  • Notes 
    • Bob Soli (email to Gordon L. Drollinger):
      Some of the family "legends" provided some years ago by a now 89-year-old aunt of my wife's:
      Grandpa Trullinger was dearly beloved by all of us. He spent much of the last ten years of his life in our home. There is no way I can tell you now much he meant to all of our family and how much he enriched our lives. I wish I could remember more of the stories he told us of his boyhood in Iowa and his youth in Missouri. These are some of his narrations as best as I can remember them It seems that great-grandfather Barton Trullinger owned a small inn in Hamburg, Iowa. A friendly Indian tribe wintered nearby and on cold evenings the Indians would come to the inn to sit cross-legged around the fire. Sometimes when it was time to go to bed, the Indians were reluctant to leave and would have to be removed bodily. Grandfather wanted their good will and certainly could not afford to incur their hostility so lucky for the Trullinger family, the Indians did not resent being ejected and would go laughing and yipping their teepees. The tribe admired great-grandmother, Mary Ann. They thought she was a fine, brave woman and she never let them know how much they frightened her, especially when they tried to buy her from her husband. It made no difference to the Indians that she had several small children who needed her; they offered her husband a good price for her, including a whole herd of ponies. Great-grandfather was afraid the Indians would try to steal Mary Ann when they failed to negotiate a bargain. This was another reason to keep peace with their savage brothers. Barton used to go into Missouri and bring back wagon loads of apples to Hamburg which is almost on the border between Iowa and Missouri. During the Civil War and the years immediately following, this was a dangerous journey. There were many outlaws and bushwhackers around. The most famous or infamous of them all were the Cantrell Raiders, who rode all over Missouri and Kansas and neighboring states, looting, burning, and killing anyone who got in their way or tried to stop them. The trip to the orchards took several days of traveling and several nights of camping out. It was not unusual for the raiders to visit the campfires. Great grandfather made it his practice to invite the intruders to help themselves to all the apples they could eat or carry in their saddle bags. He was never harmed and the raiders took very little from him. Those who drew their guns or tried to resist the invaders would be killed or, at the very least, their cargoes would be destroyed and their horses stolen. Though our grandfather, Francis was only a small boy at the time, he remembered quite well the assassination of Abraham Lincoln and the funeral train that carried his body to Springfield.
