| 6880 | From the Biographical History of Clark and Jackson Counties, Wisconsin, published by The Lewis Publishing Co., 1891 pages 197 and 198 (downloaded from Usgennet.org) REV. J. F. VOLZ is the present pastor of Saint Mary's Catholic Church at Neillsville, Wisconsin. Religious services were first held in the present church building in 1878. It is a substantial structure of brick, and was erected at a cost of 3,500. In connection with the church there is a school building, which was completed in 1887. St. Mary's Parochial School has an average attendance of seventy pupils. The parsonage, or priest's residence, is a comfortable dwelling, and the style of it is in keeping with the other surroundings. The congregation of St. Mary's Church numbers about one hundred and twenty-five families, about equally divided as residents of the town and adjoining country. Catholic religious services have been held in Neillsville regularly since 1876 previous to that date they were conducted only occasionally. Among the names prominent in the promotion of the interests of the church throughout its history should be mentioned that of Mr. James Furlong, who was truly one of its chief benefactors. He donated the land on which the church property is located, and was ever a liberal and earnest supporter of the church. He was highly esteemed, was a public-spirited citizen, and one of the honored pioneers of Neillsville his home was formerly in the State of Pennsylvania his death occurred in 1884. The Rev. Father Volz has had charge of this congregation since 1879. He has accomplished a great deal towards improving the church property in his time. When he came here the church was in a rough, unfinished state, and the congregation 1,000 in debt. The church and its surroundings have been much improved and the entire indebtedness removed through the faithful and energetic labors of the present pastor, and the hearty cooperation of the active members. The Rev. J.F. Volz was born at Prattsburgh, in the State of Indiana, January 1, 1857 the same year his father, Melchior Volz, removed his family to LaCrosse, Wisconsin, and they have since made it their home. Melchior Volz is a well-known citizen, and a retried businessman of the place. Father Volz received his earlier education in the parochial schools of LaCrosse, and was graduated from St. John's College at Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin in 1873. He took his theological course at St. Francis Seminary near Milwaukee was ordained a priest November 9, 1879, by the late Archbishop Heiss, and was well fitted for the work he has chosen. His present charge is his first one, and he has exhibited a marked ability in its management. | Volz, Joseph Francis (I1210)

| 6881 | From The Corning Journal, 25 Oct 1877 Died, in Corning, N.Y., Oct. 21, 1877, at the residence of her son, Rev. M.L.P. Hill, Elizabeth Ann, daughter of Rev. Conrad Ten Eyck, and wife of the late Rev. Robert W. Hill, of Rochester, N.Y. Mrs. Hill was born in Schenectady, N.Y., June 26, 1803, adn was the last of a large family of children. She was converted at the age of twelve years, and was married to Mr. Hill, July 7, 1827. The daughter of a minister, having for an uncle the beloved Professor Perrine, of Auburn Theological Seminary; her husband pastor at East Bloomfield for twenty years, whence he removed to Rochester to occupy the editorial chair of the Genesee Evangelist, which at his death, twenty years ago, was merged into the American Presbyterian, and since that time living with her oldest son - her whole life has been related to the ministry of the Gospel. In her early life she was eminently social and active and in later years of sickness and suffering developed beautifully the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit; patient and unmurmuring, she feared lest she should not be resigned to the Master's will, yet praying to depart and be with Christ. Loving hands ministered cheerfully to her in her last years, and a kind people added their ministry of rarest flowers and helpful sympathy. "Thanks be to God who giveth us the victory, through our Lord Jesus." Funeral services will be held at the Presbyterian Parsonage, on Tuesday afternoon. An excellent address was made by Rev. S.W. Pratt of Campbell, who spoke of the uncommon Christian usefulness of the deceased during her active life, and hoof her remarkable patience in the last few years, during most of which time she has been comparatively helpless and has endured severe and often intense and protracted pain. Rev. E.T. Green, Presiding Elder of the M.E. Church, Rev. G.W. Chandler, pastor of the M.E. Church and Rev. F.K. Fowler, Pastor of the Baptist Church, took part in the funeral services. On Wednesday, the remains were taken to Rochester to be buried in Mount Hope Cemetery, where the husband of the deceased was buried. Quite a number of friends from the city were present at the Chapel, at the entrance of the Cemetery, where religious services were held by Rev. S.M. Campbell, Pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church at Rochester. His remarks were exceedingly consoling, and were an admirable tribute to the memory of the deceased. | Ten Eyck, Elizabeth Anne “Betsey” (I1327)

At 12:20 o?clock he passed peacefully away, surrounded by members of his family. Because of his long establishment in the practice of general medicine and surgery in this city and the prominence he gained in more recent years as a specialist, Dr. Long was probably one of the best known members of the medical profession in this section of the peninsula.

He was sent to Camp Devers, Mass., and served rotation at Camp Upton, Camp Greene, and Camp Grant, finally receiving his discharge from military service at Camp Custer, June 30, 1919. In order to refit himself for the division of medicine and surgery in which he desired to specialize he took a post-graduate course at Rush Medical college and opened his office at Gary, Ind., in the late fall of 1919. He returned to Escanaba in 1934 and had since been engaged in the practice of his profession, in the city where first hung out his shingle in 1900.

| 6895 | From The Harvard graduates' magazine, Volume 29 (Jun 1921), pg 662 Richard Blynn Varnum died at the American Hospital in Paris on March 6. He was a holder of one of the American Field Service Fellowships for French Universities, and was studying International Law at the University of Toulouse when he became ill with malarial fever, which he had first contracted in war service in the Balkans. Then, suffering from supposed bronchitis, he was sent, Dec. 5, to Biskra, in Algeria, where it was hoped the dry atmosphere would help him. But his condition became worse, and although late in February he was able to be moved to Paris, the disease could not be checked. He was born in Belding, Mich., Oct. 25, 1892. His father, a retired Methodist Episcopal minister, Rev. C. A. Varnum, lives in Jerome, Idaho. Varnum had spent two years in Hillsdale College, Mich., before entering Harvard with the Class of 1919, where he made a splendid record. The late Frederick Schenck called him "a brilliant pupil," and a letter from Barrett Wendell said, "He has impressed me as a faithful worker and an honest man." He had already been earning his own living as a stenographer for some years before coming to Harvard, and he was working his way through College when, in February, 1917, he sailed to join the American Ambulance Field Service in France. He served with Section Three in Serbia and Albania, until October, when he returned to France, and enlisted in the United States Air Service. He trained at Tours and Issoudun, and made an enviable record. Upon being commissioned a first lieutenant, in April, 1918, he was retained, much against his wishes, as an instructor at one of the aerial centers until after the Armistice. Then, however, he was assigned to the 166th Aero Squadron and sent with it into Germany. He did not return to America until August, 1919, for discharge, and immediately thereupon reentered Harvard. He was a factor in the flying activities of the University, took part in the intercollegiate aero meet in June, 1920, and was granted an American Field Service Fellowship for his "scholastic record, fine character, and dependability." From "Bulletin of the American Field Service Ass'n", #4, July 1921 Varnum, Richard Blynn, S. S. U. 3, an American Field Service Fellow, died of tuberculosis in Paris, March 6, 1921. "DICK" VARNUM RICHARD BLYNN VARNUM, a holder of one of the American Field Service Fellowships for French Universities, died March 6, 1921, from consumption at the American Hospital in Paris, France. A Harvard man who received a war degree in 1920, VARNUM was studying international law at the University of Toulouse when he became ill with malarial fever, which he had first contracted in war service in the Balkans. Then, suffering from supposed bronchitis he was sent on December 5th to Biskra, in Algeria, where it was hoped the dry atmosphere would help him. But consumption developed rapidly and, although late in February he was able to be moved to Paris, the disease could not be checked. Plans were made to send him to Switzerland, but before they could be carried out, he died. In February, 1917, Richard VARNUM joined the American Field Service and served with Section Three in Serbia and Albania until October, when he returned to France and enlisted in the United States Air Service. In April, 1918, he was commissioned First Lieutenant. | Varnum, Richard Blynn “Dick” (I6683)

| 6896 | from the Highland Township Historical Society The Rev. Thomas Baker, Jr. was born September 28, 1771, at Groton, Massachusetts (although one account claims he was "a native of the Green Mountain State," i.e., Vermont). He married Jerusha Waldo on March 15, 1799, at Alstead, New Hampshire, and soon after became an itinerant Baptist minister, travelling throughout the Genesee region of western New York. At the time he made his purchase in Highland Township in 1836 he was apparently a resident of "Upper Canada" (i.e., modern Ontario). Following his arrival in Michigan he continued to preach throughout Oakland and Livingston counties. On April 14, 1838, he attended a meeting of Baptists in Livingston County which led to the founding of the Howell Baptist Church, in which he served as the first pastor. The Rev. Baker died on October 4, 1850; most likely in Highland Township (although one account erroneously says he died in 1845). His wife, Jerusha (Waldo) Baker, died January 16, 1851, at age 73 years, 6 months, 5 days. Their son, Royal Baker, was also an original Highland Township landowner. | Baker, Rev Thomas (I14477)
