254 | Annals of Philadelphia and Pennsylvania in the olden times. We are not aware of any place, new known, on which any of the aforesaid Swedish family dwelt, save that of the Still family in the time of its head, Olof Stille, which is marked in Lindstrom's map, as "Stille's land," in the neck. Its Indian name was Techoherassi, being "a place on the Schuylkill shore, and surrounded with water like an island." It was "a small plantation, built by freemen, and was much frequented by the Indians, who gave Mr. Stille the name of 'the man with the black beard,' because of his strong black beard." The manner of living among the Swedes, as told by themselves, in a letter in the year 1693, to John Thelin, of Gottenberg, is as follows: We are almost all of us husbandmen, and our meat and drink is after the old Swedish custom. The country is very rich and fruitful, and we send out yearly to our neighbours on this continent, and the neighbouring islands, bread, grain, flour and oil. We have here, thank God, all kinds of venison, birds and fishes. Our wives and daughters spin wool and flax, and many of them weave. We live in great peace and friendship with the Indians; and we only wish we had good and faithful shepherds and guardians of our souls; we many add, that since we are no longer under the government of Sweden, we have been well and kindly treated by the Dutch and the English." The foregoing letter was presented to King Charles XI., who thereupon ordered three ministers to be sent with Bibles, prayer books, and catechisms. page 233. | Stille, Olof Persson (I5687)

The doctor comes here after the practice of several years in North Dakota where he assisted the State authorities in their car of live stock and after graduating from the reputable Chicago school, has had actual training before coming to Big Sandy. The field here is a large one and live stock, like human beings are not always in good health and we bespeak a lucrative practice for him. The Bear Paw Mountaineer, Big Sandy, Montana.

She was born February 21, 1925 in Wilmore, Kentucky to Harvey Edgar Moody and Blanche Hagerdon Moody, as the fourth child of seven. After graduating from high school in Wilmore, Kentucky, Stella moved to Huntsville, Alabama, where she lived with her sister and worked at the PX on the nearby army base. There, she met Rushford Lee Sweeney, Jr., who was serving in the U.S. Army after graduating from Texas A&M. They married on February 26, 1944, shortly after Stella’s 19th birthday.

After seventy years of marriage, husband R.L. passed away in 2014. Stella was also a faithful and longtime member of Chapelwood Methodist Church in Lake Jackson. In her spare time, she enjoyed crabbing, playing cards, visiting with family and friends, and, in particular, golfing with other ladies at Riverside Country Club. She always enjoyed having company at her home and was a very special grandmother who eagerly planned fun activities to amuse her beloved grandchildren, who all affectionately called her “Memer,” a name of which she was quite proud.
