Black Sheep Sunday: Dillinger Gang Hides In The Loblolly
 |
| Source: Commercial-Review, Portland, Indiana, January 30, 1934, page 1. |
Charles Makley, one of the Dillinger gang, who is now held in the Tucson, Ariz., jail, in telling of the movements of the gang in Indiana and Ohio after the prison break last September, said:
"We were in the Limberlost country of Gene Stratton Porter's books for a time. It's not so wild any more, yet it has plenty of isolated spots where you can hide out for a few hours to rest.
"Once we got into Ohio, everything from then on was easy. We had lots of gun battles, of cours, as we pulled the bank jobs, but we were never seriously threatened."
Jay county officers knew that the Dillinger gang was in this part of the state soon after the prison break. The gang was recognized by Walter C. Krienke, who conducts the Loblolly dining car just north of Bryant, where highways 27, 67 and 18 connect.
Krienke is a former railroad detective and his years of training enables him to spot an outlaw much quicker than the average individual. He also has a retentive memory and pictures seen of criminals are retained by his trained mind.
Krienke was not an officer of the law at the time the gang stopped at his place and he could not summon help at the time. However, officers were notified as soon as possible and a search was made in the vicinity of Bryant, but the gang was not found. It is believed the desperadoes were on their way to Ohio when they stopped at the Loblolly.
No publicity was given at the time the gang appeared at the Loblolly dining car due to the fact the outlaws might return this way into Indiana, but state police were notified and a close watch kept.
-----
My paternal cousin, Harry PIERPONT (1902-1934) was a member of the Dillinger gang. I found this article while on my last research trip to Jay County, hoping that the local paper might make mention of his connection to the area.
Whether or not the gang truly did stop in the Loblolly area, it certainly seems feasible. Pierpont, Makley and Copeland should have been familiar with the area, and it's pretty much a straight shot over to Lima.
Krienke was made a state excise officer in 1935, according to newspaper reports found on Ancestry.com

The above death certificate is for my paternal 2nd-great grandfather, John Adam Metzner (1840-1895). I obtained this copy of his death record on my most recent research trip to Jay County.
Facts that I already knew were his death date, December 4, 1895 and his place of birth as being Ohio. His obituary lists his place of birth as Licking County, Ohio. The time of death is not listed, but his obituary stated that he died at 7 o'clock in the evening, at his home in the north-east corner of Wayne township.
The death certificate named his parents as John Metzner born in Germany and Catherine Young born in France. This corresponds with other information I have.
The death certificate also states he was married. His wife, Clara (Moulton) Metzner outlived him nearly four more years.
The death certificate notes the physician was J.A. Morehouse and that the cause of death was chronic diarrhea, hepatitis, peritonitis and knitis. That does sound painful.
He was a veteran of the Civil War, having been severely wounded near Burnt Hickory during the Atlanta campaign.

Henry Martin Buys LeMaster Grocery
 |
| Source: Portland, Indiana Commercial-Review, September 26, 1933, page 1. |
Henry Martin, former auditor of Jay county, has purchased the A.R. LeMaster grocery at the corner of North Meridian and Votaw streets and is now in charge.
Mr. Martin in an announcement today of the change in proprietors, states that he will maintain the high service and quality of the former owner. The name of the place will be called "Martin's Market."
Mr. Martin is a native of Jay county and has a wide acquaintance as well as experience as he formerly conducted a store at New Corydon.
---
The A.R. LeMaster was Arthur Raymond LeMaster (1885-1971), my paternal great-granduncle.
I knew that he operated a grocery but was unaware until finding this article where it was located exactly. Now I need to dig into the directories to see if I can locate any advertisements, etc.

Research Trip Notes : Jay County, Indiana
Back on Guy Fawkes Day, I treated myself to a birthday present of genealogical research in Jay County, Indiana. It was a productive day. Over the next few weeks I hope to digest the data and update my database with my finds.
At the Jay County Health Department, I was able copies of death certificates for the following ancestors : Cora Belle (Metzner) Haley, Eli Weldon Haley, William P. Wehrly, Mary Keziah (Chew) LeMaster, and John Adam Metzner. These were ones that had been identified as missing from my files as I worked through the Exploratory Analysis series. The health department provides for $ 4.00 a "Geneology Death Record", complete with mis-spelling of genealogy. At least it is better than nothing, more on that later.
At the Jay County Clerk's Office, I was able to have the most productive and fun research experience. I had lists of items that I wanted to research from my previous trips to Jay County, and once I found the boxes where the originals were kept, the clerks let me pretty much have free reign. I was able to make several copies of court cases, though they did charge $ 1.00 per page. I was hoping to use my Flip-Pal, but it would have been too time consuming and of course nothing I wanted to copy was very small.
At the Jay County Public Library, I searched newspapers during the time period of the Dillinger Terror Gang crime spree, hoping to find mention of a local connection to Harry Pierpont. I did manage to find an article that stated the gang had passed through the Loblolly area. I also found an article about Arthur LeMaster's grocery store, and the death notice of a potential Haley relative. The reporting during the time period of 1933-34 was fascinating with all of the stories of robberies, union strikes, jail breaks, etc.
At the Jay County Historical Society museum, I was able to obtain copies of plat maps from 1881 and numerous marriage returns from the clerk's office. The society had obtained the original marriage returns and have placed them in plastic sheet protectors and are keeping them in binders in the museum. This find was a gold mine, as it was much cheaper to make copies here ($0.25) than at the clerk's office. The society is staffed by volunteers, but their museum is one of the best local history museum's I've seen. They are working on digitizing many of the local records as well.
Over the next few weeks, I intend to post some of these findings to the blog. A few of them added additional family members and provided areas for further research.
