Max Von Wille

Great news on my great grandfather, Maximillian Von Wille. He is one of my brickwalls. I had written to a volunteer from the Louisville Genealogy Society and she was going to look up any articles in the newspaper. This was a while back and I completely forgot, and so had she,lol. Well I just got an email from her helper and she found this information:

I have a copy of the Coroner's Memo, a copy of the
city directory listing for the Argonne Hotel and the
article in the newspaper telling that the pistol was
found under him in his hotel room and that he left a
signed note attributine the act to "ill health" and
what to do with his personal belongings. Also, that
he was from New York City and connected with the
editorial offices of the American Historical Society.

She is going to mail the copy's to me. One thing I didn't know is that he was from NYC. I know he came from Berlin and that he spent time in Miami and Alabama and Louisville, KY where he died. Hope these will open a door!

Wordless Wednesday

Coteau-du-Lac Canal
The First Lock Canal in North America



This picture evoques a period scene where some of the King's Royal Regiment soldiers of New York work around a boat coming into the Coteau-du-Lac Canal.
© Parks Canada / Rex Wood ( Maurice Dunberry) / 1967

I thought I'd start participating in Wordless Wednesday for an incentive to hunt down historical photos of where my ancestors came from.
Many of my ancestors settled in New France (Quebec).

The construction of the canal at Coteau-du-Lac began in 1779 under the command of William Twiss. Soldiers in the King's Royal Regiment of New York, a colonial unit made up of Loyalists, were mobilized to dig the canal out of rock using rudimentary tools and techniques. When construction was completed in 1781, the canal was more than 100 m long and 2.5 m wide. Each of the three locks was 12 m long and 1.8 m wide, with draft measuring close to 80 cm. Taken together, these locks compensated for a drop of about 2 m between the head and the bottom of the rapids. The canal was the first work of its kind in North America.

The Coteau-du-Lac canal went into full use from the moment it opened; a toll was even charged on boat traffic. However, the canal was unable to solve all the problems involved by river navigation upstream from Montréal. Three additional canals were built in the sector as of 1783, at the Faucille, Trou-du-Moulin and Rocher-Fendu locations. As the first canal work on the St. Lawrence, these canal infrastructures represented a valuable aid to navigation.

Houle's in the News

From the Plattsburg Sentinel

1909

The evidence in the preliminary examination of the Houle brothers who are charged with the murder of their brother-in-law, has been concluded in Valleyfield and both of the brothers had been held to await the action of the grand jury, and it is probable that they will be tried for their crime next February. The brothers told very contradictory stories and the evidence submitted at the examination is regarded as quite strong.

Tues. Oct. 5, 1920

Hector Houle, aged 22, of Cohoes, was found at Pavillion F of the tuberculosis camp at Albany Thursday morning with his throat cut. He had been at the camp for three months and lately became violently ill. The circumstances indicated suicide.


1909
John Houle of Mountain View was buried from the R. C. church here on Wednesday.

Friday June 4, 1909

Mrs. Albert Houle was suddenly called to Lyon Mountain last week by the sad news that her husband who was employed there had met with an accident in breaking his leg in two places.

1881

Bruno Houle, an old man of Montreal, Canada, is of the opinion that woman should have her rights, one of those rights being the maintenance of her husband. He has therefore brought an action against his wife for support. He alleges he is unable from illness to provide the necessaries of life, and claims a support from his better half, who is in affluent circumstances. The wife repudiates her husbands demands. Bruno thinks that it is a poor rule that won't work both ways.

Isaac Sweat-GGG Grandfather

From the Fitchburg Sentinel:

June 13, 1921

FITCHBURG CITIZEN SAYS REMARKABLE RESTORATION IS ENTIRELY DUE TO TANLAC:

"I am now 84 years of age and if my word will do any good I am glad to give this statement and speak up for Tanlac", said Isaac A. Sweat, retired carpenter and farmer living at 107 Myrtle Ave, Fitchburg, Mass., recently.
Mr. Sweat is a veteran of the Civil War, having seen three years service in the Union Ranks.
"Some time ago", he went on, "I saw a statement in the paper about Tanlac from a man living in New Bedford who had been suffering just like I was. He was well up in years too and had been helped so much by Tanlac that I made further inquiry about the medicine. I found that it was helping people everywhere so I made up my mind to see if it would fit my case".
"I had bee to failing health for more than a year. My appetite had gone back on me and my stomach was in bad shape and I couldn't eat much of anything. I had a stubborn case of constipation that had been bothering me for a long time and I couldn't find anything that would relieve me. I was run down all over and wanted to sleep all the time and just felt weak and no account."
"Well nothing has suprised me more than Tanlac has relieved me of my troubles and built me up. Why, on my very first bottle my appetite picked up and I could just feel myself getting better and stronger. And now I have finished my third bottle and I feel as well as I ever did in my life. My stomach is in fine shape and I believe constipation has left me for good. I am glad to recommend Tanlac for I don't believe anybody can take it without being helped."
