| 5321 | OBITUARY ELIZABETH MAXWELL ROOT Mrs. Elizabeth Maxwell Root passed quietly from life unto death Saturday night at 9:30 o'clock. Mrs. Root had been in failing health for several months but her last illness was of a short duration. Elizabeth Maxwell was the daughter of the late Benjamin and Jane Maxwell and was born near Delphi, Ind., February 24, 1838. When but ten years of age she with her parents, brothers and sister came to Iowa, which was then called the far west. The trip was made overland and the company were three weeks on the road. Fairfield was but a mere village then. She endured the privations of frontier life and lived to see the different modes of traveling from the ox cart to the airplane. At an early age in life she joined the M.E. church. She was united in marriage to A.C. Root in 1865 and they lived a happy wedded life until the grim monster death, called the husband and father in 1907. After their marriage they spent seven years near Defiance, Ohio, moving back to Iowa in 1872 and settled on the home farm at Beckwith. Three children were the fruit of this union, Victor A.; Dell M.; and Mrs. Jennie Prince, all residents of Jefferson county. Mrs. Root will ever be remembered as a true hearted friend, a kind and generous neighbor, a tender devoted mother, a loving faithful wife and a sympathetic sister. She also leaves one brother, H.C. Maxwell of Fairfield, who is now the only surviving member of a once large family. The last services will be held this (Monday) afternoon at the Bethesda church at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. Pool a former pastor. The family desires to express their heartfelt thanks to their many friends and neighbors for their kindness in their hour of sorrow. A POEM When we say we've lost a mother, Is it strange that we do weep, Whilst our darling earthly treasure Her vigilance has ceased to keep? Ne'er again we'll know the boon Of a precious mother's care, Bending o'er us in our illness, Anxious soul engaged in prayer. And in love she did reprove us When we erred from the right way; Ever watchful of our footsteps Ever anxious day, night and day - That we tread the ways of wisdom That we seek our riches where Moth and rust do not corrupt them, That our lives be full of prayer; That our lamps be trimmed and burn When the Bridegroom enters in, When the books shall all be opened, That eternal life we gain. Oh, the words of love and comfort We were wont to hear from you, As life's trials passed before us, Or the shadows came in view. Or as launched out on life's ocean, With the sunshine on the tide, If thy sweet smile of approval would go with us and abide. Then we felt that life were joyous, And we liv'd in pleasures here, Till the angel of the covenant Called you to a higher sphere. May we meet our dearest mother Beyond the city of the dead; Where there comes no dreaded parting, Where no farewell tears are shed. When the last dread foe is conquered, Calm without and peace within, Meet her in the Crystal City [Cleansed, Saved?] from every earthly sin Jefferson County Republican, Nov. 11, 1904, Page 1. written by Liz [Elizabeth Maxwell Root] "Pioneer Life in 1849 in Buchanan Township" I have been requested to write up a short sketch of my experience of pioneer life which might be of interest to you many readers. Early in the spring of '49 my father, Benjamin Maxwell, and family which consisted of mother, five brothers, a sister and myself, aged ten years, left Delphi, Carroll county, Ind. For the "far west" as Iowa was then known. We were accompanied by Uncle John and Aunt Mary Ann McCormick and their seven children. The trip was made in six covered wagons. One in particular I remember as we called it "The Prairie Schooner". It was headed with four yoke of oxen. Paper money was scarce; everything was gold and silver. Uncle John's sack of money was in one corner of this "Schooner" which anyone of us children could not lift. Uncle John was what we called rich in those days. We were three weeks on the road when we arrived at Uncle Henry Overholser's, he being the father of Milt and the late Mrs. Balden Parsons. We moved into a shanty on the David Keltner place and in the coming fall Father purchased 160 acres of government land for $150. And that $150 was harder to procure in those days than $1500 would be today. My father built a log house and there are yet today a few logs left standing to mark the old homestead, on what is now the K. Caviness farm. It was here we had many joys and sorrows. A little sister died and was the first person laid in the Bethesda cemetery. Uncle John McCormick purchased the land that is now owned by Mr. Groves and lived in a double log house which was something a little extra then. There were no railroads; the goods were hauled from Burlington to Fairfield "over land". There were but few roads. We would just go across the prairies horseback or with big wagons. To see a buggy was quite a treat, more so than an "auto" is today. There were just two orchards in this part of the county, one at John Parsons' now the Hawkins place, and the other at Uncle John McCormick's. we gathered wild berries and crabs to make butter and thickened with sorghum we considered it very good. And happy was the man that could afford pumpkin butter. The wolves and deers could be seen and heard at all times. Our neighbors were few and far between but were good and very sociable. There was no envy or strife among us; we were all on equal footing. I will mention a few of our '49er neighbors. There were Daniel Clapp's, McRose's, a family by the name of Cooper who lived on the James place, and the widow Clover. On the Burlington road from Parsonville to Fairfield was the old Hickenbottom house which kept many a weary traveler over night. A man by the name of [Geller?] lived in a log cabin where George Parsons now lives. Homer Humphreys lived in a little shanty where Dell Green's place is now. The Restmer's lived on what is now the Burkhart farm, making just four houses on the road to Fairfield. Our amusements were corn huskings, wool pickings, quiltings, etc. A little incident occurs to my mind while writing of the pioneer days, which goes to show that we were not without our jokes. At an entertainment given at the Rose school house, Caleb Cooper, a young man, was badly smitten with one of our most beautiful young ladies. A party of the young people decided to deceive young Caleb, Brother Will Maxwell, who was always ring leader when it came to fun, was accordingly dressed to represent the said young lady. He wore a sunbonnet which was quite fashionable then and accompanied Mr. Cooper to the schoolhouse, and taking a back seat, Mr. Cooper never knew the difference but what it was the young lady that he was in love with. Many a hearty laugh was indulged in at Caleb's expense. It is needless to say that he failed to win the young lady for his wife. A singing school was organized under the leadership of W.D. Clapp who, we are glad to say, is still able to be with us. Mary Clover was known for miles around as the pioneer school teacher. She taught reading, writing and spelling, and boarded around with her pupils. Isaac Hodson was another first-class pioneer school teacher, not only with books, but also with the switch. We children had to toe the mark. We knew full well that a switching at school meant another when we returned home. When our country called for help many of our brave boys enlisted. Will McCormick, second son of John McCormick, was mortally wounded in a battle in Arkansaw and died soon afterwards. Father and three brothers, Will, Almer and Harvey, enlisted; the four, all together, spent eleven years in the country's service. While the war was still ragging, the women were at home trying to do a man's work, and many a time we women were forced to help our brothers (those that were too young to enlist) to haul wood from the timber and gather corn for the hogs. I well remember the time when we would mount old Fan, with a bucket of butter for Mrs. Capt. Crail, and come to Fairfield to hear the latest war news, and if it was good news, how quick old Fan could carry us home. When Abe Lincoln was elected a grand rally was indulged in by all. A band wagon with 36 young ladies, each one carrying a banner to represent a state in the Union. I remember mine being Maine. We were all dressed in white while just on the outside of the wagon a chair was fastened and Elinor McCormick was seated dressed in deep mourning, representing Kansas which was just waiting to be admitted as a State. Five span of white horses were attached to the wagon. The drivers were Will Maxwell, Henry McCormick, Ike Brown and another young man whose name I have forgotten. As we marched through the streets we were cheered with "God bless those patriotic girls, but we pity the bachelor drivers." wishing us long life and prosperity and good husbands, and showering candies upon us. Those days were long to be remembered. We almost all went barefooted so as to save our shoes for Sunday wear, and if we had a good calico dress and a sunbonnet we were as happy then as the young ladies are today dressed in their silks and satins. And when we went visiting it was a visit and not a call, as everybody was sociable and visited for miles around. The dinners were not served in courses, but were first-class and substantial. And the good sorghum cakes that Mary Clover and Mrs. Levi Fawcett used to bake are still fresh in my memory. My father and mother lived and died on the old homestead. They died in the years of 1883 and 1884 at the ages of 78 and 75 years, having raised nine children who were all living at the time of their death. But in the year of '92 brother Jim was called Home at the early age of 41 years, he being the youngest of the family. In '94 brother John, living in Chariton, died. In '98 brother Almer died in Neb. Bro. George whom I have not seen for over 50 years was last heard of in Oregon. Brother Will and sister Belle are in Neb. Brother Harvey is in Davenport, while Brother Isaac and myself are the only surviving members in the county of a once large family. How soon a family is separated and gone while memory still remains.

| 5324 | Obituary of James Maxwell Deaths of one man and two boys. James Maxwell drown in a pond. Jess and Jack Kanouse drowned in Cedar. Special to the Journal. Little thought we when we followed all of that which was earthly of Mrs. McClain to her final resting place Saturday, that even before another sun would set we would be called upon to carry the lifeless form back to his family of one who was in the procession and in perfect health but so it is. "In the midst of life we are in death" and on Sunday at 2:30 o'clock we took James Maxwell from Mr. Jenks pond and carried his body back to his home which he had left but a few hours previous .Sunday morning he with several boys spoke of going to Mr. Jenks pond to bathe. The pond is about 1/4 mile from Mr. Jenks house and covers two acres of ground. It was about nine feet deep where he met his death. He and Bill Parsons were in a boat. They were informed how deep the water was. While Bill wanted to go back, Mr. Maxwell only laughed at his fears and went on .Bill jump out and commenced swimming to the shore when the boat capsized throwing Mr. Maxwell into the water. Every effort was made to save him, but in vain. He arose the third time but there was not anyone present that could swim and dive. This happened about 10:30 o'clock p.m. his body could not be found until to 12:30 p.m. Clark Tracy and William Stump of Fairfield, at that time dived and brought the body to the surface. James M. Maxwell was born May 30,1851. He was married to this Linda Lynn in January, 1873. Four children were the fruit of this union, Mae and Ola now young ladies, Ray aged 10 and Harry, who died when a babe. At all times the Angel of Death is an unwelcome visitor and earth and life never seems more dark and desperate to a wife and children as when they surround for the last time the casket containing all that is mortal of a husband and father. The agony of such an hour can only be fully realized by those to have passed through such an ordeal. Our hearts go out in sympathy to them and our prayer is that God may give the loving spirit to comfort and sustain them, for he alone has the power. The funeral services conducted by Rev. Sampson, were held at Bethesda at 3 p.m. after which the remains were interred in the Bethesda cemetery. The large attendance at the funeral showed the esteem in which Mr. Maxwell was held by his acquaintances. | Maxwell, James Monroe (I923)

On 11 FEB 1760 Michael bought from Martinus Sipple, for 200 pounds, 200 acres in Murderkill forest, part of the dwelling plantation of his deceased father. Michael made his will 9 APR 1765; it was proved 15 MAY 1765. He gave his son Benjamin the 200 acres he bought from Martinus Sipple; to his daughter Mary Furbee a Negro girl called Tish; to his daughter Nancy Furbee a Negro girl called Perulow whom he bought from David Lewis; "unto a child that my wife is now big with 40 pounds"; to daughters Mary and Nancy and the unborn child his dwelling plantation that belonged to his mother, Susannah Lewis; to his wife Mary one third of his land and moveable estate and a Negro woman called Hannah.

| 5332 | On 8 JUN 1813, Richard Price and wife Eleanor, George Furbay and wife Elizabeth, Davis Meredith and wife Anne, John Parker and wife Mary, all of Monongalia Co., VA, sold to William Pritchard of Allegany Co., MD, for $60, two 50-acre lots west of Ft. Cumberland (i.e., in Allegany Co., MD); Thomas Pritchard Sr. of Allegany Co., deceased, had owned the land; he died intestate with children Eleanor, Elizabeth, Anne, and Mary; signed Richard Price, Eleanor / (her mark) Price, George Furbay, Elih Furbay, Davis Meredith, Anne Meredith, John Parker, Mary Parker; wit. R. Barkshire; deed recorded 18 NOV 1813. George's will, made 3 APR 1849 and probated during JAN term 1850, gave his wife Elizabeth half the land and the balance of his personal estate; the other half of the land went to his daughter Sarah Beaty and her husband Jeremiah; at Elizabeth's death all the land was to go to Sarah if she paid $50 apiece to Thomas Smith and Richard [sic] Smith and $35 to Margaret Millan; signed George (his mark) Furbee; witnesses were Jonathan Musgrave, Felix C. Michael. This was George's second will, apparently written after a great deal of pressure from Elizabeth to include her children by her previous marriage. George felt he had already taken care of them in other material ways, and the witnesses and several neighbors and relatives were called in to testify about George's state of mind when he made the second will and about the degree of pressure put on him by Elizabeth. One neighbor, Edna Amos, said that just after Jonathan Musgrave had been sent for to write the second will, Elizabeth said, "Justice is going to take place now; I hope it will take place. I always thought a person could not die without justice taking place first." In the end, the second will prevailed. | Furbee, George (I13003)

| 5335 | On February 12th, 1721 Michael Lowber deeded 100 acres of land to Benjamin and Susannah, as a wedding present. Benjamin called it "Furbys Lott" and it was located on the Two Runs later called Double Run, which is about eight miles away from Dover, Maryland. The land was part of the Southampton tract he had purchased from Daniel Rutty. The land remained in the family for almost 100 years. It was on this land that Benjamin was the owner and operator of the "King George's Inn" where he went by the title of "Squire". On August 10th, 1724 Benjamin increased his land holdings. He bought from Andrew Caldwell, for he price of ten pounds a parcel, the land between that of William Mifflin and a branch of Murderkill Creek, the Double Run. This land had been previously sold to Caldwell by Michael Lowber and the purchase of the land brought the land back into the family. | FURBEE, BENJAMIN III (I11141)
