| 152 | "Mrs. Helen (Emerson) Smith was an excellent type of the Yankee girl with a thirst for knowledge. She improved to the utmost her somewhat scanty opportunity for education, and very early in life began to teach, at first in the home school, for nine shilling ($1.50) a week, living with the patrons of the school. Mr. Herman G. Smith was also a teacher. A few years after their marriage, they moved to Michigan, but the climate proving bad for Mrs. Smith, they went to Cass County, Iowa, where both continued to teach. In 1885, Mr. Smith was elected County Superintendent of Schools, and being re-elected several times, continued in that office for six years. Both were unusually successful in their chosen profession." | EMERSON, Helen Mar (I7782)

| 155 | "Sa veuve Thérèse Filiatrault, remariée à André Sauvé de Ste-Scholastque, réclama devant la Commission des Pertes la somme de 77 livres sterling (multiplié par 4 en 1840 équivalait à $308.00) pour propriété brùlée et pillée par les troupes. Les Commissaires rejetèrent las partie de la réclamation qui convernait effets personnels, part prise par son mari à la rébellion --- lui enlevant tout droit à une indemnité de ce chef, mais ils estimérent qu'elle avait droit, en vertu de son contrat de marriage, à la moitié des pertes subies sur les biens réels et voulerent bien lui accorder. Le nom de LOUIS n'apparait pas sur le monument des Patriotes." Source: note de Aegidius Fauteux dans Patriotes de 1837 - 38 Translation: His widow Thérèse Filiatrault, re-married to André Sauvé of Ste-Scholastique, claims to the Commission to have lost 77 sterling pounds (worth $308 in 1840) for her property burned by the troops. The commisioners rejected the part of her demands regarding her personal effects because her husband took part in the rebellion, therefore she had no right for indemnities, but they agreed that she had the right, because of her wedding contract, to half of the losses of real belongings. The name of Louis doesn't appear on the Monument to the Patriots. | VERMET, Louis (I1892)

| 158 | "The eldest son of this most respectable family" is the only one for whom a bad record has been found. He was a mariner and engaged in trade. During his absence from home he acquired bad habits of living, so that he was imprisoned abroad, and his father had to pay a heavy sum to secure his release. His abuse of his parents made necessary an appeal to the law, and he was sentenced to stand on the gallows for an hour with a rope around his neck; to be severely whipped; committed to the house of corrections; kept closely at work on a prison diet; not to be released until so ordered by the Court of Assistants, or the General Court; and to pay a fine of two hundred pounds. He was finally released and went to Rhode Island. | PORTER, John (I8079)

His father-in-law James Loftus, started with the party, but sickened with cholera and died in the vicinity of Kansas, and was buried along the trail. William Henry Cocke reached California, looked the land over and returned to Missouri, having been gone for a year. His wife, having no word in all this time, feared he was dead until he suddenly appeared one night while they were having supper. They emigrated to the West in 1854 when my father Francis Nathan was five years old. He spent the year of 1853 disposing of his property and in organizing a wagon train, of which he was to become the Wagonmaster. In the spring of 1854, all being ready, they started for California on the Overland Trail, coming through Salt Lake City. William Henry rode horseback all the way, supervising the wagon train, but his family came in a covered wagon drawn by horses.William Henry died at the age of forty-five while in Nevada on a cattle buying trip. Grandmother reached his side an hour before his death. She lived to be 74 years old, at the home of her son James Cocke, in Downey, California. William Henry had sent a telegram to her but it was held for two days in the local post office by carelessness, and did not reach his wife in time. She reached his side one hour before he died. He was buried in Nevada. The family intended to remove the remains to California later. This was never done."
