(The following story was printed in, "A Biographical History of Nodaway and Atchison Counties Missouri,: Published Chicago, 1901; The Lewis Pub. Company)
"The subject of this sketch, one of the leading and influential citizens of Barnard, Missouri, was born in Pulaski county, Kentucky, June 29, 1838, and is a son of James F. and Rachel (SPEARS) HAINEY, also natives of Kentucky. His paternal grandparents were James and Nancy (CRITTENDEN) HAINEY, the latter a cousin of Hon. John J. CRITTENDEN, of national fame, and also a relative of Thomas CRITTENDEN, ex-governor of Missouri. In early life the grandfather, James HAINEY, was a farmer and blacksmith of North Carolina, but spent his last days in Kentucky as a minister of the Baptist church. He was never a slave-owner, and was a man highly respected and esteemed by all who knew him. His old flint-lock gun, which he carried at the battle of New Orleans during the war of 1812, is now in possession of our subject and will be handed down to future generations as a relic. It was also used by the great-grandfather in the Revolutionary War, and in killing Indians as well as wild game. In the family of James HAINEY, Sr., were nine children, namely:
William HAINEY
Thomas C. HAINEY
John HAINEY
James HAINEY, Jr.
Polly HAINEY
Nancy HAINEY
Sally HAINEY
Anna HAINEY
Abby HAINEY
Our subject's maternal grandfather, William SPEARS, was a prominent farmer and slave-owner of Kentucky and an influential Democrat. His children were:
William SPEARS
Hezekiah SPEARS
John SPEARS
Mrs. Fanny DICK
Mrs. Nancy ALLEN
Mrs. Sarah DYE
Mrs. Patsy ROY
Mrs. Betsy DAVENPORT
Mrs. Rachel HAINEY
James HAINEY, Jr., the father of our subject, followed farming in Kentucky until April, 1851, when he removed with his family to Missouri and entered land and improved a farm, making it his home until his death in 1862. He was a Douglas Democrat and a supporter of the Union during the Civil war. He was a true southern gentlemen and a consistent member of the Baptist Church. After his death his wife lived with our subject, where she died in 1894 (probably should be 1892).
Their children were:
P. J. HAINEY (of this review)
Abigail, the wife of L. ADAMS
Harriette, the wife of F. M. WALL
Louisa, the wife of John PULLEY
Nancy, the wife of W. H. SHEPARD (Shepherd)
Milford HAINEY, who died in Kentucky
Dicy, the wife of J. E. LAMASTER (should be J. L.)
Jane, the wife of W. T. Mc Makin (should be spelled Mc Makin)
Samuel A. HAINEY, a resident of this county.
Two of the sons were soldiers of the Union Army during the Civil War.
P. J. HAINEY accompanied his parents on their removal to this state in 1851, and remained at home until reaching manhood. For a time he pursued his studies in a log school house, and through his own exertions has obtained a good practical education. In 1861 he enlisted in a volunteer militia organization to resist Caleb Jackson's attempts at secession. . . . "
The following paragraph referring to P. J. HAINEY, is excerpted from, "The Civil War and Nodaway County, Missouri, Part II, Military Data of 3,041 Civil War Soldiers," by Martha L. Cooper, 1989)
". . . . His command was in this congressional district and he remained most of the time in the vicinity of St. Joseph. In 1864 he enlisted in the 16th Iowa Volunteer Infantry and was with Sherman on the march to the sea. When Lee surrendered, P. J. was ill and in the hospital at Willet's Point, Long Island and from there sent home. While en route home he heard of Lincoln's death. Mustered out at Davenport, Iowa, June 5, 1865, after serving four years. Was constable, notary, abstract business in Barnard."
(The following story was printed in the, "Illustrated Historical Atlas of Nodaway County Missouri - Containing Maps of Villages, Cities and Townships of the County" Published by the Anderson Publishing Co. 1911, Reprinted 1979 by Unigraphic, Inc.")
"I was born in Pulaski County, Kentucky, June 29, 1838, and lived there with my parents, James F. and Rachel HAINEY, until March 15, 1851, when we started for Missouri with two yoke of oxen and an old-time crooked wagon-bed, now called box. We meandered along, many days to Louisville with a tendered-footed team, having been on the pike several days. In the meantime having traveled about one hundred and thirty miles, then father concluded to board a steamer at Louisville.
We came down the Ohio and up the Mississippi to St. Louis, was aboard the Lexington, by her officers claimed to be the fastest boat on the river. Accidentally or intentionally we fell in with a find packet from New Orleans soon after we struck the Mississippi River; said boat's crew seemed to dispute our title as the speediest boat, and Oh! such a boat race as we had! It lasted for several hours and our boat won the race, reaching St. Louis first. Many had not yet recovered from their scare over that desperate race. We changed boats at St. Louis, taking an old slow steamer, named " Anthony Wayne " for St. Joseph, Missouri. The river had not begun its spring rise and was low and full of sandbars and snags. The prevailing strong spring winds were facing our boat and the wind and obstructive sandbars conspired against us to the extent that we were 11 days from St. Louis to St. Joseph, then a mere village; and landed there on the evening of April 13, 1851. Pulled out of St. Joe by ox team on the morning of the 14th for Nodaway County, reached near the county line south of where Guilford now is on the evening of the 16th of April.
Father located about three miles southeast of Guilford, where neighbors were scarce, but they were of the true-blue kind and thought nothing of going from two to five miles to wait on and watch with the sick. We had no buggies, spring wagons or horse wagons of any kind, but worked Buck and Bright, or Tom and Jersey. (oxen)
We had no laid out or worked roads, but generally meandered with the ridges and followed Indian trails for crossing of streams, for in most places the streams were miry and impossible to cross, but Indian trails always led to gravel or rock crossings where it was safe fording. A bridge, large or small, was not to be found in the community.
We got our mail once a week if streams were not too high or snow not too deep. It was delivered at Whitisville in Andrew County, carried on horse-back from Savannah. A small sack was ample space for the weekly mail for all the northern part of Andrew and southern part of Nodaway counties.
The lands of Nodaway County were nearly all vacant or government lands, the few pre-emptions that had been made were without exception along the streams and composed of timber tracts. Five to fifteen acres composed the farms, twenty-five acres in cultivation was then a big farm. People required but little tillable land as they had but little stock and it run at large and required but little except when snow covered the ground, and stock of all kinds flourished and fattened on the range. Mast being abundant, hogs became well fattened, beside wild game was abundant; all kinds from the deer to the squirrel, consequently wild meat was plentiful.
The Indians had recently left here and gone to Kansas and Nebraska and owned and occupied all west of St. Joseph and the Missouri River, but often returned and camped for the winter along the streams for the purpose of hunting and trapping, and their adroit manner of packing their ponies from ears to tail with cured furs would be interesting at this date.
Schools were rare, few and far between, and not more than three months term in any year, but some of us walked three miles to school and did learn a little about spellin', readin', writin' and 'rithametic, and only a little, for we had to stay at home and haul wood for two big fireplaces or go to mill one-third of the school term.
Preaching was almost as scarce as schools and was only had once every month or two at the log school house. It had a sod top and the windows had neither sash nor glass. It was heated by a fireplace and the worshippers sat on seats made of puncheons set upon lets. But then everybody attended meeting, young and old, maybe on foot or horseback and often the whole family went in an ox wagon including the beaux of the daughters. But the daughters and their beaux were different from this day and did not spread on so much style. But I think were just as pretty and as honest. Did much more work, thereby got manual exercise which produced muscle sufficient for any emergency and resulted in rosy cheeks and red lips without artificial means. BUT WHAT ANOTHER SIXTY YEARS WILL BRING FORTH, I DO NOT EVEN PREDICT."
P. J. HAINEY "In The Newspaper Business"
(Excerpted from a booklet entitled, "Centennial History, Barnard, Missouri 1870-1970")
"Story of Barnard Newspaper"
(Reprint from The Barnard Bulletin - May 3, 1923)
"The Barnard newspaper has attained a prominent place among the papers of Nodaway County and probably no other paper in the county has had as checkered a career. At times since it was established there has been no paper at all and at other times it has passed with rapid succession from owner to owner. Some editors have owned it several different times and for a considerable length of time. . . . . .
P. J. HAINEY bought out J. Z. CURNUTT in 1889, and published a newspaper that was known as "The Barnard Rustler ." The Rustler was one of the best known papers in Northwest Missouri and was freely quoted by other publications. Hainey had his office in a building south of Hotel Bolin. This building later was destroyed by fire.
After Hainey had obtained a reasonable success as an editor, he sold out to Reed Brothers. . . . . .
The Barnard paper has always been non-partisan except during the time P. J. HAINEY was editor when it inclined very heavily to the support of the Democratic party. . . .
The early mechanical equipment of the office was very meager, being just enough to get out the paper and do a little commercial printing. P. J. HAINEY installed a cylinder press ran by power, and had the best equipment by far up to that time. . . . . . "
P. J. HAINEY and wife, Jane MARLOW, had at least four children. Information about the children has been obtained from the 1901 biography, Will and Probate papers of P. J. Hainey, and stones at Masonic Cemetery, Barnard, Nodaway County, Missouri.

Nettie M. HAINEY
Named in her father's 1901 biography and was said to be living at Barnard, MO. Listed in the application for probate of will document as Nettie THOMPSON, living Phoenix, Arizona in 1923.

The Crittenden Compromise
U.S. Senator John Jordan Crittenden of Kentucky, a prominent supporter of the Union, proposed a compromise in December 1860 to avert secession. Crittenden and others hoped that a further concession might appease the South. His proposals were designed to provide that slavery would be prohibited in territories north of latitude 36°30' N, the line established by the Missouri Compromise, but protected south of that line. Under his plan, slavery could not be abolished in any state where it existed unless that state consented, and the federal government would compensate owners of fugitive slaves if it was established that the slaves had escaped with outside assistance. Lincoln disapproved of the Crittenden Compromise, which contributed to its rejection in Congress by the House of Representatives in January 1861 and by the United States Senate in March.
The Civil War
The failure of Crittenden's compromise presaged the outbreak of the American Civil War (1861-1865) in April. Kentucky's governor, Beriah Magoffin, refused both the Union's and the Confederacy's call for volunteers. In May the state legislature resolved that Kentucky would take no part in the fighting, and Magoffin issued a proclamation declaring the state to be neutral in the conflict. Because of the state's strategic location, neither side fully respected Kentucky's neutrality. Recruiters from both the Union and the Confederacy enlisted Kentuckians. First the Confederacy, then the Union, began moving troops into the state. Throughout the war Kentucky remained at the mercy of the occupying armies.

In 1882, while living at home with his family in Saint Joseph, Missouri, under the name of Thomas Howard, James was shot from behind by Robert Ford, a member of his own gang. Ford had been seeking the $10,000 reward offered by Governor Thomas Theodore Crittenden of Missouri for the capture of the James brothers, dead or alive. Soon after his brother's death, Frank James surrendered. The American public treated him as a hero and he was acquitted twice; he died in 1915 at his Missouri farm.

Notes for JAMES L. LAMASTER:
The following is transcribed from the book, "A Biographical History of Nodaway and Atchison Counties Missouri, published Chicago, 1901.
"James L. LAMASTER, a descendant of an honored pioneer family and one of the leading farmers of Nodaway county, was born January 30, 1843, in Morgan county, Kentucky. He was a son of Benjamin and Elizabeth (WYERMAN) LAMASTER, both of Kentucky when married.
Elijah LAMASTER, the grandfather of our subject, was of French descent and was one of the early settlers of Kentucky. He was a very prominent man and was well liked by all who knew him. His children were: Benjamin, the father of our subject; Ambrose; William; Isaac; and Lewis, who moved to Missouri and then to California. Benjamin LAMASTER was reared in Kentucky, where he remained until after his marriage. After the fall of 1859, he settled in Andrew county, Missouri, where he rented a farm for two years. He then bought a farm, which he sold a few years later and moved to St. Joseph, Missouri, where he ran an express wagon until his death, which occurred in 1889. In politics he was a Republican. He married Elizabeth WYERMAN, a daughter of Jacob WYERMAN, a miller and farmer by occupation. Jacob WYERMAN died at the age of one hundred years and left as his children John, Elizabeth, Polly, Benjamin, Margaret, Jemima, Bunyon, William, James, Nancy, Jackson and Sarah. Mr. LAMASTER and his wife had eight children, namely: John, of Oklahoma; J. L., the subject of this sketch; Jemima , the wife of R. McMackin Elizabeth, who married H. EDWARDS; Nancy J., the wife of John McCOY; Elijah, of Oklahoma; Melvina, the wife of F. HANKS; and William, of St. Joseph. Mr. LAMASTER was seventy-one years old at the time of his death, and his wife died at the age of seventy-three.
J. L. LAMASTER, whose name heads this sketch, was educated in the common schools of his native place. He moved from Kentucky to Missouri with his parents when fifteen years old, and grew up on the Platte purchase. He remained under the parental roof until he was of age, and in 1861 enlisted in Kimball's regiment of the state militia, serving six months. In August, 1864, he enlisted in the Forty-third Regiment, Missouri Volunteer Infantry, and was assigned to the western department. He did good service looking after government property and bushwhackers. A portion of his regiment was captured at the battle of Glasgow, but the company which Mr. Lamaster was in was not captured. He received an honorable discharge at Benton Barracks, St. Louis, and also his pay, June 30, 1865.
Returning to Andrew County, he resumed work on his father's farm until 1866, when he bought one hundred and sixty acres of land in Nodaway county. When he came to this county it was but sparsely settled and the land upon which he moved was but little improved, having nothing but a small log cabin on it. In 1867 he married and in 1868 sold this farm and bought an interest in the HAINEY place. He now owns one hundred and eighteen acres of this place, and on it he has built a comfortable home and commodious barns and outbuildings. He is a self-made man, having acquired all of his possessions by hard work and perseverance. He married Dicy C. HAINEY, who was born in Kentucky, a daughter of James F. HAINEY, who was one of the early settlers of the Platte purchase. He was a highly respected farmer. Our subject owns the old Hainey homestead. Mr. Hainey's children were: P. J., a prominent man of Barnard; Abigail, the wife of L. ADAMS; Harriet, the wife of F. M. WALL; Louisa, the wife of J. PULLY; Dicy, the wife of our subject; Milford; Lucinda, who married William T. McMAKIN; Nancy C., the wife of William SHEPHARD; and Samuel.
Mr. LAMASTER had four children by his first marriage, namely: Ida, who married B. GIFT; Mary M., the wife of H. LAMASTER; William T., deceased; Dicy, deceased. Mrs. LAMASTER died December 2, 1872. She was a consistent member of the Methodist church. Mr. LAMASTER remarried, January 1, 1874, when Mary A. HENDERSON, a daughter of Widows and Margaret (IRVIN) HENDERSON, became his wife. Widows HENDERSON, Mrs. Lamaster's grandfather, was a prominent physician and farmer of Ohio, where he owned large tracts of land. He was a Whig in politics, but during the Civil War became a Republican. He died in Andrew county, Missouri, where he settled on the Platte purchase. His children were Rebecca, Anna, Nelson, Noah, Sally, Abel, Katie, Widows, Gilford and Mary. Widows HENDERSON, a farmer was married, in Missouri, to Margaret IRVIN. They settled in Nodaway county in 1866. Mr. HENDERSON was a strong Republican and served in the state militia for six months during the Civil war. He died in Missouri in 1893, and his wife, who survives him, makes her home with a son in St. Joseph, though visiting among the other children very often. Margaret (IRVIN) HENDERSON was a daughter of Frank IRVIN, who was of Irish descent and a farmer of Tennessee. He reared a large number of children: Maskin, Hampton, Rachel, Cynthia, Betsy, Robert, Eliza, Margaret and James. The parents were members of the Christian church. Widows HENDERSON had six children, namely: E. W., a business man of St. Joseph, Missouri; Missouri J., the wife of J. M. MILLER; Mary A., the wife of our subject; Elizabeth, who married W. SHARP; Florence, who died young; and Dora C. These parents were also members of the Christian church.
Mr. Lamaster and his wife have four children, namely: John E., Walter S., James L. and Arlan R. Our subject receives a small pension."
James L. LAMASTER is buried at Weathermon Cemetery, near Barnard, Nodaway County Missouri. His tombstone is inscribed with the dates 1855 - 1922. These dates seem to be incorrect. An article in The Civil War and Nodaway County, lists his death date as August 19, 1921. His own biography lists his birth date as Jan 30, 1843. There are also stones at this cemetery for John E. LAMASTER - 1875-1918; and Gertrude LAMASTER - Feb 20, 1908/Nov 5, 1918. It is inscribed, "Our Darling." No information about this person. The only other information we have about the children of James Lamaster's second marriage is that the first name of James Luther Lamaster's wife was Gertrude, and that Arling R. Lamaster's wife was Amanda.
