Re: DeFriez

There are two women by the name of Mary Ann Godfrey DeFriez. Your great grand aunt, Mary Ann Godfrey Defriez, is the daughter of my great great grandmother Mary Ann Godfrey who married Joseph George DeFriez. She gave most, if not all, of her children her maiden name as their middle name. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Re: DeFriez

forrestlinderman — 2013-02-18 22:58:14Z

Frances, now it's getting confusing...I show that Maryann Godfrey DeFriez, b: Oct 17, 1853 as my great grand aunt. Also that she married William Charles Clifford Smith on June 15, 1878...

Does this have any new meaning for you?

Re: DeFriez - McCullough - Lybbert

fspendlove — 2013-02-16 18:22:48Z

My great grandmother was also Frances Godfrey DeFriez and I am a descendant of Frances and Samuel Walter Jarvis. I don't remember the name of the book but it tells about the
hymns in the LDS hymn book. According to this book it was written at the request of a Reverend H. R. Palmer, in 1874, when he asked her to write some songs on Sunday School lessons. Dr. Palmer composed the tune. According to this book, this hymn was sung at the bedside of James A. Garfield at his last illness and at his memorial services after his death. If you have other information I would really like to have it.

Re: DeFriez

fspendlove — 2013-02-16 17:54:38Z

My great great grandmother was Mary Anne Godfrey DeFriez. She was married to Joseph George DeFriez. They had a son, William DeFriez, born 11th Nov. 1845. He married Mary Amelia Ventom in 1867. Is this the William you mentioned in your message? Also mentioned in the George Jarvis and Joseph George DeFriez Genealogy book is a William DeFriez who was born in 1802 in London. There is also a William Webb DeFriez mentioned. I would appreciate any information you have. Thanks. Frances Spendlove

jodw2 — 2012-12-10 02:41:54Z

Hi Angela,
I was connected with Gene in the late 60s. That's where I got the Woodruff name. I really loved him, but his drinking problem got terrible. We had a bad breakup, and I haven't seen him since. Much to my surprise, I discovered last night on looking at the genealogy of my Great Grandmother Elsie Riggs, that I am related to your family. In fact Gene is my double cousin, because of cousins marrying, Henry Azmon Woodruff and Emma Manella Woodruff. Quite distant, about 10th cousin to Gene, but still interesting. I saw on the Internet that he moved to Las Vegas; we had thought about that. I wonder if you are still watching this message system? Do you live in SLC? I am in Cottonwood.

Re: Thomas E. Ray, aka Emmet Thomas Ray

RBestrom7380 — 2012-01-16 06:15:01Z

First damage control:
The Johnson-Cutshall Family tree correct link:
http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/21704170/person/1478682823?ss...=
You can access it if you have a membership to Ancestry.com; you can also try your local library (using their computer system and your library card, IF they have the library version).
--This tree identifies the father's obit and Thomas being identified as "Emmet Ray", who lived at Fort DuChene, UT.
--It identified Death of Thomas 20 Mar 1915 at Fort Leavenworth, KS, but "no evidence for the burial here being the same as Thomas Ray. Based on comments here in this posting and this family tree, I would "guess" you were the owner.
---Additional information: The 1870 Census of Yell, Boone County, Iowa, identified Thomas E. Ray as being 2/12ths in age. The census was enumerated on 2 August, so if correct, he was born about May/June 1870. Note: This is NOT backed by ANY documentation.

Now, let me answer your actual question:
His being at Fort Duchesne does not prove he was IN the military, but probable. There would be no information in the Utah archives about US Army members assigned, unless one individual had somehow been involved in something under the state jurisdiction or newsworthy.

Just for some TOTAL SPECULATION on this issue of his burial at Fort Leavenworth:
First, if he was alive and identified as being a military member at Fort Leavenworth at time of death. IF Thomas Ray WAS in the military at Fort DuChene in 1898, and he was the correct person that died at Fort Leavenworth, KS in 1915 as a private, there might have been military court martial for a major crime. A military member in 1898 should have progressed well past the rank of private in 17 years. To not so progress, the person might have been found guilty of a major crime, being reduced in rank to private, losing all pay and privileges and be incarcerated at the federal prison at Fort Leavenworth. This person that died in 1915, if the correct Thomas Ray would have been about 45. To me it sounds like two different persons, but the scenario can't be disproven or proven without facts.
---BUT, the actual marker
http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=ra...;
appears to be a marker reserved for a service member/honorably served. Or, in the possibility in this case, the marker was in regard to his service at ANY point in time previous. The marker shows very little "3403-A Thos. E. Ray, U.S.A. (US Army). The traditional marker for military service is more detailed than what is shown for what could be Spanish American War or WWI service. The same shield was used for Spanish American War veterans, but the unit information was more informative.
--The 3403-A is nothing more than the plot number. The actual transcription from:
http://www.interment.net/data/us/ks/leavenworth/fortleavnat/...
"Ray, Thomas E, d. 03/20/1915, PVT 2ND CO, US DISC BARRACKS GUARD, Plot: H 3403-A, *" (this stood for the 2nd company, US Disciplinary Barracks Guard, which to me "indicates" possible service in this capacity at the Fort Leavenworth prison. This also suggests to me [MY SPECULATION] this might have indicated an active duty death while performing duties, possibly an honor stone over a cenotaph (empty grave).
Records with an asterisk at the end indicates those that have not been verified as accurate by the U.S. Department of Veterans' Affairs. Please visit "The National Cemetery Administration Records Verification Project "
http://www.interment.net/column/records/nca/index.htm
for details on what this means. To report an error, please visit the Veterans Affairs website, click on "Contact the VA" and follow the instructions.
http://www.va.gov/

--I would suggest contact of the cemetery or the Department of Veteran Affairs for information about this person. The VA takes the application for these memorials from family members.

Now, as to any military records. Records would not be at Fort Duchesne, as any service records follow the member, and the service. For pre-WWI records:
http://www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records/pr...
...BUT, depending on when he served, the 1973 fire may have destroyed the primary records:

Hi DL,
First of all I found the Johnson-Cutshall Family Tree, http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/21704170/pers... which contains your Ray family. Of course you need to verify all of the information before you enter it in to your database.

A William Ray married Mary E. Dunkin 12 March 1850, Nodaway Co., Missouri.
Source: Missouri Marriage Records 1805-2002.

In 1870 the family lived in Yell, Boone, Iowa.
William L. Ray, b. MO, 39, farmer
Mary E., wife, b. MO, 38.
John W., b. IA, 18, farm laborer.
Elizabeth M., b. IA, 16.
Keziah A., b. IA, 14.
Mary F., b. IA, 12.
Otic C., b. IA, 2.
Thomas E. Ray, b. IA, 2/12ths.

In 1880 the family was living in Kirwin, Phillips, Kansas.
Wm. L. Ray, b. OH, 48, jeweler.
Mary E., b. MO, 48.
Thomas E., b. MO, 10.
Lettie J., b. IA, 7.

I didn't find Thomas Ray living at Fort Duchesne in 1900 but then I didn't find him anywhere on the Census.

There is an article about Fort Duchesne at www.archives.state.ut.us/research/indexes. "Fort Duchesne declined in use from 1890 to 1910. By 1893 the four infantry companies were removed to Ford Douglas. By 1909 there was only one company of cavalry left. . ." In 1910 after an Army inspection the fort was shut down.

I'd look in the Utah Archives for more information about the Fort.

I'd also order a copy of the obituary for the Thomas E. Ray who died in Kansas. William was a military man in the Mexican American and Civil War. Thomas might have followed in his footsteps and moved around with the military so he isn't found in the Censuses. Successful Searching!

Thomas E. Ray, aka Emmet Thomas Ray

DLKading — 2011-12-17 04:40:45Z

Thomas Ray was living in Fort Duchesne in 1898 when his father William Ray died (according to William Ray's obituary). Was Fort Duchesne an active military base at that time? Are there any searchable records associated with the Fort? Any guidance on how to search this clue would be appreciated. A Thomas E. Ray died in Ft Leavenworth KS in March 1915, and was a prviate in the US Army, but I have no proof this is the same Thomas....

Hi Sandy,
Someone has a large family tree on Ancestry with a lot of information about John Trujillo changing his name to John Moore. Every time I click on the index of info, the family tree does not appear.

A John Jesse Trujillo was living in Dragon, Uintah, UT on June 5, 1917.
Born: 19 April 1887, Grand Junction, CO
Race: Mexican (Latino)
Occupation: stockman, self-employed, Dragon
He claimed an exemption to World War I service because of his two children, marriage and disabled leg-caused by gunshot.
Source: World War I Draft Registration Cards 1917-18.

The note attached to this document says:
John Jesse Trujillo (Moore) rather than John Jesse Trujillo. My Grandfather chanted hisname to John Jess Moore in order to get married to Elsie Lee Gray because he was already married to his 1st cousin Mary Trujillo. Submitted by xylon420 on 10/28/2011.

You can order a copy of his birth certificate from Colorado. I'm not familiar with Colorado but I'd post a query on the Colorado Message Board about how to order a birth certificate. Successful Searching!

Clifford Larue Witherell was born the 31 May 1920 in Saidora, Illinois which is Mason County. He was born to George Gideon Witherell and Matilda Pearl Blake Witherell.He died 31 July 1982 in Newark, New Jersey.I am thinking they had service honors two years later which was 5 Sept. 1984 because his body was donated to science. He was married to Catherine Proctor on 22 Feb. 1944 in Newark, New Jersey, they divorced.He married Mildred Kalinoweski in Newark, New Jersey.She was born 19 Jan.1912 in Warsaw, Poland.She died 30 Sept. 1983 in Vernal, Utah.Burial Maeser, Fairview cemetery in Vernal ,Utah.

Clifford Witherell b. 1920 Illinois; buried Maesar Cemetery, Vernal, Utah

shaslam100 — 2009-06-08 02:56:24Z

I am searching for information related to Clifford Witherell b. 1920 in Illinois but who appears to be buried in the Maesar Cemetery in Vernal, Utah.

His parents were George Gideon Witherell and Pearl Matilda Blake...however, it appears that Pearl married a second time to Lavern Rhodes around 1928 in Illinois. I cannot locate any records for George Witherell after the 1920 census. Records on ancestry.com (the family trees) show that he died in 1956 in Illinois...but I cannot find any proof of that information.

I do know that their one daughter, Minnie Mabel Witherell, came to Utah and married into the Hardinger family (this is my connection to the family)...but until today I did not know that there were 2 other children - a daughter, Ilene (I don't know if that is the correct spelling), and a son, Clifford. Clifford apparently came to Utah at some time and is buried in the Maeser Cemetery according to the Utah State Burials Database.

One of the problems I am having with Clifford's information is regarding his death date - the Social Security Death Index shows that he died in Jul 1982; the Utah State Burials Database shows that he died in New Jersey on September 1, 1984 and was buried in the Maeser Cemetery on September 5, 1984. I tried to search the Uintah County newspapers (online), however, they do not appear online for the dates in 1982 OR 1984 that I needed to search.

The www.familysearch.org website shows that Clifford died on 31 Jul 1982, which matches the information of the SSDI, however, this record does not say WHERE he died...so I am quite perplexed by the whole issue!! I have made it a goal to try to never put information into my records that I could not confirm (or at least try to)...and since there are so many different dates here, I just don't know which to believe.

If there is anyone in the Vernal area who might be able to help me, I would greatly appreciate it. It gets harder to verify information the more current it gets, but I would like to try to get this figured out!!

Thank you very much for any help!!

Re: Jeremiah Hatch Murray

DeleneJaques — 2008-10-24 17:38:54Z

Glenda Madole,

? I just have a question on your grandmother, her name was Mary Murray? and was she a daughter of JHM or granddaughter?

In the family history book: Murray Family History compiled and published by descendants of Jeremiah Hatch Murray. I only see a Mary Murray Merkley of JHM children. She is on page 155. Their are several grandchildren of JHM named: Mary Murray

On page 174 I have a Mary Catherine Murray born on June 4, 1901 in Vernal. Her parents were Mary Jane Hansen and Samuel Ashby Murray and she marred Milton Le Vene Beers on July, 19, 1921. She had four children:

Milton
Betty
Earl
Marjoie

Is this your family? or was it another Mary Murray. There is more than one?

If this is your line please e-mail me at djaques@relia.net so we can add you to the Private Murray website.

Take Care,

Delene Jenkins Jaques
