent figure in Wyoming during the "Cattlemen?s Invasion of 1892" and for
many years afterward. Had it not been for his particular personal courage and bravery at the "Kaycee
Fight" the history of Wyoming might have been considerably changed. At that time he was the chosen
leader and spokesman for the settlers (or so-called "rustlers") and the citizens of Johnson County
through the columns of the "People?s Voice" at the time of the "Johnson County War".
Before this critical period in the history of our county and state Jack Flagg lived on the Red Fork of
Powder River where he had a small ranch and a few head of stock, but after the "Kaycee Fight"
despairing of his life, he moved his family to Buffalo and became editor and manager of the "People?s
Voice". Which later became the "Buffalo Voice".
The name "rustler" was synonymous with "settler" in the days when Jack Flagg was in his prime. This
country for many years was practically controlled by the big syndicates of England and Wyoming Cattle
capitalists who resented the advent and encroachment of the settler whom they considered an intrusion
upon the privileged rights of a few. Taking the government control in their own hands they decided to
kill and drive the settler out of the country. History records their humiliating defeat and the active part
taken by Flagg, being a settler and a menace to the activities of the private interests was branded a
"rustler" and later was called the "king of the rustlers".
Wyoming owes a great deal to the memory of 'Jack' Flagg for his own courageous spirit and his
mighty and fearless pen, in defending an invaded country. He aided materially in changing Wyoming
from a vast cow country held alone for private gain to the wonderfully developed and great Wyoming
today. Had Jack Flagg shown a flash of cowardice at the ?Kaycee Fight? and surrendered to the enemy,
it might have changed the status of this whole country and it might still be submitted to the rule of a few
privileged rich.
Oscar H. Flagg was born and reared in Virginia, descendant of Robert E. Lee, Confederate Civil War
General, a graduate of Columbia University of that state, moved from there to Texas and on to
Wyoming to punch cows for the big cattle outfits, later owned a ranch and became a settler. He was a
man of unusual education, with a keen and scintillating pen and mind.
Flagg, the "King of the Rustlers" has gone to meet the "Eternal Judge of the Living and the Dead" and
we must leave him in the trust of God to be judged as we all must be judged, while Time the great
leveler smoothes the angry passions of men, wipes away with a skillful touch old hatreds and old
resentments, leaving no scars for the coming generations.
Jack Flagg is dead.
Living he "painted the Thing as he saw it for the God of Things as they are.

The town of Douglassville, near Pottstown, was named after him, for he lived in Douglass Manor. He also built and ran the White Horse Tavern, which was a stop on the Schuylkill River for travelers to and from Philadelphia. In 1776, in the Revolutionary War, he commanded a company in Lotz's Battalion. A pew in the Valley Forge Memorial Chapel has been given as a memorial to him.

The Township of Spang, Minnesota is named after Matthew A. Spang who was a county auditor in Itasca County
Minnesota History and Biography, 1915 "Minnesota: Its Story and Biography, Vol. 2" History of Minnesota-Biographical page 280 of 687
"For five successive terms, Mathew Spang has been elected auditor of Itasca County. Perhaps no citizen is better known and more highly esteemed in that section of Minnesota. His has been a career of progressive enterprise and accomplishment. A number of years ago he was a log scaler in the woods of Northern Minnesota, and in every relation of life, whether in private business or public office, has been true to the trusts reposed in him.
Mathew A. Spang was born in the province of Ontario, Canada February 19, 1874. His parents were Anthony and Mary (Jennings) Spang, farming people of Ontario. For an education he depended upon the country schools, and had a high school course and also a course in a commercial college. For three years after coming to Minnesota in 1893 he taught school, and was a bookkeeper for a similar period. From 1898 until 1902 Mr. Spang was engaged in the active outdoor work of log scaler, and in the latter year became deputy sheriff of Itasca County, an office he filled until 1904. Then began his long service of ten years in the office of county auditor, being elected in 1904, and at each successive biennial election to the present time, serving now his fifth term. Mr. Spang is also half owner of the sawmill of Spang & Hollihan in Grand Rapids.
ON June 29, 1909 Mr. Spang married Nora Scollard of Ontario, Canada. They have three children: Anthony Jennings and James Scollard are twins, and Lawrence William. "[anthmath.FTW]
