James H. Dorsey Abt 70 27 Oct 1908 29 Oct 1908 Fulton Telegraph (Callaway Co.)
James H. Dorsey Abt 70 3 Nov 1908 Auxvasse Review (Callaway Co.)

From the History of Callaway County Missouri, 1884, page 644-645
DORSEY, J. H., farmer. Mr. Dorsey, formerly a prominent business man of Fulton, but now the owner and proprietor of the "Thomas farm" near this city, to the conduct of which he is giving his entire attention, is a native of Callaway county, though he was not reared here. He was born on the 16th of September, 1837, and when he was still quite young his parents, William and Elizabeth (Nevens) Dorsey, removed to Iowa. Eight years afterwards they went to Kentucky, where J. H. grew to manhood.

In 1858, then twenty years of age, he came back to Callaway county and worked at the saddler's trade at St. Aubert some four years. During this time, on the 20th of March, 1861, he was married to Miss Sarah Willing, daughter of William Willing, of this county, who was also willing. The following year, in 1862, Mr. Dorsey enlisted in the Confederate army, under General Dick Taylor, the "Old Gray Fox" of the Trans-Mississippi Department of the South. Soon after his enlistment he was detailed for hospital service, taking charge of the hospital at Demopolis, Alabama, which he superintended for two years.

His wife, Mrs. Dorsey, went with him South, and served as his assistant in the hospital during his entire term. No one, so far as we know, has written a book bearing witness to the services and sacrifices and sufferings of the noble women of the South for their "sunny, southern Southland" during the late war, a book which, when properly written, will be one of the proudest testimonials to the patriotism, self-sacrificing devotion and heroic fortitude of womankind, ever contributed to the history of our race. And when such a book is written, as it inevitable one day will be, the name of Mrs. Dorsey will occupy an honorable place on the pages, for her two long years of services she rendered without money and without price to the sick and dying soldiers of the South, --services such as only a tender and gentle-hearted woman could perform.

After the war, Mr. and Mrs. Dorsey returned to Callaway county, and here Mr. Dorsey opened a saddlery shop and carried on the saddle and harness business with success for two years. He and his brother-in-law, William Willing, then engaged in the dry goods and grocery business, under the firm name of J. H. Dorsey & Co., which they continued until September, 1882, when Mr. Dorsey retired from it and settled on his present farm, which is situated three and a half miles northeast of Fulton. He has an excellent place, and is proving a successful and prosperous farmer. Mr. and Mrs. Dorsey have no children of their own, but have an adopted daughter, Naomi Blumfield, whom they are rearing and educating. He and his wife are both members of the Christian church, and Mr. D. has held all the stations in the I.O.O.F. at Fulton.

I am not at all positive that all the children were hers. Jessie Herring's obituary only lists her father, no mother. Until I can find either death certificates or obituaries for each one I am leaving them all attached to her. The children were raised by people other than their father.

3394 John E. Douglas, age 85, died at Fulton Nursing and Rehab Center on Sunday, November 29, 2009. He was born in Fulton on September 19, 1924, to Dennis Givings and Bertha (Backer) Douglas. On October 19, 1945, in the study of Rev. John B. Spragens, at the First Presbyterian Church in Fulton, he united in marriage with Peggy Ruth Rose. They shared 64 years together. He was a member of the First Baptist Church in Fulton.
Upon graduation from Fulton High School, he entered the service of his county in the 290th Infantry Regiment, 75th Infantry Division of the United States Army, during World War II; seeing action in the Rhineland, Ardennes and Central Europe from June 22, 1943 to December 11, 1945. The 75th Infantry was the famous "Diaper Brigade", which had an average of 17 years among it's members. It was the youngest American combat unit ever sent into battle. Douglas was wounded twice, receiving the Purple Heart with Oak Leaf Clusters and receved the Silver Star for Valor. His attempted rescue of a fallen comrade earned him a presidential citation from President Harry S. Truman for service to his county. In 1998, when the theme for Kingdom Days was "In the Line of Duty", he was selected as Grand Marshall, for his service to his country and community.
Mr. Douglas worked many trades. He was a butcher for Mayhew's Market, and for 15 years was a painter and machinist for Harbison-Walker Refractories; then in 1962 he joined his brother, Louis, as a tool and die maker for J.A. Buchroeder Company, Columbia, Mo.
