Sadly, Two Deaths in October |
Doris Maybelle (McAninch) Johnson (1926-2004), died 22 October 2004, in Edina, Minnesota. |
Dick Schack, Vancouver, Washington (rfschack@wa-net.com) wrote: |
“Doris was one of eight children of Leslie Oliver McAninch and Edith May Olds. Doris’ father, |
Leslie, traveled to northern Minnesota by wagon, at the age of 11, where his father, Oliver Olin |
McAninch, homesteaded on virgin timber and meadow land, one of the first white settlers in that |
part of the county. Doris was one of the few remaining ties to the Haypoint homestead that the |
McAninch families lived on for about 45 years. My brother Bob, and I, may be the last living |
descendents of the McAninch line that spent time living on the old Haypoint homestead. The log |
house, built of logs from the homestead, still stands and is in good condition in 2005. (I would be |
interested in knowing if there are others out there who spent part of their early years on the homestead).” |
Lillian Louise McAninch (1932-2004), died 6 October 2004 in Prescott, Yavapai County, Arizona. |
Born in Chicago, Lillian had a long career as a Reference Librarian, principally in Oak Lawn, Illinois. |
Lillian was the ‘big sister’, and was known as ‘Sis’ and ‘Aunt Sis’ by her family; my ‘cousin Lillian’ |
did a lot of McAninch family history and genealogy research herself, and, after she retired, she moved |
to Prescott Valley, Arizona, in 1999. I will always treasure the memories of the research trips that we |
made together, in Illinois, and down to southern Indiana, and then all the way back to rural Kentucky, |
where Marshall McAninch showed us the 1790’s land grants, and other historical places in the family. |
Lillian has been buried with her family in the Holy Sepulchre Cemetery, Worth, Cook County, Illinois. |
