Yuma County Pioneer Photographs:
William P. and Elizabeth (Anthony) Vanausdall, 1N 45W
WILLIAM
William P. Vansdall and Elizabeth Anthony married on
24 Nov 1857 in Indiana.
In 1870 Butler County, Ohio,
William Vanausdall is 36,
Elizabeth Vanausdall 30,
Julia A. Vanausdall
11, and
John D. Vanausdall
3.
In 1880 Butler County, Ohio,
Porter Van Ausdall is farming, 46, born in Ohio,
Elizabeth Van Ausdall
40 Wife, and
Davy Van Ausdall
13 Son.
William proved up a quarter in 15, 1N 45W, also in 1896.
February 17, 1900 "Mrs. Elizabeth Vanausdall,
wife of W. P. Vanausdall, died Thursday morning at her home
west of Wray after a long illness during which she
suffered very greatly. A complication of diseases baffled
the skill of physicians and friends. She was sixty years of age,
a native of Ohio, and leaves a loving husband to mourn her loss.
Her children, a son and daughter, have gone before and wait her
coming. She will be buried today in the Wray cemetery,
She was a Christian woman and welcomed the change that would
relieve her from her suffering and unite her with her Master and
loved ones. She selected the song for her funeral services which says:
"1 would not live always; 1 ask not to stay Where storm after storm
rises dark o'er the way; The few lurid mornings that dawn on us
here Are enough for life’s woes;
full enough for its cheer.
"
There are four burial plots between Mrs. Vanausdall # 6 and the #1 plot, so her son John David Vanausdall could very well be buried there.
November 1900 " John Alexander, and family, brother-in-law of
Robert Tippin, arrived from Iowa Thursday with a car of goods and
will make their home here. He will occupy the Vanausdall farm west
of town for the present. We give them a hearty welcome."
September 1901 Wray "W. P. Vanausdell returned from Athol, Kansas.
He says there is no place like home."
June 1902 "W. D. VanAusdale of Wray was up to pay his taxes
Tuesday."
June 1902 "W. P. Vannusdahl, who was here looking after business matters,
left for his home at Athol, Kansas, last Monday."
March 1905 Wray Rattler "M. P. VanAusdell of Athol, Kansas,
writes a few days ago asking if we received a dollar on
subscription from him. Of course we did. Thanks."
In 1905 Smith County, William is 71, living with the John and Ida Alder family.
July 1908 "W. P. Van Ausdall in a letter to Dr. E. J. Bales,
tells about a cyclone which struck Athol, Kansas where he lives and did a lot of damage.
It took part of the roof off the house where he lives, tore up the barn and sheds and
destroyed a good buggy for him. His old friends here are sorry to hear of his misfortune."

William P. Vanansdall 76 is living alone, widowed.
