| 12722 | I8694 | Lee | Joshua Timothy | 6 May 1859 | 16 Apr 1931 | 0 | In her letter of 12 September 1999 to Melinda Strong, Jo Ann Lee Gartig wrote: "Tim began his working life as a teamster, age 17 (where on the Jasper County 1880 Federal census he was boarding with Newton B. Jones) in the logging camps of Jasper County, along the Neches River between Kirbyville and Buna. A few years later he was engineer of the Texas Tram, a logging train which ran through the Neches River "bottom" near Buna and Ten Acre Lake. He went to San Antonio to earn $50 so that he could marry. At age 27, on October 6, 1886, Tim married Emily Ann Westbrook. The marriage took place at Tram Town, Jasper County. Two sons were born in Tram Town and both died in infancy. The couple took each infant in turn to be buried at Farr's Chapel, Farrsville, Newton County, Texas. Emily Ann's family lived at Farrsville. On October 10, 1896, (at) age 37, Tim Lee was ordained by the Council of the South East Texas Free Will Baptist Association as a Free Will Baptist Minister. He was Minister of Erin Free Will Baptist Church, Erin Community, Jasper County. Throughout the years of his ministry, he was a circuit minister and one of the several churches that he traveled to preach in was Farr's Chapel. At age 38, the family moved to Kirbyville, Jasper County and built their "dog-trot" home. This was one of the first homes built in Kirbyville when Mr. Kirby was marking off lots for homesites. The seventh child, Lela Lanine was the first born in the new house...(and) the remaining children were all born in this home. Tim went to work for Mr. Kirby, owner of Kirby Lumber Company, as a timber evaluator. He was called a "log scaler" and measured amount of timber with a log scaling stick. For a while he was engineer for a log train and worked at night reparing engines in the engine shop. Tim worked for Kirby for many years until the lumber company burned in 1917. Then he went to work for Trout Creek Lumber Company as a night watchman at age 58. This lumber mill was located behind the old Kirbyville school building and near Tim's house. In October, 1927, age 67, Tim attended the 38th annual session of South East Texas Free Will Baptist Association at the Friendship Church near Roganville. He also attended the 39th annual session at Cairo Springs and in 1930 he attended the session at North Zulch, Madison County, Texas. In 1931, Tim was 71 years old and still employed as a night watchman at the Trout Creek Lumber Mill in Kirbyville. He died of pneumonia, April 16, 1931 at home. Services were held at the family home and Tim was buried in Kirbyville Cemetery. Chester Lee recounted to his daughter that "The old pendulum clock the family owned was won by Tim. A Kirbyville store owner offered the clock as a prize to the man who paid up his bill. Poppa owed 50 cents and paid up." |

(Back in Time, 1968, published in the SABINE COUNTY REPORTER May 6, 1998, page 4). Sabine County Reporter July 6, 2005 Audrey Dean Leighton Audrey Dean Leighton, 55, of Hemphill died Saturday, June 18, 2005, at Memorial Medical Center in Lufkin. He was born Feb. 15, 1950 as a son of the late Geraldine (Pratt) and Morgan Barry Leighton and was a lifelong resident of Hemphill, graduating from Hemphill High School as valedictorian in 1968. He was a global twirler and entertainer. Survivors: a great-aunt, Wilma LOGAN of Hemphill; second cousins, Lloyd Eldon PRATT, Jr. of Harlingen and Patsy Clapp SMITH of Beaumont; and numerours third and fourth cousins. A memorial service will be held 9 a.m. Saturday, July 9, at the Hemphill City Park overlooking the Pratt House. Arrangements are being handled by Starr Funeral Home Inc. in Hemphill. Friends remember, plan memorial for 'The Twirler,' an East Texas fixture who marched to his own beat By EMILY TARAVELLA, Cox East Texas Sunday, June 26, 2005 HEMPHILL - He was the valedictorian of his graduating class. He played the saxophone and was drum major of his high school band. A child of privilege, he was a descendant of one of his hometown's most prominent families.Some considered him to be a parapsychologist and a fortune teller. His closest friends say he was "complex" and "multi-faceted." But when Audrey Dean Leighton died a week ago today, most knew him simply as "The Twirler." With his long beard, short shorts, tall boots, brightly colored shirts and hats, Leighton stood out against the backdrop of the small East Texas towns and cities where he was often sighted toting his trademark baton. Lufkin, Nacogdoches, San Augustine and others may have tried to claim him as a "town character" all their own, but Hemphill was Audrey Dean's home. It is where he was born, and - for all practical purposes - it is where he died. A group of women gathered Wednesday afternoon in Hemphill at Pace Creek, an upscale gift shop and plant nursery, to plan Leighton's memorial service. At first glance they appeared an unlikely group of peers for an eccentric, 55-year-old hitch-hiking twirler. But as they shared their fondest memories of the things he said and did, it became clear: These women not only accepted Audrey Dean Leighton, they loved him. Shirley Winslow knew him the longest. "I remember when he was just a little kid twirling his baton," she said. "I watched him grow up." As Kathy DeKerlegand passed around a file folder containing photographs of Audrey Dean, the women smiled at the images: first a pleasantly plump baby, then a young child with striking eyes and finally a handsome teen wearing a graduation gown. Other photographs featured Leighton as a young man. Eight-by-ten glossies showed him performing on stage; snapshots showed him marching in parades, high-kicking as he twirled his baton. This is how the women will remember their friend - not as he looked in his hospital bed a few days ago, communicating only with blinks and nods. "He died of bone cancer," they said, adding that, "He may have also had a heat stroke." The folder full of Leighton's pictures also contained his hot-pink business card that reads, "Audrey Dean Leighton, Global Twirler," and the e-mail address, "Twirlerextraordinaire@hotmail.com." After Leighton graduated from high school and attended the University of Texas and other colleges, he began marching in parades and performing for small audiences who would drop coins or dollar bills in a jar. He was as comfortable twirling on the sidewalks of New Orleans, Phoenix, Los Angeles, Seattle, Washington and New York as he was in East Texas. His "international tour" included France, Spain, Italy and Sweden. On each of his sojourns (paid for with money from his trust fund), Leighton sent postcards home to his friends in Hemphill. He addressed them to entire groups of people, leaving the decision to the postmaster as to which post office box the card should actually be delivered. When he returned home, Audrey Dean twirled privately for his friends, in their homes or yards. Ten years ago Leighton settled in his family's old home place in Hemphill, The Pratt House. The Pratt House was built in 1908 at the town's most visible intersection by George Edward "Ed" Pratt - the son of Civil War veteran Hampton Pratt. The 7,000-square-foot building has "Greek Revival design influences with Victorian detailing," according to the Sabine County Historical Foundation's Web site. Galleries sweep across the entire front facade, and a two-story portico, gabled dormers and a central hall on each floor are among the home's distinguishing features, the Web site says. Thirty years ago Leighton's friend Mary Ann McDaniel would visit the The Pratt House to provide home health care for his three aging aunts. "That was back when Audrey Dean spent most of his time traveling," McDaniel said. "He would come in from time to time, but we didn't see as much of him back then." When Leighton returned to the house 10 years ago, it was empty. The three aunts had moved into a nursing home, and for years Audrey Dean entertained them there with his twirling. Eventually, two of the aunts died. A third aunt is still alive today, but Audrey Dean stopped twirling for her when she stopped remembering who he was. DeKerlegand said visiting Audrey Dean at The Pratt House "was like visiting the theater." "He would sit at the dining table and speak to the (dead) members of his family as if they were really there," she said. DeKerlegand's mother, Edna Campbell, said she remembers the first time she went inside the house. Although the house had grown shabby from years of neglect, the antiques and crystal inside it took her breath away. Leighton occupied a single room upstairs that had previously belonged to his mother. When the other heirs to the Pratt estate decided to sell the house to First Baptist Church in the late 1990s, Leighton had no choice but to move. The church planned to demolish the house to make way for a new family life center. But townspeople rallied, and eventually they raised enough money to move the house to a place where it would be safe. Restoration efforts are ongoing, but after the house was moved Leighton never cared to go back inside. DeKerlegand and Campbell helped Audrey Dean pack his few personal effects when he left the house for good. Everything he owned fit in a wooden trunk that Campbell allowed him to keep in her living room. Although he never returned to The Pratt House, Audrey Dean would often sit cross-legged on the floor of the Pace Creek gift shop and tell McDaniel and another friend, Donna Alexander, stories about the things that had happened within the home's walls over the last century. The women took careful notes and asked permission to preserve his stories on audio or videotapes. Leighton did not want to be recorded. "Sometimes he would tell us he had been 'communing with the dead' at the cemetery," Alexander said. "He would visit his relatives' graves, and he would tell us, 'Those Pratts are as tight-lipped in death as they were in life.'" Audrey Dean promised that if he ran across any forgotten Pratt money, he would give it to the historical foundation for the restoration efforts. After he lost the house, he often slept at the Super 8 motel in Hemphill. He was also known to frequent the San Augustine Inn, and one of Jasper's bed-and-breakfasts. When traveling through Houston he preferred to sleep under a certain tree, using his backpack as a pillow. He had no permanent residence. Although he had a driver's license, Audrey Dean usually hitched a ride with his friends. Alexander remembers giving him a ride to San Augustine, on her way to market in Dallas. "As he got out of the car, he told me to be careful," she said. "He warned me that there are lot of 'weirdos' out there, and not to give rides to anyone I didn't know." Some may have been startled by his unusual appearance, but McDaniel said anyone who took the time to talk to him could immediately sense that he was harmless. When McDaniel's cousin, a Dallas socialite, met Leighton for the first time, she was enamored of his twirling ability. "She had been a twirler in college," McDaniel said. "They went out in the yard and twirled together for hours." Time passed, and McDaniel's cousin was riding through the streets of Dallas with her "socialite friends," McDaniel said. "When they got to a stop light, some of the ladies started locking their doors and pointing to a man on the sidewalk," McDaniel said. "My cousin looked out, and who was it but Audrey Dean - right there in downtown Dallas." The Twirler was liable to be sighted any place at any time, according to his friends. DeKerlegand was friends with Leighton for years before she learned that her brother had been giving him rides in Marshall. As the women laughed about their memories, the conversation turned to Leighton's last days. On June 1, he returned from a trip to Nacogdoches with an upset stomach. Alexander gave him a ride to the Super 8, and he told her he thought he had a stomach virus. When the hotel management hadn't seen any sign of him three days later, they called his friend Donna Wilkerson and asked her to check on him. "I knocked on the door and told him I was coming in," Wilkerson said. "He was coherent to some extent, but he couldn't walk. I told the hotel to call an ambulance." Leighton died in a Lufkin hospital two weeks later. He had just enough money remaining in his trust fund to cover the cost of his cremation. "He told us he didn't want his ashes in one place," DeKerlegand said. "He wanted them spread." Leighton's parents divorced when he was a baby, and his father was "never in the picture." At the time of his death, Leighton's only family ties were two distant cousins and one aunt. Although his cousins currently possess his ashes, Audrey Dean's friends are hopeful that they will be allowed to spread them, as he requested. The friends said they would like to take a few of his ashes with them when they go on trips to different states and countries. They also hope to keep a few of his ashes in an urn in his upstairs bedroom at the Pratt House. They hope to make his old room a place people can visit to remember the man who added so much color to the East Texas landscape. "We have his hats, his boots and his batons," DeKerlegand said. "We also have his journal, but it is filled with his most personal and innermost thoughts. I hope it is something I can share some day, but now is not the time." McDaniel said she'll never forget the last time she saw Audrey Dean, at the end of May. "He was in the bank parking lot," she said. "I had heard through the small-town grapevine that Audrey Dean had become a Christian. I asked him if it was true that he had made a profession of faith." He said that it was. "Oh my goodness, you're my brother in Christ!" McDaniel remembers telling Leighton. He responded, "It sure looks that way." McDaniel was preparing to leave for a mission trip in Africa, the last time she saw Leighton. Because "you never know what might happen," she had prepared her will. She remembers telling Leighton, "If I don't see you again ..." and him finishing her sentence for her, "... I'll see you in glory." "He was telling me good-bye," McDaniel said. "Without even knowing it, that was our goodbye. It was the end of a 30-year friendship." The Twirler's friends said they accepted him just as he was, because he accepted them just as they were. "He had a gentle, gentle spirit," McDaniel said. "And everyone wanted his beautiful legs." Trailer for "Rainbows End" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkz4Hy114-M |

But no other Friedrich Liens is listed between 1784 and 1826, so it is assumed they are the same person. Email from Dot Williams, dated May 23, 2005: A belated Thank you for mailing me the German Family Church Records. Several years ago you forwarded some of these that you had received by e-mail (I think it was) from a man in Germany. I took my copies with me when I went to Salt Lake City that year, and asked for help reading them from a lady who worked in the International Department. The Old German was very difficult to read, but she did it as if she was reading the morning paper. I was amazed. Anyway, I compared what she had read for me, with this information from Kathy Bonnell, and found 3 places where we did not agree. 1) Adam Benkelman was born in 1825 not 1835. 2) (Generation 3) Christoph Stahle married Barbara Fritz not Frey. I just took another look at the original record, and it sure looks like Fritz to me. 3) (Generation 5-last page) Georg Friedrich Leins was born 25 January 174(5)?. There is a line in the copy that goes right over the last digit but it looks like a 5. But it certainly was not 11 Apr 1740 (as per Kathy Bonnell). The death date was correct. I'm not going to change my information, because I truly think it is more accurate than hers. But it is a good summary of the Benkelman collateral lines, and Thank You for sending it to me. Dot |

| 12768 | I3549 | Leitch | Angus | Feb 1856 | 17 May 1901 | 0 | Cass City Enterprise Vol. XX, No. 41 May 30, 1901 EXPLOSION Boiler Bursts-Angus Leitch Killed-Four Others Injured The Cass City Brick and Tile Company's Yards the Scene of the Sad Disaster At a few minutes past seven o'clock on Monday morning, the boiler exploded at the yards of the Cass City Brick and Tile Company, a little over a mile south of town, causing the death of Angus Leitch, who was acting as engineer at the time, and injuring four others. The report of the explosion was heard fully five miles away, and the concussion caused the windows to rattle in the houses about town. It was but a few minutes before a large number of men were on the spot and it was found that Angus Leitch was killed outright, while Perry Withey, Geo. Warner, Jas. Comstock and Hiram Baxter had received slight injuries and other employees had had very narrow escapes. The Cass City Brick and Tile Company was organized a little over two years ago and have done a thriving business. The boiler was purchased from a gentleman in Novesta, who was using it in a saw-mill and the company had to wait for him to saw out of his yard before it could be delivered. It was carefully inspected and re fitted where necessary and considered to be in good condition. During the former season Ed. Brotherton had charge of it, but owing to his connection with the Cass City Foundry and Machine Company, and being engaged this year as a manager, it was necessary to get someone else. Leitch was employed, but Mr. Brotherton started the machinery at the commencement of the season's run, testing the boiler with 110 pounds pressure, and instructing Leitch that sixty pounds was sufficient to do the work required. Mr. Leitch had had several years' experience about engines before coming from Ontario here and was considered thoroughly competent. No watchman has been employed by the company and we learn that the boys or young men have visited the place on Sundays and tampered with the gauges and stopcocks, and on Monday morning the steam throttle was found open. The fire was started and the steam gauge indicated forty pounds pressure. The engine was started at a slow speed, but steam began to blow off. It is stated that Leitch realized that something was wrong and appears to think it was about the safety valve, while in all probability it was the steam gauge, as there must have been more pressure than indicated, possibly as high as two hundred pounds. The opinions of engineers are different as to the probable cause of the explosion. Some claim that the water must have been low enough to allow the accumulation of gas in the upper part of the boiler, in order to get the force to throw the parts as far as it did, while others claim that a greater force would be obtained with a full boiler. It seems that the inspector would not work properly with less than sixty pounds of steam and some think that while the engineer was waiting for the gauge to indicate the amount, the water ran low causing the explosion. It is possible that the gauge had been tampered with on Sunday and not been noticed by the engineer. When the explosion took place, Leitch was standing between the boiler and engine, and it is not known positively whether parts of the boiler struck him or the force through him against a post near by. The injuries received were all about the face and head, rendering him unconscious instantly and causing his death a few moments later. Perry Withey was scalded slightly about the face and received a scalp wound but was able to resume work shortly after. Warner, Comstock and Baxter received slight bruises about the arms, shoulders and back?George Meiser had just picked up his wheel-barrow to start away from the engine when the accident occurred and the barrow was taken from him and smashed into kindling, while he escaped unhurt. Claude Bentley had just driven into the clay pit and does not know whether he jumped from the cart or was thrown from it but he was not hurt. The dome of the boiler was carried probably forty feet or more in height and fell about thirty rods away to the westward, while the head of the boiler was carried more than half as far? Angus Leitch, the deceased, was forty-two years of age, and came here from near Dutton, Ont., some twelve years previously. He purchased and operated a farm in Novesta towship, which he still owned, but a few years ago he leased his farm and moved to the M. Sheridan farm, just west of town, now owned by C.H. Topping. Upon the farm being sold to Mr. Topping, Mr. Leitch moved to town, occupying the residence at the corner of Leach and Sanilac Street, owned by M. Sheridan. He leaves a wife and three children to mourn his sudden departure. The funeral services were held in the Presbyterian Church, on Wednesday afternoon, conducted by the pastor, Rev. A. Torbet. The father, three brothers and three sisters of the deceased, and the mother and two brothers of Mrs. Leitch, came from the vicinity of Dutton and Rodney, Ont., to attend the funeral. Mrs. John Campbell, of this place, is also a sister of the deceased. Mr. and Mrs. Dan Gillies, of Port Huron, and Mr. and Mrs. Archie Gilles, of Millington, were among other relatives present.

His banjo-guitararina, invented, made and played by himself was worth a chapter in the history of Cass City." Cass City Enterprises Vol. XVI. No. 17 April 1, 1897. Page One Just before noon to-day, Franklin Lenzner went into his father's shop at his residence on Oak Street and was startled to find the old gentleman fallen upon his face. He was at once cared for and medical aid summoned but all efforts failed to resuscitate him. Oscar Lenzner, Sen., was a native of Germany, but has resided here for many years and has a wide circle of friends, his reputation as a manufacturer of stringed musical instruments being widespread. He was about seventy-three years of age and has been quite active up to the time of his death, being still able to make the very finest inlaid work. Further particulars will be given next week. The cause of his death was paralysis. Cass City Enterprises Vol. XVI. No. 18 April 8, 1897. Page Eight A Sudden Call As stated in our last issue, Oscar Lenzner, Sr., suddenly expired on Thursday, the 1?sup?st?/sup? inst., from a stroke of paralysis. Between the hours of ten and eleven that morning, his son, Franklin, was at work at the turning lathe at their workshop on Main Street, and had nearly completed the job he was at when he felt a sudden impulse to go to his father's. Making an excuse to his brother, he went to the house and meeting his mother at the kitchen door, asked if his father was in the shop. His mother replied that he was and they went towards the door which stood open and before entering they saw him lying face downward on the floor. It seems that Mrs. Lenzner had stepped outside a few moments previously for a pail of water and it is thought he must have fallen while she was out. His forehead struck against some coarse chips which cut quite an ugly gash. The doctor was at once summoned but life was extinct. He had three strokes of paralysis previous to this time and it was feared he would go in this manner. Deceased was born Feb. 14?sup?th?/sup?, 1825, in Leubetha, Saxony, Germany. There he learned the art of making violins and he had ever since taken a special pride in the manufacture of stringed instruments. In the year 1849 he came to America, taking up his residence at Lancaster, N.Y. On June 20, 1853, he was married to Susanna Striffler and came to Cass City in June, 1873. He conducted the furniture store on Main Street, until in more recent years his sons have managed it. Samuel and John are now in Detroit, while Oscar and Franklin are still in the business started by their father. Some years ago deceased secured a patent on a musical instrument called the banjo-guitarina and has since paid especial attention to its manufacture. He also invented what is known as "Kings David's harp" and made guitars, banjos, dulcimers, autoharps, etc. His mechanical ability was of a high order, his ideal of work being that of the true artist:--"Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well." Into every bit of work he did he put his heart. He has spent twenty-five years in this community and we will not again see his equal. Besides the four sons, already mentioned, a widow and daughter survive. The funeral services were held at the house Sunday morning and were conducted by Rev. B. J. Baxter, of the Presbyterian Church assisted by Rev. B. F. Wade, late of the Evangelical Church, Elkton. The services were attended by a large company of relatives and friends many of whom also followed the remains to the Elkland cemetery. He will be missed, not only by our citizens, but by many others, especially amongst the commercial travelers, who were in the habit of visiting his home when in town. He is gone, but the sweet strains of music he has produced still ring in the souls of hundreds. (Transcribed by Melinda McLemore Strong, January 2008) |

Shirley had also accepted a position in the Wayne Public Schools. Cass City Chronicle Friday, April 6, 1956 Cass City Area Social and Personal Items Page Four Rev. and Mrs. J. Franklin Beck and four sons of Grand Island, N.Y., came Sunday night and visited Mrs. Beck's mother, Mrs. H.F. Lenzner, until Wednesday morning. Mrs. Lenzner accompanied them home to spend a week. In 1966, while living in Akron, Ohio, she wrote this letter to the editors of the Cass City Chronicle to accompany her subscription renewal: Dear Mr. and Mrs. Haire, I am including this personal note, because the experience of subscribing to the Cass City Chronicle is so unique that I cannot let it pass by casually. By virtue of being born in the bedroom in the apartment just above the "big press", I suppose that since my first moments on earth I have heard the rumble of printing machinery, and have always been sure that a little printers' ink was mixed with my blood. My first 17 years in Cass City were intertwined with the Chronicle schedule, and I can remember well the various assignments of bringing papers from the folder, labeling, delivering to the post office, writing out liners and subscription renewals, proof-freading, and eventually writing copy. After school days ans marriage, my physical closeness with the Chronicle naturally ceased, but the weekly issues have followed me and been read regularly in Illinois, New York, and now in Ohio. When Dad and Mother sold to you folks 15 years ago, it was almost like parting with a member of the family. However, the move was a wise one, and we have all been pleased with the very harmonious way in which the Haire-Lenzner relations have continued since then. The death of both of my parents wevers my most important ties in Cass City. One cannot easily dismiss sentimental associations that abruptly, however, and there are still many people in Cass City about which I care. So please apply the enclosed check of $4.00 on our Chronicle subscription for the coming year. I can't say goodbye to that part of my life yet. Sincerly, Shirley Lenzer Beck 1040 Oak Tree Rd. Akron, Ohio 44320 Cass City Chronicle Wednesday, November 21, 1984 Page Two Shirley Lenzner Beck, 64, died Sunday, Nov. 11, at her home in Lakeside, Ohio.

Shirley is survived by her husband, the Rev. J. Franklin Beck, retired pastor of the United Methodist Chruch in New York and Ohio parishes. She leaves five sons, several grandchildren and a sister, Phyllis Lenzner Thomas of East Lansing. Those who wish may send a contribution to the Lakeside United Methodist Church, Lakeside, Ohio 43440, who will share with the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Research Foundation. A memorial service was held in the Lakeside United Methodist Church, Sunday, Nov. 18. (Transcribed by Melinda McLemore Strong, January 2008) |
