OBITUARY #2

Aylette Davault Dead
The rather sudden death of Aylette Davault transpiring in Boise City, Idaho, on Monday, December 16, cast a deep shad- over this community when the news reached here Monday of this week.
Aylette and family were living at Boise. On Tuesday, the 10th, he rode horseback 40 miles in a severe storm to Gooding. That night he was taken sick with a severe pain in the head, which developed into meningitis. He was removed to the hospital at Boise, but nothing could be done to save him.
His funeral occurred Tuesday the 17th, at Boise, being conducted by the Masons and Odd Fellows. In the Masonic order Aylette was a 32nd degree.
Mrs. Lella, his wife, their baby boy and Preston Hatchett were the only near relatives in attendance.
How sad, such a splendid young man in the vigor of life and pushing forward in worldly wealth and happiness. New Florence can not help feeling his death as a calamity as he was one of us, born and raised here, married his wife here. To Lella, New Florence extends its deepest sympathy.

OBITUARY #3

AYLETTE DeVAULT DEAD

Boise, Idaho, Dec. 15, 1907
Dear Friends: -- Tuesday night at 7 p. m., Aylett reached our camp at Gooding, Idaho, After riding in a strong wind for seven hours with a terrible pain all the while in one of his ears. He started from Bellevue to Gooding, sixty miles, at ten o'clock, feeling pretty good, but by noon his head was hurting badly. We soon got him relieved and he slept Tuesday and Wednesday nights. We had hopes he would improve so that we could get him on the train for Boise. Up to 12 o'clock Friday night he was rational, and then lapsed into unconsciousness. Saturday night we got him to Boise, and placed him in the Sisters Hospital, still hoping for improvement, but the disease worked inwardly, on the brain. The doctors called it brain fever, meningitis. It is two clock p. m. now, and he can live only a few hours. I fear Lella will worry herself sick, as she is just getting over a bad cold. Let us hear from you soon. Very sincerely,
A. P. Hatchett.

The above letter was written to H. DeVault and pertains to his son Aylette, who was well known here. W. DeVault received a telegram Sunday saying that he could not live and another Wednesday telling of his death. This sad news is a shock not only to his relatives but to the many who were his friends. Coming here from Missouri about eight years ago he with his brother Will engaged in sheep raising for some time. A few years ago he moved to Idaho, where he again embarked in the sheep business, and it is presumed that the worry and strain of the care of his flocks caused his death.
Words must seem a mockery to the bereaved ones yet the sympathy of the entire community, is extended to them in their sorrow.
His genial, pleasing personality and uprightness of character endeared Aylette to all with whom he came in contact. He was about thirty-two years of age, and leaves a wife and one child, his father and mother Mr. and Mrs. DeVault, two sisters Misses Emma and Lizzie and a brother Will with many sincere friends to mourn his untimely death.

DAVAULT-HATCHETT WEDDING

A Very Elegant Affair at the Methodist Church Thursday Morning

When new voyagers set sail under the canopy of Hope with favoring winds, upon the matrimonial sea, friends, tried and true, stand upon the shore and give earnest prayer for their success and welfare; and so the Leader this bright October day bids Mr. and Mrs. A. F. Davault felicitations.
In the Methodist church Thursday morning at 10 o'clock Aylett French Davault and Miss Lella Hatchett were united in marriage by Rev. J. L. Weatherford.
The prettily decorated church was filled with invited friends and relatives. There was all the beauty and solemnity of a church wedding. Rev. Weatherford's ceremony was impressive and included the ring service. The organ's soft music added to the dignity of the occasion.
As the wedding party awaited at the door Miss Alma Reily sang "Oh Promise Me." As Mrs. Julia Pfaff, of Jonesburg played Mendelshon's wedding march the party entered, led by the minister, followed by John Knox and Bruce Davault, Miss Emma Davault and Miss Nettie Goddin, R. S. McCall and the groom, Miss Beatrice Hatchett and the bride. During the service Mrs. Pfaff played in low strains "Annie Laurie."
The bride was attired in a brown tailor-made traveling suit; the groom wearing the conventional black.
Miss Lella is one of the most charming young women we know; handsome, intelligent, self-reliant, a favorite in society and church circles. She possesses that seldom heard of grace, common sense. Aylett lives in Nebraska and is engaged in sheep raising, though he is a home boy raised in this community. He is a young man in every way worthy to be a good woman's husband.
They left on the west-bound train for Grand Island, Neb., where they will reside this winter.

Mrs. Leila Davault and little boy of Idaho arrived on the early train Monday morning to visit her mother Mrs. Hatchett and other relatives.

Four years after Aylett died, Lella married Judson E. Woodring. I do not think they were married very long. In 1920 Lella and Aylett, Jr. were living in Boise, Ada County, Idaho while Judson was living in Nampa, Canyon County, Idaho with his father, daughter and her son. He listed his marital status as divorced. In 1930 Lella and Aylette were living in Palo Alto, Santa Clara Co., California. In that census she listed her marital status as divorced.

Emily Louise Cardwell Nunnelly in letter to Catherine Cook; Mar 5 2001;
Lela Hatchett was the second daughter of Archibald Hatchet & Louisa Scott from St. Charles Co. (MO). Her half-brother was Thomas Merrill Hatchet, only child of Archibald Hatchet & his 1st wife and the grandfather of Emily Louise Cardwell Nunnelly. Lela & Aylette left MO on a late train immediately after their wedding reception for Idaho (should be NE -cac). They lived in Boise but had a sheep ranch & were homesteading. Lela, French and a woman helper spent a summer on the homestead. Emily Lou has box of letters that Louisa Scott Hatchett received from her children about 1907-08. Lela resided in Bridgeport Conn. in 1952 in an apt. in son, French's home.

The prettily decorated church was filled with invited friends and relatives. There was all the beauty and solemnity of a church wedding. Rev. Weatherford's ceremony was impressive and included the ring service. The organ's soft music added to the dignity of the occasion.
As the wedding party awaited at the door Miss Alma Reily sang "Oh Promise Me." As Mrs. Julia Pfaff, of Jonesburg played Mendelshon's wedding march the party entered, led by the minister, followed by John Knox and Bruce Davault, Miss Emma Davault and Miss Nettie Goddin, R. S. McCall and the groom, Miss Beatrice Hatchett and the bride. During the service Mrs. Pfaff played in low strains "Annie Laurie."
The bride was attired in a brown tailor-made traveling suit; the groom wearing the conventional black.
Miss Lella is one of the most charming young women we know; handsome, intelligent, self-reliant, a favorite in society and church circles. She possesses that seldom heard of grace, common sense. Aylett lives in Nebraska and is engaged in sheep raising, though he is a home boy raised in this community. He is a young man in every way worthy to be a good woman's husband.
They left on the west-bound train for Grand Island, Neb., where they will reside this winter.
She was educated between 1891 and 1892 Howard-Payne College.7

Miss Emma!

Leads in the Vote For the Week.

ONLY FOUR DAYS MORE.

BALLOTS ARE POURING IN BY THE HUNDRED EVERY DAY.

Vote For Your Favorite.

When it rains it pours. When the boys vote the ballots roll in. The week just closed has been one of the greatest in the history of the Contest. Ballots have been coming by the hundreds through the mails and by individuals and the nearer the end the faster they come in. The present outlook indicates an enormous vote between this and the close Tuesday night. Up to Wednesday night Miss Emma Davault takes the lead by a small vote, while Miss Bunnie Benson is an extremly close second, with Miss Minnie Bast in third place. Miss Murtle Wright receives a handsome vote and passes Miss Jennie Baker, while Miss Hattie McCuin is within a few votes of taking fifth place from Miss Baker. The vote has been materially increased along the line and some wonderful changes can be made before the polls close next Tuesday night.
The closing part of the contest is proving so great that we ask all parties voting to label their packages with the number of votes so the counting may be expedited. As Judges for counting the ballots, Messrs Louis Phillips, S P Stewart and J C Dickison have agreed to act. These gentlemen will, we think, give satisfaction as they are in no wise interested, and neither have cast a ballot. They will take the ballots in charge and announce the official vote as soon after the polls close as possible.
Voters and friends of the young ladies must positively remember that the polls close Tuesday night at 9 o'clock, by our office clock. We give the list of contestants in full and next week will give the official votes.

Pallbearer were R. C. Bassett, C. E. Moberg, John Hunt, John Ducker, Merle Hughes and Fred Wolff.
The following obituary was prepared by Mrs. R. C. Bassett, at the request of Mrs. Harpole prior to her death:
Emma Isabelle DeVault, daughter of Henry and Caroline DeVault was born in New Florence, Missouri, May 20, 1874. In 1901 with her parents she moved to Nebraska, locating at Bayard. On March 17, 1915 she was united in marriage to Charles H. Harpole, also a pioneer of Bayard, where he was engaged in the merchatile business. They were the parents on one son, George. Mr. Harpole died December 11, 1941, and in 1943 Mrs. Harpole and George moved to Scottsbluff, where she was supervisor of the sewing and housekeeping department of the West Nebraska Hospital for 2 1/2 years, when she was forced to retire because of ill health.
In early childhood the subject of this sketch united with the Methodist Church, of which she remained a loyal and devout member until her death. Some years ago she was the recipient of the honorary 50-year Membership Pin which the church presents to those who have maintained membership fifty or more years. During the active period of her life Mrs. Harpole served her church faithfully and efficiently as President of the Epworth League, Superintendent of the Primary Department of the Sunday School, President of the Ladies Aid Society, and ever responded to the call of duty for her church and her community. She was also active in the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society and the Woman'sClub.
When death came she was a member of the First Methodist Church in Scottsbluff, and as long as her health permitted, she was a faithful attendant at its services and also of the Woman's Societry of Christian Service. Mrs Harpole was a devoted homemaker, a loving wife and mother, a loyal friend and a dedicated Christian.
Survivors include her only son, George, two grandchildren, George Jr. and Susan of Minatare; three nieces, Miss Dorothy DeVault of Scottsbluff, Mrs, C. E. Moberg of Bayard and Mrs. K. C. Tishoff of Denver two nephews, Lynn DeVault of Livingston Montana and French DeVault of Connecticut.
"Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord. Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors and their works do follow them."
Note From Bible of Emma Isabelle (DeVault) Harpole:

Emma I. DeVault and Charles H. Harpole were married March 17th, 1915.

OBITUARY #1
C. H. HARPOLE PASSES AWAY EARLY TODAY

Funeral Services To Be Held At Federated Church On Sunday Afternoon

Charles Henry Harpole was born in Boonville, Indiana December 15, 1863. He passed away at his home in Bayard early Thursday morning December 11.
Mr. Harpole moved with his parents from Boonville, Indiana to Independence, Kansas at the age of 16 years, where they resided a short time, then moving to Southwestern Missouri where he remained with his parents until he was of age, helping his father develop a new farm. He came to Nebraska at the age of 26 years and has been a continual resident of this state since, having lived at Naponee, Holdrege, Ravenna, Alliance and Brideport prior to his coming to Bayard in 1900. Being one of the earliest residents of Bayard and having initiative and marked gift for getting things organized he set up in business and became an outstanding individual in the community and church life. His activities included leadership in the town board, school board, Red Cross, grand jury service, cemetery association in its initial plotting, and development through the years. From his early membership in the Methodist church in 1911 he served actively, until failing health, on the trustee board, where he remained as a senior member until his death.
He was a man of strong convictions and steadfast faith in the right, even when the right seemed unpopular. He was one of those pioneer men who was sturdy in character and stalwart and upright in his business dealings with his fellowmen. They knew where he stood and what he stood for.
For several years Mr. Harpole had been in failing health and the last year was spent more or less in bed. His good wife cared for him painstakingly and prolonged his life in peace and patience.
His father and mother had long since passed on. He had four brothers and four sisters all of whom have passed on save only Morris Harpole, a brother living in Opolis, Kansas. Mr. Charles Harpole had married Elnette Mingus in 1893, she having passed away in 1914. He was united in marriage to Miss Emma Devault in 1915 and she survives him with a son, George, living in Bayard. A foster son whom Mr. Harpole had taken at five years of age to raise, Montgomery Fullerton, also survives, besides other relatives and many friends.
His dying prayer was God's protection upon his family who survive.
The body will lie in state at the home Sunday morning from 10:00 a. m. until the service at the Federated church at 2:00 p. m. The body will not be reviewed at the church services.

OBITUARY #2

Relatives and friends at this place will regret to hear of the death of Charles Harpole, of Bayard, Nebraska, on December 11th, at his home in that city after an illness of some months.

Mrs. Harpole, before her marriage, was Miss Emma Davault, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Henry Davault of this place and grew to young womanhood in New Florence. Funeral services were held at the Bayard Methodist Church Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, burial at that place.

Medora Emma "Dora" Jones was born on 29 January 1850 in Jonesburg, Montgomery Co., Missouri.8 She was born in June 1850 in Jonesburg, Montgomery Co., Missouri.1,2 She was born on 29 January 1853 in Jonesburg, Montgomery Co., Missouri.9 She and Abraham "Abram or Abe" Davault were married on 14 July 1868 in Montgomery Co., Missouri.1,10 She died on 12 August 1938, at age 88, in Saint Louis, Saint Louis Co., Missouri.9 She died on 13 August 1938, at age 88, in Saint Louis, Saint Louis Co., Missouri.2,8,9 She was buried in Jonesburg Cemetery, Jonesburg, Montgomery Co., Missouri.11
Medora Emma "Dora" Jones had reference number 318. She was a Professor of music (1870); teacher - music (1880); manager - rooming home (1910); for several years Dora was in charge of the Department of Music in Central College in Lexington, Lafayette Co., Missouri.3,4,6 She was enumerated on the census in Montgomery County, Missouri (1850, 1860); Lafayette County, Missouri (1870); Audrain County, Missouri (1880); Montgomery County, Missouri (1900); Saint Louis County, Missouri (1910, 1930.) Note: There is a confusion as to the mother of Medora (Jones) Davault. Abraham's obituary/biography lists Medora's mother's name as Catherine. Another source has it as Katherine. The DAR application filed by her daughter, Anna Theresa Davault, lists her grandparents as Thomas Jones and Juliet A. Camp. (See notes for Anna Theresa Davault. ) This is almost certainly correct. The 1850 and 1860 Census records list Juliet A. Jones as the wife of Thomas Jones and mother of Medora Jones.

JULIET DAVAULT PFAFF DIED LAST SUNDAY
Juliet Pfaff, daughter of Medora and Abraham Davault, was born in Jonesburg June 12, 1870, where she spent most of her early life and where she grew up to young womanhood.
On June 12, 1895, she was united in marriage to Justus M. Pfaff of St. Louis and moved to St. Louis to make their home. To this union one son, Justus, was born on July 4, 1909. Mrs. Pfaff joined the Cabanne Methodist Church, then later the West Presbyterian Church where she was a member at the time of her death.
Mrs. Pfaff passed away Sunday in St. Louis at 2 p.m. May 5, after a lingering illness. Her parents, her sister, Anna Theresa Davault, and her husband, Justus Pfaff, have preceded her in death.

Her remains were brought to the Harding Funeral Home Sunday, and last rites were held in her honor Monday afternoon, May 6, with the Rev. Howard D. Hardeman, pastor of the Jonesburg Methodist Church officiating.
Her body was laid to rest beside other members of her family in the Jonesburg Cemetery. Mrs. Pfaff was a charter member of the Hardin Camp Chapter D.A.R.

Passing Of Annie Therese Davault
Annie Therese Davault, youngest daughter of Abraham and Medora Jones Davault, was born and reared to young womanhood in Jonesburg, Missouri.
She received her education there and at Howard Payne College, Fayette, and was also a graduate of the Perry School of Expression in St. Louis, and studied this art in other places, including the East. From childhood she was most talented in this pleasing art and was an adept at dialect impersonation, particularly that of the Negro race, in which she could not be surpassed.
She was very generous with her talent and gave freely of it for her church and patriotic organizations. She often came to her old home town to assist in a financial way. Annie was a friendly person of genial nature and was always a popular and highly esteemed Jonesburg daughter. Her visits from time to time brought a world of pleasure to a host of kindred and friends.
For years she traveled as a lyceum and Chataqua attraction, spending much time in the far West.
Following her father's death the family moved to St. Louis which was their place of residence for many years and there, after several years illness, she passed away last Sunday evening, July 8th.
Father, mother, brother-in-law, J. M. Pfaff, and other near relatives had preceeded her in death. She is survived by an only sister, Mrs. Juliet Pfaff; a nephew, Justus Pfaff; two aunts; Mrs.. J. D. Ebert and Miss Maudie Jones; a number of cousins, other kindred and friends.
She became a member of the Methodist Church in early youth. She was a good daughter, sister, relative and friend and her memory will ever be cherished by all those who knew and loved her. Her wonderful talent brought entertainment and pleasure to hundreds.
Last rites in her honor were held at the Harding Mortuary in Jonesburg on Tuesday afternoon July 5th with Rev. Don Jacobs officiating. He stressed that health of the soul was far more important than health of the body. Rev. Frank Getty sang three numbers with Mrs. F. J. Boehmer as the accompanist. The songs were "Does Jesus Care", "Somebody Knows", and "Close To Thee". Casket bearers were old friends - Will Van Studdiford, Fleet Palmer, Stirling Graham, Charles Carr, Frank Boehmer and William Dothage. Interment was in the Jonesburg Cemetery beside other loved ones.

Note: Annie gave readings on the Chautauqua circuit. I have a copy of her Chautauqua brochure taken some years ago from the Redpath Chautauqua Collection, U. of IA Libraries Special Collection Dept., Iowa City; (Internet): .. I believe the newspapers to be misleading for nowadays a recital is usually considered to be a music program. Annie Theresa did share the bill with musicians, probably in order to rest her voice as well as offer a diversified program.- Cathy Cook.

BIOGRAPHY - by Catherine (Crabtree) Cook added to framed sampler in possession of Margaret Crabtree, 2004:
Margaret Ellen "Ellen" (McClearey) Davault
Margaret Ellen Davault went by the name, Ellen. She was the daughter of Thomas and Barbara See McClearey and was born in Russell County, Virginia, on the 11th day of November 1841. She was the fourth of five children: Catherine, Charles, Thomas, Margaret and Josepheus. In 1842 her parents sold their farm and moved from Virginia to Montgomery County, Missouri to be with Barbara's parents. The McClearys settled near where Montgomery City now stands.
Ellen attended boarding school at Shamrock, Missouri just north of Williamsburg. In later years, she told her granddaughter, Martha Ellen Davault that she liked composition class best and once wrote about a cricket chirping on the hearth. Newland DeVault had a small memory book of Ellen's beginning about 1860, two to three years before her marriage and containing the following poem Ellen had written and signed:
"My Album is a garden plot,
Where all my friends may sow,
Where thorns and thistles flourish not
But love alone will grow."

On January 8, 1863 she was married to Frederick Davault and to this union six children were born: Emmett C. of Tulsa, Oklahoma, Edwin L. of Riverside, California, Bruce T. of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Wm. F. of Williamsburg, Missouri., Chas. A. of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and a little daughter, Mary Emma, who died at the age of 3 years. Ellen took her niece Ella McClearey into her home and after Ella's death raised one of Ella's three children, May Marmaduke.
A strong bond apparently existed between Ellen and her granddaughter, Martha Ellen Davault, who told of her grandmother sharing stories and confidences. Ellen gave her 1855 sampler to Martha Ellen who in turn gave it to her granddaughter, Margaret Elizabeth Crabtree.
From the time of their marriage, Fred and Ellen lived in New Florence, Montgomery County, Missouri on a farm about three blocks outside town. They also had a house in town in which their fiftieth wedding celebration took place on Wednesday, January 08, 1913. Over a hundred guests were present on that occasion.
Ellen was in very poor health for her last several years. She became nearly helpless and about September 1921, she and her husband moved to their son, William F. Davault's home near Williamsburg, Callaway County, Missouri where she died February 20, 1922. Funeral services were held at the New Florence Methodist Episcopal Church South, which Fred & Ellen had joined in 1863. The Tuesday afternoon service was conducted by her former pastor Rev. W. C. Russell of Bellflower assisted by the local pastor and the body laid to rest in New Florence cemetery. In her obituary, Ellen was described as an "everyday Christian." At her funeral, Rev. Russell spoke touchingly of her life and of the smile that was always on her face.

No one was more willing to aid the suffering, cheer the despondent, sustain the weak than this noble lady.
The floral offerings were profuse.
Mrs. Davault lived here from the time of her marriage to Fred Davault and was loved by all with whom she came in contact.

GOLDEN WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENT - New Florence Leader

Golden Wedding
A kind providence occasionally, not often, permits the blessing of husband and wife celebrating a half century of wedded life. Such came to Mr. and Mrs. Fred Davault when with near 100 guests assembled in their pleasant home in Davault addition Wednesday, Jan. 8th, 1913, they celebrated the golden wedding in gladness, feasting and thankfulness.
January 8, 1863 was rather a rainy day, in the farm residence near Montgomery City upon which now lives Solon Brandt, Mr. Davault and Miss Ellen McCleary were united for weal or woe under the ministration of Rev. George Smith. Jos McCleary and Miss Sharp, Charlie See and another Miss Sharp, waited upon the couple during the ceremony. One hundred and fifty guests were present to partake in the joy of that occasion. Mr. and Mrs. Davault settled on a part of his father's farm just at the southern edge of town and have been part and parcel of this community this half century. Five boys have added to the noise of their home, now all men and occupying responsible places in the commercial affairs of a busy world. Emmett, Edward and Bruce engaged in business in Tulsa, Oklahoma were not able to attend the celebration Wednesday evening.
Wednesday evening, January 8th 1913, the guests assembled with Mr. and Mrs. Davault between six and seven o'clock. A few minutes before dinner was announced, Mr. Davault attired in the conventional black with white tie and Mrs. Davault arrayed in Chiffon over white silk, entered the parlor and took their place under a large bell swinging from an arch of Holly. Rev. W. G. Rigg to the surprise of Mr. and Mrs. Davault rendered the following humorous ceremony.
Dearly Beloved, we are gathered in the presence of these witnesses because of the hasty and inconsiderate conduct of these two persons present half a century ago. And I abjure you both if you know any reason why you should continue to follow the same line of life, that you forever hold your peace thereabout. And I further urge that if any one present knows any reason why these two persons shall continue to live as man and wife that they keep it secret on penalty of single blessedness the remainder of their respective lives.
And I require and charge you both as you shall stand before the awful throne of judgement, if either knows anything about the other that you tell it and that right quickly.
Frederick, do you promise this present that you will allow this woman to support you and in manly courage treat her half as well as you do the washerwoman and on an equal footing with the cook? And will you faithfully stick to your promise for fully a week?
Ellen, do you promise to continue to boss this man as you have done for the past threescore years, and under all circumstances take his part especially when it's something that he likes? Will you keep him as thin and as timid as we now see him by casting pleasant smiles and glances to the grocery boy and other stranger as may chance to pass this way?
As much as Frederick and Ellen have both refused our serious ministrations in their behalf, I now pronounce them incorrigibles together, and turn them over to the tender mercies of their many friends.
Mr. and Mrs. Davault led the way to the tastily decorated dining room where dinner was served, including everything from turkey and oysters down to ice cream and cake.
Mr. and Mrs. Davault never seemed happier and the fifty years passed showed no signs upon their activity and entertaining qualities. May their married life continue unbroken for the years to come and the joy and happiness of the home with children and children's children, increase as the years go by.
Mr. Alf Davault was the only person present in 1863 to witness the first marriage that witnessed this one of 1913.
The out of town guests included Harvey Marmaduke and wife, Carbondale, Ill., William Davault and wife, Williamsburg, C. A. Davault and wife, Farber; J. B. DeVault and wife, Martinsburg; Chas A. Bast and wife, Mexico, George Bast Mexico.
Many nice presents were left with Mr. and Mrs. Davault as tokens of love and friendship.

NEWSPAPER ANNOUNCEMENT

PIONEERS CELEBRATE THEIR GOLDEN WEDDING
MR. AND MRS. FRED DAVAULT
NEW FLORENCE, Mo., Jan. 8. -- Mr. and Mrs. Fred Davault, who celebrated their golden wedding at their home in New Florence to-day, are among the pioneer settlers of Montgomery County.
Mr. Davault's father, Peter Daavult [Davault] came to Missouri at an early day from Tennessee and settled on the Boonslick road, one mile south of New Florence, now the line of the Missouri State highway.
He erected a tavern which became famous as the stopping place of the early-day traveler and shippers who drove their cattle to St. Louis.
He also purchased several thousand acres of Government land and was a large slave owner.
Many of the old slaves refused to leave the old homestead when liberated and remained with the members of the family until their death.
Mrs. Davault was a daughter of Thomas McCleary, who came from Virginia and settled near Montgomery City.
The wedding anniversary was observed by and old-time dinner.

C. A. Davault, Farber, MO Forum, 1913; from Newland DeVault, HENRY DEWALD 1733-1817 YORK COUNTY PENNSYLVANIA:;; pages 218-219:
Their Golden Wedding
An event that will linger long in the memory of the writer, and in the memory of many endeared to him by the ties of relationship and friendship, was the occasion of the fiftieth wedding anniversary of his parents, F. Davault and wife, at their home in New Florence, the evening of Wednesday, January the eighth, 1913.
For some time they had been planning that if spared to live they would celebrate the occasion. About one hundred guests were present to enjoy the occasion, many of whom were relatives of the family. A feature of the occasion was a mock ceremony, performed by Rev. Riggs, a Methodist minister. The couple entered the parlor and stood under a large arch of evergreens, from which a bell was suspended. At the conclusion of the mirth and provoking ceremony they were greeted by a shower of rice and following congratulations they led the way to the dining room where a sumptuous repast had been prepared. Four large turkeys had been sacrificed for the occasion, and there was an abundance of other provisions, fruits and ice cream. In the days long ago when people used to get married, say fifty years ago, the dinner was always an important feature of the occasion, and was never sparingly served. The faithful old black mammy was disgraced had the roasts run short. Perhaps our parents had this in mind in planning their anniversary celebration.
The gifts began to arrive early in the day and a table prepared for their reception was loaded with an array of goldenware, both ornamental and useful.. Among other things presented by friends was an elegant golden-oak dining table and buffet of similar design. Numerous letters of congratulations were received from distant friends. A congratulatory message was also received from Speaker Champ Clark expressing his good wishes. Three ten dollar pieces were received from the three boys at Tulsa, Okla., who were unable to be present.
Mr. Davault was born 83 years ago on the Old Homestead which is located on the old Boonlick road, made famous by Daniel Boone, the pioneer scout and hunter, one mile south of the present site of New Florence. It is also 4 ½ miles east of Danville, the historic county seat of Montgomery County, and is along the line of the newly formed State Highway. This large and commodious house with it’s spacious halls and labyrinth of rooms still stands. In the early days it was known as a Tavern. It was built by his father, Peter Davault, who came to Missouri from Tennessee in 1827 and was the favorite stopping place for the western travelers before the time of railroads. For many years the feeders from the west, who drove their herds to the St. Louis market, stopped in relay at this place. The elder Davault here acquired possession of two thousand acres of land by preemption and purchase, part woodland, part prairie. Mrs. Davault, whose maiden name was McCleary, was also a member of one of the pioneer families of Montgomery County. Her father came from Virginia and made settlement near Montgomery City. Both families were large slave owners, many refusing to leave the old homesteads when the Proclamation Of Freedom was issued by President Lincoln.
The celebration of fifty years journey along the roadway of life is a remarkable event and out from the hearts of those near and dear to them comes a flow of gratitude and thankfulness that Time has been so merciful and Providence so kind. It brings joy and happiness to the heart, especially so if it is your father and your mother.

Note: A large Mantle clock was one of Frederick's and Ellen's wedding gifts, January 8, 1863. It is a Seth Thomas one-day clock, upright rectangular shape with reverse painted flower design on glass door. It was in use for years in Catherine (Davault) Niedergerke's home; now in possession of Mary Dee (Niedergerke) Cochran and still working.

ON FILE
"Place it on file," the salesman said,
"Give it a place in the office book,
Keep good account of the morning trade,
Draw up the papers that all may look;
Place it on file where all may see,
Know you that wield a responsible pen
If all the world reads dishonesty,
What would our customers think of us then.
Great is the labor intrusted to you
Balance the great work, keep it all true.

Place it on file, the act you now do,
Each simple deed hath given its place,
Heed well the life minutes, honor then too,
Feign not the records of life to efface,
Place it on file e'en unto the thought -
Much is the import unspoken words bear,
Be honest to self, let every word caught
Be tokens of good, well chronicled there:
Over your life work good review,
Balance the great work, keep it all true."
