Mary Eleanor Lincoln (cont)

MARY ELEANOR (ELENDER)11 CONNOR (ELLENDER10 LINCOLN, HANANIAH9, THOMAS8, MORDECAI7, MORDECAI6, SAMUEL5, EDWARD F.4, RICHARD G.3, ROBERT H.2, ROBERT1) was born November 28, 1837 in Tell City, Perry Co., IN, and died October 29, 1907 in Tell City, Perry Co., IN.  She married PHILIP HARTWELL SMITH February 27, 1859 in Tell City, Perry Co., IN, son of FRANCIS SMITH and NANCY HARTWELL.  He was born October 21, 1827 in Burke Hollow, Caledonia, VT, and died Bet. March 01 – October 29, 1906 in Tell City, Perry Co., IN.

Notes for MARY ELEANOR (ELENDER) CONNOR:

Phillip Hartwell Smith married Mary Eleanor Connor in 1859. Their

descendents are related to Abraham Lincoln as half cousins as follows:

Mary Eleanor Connor (Ancestors)

Jesse D. Connor x Ellender Lincoln

Hananiah Lincoln x Sarah Jane Jeffries

Thomas Lincoln x Elizabeth Davis

Mordecai Lincoln (b.1686) x Mary Robeson

Mary Robeson was Mordecai Lincoln’s second or third wife (married July,

1729). His first or second wife was Hannah Salter (married 9-9-1714). There

is some argument that Mordecai may have married before Hannah Salter.

Mordecai Lincoln (b. 1686) x Hannah Salter (Descendants)

John Lincoln x Rebecca Flowers

Abraham Lincoln (b.1739) x Bathsheba Herring

Thomas Lincoln x Nancy Hanks

Abraham Lincoln (b. 1809)-the President

Mordecai (1686) was Abe’s greatgreatgrandfather, and he was Mary Eleanor

Connor’s greatgreatgrandfather. Hope this helps………………Jim

Ed Smith writes:

“In an old family Bible that I uncovered in Indianapolis it states that Mary Connor Smith was a second cousin to Abraham Lincoln and was quite intimate with him and canvassed with him on the election trail.”

Notes for PHILIP HARTWELL SMITH:

PHILLIP Smith was born in Caledonia Co., Vt., October 21, 1827, and is the third of five children of Francis and Nancy (Hartwell) Smith, both of whom were of English extraction. In 1837 the parents moved West to Wayne Co., Ind. Philip remained at home with his parents until the age of twenty-nine, at which time he settled on land bought two years before under the Graduation Act of Congress. Since that time he has been a resident of this Co., . In February, 1859, he married Mary E. Connor and by her has seven children, Ernest, Edward C., Elexia, Gertrude, Horace G. Mary and Owen. Edward and Elexia are dead. Our subject in youth served an apprenticeship at the printer’s trade. Since coming here he has followed farming, and now owns 600 acres of land. He was formerly a Republican but is now a Democrat, and has been the nominee of the last named party in this  Co.,  for representative to the State Legislature twice. In 1848 he was associated with Rawson Vaile, of Kokomo, in the publication of the Free Territory Sentinel at Centerville, Wayne Co., Ind., which sheet assisted in the election of George W. Julian, the first anti-slavery member of congress from Indiana.

“Letter from Philip Hartwell Smith to Wm. H. English

Near Bristow   Aug 5th ’88

Hon. Wm H. English

Your letter came to hand in due time but found me very busily engaged in the harvest time of the farm and was laid aside for a more convenient time and then forgotten.

Coming across the letter today I will write, though it may be too late for your book.  The sketch you have is very short and imperfect.

Was born on the 21st of Oct in 1827 in Caledonia Co., in Vermont. Came to Indiana with my parents ten years later.  Entered the office of the “Wayne Co., Record”, published in Old Centreville in ’43 as printer’s devil; ran away before my time was up in 46.  Started and 8 by 10 weekly paper in the town of Milton.  In ‘48, when the great “free soil” uprising was had, I became the boy partner of Rawson Vaile in publishing the “Free Territory Sentinel” and for pay, had the satisfaction of helping to send Geo. W. Julian to Congress.  You are well acquainted with this bit of political history.  I am satisfied with and somewhat proud of the ends we reached.

I am a farmer and belong to no church.

Politics = Well I am a Democrat and all that that means.  I am so much of Democrat that I have a Unknown opinion that the Mills bill is only a halfway measure of relief; but I only say this to discreet Democrats.

I was a charter member of the Republican party and voted the ticket straight up to the candidacy of Peter Cooper.  Since that election I have voted the Democratic ticket.

I have never held office, other than you are informed, and shall never seek to do so.  I am a farmer and only ask for fair play of others in interest for my business.  To this end I shall give some of my time and energy to the success of the Democratic Ticket.  Perhaps with the facts you have and these I give you, you may prepare a sketch that will suit your work.  I wish you much success in the undertaking.

The Democracy of Perry held a rousing  Co.,  convention yesterday.   The crowd was simply immense.  Immense in enthusiasm as well as numbers.  We placed a good  Co.,  ticket in the field and the best of feeling prevailed all along the line.  So you may write us down at headquarters as united, untamed and jubilant Democrats.

Accept regards,

Philip Smith”

Notes for GERTRUDE ELEANOR SMITH:

Mr. Vogel was a friend of Gertrude Eleanor and Andrew after they married.

CONRAD VOGEL, of the firm of Vogel & kehrer, retail liquor dealers, of Rockport, Ind., was born in this  Co.,  January 16, 1844, and is the youngest child of George Vogel, a native of Germany. George Vogel came to America in 1842, and located on a farm in Huff Twp., Spencer Co., where he soon after died. His widow married a brother of her first husband, by whom she bore six children. She died July 14, 1864. Our subject received his education in the old log school house of those times. He followed farming until 1872, when he came to Rockport and engaged in the saloon business with his half brother for one year. For a short time afterward he was in the grocery business, and in 1874 he entered into partnership with Conrad Kehrer, with whom he still continues. He began business with a small capital, but by economy and application he has succeeded in securing a good trade and considerable property. In March, 1874, he married Mary Kohler, a native of this  Co.,  by whom he is the father of five children. Those now living are Anna M. Maggie K. and Wilhelm C.

Notes for ANDREW SMITH:

1900 US Census taken on June 6, 1900 by Charles A. Sugg for the town of Troy, Troy Twp., Perry Co., IN page 6B Dist #115 states the following:

  1. Andrew Smith b. Dec. 1864, in Indiana Mar. 12 years, occup. Hotel Keeper, owns own home free of liens. Both parents born in Germany.
  2. Gertie E. b. Jan 1867, Indiana, Father b. Ohio Mother b. IN
  3. Esther-4; Jessie-7
  4. Also living there is Robert Williams, b. KY, 12/1847, occ. Porter. Also two boarders.

Excerpt from “History of Troy, IN” written July 26, 1966, taken from T.T. Gaesser, 1916.

“The old Nester Hotel building, with its beautiful, hand-cut stone, remains in sad disrepair. Isaac Dunn and Captain Boone, who managed that hotel until the 1937 flood ravaged it, are gone. The Masterson’s Hotel was razed after river commerce failed to support it. Older Trojans still speak avidly of the time Troy’s Volunteer Fire Department fought the blaze in the Livery Stable beside the old Nester Hotel. What a sight it was to see eight men drawing the pumper to the fire, chased by dogs, children and adult spectators! How the red-coated firemen worked the handles of the pumper in fast rhythm to build up pressure! How the thirsty men appreciated a draught of good Troy Beer or Sarsaparilla after the last spark was extinguished!”

The following is transcribed verbatim. Parenthetic remarks, except dates, are made by James Robert Smith. __________________________________________________________________________

From “Keller and Allied Families” by Hermann Keller:

“The three Smith sons who reached adulthood were good businessmen. They were energetic, shrewd, and successful in their enterprises.

Henry Smith married Maggie Bauer (b.8/1/1851–d.    ) daughter of Mathias and Margaretha Bauer. They lived on the Smith homeplace in Perry Co.,. He was engaged in farming and lumber business. After moving to Gentryville and Rockport he moved to Little Rock, Arkansas. They had four daughters and one son.

Andrew Smith married Gertrude Smith April 22, 1888. They lived one mile south of Huffman Mill. He also was engaged in family and lumber business. After selling out he moved to Little Rock, Arkansas where he became a highly successful and prosperous lumber dealer. They had three daughters and two sons: Philip Mary, Jessie, Vivien, and Robert. Andrew made occassional visits back to Indiana to visit his mother’s half-sister Maria (Kress) Keller. The last visit the writer remembers was at the time the Troy State Bank was robbed in which his father and the writer were unwilling participants.”
