9402	The First Regiment, Arkansas Volunteers, was established at Little Rock on May 6, 1861, but was actually organized at Lynchburg, Virginia, on May 19, 1861, where the ten component companies enlisted for twelve months. The first field officers were Colonel James Fleming Fagan, Lieutenant-Colonel James Cade Monroe, and Major John Baker Thompson. Although present at the Battle of Manassas (Bull Run) in July 1861, the First Arkansas led a fairly peaceful life during its first year of service, assigned to stationary guard duty and picket posts in the Department of Fredericksburg. Their tour of duty as garrison soldiers came to an end, however, when the regiment was transferred to the Army of Mississippi in February 1862. Assigned to the First (Gibson's) Brigade, First (Ruggles') Division, in Bragg's Second Corps, the regiment fought in the Battle of Shiloh, April 6-7, 1862. The First Arkansas went into the fight with about 800 men, and sustained a loss 364 killed, wounded and missing in actionan astounding 45 percent casualty rate. After reorganizing, the First Arkansas was assigned to Pat Cleburne's division, and spent the remainder of the war in the Army of Tennessee, fighting in all the major battles of that army, including Murfreesboro, Tullahoma, Chickamauga, Chattanooga, New Hope Church, Kennesaw Mountain, Atlanta, Jonesboro, Franklin, Nashville, and Bentonville. On April 9, 1865, the remnants of the First Arkansas were consolidated with the remnants of nine other depleted Arkansas regiments to form the First Arkansas Consolidated Infantry. This consolidated regiment was included in the surrender of the Army of Tennessee later than month, April 26, 1865, at Greensboro, North Carolina.	Melton, Christopher Columbus 'Chris' (I55670)
9403	The following (quoted verbatim) was provided by Karl LuDell Weiler to Carl Wayne Gray on July 18, 2003: "AGED VETERAN IS CALLED HOME The Weiler home on Lima Street was saddened Monday evening, January 12, 1914, in the death of their father, Jacob Weiler, who passed away shortly before 8 o'clock, following an illness which has extended over a brief space of time. The aent of the death was received by the friends and old associates of Mr. Weiler with much surprise and grief, as some of them wre not aware of his illness. He slipped and fell on the ice hardly a week ago and the injuries received then, aggravated by complications from his already failing health caused his death. The deceased was born in Schwenigen, Germany, August 24th, 1836, and at the time of his death had reached the age of 77 years, four months, and eighteen days. When quite young about nine years of age, he came to America with his parents, but his father survived only a short while after their arrival in this country. (His father died 1859). The family located almost immediately in Auglaize county and Mr Weiler resided east of this city for a number of years. His entire lifetime since the time he arrived in America, had been spent in Auglaize county. He was unite in marriage with margaret Barbara Beaumel, April 28th, 1866. She preceded him in death thirrteen years ago. Mr Weiler was for 17 years watchman at the Wapakonita Wheel Co., but some years ago he retired from active work on account of his failing health. He is survived by the following children: Mis Sophia Weiler, residing at the hom in this city, Fred Weiler, residing West of Wapakonita and Jacob Weiler of Columbus. Two children John and Louis Weiler preceded the father in death. One brother Mike Weiler of Wood Streeet, also survives with five grandchildren and a host of other relatives. Mr Weiler was a soldier as a member of Co. C 37th Regt. And was likewise a member of the Kyle Post G.A.R. The funeral service will occur Thursday, January 15th, 1814 from St Paul's Evangelical Church at 2 o'clock. The member of Kyle Post will be in charge of the services, with internment at the Greenlawn Cemetery.

9404	The following (quoted verbatim) was provided by Karl LuDell Weiler to Carl Wayne Gray on July 18, 2003: "IMMIGRATION LETTER BY JACOBS HAND SENT FROM OHIO TO GERMANY DATED 9 SEP 1847, THANKING TOWNSPEOPLE IN GERMAY FOR SEND THEM AND LETTING THEM KNOW THE GOT TO OHIO SAFELY. OTTO BENZING STORIES FROM THOSE WHO CAME FROM AROUND THE NECKAR AREA Second Volume 36 miniatures starting from the 17th century until establishment of the city in 1907 First edition Translated by Jan A. Krancher Chapter 31 1847 page 1 The Emigrants The community sends the hungry ones to America The first rays of the April sun greeted those who departed. 200 men, women and children stood around the four horse drawn coverd wagons. Between the beds and the household belongings, they packed grandmothers and infants. Before the maithe column stopped and the people of Villingen witnessed a heart-rending scene. A throng of family and friends accompanied the eight wagons thus far. Now there were last embraces, a final handshake, a tearful "God be with you" and "Don't forget to write us!". The the conductor from Reutling, who was to take the emigrants to Mainz, reminded them "Forward people, in the name of God!" and the long train was set into motion. Up the Brigachtal, over the Sommerau the planned to descent the Kinzigtal to Offenburg. The Conductor had, as far as possible, assigned each wagon two dozen people in such a way as to make sure that each family stayed together. Asasigned to the first coachman, Johannes Benzing, were the "Andreslis" brother Jakob and Mathias Lheir wives and five children, in addition to both "Christiaans" families with 12 children. While the women were still crying quietly, the men were soom occupied, because the higher they climbed up the Black Forest, the more frequent one could ffind remnants of snow and ice in the streets. They had stopped cursing the long winter some time ago. Only one urge remained - to get away from hunger and sorrow as if their lives depended on it. In Gutachtal where normally at this time of the year the first patato sprouts would appear, the land was still barren and small ponds had formed in the meadows. The in keeper's wife, in whose barn they could stay overnight, complained that food already had run out before Easter. However when she met "caravan girl Christine, would whould take care of her brother christiaan in the new world, she hn her. Despiter the fact that she did not even harvest a Page 2 crateful of potatoes in the fall, and they were half rotten, she nevertheless brought out a big loaf of bread with a box full of apples for the kids. For a whole week, the people from Schwenningen had time to discuss their wagon journey and wither they did the right thing to leave their homeland. Several families withdrew at the last moment. At that time in October when the famine struhan 250 people were ready to come along. But the closer the day of departure got, the greater became the fear for the unknown. Oh, how difficult were the negotiations with several agents. The notary public, Mr Stahlen from Heilbronn was first to declare that he was ready to undertake the drive. The trans oceanic journey and the care of the adults would cost 84 guut he also had advised at the time to travel to New York in the spring. It would be crowded there otherwise and it would be impossible to obtain room or transportation into the interior. Elias Held from Rottwell, on the other hand, wanted to leave in March, but the 90 guilders which he asked, were too much for the town council. Alderwirt Rufli from Sissin in Aargau did his upmost to get the order, but his travel route le through Le Havre and the French officials would not allow emigrants throught who could not prove their net worth. A commission of the town council went the extra mile and went to Mannheim and Stressburg to obtain fake association documents as protection for the emigrants to Texas. But finally they came to terms with the agency of Jacob Beck in Reutlingen. He would take 97 adults, 83 children 12 and ten infants to Mainz. From there he would take them with a steam ship to London and then below deck a mail carryingNew York. The community paid him 91 guilders for each person over 12 years, 55 guilders for each child and the infants went free. On board of ship there awaited each a place to sleep and cook in addition to sufficient drinking water, wood, coaal and light. For provision each adult received 40 pounds of biscuit, 14 pounds of beef jerkey, 55 pounds rice, 2 pounds salt, 2 liter vingar and a quantity of potatoes. The children proportionally received less. the provisions had to last six to eight weeks because that was how long the journey would take. Page 3 The women could hardly believe that so much supply had to be stored for their family. The Painter Jakob Jauch calculated for his wife that she, together with their seven children, need to acquire a whole bushel of potatoes, 150 kilogram of biscscuits and so much meat, which they normally would not have eaten in an entire year. They all looked forward to the stam boat journey, because starting from Mainz they would get coffee and bread for breakfast, soup, meat and vegetables for lunch and in the evening they had sandwiches and tea. In comparison with the soup for the poor, the carrots and ddried mushroom on which they lived the past few months, a plush life was awaiting them on this journey. The community's accountant calculated that it would still be cheaper for the community to pay the trip for the poor than it would be to feed them until the end of the famine. The soup for the 200 poor alone would cost more than 1000 guilders per year. To pay for this, the community had confiscated all inheritances, which would normally accrue to the emigrants at time of death of one of their relatives. Another saving was assured by collecting the wood and peat supply of these emigrating citizens and these could then be sold. In one year alone, the sum of 15,000 guilders which the town had to rais, was amortized this way,. Johannes Burk, the young industrialist, even had written six weeks earlier in the Stuttgart Observer, that the almighty would guard each community to be protected from the temporary assistance of these needy people, to be the mediator, yese even be the author of the destruction and sorrow of these citizens who were sent abroad. But Johannes could easily say this - he did not have to beg for soup abroad. they all hoped to find compatriots abroad, whou would help them on their way. Since the last famine of 1817, hundreds of people from Schwenningen emigrated to America. In Mainz, Mr. Beck was already awaiting them. He told them that it was necessary to separate the party in two groups. With 65 people he immediately left for London. The others he left behind under the stewardship of his conductors. Afte, Bech returned and announced that the first group was already underway to New York on the mail carrying ship "Hendrik Hudson". Unfortunately there was not enought room for all. With the rest he reached Rotterdam in three days and in another day Page 4 he arrived in London. There he was told that the ship still had to be equipped for passengers. By coincidence they found out that its destination was not New York, but Quebec. The adults were gripped by unspeakable fear. they would likely not see their compatricts again, those who sailed of earlier. They would arrive in an unknown area where there would probley be no Germans at all/ How could they get from te interior of the United States? They threatened Beck with serious consequences. He acknowledged that there would not be a ship going to New York in the foreseeable future. They advised them to sue Beck so that the community could lay claim on his colleteral. But they were far from home and had already used up their cash. Without Beck's assistance they neither would have board nor room. It would be better to come to an agreement with him than to wait for news from home. At last they believed Beck's assurance that the journey from Quebec to the interior was not much farther than from New York. They also saw that he was in trouble himself because he used a lof of money while they were waiting in Mainz and ior more than two weeks. But by taking the short route to Quebec, he would save so much that he would recuperate from his losses. So on May 26, exactly one month after thier departure from home, they set sail from London. The journey by sea progressed well, without appreciable storms and without serious illnesses. Beck showed himself to be bery concerned about the well being of his people. He financially assisted those who did not get much support from the. he mad sure that there was sufficient vegetable, dried fruit, biscuits and medication. He assisted them in Quebec with transportation to the United States. Subsequently, upon arrival in Wapakoneta, Ohio, the weaver johannes Rapp and the laborer Jakob Weiler, could write to the town council in Schwenningen, that they arrived safely and that they could recommend agent Beck to every emigrant. M,ver, they wanted to thabnk the community for providing them the opportunity to start anew in the new world. Page 5 Note: The documents of this enterprise and a copy of the cited letters are being kept in the Schwenningen archives. The farewell scene was painted in the citizens newspaer in Villingen. Johannes Burk's comments in the paper is printed in the book belonging to F.L. Neher, entitled "Johannes Burk." 141. COPY WAPAKONETA, OHIO, THE 9TH OF SEPTEMBER 1847 Whol. (?) Mayor's Office and District Council And Citizens Committee Filled with gratitude, love, and faithfulness we, the undersigned feel obligated to let you, dear superiors, know about our situation and fate up to now, and to inform you about the dispute with the agent Mr. Beck. A concise description of the journey can be found in a letter I have sent to Christine Schlanker earlier. I am sure it is open for reading to whoever is interested in it. I find it appropriate to start immediately with the matter of Mr. Beck. in Mainz he could the 180 people.....(sentence not finished) rush with 63 to London, shipped them to New York, came back and fetched the 117 of us also. In two andf dhe drove with us to Rotterdam, from there in 25 hours to London. Here there was a halt. Mr Beck had to work very fast already at the journey. With time consuming difficulty the ship was being furnished for passengers since it normally was only a regular merchant ship with three masts, carrying 550 tons. On the ship wer were not allowed to say anything. It was built well and had a good crew. How startled we were, however, when we found out by accident that the shiip was heading for Quebec and not for New York! We confronted Mr Beck (with this). Of course, he did not deny it and tried to tell us it would be to our advantage. However, we did not agree with him at all. We believed we were still too far away from the Uniited States and felt abandoned by everyone. Mr Beck always countered with plausible reasons like it would not cost more to go inland from there than from New York. He also kept insisting there was no ship for us available to go to New York. We called upon the contract you wrote for us and even went to the Prussian Wurttemberg consul. He inquired at the main agency and he was told Mr Beck was quite unknown to them here. Thereupon he gave us the advice that we should have him arrested and that we should immediately let our city council know, so that he will not be able to claim rectification. However this seemed too troublesome to us and too expensive. And now pitty entered the scene. He also paid about 150 to 160 gulden to those people who did not receive a capitation fee from you. The ship and we were his responsibility. Page 2 After a delay of 4 to 5 days we went to sea on the 26th of may. Mr. Beck treated us very well during the whole journey; we did not lack anything. He could have saved another 100 on us, but he did not do it. The food on the ship was also of excellent quality as well as enough in quantity. I wold advise every emigrant to entrust himself to him. The reason he took us to Quebec was that he had to pay only 64 gulden per person while it was 72 gulden to New York. And this saving he needed even more because he has lost much money in a hurry since we left home on the 26th of April and went to sea only on the 26th of May. Also one may count 48 gulden per day for board-wages for little and big people etc. Signed Jacob Weiler Johannes Rapp The correctness of this copy is certified.

9406	The following is what I have on R. Baker Warren. The last paragraph I found today. Notes for Robert Baker Warren by Robert M. Decker: Robert Baker Warren, who was always referred to as Baker, was a messenger in an Infantry Division of the U.S. Army during WWI. He was killed in the line of duty in Argonne, France 11 Nov 1918, the very day the Armistice was signed. He dove into a shell hole to excape a bombardment, but was hit by an incoming shell. Ironically, Robert was hospitalized earlier in 1918 for exposure to mustard gas and was offered the opportunity to go home, but he refused. This information was passed to Robert's sister, Lucy Beatrice Warren, in a letter from a young man who served with Baker. Robert M. Decker wrote (20 Aug 1999) that he believed Baker Warren was in Company F., but wasn't sure of the Regiment. The government paid a monthly pension to Baker's mother, Lucy McConnell Warren, until her death May 31, 1936. Subsequent to her death, a final payment of $1,602 was made to be divided among all living heirs of Baker Warren.

9407	The following was posted by her grand daughter Kim Workman to Facebook on June 3, 2023:: "40 years ago today my Grandma Workman passed away. Isola Gertrude Kepley Workman was 95. I was nearly 23 when she died. My dad was the youngest of 8 children and she was almost 44 when she had him. I am the youngest granddaughter. Grandma was always old to me, an old fashion grandma with her hair in a bun, always wore dresses with a full apron, bonnet and had her stockings knotted @ the knee. She had old fashion shoes- one pair for work and one pair for church. She slept on a feather bed and it took a lot of strength to fluff it everyday and you did NOT sit on her bed. The only time it was sat on was family reunions when the house was so full that the bed was a gathering place for the woman to visit. Grandma survived the death of one of her children. Zelma was 5 when she died. Grandma was devastated and couldn't get over it. Grandpa told her to pull herself together because there were other kids to raise. I can't imagine how sad she was. She also lived in pain for years with gallbladder disease. When my mom and dad were married, dad was shipped to Germany (Korean War) for 18 months. Mom stayed with grandma and developed a tremendous love for her mother-in-law. We lived across 3 or 4 20 acre fields and I would take the lease road (always bare foot) and cut across the field to her house. I spent lots of time at grandmas. She had ice cream...and I liked ice cream. Her grandson (still alive at 93) was a candy man and he always kept her in a box of Milky Ways. (once in a while I would sneak a candy bar and eat it in the bathroom)...she always had peppermints in her clothes drawer and golden delicious apples in a basket… she could peel an apple, and never break the peal ring (that always amazed me). She made bread and butter pickles (yum), squash pies and homemade jelly. She always had sugar cookies (more like hunks of flour) in a pink Depression Glass cookie jar on her table. My long time friend, Rhonda Hoke, loved those cookies. Grandma had a water jug in her fridge, probably an old Karo Syrup bottle. Everyone drank out of that bottle, we didn't worry about germs back then. She was a hard worker. Since she never had air conditioning she would get up early and get her work done. She loved her chickens and her huge garden and strawberry patch. There was never a dandelion in her yard. She had a paring knife that she would use to cut them out. Grandpa Workman (who died way before I was born..my dad was in Germany at his passing) tried to teach her how to drive. She wrecked the car and never drove again. The old car sat in a fence row @ her house and we would pretend drive many miles in that car. I still remember how it smelled, how large the steering wheel was and how soft the seats were. She always had flowers and had a swing hanging from her tree. She spent many hours in that swing. I remember on Mother's Day 43 years ago swinging...the next day I gave birth to Reid. As a child I loved playing dress up in her robes (I don't think she ever wore them) and loved playing in her barn, cellar, pasture, chicken house..her upstairs and her whole farm...always barefoot of course. When I spent the night (on her couch) she would wake me up early with a bacon sandwich...I was never a breakfast eater and she just couldn't understand that...she made me eat the sandwich...I still remember how it tasted..well done bacon. I loved her caramel corn (made with sorghum )& put in a huge metal dishpan and I loved the peanuts that she roasted for us. When I was older I would mow her yard and she had so much stuff to mow around...she would come out and hold the swing back for me to mow under...it's a wonder I didn't run over her. She had 2 different collies that I can remember. Pepper and after Pepper died she had Pedro. They were her constant companions. Grandma was always trying to tell me stories about the past and I didn't care about that when I was young...but now I would give anything to have a day with her again to hear the stories. The most important thing grandma taught her kids was to love the Lord. She didn't talk about God, as I remember, she just lived it. I never remember her ever raising her voice and she never talked about people. She would sit in a little chair by her window and read her Bible. My dad still has that chair. Every Sunday we would pick her up and take her to Ingraham Christian Church. Out of the 7 kids, all but 1 went to church. My dad and his brother are the only 2 kids left. My dad is 92 and Loren, his brother, will soon be 95. Oh how the time flies. If you have grandparents living you should revere them, cherish them, respect them and listen to them because they will be gone in a blink of an eye. I felt guilt when grandma died...I hadn't spent enough time with her, didn't help take care of her when she was ill. I vowed not to let that happen with my other grandparents. I kept that vow and helped them until they passed away. It took me 27 years before I could go back to the house/farm where she died. My friend Rhonda Hoke and I went inside and the wallpaper was still there, the flooring, the bathroom still smelled the same. It gave me a sense of closure. Oh how I miss grandma, I see her in my dreams a lot and hopefully if I go to heaven, she will be the first one who greets me. It's through tears that I write this, she was so special."	Kepley, Isola Gertrude (I48570)

9421	The German spelling of his last name was "Jauch" According to legend, Jacob came to the United States in 1857 as a stow-away on the ship Arlington. I have not yet documented this fact. Jacob Yauch came to the United States in 1858 from Wurtemburg (Wittenberg) Germany, as a stow-away on a ship, having no fee for his passage. He was 19 years old & soon volunteered to serve in the Civil War with the Co. D. 108th Ohio Infantry. His unit was overrun in 1862 at Hartsville, TN but he managed to survive the tragic ordeal. Returning home he met & married a young Swiss girl, Margaret Hasler, who was 19 at the time. She was born in Canton Berne, Switzerland and had come to America with her family at the age of two. Jacob took up farming as a livelihood settling in Richland County, IL near the Glenwood neighborhood. Jacob worked hard on his farm for his family which eventually grew to eight children. He & Margaret's first six children were girls; Elizabeth, Rose, Della, Sarah (Sally), Della again, & Lillie Mae. There were then two sons John & Jacob born. Jacob and Margaret lost four children in infancy including the first "Della", thus accounting for their naming another daughter Della in 1879. Jacob died in 1899 at the age of 60.

He then went to France and worked as a stone cutter. On April 10, 1837, he married Catherine Moser. Time became hard so Casper and Catherine talked about going to the new rich country of America. They made the decision to risk it all and see if they could have a home and live in the new land across the sea. It was a bitter parting for Casper to leave his wife and children and go to America. There was one child on the way. Knowing that the way things were then, this child may never see its father. Casper cam to the United States in 1849. It took 38 days on the water to arrive. He had to take his own provisions on the ship, which consisted of a barrel of crackers and some cheese. Casper made his way to the small town of Bloomfield Indiana. There he met another man from Switzerland who had been in the country long enough to be able to speak English. It was a very happy meeting for him, he had not been able to find employment since he couldn't speak English. This man took him home and gave him food and shelter. The man's name was Kimerick. He was an iron worker and Casper being a stone cutter, the two men ended up working together. Casper got a job cutting stone for a bank in a town called Furnace, which was close to Bloomfield. The building was later moved to Bloomfield. Casper made enough money to send for his wife and children. Catherine was only able to bring a small amount of precious keepsakes with her. (Hand carved items, silverware, pictures, and a cow bell in particular. Catherine left for America in 1850 with seven small children and no help. The oldest one being ten. From New York she traveled down the rivers until she came to Louisville. From there she hired a covered wagon and oxen to take her to Mineral, where she camped. She knew her husband was in that vicinity. Casper spoke many of the languages of the countries in Europe. Some one came and got Casper and asked that he talk to some people as no one could understand them. He left work and went there hoping to learn something of his own family. He was most surprised to see his wife, Catherine, and his children! So, he happily gathered up his family and took them to a little home near Rockwood, which he had furnished mostly with his own hands. He probably changed the spelling of his name from Kasper to Casper sometime after arriving in America.	Hasler, Casper (I2171)
