871 Sidney Hobart built a flour and grist mill on block 8 in the original town center of Carthage near the old Mormon Jail and the Presbyterian Church. (The 'Mormon Jail' refers to the jail in Carthage where LDS founder Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum Smith were killed by a mob while imprisioned there in 1844 -Ed) The mill operated for many years but was finally torn down and a residence now stands on the site.

872 Sidney Smith Legate was born on 5 May 1830 in Leominster, Massachusetts. He was the son of Capt. William Morris Legate and Nancy Hadley Legate. Around 1850 Sidney moved to New Hampshire to teach school. There he met Hannah Wiggin Smith (b.1830) and they were married on 8 Apr 1852. They went on to have four children, Walter Scott (b.9 May 1853), Russell Smith (b.9 Sep 1855), May Augusta (b.9 Oct 1956), and Anna Louise (b.28 May 1862). Hannah died a few months after the birth of Anna on 7 Jul 1862. After his wife's death, Sidney disappeared from his children's lives for a while and they were brought up by various relatives. In 1873 we find Sidney working as a contractor and builder in Denison & Sherman, Texas. His son, Russell, joined him there as did his daughter, May in around 1876. He briefly lived in Fort Worth, Texas in 1877. On 10 May 1882 he married Catherine V. Turner in Chicago, Illioois. He returned to Texas to work as a builder because we find him back in Denison in 1887. He and Catherine eventually settled in Pinconning, Michigan where they bought a farm. They lived the remaining years of their life there. Sidney died on 29 May, 1913. (Information contributed by Lisa Brutsche Morrow) LEGATE, Sidney Smith (I85655)
 
873 Sidney's granddaughter, our mother May Hobart Zentmyer, told us that Sidney died from lung disease resulting from his exposure to flour dust, a hazard unrecognized at the time.

874 Simon first appeared in the record obtaining a job in 1650 at a mill in Ammerndorf, Bavaria owned at the time by Johann Preuss. This mill was built in 1607 and continues to operate under the ownership of Albert Stinzendörfer, whose family has owned it since 1878. We visited this mill and drank beer with the Stinzendörfer family in 2010. The mill owner's daughter, Maria Preuss, became pregnant by Simon, and the two married in 1654. This explains the atypical union between Catholic and Lutheran. No further traces of the couple can be found in Ammerndorf after 1657. The year after son Jacob was born, Simon and Maria bought a house at Hauptstrasse 33 in Unterschlauersbach, Bavaria. The purchase contract lists Simon's place of origin as 'Pfaffenhofen in Bavaria.' We visited this house in 2011 and met the owners, Herr Kolb and his wife. They were very kind, and gave us a photo of the original house which had been demolished in the 1990s. This photo of the original house was taken in 1906. PREUSS, Maria (I67770)

876 So, evidently after both of Samuel's wives died, he was unable or unwilling to care for all of his four children. In the 1900 US Census, only first-born John Ray Zentmeyer was living with him. Son Everett was living with Weir family, and son George was living with the Jay family. It is unclear where daughter Lillie was living, but she was not with Samuel. ZENTMEYER, Samuel (I1983)

882 Some of the following background information is excerpted from Hobart History and Genealogy, 1632-1956, compiled by Ethel Hobart Carothers. Later facts are supported by My Ancestors, by Irene Hobart, published in the Carthage Republican, February 8, 1933. Jonas Hobart's parents were Amos Hobart (born in 1774 in Lyme, Grafton County, New Hampshire, died in 1842 in or near Carthage, Hancock County, Illinois) and Keziah Marshall, nee Chase (born in 1772 in Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, died in 1843 in Hancock County, Illinois).
Amos' parents were Jonas Hobart, born in what was then Massachusetts on November 15, 1744, and Betty Kemp. After Jonas' brother, Isaac, was killed at Bunker Hill, Jonas joined the Continental Army and served for three years. At the Battle of Ticonderoga he was severely wounded in the cheek, but survived and collected a yearly pension of $96.00 for the rest of his life. He moved west to Illinois in 1823, died ten years later and was buried near Rushville in Schuyler County, Illinois.
Of Amos and Keziah's children, the eldest two, Jonas and Joshua C., were born in New Hampshire. The family moved to Essex, Chittenden County, Vermont, where four more children were born: Amasa, Anson, Norman, Mary Ann and Eliza Ann. They moved to Allegheny County, New York about 1816. Amasa and Mary Ann did not live to adulthood. The remaining four came to Illinois.
In addition to Jonas' family, a number of Norman's children are also buried at Webster Cemetery.

883 Some researchers believe that the James, John, and Mark in the 1810 census record were brothers, which is likely, and that their father was the Thomas Marlow who died in Iredell County in 1811, which is unlikely given that none of the three were named in Thomas' Will.

 
MARLOW, John (I3231)
 
884 Sometime after 1880 and by 1900, he was admitted to the Iowa State Hospital for the Insane in Mt Pleasant, Henry Co. This is most likely where he died in 1916 as he is listed as an inmate here in the 1910 U.S. Census and again in 1915 in the Iowa State Census. ZENTMEYERS, David Conoway (I1978)
 
885 Sometime during the 1870's Charles S and Martha Kiddoo Zentmire went to western Iowa, and in 1877 they moved to Rice County, Kansas. The move there was made in a covered wagon. They lived on a farm until June 1880 when an epidemic of typhoid took the lives of Charles and Martha in Valley Twp, Rice Co. Their grandmother and an uncle came to Kansas to get their 3 small girls and took them back to family in Mercer Co, Illinois.  ZENTMIRE, Charles Sylvester (I2860)

888 Son of the Harriett Hawk and the late Harry Zentmyer, he is survived by his wife, Edna M. Zentmyer, son, Larry C. Zentmyer of New York City; daughter, Saundra Blair of Hagerstown; sisters, Mrs. Catherine Footen of Westernport, Md., and Miss Mabel Zentmyer of Philadelphia.

He was assistant foreman at Pangborn Corp., where he had been employed for 32 years.

897 Sudden Death in Clay

Mathias Meiley, a well-known resident of Clay, died on Sunday quite suddenly. He was seated on the porch at his home when he was stricken with apoplexy. Dr. J.Y. Kline was summoned, but was unable to save his life, and death ensued in about half an hour after the attack. Deceased was in his 88th year. He was a former resident of Lexington, and in earlier life was a bricklayer by trade. He is survived by his second wife and fifteen children. Five children are dead. Deceased was a member of the Lutheran Church. The funeral took place to-day [sic] at 10 o'clock at the Brickerville Emanuel's Lutheran church.
