28528. Charles Henry Ellingwood

Charles was supposedly commissioned as an ensign in Company D of the First Regiment of New York State Volunteers "National Guard" on 2 November 1861. Eventually Charles became a second-lieutenant. He resigned on 3 February 1862 although he had signed-on for two years. His official service records include a letter of resignation, citing pressing business needs.

Charles was also in the 7th Regiment of the New York State National Guard, Co. F (also known as the 6th Co.). Charles is listed as a lieutenant. At least part of his regiment was made part of the 1st Regiment of New York Infantry of the US Army to serve in the Civil War. A sewing kit brought to Virginia was made for Charles supposedly by his fiancé Eveline. It was about four years before they married.

Charles was a member of the Waverley Boat Club, and when he served as treasurer in 1862 and 1863, his future uncle-in-law Benjamin F. Brady and future brother-in-law Eugene Heath were fellow officers.

According to other family notes, Charles commuted to work in New York from New Jersey on the Erie Railroad.

Eveline Amelia Hoyt

Eveline was born and raised in Manhattan. Letters passed down in the family suggest she had a more than modest education. In addition to her family background, circumstances make it very reasonable that she was the "Evaline" A. Hoyt mentioned at the graduation ceremonies of Rugers Female Institute in the spring of 1858. She won a gold medal for her essay "Nature's Beauties." Referred to as of the "Third Department," this was likely the same as the "Preparatory Department," followed by the Academic and Collegiate Departments. Eveline was 15 at the time.

Eveline likely met her future husband Charles when he rented rooms in the Hoyt house on West 22nd Street.

They lived with Eveline's mother on West 22nd Street into the 1870s, then moved to Upper Montclair, New Jersey.

Eveloine  and her son "Charlie" moved to her aunts' house on St. Felix Place in Brooklyn. Although her Aunt Louisa was a staunch Methodist, Eveline and Charlie apparently attended the Church of the Redeemer at Pacific Street and 5th Avenue, Brooklyn. Aunt Louisa, who owned the St. Felix Place property, willed it to Eveline. She and Charlie had been living at 83 St. James Place, Brooklyn. She likely sold the house and moved back to Montclair.

A 1906 map shows Eveline's name on two properties. Charlie had married and Eveline lived with him and his family at both addresses at different times. There are Letters of Administration of Charles' estate given to Eveline, but no other probate documents were found.

Eveline's diary near the end of her life mentions the activities of the family and letters to and from family and friends. Other family letters refer to her as having (memory problems?), which may explain the appearance of a diary so late in life.

Her granddaughter Virginia Smith recalled that her "Granna Ellingwood" taught her how to play the piano, although she had the more specific and child-like memory of Eveline's fingernails clicking on the keys.

J. Amory Haskell of 130 East Sixty first street, Vice President of the General Motors Corporation and of E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., died yesterday at his country home, Oak Hill Farm, Red Bank, N.J. He was 62 years old.

His career was devoted to manufacturing, his most important interests being with the making of gunpowder and automobiles. He was with the firm of A. & L. Neilson of this city from 1879 to 1883 and then spent several years with the Rochester and Pittsburgh Coal and Iron Company, advancing to general manager and treasurer. In 1892 he was made president of the Repauno Chemical Company of Wilmington, Del., holding the post for thirty years, during nearly this entire period serving as President of the Laflin & Rand Powder Company.

One of the leading figures in General Motors, he for a time was President of two of its subsidiaries, the General Motors Export Co., and the General Motors Acceptance Corporation, but he resigned the former office in order to devote himself to the affairs of the parent company.

Mr. Haskell is survived by his wife, who was Margaret Moore Riker, two daughters, Mrs. Howland B. Jones and Mrs. Henry M. Post, and one son, Amory Lawrence Haskell. The wedding of the son to Miss Annette Tilford, third daughter of Mrs. Henry M. Tilford has been announced for the nineteenth of the month, but it is thought that a change in plans may be made as a result of Mr. Haskell's death.
