Find-a-GraveSalome is almost certainly buried in Greenwood Cemetery, Palouse, Washington. Her death notice appeared in the Camas Prairie Chronicle, Cottonwood, Idaho, January 3, 1902, p. 1, and it states that she died at Morrow, Idaho, on Monday, December 30, 1901 of pneumonia, and that the remains were sent to Palouse City for interment.
Her aunt and uncle, Mary Ann and Jared Haskell, and her oldest daughter, Cora McClure are buried next to each other in Greenwood Cemetery, Palouse, Washington. (All three preceded Salome in death.) There is no stone there for Salome, and the cemetery records for that time period were lost in a fire, so there is probably no way to find exactly where she is buried, but it's likely she is buried near them.
When Salome was a baby, her mother, Emeline Rogers, died and the Haskells raised her. Mary Ann Haskell was Emeline's sister.
Salome married Albert Heath on May 20, 1860 in Round Lake, Minnesota. They had five daughters Cora, Mary, Sylvia, Pearl, and Myrtle.
Samuel N. Haskell was a farmer.
Her first name is recorded as May W. in the 1900 US Federal Census for Mechanic Falls, Maine.
21840. Rev. Augustus Mellen Haskell
Newsletter of the Haskell Family Society
Volume 7, No. 3, September 1998Reverend Augustus Mellen Haskell, Unitarian Minister, served on the Field and Staff organization of the 40th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry Regiment as Chaplain in the American Civil War. He was mustered 11 September 1863 and cited by M. M. Marsh, Medical Inspector for Sanitary Commission for " ... faithful, courageous volunteer service after the battle of Olustee" when caring for the grievously wounded. Forced to resign his commission due to ill health, Revd Haskell was honourably discharged at
Hilton Head (Folly Island), North Carolina, on 6 March 1864.Augustus M. Haskell was born 24 January 1832 at Poland, Maine, son of Rufus and Susan Haskell of Poland and New Gloucester. He married, first, Catherine Woodman who died 19 December 1866, aged 39, in Manchester, New Hampshire. He married, second, Anna Johnson at Salem, Massachusetts, on 24 December 1867.
For 20 years he was minister of historic First Parish of West Roxbury, Massachusetts. He founded the Unitarian Church in Roslindale, which he served loyally and faithfully until his death 24 February 1893, of pneumoni
Reverend Haskell's second wife, Anna, was the daughter of Dr. Samuel and Anna (Dodge) Johnson of North Andover, Massachusetts. A member of one of the first families of Salem, where she was born 15 January 1826, Anna Haskell died 15 May 1909 at 46 Amherst Street, Roslindale, after a short illness.
Two sons of Augustus and Catherine Haskell survived their stepmother. They were Professor Mellen Woodman Haskell, Harvard '83, of the State University at Berkeley, California; and Augustus Story Haskell, 1887 graduate of Harvard University and manager of a mining company in Kennett, California.
From University of California
Mellen Woodman Haskell was born in Salem, Massachusetts, March 17, 1863, and died in Berkeley, California, January 15, 1948. He prepared for college at the Roxbury Latin School and graduated from Harvard in June 1883. The first two years after graduation he remained at Harvard, receiving in 1885 an M.A. and the award of a Parker Traveling Fellowship. He spent four years in further study of mathematics at Leipzig and Göttingen, under the revered Felix Klein, and obtained the Ph.D. degree on June 18, 1889. He began his teaching career in 1889 at the University of Michigan as Instructor in Mathematics. In June 1890 he was appointed Assistant Professor of Mathematics in the University of California. He became Associate Professor in 1894, Professor in 1906. In 1909 he succeeded Professor Irving Stringham as Chairman of the Department of Mathematics, in which office he served until his retirement in 1933. He was Dean of the College of Social Sciences, 1899-1900, and of the College of Letters, 1900-1901. He was Visiting Professor at Columbia University in 1916, and at the University of Chicago for the summer of 1920. He was a member of the American Mathematical Society (Vice-President, 1913), Deutsche Mathematiker Vereinigung and Circolo Matematico di Palermo, of Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Xi, of the University, Harvard and Chit Chat Clubs of San Francisco, and the Berkeley and Faculty Clubs of Berkeley.
He was the son of Augustus Mellen Haskell, Unitarian Minister of Salem, and Catherine Woodman Haskell. The roots of his family were in Maine. He married Mary P. Brown of Portland, Maine, in 1902, and after her death, Isabel W. Brown in 1928. He had no children.
Professor Haskell's mathematical interest centered chiefly in geometry and the theory of groups, especially analytic geometry, groups of collineations, applications of group theory to geometry, and the singularities of plane curves.
Given the analytical and judicial quality of his mind it was inevitable that he should be drawn on heavily for administrative duties, and he contributed much, not only in the offices mentioned above, but also on committees which played a part in the period of rapid development of the University. Of these the most important were the Graduate Council, 1920-24 and 1928-33; Privilege and Tenure, 1921-28 (Chairman, 1925-28); University Faculty Welfare, 1920-21 and 1931-33; Special Committee on Schedule, 1928-31. In the last named he carried the weight of the difficult task of adjusting programs to fit the exigencies of a large expanding university. He was also a member, with Professors Hilgard, Clapp, and others, of the committee of which Professor Leuschner was Chairman, which prepared the way for the formation of the Association of American Universities. In the meetings of this committee in Berkeley which led to the formal conference of 1900 in Chicago, at which the Association was formed, his past experience as a student in German Universities and his insight into problems of education enabled him to make continual and essential contributions.
For the fulfilment of these duties, the University has cause to be grateful to him. His was an intelligence accustomed to the forming of precise ideas, and at the same time a free intelligence.
But above all he was a teacher. He championed instruction in the history of mathematics by the appointment of Florian Cajori, and in the saintly personality of Bing C. Wong found a perfect exponent of the fact that high scholarship is the privilege of all races. In his own classes, it was his mission to transmit to succeeding generations of students his own feeling for the clearness and beauty of mathematics. A host of students testified and still testify to his success.
A long, gracious life! In spite of his adoption of California, even to the extent of owning a ranch at Keswick, he was essentially a New Englander and a factor in transplanting the Flowering of New England to California. His education and interests were in the New England tradition. Admitted to Harvard at the age of fifteen, with a thorough classical preparation, he entered at sixteen, and by the time of his graduation had become the tall and urbane person whom we remember. Although he was awarded Highest Second-Year Honors and Final Honors in Mathematics, he was almost equally devoted to the classics. This love of Greek and Latin, and the love of literature and music were permanent attributes. He was fortunate in being endowed with the exactness of memory and openness of mind which enabled him to retain the accomplishments of youth and add to them the experiences and interests of maturity, to form an ever deepening personality. He was a thoughtful liberal with regard to public affairs, and remained so through the trying time between two wars and to the hour of his death. He was genial and courageous to the final hour.
He had very close friends, whom he met frequently and regularly. It was a delight to hear him read and converse. His judgment and opinions were looked forward to and treasured. Thus his friends remember him and he is of them.W. M. Hart C. A. Noble G. C. Evans

HASKELL
Charles Augustine Haskell, who lived at East Windham for more than half a century, was an adopted son of the town. He was the son of Moses M. and Polenah S. (Mclntire) Haskell, and was born in New Gloucester, May 13, 1836. After leaving the district school, where he acquired his education, he learned the trade of horse-shoer which he followed for six years in New Gloucester.
He married, April 14, 1863, Hannah Allen Libby, the youngest daughter of Elias and Elizabeth (Hawkes) Libby of Windham. After their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Haskell went to live in New Gloucester, where they remained until 1866, when they purchased the farm in Windham from Mrs. Haskell's father and removed there. This farm consisted of about one hundred forty acres, forty acres of which Mr. Haskell placed in a high state of cultivation, and, for many years, successfully engaged in farming and butter-dairying. He has always been held in the highest esteem by all who knew him. He served on the board of selectmen of Windham in the years, 1874-75, and again in 1901-2-3. In 1891, he served as collector of taxes of the town. In 1901, Mr. and Mrs. Haskell sold the farm to their oldest son, but continued to reside there until 1909, when they removed to Portland, where they are now living.

Frank Herbert Haskell was born in Windham, July 1, 1871. He graduated from Bridgton Academy in 1890 and from Bowdoin College with the degree of A.B. in 1895. After graduating from college, he taught for two years in the Arlington School at North Windham. He was admitted to the Cumberland Bar at Portland, in April, 1899, and to practice in the United States Court, in May, 1900. On his admission to the bar he opened an office in Portland and from that time to the present has devoted himself to his profession with a degree of diligence that has placed his name among the most successful practitioners of the State. In 1895, he was elected a member of the school board for two years; from 1896 to 1900 he was collector of taxes; and, in 1901-02, represented the classed towns of Windham and Pownal in the Legislature. He is a Past Master of Presumpscot Lodge No. 127, F. & A. M., a Past Chancellor of Rocky Hill Lodge No. 51, K. of P., Portland, a member of Mount Vernon Chapter No. 1, Portland Council No. 1, and Deering Chapter No. 59, Order of the Eastern Star.
