"JOSEPH SMITH TREASE..
The commercial world has long since come to recognize the importance of the farmer who furnishes the food for the world and has surrounded him with almost innumerable contrivances not thought of a century ago. The inventor has given him the self binder, the riding plow, the steam thresher and many other labor saving devices and the farmer has not been slow to take advantage o f the improvements thus offered. Among the hard working farmers of Tock Center Township, Jasper County is the subject of this sketch, Joseph Smith Trease, who was born July 13, 1855 in this county. There he has lived to see the great transformation of the same from wild sparsely settled stretches of prairie to one of the great Hawkeye commonwealth, and has not only been an interested spectator of the same, but a lively participant.
He is the son of Joshua Madison Trease, who was born in North Carolina, April 2, 1810, and who married Nancy Maise, who was born in Claiborne County, Tennessee, January 7, 1813.

acres in that Township where he has a neat little home and is making a comfortable living. Mr. Trease was married on Sept. 28, 1882 to Carrie Edna Rice who was born in Illinois, April 21, 1866, the daughter of James Austin Rice who was born in Wooster (Worcester), Massachusetts.

General Notes: The following is from: "Compendum of Nebraska History, Reminiscence and Biography" R978.2 qC73 pg 901: GEORGE W. RICE
"Located very pleasantly in section one, township twenty-seven, range eight, is to be found the gentleman whose name introduces this biography. Mr. Rice has been identified with the history of Antelope County from a very early date and his contributions to the welfare of this section of the state have been such as to merit the highest praise. Mr. Rice has the sterling
qualities that go to make a substantial citizen. He is a man of industrious habits, persistence, honesty of purpose, and force of character.
Mr. Rice was born in Jasper County, Iowa March 9, 1869, his birth place being a farm house, and his associations from the first being with agricultural interests. It is natural, therefore, that he should be a farmer, and that he should find success in life's endeavors in the tilling of the soil. Our subject's father, Austin Rice, was born in Worcester, Mass., in 1834, his father coming from England when he was a young man; our subject's mother's maiden name was Clara Clark, born in 1840 in Worcester, Massachusetts. (Note that James was born i n 1824... not 1834. Clara was born in 1831.)
Mr. Rice's parents came to Nebraska in 1882, settling south of Clearwater in Stanton township, Antelope county, where they took up a homestead on which they built a sod house and resided there eight years . Our subject then moved near Royal where he rented for nine years. He then bought a tree claim from S.A. Boyd the claim consisting of one hundred and sixty acres of land in section one, township twenty-seven, range eight. Later Mr. Rice sold this homestead and bought the southwest quarter of section one, township twenty-seven, range eight, which is well improved and is now the residing place of our subject. He devotes a good deal of attention to fine hogs and now owns about seventy-five full blooded Duroe (SIC) Jersey hogs, subject to registration, mostly sired by Red Chief "I Am," some from "Nebraska Bell" an d "Failor's Model".
In 1892 Mr. Rice was united in marriage to Miss Mary Ludwick, and Mr. and Mrs. Rice are the parents of six children, named as follows: Clarence , Alva, Floyd, Roy, Austin (SIC should be Lester), and Lewis. They are a fine family and highly esteemed and respected by all in the community.
Mr. Rice relates many interesting reminiscences concerning early days in Antelope county. He and his two brothers were at school when the great blizzard of January 12, 1888, came up. They started for home which was one and a half miles distant. His brothers were not able to continue so stopped at a neighbor's house, about eighty rods from the school; but he continued on his way home, keeping the road by watching closely some tracks that had been made by hand sleds that they took to school with them and thus he managed to get home safely."

George married Mary Alice Ludwick, daughter of Jonnathan Ludwick and Harriett (Ludwick), on 23 Nov 1891. Mary was born on 13 Jun 1870 in Kellogg, Jasper Co., IA and died on 21 Jul 1962 in Fairbury, Jefferson Co., NE aged 92.

Flower ladies were; Lenora Jacobsen, LaVon Napier, Leona Benda, Diane Rice.

As a young lady she moved with her parents to a farm south of Clearwater, Nebraska. She was a teacher in Antelope County Public Schools for a number of years.
In 1890 she was united in holy matrimony to George Rice. They took up a homestead two miles east of Orchard and they spent most of their lives in the Orchard Community. To this union was born six sons and one daughter.
Those preceding in death were: Wilda in 1904; Louis in 1920; and her husband in 1931.

He had an abscess in his head which affected his optic nerve, practically destroying it, and for about a year he and his mother made regular trips to Omaha where the little fellow took radium treatments which seemed to prove beneficial, until about three months ago when he contracted the scarlet fever, and from that time on he gradually grew worse until the end.

General Notes: Census 1880 USA

Charles married Catherine "Kit" Durgin. Catherine was born about 1847 in Dixmont, ME.

General Notes: I am a Durgin family researcher living in Maine. Have been searching for twin sisters, Catherine and Caroline A. "Carrie" Durgin who were born abt 1847 in Dixmont Maine.

I THINK Caroline married Henry Hutchins in Lewiston. They had a son George and twin girls Carrie Mae and Cassie Maud born May 2 1876 in Douglas, MA. Henry died in Douglas MA in 1894. Still have not found a death for his wife Caroline A. Durgin Hutchins.

However, I believe that I have found Caroline's twin, Catherine Durgin, married to your Charles B. Balcomb in the Salem MA 1900 Census. Living with them is "niece" Carrie Hutchins.

Do you have any further info regarding Charles B. and his wife Catherine?

Sincerely,

2082. Laurence (Laurie) Howard Balcom was born on 21 Feb 1892 in Halifax, NS, Canada and died on 10 May 1979 in Victoria, BC aged 87.

General Notes: As I (Graeme) have been told the story, Laurie was 21 and working as a truck driver in Portland when he met a girl (I don't know her name) and married her. Shortly after that, Irving was born. Irving was born in 1914, right at the beginning of World War I. He was named Sprott Balcom, after his grandfather. Apparently the stress of married life was hard on Laurie, and he felt some pangs of patriotic pride, because when Irving was still an infant, Laurie announced that he was off to the war. Leaving his wife and baby, he returned to Victoria and enlisted. As a trained driver, he was sent immediately to Europe where he drove transport trucks and ambulances. He was stationed in southern England, Belgium and Northern France. He was discharged in 1919, and returned to Victoria, and his family. However, in the meantime, his wife had evidently resented his abrupt departure where upon she had the marriage annulled, and she married a Mr. Stimpson. The newlyweds then adopted Sprott Balcom II under the name Irving Stimpson. In raising Irving, Mrs. Stimpson apparently went out of her way to persuade Irving that the Balcom's in general and Laurie in particualr were especially bad people. Hence, Irving didn't meet his father again until he was over 20. During the 1940's and 1950's Irving kept a correspondence with Laurie, Zilla and Berta at 1150 Faithful Street, mainly in the form of hand-made Christmas cards (Irving is indeed a talented artist). The first time Graeme and Judy met Irving was in 1972, when, on a trip to Europe with his new wife he dropped in to see us at Meadowlands, in Denmead, England.

Word has been received in Halifax of the death yesterday of Rev. J. H. Balcom at the residence of his son, Neal G. Balcom, 35 Nanepashemet Avenue, Malden, Mass. A native of Nova Scotia and formerly engaged in ministry in this province, Mr. Balcom had many friends here who will be grieved to learn of his death. He was 76 years of age.

After studying at Newton Seminary, he had Baptist pastorates at Baldwinville, Mass. and at North Brookfield and Clementsvale, Nova Scotia. Ill health caused his retirement from the ministry, and he made his home for a long time at Paradise, his birthplace. The latter part of his life was spent with his sons in Malden, Mass., where his wife predeceased him in 1927. He always took a keen interest in his work and friends and in the life about him.

Coming to Halifax on visit shortly after the death Rev. W. A. White pastor of Cornwallis Street Baptist church. Mr. Balcom interested himself in the welfare of that congregation and undertook the pastorate for several months, actively interesting himself in all phases of church activity of that group, and proving highly helpful at a time when such aid was needed. News of the death of Rev. Mr. Balcom will be received with particular regret among the people of the Cornwallis Street Church, who in their period of association with their interim pastor, found in him a loyal friend keenly interested in their welfare.

He leaves four sons, Roy I. Balcom of Halifax, and William F. Balcom, Harold A. Balcom, and Neal G. Balcom, of Malden; also one daughter, Dorothy (Mrs. E.G.L. Wetmore), of Halifax, besides two brothers, Charles Balcom, Lawrencetown and Ernest L. Balcom, Paradise, and two sisters, Mrs. L.P. Shaffner, Middleton, Mrs. Fred Marshall, Florida.

"I was born on the twenty eighth day of February of eighteen seventy. My father's name was Samuel Leonard Balcom. I do not know his age. His father, Samuel Leonard Balcom, was a farmer who lived at Paradise Centre, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia. ...." [He was mistaken about 'Leonard' as this was the firstname of his Mother's Father as noted below.]

"My Mother 's family. Her maiden name was Phoebe Wade. She lived in Granville, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia. Her father's name was Leonard Wade. He was a farmer living in Granville Centre, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia. He had a furniture shop on his farm and in the winter they made furniture which was sold generally in that community. Most of the furniture in my mother's home was made by him and his sons....."

"My father must have been a very fine man as well as a good businessman for he succeeded in accumulating considerable property. At the time of his death in 1875 he was the owner of two good farms clear of debt. And from knowledge I am able to gain was liked by all his neighbors and was a moving spirit in the building of the community....."

"In winter, the Annapolis River, which flowed past my father's farm, was frozen solid. ...."

"Our farm house was about one mile north of the village of Lawrencetown. Our house was very old having been constructed when nails had to be forged by hand. ..."

"About the year 1873 an implement company in Upper Canada began manufacturing a horse drawn mower. My father was the first to purchase one drawn by one horse, and it caused quite a lot of interest among farmers who came to see how it worked which was good. ...."

Mary Ward (Granddaughter) tells me that Ernest D. Balcom returned to NS a couple of times to visit relatives. This would have been about 1940's I think.

Daisy was in Wolfville when she was about 10 years old. She must have attended school and church there, and was also given piano lessons from a professor at Acadia College. Wolfville is known as a college town. In 2 years time, they're in Port Williams. When Bill and I (Helen) visited there, we attended church services with Mom and all the family. We talked with Thomas Curtis who told us a little bit about the Balcom family and remembered well when they moved there in 1912. His Father and Fred Balcom attended school together. This is where Mom talks most about her teen years and being very active in school and other activities. Loved the outdoors and all sports. Played on the only girls basketball team, was in plays, sang in church choir and did duets with her girlfriend Thelma Avis Gates. (1 carry her middle name - Avis). Francis, always called Frank, bought a hotel on the Cornwallis River which is still standing and in use today. It eventually became the home of Fred & Louise Balcom. They all lived here until their deaths and are buried in either Willowbank Cemetery in Wolfville, or Jawbone Cemetery in Canard, also known as Canard Cemetery. (Helen Avis Briggs-Lonnroth)

P.S. We visited Willowbank Cemetery, got information about Balcom family members buried there; found gravestones for most, but none for Frances & Florence Balcom. I have since learned that Francis William Balcom is listed on the back of their daughter's headstone (Mary W. Coleman), so Florence MacGowan and I had the inscription for Florence Armina done when we visited her in 2005. I am waiting for Florence to send me a picture of it.

I lived with my grandmother, Lennie Alvada Balcom O'Brien [1890-1982] almost continuously from three weeks of age, even though my parents lived about 300 yards away. Most of the neighbours knew me as "The little O'Brien girl", although my maiden name is Galbraith. Grammy always went by the name Alvada but everyone called her 'Vada.' The story goes that she was named after a boat. A friend of Frank and Florence was a sea captain and the boat was named after some of his family.
I didn't know Frank had been married to someone before Florence but now some things make sense because Grammy always mentioned an Alonzo.
Also, Frank had a sister, Angelina H. b.1849 married Willard J Oaks,12/12/1866, Nictaux, but didn't live very long. No children that I know of. Willard remarried Emma Munroe,1885.

Charlie enlisted in the Army, Co 1448 (SSN #014-26-3047) on 10/5/1917 at Camp Devens, MA. He served in World War 1 (1917 - 1919) and is commemorated on a memorial tablet on the grounds of the Bolton Public Library along with his brother Leslie. The story told within the family is that even though he and his brother were Quakers, he felt that it was his duty to serve his country. He did not serve in a fighting position - he served in the Caissons, repairing the wagons. He was in France at some time during his service.

He served from 10/5/1917 - 4/5/1919 and was discharged honorably as a Sergeant First Class. He asserted many times over the years that he had been a Private - he had no interest in gaining rank as he did not want to be in the position of ordering others into danger. We can only assume that he was given this promotion of rank to Sergeant at the time of his discharge.

A medical registration card shows that as of 3/22/1919, he was on the U.S.S. George Washington. It states that he had gray eyes and brown hair with a light complexion. He was 27 at the time and listed his next of kin as his mother, Ellen (Balcom) Babcock. His registration number was 166783. He had an infection in his left hand. He was returned to duty the same day with instructions to dress the hand with alcohol and boric acid.

He is buried at Friends Cemetary, Bolton, MA.

Rollin first went to work with his brother Kenny at GearShaper in Springfield, VT. He grew tired of indoor work and went back to Hague, NY where he bought the farm from his father William in 1921.

At age 17, Rollin was shot while hunting according to a 1916 newspaper article in the collection of family papers held by James B. De Larm. The article does not discuss all of the details:

Rollin was bent over checking one of his traps and was struck by a shot that deflected off his hatchet case. Almost immediately another shot went through his shoulder just missing the collar bone, major organs, and any major arteries (a splinter of the collar bone did come out years later). The second shot appeared to be an armor piercing bullet, as it went completely through his shoulder without making a huge exit wound and the bullet came out lower on his back than where it went in (from being bent over). Rollin stuck his finger in the front hole to slow the bleeding, he then walked from where he was shot (in the area of the "Big Notch") up the the store at Graphite where a doctor was called. They transported him to the family farm where the doctor had gone to upon receiving the call. The doctor ran a big needle with a rag soaked in alcohol through the wound several times, without an anesthetic. About a month later Rollin was working in the fields and the wound "opened and drained", another month later the wound was completely healed..

General Notes: Cecil always went by the name ZEKE.

Zeke worked for Firestone in Akron, Ohio. He got homesick and came back to Hague, NY where he lived the rest of his life.

He built his first sawmill on the De Larm family farm using a steam engine he bought in Chestertown, NY. (The mill was located on the side of the mountian near a hunting camp used by the family). He immediately ran into problems with the mill when the inspector informed him that the engine had been in a fire and condemmed. The inspector was not going to allow the mill to operate until Zeke's brother Rollin asked the inspector what could be done since Zeke had put all of his money into the engine. The inspector indicated that the engine could be re-tubed. Zeke and Rollin worked many long days to get the engine ready for inspection and finally got it passed. Zeke operated the mill with the help of numerous people until it burnt down in the late 1920's.

Zeke rebuilt the mill near the origional location using an engine out of a 1918 Pierce Arrow (with wooden spoked wheels).

Zeke later moved the sawmill 2 miles south of the village of Hague where he established his residence. The business thrived when he got a federal contract to supply 2-inch planks to the government during WWII.

Business was so good that he was able to build 13 cabins for rentals. 7 of the cabins were large enough to be used as houses after Zeke passed away. He also built an ice-cream stand on the main road in front of the cabins.

Cecil was killed in an auto accident on Route 9N.

She suffered a stroke three weeks ago. During her long harness track career, Grandma Burright drove more than 200 winners in races throughout the country. After she left the sulky she continued to visit race tracks and was occasionally a timer.

General Notes: Fred, (as he apparently liked to be known, and appears on most legal documents and vital records), lived and farmed in the Argo (Fa) area of York Twp. Carroll County, Illinois. The western portion of the village is located on land that was at one
time part of his farm. He was very civic minded and donated some land to bring industry there, including a small Libby Milk Co. factory. He also subdivided some lots for businesses.

----------------

HISTORICAL NOTE: During 1902 &1903 a railroad spur line was built between Ashdale Junction on the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad just east of Mt Carroll, IL; and Ebner Junction, on the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad,
just south of Thomson, IL. A distance of 15.1 miles. It followed the easy grade of the Johnson Creek valley which broached the high bluffs of the Mississippi River valley just East of Thomson. It was first known as the Ashdale & Thomson Railway,
and later as the Milwaukee-Kansas City Cut Off; a section of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Pacific Railroad. It ran through Argo; and consequently through the East portion of the family farm. Because the railroad company already had a
switch yard near Chicago that was also named Argo, "our" Argo became Argo-Fa. This spur line made Argo-Fa more attractive to economic development, and Frederick P. Kenyon took advantage of this with his offering of land to the Libby Milk Co. For
many years, especially during World War II, it was a busy section of railway. As a young girl, Hallie (Kenyon) Groharing remembers watching the famous Southwest Limited pass through the village. "Ally" Mills, one of the the Southwest Limited
engineers was a personal friend of Nino Kenyon, Fred's son, and blew the whistle with a very distinctive wail as a greeting whenever he passed through. In the early 1950's, with the advent of diesel locomotives and their ability to climb the
steep grades of the route between Mt Carroll and Savanna, the "cut off" was discontinued. Though the tracks themselves are now abandoned, the cuts, fills, and culverts of the railroad bed are still visible in many places. The Libby Milk Company
is also gone, and in it's place is a small company that manufactures rubber bearing pads for heavy machinery. Gone too, is the bustle of a once thriving village, which today is little more than a "wide spot in the road". Though Frederick
certainly had a vision for the future, the dream was not to be. The Kenyon farm was located on the west side of what is now 4980 Argo Fay Road, (yes, the spelling was again changed), just south of the turn it makes about 1-1/2 miles west of
State Route 78. Though the original farmhouse is gone, the home built for Frederick and Mary still stands next to what was known for years as "Spencer's Store".



The death of Frederick P. Kenyon was noted in two newspaper articles from the Mt. Carroll Mirror-Democrat. Though the date of his death is only alluded to by his age, it was on the first Sunday of February, 1936. Perhaps February 1st or 2nd.

The first of the two articles is headlined; "FRED Kenyon, 81, ARGO-FA CITIZEN PASSED AWAY SUNDAY; SERVICES HELD TUESDAY", and subbed; "Lived Entire Life In And Near Argo-Fa; Was Active Community Booster".

"Fred Kenyon, 81, of Argo-Fa, known as the Grand Old Man of Argo-Fa, passed away Sunday at his home following a brief illness, although his health had been declining for several months.

Fred Kenyon, during many, many years, represented the better interest of Argo-Fa. Born in 1854 and living in and near Argo-Fa for the entire period of his life, he was associated with all worthwhile enterprises.

Mr. Kenyon was associated with the old Lyceum meeting at the Grange Hall at Ideal, (a small village southeast of Argo-Fa), as chairman; he was a member of the Carroll county Fair Board, and served as chairman of the horse division for many years;
he took an active part in bringing the condensary to Argo-Fa, selling them the land for the site, as well as selling lots for home builders. He also served as highway commissioner of York Township, and at all times took a progressive stand in the
interests of Argo-Fa and York township.



Obituary

Fred Kenyon, son of Freeman and Elizabeth Atherton Kenyon, was born June 24, 1854 near Argo-Fa on what is now known as the Chas. Sack farm, and passed away at his home in Argo-Fa Sunday evening at 10:15 at the advanced age of 81 years, 7 months
and 8 days.

He has lived all his life in this and the Ideal vicinity. On January 1, 1876 he was married to Miss Mary R. Gill. To this union two sons were born, Lloyd of Mt Carroll and Nino who resides on the home farm.

On July 7,1924, Mrs. Kenyon passed away. After her death he continued to reside in his little home near his son, Nino, where he was tenderly cared for up to the time of his death.

Mr. Kenyon was very active in the affairs of his community. He served as highway commissioner for three terms; was superintendent of the horse division of the Carroll County Fair association during its existence and also served as president of
the Argo Farmers' Club.

He leaves to mourn his passing his two sons, Lloyd and Nino, one grandson, Harold Kenyon of Argo-Fa, five granddaughters, Mrs Hallie Groharing of Morrison, Mrs. Hazel Leavens of Mt. Carroll, Helen and Janet at home, Mrs. Irma Kruse (ed. note: this
is Lloyd's daughter) of Ideal and four great grandchildren. Also one sister, Mrs. Lucy Rhodes of Garner, Ia., three brothers, Casper of Harvard, Neb., Seth of Austin, Minn., and Will of Garner, Ia. Besides a number of nieces and nephews, and a
host of friends."

(Inserted at this point in the obituary was a poem entitled "In Memoriam". Typical for the time period.)

"Funeral services for the late Fred P. Kenyon were held Tuesday afternoon at 1:30at the home and 2 o'clock at the Methodist church at Argo-Fa with the Rev. G. T. Nesmith officiating.

Mrs. Madge Bower sang "There is No Night There" and "Peace I Leave With You" accompanied by Mrs. Ruby Schmaling at the piano.

Pallbearers were Cecil Mitchell, Don Carpenter, Wilbur Williams, Ned Turner, Raymond Carroll and George Hicks.

Burial was in the family lot at Argo-Fa."



The second article reads as follows:

"In the passing of Fred Kenyon, this section loses an ardent supporter, for it was largely by his effort the local condensary was built here, on land given by him and he remarked when a fund was demanded by the Libby Co., "If there is no other
way, I'll pay it all, rather than lose the plant". Then in the period from his 75th to 80th birthday, he often remarked , he wished they would hurry and construct route 171 so he could see how it looked before his passing, but that wish was not
granted. For many years he was often referred to as Mayor Kenyon because of his much interest in local affairs. Thus another member of the old citizens passes on, and not many are left, that were responsible for the cooperation that caused the
building of the village of Argo-Fa."

Noted events in his life were:

1. Occupation: Farmer, Entrepenuer.

2. Religion: P.

Frederick married Mary Rebecca "Mollie" Gill on 1 Jan 1876 in MT Carroll, Carroll Co, IL. Mary was born on 30 Jun 1853 near Scotland, Franklin Co, PA, died on 7 Jul 1924 in Argo-Fa, York Twp, Carroll Co, IL aged 71, and was buried on 10 Jul 1924 in Upper York Cem, York Twp, Carroll Co, IL.

General Notes: At the age of 10, "Mollie" came from Pennsylvannia to Carroll County, IL with her parents. Mollie remembered the Civil War battle at Chambersburg, and spoke of it to her grandchildren.

She kept a record of her family in a Bible given to her for Christmas in1902 by Mary Elizabeth Boyd and Bertha King, school teachers who were boarding with she and husband Fred. This Bible is now in the posession of Richard Boyd Groharing,
Mollie's great grandson.

Mary E. Boyd married her son Nino in 1906. Mollie was related to her daughter-in-law Mary Elizabeth Boyd through their Sharp lineage.

Mollie received her education in the early pioneer schools of Carroll County, and later was a school teacher for many years. She was an earnest worker in the Argo Methodist Church, and for many years was a Sunday School teacher.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: One must study the relationships of the Sharp and Boyd families to appreciate the communications they maintained as they migrated to the West. There is no doubt that Mary Elizabeth Boyd was brought to Carroll County IL to teach
school by her relatives.

Noted events in her life were:

1. Occupation: School Teacher.
