Dear Joe and cousins,

This is a now treasured Brown family photo which my mother May Murphy Thibaudeau always had on display. After-all, they were the family she was raised by and I assume she even watched them take it and perhaps felt rather left out or confused ..or perhaps this was just prior to any of the Brown girl weddings and she was not yet born but she spoke of Clem being a rambunctious boy..more like a brother to her and Dode close enough in age that she felt like she was her sister. (In this photo, Laura looks very strong and healthy but she died just 18 months after May was born)

From Aunt Pat

Once again I am scrutinizing the Brown Family photo. If you will take a look at it----check Laura Brown Murphy, first on the left middle row. Third finger (ring) left hand---she is wearing two rings. One looks like a plain gold wedding band, the other like a signet ring. Laura was married July 21, 1907, died November 14, 1909. May Murphy Thibaudeau was born May 8, 1908.

In my estimation the Brown family photo was done sometime between July 21, 1907 and June 22, 1908.

5/31/05 Rose MarTwohig, 79, of Armstrong died peacefully on Tuesday, May 31, 2005, at St. Nicholas Hospital in Sheboygan after a valiant battle with multiple myeloma and plasma cell leukemia.
She was born in the township of Osceola on June 28, 1925, to Thomas and Mamie O’Brien Scannell. On Sept. 26, 1959, Rose Mary married Robert E. Twohig at Our Lady of Angels Church in Armstrong. It was a celebration of love joining two Irish families.
Rose Mary attended Mitchell School, Roosevelt Junior High and graduated from St Mary’s Springs High School in 1943. She continued her education at Oshkosh State Teachers’ College, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in education. Rose Mary was a dedicated teacher. She began her 30-year teaching career at Horace Mann Rural School and went on to teach at Mitchell and Dundee rural schools, teaching all eight grades. She then continued her career in the Campbellsport School District for five years.
After her marriage in 1959 she took time off to raise a family. Bob and Rose Mary made their home on the Twohig family farm with their daughters MaryAnn, Patti and Robbie. Rose Mary’s value of education was instilled in them, as each pursued a career in the field of education. In recent years, she cherished being “Moma” to her grandchildren.
In the fall of 1974, Rose Mary returned for another 15 years of teaching at Campbellsport Elementary School, retiring in 1990. Through her years of teaching she influenced hundreds of students, many of whom remained in contact with her, remembering her teaching style, her wit and the gleam in her eye.
Her service to education didn’t stop in the classroom. She served on the Northeastern Education Association Executive Board for many years, early in her career was chairman of the State Reading Group, was a member of the Campbellsport Education Association, Wisconsin Education Association, and the National Education Association. Upon her retirement Rose Mary enjoyed serving as reporter for seven years and secretary for eight years of the Fond du Lac Area Retired Educators Association.
In June she was to receive the status of Honored Member of the Wisconsin Retired Educators’ Association. Her retirement also gave her the opportunity to celebrate her Irish heritage by becoming active in the Irish History Club of Fond du Lac. Over her years of participation she held a variety of offices including secretary, treasurer and president of the Irish History Club.
Rose Mary was able to share her enjoyment of music throughout her life. She sang with Jack Wenzlaff and his band, as well as a number of other local musicians. Later, she was a 4-H music leader and in her retirement served as an organist at St. Mary’s in Eden. Whether it was “McNamara’s Band” or the “Celtic Alleluia,” she brought enjoyment to those who heard her.
Rose Mary is survived by her husband, Bob of Armstrong; her daughters, MaryAnn (Chad) Reingold of Studio City, Calif., Patti (David) Marcinko of Oswego, Ill., and Robbie Twohig of Burlington; three grandchildren, Micaila Kelly and Egan Robert Marcinko, and Lilly Rose Reingold.
She is further survived by her nephews, Mike, Edward and Gerry; nieces, Mary Narges and Shirley Straub; her brothers-in-law, Dr. George Twohig and Leo Twohig; sisters-in-law, Patricia Twohig, Roseann Twohig and June Twohig; close cousin Robert Scannell (Bunny) of Kewaskum; and many other relatives.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Thomas and Mamie; her brothers, James and George (Marie); her sister, Isabell; her nephew, Patrick; her brothers-in-law, David and John Twohig, and her sisters-in-law, Laura May, Betty, Catherine and Florence Twohig, Nora (Herb) Niederehe and Margaret (Jerry) Fitzgerald.
Rose Mary celebrated her strong faith and family throughout her life. Along with these, she appreciated the value of education, the rural school and her Irish heritage, all of which she cherished.

An Irishman named O'Malley went to his doctor after a long illness. The doctor sighed and looked O'Malley in the eye and said, "I've some bad news for you. You have cancer, and it can't be cured, you'd best put your affairs in order." O'Malley was shocked but being a solid character, he managed to compose himself and walk from the doctor's office into the waiting room, where his son was waiting. "Well son, we Irish celebrate when things are good, and we celebrate when things don't go well. In this case, things aren't so well. I have cancer. Let's head to the pub and have a few pints". After 3 or 4 pints the two were feeling a little less somber. There were some laughs and some more beers. They were eventually approached by some of O'Malley's friends, who were curious as to what the two were celebrating. O'Malley told them they were drinking to his impending end. He told his friends, "I have been diagnosed with AIDS." The friends gave O'Malley their condolences, and they had a couple of more beers. After the friends left, O'Malley's son leaned over and whispered his confusion. "Dad, I thought you told me that you were dying of cancer, and you just told your friends that you were dying of AIDS!" O'Malley said, "I don't want any of them sleeping with your Mother after I am gone." You gotta love the Irish

James Mahoney

2005-04-15T16:19:00.000-05:00

(From The Reporter, May 20, 1946)
Descendants Mark Date With Picnic At Site Where He Pitched Tent
Descendants of James Mahoney, who 100 years ago today first set foot on the soil of what is now Eden, Fond du Lac County, held a family reunion picnic today on the site where Mr . Mahoney first pitched his tent a century ago. After attending a high mass for him in the Eden church, the daughters and son and numerous grandchildren visited the cemetery where he and other member of the family are buried. The story of Mr. Mahoney’s arrival here takes up a good share of Eden history. On May 20, 1846, Mahoney, a boy of 19 arrived in Eden. He came by boat by the way of the Great Lakes and Lake Winnebago from Canadaigua, N.Y., to Sheboygan to join a group of eight surveyors. His only sister, Ann, the wife of one of the young surveyors, had written him of the beauty of the surrounding country. They had pitched their tent some months previous on what is now known as the John Killilea farm west of Eden village near a spring of fresh water, a requisite to a tenting place as they neither had nor could they buy and "old Oaken bucket" to draw water from a well if they had one. Mr Mahoney described Eden as a veritable paradise of beautiful trees and flowers. He spoke of the wild crabapple trees and plum trees being in full bloom besides the lillies, violets, honeysuckle, ferns and many other wild flowers of all colors; the beauty and song of

EDEN HISTORY TOLD IN PIONEER'S CHRONICLECon. from Pg. 2
the birds. On his trip from Sheboygan he hired an Indian with a pony to guide him through the wilderness. There were no roads, bridal paths or bridges in those days. The first settlement in what is now the Town of Eden was made in November, 1845 by Joseph Carr and sons, John and Sam, who hewed lumber for a log house and which was the foundation for the first settlement in the Town of Eden. In February 1846, Samuel Rand and Peter Vandervort came from the East and put up log houses near the spring at the foot of the hill now owned by H. F. Martin. On May 20, 1846 James Mahoney arrived to make his home followed later by A. C. Bishop, Daniel McCarthy, Michael Mahoney, Nicholas Martin, Jeremiah McCarthy, John Lynch, John Flynn, Michael Salter, J. C. Bishop, Florence McCarthy, and others. They obtained their land by patent from President James K. Polk. The first crops, raised in 1847, were of such abundance as to exceed by far the expectations of the hopeful settlers. In the fall of 1847 large numbers of settlers began to arrive to make their homes or to pre-empt land upon which to locate in the spring. There were Irish, English, Germans, Swedes and Norwegians, and Yankees from New York and New England.
Name Is Chosen
At this time, James Mahoney was present at a meeting called at the home of Peter Vandervort for the purpose of selecting a name for the town, as Wisconsin was soon to be admitted as a state. Mrs. Samuel Rand, one of the ladies present, was called Eve. One of the members proposing names was Adam Holiday who commented at great length upon the beauties of the flowers, trees, birds, lakes, streams, and fertile land. He finally said, " Adam lived in the garden of Eden." A chorus of voices shouted out, "We also have our Eve, so the town will be named Eden!" These early settlers lived in log cabins made home hewed logs. Greased papers was used for windows. At first they had earthen floors, and later on they used rough boards for flooring. The furniture had consisted of home made benches, tables, bedsteads and cupboards. The settlers learned to grind their corn and wheat with what they called a mortar and pestle, a device used by the Indians. The mortar consisted of a large stone hollowed out on the top. The pestle, which was also a stone was shaped like a hammer that broke or ground the grain or corn and the hollow in the mortar protected it from waste. The farming implements were very crude and home made. Two limbs or sticks fastened in V shape were used for a plow. They cut their grain at first with a scythe, raked it up and bound it into bundles by hand. Later they used a cradle and then a machine that would cut the grain but it was raked off by hand and left for hand binders. The Marsh harvester was the first binder although the grain was bound by men who rode on the machine. A few years later, McCormick brought out the first self-binder which has been greatly improved. The settlers threshed their grain at first with a flail. Later, they used the horsepower and then the steam thresher outfit. Their farm work was done with ox teams.
Neighbors Were Indians
In the early days of the settlement the principle neighbors were the Indians. The settlers found them very congenial and if well treated they shared their wigwam, food, and dried meat with the settlers. There were no roads in those days, only foot trails through the forest not wide enough for a wagon. When the settlers walked to Green Bay, Sheboygan, or Milwaukee to have their axes sharpened or to buy the new ones, they blazed the trail by hacking the trees with their hatchets, which would enable them to find the trail homeward. Later they drove ox teams or crude wagons for supplies. This took about two weeks to go and come from Milwaukee or Green Bay if the weather was good. In a rainy season, it sometimes took a month to make the trip due to fording swollen streams, rivers and creeks and getting stuck in the mud which was fathomless in some places. They figured they needed supplies once in every three months and some of the settlers banded together and couple of the men went each time alternating and in that way each member had to go about once a year. It was very hard to get money enough for the trip although there was no fare to pay. There was feed for the

oxen to be provided, living expenses, and their supplies to be paid for. Wheat to be ground into flour was taken by ox team to a grist mill in Mayville, the trip taking two days. The social functions were principally were corn husking bees, the older folks doing the husking while the younger ones danced to the tune of "Money Musk" or "The Virginia Reel" played on the violin or accordion. There were also quilting bees when the women and girls sewed or tied quilts all day and the men joined them for a social evening of games and song. There was also a Granger society which had a very large enrollment after the population increased. There had been a fierce Indian massacre in Minnesota in 1861 and in the fall of 1862 some one started a cry of an Indian attack. The news spread like wildfire and the settlers gathered up their children and supplies and started the oxen on the run for a place of refuge. Mrs Mahoney was very ill in bed, but Mr Mahoney bundled her up in a feather bed and they all went to her father’s home for protection. Most of the settlers loaded their families and supplies on a wagon with an ox team and made haste to get to Fond du Lac for some kind of organized protection. On the Tripp farm about four miles south of Fond du Lac, an Indian was employed to chop wood and when he saw the fast moving cavalcade going past he got curious to know what was going on and he ran to the road with his ax to ask the reason for the excitement. When they saw him coming they thought he was the first attacker and they lashed the oxen into a wild gallop to escape him. They arrived in Fond du Lac and waited overnight. Nothing happened, so they peacefully went homeward again. The first railroad, called the Air line, was built through this territory in 1873. Later the name was changed to the North Western. The West Bend Road was the first wagon road built connecting Milwaukee with Fond du Lac.
New Crops Added
When the settlers were able to get better machinery they raised potatoes, rye and oats to add to the corn and wheat. A store and grist mill was built in Eden by A. Alderman in 1873. A new steam elevator replacing the old one was built by L. Batterson from which they shipped their wheat and other products. A lime kiln was opened by B. Potter, which was sold to Nast Brothers who developed it into a million dollar industry providing work in slack time for farmers. A cheese factory was erected and managed by E. B. Wescott which was the starting of the dairy industry there. In the early days the teachers used to board around with different families of the district. The terms of school were two or three months of the year. They received as low as $1.50 per week for their services. In the present school districts the terms are nine months with salaries ranging from $1800 to $2200 per year.
Personal History
Mr. Mahoney came from Ireland in 1844. He worked in New York for Sam Steele, a rich industrialist, until he had enough saved to pay for his transportation from Ireland and his way to Wisconsin. Upon arriving in Wisconsin, he pre-empted the farm know as the Pioneer farm of 144 acres from the government. It is located three-quarters of a mile west of where the Village of Eden now stands. In 1870 he purchased Brook farm consisting of 107 acres adjoining the Village of Eden. He erected a modern farm home on this farm and took up residence in 1900. After coming to Eden in 1846 he found it very difficult to earn money with which to pay for and improve the land. The grants of land from the government cost $1.65 per acre, but they also needed money for machinery and supplies, so he worked in Wisconsin during the spring and summer and when the grain was threshed returned to New York as

New York as a coachman for his old boss, Mr. Steele, at nine dollars a month. That was considered very high wages. He did this for seven years. In 1855 he was united in marriage to Miss Mary Kelly, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Patrick Kelly, early pioneers of the Town of Byron. Eight children were born to them and Mrs. Mahoney was taken sick and died. In 1873 he was united in marriage to Miss Catharine Twohig, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. B. Twohig, pioneer residents of the Town of Osceola, and a teacher in the public schools of the county. Four children were born of this union. The names of James Mahoney’s children are: Patrick Mahoney, Mrs. Ann Mahoney Buckley, Mrs. Margaret Mahoney Cunningham, James Mahoney, Michael Mahoney, Mrs. Mary Mahoney Killilea, Daniel Mahoney, Mrs. Elizabeth Mahoney Carr, Mrs. Nora Mahoney Flood, Steven Mahoney, Mrs. Katheryn Mahoney O’Brien, and William F. Mahoney. Mrs. William Carr, Mrs. George Flood, Mrs. John O’Brien and William Mahoney are the four surviving of the immediate family. There are also 26 grandchildren, 49 great-grandchildren and 9 great-great-grandchildren. The Mahoney home was a meeting place for years for the younger set whose principle pleasures at that time were kitchen dances, the music furnished by violin, flute, organ, or piano. He always gave liberally of time and money for those in need and for civic improvement and educational needs. He provided means for seven of the members of his family to become county school teachers. Mr Mahoney joined St. John’s Church in Byron when the parish was organized, helped to build the church that was started in 1846 and attended services there until 1867. In 1867 he joined St. James in South Eden which was nearer his home and gave liberally of labor and money to help build that church. In 1888 he helped organize and work for subscriptions of money to help build St. Mary’s Church in Eden Village. He died at the age of 89 at his farm home in the Village of Eden on June 16, 1914, after a few days of illness. Mrs. James Mahoney died December 5, 1916, at Eden. They are buried in St. Mary’s Cemetery near the Village.

"Caught anything?"
"Ach, nae a bite,"
"What are ye usin' fer bait?"
"Worms"
"Let me see it," said O'Bannon.
MacAndrews lifted the line from the water and handed it to his cousin. O'Bannon took out his flask of potcheen and dipped the worm in it. He handed it back to MacAndrews, who cast his line once more.
As soon as the worm hit the water, his rod bent over double, the line screaming out.
"Have ye got a bite?" asked O'Bannon.
"No!" shouted MacAndrews, fighting with the rod,
"The worm's got a salmon by the throat!"

Ireland Declares War On Iraq

2005-03-02T10:33:00.000-06:00

Saddam Hussein was sitting in his office wondering whom to invade next when his telephone rang.
--
"Hello, Mr. Hussein!", a heavily accented voice said. "This is Paddy down at the Harp Pub in County Sligo, Ireland. I am ringing to inform you that we are officially declaring war on you!"
--
"Well, Paddy," Saddam replied, "this is indeed important news! How big is your army?"
--
"Right now," said Paddy, after a moment's calculation, "there is myself, my cousin Sean, my next door neighbor Seamus, and the entire dart team from the pub. That makes eight!"
--
Saddam paused. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have one million men in my army waiting to move on my command."
--
"Begorra!", said Paddy. "I'll have to ring you back!"
--
Sure enough, the next day, Paddy called again. "Mr. Hussein, the war is still on! We have managed to acquire some infantry equipment!"
--
"And what equipment would that be, Paddy?" Saddam asked.
--
"Well, we have two combines, a bulldozer, and Murphy's farm tractor."
--
Saddam sighed. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 16,000 tanks and 14,000 armored personnel carriers. Also, I've increased my army to 1-1/2 million since we last spoke."
--
"Saints preserve us!" said Paddy. "I'll have to get back to you."
--
Once again, Paddy rang again the next day. "Mr. Hussein, the war is still on! We have managed to get ourselves airborne! We've modified Harrigan's ultra-light with a couple of shotguns in the cockpit, and four boys from the Shamrock Pub have joined us as well!"
--
Saddam was silent for a minute and then cleared his throat. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 10,000 bombers and 20,000 fighter planes. My military complex is surrounded by laser-guided, surface-to-air missile sites. And since we last spoke, I've increased my army to TWO MILLION!"
--
"Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!", said Paddy. "I'll have to ring you back."
--
Sure enough, Paddy called again the next day. "Top o' the mornin', Mr.Hussein! I am sorry to tell you that we have had to call off the war."
--
"I'm sorry to hear that," said Saddam. "Why the sudden change of heart?"
--
"Well," said Paddy, "we've all had a long chat over a few pints, and decided there's no way we can feed two million prisoners."
--
God Bless the Irish! Have a great day and keep on smiling!!!

President Bush Gets A Rug

2002-08-08T07:44:00.000-05:00

Kevin & Brian Twohig produced a 12' x 12' carpet with a giant "W" on it for President Bush's visit on Tuesday, July 13th. Twohig's started working on the rug on Monday morning, when the President's advance team visited the new showroom to select the colors and map out the design. The end result was a gray and black rug with the large "W" and the words "The President." One of the best parts is that the Bush/Cheney team loved the finished product.

There has passed out of this community and we deplore the loss, a true lady, upright, honorable as the good and brave are. She has been called with the Angels of God and when lonely hours make home lonesome, consider the fact she is before the throne of God to beseech Him to grant you courage and strength until we meet again at Heaven's gate.Surviving are her parents, four sisters, Mrs. George Twohig, Mrs. Frank Beggan, Mrs. John Pesch, Edith, a nurse at St. Joseph's hospital in Milwaukee; two brothers, Joe, at home and Clement at Camp Grant.

The death of Patrick H. Mahoney, one of the most prominent residents of Eden, occured at St. Agnes hospital at Fond du Lac, at 3:25 o'clock last Friday morning, following a comparatively short but severe illness. Four weeks ago Mr. Mahoney was engaged in loading some boxes of paint on a wagon at Eden station. As he was carrying one of the boxes, the corner of it struck him in the side, causing apparently only a slight bruise. An abscess however, developed and Mr. Mahoney was taken to the hospital, where he could have every possible medical assistance. On April 4th an operation was performed and for a time his condition was not such as to be alarming, but later on complications set in and he gradually weakened, the end coming at an early hour on Friday morning. Mr. Mahoney's death came as a great shock to a large circle of acquaintances and friends. He was a man who made friends easily and who had the faculty of keeping them, it being said that he was without an enemy. He was born in the town of Eden and was 59 years of age. He had made Eden his home practically all his life. Besides a devoted wife, he leaves to mourn, a stepmother, five brothers, James H., of Nashua, Is.; M.

County Cork

1991-09-03T21:15:00.000-05:00

County Cork (Contae Chorcaí in Irish) is the most southwesterly and the largest of the modern counties of Ireland. The county is often referred to as "The Rebel County" because it has often taken a position in major conflicts different to that of most of Ireland. The county's attractions include the Blarney Stone and Cobh (formerly Queenstown), the port where many Irish emigrants boarded for their voyage to the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, or South Africa. Cork City, the county's capital, is the second largest ciy in the Republic of Ireland
The remote west of the county, known as West Cork, is a popular destination for tourists, who visit the small villages and islands including Sherkin Island, Clear Island and Dursey Island. Mizen Head, the "southwesternmost point in Ireland" is also in West Cork, as is Sheep's Head.
In recent years land in the far west of the county has become in high demand internationally, and large numbers of EU citizens have settled in the area, along with celebrities such as Jeremy Irons and director Neil Jordan. West Cork is noted for its rugged natural beauty, fine beaches and distinct social atmosphere, which is more relaxed than most of the country.
West Cork has a disporpotionately large population of artisans, musicians, poets and playwrights.
In 1601 the decisive battle of Kinsale (Cath Cionn tSáile) took place in County Cork, which was to lead to British domination of the island of Ireland for centuries.
County Cork has two gaeltacht areas where the Irish language is still the primary medium of everyday speech. These are Múscraí in the north of the county and Oileán Chléire, or Cape Clear, an island in the west accessible by ferry.

OSCEOLA
The name of the famous chief of the Florida Indians is perpetuated in the name ofthis town - Township 14 north, of Range 19 east.

It is rich in timber, small lakes,fish and wild waterfowl. The town was named by W. R. Longstreet. It was firstsettled, probably, in 1845, by Washington Noble, James Farr, and Peter Radliff, atwhat is now Waucousta. About eight months later, W. R. Longstreet, JohnBeeson, William Mitchell and Silas Allen settled at the same place, and JohnGraham, William Oliver, John Airhart, Joseph Cavanagh and others soon aftersettled in other parts of the town.
The first birth was in William Olivers family in 1847; Byron, son of John andLouisa Graham, was born March 14, 1849.
The first marriage was that of Washington Noble to Helen Airhart.
In February, 1849, the infant daughter of Michael and Ellen Scannell died, andlater the same year, Mrs. Noble died - the first death in Osceola.
The first election was held in April, 1851, when the town was set off from Eden. Rev. J. W. Whitney was elected Chairman; W. R. Longstreet, Superintendent ofSchools; William Mitchell, Clerk; Leander Mayhew, Treasurer.
In 1850, Sarah J. Walters taught the first school, at the house of N. Carey. In thewinter of that year a schoolhouse was erected on Section 8. The town nowcontains seven good schoolhouses. The first sermon was preached in WilliamMitchells house, by Rev. John W. Whitney, in 1847; probably the first churchedifice was built in 1855 or 1856, on Section 2, by the Catholics.
The first post office was called Osceola, as it is still. C. W. Prescott was the firstPostmaster.
Post offices are now open at Dundee, Waucousta and Armstrongs Corners - thelatter named after Asher Armstrong.
The first saw-mill and first grist-mill were built at Waucousta, by John Beeson -the former probably in 1848; the latter two or three years later. Both were onMiddle Branch of the Milwaukee River.
C. W. Prescott entered the first land - northeast quarter of Section 9 - in 1846.
William Crosby built the first cheese factory in 1877, at Waucousta.
The first Irish settler was Michael Scannell, 1848; first%

Eden
History of Eden TownshipJenny Tripp Sievers, 1926
In a southeasterly direction from the city of Fond du Lac, bounded on the North by Empire, east by Osceola, south by Ashford, and west by Byron, lies the town of Eden in Fond du Lac County named after the habitation of our first parents.
Upon research we find that probably Ebenezer Dacon was the first settler in the Town of Eden in 1843, and in 1845 Joseph Carr and Adam Holiday settled here very nearly at the same time. In the following February Samuel Rand and Peter Vandervoort came with their families. Also Quimby Hayes settled here in the year of 1846. Archie Bishop and brother Stephen A. purchased 300 acres of land in Eden in 1846, part of which Ebenezer Dacon was living upon. Soon these were followed by E. Foster, Charles Mitchell, H. J. Carter, James Mahoney, James Odekirk, E. McEnroe, Aaron Walters, Patrick Brennan, Joseph & David Denniston, George Averill, Isaac Adriance, A. Pierron, W. S. Cogshall, P. Ryan, Nicholas Martin, Lucine Batterson, Eugene St. Mary, Peter, James, & Christopher Flood and many others. The town was first settled by the Irish in the south, while many from New York, New England and Germans were among the early settlers.
The first white child born in the Town of Eden was a daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Adam Holiday in 1847. The first boy born in the town who also voted in it was John L. Martin.
The first crops were raised in 1847, which proved to be much more abundant than expected. In early days there were no roads. The route of travel lay along Indian trails, twisting here and there and marked by "blazed" trees leading from the hut of one settler to that of another around a hill or swamp.
Milling was usually done at Watertown or Mayville, the journey being made by ox team. But many times a large coffee mill in the neighborhood would grind wheat, corn and buckwheat for their flour. The principal diet was potatoes, wild game, bread or biscuit made in many instances of unbolted meal ground in a huge steam-boat coffee mill. Tea was substituted by leaves of a small shrub known in those days as "prairie tea" and a better article than the poor Japanese tea of today. Coffee was expensive – corn, barley, rye, and acorns were used instead. "Boughten" coffee was a luxury. Before the year 1850, many settlers hauled their grain to Sheboygan market and incoming families and their household goods, if any, were brought to this locality in this way. The price received for grain was indeed small compared to prices of today. Edward McEnroe who settled here in 1847 raised 500 bushels of oats, which he sold for 10 cents a bushel. Money was scarce and many settlers had but a few cents left after paying the government for their land.
At what is known as "Vandervoort’s Big Spring" near the village of Eden was once an Indian village, and since the white man has tilled the soil, great numbers of copper and flint spear and arrowheads, stone axes, ornaments and grinding tools have been found. There were encampments of Indians in the town in early days. Nearly every instance they proved to be good neighbors. In the integrity of the red men we have one example. During the winter of 1847, an Indian named Ki-A-mek (Falling Snow) called at a settler’s shanty and noticing a splendid rifle hanging on its hooks, desired the loan of it for "Two Moons". He made his request in broken English and showed that he was blind in the right eye, where a papoose had shot an arrow. The rifle was given him and nothing more was seen of the Indian or gun until the day that the two months expired. Then old Ki-a-mek came wallowing through deep snow to the white man’s "wigwam", delivered up the gun and presenting a large deer, "slain", he said proudly, "by my squaw". It is said that a small patch of the original Indian planting ground can still be distinctly seen in the eastern part of the township never having been disturbed since the Indians planted their corn.
In the year 1848, William and Thomas Kelly settled in north Eden and started chopping trees. About 4 o’clock every afternoon they would hear an unusually strange noise issuing from the dense thicket. William would say to Tom, "Let’s be going, it’s a bear or a wolf". They would at once stop work and go home. Charles Clark, the hunter, chancing to go that way hunting stopped where the Kelly’s were chopping. They told Clark that if he would wait until 4 o’clock, that he would be rewarded by securing a large bear. Clark, of course, waited and about 4 o’clock the noise commenced. "There," exclaimed Kelly, "that’s him". "Why you fools" said Clark, "that is only a screech owl, I can see him" and he pulled the trigger and the huge bird tumbled to the racket. "Well now" said Kelly to Clark "if we had known that last fall we would have had 4 acres more land cleared."
There were no pumps in early days, a windless was used, or either the quaint sweep and pole, with the old oaken bucket attached. The dress of the pioneer often was unique buckskin coat and pants, a squirrel or fawn skin cap, and buckskin moccasins. Buckskin was obtained from the Indians for a mere trifle. The boys wore shoes made of boat legs by the neighborhood cobbler. These shoes would last the wearer two years. Young men of those days didn’t wear ready made clothing. Clothes were manufactured by their good mothers and sisters and were often misfit.
George Averill who settled in the Town of Eden was the first shoemaker for miles around. A number of people came from other towns to have their shoes made. The first marriage in the town took place at George Averill’s in 1847. The contracting parties were a man by the name of Baldwin and Miss Margaret Bell, Reverend M. L. Noble of Fond du Lac tied the knot. For pass time, the young people had their spelling, singing school, and debating clubs. Old time "shindigs" where the old and young people would dance the Virginia Reel, Scotch Reel, Money Musk, Firemen’s Dance, Devil’s Dream and Jigs all were heartily enjoyed.
The first schoolhouse was built of round tamarack logs, rough benches lined inside. This school was located just north of the present Village of Eden at the four corners on Hwy 55. The first schoolmaster was Anthony Briggs in 1849. Miss Charlotte Berry ( Mrs. M. Briggs) was the first school mistress who taught in the same school in 1850. She was the mother of F. O. Briggs, present postmaster of Eden. The system of teaching school was simple-reading, writing, arithmetic and geography were the studies. Peter Vandervoort was the first local preacher in Eden, holding services at the settler’s log houses. St. James Catholic Church held services in a log house built in 1849 until Rev. J. McGowan built the present structure in 1865. This church is now served by Rev. J. B. McFarland, who resides in the Village of Eden and has been priest at St. Mary’s church there for over 25 years.
In 1847, a meeting was called to name the town, after proposing and voting on many names, Adam Holiday arose and said "that Adam dwelt in the Garden of Eden" and he proposed the name of Garden of Eden. W. S. Cogshall said the name was too long and argued to leave off "the Garden". His suggestion was carried unanimously. The first town meeting was held at Vandervoort’s in 1848. Peter Vandervoort was chosen chairman and Samuel Rand town clerk.
A Post Office was established by Peter Vandervoort in 1850. He had charge of this office until 1872. A post office was also established in east Eden in 1853 with Egbert Foster as postmaster. This office was an important one until the building of the railroad. It had daily mail, besides twice a week distributing office for Osceola, Mitchell, Armstrong Corners, and Rathburn. Work on the Airline Railroad was started in 1871 and before the end of the year the road was sold to the Chicago Northwestern Railway Company and was completed in 1873. This railroad runs diagonally across the town and Eden was made a station. M. L. Batterson plotted the village and erected an elevator. The first wheat from this station was by Isaac Adriance who settled in the town 1848. Stores were built by A. Edelman and N. Altenhofen and a hotel was erected by John Botzen. In 1880 a large lime quarry was opened in the northwestern part of the town operated by Nast Brothers with railroad switches into the quarry making carload shipments of lime and stone to different parts of the country. The first Protestant Church in the town, built 1861, in the north central part of the town by Rev. J. A. Davenport who came to Eden in 1849, who was always ready to deliver a sermon. This church was rebuilt twenty years ago and is now owned by the German Evangelic Society. Rev. A. E. Happe of Fond du Lac is pastor. Eden Station is now considered a good marketing center. Seventy-three cars of livestock were shipped from this point during 1925 for the cooperative shipping association besides a number of other cars shipped by local buyers. It is also a good potato and grain market. Sugar beets are being raised quite extensively in the past few years. In 1925, a pea canning factory was built in the Village of Eden. Farmers harvested their first crop of peas, thus adding a new industry. The village now has a church, depot, post office with a rural route, three general stores, two hardware stores, one meat market, one hotel, a bank, a town hall, two blacksmiths, two garages, one restaurant, a concentrating plant, two elevators, harness shop, telephone office, Modern Woodmen, and Foresters Hall, also several modern dwellings.
Both the Foresters and Modern Woodmen had large membership. There is also a Royal Neighbors Society and a Community Club of about 50 members. There are now nine school houses in the town, some of them modern, every equipment for carrying on school work. Teachers are hired for nine months, salaries average $130 a month.
In the year 1923, State Hwy 55 was built across the township, which now is one of most traveled highways in the state from north to south. It is the only concrete road in the eastern part of the county. There are also a number of county highways in the town. At the time of the Civil War, many from our town answered the call to serve. Those of whom returned have since passed away. We do not know of one Civil War veteran living in the town now who went to war from here. Several boys went to World War, many of them were in some of the most important battles fought. Those of us at home helped our country by buying Liberty loans and subscribing to Y. M. C. A., Salvation Army, and etc. Our town had one of the largest Red Cross chapters in the county. Old and young helped to make this society a grand success. Nearly all the farms are occupied by their owners. There are very few rented farms in the town. Nearly all the farms are equipped with modern machinery and tractors. As yet, there are very few farms with electric lights, running water, but practically every one have an automobile, while some have farm trucks. The population of our town today is about 1450.
