| 3 | . An account of the death of Anthony Mills: Some members of the Mills Hammons family had killed a bear. Several brothers, sisters, in-laws had met to have a feast. The men had prepared the bear for cooking and the women were doing the cooking for the feast. Meantime, the men were trying out a new rifle at a spot. Anthomy went to replace the spot and the rifle was accidently fired by a brother of Lucretia, Anthony's wife, and Anthony was struck by the bullet and died. It was said no bear was eaten that day.

| 21 | A Life Remembered and Cherished Shirley Louise Bishop Kent was born on a farm south of Woodburn, Iowa on December 25, 1928 to Dave and Nora Bishop. Shirley passed away on Thursday, July 18, 2019 surrounded by her loving family. She was one of twelve children. Shirley attended Redwing Rural School through eighth grade and graduated from Lacona High School as part of the Class of 1948. While in high school Shirley worked as a waitress and a rural telephone operator to help purchase her clothing and books. Shirley was united in marriage to Keith Kent on March 13, 1949 at the home of her older sister, Wilda Clark, in Lacona, Iowa. Keith and Shirley recently celebrated 70 years of marriage. To this union four children were born: Daniel Eugene, Victoria Louise, Mary Beth, and Oscar Kevin. In 1950 Keith and Shirley started a soil conservation business for farmers which later developed into a successful construction business known as Keith E. Kent, Inc. Together they operated this business for 35 years. Shirley maintained the books, managed the office, and kept Keith in line over the two-way radio. Shirley was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Shirley showed her love through her cooking, baking, quilting, and gardening. Everyone loved to see Shirley walk into a family gathering with one of her famous pies, tea rings, or homemade rolls. Shirley?s talents in these areas will live on in her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren who continue to use her recipes today. Each grandchild is blessed to have received a quilt made by Shirley when they were married and each great grandchild received a quilt upon their birth. All members of the family look forward to receiving a hand written birthday card from Shirley every year. Throughout her 90 years of life Shirley?s strong presence could be felt throughout the community of Lucas. Shirley served as a Sunday school teacher and board member of the Lucas Presbyterian Church where she and Keith were longtime members. Shirley was a 4-H leader when her children were active in 4-H. Keith and Shirley, along with other community members, helped to establish the Lucas Betterment Committee which continues to serve the community of Lucas. Shirley served tirelessly in the Lucas Community Center kitchen and volunteered weekly at the John L. Lewis museum. For those who don't know, Shirley was a bit of a legend at the Lucas Farmers and Miners Bank. Her quick thinking assisted in the apprehension of two criminals who robbed the bank while Shirley was there for business. Shirley is preceded in death by her parents and ten of her siblings. Left to cherish Shirley's memories are her husband, Keith, her four children Daniel (Deb), Victoria (Ron) Boyd, Mary Beth (Gary) Boyd, Kevin (Debbie), her nine grandchildren, Aaron (Jody) Boyd, Danica (Chris) Harris, Ryan Boyd, Derek (Kelli) Kent, Nicholas (Kristen) Boyd, Jody (Tanner) Sandy, Natalie (David) Braun, Abbey (Randy) Metzger, Kayla (Brandon) Bond, 22 great-grandchildren and her sister, Jean Chipp. Shirley's life will be celebrated as follows: Visitation from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm on Sunday, July 21, 2019 at Fielding Funeral Home in Chariton, Iowa. Funeral service to be held Monday, July 22, 2019 at 10:30 am at Fielding Funeral Home. Graveside burial service to immediately follow at Rose Hill Cemetery in Lucas, Iowa. In lieu of flowers the family requests memorials be given to the Lucas Presbyterian Church. | Bishop, Shirley Louise (P33)

| 22 | A life well lived?Keith Eugene Kent was born on September 17, 1929 to Oscar and Mary Kent. Keith passed away on Saturday, August 16, 2025 surrounded by members of his loving family. The youngest of five boys, Keith grew up on a farm, learning how to work and love the land alongside his father, mother and four brothers, Oliver, Roy, Harry, and Glenn Kent. Keith attended primary school in one of the last rural school houses in Lucas County, Iowa. In early years Keith worked as a paper boy and attended Lucas High School where he graduated valedictorian of his class. When praised for this accomplishment, with a twinkle in his eye, he would make sure to let everyone know his high school class was "a class of five boys." Keith was united in marriage to Shirley Bishop on March 13, 1949 at the home of Shirley's older sister in Lacona, Iowa. To this union four children were born, Daniel Eugene, Victoria Louise, Mary Beth, and Oscar Kevin. In 1951 Keith and Shirley began a soil conservation business for farmers. Growing up working alongside his father, Keith saw the need for conservation work and could often be heard making the statement "conservation does not cost, it pays!" This business later developed into a successful construction business known as Keith E. Kent, Inc. Together, Keith and Shirley ran this business for 33 years with Keith at the helm while continuing to build his own farming corporation located in south-central Iowa. After retiring from the construction business, Keith continued farming full time, raising beef cattle, and supporting Shirley's love of baking by serving as the number one taste tester of her famous apple pie. Keith was baptized on April 11, 1965 and became a member of the Lucas Presbyterian Church where he volunteered and served for many years. In his later years he attended the First United Methodist Church in Chariton. Keith knew and loved to talk about the hope he had in Jesus, his Lord and Savior. Throughout his 95 years of life, Keith's strong presence could be felt throughout the community of Lucas. Keith took pride in supporting efforts to build the John L. Lewis Museum and helped to build what is currently known as the Lucas Community Center while serving as a longtime member of the Paul Revere Lodge #638. In 2002, Keith was inducted into the Lucas County Outstanding Cattleman's Hall of Fame and in 2020, Keith, along with his son, Kevin Kent was awarded the 70th Anniversary in Business Award from the Chariton Area Chamber Main Street for their combined years in the construction business. Both honors were well-deserved recognitions for a man who loved the land, cherished his family, and could often be heard making the statement, "We have so much to be thankful for!" Keith is preceded in death by his parents, Oscar and Mary, his four brothers, and his loving wife of 70 years, Shirley (Bishop) Kent. Left to live his legacy are his four children Daniel (Deb), Victoria (Ron) Boyd, Mary Beth (Gary) Boyd, Kevin (Debbie), and his nine grandchildren, Aaron (Jody) Boyd, Danica (Chris) Harris, Ryan Boyd, Derek (Kelli) Kent, Nicholas (Kristen) Boyd, Jody (Tanner) Sandy, Natalie (David) Braun, Abbey (Randy) Metzger, Kayla (Brandon) Bond, and 27 great-grandchildren. Keith's life will be celebrated as follows: Visitation from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm on Wednesday, August 20, 2025 at Pierschbacher Funeral Home in Chariton, Iowa. Funeral service to be held Thursday, August 21, 2025 at 10:00 am at Pierschbacher Funeral Home. Graveside burial service to immediately follow at Rose Hill Cemetery in Lucas, Iowa. In lieu of flowers the family requests memorials be given to the First United Methodist Church in Chariton, Iowa and the Paul Revere Lodge in Lucas, Iowa. | Kent, Keith (P34)

Sally Ann O'Dell Caleb died October 9, 1864, in Coffey, Davies County, Missouri Data for the above bio and the location of Caleb's burial was obtained from Marion O'Dell's book "The O'Dell Family" The following is extracted from portions of "The Cabin In The Middle Of The Excelsior Springs Golf Course Clubhouse by the Missouri Historical Company: In 1819, Caleb and his family along with his father Isaac and two of his brothers left Cocke County, Tennessee to settle in Missouri territory. The men constructed their own boat and floated down the Big Pigeon River, the French Broad River, the Tennessee River and the Ohio River. They went upstream n the Mississippi River to Old Franklin. From there, they traveled across country to Ray County. | O'Dell, Caleb (I210)
|
| 29 | Departed Liverpool, England and arrived 24 Jun 1912 in Quebec, Canada. Grandma Irene Paavola stated that his family had left for the state while he was gone training reindeer. Upon learning this he saved his money to be a ticket to get to the US. He had a ticket for the Titanic but missed the ship and ended up taking the next ship. I believe that Henry ended up on the SS Canada which was part of a passenger service jointly operated by the White Star Line and Dominion Line (the Titanic was part of the White Star Line). The Titanic departed on 10 April 1912 so the story that he missed the Titanic is plausible. | Paavola, Heikki Samuli (P20)

In 1780 he served under Captn Wiulliam Herritage and Major Pasteur, Three Months He left a will which was evidently destroyed in the Pitt County NC Courthouse fire, for references to it were made in subsequent land deeds. Nasby had extensive land holdings in the Black Jack area which he passed on to his children. The names of Nasby and Keziah "Kizzie" have been passed down for many generations, even until today. Nasby was a soldier in the Revolutionary War, and was pensioned as such. His pension records are in the North Carolina State Archives. | Mills, Nasby III (I123)

| 35 | From Internet [1]: Jesse C. Turnage enrolled in the Missouri Militia October 2, 1862. The story goes that on 18 July 1864, 2LT Turnage was on leave and working in his fields in Ray County, Missouri. "Bloody Bill" Anderson and his gang of guerrillas came upon Turnage, and knowing his role in the Militia, tied him up and interrogated him. Anderson then decided that Turnage would die and a member of his gang cut the Soldier's throat. The story continues that the gang then went to the Turnage family home and forced Turnage's wife, Esther, to make them food. A tragic story, but is it true? This incident took place in Ray County, Missouri, and I can find no copy of the local newspaper for that date. Library holdings stop a week prior to 18 July 1864. But such an event must have been recorded in the daily reports of the 51st EMM. The Cornell University Library has digitized the entire volume of The Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies. In this publication I was able to find a report dated 18 July 1864 from Joseph E. Black to Brigadier General Clinton B. Fisk. The report states in part: "On the 18th they [guerrillas] passed northwest of Richmond, about seven miles from the city, murdering Lieutenant Turnage, of company D, Fifty-first Regiment Enrolled Missouri Militia...Lieutenant Turnage was shot three times in the head and his throat was cut from ear to ear." | Turnage, Jesse Calvin (P65)
