First Man Married in Utah -- Westover - Sunday Obituary

Charles Beal Westover was my 2nd cousin, 5 times removed.  See FindAGrave for copy of cemetery stone, and death certificate.


"Charles Westover, Sr.
First Man Married in Utah Passes Away
Charles Westover, Sr. passed peacefully away in this city at about 11:30 a.m. Monday, Nov. 3, 1919, of the infirmities of old age. He managed to get about until the day before he died, getting out on to the porch of his home to get his photograph taken, along with his wife on the Friday preceding his death.


Charles Westover, Sr., was born at Licking, Ohio, Nov. 25, 1827, a son of Alexander and Electa Westover. His mother and brother joined the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and went to Winter quarters, Charles accompanying them and being baptized into the church at Winter Quarters by Apostle Erastus Snow in the spring of 1848. He crossed the plains in Capt. Brigham Young’s company and it was while crossing the plains that he met his wife, Eliza Ann Haven, who was loading oxen when he first met her. 


Mrs. Westover, whose memory is still very keen, relates what she considers the most exciting incident during the long toilsome journey as follows: The company was encamped near the Platte River when a very large herd of buffalo, estimated at between four and five thousand came to the river to drink. The whole company were afraid that this vast number of animals might stampede in their direction and felt considerably relieved when they left. When arriving in Utah Mr. Westover settled in Great Salt Lake City. 


When Apostle Erastus Snow was about to leave on a mission for Denmark in the fall of 1849, he asked young Westover to take charge of his place while he was away, and advised him to get married. Westover and Miss Haven were agreeable and they were married by President Brigham Young in Apostle Erastus Snow’s house on Oct. 14, 1849. 


They were the first couple to be married in Utah and celebrated their 70th Anniversary of their wedding day on Oct. 14th this year. 


Of this marriage there were 11 children, seven of whom are living, also 45 grandchildren, 67 great grandchildren, and two great great grandchildren. The children are Charles Westover Jr., of Washington; Mrs. L. Redd, of Bluff, San Juan Co.; Mrs. H. A. Gracey of San Francisco, CA,; who is here taking care of her parents; Mrs. L. S. conger of this city; William A. Westover of Washington; L. B. Westover of Lewiston, Utah; and Mrs. A. A. Paxman of Washington. 


Besides this family a second wife and family are living at Huntington, Utah, they are: Mrs. Mary Shumway Westover, wife; two sons George and Alberto; and two daughters, Mrs. Julia Rowley and Mrs. Louisa Johnson. 


Mrs. Eliza Westover is the only person living who received her endowments in the Nauvoo Temple. She is 90 years old and enjoys good health; she spends most of her time knitting; her memory is keen, but she is deaf to a considerable extent. While her husband was engaged in the Indian War in the early days she melted lead in a spoon and made the bullets which he used. 


Mr. Westover was granted an Indian War pension in Jun, 1918. 


Mr. and Mrs. Westover came to Saint George in the fall of 1861, being called to the Dixie Mission to settle this country. They moved to Pinto in 1869 and stayed there 13 years, moving thence to Washington where they resided until three years ago when they made their home here. All the children by the first wife except Lewis were here with their father when he passed away. 


Mr. Westover was of a kindly disposition and a cheerful temperament. He suffered considerably toward the last with severe pains in his chest, but bore up with fortitude and looked longingly toward the end when he would go to meet his reward. He was faithful to the end and sought a glorious home in the great beyond. 


Funeral services will be held in the tabernacle this afternoon."

Surname Report -- Saturday Night Genealogy Fun

It has been a long time since I participated in Randy Seaver's Saturday Night Genealogy Fun project. But I'm game tonight. Lots of fun and interesting. His instructions were:


1)  Go into your Genealogy Management Program (GMP; either software on your computer, or an online family tree) and figure out how to Count how many surnames you have in your family tree database.

2)  Tell us which GMP you're using and how you did this task.

3)  Tell us how many surnames, and if possible, which Surname has the most entries.  If this excites you, tell us which surnames are in the top 5!

4)  Write about it in your own blog post, in a comment to this blog post, or in a status or comment on Facebook.


It is rather interesting that Randy and I are almost the same when it comes to total of names. I have 39,849 per RootsMagic and my RootsWeb tree. He and I are also cousins several times, so share a few surnames.


To do my report, I used RootsMagic4 and located the Create a Report option, then the Lists and found the Surname Statistics list, then the Frequency of surnames. Within seconds I had a report of 98 pages. Fortunately, no unknowns because I list the women with the husbands, as Mary w/o John Westover.


In my list below, the last two names, Adams and Poole were probably numbers 15 and 19, but since I wanted to display them for my benefit, so I deleted other names (Davis, Hess, Lay, Cressey, Bockus, Cross, Newell, Steevens, Mead, Wilder, Fitch and Wyckoff).

A Mixed Table Setting

My silverware is a combination from sets belonging to both grandparents. My Bishop grandparents had Gorham, the pattern is Fairfax. My Poole grandparents had the ornate pattern by Towle, called Old Colonial.

Both sets of grandparents married in 1918, one in Connecticut, the other in Illinois. It is clear that the women had different tastes.

Both pieces have initials, the B is clearly seen, the pattern first made around 1900.

There is an A on the back of a fancy serving spoon. The A stands for my grandmother's maiden name, Adams and the pattern was first manufactured in 1895.

Both patterns are still manufactured.

From each pattern I was fortunate to receive a setting of four.

Wordless Wednesday -- A Cute Two Year Old

My Father

Clarence Frederic Poole -- Sunday Obituary

The below obituary is for my grandfather. It was obtained from the Evanston Historical Society. Unfortunately, I still haven't seen a photo of where he and his wife are buried in Skokie Memorial Park, Skokie, Illinois. Thanks to Susan and Carol's comments, I called the cemetery for plot location, then I posted the names and all data to FindAGrave and requested a photo be taken by a volunteer.


I recall meeting my grandfather twice, once in Evanston, Illinois and once in Boston, when he took us to eat at the Parker House. When my husband and I ate there last year, the memory of my grandfather's visit came back, after 50 years.


August 27, 1957


"Clarence Frederic Poole, 65, of 2741 Eastwood Avenue, died Sunday in Evanston Hospital.  Mr. Poole had just moved to the Eastwood Avenue address after living three years at 2517 Central Street.  Previously he lived 30 years at 1319 Greenwood Street.


A native Evanstonian, Mr. Poole was a patent lawyer with Parker and Carter in Chicago.  He served several years on the patent law committee of the National Association of Manufacturers and in 1954 was president of the Chicago Patent Law Association.


He attended the old Lincoln school at Main Street and Forest Avenue, and Evanston High School and was a graduate of the University of Michigan and the Northwestern law school.  He was a member of Sigma Phi, which he joined at Michigan, Westmoreland Country Club and the University Club of Chicago.


Surviving are his wife, Marie Stephenson Poole; two children, John Adams Poole of Lexington, Mass., and Mrs. Judith Goff of Northbrook; two step-children, Mrs. Lynn Carver, 1834 Asbury Avenue, and William H. Stephenson of Santa Barbara, Cal.; one sister Mrs. Edward H. Ludlow of Winnetka, and seven grandchildren.


Services were Wednesday afternoon in St. Mark's Episcopal church, with Dr. Paul Elmen officiating.  Burial was in Memorial Park."
