DIED, at the home of her daughter Mrs. M.L. Frerkson, in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa Friday, February 19, ELIZA AYDELOTT, aged 67 years, 9 months, and 6 days.

Another mother in Israel has gone to join the silent majority who dwell across the Valley of Death. This time it is one of the pioneer women of our country, who has seen during the fifty years of her residence here the prairies reclaimed from waste and made to blossom with the harvest, while prosperous towns and villages have grown up round about. Her's was a good life, and its influence will continue to be felt not only by the family, but by all others with whom she came in intimate contact, as the days go by. A devoted wife, a kind mother, a faithful friend and a trusting follower of the master, she has left behind her the good name which is rather to be desired than great riches.

ELIZA J.(JANE) RHOADS (RHODES) was born in Champaign County, Illinois, November 13, 1836, and on the 13th day of February, 1855, she was united in marriage with Benjamin Aydelott. To this union were born four sons and five daughters, all of whom save two survive the mother. In the fall of 1856 the family, consisting of father, mother, and infant daughter Mary came to Greene County, and her home has been here ever since. In the year 1886 she united with the Baptist Church under the ministry of Rev. W.E. Randall, and was very much devoted to the work of the denomination. Her husband died in1895, since which time she has made her home with her children. Besides her sons and daughters, she leaves to mourn her two brothers and four sisters, all of whom save one were here to attend the funeral. They are: Mrs. Jacob Winkelman, Mrs. W.H. Adams, Mrs. Herman L. Dresser, Mrs. Wesley Adams, Mr. Alf Rhoads, and Mr. Perry Rhoads.

Will dated September 29, 1925; Probate filed June 20, 1927, Taylor co., Iowa

Lenox Time - Table, Thursday, October 6, 1927, page 3

It is a feeling of sadness that this paper records the passing of another of our older residents and a thoroughly good woman, Mrs. J. West Jones. - For months it has been known that the end was approaching and her family have spent much time at her bedside, where she was a most patient sufferer. Since the death of her husband in May, Mrs. Jones has been in failing health. - Mrs. Jones passed away at her home in this city Friday, September 30, at noon. Services were held Sunday afternoon at the home, conducted by Rev. E. C. Miller, assisted by Rev. E. R. Stroud and she was laid to rest by the side of her husband in the Lenox cemetery. - Virginia A. Gatlin, daughter of James and Nancy Gatlin, was born in Illinois, September 25, 1848, and departed this life in Lenox on September 30, 1927, at the age of 79 years and five days. - She was married in Brighton, Iowa, March 25, 1869 to George V Allen. They moved to Fairfield in April of 1879 and then to Lenox on her birthday, September 25, 1880. Thus she lived in Lenox for over 47 years. They were among the early settlers in Lenox, where Mr. Allen operated the Lenox mill. To this union were born seven children: *Horace D, Grace M, Frank G, Charles J, R. Rush, Ralph J. and George V, all of whom are living, with the exception of one daughter, Grace, who was married September 10, 1889, to J. N. Kanoff and died January 11, 1902. Mr. Allen died in Lenox, November 13, 1883. - Virginia Allen was married November 27, 1888 to J. West Jones, who was one of the very earliest of the Lenox Pioneers and for a great many years was a leading auctioneer of Iowa. To this union was born one son, Harry A. Jones, who still survives. - All of the above named boys have visited the home recently and all of them except Frank and George Allen, who live in Los Angeles, were here for the service, several being accompanied by their wives. Besides the nine boys and their wives there are 25 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren. The deceased was the eldest of 9 children and is also survived by six sisters....

Notes: The Lenox paper for the week of May 26, 1927 is missing and is the one which would have contained J. West Jones' obituary. Orval A. Jones was appointed executor.

One of Lenapah's most Loved Women died Friday

Friday morning at 2 o'clock, Mrs. Volumia (George) Beard d. at her home in Lenapah after an illness of several years.

Mrs. Beard was born in Knox county, Iowa,[Illinois] March 17, 1852. On October 15th 1873, she married in Prairie City, Iowa to William F. Beard. She moved with her husband to Lenapah, I. T., about sixteen years ago, where she has ever since made her home. Her husband is a brother of Mrs. J. B. Smith, of this city. She is survived by her husband, one brother [Albert L. George] and one sister [Elizabeth Ann (George) Calahan]. No Children were born of the union. [Only child, son Albert, must have d. in infancy]

Mrs. Beard was a conscientious Christian woman, loved by all who knew her for her beautiful character and sweet, unselfish disposition. She was a member of the Christian church and was known for her untiring efforts in furthering the cause of the One to whom she had so long looked for a final end to her earthly suffering. She had been ill with cancer for several years. Last winter she was taken to Dubuque, Iowa, for an operation. This failing to do her any material good, she was operated on in Kansas City about four months ago. Since that time she and all her loved ones have recognized the inevitable fate that was swiftly bearing down upon her. Still, through all her suffering, she never complained that the cup was too full of bitterness and when she finally d. amid the heartbroken loved ones who gathered at her bedside to receive her last blessing, she seemed only to be drifting peacefully out into the land where care and suffering never come.

The body was brought here for burial. The funeral was held at the grave side in Elmwood cemetery [Coffyville, Kansas]. The services were conducted by Rev. Ellis Purlee.

185. George Greenbury Bivans (Silas 3, Ruth 2, William 1)

b. May 16, 1858 Georgetown, Ohio - m. 26 Nov 1885 in Talmadge, Nebraska, Elizabeth Campbell b. 19 May 1861 in Gallipolis, Ohio - d. 24 Sep 1905 in Guthrie, Oklahoma.

George Greenbury Bivans was born May 16, 1858, in Georgetown, Ohio.

It is believed that George and Elizabeth moved to Colorado in 1887 to take advantage of free land that was being offered to settlers at that time. Their daughter, Florence relates this story:

I do imagine covered wagon was the only way to get down to Boston, Colorado, I don't think there was any transportation from Lincoln there. They took a claim but never stayed long enough to get the title. They first lived in a dug out (cellar) but when I was born (Aug. 2, 1888), they had moved into a little place called Boston, Las Animas Co., into a sod house with a dirt floor. Mother said I fell out of bed and got dirt in my mouth.

We do not know where this claim was, but suspect it was near the town of Boston. George's brother, Americus also seems to have staked a claim next to his. The town of Boston had been platted in 1886 and incorporated in 1887, and had a post office until 1893. Towns had sprung up in many locations in this area in order to provide services for the farmers within easy access of 3-5 miles. Boston was established 18 miles from the Kansas line and 17 1/2 miles north of No Man's Land (the neutral strip). An 1887 map show the town situated on the headwaters of a small tributary of an unnamed creek, probably Sand Arroyo on what must be a bit of highlands. A road crossed from northeast to the south. The old trail to Santa Fe had crossed the corner of Colorado along the Cimarron River itself, south of Boston. Boston had a reputation for being one of the roughest towns on the plains. It grew faster than the neighboring towns to become the largest trading center for miles around. It had a three-story hotel, four or five saloons, several stores and other businesses, a post office and three weekly newspapers. The hotel, The Boston House, was advertised as the finest west of Wichita.

For a while the law in Boston was Cornelius Smith, alias William Cornelius, a reformed horse thief, who later reverted to his old ways. In October 1888 he was indicted for stealing two horses...an action that ended his career as a lawman. Bill Thompson (said to be an alias for Charley Hall) a notorious 'regulator', employed by several big cattle outfits to keep rustling and other depredations under control, often came to Boston.

("The Town Boom in Las Animas and Baca Counties," by Morris F. Taylor, Colorado Magazine 55:111-132, 1978.)

Elizabeth told her children a story of how she once met the infamous, Billy the Kid. There are two versions of the story, Florence's:

I think while they still lived in the dugout, Father (George) drove 70 miles north to get coal and a cowboy came and asked to lay on the floor and sleep. Mother said he slept sound all night, got up and thanked her and left. She sat by her bed with hand on gun. Perhaps that was Billy the Kid. He was captured around there.

and John's:

At one time, Billy the Kid was in the area. Mother happened to be home alone when he knocked at the door. She tried not to act scared but asked if he wanted to come in. She was fixing stew and expecting the men folks home any minute, and invited him in to have some. He replied, "Don't mind if I do". He ate well, then dozed in a chair, guns on lap, for about an hour, he awoke, and left as suddenly as he had arrived.

At the time, the panhandle of what is now Oklahoma, did not belong to any state and subsequently there was no established law. It was known commonly as No Man's Land. No Man's Land was notorious for its blizzards. John relates this story:

Father, with Uncle Americus, drove down to the Panhandle of Oklahoma and was caught in a great blizzard and turned the wagon over and slept under it for shelter. This was either in 1888 or '89. They had gone to get wood. They had heard of a herd of deer near their claim, but had not seen any. On leaving, Mother was instructed to shoot a deer if she got a chance. Later, the herd of deer walked slowly through the area near the house. Mother took the gun, and was ready to shoot, but when she saw the expression of the eyes of the lead deer, she decided she couldn't shoot him! When the men returned, they razzed her about it.

Once when Charles, John's older brother, was sitting outside playing, his mother saw a rattlesnake close by. She got a shovel and killed it in time to save the baby.

The George Bivans family left Boston for Trinidad in 1889. His brother, Americus, was already in Trinidad.

A cousin of Elizabeth's, Bill Day, was living in Trinidad and was the corps Sergeant Major at the local Salvation Army. George and family joined the church. One evening, during an Open Air meeting, a local saloon keeper had all of the men arrested, including George. They were tried the following Monday and found guilty. No one had the money to pay the fine so they all went back to jail. A local business man is said to have taken the case to the Colorado Supreme Court and won the right to hold religious services. The story goes, that the city of Trinity was ordered to pay the Salvation Army, $15,000, which is no small sum in this day and time, but in the late 1800's it was a fortune!

During their stay in Trinidad, George went to hear the founder of the Salvation Army, William Booth, speak in St. Louis. After the meeting George got in line to meet him. Apparently, George was wearing his S.A. uniform, because when Booth shook his hand and realized that he was a soldier he said, "Soldiers should salute!"

In 1893 after the death of his father, Silas, George moved the family back to Chasetown, Ohio. His mother, Ruth, lived with them until her death in 1904. They had four more children while living here.

In 1901, George moved the family to Guthrie, Oklahoma, to take part in the 'running' for the homesteads.

[Wsbivans.FTW]

Ernest Bivans believes that George ended up in Atlanta, Georgia.
