WAR IS OVERA Centennial Remembrance

by Nancy E. Foley

The harrisburg

TELEGRAPH DUBBED IT “THE GREATEST NEWS IN THE HISTORy OF THE WORLD.” Monday, November 11, 1918 Americans would awake to news that an Armistice Agreement had been signed and hostilities were to cease at 6:00am Paris Time, 11:00am Washington Time, effectively bringing to a close the conflict now known as World War I.

From the first guns in August 1914 to the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of the year 1918, the “War to End All Wars” claimed the lives of 9.7 million soldiers and 10 million civil-ians in total. Nearly 20 million more were wounded, many of whom were permanently disabled or disfigured. Yet, out of the horror of global conflict arose deeds of selfless heroism, gallant acts of astonishing bravery and stories of love and loss that bear repeating.

May the public be reminded of the sacrifice of those who fell and served our nation it its time of need. As the world reflects on the centennial an-niversary of World War I, we pause to honor the memory of two local heroes, one who returned home and one who did not; both remembered at Allegheny Cemetery. __________________________________

IN MEMORIAMCaptain Robert S. Cain (1878 – 1961)

Section 25, Lot 196

“Fighting Bob” Cain was born in Scotland, served with the U.S. Army in the Spanish American War, Mexican Border Campaign and as Captain of “Pittsburgh’s own” Co. H, 111th Infan-try, 28th Division during WWI. Cain was awarded the Dis-tinguished Service Cross for “extraordi-nary heroism” in Bois de Chateau Diable (Wood of the Devil’s House, France) when he led his men on an advance “at great per-sonal risk,” clearing German resistance under heavy fire, even charging a ma-chine gun emplace-ment and taking it.

DeAr frIenDs, Last fall, the Allegheny Cemetery Historical Association announced its third ever Capital Campaign and a five year plan of projects was formulated. I am thrilled to report that, since that time, over $700,000 has been raised for the A.C.H.A. toward these initiatives. It is with an abundance of gratitude that we offer our most sincere thanks to the Trustees of the Richard King Mellon Foundation, Allegheny Foundation, Colcom Foundation, Nimick Forbesway Foundation, TheRemmelFoundationandagenerousanonymousdonorforthevitallyimportantfinancialsupport they have committed to our cause.

One of the main prongs of this Capital Campaign focuses on preserving Allegheny Cemetery’s 300 acre historic landscape and, to help achieve this, the A.C.H.A. felled and removedovertwodozenmaturetreeswhichwereidentifiedasdead,dyingorotherwisedangerous to surrounding canopy or memorial statuary. Over a dozen additional trees came down as a direct result of the excessively rainy spring and summer we experienced. Additionally, mudslides and storm water related damages to paved roads required the immediate attention of the A.C.H.A.. For this reason, improvements to our infrastructure remain a necessary supplement to our tree care program. In the last year, roadways offering access to three of our most historic sections were newly paved and/or patched, while corresponding storm drainage systems were updated to better manage storm water runoffandpreventfutureflooding.

In an effort to replenish our canopy, the A.C.H.A. partnered with Tree Pittsburgh to plant 65 healthy new trees throughout the cemetery on April 14, 2018. Tree species were selected that will have a high chance of success in our ecosystem and locations were mapped whererootsystemswouldflourish.OrnamentalssuchasMagnoliaandCherryDogwoodwill add aesthetic value to the park, while Cypress, Black Gum, Cedar and Birch were selected for areas where size and ecological diversity are priorities to prevent landslides and disease. Two Giant Sequoia trees were also selected, which are rare to our region and will one day be treasured memorial statues in their own right.

We could not have accomplished so much this past year without the support of foundations and friends like you. I offer my personal thanks for making this work possible and ask that you keep the Allegheny Cemetery Historical Association in mind during your year-end giving. Please consider a contribution of any amount to our ongoing Capital Campaign and stand alongside us as we move into the next phase of projects, which include aesthetic and structural repairs to the irreplaceable historic art and architecture on display at Allegheny Cemetery. “So that our heritage is preserved!”

Sincerely,

President’s Message

continued from page 1

Command of the front line shifted to Cain when his superior succumbed to shrapnel wounds the first evening and, under intense shelling and gas attacks from the Germans, he pushed forward and seized their position at the Chateau. When asked if he could maintain their perilous outpost, his response became part of his lore: “Send us ammunition, some grub if possible, and we’ll hold the line until hell freez-es over.” (Which he did!) Bob Cain was also awarded the French Legion D’Honneur, Ital-ian War Cross and the Purple Heart, which he earned when severely wounded by sniper fire while standing to observe the enemy from his trench. The bullet was meant for his head, but tore through his shoulder and collarbone when Cain leant over the officer next to him who was killed just seconds earlier. After nine months of recovery, Bob returned home to his wife, raised their family of three daughters, was elected County Commissioner, Sheriff and Treasur-er. Cain was active in veteran’s organizations throughout his life and was known locally as the “Father of Veterans Day” since his unani-mous election as Parade Marshall in 1922, when he led 25,000 World War Veterans down the newly dedicated Boulevard of the Allies, with General John J. Pershing himself in attendance. Just six days before his passing, Captain Cain was paying his respects to our troops from the reviewing stand of the 1961 Parade.

Major John B. Atwood (1882-1918)

John Baird Atwood was a native of Pittsburgh, educated at Shadyside Acad-emy, a graduate of Princeton’s class of 1905, and a devout Presbyterian. Friends called him “Baird.” He was unmarried and managing his family’s valve found-ry and construction firm when, at age 35, he left Pittsburgh to enlist in the service of his country. When a war correspon-dent inquired of his regiment’s earlier victories, Baird replied “Our men would go anywhere they are led, no matter how hot the fire.”

Major Atwood fell at 9am, Saturday, September 28, 1918 personally leading his men in a charge on enemy machine gun nests in the midst of savage opposition. Baird had been at the front line, commanding the 3rd Battalion, 316th Regiment, 79th Division on the second day of the first wave of the notoriously bloody Meuse-Argonne campaign- a devastating 47 day long Allied offensive along the entire Western Front, which would hasten an end to the war on Armistice Day.

Baird’s brother, Corporal Frederick H. Atwood, survived the war and returned home to establish a successful law firm in the city. It was Frederick who com-missioned Baird’s granite memorial to be placed in his memory, which fea-tures the Cross of Lorraine (battle in-signia for the 79th), inverted swords and was originally topped by an ornate bronze sundial. Major J. Baird Atwood was posthumously awarded the Distin-guished Service Cross and rests with honor in the Meuse-Argonne American Cemetery in France, alongside 14,245 of his comrades, most of whom perished in the same offensive. General John J. Pershing, Commander of the valiant 79th, remembered them thus, “TIME WILL NOT DIM THE GLORy OF THEIR DEEDS.”

Samuel Kier and hiS miraculouS “rocK oil”by Nancy E. Foley

i T is commonly known that Pittsburgh is the birthplace of the oil industry, though many at-tribute this (incorrectly) to Colonel Drake and his Titusville drilling field. Over a de-cade before him, however, Samuel Kier, a young man in the canal boat business, hap-pened to notice that the liquid byproduct of his family’s Tarentum salt well resembled popular medicinal elixirs of the day. The greasy black substance was considered a nuisance as it bubbled up while drilling for salt brine and was routinely dumped in creeks and waterways. A young man of robust imagination and energy, Kier began collecting it and making inquiries with local doctors about its potential healing powers, which they confirmed. As early as 1846, sharply dressed traveling salesmen were peddling Kier’s Miraculous Rock Oil in wagons painted red, green or blue with gold gilt lettering promoting a “wonderful remedy for mankind’s ills.”

An advertisement for Kier’s miraculous “rock oil”

He called his product, “Petroleum,” tak-en from the Greek “Petra” for rock and “Oleum” for oil and, while the bottles sold well, Kier continued to test it for other uses. In a stroke of luck, a mine worker’s discarded branding iron (or match, by some accounts) proved the material to be

flammable and Kier set upon devising a process to refine his oil to be burnt for do-mestic illumination and warmth without caustic smoke or the putrid odor of whale oil (which came at great financial, human and ecological expense).

In 1851, the first petroleum in the world to be burned for light illuminated the office of a 38 year old S.M. Kier at 620 Liberty Av-enue, third floor.* He immediately began selling barrels (at $1.50 a gallon) out of his 7th Avenue canal basin and in 1854 operated the world’s first commercial oil refinery on 7th and Grant, where the U.S. Steel Build-ing sits today. When residents became concerned about the risk of explosion (still a palpable fear in the decade following the Great Fire of 1845), Kier moved his distill-ery to then-rural Lawrenceville, seen here.

Kier’s distillery in Lawrenceville

The tale of Samuel Kier is one of those quint-essentially Pittsburgh stories of an inquisitive mind, tenacious spirit and, of course, golden opportunity. In a remarkable move, Kier de-clinedtopatenthisrefiningmethod,believingthat no one man should hold title to a pro-cess that would benefit so many. Thus, the world’s petroleum market was established by S.M. Kier and quickly dominated by Pittsburgh’s own Charles Lockhart in 1852, followed by George H. Bissell, Bis-sell’s protege Edwin Drake and finally Henry Flagler and John D. Rockefeller,

who co-founded Standard Oil in 1870, with which Lockhart, Frew & Co. would consoli-date their seven refineries in 1874.

Charles Lockhart (1818-1905) rests in Section 20, Lot 47

The impact of Kier’s discovery cannot be un-derstated, nor his steadfast belief that helping others ought to be the ultimate aim of all hu-man endeavor. His former employee and later business partner, iron and steel magnate Benja-min F. Jones (J&L Steel), said of him “He was of most generous spirit. Indeed, I have sometimes thought that he did not go into the business of sell-ing oil as a medicine so much on genuine speculative objects as he did from a philanthropic standpoint.”

An American Princess by James M. Edwards

J ohN Moorhead (1821-1880) was one of Pittsburgh’s earliest iron millionaires. John came west from Indiana PA in 1845 when he was 24. He had learned the iron business at the Hunting-don foundry under Dr. Peter Schoenberger, and from that time until his death 35 years later he ran a “commission forwarding” agency for raw and semi-finished iron, one of the most success-ful such businesses of that time in Pittsburgh. An early pioneer to the Oakland neighborhood, his home was at Fifth and Craft Avenues, near where Magee Research Institute is today. John Moorhead was a Presbyterian.

John Moorhead established a large family buri-al lot in Section 13, Lot 59 in about 1849 to bury an infant daughter. This Moorhead lot is locat-ed at the very top of Allegheny Cemetery on what was then called “Ridge Road,” which rep-resents the highest ground between the Butler Street gates in Lawrenceville, and those higher gates at Penn Avenue in Bloomfield.

John’s eldest son Frank Turner Moorhead (1857-1913) married Katherine Upshur in 1882 in Brooklyn, N.y., and in December, 1883 they had a little girl, Martha, who only survived 9 months, succumbing to spinal meningitis at Bedford Springs, PA, in August, 1884. When they buried little Martha Custis they certain-ly were grieved, but the plaque they designed bespeaks a heritage of which they were justly proud, and wanted not to be forgotten. The lit-tle girl’s marker… what a story! She’s a Custis! Well… “What’s a Custis?” you might ask?

George Washington meeting Martha Custis

The father of our country, George Washing-ton, married Martha Dandridge Custis in 1759. Martha had been married previously, to Dan-iel Parke Custis, an older man who’d given her four children, then died. By virtue of his death,

she became the most eligible widow in Vir-ginia, thus attracting Washington’s atten-tion. She consented, and though they never conceived a child, two of her children John Parke Custis (1754 - 1781) and Martha Parke Custis (1756 - 1773), were raised by George as if they were his own.

Daughter Martha died as a late teenager; John Parke Custis married and had children but died of typhoid at the siege of yorktown in 1781. Their child Martha “Patty” Custis (1777 - 1854) was Mr. & Mrs. Washington’s grandchild. Patty begat a girl, America Pinckney, who married one of the “Peters” of Tudor Place in Georgetown. They begat a Katherine Alicia Williams who married a J. H. Upshur from Washington D.C. and they begat a Katherine Upshur (1860 - 1927) who married Frank Turner Moorhead in Brooklyn in 1882.

The next year, those two begat Martha Custis Moorhead, a little girl as close to an American princess as our history will allow. And that little girl is buried at the topping ridge of Allegheny Cemetery in Section 13, Lot 59, grave 5.

Frank and Kate also had a son the same year Martha died. He was John Upshur Moorhead (1885 - 1919), who went into the Army after yale, as his grandfather Upshur had set an example, being an Admiral in the Civil War and Mexican-American War. During WWI, John acted as a courier between the War Department and General Pershing’s headquarters. He died of pneumonia right after the war, and he’s interred with his mother Katherine in Arlington National Cemetery. Oh, and a word about Arlington.

John Custis, citizen of colonial Williams-burg, successful plantation owner and mem-ber of the Governor’s Council, was the man who started this Custis family in Virginia. He and his wife Frances Parke gave birth to Daniel Parke Custis. John Custis died, affording a handsome inheritance of land, cash, and slaves to Daniel, who promptly died, leaving it to Martha, who married George Washington, making him, in 1759, the richest man in Virginia!

The central nugget of wealth for the Custis family was a plantation called “Arlington” on the eastern shore of Virginia--that part beyond the Chesapeake Bay to the east. Arlington Manor long since fell to ruins, but its 17,000 acres, and some few hundred acres near Williamsburg, comprised the as-sets passing to George and Martha Wash-ington, mother and father of our country. It completes this intriguing story to observe that Arlington National Cemetery, occu-pying the knob across the Potomac from the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C. was seized from the ownership of Robert E. Lee (whose wife was a Custis!). Mrs. Lee’s ma-ternal grandfather had moved to the smaller plantation south of the Potomac, from the previous Custis family lands of the previous century in eastern Virginia.

Here in Allegheny Cemetery lie Frank Turner Moorhead and his precious little daughter Martha Custis Moorhead. There in Arlington National Cemetery lie forever and anon Katherine Upshur Moorhead and her son, Capt. John Upshur Moorhead, the little girl’s mother, and brother, in the na-tional military cemetery named for Custis land of 300 years ago.
