Lois Everingham
Lois Everingham was born January 23, 1922 to
William George and Barbara (Siddle) Everingham
in Onaway, Presque Isle County, MI. Lois was raised from time-
parents George & Maggie Everingham of Onaway. Lois married
Robert DeHaven, son of Amos & Leafy DeHaven. They never had any
children.
Lois and Robert spent winters in Florida, and
lived near Black Lake just north of the town of Onaway during the
summer months. See their photos on page 120.
Lyle Everingham
Lyle Everingham, known as "Lyle Jr.," was born in Onaway, MI
to Kenneth Lyle & Tena Everingham. He grew up in Onaway and entered
the U.S. Army. At age 21, Lyle left his tour of duty in the South Pacific
and returned to his family who had moved to Adrian, where he accepted
what he thought was a temporary job, at Kroger's Supermarket. He
stocked shelves and his brother Robert and four sisters also worked there.
Lyle was ambitious and rose from a starting position,
to become a
Store manager, then District manager, and
then General District manager.
Later, Lyle became the
manager of operations for Kroger and finally became vice president
of
produce merchandising. The corporation elected Lyle Corporate Vice President in
1965
and he became a board member in 1970. He served the company in various
capacities and
was elected President of Kroger foods in 1977 and CEO in
1978. He held that position for
several years and retired from Kroger in
1991. Lyle has served as trustee and set on several
corporate boards. In
2002, he was awarded the Great Living Cincinnatian Award by the Cin-
cinnati,
Ohio Chamber of Commerce.
Lyle lives in Ohio, and Naples, Florida with
his wife Rlene. After contacting Lyle in
2000, He graciously wrote back
about remembering Dale and Leora Everingham, and Dale's
parents, and several
of the Everingham relatives of Onaway, Michigan. Lyle & Rlene's
chil-
dren are; Nancy, Mark, and Christina Everingham.

Robert
George Everingham
Robert George Everingham was born April 10, 1928 to
Kenneth Lyle Everingham and Tena (Smith) Everingham. Robert
wrote in
April of 2001 that he was named after his grandfather
George and George's
brother Robert (see generation 5). Robert
says that he lived in Onaway,
Presque Isle County, through his
high-school years. He then moved to Adrian,
where he went to
work for the Kroger Company. He worked for them in
Pitts-
burgh, Pennsylvania and transferred to Texas in 1968. Robert
lived
in the Houston area with his wife Marie and 7 children.
Robert and Marie had
2 boys; Thomas Allen Everingham of Con-
Page
115
roe, Texas, and Michael P. Everingham of Tampa,
Florida. Their 5 daughters all
live in the Houston area and include;
Shari, Joy, Michele, Karen, and Jill.
When Robert corresponded with me
in 2001, he and Marie has been married for 52 years.
He went on to explain
his memories of his family from Northern Michigan;
"I knew both Dale and
Leora Everingham well, Leora and my mother Tena were
friends. My father
Kenneth (better known as Gus) and Dale did some fishing together
and I
remember Dale coming to my grandparents farm and visiting. I also remember
Dale's parents, Charlie and Clara. When I was staying at the farm with my
grandpar-
ents we used to take an occasional Sunday drive to visit them out
highway 68 between
Onaway & Atlanta. I do remember Dale's store on the
highway. It was small, with a
gas pump. I remember Cliff, Dale's brother,
and I knew Inez Everingham. I think Edith
Graves and Alice Manning were
sisters of George and Charlie Everingham. Edith had
a son Lloyd Graves, who
was close friends of my mother and father. The Manning's also
had a grocery
store located on the main street of Onaway across the street from the
court
house. Both the Manning's and the Graves' had cottages at Black Lake. Later
af-
ter the death of Edith's husband she bought a small acreage from
grandpa's farm and
lived in a small 1 room home on the corner of the farm
across from the town hall."

ately liked him and felt
like he was family.
Marie
and Bob flew in to Michi-
gan from Texas, to visit
with some of the family
and we were all glad to
see
them.

his own life. Elmer L.
Bowers was the son of William Bowers and Cora
Waterhouse. William was a northern Michi-

Charles was married to Evaline Day in 1896. Evaline was

Neva Mae
Everingham
Neva Mae was the fifth child of Raymond
& Leora
Everingham. She was named after Neva
Graves, daughter of Frank & Maude
Graves.
Frank was the brother of Clara Graves who mar-
ried Charlie
Everingham. Charlie & Clara
(Graves) Everingham were Neva Mae
Evering-
ham's grandparents.
Neva was born March 15, 1940.
Her fam-
ily moved to Montcalm County in 1957. She was
the first in her
family to graduate from Carson City
Schools in Montcalm County. Her previous
sib-
lings had gone through school in Onaway. Page 128
Gerry was only 17 when he and Neva planned to marry. Due to
his age, he could not
get married locally. Neva and Gerry traveled to Iowa
with her father and sister Edith, to get
married. On September 23, 1959,
Neva married Gerald Bruce Springsteen in Davenport, Iowa.
Gerry was a local
boy, who was schooled in Carson City, MI. He was a successful farmer &
the son of Owen W. (b.1914) & Edna E. (b.1918) Springsteen, who were
also local farmers.
Owen had a brother named Jay C. Springsteen who was a
local builder in the Carson City area.
Gerry's grandparents were John J.
Springsteen (1866-1952), and Viola V. Smith (1874-1938).
Neva and
Gerry had three children who lived to adulthood, and one baby who died at
birth May 30, 1962. Their other children were; Pamela Sue (b.1960), Gerald
Wayne (b.1964),
and Betsy Jean (b.1971). Neva and Gerry organized many
family reunions in the 1970's and
1980's. By the time they retired from
farming, Neva & Gerry had built up an estate of many
acres of prime
farming land and old farmhouses, between Fenwick and Carson City, in
Mont-
calm County.

Marvin N.
Everingham Marvin Neil Everingham,
known
as "Marv" was born January 2,
1944 in Yipsilanti, MI.
He was the
last child of Ray-
mond & Leora Everingham, and the
only child not
born in Onaway, MI.

She was the daughter of Richard B. Platte (b.1921) and
Muriel Ann Hale (b.1923) from Lans-
ing, MI. Claudette had three brothers;
Ron, Rex, and Raymond. They were the grandchildren of;
·
(fathers side) Louis Platte (b.1893) & Sophia Ann Trierweiler (b.1892).

A link to the HALE family
and the Michigan Cavalry
The Hale family is a long time colonial
American family having lived in America since
it was the English Colonies.
Levi Hale was born in the early 1800s, probably in New York or
Vermont. He
died April 24, 1883 in Eaton County, Michigan. Levi married Asenath Baker, a
former resident of Vermont. She was born between 1812 & 1822 in Vermont
and died June 28,
1884 in Eaton County, Michigan. Levi and Asenath had five
children; Daniel Levi, George I.,
Ezra, Mary, and Wealthy. Page 129
Julia & Veni Hale 1905 |
August 8, 1862, George I. Hale, age 19, enlisted at
Eaton Rapids, MI as a
private in Company D. of the 7th
Michigan Cavalry. It is astonishing that a
Civil War soldier
survived from 1862 to 1865 during nearly constant battle
without being injured. George later married Alice Bentley
and had two
sons; Laurence, and Clarence.
Daniel was not quite as lucky as his
brother George
during the Civil War. Daniel was wounded twice but each
time returned to battle. He enlisted in 1862, as Union Sol-
dier, in
Company D. of the 7th Michigan Cavalry, in the
same unit as his brother,
under the command of George
Armstrong Custer of Monroe, MI. This is the same
famous
Custer, who is now known best for his demise by Indians
popularly
called "Custer's last stand." In the Civil War era,
General Custer was a
well known and respected leader who's
battles have been written about in
countless books. Records
show that Daniel may have been transferred to the
10th MI
Cavalry. His pension card lists Daniel L. Hale, and his wife
as
Mary A. Hale, and shows that he served in the 7th and
10th Michigan Cavalry.
Daniel Hale married in 1866 and
had 2 children. Early pioneer families in
Michigan had rough times and Daniel's life in the
1860's was a harsh example
of how rough pioneer life could be. At different dates in 1869,
both
children and his wife died. His son's death record shows a cause of death as
"inflamation
of the brain". He then moved to his father's home in Eaton
County.
It was about 1871, when Daniel married Mary Barr of Benton, MI.
They had seven
children; Clara Viola, Emma, Wilbur A, Avenial Burdette,
Ethel Ina, Iva Blanch, & William
Henry.
Avenial Burdette Hale
was born October 5, 1878 in Mecosta County, MI. Veni, as he
was known,
married in 1905 to Julia Edith Macklin (b.1887), from Marshall County, Indiana.
Their children were; Claude Burdette Hale (b.1906), Russell D. Hale
(b.1913), Pearl Edith Hale
(b.1916), Howard Hale (b.1919), and Muriel Ann
Hale (b.1923). Muriel married Richard B.
Platte in 1944 and had four
children. Which brings us to some German relatives, the Platte's.
PLATTE
Family of Westphalia
Eberhard and Theresa Platte left Bremen Germany
aboard the ship Leontine, in August
of 1836. They arrived in the port of New
York October 3, 1836. They traveled along the Erie
Canal and landed in
Detroit Michigan October 25th. The ships passengers stayed behind while
the
leaders, Father Anton Kopp, and Eberhard Platte met with Father Martin Kundig of
St.
Mary's Parish in Detroit for travel directions. The two men set off on
foot, on what was known
as the Dexter Trail. They passed Ann Arbor, Dexter,
Chelsea, Stockbridge, Mason, Lansing
and DeWitt, on foot. They arrived at
the land office in Ionia on November 4th where they had
to wait six days.
Father Kopp and Eberhard purchased 560 acres of land for the group, where
St. Mary's Parish and Westphalia would later be established.
Five
men, Anton Cordes, Joseph Platte, John Hanses, William Tillmann, and John Salter
met Father Kopp and Eberhard Platte in Lyons, near Ionia. A hired trapper
guided them to their Page 130
land holdings. Those original seven men named the settlement
Westphalia after a familiar
area of their homeland in Germany. In
mid-November, they gathered up the rest of their
families who had been
waiting in Detroit. In March of 1838, a two room log house was
completed
that served as the first church in Westphalia, Clinton County, MI. Eberhard
set-
tled his family in Lyons, Ionia County, Michigan until he bought 45
acres in Westphalia in
1843.
Theresia (Baltes) Platte was born in
1812 in Westphalia Germany and died in 1878 in
Westpahlia, Clinton County,
Michigan. Theresia and Eberhard had ten children. Their sec-
ond born was
Ferdinand who married Maria Mary Snitgen. Ferdinand and Mary had eight
children. In 1858, they named their first son Eberhard, after Ferdinand's
father. This Eber-
hard married Mary Pohl and had eight children. Three of
their children married into the Tri-
erweiler family, also from Germany.
Eberhard and Mary's son Louis was born in 1893 in
Westpahlia, MI and married
Sophia Ann Trierweiler in 1916. Their son Richard B. Platte
was born in 1921
in Westphalia, and died in 1985 in Lansing, MI. Richard is buried at Ma-
ple
Ridge Cemetery in Holt, MI. He married Muriel A. Hale in 1944 and had Ronald
Lee,
Rex Lyle, Claudette Ann, and Raymond Lewis Platte. He later married
Margery Barnhart.
Claudette married Marvin N. Everingham in 1966.
Marv & Claudette had two children; Kevin (b.1967) &
Laurie (b.1969). Additional
miscarriages ended their family at two. Marv
& Claudette divorced about 1982.
Marv married Tarry Stearns at
Mud Lake, Onaway, MI October 23, 1982.
Tarry was the daughter of Donald A.
Stearns (1926-2002) & Phyllis I. Morris (b.1927). Don
was the son of
Frank Stearns and Emma Greenhoe of Sheridan, MI. Tarry had two sons
from her
previous marriage, Troy & Patrick Jensen. The Jensen boys and Marv's son and
daughter visited during the summers in Onaway, Presque Isle County, MI.
Marv & Tarry lived in Onaway, and later Afton, and managed the
Onaway Discount
Store. Later, Tarry worked for Brewbakers Furniture in
Onaway. They started the "Sports-
R-US" sporting goods shop, near Afton and
ran that for a few years. Marv later worked for
the Cheboygan Tribune
newspaper. He was also the supervisor & assessor of Walker town-
ship,
Cheboygan County,

MONTCALM COUNTY, MICHIGAN
The County was formed
in 1831 from Ionia county. According to records, Judge Epaph-
roditus Ransom,
later a Governor, made the first purchase of land there. Although a large county
in Michigan, Montcalm is very rural. It's largest city today is Greenville,
although Stanton was
much larger than it is today, back in it's early
logging days. Montcalm County consists of But-
ternut, Carson City, Crystal,
Edmore, Fenwick, Greenville, Howard City, Lakeview, McBride,
Pierson,
Sheridan, Sidney, Six Lakes, Stanton, Trufant, Vestaburg and several other small
towns
and villages.
Our family nests of
Butternut, Carson City
& Crystal
The first settlement in Carson City was located along
the Fish Creek and was established
in 1852. It was named by one of the first
settlers whose home was Carson City, Nevada. Both saw
mills and lumbering
were profitable ventures in this settlement. It was incorporated as a village in
1887, but not as a city until 1960.
The village of Crystal is
situated near the east shore of the lake. The first settlement in this
vicinity was made by Enos P. Drake who in the year 1857 built a small
dwelling house and saw-
mill, the latter on the outlet of Mud lake. Drake
built the first mill. The first framed building was
the Eagle hotel. The
village was laid out by Asa Ward on land owned by Mr. Burtch and Mr.
Drake.
Today, Crystal's town and outlying homes and businesses completely surround the
lake. Page 136
The Everingham family and their related ancestors and
descendants have probably lived
in most areas of Montcalm County. But the
Everingham's did not arrive until 1957. R. Dale &
Leora Everingham and
their family moved to the area and started R&L Grocery, in Butternut.
They lived at Carson City & Crystal Lake. Various other family members
followed including
Dale's parents Charlie & Clara Everingham, and Dale's
brother Clifford and his wife Theal &
family. Leora's father, William
Morgan Sr,, and her brother, Bill Morgan's family also located
to Montcalm
County's Carson City area. Local related families from the area also include;
Neigh, Bowers, Higbee, Stevenson, Johnson, Johnston, Prentler, Sabin,
Stoner, Springsteen,
Morris, Stearns, and many others. Page 137
postcard photo
Caswell Building, Carson City, MI |
R&L Grocery
changed hands
when founder R.
Dale
Everingham
retired in 1967(or 1970?).
Ownership became
a joint venture by
brothers Gene and
Marv Everingham
with Marv selling
out to Gene
and his
wife Clara. They
managed the store
until his death in
1991. The family
retained R&L for a
few years, before
selling the property
to Baker Marine.
Gene also owned
several
other busi-
ness' and buildings
in the Butternut and
Carson City
area.
Marv Ever-
ingham was also a
business minded
person. He
started
out in the area
working for Geller
Chevrolet in Carson
City,
which later
became Jensen
Chevrolet. He and
his first wife Clau-
dette also ran a fur-
niture store in Car-
son, called
C&M
furniture in the
1970s. I distinctly remember the sidewalk sales
and huge celebration of the bicentennial in
1976. Red White & Blue and
USA Flags everywhere. Fire hydrants and even houses were
painted red, white
& blue.
In the back of the furniture store was a pool hall that
was accessed from the ally. It
was the equivalent of an arcade business of
the late 20th century. Local kids played pool, air
hockey, foosball, and the
big attraction of the era, pinball machines. They held contests and
pool
tournaments for the local kids, in the pool hall. Page 138
If you read about the "Caswell" building on the previous
page, you will see that it men-
tions the building having an opera-house
upstairs. As a young child, I remember finding old
postcards and stamps in
the opera house offices. The old black cast iron & stained wood thea-
ter
seats were nice for their time, but would have been terribly uncomfortable to
set in for very
long. The treasure-trove of boxes that we would rummage
through in the upstairs had "turn-of-
the-century" clothing and discarded
items, that would have excited historians & antique dealers
even back
then, in the 1970s.
Eugene Everingham also owned several businesses
around Butternut and Carson City
that were similar to the Caswell building.
He had an auction house in Carson City for many
years. Other relatives also
owned businesses in the 1970's in Carson City. Eugene, Marv, and
cousins
Chris, Raymond, and their father Cliff Everingham all had stock cars that they
raced at
Crystal Raceway at some point. In those early days, the stock cars
were very basic. At that
time, so little was needed to set up a race car,
that Marv even had two cars racing at one time.
Later in the 1980's and
beyond, much
more capital, and racing knowledge was
Cliff Everingham
with one of his family's
stock cars, 1971. |
needed to set up a winning car.
Eugene
invested in sophisticated engines and a
nascar-style chassis, and
continued to race
his whole life. Other cousins from the
Morgan and
Johnston family also raced
stock cars.
Marv was the general
manager of
Jensen Chevrolet until divorcing and mov-
ing away to Onaway
where he married his
second wife Tarry Stearns. They lived in Onaway and the
surrounding areas for several years
before moving back south to Montcalm
County, to be closer to both of their families.

The Stearns Family
of Montcalm County
Donald A.
Stearns married
Phyllis I. Morris January 27th,
1945 in Stanton,
Montcalm
County, MI. Both families had a
long term presence in Montcalm
County. Don's family was from
Sheridan and the Morris family
was
from Fenwick just a couple
of miles south of Sheridan.
He owned and
operated
Stearns Trucking, retiring in
1980. Don and Phyllis chose to
adopt Richard Alfred Stearns
(b.1944), and then had Tarry (b.1948), "who
married Marv Everingham", Roy Donald (b.1950),
and Shirley Ann (b.1953).
Don was born November 24, 1926 in Sheridan, the son of Frank Wilbur
Stearns and
Emma Greenhoe. Like the Stearns and Morris family, the Greenhoe
family had been present in
Montcalm County for many years. Frank and Emma's
children were: Don, Lloyd, Wilbur,
Barry, Arnold and Ruby. Ruby married
Wilmer C. Morris Jr., who's sister Phyllis, married
Ruby's brother Don.
Lemon, Dell & Ostrander Family
Connections to the
Everinghams
The Dell family were from New Jersey and New York. They
lived in some of the same
areas that the early American Everingham families
lived. Most of the earliest Dell family infor-
mation lists their name as
"Dill". Ann J. Everingham's 1790 Census data of New York, shows
no
occurrence of the name Dell, but listed seven "Dills" living there. This same
census list
shows a John Everman and a Gilbert Everghim. We also know of
several Everinghams and
Dell/Dill, living in New Jersey prior to the 1800's.
Much like our earliest Everingham, the
Dells that we are related to were
also British Loyalists.
Our direct line came from New Jersey to Canada
and moved back to the New York side
of Niagara. They most likely moved from
side to side, across an open border between the
United States and Canada in
the early 1800's. It was not until the 1880's when our Evering-
ham line
moved to Michigan. I have not researched exactly when some of the families that
we
are related to may have moved to Michigan.
It's interesting to
see that some of the Dell and Ostrander family that had been related
to the
Everingham family back in 19th century Canada, ended up in rural Montcalm
County,
where some of the Everinghams ended up. I do not believe that either
group knew of each-Page 140
other or even knew that they were distantly related. Basnett Dell
and wife Chloe Jane
Ostrander ended up in the Langston area of Montcalm
County. Charlie & Clara Everingham
(5th generation) and many of their
descendants ended up in Carson City, Crystal, Butternut &
Sheridan areas
of Montcalm County, within a short drive of Langston. Basnett Dell died June
2, 1892, presumably at the Hospital in Lakeview, Montcalm County. His
parents were Martin
and Rebecca (Lemon) Dell. His grandfather was another
Bassnett Dell, who's sister Chloe
married James Everingham (our generation
1).
If you have paid attention so far, you have read about the Lemon
& Dell spouses of the
early Everinghams. The names of Ostrander, Lemon,
Dell and Everingham as husband and
wife appear several times. Martin Dell's
wife, Rebecca, was the daughter of Jacob Lemon and
Mary Marr. Jacob &
Mary's oldest daughter, Catherine was the second wife of our first
genera-
tion, James Everingham.
Martin Dell's sister Margaret
"Peggy", married Jacob Everingham who was the son of
James (our generation
1) and his second wife Catherine Lemon. Two more of Martin Dell's
brothers
married Everingham girls; Adoram Dell, born about 1796, married Charity
Evering-
ham, sister of Jacob, and the other child of James & Catherine
(Lemon) Everingham. The other
brother of Martin Dell who married an
Everingham, was James Dell, known as "Hunter Jim".
James married Elizabeth
"Betsy" Everingham around 1829. Betsy was a third generation Ever-
ingham.
She was the daughter of James & Sally (Brooks) Everingham (our generation
2). In
1803, William Everingham married Elizabeth Ostrander. William was a
brother of our 2nd
generation James Everingham.
As outlined in
our Generation 1, the Everinghams of Michigan are descendants of Chloe
Dell,
who died by 1793 in Ontario, Canada. She was the daughter of Bassnett &
Hannah
(Burris) Dell of New Jersey who also both died in Canada.
Basnett & Chloe (Ostrander) Dell's daughter Phoebe Catherine,
married John Watson
Everingham, who was a great grandson of James &
Chloe (Dell) Everingham. John Watson's
brother Clark Everingham, married
Mary Jane Ostrander, daughter of John & Keziah Ostrander.
Thoughts from the Author
The stories of our ancestors
are moments in time that need to be told so they are not forever
lost. It is
unimaginable how much family history and historical knowledge is lost as the
years,
and our ancestors pass on. It is by telling those stories that our
ancestors' lives are preserved
and honored. Those stories will be absolute
treasures for future historians and family genealo-
gists who can use them to
gather additional information. Some stories are simply not told,
while
others are hidden for various reasons.
Family stories are silenced for
several reasons. In some cases, someone breaks the rules
or the moral fabric
of society. Sometimes family shame is involved and events are sealed up to
protect those involved. Sometimes the family underestimates the value of
their family stories
and feel they are not interesting enough to repeat.

stories that were covered up by

ered because of records found, but
I'm sure many stories are forever
lost.
At the time that a family
event is covered up because of
shame, it may be the most respect-
ful thing to do. It is often important
to make sure that the story is not
lost, or can be uncovered in records
years later. Attitudes, morality and
social graces change drastically in
25 to 75 years or more.
In Ira Everinghams family,
his youngest daughter Alice had a
child before she was married. This
event was covered up extremely well, and none of Alice's
nieces or nephews
even knew that she ever had any children. It was 1903 when Alice, who was
about 15 years old, and her boyfriend Art, had a baby. They later married,
but at that time,
they were still unmarried teen age kids. At this point in
history the shame would have been tre-
mendous for the family. The baby was
immediately sent away and raised by Ira's cousin Jesse
Everingham & his
wife Barbara, who lived around Cheboygan or Onaway, Michigan. This
could not
have been an easy decision but was probably done because Ira and Louisa felt it
was
the best thing to do for their family and for the reputation and future
of Alice and the child.
This avoided the shame they may have endured in
their home town when Ira's youngest girl
had a child out of wedlock. This
type of story is very important because we later find that the
whole family
moved to Onaway in 1906. Maybe they wanted to see this child? Maybe this was
only part of the reason. Another piece of the picture was later found.
A similar story arises from Ira's son Charlie and his wife Clara. We
know that Charlie
and Clara married in December of 1905. Strangely enough,
unlike the rest of Charlie's siblings,
there are no wedding photos of
Charlie and Clara. This fact is a small clue that adds to the rest
of the
story. From all family Bibles, it is noted that their first child "Viola" was
born in 1907.
This date is proved wrong by State birth and death records.
This was first discovered when Vi-
ola Everingham was discovered in a State
birth index of 1906. This would mean that she was
born only 2 months after
Charlie and Clara were married. I found this strange, so I searched
County
records in Rogers City, Presque Isle County, MI. I couldn't find any death
records for
Viola, but finally found a strange record. A death record for a
Viola Everinger. Her parents
were listed as Charlie and Clara Everinger, and
she had died of pneumonia at age 8 months.
This record told quite a story. I
believe that to cover up the fact that Viola was born only 2
months after
they married, Charlie and Clara or a concerned family member recorded her name
and their name incorrectly. Although it is also very possible that they just
spelled the name
completely wrong since Charlie pronounced his name
"er-ving-ham". Then they noted in
family records that she was born and died
a year later than she really did. Viola was born in
February of 1906 and we
know that much of the Everingham family moved north to Onaway,
Presque Isle
County, Michigan that same year. Page 142
The story becomes more clear when the records are all known.
Much of the Evering-
ham family moved north when Charlie & Clara suddenly
married and had a baby. I think it's
pretty clear that they moved to avoid
the embarrassment of the pregnancy prior to marriage.
They needed a place to
go, where they could start over and people would not know them. The
stigma
of what they felt was a scarlet letter on their morality and would be gone if
they moved
and started over. I believe that since Ira and Louisa Everingham
had a grandson living with his
cousin in Onaway, that they decided to try
life there. Onaway also had a booming lumber in-
dustry at the time, so jobs
were easy to find there. Much of the family moved to Onaway in
1906. Others
followed by 1907.
My analogy of the family's move to Onaway is not
done to embarrass or put shame on
any part of my family. I am a very
conservative person, but I have a great deal of respect for
Charlie and
Clara after talking to people who knew them. One thing that I hear over, and
over
was how nice and caring they were. Everyone who knew Clara echoes the
same statement;
"She was the sweetest lady I knew". Sometimes the hardships
and vicissitudes of life are the
very things that make people stronger, more
caring and ultimately better people. Not only
were they decent, well-liked
people, but they sacrificed and took great chances to avoid a nega-
tive
image. The world would be a better place if more people took steps to assure
their positive
standing in the community. As the decades roll on, it appears
that shame, morality and public
sentiment mean less and less to our society.
At times, life goes by in bits and pieces of memorable experiences.
Those experiences
both good and bad, can be positive building blocks to a
person's character. At times the events
of life generate small memories that
live on in our minds for as long as a spark of life remains.
It is often
said that time passes more quickly as you grow older. Perhaps time seems to pass
more quickly because people finally realize that their time is growing
shorter with every pass-
ing year. Maybe people become increasingly aware of
old memories and wish they had done
more to enjoy the time that they had.
It's probable that the amount of enjoyment obtained from
life is
proportionate to the time spent with family and doing things that you love. As
unfortu-
nate as it may sound, if life were filled with only good, people
would learn much less. We are
here to enjoy the good things that life can
bring and to learn from the mistakes and loss experi-
enced. It is certain
that in youth, people do not appreciate their family ties. People generally do
not consider where they came from and who their ancestors were, until their
later years in life.
It's not only interesting but often enlightening to
discover old family stories and your family
roots.
And so I
would like to appeal to everyone who reads this to set down with your relatives
and record as much as you can, and write down who's who in those photos you
have!
We all have memories of those adults in our lives that we looked
at with admiration and
awe. For starters, our young minds were fairly empty,
no matter how much we thought other-
wise. As a young boy I thought my elders
knew so much, that I could never learn it all in my
lifetime. Surely they
could easily forget more than I could ever learn. Fears of failure are not
uncommon for most children, when your parents could wire a ceiling fan, fix
the plumbing, and
tune up the family car, all in the same afternoon. For
centuries, people just wanted to know
how things worked. They tinkered with
things they didn't fully understand, and studied every-Page 143
thing they needed to know. People really needed to know a wide
range of vocational, and sur-
vival skills simply to live. It was a matter of
needing to know how things work and not having
the money to pay for
everything you needed. Today's world may be a little more crowded, and
probably much more complicated. To specialize is the ideal of education. Our
society today
produces people who certainly know more details about their
line of chosen work, but they
would surely parish if placed alone in the
Eighteenth century. How long would a computer pro-
grammer last, if he or she
were placed in the middle of the western plains of North America
when only
native peoples roamed the land? In the event of major catastrophe, how many
peo-
ple living today would be able to fend for themselves? It's a shame
really, how little survival
skills remain. Sure a few people are left here
and there who possess those skills, but it seems
that the men and women who
are dying of old age as we enter into the twenty-first century,
were really
the last of the masters of general knowledge.
As an example, I will tell
you about a friend of mine for a brief period of time. Although he
was an
Everingham, we never did find any connection to our families except that I
believe that
it's very possible that his oldest ancestor "Jonathan" was a
brother of our generation 1, James.
Albert Kirtland Everingham was born
October 2, 1921 in Onondaga County, New York.
|
photo of WWII Mustang Fighter Pilot Albert Everingham of Onondaga, NY.
|
He was the fourth and last
child of Lydia and Robert
Everingham Al
grew up
under the thumb of a strict
disciplinarian father.
Robert's fiery
red hair
matched his temper, and
his deep, dark eyes
added
to his intimidation. His
son Al
worked hard and
grew up on the family's
160 acre dairy farm in
Onondaga, New York.
Would I say Al
was a hero, or giant among men? You bet I would,
and so would anyone who knew him well.
Al was a World War II fighter pilot,
but his personality seemed to be the real impression that
will live on with
everyone who knew him. I was amazed at how much I liked this guy the first
time he called me on the phone, so I started writing things down. Al was
very ill when we met
and many of our phone calls took place while he was
sick in bed. Al passed away in March of
2000. I wish more would have been
written down about this guy. His life would have made an
interesting book.
Perhaps in time, I will be able to gather enough about him to write more.
The point to all of this is,... that it is really not hard to gather
information about our an-
cestors. I can not stress how important it is to
simply talk to relatives or even write down a little
information about your
own life and memories for your descendants. The centuries old practice
of
writing letters to your family is now a rare occasion. You can write down
historical informa-
tion, or just memories of other relatives. Everything you
can write down has a chance of being
saved for future generations as opposed
to being lost forever. Can you imagine the stories that
were lost about the
American Revolution when our generation 1, James Everingham lived? Page 144
It is inevitable that memories fade with time. One of
saddest parts of death is the loss
of hundreds of family stories and
countless personal memories that family will never know.
Every ancestor that
lived before us, has held unique personal memories that are forever lost
when they pass on. Those stories lost, could fill volumes of books about
family, friends, life
experiences, and times in history that are otherwise
hard to imagine. Unless you've spent a
lifetime studying history in-depth,
you probably can not begin to imagine what life would
have been like before
recorded history or during the Viking era, the conquest of England,
the
Roman empire, or even the founding of the American colonies. The fact is, we
have all
had ancestors who lived during those times. Can you imagine what
grand stories we would
all have if even a few of those ancestors had written
some of the information down?
In 100 years or more, your life will
have significant interest to your descendants.
