"JACOB HUBLER AND SON" Mr. Jacob Hubler, of Grahampton, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, was another of the victims sacrificed to the bloody Moloch of Abolitionism. He was sixty-five years of age, and suffering from the infirmities incidental to that period of life, at the time of his arrest. About 10 o'clock p.m., in the latter part of December, 1864, he was arrested, and brutally treated by his captors. The arrest was made by a squad of soldiers headed by one Joseph Miller, a citizen, wearing an United States uniform. On entering the house of Mr. Hubler, they presented their revolvers and covered his person with them, demanding to know, at the same time, if there were any men in the house. He replied in the negative. He was then told to pack up his clothing, as he was a prisoner, and must accompany them. He asked Miller what crime he had committed against either the civil or military authority of the United States, that he was thus to be dragged from his fireside, avowing himself to be a law-abiding citizen. The officer ordered him to stop his prattle and get ready to leave. In a few minutes after, he, together with several others who had been kidnapped, was started for Philipsburg, the regimental headquarters, where he arrived after suffering much from the inclemency of the weather. The next day he was examined by the marshal, who could find nothing against him to warrant his arrest or detention, but who nevertheless confined him for several days in an old barrack, where he was fed on hardtack and coffee. After four days of imprisonment he was transferred, under guard, to Harrisburg and .......... in the "Exchange," where he anxiously awaited his promised trial. Before leaving Philipsburg, he was told by the commanding officer that he would be held responsible for his son, who had been drafted and had not reported. He protested against the injustice of such action, averring that his son was of age, and out of his parental jurisdiction. But this did not palliate his case. A pretext for his arrest was needed, and that furnished it. After an incarceration of a week in the "Exchange," he and forty-two others were placed on the train for Philadelphia, where they arrived benumbed with cold. They were then marched to the barrack, at Fifth and Buttonwood Streets, placed in the upper portion of the building, in a room from the window of which nearly all the glass had been broken. Here, fatigued and hungry, with nothing to eat, they were left for the night. Mr. Hubler's boots were frozen on his feet, and he nearly perished with the cold, which was so intense, that the younger men were compelled to walk the room to keep up the circulation of the blood. The following morning, he, with the others, was furnished with a ration of bread and meat, marched to the depot at Broad and Prime Streets, and kept standing for more than half a day. After four o'clock p.m., they were placed on the cars for Fort Mifflin, where they arrived about dusk, and were taken to Colonel Eastman's office, and after standing for an hour, were placed in a bombproof with more than forty others. His treatment, here, was the same as that of the other prisoners, which is described in the narrative of Mr. Walters, who was from that time forth his fellow-prisoner. While a prisoner in the Fort, his son, Levi Hubler, who had been drafted, as he was informed, but had never been legally notified of it, after keeping out of the way for fear of arrest by the troops who were scouring the country, reported in the latter part of December, thinking that he would be treated as a drafted man, as other non-reporting men had been. Immediately on presenting himself at the regimental headquarters, he was arrested, and after a few days confinement, sent to Harrisburg, and thence to Fort Mifflin, undergoing the same treatment that his father was there receiving. February 17th, 1865, father and son, together with a number of others, were marched to Philadelphia, taken to General Cadwalader's headquarters, and after standing an hour or more, were taken to the depot, where they were placed in the cars for Harrisburg. On the march from the Fort to Philadelphia, Mr. Hubler, Sen., suffered much from fatigue and weakness. The road was full of slush and snow, and the prisoners were constantly slipping, which made the march more tedious and tiresome. Mr. Hubler nearly gave out from exhaustion, and was supported and assisted in turn by the stronger and more robust of the party. Arriving at Harrisburg, they were again placed in the "Exchange," which becoming so filthy as to disgust even the officials, they were removed to the "Cotton Factory," which was somewhat cleaner, if not more commodious. Their trail, which had been promised them, was delayed from day to day. They were marched from the prison to the commission in the morning, full of the expectation of having a trial and hearing their fate, and after waiting all day in torturing anxiety, were marched back again, without a word of explanation. Mr. Hubler, Jr., was paroled on the 22d of February, 1865, and has never since been called upon to report. Mr. Hubler, Sen., failed so rapidly in health, that he was granted a parole on the 15th of March, 1865, and returned to his home, where he was confined to his bed, in which he lingered until the 4th of July and died on the anniversary day on which, eighty-nine years before, had been declared the birth of a nation of freeman. We conclude these narratives with a list of those who were arrested and confined from Clearfield County, Pennsylvania. The list is not complete, but is as full as the author could make it.

Blake - 25 - Clearfield, PA Yoas, Henry - 44 - Luthersburg, Clearfield Co, PA Three of these cases are extremely painful -- those of Jacob Hubler, George Rucher, and Jacob Willhelm. The first of these, the senior of the party, suffered intensely from his confinement, and died shortly after his return home. The second, George Rucher, is heart-rending, calling to mind some of the scenes of the French Revolution, and particularly the parting scenes of the Conciergerie. At the time of his arrest, his wife (an old woman) was told by her neighbors that her husband would be hung. This frightened her so that she died in a few hours afterward. When this sorrowful news reached her aged consort in the Guard-house at Harrisburg, he was so overcome with emotion that he died almost as suddenly. The other, Jacob Willhelm, whose case is given in this work, was reduced to the verge of the grave: ........."and now Despoiled, he lives like wind-swept, leafless boughs, A noble phantom ---- shade of what had been." ________________________________________ More About Jacob Hubler: Date born 2: 19 Oct 1800, Northumberland, PA Burial: Jul 1867, Bigler Cem, Bigler, Clearfield Co, PA Census: 1850, Bradford Twp, Clearfield Co, PA, age 49, farmer, property value $3,000 More About Jacob Hubler and Susannah Schmehl: Marriage: Abt. 1821 Children of Susannah Schmehl and Jacob Hubler are: + 56 i.

Notes for Ellis W Evans: CLEARFIELD PROGRESS, Clearfield, PA, July 30, 1926 EVANS FAMILY REUNION The Evans Family Reunion was very properly observed Thursday, July 29, 1926, at the old family homestead in Graham Township. There was estimated a total of 175 persons present, the members of the Clan beginning to arrive about 10 o'clock in the morning, and up until the time set for the banquet, 1 o'clock. When all the guests had arrived and everything was in readiness, the President called all those present to the banquet table, which was loaded down with all the good things that anyone would want to eat. After the guests had been seated, grace was asked by Rev. Britton, pastor of the Church of Christ of Clearfield. Then everyone fell to with a will and ate till they could hold no more. When dinner was over and the table Cleared, a short session of speech-making was indulged in, several appropriate themes being touched upon. Rev. Somers of the Woodland M. E. Church gave a short but interesting talk on the meaning of Family Reunions. He said that families are very much like a tree in their growth, all the branches being originally derived from the main part of the tree, the trunk. Nearly all of the pioneers of the Evans family have passed on. Those who cleared the fields and tilled the soil among the early settlers have nearly all gone to their heavenly reward. Only one of the old original members of this great family is left and he was the guest of honor at the festivities. This was Ellis Evans, now past eighty-four, who, with his wife, took part in the affairs of the day. The speech-making over with, the more energetic ones got together and chose sides for a game of baseball. And what a ball game that was! Those who were permitted to witness this spectacle saw something seldom seen in the big leagues. President Harry Evans stole two bases at once! He didn't bother about second base, cut cut across the field from first to third. The writer doesn't know what the final score was, as he didn't have an adding machine along. But that's a small matter - it was a great game, anyway. When evening arrived, and all the events of the day had been completed successfully, the members began to depart for their homes, feeling that they all had greatly enjoyed the day. At a short business meeting, the present Reunion Officers were reelected for next year, with Harry Evans as President and Paul Flaharty as Secretary. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLEARFIELD PROGRESS, Clearfield, PA, February 28, 1928 ELLIS W EVANS Ellis W.

Newton Alexander Graham, born 20 May 1860 in PA; died 02 Dec 1890. Notes for Newton Alexander Graham: CLEARFIELD PROGRESS, Clearfield, PA, December 8, 1927 The following, taken from the Public Spirit back in 1890, referring to a fatality in the Clearfield county deer woods, was sent us for publication by B. I. Young, of Mineral Springs: Newton Graham Mr. Graham was last seen alive on December 2, 1890 on Leonard's ridge between Crooked run and Trout run, in Goshen township, whither he and several others had gone to hunt deer. As soon as it was known that he was missing diligent but fruitless search was made for him. rewards were offered for his recovery and a continuous effort made by his brother Alfred to find him, if living, and to recover his body if dead. On Tuesday last Alfred Graham accompanied by about thirty of his friends and neighbors met at Mapes' mill, on Trout run, for the purpose of making another search after the body of the missing man - it being conceded by all that he must be dead, his known knowledge of the country which he was in dispelling all ideas of his being lost. Aaron Shirey, Daniel Leipoldt and Frand Bradley went up Trout run in advance of the main party, and shortly after ten o'clock found the body of man upon inspection was identified as all that was mortal of Newton Graham. The place where he was found is about one-fourth of a mile up Trout run from where Crooked run enters that stream, and but a short distance from the run up the Leonard Ridge and about two and one-half miles down the creek from where he was last seen. The finding of his hat a little farther up the hill, one of his mittens, about thirty-five feet further up his gun, then about forty-four feet beyond his body and near it his other mitten and watch chain indicate that he was struggling to get to the hunting shanty which was just over the ridge and but three-fourths of a mile distant. In his pocket and undisturbed were his keys, knife, pocketbook with its contents, and watch. The magazine of his gun was empty, the shell of a fired cartridge was still in the barrel. The carcass of a deer was found some distance down the run on a drift pile and from this and other circumstances some express the theory that he was following this deer and in his efforts to capture it became exhausted. Various other theories are expressed as to the manner of his death but all agree in the opinion that he died from natural causes. Newton Graham was about 29 years and 5 months old. His father, James C. Graham, was killed in the battle of Winchester. Two brothers, Alfred, of Lawrence township, and Harry of Bradford, and a married sister of St. Paul, Minnesota, survive him.

For several years Mrs. McClellan had been in failing health, but prior to December was able to enjoy to some extent the useful and well ordered life that was always hers.

After impressive funeral rites, conducted on Sunday afternoon, January 27, by Rev. E. C. Reeve, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, of which Mrs. McClellan had been a loyal and faithful member since early girlhood, she was laid to rest in Hillcrest Cemetery beside the grave of her grandson, Frederick Hallock, who died six years ago.

CLEARFIELD REPUBLICAN - December 6, 1901 - Miscellaneous News Nine Venerable Citizens Hezekiah LANSBERRY, the efficient Assessor of Graham township filed his returns with the County Commissioners yesterday. In making up his registry Mr. LANSBERRY found nine citizens in his district whose ages average 80 years. They are Abram HUMMEL, 83; Michael FINK, 84; W.B. RECORDS, 84; George NEARHOOD, 79; Amos HUBLER, 79; Andrew SMEAL, 79; Levi HUBLER, 78; William ENGLISH, 77 and Samuel SMEAL, 76. The last named gentleman is added to the list because of the fact that he is the tax collector of the township, in which position he has served continuously for 16 years and is regarded as one of the best collectors in the county. Although about four score years of age he does all his work without the aid of glasses. Considering the population of Graham township, it is doubtful if there is another district in the county that can equal it in producing pioneer citizens.

C. April 14, 1926 Word was received Tuesday evening by Mrs. George M. Stewart of South Fairview street that her mother, Mrs. A. C. Lansberry of Bigler, Clearfield county, had died that morning after a brief illness with influenza from which it was thought she had recovered. The telegram conveying the news of her death carried an incorrect word and the Stewart family was under the impression for several hours, that Mrs. Stewart’s brother and not her mother had died. Mrs. Lansberry had visited here yearly. She was 78 years old and had been a resident of Clearfield county all her life. She is survived by her daughter, Mrs. Stewart, and one son, Reed Barger, of Woodland, Pa. Mr. Stewart went to Bigler Tuesday evening and Mrs. Stewart and other members of the family expect to leave tomorrow morning to attend the funeral. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CLEARFIELD PROGRESS, Clearfield, PA, April 14, 1926 Funeral of Mrs. A. C. Lansberry Tomorrow The funeral of Mrs. A. C. Lansberry of Bigler will be held tomorrow afternoon from the home of her son, Reed Barger, of Woodland, at two o'clock. Mrs. Lansberry, before her marriage to Mr. Lansberry, now deceased, was the wife of the late Isaiah Barger of Bradford township. A ??? Christian woman of the finest kind. Mrs. Lansberry had a host of friends in the community. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CLEARFIELD PROGRESS, Clearfield, PA, April 27, 1926 Mrs. Louisa Barger Lansberry The Bradford Township community was saddened recently by the sudden demise of one of its oldest and most respected women in the person of Louisa, widow of the late A. C. Lansberry of Bigler. Probably better known as Mrs. Isaac Barger, whose wife she was prior to his death many years ago. The subject of this sketch died early on the morning of April 15th [this date appears to be an error in the paper], passing peacefully and restfully away as she slept, the only semblance of illness being a slight indisposition for two days prior to her death. Early in life Mrs. Lansberry affiliated with the United Brethren church and maintained her church relationship and duties through the more than eighty years of her life. To her first husband, Isaac Barger of Bradford Township, she bore five children, losing two of these and her husband in the typhoid fever epidemic nearly thirty years ago. Despite this great shock her faith in the Wisdom of the Great Creator remained unshaken and the great love that had ministered as a mother was turned into humanitarian and sacrificial channels. Her marriage to A. C. Lansberry of Bigler was an event of nearly twenty one years ago. His passing and the loss of her beloved son, Harvey, were additional shocks to this lady. However, an All Wise Providence had provided her with the Christian fortitude that never knew defeat and a kind and loving helpmate had provided the center of old age so that she survived the most of her kin. Mrs. Lansberry is survived by two children, Reed Barger of Woodland and Mrs. Flora Stewart of Lock Haven. Funeral services were held at the home of her son, Reed, in Woodland, where friends gathered in great numbers to pay her homage and flowers in profusion attested the great love her neighbors had for her. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLEARFIELD PROGRESS, Clearfield, PA, April 28, 1926 CLEARFIELD PROGRESS, Clearfield, PA, April 30, 1926 PUBLIC SALE We will sell at public auction at Bigler, Pa., Saturday, May 1, 1926, afternoon only, beginning at 1:00 p.m., Household goods, including player piano, stoves, sewing machine, rugs, beds, chairs and miscellaneous furniture.

Following funeral services at the home and in the Fairview Church, burial was made in the Fairview Cemetery beside the graves of his son, Beryl, and two daughters, Anabel and Iva, whom he loved so much when they were all at home together.

Notes for Larry Zeno Smeal: CLEARFIELD PROGRESS, Clearfield, PA, December 8, 1933 LARRY Z. SMEAL Larry Zeno Smeal, whose death occurred at his farm home in Pike Township, December 1, 1933, was the son of the late Samuel A. and Julia son of the late Samuel A. and Julia Smeal. He was born in Pike Township July 9th, 1881, and was aged 52 years, 4 months and 22 days. His boyhood was spent in Pike Township where he attended and passed the grade schools of that day, subsequently engaging in teaching school. After teaching some years he felt the need of higher education and became a student at the Lock Haven Normal School, graduating in the class of 1908. After graduation he became principal of DuBois schools where his work gave complete satisfaction, his personality winning for him many friends. After spending about 15 years in the teaching profession he claimed as his bride, Miss Blanche Verbeck of Frenchville and purchased a farm in Pike Township and entered upon the life of a farmer. Using the knowledge which he possessed, together with characteristics inherited from his forebears, he became both a successful farmer and staunch citizen of the township, holding important township offices and taking a keen interest in rural civic life. In his early manhood he united with the Centre Methodist Episcopal Church and after the organization of the Pleasant Grove Church transferred his membership to this congregation where he loyally supported the work. As an indication of his Christian generosity it is noted, that having no children of his own he took two orphan lads into his home and became a real father to them, and with the help of his good wife, brought them to young manhood well trained in Christian principles. Sons of which any father might well be proud. These two foster sons, Blair Way and Clair Shillip, together with his wife, survive to morn his passing. Also the following brothers and sisters: Thomas of Lawrence Township; Albert of Pike Township; Mrs. Alice Gruver of DuBois, and Miss Margaret who makes her home with her brother Albert. Funeral services were held at the late home on Monday, December 4, 1933, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, in charge of his pastor Rev. Garland C. Patterson, assisted by Rev. E. Roy Hauser, a close personal friend of the family.
