2568 Per the delayed record of birth issued by the State of Illinois, August 21, 1953, Lillian Lusina Heitmeyer was born on August 1, 1895, in Bible Grove, Clay County, Illinois. Her father was given as Christopher Heitmeyer born in Leipzig, Germany. We now know that this is wrong and that he was born in Reineberg, Westphalen, Germany and that his baptismal name was Heinrich Gottlieb Heitmeyer but per the family he went by Christopher all his life.

Her mother was Martha Colburn, born in Bible Grove, Illinois.

This is a delayed birth certificate as I believe the records were destroyed in Louisville, Illinois. the birth certificate gives 4 affidavits: 1) P. L. Heitmeyer, brother, of 110 N.E. 39th Avenue, Portland, Oregon. 2) New York Life Insurance Co. Policy #6 638 095, January 14, 1920. 3) Seattle First National Bank Safe Deposit Box, Branch Bremerton, Washington 3/3/39. and 4) Cousin Cassell D. Hibbs 3534 Millett Avenue, Ft. Worth 5, Texas.

The address of Lillian is given as Star Route, Box 54, Bremerton, Washington.

2570 Perhaps the name has caught your attention, and you wonder where it came from. Sorry, I can be of no help. The 1880 census runs the two names together and appears to be Dilefate. Marriage and probate records list him as D.F. But Dilly Fate is the spelling his daughters used. Maybe the name Dilly stems from the fact he was the last of 14 children and Fate because his Mother was 46 at the time of his birth. But this is another of those questions to have ready when the last trumpet sounds.
Dilly was born 24 May, 1872, in Stone Co., MO, to Wm. K. Owens and Sarah Ann McCray. We can assume he had the normal life of any young boy of that time, working on the farm, hunting and going to school. I don't know what education Dilly had but he could read and write. When his father died in January 1882, I am sure after that his life changed with more responsibilities thrust upon him. When his mother Sarah, became ill, Dilly looked for someone to live at the home and help care for Sarah. He found a young woman of the community, Mary Elizabeth Davis (b. 15 Aug., 1865, Miller Co., MO, daughter of John Thompson Davis and Nancy Jane Davis). How long the employer-employee relationship lasted I am not sure, but August 2, 1888, Mary and Dilly were married in Stone County.
To this marriage three children were born in Stone Co., MO, as follows: Sarah Naverett Bell Owens, b. 1/27/1890, d. 1/9/1971, in Pryor, OK. She was married 2/28/1909, in Stone Co., MO to John Henry Victory; Dosha Elizabeth Owens, b. 12/4/1891, d. 11/23/1979, in Tulsa, OK. She was married 10/27/1910 in Stone Co., MO, to John Franklin Graves; Charles Weaver Owens, b. 10/20/1893, d. 9/30/1961, in Fayetteville, Arkansas, was first married October 10 1927, Stone Co., MO, to Rosa Francis Strimple. His second marriage, in 1938, was to Julia Grace Shannon King.
From accounts of Dosha Owens Graves, they were a happy family with lots of aunts, uncles, and cousins to visit. The Owens School house was a center of activity--school, picnics, and preaching services.
Fortunately for many of us the traveling photographer made his way through Stone County in July 1905 and preserved on film one of the last happy days of this small family (see photograph). Only one week after the picture was taken, Mary fell victim to a common disease of that time, dysentery, and died within a week. The heading for the photo is: The Owens family: Charley, Dilly, "Nett", and Dosha, July 1905.
Dilly remained a widower till 6 Nov., 1907, when he married in Stone County, Lucy Melissia Francis Taylor, b. 24 Feb., 1883, Stone County, daughter of Geroge W. Taylor and Lonia Jordon.
Born to Dilly and Lucy, in Stone Co., MO, were five children as follows: Lee Marshal Owens, b. 5/4/1909, d. 6/4/1968, at Reeds Spring, MO. His first marriage was to Allie Mae Blankenship on 7/17/1931, at Galena, MO; his second marriage was in 1938 to Opal Gardner, and his third marriage was in April, 1953 to Edna Teague. George Farris Owens was b. 3/22/1911, and d. 10/26/1984, Springfield, MO. He was married 6/3/1934 in Barry County, MO, to Alta Mae Lewis. Trude Margaret Owens was b. 8/1/1913, (living in 1988), married Albert Franklin Tilden 3/27/1940 in Stone Co., MO. Florence Owens was b. 11/1/1915, and d. 6/6/1987 in Caldwell, Idaho. She was married 8/19/1936 at Cassville, MO, to Kirby Maxwell.
Gladys Leona Owens b. Feb. 8, 1917, d. Jan. 17, 1957, St. Joseph, MO, m. Oct. 3, 1937, Monett, MO, Harold Presley Colboch.
Lucy died Nov. 2, 1918, from complications of child birth. She was buried in the Owens Cemetery, one space from Mary David Owens (Dilly was later buried between them). Again Dilly was a widower with five children under the age of nine. Soon Dilly married Alice E. Fly, but the relationship was not long lasting; they were separated at the time of Dilly's death Oct. 2, 1920.
Dilly became very ill with stomach pains, and was aware of his impending death and made arrangements for the five children. He didn't feel that either Nett or Dosha could handle any of the chilren; Net had 5 and Dosha 3 at the time. I don't know who all the childdren were raised by, but on a whole they were well taken care of.
Dilly was a progressive type of person--he inherited his parents' land and purchased other land. He operated a store and post office at Norwalk. He understood that the way of life was changing in Stone Co. from hunting and farming. Just before his death he had purchased a herd of Jersey cows to start a dairy. After his death the herd had to be auctioned off to settle the bank debt. The land was free of debt, and the court ruled Alice Fly Owens could have use of the land until her death, then the land went to the eight children. When the Table Rock Dam was built, part of the land was covered by water and the remainder sold.
I remember the Christmas my grandparents bought me and four cousins new shoes from Sears. For each of the three children they bought a set of "good dishes." One was the Blue Willow pattern, one Roses, and my parents' was Gardenias. I have my Mother's Gardenia set, and one of my sons has already asked to inherit them. So in a way the Owens "land" is still in the family.
There are many of Dilly's descendants in the U.S., mainly settling in MO, OK, Idaho, and CA.

2580 Polk was a native of Fordyce, Ark., and became a highly sucdcessful business man. At 16, he left home to attend the U. of Ark., where he spent 2 years, working to pay his way. He then went to St. Louis in 1894, where he worked for Ely, Walker & Co., wholesalers, while there also attending Browns Business Colelge. After graduation, Ely Walker recommended him to T. F.

It was here that he met and married Ida.
After their marriage, they moved to Vandalia, Illinois, where Polk headed the firm of Atkinson & Brink. Mr. Brink was the silent partner, with Polk in full charge. In a few years he was sole owner of a thriving business. In 1914, he opened a second store in St. Elmo, Illinois, which continued till his death. At the time fo his death, a Mr. Mansfield had one-third interest in the Vandalia Store, which had a grocery dept. as well as dry goods, clothing and shoes.

Death claimed another of the pioneer residents of Sumner Tuesday morning of last week when "Uncle Isaac" Herrin passed away. He had lived in Sumner for more than thirty years, and had always been an honest and upright citizen. He was a man of decided opinions and and true to his religious as well as political principles and was devoted to his home and family by whom he will be greatly missed. The sympathy of a large circle of friends is with them in this great sorrow.
The funeral services were conducted at the residence by his pastor, Rev. O. F. Culver, assisted by the members of the choir of the M. E. Church.
The following obituary was read at the services:
Isaac Herrin was born June 8th, 1831 died March 29, 1910, aged seventy-eight years, nine months and twenty-three days. He was twice married, first on November 9, 1852 to Emma Jane Matthews. From this union were born six children, one dying in infancy. His wife died November 6, 1862. On July 23, 1863 he was married to Mary E. Brown. To this union were born seven children, two of whom have preceded him to the better world.
At the age of thirty years in 1861 he was converted and united with the Methodist Episcopal church and lived in that church for forty-nine years. For about twenty-five years he was sexion of the church in Sumner and remained faithful as a keeper of the house of God as long as the responsibility rested upon him.
He has been a sufferer for several years and in his last illness suffered but cheerful when spoken to about his hope for eternity and expressed himself as ready to depart and be with Christ when it was God's will to release him from this life. Peacefully, at 5 a.m. March 29, he fell asleep in Jesus and is here no more, for God took him.

CARD OF THANKS (from newspaper clipping)

We wish to thank all our neighbors and friends and especially Brother Culver and the members of the M. E. church for their many acts of kindness and words of consolation to us during the sickness and burial of our dear husband and father.

2589 Presumably in the early 1850's, Adam Boyle (1793), son of John and Jennie (Templeton) Boyle, and his wife Margaret (1795), daughter of William and Nancy Wallace, came to America from northern Ireland with their six sons, James, John, Thomas, Thompson, Adam, and William. They settled in Randolph County, and the parents were dead by late 1855 and are buried in the Hill Prairie Cemetery. James, Jon, Thomas, and Adam Boyle moved to Washington County, south of Oakdale by about 1861.

Thomas born in 1831 in Ireland, returned to marry in 1856, Margaret Boyd (1833), dughter of William and Elizabeth (Chestnut) Boyd. Their wedding trip was to Illinois, Randolph County, where they lived until 1861.

Rae James and Ruby were born twins (1890), but Ruby died that same summer. Rae married, in 1916, Florence Blanch Boner (1890), daughter of John Smith and Lucy Williams Boner. Rae spent his working years farming the property which had once been his grandfather's. Their children were Nelda and Pearl. Nelda married Warren Robb and lives in Perry County. She was for 30 years an elementary school teacher. Pearl married Charles Auld, and they live near Pearl's birthplace, farming the acreage which once belonged to her great-grandfather. Here in Oakdale Township they reared their family.

William Pressley Boyle (1892) married Lola Chenowith. To this union were born Robert, John, Bruce, and Phillip Boyle. Willard Boyle was an educator, and at the time of his death, was Superintendent of Schools in Tomahawk, Wisconsin.

Clifford Leslie Boyle married Mildred Fenon. Most of his adult life he lived in the Chicago and northern Indiana area. His hobby was gardening, and he produced several new strains of dahlias, naming one for his mother. Their two children were William, deceased, and Edna Lea.

We do have records and information that make us feel certain she was his daughter. The sources of information are Mrs. Grant L.
