152 Miresse, Shirley A. (Nee Corrigan ) Born to Eternal Life Thursday, October 1, 2015. Age 90. Beloved wife for 67 years of the late Arthur "Art". Dear mother of the late Steve (Leigh), Sandy (Bob Loos), Bruce (Luann), Joe (Vickie), Jim and Tony (Geneen).

In lieu of flowers, memorials to Clement Manor appreciated. Shirley was a charter member of St. Margaret Mary Church in Milwaukee. She was a loving mother and home maker, and was primarily responsible for raising her 6 children (during which, some would argue, she should have earned her sainthood). Once the children were older, she and Art would organize trips through their church and were able to travel to many wonderful destinations around the world. Mom, we know your final destination will be the best of all. We love you and we will miss you. We would also like to thank the dedicated staff at Clement Manor for the care and love they provided mom in her final years. CORRIGAN, Shirley Anne (I273)

169 Nelson was living at Rolling Ground, Crawford County, Wisconsin in 1863. He probably moved to Scotland County, Missouri in 1858 when the Nutters moved to Missouri. He may be the Nelson Enyart appearing on the 1900 census of Washington County, Kansas, without any apparent family. Nelson had a falling out with his brothers and sisters after being appointed executor of his father's estate and trying to abscond with the proceeds. There was a major lawsuit in 1863 surrounding this incident.

172 Nicholas did not come to the United States with the rest of the family. He came at a later time after his service in the army.": Robert Leishman papers in possession of Robert L. Quinnett.



Nicolas was apparently conscripted into the army at age 20 (1833) for seven years under the "Law of 1832 of Marshal Soult."

[He must have joined the family in New York, since the family probably moved to Wisconsin Territory between 1842 and 1844 -- see notes for Pierre, father of Nicolas, on the rationale for when the family moved to Wisconsin Territory.

TRAFFIC FATAL TO SEVEN ON THE FIRST DAY OF YEAR



Three Are in County; Weekend Toll Is 13 as 1961 Ends With 898 Fatalities



The New Year got off to a bloody beginning on Wisconsin's streets and highways as seven persons were injured fatally in traffic accidents before the first day of the year was over.

Three of the Monday fatalities occurred in Milwaukee county.

In addition, six other persons were injured fatally in earlier accidents over the holiday weekend and one died over weekend as a result of a Dec. 22 accident. The seven deaths brought the 1961 unofficial traffic toll to 898. In 1960 the total was 930 deaths. Last New Year's weekend resulted in 24 traffic deaths.

The Monday fatalities included a 90 year old man on his way to church, a 10 year old boy riding with his invalid grandmother, and a father of four small children on his way home from doing the family wash.



DRIVERS ARE HELD



Drivers involved in the Monday accidents included two men held on suspicion of drunken driving, a 15 year old who reportedly was driving 100 miles an hour and had been drinking, and a 24 year old man accused of leaving the scene of an accident,

The 13 weekend victims were:



Jack Stahl, 10, of 300 E. Drexel Ave., Oak Creek

Joseph Troka, 90, of 2334-A N. Bremen St., Milwaukee

.............FROM PAGE 1, COLUMN 7

RAN TAVERN FOR 35 YEARS

Melancholy Accident - On Monday morning last, as the ferry boat from Long Island was coming across to this port, having eleven persons on board, the wind blowing a gale from the South-wet, the boat upset and two of the passengers, Nathaniel Shannon, of Long Island, and his wife, were unfortunately drowned. It would appear there were twenty-five bushels of wheat, in bags, on board, and upon the vessel being struck with a heavy sea the wheat was thrown with some force to one side, which, it is said, was a great cause of her capsizing. On the accident being observed from the harbour, the crews of some of the schooners manned their jolly boats & proceeded with rescuing nine of them from a watery grave, who were taken to Her Majesty's Dock Yar, where every attention that humanity could suggest was paid to them. Some of them suffered severely, but we are happy to learn that they are now in a state of convalescence. The body of Shannon had not yet been found - that of Mrs. Shannon, it is said, never sunk. An inquest was help uponin, on Monday at the Dock Yard, and a verdict accordingly.

185 On familysearch.org there is a Christina Katharina Schilling female birth record of June 1, 1707 in Stetten Am Heuchelberg, Neckarkreis, Wuerttemberg.

192 Patrick and Nancy lived in Brock, Ontario 1840/1842. They appear in Mara for the 1851/1861 censuses. Patrick's petition for naturalization states that he emigrated to the USA via Port Huron in May of 1879. Then they lived in the Town of Brunswick, Eau Claire County for the censuses of 1880/1885. Their last address was 712/714 Lake Street in Eau Claire. After their deaths, the Hugh and Elizabeth Corrigans assumed residence there. DUFFY, Patrick (I235)
 
193 Phineas and Experience married about 1775. In 1781, they moved to Pittsford, Vermont. A brook flowed through the land he owned and it became known as Ripley Brook.

In 1775, Phineas enlisted in the Revolutionary War and served until 1783. On March 27, 1781, he petitioned from the township for land to compensate losses sustained by "incursions of the Enemy." In 1782 he was a Selectman in Pittsford and in 1785 he received a certificate of re-raising and paying their quota of men for the 1782 campaign.

In March 1790, Phineas was voted as the first grandjuryman of Pittsford. In 1795, he was a member of the Association chosen to contract for the building of a Congregational Church meeting house. For this he was paid $15. He turned that sum back to the church as a donation. In 1795, Phineas and Amos Kellog, as selectmen, laid out a road from Amasa Ladd's land eastward. This road was traveled many years, but is now given up.

On December 10, 1807, Phineas and his son William, bought 28 acres of land in Pittsford. Later, in 1828, Mr. Palmer bought the farm for three thousand dollars.

Although Phineas is documented as dying in Ohio, there is no record of him there. He was convinced to leave Vermont when he was about 70 years old. He lived another five years, probably living with his son, Dr. William Ripley.

It is written of Phineas: "Phineas Ripley was born in Windham, CT, where his early life was spent. He came to Bennington Vermont sometime during the Revolutionary war and enlisted in the army. He was soon appointed Sergeant Major, and served as such in the battle of Bennington. How long he continued in the army we are not informed, but married Experience, daughter of Samuel Montague, and located in Pittsford on the farm now owned by S.T. Fenton. If the deed of this land was ever recorded the record has been lost, and consequently we have no means of knowing who was the original Proprietor, or the number and division of the lot. His first clearning was on the east side of the book and he resided there in a log house til 1802 when he built the house now owned and occupied by Mr. Fenton."

Experience and Phineas had eight children. Phineas is a direct descendant of William Bradford.

A query by Robert L. Quinnett with a reply from Philippe Grangé, pgrange@sophocle.imaginet.fr, printed in Newsgroups: soc.genealogy.french on 5 May 1999, subj: Grangje=Grange? [Information on Philippe Grangé: Philippe Grangé,pgrange@univ-lr.fr, UNIVERSITE DE LA ROCHELLE, Centre Universitaire de Français Langue Etrangère, Faculté des Langues, Arts et Sciences Humaines (FLASH), 1, Parvis Fernand Braudel 17042 La Rochelle cedex 1, tél (33) 5 46 45 68 23, fax (33) 5 46 50 59 95, http://www.univ-lr.fr/flash/cufle.]--



Query by Robert L. Quinnett: Ma famille (Jean-Pierre Quinet, Marie "Granje", et huit enfants) a arrivée en les Etats-Unis de France vers 1832. Est-ce que le nom "Granje" est la même que Grange, Grangé, ou Granger? Bob.



Reply to Robert L. Quinnett from Philippe Grangé: Bonjour. En effet, je pense que c'est la même origine ; il y avait souvent des variantes dans la transcription orthographique des noms. L'orthographe "Granje" semble rare. "Granger" est la plus fréquente. (Para.) Vous savez sans doute que ce patronyme est originaire de l'ouest des Pyrénées (Béarn, Bigorre..) On suppose que nos ancêtres étaient propriétaires de granges (barns), ce qui, dans cette région montagneuse, désigne en fait la plupart des bâtiments agricoles. (Para.) C'est une des rares régions de France d'où l'on a émigré vers les Etats-Unis au début du 20e siècle. On appelait ces émigrants les "Barcelonettes" (du nom d'un village). Est-ce que votre aieule Marie Granje était une "Barcelonette"? (Para.) Meilleurs sentiments,...



Reply to Philippe Grangé by Robert L. Quinnett: Je ne sais pas, mais peut-être Marie habitée à Paris. Nous pensons que un fils de Marie, Joseph-Pierre Quinet, est né là le 26 août 1830. (Para.) Merci beaucoup pour les informations. Bob

I have discovered that de Granje is a name in the Netherlands which means that it is probably in Belgian Flanders also. Since many Quinet/Quinette live in Belgium, it is possible that Jean-Pierre and Marie came from Belgique. However, none of their descendants ever stated that. On the contrary they claimed (or seemed to claim as far as Archie Eli Quinnett was concerned) a French origin. Also, the Ozaukee County WI census shows France as place of origin. However, when they married in 1803, Belgium was part of France!: Robert L. Quinnett 5 Dec 1999.

195 Possible brother of Friedericke due to the fact that he was a witness to the marriage of her daughter Wilomene. HENKE, Frank (I2407)
 
196 Possible brother of William Thompson. Lives next door in same town in 1870-1880, close in age. Same birth information. THOMPSON, John (I1103)
 
197 Possible marriage on 15 Jan 1869 to a Maria Kleffen: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XRGH-BGC

Would explain the odd issues with Johann's mother as both women are Mary/Marie.
