Three years later a brother, Everett was born to complete the family. When she was about six years of age the family moved to Shafter California.

She was a gifted musician playing the saxophone, cello, violin, mandolin, ukulele and she strived to master the piano. She received her Associate of Arts degree from Bakersfield Junior College in 1935 and went on to earn her Bachelor of Arts degree in 1939 from Fresno State College.

Jonas Stratton was born in Stow, Mass., Oct. 10, 1791. He was but six years old when his father died. As one of a large family of children, he was early forced to shift for himself. He lived for awhile with his older brother Lewis in Amherst, N.H., and here he learned the cabinet makers' trade. While still little more than a boy he emigrated to the "wilds of Ohio" where several of his Amherst neighbors had settled and named the little settlement Amherst, after their New Hampshire home. He worked at his trade and presently bought a farm and built a house. Mar. 31, 1822, he married Lucy Smith, and their hospitable home became the center of many happy recollections.
In this home they lived to a good old age. Mr. Stratton died Sept. 26, 1878. They were both members of the Congregationalist church.

John Stratton was married in Watertown, Mass, in 1667. His marriage is thus recorded on the town books: ?John Stratton and Mary smith joyned in Marryage the 26. 9mo. 1667.? (Mary Smith's ancestry is given on page 155.) From a deposition taken in 1672, we learn that he was born in 1642; hence was twenty-five years old at the time of his marriage. His home lot in Watertown was in the western part of the town and joined the land of his father-in-law, Thomas Smith. Here John Stratton died April 7, 1691, one month before the birth of his son Samuel. The property remained undivided for some years, the eldest son, John Stratton, Jr., ?caring for his mother and her several small children, out of his own proper estate, paying all ye debts truly and honestly and further did manage the husbandry of ye living left by his said father for full 9 years.?
In January, 1701, ?the younger children being well out of hand, the Relect Widdow and her eldest son, did mutually agree to come to a reckoning according to law and justice,? Edward Winn, attorney, of Woburn, was appointed to settle the estate. The widow, Mary, continued to live wither eldest son (who had married Bethshuah Applin) until his death in 1708, followed within a year by the death of his wife, leaving several small children. Then, John Applin, father of Bethshuah, moved with his family into the house owned by ?the late John Stratton,? and paid a yearly rent. Mary and her orphaned grandchildren seems to have lived with the Applins. January 21, 1713, ?John Applin presented a paper showing that his son, John Stratton, died in 1708, and his daughter Bethshuah, wife of John Stratton, in 1709, and that his daughter Mary Applin had charge of the children.?
January 1, 1719, ?a receipt was filed by John Applin from Mary Stratton, Widow, for her maintenance, in virtue of a bond give by her eldest son John Stratton, Jr., ?dated January 13, 1701.
Mary died September 27, 1719, having survived her husband twenty-eight years.
Children - born in Watertown.
John, b.1668; d. 1708.
Thomas, b.1670.
James, b. Jan. 18, 1672; d. 1701 in Bristol County, Mass., ?A single man.? His estate was administered by his brother-in-law, Henry Nicholson, barber, of Boston, 1702-103. He left a ?certain sum of money in the hands of Richard Greenall (or Greeval?) of Little Compton, to be delivered unto my mother Mary Stratton, widow, if she be living, in case of her decease to other relations in Watertown, New England.

Samuel, bapt. May 10, 1691, ?son of Widow Stratton.? This is probably the ?Samuel Stratton, late a soldier at Fort William? (Boston Harbor) for whom Henry Nicholson was appointed administrator, April, 13, 1722.
Of this family the births of Joh, Thomas, James, Judee and Jonathan are the only ones recorded on the town records of Watertown; the baptisms of Mercy and Samuel are from the Bailey manuscript; court files show that Mary, Sarah and Hannah belonged to this family; no evidence has been found of any other children.

Thomas Stratton was born in Watertown in 1670 and married there in 1699. Town records: ?Thomas Stratton son of John and Mary Stratton borne the 26 Day of October? ?Thomas Stratton and Dorcas Maxwel Joyned in married: July: 19: 1699.? Dorcas Maxwell was a daughter of Thomas and Dorcas Maxwell of Boston. She was born February 27, 1867. Thomas Maxwell was a member of the ?Scots Charitable Society? in Boston, which determines his nationality. From 1680 onward for about a quarter of a century, he was a ?Sealer of Leather? in the town of Boston, and in 1683 was a doorkeeper in the ?Great and General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Provence.?
Thomas and Dorcas Stratton lived in the Western Precinct of Watertown, where nine children were born unto them. December 1, 1727, Thomas was chosen Surveyor of Highways. In 1731 the town paid him for timber from his farm for a bridge near Deacon Livermore's mill. December 16, 1732, he was still living in Watertown, when ?consideration of ye petition of Thomas Stratton and others was adjourned to ye next selectmans' meeting.? The petition did not come up at the next meeting, and the name does not later occur on the town or church books at Watertown or Waltham. No record of the death of Thomas, nor that of Dorcas, has been found. It is probable that they removed with some of their children to some other town and died there.

Of this family David is the only son who settle in Watertown (later Waltham). He seems to have lived on the homestead farm; and some of his children lived there as late, at least, as 1764. Of the sons Thomas, Samuel, and Ebanezer, information is much desired. This may be the Samuel Stratton mentioned in the proprietor's records of Mendon who helped in the survey of the town and had a grant of land April 26, 1736, and who married Mary, daughter of Samuel Walker, of Framingham, November 17, 1737, and in 1741 was in Hopkinton. The compiler has no further record of him.

133 From A Merrill Memorial:
Wilterton Merrill was born 28 June 1675 in Hartford, Conn., and died 14 May 1755, having lived in Hartford all his life. Gregory Wilterton of Hartford, who is supposed to have been a connection of the family, at his death, in July 1674, left the larger portion of his estate to John Merrill, and John Merrill names his next-born son in honor of his benefactor. Wilterton Merrill was one of the original proprietors of the town of Winchester, Conn. in 1744, but he never lived there. He married (1) 1 Jan 1702/3 to Ruth Pratt, daughter of John and Hepzibah Pratt of Hartford; she was born 21 Dec 1677; he married (2) 20 Jan 1708/9 Hannah Waters, daughter of Bevil Waters of Hartford; she died 8 May 1730, age 49 and he married (3) Elizabeth, who survived him.

135 From John Watson of Hartford, Connecticut, and his descendants.
John Watson is supposed to have been a native of England. A tradition among his descendants, says, that one of the passengers on the same vessel with him was Peggy Smith, a young woman who fell overboard, and that he saved her life, and on reaching New England they were married.

We first find him in Hartford, Onn., in 1644, in which year he was a juror. In 1646, he was highway surveyor; and, as shown by Mr. W.S. Porter, he lived on lot No.9, South Main street in 1646. He afterwards bought land of the original proprietors in the West Division, now West Hartford.

137 From the Genealogy of the Bigelow family of America. Page 31.
Joseph Bigelow of Hartford, Conn., son of Jonathan and Mary (Oloott) Bigelow, was born about 1690, and married May 21, 1718, Sarah Spencer, and settled in Hartford, where he died about 1731. On the death of his father he was appointed executor (with his step-mother) of the estate, and became a large land owner in Hartford. May 1, 1722, we find that Joseph Bigelow, son of Jonathan Bigelow, appeared at the Probate Court and appealed from the decision of the court in allowing Jonathan Butler to hold the property of John Bigelow, but was overruled on the appeal. His will dates Sept. 3, 1731, mentions wife Sarah; sons Joseph, Elisha and Josiah; daughters Sarah, Mary and Abigail, and kinsman Jona.Williams, probably his brother-in-law. To his daughters he gave eighty pounds each, and named his wife Sarah and son Joseph as executors. They were duly appointed as such Feb. 19, 1732. The children of Joseph were;
Sarah, b. Sept 6, 1715.
Joseph, b. June 9, 1717; married and lived in Hartford.

138 From The Merrill Memorial
Page 105
John Merrill (son of Nathaniel) was born about 1635 in Newbury, Mass., and died 18 July, 1712, in Hartford, Conn. He settled in Hartford as early as 1657, in which year he became an owner of land there. It is probable that he went to Hartford before coming of age, for he is said to have been adopted by Gregory Wilterton of that town. He was admitted a freeman 20 May, 1658. He was a tanner, and lived on the south side of Elm St., on the second lot west from the corner of Main St. After some years he removed to the West Division of the town, now West Hartford, where he made large purchases of land in 1683 and the following years. In 1684, 1694 and 1700 he was a "townsman", or selectman, and he was a deacon of the Second Church. He married, 23 Sep. 1863, Sarah Watson, daughter of John and Margaret (Smith) Watson of Hartford. His eight sons and two daughters, and the daughters' husbands, were all living at his death.

Granola nourishes memories
SHERREL JONES
Published: Wed, September 6, 2000, 12:00 AM
I have a passion for homemade granola. My recent visit to Kingston Elementary School in southern Oklahoma brought back fond memories. Thinking about all the energy teachers and students expend is certainly an inspiration to look for healthy ways to start the day. Granola makes a great start for a busy day.
All of us probably remember our first-grade teachers. Mine was Mrs. Robinson, and her smile of approval was a high priority for me at Dickson School, a large district about 10 miles east of Ardmore.
Mrs. Robinson was pleasant and patient. I thought her penmanship the best I had seen. I worked so hard to make my letters look as pretty and as straight as hers.
I almost got my only spanking in school from her, though. Mrs. Robinson kept a little paddle ball paddle for this purpose. I had put my early penmanship skills to practice writing a note to Steve Wells, my elementary school boyfriend.
When she asked me to bend over, I told her my tummy hurt. She said that I needed to stand on the porch area instead and have some fresh air. Excluded from the classroom that day, I would never know if the paddle hurt more than one's pride. Still, the school remains a happy memory.
I remember the Dickson School cafeteria's macaroni and cheese and the pinto beans. Mother only cooked the little white navy beans, so the pintos were a new treat for me. They were so good.
We enjoyed nice desserts and lots of flavored gelatin in that cafeteria. Often, we had cherry or peach cobbler, always with a flaky crust atop. Boy that tasted good!
When I taught in Stillwater, our cafeteria sent trays of crispy cinnamon toast to the teacher's lounge. It was made from heavily buttered slices of the previous day's cinnamon rolls. Delicious!

149 Hazel Vivian Reed Ogden O'Brate was born in Eureka Springs, Arkansas Sept 21, 1892. When she was two years old, the Reed family moved to Lincoln, Kan. At the age of Fourteen, she was baptized in the Saline River and became a member of the Methodist Church. She later joined the Christian Church.
In 1906 she moved with her family to Enid, Okla., and three years later she was united in marriage to Samuel Ogden who lived near Enid. To this union six children were born. The family resided near Enid until most of the children were grown. They then moved to California and lived for several years. On Feb 3, 1950, her husband died and in 1956 she married Anthony O'Brate of Syracuse, Kansas. The O'Brate's and Ogdens had been life-long friends, so being united by this marriage made the bond even closer. She and Anthony had 14 happy years together, but, during this time, Hazel's health failed, and, for many years, she has been an invalid. Anthony's death came in 1970.
Whoever wrote "God couldn't be everywhere so he made mothers" must certainly have had Hazel in mind. Even during her many years in the rest home, she was loved by all who came in contact with her. Her kindness, patience, and bits of humor made her a favorite with everyone. Her death came Oct 4, 1975, at the Hamilton county long term care unit.
Surviving her are four children; Jessie Mae Ashley of Phoenix, Arizona; Dorothy Eastman, Lucille Hart and Norval Ogden of the San Diego area. Two sons, Floyd and Earl, preceded her in death as did three step-sons this same year. She also leaves two sisters, Crystal Johnson and Jessie Ogden of California; three step-children, Helen Christiansen, Walsh, Colo; Larry O'Brate, Bowie, MD; and Howard O'Brate, Garden City, Kan. Surviving too, are 18 grandchildren, one great-grandchild and many other relatives and friends.
