Spouse: Nettie B. LNU. Children were: Mary B. HANLY, Beulah HANLY, Tom HANLY, Frank HANLY.
William Curran HANLY.15 Parents: William Montgomery HANLY and Ellen Bryan FINLEY.
Spouse: Ruth MILLAN. Children were: Jane HANLY.
William Montgomery HANLY15 was born on 27 Apr 1854 in Bloomington, McLean Co, IL.314 He died on 23 Jan 1936 in Canton, MO.314 He was buried in Buried at Shelbina, MO..314 He was baptized in Moved to St Joseph, MO in 1931.. WILLIAM M. HANLY, father of the Shelbina Hanlys, was the eldest child of
James and Mary Jane Hanly. During his boyhood he helped on his father’s
farm in Lewis County. We have heard him relate that during the Civil War
years, he hid their livestock in wooded ravines when bands of marauding
soldiers were in the area of the farm. There is a gap in our knowledge
of his interests and schooling as he grew to manhood.
For some reason, unknown to us, he went to Shelbina before 1875. There,
he worked in a printing office and then in a dry goods store for several
years. In 1880, the year after he married Ellen B. Finley at the home of
a relative in Sedalia, MO, he opened his own dry goods store in Shelbina,
MO. This was also the year of his first-born, Hunter W. We are
uncertain of the circumstances leading to his marriage to Ellen.
As the years form 1880 to 1900 passed, the remaining five children came
to bless their home. The family had its share of trials and
tribulations. Ellen did most of her home work and cooked substantial
meals. During spells of illness and childbirth, she received care and
attention from many kindly neighbors. The good ministrations of the
family physician, without recourse to a hospital, brought the family
through their illnesses.
The fifteen years following 1889 were difficult times for the Hanlys.
Ellen lost a younger sister, Annie, in 1889. Her two brothers, Thomas
and James, were killed in accidents during the 1890s. Her mother died in
1897. William’s stepmother died in 1896, followed by his father James in
1899. Ellen’s younger sister Sarah became paralyzed about 1904. She
came to live with us until her death in 1913.
Around 1900, William had become much dissatisfied with his dry goods
business, and often spoke of seeking greener acres elsewhere. Hunter and
Fay were away from home in Columbia. About 1902, William pulled up roots
and sold his home and business. The family moved to Texarkana, AR, where
William had bought a small lumber mill. However, this new strange
operation did not turn out too well after a year of effort on his part.
He was ready to return to Missouri.
This proved to be a disastrous trip. The family lost all their
possessions in a train burnout in the Kansas City yards. The flooding
Missouri River had wet a carload of quick lime in the train. This
generated enough heat to burn the cars in the train. Their only articles
left were those they carried with them on a passenger train. A legal
suit was thrown out, since this was an Act of God.
So the Hanlys were back in Shelbina with a sad outlook on the future. We
never openly discussed the details of the business arrangement whereby
our father was able to secure a stake from a local bank, and opened his
own men’s clothing store. Mortgages were finally paid off, and we lived
once more in a home of our own, this time, across the block from the
small house where all of us were born, and on Spruce St. William and
Ellen seemed to take a new lease on life during the years following 1905.
Each of the younger boys "clerked" in the store when needed. Jamie and
Curran received a thorough apprenticeship for their later adventures in
merchandising.
Family members enjoyed recreation, each in their own way. Fay, Jamie and
Curran had their respective crowds. The local town club was the center
of their dances. They were included in a camping crowd that would spend
a week or two at Spalding Springs in Ralls County during the summers.
Jamie and Curran had parts in occasional Minstrel Shows. Donovan was in
high school plays and stunts. He also played in the town band, and
belonged to the high school chorus and band.
William and Ellen had friends into our home for charades and table
games. Flinch was their favorite card game. Sometimes there would be an
evening of reading aloud.
Money was often a scarce item in the Hanly Family. But somehow, William
was able to provide modest necessities of food and neat clothing. In his
early mercantile days, he made periodic trips to St. Louis or Chicago.
On his return, there was a gift for Ellen and some knick-knacks for the
children.
Ellen had her share of home chores in order to feed and clothe the
family. She cooked substantial, balanced meals, cared for the clothes,
and did most of her housework. When needed, a local Negro woman would
come in to help with the cleaning. It seemed that we had guests quite
often. Visiting ministers and other church people came for meals and to
stay over night. Coming unannounced, were relatives from Shelbyville,
Macon or Palmyra. These kinfolk were always welcome, and in some
miraculous way were fed and bedded for their stay.
On pleasant summer Sunday afternoons, family members who were at home,
piled into the surrey and took a ride into the country. Quite often,
there would be a gathering of local friends in the side yard for a visit
to drink lemonade. In cooler weather, the gathering might be in the
parlor, where all of us sang or played music.
William put in a long day with chores at home in the morning, followed by
twelve or more hours at the store. The evening ended with more chores.
During the warmer months of the year, he usually had an excellent garden
and some fruit trees and berry bushes. Caring for these took much of his
time outside of his store hours. We boys were assigned a work schedule
from about our eighth year on through school. Sometimes we had to look
after a horse or a cow.
Both William and Ellen were highly read. We do not know when this habit
started, for it is almost certain that neither had more than a common
school education. Our home always contained numerous current books,
magazines and newspapers. With a piano in the "parlor", music was
enjoyed by all of us. Ellen played a bit, and Fay would often entertain
when friends visited. She played the violin, Floyd the Ècello, and Don
played the trumpet and flute.
William and Ellen were strong supporters of the local Christian Church in
all of its functions. William taught a church school class, and Ellen
sang alto in the choir. (The Finleys had been ardent members of this
religious body, and James Hanly had broken his relation with the Roman
Catholic Church at the death of his first wife.)
William and Ellen gave much time and effort to all civic affairs.
All six of the family children completed high school in Shelbina, and
either entered business or continued higher education.
