• Tribute
To My Friend
HankHe was tall and slim, and just a trifle
lank,and was known to his friends, by the name of
"Hank,"John Henry Bauer, was his christened
name,but Henry or Hank, he was always the
same.He was quiet and pleasant, with a friendly
smile,and to call him friend, was quite worth
while.He was fair and impartial, this all of us
knew,when Hank our old friend, was boss of the
crew.He was quite unafraid, of the hardest of
work,for I've seen him myself, when he sweat like a
turk.To lighten the load, of some one of the
crew,like bosses so seldom, or if ever they
do.He would never intrude, in his neighbors
affairs,for he knew that all had their problems and
cares.And when problems of others were left strictly
alone,they would solve themselves, like he'd solved his
own.The building of roads was our friends last
trade,and none built them better, than the ones he
made.And over the highway, o'er straightway and
bend,I'll ever be thinking, of my road building
friend.And deep down in my heart, I hope and I
pray,that Hank will be boss on the road the
daythat I am wending my way to my new abode,for
there'll be no detour on a Hank made
road.Written in memory of John Henry Bauer by

Of Mr. Bauer, we quote from the Coleman Tribune of last week: "Mr. Bauer
was one of those people who make friends easily and do not intrude on
other folk's affairs. He was a competent road builder and had been
employed by Mc Nally on the building of the stretch of US-l0 East of

was well liked by his many friends and they are going to miss him very
much".Henry John Bauer was born November 24, 1876, in Ingham
county. He moved to Pleasant Valley, with his parents when he was about
three years old. After living there about four years, they moved to
Bethany township and he had lived in that vicinity practically ever since
until about 15 years ago when his road work took him to different points,
having been in Coleman about eight years.Mr. Bauer was
united in marriage to Nettie Baney of St.Louis, in 1898 and she preceded
him in death in 1920.Surviving are his six daughters, Mrs.
Clare (Helen) Holton, of Toledo, Ohio, Mrs. Burr (Rose) McLean, and Mrs.

General Notes (Husband)
Thomas L. married Mary Caroline Banks, on Oct. 16, 1875. She was small
of stature and was called 'teeny'. Times were hard in those days and
crafts were learned as a supplement to farming as a means of support.
T.L. became a craftsman in the making of small sitting chairs. Many of
them still exist today, in good condition, made without glue or nails.
He also kept a large apple orchard. Added to that, he was known as 'Bee
Larkin' because of his productive bee hives. A dram of whiskey in the
morning and one at night was the order of the day forT.L. His sons tried
to find the hiding places for his bottles but usually failed. Known as a
harsh man, he could nonetheless be helpful to those in need and was said
to be honest in character. Both he and 'Teeny' became almost deaf in
later years and constantly misunderstood each other. One incidence of
this will suffice. He once asked for a towel [Editor: he probably said,
'Where's the taal?'] and Teeny thought he said 'cow' and told him it was
in the barn! from'History of Toe River Valley' submitted by Blanche

Obituary of Anna Phelan Callaghan, Brown City Banner
----- To Her Reward ------
Mrs. Terrance Callaghan, who for the past 36 years has resided with her
husband and family half a mile west of Omard in Flynn township and who
was loved and respected by the entire community, which knew her as a kind
and devoted mother and a friend to all, departed this life, at Harper
hospital in Detroit, on Monday, Oct 8, where she had been taken on the
previous Saturday by request of Judge James Phelan of the Recorders court
of that city, who when he learned of her critical illness from an acute
attack of jaundice, insisted that she be taken to Detroit.
Mrs. Callaghan was taken ill about six weeks ago and despite the
fact that the best medical skill was procured , the patient rapidly grew
worse and was taken to Detroit as above stated, accompanied by her
daughter, Mrs. Cassie Rupp and her physician Dr. J.W. Weed. The
deceased was born in Toronto, Ont, May 20, 1846. She was twice married.
She is survived by her husband and three children by her first husband,
Mrs. Albert House of Vanderbilt, Mich, Mrs. Cassie Rupp of Lansing and
John Barber at home.
The following is taken from the Detroit Journal of Oct. 10, 1906.
There was no session in Judge Phelan's court Monday. Mrs. Anna
Callaghan, aged 59, a sister of the judge, died in Harpers hospital early
in the morning. The judge , who is wrapped up in his family, is grief
stricken. Saturday, he had his sister removed from Brown City, Mich, to
Harper hospital, never leaving her bedside until the last. It is only a
little over a year that Judge Phelan lost his mother and the present
bereavement, therefore, is a hard blow to him.
The funeral of Mrs. Anna Callaghan, sister of Judge James Phelan of the
Recorder's court, who died at Harper hospital Monday was held from the
judge's residence at No. 206 Wabash Ave, at 8 o'clock Wednesday morning
from St. Vincent's church half an hour later. The services both at the
home and the church were attended by hundreds of sorrowing friends of the
deceased and the bereaved brother and sister. The casket was almost
hidden from view by the beautiful floral tributes which spoke eloquently
of the esteem in which the deceased was held.
Judge Phelan and his sister Miss Josie Phelan, are now the only
surviving members of a Family of 10 children.
--Brown City Banner, 12 Oct 1906.

Anna Phelan married three times,
George Barrett who died in Sanilac , 1872
Amos Barbour who died in Sanilac , 1879
