She taught five years in country schools, Prairie Center in Marion County, then Hazel Dell in Harvey County and Brainerd in Butler County. Following that, she taught 20 years at Peabody Elementary School.

She married Merle Skinner June 6, 1943 at her parents' home in Whitewater. They lived on the farm northeast of Peabody for most of their married life. They had three children. Frances was a longtime member of Peabody United Methodist Church and its Womens' Society of Christian Service and various other church circles. She was a member of Sorosis for 61 years. She had also been a member of the Up and Doing club northeast of Peabody in the 1940s and 1950s. She had beautiful handwriting.

Frances enjoyed her flower and vegetable gardens, traveling, and spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. In her childhood she was active in 4-H. The high point of that period was baking an angel food cake in a contest at the Kansas State Fair in 1930. She won a $13 prize. She enjoyed helping her great-grandchildren with their 4-H projects. In 2005, shortly before she died, she was recognized at the Marion County Fair as the oldest former 4-Her there.

Frances and Merle celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in June 1993. When she turned 90 there was a party for friends and family. Frances celebrated every turn of the season and loved showing her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren each new wonder of the natural world. For many years she made daily notations on her kitchen calendars and now those calendars are a cherished record of our lives.

Frank farmed with his father. In 1911, when he was 33, Frank bought land at Coweta, Oklahoma, and began farming there. The same year he met Ida Stemmons who had come to Coweta to visit her brother.

In his later years Frank also carried mail to the train station. It was a thrill for his grandchildren to go with him to watch the Rock Island Rocket snatch the mail pouch from the yardarm where Frank had hung it minutes before. Frank would also thrill his grandchildren by taking them to the town dump where he'd pick up furniture items he could repair. At Christmas it was time to open presents when Frank came into the room shaking a set of New England sleigh bells.

Frank was a good-natured, gentle man who loved to work in his woodworking shop above his garage. He died March 17, 1958, at age 80, as he waited at the depot for the Rocket to pick up his mail bag.

577 From records located in Barnet Township, Vermont, Alden appears to have married Polly Haseltine. On the 1850 census from McHenry, Illinois, however, she is listed as Mary. She is also listed in that census as being 45 years of age, which would make her birthdate about 1805.

Need to do further research to determine if Polly and Mary were the same person or if Alden first married Polly and then Mary.

Cooper Jr. and Co., 1913 (Copy in Minnesota Historical Society, St. Paul), page 694.:

Mathias Staack, a pioneer contractor and builder of Winona, was born in the northern part of Germany, June 16, 1826, and came to America as a young man. After landing in New Orleans, he came up the river to Davenport, where he had a friend, arriving in that city in the summer of 1852. There he spent three years. Then he went to Comanche, in the same state, and there on December 5, 1855, he married Mary Peterson, who was born July 26, 1836. In 1856, he was persuaded by E.A. Gertzen to come to Winona. For a time he lived with Mr. Gertzen, and then erected at 522 East Fifth Street, the cozy little house in which he has since made his home. For ten years he engaged in the grocery business at the corner of Third and Kansas streets. This business was not, however, greatly to his liking, and he disposed of his store and started work on the North-Western, then in the course of construction between this place and Rochester. Then he went into the the general building and contracting business. In 1904 he retired. He is in excellent health, and is one of the substantial citizens of the city. He has been prominently identified with the Odd Fellows, and is one of the oldest members of that order in the city. He has also joined the Druids. The subject of this sketch has eleven children, twenty grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren. The children are: Emma, wife of Louis H. Thurow; Sophia, wife of H.F.

Louis H. Thurow, extensive box manufacturer, was born in Pomerania, Germany, September 14, 1860, son of William and Wilhelmina (Voght) Thurow. He received a good education in the old country and learned his trade as a cabinetmaker. At the age of eighteen he came to Winona from Germany, and secured work in a flour mill for several years. Then he entered the employ of the Bohn Manufacturing Co., and remained in its employ for twenty-seven years. In 1907 he started a box manufacturing plant at 625 West Tenth Street. The business grew immediately, and is now one of Winona's large industries. The present shops are located on West Third street, at the corner of Wilson. Mr. Thurow is the sole owner and proprietor. He manufactures wooden boxes, box "shocks," crates, beer and soda cases, window and door frames, poultry coops and the like. Mr. Thurow is a member of the Dryads and of the Eureka Club. The subject of this sketch was married in May, 1885, to Emma Staack, daughter of M. Staack. Mr. and Mrs. Thurow have seven children: Herbert, Otto, William, Clara, Laura. Gertrude and Hildred. William Thurow died in Germany, in 1870, at the age of forty-six years. His wife Wilhelmina died in Germany, in 1911, at the age of sixty-eight. Louis H. was the only one of the family who came to America.

AN INDUSTRY FOR WINONA

A Small Factory is to be Operatin in
This City by Two
Local Men
---------
MAKE EUREKA MOP WRINGER

The Device is Practical One and is
Being Received With Much Favor
--- Many of the Machines Are Now
in Use Here.
---------
A new manufacturing industry is now being started in Winona on a small scale with every prospect that it will grow to much larger proportions. The gentlemen back of the enterprise are L. Thurow and Arthur J. Smith, and the article which they have started to make is the Eureka mop wringer. The device is a practical one and has already found much favor with those who have given it a trial. It is the invention of Mr. Thurow. The first machine was made in WInona about four months ago.
The many good points of the device and the favor with which it has been received have encouraged Messsrs. Thurow and Smith to engage in its manufacture. Up to the present time they have had the machine made at some of the woodworking plants in the city, but now they have decided to engage in its manufacture themselves, and have accordingly proceeded to the erection and equipment of a small factory budiling and expect to begin making the mop wringers in a about a week or two. The factory builing is located on West Howard street and is a frame structure 20 by 35 feet in size and two stories high. The manufacturing business will be carried on on the ground floor and the second floor will be used for storage. An electric motor will furnish the desired power.
There are already fifty of these machines in use in WInona and these are creating a demand for more. At the courthouse and the Winona they are in use. A few shipments have been made outside the city. Withe the completion and equipment of the factory building an endeavor will be made to push the sale of the machines, and it is expected the business will grow very considerably in the near future.
The Eureka mop wringer is buildt and designed for speed, durability, service and strength. With it a a wonderful pressure is produced with only light leverage power aided by four rollers. Large rollers spread the mop and small rollers regulate the speed. The machine is being made in three different sizes, ten inch for flat or residnece use, twelve inch a medium size for general work, and the large fourteen inch for all around work. The movement of the mop thru the rollers is produced by turning a small crank, doing away with the use of both feet and also the strain of the back. The two main rollers of the wringer are of hardwood. The first or feed roller is deeply corregated as to more easily raise the mop thru the rollers. Both rollers are deeply grooved on each side crossways so to prevent the water from flowing over the edges of the pail. The pail may be quickly changed or emptied without moving any part of the wringer.

INDUSTRY OF BOX MAKING
---------
Has Been Started in Winona and Ap-
pears to Have Bright
Future
---------
STARTED BY LOUIS THUROW

If it Secures the Home Patronage it
Deserves it Should Become a Very
Successful Undertaking - On West
Howard Street
---------
A manufacturing industry which has been started on a small scale but for which there appears to be a large field if the encouragement of home patronage is bestowed is being carried on by Louis Thurow at 625 West Howard street. Mr. Thorow has engaged in the manufacture of boxes. He has since the winter been associated wtih A.J. Smith in the making of patent mop wringers, and now the box making will be carried on at the same place, but it is expected to enlarge the industry considerably.
While Mr. Thurow has been interested in this business for some little time the work has been done by Charles Beeman, but now Mr. Thorow has resigned his poisition with the Empire Lumber company and is giving his whole time to this work. At present Mr. Beeman is not there owing to an injury he recently received to one of his fingers, but when he has recovered from this he will return.
The box factory is now at work on a large order received from the Interestate Packing company for crates for its products. The demand for these creates will be more or less permanent and will alone give quite a little business to the factory. THre are many other manufacturing institutions here which use a good many boxes in the shipment of their product and Mr. Thurow proposed to docnuct his buisness in such a way as to merit and receive this patronage.
The quarters at present occupied on West Howard street are a two story barn. The lower floor of this has been fitted up into a workshop, and the upper floor is used for storage. For the present it is large enough to meet needs, but if the business grows enlarged quarters will be provided as necessary. Mr. Thorow, who has carefully looked over the ground, figures that there is plenty of business in this line in Winona to give steady employment to at least eight hands and he hopes to work up to the point where this number will be engaged.
Meanwhile the manufacture of the mop wringers will not be abandoned. An extended writeup of these wringers and their particular merits was given in these columns last spring. There are quite a number of these wringers now in use in Winona and they have received the hearty endorsement of those using them. As their merits become better known outside the city the demand for them is expected to increase. As yet they have been but little represented on the road. But by pushing their sale the number to be made could be increased quite materially
Many a large manufacturing institution has grown from such a small beginning as this and Winona desires to encourage small as well as large manufacturing institutions.

Clarence E. Wilson, M. D., a physician and surgeon of Dakota Village, was born in New Hartford township, this county, November 2!, 1860, son of James G. and Sarah (Brown) Wilson. After receiving his preliminary education in the public schools, he entered the Chicago Independent Medical College from which he graduated in 1896. Since his graduation he has kept abreast of the latest developments in therapeutics and pathology by taking post-graduate courses in 1901, 1902, 1903, 1905 and 1910. After his completion of his course, Dr. Wilson opened an office in Dakota where he has since successfully continued in practice. Aside from attending to his medical practice, Dr. Wilson has been more or less identified with the agricultural interests of the county, and at one time owned a good farm. Dr. Wilson belongs to Pickwick Lodge, No. 110, A. F. and A. M., and to the Modern Woodmen of America, at Dakota. Dr. Wilson was married May 19, 1884, to Edna Harvey, who was born in Winona county, July 15, 1866, daughter of Fletcher and Rachael Harvey. Dr and Mrs. Wilson have six children, five of whom are still living. They are: Sibyl (deceased), Vida, Alice, Claude, Rolland and Sylbia. Vida is now Mrs. Daniel Luther, of La Crescent,.Minn., and has two children. Alice is now Mrs. Earle Smith, of Dakota village, and has three children. Rolland attends the Winona high school.

"OLNEY ARNOLD DIES ABROAD.
WASHINGTON, March 6. - Olney Arnold, American Diplomatic Agent and Counsul General in Cairo, Egypt, who announced that he was going home for good when he landed in Naples on Feb. 3, died yesterday in a hospital in Lisbon, Portugal.

Mr. Arnold received leave of absence recently from the State Department and was on his way to this country. His home was in Providence, R.I., and he had been in the Government service since September, 1913. Before his appointment, Mr. Arnold was a member of the Rhode Island Legislature, and in 1908 and 1909 was Democratic candidate for Governor of that State. He was 54 years old.

At the time of his departure from Cairo, his conduct was under investigation on charges made by American residents, which included unneutral utterances."

588 From the Winona Herald-Republican:

"Otto Thurow, the 10-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Thurow, living at 625 West Horward street, nearly lost his right ear as the result of playing with a topedo. The torpedo was of the railroad variety used in warning trains. The boy picked it up on his way home and then tried to open it with an axe. The result was that when he struck it out in the barn it exploded and the axe was thrown back and cut off his ear with the exception of a narrow strip of flesh, and he was thrown into a corner of the barn. Prompt medical attendance was given the lad, seventeen stiches were used in replacing the ear, and it is hoped it will grow back all right."

She Stayed in House Despite Bulldozers
By RUTH ROGERS
Sunday News Area Editor
LAMOILLE, Minn. - A for­mer Daily and Sunday News correspondent will be 90 years old Tuesday.
If this newspaper were still publishing neighborhood news columns, Mrs. Edith Stanton might still be wilting for us from Richmond as she did for 25 years, but when the Winona Republican-Herald, forerunner of today's publication, discon­tinued the “local” news items in 1945, she resigned.

THIS PRETTY little woman, however, could write a book about her experiences and those of her family. Her alert mind remembers everything about her forebears, the Tibbetts and Wilsons, without a glance at the manuscripts and letters that tell the same story.
Words tumble out about her experiences as a 16-year-old star route mail carrier; about Cou­sin Luther who raised the first seedless (navel) oranges that made millionaires of California growers overnight; the 200 pounds of shelled nuts she sold each season; of being routed from her home by highway building; of 16 people all sick with smallpox in a tiny pio­neer home.
She'll pause from her house­work-she lives alone and does her own cleaning and cooking-to sing all nine verses of a song written a century ago by a Tibbetts who left “Old Buck-eve” (Ohio) and sailed up the Mississippi River in a boat that “rang her bell at Catlin in the Minnesota Valley, the beauty of the West.”
She'll bring out an old violin her father played. It's a Joseph Guarnerius, made in Italy in 1715. “Ole Bull (famous vio­linist) played a Guarnerius,” she'll have you to know. It's said only seven were made; Oliver Tibbetts picked it up from a blacksmith in Dakota.

SHE NOT only knows the eastern part of Winona County, where she lives, but the west­ern part, too; she taught school at Lewiston and St. Charles.
The former Edith Cicel Tib­betts, she was born Dec. 12, 1887, on a 60-acre farm in Da­kota Valley, New Hartford Township. to Oliver W. and Mary Alice Wilson Tibbetts. “My second name isn't Cecil,” she explained; “it's Cicel; the pronunciation is on the second syllable, with a long e.”
The Tibbetts name is derived from the occupation of tip­pet making, a popular employ­ment in medieval days when tippets were worn by both sexes in the highest ranks of life, even by royalty.
The tippet, a hat with a long scarf or tassel, has found its way into modern life; knitted versions of a similar type are popular among the younger set.

VERSIONS OF her family name run far back in history, but the first of the Tibbetts from whom Edith is directly descended came to New Eng­land from old England in 1635 and have fought in all the wars of this land. The first of the family to come west settled in Ohio in 1807, in Indiana in 1816, in Iowa in 1843, and in Dakota, Minn., in 1847.
Jeremiah Tibbetts of Waver­ly, Bremer County, Iowa, came to Southeastern Minnesota when he was 17 with his friends, the Dakotah Indians, who asked him to accompany them as in­terpreter. They camped on the present site of Dakota, which Jeremiah named for redskins. He built a shack, transported provisions up the Mississippi by Canoe from Prairie du Chien, and started a trading post,
In 1848 Jeremiah accompa­nied the Indians to St. Paul. By this time he could speak six Indian dialects. Alexander Ram­say, territorial governor. sent him into the Big Wood country in Iowa to negotiate an agree­ment with hostile Indians. At first they were inclined to kill any messenger from the gov­ernor, but as they had known Jeremiah as a boy they agreed to accompany him to St. Paul; but before they left they held a dance in his honor.

JEREMIAH stayed In St. Paul until 1849, then sold his land in the center of the preseant city and trekked back to Dakota with two yoke of oxen and a span of horses.
At Dakota he found a trader, Peleau, in possession of his hut and repossessed it. Nathan Brown, who had settled north of him that year, was his only neighbor.
This energetic and restless young man worked on the riv­er, in 1853 took a quarter sec­tion of land on the ridge south­west of Dakota which was called Tibbett's Hill and later Mark's Hill, and the same year married Catherine Isabel Mayn­ard (accent on the last syl­lable), whose French Canadian family came from Ottawa and settled at Dresbach.
Theirs was the first wedding in Dresbach. He took his bride to Mt. Vernon, Iowa, to live with relatives, and there their son, Oliver, Mrs. Stanton's fa­ther, was born.

JEREMIAH'S father, George, the first of the Tibbetts to come to Iowa, had followed his son to Dakota Valley in 1850 and took up a farm south of where George Zenke now lives. Jere­miah was back in Dakota look­ing after his holdings when smallpox broke out in the set­tlement where his family was staying. When the head of the household died, he went back to get his family and the remain­ing four relatives, bringing them up the Mississippi on the Gray Eagle which landed at La Crescent, and thence to the house 16 by 20 feet that George had built.
The smallpox came with them, and the 16 people living in this tiny house fell ill. George died there in 1855 at 56, and one of the children from Iowa died. They were buried on the hillside hack of the house, where panthers, common in those days, molested their little cemetery.
The others recovered, and Dr. Lynch of Winona took Jere­miah's wife with him on his rounds to help other victims of the pox since she now was im­mune.

LATER THE hillside coffins were moved to the Wilson Cemetery in Dakota Valley, land which was donated by James Wilson, who had mar­ried Sarah Brown, sister of Na­than Brown. The cemetery is still there, bypassed by new I-90 grading.
James Wilson was the father of Alice Wilson, later Mrs. Oliver Tibbetts and of Dr. Clar­ence Wilson, who became a doctor at Dakota. Dr. T. H. Wilson, retired Winona physici­an now living at Catlin's Rock, Richmond Township is a son of Dr. Clarence Wilson.
By 1881 Oliver Tibbetts had purchased lots from Nathan Brown in Dakota, which he had platted, and built a home. There his wife died at 29 a few months after giving birth to her fourth child. Edith Cicel was then seven years old.
Edith attended the Dakota school, took the teacher's exam­ination at the courthouse in Winona under Supt. L. V. Wil­bur. and taught in the Firth District, Lewiston; Koepsel District north of St. Charles near Elba; Dick School on the ridge above Dakota; two years in the primary school at Dakota, and was teaching at the Richmond school when she coaxed a handsome young man named William Jacob Stanton to play the violin at school programs,

EDITH AND young Stanton were married June 25, 1904. They first lived in Miller's Valley west of the present Twin Bluffs Motel on the farm his father, Lewis Stanton, had set-tied in 1887. It remained in the family until this year when it was sold to Franklin Krause of Winona.
Edith's experiences, closely linked with roads, began when she was 16; occasionally she covered her father's 26-mile star mail route with a horse and buggy. The long day began at 8:45 a.m. at the Dakota post office. First stop, Ashton station on the right to the south-west. Second stop, Ridgeway, where she rested and fed her horse and ate her packed lunch. Third stop New Hartford, and then back to Dakota by 6 p.m.
In 1910 Edith and her husband moved onto a farm fronting the Mississippi River a short distance southeast of Millers Valley. The first dirt road the built up Mississippi River Valley in 1854 ran through their farm just under the Twin Bluffs; signs of it still are vis­ible on the property where she lives.

THEIR berry-growing and pasture farm began disappear­ing in the early 1920s when the state paid them $500 an acre for 2½ acres of frontage along the river for the first two-lane concrete slab from La Crescent to Winona - U.S. 61.
Mr. Stanton, Richmond Town clerk 28 years, winner of achievement awards for sale of Liberty Bonds during World War I and for serving on the Selective Service Board in World War II, did not live to see the rest of the land taken for the four-lane highway; he died of a heart attack in l952.
Through some misunderstand­ing the road graders moved onto her land before it had been purchased and Mrs. Stanton re­fused to leave her home even though the earth-moving ma­chinery roared around her and she was left literally high and dry. When she finally settled for $25 000, she climbed down out of her back door on a lad­der Sept. 6, 1957, and went to live with her sons until her lit­tle home on the service road, at the foot of King's Bluff, was ready.

THE DAYS when she sold carefully packed sacks of nut-meats at Kindts, Dorn's and Pletke's groceries and to individuals like Judge Loobv in Winona and to the Bodega restaurant m La Crosse are over but not forgotten.
She's busy writing Christmas notes to relatives and friends all over the country. There are Tibbetts in Portland. Ore.; grandfather George's brother, Gideon, lived here. Gideon and Mary streets are named for him and his wife, and Tibbetts Street bisects the Waverly-Richmond District named for him and perhaps for that Wav­erly in Iowa and Richmond in Winona County.
One of Edith's favorite stories is about Luther Tibbett, who like her father, was a seventh generation descendant from the Henry Tibbett who came to this country in 1635.

FROM HIS FARM in what is now Riverside. Calif., he drove horses 65 miles to Los Angeles in December 1873, to get a small parcel containing three little orange trees which the U.S. Department of Agriculture had secured from Bahia, Brazil. for experimental purposes. Luther got them be­cause his wife was a relative of Gen. Butler in Congress. Luther planted them beside his cabin. One was chewed up by a cow. By 1877, the other two each bore two oranges-the first seedless oranges grown outside the Amazon swamps. This started what has been called the most remarkable real estate boom in the history of this country; land which had gone begging at $30 an acre sold readily at $800 to $l,000 an acre for the planting of the new crop.
The two parent trees plant­ed by Tibbetts now are fenced in on the grounds of Mission Inn, Riverside. With them is a marker telling the story and bearing the Tibbetts name.

MRS. STANTON has two sons: Donald W., Lamoille, maintenance foreman with the state Highway Department, and Welford, also employed by the state Highway, who lives near Queen's Bluff. She has five grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren.
Donald's sons are Robert L., La Crescent, diesel engineer with Kertzman Dredging, La­moille, and Tom W., lineman with Northern States Power Co., Winona.
Welford has three children: Bruce, Winona County deputy sheriff; Richard, teacher at Washington-Kosciusko school, Winona, and Mrs. Rolland (Jean) Smith, Dakota.
Wearing a hearing aid does­n't bother this sprightly woman who'll be 90 this week; she has a loud speaker on her tele­vision set. She's had a cataract removed from one eye but sees handily through her magnified glasses. She's worried a bit about her high blood pressure. but nothing interferes with her interest in life and her good spirits.

"Reed Family History," by Mrs. Nellie Reed Sutherland: "Ephraim Wheaton was the son of Robert Wheaton, an early settler in Rehoboth, owning land there in 1658. In the double Volume 1 and 2 of Arnold's "Vital Records," on page 20, he says Robert Wheaton and Elce Bowen were married about 1636 at Salem, Mass. Elce Bowen was the daughter of Richard Bowen who was one of the early Pilgrims. Robert Wheaton followed Roger Williams from Salem south toward Providence in 1638 or about that date. The Wheaton family has produced many famous ministers and judges. Two of the latter endowed the Wheaton Female Seminary (now College) at Norton, Mass., 80 miles from Taunton and near Rehoboth. My daughter, Jean Sutherland, graduated from this college in 1913. It is about 80 years old now."
