Title A name given to the resource Doris Sanford Collection Subject The topic of the resource Sanford, Doris Mae Burmeister, 1924-1988 Illinois--Jacksonville Genealogy Immigrants Description An account of the resource Doris Mae Burmeister Sanford was born in Jacksonville, Illinois, on July 23, 1924, the daughter of Russell Allen Burmeister and Violet Evelyn Vieira Burmeister. She grew up in Detroit, Michigan, and graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City. Both she and her husband were professionally involved with radio and television. On retirement, Mrs. Sanford began to pursue research into her family tree. Her mother, Violet Vieira Burmeister, was the granddaughter of Emmanuel and Justina De Freitas, Portuguese immigrants who moved to Jacksonville in order to escape religious persecution. Converted Presbyterians on the island of Madeira suffered a period of persecution at the hands of the Catholic majority during the late 1830s and 1840s. To escape the situation, a group of converts, including Emmanuel and Justina De Freitas and their children, left Madeira and went to the island of Trinidad. Finding life less than desirable there, the converts moved to Jacksonville and Springfield, Illinois. Emmanuel and Justina De Freitas had eleven children, eight of whom were alive in 1910. Frank, the oldest child, married Anna and they had six children - Nelson, Nettie, Idelle, Franklin, Gilbert, and Annabel. Daughter Pauline married Harold McLaughlin. Daughter Elizabeth married William Vieira and their daughter, Violet, was Doris Sanford's mother. Emmanuel and Justina's fourth child, Nettie, married Arthur Smith and had a son, Carl. Daughter Evaline Harrison and son David were next in the birth order. George followed, marrying Irene and having three children- Charles, Russell, and Marie. The youngest son, Thomas married Sarah Nunes and they had a son, Loren Thomas. Mrs. Sanford put a great deal of effort into her research, and became interested in the entire group of immigrants from Madeira, not only her ancestors. She had intended to write a book based on her research, but her plans were cut short by her death in 1988. The finding aid for the Doris M.

Title A name given to the resource Doris Sanford Collection Subject The topic of the resource Sanford, Doris Mae Burmeister, 1924-1988 Illinois--Jacksonville Genealogy Immigrants Description An account of the resource Doris Mae Burmeister Sanford was born in Jacksonville, Illinois, on July 23, 1924, the daughter of Russell Allen Burmeister and Violet Evelyn Vieira Burmeister. She grew up in Detroit, Michigan, and graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City. Both she and her husband were professionally involved with radio and television. On retirement, Mrs. Sanford began to pursue research into her family tree. Her mother, Violet Vieira Burmeister, was the granddaughter of Emmanuel and Justina De Freitas, Portuguese immigrants who moved to Jacksonville in order to escape religious persecution. Converted Presbyterians on the island of Madeira suffered a period of persecution at the hands of the Catholic majority during the late 1830s and 1840s. To escape the situation, a group of converts, including Emmanuel and Justina De Freitas and their children, left Madeira and went to the island of Trinidad. Finding life less than desirable there, the converts moved to Jacksonville and Springfield, Illinois. Emmanuel and Justina De Freitas had eleven children, eight of whom were alive in 1910. Frank, the oldest child, married Anna and they had six children - Nelson, Nettie, Idelle, Franklin, Gilbert, and Annabel. Daughter Pauline married Harold McLaughlin. Daughter Elizabeth married William Vieira and their daughter, Violet, was Doris Sanford's mother. Emmanuel and Justina's fourth child, Nettie, married Arthur Smith and had a son, Carl. Daughter Evaline Harrison and son David were next in the birth order. George followed, marrying Irene and having three children- Charles, Russell, and Marie. The youngest son, Thomas married Sarah Nunes and they had a son, Loren Thomas. Mrs. Sanford put a great deal of effort into her research, and became interested in the entire group of immigrants from Madeira, not only her ancestors. She had intended to write a book based on her research, but her plans were cut short by her death in 1988. The finding aid for the Doris M.

[Translation.] To the Congress of the United States of America: While the recent victories of the federal army were announcing to the world the prompt termination of that gigantic struggle by which the principles of true liberty would be established in America, the terrible news of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln cast a shade of consternation and mourning over the spirits of all lovers of liberty and civil progress. Like all those who had such principles at heart, the Juvenile Association of Torre del Greco was struck with profound indignation and grief. In uniting with the many voices that are heard in every part of the world proclaiming their horror for a crime that should not be recorded in history, for respect to humanity, and their sympathy for the great and free nation of which Mr. Lincoln was the worthy chief, our society is assured that in him society has lost the bravest champion of its rights, and will welcome his idea, to which, like so many other great men, he was the illustrious and honored victim.

[Translation.] Naples, April 28, 1865. The assassination of Abraham Lincoln has deeply moved all the hearts of those who recognize in him the indefatigable support of the greatest humanitary principles, the assassin striking him at the moment when a series of glorious victories seemed to have put a stop to the sanguinary war which for five years agitated the finest and most intelligent part of America. This association, honorable sir, has manifested itself that you might be the interpreter to the American assembly of its sentiments of grief for the unexpected death of a man whom General Garibaldi called the “Ship of Liberty.” The name of Lincoln must be placed at the head of those brave men who have devoted themselves to the triumph of a great idea, defying courageously all danger, proud in the sacredness of their task. The idea of Lincoln will not die with him; that was not struck by the dagger or by poison. That it will triumph in America is the wish of this association, for henceforth will he the struggle of civilization against barbarism. All know on which side will be the victory. America cannot regret having given birth to a man capable of committing such a crime. Assassins, like traitors, have no country. Accept, illustrious sir, the salutations of our consideration.

Mason City, Sept 16, 1861 His Excellency Gov. Yates: Sir - My object in addressing you is to obtain an interview preparatory to an appointment in the Illinois volunteers. There are reasons why I have not already entered the service in some company from this neighborhood, which could be better explained in person than by letter. Mason county has sent a goodly number of men into the field and it would certainly be no more than justice to give her a representation among the field or staff officers. If your appointments were confined exclusively to regularly educated military men, I could not hope to obtain favor, as my military experience is limited to a few years drill in the N. Y. militia; but if civilians who can furnish the most unexceptionable references for private character, together <hr /> with a firm and steady purpose to defend the honor and integrity of their country in every event, can stand any chance, I think I may at least obtain an interview. What I lack in the theory of military knowledge, I think can be readily acquired by dilligent study, especially when the school furnishes such abundant opportunities for practical application. Should you wish further information in regard to me I would say that I have been a resident of this state about ten years, am a native of Sag Harbor, N.Y., and son of the late Col. H. W. Hunt, of some military reputation. I would refer you to Rev. John Andrews of the Presbyterian church of Mason City, Rev. G. W. Patterson, 2d Pres church, Chicago, Mr. Geo. Straut, Peoria, or if time would permit you to make inquiry to Col Rose, 16th N.Y., or any of the prominent citizens where I have formerly resided.
