John Schwegler's Burial
The last tributed of respect was give to the late John Schwegler last Saturday afternoon at the Evangelical church, where a simple but impressive service was conducted by the pastor, F. Klump, who was assisted by Rev. G.J. Kirn, presiding elder of Flint District.
The fact that the grim reaper Death is fast thinning out the male ranks in the local Evangelical society made an unusual impression during the funeral service of Mr. Schwegler. His death was caused by typhoid pneumonia and the same composure which characterized his life was uppermost during the days of suffering and dissolution. John Schwegler was born in Germany in the year 1834. At the age of 20 he immigrated to this country and resided for many years in the state of New York. In 1881 he came to Cass City where he has lived ever since. Mr. Schwegler was highly esteemed by all who knew him. He was a man of few words but ever conscientious and honorable in all his dealings. He leaves a widow, one sister and many other relatives.

An Imitation of Christ
Scripture and message
Written and Delivered by Daniel Bethel, Grandson
12:9-21
Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another. Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.
Bless them which persecute you; bless, and curse not. Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath; for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thrist, give him drink; for in doing so thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
1 Thessalonians 4:11-12
And that ye study to be quiet and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
Message
The theme of this message is, "an imitation of Christ". That is who Marjory was. The first Scripture, Romans 12: 9-21, was selected by Marjory for this occasion. The Scripture describes the way Christians are called to live and Marjory sought to obey it. The second Scripture, 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 is a Scripture that Marjory read when she was younger and deeply defined her life an important crossroads. Allow me to tell you the story in brief:
As many of you might know, Marjory was salutatorian of her high school class. And even if you didn't know that, you probably know she was an extremely intelligent. After high school Marjory was awarded a scholarship to attend college by a local church group. At first, Marjory accepted. However, there was a series of devastating fires in the community and left several families in dire need and homeless. The victims of the fires came to the church asking for financial assistance but the church could not help because the money was already promised to Marjory for her scholarship. When Marjory learned of the need in the community she returned the money to the church instructing them to give it to the victims of the fire. She never went to college.
As I thought about this story and about Marjory I began to see the imitation of Christ - both intentional and unintentional in her life. I would like first to share the, perhaps, unintentional.
Christ and Marjory were both very intelligent people. They had opportunities to use that intelligence to advance themselves. Christ could have easily gone to Jerusalem, studied with and astounded the great teachers of His day - as early as the age of 12 but He chose to stay in His community. Likewise Marjory could have gone on to have higher education and accomplished who-knows-what. But she chose to stay in her community. Christ and Marjory saw needs in their communities and humbly sought to fulfill them. For approximately 20 years or more Christ learned the family trade of carpentry and worked hard to use this sustain his family and help others in need. Much the same way, Marjory married, learned the Battel family trade of maple syrup and farming, and worked hard at both. Finally, as noted before Christ and Marjory were both very intelligent people but neither had great schooling. In fact, when Jesus first started his ministry those who knew Him were astounded by His knowledge and wisdom. Christ was filled with the Holy Spirit which guided Him though His life and teachings but I do not believe that Christ just automatically knew the Scriptures He quoted. During his 30 years He very likely went to his synagogue, read, and learned the Holy Scriptures on His own initiative. Marjory did much the same. After turning down the scholarship Marjory made a commitment to learn all that she could. Not only did she educate herself in the Bible but in may other areas of subjects. Both Christ and Marjory did not begrudge what they did not have but rejoiced and took advantage of what they did have.
Yet that is not all to be said because Marjory very much intentionally lived as an imitation of Christ. The passage of Romans describes the actions of the Christian life. Now as a human being Marjory was not perfect; like all of us she had sins to be forgiven and imperfections to overcome. But that is not what we focus on when think of her. We think about her service, her unconditional love, her humility, her wisdom, and so on. And those we will miss the most. Yet I want to make an audacious claim. The awe-inspiring and admirable acts of service and character were not inherent in Marjory. She was simply not born like that. Those are merely fruits of her greatest accomplishment - the one we should respect the most. Marjory Battel's greatest accomplishment was her daily submission and obedience to Christ her Lord. What we will miss most about Marjory Battel is Christ in Marjory Battel. In a world where Christ is hard to see and often misrepresented, Marjory's submission shined the Person of Christ like a lighthouse on a dark and stormy night - and we were all drawn to it. The Apostle Paul describes it as such in his letter to the Galatians 2:20, "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I but Christ liveth in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me."
And finally, here is Gospel, here is Good News for us today. What we loved most about Marjory Battel does not pass with Marjory Battel. Christ lives and therefore we live and can choose to live the beautiful and powerful life of Christ as Marjory did. What we feel we have lost, can be found once again. If are but willing to submit and obey Christ as much as we can, even as Marjory imperfectly did, we fill find that the wounds received in her departure can be healed and that Marjory's life is also our life for it all is One Life found in Christ.
The October 3, 1924 issue of The Cass City Chronicle, page 4, column 4, noted in Local Items that "Mrs. Benjamin Schwegler and Mrs. Fred Jaus entertained a number of relatives and friends at the home of the latter Wednesday evening in honor of their niece, Miss Donelda Gregor of Puslinch, Ont., who was visting...the time was passed pleasantly in vocal and instrumental music and games after which refreshments, including a weenie roast, were served." In the August 26, 1927 issue of the same paper, also in Local Items, it was noted that "Miss Laura Jaus returned Wednesday evening from a ten-day visit with her Aunt at Puslinch, Canada. Her cousin, Miss Donelda Gregor, returned with her and will spend a few weeks with relatives here."

Maggie Battel Bethel indicates that she died of ovarian cancer.
Maggie Battel Bethel writes that her "Mother and Grandma always told the sad story of Sam and Louisa. He died of a horse kick to the head, and Louisa was pregnant with Ben at the time and about to deliver. She took the death of Samuel very, very hard and grieved the little boy. When she had the new baby boy, she felt guilty and could not look him in the face without bursting into tears, so when they would bring the baby to her to nurse, she would cover him with a blanket. This obviously was eventually resolved, but was a family story shared between the mothers in the family."
The Michigan Birth Index instead has his date of birth listed as 30 August 1879.

Sometime after Sept. 15, 1817 (Nancy {Scoggins} & John Jones Bowie made purchases of property on that date from the sale of the estate of Jonas Scoggins) and before Sept. 11, 1818, Blassingame W. Harvey married Nancy (Scoggins) Bowie, widow of John Jones Bowie. On Sept. 11, 1818, "Nancy Harvey bought 3 lots in the town of Harrisonburg, and on Apr. 21, 1820, in Ouachita Parish, LA, Blassingame W. Harvey and wife Nancy Harvey, 'wife of the said Blassingame W. Harvey' for the sum of sixteen hundred and seventy-five dollars, sold to John J. Harvey 320 acres of the Scoggins old place, in Catahoula Parish, LA, also three town lots in Harrisonburg. The next day, John J. Harvey purchased of Nancy and Blassingame Harvey, two negro slaves, cattle, hogs, two horses, a yoke of oxen, a cart, and all their kitchen and household furniture."
"On Oct. 24, 1820, John J. Harvey 'for the love and esteem which he bears toward his sister-in-law, Nancy Scoggins, Widow Bowie, now the wife of Blassingame W. Harvey, brother of the declarent ... ' John J. gave all the property (lots not mentioned) back to Nancy."
Why would John J. Harvey buy his brother's property and then six months later give it all back to his brother's wife? Perhaps the answer is that Blassingame Harvey was preparing to leave his wife and his brother felt responsible for providing for her. According to tradition in the Harvey family of LA, "Blassingame W. Harvey 'ran off to Texas, leaving Nancy penniless in Ouachita Parish, and she m. his brother'." No marriage records are available to substantiate that the marriage occurred.
In 1830, Nancy was in Catahoula Parish, LA, where she was listed as head of the household on the 1830 census. She died in 1833, but no public record listing her heirs has been found.
Ethel applied for a Social Security Account on February 28, 1965, while a resident of Houston, Texas, with 9014 Richland Drive being her mailing address. She was 59 years old at the time, and reported that she was born on July 28, 1905 in Nacogdoches, Texas to Laura Lee Scott and John P. Scott.

NOTE: FindAGrave also has memorial pages for her parents, Rufus and Minnie Scott.
A beautiful woman with a rose-petal complexion. A cosmetic company, Francis Denny, paid her salary for a year to prevent her working for the competition. She didn't have to do anything. She was quite clear in her mind that her features owed nothing to cosmetics-she considered her regular drinks of iced water to be the secret.
She later had one breast removed. When she was ill young Lewis Adair Payne was called into her room for the purpose of being told that he came from a good family and he was never to forget it. Lewis lived in her home for a time.
She married Ray Hard. He had invented some sort of oil field tool.
After Florence died it is believed that a set of beautiful Japanese hand-painted Noritake plates belonging to her was given to Lewis Adair Payne. They are now in the collection of Penny Ethlen Payne.
On his Find A Grave memorial page, a photo of his military marker is shown, indicating he served in the US Army. He is linked to parents, John Peter Scott and Laura Lea Weeks.
He married, when he was past sixty, a plain country girl with a hammerlock on reality. She was much younger than he was. (Informant: Lewis Adair Payne).
A family genealogist, she did a lot of work on the Marshalls. In 1915, she compiled a single page handwritten family group sheet titled "Grand Father Marshall Family" from data presumably supplied by her mother, Lula Payne. The original is in the possession of Margaret Lou Rounds (Mrs. Clark) of Fort Worth. Her husband gave her a copy of Brook Payne's book when it was published in the 1930's.
In Lewis Adair Payne's Personal Journal he wrote on March 16, 1936 "I went up to see Orville who is near death and promised [his brother] Claude to return and keep him company while he watched over him. Suppered at Uncle Frank's [Gentry] and then back to be with Claude. Homer Strong [married to Anna Laura Payne] was there too and stayed until nearly 1 am. Claude and I not to bed until 2:30. He gave me money to eat breakfast one." On March 23 he followed up with a related entry "Saw Claude who says that Orville is much better considering."
Later in life, Lewis told Kenneth Harvey that Orville 'was a terrible talker' and that he never married.
The family was listed as follows on the 1860 St. Lawrence County, New York census:

Kase was welcomed into this world by his parents, Emily Brooke McLemore and Justace Shaiyenne Scroggins, at 4:52 p.m. on July 11, 2013.
In the early hours of July 12, 2013, he was welcomed to Heavens' gates. His parents were blessed to finally meet him and spend what little time they were allowed.
Kase is survived by his loving parents, Emily Brooke McLemore and Justace Shaiyenne Scroggins; grandparents, Varron & Rae Janette McLemore and Phyllis LaRue; uncles Vincent McLemore and Cody Lyons, all of Nacogdoches, Texas, as well as a multiple of great aunts and uncles, and second and third cousins who will always love and miss him.

Statement of Mrs. Sarah A. Harvey, made at her home in Sabine County, TEXAS
on the 24 day of Jan.A. D. 1913.
My name is Sarah A. Harvey. I was born on the 16th day of January A.D. 1826,
near the town of Florence, in the State of Alabama. I am the daughter of Jesse T.Scruggs
and Susan Thornton Scruggs. My father and mother moved from the State of Alabama,
to Sabine County, Texas, about the year 1836, and settled when we first came to Texas,
near Milam, and resided there about one year. We then moved to Hamilton on the Sabine
River, and lived there not quite one year, and moved fron there and settled on the
McAdams tract or land in Sabine county, and lived there a great many years. I was
married while living on that tract of land to Robert Harvey on August, 10th
1854, and after my marriage; my husband and I moved to the place I now reside on,
where I have lived ever since then, and this place I now reside is about two and
one half miles from the John McAdams tract of land. I knew Lawrence McGuire and his
family for many years. When my father and mother came to Texas about 1836, Lawrence
McGuire, and his family came with them, and all settled in Sabine County. Hambleton
McGuire, so I was told by Lawrence McGuire, came to Texas about one year before we
did, and we found him in Sabine County when we arrived there.
Lawrence McGuire's family when we moved to Texas consisted of his wife, a son
named Hambleton B. McGuire, and two daughters: one named Mary, the other named Arabella.
Lawrence McGuire was married one time, and by his said wife he had the above children.
My mother was Susan Thornton Scruggs, died after we came to Texas, and my father,
Jesse T.Scruggs, married Mary McGuire one of the two sisters of Hambleton McGuire.
My husband, Robert Harvey, had been married once before I married him, and his first
wife was Arabella McGuire, a sister of Hambleton McGuire, and a daughter of Lawrence
McGuire, as above stated.
Lawrence McGuire died in Sabine County, Texas, about year A.D. 1855, and he was
buried in the McGuire burial ground on the John McAdams survey in Sabine County.;
his first wife died prior to his death, and is buried in the same burial ground near
him. At the time of his death, Lawrence McGurie left surviving him; his son, Hambleton
B. NcGuire, who was a practicing physician; and his daughter Mary McGuire, who married
my father; and the children of Arabella, who was my husbands first wife, who was the
daughter of Lawrence McGuire as above stated. Hy husband, Robert Harvey, as the guardian
of his children by Arabella McGuire, his first wife.
Lawrence McGuire, at the time of his death was the Owner of a one-half interest
in a tract of about twelve hundred and eighty acres (128O), a part of the John McAdams
survey, in Sabine County, which he purchased, together with his son, Hambleton McGuire;
from John McAdams about the year 1848. He also owned some negroes, and had some money.
After his death, a division was made of his estate among his heirs, and Hambleton
McGuire was given as his part of the estate the interest owned by Lawrence McGuire
in the John McAdams survey in Sabine County, Texas; Mary Scruggs, nee McGuire, my
step-mother, received two negroes as her portion of the estate, and
the children of Arabella Harvey, nee McGuire, received cash as their portion of the
estate, and this money was paid to my husband Robert Harvey, who was guardian of said
children, and their father.
Hambleton McGuire after he received as his portion of the estate owned by his father
in the John McAdams survey, sold the land about the year 1861 to J. H. Burroughs.
Hambleton B. McGuire was frequently at our house, and was there just prior to the
time he sold his land to J.M. Burroughs, and was talking with my father, and he stated
to him that he was going to sell the land to said Burroughs. He was there a short
while after this, and stated that he had sold all the John McAdams survey to J. M.
Borroughs, and that he had also sold said Borroughs a Negro woman named Hannah.
J. M. Burroughs at that time was living on a tract of land adjoining the John
McAdams survey, and after the purchase of the John McAdams tract from Hambleton McGuire,
as stated above, he cultivated a large portion of the said McAdams survey, and had it
cultivated for about forty years, and at all times claimed it as his own. J.M. Burroughs
was an attorney at law, and Was ummarried.
This statement is made in the prescence of T. G. Minton, who signs my name hereto
at my request for the reason that on account of extreme age, 1 am unable to write,
and also in the presence of Docia Harvey, wife of Perkins Harvey, and in the presence

When he registered for the Draft during World War I, he was farming on Rt. 7 in Canton, Texas. He listed his date and place of birth as Oct 20, 1894 in Conral, Texas, and was shown as a resident of Van Zandt, Texas. He described himself as married and the father of one child. As no children are listed with the couple on the 1920 census, it would appear that the child died at a young age. He was shown as of medium build, with blue eyes and brown hair. The form was completed on June 5, 1917.
Find A Grave records show son Douglas Seay did indeed die in 1918, at the age of only 18 months. As no other children are listed with the couple on the 1930 or 1940 census, he may have been there only child.

*Dennis emailed, on May 21, 2023, that Betty STASTNEY, shown as Barbara's mother above, is not correct. Betty was born a FILIP. Her parents were James Ralph "Jim" FILIP and Julia Rose SLADEK. James died in 1950 and Julia second married Jaroslav "Jerry" STASTNY (note the correct spelling of STASTNY). I would suspect that's where the alternative surname is coming from but Barbara was 18 when her mom remarried so I doubt she was adopted and if so I have found no documentation to that effect. By the way Stastny in Czech means "happy" as in Stastny Novy Rok (Happy New Year).
The History of Sabine Parish, Louisiana (author John Belisle, The Sabien Banner Press, 1912) states that "in 1860 the white population of Sabine Parish numbers about four thousant, and there were less than two thousand slaves.
