Frank Walton Seaver's Life Memories - An AI-Assisted Memoir

 I wrote an AI-assisted biography of my great-grandfather Frank Walton Seaver (1852-1922) in ABC Biography of #8) Frank Walton Seaver (1852-1922) of Medfield and Leominster, Massachusetts based on my genealogical sketch of his life.

Based on the genealogical sketch, I requested Claude Sonnet 4 to create a memoir written by Frank Walton Seaver answering certain questions posed by his sons and grandchildren about his life in 1921.  Here are Frank's AI-assisted memories:

The Memories of Frank Walton Seaver

As told to his children and grandchildren in 1921, at age 69


Tell me about your childhood. Who was in your family, where did you live, did you go to school, did you work, what fun did you have?

Well now, that takes me back nearly seventy years! I was born in Medfield, down in Norfolk County, on June 6th, 1852. My father Isaac was a man who knew how to work with his hands - started as a machinist, then became a blacksmith, and later worked in a fork shop. He taught me early that honest work was the foundation of everything good in life.

Our house was always full of noise and laughter with all us children. I had my older sister Juliette - she was about five years ahead of me and always tried to keep us younger ones in line. Then there was my brother Benjamin, just two years younger than me, and we were thick as thieves growing up. Later came Elizabeth and little Nellie. We moved around Worcester County quite a bit in those days, following Papa's work opportunities.  In about 1868, we moved to Leominster and my parents bought a home at 7 Cedar Street.

School? Well, I got what education I could, though boys from working families like ours often had to help with earning money pretty early. The joy of childhood came from simple things - helping Papa in his workshop, learning to handle tools, racing through the fields with Benjamin, and listening to Mama tell stories in the evening. We didn't have much, but we had each other, and that seemed like plenty.

What occupations did you have?

I've spent most of my working life right here in Leominster at the Horned Goods Company. Started as a regular worker when I was young, soaking those raw horns in hot oil, cutting and flattening them. Lord, the smell! And the horn dust - it got into everything. Your grandmother used to complain about me tracking it home on my clothes every single day.

But I worked my way up, step by step. From worker to foreman, and now I'm assistant superintendent. It's been honest work, and it's provided for this family. The horn business might not sound like much to some folks, but those horns we process go into all sorts of products like combs and hairpins. We're part of something bigger - this new industrial age that's changing everything.

What major life decision did you make and how did it work out?

The biggest decision I ever made was asking Hattie Hildreth to marry me. I was twenty-two, she was eighteen, and I'll tell you, I was nervous as a cat when I asked her father for permission. She lived just across Lancaster Street from our house, and was beautiful, vivacious, fun-loving and she had that glorious red hair! We married on December 16th, 1874, in Keene, New Hampshire. 

How did it work out? Well, look around you! This house at 149 Lancaster Street, our garden, our fruit trees, the barn with old Nellie the horse - this whole life we've built together. Hattie's been my partner in everything. She's kept this house running, raised our boys, tended to her mother Sophia because she lived with us, and put up with me coming home covered in horn dust for nearly fifty years. I'd say it worked out pretty well indeed.


(Frank Walton Seaver family in Leominster in about 1907, from family sources. The only photograph I have of Frank (the man in the middle))

What was your biggest accomplishment?

Owning this house free and clear. When we took out that mortgage all those years ago, it seemed like such a mountain of debt. But we paid it off, every last cent. In the 1920 census, when they asked if we owned or rented, I got to say "owned" with no mortgage. For a working man like me, that's something to be proud of.

But beyond that, it's raising two fine sons who know the value of work and family. Frederick's doing well as a comb painter, and Harry's made his way in the comb shop too. They're honest men who'll make their own way in this world.

What was the hardest challenge in your life?

Without question, it was losing our boy Howard. He was only seven years old when he passed in 1900. No parent should have to bury their child. Your grandmother Hattie and I... well, there were days we didn't know how we'd keep going. But we had Frederick and Harry to think about, and somehow you find the strength to put one foot in front of the other.

And now, just this past November, I lost your grandmother, my dear Hattie. After forty-six years of marriage, this house feels so empty without her. She was my companion through everything - the joys, the sorrows, the everyday moments that make up a life. I find myself still setting two places at the table, still expecting to hear her voice calling from the kitchen. The grief is different from losing Howard - that was the sharp, fierce pain of losing a child. This is a deep, constant ache, like part of my very soul has been taken away.

Those loss taught me that every day with family is a gift. Every evening around our table, every laugh, every ordinary moment - they're all precious because you never know when they might be your last together. 

What are you proudest of?

I'm proudest of this family we've built and the home we've made. When I look at our property - the garden where Hattie grew the most beautiful vegetables, our fruit trees that give us apples and pears, our little flock of bantam chickens - I see a life well-lived. We've been mostly self-sufficient, and we've always had enough to share with neighbors when times were hard.

I'm proud that I worked my way up from the bottom at the horn shop through honest effort. And I'm proud that despite losing our Howard, this family stayed strong and loving.

How do you want to be remembered?

I want to be remembered as a man who worked hard, loved his family, and did right by his neighbors. Someone who could enjoy a good pipe and a beer at the end of a long day, who brought laughter to his household, and who understood that life's greatest pleasures are simple ones.

I hope folks remember that I was reliable - when I gave my word, I kept it. When work needed doing, I did it. When my family needed me, I was there. That's the kind of man I've tried to be.

What advice do you have for your grandchildren?

First, work hard and take pride in whatever honest work you do. It doesn't matter if you're working with your hands or your head - do it well and with dignity.

Second, marry for love, but choose someone who will be your partner in building a life together. Look for someone with character, not just a pretty face.

Third, own something if you can - a house, some land, something that's truly yours. There's a security and pride in ownership that no one can take away from you.

Fourth, be kind to your neighbors and help when you can. We all need each other in this life.

And finally, remember that the simple pleasures are often the greatest ones. A good meal with family, a beautiful sunset, the satisfaction of work well done, the laughter of children - these are the things that make life rich.

The world is changing fast, faster than this old man ever imagined when I was young. But people's hearts don't change. Love your families, do honest work, and find joy in the everyday moments. That's how you build a life worth living.


Frank Walton Seaver would pass away the following year, 1922, at age 70, dying of a stroke while at work - a testament to his lifelong dedication to honest labor.

 I think that these relatively short memoirs are poignant and would be interesting to his family members, especially to his grandchildren, and even to his  great-grandchildren.  They seem to follow a similar theme for each person, and are positive and uplifting.  

This format provides a different perspective than a biography, doesn't it?  It is historical fiction,  but many of the historical facts from the genealogical sketch are included and it rings true to me.  Now if I could only get a Wiltshireman's voice to tell the stories!  

In 1921, Frank and Hattie's son Frederick had six living children between the ages of 4 and 20.  Son Harry had not yet married. Frank died in 1922.

I will write more of these memoirs or life memories as told by my ancestors as time goes on.  This is great genealogy fun for me!

Treasure Chest Thursday: 1763 Death Record of Crispus Richards In Lynn, Massachusetts Bay Colony

 It's Treasure Chest Thursday - an opportunity to look in my digital image files to see what treasures I can find for my family history research and genealogy musings.

The treasure today is the 1763 death record of Crispus Richards in the Lynn, Massachusetts Bay Colony vital records book:

The snippet for the Crispus Richards death:


The extracted information for this death record is:

"[RICHARDS] Crispus, May 17, 1763. P.R. 5"

The source citation for this record is:

Vital Records of Lynn, Massachusetts to the end of the Year 1849 (Salem, Mass. : The Essex Institute, 1906), 2 Volumes, Deaths, page 579, Crispus Richards death entry, 17 May 1763.

This is a Derivative Source record, with Primary Information and Direct Evidence of the death date and place of Crispus Richards.  This book was compiled from original handwritten and/or copied Lynn town records by the book's authors.

Crispus Richards (1681-1763) was born 20 October 1681 in Lynn, Massachusetts Bay Colony, the son of John and Mary (Brewer) Richards.  He married Sarah Collins (1678-1758) on 21 December 1702 in Lynn.  Crispus died 17 May 1763 in Lynn.

Crispus and Sarah (Collins) Richards are my 7th great-grandparents through Joseph Richards (1703-1748) who married Mary Bowden in 1726.

ABC Biography of #25 Rebecca (Spangler) Carringer (1832-1901) of Pennsylvania, Iowa, Colorado and California

The Claude (now Sonnet 4) artificial intelligence tool can be used to write family-friendly biographies of my ancestors that might interest and engage my relatives and descendants to help them learn about and understand their ancestry. Using the ABC method described in Using Artificial Intelligence In the Ancestor Biography Creation (ABC) Process, here is one ancestor biography.

1) I have written genealogical sketches for almost every known ancestor back 9 generations in blog posts based on 35 years of genealogical research in my 52 Ancestors/Relatives Biographies series. The genealogical sketch for my 2nd great-grandfather, Rebecca (Spangler) Carringer (1832-1901), #25 on my Ahnentafel List), including record abstracts and sources, is https://www.geneamusings.com/2014/05/52-ancestors-week-18-25-rebecca.html.

2) For the Claude AI biography, I attached the PDF of the genealogical sketch for the specific ancestor using the plus (+) sign, and then prompted the AI tool with:
"You are an expert genealogist. Please create a draft biography from the attached file, including parents, siblings, spouses and children (with birth and death dates and places), summarize life events, and add historical facts as appropriate, but do not add or embellish any extra genealogical details. Use section headings. Expand the information in each section to add more details. The tone should be engaging and suitable for family members."

3)  The expanded biography of Rebecca (Spangler) Carringer (1832-1901) created by the free AI tool Claude Sonnet 4, lightly edited, is:

Rebecca Spangler Carringer (1832-1901) 

A Life Across Three States and Five Decades of American History

Early Life and Family Origins

Rebecca Spangler was born on April 2, 1832, in Mercer County, Pennsylvania, the seventh daughter and eighth of ten children born to Daniel and Elizabeth (King) Spangler. She entered the world during an era of westward expansion and industrial growth in America, just as Andrew Jackson was serving his first term as President.

Her father Daniel was a prosperous farmer who owned real property worth $1,500—a considerable sum for the time. The Spangler family had deep Pennsylvania roots, with both Daniel and Elizabeth born in the state. Rebecca grew up in a large, bustling household in Sandy Creek Township, where education was valued; the 1850 census shows that she and her younger sisters attended school regularly.

The family's comfortable life was shattered when Daniel Spangler died intestate on July 19, 1851, leaving behind his wife and eight daughters, three of whom were still minors. The probate proceedings required selling a portion of the family land to pay debts and provide support for the widow and minor children. This sudden loss thrust 19-year-old Rebecca into a world where she would need to make her own way.

Marriage and New Beginnings

Just three months after her father's death, Rebecca married David Jackson "D.J." Carringer on October 16, 1851. The ceremony was performed by Reverend McAdams in Mercer County, uniting the 19-year-old Rebecca with 23-year-old D.J., son of Henry and Sarah (Feather) Carringer. Remarkably, the Spangler and Carringer families had been neighbors—in the 1850 census, they were enumerated one after the other, suggesting this was likely a courtship that had developed between neighboring farm families.

D.J. was a skilled carpenter and joiner, trades that would serve the family well as they moved westward with the great migration of Americans seeking new opportunities in the expanding nation.

Building a Family and Moving West

Rebecca and D.J. welcomed their first child, Harvey Edgar Carringer, on May 6, 1852, in Mercer Co unty, Pennsylvania. Their second son, Henry Austin Carringer, was born on November 28, 1853, also in Pennsylvania.

By 1858, the young family had joined the westward migration that characterized mid-19th century America. They relocated to Louisa County, Iowa, accompanying D.J.'s widowed father and several siblings. It was there that their daughter Effie Eva Carringer was born on November 24, 1858. The move reflected the broader pattern of American families seeking better farmland and opportunities in the territories west of the Mississippi River.

The 1860 census found the family settled in Columbus City, Louisa County, Iowa, where D.J. worked as a carpenter. Despite owning only modest property ($200 in real estate and $100 in personal property), they prioritized their children's education—both Harvey and Henry were attending school.

The Iowa Years: Trials and Resilience

The family moved again within Iowa, settling in Jackson Township, Washington County, where D.J. tried his hand at farming. These were challenging years during and after the Civil War, when many families struggled with economic hardship. Unfortunately, their farming venture failed, and in October 1872, they were forced to sell their farm and its contents at public auction.

The year 1873 brought both terror and testimony to Rebecca's remarkable resilience. On May 23, while visiting a friend in Washington County, a tornado struck the house where she was staying. Rebecca, her friend, and the friend's two children sought shelter in the cellar, but when the house was blown away, they were lifted from their underground refuge and carried some distance before being thrown to the ground. Though knocked unconscious, Rebecca survived without serious injury—a testament to both her physical strength and what her family surely saw as divine protection.

Colorado Territory: New Horizons and Heartbreak

Following the tornado, the Carringer family joined the thousands of Americans heading to Colorado Territory, settling in Caribou in Boulder County. Colorado was experiencing a mining boom, and many families sought new starts in the mountain west. However, their hopes for a fresh beginning were soon overshadowed by tragedy.

On June 8, 1874, their beloved daughter Effie died at just 15 years, 6 months, and 12 days old. The local obituary captured the family's profound grief and the community's sympathy: "The deeply afflicted family have the sincerest sympathy of all the community. The form of their loved one fades from earth 'but a fair maiden in the Father's mansion, clothed with celestial grace, and beautiful will all the soul's expansion, shall they behold her face.'" Effie was buried in Columbia Cemetery in Boulder, far from the Iowa soil where she was born.

Establishing Roots in Boulder

Despite their loss, the Carringers persevered in Colorado. By 1880, they had settled in Boulder, where D.J. returned to his carpentry trade. The 1885 Colorado State Census shows the family had achieved some stability—D.J. was working as a fruit grower, suggesting they had acquired property suitable for agriculture in the fertile Boulder Valley.

Their son Henry Austin Carringer married Abbey Ardelle Smith in September 1887 in Wano, Kansas, and the young couple soon relocated to San Diego, California. Henry and Abbey had two children: Devier David Carringer (1889-1890), who tragically died in infancy, and Lyle Lawrence Carringer (1891-1976), who would live to see the dawn of the atomic age.

The California Years: Final Chapter

By 1898, Rebecca and D.J., now in their sixties, made one final move to join their son Henry in San Diego. The San Diego Union reported in November 1898 that D.J. had received a permit to build a cottage in Choate & Seaman's addition for $800—a substantial investment that showed the family had achieved some prosperity.

They settled in the Brooklyn Heights neighborhood, building their home at what is now the northwest corner of 30th Street and Ivy Street, near Henry and Abbey's residence. This area was experiencing rapid growth as San Diego transformed from a small frontier town into a modern California city.

The 1900 census captured the family in their twilight years: D.J., age 71, and Rebecca, age 67, had been married for 49 years. They owned their home free of mortgage—a significant achievement for a couple who had weathered farm failures, natural disasters, and the loss of a child. Their son Harvey Edgar, now 47, remained with them.

Golden Anniversary and Final Days

On October 16, 1901, Rebecca and D.J. celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary with a party at their Brooklyn Heights home. The San Diego Evening Tribune reported that friends gathered to honor the couple, presenting them with gold coins and other valuable gifts. The newspaper noted that both were invalids, but the celebration was "an especially enjoyable affair for the aged couple."

Just two months later, on December 13, 1901, Rebecca died of cancer at age 69 years, 8 months, and 11 days. Her grieving husband survived her by only one month, dying of kidney and bladder trouble on January 20, 1902. Their profound bond, forged in the aftermath of her father's death and sustained through five decades of American transformation, ended as they were laid to rest together in La Vista Memorial Park in National City, California.

Legacy

Rebecca Spangler Carringer's life spanned one of the most dynamic periods in American history. Born during Andrew Jackson's presidency, she witnessed the Civil War, the completion of the transcontinental railroad, the settlement of the American West, and the dawn of the 20th century. Her journey from Pennsylvania farm girl to Iowa to Colorado to California matriarch reflects the experiences of countless American families who built their lives through perseverance, faith, and the courage to start over when circumstances demanded it.

Her descendants, including grandson Lyle Lawrence Carringer, would continue the family tradition of resilience and adaptation, carrying forward the values Rebecca and D.J. demonstrated through their remarkable 50-year partnership. Today, her remains rest in La Vista Memorial Park next to her husband and grandsson Devier, where her simple gravestone—"Rebecca S. Carringer 1832-1901"—marks the final resting place of a woman whose life embodied the American spirit of endurance and hope.

4)  A poem and song lyrics to commemorate the life of Rebecca (Spangler) Carringer (1832-1901) can be found in "Rebecca, Pioneer Woman" -- A Family History Poem and Song Created by Artificial Intelligence. The song created from the song lyrics can be heard in that blog post, here on Suno.com, and below:  


An audio overview (essentially a podcast created by the Google ContentLM AI tool) discussing the life of Rebecca (Spangler) Carringer (1832-1901) can be heard at   https://notebooklm.google.com/notebook/0d3b2dcf-797d-48ae-a507-7ee0a83ae2ab/audio.

5)  I wrote a historical fiction AI-asisted dialogue between Rebecca and her family after the 1873 tornado in Ask Claude AI: "Please Create a Dialogue Between Rebecca Carringer and Her Family About Surviving the Tornado"

6)  The ABC Biography for David Jackson Carringer (1828-1902) is in ABC Biography of #24 David Jackson "D.J." Carringer (1828-1902) of Pennsylvania, Iowa, Colorado and California.

7)  I lightly edited the Claude biography text to add more family detail and correct minor errors.  Every large language model (LLM) AI tool writes descriptive text much better than I can write.  I was an aerospace engineer in my former life, and my research reports and genealogical sketches reflect "just the facts gleaned from my research."  The AI tools are very perceptive, insightful and create readable text in seconds, including local and national historical events and social history detail.

Emily Auble in San Diego in 1915-1919 -- (Not So) Wordless Wednesday #874

I found another priceless (to me) photograph in my computer file folders:


This photograph is of my maternal grandmother, Emily Kemp Auble (1899-1977).  It was probably taken, perhaps by her future husband, Lyle Carringer, as part of a holiday or family event in the 1915 to 1919 time frame.  She looks to be age 16 to 20 to me.  The setting is perhaps the backyard of the Auble home at 767 14th Street, the Carringer home at 2105 30th Street, or another home.

This photograph is a part of my family history.  I enhanced and colorized it using the MyHeritage photo tools.  It really needs more sharpening and better coloring!
