GENEALOGY
8/15/2017
Generation One
1. Jean (John) Gaston, b. ca 1600 in Foix, France.[1],[2]
Jean (John) Gaston of France was the first known ancestor of our Gaston family. There has been much speculation regarding his ancestry, ranging from descendancy from the Grand Duke of Tuscany to the possibility that he belonged to the Bourbon family and was a cousin to King Louis XIV of France. Jean Gaston belonged to a Protestant group known as Huguenots. On Apr 13 1598, King Henry IV of France endorsed the Edict of Nantes, which granted rights to the Protestant Huguenots. But the edict was abrogated in 1685 by King Louis XIV, who declared France entirely Catholic again and embarked on a policy of persecuting all Protestants. In the meantime, because of the political and religious climate, at age 40 Jean Gaston had fled with his family to Scotland, and his estate in France was confiscated. His brothers and sisters in France remained Catholics and sent money to him in Scotland until he became established there. Some 25 years later, his three sons fled Scotland for Ireland with their wives, also for religious reasons. Jean died in either Scotland or Ireland. [American Ancestry, Vol V, p. 104]
"That the Gaston family was a French family there is no doubt. As early as 1445, 'two gentlemen' of the name of Gaston, living at or near LaMothe St. Didier, became interested in what were believed to be wonderful cures wrought at the shrine of St. Andrew in that town, especially because one of these Gaston sons was there cured of the disease known as 'St. Anthony's Fire.' In consequence, they devoted their property to the work, and, seven other persons assisting, built a large hospital. The hospitallers soon founded the 'Congregation of Regular Canons of the Order of Anthony,' and one of the Gastons was made Grand Master of the Order. (See McClinton and Strong's "Cyclopaedia of Biblical Literature" (1894), Vol. I, p. 252). The name was common in France afterward. Alphonse Daudet, the noted French novelist, used the name 'Marie Gaston' as a pseudonym." [Anna Reger Gaston, "Gaston Family Lines of Somerset," published in the "Somerset County Historical Quarterly" in New Jersey]
There are numerous Gaston family crests, or coats of arms, pertaining to Gastons of various origins. Burke's "General Armory of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales" (Harrison & Sons, 1884) describes the one believed to be of our Gaston lineage as follows: GASTON of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. Chequy argent. On gueule. Three escallops in bend or. Crest: an owl sable. Motto: Fama semper vivit.
An excellent resource pertaining to Gaston origins and related information is the website Planet Gaston, found at http://perso.numericable.fr/planetgaston/en/index.html . Some Gaston researchers have attempted to show tenuous royal connections and paint a romanticized picture of the family history, and it is therefore likely that some embellishment of the facts has occurred over the years. The Gaston DNA Project, which affords participants an opportunity to find their common heritage through DNA testing and sharing of information, is found at http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/gaston
This is a genealogy of the descendants of this Jean (John) Gaston, with particular emphasis on those branches of the family tree closest to the principal compilers, Samuel David Gaston and Geneva Gaston Brown. The information presented here was obtained from countless sources over many years of research. Wherever possible, the original source is documented, but the reader can rest assured that even when a source is not specified, the compilers were highly confident of the accuracy of the information before including it in this genealogy. By its very nature, this collection is a work in progress, and additional information regarding the early generations, as well as the current one, will be added as it becomes known. In that vein, the reader is invited to inform us of any errors or additional information for future updates. [Samuel David Gaston (1934-2012) & Geneva Gaston Brown (1926-2001), principal compilers; R. L. Brown, editor]
He married Agnes ___, in Scotland,[3],[4] d. aft 1650 in Melrose, Roxburghshire, Scotland.
Agnes: Some researchers identify Agnes as possibly the daughter of Phillip of Navarre, and it is also said that she was accused of witchcraft in 1650 [per "Surnames of Scotland" by George F. Black]. But other researchers have convincingly refuted those assertions, and have further cast doubt that the wife of Jean Gaston was named Agnes at all. Although we side more with the skeptics, we nonetheless report Jean Gaston's wife as Agnes simply out of tradition.[5],[6]
Children:
2. i. WILLIAM GASTON b. ca 1642.
3. ii. JOHN GASTON b. ca 1645.
iii. ALEXANDER GASTON, b. 1648 in Scotland, d. in Ireland, immigrated abt 1660-1668 to County Antrim, Ireland.3
Alexander Gaston, along with his brothers, John and William, went to County Antrim in Northern Ireland between 1662 and 1668, during the time of the persecution of Protestants in Scotland. Alexander Gaston left many descendants in and around Ballymena, County Antrim, Ireland. One of them was a certain Miss Gaston of Killycowan, who was reportedly the great-grandmother of U.S. President Chester A. Arthur. (Exact lineage not specified, has never been determined, and the connection is considered tenuous at best. The genealogy of President Chester A. Arthur can be found at various websites, including our own treatment at www.doddridgecountyroots.com/register/arthur.htm )[7],3
Generation Two
2. William Gaston (1.Jean1), b. ca 1642 in Scotland, d. in Ireland, immigrated abt 1660-1668 to County Antrim, Ireland.3
William Gaston (b. 1642), along with his brothers, John and Alexander, went to County Antrim in Northern Ireland between 1662-1668. He is referred to by genealogists as "the first Irish William Gaston" to distinguish him from brother John's son William and others. He was the father of the Charleston, South Carolina, Gastons who emigrated in the 1760's-1770's from County Antrim, Ireland.[8],4

viii. JAMES GASTON.
Presumed to be a son of Hugh Gaston (b. 1687), as a James Gaston, probably a brother to John Gaston of New Jersey (b. ca 1719), was listed as a subscriber to the fund for building Allentown Church parsonage, 1758, in connection with that of John Gaston of Upper Freehold. However, that James Gaston may actually have been the one baptized on Mar 28 1742 as the eldest son of John Gaston (b. ca 1719).
The name of James Gaston appears as a member of the congregation of Lamington Church, Bedminster Twp, in the years up to 1766. A James Gaston (probably the James b. ca 1750, son of William b. 1720) also took up land in Mt. Bethel Twp, Northampton Co, Pennsylvania, in 1773. The Name of James Gaston appears on tax lists of Cecil Twp, Washington Co, PA, in 1787 and 1788, and in Rostraver Twp, Westmoreland Co, PA, in 1789.[22]

7. Mary Gaston (3.John2, 1.Jean1), b. 1695 in Ireland.[24] She married James Cauldwell, in Ireland,24 b. 1691 in Ireland.24
From "Family Records or Genealogies of the First Settlers of the Passaic Valley," p. 68: "James Cauldwell, with his wife Mary, emigrated from Ireland, about the year 1732, when his son William was six years old, and settled on Long Hill, on lot No. 30, addition of the Elizabethtown lots, which it appears he drew. From tradition among the families, it would seem, and I am led to believe, that James Cauldwell's wife was Mary Gaston, sister of the father of Hugh Gaston, of Peapack. Hugh Gaston was brother of Capt. William Logan's wife, and probably also brother of the wife of Thomas Kirkpatrick, at Liberty Corner. His children called him Uncle Hugh Gaston, and Mr. Gaston, Mrs. Logan and the old Kirkpatrick family claimed kin to the Cauldwell family."[25]

Although other researchers allow that only Alexander Gaston's (b. 1702) four oldest children emigrated to America, at least one, Edward H. Couey of Scotts Mills, OR, contends that all six did so, settling in Chester and York Counties, SC. As he cites specific circumstances for this, we provide that information under this Alexander's son Alexander (b. ca 1750).
He married Jane Harper, in Ireland.6
Children:
i. ROBERT GASTON b. ca 1733 in Ireland.6
39. ii. JOSEPH GASTON b. Oct- 8-1738.

12. John Gaston, also known as Justice John Gaston (5.William3, 3.John2, 1.Jean1), b. Apr- 4-1703 in Ireland [Headstone has birth date as 1700, while "Gaston of Chester" states ca 1710.], d. 1782 in South Carolina,17,3,[42],[43] buried in Burnt Meeting House Cemetery, Wylie's Mill, Chester Co, SC,17 resided (settled 1751/52) at Fishing Creek, Chester Co, SC,3 immigrated 1749 to Pennsylvania,3,[44] occupation farmer, surveyor, Justice in South Carolina.13
Emigrated first to Pennsylvania in 1749, then to Chester District, South Carolina, in about 1751-52, settling on Fishing Creek. Served as King's Justice before 1776, and as leader of the patriots of his vicinity during the British incursion of 1780-81. He is often referred to by Gaston genealogists as "Justice John." The nine sons of John and Esther Gaston served as soldiers in the American Revolution, and four of them lost their lives in that war.
An account of Justice John Gaston is found in the historical novel "Polly of the Pines," by Adele Eugenia Thompson, published in 1906 by Lothrop, Lee & Shepard Company. Polly was Mary Dunning, a brave girl of the Carolinas, and the events of the story take place in the years 1775-1882. She was an orphan living with her mother's family, who were Scotch Highlanders, and for the most part intensely loyal to the Crown. Polly finds the glamour of royal adherence hard to resist, but her heart turns toward the patriots, and she does much to aid and encourage them. The book is available in reprint and in PDF form online at Google Books.3,44

Resided at Lynch's Creek, Lancaster County, SC. Lived previously in Pennsylvania after his emigration to America. Some of his descendants moved to Illinois. Performed patriotic service during the Revolutionary War by supplying beef and a horse for the American cause. Regarding the children of Robert and Margaret Gaston, Burgess' "The Gaston Genealogy," p. 87, makes no mention of Stephen, and provides Thomas only as an unconfirmed possibility. But other sources, particularly Mary Gaston Gee, provide strong confirmation of Thomas Gaston and also include Stephen. Hanna, without identifying a wife, lists only six children for this Robert Gaston, making no mention of either Thomas or Stephen.51

34. John Gaston (10.Alexander3, 3.John2, 1.Jean1), b. Mar- 3-1746,35 d. Sep- 6-1834 in Stockbridge, Berkshire Co, MA,35 [But Jane Farrell Burgess, in "The Gaston Genealogy", p. 46, reports his death as Sep 9 1834 in Richmond, Mass.].
Hanna's "Ohio Valley Genealogies," p. 48, contains an apparent misprint, in that it shows a John Gaston (b. 1746) as a son of Alexander (b. 1754), with that John in turn having a son John (b. 1786). Since this is an absolute impossibility, we conclude that the John (b. 1746) was actually meant to be a son of Alexander (b. 1714), which Hanna also shows. Burgess' "The Gaston Genealogy," p. 44, shows a John Gaston born 1/8/1786 to a John Gaston. Taking all this into account, we believe the lineage is correct as we present it. Burgess also shows other children born to a John Gaston in Berkshire Co, MA, in the same general time frame, but there is insufficient evidence to conclude (particularly since we don't know his wife's name) that that was the same John Gaston (b. 1746). Those children and their parents as listed were: Mary, b. 10/20/1774, dau of John & Miriam Gaston (prob the same as Mary, baptized 2/27/1786, dau of John Ghaston); Eunice, b. 11/16/1777, dau of John & Miriam Gaston (prob the same as Eunice, baptized 12/1/1785, dau of John Ghaston); Elizabeth, baptized 12/1/1785, dau of John Ghaston (poss the same as Elizabeth Gaston, b. 4/10/1784, parents not listed); Rachel, baptized 12/1/1785, dau of John Ghaston (poss the same as Rachel Gaston, b. 5/23/1780, parents not listed); Achsah, baptized 12/1/1785, dau of John Ghaston (poss the same as Achsa Gaston, b. 4/6/1782, parents not listed) (another entry shows Achsah Gaston, granddaughter of Dea. John Gaston, adopted by him and his wife and baptized on 7/21/1811); Harvey, b. 1/4/1788, son of John Ghaston; Joseph, b. 11/15/1789, son of John Ghaston; Harriot, b. 7/15/1792, dau of John Ghaston; and Abi, b. 10/16/1794, dau of John Ghaston.[90],35

36. Janet A. "Jennie" Gaston (10.Alexander3, 3.John2, 1.Jean1), b. Dec-27-1750.35
Identified by Hanna in "Ohio Valley Genealogies" as Janet A. Gaston, daughter of Alexander Gaston & Mary "Molly" Wilson, but by George M. Kasson in "Genealogy of a Part of the Kasson Family in the United States and Ireland" as Jennie Gaston, parents not identified.
She married35,[92] Robert Kasson, b. 1741,92 (son of William Kasson and Elizabeth McKay), d. Sep-25-1826, resided in Broadalbin, Fulton Co, NY,92 occupation wheelwright.92
Robert: Robert Kasson was a soldier in the French and Revolutionary wars. But in the latter war, he objected to the calling in of French aid, because they were Roman Catholics. He ultimately left the service, for which he was court-martialed, but later reprieved.92

Although identified by some sources as a "Captain," other reliable sources specify that this Alexander Gaston enlisted as a Private in Capt Aaron Rowley's company in John Brown's detachment of the Berkshire County militia on June 30 1777, and that he was discharged on July 26 1777, having "served twenty-seven days at Fort Ann, on an alarm at Ticonderoga." - See "Soldiers and Sailors of Massachusetts," Vol. VI, p. 306.
In addition to the ten children given by other sources, Robert "Bob" Gaston of Longview WA, a direct descendant, also identifies an eleventh, Albert Gaston. Since this is Bob Gaston's direct line, we include it here.[95]
He married Huldah Norton, Feb-12-1782,[96] b. Jun- 9-1765,[97] d. Apr-26-1832.97

ii. ELCY (ELSIE) GASTON b. Jan-22-1785 in Richmond, Berkshire Co, MA,91 d. Nov-29-1810.38
The same date, Nov 29 1810, is given by Jane Farrell Burgess for Elcy Gaston's marriage, and by Bob Gaston of Longview WA for her death. Both citations appear credible in their context and are presumed correct.
She married Jacob Chamberlain, Nov-29-1810 in Richmond, Berkshire Co, MA.[98]

Joseph Gaston emigrated to South Carolina with two brothers, Robert and Matthew, and a sister, Jane Gaston Walker, leaving a brother Alexander in Ireland.

Received a land grant in present-day Chester Co, SC, but moved soon thereafter to Rowan Co, NC, where he married his cousin, Ann Simonton. Her mother, Margaret Gaston, had lived and been married in Lancaster Co, PA, moving to North Carolina about 1755. [Per Edward H. Couey, Scotts Mills, OR] (Note: Margaret Gaston's presumed connection to other Gastons in this genealogy is not known. Ann Simonton's parentage and other personalia as enumerated here is from the Reid Genealogy and is considered more reliable than other conflicting info.)
He married (1) Ann Simonton, Aug-12-1768 in Lancaster Co, PA,104 b. 1746 in Pennsylvania,[106] (daughter of Robert Simonton and Margaret ___), d. Dec-13-1793 in Greene Co, GA.104 He married (2) Rebeckah Hardin, Dec-12-1793.104

Hanna's "Ohio Valley Genealogies," p. 42, states that Alexander Gaston (1750-1840), a great-grandson of the first Irish William, remained in Ireland when his four siblings Joseph (who married Martha Gaston), Robert, Matthew and Jane (who married a Walker) emigrated to America and settled in South Carolina.
But it has been reported by some researchers, including Edward H. Couey, a descendant of this Alexander, that he left Ireland in late 1772 with Reverend William Martin's five shiploads of Scottish Presbyterian Covenanters; was granted land on Jan 6, 1773 in present- day York Co, SC; moved to present-day Madison Co, KY by 1787, back to old Abbeville Co, SC by 1797, back to Kentucky after 1800 where he sold his property in 1808, and moved by 1815 to Randolph Co, IL, where he shortly died. Original sources for this information are not known.6

Hanna, in "Ohio Valley Genealogies," p. 41, states that this James Gaston, b. Apr 15 1747, had a son Stephen and several daughters, and that they moved to Ohio in about 1801-02. Burgess, in "Gaston Genealogy," p. 119, reports the same children as Hanna. Neither makes mention of James' wife. "Chester County Heritage History," p. 196, states that this James Gaston married Margaret, that they had a son Stephen and a number of daughters, and that they moved first to Tennessee and later to Indiana Territory. Subsequent research by others, as reported on the LDS familysearch.org website, has revealed the family information found here.

Before her marriage to Alexander Walker, Esther Gaston was cited for her heroic deeds during the American Revolution. During the Battle of Rocky Mount, when she saw three men fleeing, she asked to take their arms and fight in the battle herself. This prompted the men to return to the fighting. With patriotic spirits and kind hearts, she and her sister-in-law aided the wounded and dying during the Battles of Rocky Mount and Hanging Rock, dressing the wounds and quenching the thirsts of the seriously injured.[114]
She married Alexander Walker, b. 1763,[115] (son of Thomas Walker and Jane Gaston).
Alexander Walker was the g-g-g-grandson of Jean Gaston (b. ca 1600 in France), while his wife Esther Gaston was the g-g-grand-daughter of the same Jean Gaston. They were thus third cousins once removed.

William Gaston of North Carolina entered Georgetown on Nov 22 1791 as the first student to enroll. Though health forced his transfer to Princeton, where he was placed in the third year of studies after a year and a half at Georgetown, Gaston remained close to the faculty throughout his life. He served in the U.S. Congress 1813-15, where he introduced the legislation chartering the college, and served as Chief Justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court 1833-44. In 1817, he voluntarily retired from Congress and never again entered national politics, declining in 1840 the offer of the U.S. senatorship and in 1841 the offer of a seat as Attorney General in the cabinet of President Harrison. He wrote the state song of North Carolina, where the city of Gastonia and the county of Gaston are named in his honor.

"In 1835, Gaston was an influential delegate to the North Carolina Constitutional Convention, where he fought to have religious qualifications for office holding dropped and where he attempted to protect the voting privileges of free people of color. Gaston also supported federal representation as the basis for representation in the House of Commons and biennial meetings of the state legislature.
"Gaston's law practice was very successful and his reputation in legal circles was of national scope. Daniel Webster and John Marshall, among others, consulted with him on legal questions. In 1833, Gaston was elected by the state legislature to a post as an associate justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court, where he served until his death in 1844. Gaston's most famous decision on the bench came in 1834 with the case of State v. Negro Will. Gaston ruled that a slave had the right to defend himself against an unlawful attempt of a master, or an agent of a master, to kill him. In the significant case of State v. William Manuel in 1838, he held that a manumitted slave was a citizen of the state and thus entitled to the guarantees of the constitution. Gaston purchased a library for the state Supreme Court while on a trip to New York City in 1835. "

Some accounts put his two older children, Alexander and Susan, as being by his first wife, Susan Hay, but according to his biography, "William Gaston, Carolinian," by J. Herman Schauinger (Bruce Publishing Co, Milwaukee, WI, 1949), Susan died just eight months after they were married. Because his second wife, Hannah, died in 1813, it is clear that his first three children were by her, and his last two by his third wife, Eliza Ann Worthington, daughter of the college physician.[147]
He married14 (1) Susan Hay, Sep- 4-1803 in Fayetteville, Cumberland Co, NC,124 b. ca 1787,124 (daughter of John Hay and ___ Grove), d. Apr-20-1804.124

Hannah: Children Alexander and Susan are reported in Hanna's "Ohio Valley Genealogies," p. 42, as being William J. Gaston's children by his first wife. But Hanna also concurs with the 1803 and 1805 dates of William's first two marriages. Several months pregnant, Hannah died of convulsions brought on by news that the British were about to attack her town. Their three children stayed with William's sister Jane in Raleigh for the next three years. William Joseph Gaston and Hannah McClure were first cousins once removed, as he was the grandson of William Gaston (b. 1680 in Ireland) and she was the great-granddaughter of the same William Gaston.
He married (3) Eliza Ann Worthington, Sep- 3-1816 in Georgetown, Washington, DC,56 (daughter of Charles Worthington), d. Jan-19-1819 in North Carolina.124

Robert: Robert Donaldson was a Scotch merchant from New York City, with financial interests in North Carolina. Robert and Susan were married in the Gaston home by Bishop John England. They lived in Fayetteville, NC during the winter, and in summer at Robert's home in New York on the Hudson River.

From a listing of baptisms in "History of the Old Tennent Church," p. 210: "John Gaston Jr., whose Father was Murthered by the Indians; had bap. William, Sep. 6, 1761; Joseph, July 17, 1763; John, Apr. 14, 1765; Samuel & James, Twin Children, Apr. 12, 1767."[162],[163]

The birth/death dates of May 8 1778 & Feb 28 1858 are from Hanna, p. 43. Death and burial locations are from Peter & Jane Topoly, original source not stated. A headstone for this Elizabeth Gaston conforming to those dates could not be found at the Mingo Creek Presbyterian Cemetery. However, there was a headstone there for Elizabeth Gaston, who died Apr 25 1858, age 80. If this is the same person, which is likely, the reason for the discrepancy in the death date is not known.
75. William Gaston (22.William4, 6.Hugh3, 3.John2, 1.Jean1), b. ca 1742 in Somerset Co, NJ,15 [Probably. Hanna, p. 43, gives birth date as 1742-48.], d. ca Apr 1801 in Upper Mt. Bethel Twp, Northampton Co, PA.15,68 He married15,68 Elizabeth Simonton (daughter of Robert Simonton and Margaret ___).

There is some speculation that this may be the James Gaston who was a Justice of the Peace of Somerset County in 1781 and was appointed a lay Judge in 1783, as further information regarding him is lacking.15
He married69 Elizabeth Lyle, b. 1760 in Northampton Co, PA,69 (daughter of Robert Lyle and Mary Gilleland).

77. Hugh Gaston (23.Joseph4, 6.Hugh3, 3.John2, 1.Jean1), b. Jan-18-1764 in Somerset Co, NJ,15,71 d. Jun-24-1839 in East Liverpool, Columbiana Co, OH,15,[165],71 ["History of the Upper Ohio Valley" (p. 146) reports death date as about 1837, but great-grandson Frederick Waage Gaston's SAR application shows it as 1839.], buried in Columbiana Co, OH.
Birth place appears in "History of the Upper Ohio Valley" (p. 146) as Ireland, which is considered incorrect, as grandfather Hugh Gaston emigrated from there in about 1720. Anna Reger Gaston reports it unequivocally as Somerset Co, NJ. Hugh Gaston resided in Bedminster Twp, Somerset Co, NJ in 1787. According to Hanna's "Ohio Valley Genealogies," p. 44, in about 1795-1799, Hugh moved to Washington County & Lycoming County, and then to western Pennsylvania & Ohio. But the date of his departure from New Jersey is considered suspect, since the birthplace of his older children, born before 1795, is shown in census records not as New Jersey, but as Pennsylvania. Hugh Gaston and Grace Gaston were second cousins, as both were great-grandchildren of John Gaston (b. 1645 in Scotland).71

Dr. Alexander Gaston settled with his mother in Canton Twp, Washington Co, PA about 1792. He later moved to Brooke Co, (W)VA, and from there, in about 1800, to near St. Clairsville, Belmont Co, OH, and from there, in about 1811, to Morristown, Belmont Co, OH. Upon his move in 1800, he "was accompanied by two men, who helped him cut the timber and build a cabin on his land. They camped out two weeks under the cover of their wagons, and were often awakened from the howling of wolves which infested the forests. His family consisted of a wife and three children. For several years after their settlement, they went all the way to Washington, Pa., to purchase groceries. At the time that Dr. Gaston's mother settled in Washington, the place contained but four houses. He followed blacksmithing for a couple of years. Read medicine and began practice of the same in 1809. In 1811 he removed to Morristown, where he died in 1825. He had an extensive practice which took in Woodsfield, Middletown and Freeport."71,169
(Note: Hanna, after presenting Alexander's family and lineage as we have it here, describes another account of this Alexander Gaston which states that he was the son of Ephraim Gaston, who was the son of Ebenezer Gaston, who migrated from Ireland with his brother Matthew (died unmarried); that Alexander had a brother Joseph, who settled in southern Indiana, and another brother who settled in West Virginia. Hanna points out that this account probably assumes Joseph, son of John, who married in South Carolina and settled in Butler County, Ohio, to have been the brother of Alexander.)19

Elvira Gaston and her husband, Lester Ward Platt, worked as missionaries with the Pawnee Indians in Nebraska for years. There is much written about her because, as one descendant observed, "she made history." [Bob Gaston, Longview, WA]
"Elvira Gaston Platt was born in Danby, New York, on July 16, 1818. Her family moved to Ohio in 1834 and she became a student at Oberlin College the following year. She later taught at a rural school in Russia Township, Ohio. In 1841 she married Lester Ward Platt and moved with him to Nebraska to teach the Pawnee Indians. Both were devoted to the causes of abolishing slavery and whiskey. After her husband died in 1875, Elvira Gaston Platt taught in the Industrial School for Indians in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and served as matron in a school for Indians in Geoa, Nebraska. She died on January 24, 1914."

"Elvira Gaston Platt, teacher and abolitionist and underground railroad worker, was born in Danby, Thompkins County, New York, on July 15, 1818. She studied at Oberlin College in Ohio in 1835 and 1836 and began teaching in area rural schools. In 1841 Elvira Gaston married Lester Ward Platt and in 1842 they began teaching Pawnee Indians in the western territory, in what is now Nebraska. In 1847 they moved to Fremont County, Iowa, turned to farming, and began assisting fleeing slaves on the underground railroad.
In 1861 Elvira Platt returned to teaching Pawnee children, which she continued until 1872 with a few interruptions for Civil War work. Lester Platt died in 1875 and Elvira Platt joined the staff of the Industrial School for Indians in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, in 1880. Three years later she became matron of a new school for Native Americans in Genoa, Nebraska, where she worked until she retired in 1887. She lived in Tabor, Iowa, until 1897, when she moved to Oberlin, Ohio. She died there on January 25, 1914." [ http://sdrc.lib.uiowa.edu/iwa/findingaids/html/PlattElvira.htm ]
HER OBITUARY:
"Elvira Gaston Platt, aged 95 years, died at Oberlin, Ohio, Sunday, January 25, of pneumonia, where a funeral service was read. The body was then brought to Tabor for interment in the Gaston lot where her husband and other relatives lie. Services were held here on Wednesday, January 28, conducted by Rev. C. F. Fisher.
Elvira Gaston Platt was a sister of George B. Gaston, one of the founders of Tabor College, and an aunt of Ed Rossiter, Loren Hume and Harry Gilbert of Tabor. Coming from her native state, New York, she and her father were pioneers of the Oberlin colony, where she was married in 1841, to Lester W. Platt, with whom she soon afterward moved to Nebraska. Here at different intervals, in the Pawnee Indian Nation school she taught and also in the Carlyle school in Pennsylvania, all her life being spent in educational work.
At Percival (then known as Civil Bend) she lived, her home a "shrine" to young and old.
She served in the Sanitary Commission during the civil war, and was later matron of the Soldiers’ Orphan Home at Cedar Falls.
Mrs. Platt made her home in Tabor for many years and made her life felt here for uplift. For the last seventeen years she has lived at Oberlin. In the 95 years of her life, Mrs. Platt has combined manifold experiences, and has seen and helped in the upbuilding of our western country.
She was known throughout many states as a woman of great power. A memorial service will be given in her honor here at Tabor."

Obituary, Carolina Observer (Fayetteville NC), Dec 1 1862, reprinted from Raleigh Standard:
"Death of Hugh Jones Gaston. -- We record with much regret the death of Hugh Jones Gaston, Adjutant of the 48th N. C. Troops. He was wounded in the battle of Sharpsburg, in his shoulder and face, and died at a farm house near that place about the second week in October last.
"Adjutant Gaston was the youngest son of Alexander Gaston, Esq., who was the only son of the Hon. William Gaston. His only brother, William Gaston, was killed by the Indians, near Fort Walla Walla, some four or five years since, in his first engagement; and Hugh received his death wound in his first engagement at Sharpsburg. Hugh Jones Gaston was the last male of the name.
Adjutant Gaston was physically exempt from military duty, but at the beginning of hostilities he volunteered as a private in an artillery company at Memphis, and remained there until his native State was threatened, when he returned and offered his services to her. He was a young gentleman of fine education, modest, intelligent, and brave. His death adds another to the long catalogue of our bravest and best young men, who have been cut off by this war."

1880 Census, Lewis County, WV (Freeman's Creek), enumerated on Jun 2 1880:
Hugh Gaston, 91, farmer, b. New Jersey, both parents b. New Jersey; wife Elizabeth Gaston, 77, b. Virginia, both parents b. Virginia; step-daughter A. Washburn, 53, b. Ohio, both parents b. Virginia.
(NOTE: Hugh Gaston is identified by some researchers as Hugh H. Gaston, based on a mistranscription of this census. His name clearly is entered as Hugh Gaston, with no middle initial.)
He married (1) Susana Jett, Dec-12-1811 in Harrison Co, (W)VA,243 b. ca 1788,[246] d. bef 1840,[247] census 1830 in Harrison Co, (W)VA, marriage bond Dec- 7-1811 in Harrison Co, (W)VA.[248]
Susana: No record of the parentage or other information of Susana Jett has been found.
We previously reported her birth date as "bef 1798," source not documented. But that would have made her only 13 at the time of her 1811 marriage. Then we found the 1830 Census giving her age as between 40 and 50. That puts her birth sometime between 1780 and 1790. It is likely that she was born toward the end of that range, based on Hugh's known 1788 birth date.
In Book 2, p. 388, of Harrison County Marriage Bonds is a record of a bond of $150 being paid by Hugh Gaston and James Coberly (spelling may be Cubberly) in connection with the marriage of Hugh Gaston and "Susana Jett of full age." It is unknown what relationship existed between James Coberly and Susana Jett. We have found only that a James Coberly (b. 1779) and wife Letitia "Tisha" Jett (b. 1783) were residents of Harrison/Gilmer Co in that time period.
A W. Guy Tetrick family information survey completed by great-grandson Ira Dow Gaston in 1931stated that his grandparents were Hugh Gaston, born 1788, died July 5 1888, and Susana Jett, born "unknown," daughter of "unknown," they were married in 1811, and she died May 1 1849. The reported death date is considered suspect,, since she did not appear in the 1840 Census of the Hugh Gaston household, so it is assumed that she died prior to that undated enumeration. Hugh is known to have remarried on June 1 1848.

He married (2) Elizabeth King, Jun-1-1848 in Lewis Co, (W)VA,[249] b. 1801,48,[250] [Although her death record gives her birth place as Kentucky, the censuses of 1860, 1870 and 1880 all show it as Virginia.], d.

Elizabeth: Elizabeth King's first husband was Isaac Washburn, who she married in Kentucky in about 1819. In the 1880 Census of Lewis County, the household of Elizabeth and second husband Hugh Gaston includes Elizabeth's daughter Amanda Washburn. Amanda is also buried in the Gaston-Henry cemetery, sharing a common headstone with her mother and stepfather. Her name appears on the headstone as Amanda S. Washburn, dates 1825-1901.241

Oct-20-1839 in Hackers Creek, Lewis Co, (W)VA.276
Isaac: There is some disagreement among researchers as to Isaac R. Swisher's name. Variations offered are Isaac Lewis Swisher, Lewis Isaac Swisher, and Isaac R. Swisher. Based on information in the death records of his son & grandson, we conclude it was Isaac R. Swisher. Researcher E. Murray Taylor is in agreement with this, theorizing that the commonly found variation Lewis Isaac Swisher originated in the hand-written marriage record of Isaac Swisher being married in Lewis County.
Nearly all information listed here pertaining to the descendants of Lewis Isaac Swisher and Jane Gaston, unless otherwise noted, is courtesy of the research efforts of E. Murray Taylor, Jr., of Fairmont, WV, much of which centered on an existing Swisher family genealogy and the William A. Marsh 1880 Census of Lewis County, WV.

189. Andrew Dickson (93.Phebe5, 32.Margaret4, 9.John3, 3.John2, 1.Jean1), d. ca 1836.[314]
Hanna's "Ohio Valley Genealogies," p. 47, states that Phebe Dickson, daughter of James Dickson & Margaret Gaston, married Uriah Church and had a son Andrew who married Ruth Hall, and they in turn had a daughter Clara who married Horace White and was the mother of Andrew Dickson White. The implication is that Clara's and her father's surname was Church. But that is contradicted by biographical accounts of Andrew Dickson White, which identify his grandfather as Andrew Dickson and his mother as Clara Dickson. Given our limited knowledge of the circumstances, we invite a better informed reader to confirm or refute our speculation that Andrew Dickson was born prior to his mother's marriage to Uriah Church.
In "The Autobiography of Andrew Dickson White," the author states that his mother's "father prospered as a man of business, was known as 'Colonel,' and also as 'Squire' Dickson, and represented his county in the State legislature. He died when I was about three years old, and I vaguely remember being brought to him as he lay upon his death-bed. On one account, above all others, I have long looked back to him with pride. For the first public care of the early settlers had been a church, and the second a school. This school had been speedily developed into Cortland Academy, which soon became famous throughout all that region, and, as a boy of five or six years of age, I was very proud to read on the cornerstone of the Academy building my grandfather's name among those of the original founders. ... I was born into a politically divided family. My grandfather, on my mother's side, whose name I was destined to bear, was an ardent Democrat; had, as such, represented his district in the State legislature, and other public bodies; took his political creed from Thomas Jefferson, and adored Andrew Jackson. My father, on the other hand, was in all his antecedents and his personal convictions, a devoted Whig, taking his creed from Alexander Hamilton, and worshiping Henry Clay."[315],[316]
He married28 Ruth Hall, b. ca 1790 in Connecticut,204 census 1850, 1860 in Syracuse, Onondaga Co, NY [In household with daughter & son-in-law Clara & Horace Church and their family. In 1850, listed as Ruth Dickison, 60, b. NY. In 1860, listed as Ruth Dickson, 70, b. Connecticut. The latter entry would appear more credible.].

190. William Gaston (94.Alexander5, 33.John4, 9.John3, 3.John2, 1.Jean1), b. Oct- 3-1820 in Killingly, Windham Co, CT,11,35 d. Jan-19-1894 in Boston, MA,27,35 resided until 1838 in Killingly, Windham Co, CT,11 resided starting 1838 in Roxbury, Suffolk Co, MA,11 occupation Governor of Massachusetts.[317],35
Served as a member of the Massachusetts Legislature, as Mayor of Boston from 1871-72, and 1875-76 as Governor of Massachusetts. He also had a private law practice in which his son William Alexander Gaston became a partner. ["The Gaston Genealogy," p. 40] Earned a B.A. & M.A. from Brown University in 1840 and 1843, and a law degree from Brown & Harvard in 1875. [American Ancestry, Vol V, p. 103] "William Gaston had established a successful legal practice in the City of Roxbury before entering politics. He served as a Representative in the State Legislature (1853-1854), as Roxbury's City Solicitor (1856-60), and as its Mayor (1861 and 1862). He resumed his private practice of law until 1868, when he served the Massachusetts Senate for a year. The City of Boston annexed Roxbury in 1868, and in 1871, Gaston was voted Mayor of Boston. Running for Governor as a Democrat, Gaston defeated incumbent Thomas Talbot who had supported the continuance of statewide prohibition by his veto. Gaston promoted a law repealing the Commonwealth's prohibition law, leaving such restrictions to the determination of localities. Governor Gaston was defeated in his reelection bid by Alexander Rice. Mr. Gaston returned to his extremely successful legal practice, gaining renown as a trial attorney."

George Belcher Gaston founded the town of Tabor, Iowa in 1852 and Tabor College. He was "first identified as a young farmer with a missionary spirit. He lived near Oberlin, Ohio. So intense became his mission zeal that he obtained a commission under the American Board of Missions to work among the Pawnee Indians in a territory that later became Nance County in Nebraska. He worked among the Pawnees four years.... When his wife was taken ill, they returned to Ohio, and he became more closely acquainted with Oberlin's history. He conceived the plan of developing a similar community with its colony patterned after Oberlin College. His idea led to its reality...." Enlisting the aid of Deacon Samuel H. Adams and Rev. John Todd (who left a ministry in Clarksfield, Ohio), they and their families took out claims for the town in April 1852. The terrain led them to name the town "Tabor," after the Biblical name of Mount Tabor, a mountain near Nazareth. George B. Gaston's plan for a college was soon put into motion, and Tabor College's first incarnation, Tabor Literary Institute, opened on Nov 3 1857.
Meanwhile, the area had come to the attention of John Brown, the famous abolitionist. Born in Connecticut in 1800, Brown moved to New York in 1849 to promote his abolitionist ideas. In 1857, he moved to Kansas, where five of his sons had moved the year before. Continuing his abolitionist mission, Brown became involved in kidnapping and smuggling slaves across the border into Nebraska and Iowa. "With his 'underground railroad' functioning, Brown left Kansas. Brown became aware that the settlers of Tabor were sympathetic to his cause. He also viewed Tabor's location as close-by to set up a station from which smuggled slaves could be relayed to Canada.... John Brown, often accompanied by his four sons, frequently came to Tabor. There were some occasions in which he would remain in town weeks at a time." The home of George B. Gaston was among those in Tabor where John Brown was entertained and that Brown and his associates used for slave hideaways.
When George's sister Emala and her husband Julius Hume died at early ages, George and his wife Maria took in Emala's young son Loren and raised him as their son.
In July 1925, George B. Gaston's son Alexander Cummings Gaston wrote a 3-1/2 page typewritten manuscript entitled "An Account of the Journey of the G. B. Gaston Family from Ohio to Southwestern Iowa, and Something of their Life in Civil Bend and Tabor in the Early Days." A short addendum was subsequently provided by Alexander's daughter Cora Gaston Rice, based on stories of those times related to her by her father.

James McFadden Gaston (1824-1903) was a Confederate surgeon and physician from South Carolina. He organized medical services while serving as Chief Surgeon of South Carolina Forces and later as Divisional Surgeon General of the South Carolina Volunteers during campaigns in Virginia and Pennsylvania, which included the battles of Manassas, Gettysburg and Chickamauga. His brothers were killed at the Battle of Seven Pines. Immediately after the conclusion of the Civil War in 1865, Gaston left the United States and settled his family in Brazil where he practiced medicine in the city of Campinas. After almost two decades, in 1883, Gaston returned with some of his family to Atlanta, Ga., where he successfully re-entered American medical life, teaching at the Southern Medical College, publishing articles, and carrying out research.339

Watters: The family of Watters Smith Jr. lived on the farm later owned by Albert McWhorter (kin) in 1971 on Duck Creek near the "new" school house. He was a Confederate sympathizer, although this is disputed by some family members. As Union soldiers arresting him took him away from home, he pulled a silver dollar from his pocket and threw it to his son Edward, who vowed to hold it till his father's safe return. As a prisoner, he was sent to Camp Chase, near Columbus, OH, where he became ill with dysentery. Union neighbors signed a petition for his wife and helped her to get to the camp, where she nursed him back to health. When she was able to bring him home, he weighed only 75 pounds. The silver dollar, dated 1799, has been passed down through the years and remains in the family.159

vii. HANNAH E. GASTON b. Jun-24-1859 in Doddridge Co, WV,[403] d. Jul- 6-1859 in Doddridge Co, WV.[404]
Doddridge County records reflect that Hannah's older sister Sarah died on July 6 1859, at age 12 days, but also that Sarah married in 1865 at age 19. Hannah's birth record shows that she was born on June 24 1859, exactly 12 days before the July 6th date. Also, Sarah was listed in the family of their father Daniel H. Gaston in the 1850 and 1860 Census, but Hannah was never listed in any census. No subsequent record of Hannah has been found. It is clear, then, that it was Hannah who died on July 6th at age 12 days, and the entry of her sister's name was a clerical error.

252. Eli Morris Gaston (138.Hugh6, 72.John5, 21.John4, 6.Hugh3, 3.John2, 1.Jean1), b. Aug- 3-1822 in Harrison Co, (W)VA,247 d. Jan-27-1909 in Doddridge Co, WV,372 [A newspaper memoriam in the West Union Record of Feb 12 1909 indicated his death date as Jan 28 1909, also reported by family members. But Doddridge County death records indicate Jan 27 1909.], buried in Gaston Family Cemetery, Upper Run, Summers, Doddridge Co WV, census 1870, 1880, 1900 in Southwest District, Doddridge Co, WV, census 1850, 1860 in Doddridge Co, (W)VA, occupation minister and farmer.
The Methodist Protestant Church was introduced into Doddridge County, WV by Eli Morris Gaston and his brother Daniel. These two young men came onto the headwaters of Hughes River in 1843 and purchased several thousand acres of wooded land where they established homes. Eli and his wife Rulina set up housekeeping in a one-room log cabin on Gaston Run in December 1846. Later they constructed a two-story log home where they spent their entire married lives. This house burned down in 1910. Property consisting of 214 acres on Middle Fork of Hughes River, 11 miled southeast of the court house, was formally conveyed to Eli by his brother Daniel in 1847.
In 1846 the Gaston brothers succeeded in having a Methodist Protestant minister come into the new settlement and preach at Eli's home. Arrangements were made for regular services, and the people built a log house for school and church services. The new house was named Harmony because of the fine spirit of harmony and cooperation among the people composing the new settlement. In 1866 the old log house was replaced by a neat frame building which served the congregation until 1901, when a large modern house of worship was built. The Reverend Mortimer Ireland (b. 8/8/1835) was pastor at that time. Charter members included Eli Morris Gaston and Daniel Gaston and their wives, J. E. Strother and his wife, John Hart and wife, S. M. Gaston and wife, and Samuel Richards. Others who joined later included R. Husk and wife, Isaac Hileman and wife, John I. Gaston and wife, T. W. Chapman and wife, J. S. Britton and wife, and George Pierce and wife. This was considered to be the best congregation of its denomination in Doddridge County.[405]
He married Rulina A. Lowther, also known as Rulina Louthers,[406] also known as Pauline Lowther,[407] Nov-29-1846 in Doddridge Co, (W)VA,[408],[409],196 b. Aug-12-1825 in Harrison Co, (W)VA,247 [Family members give birth date as Aug 12 1826. But Doddridge County Death Records give age at death on Sep 30 1911 at 86y 1m 18d, putting birth at Aug 12 1825. Also, 1900 Census states her age as 74 and her birth date as Aug 1825. The 1860 Census shows her age as 35, while the 1870 Census has it as 44.], d. Sep-30-1911 in Oxford, Doddridge Co, WV,[410],372,247 buried in Gaston Family Cemetery, Upper Run, Summers, Doddridge Co WV, census 1870, 80, 1900, 10 in Southwest District, Doddridge Co, WV [In 1910, identified as Rulina A, mother, in household of her son Jesse Smith Gaston and his family.], census 1850, 1860 in Doddridge Co, (W)VA.
Rulina: No information regarding the parents of Rulina Lowther has been found. A copy of her obituary was located, but although it specified her birth as Aug 12 1825 in Harrison County, it made no mention of parents or siblings. Harrison County in 1825 encompassed a much larger area than it does now, so her birthplace may actually have been in present-day Doddridge County, which was created in 1845 from parts of Harrison, Tyler, Ritchie and Lewis Counties. A reference in one printing of her obituary to her and husband Eli having "20 children" was clearly a typographical error intended to be "10," as another printing stated that they had "ten children."
It was once thought that her actual first name was Pauline, but that is now considered doubtful and was probably the result of a clerical error. The original handwritten death record for her son John Morris Gaston, on file at the WV State Archives, identifies his mother as Rulina Lowther, while the corresponding typed death record for him on file in Harrison County identifies her as Pauline Lowther. Since this was the only time that the name "Pauline" has been noted in original records, it was presumably a misreading by the typist of "Rulina" on the original handwritten document. Similarly, the obituary of her son Eli Clark Gaston identified her as Rebecca Lowther, the only time that that name has been noted and is presumably a misprint intended to be Rulina. With these two exceptions, all other references to her are as Rulina (misspelled Relina in her handwritten marriage record). The only reference we have found of her middle initial was in the 1910 Census, which clearly identified her as Rulina A.
Family information sheets completed by her son David Dow Gaston and grandson Ira Dow Gaston identified her as Rulina Lowther, born Aug 12 1825 in Harrison Co, died Sep 30 1911. The space for the names of her parents was left blank on the form filled out by David, while Ira's stated that she was the daughter of "Unknown."
The only photograph we have of Rulina Lowther was found among other family photographs. Three of her grandchildren and one niece were named Rulina.

Jun- 7-1852 in Lewis Co, WV,411 [Age 96y 5m 28d, stated in death record and on headstone, would put birth date at Jun 4 1852. But death certificate specifies birth date as Jun 7 1852. His death certificate also identifies his mother not as his father's second wife Elizabeth, but as Amanda Washburn, Elizabeth's daughter from a previous marriage to Isaac Washburn. This is consistent with the ages of Elizabeth (51) and Amanda (27) at the time of Marion's birth. Amanda never married, so she presumably remained in the Gaston home. The relationships projected to the public are not known, but since Marion's surname was Gaston, it is assumed that he was raised as the son of Hugh and Elizabeth, with his actual biological mother appearing to others as his stepsister. Stated another way, the Elizabeth Washburn who married Hugh Gaston was born Elizabeth King, she was the widow of Isaac Washburn by whom she had a daughter Amanda, and Marion Gaston, though legally and to all appearances the son of Hugh and Elizabeth, was biologically the son of Hugh and Amanda. Informant for Amanda's death record was listed as her son, not identified by name. Amanda shares a common headstone with her mother Elizabeth and stepfather Hugh.], d.

This, however, conflicts with the May 1827 birth date of a sibling. Age 51 in 1880 Census would also put birth in about 1829.], d.

Martin: In 1834, Martin Sommerville's father, Robert, was the first settler at Bone Creek, near Auburn in Ritchie County. The creek took its name from a bone lick there. Robert's father, James Simmeral, as the name was originally until corrupted through some errors, came from Cork, Ireland, via Delaware and Maryland to Harrison County, Virginia, where Robert was born on May 1, 1800.513
Martin and Susan Gaston Sommerville "made their pioneer settlement on the Town Hall Farm below Auburn, and after a brief stay there, they removed to Otterslide, where they lived and died on the farm that fell heir to their son, Robert C. Sommerville, and his heirs."
"Ritchie County in History and Romance," p. 309, reports that Martin and Susan had a daughter Elizabeth, who married a Netz (probably intended to be Nitz). But Elizabeth does not appear in any census, and no other record of her has been found.

The 3038-acre Beaver Creek State Park is located at 12021 Echo Dell Road in East Liverpool, OH. The park area was established in 1945 with a gross average of a possible 20,000 acres. The nucleus of this park is Gaston's Mill, a 19th century grist mill. Thomas Whitacre built the mill in about 1837. The next owner was Philander Gaston who operated it longer than any other owner, hence the name. It operates on waterpower, is built almost entirely of wood and utilizes authentic mill stones. On weekends during the summer it grinds corn meal, whole wheat and buckwheat flour, which may be purchased at the mill. Gaston's Mill and the adjacent pioneer village especially come to life during the annual Pioneer Craft Days event held the first weekend in October. http://www.bchistory.org/beavercounty/BeaverCountyTopical/parks/StateParks/StateParksMSU90.html

1850 Census, Bedminster Twp, Somerset Co, New Jersey, enumerated on Aug 27 1850:

(Note: The birth dates of John Blackwell and his sister Sarah have been widely reported as Sep 9 1839 and Apr 26 1841, respectively. In the case of Sarah, that was based on her age inscribed on her headstone. But the 1850 Census contradicts this, showing that Sarah was the older of the two. A closer examination of Sarah's headstone shows a death date of Feb 4 1853, with age indicated as 14 years, 9 months. Days are not specified. If number of days is zero, the birth date would be May 4 1838.)
Dr. Thomas Blackwell first practiced medicine at Kingston, New Jersey, then moved to his father's farm near Burnt Mills, where he retired and lived out his life.

From "The Autobiography of Andrew Dickson White":
"Hither came, toward the close of the eighteenth century, a body of sturdy New Englanders, and, among them, my grandfathers and grandmothers. Those on my father's side: Asa White and Clara Keep, from Munson, Massachusetts; those on my mother's side, Andrew Dickson, from Middlefield, Massachusetts, and Ruth Hall from Guilford, Connecticut. They were all of ``good stock.'' When I was ten years old I saw my great-grandfather at Middlefield, eighty-two years of age, sturdy and vigorous; he had mowed a broad field the day before, and he walked four miles to church the day after. He had done his duty manfully during the war, had been a member of the ``Great and General Court'' of Massachusetts, and had held various other offices, which showed that he enjoyed the confidence of his fellow-citizens. As to the other side of the house, there was a tradition that we came from Peregrine White of the Mayflower; but I have never had time to find whether my doubts on the subject were well founded or not. Enough for me to know that my yeomen ancestors did their duty in war and peace, were honest, straightforward, God-fearing men and women, who owned their own lands, and never knew what it was to cringe before any human being."

He studied law at Harvard Law School and his father’s firm, and later organized his own Boston firm of Gaston, Snow and Saltonstall, from which he practiced corporation law and the management of estates. His success as a corporate lawyer led to his selection as coordinator for the consolidation of the city’s various street railway companies into the Boston Elevated Railway Company. In the banking industry, Mr. Gaston was a leading and influential participant in overseeing several financial institutions as well as organizing the National Shawmut Bank of Boston, of which he was president for a number of years before becoming chairman of its board of directors. Following World War I, he was appointed by the U.S. Government as an arbitrator of labor disputes in Hartford, CT, and Bath, ME. Colonel Gaston was a prominent Massachusetts Democrat, serving on the staff of Governor William Eustis Russell where he attained his title, and ran unsuccessfully for the Massachusetts Governorship. Outside his public life, he maintained a famous herd of cows on his Barre farm where he researched problems related to raising livestock and standardizing food production. In addition to his Library trusteeship, he was a member of the Overseers of Harvard University, of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society and of Trinity Church. Colonel Gaston supported many other organizations and causes associated with education and charity with both his time and money."

From his obituary:
While he was still an infant Mr. Gaston's father removed from Oberlin to the Pawnee Reserve, in what was then known as Indian Territory, now the state of Nebraska, taking employment under the Government as Indian Farmer, but soon abandoned that to follow the work of a missionary among the Pawnees under the American Board. When Mr. Gaston was about six years of age a war between the Pawnees and Sioux compelled the return of the family to Oberlin. In 1848 the family returned to the new state of Iowa, bringing with them a small colony which first settled at Gaston Post Office, derisively called Civil War Bend, near the present site of Percival. As they suffered from three successive floods of the Missouri river, it was decided to seek "higher ground" and removal was made to the present location of Tabor, where George B. Gaston's ambition to found a college patterned after Oberlin College, which purpose had brought him to the state, was afterwards realized.
Mr. A. C. Gaston came to manhood during the strenuous days of anti-slavery agitation, was active in the conduct of the underground railroad and intimately acquainted with John Brown, who spent many months in Tabor. For some ten years after his marriage he lived on a farm a mile south of Tabor, but upon the death of his father in 1873 he moved to that home in town where he resided until about twenty-one years ago, when he removed to Hanford, California. He was one of the first members at the Congregational Church of Tabor, and always active in its work and the interests of the college, and was one of the most influential citizens of the community. He found many new friends in his new home he was highly esteemed and honored. He was of a somewhat retiring disposition, always patient, always cheery, sustained by deep religious faith which was always manifested in his life, and his influence and efforts were always in behalf of truth and justice. "His children rise up and call him blessed."
In July 1925, Alexander Cummings Gaston wrote a 3-1/2 page typewritten manuscript about his father, entitled "An Account of the Journey of the G. B. Gaston Family from Ohio to Southwestern Iowa, and Something of their Life in Civil Bend and Tabor in the Early Days." A short addendum was subsequently provided by Alexander's daughter Cora Gaston Rice, based on stories of those times related to her by her father.

Marvin Jones, congressman and judge, was born at Valley View, Cooke County, Texas, on February 26, 1882. He attended Elm Grove School in the same county and a public school in Miami, Texas, before graduating from Southwestern University with a B.A. in 1905 and from the University of Texas with an LL.B. in 1908. He then practiced law in Amarillo with Leonidas Barrett and Ernest Miller until defeating John Hall Stephens in the election of 1916 for a U.S. congressional seat. He represented the 13th District as a Democrat. As a protégé of John Nance Garner and close friend of Samuel T. Rayburn and Hatton W. Sumners, Jones became a member of the House Agriculture Committee in 1921. There he crusaded unsuccessfully for the export debenture plan. He became chairman in 1930 and remained in that post until he resigned ten years later to become an associate justice of the United States Court of Claims. In agricultural legislation Jones generally specialized in farm finance that cut across commodity interests. He wanted low-interest loans and mortgages, soil conservation, farm subsidies, agricultural research, and new markets for farm products. As a result he helped found the Farm Credit Administration and the Federal Farm Mortgage Corporation. Additionally, he played important roles in the Jones-Connally Act; the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act; Section 32 of the Agricultural Adjustments Act of 1935, the first guaranteed annual appropriation for agriculture in United States history; the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenancy Act; and the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938. During the Great Depression, Jones ardently supported the construction of public buildings and urged the location of federal agencies in Amarillo. As a practical politician he supervised the passage of more significant agricultural legislation than any previous House agriculture chairman.
After 1940 Jones served on the United States Court of Claims. He took a leave of absence from June 29, 1943, to June 30, 1945, and during those two years he brought stability to the strife-torn War Food Administration by leadership that was principled and centered on public service rather than bureaucratic. He championed increased production of food and fibers, and the WFA, aided by favorable weather, was reasonably successful in meeting its production goals during World War II. He returned to the court, became chief judge in 1947, and served until 1964. In his opinions he refrained from judicial activism and tried to balance law, congressional intent, and his own concept of quality, which was deeply rooted in his Texas heritage. As a judicial administrator he helped reestablish the Court of Claims as a constitutional court and supervised the construction of a new courthouse. From 1964 until his death he served as senior judge. Jones was a devout Methodist who contributed generously to religious causes and provided scholarships at many Texas universities. He died in Amarillo on March 4, 1976.

Aug- 9-1932 in Oxford, Doddridge Co, WV,[776],179,370 buried in Oxford Baptist Church Cemetery, Doddridge Co, WV,17 census 1850 in Doddridge Co, (W)VA.
Identified in her marriage record as Mary A. Gaston and in her obituary as Mary A. Haught, daughter of John H. Gaston and Jane Pritchard Gaston. Basis for middle initial "A" is not known, as her middle name has been determined to be Martha and her headstone clearly identifies her as Mary M. Conversely, the obituary of her son Marvel L. Haught identifies her as Mary Ellen Gaston, and she appears in the 1850 Census as Mary E. Gaston, age 6 months.
Her own obituary reads in part: "Mrs. Haught was born and reared and spent her entire long and useful life on the same farm in South West District. She was well known to many of the citizens of Doddridge County and was loved and revered by all who knew her; she was always kind and generous to the poor and was always attentive and helpful to the citizens of her community in times of sickness and distress. She lived a useful life, retaining her memory and optimism of life until a few days before she was called. When her life's work was finished, she fell asleep, assuring her relatives and friends that she was prepared to the change and that all was well with her."

Much confusion has existed over the years concerning the spelling of his name and that of his father, but his father was Marville (despite being listed as Marvel in his wife's obituary), and he named his son Marvel. Nonetheless, both spellings are often seen for both men, even in official records. Headstone gives name as Marvel L. Haught, and the Social Security Death Index identifies him as Marvel Haught.

Harvey served in the Civil War Aug 1862 to Jun 1865 as a Private in Co A, 14th W.Va. Volunteer Infantry Regiment. On May 9 1864, while aiding his wounded cousin Thomas J. Fleming, Harvey Smith was captured at Cloyds Mountain, Virginia. He was imprisoned at Andersonville, Georgia for 6 months 20 days until paroled on Nov 25 1864. He was subsequently hospitalized at Mower U.S. Army Hospital in Chestnut Hill (Philadelphia), Pennsylvania, for the remainder of his enlistment. Suffering from "disease of the eyes" according to the 1890 Veterans Survey, he filed for an invalid's pension on Aug 31 1865.

Freeman Goff Squires was a son of Virgil B. Squires (a stone mason) and Elizabeth Laverna Gaston. The eighth of their ten children, he had five brothers and four sisters. He was sometimes known by his middle name Goff.
At the time of the 1910 Census, he was a glass worker. When he registered for the military draft in June 1917, he was working as a chauffeur. One of the questions on the draft registration form was "Do you claim exemption from draft (specify grounds)?" His answer was "Father & Mother to support."
He was drafted into the Army, rank Private, unit Co D, 310th Rep Shop Unit, Motor Trans Corps. His obituary states that he died shortly after arriving in Europe with the American Expeditionary Force. "On the voyage across he contracted influenza and pneumonia, and he was immediately taken to a hospital on landing, where he died after a brief illness."
In November 1929, his mother appeared in a War Department list of mothers and widows of deceased soldiers killed in World War I. The U.S. Government offered such women the opportunity to travel to their loved one's final resting place in Europe, a program which came to be known as the World War I Mothers Pilgrimage. Such all-expense paid trips were offered in the years 1930 through 1933. Listed as Mrs. Eliza L. Squires of Industrial, West Virginia, Freeman's mother apparently declined to make the trip to France in 1930 and further indicated that she did not wish to participate at a later date.

The boy went by the name Jack Gaston until his late teens, when he changed his name and ran away. The boy died sometime between 1974 and 1978, with the funeral held in Salem, WV. Some family members speculate that the boy was born to the unmarried sister of his foster mother Hazel May Yeater.

In the fall of 1941, Frances Irene Gaston Fontenot traveled to San Diego, California to join her husband who was assigned to the USS Blue Destroyer, based at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. It was long believed that both of them died when Pearl Harbor was attacked on Dec 7 1941, as they were never found or heard from after that. The obituary of her father, Eli Clark Gaston, in Nov 1941, identified her among his surviving children as "Mrs. Irene Fontnot [sic] of California." The obituary of her half-sister, Bess Mae Gaston Adams, in 1981, listed among her survivors "a half sister, Irene, address unknown." But more recently, a listing of all Pearl Harbor casualties revealed no one named Fontenot or anything similar. More significantly, a listing was found in the Social Security Death Index for Frances Fontenot, born Sep 15 1908, died March 1987, last residence at Mamou, Evangeline County (Parish), Louisiana, Social Security card issued in California in 1952.
She married ___ Fontenot, military U.S. Navy.

According to their grandson, Samuel Hileman, Lucy's name was placed on the double headstone, despite the different burial location, simply to identify her as Jesse Smith Gaston's wife.

Minnie Kendall Lowther, apparently incorrectly, states on p. 316 that Anna V. Ward, a daughter of Martin Carr Ward and Mary Jane Gaston, was born on Dec 2 1845 and that she married M. B. Zinn of Holbrook on July 27 1865. M. B. Zinn was a son of Quilla Manley Zinn and Lucy Ann Wilson. But Ritchie County marriage records show that on that date, July 27 1865, Ann M. Ward, age 20, daughter of Martin C. & Mary J. Ward, married William B. Zinn, age 23, born in Lewis Co, son of John W. & Eliza Zinn. Furthermore, a headstone for Luetta Zinn at the Oxford Baptist Church Cemetery identifies her as the daughter of W. B. & A. M. Zinn. But Ritchie County death records show that Anna Ward Zinn, dau of Martin and Betty Gaston Ward, died on Feb 27 1934 at age 88y2m25d.
She married William Buckner Zinn,[996] also known as Buckner Zinn,496 also known as W. B. Zinn,17 Jul-27-1865 in Ritchie Co, WV,[997] b.

Aug-29-1924 in Ritchie Co, WV,996 buried in South Fork Baptist Church Cemetery, Oxford, Doddridge Co, WV.[998]
William: A grand-nephew, Larry Bartlett, tells this story: "During the Civil War, Buckner had served in Company E of the Sixth West Virginia Regiment. Dad remembered him as a frisky old gentleman who was bearded like a prophet. Buckner was a self-taught dentist and inventor, and he was the first farmer in Ritchie County to have electric lights. He built a water-powered generator on the Hughes River, and offered electrical shocks as a treatment for arthritis. He was also a skilled woodcarver, and he created intricate toys that were powered by a water wheel. Two of Buckner Zinn's sons went west to Wyoming in the early 1900's. One of the boys was an oilman, and the other worked as a big game hunter and guide."496

A grand-nephew, Larry Bartlett, tells this story: "Dad's aunts and uncles often visited the farm, bringing the latest gossip to Shady Lane. A favorite visitor was his colorful uncle, Ledrue Ward. During the oil boom years, Ledrue made good money as a derrick contractor. He raced around Ritchie County in a Stutz Bearcat, indulging a taste for liquor and shouting his strange oath: 'Son of a gun to Peeroo!' When I was a boy in the 1940's, I was taken to see Ledrue on his deathbed. He gave me a fistful of coins to buy ice cream and candy, saying: 'Son of a gun to Peeroo, boys need to have fun.' Those words seemed to summarize his high-spirited life."496

In 1867, before his marriage to Elizabeth Gaston, Josiah Porter Nutter bought some ground on Stone Lick at the mouth of Horn Creek in Gilmer County, settled on it, and built a log cabin. After his marriage and after his children were born, Josiah built a large addition attached to the original log cabin to make a large two story family home. This home was occupied continuously by Josiah and his descendants from 1867 until Dec 26 2011, when grandson Lane Bush Nutter died in the home. Both Josiah and Elizabeth also died in that home, and all of their children were born there. The exact location of the house is on Stone Lick at the mouth of Horn Creek, in Gilmer County. It is located within Gilmer County, but extremely close to both the Ritchie County line and the Doddridge County line, leading to much confusion. The current postal mailing address is 322 East Stone Lick Drive, Coxs Mills, WV, but the same house previously had an Auburn mailing address.

(Note: Elsie's marital status as widowed is incorrect and should have been either separated or divorced. Husband William, who died in 1946, was not found in this census. The enumerator also erred by entering son George's middle name as his surname, carrying the error over to his sister Helen. George's marital status is also misleading, since he had married in 1928 and was divorced by the time of his 1934 remarriage.)

Attorney and author Walter Gaston Shotwell was born in 1856 in Cadiz, Harrison County, Ohio. He received his bachelor of arts from Yale University in 1878. He returned to Cadiz to study law with his father and Chauncey Dewey. In 1880, Shotwell was admitted to the bar and received his master of arts degree from Franklin College.
Shotwell privately practiced law from 1880 to 1887. In 1887, he was elected prosecuting attorney for Harrison County, Ohio. He served two terms in this office before returning to private practice in 1893. Shotwell sought elected office again when he ran for Common Pleas judge for the Eighth District of Ohio in 1899. He served three terms and retired from the bench in 1913 to pursue his writing career.
Shotwell was exposed to abolitionist sentiments by his parents and professors at Franklin College. As an attorney, he willingly served African-American clients and became known as a "friend to colored people." This background inspired his first book, "The Life and times of Charles Sumner" (1910). His second book, "The Civil War in America" (1923), was notably pro-Union. Shotwell's third published work, "Driftwood: Being Papers on Old-Time American Towns and Some Old People" (1927), is a collection of essays. A fourth work, a biography of writer Washington Irving, was pending publication when Shotwell was killed in a car accident on March 11, 1938.

Our efforts to identify the parents of Bazil Rowe were made difficult by the various spellings of his name, both first and last. Based strictly on census records, starting with 1900 and working backward, we found the following:
In 1900, Bazil was with wife Nancy and one child.
1900 Census, Columbiana Co, OH (Town of East Palestine), enumerated on Jun 6 1900 at Clark Street:
Basil Raugh, 65, b. Jul 1834 in Ohio (father b. Pennsylvania, mother b. Ohio), occupation presser in pottery, married 25 yrs; wife Nancy, 46, b. Apr 1854 in Indiana (both parents b. Ohio), married 25 yrs, mother of 4 children (all still living); son Charles A, 16, b. Mar 1884 in Ohio, occupation stable hand.
In 1880, he was with wife Nancy and their children.
1880 Census, Columbiana Co, OH (Middleton Twp), enumerated in June 1880:
Bazzem Rowe, 48, b. Ohio (both parents born in Virginia), occupation sawyer; wife Nancy, 26, b. Indiana (both parents b. Ohio); dau Laura G, 7, b. Ohio; dau Mary, 4, b. Ohio; son Walter, 6 months, b. Ohio; boarder John Macauley, 48, b. Ohio, married, occupation miller.
(Note: The next household was that of Nancy's parents and siblings.)
In 1870, we couldn't find Bazil, but we did find someone else who would prove to be relevant.
1870 Census, Columbiana Co, OH (Liverpool Twp, Wellsville post office), enumerated on Jun 1 1870:
Pleasey Rough, 79, b. Virginia; David H. Russell, 27, b. Virginia, laborer; Amanda Russell, 20, b. Ohio.
In 1860, he was with his first wife, Elizabeth, and their children.
1860 Census, Columbiana Co, OH (Liverpool Twp, East Liverpool post office), enumerated on Jun 7 1860:
Bazel Rough, 25, b. Ohio, occupation (blank), value of real estate (blank), value of personal estate $30; Elizabeth, 26, b. Ohio; Enma, 7, b. Ohio; Therrssa, 4, b. Ohio; Darrah, 4, b. Ohio
In 1850, he was with his parents:
1850, Columbiana County (Liverpool Twp), enumerated on Jul 11 1850:
John Raugh, 73, b. Pennsylvania, farmer, value of real estate $2,000; Placey, 57, b. Virginia; Bazaleel, 18, b. Ohio, boatman; Philip, 20, b. Ohio, boatman; Matilda McCullough, 35, b. Ohio; Amanda McCullough, 6 months, b. Ohio.
So Bazil Rowe's original name was apparently Bazaleel Raugh, which varies slightly from the Biblical name Bezaleel.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bezalel
Although relationships are not stated in the 1850 Census, it appears evident that John Raugh (or Rough) and Pleasey are Bazil's parents. The ages fit, and their birthplaces more or less match those given by Bazil in 1880 and 1900. Birthplaces in census records can be very helpful, but also are not always completely accurate. In this case, the 1850 Census (in which the information was provided by the individuals themselves) clarifies the minor discrepancies of the 1880 and 1900 censuses. So John Raugh was definitely born in Pennsylvania. And Pleasey was born in Virginia, which may actually be present-day West Virginia, which was still Virginia until 1863.

Although she was married to Peter Dumont, Naomi Gaston's three children are listed in Max Perry's Gaston Genealogy with the surname Gaston, and her two sons' children continued to carry the Gaston name.

A graduate of Yale University, Andrew D. White excelled academically, was renowned for his writing and oratory skills, and competed in the first running of the Harvard-Yale Regatta in 1852. He traveled extensively in Europe following graduation, and in October 1858 accepted a position as a Professor of History and English literature at the University of Michigan, where he remained on faculty until 1863. He then returned to his Syracuse home, was elected to the New York State Senate, and became acquainted with fellow senator Ezra Cornell. Together, in 1865 they founded Cornell University in Ithaca, with Andrew White serving as its first president (1866-1885), as well as a professor of history. His later accomplishments included serving in numerous noted positions: U.S. Ambassador to Germany (1879-1881), first president of the American Historical Association (1884-1885), Ambassador to Russia (1892-1894), president of the American delegation to The Hague Peace Conference (1899), and again as Ambassador to Germany (1897-1902).

Helen: A social scientist and educator, she holds the distinction of being the first female Ph.D. recipient in the United States, which she earned from Boston University in 1877. Her father was the second president of Swarthmore College.1296
Helen Magill White (b. November 28, 1853, Providence, Rhode Island — d. October 28, 1944, Kittery Point, Maine) was the first woman to earn a Ph.D. in the United States.
Raised in a Quaker family, White always believed that she was deserving of the same education as a man. In 1859, the family moved to Boston, where Helen signed up as the only female student in the Boston Public Latin School, where her father was submaster.[1] Her father was the president of Swarthmore College, which she attended as an undergraduate in 1873. She was a member of the first class to graduate from the university. She continued studies in the classics at Swarthmore and Boston University, where she earned her Ph.D in 1877. After that, up until 1881, she studied at the University of Cambridge, in England, placing third in her tripos (honors examinations) at Newnham College. [2]
After being the principal for a year at a private school in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, she was selected in 1883 to organize Howard Collegiate Institute, in West Bridgewater, Massachusetts. She was the director of Howard until 1887, when she resigned. She taught for a short amount of time at Evelyn College, a women's annex to Princeton University. She then suffered an illness for the next few years, while she taught at a high school.
Helen met Andrew D. White, the retired president of Cornell University, while presenting a paper at the American Social Science Association in 1887, and married him in September 1890. White was also a college classmate of Magill's father, Edward Hicks Magill. She accompanied her husband to his diplomatic posts in St. Petersburg (1892-94) and Berlin (1897-1903). She didn’t participate in public or educational affairs after that, except to oppose women's suffrage publicly in 1913. After White died in 1918, she lived abroad and in Ithaca, New York, and then retired to Kittery Point, Maine, where she died in 1944.[3]

Identified in obituaries of E. Wilson Osborne and W. Frank Osborne as Mrs. Freda Haught of Akron, a surviving sister. But she was identified in obituary of Frank's sister Rella Osborne Snider as Mrs. Harry (Freda) Haught of Akron, a surviving foster sister, and she was identified in obituary of Annetta "Nettie" Cole Osburn as Mrs. Harry (Freda) Haught of Akron, a surviving foster daughter. It would thus appear that Freda, whose mother died in 1919 when Freda was just 4, was raised in the family of Jacob M. and Annetta "Nettie" Cole Osburn. She was listed in their household as a lodger in the 1920 Census. Relationship between the Davis/Britton and Osborne/Cole families, if any, is not known.

In the wake of her mother's death shortly after giving birth, Lenora Squires Gaston was raised from infancy by Morris Samuel Gaston and his wife Hattie I. Adams Gaston, and she therefore adopted the Gaston family name. Morris Samuel Gaston was a first cousin of baby Lenora's maternal grandmother, Mary Isabelle Gaston Adams, and a second cousin of her paternal grandmother, Elizabeth Laverna Gaston Squires. There is speculation that Hattie Adams was also a blood relative. The obituary of Morris Samuel Gaston identified as a surviving "foster daughter, Mrs. Cyril Scott of Oxford." Lenora took up residence in Weirton, WV. Her mother's obituary identifies her as Lenore [sic] Scott, her husband's obituary identifies her as Lenore [sic] Squires Gaston Scott, and the Social Security Death Index lists her name as Lenore [sic] Scott.

According to his obituary, Samuel Jackson Squires formerly operated a farm in Doddridge County, later working in the oil and gas fields. He also served as a car salesman, and for many years was well-known as an auctioneer. His obituary made no mention of his endeavor as a hotel manager, which is known only from the 1930 Census and the following front-page article in the "West Union Herald" of Thursday, Aug 9 1928:
COLUMBIA HOTEL UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT
S. J. Squires, one of South West District's most energetic and successful young farmers, having leased the Columbia Hotel property, took charge last week.
Under the new management, a first class dining room has been opened up, and on last Sunday one of the finest chicken dinners obtainable anywhere in the state was served.
West Union has long needed a real hotel for the accommodation of the traveling public; and knowing Mr. & Mrs. Squires, as we have for some years, we predict this is a case of the right folks in the right place.
In the same issue of the newspaper was an advertisement placed by S. J. Squires for an auction of his farm animals, stating that the reason for the sale was that he had moved away from his farm. The advertisement was placed by "S. J. Squires, Owner, Columbia Hotel, West Union, W.Va."

Launa: The likely origin of Launa Capitola Bowyer's middle name was the popular culture of that time. Capitola "Black Cap" Black was the spunky, cross-dressing heroine of "The Hidden Hand: Or, Capitola the Madcap" (serialized 1859, published in book form 1888) by Mrs. E.D.E.N. [Emma Dorothy Eliza Nevitte] Southworth (1819-1899). Searchable census indexes for 1860 and 1870 bring up 202 and 595 Capitolas respectively, suggesting the popularity of serial fiction in general, and of this novel in particular. Towns in California (www.capitola.net) and Texas (extinct) were named for this heroine. [Source: The Daily Genealogist blog at AmericanAncestors.org]

Armand: Armand held several jobs as a youth, including doing custodial work at the West Union Post Office and pumping gas at the local filling station. After his 1941 graduation from Doddridge County High School, he worked at the A&P grocery store at the end of Main Street near the court house. He had a knack for working with fresh produce, much of which was displayed outside the store to attract customers. One person it attracted was a pretty teenager who walked by every morning on her way to school. Armand happened to be watching one day and saw her grab an apple and continue on her way. He rushed out of the store and demanded that she either return the apple or pay for it. We don't know what she ended up doing, because at this point in telling the story, Armand would always say "And that's how I met my wife. I caught her stealing apples." That teenage girl was Geneva Gaston, and they married a few years later. Although it was never made clear in the telling of the story, there's little doubt that far from being an apple thief, Geneva was simply trying to get the attention of someone special.

In the wake of her mother's death shortly after giving birth, Lenora Squires Gaston was raised from infancy by Morris Samuel Gaston and his wife Hattie I. Adams Gaston, and she therefore adopted the Gaston family name. Morris Samuel Gaston was a first cousin of baby Lenora's maternal grandmother, Mary Isabelle Gaston Adams, and a second cousin of her paternal grandmother, Elizabeth Laverna Gaston Squires. There is speculation that Hattie Adams was also a blood relative. The obituary of Morris Samuel Gaston identified as a surviving "foster daughter, Mrs. Cyril Scott of Oxford." Lenora took up residence in Weirton, WV. Her mother's obituary identifies her as Lenore [sic] Scott, her husband's obituary identifies her as Lenore [sic] Squires Gaston Scott, and the Social Security Death Index lists her name as Lenore [sic] Scott.

While growing up in Clarksburg and Maple Lake, he was active in swimming and diving events. He was the last surviving member of the Maple Lake Aquacade of 1941. A great supporter of the youth of Clarksburg, he was a charter member of the Stealey Recreational Center, where he and others built and grew the membership.

As the area swim teams started to develop, Mr. Gaston and the Board of Directors of Stealey Pool initiated the first annual Stealey Invitational Swim Meet, which is still going strong 50 years later. He also started, along with Katherine Williams, the Tri-County Swimming Association, which consisted of Harrison, Upshur and Marion counties. He will be remembered by the youth of Harrison County as the first "starter" at the swim meets dressed in white. Bill also coached youth church league basketball teams and also coached the Washington Irving Varsity Cheerleaders in gymnastic skills. Many of the youth from Stealey Pool will remember his diving exhibitions with John Routa and his brother, Jim Gaston. He was an excellent diver, gymnast and athlete.

Both Hubert Haseltine and his wife were teachers. The 1932 City Directory shows Mr. Haseltine teaching at Asheville High School. They started a small family school, the Haseltine School, on Liberty Street. When the fire department condemned the building, the school was merged with Asheville Country Day in 1950. Asheville Country Day School was started because two of the student's mothers wanted a Protestant, non-sectarian school. The merged schools retained the Asheville Country Day name, with Mr. Haseltine being headmaster, or principal. Space was rented in the Grace Presbyterian Church [1951: Asheville Country Day School, 789 Merrimon Ave.] This building was a former home of Asheville-Biltmore College [1942-1949] and was previously built by the Junior League as a baby home [Buncombe County Children's Home].

Koehler, The Huguenots, or The Early French in New Jersey, original
publication 1955 by Clearfield Co, republished 1992-2003 by Genealogical
Publishing Co, Baltimore, MD, The Gaston entry in its entirety: "The Gaston family was originally from
Foix, Southern France. The earliest
certain ancestor of the New Jersey Gastons was John Gaston, a Huguenot, born
about 1600 in France. The family fled to
Scotland where John married and among other children had three sons, John,
William and Alexander, who later emigrated to County Antrim, Ireland, about
1660-1680. Joseph Gaston, son of John of
Ireland, was born about 1700 in Ireland and came to New Jersey with his
brothers Hugh, John and Alexander. It is
presumed that their arrival was through the port of Perth Amboy about
1720. Joseph Gaston lived in Bernards
Twp, Somerset County, where he died in 1777, leaving his wife Margaret. The widow, Margaret, moved to Hardwick Twp,
Sussex County, with her son Joseph, where she died on August 31, 1795, aged 90
years.", pp. 21-22.

birthplace, stating that he was born "about 1600, in Scotland (or France),
of Huguenot descent." Although he
does not provide a date or identify Jean's wife by name, he does specify that
Jean married in Scotland. p. 40.

this information. Other sources have

(http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_dcsearch.aspx), Death record states birth date

But it also specifies age as 51y 9m 26y, which would put birth date at
Mar 3 1873. A birth date of Mar 3 1872
has also been reported by some researchers, although one, direct descendent
Dennis Newell, advises that a birth date of Mar 29 1872 is also a
possibility. This would be supported by
the fact that her age was given as 8 in the 1880 Census, and as 28 in the 1900
Census, with birth date listed as March 1872.
It would thus appear that her actual date of birth was Mar 29 1872.

transcribed from the original handwritten records. The middle initial "A" would seem
to be a transcription error from the original "R" as found in the 1880
Census, where this child is clearly identifed as Sarah R. Richards. But the 1900 Census identifies her as Lina
Richards (b. Sep 1877), the obituary of brother Daniel in 1968 lists a
surviving sister Lina Watson of Parkersburg, the marriage record of Lina
Richards in Dec 1902 give her age as 25 (i.e., born ca 1877), and the SSDI
shows Lina Watson, b. 18 [sic] Sep 1877, a resident of Parkersburg. Thus, it would appear that at some point in

County Birth Records, Clarksburg, WV.
[1114] WV State Dept

(http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_dcsearch.aspx), An incorrect date of death was
entered on the death record. The
physician's medical certification stated that he had attended the deceased from
Nov 25 1942 to Apr 17 1948, that he had last seen him alive on Mar 27 1928, and
that the date of death was Feb 17 1948.
The certification was dated Apr 17 1948, and date of burial was stated
as Apr 19 1948. The date of death was
clearly intended to be Apr 17 1948, the same date inscribed on the
headstone. The birth date and age at
death recorded on the death record also calculate to the same Apr 17 1948 death
date. The handwritten entries made on
this form were the basis for the typed entries subsequently made for the death
record on file at Harrison County, which reflects the same conflicting
information and incorrect death date.

Death Records, Weston, WV, There are two entries for this death, with
conflicting death dates. (1) DR p.
246: Identified as Sarah A. Allman,
married, age 44y 10m, died Aug 1 1911 at R 4 Weston, cause of death
tuberculosis. (2) DR p. 308: Identified as Sarah Ann Allman, married, age
43y 9m 25d, died Aug 1 1912 at Laurel Lick, cause of death tuberculosis. The 1912 death date more closely conforms to
the 1868 birth year inicated in her marriage record and census records,
although the exact age at death computes to a birth date of Oct 7 1868 rather
than the Sep 1868 given in the 1900 Census.
Laurel Lick does correspond to the rural Weston location given in the
other entry. Death date on headstone is
1911.

[1242] WV State Dept
of Health, Div of Vital Statistics, Death Certificate
(http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_dcsearch.aspx), There is a conflict between
the death record maintained at Mineral County and the death certificate on file
at the State of West Virginia. The
county death record states that Lloyd H. Gaston, age 45, married, occupation
dentist, died of ulcerative endocarditis in Keyser on Aug 4 1918. The state death certificate identifies him as
Lloyd H. Gaston, age 45y2m20d, born in Lewis Co on Aug 4 1863, son of Abram
Gaston & Sarah Morris, died of ulcerative endocarditis in Keyser on Oct 24
1918, burial Oct 27 1918 in Keyser, informant his wife, certificate signed by
medical authority on Oct 31 1918. The
conclusion is that his correct dates are Aug 4 1873 to Oct 24 1918, that the
county-level record inadvertently entered his birth date instead of his death
date, and that the state-level record entered 1863 at his birth year rather
than the 1873 which would conform to his age given in both death records and in
his marriage record. In any event, other
reports of his death occuring on Oct 4 1918 or Oct 31 1918 are incorrect.

"Among the large farms of Southern Kansas perhaps none is more conspicuous
by its high standards and model equipment than the Deming ranch of 3,500 acres,
adjoining the City of Oswego on the north.
... Some of the highest grades of
livestock have their home on this ranch. Mr. Deming raises a herd of from 500
to 1,000 pure bred Poland China hogs, and usually keeps about 500 head of
Hereford cattle."

would put birth in about 1886. Obituary

Childbed fever is more properly known as puerperal fever, a bacterial
infection contracted by women during childbirth or miscarriage. It can develop into puerperal sepsis, which
is a serious form of septicaemia. If
untreated, it is often fatal. From the
1600s through the mid to late 1800s, the majority of childbed fever cases were
caused by the doctors themselves. With
no knowledge of germs, doctors did not believe hand washing was needed. Statements like that of Dr. Charles Meigs, a
leading obstetrician and teacher from Philadelphia, were the attitude of the
time: "Doctors are gentlemen, and gentlemen’s hands are clean." [Source:

16 1873. We originally had birth date
as Jul 16 1874, per Marilyn Davis Jones.
But obituary in May 1948 gave age as 63, without stating a birth date. If she was 63 when she died, that would put
birth in 1884. But then she would have
been only 11 when she married in 1895.
There is still some uncertainty on this.

[1936] Doddridge
County Birth Records, West Union, WV, Child identified as Minnie Eliza Gaston,
the fifth child born to her mother. We
have found no other evidence of any
previous child, and no basis for this child's last name being that of
her mother. Her parents had been married
for well over a year at the time of her birth.
Father: David Hanes [sic] Jones,
age 31, b. Marion Co. Mother: Susan Gaston, age 28. Delayed birth record was filed on Jan 22 1945
by M. S. Gaston, relationship given as uncle.
This would be Susan's 81-year-old brother Morris Samuel Gaston. It is possible that his recording of the
child's last name as Gaston rather than Jones was an error, and that he
mistakenly entered "five" as the child's birth order number in
confusion with the total number of children that the mother ultimately
had. (Her obituary, however, stated that
she was predeceased by 5 brothers and 2 sisters, not identified by name.) It is also noted that while Minnie's obituary
stated her birthplace as Doddridge County, the community of Holbrook is within
Ritchie County on the border with
Doddridge County; Ota Reed Fraker, a first cousin, gives Minnie's birthplace as "near Berea," also in
Ritchie County. In her marriage record
(per Wes Cochran's "Ritchie County Marriages 1843-1915"), Minnie was
identified as Minnie E. Jones, age 20, born in Ritchie County. BR Del Bk 1, p.

"DAVIS, W.Va. (UPI) - Police awaited further word today from men
holding the wife of Davis Mayor Martin "Red" Cooper hostage in return
for $750,000 and the release of a friend charged with murdering a state
trooper.
An unidentified suspect in the Wednesday abduction was captured hours
later near a ski slope at Canaan Valley State Park, apparently without
incident.
State police said they were unable to tell how many persons were
involved in the abduction of Ida Mae Cooper.
She was kidnapped from this small northeastern West Virginia community
when she returned home from a shopping trip in town."
Dallas Morning News, Friday, Jan 27 1978:
"DAVIS, W.Va. (UPI) - Ida Mae Cooper, the 63-year-old wife of
Davis Mayor Martin L. (Red) Cooper, was found shot to death Thursday in a swamp
about 12 hours after she was abducted from her home, state police said.
David B. Mills, 19, of Davis, was captured Wednesday night and charged
with kidnapping and murder in connection with Mrs. Cooper's death.
He was in Tucker County Hospital Thursday with facial cuts received
when he tried to escape in a car and crashed into a snow bank, authorities
said.
State police said the kidnapper had demanded a $750,000 ransom and the
release of a prisoner charged with a state tropper's death in return for Mrs.
Cooper's release.
However, Tucker County Prosecutor J. Pat Nichols said, "I have no
idea in the world" of Mills' connection with Frederick Hamilton, 19, of
Davis, who is charged in the slaying last Oct. 14 of trooper Bruce Brown.
There is "no evidence a this time of a conspirace bewteen Mills
and Hamilton," Nichols said.
The first report that Mrs. Cooper had been kidnapped came Wednesday
afternoon when a man, who identified himself as "Scorpio," telephoned
a reporter at the Elkins Inter-Mountain newspaper and demanded the money, a
4-wheel drive vehicle, and Hamilton's release by 9 p.m.
"We have Red Cooper's wife, Ida Cooper, at gunpoint," the man
said.
"Scorpio" permitted the reporter to talk with Mrs. Cooper,
who said, according to state police:
"This is true. He's got a
gun on me. He broke into my house when I
was in town."
State police said they "strongly believe" the abductor then
drove Mrs. Cooper from her home to a swampy area 14 mile south of David and
shot her at least twice.
Authorities theorized that after shooting Mrs. Cooper, the kidnapper
called the newspaper a second time to repeat his demands, then made a collect
telephone call to state police at Elkins.
State police, working in the newsroom, traced the call to a telephone
booth at Canaan Valley ski area.
Troopers said Mills was spotted Wednesday night at the Canaan Valley
ski area and tried to flee in the Coopers' sedan, but he ran into a snow bank.
A number of guns were found in the car, state police said."
