Sarah GUEST (1764-1850) married James NEWBERRY (1749-1830); her father was James GUEST (??-1782), a landowner in East Nantmeal, Chester Co, PA in 1774. This branch of the GUEST family might be descended from Henry GUEST (or Gest) who immigrated to Philadelphia from Bristol, England on May 11, 1686 on the ship, "Delaware,” John Moore, master. He was a sawer from Birmingham, England who immigrated with his wife, Mary ?, and son, Henry GUEST, Jr.1599,1600 Other 17th century GUEST immigrants included William GUEST who arrived on “The Hester and Hannah” in Aug. 1682.1601 The will of James GUEST, Sr. (??- 1782) gives his offspring as above. His son, James GUEST, Jr. (??-1836), was the father of Sarah GUEST (1764-1850) who married James NEWBERRY (1749-1830) in 1784 in East Nantameal, Chester Co, PA. James GUEST, Jr. (??-1836) served as a sergeant in the Company of Capt. Caleb North in the Regiment of Col. Wayne in the Revolutionary War, and he was a Pensioner. 1602 Sara Guest (1764-1850) was probably born and married in Chester Co, PA. James GUEST (??-1782) died in 1782 when Sarah GUEST was 18 years old (and presumably living at home). Sarah GUEST (1764-1850) probably met James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) for the first time after his discharge from the Army in 1781 and married James NEWBERRY in 1784, two years after the death of her father, James GUEST (??-1782). [See the discussion above about the marriage of GUEST and NEWBERRY. James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) and Sarah GUEST (1764-1850) were living in Chester Co in 1785 and probably moved to Northumberland about 1787 (before 17901603). She died on March 3, 1850 in Point Twp, Northumberland Co, PA. 1604. Johannes HUBLER and Christina had a child (Johannes) in Centre Co on Aug. 10, 1803, and the sponsors were Nicholas Gast and Catharine.1605 Is this another Gast-HUBLER connection? It is also interesting that Albin GUEST was not on the tax rolls in 1768 (probably too young), in 1780 (he was gone in the Army) or in the will of James GUEST (perhaps he had already been given his share of the estate since he settled in Northumberland Co in 1781, one year before James GUEST died).

A. W. HUBLER (1842-1921) was raised on the farm that was managed by his widowed mother, Sara NEWBERRY (1807-1891), and his older brother, Abraham HUBLER (1834-19??), after his father, Moses HUBLER (1803-1855), had died.1646, 1647 He was only 13, but not was never a farmer or weaver like his dad. One source states that 1851 his mother, Sara NEWBERRY (1807-1891), left the farm and moved to Youngstown proper. I suspect that the correct year was 1861 (1851 would have been before his father had died). Her son, Abraham HUBLER (1834-1918) [who helped her with the farm] was 21, and soon after, he began work in the new steel mills. A. W. HUBLER (1842-1921) was 19 years old. I do not know if Sara NEWBERRY sold the farm, or just moved. During the height of the American Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln feared that the North would be invaded by the South along the Midwestern states (especially since most of the regular army was stationed in the confines of the South), so he called for citizens to sign up for a 100 day stint in the Army of the United States (called the G.A.R., the Great Army of the Republic). President Lincoln hoped that the short time of service would minimize the sacrifice and encourage enlistment. Ohio's share of the force was 30,000. The quota was rapidly filled mostly from the Ohio National Guards. The 44th battalion, a Mahoning County organization, was composed of four companies was consolidated with the 92nd Ohio volunteer infantry formed the 155th Ohio volunteer infantry. Alfred W. HUBLER (1842-1921) joined the G.A.R. at age 22 and was a member of Tod Post, G.A.R. and served in the Civil War in Company B, 155th O.V.I.1648, 1649 (as a one hundred days volunteer). He volunteered at Youngstown, OH on May 2, 1864 1650 and mustered into service on May 8, 1864 as a private.1651 The next day, the 155th OVI started for New Creek, WV. His division went through Washington, West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina (mostly garrison and escort duties) and suffered few war causalities from battle, but sickness felled many of his cohorts.1652 Typhoid fever, cholera, smallpox and other illnesses were the biggest killers in the Civil War, before there were antibiotics and sterilization techniques. An understanding of "germs" and contagion was years in the future; and if a person developed a wound in battle, he often faced certain amputation, death or both. A.W. HUBLER (1842-1921) contracted “camp fever” (typhus) at Camp Euleudid (?), VA in July 1864 (according to his notarized application for a pension in 1891; in July 1864, the OVI was in Bermuda City, City Point and Norfolk, VA then moved to Elizabeth City, NC)1653 or typhoid fever (according to family tradition as expressed by his granddaughter, Helen Hubler Shaw) in those 100 Days Service, and the effects of the disease would weaken him later.1654 Typhus is an acute, infectious, rickettsial disease transmitted by lice and fleas. Endemic (murine) typhus is common especially in Southeastern states, is carried by fleas and is an uncomfortable, but relatively benign, disease. Epidemic typhus has also been called jail fever, war fever, and camp fever, names that suggest overcrowding, under-washing, and lowered standards of living. It is rare in modern America. The body louse, which spreads the disease, has a powerful sucking mouth. As it sucks the blood of a typhus victim, rickettsias (the actual cause of typhus) pass into the louse's gut, where they invade the intestinal cells. They multiply and the cells burst after a few days, releasing hordes of rickettsias into the louse's intestinal canal. These either re-infect other cells or are passed out in the louse's feces. Lice leave a body when it gets too hot from fever or too cold from death and crawl to another human host. The clothing of a heavily infested typhus patient is contaminated with louse feces, and careless removal of it may raise a cloud of infected dust in the air and, in this way, spread typhus to others. The rickettsias are a family of microorganisms named for a U.S. pathologist, Howard T. Ricketts, who died of typhus in 1910 while investigating the spread of the disease.1655 The epidemic is louse borne (the organism, Pediculus humanus, is carried by body lice). The disease is characterized by high fever, intractable headache, and rash. Temperature reaches 104° F in several days and remains high. Headache is generalized and intense. On the 4th to 6th day, a rash develops and spreads. Prostration is due to low blood pressure, may be followed by vascular collapse. Now with antibiotics, fatalities are rare, but untreated epidemic typhus killed adults in the double-digits. Mortality still increases with age. Synonyms include typhus fever, malignant fever (in the 1850s), jail fever, hospital fever, ship fever, putrid fever, brain fever, bilious fever, spotted fever, petechial fever, and camp fever. The disease is most common in wartime with close contact and poor hygiene.1656 [In 1997, the treatment is broad-spectrum antibiotics (tetracycline) and control of dehydration. Because there is no vaccination available (or any planned), prevention is most important. Typhus is not new. In the 17th century, Napoleon lost thousands of his men to typhus in Russia - as did the Russians who caught it from their enemy. Many historians believe that Napoleon would have won were it not for the might of his opponents "General Winter, General Famine and General Typhus."] DDT was used extensively (and effectively) during World War II, but newer (and safer) insecticides are applied.] A. W. HUBLER (1842-1921) mustered out on Aug. 27, 1864 at Camp Dennison in Ohio.1657 Many photographs of various battalions of the G. A.R. have been identified, but those of Company B have not been found (they said to try later).1658, 1659 Also, the Recorder's Office of Mahoning Co, Ohio has no discharge papers on file for Alfred Wick HUBLER in the Civil War,1660 but the Department of the Interior, Bureau of Pensions has many official documents and paid a pension for almost thirty years.1661 Bureaucrats strike again. After the Civil War, A. W. HUBLER (1842-1921) worked in the Youngstown steel mills (the major employer at that time) as a “boiler” and later as a "puddler.” The 1875 Youngstown City Directory lists Alfred as a “boiler,” while in 1879; 1883 he was a “puddler,”1662 and in 1890 he was a puddler at Brown, Bonnell & Co. 1663 Iron was smelted by a process that heats the iron ore (which was mined in Pennsylvania and Ohio) to high degrees. “Boilers” were workers who initiated and oversaw the heating process in the formation of pig or wrought iron. It was a very labor-intensive, blue-collar job, which often eventuated in a more technical occupation in the iron industry. “Puddlers” were a prime example of skilled labor in 19th century iron and steel mills. These workers performed the first step in removing impurities from the pig iron and shaping the molten metal into a pasty ball weighing about 150 pounds. When the puddler thought the iron was of the proper consistency, other workers removed it from the furnace and ran it through squeezers to make a "muck bar" free of impurities. Skilled laborers known as rollers then took the mass of metal and rolled it between grooved cylinders on a finishing mill, producing more iron. Puddlers and rollers were "key laborers" in any iron works, and they jealously guarded their skills, acquired by long years of experience.”1664 On June 25, 1868,1665 A.W. HUBLER (1842-1921) married Kate (Anna Catherine) STRALEY (1846-1934), a German immigrant who had been reared in Youngstown, Ohio (see the STRALEY family). [On the wedding license, the bride’s name was an informal “Kate,” and it was co-signed by J. Johnson, a probate judge, and John Peate, a ME church minister.]1666 Neither had been previously married.1667 They raised eight children in Youngstown, the steel town. 1668 For many years, A.W. HUBLER (1842-1921) worked for Brown-Bonnell Co (steel) and was President of Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers for the region.1669, 1670 The Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers was founded in 1876 to represent the workers against the iron and steel company owners. It was a time when six-day workweeks, twelve-hour workdays and child labor were the norm. No one represented the workers. The union went through hard times when organizers were brutally beaten and their lives threatened; and any worker who joined the group faced immediate dismissal, so the society held secret meetings and used passwords. In 1892, a bitter labor strike (the Homestead Strike) against the biggest steel company of the land, the Carnegie Company (in 1892 it became U.S. Steel) was broken by company-hired police-thugs and state militia. It was not until the roaring 1920s after the Great Depression that President Franklin Roosevelt started the New Deal and Congress passed the Labor Relations Act that recognized workers’ rights. In 1942, the United Steelworkers became the workers’ union.1671 But, he quit the demanding rigors of steel work before the usual retirement age. The effects of camp (typhus) fever during his youth had weakened Alfred Wick HUBLER (1842-1921), so he left the strenuous work in the steel mill and worked for his brother-in-law making candy and later for his son (Edwin HUBLER) laying cement for Eureka College.1672 In 1920, he listed his occupations during his life as “puddler, clerk and contractor.” 1673 On Aug. 15, 1891, A.W. HUBLER (1842-1921) applied to the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Pensions for a pension based on disability (“rheumatism, fever and diarrhea”), which was contracted while he served in the Civil War in Virginia in July 1864. On April 13, 1891, he modified a statement from a previous application for a pension in which he described the physical disability that occurred because of his Civil War service. Alfred Wick HUBLER (1842-1921) testified in front of a notary public that in July 1864 (while in the OH Volunteers) that he had “contracted chronic diarrhea and resulting piles” and “a disease of the nervous system and partial paralysis the result of camp fever” (claim # 1,013,882).1674 He did receive a pension (certificate # 7672166) until his death on Dec. 20, 1921 [when he died it was $72/month] was renewed annually (and later quarterly). 1675 After his death, his widow, Catharine (STRALEY) HUBLER received a widow’s pension (certificate # 921228) of $36/month until her death in January 1934 [the amount seems paltry in today’s terms, but was significant especially in destitution days of the Great Depression.1676] It is unclear to me about his Civil War-related disability. In a notarized affidavit on April 13, 1891 in an effort to obtain a pension, A. W. HUBLER (1842-1921) testified he contracted a “disease of nervous system and a partial paralysis [as] the result of camp fever.”1677 Such neurological conditions are not the usual sequella of typhus or typhoid fever. In subsequent applications, he added rheumatism, gastrointestinal pain and chronic diarrhea, and GI symptoms are associated with typhoid. Typhus (camp fever) was an acute epidemic disease that is lethal for some (usually because of acute dehydration and high fever); but in young soldiers, it is not usually deadly, but it is temporarily debilitating and effectively ends the ability to fight battles. Typhus is not usually (by itself) associated with “rheumatism,” chronic diarrhea or paralysis; however, the disease can give an opportunistic disease a chance to begin. A slim man of medium height (5 feet, 8 inches)1678 with a dark white completion1679 who sported a distinctive, pencil-thin, black mustache, blue eyes1680 and a dark, combed coiffure, 1681,1682,1683 A. W. HUBLER (1842-1921) was a dapper dresser who was proud of his handsome, rakish appearance. He was called “Al.”1684 In 1918, the glint in his eyes that was caught in his fiftieth wedding anniversary photograph showed that his septuagenarian exterior was a facade. His picture in his obituary showed his proud countenance sporting round, wire glasses,1685 while earlier photographs did not demonstrate eyewear. The 1875 Youngstown City Directory lists Alfred as living on Wood St. near Watt, while in 1879 at 20 Summit Ave., and 1883 he resided at 239 Summit Ave.1686 For most of his life, A.W. HUBLER (1842-1921) owned a stately home in Youngstown located at 218 W. Rayen Avenue, and he died there [his son-in-law, Francis Patterson, and his daughter, Grace HUBLER Patterson (who was a caretaker during the last years of his life), apparently lived there also since she listed that as her mailing address on Oct. 12, 1920 and Francis Patterson recorded that as his residence on the death certificate in 1921]. Sometime after A.W. HUBLER (1842-1921) died in 1921, Grace HUBLER Patterson purchased a home at 2301 Volney Rd., Youngstown, OH, and it became the HUBLER stronghold for generations. 1687,1688 Grace HUBLER Patterson was 32 in 1920 [her husband, Francis S. Patterson, was alive (he died in 1947) and signed a pension declaration in 1920], and she bought the Volney Rd. house and lived there (with her husband until his death in 1947) with several single or widowed sisters and her mother, Kate STRALEY (1846-1934), who died there. In 1915, Grace HUBLER was still single,1689 but by 1920, she had married Francis Patterson. 1690 The family tradition was that she married late in life, had no children, became a widow and took care of many of her siblings at her home on Volney Rd. Figuring from the known data, A.W. HUBLER, Kate STRALEY, Grace HUBLER Patterson, Francis Patterson, Ada HUBLER, and Clara HUBLER all lived at Rayen Rd. until after the death of A.W. HUBLER in 1921 when the surviving HUBLERs moved to Volney Rd. Subsequently, Kate (1934), Francis (1947), and Grace (1952) died, Clara moved to FL (1960) and Nora (? 1956) moved to a nursing homes, and Helen Oldaker Shaw moved to Florida with her husband prior to his death in 1947. Helen Shaw probably inherited the house and sold it in 19601691 when she took her aunt Clara (19601692) to Florida. The house on Volney Rd. still stands and is well maintained, but it holds no HUBLERs. It appears modest in size, is two-storied and has multiple bedrooms. A search of the Youngstown tax records showed that the house was built in 1922 (so it was new when it was purchased by the HUBLERs), was about 2,200 sq. ft., had 4 bedrooms and 1½ bathrooms and had a detached garage built in 1930 (undoubtedly by Grace HUBLER Patterson).1693 The property on Rayen Ave. is vacant of buildings. 1694 Alfred Wick HUBLER (1842-1921) died at 4:05 AM, Tuesday, Dec. 20, 1921 at his home on Rayden Ave., and the funeral services were held at the family home. Interment was at Oak Hill Cemetery1695 on Dec. 22, 1921.1696 [Apparently, the Mahoning County Soldiers Relief Fund gave assistance for his burial. He probably died penniless and interstate (no will or estate papers are on file;1697 he had been unable to work for 11 years before he died. 1698]. He was 79 years old when he died. The cause of death was arteriosclerosis, "infirmities of age" and senile dementia.1699,1700 [The physician who signed the death certificate was “H.E. Welch, M.D.,” 1701 and I wonder if he was related to his brother-in-law’s family, the Welch’s]. In old age, he had became "senile," his mind failed, and he would wander off.1702 In 1921, his daughter, Clara B. HUBLER Patterson, sought financial aid from the Department of the Interior testifying that for two years (Jan. 10, 1920-Dec. 20, 1921) he required constant help, being unable to dress/undress, go to the toilet, feed himself, etc. She also described short periods of mental clarity and times of severe memory loss (but did not relate any violent behavior). The caretakers were his wife, Kate STRALEY (1846-1934), and his daughter, Grace HUBLER Patterson.1703 Today he would probably be diagnosed as a victim of Alzheimer's disease. [Several of his children and all of his grandchildren (including my father) developed classical Alzheimer’s disease late in their lives.] Kate (Anna Catherine) STRALEY (1846-1934) died at 1:30 PM on Jan. 13, 1934 at home of her daughter Mrs. F.S. (Grace) Patterson, 2301 Voleny Rd., Youngstown, Ohio1704 at the age of almost 88 years. 1705 She was interred on Jan. 15, 1934 in Oak Hill Cemetery, lot # 291 (in the HUBLER family plot--the later generations are buried in Forrest Lawn Cemetery, Youngstown1706). The cause of death was unknown—senility, 1707 a stroke, 1708, old age and sclerosis1709 were all suggested. Her death certificate states the cause of death as “old age, and sclerosis cerbro-spinal-arterio” (the diagnosis was clinical; no autopsy was performed). 1710 After all, this spunky lady was 87 ½ years old at her death1711—quite a feat at that time (and this)! After her death on Feb. 15, 1934, her daughter, Clara B. HUBLER, sought reimbursement for expenses associated with her burial ($313.56). [In her affidavit, she lists the following (mostly daughters) as helping during the last of her life at the family home at 2301 Volney Rd., Youngstown, OH: Clara B. HUBLER, Ada HUBLER, Nora Oldaker and Francis Hartman (I do not know who he was—the name was clearly written on the affidavit (specifically, it was not Francis Patterson—and strangely Grace HUBLER Patterson are not listed.]. Kate STRALEY (11846-1934) apparently was serious ill only for three days before her death. She was very elderly, but her physician, D.E. Montgomery (2286 Voleny Rd.) only cared for her for the last three days (and his bill was $9).1712 When Kate (Anna Catherine) STRALEY (1846-1934) died, she left three half brothers--Daniel Goeltz of Youngstown, John Goeltz of Youngstown and William Goeltz of Canton, five daughters--Mrs. F. S. (Grace) HUBLER Patterson, Clara HUBLER, Ada HUBLER, Mrs. Nora (HUBLER) Oldaker and Mrs. Clarence (Amy) HUBLER McFadden and two sons--Lloyd L. HUBLER (of Birmingham) and Edwin L. HUBLER (of Youngstown).1713 She was a member of Trinity M. E. Church.1714 For more information about Kate (Catherine) STRALEY (1846-1934) please se The Straley Story by W.R. HUBLER, Jr. Neither A.W. HUBLER (1842-1921) nor and Catherine STRALEY (1846-1934) left a will; however, A.W. HUBLER (1842-1921) sold his property to his wife (Catherine STRALEY) before he died for $1, and she sold property to Alex G. Duncan for $1.1715 (In the obituary of Pyatt HUBLER, a nephew of A.W. HUBLER (1842-1921), states that he had a stepdaughter named Mrs. Alex G. Duncan.)1716 Yüklə 1,42 Mb. Dostları ilə paylaş:
