652 Delila's grandmother was supposedly a full blooded Cherokee. All sides of this family,some have never come in contact with one another, state this fact. Delila's mother was a Mayfield and her (her mothers) father was English. The Mayfield girl married a Scotchman named Kirby. Aunt Mamie thinks that was Mary Mayfield and Sheard Kirby, Shird ,Shirden or Sheridan. It probably was as Delila and James Pope had a son named Sherd, Sherdan or Sheridan. S. A. Pope family stories have him named Sherd Shaver Pope.May 15,1865 Alexanderia,P.O. Springdale, Leavenworth Co. Ks. census lists James H. Pope and first family, Delila's one girl by Risenhoover, two children by Cox and John Sherman Pope,.born in Ks.as two months old. Also in household a Greselda E. Kirby, born in Mo.

667 DOUGLASS HUGHES, is descended from Irish ancestry, who came to the
United States from County Tyrone, Ireland, in 1793. The first of the
family to settle in Columbia County was Isaiah HUGHES, who located with
his wife, Henrietta (TEA) HUGHES, in Douglassville, Berks County, at a
very early period. They were members of the society of Friends and died
in this county. Their children were as follows: Mary, died unmarried;
Ann, died unmarried; Lydia, became the wife of Samuel HARTMAN, and
George, who married Ann, a daughter of Err and Sarah (DUNLAP) HARDER.
George and his wife became the parents of the subject of this sketch,
and were both natives of this county, born October 18, 1798, and March
31, 1803, respectively, and were married February 1, 1823. George died
April 10, 1881, but his wife August 23, 1871. They were both members of
the Methodist Church and were buried in what is known as the Friends'
burying-ground in Catawissa, this county. He followed the wheelwright
trade and also the foundry business at Catawissa for a number of years.
They had seven children: Harriet, born November 8, 1823, died at the age
of four years; Douglass, our subject, born December 27, 1825, married
November 27, 1849, Matilda, a daughter of Stephen and Sarah (FORNWALD)
BALDY of Catawissa; Maberry, born July 21, 1823, unmarried; Marshall,
born March 28, 1830, married Matilda KLUTZ, and died May 4, 1862; Ann
Eliza, born February 29, 1832, and married Ransloe BOONE; Marks Biddle,
born July 19, 1834, and died, unmarried, October 14, 1859; Henrietta and
Sarah (twins) born March 23, 1840 (the former married Edward SMITH, and
the latter Dr. Jacob VASTINE of Catawissa, this county). Douglass HUGHES
learned the chair-making and painter's trades with his father, with whom
he remained, except a year or two, until 1848. He then established
himself in a chair-making and painting business, on the southeast corner
of Iron and Second Streets, Bloomsburg, and conducted it for seven
years. He then bought a farm one mile from town, on the Susquehanna
River, where he lived for twenty years. In 1882 he moved to Bloomsburg,
bought a residence, and in 1884, his present place, which is known as
the "Bidleman property." Mrs. HUGHES is a member of the Methodist
Church, of which her husband is also an attendant. They are the parents
of three children: Clara Augusta, born March 15, 1852, married John
WAGGENSELLER of Bloomsburg; Mary A., born June 2, 1854, married Alfred
HARMAN of Catawissa, died in May, 1882, and George Marshall, born
September 28, 1858, married Rose FARNSWORTH of Rupert, this county.

"Henry, wife and family moved to Hamilton County, indiana in the 1830's. Henry's occupation at this time was being a minister of the Gospel and no doubt a farmer too. In 1849 he moved to Hartford, Warren Co., Iowa with his family. He was a veteran of the war of 1812. He served under General Harrison at Fort Defiance, Ohio against the British. He died at Hartford in 1871 --- just nine days after getting a pension from the government for 1812 was enlistment. Pension was for $8.00 per month. Henry also received a land grant of 80 acres N.E. of Hartford from the government. Land Grant is in the posssession of Myron Shetterly.

672 Edward McClure Ouderkirk's father died when he was four or five and his mother married Emil Hurzeler when Edward was six years old. He never was legally adopted but finally assumed the name of Hurzeler and took out a homestead and was married by that name. Hence my brother and I have the name of Hurzeler instead of Ouderkirk. We finally met his uncles when I was eight years old. He had not seen them since he was four or five. We now have the whole Ouderkirk family. I wish my dad had been alive when I finally found out about the Ouderkirk Family Association. He would have finally had a sense of belonging. He always had a feeling of being on the outside. I hope he knows. My parents were ranchers and farmers all their married life. It is hard work and long hours and no such thing as 40 hour weeks. They were good people and we miss them very much. They went home three days apart. Daddy was 89 and mamma was 81. (Nola Stollens) HURZELER, Edward McClure Ouderkirk (I2300)

The Elusive Rose 10-25-2011

Since my retirement from the military in 1972, I have devoted countless hours to my relentless quest for my elusive ancestor, Rose Casey. With all of the dead-ends and detours I have encountered along the way, at times I have felt like the fabled Knight, Don Quixote as he futilely jousted with windmills.

I persisted in this quest, chiefly in deference to my father. He felt so isolated and neglected as I plowed up row after row of my mother?s family history. This was a relatively easy task as all sorts of books and other documentation existed.

My father certainly had every right to feel abandoned, given his precarious childhood. He and his brother, my Uncle Shorty, Lost their sixteen year old step-brother, Henry, to tuberculosis when dad was seven, their mother, Rose to breast-cancer when dad was eight and finally his father to pneumonia when he was nine.

Rose was buried in Spring Creek Cemetery, near Calvin, Oklahoma. In October, 2002 we visited the cemetery and searched for her grave in vain. It had evidently been bulldozed under. It was just a flat stone. We have pictures of it that my sisters took years earlier. Henry=s stone was close-by and evidently suffered a like fate. It had been our intention to have a new stone erected for Rose during that visit.

In 1909 the two orphaned boys? misery continued as they were taken to raise by a very severe uncle from their father?s side of the family. Tales from their stressful childhood would wrench your heart.

One pivotal day occurred in about 1975, when me and my brother, Ed, who is sixteen years my junior, were visiting our parents. We had dad to ourselves and I asked Ed to get a pencil and paper and to take notes of anything dad was able to remember about Rose?s family.

We thought the results were rather meager at first. It was only years later when I started to fit the pieces together, that I realized their significance. Here is what he gave us:

He said his parents had referred to Rose?s father as Joe. I subsequently determined him to be Joseph Gilbert Casey, born 7 Apr 1838.

A few years ago I met Jan Casey (Dillberg). She is the daughter of Orben Jefferson Casey, who was a son of John Jefferson Casey by a prior marriage to Tennessee Alabama Bise Goff. Orbin had died in 2002, but Jan was gracious enough to share some of her grandfather?s (John Jefferson Casey?s) notes. How thrilled dad would have been to know that his Uncle Orben had been living within a mile or two of him for all those years! But, Alas! That realization was not to be.

A few years ago Julia Casey, daughter of Joseph Gilbert Casey, born 5 Nov 1912, sent me the following, stating, ?This is from my grandfather, John Jefferson Casey, son of Joseph Casey:

Apr 12, 1957

?This is a record of me and my family to the best of my knowledge. I am glad to say that I?m from a family of 12 children. Four of the older children passed away when they were quite small. They were the oldest and the eight of us who lived to be grown are five boys and three girls and now I will give you their names:

My oldest brother, B. Casey, and the next, Fermon Casey, and the next, Denson Casey, and next, John J. Casey, and next, Will Casey.

And the girl?s names:
Exxie Casey, Rose Casey, Effie Casey.

The four of us still living are:
Dence Casey, Rose Casey, Effie Casey.?

?Oh no!?, this, I felt, definitely threw a monkey-wrench into the machinery. But, after sleeping on it, I started to rationalize. I had no idea how far back John Jefferson had last had contact with Rose. Another thing to consider is that when Rose left home at an early age to marry an Indian, that was regarded as a shameful act by many. At that time the American Indian was not portrayed in the romantic image he enjoys today. Many family members were ostracized after such marriages. And dad told me that her relations with her family were strained and she used to sit and cry about it.

I think it is probable that John Jefferson had simply had no contact with Rose for all those years and therefore assumed that she was still alive.

Now! This is where the notes that my brother Ed and I took on that long ago day, become invaluable.

When we asked dad if he could remember any other family members, he said, ?Yes, there were two girls, one named Effie and the other Exxie.? Now, how many girls have you ever heard of named Exxie?

But then came, what to me was the clencher:

Mom had been listening to our conversation and chimed in,?. . . And your Uncle Rog, don?t forget your Uncle Rog! I met him and he was such a nice man. I really liked him!?

For years I had wondered about Rog, until I contacted Julia Casey. She informed me that the Rog that my mom had referred to was William L. Casey. That was his nick-name. ?God bless Julia!?

I am a descendant of Joseph Gilbert Casey and his wife Rachel Jane Wates (Waits) through their daughter, Rose Casey.

The first reference to this family I have, I came across in the 1880 Federal Census for Cass County, Texas. It is listed under Vol 6, Ed 13, Sheet 5, Line 30. Just Precinct 4.

J. G. Casey is given as the head of the family. He is 43 years of age, born in Georgia. His wife is R. J. Casey, 41, born in Georgia. A son, J. S. Casey, 17, was born in Arkansas. A daughter, E. E. Casey, 14, born in Arkansas, a daughter, R. A. Casey,(Rose, I am sure), 7years, born in Texas, and finally, a son, A. Casey, 1, born in Texas.

Rose Casey married first a William Island. He was half Creek Indian. They had one son, Henry Island. After William Island=s death, Rose married my grandfather, George Edward (Ed) Honley. She brought her son, Henry, to this marriage. We find them all living together in the Oklahoma Indian Territory Census for 1900. They were living near Calvin, Hughes County, Oklahoma:

The head of the household is Edwen Honley, 31, born in Tennessee. His wife is Rosey W. Honley, 26, born in Texas. (Note two disparities from the 1880 Census. The middle initial, AW@, in place of A, and the birthplace of Texas instead of Arkansas. Since she was listed in the previous census as the last child born in Arkansas, she could have, just as well have been the first born in Texas. A recently discovered Cousin, Julia Casey, says that both sites could be correct in a manner of speaking. Since they are in Cass County, Texas, near Bloomburg, which is right on the Texas - Arkansas line.

As for the mix-up in the middle initial, I have no explanation. But, as a matter of my own personal conjecture, I just have a hunch it was AW@, and here is why. It was a very common practice at that time in our history, to give a daughter the maiden name of her mother as a middle name. And Rose=s mother was Rachel Jane Wates or Waits.) Both of Rose=s parents are listed as having been born in Georgia.

Living with them are their sons, Bertie L., 3, born in the Indian Territory, (My Uncle Shorty. As an adult he stood about five foot three) and my father, Bryant Honley, 4\12 of a year, also born in the Indian Territory. His adult height was only five foot seven and a half. The Caseys tended to be short of statue.

Rose=s son, Henry Island, 9, born in the Indian Territory was also living with them. In actuality, Bertie=s name evolved to Lanus Benjamin and my father was, Bryan Lafayette.

I find it illuminating that so many of our ancestors sprung from the same vicinity. My Father, Bryan Lafayette Honley, son of George Edward Honley and Rose Casey, was born in Texanna, Oklahoma, 6 April 1900 and his brother, Lanus Benjamin (Shorty) Honley, was born in Stidham Oklahoma, 6 July, 1897. I understand that both towns are in McIntosh County, Oklahoma.

I also find it remarkable that so many family names that appear in the Casey lineage were found in the small town(250 population)of my boyhood, Calvin, Oklahoma.

Some of the names I recall are Gaddy, Bise and Goff.

But, this is about Rose=s side of the family. On this same visit in 2002, we visited the Southwestern National Archives in Ft. Worth, Texas. We found where Rose had applied for and been granted Indian land for her son, Henry. We also found her application for and the acceptance of Henry onto the Dawes Creek Indian Rolls. He was Creek Indian. Rosa is also on the files, listed as a parent. On my files I now call her Rosa, because that is the way she signed her name in a very legible hand in her application. Maybe that is the mix-up in the middle initials. Rosa instead of Rose A. I have copies of these documents in my possession.

Needless to say, I will be thrilled if any of you can give me additional information or pictures of Rose or her family. I do not have one picture of my paternal grandparents. And I would be most thankful for any descriptions or anecdotes of any of my ancestors that might help flesh them out. Such treasures tend to give them life, making them much more than just statistics on a page.

Here is my direct line of descent, the dates are birth dates::

Elisha Casey, Jan 6, 1773 married Esther Landers, Abt. 1782

Their son Elisha Casey, Nov 27, 1813, married Allie B. Patrick, Sep 13, 1813

Their son, Joseph Gilbert Casey, Apr 7, 1838, married Rachel Jane Wates Abt. 1839.

Their daughter Rose Casey, Mar 1872, married George Edward Honley, Apr 12, 1867.

Their son, Bryan Lafayette Honley, 6 Apr 1900, married Rondamay Swetnam, Jan 23, 1907.

They had four children:

Wallace Dale Honley (Me)
Mildred Rose Honley - Patterson - Romanazzi
Patricia Ann (Pat) Honley - Greenlee
Edward Lee Honley

Mildred and I live in Visalia, California. Pat lives in Prescott, Arizona and Ed in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

I like to think that my Dad, somewhere far beyond this troubled veil of tears is smiling his approval that I have finally established earthly ties to his Casey heritage.

694 FamilySearch.org shows David marrying Polina Lane in Brown County, Ohio on January 7, 1830
It also lists David, son of James and Elinore Wilson, as dying in 1867 in New York. No other details.

The 1850 census shows John Sears married to Polina from Ohio. Mildred Graham Willits has indicated that David's children included Wilson and Fredilla, names who are listed for John Sears and Polina.

The 1860 census for Spiceland, Henry County, Indiana lists David Sears married to Polina and having 4 children at home - Phridilla -17; David -12; John 9; (illegilble - may be Schaline) -7. Thus we can confirm that John and David are the same people.

Oral family history claims that his mother, Elinore, was disowned by her parents for jumping out a window and marrying James 4 Sears. As she became older, she asked her son, David, to travel with her to New York to claim the family inheritance.

698 Feral Bogden
Feral Bogden, 84, of Aurora passed away peacefully at her home Thursday afternoon, July 14, 2005, surrounded by the love and prayers of her family.
She was born September 3, 1920 in Aurora, IL, the daughter of Frank and Helen F. (Wolf) Spang. Feral attended Aurora Central Catholic Schools and was united in marriage to Alex Bogden in 1941. They made their home in Aurora for many years and were faithful members of Holy Angels Catholic Church.
She will be especially remembered for her love of garage sales. Whether she was the buyer or seller, she enjoyed visiting with fellow bargain hunters. When her own garage was the site of a sale, she also enjoyed the many compliments she received on her beautiful lawn and garden.
Over the years, Feral struggled privately with bouts of depression and, in more recent years, was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease as well. Through the darkest hours of her battles, however, she found hope and courage in her faith. Released at last from illness and loss, she claims now the promise of that faith and the answer to her fervent prayers.
She is survived by a son, Frank (Meg) Bogden of Sugar Grove; three grandchildren; and five great grandchildren, Nick (Terri) Bogden and their children, Alex and Sarah of Newark, IL, Doug (Rachel) Bogden and their children, Zachary and Zoey of North Aurora, IL and Amy (Mitchell) McCarney and their daughter, Haven of Big Rock, IL; and Feral's loyal caregiver, Olga Kharko.
She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Alex; and a great grandchild, Thomas Jace Bogden; as well as several aunts and uncles.
Visitation will be held Monday morning from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM at Holy Angels Catholic Church, Aurora where Mass will follow at 11 AM. Interment will follow at St. Joseph Cemetery, Rt. 25, Aurora, IL.
A memorial to benefit Holy Angels Church and VNA Hospice has been established in her name. Checks may be made to either the church or the hospice and mailed in care of P.O. Box 66, Elburn, IL, 60119. Personal Tributes and memories may also be made to the same address or forwarded to the family through www.conleycare.com
