503 Dorothy Merle (Cravens) Stanley August 22, 1917 - December 6, 2009 Dorothy was born in Minneapolis, MN to Ellen and Clyde Cravens. She was the youngest of 3 children. She married Charles Stanley in 1937. They were married nearly 70 years and raised 3 children. For many years they enjoyed boating on the Mississippi River. They also enjoyed dancing, bowling, cards and social events of all sorts. I see them dancing once again on a boat somewhere while their youngest son Tom, who went on before them, a photographer, takes their photo. Dorothy loved to sew. She was a seamstress - extraordinaire, many are privileged to have something she made; a hat, a purse, a sweater, a blanket. She sewed helmet liners for the troops overseas and lap robes for those returning. Like crocheting a sweater together, link by link, she linked her family and friends together. There was always room for one more at her table. She demonstrated unconditional love. In recent years she enjoyed the camaraderie of both Solvang and Buellton Senior Centers. She enjoyed Bingo and Poker. She was a member of the Red Hat Ladies. She would tell you she had had a good life and was ready to move on. Her legacy continues in her family and her friends. She passed on at home with family. While straightening her room, getting ready for her Celebration of Life held on December 15th, a folded sheet of paper written in her frail hand was found. She had left us her own final message - Words to a song from 1918, "Till We Meet Again." Preceding her in death: husband Charles, son Tom, daughter-in-law Linda and grandson Charlie. She is survived by her son Charles Stanley, Jr, daughter Shirley Eyre, son-in-law Arnold Eyre, 9 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and 3 great-great-grandchildren with another one expected. Be well, dear gentle lady, you will be sorely missed. You were our friend. We support you in your next journey. Till We Meet Again. Till We Meet Again Smile the while you kiss me sad adieu, When the clouds roll by I'll come to you, Then the skies will see more blue, Down in lovers lane my dearie, Wedding bells will ring so merrily',' Every tear will be a memory, So wait and pray each night for me, Till we meet again. CRAVENS, Dorothy Merle (I1120)

505 Dr. M. G. Simpson of Fonda is making an indefinite visit at the home of his son, C.F. Simpson at Terril. Mr. Simpson is a veternary (sic) surgeon and may decide to locate in Terril permanently. SIMPSON, Dr. George Mayel (I1280)
 
506 Dr. M. G. Simpson, veterinarian, was called to Manson Sunday morning by a painful accident which befell his brother, R M. Simpson, who resides at that place. Mr. Simpson had the misfortune to be kicked by a colt with such force as to badly crush his left shoulder. As he is seventy-one years of age the injury is a very serious one and will require a good while to effect a cure. Mr. Simpson has visited his brother here a number of times and is well known to quite a number of Newell people. Mr. Simpson will have the sympathy of many Newell friends in this great misfortune. SIMPSON, Dr. George Mayel (I1280)

508 Dr. M. G. Simpson, veterinary surgeon, has been suffering severely the past two weeks from a cut on his left hand which has practically disabled the hand. The cut was to the bone and when it healed it did not heal clear to the depth of the cut and has consequently given Dr. Simpson lots of trouble. SIMPSON, Dr. George Mayel (I1280)
 
509 Dr. Michael Manz, the bearded, boisterous entrepreneur known equally for his twin vocations of psychiatry and winemaking, died early Wednesday at his Spokane home. He was 58.
Family members suspected that Manz, who had a recent history of heart problems, suffered a heart attack in his sleep.

“His wife was always worried that he was going to pack twice as much life into half a lifetime,” said daughter-in-law Kimberly Lusk Manz.

News of his sudden death stunned friends and colleagues in Spokane medical and viniculture circles, where Manz had excelled since the mid-1980s. Manz was associate medical director and attending psychiatrist for Sacred Heart Medical Center’s Psychiatric Center for Children and Adolescents.

“He was really a mental health champion in this community,” said Susan Hammond, director of the hospital’s psychiatric services. “He’s just a household name in the community for child psychiatry.”
Manz was also the founder and co-owner of Spokane’s Mountain Dome and Grande Ronde Cellars wineries, which were credited with raising the international reputation of Spokane wines.

This summer, Manz’s top champagne-style wine, the Cuvee Forte, was named one of the top 100 new wine finds in the world by British writer Tom Stevenson.

“I thought he brought a vision that Spokane could produce great wines,” said partner Dave Westfall, who was a friend and colleague of Manz for more than two decades.

In both worlds, Manz’s work was characterized by a quest for excellence, friends said. At Sacred Heart, he created the BEST program, which provides comprehensive treatment for mentally ill children and support for their parents.
“It is a unique program unlike any other in the state,” Hammond said. “He was immensely proud of that.”

At the winery, which began in the kitchen of a geodesic dome in 1984, Manz marshaled the help of his wife, Patricia, their three children and his brother, John Mueller, to create and sustain new offerings that ranged from still wine and the state’s first legal brandy to sparkling wines.

“Every year he thought he had to improve on it,” Westfall said.Manz, a solidly built man with bushy eyebrows and a full beard, was known for his outspoken views, said Kim Connolley, a nurse manager in Sacred Heart’s child and adolescent psychiatry unit.“He had strong opinions, passionate opinions, not ones that everybody agreed with, but he was fine with that,” she said. “He was larger than life in every space that he filled.”

Manz’s strongest passions revolved around his large, close-knit family. He was married for more than 35 years to Patricia Manz, who owns and operates Spokane’s Woodland Montessori school.The couple have three children, Erik, David and Rachael, and one granddaughter, Sylvie. In recent months, Manz was a proud grandfather who baby-sat in the evenings while Sylvie’s parents worked.“Michael was very well-loved by all of us,” said Kimberly Lusk Manz, who is a Spokesman-Review copy editor. “It was a very, very close family and we all knew how well-loved we were by him, too.”Born in Minneapolis, Manz earned a bachelor’s degree from Augsburg College and a medical degree from Baylor College.

After completing psychiatric residencies in San Francisco and Portland, Manz moved with his wife to Spokane in the early 1980s.The wine community will miss Manz, said John Allen, co-owner of Vino! in Spokane.“Dr. Manz inspired everybody in the business by his sheer power of will, by saying, ‘I’m going to make wine and I’m going to make the wine I like,’ ” Allen said.

“It was bold of them to do what they did, and they did it with such panache.”Services will be held at 1 p.m. Nov. 10 at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church, 316 E. 24th Ave., Spokane. Call (509) 747-6677 for information.

510 Dr. Schwartz and Halder Gravdahl experienced a lively ride last Sunday near Ellsworth. One of the tugs came unfastened causing the team to be come frightend (sic) and run away. They were both thrown out but fortunately neither was seriously hurt. The buggy alone showed signs of hard treatment; the tongue and dash-board both being broken. GRAVDAHL, Haldor Olsen (I370)
 
511 Dr. Simpson has a copy of the New York Herald published April 15, 1865 the morning of President Lincoln's death. The paper was one purchased by the doctor's father and has been preserved since his death in 1878. It was an extra and came out at 8:10 a.m., just fifty minutes after the president's death. The news statements are practically all signed by the secretary of war. Mechanically the paper differs much from present day newspapers, being six 16m columns in width, hand set in nonpariel type and the advertising was all patent medicine. SIMPSON, Dr. George Mayel (I1280)
 
512 Dr. Simpson this week brought in some samples of corn raised on the farm of John Lott near Lytton. A year ago Mr. Lott made a trip to Louisiana and brought back enough corn to plant an acre of ground. He planted the corn May 12th, and the stalks of some of them grew to a height of twenty feet and were six inches in circumference. One ear of corn is ten inches long and six inches in circumference. A sample of the corn is at the Times office. SIMPSON, Dr. George Mayel (I1280)
 
513 Dr. Simpson transacted business at Gilmore City last week. Upon arriving home Friday evening he found a telegram awaiting him announcing the death of his brother Fred at Fairbolt, Minn. Dr. Simpson seems to be having more than his share of sorrow, having just buried his wife and his oldest brother who died on April 10, of this year. SIMPSON, Dr. George Mayel (I1280)
 
514 Dr. Simpson, who recently passed an examination required by law as veterinary surgeon, received his diploma last week. The law requires that every person offering his services as veterinary shall pass the required examination, and to practice without doing so is to lay one liable to a heavy fine. This does aweay with a large number of "hoss doctors," and protects the people from quack horse doctors. SIMPSON, Dr. George Mayel (I1280)
 
515 Drafted and sent substitute who deserted. WALTER, Baltzer (I1795)
 
516 Drayman, Frank White, the chief of police, has bought the team and dreay from A. Brown and will resign his office. We regret that the city is to lose the services of so reliable and conscientious a public servant. Mr. White made an excellent officer, and while attending fully to the discharge of his rather thankless duties, he refrained from that meddlesome interference with private concerns too often characteristic of those who are given any considerable authority. If he attends as carefully to his own business as he did to that in which the city employed him, there is little doubt that he will make more money in it and get more credit for it. WHITE, Frank L (I1740)
 
517 Drinking Charges Files Against Four

Charles M. Uphouse, Morrison-Knudsen construction worker, this week was assessed a fine of $20 on charges of asserted drunkenness. He appeared Monday morning before Justice of the Peace Clark T. Stanton, and pleaded guilty to the offense.

520 Drowned at the "Chops" in Kennebec Rivers, The Shipping Days of Old Boothbay, p 324 quotes the Bath Gazette, published 1 June 1821: “On Sunday last Captain [Nathaniel, b 1775] Tibbetts and his two sons, of Boothbay were drowned by the bilging of a boat on a rock at Line’s Island, near this place.” A copy of the news article was obtained from GenealogyBank, confirming the notice appeared in the 9 June 1821 issue of the Bath Gazette. Therefore, the death card on file in the Maine, Deaths Ancestry database providing date of death as 27 May 1822 is clearly in error. TIBBETTS, Nathaniel (I2645)

533 Eben Hamor's manuscript, and the FamilySearch "Maine Birth" database list Ambrose's name as Jason Ambrose. However, his name is consistently listed as Ambrose throughout census records, and in adulthood, using a middle initial of H, which has been accepted as his name for this history.

The LighthouseDigest.com stated, "Ambrose H. Wasgatt...was the keeper at Egg Rock 1875-1885 and then transferred to Prospect Harbor where he served from 1885 to 1924 for a total of 49 years."

541 Email dated 28 Oct 2013 from J. Clarke Bursley to Lauren C. Mahieu:

"There is no known documented direct evidence that Lemuel is Benjamin's son. For your database you can show that the Mayflower, DAR, and SAR applications were approved based showing a reasonably exhaustive search of likely information sources in Massachusetts and Maine, and upon my analysis of data correlating indirect evidence of the Benjamin - Lemuel linkage, contending that Lemuel Bursley was the son of Benjamin Bursley, Jr. and Elizabeth Goodspeed for the following reasons:
- Lemuel was born in Barnstable, Massachusetts, and Benjamin and Elizabeth Bursley are the only known couple in the Barnstable area of the correct age, and who were not parents of another line.
- A Benjamin Bursley is present (for the two court cases) in 1802-1803 in Farmington, Maine, the small town  where his presumed son, Lemuel Bursley, lived from at least November 1799 until his death in November 1854. There were no other Bursley families enumerated in Farmington until 1840 when Lemuel’s son, Lemuel Jr., was a head of household.
- The naming patterns of Lemuel's children.
-Both men were Joiners (Benjamin recorded in court cases; Lemuel in town history and 1850 census)."
