• Notes

  [Francis Brock Descendants pVella.FTW] Angeline died as a result of a railroad accident on Jan. 25, 1860. Her husband, William Tilley received a judgment against the Hudson River Railroad Co. for the negligence of the Company by which the death of Angeline Tilley was caused. The statute under which the judgment was recovered stated the money so received was "for the exclusive benefit of the next of kin of such deceased person". Betsy M. Tilley Burdick sued the courts so none of the monies could be used by her father, who she said was not a next of kin, and was remarried at the time. She prevailed, and the money, $3150.00, was divided between the five living children - Betsy, Hannah, James L., Charles F., and Laura. From a book on the Tilley Family at the Grafton, NY Historical Society.

Can you young people visualize the trip? A yoke of oxen, and six weeks on the road from Grafton, NY to Hebron, Potter Co, PA-- a day's trip, or a little more, with your automobile. Imagine them reaching here and choosing a spot, cutting down trees, and clearing a space large enough, at first, to build a log cabin. Then the real struggle began, to keep the wolf from the door in more than one sense of the word. I've listened to my mother tell how, as a child, she had sat on the door-step and listened to the howling of the wolves close by. The future can never bring anything to us that we should be more proud of than our brave old ancestors, "heroes and heroines." Mother dear (Mary Angeline Brock Dingman) was only six monhs old when she made that trip. But I fancy she was as happy as any of the weary travelers. Often it was hard to find a place to stop overnight. Grandma said once, they stopped at an inn, but everything was so mysterious and queer, they were afraid to stay after resting the stock. (I think they brought a cow and a calf.) Then they started on the road again. How worn and weary they must have been before they reached Potter Co! ___________________
