Robinson's and John R  farms were located. If you will notice Nathan Miner's farm is a little NE of John R's farm, think Elizabeth visited her grandparents and John courted her?  On right Shelton farm. Sure looks that way to me. From Annie Hardy, 11-2001

     It took me a week to straighten most of this up as was original wrote using Q and A word program and in change over to word, it added many asci signs as these, And I had to go through and take all of them out, I hope, so not to sure of some spelling. I think I did this about 1993 and so far I can't find my original copy. Contains much good info and date. Some one ask what church did the Andrew's belong to, well it seems from these notes, Presbyterian. Info had to be from family bible and other notes.  clc

Holds one star waiting dimly for the moon. To weld its little shine into one cry Of ecstasy. So do I wait. Come soon! Against the dreamy sunset's crimson heart One tree lifts aching branches toward the sky To court approaching night -- to be a part Of its vast ebony. And so wait I wake alone. And in the wind wrapped dawn. I hear one bird cry lonely for her mate. She looks into the sky where he has gone. I know! For thus I cry -- and look -- and wait!

Andrew, Sr. I have a chance of sending a few lines to Gauley tomorrow and I will improve on the opportunity I have written to the folks at home and presume that you have heard ere this that our regiment has left Summerville, we have heard from it today. They say that it is on the way back to Gualy and will move from there to Tennessee and take possession of the Tennessee Railroad. If that is the case and I presume it is we will get with our Regt.. soon. I would rather be with the regiment, although we have easier times here. but I would rather see a little harder times than to stay here and see nothing. I will not have time to write much this evening but I will try and let you know that we are still here and praying to leave every day. but don't know when we will get off there is no mail from Gauley here and we have to send as we get a chance and we get no letters atoll. I don't look to hear from home anymore for sometime unless it is an accident. But tell them to write and do the same yourself and I may happen to get them by accident. I am well and able for almost any game that they can put me onto. I have broke the tab out of my Enfield and can't shoot till I get a new gun, but I guess I will get one in a day or two.� Blanket is well I believe for me and him went out and shot a hog the other day and skinned it and it eat right well. I thank you that is nothing we do such tricks frequently. It is now after Roll Call and I must close without telling you what you would like. I hear but I haven't time to do anymore. So Good Night to ye, write soon and I will do it every chance I get. Harvey Linscott to J R Harvey Linscott to J.R. Andrew Harvey Linscott 36th Regt. OVI in care of WHG A B C D Adney Mrs. M.A. Carley Dead Margaret Ann Daigh, daughter of John and Sarah Daigh, was born near Rochester, Sangamon county, Illinois, January 20, 1845; and died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Milton Rightmire near Wamego, April 26, 1925; aged 80 years, 3 months and 6 days. She moved, with her parents, to Wisconsin when a small child, and there she grew to womanhood. On February 18, 1864, she was united in marriage to Lieutenant Lot H. Carley at Fairplay, Wisconsin. Three children survive this union: �Mrs. Milton Rightmire of Wamego; C.L. Carley of Plainville; and Dr. Harry d. Carley of St. Louis, Missouri. Her husband died July 15, 1885, at Auburn, Nebraska. She and one brother G.L. Daigh, are the last of a family of eight children. When twenty-eight years of age, Sister Carley was converted and she joined the Methodist church. She has ever lived faithful and consistent Christian life, and at the time of her death, was one of the highly honored beloved and respected members of the M.E. church here in Wamego. Those of us that had the good fortune to know her in the days of her strength and activity, remember her as one of the most lovable and devoted Christian saints. We cannot speak too highly of her, or praise her good deeds too fervently. She was a woman of refined tastes and desires. She loved the best things in life. And above all, she loved her church and its ministry. She stayed here in town as long as she was able to care for herself in order that she might have the privilege of attending the services of the church. She made many friends of all who knew her, and has left deeply impressed upon our hearts the lessons of beautiful living and serving as enacted in her life. And throughout a long life of hardships and many privations, she fought a winning fight. She left a name untouched and untarnished by the things of the world. She had her habitation here, but her citizenship was in Heaven. She did kindly deeds here, but never with the thought of praise or reward of mankind. IT was for the sake of Him whose disciple she was, and in his name that she did her kindly deeds. She believed the words of Him who said, "Whosoever giveth a cup of cold water in my name shall have his reward." How comforting it must be to her loved ones and to all of us who knew her, to think how Heaven must have waited with outstretched arms to receiver her immortal spirit while her Lord and Savior said to her; "Well done thou good and faithful servant; enter thou into the joy of the Lord." We will miss her, but our loss is Heaven's gain. Therefore, let our hearts be comforted. Besides the children and brother as mentioned above, she leaves seven grandchildren and one great grandchild, other relatives and a host of friends to mourn her departure. Funeral services were held at the M.E. church in Wamego, Tuesday afternoon, at two-thirty o'clock, conducted by her pastor, the Rev. L. B. Pruitt, and the body was shipped to Auburn, Nebraska, and laid to rest in the family lot in the cemetery.

     Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the bar, When I put out to sea. Twilight and evening bell, And after that the dark! And may there be no sadness of farewell, When I embark! For, though from out our balance of time & place The flood may bear me far, I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar.

Following my graduation in 1949 from WHS, I took my diploma and skills and went to Kansas State to work. In 1950, I married Earle Popejoy. Over the next few years, we had three sons, David, Douglas and Dana. The two younger boys were born in Germany where we were attached to the Army for over five years. The marriage ended in 1978.

In 1983 I returned to Kansas to care for my elderly parents. As a diversion, I attended Kansas State and in 1989 received a Bachelor in Social Work degree. My caretaker role ended in 1988 and 89, and I worked for the State of Kansas in Children & Family Services until my retirement in 1996.
                                                             Chapter 3
Because of several years of experience as a Singer store manager and salesman, I took a part-time job with the local store. The owner was a neat ole guy, divorced, retired once, and about my age. We were married in 1997 and I became Mrs. Lester Smith. We have lived happily ever after. In addition to my three sons and their families, I now have a stepfamily. We are thinking about complete retirement soon.

Virginia Obrecht Popejoy Smith: I was born at Meridian, Kansas on February 2, 1931. I attended one year of school in the country. In 1938 we moved to the old Willy place about 12 miles NE of Wamego. I attended Tannerville School until May 1945. I attended high school at Wamego 1945-49. I was first married August 27, 1950 and divorced in 1978. I took care of parents from 1983-89. I attended Kansas State and graduated from there in 1989. After I married Lester Smith, we cooperated in running the Singer store. And we still do. Since February 2, 2002, we have had Lester’s sister, Charlotte Vance, in the apartment behind the shop. She is 83, and not in good health.  The doctor says I’m very healthy. I guess I got the good genes. My address is: 418 W. 11th St., Junction, KS. 66441, e-mail: [email protected]

FEB. 21 1997. Bethel Cemetery. Iatan, Mo. Located grave of John Robison Andrew's wife Elizabeth (Kesler)Andrew. We found no record of John Robison Andrew. We also look at Weston Library. Pictures taken of all stones. We also located several Bishop and Alexander stones. Bad day, heavy snow. Clark L. Carley, Dorothy Calkin and Virginia Popejoy, all related. Dorothy and Virginia have done research. To date, I  have not worked on the Andrew line. We plan to return again. Elizabeth Andrew is our great grand mother on our grand mother Dora May (Andrew) Carley side of the tree. Returned again in April of 1998, and still was unable to find the grave of John R. Andrew. Also visited Shirleys Genealogy  Center on main street in Platte, Mo. She was unable to help me. Also news paper records in Weston, Mo. Mr. Bliss. Revised 1997 Revised June 1998 Pictures and obits adds. And pedigree chart. Aug. 1998 htm.
     [Additional story from  Dorothy Calkin] I remember Mom,  ( My Aunt Margie) telling of one time when she was teaching close to home that she sprained her ankle very badly. Grandma and Grandpa made her put on a tight leather boot, lazed tightly. She had to walk to school several miles. Then again when Uncle Milt had blood poison in his leg, and nearly died, he was made to continue to work. When Grandma lived with us, her verbal abuse was sometimes was vicious. Her favorite saying to me was "you are big enough, old enough and ugly enough to know better>" Of course, that didn't do much for my ego. I was usually the one to catch the brunt of her wrath. I think Morn and Dad tried hard not to continue the abuse. But is was not considered abuse then. It was considered handling children.  (If we had the laws then that we have now, they would have but my Dad, Lee under the jail, not in it. I could write another book about that subject.
