Subject 	Re: Gage county marriage lookups

Hello Laurie--  I was just going through some of my old email and realized that I don't think I ever sent you the Dimmitt marriage info I found. I really apologize for that oversight I found the following in the Gage county records:
Edith Emmeline Dimmett, age 24, born in Nebr., resident of Wymore, daughter of H. W. Dimmett and Alena A. Jannsen, married Jay Clinton Elder, age 22, born in Neb., resident of Hebron, son of A. L. Elder and Clara C. Hilton, at Wymore, on 4 Aug 1909, by Eugene F. Gates, minister of the M. E. Church. Witnesses were Eugene F. Phelps, of Hebron, and Cicely May Fenton of Wymore. (Record #N-363)

The only other Dimmett was Charles E. Dimmett, son of William H. Dimmett and Mary Fish (or Fisk? --unclear), age 22, born in Illinois, resident of McLean County, IL, married Miss Wylie R. McCracken, daughter of William W. McCracken and Melissa Dimmett, age 20, born in Illinois, also resident of McLean County, IL, at Beatrice on 19 March 1890, by Minister John N. Mills. Witnesses were Mr. H. A. LaSelle and Mrs. B. A. Cogswell, both residents of Gage county. Mills was minister at the Presbyterian Church. (Record # F-397)

   Again I really apologize for not getting this info to you much sooner. I hope it helps somewhat.

BEAL HARVEY DIMMITT is a prosperous farmer living in Elmwood Precinct. He was born in Clermont County, Ohio, Jan. 31. 1845. He has very faint recollections of that State, and of the journey by steamboat to Peoria, Ill. His educational advantages were those of the early schools of Illinois, before the admirable school system of that State was introduced. At the age of sixteen his name was enrolled as a volunteer among the defenders of his country, at the breaking out of the Civil War. Being too young he was rejected, but he is none the less deserving of the credit due any soldier, as it was not anything on his part that prevented him from taking an active part in the struggle that ensued.Mr. Dimmitt and Miss Mary Caroline Robbins were married Oct. 7, 1869. The lady was a native of Tazewell County, Ill., and is a daughter of Jacob and Harriet (Walker) Robbins. In 1877 they removed to Nebraska, where they settled on 160 acres of land on section 29, and have made the improvements which now surround them. Beginning on the wild land, he has by hard work and diligent application secured a farm which, in fertility and productiveness, is excelled by few in the county. He planted groves, and set out an orchard of choice fruit, of all varieties best adapted to the climate, thus securing to himself many comforts, as well as a source of some profit, and he has projected other improvements, which, when completed, will make his farm one of the most complete in the county.Eight children have been born to these worthy people -- Wilson E., Edward A., Bertha L., Charles A., William A. (now deceased), James Roy, Claudius and Louis. They are at home with their parents, and each and every one take a lively interest in the success and well being of the entire family. The father of our subject was James S.; the mother was Sarah Walker. The father was born in West Virginia, near the Potomac River; the mother's birthplace was Ohio. Our subject represents Scotch descent, received from the father, and German descent, received from the mother's side. His father settled in Highland County, Ohio, then removed to Clermont County, where he was married. In 1852 he came from Ohio to Tazewell County, Ill., removing thence to Woodford County, in the same State, where he purchased land and lived until 1877, when he came to Cass County, Elmwood Precinct, and purchased 320 acres of land from the Burlington & Missouri River Railroad, located on section 29, and 160 acres on section 30. He died, aged seventy years, in 1882. The mother is now seventy years old, and makes her home with our subject. A family of five children were born to the father and mother of our subject, namely: Edwin, Sarah L., Beal Harvey (our subject), Ezra and Henry.Mr. D. is a genial, whole-souled farmer, very sociable, a good conversationalist, quick to see the humorous side of life, and enjoying to the fullest extent listening to a good story, and in turn can relate one with equal relish and inimitable style. His wife is an excellent lady, good looking and hospitable, having a smile and a good word for all. She is certainly entitled to a first place among the many good wives and mothers of Nebraska. In politics Mr. D. is strongly Republican. He is highly esteemed by all the members of the community in which he lives. Up to this time he has filled no public office except that of Constable, the duties of which he discharged in a very highly creditable manner.
