Arvel Brown, son of Willis and Nancy Ellis Brown, had a hardware store in New Ross at one time.
Back to schools, some of which I had written about earlier. It was in 1900 that high school was added to New Ross, and at first, only 2 years of high school were given, but in 1902/3, a three-year-course was begun, and my mother, Dora E. Linn Randel, Maude Tipton Feather, and Treacy Routh Meade, graduated in 1906 from this three-year-non-commissioned school. The first graduates of the two-year course were Bessie Golliday Adkins, Stella Bowcrs, Burton Dorsey Bratton and Carl Smith. There were no graduates from 1906 to 1911, although
Professor Cecil Kibbey taught high school 1907-1908. In 1901 2-3, Claud Brown was superintendent; 1904, Henry H. Harrel 1905/6 Joseph L. Davis, my mother's favorito, teacher; 1911/12/13/14/15 Mary E. Walkup, Supt. ; Ernest O. Kirtpat- rick, superintendent a few years; then Henry Lane, Mr. Bramb litt, Gale Grimes, Vernon Purdue, Mr. Dimmit, Mr. Thomp son, and Ron Howard, present principal. In first two years the had both superintendent and principal. In 1911, J. W. War was principal, then Helen Banks, Nora Galbreath, and Bert Ashby were principals.
One of the New Ross graduates, Howard Williams, who grad ated in 1945, son of Earl M. and Nellie Hadley Williams, wa a star basketball player. He graduated from Purdue University Lafayette, Indiana, and was an outstanding basketball player i college too. He was later a member of the Peoria Caterpillar AAU Quintet, Illinois, who went to the Olympics at Finland 1952 for the United States. Also in 1952 Howard received a "Oscar" as the nation's outstanding athlete. Six judges, includ ing sports writers, coaches, and Cascy Stengel (of New Yankee then) made the selection. Howard said the award to him wasn strictly an individual award, for without the team's cooperatio he would never have been able to make such high scores. (I February 1953, Quaker Oats in Chicago held a contest to writ 10 words about your favorite athlete and I sent in name of How. ard Williams and said "he is a paragon of versatility on the basketball rebounds, " for which I received a genuine leather football as a prize).
A "big day" was held in New Ross on September 17, 1949, of Harold Thompson's lot, east on State Strect. The day wa! called "Jimmy Creed Day" in honor of New Ross number one citizen (?) star pacer. The number one attraction wasn't both ered by the applauding admirers, but just munched all day of his rich feed! A band played "Back Home Again In Indiana" a "Jimmy " stepped from his truck, in which he'd been brought to the ball grounds from his owners' farm, Silas C. and Dell Byer Thompson, 1 1/2 miles cast of New Ross. Jimmy Creed wo $103, 169. 82 in five years. He won $25, 000 National Pacing Derby at Roosevelt Raceway, Westbury, Long Island, N. Y. He held track records all over the country and he won rich purse: at Saratoga, N. Y., Lexington, Ky .; Maywood Park, Chicago and California tracks. . He was to leave the next day after thi: "big day" for Northville Downs, Michigan, then on to Californ- ia for $450, 000 Golden West Pacing Derby. " (T'aken from an Indianapolis Star clipping September, 1849, by George Dyslin given me by Paul Eddingfield). Jimmy Crecd was retired from racing several years later, and was used only for breeding pur- poses, so he may have offspring that will equal or better his racing records.
In November 1965, Custom Farm Services, a division of Tenn. Corp., a subsidiary of Cities Service Oil Co., opened a fertilizer plant 1/4 mile west of New Ross, along Big Four Rail- road, and north of Highway 136, on what was formerly the Basil Booher land. with Charles Pirtle as manager. In the latter part of 1966 or early 1967, they began a complete farm service center, a million dollar project. The air-conditioned "Farmor" farm store will carry a $19, 000 inventory of items for farm and homc. Tlie 70 to 80-tons-per-day feed mill will have a storage capacity for 12, 000 bushels, and will provide custom grinding and mixing, with farm delivery. The 40'x50' air conditioned community center building will have a seating capacity of 100 persons, a kitchen and a projection room. It will be available for the use of all local organization services in the counties of Montgomery, Boonc, Hendricks and Putnam. The Custom Farm Service Center Complex will be managed by Max Swaim, a qualified, well trained, 1956 Purdue Grad, in animal drug and feed sales, industrial engineering and in merchandising.
From Crawfordsville Journal, 1960 s: "The powerhouse for Terre Haute, Indianapolis, and eastern traction line, the inter-
- Page 40 -
ban, was on an acre of land, east of New Ross 1/4 mile, on rth side of railroad. At one time, it was a show place, as e attendants in charge kept a nice lawn and flower garden." le last attendant was Frank McMullen. After interurban ceased operate, Jesse Walters, son of Alva and Nettie Baker Walters, ught the building and his stepson, Jesse Baker had an auto re- ir shop in the building. In 1953 Jesse Walters' granddaughter, sse Lou Walters Stewart, daughter of Lawrence and Louise ddack Walters, and her husband, Allen Stewart bought land d the building. They tore down the power house, but used the ment floors for a three-car garage, and have built a new odern home on the land.
Franklin A. Walters had an ice-house in alley between South ain and South Green Street, back of his house on South Main. New Ross has the fire department stationed in old interurban tion, on West State Street. This is Walnut Township fire de- rtment. It is across the street from Methodist Church. Arthur heeler, town clerk, has his office in this building. Dorman arris is president of the town board. The telephone office is in rtheast part of New Ross; head operator lives there. Roy Day s a sawmill and manufacturing company 1/2 mile west of ew Ross, near the Custom Farm Service, and Hybrid Hog Farm ace, (on former Lane homestead).
The Christian Church parsonage on North Main street was to the church by the Ernest Linn family.
The people of a community are an integral partof any place, d through county histories, obituaries, articles in newspapers, d oral information the following people are some of the in- bitants and their families who were and are in this locality id had a hand in making this area grow. Many people living re today are descendants of some of these early settlers as Ar- old, Baber, Baker, Bamish, Booher, Bratton, Bronaugh, Brown, ırk, Canada, Chambers, Clark, Denoon, Ebaugh, Emmert, vans, Feather, Feltner, Fisher, Frazier, Golliday, Graves, cay, Hafris, Huffman, Jarvis, Linn, Miller, Moore, Morrison, yers, Needham, Proffitt, Rhoades, Rogers, Routh, Shewey, ewart, Stipe, Turner, Walters, Stanley, Wright, Beck, Brad- y, Elliot, Thompson, Williams, and others.

Theodore Hankins born March 8, 1858 Hamilton Co., Ohio, bon of John and Orpha Hancock Hankins, worked as a barber for 5 years, and 12 years of that time he worked as an embalmer. id also farmed 7 years of that time. He came to New Ross 388, barbered till 1890, then he started in undertaking busi- ess, which he continued until his death. He was better known 3 Dora Hankins. He was a very good undertaker, (or funeral irector as they are called today). How well I remember his orse-drawn hearse at the funeral of my great, great uncle, lilliam John, June 1916 . . When my grandfather, James W. inn died in 1922, he had a motor hearse then. He and his first ife Rose Morrison Hankins had three children, Harold, Hazel, nd Everett . . Both Harold and Everett have passed away, but azel lives in Crawfordsville, Indiana. After the death of his
first wife, Mr. Hankins married Ida Dorsey, daughter of George II and wife Docia Jessee Dorsey. (George Dorsey had also been an undertaker). When Mr. Hankins was undertaker, he would come to the house when there was a death, embalm the body, then he would bring the casket, or coffin as it was called then, place the body in it and the person was ready for viewing. No set time, and the family could be with their dear ones until the funeral. At night there was a group of friends who would bring in food, and sit up all night, watching that nothing hap- pened to the corpse, and giving moral and sympathetic support to the grieving family. Funerals were often held in the home, but sometimes in the church. Nowadays the bodies are whisked away to funeral directors establishment, and it takes him about 24 hours to get the body ready for viewing, and the family has to pay for all viewing times. Perhaps it's called progress, but it is a cold, modern method, all of which I don't approve.
Ulysses Harris and his sons, Don, Earl (Dode), and Bill were carpenters, and there are many houses and barns in the area that are their handiwork. Bill Harris later worked 26 years in the New Ross Lumber Company.
New Ross area residents were represented in Civil War, Span- ish American War, WW I, WW II, Korean War and now the Vietnam war. The American Legion has the Robert Turner Post in New Ross. Also there's a Conservation Club about 2 miles southwest of New Ross on Baker land. A Community Club was formed a few years ago, and every year they have a fish fry, as does the American Legion. Entertainment, games, good food, bring people from miles away, and big crowds are always in at- tendance. Men and women both work very hard to make these suppers a success.

The Thomas E. Harris home, north of New Ross was 16 'x18'x7' and the Justice of Peace held court in this house. In 1836, Ben- jamin F. Ristine from Crawfordsville, made one of his first speeches, (if not his first) in defense of a Mr. Kellison, who had assaulted George Tipton with a knife. Mr. Harris was on Plain- tiff's side. Both men had made very emphatic and argumenta - tive oratorical efforts in behalf of their clients, then it was learned the assault happened in Boone County, so prisoner was released and trial adjourned. In 1842, Mr. Harris built a larger house, and in 1858, erected a still larger house. The February 18, 1881 issue of Crawfordsville paper contained these excerpts about Thomas E. Harris. "He was born in Buckingham Co. Va. , 1808 to James and Ellen Staples Harris, a planter and slave holder. (Thomas E. died 1885). He married 1. Rebecca Powers' 1825/6 Va., He taught school in Virginia, but as he didn't own anything, he couldn't vote, so in 1832 he bought a home, and was able to vote for Andrew Jackson. With two small ponies, a wagon, and $57 they started west. They stopped in Ohio for two years, and he taught school there 15 months. They came to Indiana, 1/2 miles north of New Ross in 1836. He had a weakly wife and 6 small children. He taught school for three months for $50. In 1881 he owned 381 acres land, gave two sons a farm each, and was worth quite a bit of money. He was in State Legislature, and was County Commissioner, with Sain- uel Gilliland when Yountsville Bridge was built!" (He was bur- ied in Pisgah Cemetery. Thomas and Rebecca had nine child- ren, but only 4 were living in 1881). "Rebecca died 1853; he married 2. Sallie Winter Manker 1856; married three, Mrs. Rhoda George, she died 1862; married 4. Nancy (Polly) Johnson, daughter of Clement and Nancy J. Johnson. " His four surviving children from first marriage were John F., James S., Mary S. and Martha E. Harris. The five children who died before 1881 were Nancy B., who was born in Virginia, as were the four sur- viving), Rebecca, born Ohio, Emeline born Ohio, and Susan and Lucinda both born in Indiana. Children of his fourth mar- riage were Virginia and Robert E. Harris.
In 1878, Elizabeth Jane Miller was born in New Ross to Tim- othy and Samantha Fillmore Killion Miller, who had come to the New Ross area around 1873. Timothy was son of Henry and Ann Delilah Winter Miller. Ann Delilah was a sister of the Mary Winter, who had first land entry here in 1822. Elizabeth 's parents were teachers, and her father was also a brick manu- facturer. Timothy's other children, all born in New Ross, were Otto, Ralph, Hugh, besides Elizabeth. Elizabeth Jane married Oren S. Haek. Elizabeth and her parents left New Ross 1883. Elizabeth was a novelist. She died in Indianapolis August 18, 1961. Mr. and Mrs. Hack had 5 children, John Oren, Eleanor Miller Hack, Director of Admissions at Indiana University Medical Center, Indianapolis, Stephen Elliot, Elizabeth Vir- ginia, and Joseph Tinsley Hack. Elizabeth Jane Miller Hack wrote "The Yoke;" "A Romanee of the Days When the Lord Re- deemed the Children from the Bondage of Egypt;" "Saul of Tar- sus;" "The City of Delight",' "Daybreak;" "A Story of Age of Discovery;" and "A Love Drama of the Siege and Fall of Jerusa- lem .. " She was listed in Who's Who in America several years. Mrs. Hack had many Miller and Winter relatives in the New Ross area. One of these is Mrs. Joed Linn, formerly Nancy Gray, through her grandmother Mattie Bright Gray Davis. Timothy Miller, Elizabethi's father, was born March 19, 1849. He lived
and taught school in Corydon, Indiana before he came to New Ross, as did his wife Samantha Fillmore Killion Miller. She was reared by her grandparents, Alexander and Elsie Tranum West, so Samantha dropped the Fillmore from her name and used Wcs1 instead. For years she was a capital correspondent for a num- ber of Indiana county seat newspapers, aud she was the editor of a trade journal for furniture, signing her name as S. West Miller, and few knew that she was a woman. Timothy's grand- father, John Winter, owned much land in this vicinity, and when he died, Timothy hcired his mother's share, and Timo- thy administrator of his father, Henry Miller's estate, turned this all over to his brothers and sisters, and kept the Winter La La share near New Ross for his own. Hc built a little white house, with pink trimmings, on this land, and it was here that all five children were born. So Now Ross is not' without its famous peo- ple! Timothy's father, Henry Miller Jr. , son of Henry I and Catherine Agnes Miller, married Ann Delilah Winter, daugh- ter of John and Elizabeth Pfrimmer Winter, and they had 10 children: Fabius, 1847-1865, Civil War; Timothy 1848-1913; Isabelle Agnes, b. 11-7-1849 m.

Miller, born 4-12-1863 died 2-23-1947, married David Reed; Elizabeth Jane Miller, who never married, lived with her brother, Peter Fillmore Mil- ler, and she taught school here many years. Their sister Emma also lived with them. Elizabeth died age 78, buried in New Ross cemetery. John Winter, who had so much land for his children Mas was born 1779-died 8-19-1870, (son of Christopher Winter and wifc Elizabeth Pfrimmer, born 6-3-1789 - died 1-17-1865 (daughter of John G. George and Elizabeth Senn Pfrimmer, came to Montgomery County from Corydon, Indiana. John and Elizabeth had 17 children, most of whom lived around New Ross. John and Elizabeth Winter were buried in Ladoga Ccme- tery. Their children were Christian, 1807-1810; Jesse, 1809- 1878; Benjamin, born 1824, married Magdaline Stoner (she died 1900, age 80, and in 1850 census for Walnut township, thcir children were David, Lydia and Rebecca, and they lived near Th New Ross, and his mother and father, John and Elizabeth Winter lived with them, also a sister, Elizabeth, who married a Samuel Redenbaugh later and went to Kansas); Jonas, born 1811; John Winter Jr., 1817 m.

(Taken from Eliza- beth Jane Miller Hack's "The Jacob Miller Family" and from Vcra Stoncr's "The Stoner Family").
In early 1922, an 80-year-old lady, Mrs. Sarah Ann Morris Skaggs (daughter of John Morris, born Hamilton Co. Ohio 1822, and wife Ann Holly Morris, born Bourbon Co., Ky., who came to 2 miles north of New Ross in an early day) told of the early days in the New Ross area, and her life would be similar to others in the area . . Mrs. Skaggs said she walked three miles to school. She was born April 4, 1842, near New Ross. She and her brother, William Harvey Morris, helped clear land, and sh spun yarn to supply their needs. . Her parents had a cane mill. They had apple butter boilings which furnished a lot of fun. Pulling flax was another pasttime. They raked wheat after the cradle. They took grain to Lafayette, the trip taking 3 days. They would go as far as Wea, (I presume this was south of Rom- ney, Indiana, as Wea ereek runs south of there) make camp there, next day go on to Lafayette, sell grain, buy salt, shoe
- Page 42 -
the
leather, and Orleans sugar, then return to Wea, camp again overnight, and home the next day. She and her father worked at cane mill from morning till 9:00 P. M. , then slept till 3 A. M. get up, take wheat to Thorntown, northeast of New Ross, in Boone County, about 15 miles, did trading, and returned home by noon, and her mother and brother would be working in the cane mill. She said they would do wood chopping and wool picking; would work hard all day, then dance all night! (I don't believe this was an every day occurrence. ) They lived neigh- bors to Joseph Spohr, and Thomas Evans Families. In 1864, while milking cows, Mrs. Skaggs froze her hands. In 1865 she taught school at the Watkins school. Had 40 pupils. She joined Providence Church September 5, 1878, northeast of New Ross, east of Beckville. From 1902 until 1922 when she wrote the article for the paper, she was telephone operator at Mace, In- diana. In 1922 she said the only ones living who had been born and spent their lives in New Ross were Allen Stewart and Rhoda Phelps, of her generation. (If more people had written articles about their families, and the events and happenings of the day, what a wonderful history we could have. ) Sarah Ann Morris married William L. Skaggs October 1876, no children; her brother married Mary Jeanette Martin, had 12 children, but they all lived nearer to Mace, Indiana.

Inlow on October 16, 1866, and came to New Ross. Their child- ren were Oscar E., William J. , Mollie S., Addie M., and Su- san Kelly. Susan Inlow Kelly died February 25, 1869. (These dates could not be right unless the children were twins!) James H. Kelly married 2. on August 10, 1879, Mary J. Morris Bruce, daughter of Peter and Esther Morris. (In another item of data I have, it says that Nancy Brown Kelly married 2. James Evans. The Susan Inlow, above and her brother William J. Inlow, mentioned earlier, were children of Abraham and Susan Sparks Inlow. Other children of Abraham Inlow were John Inlow, wife Rebecca, who were parents of Susie Inlow who married Wilse Jessee; a sister Louise Alice Inlow married James Routh, born 7-22-1854 -- 6-23-1939, son of Jesse H. and Elizabeth Rande1 Routh. James and Louise had Horace and Treacy Routh (Meade); another brother was Isaac Inlow; Elliot Inlow, another son mar- ried 1. Elizabeth Copner, married 2. Hattie Fishback, and he and Hattie were the parents of Iva Inlow, who is at the Ben Hur Nursing Home in Crawfordsville, Indiana, quite elderly; and a sister Mary married William McVey .. (From Treacy Routh Meade).
Abraham Inlow married Catherine Routh, (I presume he's a son of Abraham above too, but Treacy Meade didn't give me his name). They had two children, Ida Inlow, born 8-3-1862, married Thomas Evans in 1881, and their children were Harry (Pete); Charles; and Elizabeth Evans Hymer; and James I.

Other children of Andrew and Sarah Routh were Martha J; Asenath, both died; James S., killed in Civil war; and Jesse H. Routh II who married Joan Randel. Carrie Riffle was daughter of William and Alice Riffle. (From Jesse C. Inlow). Abraham Inlow died
October 1873.
William J. and Emmarine Sparks Inlow had one son, Eddie, born 1866, New Ross, who married Hattie Adkins, and they had two children.
