Writes of Pioneer
Cass County Life
Well Known Former Murray Resident
Gives History of Thos. Patter
son, Pioneer Surveyor.
"The Territory of Nebraska was
organized from the Great Indian ter
ritory May 30, 1854, and on June
24th following, when the Indian title
had been extinguished, a flood of set
tlers entered this new country and
hurriedly staked out claims along the
Missouri river under the unwritten
law of 'Squatters' sovereignty.' Such
claims frequently overlapped with
boundary disputes and serious trou
ble. 'A war was also on between "claim
Jumpers,' vigilantes and the various
vlaim club organizations. Claim
sharks sold to greenhorns any claim
in sight for cash and left, thus cre
ating more disputes over claim owner
ship. Some settlers 'pulled stakes'
and returned east, some were put over
the river and two known victims were
put through a hole in the ice below
Plattsmouth one cold winter night.
"These hostilities in eastern Cass
county were not quieted until after
October 31, 1855, on which date
Thomas Patterson of Rock Bluffs was
awarded a contract by Surveyor Gen
eral John Calhoun to sectionize and
subdivide the townships along the
Missouri river from Nebraska City
north to the Platte river. This sur
vey covered what is now Wyoming
precinct in Otoe county and Liberty,
east Nehawka, Rock Bluffs and Platts
mouth precincts in Cass county.
Instruments Preserved
"The old type of surveyor's com
pass with which this tract was sur
veyed by Thomas Patterson, his diary
started in 1S27, many territorial doc
uments, first ballots voted in Nebras
ka and many heirlooms of pioneer
days of Nebraska are in the possession
cf hi3 grandchildren, Robert and
Chase Patterson, Mrs. Joe Shera and
Mrs. William Baker, who reside in
or near where once stood the busy
river town of Rock Bluffs.
"Before this survey was made,
authorized 'road viewers' had staked
out mail routes and emigrant roads,
their courses winding along the divide
of the rolling prairie and leading
down through a valley to an easy
fording point. Steamboat landings,
trading posts and water driven flour
and saw mills were important centers
to the early settlers and the men op
erating these enterprises were usually
outstanding figures in governmental
affairs.
"The advent of the railroads de
stroyed river transportation and with
it river towns and towns through
which they did not pass, as today the
paved highway is destroying the rail
roads and the small towns along their
routes.
"From the notes and maps of Sur
veyor Patterson made In 1856, this
first epoch mentioned is clearly es
tablished. Earl Legislator
"The survey of this river tier of
townships started in Wyoming pre
cinct and April 7, 1856, we find the
surveyors at 'Cowel's mill dam on
Walnut creek.' C. H. Cowel was one
lf Nebraska's first legislators. North
of here on the Missouri river 'the
town of Wyoming is platted, a town
which blazed with frontier tragedy,
the home of McWalters, who led a
penitentiary outbreak and Quin Bo
hannan, who killed his man in an
argument over the spelling of the
word 'peddler.' Wyoming was also
winter quarters for the Mormons, and
6,500 left this point and treked across
the plains to Utah. Scrap iron, stone
and corn fields now cover the site cf
a leading city of early days.
"On the Weeping Water 'Folden's
house' is located. Here Folden's Mill
was built and 'Strink Town' grew up
along the roadway, but all vanished
with the building of Union. On South
Branch 'George Hunt is erecting a
saw mill on the northeast quarter of
section 27.' Here the town of Factor
ville developed rapidly with stores,
churches, blacksmith shops, doctor's
office and even a university was es
tablished. Dnst Covers Site
This town site 13 covered today
with a field of drouth stunted corn
stalks. Territorial roads led to Kirk
patrick's mill on the Weeping Water.
S. M. Kirkpatrick served in the first
territorial legislature and it was on
his land below the mill that the town
of Nehawka was established in 1887.
"At a point two miles north of Ne
hawka, W. D. Gage has a claim in
the south part of sections 4 and 5. The
northeast quarter of section 5 is laid
out for a city by the name of Mount
Pleasant.' This remained a paper
town. 'Mall road from Nebraska City
to Plattsmouth. Land is first class. In
sections 30 and 19 is staked out the
town of Lewiston. It has one house,
that of Lewis Young, the proprietor.'
It is from this paper town near Mur
ray that the Lewiston cemetery and
the Lewiston community center, well
known throughout the county, derives
its name.
First Grave
"Many Indian trails ana emigrant
roads center at Plattsmouth. Sam
uel Martin, assisted by James O'Neil,
opened a trading post here in 1853.
Samuel Martin died December 4, 1854,
was buried west of where the high
school stands and was the first to fill
a white man's grave in Cass county.
"In East Rock Bluffs precinct:
'There are two towns laid out and in
corporated in this township. The town
cf Kanosha is in the fractional section
33 and has eight or nine houses and
six or seven families. The town of
Rock Bluffs is laid out in sections 8,
9, 16 and 17. It has a steam boat
landing, improving considerable and
bids fair to become quite a business
point.
"It did become a freighting center
and many heavy ladened wagon trains
left this river town for Denver and
point3 along the trail. Kanosha at
this time had aspirations to become
the county seat of Cass county. On
February 1, 1855, Bela White, along
with J. B. Garrison, presented petit
ions to the first assembly to make
'this town the seat of justice for Cass
county.'
Indian Scares
"Indian scares among the Eettlers
were quite common, whether real or
imaginary. When Governor Cuming
called for volunteers to protect the
frontier cf the first settlements
against the depredations being com
mitted by the Indians, the Rock Bluffs
Horse Guards were organized and
Thomas Patterson made captain, Wil
liam Laird, first lieutenant and Mar
tin Neff, second lieutenant. They
were commissioned August 15, 1855.
The Rock Bluffs Guards were organ
ized at the same time with James Kid
well, captain, William Rakes, first
lieutenant and William Ellington,
second lieutenant.
"Thomas Patterson was born near
Patterson's mill, Washington county.
Pennsylvania, May 29, 1S06, married
Elizabeth Howard Wells February 10,
1S31, moved to Hennepin, 111., and to
Nebraska territory in 1855. They
were the parents of twenty children.
Several of the sons became surveyors.
One son. Philander Patterson, receiv
ed a contract from Surveyor General
John Calhoun, October 31, 1855, to
sectionize what is now Russel precinct
in Otoe county and Stove creek, Elm
wood and South Bend in Ca3s county.
Fredrick Patterson, the youngest son,
was for many years surveyor for Cass
county until his tragic death when he
was murdered in his little store in
Rock Bluffs.
Heeded Resourcefulness
"Resourcefulness was an essential
and outstanding quality of every pio
neer. Two Incidents common to early
settlers 1b here recorded in Surveyor
Patterson's diary:
" 'James Buchanan Patterson was
born on the 20th day of April, 1856,
at 9 o'clock a. m. was the second
child born in the town of Rock Bluffs,
Cas3 county, Nebraska Territory, and
in the first house built in the town.
About an hour after the birth, the
steamboat, Omaha, landed in front of
the house with freight and groceries
much needed, it being the first land
ing made by steamboat at this place.
The first dwelling house built in Rock
Bluffs was on lot four, block one south
and two east from the public square.
By T. Patterson.'
The Patterson heirs still own this
property.
" 'James Buchanan Patterson died
February 5, 1857, at 9 o'clock a. m.,
age 9 months and 16 days was bur
ied on top of the hill south of Rock
Bluffs in Cass county, Nebraska Ter
ritory, the first buried in the place
which was selected for this purpose
by his father and mother in April, he
"having been temporarily buried near
the residence until that time. By
Thomas Patterson.
Cemetery Established
"This established the Rock Bluffs
cemetery of today on a high scenic
spot south of the town, a view many
miles up and down the Missouri river
with Tabor and Glenwood, Iowa, in
the distent east; the last resting place
of the ancestors of some of state and
national figures of today in the polit
ical and business world.
"It has been discovered In recent
years that this cemetery Is located
where once stood a large village of
some prehistoric race. Archaeologists
have made excavations at the boun
daries of this cemetery and rare pot
tery and stone implements have been
recovered.
"Thomas Patterson died March 24,
1869, and his wife May 3, 1908, and
both were laid to rest in the family
lot beside their infant son, James Bu
chanan, in this cemetery which over
looks the vanished yet historic town
of Rock Bluffs."

to parties near Wymore and an add!
tional 3,000 bUBhels sold out in small
Jots to meet the urgent demand for it
at this time. Failure to produce a
corn crop in Nebraska last year has
caused a great shortage on the mar

and those who have grain stored from
former years are in a position to reap
a nice return on the same.
