Pectoris with contributing factors of Mitral Insufficiency ——signed by Gno.
W. King November 7th, 1917, South Point, Ohio.

I came across a Contract and Lease made between Daniel Brubaker and
his son David T. Brubaker in possession of Helen and Everette Leroy
Brubaker. This lease is signed by
Daniel Brubaker, David T. Brubaker, and Salome A. Brubaker. It pertains with the leasing of land on the
Ohio river, the upkeep of the mansion which stands there, allowing for Daniel
to live on three acres of this land, the well-being and care of David Todd’s
father Daniel, and the 1/4 return to Daniel Brubaker on all the crops which come
from this land, and also last but not least, the payment of $700.00 to Julia
Elkins, David T’s sister, over the course of 3 years following Daniel’s death, as
part of her inheritance from the Estate.
This contract was to have been binding for the entire natural life of
Daniel Brubaker, so he knew that he could be cared for the rest of his life in
the way in which he had grown accustomed to.
The date for this binding contract was June 11, 1866, two years before
the death of his father.
On the top of this contract is a note which reads: For Value Received, I hereby release all my
claim in and under this Instrument and the estate described herein. Dated 1871 in Ironton, Ohio. With Daniel’s death in 1868, I am wondering if
Julia Ann Brubaker Elkin wrote this statement upon payment of the
$700.00. There is no signature following
the statement, but Julia is the only one of the children mentioned in the lease
as to having any claim to the estate…
Newspaper obituary read:
David Todd Brubaker, one of Lawrence County’s best-known and
highest esteemed residents, died Sunday night at 12:30 o’clock rather

for one year, but his condition was not considered alarming. Mr.
Brubaker was born June 1842 on the farm where he died. He was a son of David D. and Margaret

Notes for HARRY HENRY BIMPSON:
Newspaper obit reads
Mr. Harry Bimpson of Kenova, a son of one of the pioneer residents of Sheridan in her palmy days, died Sunday at his home. Mr. Bimpson was a splendid man and will be greatly missed by his community. He was stricken with paralysis Sunday, death following the same day. He was buried at Woodland Wednesday, and many of his friends came down to pay their last respects to their friend. Mr. Bimpson was a brother of Mrs. Bess McCoy of this city and a cousin of W. H. Nigh. both of whom attended the funeral. Mr. Bimpson and Edward Gould of Chicago were their best friends in their youth, a friendship which nothing could mar. He leaves a devoted wife and three children, Lillian, Roxy, and Stanley. the latter only recently returned from the front in France. Our sympathy is extended to the bereaved family.
I came across an article in the 1882 Hardesty Atlas on a Joseph
Bimpson and Sarah N. Campbell. They had
a son Henry H. Bimpson born Nov 5, 1865 (I don’t know if these are his parents or
not), But the time frame is about right for Vesta’s husband.
He was employed by the North and Western Railroad.

Lawrence Co., Ohio; d. February 06, 1938, Lexington, Ky; m. BERTHA LEE WHALEY;

Notes for HENRY NELSON BRUBAKER:
Have a small article in the Ironton paper which says, Mr. Nelson
Brubaker, of Springdale, Ky, is at home for a two-week visit with his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Todd Brubaker.
Dennis Brubaker (my father) remembers they visited Nelson when
they went out to Kentucky, where they also visited his son Paul. Mrs. Ennis Austin confirmed on a phone
conversation that Nelson did go to Maysville, Kentucky, with his brother Kyle
I don’t know if this is our Henry or a different one as of yet?…

“Message reply to a query on Rootsweb Message Board”
1. There was a Brubaker
that lived near my family in Carlton, WA, in the ’30s and 40’s when my dad was
a kid. My dad said he was single and always lived alone.
2. I’m sure this is the
same guy my dad knew as a kid. I remember my dad saying he liked a little wine
now and then and that he had a big telescope that my dad and his brother would
take out on the porch when they were kids and watch mule deer herds on the
other side of the valley during the fall hunting season. My Dad’s father knew
him very well. Do you know what he did for a living? The house he lived in was
torn down about 20 years ago, and we still hunt in the same area where he
lived. My Dad always talks about him
when we drive by the place where he lives. My Dad did say they always called
him Bill.
—————-e-mail from March 25, 2002
From Ed McConnell
The road to Bill’s old place is about 1/2 way between Carlton and
Twisp is on the highway and is near a big concrete water weir. On the face of the
weir is my name faded out slightly. Bill
and my grandfather were good friends and built the road together. Take the
dirt road near that up the hill to the two gates, stop your car at the
gates, and walk through the gate that is on the right. Just beyond that gate, about 75 yards, look to
your left, and you will see where someone has put up a couple of
buildings. The house Bill had sat at
that location looking across the valley.
It was a small wood frame house with a porch on it and was standing
until about 20 years ago when a forest fire went through the area. I’m not sure if the Forest Service burned the
house down or if the Forest Fire burned it down. WATCH For RATTLESNAKES. You can walk right over a snake in that
country and not know it. They don’t always
rattle.

After a few more contacts with Ed McConnell, he gave me a Stanley
and Arthur Darwood of Twisp Washington to contact (509-997-5173). Stanley and Arthur would go out to visit when
their father would go to see Bill.
Arthur told me that Bill was about 5 foot 11 inches and weight
about 180 pounds if his memory serves him correctly. Bill was a Dry Land Farmer (no
irrigation). He raised Oats, Rye and
Wheat. He had a few horses and cattle, and he would sell the cream to make ends meet. His house was small. It was a two-story house,
Pantry, Living area, and Kitchen downstairs and a bedroom upstairs. He had an old milk house and a cellar out
back where he would keep his potatoes. He
really enjoyed sitting on the front porch in his homemade chair, just watching
the hills and the sunsets. All that he
had around his land were timbers and hills.
There were a lot of rattlesnakes in his area, so when the kids would
come, he watched to see that they could get in and out with no problem. He is remembered as being a good man, a gentleman,
always willing to help his neighbors, who helped him in return.

Notes for DAVID CURTIS BRUBAKER:
David and Myrtle spent a large share of their life moving across
the county side. If you notice their children’s birthplaces, they moved to Iowa,
Virginia, Ohio, and finally back to Iowa, where they finally settled for good.
David and Myrtle met while both were attending College in West
Virginia or Virginia. David studies to
be a teacher. However, we are unsure as
to what happened to his ambitions. David
worked as a plumber in North English and later moved to a farm 5 miles north of
North English. David lost the farm after
a series of flood-stricken years and moved to Grinnell, still working as a
plumber. Recollection is it was for
Ritter Hardware and later for Grinnell College.
David was diagnosed with Cancer and was hospitalized in Iowa
City.
Notes for MYRTLE EDITH PETTIBONE:
Edith, as most refer to her, her father committed suicide when she was
young, and her mother died during childbirth.
Her Aunt & Uncle, Frank & Elly Warner, took her in and raised
her. Although she felt that she had to
work harder than her cousins who were all boys, they did send her to college
in West Virginia or Virginia, and this
is where she met David Curtis Brubaker.
Frank & Elly Warner lived on a farm east of North English and kept in
close contact with Edith and her family.
SPECIAL MEMORIES OF PAM BRUBAKER MCGERR: I remember going to my great grandma’s home all
of the time when I was really young. She
was always wearing her apron and seemed to know I was coming because she always
had freshly baked cookies waiting for me.
Her white/gray hair was all wrapped up in a small bun on the top of her
head. I remember climbing up on her lap
at a table in the center of the kitchen to eat my cookies……….. I don’t remember ever seeing David Curtis
there, but I remember feeling at ease there.
There was a small timber that ran along the gravel road by the house. We used to go mushroom hunting there.
