Note - Walter Havens Trimmer

BIOGRAPHY:
Walter Havens Trimmer, deceased, was for many years a prominent citizen of
McLean County, IL. He was born at Hudson, Ill., Jan. 16, 1862, the son of John
Anderson and Maria (Clark) Trimmer.

John Anderson Trimmer was born at Havens Grove, Ill., May 11, 1834, and died at
Uniontown, Kan., July 15, 1880. He was a farmer during his life and had lived
in Kansas since 1870. His wife was born July 4, 1836, and died in 1864. They
were the parents of one child, Walter Havens, the subject of this sketch.

Walter Havens Trimmer was reared on his father's farm and at the age of 20
years began railroading on the Chicago & Alton Railroad. He was a fireman for
several years and was promoted to engineer in 1893. Mr. Trimmer was killed in
a railroad accident on Jan. 24, 1917, when his engine was struck by a
Pennsylvania switch engine, running wild. He was backing his engine into the
Chicago Union Station when the accident occurred. Mr. Trimmer's only other
accident was when his train left the tracks at Hopedale, Ill.

On Nov. 22, 1911, Mr. Trimmer was married in Bloomington to Miss Alice Scibird,
a native of Bloomington, and the daughter of Joseph H. and Frances (Clark)
Scibird, the former a native of Delaware County, Ind., and the latter of
Kingston, Ind. Joseph H. Scibird was a major during the Civil War, having
enlisted at Bloomington in the 70th Illinois Volunteer Infantry. He was the
photographer that took the pictures of the indignation meeting at the time of
President Lincoln's assassination. Mr. Scibird was a well-known photographer
and his brother, John, was in business with him. He served as postmaster of
Bloomington in 1870 and was the founder of the Leader, a newspaper later merged
with the Bulletin. There were three children in the Scibird family, as
follows: Mrs. Alice Trimmer; Albert Clark, deceased; and Florence, married to
Walter H. Craber, lives in Chicago. Mr. Scibird died Jan 1, 1889, at the age
of 48 years and his widow now lives with her daughter, Mrs. Trimmer. Mr. and
Mrs. Trimmer had no children.

Mr. Trimmer was a Republican, and a member of the Locomotive Firemen and
Engineers. He belonged to the Knights of Pythias and the Masonic Lodge, No.
43, of Bloomington. He was active in the Consistory and Shrine and was elected
a 32d degree Mason in September, 1916, but was killed before receiving the
degree. Mr. Trimmer was a substantial citizen, who stood well in the esteem of
his fellow citizens. His widow lives at 911 South Fell Street, Normal, IL.

Rev. David TRIMMER
Born - 1811 NJ
Died - 1881 IL
Bur. - 1881 Hudson, Mc Lean Co., IL, West Hudson Cemetery
Son of John D. TRIMMER & Elizabeth LANTERMAN

Note - David Trimmer

BIOGRAPHY:
David Trimmer was born in 1811 in New Jersey, probably a son of John Trimmer.

He came to Havens Grove some time in the 1820's where he married Margaret Havens, born in 1812 in Ohio, a daughter of Jesse and Rebecca (Hinthorn) Havens. They were the parents of John Anderson, born 1834; Mary E., born 1836; Havens C., born 1839; and Charles M., born 1845. Margaret Trimmer died in 1862 and the Rev. David Trimmer died in 1881. Both are buried in West Hudson Cemetery.

The David Trimmer house, constructed of black walnut, without the use of nails, was located on the west side of Route 51, just south of Hudson, IL. The small, two story structure burned in the 1940's. David Trimmer was a blacksmith, probably the first in the area. On January 7, 1833, he entered 40 acres in Section 20 and 40 acres in Section 28. On December 18, 1835, he entered 80 acres in the east one-half of the northwest quarter of Section 28, and it is probably on this land that the first Methodist church was built.

In 1850 some of the leading citizens of Bloomington began working for a university, which they wished placed under the control of the Methodist church, which they felt would assure good management. On December 2, 1850, the first Board of Trustees of Illinois Wesleyan University was organized under the general laws of the state. David Trimmer was one of the Trustees.

The first Quarterly Meeting Conference for Hudson Circuit was held in the M.E. Church on November 19, 1853 and David Trimmer was listed as a Local Preacher who was present. He was elected to a Board of Stewards, and to the Missionary Committee, and to a committee to investigate the building of a parsonage, and to a committee appointed "to estimate the Probably amount of Table Expenses for the Present year." On June 18, 1858, Horatio N. Pettit and his wife Harriet N. Pettit deeded Lot one, Block thirteen to the Trustees of the Methodist Church, one of whom was David Trimmer. The new church was constructed on this lot.

Havens, Hiram

Hiram HAVENS
Born - 29 Mar 1817 Licking Co., OH
Died - 13 Oct 1890 Hudson, Mc Lean Co., IL

Note - Hiram Havens

BIOGRAPHY:
Hiram Havens was born March 29, 1817, in Licking County, Ohio. He worked for
his father, Jesse Havens, in his younger days and broke prairie with an
ox-team. He and his brother John broke prairie together and together kept
bachelor's hall. John usually brought up the oxen in the morning, while Hiram
pounded the cornmeal for breakfast. They often killed deer, sometimes early
enough in the morning to have venison for breakfast.

In March 1883, Hiram Havens went to More's mill on Panther Creek, in company
with a man named Platt. But on his return he found it impossible to cross the
Mackinaw. His companion, Platt, managed to cross on the ice with a pole,
intending to go home and return with something for Havens to eat, but on his
return it was impossible to re-cross the Mackinaw, as it had risen to an
enormous height. Havens was left to lay all night on an open sled on the bank
of the Mackinaw in a sleeting storm. But he fortunately had his feet protected
by a big dog, which kept them warm. The wolves came unpleasantly near and
seemed very anxious to make mutton of him. The next morning he rode eight
miles in the storm on one of his horses, leading the other. He obtained some
parched corn for breakfast, of a man named More, then rode two miles farther to
a house where he was given some boiled corn and venison. He lived there
sixteen days before he could re-cross the Mackinaw. He found that the crows
and mice had eaten much of his flour, and possibly the wolves might have
assisted in the matter.

Hiram Havens was a good shot and pretty certain to bring down his game. His
father once treed a lynx, which is an immensely long-bodied animal, with spots
or short stripes, and with legs which are short, thick and powerful. Hiram was
called to shoot the animal, and put a bullet into its brain. It fell to the
ground and an incautious dog came rather close, when the lynx gave it a blow
with its paw, which sent the dog rolling senseless. The lynx died in a few
moments. It measured six feet from tip to tip, but its tail was short. Its
nails were two inches in length.

The lynxes, as may be seen by the description, are ferocious animals, and have
given rise to many stories. One of these was the story of the once celebrated
Clem Oatman. It was said that Clem Oatman was once coming home from mill, when
he saw one of these lynxes and killed it with a club and carried it on his
horse, which was a very tall one. And it was said that this lynx dragged its
head in the snow on one side and its hindquarters in the snow on the other, and
in this manner the wonderful lynx was carried home. The news of Clem Oatman's
lynx was carried over the country, and was told in every school house, church
and grocery. So far as the truth of this story is concerned, the reader can
believe as much or as little as he chooses. If he wishes to cultivate his
faith, this story is a good one to practice on.

Mr. Havens takes delight in stories, and tells one on a certain man named Wood,
an English sailor, who came to the neighborhood with Mr. Samuel Lewis. Wood
went hunting, with a fine gun, which Lewis had brought from England. The gun
was scoured up brightly, and was of beautiful workmanship. Wood wounded a
deer, which turned for fight, and came with its hair all bristling forward,
though it was much worried by the dogs. Wood turned to the deer and said:
"Don't you come 'ooking' at me, Mr. Deer, or I'll knock 'ee in the 'ead with
the gun." But the deer was not familiar with broad English dialect and did not
heed the warning. The old sailor managed the gun as he would a handspike and
broke the deer's horns and mashed its head and laid it out dead. But the
pretty gun, which had been brought from England, with pretty mountings and fancy
trappings, was broken and battered and useless for further service.

Hiram Havens commenced work for the Illinois Central Railroad Company in 1851,
when that great undertaking was put under contract. He worked two years and a
half, furnishing ties, bridge lumber, etc., and could have remained in the
service of the company, but was afraid of the uncertainty of life on the road.

Mr. Havens has been pretty successful in life, and has made his money by the
hardest of labor. When he married and commenced life for himself, he was on
sixty acres of land, which was given to him by his father. He lived in a cabin
twelve feet square, made of split logs. It had only one window, and was a hard
looking affair. He and his wife had two cows, one pony, two chairs, one bed
and one blue chest, which they used as a table. During the first year he did
his ploughing with a borrowed horse, but succeeded well and bought more land and
in about three years was able to build a house. He continued farming and
raising stock and accumulating property, until he became pretty independent.
In 1859 he bought the farm of Enoch S. Havens, and since that time built the
house where he now lives. His property is not tied up with trust deeds or
mortgages, but belongs to him in fee simple.

He married Sarah A. Trimmer, April 5, 1838. She is still living. He has five
children, of whom three are living. They are:

Mrs. Martha E. Johnson, wife of John S. Johnson, lives at White Oak Grove.

Alice Havens and Etta B. Havens, the pet, live at home.

Mr. Havens is nearly six feet in height, and has a fair amount of muscle. His
hair was once what is politely called intensely auburn, that is, it had a
reddish cast, but now it is sprinkled with gray. He has been a hard and
industrious worker, and has the respect and confidence of the community where
he resides, as is seen by the fact that he has been justice of the peace for
sixteen years.

MARRIAGE: The marriage of Hiram Havens and Sarah Ann Trimmer is recorded in Book
A, p. 100.


BIOGRAPHY:
Hiram Havens, deceased, was one of the honored pioneer settlers of Mc Lean
County, IL. He was born in Licking County, Ohio, March 29, 1817, the son of
Jesse and Margaret (Hinthorn) Havens.

Jesse Havens was a native of Monmouth County, N.J., and the son of Jesse
Havens, Sr., who was killed during the War of 1812 when the vessel, Essix, was
sunk and the entire crew massacred. Jesse Havens, Jr., father of the subject
of this sketch, brought his family from Ohio to Mc Lean County, Ill., on Dec.
31, 1829, making the trip in covered wagons. They settled on land in Hudson
Township, and Mr. Havens became the owner of 2,000 acres of land, which is
known as Havens Grove. He served in the War of 1812 and was one of 160 men who
took part in the defense of Fort Stephenson. Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Havens had 11
children, of whom Hiram, the subject of this sketch, was the second in order of
birth.

Hiram Havens was reared on the farm in Hudson Township, where he spent his
entire life. He was 12 years old when his people came to McLean County and at
that time Indians were still living in the county. The homestead in Hudson
Township is known as "Havenhurst" and it has been in the Havens family about
100 years. Hiram Havens was greatly interested in the study of law and at the
time of his death owned 300 volumes of law books. He became a counselor and
also served as justice of the peace for many years, and was always proud of the
fact that in his 40 years of service in that capacity, none of his decisions
were reversed in higher courts. Mr. Havens died Oct. 13, 1890.
.
On April 5, 1838, Hiram Havens was united in marriage with Miss Sarah Ann
Trimmer, a native of Hunterdon, N.J. born Feb. 4, 1821, and a daughter of John
and Elizabeth (Lanterman) Trimmer, the former a native of Hunterdon County,
N.J., and the latter of Germany. To Mr. and Mrs. Havens five children were
born, of whom only one is now living, Mrs. Etta Carrithers.

Mrs. Etta Carrithers was born on the home place in Hudson Township, and on
March 1, 1863, was married to Fred A. Carrithers, a native of Marshall County,
Ill., born Jun 20, 1858, and the son of Rev. William P. and Mary (Barnes)
Carrithers, natives of Indiana. Mr. Carrithers is depot agent for the Illinois
Central Railroad at Hudson and he and his wife reside on the old Havens
homestead, "Havenhurst." They have one son, Henry Carrithers.

Mrs. Carrithers was educated in the public schools and attended Illinois State
Normal University at Normal. She is a member of the Daughters of the American
Revolution and is now the fifth vice-president of the United States Daughters
of the War of 1812. During the World War Mrs. Carrithers was chairman of home
service and devoted her entire time to war work. She is a member of the McLean
County Historical Society and held the vice-presidency for two years. She has
in her possession some interesting history in connection with the Havens family
and has traced it back as far as the year 800. The Havens family originally
came from France and Mrs. Carrithers has a metal painting coat of arms of the
family.

In politics Hiram Havens was originally a Whig and later a Republican. He was
a member of the Methodist Church. Mr. Havens was a prominent man of the
community, highly esteemed by all who knew him.

BIOGRAPHY:
Jesse Havens was born June 23, 1781, near the mouth of Sqawn River in New
Jersey. His father came from Wales when quite young. He was a sea captain and
was shipwrecked and lost his life on the ocean by shipwreck. Jesse Havens came
to Virginia, when only a boy and lived with a brother-in-law, named Newman.
There he went bear-hunting and killed a great number. Mr. Newman made bear
hunting a business and Jesse Havens went out with a company of hunters under
Newman and stayed for three months at a time without seeing any human beings,
except members of the company. Jesse Havens was an excellent marksman, and as
the bear were thick, had every chance to exercise his skill. He sometimes took
the dogs and went out hunting himself and occasionally had some unexpected
adventures. At one time, while alone watching a deer-lick, he heard an animal
approaching, which proved to be a panther. It ran up a tree and seemed also to
be on the watch for deer. Jesse took careful aim at it, fired and ran for
home. The hunters returned with him to the spot and found the panther dead.

At one time he had a dangerous adventure with a bear. He shot a bear which had
been treed and it fell wounded, and hugged the dog, which had treed it. When
Jesse came up, the bear and dog went rolling down a hill, but Jesse succeeded
in killing the bear with his knife and tomahawk. He considered this a narrow
escape.

He went in 1801 to where Newark, Ohio, now is, and built several log cabins for
a company which settled there. He married and moved eight miles north of that
place and cleared out a small farm and ran a shop in which he made furniture,
chairs, etc.

Jesse Havens enlisted in the war of 1812 and was at the desperate defense made
by Major Croghan and his band of one hundred and sixty men, of Fort Stephenson
on the Lower Sandusky.

In the fall of 1829 Jesse Havens came to Illinois. He came first to Big Grove,
near where Urbana now is, and from there went in search of a house and found
one on the North Fork of the Sangamon, south of where Leroy now is. When he
moved his family there, which was in December, 1829, the sleet troubled him
very much, and he was obliged to walk many miles to obtain corn for food.

He left the Sangamon and came to Buckles' Grove and from there he came to where
Hudson now is, in January 1830. There he bought some claims, made improvements
and went to farming, as did all the settlers in that section.

In 1850 Jesse Havens sold out and went to Iowa, but after a few years returned
to Havens' Grove. Here he lived two years with his son Hiram and then went
back to Iowa, where he remained until the time of his death, which occurred
December 2, 1862. Just previous to his death, he requested his son William to
bury him in Havens' Grove, and this request was carried out. He was at the
time of his death, eighty-one years, five months, and nine days old.

He was married to Rebecca Hinthorn in Licking County, Ohio. He had eleven
children, all of who lived to become men and women. They are:

• Mrs. Elizabeth Platt, wife of Hezekiah Platt, died in Northern Iowa.
• Mrs. Anna Smith, wife of John Smith, lives at Havens' Grove
• Mrs. Dorcas Wheeler, wife of Benjamin Wheeler, lives at Havens' Grove
• Mrs. Margaret Trimmer, wife of David Trimmer, died at Havens' Grove
• John Havens lives at Ford County, Illinois, not far from Paxton.
• Hiram Havens lives at Havens' Grove.
• Jesse D. Havens lives in Lincoln, Illinois, on the Chicago & Alton Railroad.
• Rev. James Havens lives in Wisconsin. He is a Methodist minister and belongs to the Wisconsin Conference.
• Rev. Enoch Stephen Havens also is a Methodist minister belonging to the Wisconsin Conference.
• Ired M. Havens died at Kappa, January 8, 1852, aged twenty-six years, seven months and twenty-one days. He is buried at Havens' Grove.
• W.W. Havens lives in Northern Iowa.

Jesse Havens was six feet in height, had heavy hair and eyebrows, and was very muscular. He was a good man and quite successful in life. He gave the name to Havens' Grove. He was one of the first Commissioners elected in McLean County after its organization.

RESIDENCES: In January 1830, Jesse Havens and family settled in what has since been called Haven's Grove.
(Source: excerpt from "Good Old Times In McLean County" page 8. - Rex King)

PUBLIC_SERVICE: The business of McLean County was transacted by a board of three commissioners. The first meeting of the Commissioners' Court was held May 16, 1831. The members present were Jonathan Cheney, Timothy B. Hoblit and Jesse Havens.

LAND: Land Grants: Illinois Land Grant Records, document #472, #473, #572, #573, #3777, and #3778, show Jesse received land grants for 5 tracts of 80 acres, and one tract of 40 acres. The first two on 1 Oct 1833, the second two on 16 Sep 1835, and the last two on 1 Apr 1837
