George E. Waters, prominent in Salem business for 50 years and owner of the city's baseball club in the Western International circuit died late Saturday night (19 Oct 1940) following a heart attack. He was 70.
Starting with the loan of $1000 when he was a young man, Waters "soon built up a large wholesale business now operating under the name of George E. Waters Inc.". He was active in Republican politics for many years. He befriended many underprivileged boys and girls.
Survived by his widow; two brothers - Frank Waters and Harry Wayne Waters, both of Salem; sister Mrs. W. C. Knighton of Portland; nephew Frank Northrup Waters of Salem; and niece Louemma Waters Roughton of Portland.

213. Anonymous. 1940. Salem loses sportsman in death of George Waters. Oregonian (Portland, Oregon), 21 Oct 1940: p.Section 3 page 1.
"It is said of Waters that he had purchased thousands of three or four-day old newspapers just to help some newsboy dispose of his wares."
Recently purchased Western International League baseball franchise for Salem, and constructed $60,000 baseball plant, which opened last spring. All youngsters "who complied with certain conditions" (not stated) were admitted free. "An entire bleacher was set aside for these children, known as the 'Knothole club'." The League reportedly balked at the free admissions, so Waters offered to pay the way for any youngster who came. "I don't give a damn if the club never makes a cent. If the people like the club that's all I care."
48 years previously, he and Doug Minto had organized a Salem baseball club. Waters claimed that he and Minto had lost $1500 on the venture in the first season.

214. Anonymous. 1940. Heart attack fatal to George E. Waters. Capital Journal (Salem, Oregon), 21 Oct 1940: p.3.
George E. WATERS, age 70, died in the Salem [OR] General Hospital 19 Oct 1940; had suffered a heart attack at his home a few hours earlier.
A year ago bought a Salem franchise in the Western International Baseball League, build George E. Waters Field, and had a baseball team that proved a strong contender in the league. He started in business in 1891, a wholesale tobacco and candy enterprise with D. C. Minto; Waters became full owner after 4 years. He was married 4 Dec 1905 to Margaret Delphene McGUIRE of Salem; no children
He was b. 16 Nov 1869 Nebraska City, NE, came to Salem, OR with his mother in 1873 when he was 4 years old; his father had come to OR the year previously; George attended old Central School; parents William Henry Harrison WATERS and Elizabeth NORTH WATERS. His father was prominent in politics in NE, serving as registrar of the Nebraska land office. He ran unsuccessfully for the U. S. Senate from NE.

215. Anonymous. 1940. America's Interesting People: George E. Waters.
"George E. Waters is probably the only baseball fan who keeps score on the spectators. Owner of the Salem, Ore., Senators, he sets aside a thousand free bleacher seats for the city's school kids. But before they can get in, they must produce statements by their teachers and parents that they are scoring satisfactorily at school and at home. Otherwise, they pay or watch the game through a knothole. A retired tobacco merchant and lifelong fan, Waters recently spent $60,000 to build a modern baseball stadium seating 9,000 people, to celebrate his team's first year in the Western International League. A nice touch is vertical-grained seats, designed to minimize besplintered posteriors. And to ensure good ball teams for years to come he imported an ex-pitcher for the big leagues to train the local talent. Mr. and Mrs. Waters have no children, but they say one thousand cheering kids are a pretty good substitute."

From Marian Cox: "My husband's Cox family were from Van Buren Co., Ia which is next door to Henry Co. Before that (ca 1820), they were in Jefferson Co, Indiana. We know nothing about before then. I don't think the Henry Co. Coxes were related to the Van Buren Coxes, but of course I could be wrong. We only know of two: Lorenzo Dow Cox b. 1817 and his brother Randolph Cox b.1821 Jefferson Co., Ind. There surely were other siblings. Their father Jesse Cox, was in the Battle of Tippecanoe. This would have been ca 1811. No one knows yet what happened to Jesse except they think he went off to war and didn't come back.

From: William G. Cutler, History of the State of Kansas. Part 12, Labette County.

JULIUS S. WATERS, editor of the Oswego Daily and Weekly Independent, published at Oswego, Kansas. Was born in Warrick County, Ind. March 25, 1838. The country was new at this time, and young Julius had arrived at the age of eleven before he had seen a schoolhouse, and not until the removal of the family to Henry County, Iowa, in 1848, did he enjoy the advantages of the common schools. His mother died when he was but fifteen years of age, by which the family was broken up, and at this early age, with little education and no means, he was cast upon his own resources. For a time he was employed as a farm hand, at four dollars per month. In 1854, he began to learn the trade of harness and saddle making at Galesburg, Ill., at which he was employed about three years. His spare moments were occupied in study and reading, by which his mind underwent cultivation and became stored with useful knowledge. Returning to Indiana in 1857, the next fall, he was made Republican candidate for the Legislature. The county was heavily Democratic and he was defeated in the election. In 1860, he assisted in the organization of his party in Spencer County, to which he had removed,
and was a member of the State Convention appointing delegates to the National Convention which met at Chicago Ill., and put Abraham Lincoln in nomination for the presidency, and was afterward actively engaged in the campaign. He was married in 1860, and continued a resident of Spencer County, Ind., until the death of his wife in 1863, at which time he removed to Nebraska City, Neb., and became engaged as local editor on thePress, a paper published by his brother, W. H. H. Waters, at that place. Removing to Southwest Missouri in 1865, and not being satisfied with the country, he at once came to Kansas, settling upon the Osage Ceded lands in Labette County, where he now owns a fine farm of five hundred acres, upon which he resides. Having studied law, he was admitted to practice when the county was organized, and in which he continued with gratifying success for some years. In the fall of 1869 he was elected to the office of County Attorney, and subsequently was twice elected to the same office. He established a newspaper called the Sentinel at Labette City, in the summer of 1871, which he ran about a year and sold out, and two years afterward became editor of the Oswego
Independent, upon which he is now engaged. He was elected to the State Legislature in 1880, and again in 1882, in which capacity he served with satisfaction to his constituents. He was commissioned a director of the State Penitentiary by Gov. St. John, in April, 1882, and still holds the position. He has been re-married and is the father of an interesting family. He is a man of considerable ability, and figures prominently in politics, and enjoys a wide circle of friends and acquaintances.

The first store established in Salem, Oregon, was started in October 1847 by William Cox. Previously Oregon City was nearest store (70 miles away). The store was apparently a welcome addition, even though the settlers didn't buy too much at stores. On the Looney family's first visit to the store, they bought a variety of cloth and sewing supplies, paid $11.00 in cash, $10.00 in butter, and another $8.85 on credit.

P.12 - "Brothers Joseph and Isaac [COX] came [to Wheatland, NY] in 1804; father Samuel and his family in 1805 or 1806. Joseph located on the west side of the River Road between Oatka Creek and Quaker Road; Isaac on the east side of the River Road opposite his brother. They built a rude log house for their parents and five younger children on the site where Delos Boutwell now lives. Joseph, whose first wife was Dorothy Farwell and second wife was Chloe Agdrich, had six sons and four daughters. Isaac married Anna Shadbolt and had four sons and five daughters. Samuel purchased in 1809 lands on the east and west sides of the River Road which were later included in his son's lands. The closest Cox family descendants who reside in Wheatland are: Barbara Brown Gorton, John W.Brown, Dorothy Smart Paris and Walter J. Cushman, Jr."

On p. 12 there is a photo of a Crotch mahogany secretary that belonged to Isaac Cox, with Flow Blue Staffordshire dishes from the Cox family. It is now in the home of Florence A. Field.

P. 13 - "Joseph Cox was nineteen and Isaac was eighteen when they first arrived in Wheatland. They came in the late winter in the old fashioned long sleigh, turning the box up on edge at night and sleeping in it before the fire, which served secondarily to warm them but primarily to keep the wolves away.
"Bears were still common in the first decade of the nineteenth century and one seized a pig from the pen of Isaac and made off, but Isaac pursued and shot it without puncturing the skin, they being face to face at the critical moment and the shot entering the bear's mouth. The Cox family emigrated from Stillwater, Saratoga County, New York but were originally from Long Island and latterly from Dutchess County."

A photo on page 13 shows a tureen from the Cox family, a small white octagonal vessel with attached base; now owned by the E. Brown family.

P. 31 - RHODA FROST COX, widow of Joseph Cox, came in 1815 to live with son Samuel; died in 1823; descendants are Dorothy Smart Paris and Walter Cushman Jr.

In June, 1864, it gave place to the "Advertiser", published by Fenno & Warren, with Cox as editor; in June, 1865, the name was changed to the "Weekly Advertiser". On August 5 of that year the paper became the property of Cox & Boggs, by whom it was published with the masthead of "The Democratic Review".

Received his primary education in public schools in LaGrande, OR, graduated from high school in Portland. He learned printing and followed that trade until he went to Harney Co. in 1884. He raised cattle until 1899, when he became Burns, OR, postmaster; served for 6 years, then was elected to present (1912) position of Harney County Clerk. He was active in Knights of Pythias.
Edward's father, Abner, came west from Iowa in 1852. He settled first in California, afterwards came to Josephine Co., Oregon, and later to Harrisburg, Linn Co., Oregon. In 1870 he moved to Umatilla County, then to LaGrande, Union County, where he engaged in the stock-raising business for a short time. In 1875 he bought a newspaper, The Statesman, in Salem, Oregon, which he ran for two years. In 1876 he was appointed U. S. Marshall and moved to Portland, but retained his interest in The Statesman. He held the office of Marshall until 1880 and when his term expired was elected State Senator from Multnomah County. He remained in that position until 1884, when he moved to Harney County, where he lived for 19 years. He was admitted to the bar there, and practiced law in Burns from 1884 until 1903 when he was forced to retire due to failing health. He moved to Weiser, Idaho, until 1906 when he died at 73 years of age.

In the N. K. Wilson compilation of Waters information, there is a document entitled, "Resolutions of Condolence," issued by the Greenwood Lodge No. 98, IOOF, under the Grand Lodge of Nebraska. The document eulogizes James Waters, but it is mostly a pageful of lodge platitudes with almost no facts. It doesn't even give his death date. The only facts in the document are that James was born 31 August 1824, and that he was an Odd Fellow for over 20 years. It is noted that a copy of the eulogy was sent to the "Greenwood Eagle."
Note: The family returned a thank you card, signed by Mrs. James Waters and W. S. Waters (their son).

"One of the earliest important industries in Harrisburg was a large flouring mill one mile south of town; had the capacity of about 150 barrels of flour per day. The power to run it came from damming Mill Slough. "The owner of the mill in my day was 'Old Hiram Smith.' I believe that there was also a man named Briggs interestd in it at one time. Flour from the mill was hauled into Harrisburg and stored in warehouses to await the coming of the next river boat. John Waters was the miller there for a long time. Later, Waters removd to Brownsville with his son-in-law, Morelock, and they were operators of the flour mill there."

We have a copy of this in the files, the reminiscences of Delilah Frances Hendershott many years after the fact. It has many known errors, but the info on the McCULLY-WATERS move to southern Oregon seems pretty accurate.
Samuel McCULLY went with Abner WATERS, Mary McCULLY WATERS, and William WATERS to southern Oregon. They had been going to Russian River, CA, but stopped in Josephine Co., OR, and built a log cabin and milk house on Louse Creek, sold butter at Galiceburg but lost $1,100 in the venture. They moved to Kerbyville, OR, where Samuel ran a road house for three years, then moved up Deer Creek with Abner three years, then returned to the Willamette Valley.

263. R. J. Hendricks. 1931. Bits for breakfast [Frank W. WATERS]. Oregon Statesman (Salem, OR), 28(?) Oct 1931:
Cites an advertisement in a newspaper 21 Jan 1878: "Fine Poultry. I have some very fine thoroughbred Light and Dark Brahma and Light and Dark Leghorn Chickens, and am prepared to supply eggs of either kind on short notice. Also Turkey eggs in limited quantity. For particulars and prices apply to or address FRANK W. WATERS, Salem, OR."
Frank Waters, son of W. H. H. WATERS, was 9 years old at the time, "the first importer of standard bred poultry to this section." He apparently did quite well with the business, remembering selling two roosters and a hen for $10.
The Waters home at that time was on Summer St. near Center St. Frank was Mayor of Salem 1905-1907, later was in the abstract business for a long time; currently (Oct 1931) working for his brother George E.WATERS in his wholesale tobacco business at 229 State Street, Salem.

Spring 1849, with his brother and Edward Ford, joined a train of 22 wagons to CA; arrived Sacramento 7 Aug 1849; broke his leg on the way, which made it hard for him to do much mining, so he hired to drive a team between Hangtown (=Placerville) and Sacramento for two months; spent the winter at Mud Springs (=Eldorado), where brother William died; spring 1850, bought a team and went to Redding's Diggings; Jan 1853, took a ship from San Francisco to OR; stayed around Harrisburg until 1858, then went to Josephine Co. and farmed for a year; returned to Harrisburg where he and Jack Hall purchased an old mill; in 1862 Hall sold out to Asa McCULLY, and Asa and John kept operating the mill muntil 1877, when John sold out and moved to Brownsville, where he purchased an interest in the Brownsville flour mill.

271. A. V. D. Honeyman. 1914. Notes on the Vosseller Family. Somerset County Historical Quarterly III
Jacob FUSLER,FUSSELLER/VOSSELLER, came from Germany prior to 1750, settled at Schoharie County, New York, then emigrated to New Jersey near Pluckemin. About 1751, he married Margaret TEEPLE, daughter of Lucas TEEPLE of Pluckemin.
Lucas TEEPLE died ca 1 Jan 1774. His will is dated 20 Aug 1764, with a codicil 16 Nov 1773, and probated 26 Jan 1774 (Trenton Wills, Book L, p. 85). In the main will he mentions as his heirs his eldest son John; his sons Christopher and Peter; his daughter Ursula, wife of John APPLEMAN; and "my son-in-law, Jacob Fusler." Also, a son-in-law John Meyer. "A possible inference from this will is that Margaret Teeple, Vosseller's wife, was deceased when the will was made."
"Teeple's codicil of 1773... states the interesting and unusual circumstance that Lucas Teeple had four grandchildren named 'Luke,' viz: sons of Christopher, Peter and John Teeple, and son of 'Jacob Fusler.'"
