1800s Maryland, anyone help/suggestions on figuring out who the father is?

2023.02.03 18:08 palegenealogy 1800s Maryland, anyone help/suggestions on figuring out who the father is?

My 2nd great-grandmother is Kathryn Allene Stewart (b. 1873, d. 1947), who married Franklin Leslie Peterson (b. 1872, d. 1956). Kathryn's death certificate lists William Stewart as her father. That was my only lead as to who her father was, until supplementary research led me to various family reunions that the extended Peterson family held in the 1930s. This provided a huge clue as to who William Stewart is, as it lists a Levi Dysart as an ancestor to the family. This is Levi Dysart's WikiTree entry, and after checking each of his children, it appears William Stewart's mother was Martha Dysart -- some of the information on this page is erroneous in my opinion, but the obituary entry is most telling that this is William Stewart's mother.
An Obituary for Martha D. Stewart printed in The Midland Journal in Rising Sun, Maryland on October 30, 1908 reads: “Martha D. Stewart – Mrs. Martha D. Stewart died Friday at the home of her grand-daughter Mrs. Frank Peterson, at Strickersville, Pa., from heart failure, in her 67th year. Her maiden name was Dasart (sic) and she was a native of Cecil county being born in Appleton. She is survived by one son, William Stewart, of Providence, Cecil county. Funeral services were held at her late home Monday, with interment at Rosebank cemetery, Calvert.” [4]
I was able to find Martha Dysert's death certificate and it lists Kathryn (sic Catherine), her granddaughter, as the informant. It also names Martha a widow.
Now the question is, who's William Stewart's father? From what I can trace about Martha Dysart's life, it's a little bizarre. It appears she gave birth to William Stewart at a young age, around seventeen years old. This is most certainly the Dysart family in the 1860 US Census, with Martha Dysart listed at 27 years old...there's a 'William Dysart' living with the family too, at precisely the age I know William Stewart to be. It's most likely him. That means Martha gave birth to him, as I said, around seventeen or eighteen, and now he's living as a member of the family under her maiden name. When did William Dysert become William Stewart, if this is indeed the case? Who's the father?
Thoughts on this?

Why Should You Remodel Your Bathroom?

https://preview.redd.it/l5grr2olif5a1.jpg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4d6f22b0ed675c6c2e732e5fc62bf9deb71fba1b
1. Make your home more valuable
With "move-in ready" homes being a significant lure, a Realtor.com poll from last year ranked Appleton as one of the top areas for Millennials buying homes. A bathroom remodel is the way to go if you're trying to sell your home in the Fox Cities area or simply want to raise its value overall. Bathroom renovations are frequently cited as one of the most cost-effective home improvement projects by real estate agents and market value experts.
Zillow reports that, especially in older homes, mid-range bathroom remodels often result in a $1.71 gain in property value for every dollar spent. It can also help your home stand out in the congested real estate market to update your bathroom with modern fixtures and a trendy appearance.
2. Increase safety and prolong your stay in your home
Bathrooms can be dangerous places because of the slick bathtubs, showers, and floors. Over 20% of visits to emergency rooms are due to falls, which are the leading cause of accidental injuries, according to the National Floor Safety Institute. Your bathroom can be made safer for everyone by remodeling it and adding a walk-in tub, walk-in shower, grab bars, hands-free faucets, or other bathroom accessories. It's also a wonderful long-term investment because these kinds of safety-focused features can help elderly and disabled homeowners maintain their independence and live in their homes for longer.
3. Reduced utility bills
In Green Bay, Wisconsin, a typical water bill is from $100 to $150. Renovating your bathroom can be the perfect solution for those wishing to reduce their utility expenditures. Now that they are available, water-saving toilets, showerheads, and faucets can assist homeowners like you in drastically reducing water use, which lowers utility bills. That is advantageous for both the environment and your wallet.
4. Your plumbing is having a problem
Plumbing is not a permanent fixture, and not everyone is skilled in installing it correctly. Around the Fox Cities, we've observed a number of poorly done DIY plumbing projects as well as neglected and antiquated plumbing systems. You may be dealing with serious plumbing problems, such as mould, mildew, leaks, blockages, and more, if you haven't updated your home in a while or if something wasn't put properly, to begin with. It's crucial to frequently check your bathroom and plumbing system for any signs of issues. In situations like this, remodeling your bathroom could be necessary to maintain your family's safety or avert serious problems.
5. Increase utility and usefulness
Many of our clients contact us because their bathroom is small, has inadequate storage, or is poorly designed. It's a problem if your bathroom isn't functional for you and your family. Your bathroom or powder room can be updated to make the most of the space you already have. You can make a variety of basic, low-cost improvements to make the most of cramped quarters like small toilets. It should fulfill your wants because it is a crucial space in your home.
6. It is out of date.
Last but not least, your bathroom needs to be a space you truly like to be in. Remodeling may be a wonderful option if the room no longer reflects your unique taste or if it could use some current tweaks. Go to the restroom you deserve.
We can assist if it's time for a bathroom renovation. Our bathroom remodeling and design professionals are here to help you create the bathroom of your dreams. Let's get going!

2022.10.06 05:43 pduck7 Appleton council advances Trout Museum's plan to relocate to Ellen Kort Peace Park

APPLETON - Elected officials narrowly decided Wednesday to proceed with studying the Trout Museum of Art's proposal to relocate onto public property at Ellen Kort Peace Park along the Fox River.
The Common Council voted 8-7 to continue with a site analysis, despite numerous pleas from residents to stop the process and protect the Peace Park from private development.
A conceptual site plan unveiled prior to the vote shows a new 30,000-square-foot museum and its parking lot situated at the southwest end of the 6-acre park. About half of the building would feature a walk-on green roof, including a quilt garden, that would be accessible from the park.
The museum development would consume 19% of the riverfront park. The remainder would be developed in accordance with the city's master plan for the park.

2022.08.15 22:03 pearl_squirrel91 Cold Case Solved : Tanna Togstad and Timothy Mumbrue Were Murdered in 1992 by Tony Haase Who Sought Revenge for His Father's Accidental Death in 1977 Involving Togstad's Father

"A Weyauwega man was charged Friday with two counts of First Degree Murder for the double stabbings of Tanna Togstad and Tim Mumbrue in 1992.
Prosecutors say Haase murdered Togstad and Mumbrue because he blamed Togstad’s father for his father’s death 15 years earlier.
Togstad and Mumbrue were found stabbed to death in the bedroom of a home on a fire road in Royalton on March 22, 1992. Togstad’s dog was also stabbed to death. An autopsy showed Togstad, 23, was stabbed once in the chest. Mumbrue, 34, was stabbed multiple times in the head, neck and chest. They were dead for at least a day. Detectives found evidence of a struggle but no signs of a robbery or theft -- there were money and coins in sight atop the furniture.
Haase said when he was young, his father was racing with two other snowmobilers. One of them hit Haase’s father’s snowmobile, then the other snowmobile ran over him. Togstad’s father was one of the snowmobilers. His father died on New Year’s Eve, 1977. Investigators say Haase was 7 years old.
Haase went on to say on the night of March 20, 1992, he was going from bar to bar, getting into a drunken stupor, and started thinking about his father’s death. He went to Togstad’s house. He couldn’t say why, but he said he didn’t go to hurt anyone. He got into a fight with Mumbrue. Haase had a knife -- he couldn’t remember if he’d brought it or it was in the house -- and stabbed Mumbrue.
Togstad yelled and Haase punched her in the face, knocking her out. When she stirred, he stabbed her in the chest.
The criminal complaint says Haase was recently identified as a suspect but does not say why. A DNA sample was collected from a pen during a traffic stop and analyzed by the Wisconsin State Crime Lab. The DNA was consistent with bodily fluids recovered from Togstad’s body three decades ago."
