Carrie Dell BACON is grandmother
In a long document my grandmother, Carrie Dell Bacon Karns
wrote in the early 1930' she mentioned the Bayless family a couple of
times--
"[1875] One of the incidents of that year was the marriage of
Father'soldest nephew Morris Bayless [actually, as you know Morris
had three older brothers] whose bride to be had come from Fulton
County to this place [Corunna, De Kalb County, IN] to live with her
grandparents. Father married them Thanksgiving day at her home, and
as was the custom then there was a fine wedding feast served to a lot
of guests, as Morris was so far from home and motherless, mymother
[Mary Catherine Enslen Bacon] felt it her duty to giver the Infair
[?] dinner supposed to be given at the grooms parent's home, so the
next day, wefeasted the relations at our place, it was a thrilling
time for me, as therewas a number of the Bacon side of relations
there for several days, and the house was full of mirth and laughter,
being the only child present I was pettedby all the grown up
cousins." Carrie was nearly 8 years old at this time.
InMay of 1877, Rev Samuel Bacon and his daugther Carrie Dell
left Indiana afterthe death of his wife and her mother, Mary
Catherine Enslen Bacon, and moved to Kansas. Shortly, Samuel returned
to Indiana to m Alice Celestina Dukes, andthen returned to Kansas.
Soon, "A nephew of his from Indiana had just reachedhis majority,
Frank Bayless by name, and had come west seeking his fortune, the two
bought a well driller, and moved it and some other things out to the
claim, Frank remained there, while Father and the nearest neighbor
came back after the rest of the things and Mother and I. It took two
days by wagon to makethe trip [near present day Reno County, KS]."
Apparently Frank stayed there for a while as--  Carrie Bacon  in
jumping out of a wagon. "my new dress caughton the spring of the
wagon seat, until my weight tore it loose and I fell between the
wheels, the back one crushing my body down in the deep track of the
country road, Frank [Bayless] came running to me and carried me to
the house, as my left thigh was broken, it was ten miles to the
nearest doctor....Frank left at once to tell Father and sent another
boy for the doctor" [Carrie would be plagued with a hip problem the
rest of her life]. "Frank was about the worsttease I ever knew, but
goodhearted too'....Frank soon left us, Father boughthis
relinquishment to the claim down on the Minn

Phyliss, Good to hear from you.  I do have some wonderful stories about
Alma
Bacon
                  

                   Friday, May 25, 1906 WEEKLY EDITION
After being pronounced dead by the attending physician, and remaining in
a comotose condition for fully a half hour, Isaiah BACON, living south of
Greenoak, rallied eighteen hours, dying Saturdaymorning at seven o'clock.
Friday about eleven o'clock Mr. Bacon, who would have been eighty years
of age had he lived until Monday, was stricken with paralysis, which
affected him in practically all his faculties. All of his children were
called to his home and there, about one o'clock, when all were at his
bedside, it was announced by the attending physician that he was dead.
Hispulse stopped, and the action of his heart was not noticable, while
his eyesbecame glassy and "set." Thirty minutes later, after the family
had begun tomake arrangements to secure the services of an undertaker
and embalmer, one of the children unconsciously felt the pulse of the
supposed dead man and it was found that there was a very weak "beat."
The physician who had left the house was recalled and restoratives were
administered which resulted in Mr. Bacon rallying, regaining
consciousness and recognizing his wife and children. Owing to the
paralysis he was unable to speak but answered several questions by
shaking or nodding his head. From the time of his supposed death Friday
afternoon up until midnight he was unable to swallow, but after that time
the resolution of the swelling in his throat relieved him and he suffered
no painuntil his death.
Mr. Bacon had lived in Fulton county practically all his life, he coming
here with his parents when a child about two years old, and sinceresided
here except a year which he spent at Macy. He lived at the home where he
died for the past twenty-five years. He leaves a wife and four children,
Mrs. Charles KEEL of Rochester, Will BACON, Mrs. George COLLINS and Mrs.
George BABER all of near Greenoak. He was a member of the Methodist
church anda good old gentleman.
The funeral will be held at the Greenoak Methodist church, Monday at 2
o'clock, Rev. NORRIS, of Macy, officiating. Burial at the Mt.Zion
cemetery
Isaiah BACON was born in New York June 21, 1826, and at the age of 17
came to Indiana with his parents who located on a farm near the home
where he spent his last days. He was united in marriage April 25, 1853,
toAnna PEARSON, who died March 30, 1876. To this union were born six
children,three of whom, Sarah [BACON], Alma [BACON] and Eldora [BACON]
with the mother are dead. Those surviving are William N. [BACON] of
Athens, Mrs. George COLLINS, of near Greenoak and Mrs. Chas. KEEL, of
Rochester.
In the year 1875,he married Nancy EWER, who departed this life three
years later, leaving onechild, Mrs. George BABER, of near Greenoak. He
again married in 1879 to Clarrisa J. PENCE who with his four children,
twelve grandchildren, one brother, two sisters and a host of friends are
left to mourn the loss.
In 1883 he became a member of the Methodist church of this place, having
previously had hisfellowship with the U.B. church. His loyalty and
devotion to the Christian faith are worthy of imitation. He was one of
the pioneers of Fulton county having at the time of his death, May 19,
1906, reached the age of 79 years 10 months and 28 days.
Funeral services were conducted at Greenoak, Monday at 2 o'clock by the
Rev. NORRIS of Macy, interment at Mt. Zion cemetery.
