2 John died under particularly unfortunate and sad conditions. He was serving in the Air Force in the Philippines during World War II. The war had ended and he like thousands of others was waiting to be shipped home when he died in an accidental crash of a crop dusting plane. It is remembered that his mother Sabra had a particularly difficult time with this tragedy, some say she never got over the loss. KAY, John H. (I1539)

11 "L. T. Dickason, the present mayor of the city of Danville, is a native of Marion County, Ohio, where most of his early life was spent. In 1861 he entered the Federal Army. In the war of 1861-1865, enlisting in Company H, 4th Ohio, three months service. He participated in many of the heavy battles, being engaged at Shiloh, Perryville, Stone River, the siege of Corinth, and Battle of Chickamauga, being severely wounded in this last named engagement; on account of which he was discharged from further service, though he had served nearly his full term of enlistment. In 1867 he came to Vermillion County, where he has since resided, being one among the most active business men of the county. For a time he was engaged in buying and shipping grain, being located at Fairmont. Moving from there to Danville, he soon became very popular politically and is now enjoying his "third term" of Mayorship. He is also very extensively engaged in the coal and timber trade, in company with Charles L. English. They give in employment to about four hundred men, their timber contracts with the different railroad companies amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars per year and extending over several states . . . ."

Among some of the other and specific accomplisments of Livingston T. Dickason was to organize the "Danville Guards" in February, 1876, and of which he was captain.

In 1882 during one of his terms as mayor, he founded the Danville Public Library, and in 1895 he was one of the three trustrees of the Soldiers and Sailors Home at Quincy, Illinois. One of his principal ventures was the building of a large amount of the mileage of the Monon Route Railroad.

In his declining years Livingston T. Dickason moved from Danville to a new and quite pretentious home that he built in the then newly developed suburban area in South Chicago. The home is no longer standing.

41 A website (2007) listing those buried in Forest Hill Cemetery, East Derry, Rockinghm Co., NH; shows a John Barr, d. July, 9. 1731 at age 82. This is undoubtedly the John Barr who actually died in 1751 and the tombstone death date must have been incorrectly read or transcribed. Also transcribed on this website for this cemetery are a Jane Barr and Mary Barr, both transcribed as having died, November 16, 1737 at age 66. Curiously the website lists "Mary" as having been John Barr's wife, even though John's tombstone says "Jane his wife." In addition there is an additional Mary Barr, transcribed as having died June 19, 1750, and as the wife of Samuel Barr. Because the listings on this website were taken from transcriptions made several years old, is not known exactly how many Barr's are in this cemetery or if the two Marys are unintended duplicates. Furthermore, the accuracy of these listing nor the legibility of the gravestones themselves is not known. A personal inspection may help with this issue. BARR, John (I1049)
 
42 A collection of Jean's papers, including a personal diary of her experiences as a law clerk at the Nuremberg Trials and her activities with the Fellowship for Reconciliation following the war can be found in the Earlham College Friends Collection archive: https://archives.earlham.edu/?p=collections/controlcard&id=613. McGrew, Jean Elizabeth (I7271)
 
43 A Henry Eugene Wright (born 12 Mar 1846) appears on page 3 of the Wright family bible [S80]. Nothing is known of this child, including his parents. The name appears immeadiately after a list of Owen and his siblings (the children of David and Elizabeth Wright) and at the beginig of the children of Owen and Mary (Garber) Wright, which (with the exception of Edward Riley - son of Mary (Owen's sister) and Isaac Riley) are the only children of this generation listed in this bible.

It can be reasonably speculated that this child (Henry Eugene Wright) may be the child of an early (and unknown) marriage of Owen. Owen's marriage to Mary Garber was not until 1852 when Owen was past 40 years old, so an earlier marriage is possible, perhaps expected.

This Henry Eugene Wright's whereabouts (apart from the bible entry) is completely unknown, or at least yet discovered.  
WRIGHT, Henry Eugene (I5286)

46 A significant American historian, Professor at Johns Hopkins, Brown, and the University of Chicago, was director (1905-28) of the department of historical research of the Carnegie Institution, Washington, D.C., and from 1928 to his death he was chief of the division of manuscripts in the Library of Congress and is often credited as the 'father' of what is now the United States National Archives. As chairman of the committee of management of the Dictionary of American Biography he was largely responsible for the inauguration and completion of that monumental work. In these and other undertakings, Jameson exercised much influence in American historical scholarship. He wrote The History of Historical Writing in America (1891) and The American Revolution Considered as a Social Movement (1926) and edited Correspondence of John C. Calhoun (1900, repr. 1969). Further here.

- "Willem Usselinx, Founder of the Dutch and Swedish West India Companies", 1887
- "Dictionary of United States History", 1894
- "Narratives of New Netherland, 1609 - 1664", 1909
