Obituary - Mount Pulaski Times-News, 11 February 1937

W. "Ed" Birks Died Tuesday; Long Illness

Services at Christian Church This Afternoon at 3:15 O'clock

William Edward Birks, one of Mount Pulaski's best known and esteemed citizens, who had been declining in health for almost on year, died at his home on North Lafayette Street at 6:30 a.m. Tuesday, February 9, 1937, aged 76 years and 9 days. He spent some time in hospitals in Springfield and Lincoln in the hopes that his condition would be benefited, and several weeks ago returned home to await the final summons.

Mr. Birks was a native of Logan County, and within its borders he spent his
long and useful career. He was born about eight miles southwest of MountPulaski, Illinois, January 30, 1861, on the old Birks homestead farm, being a son of David and Sarah Copeland Birks, both of whom were natives of Illinois, and pioneer residents of this community. There were only two children in this family; his brother, Thomas A., was fatally injured by being kicked by a horse when he was only nine years old.
The stock-raising and farming interests of Mr. Birks, which were handled in so capable and exemplary manner, caused him to stand before the community, if not all central Illinois, as one of the progressive, scientific, and modern agriculturists of Logan County. He possessed more than one thousand acres of Logan and Sangamon County lands, and was remarkably successful in both general farming and breeding of blooded stock, making a specialty of Hereford cattle, and was known as one of the most reliable and trustworthy citizens of this county. His large estate is known as the Highview farm, located in the Bald Knob community west of the Copeland Christian church, the highest point of land between Mount Pulaski and Springfield. Since his retirement from the activities connected with farm life, his place has been in charge of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer E. Allspach, the latter of whom is Mr. Birk's only daughter. He received the usual education afforded the youth of the country in the days of his boyhood, meanwhile working upon his parents' farm and acquiring a valuable knowledge of stock-raising and farming. He remained at home, adding in the cultivation of the land until the spring of 1887. That year marked an important epoch in his life, for it was then on March 22, that he was united in marriage with Miss Nettie A. Scroggin, a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Alfred C. Scroggin, and granddaughter of the pioneer farmer and banker, Leonard K. Scroggin.

Five children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Birks, two of whom preceded him in death, David L., who died in childhood, and William A., who enlisted in the United States Army at the age of 16 years, saw much service with soldiers following the San Francisco earthquake, and later saw service in the garrison of General Barry. The surviving children are George R. Birks, at home; John Milton Birks, of Peoria, Illinois; and Helen, wife of Elmer E. Allspach, residing southwest of Mount Pulaski. He also leaves five grandchildren.

Mr. and Mrs. Birks retired from the farm about seventeen years ago and moved into the city. During several winters, they made extensive trips to the southern stated, giving up these pleasant journeys when the health of Mrs. Birks failed. She preceded him in death on June 7, 1933. As was his father, Mr. Birks was affiliated with the Democratic Party. While still living on his extensive farm, he served one term as supervisor of Mount Pulaski Township, and also one term as tax collector, but cared little for political preferment. He also served as a school director, and was a member of the board of commissioners of the Lake Fork Special Drainage District, which several years ago saw the completion of the dredge ditch from a point in Latham vicinity to the place where the long ditch enters Salt Creek in the vicinity of Lincoln. He was especially interested in the organizing of the Logan County Farm Bureau in 1917, and acted as the first president. During his residence in Mount Pulaski, he always took great interest in civic affairs, and was elected alderman of the second ward two years ago. He was also one of the directors of the Farmers Bank of Mount Pulaski. While residing on the farm, Mr. and Mrs. Birks were active members of the Copeland Christian church, and after locating in Mount Pulaski became members of the local Christian church. Mr. Birks was a member of Mount Pulaski Commandery No. 39, Knights Templar, and Mount Pulaski Lodge No. 87, AF & AM. He had also attained to the thirty-second degree in the Scottish Rite and was a member of the Peoria Consistory. Funeral services were held at the Christian church at 3:15 p.m. Thursday Feb. 11, conducted by the pastor, Rev. J. Wayne Staley. Appropriate songs were sung by a quartet composed of Mrs. Everett Beidler, Mrs. Fred G. Mayer Jr., Frank E. Turley and Robert N. Jones, with Mrs. Frank E. Turley as accompanist. The funeral was in charge of Mount Pulaski Lodge No. 87, AF & AM with Mount Pulaski Commandery No. 39, Knights Templar as escort. Interment was made in Steenbergen cemetery, four miles southwest of Mount Pulaski. The pallbearers were Ira Veail, Keith Rothwell, Wilford Scroggin, Edward O. Mayer, Henry Volle,
and Frank Copeland. During the hour of the service the business houses were closed, the may having issued a proclamation.

He was buried at Steenbergen Cemetery, Mount Pulaski, Logan County, Illinois.

WILLIAM EDWARD BIRKS

The stock-raising and farming interests of W. E. Birks, which are handled in so capable and exemplary manner, cause him to stand before the community—if not the state—as one of the pro­gressive, scientific and modern agriculturists and stockmen of Logan county. His estate of eight hundred and eighty-five acres, which he owns outright, and two hundred and forty acres which he owns with his mother, on sections 7, 8, 17 and 18, is one of the largest and finest in Mount Pulaski Township. He has been remarkably successful in both general farming and the breeding of blooded stock, making a specialty of Hereford cattle, and is known as one of the most reliable and trustworthy citizens of the county.

He is a native of Logan county, his birth having occurred January 30, 1861, on the old Birks homestead, and is a son of David and Sarah (Copeland) Birks, both of whom were natives of Illinois. His father followed farming and stock-raising as a business during his entire life, and lived and died within the state. He was a democrat and one of the men who had much to do with developing the resources of this county. His death occurred June 24, 1887, in the forty-ninth year of his age. The mother was born February 7, 1842, in Logan county. Following the death of her husband she married again and at present is the wife of Jacob Moomey, living in Logan county.

But two children were born to David and Sarah Birks, and only William Edward of this review attained his majority. Thomas A. Birks, the elder, was fatally injured by being kicked by a horse when he was only nine years old. William Edward received the usual education afforded the youth of the country, meanwhile working upon his parents' farm and thereby acquiring a valuable knowledge of stock-raising and farming. He remained at home aiding in the cultivation of the farm until the spring of 1887. That year marked an important epoch in his life, for it was then that he was united in marriage to Miss Nettie A. Scroggin, a daughter of Alfred C. Scroggin, her birth having occurred September 29, 1866. She was the eldest child in a family of three and is a granddaughter of Leon­ard K. Scroggin, one of the most highly esteemed residents of the county.

Five children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Birks. David L., whose birth occurred December 20, 1887, died in childhood. William A., born February 27, 1889, is unmarried and makes his home with his parents. He has had an eventful career for such a young man, having enlisted in the United States army at the age of sixteen years. Immediately following the terrible earthquake disaster at San Francisco his company was detailed for duty at that point and for many months he worked with his comrades guarding property, rendering aid to stricken citizens and doing all that was required of the regular troops called into action by reason of the ter­rible calamity. Subsequently he saw service in the garrison of one of the forts in Cuba, serving under General Barry. George R., born April 28, 1891, lives at home with his parents. John M., born April 28, 1895, and Helen, born October 29, 1898, are also at home with their parents.

As was his father, Mr. Birks is affiliated with the democratic party. He has served one term each as supervisor and tax collector of his township but cares little for political preferment. A Knight Templar Mason, he takes" greatinterest in the several fraternal organizations to which he belongs, and he has also attained to the thirty-second degree in the Scottish Rite and is a member of the Peoria Consistory. He also holds membership in the Modern Woodmen of America, Loyal Americans and the Farmers Federation. With his wife he belongs to the Christian church of Cornland and is at present serving upon the board of trustees of the church. In addition to owning eight hundred and eighty-five acres of land in Logan county, he has secured one hundred and sixty acres in San­gamon county and is one of the heaviest landowners of his locality. His success in life is due to the good management of his business affairs, coupled with sterling honesty and worth.

The next day he left for New Brunswick again. He travels to the New York Navy Yard almost daily, but has free time to go back to New Brunswick evenings. Finally on May 14th he gets his orders to leave on the USS Connecticut. The ship goes to Ellis Island to take on powder during the night. The ship took up anchor early in the morning and since there is nothing to do, he slept nearly all day. "Great many passengers and very crowded and he took up quarters in the wardroom on a sofa". Several other Pay Masters on board as well.

He arrived at Port Royal on the 18th of May and found out the "Wyandotte had already left a few days earlier, for Mosquito Inlet off the coast of Florida. He was ordered on board the US Ship Vermont until he could join the "Wyandotte". They left for Charleston, South Carolina. He loafed around the Wardroom reading and smoking. He "Got hold of a copy of 'Shakespeare' which seemed like and old friend." On May 22 they heard a report that Charleston had been illuminated and they were afraid the Rebels had scored a victory. On the 24th of May the Commodore returned from Charleston and said "the English had just been giving a salute from the Gunboat Racer to the Commodore as they came into port".

He spent the next week or so reading and playing cards and finally the USS Massachusetts arrives from New York. They sailed on June 6 for Mosquito Inlet. They landed at Simons Sound in Georgia. From here they went to Fernandina, Florida. On June 7th they landed at Mosquito Inlet and he got his first glimpse of the "Wyandotte" his ship, he was suppose to be on. He went on board and reported for duty. He took an accounting of his stores and clothing and that evening the winds were very heavy gales and the seas very rough. Alexander was an officer on this ship as the Assistant Paymaster.

The weather continues to be pretty rough and he has tlittle to do on board ship. He read the "House of Paris" by Dumas. His comment on the book was "a miserable trashy little thing, thoroughly sick of Sumas novels". He wrote letters and then read "Love Me Little Love Me Long" by Charles Reade, "a good title and a pretty good book". Then he read "The Cloister and the Hearth" by Charles Reade. He also promenades during the day, but says "when will we be relieved of this stature. This sort of life is becoming very tiresome indeed. No excitement of any kind". On June 19th they had "A day of excitement in our quiet life. Weighed anchor and headed for "Turtle Mound" about 15 miles down the coast. About 9AM arriving there a little after 12 miles. Fired with 2 of our 32's over 20 pound parrets and 12 pound howitzers (cannon balls) at the flag staff in the mound. Failing to hit it, we landed the boat's crew and cut it down. On the cruise down picked up a sailboat, containing three Negroes from Key West. On the way back signaled the US Rhode Island, bound for the southward." "The next day the three "darkie" friends, (as he called them) sailed for Fernandina".
Day after day was the same thing. On June 25 they got mail from the yacht America from Port Royal. He received four letters but no orders to leave, this station. He.continues to read and to sleep and be bored. On June 30 the Massachusetts' arrived and they brought the news that they might be relieved soon. Alex says "relief.cannot come too soon." He does get to do the payroll, so I assume that this ship brought money.
     
Finally July 9th they pull up anchor and head for Port Royal. He was glad to be heading north. They moved quite quickly and had beautiful weather. They received fresh beef from a beef boat, and he seems to really enjoy this fresh meat. He writes about passing Charleston and Fort Sumpter, but they don't see any fighting. He got excited about seeing his Jersey coast and finally on August 1st they land in New York, much to Alex's pleasure. He reports to the Navy Yard and he spent so much time there he decided to spend the night with Louis F. Ellis. They visited with Miss Boyd that evening. . Louis F. Ellis eventually married Margaret Boyd.

Alex needs money to pay his crew for their liberty pay and after waiting for a few days for money from the Navy Department, he had to borrow $2500 from Paymaster Marcy of the ship the. North Carolina, so his men can take liberty. He missed the last boat for Staten Island so he spent the night at the Merchant Hotel. He obtained a leave of absence and goes to New Brunswick and it is now, August 7th. On the 8th he goes to New York City to purchase a few articles of uniform, such as a.sword and shoulder straps. He wrote in the diary "New Brunswick seems deserted, because so many of my friends have gone to war." Every weekday he goes to the Navy Yard to see if any money has arrived yet. On the 12th he joins a group of friends for supper by Martin's Dock in the moonlight on the bank of the river. He said, "this was the nicest evening of his entire summer so far."

On the 14th his mother left with the children for a month in the Highlands. (He was only about 10 when his father married his stepmother.) That same evening he joined his friends Charlie Reynolds, and Henry Ellis at the Batchelor Hall for the evening. On the 21st of August he walks with Lee Stere and Kate Adrian downtown to indulge in a little ice cream. The he visits friends in New York City or returns to New Brunswick.

Finally on August 25th he received his long expected draft for the payroll money. He tried to get the money from the New York Treasury, but failed, as his endorsement is not known. He returned to New Brunswick that evening. The next day he gets Paymaster Marcy's endorsement and then to collect his $6000 from the New York Treasury. He paid off all the men whose enlistment had expired with the exception of the servants. He returned the $2500 he borrowed from paymaster Marcy on August 5th. The next day he paid off the servants and dismissed them. The next few days he spent visiting with friends and it is raining.

On August 29th he is able to go on his boating picnic. Alex left with his following friends from "New Brunswick with 2 boats and their following cargo, Mrs. Lewis nee Dutch, Miss Emma DeRussey, Mattie Janeway, and Gabadini's, Miss D. McCrae, O. Gordon, W. Leupp, K. Blauvelt, and myself. Hauled one boat over to the millpond on the shores on which we held our picnic. Left Martin's Dock at 6:PM. Attempted to come up the
river, but on a count of low tide had to wade out and push the boats. Abandoned the boats and walked up to Halls where we spent the evening. Reached New Brunswick at 12:30."

He tried another picnic a couple of days later, but it rained again. On September 2nd they were able to take another "excursion this evening. The party consisted of Miss Carrie and Mary Minturn, Miss Mary and Anna Dayton, Miss Kate Adrian, Mrs. Ed Williamson, D.A. Williamson, D.A. Stere, D. McCrae, Nick Williamson and myself. Rowed to Martin's Dock and walked to the woods, where we built a fire and ate supper. Very scrumptious. Coming back we nearly list, (I guess the boat). Arrived in New Brunswick about 12:00. McCrae and myself rowed the Minturn's up home in his boat. A very pleasant evening." These were mostly his best friends.

On September 4th he went to the Navy Yard in New York to see if when the "Wyandotte" would be ready to sail. It looks like at least two weeks. Every day he seems to go to New York, he see the Minturn's and friends. On the 6th of September he went to The Highlands with Abel Williamson. Abel was one of his best friends. They went to Mt Pleasant first for supper and then to the Thompson Hotel. This seemed to be the favorite resort of the people from New Brunswick and he met his friends there, they walk over the hills and row boats on the lake and walk the shore, there are lovely moonlights. The next day he goes over to the Minturn's house in the Highlands, they row the ladies Mary and Carrie Minturn, and ate pears and watched the surf and played billiards at the Minturn's. The next day September 9th Abel went home, because he had a fever, but Alex stayed and sailed with the ladies to Red Bank. He had an exceptionally nice day.

He finally had to leave on September 11th, so he took a ride to the train station and then to the Navy Yard where he found ou the "Wyandotte" was ready to leave for the Potomac River. He went home to New Brunswick that evening and found Abel very sick and he could not visit him. The next day he did get to see him for 5 minutes. Every day he goes to the Navy Yard and checks on the progress of getting ready to leave. He visited his stepmother's younger brother Henry Ellis in his office at 4 Pine St. New York City.

Finally he finds out the ship is ready to sail on September 20th. He telegraphed his brother Howard to meet him at the ship and Howard arranged to spend the night at the Dey St. house. (This house might be a home owned by James Bishop in New York City.) Alex finds out all of the officers are to be on board tomorrow morning. He took care of his affairs on board, and got the Captain's permission to go ashore and spends the night with Howard at the Dey St. house.

Alex's ship finally sales on September 22nd and they head for Hampton Roads. They are expected to report for duty to Admiral Wilkes in the Potomac Flotilla, to draft 50 men on board the "Wyandotte" to the receiving ship, the Brandywine. On September 25th he received a draft for $6000 which was forwarded to him from New York. He went on board the Brandywine to get it cashed. In the morning he was unsuccessful, but in the evening the Paymaster on the Brandywine cashed it for him. They tried to leave for the Potomac, but there is a violent storm. The next day they proceeded up Chesapeake Bay
toward Washington and they had a false alarm of a fire, which created quite a bit of excitement. They finally anchored at the mouth of the Potomac.

The next day they proceeded as far as Piney Point where they encountered the ship the Jacob Bell, a guard ship. Alex's ship took on another pilot, some refugees and prisoners. They returned to Washington and spent several days there going ashore and attending to business. They are docked at the Washington Navy Yard. On October 3rd they were hauled up on deck to move the ship in order to make room for the iron clad Monitor to come in for repairs.

He went shore and made a few purchases before returning to the ship. He spent the evening discussing politics. They stayed in Washington until the 9th of October, then they set out for Fortress Monroe. Alex is told that the "Muster Roll" was not filled out correctly and that the Admiral would not accept it. On Sunday the 12th they are told to act as a guard ship and check all passes of inboard and outboard going vessels going into the harbor. They stay around Fortress Monroe and Hampton Roads and on the 17th of October Alex went fishing, in a dingy with Mr. Carr and they were unsuccessful. They visited Norfolk, Virginia and spend the next few days on board ship. On the 24th of October a man fell overboard, but was rescued.

He received some letters, from his father, Howard and Mrs. Williamson, Abel's mother. On the 29th of October they tried to finally get under weight, but the propeller was tangled in the buoy rope. They tried diving to fix it, but that didn't work. They lost their anchor and finally found that two days later. On November 4th a tug finally pulled their ship to Norfolk in order to try and free the propeller from the rope. On the 5th the ship was hauled to shore, but then sunk in the mud. They had a tug pull them out and the tug took them to Fortress Monroe. On November 6, the Captain went on shore to be a witness at a Court Martial for a boy accused of shooting at this vessel a week or two ago. It is very cold on board the ship since they can't start up the engines. Alex makes a fire in a coal bucket in the Wardroom. The next day Mr. Carr made a stove out of a sheet of metal in a coal bucket. They called this the Monitor Stove. It kept the room very comfortable.

On November 12th they finally started up the engines and the propeller was fixed. The next day they finally set sail and went toward Fort Henry to practice with "great guns", some excellent shots were made at a barrel in the water. They met up with the 133rd regiment of New York Volunteers, and Louis F. Ellis is in the regiment. Alex looked for him, but could not find him. The Captain sent Alex in search of fresh beef. The next day they left for the hospital in Portsmouth, in order not to be surprised, a full watch is on board. The doctor and Alex made a checkerboard and pieces for playing with one evening. On the 24th of November the officers of his ship, arrested two of the crewmen for drunkenness and fighting. November 28th two men went ashore in an oyster boat. The Captain, then forbade anyone from going shore with out permission or in this kind of conveyance.

On the 29th Alex finally made contact with Louis F. Ellis. He spent the day ashore with him. Then he returned to Norfolk. On December 4th Alex, the doctor, Mr. Carr and the pilot went ashore and the doctor purchased a fiddle. They visited the Portsmouth Navy Yard and discovered it had been destroyed by fire. Only walls were left standing. The rest of the month they spent the days walking around Norfolk or Portsmouth. The doctor played the violin in the evenings to entertain them. Alex always continued to read a lot. On December 19th Dr. Carmody brought on board two ladies to visit. The crew served them cake and wine and it was a very pleasant visit. Sunday the 21st Alex, Mr. Carr and the doctor went to see a patient at the hospital with delirium tremors, then they visited a saloon called the "Mug" where they went to warm themselves. On Monday the 22nd Carmody, the Captain, and Alex went in the Captains Gig to the shore and visited the ladies that they had seen last week on the ship. That evening Alex attended the theater and saw a musical performance. Christmas day, several of the men went ashore to visit Carmody in his room, and Alex brought the ingredients to make eggnog. The captain invited some ladies and gentlemen on board to share the meal. An invitation was given for them to visit in Portsmouth. On the 27th Alex and the doctor and Mr. Carr went in search of the Jones Bridge, the area where the ladies from Christmas day reside. The 31st is the last day of the diary. The Captain provides the Ward Mess with quite a few stores and presents Alex with a bill for them

This concludes the diary. It is not terribly exciting, but his spelling, handwriting and English are excellent and he does present a very good picture of life at in 1862 and his roll in the Civil War. Now we don't know what he does for the rest of the war. It seems after the war he works for his father in the merchant and trading business. He travels to Europe. He never married, even tough he seemed to really like the ladies. His only brother Howard, whom he wrote to often, died in 1866 in Titusville, Florida of typhoid fever. Howard might have also been in his fathers business too. Alex and his oldest half sister Isabella became very close, when she was older, and she inherited his great library when he died in 1885 at 45 years of age. We are also so lucky that she kept this diary of his. When Isabella died after 1926, she left these things to her youngest brother Ellis Bishop. The diary is now in the possession of my brother John Bishop in Cedarburg, Wisconsin.
