| 84 | (Medical):The following comes from Luwana, Jane's sister. Jane was diagnosed with Leukemia and went to the cancer center in Cincinnati. The doctors tested Luwana and other close relatives for a match to do a stem cell transplant. Luwana was a match and went to Cincinnati for the transplant. She said Jane had already gone through treatments and was wasted down to nothing and had lost her hair. The transplant occurred without any problems, however Jane did not get any better. Instead she got worse and passed away three days after the transplant. Afterward they investigated and found that Jane didn't really have Leukemia, but another condition (Luwana couldn't recall what it was). With all of her treatments and the tranplant Jane's body had nothing left to fight with. Lance tried to sue the doctors, but was unsuccesful. However the doctor responsible was released and moved to TX. This was told to me yesterday, January 15th, 2008 by Luwana when I met her and Bob for lunch and is the best recollection I have of the story. JSR | Russell, Mary Jane (I211)

| 94 | (Research): ______________________________________________________ From "Am 24. Juni des Jahres 1622 kamen Teile von Tillys Heer ( das Regiment Graf Fürstenberg) in den Rodgau und brachten Not und Elend mit sich. Alles Vieh und sämtliche Naturalien wurden entwendet, so daß in jenem Jahr 155 Menschen an Hunger und Krankheit (vorwiegend an der Pest) starben. 1634 gab es abermals 104 Pestopfer. Die Familien Herold, Wüst, Krieg, West und Selig starben aus. Dazu kam noch, daß die Kaiserlichen in der hiesigen Gegend einfielen und die Lutheraner mit Drangsal dem Katholizismus zuzuführen suchten. Die Dudenhöfer waren von den plündernden Haufen und deren Greuel so entsetzt, daß sie lieber Haus und Hof verließen, um ihrer angestammten Konfession treu bleiben zu können. Zu dieser Zeit war ihnen ihr Pfarrer Perschbacher eine große Stütze. Er wanderte mit seinen noch 168 Gemeindegliedern nach Babenhausen, weil er hier Schutz zu finden glaubte. Dort starben die meisten Dudenhöfer während der Belagerung bis zum Ende des Krieges - insgesamt 120, weitere 22 sind verschollen. Die Dudenhöfer Gemarkung lag sieben Jahre wüst. 1642 kam als erster Hans Kratz aus Kleestadt und begann mit dem Ackerbau. Von ihm stammen alle ab, die den Namen Kratz tragen. Nach und nach kehrten die 26 noch in Babenhausen lebenden Dudenhöfer in ihren Heimatort zurück. Es waren dies Martin Hartmann, Johann Resch, Johann Nenner, Johann Kämmerer und deren Familien. " I did some basic translation and understand it as follows. "On 24 June 1622 parts of Tillys army (the Regiment Count Fürstenberg) came to Rodgau and brought misery. All the cattle and all materials were stolen, so that within a year 155 people had died of hunger and illness (mainly due to the plague). In 1634 there were another 104 plague victims. The families Herold, Wüst, Krieg, West and Selig became extinct. In addition the Imperial ones in the local area came in and Lutherans in misery were to supply the Catholics (or maybe the Lutherans were forced to be Catholic, not sure on this..JSR). The Dudenhöfer were so frightened of the plunderers and their atrocities that they left home, in order to be able to remain Lutheran. Minister Perschbacher helped them a lot. 168 residents moved to Babenhausen, because they felt they would find protection. There most Dudenhöfer died before the end of the war - altogether 120 people, another 22 withdrew (moved away?..JSR). The Dudenhöfer Gemarkung (the area around Dudenhofen??) lay abandoned seven years. In 1642 came first Hans Kratz of Kleestadt and began farming. From him descend all with the name Kratz. Gradually the 26 other Dudenhöfer living in Babenhausen returned to their homes. Among them were Martin Hartmann, Johann Resch, Johann Nenner, Johann Kämmerer and their families." ________________________________________________________ Resident of Dudenhofen in 1669 when Hans Peter was married. | Kämmerer, Johann (I11194)

| 97 | (Research): "At times Uncle Billy Rafert came home to visit a few days from San Diego. He had an injury, from war, in his leg and needed a cane. He was so handsome. He would take Edna and me to show downtown and treated us like queens. Such a gentleman! He is buried in San Diego military cemetery. I wrote to him and the landlady who owned the house where he stayed wrote me....he was so very fine and had lived there many years in retirement. He left some money to my aunt Em and a bit to Mom. But he always sent a check for $100 to her and she'd pay Uncle Charlie for coal, Charlie was Mom's brother." [Jottings by Alma Rafert Welp - 1995] 1880 Indianapolis City Directory shows Wm. E. Rafert, residence 139 E. Merrill, as a messenger for the First National Bank. 23 Nov 1902 William H. Rafert Petition the Probate Commissioner. William H. Rafert was declared to be officially alive by Probate Commissioner Walker yesterday on his own application. His application to the probate office was Intended to legalize his claim on the estate of a relative who died recently. Of this estate Edward H. Rafert, a brother of the claimant, was appointed the administrator and he learning of his brother's intention to come home, apportioned part of the estate to him. Rafert has been awav from Indianapolis since 1881 and had not been heard from during his absence. Under an Indiana statute a man who disappears from his home and is absent seven years Is legally dead and his estate is divided among his heirs. Per Death Certificate: Wm. Rafert was a 1st Sergeant in the US Army. He was in from 1883 to 1913. He came to CA (the last time) about 1904 and moved to San Diego in 1914. It also states that his body was cremated (Bonham Brother's Cematorium) on May 20, 1939. According to Doris H. Welp Russell his ashes were spread over the ocean. He Retired as a 1st Sgt. (115th Company). In 1911 he held the rank of 1st Class Gunner. During the period 1898 to 1900 he is listed as a Sgt. It was appropriate that Battery D, 3rd Artillery, was the first to occupy the new fort, for Battery D had been the last military unit to occupy the San Diego Mission, then a military post. That was back in 1858, when the battery was ordered into Washington Territory to fight Indians. Now, forty years later, a detachment of twenty soldiers from the same old battery arrived from San Diego Barracks, under 2nd Lt. George T. Patterson. That was on Feb. 2, 1898; on Feb. 15 Capt. Charles Humphreys and the rest of the battery arrived. In July 1900 the battery was ordered to China and saw action in the Boxer Uprising.

The sale had to do with the statute for transferring uses into possession, and Brockenbrough "may be in the actual possession of the premises and be therefore enabled to accept a grant of the inheritance thereof to him and his heirs." Brockenbrough and heirs would live on the property "during the full time of one whole year paying therefore the rent of one ear of Indian corn on the feast day of the birth of our Lord next ensuing if lawfully demanded." The property was located in Richmond County "Beginning at a marked red oak standing in the line of Bedwell and corner tree to Henry Fan, and running along the line of Bedwell to a white oak, corner tree newly marked, thence along a line of now marked trees down to a branch known by the name of Christopher's Branch, thence up the Maine branch to a line of marked trees that divides this land and ye land of Henry Fan, thence up the said line to the place where it first began; together with all houses, orchards and commodities." Signed Thomas (T his mark) Draper, Sarah (X her mark) Draper. Witnesses: Richard (RC) Cornelias and Thos. Dew. <../html/body_notes.html> 1 Aug 1722 - Thomas gave bond of 4000 pounds of tobacco to Brockenbrough to warrant the fulfillment of this deed. 31 Jul 1722 - (Recorded 1 Aug 1722) Thomas Draper, with the consent of Sarah, his wife, sold to Thomas Curtis for 3500 pounds of tobacco, all that parcel of 50 acres land in Farnham Parish and Richmond County on main Pocoson (a swamp) of Totesky Creek and on the south side of the Pocoson, and bounded by the Main Pocoson. Signed Thomas (T his mark) Draper, Sarah (S her mark) Draper. Witnesses: Richard Applebee, John Williams. 1 Aug 1722 - Thomas Draper and Sarah his wife acknowledge their release of the deed to Thos. Curtis for all that parcel of land containing fifty acres from a marked dogwood (the bounds are repeated as in the lease) already in his actual possession. It was a bad year for Thomas, 1723. He seems to have run afoul of the law a few times. But then we don't know the notorious swearer's side of the stories. 1723 '96 Peter Beams, servant to Thomas Draper, "did fugitively absent himself from his master'sservice for the space of three days and that [Thomas] expended seven hundred fifty pounds of tobacco in procuring him again." The court ordered that Peter Beams serve his master, or his assigns, six days for the three days absence and eleven months and one half for the seven hundred fifty pounds of tobacco after his time by indenture. 1723 - William Bockenbrough's action against Thomas Draper was dismissed, the Plaintiff not prosecuting. 4 Mar 1723 - Thomas Draper of North Farnham Parish was summoned to answer the presentment of the Grand Jury against him as being "a common and notorious swearer to the dishonor of Almighty God contrary to law, and the civil example of others, and this day appearing but offering nothing material to excuse himself." The court ordered that Thomas give good and sufficient security for his good behavior during the term of one year, and Thomas, together with William Brockenough, acknowledged themselves indebted in the sum of 20 Lbs. sterling. But if Thomas behaved "towards his said magistrate and all his leige people" then the fine would be void. <../html/body_notes.html> 4 Mar 1723 - John Buxton filed a Chancery suit against Thomas Draper, who had been paid one thousand eight hundred forty-four pounds of tobacco to build a house for Buxton. By consent of both parties, Anthony Sidner and William Hamock were appointed by the court in January to view the work already done by Thomas, and report in their opinion how much the work is worth in proportion to the one thousand eight hundred forty-four pounds of tobacco.
