23305 I6434  Trawick  James Jackson  2 Jun 1835  8 Apr 1899  Lynell Gentry notes that his headstone lists him as being age 64 at the time of the death in 1899, which would make his year of birth as 1835 instead of 1838.

Ken Harvey writes that they lived in Searcy, Arkansas when their their two oldest children were born. Sometime before 1871, when daughter Elzada was born, they moved to Coffeyville, Kansas; perhaps as a result of railroad advertisements promoting Coffeyville and Independence as two large towns on the Border of the United States and the Indian Territory.

The Homestead Act, enacted during the Civil War in 1862, provided that any adult citizen, or intended citizen, who had never borne arms against the U.S. government could claim 160 acres of surveyed government land. Claimants were required to "improve" the plot by building a dwelling and cultivating the land. After 5 years on the land, the original filer was entitled to the property, free and clear, except for a small registration fee. Title could also be acquired after only a 6-month residency and trivial improvements, provided the claimant paid the government $1.25 per acre. After the Civil War, Union soldiers could deduct the time they had served from the residency requirements. This served to opened western lands to qualified citizens, the Indian Territory of Kansas and Oklahoma-home to more than three dozen tribes-was subject to a series of legal measures that reduced its extent. A new philosophy of assimilation favored bringing Native Americans into the United States as individual citizens, rather than allowing them lands and tribal sovereignty-a philosophy that conveniently left many acres open for settlement.

However, these unassigned lands were not opened unitl 1889, and during the decades after the Homestead Act, settlers acting illegally forced the government's hand by squatting on Indian land. The Ingalls family, of Little House on the Prairie fame, was one of a group of white settlers who set up house on Osage lands in Kansas in the 1860s, before that tribe was removed (again) to Oklahoma.

The Trawick family did not stay long in Coffeyville. Kenn Harvey noted that "after the Jayhawkers became active they moved back to Searcy, Arkansas." In the late 1870's the family moved westward again, this time to Texas.

I also believe this certificate (below) is Andrew's and, as Ken suggested, he may have lived with his sister, Ida and Dr. Threkeld as we know they were in Frances, Oklahoma around that time.
Sure wish I knew where he's buried but Lizzie being a widow probably couldn't afford a marker. And I suspect he was buried where he died, wherever that was.

23322 I20279  Traylor  Izora Joan  27 Mar 1859  28 Jun 1941  According to her Texas Death certificate, viewable online at FamilySearch.org, Texas Deaths, 1890-1976, she was the daughter of Josh Traylor and Nora Milburn, both of Lousiana. The informant was her daughter, Mrs. F. M. Tillman of Mullin. Isora Casey died in Mullin, Mills County, Texas on June 28, 1941 of Apoplexy and Cardio Renal Vascular Diseases. She was born on Marcy 27, 1859, widowed, and a housekeeper. Her remains were to be interred a the Oakview Cemetery, Mullin, Mills County, Texas.


Izora's husbands were;

1. Mr. Folson, Jolson or Tolson. (only thing I've found is a T. Tolson was a land owner in Mills Co. TX)

2. J.A. Gentry - married Sept 1, 1894 in Mills Co. TX)

3. E.F. Casey - married either Dec. 22, 1919 or on Dec. 21, 1921. The 1919 date is in the marriage book viewed by Charles Strong and the 1921 date is given by Izora on the pension application. (E.F. Casey died March 13, 1924.)

On the 1900 census a 19 year old, single female, Attie Tolson (?), is shown as a daughter-in-law to J.A. Gentry. Believe she should be listed as his step-daughter and her name may be Addie. We know from the pension application that Izora died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. F.M. Tillman of Mullen, Mills Co. TX.

Honorable Geo. H. Sheppard,

Austin, Texas

Dear Mr. Sheppard-

We have the pleasure of submitting to you the pension application of Mrs. Izora J. Casey, Mullen, Texas, who is the widow of the Confederate veteran, Jesse Gentry, deceased, but who was a life long citizen and soldier of this state.

If there is anything short in this paper will be glad if you will so inform me.

Truly,

Chas. P. Nance

Duncanville, Texas 10-25-31

Dear Mrs. Tillman and your mother, Mullen, Texas;

We certainly have not only to thank you but congratulate both of you for the success attained. When papers are filed right then my source of information ceases. While the Comptroller recognizes my work as a pension agent very satisfactorily as a rule he goes by the law which directs that the action taken is to notify the applicant instead of myself.

The approval of a pension means much not only to the applicant but to me. Our success as a pension representitive depends wholly upon the amount as well as the quality of work submitted; and let me add, the quality of work governs the weil or woe of my employer. I could not have represented your dear old mother if I had not at first gotten your confidence as a pension builder and she perhaps for a long time to come would have groped in darkness still because of her unbelief in me as such. I have never in all my life laid down on any work undertaken in all these years that have come and gone, and by the help of my friends and backing of strenerous years of hard study and work and a familiarity of what I profess to be and know, I cannot lay down on it now.

My heart goes out in full sympathy and adoration for those grand old heroes who fought, bled and died a thousand deaths for your freedom and mine. My own parents bore the brunt of the conflict while it was on and my own dear brother, like thousands of others, was dragged from the bloody front more times than one as he fought valiantly to uphold General Parsons' and his flag.

Let me say to Grandma that there once was a time in grand old Texas when to ask for pension was, to a greater or less extent, humileating in the extreme; then, it was a necessitous undertaking; an applicant must have wrapped himself in the cloak of indignancy and begged at the gate for mercy. But thank God and the unconquorable ties that binds true friendship together, a pension today is the reverse; it is a token- emblematic of true friendship- it is a reward, tho feebly bestowed, for a service nobly performed. Oh, where is there a Texas today who is not proud that he is not only a Texas but a defender of the Southern Confederacy.

Texas still holds the faith in these old men and women as it did when mens souls were at stake back yonder in the sixties; they defended us then; today our great state, still cognizant of the fact, stands ready and willing to defend them now as they approach the last conflict of life.

We extend our congratulations to your old mother and if we have been instrumental in strewing roses along her pathway, and increasing the faultering steps she has made into a firmer grip on life - if we have served to make her last days her happiest days, our labor in her behalf has not been in vain.


Your friend,

23324 I6813  Traywick  Andrew Marcus  8 Oct 1846    Carmen Trawick, a grandniece, said the family called him "Uncle Andree." She says he was smaller than his brother George, and always wore his suit. He was a gentleman with good manners. There are pictures of Andrew, dressed in a dark suit and celluloid collar. A wedding picture of his daughter Cora also exists.

Confederate Veteran, XIX: 436 (1911) contains the following article:

"A.M. Trawick was born in Carroll County, Tennessee, October 8, 1846. His death occurred at Nashville, Tennessee. In a reminiscence of his service in the army he wrote that he was residing in Clinton, Arkansas when the war began and that he sought to join his brothers George and John who had enlisted in the 10th Arkansas Regiment; but as he was under 15, he was not allowed to go. In October 1861, when another company was organized, he left school to go with it, and was sworn into the 16th Arkansas on October 29, 1861. He gives in his diary a history of the movements of the regiment and their severe experiences in Arkansas. On March 16, 1862, they started on a forced march for Cornith, Mississippi arriving there on April 12, a few days after the battle of Shiloh. When the army fell back, Bragg started into Kentucky, and the 16th Arkansas went under Price to Tupelo, Mississippi, remaining there until September 15th, when it moved back to Iuka, where they had a hard fight on the 19th. They fell back again after that battle to Baldwin, Mississippi. About October 1, General Price and Van Dorn joined forces and on the 3rd and 4rth a terrific and disastourus charge was made on the Federal fortifications at Cornith. The 16th Arkansas was ordered about November 1 to Port Hudson, where they went into winter quarters. On February 18, 1863, young Trawick was promoted to lieutenancy. On March 14 the Federal fleet under Farragut advanced up the Mississippi with gunboats and moters. Two ships, the Harvard and the Monongahela, passed by the forts, but the famous old warship, the Mississippi, was set on fire and destroyed. This is a memorable event to all survivors of the forces there. Admiral Dewey was on of those captured upon leaving the burning ship. The mortor shells, thrown with great dilengence during the engagement, created consternation, as they could be observed by burning fuse going very high in the air and exploding with well-ordered fire as they fell. During that siege, Lieutenant Trawick was a volunteer with some men to occupy a most perilous position. In his written record he does not refer to it, yet he gave a thrilling account of it at a meeting of the Frank Cheatham Camp, U.C.V. After the surrender of Port Hudson, Lieutenant Trawick was one of those sent to Johnson's Island prison. he carried with him three books taht he took from his home: a Bible, Davie's Arthmetic, and Smith's Grammar. As soon as was practicable he to his books a list of useful ones, and became quite a close student. He read the Bible through twice and the Testament seven times. He was baptized in Lake Erie on March 27, wading through the ice to proper depth. His diary tells briefly of hardships in prison, and that they were kept on Johnson's Island until March 21, 1865 and thence sent to Fort Delaware, and kept there until June 13, 1865, when they were released."

The Godspeed Histories: Columbia, Tennessee, 1872 also contains a biography of Andrew, and also details his Civil War service. The article incorrectly describes the origins of the Trawick family, but otherwise is a useful piece.

"Andrew M. Trawick, M.D., was born in Carroll Co, Tenn, October 8, 1844, son of John and Diana (Cook) Trawick and of Scotch-Irish lineage, the Trawick family is traced to the great-grandparents of our subject, who came to America from Belfast, Ireland in 1765. The great-grandfather was on of nine brothers who were all said to be soldiers in the Revolutionary war. The grandfather was Robert Trawick, a native of North Carolina. Our subject's father was also a North Carolinian and was born in 1792. His mother was born in 1803. The father died in Tennessee in 1848 and the mother in 1860.

Andrew M. Trawick was the youngest of nine children and was reared on a farm. In 1860, he went to Arkansas and there, contrary to the wishes of an elder brother, attended school having a thirst for knowledge. In 1861, he enlisted in Company F, 16th Arkansas Volunteer Infantry as a private and was afterward promoted to 2nd Lieutenant. He was in the battle of Elkhorn, in 1862, Cornith and Port Hudson, where he was made prisoner of war. He was taken to Johnson's Island, Ohio, where he remained until the close of the war.

During his imprisonment he made good use of his time and still continued his studies. In 1865, he returned home to Tennessee, and a year later began the study of medicine in the office of Dr. A.J. Weldon, who was a benefactor to him. He attended lectures at the University of Louisville, and subsequently located near Davis, Tennessee, and there continued the practice fourteen years. He was appointed President of the Stewart County Medical Society in 18?? and in 1881 he attended Vanderbilt University, and in March of that year graduated from the institution. In 1881, he cam to Clarksville where he since continued, doing an extensive business. He was married in 1867 to Mattie B. McSwain, a native of Henry County, Tennessee, born in 1849. Of their eleven children ten survive: Archibald, Arcadius M., Ada, John D., Cora M. , Lulu B., George C. , Clara B. , Mary E., and Thrope B.. Our subject is an ardent Prohibitionist, a Mason and K. of H.

In 1863, while in prison, he joined the Methodist Episcopal Church South, and he and his wife and five children are earnest members of the denomination. He is a prominent and self-made man and excellent citizen."

23325 I7988  Traywick  Eleanor  1756  Yes, date unknown  Eleanor married Edward Hocutt, who bought land in Wake County, NC just after his father-in-law Robert Trawick died. September 1778 Edward Hockett entered 150 acres of land lying on the south side of Little River and the south side of Buffalo Creek, entry #566. In the 1790 census of Edward Hocut we are probably far off in in calculating his age and that of his wife, and in estimating the date of their marriage. "3 free white males 16 years and upwards including heads of families, 4 free white males under 16 years, 6 free white females including heads of families."

By checking the 1800 Wake County, NC census, we find that something there is either misinformation, or we do not know all the facts. Edward Hocut "Males, 4 0-10; 1 16-26; 1 26-45; females, 1 1-10 years, 1 26-45 years."

Edward Hocutt made the following conveyances of land, as recorded in Wake County, NC deed books:

12 Feb 1785 Edward Hocut of Wake Co to William Hocutt of Johnston Co, land partly in Wake and partly in Johnston, on Buffalo Creek; 150 acres conveyed to Edward by Lodowick Alford, and now conveyed to Edward's brother, William. Book F, pg 119.

About 1801, George married Artesia Carraway and on February 25, 1802 they were separated, according to the following agreement: "Know all men by these present that we, Elijah Carraway and Artesia Trawick, in the sum of 1000 pounds sterling...wheras an intermarriage had some time past taken place between the aforesaid George Trawick and Artesia Trawick, and wheras for divers good and sufficient reasons them whenceforth seperated..Artesia Trawick shall well and faithfully on her part perform and abide by the aforesaid voluntary and mutual agreement...shall never...molest and in anywise trouble the said George Trawick...shall forever renounce and quit claim to any right of dower..and keep away from him premises, unless with his consent and approbation."

Esther Trawick, a daughter of George by his first wife Tamer Segar, married Kinyon Taylor. They lived in South Carolina until 1833 or so. Later the family moved to Mississippi, where Esther was thrown from a horse. Because of subsequent complications, she died May 28, 1845. Prior to her death, Esther and her family were introduced to "Mormonism" and in September, 1844, one of her married daughters, Louisa Taylor Worick and husband Thomas Worick were baptised. The other daughters joined the church after their mother's death, and all three girls were among the early settlers of Utah.

23329 I6812  Traywick  George Washington  22 Nov 1844  20 Jan 1927  He was 6'7" and weighed between 235 and 250 pounds.

He was a confederate soldier, a corporal in the 10th Arkansas Infantry, Company C, nicknamed "Choctaw Rifles." He served with his older brother, John Gideon Trawick. The 10th was at Shiloh and Cronith, then was surrendered at Port Hudson shortly after Vicksburg fell, on July 4, 1863. After they were exchanged they went onto General Shelby's raid into Kentucky. During the war, George was captured by bushwhackers and came home either on parole or furlough, with a friend. Both men were stood on a high riverbank at gunpoint, facing the river with their backs to their captors. George's friend was killed with a shot to his head. George dived off the bank into the Red River and swam for his life. This story was still being repeated by his descendants in the 1980's. There is much speculation about the identity of the friend.

George was a strong patriarchal figure in his family, with great influence over his children and grandchildren. He was a succesful cotton farmer and enjoyed a good deal of community respect. He split up his farm and gave each child 100-120 acres plots as they were married. His home was destroyed by a tornado in 1923.

He was remarried to a Frankie D.

George was known as an eccentric, strong willed character in Quitman, not someone to be crosssed. The town banker, Ben Clark, recalls a knock at his door late one evening. George was there, pointing out a minor error on a deposit slip. Ben's punch line was that the mistake was in George's favor. He was a proud, independent man who didn't want to be obligated to anyone.

He was Methodist.

Lunsford Trawick is noted in the 1805 Sarepta minutes as a licensed preacher, the only Crooked Creek member named as a minister prior to 1837. It seems likely, given that the church had only 34 members at the time, that Trawick served as pastor in 1805, though this is unconfirmed. Trawick moved his membership to Mars Hill near Watkinsville in 1807 and died two years later. This seems to indicate that he may be buried in the Mars Hill cemetery, but if so his grave is unmarked. Trawick's daughter Esther married Johnson Freeman, and the couple are listed on the 1850 Crooked Creek church roll. Of note to local residents is the fact that longtime piano teacher Miss Montine Head of Jefferson was a direct descendant of Lunsford Trawick through Johnson and Esther Freeman.

John Hinton's land on Neuse River (entry 272, 9 May 1778). On January 17, 1779, James Watson conveyed to John Hinton Sr 555 acres on Poplar Creek, part of which had been given to Watson by Robert Trawick. (Book Q of deeds, pg. 112). In Deed Book R, pg. 10, and in 1801-2, we learn that David Hinton received land from James Watson and Rebekka, his wife, land granted Robert Traywick, dec'd by State, and drewn in lot #7 by James Watson and Rebekka in the division of said Trawicks land, 19 May 1801.

James Watson in the 1790 census of Wake County has 1 male 16 years and upward, including heads of families; 3 males under 16 years, and 4 females including heads of families. If these are all members of Watson's family, we can assume that the three boys and three girls range in age from 14 or 12 years to 2 years, thus arriving at Watson's approximate date of marriage.

From the 1800 census of Wake County, we learn that James Watson had the following numbers: males, 1, 1-10 years; males, 1, 10-16 years; males, 1, 16-20 years; males, 1, over 45 years (James born before 1755); females, 3, 1-10 years; females, 1, 10-16 years; females, 1, 16-26 years; females, 1. over 45 years (Rebecca born before 1755) (Courtesy Lynell Cordell.

23338 I6806  Traywick  Rufus L.  Nov 1833  Abt 1910  Rufus was born during an auspicious month. On November 13, 1833, between midnight and dawn, thousands of meteors showered the sky over North America. To the native peoples of the land, it appeared that the stars were falling out of the heavens. Some thought it was the judgment day. Others called it "The Night the Stars Fell".

A young girl who was a slave at the time of the event said "Somebody in the quarters started yellin' in the middle of the night to come out and to look up at the sky. We went outside and there they was a fallin' everywhere! Big stars coming down real close to the groun' and just before they hit the ground they would burn up! We was all scared. Some O'the folks was screamin' and some was prayin' we all made so much noise, the white folk came out to see what was happenin'. They looked up and then they got scared too."

The celestial phenomenon called "the most impressive and awesome display ever recorded" was, in fact, the Leonids meteor shower seen in one of its most impressive years. Viewers witnessed 50,000 to 150,000 meteors per hour, only equaled by the November 17, 1966 display, when the Leonid shower brought 150,000 meteors per hour. Debris from the comet Temple-Tuttle that orbits the sun every 33 years causes the shower.

He spent his childhood in Tennessee, and didn't go to Arkansas in 1860 with his brothers and sisters. He moved there after his second marriage, to a Nancy, sometime after 1880. Family stories say that he served in the CSA, but the records have not been found to substantiate this. He supposedly lost a finger during the war. Rufus must have been either a minister or a Justice of the Peace, as he was able to perform marriage ceremonies. (Source: Betty Curry of Muskogee, OK; Courtesy of Lynell Cordell)

About 1904, Rufus's wife Nancy was in the kitchen of their home near Gravesville, Arkansas. Having just churned, she ladled the butter onto a dish and was working the remaining milk out of the butter with a large spoon. At that moment, a tornado ripped off the roof of the house, leaving only the walls standing. The entire interior of the ruined, roofless home was littered with debris from the storm, then drenched with rain. Nancy surveyed the damage and commented "I'll swan. My butter's ruined!"

23371 I48194  Turek  Frank Joseph  28 Jul 1910  20 Oct 1978  Frank J. Turek, son of Frank J. Turek and Bessie Mlazovsky Turek was born on July 28, 1910, at Omaha, Neb.

When he was a small boy, his family moved to a farm in Saline County where he attended country school and helped with the farming. His leisure hours were spent hunting, fishing and trapping.

Upon graduation from Milligan high school in 1928, he went to work for the Biba Engineering Co. of Geneva. In later years he would remember fondly the 18 years he spent working for Biba Engineering with his brother, John, grading roads in and around the sandhills of western Nebraska.

Following the death of his father, he returned to farming with his mother and brother, Emil on a farm four and one-half miles west of Milligan.

At the onset of World War II, he volunteered his services in the U.S. Army, and was attached to the Armored Division at Fort Knox, Ky., as a gunnery instructor to enlisted officers.

He went overseas with the 20th Tank Battalion and saw action in France and Germany. He was honorably discharged from Fort Levenworth, Kas., and again pursued his career in farming with his brother, Emil.

Frank was united in marriage to Helen Beranek on January 6, 1947, and to this union were born two children, Lois and Frank III. He was a loving father and husband.

During this time he collected many antiques and he spent his leisure time from farming restoring them.

Due to health problems, he retired from farming and was employed at the Youth Development Center in Geneva as a stationary engineer until his retirement in 1975.

His retirement years were spent enjoying his grandson, Zak; gardening and fishing on the Nebraska lakes with his wife, Helen.

On September 22, 1978, he was admitted to Warren memorial Hospital in Friend and was later transferred to Lincoln General Hospital where he passed away on October 20, 1978.

Frank was preceded in death by his parents and is survived by his wife, Helen; children, Mr. and Mrs. Alan (Lois) Johnson of Milligan and son, Frank J. of Lincoln; and grandson, Zak of Milligan; brother, John K. of Geneva, George of Friend, Emil of Milligan and Joe of Geneva; sisters, Mrs. Dallas (Lucille) Lindsey of Morrow Bay, Cal., Mrs. Jack (Rosemarie) Parisot of Omaha and Mrs. Lloyd (Emilye) Hendryx of Tucson, Ariz.; and many nieces and nephews.

Funeral services were conducted from the Farmer & Son Funeral Home, Kotas Chapel, in Milligan on Monday, October 23, 1978, at 10:30 a.m., with Rev. Woodrow W. Wilson officiating. Interment with military graveside services was held at the Bohemian National Cemetery in Milligan.

23372 I48195  Turek  Frank Joseph  7 Mar 1958  30 Nov 2022  Obituary for Frank J. Turek III

A Graveside Committal of Ashes for Frank will be held on Thursday, December 15, 2022 at 1:30 p.m. at the Bohemian National Cemetery in Milligan, Nebraska.

Kim Dunker will preside over the Graveside Service.

Frank Joseph Turek III was born to Frank Joseph Turek Jr. and Helen Viola (Beranek) Turek on March 7, 1958 at the Friend Hospital in Friend, Nebraska. He passed away on Wednesday, November 30, 2022 at the Fillmore County Hospital at the age of 64 years, 8 months and 23 days. He was one of 2 children born in the family.

After a hard start, Frankie, as he was affectionately known, became a healthy little boy who was full of energy. As he became older, he enjoyed riding his bicycle all over Milligan with his friends, usually followed by his faithful dog, Fido. Frankie graduated with the Milligan High School class of 1976. He enjoyed playing football in his high school days.

After high school, Frankie was employed by Biba Engineering, Kawasaki of Lincoln, Timpte Trailer, and finally Kassik Milling in Milligan, Nebraska. Dean always said that Frankie was "one hell of a welder." He was eventually forced into early retirement for health reasons. After his retirement, Frankie enjoyed and appreciated a hog roast put on by the community of Milligan to help him with his medical expenses.

Frankie was married to Diane Wickwire and he loved her children, Amanda, Elaine & Jason, as his own. He and Diane were later divorced and in Frankie's later years he found companionship with his old friend, Julie Pimental. She was a constant friend for him for many years. They had much fun together and especially enjoyed a trip to Florida with Julie's sister and brother-in-law, attending Daytona Bike Week, the Lynyrd Skynyrd Bar, and watching a space shuttle launch as they viewed from Cocoa Beach.

Frankie loved all sports especially football and baseball. He was an avid Husker and Chicago Cubs Fan. He even took his beloved mother, whom he called 'Hubbard' to a Cubs game with several of his good friends. Frank also enjoyed listening to his radio, especially his polka music and rock 'n roll. When Frankie got his dish network tv he was excited to be able to watch all of his favorite sporting events and T.V. shows including Gunsmoke, Big Valley, Cheyenne, and various old movies. When Frankie was unable to drive, he was always ready to go on a road trip with anyone to any place, just to get out of the house.

Frankie had a twinkle in his eye, and he was truly one of a kind. Some would say he was a Milligan Legend with his booming voice and never-ending love of Rock 'n Roll music. He had a heart of gold, loved his animals, enjoyed a good party, strumming the guitar, and riding his Harley. He also had a passion for vegetable gardening. Hours were spent weeding the garden and tipping a couple cold ones in the process.

Frankie moved to Ohiowa in 2009 and resided there until his passing. While living in Ohiowa, he found part time employment with B.J. Mussman running the road grader and maintaining township roads in Franklin and Belle Prairie Township. In the fall, he would work the grader for many local farmers repairing the farm fields for spring planting. Frankie continued doing this job until a fall made it impossible for him to continue working.

When Frankie's health started to fail, he took it in stride and lived his life to the fullest until the end.

Frank was preceded in death by his parents Frank Jr. and Helen Turek.

He is survived by his sister Sara Lois Scott; nephew Zak Scott; close friends Julie Pimental, Cathy Meyer, and Sharon Elznic; 3 step children Amanda, Elaine and Jason; his loving dog Buddy; and numerous cousins and friends.
