Nov 1999 e-mail from Craig Gansell: My great grandfather, Will or Bill as he was known. He was known to be as good a ventriloquist as George was mathematician. He also had a good rapport with his dogs as did my grandfather, Louis. (I guess my grandmother used to chide him with "you're just like old Bill Gansell, half dog!") Anyway, old Bill apparently wasn't nearly as good at math as George, because in 1888 he claimed to be 27, getting married to my 16 yr old great grandmother, Mary Meracle, and 9 years later in 1897 he said he was 37 when he married 18 year old Effie Swisher.

HIST 1854-1900: THE HISTORY OF UMATILLA COUNTY, by William Parsons, 1900, pg 467: (I have put in paragraphs for ease in following moving, etc - was 2 paragraphs in book-2nd paragraph was marriage)

"ALBERT F. MICHAEL --The career of our subject presents one round of industry and activity that bespeak an energy & wisdom far above the ordinary, & places him among the leading business men in this part of the west; coupled with this he has a reputation for uprightness that his every day life demonstrates is fully merited has been instrumental in placing him in the center of the large circle of admiring friends.
He first saw the light in the Keystone state (PA), Columbia Co on Feb 8, 1854, where his father, Andrew Michael, was an operator of canal boats on two of the principal canals of the state. He remained with his father until 1877, acquiring a good education and such a practical training as afterward made him the successful man that he has been.
In 1880 he came to Mitchell Co KS, bought a farm of 160 acres, where he lived for 2 yrs, then selling out went to Norton Co, the same state, & took up a homestead, staying upon it for 2 yrs. During that time he was occupied with contract work on the grade of B & M RR in Nebraska, & later was superintendant of construction on the UP in KS. In the winter of 1882 he went to Nebraska, & took contract work on the Missouri Pacific, & the next year found him operating on the Oregon Short Line in Idaho.
In the fall of 1883 he first came to Umatilla Co as operator on construction of the OR & NRR, & the spring following in Portland & was solicited to take full charge of the grading of the Northern Pacific to Kalama. After this was successfully accomplished he went to WA & pursued his vocation on the NP in that state. After this he came to Pendleton, put in a switch from the main line of OR & N to Byers' Mill.
April 1 of 1885, he moved to Pilot Rock, & engaged in farming & stock raising, where he was very successful. It was 1891 that he bought the place where he now resides, 227 acres. In addition to this, he owns half a section adjacent to Pilot Rock, which is all first class wheat land is all under cultivation.
On Feb 11, 1875, he was married to Miss Mary E Reynolds, whose father was a gen.merchant in Sullivan Co PA, where their marriage occurred. To this union the following children have been born: Lillie May bn May 20 1877; Ellery E., bn Nov 12 1879; Ella R, bn June 1 1882; Charles A, bn Dec 28 1886; Sadie E, bn Apr 17 1887; Bessie, bn Aug 17 1888; John W, bn Oct 12 1891; Roy M, bn Mar 17 1893; Nora B, bn Aug 31 1894; Josie M, bn Apr 9 1896; Ivy M, bn Nov 26 1897."

1862-1962 HIST: "In The Footsteps of the Pioneers, 1862-1962," by Will M Kidwell, Ed.D., Pg 242: "During this decade the butcher shop was located on the NE side of East Birch Creek on Main Street, chich the city maps call "Willow." The butcher shop was operated by Fred Bailey..had an ice-house in back with double walls filled with sawdust. Ice was cut in winter and stored there during summer months. One of his employees was Charlie Kidwell, an emigrant from MO who later married Nora Michaels. Bailey sold the shop to Frank Michaels. Then later Elvin Pollock purchased it."
Pg 308: "Mr and Mrs Albert Frank Michael came to Umatilla Co in fall of 1883. He was a construction operator for OR & NR RR, but it was not until 1885 that they moved to Pilot Rock and entered into farming and livestock raising. In 1891 he bought 227 acres on Little McKay Creek where they settled, and the younger members of the family were born on this place. He expanded the ranch to a total of 860 acres. In addition to this, he owned a half section of land adjacent to Pilot Rock.
He was born in 1854 in Berwick PA. He received a good eduction in this community. In 1880 he came west to Kansas and farmed, but he finally turned to railroad construction and kept moving west until he arrived in Oregon.
He md Miss Mary E Reynolds of PA in 1875. They reared a family consisting of: Lilli May, Ellery, Ella, Eva, Charles, Sadie, Bessie, Frank, John, Roy, Nora, Josephine and Iva. Later his son-in-law Elvin Pollock joined him in the business. This shop faced Main Street next to East Birch Creek on the spot where the present post office stands (1980s)."
Pg 361: "Shipp homestead on lower McKay Creek-Frank Michael, who ran the butcher shop in Pilot Rock, bought the Shipp place...sold it to son Charlie, who sold out... 1948."

MICHAEL: means "who is like God". Other spellings: Michels, Michel, Michl

1906-08 HISTORY: Oregon,Grant-John Day, family moved back to Pilot Rock in about 1908.

1908 HISTORY: Oregon,Umatilla-outside Pilot Rock: the family moved to one of Grace's grandparent's [probably the Pearsons, as they lived a ways out of Pilot Rock], began school in a little red school house about a mile from home... didn't have warm clothes... I was the youngest and the smallest, so was hard for me to keep up."

c1909-17 HISTORY: Oregon,Umatilla-Pilot Rock..."father bought a 3-bedroom house - felt rich. Had kerosene lamps, wood stove... not very good light; hard to pump the water outside... tea kettle... singing on the wood stove made the nicest music... when feet too cold, could open up the oven door and toast our feet. Father bought a freight business...a quarter of a mile from the train depot to the stores, but that seemed a long way."

c1913 HISTORY: "...1 school, 1-9th grades...good enough grades, specially in spelling...I was sent to Pendleton to a spelling contest (6th grade)... My dad bought a piano, & I took lessons for awhile; had to walk a mile each Saturday."

c1914 HISTORY-Article in Walla Walla WA Union Bulletin [c1987]: "Early Campfire Girl - Thought we had an old-timer Girl Scout lined up as the girls were celebrating their 75th anniversay, but it turned out to be the "other" girls organization, Camp Fire Girls.
We speak of Grace Smith, 305 Ash St, who has lived in the valley for nearly 40 yrs but who was reared in Pilot Rock, south of Pendleton. She recalled those early days and the coming of Camp Fire Girls to Pilot Rock.
'There was little for youngsters to do in the little town of Pilot Rock,' she says. 'The town has grown and sprawled all over now but in those days, it was pretty small. So, we were pretty excited when the Camp Fire Girls was started there.' This was 1914 and Smith was 12.
'We hadn't heard of the Camp Fire Girls then and the Boy Scouts were unheard of, too, I believe. I think it must have been one of the very first clubs org in town.' Belonging to the Camp Fire Girls and the activities proved of long recall, although she is now 85, Smith says. She also notes that the uniform was a prized possession for many years until she loaned it and the borrower failed to return it."

c1915 HISTORY: Oregon, Umatilla Co-Lehman Hot Springs "...for the summer, had a little store... a nice summer; we could hike, swim, really different from anything we had [done] before. We moved back near Pilot Rock, about 7 miles out of town."

1917 HISTORY: Oregon,Umatilla Co-Pendleton: "...lived with grandparents, Frank Michael... went to Catholic Sister High School [there was no high school in Pilot Rock then] - took a business course, oil painting & piano, never dated, Grandmother very strict... WWar I troops came thru town, train track went by our school, so someone would watch at the door, & we would all run for the windows & wave. We would feel so patriotic. Grandmother, my aunt, & I walked to the depot, which was at least 11 blocks, sang "Johnny Get Your Guns" & "Go There," waved our hankies, was so exciting."

c1918 HISTORY: OR,Umatilla Co-Pilot Rock, Pendleton: Summer at home, back to Pendleton for 2nd year of high school... 1st flu epidemic broke out,"Asian Flu." High school closed, back to Pilot Rock - 1st time anyone heard of flu. Everyone sick, a lot died. All in bed at home but dad, had 1 doctor, 1 nurse who went house to house, wasn't an antibiotic then. Back to Pilot Rock so her brothers could go to school, back to ranch in the spring..."

c1919 HISTORY: Oregon,Umatilla-Pilot Rock: "met the Smith family at another little red school house... went to Pendleton with dad, met Vern on the street, went to circus together. Pilot Rock fixed up a high school in the top floor of the best brick building... stayed with Grandmother Wegner that winter... very close to this Grandmother - told many stories of their life.. Vern & Leo went to school there, had to ride horseback at least 7 miles. The high school had a get acquainted dance, Smith boys were there, from then on, Vern was my date. By the middle of the year, we were engaged."

1919-1921 HISTORY: "...our engagement lasted 3 yrs. We planned twice to get married- even had a house & hauled winter wood from the mountains the last time, but not enough money."

1922 MARRIAGE: Oregon,Umatilla Co-Pendleton: Grace Michael married Edward Vern Smith on June 12, 1922 (20 yrs old) at the Parsonage in Pendleton.
"Vern's family moved to Hermiston, bought small acreage... next spring Vern went to Hermiston, rented an acreage next to his folks... were married in Pendleton at the Parsonage... not a fancy wedding, but it meant as much to me. We had planned & waited so long. My mother, Vern's sister Ninetta, another sister Peggie & his brother Claude was with us. Peggie had given me a piece of white organdy & I made my dress, had a grey silk going away dress made over from an old old dress... no car, so left for Hermiston on an old open car stage..."

1922-23 HISTORY: Oregon,Umatilla Co-Hermiston: "Vern's father came to Hermiston after us... at our 1st home. My brother called it a peanut ranch... Vern planted 3 bunches of peanuts. I never did see anything from them..."
...our first home: 3 small rooms & 3 in the basement... a kitchen up stairs was at one time a glassed in porch... windows were bare, sent to Montgomery Ward for yards of curtain material at 9 cents a yard... sure helped the kitchen... I always had a few pillows & pictures to make the rooms more homey. We lived there about a year."

1923 HISTORY-CHILD #1: OR,Umatilla Co-Pilot Rock: "..next spring, Vern got a job in a garage at Pilot Rock. Ever one knew all about ever one there, called all by first names... a friendly town."
"My folks moved bk to Pilot Rock, so when we left Hermiston, we moved in with them. I was expecting my first baby, who was born Aug 11, 1923, a baby girl, who we named June Bernice.
That fall we moved on a ranch to work...We stayed there a year, then back to Pilot Rock."

1924 HISTORY: "After we had just been married for 2 years, we found out he was diabetic..."

1923-33 HISTORY: "Vern decided to shear sheep with his brothers in law, so that was our life for about 9 years-shear sheep through the spring & work wherever he could through the rest of the year. It was always a struggle, but we seemed happy & didn't have too many worries.
Trips to Montana were nearest we ever had for a vacation, did see a lot of country & it always was nice... children always had a lot of fun... had an umbrella tent, camp stove, always quite comfortable... had to worry abt wood ticks & rattlesnakes with the children, but we got through it without anything serious... came back thru Yellowstone Park 1 yr, Glacier Park another..."

1933 HISTORY-CHILD #2: OR,Umatilla Co-Pilot Rock: "June & I always went to Montana in June with Vern, to shear, but the last yr I got pregnant & March 17, 1933, had a baby girl, Janice Mae. Ever one in Pilot Rock said she was the prettiest baby there.. she was a good baby, after 10 years it seemed so nice to have more family."

1934 HISTORY: WA-Spokane, then OR-Pendleton:"Vern started shearing sheep again & somewhere he picked up a typhoid bug. Ran a temperature for awhile...time to go to Montana, he thought he would get over soon. We got to Spokane, he got so sick, we had to put him in a clinic & that is where they found out it was typhoid... there a week, then back to Pendleton in an ambulance, in the hospital for 2 weeks, then home... with typhoid & diabetes, another struggle all summer... stayed with him in the hospital & took care of him.
Vern rented a little meat market.. it was such a hassle, after 2 yrs we moved to Milton Freewater & he worked in a meat market... salary $100 a mo: $25 on a car & $75 rent & whatever else besides paying on doctor bills... big change in our lives."

c1938 HISTORY: [1st yr high school] "June had a good voice, turned out for choir. Music teacher put her in accapella choir... went down to Penneys to look for material. Didn't have money that week but had 4 yards of red taffeta at 98 cents a yard layed away, until the next week. By that time I didn't have much time to get it done-didn't even have a pattern. I had made over so much of the girls & my clothes, I figured out a pattern & had it ready. Her teacher thought it so pretty, she had to model it at a style show in Home ec. I was told June was the best dressed girl in school. I was always thankful I was blessed to sew, as I never had to feel ashamed of my girls' clothes, even through our sickness & lack of money. I always canned fruit & vegetables, so we always had plenty to eat.
That summer, we moved 3 times before we finally got settled. Each time we moved a big old piano & range stove, which had to be plumbed each time & different stove pipe, not easy in those days."

They had a big kettle of chili beans, so went & ate with them, & that sure made a happy day for us... membership quite small, every one had 1-2 jobs...had a lot to learn & get used to, wasn't just a Sunday Church.
