An undated letter written to the Missouri Republican by Mrs. Catherine J. (Lowe) Marr, and published at the time of the death Anna M. (Lowe) Perry. The letter is a reminiscence of Anna's life, including adventures on the Canadian border during the War of 1812 and a family tie to patriot Ethan Allen. Some links relating to items in the letter appear below. (This is a plain text file. I have tried to transcribe this exactly, down to the spelling errors and punctuation. The poor condition of parts of the document and the sometimes shaky handwriting caused me to guess at a couple of phrases. I've marked these with a question mark. The marginal notes of the original transcriber, presumably my great aunt Kathryn "Kittie" Lowe (Needham) Shepherd, I have included as footnotes.) These web sites provide some background and confirmation of the events related in Mrs. Perry's story:

Five pages of genealogical musings concerning the Fish family of Rhode Island were found bound into Cornell University's copy of Austin's Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island. The undated article is credited to one Dr. F. E. Weeks of Kipton, Lorain County, Ohio. At the beginning of the article is the comment "See New York Gen. and Biog. Record, Vol. 53."; this volume of the NYG&B Record was published in 1922. The article has a reference to 1940 in it, so the citation is apparently for general information. So far as I know, there is no relationship between the Needham and Fish families. This article is posted here simply as a service to those who might find it useful. The article is available as either plain text or as an Adobe Acrobat image of the original typescript. |
