Surname Saturday -- HARRIS
Harris is a rather common surname, yet I only have two direct lines in my tree. However, there are 122 in my database because of my interest in this family. Viola wrote me quite a few years ago, asking for some help with her family, I didn't have much to offer, and again she wrote the other day. In checking my file, I was surprised to see that 120 Harris's weren't mine, but hers. The family is from the Stanbridge E., Dunham and Frelighsburg all towns in Canada, near Vermont, and several Vermont towns of my ancestors, many of the allied surnames are familiar, and a few settled in the city where I now live. Based on all these criteria, I'm posting Viola's lineage for my Surname Saturday, with hopes somebody else share's her line.

Can't Read a Will? -- Tuesday's Tip
Have you ever tried to read a will, either an old one or a more recent one? Since I've been blogging, I've transcribed at least 10, and have had problems with reading the handwriting on all of them. The other day, while typing up my most recent for the post for yesterday, I discovered a way to figure out what some of the words were. I don't believe I've ever seen this method before. Being a huge user of Google, I decided to type in some key words, both before my unknown word/s and some key words after the unknown. Below, I give two examples of what I was up against, and Google helped!
I used these Key Words: lastly as to all the rest residue ___ whether real or personal (I knew I was missing about four words).
I used these Key Words: lastly as to all the rest residue ___ whether real or personal (I knew I was missing about four words).
Correct: All the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, whether real, personal.

Correct: Decease her wearing apparel is to be given to my

Copies received from Joan Kaysen in July 2006 and Bradley Griffin in October 2009. Both are distant cousins, and it's taken me this long to discover I had two copies, and this long to transcribe it.
Amanuensis Monday was begun by John Newmark of the TransylvanianDutch blog. The term means, "a person employed to write what another dictates or to copy what has been written by another." Many bloggers enjoy doing this because it allows them to freely copy something that has been written.

Tombstone Tuesday -- No Bull, You Need to Look at all 4 Sides
After doing 98 Tombstone Tuesday entries for this blog and entering hundreds to Find-A-Grave.com, I am still learning new things. On a recent trip to Newport, Rhode Island, I took many photos, including several in the Coddington Cemetery, seen below. Why shouldn't I take a photo of the largest stone, the lighting was semi-perfect. Once home, I discovered I hadn't a clue what family this stone was for, no surname was listed! Apparently, I didn't walk around it, as I always tell people to do it...there are four sides. The biggest isn't always the best. Fortunately, I went to the Find-A-Grave site and able to see others listed for that cemetery, including who these two women were married to, it was Henry Bull. The site says he was an "American Colonial Governor. He emigrated to America in 1635 and settled in Roxbury, Massachusetts." Henry is listed on one of the sides of this stone. I was lucky, once again.

Edward Cross and Arizona's First Newspaper
"Edward Cross, born in Lancaster, New Hampshire in 1832, began working as a printer for his local paper, the Coos Democrat, when he was 15 years old. He then moved on to Cincinnati, Ohio, where he worked as a printer for the Cincinnati Times. Demonstrating writing skills, he served for a time as the paper’s Washington Correspondent. He became involved with directors of the Sonora Exploring and Mining Company and moved west in 1857. He settled in Tubac, Arizona Territory, where he invested in the company’s mines and established the territory’s first newspaper, The Weekly Arizonian. The Washington printing press was brought to Tubac by Cross and his associate, William Wrightson, via the “Jackass Mail,” as the mule teams were called, and was used to print the first issue on March 3, 1859.
Cross, serving as editor of the paper, had strong convictions. He took exception to a number of articles written by Sylvester Mowry of Tucson that were published in Eastern newspapers. He criticized them for inflating the size of the local population and the magnitude of local mining operations. Mowry challenged Cross to a duel, which took place on July 8, 1859. Using Burnside rifles, four shots were fired before Mowry’s gun failed, entitling him to another shot. Cross stood waiting unarmed. Mowry refused to fire at an unarmed man, thus ending the duel. Both men exchanged apologies in person and in the Arizonian. The paper was sold a few weeks later, ironically to Mowry. He moved the press to Tucson where it was used to print the first issue of the Citizen and possibly theStar. Later it printed the Tombstone Nugget. In 1910, the press was donated to the Arizona Historical Society. The press ultimately returned to Tubac after an absence of 120 years in 1980, where it was installed in the period print shop at the Tubac Presidio State Historic Park Museum.
In addition to his writing and mining interests, Cross joined the U.S. Army scouts in their efforts against the Apaches. In 1860, he crossed the border into Mexico to command a Sonoran army garrison supporting the insurgency of Benito Juarez. At the outbreak of the Civil War, Cross returned to New Hampshire where he accepted a commission as colonel of the Fifth New Hampshire Volunteer Regiment.
Cross was reportedly an impulsive and colorful officer, occasionally striking non-commissioned officers with the flat of his sword when angry. He was known to wear a red bandana on his head instead of the traditional officer’s hat. This was his way of making himself easier to spot on the battlefield by his men. However, on July 2, 1863 Maj. Gen. Winfield S. Hancock noticed that his bandana was black rather than red. Cross indicated that he had foreseen his own death and that black was more appropriate. Cross fought in the Battle of Gettysburg that day and was mortally wounded while helping to stabilize the left flank as it entered the Wheatfield. He fell near Rose Woods and died the next day at a field hospital. His body was shipped home to Lancaster and laid to rest in the town’s cemetery."
My cousin, Larry McGrail forwarded this link to me in September 2011. Edward Cross is my first cousin, five times removed.
