Jean Lemire
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jean Lemire (1626 – 1685)is the ancestor of most Lemires living in Canada. His father and mother, Mathurin LeMire and Jeanne Vannier, lived in the Saint Vivien district of Rouen, Normandy. Rouen is the outer harbour of Paris on the Seine river. Jean Lemire was baptized in the Saint Vivien church June 4, 1625.
Master carpenter by trade, Jean Lemire crossed the Atlantic between 1650 and 1653.
He married Louise Marsolet, daughter of Mr. Nicolas Marsolet of Saint-Aignan and Marie Barbier, and thereby entered one of the most important families of Québec.
In 1667, the couple decided to establish themselves on a land at Cap-Rouge. By then, they owned ten acres (40,000 m²) of land and five cattle, and they employed three servants. The same year, Jean was named syndic of the region's inhabitants, and thus became the community spokesman at the Supreme Council.
By 1684, the master carpenter was in high esteem throughout the region. He was assigned the construction of the cathedral steeple in Québec, a Batiscan oak structure, designed to crown the south tower of the cathedral.
Nine months later, on October 5, 1684, he died at the age of fifty nine years. Louise outlived her husband until 1712.

Note:
[The following passage is an excerpt from "Our French Canadian
Ancestors" by Thomas John LaForest]: In 1663, Jean was called before
the Sovereign Council of New France to decide if they should extend
the precept of Jean Lemire as Master Carpenter to the King and for the
town. The coucilors decided to keep Jean active in his functions, but
required that he share them with Pierre Mesnage, each to hold the
office for 6 months. It is believed Jean was in Canada as early as
1650. In February 1651, Jean's future father-in-law Nicolas Marsolet
acquired in the Upper-Town, a plot of land with an arpent in frontage
by 126 feet in depth. According to subsequent declaration dated 20
March 1656, it appears that Nicolas was but a front for the real
owner, his future son-in-law. On 23 January 1652, Jean was given a
piece of land consisting of 2 arpents in frontage on the river to a
depth of 20 arpents, in the seigneury of Sillery. During the afternoon
of 14 July 1653, a distinguished group gathered at Coulonge, the home
of former Governor Louis d'Ailleboust. Other guests were Father
Barthelemy Vimont, the same who had celebrated the first Mass at
Montreal eleven years earlier, as well as other relatives and friends
of the future bride and groom. It was a gathering of fashionable
society come to celebrate the approching marriage of Jean Lemire and
Louise Marsolet. Before notary Guillaume Audouart, Secretary to the
King's Council, were gathered Nicolas Marsolet and his wife Marie le
Barbier. They were representing their thirteen year old daughter
Louise, who pledged to marry Jean Lemire of Quebec, son of Mathurin
and of Jeanne Vannier, of Rouen in Normandy. The contract provided for
the joint ownership of all personal property acquired and real estate
gained from the wedding according to "la coustume de la prevoste et
vicomte de Paris". The nuptial ceremony follwed a little more than 3
months later. On 14 November 1663, the mayor and two councilors from
Quebec resigned and the municipal council replaced them with a single
mayor. Jean was the man chosen to occupy this important post. So
content were they with his service that his commission was renewed on
28 March 1667. Abbot Bellmare writes: "Jean Lemire gave the young
colony invaluable service especially in protecting it from the odious
monopoly of the West Indies Company, which was becoming an obstacle to
colonization, even refusing families coming from France the right to
bring their provisions and household effects with them, so that it
would be necessary to buy these things from the Company in Canada.
Added to this was the demoralization caused by Company encouragement
of the trade in brandy" So on 30 October 1668, the mayor proposed the
following measure to the Sovereign Council: "On that which has been
presented to the Sovereign Council by Jean Lemire, mayor of the
people, it was decided that he will write to Msgr Colbert in order to
request on behalf of all persons the freedom to trade in this
country..... and also to make those who hereafter be charged with the
commerce of the country, to provide the inhabitants the commodities
which will be necessary to them at a more reasonable price than in the
past." He also requested "to cut off the freedom of the merchants to
sell as much brandy as they please." The request was granted on the
condition that the inhabitants reduce the price of prime beaver pelts,
which they sold to the West Indies Company, from ten to nine francs a
pound. The company disappeared six years later in 1674. Jean Lemire
did not limit his activities to the protection of the citizens; he was
also a skillful builder. The archives overflow with contracts which
describe his undertakings. In 1684 he participated in the construction
of the Cathedral of Quebec. He is given credit for making "in Batiscan
oak" the belfry for the south tower of the church. He may not have
actually finished the work because he died in the autumn of 1685 in
the poor ward of the hospital of Quebec.

Jean Lemire and Louise Marsolet
Jean Lemire, originally from Saint-Vivier (St-Vivien), diocese of Rouen, France, son of Mathurin Lemire and Jeanne Vannier, married Louise Marsolet, daughter of Nicolas Marsolet and Marie Le Barbier on October 20, 1653, at Quebec. He was 28 years old at the time; she was 13 and a half.
A skilful carpenter, well qualified for his trade, a talented and honest man of above average intelligence, he quickly conquered the Sovereign Council, the city of Quebec, and even the entire country.
D’Avaugour held him in high esteem. On November 9, 1661, he appointed Lemire?king’s carpenter, special overseer, scaler and inspector of wooden structures?. As such, he was responsible for supervising and managing major work for the Château Saint-Louis, the presbytery, the Council brigantine and other projects.
On November 14, 1663, the Mayor and the two municipal councilors of Quebec resigned from their positions. The city replaced them with a single trustee who was solely responsible for?preserving the rights of the community and the public interest?. No one was better qualified than Jean Lemire for this position of trust and he performed his duties so well that he was re-elected on March 28, 1667.
He provided valuable services to the young colony, particularly by protecting it against the odious monopoly of the West India Company, which became an obstacle to colonization and even a cause for demoralization through the alcohol trade. On October 30, 1668, he proposed the following motion to the Sovereign Council and had it approved:?Based on representations to the Sovereign Council by Jean Le Mire, trustee for the inhabitants of this land, it has been decided that a letter will be written to Monsignor Colbert asking that trade be free for all people living in this country. And if that is not possible, that he be asked to reconsider his decision to form the company proposed last year by Mr. Talon. That he also be asked to authorize those who will be responsible for trade in the country to give the inhabitants the supplies they require at a price more modest than past prices. He also asked the Council?to withdraw the liberty all these merchants have had until the present to trade in these drinks (alcohol) as much as they wanted.? The request was granted.
Jean Lemire died in Quebec in 1684. This upstanding citizen was blessed with numerous descendents. Of the sixteen children the couple had, nine became heads of large families: three boys and six daughters.

John married four times. All marriages were after the previous wife died, according to his son Emmanuel Jarvis of Wyandotte (19656) who gave this family history of John Albert Jarvis' branch.
John's first wife's name was unknown to Emmanuel. She died inchildbirth as did her child. His second wife was Margaret Odien by who he had nine children. His thrid wife was a ? Luzon and this fourth wife, distantly related to him through his paternal Aunt Fanny's husband John Mexicot/Massicot/ Mexico, was ? Mexicot.
John Jarvis as a result remained a catholic as none of his marriages ended in a divorce. He is buried in St. Francis Xavier Cemetery, in Ecorse, MI.
Margaret Odien had a son Alger Anteau by a previous marriage, who moved to California and was deceased as of 1965. She died in 1924 and is buried with John in St. Francis Xavier Cemetery, Ecorse, MI (High St. and Salotte).
In 1923, John Jarvis lived on Haltiner Street in River Rouge, MI. The property had an out door toilet. His daughter Angeline, age 4, strangled herself on the back fork of a convertible parked behind this outdoor toilet.
John is said to have had four wives by his brother Charles and that he had six children by his econd wife, five of whose names were Crystal, Kate (Mrs. Walter Hill), Marie, Joseph, and Manuel. He felt this wife may have been Spanish, but it is more likely that he has confused John's fourth wife's last name Massicot, or Mexico, as noted elsewhere, with a nationality.
John Jarvis, Sr. died of pneumonia. His son John died of a brain tumor.
Charles also stated that his brothers Will and John and their father Ralph helped clear Belle Isle (about 1894) with teams of horses. Will once caught a snake on the island and tied it to the basck of their wagon. Will also may have driven a team to cinder Grand Blvd. (Historical Note: prior to being called Belle Isle, the island was called from French times Ile aux Cochons, or Hog Island, because pigs were put on it to kill the snakes.)
Charles States that his brothers and sisters were born in a one room log cabin across from the brick house on Ready Road in Berlin Twp., Monroe Co., MI., built by his father in 1881. But Charles was born in the brick house.

John Tombow
II-6: John Tombow was the sixth of the nine children of William Tombow, Jr., and Elizabeth Rohrer of Lancaster County, PA. Based on his entry in the 1850 Federal Census for Lancaster County, PA, he was born in 1848. He was probably named after his paternal uncle John Tombow. His paternal grandparents were William Tombos, an immigrant from the Netherlands, and the first Tombow in America, and his wife Mary Herzkey, born in America of German descent.
There are three lines of evidence that sustain the fact that John was the son of William Tombow, Jr. He is mentioned in the 1852-55 Lancaster County Register of Births, Marriages, and Deaths in his brother William Tombow's birth entry. He also is mentioned as an heir to William Tombow, Jr., in the Letters of Administration filed in the Whiteside County, IL, Circuit Court in 1865. He is also mentioned as an heir in the 1904 Court proceedings brought against the heirs of William Tombow, Jr., by David Kauffman to obtain clear title to William's property in Sterling.
He is also in his father's Census entry for 1850 in E. Lampeter PA.
In the Lancaster County 1852-55 vital statistics registers, mentioned above, he is styled as John R. However, there is no other record of this middle initial, probably for Rohrer, his mother's maiden name, being used by John, unlike his older brother Samuel who consistently uses this middle initial through out his life.
We first catch sight of John Tombow in the 1850 Federal Census of Lancaster County, PA, Lampeter Township. The Census was taken on 28 August 1850, dwelling 115, E. Lampeter Township. The family name has been corrupted to "Dombo" by the German census taker.
Dombo, William, 36 years old, laborer, born in Pa, real estate: $700 Elizabeth, 32 years, born in PA Catherine, 5 years, born in PA John, 2 years, born in PA Jacob, 1 year, born in PA
In 1853, when John was only 5 years old, his mother, Elizabeth Rohrer, died. His father, William, married shortly thereafter to Fanny, his stepmother. In the spring of 1853, William put his land up for sale and it is presumed that in that year or the following he left for Whiteside County, IL, and the city of Sterling.
John's father was not close to his children and it is not clear whether John went with his father at that time or was farmed out to other Mennonite families in Lancaster County, coming at a later time to Sterling.
He is not mentioned in either the 1860 Federal Census for Lancaster County, PA, or Whiteside County, IL. He may been staying in that year, with another farming family in neighboring Lee County, IL., as he is listed as a resident of Lee County at the time of his enlistment in the Army during the War. John would have been 12 in 1860 and it was his father's custom to have children raised by other families. John's picture indicates that he was sturdily built and well suited to be a farm hand even at that age.
John is one of the six men bearing the name of Tombow who served in the Civil War. His older brother, Samuel R. Tombow, his younger brother, Jacob Tombow, and three first cousins, his Uncle John's children, Nathaniel, William, and John Tombow, Jr., also enlisted.
Despite the statements on his enlistment papers that he was 17 years and 11 months old at the time of the enlistment, on 11 December 1863, when he signed up for duty under Capt. Eustace, he could only have been 15 years old.
It was not unusual for the Army to look the other way at such young recruits, and later in the War attempts were made to stop this practice. The recruits on the other hand volunteered either out of patriotism or were motivated by handsome bounties that could help their families out or give them a good start in life after the War was over. The North always seriously under estimated the strength of the enemy and the time it would take to end the War. None realized at the time that it would be the most costly war in terms of American lives in our history to this point.
John's bounty appears to have been $300, but it is not clear whether he collected it all before he died as it was paid in installments.
John's likeness is described in his Civil War papers. He is described as 5 feet 3 inches tall (below average height for the times), fair complected with brown hair and brown eyes. We are even more fortunate than this description to know what John looked like. A tin types has survived the years and is now in the hands of his grand-nephew, Pete Fluck of Rock Falls who will pass on to his son, Peter Fluck. This picture has been enlarged and is included with this history. He has the stocky build associated with many of the older generations of the Tombow Family as a picture exists also of his sister, Lydia Tombow Fluck, and his aunt Lydia Tombow Groff (This latter picture is found in a book on the family by Dorothy Tombow Boulware Tambos Tombo Tombow. Lydia Tombow Fluck's picture is found in the Chapman Brothers' Portrait and Biographical Album of Whiteside County, Illinois.)
John enlisted on 11 December 1863 in Dixon, Lee County, IL. His signature appears on the enlistment paper. He states he is 17 years and 11 months old. His residence at the time of enlistment is recorded as Palmyra, Lee County, IL. Although two other residences are given in the records as well without explanation: Winslow Stephenson County, and Dixon, IL, (Lee County).
He enlisted with the Illinois Light Artillery. He enlisted for three years and he was placed in the newly formed Battery B in February 1865.
On 12 May 1865 John started a 30 day furlough from Nashville, TN. However, John only made it as far as Camp Douglas, Illinois, where he was placed in the U.S.A Government Hospital for acute bronchitis, per a letter dated 7 June 1865 in his military records. Seven days later, on 14 June 1865, John Tombow expired of chronic bronchitis.
John Tombow was a typical tragedy of the Civil War. Death through illness was as common as death under fire power. His last days in the Army were spent in Nashville where his older brother Samuel had been during the course of the War.
John's burial place is unknown. He does not appear, after enquiry in both Washington, D.C., and Illinois by this writer, to have been buried in an official cemetery for soldiers. Perhaps with his father's death a few months before in Sterling, John lies in an unmarked grave near his father in the Science Ridge Mennonite Cemetery in Sterling, IL.
In addition to John's picture, his sword has also survived in the hands of descendants of his sister Lydia Tombow Fluck. Its current owner is Ralph ("Pete") Fluck who will pass it on to his son Peter Fluck of Wooster, Ohio.
As no record of a pension exists, it is presumed that John, who died at the age of 17, was unmarried and childless and that this line is extinct. The 1904 Court proceedings against the heirs of William Tombow by David Kauffman also mention no heir to John Tombow.
