There are quite a few reasons I turned over a dollar for these.<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>I am a <a href="http://www.mooseintl.org/public/default.asp">Moose</a> member.</li>
<li>I like history.</li>
<li>There are unidentified faces who are someone's ancestors.</li>
<li>Something to share with <a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/103938479125563369465">Fraternal Organizations for Genealogists</a> </li>
<li>Did I mention I like history?</li>

I did a little googling to see if by chance these photos were out on the web somewhere. The only one I found was a similar shot of the old <a href="http://www.ccpl.lib.fl.us/historical/orangepark.html">Marion Hotel</a>. Apparently it has had several different names. The Loyal Order of the Moose bought the hotel located in Orange Park in the 1920s. <a href="http://www.moosehaven.org/">Moosehaven "City of Contentment"</a> now stands where the hotel used to be. Here is an interesting <a href="http://jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/100902/nec_10631231.shtml">article</a> about how Moosehaven came to be.</div>

I couldn't seem to find anything about Moose Relief, but I believe the L.O.O.M. 107 is located in Marysville, Pennsylvania. This lodge was involved in a pretty significant lawsuit, <i><a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=s7JP9hC2aqwC&pg=PA96&lpg=PA96&dq=moose+lodge+107+history&source=bl&ots=i8S3mf04gT&sig=lbswmlivu2XFKBFgOWV8hm8NLvA&hl=en&sa=X&ei=6qFAUqmwEYzQ8wTM0oGwCw&ved=0CEgQ6AEwBDgK#v=onepage&q=moose%20lodge%20107%20history&f=false">Moose Lodge No. 107 v.

According to the writing underneath this photo it is the Moose R & R Headquarters in Paris in 1917/1918. I haven't figured out what R & R stands for, but I did find a 1918 news article in the Pittsburgh Press on <a href="http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1144&dat=19180707&id=uEYbAAAAIBAJ&sjid=7UkEAAAAIBAJ&pg=1564,1521157">Google News</a> entitled Paris Moose Headquarters Aids U.S. Men. In fact, the whole page is called "News of the Moose".</div>
<div>

The following photos were taken about 1922-1926 at Moosehaven. Hopefully someone can identify these Moose members.<br />

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
It will be remembered that a few weeks ago, <b>a slave named Edmund</b> was arrested as a fugitive on board an upward bound steamer by <b>officer Gilchrist</b>, and placed in jail, in this city, it being the object of the policeman to return the negro to his master, who resides in Tennessee. It appears that the negro, who had been permitted by his master to work on the rebel fortifications at Fort Donelson, had been seized by the Federal army, and that he had been turned over to <b>Captain Leland</b> of New York, a member of General Grant's staff. At the time of his arrest, the negro was on his way to New York, and was traveling under a pass from <b>General Grant</b>. A short time after the negro's arrest, <b>Captain Leland</b> appeared and commenced proceeding in the United States Court, <b>Judge Ballard</b>, for the negro's release. The evidence was heard a few days since, his Honor <b>Judge Ballard</b> withholding his decision until yesterday, when he decided, in effect, that the negro is no longer the property of his master, the master having forfeited the right of property in the slave when he permitted him to be used in aid of the rebellion. The negro was accordingly released. ---Louisville Journal, June 25th.</blockquote>

<br />
Since this little bit didn't mention the groom of Elizabeth Barrett I had to go on a search for him.<br />
<br />
The first clue I found was from a<a href="http://trees.ancestrylibrary.com/tree/49725197/person/20247884190?ssrc="> public family tree</a> giving her husband as Ivan Oliver Ballou. Well we all know that's not enough to prove anything.<br />
<br />
The second clue was <a href="http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/democratandchronicle/obituary.aspx?page=lifestory&pid=152038598#fbLoggedOut">Elizabeth A. Ballou's obituary</a> p<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">ublished in Rochester Democrat And Chronicle on June 19, 2011</span>: </span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Winter Haven, FL: Friday, June 17, 2011 at the age of 93. Formerly of Irondequoit. Pre-deceased by her husband Ivan, sisters, Althea Lauffer and Wynona Williams, granddaughter, Deanna Davis. Mrs. Ballou is survived by her children, Virginia (Dale) Zeigler, Kenneth (Bertie), Raymond (Nora), Donald (Kathie), Robert (Pat) and Neil Ballou, 9 grandchildren, 13 great grandchildren, brother-in-law, Donald Williams, many nieces, nephews and cousins. </span></span></blockquote>
<br />
And the third clue that ties it all together if the Find A Grave memorial for the bride's father <a href="http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=barrett&GSfn=floyd&GSbyrel=all&GSdyrel=all&GSst=36&GScntry=4&GSob=n&GRid=103636640&df=all&">Floyd Barrett</a>.<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Dansville County Express, October 10, 1985:<br /></span></span><br />
<blockquote>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Floyd W. Barrett, a longtime Dansville businessman, died Tuesday (Oct. 1, 1985) after a short illness. He was 93 and a resident of St. John's Home in Rochester. </span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Mr. Barrett came to Dansville in 1927 where he was a watchmaker in his Main St. store. In 1945, he formed a partnership with his son-in-law, Edwin Lauffer and the business is still known as Barrett and Lauffer. Mr. Barrett retired in 1951.</span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">He was a 50-year honorary member of Canaseraga Lodge, IOOF and Stony Brook Rebekah Lodge and Phoenix Lodge 115, F.&A.M. in Dansville. At the time of his death, he was the oldest member of the Dansville Methodist Church.</span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">He had resided at St. John's Home for 13 years.</span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Surviving are three daughters, Mrs. Ivan (Elizabeth) Ballou of Rochester; Mrs. Edwin (Althea) Lauffer of Dansville and Mrs. Don (Wynona) Williams of Rochester; 14 grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren; a brother, Leo Barrett of Geneva.</span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">A memorial service was conducted Friday in the Chapel of St. John's Home with the Rev. Probst officiating. Burial was in Ionia NY cemetery.</span></span></blockquote>
<br />
The unmentioned groom is none other than Ivan Oliver Ballou.<br />

<br />
While strolling through <a href="http://www.theantiquemarketofsanjose.com/">The Antique Market</a> I found this curious little book that I just had to have.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTwXYgtF53JdszjvBzh46i0t8-QColbjsOikQv5Lc9370sRM2y8bTPuxj6B6zwl5NLk4D7IdaP-t6guh-ttzt3ZuEPW7yl227HjRhIqyTvyUxjH8SgMcU6_nERndOushxf8oCDyR6GxJk/s1600/Speaking+of+Having+a+Good+Time.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="222" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTwXYgtF53JdszjvBzh46i0t8-QColbjsOikQv5Lc9370sRM2y8bTPuxj6B6zwl5NLk4D7IdaP-t6guh-ttzt3ZuEPW7yl227HjRhIqyTvyUxjH8SgMcU6_nERndOushxf8oCDyR6GxJk/s400/Speaking+of+Having+a+Good+Time.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
I had to chuckle when I got it home and looked through it. It's full of party games, recipes and songs and a few photos. The Wilken family must not have any women in their family. There was not one photo of a woman in this whole book.<br />
<br />
How about we celebrate my blogoversary with a glass of Colonial Punch (or Teetotal Punch).<br />

A couple of months ago I was lucky enough to find a <a href="http://ancestorslivehere.blogspot.com/2012/06/family-history-through-alphabet.html">patent</a> belonging to my great-grandfather published in an 1866 issue of the Scientific American. So I thought I had better get busy and post these illustrated inventions from the issue I have. Someone might be looking for them.<br />

I found Mr. John T. Moxley in the 1870 census. He was listed as a farmer. I am guessing he had a rodent problem.<div>

While strolling through Ramona Flea Market I found the cutest little book. I couldn't resist it so I bought it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5eMjnISayCTvHg4js_DzoYeAye5JCSUdadjh1U6-VWEaFhHpctXOIfjl1zhl38vFYU44Z7RN0772xzb9Vish1RH50mH7CQxzqD0weXW0mw4aFlQDatJqD5qqHIHZ-PYW2CD_XFvEWFG4/s1600/Little+Red+Riding+Hood+Cover.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5eMjnISayCTvHg4js_DzoYeAye5JCSUdadjh1U6-VWEaFhHpctXOIfjl1zhl38vFYU44Z7RN0772xzb9Vish1RH50mH7CQxzqD0weXW0mw4aFlQDatJqD5qqHIHZ-PYW2CD_XFvEWFG4/s320/Little+Red+Riding+Hood+Cover.jpg" width="218" /></a></div>
<br />
The book is 4 x 6 in size and it is has a hard cover that is padded and consists of 16 pages. <br />
<br />
Apparently this was a promotional series put out by A&W. I had never seen or heard of one before so I just had to get it.<br />
<br />
It was printed in 2001 by Creative Publishing. <br />
<br />
I think it would be fun to collect the whole series.<br />

Among the loose newspaper clippings from the <a href="http://ancestorsinthenews.blogspot.com/2012/03/literature-scrap-book.html">Literature Scrap Book</a> I found is this wedding announcement. It's on the reverse side of an article about "Charlie Chan's Papa".<br />
<br />
Unfortunately I can't tell you which newspaper this was printed in, but I believe it was one from the New London, New Hampshire area.<br />

"A wedding of interest was that yesterday at New London of Miss Deborah Perkins, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Grafton B. Perkins of Cambridge, to Mr. James Mandeville Carlisle, son of Mrs. Joseph Fauntleroy Barnes of Fort Bragg, N C, and the late Mr. James Mandeville Carlisle of Washington."</blockquote>

Two or three weeks ago I was browsing around in <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Ivy-Cottage-of-Macclenny-FL/196276930548?sk=wall">The Ivy Cottage </a>and found this scrap book. Unfortunately there is no real indication as to who the owner was.<br />
<br />
There are fourteen pages of newspaper clippings from what I can tell the years 1936-1937. The clippings consist of a series called "Do You Know". The articles include a drawing of an author and a short biography. Underneath the picture is the phrase <i>For Your Literature Scrapbook: </i>followed by the bio.<br />

<br />
I have not been able to find out anything about these articles. I don't know who wrote them, or which papers they were published in. <br />
<br />
There are also a bunch of loose clippings that didn't get plastered with glue. These are articles, photos, and obits of authors. Luckily on the backsides are some obits and other happenings that I can share.<br />
<br />
I think the clippings come from a few different newspapers. One of them is from the <a href="http://bostonglobe.com/">Boston Globe</a>, October 1937 and another is from <a href="http://www.providencejournal.com/">The Providence Sunday Journal,</a> January 1936. I think the "Do You Know" articles are from the <a href="http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83045211/">Evening Public Ledger</a>.<br />
<br />
There is one clipping that might be a clue as to whose scrapbook this was and it has nothing to do with literature (I don't think). One side is the obituary of Frank L. Towle of Conway, New Hampshire, and the other side is a photo of Charles Carter, Register of Deeds in Ossipee, New Hampshire. Which of these fellows was of interest to the scrapbooker?<br />
