Brenda Kendig von Fehrn writes: I believe that Susan's father was Boston Frog listed in the 1790 Maryland census as living in Patapsco Lower Hundred, Baltimore, Maryland. As I have found no other Frogs in the area other than an Elizabeth in the marriage records which could be her sister. I'm still working on trying to verify that Boston was Susan's father.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES, BELMONT COUNTY, OHIO    Contributed by Brenda Kendig von Fehrn
"History of the Upper Ohio Valley" Vol. II, 1890.  Presented by Linda Fluharty from hard copies provided by Mary Staley & Phyllis Slater.  Pages 705-707.

WILLIAM B. KIRK, the prosperous merchant and wool dealer of Morristown,Belmont county, Ohio, is a representative of a very old and influential family. His great-great-grandfather's name was Alfancy Kirk, who was born in Scotland and came to this country in early manhood; the great- grand father's name was Adam Kirk, who was a physician. His three sons were William, Adam and Caleb. All that is known of the latter is that he owned a large flour-mill on the Brandywine. William, the grandfather of the subject of this sketch, and his brother Adam, left Chester county, Penn., in 1796, and moved to Fayette county, Penn. After a residence in the last named county of sixteen years, they came to Belmont county, Ohio.

In a few years Adam took up his abode in the western portion of the state, and nothing further is known of him or his family, except that a part of his sons went to Indiana. William Kirk remained in Belmont county until his death in the year 1842. His eight children were: Hannah, Samuel, Mary, Isaac, Robert, Phebe, Edith and William. The latter died when twenty-two years of age. The mother of these children was Edith. Robert lived to be eighty-two years old. Samuel died in his eighty-sixth year and Isaac in his eighty-seventh year.

Samuel was the father of William B. Kirk. He was born June 2, 1792. About 1816 he was joined in marriage to Rachael Jones, a native of Jefferson county, Va. Six of their children reached maturity. They were: Levi, Sarah A., Edith, William B., Samuel and Lydia H. William B., Sarah A. and Lydia H., still survive.

William B. Kirk was born in Belmont county, Ohio, July 8, 1822, on a farm within a mile of the village of Flushing. He obtained his education by his own efforts, working hard during the day, he would study at night by the light of a fireplace, getting what help he could from his father. He taught school for seventeen years, his first charge being near the town of Athens, Ohio.   November 27, 1845, he took Miss Ann Jinkins to wife. She is a daughter of James and Margaret Jinkins, the former a native of Virginia, who came to Ohio with his parents when a mere lad. Margaret (Barlow) Jinkins was born in Maryland, and came to Ohio with her parents when a small child. The father died in his eighty-seventh year, and the mother at the advanced age of ninety years. Mr. and Mrs. William B. Kirk are the parents of five children: Cyrus H., born September 18, 1846; John J., born February 16, 1849; Samuel A., born March 29, 1851, died November 5, 1853; Ralph W., born April 22, 1858, and Elwilla, born March 9, 1862.

August 7, 1862, Mr. Kirk entered the Union army as captain of Company B, One Hundred and Twenty-sixth regiment of the Ohio volunteer infantry. He was honorably discharged for disability, June 24, 1863. Captain Kirk has several highly complimentary official documents in his possession, setting forth his efficiency as an officer in the service and petitioning his admittance as an officer to the Invalid Corps. They are signed by the following distinguished officers: Lieutenant Colonel William Harlan, One Hundred and Twenty-sixth regiment Ohio volunteer infantry; B. F. Smith, colonel commanding the Third brigade, Third division, Third army corps; and Brigadier General B. F. Kelley. Mr. Kirk was prevented from further service however, by the ravages of disease. But his valor and patriotism are fully evidenced by his bravery and patriotism during the term of hard service in which he was engaged. Mr. Kirk has been honored by his fellow townsmen by being elected as clerk of the township, and also as a justice of the peace.

After the war he embarked in the mercantile and wool-buying business, and has since continued with much success. Mr. Kirk is a believer in the doctrines laid down by Swedenborg, but his wife is a member of the Methodist Episcopal church. He is a member of the Robert Hallis post, of Barnesville, of the G. A. R., and is also a member of the F. & A. M., Hazen lodge, No. 251, and the I. O. O. F.  He has been Master of the Masonic lodge for many years, and has filled all the chairs in lodge No. 196 of the I.O.O.F.

+Cyrus H. Kirk married Kate Shepherd, and his four children are: Estella, James W., Anna C. and Mary L. Estella is the wife of Warren Cowen, whom she married January 22, 1890. John J. married Emma Lynn, by whom he has had three children: Irena, Gertrude and John W.   Ralph W. married Maggie E. Davis. His children are: Willis D., Ross L. and Hazen.

TOOK OWN LIFE
Jim Fields, Old Time Resident, Found Dead Yesterday Morning.

Our little city was visited by a tragedy yesterday morning when Jim Fields, an old-time resident, was found hanging to a tree in his back yard with life extinct.

He got up about 6 o'clock as usual and went out to look at his garden. In a short time after, his wife went out to call him to breakfast and found him dead. He had sat down on a box, tied a rope over a limb in an apple tree and then around his neck, pushed the box from under him and choked to death. His wife at once called help and took him down, but it was too late.

James W. Fields was born in Clinton county, Ohio, 61 years ago. The Fields family came to Harveyville in 1877. Jim grew up here where most of his life was spent except about 10 years spent in Colorado.  While there, he was injured in an accident, a large rock striking him on the head while he was engaged in road work. As a result of this, he was stricken with paralysis a short time later and has been an invalid ever since. It was only with much difficulty that he could get around, and he had not been down town for nearly a year. He was brought back to Alma after his stroke in 1912 and has lived here since. He bore his affliction with much patience and was always cheerful when his friends called.

He leaves his wife, who has cared for him so faithfully all these years, and his daughter Lucille of Emporia, besides his mother and all his brothers and sisters.

Funeral services will probably be held Saturday afternoon.
  SELL FIELDS, born 02 January 1866, Harveyville, Kansas, and died 30 December 1925, Kingsville, Texas
 
Alma Signal, January 07, 1926

Sell Fields, who died at his home in Kingsville, Texas, December 30, 1925, was born at Harveyville, Kansas, January 02, 1866, and came with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Fields, to Alma in 1877, where he lived until 1910, when he went to Kingsville, Texas where he has since made his home.

Soon after going to Texas, Sell secured a position with the Gulf State Railway Company as a bridge carpenter and after a few years was made boss and put in charge of the bridge gang and while engaged in this work in 1923, a bridge he was working on collapsed, and as he fell with the bridge, his leg was pinned under some heavy timber in a pool of stagnant water, where he was held for several hours before being released; the limb was broken and badly crushed; infection in the leg was soon discovered; he remained in the hospital and was getting along nicely when he contracted a severe case of Grip, this sapped his strength but he rallied and was through on the road to recovery, when erysipelas set in and he gradually grew weaker and weaker for weeks; then his mother, Mrs. Martha Fields, and his sister, Miss Alta Fields, of Manhattan, went to Kingsville and remained with him for sometime -- returning home about three weeks ago, when it was again thought that he was out of danger, but soon after his mother and sister left, he again contracted the Grip maladies, he was called to his reward.

Sell Fields was a good natured, generous, big hearted fellow and no man would go farther or quicker to help a friend, and the old time friends of the family sympathize with this good mother, brothers and sisters in the loss of a son and brother.

Funeral services were held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J.B. Fields, Sunday afternoon at 2:30, in charge of Rev. D.E. Jones, the Congregational minister, and the remains were laid to rest in the city cemetery.

Out of town relatives who attended the funeral were: Mrs. Martha Fields, Miss Alta Fields, Manhattan; Mr. and Mrs. Ted Fields, Rossville; Mrs. Eva Semelser, and Mrs. Josie Baker, Topeka.

Joe Woods, an old time friend of Sell's, accompanied the body from Kingsville, Texas, to Alma, and remained for the funeral services.
