Notes for MARY E. SMITH:
Oscar used to tell of going to "Grandma" Campbells house when he was very young. He said she had very straight long black hair. She would go into the pantry and get an egg and hide it behind her so the kids wouldn't see what she had.  She would then use it for whatever she was cooking.  This behavior must have been from her Indian background.

 ii. CHARLES E. CAMPBELL, b. 1912, Norway Ridge home, Woodhull, Steuben Co, NY; d. December 1952, St. James Hospital, Hornell, Steuben Co, NY.

Notes for CHARLES E. CAMPBELL:
Charles was just 39 years old when he needed hernia surgery. He entered St. James Hospital shortly before Christmas in 1952.  He developed hiccups after surgery and they would not stop so he was kept in the hospital.  Christmas eve, Oscar decided to stay with Charles all night as he was not doing very well. He was not making any verbal sense. The nurses said he could not stay, to go home and they would be watching him.  They were having a floor Christmas party. Charles got out of bed and wandered out of the hospital into the cold in pajamas and bare feet. It was very cold that night. When the nurses finally, 2 hours later discovered him missing, they sent people to look for him and found him with his feet frost bitten and suffering from hypothermia.  He died shortly after that. His mother tried to sue the hospital for wrongful death, but Attorney Knapp said you could not sue a mercy institution and nothing more was done. The laws then were much different than today. 

Charles owned a farm with his mother Carrie on the Woodhull-Borden Road. He had never married or had children.  Oscar and Flora later lived on the same farm.

A BRIEF SKETCH OF HIS LIFE AND CHARACTER
To the Editor of the Agitator

Osceola, May 18, 1883, - Gaylord G. Colvin eldest son of Joshua and Dorothy Colvin was born in Herkimer County, N. Y., May 11th 1801, and died in this borough May 8, 1883. He came from Herkimer county with his father in 1800 and settled in the township of Deerfield on the land now occupied by Academy Corners. He taught the first school in the old “Liberty” school house at that place in 1821.

There were eleven children in his fathers family, four of whom are now living - a brother and sister in Bingham, Potter county, Pa., a sister in Laporte, Ind., and a brother at Weiser City, Idaho.

From Academy Corners Judge Colvin moved back to Herkimer county, where he married Ruth Colvin, who for 58 years has shared with him life’s joys and sorrows. From Herkimer he moved to Oneida county, thence to Spring Mills, Allegany county, thence to Bingham, Pa., and from there to Osceola in 1872, where he died in great peace, loved and mourned by all.

While a resident of New York he was for several years Justice of the Peace, and he was Commissioner of Potter county six years, and upon the expiration of that term he was elected Associate Judge, and served as such ten years. In all these offices he discharged his duties with credit to himself and to the satisfaction of his constituents.

Judge Colvin was early converted under Dr. Sheardown’s preaching and joined the Baptist Church, in which he lived and died. 

He began life poor, but by honest and upright dealing secured the esteem of the community, and gained sufficient means to surround himself and family with a sufficiency of earthly comforts. He was a man of marked qualities - a man of positive convictions. Once convinced that a certain line of conduct was right, he followed it to the end irrespective of consequences. He was a strong temperance man, and the last act of his life - when his hand could no longer hold the pen to write his well-known signature - was to authorize his son to sign his name to remonstrance against license in Osceola.

A worthy citizen, a kind neighbor, an affectionate brother, father, husband, has gone to his reward; and while we bow in submission to the stroke, knowing it is his gain, we will endeavor to profit by his teaching and example. Rev. S. M. Dayton 

• He was a Quaker then a Baptist. 

Gaylord married Ruth Hiltz COLVIN [106] [MRIN: 53], daughter of Christopher COLVIN [114] and Elizabeth HILTZ [112], on 28 Oct 1824 in Snells Bush, Herkimer Co., NY. Ruth was born on 18 Apr 1808 in Herkimer Co., NY, was baptized on 22 Nov 1809 in Reformed Church Of Herkimer, Herkimer Co., NY, died on 10 Apr 1900 in Osceola, Tioga Co., PA at age 91, and was buried in Osceola/Fairview Cem.

__________
Born April 8, 1808 - Died April 10, 1900
Biographical Sketch of One of the Oldest Residents in Tioga Co.

Ruth, third child of Christopher Colvin and Elizabeth Hiltz, was born at Herkimer, N. Y., April 18, 1808. She died at Osceola Pa., April 10, 1900. She therefore lacked eight days of being 92 years old at the time of her decease. 

The Colvin family have been 200 years in America. John Colvin the founder of this family settled at Dartmouth, Mass., about the year 1700. From Dartmouth he removed to Providence, R. I., in 1705. In round numbers the ancesters of Ruth Colvin lived 100 years thereafter in Rhode Island. Not far from the year 1800 her father removed from Rhode Island to the Mohawk valley in N. Y., and for 100 years has resided in New York and Pennsylvania. Ruth Colvin was of the sixth generation in decent from John Colvin, the immigrant ancestor.

Elizabeth Hiltz, mother of Ruth Colvin, was a daughter of John Hiltz, a Palatinate German, whose father settled in the Mohawk Valley in 1722.

Ruth Colvin received such education as the primitive schools of the period of her youth afforded. She was educated in the schools in the common branches of the English language, although in her home she spoke with equal facility both German and English. When she was sixteen years and six months old, she married her cousin, Gaylord Griswold Colvin, and their married life continued over a period of almost fiftynine years. Their marriage took place at Shells Bush, Herkimer county, N. Y., October 28, 1824, where they set up their housekeeping in a very modest way. For eight years they lived in five different places in Herkimer county. In 1832 they came to Allegany county, N. Y., and lived at Independence and Spring Mills in that county until 1848 - a period of sixteen years. In 1848 they removed to Potter county, Pa., and lived on three different farms in Bingham township until 1872 - a period of twenty-four years. During six years of this period her husband was a commissioner, and during ten years he was an associate judge of Potter county Pa. In 1872 they removed to Osceola Pa., where they purchased a residence known as the “Gothic”, just west of the village. In this home, in 1883, her husband died, since which time she made her home with her daughter and with her son, making in all a residence of twenty-eight years in this place.

Mrs. Colvin was the mother of seventeen children. Amoung these children were four pairs of twins. Fourteen of her children died at birth or in infancy, or early youth, thus leaving but three who grew to manhood and womanhood. These survive her, namely: B. F. Colvin of this place, D. C. Colvin of Woodhull, N. Y., and Mary, wife of C. L. Hoyt of Horseheads, N.Y.

Mrs. Colvin became converted to the religion of Jesus Christ under the preaching of the Rev. Thomas Sheardown at Whitesville, N. Y. She was baptized by immersion by the Rev. V. Chase and became a member of the Baptist Church in 1837. She remained in connection with this denomination of Christian believers until about seven years ago, when she united with the Methodist Episcopal Church of Osceola. Her religious experiences were deep and sincere, but she was quiet and undemonstrative in expressing them.

Mrs. Colvin was fond of society, and when health and strength permitted loved to surround herself with company - especially the company of young people. In this social inclination her husband joined, and their home for many years was a neighborhood resort for both young and old. Her disposition was very amiable. She was always inclined to be pleased with whatever was done for her. She was unselfish. Her first thought was for others, not for herself. This frame of mind made her charitable and kind and helpful to those about her. These characteristics inspired love and after this long pilgramage of ninety-two years in this world, her remains were laid to rest with feelings of veneration and chastened sorrow on the part of her kindred and many friends.

The funeral, in charge of her pastor, the Rev. John Segwald, was held at the home of her son B. F. Colvin, where she died, Thursday, April 10th, 1900 at 1 p. m.

• Biography: The Colvin Tale 

by William Harry Linder

[written abt. 1972]

James and Kathryn Colvin had three children: Mary, Albert and William. James was in business in
Chicago the first we know about him. He had been born in New York State, and there had
married Kathryn Gardner. They moved to Chicago, where he set up a dry goods store. The little
town of Chicago was started in a valley or swale which the Indians named Skunk Hollow, the
Indian name (Chicago). Since the town was near the Lake shore, the children became good
swimmers and skaters. Most of their leisure time was spent on the Lake. James was a proper,
dignified aristocrat, and brought up his children in a strict manner requiring perfect manners and
habits. Uncle Albert came West to visit us, and we were all impressed with his gentlemanly
appearance, and his perfect manners. But we are concerned here mainly with Mary. I knew her
well, for she lived in our home for twenty years, after Grandfather died, and she was always a
perfect lady.

In the little town of Chicago they were all acquainted, and did a lot of visiting. Mary and her
parents knew Abraham Lincoln well. They also knew his wife, and her parents, the Todds. Mary
told this story many times, but always with her hand covering her eyes. It seems Mrs. Todd had
beautiful silverware, and being very proud of it, she had her initials engraved on each piece. Her
full name was Fanny Anne Rachel Todd.

Mary learned early in life that she had prophetic dreams. She was invited to a dinner party at
Marshall Field's home, and the night before the party she dreamed she met a big, tall, handsome
left-handed sailor, fell in love with him and married him. She wasn't at all surprised when Field
introduced his partner in business to her, for she immediately recognized him as the man of her
dream. They were married soon after.

Now we will go back to Nelson Haven, for that is the man she met and married. He was known
now as Captain Haven, later as Cap.

He was a big, husky, six-foot-two adventurer, and brawler. I remember seeing a dent in his
forehead, where someone had hit him with an axe when he was a young man. Although he had a
good business and a family of three girls, Cap became restless in time. He could think of nothing
and talk of nothing but the gold rush to California. His plan was to strike it rich, then come back to
Chicago, or take his family to a new location in the West. Mary consented, and for fear the news
would cause him to change his plans, did not tell him that they had another baby on its way. He
left Chicago in June, 1859. I don't know how he traveled the first part of his trip across the plains,
but the last half across the mountains, was on foot. In crossing the Cascades, probably Donner
Pass, he and eight other men were caught in a snow storm that turned into a blizzard, which
stopped them. They almost starved. They made soup from the raw-hide on their snow shoes,
hoping it would give them enough nourishment to sustain them. When the blizzard stopped, Cap
was the only one strong enough to hunt. He killed two mountain goats. He hid one, and carried
one into camp and cooked it. The men were so hungry, he had to fight them back until the meat
was cooked, then would let them eat only a small amount at a time. When that goat was gone, he
went out and brought the other to camp. By the time this second goat was gone, the men were
strong enough to go on to Sacramento Valley.

By the time he arrived, the gold fields were all filed on and pretty well washed out. Cap started a
packing business, and delivered supplies to the miners by mule pack train. He stayed on here
about three years, and when he heard of a gold strike in Colorado, he pulled out, again seeking
gold. He was luckier there, and made a little fortune, but digging gold was too tame so he and a
partner established a horse ranch.

A word about his partner. His name was Joel McKee. He was a giant of a man, with long, curly
blond hair, of which he was very proud. Each morning before a long ride, he would wrap his curls
in paper to keep dust from getting on them. He was so proud of his hair and of his strength, he
would have two men hand all their weight from his hair, then would get up and walk with them
hanging on. Years later Cap was to learn that Joel McKee was a cousin of Cassey McKee
Linder. In a letter to his cousin, Joel said "Give my regards to my tried and true friend, Cap
Haven."

We might record here an amusing incident which demonstrates how lightly Cap considered
danger. He was away from camp, and about dark was ambushed by Indians. They surrounded
him, and he was caught in their crossfire. Because of their poor marksmanship and the dark, he
was able to fight his way through without a scratch. When he returned to camp and related his
story, the men asked how many Indians he killed. He replied, "I don't know how many, but I do
know I got as many of them as they got of me."

It was while Cap was on his horse ranch that he met his only relative, since he left home. He met
William F. Cody, (Buffalo Bill), and in their conversation they discovered they were cousins. They
became fast friends.

The partners soon built up a large horse herd and were prospering, but at that time Indian trouble
was common. A band of Indians stole some of the partners finest horses, and they immediately
applied to the Governor of Colorado Territory for permission to arm men and go after the horses.
At that time Colorado was handling Indians very carefully so as not to stir them up, and the
Governor refused permission. The partners took things into their own hands, outfitted one hundred
men with rifles, horses and saddles, and went out after their stolen stock. While scouting Cap got
lost, and seeing the fires of a big camp and supposing it was his, rode right into the Indian camp.
Cap, knowing how to handle Indians, rode boldly up to the Chief's teepee, ordered his horse
cared for, food for himself and a bed for the night. He also ordered the return of all his horses.
They did all they could to make him comfortable, and sent a scout with him the next morning to
guide him back to his own camp.

The partners got their horses back, but it didn't do them any good. The Governor immediately
ordered their arrest on a charge of treason, (outfitting and arming an army without consent).

Cap and Joel spent eight months in prison before they were released. By the time they got their
freedom their horses were scattered all over the West. Then word came of a gold strike in the
Boise Basin. Here Cap found gold. He took in a partner named Crawford. They worked their
mine for awhile and found it rich in gold-bearing ore. They cleaned up enough to buy equipment,
and Cap took a wagon and team and drove to The Dalles where he found the supplies and things
they needed. He loaded it on the wagon and drove back to the Basin, only to find his partner had
sold out the mine for a lot of money and skipped out. By that time all the claims had been taken,
but there was word that up near Lewiston, at Florence there were some rich diggings. Cap
decided to go to Florence.

His plan was to go up the Weiser River, over to the Salmon River, and thus to Florence. There
were a few settlers along the lower Weiser River, and Cap stopped at one of these homes to
spend the night. These people had recently come from Illinois, and were receiving a Chicago
paper. Cap read the paper from front to back. He then sat down to do some serious thinking. He
was homesick. He wanted his family. Cap had not written his family for ten years, and of course
had not received any word from them for they had no idea where he was. The paper stated that
an old friend of his, James Beveridge, had been elected Governor of Illinois. Cap stayed on in the
Weiser River Valley, and wrote to Governor Beveridge, asking the Governor to locate his family
for him and tell them he wanted to get in touch with them. In the meantime, after ten years, Mary
had decided Cap was dead, had him declared legally dead and had remarried. She had moved to
Muskegon, Michigan. Governor Beveridge gave Mary Cap's address, and sent Mary's address to
Cap. Letters started going back and forth with the result that Mary, who still loved Cap, got her
second marriage annulled, got on the train and rode to Kelton, Utah, the nearest railway stop to
Weiser Valley. With Mary came three girls, plus one who had been born in October, after Cap
left in June. This last girl was Minnie, who was now eleven years old. Also with Mary came her
Father and Mother, who felt they could not let Mary set out on such a journey without their help.
They had no intention of letting Mary go alone to the wild west to meet that wild adventurous
husband of hers.

In the meantime, Cap was on his way to Kelton. He got a spring wagon and a good team of
horses, and made the journey of over seven hundred miles, met his family and brought them to his
homestead. I don't have any details of the trip home except that it was a tiring but happy journey,
especially for Minnie, who was seeing her father for the first time. I have a picture in my mind of
aristocratic Great Grandfather Colvin, wearing his broadcloth cutaway coat, white shirt, high, stiff
collar and a stove-pipe hat. I doubt that it was a pleasure trip for him. Great grandfather came to
like and respect Cap, and after they saw how things were out here, went back to Chicago, sold
their property, and returned to Weiser to live with Cap and Mary. Great grandmother Kathryn
died November 13, 1888. Great-grandfather James, who was feeling fine and had gone duck
hunting on the morning of her death, lived only nine days after she died. He died November 22,
1888. They died on the Haven Ranch. Cap Haven died March 3, 1906. After his death, Mary
lived with Doc and Minnie until her death. She died April 6, 1928. She was ninety-three years
old.

Born April 8, 1808 - Died April 10, 1900
Biographical Sketch of One of the Oldest Residents in Tioga Co.

Ruth, third child of Christopher Colvin and Elizabeth Hiltz, was born at Herkimer, N. Y., April 18, 1808. She died at Osceola Pa., April 10, 1900. She therefore lacked eight days of being 92 years old at the time of her decease. 

The Colvin family have been 200 years in America. John Colvin the founder of this family settled at Dartmouth, Mass., about the year 1700. From Dartmouth he removed to Providence, R. I., in 1705. In round numbers the ancesters of Ruth Colvin lived 100 years thereafter in Rhode Island. Not far from the year 1800 her father removed from Rhode Island to the Mohawk valley in N. Y., and for 100 years has resided in New York and Pennsylvania. Ruth Colvin was of the sixth generation in decent from John Colvin, the immigrant ancestor.

Elizabeth Hiltz, mother of Ruth Colvin, was a daughter of John Hiltz, a Palatinate German, whose father settled in the Mohawk Valley in 1722.

Ruth Colvin received such education as the primitive schools of the period of her youth afforded. She was educated in the schools in the common branches of the English language, although in her home she spoke with equal facility both German and English. When she was sixteen years and six months old, she married her cousin, Gaylord Griswold Colvin, and their married life continued over a period of almost fiftynine years. Their marriage took place at Shells Bush, Herkimer county, N. Y., October 28, 1824, where they set up their housekeeping in a very modest way. For eight years they lived in five different places in Herkimer county. In 1832 they came to Allegany county, N. Y., and lived at Independence and Spring Mills in that county until 1848 - a period of sixteen years. In 1848 they removed to Potter county, Pa., and lived on three different farms in Bingham township until 1872 - a period of twenty-four years. During six years of this period her husband was a commissioner, and during ten years he was an associate judge of Potter county Pa. In 1872 they removed to Osceola Pa., where they purchased a residence known as the “Gothic”, just west of the village. In this home, in 1883, her husband died, since which time she made her home with her daughter and with her son, making in all a residence of twenty-eight years in this place.

Mrs. Colvin was the mother of seventeen children. Amoung these children were four pairs of twins. Fourteen of her children died at birth or in infancy, or early youth, thus leaving but three who grew to manhood and womanhood. These survive her, namely: B. F. Colvin of this place, D. C. Colvin of Woodhull, N. Y., and Mary, wife of C. L. Hoyt of Horseheads, N.Y.

Mrs. Colvin became converted to the religion of Jesus Christ under the preaching of the Rev. Thomas Sheardown at Whitesville, N. Y. She was baptized by immersion by the Rev. V. Chase and became a member of the Baptist Church in 1837. She remained in connection with this denomination of Christian believers until about seven years ago, when she united with the Methodist Episcopal Church of Osceola. Her religious experiences were deep and sincere, but she was quiet and undemonstrative in expressing them.

Mrs. Colvin was fond of society, and when health and strength permitted loved to surround herself with company - especially the company of young people. In this social inclination her husband joined, and their home for many years was a neighborhood resort for both young and old. Her disposition was very amiable. She was always inclined to be pleased with whatever was done for her. She was unselfish. Her first thought was for others, not for herself. This frame of mind made her charitable and kind and helpful to those about her. These characteristics inspired love and after this long pilgramage of ninety-two years in this world, her remains were laid to rest with feelings of veneration and chastened sorrow on the part of her kindred and many friends.

The funeral, in charge of her pastor, the Rev. John Segwald, was held at the home of her son B. F. Colvin, where she died, Thursday, April 10th, 1900 at 1 p. m. 

Ruth married Gaylord Griswold COLVIN [105] [MRIN: 53], son of Joshua COLVIN [107] and Dorothea CASLER [108], on 28 Oct 1824 in Snells Bush, Herkimer Co., NY. Gaylord was born on 11 May 1801 in Pittsfield Twp., Otsego Co., NY, died on 8 May 1883 in Osceola, Tioga Co., PA at age 81, and was buried in Osceola/Fairview Cem. Tioga Co., PA Lot#228.

A BRIEF SKETCH OF HIS LIFE AND CHARACTER
To the Editor of the Agitator

Osceola, May 18, 1883, - Gaylord G. Colvin eldest son of Joshua and Dorothy Colvin was born in Herkimer County, N. Y., May 11th 1801, and died in this borough May 8, 1883. He came from Herkimer county with his father in 1800 and settled in the township of Deerfield on the land now occupied by Academy Corners. He taught the first school in the old “Liberty” school house at that place in 1821.

There were eleven children in his fathers family, four of whom are now living - a brother and sister in Bingham, Potter county, Pa., a sister in Laporte, Ind., and a brother at Weiser City, Idaho.

From Academy Corners Judge Colvin moved back to Herkimer county, where he married Ruth Colvin, who for 58 years has shared with him life’s joys and sorrows. From Herkimer he moved to Oneida county, thence to Spring Mills, Allegany county, thence to Bingham, Pa., and from there to Osceola in 1872, where he died in great peace, loved and mourned by all.

While a resident of New York he was for several years Justice of the Peace, and he was Commissioner of Potter county six years, and upon the expiration of that term he was elected Associate Judge, and served as such ten years. In all these offices he discharged his duties with credit to himself and to the satisfaction of his constituents.

Judge Colvin was early converted under Dr. Sheardown’s preaching and joined the Baptist Church, in which he lived and died. 

He began life poor, but by honest and upright dealing secured the esteem of the community, and gained sufficient means to surround himself and family with a sufficiency of earthly comforts. He was a man of marked qualities - a man of positive convictions. Once convinced that a certain line of conduct was right, he followed it to the end irrespective of consequences. He was a strong temperance man, and the last act of his life - when his hand could no longer hold the pen to write his well-known signature - was to authorize his son to sign his name to remonstrance against license in Osceola.

A worthy citizen, a kind neighbor, an affectionate brother, father, husband, has gone to his reward; and while we bow in submission to the stroke, knowing it is his gain, we will endeavor to profit by his teaching and example. Rev. S. M. Dayton 

• He was a Quaker then a Baptist.

COLVIN, HARVEY DOOLITTLE [1815-92], Mayor of Chicago [1873-76]. Populist mayor of Chicago, and a transplanted Yankee. Colvin was born on 18 December 1815 in rural Herkimer County, New York, the son of Presbyterian parents, apparently of British origin. Colvin’s father may have been a farmer, but almost nothing is known of the future mayor’s early life except that he was educated in the local district schools.
Some time before 1854, Colvin married Nancy Churchill of Little Falls, Herkimer County, New York. He operated a boot factory in that town and held a number of local offices, including that of town supervisor. Colvin and his wife had five known children: John [a Chicago alderman, 1879-87]; George P. [an auditor for the American Express Company]; Horatio; Libby; and Helen ]DeLong].
Colvin came to Chicago in 1854 as resident agent of the U. S. Express Company [later known as American Express] – a position which he held, except for the years of his mayoral term, until 1885. A “Douglas” Democrat, Colvin supported the North in the Civil War and became a Republican in 1864; by 1873 he had returned to the Democratic fold.
Chicago in 1873 had a mayor-council form of government and a population of approximately 380,000. The city’s political life was much disturbed during that year, by the attempts of the Joseph E. Medill [q.v.] administration to close saloons on Sundays, and by charges of misuse of the police power and opposition to the introduction of civil service. Unrest, fueled by the national depression, was centered in the city’s immigrant community, especially among German Americans.
The Democratic party seized the opportunity and, in 1873, joined forces with the People’s Party to support Colvin [who had publically opposed Sunday closing]. This alliance included allegedly corrupt politicians and was compared with New York City’s Tweed Ring. Such varied support helped Colvin defeat Republican Lester L. Bond [interim mayor from the time of the resignation of Joseph Medill] by a vote of 28,701 to 18,540 on 4 November 1873.
Colvin’s term was beset by controversy. The mayor ended attempts to enforce Sunday closing but five weeks after his election, the city treasurer – a carryover from the two previous administrations – defaulted and threw Chicago’s finances into chaos. Colvin opposed a new city charter, presented for referendum in 1875, which centralized the police and fire departments and removed them further from public control, but the charter narrowly passed. When the state passed a law altering the terms of local officials, Colvin claimed, on a technicality, that his term should run through April 1877. A public furor followed, and conservative elements called a special election, without council authorization, for 18 April 1876. Thomas Hoyne, a prominent real estate man, ran without organized opposition and received 33,064 of 33,814 votes cast. Colvin denied Hoyne’s right to office and for nearly two months, the city had two mayors and two sets of officials. After the courts declared Hoyne’s election illegal, Colvin resumed the mayoral office on 5 June 1876 and retained it until a legal special election on 7 July 1876, in which he did not run.
Colvin retired from political life after the election of 187, but he did serve as a Democratic elector in 1884. He died on 16 April 1892 in Jacksonville, Florida.

The following was taken from the war of 1812 -History of Steuben County 
 It is popularly told, that on this day Ensign Kennedy was engaged in personal combat with a British officer, and being unacquainted with the polite learning of his newly adopted profession, was speedily disarmed; that he immediately closed with his confounded antagonist, knocked him down with his fist, and made him prisoner. The hero of the story, however, is said to have denied it. He was present at other engagements, and gained the reputation of a cool and resolute officer. At the sortie of Fort Erie he served with distinction. It was here that, under a close and heavy fire, he paced to and fro by the heads of his men, who had been ordered to lie flat on the ground to avoid the balls--not for a vain exposure of his person, but “being an officer,” he thought “it wouldn’t do.” In the second year of the war two companies were drafted from the Steuben County militia, and sent to the Niagara frontier, under the command of Captain James Read, of Urbana, and Jonathan Rowley, of Dansville, faithful and reliable officers. Captain Read refused to go as a drafted officer, but reported himself to General of the division, at the commencement of the war, as ready to march at the head of a company, as a volunteer, whenever he should be called upon. Both the companies were principally levied from the Northern part of the county. Of Capt. Rowley’s company, John Short and John E. Mulholland were lieutenants, and George Knouse and Timothy Goodrich, ensigns. Of Capt. Read’s company, George Teeples and Anthony Swarthout were lieutenants, and Jabez Hopkins and O. Cook, ensigns. From muster to discharge these companies served about four months. All of the officers and most of the men volunteered to cross the boundaries of the republic, and were stationed at Fort George. 

We have not succeeded in learning anything about the draft for the last year of the war, if any was made, not concerning the militia of this county who were engaged at Fort Erie.

Notes for Reuben Short:
     David Short, a preacher, with his father and brothers; Reuben and Abel, came from Rhode Island to Cooperstown, New York,   thence to Wappusening, in Windham, about 1807, and located where the widow Doan now resides.  They did not remain, moving to Tioga County before 1810. From: HISTORY OF BRADFORD COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA. By Bradford Argus, Oct. 12, 1871
     Deerfield township was formed from Delmar, in 1814, with an area originally of about 150 square miles.  It's territory has undergone many changes. Out of it was formed the townships of: Westfield, Brookfield (1821), Chatham (1828), Knoxville borough (1851), Clymer (1851) and part of Osceola (1878).  When Deerfield township was set off from Delmar in 1814, it was reported that there were 63 taxable inhabitants.  The first settlers who came to stay were William Knox sen. and Ebenezer Seelye from Massachusetts and Connecticut respectively.  They had temporarily resided in Painted Post, N.Y. for some years.  By 1799, these families had settled in Deerfield.  The next pioneer families began settling in 1803 (John Howland), and in 1807 it is recorded that John Short, Reuben Short, and David Short acquired land and settled in the Deerfield area- at that time a part of  Delmar.  The first recorded record found listing Reuben is the Tax tables of Delmar dated 1812.  The Tax table shows Reuben as owning 2 horses and 2 cows with a total value of $ 60.00.  There is no record of acres owned.  The Tax table also noted David Short; owning 73 acres, 2 horses and 1 cow for a total of $133.00.  John Short is listed as owning 60 acres, 1 horse and 1 cow for a value of $ 95.00. Benoni Short owned 100 acres and 1 cow valued at 112 dollars. Asa Short owned 100 acres and 2 cows for a value of 122.50 dollars.

WINDHAM TOWNSHIP By H. C. Bradsby [1891]

Windham township was formed in 1813.  It is bounded on the north by Tioga county, New York, on the east by the township of Warren, on the south by Orwell and Rome, and west by Litchfield.  The principal streams in the township are the Wysox creek, which flows in a southwest direction and discharges its waters in the Susquehanna river, at Wysox, in Bradford county, and the Wappasenning, which flows in a northwest direction and discharges its waters in the east branch of the Susquehanna, in Tioga county, New York.  The surface of the township is broken and uneven, but generally well adapted to grazing and the dairy.  Some very fine farms are to be found in the township.  There are four postoffices in the township, and several small villages. 

The early settlers were:  Philo Brainard, Darius Brainard, Jeptha Brainard, Henry Brainard, Jeptha Brainard, Jr., Daniel Doane, Seth Doane, Joseph Doane, Stephen Smith, Joseph Webster, Gerald Smith, Rensselaer Moon, Jonah Fox, Thomas Fox, Russell Fox, Rev. David Short, Reuben Short, Lyman Winchester, Nathan Spalding, Augustus Hughling, Jonathan Pease, Edmund Russell, Parley Johnson, Amos Verbeck, Benjamin Shoemaker, Caleb Wright, James Mapes. 

Daniel Doan moved into Windham in the fall of 1800. He lived in Windham Centre. His son, Seth, narrates that Thomas and John Fox were the only men there when his father came, they having come the preceding spring. The children of Daniel were Seth, Daniel, Jr., Joseph, Nathan, Reuben, Charles, Sally and Phoebe. Daniel Doan, Jr., married Sylvia, daughter of James Bostwick, of New York. Joseph Doan lived about three-fourths of a mile from the Centre, on the place now occupied by his youngest son, Joseph. He lived and died there. 

Among the earliest settlers was Stephen Smith, who came about 1805, and settled where the widow Doan lives; he remained until 1817, when he sold to Joseph Webster. he was an old man, bad been a captain in the Revolutionary War, and was the first settler on the place. 

Gerard Smith, brother of Rensselaer and grandson of Capt. Stephen Smith, came in 1805 and settled on the Webster place, purchasing of Rensselaer Moon. He built two sawmills on the Wappasening, at Madden's, the first in the township. There was also a gristmill at the same location, contemporaneous with the mills above mentioned. Gerard Smith sold to Joseph Webster. Rensselaer Smith, born in 1801, came in 1812. The Foxes, from Connecticut, had preceded him, and were among the first settlers. Jonah Fox lived at the Johnsons' location, and his son, Thomas, Lived where Jacob Reed formerly kept tavern. Russell, another son, lived nearly opposite his father's place. The sons of Thomas Fox were Harry, Silas and George. They lived near the State line. David Short, a preacher, with his father and brothers, Reuben and Abel, came about I807, and located where the widow Doan resided. 

Other early settlers were Lyman Winchester, who lived a little above Brainerd's, and was a great hunter; Nathan Spalding, from Rhode Island, who sold his possession to Daniel Doan, Sr., and moved into Warren ; Augustus Hulon, who lived where the creek crosses the road below Windham Centre. and who was connected with- and always followed Capt. Smith in his migrations; and Jonathan Pease, who took out a patent for a large tract of land, in behalf of the, settlers, and then deeded OLT their respective lots to them. He died August 2, 1836, aged sixty-nine years. His wife died March 16, 1845, in her eightieth year. 

Joseph Webster, in 1813, came from Connecticut and Settled on the place occupied by George Smith, purchasing of Capt. Smith, Gerard Smith and Augustus Hulon. he died in 1830. At the time of his coming Edmund Russell was justice of the peace ; Mr. Webster succeeded him, and continued in office until his death. Edmund Russell and Parley Johnson (brothers-in-law of Mr. Webster), settled in Windham a year or two before him. and gave such a flattering description of the county as to induce Mr. Webster to locate there. "His business was largely lumbering. Nathan Doan married his widow, who still survives.

Notes for Mary Edith Bement:
Mary Edith Bement lived in the Roseville, Pennsylvania area as a child. She went to Mansfield Normal School and then got a job teaching in a one-room schoolhouse on Meads Creek Road. He husband, Frank Short, was in the farming and lumber business on Meads Creek Road as was his father. They met there and were married in 1895. 
They moved to Galeton, Pennsylvania around 1900 to 1905. The house that the Short Family lived in Galeton was large one with a barn in back. An addition was added after it was sold in 1917 for $500. It sold cheaply as the lumber business folded up and there was no demand for housing. The house was viewed in October 1984 and appeared to be in exceptionally good shape and repair. 

Frank worked for a hardwood flooring company in charge of the boiler and machinery. The lumbering business had pretty well stripped the hills of trees in that area and the company made a move to Lake Placid about 1917. He wanted to go with the company, but Edith resisted because of a lack of good schools in the Adirondack area. About that time, Frank came to Coopers Plains, New York to attend his brother's funeral. He heard that Ingersoll-Rand was hiring, so he applied and got a job. The family moved on the Galeton, Knoxville + Addison Railroad. The furniture had to be moved by horse and buggy from Addison, New York to Painted Post, New York, having been transported on the same train on which they traveled. 

Frank started at Ingersoll-Rand and later transferred to Corning Glass in the millwright shop and then transferred to the tin shop. He left the Glass Works in 1926 and did custom tinsmith work, such as eaves, troughs, etc. He had a workshop for a while on the second floor of a building housing Ingalls Hardware in Painted Post. His son, Jim, was particularly fond of a metal airplane that his father made him. Frank then had a workshop in the garage in back of the family home which had originally been a dairy. 

Edith started a Larkin Store about 1925 in the living room of the house in Painted Post. This was later moved into a large two story addition built on the back of the house by Frank. This was constructed about 1925-26. The business was discontinued about 1943. The store was torn down and the house sold in 1946.

Notes for Francis Ira Short:
Francis Ira Short was born in the Burdette area, went to school in Galeton, Pennsylvania, and worked in the railroad machine shop in Galeton. After coming to Painted Post, New York he and his brother, Harold, in about 1925, started a dairy business in a two-car garage type building constructed at the rear of the property at 539 West High Street in Painted Post, New York. 
Francis principally trucked the milk in from farmers in the Meads Creek, Monterey and Coopers Plains area. It was processed, bottled and delivered house to house each morning primarily by Harold. Some hired help was used. The dairy was named "Radio Dairy" after Harold's interest in radios at that time. There was also, at one time, a large ice house on the property, the ice being used to cool the milk. Ice was harvested from various ponds in the area each winter. A tall fence was constructed along the driveway to prevent sawdust from blowing on the neighbor's property. The boys were encouraged to go into the dairy business by their Uncle Harry Bement. The business was later sold to Dann's Dairy, and the building converted to garage. He then went to work for the Steuben County Highway Department and retired from that position. (Source: James Roland Short[Brøderbund WFT Vol. 17, Ed. 1, Tree #1908, Date of Import: 17 Mar 1998])

Notes for Harold Winfred Short:
Harold Winifred Short went to school in Galeton, Pennsylvania and Painted Post, New York. He worked in partnership with his brother, Francis, in the dairy business. Harold was very interested in the radio as a young man, took several correspondence courses, and had one of the very early Atwater-Kent radios hooked to a huge metal speaker, like a megaphone, which was protruding from the front attic window of the house in Painted Post. The neighbors would gather on the front lawn and porch to listen to it. It was from this interest that the name "Radio Dairy" came from. As a note of interest, the dairy was started with a 1923 Chevy truck. Harold then worked for a number of years at Ingersol-Rand in Painted Post. At the same time, and for a number of years he ran a movie theatre in the Masonic Temple building in Painted Post in partnership with Hobart A. Look. The building is no longer there. It was very near the entrance to Painted Post from the traffic circle. In later years Harold worked for Mercury Aircraft in Hammondsport, Pennsylvania.
