	She remembers when her grandfather was scalped by the Indians. He did not die and his wife hid him in a marsh and fed him with pieces of meat from a dead cow until help came.

27 Mar 1930	Marker will Locate Old House in Oshkosh
	A marker will be placed on the site of the first house to be built by a white man in Oshkosh - if the controversy over the location of the site is settled.
	The question arose immediately after the Winnebago County Archeological and Historical Society announced intentions of marking the site.
	Members of the society, backed by history books of the Fox River valley, maintain that Webster Stanley built the first log cabin near the mouth of the river at the foot of Bowen Street in 1836.
	Mrs Marguerite Sohay and her relatives maintain that their ancestor, James Knaggs, built the first house. They fix 1827-1829 as the approximate date of his arrival here.
	Members of the society point out, however, that Knaggs built his house in what was originally West Algoma and that he was three quarters French and a quarter Oneida Indian, making him ineligible for the historical honors.
	Oshkosh was incorporated as a village in 1846 and became a city in 1853. The Archeological and Historical Society has planned to unveil and dedicate the marker June 14, Flag day. An effort will be made to have Gov Walter Kohler as the main speaker.

12 Mar 1890	Wedded a Thief - Lizzie Knaggs Becomes the Wife of a Man in Jail
	In the office of Sheriff Burgess this morning Justice Oellerich performed the ceremony which united in marriage Joseph Auerdick and Miss Lizzie Knaggs. No invitations had been issued for the event and the attendance was therefore limited to only a few friends, including Henry Barber, the lawyer who witnessed the consummation of love’s young dream, if such is the ceremony, under the most peculiar circumstances which ever surrounded a matrimonial alliance in the city of Oshkosh. No girl was ever more faithful than Lizzie Knaggs to the vows of her engagement, for she married a man with whom she cannot live for 120 days. The state of Wisconsin forbids it for the groom is in durance vile for the theft of an umbrella. Preparations for the marriage were in progress some weeks ago, but they were ruthlessly punched in the head when the groom stole $11 from his employer, John Oaks. For this he was sentenced to thirty days in jail. He was liberated yesterday and followed his release by stealing the umbrella. Miss Knaggs, however, was willing to marry him, notwithstanding his thieving propensities, hence the wedding at the courthouse this morning.

Decatur Daily Dispatch (Decatur, Illinois)

28 Nov 1889	Given to the Jury - Conclusion of the Waldroup Murder Trial in Hillsboro
	Hillsboro, Ill., Nov 27 - In the Waldroup murder case today the first witness call was Mike Lynch, who kept a saloon in Litchfield at the time Samuel Waldroup was killed. He testified that a man resembling Thomas R Knaggs came to his saloon about 6 o’clock on Sunday morning, April 1. Lynch would not swear positively that Knaggs was the man, but he resembled the man in many respects. Lynch stated that the man who was in his saloon had a heavy mustache. This part of the statement is in conflict with the statement made by Eva Waldroup that the man who came to their house with a revolver had a light mustache. This was the last witness for the people and the prosecution rested.
	The defense opened with testimony from a number of Edwardsville people, including Wendel of the Edwardsville Republican showing that eleven years ago, when Knaggs was a resident of Edwardsville, his reputation as a peaceful, quiet and law-abiding citizen was good. Mrs George Knaggs, step-mother of defendant, and George Knaggs, father of defendant, were placed in the stand for the purpose of showing that no ill feeling existed between Waldroup and Knaggs and that Waldroup’s life had been threatened by a man he had arrested when he was an officer, but Judge Phillips refused to admit it. The defense did not put Knaggs on the stand. They rested at 1.30. The case was given to the Jury at 6 o’clock and the general opinion is that a verdict will not be agreed upon before morning.

18 May 1892	Cut His Way Out
	Thomas R Knaggs, some years ago a resident of this city, whose career has been one of a good deal of notoriety has added another incident to his checkered course, by making his escape from the Insane Institute at Jacksonville, where he was undergoing treatment for insanity, while under a 90 year sentence for murder. The crime of which Knaggs was convicted was the murder of John Waldorf, at Litchfield in the summer of 1889. On the day of the murder Waldorf was called to his front door by a then unknown man and shot and killed. When police went to work on the case they learned that Waldorf had been paying attention to a woman with whom Knaggs was in love. Knaggs could not be found and it was learned had left for St Louis. Detectives were put on his tracks, and he was arrested in a St Louis hotel. He drew a revolver and fired at a detective but missed him and after a desperate struggle, was taken in a semi-conscious condition to the Four Courts. At his trial, attempts were made to prove him insane, but he was found guilty and sentenced to 99 years imprisonment. Before his removal he attempted suicide by biting into his arm but he was discovered by a guard and the wounds were tied up. After his removal to the prison he attempted suicide in the same manner by biting open the old wounds. Failing again, he feigned insanity and was sent to the Institute at Jacksonville. He in some manner made a saw and cut the iron bars of his window. The work took several nights. In the daytime he covered up the signs of his work by plastering the cut iron bars with bread blackened by rubbing it on the floor. The bars cut he made a rope out of his sheets and let himself down. He picked a hole through the brick wall surrounding the Institute and crawled out. His escape was not discovered until he had been gone about four hours. It is believed he was furnished with a place of refuge by relatives who live in St Louis.

	George C Knaggs, 53, Carpenter, a coal miner employed at mine No 2 of Mt Olive and Staunton Coal Company, Williamson, was critically injured Thursday afternoon about 4 o’clock when his automobile was driven against the pilot of the second engine of “double header” train No 11 on the Big Four Railroad. Knaggs was on his way home and the accident occurred within half a mile of his residence.
	The train was running at high speed and while members of the two engine crews reported that they heard a noise, probably at the time of the crash, they said they felt no impact. Mr Knaggs was thrown from the automobile and was found by schoolchildren on their way home.
	A part of his automobile was strewn about the crossing, but other parts piled up on the engine and were carried several miles to a point east of Wanda, where the train reduced speed to pass over a temporary structure for a new subway. The wreckage of the automobile was discovered at that time.
	Mr Knaggs was taken to St Francis Hospital at Litchfield. An examination revealed a possible fracture of the skull, internal injuries, a broken leg, injured hip and numerous lacerations. Two daughters reside in St Louis and a son, Carl W Knaggs lives in Edwardsville.

2 Jun 1955	Will Dedicate Plaque on Knaggs’ Ferry Site (Photo)
	For a 19-year period in the early 1800s, James Knaggs operated a ferry from a point now known as Rainbow Park across the Fox River to a landing on the edge of the present Riverside Cemetery. This ferry served until 1847 as the principal cross river transportation from the Green Bay area into the settlement that was to grow into the City of Oshkosh.
	Sunday afternoon, some 125 years after the first activity of the ferry, a young lad representing the fifth generation of the Knaggs family will unveil a marker designating the spot as an historical site in special ceremonies at Rainbow Park, West Algoma.
	Gift of Society - Charles Knaggs, 12-year-old son of Mr and Mrs Clarence Knaggs and a student at Campus School, will reveal the huge marker, the gift to the city from Winnebago County Historical Society, which is erected near the site where his great-great-grandfather operated the ferry.
	The huge cast aluminium plaque, measuring four and one-half feet across by six feet high and weighing about 150 pounds, was to be erected today by crews of the park department under the supervision of Park Supt. Henry Dettlaff. A timber standard, built on 10-inch cedar uprights and foot-thick cedar crosspiece, was erected in the park site Wednesday and cemented into place to hold the marker.
	A history of Knaggs Ferry and its importance in the eventual growth of “the business centre of Oshkosh” is revealed in the inscription cast in the brown grain-effect face of the huge tablet, which bears the seal of being a Wisconsin official marker - the standard of the State Historical Society.
	Honor Roll Band to Play - In Saturday’s ceremonies, which are scheduled for 2.30 pm, the Honor Roll Band, conducted by Donald Heideman, will open with musical selections and the color guard of the 42nd (Rainbow) Division, Oshkosh Chapter, will present the colors. Scout Executive Carl Wood will lead the pledge of allegiance after which Joseph Drexler, chairman of the county board of supervisors, will give the welcoming address.
	Guests and officers, expected to include representatives of the State Historical Society, mayors and village presidents of the county, and members of the park and county boards, will be introduced by Warner Guiger, a director of the county historical group.
	A history and background of the ferry site and its operation will be presented by E A Clemens, president of the county society, in the principal address of the program, after which the marker will be unveiled.
	Should inclement weather interfere Sunday, society officials report the ceremony will be rescheduled at a later date.

KNAGGS FERRY

James Knaggs, who lived across the river
from this point, operated a ferry here for
nineteen years. In 1831 John and Juliette
Kinzle, travelling on horseback from Green
Bay to their Indian Agency assignment at
Portage, were ferried across. In the summer
of 1836, Webster Stanley came by Durham boat
and built a shanty. He was soon joined by
Henry and John Gallup, who came on foot from
Green Bay. The same year, Gov Henry Dodge
and his party crossed on their way to the
Council at the Cedars, where the Menominee
Indians ceded to the United States all their
land between the Fox and Wolf rivers. Later
Gallup and Stanley moved across the river and
settled near its mouth. This located the
business center of Oshkosh. The ferry era
ended with the building of float bridges
at Main Street (1847) and Algoma (1850).

	Three Generations Present - Three generations of the Knaggs family - fourth, fifth and sixth were present at the dedication services which honoured the operational base of their ancestor. In addition to Charles, were his father Clifford, and brother Neil; Mrs Walter Dugolenski, daughter of Carl Knaggs, and her two children, Thomas and Ellen. Four other Knaggs descendents, Alfred, Raymond, Carl and Mrs Ruth Lageman of Green Bay, were unable to be present at the unveiling.

KNAGGS, Marlayne Susan -Marlayne Knaggs passed away Sunday evening, August 24th, 2008 at the Owen Sound hospital, after a brave battle with cancer. She will be deeply missed by her loving husband and best friend, Robert; her daughters Kristen and Kendra and her son, Jeffrey. She is also survived by her parents, Gwen and A. C. Whiteside, her older brother, Terry and his wife Joyce, and her younger brother, David. We could tell you where she lived and worked and all those unimportant facts, but that is not who she was. She was many things in her life: a knitter of warm afghans, a baker of pumpkin pies and an avid reader. She was an expert of care packages, a healer of wounds, a crier at airports. She liked nothing more than the chance to two-step around a dance floor with her husband, Bob. When she laughed, which was often, she laughed loudly. Marlayne was a braider of hair, a Sunday morning singer, and she planted the most beautiful gardens. She was a good daughter. Marlayne loved her children fiercely. She expressed her intense pride in Kristen, Kendra and Jeff to everyone she knew. She was a caring sister, friend and colleague. She worked hard at everything she did with no exceptions. Her lasagna is second to none. Marlayne was, above all, a nurturer. She made sure those around her were warm, fed and loved. She was our home. A graveside service will take place at the Annan Cemetery on Friday, August 29th at 11:00 a. m.. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Terry Fox Foundation in her name and may be made through the BRIAN E.

There was a fully choral ceremony. Miss L Moore played the organ. At entering hymn 266 was sung and then Psalm 90 and ultimately hymn 222.

Sat 3 Jan 1925	Death of Sir Samuel William Knaggs
	We deeply regret to announce the death of Sir Samuel William Knaggs, K.C.M.G., which occurred at the General Hospital in Barbados on Wednesday after a short illness.
	Born in England on Christmas Day 1856, he came out to this Colony in the Morning Star under the command of the late Captain Stephen Lihou, at the age of eleven in company with his sister, Mrs H. M. Bourne who was then nine years of age. He was educated at Queens Royal College and entered the Public Services in August 1875. Sir Samuel has had a distinguished career as a Civil Servant during his 44 years of service. He rose from the ranks and attained the honour of Acting Governor of this Colony on seven occasions. This success was achieved by his unremitting diligence in the discharge of his duties and the public of this Colony will never gorget his courtesy as an official and his ability for work.
	In 1886 he acted as Private Secretary to Sir William Robinson, Governor of this Colony, and again between 1889 and 1891. He has occupied the position of Private Secretary to Sir F. N. Broome and to the Governor of Hong Kong between October 1891 and July 1892. He was secretary to the Board of Education and the College Council between 1889 and 1891. In July 1892 he received the appointment of Chief Clerk of the Colonial Secretariat, and was Secretary of the Commission which sat the following year to inquire into the road system. In 1897 he acted as Commissioner for Tobago and the following year as Auditor General. He was appointed Assistant Colonial Secretary in 1900 and in the following year was promoted to the post of Receiver General and sat on the Legislative Council. In 1902 Sir Samuel acted as Colonial Secretary and occupied the position of Chief Commissioner for Port-of-Spain between 1899 and 1903. His next appointment was that of Colonial Secretary of Barbados and he acted as Governor of that Colony on four occasions between 1903 and 1906. Returning to this Colony as Colonial Secretary in 1907 he occupied that post until his retirement in January 1919. As a reward for his services to the Colony, the honour C.M.G. was conferred upon him in 1908, and in 1920 he received the further honour of being made a Knight Commander of St Michael and St George. He was married to Violet Grey, daughter of Mr J. A. Harragin and had one son and four daughters. His son, Kenneth John was killed during the Great War. His daughter Ruth married Mr G. D. Owen, recently appointed Assistant General Secretary, British Guiana, and another daughter, Phyllis, is married to Mr Cadmar. Two of his daughters, Hilda and Doris, are unmarried.
