Some of my friends convinced me that most people could not look at hundreds of vacation photos so I took their advise and posted these few. So many good shots left unshared maybe I'll try some more in a different medium.<br />

two articles are interesting in that they show Fred Overrocker owning property
and living for a number of years in Yorkville, New York (near Utica). It is
right near New York Mills which was a textile manufacturing city at the time.Fred
Overrocker worked in the textile mills in Amsterdam, New York later so maybe
that is why he was living in Yorkville. Maybe we are related to the Overrocker’s

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">My
first post on this blog (Casline Family Blog-Alan’s Version) was on a relative,
James Reilly. He was a family “black sheep” but also a “swashbuckler”. He took
a second wife while living in Nevada without divorcing the first and was shot
and killed in a gunfight. The first post accounts this and other information. I
had always thought his connection was as a distant uncle or cousin. After
re-reading Ruth Clark’s genealogy, I find the connection much closer. James Reilly
was my Great Grandfather. There is family information on James in the articles
written about him that differs somewhat from Ruth Clark’s. The U.S. Government did
an investigation to see if James’ Civil War Pension should go to his second
wife, Elizabeth Doyle. Here are some dates from that investigation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Grandfather married Mary Soper on November 24, 1855 in Perth, N.Y….Ruth Clark
wrote he married the Mohawk, Mary Young. Ruth Clark said they had three
children and the other account says there were four children Mary E. Soper Reilly is identified as giving
a deposition as Mary Kline of Akin, Montgomery Co.. “Kline” is German for “Young”
and Akin is the early names for Fort Johnson—so this adds up. Her family name
seems to be Soper. Mary Kline is given the age of sixty-three in 1902, so was
born 1839 or 1840. I had been told there was a familyconnection to the
Kline/Young Family of early settlers Palatine Dutch in the Mohawk Valley.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

I have just a family breakdown done by Ruth Clark for my mom, which she later gave to me. This traces the Overrockers back to County Meath Ireland and to America in 1837 by John Reilly (1800-1890). I would scan it but I think might be better to put in a typed form and post on my Casline Family Blog.</span><br />

</div>I’m Smart enough to know any relationship is in two parts—whatever the two people came to have together, they both contribute to. How I remember my brother Jeff… He pushed me and I pushed back. I learned to fight from my brother—and all the times in my life I fought, I didn’t give in, he has some credit for. I want to let people know he was a warrior. He did not dwell on the wounds he took. He was not a victim nor did he play one. These LAST WORDS come from a Cheyenne warrior’s death song. Each warrior would have sung his death song as he went into battle. <br />
<br />
<br />
<em>Farewell, my friends</em><br />
<em>My family</em><br />
<em>From the sacred places the god’s come for me</em><br />
<em>Never again</em><br />
<em>Never agai</em><br />
<em>Will you see me</em><br />
<em>But when west goes the dark wind</em><br />
<em>When north comes the swift grey clouds</em><br />
<em>Rain falls, covers the land</em><br />
<em>Showers pass and the thunder peals</em><br />
<em>There is the voice of my old friend</em><br />
<em>My father, my husband, big brother, grandfather</em><br />
<em>There is his voice</em><br />
<em>You will say</em><br />
<br />
I think Jeff would understand and get a kick out of me reading a warrior’s death song at his burial. <br />
<br />
<br />
Raymond Carver—a workingman’s poet—straight talking, no nonsense—called the ending years of his life “the gravy”. He had trouble and trials yet at the last period of his life—he married a wonderful woman and he saw and appreciated everything he had. Raymond Carver is buried at Ocean View Cemetery in Port Angeles, WA. The inscription on his tombstone is one he wrote. A number of my poet friends think it the best epitaph ever written. Jeff had his gravy years. A big bowl of gravy.<br />
<br />
<em>LATE FRAGMENT</em><br />
<em><br />
</em><br />
<em>And did you get what<br />
you wanted from this life, even so?</em><br />
<em>I did.</em><br />
<em>And what did you want?</em><br />
<em>To call myself beloved, to feel myself</em><br />
<em>beloved on the earth</em>. <br />
<br />
<br />
Jeff’s daughter Chandra already included “Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep” in her memories of her father. When we were little and all the way to high school we shared a room and starting when we were toddlers, we’d kneel down by our beds every night and say this prayer. Later we’d say it when already covered and the light turned off. My daughter Liz said when our dad, Papa Louie, would babysit her and her brother Tom, he would have them say it. As an adult I thought it a little weird that you would say a prayer about dying in your sleep. Now with Jeff dying in exactly that way, passing in the night while asleep, I see it in a whole other light—a peaceful poem, spiritual.<br />
<br />
Now I lay me down to sleep<br />
<br />
I pray the lord my soul to keep<br />
<br />
If I die before I wake<br />
<br />
I pray the lord my soul to take<br />
<br />
<br />
Thinking about Jeff, how he lived his life and how I will remember him: I though how often he loved the sound of a roaring machine of one kind or another. I wrote this poem for him.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>IN THE ROAR</strong><br />
<br />
for Jeff Casline<br />
<br />
Car engine roar revved up<br />
Manifolds blasting<br />
Blistering squeal <br />
Laying rubber<br />
Round a whole circle <br />
In the high school parking lot<br />
<br />
Roar of turbine start-up<br />
Spinning cylinder building speed <br />
Cranking energy<br />
Pressure loud shrieking out of release value<br />
Fire the grid, electricity like lightening<br />
Racing up the wires<br />
In an Arab country of sand.<br />
<br />
Speakers take up the back seat<br />
Cobbled wires to the 8-Track <br />
Ears bleeding from the noise<br />
(not quite, but loud with a capital L)<br />
Stones, Janis, Creedence<br />
Windows open to the night air<br />
Let them hear me coming<br />
Five miles from home<br />
<br />
On the bike in envelope of sound<br />
Down this hill then up<br />
Broad even turn to the left<br />
Lean into the wheels<br />
Body full of the movement<br />
Full of the roar<br />
Accelerating out of the turn<br />
Yelling in the wind<br />
<br />
In a dream the noise the noise of dream<br />
Top down, convertible humming a shiny tune<br />
Corvair noses pass on the outside<br />
Into the roar he goes<br />
The roar a suit of clothes<br />
Like a second skin, aura of his essence<br />
Corvette breathes in more gas<br />
Engine strains against fluttering valves<br />
Breaks pass all of them<br />
Road so open up ahead<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

A last muster was held by the Firemen. Rock's daughter Ros read the fine tribute written by his sister Janis that was also read at Rock's Atlanta, Georgia Memorial Service on Sunday August 15, 2010. Here are some photos and a video I took at the event.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506849619362757394" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pBZ4Nq2lXWY/TGxCjWGcuxI/AAAAAAAAA20/SD2jDfkE7Po/s400/aug+2010+108.jpg" /><br /></div><p>play video here<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwxOyBsIDK8JOkrhMchsdRF02focPLJ6wytzYygVCkrrmpGJN8eayWc2Qc3I2wID72ZY3JPMeHKMrHjuzbhIQ' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br /></p><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

Much is unknown about the people pictured. I do not know where the album came from, how it passed into my mother's hands. My best guess is it was in her father's possession and came to her when her father died. Whether he was the last of his siblings alive when he died. I also do not know. I did talk to my mother, Georgianna and she identified those photos she could identify. There is of course much historical fodder and some nice groupings of photos where the people are identified. I also have a family tree that I wrote out and will need to hunt up if I am really starting out on this family history recording task. What I want to do here is copy and post everything found in the OLD FAMILY ALBUM. I have been avoiding getting started on this work cause I suspect it will be time consuming and I have enough projects going on. Maybe other people will contribute and make the project better.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">NOTE: If you click on any photo below it will expand in size.</span><br /><br /><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 301px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371705598969964082" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pBZ4Nq2lXWY/SowhyCCU5jI/AAAAAAAAAV4/jJUvnXPhLWo/s400/old+family+008.jpg" />This is the front cover of the album. It is leather with printed gold ink. There is a metal (brass) clasp on the right hand side of the cover. The back cover is the same as this but in reverse. The album is approximately 11 inches by 8 inches. There are 16 pages inside for mounting photos (both sides equals 32 pages). These pages have precut openings some with one opening of either an oval or square shape, some with four squares(six pages). I count 46 photos either still in place or stuck within the albums covers. Some of these may have come from elsewhere and ended up here. I do not think this is the case with only one or two exceptions. I think these photos are the photos that were in the album.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 330px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371703502930140338" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pBZ4Nq2lXWY/Sowf4BrfXLI/AAAAAAAAAVw/jerPxz9t-8Y/s400/old+family+003.jpg" /><br />This is the frontpiece for the album. There is no identifying information for the album itself. It is not a customized book but manufactured as a standard product. No copyright, no name of printer, no dates, names.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 242px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371703420643995154" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pBZ4Nq2lXWY/SowfzPI8bhI/AAAAAAAAAVo/m3UUfgHzGRk/s400/old+family+002.jpg" /><br />I'm starting with this photo. This is Fred Overrocker and Pearl Cole. Parents of Fritz Overrocker and Georgianna Casline (Overrocker). Grandparents for my generation and Great-grandparents for the next generation. The back of this photo shows printing that makes it useable as a post card. Looks like a cigar in his right hand. Grandpa smoked cigars and chewed tobbacco.</p><p><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 289px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371703327857516690" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pBZ4Nq2lXWY/Sowft1e7IJI/AAAAAAAAAVg/gKJG9OswLaw/s400/old+family+001.jpg" /> </p><p>This is my grandfather, Fred G. Overrocker II, at a younger age. Looks to be a teenager, perhaps as a very young man. This photo comes from <em>The Wheaton Studio, 30 & 32 E. Main St.,</em> <em>Amsterdam, NY.</em> You can see that on front of photo. There is no identification on back<em>.</em><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 258px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371703246425065490" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pBZ4Nq2lXWY/SowfpGH6iBI/AAAAAAAAAVY/E3iDvMAQcIg/s400/old+family+005.jpg" /></p><br /><p>I think there are other copies of this photo around. I remember seeing it when I was a child. The comment from Georgie was "He looks like a girl but this is grandpa when he was a child. They used to do that, not cut their hair and dress the boys like girls when they were young" The context here is before the Beatles and hippies came along this is scandalously long hair for a boy. My brother Jeff and I had cool crewcuts and later duck-tails given to us by our uncle Dick Shea, a barber. A few of our baldysours(somebody look up this word and report back to me) were cut by grandpa when we were even younger by placing a bowl on your head and cutting everything left that showed. I think Rock got a few of grandpa's baldysours as well? The sailor suit and hat, long curly hair, I'm not good at ages, would you say around five years-old? The printing on the front says <em>Cohoes, NY</em> and a name, which is hard to read <em>Meinerth</em>? The back has an address written in pencil: Miss Pearl Cole, Fort Johnson, N.Y.</p><p>These are the only three pictures of Fred G.

Like all you other Irish babies with the Irish last names, a name like Reilly means lots of family to be related to (or not)Then there's the gunning down of "Jeems" in Nevada. His murderer found "not guilty"<br /><br /><strong>JAMES REILLY </strong><br /><br />Born 18 March 1839 Ireland Father- John Reilly b. 1811 Ireland, Mother- Mary nee? b. 1816 (Ireland)Immigrated to New York in 1839-1840 (son, John, Born NY 1840)Family in Tribes Hill NY, Mohawk Township, 1850 Census, page 368, House 195, Family 215 (Surname Reiley) Married: Mary Soper, 24 November 1855 Perth, New York Children: (4)Lived in Amsterdam, NY 1856-1861 Service in Civil War: Enlisted June 1861, Schenectady, NY, Co.

James ReillyHamilton Post Office Fraud 6/18/1881 Arrest of Postmaster Reilly The Eureka Leader of last Monday mentions the arrest of James Reilly late Postmaster at Hamilton by Sheriff Kyle acting as U.S. Marshall on this Wed. previous. Mr. Reilly was arrested on a bench warrant issued by Judge Helgan of the U.S. District Court at Carson on a charge of fraud while in office in having required an employee to receipt for larger sums of money than were actually paid. He was brought before the U.S. Commission and was admitted to bail in the sum of $14 to appear and answer to the charge before the U.S. District court in Carson on 21 June. The sureties in the bond are (n & n). It is probable that the new broom in the Post Office is sweeping too clean and that some technical point Mr. Reilly has been remit (sic) in making his report. We hope and are inclined to believe that he will be able to satisfy Uncle Sam in that he was a good and faithful Postmaster.3/2/1883 Our two business houses, Matterson Bros. and James Reilly seem to be doing flourishing businesses. They are active businessmen and always keep on hand a full stock of everything.6/2/1883 James Reilly is building a large addition to his house in Hamilton. He is also putting a large corral opposite his store on Main St. "Jeems" is a live man and evidently has faith in White Pine's future.<br /><br /><strong>THE MURDER:</strong><br /><br />Reports have it that Ja. Reilly has sold his store and stables to Sam Paul. They are taking inventory the first of the week.3/4/1886 Homicide at Hamilton, James Reilly shot and killed instantly by S. F. Paul Thursday afternoon. There was quite an excitement here when an Indian courier brought the news of the shooting and killing of James Reilly by S.F. Paul, which occurred Wednesday afternoon. The particulars we get of the affray are very meager, but it is pretty certain the difficulty which ended so sadly grew out of business relations between the men. The following letter to Justice Carpenter, brother-in-law of the deceased, is all we know about it: Hamilton April 1, 6 P. M.<br />FRIEND CARPENTER: Sam Paul shot and killed James Reilly yesterday afternoon. the family is in a terrible fix and want you here as soon as you can come. The row started in the store and Sam shot him once, when Reilly run out, and Sam shot twice while Reilly was in the street. Reilly ran about 30 yards below the corner of his corral and fell dead. He was hit twice. One bullet struck near the lower rib, on the left side, and came out four inches above the left nipple in the center of the breast. This is as the street talk has it.<br />AARON CAMPTON.Mr. Reilly has been an old-time merchant of Hamilton, and Sam F. Paul, now one of our County Commissioners, has lived here and on Treasure Hill since 1869, and has always borne the reputation of a good and peaceable citizen.31 March 1886 Document--Coroner's Inquest was held with sworn witnesses--into the cause of death of James Reilly.....do find that he came to his death on the 31st day of March, 1886, about three O'clock P.M. in the afternoon in the Town of Hamilton....from the effects of gunshot wounds inflicted by a pistol in the hands of Samuel F. Paul. Coroner Warrant issues and S. F. Paul was taken into custody.4/10/1886 S.F. Paul is confined in the county jail pending the action of the Grand Jury, being held without bail. It is said he is utterly prostrated.17 April 1886 Hon. O. H. Grey of Cherry Creek is retained for the prosecution in the Paul case. Billy Paul, a well known resident of Hamilton, but for several years a sojourner to the north, returned Saturday on hearing of his father's trouble.It is singular, though we learn it is a fact, that with all the legal ability at the county seat, no post mortem was held on the body of the late James Reilly. 4/24/1886 Criticized Adversely--There is much adverse criticism in this section over the indictment brought against S.F. Paul (manslaughter instead of murder) , and many say the Grand Jury have invaded the province of the trial jury in determining the degree of the crime. We have never heard of such an indictment before being brought in this state, though it is done in other states, and we presume the action of the Grand Jury is perfectly legal, as the gentlemen composing that body are among the best posted in the county. If it were otherwise, the Court would not have entertained it. Justice to the Dead Our Hamilton correspondent, in giving the military record of the late James Reilly, says, I think it no more than justice that the fact should be printed as they are in black and white. The legion of Honor furnished him with a $75 casket, or at least telegraphed the Eureka Post to furnish one of that value. I was a very fine metallic casket, which could have been soddered (sic), if so desired. His emblem of membership with said order, except for that portion which they require to be kept, was placed over his breast. Benjamin Levy of Eureka is busily engaged at the present time in going over the books at the Reilly store building. James Reilly, lately deceased, who was buried here under the auspices of the Legion of Honor, was a member of that order in New York, whom upon notification, telegraphed to the Post in Eureka, who provided his remains with a fine metallic casket. Mr. Reilly served in the 91st N.Y. Regiment; was commissioned second-lieutenant by Gov. Horatio Seymour, Feb. 25, 1863, dating back to December 31, 1862, and as First lieutenant, (by same Gov.) June 13, 1864, dating back to January 13, 1864; was commissioned as Captain by Gov. Reuben E. Fenton, May 11, 1865, dating back to March 2, 1865.1 May 1886 Book 288-277, James Reilly Estate granted to widow, Mrs. E. E. Reilly. "on the west side of Main St., Hamilton, lot #15, block #6.5/1/1886 Mrs. Reilly was appointed administratrix of the estate of James Reilly, deceased.State of Nevada Vs. S. F. Paul--Indicted by the Grand Jury for manslaughter. Admitted to bail in the sum of $5,000. 21 May 1887 The jury in the case of State vs. S. F. Paul brought in a verdict of "Not Guilty" which was received with rejoicing both in the courtroom and on the streets.<br /><br /><strong>TWO MARRAGES</strong><br /><br />The following depositions are the result of an investigation into the request for Civil War Survivor Pension for the Nevada surviving children of James Reilly, which after several years was finally denied, since no divorce from first wife could be proven, and children deemed illegitimate were not eligible.8 August 1902 - See Deposition from Catherine Cassidy. She was 59, brother James was 4 years older 8 August 1902 - See Deposition from Garrett Reilly8 August 1902 - See Deposition from Mary Kline (Mary E. Soper Riley) Akin, Montgomery County, NY, age 63, Marriage certificate as above, Spelling of name---Riley until move to California.12 April 1902 - See Deposition of Una Reilly, Bay City, Michigan12 April 1902 - See Deposition of George Reilly, Bay City, Michigan Document ---1980 letters from Toni Reilly, granddaughter of either James, Garrett or Harvey First, "poet John Boyle O'Reilly came to U.S. in 1830", then during the uprising and famine her grandfather, my great grandfather, came over with his brother Albert. Albert left for Australia and was never heard from again. I think she may be a generation off, and certainly off on the "poet". She is also off on the Doyle-Reilly sequence of events. Her father died when he was 46. He was recorder and auditor of White Pine County, also manager of Ely Record. Newspaper. With documents I have gathered I cannot rely on any of her information as being accurate.Alan Caslinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16939561259084352769noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642816766964629442.post-68508528477655662722009-04-16T18:35:00.000-04:002018-05-09T18:35:48.067-04:00Casline Family - Alan's Versionmaybe this blog will unlock the treasure chest of Casline Family data that exists.
