Brother pays tribute to late Marine

Marine Corps Birthday Ben Fogletto

Nick Clemente of Philadelphia, left, and Tun Tavern owner Monty Dahm unveil William Dahm's Marine uniform at the Tavern in Atlantic City on November 10 2013. The Tun Tavern paid tribute to William C. Dahm -- brother of owner Monty Dahm -- a decorated Staff Sergeant in the US Marine Corps who recently died from cancer, by unveiling his uniform at its annual Marine Corps Birthday Party.

 

Monday, November 11, 2013 By ELISA LALA, Staff Writer

Monty Dahm, a former U.S. Marine and the owner of Tun Tavern in Atlantic City, hosted a 238th Marine Corps birthday celebration at his restaurant Sunday evening.

Dahm holds the event every year, but this year it included a ceremony for his late-brother, William C. Dahm, a U.S. Marine Corps staff sergeant who died of cancer in June at age 54.

William Dahm's uniforme was unveiled to an audience of Marines. It's framed and now hangs on the wall of the restaurant.

Monty Dahm said his brother enlisted in the Marine Corps at age 18 and served his four years without going to war. But when he was in his late 40s, the staff sergeant called Monty one day and said, "Guess where I'm going? Ahmadi, Iraq. I'm going to go fight for our country."

William Dahm went to active duty in both Iraq and Afghanistan and received several war medals, Monty Dahm said. He also worked for the Pentagon on classified civilian missions.

"He fought in the war in Iraq. He fought in the war in Afghanistan, and unfortunately, he lost the biggest war," Monty Dahm said. "This is my way to honor his life, for all of us to honor his life and his service to our country."

IFIB chooses William C. Dahm as senior advisor

The Iraqi Foreign Investment Board is pleased to welcome William Dahm as its senior advisor. Dahm brings more than 20 years of experience to the IFIB, most notably as a vice president and senior vice president with several major international institutions.

Dahm recently returned from Iraq, where he helped develop an extensive economic redevelopment plan for the war-torn nation, specifically the Anbar province that includes Ramadi and Habbaniya.

“I understand the complexity of Iraq’s economic situation and the people there,” Dahm said. “The potential is enormous, and I believe Iraq’s economy can be developed as a model for the world to admire.”

The IFIB’s mission is to assemble private sector investors from around the world to help facilitate the development of Iraq. The IFIB is tasked with developing strategies to attract inward private sector investment into Iraq, mobilizing domestic capital resources for growth and innovation while marketing the business benefits of Iraq and assisting local companies in identifying joint-venture partners.

            Pvt.  Co. G. 58 Rgt. Indiana Volunteers

Samantha  Slater Shumway 1828-October 4, 1919

She was the fourth wife of  Perry Denson,  the widow of Winslow Shumway. They were married May 28, 1894 by John A. Codding Justice of the Peace.   Perry came to Tuscarora Township in 1894. 

            John Shumway  1865 - 1890 (March 20)

            William Shumway 1852 - 1870

 

These two Shumway children are sons of Winslow  and Samantha Shumway were  alleged  to be removed from  Ackley Cemetery,  Spring Hill Cemetery by order of exhumation permit.  The date they were moved was May 13, 1915.  I am not actually positive that they were  not ¨

removed  from Beaver Meadows and taken to the Spring  Hill  Ceme­tery.   However  there is now a headstone at Beaver  Meadows for them.

* Historians note:  Perry Denson died of natural causes, probably acute Brights disease.  It was first believed that his housekeep­er  Mrs. Decker murdered him.  The poor lady spent about 6  weeks in jail until the autopsy report came back. The home was near where the large tree in the Milton "Skeet" Repsher home is now in 2015

*  Historians note regarding the lot:  A man supposedly  dug  his own grave, then shot himself.  I do not know who he was, but  too many know about it to be false! Glenn Bennett the long time historian of the area shared this tid bit.

Glenn Bennett reports that he was quite a colorful character. His family jokes that his photo is  on the most wanted list. The story goes around that he was involved in the counterfeiting of quarters in Beaver Meadows. He used to have Clark Brotzman, go to the store and buy him chew (tobacco) and pay with those quarters. If anyone was going to get caught, it wasn’t going to be him! His partner in crime was another relative, James Culver, who died in 1922. Both got away with their crimes. A story comes down through the family that Leroy sold the recipe for the Ludens Cough drops to the Luden Company. That gave him some cash. However, the story also goes that he stole the formula from his half brother's wife. The recipe of Louanna Cobb Brown found in a recipe book belonging to Susie Bond Pickett could support this. Carol has what may be the only copy of a handwritten Ladies Aide of Beaver Meadows Cookbook with favorite recipes of the local ladies. The book is not dated. So much for this colorful character! If anyone has stories to share about him, We’d love to hear them.

Her mother was Nancy Bennett daughter of Harriet A. Jeston and William N. Bennett. She married first to Ruel "Jeremiah" Hall and second to Levi Bennett.

 

In the 1900 Tuscarora Township Directory, Orlando is shown to have a West Auburn, Susquehanna County, address on r5 and is a farmer with 50 acres.

 

The 1900 Tuscarora Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania census, at household 2,2, shows Orlando (45 yrs) a farmer, Salina E. (35 yrs) and son Ninnion (13 yrs) living on the farm.  Salina's mother Nancy F. Bennett (remarried name) is living with them.  She is now age 68.  Her husband, Ruel J. died in 1885.  The census shows that Nancy was married for 41 years and gave birth to 4 children, one of whom died.  Nancy's mother had been born in Connecticut.

 

The 1907 Tuscarora Township Directory lists mother-in-law Nancy still living at the farm and shows her as widow of Jerry hall.  Orlando's listed as bds rfd 35 Laceyville which implies the mother-in-law may own the farm and he is still listed as a farmer.  The farm is 20 acres.  Living nearby is T.F. Hall rfd 36, Issac Hall, also rfd 35, Frank Hall, rfd 36, and Andie Hall, also at rfd 35.

Harry married second to Lois Johnson.  They were the parents of four children: John, Charles, Harry and Gerald.   It is not known where Lois is buried.

Harry was the son of William and Imogene Brown Herman.

 

Historians note: It appears that Harry was murdered, some say suicide.  His decayed body was found near the Waterman cemetery in a cabin. The body showed evidence that a hot stove poker had been shoved down his throat! Suicide, I don't believe. He had money stolen from him too!

One Hundred Years Ago in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania collected from local newspapers of 100 years ago June 06 (1901/2001)

RUSH - Friend Avis is suffering from the effects of a runaway accident, near Beaver Meadows. The harness broke, the horse ran, and he was thrown out and hurt on [the] head and shoulder. The accident occurred about 9 o'clock and he lay for 2 1/2 hours in a dazed condition; he finally recovered sufficiently to get to Mr. Huckabone's nearby, who took him in and attended to his needs. He was chilled very much and a good fire and wraps were needed; in the morning Mr. Huckabone took him home. They found the horse at the foot of Blakeslee mountain entirely stripped of harness; the carriage was entirely demolished, but the harness was attached to the running gear near where they found the horse.

Mr. Clyde Sink LaFrance, 95, of Laceyville, PA, passed away unexpectedly Tuesday, April 29, 2008, at the PhysicianCare Office in Meshoppen, with his devoted wife, Roberta (Robinson) LaFrance, at his side. The son of Levi and Bessie Sink LaFrance, he was born on Aug. 29, 1912 at Retta, PA. Raised on a farm in West Auburn, he later was employed at Vandervort Mills of Laceyville, then at GLF, also of Laceyville, which became Agway. He retired from Agway after more than 30 years of service. Even after retirement, he was an avid fisherman and hunter, who at the age of 95, bagged his deer on the second day of the season. He also took great pride in his garden, which was admired and enjoyed by many. He enjoyed his grandchildren and great-grandchildren and will be greatly missed by his entire family. He was a member of the Braintrim Baptist Church in Laceyville, for many years. Survivors, in addition to his wife, the former Roberta Robinson, of 66 years, include a daughter, Lelia Drake and son-in-law, Thomas of Lake Winola; a son, David LaFrance and daughter-in-law, Bonnie of Newville, a daughter, Ferne Yost and son-in-law, Carroll of Stillwater; his eight grandchildren, Jared Yost of Berwick, Heather (Tim) Hostetter of Nescopeck, Jason Cashmark and fianceé Ashley Rak-Lewis of Camarillo, CA, Justin (Jana) Yost of Bloomsburg, Deanna, Tricia, Daniel and Adrienne LaFrance, all of Newville; step-granddaughters, Amy and Theresa Drake of Factoryville, and six great-grandchildren, Hannah, Lauren and Chloe Yost, Madysen and Lyndzey Hostetter and Colin Rak. He is also survived by a brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Ed and Letha Robinson of Middletown, as well as many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his four sisters, Genevieve Ace, Pauline Tewksbury, Vergie Green and Alice Fuhrey. At his request, there will be no viewing. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, May 3 at 11 a.m. at the Braintrim Baptist Church in Laceyville, with Rev. Tom Davis of the church officiating. Interment will be in the Beaver Meadows Cemetery immediately following the service. Arrangements were made through the Sheldon Funeral Home, Main St., Laceyville.

The children of Perry and Alma Rought Lee were Paul, who was born about 1920, Jay W., and Ester. The parents separated. The children stayed with their mother, then entered into foster care upon her death. Perry went to live with the Jake Brotzman family. He married about 1940 to Rosa Chilson, LeRoy "Roy" Lee's ex wife. They had three children Susie, Pete and Joe Lee. When Perry passed the Brotzman's buried him in their lot in the Lacey Street cemetery. What happened to Rosa, I have no idea.
