Attached are 5 photos taken by Photographer Geo. H. Tucker in Mauston. It's possible that they could be from the same family. Jackie Hufschmid 11/05/04

This photo was found in my grandparents things. Newman Everette GRANT [1910-1978] and Mattie Elizabeth DAVIS [1914-1966]. [West Virginia Logan/Mingo Area] But it could be from my father's side. James Alson ROWE [1917-1981]. Any help in identifying this family would be very appreciated. Thank you, I. M. Wingler 07/28/04

Williams, Jim worked for the police dept in Necedah around 1900 to 1905/6. I believe this photo to be from that
time. If anyone reconizes anything in the photo that would help date and place it please drop me a note.

My great, great grandfather Andrew M. TINKER was last found living with his family in the 1900 US Census in Wonewoc, WI. He died the next year in Union Center. The attached picture was loosely stuck in a recently discoverd album belonging to my grandmother (Mary Foster Tinker, married to Clinton TINKER, grandson of A. M. TINKER). The inscription on the back of the photo is "Tinkers - July 23, 1911." This may be a photo of some of the members of this family, but I have not been able to identify them. Perhaps someone can help. Thanks, Chris Brinkley, Vallejo, CA. 05/04/01

Here are some unknown family photos - they could either be SEEBAKER or relatives of theirs. [email protected] Photo #1 - Photo #2 - Photo #3 04/11/01

I have a civil war reunion picture that I am trying to identify the people in it. The picture has been in my husband's family for years and according to family legend one of the men in the picture is William Visgar, my husband's great grandfather and one of William's brothers who also served in the Civil War, but we don't know which of the brothers -- supposedly there were six brothers who served in the Civil War. We have checked the GAR museum in Madison, but didn't get anywhere. Since William lived in Wonewoc, we thought maybe someone else there had a copy of this picture and a list of names to go with it. The inscription in the lower right corner reads Geo. W. Bell Post No. 53 G.A.R. Cindy 1/17/00

Known and Unknown pictures related to these surnames: ST. CLAIR, JUDD, NILES, MARTIN, LEWIS, GREEN, FULLER, FESSY, CHADWICK, BARNETT, WOODWORTH, ST. CLAIR, WATTS, SHANKS, MCCLELLAN/MCCLELLAND, MOREY/MORRY, ANDREWS, PARKER, JOHNSON, TAYLOR, GREEN, VANWELL, KLETT, ELSTON, GRANGER, LEASE
From album owned by JOHN WESLEY ST. CLAIR b. 1837 PA d. 1882 Seven Mile Creek, Juneau co.,and MARY ANN JUDD b. 1847 Canada d. 1932 Narrow Prairie, Sauk Co.
(1) the pictures of his Capt. and wife. Co. K, 6th WI- Who are they?
(2) Mary Niles -taken in 1860’s I would guess--Who is she?
(3) John with 6 of his army companions, possibly taken after the war-Who are they?
(4) pictures of MR. MARTIN’S AUNT AND MR. MARTIN’S UNCLE--who are they exactly. When John Wesley died Oct. 1882, Mary Ann, left with 5 children, married Dec. 1882 to THADDEUS MARTIN, widower of ELIZABETH LEWIS of Shelburne, VT who had at least 6 kids, HERBERT in MT, Miss EMMA of Chicago; Mrs. (HATTIE) F.S. BARNETT of LaValle; LILLIAN, EDWIN of Reedsburg; and BYRON/WALTER of Reedsburg. So this aunt and uncle are THADDEUS’.
(5) Pictures of HATTIE MARTIN and I believe her husband, FRANK BARNETT. Hattie d/o Thaddeus
(6) EMMA MARTIN who moved to Chicago and was unmarried 1875
(8) HERB MARTIN s/o of Thaddeus and Elizabeth Lewis Martin went to MT
(9) Mary Ann and Thaddeus had a daughter JENNIE MARTIN b. 1886 m. ROGER WOODWORTH and moved to Chicago. Have a family picture with her in it. What happened to her?
(10) Pictures of WILLIE FULLER and of NELLIE FULLER 39 IL and DORA FULLER 57 France. Dora (husband) and Nellie lived next door to John W. St. Clair’s sister, OLIVIA CORDELIA ST. CLAIR COLEMAN at Seven Mile Creek in 1880. Nellie assisted in the delivery of Mary Ann’s grandsons. It appears that Dora died and Nellie remarried to WILLIAM H. WATTS by 1884 and is now a widow 62 living in Reedsburg next door to MARY ANN JUDD ST. CLAIR MARTIN. WM. WATTS and OLIVER GRANGER of Summit signed Mary’s pension application in 1884. Oliver is the father of MYRTLE BELLE GRANGER, the future wife of Mary’s son LESLIE ST. CLAIR. Oliver and wife also in Barney Cemetery.
(11) ELIZABETH FULLER d/o Dora and Nellie with probably a picture of husband MR. CHADWICK
(12) Picture of MARY ANN JUDD ST. CLAIR, NELLIE FULLER and ANNA B. GREEN --Who was Anna Green b. about 1828? I don’t pick her up on any census but she did sign a statement in 1884 that she was at the birth of 3 of Mary Ann’s children.
(13) 2 pictures of JOE FESSY b. 1846 VTand one of wife, PHILENIA/PAULINA b. 1846 OH and living next to WILLIAM JUDD s/o brother of Mary Ann and wife MARGARET SHANKS in 1870. In 1905 Joe and Paulina are now living in Reedsburg. Who are they. Were they just neighbors or were they related somehow?
(14) Family picture of JOEL MCCLELLAN b. 1821 s/o CHARLES MCCLELLAND and RHODA MOREY and wife ANNA MCCLELLAN, children AMORETTA b. 1845 PA and CHARLES b. 1847 PA.
Joel on the 1850 Medina, Dane Co. census living next to his uncle, STEPHEN MOREY JR. b. 1794-9 RI.
(15) Picture of DAN MILLER’S aunt POLLY. John Wesley St. Clair’s sister Melinda m. second Daniel/David Miller. They are buried in the Barney cemetery. Dan was also in Co. K, 6th WI with John. Who were his parents?
(16) tin type of DELLA ANDREWS the d/o RUSSELL ANDREWS and CAROLINE NOBLE. I believe that Caroline was the d/o MARY JUDD NOBLE s/o SETH NOBLE thus a niece of Arza’s. In 1860 the Andrews lived 2 houses from Joshua St. Clair and wife RHODA MOREY. The andrews are buried in Big Creek cemetery, Sauk co. I think that Caroline was the sister of ALEXANDER JUDD NOBLE ,who m. MARTHA LEASE, who also served in Co. K. 6th WI and is buried a few feet from his uncle Arza Judd in Barney Cemetery.
(17) DICK KLETT perhaps two pictures of him. He is on the 1860 Mauston/LaValle census--father JOHN KLETT 30 or 50 years old b. Germany and son RICHARD KLETT 16 Germany. Is he or his wife somehow related to the St. Clairs??? Or when his only relative died, he went to work or live with or near the St. Clairs and a bond was built up between them? Several of the letters between John Wesley and his father mention their concern and search for Dick during the war. He did survive and married MARY ELSTON b. 1845 IN/OH and had IDA, MINNIE, AMANDA, ELLA, ANNIE, ERNEST and FRED A. KLETT b. 1887 WI. In 1905 all of these Kletts were living in LaValle and Baraboo. I really would like to find out more about this family.
(18) BILL VANWEL/VANWELL have never found a clue to him
(19) FAY PARKER -no idea who he is was he related to I. G. PARKER of Mauston along with JAMES TAYLOR who witnessed John’s signature on his pension application?
(20)DR. JOHNSON--was he related to the HIRIAM JOHNSON of Summit who witnessed the signing of the widows application?
(21) HARVEY MOREY/MORRY/MORY. Is he RHODA MOREY’s grand nephew through brother, STEPHEN MOREY? Stephen had these sons: SILAS b. 1820 PA, and WILLIAM b. 1825 PA. William had sons all born in Dane Co. WI. CHESTER b. 1847 WI, NEWELL b. 1851, ALFRED b. 1853, HARVEY b. 1857, and ORLANDO b. 1859. Really would like to get this Morey family figured out.

Notes:
(1) (See FULLER information with child #6 above) One of the very closest friends of Mary Ann St. Clair was Nellie Fuller w/o Dora Fuller. I have many pictures of them and notations in letters about Nellie visiting Mary Ann. Were they just neighbors and friends or was there a family connection?
I have pictures of WILLIE FULLER and of NELLIE FULLER 39 IL and DORA FULLER 57 France. Dora (husband) and Nellie lived next door to John W. St. Clair’s sister, OLIVIA CORDELIA ST. CLAIR COLEMAN at Seven Mile Creek in 1880. Nellie assisted in the delivery of Mary Ann’s grandsons. It appears that Dora died and Nellie remarried to WILLIAM H. WATTS by 1884 and is now a widow 62 living in Reedsburg next door to MARY ANN JUDD ST. CLAIR MARTIN. WM. WATTS and OLIVER GRANGER of Summit signed Mary’s pension application in 1884. Oliver is the father of MYRTLE BELLE GRANGER, the future wife of Mary’s son LESLIE ST. CLAIR. Oliver and wife also in the Barney Cemetery.
Also a picture of ELIZABETH FULLER d/o Dora and Nellie with probably a picture of husband MR. CHADWICK and of MARY ANN JUDD ST. CLAIR, NELLIE FULLER and ANNA B. GREEN --Who was Anna Green b. about 1828? I don’t pick her up on any census but she did sign a statement in 1884 that she was at the birth of 3 of Mary Ann’s children.
(2) St. Clair/Sinkler/Sinclair line researched back to 600 AD. Everyone on this St. Clair line has an ancestor named Prince Henry St. Clair who arrived on 2 June 1398 in Nova Scotia to set up a new colony of Knights Templars. His story was recorded in the letters of his Venitian navigator, Nicolo Zeno, and in the legends of the Mi’Kmaq Indians plus many other proofs. Children in NS, VT, and MA are now studying about this event as a fact of history. And there are already 3 monuments to Prince Henry in NS. Anyone with a drop of Scottish blood must after 600 years, have an ancestor among the 200-300 men that went on this voyage. Laurel-Portland, OR Jan 3, 1999
