The Children

John Howard Shively And Alla Rae Merrill :Family In Fillmore County, Nebraska

 

Sarah Irene Shively

  Thank you to Candace Medeiros who gifted the very rare photos of Sarah Irene Shively and Ralph Donald Shively who were killed during a cyclone in 1908 in Fillmore County, NE. They were the children of John Howard Shively. Rose Marie Hulse who lives in Exeter, Nebraska did research in Fillmore County, Nebraska for the Shively researchers.  She found information on John Howard Shively who was a son of James Shively and Susan Williamson of Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania.  James and Susan are found in West Township on the 1850 and 1860 Huntingdon County, PA census records.  On the 1880 census they are listed in Logan Township, Huntingdon County, PA. 

John H. Shively was married in Fillmore County, Nebraska on 28-February-1892 to Alla Merrill.  Alla was born in Fillmore County and was the daughter of William Merrill and Sarah Mercer.  John and Alla are listed in the Chelesa Pricinct on the 1900 Fillmore County census.  On June 5, 1908 a “cyclone” or tornado hit Fillmore County destroying the home of John and Alla.  Their two young children, Ralph Donald age 5 and Sarah Irene age 9, were killed in the storm.  Miss Lulu Schmidt, age 18, who was employed by the Shively family also expired.  Their story can best be told from the following information that Rose Marie Hulse found.

Ralph Donald Shively

From the Nebraska Signal, Geneva, Fillmore County, Nebraska Friday June 12, 1908, page 1 is the following account of the storm:

Death in Storm

Cyclonic Wind Kills Two Near Shickley and Three Near Geneva

Only Few People Injured

Some Remarkable Escapes From Death and Injury Reported-Estimated Property

Loss $100,000

Dead Near Shickley

The Injured

Mr. and Mrs. John Shively, parents of Irene and Ralph, very badly

Edward Fussell, cuts, bruises and exposure, recovering

Henry Bohlen, severe bruises and exposure, recovering

The four members of the John Shively family, Lulu Schmidt and Ed Fussell were in the Shively home on the Mrs. Jane Turner farm three-fourths of a mile due west of the Geneva courthouse.  Henry Bohlen was at his home near Martland.  No other injuries of a serious character were reported in this county.

       Shively Home Destroyed - Three Members of Family Killed, Two in Critical Condition And Another Less Seriously Hurt

At 11:15 last Friday night the ringing of the fire bell aroused the people of Geneva. Word had come that the John H. Shively family, residing on the Mrs. Jane Turner farm three-fourths of a mile due west of the Geneva courthouse, had been killed or injured and their home destroyed in a cyclone.  Many citizens hurried out in every available conveyance and gave every assistance possible.  John Shively and his wife were found badly injured and in a critical condition.  Their nine-year-old daughter Irene was dead and their only other child, five-year-old Ralph, was dying from his injuries.  Miss Lulu Schmidt, employed in the home, was dead.  Ed Fussell, employed on the farm, was seriously injured.

Mr. and Mrs. Shively and Ralph were brought to Geneva to the home of Mrs. Shively’s brother, Orlie Merrill.  Ralph died there Saturday night.  The remains of Miss Schmidt were brought to the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Schmidt Sr. of Geneva.  The body of Irene Shively was taken to Nicholas’ undertaking rooms.  Mr. Fussell was brought to the home of O.A. Beals in Geneva.  The funeral of Miss Schmidt took place at 10 a.m. Monday from the Catholic church and her body was interred in the Catholic cemetery.  The funeral of the two Shively children took place at 3 p.m. Monday from the Methodist church and their bodies were laid to rest in the Geneva cemetery.

Geneva people noticed the gathering of ominous storm clouds in the southwest last Friday evening and some sought safety in caves and cellars, but the storm remained too far away to bring serious apprehension to many Geneva people.  Probably no one in Geneva, unless on the west side, heard the roaring storm when it was crushing the buildings on the Turner farm and destroying the Shively family in its progress northward.  Henry Muhlenburg and family live a quarter of a mile west of where Shively’s lived.  About 9 or a little after they sought shelter in a cave.  After the cyclone passed they came out to see what damage had been wrought.  The flashes of lightning did not reveal any buildings where the Shivelys had lived and Mr. Muhlenburg and Irvie Zink, who was employed at Muhlenberg’s, took a lantern and went over to Shively’s to see if anything had gone wrong.  They found everything on the place destroyed and the members of the family probably dead or dying.  Irvie Zink came on to town for help, leaving Mr. Muhlenburg to give what succor he could.

The storm struck about 9:30 as nearly as the time can be calculated.  It was accompanied by a cloudburst that rendered walking well nigh impossible.  The road was strewn with telephone poles and wires and all sorts of wreckage.  One man had the forethought to put a pair of nippers in his buggy and he said he cut twelve telephone wires on his way out.  The water was so high around the Shively place that those not killed by the storm were in danger of drowning since everybody who had been in the house was too much injured to keep out of the water.

The Shivelys had seen the early approach of the storm and had gone into their cave once.  They thought the danger over and returned to the house.  Some members of the family undressed and went to bed.  When the cyclone actually came it found them unprepared.

  (The story continues but for sake of space this tells their involvement with the cyclone. Rose Hulse also sent a second article on the storm from the Nebraska Signal, Friday June 19, 1908.  This article is entitled “Work of Storm – General Review of the Course of the June 5 Cyclonic Wind”.)

   John and Alla did have one more child, Welcome Shively, who was born ca. 1911.  Welcome married Maurice McAvoy.

Additional information on John Shively is found in his obituary taken rom a Geneva, Nebraska local paper dated Thursday May 3, 1962:

Fannie J. Loyd (Lloyd) Who Lived In Jackson and Marshall County, Alabama And Hamilton County, Tennessee

 

Fannie Loyd Hodges Death Certificate

  The following request for information was received: “Looking for info on a Frank Shively who married Fannie Lloyd around 1890. My grandmother was Flossie Annie Lee Shively. When my grandmother was very small, Frank left never to return. We always thought he was from Michigan. Don’t understand why he would have been in Alabama in 1890”. 

Fannie J. Loyd (Lloyd) was born on 27-Jul-1877 in Jackson County, AL and died on 14-Nov-1957 in Chattanooga, Hamilton County, TN. She was the daughter of Andrew Jackson Lloyd  (born 1838) and Amanda “Mandy” Swafford (1839-1922). A marriage license for H. F. Shirey (Shivey) to marry A. J. Loyd was issued in Marshall County, AL on 10-Dec-1890. Fannie married 2nd to Hugh H. Hodges on 26-Aug-1902 in Marshall County, AL. 

On the 1900 Wrights Precinct No. 23, Marshall County, AL census is the household of Andrew J. Loyd born Jan-1838 age 62, wife Manda B. born 1842 age 57, daughter Dora born Apr-1883 age 17, daughter Fannie J. Shively born Aug-1875 age 24 divorced and grand daughter Flossie A. born 1891 age 8.  From this information Fannie would have been about 16 years old when Flossie was born.  

The following newspaper obituary for Fannie J. Loyd Shively Hodges was found in the Chattanooga News Free Press, Saturday, November 16, 1957, Page 2, Column 1:

Mrs. Fannie Hodges

Mrs. Fannie Hodges, 80, of 2215 Bennett Ave., died Thursday in a local hospital.

Survivors include two daughters, Miss Lucille Mitchell, Chattanooga, and Mrs. Maude Schuster, Charlotte, N. C.; two step-daughters, Mrs. J. R. Gant and Mrs. J. B.

Interment will be in Union Cemetery at Woodville. The body is at National Funeral Home.

US Bureau Land Managment Tract Books In Alabama

A search for information on the name H. Frank Shively was limited.  The following might be a possible clues to the identity of Mr. Shively.  From the research of Terry Gosselin: “While doing research for  a Gertrude Shively, I found some interesting info. I believe that Horace Shively died somewhere between 1890 and 1892, probably in Emmet County, MI. There is a Michigan birth christening for a Veroqua Shively in 1890, daughter of Horace and Margaret Shively. By the 1900 census, Veroqua is listed as a stepdaughter of Samuel and Margaret Capp. Samuel’s marriage to Margaret Brill Shively happened in 1892, with her name listed as Shirley in the Ancestry index, but looks like Shively to me.”

Horace Franklin Shively married Margaret Brill in Michigan.  They had 3 children: Bertha Shively born 1879, Gertrude Grace Shively born 1885 and Veroqua E. Shively born 1890. 

From the Alabama marriage license H. F. Shirey was authorized to marry Fannie Loyd in December 1890. Veroqua E. Shively was born on 4-Aug-1890 which most likely would mean H F. Shively was in Michigan at the end of 1889. Listed on  the 1880 Battle Creek, Calhoun County, MI census in the household of J. M. Holes age 65 is boarder H. F. Shively age 23 (a locomotive Engineer), wife Eliza age 21 and daughter Bertha age1.  

There is an entry in the United States Bureau of Land Management Tract Books in Alabama for Horace F. Shively with date of 1-Nov-1899 which says was cancelled. The entry for Horace F. Shively is located on the lower right quadrant of the page. This was found on the Family Search website. This is the only record that could be found that tied Horace F. Shively to Alabama.

From the 1880 Calhoun County, MI census above, H. F. Shively is listed as a locomotive engineer. Is it possible that Horace F. Shively while working for the railroad disappeared from Michigan and established a new relationship in Alabama?

Another Crank

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5 -- Prof. J. W. Shively, who calls himself the "true Messiah", arrived in this city Thursday and took a room on Sixth street. He at once addressed a letter to Judge Cox, Judge Porter and others connected with the Guiteau trial, to convince them of the fallacy of Guiteau's alleged inspirations. In his letter to Judge Cox he demanded to be put upon the stand to confront Guiteau and tell the court where and how to find this awful deity of the Republican party. The police were notified and this morning arrested him. He will be sent to the insane asylum.

Special Dispatch to the Kansas City Journal

SARATOGA, N.Y., Dec. 5 --Prof. J. W. Shively, of Saratoga, the "great Messiah" crank, arrested at Washington, D.C., today, is believed to be Johnathan W. Shively, of 136 Beckman street, this place. He is down in the directory as a photographer, but his wife says he is an oil painter. While the family make a permanent residence, he travels from place to place in pursuit of his profession. Mrs. Shively says he left home in September, and the last she heard from him he was west, and she expected a letter from him from Chicago or Cincinnati. She adds that a number of years ago he suffered severely from neuralgia, and at times when excited would conduct himself in a peculiar manner. These periods would cover two or three days, after which he would become perfectly rational. About a month ago, in Cleveland, he met with an accident by which his head was injured, and she fears this may have caused temporary aberration of mind. Mrs. Shively did not know her husband intended visiting Washington. He is the son of a clergyman, and was born in Jackson county, Va. Mrs. Shively is a native of Alexandria in that state. She is considerably alarmed about him. The Shiveley family have resided here for upwards of ten years, but within a year or two passed the winters South.

A brother of Johnathan Wright Shively is mentioned in the following newspaper article found in The Fairbury Blade, Fairbury, Illinois, Saturday, December 17, 1881, Page 3, Column 4:

Identified

Last week an item appeared on the fourth page of our paper, to the effect that, "Another 'crank', named Shively, who called himself the 'True Messiah', was arrested in Washington on the 5th. He had addressed a letter to Judge Cox, demanding to be put on the witness stand to confront Guiteau, and to convince the Court and jury of the fallacy of Guiteau's theory of inspiration. He had been a traveling oil painter, and had lived at Saratoga, N.Y., for some years." The item also stated that he would probably be sent to the insane asylum.

This week, Mr. B. W. Shively, of this city, called at our office and stated that, from the description given, he had reason to believe that the man was his only brother. He received a letter from him, dated at Cincinnati, about four weeks ago, in which he said he had been waylaid in city of Cleveland, a short time previous, by highwaymen, who struck him a heavy blow on the head, knocking him senseless; but that he thought he had recovered from the effects of it. Mr. Shively is under the impression that his brother has become deranged from the result of his encounter in Cleveland, and has wandered down to Washington, as stated. He has not heard from him since receiving the letter mentioned above, and expressed his intention of writing to the authorities at the Capitol in regard to the matter. The unfortunate man has a family living at Saratoga, N.Y.

Johnathan W. Shively

SARATOGA, N.Y., June 14. -- [Special.] - Jonathan W. Shively, who died suddenly of heart disease at midnight, attracted no small police attention in Washington on the day Garfield was shot by Guiteau. He mounted a box in front of Willard's Hotel and proclaimed that he was the "true Messiah", and in an incoherent ramble sought to explain why the shooting had taken place. Shively was patriarchal in appearance; was born in West Virginia seventy-five years ago, and had lived here twenty-six years. He was a noted artist and portrait painter, was highly educated, and had traveled extensively. His widow survives him.

The following was found in the Alexandria Gazette, Alexandria, Virginia, Friday, June 15, 1894, Page 2, Column 6:

Death Of Mrs. Shiveley

Mrs. Ann D. Shiveley, widow of J. W. Shively, of Saratoga Springs, N.Y., died yesterday morning at the home of her brother, Mr. J. Frank Dyson, 1004 Prince street. Mrs. Shiveley was born in Charles county nearly 73 years ago, but had lived in Alexandria since 1850.

In addition the following was found in the Alexandria Gazette, Alexandria, Virginia, Page 3, Column 2:

Funeral

The funeral of the late Mrs. Anna D. Shiveley took place this afternoon from the residence of her brother,, Mr. J. Frank Dyson, 1004 Prince street, the Rev. A. W. Rudisill, pastor of Trinity M. E. Church, conducted the services and the interment was in Ivy Hill cemetery. The pallbearers were Dr. W. B. Dent and Messrs. J. Frank Dent, Llewellyn F. Dyson, and C. Fletcher Dyson, four nephews of the deceased, and Messrs. J. Frank Dyson and Windosr Demaine.

A couple of notes regarding Charles J. Guiteau.  He was born 8-Sep-1841 in Freeport, IL and died 30-Jun-1882.  He shot President James A. Garfield in 1881 at the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Station in Washington, D.C.  Garfield died two months later from infections related to the wound. Guiteau falsely believed he had played a major role in Garfield's election victory, for which he should have been rewarded with a consulship.  He was frustrated and offended by the Garfield administration's rejections.
