Morn for her not as dead, for to live in the hearts we leave behind us, is not to die. Her life was a most exemplary

tarried here but to love and minister to the comforts of those around her. God in his mercy shield and succor the

joy for mourning, and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.

A Brave West Virginian Dies Fighting the Sioux
The family of Mr. W. Brockmire formerly of Palatine,
this county, received two letters on Monday evening last. One from Col. Moore,
6th U. S. Infantry and the other from W. A. Burleigh, Clerk of the Steamer Far
West. Each containing the particulars of an engagement with the Sioux near the
mouth of Powder River, Dakota Territory, in which Mr. Brockmire lost his life
under the following circumstances.
The Steamer Far West was employed to carry supplies to
Gen. Terry's army operating against the hostile Sioux on the Big Horn River.
And when near the mouth of Powder River it was found that the boat was too
heavily laden and a part of the cargo was unloaded and the steamer proceeded on
her way. Upon returning for the supplies it was found they had been destroyed
by Indians who occupied the banks of the river in force and made threatening
demonstrations toward the boat. A few shells from a twelve pounder on board
dispersed them however. Col. Moore, who with three companies of infantry, was
on board the boat, called for three volunteers - scouts to reconnoiter their
position and determine their strength.
Mr. Brockmire and two others responded to the call and
immediately left the steamer. But before they had proceeded far they were
attacked by a large force of Indians and started as fast as possible to the
boat. Six Indians endeavored by circling them to cut off their retreat and Mr.
Brockmire's horse was soon shot and fell breaking his gun. He had been shot
through the arm previously and disabled. And while attempting to rise, a Sioux
rode up to him and shot him through the stomach. The discharge of the Indian's
gun caused the scouts to turn and see the Indian dismount in the act of
scalping the wounded man. They both fired on him at once and he fell pierced by
two balls. They then returned, scalped the Indian and brought Mr. Brockmire on
board the boat. He died the same evening of the occurrence and was buried at
the mouth of the Powder River.
Mr. Brockmire was the son of Samuel Brockmire of
Palatine and was well and favorably known in that community. He was employed as
a volunteer scout under Gen. Terry's command and his officers speak in
complimentary terms of his brave conduct and gentlemanly deportment while in
the service. His relatives and friends have our sincere sympathy in their great
affliction.

Biography of Marcellus M. Thompson:
(From Clarksburg Newspaper)
February 8, 1895
Marcellus M. Thompson
Marcellus M. Thompson, who for the past eleven years, except one, has held the office of Recorder and
Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Town of Clarksburg, and for a number of years has represented
it as attorney, was born in this city March 10, 1859.
He was admitted to practice law in 1881, and was one of council who represented the Memorialists in the
Asylum Investigation of 1882.
Mr. Thompson is an excellent mathematician, as well as an able lawyer, and in 1884 was one of a number
of persons selected by Artemus Martin, A.M., Ph. D., member of the London Mathematical Society, to pay
a tribute of respect to the late Enoch Berry Seitz, who was a member of that society, and at the time
of his death occupied the chair of Mathematics in the University of Missouri.
For years Mr. Thompson has contributed regularly to prominent daily papers, and written for various
journals devoted to the science of mathematics.
In 1888 he was nominated for prosecuting attorney by the Democratic Convention, but was defeated at
the general election.
In 1889 he did the legal work in the revision, codification, and preparation of the Ordinances of this
city, and prepared an appendix thereto in 1894, which were printed and bound, and now contain the
municipal law of Clarksburg.
He is the author of the book entitled "A Magistrate' Manual, containing forms in Civil and Criminal
Proceedings under the Code of West Virginia," which first appeared in 1889, and a second and revised
edition thereof was printed in 1894, which is a valuable work.
Mr. Thompson's long continious service as Recorder has been characteric of all other business matters
with which he has been connected - that of entering into the work with spirit of progress, and sparing
no pains in the discharge of every duty. As a lawyer he has been very successful and has a large
patronage. As a business man his ability is as readily recognized and appreciated.
Mr. Thompson turned over the office of Recorder to his successor, W. B. Osborn, in first class order,
and his settlements were correct and in every way satisfactory, which speak in loudest terms his ability
and correctness as an official.
The Last Will of Marcellus M. Thompson (A copy of this document is in the possession of J. H. Thompson):
(The Will of Marcellus M. Thompson filed with the Harrison County Clerk’s Office. Book 8, Page 196)
Marcellus M. Thompson
Will
I Marcellus M. Thompson, of Clarksburg, Harrison County, West Virginia, make this my last will and
testament, hereby revoking all former wills by me made, and directs the payment of my just debts. I
give devise and bequeath to Carrie Thompson, my faithful companion and beloved wife, all my property,
both personal and real, situate[d] in Harrison County in the State of West Virginia, or elsewhere,
with this provision and understanding, however, that my said wife shall pay to our sons, Desty Thompson
and Earl Davis Thompson, the sum of five hundred dollars, each, upon attaining twenty one years of age,
and that she will provide for maintain and educate, properly, each one of them. It is my desire that my
estate be not appraised, and that my wife as my personal representative be not required to keep any
account thereof, or make any settlement. I appoint Carrie Thompson, my wife, my executrix of this my will,
and desire that she execute no bond as such executrix.

Looking for Joshua & Melissa Layman in the 1900, 1910, 1920, and maybe the 1930 Censuses for

they're child, Caroline Layman, remained and is buried in Fairmont, Marion County, WV. I
suspect they are probably in these other Censuses as well.
My ultimate goal is to figure out when they died.

was a farmer, later worked in the oil fields. When he finished eight grade, he
went down to Grove City College, took and passed the entrance exam. He enlisted
in the Pennsylvania National Guard April 27, 1898 and saw services at the
Homestead Strike (1892, iron and steel workers), the Oil City Flood, the
Johnstown flood of 1889. He later served in Spanish-American War as a cook. He
dabbled with photography during the war. At the outbreak of the war with Spain
in 1898, he served with Company C, 14th Regiment, Oakdale as a private, which
is a voluntary infantry. He served with John J. Brockmyer. He served from April
27 to November 13, 1898. He saw Grover Cleveland sworn in for his second term
(March 4, 1893). He was in the parade with the National Guard. He was
discharged November 13, 1898. In the early 1890's, he came to Nobletown to work
in the oil fields.
From the book "A 200TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY OF NOBLESTOWN,
PENNSYLVANIA (1796-1996)" by Robert G. Larimer, page 39,
Edward Jennings, an owner of several
oil leases, is still remembered by some of the elder citizens of the area. One
of his employees, William Shrum (Hazel Galloway's father), worked for Mr.
Jennings at a time when the Presbyterian Church had some rough financial times.
Whenever Mr. Shrum, an elder of the church, mentioned this to Mr. Jennings, he
would often make a donation of $50 or $30, a substantial amount for those
times.

From the book "A 200TH ANNIVERSARY HISTORY OF NOBLESTOWN,
PENNSYLVANIA (1796-1996)" by Robert G. Larimer, page 54,
Hazel Galloway, life-long resident of
Noblestown and in her 92nd year, recalls the meeting of her father, William
Shrum, and her mother, Alice May Brockmyer . It seems William had invited May's
sister to go on a date. When her sister got sick, May took her place. Not long
after, Miss May Brockmyer became Mrs. William Shrum. (We do not know what the
sister thought about that.) Both were faithful members at the Presbyterian
Church. William also served as elder and May taught the women's Bible
class.

John James shipped aboard a vessel taking horses to South Africa during the
Boer War from Oct 11 1898 to May 31 1902. He arrived in South Africa after the
conflict was over.
He wrote this letter during his voyage to Bertha
Brockmyer.
John James was sent to study Electrical Engineering at Holy Ghost College
(now Duquesne), but did not complete his education.
John James and his family have lived in Cherry Valley in 1910, and lived in
Midway in 1911 or 1912 in two different houses. He then moved to St. Mary's in
late spring of 1913. He worked in the oil refinery while at Saint Mary's. His
children Peg and Jack contacted polio during this time. He probably cursed the
day he moved to St. Mary's, West Virginia because of the polio. Besides they
did not sell whiskey. Anyway part of his job required him to stack barrels of
oil by hand. He stated they weighed over 500 lbs.
Once someone (probably one of his kid that wrote a note) saw him pick up
the mattress with Peg on it and carry it down the hall to another bedroom and
put it on the bed. Some feat for a man with an artificial leg.
John James then returned to McDonald, Pennsylvania in the Fall of 1915.

"Christians recognize with all
persons the inevitablility of death. The central doctrine of the Christian
faith is the resurrection. Christians affirm their common faith in their
attitude toward death and in their witness during the approach and experience
of death. The reality of death, with all of its attendant sorrow and sense of
loss, must be anticipated for us all, and there must be created the kind of
health of mind and spirit that allows Christians to live their faith in this
critical area of human existance. Christians should seek to make the occasion
of death a time in which they reaffirm with joy the hope of the
gospel."
