Scofield. Family moved to California in 1926. Grew up in Berkeley, OaklandandSacramento. Military Service: U. S. Army 1942-46. Family moved to SantaBarbara in 1943.

Following Army discharge in 1946, married Shirley frace Halverson, inJacksonville, Illinois, and started college at UCSB (Riviera Campus). Graduatedin 1949 with B. A. (Physics Major).

Navy Laboratories inSan Francisco, California, and Silver Spring, Maryland; as a Research Physicist.Retired, June 1980, returning with son John to Santa Barbara.

Shirley, following the initial move to Santa Barbara, resumed her interrupted nurses training,which she had started at MacMurray College in Jacksonville.She earned a B. S. in nursing, received her R. N. from the State of Californiaand worked at several hospitals, supplementing the slim married-student's stipendunder the "GI" Bill. After the move to San Francisco, she gave birth to threesons.

Paul, born 1953, is an artist and sign painterliving inSan Francisco and John is a student at Santa Barbara Oonmmity College,living at home. Shirley passed away in 1976.

Inherited genealogical data from his paternal grandfather, Edward Herbert'Scofield, who was an Electrical Power Engineer for the Minneapolis Street Railway Company. Started to work on Scofield genealogy in 1975. Ancestor chartgiven in ANCESTORS WEST, Vol. 7, No. 1 (March, 1981). The Scofield line goesback from Minnesota in the early 1900's through Wisconsin (1848-1860).upstateNewYork (1780-1848), Stamford, Connecticut (1641-1780) to the Immigrant Ancestor (perhaps) from Rochdale, Lancashire, England, to Ipswich, Massachusetts in1639.

Just after retiring in 1980 made a trip to England with two younger sons,John and Paul. Visited Schofield Hall ruins near Rochdale. Still seekingproof of the family connection with these English Schofields.

With brother, Tony, and son, John, formed a small business corporationwhich is currently doing consulting on computer programs with the Navy. Interested iu applications of personal computers to help store and access genealogical data.EMILY PERRY THIES, Vice President (President 1981)

The older of two children born to Arthur Z. and Janette Curtiss Perry on afarm in Hillsdale County, Michigan. When she was three the family moved toHartford, where the parents operated a grocery store until her father's failinghealth prompted a move to East Lansing so she could enter Michigan AgriculturalCollege (now MSU). Five days after graduation from the School of Home Economicsas a major in Nutrition she married Wilbur H. Thies of Traverse City, whom shehad met while a freshman as her instructor in Physics. The year before marriageBill had taken a position as Extension Horticulturist at Massachusetts Agricultural College in Amherst. Within five years they were theparents of threesons, all ofwhom are married and have presented Emily and Bill Thies withseven granddaughters, two grandsons and one great-granddaughter.

Heme, family and community activities- occupied Emily until WW II when shewas asked to help out inthe recently opened Laboratory Nursery School at Massachusetts State College (now University of Massachusetts). The professorteaching Child Development, using the lab, had been an acquaintance in collegeand knew that Emily had spent a term as anundergraduate at Merrill Palmer Institute in Detroit. After a brief time "on the job" Emily knew she would like tocontinue but felt the need for more training. To that end she attended summersessions at Cornell University for five years to earn her M. A. in Child Development and Family Relationships. She remained at theUniversity for fifteen yearsas Director of the Nursery School and teacher of Child Development to Universityjunior and senior students.

She retired to join Bill overseas when hewas serving as Consultant in Horticulture far the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Heserved in Yugoslavia and Syria, a total of more than five years. The overseasassignments initiated the Thies family into travel, which they continued to enjoy andwhich has included a nine-month trip around theworld during which theyvisited twenty-four countries.

Three of these trips involved genealogical research in England. For saneyears Emily was a member of the Society of Genealogists in London and engagedin research in its collections.

In 1972 they sold the home in Amherst, Massachusetts, which they had builtthirty-five years earlier and came to Santa Barbara to be near the oldest sonand his family. About a week later before they found a place to live, Emilyattended the first meeting of the group that became SBCGS. She is an activemember of the First Congregational Church, serves as a volunteer at the SantaBarbara Botanic Garden Guild Shop, assists in theUN local office, and is a member of O.K.Cbapter of PE0. We all know howmuch of herself and research materials she has given to Santa Barbara County Genealogical Society.

PROFILES

ELIZABETH ANN EARLY, Secretary.Has not responded to several requests for submission of her profile.Lives with her parents. Was formerly employed by one of the title insur

ance company offices. Presently is intent on developing a record searching service - Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties, plus the State of California, including early Spanish-Mexican California.

MURIEL RIEMER GRAHAM, Treasurer. Assisted in typing copy for this issue.Born and brought up in the Midwest- Beloit, Wisconsin - only daughter of

Elmer H. Riemer and Laura M. Schuenke. Married a sailor in the U. S. Navy,spent the next 16 years living in Washington, D. C., Virginia, Maryland, Texasthen returningto Madison, Wisconsin where she brought up four children.

Became interested in researching family when she came across scrapbooks ofobituaries and old newspaper clippings her mother had been collecting for years.This sparked an interest in discovering her "Roots" that will not let up. InMadison, WI, she was able to take advantage of the extensive records at theState Historical Society Library. There she discovered the census records ofher great grandfather Riemer for the years 1860, 1870 and 1880. Believingthat all of my grandparents came over from Germany as young children, she wassurprised to find that grandfather Riemerwas born in this country in 1863,hisfather having come over with his wife and four older children to become an earlysettler of Wisconsin and Nebraska. A copyof his citizenship document shows herenounced allegiance to the Emperor of Prussia, to bringhis family to thiscountry for a better life. The situation is rather like her own, electing toleave a good position and a familiar life in Wisconsin over three years ago, tostart again in Southern California. She has been to the Mormon Library inSalt Lake City researching her family, spent hours in other libraries, hours incemeteries, hours in County Offices digging up information, written many lettersto find clues that would give another ideawhere to find more information(sometimes she thinks it is just a hobby). She intends to leave a history forher children and grandchildren, something they canread, enjoy, and realize whatit took to put them on this earth.

HARRY TITUS, Director. President 1979 and 1982.Born in Florida, son of Clifford L. and Jessie Barnett Titus. Soldier,

sailor, genealogist, the latter the most fulfilling. That he attributes to thewealth of information available relating to both the Titus and Barnett lines.He does bemoan the dearth of it on so many others. Possibly that is why hissearches have been so exciting - learning of one's "roots" is a form of detectivework. A trip to Florida a few years ago is a highlight he will always remember - in fact, he plans another within the next few months. While in Florida he walked the graveyards, met with cousins unkown only a few months before.In addition, he spent some time in two very important places - Micanopy and Ti-tusville. The first was his birthplace (as it was his mother's and her father's)and the second was not only the birthplace of his father and of his father'sfather, but it was founded by bis great-grandfather. At Titusville, he was metby a host of dignataries and presented with the key to the city. "A memorableexperience," he says.

Titus says that despite his accomplishments to date, he has a long ways togo, a journey he wishes he could complete so that his four children (twoboys,two girls) will have a history of their lines to pass on to their children aswell. He startedwith material garnered by a paternal aunt and on her demisefelt duty-bound to continue what she had started, comnencing with a Spanish ancestor. He learned of a cousin who had the same ancestor, but was also relatedto the Barnetts, his mother's line. Realizing he neededhelp in adding foliageto his genealogical tree, he joinedSBCGS and dug into books and pamphlets Inthe Society's library. Fortunately the Titus name is well-recorded from England to the present day, with many localities in this country bearing the name.He found there was no comprehensive, all-encompassing book or pamphlet - onlya few publications limited to a single line. He resolved to solve the problem by puttingout a quarterly listing every Titus he could find, and, in addition, establish a new method of recording genealogical data. Thus came intobeing "THE TITUS TRAIL" and his dedication to donating genealogical holdings tothe Society and urging others to do likewise - if not a total library, at leasta book, a pamphlet, a subscription to a quarterly not now received by SBCGS andcopies of pedigree and family group sheets. Those last two are the bar minimumand can contribute so much. His advice: "Don't give up! It's out there andjust possibly through our society it will be found."

He and his wife, Justine, have spent hours copying marriage records listsat the County Recorder's office. He has contributed inspiring articles toANCESTORS WEST and actively supports the objects and purposes of the Society.

National Atlas of the United States of America, U. S. Dept. of the InteriorGeological Survey, 1970, Washington, D. C., shows Titusville, Florida with

a population of 22,000 and Titusville, Pennsylvania with 8,356 and Titus County,Texas, county seat Mt. Pleasant, 17,400.

LILIAN MANN FISH, Director and Editor, ANCESTORS WEST.Born Methuen, Massachusetts, a town separated in 1726 from Haverhill,

Essex County and fromwhichthe industrial cityof Lawrence was carved, inmany respects resembles Montecito, Santa Barbara County, California. TheNevins family donated the library building, an organ hall where free concerts are given was built to house a Symphony Organ being replaced by anewer one in Boston, a castle with gatehouse and walled grounds erected bytheTenney family, an English half-timbered type school building donatedby Edward Searles, who hadmarried the widow of Mark Hopkins of San Francisco, and after her death returned with his fortune to Methuen, building onthe outskirts a castle, nowoccupied by a secondary school operated by aCatholic sisterhood, andmany sandstone walls along the country lanes withinhisholdings. She was raised in the adjoining town of Pelham, HillsboroughCounty (formerly in Rockingham County), New Hampshire where her mother'sHobbs family bad lived for generations since the Reverend James Hobbs (Harvard, 1748) married Elizabeth Batchelder, descendant of the Reverend StephenBachilor, who came to New England with three Sanborn andBatchelor grandsonsat the ageof 73, remained over 20 years, andthen returned to England anddied near London in his 100th year in 1660. Her parents did not agree asto the person for whomshewas named but did agree on the spelling-LILIAN.She came to Santa Barbara in 1949 and until 1971 was an associate attorneyin the oldest law firmin the city and had the privilege of working with Mr.Francis Price, Sr. in many interesting matters, including the contract forreconstruction of the Old Mission quadrangle, a license for use of Missionrooms by the Santa Barbara Historical Society(which went to the Curia inRome for approval), contracts for the production of Padres Choristers records, of Christmas carols andwith Bing Crosby andRCA in New York, the MaxFleischmann estate which donated funds for the Mission and many other civicenterprises, the William Zimdin estate with widespread interests in California and abroad. The William Zimdin Foundation was the predecessor ofDirect Relief Foundation which has given and is still giving services andmedical supplies in themillions for relief of stricken areas-in Africa andLatin America recently. Worked with the Attorney General's office in San Francisco on the appeal of the Ivanhoe cases from San Joaquin Valley involvingthe 160-acre limitation on use of water from federal reclamation projects, aBiltmore Hotel zoning appeal, the SanYsidro Ranch case to cite a few.Lilian received her law degree (J. D. magna cum laude) fromSouthwesternUniversity in Los Angeles, attending night sessions while working in theoffice of the City Prosecutor and in a local law office, specializing inadmiralty and farm and corporate reorganization bankruptcy matters. In1970she had the privilege of being a member of a D.A.R. sponsored trip toEngland, Scotland andWales. Some research was done at the Society of Genealogists in London, where she still maintains membership. In 1982 a secondtrip was made to attend the O'Neill Gathering inBelfast, Northern Ireland,then by ferry to southern Scotland proceeding by rail to Edinburgh (ratherthan northerly to Inverness because of the imminence of the Brit Railstrike), reaching Aberdeen by train, going on by bus (coach) to Elgin thenext afternoon, visiting Pluscarden Abbey, Gordonstoun, Lossiemouth, runningdown Masonic lodges in Elgin, telephoning a Family History officer in Inverness (to be told "We areHighlanders"- Elgin is In the Lowlands, go backtoAberdeen and contact librarians there), Recently the treasurer of Kilnply-mock Lodge in Elgin telephoned to say he hadbeen reading the minutes from1704 with great interest and would send items found relating to John Man,Clerk, who had signed identification papers for hisson William Mann - theancestor captured while in the employ of the East India Company and broughtto Salem, Massachusetts when rescued by a ship off the African coast about1804. Also visited in Sutton-on Trent, Nottinghamshire,with John-and Gwyn-fa Bradbury, and stayed about a week nearSaffron Walden and Wicken Bonhunt,The Wymond-Thomas Bradbury Brick House location, visited Woodford whereMartha Weald Okendon wife of our WilliamMann lived, and then by bus to London andGatwick Airport (the Brit Rail strike having been resumed>. So fara rough draft of the early introductory chapters relating to early Scottishhistory have been produced and sent for comment to Mellnda Hatfield, inEugene, Oregon, who induced Lilian to collaborate on a Mann Family History.Melinde is editor of the BULLETIN of the Oregon State Genealogical Society,and compiler of "The Hayes Family of Virginia".

A green thumb may be attributed to diluted genes from Burpee and Bur-bank antecedents and her father's ability to propagate strawberries, blueberries, asparagus, and many vegetables and fruits not ordinarily found inNew Hampshire gardens. A 13-page Ancestors Chart appears in ANCESTORS WESTVol.4, No.2,June 1978, with corrections and additions in a later issue. Vol.8, No. 2, June,1982, pp. 60-61.

In 1960, Alma resumed her college workat PanAmerican College, Edinburg, and also taught in the elementary school.Working full time and with the patient help of husband and children, she earnedher degree just 30 years after starting college. Daughter Janet graduated fromHigh School the same year. The other children were Martin, Glen born at Ft. Myer,Va., and Wayne and John born in Texas. In 1964, Almabegan teaching in SpecialEducation at Santa Barbara, California. In 1973, a trip around the world was achange of pace. Included was a special visit to Herning, Denmark where Carl'sancestors had lived. Alma retired from teaching in 1976 and has enjoyed the opportunity to pursue her interest in writing and in Family History. She servedfor several years as Librarian for SBCGS. In 1980 she was forced by ill-healthto limit her activities, but is now much improved and able to conduct small groupinstruction for the newer members of SBCGS.

UNITS OF LAND MEASURENorman E. Scofield

In reading old deeds describing land one frequently encounters old unitsof land measure. We start with the section. A section is a piece of land,one mile square, usually laid off with boundary lines that are North-Southand East-West. Typically, in property in the United States surveyed in the19th century, a township would consist of a square of 6 miles on a side or36 sections. The sections were numbered in a meander pattern starting atthe Northeast corner, proceeding westward, dropping down to the next rowand proceeding Eastward, then dropping to the next row and proceeding westward, etc., until all 36 sections had been numbered. See Fig 1 a.

Similarly the section was divided by successive quarterings. First quartering gives 4 squares, 1/2 mile on a side; Second quartering gives 16 squares, 1/4 mile on a side; and the third quartering gives 64 squares, 1/8mile on a side. The quarters are described by their relation to compassheadings: i. d., First 4 quarters would be NE, NW, SW and SE. One of the16quarters might be disignated as e. g. : NW 1/4 ofthe SE 1/3 of Section12."Bounty land warrants for military service were typically 1/2 mile square

or 160 acres. A square mile being 640 acres (1 acre = 4840 sq. yds.)The origin of the Acre is interesting. Originally it meant field (Latin:

ager) and was said tobe the amount of land one man could plow in a day.What would an acre look like? Well, ifwe tryto find,out the size of theside by taking the square root of 4840 we get 22 x viu . So that the acreis probably not a square figure. We can get a clue to its shape by lookingat another unit of land measure, the furlong. The dictionary says that thisis a unit of distances, equal to 220 yards. Now dividing 4840 by 220 we get22 yards. Now dividing 4840 by 220 we get 22 yards for the other side ofthe rectangle. But why such a long narrow shape? If we look at the etymology of the furlong, we find it originally was a "fuhr-lang" or "furrow-Length"in old Saxon. Now we recall that the acre itselfwas described as an areaof land that one man (plus a pair of horse or oxen, one would imagine) couldplow in a day. Now if one uses a little imagination, the optimum shape ofa field for plowing is one that minimizes the number of turns at the ends ofthe field. However, the width must be sufficient to permit plowing aroundthe turn rather than having to take the plow out of the ground, turn it a-rouhd, and get the plow back in the ground. Perhaps a pattern like thatshown inFeg. 1 b. Note the similarity to the section numbering patternshown in Fig 1 a.

Now let's lookat some other units we run into. These are rod, pole,perch, chain. Starting with Chain we find from the dictionary that thereare two types of chain. One, called the engineer's chain, has 100 links of12" each, totalling 100 feet. The other chain, called a surveyor's chain,also has 100 links, but they are 7.92" long and the total length is 66 ft.or 22 yards, exactly the width of the acre rectangle we developed using 1furlong or 220 yards for the long side.

What about the rod, pole and perch? Well, it turns out that they aredifferent names for thesame unit of linear measure equal to 5 1/2 yardsor 16 1/2 feet. Now, presumably, early surveyors did carry a rod or perhaps cut one to size in the field. It is to be noted that 4 rods = 4x51/2= 22 yards and that 40 rods = 220 yards so that our acre rectangle couldalso be described as being 4 rods wide and 40 rods long. We note in passing that 1 rod = 25 surveyor's links. Finally in Fig. 2 we show how thevarious land measuring or locating -units might be found on a map. " Starting at the SE corner of the SE 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of the SE ;/4 of Section14, T 1 S, R 2 W precedes due west 16rods to the startonig point. Fromthere 40 rods due North, then 4 rods due West, 40 rods due South, and 4rods due E to the starting point comprising 1 acre of land."

PERSONALITY

COLONEL H.T. TITUS: FAMOUS OR IMFAMOUS?

Harry Titus

The view one takes about the life of Henry Theodore Titusdepends upon which author one reads; however, there is no questionin anyone's mind that he was in a class by himself, an adventurerwhose exploits, if written for fiction, would never be believed.

He was the seventh generation of Tituses in America, descending from Theodore, John, Andrew, John, Content and Robert, havingbeen born 13 February 1822, at Trenton, New Jersey.

He married Mary E. Hopkins, daughter of Edward Stephen Hopkins,twice mayor of Jacksonville, Florida, on 21 March 1852 and, fromall accounts, she led a very adventuresome life following orwaiting for her husband in his quest for fame, fortune or—in hisjudgment—preservation of a way of life.

His daughter, Minnie Titus Ensey, said: "I suppose I may bepardoned for stating he was very handsome and commanding in appearance, with dark brown eyes and hair; standing well over six feetin height and weighing 250 pounds, very graceful and agile, hedelighted in an active life."

Titus first came into the nation's eye when he joined NarciscoLopez, a filibusterer, in an expedition to free Cuba from Spanishrule in 1850. It is reported that Titus and others landed atCardenas, Cuba, to aid Lopez who was already there; however, Spanishgunboats chased Titus and the ship he was on, the steamer Pampero,all the way back to Key West, arriving just ahead of the pursuingSpaniards. (One story has it that those on the Pampero burnedevery combustible item aboard to escape, including sides of bacon.)

Safely back in the U.S., Titus sailed -the Pampero to Fernan-dina, Florida, where he trained recruits to return with him toCuba; however, on learning of Lopez's capture and execution, hesailed to Jacksonville where Federal forces captured him and hisship. He was arrested for violating the neutrality laws of theUnited States and tried at St. Augustine, but if he received anypunishment, there is no record of it. n

Interestingly enough, "Lopez's Expedition to Cuba, 1850-1851,Anderson Quisenberry states: "It is not known what became of therolls and records of the Kentucky Regiment of the Cardenas Expedition or whether they preserved at all. The following incompleteroster of its officers and statement of losses where picked outfrom various sources and it mentions ADJUTANT HENRY TITUS (capsmine), from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with a footnote, 'nativeof Kentucky but at that time residing elsewhere.'" (This is theonly mention of Titus in this book and, as in many cases concerninggenealogical reserch, conflicting facts abound.)

After the Cuban fiasco, the next four years found Titus inJacksonville in the mercantile business, a position which apparently didn't satisfy his appetite for adventure for on 2 April1856, the Jacksonville Florida Republic announced that Titus andhis family were leaving for Kansas; however, the New York Timesand other papers wrote that he and at least one thousand Georgiansand Floridians were going to Kansas to rid that area of the "damned Abolitionists."

Those were troubled times, not only in Kansas, but elsewherein the Nation and possibly it was men such as Titus and JohnBrown, later to become better known for events at Harper's Ferry,who precipitated the Civil War.

Minnie Titus Ensey claimed that her father never owned a slavebut he espoused the Southern cause. She said: "I remember hearing my father tell of John Brown's sons, they being my father'sprisoners, and of feeling sorry for them and letting them ridemules unbound, upon their promise not to try to escape, but thefirst chance they got, they were off." (This trait—idealist orfool—would again cause Titus to lose.)

After much fighting in and around Lawrence and after sackingthe local newspaper, Herald of Freedom, Titus and a few of hismen (18) withdrew to his home near LeCompton, a house which wouldforever be remembered as "Fort Titus."

On 16 August, 1956, the "fort" was attacked by Free-Statersunder the command of Captain Samuel Walker (another Walker wouldsoon figure prominently in the life of Titus). Two other captains

13

were present during this attack: Joel Grover and Samuel Shombre.(The latter was killed during this engagement.)

Some tried to place John Brown there but the preponderance ofevidence refutes it; even Brown himself never actually admittedit, although he implied it.

The battle at "Fort Titus" raged for several hours, with theattackers suffering many wounded (plus Shombre) and not untilafter six to nine (depending upon the source telling it) cannonballs formed from the newspaper type Titus and his men had throwninto the river after sacking the Herald of Freedom were fired atthe house, shattering it, and a wagon load of hay was to be setafire and pushed against the house did the wounded Titus surrender.(Although the words may differ, the cannoneer supposedly cried,"This is the second edition of the Herald of Freedom I" as the firstround from the cannon struck the "fort."

Captain Walker who had taken the prisoners to Lawrence and hadsecured them all except Titus in the newspaper building, laterstated: "...our arrival in Lawrence created intense excitement.The citizens swarmed around us, clamoring for the blood of ourprisoner (Titus)...(he) had surrendered to me; that I had promisedhim his life, and that I would defend it with my own...I approached the house where Titus was confined and entered. Just as I opened the door I heard pistol shots in Titus's room and rushed inand found a man named 'Buckskin' firing over the guard's shouldersas the wounded man lay on his cot. It took me but one blow frommy heavy dragoon pistol...outside...the mob (wanted) to hang Titusdespite my objections...but the sight of my 300 bayonets heldthem in check."

Colonel Titus, having been commissioned prior to his capture,turned over his sword given by then-Governor Shannon to him to aColonel Harvey and this piece of memorabilia is at the Kansas StateHistorical Society's building.

Despite the animosity against the "border ruffians" as menof Titus' ilk were called, he remained in Kansas until December and,although hard to believe, attended several functions where he wascordially received.

On leaving Kansas, the colonel and about 100 men sailed downthe Mississippi River to New Orleans where they boarded the steamerTexas and went to join another filibuster, General (his own designation, I believe) William Walker who was then fighting the CostaRicans in Nicaragua.

The adventures (misadventures?) of Titus in that strife-torncountry brought about abuse from not only friend (?) and foe, butfrom the media covering this war brought on by Cornelius Vander-bilt in his quest to build a railroad across Nicaragua. (It isunfortunate that Titus left no documents to refute the chargesagainst him; possibly because they may have been true—at leastin part.)

Arriving in Nicaragua, Titus found much dissension between thelower commanders of Walker as well as the poor morale of the menwho'd come to win their fortune in that mosquito-infested country.Probably much of the trouble was due to Vanderbilt having withdrawn his support (money) from Walker, leaving both officers andmen with little to fight for. This is not to say that Walker andsome of his commanders were ready to give up the fight since ifhe won, Walker would be the country's president.

One of the first missions given to Titus and about fifty ofhis men was to capture Castillo Viejo and the fort which overlooked the river, the fort being commanded by a British soldierof fortune named Hauty.

The first part went well for Titus, he having saved one ofthe ships Hauty had tried to burn. With the ship in runningorder, the order was sent to Hauty to surrender. According tothe Britisher, Titus plied him with drink, all the while tellingof his superior forces, a story Hauty did not believe. Beingeither over confident, a gentlemen soldier or just plain stupid,Titus agreed to give the enemy 24-hours to contact his superiorfor permission to surrender the fort. Naturally, reinforcementswere rushed up and Titus and his men were routed; however, theScott, the ship Titus had saved, was used to save Titus and hismen from annihilation.

14

A Colonel Lockridge, along with four hundred men, boardedthe Scott on the return of Titus and that force set out to capturethe fort. Without getting within gunshot range, this much superiorforce turned tail and retreated, yet this colonel was not accusedof cowardice nor lack of leadership. (One newspaper article reported: "Whether Lockridge thought there was a trap set for him,whether he was deceived as to the strength of the fortifications,whether his men refused to fight, or whether at that criticalmoment he received countermanding instructions is- not known; itis known, however, that Lockridge did not fire a single shot atthe enemy.")

The next step for Titus was to proceed to Panama and join-upwith Walker at Rivas; unfortunately—again—he cursed out QueenVictoria to some British naval officers and was arrested, butsoon released due to lack of jurisdiction by the British.

No sooner had he been set free then he went to the Americanconsulate where, on being told he had no legal rights as a fili-busterer, again resorted to vile language, an act which broughtabout another arrest, only by the Americans this time and he wasthen thrown into the brig aboard the U.S.S. Saratoga.

Free, Titus sailed on the ship Tennessee to Panama where, asreported by the New York Tribune, "The valiant Titus went aboutwith a loaded revolver in his fist, expecting that his outragedmen would really take his life."

In March, 1857, he joined up with Walker while the battle ofRivas was being fought; however, with Walker's aid ill, he tookthe position and set about determining the enemy's strength. Here,again, Titus was either stupid, afraid or under the apprehensionthat a man's word was his bond for he accepted a soldier's reportas factual and gave it to Walker. Of course, he was fired whendiscovered to be wrong. As the battle for Rivas was waxing hotand heavy, Walker refused to have Titus in camp; consequently,Titus was forced to leave, departing for San Francisco on thesteamer Sierra Nevada.

During the next few years, Titus was out of the news. (Minniethought he had a silver mine in what is now Arizona but said heleft after his brother was killed by Indians.)

With the Civil War, he became active again. Fact is, Unionrecords of 11 October, 1862 stated: "Colonel Titus, an ablesoldier, was on the west coast (of Florida) to get arms for fortifying an east coast city." (It is possible he was servingunder his father-in-law, Colonel Hopkins, who had troops on thewest coast of Florida and Titus had gone there to get his cannon.)

Whether he succeeded is not known, but it is known that he,while commanding the schooner Charm, was captured by Federal forcesin or near the St. Sebastion River. No war material was aboardbut there were several men trying to flee to Nassau to escapethe Confederate conscript. (Have times changed? Now it's Canada.)

Either the Federal forces were lax in their record keeping orTitus led a charmed life as there is no record of any punishmentreceived by him. In fact, Confederate records show that he wasin their employee as a supplier of goods in the years 1863 and 64.

According to his daughter, Minnie, it was in the late 1860sthat the colonel brought her and the rest of the family to Florida—for the second time, it sees, as she also relates an earlier trip.This was the last trip for Titus,he deciding to settle in what isnow known as Titusville.

Before his death in 1881, he had acquired considerable property in the area as well as many positions: postmaster, notarypublic, and hotel owner. The latter was his pride and joy and heloved~to regale visitors which included British and Italian royaltyas well as many wealthy and prominent Northerners.

He is supposed to have, in his final years, seated himselfon his hotel's porch, a rifle across his knees, and challengedany of his so-called enemies to come within range. There is norecord that he shot anyone.

Titus loved his town and, through his efforts, got the countyseat established in Titusville by donating the land on which tobuild the county buildings; however, he had one proviso: Theland would revert to his heirs if the courthouse and/or seat ofgovernment was moved from the deeded property.

15

For those who'd like to inherit this valuable parcel, well,you'll have a long wait. A new and imposing courthouse has beenbuilt and from the looks of it, it'll be there a long time tocome.

CHUMASH CAVE PAINTINGSThe Chumash Indians of Santa Barbara and the surrounding area leftthe richest legacy of prehistoric rock paintings in North America.They were a people who believed in a supernatural world which wasas real and easily visualized as the .natural world, and many of theChumash Rock Paintings are probably depictions of supernatural beings or phenomena. The Chumash made a strong vision producingdrink from the root of Datura or Jimson Weed. No doubt many of theabstract Chumash design found in these paintings were conceivedunder the influence of this aboriginal.hallucinogen.

Travis Hudson, curator, Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History, has specialized in Chumash Indian research and is scheduledto do research at Moscow' State University and the Leningrad Academy of Science and the Institute of History in Novosibirsk, in theSoviet Union in the near future. The trip has been arranged through the National Academy of Sciences and the Academies of Scienceof the USSR. He is the first California anthropologist selectedfor such a trip and feels that the exchange program is an exceptional opportunity to study, first hand, extremely rare objectscollected by Russian explorers in California well over a centuryago.• The Russians have some objects, including Chumash baskets,collected between 1806 and 1843, they cannot identify or have little knowledge of. He feels he can help explain some of their artifacts and make the trip mutually beneficial. The Russians wish topublish two of his papers on archeo-astronomy, a field Hudson hashelped develop. It is a study through field research of what theIndians knew of astronomy. The Miwoks were a tribe in northernCalifornia and the only Miwok basket know to exist is in the SovietUnion.

A photograph of the mysterious Indian cross, flanked by apair of flags, above a row of triangles, which once adorned theright hand bell tower of the Santa Barbara Mission until it was destroyed by the 1925 earthquake, and was so placed that it couldonly be seen at certain times of the year when it was lighted bya ray of the sun (the Mission's Stonehenge?) was reproduced in theDecember, 1981, ANCESTORS WEST.

French explorers first came into the Indiana region about1679 - more or less a wilderness inhabited by a few Indians.During most of the 1700's only white men were fur traders.The first permanent community developed around Vincennes,which was fortified about 1732. In 1763 the area fell toBritain. Indian uprisings made settlement difficult. In1779 Vincennes was captured by the Americans. The wholeregion was acquired as part of the Northwest territory in1787. Indiana Territory was organized in 1800 and statehoodcame in 1816. The first counties to be settled were Knox,Harrison Switzerland and Clark, in the extreme south end.Settlers came from Virginia, Kentucky and the Carolinas, anda group of Swiss emigrants settled in the southeast part ofthe state. About 1830 many German and Irish came to the Wabash and Ohio river sections. About 1850 New Englanderscame to the northern counties. The central part of the statewas the last to be settled. Quakers left Tennessee and theCarolinas, settling in Wayne and Randolph counties along theOhio border. With the development of industry many CentralEuropeans came to the northwest part of the state,adjacentto the South Chicago area.

GLTNES FAMILY

The transcription of an Oral History Tape recently donatedto the Santa Barbara County Genealogical Society discloses muchdata concerning the Glines Family.

JOHN H. GLINES was born near Churchville, Quebec, CanadaFeb. 16, 1831 and was married in Missouri to MARY ANN EVANS, bornSept. 2, 1832 in Richmond, Ohio. He and his wife started overland for California, stopping for a time in Salt Lake City, Utah,where their eldest child, CASIUS H. GLINES was born in 1851. Herbrother, ISRAEL EVANS, at one time worked for Tom Marshall, the discoverer of gold in 1848 at Sutter's Mill. In 1852 Casius Glinescame on to California, engaged in freighting from San Bernardino toSalt Lake City and in the stock business. His family joined himin California where he was running a ranch near San Bernardino.While ranching he ran a pack train into the Bear Valley Mines for ayear. The family moved about considerably - in 1862 they lived inWatsonville and in 1864 in Sacramento where he was freighting tothe mines in Virginia City, Nevada. His son Casius (or Calasius)recalls in the taped interview that his father was offered 13 acresnow within the Sacramento city limits in exchange for a mule. Theoffer was refused as mules were hard to get and he made his livingby their use in the freighting business. In 1876 he came to theSanta Maria Valley to join his son who had come down the previousyear. 1877 was a dry year and prospects uninviting, so the familymoved on to what is now Orange County - then a part of Los AngelesCounty. She died in Orange County in 1884 and he in 1897. Theywere the parents of 12 children, of whom 5 sons and 5 daughtersgrew to maturity. They were CASIUS (CALASIUS) H.; Mrs. MARY A.JOHNSON, of Covina; DAVID who died in Santa Ana; HARRY 0. living inSanta Ana at the time of the taping; JOSEPH of California; DOW inArizona; Mrs. ELLA BOYD in California; Mrs. OLIVE KING deceased; andANNER, of California..

CASIUS went to school in the various places where his familylived, including the Intermediate School at Sacramento. For a whilehe lived on Sutter's treek in Amador County mining for gold and quartz.He was but 20 years younger than his father and was always associatedwith him in business affairs until the family moved to Santa Ana andhe remained in the Santa Maria Valley. He looked upon his parentmore as a companion than a father and was always so treated by him.The outlook in the Santa Maria Valley was discouraging, but fatherand son set to work and by dint of hard labor developed a valuableproperty doing a very successful business in general farming. Hefirst came to the Valley in 1875 when what is now Santa Maria wasknown as Central City and comprised 4 blocks at Main and Broadway.In the winter of 1883 he set out one of the first family orchards inthe Valley and a vineyard of some 200 vines. All grew and thrivedand about five years later he took a premium at a fair in Santa Barbara for his apples. He later improved several ranches and at thetime of the taping owned 120 good acres near Orcutt and a 1,300 acrestock ranch and was a half owner with his eldest son in 200 head ofcattle. Also the comfortable home in Santa Maria purchased in 1908.A Government claim on 160 acres which could have been proved up bypaying $2.50 per acre was let go because it was unsuited for agricultural purposes. It wasoil-producing at the time of the taping.

CASIUS served as trustee in the Pine Grove District for 20years, part of the time as Clerk of the Board. He also assisted inorganizing the Washington School District and was clerk and trusteewhile he lived there. He was one of the organizers and a past grandof Santa Maria Lodge No. 302 IOOF. Politically he was a Democrat.

In 1872 at Summit Flat, Shasta County, Casius married SARAH B.MARTIN, a daughter of THOMAS J. and SARAH JANE GOATLEY MARTIN, bornin Missourie; died Santa Maria Feb. 22, 1913. Their 8 children were:CHARLES H.,partner with his father in the stock on Glines" Ranch onthe Alamo; married ANNIE PURVIS; one child at the time of the taping.JOHN T., a stockman and father of 5 children; wife DORA HOLLOWAY,whoseparents were early settlers and the first couple married in Santa Maria.ROBERT CASIUS,born Feb. 1,1877, married CORA McCROSKEY; 4 children.BELLE, wife of WILLIAM McDONALD of Santa Maria; HULDAH, wife of M.M.PURKISS field manager Union Sugar Co. at Betteravia; 2 childrenEMMA, at home;JAMES L. married ETHEL DEMSTER; 1 son; cashier FirstNational Bank of Santa Maria; city treasurer; PHEBE, at home.

RECOMMENDED READINGJff ENGLISH WAYS, David Grayson Allen. The Movement of Societies and the Transferalof English Local Law and Custom to Massachusetts Bay in the Seventeenth Century,winner of the Jamestown Prize for Early American History. Concentrating on thetowns of Rowley, Hingham, Newbury, Ipswich and Watertown, the author takes issuewith the historical tradition that assumes a transformation occurred in the legal,social and institutional lives of the immigrants who came to Massachusetts Bay.Instead, he contends, early settlers gave up as little as possible of their formerways of living - their English ways. Each of the five towns drew its populationfrom a markedly different type of English region or subregion. Rowley settlersbrought with them the cannon-field farming and conservative landholding patternsof their Yorkshire heritage. Hingham's control by an oligarchy of prominent families mirrored the social structure of Hingham, Norfolk. Newbury's religious unrestand canmmity instability reflected the divergent traditions of its Wiltshire-Hampshire area. Ipswich fostered a conmercial spirit like that of its English urbancounterparts, and Watertown's small body of ruling selectmen borrowed their ideasof local government from experience in East Anglian rural towns.PURITAN VILLAGE, Sumner Chilton Powell, Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in History,1963,c.wesieyan University, examines the formative experiences of Sudbury, Mass. andthe diverse backgrounds of four of the town leaders. Peter Noyes and others wereable to settle Sudbury as an open-field conmunity and to govern and manage it withalmost no direction from outside.

SEARCHING FOR NEW ENGLAND - NEW YORK ANCESTORS?

A flyer has been received from the Seattle Genealogical Society,asking that it be allowed to helpi

A register of New England andNew York residents being researched isscheduled for publication by Seattle Genealogical Society in Fall of 1983.

To qualify, an ancestor must have lived, been born, married or diedin the New England states, of New York prior to 1850.

When completed, this softbound book will be a reference to otherssearching your lines, surnames and perhaps your ancestors. Designed as a bookwith a limited time span - up to 1850 - and a limited geographical area,this will be a useful tool for those blocked by the absence of names of allfamily members in the census emmerations prior to 1850.

Seattle Genealogical Society invites participation by all whose families were in the New England states or New York at the appropriate time. Membership in the Seattle Genealogical Society ($10.00 per year) and submissionof 3 x 5 cards in correct style are the only requisites.

Deadline for submitting cards is set for June 1, 1983. For a flyeron how-to, send SASE to SGS. Box 549, Seattle, WA 98111. Entry in the book doesnot obligate you to buy the finished book.

WALL STREET JOURNAL ARTICLE - FEBRUARY 15, 1983Ken Wells, Staff Reporter of the Wall Street Journal, headlined FLOSSMCOR, 111.tells of the marriage of Jerry Simon, 57, and retarded since the age of two,and Lorraine Russak,41, in whose case hardening of the skull had hindered development of the brain. They met at a card game at the Santa Barbara, Californiacampus of Devereux Foundation, a Pennsylvania-based shelter for the retarded.whereboth are longtime clinets. Now, 12 years later, amid rapid, fundamental changesin society's attitude toward the retarded - the couple's wish to marry has cometrue.Lorraine is able to interpret Jerry's speech for untrained ears. If figureseluded her, words mystified her, memory sometimes failed her, Jerry could read,write and handle numbers. His memory is phenomenal. Together they made awhole person; with teamwork they felt they could do anything. Their familiesagreedto the marriage, provided Devereux would continue its supervision. ButDevereux officials balked, and society generally has frowned on such marriages.Thirty-eight states and the District of Columbia still restrict or ban them,though the laws are poorly enforced. Behind the statutes is the specter of defective or dependent children and chronic welfarism, although research has shownthat roost retardation is not hereditary. After three years of hedging, Devereuxfinally gave its consent. It is harder than they thought it would be. There isan apartment to look after, meals to cook, clothes to wash, a modest amount ofspending money to manage. Both live off allowances from their families anr* smallincomes from their jobs at Devereux. She works in the laundry; he in a recyclingcenter. They have to get themselves to work on time, see that Jerry gets to hisspeech and exercise classes. Some of the problems: Poredom, burn breakfasts;too many TV dinners; appliances left on; a few loud arguments that disturbed theneighbors. A Devereux aide comes by most days to help plan meals and organizechores.
