The Eldridge-Bawden Families: The Ancestry and Descendants of Stephen Bawden, born 1812 in Redruth, Cornwall, England, emigrated in 1860 to Rockingham Township, Scott County, IA, in the height of the coal-mining industry; and Duncan Campbell Eldridge, one of the first to build a shanty at the foot of Main Street for his wife, Rebecca Lippincott (of the publishing family) and son Charles Henry Eldridge in 1835.

This book was commissioned by John Duvall Bawden (dec 1992) for Alice Richardson Sloane, C.G. (dec Aug 2011), published by Anundsen Pub Co, Decorah, IA 1986, with over 200 pps, photos, and a name index, hardbound in forest green with gold letters, done without a computer, and very little, if any, coordination with the publisher. There are many typos and grammar edits to make.

It's my mission to give this reference some dignity...I'll certainly share. You're welcome to leave a public message or personal e-mail.

WPA Iowa Graves Registration - see website - I am entering many of Davenport, Iowa's Oakdale Memorial Gardens burials. If you'd like me to transfer them, email me or leave a msg at 47303245.

The image of the chough [chuff] is an artistic endeavor to portray the national bird of the Duchy of Cornwall. Its numbers were so low that it has been put on an extinction list but has started to come back. This is the spirit of the Cornish people. The bird is about the size of an American crow and is a carrion eater. It does have a red beak and feet.

Reininga
Carol:

I see where you are related to the Reininga line. I have been doing research for a descendant of Kate Felthouse - or Velhuis who is a sister of Ann . Any info you might have on this line would be appreciated. I will also share. You may e-mail me.

RE: Ethel Reininga
Their grandfathers--Ernest Miller Hall and Miller Hall were brothers. I already had memorials for some of the Halls, so it was just connecting the dots.
Good luck in your search and research!

RE: Reininga - Forest Home
Done. Interestingly, Ethel Hall Reininga was Ernest Hemingway's second cousin. But you already knew that, right?
