From Rush County News- Rush Co., Kansas- April 1948
FORMER RESIDENT TAKES OWN LIFE
William Weaver Van Osdol, 67, long time Rush county resident, died at
his farm home near Princeton early Sunday morning from a self-inflicted
gunshot on 4 April 1948. Death was instantaneous when the shot from a
20-guage shotgun struck his heart.
Relatives could give no reason for his action except that he had been
despondent for several weeks.
Mr. and Mrs. Van Osdol moved from La Crosse, KS. to near Princeton
several months ago. Prior to their move, he had been with the Rush county
road department for nearly twenty-five years.
Funeral services were conducted here Wednesday 7 April 1948 and burial
was made in the La Crosse cemetery.
Born in Bethel, MO., December 11, 1880, Mr. Van Osdol came to Kansas at
an early age. He lived in Rush Center for a number of years, later moving to
La Crosse.
He is survived by his wife, two sons, George of Pauls Valleey, Okla.,
Leland, of the home, one step-daughter Mrs. Juanita Kreie and by six chidren
by his first marriage, Elton of Los Angeles, CA., Mrs. (Bertha) A. L. Keck
of Colby, Ks., Mrs (Dorothy) C. E. Reneau of Los Angeles, Mrs.
(Vesta)Rexford T. Bowman of Loudonville, Ohio, and Perry of La Crosse, KS..
William Weaver Van Osdol's biography by his daughter Bessie Van
Osdol Schneider
He was a part-time farmer who never got the "feel of the land" but
who had "a way with motors," a "Natural-born mechanic" best described
Weaver whose relatives called him "Weave " and his friends called
him "Pete."
He came to Kansas when he was about 19 years of age and eventually
was hired by Joseph Wesley Blackburn McClintock to help on his farm
located south of Rush Center. After his marriage to Mr. Clintock's
daughter Clara in 1905, Weve and Clara moved to Gove County, Kansas,
"to live on a homestead and prove it up." Elton was born there while
they were living at Shields. [Shields is in Lane Co. not Gove Co.
Elton was born in a sod house on the prairie.] when the young couple
moved back to Rush Center Bertha [Bertie] was born. Taking the two
small tots, the couple returned to Missouri for a visit; however,
they remained and lived there for 10 years.
After Grandmother Catherine's [Catherine Vawter Van Osdol] death in
1913, Weave and Clara moved into the George H. Van Osdol farm home
to live with Grandfather George while Weave tended the farm. They
lived there for 3 1/2 years. But, because the nearest school was
three miles from the farm, a long walk for small Elton and Bertha,
Clara insisted that they move to Shelbina where there was a good
school within walking distance, for now three of growning family
had to be considered. It was in Shelbina, MO that Weave's mechanical
ability came to light, especially when working on the motors of cars
at Saunder's Garage. For several years this became Weave's specialty.
Dspite the growing family, now numbering five, Weave became restless
and went job hunting in Kansas. He was hired as a machanic in the
Harris Garage in Hanover, Kansas, and so Clara packed up the family
nad moved to Hanover. World War I ended and with it came the
dreaded 1918 flu attack, something we managed to survive. When Vesta
Merle was about three months old, Clara, this time alone, packed up
the family belongings and taking the six children feft for Rush
Center, Kansas where her parents lived in June of 1920. After about
a year, Grandmother Francis [Wolf] Mc Clintock became ill and left
to live in Dallas, Texas, with her daughter Mary Frances [Aunt May],
and so Clara and her six moved into the Mc Clintock residence (near
Rush Center, KS.) to take care of Grandfather Mc. [Joseph Wesley
Blackburn Mc Clintock]. Because of Grand-dad's 18 months service
in Co. A, First Pennsylvania Cavalry during the Civil War War, he
qualified for entrance into the Veteran's Home in Roseburg,Oregon,
providing he could prove established residence in oregon for a six
month's period. He left Rush Center and went to live with a
daughter, Mrs. Matilda Thompson [Aunt Tillie] at Salem, Oregon, for
the six months required residence for entrance into the home. (His
back was hurt during the Civil War when his unit was out on patrole
and as the years progressed he developed a hunch back because of
the ingury. It got so bad that he could not longer work his farm.
He had to prove how his ingury happened in order to get a pension.
His grand daughter Glee Van Osdol has his pension records and he
had a terrible time hunting down someone who knew him when the
ingury happend and could vouch for his back ingury. He finally found
someone who was able to do this.)
From then on the former Mc Clintock residence became our home for
about 20 years.
In 1920, after the divorce decree had been granted to Clara, Weave
married a young divorcee Clara (Curtis) Wilkerson who had a small
daugher, Juanita. Weave and his second wife lived in La Crosse where
he became a member of the maintenance crew of the Rush County Highway
Department, He becane foreman, retiring about 1948. (Weave and Clara
Bell married in 1923 not 1920 like this reads.)
Like everyone else, we lived though the financial crisis, the
stockmaket crash of 1929 and the closing of the banks. Times were
hard; jobs were scarce. Then came the depression and next the Dust
Bowl Era. Despite all of this, Clara kept her brood of six together
and saw five of them being graduated from La Crosse Rual High School,
yet managed to keep the home in Rush Center.
