In all she provided photos for several generations, descendants of Jean Bonel (1640 - ?) and Marie Lalon (164_ - ?), whose son Daniel Bonnell (1664-1740) and wife Marie Izambent (1666-1699) settled in South Carolina from France.

John R. Bonnell, Sr was the 6xGreat Grandson of Jean and Marie (Lalon) Bonel.

Purportedly, a Benjamin Bonnell (CB004106) married a Hannah Golden about 1780.  At some time in the past I was told that the source for this is The Report, Ohio Genealogical Society, 1986, Vol. 26, pg. 91. I asked John Grady, [email protected] or 4218 Oxhill Road, Spring, TX 77388, if he might be able to find the document in the Houston Clayton Genealogy Research Library. He wrote that “THE REPORT is bound and in the open stacks.   As you will see, this references another source, THE CINCINNATI PIONEER, and this I did not locate.  I did find A COLLECTION OF PIONEER MGE RECORDS ...data taken from John D. Caldwell's work.  It appears that the Hamilton Co., Ohio records need a bit of research and this I will do when I get a bit more time.” I was able to find the reference, The Cincinnati Pioneer, but it contained the same info as in The Report. So here is what John was able to find for us:

Early Rosters of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, compiled by Marjorie Byrnside Burress, 1984, Page 15:

“Gano and Stanley Account Book, 1794A general store was kept at Columbia by John Stites Gano and William Stanley. Listed are customers of 1794, residents primarily of eastern Hamilton County and men attached to Fort Washington. The roll may help to determine general arrival times in Ohio for some of the persons named. Original manuscript may be seen at The Cincinnati Historical Society. … Bunnel, SamuelBunnell, CalvinBunnell, LutherBunnell, Nath’l…”

[Ed. Note: Samuel is Samuel Bonnell, CB310238. His lineage is William1, Nathaniel2, Nathaniel3, Nathaniel4, Benjamin5, Samuel6; Calvin is likely 019983 and his lineage is unknown. He died in 1805 in Springfield twp, Hamilton co., OH; Luther is 029868 and his lineage is unknown. In 1792 he was a private in the Ohio Militia; I cannot determine who Nathaniel is.

Mary Remler*

THE CINCINNATI PIONEER, by John D. Caldwell (1873, pages 19-29) contains a list of the ‘Roll of Members, Class of 1812’, showing those who belonged to that class, having arrived in the North West Territory and in the State of Ohio after 1803. Also given are dates and places of birth. An earlier list was published in THE REPORT 24:3:170. In 1872, the Constitution was amended to provide (on payment of two dollars) that those in Ohio on or before 4 July 1815 might become members of Class No. 2, which is published on page 30 of the same work.

It is obvious that there are some errors in the list, primarily incorrect dates, such as Thos. Henry Yeatman, listed as born 1865, but a native of Cincinnati in 1805. In a few cases, some additional information is given in the actual record, which should be consulted. The copy has been placed on file at the OGS Library.

Name date & birthplace Came [to Ohio]…Bonnell, Ben. (Harrison) ESSEX CO NJ 1805…”

[Ed. Note: This is Benjamin Bonnell (CB004106) who purportedly married Hannah Golden about 1780. but no mention of Hannah is contained in the article.]

A Collection of Pioneer Marriage Records; Hamilton County, Ohio, 1789-1817; Edited by Marjorie Byrnside Burress. Page 2:

Anderson, Robert and Rachel V. Bunnel June 17, 1811 by Rev. Samuel Baldridge

(WS, June 22, 1811: Married June 16.)

[Ed. Note: Rachel is CB320142; her lineage is William1, Nathaniel2, Nathaniel3, Nathaniel4, Benjamin5, Aaron6, Rachel7. I believe that the comments in parenthesis indicate that the Western Star newspaper of 22 June reported them as married on June 16. Claude’s database shows the marriage as June 16 and references that newspaper as the source. However, I’m inclined to believe that the correct date is June 17.]

QueriesFrom: john buffington [mailto:[email protected]]Sent: Saturday, September 11, 2010 2:20 PMTo: [email protected]: Rachel Ann Bonnell nee Buffington born 1822 in Dearborn Cty. Indiana

Dear Sir:My name is John E. Buffington.  I am attempting to find proof of the given name of the husband of one Hannah [or Hanna] Buffington.  I have circumstantial evidence to show that Hannah was born in Greenbrier County, VA. now West Virginia in 1785.  She somehow made her way to DearbornCounty, Indiana.  I believe she is the mother of Mary Buffington (DOB 1828) and John Buffington (1833) both of whom were born in Indiana (I believe in Dearborn County). I have a deed dated 1845 with Hannah Buffington as one of the parties in Dearborn County.  I have evidence that bothMary and John were in Dearborn per the 1850 census.  By 1850 all three had moved to Knox County, Illinois.  Hannah lived there until she died in 1890.I have run across various writings that indicate that Rachel Ann Bonnell nee Buffington was,perhaps, the elder sister of Mary and John.  Would [you] have any evidence or family rumor dealing with Rachel Ann Bonnell's Dearborn County family?Thank you.John Buffington

[Ed. Note: I informed John that Claude’s database shows Rachel marrying James Harvey Bonnell, 320422. But we show no information for Rachel’s family and I have no other info regarding Rachel’s family. If you have any info please e-mail to Mr. Buffington (with a copy to me please) or if you don’t do e-mail, mail it to me and I’ll get it to him.]

From: Gustavo Somoano [email protected]: Friday, October 15, 2010 9:14 AMTo: [email protected] Subject: Dennis Bunnell Hey, how are you?   We are searching for Dennis Bunnell who was our teacher and coach in Coral Gables at Deerborne School in the '70s.   Would you have any idea how we can contact him?  We are having a reunion in November and would very much like to invite him.  Dennis was married in the 70's to a woman named Joy, who also taught at our school.    We think he originally was from Ohio (but it could have been Oregon) and don't recall if he had any children as yet.  He was in his early 30s in the late 1970s.   We loved him very much and would really like to have him join us. Regards, Gustavo Somoano                  Managing Broker GSL Properties5825 Sunset Drive - Suite 207South Miami, FL  33143Office:     305-662-4766Mobile:   917-683-8778

[Ed. Note: Good news for this query. I sent his e-mail out to all Bunnell/Bonnell researchers for whom I have e-mail addresses. Clem Bonnell, [[email protected]] wrote: “I found Dennis and have put him in touch with the man Gustavo in Florida. Dennis is the son of 350545 Phillip Charles or Charles Phillip Bunnell. Dennis and his wife, Joylyn, live in Lebanon, Ohio. He now is a minister. His wife has relatives in Kutztown, Pa. I will see Dennis and Joylyn on Sunday, November 28, since they will be staying in Allentown, Pa. over Thanksgiving. I will get his and his wife's and their children's'information so it can be entered on the website.” I heard from Gustavo that Dennis and wife did in fact make it to the reunion and they were well received. Thanks Clem!]

~~~~~~~Clem, [email protected] or 7 Deer Path, Milford, NJ 08848-1928 has also requested some assistance:

Currently, I am searching the Bonnells from around Erie, Pa.-North East and Harborcreek, Pa. I am in touch with Beth Simmons, who is from that area, I think. Her e-mail is [email protected]. It seems that not much is known about those in the Erie area. Could you put out a plea for information on them in the next newsletter? Louis Bonnell (003222) of New Martinsville, WV had a grandfather Jesse (000203) originally from Harborcreek-died and buried in WV. Jesse apparently lived at some time with his grandfather, John (000262) in Harborcreek. We all are running into the question-who was Jesse's father?

[Ed. Note: Clem has summed it up and referring to Claude’s database, I could find no other leads. So if someone out there is interested in the same line, please contact Clem.]

Barbara Barrett, [email protected] or 80 So. Pleasant Rd., Unit 301, Lake Zurich, IL 60047-2270, ran across a John Bunnel that she, nor I, can fit into the family. We cannot find his wife’s maiden name in Claude’s database at all.

BiographiesA while back Steve Bonnell, [email protected] or 1523 Good Shepherd Road, Montoursville, PA 17754, sent me the link, (http://www.billcappello.com/articles/Bonnie%20Bonnell.pdf) to an article about Bonnie Bonnell who appeared in some of the Three Stooges movies. It was an interesting read and I contacted the author, Bill Cappello, who agreed to let me publish his article in the newsletter. It also serves as an interesting study in research methods.

The Search . . . for Bonnie Bonnellby Bill Cappello

www.billcappello.com

By now, I suppose all Three Stooges fans have seen the MGM shorts they made with Ted Healy. Also appearing in these shorts is a young lady referred to in the opening credits as “Bonny.” I became interested in knowing more about “Bonny.” What was her real name? Was she still living? If alive, and willing and able to talk, she would be valuable from an historical point - she would know first hand how Healy really got along with Howard, Fine and Howard; how the routines were developed for the screen; and most importantly, what sequences were

Page 12: THE BUNNELL/BONNELL NEWSLETTER  · Web viewNEWSLETTER. HTTP://. Charlie@bunnellfamily.com. Volume XXIV, No. 4 November 2010

Bunnell/Bonnell Newsletter, V.24, No. 4 November 2010 Page 58

filmed for the various shorts, and then cut from final release. This article is about my search for “Bonny.” My first place to check for any information on “Bonny” was in Ted Healy’s clipping files at New York Public Library’s Theatre Collection. In the multitude of clippings was one article, from the New York Daily News, dated December 26, 1935. The headline reads: “Ted Healy in Firebug Role Lands in Jail.” The article described how Healy, in a mischievous mood, forced his way int the apartment of “former showgirl Marion Bonnell” and set fire, on the kitchen stove, to bundles of her clothing and pieces of furniture. At one point in the article, she was referred to as “Marion W. Bonnell, age 26,” and Healy called her Bonnie. Now knowing what apparently was her real name, I checked the clipping files for Marion Bonnell, and found one, with just two newspaper clippings: one was a full -length photo of her, mentioning she was “one of the beauties” in a Broadway musical revue The Ramblers, dated February 21, 1927. The other was a portrait photo, obviously taken many years earlier, accompanying a couple of lines about the Ted Healy firebug episode, dated December 1935. Unfortunately, there were no clues as to her birthplace, or any marriages. Before continuing library research, I decided to call any living people who may have known her personally, in hopes that they’d be able to give me some leads. I talked to Paul “Mousie” Garner, who worked with her in Bill Rose’s Crazy Quilt, a 1931 Broadway musical revue. Garner said that in that show, Healy’s stooges were Dick Hakins, Jack Wolfe, and himself. He remembered her as being a very good dancer, but knew nothing about what became of her. Next call was to Muriel Evans, who played Healy’s wife in the MGM short The Big Idea. Muriel remembered working very briefly on the set, but did not know Bonnie at all. Final call was to Matt Brooks, who was a co-writer with Healy on the shorts. He knew nothing. So it was back to the library. In the Personal Name Index to the New York Times, I found one reference to Marion Bonnell. The article referred to was a mention of a marriage to a T.F. McGoey of Long Island, who met her while she was appearing in a show named Tell Me More in 1925. The marriage took place in New York City in May of 1926. I was able to get a copy of the marriage application, which gave me some personal information: her father’s name was John, mother’s maiden name Marion Evans, and she was born in Atlanta, Georgia. The man she married, Thomas E. McGoey, was a salesman. I was able to locate some relatives of his, who told me he was long dead, but that his marriage to Marion Bonnell didn’t last more than a few years, and, of course, they had no idea of what happened to her.

With the information that she was from Atlanta, I was able to locate a few of her relatives there. The most helpful was a first cousin, Lloyd Dixon (his mother and Bonnie’s father were brother and sister). He told me he never met her, but knew of her work on the stage and in movies with Healy. He was under the impression that Healy and Bonnie were married, but I’ve never found any documentation of this. Mr Dixon referred me to his daughter, Mrs. Jean Murray, who was keeper of the family history. Mrs. Murray gave me information from the family records that led me to another of Bonnie’s relatives, a first cousin on her mother’s side. Bonnie was born on August 1, 1905, in Thomasville, Georgia, the only child of John Wright Bonnell and Marion Evans Bonnell. Her full birth name was Marion

Wright Bonnell. With the information that her parents were married in Thomasville, the birthplace of her mother, I was able to locate another very helpful relative. Jim Evans whose

father and Marion’s mother were brother and sister, told me that Bonnie, whom he called “little Marion,” had died in Santa Monica, California on March 14, 1964, age 58. He told me he believed she was an alcoholic, and that when he visited his Aunt Marion in the 1950s (Bonnie’s mother lived with her since the early 1940s), he was not allowed to see Bonnie because she wasn’t in any condition to have visitors. He did tell me that her married name was Hayes, but he never met her husband. I applied for and received a copy of Bonnie’s death certificate. Her full hame is listed as Marion Bonnell Hayes; date of birth August 1, 1913, which is erroneous by eight years; married to Jack L. Hayes, an auto parts salesman, her last occupation, housewife, for 28 years. She died at Santa Monica Hospital, and an autopsy was performed to find the cause of death, which is listed a “fatty metamorphosis of the liver,” a condition which is caused by consumption of large amounts of alcohol over a long period of time; a contributing factor to her death was “cerebral edema” which is fluids collecting around the brain, which may be caused by a blow to the head. Bonnie was cremated and her ashes (known as cremains in the funeral business) are interred in their own niche at the Woodlawn Cemetery Mausoleum in Santa Monica. The final person I talked to was Marc Bentley, the man who owns the house in West Los Angeles where Bonnie and her husband last lived. Mr. Bentley told me that his house had been in his family for many years, and at the time Bonnie lived there, his brother Fred owned it. He said Fred rented out rooms to friends who were not in good financial circumstances. He recalled that Bonnie (he referred to her as Bonnie, a name that stayed with her since her association with Healy) was an alcoholic and things were very bad for her at the end. After her death, her husband Jack moved out of the house and was never seen again. So that’s the story of whatever happened to Bonnie Bonnell, Ted Healy’s first and only lady stooge on screen. Perhaps it was their mutual penchant to drinking that brought them together, but unfortunately, it was also the cause of their individual demise.”

[Ed. Note: Marion Wright Bonnell is 013998 in Claude’s database. This article provides considerable data for the database, such as the dates and places of Marian’s birth/death and her husbands. While I was searching for additional information on Bonnie, I found a Bonnie Bonnell who was a frequent guest of Ernest Hemingway during the 1920s. Ernest Hemingway; a life story by Carlos Baker, Scribner, 1969, on page 69 says that “[Hemingway’s] softer side appeared in the course of a few dates with Bonnie Bonnell, a striking six-foot brunette who was related to the wealthy family of Massey, who had endowed Massey Hall.” I don’t believe it is the same Bonnie though as this one lived, at least for some time, in Toronto. Additionally, I can find no relationship between Marion and the Massey family.]

Lewis Bonnel Biography

Lewis B. Bonnel is a native of Jay County, Indiana, born on the homestead of his parents, William and Rebecca Bonnel, May 11 1840.  His parents came from Ohio to Jay County in the fall of 1838 and settled in Pike Township where they commenced building a home in the dense forest one half mile south of the present site of Collett.  They improved eighty acres at this place, where they remained until 1861, when they sold, and bought a home on section 1, Pike Township, where the mother died in 1862.  The father subsequently sold his land on section 1, and went to Kansas, but later returned to Pike Township, and died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Hannah Mays, in 1875.  Twelve children were born to the parents of our subject—Mrs.

Hannah Mays, of Pike Township; Mrs. Sarah Ralph, deceased; Mrs. Elizabeth Garringer, of Pike Township; Henry was a member of the Sixty-ninth Indiana Infantry, and later in the war in the Nineteenth Michigan Light Artillery, in which service he died at or near Vicksburg; John, living in Michigan, was a soldier during the later months of the war; George was a member of Company H, One Hundredth Indiana Infantry, during the war and is now a minister in the United Brethren church, residing at Collett Station; Lewis B., the subject of this sketch; Mary Ellen, died at the age of nineteen years; Mrs. Susan Ralph (deceased), and James and William died in early childhood.  Lewis B. Bonnel remained on the homestead with his father until he enlisted in defense of the Union, March 25, 1864, when he became a member of Company H, One Hundredth Indiana Infantry.  As a recruit he joined the regiment at Dallas, Georgia, and took part in the great campaign which culminated in the capture of Atlanta, and was in all battles in which his regiment was engaged.  He marched to the sea, and through the Carolinas, performing a soldier’s duty faithfully until the war was ended.  Returning to Pike Township, he resumed farming, an avocation he has since followed.  Mr.  Bonnel was united in marriage June 4, 1868 to Miss Angeline Henry, who was born in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, March 15, 1844, a daughter of Robert and Clarissa Henry, her mother dying when she was a child.  When she was nine years old her father came to Jay County, Indiana, and settled in Wayne Township where she was reared and married.  Her father is now living at Nashville, Tennessee.  Mr. and Mrs. Bonnel are the parents of six children—Florence R., Naomi G., Robert W., Clarissa H., Emeline and Angeline (twins).  Mr. and Mrs. Bonnel began housekeeping on section 11, Pike Township.  Since 1880 they have made their home on Section 10 of the same township, where they have sixty acres of well improved and highly cultivated land, with good substantial building improvements, the entire surroundings showing the owner to be a thorough, practical farmer.   In his political views Mr. Bonnel is a Republican.  Mrs. Bonnel is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church.

[Ed. Note: Lewis is 320991 in Claude’s database. This is the line previously thought to connect back through Benjamin and Eleanor Bonnell to the immigrant William but called into question by the results of DNA testing. As a result the current line is: Benjamin1, Aaron2, William3, Lewis4.]

European ResearchRight now I’m trying to pull together all the various pieces of data and sources for Cheshire. It’s not that I am especially confident that William the 17 th century immigrant came from there, but I have found a lot of data about Bunnells/Bonnells in that area and it has been stated in some publications that he came from there. So hopefully, next issue I’ll have some kind of a concise summary.

~~~~~~~Armando Framarini, [email protected], had contacted Steve Bonnell, [email protected] or 1523 Good Shepherd Road, Montoursville, PA 17754, in regards to Bonnell & Van Soldt marriages. Armando’s mother is a von Soldt and the Bonnell line is a side branch he has been researching. What follows is part of the material he pointed out to us. The New England Historical and Genealogical Register, Vol. 28, January 1884, David Clapp & Son, Printers.

The New England Historical and Genealogical Register, Vol. 28, January 1884, David Clapp & Son, Printers. Pgs. 324-325 contains an abbreviated version of the will of Elizabeth Vansoldt (nee: Bonnell):

Elizabeth Vansoldt of Whitegate Alley in the parish of Buttolph Bishopsgate London, widow, 7 September, 1665. Five pounds to be spent about my funeral. To my son Abraham Vansoldt in Virginia or elsewhere twenty pounds within three months after my decease (and certain moveables). Legacies to daughter Mary Wills, cousin Mrs. Judith Bonnell of the Old Jury, daughter Anne White {inter alia two pictures made & drawn for my brother Stripe & his wife), grand child James White, & loving friend Thomas Parker of Walbrook London & his wife. My loving son James White to be full and sole executor.James White having died, letters of administration were granted 12 October, 1665, to Anna White. Hyde, 126.

Armando also sent me the link to a book in Google that is unfortunately for me, in French. It is titled, The Walloons and their church at Norwich: their history and registers 1565 -1832 .

I sure could use some help with this one. There are 29 references to Bonnel in this book. Here is one that is translated by Armando::

.

DNA & GenealogyWe are going to try and find a Bu/Bonnell from the UK, hopefully with a known lineage going back at least 100 years in that area and offer to offset at least part of the cost of his participation in our DNA program.

CorrectionsIn the last issue, on pages 40-41 I wrote about Jeannette Bonnell whom I erroneously identified as CB264541. She is actually 361541 in Claude’s database.

 

Post ScriptAfter finishing the last issue I decided to build an index of biographies, which forced me to go back through past issues to find them all. I also found out some biographies were run more than once - looks like I should have started that index much sooner. I also had to determine whether some articles were biographies or not as that header wasn’t used until 1999 even though there were many articles over the years that were in fact biographies. I’m attaching that listing for your use. If there is one you’re interested in it may be on our web page, so check there if you can. If you don’t use the internet or the issue you’re interested in isn’t there, let me know and I’ll get you a copy of the biography.

As usual, this issue was a week or two late. However, the next issue, February 2011, vol. 25, No. 1 will be about a month late. Due to some plans to go further south for the really cold months, we just won’t have access to much of our data nor the specialized software we use for the internet and preparing the Newsletter in two different formats; MS Word and Adobe Acrobat. So please be patient and by the end of March you should have the next issue.

Once again we have more material available than we have time to research. But, keep that information flowing. I am still amazed that in every issue there are Bunnell/Bonnell names, dates and places that we were previously unaware of.

We’re accepting 2011 dues now. Prices are unchanged for this year.
