When two men in business always agree, one of them is unnecessary. — William Wrigley Jr.
From my notes.
Unless you see documentation. Do not believe anything listed here in Generations 1 & 2.
It appears that Generation 3 and down is being slowly documented
This was the story I have received from others that I have been seeking documentation on. After not receiving any documents from others I have been searching in vain to find something to confirm this. It is still unconfirmed and the now appears even less likely.
Apparently John Wrigley was the father of Epsy Wrigley who became the first wife of my ancestor Thomas Wrigley.
He returned to England to collect an inheritance and was killed in an accident in Liverpool
Supposedly in the late 1930's many of the Wrigley Descendants (including my family) was contacted about their share of a large Wrigley Estate in England and the attorneys for the estate were searching for heirs. Because of the War none of the funds could be transferred out of England. Several families have a similar story.
This is undocumented but it appears are if this is the family groups
as they are breaking down:
I am building up this section of Generations from information in the various Emails.
There is no documentation for much of this so please take it was a large grain of salt.
When and if documentation is found I will list it
Generation III is the Reference Generation. Generations I & II are ancestors of Generation III.
Unless there is documentation cited you should not accept these.
If you see something wrong let me know.
If you have documentation send it and I will post it to be shared with everyone.
I will post information on any Wrigley Family in the US and will cite all sources and Contributors.

Obituary from the Richmond Indiana Newspaper:
Sarah Wrigley Dead
ALBION, Ind. Feb. 23 — Funeral service for Mrs. Sarah Wrigley, 89 years old. mother of Judge L. H. Wrigley, were conducted at the Methodist Episcopal church here Saturday Afternoon. Death was due to senility. Interment was in the Albion cemetery.
Mrs. Wrigley came to Albion three years ago to make her home with her son, Judge Wrigley. She came from Richmond, where for thirty years she had served as librarian. Because of failing eyesight, which eventually resulted in total blindness she was compelled to give up this position. She was a brilliant thinker and though totally blind she did her bit for the country's soldiers during the world war by scraping lint for hospitals.
Mrs. Sarah Wrigley was the oldest daughter of John Finley, at one time mayor of Richmond, and author of a number of poems, including the "Hoosier Nest" from which Indiana received its name "Hoosier" state. She was born in a small cottage at the top of Whiteware gorge at a spot near where the corner of South Second and B Streets is located, on March 6, 1838.
At the time of her birth, there were few houses in the town of Richmond and all of them were made either of logs or of prepared lumber, brought form the Ohio river at a great expense.
Went to School at Four
She started to school when four years old, going to school in the mornings and staying for lunch. Her first teacher was a private tutor who had to solicit for her pupils and who taught only the rudiments of learning, such as the letters and the work that is now taught in kindergarten.
Later she attended a private school in the Warner building, located where the city hall now stands. It was here that she received her common school education. After finishing the course in that school she attended a Friends school and received a higher education.
In 1864, Sarah Finley was married to L. H. Wrigley, a young man who came to the city as a school teacher. AftEr their marriage they moved to Newcastle, where Mr. Wrigley was publisher of the Newcastle Courier. After staying there only a few years, they returned to Richmond and later Mr. Wrigley went to Nebraska during the big land boom in that part of the Co.
. Served as Librarian
From 1864 until 1902, Mrs. Wrigley was librarian of the Morrisson-Reeves library. When the library, a gift of Robert Morrisson was being collected and put on the shelves. Jesse Brown, a friend of Mrs. Wrigley, assisted in the work and was given the office of librarian. He later accepted the position of Superintendent of schools, however, and the position was given to Mrs. Wrigley.
Mrs. Wrigley was the last link between the Richmond of the pioneer days and the Richmond of today. Many details of historical important, which were not set down by the historian, were transmitted by her in posterity in the form of interviews with newspaper men and members o the history department of Earlham college.
A few years ago, Mrs. Wrigley wrote for the Palladium a number of anecdotes about men that were prominent in Richmond a half century ago. Owing to the prominence of her father Mrs. Wrigley knew intimately many of the founders of the city. |

Our History, from the Richmond Palladium Newspaper
|
Luke Wrigley's Career Recalled Following His Death at Albion Luke J. Wrigley, attorney at Albion died June 21, 1946, was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin P. Wrigley of this city. His father was an attorney here and was killed accidentally at Houston, Tex., Jan 1, 1861. His mother, Mrs. Sarah Wrigley was the first librarian of the Morrisson-Reeve library. His brother Roy F. Wrigley, died in Santa Monica, Calif., in 1925.
Luke H. Wrigley was judge of the Thirty-third Judicial circuit consisting of Noble and Whitley counties from 1908 to 1920 when he returned to the private practice of law.
Wrigley, who was born in Richmond, Dec. 30, 1856, was the grandson of John Finley, former mayor of Richmond and owner and editor of the Richmond Palladium.
From the time he was 13 years of age. Wrigley was dependant upon his own efforts for a livelihood and supported himself while attending school by acting as janitor of a school building in Richmond. For a number of years he worked at the Morrisson-Reeve Library.
He studied law in Richmond and prepare himself for its practice in the intervals which could be spared from this daily work during the three years occupied by him in its preparation. He was admitted to the bar of Wayne Circuit court in March, 1879, and practiced his profession in Richmond until he located in Albion on June 21, 1881, where he resided until his death.
About 1883 he became associated in the practice of law with Fielding Prickett, then one of the leaders of the Noble country bar, and this association continued until after the latter's death on May 26 1886.
On Nov. 16 1887, he married Lutie E. Prickett, daughter of Mrs. and Mrs. Fielding Prickett. To this union on Aug 18, 1891, was born one son Roy F. Wrigley, who resided in White Plains, N.Y., and is a member of the New York bar with offices in New York City. His wife died May 31, 1897. On June 10, 1913 he married Jane Menaugh.
Wrigley devoted himself to the interests of his clients and soon became known as a hard worker and a careful and painstaking advocate. By 1908 he became one of the most successful and well known legal practitioners in northern Indiana. In 1908, Wrigley was elected judge of the Thirty-third Judicial circuit consisting of Noble and Whitley counties, a position which he filled until 1920.
On leaving public office in the November 1920. Judge Wrigley reopened his office in Albion to engage in the active practice of law., particularly in the trial of litigated cases, in Nobel and the adjoining counties, and in the handling of appeals in collaboration with other lawyers. He continued in the active practice of law until 80 years of age when he retired.
He was 89 years old at death. His widow, Jane Wrigley and a son Roy F. Wrigley, survive.

Page 30: History of the Whitewater Academy:
In 1853 a branch department of the school was established
in Richmond and met in the basement of what was then the First
M. E. church and what is now the 5th M. E. Church, a Mrs. John
Bakers was in charge. Miss Sarah Finely now (1914) Mrs. Wrigley
had charge of the primary department. This school did not last
over a years perhaps not that long as the authorities were unable
to pay the teachers. this school was called the
Branch School of the White Water School of Centerville.
Page 46-47: Chapter XIV -- PUBLIC MEN OF NOTE:
John Finley was born in Brownsburg, Rockridge, Co., VA.,
Jan. 11, 1797. . . . In 1815 he was in Ricmond where he soon
became a prominent citizen.
His offical career began in 1822, as Justive of the peace. He
represented Wayne Co. in the legislature, 1828-1831, and
then was enrolling clerk in the senate for three years. From 1833
to 1937 he edited and held a controlling interest in the Palladium
[Newspaper DEG]. In 1837 he was elected clerk of the Wayne
Co. courts with a term of seven years. This necessitated his
removal to Centerville where he lived til 1845 when
he removed to Richmonad and in 1852 was elected mayor holding
that office till his death in 1866. . . .
While he lived at Centerville, his daughter, later Mrs. Sarah
Wrigley of Richmond, to whom the writer is much indebted
for information, went to school at the seminary and remembers
most of the prominent people of that time.

History of Wayne Co., Indiana, Interstate Publishing Co., Chicago, 1884. Volume 2:
Page 124:
The library was opened in July 1864, with Jesse H. Brown for
Librarian. A few Weeks after the opening he was appointed
Superintendent of the Richmond City schools, and he resigned
his position as Librarian. Mrs. Sarah A. Wrigley was then chosen
Librarian, an office which she has ever since filled with great
satisfaction and unusual efficiency.
Page 145: New Jerusalem Church, Richmond:
The need for a hall became apparent and not finding a suitable one it
was decided to build. The society having grown and strengthened, a new
organization was effected early in March, 1869, with the following namef
persons signing the constitution and by- laws: O. P. Baer, Emma J. Baer,
Francis Pruyn, Achsah Pruyn, Mrs. John Chandler, David Strawbridge,
Mrs. S. A. Wrigley, Miss Julia H. Finley, M. L. Crocker, Lizzie
Crocker. These members are what might be called charter members,
who worked for the building of the temple and its furnishing to its
dedication. . . . . During this season (1870) there were added to the
society, properly called the New Jerusalem Church Society, the names
of Mrs. John Finley, Mr. Thomas DeYarmon, Dr. Joseph Howells
and three daughters, Mary E. Baer, Florence Chandler and Rev. George
Field and Wife. ...

I would like to get copies of these materials. The names in your last
Email were all new to me. Exactly who is this Sisk? and the Epsy. I
had nothing on these names. Miles (if my memory is correct) is the
only child I had heard of from the first marriage and if (my memory is
correct, I'm not home to look at the records) he was killed on his way
home from the Civil War?

One more, If you want to know a lot of the sisk's genealogy
Don Wilson is even closer in the regards. The Sisk are NC.
His father was Allen also and if I remember He was 71 when
Allen was 38. They are Irish and Cloyne Co Cork Ireland will
really fill in a big back ground for you. Chech Wayne Co for
deed records on Sisk Thomas John, Epsy & Elizabth.

Hello, my name is Charlotte Lengyel and I have been mailing a Don Wilson who
in turn had me contact you on the Wrigley name.
I have a Mary Wrigley born around 1798 to a Wrigley that I have no first name
to. They had children , one that is named John and married a Lea Thompson
and they had a daughter named Elizabeth Ann born Oct. 10, 1866. They are all
from Westmoreland Co. PA. Possibly Rostraver Twp. Also they could be
from Fayette Co.. I am having trouble finding the husband of Mary. Don
Wilson thought you could possibly help me. Thank you, Charlotte

My one weak spot is that so far have not found John & Frances (Fanny) Wrigley's
death certificates Guess I should try again. There must be a record some where
in or around Wayne Co. They should have new people in the vital records
by now.
John was born 1817 in Indiana Frances was born 1816 NC so their death 's should
be in the reporting time for Indiana.
Abington was where the farm, which is not on map now.
The odd part I had no trouble getting the children's birth/death. marriage certif.

I have some other things, but they are much bigger
so will have to find time to go to Joni's office an copy.
I am going to be working on the heirs for a while, think that should
be fun, sorta S Homes type work. I have some info now, but wish
Joan could find the lawyers name. My mother had a copy of the will
and should it to me but i never looked twice. My mother said my
grandmother was sent this from England and it was for as long as a living
relative lived. I also know my mother either before me or not long

Justice of the Peace for WayneCo. hereby certify that Thomas Wrigley and Epsy
Wrigley were legally joined in marriage by me on the 7th of Nov. 1843 signed
John Wright J. P. and JohnFinley, Clerk (John Finley would have been SarahFinley

John and Eliz were in the area early as John my g grandfather

Just a small but nice to know Benjamin was reported as having
been killed to Sarah as falling off horse, not death while
visiting family (Perkins) but really went back to Philly and 3 years later
married to his sister-in-law and died in Philly;
I have all the proof on records. I really have some great bad stuff on our

Dear Don,
Going to give you this in 2or3 mails #1 was never to find out
where or anything about Epsy, always Epsy W in any records
#2 Benjamin P was son of Edward & Susan Wrigley hence P for Paxson
Luke & Roy was B P & Sarah Finley Wrigley sons born In,
Luke was lawyer & Judge am sure you may have seen articles
on him I have a few my self.
#3 Have no idea why the move to Kos, but was after selling
back property to John and think the Sisks moved also Sisk being AllenSisk (Jr)

Let start with saying Luke Wrigley or any of the Finley/Wrigley
never moved to Kosciusko Co. . They stayed Richmond and
Noble Co. Sarah mother, Benjamin P. Wrigley father were married
(S & B) in New Casle In. 1854 -
Luke born 1855-
Roy born 1856
Luke was married twice, 1st wife died. Sarah's Finley;s father was
Co. clerk, mayor of Richmond 14 yrs and also owned Newspaper
she was head of Morrison Library and wrote for paper.
I can not say that Mary Ann was Thomas's sister for sure, know
she and Allen Sisk were both b1812 NC. died 1882 Kos-
Thomes born 1815 Ohio-One sure thing I know is that John Wrigley
born 1817 In, my great great grandfather and his parents were
John M Wrigley & Eliz, born England and that John Wrigley SR. was
brother to Edward Wrigley was grand father to Wm Wrigley.
My g grandmother was Wm's Wrigley's cousin.
I know my mother talked to Phillip in Chicago and that my grandmother at one
time had a copy of will, it was showed to
me but i never even did much more then gave a glance.
In Wayne Co there was a lot of selling back and forth between
Allen, Mary Ann , Thomas & Epsy, John and Frances, Eliz(mother)
Miles. the deeds show the exchanges and that miles died in some time period.

Hi, Hope you got all the mail this morning aol was acting up again.
I have been reading some of my loose leaf note books as i said,
found info on 1870 & 1880 census records that I had copied,
think in another I could have some early on on him, not sure, but will look.
The Sisk went to Kos early. I have a 1850 census record of them in Kos.
The Sisks and Wrigleys stayed close even to grave yards if you notice plots
I found i had 4 names of the 1st 7 Sarah no date, Miles 1849, Frances Jane,
and one name started with M, just couldn't read my writing, but will see if I
have it on another sheet. I also asked a couple historial about Epsy and
there answer was nothing but Epsy Wrigley . It would seem she
just came out of no where. Even her marriage Lic says same. Best Mary

Good Afternoon Don,
I have been doing a lot of England letter writting and ready
a lot of my mater to refresh my mind. You said something abouta 1850 census
record, had forgotten that Kos Co. sent me one before we left Texas and was in
my files. Thomas was not in it, but a lot of Sisk's 15 or 16 in Jackson Twp.:
Allen Sisk Sr was 71 born B NC
Eliz 63 born NC
Timothy 21 bNC
Allen E. Sisk 38 (Mary Ann's husband) Children
Eliz 11 In-
John A 9 IN
Epsy Jane 5 In
Miles W 16 In
Mary A 2---
Mary Ann Mother and wife dead by this time believe died in Child birth.
Allen died in Kos Co 1882 and buried in same grave wiyh Thomas & family.
Also Robert & Nancy Agnes Simsion was in Jackson twp also showed
born Pa - Sarah Ohio. It would look like Thomas & Epsy still in Wayne
Co. I have the 60 & 70. 80 he was in Kos by thet time as Epsy died there
and he married Sarah there 1859. Think Epsy died 1857/8 he only waited
a short .

Thomas Wrigley & lawyer is asking for the money from congress from

that would be 3yrs before he died and he according to obit papers left

Dear Sirs/Madam: I recently had to clean out my father's house and came
across a picture of one Joseph Earl Mort. The picture is of a baby, probably
about a year old. I would guess that the picture was taken in the late
1920's, my family is from Kosciusko Co., IN. I hate to throw out any
pictures if I can return them to someone that would appreciate them. Can you
possible suggest someone that I might contact about this picture.
Sincerely, Don Leiter

Hi: Thanks, for the quick reply, sounds like your granfather Phillip Leiter
was my grandfather Charles (Charlie) Leiter's older brother. I have a Leroy
Leiter b. 1 October 1915 as a son of Phillip is that the right pedigree?
My father's (Eugene Milo Leiter) great grandmother's family (Epsy Jane
Sisk) was the daughter of Allen Sisk and Mary Ann Wrigley, Mary Ann was the
daughter of John Wrigley, does that tie in to your Wrigley family? Rardin
Wrigley sounds familiar but I can not remember where I heard it before.
I will mail the picture of your great Uncle. If I run across any pictures
of Phillip Leiter, or any other Morts I will let you know. I am sure that I
have seen some but I can not remember exactly where. The picture should get
to you in a few days.
My source of information on the Leiter and Petri families is Carl Leiter,
if you are interested I can email him and let him know that there is another
person out there looking for information on that family line. If it is too
far afield that is fine and I will not follow up.
Sincerely, Don

William Wrigley, Jr.
1861 - 1932
Founder of Wrigley’s Chewing Gum (and Namesake for Chicago’s Wrigley Field)
Mr. Wrigley had a talent as a salesman that started when he was a boy selling Wrigley’s Scouring Soap, which his father manufactured, out of a basket in the streets of Philadelphia. He went to Chicago in 1891 at the age of 29 with $32 in his pocket and the ambition to start his own business.
He started selling Wrigley’s Scouring Soap and as an extra incentive to the merchants offered premiums. One of those premiums was baking powder and when it proved more popular than soap, he switched to the baking powder business. He again offered premiums, this time offering two packages of chewing gum with each can of baking powder. Once again, the premium was more popular than the product it was supposed to promote.
Wrigley decided chewing gum had potential, so he began marketing it under his own name. The first two brands were Lotta and Vassar. In 1893 came Juicy Fruit and one-year later Wrigley’s spearmint was introduced.
Mr. Wrigley continued the use of premiums to encourage merchants to stock his products. He knew that his customers would be more likely to carry Wrigley's chewing gum if they received a little "something for nothing."
Mr. Wrigley was one of the pioneers in the use of advertising to promote the sale of branded merchandise. It was one of the things that allowed his company to get a foothold in the chewing gum business. Several times the young company was on the verge of going under, but hard work and experimenting with advertising to promote sales overcame the difficulties, and the business forged ahead.
In the very early days, William Wrigley Jr. personally did much of the selling to the trade. He was a constant traveler and called on wholesalers and retail merchants in many parts of the United States. As the company grew, Mr. Wrigley showed an unusual knack for inspiring enthusiasm in the people who worked with him. William Wrigley had great talent as a salesman, possessing a gift for seeing his customers’ point of view and giving them what they wanted.
The continuing success of William Wrigley in the chewing gum business allowed him the opportunity to enter into a ten-man syndicate that purchased the Chicago Cubs franchise of the National League in 1916. By 1919, Wrigley used the gum fortune he had amassed to buy out the other owners. In 1926, Cubs Park was renamed Wrigley Field to honor its owner.
The Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company has been publicly traded since 1919 and it posted consolidated net sales for 1999 of $2.1 billion.
Wrigley, William, Jr. (30 Sept. 1861-26 Jan. 1932), businessman, was born in Philadelphia, one of nine children of William Wrigley, a soap maker, and Mary A. Ladley Wrigley. He had little formal education, having run away at age eleven in hopes of making his way in New York, but he returned to work for Wrigley's Scouring Soap, eventually as a salesman with horse and wagon. In a precursor of his later life, he set off westward, only to return to the factory, having lost his railroad ticket in Kansas City. In 1885 he married Ada E. Foote; they had two children and remained married until Wrigley's death.
Wrigley borrowed money from his uncle in 1891 and went into a business partnership with his cousin, starting out with soap and baking powder. After diversifying into chewing gum in 1892, he used employee incentives and large-purchase discounts to enlarge the business. At the time, there were more than a dozen other American companies manufacturing chewing gum. After marketing the brands Lotta and Vassar, Wrigley came up with the highly popular Juicy Fruit in 1893. In 1899 the company began to manufacture Spearmint, in 1907 spending $284,000--a huge sum at the time--in advertising the brand, the sales of which promptly leaped eightfold. (Litigation over the invention of Spearmint continued for seventeen years, concluding in 1928 when Wrigley paid L. P. Larson, Jr., $1.9 million.)
In 1911 Wrigley took complete control of the business, and soon the William Wrigley Jr. Company, headquartered in Chicago, was advertising in 30 languages and had factories in three American and five foreign cities. Often described as shy and retiring, he nevertheless was quoted as remarking, "When two men in business always agree, one of them is unnecessary." A nominal Republican, Wrigley left the fold once, backing in 1912.
Wrigley's westering tendency resurfaced in 1914, when he began spending the winters in Pasadena, California, where he bought the Stimson House, a pseudo-Mediterranean mansion on posh Orange Grove Avenue. Called "The Shadows," the mansion was noted for its English rose gardens. (After Wrigley's widow's death in 1958, it was willed to the Tournament of Roses committee and continued life as the headquarters for that annual New Year's Day pageant.)
Wrigley's name was pervasive in Chicago, eventually becoming attached to the baseball park on the South Side as well as to the Wrigley Tower prominent on the skyline. The park had been built in 1914 as Weeghman Park, named for its owner, a local restaurateur. In 1916 Wrigley began buying into Chicago's National League baseball franchise, and in 1920 he completed his takeover, renaming the stadium Cubs' Park, for the team's nickname. By that time a transcontinental entrepreneur, Wrigley in 1921 purchased the Los Angeles baseball franchise in the Pacific Coast League. His Chicago enterprises continued to thrive; in 1924 he became the city's first employer to extend to all employees the privilege of Saturdays off.
Before long, with the purchase of another minor league franchise in Reading (Pa.), Wrigley was well on his way to founding the modern "farm system," whereby a major league club like Chicago could develop its players gradually, guaranteeing continuity by binding them to long-term contracts. In 1925 the most elegant minor league stadium in the land (seating 22,000) was opened in Los Angeles. Named Wrigley Field, the concrete-and-steel park was directly modeled on the larger Chicago stadium, with its characteristic ivy-covered outfield brick walls. In 1926 Cubs' Park in Chicago became Wrigley Field, too. Surviving various epochs of stadium architecture, Wrigley Field came to be revered as baseball's most beautiful venue--and the most conservative, being the last to install night lighting.
Wrigley's California enterprises multiplied. In 1919 he had purchased Santa Catalina Island from the heirs of Phineas Banning, founder of Los Angeles's seaside ports. Twenty-six miles out to sea, twenty-one miles long, and no more than eight miles wide, Catalina became Wrigley's main vacation home. There in 1920 he set about creating a holiday paradise and a wildlife sanctuary. Wrigley sought to build a "resort for everyman" featuring 2,500 "bungalettes," meant to accommodate two or three people apiece at the reasonable rate of $12.00 to $17.50 per week. There was golf and tennis, horseback riding, a large botanical garden and a remarkable aviary, stocked with birds from around the world. Wrigley purchased a Great Lakes steamer, which he renamed the Avalon, and later had its sister ship, the Catalina, built. Between them, the boats could transport 3,500 visitors to the island. Wrigley's baseball teams used the island for spring training, and by the late 1920s Catalina was visited by more than 400,000 people annually.
In Avalon, the resort's only town, Wrigley built for his wife (for whom he also named a Catalina mountain) a casino in Moorish-Venetian style, where, despite the name, gambling was not permitted. Boasting a 15,000-square-foot circular ballroom and a 1,250-seat motion picture theater, it opened in 1929 and became the focal point for the celebrities--usually from Hollywood--who gradually became Catalina's main clientele. The island became a favored location for the making of movies, and The Vanishing American (1925)--a notable silent film--left behind a legacy of imported buffalo, which proceeded to survive and multiply ever after. Decades later, the island became a center for environmental study for the University of Southern California.
Wrigley gradually left California for Arizona, where in 1929 he built yet another Wrigley mansion. He died in Phoenix, Arizona, and two years later was buried in a mausoleum in the center of a botanical garden on Santa Catalina Island. In 1996 California's authoritative historian, Kevin Starr, described it as remaining the most imposing funerary monument in the state. The Wrigley Company continued in family hands, though it gradually divested itself of its non-chewing gum interests, such as banking, mining, and the Chicago Cubs. |

January 22, 2001: From Mary Crandall - MICrandall@home.com: I have an old newspaper article, that reads as follows: (The newspaper article comes from a scrapbook of my gg-grandmothers. She did not include the dates for any of the newpaper clippings that she saved. S.F. Wrigley, mentioned in the article died in 1889 and George Wrigley, his son, was publisher of the Drumbo paper at that time.... but I do not know when he started working for the newspaper.):
"Under the heading of "A rich cousin", the Ayr Ont. 'Recorder' of last week publishes the following item, the gentleman referred to as a resident of that place being the father of the editor of this paper: Mr. S. F. Wrigley of this village, has handed in a copy of the Bury 'Times', published in Bury, Lancashire England, in which we notice the paragraph quoted below. The wealthy millionaire who forms the subject of the notice was a cousin to our villager, but owing to the latter having residence in this country, the rich relative seems to have forgotten him in the distribution of his immense fortune - The will of Mr. Thomas Wrigley of Timberhurst, Bury, in this Co., who died ln the 26th January 1880 has been proven in Manchester District Registry of the Court of Probate. The personality is sworn under 1,300,000 pounds. By the will, which was only executed last December, the testator leaves the sum of 10,000 pounds to each of the following institutions,namely: Owens College, Manchester Grammar School, General Hospital for Sick Children (Pendlebury), Royal Albert Asylum for Idiots (Lancaster), Bury Dispensary, and the Railway Servant's Benevolent Fund. To the British and Foreign Unitarian Association, the East Lancashire Missionary Society (Unitarian) and the Bank Street Chapel, Bury (Unitarian) the testator has bequeathed 3000 pounds each. There are also numerous liberal bequests to the relatives and intimate friends of the deceased, and 1000 pounds to each of his trustees on condition of their accepting the office. The employees and domestic servants of the late Mr. Wrigley are not forgotten, legacies of 100, 50 and 25 pounds being left to them according to position and length of service. The remainder of the property goes to the testator's family."
I suspect that this comes from the Drumbo 'Recorder', and very small town Ontario small newspaper. As to whether S.F. was really a "cousin" to rich Thomas, I do not know - but he did seem to have a copy of the Bury newspaper, which is interesting in itself.
S.F. Wrigley was Sylvanus Fearns Wrigley, my ggg-grandfather, and the son of Joseph Wrigley & Ann Fearns. S.F. was born in 1814, "near Manchester". His sister, Sarah Fearns Wrigley was born in 1812 in Mossley Lancashire.
Joseph and Ann brought their family to first NY state about 1821, then to SW Ontario about 1826. In the mid 1840's Joseph & Ann then moved to Michigan with at least 3 of their children - Sarah, Elizabeth & George. Sarah, by then, was married to Walter White. George too was married and had 3 small sons. The Whites remained in Vergennes, Kent Co., Michigan. George died shortly after their arrival in Michigan - he is buried in Alton Cemetery, Vergennes - and his wife returned to Ontario (where her family was) with the boys. Elizabeth was unmarried when she moved to Michigan, and I do not know what became of her. S.F. remained in Ontario, and he is buried in Ayr cemetery - one of his sons, Archibald, seems to have gone to Michigan as well (he had an American wife - they were married in Michigan, although they came back to Ontario where they had 4? children). S.F.'s other sons, Joseph & George remained in Canada - Joseph on the farm near Ayr while George was a writer and editor of sorts - if you have heard of the Wrigley Directories (Canadian) that is the work of his 3 sons I think.
I also have a marriage announcement (again, not dated):
"MARRIED - By the Rev. William Wallace, on the evening of May 10, at the residence of the bride's parents, on Calumet street, Mr. Sylvanus Wrigley to Miss Alnora Burch. The wedding was a very quiet one, there being present only the immediate relatives of the bride and groom. A number of valuable and useful presents were received from intimate friends."
I have photos of the above couple that were found amongst my grandfather's possessions after he died. I strongly suspect that Sylvanus Wrigley (who married Alnora Burch) was the son of Archibald Wrigley and Emma/Eunice Ball. I also suspect that the Wrigley - Burch marriage took place in the USA, although I do not know where (how many Calumet streets are there?). Archibald's family is said to have ended up in Michigan.

January 22, 2001: From Jeanne Dunn - cassandra@mindspring.com
I am descended from Edmund Wrigley and Jane Mills. Our family is from the
Wrigleys of Broadbent in Yorkshire, England, near Saddleworth. Much of my
early work was from first-hand family memories and stories. I am the second
generation of our family researchers and have already planned to hand my
product over to my niece when I can no longer do it (hopefully quite a few
years in the future!) I have recently joined the Saddleworth Historical
Society. They now have a website you should visit. That is where your
family comes from too! I also have depended a great deal on correspondence
but luckily Edmund's son, Edward (my third great grandfather), married into
an historical old family who came to Philadelphia with William Penn. The
family has already been well-researched.
Until recently, I had been at a dead end with regard to Edmund's ancestors
but thanks to a very generous researcher who lives in England (actually
right near where our ancestors lived) I have gotten a few more generations
back---although we are still trying to document a number of individuals. He
actually has gotten documentation right from St. Chad;'s in Saddleworth and
St. Chad's (the original church) in Rochdale, which is actually in
Lancashire. We are both trying to find links between our families---so he
has contributed much to my line but we still haven't found the "missing
link" to his. We are pretty sure there is one, however, since his family
originated in the very same geographical area and lived with a km of mine.
I live in Delaware in the USA. I am not sure how we are related but this is
my line:
Edmund Wrigley ---> Edward Wrigley ---> Henry Edmund Wrigley --->
John Eveleth Wrigley ---> Hugh T. Wrigley ---> Genevieve Wrigley
---> Jeanne Dunn (moi!)
I look forward to corresponding! Jeanne
From the Worldwide Masonic Directory, 1860.
This database is based on the Universal Masonic Record and Directory published by Leon Hyneman in 1860. The directory contains the names of all Masons who submitted their information for publication. Each entry lists the first and last name of the Mason and where he was residing in 1859, when the information was collected. Most of the more than 10,000 entries also list the man's occupation and the name of the lodge to which he belonged. This database represents Masons throughout North America, including Canada, the United States, and some Caribbean islands. It also includes a handful of Masons from outside North America (e.g., from England)
