INTRODUCTION
WARNING: These pages should only be attempted if (1) you're trapped in the house with nothing else to do for a long, long time, or (2) you have no life except for genealogical research. There is a lot of information below on the family names COCK, COX, WATERS, WATROUS, WATERHOUSE, FORD, DAY, STEVENS, HERRICK, SCHOOLING, McCULLY, TEEPLES, and many others. However, there is no easy way to get at it. You can browse down the list, or you can ask your "Find" button to search for specific names. That's about it.
As you review the references, remember that I abstracted the information for my purposes, not yours. In other words, there might be information in a specific reference that would be of real interest to you, but it's not included in my abstract because it wasn't of interest to me. If something in an abstract strikes your fancy, by all means look up the original reference; there may be more data of use to you. If you can't find the original,
contact me; I might have access to it.
It should go without saying that I don't guarantee any of the information below. For me, it was the raw data that I have analyzed, or am analyzing, elsewhere. Use it cautiously.
Good luck.

Pp. 261-264, The Teeple Family.
"Christopher Teeple was born in New Jersey. He came to this country in 1775, and remained only a short time. Leaving his son Isaac, the old gentleman removed to Canada, where he died. Isaac purchased a hundred acres of land, known now as the Teeple homestead, in Horseshoe, in Carroll township. He bought it from Massah or Masiah Case, who was the father of Leonard Case... Isaac had five brothers and two sisters, but none of them, excepting one sister, settled in the neighborhood. Isaac married Catherine Castner on the farm owned by the Castner heirs in Horseshoe, on the 22nd day of November, 1788. Isaac was born near New Brunswick, New Jersey, August 28, 1760. His wife was born in Greensburg, Pa., or near that place, January 24, 1772. She was a daughter of Peter and Mary Magdaline Castner."
"Isaac live from his first coming to this country on the Teeple farm, where he died December 7, 1828. His wife died January 9, 1849, and was buried with the remains of her husband in the Columbia graveyard, but in later years both remains were removed to the Monongahela cemetery. Isaac had a large family of girls and boys. Jemima was born October 26, 1790.

"The pioneer schools of Iowa afforded John W. Armstrong his youthful education... He continued his residence in Iowa until 1882, on November 4th of which year he arrived at Calvert, Nemaha County, Nebraska, in which little village of that period he served as postmaster and where he eventually engaged in the under-taking business. Mr. Armstrong has been established in the hardware business at Auburn, Nemaha County, fr many years... Prior to leaving Iowa Mr. Armstrong had there been united in marriage with Miss Julia Stevens, of Mount Pleasant, that state, she being the daughter of the late Daniel and Mary (Cox) Stevens... the children of Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong: Eva is the wife of Ford Skeen, of Auburn, and they have two children, Alberta and Julia, the former of whom graduated from the University of Nebraska and is now a popular teacher in the public schools of Omaha. William Lester, who was for one year a student in the University of Nebraska, is now associated with his father in the hardware business at Auburn. He married Miss Mabel Majors, a daughter of John Majors and a niece of Colonel Thomas Majors, and the elder son of this union is William Lester Jr., who is, in 1926, a student in Kemper Military Academy at Booneville, Missouri, the younger son Paul Victor, being in the junior high school of Auburn. Laura Elizabeth is the wife of Dr. Edward James, who is engaged in the practice of dentistry at Stella, Richardson County. Ernest F., youngest of the children of the subject of this sketch, was born in Auburn and here received an early education by attending the public schools. In 1912 he graduated from the law department of the University of Nebraska, and his reception of the degree of Bachelor of Laws was forthwith followed by his admission to the bar of his native state. He is now one of the leading members of the bar of Nemaha County and in addition to being established in the practice of his profession at Auburn, the county seat, he has served continuously as county attorney since 1914, his present term expiring in January, 1927. He married Miss Grace Kidwell, and they have two children: Edward J. and Eugenia.
John W. Armstrong... represented the county in the Nebraska Legislature [note: as a Republican] in 1898, 1900, 1907, and 1921."

19. Anonymous. 1825. Birth records of the Society of Friends, Rochester, New York. http://www.rootsweb.com/~nymonroe/vr/friends.htm.
"The first meeting of the Society of Friends (also known as the Quakers) was held by Isaac and Aldrich Colvin in 1817. Meetings were held in the Colvin home for the first few years. Permission was granted to hold 'preparative meetings' in Rochester on the 18th day of the 10th month of 1821 (Quaker records are usually recorded in that style). Records still exist from that date. A building was finally constructed on the east side of Hughes St. (now N. Fitzhugh) in 1822. On the 25th day of the 11th month 1825 the Rochester Friends frmed a 'Monthly Meeting.' At that time, members were asked to list their birth date and also the birth dates of their children. Some members also added their birth place. The first part of that list is reproduced below. In 1828 the Rochester Friends split into two factions; Hicksite and Orthodox. The archives at the Friends Historical Library of Swarthmore College has the Hicksite records through 1896 and the Orthodox records through 1901."

Obituary
-On the evening of the 19th of March 1864, Mr. William Waters, closed his eyes upon the bright scenes of this life, to awaken no more upon this side of the grave; that so coldly awaits the comeing of all the living. He was one of those hardy and adventurous Pioneers who made the first opening in the vast wilderness that then bordered the shores of Lake Ontario; but is now the abode of thousands of happy denizens who have no realizing sense of the privations, sufferings, toil, and self denials, of those brave men and women, who so valiantly laid the foundations of their prosperity and happiness. The subject of this notice was born in Yorkshire, England; and imigrated to America in 1804, and adjourned for a season in Geneva, Ontario Co., N.Y. In 1806 he came to the town of Williamson, and wending his way through the unbroken forest, till he at length found a spot suitable for a residence for one of his indomitable resolution: purchased a lot and settled on the wild shore of the lake, where he built a log cabin, and commenced the life of an independent farmer; which he pursued successfully till competency and old age invited him to retire from the cares of business. Though an alien by birth, he was an American at heart, and supported with becoming zeal and firmness the Republican instutions of his adopted country.
He was highly respected, held several important offices in the town; reared a large family most of whom are living, respected and esteemed; and died at the advanced age of 84 years.
