He joined the National Cash Register Company in their Rochester, New York branch in 1924. Since then, he has held many jobs with this firm during the past 38 years, salesman, agent, instructor, divisional manager, assistant sales manager and now branch manager in Boston, Mass. For thirty years, he has been either training salesmen, supervising salesmen or selecting salesmen. His keen sense of the appropriate and his remarkable ability to "sell" his ideas, are major reasons for his outstanding success as a salesman and business leader. He has served Colgate University as Chairman of the Student Selection Committee in Eastern Massachusetts, and Director. and President of the Colgate Alumni Corporation. He is presently (1965) Treasurer of the Board of Trustees of Green Mountain College, Governor of the Massachusetts Society of Mayflower Descendants, Past President of Rotary, Vice-President of Vermont Historical Society, Member of the Board of Society of Colonial Wars and New England Genealogical and Historical Society.

|
| 828 | The China War of 1900-01 is more commonly referred to as the Boxer Rebellion. The Boxers formed a Chinese secret society known as the _I-ho-ch'uan_ - the Society of Righteous and Harmonious Fists (hence 'Boxers'). The Boxers and other similar societies aimed to eradicate all foreigners and Christians from China; the government under Dowager Empress Tzu His secretly supported these fanatical organisations. At the end of the 19th century the Royal Garrison Artillery, which was part of the Royal Artillery, was divided into 3 Divisions:
The Garrison Artillery was composed of 104 service companies in 1900, 40 of them in the UK, 37 in various colonies of the Empire and 27 in India. A company was commanded by a major with 6 or so officers, around 10 NCOs and 100 to 200 men. The uniform of Garrison Artillery was the same as Field Artillery except that they were more likely to wear trousers instead of boots and breeches. On their shoulder straps were the initials of the name of their Division and the number of their company. On 1 January 1902, the Divisional system was abolished and all companies RGA were re-numbered sequentially from 1 to 105. 2nd Company Southern Division became the 62nd Company RGA and the 15th Company Southern Division became the 91st Company RGA. The China 1900 Medal is normally named to one of these two companies. The combination of QSA and China was awarded to nearly 500 soldiers of the Royal Garrison Artillery. Two companies were formed in South Africa for service in China. The Gunners came from 15 Company Western Division RGA, 15 Company Southern Division RGA and 2 Company Southern Division RGA. The men all earned the QSA, with up to four clasps, and the China medal, without clasp. The combination is certainly unusual, but it was 43 RGA reservists who earned themselves a rare combination - QSA, China and KSA, having been sent back to South Africa following service in China. Much more can be learnt from the article written by Lt. Col. McaFarlane in the OMRS Journal Autumn 1993 - _'A slow boat to China - and back again'_ (Lt.Col.(Retd) A.M.Macfarlane), OMRS Journal, Autumn 1993, Volume 32, Number 3, pages 198-200: In May 1900, 15 W.D. received four 9.45in. B.L. Howitzers, manufactured at the Skoda Works in Austria. Although the last word in heavy artillery, they were never actually fired in anger in South Africa. However, early in July 1900, it was decided to send a siege train armed with these howitzers, under the command of Colonel T. Perrott, from South Africa to join the China Expeditionary Force in the defeat of the Boxer Rebellion. The siege train was to consist of:
2 SD had eight officers and 184 men. The siege train assembled at Cape Town where it embarked in S.S. Antillian on 18th July 1900 and sailed on 23 July. The ship arrived at Singapore on 13 August, left there on 15 August, docked at Hong Kong on 22 August and eventually reached Wei-hai-wei, the base for the Expeditionary Force, on 30 August. Of course, by that time, Pekin had been relieved and, apart from the odd raid, the Boxer Rebellion was as good as over. After two weeks spent on board ship, the siege train disembarked at Wei-hai-wei but, on 26 October, the two half companies [of the 15 SD and 15 WD] re-embarked on the S.S. Antillian and returned to Hong Kong for the winter, whilst 2 SD remained in garrison at Wei-hai-wei. None of the siege guns fired in anger in China. | THRALE, Inspector Thomas William (I223)

| 829 | The day before he died he went with a family party to the Tower of London.The next day he breakfasted with his father's clerks, bright as a berry. Later during the day, he suffered intense pain. A physician administered a medicine Daffy's Elixir. As he became desperately ill, his mother rushed to his bedside where he lay in agony. He spoke to his nurse and said: He died between 3 and 4 p.m. | THRALE, Henry Salusbury (I670)

| 832 | The family tree printed on page 198 of A Newer Thraliana by Richard Thrale shows an Elizabeth Thrale (as the daughter of Thomas Thrale and Mary Wilson, and the grand-daughter of Thomas Thrale and Anne Parsons) but shows her as being married to Charles Parsons in 1813. This is correctly shown on this family tree on Thrale.com as the following individual: http://www.thrale.com/sites/all/libraries/tng/getperson.php?personID=I281&tree=tree01 HOWEVER, the family tree printed on page 182 of A Newer Thraliana by Richard Thrale says that Elizabeth Thrale 1760 - 1816 (which it says is the Elizabeth Thrale that was the daughter of Thomas Thrale and Mary Wilson, and the grand-daughter of Thomas Thrale and Anne Parsons) was married to Thomas Burchmore 1760-1816. This family tree on Thrale.com, records Elizabeth, wife of Thomas Burchmore as a different individual, with unidentified parents and no children. http://www.thrale.com/sites/all/libraries/tng/getperson.php?personID=I492&tree=tree01 24 October 2016 - Further research is required | Elizabeth (I492)

| 834 | The fifth child of William and Jessie | SMITH, Ethel Edith Louisa May (I2246)
|
| 835 | The fifth son of a Denbigh glover, he was educated as a chorister at Chester Cathedral (where his fine voice and quick intelligence soon attracted influential patrons), moved on to London, and made a useful pilgrimage to Jerusalem - where he became an honorary "Knight of the Holy Sepulchre", whence the "Sir" sometimes attached to his name. In his early twenties, Clough moved to Antwerp, - the commercial capital of Northern Europe - as a "factor" (or manager) for Sir Thomas Gresham, 'the Queen's Merchant Royal' and it originator of the adage that 'Bad money drives at good'. Thus he became one of the leading loan - negotiator, suppliers of European goods (including smuggled armament), and gathering political intelligence for Queen Elizabeth's government. Though he had a passion for detailed reports, Clough was also a man of wide-ranging ideas: he was instrumental in founding the London Stock Exchange, and enthusiastically aided the Denbigh geographer Humphrey Llwyd, who called him 'the most complete man'. Having grown (in the words of a Denbigh saying) "as rich as a Clough", Richard briefly returned home in 1566-7, to marry the equally remarkable Katheryn of Berain and begin his 'prodigy' mansions of Bachygraig near Tremeirchion and Plas Clough, near Denbigh: built-in Antwerp style by Flemish craftsmen, these where the first brick houses in Wales. Then he returned to an increasingly war-torn Europe for further adventures - including arrest as a spy - only to die at Hamburg in 1570, aged scarcely 40. Clough's scheme for making the River Clwyd navigable thus remained unrealised, but he never forgot his origins. His heart (and some say his right hand) were sent home in a silver casket, to be buried at a now unmarked spot within St Marcella's parish Church near Denbigh. | CLOUGH, Sir Richard (I807)

|
| 839 | The following verses were written by her husband Walter after Lydia's death... "THE MOURNING HUSBAND. Though God o’erwhelms with sovereign stroke, And blasts my dearest pleasures here, His cheering smiles I’ll still invoke And love, and trust, and hope and fear. Though clouds may hide his smiling face, His chastenings, and his love unite, In darkest hours, his sovereign grace, Like bow of promise, cheers my sight. He leads me on through life’s dark path With future wisely hid from view; I feel the tokens of his wrath Mingled with blessings not a few. Such sorrow fills my wounded heart, As friends, or strangers, cannot tell; God has taken my better part, Yet I would worship, and be still. The world to me is clad in gloom, Its pleasures dim with grief, alloy, For lo! the dark insatiate tomb Hides now the relic of life’s joy. Yet hope inspires my soul to trust, And may that hope ne’er prove in vain, That Christ will raise that precious dust, And I shall see her yet again. Strong faith presents her to my sight, For ever fixed in heavenly home, Arrayed in robes of purest light And beckoning me with smiles to come. In glorious hopes, my soul’s delight, To live in day, without the night; No more to sin, no more to die, To live with God, and friends on high. By night, by day, my thoughts ascend, And rove through heavenly scenes above; Angels I pass, to meet my friend, And Saviour too, with equal love. But when the happy visions fade, I realize I’m here below— A pilgrim walking in the shade, Of death’s dark monument of woe." | SKINNER, Lydia (I561)
|
| 840 | The following verses written by her father were inscribed on her tombstone ... "In youth and health she meekly sought, And found the robe which Jesus wrought; In that arrayed, deathÂ’s vale she trod, And calmly went to meet her God." | THRALL, Cynthia Maria (I562)
|
| 841 | The GRO has a marriage for a Stanley V Thrale in the sept 1920 qtr at West Ham vol 4a 880. This Stanley V would have been aged 24 at that time | THRALE, Stanley Victor (I1040)
|
| 842 | The GRO lists a Sarah Thrale as dying in the June 1907 qtr in Staines aged 85. Vol 3a page 2. | THRALE, Sarah (I957)
|
| 843 | The informant on her death certificate is J. M. C. C. McCulloch "Aunt" who was present at the death | THRALE, Emily Maud (I1154)
|
| 844 | The Jamaica, Civil Registration Birth, Marriage, and Death Records, 1878-1930 at film number 001855874, lists a marriage between Mirian Emeline Miller and Eustace Augustus Brown (son of Thomas Miller) at Hanover, Green Island, Hanover, Jamaica. However the date of marriage is 7 Sep 1935, which is 14 years after the birth of their son. It is pretty likely that this marriage record is for Herbert Altamont Brown's parents, but some additional evidence would be nice before this is confirmed. | Family: Eustace BROWN / Emiline MILLER (F884)
|
| 845 | The Jamaica, Civil Registration Birth, Marriage, and Death Records, 1878-1930 on Ancestry.com shows a Ebenezer McLaggan (son of William Louis McLaggan) marrying Angelina Grant on 26 May 1907 in Saint Catherine, Saint Catherine, Jamaica. However, I suspect it may not be the right person as the marriage date seems too late, as his son married in 1908. However, the Jamaica, Civil Registration Birth, Marriage, and Death Records, 1878-1930 on Ancestry.com show that Angelina died on 25 Feb 1948 aged 90 (born about 1858). This in 1907 when she and Ebenezer married, she would have been aged 49. So perhaps this was a second marriage and perhaps the above is our Ebenezer? | MCLAGGAN, Ebenezer (I712)
|
| 846 | The marriage dat on page 6 of the Thrall Genealogy by Stephen D Thrall is incorrect, it was 4 years after she died! | Family: John Warham STRONG / Abigail THRALL (F318)
|
| 847 | The marriage ended with Christopher Waldron's death. | Family: Christopher WALDRON / Elizabeth THRALE (F162)
|
| 848 | The marriage of Levi Whiting Thrall into the Beecher family, made Henry Ward Beecher, the famous preacher, Harriet Beecher Stowe, the writer, and Govenor Hawley of Connecticut, close cousins. | THRALL, Levi Whiting (I1470)
|
| 849 | The most affluent, yet the last, of the line. Although inheriting Fairfolds before his twenty-first birthday, he surprisingly left Sandridge to seek his fortune, in which he succeeded. Whether he found happiness is another thing. He was obviously a man of resource, energy and courage, but his story before and after his death is marred by continual and unhappy conflict. | THRALE, John (I304)
|
| 850 | The National Burial Index for England and Wales records an Anne Norman, born 1732, buried 9 March 1806 in St Botolph, Boston, Lincolnshire, England | THRALE, Anne (I52)
