Carl Marcus Olson Obituary
From Local Newspaper
Date: Tuesday, April 8, 1919Carl Olson Dies with Pneumonia Was Well Known Conductor - Was Well Known Conductor (picture included)
At an early hour last Tuesday morning, April 1, Carl Olson, one of Westwood’s best known young men, died with pneumonia, following an attack of Spanish influenza. The community was shocked to hear of Mr. Olson’s death, as he had up to a few days before been in the best of health. He had been taken ill while at work with his crew. They were clearing a switch on the road out of Westwood where it was necessary to handle a lot of snow, when Mr. Olson complained of not feeling well. He gave up work and went home, but his condition grew worse and a week later pneumonia developed. The disease had taken a firm hold and all efforts to save him were unavailing. His devoted wife, though just recovering form the influenza and in a very weak condition, was in attendance, and with other relatives was with him when he died. He breathed his last about 1:20 o’clock Tuesday morning, a week after the death of his chief, Hugh Contryman.
Carl Marcus Olson, son of Mr. And Mrs. M. O. Olson, and brother of Mrs. H. F. Kendall, was born at Thorpe, Wisconsin, on May 13, 1888. When Carl was but a small boy his parents removed to Minnesota, and his father entered the employ of the Red River Lumber Company. Carl also entered their employ when he was about 18 years old, beginning as a time-keeper in one of their camps. Being unusually bright and efficient, he advanced rapidly and became a valued assistant in several positions. He was, however, attracted by the whirr of the wheels, and sought the work of railroading. Though offered splendid inducements and more lucrative positions he chose to stay with the trains. He came to Westwood about three years ago, and has since been working as conductor on one of the logging trains. His fellow workmen were deeply attached to him and his death has cast a cloud of gloom over them. Carl Olson was a man who commanded the respect of all, and being of a likeable disposition he was the friend of every one who knew him.
He was united in marriage to Miss Grace Burger in September, 1916, and has since resided at 207 Delwood street, where they had a beautiful home. Thursday morning funeral services were held at the church. The body was escorted from the chapel to the church. Rev. R. G. Green delivered a splendid funderal sermon, and gave touching reminiscences of the life of mr. Olson whom he had known from boyhood. Mrs. A. N. Jensen and Mrs. H. M. Foss sang two songs, accompanied by Mrs. F. L. Walker. Several beautiful floral pieces were given by the trainmen, office force of the Company and friends.
The casket was borne by the following pall bearers: Ed. Page, C. E. Clough, Pete Sutton, A. R. Durrill, Ed Fex and Ed Craig. The body was taken to Reno on the 12:30 train, accompanied by Mrs. Olson, Mr. And Mrs. L. C. Berger (sic), Mrs. A. L. Berger (sic), Rev. R. G. Green and Jack Engelbritsen. On arrival at Reno the party was met by a delegation of railroad employees and the body escorted to the undertaking parlors.
Mrs. M. O. Olson, mother of the deceased, arrived in Reno from Minnesota early Friday morning. The burial took place at 2 o’clock under the direction of the B. of R. T. in the Railroad Men’s Cemetery.

Jost D. (Dieterich or Demuth?) Petrie [Parents] [scrapbook] was born on 18 Nov 1822 in Little Falls, N.Y,. He died on 13 Jun 1911 in Cottage Grove, Lane Co., Oregon. He married J. Forinda Holcomb on 25 Feb 1847 in Concord, Wisconsin.
Information from "The Mohawk Valley Petries..." by Hazel Patrick (1979), and also from correspondence and notes shared by William Robert Brittenham.
In Hazel Patrick's book she writes:
(page 27)"Jost D. Petrie, born November 18, 1822 near Little Falls, N.Y. He spent his early life at Little Falls where he was educated and went to Concord, Jefferson County, Wisconsin in Sept., 1843. He bought state land, which was at that time a wilderness of timber and brush. Jost did his full share of the pioneer work incident to those days, as he had little or nothing to begin with. He literally chopped out his farm and home and acquired 210 acres of well improved land as his reward. Jost was a Republican in politics; chairman of the town board and town clerk for many years; town superintendent of schools; member of Wisconsin's Legislature in 1861. Raised full blooded and graded Durham cattle, besides horses and hogs."
Further, on the same page:
"Anna (Petrie) Olson, Adam's daughter, informed Mrs. Edward Davern (Olive Petrie) that Adam's uncle John D. Petrie went west and wrote he had made his "pile" and was returning. He was never heard from again. Nothing is known of his children, if any." (Note: Since he was Adam's brother he would be Uncle Jost to Annie. )
And on page 51:
"Jost D. Petrie (Referred to as Uncle Jost). In Sept. 1843 he moved to Concord, Jefferson Co., Wisconsin. Afterwards, he moved to Loraine, Oregon. He became a member of the Legislature. He married J. Florinda Holcomb, Feb. 25, 1847. Children: 7.
2811 Ellen L. Petrie, married ..... Lockwood.
2812 Channing Petrie, died 1925. Married...... Children: 3.
2813 Irving, Petrie.
2814 Harley H. Petrie, died 1923. Married .....Widow. Married (2) an Adams.
2815 Jost Petrie.
2816 Two children died in infancy.
2817 Earnest Petrie.
2819 Kossuth Petiie."It appears that much of the above information was taken from the following biographical sketch which appeared in "The History of Jefferson County, Wisconsin", published in Chicago by the Western Historical Company, 1879. This information was shared by James Allen Kendall:
"J. D. PETRIE, farmer, Secs. 16 and 21; P.O. Concord; born in Little Falls, Herkimer Co., N.Y., Nov. 18, 1822; spent his early life in Little Falls, where he was educated, and came to Concord, Jefferson Co., Wis., in September, 1843. He bought State land which was at this time a wilderness of timber and brush. Mr. Petrie did his full share of the pioneer work incident to those days, as he had little or nothing to begin with; he literally chopped out his farm and home, and now has 210 acres of well-improved land as a reward. He married Miss J. F. Holcomb Feb. 25, 1847; they have four children living - Ellen L., Ellery C., Irving W. and Harley H. Mr. Petrie is a Republican, and has been Chairman of the Town Board and Town Clerk many years; he was Town Superintendent of schools under the old system, and was a member of the Wisconsin Legislature in 1861 and also in 1867. As one of the successful pioneer farmers, he has full-blooded and grade Durham cattle, beside horses and hogs."
J. Forinda Holcomb.J. married Jost D. (Dieterich or Demuth?) Petrie on 25 Feb 1847 in Concord, Wisconsin.

Hi Barb, In the 1830 atlas I find an E. Hill and an E. Hill, Jr. listed in Windsor Twp.; also, there's an Elijah Hill and Elijah Hill, Jr. A John Hill is listed in Monroe Twp. There is no surname of Moore listed in this atlas.
In the 1874 atlas there is no index so a paid researcher would have to comb each individual plat map for you. From the 1870 census for this county, however, I can tell you that there is a number of families living in this county with the surname of Moore and Hill. There is a Robert Moore living in Saybrook Twp. at this time.
