| 7058 | HERMAN MELVIN, one of the farmers who have assisted in the material development of that goodly portion of Mercer county known as West Salem township, was born there, on his father's old homestead. May 30, 1857, the son of Squire Lester Melvin, who was born September 15, 1831. Squire Melvin attended school until seventeen years of age, after which he was engaged in farming at home. May 31, 1855, he was united in marriage to Mary Miller, born June i, 1834, a daughter of Henry Miller and wife, of West Salem township. The name of the mother of Mrs. Melvin was Bortz. Henry Miller died at the age of eighty-five years, and his wife when seventy-four years. His father, John R. Melvin, was born on the old Melvin homestead in 1802, and married to 1829 to Elizabeth Woods, who was born March 16, 1806, and died June 2, 1846. The great-grandfather of Herman Melvin. Richard Melvin, died in 1824, and the great-grandmother in 1816. This venerable couple located and cleared up the old homestead where so many of the family have been born and reared. It contained three hundred acres and was all finely improved by the various generations of Melvins. It has been in the possession of the family for over two hundred years. Herman Melvin attended the common schools of his native district until about twenty-one years of age, and continued working at home until twenty-eight, when he took possession of part of the old place, so sacred to the memory of the Melvin family. He is making the place better each year and keeps up the good reputation of the Melvins as agriculturists. Politically Mr. Melvin is a Democrat and at present is holding the office of tax collector of his township ; also is constable and has served as an assessor one term. He was married January 27, 1887, to Delia Woods, born March 18, 1869, a daughter of J. W. Woods, a farmer at Maysville, Pennsylvania, whose wife's name before marriage was Clarinda Brown. The children born to Mr. and Mrs. Melvin are Glenn Ord, aged twelve years, and Harry Lester, aged five years. Mr. Melvin 's brothers and sisters were: John H., a farmer in West Salem township; Allen E., George B. (both deceased); Ida, at home; Susan, wife of G. F. Reimold, a farmer of Otter Creek township; and Solome, at home with her sister Ida, and these sisters are keeping house for the father.

| 7063 | HORACE DICKINSON TAYLOR (1821 - 1890) At the age of 17 Horace Dickinson Taylor left his native Massachusetts with his brother, Edward, after the sudden death of their parents. They settled in Independence, Texas, in 1838, and in 1848 the Taylor brothers moved to Houston where they established a cotton business. Horace became sole owner of the business in 1850 and soon thereafter bought a warehouse near a steamboat landing on Buffalo Bayou. From this strategic location he could roll cotton down to boats waiting below and within a short time developed a thriving cotton brokerage enterprise. Horace married Emily Baker in 1852. They reared three sons and two daughters here on their 3.5 acre wooded homesite. Taylor became one of the city's influential citizens, serving as Alderman in 1861-1862, Mayor in 1866, and as an elder of the First Presbyterian Church. Buffalo Bayou, neglected during the Civil War, was dredged during Taylor's term as Mayor, effectively re-establishing commerce to the Gulf. The bayou soon became the lifeline of Houston businesses, allowing the city to successfully compete with Galveston for trade. Taylor, who was one of the founders of the Board of Trade and Cotton Exchange in 1874, continued in the cotton business until his death. | Taylor, Horace Dickinson (I1685)

| 7069 | Illinois, Deaths and Stillbirths, 1916-1947 (familysearch.org) Charles Albert Day, Pres. D.A. Stuart Oil Co., born 12 Jan 1865 in Peoria, IL to Charles B Day of Binghamton, NY and his mother of Bennington, VT, married Harriot, died 12 Nov 1942 in Chicago, Cook, IL. Buried 13 Nov 1942 in Graceland cemetery, Chicago, IL. from Peoria Journal Star, 15 Nov 2008 by Terry Bibo (pjstar.com) It took 66 years, two days and 20 minutes to bury Charles Albert Day. Once the Chicago-based CEO of an oil company and the scion of a well-known Peoria family, Mr. Day's remains have been sitting on a shelf at Springdale Cemetery since World War II. At 91, Peoria's Charles Kellogg is Day's great-nephew and appears to be the closest surviving relative. He didn't know until three weeks ago. "It's a complete surprise to us," says Jackie Kellogg, as Springdale general manager Pat Lewis helps her husband of 62 years over the soft and uneven ground to Day's graveside on a misty Friday morning. "You never know what's going to happen when the phone rings." Chuck Kellogg is a trifle unsteady, but sporting, as he takes his place for a ceremony to bridge the gap between long-overdue and totally unexpected. "People will think this is for me," he says, pointing his cane at the square hole where the small ceramic jar containing Day's cremains will be placed. A handful of Springdale employees laugh. Along with the Kelloggs, two journalists and a local historian, they are the only people here. Special instructions on the Day family plot prevented this funeral for decades. Close friends and family are understandably scarce. But finding a way to inter these cremains had become a mission for Lewis over the last three years. When he discovered the faint connection to the Kelloggs in October, they made brief yet respectful arrangements. "This is something that is 66 years late," Lewis says as he begins to read prepared remarks. His research shows some odd coincidences. Charles Albert Day was born in Peoria on Jan. 12, 1865. He married Harriot Wheeler Langdon on Nov. 14, 1911 - so he was buried on what would have been their 97th anniversary, if there had been such a thing. (No record of children was found.) His relatives ran what was known as Day Brothers & Co. Dry Goods, but this Day left and became president of D.A. Stuart Oil Co. from 1917 until he retired at 65 in 1929 - neatly spanning from World War I until the Depression. He was living in Chicago when he died on Nov. 12, 1942 - which is 47 years to the day when his father died. Day's death certificate says he was cremated and buried there. But Springdale records show his ashes were shipped to his wife in San Diego, and she sent them back to Peoria. Knowingly or not, this created a problem. There was a handwritten note in the file dated Sept. 19, 1921, that no one could be buried on the Day Brothers lot without permission. If there is a reason why this never happened, no one here knows what it is. Lewis considered going ahead with his own ceremony, and then he found the Kelloggs, who agreed to attend. "I have come to affectionately refer to Charles as 'Chucky,'" Lewis says. While Springdale has been Day's guardian, perhaps he has been an angel for the cemetery, as well. "I feel Chucky has been in a better place for those 66 years, and now his earthly remains can be placed with his mother in what is a very special place." A wan ray of sunlight warms the hillside the Day family chose in 1874. It embraces the same vista Lewis uses to demonstrate Springdale's rejuvenation when he talks to community groups. A small pile of earth is trundled over to the grave and tamped down. The whole thing takes a bit more than a quarter of an hour. "He deserves to be put to rest finally," says Jackie Kellogg as the small group trudges back to their waiting cars. "Poor soul." | Day, Charles Albert (I2062)

| 7100 | Jeffery Champlin, the immigrant and progenitor of the Champlin name in America, was born at Bideford (Devonshire) England circa 1621. He emigrated between 1627 and 1638 from Portsmouth, Rhode Island. (1) It is not known how Jeffrey came to the New World (or when), although there are reports that he was in Boston as early as 1627. The first white settlement on Aquidneck took place in March 1638 on the north end of the island at Pocasset (renamed Portsmouth in 1640). This colony was founded by Anne Hutchinson and her small group of religious libertarians. They had met in the Boston home of prominent merchant William Coddington on March 7, 1638. This small group were greatly at odds with and frequently harassed by Massachusetts' ruling Puritans. Huthinson's group calling themselves the "Bodie Politick", drew up a compact in much the same way as did the Mayflower passengers. He was a Cordwainer/Property/Public Official from 1638 to 1685 in Rhode Island. At Newport, Jeffrey engaged in the buying and selling of property and was thought to have become a cordwainer. Cordwainers were leather workers who made use of cordovan (a soft, colored leather usually made of sheep, goat, or dog skin, or split horse hide) to design and make custom made shoes. This was considered to be a pre-eminent profession in those days. | Champlin, Jeffrey (I3284)
