BUCKMAN, ?Date of Gen. Lane withdrawal to Ft. Lincoln
71532.734@compuserve.com Nan Wolf
Sun, 3 Aug 1997 17:34:04 -0400
My ancestor, Clement Evermon BUCKMAN, arrived in Bourbon Co. from KY
in 1857 with his own young family. His daughter mentioned in her memoirs:
"Here the house was made of logs cut from a forest nearby of hickory and
walnut. It was built near the bank of the Marmaton River. While this
river did not run all the time, there was one deep place where there was
always plenty of water. Here we could always find fish to try our luck in
fishing. Those were the "good old days" when there was plenty of game:
deer, wild turkeys, prairie chickens, quail, and gray squirrels. My father
and brother Andrew were very fond of hunting, so we were always well
supplied."
On Oct. 10, 1861, Clement E. BUCKMAN joined the Co. K, 3 Regt Kansas
Vols. He was in Company "I" 6th Reg't Kansas Cavalry by the time he was
mustered out 10 months later due to illness - at Ft. Scott.. He furnished
his horse and equipment and his due mileage at mustering out was 20 miles.
My question is this - AT WHAT DATE IN 1861 DID GEN. LANE PULL HIS
FORCES OUT OF FT. SCOTT LEAVING THE AREA OPEN TO THE ADVANCING CONFEDERATE
FORCES OF GEN. RAINS? He left only the cavalry at Ft. Scott. Was it
during this period that my ancestor joined the service - in order to help
protect the county that had been abandoned by Gen. Lane?
I know that Clemant Buckman left Bourbon Co. for the West in 1864 in a
wagon train that included a brother, J. J. Buckman and family, a daughter
Susan, and her husband, John Teague and two neighbors. From his
daughters memoirs (narrated verbally to her daughter) in 1933:
"What excitement there was as the wagons began lining up for the
long journey. The members of our family - father and mother, Andrew,
Josephine, Sarah, Margaret and Clem.. My married sister, Susan, and her
husband, John Teague, (with horse drawn wagon) ; my father's brother , John
(Uncle Cook) Buckman and his family; two families of our near neighbors and
a lot of other emigrants who joined us for protection from the Indians and
for company. There were nearly one hundred wagons in all., A few of these
were horse-drawn, mostly ox teams. Then, there were the loose cattle and
horses to be driven.
(continuing her memoirs) "Any group, in order to progress, must have
a leader, so father was chosen Captain and the train was on its way. A
number of neighbors accompanied us on horseback for several days - helping
to get the stock used to being driven on the trail, and to bid us goodby
and Good Luck. Father's aim was Arizona. Here he could take up land and,
with his cattle and horses, he could soon have the home he wished for."
QUESTION: FROM WHERE WOULD THIS WAGON TRAIN HAVE LEFT? Ft. Scott?
(It had to be close enough to their Bourbon home territory for the
neighbors to accompany them for several days. ) ARE THEIR EXISTING
NEWSPAPERS FROM THIS TIME THAT MIGHT HAVE MENTIONED THIS MANY PEOPLE
LEAVING THE AREA - AND WHY? About 2/3 of the way through her trail
narrative, the daughter mentions, "Some of our train, having heard of the
marvelous country in Oregon, had chosen that as their goal. Bidding us
good-bye, there was a parting of the ways and they headed out the Northern
trail to Oregon, leaving our train much smaller to continue on our
journey." I believe that she suddenly remembered this and inserted it here
when it actuallly happened much earlier on the trail.
I would love to hear from anyone who has an opinion about my questions
above or who had family in Bourbon Co. about this time.

STRATTON

07:44:23 1997
I am interested in Fort Scott city history beginning in 1855. I have
found that my ancestor GABRIEL MCLEAN ( GM) STRATTON purchased one of the
officier quarter's buildings at Fort Scott. I have since then found that
he had a daughter who was born in Fort Scott in 1857. This family's
eldest daughters were baptized Catholic at the Osage Mission. I'd like
to find the record of the daughter ROSE STRATTON born in 1857. My
question is: What were the Catholic missions/churches that were located
in Fort Scott in 1857? Would there be any schools established and are
there any records available?

Children: Marie Elizabeth SHERROW
Born: October 31, 1898
Died: October 16, 1899
Children: William Edward SHERROW
Born: January 1, 1896
Died: ?
Married: ?
Children: Lee Roy SHERROW
Born: August 26, 1904
Died: ?
Married?
Father is: Harve SHERROW (Born June 30, 1871 in Springfield, MO)
Mother is: Addline A. KEITH (Born May 31, 1869, in White Cloud, NE - which sort
of exists today)
The problem I have is that I do not know when Harve and Addline were married. I
am only to assume that they were married before Margaret was born, but then
again, who knows! I only assume (again) that the other children were also born
in Fort Scott, KS. I know that Margaret died in 1966 in Emmett, ID (that's my
hometown).
My address is: 827 Burkett, Jackson,TN 38301
Most of the information that may be able to help have a cut off date that ends before either one of my relatives were born/died.
