Second Generation
2. James William Gazlay2 (Huldah1), born 23 July 1784 in New York, New York;1, 2, 3, 4, 5 died 8 June 1874 in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.1, 4 James married, first, 8 December 1811 in Norwich, Chenango County, New York, Martha ‘Patty’ Randall5, 7 (born 27 August 1790 in Stonington, New London County, Connecticut, the daughter of John Randall and Mary Swan;6, 7 Patty died 24 December 1817 in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio5, 6, 7). James married, second, 13 April 1820 in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio, Rebecca M. Williams5 (born ca. July 1804, the daughter of Elmore Williams and Lucy Ann _____;5, 8 Rebecca died 15 February 18345, 8, 9). James is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.1 Patty is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.6 Rebecca is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.8, 9

James was born in 1874 in New York City, and he moved with his parents to Dutchess County, New York, in 1789. He attended common schools and pursued and academic course. James studied law in Poughkeepsie, New York, was admitted to the bar in 1809, and there he began his practice of law. In 1813, James moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, and continued his law practice.10

Some of his writings on case law include the Report of the Case of Thomas Graham of Cincinnati published in 1821, and the Case of George P. Torrence, Acting as President Judge of the Ninth Circuit of the Court of Common Pleas of the State of Ohio, Considered, as Violative of the Constitution of the State, published in 1822.11

James was elected to the Eighteenth Congress (serving from 4 March 1823 to 3 March 1825) as a Representative from Hamilton County, Ohio, running as a Jackson Republican. In this election, his opponent was Army General (War of 1812), Congressman, Ohio State Senator, and future President William Henry Harrison, who lost, it is said, by only 500 votes. James failed in his bid for reelection in 1824.10

In 1826, James created, edited and published the liberal Western Tiller, a mostly agricultural publication, but also carrying “anti-ecclesiastical articles and poems…The Tiller opened its columns to any citizen who wished to criticize the aristocratic church polity of the Methodists, gloat over schisms in the Baptist church, or assail the hireling priests.” James sold the Tiller to Wm. J. Ferris in 1828.12

James wrote A Treatis on Horses in 1827, reflecting his scholarly interest in horses. In later years, James wrote “some long-winded poetic philosophizings and heavy-handed satires,” as well as other writings, on mostly social topics. These include: Short View of Social Elements and Relations of the United States, 1843; and Sketches of Life and Social Relations: With Other Poems, 1860. Following the civil war, he wrote the Reconstruction of the Southern States, 1865; Political Questions, 1866; Scraps for Laws of New Creation: One God, One Race, One Creed, and One Liberty, 1867; and Imagination, 1868.11, 12, 13

James has been described as, “…in many respects, an acute thinker and a vigorous journalist, and unconventional enough to criticize the mumbo-jumbo of the law. In opposition to his colleagues, who regarded ‘the truths and excellencies of religion and law’ as ‘equally indisputable,’ Gazlay attacked the wording of laws as degenerate and confused and advocated simpler phraseology.”12

A New York Times article, published, 16 December 1870, provides some additional biographical details of James Gazlay, several not found elsewhere:14


Lochy Ostrom’s Estate—Some Errors Corrected by “An Old Citizen” of Cincinnati.

To the Editor of the Cincinnati Commercial:

I notice, under head of special telegram from New-York, in your paper of today, an article in regard to the estate of Rachel Ostrom. It has many errors in it. I propose to correct a few of them.

It is true that James W. Gazlay in the fore part of the present century was engaged to be married to miss Rachel Ostrom, of Poughkeepsie, in the State of New-York. Mr. J. W. Gazlay desired to marry her and move West. The mother of Miss Ostrom would not go West, and Miss Ostrom would not leave her mother. J. W. Gazlay came West and located at Cincinnati, Ohio, and afterward went back to New-York, but could not induce Miss Ostrom to come to the West, and shortly afterward he married Martha Randall, of New-York, who came to this city with him. By that marriage J. W. Gazlay had one child —Hulda, married to Thornton A. Mills, a Presbyterian clergyman of this city.

After the death of Mr. Gazlay’s first wife he married Rebecca, daughter of Elmore Williams, by whom he had three children. One of them died in its infancy. William Elmore Gazlay, another child, died after age in Florida. Allen W. Gazlay, a child, is living and doing well in the western part of the city, and J. W. Gazlay is not dead yet, but is living with his son, and is in remarkably good health and preservation for a man of his age. J. W. Gazlay never was imprisoned for contempt of Court. He said at one time to the Court, then composed of three Judges, of which the father of our worthy Mayor was one of the number, that it was a Demerara team, composed of two mules and a jackass, which remark he made in the heat of an argument, and himself and the Judges were always personal friends, and it had nothing whatever to do with his election to Congress.

In about the year 1822, Wm. Henry Harrison was a candidate for Congress in the Cincinnati District; the mechanics and working men thought that Gen. Harrison was a representative of the Virginia aristocracy, known then as the F.F.V.’s, and desired to run a candidate of their own, and appointed a committee to select a candidate, of which Mr. Bromwell, then a wire-weaver, was the Chairman. Mr. Gazlay consented to run, without any expectation on his part of the part of the Committee that he would be elected. He declined to be a candidate a second time. He and Gen. Harrison were always warm personal and political friends, and in 1840 Mr. Gazlay canvassed two States for the election of Gen. Harrison to the Presidency.


The New York Times carried the following obituary for James W. Gazlay on 13 June 1874:15


An Old Citizen

—————

Obituary.

Ex-Congressman James W. Gazlay.

The Cincinnati Commercial announces the death of James W. Gazlay, who for more than sixty years has been a resident of that city. He was born in this City, July 23, 1784, and in 1823 was elected to the Eighteenth Congress, defeating Gen. Wm. Henry Harrison. But his fate as a popular man in his district was decided by his first important vote. Gen. Lafayette had arrived in the United States early in 1825, the guest of the nation. He was introduced to each House of Congress, and it was in the House of Representatives that the effective speech of reception was made by that eloquent speaker, Henry Clay. A joint committee reported a resolution of honor and remuneration to Lafayette for his distinguished services in the American Revolution. It proposed awarding him $200,000 and a township of land, to be selected from the unsold lands of the Government, under the direction of the President. Mr. Gazley rose and moved to strike out $200,000 and insert $100,000. Although Niles’ Register deemed the voting for the large sum right, it made a point to honor the “firmness” of those who voted in the negative when they failed to make the proposed amendment. Mr. Gazley’s negative vote cost him his seat, which was warmly contested, and Gen. Findlay, a popular man, succeeded by less than twenty-five votes. After his defeat for congress by Gen. Findlay he commenced the publication in Cincinnati of a weekly newspaper, the Western Tiller, the first number of which was on the 1st of August, 1826. He brought some enterprise to its conduct, and often illustrated it with wood engravings. The paper was continued by Wm. J. Ferris, who afterward became connected with the Cincinnati Gazette.

3. Rev. Sayrs Gazlay2 (Huldah1), born 12 July 1787 in New York;4, 19, 20, 21, 22 died 24 May 1874.4, 5, 19 Sayrs married, 4 February 1835 in Fairfield, Hamilton County, Ohio, Susan Hay5 (born 17 April 1796 in New York, parents not determined;5, 20, 21 Susan died 17 February 18615, 23). Sayrs and Susan are buried in Williamsburg Cemetery, Williamsburg, Clermont County, Ohio.19, 23

Rev. Sayrs Gazlay was born in New York, and eventually moved with his parents and siblings to Ohio. He was an uncle on the maternal side to the distinguished Professor David Swing. Rev. Gazlay was a man of much learning and the author of several books, among them an extensive Biblical Commentary. He was a man of some attainments, especially in theology, but very eccentric, dogmatic and intolerant. His faith was a somber Calvinism darkened into fatalism, in which a few elect were to be rescued from the general collapse and failure of creation. He held the dogma of the divine origin and right of human slavery in the same manner, proving it the while with Bible texts, and no one dared to doubt his exegesis. Riding fast horses was his passion, but whistling was his pet abomination, and he kept a ledger in which to record the names of all boys who practices the vice. If a boy felt moved to bird-like music he looked about him before puckering his lips to begin, but after nightfall the theologian heard many a warbled tune with variations. David’s religious views were explained by his boyhood friends as, in part at least, a reaction from the radical and too violent views of his uncle. Doubtless that strange man served him as a kind of negative pole of thought, but he seems to have been endowed, from the first, with a mind at once judicial and humane.24, 25

He was pastor at several churches in New York, Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky over his lifetime. An index of Presbyterian Ministers shows his name (under various spellings) in the Presbyterian Church’s records and minutes from 1828 to 1874.26

Sayrs was admitted as a member of the First Presbyterian Church of Durham, Greene County, New York, on 30 August 1811, “by letter from the church of Pleasant Valley. Entered the ministry.” This was likely in conjunction with his parents’ and siblings’ move to Greene County.27

His name is found in several registers of the American Education Society (1827, 1829) in the Synod of Geneva, Presbytery of Chenango, N. Y., in the town of Oxford. In 1829 he was reappointed for one year in Warren County, Ohio. This was apparently when Sayrs moved from New York to Ohio. In 1832 he was reappointed for four months to the Presbytery of Ebenezer, Kentucky. Later in 1832 he was reappointed for one year to Millersburg and vicinity, Kentucky.28

Sayrs was apparently interested in, and had acquired some expertise in, fossilized wood in Ohio, having observed and collected specimens over several years. His letter to Professor Benjamin Stillman in 1833 provides rich details of his efforts on this topic, citing various finds mostly by individuals in digging their wells in the area around Springfield, Ohio.29

On 1 October 1833, the Rev. Gazlay was installed as pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, Williamsburgh, Ohio.30

In 1835, Sayrs married Susan Hay. The two children born to them both died in infancy.5

Rev. Gazlay was among 35 ministers and elders to provide testimony and to vote in the infamous trial of Rev. Lyman Beecher for heresy in the Presbyterian Church in 1835. After all the testimony, Rev. Gazlay voted to sustain the charges, which vote was in the minority, so Rev. Beecher was acquitted in the trial. On appeal to the general synod, he was again acquitted.31

Rev. Gazlay was the minister at Hopewell Church, Hopewell, Indiana 1840-41. He apparently had occasional differences of opinion with his congregants. In one incident, two women were spending the day with Rev. Gazlay’s wife, when he express strong objection to “wasting the luxury of tea upon her guests at the dinner hour.” Another time, Rev. Gazlay had stopped to spend the night at McGuire’s Tavern near Waverly, Indiana (about ten miles northwest of Hopewell). While there, he criticized the food and attempted to tell the owner how to cook. The owner, in front of many guests, said, “Judging from your manners, you ought to be running a restaurant instead of preaching the gospel.” In another incident, Rev. Gazlay was asked to allow Dr. Thomas Clelland, a well known Kentucky Presbyterian, to speak at Hopewell. Rev. Gazlay refused. So instead, a meeting was called at a private home where Dr. Clelland preached to a group of people. It apparently was after this incident that Rev. Gazlay left Hopewell.32

Rev. Gazlay was involved in an interesting and important law suit in Ohio. When Williamsburgh, Ohio, was originally laid out in 1795 or 1796, Gen. William Lytle, the town’s proprietor and founder, reserved five and one-half acres of land that were dedicated and appropriated to the public for county public buildings. Four years later, Clermont County was organized, with Williamsburgh as the first county seat. In 1824, the county seat was moved to Batavia, and the people of Williamsburgh took possession of the public buildings and square, using them for public purposes. Gen. Lytle then claimed that the square reverted to him. The county brought suit against Lytle, and the Supreme Court for Clermont County dismissed the suit, with title settled in favor of Lytle, who conveyed title to the United States Bank, to satisfy Lytle’s debt to the bank. In 1846, the bank sold the same to Sayrs Gazlay for four hundred and fifty dollars, who, along with Adam Walker, took control and possession of the public square and claimed to hold title to the square and its buildings. The corporate authorities of Williamsburgh filed suit for an injunction against Gazlay and Walker, and in December 1849 the Clermont County Supreme Court declared the title was held by the town, and the injunction was made perpetual. Rev. Gazlay and others counter-sued, and in December 1854 the Supreme Court of Ohio heard and ultimately dismissed their suit, ending the matter.24, 33

In May, 1854, Rev. Gazlay and others organized the Loveland Presbyterian Church, in Clermont County, Ohio, although other ministers served as the church’s preacher.24

Sayrs was the author of several published works, including The Way of Salvation, published in Original Sermons; by Presbyterian Ministers, in The Mississippi Valley in 1833, and the extensive Comments on Select Passages of The Holy Scriptures in 1870.34, 35

The 1870 U.S. Census shows “S. Gasley,” age 84, born in New York, living in Newport, Kentucky, across the river from Cincinnati. Living with him is “O. D. Gasley,” a 76 year old female, born in New York. Her identity has not been determined; she could be Sayrs’ second wife, although no record of another marriage has been found.22

Sayrs died 24 May 1874 and is buried in Williamsburgh Cemetery, Williamsburgh, Clermont County, Ohio.19

5. Elizabeth Gazlay2 (Huldah1), born 26 March 1792;4 died 1829.4 Elizabeth married, 21 June 1821 in Hamilton County, Ohio, Charles Fraser Kellogg5, 39 (born 22 May 1788 in New Hartford, Litchfield County, Connecticut, the son of Phineas Kellogg and Olive Fraser;37 Charles died 7 January 1865 in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio37, 38). Charles is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.38

6. Cornelia Gazlay2 (Huldah1), born 1 August 1794 in New York;4, 40 died 13 August 1873.41 Cornelia married, 7 May 1818 in Greenville, Greene County, New York, James S. Chamberlain43 (born ____, parents not determined; James died 25 February 1843 in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio5, 42). Cornelia is buried in Maineville Cemetery, Hamilton Township, Warren County, Ohio.41

James was Foreman of Engine Company 1 (later renumbered to 3), Phoenix Hook and Ladder Company, Ladder 1, in the Cincinnati Fire Department. He is listed as the first fireman in the history of the department to be killed in the line of duty. Chamberlain died on 25 February 1843 in what appears to have been a tremendous backdraft in the main building of the Pugh and Alvords Pork House. The smoke house behind the building was burning and the doors connecting the two were closed to stop the fire. Smoke and fumes built up in the main building and it exploded without warning. The explosion killed Chamberlain and eight others, mostly employees and customers of the pork house.42

7. Aribert Gazlay2 (Huldah1), born 10 December 1797 in Dutchess County, New York;4, 44, 45, 46, 47 died 22 May 1885 in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.47, 48, 49 Aribert married, 15 April 1827 in Hamilton County, Ohio, Elizabeth Buck5, 47, 54 (born 14 October 1803 in Trumansburg, Tomkins County, New York, the daughter of William Sherman Buck and Barentha York;44, 45, 46, 47, 50, 51, 52, 53 Elizabeth died 11 February 1899 in Pratt, Pratt County, Kansas50, 53). Aribert and Elizabeth are buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.49, 50

Elizabeth inherited largely, the disposition and characteristics of her mother. Among these were, pluck and determination, --qualities which always furnish a wife and mother with a most formidable equipment, to cope with the innumerable obstacles she must meet in her pathway of duty. While living with her parents near Cincinnati, Elizabeth first met her future husband, Aribert Gazley, who had but recently emigrated from Dutchess County, N. Y. The twain, after a brief courtship, were married early in April 1827. The country around Cincinnati, was still comparatively a wilderness. Land was however cheap, and the broad Ohio River adjacent, furnished a fair market for wood and timber, with the money for which the settler, by dint of hard labor and exposure, might, in time, pay for it. No sooner had the marriage knot been tied than the young couple shouldered their scanty household outfit and plunged into the wilderness about fifty miles below Cincinnati, in what is now Switzerland County, Ind., bent upon carving out a home for themselves and their posterity. They found a partly cleared but abandoned tract, which they purchases and settled down to housekeeping after a fashion. The husband shouldered his axe and chopped wood, which, with a yoke of cattle, he hauled to the river bank and sold to the steamboat craft plying up and down the Ohio, devoting the proceeds to paying for his land. The dock from which he shipped his wood took the name of Gazley’s Landing, which it retained as late as 1850. It was as well known to boatmen and travelers as any place on the river. Old boatmen still living are willing to testify that Mr. Gazely always supplied good wood from his yards at honest prices. Later on in his life he conducted the mercantile business with success, purchasing his goods in New York principally. Besides performing all the duties of a prudent and industrious housekeeper, Elizabeth did her full share of outside work. Her husband always bore witness, with pride, that she did full as much as he did towards paying for the farm. She usually had butter, milk, eggs and other farm products which she sold to the boatmen for cash, this being at that time about the only market for such products, and the proceeds usually went to liquidate the farm and other debts. Her wise counsel and words of encouragement greatly aided her husband in fighting the battle of life. In 1867, she and her husband removed to Cincinnati, where Mrs. Gazley still resides, with their only son Carter. At this present writing (1885) she is, both bodily and mentally, in excellent health, and has undertaken a visit to her relatives in Illinois. In 1884, Mr. Gazley was stricken with paralysis, which confined him to his room, and seriously impaired his mental powers; he continued to grow weaker, both physically and mentally, until the 23d of May, 1884, when he breathed his last, without a struggle.47

Elizabeth’s obituary elaborates on her life and character:53

Elizabeth Gazlay was born near Trumansburg, N.Y. October 14, 1803. On April 7, 1827, she was married to Aribert Gazlay. They immediately settled near Patriot, Ind. In 1890 she broke up house-keeping and removed to Pratt to reside with her granddaughter, Mrs. Blanche G. Apt. She died Saturday, February 11, 1899. The funeral services were held at the Apt home, conducted by Rev. Gragg. She was the last survivor of a family of thirteen children. Her husband Aribert Gazlay died at Cincinnati, Ohio in May 1885. She was educated a Presbyterian, but early after she moved to Indiana, she became a Universalist, and remained in that belief to her death. She was the mother of only one child, Carter Gazlay, who survives her. Although her immediate family was small there was no time in her active life when she was not taking care of some persons children and she raied and cared for some ten children other than her own.

Thus, briefly is told the story of one who lived for more than 95 years a life of activity, and full of good works. “Till like a clock worn out with eating time. The weary wheels of life stood still.”

David Swing, Sr., was for many years engaged in steamboating on the Ohio River. He was a man of ability and of sterling character. He was honored for his man-hood rather than for his doctrinal Christianity. He died of cholera in 1832, leaving two sons to the care of their mother.61

The History of Racine and Kenosha Counties, Wisconsin provides an interesting biographical sketch of Albert G. Knight:65

Albert G. Knight was born in Brattleboro, Vt., in May, 1808; he received the advantages of the Schools of the place, but they were not very extensive; he, however, acquired a taste for solid reading, and literally devoured the few books which were within his reach; soon after reaching his teens, he went to Providence, R.I., and served some years in a large crockery store; he then went to Baltimore and engaged in the same business; from there, he crossed the mountains, and settled in the young town of Cincinnati, where he married Miss Delia Gazlay, soon after which event he removed to Wayne Co., N.Y., and engaged in farming, where he was joined by his parents, his two brothers and only sister; the fever and ague was a little too much for them there, and early in the year 1836, Albert G. started for the West, a solitary horseman, arriving at Chicago the last of March, where he sold his horse and pushed forward to Racine on foot, because at that early season of the year there was no grass, neither hay nor grain on which the animal could be fed, had yet been raised. His sister Mary followed him in May, coming by schooner from Oswego, and the rest of the family, which had been increased by the birth of a daughter, followed, arriving in Racine August 29, 1836, by the same mode of conveyance. As elsewhere stated, there were but few settlers in the clearing known as Racine upon his arrival, and other pages of this work show so much of his relation to public affairs that it is unnecessary to repeat. In 1851, he engaged in the business of making abstracts of title, conveyances, and the like, for which he was eminently fitted. In 1854, he associated with him the late Eliphalet Cram, between whom and himself sprang up the warmest friendship based upon mutual regard. Mr. Cram died in 1868, and the firm of Knight -- Cram was changed to that of Knight -- Whiteley, Mr. Knight’s son-in-law, Simeon Whiteley, having purchased the interest of Mr. Cram in the valuable books of record and other property of the old firm. The business is still carried on by them. It is worthy of note that Mr. Knight’s grandfather, Samuel Knight, was appointed one of the Judges of the Colony of Vermont, by the English crown, his commission as such being one of the heir-looms in the family. During the early part of the Revolutionary war, Judge Knight retained his office under authority of the State of New York, which, history informs us, claimed jurisdiction over Vermont until the State was admitted to the Federation, at which time Judge Knight was made the first Chief Justice of the State, and he remained upon the bench until the time of his death. Mr. Knight’s wife and the mother of his children, died in the year 1858. She was a woman of superior mind and culture, and the deepest piety. The Gazlay family, of which she was a member, were among the first settlers of Cincinnati, her oldest brother, James W., who but recently died at a very advanced age, being one of the representatives in Congress from the Cincinnati District. Another brother, Sayrs, was a prominent clergyman of the straightest sect of the Presbyterian faith, and figured in the celebrated trial of Lyman Beecher, for heresy. Mrs. Knight’s sister, Karenda, is the mother of Rev. Prof. Swing, of Chicago, whose recent trial for the same crime as that of Lyman Beecher is still fresh in memory. Mrs. Knight was the mother of six children--Sayrs G. (now City Surveyor); Jane G. (Mrs. Simeon Whiteley); Mary H. (Mrs. Capt. Chas. E. Jewett--now living in California); John Wesley (now in the West Indies); James Mason (who died in 1874); and Miss Delia (now Third Assistant Principal in the Racine High School). In 1868, Mr. Knight married Miss Anna Hanson, a native of the island of Laaland, in the Baltic Sea, a dependency of the Kingdom of Denmark, who now presides over his present home at the corner of College avenue and Fifteenth street, a charming spot, where good taste adorns and a boundless hospitality is dispensed, as especially the Presiding Elders and Preachers of the Methodist denomination of the Northwest will attest.65

In 1886, Delia was selected to the chair of Natural and Physical Science at the Iowa State Normal School, a position she held until 1890. She left the Normal School for Boston where she became a professional nurse, having graduated from the Boston City Hospital Training School for Nurses in 1891. Delia wrote an article entitled “The Nurse and the Psychic Factor” that appeared in the very first volume of the American Journal of Nursing, November 1900.74, 75, 76 In 1907, Delia Gazlay Knight graduated from the American School of Osteopathy, Kirksville, Missouri, and she is listed as a member in good standing in the New York City Society of the American Osteopathic Association as of 1 August 1907. She is shown as Dr. Delia G. Knight in various New York City directories from 1911 through 1920. The program for the November 1913 meeting of the New York City Society of the American Osteopathic Association lists, among other presentations, “My Experience with the Jireh Foods,” by Delia G. Knight.77, 78, 79 The 1920 US Census lists her, age 61, as a patient at the infamous Middletown State Homeopathic Hospital, Middletown, Orange County, New York, and she is similarly listed, at age 66, in the 1925 New York State Census.73

Theodore and Jane are buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.86, 87, 88

The following biographical sketch of Theodore Gazlay appears in the History of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, Ohio, Their Past and Present, S. B. Nelson and Co., publishers; S. B. Nelson and J. M. Runk, 1894.85

Theodore Gazlay, attorney at law, was born in Cairo, a small village near the Hudson river, in Greene county, N. Y., in 1815, the youngest in a family of twelve children. His brothers were James W., for many years a prominent attorney of Cincinnati; Sayres, a Presbyterian minister, and Aribert, an Indiana merchant. The father, James Gazlay, and the mother, Huldah (Carter) Gazlay, were born in this country, and both were of English descent. The father came to this city with his family in 1822, and here in the public schools Theodore Gazlay laid the foundation of his education.

As a lad, he learned the printing business in the office of the Independent Press, a weekly newspaper published and edited for a few years by his brother James W. He then formed a partnership and conducted a job printing business with James A. James for a period of three years. His health failing him in this employment, he abandoned it, and repaired to his father’s farm near Lawrenceburg, where he began the study of law, which he subsequently pursued in Lawrenceburg, Rising Sun, and Patriot, Ind. He was admitted to practice in 1841, removed to Cincinnati shortly thereafter, and continued in the practice of his profession until 1885, when he abandoned it, now devoting his time to the management of his estate. Mr. Gazlay was for twelve years associated with the Ohio & Mississippi Railway Company, as its managing attorney. He acquired a competency from the practice of his profession, and is, with his children, by inheritance from his nephew, Allen W. Gazlay, eldest son of James W. Gazlay, the possessor of more than a half million dollars’ worth of real estate in the heart of Cincinnati.

In Lawrenceburg, Ind., in 1844, Mr. Gazlay was married to Jane E. Fitch, whose parents, Harris and Hannah Fitch, were of English and Irish descent, respectively. Of the children born of this marriage, one son and five daughters survive, viz.: William H. Gazlay, the Cincinnati agent of the Chrome Steel Works, of New York; Hannah F. Gazlay; Mrs. Huldah Miller, wife of Albert W. Miller, now, and for some years past, city clerk of Sandusky, Ohio; Mrs. Emma G. Donaldson, wife of Andrew Donaldson, one of the vice-presidents of the New York & Erie railroad; Julia D. Gazlay, a talented vocalist, and Mrs. Clara J. Kuhn, wife of Oscar W. Kuhn, an attorney of Cincinnati. Mr. and Mrs. Gazlay, son and unmarried daughters reside at No. 105 Park avenue, Walnut Hills; Mr. and Mrs. Kuhn at North Ingleside, Walnut Hills; Mr. and Mrs. Miller, at Sandusky, Ohio, and Mr. and Mrs. Donaldson, in New York City. Mr. Gazlay is a Republican, but has never had any aspirations for political preferment. His wife is a member of the Methodist Church.

Cemetery Record, Williamsburg Cemetery, Clermont County, Ohio; Clermont County Genealogical Society (website: www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ohclecgs/); Headstone inscription: Verna Silens Nata / Apr. 3 1836 / Obernus / Born / Sept. 9 1837 / Died / July 14 1838 / Child of / S. Gazlay. The inscription documented in the separate list of Additional Inscriptions suggests that the two children are “Obernus” and “Verna Silens Nata”. We agree that Obernus is the name of one child, with the associated birth and death dates. However, we interpret the other inscription as the name Verna followed by the Latin “Silens Nata”, meaning “Verna, born in silence”, i.e., stillborn, on 3 April 1836. The “S. Gazlay” is believed to be Sayrs Gazlay based on the proximity of this headstone with the headstones of Sayrs and his wife Susan.

Carter and Elizabeth are buried in Patriot Cemetery, Patriot, Switzerland County, Indiana.28

Carter Gazley, when young, was drilled in surveying by his uncle, Asaph Buck, and studied law for three years with his uncle, Judge Theo. Gazley, at Lawrenceburgh, Ind. He practiced law in Indiana and Ohio until after the breaking out of the Rebellion, when he raised the 37th Indiana Vols., of which he was appointed Colonel, and did active service about sixteen months. The regiment was sent to South Carolina, and thence into the Army of the Ohio (8th Brigade, 3d Division), Maj. Gen. Mitchell commanding. The regiment participated in the capture of Huntsville and the Memphis and Charleston Railroad, holding that road and the country north to Fayetteville, Tenn. The Division was considered part of Buel’s army. Upon the close of his service, Mr. Gazley returned to the practice of law, at Cincinnati, Ohio. Carter was at one time a leader at the Cincinnati bar, his practice amounting to $8000 per annum. He was attorney for numerous railroad corporations. Ill health has compelled him to retire from active life.37

An interesting anecdote about Carter during his service in the Civil War appears in Anecdotes, Poetry, and Incidents of the War: North and South. 1860-1865, collected and arranged by Frank Moore:38

A Colonel on Guard — A Lieutenant in one of the Ohio regiments was making a detail of men to guard a lot of army stores captured from the enemy. He approached a crowd of men all wearing overcoats such as Uncle Sam gives his boys, and selected four or five for special duty. It happened that Lieutenant-Colonel Gazley, of the Thirty-seventh Indiana, was in the crowd, and was selected by the Lieutenant. This was fun for the Colonel, and without a word he shouldered his gun and went to his post of duty. Not long afterwards, the Lieutenant, going his rounds, discovered by the firelight the bugle upon Gazlay’s cap. He rather authoritatively inquired where he got that bugle. The Colonel said he “must have picked up an officer’s cap somewhere,” and the Lieutenant passed on.

The Colonel stood his turn all night long, and was found in the morning walking his post. Having laid off his overcoat, his shoulder-straps appeared very conspicuously in connection with the musket on his shoulder. As soon as the Lieutenant discovered a Colonel on guard, he approached him, and courteously inquired how he came to be there upon guard? “Well, sir, you placed me here.” With no little agitation the Lieutenant inquired who he was. “My name is Carter Gazley, and I am Lieutenant-Colonel of the Thirty-seventh Indiana regiment.” The Colonel was speedily “released,” but the Lieutenant was not yet relieved from his embarrassment.

The History of Chicago, by Alfred Theodore Andreas, published in 1885, provides a concise biography of David Swing:45

Rev David Swing, pastor of the Central Church, was born at Cincinnati, Ohio, August 23, 1830, the youngest son of David and Karinda (Gazley) Swing. The Swings were a German family, and came to America in 1726. David Swing, Sr., was for many years engaged in steamboating on the Ohio River. He was a man of ability and of sterling character. He was honored for his man-hood rather than for his doctrinal Christianity. He died of cholera in 1832, leaving two sons to the care of their mother, who was a devoted Christian, and who inculcated into the minds of her children the fundamental principles of the Christian life. In 1837, Mrs. Swing married the second time, and re-moved to Reading, Ohio, and in 1840 settled on a farm near Williamsburg in the same State. On this farm young David lived eight years, attending the public school in the winter season and at such other times as it was possible. Farm labor gave him a vigorous constitution, and contact with nature developed in him, to an unusual degree, the observing and reflective faculties, and also that originality and independence of thought which characterize all his utterances and writings. At the age of eighteen, having prepared himself by private study, he entered Miami University, at Oxford, Ohio, from which he graduated as Bachelor of Arts in 1852. He then commenced his Divinity studies under Rev. Dr. N. L. Rice, of Cincinnati, with whom he remained one year. In 1853, he returned to Miami University as Professor of Ancient Languages, and remained in that capacity thirteen years. In 1866, he was invited to the pastorate of Westminister Presbyterian Church, Chicago. In this Church his sermons were characterized by liberality of thought, and by a want of dogmatic teaching respecting certain doctrines which underlie Calvanism, and which were believed by some to be essential to Presbyterianism. Large congregations listened to his sermons, and his popularity became so great that the North Presbyterian Church was led to seek a consolidation with Westminister Church, which was effected February 6, 1871, and the united bodies named the Fourth Presbyterian Church. The church-building was soon afterward destroyed by the great fire, as were also the residences of all but two of his parishioners. Rev. David Swing himself saved nothing, and with his wife and two daughters spent the night on the open prairie. On the second Sunday after the fire, October 22, he commenced preaching in Standard Hall, on the southwest corner of Michigan Avenue and Thirteenth Street. There he preached nearly a year. But when the hall became too small to accommodate the increasing congregation, the services were transferred to McVicker’s Theatre; but upon the completion of the new Fourth Church edifice, he resumed the pastorate of this Church. This building also was soon filled to overflowing by members and strangers temporarily sojourning in the city, all anxious to hear Professor Swing, whose fame had become widely extended. Professor Francis L. Patton, then pastor of Jefferson Park Presbyterian Church, and professor in the Presbyterian Theological Seminary of the Northwest, believing the teachings of Professor Swing to be heretical and subversive of true Christian doctrine, inaugurated the trial which has since been so famous, and which resulted in Professor Swing’s withdrawal from the Presbyterian Church. His friends then inaugurated the movement resulting in the organization of the Central Church. His relations as pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian Church terminated December 1, 1875, and he commenced preaching for the new organization in McVicker’s Theatre in April, 1876. This theatre was used until the fall of 1880, when the services were transferred to Central Music Hall, which continues to be used until the present time. His fame, and the intrinsic merit of his powerful sermons, have rendered his name one of the most celebrated in the country, and the vast auditorium of Central Music Hall is weekly filled to hear him. Professor Swing was married, on July 3, 1855, to Miss Elizabeth Porter, daughter of Dr. James Porter, of Oxford, Ohio. Mrs. Swing died on August 3, 1879, leaving two daughters — Mary, now Mrs. Jewett E. Ricker, of Cincinnati, and Helen, who lives at home with her father.

Rev. Swing was friends with Mary Lincoln, widow of President Abraham Lincoln. Mary mentions her friendship in her letters in 1874, owned by the Illinois State Historical Library, and in an 1874 letter owned by the Ricker family. The family also has in its possession books and objects that were given by Mary to the family, in particular, Rev. Swing, his wife Elizabeth, and their daughters, Helen and Mary. The association between Mary Lincoln and the Swings began as early as 1859. Mary visited the Swings during her visits to Chicago from 1866 to 1875. The friendship was apparently of some benefit to Mary Lincoln’s mental and spiritual well being, and she showed her appreciation to the Swings in the form of gifts including a silver goblet and napkin ring, still owned by the Ricker family, that had been used by the Lincolns in the White House. When Mary Lincoln’s son Tad died in 1871, Mary “found a safety net in the Swing family,” and “seemed to transfer her affections to the fifteen year old Mary Swing.” Mary Lincoln personally assisted in the 1874 wedding of Mary Swing to Jewett E.

A brief biographical sketch appears in his obituary, which is excerpted here: Sayres G. Knight was born in Battleboro, Vermont, September 27, 1833, a son of the late Albert G. Knight, who came to Racine on horseback in the year 1836, and was identified with the early history of the city. Sayrs came the following spring when but a few years old, and his education was acquired in the primitive schools of the early days, and he also experienced all of those hardships known to the pioneer. His first experience as a civil engineer was when the old Racine and Mississippi railway was built. In later years he was the city engineer of Racine. Sayrs surveyed, gave lines and laid out a large portion of the north, south and west sides of the city. After retiring as city engineer he went west and was engaged in the engineering department at Omaha, Nebraska, where he remained for some years and returned to Racine. Soon he was elected county surveyor, and was a surveyor there for over forty years. He was occasionally called upon to make surveys to settle disputes. He was a quiet and unassuming man, and there was not a better known or more honored citizen in the county. He was survived by his wife, three sons, Albert G., head engineer of an electric railway in La Salle, Ill.; William, employed in the Racine East Manufacturing company offices, and Harold, who assisted his father in his engineering work; two daughters, Jane M. Knight, of New York, and Marietta, a music teacher of Racine; three sisters, Mrs. Jane Whiteley, Racine; Mrs. Jewett, California, and Delia Knight, Andover, Massachusetts.78

Jane wrote “Our Denver Story, 1863,” which includes remembrances of her trip to Denver by stage coach in 1863. She describes life in Denver, a major flood and an “Indian scare” which precipitated her return to Wisconsin again by stage.89

Jane was active in the First Methodist Episcopal Church, Racine. She was elected President of the church’s Woman’s Foreign Missionary Society in 1887, and was re-elected every year for twenty years until her death in 1907.90

The History of Racine and Kenosha Counties, Wisconsin provides an interesting biographical sketch of Simeon Whiteley, an excerpt of which is presented here:88

Simeon Whiteley was born March 18, 1831, at Huddersfield, Yorkshire, England. The financial crash in the woolen manufacturing district in 1841-42 swept away what fortune his father had acquired, so Simeon came to America with his parents, arriving at New York August 4, and at Racine August 29, 1842. He worked in a woolen factory and later in the printing business, serving an apprenticeship of nearly four years, at Geneva, Ill. His first newspaper editorial was upon the death of Henry Clay, for the Watertown (Wis.) Chronicle, of which paper he had temporary charge soon after his 21st birthday. Simeon started a new paper at Aurora, Ill., the Aurora Guardian, a politically Democratic paper. However, his strong opposition to the extension of slavery alienated his most valued friends, and for two years he struggled with poverty, but, in 1856, friends and prosperity returned. In 1858, his health gave way and he was obligated to retire from business, and in early 1859 he again took up residence in Racine, but spent a large portion of the summer in Chicago, where he was induced to join a political club, the Cameron and Lincoln Club. Hee was soon elected Corresponding Secretary, and at once put the Club in communication with the rural press. In December, 1859, Simeon went to Washington as the correspondent of the Springfield Journal (Mr. Lincoln’s home organ). As he passed through Ohio, bells were being tolled for the death of John Brown, and, arriving at Baltimore, hotels were full of militia who had assisted at the execution. After the Republican convention, he edited a campaign paper at Chicago, aptly called The Rail Splitter, which reached a circulation of over 30,000 copies. In 1861, the day after Gen. Cameron was sworn in as Secretary of War, Mr. Whiteley was immediately assigned to duty in the Secretary’s office. When Sumter was fired upon, he enrolled as a private soldier in the battalion formed for the immediate defense of Washington, and performed military duty after office-hours. After the battle of Bull Run, a Wisconsin Soldiers’ Relief Association was formed, and Mr. Whiteley was made Chairman of the Executive Committee. During the remainder of his stay in Washington, he devoted a large share of his time to looking after the welfare of “the boys” in different hospitals. During the second Bull Run battle, he was granted leave of absence from the office that he might go to the front; on this occasion he was for the first time under fire, while assisting in removing the wounded out of range of the enemy’s guns, but escaped unharmed. In 1862, he was urged to accept a position in Colorado, the Agency to the Grand River Ute Indians, and he arrived in Denver early in 1863. In the fall he purchased the Commonwealth, the oldest daily paper in Colorado. Aside from his duties as Indian Agent, he devoted every energy to assisting the State movement, and a State Constitution was adopted by a large vote in 1865. Afterward, Mr. Whiteley returned to Racine to assume his partnership with his father-in-law. In 1853, he married Jane, the eldest daughter of Albert G. Knight. To them seven children have been born, only two of whom are living--Bessie, born July 4, 1867, and Lillian, Jan. 29, 1878. One sister, Mrs. A. P. Dutton, lives in Racine; another resides at Youngstown, Ohio, while his oldest brother lives in Middlesex Co., Mass. His father died at Youngstown, Ohio, in January, 1869, and his mother is still in the enjoyment of good health and a fair degree of strength, being in the 80th year of her age; she resides with his brother in Massachusetts. Mr. Whiteley has charge of the insurance department in the business of the firm of Knight & Whiteley. He is an enthusiastic member of the Racine County Old Settlers’ Society, and has three times been elected Chairman of its Executive Committee, which position he now holds.

Born in Weybridge, Vermont, Charles moved with his parents to Racine, Wisconsin, when he was thirteen years old. The Civil War broke out shortly before he was to graduate public school. He enlisted and served with distinction in the First and Second Battles of Bull Run as well as other notable battles. Wounded severely in battle, Charles was commissioned after the war and continued his gallant and meritorious army service until he resigned in 1877. Moving to Kern County, California, Charles worked as assistant cashier of the Kern Valley Bank. He was a devout Episcopalian, friend and benefactor to the weak and helpless. Charles was drowned in the Kern River on 30 May 1892 in the heroic, yet futile, attempt to save the lives of two small children who had fallen into the rapids.93

An interesting biography of Oscar W. Kuhn appeared in Memoirs of the Miami Valley, by John Calvin Hover, written in 1920:138

The efforts of Oscar W. Kuhn, known for many years as one of the ablest and most distinguished lawyers of Hamilton County, Ohio, have proved of the greatest value of his fellow-citizens as well as to himself. He has shaped his career along worthy lines, and his talents have been discerningly directed along well-defined channels of endeavor. He is a man of distinct and forceful individuality, of marked sagacity, of undaunted enterprise and in manner he is genial, courteous and approachable. His career is such as to warrant the trust and confidence of the public and his activity in legal circles forms no unimportant chapter in the history of the county. The public is rarely mistaken in its estimation of a man, and were Mr. Kuhn not most worthy, he could not have gained the eminent position he has so long held in legal, professional and social life. By his own persistent and legitimate labors he has won for himself a name whose luster future years will most surely augment. Mr. Kuhn was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, March 11, 1861, a son of William and Eliza Kuhn, prominent residents of this city. He obtained education in its public schools and later attended the Cincinnati University from which he was graduated with the class of 1886, with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. In his senior year at the university he entered the Cincinnati Law School and after two years of hard study, graduated from that institution with the class of 1887 with the degree of Bachelor of Laws. For fourteen years then, he practiced law in partnership with Prescott Smith, and in 1900, opened an office for himself, where he continues eminently successful at the present time. For seventeen years Mr. Kuhn was on the Board of the Cincinnati University, during the last ten of which he held the office of president. In politics, Mr. Kuhn uses his prerogatives as a citizen to vote with the Republican party, and he has held office as a member of the Board of Education from 1889 to 1891. Fraternally he is a valued member of the Sigma Chi, Phi Delta Phi and Phi Beta Kappa (Golden Key) college fraternities, the University Club, and the Business Men’s Club. On the 12th day of June, 1889, at Cincinnati, Ohio, Mr. Kuhn was united in marriage with Miss Clara V. Gazlay, a daughter of Theodore and Jane Fitch Gazlay, well-known residents of Cincinnati. Mrs. Kuhn was born in Lawrenceburg, Ind., and received her education in the public schools and Hughes High School. She is a lady of refinement and culture, and her friends are without number throughout the city. She is a member of the Cincinnati Woman’s Club. To Mr. and Mrs. Kuhn has been born one son. Spencer Gazlay Kuhn, who married Medora Farrin and resides in Cincinnati, Ohio. They are the parents of two boys, viz., Spencer Farrin Kuhn and Robert Henry Kuhn.138

Lizzie and Charles are buried in Highland Cemetery, Iola, Allen County, Kansas.26, 32

Charles’ biography, excerpted here, appears in A Standard History of Kansas and Kansans, by William Elsey Connelley:34

Charles H. Apt first came to Kansas in the weeks following the first election of Grover Cleveland for the presidency. He had already been thoroughly trained and for a time had practiced law in Ohio, and deciding upon a location in Kansas, he transferred his professional interests to this state and for more than thirty years has been a successful lawyer, has acquired a large amount of farming interests, and is one of the best known citizens of Iola. He is now head of the law firm of Apt & Apt, having a son in partnership with him.

The Apt family originated in Switzerland. Mr. Apt’s grandfather, Henry Apt, was born in Pennsylvania, probably of Swiss parentage, following the business of carder and wool worker, and died at Basil in Fairfield County, Ohio.

While his parents were living in Fairfield County, Ohio, Charles H. Apt was born July 15, 1860. He has little recollection of his father, as he was only five years of age at the time of the soldier’s death. He began his education in the schools of Kewanna, Indiana, but in 1867 his mother returned to Fairfield County, Ohio, and partly by his own efforts and partly by such means as the family could afford he acquired a liberal education. He attended public school in Ohio, and in 1880 graduated from the Ohio Northern University at Ada, with a degree A. B. He also spent one year in the Ohio State University, taking a course in civil engineering. Mr. Apt had his law course in the Cincinnati Law School, where he was graduated LL. B. in 1884. Admitted to the bar in that year, he began practice at Columbus, Ohio, on July 1, and continued a member of the bar of that city until after the election in November.

On coming to Kansas he visited Topeka, Wichita and Wellington, and in January, 1885, located his professional headquarters at Pratt. From March 1885, until June 1, 1904, he was successfully engaged in practice at Pratt, and since the latter date has lived in Iola. He still looks after his extensive clientage in the civil and criminal branches of the law, his offices being at 7 1/2 West Madison Avenue.

Mr. Apt has been prospered in a business way and owns some of the best farming land of Pratt County, divided into three different tracts, consisting respectively of 160, 320 and 640 acres, altogether 1,120 acres. He also owns his residence at 222 South Oak Street in Ohio in Iola, and is on the board of directors of the State Savings Bank of Iola.

Mr. Apt is a democrat. He belongs to the Presbyterian Church, and while at Pratt he assisted in organizing Kilwinning Lodge No. 265, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, and still has his membership there. He belongs to Wichita Consistory No. 2, of the Scottish Rite, to Iola Lodge, No.43, Knights of Pythias, of which he is a past Chancellor commander, and has filled all the chairs several times. Other fraternal relations are with Ninnestah Camp, No. 1275, Modern Woodmen of America, at Pratt; with Iola Camp. No.101, Woodmen of the World; and with the Kansas Fraternal Citizens. Mr. Apt is a member of the Kansa State Bar Association.

On December 26, 1887, at Cincinnati, Ohio, he married Miss Blanche Gazlay, daughter of Carter and Lizzie (Emerson) Gazlay. Both her parents are now deceased, and her father for many years practiced law at Cincinnati, Ohio, and in Indiana. Mr. and Mrs. Apt are the parents of two children: Frederick G. and Elizabeth.

Jean is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.135 Winfield is buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.145

Much has been written about Jean Gazlay Donaldson, known mostly by her third married name, Jean Nash, and her six marriages, her celebrity as the “world’s best dressed woman,” and her other social adventures that captivated the imagination of the media and the public, such as gambling among the rich and famous. Jean fostered her own renown by authoring a series of 15 weekly chapters of autobiographical articles from 1 February through 10 May 1925 that were carried in newspapers nation-wide, among them the Milwaukee Sentinel and the Pittsburgh Press. In the articles, Jean recounts numerous anecdotes that provide fascinating insight into her life and the high style to which she was accustomed.158

Jean was born in Nutley, New Jersey, and was raised by her mother after her father died in 1904. While attending school in Dobbs Ferry, New York, Jean met and formed a relationship with John Stanley Kirwan. Her mother objected to the relationship, and so proceeded to make plans to move Jean to a school in Europe. Jean discovered the plan, and quickly eloped with Kirwan in New Jersey, which naturally shocked her mother. Their marriage was annulled in April 1913, aided by Jean’s eventual second husband, Winfield Sifton, when he engaged the services of a lawyer in New York. Jean’s marriage to Kirwan produced a son, Andrew, born in the fall of the 1910.143, 158

Jean met her second husband, Winfield Burroughs Sifton, at an embassy ball in London. Winfield was the son of Sir Clifford Sifton, who was Attorney General, Provincial Lands Commissioner and Member of Parliament of Canada. Despite Jean’s initial rejections, Winfield persisted in his desire to marry Jean, and in July 1913 he and Jean slipped away from Jean’s mother, sailing across the ocean from Europe to New York. They were married in “the oddest wedding last night that Milburn [New Jersey] had ever seen,” being married in a motor car, under the light of a street lamp, in the presence only of the reverend and two of Winfield’s friends. The wedding supper consisted of chocolate ice cream sodas served in Newark before setting out for Milburn, where they able to obtain the marriage license. Jean and Winfield’s daughter Elizabeth was born in London when the couple lived there, and Elizabeth lived with the Siftons until she died in 1950. Jean never got along with her mother-in-law, Lady Sifton, mostly over Jean’s taste in fashion.143, 146, 158, 159

Her mother Emma could never control Jean. In March 1914, Jean locked her mother in a closet and refused to let her out until Emma signed a deed of trust to the Knickerbocker Trust Co., conveying Emma’s interest in several pieces of property in Cincinnati to Jean. Emma, aided by a relative, Oscar W. Kuhn, filed suit against Jean, then Mrs. Jean Sifton, her husband Winfield, and the trust company to recover the deeded property. The suit was eventually dismissed in October 1914 on motion of counsel when the property was re-conveyed back to Emma.143, 160

Jean met her third husband John Victor Nash toward the end of her marriage with Winfield Sifton. Needing a divorce from Sifton, Jean filed for divorce in Canada since the marriage was recorded there. The divorce was finalized on 12 July 1919, and five days later Jean and John Nash were married in London. Jean’s extravagant lifestyle eventually overwhelmed John’s modest salary as a captain in the British army. Eventually he sued for divorce, which was made final in March 1923.158

Following her divorce from Nash, Jean was courted by several suitors, including Mohammad Sabit Bey, an Egyptian prince, whom she met in a casino in Cannes. Sabit pursued Jean’s affections, and they were engaged to be married. Jean broke the engagement, but eventually she agreed to marry him. She was required to adopt the Moslem faith, and she took the Moslem name of Dowlett. Jean and Sabit were married on 1 February 1925 in a Moslem church in Cairo, with only three witnesses present. Very soon, Jean learned that Sabit had incurred many debts all over Europe, and so may not be able to support her high lifestyle. Also, she and Sabit could not agree on the degree of freedom that she should be allowed. Jean was accustomed to the independence customarily allowed to American married women, whereas Sabit could not disregard the Egyptian habits of the harem and the centuries-old traditions where women are shut out from the world. They were divorced a month after they married.158, 161

Shortly after their divorce, Sabit was arrested in Paris on three charges of swindling cash, jewels, and motor cars, valued at $75,000. He pawned his first wife’s jewels that, it was claimed, were not paid for. Jean was also implicated in the alleged crime but was not arrested. Sabit was acquitted after spending a month in jail.162

In a secret Paris wedding in 1926 with only two witnesses present, Jean married Paul Dubonnet, of the Dubonnet apéritif wine family. Jean maintained her image as the “world’s best dressed woman,” living in Paris and on the Riviera. Her choices in the latest clothing styles still captured the attention of the media wherever she went. Jean frequented the great gambling resorts of the Continent, including Monte Carlo, Deauville, and Cannes, and her winnings were especially newsworthy. Eventually, she settled into a more quiet life than she had previously known, raising her and Paul’s daughter.156

Jean, Paul, and Jean’s mother Emma, stood by Jean’s son Andrew (from her first marriage) during his 1934 trial and eventual acquittal for murder. Paul, in fact, was the only witness who testified for the defense.

Although Jean’s marriage to Paul Dubonnet was her longest, nearly 22 years, it too ended in divorce, in 1948.143

In 1950, Jean married Guy Douglas Bridge Puckle, a British stock broker who traded in London and New York. Jean died on 9 February 1956 in Paris, and is buried as Jean G. D. Puckle in the Donaldson plot in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati.135, 138, 143

John Kirwan’s obituary provides a brief biographical sketch:142

Lieutenant John Stanislaus Kirwan, formerly a member of Squadron A of the New York Cavalry and son of John P. Kirwan, a well known real estate operator at Forty-fifth street and Broadway, died at his residence, No. 118 West Eighty-eighth street. His death was due to injuries received in an accident while in training at Camp Halabird [sic, Holabird], Baltimore, in 1918. He was a member of the Church of the Blessed Sacrament, where a requiem mass will be celebrated for him at nine o’clock this morning. Lieutenant Kirwan was born in this city twenty-nine years ago and was a graduate of Fordham University. He was later in business with his father until 1915, when he went overseas in a volunteer Red Cross ambulance corps, before the United States entered the war. In addition to his father he is survived by three brothers.

Winfield Burrows Sifton was the second son of Sir Clifford Sifton. Winfield went to England during the First World War, initially to deal in war material. After the Armistice, he became involved with several companies bearing such unlikely names as the Anglo-Canadian Association of Roumanian Trade and the Venezuelan Estates & Oil Company, all of which failed. Often the failures were followed by lawsuits and the despatch of substantial cheques from the elder Sifton. Winfield also managed to interest Sir Clifford, who had great hopes for his son, in the projected Montreal, Ottawa and Georgian Bay Canal Company. The project, which would have involved the construction of a huge hydro-electric power and transportation complex, ultimately embroiled the Siftons in a decade of futile litigation and cost its investors their entire stake. Eventually, the chastened Winfield returned to Toronto, where he died in 1928 at the age of 38.163

John Nash was a captain in the British army, and not at all wealthy when he married Jean Donaldson. Soon after their marriage, gown, shoe, and fur coat makers were suing Captain Nash for thousands of dollars in bills run up by his wife. It was during their divorce proceedings that the Justice McCardie, as a means of admonishment, stated that Jean was the “best dressed” and “most extravagant” woman in the world, labels by which she was identified for the rest of her life.164

Mohammed Sabit Bey was a member of a prominent Egyptian family. His father, Salah Sabit Pasha, was President of the Cairo Court of Appeal, and his uncle, Mahmoud Sabit Bey, was First Secretary of the Egyptian Ligation in London.161, 165

Sabit Bey was connected to the Egyptian ruling family through his first wife Ismat Hasan Mohsen (1897-?). She was a grand niece of King Fuad I (1868-1936) by way of the King’s half-brother, Prince Hasan Isma’il Pasha (1854-1888), whose daughter Princess Aziza Hasan (1875-1936) was Ismat Hasan Mohsen’s mother.152, 166

Paul Dubonnet was the youngest of four children of Joseph and Florence (LeBlanc) Dubonnet, and grandson of Joseph Dubonnet, founder of the famed Dubonnet apéritif wines in 1846.

Paul’s marriage to Christiane Coty in 1920 united the Dubonnet family with another powerful and wealthy family, the Coty family, world renown for perfumes and cosmetics. Paul and Christiane’s respective parents had known each other for years. Early in their marriage, Paul worked in administration for the Coty SA company in the United States.167

Paul enjoyed owning luxury sports cars. Paul, with his brother André, ordered two custom-made 1922 Hispano-Suiza Boulogne cars in order to compete in a 1922 race from Paris to Nice. Paul crashed one of the two cars prior to a race, and André crashed the other during the race. Experienced racing driver Paul Bablot won the race in a third car of the same make and model.168

Owing to his marriage to Jean Nash in 1926, and lack of a legal document to protect his pre-marital wealth, Paul was estranged by his siblings; his brother André, furious over Paul’s marriage, ran Paul and Jean’s car off the road, whereupon Paul proceeded to give his brother a beating.

Paul and Jean were in New York early in World War II. Since wine imports from France were not possible during the war, in 1942 Paul began bottling his Dubonnet wines in Philadelphia using wines from California.169

Guy Puckle was a broker with the London and New York Stock Exchanges.

Guy is listed as the assignee of three patents issued by the United Kingdom Intellectual Property Office. Two, issued on 7 February 1944 and 13 September 1945, for improvements in or relating to revolvers, pistols, and like weapons, were for the addition of a dagger or knife blade onto a pistol or revolver. The third patent, issued 31 July 1957, for improvements in or relating to framing and lighting pictures and the like, incorporated concealed lighting into a picture frame for illuminating the picture.170

He could not control his muscles, and he could not write. Andrew was taught by tutors.143 Numerous newspapers carried the story of Andrew’s trial for the stabbing death of Gilliam Sessoms with a hunting knife following a drunken argument over religion. The alleged event occurred on 10 February 1934 while they were sailing on the SS President Garfield from Europe. Sessoms died a few days after the ship docked in New York. The defense maintained that Sessoms fell on the knife after a sudden pitch of the ship. The story was newsworthy in part because of the presence during the trial of his mother, Jean Nash (née Donaldson) Dubonnet, who captivated the attention of the media and public in the 1920s as a leader of high fashion in Europe. Also at his side were Jean’s husband Paul Dubonnet, and Andrew’s grandmother, Emma (née Gazlay) Donaldson. On 2 April 1934, the jury took only twenty-seven minutes to return a not guilty verdict. Andrew was committed to the Hartford Retreat in 1941, and the State National Bank of Connecticut in Stamford were his conservators.143 Sadly, Andrew died in a fire in the Beverly Hotel, 125 East 50th Street, New York City. His badly burned body was found wedged against a door in his room on the 21st floor. The cause of the fire was unknown. Andrew was apparently living off a trust fund set up by his family.174 Andrew is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.172

The following biography of Allison Bishopric appears in Cincinnati, the Queen City, by Rev. Charles Frederic Goss.40

Born under the British flag, Allison Bishopric, now a resident of Cincinnati, possessed the courage to seek his fortune in a foreign land and met with a hearty welcome when he settled in this city ten years ago. He is today at the head of one of the flourishing business enterprises of the city and can claim many friends, who recognize his sterling qualities. He was born at Toronto, Canada, September 1, 1871, his parents being John and Ellen (Sinclair) Bishopric. He received his early education in the public schools of Toronto and there laid a foundation by intelligent effort which has materially assisted in his advancement in life. After leaving school he became connected with the shoe business in his native city and continued in that line for five years. Believing that a wider field was presented in the United States, he bade farewell to his early associations and in 1901 came to Cincinnati, Ohio, where he assisted in organizing the British American Company, which was incorporated in 1901 to deal in naval stores and to manufacture brewers’ pitch and sealing wax. Mr. Bishopric has ever since the organization of the company been president and treasurer, and A. Gazlay has filled the office of vice president, and as the company is managed by men of experience and broad ability it has from the start been a marked success. The factory of the company is at Spring Grove avenue and Winton place and fifteen persons here find employment. The products are shipped to all parts of the United States and Canada. Mr. Bishopric is also actively connected with other enterprises, among which may be named the Mastic Wall Board & Roofing Company, which was incorporated at New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1909. This company manufacturer a substitute for wall plaster and composition roofing. A building is being erected for the use of the company and the success of the business is now assured. The officers are: William Bancroft, of New Orleans, president; Allison Bishopric, vice president; and E. J. Ross, of New Orleans, secretary. William R. Park, a well known business man of Cincinnati, is a member of the board of directors. Judging by the favor with which the product offered by this company is being accepted, there is every reason to believe that its operation will at an early day extend to all the principal points in the country.

In Cincinnati, Mr. Bishopric was married to Miss Adelle Fern Gazlay, a daughter of Aribert Gazlay. Three children have been born to this union, Emerson, Allison, Jr., and Charlotte. Mr. Bishopric was reared in the Episcopal church and is a vestryman of Grace Episcopal church of Avondale. He is a stanch believer in the Bible and in his business as well as in private life aims to exemplify the teaching of the Great Book. The possessor of original ideas, which he has incorporated in his business, he has gained more than the ordinary measure of success and his industry and persistent application give promise of still greater victories. He occupies a prominent and honored position in business and social circles and is rightly classed among the representative and prosperous men of Cincinnati.

Shay and Ella C. Spurck;71, 72, 73, 74, 75 Elizabeth died June 1970 in Monterey County, California72). Their marriage ended in divorce in ca. June 1909.76 David married, second, 18 November 1909 in Seattle, King County, Washington, Madge Voe (born Marion Seaman)78 (born ca. 1884 in Illinois, the daughter of John Seaman and Jessie Devoe66, 67, 77). David married, third, 9 December 1913 in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, Layne Virginia Donaldson61, 68, 84, 85 (born 28 May 1883 in Cleveland, Bradley County, Tennessee, the daughter of John D. Donaldson and Caroline Layne Hackney;68, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83 Layne died 8 April 1956 in Mineral Wells, Palo Pinto County, Texas79, 80). David married, fourth, ca. 1925, Hope Dare (born Rosie Luetzsinger)91 (born 9 October 1908 in Ottumwa, Wapello County, Iowa, the daughter of William A. ‘Ignas’ Luetzsinger and Sarah ‘Dollie’ McCarty;86, 87, 88, 89 Hope died 31 March 1999 in Henderson, Clark County, Nevada86, 90). David is buried in Elmhurst Cemetery, Joliet, Will County, Illinois.62 Layne is buried in Bosley Cemetery, Santo, Palo Pinto County, Texas.79

David was a newspaper journalist in Chicago, Los Angeles, the Northwest, and Canada. Born in Oxford, Ohio, he was educated in the Chicago public schools. He graduated from Harvard University in 1902, and spent two years in sociological studies in New York. David joined the staff of the Chicago Evening Post around 1902, and he was the educational editor of the Chicago Tribune 1904-7. He was a frequent contributor to economic and educational reviews and articles. In 1905 he wrote “Unionizing the Schoolteachers,” describing the movement by Margaret Haley to create a national federation of teachers, a union of working women. David “cast his imagination 66 years into the future and saw a Chicago of 10 million souls.” His article included a map showing how the metropolis would expand, and his discussion touched on the future of transportation, communications, environment, education, and public services. His essay “The Making of Millionaires” was used in a 1909 Business Administration textbook. David lived and worked in British Columbia, Canada, for several years starting in 1910, and was the editor there of a weekly news magazine, Public Opinion. An article in 1912 announcing the publication called him “one of the best known newspapermen in America,” and mentions that he was the former editor of the Chicago Daily Tribune, and founder of The Red Book, The Blue Book, Opportunity Magazine of Chicago, and the Chicago Saturday Times. He was editor of Man-to-Man Magazine (later called British Columbia Magazine). Other ventures included promotion manager for Hearst newspapers on the Pacific Coast for eight years; director of advertising and circulation for The Picture Press (1920); and western exploitation manager of the Select Pictures Corporation, distributors of Selznick Pictures.70, 92, 93

David was married at least four times. His first marriage, to Elizabeth Shay, produced his only known child and ended in divorce in mid-1909. His wife initiated the divorce, having discovered his affair with Margaret Voe (purportedly born Marion Vantine, and also called Madge Voe), a vaudeville and stage actress. The marriage in Seattle between D. Ricker and Madge Seaman in November, 1909, is believed to be David and Madge Voe, although her use of the surname Seaman has not been explained. The 1910 U.S. Federal Census shows David and “Madge S. Ricker” living together in Seattle. The middle initial “S” may imply that her middle name or surname was Seaman, either by birth or previous marriage. On 17 September 1910, David Swing Ricker (“of Vancouver publisher”) and Madge Voe Ricker (“of Vancouver, married woman”) applied for permission to purchase 640 acres of land in the Cariboo Land District, British Columbia, Canada. Although no record has been found, he must have divorced Madge in 1912-13, and married Layne Virginia Donaldson in late 1913 in Oregon. A series of newspaper articles in 1914 trace their travels by foot from Vancouver, British Columbia, to San Diego, California, associated with David’s work “for the purpose of gathering data on the preparedness of the Pacific Coast for the growth of business and population expected to follow the opening of the Panama Canal.” His reporting is generally favorable to the conditions and towns along their route, although other reporters were critical of his accounts. David and Layne lived in Los Angeles in 1920, according to the U.S. Federal Census. David’s fourth marriage, to Rosie Luetzsinger (aka Hope Dare, actress) around 1925, is alluded to in newspaper articles about her subsequent marriage in 1939 to Julius Richard “Dixie” Davis, notorious racketeer associated with Dutch Shultz, New York City mobster, and their gang.66, 76, 91, 94, 95

David died on 2 June 1929 in Santa Monica, California, after an operation for appendicitis.70

Her birth surname was Seaman, as evidenced in the records of her two marriages, the marriage to Peyton Locker also showing the names of Marion’s parents. The 1910 and 1920 U.S. Federal Census records show her birthplace as Illinois. Those records, plus the 1911 Canada Census, show her age corresponding to a birth date in the range of 1884 (1910 census) to 1889 (1920 census). The Canada Census shows her birth date as December 1886.66, 67, 77, 78, 96

Marion was a vaudeville actress, performing under the names Madge Voe (undoubtedly taken from her mother’s maiden name Devoe) and later Marion Vantine. Her early work was in a theatrical road company in the mid-west states. The earliest works found where she is named as a cast member are “The Woman in the Case” (1907), and “A Knight for a Day” (1907). Her earliest Broadway credit is for her performance as Sing Wee in “A Broken Idol” (1909). Other credits include Marie Dressler’s “All Star Gambol” (1913), and “The Green Beetle” (1913). She is credited as Marion Vantine in “Fast and Grow Fat” (1916) and “Over the ’Phone” (1917).

In early 1918 she moved to Los Angeles where a 21 March, 1918 article in the Los Angeles Times stated, “Miss Vantine comes with the reputation of being a good actress—and a crackerjack golfer.” While there, she performed in “Yes or No” (1918), “Mary’s Ankle” (1918), “Under Fire” (1918), “Look Pleasant” (1918), and one of the two leading roles in “Civilian Clothes” (1919). She returned to the New York stage in 1919 again in “Civilian Clothes” (1919), and is credited with performances in “Dodo” (1920), “Seeing Things” (1920), “Beware of Dogs!” (1921), “His Queen” (1925), “Queen Mab” (1925), and “Head First” (1926).

A casting directory published for December 1932 — January 1933 lists her as Marion Vantine and Marion Vantine Locker, both with a Hollywood phone number (probably for her agent, since the number is common to many actors and actresses in the directory), although she has not been found as a cast member in any performances under the Locker name.97

Rosie listed 9 October 1908, and Ottumwa, Iowa, as her birth date and place in her social security application, the date agreeing with her age (1 year 7 months) as shown in the 1900 U.S. Federal Census, where she is found living in Iowa with her maternal grandparents. She was known as Rosie McCarty, her mother’s maiden surname, in her school years. After her mother remarried to Gerald Buxton, Rosie was returned to her mother’s household. Rosie was sometimes known as Rosie Buxton, using her step-fathervs surname.98

At age 17, Rosie married David Swing Ricker, promotion manager of a Los Angeles newspaper. With his aid, Rosie sought to get into the movies by way of beauty pageants. She won and was named the prettiest red-head in a Long Beach, California, bathing beauty contest. In 1926 she was chosen “Miss Southern California” and won as “Miss Ocean Park” in a separate California beauty contest. She changed her stage name first to Rose Dare, and later to Hope Dare. Following her husband David’s death in 1929, she headed for New York, working in a road company of “The Barker.” Her Broadway career credits include “Melody” (1933); “Ziegfeld Follies of 1934” (1934); and “Life Begins at 8:40” (1934-35).98, 99

Her beauty and growing fame attracted the attention of J. Richard “Dixie” Davis, a New York lawyer and racketeer who was the number two man to Dutch Schultz. Hope and Dixie soon became an item, although Dixie was still married at the time. When Dixie was apprehended on racketeering charges, Hope convinced Dixie to turn state’s evidence against other mob members, and after he served a one-year sentence, he and Hope married and moved west, living in Las Vegas, New Mexico, and later Los Angeles, where they raised two children.98
