206	The ground was covered with frozen snow on this cold 24th of February, 1825 in Baden Baden Germany. It was on this day that Mathias Fisher was born. Baden Baden is a city located in the state of Baden-Wurttemberg in southwestern Germany. Nestled deep in the Black Forest, it is known for its hot mineral baths that have attracted tourists since the third century when the Romans visited this world famous spa. By the nineteenth century it was one of Europe`s most fashionable resorts. Mathias Fisher left Baden Baden and embarked for America when he was a young man. His exact age at the time of his journey is not known but he was probably in his teens. He apparently made the journey alone because our resources made no mention of his parents. After arriving in America, he settled in Newark, Ohio where he lived for the rest of his life. The United States in the early 1800s was different from the country we live in today. There were only 26 states when Mathias arrived from Germany and it was 35 years before the telephone was invented. Home electricity was unheard of and kerosene lamps provided light at night. Mathias was fifty seven years old when Thomas Edison first supplied electricity to a small neighborhood in New York City but he did not live long enough to enjoy its benefits. There were 18 presidents during his lifetime. John Quincy Adams, the sixth President of the United States was in office when he was born and Benjamin Harrison, America`s 23rd president was in the White House when he died. Mathias Fisher worked for the Baltimore and Ohio railroad when he and Catherine Bentz were married in Newark, Ohio. The year was probably 1859 or 1860. Catherine Bentz was born in Canal Winchester, Ohio and she was 15 years younger than Mathias. He and Catherine had four children, one of whom was your great great grandfather Joseph Edward Fisher. Mathias Fisher died tragically in 1892 when he was run over by a railroad locomotive. He died three months before his grandson, Joseph Mathias Fisher was born.	FISHER, Mathias (I41)

210	Vincent Andrews Story In the early 19th Century, a boy, Vincent Andrews was born in London, England. He grew to be a fine, stalwart young man. He decided to choose the Army for his life work. Because of his physical and mental qualifications he was chosen to become a member of her Majesty's Coldstream Guards. Her majesty at that time was Queen Victoria, Great Grandmother of the present King George of England. The Coldstream Guards were next to the oldest regiment in the English Army and one of the choicest regiments. Their duty was to attend the sovereign. Their mounted guard guarded the Royal Residences, public buildings and Institutions. It is recorded that these Coldstream Guards from the time of inception in 1660 have always performed excellently in every line of duty. After joining the Coldstream Guards, this young man, Vincent Andrews, met a girl from Dover, England by the name of Mary. They fell in love and were married. Their first child, a son, was born in London, May 14th, 1837. They named him John. In the year 1838 and 1839 a rebellion broke out in Canada. England sent leaders or pacifiers, to investigate possible grievances. Lord Dunham was assigned to Canada, with special assistants and special guards to quell the uprisings. Young Vincent was chosen to be one of the assistants. He and his young wife, Mary had to break their family ties in England, which had been their lifelong home and set sail to Canada, a strange land to them. On Sept. 24, 1839,while enroute from London to Canada on the steamship their second child was born a little girl which they called Sarah. Vincent and Mary arrived in Halifax, N.S. with their two children and for several years were happy in this new land. During that time another child was born. Edward was his name, but I regret that I have no record of his life history. In the summer of 1847, nine years later, a great tragedy came to this little family. Vincent and Mary became victims of a fever and both died just six weeks apart, on Grosse Ile, (Quarantine Station for the Irish Immigrants) about 30 miles below Quebec. Three children were left without parents and all their relatives who might have aided them were far away in England. John, the oldest child, was just past ten years of age at this time. While still a very young boy He, traveled south until he came to Rossville. He stopped there and eventually sent for his sister, Sarah. Brother John and sister Sarah felt a close tie of relationship because they were alone without any kith of kin in the U.S. When the Civil War broke out John enlisted and served through the war. My best information is that he lacked only two votes of becoming Captain of his regiment. On his return he married Loura Marie Earls. Their life together was rather short. His wife died in childbirth in 1876 leaving him with six children. He did his best to keep his family together but passed away about three years later with blood poisoning contracted while attending to his duties as Sextent of Springhill Cemetery. Four of those six children are still living today. Sarah met a widower, Alex Holden, with two small sons - a man of good standing in his community. She married him, became a second mother to his motherless boys and bore him eight children. Four of those eight are still living. Many hardships were experienced in both families but every child proved upright, trustworthy and a credit to their parents. Three of John's children, Anna, Harve, and Jennie and three of Sarah's children, Alex, Cora, and Mary are at our reunion today. I say in all sincerity we can be proud of the Holden-Andrews family. May god bless us all and guide us so that we may all continue to keep the standard high. Given at Holden-Andrews reunion by Mae Andrews Campbell Aug 24th,1941	ANDREWS, Vincent (I390)

217	When we lived in Danville, William Raymond Mauck (everyone called him Ray) worked in the office of the mine owned by my grandfather Joseph Mauck. Although I am not sure of this, I think he started out working in the mines as did most of Grandpa Joe`s children. When my Dad and Mother moved to Chicago with their five children, he had no job and no place to live. My mother wanted to move to Chicago because her brothers were there, and the plan was to have one of my uncles live with us and help with the expenses. It was not an easy time. My Dad did a lot of things during the depression. He worked for the New World Catholic (a newspaper), and sold insurance. He later went to work in the purchasing department of U.S. Steel at their Carnegie Works. My mother, Katherine Walsh Mauck was born in Chicago. She later lived with her uncle who was a chaplain in a Soldier`s Home in Danville. As remembered by Marjorie Mauck Kowal	MAUCK, William Raymond (I691)

219	William 'Bill' Chester Gunn Scottsdale, Ariz. and Pentwater: Newspaper Obituary and Death Notice Oceana's Herald-Journal (Hart, MI) - Thursday, June 12, 2014 Deceased Name: William 'Bill' Chester Gunn Scottsdale, Ariz. and Pentwater William "Bill" Chester Gunn, 84, died May 7, 2014, in Scottsdale, Ariz. A former creative director for a Chicago advertising agency and resident of Wheaton, Ill., he was a long-time summer resident of Pentwater. He and his first wife, Barbara "Barb" Weinard, and their five children, Jeffrey, Matthew, Susan, Sarah and Hayes began renting the "Tweedy" cottage in 1964, when Pentwater still had its own movie theater, commercial fishermen and fresh trout restaurants like the Driftwood Inn. After a decade of four-week stays, he and Barb built their own cottage in Garrison Park in 1974, on a bluff overlooking the great lake, where the family resided throughout the summers. Bill was born Sept. 16, 1929, and was raised in Oak Park, Ill. He attended IIT's Institute of Design, graduating in 1952. He studied design, photography and graphic art under Buckminster Fuller, Aaron Siskind and Emerson Woelffer. He began painting, and from 1950 to 1952 he exhibited his abstract expressionistic works frequently, including at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Los Angeles Art Institute in La Brea. In 1952, Bill was drafted into the army, where he served in the White House decoding encrypted messages. His first wife, also of Oak Park, Ill., worked in the Pentagon as a secretary. Having married a year earlier, it was during this time that they began their family. Following an honorable discharge from the army, Bill began work in the advertising field. He was hired as an art director by Leo Burnett Co. in 1959 and later became a creative director, the first to be promoted in Chicago for what was then considered a writer's position. He became a vice president of the agency in 1973. He was involved in many iconic ad campaigns, including Phillip Morris' "Marlboro Man," Jos. Schlitz Brewing Co.'s "you only go around once in life, so grab for all the gusto you can get," and United Airline's "fly the friendly skies of United." In 1985, Barb died at home in St. Charles, Ill., and was buried in the Pentwater Cemetery, along with their sixth child, Ross, who died following birth in 1958 and was re-interred. In 1988, Bill met Elizabeth "Betsy" Long of St. Charles, Ill., a critical-care nurse, married her, and in 1990, having retired, moved with her to Scottsdale, Ariz. But they returned to the family cottage every year to spend the summer and early fall in Pentwater. During his long retirement, Bill was involved in several volunteer organizations, for which he often wrote advertising campaigns pro bono. He also returned to painting, creating scores of works. Bill is survived by his wife, Betsy; his five children, 11 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren; and his sister, Nadine Fisher. A private memorial service is scheduled in Pentwater June 21. Regards will be gratefully received by his wife at 7328 E. Rockview Rd., Scottsdale, AZ 85266. Contributions may be made in Bill's memory to Hospice of the Valley, 1510 E. Flower St., Phoenix, AZ, 85014. Bill loved Pentwater and its people and the great lake, which he swam every day he was there. As Betsy has had inscribed on his cross, he is even now taking "a wonderful swim, to where Lake Michigan meets Heaven" - which, presumably, is not far off Pentwater's shore.	GUNN, William Chester (I108)
220	William C. Gunn, Nadine Gunn Fisher's paternal grandfather was born in Buda Illinois on July 3, 1864, a town located southwest of Princeton, Illinois in Bureau County with a population of about 650 people. William was a Mason and a member of Siloam Lodge 780 in Chicago and in 1905 at the age of 41 he transferred from Chicago to Lodge #335 in Joplin, Missouri. William Chester Gunn was a big man who always had something good to say about everyone, a trait inherited by his only child, Asa. William was a salesman for the Continental Baking Company, the bakers of Wonder bread and he died of a heart attack in 1932 at the age of 68. Nadine was seven years old at the time of his death. She remembers her grandfather's casket in the living room of their home on Taylor Avenue in Oak Park, Illinois. This was the custom in those days when families waked their loved ones in their living room instead of in funeral homes. William C. Gunn died many years ago but his name lives on because Nadine's brother is also William Chester Gunn.	GUNN, William Chester (I20)
221	William ``Bill`` Gunn Obituary Gunn, William (Bill) It is with deep regret and sadness to announce the passing on May 7, 2014, of our dear husband, father, grandfather and good friend, Bill Gunn. Born in Oak Park, Illinois in 1929, Bill graduated from Oak Park High. His proudest achievement was being the 2nd string QB on the infamous Oak Park Football Team where he earned the name `the gunner`. Bill attended Drake University in Iowa and then transferred to and graduated from Illinois Institute of Technology`s Institute of Design. Bill`s first love was painting and he was named one of the Ten Best New Painters in the United States after his graduation. Bill entered the field of advertising and eventually became one of the youngest Creative Directors at Leo Burnett Advertising Company in Chicago. After retiring from a career he loved, Bill relocated to Scottsdale where he began a whole new wonderful chapter in his life. He became a `Mulligan`. In fact one of the original first 10 Mulligans at The Boulders, whose membership now number over 100 happy fun-loving golfers. Bill is survived by his loving wife, Betsy, 5 children; Jeffrey Gunn (Carlina), Matthew Gunn, Susan Gunn, Sally Rash, and Hayes Gunn. He is also survived by 10 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren. There will be a memorial service in Pentwater, Michigan, with his family and friends. A celebration of his wonderful life will take place here in Scottsdale this fall with all of his good buddies. Contributions may be made in his memory to Hospice of the Valley , 1510 E. Flower Street, Phoenix, 85014. logo Published in The Arizona Republic on May 11, 2014 - See more at: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/azcentral/obituary.aspx?pid=170978559#sthash.HDEwaJ9A.dpuf	GUNN, William Chester (I108)

Vincent Andrews Story

In the early 19th Century, a boy, Vincent Andrews was born in London, England. He grew to be a fine, stalwart young man. He decided to choose the Army for his life work. Because of his physical and mental qualifications he was chosen to become a member of her Majesty's Coldstream Guards. Her majesty at that time was Queen Victoria, Great Grandmother of the present King George of England. The Coldstream Guards were next to the oldest regiment in the English Army and one of the choicest regiments. Their duty was to attend the sovereign. Their mounted guard guarded the Royal Residences, public buildings and Institutions. It is recorded that these Coldstream Guards from the time of inception in 1660 have always performed excellently in every line of duty.

After joining the Coldstream Guards, this young man, Vincent Andrews, met a girl from Dover, England by the name of Mary. They fell in love and were married. Their first child, a son, was born in London, May 14th, 1837. They named him John. In the year 1838 and 1839 a rebellion broke out in Canada. England sent leaders or pacifiers, to investigate possible grievances. Lord Dunham was assigned to Canada, with special assistants and special guards to quell the uprisings. Young Vincent was chosen to be one of the assistants. He and his young wife, Mary had to break their family ties in England, which had been their lifelong home and set sail to Canada, a strange land to them. On Sept. 24, 1839,while enroute from London to Canada on the steamship their second child was born a little girl which they called Sarah.

Vincent and Mary arrived in Halifax, N.S. with their two children and for several years were happy in this new land. During that time another child was born. Edward was his name, but I regret that I have no record of his life history. In the summer of 1847, nine years later, a great tragedy came to this little family. Vincent and Mary became victims of a fever and both died just six weeks apart, on Grosse Ile, (Quarantine Station for the Irish Immigrants) about 30 miles below Quebec. Three children were left without parents and all their relatives who might have aided them were far away in England. John, the oldest child, was just past ten years of age at this time. While still a very young boy He, traveled south until he came to Rossville. He stopped there and eventually sent for his sister, Sarah. Brother John and sister Sarah felt a close tie of relationship because they were alone without any kith of kin in the U.S.

When the Civil War broke out John enlisted and served through the war. My best information is that he lacked only two votes of becoming Captain of his regiment. On his return he married Loura Marie Earls. Their life together was rather short. His wife died in childbirth in 1876 leaving him with six children. He did his best to keep his family together but passed away about three years later with blood poisoning contracted while attending to his duties as Sextent of Springhill Cemetery. Four of those six children are still living today. Sarah met a widower, Alex Holden, with two small sons - a man of good standing in his community. She married him, became a second mother to his motherless boys and bore him eight children. Four of those eight are still living. Many hardships were experienced in both families but every child proved upright, trustworthy and a credit to their parents.

Three of John's children, Anna, Harve, and Jennie and three of Sarah's children, Alex, Cora, and Mary are at our reunion today. I say in all sincerity we can be proud of the Holden-Andrews family. May god bless us all and guide us so that we may all continue to keep the standard high.

When we lived in Danville, William Raymond Mauck (everyone called him Ray) worked in the office of the mine owned by my grandfather Joseph Mauck. Although I am not sure of this, I think he started out working in the mines as did most of Grandpa Joe`s children.

When my Dad and Mother moved to Chicago with their five children, he had no job and no place to live. My mother wanted to move to Chicago because her brothers were there, and the plan was to have one of my uncles live with us and help with the expenses. It was not an easy time.

My Dad did a lot of things during the depression. He worked for the New World Catholic (a newspaper), and sold insurance. He later went to work in the purchasing department of U.S. Steel at their Carnegie Works. My mother, Katherine Walsh Mauck was born in Chicago. She later lived with her uncle who was a chaplain in a Soldier`s Home in Danville.

William 'Bill' Chester Gunn Scottsdale, Ariz. and Pentwater: Newspaper Obituary and Death Notice

Oceana's Herald-Journal (Hart, MI) - Thursday, June 12, 2014
Deceased Name: William 'Bill' Chester Gunn Scottsdale, Ariz. and Pentwater

William "Bill" Chester Gunn, 84, died May 7, 2014, in Scottsdale, Ariz. A former creative director for a Chicago advertising agency and resident of Wheaton, Ill., he was a long-time summer resident of Pentwater. He and his first wife, Barbara "Barb" Weinard, and their five children, Jeffrey, Matthew, Susan, Sarah and Hayes began renting the "Tweedy" cottage in 1964, when Pentwater still had its own movie theater, commercial fishermen and fresh trout restaurants like the Driftwood Inn. After a decade of four-week stays, he and Barb built their own cottage in Garrison Park in 1974, on a bluff overlooking the great lake, where the family resided throughout the summers. Bill was born Sept. 16, 1929, and was raised in Oak Park, Ill. He attended IIT's Institute of Design, graduating in 1952. He studied design, photography and graphic art under Buckminster Fuller, Aaron Siskind and Emerson Woelffer. He began painting, and from 1950 to 1952 he exhibited his abstract expressionistic works frequently, including at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Los Angeles Art Institute in La Brea.

In 1952, Bill was drafted into the army, where he served in the White House decoding encrypted messages. His first wife, also of Oak Park, Ill., worked in the Pentagon as a secretary. Having married a year earlier, it was during this time that they began their family.

Following an honorable discharge from the army, Bill began work in the advertising field. He was hired as an art director by Leo Burnett Co. in 1959 and later became a creative director, the first to be promoted in Chicago for what was then considered a writer's position. He became a vice president of the agency in 1973. He was involved in many iconic ad campaigns, including Phillip Morris' "Marlboro Man," Jos. Schlitz Brewing Co.'s "you only go around once in life, so grab for all the gusto you can get," and United Airline's "fly the friendly skies of United."

In 1985, Barb died at home in St. Charles, Ill., and was buried in the Pentwater Cemetery, along with their sixth child, Ross, who died following birth in 1958 and was re-interred. In 1988, Bill met Elizabeth "Betsy" Long of St. Charles, Ill., a critical-care nurse, married her, and in 1990, having retired, moved with her to Scottsdale, Ariz. But they returned to the family cottage every year to spend the summer and early fall in Pentwater. During his long retirement, Bill was involved in several volunteer organizations, for which he often wrote advertising campaigns pro bono. He also returned to painting, creating scores of works.

Bill is survived by his wife, Betsy; his five children, 11 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren; and his sister, Nadine Fisher. A private memorial service is scheduled in Pentwater June 21. Regards will be gratefully received by his wife at 7328 E. Rockview Rd., Scottsdale, AZ 85266. Contributions may be made in Bill's memory to Hospice of the Valley, 1510 E. Flower St., Phoenix, AZ, 85014.

Bill loved Pentwater and its people and the great lake, which he swam every day he was there. As Betsy has had inscribed on his cross, he is even now taking "a wonderful swim, to where Lake Michigan meets Heaven" - which, presumably, is not far off Pentwater's shore.

William C. Gunn, Nadine Gunn Fisher's paternal grandfather was born in Buda Illinois on July 3, 1864, a town located southwest of Princeton, Illinois in Bureau County with a population of about 650 people.

William was a Mason and a member of Siloam Lodge 780 in Chicago and in 1905 at the age of 41 he transferred from Chicago to Lodge #335 in Joplin, Missouri.

William Chester Gunn was a big man who always had something good to say about everyone, a trait inherited by his only child, Asa.

William was a salesman for the Continental Baking Company, the bakers of Wonder bread and he died of a heart attack in 1932 at the age of 68.

Nadine was seven years old at the time of his death. She remembers her grandfather's casket in the living room of their home on Taylor Avenue in Oak Park, Illinois. This was the custom in those days when families waked their loved ones in their living room instead of in funeral homes.

William C. Gunn died many years ago but his name lives on because Nadine's brother is also William Chester Gunn.
