[H97] Wallace and Emma married after Wallace returned from serving in WW I.

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?

[H13] Norah was born in a small village called Quarndon outside of Derby. She grew up in Derby at Trinity Terrace across the street from the Royal Infirmary. The house had a balcony on the second floor and near the middle of a row of houses. There is a church located at one end of the row. Next to this block was a block of one story poor houses. There was a candy store behind the row of house.

She went to a finishing school on Uttoxiter. Miss Banks was her teacher. Norah learned French and painting. Norah enjoyed painting the rest of her life.

Norah first lived at 19th Street and 5th Avenue in Moline in the Ainsworth house. She also lived at 316-16th Avenue. On September 11, 1892, Norah moved to the Miller house on 7th Avenue. Norah had an operation in 1898. In 1910, she went to Washington, D.C. with Clara. She returned to Moline in 1911.

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.
Doctor Earl Jamieson was a graduate of Hahneman Medical College in 1905. He was a Captain in the Army at Fort Riley, Kansas, and Camp Travis, Texas. He also lived in Walnut Grove, Minnesota from 1907-1937.

To Friends of Clara J. Weld.

This is to inform you that Mrs. Weld passed from us on October 22, 1971, at the Powhatan Nursing Home in Falls Church, Virginia, where she had been cared for since 1969. She was 92. It was her wish that there be ?no public funeral and no florist flowers?. Interment will be beside her husband, Lewis, in the West Ridgeway Cemetery near Medina, New York, his boyhood home.

The following obituary material was prepared:

Clara Jamieson Weld, widow of entomologist Lewis H. Weld and long active in naturalist groups in the Arlington area, died October 22 at the Pohatan Nursing Home at the age of 92. She was particularly interested in the Girl Scouts and her knowledge of wildlife, her extensive travel experience, and her interest in young people made her a particularly effective Scout counselor.

Mrs. Weld was born near Moline, Illinois, and attended the public schools there. She graduated from the University of Michigan in 1901 and, in conjunction with high school teaching, received a Master?s Degree in 1905. In 1908 she came to Washington as a plant pathologist for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, where she continued studies of fungal diseases until her marriage to Mr. Weld in 1915. The couple resided in Evanston, Illinois, and traveled frequently thereafter in Western United States, Europe, South America and the Orient in connection with entomological work.

They returned to Washington in 1919 when Mr. Weld joined the U.S.D.A. Bureau of Entomology and in 1925 established their home on North Washington Boulevard in East Falls Church. Gardening was a major interest and Mrs. Weld specialized in peony culture, receiving numerous awards. She participated in art and music appreciation activities, but was particularly interested in nature training for Girl Scout Leaders, for which she received a special award in 1967 for her service to Scouting from 1935 to 1962.

Mrs. Weld was a member of the Columbia Baptist Church and of the Society of the Sigma Xi.

[H20] Attended Good Homes School of Nursing in Ann Arbor, Michigan in 1915.

[H21] Wallace worked on Sylvan Island at the steel mill. He also delivered mail for awhile. Lorraine remembers that he talked about getting in trouble because he put a snake in a mail bag. After he returned from serving in WWI he started a little garage on 23rd Avenue where the red brick store is today. He was always mechanically inclined and he eventually built a bigger garage on the South side of 23rd Avenue, where Landin's Lamps is located today. The outside light fixture on the garage was made by Mr. Reinhart. One of the lights is on the McLaughlin garage. There were gas pumps in front of the garage. There is an early picture of Lorraine and Verne on the step of the garage.

[H22] Lee lived for many years in the house on the site of the original Jamieson log cabin. He had many family items that had been left there over the years. Many of the family paintings, pictures and the Dickens books that Lorraine 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.

[H23] Ines was headmistress of her school "Braemar" for 600 girls in Santiago, Chile.
Reported by Flora and Sid Shaw, Casilla 2439, Santiago, Chile. April 14, 1924, James S Hartman

[H24] The Lound homestead was located on Coal Town Road (Harvest Road or the service road north of John Deere Road) on the west side of the intersection with Kennedy Drive. This is the property where the 'IBM building' was built, and which is currently (2003) housing Western Illinois University Quad Cities campus. Unlike the IBM building, the house was located close to Coal Town Road.

A death certificate is not available at the Rock Island County Clerk's Office as it was not required before 1910.

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.

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.

Vivian Jamieson, 85, of Moline, died Saturday, Sept. 6, 2003, at Rosewood Care Center, Moline.

Services will be 10:30 a.m. Wednesday at Esterdahl Mortuary, 6601 38th Ave., Moline, with the Rev. Janice Griffith officiating. Visitation will be 4 to 7 p.m. Tuesday at the funeral home. Burial will be at Rose Lawn Memorial Estates, Moline. Memorials may be made to her church, Riverside United Methodist Church, Moline.

Vivian was born May 11, 1918, in Center Junction, Iowa, daughter of Corwin and Margaret Carson Anderson. She married LaVern R. Jamieson Aug. 20, 1938, in Rock Island. He died Sept. 29, 1995.

Vivian retired from Deere & Co. in 1976 where she was a cashier for 18 years.

Vivian is survived by a daughter, Melanie Banfield, Moline; grandchildren and spouses, Gina and Mark Anderson, Roseville, Ill., and Jamie and Jane Banfield, Coal Valley; great-grandchildren, Collin and Maren Anderson and Brett and Chad Banfield; a brother and spouse, Dean and Beverly Anderson, Stuart, Fla.

She was preceded in death by a son-in-law, Ronald J. Banfield.

[H33] 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.

A coachmaker named John Lamb was working in the town in 1710 and 1727. By the later 18th century there were two coachmakers, William Butler in Bore Street and James Butler in Wade Street. James, who took over William's firm in 1766, was still in business in 1779, when he also advertised as a house painter. A coach works owned by Charles Holmes in 1810 may have occupied the Butler premises in Wade Street; certainly the partnership of Holmes & Turnor operated from Wade Street in 1816. Known as Holmes & Butcher by 1829, the partnership was evidently dissolved in 1848 and the works was continued by William Holmes. In 1860 Arthur and Herbert Holmes worked as coach and harness makers in St. John Street, possibly on the north side of St. John's hospital where John Heap had a coach works in 1848. By 1864 they had moved their premises to Bird Street, evidently on the corner with Bore Street. As Holmes & Co. the business continued there until c. 1918. In 1818 William Weldhen was making coaches and coach harnesses, evidently on the east side of Upper St. John Street where he had a workshop and showroom in 1847. Premises there were in the hands of John Weldhen in 1864. The business was sold in 1890 to John Hall, a coachmaker based in Gaia Lane. Hall continued the St. John Street works until c. 1918.

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.

Octavius Oakley RWS (1800 Bermondsey - 1867 London), was a Victorian watercolourist.

Oakley initially worked for a cloth manufacturer near Leeds in Yorkshire. He developed into a specialist of portraits in watercolour and enjoyed the patronage of the Duke of Devonshire. From living in Derby where he depicted rustic scenes, he moved to Leamington Spa in Warwickshire in 1836, but returned to London in the 1840s and worked there until his death, producing paintings of street scenes and gypsies and their lifestyle. His emphasis on gypsy paintings which he exhibited at the Royal Watercolour Society earned him the name 'Gypsy Oakley'.

Oakley met Thomas Baker in Leamington Spa where Baker was living and working and in 1841 did a portrait of the celebrated painter, who was an important figure in the Midlands and Birmingham art world.

Octavius Oakley was the father-in-law of the well known Guernsey 19th century watercolourist Paul Jacob Naftel. He was born in Bermondsey and worked in Derby and Leamington until 1841, when he moved to London.

Oakley first visited Guernsey in May 1844, possibly invited to the island by his future son-in-law. Once Oakley’s daughter Isabel and Naftel were married, Oakley would return to Island regularly, painting charming character portraits of local children and rustic figures which he was well known for.

Another favourite subject matter of Oakley’s was Gypsies. He became so well known for these Romanticised images that he earned the name of ‘Gipsy Oakley’. Towards the end of his life he moved away from this subject, devoting most of his time to landscape painting.

[N107] Family records indicate that he left for South Africa when Florence was 7 months old. He died soon after in 1859-1860.

Donald Main (E-mail dated 22 February 2010) in Australia says his old chart indicates that her had "gone to Australia."

[H74] According to family records, he went as a boy to South Africa with his father. Was a letter carrier. Later, he was the proprietor of a gold mine in Johannesberg.

He saw "Napoleon III of France" only son, Napoléon IV, Prince Imperial, often referred to as Louis Napoléon, killed by Zulu natives in South Africa. This could mean only one thing, that he was a soldier in the scouting force that led to the death of the Prince Imperial.

With the demise of the Second French Empire, the Prince Imperial was exiled to the United Kingdom, where he first attended elementary lectures in physics at King's College London. He subsequently applied and was accepted to the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich. At the outbreak of the Zulu War in 1879, the Prince Imperial, with the rank of lieutenant, forced the hand of the British military to allow him to take part in the conflict.

On the morning of 1 June 1879, the troop set out earlier than intended, and without the full escort, largely owing to Louis's impatience. Led by Lt. Carey, the scouts rode deeper into Zululand. Without Harrison or Buller present to restrain him, the Prince took command from Carey, even though the latter had seniority. At noon the troop was halted at a temporarily deserted kraal while Louis and Carey made some sketches of the terrain, and used part of the thatch to make a fire. No lookout was posted. As they were preparing to leave, about 40 Zulus fired upon them and rushed toward them screaming uSuthu! ("Kill!"). The Prince's horse dashed off before he could mount, the Prince clinging to a holster on the saddle - after about a hundred yards a strap broke, and the Prince fell beneath his horse, trampling his right arm. He leapt up, drawing his revolver with his left hand, and started to run - but the Zulus could run faster.

The Prince was speared in the thigh but pulled the assegai from his wound. As he turned and fired on his pursuers, another assegai struck his left shoulder. The Prince tried to fight on, using the assegai he had pulled from his leg, but, weakened by his wounds, he sank to the ground and was overwhelmed; when recovered, his body had eighteen assegai wounds. Two of his escort had been killed and another was missing. Lt. Carey and the four men remaining came together about fifty yards from where the Prince made his final stand-but not a single shot did they fire at the Zulus.

[N108] Dictionary of National Biography, Volume 40 By Sir Leslie Stephen, Sir Sidney Lee:

Paul Jacob Naftel was a painter in water-colours, born in Guernsey on 10 Sept. 1817, was the son of Paul and Sophis Naftel of Guernsey. He resided during the earlier part of his life in Guernsey, where he was educated; and, although a self-taught artist, was appointed professor of drawing at Elizabeth College. Becoming known for his delicate and refined syudies in water-colour, he was elected asssociate of the "Old" Society of Painters in Water-colours on 11 Feb. 1856, and a fukk member on 13 June 1859. He did not settle in England until 1870, when he resided at 4 St. Stephen's Square, Westbourne Park, London, continuing to practise as a drawing-master, and to be prolitic exhibitor at the exhibition of the "Old" Society. He subsequently moved yo 76 Elm Park Road, Chelsea, and later to a house at Strawberry Hill, where he died on 13 Sep. 1801. Naftel's subjects were in his earlier days the scenery of his native Channel Islands, and latterlyy views in the Unitede Kingdom and Italy. Thery were remarkable for tender and light effects rather than strength, and in his earlier days he was lavish in his use of body colour. He made designs to illustrate Ansted and _____ book on the "CHannel Islands," 1862. Naftel married, first, Miss Robilliard of Alderney; and, secondly, Isabel, youngest daughter of Octavius Oakley [q.v.], water-colour painter.

[N109] Dictionary of National Biography, Volume 40 By Sir Leslie Stephen, Sir Sidney Lee:

Maud Naftel was a painter, daughter of Paul Jacob Naftel by his second wife, Isabel Oakley, was born on 1 June 1856. At first a pupil of her father, she afterwards studied at the Slade School of Art in London, and in Paris under M. Carolus Duran. She attained distinction as a painter in water-colours, and was especially noted for her paintings of flowers. She was elected an associate of the "Old" Society of Painters in Water-colours in March 1887, but died in her father's house at Elm Park Road, on 18 Feb. 1890. She published a book on "Flowers and how to paint them." [Private information; Roget's Hist. of the "Old Water-colour" Society.] L.C.
