Life EventDateDescription
Birth5 February 1818Andrew Bear was born on 5 February 1818 at Pennsylvania also reported as Ohio.
He was the son of David Bear and Esther Nailor.
Marriage1838Andrew Bear married Elizabeth Cornelia Morione Goont Kiefer, daughter of George Philip Keifer and Eva Marcia Roedel, in 1838.
Death6 June 1854Andrew Bear died on 6 June 1854 at 36y 4m 1d at age 36.
  • Andrew Bear, the sixth child of David and Esther ( Nailor) Bear, was born in Cumberland county, Pa., Feb. 5, 1818, and died June 6, 1854, at Spring Green, Wis. His wife was Elizabeth Keifer, daughter of Philip and Eva (Radle) Keifer. Her father was German and her mother French. She was born June 16, 1819, near the American side of the Atlantic ocean during the passage of the family to this country, and was given the name of Elizabeth Cornelia Morioue Goont, Morioue Goont being the name of the captain of the ship, Cornelia the name of his wife, and Elizabeth the name of the ship. She died at Corona, Gal, Sept. 12, 1903, and was buried at Spring Green, Wis. She was married to a Mr. Simpson after the death of Andrew Bear, but whom she also survived. Six children were born to Andrew and Elizabeth (Keifer) Bear.
    ...
    Like his brother Joshua, Andrew Bear died early in life, and there are but few now living who can remember him. It is said, however, that he married at Lexington, Ohio, where he lived for several years, and came to Wisconsin in 1848. He entered a farm at Spring Green in June of that year, where he lived until he died, June 6, 1854. He was one of the first settlers in Sauk county, Wis., and taught the first school in that county. He is said to have been a very influential man in church matters and a leader in school work. He united with the United Brethren Church at an early age, of which church he remained a consistent member up to the time of his death.

    Andrew Bear's sons all spell their name Baer. They changed the spelling to avoid confusion with other families of the same name.

James K. Craig

M, b. 28 December 1824, d. 24 June 1911
Father*John Craig
Mother*Savilla Hanks
Life EventDateDescription
Birth28 December 1824James K. Craig was born on 28 December 1824 at Kentucky.
He was the son of John Craig and Savilla Hanks.
Marriage25 February 1847James K. Craig married Catherine Wilkinson on 25 February 1847.
Death24 June 1911James K. Craig died on 24 June 1911 at age 86 James K. CRAIG, commonly known as "Uncle Jim" died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. T.M. SPYKER, June 24, 1911, aged 86 years, 5 months, and 26 days. He was born in Kentucky Dec. 28, 1824, came to Marion county, Ill., at the age of 12 years. His parents were John and Savilla CRAIG. His mother’s maiden name was HANKS, she being a sister of Nancy HANKS, the mother of LINCOLN. Uncle Jim was married Feb. 25, 1847 to Catherine WILKINSON, who was of Scotch descent. To them were born 9 children, 4 of whom are deceased, James, Samuel H., one in infancy, and Sarah A., who was the wife of M.H. SEE. The surviving ones are Benjamin D., Jay H., John E., Elizabeth, the wife of T.M. SPYKER, and Ida, wife of Lemuel KENNEDY. In addition to these he leaves 16 grandchildren, and 5 great-grandchildren, his companion having died 20 years ago. He was the last survivor of his father’s family of 14 children and the last one of the early settlers of this vicinity who were about his age. Uncle Jim was a man of marked traits of character. Though his school advantages were meager, he was a close student and was clear and definite in his opinions upon all religious, political and social questions. He was never obtrusive with his opinion or advice, but a careful and safe advisor when advice was needed or desired. He was a man without ostentation and his good influence was not noticed by the multitudes but he was remarkable for his influence upon individual character and few in the community cannot tell of some simple incident in association with him which they cannot forget. This fact was mentioned by all who participated in the funeral service. His religious experience which began in his boyhood was satisfactory and definite, no mistranslation, mystery or severe Biblical criticism annoyed him. His faith in God rose above all these and he was never bothered by a single doubt. His selection of a text for his funeral sermon (Job 27:3-4) indicated his practical disposition in religious matters. His mind was clear to the end and he made all the arrangements for his own funeral. He was uncomplaining, cheerful and full of hope to the last. The funeral occurred at his home church Monday and was largely attended. The sermon by Rev. GARRETT of Odin, was extremely practical. Remarks were made by Revs. SIMERS, HOCKER, and SPYKER, and by W.W. NEIL all whom insisted upon Uncle Jim’s strong influence on individual character. Uncle Jim was loyal to his own church but was full of charity for other denominations. The pall bearers were his sons and grandsons. The music conducted by the MILLICAN and SIMERS families of Omega was of high character.
