| 25851 | The records on this page came from books kept by the Monroe County Veteran's Service Agency in order to locate graves and be able to place flags on the veteran's grave. Each book contains many small forms with data on each veteran burial. There is varying amounts of data on the veteran on these forms. Some only have death date while others include birth, death, enlistment and discharge dates and locations. Whatever is listed on the forms is included on this page. It appears that the veteran records were not updated after 1976. The "Division" block on the form was used by the veteran's organization as a method of separating the the County into sections for those placing flags. | Source (S344)

| 25852 | The Seal Beach shooting was a mass shooting that occurred on October 12, 2011, at the Salon Meritage hair salon in Seal Beach, California. Eight people inside the salon and one person in the parking lot were shot, and only one victim survived. It was the deadliest mass killing in Orange County history.[2] On Wednesday, October 12, 2011 at 1:21 p.m. PDT (20:21 UTC), police responded to reports of shots fired at the Salon Meritage hair salon at 500 Pacific Coast Highway.[3][4] The alleged shooter was armed with three handguns, and reloaded at least once during the attack, which lasted two minutes.[1][5][6] There were about twenty people in the salon at the time, some managing to escape by running into the street or hiding in neighboring businesses.[7][8] Six people were declared dead at the scene, and three survivors were taken to a hospital where two of them later died of their wounds.[9] Police later named the weapons used in the shooting as a 9mm Springfield XD, a .45-caliber Heckler & Koch HK45, and a Smith & Wesson .44 magnum.[1] The alleged shooter's former wife, Michelle Fournier, one of the employees at the salon, was also one of the victims.[10] The suspect in the shooting, named by police as 41-year-old[11] Scott Evans Dekraai of Huntington Beach, California, was arrested without incident after being stopped while driving a white pickup truck about one half mile (0.8 km) from the scene of the crime.[8][12] Dekraai was wearing body armor at the time of his arrest.[13] The incident was the worst shooting spree in Orange County since the Fullerton massacre in July 1976, in which seven people died.[14] There had been only one murder in Seal Beach during the previous four years.[15] A candlelight vigil was held in the evening of the next day for the victims of the shooting.[16] A fund set up to aid victims of the shooting raised around $400,000.[17] Sandi Fannin, the widow of the owner, stated that a remodeled version of the salon would open with the same name and in the same location during summer 2012.[18] [edit] Victims The shooting left six women and two men dead, with a lone woman survivor: Victoria Buzzo, 54, who worked at the salon[19] David Caouette, 64, died after being shot in his Land Rover Discovery parked outside the salon. Caouette was the final victim, and was shot through the front windshield and passenger window of his vehicle. He had been visiting the restaurant next to the salon.[20][21] Randy Lee Fannin, 62, the owner of Salon Meritage; according to eyewitnesses, he was the first person to be shot. He reportedly said to the gunman: "Please don't do this. There's another way. Let's go outside and talk."[22][23][24] Michelle Daschbach Fast, 47, a customer who was having her hair styled at the salon[25] Michelle Marie Fournier, 48, who worked as a hair stylist at the salon and was the ex-wife of shooting suspect Scott Dekraai[26] Lucia Bernice Kondas, 65, a customer who was having her hair styled at the salon[27] Laura Webb,[28] 46, worked at the salon and was doing her mother's hair at the time of the incident; her mother, Hattie Stretz, 73, was shot and critically injured[29] Christy Lynn Wilson, 47, who worked at the salon[30] Hattie Stretz, 73, was critically injured, but survived the shooting, and was released from the hospital on October 17. She was a customer having her hair done by her daughter, Laura Webb, one of the stylists who died in the shooting.[31] Sandy Fannin, co-owner of the salon and widow of the slain Randy Fannin, was on the premises at the time of the shooting but survived unharmed by hiding at the back of the property.[23][32] [edit] The suspect Booking photo of Scott Evans Dekraai, taken soon after his arrest. Scott Evans Dekraai, 41, divorced his wife Michelle in 2007 after four years of marriage. Court records showed that he had been engaged in a bitter custody dispute over his eight-year-old son. His personality was said to have changed after an accident on board a tugboat in February 2007, which left him with serious leg injuries. Following an incident later in 2007 involving his stepfather, a restraining order was filed against him, barring him from possessing firearms. The order lasted a year and had expired at the time of the shooting. Court documents filed in September 2008 diagnosed him with posttraumatic stress disorder. A court hearing had taken place on Tuesday, October 11, 2011, the day before the shooting, which recommended a near-equal custody arrangement.[33][34][35] [edit] Prosecution Orange County District Attorney Tony Rackauckas announced on October 14, 2011, that Dekraai would be charged with eight counts of murder with special circumstances, and one of attempted murder. He also indicated that his office would seek the death penalty.[36] In a news conference following the shooting, Rackauckas said: "For almost two minutes, Dekraai shot victim after victim, executing eight people by shooting them in the head and chest. He was not done. He then walked out of the salon and shot a ninth victim, a male, who was sitting nearby in a parked Range Rover."[1] In an affidavit submitted to police, Dekraai said that he first shot his ex-wife multiple times on entering the salon, contradicting the view of eyewitnesses that salon owner Randy Fannin was the first victim. Dekraai said that on the morning of the shooting, he had argued with his ex-wife over the telephone, causing him to consider killing her. He also said that David Caouette - an apparently random victim sitting in his parked car outside the salon - had been shot because he thought that he was "an off-duty or undercover police officer".[37] Dekraai's arraignment took place on November 29, 2011, at which he entered a plea of not guilty.[38] The provisional start date for the trial has been given as October 15, 2012. | Daschbach, Michelle (I183571)

| 25865 | There were seven boys and six girls in the John and Teresa Heil Hohman family from Fulda, Ohio. Their sixth and seventh children were twin girls, Eulalia and Bernetta, born on October 14, 1908. Bernetta grew up in a home where prayer was important and God was the focus of their family life. As a young girl, she knew about the Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity of Manitowoc [Wisconsin]. One of the Sisters, Sister Felicitas, used to come to the Hohman home begging for funds. Bernetta recalled how her mother would give Sister the last dollars she had in her purse. This made an impression on the youngster. Another person who inspired Bernetta was her mother's sister, Sister Majella Heil [Mary Heil], who was also a Manitowoc Franciscan. Sister Majella and her companions would visit the Hohman home. Everyone loved her! Bernetta's sister Mary, who was six years older had already entered the Holy Family Convent. This was another sign for Bernetta and she started thinking that perhaps religious life must be a good thing after all. Putting her future in God's hands, Bernetta entered Holy Family Convent on Jun 9, 1925 at age 16. She was received into the community novitiage as Sister Cordia -- a name meaning "heart" for the Sacred Heart of Jesus. (It is not known when Sister began spelling her name "Cordea" rather than the Latin version.) Sister Cordea received a B.A. from St. Norbert College and was involved in the education ministry until shortly before her death. Sister served in Wisconsin, Michigan, Arizona, Delaware, Ohio, and Chicago. She enjoyed her work and was a challenging teacher. She was a conscientious person, well organized, and provided students with many opportunities to learn at their old pace. She helped many Sisters who went out teaching for the first time. She was generous, supported, and very devoted to Catholic education. Her work ethic, kindness and attitude were an example for others. Many young sister teachers looked up to her for guidance as well as for inspiration in living their religious lives. Sister Cordea was a very modest person, not inclined to boast about herself. It was learned from conversations with others that Sister was recognized for her outstanding service at St. Nicholas School in Zanesville, and that her name had been inscribed on a plaque that hung in the main hall of the school building. In this same vein, it was revealed that on the occasion of her 50th jubilee of religious profession, she had been congratulated by the Ohio Senate for her outstanding contributions to the people of God, and last, but not least, was the medallion and certificate she received for her faithful service at the closing of St. Charles Lwanga School, Chicago. In 1987, Sister Cordea joined the staff at St. Charles Lwanga School in Chicago's inner city. She worked hard tutoring students and giving them the individual attention they needed to succeed. She dearly loved her years at St. Charles Lwanga. Sister Cordea, as Father Jadin said in his homily, suffered from cancer for 25 years. Pain and loss that cam Sister's way may perhaps have been the biggest challenge to her faith. Besides her own personal suffering, losing Sister Benita Marie in 1992 (her sister) was very painful. It was this older sister who comforted Sister Cordea when she first learned she had cancer. Yet Jesus' resurrection glory did not call Sister Cordea away from these realities, but enabled her to face them. During the last few years her strength seemed to be overly taxed, yet her cheerful spirit remained. When she came to the Motherhouse in early fall [1993] she had every intention of going back to her work at Rhinelander Catholic Central. She wanted to get well -- her spirit was willing -- but her body was weakening. Finally, Sister Cordea had to resign herself to the fact that she could no longer do the work she loved -- helping children with the necessary tools to give them confidence to succeed. Jesus came to free Sister Cordea from her earthly sufferings and took her to her new home on Tuesday night, October 6, 1993. | Hohman, Sister Bernetta Bridget (I100809)

| 25874 | This was compiled by Fr. Conrad Keller and printed in an old "Kalenderbuch" dated circa 1912-1914 as part of the 100 year Jubilee of the Catholic villages in the Beresan District of South Russia. The original copy of the publication belonged to Karl Berger and was occasionally brought out and shared with his visiting granddaughter, Vera Berger Hoff, when she was a teenager. Years later, she made a copy of this and has now graciously donated the information to the researchers of the Beresan villages listed within. Peter Mock and Roland Wagner have donated their time in the translation of the German version into English. The household listings were originally in numerical order, and for ease of searching, I have rearranged the households alphabetically. | Source (S850)

| 25877 | Thomas Nast was born Sept. 30, 1840 in Landau, Bavaria the son of Thomas and Apellonia Nast. The family immigrated to the United States in 1846, settling in New York City where young Thomas studied art. His artistic skill developed such that in 1855 he was hired as a staff artist for Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper and by 1858 he was also working as a freelance artist for Harper’s Weekly and the New York Illustrated News. Nast traveled to Europe in 1860 gaining great renown for his coverage of boxing in England and Garibaldi’s campaigns in Italy. After returning to New York in 1861, Nast married Sarah Edwards. The couple had five children. Nast joined the staff of Harper’s Weekly in 1862. But rather than drawing battle scenes, Nast proved more adept at showing the experiences of the common soldier and illustrating the political issues of the day. His drawing of Santa Claus in a Union camp wearing stars and stripes was a notable example. During Reconstruction, Nast advocated just treatment for blacks and former slaves and the necessity of Northern intervention to stop white tyranny in the South. His ability to draw poignant caricatures evolved through his work at Harper’s at this time and is evident in some of his cartoons supporting U.S. Grant’s candidacy in 1868 and 1872. Nast is probably most remembered for his campaign against corruption and abuse of power by the Tweed Ring in New York City led by William Magear Tweed. (Nast’s influence on popular thought can be seen through his identification of Tweed as William Marcy Tweed after U.S. Senator William L. Marcy who, in 1832, said, "They see nothing wrong in the rule that to the victor belong the spoils of the enemy." While this was a clear reference to Tweed’s spoilsmanship, many people still think of Tweed’s middle name as Marcy.) Nast’s use of cartoons brought this situation to the attention of the voters, many of whom could not read, and led to Tweed’s downfall. With the end of Reconstruction and the Grant presidency, Nast’s influence began to wane. The economic and social issues of the 1870s and 1880s lacked the emotion Nast had so effectively used in previous years. As disputes with management increased Nast left Harper’s Weekly in 1886 and tried to start his own weekly journal. When that effort failed he turned to oil painting. In 1902, Thomas Nast was appointed to a consulship in Ecuador. Shortly after his arrival he contracted yellow fever, died, and was buried there. Among Nast’s most memorable contributions to popular culture was the evolution of Santa Claus from the thin, spiritual character of European tales to the rotund image of today. He also was the first to use the donkey and elephant as symbols of the Democratic and Republican parties, respectively. Scope and Content The collection, dating from 1860 to 1902, relates to Thomas Nast’s career as an artist. There are many of Nast’s published works from various magazines as well as a number of original sketches These original sketches cover a wide variety of topics, locations, and prominent people of his time. A small volume, entitled Portraits and Designs, contains images of some of Nast’s oil paintings. Another major portion of this collection includes letters to and from Nast dated 1860 to 1901. Included in this correspondence are transcriptions of letters from Thomas to Sally from the originals in the possession of the Huntington Library, San Marino, CA. There is also additional correspondence, some with sketches, from Nast’s time in the consular service in Ecuador during 1902. Other items of interest are a family photo album, photos of Nast, and a volume of autographed letters and newspaper coverage relating to a testimonial given Nast in April 1869. There are also several manuscripts and articles by Nast regarding his trip to Europe, the art of caricature, Boss Tweed, and other topics. A scrapbook of newspaper clippings dated 1904 to 1988, concerning Nast, his career, and his drawings is also found in this collection. | Nast, Thomas (I270288)
