Henry born 9 April 1826 in Gosport, Hampshire England, he and his 1st wife Maggie Jenkins departed London on board the "Wenhem" & arrived at Baltimore, Md. on 5 May 1849. They went to Ohio where their son was born and then came to the area near Omaha where a daughter was born, Maggie died on 18 March 1855. He then married Rhoda Jane Gott on 26 Sept 1855 in Hamilton Co., Il., they were the parents of 5 daughters. Rhoda died on 8 April 1872 and Henry married Sue E. White on 8 June 1873 in Wayne Co., Il., they had 3 children. Henry died 16 Sept 1910 in White Co., Il. and Sue outlived him by 13 years. I also have info on all the children, his parents and siblings, plus Henry service record. I have some info on Margery Jane Miller but no pictures, if you let me know what you have I might be able to send something on the Miller line. As always good luck on your research.

Gott killing his lover, he was sentenced, though, for the murder of his wife in 1899. I would appreciate anything you can share. Thanks, Lynda http://genforum.genealogy.com/gott/messages/918.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Bill, I have found the information on the indictment of killing his wife, but no mention of the death of his lover. I believe her name was "Mrs Lou Rankin"... if you have any more information on this, I'd be very interested in it. Thanking you, this is proving to be a very sad story. The little girl was 7 at the time, in the care of Daniel P. Gotts. http://genforum.genealogy.com/gott/messages/915.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Re: Daniel P. Gott, White County, IL The record of his indictment can be found on Google. Where did you get your information? Gott married a relative of mine in the '60s, then when she died he married Lechner within a year. He seems to have had a live-in girlfriend in a nearby town Convicted of killing her and her unborn baby in 1899, he spent years in prison until 'pardoned" in 1914 because he was about to die of TB. Gott was a veteran and pensioner from the Civil War. http://genforum.genealogy.com/gott/messages/916.html -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fascinating! This is very interesting to me. I'm interested in someone who was under his care (he was her guardian) - a young girl by the name of Elsie May Wheeler. Someone emailed the following to me yesterday. This was in the White County Courthouse records: 'There was a very interesting 6 page letter to a judge written by a H. (Henry) Wakeford, Jr. in Sep 1899 that requested that Elsie's then guardian, Daniel P. Gott be removed as her guardian because he was not doing his job. It mentions that he collected money for operations performed on Elsie by doctors who never charged for their services. Another statement reads "The little girl is to be pitied cant walk a step...". The attorney for Mr. Gott files a request for continuance in Nov 1899 to post pone the hearing because "the defendant Dan P. Gott is now in the county jail..." ' Elsie was an orphan. I think she may have been related to Gott as I found records that Elsie's maternal grandmother married Anthony Wayne Gott in 1862, but I'm not sure if he is her grandfather. I have not come across the records on Google. I will try again to find them. Could you perhaps send me the link if you have time? Thanking you, this is very interesting. Lynda http://genforum.genealogy.com/gott/messages/920.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anthony Gott married Helen Hill. He was dead by 1880, but not before they had a daughter, Mary, in 1866. One young Elsie Wheeler I can locate in Illinois in 1900 was in he Eastern Illinois Home for the Insane. She was fifteen. The Mary above would have been he right age to be the mother. I have no reason to assume that Dan Gott, a soldier/musician in he Civil War, also killed his lover. He and my relative, Mary Jane Jennings, had one daughter, Minerva, before Mary Jane died in 1887. Minerva married William Gayle in 1881. Helen Hill was Elsie's grandmother, but her mother was Louisa Wheeler (nee Hill) and her father was Willis A. Wheeler. Helen's marriage to Anthony was her second marriage. Thanks for looking, but Elsie was not in the home for insane, rather, in 1899, at the age of 12, she was sent to St. Louis to the Home For The Incurables. She had rheumatoid arthritis. There is no record of her birth. She was the youngest of five. Daniel became her 'guardian' in 1894. From the paperwork I've seen just recently, I believe he was into dipping into the pension she was entitled to as she was handicapped. I dread to think what she went through. There is no mention of her in the trial, which makes me wonder where she was living. She was apparently in a wheelchair from the age of three. I did not know there was a child from Helen's marriage to Anthony Gott, so that's interesting, thanks. I thought you were suggesting that Daniel Gott killed his lover because you mentioned "utericide" - his wife was 63 at the time he killed her (1899), so I don't think utericide was involved. Cheers, Lynda http://www.sabiansymbols.com/sabian-detail99b4.html?id=1009 Elsie May Wheeler - Spiritualist Medium With a Gift for the World The universe is the bride of the soul. Ralph Waldo Emerson* Elsie Wheeler was born Elsie May Wheeler on September 3, 1887 at 9.39 pm in Norris City, Southern Illinois. Not a great deal is known about her life, but the legacy she left behind lives on through the gift that is the Sabian Symbols. Severely afflicted with rheumatoid arthritis, apparently she spent her entire life in a wheelchair. Even though her birthday Sabian Symbol is Virgo 12: A Bride With Her Veil Snatched Away, Elsie never married nor had children. It seems she may have been "wedded" to a higher spiritual purpose. Her "Veil" seems to be firmly in place as not much has been recorded or written about her. Still, I have spent many years researching genealogy records in an effort to find out as much as I could about her. Unfortunately, I've not been able to find a photo of her, although there was one that accompanied one of the articles below, but it was completely black and ruined by age. Elsie, born in 1887, was the youngest of 5 children. Her siblings' names were Ada, Cora, Edward and Charles. The family lived in Mayberry in Hamilton County,and also in Norris City in White County. Her mother's name was Louisa and her father's name Willis. Her mother She was left an orphan after her mother died in 1891 and her father in 1894. Her sister, Cora, died in 1902, Cora's husband, Henry Wakeford died in 1905 and their daughter (Elsie's niece) died in 1900. Cora, however, had another child, Suzanne, who became very close to Elsie in her later years. Confined to a wheelchair her entire life with rheumatoid arthritis, in the 1900, 1910 and 1920 US Census, Elsie is listed as being at the Bethesda Hospital and Home for the Incurables in St. Louis, Missouri, which means she must have been in the Home for the Incurables for at least 20 years. She moved to San Diego some time early in the 1920's, from my research it seems she moved there in 1923 (when she was 36) living with a man listed in the 1930 Census as being her uncle - Frank W. Baxter. From the San Diego City records, Frank and Elsie lived in India Street, Washington and Market Street at various times. In the 1930 Census, Frank was listed as being a barber and Elsie a spiritualist medium. Although Frank was described as her uncle in the 1930 Census, it appears that he was not really her uncle as there is no family connection that can be found. My feeling is that they were listed as neice and uncle as this made their relationship sound more respectable - times then being what they were around these kinds of issues. Elsie lived with Frank in San Diego from around 1923 until her death in 1938. She spent many of her days at the San Diego Indoor Sports Club, which is located in the beautiful Mission Hills district. It has been in existence since the early 1900's and is still operating today. It was described as �providing social mixing for people with disabilities.� [Some interesting correlations with my own story came up during my research - Elsie's mother's maiden name was Louisa Hill - my name's Lynda Hill, and Elsie lived in San Diego with a man named Frank Baxter. My mother married a man named Ian Baxter when I was 7 and, at the age of 10 and 11, I wanted to change my name by deed poll to Baxter. Many years later, my mother married again, this time to a man named Frank. Also, Elsie's maternal grandmother was Helen Hill. When I gave birth to my daughter in 1983 - some years before I got into studying the Sabian Symbols and many years before investigating Elsie's family, my ex and I named our daughter Jessica Helen Hill, and wondered why we were giving her the name Helen. I well remember thinking that one day I'd know why we did it. When I found that Elsie's grandmother's name was Helen Hill, I was quite amazed. Further, Frank Baxter died after being hit by a bus in San Diego in 1948. It may sound a little flippant of me to bring it up, but I used to think that the first guy I was attracted to in my teens was not an attractive man, indeed he looked like he'd been 'hit by a bus'.... doesn't sound very charitable of me... it was more an expression of my not caring that he wasn't good looking, I was attracted to him regardless of his looks. ] Elsie become quite famous in San Diego through being a spiritualist medium. The following article appeared in the San Diego Union newspaper on March 16, 1938 edition; page 4 column 2. S.D. Shut-In Gets Air Trip to St. Louis; To See Old Friends - By Forest Waren (Elsie�s progressed Sun at this time was Scorpio 1: Tourists on a Sightseeing Bus.) "Perhaps the happiest young woman in San Diego is Elsie Wheeler, shut-in since she was three. That is, if she still is in town. The guest of Lester Prosser, New York, she and her nurse, Mrs. Pearl Calpin, were to take off from Lindbergh Field early today for St. Louis. Piloting his own plane, Prosser expected to fly to El Paso for tonight and proceed to St. Louis tomorrow morning. "I have seven hours in the air already," Miss Wheeler said last night. "I can't walk - but to fly above the clouds and see the sun shining makes me realize more than anything else how good God is. "When I had two trips to Glendale last year, I started an air log. What an entry I'll have for it now!" St. Louis is Miss Wheeler's old home. She will be the guest there of a long-time friend, Mrs. H.W. Faber, and will visit relatives and other friends, especially those who also are shut-ins and were her companions in the long period she spent in a hospital in that city. Coming to San Diego 14 years ago, Miss Wheeler joined the Indoor Sports Club and is one of its most enthusiastic members. When Mr. and Mrs Prosser heard that this cheerful, handicapped young woman was an aviation enthusiast, they planned to have her make the trip next time Prosser's business called him east. To make everything perfect for their guest, Mrs. Prosser spent yesterday shopping. Purchases included a spring wardrobe for Miss Wheeler.� From my research, it appears certain that Elsie did not make it to St. Louis or Norris City on that trip as there was a very destructive hurricane that hit St. Louis on the day she was supposed to arrive. Instead, she apparently spent the time with her neice, Suzanne Wakeford Steitz in Chicago. The following was a news story published in the San Diego Union newspaper on Nov. 27, 1938. Elsie Wheeler passes at 51 by FOREST WAREN Although confined to a wheelchair all her life, Miss Elsie Wheeler, 51, who died in a local hospital yesterday, had a beaten path to her door, made by men and women in all walks, who sought her advice, and particularly her perpetual smile. She was an ordained minister in the Spiritual faith. Elsie Wheeler's death cast a gloom over many hundreds of men, women and children, who knew her intimately. She was known best in the Indoor Sports club and there she moved about in her little wheelchair, spreading sunshine among other handicapped persons. Often she would seek to encourage a handicapped friend, who was not as bad off as herself. But she always said, "Don't give up -- there's lots to live for." HANDS AFFLICTED This heroic woman's hands were so badly afflicted with arthritis she could not shake hands with those who adored her. In making the rounds at Indoor Sports social affairs to greet members, I always touched her hand. I felt better for having touched her twisted hand; it was like mending something through my body and into my heart. She was just that type of person. At Elsie's cottage, 130 Washington St., bankers, lawyers and even the lonely gardener come to see her about their problems. Many were downhearted. They were seeking a way to see a brighter side of life. Elsie, sitting in her wheelchair, smilingly pointed the way. Many profited from her advice and counsel. TOOK PLANE TRIP A year ago, Elsie decided to take a long plane trip -- back to St. Louis and her native town, Norris City, Ill. It was a big undertaking but she knew she would meet new friends along the way who would help her if she needed help. She was gone several weeks. Her fellow shut-ins rejoiced with her because she had such a wonderful trip. Josephine Anderson, president of the local Indoor Sports club, said that her personal grief was softened because her dear friend Elsie told the doctor and nurses she wanted to go, as her sudden and unexpected attack was more than she could bear. She died at the age of 51 in San Diego on the 26th November 1938. At the time of her death, her progressed Sun was at Scorpio 2: A Broken Bottle and Spilled Perfume� she could stand the pain no longer and she left her physical body. The beauty and grace with which she lived her life is enhanced by the gift she has given to the world. Indeed, as Ralph Waldo Emerson said "To finish the moment, to find the journey's end in every step of the road, to live the greatest number of good hours, is wisdom". mine arrived 1848...
