Before Vernie was born they lived on 31st St. A Moline (picture of Emma on front porch there)
When Vernie was born they lived in a house on the north side of 23 Avenue between 34th and 41st Street. (Believe there is a picture of Vernie in the yard there) By the time Lorraine was born, June 16, 1922 they lived on 34th Street across from Baker's Dairy. There are two similar small square houses there and they lived in the one to the south. When Lorraine was little they moved above the grocery store that was run by their brother-in-law, Leonard Nelson (Uncle Lenny) on the NW corner of 32nd Street and 23rd Avenue (later another small building was built between this building and the corner). Lorraine remembers falling down the steps there. Also there was running water but no sewer, so a bucket had to be kept under the faucet at all times. She remembers turning on the water when there was no bucket. Picture of Lorraine on a rocking horse was taken here. Lorraine believes that Uncle Lenny was buying the building the store was in. During the depression he felt sorry for people needing groceries and would allow them to have food without paying. He eventually lost both the store and his home on 32nd Street. The Jamieson family moved to a little brown house at 2356-32nd Street. Bob was born while they lived here. Emma's sister Mary lived across the street and her sister Lyda and her husband Lenny lived two doors down. Lorraine's long time friend Betty Westfall lived next door. The family was thinking of building a larger house when the house at 2341-32nd Street became available. This was during the depression and they got the house at a very good price. Wallace had established his garage on 23rd Avenue and was doing somewhat better than most during the depression. Marilyn was born when the family lived here. Emma lived in this house until the ?1960's?

[H20] Obituary (excerpts)
Dr. E. Jamieson Dies Suddenly on Saturday: Had Practiced Medicine in Walnut Grove for Thirty Years
Walnut Grove Tribune, July 22, 1937
Dr. Earl Jamieson, for almost thirty years a practicing physician and leading citizen in Walnut Grove, passed away at his home in this village Saturday evening at 10:45 p.m., following a brief illness, his death coming unexpectedly to his friends as well as to the members of his family for it was not realized until Friday afternoon that his condition was serious.
On Monday last week he had undergone a minor operation for the removal of a growth in his nose, and although trying to take is easy he had been attending to his professional duties during the week. Friday morning he was out to his farm north of town and was out in the fields looking at the grain and was apparently in his usual health. Later he made a professional call south of town.
Early Friday afternoon he and his sister-in-law, Miss Flora Jones, drove to Tracy, and while there he was taken ill and returned to his home. Physicians from Tracy and Marshall were called, and Mrs. Jamieson and daughter, Doris, who were at Bemidji, were notified and came as soon as possible. A specialist, Dr. Love from the Mayo clinic at Rochester, was sent for, but all efforts proved in vain. The cause of death is ascribed to meningitis, subsequent to the nasal operation, according to the diagnosis of the Rochester specialist.
Dr. Jamieson was born in Moline, Illinois, May 5, 1877, and was thus sixty years, two months and twelve days of age at the time of his death. He grew up in Illinois and obtained his education in that state. He was a graduate of the Hahnemann Medical College of Chicago and of the Medical Department of the University of Illinois. After completing his medical course, he was intern at the Cook County Hospital in Chicago for a year and a half, and was the physician in special work for some time at the Hull house Settlement in Chicago.
In August 1907, he came to Walnut Grove and has thus completed nearly thirty years of general practice here at the time of his death. As a physician his practice included a wide territory and he has been a very busy man during these years in attending to his professional duties in all seasons of the year and in all conditions of weather and roads.
He was very successful in his profession and enjoyed a high standing and reputation with his patients as well as with his professional associates. He was a member of the American Medical Association and of the Brown-Redwood Medical Society.
For a brief period during the war Dr. Jamieson left Walnut Grove and enlisted in the Medical Crops of the United States army, serving as captain at Travis, Texas, from September 1917, to March 1918, at which time he returned to his practice here. He was a member of the American Legion.
On October 7, 1915, he was married to Miss Mary Blanche Walker of Walnut Grove, who died on January 21, 1916.
In April of 1919 he was united in marriage to Miss Hazel Jones of Mankato, who together with their daughter, Doris, survives him. He is also survived by a brother, Guy Jamieson of Moline, Illinois, and by four sisters, Miss Blanche Jamieson and Mrs. Louise Alsterlund of Moline, Ill., Miss Grace Jamieson of Ann Arbor, Michigan, and Mrs. Lewis Weld (Clara) of East Falls Church, Virginia. ...
The auditorium was filled to capacity for the services, and the floral offerings were beautiful and several memorials have been to various organizations in his honor, one of which is for the school house and is donated by the community.
After the services, the remains were taken to Mankato for burial in the Minneopa cemetery.
Among the relatives from away, who were here for the funeral, were: Miss Blanche Jamieson and Mrs. Louise Alsterlund, sisters of Dr. Jamieson, both of Moline, Ill; Mr. And Mrs. Anthony Teigen of Lowry, Minn., Mrs. Herman Strand of Elbow Lake and Mrs. Eunice Jones of Mankato.

Many of the family paintings, pictures and the Dickens books that Lorraine McLaughlin has were stored in sheds and then the garage on the property. After Lee died and Vada remarried (Elmer) they gave Lorraine much of the family material. Some of the picture albums (and perhaps the photo she has of Alexander's children) were stored in the old Lound homestead. When Chester and Ruth Lound moved, they left a box of photographs in the attic. One of the neighbors found them and called Lee and he came to get them.

FRANCES LOUND DIES, AGED 89
Had Lived In South Moline Township for Seventy one Years
Mrs. Frances Ann Lound, 89, resident of South Moline Township for seventy-one years died of complications early yesterday afternoon in the residence of Mrs. N.H. Jamieson, 1812 Sixteenth Street, Moline, where she had lived during the last two years.
Mrs. Lound was among the early residents of South Moline township and spent the greater part of her life on the Lound homestead on the Coaltown road about four miles east of Prospect Park, Moline, She came to Illinois with two brothers when she was about 17 years of age.
Her fondness for recalling the early days in the county made her a favorite with hundreds of old friends in the township and she spent many happy hours during the last ten years, talking about the days before the time of twentieth century civilization.
She was born in Doncaster, Yorkshire, England on Dec. 3, 1839, and was the youngest and last surviving member of a family of twelve children. Her maiden name was Frances Ann Greenwood. She came to the United States with two brothers who later settled in Geneseo.
The year following her arrival in America, William Lound, also from Doncaster, England, came to the United States and the couple was married in Moline upon his arrival. Mr. Lound died in 1892.
Following her husband's death, Mrs. Lound resided on the old farm with her son William G. Lound, until two years ago. She was a frequent visitor in Geneseo where a large group of children and grandchildren of her brothers reside. Mrs. Lound was a member of the Methodist Church.
Surviving are two sons, William G. Lound of South Moline township, and Melville Dixon Lound, who also lives on a farm in South Moline township, five grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.
Her only daughter, Lilly Ann Jamieson, died in 1918, and another son died in infancy.
Funeral services will be held in Esterdahl chapel at 2 tomorrow afternoon.

William and Frances probably knew each other in Doncaster, England. Her obituary mentions that they were married "upon Williams arrival" a year following her arrival. If she was 17 when she arrived that would have been 1857. Therefore, he arrived and they were married in 1858. Their first child was born in 1859 the following year.

Stubbs Walden has been listed as the place she was from in Yorkshire, although the current source of that information is unknown.

[N90] Obituary, Moline Dispatch January 15, 1943

Ex-Dispatch Carrier is Missing in Action
Francis R. Jamieson, 21, son of Mrs. Lillian Jamieson, Coaltown road, Moline, and of Roland Jamieson, Silvis, is "missing in action," according to a telegram received by his mother. Jamieson was stationed on the cruiser Juneau, which was lost in a battle around the Solomons during November.

Seaman Jamieson enlisted September 25, 1940, and was aboard the aircraft carrier Wasp until last February, when he was transferred to the Juneau. He was home on furlough at that time.

Francis attended Moline and East Moline schools and is a former Dispatch carrier boy. He has a brother, Rodney, in Moline.

[N94] Rodney was in the Navy during WWII on the Wasp in the Pacific. He has a large collection of Indian artifacts that he found and collected over the years. In 2009 he said he is suffering from Crohn's Disease.

The house (House and 3 acres) he lives in in 2009 on John Deere Road was, he believes, built by George Greenwood for Lily Lound. He doesn't think Lily ever lived there. This land was not farmed but was mined for coal. From Guy and Lily's estate there were three parcels of land. One along Rock River which was farmed. There was a house on it. During prohibition Elmer Doppler had a still there and the house burned. Two, the original land that Lee and Wallace had, and three the land he lives on. (Phone conversation with Rodney 4/4/09.)

Coal Town School, which many of the family attended, was located just west of where Esterdahl's Mortuary is located in 2009. The building was moved from that site and is being used as a house below 38th Avenue betwee 74 and 150.

[N114] 2009 living in Rock Island according to his mother's obituary.

[N115] 2009 Living in Des Moines, IA according to mother's obituary.

[H35] Irvin submitted the following information to the American History Project in 1993, to document his experience riding the rails when he was 15 - 17 years old from Fall 1936 to June 1939. The Project produced a book and a video program titled "Riding the Rails: Children of the Great Depression."

My parents were divorced. We moved often. I went to 12 grade schools. Mother died when I was 11 years old. My sister and I went to live with an older brother in Moline, Illinois. I didn't feel at home there. After several attempts to run away, I joined the carnival and stayed with it from April 1936 until October 1936. After leaving the carnival, I decided to go to California where my father and brothers lived, but I had trouble finding out where the trains were going and made many mistakes. I was 15 years old.

I survived by asking people who lived near the RR yards for food. Even though they did not have much themselves, they would always share what food the had. In larger towns I would work in restaurants for food. Sometimes I would get vegetables at the market and bones at the butcher shop and cool them in a tin can. For shelter, usually I tried to find an empty box car, refrigerator car (ice compartment) or under a bridge. I learned the ropes by trial and error.

One experience I remember is going through the Moffat Tunnel in Colorado in a coal car. Several times I rode on tank cars and even slept on the platform with my arm over the had rail. I traveled across New Mexico and Arizona in hot weather with no water. When I was in San Francisco, I wanted to cross the bay, but didn't have a nickle for the ferry so I had to hitch hike all the way around the bay.

Impressive sights I saw included the Golden Gate Bridge. I was the largest fleet of Naval ships ever to assembel in the San Francisco Bay for the Golden Gate Exposition on Treasure Island in 1939. I took a tour on several ships - the Lexington and the Saratoga (aircraft carriers), the Battle ship Texas and others. I watched the filming of several movies in Hollywood.

The majority of time I traveled alone. I met a man who wanted me to carry his gun. I got off the train as soon as possible because I never liked guns. Another time when I was traveling in cold weather, a brakeman let me ride in the caboose. Some yard bosses would tell us where to catch the train and where it was going. I wanted to go to Mardi Gra, but heard about chain gaings and went North.

In Memphis, Tennessee I applied for a job to help dig a tunnel under the Mississippi River for telephone cables. First I had to get my Social Security Card and then take a pressure chamber test. I failed the test. In Des Moines, Iowa, I went to an employment agency and I got a job as a salad boy at the Fort Des Moines Hotel, but I had to pay them 1 days pay a week for 10 weeks, so I decided not to take the job.

While in Los Angeles in 1936, I saw television for the first time. It could just be shown from one room to another. Coming through Spokane, Washington, I took a narrow gauge railroad (SP&S) to Portland, Oregon. From Fargo, N.D., I took The Great Northern (Electric Train) to Idaho. Electric trains were put in to cut down on fires.

I stopped riding the rails when my brother suggested that I get off the road and either join the Army or the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). I joined the CCC because it was for a shorter time. I spent one year in the CCC and was then offered a job at John Deere Harvester Works, East Moline, Illinois, where I worked for 36 years and have been retired for almost 19 years. I spent 3 years in the Army from 1942 to 1945.

Looking back, I think I was looking for a home, which I found back in Illinois. I married one of my classmates and we've been married for 51 years, raised 5 children and lived in the same house for 47 years. I think not having a home for such a long time made me appreciate our home more.

[N127] From: Donald Grosvenors Main E-mail dated 20 February 2010:

The Grosvenors came from Kidderminster in Worcestershire where they once owned a carpet manufacturing business called Woodward Grosvenor. You can Google it as the name continues on. The Grosvenors were pillars of the local establishment being Mayors of Kidderminster and High Sheriffs of the County etc etc.

From: A Brief History of English Carpets and the Stourvale Mill by the J. R. Burrows Company

The town of Kidderminster, Worcestershire, lies about 20 miles southwest of Birmingham in the English industrial midlands. It has been a center of weaving for many centuries, and in the mid - late eighteenth century began to specialize in new forms of carpet weaving, rightfully coming to be called the carpet capital of Britain. The historic Stourvale Mill on Green Street was built in the early 1850's under the guidance of Henry Woodward, who had started his company in 1790, and who was joined by Benjamin Grosvenor to operate the first steam powered carpet mill in Britain on the site. The firm of Grosvenor Wilton Company Ltd. remains the major weaver of Brussels and Wilton carpets, and is the only firm with a complete design archive extant that covers over 200 years in business and over 10,000 patterns. J.R. Burrows & Co. are the agents in the United States for historic designs from this archive, which is marketed as the "Stourvale Mill Collection."

Kidderminster Carpets are a reversible flat weave carpet popular from the 18th century to the early 20th century. This form of carpeting has no pile and the pattern is shown in opposing colors on both faces, making it possible to turn the carpet over when one side was worn or soiled. In North America these carpets were commonly called Ingrain Carpet. None are woven today in the town of Kidderminster, but they are made still in small quantities in the United States, including designs by William Morris.

Later, the family had a house and office near the current location of the Moline Dispatch. The house had a widow's walk on top.
But his parents wanted him to live on the farm and be in charge of it. So the family moved to the farm. They extended the house and added a nice porch on the front. All the Jamieson's would alway congregate there. They had a Strawberry festival at the end of the season and would make homemade ice cream.

When Alexander died in 1897, his wife Norah stayed on the farm alone
