Re: Elijah Dresser

mdtaffet — 2009-01-15 05:19:34Z

I looked to see if I could find your Elijah in either one of Jim Dresser's databases, but so far don't find any exact matches. I do see your guy in the 1870 and 1860 census records for Broome County, NY. Then during 1850 and 1840, I find him living in Hackensack, Bergen County, New Jersey. According to the 1870 census, he was born in New Jersey, but according to the 1860 and 1850 census records, he was born in Massachusetts.

The marriage of Elijah Dresser and his wife Elizabeth Ann Bourdett is recorded in New Jersey records, but there is no indication as to exactly where or when the marriage took place -- only that it was somewhere in New Jersey.

That's all I see for now.

Hello,
There are Dresser's still in El Reno, OK & one is a brother to my husband David. I have been looking for the parents of George Cyrus for several years. His birth state is still a mystery. If you have any clues, please get in touch with us.
here is some of what we have to go on;

Living in 1930 in Carter co, OK Hewitt Dist 54, George C. Dresser listed age 85 64 (b. ca 1845*) & born in KS, his father b. in the United States, his mother MO. Living with 2nd wife Della 69 yrs old b. OH parents VA, & OH.

In 1920 OK Carter co, Hewitt twp,
He was age 64 (?*b. ca 1856) born in MO parents born in MO
Living with Dela 63. b. OK, VA Ill (? didn't match 1930 info?)

1910 living in Jefferson co OK, Geo C. age looks like 44, born MO, parents both b. in MO, Della age 65 b. OH, parents Virginia (? again doesn't match 1920 or 1930?)
kids Pearl M. 12 b. KS father b. OHio, mother Missouri.
Robert C. 12 b. OK, father Ohio, mother MO ?
& 5 boarders living with them. 1 John Rice was in Printing.
He maybe a John Rice who was a photographer in early 1900's I've seen his name on early photos of Weatherford, OK for the early Normal School that became Southwestern OK University. ? not sure if it could be the same fellow???

1900 George born Aug 1857 42 yrs old, married 22 years, b. KS father Mississippi, mother looks like Tennessee? he was a butcher.
Elizabeth b. Oct 1862, 38 yrs married 22 yrs, 3 kids, 3 kids living, b. Missouri, Kentucky, Missouri.
Carlos son b. May 1886 14 yrs b. KS,
Earl G. son b. Sept 1888 11 b. Chickasaw nation OK territory.

1890 Cleveland co , Norman OK territory.
George age 31,
Elizabeth age ? 28,
Mabel dau 11,
Carlos son 19
Earl 11.

In 1880 census, KS, Montgomery there is a George Dresser household# 141, age 26 a photographer & Hattie ?T? age 21 wife. ? with several Boarder's in home.

His death cert list he died at Wirt, Carter Co OK, age 94 yrs 3 m 4 days, trade Railroad, b. in Clay co MO parents listed as unknown, informant was Della Dresser (Georges 2nd wife)

Newspaper obit says George Cyrus moved from Missouri to Kansas after he and Elizabeth Samples were married. He worked for the railroad while in KS and later moved to Oklahoma Indian Territory where he still worked for the railroad until he retired. He and Elizabeth separated after they moved to Okla. Newspaper said after Eliz died he remarried a 2nd time. <* I think they were actually divorced? but not sure= family stories>
They lived in Wirt, OK a town about two miles west of Healdton, OK. This was during the oil boom days and he and his wife run a boarding house and Resturant. A Baseball player named Jimmie Wood lived with them until his death. George Cyrus was very active in the Wirt Baptist Church where he was affectionaly known as Daddy Dresser. He was also the meat inspector for that area. After his death he was laid to rest in the Mount Olive cemetery at Healdton, OK he grave is not marked but is in the northeast section of the cemetery.

I have rec'd email from someone telling me that Mable was a daughter of Elizabeth & George C. raised her as his own. Dates of her birth Feb. 17, 1879 is several years different that the sons of George C. Carl S. b. March 1886, & George Earl b. Sept 14, 1888 & this is new info in our search to explore. Mabel is buried in Norman OK, she died March 3, 1903 & had married David Fox.

So we are still looking for clues on his parents & where he was really born. If you have found anything more please let us know. My email is kddresser@htswireless.com
Happy trails on all your researching too.

Re: Oliver Dresser Sr. - Revolutionary War Patriot

dresj2 — 2008-01-03 15:21:13Z

Oliver is identified as a Rev. War veteran in several locations, usually giving his position as a private in Capt. David Moore's company, Lt. Enoch Hallets' regiment. He enlisted on 1 August, 1780, for three months 'to reinforce the Continental Army', and discharged on 31 October, 1780, in Rhode Island.

one source is:
Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors of the Revolutionary War, State of Massachusetts, 1898. p. 968: Dresser, Oliver. Private, Capt. David Moore's co., Lieut. Col. Enoch Hallet's regt.
--also lists brothers Elijah and John...

several women joined the DAR as decendants of Oliver:
DAR membership: Ruth Dresser Moran; #738021, piggybacked on her aunt, Pauline Dresser Seffing, #420039.

A history of Princeton, MA, lists Oliver as a veteran of the Revolution who was living elsewhere when he served, in his case, Wendell.

I am researching Private Oliver Dresser Sr, a Revolutionary War Patriot for submission with the National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution (SAR).

Hello Jim,
My name is Anne Elizabeth Marie Dresser Brown born Oct. 13, '52. Right now I am shaking, excited and crying in disbelief! I believe I am your little sister! My father was Gerald Joseph Dresser and my mother was Thérèse Gilberte Moison Dresser.I am sorry to tell you that Dad died in 1957 (31 yrs. old) of heart disease. I was 5 yrs. old. Our mother died in Oct. 2000 (colon cancer) having never said anything to us about you. My older sister Jacqueline(born 19/09/48_ and I never understood why my mother never had a lavish wedding like her sister had. Mom & Dad eloped.They were married July 3, 1947 I am so in shock. I happen to go through some old papaers of Dad's yesterday which would have been your birthday!. Just for fun I was going to look up the Penetryn co. up to see exactly what Dad did. All I knew is that he built bridges. Dad had dual citizenship & worked in both Canada and U.S.A His mother died giving birth and his father, George lived in Albany, NY. He came to his son's funeral and I have never seen him again. Dad has one remaining brother, Donald living here in Ca. This is so dreamlike& surreal for me right now.I can't wait to speak to you and hopefully meet you. I bet you have dark brown eyes and hair and not too tall,5ft6 with a roundish face.We also had a brother Paul, who died in '67 at 17 yrs. of age of a kidney transplant. I imagine you must look very much like Paul. I hope your health is good. I have retinal eye disease, supposedly hereditary but Mom had no eye problems and Dad died so young- I'll never know whwere it really comes from. Anyways, our Mother was a teacher,so is Jacqueline and so was I until I retired on disability because of my eyes. I am going to end this because I can't wait to hear from you!

Hello Mary Elisabeth Michener
I was going through ny father's papers yesterday and found this Penetryn systems tax receipt. So out of curiosity, I wanted to know more about this co. Dad worked for. The last search was about 'ancestry' and I found your request. Gerald, my father died on Dec. 8, 1957. He was married to Thérèse Moison and they had 3 children- Jacqueline, Paul, and Anne. My brother Paul died at 17 yrs. old in 1967 and my mother died in 2000. My sister and I are both living 5 minutes away from each other.I am visually impaired so let me know if you need any more info.

John C. Dresser, Civil War Soldier from New Hampshire

rob_coughlin — 2007-08-11 16:35:10Z

I am looking info on John C. Dresser who was in the New Hampshire 2nd Infantry during the Civil War. The 1890 Veterans Schedule for Franklin, NH, lists my g-g-grandmother, Augusta Johnson Newton, as being a widow of him. But we never knew she was married to anyone of that name. Any leads that link these two will be very helpful.

Re: Mary R. Dresser Caywood of Michigan

2006-02-19 01:44:16Z

I looked over Jims Partial line and see Eugene Dresser with a birth date of 1851. According to the 1930 census he was born around 1847, he was 83 at this time. I recently found a 1900 cenus of Scipio twp. Hilladale Co., Mich showing a Eugene Dresser birth date of 1847 married to Jenny A. The area of the census is very close to Pulaski, about 4 miles away. Also in the 1860 census of Scipio twp. Hillsdale Co., Mich. I found a Family of Dressers

Hiriam Dresser 36
Caroline 31
Ella 11
Eugene 9 Born abt.1850
Carrie 4
Guddy 2
This family was also in Mosherville. This is what makes things confusing. I believe Hiriam dresser family is not associated with my eugene and Mary. But I am only guessing. Brooklyn Michigan is on the other side of Jackson. Brooklyn is about 30-40 miles to the East.

I also found Eugene Dresser working as farm laborer at the age of 32 (1847-48) in the 1880 census of Pulaski, Mich also. I am basically researcing the Lovitt and Caywood line of Pulaski.

Re: alfred dresser

2005-06-22 00:14:09Z

Could this be Alfred Woodruff Dresser who was born in 1831 in the UK and died in 1912 in Canada? I would be interested to know because if so he married into my family tree.

Re: Mary R. Dresser Caywood of Michigan

mdtaffet — 2006-02-18 23:33:49Z

John,

If this Mary is indeed the sister of Eugene Dresser, then perhaps she is an as of yet unknown child of James Eugene P. Dresser and his wife Janet Hay who moved from Columbia county, New York, to Michigan. Jim Dresser has James Eugene P. Dresser and what is known about his family available in the partial lines database:

<http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=jimdres...;

The son Eugene Dresser was living in Pulaski, Jackson county, Michigan in the 1880 census according to Jim's notes. But there is no mention of a daughter named Mary in Jim's file. I just took a peak at the 1850 census for James and Jane Dresser in Jackson County, Michigan, and I see no child by the name of Mary. In fact, there are no daughters listed at all -- only two sons. I also took a peek at the 1930 census. I do see a Mary R. Caywood with brother Eugene Dresser listed there, and both are described as having been born in Michigan, with their father and mother both born in New York.

All I can tell you right now is that there is a good chance that your Mary R. Caywood is indeed the sister of Eugene Dresser, and therefore the daughter of James Eugene P. Dresser and Jane Hay, but that as of right now, nobody knows anything about her. Jim has her parents on file, but there is as of yet no identification of who her paternal grandparents might have been. That's why they are in the partial lines database (i.e. because there is as of yet no known connection to the main line of John Dresser from England who immigrated to Rowley, Massachusetts in the 1600's).

I know of one other person who is researching the family of James Dresser and Jane Hay; Jim may know of more.

Re: 1870 Michigan Federal Census

mdtaffet — 2005-04-20 02:25:40Z

Kathleen,

It appears that my hunch was probably correct. Anthony and Mary Lavelette in the 1870 census with Julius Dresser appear to be the children from the first marriage of Julius's wife, Teresa/Theresa/Theressa Larabell.

If the facts shown in the following WorldConnect/Ancestry World Tree files are accurate, then Julius's wife Teresa/Theresa/Theressa Larabell was first married to Anthony Laviolette, and was the mother of Anthony, Marie, Mary Emily, and Mary Laviolette:

<http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=jacgray...;

<http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:a1022...;

The second file shows Theresa as having been married twice, with the second marriage to a Julius Normandy or Normandin.

I don't know whether Julius changed his surname from Dresser to Normandy/Normandin or what, if this latter entry is factual.

If you or your spouse are descended from Julius Dresser, what can you tell us about him?

Mary R. Dresser Caywood of Michigan

mcnamara194 — 2006-02-18 23:11:06Z

I have a Mary R. married to John Caywood. In the 1930 census, Pulaski Michigan There is a Eugene Dresser that apears to be her Brother living there. So I am assuming Mary's last name was Dresser. Mary was born 21 April 1849; died 15 March 1931 in Pulaski, Mich. Mary and Eugene were born in Michigan, being Eugene born around 1846. I am looking for ancestors etc.

"Mary M. Dreser:" deceased approx. 1870-1873 + Gassen

rebholzg — 2005-11-16 14:20:40Z

I have just found entry in a Milwaukee County (Wis.) probate file for a John Joseph Gassen:

"Jan 1873 amt. rec'd as heir of Mary M. Dreser"

This document in the probate record was assembled by Mr. Gassen's guardian, also his brother-in-law, George Goelz. This item was found in a hastily scribbled list, and made from bank records several years after the fact, so the death may have occurred later than 1872, and certainly well before 1872 if the estate took a while to settle.

I am not able to find a Mary M. Gassen Dreser in my Gassen research, but happy to share Gassen family info. with anyone who knows of a "Mary M. Dreser" as mentioned above.

Re: "Mary M. Dreser:" d. 1870-1873 + Gassen family

rebholzg — 2005-11-16 14:20:40Z

I have not solved the mystery so far. I also checked all the Milwaukee area church records for the period to see if there was a burial recorded. I have more reasons to trust the source of the name as it is written down (in a probate inventory) than mistrust the source. Short of accessing bank records of the period, it may just have to remain a mystery.

Thanks for your follow-up,

Roy Dresser, b. Jul 1892, son of Warren/Mary Dresser, lived Dubuque Co. and Lee Co., IA

margerice1 — 2006-10-12 05:47:17Z

I have an original studio photograph of “Roy Dresser”, which I’d like to get back to descendants or family members. Photo was taken in about 1910, in Dubuque (Dubuque Co.) IA, and Roy looks to be about age 18.

I found Roy W. Dresser, son of Warren N. and Mary E. Dresser, in the 1910 census for Van Buren (Lee Co.) IA. Roy’s DOB was Jul 1892. In the WWI Draft registration, he is listed as Roy Warren Dresser. SSDI shows he was born 21 Jul 1892, and died Lee Co., IA in Nov 1976.

Thank you, that is the Barbara Lou (Johnson) Dresser I was looking for. My connection is with Barbara. Her Grandmother is the sister of my Great-Grandfather. I have the names of Barbara's parents, additional info on her father, grandmother and information on her grandmothers line dated back to 1670.
I was hoping to find more information on Barbara, her husband, their children and any grandchildren. I am trying to update the previous family information, to have an updated family book.
I will check out the website, there be helpful info there.

Thank you again,
Amy

I am in possession of some family memorabilia pertaining to families having these people in them: Mary Whitelaw Osborne, Hattie Benedict Whitelaw, James. D. Whitelaw, Margret Whitelaw Stephens, William Leavitts Curtis, Gertrude Benedict Curtis, Eugene L. Benedict, Elizabeth Westly Benedict, Frank Westby Benedict, Weyburn E. Dresser, Izah M. Patch, Phoebe Dresser Benedict and Frances Benedict Stanhope.

Locales appear to be Clinton, Rock County, Wisconsin, Clinton, Clinton Co., Iowa and later the Beloit, Wisconsin area.

I would like to pass them on to a genealogist who can document a family connection. Please contact me for further information. I AM NOT PERSONALLY RESEARCHING THIS LINE.
