Ancestors of Shawn Vincent

Ok, so wow.

I contacted Erik Wulff about the Larson family tree that I mentioned in my last post.



Turns out he built the information in conjunction with Sheila M. Larson from Erwin, SD. I assume this is Sheila Marie Smith who married Larry Allen Larson. She would be my mother's cousin's son's wife. So some sort of Nth cousin, M times removed from me? I never understood this sort of stuff.

He was kind enough to send me a query from his database that starts with me.

Here it is. Awesomeness.

-Shawn.

Notes for EDWARD COULSON:
From "Erwin: The First 100 Years" by Pearl Larson
Edward Coulson was born in Liverpool, England on November 21, 1864 to Joseph and Mildred Armstrong Coulson. He came with his parents to St. Charles, MN in 1881 (PL C1 - spent 1 year in MN near St. Charles where his parents were buried).
After his father's death he came to South Dakota with his mother to land northeast of Erwin. In 1883 he was only 19 years old, too young to homestead land, so he waited until 1888, when he took over the land his mother homesteaded. On May 22, 1888 Edward married Mary Golseth, sister of Knute and Martin Golseth of Erwin. (See Golseth). They had four children; Fred Coulson of Brookings, Mildred (Mrs. Francis Larson) of Lake Preston, Hattie Coulson, now living in a Bro
okings Rest Home, and Edith (Mrs. Dale Dunbar) of Laguna Beach, California. In 1900, Edward and his family moved into Erwin. (Here Edith was born. Bought the first house on the south side, east of the railroad tracks. Continued a little farming. Land west of Erwin sold to Pete Olson). Later he took a job carrying mail (for a few years). Then in 1919, he decided to move to Santa Cruz, California (Hattie and Edith moved with them). Edward and Mary lived there until their deaths, Edward on October 13, 1942. Mildred and Fred remained in South Da
kota.

Pearl Larson's notes:Mildred Armstrong Coulson purchased some land NE of Erwin, SD. Lived in sod shanty until their house was built. Edward being 19 years old could not buy the land as law stated he had to be 21. It was recorded and signed by Grover Clevelan
d in 1883 and in 1888, five years later, when Edward was 22 years old, he bought the farm from his mother.

Ed Coulson sold farm in 1916 to Pete Olson. this is now lloyd Carlsons farm. Ed worked in a hardware store in Erwin. Then carried mail part 1918 & 1919. Moved to Santa Cruz in 1919.
*********************************
See Hattie CoulsonBible Copy
Birthdate information from Hattie Coulson bible has Edward's birthdate as Nov 21, 1863, but obituary has 1864.Bible shows Edward as the last born (after Rebekah) and "Edward Coulson born Novem" is clearly original, but the "21" and probably the "1863" though on Hatties copy, appear not to be the same handwriting as the rest, so Rebekah & Edward's b
-days will take some more research.
*****************************
See 1900 Census, Hartland Twp, Kingsbury County, SD shows Edward Coulson 36, born Nov, 1863.
*****************************
Celebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary in 1938.
*****************************Regarding birthplace, a letter from Hattie Coulson to Pearl Larson July 7, 1979 says, "Frances has birthplace South Carlton, never heard that before. Pa always said Lincolnshire, but I belive that ending "shire" means country or township a
s we have here." Also, "I remember pa saying when they came to New York, some went to Canada, who were they?"

Notes for JOSEPH HENERY COULSON:
From "Erwin: The First 100 Years" in a story by Pearl Larson Joseph Coulson and Mildred Armstrong Coulson came from Liverpool, England to the United States in 1881. They had 11 children: William (never married), John, George (never married), Henry (Frank and Bert Coulson's dad), Thoms (George and A
lys Coulson's dad), Charles (never married), Robert (Alfred Coulson's father), Edward (Fred, Mildred, Hattie and Edith's father), Rebecca (Mrs. Fred Waby) (Mrs. Myrtie Marquardt's mother), Mary (Mrs. Tim Waby), and Ann (Mrs. Billy Brown).
Joseph passed away in 1882, near St. Charles, Minnesota. Mildred came to South Dakota with her son in 1882, and homesteaded northeast of Erwin. They recorded the first claim in 1883.

PL Coulson notebook: "Dorothy Chase tried to find Ed's dad's grave, but church burned and so did the records, no head stone."

Family Stuff

I just found a couple of awesome websites relating to my family.

On my mother's side, the Larsons are from Denmark (my mother's mother). A family tree of this family since emmigrating from Denmark to the United States can be found here:



Me and my sister are even on the list -- I always wonder how people find this stuff out. :-)

On my father's side, my father's father's father (my great-grandfather), Alfons Vincent made several trips back and forth to Belgium. Ship manifests and signatures are on this website:



Very awesome stuff. :-)

In other news (I haven't updated in a while here - as always, see the Four Horse Haven site for news) - work is going well, I'm now a team lead of around 10 people (my team keeps getting bigger). :-)

Working around the house, recently did a few minor projects that make a big difference.

I made a collared shirt, that turned out quite well.

The dogs and goats are happy and healthy.

Life is pretty good, all around.

BMI, Fitness, and Mortality

I know I've blabbed about this before, but I've been thinking about it again, and learned some new things.

Obesity isn't a significant health risk. People think it is: you keep hearing "lose weight and you'll be healthier". But this doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

Turns out, if you look at any actual study (look here, here, here, or here; or do your own search for "BMI fitness mortality"), obesity isn't the problem at all: fitness levels are.

Where does the confusion come from? It's a basic stats error. There is certainly a CORRELATION between a high BMI and mortality rates, but a high BMI doesn't CAUSE health problems.

To put it another way, if you're overweight and fit, you don't have a problem.

I tried and failed, but if somebody could find any study (serious study, with more than a thousand participants) that contradicts this argument, I would LOVE to see it.

This all makes me mad, because this 'overweight=unhealthy' argument is used to justify a lot of social injustices, and it's bullshit.

Nuff said.

The past while...

Wow - almost 2 months since the last update. Well, update here, anyway...

Most of the updates these days are over on the Four Horse Haven site - pretty much our whole lives are wrapped into this place now, and the few things that aren't are usually posted there anyway. :-)

We've settled in well at this new place. The dogs love it here, the job is wonderful, and it's nice to be able to look out your backyard and see fields and mountains, rather than other backyards. :-) We're clearing away land and looking into fencing options next.

Work is fun -- I've been there nearly 4 months. Not long after my 3 month probation was up, I got a sort of promotion: I'm now a team lead of a team of 4 people (including myself). It was really gratifying, I'm enjoying the role and think I can make a difference there.

Lisa and Jessica went away this weekend to Toronto, to drop Jessica off at Ryerson for her first year at university. Scary, sad, happy, and exciting all at the same time.

As a result, I have a whole bunch of free time: I'm staying here looking after the dogs. To make things more interesting, it's raining off and on, so my default activity (clearing land with the grass blade on the weedwhacker) is off the agenda.

So I've done most of the things I've wanted to do for a long time off my list, and it's not even 3:30 on Saturday yet. :-) I'm not used to having so much free time. It's actually nice -- I might take a nap later -- but I'm not sure I'd want it every day like this. :-)

Anyway, as time goes forward, posts will still probably be focused on the house blog -- I just thought I'd pop in here and make a quick update.

Four Horse Haven

We're moved into our new house, the old house is closed, and life is pretty sweet right now.

There's a new blog for the new house at:

We're slowly getting settled in.

And... the weekend's done.

Lisa went back to Kitchener this morning. :-(

But only another few days, and it's Moving Day! I'm flying back on Friday, and I think the truck is coming out Saturday or Sunday. Yay! I'll get to sleep on a real mattress out here, and we'll be moved into our new house. A Huge Relief, I'll say.

Tonight I popped back to the nasty basement to do some laundry and pack up a few last things. There's still a carload of stuff to take out of there, but it's all pretty much packed up.

HOT today. Walking to the basement from work was brutal, under the beating sun. Laundry took forever, but I ate while I was doing it, and read my book (just finished Deception Point by Dan Brown. Excellent book).

The taxi back here was from DJ's Taxi, and it was a much better experience than last week. Rather than waiting an hour and a half, the guy was there in 10 minutes, and was really fun. Plus the fare was cheaper than West Way. Go figure. :-)

One more week... one more week... one more week... :-)

YAY YAY YAY YAY!!

Lisa's coming here today!

Could it be any awesome-er!?

Thursday, June 21, 2007

Wow.

It's been quite the weekend / week, again. :-)

As I said, I went back to Kitchener on Friday night: it's a real quick flight. We went over to Lisa's parents house for supper on Saturday night, and did some work around the house.

On Sunday we drove back to Four Horse Haven.

This place is incredible. :-)

Anyway, we start to work on the place, cutting up the carpet in the living room. Nasty stinky crusty carpet. I'm guessing at least 50 years old. Underneath it is this faux laminate vinyl. We figure that it's glued down. However, once we get the carpet up, we discover that the vinyl is just nailed down. Around the edge. Underneath that was old linoleum, backed with horse hair padding. And under that, unglued, untouched barn board floor. I love the family who owned this house. :-)

That, of course, took a lot of time, over a few days.

Also, the applicances came: GE Profile stainless steel range and bottom-freezer french door fridge, and GE front-load washer and dryer. The dryer wouldn't fit, so we now have a working washer but not dryer. We've got to remove/move the sink in the laundry room, and all should be well.

Looked into new toilets. I think we're getting new Toto toilets put in throughout the house. We've ordered them, but they've got to be ordered (they had them in stock, but their in-stock models were damaged).

Lisa went back on Wednesday - she filled the freezer here at the house with frozen dinners for me. I just ate one. Mmmm. Delicious. :-)

Lisa found this: we figure that the house is the Gothic Cottage style. Apparently there were plans in the Canadian Farmer magazine in 1865, and there were thousands built. That's awesome. I want those plans. :-)

Lots of cleaning, lots of work.

Fireflies every night, surrounding the house.

3 playful groundhogs that live under our Garage Used for Storage Needs Some Work, that run and hide whenever they notice us.

A lone deer, loping through the tall grass along our back fence line.

Cows visible from our windows.

Alpacas down two houses.

A view that goes on for miles of fields, straight to the mountains.

Huge mature trees.

Fresh air, beautiful breeze...

And SPACE. Tons and tons of SPACE.

Four Horse Haven, indeed.

Four Horse Haven - Updated!

Wow, what a weekend.

Lisa arrived here on Sunday as planned, and we went on our walk through of the new house.

The guy had cleaned up everything: the house was empty, all the old dead farm equipment and cars were removed, the lawn was mowed, the floors vacuumed. There was a great big dumpster in the yard filled with garbage. It was a nice treat.

We went on our walk through with our agent, and another couple plus father showed up to take a look at the hot tub. We don't want it, they want it, they're willing (maybe) to chop it up and remove it from the house to get a hot tub for cheap. Works out good for everybody. They think it's possible, and will get back to us after we close in Kitchener.

The house is wonderful: it's remarkable how much it reminds me of Villa Villatrolla on Clyde Road in Cambridge. Same old house, same smell. Similar road and distance from it. Similar fencing around. Even the carpet/lino/bare floor ratios are about the same. We loved that house. I love this one, too. :-)

We took some pictures... I'll offload mine and post them. Mostly of the yard and outside of the house.

:-) It's going to be a fun house to decorate for Hallowe'en.

That night, we went to Mexicala Rosa's for supper -- I love that Kanata has mexican food! :-) Then we stopped in at Home Depot and looked at fencing and flooring and lighting, and finally went back to my nasty basement to go to sleep. We watched episode 1 of the next season of Stargate that Lisa brought.

Oh - she also brought me the latest Martha Stewart, a Lee Valley catalog, and a book: Horsekeeping on Small Acrages - that looks really good.

The next morning (Monday), I went to work, and at noon we went off to the lawyer to sign hundreds of papers that ultimately mean that we're going to buy a house. :-) We weren't that happy with the lawyer we used, but in the end, it seems to have worked out ok.

We ate in the food court in the lawyer's office - chinese food, that wasn't too bad, really, and then I went back to work.

While I was at work on Monday, Lisa was busy too - she got all new GE appliances ordered: stainless steel fridge (large, freezer on the bottom, french doors) and stove (flat top, convection, self clean), and front load washer/dryer. Plus a new matching microwave. They're coming next Tuesday, I think.

Plus she investigated fencing and lighting and all sorts of things for the new house.



That night we went to Carleton Place, and the Eating Place - our favorite place to eat. :-) I had the pizza, Lisa had the hot turkey sandwich. Delicious, all around.

The next day (Tuesday), I went to work, and Lisa dealt with the lawyers all day, doing her heroic best to get the various involved lawyers to work together and get closing done on time. And she squeaked it out -- she got the keys at 5:00pm.

We went out to eat at Baton Rouge, and went out to the house that evening. The idea was to change the locks and sleep over.

When we got there, there was this note:
June 12, 2007

Dear Lisa & Shawn,

Welcome to your new home! I thought you would like to know a little bit about it.

This house was built more than 140 years ago on a foundation 1/4 of a mile or so southeast of where it currently sits. It was moved here in 1950 by my father, using a team of 4 work horses. It is sided in red brick and originally had a porch across the front and a summer kitchen in the back. In 1994 I had all of the renovations done that you see today including the bathroom and a new well was drilled.

We have owned this home and land all this time. If the walls could speak, they would tell you many happy and sad stories of generations of our family. It has been very difficult for me to leave this home, but it is time to move on. My wish is that it will be a happy haven for you both, and that you will spend many joyful and productive years creating your own stories for these walls to record.
And didn't that make us teary. :-)

Setting to take the back door deadbolt out, we immediately ran into problems. There weren't any screws. :-) You get the collar around the bolt taken off, and there's just these two tiny holes, one on either side of the bolt.

Lisa and her internet skillz to the rescue: turns out this is a Lori-style deadbolt, and you need to use a 5/64 allen key to take it out.

So, back to Home Depot to buy an allen key (because, really, who has one of those!?), and back to the house to fiddle forever trying to get this to work. After probably a half an hour of failing to take it off with the key, I finally worked out the trick, and got the back lock off. The new one was easy to install, and life was good.

The front door one was hardly any trouble at all.

During this, it got very dark outside (it was probably 10:30 or maybe later by the time we were done the locks). And what did we see in our yard but thousands and thousands of fireflies - all through our yard and the surrounding fields. It was breathtaking.

There's so many bugs (all sorts - big ones, little ones, fireflies, june bugs, deer flies, mosquitoes, strange bugs I've never seen before) around that house. They're attracted to the porch light, and come in the house. I'm not sure if there's any way of dealing with that... probably not. It's bizzare, though.

Then we went back to my troll basement to get bedding to sleep over. We got back to the house, only to discover that I'd (stupidly) forgotten the power adapters to re-inflate the Coleman mattresses. SO, back to the troll basement, picked up the adapters, then a quick stop at Burger King for food - only to discover they're not open at 11:30 at night - so off to McDonald's because by now we were STARVING. :-)

Then we showered (it was bloody hot yesterday, and humid. The A/C at the new house, though weak, and the shower were extremely welcome luxuries).

Finally, we went to bed in our new house. :-) We're not homeless any more! Yay!

I love it.

Then, this morning, we dropped some stuff back here at my troll basement (having no car, I can't really live at the new place until we're moved in for real later this month -- it's just a bit too far), and I went to work, and Lisa made the 6 hour drive back to Kitchener. She got back safe and sound: I Skyped with her earlier this evening.

Yay yay! It's the beginning of the end, now. Friday evening I fly back to Kitchener for Father's Day and final house prep, Lisa comes back with me by car later in the weekend, and stays a couple days or so to receive the new appliances.

The next weekend she comes back, and it's our big weekend to do work in the new house. I'm not sure what we'll all do, but for sure it'll involve dog fencing of some description, and probably lots of cleaning and work (probably including some critical electrical work -- there's some fixtures that really need changing right away -- maybe including ripping up carpet and stuff, but that depends on what we decide to do).

Then the next weekend is our big moving weekend, with the truck and Lisa's parent coming up to help, and Jessica and the dogs and... and everything.

And then we're moved. But the time will go by quickly, because we're busy, and Lisa and I can be together quite a bit more than we have been for this whole saga since I've moved out here.

Big fun. It's VERY nice to be on the other end of this.

Oh: and the house's name? We've had Villa Villatrolla, Casa del Arbre, and this one is:

Four Horse Haven.

It just fits.

Sunday, June 10, 2007

Oh yeah...

I forgot this til now, but it's awesome..

We have confirmed that Rogers High Speed works at the new place, so that's another bonus. :-)

Lisa's on her way!

I got a text message from Lisa, apparently she'll be here at around a quarter after 1. :-) Yay!

We've got our walkthrough this afternoon at 5, where a couple that may want to take the hot tub will come along. I'm looking forward to seeing the house again. I think we may take some more pictures, too, so stay tuned for that.

Then tomorrow, we've got our closing meeting with the lawyer: the only known bump, a lack of septic records, was dealt with last week.

Then Tuesday, we close, get the keys, and own our new house! Very exciting. :-) We've already got some supplies purchased for our immediately pressing home reno projects.

I'm trying to figure out what kind of light fixtures would suit a house of this era, while still being something that we really like. A lot of old-style fixtures are either impractical, or are very expensive, or look a lot like 70's light fixtures, which both of us hate. Decisions decisions. :-)


Yesterday I went out to Centrum, ate a nice steak at Jack Astors (which is a pretty boring Ottawa place to eat, but I've eaten at most of the Centrum places now already, and didn't want to eat someplace that Lisa would want to eat with me when she's here the next couple of days).

I bought another book to read: Dan Brown's Deception Point, which the cashier at Chapters said was his best book, and so far has been excellent. I like Dan Brown.

Then I was going to go to a movie, but the only thing I hadn't yet seen was Oceans 13, which I dunno... is maybe not worth the $12. So I went to Rogers Video instead, and got three movies for $9: The Bourne Identity, Master and Commander: the Far Side of the World, and Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Yesterday I watched Bourne Identity -- I've meant to watch this film for years, and it was excellent, like I hoped.

Last night I started watching Master and Commander, and it got late and I got tired. So I finished it this morning. Meh. I enjoyed it, but more as a documentary of shipboard life and potential content for gaming sessions than as an entertaining movie in its own right. It just didn't really hold my interest.

I still have Indiana Jones to watch. We'll see if I get to it before I have to return them. Plus Lisa is brining me 2 more Star Gate SG-1's to watch, so I might be saturated for video content. :-)

After I finished the movie this morning, I futzed around, and finally pulled out some miniatures to paint. I got a coat of paint on a few of them -- pretty fun. I'll post some pics here once I get some painted. I haven't painted in a long time, and I was never great, and I fear I'm even worse now. :-) Plus a lot of my paint is a bit spoiled, which makes it harder to do a nice job.

I need to find some different paint. The GW paints I've got don't seal properly without a lot of fiddling around, and so the paint doesn't last like I think it should. I should look at Fandom II and see what they have.

I especially enjoyed painting the base coat on a couple of dollar store dinosaurs I primed a few months ago. :-) I think they'll be fun to paint.

Half an hour until Lisa arrives! Yay! :-)

My Troll Home.

The Trollish Basement


So I took some pictures of my trollish basement for all to enjoy.

Now you can see what I mean when I talk about stuff. Nearly all of my blog posts are written in this room these days.

Looking at the pictures of food has made me hungry. :-)

I think I'll put away the rest of my laundry and go out to eat today.

My day so far

Today was the day to clean up and organize my room in preparation for Lisa coming. :-) I don't want her to think I live in squalor.

So I:
  • did my outstanding laundry (including my sheets!)
  • vacuumed using the awkward and heavy central vac
  • took out my garbage
  • washed all my dishes*
  • went through my Food Box and reorganized everything in it
  • put away my clean laundry nicely
  • organized all my Stuff, putting it in tidy places.
My room almost looks habitable now.

*this was an adventure. I took them upstairs to the kitchen to wash them. At the end, I turned off the water and heard -- water noises. I looked down, and lots of water was coming out of the cupboard beneath the sink.

Leak.

So, I got paper towels, cleaned up the mess, and then spent a long time tracing down the leak. Turns out the seal on the handheld spray device is gone, so when the water is turned on, it leaks like crazy.

So I cleaned it all up, put a note on the sink saying not to use it, and my job there was done. :-) I'm glad it's not my house. The landlord can deal with it.

Finally, I'm mostly done. It's only 11:10, so I made pretty good time. I started at around 10:00, after I talked with Lisa and took a shower. The place was due for a cleanup, and it looks pretty good now (well, as good as a place can be without furniture, everything stored in random boxes, etc.

Actually, now would be a pretty good time to take some photographs. :-) I'll stage the place, and then do that next. What fun! :-) I'm pretty sure it'll be entertaining to look back at photos of this place in years to come.
