to Meet Us in St. Louis
Note: Convention Dates Have Changed Slightly
By Kathy Ogle and Tim Ogle
The dedication ceremony and
unveiling of the marker to honor one
of the St. Louis area’s earliest pioneers,
CAPT Joseph Ogle, will take place
on Saturday, September 26, 2015,
just prior to the official opening of
our 2015 O/OFA convention. So, to
accommodate this fantastic addition
to our plans, we are going to shorten
our official convention dates by
one day. The specifics are still being
discussed, but our agenda will look
something like this:
Saturday, September 26, 2015
• Morning: Have breakfast at the
Drury Inn, then meet up about
10:00 AM to carpool to the O’Fallon
Historical Museum. Have lunch in
O’Fallon, then visit the Three Springs
Revival area before congregating for
the dedication.
• 2:00 to 4:00 PM: Dedication
ceremony in Shiloh (about 30 minutes
southeast of the hotel). Details
to come. You can meet us at the
dedication location if you arrive too
late for the additional museum visit.
Sunday, September 27, 2015
Optional tours. Details to come. There
is so much to do in the area, we simply
can’t decide what to offer! But you can
rest assured that it will be great.
Monday, September 28, 2015
We will officially open the
convention and begin meetings about
9:00 AM. We’ll break for lunch, then
resume meetings until about 4:00 PM,
leaving plenty of time for the 5:30 PM
Kickback, offered by the Drury Inn.
Tuesday, September 29, 2015
Same schedule as Monday.
Wednesday, September 30, 2015
Meetings will be held in the morning,
ending around noon. This will give the
hotel time to set up for our Farewell
Dinner. Dinner will start at about
7:00 PM and will include a great
meal and entertainment by a local
Barbershop Quartet (members of the
Ogle family, of course). This will end
the official portion of the convention a
day earlier than previously announced.

The St. Louis area has so many Oglerelated sites that it will be impossible
for us to visit all of them as a group.
We will try to arrange as many as
we can—details to come. Perhaps
you can reserve time to visit these on
your own if we don’t go as a group.
We’ll keep working on compiling
a complete list—including GPS
coordinates, etc.—and have that
available at the convention check-in.

Book Review: “The History of Worthy Park
House” by Wendy Osborne
by Jim Ogle and Shirley Willard
Worthy Park House is a school
for young children located in
Winchester, Hampshire, UK.
The book is 6x8 inches, with
a soft cover. It has 40 pages,
including the covers. What
makes this book interesting
from an Ogle standpoint is that
the property was purchased
in 1752 by Lord and Lady
Kingston (second marriage for
both).
Lady Kingston was born Isabella
Ogle (1712–1761) to Nathaniel
Ogle, MD, (1674–1739) and
Elizabeth Newton at Kirkley
Hall, Ogle, Northumberland.
The book contains biographies,
portraits and illustrations, and
a family tree beginning with
Nathaniel Ogle and Elizabeth
Newton. Portraits include Sir
Chaloner Ogle and his sister
Hester Jane Sheridan, as well as
Sir Charles Ogle.
This is a valuable history of
the Ogle family. You can order
the book by contacting Wendy
Osborne at pinksugarfish@
gmail.com. Purchase price
is five British pounds (about
$7.50), and she accepts PayPal.

Honoring CAPT Joseph Ogle (1737–1821)
By James F. “Jim” Engler, Sr.
This is to Certify that John McCullough Servd as a Soldier in my Company three Months in the Summer
Season at Vanmetres Mill & the Beach Bottom in the year 1777
Given under my Hand this 4 Day of April 1785
—Joseph Ogle, Capt.
With these few words (now
in the Draper Collection), we
can imagine that Joseph Ogle,
a resident of Ohio County,
Virginia (now West Virginia),
finished one remaining
request of a neighbor and
comrade-in-arms before
closing one chapter of his life
and opening another, turning
his face to the West.
Joseph Ogle had been
raised in Frederick County,
Maryland (which at the
time included the modern
counties of Frederick,
Montgomery, Washington,
Alleghany, Garret, and part
of Carroll), either being
born there or coming there
as a small child. He met his
future wife there, married
there, and had children there
before migrating further west
in 1769 to an area of Ohio
County known as Buffalo
Creek (now located in Brooke
County, West Virginia).
That he was well-respected
and considered a leader of
men is evidenced by his
election by his neighbors
and the later confirmation
on January 2, 1777, by
Gov. Patrick Henry to the
rank of Captain, in charge
of a company of Virginia
militia during the American
Revolution. He had already
served as a Lieutenant in
the militia just over two
years earlier during Lord
Dunmore’s War and was
present at the Battle of Point
Pleasant (on October 10,
1774, now in West Virginia),
considered by some to be
the first engagement of the
American Revolution. He
would survive two close calls
during the Indian attacks in
the first and second sieges of
Fort Henry (at what is now
Wheeling, West Virginia) and
demonstrated considerable
courage in each event. He
suffered the deaths first of a
brother, Jacob, then his wife
Prudence, and then another
brother, Thomas, before the
war was over, his brothers
both dying in battle.
After the peace was won,
stories of the new lands to
the West certainly must
have been the topic of
conversation in the cabins
and settlements of his area.
George Rogers Clark had
wrested what would become
known as the Old Northwest
Territory (modern day Ohio,
Indiana, Michigan, Illinois,
and Wisconsin) from British
occupation and many of his
soldiers, including neighbors
and in-laws of Joseph, went
to settle there. Joseph’s late
wife’s sister and her husband,
James Moore, were some
of the first to settle there in
1782, and by 1785, Joseph
must have decided that the
lands of the Illinois Country
beckoned with promise. In
April 1785, he headed for
Pittsburgh to get a raft and
provisions. While waiting
for it to all be gathered, he
helped the locals deal with
an Indian attack. With the
raft and supplies ready, he
headed down the Ohio,
either with his second wife,
Jemima, and his family in tow
or waiting for his arrival at
their home. Before the end of
that April, they had survived
the dangerous currents of the
Ohio, landed in Illinois, and
worked their way over land
to the settlements known
as the American Bottom,
just opposite the Spanishcontrolled town of St. Louis
on the Mississippi.
The next 10 years would

This small cemetery is hard to
find, so be sure you get good
directions.
“ST. Louis is home
to many great
attractions, several
of which are less
than 10 miles from
the Drury Inn.”
3. O’Fallon, Illinois,
Cemetery. This large cemetery
is the burial site of several
of the children of Drusilla
Andrews Mace (1783–1863),
the granddaughter of Jacob
Ogle and great niece of CAPT
Joseph Ogle and the sole
survivor of an Indian Massacre
in Monroe County. She and
her husband were among
O’Fallon’s earliest pioneers.
4. Shiloh Cemetery in Shiloh,
Illinois. This city cemetery
is directly across from Shiloh
Methodist Church. It’s the
location of the dedication
ceremony for the marker for
CAPT Joseph Ogle and the site
of Three Springs Revival. The
first Methodist meetings were
held in Illinois in the 1790s.
5. Palmier Cemetery in
Columbia, Illinois. This is a
fairly large cemetery with at least
two Ogles buried in it. This
cemetery is located on land that
CAPT Joseph Ogle received
for his service during the
Revolutionary War and that was
donated by CAPT Joseph and
Benjamin Ogle in the 1790s,
and it features a beautiful view of
the surrounding area.
6. Miles Cemetery near
Columbia, Illinois. This has
probably a couple hundred
grave sites. James Garretson
is buried there. I believe he is
one of Jim Engler’s GGGG
grandfathers. This cemetery
features a beautiful view of the
surrounding area.
7. Lemen Monument and
gravesite in Waterloo,
Illinois. This gravesite is on
private property and is very
hard to find. It includes 16
graves. It’s located on property
owned by James Lemen in
the 1780s and is the location
of the first brick home in
Illinois (then called Northwest
Territory). This was also the
first meeting place for the
Baptist congregation in Illinois.
http://monroe.illinoisgenweb.
org/lemen/lemen.html
8. New Design Historical
Cemetery in Monroe County,
Illinois (town of New Design,
Illinois). This town was
founded by James Lemen and
CAPT Joseph Ogle in the
1780s. It is the original site
of the building of the first
Baptist Church in Illinois.
This is a large cemetery with
many descendants of Katherine
Ogle Lemen (daughter of
CAPT Joseph Ogle and wife
of James Lemen). http://www.

Genealogy Research Facilities
Below is a partial list of
great locations for genealogy
research. Visit each website
and/or call for hours and
specific location information.
1. St. Louis Public Library
in downtown St. Louis
(about a 10-minute drive
from the Drury Inn). The
large genealogy department
includes microfilm of St. Louis
newspapers and obituaries and
copies of death certificates,
etc. http://www.slpl.org/slpl/
library/article240098545.asp
2. St. Louis County Library
on Lindbergh Blvd. (about
a 20-minute drive from the
Drury). Has several different
types of resources. One floor
is dedicated to history and
genealogy and is funded by the
St. Louis Genealogy Society.
http://www.slcl.org/genealogy
3. Mercantile Library at
University of Missouri at
St. Louis (near the airport).
Includes records of early maps
original to St. Louis. http://
www.umsl.edu/mercantile/
4. O’Fallon Historical Society
Museum (near O’Fallon
Cemetery). Allow about an
hour to tour the main museum.
They also have a collection
of newspaper clippings and
photographs important to
descendants of CAPT Joseph
Ogle. If you want to see these,
call ahead to arrange it. Several
of their members have been
invaluable in planning the
convention. The museum
operates on donations only.
http://www.ofallonhistory.net/
5. Morrison-Talbot Library
in Waterloo, Illinois (often
called Waterloo Library).
Has a genealogy department
with lots of information about
the James Lemen family.
In addition to traditional
records, their “file cabinets”
contain printed material
(family histories, handwritten
notes, newspaper articles,
etc.) on various Monroe
County families. http://
waterloolibrary.org/
6. Belleville Library in
Belleville, Illinois. The
archives and genealogy section
is located on the second floor
Page 5
and maintains an impressive
genealogical collection for St.
Clair and the surrounding
counties. There are many
connections with the James
Lemen family. Much of their
collection is digitized and can
be researched online. http://

Attractions Near the Hotel
St. Louis is home to many great
attractions, several of which
are less than 10 miles from the
Drury Inn. Attractions include
Anheuser-Busch Brewery (6
miles); Busch Stadium, Home
of the Cardinals (6 miles) home
games September 21–27, visit
www.cardinals.com; Forest
Park/St. Louis Zoo (1 mile);
Fox Theatre (4 miles); Galleria
Mall (5 miles); Gateway Arch
(6 miles); Grant’s Farm (7
miles); Historic Union Station
(6 miles); Missouri Botanical
Gardens (2 miles); and St. Louis
Art Museum (1 mile). Learn
more at www.druryhotels.com.
Getting There
The Drury Inn offers free
parking for guests. For those
who are flying, be aware that
the St. Louis airport is about
15 miles from the hotel, and
the hotel doesn’t have a shuttle
service. You may rent a car, take
a cab, or use a shuttle service.
There are plenty of activities
and dining options within
walking distance of the hotel, so
if you don’t have activities other
than the convention planned,
you probably don’t need a car.
We will be organizing carpools
for the planned convention
activities that require
transportation.
Winter 2014
Taking a cab: We’ve made
arrangements with Laclede
Cab for a discounted flat-fee
fare of $35 per trip to or from
the airport (no charge for
extra passengers). Call them
in advance at 314-652-3456,
mention Tim Ogle, and give
them your name and flight info.
They will track the flight and
meet you at the airport. Their
cabs are solid bright red with
an Arch in their logo. Also call
them in advance to set up a
return trip.
Taking a shuttle: If you prefer
a shuttle (which you may share
with other riders), the hotel
recommends Go Best Shuttle
(www.gobestexpress.com,
314-222-5300). The trip will
cost about $22 one way or $39
round-trip per person (pay for
the round-trip up front and
keep the receipt). You should
call them in advance and
make arrangements. This is a
cheaper alternative for a person
traveling alone, but it won’t be
as convenient or personal as
Laclede Cab.

thousands of visitors a year, the

be eventful for him. Joseph
would see his daughter
Catherine and her husband,
James Lemen, arrive in 1785, as
well as his niece Elizabeth and
her husband, James Andrews.
He would suffer the loss of this
same niece and most of her
family in a massacre in 1787,
and he would ransom from
the Indians through a French
trader her only surviving child,
Drusilla. He’d learn that his
son Benjamin was attacked
and nearly killed by Indians in
1788; Benjamin would carry
the Indian’s musket ball in
his shoulder for the rest of his
life. Joseph was called upon
for and went out on several
expeditions to deal with the
Indian attacks. He would see
many children marry and
have children of their own.
He became the first Methodist
baptized in Illinois in 1787. A
class of believers would look
to him as their leader after he
was appointed by a visiting
preacher in the early 1790s
when no permanent preacher
was available. He donated some
of his land for a cemetery. He
would move again in 1802 to
Horse Prairie and help to build
the Shiloh Methodist Church.
Finally, at 84 years of age, he
died at his farm on February
24, 1821, having lived a rich
and long live.
Just prior to the O/OFA
Convention in St. Louis, on
September 26, 2015, we will
gather to honor this Patriot of
the American Revolution, this
pioneer of Illinois and pillar
of his community and his
church. We will be heading
from the Drury Inn that
Saturday morning, visiting
several sites across the river
in Illinois, ending up at the
dedication of the marker for
CAPT Joseph Ogle in a plot
donated by St. Clair County,
in the Shiloh Cemetery just
opposite the doors of the
church Joseph helped to
found. We are currently in the
planning stages for the actual
ceremony, but we are hoping
that we will have a color
guard in colonial uniform and
the participation of the local
chapters of the Sons and the
Daughters of the American
Revolution (SAR and DAR).
Won’t you join us? This is a
unique opportunity to learn
about the very early history
of the Ogle family in the area
and to honor a larger-thanlife Ogle, called by some the
“Daniel Boone of Illinois.”

LBATO: An Update
By James F. “Jim” Engler, Sr.
Our Ogle Family Book
Project, Looking Back at the
Ogles (LBATO), continues to
move forward, although it may
seem to have a glacial pace.
Here are some key points to
consider:
• As of August 2014, Volume
1 has sold 231 of the original
300 copies printed. With the
holidays approaching, this
would be a great gift for the
genealogically interested Ogle
in your life.
• We still have about 200 pages
of the Volume 2 draft that
need to be reviewed. In the
process of doing due diligence,
we have discovered a lot of
“new” lines in the covered
branches. We’ve increased the
size of the line of Thomas
“T.O.” Ogle (1751–1818/30)
and his wife, Isabella “Iby”
“Eby” Wilson, by a full 25
percent (we now have 1,317
persons in this line). So far, the
line of his brother John Ogle
(1754–Poss. 1808) and Sarah
Dennis has increased in size
by 23 percent (we now have
6,932 persons in this line).
• Volume 3 is still being
worked on. This line has
increased by 70 percent (to
13,518 descendants) since
Wayne Ogle created a review
copy of this line in 2006.
Growth in our information is a
double-edged sword, as shown
in the chart below. There were
few changes between Wayne
Ogle’s initial 2006 copy of
the Thomas “T.O.” Ogle
branch and the 2010 version,
which was what Wayne had
intended to go to press with
for his original version of
LBATO Volume 1. Since
then, we have filled in many
of the descendants, so we have
a more complete view of the
line. However, this required a
lot of effort. It also indicates
that we can expect this level
of effort on other lines, which
will delay those lines as well.
Anyone who is willing to help
do the research, seeking out
the original sources for other
Ogle lines, would be welcome
and should contact me, Jim
Engler, Acting Editor.
We have had little response
from our members who
descend from the brothers
in Volume 2 regarding early
photos of ancestors in these
lines (pre-1910 photos or
images). If you have such
photos, now is the time to
send me a copy.
The preferred approach is to
scan the photo and send a .jpg
file to [email protected],
but hard copies can be sent to:
2038 Red River Road
Sykesville, MD 21784
Please do not send your
originals. Photographers and
places like Wal-Mart can help
create a copy for you.
