151 A Principal of Principles
By: History Department of McMenamins

As has been mentioned here in the past, we are in the process of renaming several of the Kennedy School guestrooms to celebrate the people who attended, worked and taught at the school.

And because it is Back to School Day for children across the land, it seems apt to recall one of Kennedy's former principals. Here is the history plate that will be installed in the Gertrude Ramage room.


Was there ever a better name for an elementary school principal than "Gertrude Ramage"? It is a strong name, a slightly scary name, a name that commands respect. All excellent qualities in a principal.

RamageMrs. Ramage was the head of Kennedy School from 1967 through 1973. She had "an easily recognizable tone" of voice, one that struck fear in kids' hearts. Mrs. Ramage would patrol the hallways during class, peeking in through the door windows - the students were never quite sure if she was checking up on them or on their teachers. Not even her flower-print dresses softened her reputation as "a stern old lady." Nicknamed "Rampage," you did not want to be on the receiving end of one of her lectures.

And woe be unto any student overheard using the words "shut up," one of her most despised grievances. She would "go ballistic," a former student remembered. Kids being kids, they'd push Mrs. Ramage's buttons - while walking by her in a group, they'd dare a kid to mumble "shut up" and then they'd all take off running. When asked decades later about why this particular phrase riled her so, Gertrude responded, "It was just impolite and rude. I tried to teach a little manners, but it didn't seem to help." To the contrary, kids were still gleefully recalling this lesson 25 years after the fact! Well done, Mrs. Ramage. When asked if she thought the children had been scared of her, she said, "I hope not!" but then acknowledged, "Kids knew not to cross me."

The occasional bold child was no problem for the veteran administrator. But what did present a formidable challenge for Gertrude Ramage as well as all Portland school administrators, staff and students of the 1960s and '70s was the unprecedented change brought about by district overcrowding, the creation of a middle school system, and especially integration implemented by a new bussing program. Beginning in the late 1960s, students from underperforming neighborhood schools were bussed, sometimes across town, to schools touted by the district as offering better opportunities and instruction, including Kennedy. In less skilled hands, this forced student shake-up might have proved disastrous, but Mrs. Ramage recalled that her student body and faculty had very few problems. "You tried not to think of them as white, black, brown or green - they were children."

The early '70s ushered in another major change: school closures. As early as 1971, the Portland School District declared that due to a steep drop in enrollment, some schools would have to be shuttered. Cited as one of the oldest schools still in use and showing signs that dry rot and deterioration had taken a toll, Kennedy was among those singled out for closure.

There was a great outcry among alumni and neighbors, protesting the district's plan, which served to slow the process to the point that Mrs. Ramage retired as principal in December 1973 before any action was taken. Staff and faculty threw her a grand afternoon retirement party. But perhaps most appreciated were the many notes from current and former students, all written using the best of manners, no doubt.

A year and a half later in June 1975, the long-impending closure of Kennedy School became reality. It would never again re-open as Kennedy Elementary; however, following two more decades of community effort, red tape and negotiation, the building was saved from the wrecking ball when Mike and Brian McMenamin's proposal to revitalize the property was accepted. The school reopened under the McMenamins flag in October 1997. Mrs. Ramage returned for the occasion, and with her typical desert-dry wit, she gracefully acknowledged the brew kettle with her face painted on it (see above), but quickly added she would not be sampling any of the contents.

Today, the hallways formerly presided over by the stoic Mrs. Ramage are alive with fun and merriment. But don't ever let us hear you say "shut up." We'll send you right to the Detention Bar out of respect for Principal Ramage's rule.

153 A story is told concerning the birth of Matilda Merritt, now Mrs. Davis, the first white child born in the township, which may illustrate not only the friendliness of the Indians, but also the humanity in the heart of the 'race as a whole. Mrs. Merritt was alone, her husband and father in-law having gone to a raising. Two old squaws living near, discovered her in the midst of travail and pain ; they came to her relief, bringing their experience, and, with hearts full of sympathy, and kind and tender hands, performed the delicate service of midwives, in this her hour of sorrow.

186 Abraham and Marie purchased William Henrie?s house in 1848. This house is called ?The Creole House? and has a history of the family living there for about 3 decades. William Henrie also purchased two other parcels of land of 40 acres each in 1838 and they are recorded as being in Kaskaskia, Illinois.

In 1840 William Henrie built a grist and flour mill which later he sold (in 1848) to his son-in-law Abraham H. Lee who, with Lee?s partner, Frank Brickey, upgraded the mill and reopened it in the late 1850?s. Abraham?s occupation was also a miller, like his father-in-law and he and his partner Frank Brickey ran Brickey & Lee grist and flour mill for several years.

William Henrie served as Justice of the Peace until age 65, in Prairie du Rocher until 1860. William died Aug 1865 but it is unsure as to where he died, probably somewhere in Illinois or Missouri near Prairie du Rocher. Marie Henrie died April 1877 in St. Louis, Missouri. Both are buried in Calvary Cemetery, St. Louis, St. Louis Co., Missouri.

Marie Josephine (nee Henrie) and Abraham Lee had several children. Sometime after the birth of the last child Marie became ill and was infirm until her death in 1867.

An interesting story and a bit of fortune and misfortune came upon the Abraham Lee family. In the spring of 1867Abraham purchase a lottery ticket for $5.oo for a chance on a prize in the Chicago Crosby Opera House national raffle which included the Opera house itself, several valuable paintings, and other items. It was not known for several days that Abraham was actually the winner of the opera house itself. Word was sent to Prairie du Rocher via telegram and a fast horse from St. Louis. Due to Marie?s ill health Abraham could not go to Chicago immediately, but when he did the decision was to sell the opera house back to Mr. Crosby for $200,000 instead of taking possession. $200,000 was a fortune at the time. (The Crosby Opera House was later destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire in 1871) Lee sold his interest in the mill to his business partner and built a beautiful mansion fitted out very expensively, with colored glass windows, special woods, huge rooms, and a library filled with books of special interest. Sadly, Marie Josephine Lee did not live long to enjoy their new family status as she died in September 1867. Abraham followed a couple of years later of an apparent heart attack while on a trip to Cincinnati, Ohio. The mansion that Abraham built fell into disrepair and was destroyed in a fire in 1970.

The death of Abraham and Marie left only one child at his majority and that was Roger Samuel Lee (RELIII great-great grandfather). The other Lee children, being minors, were put under guardianship of their grandmother Marie Henrie, who was residing in St. Louis. Here they stayed until their majority or entered upon their own lives. Roger S. Lee enlisted in the military at the age of 19 in 1866 just a year before his mother?s death and married 1870 in Buchanan County, Missouri.

191 According to a pedigree chart found in the records of the Henthorne nuns, Captain John Price, 1608 -1659 who came to Maryland with Calvert Member of the House of Burgesses from the beginning. In charge of Gov. Calvert's estate inventory @ his death 30 Jul 1647. 1647 assignment of Pinnace from Leonard Calvert to John Price. Emigrated 1636 on "The Ark." From the chart it appears that Captain John Price had a step-son, Thomas, a son Elisha, and a son Roswell (Russell) Sage Price, and probably other unnamed children. He was probably of Welsh descent.
SIBLINGS: He might have been one of 13 children. He might have been the youngest. He might have had a sibling, Mordecai.
======================================
Notes for John PRICE Captain

Regarding Black and White John Price
Two Adventurers bearing the name of John Price were transported by the Ark, both by the Wintour brothers, one being styled "white" John Price and the other "black" John Price. Circumstances and knowledge of conditions of the times refute the oft repeated statement that the Black John Price was a Negro. The only Negroes of that period outside of Africa were slaves or bondsmen and in the 17th and 18th centuries Negro slaves were without a family name, as decreed by law and custom. It is therefore believed that one was of a light complexion and the other of a dark complexion, thus being styled as "white" and "black" for differentiation.

To follow out the careers of these two Adventurers in Maryland has been difficult, and no further reference has been found in the Archives of Maryland to identify these men other than the claims of Ferdinando Pulto in 1639 for land rights by assignment from the Wintour brothers.

At the opening day of the General Assembly of January 25, 1637/8, a "John Price of St. Maries hundred planter" appeared and was given the right of a seat. (1) Following out the career of this John Price, it proves definitely that he was the later Captain John Price and then Colonel John Price who emigrated in 1636 as the following will show: (2)

"Capt John Price came and demanded 100 Acres of Land for Transporting One Able Man Servant Vizt Richard Brown in this Province in the year 1637 and 200 acres more for 2 other Able Men Servants Vizt Thomas Jackson and William Hardidge Transported by him into this Province in the year 1636 and 100 More for Transporting one other Man Servant vizt Edward Williams in the Year 1644 and 100 acres for Transporting himself into this Province about 11 years since."

The month and day of the foregoing instrument is December 20, but the year is not noted, but from circumstances of nearby entries, it is believed to be the year 1648.

The question therefore arises whether this John Price is one of the two who was transported by the Wintours and had returned to England or another part of the British possessions in America and reentered on or about 1636 transporting two servants. It is known that at least two of the Adventurers on the Ark returned to England and brought back their families, but their names were of a certain character that no doubts existed as to identity. In this instance one is dealing with the extremely common name of John Price, and it will always leave some doubt in the mind of the genealogist whether the John Prices, the two Adventurers, succumbed to an early death in the Province, or whether one returned to England and emigrated in 1636 and ultimately distinguished himself in the military affairs of the Province and was appointed a member of His Lordship's Council.

In 1648 John Price deposed to be aged 40, so he was born in or about 1608 and was in his late twenties when he emigrated in 1636. He signed his name and there are no other known instances of a John Price making his mark to indicate that there may have been two contemporary John Prices.

On February 18, 1638/9, he was domiciled in St. Michael's Hundred and was elected with James Cauther by the freemen to the first elected General Assembly held in the Province. (3) In 1642 he was assessed 46 lbs. tob. for the accounts of the Province, and at the same Assembly his proxy was held by Captain Thomas Cornwalys. In the expedition against the Sesquihanowes Indians, commanded by Captain Henry Fleete in 1644, Fleete was given instructions by John Lewger, Secretary of the Province, to consult with several men in all matters of importance, among whom was John Price, Planter. (4)

On January 20, 1647/8, Captain John Price appeared at the General Assembly holding eight proxies from St. George's Hundred. (5) Four days later he assigned his proxies to Mr. William Thompson. In 1648 he was appointed to the Upper House by the Lord Proprietary, (6) but soon lost his seat when the Puritans took over. In that year he was styled "Muster Maister" of the Province.

His name was totally absent from the activities of the Province during the Puritan usurpation, thus denoting his alignment with the Proprietary Party. Upon the restoration of legitimate power by the Calverts, or on January 12, 1659/60, Cecilius, Lord Baltimore, appointed "our dear friend & Councellor Coll John Price" to the Upper House. (7)

On June 17, 1647, he was the Captain of the Fort at St. Inigoes and stated that there was a great need of corn for the maintenance of the soldiers. In the same year he was one of the appraisers of the personal estate of Governor Leonard Calvert.

He attended a session of the Council in December 1660. On February 10, 1660/1, he drew up his last will and testament which was probated on March 11, 1660/1, in St. Mary's County by William Wilkinson, Thomas Dent, and William Hatton. (8) He left a step-son and an only child, Anne Price, a minor at the time of his death.

193 According to Lois McCarthy, Thomas H Evans was born in Woodford Co, KY (near Versailles). He left there between 1825 & 1828 and moved to Lexington, Lafayette Co, MO. He moved from there to Platte Co, MO about 1840. Thomas came to Oregon from Platte Co, MO by wagon train in 1852 and arrived in Oregon City on Sept 20, 1852 according to the Donation Land Claim papers and other documents of James Cooper, who was a part of the Evans wagon train along with along with Thomas's daughter - "Sena" Evans Cooper and their son - Thomas.

The Evans wagon train departed from St. Joseph, MO. Thomas H. Evans was captain of the wagon train with which his family traveled. The trip took six months into the fall of the year. They traveled the Old Oregon Trail and took the Barlow Cut-off around Mt. Hood. They first settled near Oregon City on the Willamette River and moved to Marion County near Sublimity in 1853 where Captain Evans took a 320 acre donation claim. He lived on this claim till his death in 1869.

T. H. Evans is listed in the 1860 Census of Marion County, Oregon, his age is 52, farmer, born in KY, it gives dwelling/family #353-2912, also listed is: N. Evans, 49, F, born KY; M. C. Evans, 15, F, born MO; R. Smith, 12, M, born MO.

Thomas married Nancy Donaldson on Jan 1, 1830 in Lafayette County, MO. The marriage was performed by Rev. Hugh R. Smith and witnessed and consented to by Nancy's mother. This is recorded in Bk B, Pg 3 of the county records. They were supposed to have been in MO in 1839 and purchased a homestead in 1843.

He was a Mason & is buried with his wife at ROCKY HILL CEMETERY on Waldo Hill, northwest of Almsville. The tombstone has a Masonic insignia. This cemetery is also known as the "Anderson Lone Fir Cemetery".

His will was filed with Marion Co, OR as probate file #352. Will dated Dec 22, 1868. Executors: George S. Downing & James Cooper, 4 FEB 1869. Heirs: Seny Ann Cooper, 37, Benton Co (Husband James Cooper); Rebecca I. Kinder, 34, Benton Co, (husband F. P. Kinder); Sarah Jane Brown, 32, Benton Co (husband - James D. Brown); Missouri A.

195 Adam Campbell and wife Elizabeth settled on a 300 acre tract of land on the South side of Hunting Creek near the Wilkes and Surry County line, in Rowan County, sometime prior to 1775. The Campbell Cemetery is located on this tract and is a historical landmark in the area. Campbell, Percival Adam (I3857)
 
196 After checking out the Portrait and Biographical Record of Buchanan and Clinton Counties, Missouri on-line and reading the story about John K. Johnson, which mentions that he raised six orphans, I am convinced that John and Mary did not raise their future son-in-law Roger Lee, but instead his five children. Martha's obituary says she left five small children, and from the 1880 census, we know that the first three were William, Mary and John. I think it's pretty conclusive that the other two (younger) would have been Myra and Roger, especially since the Lee orphans, mentioned in the Biographical Record, are in order: William H. Lee, Mary Maud Lee, John J. Lee, Myra E. Lee and Roger S. Lee.
