1 NOTE BIOGRAPHY: !From the recollections of Edith Minna Buehler Hield.
2 CONT      Edith Minna Buehler was born July 24,  1933 in Ansbach, Bavaria,
2 CONT Mittelfranken, Germany.  She is the daughter of Johann Georg (Hans) and S
2 CONC ofie
2 CONT Engert Buehler.  When she was very small, her grandfather called her "M
2 CONC ausi", meaning something small and playfull.  This name was her family n
2 CONC ickname all through her life.
2 CONT In 1938 she moved with her family to Geislingen in the State
2 CONT of Wuerttemberg where she attended school.
2 CONT      Their town was not heavily bombarded during World War II but did
2 CONT experience ground skirmishes.  Whenever there were air craft alarms, sh
2 CONC e and
2 CONT her family would spend many hours hiding in the cellar of their home an
2 CONC d in
2 CONT bunkers that were located inside mountains surrounding the city.  Since t
2 CONC heir
2 CONT home had a restaurant on the ground floor, their entire building was ta
2 CONC ken
2 CONT over by an American Army Battalion to be used as their mess hall.  Her f
2 CONC amily
2 CONT had to move in with neighbors and leave all their belongings behind.  F
2 CONC ood was
2 CONT extremely scarce and they had to exist on only a little bread and potat
2 CONC oes
2 CONT each day. Standing in a line at a grocery store one day, Edith was almo
2 CONC st
2 CONT killed by a low flying American aircraft that was straffing civilians o
2 CONC n the
2 CONT street.
2 CONT      Following the war, when jobs were scarce, she worked for one year i
2 CONC n a
2 CONT steel factory until she was able to find an opening in her chosen profe
2 CONC ssion
2 CONT as a beautician.  She trained for three years in this profession which
2 CONT included a combination of schooling and apprenticeship and eventually w
2 CONC ent to
2 CONT a Masters Beautician School in Hamburg for six months where she receive
2 CONC d an advanced diploma.
2 CONT      In 1957, she moved with her family again, this time to the town of
2 CONT Goeppingen, Wuerttemberg.  There is where Edith and her entire family,
2 CONT including her grandmother, became acquainted with Chuck Hield who was
2 CONT stationed at the former German Kaserne in town.  He and a friend of his w
2 CONC ere
2 CONT invited for a  Christmas dinner and became friends of the family.  Late
2 CONC r,
2 CONT after the Army allowed Chuck to grow out his crew cut and get some civi
2 CONC lian
2 CONT clothes, Edith was allowed to go out with him on dates.  They fell in l
2 CONC ove and
2 CONT were engaged after six months.
2 CONT      Following his discharge from the Army, Chuck returned to the State
2 CONC s alone
2 CONT and found a job.  Edith traveled to the States six months later on the
2 CONT passenger ship "United States"  and was met in New York City by Chuck's m
2 CONC other and his Aunt Vera Coffman since he was unable to get any free tim
2 CONC e from his new job.  About six weeks after her arrival, they were marri
2 CONC ed in
2 CONT Independence, Missouri on June 5, 1958 by Henry Shaeffer, a German born m
2 CONC inister.  The ceremony was done in both English and German, a tape reco
2 CONC rding was made and sent to her parents in Germany.
2 CONT      The same year that they were married, Edith opened her own Beauty s
2 CONC hop, the Lovely Lady Style Salon, in Independence.  She didn't speak En
2 CONC glish very well yet but her excellent training brought in more customer
2 CONC s than she could handle.  Even though she trained other beauticians in h
2 CONC er skill, most of her customers would always insist on Edith doing the s
2 CONC tyling.
2 CONT      In addition to being an exceptionally talented beautician she was a
2 CONC lso an excellent seamstress, sewing many clothes for herself and her da
2 CONC ughter, Sabina, besides making beautiful drapes for each house that the
2 CONC y lived in over the years.  She is also remembered for being a wonderfu
2 CONC l cook, especially of her beloved German cuisine.  Her musical tastes w
2 CONC ere strictly classical, having little tolerance for any other style.  M
2 CONC ozart was her favorite composer.
2 CONT      Her two children, Steven and Sabina, were born in Independence in 1
2 CONC 962
2 CONT and 1965.  The family was transfered by Chuck's company to Memphis, TN, S
2 CONC an
2 CONT Jose, CA and finally to Arlington, TX.  During the last five years of h
2 CONC er life, she and Chuck traveled all over the United States in their 5th w
2 CONC heel RV during the summer months.  She especially loved traveling in th
2 CONC e mountains since they reminded her so much of her home land.

2 CONT !From the 1993 autobiography of Harold Roy Vandel.
2 CONT      Roy Vandel was born at a farm home near Lineville, Iowa on Novembe
2 CONC r 4, 1913 to James A. and Mary Ellen (Wright) Vandel.  The family moved f
2 CONC rom central Iowa to western Nebraska in 1917 to join James's brothers J
2 CONC ohn and Tom in Vance. They eventually moved to Vaugh, Wyoming just west o
2 CONC f Torrington.  A passing locomotive threw sparks on the roof of their h
2 CONC ouse, burning it badly, so they had to move into some railroad car bodi
2 CONC es and part of the train depot, staying there through a very cold winte
2 CONC r.  Eventually moving into a house once again, Roy attended a one room s
2 CONC chool house that had one teacher for first through the eighth grades.
2 CONT      Since Roy's father,James, worked for the railroad, he would get pa
2 CONC sses for most of the family to go to Iowa for part of the summer, stayi
2 CONC ng with Aunts and Uncles.  Roy later attended school in Torrington and g
2 CONC ot a job with the Torrington Telegram to provide Vaughn news.  His dad t
2 CONC ook a job at Mitchell, Nebraska so that his children would be able to g
2 CONC o to better schools.  In 1925, they moved to Alliance where James becam
2 CONC e a railroad section forman.  At the age of 13, Roy got a job driving a 1
2 CONC 924 Model T truck hauling grain until the Chief of Police finally sugge
2 CONC sted that he was too small for the job.  Two summers, while in high sch
2 CONC ool, he worked at a ranch, mostly raking hay and caring for horses.
2 CONT      After high school, he moved to Houston to be with his sister, Cret
2 CONC e, and her husband, A.V. Arnold.  There he had several jobs; delivering m
2 CONC ilk door to door from a horse drawn milk wagon, peddling glass for a gl
2 CONC ass company, plowing, and parking cars on a parking lot before returnin
2 CONC g to Alliance to be with family for Christmas.  He worked for a potatoe c
2 CONC eller for a while and then for Live Wire Transfer trucking company from 1
2 CONC 934 till 1939.  Returning again to Houston, he took a job as a tile set
2 CONC ter's helper.
2 CONT      About the third Sunday, when he went to church with the Arnolds, h
2 CONC e became reacquainted with a very nice looking young brunette who was t
2 CONC here, Reta Mae Morse.  They dated during the summer until she returned t
2 CONC o college at San Marcos but continuing to correspond and date occasiona
2 CONC lly.  They eventually became engaged and married on July 29, 1941.  The
2 CONC ir first child, Allen, arrived on September 5, 1942 and then Marilyn on N
2 CONC ovember 8, 1943 and Jerry Dean on November 3, 1946.
2 CONT      The President of the United States sent him a letter informing him t
2 CONC hat he was to report for induction into the army.  This happened on Apr
2 CONC il 28, 1944 and he was sent to Fort Sam Houston.
2 CONT From there he was shipped to O'Reilly General Hospital in Springfield, M
2 CONC issouri where he trained to become a surgical technician.  He was then t
2 CONC ransfered to Camp Crowder, Missouri, then Camp Gordon, Georgia and even
2 CONC tually to Fort Mason, San Francisco P.O.E. where he was assigned to the h
2 CONC ospital ship USS Hope as a medic in surgery.  He served in Guam, Manila
2 CONC , and sailed through a typhoon.  One assignment was in the psycho-ward o
2 CONC f the ship where he served until return to Los Angeles.  Immediately af
2 CONC ter arriving they left again for Guam and then back to San Francisco.  F
2 CONC rom there he was transfered to Camp Knight at Oakland Army Base and the
2 CONC n back to Fort Sam Houston, Texas where he was discharged on June 11, 1
2 CONC 946.
2 CONT      He and his brother, Ben, started building houses in Houston and Ro
2 CONC y had an all brick house built for their family.  Ben and Roy stayed in t
2 CONC he construction business until 1971 when they bought a hardware store w
2 CONC hich they had for several years.  After selling the business and going i
2 CONC nto retirement, he and Reta moved to Marshfield, Missouri.
2 CONT      Having been a member all his life of the Reorganized Church of Jes
2 CONC us Christ of Latter Day Saints, he was called to the office of Deacon, t
2 CONC hen as Elder serving as a Pastor and Branch President.  In 1954, he was c
2 CONC alled and ordained to the office of High Priest and was the Bishop's Ag
2 CONC ent for his District for about seventeen years.  He has said that he th
2 CONC anks his Heavenly Father for the trust He has placed in him, and for Hi

2 CONT doth on his oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the
2 CONT benefits of the Act of Congress passed June the 7th, 1832.
2 CONT That he entered the service of the United States under the following na
2 CONC med
2 CONT officers and served as herin stated.  He entered on or about the first d
2 CONC ay of
2 CONT March, 1776 in the State Troops of New York in the County of Orange of t
2 CONC hat
2 CONT State under Captain John Wiezner for the term of four months. All of wh
2 CONC ich
2 CONT term he served - he was engaged in erecting Fort "Constitution" on Huds
2 CONC on
2 CONT River and preparing it for defense under Col. Livingston.  But fought n
2 CONC o
2 CONT battles during this term.
2 CONT About the last of July, 1776 he again enlisted in the State Troops of N
2 CONC ew York
2 CONT for the term of five months under Captain William Blain, Col. Isaac Nic
2 CONC hols
2 CONT and General Gea. Clinton.  He served during this term of enlistment, hi
2 CONC s term
2 CONT expiring on New Years Day of 1777.  He resided in Orange County and was
2 CONT marched(sic) to the City of New York where he joined General Washington
2 CONC 's Army.
2 CONT   He was engaged in both the Battles of Long Island and White Plains - t
2 CONC he
2 CONT division to which he belonged was called the reserve of Washington's Ar
2 CONC my -
2 CONT commanded immediately by a Maj. Genl. Heath.  After the Battle of White P
2 CONC lains
2 CONT took place he was marched to the Peekskill - and there discharged, the c
2 CONC ompany
2 CONT to which he belonged being reduced to the number of six from about fift
2 CONC y.
2 CONT On or about the tenth day of January, 1777 he enlisted for the term of f
2 CONC our
2 CONT months under Capt. John Wood & attached to Col. McLaughlin's Regiment.
2 CONT  He was one of what may be called a scouting party, guarding the countr
2 CONC y from
2 CONT the depredations of the British and the Tories.  His headquarters were a
2 CONC t an
2 CONT English neighborhood but was frequently moved backward and forward & fr
2 CONC om
2 CONT Hackensack to the "Liberty Pole" and other places which the exigencies o
2 CONC f the
2 CONT times called them.  He served out his term of service, was in no battle
2 CONC s of
2 CONT note but was in several skirmishes.
2 CONT In the month of Aug. 1777, he was classed as a militiaman and served ev
2 CONC ery
2 CONT alternate month during the next succeeding summer & fall in guarding th
2 CONC e
2 CONT county of New York from the depredations of Indians, British and Tories
2 CONC .  This
2 CONT service was performed under Capts. McCauley and Shapard, Col. Haythorn w
2 CONC as
2 CONT command of the regiment to which he belonged.
2 CONT He was one of the garrison of Fort Montgomery at the time it was take b
2 CONC y the
2 CONT enemy but at that immediate time he was out on a command.  He served fo
2 CONC ur
2 CONT months during the balance of the year after the said classification.  I
2 CONC n 1778
2 CONT he was occupied as a soldier in pretty much the same kind of service as h
2 CONC e had
2 CONT been in during the latter part of the preceding year.  In the month of
2 CONT February, he was one of the party who commenced the construction of Wes
2 CONC t Point
2 CONT Fort, where he was engaged six or eight weeks.  He served during the ye
2 CONC ar, to
2 CONT the best of his knowledge, four months.
2 CONT About the last of September, 1779 the militia regiment to which he belo
2 CONC nged,
2 CONT commanded by Col. Haythor, was called out en mass, and under the superi
2 CONC or
2 CONT command of Lord Sterling.  He belonged to Lord Sterling's army when Col
2 CONC .
2 CONT Baylor's Regt. of horse were cut off, but he was not a participant in t
2 CONC he
2 CONT engagement.  During the year 1780, he was engaged in pretty much the sa
2 CONC me kind
2 CONT of service as he had been during the two preceeding years in quarding t
2 CONC he
2 CONT country from the Indians, British and Tories.  He performed a great dea
2 CONC l of
2 CONT drudgery, and his services was similar in the year 1781, guarding bagga
2 CONC ge
2 CONT wagons and prisoners.
2 CONT How long he served during these two years he cannot (with) certainty sa
2 CONC y from
2 CONT the indefinite periods for which he was called into the service, but he f
2 CONC eels
2 CONT confident that he served during the war at different times, as stated, t
2 CONC wo
2 CONT years and six months.
2 CONT He has received discharges from the service and they are lost or missla
2 CONC id so
2 CONT that he cannot avail himself of them.  He knows of no documentary evide
2 CONC nce of
2 CONT his service.  He thinks he can produce some proof by a living witness.  H
2 CONC e
2 CONT never received any commission as an officer.  He was born in Dutchess C
2 CONC ounty,
2 CONT New York, on the 18th day of October, 1758.  He has no record of his ag

2 CONT He was living in Orange County, New York, when called into the service, a
2 CONC bout
2 CONT 45 miles from New York City, and about 20 miles from the "Minisinky" wh
2 CONC ere the
2 CONT Indians were hostle.
2 CONT In the year 1783, he removed to Rockbridge County, VA.  He resided in

2 CONT Evidence for extensive farming activity by the two Vandal families in t

2 CONC ted was
2 CONT at a dead chestnut tree in Vandal's rye field, near the wagon road, and
2 CONT opposite his new stable.
2 CONT In addition to their farming, the Vandal's kept a tavern on their place w

1 NOTE !From the Vandal Newsletter, July, 1990.
2 CONT John Dillon Vandal was born in 1786 and was the third child and second s
2 CONC on of
2 CONT Abraham and Mary (Dillon) Vandal.  He married four times, including fir
2 CONC st and
2 CONT fourth to Nancy Boggs.
2 CONT It was apparantly after the 1834 death of Rachel, his third wife, that, i
2 CONC t is
2 CONT said, he went West with the Mormans.  This was too early for him to hav
2 CONC e gone
2 CONT to Utah, so it is possible he may have joined with them at their settle
2 CONC ment in
2 CONT Jackson County, Missouri, just North of Kansas City.  However, part of t
2 CONC he
2 CONT principal Mormon settlement was re-established in 1839 at Nauvoo in Haa
2 CONC ncock
2 CONT Co., Illinois, on the Mississippi River.
2 CONT John's reported life style does not appear to match the frugal, tempera
2 CONC te
2 CONT habits of the Mormons.  Raised in a farm house which was also licensed a
2 CONC s an
2 CONT "ordinary" inn, where alcoholic beverages were provided for traveling g
2 CONC uests,
2 CONT John apparently imbibed too, for one of our family historians wrote tha
2 CONC t "he
2 CONT claimed to be a great doctor, usually when drinking".
2 CONT After John's first marriage to Nancy Boggs, 28 Oct 1809, she ran off wi
2 CONC th a
2 CONT cousin, George Boggs, to Kentucky, where they had two children.  John d
2 CONC ivorced
2 CONT Nancy, and then married Abigail Blake, by whom he had six children.  Ab
2 CONC igail
2 CONT died, and John married again, 2 May 1827, to Rachel W. Wiseman.  The co
2 CONC uple
2 CONT had four children and Rachel died giving birth to the last child, Amand
2 CONC a.
2 CONT After the death of Rachel, Nancy came back from Kentucky and John re-ma
2 CONC rried
2 CONT her, and they lived together until death separated them.    John report
2 CONC edly
2 CONT said he never loved anyone but Nancy, and re-married her over the famil
2 CONC y's
2 CONT protests.  He died in 1853, and Nancy became demented, committing suici
2 CONC de by
2 CONT drowning in Spring Creek, Roane Co., Virginia in June of 1856.
2 CONT
2 CONT !From L. Neil Darlington's book, "Cabins of the Loop and Environs of th
2 CONC e
2 CONT Southern Half of Fayette County, Virginia as reprinted in the Vandal
2 CONT Newsletter of July, 1988.
2 CONT In August, 1812, John Vandal made a land entry for 85 acres "lying in t
2 CONC he Loop
2 CONT on the waters of New Rive4, beginning at about 60 poles below the said
2 CONT Vandal's house on the top of a narrow ridge by the side of the wagon ro
2 CONC ad, so
2 CONT as to include the spring and farm where he now lives."  From the survey w
2 CONC hich
2 CONT followed, we learn that the "wagon road" referred to was the Old State R
2 CONC oad
2 CONT from Bowyer's Ferry.
2 CONT John Vandal received an appointment as Ensign in the state militia in 1
2 CONC 815,
2 CONT and apparently was still living in the Loop in the 1830's, when he was
2 CONT employed as chainman on the Bowyer survers.

1 NOTE BIOGRAPHY: !From the obituary of Wayne Vandal Masterson as reprinted in t
2 CONC he
2 CONT Vandal Newsletterof October 1995.
2 CONT Wayne Vandal Masterson was born December 7, 1908 in Sawtelle, Californi
2 CONC a to
2 CONT Belle Morris Masterson and Thomas Vandal Masterson. Wayne grew up in an
2 CONC d
2 CONT around Los Angeles, California, graduating from Compton High School. He h
2 CONC ad a
2 CONT life long love of travel and an inquisitive mind, which lead him on num
2 CONC erous
2 CONT excursions of travel and mind.
2 CONT He enlisted in the United States Marine Corp and spent two years in Chi
2 CONC na as
2 CONT part of the Legation Guard in Peking. Following a journalistic bent, de
2 CONC veloped
2 CONT in high school, he wrote for the Marine News Paper in China. Upon his r
2 CONC eturn
2 CONT to the United States, he worked with Naval Intelligence. In 1940, he ma
2 CONC rried
2 CONT Dahlia Pellegrin and in 1944 their only child Paul was born. Wayne work
2 CONC ed in
2 CONT the aircraft industry in Southern California from the mid 1940s through 1
2 CONC 972
2 CONT for such companies as Northrop, Hughes, and Douglas. He was a devoted h
2 CONC usband and father, who ensured that his son was well loved and prepared t
2 CONC o take his place in the world.
2 CONT In 1973, Wayne and Dahlia moved from Los Angeles to Bull Shoals, Arkans
2 CONC as to
2 CONT enjoy their retirement years. There they led a much more relaxed life, a
2 CONC nd
2 CONT made many dear friends. Their home was marked by its natural setting an
2 CONC d
2 CONT "nature window" from which they enjoyed the many birds and "critters" o
2 CONC f the
2 CONT area. In 1979, Dahlia succombed to cancer and Wayne pressed on without h
2 CONC er. He turned his attentions to a lifelong interest in geneology, traci
2 CONC ng many family
2 CONT lines but primarily the Vandal and Masterson families. He was fond of
2 CONT attending the Vandal Family reunions in Colorado and later in West Virg
2 CONC inia.
2 CONT In July, 1985, he became the first Editor of the Vandal Family newslett
2 CONC er, and
2 CONT served in that capacity until May 1991 when, at the age of 83, the rigo
2 CONC rs of
2 CONT preparing the Newsletter became too burdensome. He continued to write a
2 CONC rticles
2 CONT for the Newsletter and to correspond regularly with many friends and re
2 CONC latives, with significant emphasis on geneology.
2 CONT Wayne Vandal Masterson led a good and long life - he will be missed, bu
2 CONC t he
2 CONT will not be forgotten because he left his legacy in the hearts and mind
2 CONC s of
2 CONT the people he touched. Do not mourn his death for he was ready to go. I
2 CONC nstead,
2 CONT honor his life by continuing his efforts to trace and record the histor
2 CONC y of
2 CONT the Vandal Family. In the vernacular of his journalistic career - that'
