 Amos J. Dye, 1847-1905 Judge and Ohio State Legislator Buried in Masons Cemetery, Block 17, Lot 3, Grave 3 (Grave marker photo courtesy of the Pioneers’ Cemetery Association) Amos J. Dye was born April 2, 1847, in Marietta, Ohio. He was the son of Amos J. Dye, Sr., and Maria Taylor. In 1860, the Dyes owned a large and valuable tobacco farm.
On 18 January 1864, at the age of eighteen, Amos enlisted in the Union army and was assigned to Company H, 77th Ohio Volunteer Infantry. Just a few weeks thereafter, he married Marinda Jane McCowan on February 11, 1864. On January 1, 1865, he transferred to Company D, 77th Ohio Volunteer Infantry. He was discharged March 8, 1866 in Brownsville, Texas, with the rank of private. Possibly his unit went there after the Civil War as part of the Reconstruction effort. Amos Dye and Marinda had a son, Herbert, in 1867, and a daughter, Ida, in 1868. He was admitted to the Ohio bar as a lawyer in 1877. By 1880, the Dyes were living in Huntington, West Virginia, where Amos was practicing law. Marinda died of stomach cancer in May, 1894, in Cincinnati, Ohio, where she had been active in a fraternal society called the Knights and Ladies of Honor. Amos Dye himself was by then a Mason and a Republican state legislator. Soon, he became an attorney for the Ohio State Dairy and Food Department. Dye married Ida Selma Schaetzle, a divorcee, on December 12, 1895. A son named Amos was born in 1897 and a daughter, Selma, in 1901. Another son, Stelman, seems to have died in infancy. In 1896, Amos Dye was accused of accepting a $5,000 bribe from a representative of the Paskola Company on condition that the state would not prosecute a case against the company. Dye vigorously denied taking a bribe and countersued. Apparently he did not lose his state position since he continued to handle cases. Tiring of Ohio winters, Dye purchased the Rumney house on Grand Avenue in 1902 and thereafter, the Dyes spent their winters in Phoenix. The Dye family was living a mile and a half north of Grand Avenue when Amos died on December 30, 1905, of cardiac insufficiency. He was buried in the Masons Cemetery, Block 17, Lot 3, Grave 3. Dye’s widow Ida was left to raise their two surviving children alone. She filed for a widow’s pension on February 17, 1906, but her application was rejected on the grounds that Dye’s cause of death was not the result of his military service. She did not remain alone for long, though. Sometime in 1908, she married Peter William De Jong. Ida lived until 1954. © 2024 by Donna L. Carr. Last revised 22 December 2024.

 Angeline “Angie” Piper, 1876-1899 Schoolteacher Buried in IOOF Cemetery, Block 21, Lot 4, SW corner. There is no grave marker. Angeline Piper was born in 1876 in Kansas to Ray Piper and Sarah née Fortney. Angie’s parents had been married in Bourbon, Kansas, on October 22, 1874. Angie had a younger brother John, who was born in 1878, but he died in 1881. Nearly two years later, Angie’s father also died, leaving her mother to raise Angie and her sister Raye, born after Mr. Piper’s death. Since Angie’s mother did not remarry, perhaps she had sufficient means to raise two children on her own.
In 1887, a rabid dog bit Angie, her mother, and sister. According to one news report, only a “mad stone” (a bezoar stone found in the digestive tract of some animals) would save them from contracting rabies. One was found in Chetopa, Kansas, and all must have gone well, as they all survived. Angie began attending Oswego College for Young Ladies in 1893 and obtained a teaching certificate. At some point, she joined the Royal Neighbors Society. The Society, established in 1895, was a progressive women’s fraternal benefit association and an auxiliary to Modern Woodmen of America. It focused on assisting women and children in need and offering life insurance for women--an option never before available to women. Today, Royal Neighbor is the largest women-led life insurer in the country. In April 1898, Angie became quite sick while teaching in Fort Scott, Kansas, and her mother was sent for. Under her mother’s care, Angie recovered and, in November, her mother left for Arizona to visit relatives. Angie remained in Fort Scott at the home of an uncle, but later joined her mother in Arizona. Angie went to Arizona primarily to recuperate. Unfortunately, she developed typhoid fever and died December 30, 1899. Although she was initially buried in Rosedale Cemetery, her mother later had her remains moved to the IOOF Cemetery when Angie’s Royal Neighbors Society insurance policy paid out. © 2020 by Patricia Gault.

(Generic image created using Bing AI) Descendants of Baldomedo Peralta believe that he was born in Rio De San Pedro, Cuevas de Batuco, Sonora, Mexico. He may have been the son of a Pedro Peralta. His birth year seems to have been somewhere between 1849 and 1854, but verifiable records do not begin until he arrived in Phoenix in 1880.
Apparently, Peralta and Guadalupe Baldenegro had been keeping company since at least 1879. They were on their way by wagon train from Superior to Phoenix in August, 1880, when their first child, Rosario, was born at a wagon stop called La Poste (now Apache Junction). Upon reaching Phoenix, the couple was married on September 19, 1880, in a civil ceremony—possibly because there was no Catholic priest available. Thereafter, the Peraltas had children at regular intervals. Descendants think there were twelve, although only six lived to adulthood. It is not known for sure where they were all born, although the Peraltas seem to have resided in Phoenix continuously and not migrated back and forth between Mexico and Arizona. A two-year-old daughter, Louisa, died in 1900 and was buried in Rosedale Cemetery. Her older sister Guadalupe, aged 9, died in 1902 and was also buried in Rosedale. Despite the vagueness of his origins, Baldomedo Peralta seems to have had some education. Apparently regarded as "white," he registered to vote in 1884, 1890, 1892, 1894 and 1900. He was active in a Latino mutual-aid society and was also a member of Phoenix’s volunteer fire brigade. On Christmas Eve, 1903, the Peralta family was enjoying a festive meal at their home when a kerosene lamp exploded, setting fire to the room. Although the family ran outside into the yard, Baldomedo and Guadalupe quickly realized that one of the children was missing. Peralta reentered the burning house, located the child, and passed him through an open window to the family outside. He then attempted to save some of the family’s belongings. When he emerged from the house, his hair and clothing were on fire. Although he stanched the blood flowing from a vein in his neck and walked to a doctor to be bandaged, his burns turned out to be more severe than was first thought. He was admitted to Sisters’ Hospital, where he died on December 27th. He was buried in the Catholic section of Loosley Cemetery. After Baldomedo’s death, the oldest Peralta son, Porfirio, became the head of the family. He too would eventually join the fire brigade. Porfirio and his family remained in Phoenix until 1921, when they followed some of the other Peralta siblings to California. © 2024 by Donna L. Carr. Last revised 20 December 2024.

Cole, 1839-1907 Union Veteran Buried in Rosedale Cemetery (Grave marker photo courtesy of the Pioneers’ Cemetery Association) Alexander D. Cole was born May 17, 1839, in Moosup, Connecticut, to Caleb Cole and Hannah Crandall. The Coles were fairly prosperous farmers.
In October 1862, Cole enlisted in Company A, 12th Rhode Island Infantry, for a period of nine months. His regiment took part in the Battle of Fredericksburg that December. After that, it was on guard duty in Kentucky and Ohio. Cole reenlisted at the end of his initial hitch and served until July 29, 1865. On January 16, 1868, Alexander Cole wed Ella Augusta Lord in Boston, Massachusetts. The young couple was living in Southbridge, Massachusetts, when their first child, Fannie, was born on November 20, 1869. Alexander was employed in a woolen mill. Although little Fannie thrived, the Coles’ next three children—Charles, Henry and Gertrude—did not live long enough to see their first birthdays. It wasn’t until October 28, 1876, that Ella gave birth to a son, George Elbert, who would grow to adulthood. One more child, Nellie, was born May 26, 1882. Over the years, Alexander and Ella seem to have parted ways, as he is listed as divorced on the federal census of 1900; he gave his occupation as "landlord." He and his two daughters had moved to Phoenix around 1895, possibly because Fannie was suffering from a malady which caused her joints to ossify, limiting her mobility (may have been something like rheumatoid or osteoarthritis). At first, Fannie was active in the local Presbyterian church and the Women’s Christian Temperance Union (W.T.C.U.). In time, however, she was confined to bed, unable to bend her arms and legs. On September 17, 1901, her doctor tried a surgical intervention to "break" her joints, but Fannie died of shock following the operation. After a funeral conducted by Rev. McAfee of the Presbyterian Church, she was buried in Rosedale Cemetery. While living in Phoenix, Alexander Cole joined the John Wren Owen G.A.R. post. In March, 1907, he applied for an invalid pension and received Certificate #969811. He passed away on October 5, 1907, of cardiac dilation, and was buried next to his daughter Fannie in Rosedale. Nothing further is known of Cole’s younger daughter, Nellie; likely she married. Cole’s son George Elbert lived in Phoenix for a brief time at least. In 1910, his nine-year-old daughter Ella died of tuberculosis while residing at 716 West Madison. She, too, was buried in Rosedale, probably in the Cole family plot. © 2024 by Donna L. Carr.

John “Sailor Jack” Twentyman, 1824-1901 An English Seaman in Arizona Buried in Rosedale Cemetery, Block 12, Grave 6 (Stock image courtesy of MicroSoft Office Professional 2010 clipart) John Twentyman was born England in September, 1823. In his youth, he had been a sailor, landing in California just as the Gold Rush was beginning. Thereafter, he engaged in mining, ranching and driving a stagecoach. He was said to have discovered the Sailor Jack mine in Oregon.
Around 1876 he came to Phoenix, where he was employed by ranchers such as W. W. Cook, the Alkire brothers, and Jack Miller. During the 1890s, he appears to have moved to Prescott for a couple of years, for he registered to vote there. In early November, 1900, Sailor Jack, then aged 76, was assaulted and robbed by two gunmen who held up Goddard’s Station on the Black Canyon road. This incident seems to have weighed upon his mind and he decided to move into a room in Phoenix. Jack was said to have been a kind-hearted soul; although he had no known relatives, he had many friends and acquaintances with whom to pass the time of day. With advancing age came ill health. Despondent, Sailor Jack committed suicide on December 27, 1901. While at the Anheuser Saloon in Phoenix, he slipped out back for a moment to ingest a lethal dose of strychnine. He then reentered the saloon and sat calmly until a single convulsion signaled his demise. According to the coroner, a bottle of strychnine was found in his pocket but no money, although he was known to have had some the day before. Possibly he had given it away.

John Fraser Cameron, 1878-1905 Veteran of the Spanish American War Buried in Porter Cemetery, exact location unknown (Image courtesy of the Veterans Administration) John Fraser Cameron, born January 1878 in Memphis, Tennessee, is believed to have been the son of Col. John Fraser Cameron, Sr. and his wife Mary A. Myers. Since John Sr. and his wife died in 1882 and 1883 respectively, it is likely that their six orphaned children were raised by relatives. Three of the Cameron daughters—Mary Belle, Chloe Ann, and Nancy Louise--made advantageous marriages.
John F. Cameron was working as a telephone lineman when he enlisted in the U.S. Army at Galveston on April 28, 1898. It was just a few days after President McKinley had declared war on Spain. Cameron was regarded as a very good soldier. He rose to the rank of sergeant in Company C, 30th U. S. Infantry and might have made a career in the military, had he not contracted tuberculosis. He was at Fort Bayard, New Mexico, when he was discharged on May 16, 1905, as unfit for duty. Fort Bayard was a decommissioned frontier fort which was being used as a tuberculosis sanitarium for Army personnel. A week later, Cameron was awarded a disability pension. Cameron then traveled to Arizona to join his older brother Allen, who was living in Sayer. However, he died in Wickenburg, Arizona, on December 26, 1905, and was buried in Porter Cemetery. Without a marker, the exact location of Cameron’s grave is not known. © 2021 by Donna L. Carr. Last revised 29 November 2021.

Taylor, about 1850-1897 Immigrant from Canada Buried in Porter Cemetery, Block 22, Space H (Photo of grave marker courtesy of Pioneers’ Cemetery Association, Inc.) Libbie (maiden name unknown) was born in Canada about 1850. At some point, she came to the United States and married Arthur W. Taylor, born around 1845 in New York state. There is no evidence that the two ever had any children.
In 1880, Libbie and her husband were living in Denver, Arapaho County, Colorado, where Arthur was a molder at the Colorado Iron Works. The Taylors were in Phoenix by 1894, but thereafter it appears that Libbie and her husband separated, with Arthur moving to Los Angeles. Though estranged, they nevertheless did not divorce. Apparently Libbie had enough money to be self-sufficient, as she bought several lots in the Churchill addition for $3,000, intending to use them as rental properties. Libbie developed a case of pneumonia and died December 22, 1897, at her home at 27 South Fourth Avenue in Phoenix. Her funeral was postponed until after Christmas as friends sought to reach her husband in California by telegraph. She was buried in Loosley Cemetery, Block 5, Lot 11. One obituary gave her full name as Libbie H. Y. Taylor, possibly indicating she had been previously married. Shortly after Libbie’s funeral, her husband returned to Phoenix to take over her affairs. Mr. Taylor had his late wife’s remains moved to Porter Cemetery and a large marble monument erected. The plot Libbie is buried in has plenty of room for other burials, so perhaps he was planning to be buried next to her. Since Libbie had died intestate, a special administrator was appointed to handle her estate. Notice was given and several creditors came forward: James M. Creighton was one of them. Keystone Pharmacy submitted an unpaid bill for quinine tablets and laudanum, and there were also bills for nursing and final expenses. After all of Libbie’s debts had been settled, her husband A. W. Taylor inherited $4,666 in cash and real estate. Arthur was last known to be residing in Los Angeles, California, with a family named Riley and working as a teamster in 1900. © 2020 by Patricia Gault. Last revised 14 March 2020.

List Mosier, 1843-1897 Farmer’s Wife Buried in Loosley Cemetery, Block 3, Lot 3, north Mary Ann List was born August 15, 1843, in Pennsylvania. She was the oldest of seven children belonging to David J. List and Ursula Newell.
The Lists had moved to Lee County, Iowa, by 1858, when Mary Ann married Benedict Mosier at the tender age of fifteen. Soon thereafter, the young couple moved to Tyler Township, Hickory County, Missouri, where Mary Ann bore eleven children between 1860 and 1875. Six survived to adulthood. The Mosiers were farmers and, apparently, quite successful ones. Mary Ann’s parents moved to Missouri at about the same time. In the summer of 1861, Benedict Mosier enlisted in Company C, 8th Missouri State Militia Cavalry, serving in Captain William C. Human’s company. The mission of the regiment was to prevent Confederate forces from establishing a foothold in southwestern Missouri. The soldiers went on numerous scouting patrols and engaged in a few skirmishes. Since Mosier’s duties kept him fairly close to home, he was able to make periodic visits to his family. Mary Ann’s father, David List, served in the same regiment although he was more than forty years old at the time. He died in Missouri in 1868, leaving his wife and five children. Although the Mosiers had a productive farm in Missouri, they moved to Arizona around 1884, as did Mary Ann’s widowed mother and several of her siblings. Possibly the Mosiers’ son Sydney was ill and required a warm, dry climate. He died on 30 May 1886 and was buried in City Loosley Cemetery. Mary Ann undoubtedly lived the life of a farmer’s wife. In addition to the usual household chores, she occasionally worked in the fields and forked hay for the cattle. Late in life, Mary Ann developed heart problems. In April 1897, she resigned her position as a Sunday School teacher because of ill health. While driving home on 14 December 1897, she apparently suffered a stroke. A neighbor moving cattle noticed that the horse and buggy had stopped in the road and came to her aid, but attempts to revive Mary Ann failed. She too was buried in City Loosley Cemetery. Following Mary’s death, Benedict Mosier was much chagrined to learn that Arizona was a community property state and that Mary’s property would be split between him and their children. It had never occurred to him that his late wife owned anything, much less half of the marital assets. Mary Ann’s mother, Ursula Newell List, outlived her, dying in Glendale, Arizona, in 1906. Benedict died on 4 October 1908 and was buried in the family plot in City Loosley. © 2020 Donna L. Carr. Last revised 11 April 2020.

Margarita Wall Chretin, 1882-1904 A Life Cut Short Buried in Rosedale Cemetery, North Section (Grave marker photo courtesy of the Pioneers’ Cemetery Association, Inc.) Margarita Wall was born February 14, 1882, most likely in Arizona. She was the first-born daughter of Fred Wall and Refugio Rebecca Ramirez. Fred Wall is thought to have been an immigrant from Ireland and sometime miner. A sister, Matilda, was born about four years later, after which her parents parted. Their mother remarried several times thereafter.
On February 15, 1904, Margarita (or Maggie, as she was known), wed Carlos Robledo Chretin in Phoenix, Arizona. Chretin’s unusual surname was due to the fact that his father, Jean-Marie Chretin, was a Frenchman who had married a Mexican woman. Maggie was probably suffering from tuberculosis already at the time of her marriage. She gave birth to a male infant on December 2, 1904, and died only six days later, on December 8. She was buried in Rosedale Cemetery, with a three-piece marble monument marking her grave. Maggie’s newborn son was originally named Fred John Chretin. Upon his mother’s death, he was given to his maternal grandmother, Refugio Rebecca Ramirez, who was already nursing an eight-month-old daughter named Ruby O’Leary. Baby Fred’s life was most likely saved because of this steady supply of breastmilk, which also imparted some degree of immunity to childhood illnesses. Fred and Ruby grew up together, and Fred always regarded her as his sister, even though she was actually his half-aunt. Being raised in his grandmother’s household, Fred adopted the surname of her then husband, Daniel O’Leary. Margaret Chretin’s widower, Carlos Chretin, eventually remarried and had several more children with his second wife, Marta Hernandez. Both the Chretins and the O’Learys moved to Los Angeles around 1918. © 2024 by Donna L. Carr. Last revised 15 November 2024.

Tallman Jacob Trask, 1852-1894 Pioneer Grocer Trask is buried in Porter Cemetery, Block 6, Space 6 (Stock image courtesy of Pinterest) Tallman Jacob Trask was born 1852 in Vassalboro, Maine, one of eleven children born to William Chase Trask and his second wife, Sophia Winslow. By 1860, the Trask family had moved to Concord, Illinois.
When he was 17, Tallman, or T.J. as he was known, went to work for Abel Gum as a clerk in Gum’s dry goods store. T.J. roomed with the Gum family while he learned the ins-and-outs of the mercantile trade. Around 1876, young Trask traveled west to Pueblo, Colorado, where he became the head clerk in the grocery store of John D. Miller. It was there that he met Laura E. Cooper, whom he married in July of 1877. The couple had two children born between 1878 and 1879, but both died in infancy and were buried in the Odd Fellows section of the Pueblo Pioneer Cemetery. In 1879, T.J. and Laura moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, to start a new store with Lyman Putney, a business man from Lawrence, Kansas. The store, which specialized in wholesale groceries and exotic fruits from California, was located in downtown Albuquerque on Railroad Avenue, opposite the train depot. T.J. and Laura had a tumultuous relationship, with Laura spending much of her time with her family in Pueblo and Kansas. In the spring of 1884, T.J. filed for divorce on the grounds of desertion. It was granted in October of 1884. In December of 1884, he married Lizzie Strother of Ohio, thought by some to have been “an adventuress." T.J. dissolved his business interests with his partner Lyman Putney and moved to Phoenix, Arizona, where he opened a store with his new brother-in-law, Emory Kays. Still later, in 1892, T.J. opened another store with Charles Kessler and T.J.’s brother Alonzo. Located on Washington between modern-day Central Ave and 1st Avenue in Phoenix, the Trask-Kessler wholesale grocery soon became one of the largest grocery stores in town. As he prospered, T.J. took on many civic duties, becoming president of the Arizona Industrial Exposition Association and territorial fair. His most notable exhibits were a pagoda made from grains grown on his farm, and a display of hanging tea cups and saucers from his wholesale grocery store that spelled “Trask-Kessler." He also served as president of the Immigration Union, vice president of the Business Chamber of Commerce in Phoenix, and was on the board of the Phoenix and Prescott Toll Road Company. T.J. died on December 8, 1894, from an intestinal ailment which he had fought for eight months. He was laid to rest in Porter cemetery. His headstone is of an unusual Moorish design and describes him as an “upright businessman." © 2017 by Valleri Wilson. Last revised 22 December 2017.
