Cyrus West FIELD1,2,3,4,5,6 was born on 30 November 1819 at Stockbridge, Berkshire, Massachusetts. He was baptized on 28 May 1820 at the Congregational Church, Stockbridge, Berkshire, Massachusetts. He married Mary Bryan STONE, daughter of Frederick Joseph STONE III and Grace FOWLER, on 2 December 1840 at the home of the bride’s grandparents, Guilford, New Haven, Connecticut, (not sure at which grandparents’ home; other sources say they were married in Haddam, CT.).7 He died on 12 July 1892 at Irvington, Westchester, New York, at age 72 of general old age, disease of heart and mal-nutrition.8,9 He was buried on 15 July 1892 at the Stockbridge Town Cemetery, Stockbridge, Berkshire, Massachusetts, with the funeral having been conducted the previous day at Ardsley Park, his summer home in Dobbs Ferry, New York.9,8,10 His estate was probated circa November 1892 at Greenburgh Township, Westchester, New York, and read to the family at Ardsley Park by his brother and executor, Rev. Henry M. Field.  He stated, " It was Cyrus Field’s desire to share equally what little now remains of his fortune among the families of his six children."  The "Yonker Herald" issue of 2 November 1892 was quoted as saying about Cyrus Field’s estate,  "shortly after his brother’s return from Europe, about 10 or 12 years ago, he estimated his income at $300,000 a year.  Recent years had seen his money dissipated like a fog bank, and now the bulk of the estate is the remaining monies of the heavy life insurance carried by Mr. Field, which is between $250,000 and $300,000.  Even this, if the suit now pending in the courts to establish Cyrus as a general partner instead of a special partner, in the wrecked firm of Field, Lindley and Company should success, [it] would be swept away."

Cyrus West FIELD was named for Cyrus Williams, president of the Housatonic Bank in Stockbridge, and for Dr. Stephen West, who had been his father’s predecessor for 60 years in the pastorate at Stockbridge, Massachusetts. At about age 2, he was so weak and frail that his little body had to be supported by a frame, in which he could roll around the room until his limbs could get strength enough to bear him.  But as he grew into boyhood and took up sports, the outdoor exercise gave him strength.  Although his frame was always slight, it became tough and wiry, capable of great effort and great endurance.11 He was not interested in attending college and left Stockbridge.

Between April 1835 and 1840 at 257 Broadway, New York, New York, New York, Cyrus West FIELD was employed by A.T. Stewart’s great dry good store, a job that his brother, David Dudley, found for him and where he learned the business trade, starting as an errand boy and working up to a clerk. He lived between April 1835 and 1840 at Murray Street, New York, New York, New York, paying $2.00 a week for board and lodging. Between March 1840 and May 1840 Cyrus West FIELD was the founder of his own first paper manufacturing business at Westfield, Hampden, Massachusetts. He was employed by E. Root and Company as a junior partner; this firm failed almost immediately in June 1840 at 85 Maiden Lane, New York, New York, New York. He lived between 2 December 1840 and 1842 at Bond Street, New York, New York, New York, boarding at the home of Mr. Mason. He lived between 1842 and 1852 at 87 East 17th Street, New York, New York, New York, where he rented a house.

He was the organizer of Cyrus W. Field and Company with his brother-in-law, Joseph F. Stone, as his partner.  This paper making enterprise earned him $250,000 between 1843 and 1853 at New York, New York, New York.12 He lived between 1852 and 1892 at 123 East 21st Street, New York, New York, New York, in a house he had built in Gramercy Park; there is a historical plaque for his house at One Lexington Avenue.  His nephew, Frederick Joseph Stone, lived in his household at this address from 1861 to 1876.13

In 1853 Cyrus West FIELD retired from his business; he and his wife  took a 6 month cruise to South America, returning in October of this year.  They went with Frederic E. Church, the artist. In 1854 Cyrus West FIELD was the founder of the New York, Newfoundland and London Telegraph Company, forming it with Peter Cooper, Moses Taylor, and Marshall Roberts, who each put in $20,000 and with Chandler White, who put in a lesser amount, but died the following year and was replaced by Wilson Hunt.  This money went fast and eventually those who had contributed $20,000 to begin with had put in $200,000 and Cyrus’ sum was even larger.14

He formed the Atlantic Telegraph Company, united himself with three other English gentlemen in 1856 at England. He was instrumental in the successful laying of a submarine cable to connect Cape Ray in Newfoundland and Cape Breton in Nova Scotia on opposite sides of the Gulf of St. Lawrence in July 1856. Between 5 August 1857 and 9 August 1857 Cyrus West FIELD was able to finance the first try of the laying of an Atlantic Telegraph cable.  It failed because after running out 360 miles of cable, it parted from the strain of applying the brakes and a large wave swell.  The United States government had provided the ship, "Niagara," and the English ship was the "Agamemmon."  Both ships had departed from Valentia at from the coast of Valentia, Kerry, Ireland.12,15

On 10 June 1858 Cyrus West FIELD tried a second attempt to lay the cable; this time the ships spliced their sections of cable together in mid-ocean and sailed in opposite directions, but after only 200 miles, the cable broke again.12 Between 28 July 1858 and 5 August 1858 Cyrus West FIELD was able to successfully find and splice the previous cable together in mid-ocean and again sail in opposite directions.  This third attempt worked, marking a milestone in world communications.  The "London Times" wrote of the event, "since the discovery of Columbus, nothing has been done in any degree comparable to the vast enlargement which has thus been given to the sphere of human activity."  But the cable went dead with a break 270 miles from Valentia on 1 September of that year, having transmitted only 400 messages, many of them weakly.  But in that brief time, the cable reduced the time for messages from two weeks by land telegraph and fast clipper ship, to a mere minute for every fifteen words of Morse Code.12

In 1859 Cyrus West FIELD received a honorary master of arts degree from Williams College, Williamstown, Berkshire, Massachusetts.6,16 He was a merchant with property valued at $50,000 in June 1860 at Yonkers, Westchester, New York. He and Mary Bryan STONE appeared on the census of 27 June 1860 at Yonkers, Westchester, New York.17 He was able to finance another laying of an Atlantic Telegraph cable.  The owners of the world’s largest ship, "The Great Eastern," were happy to accept payment for the ship only if the cable laying was successful in 1864.12 On 23 July 1865 Cyrus West FIELD again tried to lay 2,900 miles of cable.  This time from Valentia, Ireland to Newfoundland, but 600 miles from Newfoundland, the cable broke once more.  This cable was grappled and later recovered in 1866, giving the world two cables for sending messages across the Atlantic Ocean.12,18

He witnessed after again coming up with the funds,  the successful laying of an Atlantic Cable on 27 July 1866 at Heart’s Content, Newfoundland, Canada to Valentia Island, Ireland. He was the subject of resolutions of the United States Congress, each house passing theirs unanimously; these resolutions requested that a gold medal be struck to be presented to Mr. Field circa 1866.19 He was awarded the Grand Medal, the highest medal given by the French Exposition of that year in 1867.19

He lived between June 1869 and 1892 at between Irvington and Dobbs Ferry, Greenburgh Township, Westchester, New York, during summer seasons, where he owned 780 acres between South Broadway on the west to the Sprain Brook on the east. The estate was part of one town, two villages and four school districts.  It was named Ardsley Park after the English birthplace of his ancestor, John Field.  Here Cyrus built houses for each of his children as well as himself.  His home was a beautifully designed three story structure. The value per acre in 1884 was $583.  The modern address can be reached from South Broadway, turning up Osceola and taking a right turn onto Field Terrace.13

He was a promoter of a submarine telegraph cable linking the United States with Australia and Asia by way of Hawaii circa 1870.20 He was telegraphing with property worth $50,000 in July 1870 at Greenburgh Township, Westchester, New York.21 He and Mary Bryan STONE appeared, at their country residence,  on the census of 12 July 1870 at between Irvington and Dobbs Ferry, Greenburgh Township, Westchester, New York; they also appear on the New York City, New York County, New York census of 1870 in the 18th Ward.22,23 In 1875 Cyrus West FIELD received a honorary doctor of law degree; this year Cyrus also made broad proposals and gave money for the beautification of Williamstown and the Williams College campus from Williams College, Williamstown, Berkshire, Massachusetts.24,6

He was in  1877 able to advance funds to his son, Edward Morse Field, an inexperienced stockbroker, to start a commodity firm with his son’s brother-in-law, Daniel Lindley, who was an experienced stockbroker.  The firm was called Field & Lindley. Between between 1877 and October 1886 Cyrus West FIELD was the president of the New York Elevated Railroad Lines.  From its beginning, Cyrus fought for a uniform charge of five cents at all hours for passengers.  His efforts were realized with a victory on the morning of October 1, 1886.13 He was able to finance New York City’s first skyscraper, the Washington Building, into which his son’s firm, Field & Lindley, moved circa 1879 at New York, New York, New York.

He was the owner of two newspapers, "Evening Express" and "Mail", which were later merged to become the "Mail and Express" at New York, New York, New York. On 6 June 1881 Cyrus Field wrote in his diary, "I have invited President Garfield to come to Irvington for a visit and then to go to Williams College for commencement on July 6th."  But as President Garfield was leaving Washington he was shot by an assassin.  The tragedy called forth from Cyrus Field’s telegraph messages to friends in Europe and America: "If President Garfield should die from the wounds received on the 2nd, he would leave for his wife and children about $20,000.  I shall cheerfully subscribe $5,000, toward the sum to be raised.  If you or any of your friends would like to join, please telegraph me tomorrow for what amount I may put your name."  The subscriptions amounted to the sum of over $360,000.13

He was referenced in a land record when he purchased a large tract of acreage adjoining his property, which at that time extended into the Saw Mill River Valley.  It was Field’s intention to build small, but comfortable houses for working men and their families on this land and rent them at rates of $10 to $20 a month, including a small plot of ground.  The construction of the Croton Aqueduct delayed the project, which was never actually realized because of Field’s later financial losses in 1882 at Irvington, Westchester, New York.25

In 1883 Cyrus West FIELD was honored when he visited the Canadian Rockies as a guest of the Canadian Pacific Railroad and a peak was named Mt. Field after him.  This information came from the "Peaks of the Canadian Rockies" website. In 1884 Cyrus and his wife, left New York in the car "Railway Age" for a trip to the Pacific coast, covering in all about 11,500 miles.  At a telegraph station in the west, Cyrus Field handed the clerk a message for transmission.  But the clerk seemed more interested in his customer than in turning to his instrument to send the message. Finally after studying the man for a few minutes he asked, "Are you the original Cyrus?"13

He speculated heavily in the commodity market, especially in his son’s firm, Field, Lindley, Wiechers & Company, putting much of his personal wealth at risk in 1885. He was heavily invested in the commodity market and met financial disaster when the bottom fell out of this market on 24 June 1887. He lived in 1888 at between Irvington and Dobbs Ferry, Greenburgh Township, Westchester, New York, where he sold all but 21 acres and his house to Charles Henry Butler, who subdivided the property. He was given a loan by Pierpoint Morgan; the loan had been obtained by his son, Edward in January 1888.

He wrote a will on 22 January 1892 at Westchester County, New York. He wrote a codicil on 31 May 1892 at Westchester County, New York, which simply appointed Daniel Lord, Jr as co-executor to replace George De Forest Lord, who had died. Cyrus West FIELD and David Dudley FIELD Jr, brothers, were two of the persons portrayed in the painting, "The Projectors of the Atlantic Cable" by Daniel Huntington.  Others in the oil painting are: Peter Cooper, Chandler White, Marshall O. Roberts, Samuel F. B. Morse, Daniel Huntington, Moses Taylor and William G. Hunt.26

Edward Morse FIELD Sr46 was born on 4 July 1855 at New York, New York, New York, (alternative birth year of 1854).9,47,48,49,50 He married Clara Louise LINDLEY, daughter of Rev. Daniel LINDLEY and Lucy Virginia ALLEN, on 4 June 1877 at New York, New York, New York.51 He died on 17 February 1930 at State Hospital, Central Islip, Suffolk, New York, at age 74.9 He was buried on 22 October 1935 at the Stockbridge Town Cemetery, Stockbridge, Berkshire, Massachusetts.9,10

He and Submit DICKINSON II are direct 8th cousins, despite the fact that Edward is the grandson of Submit.  Their common ancestor is Edward Sherman and his wife, Anna Clare Pellette. He appeared as a son on the census of 27 June 1860 in the household of Cyrus West FIELD and Mary Bryan STONE at Yonkers, Westchester, New York.17 He was injured on his head by a horseback riding accident in 1866. He appeared as a son on the census of 12 July 1870 in the household of Cyrus West FIELD and Mary Bryan STONE at between Irvington and Dobbs Ferry, Greenburgh Township, Westchester, New York; they also appear on the New York City, New York County, New York census of 1870 in the 18th Ward.22,23 He and Daniel Allen LINDLEY were partners in starting a commodity firm together.  The firm was called Field & Lindley.  Daniel was an experienced stock broker, but Edward was not, but Edward had the financial backing of advance funds from his father, Cyrus Field in 1877. He was a merchant in June 1877.51 He lived at Ardsley Park, Dobbs Ferry, Westchester, New York, in a house built on the slope below his father’s home.  Edward’s house later burned, leaving only a summer cottage. He and Daniel Allen LINDLEY were still stockbrokers together in the firm Field & Lindley, but they moved the company into the Washington Building, New York’s first skyscraper, which was funded by his Edward’s father, Cyrus West Field circa 1879 at New York, New York, New York. He and Clara Louise LINDLEY were a communicant (although Clara’s middle name was given as "Lee") at Irvington Presbyterian Church, Irvington, Westchester, New York, on 1 July 1883.52 He followed his father, Cyrus West Field, by investing in the commodity market deeply and put his firm, now called Field, Lindley, Wiechers & Company at risk in 1885. On 24 June 1887 Edward Morse FIELD Sr. was not very resourceful and did not have the ingenuity to extricate himself if cornered in an indiscretion.  He followed his father, Cyrus, blindly into disaster when the bottom fell out of the commodity market on this date.  Edward borrowed heavily from his own firm and was in trouble.  There were also beginning signs of irrationality at this time. In January 1888 Edward Morse FIELD Sr. was able to get a loan for his father, Cyrus West Field, from Pierpoint Morgan; Edward got this loan despite the fact his mind was beginning to cloud. He was a deacon at Irvington Presbyterian Church, Irvington, Westchester, New York, on 25 November 1888.52 On 26 November 1891 Edward’s firm declared bankruptcy because his company had failed for $2,000.000.  A suspicion of irregularities were confirmed and it appeared that Edward had pledged securities held in trust against loans he had negotiated to finance his market speculations. On 15 December 1891 Edward Morse FIELD Sr. was arrested and imprisoned, charged with forgery and raising money on false bills of lading.  This arrest came after suspicions of irregularities were confirmed and it appeared that he had pledged securities held in trust against loans he had negotiated to finance his market speculation.  His father, Cyrus, mortgaged his home for $500,000 to help cover these debts, but it was little help nor relief to his sense of guilt. He was 24 December 1891 declared legally insane and confined to a sanitarium called Bloomingdale; an autopsy later indicated his mental problems were the result of his horseback riding accident in 1866. He lived between 1895 and 1898 at State Hospital for the Insane, Buffalo, Erie, New York, (from article in NY. Herald 10 Feb 1904). He was arrested with a group of tramps and charged with being a vagrant (from an article in the NY. Herald 10 Feb 1904) in 1900. He lived in February 1904 at Columbia Hotel, Broadway & 49th Street, New York, New York, New York, (from article in the NY. Herald of 10 Feb 1904). He was arrested for stealing an overcoat from an office in the Western Union Building, 195 Broadway on October 6, 1903. (article in the NY. Herald) on 9 February 1904 at White Plains, Westchester, New York. He wrote a letter 19 January 1914 from Lincoln House, Newark, Essex, New Jersey, to his son, Woolsey, in which Edward states he is transferring his membership in the Metropolitan Museum to him.  He further states that this membership was originally given to him by his father, Cyrus.53

He died on 9 June 1894 at 166 West 65th Street (at home), New York, New York, New York, at age 37 of consumption.  In February before he died, he had visited London, England and took a severe cold, which settled in his lungs.  He reached the United States on 9 April 1894 in a weak condition and became very ill, which developed into the quick consumption.71 He was buried in Hillside Cemetery in North Adams, Berkshire, Massachusetts in the Andrews family plot.

He also went by the name of Will. As of between 1860 and 1870, he also went by the name of William. He appeared as a son on the census of 27 June 1860 in the household of Cyrus West FIELD and Mary Bryan STONE at Yonkers, Westchester, New York.17 He appeared as a son on the census of 12 July 1870 in the household of Cyrus West FIELD and Mary Bryan STONE at between Irvington and Dobbs Ferry, Greenburgh Township, Westchester, New York; they also appear on the New York City, New York County, New York census of 1870 in the 18th Ward.22,23 In 1879 Cyrus William FIELD graduated from Williams College, Williamstown, Berkshire, Massachusetts. He and Susan Moore ANDREWS lived in July 1879 at 8 East 56th Street, New York, New York, New York.71 He was a member of and had a seat on the New York Stock Exchange; after his father met the losses that swept away a large portion of his fortune, Will’s career on Wall Street waned.  His seat on the Stock Exchange was advertised for sale on 21 June 1891, but he left with an unblemished career.71 In July 1892 Cyrus William FIELD was appointed as a United States consul to Hanover and Brunswick, Germany by President Harrison.

 

Susan Moore ANDREWS also went by the name of Susie.  She was born in November 1859 at Massachusetts, the daughter of Reuben Ranney Andrews, who was a large manufacturer of cotton and woolen goods, and Sarah M.

She married second to Franklin Wells GRAVES on 23 February 1906 at the Reformed Church, Greenburgh, Westchester, New York, and it is interesting to note that Franklin was living in Susan’s household on the 1900 census, listed as a cousin.  Franklin was born 24 March 1869 in Waterbury, Connecticut.  She and Franklin appeared on the census of 27 April 1910 at Greenburgh, Westchester, New York .  Some time after the death on 4 November 1913 in New York City of her second husband, Franklin, she married a third time to George Converse KIMBALL, who was born 21 October 1866 in Connecticut.  She and George Converse KIMBALL appeared on the census of 18 April 1930 at Kent Cliffs Road, Carmel, Putnam, New York .  Susan died on 31 December 1930 at her suite at the Hotel Roosevelt, New York City, New York (Manhattan Borough), New York, after a short illness.  Her Death Certificate is #107.  She was buried in the Hillside Cemetery, North Adams, Berkshire, Massachusetts in the Andrews family plot.  Her third husband, George, didn’t die until 30 October 1952 and is buried in Cedar Hill Cemetery in Hartford, Connecticut.

During World War I Woolsey Hopkins FIELD served in the intelligence service of the Allies and because he spoke fluent German, he took the part of a German soldier and crossed the English Channel at night, spying for the British forces.  He also knew how to speak fluent French and Spanish.  He was a good friend of Edward, the Duke of Windsor, who abdicated his throne.59 He lived in 1918 at Room 447, 32 Nassau Street, New York, New York, New York.89 He appeared as a widowed son on the census of 16 January 1920 in the household of Clara Louise LINDLEY at 112 East 17th Street, New York (Manhattan Borough), New York, New York.57,58

He was an independent company worker, working on his own accord in January 1920 at New York (Manhattan Borough), New York, New York. He ruptured his appendix and had surgery on 9 June 1920 in Cuba.87 Between August 1921 and 1924 Woolsey Hopkins FIELD and Estelle Gwendoline MASSER alternated living at the Chatham Hotel (later the Gladstone Hotel) in New York City, and the Lafayette or Mayflower Hotel, Washington D.C, While they lived in the Lafayette Hotel, Estelle became a good friend of Mrs. Frances Cleveland (married President Cleveland in 1886). He was an exporter and importer in April 1922.90

He and Estelle Gwendoline MASSER lived in April 1922 at 305 West 72nd Street, Apartment 73, New York, New York, New York, at the time of their daughter’s birth.  The labor for their daughter’s birth started while they were attending a play called "Blossom Time" in New York City.  The hospital refused to admit Estelle as they claimed no one so tiny could be ready to deliver, but her pregnancy was confirmed by her doctor.91,90,87

He was involved between 1924 and 1925 at Caracas, Venezuela, in handling oil agreements for the United States government and coordinating the oil transfers between the two countries. He and Estelle Gwendoline MASSER lived between 1924 and 1925 at Caracas, Venezuela, while they lived there, they had an Indian housekeeper, who supposedly only knew Spanish.  But when they were leaving the country permanently, she spoke perfect English to them, letting them know she had understood all their conversations and had been spying for her government.87 Woolsey and Estelle Gwendoline MASSER lived at Hotel Cecil, Vedado, Havana, Cuba, in 1925.  They moved there because on their way home from Venezuela, they stopped to see friends there, who influenced Woosley to stay and help with the Central Highway project.92

While living in Cuba, he was in a train accident going to Havana, which affected his liver and broke some bones. He was involved between 1925 and 1932 at Havana, Cuba, with the construction of the 700 mile concrete highway from Pinar Del Rio to Santiago.  The Republic of Cuba awarded this highway contract to the Warren Brothers Company of Boston, Massachusetts to lay Warrenite Bitulithic pavement on the Central Highway.  Warren Brothers, one of the early financial backers of Henry Kaiser, subcontracted 200 miles of that highway, along with culverts and 500 bridges, to the Kaiser Paving Company (later Kaiser Industries).  The total cost was about $75 million and its construction covered 4 to 5 years.  It was doubtless the largest single road contract in the world at that time.  The work started on March 2, 1927 when Woolsey’s daughter, Rhoda, set off the first dynamite explosion.  The work was completed a year ahead of schedule. Dr. Carlos Miguel de Cespedes, was the Cuban Secretary of Public Works at that time and Gerardo Machado was the President of Cuba.  Woolsey’s payment for his work on the highway was $200,000 and this money was put in a trust fund for his wife and daughter. After the highway was finished, Woolsey became involved in the gold mining there.93,94,95

He and Estelle Gwendoline MASSER lived between 1926 and 1932 at Apartment 41, Edificio Chibas, 237 Avenida de los Presidentes, Havana, Cuba, they set up their apartment with new furnishings bought at the Palais Royale furniture store.  They had a chauffeur who drove Rhoda and his young son to school each morning when Rhoda got old enough to go and Aleitha Henry (later Barnett) became their beloved housekeeper.  She was from Jamaica, spoke English, and was trained as a teacher.  She worked for them until the Cuban revolution forced the family to return to the United States permanently.  During the summers in Cuba, Estelle would return to the United States with Rhoda and they stayed at first with her parents in Pennsylvania, but a few years later, they purchased a summer cottage at Eagles Mere, Pennsylvania, which they continued to use even after they moved back to the United States .  The cottage, named Forest Idle Ease, was sold in 1949, when Estelle moved to California.96,97 Woolsey and Estelle Gwendoline MASSER lived between 1932 and 1933 at 5335 Angora Terrace, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with Estelle’s parents.

Between 1932 and 1939 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Woolsey was a chemist on an asphalt paving system called "Bitchavert", which was first tried on the Philadelphia Post Office roof for a helicopter landing pad in 1936. Between 1932 and 1939 Wyncote, Montgomery, Pennsylvania, Woolsey Hopkins FIELD joined an Episcopal church while he was quite sick from some disease for which the doctor ordered him isolated in a special room inside another room in the house.  He got over the disease, but it weakened him.

On 5 April 1933 Woolsey Hopkins FIELD and Estelle Gwendoline MASSER bought 12 Bent Road (changed to 231 North Bent Road between 1941 and 1946), Wyncote, Montgomery, Pennsylvania, they actually bought 3 lots (#11,12, 13) and had houses built on them.  After his death, Estelle, his widow, stayed in the house until she sold it 5 October 1949 and moved to California.59,98,99,100

Thorold Farrar FIELD was born on 6 March 1884 at New York, New York, New York.119 He was baptized on 30 October 1885 at Dobbs Ferry, Westchester, New York, by Canon Farrar.  Thorold was named for this man with his middle name.120 He married Katherine VAN VLECK on 20 June 1931 at Superior, Douglas, Wisconsin. He died on 13 June 1960 at Duluth, Saint Louis, Minnesota, at age 76.121,122 He was buried at Forest Hill Cemetery, 2516 Woodland Avenue, Duluth, Saint Louis, Minnesota, in Section L, Block 44, Lot 13.9

He was listed as a mining engineer in Jun 1900 at New York, when he appeared as a son on the census of 1 Jun 1900 in the household of Clara Louise LINDLEY at 17 East 43rd Street, New York City, New York (Manhattan Borough), New York.56 In 1903 he graduated from the University of Minnesota, Duluth, Saint Louis, Minnesota, with a bachelor of science degree in geology from the College of Science and Engineering. He appeared on the census of 1910 at Montello, Elko, Nevada, where he is listed as a lodger and his occupation is engineer in the mining industry. In 1912 he graduated from Harvard’s Graduate Schools of Applied Sciences with a degree in Mining Engineering. He appeared on the census of Jan 1920 at 1531 First, Duluth, Saint Louis, Minnesota, where he was living alone.123 He was described as 5 feet, 6 1/2 inches tall, full forehead, blue eyes, straight nose, medium mouth, round chin, brown hair, fair complexion, and oval face on his United States passport application. Family described him as short, stocky and he talked quickly. He appeared on the census of 1930 at Duluth, Saint Louis, Minnesota, where he is listed a lodger and his occupation is again mining engineer in the mine industry. He was a founder, owner and operator of gold mines in Africa, where he first visited to find his Lindley family missionary roots in the early 1930’s. He lived in 1935 at Rhodesia as cited on the 1940 census. And according to his son, Cyrus III, Thorold was the geologist that recognized that the Roan Antelope deposit in Southern Rhodesia was much richer than people thought. It became the biggest copper mine in the world at the time. Thorold is mentioned in the book "The Northern Rhodesia Copperbelt 1899-1962" by Francis L. Coleman on pages 49 and 200. Thorold and his wife, Katherine, appeared on the census of 1940 at Palm Beach, Palm Beach, Florida, with their 2 children and he is again listed as a mining engineer, but this time it states he is in private practice. He and Katherine lived at Little Rock, Arkansas, while Thorold worked on bauxite deposits during World War II. They moved here in part because they were afraid of being on the coast in Palm Beach due to threats of German attacks. Thorold was a member of the sub-committee on Raw Materials for the Atomic Energy Advisory Board in 1953. His ties to Africa and uranium deposits there may have played a role in his appointment. The family has a photo of Thorold standing next to J. Robert Oppenheimer, which was probably taken during the Bikini bomb testing.

Harvey Garland DRUIN was an avid golfer, making a hole in one more than once; he also enjoyed being the trustee of a family trust and watching the stock market.  His daughter, Diane, remembers him saying that it would be a great day when the stock market hit 1000 (it was over 11,000 in the year 2000). He also went by the name of Garland or Gar. He also went by the name of Sonny Boy which was used by his mother. He was born on 9 June 1918 at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Oklahoma.143,144,135,145 He lived with Harvey Greenberry DRUIN and Grace Virginia LEWIS on 9 June 1918 at 500 1/2 North Durland, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Oklahoma; (this house no longer exists, the researcher took a photo of the area in the 1990’s).143,146 Harvey Garland DRUIN was named by his mother’s aunt, Nina Ward, because his mother refused to name him Harvey Greenberry after his father and this way, he had the same initials.  He used H. Garland Druin, Jr as his legal signature although his name technically wasn't the same as his father’s. He appeared as a son on the census of 6 January 1920 in the household of Harvey Greenberry DRUIN and Grace Virginia LEWIS at 2206 Buchanan Street, Amarillo, Potter, Texas.147,148 On 17 June 1932 Harvey Garland DRUIN graduated from Mount Vernon Junior High School, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California.149 Circa 1936 Harvey Garland DRUIN was diagnosed as a diabetic at about age 18.  Although he was a brittle diabetic, his health remained pretty good until the 1960’s.  He did, however, have back disc surgery in 1953.  In 1964 he had cataract surgery.  Also in 1964, he was a guinea pig for pituitary obliteration-cryogenic surgery for eye hemorrhaging.  He had cataract surgery on the other eye in 1965.  That same year he had laser surgery to try to stop the eye hemorrhaging.  He had percutaneous cordotomy surgery (neurosurgery) to try and stop the pain in his foot in 1971.  He had a pin put in his right hip due to a fall in 1976.  Later that year he had surgery on his right retina and went into a coma and shock, from which he survived. He was educated in 1936 at Los Angeles Junior College, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California.150 He lived with Grace Virginia LEWIS and Eaton Brenton LLOYD Jr in 1938 at 237 North Bent Road, Wyncote, Montgomery, Pennsylvania; in a  home rented from and next door to Estelle Masser Field.151 Between September 1939 and April 1940 Harvey Garland DRUIN lived at Norristown, Montgomery, Pennsylvania, while he worked for Sears, a job his step-father got for him, and until he was transferred to the Sears Chicago office and lived at the YMCA for some months. Between April 1940 and January 1942 at Chicago, Cook, Illinois, Harvey Garland DRUIN was employed by Sears as a furniture buyer and he also wrote copy for the company’s catalogs, making $32 a week.  He worried a great deal about the correct spelling and putting in the correct price.  He was fired as a result of a conflict between his step-father and Sears. In 1942 Harvey Garland DRUIN was a worker in a defense plant for a while.  He could not tolerate the work schedule with his diabetes and left this job at Tut Hill Springs, county unknown, Illinois. Between June 1942 and December 1944 Chicago, Cook, Illinois, Harvey Garland DRUIN was employed by Wieboldts Department Store in accounting; he was later transferred to the dress department, where he made a name for himself.

He was chairman of the Red Cross fund campaign for downtown businesses in March 1950 at Sacramento, Sacramento, California. Between 1953 and May 1955 at 3113 South Grand Avenue, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California, Garland was a partner with Trend-O-Fashion, which was a chain of women’s apparel shops; this meant a great deal of travel up and down the state and it was difficult as a diabetic and he began looking for other work after several years. Between May 1955 and December 1955 at San Francisco, San Francisco, California, Harvey Garland DRUIN was employed by Lerner’s women’s apparel shops, managing the store in San Francisco and commuting from his home in Hillsborough on the peninsula.  He was told at first that he would be going to Seattle, Washington and in fact, Garland and Rhoda even bought a house there, which they never lived in before they sold it.  Garland hated the bus commute to San Francisco and the smog and asked for a transfer only a couple of months later. After January 1956 Harvey Garland DRUIN was a member of the Retail Merchants Association (presiding as chairman for a term), the Chamber of Commerce (presiding as director at one time), the Kiwanis Club (he was also a Kiwanis Klown), and the SIRS Club at Lodi, San Joaquin, California.150 On 12 April 1960 Lodi, San Joaquin, California, Harvey Garland DRUIN ran for city councilman in the general municipal election.  There were 9 candidates running for the two vacant seats.  Garland did not win a seat, having come in 5th with 817 votes.
