140	Family legend has both John Carl and Louisa arriving (separately) in 1867, and being married in 1872. No supporting documentation has ever been found. In September 2009, I located his 1889 passport application that verified his immigration information. He traveled on the Westphalia from Hamburg. In the passport application, John says he immigrated on or about 28 Aug 1867. The Westphalia wasn't launched until 1868. There is a passenger listing on the maiden voyage arriving 28 Sep 1868 for Johann Müller, age 22. I think that's the right person.	MUELLER, John Charles (I21)

176	Harold Mueller originally recorded a DOB of "about 1755." This can't be correct, as the only two children who survived the Fort Seybert massacre were Mary and Adam.

That puts Michael Jr's birth between 1761 and 1768.	MALLOW, Michael (I1464)
177	Harold's Oct 1940 draft card lists her as his wife. She's also listed as his wife in the 1940 census.

189	Her death certificate reports 1863. The 1880 US Census gives her age as 18 at the census, suggesting a year of birth of 1862. But her husband was charged over falsely swearing as to her age when they married in 1880, so the 1863 is more likely correct. Her tombstone shows 1862.	GONZALES, Julia (I1915)

The informant for the death certificate was Frank Weethee, but there is no information as to his relationship to Hannah.	VAN SICKLE, Hannah (I965)

I'm not sure the dates on the SSA note will match up to previous marriages, but the names give research clues.	WILSON, Merle (I1821)
196	Hillery Whittington had married Laura Mae McCall, daughter of Samuel James McCall and Dorothy Caroline Curry. Laura Mae was born in Mercer County, Pennsylvania in 1875. I, Howard Barnhart, received a copy of the Vandalla Historical Society magazine last month. The feature article was on the Courtney contract to cut 35000 acres of timber in Putnam County, West Virginia. The contract was dated 1890. Mr. Courtney lived in Mercer County, Pennsylvania. He was a neighbor of Samuel's, and sure enough Sylvan (Whittington) tells me, this is the reason Samuel went to West Virginia in 1890. He took with him five teams of draft horses and five of his sons. This is the reason his sons became scattered, two in Ohio, one in West Virginia and others returning to Butler 1894/5 when the contract was finished. At the time they were in West Virginia, Dorothy Caroline (Curry) Samuel's wife, was the camp cook at one of the camps, her daughter was a cooks helper, and since Hillery lived in this area, he was a timber cutter. Hence they met and married. He also showed me a watch he had, given to him by his grandmother, Dorothy Caroline, at age 30 with quite a story, which probably has quite a bit of truth in it. It is an Illinois Railroad watch, made in Springfield, Illinois, and inside the back cover is six RR inspection marks, or time inspection marks placed by a railroad inspector when working for a railroad. Dorothy Caroline was one of six teenagers (she was born 1843) who was canvassing for Abraham Lincoln. (all girls) At one time, they were working in a city, when a carnival or small circus came to location. The girls ask Lincoln for the afternoon and evening off to attend the event. He refused, advising them they must continue their canvassing task, but that he would remember this event. After the election, he came with six of these watches and presented a watch to each girl. Removing the cover, or rear, the name "A Lincoln" is engraved on the back plate just above the serial number, and watch makers name. Just near the rim is the six RR inspection marks. In the center of the back is the initials "E J C" put in by hand. Since Dorothy Caroline's father was David Curry, and she had no brothers with such initials, the watch may have been carried by a nephew. She had a John and a James Curry nephews. Written by: Howard Barnhart (Son of Chalmer Dale Barnhart & Ada Mae Whittington Barnhart)	MCCALL, Samuel James (I517)
197	His death certificate reports the place of death as "Out of State Hospital;" it was likely a Parkersburg, WV hospital.	BARNETT, Nile O (I839)
198	His mother was an Indian captive at the time, having been captured during the Fort Seybert Massacre in April 1758. She apparently did not know she was pregnant at the time. There is a claim he was born near modern-day Portsmouth. According to a 1935 Lima News article, he was taken "to a camp on the west side of the Scioto river, but north of the Ohio river and opposite of where Portsmouth is now located." But in his application for a Revolutionary War Pension, Henry claimed he was born "somewhere on the Mississippi River in 1759." His date of birth is calculated from his date of death and age as listed on his headstone. Despite claims elsewhere, yDNA analysis has shown no possible Native American paternity for Henry.	MALLOW, Henry (I1454)
199	His name is spelled "Garritson" in this entry, and for the next 3 years.	GARRISON, Charles Emory (I257)
200	His obituary also mentions half-brothers Richard and David Wallace, as well as membership in Humboldt Masons Lodge. He was a retired machine operator at Lattimer-Stevens. 2/3/2004: Found the following message posted: NAME: Sheryl Napier EMAIL: snapier6@yahoo.com DATE: Dec 30 1999 QRYTEXT: Looking for Arthur Garrison.

Family legend has both John Carl and Louisa arriving (separately) in 1867, and being married in 1872. No supporting documentation has ever been found.

In September 2009, I located his 1889 passport application that verified his immigration information. He traveled on the Westphalia from Hamburg.

In the passport application, John says he immigrated on or about 28 Aug 1867. The Westphalia wasn't launched until 1868. There is a passenger listing on the maiden voyage arriving 28 Sep 1868 for Johann Müller, age 22. I think that's the right person.

From: 1909 History of Butler County, pg. 611 - Allen McCall was born about 1807 in Butler County, Pennsylvania. He died in 1867. Allen married Martha Turk of Brady Twp., Butler Co., Pa., a daughter of William Turk.
.
Allen & Martha McCall were members of Muddy Creek Presbyterian Church. His father, Samuel McCall, was one of the organizers of the church in 1803.

The original farm that had belonged to Samuel McCall eventually belonged to Allen. In 1846 the other brothers and sisters relinquished their claims to their brothers, Samuel McCall, Jr. and Allen McCall. Samuel McCall, Jr. died in 1850 leaving the farm to Allen and his descendants.
Two families of his descendants live there today. Mary McCall Stamm and Emily McCall, widow of Howard McCall..

Allen McCall is buried in Muddy Creek U.P. Church Cemetery, Butler County, Pennsylvania as are most of their children.

FURMAN STEWART, a successful farmer of Washington Township, who is carrying on operations on an excellent tract of 120 acres, was born on his present property in Washington Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, January 27, 1876, and is a son of William C. and Mary (Stanley) Stewart.
William M. Stewart, the grandfather of Furman, married Rebecca Jane McCall, who was a daughter of Samuel McCall, of Donegal Township, and they had the following children: Samuel M., died in young manhood; John, died when young; Nancy Jane, deceased; William C.; Anna Eliza, married Reuben Heckathorn, of Venango County; Wilson McCall married (first) Sarah Day, daughter of John Day, and (second), Mary Johnce, daughter of Hiram Johnce; and Louisa M., maried Joseph Campbell, of Concord Township.
William C. Stewart was married to Mary Stanley, who was a daughter of Andrew Stanley, of Lawrence County. Mr. Stanley married Elizabeth Heckathorn, daughter of John Heckathorn, a cabinet maker, and they had the following children: John, married Barbara C. Fox, daughter of Michael Fox; Sarah, married Peter Young, of Slippery Rock Township, Lawrence County; Elizabeth, married Mark Mencer, of Indiana County; Ann, married Milton L. McCormick, of Slippery Rock Township; Mary; Jane, who married George Smith of Slippery Rock Township, died in Lawrence County, Pennsyvlania; Andrew, married Isabella Wood, daughter of Gidean Wood of Lawrence County; Rachel; and Cephas, who married Elizabeth Hunt, daughter of James Hunt of Lawrence County. The children born to William C. and Mary (Stanley) Stewart were: Elizabeth Jane, residing on the homestead; William A., married Cora A. McCoy, daughter of Lewis McCoy, of Grove City, Mercer County; Lena, married A. M. Christy, of Washington Township; Mary Eva, married L. M. Dickey, of Butler; John S., married Lydia Ross, daughter of John Ross of Cherry Township, and resides at Butler; and Furman. Both William C. Stewart and Andrew Stanley offered their services in their country's defense during the Civil War, but the former was refused on account of defective teeth after having gone as far as Pittsburg. Mr. Stanley served in the struggle, however, and was never wounded, although he had a narrow escape from injury at Pittsburgh Landing, his cap being shot from his head while he was eating breakfast.

Harold Mueller originally recorded a DOB of "about 1755." This can't be correct, as the only two children who survived the Fort Seybert massacre were Mary and Adam. There were three others who "died among the Indians," though their names are lost to history.

Margaret (Margretha) returned to Virginia in the summer of 1761 and probably died in early 1768. That puts Michael Jr's birth between 1761 and 1768.

MALLOW, Michael (I1464)

Harold's Oct 1940 draft card lists her as his wife. She's also listed as his wife in the 1940 census. A preliminary search regarding Esther suggests she was married prior to marrying Harold, possibly to John L Caughlin (see 1930 Galveston Census).

Hazel McCall Ellis recalls that a Nelson McCandless used to visit them in Ohio. He lived in Butler, PA. He had a fine Jordan Touring Car, burgandy, with a black top....Quite a car for it's day.
Nelson lived and spent his last days in Scioto County, Ohio, very near the McCall families. There was a lot of timber on his place. It is not known if his property was in his family or if he had purchased it himself.
Nelson is buried in Remby Cemetery, Ohio, near the parents of Hazel.

Her death certificate reports 1863. The 1880 US Census gives her age as 18 at the census, suggesting a year of birth of 1862. But her husband was charged over falsely swearing as to her age when they married in 1880, so the 1863 is more likely correct. Her tombstone shows 1862.

She's listed as "Mrs. Merle Wagner" on her 1941 marriage license to William Fay. I'm not sure the dates on the SSA note will match up to previous marriages, but the names give research clues.

Hillery Whittington had married Laura Mae McCall, daughter of Samuel James McCall and Dorothy Caroline Curry. Laura Mae was born in Mercer County, Pennsylvania in 1875.

I, Howard Barnhart, received a copy of the Vandalla Historical Society magazine last month. The feature article was on the Courtney contract to cut 35000 acres of timber in Putnam County, West Virginia. The contract was dated 1890. Mr. Courtney lived in Mercer County, Pennsylvania. He was a neighbor of Samuel's, and sure enough Sylvan (Whittington) tells me, this is the reason Samuel went to West Virginia in 1890. He took with him five teams of draft horses and five of his sons. This is the reason his sons became scattered, two in Ohio, one in West Virginia and others returning to Butler 1894/5 when the contract was finished. At the time they were in West Virginia, Dorothy Caroline (Curry) Samuel's wife, was the camp cook at one of the camps, her daughter was a cooks helper, and since Hillery lived in this area, he was a timber cutter. Hence they met and married.

He also showed me a watch he had, given to him by his grandmother, Dorothy Caroline, at age 30 with quite a story, which probably has quite a bit of truth in it. It is an Illinois Railroad watch, made in Springfield, Illinois, and inside the back cover is six RR inspection marks, or time inspection marks placed by a railroad inspector when working for a railroad. Dorothy Caroline was one of six teenagers (she was born 1843) who was canvassing for Abraham Lincoln. (all girls) At one time, they were working in a city, when a carnival or small circus came to location. The girls ask Lincoln for the afternoon and evening off to attend the event. He refused, advising them they must continue their canvassing task, but that he would remember this event. After the election, he came with six of these watches and presented a watch to each girl. Removing the cover, or rear, the name "A Lincoln" is engraved on the back plate just above the serial number, and watch makers name. Just near the rim is the six RR inspection marks. In the center of the back is the initials "E J C" put in by hand. Since Dorothy Caroline's father was David Curry, and she had no brothers with such initials, the watch may have been carried by a nephew. She had a John and a James Curry nephews.

His mother was an Indian captive at the time, having been captured during the Fort Seybert Massacre in April 1758. She apparently did not know she was pregnant at the time. There is a claim he was born near modern-day Portsmouth. According to a 1935 Lima News article, he was taken "to a camp on the west side of the Scioto river, but north of the Ohio river and opposite of where Portsmouth is now located." But in his application for a Revolutionary War Pension, Henry claimed he was born "somewhere on the Mississippi River in 1759."

His date of birth is calculated from his date of death and age as listed on his headstone.

Despite claims elsewhere, yDNA analysis has shown no possible Native American paternity for Henry.
