Biography*

Samuel Mealey... was born on the 1st of May, 1782, in Carlisle, Pa., and was one of seven children. His early years were spent on a farm in West Virginia which his father had obtained with money received for his services in the Revolution. He received liberal educational advantages and was graduated from William and Mary's College where he was a schoolmate of Gen. Scott. He then studied medicine in Philadelphia and embarked in the practice of his chosen profession in Pennsylvania. During the war of 1812, in which he served in the One Hundred Twenty-second Pennsylvania Regiment, he became one of the principal surgeons on the northern frontier. Like his father he was a faithful soldier and participated in the battle of Lundy's Lane, Eric and Black Rock. The year 1840 witnessed his arrival in the Territory of Iowa. He made a location in Duck Creek Township, Washington County; where he purchased five thousand acres of land. He was worth some $40,000- a great amount in that day. In 1852 he sold his land to his son and removed to Brighton, where his death occured February 17, 1875.

In Pennsylvania, Mr. Mealey was united in marriage with Miss Margaret Blaine, whose father was Ephraim Blaine, a native of Scotland and an officer in the British Army before he emigrated to America. He was taken prisoner at the battle of Long Island at the same time that Lawrence M. Mealy, tha paternal grandfather of our subject, was captured. Mrs. Mealey was a great- aunt of the illustrious James G. Blaine. Her death also occurred in Brighton at the age of seventy-nine years.

Excerpt from: Early Medical History of Washington County, Iowa:

The Village of Lexington ---Samuel Mealey, so far as there is any record, was the first medical man present. His location is not known. In about 10 years he moved to Brighton.

Samuel Mealey was born in Harrisville, Virginia, son of Lawrence Mealey, May 3 probably 1780. He was a classmate in William and Mary's College of Winfield Scott; graduated from Jefferson Medical College, was a surgeon in the War of 1812, associated with General Winfield Scott, whose wounds he dressed after the Battle of Queenstown Heights near Niagra. He often told this story to his grandchildren asking them to always remember he had cared for General Scott.

He came to Dutch Creek Township in 1846 -- exact location is not known. It seems he moved to Brighton. He educated Two sons for the practice. William located in Des Moines, gave promise of great usefulness but died in 1864. Thomas was apparently associated with his father in Brighton during the Cholera epidemic of 1853. The elder Mrs. Mealey died. One accord tells us that Samuel Mealey left Brighton, going to Keokuk, where he practiced or when he returned, I do not know. I do know he died in Brighton in his 92 year, Feb. 1870 and is buried in the Brighton Cemetery.³

From the Ritchie County Historical Society
March/April 1975 Newsletter Vol. III No.II

LETTER FROM GEN. THOMAS M. HARRIS
(From TRANSALLEGHENY HISTORICAL MAGAZINE, VOL. I NO. 2)
Submitted by Dean Six

Dear Sir,

Replying to your letter of the 16 ins., I will say that I was born in the
then County of Wood, State of Virginia, on the 17 of June, 1813, and within
600 yards of where I now write. I write by a ruler to keep me in line and
do not see a word that I write, but with the eye of my mind. My
grandfather, Lawrence Mealey, was from Ireland and moved from Rockbridge
Co., Va., to this place with his wife and eight children in 1803. They
came on horses and on foot bringing with them their cattle, sheep, &c., and
settled within a mile of the present site of Harrisville, his nearest
neighbor being at the present site of Pennsboro, 8 miles distant. As other
settlers came on it took the name of Mealey's Settlement. This settlement
in 1823, from which my recollection is very distinct, occupied an area of
about 9 square miles and contained about 20 families. Most of these were
from the County of Harrison, Va., 4 or 5 families were from Western
Pennsylvania, 3 or 4 from the Eastern Virginia, and 2 from England. This
was the first settlement made in the bounds of the present County of
Ritchie, and the first school was taught by Thomas Mealey about the year
1818. George H. Rogers taught the next term of three months and this was
the first school that I attended. Ayers taught another term of three
months on the following summer. After those we had 3 months winter term
every year. The school was taught in a hewn log house about 18X20 feet,
that had been built and was used for a church, and was lighted in the usual
style of the schoolhouses of that day by pasting oiled paper over a large
crack between the logs that had been cut out for that purpose. The seats
were benches made of slabs by boring holes and driving into them legs.
These were so high from the floor that the feet of the smaller children
could not reach it. Webster's spelling book was the only book that was
used for several of the first terms that were taught. After that the
English reader was introduced, and then the English Reader and Pike's
Arithmetic. This was succeeded by Walsh's Arithmetic. The teachers were
scarcely competent to teach these elementary branches, and I was 18 years
old before I knew a competent instructor. This was a Scotchman by the name
of Thos. Cumming. I only enjoyed the advantage of his instruction for 3
months. I commenced to teach myself when 18 years old and very poorly
qualified. It was not until about 1825 that schools began to be opened in
other neighborhoods of the now territory of Ritchie County and all under
the same disadvantageous circumstances that I have described. I am,

Very respectfully yours,

T.M. Harris

Note*

Grace Harris Gould: Great-uncle Thomas was an M.D., and practiced medicine at Harrisville, Va. (W. Va.). I was grown when he died in 1911, and I think he was 96 years old. He took an active part in the war between the States and was on the Union side. At the end of the war he was made a Major General by brevet. He had served as a Brigadier General during the war. When Lincoln was assassinated the army chose a military commission to try those that were supposed to have conspired with Booth. Uncle Thomas was a member of the commission. (When I graduated from High School he gave me a book he had written concerning the trial and what led to the conspiracy.) He would have been court-martialed had he refused to serve on the commission.⁷

WWI Draft*

5 Jun 1917

Manchester, Hartford Co., Connecticut, George Smith Harris, age 25, registered for the draft on 5 June 1917 at Hartford, Connecticut. Although the form indicates that his permanent address is Box 650 Hudson St., Manchester, Connecticut that is scratched off and a notation is made on the 2nd page that says "Change to Greenbrier, Tenn." However, the correcting entry is also scratched off and (on another line) the notation is made: "Ottawa, Kansas c/o F.H. Steward & Co." Although it's not clear what exactly was going on... his parents were living Ottawa Kansas and he did eventually go to Greenbrier, Tennesee - so the various place notations make general sense.

George gives his birth date as June 15, 1891 (although other records indicate it wa June 25, 1891) and says he was born in Ellenboro, West Virginia. He is working as an Office manager for C.K. Burr & Co. in Manchester. He indicates that he has a wife and 1 child who are dependent on him.

George is described as tall and slender with blue eyes and dark brown hair. He is not bald and has no physical deformities.⁵
