Just a quick and short update. I uploaded photos from Scotland this morning. I hope you find them interesting. We will see how many more photos it will let me upload for the month.
We are now staying with the Gore family in Walkden. We arrived later than anticipated after a day of visiting in Runcorn. We attended church in the Runcorn Ward at the local community center since their building burned down a while back. It was good to see so many people and that we received such a hearty welcome. We did go visit a number of families while there. A couple of which include the Campbell (and Young), Fleming, McWilliam, Johnson, Byrom and more. A couple of families were not home so we did not visit with them. It was sure good to be back in Runcorn, despite the fact that you have to drive around in circles to get anywhere you want to go. Busways might be spectacular, but at the sacrifice of the drivers!

Saturday we made another trip into Liverpool. The only thing really to mention is that we got lost and had lunch with Gheorghe and Claire Simion family. Gheorghe was one of my mission companions. We spent nearly four hours with him and his good wife. It was convenient he lives in Liverpool now as he was originally from Romania. It was a great meeting.

We are off to Hyde and Disley today. Here are a few photos of our visit of this somewhat storybook place.
These are photos shared to me of Victoria “Vicki” Kay Feldtman Ross. I don’t know anything more than what I have listed on the photos. I believe she graduated from Weber High School in 1963, or would have graduated. She married Dad, Milo Paul Ross, 5 March 1963 in Ogden, Weber, Utah. She was born 23 December 1945 in Ontario, Malheur, Oregon and passed away 31 December 2018 in Twin Falls, Twin Falls, Idaho.

This is another chapter of the Jonas history book compiled by Carvel Jonas. “The Joseph Jonas clan of Utah (including – early Jonas family history; early Nelson family history)” This one is on Gaylen Thompson Jonas, Melvin Andersen Jonas, and John Irvin Jonas.
“Gaylen Thompson Jonas
“Melvin Andersen Jonas
“John Irvin Jonas [all my family history records show his name as Irwin John Jonas, not John Irvin]
“The above three Jonas boys were killed during World War 2 within two months and eight days of each other. Each was a grandson of Joseph and Annette Josephine Jonas, and each is a son with a different father. Melvin was a son of John Nelson and Armina Jonas. Gaylen was a son of William Nelson and Mary Jonas. Irvin was the son of Joseph Nelson and Lillian Jonas [I wrote about a post about Irwin exactly 10 years ago, then the 70th Anniversary of D-Day]. Gaylen never married. Melvin and Irvin married. Irvin was the only one of these three to have any children. He had one son, whose name was Irvin [Robert Irwin Jonas (1944-2019)], and only one grandson who was killed in a car accident when he was 16 years old [Robert Irwin Jonas II (1965-1983)]. Also, grandpa Joseph Jonas had a brother, William, who had a grandson who was also killed in the war [Melvin Paul Jonas (1917-1945)]. This grandson may have passed the Jonas surname had he lived, but with his death William Jonas had no great grand children who were boys. The war killed four of the Jonas sons.
Irwin John Jonas
“I wish that I had more information about Melvin and Irvin. I do have pictures which have been included in this history. If you (the reader) have any additional information please let me know so it can be included in a future edition.
Melvin Andersen Jonas Portrait
“Melvin Andersen Jonas was born 31 March 1917 in Richmond, Cache County, Utah. He was given a priesthood blessing 1 July 1917. He was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints 31 August 1925. He was ordained a Deacon 3 December 1929; a Teacher 12 February 1933, and a Priest 21 June 1937. He married Doris Everts 17 March 1944 and died just over four months after he was married on 16 July 1944. The Deseret News – 20 July 1944 p. 14, has the following obituary. “Houstin Texas. Lt. Melvin Jonas. Richmond – Funeral services for Lt. Melvin Jonas, 27, who drowned Sunday in the San Marcus California River, Will be conducted Sat. at 2 P.M. in the Richmond tabernacle by Bishop Erastus Johnson.”
“John Irvin Jonas was born 2 September 1921 at Thatcher, Bannock [Franklin] County, Idaho. His first name was probably given to him in behalf of his uncle, John Nelson Jonas, who died about two years before Irvin’s birth. Irvin was given a priesthood blessing 5 February 1922 and was baprized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints 19 February 1931, and confirmed the same day. He was ordained a Deacon 1 April 1934 and a Teacher 27 February 1938. He was married 17 June 1943 when he was 21 years old at Rochester, Minnesota. Their only son, Robert Irvin Jonas was born 12 February 1944 at Logan, Utah. His son was four month old, less one day, when John Irvin died. The Salt Lake Tribute 8 August 1944 p. 11, and the Deseret News 8 August 1944 p. 5 have the following information. “Sgt. Irvin Jonas, 22, Richmond. Husband of Mrs. Mary [Popwitz] Jonas and son of Mrs. Lillian C. Jonas died 11 July 1944. Died in action in France.
Gaylen Thompson Jonas
“Gaylen Thompson Jonas was born 14 March 1925 at Logan, Utah. He was 6′ 2” tall and weighed over 200 pounds when he enlisted in the US Marines 19 August 1942. He was just 17 years and 5 months old when he enlisted. He went to San Diego, California to be trained with the 2nd Mormon battalion. He went overseas Jan 1943. He died 19 September 1944 when he was 19 years, 6 months and 5 days old. He was buried overseas for four years and 4 days and then was reburied 23 September 1948 at the Elysian Burial Cemetery in Murray, Utah. Here his body was laid next to his youngest brother, William Thompson Jonas, and now his parents are there, too. The Deseret News – 24 October 1944 p. 5, has an obituary.
“Gaylen was given a priesthood blessing 5 July 1929 by his father. He was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints 25 November 1933. He was confirmed 3 December 1933 by his father. He was ordained a Deacon 4 July 1937 and a teacher 29 January 1940. Temple work was done for Gaylen by his father 8 March 1950. Gaylen had visited his father two different times after his death and asked for his temple work to be done.
“The following is quoted from the April 1943 edition of the Millcreek Courier, which was the ward paper for William and Mary Jonas. “Gaylen was born in Logan on March 14, 1925. He came so near being born on Friday 13th that Mrs. Jonas was on the verge of asking the President to set the clock ahead about 24 hours to insure for her son a lucky beginning. Gaylen enjoys fishing and riding horses. The horse however on one occasion became just a little peeved and didn’t enjoy one bit the caress bestowed upon it by our hero. Being kicked in the face by one of the beasties isn’t a pleasant experience as Gaylen will tell you. He is a member of the 2nd Mormon Battalion having enlisted July 6, 1942. He is the proud possessor of a medal for sharpshooting and is a private in the Marines. Since they entered the service, the paths of Gaylen and Maynard have crossed and they have spent some enjoyable moments together under the palms where Pacific breezes blow. We wish them many more such meetings whenever the opportunity arises.”
“Gaylen, before joining the Marines, had received a severe wound in his leg which could have kept him from military service. But Gaylen would volunteer even though his parents encouraged him to consider not going, he being only 17 years old.
“Two of the many letters that Gaylen wrote will now be included. Mailed 23 September 1943. “Little Brother, well here’s a letter all of your own. Well your eight years old now. Your getting to be a big boy now. When you get big you will make a good Marine. Be nice to your teachers and make good marks in school. Be good until I come home and I’ll bring you a nice, big present. Do you still have your rabbits I gave you? Tell me how many cows and calves we have now. I got to go to bed now. I’m still your pal, Buddy. Your big Brother, Gaylen.”
“This next letter was written 10 June 1944. “Dear Pap, I received four letters from you and ten from Mom. You can see our mail was held up for sometime. I don’t think I will be able to see Del for sometime as we are headed in different directions. Vaughn will sure snap out of it sometime. I was hoping he would get into the M. Marines. I guess it is just as well that he went into the Navy because he may learn a trade that will help him when he gets out sometime. Maynard is on a sub. he travels mostly between Pearl Harbor and Brestone. He doesn’t get much danger but his work is very important. Well pop that makes four of us in the service. I hope we are safely able to get out of this war okay. Tell mom, Grandma and little buddy hello. Love, Gaylen.”
“Two of the people Gaylen served with wrote home to the Jonas family to express their sympathy and to tell the history of Gaylen’s death. The first letter is from Richard B. Wentworth.
“Ebba Thompson, I have been trying to find out P.F.C. Jonas’ address ever since his death. I knew he lived in Salt Lake, but his correct home address I have been unable to obtain or I would have written sooner. I believe I knew Jonas longer than anyone else in the battery. I knew him when he was in the 155 M.M. Batt. and I am proud to say I am one of the many friends that he had while in the Marines. In all the time that (I) knew him I very seldom ever saw him without a smile and a good word for anyone. On Sept. 19th the regiment asked for volunteers to do stretcher bearer duty at the front. There were 9 of us who volunteered for this duty. On this island we knew full our odds of coming out were practically nill. I meant that we would all be exposed continually to enemy fire like ducks in a shooting gallery from the start. We all split up and worked pairs. Jonas and I carried three wounded and went back. A man had been shot in the chest just forward of the front lines after knocking out the pillbox. We went out after him and got caught in enemy machine gun crossfire. Jonas was killed immediately. You may be assured that he never suffered for a moment… I know that this is not in the smallest way adequate, these few words that I have written. So feel perfectly free to write me personally and ask any questions. You can always write my mother if I should change address and she will give it to you…
“This next letter was written by Sgt. L. E. Byington 20 January 1945. “Dear Mrs. Jonas, It sure was a pleasure to hear from you. I want you to know if there’s anything I can do please don’t hesitate to ask I’ll be only glad to help out in anyway I can. When I come home I sure will come and see you all. Gaylen often told me “Blondy I want you to meet my folks when we get a furlough, they are the best parents a guy could want.” He always called me Blondy. He sure thought a lot of his aunt Miss Thompson too. Most people don’t figure that letters from relations interest other people but he used to let me read some of her letters. He sure thought a lot of her. I took two pictures of Gaylen but one negative must have got lost in the mail when I sent it home. I’ve already sent Miss Thompson one picture of Gaylen and another fellow and I. And I told her if she wanted the negative she could write to my folks in Hooper and they’d sent it to her… Sgt. Rawlings and I and three other members of Gaylens platton and three Seabees were there at the dedication of Gaylens grave. Sgt. Rawlings said a wonderful prayer. Yes. I know Corp. Wentworth also. He told me how it happened. It wasn’t compulsory that they went, they asked for volunteers and well Gaylen was the kind of guy who lent a hand wherever a hand was needed regardless of danger. Why things like this happen to our closest friends I’ll never know but his name will never go unremembered. I had to stay on board ship to watch our galley equipment and when I reach camp I was told about him. At first I couldn’t believe it. I was just stunned. It’s just like losing a brother. Gaylen and I used to be in the mess hall together back in San Diego. We used to go on liberty together too. Every time I think about it I’d like to kill a dozen… Those that we’ve captured said they knew they’d lose. All they held out for was to kill. They said you’ll win the war but it will cost you… Well, Mrs. Jonas I’ve enjoyed your letter very much. I’m going to save it so I can always remember you folks and I’m going to try my best to meet you all some day soon. May God be with you always, a friend. Stf. Sgt. L. E. Byington.”
“The next letter is from the secretary of the Navy. “The President of the United States takes pride in presenting the Bronze Star Medal posthumously to PRIVATE FIRST CLASS GAYLEN T. JONAS, UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS RESERVE, for service as set forth in the following Citation: For heroic service while serving with the Twelfth Antiaircraft Artillery Battalion, Fleet Marine Force, in action against enemy Japanese forces on Peleliu, Palau Islands, 19 September 1944. Courageous in the fact of terrific fire from Japanese guns, Private First Class Jonas volunteered to serve as a stretcher bearer during the evacuation of the wounded from the front lines. After the establishment of a shuttle system, he operated between the high ground dominated by hostile enemy snipers and, having assisted in the successful removal of several wounded men, was returning to the front lines to render further assistance when mortally wounded by a Japanese sniper. By his self-sacrificing spirit and daring efforts to save the lives of others, Private First Class Jonas upheld the highest tradition of the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life for his country.”
This comes from a history compiled and written by Jack Johnson as part of his Discovery Area Guides. Jack graduated from Burley High School with my Mom in 1972. He now lives in Hyrum, Utah. This article is in the 2022 Guide for North Cache County, including Smithfield, Richmond, and Lewiston. L.D. is loosely linked to me as I believe he is the nephew of Lorenzo Bowcutt, who married my Great Grandmother Lillian Coley Jonas in 1953 (Ren passed away in 1966).
“When Richmond was settled in the mid-1850’s, a locally-owned landmark business was still over a hundred years from being established. L.D.’s Cafe makes fascinating history live once more.
“Remnants of local history adorn L.D.’s dining area walls, including framed newspaper clippings, historical articles and an American flag. L.D. Bowcutt has been actively running the business since 1959, and loves to relate the history posted on his walls. Ask about his famous rodeo clown relative, or any one of the area’s veterans – each has a story that he’s anxious to tell.
“According to the Herald Journal newspaper article posted on its wall, “L.D.’s father bought this place in 1957. It started out as a poolroom. When the earthquake hit in 1961 this place rolled like a wave.” Wikipedia reports that the quake (it states as 1962) was a magnitude Mw5.9 the morning of August 30, 1962 at 6:35 am local time. With its epicenter just north of Richmond, this quake, Utah’s most costly , caused damages estimated then at $1-2 million dollars ($18.5-20 million in 2020 dollars.)
“L.D. remembers, “My father remodeled it and used some of the fixtures and furniture from the restaurant up the street that he bought because it was condemned by the damage from the earthquake.” Started initially as a bar and pool room, “since August 31, 1962, L.D.’s has served full meals. Before that it was strictly a sandwich and lunch menu.”
“”L.D. says that most of his customers are local people and repeat customers. This place isn’t commercialized or franchised. I can get to know my customers and they get to know me. People come her for sociability to be with their friends and neighbors. A log of business also gets transacted here. Based on comments from the lunch crowd, it would seem like L.D.’s customers return for more than just the comfortable, friendly atmosphere.”
“”He said one day the “champion cow” entered his cafe through the front door and paraded around the pool tables, but something like that only happens during Black and White Days, when the town is filled with horses and cows.”
“A lot of people don’t know that L.D.’s had a private meeting room upstairs. Bowcutt says that for a long time the area’s riding club would meet upstairs to shoot the bull and plan events.
“Serving two terms on the Richmond city council, L.D. Has been heavily involved in local interests. He tells how after the Richmond bank was robbed int he early 1960’s the bank manager had a buzzer installed to ring at the cafe. He’d return the call to the bank, whose employees knew when he asked, “Is L.D. there?” – a positive answer meant there was trouble, a negative meant all was well. His cafe also served as the communications center for the local volunteer fire department, sounding a warning siren whenever help was needed.
“L.D.’s daughter Lori, and grandson, J.R. Hoggan, are also actively involved, but J.R. is quick to point out that L.D. is really the heart of the business. Now in his eighties, L.D. still takes over at the grill quite often, filling every order the L.D.’s way – with healthy home-cooked meals. Hungry for meat and potatoes, burger, seafood of breakfast? You’ll find it all and a whole lot more – traditions of excellence and community involvement at L.D.’s Cafe in Richmond.
“L.D. states, “You need to be really sharp to compete with the big restaurant chains and stay open for business, and I think my cafe is the last of its kind.”
“Source: Conversation with L.D. Bowcutt Nov. 2, 2022, Wikipedia search “Earthquake – Logan, UT.
I thought it would be appropriate to commemorate the 100th birthday of my Grandpa, Wilburn Norwood Jonas. He went by Norwood his whole life, or Nor to those closest.
Grandpa was born 15 May 1924 in Lewiston, Cache, Utah to Lillian Coley and Joseph Nelson Jonas. The fourth child of eight to his parents. He marriedColleen Mary Andra 27 September 1946 in Elko, Elko, Nevada. Three children were born to him and Colleen; Douglas in 1952, Sandra in 1954, and Jackie in 1960. He died 14 March 1975 in Burley, Cassia, Idaho and was buried 19 March 1975 in Richmond, Cache, Utah.
I was trying to think of a way to commemorate Grandpa. As linked above, I have written of him before. This week, I went through an old book I have that belong to Norwood’s dad, Joseph. Inside were some newspaper clippings and notes. One linked to Grandpa. I share it to show that research is ongoing and can be found anywhere! Just takes a little luck, heaven’s guidance, and you will stumble on them. I will wrote more on the book and other clippings inside later.
Park School was in Richmond. It was only razed in the past few years. Grandpa went to North Cache High School, although he did not graduate. This clipping also has Irwin written in to it. Which tells me he was missed or it is the wrong Jonas boy that was listed. Although, I do have a class picture of Irwin and Norwood together, so I am not clear if that tips it one way or the other.
“Name Graduates of Park School

Here is the class picture with many of these same names. It also includes Irwin and Norwood. I have written about it previously.
I was trying to find some photos and stumbled upon my Mom’s graduation pamphlet I had scanned a few years ago. Thought maybe it was time to share it, especially where I have seen some of her classmates have passed away recently.
