[Bier.FTW] [Don Maxwell .FTW] A History of the State of Oklahoma by Luther B. Hill, A. B. vol. II, The Lewis Publishing Company, 1908 Arthur W. Maxwell. The present receiver of the U. S. land office at Lawton is Arthur W. Maxwell, who received appointment to that office from President Roosevelt on December 24, 1905, and who has since been a resident of Lawton. Besides being known as a capable public offical, Mr. Maxwell is recognized as one of the ablest newspaper men of the state. He is president of the company that publishes the Semi-Weekly Star at Lawton. It was in the newspaper business that Mr. Maxwell got his start and first displayed that ability in the organization and management of men and affairs that has made his career - he is only thirty-seven years of age - one of remarkable progress and accomplishment. Shortly before coming to Oklahoma he had taken a practical part in politics that gave him national prominence during the campaign of 1904. Born and reared in Jefferson county, Iowa, he had finished his education in the high school at Fairfield, that county, and had then laid the foundation for his newspaper career by learning the printer's trade in his home town. Some time later he founded, and for thirteen years was editor and publisher of the Seymour (Iowa) Leader. The Leader was a Democratic journal, and the ability with which it was conducted soon brought it into prominence not only locally but as one of the influential Democratic papers of the state. From observing and influencing politics as an editor, he was soon transferred to the practical work of political management. As a political organizer and campaign manager he proved as efficient as he had been in the editor's chair , and the result was that, although a young man, he was rapidly promoted from the ranks until, in the presidential campaign of 1904, he was made chairman of the Iowa State Democratic executive committee, and was also elected alternate delegate at large to the National Democratic convention of that year in St. Louis. During the preceding five years Mr. Maxwell had been a member of the state executive committee. When the lines were being drawn in the contest between the various candidates for the presidential nomination by the Democratic convention, he championed the cause of William R. Hearst in opposition to Judge Parker, in the sincere belief that the corporate influences supporting Parker and antagonistic to Hearst, made the latter's candidacy more consistent with Democratic principles and more likely to achieve sucess at the polls. As chairman of the state central committee he effected a thorough organization in everycounty in Iowa to support Hearst. He and his associates went out into all the districts according to a systematic plan and by personal solicitation enlisted the support of representative citizens in each county. As a result, notwithstanding bitter aopposition on the part of a number of politicians in the party, Iowa sent a Hearst delegation to St. Louis. This is rightly credited to Mr. Maxwell as a somewhat remarkable achievement, when one takes into consideration the well known conservatism of the average Iowan. The St. Louis conventionplaced the Democratic party on such a basis, that Mr. Maxwell, who was a thorough admirer of the character and principles of Theodore Roosevelt, decided to become an independent Republican, and accordingly on the 17th of July resigned the chairmanship of the state central committee. During the rest of the campaign he was an active worker on the Republican side in Missouri, making twenty-five speeches for Roosevelt in that state, and no doubt was one of the effective influences that caused that rock-dibbed Democratic commonwealth to give a majority to Roosevelt. During the campaign he established, at Moberly, Missouri, a Republican paper named the Tribune. Mr. Maxwell knows the newspaper business from the very fundamentals, and aside from his political activity that has been his chief occupation. He was married in Iowa to Miss Clara M. Peterson, and they have four children - Harry C., Clarence M., Raymond L., and Robert C. Lawton (OK) News, Jan 25, 1906 Mr. Maxwell Wants Harmony He Gives Oklahomans a Little Advice without Butting in to Affairs Hon. A. W. Maxwell, of Moberly, Missouri, whom President Roosevelt appointed receiver of the United States land office at Lawton, as a reward for Maxwell's services for the party during the memorable campaign of 1904, says that when he arrives in Oklahoma he will not "but in" to factional affairs. In last week's issue of the Moberly (Mo.) Tribune, of which Mr. Maxwell is editor, he says: "Ex-Gov. Tom Ferguson, of Oklahoma, will be a candidate for Delegate to Congress to succeed Delegate McGuire in the even that the territory is not admitted as a state. Ferguson's friends feel that the Ex-Governor has not been fairly treated by the McGuire faction and are of the opinion that the most effective way to punish the Oklahoma Delegate is to send Ferguson to Congress as McGuire's successor. "It is very evident to the Tribune man that he is landing in Oklahoma in time to see a very pretty fight between the factions of the state. That reminds me that we received a letter from Oklahoma some days ago in which it was suggested that if we (the editor) had power enough to harmonize the two factions in Oklahoma we would be the `biggest' man in the teritory. Another case of where `if' is painfully in the way. It would be nice to be the `biggest' man in the territory and show Gov. Frantz, Delegate McGuire, Dennis Flynn and other big ones where to `head in,' but as President Roosevelt has tried in vain to harmonize the factions, we are of the opinion that the Tribune editor will find plenty to do by attending strictly to his duties as Receiver of the Land Office at Lawton. We have seen the time that we were determined to have harmony even if we had to fight for it, but that was when we were more combative than now. Seriously speaking, however, from this distance it would seem that the interests of the party would demand that the leaders of the factions get together, bury theor differences and resolve to work together in a spirit of harmony, with a view to rolling up a good safe republican majority when the territories are admitted as one state. Beyond giving this little bit of good advice we shall not attempt to "butt in". {Obituary from the Ledger, Fairfield, IA, Oct. 3, 1929, p. 1, col. 4} Maxwell Rites Here Tomorrow Body of Former Fairfield Resident Arrived here Today from Home in Dixon, Ill. Funeral services for Arthur W.

Smith will be in charge and interment will be in Evergreen cemetery. The body arrived here today accompanied by the widow and the oldest son, Harry, who had come from his home in Dallas, Texas, a week ago to be with his father. Mr. Maxwell's death was due to paralysis. He was born in Fairfield, March 20 , 1871, and was educated in the public schools, and learned the printing trade in the Tribune office. At the age of 20 he went to Seymour and started a newspaper, the Leader, and was active in politics, being sent by the Republican national committee to stump for[President Teddy] Roosevelt in the campaign in which Missouri first went into the republican ranks. The victory gave him political prestige and [President Teddy] Roosevelt made him receiver of public monies at the land office at Lawton, Oklahoma. He became financially interested in the Guthrie Times[newspaper] and engaged in the capital location fight in which Guthrie lost to Oklahoma City. In 1917 he came back north and established the Pioneer Service company, a collection agency, in Dixon[Illinois] with which he was connected to the time of his death. He married Miss Matilda Peterson here, December 24, 1890 and to them were born six children, Harry, whose house is in Dallas, Raymond, Clarence, James, Robert, Julian and Marjorie, who all live in Oklahoma City. He was married again in 1919, his bride being Miss Elizabeth Timme of Storm Lake[Iowa]. ARTHUR WALTER MAXWELL WAS BURIED AT EVERGREEN CEM. IN JEFFERSON COUNTY, IOWA.

[Bier.FTW] [Don Maxwell .FTW] from Turner Publishing Comp., Publishers of America's History, 1996, p. 81-82; Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War. Donald Power Maxwell, Jr., joined as a member-at-large on November 14, 1994. He bases his right to membership on several Civil War ancestors. The Maxwell family were among the first pioneers to settle in Fairfield, Jefferson County, Iowa, in 1849. The patriarch, Benjamin Maxwell served as a private in Co. F, 3rd IA Cav., from September 4, 1861 to September 14, 1862, when he obtained a medical discharge after injuring his wrist falling from his mount "pursuing rebels" in Mexico, MS. Benjamin misstated his age by ten years to qualify for service. Apparently, he was not the only one to do so, as referenced by the famous Iowa regiment nickname of "The Gray Beards". Benjamin had three sons who also served: 1. William Whistler Maxwell, of Co. F, 3rd IA Cav., who mustered in on August 30 , 1861. 2. Pvt. Abner B. Maxwell, of Co. f, 3rd IA Cav., whe served from August 30, 1861 to September 19, 1864. 3. 2nd Cpl. Harvey Clayton Maxwell, Donald Maxwell's great-great-grandfather, who served with Co. G, 30th Iowa Infantry, from September 14, 1861 through June 5, 1862. He marched over 3000 miles from Keokuk, Iowa, to Vicksburg on to Atlanta and Savannah, participating in major battles at each. He was wounded by a musket ball in the head at Vicksburg during the same attack in which the Regimental Colonel was killed. He was mustered out of service at Washington D.C., and thankfully returned to Iowa by rail. Of the 1, 132 original members of the 30th Regiment, over half died or were wounded during the War. During a Maxwell family reunion in 1919, celebrating Harvey Maxwell's 76th birthday, a granddaughter affectionately remembers him telling the story that "the reason he was bald" was because of his war injury...a "cannonball" which " just barely grazed" the top of his head on May 22, 1863 in Vicksburg.

| 8699 | I1069 | Maxwell | Elizabeth | 24 Feb 1838 | 19 Nov 1922 | 0 | 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. MRS. ELIZABETH MAXWELL ROOT. ELIZABETH MAXWELL WAS BURIED AT BETHESDA CEM. IN JEFFERSON COUNTY, IOWA. SHE MARRIED A.C. ROOT IN 1865 IN DEFIANCE OHIO. |
