"A HISTORY OF KNOX AND DAVIESS COUNTIES, INDIANA". 1886. GOODSPEED PUBLISHING COMPANY. CHICAGO. DAVIESS COUNTY, IN. WASHINGTON TWP. PAGE 780

JOHN L. JOHNSON, the eldest son of James Johnson, was born in 1782, and when a small youth with his father, shared the wilds of a Western life; he could at the age of ninety years, name each of the ten families, who together, in 1790, came to the "territory of Knox;" he retained to a remarkable degree his memory to the day of his death. He died to the advanced age of ninety-two years; for sixty-five years he lived continuously in the same home in Daviess County; his companion during all this time, sharing his trials and joys, died two months later. He was a soldier in the war of 1812, and participated in a number of important engagements, and at the time of his death was a pensioner on the Government, because of services rendered in that war. His politics were those of his father, Whig, and later Republican; his religous sympathies were with the Methodist Episcopal Church, he having been identified with that denomination from boyhood. "He now rests from his labors." One of his brothers, Friend, moved West with the retreating Indians; he was a silversmith by trade. He died near Muscatine, Iowa. Another brother, Elijah, who was born in 1796, met his death by a falling tree in 1848, in Daviess County, Ind. His religion and politics were the same as his elder brother's. He left a family of nine children, eight of whom are still living, and whose average age is fifty-four years. William Johnson, a brother, was said to be the first American child born in the State of Indiana; in politics he differed from the rest, as he died a Democrat. George, the youngest, is at this writing alive, being the only one left of the large family. His seventy-seven years sit lightly upon him; he now lives near Sumner, Ill.

Washington Democrat. Washington, Daviess County, Indiana. April 8, 1914

Eleanor Adams. Mrs. Eleanor Adams, eighty-four years old, died about 11:30 o'clock, Tuesday night (April 7, 1914) at her home at 908 Robinson Street. Organic heart disease was the cause of her death. For fifty-four years she had lived in the house at 908 Robinson Street where she died. She was born in this county, March 17, 1830, and was a daughter of John and Polly (Anderson) Johnson. She was married four times, her last husband having been John W. Adams. She is survived by three children: Mrs. Sam Smith, city; Mrs. James Creamer, Mitchell; and Mrs. George Brown, city. Three children are deceased.

Contributor's note: Her husbands were: William Pulliam, Elias Robinson, Gordon Doherty, and John Adams. Her deceased children were: Robert Pulliam; Dixon Robinson, and Dora Robinson Peterson. Eleanor's home sat toward the center of the block now bounded by Front Street, Maxwell Avenue, Robinson Street, and 9th Street, as described by Ethel Robinson Evans, her grand daughter. It seems that lots for Dixon, Dora, Bertha, and other children were taken from the original land.

Records of Oak Grove Cemetery, Washington, Daviess County, Indiana, show:

Eleanor Adams buried in Oak Grove Cemetery in Washington, Indiana, born 17 Mar 1830, died 7 April 1914. She is buried in an unmarked grave as are Robert Pulliam, Rosa, and two girls; near the marked grave of Dixon Robinson in Section S. The grave lot is owned by Ellener Adams and Friend Johnson.

Tombstone in Veale Creek Cemetery reads: Elias Robinson, died January 28, 1863, Aged 51 years, 4 months, 20 days. This gives a birthdate of September 8, 1811. This presents a problem since he is present in the 1810 census. There is either a mistake in the stone, which is very clear, or the census date for 1810 Mason County, Kentucky. The census date should be Aug 6, 1810. There was a period of 10 months given to finish the census.

Tombstone in Section S, Oak Grove Cemetery, Daviess County Indiana, reads: Dixon Robinson. (He was known as Dixon, Dickson, and Richard.)

Washington Democrat. Washington, Daviess County, Indiana. April 26, 1913.

Richard Robinson is Dead. Richard Robinson died at 7:15 o'clock Friday night at his home at 808 West Jefferson Street. He had complained of having stomach troubles for the last three years and for the last three months his condition had been much worse. Mr. Robinson was fifty seven years old. He was born in this city October 13, 1855, and was a son of Elias Robinson. He married Mary Jane Cochran when a young man and eight children were born, all of whom are living. They are: Mrs. Frank Meade of Bicknell; Mrs. Matt Sullivan, Mrs. Ethel Bergert, William, Edna, and Walter of this city; and Mrs. Mary [Mayme] Waggoner of Terre Haute. He is also survived by his mother, Mrs. Ellen Adams, two sisters, Mrs. Bertha Smith and Mrs. Richard Brown, city, and one brother, William Robinson of Garden City, Kansas. Mr. Robinson was a member of the Baptist Church and also belonged to the Loyal Americans. The funeral services will be held Sunday morning at 9:30 o'clock at the home on Jefferson Street and will be in charge of Rev. S.A. Hayworth, Baptist minister. Interment will be made in Oak Grove Cemetery. [son Hiram has been omitted; also sister Margaret B. Creamer].

Wife: Ellen

Children: Mary Ann Wycoff, Lydia Snoot [Smoot], Elijah B. Robinson, Nancy

Robinson, John Robertson [Robinson], Richard [Dixon] Robinson, Dora S. Robinson, Birthy B. Robinson. [Emma is missing; Dixon is often called Richard.]

Dixon Robinson is found in the 1860 Census for Daviess County, Washington Township. His name appeared to be Simon Robinson to the compiler of the WFT Index to the 1860 selected Census Index, but it is Dixon. He had three older brothers and three older sisters by the name of Robinson, and one older brother and one older sister by the name of Pulliam. He had two younger sisters by the name of Robinson; Elias had been married to Jane Bassett and Ellen had been married to Robert Pulliam. His name in the Probate appears to be Richard, or Dixon.

Baptismal Register of St. Simon's Church - Washington Daviess County Indiana

On the 20th day of July, 1862, I baptized Mary Jane, born in Daviess County, June 25th of the same year, daughter of William Cochran and of Catherine Burns, his wife. Sponsors were: John Coffey & Mrs Ann Kings. J.B. Chasse. Signatures of parents and John Coffey are in the register.

The Washington Indiana City Directory for 1917 lists Mary Robinson (widow of Dixon) living at 808 Jefferson Street with Hiram and Walter Robinson. She was listed with Dixon in the 1912 City Directory.

The 1900 Census gives her birthdate as June 1863, contrary to the year engraved on her tombstone, 1864. The baptismal register gives 1862, which is probably correct. The age given in her obiturary corresponds to 1862. Tombstone in St. John's Cemetery, Daviess County, Indiana, reads: Mary Jane Robinson, 1864-1924.

"I am just despondent and down and out," Meade told his daughter, Mrs Emma Moore, Bicknell, and his wife, when found more than an hour after he had fired the bullet from a revolver belonging to his son, F.C. Meade. Meade was chief of police at Bicknell during the term of Mayor Winter and his term of service expired Dec. 31, 1921.

Bicknell Daily News. Thursday, June 26, 1924. Frank Meade Shoots Self.

He was found yesterday afternoon in a garage in the rear of his home by his wife and daughter, Mrs. Emma Moore, of Bicknell. He had shot himself through the left lung.

He was said to have been out of a job. He had gone to Hartford City Tuesday, driving a car borrowed from one of the boarders in his home. He returned Wednesday forenoon, but the family did not know of his return until he was found in the garage Wednesday afternoon. His wife said he had been worrying over his financial situation. His attempt at self destruction had been made with a .38 calibre automatic belonging to his son, F.C. Meade. The bullet was aimed at the heart, but barely missed the heart and passe on through the body. The shot would have been instantly fatal had the course of the bullet varied but slightly. The shot was not heard by members of the family. Note: Frank Meade was chief of police in Bicknell during the administration of Mayor Winter, his term expiring December 31, 1921. Later: - Meade's condition was said to be slightly improved at the hospital this afternoon.

Marion S. Burgett, aged thirty-three, son of S.H. Burgett, a well known citizen, was run over and instantly killed Thursday afternoon by a B.& O. Southwestern passenger train No. 2 as it pulled into the uptown depot at 1:30 o'clock. It appeared as though death was instantaneous, for immediately after the train had passed over his body, several ran to him, but he was already dead. Both feet of the unfortunate man were crushed and the bones which were exposed were clinging to his legs only by threads of flesh. His shoes were off and his clothing torn to pieces. A large dent in his hat which was found about fifty feet west of the body, showed where he had received an awful blow to the head. The marks in the center of the track showed that his body had been dragged over the ground for about fifty feet. No one, except possibly a travelling salesman who boarded train no. 2, the train that killed Burgett, saw the accident. The drummer was standing on the depot platform watching the approach of the train when he suddenly cried out: "There goes a man underneath the train!" Immediately a large crowd ran to the scene only to find Burgett's horribly crushed and mangled body. It was hard to identify the man at first, as he was lying on his face and his form and clothes were too badly disfigured for identification. Finally, Deputy Marshall Theodore Wallace expressed the opinion that the dead man was Marion Burgett, but the identification was not complete until his hat, which contained the initials, "M.S.B." was found. Raymond Burgett, a brother of the dead man, was standing on the depot platform when the accident occurred. He followed the crowd to the scene. "Who is it?", he asked. Just then some one was heard to say: "Yes, it is Marion Burgett, for here are the initials in his hat". "My God", cried young Burgett, "Is it Marion?", as he reeled backwards. The poor fellow turned ghostly pale and became so nervous that he could scarcely stand up. His grief was pitiful to see and a kind hearted old woman approached him saying, "Poor boy, it was God's will, and could not be helped," hoping to relieve his agony. It is the opinion of those who saw anything at all of the accident that Burgett threw himself under the train. Raymond Burgett, although he refused to say much about a talk he had with his brother about twenty minutes before the accident, finally said that Marion was out of work and had been for some time and that he did not know what he would do if he didn't find a job soon. Raymond says he told him to go home to his wife and not to worry so much about it, and it would make it easier for him. Another statement of the unfortunate man which was made while in conversation with Patrolman Edward Royse, just before he left the depot platform to his walk to death, and which will strengthen the views of those who think he committed suicide, was that he was out of a job and was thinking about going out of town to get one. In both instances he was talking about being out of employment and seemed to be greatly discouraged because of it. Michael Toohey, engineer on a yard engine, which was standing on the side track near the place where Burgett was killed says that he saw Burgett going down the track and that his head was hanging down on his breast like one in a deep study. Neither the engineer, nor the fireman, on train no. 2 saw the train hit the man. They blew the whistle for the station as usual. Burgett, after he had left the depot, went down the track to a point near west Second street and it was here that the train hit him. Here his hat was found, but his mangled body was dragged as far east as west First street. His shoes were found about twenty five feet west of his body. The entire train passed over his body, but it is thought only his feet were touched by the wheels, as they were mashed to a pulp, while other parts of his body were in a much better condition. A severe blow on the head, it is thought, killed him instantly. The hat, when found, had a large dent and hole on the left side, a little to the front and there was a great gash on the side of the head. It is believed that the force of the blow killed him before he was dragged beneath the train. A complete investigation of Burgett's injuries was made at the Gill undertaking establishment and revealed that the left arm was broken in two or three places, both feet were crushed, several ribs on the right side were crushed, his left jaw was broken, the scalp torn in different places and numerous minor bruises. Burgett, two years ago, married Ethel Robinson, and is survived by the wife and one daughter. He lived on Meridian street, and until several weeks ago was a bartender about the city. He was always a well dressed man and was well known. The funeral arrangements have not been made.

Washington Herald, Washington, Daviess County, Indiana. December 19, 1908. (Saturday)

The funeral services for the late Marion Bergert were held Saturday morning at the residence of his father, S.H. Bergert, on north Fifth street. The Rev. J.M. Douglass, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, had charge and preached the funeral sermon. Burial was made in Oak Grove cemetery. The services were attended by many friends of the unfortunate young man, whose tragic end served to make the shock of his death all the harder. The inquest was conducted Friday before Squire Kelams and the testimony was all in after supper. The examination of witnesses was started in the afternoon but it was impossible to reach several of them until night. The verdict of the acting coroner will be that Bergert came to his death by being run over by B.&O. Southwestern train #2 and that it was probably an accident. Although many believe Bergert's death was suicide there was an absence of testimony at the inquest to support this theory. Bergert was a bright young man and studied law for a while in the offices of Ogdon & Inman. He was an apt pupil and had made much progress when he abandoned his determination to become a lawyer. He was a man of fine appearance and had acquired a good education. Beyond doubt there was a brilliant future before him had he continued the study of law.

Washington Democrat, Washington, Daviess County, Indiana. December 19, 1908. (Weekly)

Marion Bergert, one of the best known men about town, was killed by the east bound passenger train No. 2 on the B.& O. Southwestern railway west of the depot Thursday afternoon. Twenty minutes before the accident, or suicide, Marion Bergert talked with his brother, Raymond, near Main and east Third streets. During the conversation Marion complained because he had been out of employment for a long time, and said that he did not know what would become of himself and family unless he could soon procure employment. The two brothers separated, Raymond Bergert going to the B.& O. Southwestern depot. He was standing upon the platform when the suicide, or accident, occurred. It seems that Marion Bergert, a while after his converstion with his brother on Main street, started west. Near the depot he met Policeman Ed Royce, to whom he also complained of his unfortunate condition, being out of employment and unable to get work. Bergert walked west along the railway. He passed the switch engine standing on a siding near the Elswick hotel, and Michael Toohey, the engineer, says he walked with head down as he passed the engine. According to the only eye witness to the tragedy, C.S. Welsh, a travelling salesman for the Harriet Dunley Supply Company of Indianapolis, Bergert either fell, or deliberately threw himself under the wheels of the train as it was pulling into the depot. Bergert did not fall upon the track in front of the locomotive. He dropped to the track between the tender and the mail coach, and death was instantaneous. Both his feet were cut off, his left arm was broken and his head and neck were badly bruised. His coat was torn completely off, but his body was not badly mangled. The body was taken to the Gill undertaking establishment where it was prepared for burial. Marion Bergert was twenty-six years old and was a son of H.S. Bergert, a retired farmer who is very ill at his home in this city. The young man was united in marriage to a daughter of Richard Robinson a year ago last August. Besides a wife he leaves an infant daughter. They live on north Meridian street. His father gave Marion a house and lot when he was married. This the young man sold and the proceeds from the sale were soon gone. Marion Bergert, some years ago, had an ambition to become a lawyer, and for some time read law in the office of Ogdon & Inman. During recent years he had not been regularly employed anywhere. He was a fine looking young man, and a perfect dresser. He had been despondent for some days and this gives strength to the theory that he committed suicide, but it may be that he stumbled and fell.

Letter to the Editor:

Wrecking of Hamer Cemetery Angers Writer

Lowell R. Davis

Editor of the Tribune

Dear Sir:

I noticed in my Tribune the wrecking of the Hamer Cemetery at Spring Mill Park. I hated to read that account as I have one brother and two sisters buried there. My grandfather, Thomas Hamer and his brother, Hugh, ran that mill before there were any railroads. My mother was born and raised in the Thomas L. Hamer home. All my people on my mother's side are buried in the Hamer Cemetery. My father was a stone mason and made the markers for my brother and my two sisters' graves. My mother was 14 years old when they built the old O. & M. Railroad. She said the men building the road would come down to the Hamer Cave to get water for the men working on the track. I noticed where Hugh Hamer's marker was broken in two different places. I can't think of anyone that would be mean enough to go into any cemetery and destroy markers like they did there. I only hope that the law can run them down. I am enclosing 25 cents for postage. Please send me two of last week's Tribunes, as I want to send them to my people who live out of town. Thank you.
