Fire in the mill

In the Henderson family tree we found .
In 1882 a boy tripping over a lantern started a fire that consumed his, and other, factories and manufactories in Merrimack.
Here the newspaper article

From the Sacramento daily 1882 

Lawrence Ford

FORD, LAWRENCE: son of James Ford (1), Burgess and Freeman; Burgess, 5 July 1797; adm Freeman, Sep 21 1804; active, 1804-31; Boxmaster (1812); Deacon (1814-15);

 in 1813 took lease of the weaver-trade lapping-house and calendar, but "resiles from his engagement and throws up his bargain" (Thomson, P 263); m 29 April 1805 Emelie Duff; with sons, James (2) and Robert emigrated to America before 1837

Born in Dunfermline, Scotland to James and Ellen (Elder) Ford. He came to the US when he was 2 with his parents; they settled in Chicopee Falls, Mass until 1851 when they moved to Wisconsin. He married Amelia Henderson, 20 Nov 1863; they had 5 children, one dying in infancy, another 3 weeks after her father. They lived mostly in Vienna where he owned the Brausen Hotel for a time. Later held various offices in the city.

Fashion

Last time we had the Hendersons in view.
The grandfather  of Jenny Amelia Ford (daughter of Amelia Henderson) was married 4 times .
And about his 4th wife Fanny Burnap there are some stories to tell.
 This Fanny Burnap was he widow of Jacob Burnap son of the first minister of Merrimack.

Her sisters  in law invented  The BURNAP "LEGHORN BONNETS"
here the full storie.
According to the oral town history, presented at the Bicentennial celebration in 1946 (written by my grandmother, Mattie Kilborn Webster): "The Burnap sisters, daughters of the first minister [Jacob Burnap], had other ideas of a woman's usefulness. It is claimed that in this Town [Merrimack] they invented the making of "Leghorn hats" or bonnets, as they were called.

Some of these bonnets were of black leghorn straw trimmed with peach colored crepe, and crowned with a beautiful bouquet of half-blown roses, lilacs and field flowers. 

They were often ornamented with a bow of ribbon, long ends or streamers on one side. A bouquet of wild poppies was sometimes placed in front surmounted by a plume of marabout feathers. 

The ribbon was either straw colored or striped. A little later the style changed. 

Pieces of brim was cut away at the back and drawn up at the crown with a large bow. Strings and rosettes were over the right ear. Some were sold in Boston for as much as $50. John Stark bought one for his wife Molly and it can be seen at the Historical Building (at Concord).
They not only made bonnets but other things from grass or plated straw. 

This certain kind of straw was known as "Dunstable straw." Surely those early women deserve to be remembers for their spirit of industry."
" It [Merrimack] claims the credit of making the first Leghorn bonnets, which often sold for forty or fifty dollars," is also noted in the book: "The Merrimack River; its source and its tributaries. 

Embracing a history of manufactures, and of the towns along its course; their geography, topography, and products, with a description of the magnificent natural scenery about its upper waters," by J. W. Meader., published in 1869.
"In the History of Dedham, MA, there is an extract from the Norfolk County Advertiser of August 1821: 'On Monday last was sold at auction at Merchant's Hall the elegant Bonnet which has been for several days exhibited at the store of Messrs. Hall J. Howe & Co., made by Misses Bernaps of Merrimack, N.H. of a wild grass discovered by them in that town. It was knocked off to Josiah Bradlee for Fifty Dollars. The execution of the Bonnet was very superior to the one lately sent to England from Connecticut. We understand that one of the above mentioned young ladies is now visiting at Medford and that the money was presented to her yesterday afternoon. Thus shall the skill and industry of our countrywomen ever be rewarded.' "[from The Burnap-Burnett genealogy by Henry Wyckoff Belknap; Salem, Mass.: Essex Institute, 1925, page 119]
One Sophia Woodhouse of Wethersfield CT plyed her trade in the bonnet making business, about the same time as the Burnap sisters, however she patented her design in 1821.

William Batty served with Nelson as gentleman volunteer on the Boreas for over six years (four years six months and six days as Servant, and one year nine months and twenty-four days as Midshipman). In June 1786 Nelson put him in command of the American schooner Brilliant, impounded for trading in contravention of the Navigation Act (see Nicolas, Dispatches and Letters, I, pp.181 and 184). With the lot is a note by Agnes Batty, Batty's daughter-in-law, dated 1880, recording that he had been forced to leave the Navy through ill-health when still a Midshipman. It has remained in possession of the Batty family to this day.

George Alan Terry

Terry, George A. (1872–1957)

Mr. George A. Terry, who died at Rouse Hill House, near the village of Rouse Hill, N.S.W., on the 24th of last month in his 86th year, was a member of well known pioneering families. He was a son of the Hon. Samuel H. Terry, M.L.C., and Mrs. Terry, whose maiden name was Caroline Weaver, also a pioneer family.

Mr. Terry was a great grandson of Samuel Terry, who arrived in New South Wales at the beginning of the 19th century and with two others founded the Bank of New South Wales in 1817. Samuel Terry helped with the development of the Colony in many ways, and so did Mr. Terry's uncles, Richard, of Denistone, and Edward, of Eastwood Estate, both at Ryde, N.S.W., who were prominent citizens of their day. Also, Mr. Terry's father played his part as M.L.A. for New England and Mudgee before being appointed to the Upper House.

For nearly 50 years Mr. Terry owned and managed Box Hill, in the Rouse Hill district, a property of 4000 acres where he was born, as also was his father. He was educated at Katoomba, N.S.W., and privately before taking over the family estate. Whilst at Box Hill he was master of the Sydney Hunt Club from 1900 to 1910 and was the last M.F.H. of the club, which had been founded 30 years earlier by Edward Terry, of Eastwood, who also founded the Sydney Coaching (four-in-hand) Club. Mr. George Terry, who was always a keen horseman, rode in amateur and picnic races with A. B. ("Banjo") Paterson and other leading riders of his day, and won a Corinthian Plate and several steeplechases.

He married Miss Nina Rouse, a daughter of Mr. Edwin Rouse, of Rouse Hill Estate, who was a brother of Mr. Richard Rouse, of Guntawang Station, N.S.W., and of Mrs. A. A. Dangar, of Baroona, Singleton, N.S.W. Rouse Hill Estate, where Mr. and Mrs. Terry had resided for the past 25 years, was a grant to Mrs. Terry's great grandfather, the first Richard Rouse, by Governor Lachlan Macquarie. The grant was affirmed in 1816, but the land was occupied by Mr. C. J. Rouse in 1813. In 1817 Richard Rouse commenced building the homestead, which was completed in 1822, the whole of the materials for it being taken by bullock waggons from Parramatta. This fine old edifice of sandstone, brick, and red cedar still receives much attention from the Historical Society of New South Wales.

Mr. Terry is survived by his widow and five sons—Geoffrey, Roderick, Edwin, Gerald, and Noel—as well as numerous grandchildren.

This is a shared entry with Richard Rouse

Richard Rouse (1842-1903) and RICHARD junior (1843-1906), pastoralists and stud-breeders, were first cousins and grandsons of Richard Rouse of Rouse Hill. Richard was born on 2 January 1842 at Guntawang, near Mudgee, New South Wales, eldest son of Edwin Rouse, grazier, and his wife Hannah Terry, née Hipkins. Educated at Dr Woolls's school at Parramatta, in 1861 he managed Guntawang, 4000 acres (1619 ha) on the Cudgegong River near Mudgee and inherited it on the death of his father the next year. Using the 'Crooked R' brand made famous by his grandfather, Rouse bred pedigree carriage horses, cattle and merino sheep and Guntawang became noted for its lavish hospitality. He also held other properties.

In 1870 gold was discovered in the district and Gulgong was founded. In March 1872 Rouse became the principal shareholder in the Guntawang Freehold Gold Mining Co., which was moderately successful. He represented Mudgee in parliament in 1876-77 and in 1879. In 1895 he published The Australian Horse Trade, an address to the United Service Institution, in which he stressed the breeding advantages of the 'Yorkshire coach-horse'. He was a magistrate and regularly sat on the bench, first president of the Gulgong Turf Club in 1871, mayor of Gulgong in 1876 and 1899-1903 and a member of the Union Club. On 25 July 1865 in Hobart Town he married Charlotte Emily (d.1902), daughter of James Barnard. Rouse died at Guntawang on 2 March 1903, survived by three sons and a daughter. His estate was sworn for probate at over £12,400.

Richard junior was born on 15 May 1843 at Jericho, near Windsor, New South Wales, son of George Rouse (d.1888) and his wife Elizabeth, née Moore. He was educated at The King's School, Parramatta, and then learnt wool-classing. In 1867 he managed the Biraganbil stud flock near Mudgee, founded by his father in 1864 with rams and ewes bought from N. P. Bayly of Havilah and later from E. K. Cox of Rawdon. He kept careful pedigree records and bred sheep with fine strong wool of abnormal elasticity and won many prizes at the Mudgee, Dubbo and Warren shows. He was also noted for breeding race-horses, including the champion, Marvel, and was reputed one of the best judges of horses in the colony. He inherited Biraganbil in 1888 and held three other stations.

In May 1872 Rouse had 1000 shares in the new Biraganbil Gold Mining Co. Ltd. He was a councillor of the Agricultural Society of New South Wales, sometime president of the Gulgong Hospital, chairman of the Mudgee Pastures and Stock Board, a sheep director for Mudgee, a member of the Australian Jockey Club and a magistrate, although he rarely sat on the bench. He died at Biraganbil on 12 February 1906 and was buried in the Anglican section of Mudgee cemetery. He was survived by his wife Mary Helena (d.1922), daughter of Charles Bland Lowe of Goree, Mudgee, whom he had married on 29 July 1869, and by two sons and two daughters. His estate was valued for probate at nearly £24,000. His eldest son Leslie, solicitor, was an Australian Jockey Club stipendiary steward and keeper of the Australian Stud Book.
