1 NOTE Rucker was generally considered to be a kind father to his children.  Jos. Maurice Filiatrea
2 CONC u claimed that Rucker never spanked him or had a cross word for him.  Rucker bought his far
2 CONC m from his father in law, Blandford.  Apparently, Rucker was an astute businessman, and was f
2 CONC airly well off.  He helped people out financially during the depression.
2 CONT Rucker and his wife Josie were both very religious Catholics.
2 CONT According to Maurice Filiatreau, during the Civil War, Rucker was held down by a Confederat
2 CONC e Soldier at one point.  He was unsure whether the soldier would run him through with his bay
2 CONC onette or not.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Apparently, the Filiatreaus drank alcohol liberally.
2 CONT 
2 CONT According to Maurice, the Filiatreaus were fairly egalitarian in regard to African Americans
2 CONC .  At one point in the interview, Arthur Kelly asked him if any black folks helped Josie arou
2 CONC nd the house during her illness.  Maurice corrected him and said the neighbors, black and whi
2 CONC te, helped out.
2 CONT Later, he also stated that they when he was young, they would go to dances in peoples' parlor
2 CONC s.  The music would be provided by black and white musicians.

3 TEXT The Filiatreau Family-Written by John D. Filiatreau
4 CONT 
4 CONT Legend has it that Isaac Nazarre Filiatreau, the first of his surname to settle in Washingto
4 CONC n County, had been "stolen" as a child and packed off to Kentucky from Quebec.  This romanti
4 CONC c tale has not been substantiated, but the little that is known about "Nazarre" (or Nazaire
4 CONC " or Nazarie") suggests that it is plausible.  He told census officials he was born in Canad
4 CONC a on March 20, 1809.  He told his children that their forebears had crossed the water from Al
4 CONC sace, France.  His 1840 marriage, in Washington County, apparently was the first occasion t
4 CONC o warrant the recording of his name.
4 CONT 	Nazarre married Belinda Hayes (Brent), the daughter of John and Dina Hayes; she was 28 year
4 CONC s old and had a son, John Brent, b y a previous (1830) marriage to John G. Brent.  She and Na
4 CONC zarre had seven children: William Thomas, born in 1841, Columbus Rucker (1842), Robert Peyto
4 CONC n (1844), Anna Jane (1846), Isabel (1848), Nazariah Augustine ("Nat") (1849) and James Frankl
4 CONC in Pierce (1853-the year Franklin Pierce became the nation's 14th president, presumably wit
4 CONC h Nazarre's backing).
4 CONT 	Some records refer to Nazarre's wife as "Malinda".  Curiously, both names-Belinda and Malind
4 CONC a-reappear among the names given to the children of Columbus Rucker Filiatreau.
4 CONT 	Nazarre died on Dec. 30, 1898, at age 90, and was buried in St. Rose Cemetery.	
4 CONT 	Two of his sons, Columbus Rucker ("Ruck") and William Thomas ("Bill"), joined the Union Arm
4 CONC y together in 1861.  Bill was soon discharged because of illness, but Ruck saw action in a ho
4 CONC st of civil War battles.
4 CONT 	Early in the war, his Company K of the Tenth Kentucky Volunteer Infantry chased John Hunt Mo
4 CONC rgan away from the L&N Railroad.  During its three-year existence, the Tenth Volunteers saw a
4 CONC ction at Mission Ridge, Jonesboro, Corinth, Rolling Fork, Hoover's Gap, Fairfield, Tullahoma
4 CONC , Compton's Creek, Rocky Face Ridge, Resaca, Chattahoochie River, Vining's Station, Pickett'
4 CONC s Mills, Courtland, Perryville, Lookout Mountain, Bunker Hill, Mills Spring, Little Gettysbur
4 CONC g, and Chickamauga; some units marched across Georgia with Gen. William Sherman.  Of the 99 m
4 CONC en who joined Company K with the Filiatreau brothers, seven were killed in action and nine ot
4 CONC hers died while in uniform.
4 CONT 	Ruck, a battlefield nurse who drove a horse-drawn ambulance, was shot in the heel at Perryvi
4 CONC lle.  He won several decorations and was discharged as a vice corporal in 1864.
4 CONT 	Ironically, when he died nearly 70 years later, the cause of death was a foot infection.  I
4 CONC f it had to do with his old heel wound (one source has it that the fatal infection started i
4 CONC n a toe), he may have been the last casualty of the Civil War.
4 CONT 	Only a few stories of the War have survived in family lore: How Ruck and a handful of comrad
4 CONC es saved themselves hiding in the corn shocks while Morgan's cavalrymen passed so close by th
4 CONC ey could have reached out and patted their horses; how they slept on bar ground and often awo
4 CONC ke to find their hair frozen to the mud; how they cheated starvation by living on kernels o
4 CONC f corn picked out of horse manure.
4 CONT 	Ruck was born on June 7, August 4 or August 7, 1842, in the Manton section of Washington Cou
4 CONC nty.  IN 1873, he married Josepha Alemany "Josie" Blandford, the seventh child of Thomas R. a
4 CONC nd Susan Caroline (Tennelly) Blandford.
4 CONT 	The record tells only that Josie was born on Jan.13, 1850, bore 10 children and died in 1916
4 CONC , of tuberculosis.  Of the record, she is said to have been worm, wise, generous and resource
4 CONC ful.  Her name evokes reverence in the family even today, 75 years after her death.
4 CONT 	(Ruck's brother Nat married Frances Blandford, Josie's sister.  By the time of the 1870 Cens
4 CONC us, their older brother Bill had married a woman identified only as "Sary" and had fathered t
4 CONC wo daughters.  The record is silent on the others.)
4 CONT 	Ruck prospered as a blacksmith, mule breeder and land trader in the years after the Civil Wa
4 CONC r.  When he died, at age 90, he left each of his surviving three sons and six daughters a pri
4 CONC ncely sum - almost $10,000.
4 CONT 	One of his sons, Francis Xavier ("Zave") Filiatreau, had borrowed against and spent the bul
4 CONC k of his inheritance - about $7,000 of it - by the time of his father's death.  He wasted lit
4 CONC tle time squandering the rest on a resort hotel in New Hope, whose future as a tourist trap h
4 CONC e had overestimated (to the unending displeasure of his humorless wife, the former Ida Mae Co
4 CONC tton).  Eventually Zave moved his family to Louisville.
4 CONT 	Ruck's oldest son, Joseph Maurice, stayed at home, farming the family land on the banks of t
4 CONC he Beech Fork River not far from the Burg.  "Maurice" and his wife, the former Fannie Logsdon
4 CONC , lived in a hilltop home that burned down after a gas explosion two decades ago.  Their gran
4 CONC dchildren farm the land today.
4 CONT 	The third son, Raymond Nazarre, trained as a podiatrist, served in the Army Medical Corps du
4 CONC ring World War I and eventually resettled in Elwood Ind.
4 CONT 	Two daughters joined the Dominican religious order.  Presumably Ida Etta was happy to be ren
4 CONC amed Laurentia, while Caroline Belinda ("Caralinda") may have been less happy to become Rose
4 CONC , since she had a sister named Rose.
4 CONT 	The other sister (not Sister) Rose (actually Rosaline) married Lee Willett and lived in an
4 CONC d around the Burg (Fredericktown).  Nancy Malinda ("Aunt Nancy"), blinded in her youth by a m
4 CONC edication used to treat an eye infection, never married; she used her inheritance to live i
4 CONC n relative independence in various Catholic institutions.  Mary Joseph ("Mary Jo") married Be
4 CONC nedict Clements of Lebanon.  A seventh sister died just three days after her birth, to agin
4 CONC g parents, in 1895; she was given a touching, powerful name: Josie Rucker.
4 CONT 	Ruck died on June 2, 1933, at a relative's home in Louisville. The Springfield Sun said he d
4 CONC ied of "complications following a foot infection, with which he was stricken in October of la
4 CONC st year."  IN its obituary, the Sun remembered Ruck, "one of this county's wealthiest and mos
4 CONC t successful farmers and stockmen, "as a man who never turned his back on a friend "in financ
4 CONC ial stress or other need."
4 CONT 	He was buried with full military honors in St. Rose Cemetery, next to his good wife.

4 CONT Dear Ray
4 CONT Yours of the 5th received glad to hear from you and you seemed to be satisfied.  You wanted t
4 CONC o know what part of the line our regiment was in. I belonged to the 10th Ky inf 14th army cor
4 CONC ps comanded by Gen G. H. Thomas. We always called him Pap (Pop?) Thomas. I remember Rossvill
4 CONC e and Ringold.  We camped at Ringold a few days after the Battle at James borough below Atlan
4 CONC ta. Our term of service had expired was sent back to Ringold to guard the place. Whilst ther
4 CONC e it was reported we was ordered to pack and we marched to Chatanooga that night and marche
4 CONC d back the next morning.  So it was a false report.  I don't know who comanded our Division a
4 CONC t that time. Our Brigade was composed of the following regiments: the 10th Ind the 74th Ind 1
4 CONC 4 Ohio & 4th Ky & the 10th Ky.  I dont recolect the names of the fields and woods we fought o
4 CONC ver but I know we were first going forward and then back for the two days.  I know we layed a
4 CONC t the chick(?) Springs the night after the first days battle and the next night fell back t
4 CONC o Chattanoga and staid there for about 2 mo and liked to have starved. The enymy had our gru
4 CONC b line cut off.  Sherman came to our asisstance and we marched out up mission Ridge & Lookou
4 CONC t Mountain and cleaned the [Reb?] off and after that we got plinty of grub.  The ballance o
4 CONC f the war Sherman took comand of the army and kept everything going and coming.  I guess thi
4 CONC s will give you some idea of where we was.  You never said anything about Veave in your lette
4 CONC r.  What has become of her & the children.  I have never heard a word from them nor you sinc
4 CONC e I left.  Let me know when your payment is due on your farm.  I will be able to meet it an

1 NOTE Mary Filiatreau said that Zave was a funny man.  He loved to play pranks.  He was a guard a
2 CONC t a distillery.
2 CONT Mary had to stay with Zave and Ida after Ida fell and broke her hip. This was an experience t
2 CONC hat would try the patience of Zave and Mary.  Ida was very demanding.  Mary got very little t
2 CONC o eat because Ida always had to know what she was doing.
2 CONT During that time, Zave was in charge of cooking.  He would cook a ham on Sunday, and they wou
2 CONC ld eat that ham during the week until it was just about gone.  Then they would eat ham salad
2 CONC .  Mary got really sick of ham during that time.
2 CONT 
2 CONT For years, Zave had a dirty joke that he wanted to tell to Libby Clark. Every time he starte
2 CONC d to tell her, Ida would yell at him, and he would shut up.  When Ida died, Zave told his dir
2 CONC ty joke to Libby Clark at the funeral home.  Libby told Mary Filiatreau that the joke was REA
2 CONC LLY dirty! Neither Zave nor Libby told the joke to Mary. It was probably too dirty for her.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Joseph Maurice Filiatreau didn't speak very enthusiastically about Zave.  He said that Zave w
2 CONC as a good worker until he got to be about 18 years old, then he slowed down.  He moved to Lou
2 CONC isville and never did any good there. He may have reflected some disappointment Rucker may ha
2 CONC ve had with Zave.  In the first codicil to Rucker's will, he changed the executor from Raymon
2 CONC d, Zave and Maurice Filiatreau to just Maurice alone. The reason is not stated.

3 CONT 
3 CONT Hi, 
3 CONT My name is Joan Filiatreau, my husband is David Filiatreau.  His father was Dr. Conroy Filiat
3 CONC reau DPM, son of  Dr. Raymond N. Filiatreau MD. As you know Raymond was the son of Rucker. 
3 CONT 
3 CONT My husband and I have  enjoyed reading your genealogy.  He has tried for years to trace the f
3 CONC amily beyond Canada with no luck.  I  want to let you know that your genealogy says that Raym
3 CONC ond was a podiatrist, actually, Raymond was an MD, a general practitioner, who practiced medi
3 CONC cine in Ind.and my father-in-law Conroy was the podiatrist.  We enjoyed the letter that you p
3 CONC rinted from Raymond to Rucker regarding the Civil War, how did you come upon the letter and d
3 CONC o you have any other letters from Raymond?   
3 CONT 
3 CONT My mother-in-law has a terrific memory for someone who is 90 and remembers Srs. Rose and Laur
3 CONC entia very well and also has some stories about them.  One my husband remembers was when he a
3 CONC nd his parents went to Ark. for his uncle's ordination. (This is Edward Filiatreau, another o
3 CONC f Raymond's son's who is a Benedictine Monk.)  My husband was about 8 or 9 yrs old and playe
3 CONC d the violin.  He was asked to bring it along to give a "concert" to the 40 or so Filiatreau
3 CONC s attending the ordination.  He was playing a lively tune when Sr. Laurentia, in the back o
3 CONC f the room, began to dance around, and my husband started to laugh so hard he had to stop pla
3 CONC ying. 
3 CONT 
3 CONT We have a very nice 4x6 hard board photo of Raymond, Rucker and Nazarre.  It has no date bu
3 CONC t we are guessing it was taken shortly before Nazaire's death, we think.  The interesting thi
3 CONC ng is that the photographers name on the back of the photo says, H. Archambautt 2204 Rue Notr
3 CONC e-Dame Montreal.  We know Nazarre died in KY but he obviously was in Canada sometime in his l
3 CONC ater years.  My in-laws received the photo from Fannie Bell Filiatreau.  If you would lik
3 CONC e a copy of the photo let me know your address and I will forward one to you. 
3 CONT 
3 CONT Our grandson is named Frank Rucker Filiatreau, he is 11yrs old, so the name lives on. 
3 CONT 
3 CONT Thanks again for the wonderful genealogy search you have done. If we can help you let us know

3 TEXT The Filiatreau Family-Written by John D. Filiatreau
4 CONT 
4 CONT Legend has it that Isaac Nazarre Filiatreau, the first of his surname to settle in Washingto
4 CONC n County, had been "stolen" as a child and packed off to Kentucky from Quebec.  This romanti
4 CONC c tale has not been substantiated, but the little that is known about "Nazarre" (or Nazaire
4 CONC " or Nazarie") suggests that it is plausible.  He told census officials he was born in Canad
4 CONC a on March 20, 1809.  He told his children that their forebears had crossed the water from Al
4 CONC sace, France.  His 1840 marriage, in Washington County, apparently was the first occasion t
4 CONC o warrant the recording of his name.
4 CONT 	Nazarre married Belinda Hayes (Brent), the daughter of John and Dina Hayes; she was 28 year
4 CONC s old and had a son, John Brent, b y a previous (1830) marriage to John G. Brent.  She and Na
4 CONC zarre had seven children: William Thomas, born in 1841, Columbus Rucker (1842), Robert Peyto
4 CONC n (1844), Anna Jane (1846), Isabel (1848), Nazariah Augustine ("Nat") (1849) and James Frankl
4 CONC in Pierce (1853-the year Franklin Pierce became the nation's 14th president, presumably wit
4 CONC h Nazarre's backing).
4 CONT 	Some records refer to Nazarre's wife as "Malinda".  Curiously, both names-Belinda and Malind
4 CONC a-reappear among the names given to the children of Columbus Rucker Filiatreau.
4 CONT 	Nazarre died on Dec. 30, 1898, at age 90, and was buried in St. Rose Cemetery.	
4 CONT 	Two of his sons, Columbus Rucker ("Ruck") and William Thomas ("Bill"), joined the Union Arm
4 CONC y together in 1861.  Bill was soon discharged because of illness, but Ruck saw action in a ho
4 CONC st of civil War battles.
4 CONT 	Early in the war, his Company K of the Tenth Kentucky Volunteer Infantry chased John Hunt Mo
4 CONC rgan away from the L&N Railroad.  During its three-year existence, the Tenth Volunteers saw a
4 CONC ction at Mission Ridge, Jonesboro, Corinth, Rolling Fork, Hoover's Gap, Fairfield, Tullahoma
4 CONC , Compton's Creek, Rocky Face Ridge, Resaca, Chattahoochie River, Vining's Station, Pickett'
4 CONC s Mills, Courtland, Perryville, Lookout Mountain, Bunker Hill, Mills Spring, Little Gettysbur
4 CONC g, and Chickamauga; some units marched across Georgia with Gen. William Sherman.  Of the 99 m
4 CONC en who joined Company K with the Filiatreau brothers, seven were killed in action and nine ot
4 CONC hers died while in uniform.
4 CONT 	Ruck, a battlefield nurse who drove a horse-drawn ambulance, was shot in the heel at Perryvi
4 CONC lle.  He won several decorations and was discharged as a vice corporal in 1864.
4 CONT 	Ironically, when he died nearly 70 years later, the cause of death was a foot infection.  I
4 CONC f it had to do with his old heel wound (one source has it that the fatal infection started i
4 CONC n a toe), he may have been the last casualty of the Civil War.
4 CONT 	Only a few stories of the War have survived in family lore: How Ruck and a handful of comrad
4 CONC es saved themselves hiding in the corn shocks while Morgan's cavalrymen passed so close by th
4 CONC ey could have reached out and patted their horses; how they slept on bar ground and often awo
4 CONC ke to find their hair frozen to the mud; how they cheated starvation by living on kernels o
4 CONC f corn picked out of horse manure.
4 CONT 	Ruck was born on June 7, August 4 or August 7, 1842, in the Manton section of Washington Cou
4 CONC nty.  IN 1873, he married Josepha Alemany "Josie" Blandford, the seventh child of Thomas R. a
4 CONC nd Susan Caroline (Tennelly) Blandford.
4 CONT 	The record tells only that Josie was born on Jan.13, 1850, bore 10 children and died in 1916
4 CONC , of tuberculosis.  Of the record, she is said to have been warm, wise, generous and resource
4 CONC ful.  Her name evokes reverence in the family even today, 75 years after her death.
4 CONT 	(Ruck's brother Nat married Frances Blandford, Josie's sister.  By the time of the 1870 Cens
4 CONC us, their older brother Bill had married a woman identified only as "Sary" and had fathered t
4 CONC wo daughters.  The record is silent on the others.)
4 CONT 	Ruck prospered as a blacksmith, mule breeder and land trader in the years after the Civil Wa
4 CONC r.  When he died, at age 90, he left each of his surviving three sons and six daughters a pri
4 CONC ncely sum - almost $10,000.
4 CONT 	One of his sons, Francis Xavier ("Zave") Filiatreau, had borrowed against and spent the bul
4 CONC k of his inheritance - about $7,000 of it - by the time of his father's death.  He wasted lit
4 CONC tle time squandering the rest on a resort hotel in New Hope, whose future as a tourist trap h
4 CONC e had overestimated (to the unending displeasure of his humorless wife, the former Ida Mae Co
4 CONC tton).  Eventually Zave moved his family to Louisville.
4 CONT 	Ruck's oldest son, Joseph Maurice, stayed at home, farming the family land on the banks of t
4 CONC he Beech Fork River not far from the Burg.  "Maurice" and his wife, the former Fannie Logsdon
4 CONC , lived in a hilltop home that burned down after a gas explosion two decades ago.  Their gran
4 CONC dchildren farm the land today.
4 CONT 	The third son, Raymond Nazarre, trained as a podiatrist, served in the Army Medical Corps du
4 CONC ring World War I and eventually resettled in Elwood Ind.
4 CONT 	Two daughters joined the Dominican religious order.  Presumably Ida Etta was happy to be ren
4 CONC amed Laurentia, while Caroline Belinda ("Caralinda") may have been less happy to become Rose
4 CONC , since she had a sister named Rose.
4 CONT 	The other sister (not Sister) Rose (actually Rosaline) married Lee Willett and lived in an
4 CONC d around the Burg (Fredericktown).  Nancy Malinda ("Aunt Nancy"), married farmer Thomas Wheat
4 CONC ley and raised a brood on their farm near Loretto.  Fannie Belle, ("Aunt Fan") blinded in he
4 CONC r youth by a medication used to treat an eye infection, never married; she used her inheritan
4 CONC ce to live in relative independence in various Catholic institutions.  Mary Joseph ("Mary Jo"
4 CONC ) married Benedict Clements of Lebanon.  A seventh sister died just three days after her birt
4 CONC h, to aging parents, in 1895; she was given a touching, powerful name: Josie Rucker.
4 CONT 	Ruck died on June 2, 1933, at a relative's home in Louisville. The Springfield Sun said he d
4 CONC ied of "complications following a foot infection, with which he was stricken in October of la
4 CONC st year."  IN its obituary, the Sun remembered Ruck, "one of this county's wealthiest and mos
4 CONC t successful farmers and stockmen, "as a man who never turned his back on a friend "in financ
4 CONC ial stress or other need."
4 CONT 	He was buried with full military honors in St. Rose Cemetery, next to his good wife.

3 CONT 
3 CONT 
3 CONT Hi, 
3 CONT My name is Joan Filiatreau, my husband is David Filiatreau.  His father was Dr. Conroy Filiat
3 CONC reau DPM, son of  Dr. Raymond N. Filiatreau MD. As you know Raymond was the son of Rucker. 
3 CONT 
3 CONT My husband and I have  enjoyed reading your genealogy.  He has tried for years to trace the f
3 CONC amily beyond Canada with no luck.  I  want to let you know that your genealogy says that Raym
3 CONC ond was a podiatrist, actually, Raymond was an MD, a general practitioner, who practiced medi
3 CONC cine in Ind.and my father-in-law Conroy was the podiatrist.  We enjoyed the letter that you p
3 CONC rinted from Raymond to Rucker regarding the Civil War, how did you come upon the letter and d
3 CONC o you have any other letters from Raymond?   
3 CONT 
3 CONT My mother-in-law has a terrific memory for someone who is 90 and remembers Srs. Rose and Laur
3 CONC entia very well and also has some stories about them.  One my husband remembers was when he a
3 CONC nd his parents went to Ark. for his uncle's ordination. (This is Edward Filiatreau, another o
3 CONC f Raymond's son's who is a Benedictine Monk.)  My husband was about 8 or 9 yrs old and playe
3 CONC d the violin.  He was asked to bring it along to give a "concert" to the 40 or so Filiatreau
3 CONC s attending the ordination.  He was playing a lively tune when Sr. Laurentia, in the back o
3 CONC f the room, began to dance around, and my husband started to laugh so hard he had to stop pla
3 CONC ying. 
3 CONT 
3 CONT We have a very nice 4x6 hard board photo of Raymond, Rucker and Nazarre.  It has no date bu
3 CONC t we are guessing it was taken shortly before Nazaire's death, we think.  The interesting thi
3 CONC ng is that the photographers name on the back of the photo says, H. Archambautt 2204 Rue Notr
3 CONC e-Dame Montreal.  We know Nazarre died in KY but he obviously was in Canada sometime in his l
3 CONC ater years.  My in-laws received the photo from Fannie Bell Filiatreau.  If you would lik
3 CONC e a copy of the photo let me know your address and I will forward one to you. 
3 CONT 
3 CONT Our grandson is named Frank Rucker Filiatreau, he is 11yrs old, so the name lives on. 
3 CONT 
3 CONT Thanks again for the wonderful genealogy search you have done. If we can help you let us know
3 CONC .

1 TEXT The Filiatreau Family-Written by John D. Filiatreau
2 CONT 
2 CONT Legend has it that Isaac Nazarre Filiatreau, the first of his surname to settle in Washingto
2 CONC n County, had been "stolen" as a child and packed off to Kentucky from Quebec.  This romanti
2 CONC c tale has not been substantiated, but the little that is known about "Nazarre" (or Nazaire
2 CONC " or Nazarie") suggests that it is plausible.  He told census officials he was born in Canad
2 CONC a on March 20, 1809.  He told his children that their forebears had crossed the water from Al
2 CONC sace, France.  His 1840 marriage, in Washington County, apparently was the first occasion t
2 CONC o warrant the recording of his name.
2 CONT 	Nazarre married Belinda Hayes (Brent), the daughter of John and Dina Hayes; she was 28 year
2 CONC s old and had a son, John Brent, b y a previous (1830) marriage to John G. Brent.  She and Na
2 CONC zarre had seven children: William Thomas, born in 1841, Columbus Rucker (1842), Robert Peyto
2 CONC n (1844), Anna Jane (1846), Isabel (1848), Nazariah Augustine ("Nat") (1849) and James Frankl
2 CONC in Pierce (1853-the year Franklin Pierce became the nation's 14th president, presumably wit
2 CONC h Nazarre's backing).
2 CONT 	Some records refer to Nazarre's wife as "Malinda".  Curiously, both names-Belinda and Malind
2 CONC a-reappear among the names given to the children of Columbus Rucker Filiatreau.
2 CONT 	Nazarre died on Dec. 30, 1898, at age 90, and was buried in St. Rose Cemetery.	
2 CONT 	Two of his sons, Columbus Rucker ("Ruck") and William Thomas ("Bill"), joined the Union Arm
2 CONC y together in 1861.  Bill was soon discharged because of illness, but Ruck saw action in a ho
2 CONC st of civil War battles.
2 CONT 	Early in the war, his Company K of the Tenth Kentucky Volunteer Infantry chased John Hunt Mo
2 CONC rgan away from the L&N Railroad.  During its three-year existence, the Tenth Volunteers saw a
2 CONC ction at Mission Ridge, Jonesboro, Corinth, Rolling Fork, Hoover's Gap, Fairfield, Tullahoma
2 CONC , Compton's Creek, Rocky Face Ridge, Resaca, Chattahoochie River, Vining's Station, Pickett'
2 CONC s Mills, Courtland, Perryville, Lookout Mountain, Bunker Hill, Mills Spring, Little Gettysbur
2 CONC g, and Chickamauga; some units marched across Georgia with Gen. William Sherman.  Of the 99 m
2 CONC en who joined Company K with the Filiatreau brothers, seven were killed in action and nine ot
2 CONC hers died while in uniform.
2 CONT 	Ruck, a battlefield nurse who drove a horse-drawn ambulance, was shot in the heel at Perryvi
2 CONC lle.  He won several decorations and was discharged as a vice corporal in 1864.
2 CONT 	Ironically, when he died nearly 70 years later, the cause of death was a foot infection.  I
2 CONC f it had to do with his old heel wound (one source has it that the fatal infection started i
2 CONC n a toe), he may have been the last casualty of the Civil War.
2 CONT 	Only a few stories of the War have survived in family lore: How Ruck and a handful of comrad
2 CONC es saved themselves hiding in the corn shocks while Morgan's cavalrymen passed so close by th
2 CONC ey could have reached out and patted their horses; how they slept on bar ground and often awo
2 CONC ke to find their hair frozen to the mud; how they cheated starvation by living on kernels o
2 CONC f corn picked out of horse manure.
2 CONT 	Ruck was born on June 7, August 4 or August 7, 1842, in the Manton section of Washington Cou
2 CONC nty.  IN 1873, he married Josepha Alemany "Josie" Blandford, the seventh child of Thomas R. a
2 CONC nd Susan Caroline (Tennelly) Blandford.
2 CONT 	The record tells only that Josie was born on Jan.13, 1850, bore 10 children and died in 1916
2 CONC , of tuberculosis.  Of the record, she is said to have been worm, wise, generous and resource
2 CONC ful.  Her name evokes reverence in the family even today, 75 years after her death.
2 CONT 	(Ruck's brother Nat married Frances Blandford, Josie's sister.  By the time of the 1870 Cens
2 CONC us, their older brother Bill had married a woman identified only as "Sary" and had fathered t
2 CONC wo daughters.  The record is silent on the others.)
2 CONT 	Ruck prospered as a blacksmith, mule breeder and land trader in the years after the Civil Wa
2 CONC r.  When he died, at age 90, he left each of his surviving three sons and six daughters a pri
2 CONC ncely sum - almost $10,000.
2 CONT 	One of his sons, Francis Xavier ("Zave") Filiatreau, had borrowed against and spent the bul
2 CONC k of his inheritance - about $7,000 of it - by the time of his father's death.  He wasted lit
2 CONC tle time squandering the rest on a resort hotel in New Hope, whose future as a tourist trap h
2 CONC e had overestimated (to the unending displeasure of his humorless wife, the former Ida Mae Co
2 CONC tton).  Eventually Zave moved his family to Louisville.
2 CONT 	Ruck's oldest son, Joseph Maurice, stayed at home, farming the family land on the banks of t
2 CONC he Beech Fork River not far from the Burg.  "Maurice" and his wife, the former Fannie Logsdon
2 CONC , lived in a hilltop home that burned down after a gas explosion two decades ago.  Their gran
2 CONC dchildren farm the land today.
2 CONT 	The third son, Raymond Nazarre, trained as a podiatrist, served in the Army Medical Corps du
2 CONC ring World War I and eventually resettled in Elwood Ind.
2 CONT 	Two daughters joined the Dominican religious order.  Presumably Ida Etta was happy to be ren
2 CONC amed Laurentia, while Caroline Belinda ("Caralinda") may have been less happy to become Rose
2 CONC , since she had a sister named Rose.
2 CONT 	The other sister (not Sister) Rose (actually Rosaline) married Lee Willett and lived in an
2 CONC d around the Burg (Fredericktown).  Nancy Malinda ("Aunt Nancy"), blinded in her youth by a m
2 CONC edication used to treat an eye infection, never married; she used her inheritance to live i
2 CONC n relative independence in various Catholic institutions.  Mary Joseph ("Mary Jo") married Be
2 CONC nedict Clements of Lebanon.  A seventh sister died just three days after her birth, to agin
2 CONC g parents, in 1895; she was given a touching, powerful name: Josie Rucker.
2 CONT 	Ruck died on June 2, 1933, at a relative's home in Louisville. The Springfield Sun said he d
2 CONC ied of "complications following a foot infection, with which he was stricken in October of la
2 CONC st year."  IN its obituary, the Sun remembered Ruck, "one of this county's wealthiest and mos
2 CONC t successful farmers and stockmen, "as a man who never turned his back on a friend "in financ
2 CONC ial stress or other need."
2 CONT 	He was buried with full military honors in St. Rose Cemetery, next to his good wife.

2 CONT HANNAH, J.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 	In September, 1911, R.O. (Dick) Filiatreau, who lived on a farm lying partly in Washington a
2 CONC nd partly in Marion County, accomplished the ruin of Elizabeth Corbett, a young girl, the sis
2 CONC ter of his wife.  In January, 1912, he procured for her certain medicine for the purpose of p
2 CONC roducing an abortion, but it failed to have the desired effect.  In June, 1912, she delivere
2 CONC d of a child.  In August 1912, a bastardy proceeding was instituted against Filiatreau in th
2 CONC e Marion county court, which resulted in a judgment against him of $75 and the costs, payabl
2 CONC e immediately, and $75 payable semiannually thereafter during the minority of the child.  A w
2 CONC rit of fieri facias having been returned nulla bona, this proceeding in equity was institute
2 CONC d in the Marion circuit court to enforce the satisfaction of the judgment.
2 CONT 	William Filiatreau, father of dick Filiatreau, was made a party defendant; it being charge
2 CONC d in the petition that Dick Filiatreau had fraudulently transferred to his father certain liv
2 CONC e stock, worth $700, for the purpose of defeating his liability under the judgment above ment
2 CONC ioned.  Dick Filiatreau answered, but failed to deny the charge of fraudulent transfer; his o
2 CONC nly plea being that he had on December 21, 1912, filed a petition in bankruptcy in the Unite
2 CONC d States Circuit Court of the Western District of Kentucky, and was therein adjudicated bankr
2 CONC upt; that the judgment sought to be enforced was proven in that proceeding as a claim agains
2 CONC t the estate in bankruptcy.  He was present at the taking of the depositions, but he did no
2 CONC t testify.
2 CONT 	This appeal is prosecuted only as against William Filiatreau; the court, upon submission o
2 CONC f the cause, having adjudged that so much of the petition as sought a recovery against him sh
2 CONC ould be dismissed.
2 CONT 
2 CONT 	It appears from the testimony that in the spring of `1912, and after he had learned that th
2 CONC e medicine he had procured had failed to produce the desired effect, Dick Filiatreau had on h
2 CONC is farm five mules, three jacks, and two jennets. He sold one of the mules to his uncle, C.R
2 CONC . Filiatreau, and the other to a man named Brent.  AT the time of the birth of the child to E
2 CONC lizabeth Corbett, he had on his farm three mules, three jacks, and two jennets.  Of the thre
2 CONC e mules, he still has one.  The other two were thereafter taken to the farm of his father, Wi
2 CONC lliam Filiatreau, and William Filiatreau sold them to his brother, C.R. Filiatreau, for $260.
2 CONT 	William Filiatreau testified that these two mules were purchased by Dick Filiatreau when the
2 CONC y were weanlings, but that he furnished the money to pay for them.  They were past three year
2 CONC s old, and had been reared by Dick Filiatreau; the father never having had either of them i
2 CONC n possession, nor exercised any act of ownership over them.  The only explanation offered b
2 CONC y William Filiatreau as to why his son should have kept these mules so long, and then turne
2 CONC d them over to him just in time to evade the collection of the judgment here sought to be enf
2 CONC orced, is that these mules were smaller than other mules owned by him of the same age, and fo
2 CONC r that reason he wanted to keep them separate.  This explanation is not satisfactory, nor i
2 CONC s the testimony clear as to the exact nature of the arrangement under which William Filiatrea
2 CONC u claimed to be the owner of these mules.  The proof is decidedly insufficient to show that t
2 CONC hey were in fact his property.
2 CONT 	It appears from the evidence that these mules were not worth more than the price for which t
2 CONC hey were sold, and William Filiatreau must account for the $260 which he received for them.
2 CONT 	As to the three jacks and two jennets, it appears from the evidence that, after the birth o
2 CONC f the child to Elizabeth Corbett, William Filiatreau gave his son, Dick, a check for $200; an
2 CONC d it is claimed by William Filiatreau that he and his son, Dick, owned the three jacks and tw
2 CONC o jennets jointly, and that this check was given by him as the purchase price of his son's in
2 CONC terest.  He says that Dick came to his house and stated that he was owing Henry Corbett a deb
2 CONC t of $200 and that he wanted to sell the "jennets, " in order to get the money to pay Corbett
2 CONC .  "He said Henry was bound to have it, and wanted to know if I would take the jennets and gi
2 CONC ve him the money." And, without seeing them, William Filiatreau gave him the check "for his i
2 CONC nterest in the stock."  The jennets were taken to the father.  Two of the jacks are yet remai
2 CONC ning at Dick's.
2 CONT 	These animals had been reared by Dick Filiatreau, being the progeny of a jennet which his fa
2 CONC ther had once given him, and how it was that William Filiatreau came to have an interest in t
2 CONC hem amounting to the whole of their value except $200 is left to conjecture.  One of these ja
2 CONC cks appeared to have died prior to the institution of this suit, and the record does not clea
2 CONC rly establish the value of the two remaining jacks and the two jennets; but the value of thes
2 CONC e two jacks and two jennets should be ascertained, and William Filiatreau must either accoun
2 CONC t therefor, or surrender the animals for sale herein, in satisfaction of the judgment sough
2 CONC t to be enforced.
2 CONT 	It appears from the evidence, however, though not very clearly, that the $200, which Willia
2 CONC m Filiatreau claims to have paid his son for this property, was applied to the satisfaction o
2 CONC f a claim which the son owed, and we think William Filiatreau should be credited with this am
2 CONC ount out of the proceeds of, or as a credit against, the value of the animals-the two jacks a
2 CONC nd two jennets.
2 CONT 	It is a wise and ancient rule that fraud is not to be presumed; that a presumption of innoce
2 CONC nce, and of good faith, and of fair dealing attends upon all the lawful transactions of all m
2 CONC en; and that upon him who asserts a charge of fraud is cast the burden of sustaining his accu
2 CONC sation.  But, while fraud is not to be presumed, it is not required of him who charges it tha
2 CONC t he should enter into the secret councils of the perpetrators thereof and wrest therefrom th
2 CONC e direct evidence of their wrongdoing.  Fraud may be inferred; circumstances may be shown o
2 CONC f such character as to create inferences making peremptory demand for explanation.
2 CONT 	In this case, the challenged transactions were had about the time of, or very shortly after
2 CONC , the birth of the child to Elizabeth Corbett and between Dick Filiatreau and William Filiatr
2 CONC eau, his father, who lived within 2 ư miles from each other.  In the short space of a few day
2 CONC s, the mules, jacks, and jennets which had been wont to disport themselves over the grassy sw
2 CONC ards of Dick Filiatreau's farm had ceased to be his.  William Filiatreau, his father, becam
2 CONC e their pretended owner.  And these same mules, jacks, and jennets constituted practically al
2 CONC l the property of which R.O. Filiatreau had been possessed which could be subjected to his de
2 CONC bts; his farm being incumbered with liens amounting to a large percentage of its value.  Suc
2 CONC h things as these occurring inter familia at such a time and under such circumstances as her
2 CONC e shown, call for more satisfactory explanations, for more candid testimony by the principals
2 CONC , and for a greater elaboration of the details of the transactions had between father and so
2 CONC n than was exhibited in this case.
2 CONT 	The maxim, "He who comes into equity must come with clean hands, " imposes itself alike upo
2 CONC n him who defends and upon him who prosecutes a suit in equity; and its requirements are no
2 CONC t satisfied by a fulfillment of the literal language of its demand.  Be his hands spotless a
2 CONC s they may, he does not merit the protection of the chancellor who fails to make a full and f
2 CONC ree disclosure of all the fact relating to his claim.  The maxim is broad enough to demand th
2 CONC at he who prays from the chancellor protection, as well as he who seeks affirmative aid, mus
2 CONC t openly and frankly, without reservation or evasion, yield to the chancellor that full measu
2 CONC re of confidence and truth which is prerequisite to the assertion and exercise of chancery po
2 CONC wers, and the lack of which must necessarily repel him from a forum whose very foundation i
2 CONC s mutual confidence and good faith.
2 CONT 
2 CONT The judgment is reversed.

1 NOTE Provided for me by Sister Sharon A. Breden.  Author mistakenly identifies Columbus Rucker Fil
2 CONC iatreau as "Charles".  This was apparently written while Columbus Rucker 
2 CONT Filiatreau was still alive, by his granddaughter Toni.
1 TEXT My great grandfather Filiatreau was born in Montreal Canada.  He was the grand-son of a Frenc
2 CONC h Soldier who came over to this Continent to fight in the French and Indian War.  After the W
2 CONC ar he settled in Canada.  Now I must get back to the person I started to tellyou about, Nazai
2 CONC re Filiatreau, my great-grand-father.  In early manhood he was a gun-smith.  He migrated to t
2 CONC he United States and traveled through New Orleans, St. Louis and finally settled in Kentucky
2 CONC .  He married a native girl of Kentucky, Miss Hays.  To this couple was born eight children
2 CONC , of whom Charles Rucker was the second youngest.  He was born in 1843.  He was very helpfu
2 CONC l in his father's shop when he wasn't in school.  The school year at that time was very brief
2 CONC , lasting three months.  He studied the usual curriculum, reading, writing and arithmetic, "t
2 CONC ought to the tune of a hickory stick".  The students sat on benches made of split logs, lon
2 CONC g enough for three or four persons.  Their desks were likewise made of log.  The writing mate
2 CONC rial consisted of slate and pencils.  Charles lived two or three miles from the school and ha
2 CONC d to walk.  He left easrly in the morning, carried his lunch and arrived home in the evenin
2 CONC g in time for dinner.
2 CONT 
2 CONT One summer his father decided to take the family to Illinois in a covered wagon.  Winter se
2 CONC t in before they reached their destination.  The raods were muddy and hard to travel and th
2 CONC e weather was cold.  Some of the family became ill and the youngest boy died.  At that time t
2 CONC hey were in Vincennes, Indiana, the boy was buried there.  A warm spot lingers in the heart o
2 CONC f what is now an old man, at the mention of Vincennes.  When Illinois was reached, they remai
2 CONC ned there a few months, then returned to Kentucky.  The new state was not as satisfactory a
2 CONC s they thought it might be.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Within a few years the Civil War broke out.  Charles was nineteen years old and he entered th
2 CONC e army.  He was in service three years, in the Northern ranks.  It is very interesting to hea
2 CONC r him tell of his adventures.  Food was scarce and cloting scanty.  Many times when only a fe
2 CONC w moments could be spared, the men ate their ration of meat raw- relishing it immensely, espe
2 CONC cially if they were hungry.  At night a bed was built out of brush and broken limbs from tree
2 CONC s, with a blanket spread over this, if any blanket was available.  At one time when the arm
2 CONC y was near the capitol, Charles saw Lincoln.  He still speaks of the kind and benevolent fac
2 CONC e Lincoln had.  While he was away, things were4 not so peaceful at home.  Men of the south o
2 CONC r the enemy formed troops of their own and invaded homes, robbed and killed as they liked
2 CONC .  A troop of these men entered the home of Charles's folks and rode through the house on hor
2 CONC ses.  They were after one man of the family whom they thought knew a secret they wished to kn
2 CONC ow.  Everyone was so frightened they hid in every conceivable place.  The troop found one ma
2 CONC n and told himn if he did not tell where his comrade was, it meant his life.  A fight was imm
2 CONC ediately on hand, in which the man was fatally injured.  However, they never found their desi
2 CONC red hostage.  They did not feel that enough damage had been performed, so they burned the bar
2 CONC n, after taking all of the desired articles.
2 CONT 
2 CONT In a few years, the wasr was over and Charles was home again.  In a few years more he marrie
2 CONC d Josephine Blandford, a young lady of the same vicinity.  Josephine Blandford's mother and f
2 CONC ather came from Maryland. Now that Charles and Josephine were married a new branch of life wa
2 CONC s started.  Their first child, precious child to them and later to me, was a bouncing baby bo
2 CONC y, Ramond Nazaire.  HBe was named after his grandfather.  The bed on which RAymond was born h
2 CONC as an interesting history, as to births.  Raymong's mother and her father were all born on th
2 CONC is bed, in the same room and in this same house.  The house is located in WAshington County
2 CONC , near Bardstown, Kentucky.  Raymond's father still lives in thsi old, old house today and th
2 CONC at bed is still being used.  It is a big four poster bed made of walnut.  Following this chil
2 CONC d, respectively came two more boys and six girls, all of whom are living today.  At this tim
2 CONC e Charles was a poor farmer, struggling, saving and economizing to rear his children.  The fi
2 CONC rst boy raymond became a Medical Doctor.  He received his training at Louisville Medical Scho
2 CONC ol and later received his degree from Marion College, St. Louis, what is now St. Louis Univer
2 CONC sity.  Two fo the daughters are now teachers, one in Nebraska and the other one in West Virgi
2 CONC nia.  The others married and now live in Kentucky.
2 CONT 
2 CONT As a boy Raymond helped his father on the farm.  He often drove horses, or cattle to Bardstow
2 CONC n to market.  One night as he was riding home from Bardstown, in a fierce rain storm, his hor
2 CONC ses gave out.  He was near a home, so he stopped there to ask assistance.  They asked him t
2 CONC o remain all night and take one of their horses in the morning.  He did this. Even though the
2 CONC y were strangers to him it was safe for him to do this.  It is just a little proof that peopl
2 CONC e were honest and held confidence in a fellowman.  It seems that times have changed.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Toll gates were very common those days.  Raymond was going on an errand for his father and ha
2 CONC d to pass one of the toll gates.  He happened to have no money and the gatekeeper realizing t
2 CONC his began a conversation with the lad and among other things, asked him whose little boy he w
2 CONC as.  "I's pap's little boy, " he said and rode on.  Children have been able to do many thing
2 CONC s other people are ostracized for.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Raymond's grandfather was still living at this time.  When Raymond was fifteen years old he a
2 CONC nd his grandfather went to Canada.  Nazaire had not been back since he left about forty year
2 CONC s previous. This was quite an adventure for the boys, both young and old.  For traveling faci
2 CONC lities had changed.  Trains were in use.  They stopped at Niagara Falls.  Tehy went up the ri
2 CONC ver through the cascades, which no one should miss if they visit the falls.  In a few days th
2 CONC e city of Nazaire's childhood was reached.  The city had changed and he did not know how to f
2 CONC ind his friends.  After finding information he finally located the humble little home of hi
2 CONC s sistwer.  Knocking at the door he introduced himself.  She did not belive him adn said tha
2 CONC t Nazaire had been dead for years.  When he convinced her that she was mistaken they went i
2 CONC n and enjoyed a delicious French meal.  French was the only language spoken and Raymond did n
2 CONC ot know the tongue.  He heard them say what sounded like, "Why didn't you come before, "  H
2 CONC e asked his grandfather what that meant.  He replied, "Eat Plentifully."  They did without be
2 CONC ing told.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Let us turn our attention a few years later, after Raymond had received his degree in medicin
2 CONC e.  He returned home, but it was impossible for him to practice there.  Like a young fellow h
2 CONC e was very discouraged.  He had all of this educatiuon, now what was he going to do with it
2 CONC .  ONe thing certain he couldn't remain there.  His mother's brother, who was a doctor wante
2 CONC d him to come to Louisville with him.  This he did.
2 CONT 
2 CONT He heard of an offer in a country town called Knottsville, Kentucky in Davies County.  It see
2 CONC med promising to him so he settled there.  He had a little office and rode horse back throug
2 CONC h the country on his calls.  Since the doctor who had resided there for many years was very o
2 CONC ld, the youth received most all the practice.  Now a man can't live through all the hardship
2 CONC s of getting established without a little romance to spur him on.  A very sweet maiden name
2 CONC d Genevieve Clements lived in the town and they became acquainted. Her mother was propriatres
2 CONC s of a hotel and her father was manager of a General Mercantile Store.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Genevieve's mother, before marriage was a Montgomery.  Appolinia was her given name.  Miss Ap
2 CONC polinia Montgomery's mother was an Aud, Miss Clotilda Aud's mother was a Blandford, and Mis
2 CONC s Blandford's mother was a Cooms.  It might appear to my readers, that the family name Blandf
2 CONC ord, being in both the Clement's branch and the Filiatreau's, that there might be some relati
2 CONC onship.  It was traced and no kinship was found.  Zachery and Appolinia were brother ans sist
2 CONC er.  Appolinia was the youngest and Zachery was very fond of her. He was a very adventurous b
2 CONC oy and man.  During the Gold Rush in Califorina he and some other people of the vicinity, Ken
2 CONC tucky started out.  After many weeks of tedius traveling and combat with Indians they reache
2 CONC d California.  He setytled in the southern part of the state in San Diego.  He became a mos
2 CONC t eminent lawyer.  He was considered the most brilliant lawyer in California and the uglies
2 CONC t man in the state.  He held many public offices, among one of the most important was the off
2 CONC ice of Attorney General of the United States, during Cleveland's Administration.  About the s
2 CONC ame time, there was a very wealthy family who lived in St. Louis, a mother and her two daught
2 CONC ers.  One was named Ellen, the other name has been forgotten.  This family with other peopl
2 CONC e started out also for the Gold State.  Just before they left Ellen had made her debut in Soc
2 CONC iety.  One of themain things that she packed was her gorgeous evening frock. I don't know whe
2 CONC re she thought she could wear it out in the wilderness. They traveled like anyone else, by co
2 CONC vered wagons. Many horses, cattle and food supplies were taken, besides the private article
2 CONC s of each individual. The journey was lo9ng and tiresome, lasting nine months.  They travele
2 CONC d three or four days then rested two.  Many times they had to fight the Indians, from robbgin
2 CONC g or killing them. After what seemed a long time, they reached Salt Lake City.  An old Morma
2 CONC n woman became attached to Ellen and wanted her to stay and marry her son.  But Ellen refuse
2 CONC d and said they were leaving the next morning.  This old woman told Ellen if they were intend
2 CONC ing to go the southern route not to, for the Indians were waiting for travelers and they migh
2 CONC t be killed.  Ellen thanked her for the information and informed her mother.  She suggested t
2 CONC he plan to the troop.  Some of the men said they were going by the southern route, as they ha
2 CONC d planned. But the rest of these overland travelers went north.  The first crew were never he
2 CONC ard of after they parted.  They were probably killed by the Indians.  The people who wnet nor
2 CONC th were trudging along when before their eyes was a high wall of stone.  It was a mountain
2 CONC .  There was no possible way to go over, around or under it, but they must turn back.  Previo
2 CONC us to this they had come to a fork in the raod. Ellen's mother wanted to take one road  and t
2 CONC he men wanted to take the other.  The men won out and this is what it led up to. Their food s
2 CONC upply was almost exhausted, the ir horses were dying slowly one by one, and they were almos
2 CONC t hopeless.  The men sat down and cried.  Ellen's mother told them if they had followed her a
2 CONC dvice this would not have happened.  Now htey must retrace their steps miles and miles.  Perh
2 CONC aps then all their food would be gone. However this they did, rather than sit there and die
2 CONC .  Each member discarded some garment or article on their person in order to lighten their bu
2 CONC rden.  Ellen had only two garments left, what she had on and her silk evening dress.  She cou
2 CONC ld not decide which one to keep.  She put the evening dress on and paraded into the town Oakl
2 CONC and.  As time went on Oakland, California grew and became well populated.  Ellen's mother own
2 CONC ed nearly half of the land of the town and was one of the first settlers who really started t
2 CONC he town.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Zachery Montgomery met Ellen and as the story goes, he married her. They had a son John, wh
2 CONC o as a child was very fond of birds.  He liked to watch them fly.  One day he told his fathe
2 CONC r that someday people would fly just like those birds.  Of course his father laughed at him a
2 CONC s anyone would.  As he grew up he was very fond of Chemistry and science in general.  When h
2 CONC e was not busily engaged in his laboratory he was workijng on his aeroplane.  He secured a pa
2 CONC tent for his machine and went up in it for the first time as a test flight.  It flew.  Howeve
2 CONC r before going very far it crached.  John was unconscious and died in a short time.  His mech
2 CONC anic said he belived that John was so utterly overtaken with the fact that it really flew tha
2 CONC t he lost control of it and himself.  That evidently was the cause of the disaster.  His pate
2 CONC nt was stolen by the Wright Brothes and they are feted today as the original makers of the fi
2 CONC rst aeroplane. The defective business was carried on this way:  Both of the men were in confi
2 CONC dence with the sdame man, unknowingly however.  He gave the Wright Brothers the material fo
2 CONC r the makeup fo the machine.  Today the case is still in court. Whether it will ever be right
2 CONC ed is yet to bew seen.
2 CONT 
2 CONT All of this may sound like a fictitious story, but all of it is quite true.  It can be verifi
2 CONC ed by the fact that Zachery's sister Appolinia had a daughter, Lilly Mae, who visited Ellen t
2 CONC he mother of John, a few years ago. It was all told to her from their very lips.
2 CONT 
2 CONT I must tell you now about Appolinia. She married Charles Clements and ten children were sen
2 CONC t to them.  Two girls and one boy became a teacher.  One girl became a Podiatrist, a foot spe
2 CONC cialist, who lives in Indianapolis.  The others who are living are either married or single
2 CONC .  Tehre are only five now living.  Their parents are also deceased.  The youngest child Gene
2 CONC vieve, of course the nearest and dearest to them and later to me.
2 CONT 
2 CONT Now recalling the young doctor who was mentioned, was now a prospering physician of the town
2 CONC .  Having met Genevieve they were living at the height of their joy during the courtship of s
2 CONC ix years.  During this time, he went abroad- not with her but his sister.  It is most i9ntere
2 CONC sting to read the letters he wrote to Genevieve whiloe in the pleasant land of France.  Whe h
2 CONC e returned they married in the little town of Knottsville, Kentucky.  It was a very quiet wed
2 CONC ding.  They journeyed across the state to his home.  She had seen noe of his famly but his fa
2 CONC ther.  They were evidently well pleased with their new daughter-in-law. Tehy came back to Kno
2 CONC ttsville. While they were living there two children were born, a boy and a gir.
