He was 99. Fred was born in the North Beach neighborhood of San Francisco in an apartment, upstairs from Figoni's Hardware to Fulvio and Domenica Giari on February 5, 1913. A few years later his family moved to Fairfax, then to San Rafael. He met his wife of 55 years, Maygene, while attending Stanford University in 1939. Fred and Maygene made their home in Los Angeles, moving to Pasadena in 1957. Fred had many interests and careers. He worked as a bicycle mechanic, grocery store clerk, draftsman, NBC page, and merchant seaman. After college, he worked as a salesman for Bohemian Distributing in Los Angeles and New York. In 1947, he changed careers again, working as a personnel manager at the Southern California Gas Company. In 1959 he moved on to Tidewater Oil company, and finished his professional working life as a manager of supervisory training and development at Phillips Petroleum in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, where he retired in 1978. Upon retirement Fred and Maygene returned to their home in Pasadena. At age 74, Fred obtained his contractor's license, and spent his retirement fixing up his home, his children's homes, and various rental property. He did volunteer work at the Convalescent Aid Society in Pasadena, where he helped rebuild the office and warehouse. He enjoyed having "fix-it" projects, and maintained lasting friendships with hardware store owners and members of the building trades. Fred leaves a large circle of friends, co-workers, and family. He will be remembered as a loyal friend, a mentor and confidant, and a cheerleader and supporter for his loved ones. His wife Maygene predeceased him in 2003. He is survived by his daughter Helen Campbell [husband John] of Oakland, his son Rick [wife Sue] of Alamo, his brothers John Giari and Joe Giari of Novato, 6 grandchildren, 5 great-grandchildren, his dear friend Katherine [Tash] Livingston, as well as many beloved nieces, nephews, and cousins. A memorial was held on May 12 in Pasadena, and a family celebration of life will be held in Novato on June 9 at his brother's home. The family wishes to gratefully acknowledge the wonderful care and kindness of Yesika Benitez, Fred's caregiver. Her compassion and consideration enabled Fred to live at the home he loved with independence, safety, and dignity. Memorial contributions can be made to the American Civil Liberties Union or to the Convalescent Aid Society in Pasadena. Published in Pasadena Star-News on May 27, 2012 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm Really Rather Fond of You by Fred Giari I am 97 years old, waking up each day happy to be alive, looking around for teachable moments, and always remembering theres more to life than just brushing my teeth. Born above Figonis hardware store in North Beach of San Francisco in 1913, I grew up playing at the corner of Columbus and Broadway, with all the older Italian women standing around criticizing me and all the children. Thats my boy. He is a cockroach was the kind of thing they would say. My family immigrated from Italy. Years later, my wife Maygene and I made a pilgrimage back to my mothers home town high up in the hill country. Every bit of the town seemed to be made from concrete with no facing materials, a very hard and poor environment. It was on this trip that we learned of the tradition of children in rural Italy assigned the task of washing the bodies when friends and relatives died. It all seemed so natural in that environment. How different things are now. Maygene and I had an extraordinary life together. I was always the talkative one, Maygene more reflective. One evening, 40 years into our marriage, while we were enjoying that special time in the evening when the sun sets, I got up and brought Maygene her favorite cocktail. She was busy grading English papers and barely looked up. Moments later, there was a small note dropped on my lap, with her perfect penmanship: You know I am really rather fond of you. M. Maygene always had a plan and knew what she wanted. In life and in death. As we got older, and had a few health bumps along the way, she made her end-of-life wishes clear, and not only to me. She sent a copy of her advance directives with a cover letter to the president of the local hospital! She wanted no extreme measures. She was brave in life and brave in death. One Sunday morning at home, Maygene was struck with pain and a jolt. Not missing a beat, not changing from her pink nightgown, she asked me to drive her to the hospital. On the way, we held hands. We shared the ride in silence and in acceptance. As soon as we arrived at the hospital, it was a noisy jumble with medical professionals helping us into the emergency room. The doctors examined Maygene and offered treatment, which she refused. They then came to ask me what I wanted to do. I fought to be as brave as Maygene and responded that I respected her wishes. I sat next to Maygene, holding hands silently, and she died peacefully. I miss Maygene every day. And she remains a role model for me to be brave in life. And brave in death. https://www.deathwise.org/conversations/i%E2%80%99m-really-rather-fond-of-you/ | Giari, Fred Augustus (I34554069553)

The family name was usually spelled "Matthews" but Charles apparently preferred to use the spelling "Mathews". On 21 February 1865, during the Civil War, at age 16, Charles enlisted as a Drummer in Company "F", 12th Maine Infantry Volunteers and was discharged 3 March 1866 at the close of the war. He returned to Boothbay as resumed his life as a seaman. Two years later, on 17 October 1868, Charles enlisted for five years in Company "L", 5th Cavalry, U.S. Army, at Boston, Massachusetts, and served in Battery "G", 4th U.S. Artillery until he was discharged 24 October 1873. At his October 1868 enlistment, Charles was described as being 21 years old, born in Boothbay, Maine, and employed as a seaman. He was also described as being 5' 7" tall with blue eyes, light hair and a light complexion. On 7 July 1873, while still serving in Company "L", Fifth Cavalry Regiment, Charles was promoted to Sergeant. On 15 January 1881, Charles was promoted to First Sergeant in Company "C" of the Instruction Regiment of the General Mounted Service, 8th Cavalry, at Jefferson Barracks, Missouri. He served at Jefferson Barracks for 10 years 8 months and 16 days, re-enlisting on 13 February 1884 and 13 February 1889, until he was finally discharged 28 October 1889 for disability. On 28 September 1880, while serving at Jefferson Barracks, at age 31, Charles married 20 year old Mary Delaney of Saint Louis, Missouri. Around 1892, after his retirement from military service, Charles and Mary moved to Nashville, Tennessee, where there youngest son, George, was born. Their three older children, Margaret (Maggie), Harry and Mabel, were all born in Saint Louis. In the 1900 census Charles was listed as being employed as a railway motorman in Nashville, Tennessee. According to the 1910 census, the family was still living in Nashville and Charles was employed as a night watchman. Their two daughters had married local boys from Nashville. Oldest son Harry had apparently moved to New York where he was employed in the bakery business. September 1917 Charles was appointed Superintendent of the National Cemetery at Nashville, Tennessee. On 17 January 1918, he was transferred to the Keokuk National Cemetery in Keokuk, Iowa, where he served as Supervisor until his retirement on 31 May 1921. The 1930 census showed Charles as a widower living with his oldest daughter, Maggie Belk, and her family in Nashville. Maggie's husband, Joseph Belk, was the captain of a river barge tow boat. During his retirement, Charles took up the hobby of wood carving and produced many ship models and other finely carved items. Photos exist of Charles with some of his ship models. Charles also carved a fancy letter opener for his daughter Maggie and an exact replica of a straight razor for son-in-law Joe Belk. Charles died 2 September 1940 at the home of his daughter Margaret in Nashville, Davidson County, Tennessee, and was buried in Spring Hill Cemetery in Nashville. Charles' possessions included several military documents as well as a beaded Indian pouch and two pairs of beaded Indian moccasins that were made for him and his son Harry in 1892 by an Indian Scout at Jefferson Barracks (these details are inscribed on the sole of one of Harry's small moccasins). These items, along with the carved letter opener and razor mentioned above, were passed along to Joe and Maggie Belk's adopted son, Ernest Everett Belk. These items are destined to be displayed in the Missouri Civil War Museum at Jackson Barracks. Charles' grandson, Ernest Belk, also had an exciting military career. He enlisted in the U.S. Navy on 24 November 1941, shortly before the attack at Pearl Harbor, and fought in both the European and Pacific campaigns, including the Invasion of Sicily, the Normandy Invasion and the Invasion of Okinawa. He also saw action in the Korean War and the Vietnam War. He retired in 1975 as a highly decorated Master Chief (HTCM). In June 2010, military documents and personal items related to Charles Mathews, which were passed down to his grandson Ernest Belk, were all donated to the Missouri Civil War Museum in St. Louis, Missouri, to be included in their exhibit on the Jefferson Barracks Historic Site.

He "slipped the surly bonds of earth" and headed for his final resting place on July 24, 2004, dying peacefully at the age of 92 in Prescott, Ariz. Born in Nevada City, Nev. on Feb. 29, 1912, he dreamed of being a pilot and worked in mines as a young man to finance that dream. After receiving his early training flying biplanes in Canada in the 1930s, he became an instructor and went on to a 30-year career in aviation that included stints with Mid-Continent, Pacific Northern Airlines, Southwest Airlines, Bonanza Airlines and Hughes Air West, from which he retired in 1972 with a reputation as the consummate pilot. Highlights included serving as a test pilot at the Douglas Aircraft plant in Santa Monica, Calif. during World War II, and serving as the inaugural Chief Divisional Pilot for Bonanza Airlines in Phoenix. While there he was involved in transitioning the airline to F-27 turbo props, which brought a new era of commercial aviation to Ariz. He also was a member of Bonanza's first class to complete training on the DC-9, his favorite, and a longtime member of Quiet Birdman (QB) and the North East Phoenix Varmint & Big Game Hunter & Fisherman's Association. His children will remember him as an avid outdoorsman and fine role model who played the harmonica, wrote endearing poems, took them on countless family outings, and loved cocker spaniels and exploring the Pacific Northwest.

NEAL Retired June 01,1964 Died July 15,1981 Haskell E. Neal was born in Louisville, Ill., in 1904,and moved to Hoopeston, Ill., in 1921. He displayed an early interest in radio communications, completing his first homemade receiver when he was only 12 years old. His inclinations led him to enlist in the Army Air Corps at Scott Field, Ill., March 13, 1928. Almost from the moment of his enlistment he became involved in the development of military communications. As an enlisted man, he attended service schools in both the Air Corps and the Signal Corps, and also the RCA Resident School in New York in 1932. His extensive 14 year background of military experience, specializing in the growing field of communications, qualified the then Master Sergeant Neal for elevation to second lieutenant May 5, 1942. As a commissioned officer he was first assigned to the 13th Communications Squadron, a task organization formed at Morrison Field, Fla., to provide communications support for planned invasion and military operations in North Africa. He served as commanding officer of the 13th Communications Squadron, Africa, and as regional control officer of the 13th Airways Communications Region from May 4, 1942 until Aug. 31, 1943. Accepting new communications responsibilities at a pace commensurate with the speed of the whirlwind African campaign, he was named area control officer for all of Africa and the Middle East Sept. 1, 1943. He held this position until Dec. 13, 1944. His promotions during wartime paralleled the growth of his responsibilities. He was promoted to first lieutenant May 11, 1942, six days after he was commissioned. He skipped the grade of captain completely, was promoted to major June 6, 1942, to lieutenant colonel Feb. 25, 1943, and to colonel Aug. 28, 1944. After the communications build-up necessary to the North African campaign was completed, Colonel Neal became commander of the 3rd AACS Wing at Elmendorf Field, Alaska, Dec. 14, 1944. He received the additional duty of air communications officer for Alaska Feb. 4, 1945. In this capacity, he reported directly to the chief of staff, U.S. Air Force, who was, at that time, General H.H. ("Hap") Arnold. After serving in Headquarters AACS as assistant chief of staff; operations, training and requirements from May 1945 until August 1947, Colonel Neal was selected to attend the Air Command and Staff School at Maxwell Field, Ala. Upon graduation from the Air Command and Staff School, he was assigned as director of communications and electronics for the Caribbean Air Command. Returning to the United States in January 1950, Colonel Neal entered the Armed Forces Staff College at Norfolk, Va., from which he graduated in July 1950. He was named assistant director of communications and electronics, Continental Air Command in August 1950; and, when Air Defense Command and Tactical Air Command were reborn out of the reorganization of CONAC, he was named director of communications and electronics for the Air Defense Command. In this capacity, he was associated with the build-up of Air Defense Command from an organization embracing only two fighter wings and less than a score of active AC&W sites to the modern fighting force charged with responsibility for the air defense of the North American Continent. As director of communications and electronics, he was the whip behind the development of a modern surveillance and detection system that grew from a jury rigged "lash-up" expedient to an integrated AC&W system composed of hundreds of permanent radar stations, including the Pine Tree Line, the seaward extension of radar by picket ships, Texas Towers, airborne "early warning" aircraft, and the Distant Early Warning (DEW) Line. On July 11, 1955, Colonel Neal was promoted to brigadier general. Later, in recognition of his outstanding service to the nation through his assignment with Air Defense Command, General Neal was awarded the oak leaf cluster to the Legion of Merit for duty performed between 1951 and 1957. In addition to his two Legions of Merit, General Neal has also been awarded the Commendation Ribbon. From July 8, 1957 to March 9, 1959 General Neal was assigned as commander, 1807th AACS Wing, Bitburg, Germany. Soon after his arrival, the 1807th was redesignated as the European-African Middle Eastern AACS area with its headquarters transferred to Weisbaden, Germany. On March 10,1959 General Neal was designated commander of the newly formed Ground Electronics Engineering-Installation Agency with Headquarters at Griffiss Air Force Base, N.Y. Under his direction, GEEIA has grown from a widely separated heterogeneous group of individuals to a modern, unified agency charged with the engineering and installation of the Air Forces entire ground communication systems and facilities. Under his leadership GEEIA achieved the maturity of a "can do" organization. This includes an active role in all phases of ground electronics from the massive, integrated installation of communications at each Atlas, Titan and Minuteman missile site, to the down range tracking facilities of the Atlantic Missile Test Range, the base wire and telephone development schedules at each Air Force installation and integral participation on each of the "L" systems such as Sage and Aircom.

| 21 | Obituary - On October 11, 2017 at 7:13 pm, Jo Anna Miller went to be with her Lord. She was preceded in death by her parents, Ernest Joseph Hamblin (Papa Joe) and Betty Lou Fugitt. She is survived by her husband, Tim Miller; her sister, Jeannie Schenk; her two daughters and their spouses, Wendy and Matt Eytchison, and Hattie Miller and Steve Ward; and her four grandchildren, Joey and Grayson Eytchison, and Molly and Sadie Christensen. Jo was a woman that understood love on a level much deeper than simply kindness and affection. Not to say that there wasn't an abundance of both of those things. But for those that she loved, which appears to have been in the thousands, her love was brave enough to call out and provide what was needed, not just what was wanted. But to be clear, this woman was more than just loving and nurturing, she was extraordinarily intelligent. Her mind was constantly gathering and processing information from all kinds of sources. I remember when I was little we would go to the library and she would bring home 7 - 10 books. The topics ranged from psychology, fictional entertainment, politics, and medicine and so on. And seven days later she was done and ready to check out more books. Sometimes I wondered if her mind should have been put to bigger use, to serve this world in a bigger capacity. Her father, affectionately called Papa Joe, always thought that she should have been president. As much as I would have loved to see how she would lead a country and how good it would be for everyone, in the last few days it has become clear to me that her mind and her love served this world more than a president could. Matthew, a disciple of Jesus, quotes Him saying to do merciful deeds without anyone knowing. It is clear that my mom served and loved people from her heart and not for any reward of praise. I believe she did this because she understood loss. I hope that all of us who have been touched by her and feel the great loss of losing her will honor her by loving each other and meeting each other's needs. Please join us to celebrate her life on Sunday, October 22nd at 1pm at The Views RV Park, located at 24990 Hwy 184. We will be serving spaghetti lunch in honor of the countless spaghetti lunches she fed her family and friends every Sunday after church. | Hamblin, Jo Anna (I34554068834)

Dye, who had become thoroughly tainted during hsi captivity, began to use his influence to persuade his neighbors to resist militia call-ups and to hold private meetings of a doubtful character at his house. Learning this, major Joel, with a party of mounted volunteers, went to Richmond, arrested one Tiffie, "a most notorious promoter of sedition" and surrounded Dye's House, where he took a few armed Tories, who had "in open contempt of the laws of their country, bid defiance to the county lieutenant, and held constant meetings of the disaffected". A court-martial at Leedstown found Dye guilty of giving intelligence to the enemy and encouraging desertion, and sentenced him to prison for the period of the war. · ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- From Ancestry.com Message Boards: http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.dye/1133.1.1.1/mb.ashx -------------------------------------------------------- Captain, Fauntleroy Dye found guilty in June 1781 at Leedstown, Virginia.

| 25 | William enlisted in the Pennsylvania Infantry at the outbreak of the Revolutionary War. Private PS William Miller was with the 3rd Pennsylvania Brigade, 2nd Division, at Valley Forge, PA, from Dec 1777 to June 1778. His name appears on the Valley Forge Muster Roll Data Sheets under both Captain John Davis' Company and Captain Thomas L. Moore's Company. The 3rd Pennsylvania Brigade, which was organized in January and February of 1776 at Philadelphia, entered Valley Forge with 212 men assigned and 116 fit for duty and left Valley Forge with 194 men assigned and 107 fit for duty. Previous engagements included the defense of Canada, Lake Champlain, Northern New Jersey, the defense of Philadelphia and Philadelphia-Monmouth. http://valleyforgemusterroll.org/muster.asp?id=PA04521 William also served at the Siege of Yorktown in 1781, to within a few days of the surrender of British General Lord Cornwallice, when he received word of the death of his father at Germantown, PA (now a subdivision of Philadelphia). He received a Leave of Absence to attend his father's funeral which was written on a sheet of blue tinted dispatch paper and signed "G. Washington, Commanding, American Forces". After the war, he married Rachel Art. Several years later, after his mother died, he moved his family to Ohio and settled on the Miami River near Dayton. In 1816, he again moved his family to Illinois, crossing the Wabash River near Vincennes, IN, and settled at Hogues Prairie, near the present site of Russelville, IL. He died there in the Fall of 1818. According to page 55 of "Pioneer Life in Dayton and Vicinity 1796-1840" by John F. Edgar, 1896, reprinted by Higgonson Book Company. (Higgonsonbooks.com), "John Miller came to Dayton in 1799. He was born in Pennsylvania, 30 December 1766 and died 17 October 1825. After his death, his family moved to Indiana or Illinois". Page 85 states "The third term of court was held in June, 1804, and the following are extracts from the docket: Came a Grand Jury, to wit: John Gerard, James Gillespie, James Thompson, James Russel, Nathaniel Knotts, James Miller, Sr., Edmond Munger, John Bradford, James Scott, Michael Moyer, John Noop, Shadrach Hudson, and John Mikesell; found no bills". Page 252 states "As early as 1805 the Rev William Robertson, Dr. John Elliot, William Miller, Benjamin Van Cleve, and John Folkerth secured from the Legislature an act of incorporation for the Dayton Library Association, the first act of the kind passed in Ohio. It was sustained by voluntary subscription and a fine assortment of books was collected for that day; but during 1835, when times were hard and money scarce, the subscriptions failed, and the library was sold at auction from the clerks office on September 12". Note: John F. Edgar was the son of Robert Edgar, a settler who arrived during Daytons first year (1796).

DAVIS was born in what is now Clinton Co., Ky on 29 Dec 1825. He never went to a public school. He and his family lived in log house. In October, 1843 he married Miss Virginia Young. With five children, Parker, George, Haywood, Melvina and Evaline, they left Kentucky on 8th of May 1856, leaving one child Alice, a little over a year old, there (Beths note: Alice died in 1849 at 1 year and 13 days old, which is why they didnt bring her with them. Im not sure why the author didnt state that instead of suggesting that they left her behind). They went to Knox County, Illinois, reaching there May 29, 1856. They lived there two years, leaving there Aril 9, 1858 for Putnam Co., Missouri, landing there 22 Apr 1858. They settled on the Mark Crabtree place, on the northwest corner of which the Davis Schoolhouse was built, now called Victory. During the first year in Putnam, Ceburn gave one acre of his land for a school house site to belong to the district as long as it was used for that purpose. For this 80 acres and 10 acres timber disconnected, he gave a horse and wagon and a small amount of money, all valued at $200. They lived there till the fall of 1865. In (illegible), they bought 40 acres where Benton Spaw lived and 40 acres south of the 80 acres on which they lived. In the fall of 1865, they moved to the place where Mr. Spaw lived and for those two forties he gave $300, all in trade. They lived there till 1872, when he bought the place where a man by the name of Jones lived, for $1200. The rest of Ceburn and Virginias children were born here; Sarah, Ben, Arthur, Lizzie and Absalom. Ceburn was still living in 1901. [goes into a paragraph about the wild game in the area - nothing specific and nothing to do with family history] Ceburn J. Davis enlisted under Capt. Green Maize in Co. E, 4th Regt, E.M.M. He was in the Battle at Lancaster where a negro non-combatant and a few bush-whackers were killed. Later he was in Capt. George W. Ledfords Company, under Col. W.A. Shelton. They were stationed at Macon County and points along the Missouri River. They guarded towns and railroads, but were in no actual battle. http://beth0607.wordpress.com/2012/07/31/the-davis-family-of-kentucky/ | Davis, Ceburn Jefferson (I34554074765)

Along his journey, Guffey passed through a relatively level 15-acre expanse owned by C.E. and Eliza Kern. Situated less than a mile south of Goat Hill at 39th and Rainbow Boulevard, and close to an interurban railway line that offered a direct connection to Lawrence, this property was known as the Kern tract. Guffey became convinced it was the perfect spot for the new location the governor wanted for the Medical School. Assigned to investigate the matter further, Guffey found out that the owners would reduce their $75,000 asking price for the land to $65,000 if it would become the location for the KU School of Medicine. http://kuhistory.com/articles/we-cant-lose-the-medical-school/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.kshs.org/publicat/history/1992spring_king.pdf ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In 1928 in Kansas City, Hemingway gained a son and a novel insight By BRIAN BURNES - The Kansas City Star Date: 06/27/99 00:02 Ernest Hemingway faced two deadlines in June 1928. One involved his unborn child. Hemingway's second wife, Pauline, was eight months pregnant. The other involved his current manuscript. As yet untitled, Hemingway had begun his story several months before in Paris. In it, a laconic, almost numb World War I ambulance driver is wounded. He begins an affair with a nurse in a Milan hospital. Soon the nurse is pregnant. By June Hemingway wasn't sure how the novel, already being considered for serialization, would end. But both deadlines would be met -- not in Paris, or in Milan -- but in Kansas City in the summer of 1928. This was the city where Hemingway became a journalist as a teen-ager a decade earlier and to which he would return from time to time for brief stays, even as he became a writer of almost unprecedented fame. The book was published in 1929, 70 years ago, under the title A Farewell to Arms. The novel, perhaps Hemingway's most celebrated and examined, achieves an emotional climax with the difficult labor and the Caesarean delivery of the nurse Catherine Barkley's stillborn child. Then Catherine dies. Evidence suggests that Hemingway assembled the book's opening and middle passages from a smorgasboard of historical events and personal experiences. But the arrival of the author's real-life child, Patrick, apparently proved vivid to Hemingway, who weeks later incorporated an anxious delivery room drama into his novel's conclusion. On June 28, 1928, Patrick Hemingway was delivered by Caesarean section at old Research Hospital. Pauline had been in labor 18 hours. Her husband, who had missed the birth of his first son in 1923 while on assignment for the Toronto Star, may well have been riveted by the experience. "Obviously, if my mother hadn't undergone that business here in Kansas City, my father wouldn't have written with as much detail and insight as he did," Patrick Hemingway said during a recent Kansas City visit. Michael Reynolds, Hemingway biographer, goes further. In Hemingway: The American Homecoming, the third volume in his five-book series on the author, Reynolds maintains that two events in 1928 prompted and ended A Farewell to Arms: an accident in Paris in March, when a falling bathroom skylight left a deep cut in Hemingway's forehead, and his son's Caesarean delivery that June. The falling skylight roused Hemingway out of a writing block. It also, Reynolds said, seemed to spur him to confront the trauma he experienced driving an American Red Cross ambulance during World War I. Hemingway had been circling this material in his fiction and journalism for several years. The birth of his son, meanwhile, gave Hemingway a conclusion to the book, as well as the verisimilitude the writer so prized. "Down below, under the light, the doctor was sewing up the great long, forcep-spread, thick-edged, wound," Frederic Henry narrates in Chapter 41 of the novel. " ... I do not think I could have watched them cut, but I watched the wound closed into a high welted ridge with quick skillful-looking stitches like a cobbler's, and was glad." The detailed description of the procedure suggests that Hemingway witnessed Patrick's birth. Through close analysis of the novel and other materials, Reynolds also has concluded that before Hemingway arrived in Kansas City, he had not decided on any particular ending for the novel. "Hemingway tended to avoid planning ahead, saying that it would ruin the story for him," Reynolds said. The book originally might have ended with Henry's plunge into the Tagliamento River in Italy, as he tried to escape troops preparing to shoot him as a spy. But the nature of Patrick's arrival probably changed that, Reynolds said. "I still believe," Reynolds said, "that Pauline's operation was what triggered the ending." `All those things' The Hemingways arrived in Kansas City on June 14, 1928, because they wanted to have the child here. The author's distractions were many. On June 15 he visited the Republican National Convention, then under way at Kansas City's convention hall. There were visits to Don Carlos Guffey, the Kansas City obstetrician they chose to deliver the child. There were letters to answer from Hemingway friends in Paris as well as Maxwell Perkins, Hemingway's editor in New York. Yet Hemingway continued thinking and writing about northern Italy during the autumn of 1917, keeping his focus on Frederic and Catherine. "What I find incredible is all those things happening just when he really whipped that book into shape," Patrick said. "It just shows you that when people are really good, they can concentrate and get the work done no matter what the circumstances." After Patrick's birth, the Hemingways stayed in Kansas City until mother and son were strong enough to travel. They left for her family's home in Piggott, Ark., on or around July 20. During the preceding 35 days, Hemingway wrote the bulk of the novel's Book 3. That section details Frederic Henry's flight during the Italian retreat following the late October, 1917 breakthrough of Austrian and German troops at Caporetto, on the Isonzo River northwest of Venice. "This narrative is often cited as the most compelling section of the novel," Reynolds said. Hemingway awoke every morning to a warm and humid Kansas City. Then he sat down and summoned forth a cool autumn rain in northern Italy in 1917. He achieved this through research -- checking maps and war histories -- and the distillation of personal experience. One peril of reading Hemingway is just how close the arc of his life parallels those of his more memorable characters. The temptation is to read Hemingway fiction as pure biography. The line between novel and memoir especially blurs in A Farewell to Arms. Hemingway, who himself drove an ambulance in Italy, was both wounded and in love with a hospital nurse in 1918. But as Reynolds points out, Hemingway was no Frederic Henry. A Farewell to Arms begins in 1915. The book's opening pages include Frederic's famous description of the marching soldiers whose loads of ammunition bundled beneath their capes make them appear "as though they were six months gone with child." Hemingway never saw Italy until 1918. Nor had he experienced the battles Frederic describes or seen the terrain of Book 3. Yet the events he invented while living in Kansas City were so realistic that Mussolini's Italian fascist government banned A Farewell to Arms in Italy. Every step in the retreat, Reynolds said, is "incredibly accurate in its details, down to the specific weather, the various routes taken and the condition of the roads." While Hemingway throughout the 1920s schooled himself in the events of the war, it's also likely that the author continued his research of the Italian retreat as late as June 1928. "Somewhere in Kansas City he got some help," Reynolds said. "I would almost put money on it that he visited at The Star." Then Patrick arrived. Reading up Hemingway, a doctor's son, knew about Caesarean sections. During the almost seven months he worked as a cub reporter at The Kansas City Star, in 1917 and 1918, part of his beat was General Hospital. Yet his interest in obstretrics may have deepened after the war. When he returned from Italy with his wounded leg, he spent his convalescence in his family's Oak Park, Ill., home. Hemingway read everything in his father's office. That included his father's copies of the American Medical Association journal. That publication in 1918 and 1919 was full of articles on amputation, shock, traumatic neuroses and other miseries associated with the war. There also were 35 papers on childbirth, as counted by Charles R. King, then a physician in the University of Kansas obstetrics and gynecology department, for a 1989 article in Obstetrics & Gynecology. These included articles on stillbirth, birth trauma, nitrous oxide anesthesia for childbirth and hemorrhage as a cause of maternal death. Of particular interest was a paper detailing the operative techniques and complications of Caesarean sections. The article was written by Joseph B. Delee, a Chicago obstretrician trained at the same medical college as Hemingway's father. Today Patrick Hemingway remains unsure why his father didn't ask his own father -- Clarence Hemingway -- to deliver him. Clarence Hemingway delivered all six of his own children and in 1914 began listing obstetrics as his specialty. "It was a touchy subject," Patrick Hemingway said. "It's an interesting family thing that I don't know the ins and outs of." Kansas City relatives, meanwhile, may have suggested Guffey, an obstetrician thought to have performed the first Caesarean section in Kansas City. Guffey, the first chairman of gynecology and obstetrics at the University of Kansas medicine school, also was an arts devotee. His Roanoke district neighbors included painter Thomas Hart Benton. Guffey also had a fondness for collecting fine editions of modern literature. Such considerations may have helped Hemingway get into Pauline Hemingway's operating room on June 28. "They finally had to open up Pauline up like a picador's horse to lift out Patrick," Hemingway wrote to a friend a month later. "It is a different feeling seeing tripas (insides) of a friend rather than those of a horse to whom you have never been introduced." Birth, creation By July 4, when Hemingway paused to write his mother and father, Patrick was thriving. "He is very big strong and healthy," he wrote. "He is too big in fact as he nearly killed his mother. They had to do a cesaerian (sic) finally and I have been very worried about Pauline since but today her temperature is down to 99 and 8/10s and the gas distention is subsiding. She has suffered terribly." About two weeks later, the Hemingways left for Piggott, Ark. Hemingway soon turned around and headed to Wyoming, where he began to compose the novel's ending. Today a deluxe edition of A Farewell to Arms is held by the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Hemingway signed the book for Guffey, adding "with much admiration and grateful remembrance of a Caeserean(sic) that was beautifully done and turned out splendidly." Patrick Hemingway never discussed with his father the precise role his birth played in the book's creation. "I didn't know enough to ever ask him," the younger Hemingway said. "I should have. "The best story I remember was later on, after my parents were divorced," Hemingway added. "Somehow my dad didn't remember my birthday, and my mother reminded him. "He said, `Well, I always thought of it as more of an occasion for you than for him.'

In the 1850 census of Marshall County, TN., they are listed with their children; James Cavener 28, VA., Frances 30, TN., Timothy 5, TN., Adaline 4, TN., Mary Polly 2, TN., Sarah E. 8/12, TN.. This same family is shown on the 1860 census of Christian County, Missouri. House #412, Fanny Cavener [WD] 37, TN., Real Estate taxes $120.00, Timothy 16, TN., Adaline 14, TN., Polly 12, TN., Clementine 4, TN., Josephine 3, TN., and Martha R., 1, born in Missouri. This census shows their youngest child to be one year old, and Fanny to be a widow. So James Cavener died in about 1859. The story has been handed down that he died en route to Missouri from Tennessee, and it is not known where he is buried. Fanny [Gray] Cavener re-married in 1860, to Thomas Maples. Her oldest son, T.O. Timothy Cavener, married Martha Fugitt and lived all of his life at Union City, in Stone County. He was known as Uncle Tim Cavener. However, my father [Clarence Gold] told me that there were 2 Timothy Caveners at Union City, at the same time. During the Civil War, T.O. Cavener enlisted as T.O. Cavener from Crank, Missouri. It was called Crank, MO., then School, MO. and still later it was called Union City. A man named L.P. Crank, had a store and postoffice about one mile south and about one hundred yards west down the valley. That is where my grandparents; James Harvey Gold and Rozella Minerva Garouotte were married by L.P. Crank, in that grocery store in 1890. He later moved his postoffice and store to what was called Crank, MO. Then they built a schoolhouse, so it was called School, Missouri. Around the turn of the century the school was called the Reynolds School. And finally it was called Union City, that stuck until this day. My dad told me that Uncle Tim Cavener walked with sort of a leaned back limp, and everyone liked him. He also said that Tim Cavener was a tall skinny man. Uncle Tim Cavener and his wife Martha are both buried at the Wise Hill Cemetery, one mile north of Clever, in Christian County, MO.. Their children were: [1] Nancy Elvaline Cavener, born Oct. 2, 1872, Stone County, Mo. and died Oct. 9, 1951 at Springfield, Missouri. [2] Sarah F. Cavener, born March 1873, and died in 1959 at Halltown, MO., and buried at Wise Hill, Cemetery, [3] George Wm. Cavener, born Oct. 22, 1874 Stone County, MO., and died December 1, 1897, buried at Wise Hill, Cemetery. [4] Malinda Idella Cavener, born Sept. 23, 1876, Stone County, MO., and died October 19, 1966, Springfield, Greene County, MO. She married George W. Wilson. [5] Albert Cavener, born 1879 and died at about one year of age. Lucinda Adaline Cavener, was born April 18, 1844 in Marshall County, TN., and died October 29, 1898 in Stone County, MO. She married W.W. White and they are buried in the White Cemetery, 2 miles southeast of Union City, in Stone County, MO. They were the parents of 18 children, including 2 sets of twins. There are many descendants in this area. Clementine Cavener was born in about 1852 and died in 1950, she is buried in the Crane Cemetery, in Stone county, MO.. She married Jake Saltkill and they have many descendants in this area. Josephine Cavener, was born December 25, 1855, and died January 6, 1913, and she is buried in Wise Hill Cemetery , in Christian County, MO. She married Berry Damrill, and they had several children. Rhoda Angeline Cavener, was born in 1859 in Missouri and died August 12, 1942, in Stone County, MO. She married Samuel Saltkill and they also had several children. By her second marriage, Fanny [Gray] Cavener Maples and her husband Thomas Maples had two children; James S. Maples, and Curtis Maples. James S. Maples was born in about 1862. He married Sarah E. Ellingsworth of Highlandville, MO. on December 29, 1887. And they had several children. Curtis Maples was the youngest of the their children of Fanny [Cavener] Maples, he was born in about 1863 he was staying with his mother in the 1900 census of Christian County, and apparently stayed single until his mother died On July 7, 1901. Then he married Rhoda Webb, They are listed in the census of 1910 with several children. James S., and Curtis Maples were half-brothers to the children of Fanny and James Cavener. NOTEJust a few days before Jack King died, I was at his place, about one mile southeast of Clever. Jack had an old house beside the road, it looked very old, so I asked him who was the last person to live in that old house, he said, Fanny Cavener was the last person to live there, so that is probably where she died, but left no trace of her grave in the local cemeteries. She is the grandmother of many descendants in this area. http://schgs.weebly.com/frances-ldquofannyrdquo-gray-cavener.html | Gray, Frances (I34554077780)

| 40 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THOMAS B. SHORE THOMAS B. SHORE, of Millikin School District, is the owner of a beautiful and productive tract of 320 acres, on the Saratoga and Alviso Road, about three miles west of Santa Clara. The ranch, which is in a high state of cultivation, is principally devoted to the growing of hay and grain, for which it is well adapted. The proprietor also pays considerable attention to the raising of stock, both horses and cattle. Comfortable and well-ordered buildings, in connection with the general appearance of the ranch, denote a prosperous and successful result that must necessarily attend such intellingent and energetic efforts as have been put forth by its owner. Mr. Shore was born in Washington County, Missouri, in 1834. His father, Thomas P. Shore, was a native of Kentucky, and his mother, Isabella (Hyde) Shore, of North Carolina. His early life was spent in work on his father's farm, and in receiving such learning as the schools of that new county afforded. In 1850 his father and himself (he being but fifteen years of age) started for California upon the overland trail. The pack train toiled and dragged along its weary journey, unattended by and starling incident, but undergoing the hardships constantly occurring on a trip of that character, until it reached Salt Lake City. Their provisions being exhausted, it was necessary that more should be procured here, and in order to do this the party to which the Shores were attached were forced to seek work from the Mormons, and thus earn the money needed to supply their wants. When leaving Salt Lake City, the company, against the advice of the Mormons, decided to enter California by the southern trail. This portion of their journey was attended by severe hardships and privations. Deep morasses and swamps, rendered almost impassable by rains, rugged mountain trails, swollen streams, and arid deserts devoid of water,---all these obstacles were finally overcome, and the party arrived safely in California, in the year mentioned above. Mr. Shore's previous outdoor life proved of great benefit to him on this expedition, readily enabling him to endure the exposure and hardships. Soon after their arrival the father and son went to mining in what is now known as Nevada County. Not meeting with satisfactory results, they came into Santa Clara County in the autumn of 1850, and settled in the present Braly School District, about five miles northwest of Santa Clara, thus becoming early pioneers of the county. In 1851 Mr. Shore's father went East by the mail steamers, via the Isthmus route, and returned to California the following year with his family, making his second trip overland. He then settled in Mountain View, in this county, where he resided until his death, which occurred in 1873. The mother died about three years later, and both parents lie in Mountain View Cemetery. It is worthy of notice that both parents of Mr. Shore's wife are also buried in the cemetery. In 1860 Mr. Shore married Miss Agnes O. Bubb, daughter of William Bubb, of Mountain View. Six children have blessed this union, their name and ages (in 1888) being as follows: Paul Henry, twenty-five years of age; Oscar D., twenty years of age; Edith M., seventeeen years of age; Clara B. and Mary A., aged respectively fourteen and ten years.

Oldest daughter Fumiko returned to Hawaii in 1938 to marry Lawrence Kunihisa. Son Taro Kodama returned to Hawaii on 31 January 1941. The rest of the children, except for Sumie and Muneshige, returned to Wahiawa in 1948, after World War II ended in August 1945. They all lived with the Kunihisa family and were employed in Kunihisa's department store in Wahiawa (Kassler), until they were able to strike out on their own. During the period that the family was living in Nakatsuwara, their home, which was built on the bank of the adjacent river, was washed away by flood waters. They lost all of their possessions including family photos and momentos. Several of the Kodama children (Kazue, Suzue, Nobuo and Tatsuo) sailed from Yokohama, Japan, to Honolulu, Hawaii, aboard the ship General G. H. Gordon. They left Yokohama on 30 April 1948 and arrived in Honolulu on 7 May 1948. They listed their home address as P.O. Box 927, Wahiawa, Oahu, Teritory of Hawaii. They said that they had last departed from the United States on 17 June 1936. | Kodama, Nobuo (I34554071716)
