Note: RESEARCH STANDARD APPLIED Researched by Timothy J. Barron, updated April 21, 2021 Andrew Long and Jane Nevan are my paternal third great grandparents. Andrew was initially identified via the death record of daughter Margaret. Based on the application of recognized genealogical standards of proof, the family structure of Andrew Long and Jane Nevan is sufficiently established beyond any reasonable doubt. The basis for the family structure beings with the census records. This is followed by the last will and testament of Jane, which names all seven of her children. The family structure is also demonstrated horizontally through multiple records of their children, which identify and name their siblings. This has been subsequently supported with the additional interlocking records and documentation listed further below. Based on the application of recognized standards for DNA evidence, the family structure of Andrew Long and Jane Nevan has also been corroborated with DNA matches, which are documented further below. 1825 BIRTH OF ANDREW LONG Researched by Timothy J. Barron, updated April 18, 2021 Andrew Long was born circa 1825 in Germany. The approximate year and location were determined from various records listed below, which provide wide variations on the year. There is a discrepancy about the country of birth for Andrew, as there are records indicating both France and Germany. One possible explanation is that the answer was a relative, and based on country and territorial borders of the time, such as resulting from the Franco-Prussian War. 1827 BIRTH OF JANE NEVAN Researched by Timothy J. Barron, updated April 18, 2021 Jane Nevan was born circa 1827 in Ireland. The approximate year and location were determined from various records listed below. Her maiden name is listed as Nevan on her death record, listed as Nevins on a record pertaining to her son Robert Long, listed as Nevin on a record pertaining to her daughter Cora Long, and listed as Schmidt on a record pertaining to her son Robert Long. The record listing Schmidt could simply be in error, or another possibility is that she remarried after the death of Andrew. Her death record does not list a forename of her father, and lists the forename of her mother as Ann, and that both were born in Ireland. Her birth location is listed as Ireland on most records below. It should noted that the birth location is listed as Scotland on records pertaining to her children Cora, John, Katherine, and Margaret. The location of Ireland is assumed to be correct, as there is a greater possibility that the census information was provided by Andrew or her. 1849 MARRIAGE OF ANDREW LONG AND JANE NEVAN Researched by Timothy J. Barron, updated April 18, 2021 Andrew Long and Jane Nevan were married circa 1849 in Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA. The approximate year and location are assumed based on the the birth of their first child. 1850 CENSUS OF THE ANDREW LONG FAMILY Researched by Timothy J. Barron, updated April 20, 2021 The U.S. Census enumerated on July 29, 1850 shows the family of Andrew Long living as the second of two boarding families in the household of Henry Hales in Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA. The surname is hard to read due to faded ink, and does appear to be written as Lowe, but might be possibly written as Long. The census taker transposed all of the information between Andrew and Jane. It was reasonable to conclude this is the same couple based on the forenames, his occupation as a boatman, the countries of birth, and the 1855 census indicating that they resided in Lockport since circa 1848. The following information was transcribed from the actual document, which was obtained from the Ancestry website: “Jane Lowe, age 23, male, white, occupation is boatman, born in France, cannot read or write; Andrew Lowe, age 19, female, white, born in Ireland.” 1855 CENSUS OF THE ANDREW LONG FAMILY Researched by Timothy J. Barron, updated April 18, 2021 The New York State Census enumerated on Friday, June 22, 1855 shows the family of Andrew Long living in Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA.

Barron, updated April 18, 2021 Andrew Long was wounded in action at the battle of Cold Harbor in Cold Harbor, Hanover, Virginia, USA on Friday, June 3, 1864, and was crippled in his left leg and hand. The Battle of Cold Harbor was one of the final battles of the Overland Campaign of Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, and is one of the bloodiest and most lopsided battles of the Civil War. Thousands of Union soldiers were killed or wounded in an assault against the fortified positions of Confederate Army. 1865 CENSUS OF THE ANDREW LONG FAMILY Researched by Timothy J. Barron, updated April 18, 2021 The New York State Census enumerated on Wednesday, June 21, 1865 shows the family of Andrew Long living in the household of M.B. Williams in Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA. Andrew is listed as being in the Army, and it is assumed that he was away based on his dates of service. It should be noted that none of their children are listed.

Barron, updated April 18, 2021 The following appeared in the Lockport Daily Journal newspaper from Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA, on Saturday, March 2, 1867. "Strange Case. A Kidnapped Child in Greenfield Township, Pa., Virtually Held in Slavery. She States That Her Father’s Name is John Lawn, Living at Niagara Falls. From the Erie Gazette. We are reliably informed that a family living in the north-western part of Greenfield township, in this county, have in their possession a girl about thirteen years of age, whom they have probably kidnapped from some other section of the country, and now hold her as a sort of chatel - forcing her to perform a good deal of hard labor, treating her with unkindness and refusing to allow her any communication whatever with other people in that vicinity or elsewhere. She is described as being middling fleshy, through rapidly breaking down from severe usage, good-looking, dark auburn hair, dark blue eyes, with a slight scar under the left eye, and is called by the family with whom she lives, ‘Mag." Considerable interest is felt in the neighborhood in regard to the unfortunate little girl, but the family guard her so carefully that no information whatever can be elicited. One gentleman who began to question the girl was immediately set upon and driven out of the house by members of said family." "We are also informed, that about a year and a half ago, an advertisement was published in a Buffalo paper, offering a reward for information about a girl, answering almost exactly to the appearance of this girl - who had been stolen from her home in the vicinity of Niagara Falls. There are many circumstances which lead to the belief that this girl may be the one referred to in that advertisement. We hope our Buffalo exchanges will make note of the case, and call it also to the attention of the papers published in the vicinity of the Falls." "To particularize still more, we may say that the family alluded to consist of a man and his wife and one child - that the woman has for years made occasional trips east and west to sell bead work - and that nearly two years ago, as mentioned, she returned from one of these trips with this girl in her possession. If the girl was stolen, as surmised - and subjected to very bad treatment - it is a work of christian charity to assist in her redemption, and possibly in her return to a comfortable home. Our exchanges may do a good work by alluding to this case. We shall endeavor to keep our readers thoroughly posted if any new developments occur." "Since writing the above, we have conversed with several of the leading citizens of Greenfield township, and find that the case is worse than we previously understood. On several occasions the girl has been inhumanly used, compelled to go half naked, and exposed to great hardships. We would related several incidents which have come under the observation of various residents, but forbear at present, for reasons which may hereafter explained. To one person the girl has stated that her father’s name is John Lawn, and that he lives in the neighborhood of Niagara Falls." "If the information we give reaches the parents or friends of the unfortunate girl, we advise an immediate application for a judicial inquiry, as the disposition of the family referred to is represented as terribly vicious. The tell various stories in regard to where their protege came from; no two which agree. The circumstances of the case, as stated to us, would seem to call for immediate action in behalf of the girl, upon the part of the local authorities in Greenfield. This would appear to be warranted in both a moral and legal point of view." The following appeared in the Lockport Daily Journal newspaper from Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA, on Tuesday Evening, March 5, 1867. "The Kidnapped Child, Supposed to be the Child of Parents Residing in Lockport. It may be remembered that in Saturday’s paper we published, from the Erie (Pa.) Gazette, a touching account of a little girl about thirteen years of age, held virtually in a state of slavery, and cruelly treated, by a family living near Greenfield in that county; that the girl was called ‘Mag,’ forced to perform a large amount of labor, and maltreated in various ways. This article reached the parents of a kidnapped child residing in Lockport, which seems to be identified in this description, and gives at once pain and hope to the afflicted parents. Andrew Long, of this city, while in the service of his country as a soldier, had a girl of the description alluded to, even to the name, kidnapped at Niagara Falls, in the fall of 1864. The father was in the war and the mother and the girl were both employed at the Falls, but at different places. The family with which the girl lived and the girl were suddenly missing, and have not been heard of since by the parents of the girl or their friends, until the appearance of this article. The parents and acquaintances knowing the circumstances, confidently believe that the ‘Mag’ described by the Gazette, is no other than Maggie, the daughter of Andrew Long. According to the Gazette the ‘Mag’ so cruelly treated, it was supposed might have been obtained at Niagara Falls. Maggie was kidnapped at Niagara Falls. The color of the hair, eyes, etc., agree. Means will be taken to ascertain the party, and obtain the girl, if indeed she is a lost child of our city." The following appeared in the Lockport Daily Journal newspaper from Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA, on Saturday, March 16, 1867. "The Enslavement of a White Girl. The little girl detained and brutally treated by a family named Smith, in Greenfield Township, Pa., has been discovered to be the daughter of Andrew Long, who lives near Lockport. The Smiths have been arrested. The father was a soldier, and had four children, of whom Margaret, the child at Greenfield, was one. While he was in the army, his wife took two of the children to Suspension Bridge, and left Margaret with one John Hussey, who ran away, and afterwards sent for his wife, who took the girl to Pennsylvania, as Mr. Long found out upon inquiry. - Erie (Pa.) Gazette." "It will be remembered that this journal was the first to ventilate this matter, so far as to bring out the name of the locality of the little girl alluded to. The secret came out this way: We Published, from the Erie Gazette, a statement detailing the heartless cruelty being practiced on a little girl named Maggie, in Greenfield, Pa. The article caught the eye of the afflicted parents in this city, who were ignorant of the whereabouts of their little girl. From the landlord of Andrew Long we obtained and published full particulars of the manner in which the little girl, daughter of his tenant, was kidnapped and ferreted away. It will be gratifying news to our readers to learn from above article that the little Maggie is about to be restored to her home." The following appeared in the Niagara Falls Gazette newspaper from Niagara Falls, Niagara County, New York, USA on Wednesday Morning, March 20, 1867. "The Kidnapping Case. The little girl detained and brutally treated by a family named Smith, in Greenfield Township, Pa., has been discovered to be the daughter of Andrew Long, who lives near Lockport.

So says the Lockport Journal." While Andrew Long was in the U.S. Army during the Civil War, his daughter Mary Ann Long lived with the family of George Steele, as stated in the newspaper articles below and shown on the 1865 census. The article mentions that Mary was pregnant in the fall of 1866, which means she would have given birth circa early 1867. Any further information about this child has not yet been determined. The following appeared in the Lockport Daily Journal newspaper from Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA, on Tuesday Evening, May 28, 1867. "Niagara County Circuit Court. Hon. Noah Davis, Presiding. Tuesday, May 28th, 1867. Andrew Long vs. George Steele. Farnell & Brazee for plaintiff; Holmes & Fitts for defendant. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to secure damages for the alleged seduction of his daughter by the defendant. The facts of the case are briefly as follows: The plaintiff, Mr. Long, is a German, a resident of Lockport, and the defendant, Mr. Steele, a farmer, over sixty years of age, living in the town of Newfane. In the summer of 1861 Mr. Long went to the war, leaving his wife and five children, who some months after, being in indigent circumstances, sought refuge at the poorhouse. In March 1862, Mrs. Steele, the wife of the defendant, went to the poorhouse and took Mary Long, a girl of about twelve years of age, home with her and adopted her, or at least kept her in the family. Mary remained in the family until the fall of 1866, when it was ascertained that she was enciente. During the summer a boy named Ferdinand Horning, age fifteen years, had been in the employ of Mr. Steele for about three months, with whom Mary, it is stated, was on rather intimate acquaintance, as well as with one or two boys in the neighborhood. According to the evidence for the defense, when questioned as to who was the the father of the child, she repeatedly stated that the boy Horning was; but that she afterwards denied that he was, and said that Mr. Steele was the father. Mr. Steele, the defendant, has been a resident of Newfane for some twenty-seven years, has hitherto borne an excellent character, and been much respected, and those who know him intimately will not believe that he was guilty of doing such an act. The defense claims that the case is one of conspiracy, to extort money from Mr. Steele, as the boy Horning had no property, and therefore no damages could be obtained from him. The case is still on trial." The following appeared in the Buffalo Daily Courier newspaper from Buffalo, Erie County, New York, USA on Thursday Morning, May 30, 1867. "Court of Oyer and Terminer. The trial on the carpet today is one for seduction. It it is an action brought by a father for the seduction of a daughter! Andrew Long is a German residing in this city, and in the spring of 1861, went to the war, leaving his wife and children behind. After his departure, his family were compelled to go to the County Home, and some time after this Mrs. Geo. Steele, wife of the defendant, took Mary Long out, for the purpose of taking her in the the family. She remained with Mrs. Steele about four years, and in the fall of 1866, it was discovered she was enciente. There was a young man living with them, and Mary has said that this young man was the father of the child, but she now claims that Mr. Steele, over sixty years of age, is the father. Mr. Steele is a farmer residing in the town of Newfane for the last thirty years, bearing an excellent reputation, and probably the action was brought to obtain money. The case is still in progress." The following appeared in the Lockport Daily Journal newspaper from Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA on Saturday Evening, November 2, 1867. It should be noted that there are not facts to confirm this is the same Andrew Long.

A Woman Beaten and Stabbed by a Man. Last evening a woman named Margaret Russell, of Buffalo, who was working on a canal boat belonging to John Gerrity and Andrew Long, in the capacity of a cook, was outrageously beaten about the body and stabbed in the neck by John Gerrity, nearing the canning factory at Carpenter’s quarry. The woman states that she hired out with Andrew Long at Syracuse, as cook on a canal boat for the purpose of getting to Buffalo where she lives. Yesterday morning the boat was tied up in Lower Town, but during the day it was towed above the locks to Carpenter’s quarry at tied up. She says that Gerrity was beastly intoxicated yesterday afternoon and was abusing every person working on the boat, pelting the drivers with stones and swearing like a trooper. She claims she started to leave the boat in the afternoon and wanted to get $1, but this being refused, she was persuaded to remain on the boat by Mr. Long who said she would not be injured by Gerrity. About six o’clock Gerrity who had been off the boat, came on, and on going down into the cabin commenced abusing her and calling her everything but a decent woman, and finally ordered her to leave the boat. Becoming scared she fled up the stairs and went off the boat. Gerrity followed closely after and coming up behind the woman he gave her a kick which knocked her down senseless. What Gerrity further done to her she was unable to state, but shortly afterwards hew as seen going up the canal alone. The woman was subsequently found lying upon the ground with a gash about an inch in depth and length in her throat, from which the blood was trickling down. Word was brought to the Police Station and Officer Mahar hastened thither, conveyed the woman to the Revere House, where she is now stopping. An examination revealed the fact that she had received a bad bruise on her thigh and right leg. Gerrity was arrested about ten o’clock last night on Main street, and taken to the Police Headquarters, where he was locked up to await an examination. The two drivers are also confined in the Police Station as witnesses. 1879 NEWSPAPER MENTION OF ANDREW LONG Researched by Timothy J.

Andrew was buried on Friday, June 25, 1880 in Cold Springs Cemetery in Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA. The following appeared in the Lockport Daily Journal newspaper from Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA on Thursday Evening, June 24, 1880. "The Erie’s Latest Victim. Mr. Andrew Long Drowned in the State Ditch Last Night. The Body Recovered. Coroner’s Inquest to be Held. Funeral, Etc., Etc. About half-past ten o’clock last night word was received in this city that Mr. Andrew Long, captain of the boat ‘W. W. Holmes,’ had been drowned in the canal at Hitchins’ bridge, about two miles west of this city. The facts of the case, so far as can be ascertained, are substantially as follows." "Mr. Long pass through this city about half-past nine o’clock, bound for Buffalo. He was driving, while his son John acted as steersman. As the boat neared Hitchins’ bridge, the latter heard his father scream, ‘Oh Johnny,’ and a second after he heard a splash as if some one had fallen into the water. A few seconds later the driver on the eastward bound boat said to John Long that his driver had fallen into the water. Mr. Long steered the boat to the tow path, and leaping to the shore, ran to the spot, where he supposed his father had fallen into the canal. Word was quickly brought to this city of the said affair, and a number of persons repaired at once to the place. The old scow at the head of the locks was towed to Hitchins’ bridge and the work of searching for the body was commenced with grappling irons by J. Russell, Ed. McCarty, John Maloney, T. Hill, Geo. Jones [the husband of Andrew’s daughter Margaret] and John Long [this is his son]. The body was recovered about 2 o’clock this morning and floated to the head of the locks, where it was taken from the water by the direction of Coroner Tryon and removed to the home of deceased, on Erie street, in this city, where it nows awaiting interment." "How Mr. Long came to fall into the canal is not known, but it is generally supposed that he was caught by the tow-line on the east bound line and dragged into the water. This morning the following named persons were empaneled as a Coroner’s jury: R. D. Ashford, foreman; C. A. Murphy, T. C. McGuern, S. Olin Seager, J. M. Ives, C. E. Lackor. Coroner Tryon, after the jury had viewed the remains, adjourned the inquest to five o’clock this afternoon, at the American Hotel. This was done to allow the Coroner an opportunity to summon witnesses in the case." "The deceased was upwards of fifty years of age. He served three years in the late and was a member of the the 8th Heavy N. Y. Artillery. He leaves a wife and four grown up children, three daughters and one son, all of whom are married, to mourn his death. Mr. Long was a pensioner. The funeral services will be held at the late residence of the deceased at eleven o’clock to-morrow morning, conducted by Rev. W. P. Hellings." According to multiple sources, Rev. W. P. Hellings was originally from Germantown, Pennsylvania, USA, and in 1877 came to Lockport to head the Lockport Baptist Church. The following appeared in the Rochester Daily Union and Advertiser newspaper from Rochester, Monroe County, New York, USA, on Friday Evening, June 25, 1880. "Drowned in the Canal. The Captain of the Canal Boat W. H. Holmes Drowned. Particulars of the Affair. Yesterday’s Lockport Union says that on Wednesday night about 10 o’clock Andrew Long, of No. 4 Erie street, Lockport, a boatman, met his death under the following circumstances: Mr. Long had been a boatman for a number of years, and recently has been captain of his own boat, the W. H. Holmes. Mr. Long was on his way from Rochester to Buffalo for a load for New York, his boat being light. On reaching the locks in that city last night Mrs. Long left the boat, to remain there until its return from Buffalo. There were on the boat at the time of the accident, Andrew Long, his son John, his wife, and the drivers. Just before reaching Hitchins’s bridge, about two miles west of the city, Mr. Long left the boat to drive, leaving his son John as steersman. Shortly after the towline of a boat going east drew Mr. Long into the water. He cried out ‘John,’ and that was the last heard of the unfortunate man. His son leaped at once to the towing path, and attempted to locate the spot where his father fell, but was unable to do so. The driver of the down boat never stopped his team at all, but kept on, even after Mrs. John Long ran after him and begged him to come back and point out the spot where her father-in-law went down, but he would not. John Long being unable to find the body, came to this city and succeeded in raising the following boat crews, who went back with him: Joshua Russell, Edward McCarthy, John Maloney, Thomas Hill, and Geo. Jones [the husband of Andrew’s daughter Margaret], who, in company with John Long, succeeded in finding the body about 2 o’clock this morning. It was brought to this city, prepared for burial, put in the ice box, and conveyed to the late residence of deceased, where it was surrounded by the grief-stricken wife and children." The following appeared in the Lockport Daily Journal newspaper from Lockport, Niagara County, New York, USA on Friday Evening, June 25, 1880. "Inquest Held. The Coroner’s jury empaneled in the case of Andrew Long, assembled in room B at the American hotel yesterday afternoon at five o’clock, pursuant to adjournment. The only witnesses sworn in the case were Mr. and Mrs. John Long, Ira Maxson and Dr. R. T. Paine. From the evidence of the first three witnesses the jury became satisfied that the deceased met his death by accidentally falling into the canal, and rendered a verdict in accordance with this belief."

List of the Dead Soldiers Where Graves Were Decorated on Memorial Day. Below will be found a list of the soldiers whose graves were decorated by details from Sprout Post, G.A.R. [Grand Army of the Republic] on Memorial day. The members of the Post have discovered that there are other graves of soldiers which have been omitted or not discovered, because there was no mark or inscription on the headstones to distinguish the graves as those of soldiers. The Post, therefore, especially desires that the relatives and friends of all such deceased soldiers whose graves are thus overlooked, will notify them through the adjutant, W. A. Ives, of such omission, and the graves will be placed upon the list and distinguished by an iron marker hereafter. It is hoped that this matter will be attended to by those interested without delay. Another item worthy of attention is the fact that some soldiers have no headstones above their graves, and by an act of congress they are entitled to them, and can obtain them free from the government through the G.A.R., if applications are made by friends to the Grand Army posts. This is another matter which Sprout Post of this city desires attention called to.
