Welcome to another edition of the Van Bibber family newsletter. November is a unique month as we celebrate both Veterans Day and Thanksgiving. On Veterans Day we honor those men and women who have served our country in the United States military. On Thanksgiving we give thanks for all our blessings. I hope everyone enjoyed these two holidays.
I thought what better time than this month to recognize our Veterans. As you know I sent out a message asking if you had any Veterans of the family you would like mentioned in the newsletter. I was very pleased at the responses I received. Included in the "Military" section of this newsletter are those Veterans you wanted to recognize for their service and sacrifices they have made for their country. A hearty salute and a big thanks goes out to all of them.
I have always enjoyed publishing the newsletter but this one was extremely pleasing because of all the responses and inputs. Keep up the contributions and we will continue to have an interesting and informative family newsletter. I will be calling for your inputs to December's newsletter in a week or two.
I hope you enjoy your November's issue.
Your Editor,
Gary R. Hawpe

CORRECTIONS:
In October's newsletter under "Discussions," the birth date of Isaac Van Bibber was erroneously listed as 1775. It should have read 1725. This was brought to my attention by various subscribers. What Bruce did is go back and change it to the correct date on the website. If you printed the newsletter with the error, my recommendation is to reprint page #22 with the correct date.

JUDGE RODNEY J. HUDSON
HUDSON, JUDGE RODNEY J. Whose portrait it affords us pleasure to present in the body of this work, was born at St. Helena, Napa County, February 20, 1850, and is the son of David and Frances Hudson. Judge Hudson springs from a fine family, his father being a scion of the well-known and highly esteemed Catron family of Tennessee, one of whom, for a period of thirty years, was a highly distinguished Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. His mother was a native of North Carolina, and is allied by blood to one of its best families. Young Hudson grew up at his birthplace, and made the best of the imperfect advantages for obtaining a primary education, which the then inefficient conditions of the schools offered. At the age of fifteen he entered an academy at Sonoma, which was conducted under the auspices of the Presbyterians, where Latin and the higher mathematics were taken up. At the end of the term he wrote and delivered his maiden oration, which was highly complimented by the Professors of the Academy, and served to show clearly the bent of the boy's mind, the latent powers that lay within him awaiting proper development. He then returned to his father's farm, but books had a much greater attraction for him than the humdrum, prosaical avocation of tramping up and down a furrow behind a plow, and a book was generally carried to the field, which received much more attention than the work in hand. He then spent three years in attendance at the St. Helena public schools, which were then of high grade, and here he learned to read Latin fluently and made considerable progress in the high mathematics. During his attendance at this school, and while yet only eighteen years of age, he made his debut into the political arena. In 1868, during the campaign of Seymour and Blair on the one side and Grant and Wilson on the other, a political meeting was held in St. Helena. The late Hon. W. W. Pendegast was the speaker of the evening, and among those present were young Hudson and his father and mother. At the close of Mr. Pendegast's speech the audience began to call loudly for Rodney Hudson, whose abilities as an orator were even then well known among his friend and acquaintances, and by them fully recognized. When the calls for the young man became so persistent that it became evident that the crowd would not hear a refusal, his father departed, either thinking that his presence would embarrass the boy, or not desiring to be present to witness what he considered inevitable failure. His mother, too, felt that a crisis in the boy's life was just at hand, and with her womanly sensitiveness shrank instinctively from witnessing it. But the father's flight and the mother's fears were unnecessary, for the youthful orator was equal to the occasion, and for the space of half an hour he held the audience with his fluent and graceful oratory, and surprised even his best friends by his knowledge of the political issues of the day. Owing to his youth, the effort was regarded with a great deal of favor by all who heard it, and created quite a sensation, and from that time on he has always sustained a high reputation as a public speaker. His next move was to take charge of the St. Helena public schools, having a scholarship of about two hundred, and two assistant teachers. In 1869 he entered the University of Michigan. In a short time his health failed, and he was forced to quit school and return to California. He then entered the law office of Thomas P. Stoney, then County Judge of Napa County, as a student, where he remained for one year. On the occasion of the Fourth of July celebration at St. Helena in 1872, young Hudson, then only twenty-two years of age, was called upon to deliver the oration for the occasion. An extract from the Nap Register, then edited by G.W. Henning, will give an idea of the merits of the effort produced by Mr. Hudson on the occasion: "The oration was by Rodney J. Hudson, whom St. Helena may be flattered to call her 'boy.' Rodney---he will excuse the familiarity---looks the orator. He has a talent which, if cultivated, will place him in the very front rank of public speakers. His personelle and the fact that he was their own, created an interest in him which was not diminished in the least by his finely turned and patriotic periods. * * * We hope he will not go into politics. There is a crown awaiting him in his legitimate professional career which will set more lightly and gracefully upon his head than ever politician's will." In the fall of 1872 he entered the Law School at Lebanon, Tennessee, then presided over by the venerable Judge Carothers. While there he delivered an oration on Washington, which was complimented very highly by the Nashville Union, an extract from which we include in this connection: "His audience was thrilled with delight, excited alike by the spirit and eloquence of his words. The Golden State may well be proud of her representative in the Law School of the University." He graduated at this school and returned to California in 1873. In 1874 he formed a law partnership with the leading practioner in the southern part of the State. After having been there for four or five months he was called upon to make a Fourth of July address, of which the Los Angeles Star says: "The oration was the most superb effort of the kind ever made in Los Angeles. It was beautiful in all its points, and may be considered an oratorical gem of the first water. We have heard the oration spoken of everywhere as excellent, but not more so than its delivery, which was very fine." In 1875 he was nominated and elected by the Democratic party to the position of District Attorney of Los Angeles County. His first case was for murder, and the man was defended by Col. J. G. Howard, confessedly the ablest criminal lawyer in Southern California. The accused was convicted, and when the District Judge came down from the bench he said: "Mr. Hudson, you have conducted this case as well as any lawyer." He retained the office for two years, when, on account of failing health, he came to Lake County and opened a law office. Here he began at once to build up and maintain a good practice, rarely losing a case before a jury. Mr. Hudson sprang boldly and nobly into the great fight made for the new Constitution, urging its adoption by the people with the greatest vigor and eloquence. He took the field and made several brilliant and telling speeches, and was called the captain of the new Constitution forces in Lake County. In 1878 he was put in nomination for the position of Superior Judge of Lake County. It was a matter of serious doubt with his best friends whether or not he could win in the contest, his youth and limited acquaintance militating much against his chances of success. As for himself, he saw that only energy and determination could make success possible, and he mad a thorough and personal canvass of the county, and then just upon the eve of the election addressed the people of the county in almost every voting precinct, which was evidently the great element of his success, as he was able to bring out the merits of his own case with a master hand. He was elected by a large plurality, showing that good work had been accomplished. Once elected, the problem of convincing the people of his judicial fairness and integrity confronted him. Upon taking the bench he announced to the bar that he would endeavor to be impartial and upright, and that he know that he would be endeavor to be impartial and upright, and that he knew that he would endeavor to be impartial and upright, and that he knew that he would be independent, as he did not owe his election to any corporation or powerful influence, but to the people. That he has kept his promise is attested by all the bar of Lake County. He has the reputation of observing a uniform courtesy to the bar while presiding, of being positive in his rulings, and swift to retreat when shown to be in error. Of Judge Hudson the Bulletin of Lake County says: "His rulings exhibit fine legal acumen, and he is one of the best judges in California, and after a while Lake County will be proud to help place him in Congress, where his singular abilities as an orator may have a fitting field in which to display their powers." Rodney J. Hudson is the youngest, but one, of the Superior Judges in this State; and who can read this sketch and see how he has climbed up the ladder, round by round, until he reached that high position when only twenty-nine years of age, without feeling proud of our grand American principles of liberty which give to worth, merit, and real labor, their just meed of reward. He was united in marriage in April 1881, to Miss Panthea Boggs, daughter of A. G. Boggs, of Napa City.

CALIFORNIA FIREFIGHTER
RECEIVES BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AWARD FOR
VALOR FOR RESCUING VEHICLE COLLISION VICTIMS
Firefighter/Paramedic Jasen Brown of the City of Alhambra, Calif. Fire Department has been selected as this year's winner of the International Benjamin Franklin Fire Service Award for Valor.
This award, co-sponsored by the International Association of Fire Chiefs and Motorola, Inc., will be presented at Fire-Rescue International, one of the largest annual fire and emergency services conferences and expositions in the world. It will be held August 22-25, 2003, at the Dallas Convention Center in Dallas, Texas.
Brown was selected for an act of bravery and heroism at the scene of a major traffic collision in the city of Ventura, Calif. On Feb. 4, 2003, Brown, who was off duty at the time, came upon the scene of a two-vehicle collision and observed a woman who appeared to be in critical condition. Upon further assessment of the situation, Brown observed a 6-month-old infant and a 2-year-old toddler, both in full arrest, in the back seat of the vehicle.
Brown quickly removed the infant from the car and immediately began performing CPR. When he realized that the car was on fire, he freed the 2-year-old, handed the toddler to an off-duty police officer and instructed him to start CPR. After both children were freed, Brown struggled to free the woman in the front of the car. Despite the intensifying fire, Brown, with assistance from civilian bystanders, pulled the trapped woman from the car. Once she was extricated, Brown performed patient assessments on the two injured patients from the second car and provided patient care to all injured individuals until Ventura City Fire arrived.
Because of Brown's quick action and skill levels, he is responsible for saving the life of the woman trapped in the burning car. Unfortunately, both children died from their injuries. However the three adults survived the collision because of the life-saving actions and medical treatment initially provided by Brown.
For his valiant and selfless act above and beyond the call of duty, Firefighter/Paramedic Jasen Brown has been awarded the International Benjamin Franklin Fire Service Award for Valor. This award is the highest honor bestowed by the International Association of Fire Chiefs. On behalf of the entire Alhambra Fire Department, Chief Vincent L. Kemp will accept the International Benjamin Franklin Departmental Leadership Award in recognition of the department's professionalism, service to the public and contribution to the fire service.
This year marks the 34th anniversary of the valor award, which is customarily presented to an individual firefighter for life-saving efforts above and beyond the call of duty. The award is named for Benjamin Franklin, who was one of the first fire chiefs in the United States.

History of Benton County, Oregon -- Published by David D. Fagan, A. G. Walling Printer - 1885 -- Page #528.
LAZARUS VANBEBER — Among the many pioneers of Benton County, there are none more highly respected than this early argonaut of King’s Valley, having arrived in that beautiful place where the whole valley lay in its virginity and the feet of white man had hardly tread upon it —— his was among the first to press it. Mr. Vanbeber was born in Clayton county, Tennessee, February 27, 1807. At the age of twenty-one years he emigrated to Illinois, where he followed farming until the spring of 1846, when, with his family and mule teams, he crossed the plains to Oregon, and to Benton County, taking up his donation claim in King’s Valley, where Morris Allen, now lives. He now owns a farm of three hundred and fifty acres in the south end of the valley where he now resides.

A young man lost his life and three persons were injured Thursday night in motor vehicle accidents in Portsmouth.
Samuel David Adams, 28, son of Allen W. Adams, 1011 Offner Street, was injured fatally and his uncle, William Hoobler, 48, was hurt at 6:25 p.m. when a motorcycle left the highway and crashed into a tree at North Moreland.

Memory of a Good
Husband and Father
The things we feel so deeply,
Will be the hardest things to say.
God saw you were
getting weaker,
And carried you away.
The family chain is broken,
And our hearts are too,
But when we meet over yonder,
There will be lots to do.
We'll have a joyous reunion,
And mend the link that's broken.
Until that day comes,
we all know you're
in the arms of Jesus.
Friends may call form 6 to 8 TONIGHT at the Clifford-Shoemaker Funeral Home, 1930 Front St., Cuyahoga Falls, where a funeral service will be conducted at 1 p.m. Friday, grandson Joseph Rubino officiating.

"And they who for their country die
Shall fill an honored grave,
For glory lights the soldier's tomb,
And beauty weeps the brave."
-Joseph Rodman Drake
Dear Mr. Tillis and family,
Both the Navy Department's telegram and the Commanding Officer's have reached you by this time and you know that your son Arnold, Jr. died of injuries sustained in action.
It was my privilege to minister to him during the last week of his life and I learned in that brief time to admire his courage and unselfishness. His refusal to leave his post of duty contributed to his death. He was closely watched in sick bay, and the corpsman gave him the most constant and careful attention. I visited him frequently, but he was too weak to talk much. Death when was very sudden. I passed through the ward early in the morning and found him sleeping. Half an hour later I was shocked to hear of his death.
You will be gratified to know that Arnold received a Christian burial ashore. I am glad that we were not obliged to hold the funeral at sea.
The Chaplain of a shore station placed his Chapel at my disposal. A detachment of Arnold's shipmates went ashore with me and we held a very simple and dignified service in the Chapel and then marched to the cemetary, where after a few prayers were read, a firing squad fired the volleys over the grave and the bugler sounded taps. You will be told in due time where your son lies, and if you wish to remove his body to the United States after the war, you will probably be permitted to do so.
If you feel after the war, that a detailed account of the last few days of Arnold's life would console you, you will be able to reach me at 202 South 18th Street, Philadelphia, Pa. The censorship imposes certain restrictions on us now but when the war is over I shall be free to give you particulars that cannot be disclosed at present.
The Navy Relief Society will send a representative to offer you help. The Red Cross will be glad to guide you in obtaining the benefits to which you son's death entitles you.
We were at fond of Arnold and he leaves behind many sorrowing shipmates. The men have asked me to assure you of their deepest sympathy. I will remember you in my prayers, and I hope eventually you will find divine comfort in your grief.
Sincerely yours,
W.C. Klein USNR
of the U.S.S. Alpine

Hi Gary,
I don't have all the details about my family as veterans, however I think it would be nice to list some of them.
Isaac Van Bibber, War of 1812.
Robinson Van Bibber, 92nd OVI, killed Battle of Missionary Ridge, Civil War.
My Grandparents had five sons, four of which were in World War II.
Dale Van Bibber - Army - Pacific
Robert Van Bibber - Army - Europe
Harold Van Bibber - Navy - Submariner
Paul Van Bibber - Navy - Surface Ships
All came home safe and all died within about one and a half years of each other, and all are buried in Mifflin Cemetery in Gahanna, Ohio. My other uncle, Donald Van Bibber, served in the Army during the Korean War and was in a Tank Division. He is buried in Maplewood Cemetery in New Albany, Ohio. My son David served in the Army as well as my son-in-law Larry King. They both served in the Gulf War. I wish I had more information.
Jim Van Bibber -- judyandjim@

Hi Gary,
Good idea of yours to honor those who have served for us all.
These are the children of Gracie VanBever McCreary, daughter of John and Mariah VanBever:
1. John McCreary was a Sergeant in the United States Army Air Corps during World War II and died in a training accident in Wichita, Kansas in May 1945.
2. Frederick McCreary, enlisted during WWII, served in a bomber squadron off of the USS Intrepid. He was captured by the Japanese in the Pacific when his plane was hit and he bailed out. He died in June 1945 when the Japanese set fire to the entrance of the cave they were kept in. They either burned to death, or ran and were shot...ashes came home.
3. Helen McCreary, enlisted during WWII in Women's Army Corps. She married the man who brought her brother's ashes home.
4. George McCreary 1950-195? (not sure, only one tour) - United States Marine Corps - Korean War.

ACCESS TO MILITARY SERVICE AND PENSION RECORDS
Some of you wrote me and said you would like to recognize your Veterans but you were not sure when they served and what ranks they were. Located below is the location where you can order military records and find out additional information on those who have served in the United States military.
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is the official repository for records of military personnel who have been discharged from the U.S. Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, Navy and Coast Guard.
The two main repositories for records relating to military service are:
