| 120 | Born in Prussian region of Germany near Hanover. Married Catharina Margaretha Schulte. Death called one of our aged pioneer citizens on Christmas day, Dec. 25, 1907, at seven o'clock p. m. Diederich Renze, Sr., whose advancing years had brought feebleness, and at last a malignant stomach trouble of three-weeks duration, was called to eternity. He died well prepared with the consolations of his faith, receiving the Holy Viaticum, and was surrounded by his wife and children. Departed was born September 29, 1822 at Ankum Kr. Bersenbrueck, Prov. Hanover, Germany and was therefore 85 years, 2 months and 26 days old at his death. He was reared to sturdy, honest manhood in his native land, inured to hard work and ever an example of industry, frugality and sobriety. In 1850 he was married to Margaretha Schulte, and they made their home in their native village for many years. Mr. Renze was a tireless hard worker, and made yearly trips to the harbors of the North Sea and other localities in eastern Germany and western Russia, where work was more plenty & pay was better. He could talk entertainingly of his experiences among the Slavs, Poles and other people of strange habits, customs and tongues with whom he came in contact. In 1877 with his family he came to America, directly to Carroll county, where his two eldest sons had preceded him, and had made the start for a home in the new land. They acquired the land which remained the family homestead and on which the wife and youngest son remain at this time. There survive the departed besides his aged wife, his sons, Henry, Diederich, Gerhard, Frank and Fred, also a daughter, Mrs. Marianna Rathman, in Germany, and another daughter, Mrs. Peter Rosauer near Danbury, Iowa. One child died in infancy. The funeral occurred Saturday forenoon from the Catholic church at Roeelle. large numbers of friends and neighbors from far and near being in attendance. The departed was a man of simple, plain habits, open and reserved in his ways and speech. He spoke not evil of his neighbor and gave to each man his just dues. He was a type of old fashioned German manhood and may well serve modern generation as a good example of unspoiled upright character. His good deeds perpetuate his memory among a large circle of friends. He had no enemy and offended no one intentionally. He leaves to his family of respected sons and daughter, a good name and a competence acquired by hard work and frugality. We may well entertain the assurance that he has found grace and mercy before the Father above Whom he sought to serve ever devoutly in his humble way. May eternal life be granted him. Roselle, Iowa, Dec. 30, 1907. | RENZE, Johann Theodore (I322356263748)

| 126 | Comment - Considered an Original Progenitor in USA. Source - SFA Card Files References - W001,W002,W003,W004 S0013 John SHELDON of South Kingston, RI is considered to be the progenitor of the Sheldon line called William in the Sheldon Family Association Database. According to the Sheldon Magazine, S0013 John SHELDONs father was William SHELDON (SOOO3), born in 1611, and came to Boston, MA with Gov. Endicott. To date, Williams residence in Boston or his association with Gov. Endicott has not been authenticated and/or documented by the Sheldon Family Association. Anyone finding same is encouraged to file it with us. Therefore S0013 John SHELDON has been used as the progenitor of this line. The use of William (W) to designate the line has been done to differeniate the two John lines tracked by the Sheldon Family Association. These lines are known as the John of Providence (J) and John of South Kingston (W) lines respectively. Taken from: (Rhode Island Court Records, 1647-62, Vol. I, p.37) John Sheldon Beinge by Recognzence bownd to this Court and by the Genrl Aturny indicted for an afray by Disorderly Carridges acted in and at Thomas Goulds howse on the 6th janr 1657.

| 127 | Community Shocked by Tragic Death; Life of Prominent Citizen Taken by Accident Sunday Morning A shocking accident, that caused the death of A. J. Paul, one of the prominent and esteemed residents of this community, happened Sunday morning, June 30. Mr. Paul, who though living In town himself, has been for years one of the large land owners, and stock feeders of this locality. He has had cattle in a pasture lot across the road from his residence which is in the east part of town. He left the house early in the morning, as was his custom, after doing some morning chores, and went to the lot to take care of the cattle. His niece, Betty Paul who lives near, saw him going from the barn to the well about twenty minutes to seven, and it was found that his watch stopped at fifteen to seven, showing at what time the accident happened. Mr. Paul did not return to the house when Mrs. Paul thought he should be coming, and she asked her son Verne to go to the pasture and see of anything had happened. Verne did so, and when he came near the well, saw at once that something was wrong. Calling E. H, Hanson, a neighbor, they investigated and& found that Mr, Paul had fallen into the well. This was about nine o'clock, and although a physician was called at once, and every effort made to resuscitate Mr. Paul, it was Impossible, life had gone. It was a terrible and tragic thing for the family and friends. Just how it happened will never be known. Either he slipped and fell, or he had a stroke or heart attack, and fell against the pump. There were bruises on his head and shoulder, and the supposition is that he was stunned by the fall, and could not protect himself from slipping into the well. The covering was loose on the well, and one of the boards followed him as he fell.The funeral service was held on the lawn at the home at 2:30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, Rev. C. A.

| 138 | Died, at his home in the village of Rewey, Friday evening, April 23, 1897, Matthew Biddick, aged 80 years, 1 month, and three days. He was born at St. Issey Parish, Cornwall, England, March 20, 1817, and was the eldest of nine children born to Matthew and Mary Biddick - five sons and four daughters - all of whom have gone to the land of their fathers except one brother, Richard Biddick, now residing in Livingston, Wis., and three sisters - Mary, widow of the late John Williams, now residing in Nebraska; Kezia, wife of Samuel Rundell, and Hannah, wife of Richard Rundell, both residing in the town of Mifflin. Deceased came to America in 1850, settling first in Platteville and remaining in that neighborhood about five years, when he permanently located in the town of Mifflin, where he continued to reside with the exception of a few years temporary residence in Iowa. He first married to Miss Petra Nellie Hawkins, in England, in 1844. By this union three daughters were born, all of whom are living: Hannah, Mrs. Paul, residing in Iowa, and was present at the funeral; Emma, Mrs. Mitchell, residing in Minnesota, and Mary, Mrs. Giltner, residing in Kansas. Mr. Biddick's first wife died at Mifflin about thirty years ago. In early manhood he developed a strong religious tendency, and finding the forms and iron-clad ceremonies of the mother church distasteful to his liberal ideas, he withdrew from that organization and identified himself with what was known at that time in England as the "Bible Christians", an offshoot of the Wesleyan Methodists, and at once became an active worker in his chosen field. On coming to America, he attached himself to the Primitive Methodists where he ever remained an active and leading member, often filling the position of local preacher, and demonstrated the sincerity of his convictions by giving liberally of his means to the support of his chosen church. It is undoubtedly true that more honor is due Matthew Biddick in the erection and completion of the Primitive Methodist church at Rewey, than any other person, with the possible exception of Fred Dobson, with whom he worked in perfect harmony. He also gave liberally in the erection of the Ebenezer church. He married his present wife, Mrs. Ann Stone, in England, in 1875. Mr. Biddick never forgot that he was an Englishman, always proud of his ancestry, but he was especially proud that he was an American citizen by adoption. When in England on his last visit, in 1875, on his return he gave very interesting accounts of the discussions he had with his English friends relative to the two forms of government, and of questions growing out of the late war, always giving them to understand he preferred the form of government of his adoption. The funeral took place at Rewey, in the P. M. Church, on Monday, and was largely attended, especially by the older citizens, and the interment was at the old Mifflin Cemetery, Rev. Hardcastle officiating, assisted by F. Dobson. Prof. E. C. Davis, assisted by his splendid choir, rendered excellent music. The pall bearers were Thos. H., Joseph, and Geo. F. Biddick, John S., and A. E. Rundell, and John S. Williams, all nephews of the deceased, and each represented a different family. Life's work well done, Life's race well run, Then comes rest.

| 145 | EVAN SHRIVER DEAD I Evan Shriver, who has lived southeast of Allerton for many years, died last Saturday morning at 1:10 after a long and painful illness of nearly eighteen months duration. The burial was Sunday afternoon at the Rankin cemetery in the presence of a large company of sympathizing friends and relatives. The following brief sketch has been prepared for publication: Evan Snriver was born in Ohio March, 22nd., 1854, making him, at the time of his death, almost 57 years old. He moved to this country in 1858 with his father, Benjamin Shriver. At that time he was 4 years old. He was a member of a family which numbered six, 5 boys and 1 girl. One boy died in infancy. Those who are still living are: Harvey, Polly, Ellis and Benjamin, all of whom are present. His father settled in a very short time after his coming to this country, on the very place that is now occupied by Harvey. Here his family was raised, but the father died while his family were yet incapable of self-support. Through dint of consistent diligence and intelligent economy, supplemented by the loyal aid of sympathetic relatives and friends, the widowed mother raised the young family. And I might say in passing that this was no small accomplishment at that time, for the country was new, everybody was poor, and conveniences, such as we have today, were entirely lacking, But she raised a family who today stand as a daily tribute to her constancy and devotion to them, and I am proud to say now that her family is accounted among the most splendid citizenship of our county. At his majority our deceased friend, husband and father, Evan, settled on the place he has ever since occupied. He married a splendid young lady whose name was Richardson), daughter of Mr Jas Richardson of this county but who is long since deceased. Here Evan has raised his family and raised them well, they are all industrious, respectable and self-supporting citizens, who like their father, have the absolute un-alloyed respect of every adult or child who has had the pleasure of knowing them. Now as to the personality of our dead brother and friend whose speechless form now lies before us. I realize that no words of mine are adequate to the task of picturing him to this sympathetic assembly, which has gathered to offer him the last sad tribute of our mingled respect. He is dead and has paid a debt that we all owe for ourselves and must pay sooner or later. But I am glad to feel the privilege, like everyone present, of declaring my pleasure of having enjoyed his acquaintance and friendship, for he was a pleasant acquaintance and a very true friend. And while he was indeed a true friend, a splendid neighbor and fellow citizen, he has gone and we must all bow our leads to solemn sorrow at this an irresistible decree of fate. | SHRIVER, Evan (I322356264095)

| 150 | Federal census takers were asked to record information about every person who was in each household on the census day. A census taker might have visited a house on a later date, but the information he collected was supposed to be about the people who were in the house on the census day. The basic census enumeration unit was the county. Each county was divided into enumeration districts, one for each enumerator. The completed forms were sent to the Commerce Department's Census Office in Washington, D.C.Federal censuses are usually reliable, depending on the knowledge of the informant and the care of the census enumerator. Information may have been given to a census taker by any member of the family or by a neighbor. Some information may have been incorrect or deliberately falsified. | Source (S1171896474)
