Linda is a Registered Nurse. Born and raised in the Ozark region of Missouri, Linda met Dr. (then 1LT in the Air Force) Palmer in San Antonio, where, eight months later, they were married. Leaving shortly after that for Lieutenant Palmer’s assignment in Greece, Linda started a 39-year journey around the world. Since the start of that journey, Linda has been all through Europe, has lived in both Greece and the Netherlands, and has traveled extensively, making friends around the world. What makes her heart beat fast, now, is her three grandchildren, Zachary and Aiden (from son Christian and his wife Kristin), and Quinn Olivia (from daughter Whitney and husband Patrick). Linda’s travels now pretty much are to be with her grandkids. Linda reads so many books that Dr. Palmer can not even keep up with the titles. She is an amazing cook, and enjoys cooking for friends. She has mostly lost her southern drawl, which Dr. Palmer loved to hear, and now speaks “Yankee” like a native (source).

Lloyd George Elliot was born on 1919 in Clarence of Nova Scotia. He lived in a farm at Annapolis Valley. At the age of 15, Elliott graduated from his high school, and at the age of 19, he graduated from Dalhousie University. In 1943, Elliott got a Ph.D. from the M.I.T and helped advance on the beta ray spectroscopy. At that time, he had already co-authored 10 papers and moved to Montreal Laboratory, where he soon left then moved to Chalk River.
 Elliott helped Bob Bell on accuracy measuring for deuteron binding energy, (deuteron is the nucleus of a deuterium atom and deuterium is heavy hydrogen). The two were also first on measuring shortest gamma ray’s life, which is lesser than a picosecond. Elliott was chosen to be a part of the Royal Society; a group that represents all areas of science, when he was only 30. He became the leader of the physics team when he was 32 for C.R.L, formally known as C.R.N.L [...]

Llyod George Elliott married Margaret ?
They had three sons.

Elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in 1949.
Became Director of Research at the Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories in 1967. 

Lloyd is retired from U.S. Postal Service. He lives (2012) in Spokane Valley, Washington. 

Louis Payzant should have been mentionned in 1901 Census in his parents household. He probably died before.

Ludwig Emil Franz reached New York aboard the Rhaetia out of Hamburg, Germany on August 5th, 1885. His name is listed in the ship manifest (#142 | age: 22 | country: Germany | province: Prussia | city: Tilsit | occupation: Farmer). See also: GermanImmigrants1880s.com.

The SS Rhaetia was a transatlantic passenger ship on the Hamburg-American line. She was built in 1882 by Reiherstiegwerft, Hamburg, Germany and was 350.1 feet long and 42.6 feet wide and weighed 3,467 tons. The steamship had a speed of 12 knots and was powered by compound engines that delivered 2000 I.H.P. to a single screw. The steel-hulled ship had three masts (the foremast rigged for sail), and one funnel. She had accommodations for 96 first class and 1100 third class passengers and a crew of 90. She was launched on November 23, 1882 and sailed from Hamburg on her maiden voyage to Havre and New York on April 4, 1883. The SS Rhaetia commenced her last voyage on this service on November 4, 1894 and in 1895 was taken by Harland & Wolff (shipbuilders) in part payment for the new ship Pennsylvania. She was then bought by J. H. Bögel of Hamburg and in 1898 was sold to the US Navy and renamed Cassius. In 1900, she became a US army transport and was renamed Sumner. On December 11, 1916 she was wrecked on Barnegat Shoals, NJ. (source)

Tilsit is the old name of Sovetsk. Before its annexion by the URSS in 1946, it was in Oriental Prussia. (see www.tilsit.com)

Ludwig Franz and his wife Margaret are mentioned in successive editions (1892 to 1922) of the Des Moines City Directory.

L. E. Franz was the first typesetter of the Iowa Volksblatt (source). He was a member of the Des Moines typographical Union No. 118 (source). In 1895 he bought a grocery store in Des Moines (source).

The Iowa Volksblatt served the community of Postville, Iowa, for many years. There was a large influx of German people in this area who could not read or write the English language but most of them could read or write German. They discussed the subject of a German newspaper with their pastor, Rev. J. Gass. In 1891 Rev. Gass began the publication of the Iowa Volksblatt. In 1895 he transferred the management of the paper to his printers, Henry Brechler and Guxtav Dietsch of Milwaukee, Wis. By this time the paper was well established. Mr. Dietsch bought his partners share in 1897 and conducted the paper alone until 1908 when he sold his plant and office building to Paul Ronneburger and Sam Hoesly of Monroe, Wis. (source).

 

Lundi, vers une heure du matin, un drame a mis en émoi la commune d’Arès, située entre le bassin d’Arcachon et la forêt des pins.
 Un journalier, Octave Bienzan, âgé de vingt-huit ans, marié depuis deux ans à une ancienne bonne de café d’Arès, âgée de dix-huit ans, a tué d’un coup de fusil tiré de la fenêtre de sa demeure, un nommé Betrand Devidas, âgé de quarante-deux ans, marin à Andernos, veuf et père de trois enfants.
 D’après le meurtrier, c’est dans une auberge d’Arès qu’il aurait rencontré, dans la soirée, Bertrand Devidas qu’il ne connaisait pas.
 En sa compagnie et celle d’un ami, Bienzan quitta l’auberge pour aller à la pêche à la « piballe ».
 Pendant qu’il changeait de vêtements, ses deux compagnons restèrent devant sa demeure, située dans un endroit désert, puis tous trois se dirigèrent vers le canal.
 En cours de route, Bertrand Devidas aurait quitté ses compagnons sous le prétexte de rentrer chez lui à Andernos.
 Pris de doute, Bienzan abandonna son projet de pêche, rentra rapidement à son domicile et se coucha sans avoir remarqué rien d’anormal.
 Mais cinq minutes plus tard, il aurait entendu frapper à la fenêtre, et à plusieurs reprises dire : « Ouvrez-moi ou je défonce tout. »
 C’est sur cette menace que la fenêtre aurait été ouverte et qu’il aurait fait feu sur l’importun qui fut attent mortellement au cou.
 Le meurtrier est allé lui-même prévenir les gendarmes ; il soupçonnait, a-t-il déclaré, l’inconnu d’être un maraudeur venu pour lui voler ses poules et ses lapins.
 Le parquet s’est transporté sur les lieux et a ouvert une enquête qui, croit-on, amènera de nouvelles révélations.

Macy Millmore Skinner graduated from Harvard University in 1894 (PhD). He attended the University of Heidelberg in Germany, probably studying economics. He apparently became well respected, worldwide, as an economist. From 1895 to 1914, he was professor in the German Department at Stanford University (California). A scandal (see doc1, doc2, doc3, doc4) forced him to resign suddenly in August 1914. He went to China where he was an economic advisor to Sun Yat-Sen. He came back to America, and went on to the University of Washington where he was Business Professor in the Economics Department and Dean of Men.

 After graduation, I continued my work in the Graduate School and made my PH.D. in Semitic Languages and Literature in 1897. I went abroad on a Rogers Fellowship, and spent one year at Strassburg, and one at Berlin. On my return, finding that the prospect of making satisfactory progress in the teaching profession in my line was not a brilliant one, I changed to German, for which I had always had a strong liking. I was appointed Instructor in German at Harvard and remained there for six years, that is, until the spring of 1905, when I was called to Stanford University, Cal., as Assistant Professor of German. My family and I spent the year 1911-12 in Germany. In the months of August and September, 1911, I represented Stanford University at the centennial festivities of the universities of Beslau, Germany, and Christiania, Norway. During my absence, I was advanced to Associate Professor of German at Stanford. Having always had a strong desire to see the Orient, I gave up my position at Stanford in 1914 and sailed for China, where I spent two years in educational work. On my return in 1916, I was appointed to teach Chinese in the University of Washington, where I am at present located.
 Early in the year 1917, when it looked as though the U.S. would enter the war, I joined a Military Company of University Professors and drilled under the instruction of Major Patten, Commandant of the R.O.T.C. at the University. I assisted in the Military work of the Summer School and in the fall of 1917 was appointed Captain and Adjutant of the Intercollegiate Intelligence Bureau (later merged into the War Service Exchange), I was in constant communication with military and other departments of the Government, and endeavored to help our students find the kind of service they were fitted for and wished to enter.

From the “HARVARD COLLEGE, Class of 1894, Fiftieh Anniversary Report (1944)”:

Top-notch, versatile scholar with a Classical foundation; myriad-minded linguist, turning after his experience in China to economics and business administration with a brilliant professional career; spreader of the gospel of international comity.

Macy Millmore Skinner, 1947

MACY MILLMORE SKINNER was born “in the very center of Boston,” the son of John Skinner, M.D. ’56, and Jeanie Reid Terwilliger. He is now living in Seattle (2006 25th N.), and is teaching at the University of Washington. He tells his own story:
 “My father, who was a graduate of the Harvard Medical School, and my mother, who had intellectual interests and rather unusual literary talent, encouraged their four sons to seek the best educational training attainable. So three of us attended the Boston Latin School and Harvard, and one the English High School in Boston and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
 “The Boston Latin School emphasised particularly the study of the classical languages, Latin and Greek, and, with its high standard of scholarship requirements, gave me habits of application and thoroughness that stood me in good stead through a long educational career, and, in particular, determined the direction my interests took at the University. There I continued with my classical studies, but added Spanish, German, and some more French to my répertoire, and later branched out into the Oriental field, taking courses in Oriental history and civilization, and several Semitic languages, Arabic, Hebrew, Syriac, Aramaic, and Phoenician. Eventually I secured a Ph.D. degree in Semitic languages and literature.
 “Sent abroad on a Rogers Traveling Fellowship, I spent two years in Europe, studying at Strassburg and Berlin. During this period, in addition to attending various courses in classical and modern Arabic, Persian, comparative philology, philosophy, and literature, I took the opportunity of working up an acquaintance with the older Germanic dialects, a study which I continued when, on my return, I was appointed to an instructorship in German at Harvard. During the following summers, I went back to Europe for further work at a number of universities – Heidelberg, Leipzig, Marburg, etc. Incidentally, I now added Italian to my linguistic interests.
 “In 1905, I was called to Stanford University as assistant professor of Germanic languages and literature, and in the Spring of my first year there, went through the ordeal of the California earthquake. With my family I spent my sabbatical year of 1911-1912 in Europe.
 “My Oriental interests drew me in 1914 to China, where I spent two years in educational work, incidentally devoting some time to the study of the Chinese, and to a lesser degree, the Japanese language. I returned in 1916 in order to do my part in World War I, for which I saw, that we, too, were heading. I was appointed assistant professor in the University of Washington in Seattle, where I taught German, and also introduced courses in the Chinese language. My six years of military training at the Boston Latin School stood me in good stead at this time, and I was one of a few professors chosen to train our students for service overseas. I was also made Dean of Men at the University.
 “As the war closed I weighted the possibility of securing a position at some eastern university in comparative philology, but accepted an assistant professorship in the College of Business Administration at the University of Washington, where I introduced courses of economic geography. I later headed the Department of Foreign Trade, for which my travels, my life abroad, my knowledge of economics geography, as well as of languages and customs of various peoples, seemed to fit me. In the heyday of international commerce that followed the war, I was instrumental in building up a large and flourishing department, and my students began to go out into the foreign trade field, and the United States consular service, all over the world.
 “In 1921, I was sent to China for two years as exchange professor and director of the department of business administration at Ling Nam University in Canton, being at the same time a representative of the Carnegie Foundation for World Peace. On my return I took up my work again as professor of foreign trade. A few years later I was sorely tempted to accept an offer of some Chinese government agencies to head a projected college of commerce there, but I decided to remain at my post in the United States. Having now reached the retiring age, I am on half-time, although I still conduct the foreign trade courses.
 “In the last twenty years or so I have supervised the work of one Ph.D. candidate and some forty A.M. candidates. My subject has been a popular one in the Northwest, here on the shore of the Pacific, and I have been called upon to deliver many addresses at conventions and to various civic group on topics connected with the international trade field.
 “My profoundest pleasure has been my contacts with eager minds of young men who want to go out into the great world to implement the gospel of international intercourse and amity through the interchange of material goods and services. At the college age they are still impressionable, and accept, with conviction, the social doctrine of ‛the greatest good to the greatest number.’
 “I have no particularly developed philosophy of life, except perhaps that our mission here must be to help others to get started right, and to live fruitfully and happily. There is no joy so great as that which lies in tried and true friendship, and in devotion to ideals of human service.
 “I am firmly conviced that, after the present war, the nations of the world must form a closer family unit, one for all and all for one; individual nations, politically, yet joined together in an organization that will enforce the peace, see justice done for all, and work for the prosperity and happiness of all. This is the kind of world we want our children and our children’s children to live in, and we must not fail to establish it after the work of the soldier is over, and mankind returns to the pursuits of peace.”
 Skinner was elected to Phi Beta Kappa in his Junior year. He was graduated summa cum laude, with honors in Semitic Languages. He received an A.M. in 1895 and a Ph.D. in 1897. He was a member of the Episcopal Church. During World War I he was adjutant of the Inter-collegiate Intelligence Bureau (later merged into the War Service Exchange), and captain-instructor in the R.O.T.C. during the same period. He has been elected several times, and is at present president of the Pan Xenia, the International Student Foreign Trade Fraternity.
 He has written various articles on Assyrian an Hebrew linguistic problems and the study of German. His publications include: “Review of Heinrich Keiter and Tonny Keller’s Theorie und Technik des Romans un der erzählenden Dichtkunst,” Modern Language Notes, XXIV, 8 December, 1909; “Brief Notes on the Indebtednes of Spielhagen to Dickens,” Journal of English and Germanic Philology, IX, 4, 1910; “Critical Survey of the Biographies of Friedrich Spielhagen,” Modern Language Notes, March, 1911; “Foreign Trade, its Growth and Importance,” Washington Purchasing Agent and Manufacturer, December, 1927; “Some Aspects of the Trade of the Pacific,” Proceedings, 6th Annual Meeting of the Pacific Collegiate Economic Conference, Vancouver, B.

    “We in America emerged from the struggle [World War I] apparently in the healthiest, wealthiest condition it had ever been our fortune to enjoy. […] A new and glorious start for higher peaks of human satisfaction and dazzling world-supremacy – and then we awoke to find it all a dream. Disillusioned we emerged from this Fool’s Paradise into a world of cold and inexorable reality, where the sight of silenced mill and workshop, haunted by the grim specter of want and the unmerited suffering of millions of fellow human beings, plunged us into the depths of sadness and despair. The evil wrought by man in half a generation cannot be repaired in a year or two. But it will be repaired in time, but only by a fundamental setting of the world’s house in order.” – Business Professor M. M. Skinner, December 1931.

Maynard F. Shaw, a fourteen-year-old high-school student, was delivering newspapers on the morning of December 24, 1919. As he came out of a yard on Broad Street opposite Hale Street he saw a large touring car with curtains down drive into Hale Street and stop so that the back wheels were in the gutter of Broad Street. It was a Hudson or Buick or similar car, dark with greenish tint. Two men got out of the car; there was a third man there, but Shaw did not see him get out of the car. The first man had a gun, the other tow had weapons. From a distance of one hundred forty-five or one hundred fifty feet he got a fleeting glance at the face of the man with the shotgun; he could tell from the way the man ran that he was a foreigner. This man was from five feet six to five feet eight or nine, wore a long, dark overcoat, had no hat on, hair not flowing, dark well-kept mustache, a foreign look in his face, complexion dark. He was rather knock-kneed when running. This man fired at the truck when it was about a hundred feet up ahead of him, and again when the truck was just going around behind the streetcar and was only eight or ten feet away from him. Later he ran down after the truck and leveled his gun, but Shaw heard no report. The second man wore a cap, "not black but sort of light," and an overcoat; he fired his revolver at the truck at least once, maybe twice. Shaw could not be sure whether the third man fired. The men got into the automobile. The man with the mustache was Vanzetti. (Source: The Legacy of Sacco and Vanzetti, The Bridgewater assault: The Plymouth Trial – Eyewitnesses of the Assault.)

Memorial Sketch of Mrs. Mary Ann B. McHENRY — She was born at Nictaux, Annapolis, N.S. the second child and only d/o Rev. I.E. and Isabella BILL. He father had been ordained to the pastorate of Nictaux church on 20th March preceding. On the removal of her parents to Fredericton (York Co.) at the close of 1839 to take charge of the Baptist church in that place, Mary Ann entered the Female dept. of the Fredericton Seminary, then in charge of Miss BENNET who had been brought out from England by late Rev. Frederick MILES to fill that position. On the retirement of Miss BENNETT, her position was filled by Mrs. W. NEEDHAM and the daughter continued to enjoy the best advantages which the Seminary could impart until her father’s return to Nictaux. Having no prospect of a school at Nictaux adapted to her advanced stage of progress, she was placed under the tuition of Mrs. MILES, now the wife of Rev. R.W. CUSHMAN of Boston. On the marriage of Miss MILES, the daughter returned to her parents at Nictaux where she remained until the autumn of 1844 when she was taken by her father to Boston and placed in the Baptist Seminary at Charleston. In the 17th year of age, she opened superior school for young ladies in her father’s house at Nictaux. This, so far as we know, was the first Baptist female school of superior type opened in Nova Scotia. On 14th Sept. 1851, she became united in marriage to Thomas McHENRY, Esq., removed to St. John, N.B. and not long after was received by letter from the Nictaux Church into the Germain St. Baptist Church. In married life, she became the mother of six daughters and a few months before her death gave birth to her first and only son. (Source: Christian Visitor Saint John, N.B., Dec. 7, 1865)
