Father*Preston Alfred Jewett2 b. 23 Sep 1858, d. 14 Aug 1924
Mother*Rose Beebe2 b. Oct 1872
Birth*1901Nellie Lizzie Jewett was born about 1901 in California.1,2 
Marriage*3 August 1931She married William George Wymore, son of Samuel Porter Wymore Jr. and Etta May Moffett, on 3 August 1931 in Vale, Malheur County, Oregon.1 
(Daughter) Missing Person11 August 1957 On Sunday, 11 August 1957, her mother, Rose (Beebe) Jewett, wandered away from a family berry-picking camp in rugged country near the Elk River in north-central Idaho. An organized search for her had begun as soon as she was reported missing, It was called off on Tuesday, then resumed on Wednesday at the request of her daughters, Nellie Wymore and Eula Johnson. Nelllie, who lived in Boise, Idaho, described her mother as an elderly 85-year-old woman, who was "quite active", although her memory had been failing. Nellie believed her mother may have been picked up along a highway, then left off somewhere, and that with her memory failing, she may have forgotten who she was or where she was from. Nellie said her mother was about five feet tall, weighed about 117 pounds, and had white hair. At the time of her disappearance, she had no money with her.

Newspapers reported that many searchers and woods workers had been released from their jobs to aid in the hunt for the missing woman, and that a helicopter had also been in use. Some searchers reported on Wednesday that they had combed the area so thoroughly it appeared doubtful the elderly Mrs. Jewett was anywhere near the spot she wandered away from on Sunday.

By Thursday, October 17, Rose had still not been found. Newspapers reminded their readers that the frail, elderly woman had been missing for two months, since August 11, in the heavily timbered mountain country near Elk River. They reported that Rose's daughter, Eula Johnson of Juliaetta, Idaho, was offering a reward for the finding of her mother who had disappeared while on a family huckleberry picking expedition. Eula would pay $500 for information leading to the finding of her mother alive and $300 for information leading to the discovery of her body. Volunteers and deputies, aided by planes and bloodhounds, had made a long and extensive search of the area without turning up any trace of Mrs. Jewett. There had been speculation the woman might have been given a ride by a motorist, but officers had checked out all tips without result. Mrs. Johnson stated she had not given up hope that her mother would be found alive.

Two of Rose's sons, Joseph and Hubert, had predeceased their mother's disappearance in 1957. In addition to Rose's two daughters, Nellie and Eula, who were featured in the newspaper stories regarding her disappearance, five of Rose's other children were living. Clara, Preston, William and Nora also lived in Idaho at the time, and Bulah, who had lived in Idaho much of her life, had moved to Oregon after her second marriage in 1955.3,4 
(Wife) Death17 August 1977Nellie became a widow when William George Wymore died on 17 August 1977 at age 79.5

William J. Jewett1,2

b. 25 October 1894
Father*Preston Alfred Jewett1 b. 23 Sep 1858, d. 14 Aug 1924
Mother*Rose Beebe1 b. Oct 1872
Birth*25 October 1894William J. Jewett was probably born on 25 October 1894 in Lake City, Modoc County, California, as reported on his 1917 draft registration card.1,3,4 
Name VariationHis full name was William James Jewett.3 
Never Married* On the 1950 census, William was recorded as never married.5 
Census US 1950*4 April 1950William J. Jewett and his mother, Rose (Beebe) Jewett, were enumerated on the 1950 census taken on 4 April 1950 on Slate Creek Road, Slate Creek, Idaho County, Idaho. William was 64 years of age, the head of his household, had never married and worked as a rancher on his own account. He had worked 50 hours the week before the census was taken. His mother, Rose, was a widow, recorded as age 86, although was likely 77 years of age, and her work was the home's housework. William's line item was selected for additional information from which we learned that the highest grade of school he had attended was the 5th grade of elementary school, and that he had not completed that grade; and also that in 1949 he had worked 52 weeks and that he had served in the U.S. Armed Forces during World War I.5 
(Child) Missing Person11 August 1957 On Sunday, 11 August 1957, his mother, Rose (Beebe) Jewett, wandered away from a family berry-picking camp in rugged country near the Elk River in north-central Idaho. An organized search for her had begun as soon as she was reported missing, It was called off on Tuesday, then resumed on Wednesday at the request of her daughters, Nellie Wymore and Eula Johnson. Nelllie, who lived in Boise, Idaho, described her mother as an elderly 85-year-old woman, who was "quite active", although her memory had been failing. Nellie believed her mother may have been picked up along a highway, then left off somewhere, and that with her memory failing, she may have forgotten who she was or where she was from. Nellie said her mother was about five feet tall, weighed about 117 pounds, and had white hair. At the time of her disappearance, she had no money with her.

Newspapers reported that many searchers and woods workers had been released from their jobs to aid in the hunt for the missing woman, and that a helicopter had also been in use. Some searchers reported on Wednesday that they had combed the area so thoroughly it appeared doubtful the elderly Mrs. Jewett was anywhere near the spot she wandered away from on Sunday.

By Thursday, October 17, Rose had still not been found. Newspapers reminded their readers that the frail, elderly woman had been missing for two months, since August 11, in the heavily timbered mountain country near Elk River. They reported that Rose's daughter, Eula Johnson of Juliaetta, Idaho, was offering a reward for the finding of her mother who had disappeared while on a family huckleberry picking expedition. Eula would pay $500 for information leading to the finding of her mother alive and $300 for information leading to the discovery of her body. Volunteers and deputies, aided by planes and bloodhounds, had made a long and extensive search of the area without turning up any trace of Mrs. Jewett. There had been speculation the woman might have been given a ride by a motorist, but officers had checked out all tips without result. Mrs. Johnson stated she had not given up hope that her mother would be found alive.

Two of Rose's sons, Joseph and Hubert, had predeceased their mother's disappearance in 1957. In addition to Rose's two daughters, Nellie and Eula, who were featured in the newspaper stories regarding her disappearance, five of Rose's other children were living. Clara, Preston, William and Nora also lived in Idaho at the time, and Bulah, who had lived in Idaho much of her life, had moved to Oregon after her second marriage in 1955.6,7

Birth*1872Adolph Johnson was born about 1872 in Sweden.1 
Marriage*1905He married Ida Roberta Crawford, daughter of Frank Ashby and Mary Jane Wine, in 1905 in Ohio County, West Virginia.2,3 
Census US 1910*25 April 1910Ida and Adolph Johnson were enumerated on the 1910 census taken on 25 April 1910 in Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio. Adolph was 38 years of age, had immigrated to the United States in 1900 and was not naturalized. He was able to read and write and worked for wages as a day laborer. He had been working on 15 April 1910, and had been out of work for 3 weeks during 1909. Ida was 39 years of age, and was able to read and write. They rented their house, had been married for six years and the census taker recorded it as the first marriage for each of them. Ida was reported to have given birth to three children, two of whom were living. Two children were enumerated with the couple in 1910. Ida's younger daughter from her first marriage, Evaline Johnson, was recorded with the surname Johnson and as 6 years old, although she was actually about age 13. She was able to read and write and had attended school within the census year. The couple's daughter, Alice Johnson, was 4 years old. Also enumerated in the Johnson household in 1910 was Grace Chase, who was 21 years of age, had been born in Pennsylvania, and worked for wages doing housework for the family. Ida's elder daughter, Mary Jane (Crawford) Melrose, had married and may have been missed by the census taker as they traveled between West Virginia, where they likely married, and Ohio, where their first child was born in 1911.1

"Lodi Couple Marry in Tavern"

About 150 people, including many of the regular patrons, were on hand yesterday afternoon as Helen Sharlow, 45, and Amos Johnson, 52, of Lodi, were married in the Known Place, a tavern in Victor.
An archway of pine and white streamers, centered with a large white wedding bell, accented the pink and white decor carried out throughout the tavern.
The couple picked the tavern for their wedding because the bride is a long-time friend of the proprietor.
Tavern owner Hazel Nichols was one of the bride's three attendants. The Known Place bartender, Stewart Bailey, was best man.
Esther Hintz, at the piano, and Rusty Cowl, on the drums, performed traditional wedding music.
Bailey said the ceremony, performed by a justice of the peace whose name he did not remember, was very solemn. A reception for the bridal party, and Known Place patrons, followed the ceremony.1
