John Thomas Bayle
John Thomas was about 16 years older than Carrie. John was a lawyer & farmer. The picture I have of John shows he was about 5ft.-8in. dark hair and eyes. He wore a mustache and a goatee. Carrie told a daughter-in-law John would have really made a good lawyer if he hadn't been taken so early in life. John died at age 42 years. I've heard John Bayle died from falling on a pine knot in the woods. As they carried him out he said in his Irish brogue "Carry me aisey (easy) boys carry me aisey". Carrie paid "John was such a kind & good man. He treated me so good. But that man never had wood for me when he went lawing it". She called it lawing & he would be gone a couple days. When John died Carrie was 26 years old. Carrie had 5 children 8 years old & younger to raise. On Dec.31, 1893 John Thomas Bayle's younger brother Michael married Carrie.

Written by his sister-in-law, Betty Bayle
Mary would spend 1 or 2 weeks in the summer with Warley her half brother on the farm. We had an outside toilet. As a young girl I remember her heading for the tiolet, her cane in one hand & a roll of toilet paper in the other. She came up on Sam, a collie dug, who was deaf, She stopped & dropped the roll of t.p., took out her aid 7 put it in Sam's ear. Then not being able to hear herself, started hollaring: "Hi Sam, can you hear me"? That poor old dog jumped up & started wagging his tail. Me hadn't heard in years & didn't know what was happening. You never have a camera when you need one. She was one great lady!

Family stories as told by Ellsworth Bayle is mostly what I know about George, as he was killed in France in World War I. He was a woodsman & farmer that took Harley Bayle under his wing when Harley was 16 & wanted to go with George. They lived together on the farm in Oceana Co. Ellsworth use to stay with them at times. He said George had a lame leg, but war able to get in the service. He had a great sense of humor, & loved to read & talk about all kinds of things, although his education was limited. I don't know what he looked like, as the only picture is not clear. They say he was more deeply religious than some of the others. He insisted on an operation after getting in the service, so he could continue in the army. They wanted to discharge him & send him back home. He never married. Written by his sister-in-law, Betty Bayle
George had his Life Insurance left to Harley with the understanding that if George didn't return from the war, Harley was to have a house built for their mother. That's where the new house in Levitt Township, Oceana Co. came from. You can still see the old home behind it. Written by his niece, Iva Janet Bayle Winkler Johnson

9. Mary Ann Bayle #389 (2.John2, 1.Martin1) born 11 Aug 1855, Shefford Co, Quebec, Canada, married 11 Nov 1872, in Waterloo, Canada, William Conley #1143, born 24 May 1848, Canada, died 10 Aug 1934, buried: Volney Cemetary, Volney, MI. Mary died 19 Apr 1937, buried: Volney Cemetary, Volney, MI. After Mary Ann Bayle & William Conley were married they came from Canada, settling in Spring Lake & then came to the Volney, Michigan area, They were of the Roman Catholic Faith. Grammy, as she was known to me, in the age I knew her, was a plump lady. She had gray hair worn in a bun on top & sometimes braided. Eyes were blue & a very creamy Irish complexion. She was conservative with money & kept a small amount in the secretive place- she referred to as her bosom "Breast area on chest." Her doctor was well aware of this & would say "oh come now Mary Ann--dig down." She had a sharp mind & was a gutsy character. She chased a bear away from the house in Spring Lake where she & son James Conley were at home when he was a child. Her only weapon was a pitchfork. She could recite poetry & song from memory but couldn't carry a tune. She would tell grandpa the words to the songs & he would sing in his Irish tenor voice. Both she & grandpa lived in the same house as us. Shortly after noon she would ask me "Has the news arrived yet?" Meaning the rural carrier. When she sneezed she would say "Bless Leonard". My mother would ask "What about your other grandsons?" Her reply was "They don't need it nearly as much as Leonard." My Grandma Conley was said to have smoked a pipe but was careful in that no one was to see her do so. Also Grammy read romance novels & Grandpa was not too happy with her for doing this. Grandma & Grandpa Conley lost their daughter Lucy Conley Christensen in death because of what they called "consumption" in those days. She was only 31 years of age. Grandma died in 1937 at age 82 years of age. As the body left St. Leo's the church bell foiled 82 times. Once for every year of her life. She was the last to be buried from St. Leo*s Catholic Church & its final Mass. The church was torn down in 1942,I believe. St. Leo church was north of Volney. Written by her grandson, Keith C. Conley 6/15/1993 William: William Conley was the husband of Mary Ann Bayle. My Grandpa Conley was my first experience with the death of a loved one. I was a 10-year-old at the time. I will always remember how friends & relatives sat all night & watched & prayed over his body in the typical Irish wake. Grandpa Bill was born in WaterLoo, Montreal, Canada. He immigrated to the U.S.A., settling first in Spring Lake. He has his parents & brothers buried there. I have visited the graves because my great grandparents & uncles are there. Grandpa & Grammy finally settled at the old homestead north of Vonley, Mi. Grandpa Bill & my dad, James, helped build the old Catholic Church there on the corner of 11 Mile Road & Dickinson Avenue. As my grandpa, he was a gray-haired gentleman, partially bald on the very top. Blue eyes, & in his older years, quite shrunken but very active & walked with a cane & wore a derby hat. When he walked to the Catholic Church down the road 1/8-mile in his dark suit, white shirt, derby hat, clay pipe & cane, it made me proud to say he was my Grandpa Conley. At the farm sales he always had a ringside seat because he loved to buy livestock. He was known as a jockey because of his trading & love of horses. In my youth, he would let me smoke his clay pipes. He would regale me with ghost stories & mythical animals he called Sidehill gougers because their legs were longer on one side than the other so they could walk around hills & still be level. I saw him dance an Irish Jig when he was in his 80s. He had a good tenor voice & would sing songs like "The Little Drummer Boy". He would sing "Wearing of the Green" with tears in his eyes when he thought of the Irish in old Ireland & how they were subjugated through the years. The long row of Maple trees running north along the highway the width of the farm were all planted by him. The farm he & Mary Ann Bayle Conley started from scratch, still remains where the house, barn & granary still stands on Section 6, Beaver Township, Newaygo Co., MI. One other thing I would like all decedents of the Bayle & Conley families to remember is this: Both Mary Ann & Grandpa Bill took with them the last true Irish Brogue as the Bayle & Conley families truly spoke it. Grandpa would precede a statement with & "I say, I say". They are buried in their Catholic faith in the Volney Cemetery, where the plot must be blessed by a priest. The church bell foiled 86 time as the body left the church. Once for every year of his life. We traveled to Ireland. My observation being that county Clare where Great Grammy, Mary Clary Bayle, was born was rolling hills much like Volney & Elbridge, Mi. Written by His Grandson, Keith C. Conley 9/15/1993

13. Michael (Mike) Bayle #384 (2.John2, 1.Martin1) born 15 Mar 1864, Shefford Co, Quebec, Canada, married 31 Dec 1893, in Leavitt Township, Oceana Co., Michigan, Caroline (Carrie) Elizebeth Henning #208, born 26 Nov 1866, Leavitt Township, Oceana Co., Michigan, died 21 Jun 1938, Grand Rapids, Michigan, buried: Volney Cemetary, Volney, MI. Michael died 4 Dec 1928, at home in Oceana Co., buried: Volney Cemetary, Volney, MI. Church records say born March 14, 1864 John Thomas Bayle's widow married Mike. Mike, my father was Irish & came from Canada to Michigan where he lived with his parents till he married his brother's widow, Caroline Henning Bayle, who had 5 children from her first marriage. Mike & Caroline were married on Dec.31, 1893 in Oceans Co. MI. They had 6 of their own children & lived on a farm. My father was a hard working man. I remember the older kids saying that Dad put a lantern on the horse's mane so he could work after dark & before daylight in the morning. Dad had a very good voice & would sing to me often at night. We lived on a farm in Oceana Co. after we moved from the river in Newaygo Co. Dad bought a house in Walkerville for mom & I so I could go to high school, but he died before I finished. Dad was a strict person but fair & treated both families of kids alike. He thought of them all as his sons & daughters. Written by his daughter, Thelma Bayle McCracken
I was only in the family 1 year & 2 months before Mike died, so had very little chance to know him well. He always had a heavy growth of beard on his face. The John Thomas Bayle children said that as young people growing up, they remembered Mike Bayle as their father, clearing the farm for raising crops by burning brush until 11:00 P.M. Then getting up at 4:30 AM to start again, as it was mostly wooded acreage when he married Carolina. He would often spend winters in the lumber camps to earn extra money for getting the crops started in the spring & the extras the family needed. Mike had a beautiful singing voice & The children said as he headed home at night they could hear him singing, his voice really carried. He was ill the year or so I was in the family & often could only eat milk toast. He died in Dec. 1928 from what was called a stone Cancer. Written by his daughter-in-law, Betty Bayle
Mike & Caroline moved to the place on the Pare Marquette River in Newaygo Co. after their 2nd child Harley was born. The children walked 3 or 4 miles to school at Troy. This place was later in the hands of the State. In the 1950's Mike's nephew & John Thomas Bayle's grandson, Harley B. Sutton called Ted, purchased it. Children went to Gowdy School when they lived in Caroline's home. Caroline: My mother married young & was widowed early having a family of small children, she remarried & had six of us kids with my Dad. Mom lived on a farm. I was poor. She worked hard at raising her family. She lost one of her older sons in the First World War & two daughters from the second family. One died at birth I one in her twenties.

That's where the new house in Levitt Township, Oceana Co. came from. You can still see the old home behind it. Written by his niece, Iva Janet Bayle Winkler Johnson

James died 19 Oct 1952, buried: Volney Cemetary, Volney, MI. Some say he was born in Spring Lake, Michigan J. Conley was to all records in the Conley family born in Ottawa County, Spring Lake, Mi. I, Keith, am his son. In his youth, he was about 6ft. 2in. tall, had dark brown hair which was wavy or curly. His wt. was 170-175. In his elderly years, he was bald on the top with a rather heavy fringe around the back & sides. His wt. went up to about 200 lb. but he was a very healthy man. He left Spring Lake & settled on section 6, Beaver Township, Newaygo, County. At that location he & his parents, William & Mary Ann, homesteaded the old farm there, much of what still remains. In the early 1900s, it was known as the showpiace of the area. James was known by many names: James, Jim, Connie & others. Besides farming, he owned a general store at Vonley. He was an auctioneer & clerk & held many township offices. He helped build the Catholic Church at 11 Mile & Dickinson, North of Volney. He was a one time Lumberjack & continued logging over the years & he leased oil lands for the Sun Oil Company. Being Irish, he was quite well known for his story telling & was much sought after for such. Like his mother he could tell stories & recite poetry from memory. However, he would embellish his own experiences, he would tell his listeners "Well I'll tell you now I put horns on that one" or "that was a cock crowing bull story". He would try to sing but this was not his forte because every song was sung with the same tune. He loved to play baseball & listen to the games. He also was quite a fighter even though he didn't have a temper. He said they did it for fun & there were no hard feelings. A typical "Irish free-for-all". James J. Conley was the one who found his Grandma Bayle dead in her little house across from the old St. Leos Catholic Church. He is buried in the Volney Cemetery with his wife Ella May Conley, who both died in the Catholic faith. He always said Grandma Clary Bayle was the best Christian woman he ever knew. Written by his son, Keith C. Conley 6/15/1993 Ella: Ella May Newville was born of Charles Newville and Leona Wakefield in Ravenna, Michigan. She moved to Klondike, Michigan and in her early years married James J. Conley. Ella May, in her youthful years, was a slender girl about 5' 5" in height and weight of about 140. Her hair was brown as were her eyes. In her later years, her weight went up to around 200 lbs. and she became very plump. Her complexion was quite dark, this being the French breeding, but quite attractive. She married James Conley at an early age and they lived in or around the Volney, Michigan area most of their lives. Ella only had a 5th grade education but she was highly skilled for the amount of schooling she had. She ran the store at Volney when dad was about other projects. She was also very efficient about the farm. Her cooking was considered to be unmatched by many. She could make a meal from nothing. One joke we had was "Where is Mrs. Conley?" And we would say "0h, she's out pulling milk weed for supper, milkweed greens!" She liked to sing or dance when happy, she would be singing to herself while working. She was always good hearted and would take care of the needy when she could. She was very witty. There was Kaplin's store in Walkerville. Mother said J. Kaplin was Jewish and had a Jewish clerk. Mother Ella wanted some men's pants so she told the clerk. He turned to Jake Kaplin and said "Jake, take down your pants and show the lady what you got." Another time we had a black friend working for us and we asked him to have noon meal with us. He said fine and as we ate he was telling us of something he fixed that no one else had been able to accomplish. The black gentlemen's name was Walter Green. Mother attempted to compliment him and without thinking she said, "Well, you aren't as green as you look." Mother Ella May Conley is buried as a Catholic with husband James and daughter Pearl in the Volney cemetery in a plot Blessed by a priest. Written by her Son, Keith C. Conley 6/15/1993

Harley died 12 Jun 1978, Hart, Michigan, buried: Volney Cemetary, Volney, MI. Harley was the oldest son of Mike & Caroline Bayle. He was 5' 11" & weighed about 150 Lbs. Slim frame, dark hair & like the others showed the Italian blood from his mother's side of the family. He owned a farm east of Walkerville, which he sold to prepare to go into WWI. The war ended before he could get in. Harley married Elsie Inez Kalman on Aug. 6,1921 in Hart, Mi. Elsie was born July 31,1903 in Walkerville, Mi.. Elsie died Nov.16, 1977 in Hart, Mi. Buried Volney Cemetery, Volney, Mi.. They courted with a horse & buggy. They were married 56 years. On their 50th Anniversary they were. remarried in the Volney Church by Pastor Andrew Visser. Harley worked for the Pere Marquette railroad awhile, but he didn't like the city. He lived most of his life around Walkervilla. He worked mostly in the woods or farming. We lived on the large 360 area farm while I was growing up. He was up before daylight milking cows & milking after dark. He worked all day In the fields except for one hour right after Lunch, that was his beauty nap. In 1956 we sold the farm because of Dad's health. We bought the Bayle homestead by Walkerville. He did some logging with his son Herb. My Dad loved hunting, fishing & telling stories. We used to go to the river (Mike's homestead) fishing. It seemed like such a long time & I never caught anything. Dad bought me a gun when I was about 12 yrs. old. Oh the fun we had running down the corn rows, Raccoon hunting at night. He spoke of his mother with nothing but love. Mother always said Dad was just like his mother. Soft spoken, calm, made friends with everyone & was always willing to help anyone. Long on patience with his Grandchildren. Loved & respected by them all. Written by his daughter, Iva Bayle Winkler Johnson
A remark made by his son-in-law: "I didn't get him as a father, but Thank God he was my father-in-law"
Elsie: Elsie Inez Kalman Bayle was the wife of Harley Bayle & my mother. She told me she weighted 110 Lbs. when she married at 18 years old. I was born when she was about 35 yrs. old, so I only remember her with gray in her hair & weighing about 200 Lbs.. She was about 5ft.4 in. Mom wore her hair in a bun on the back of her head until I was in my teens when she had it cut short with a curly perm. As she got older she had snow white hair. Mom never wore makeup or dyed her hair. She used blue white in her washing & being afraid her hair might get a yellow cast as older folks sometimes do she tried blue white in her hair. It gave it a blue tint & mom was so embarrassed she never tried that again nor did she leave the house until it was gone. Mom loved people & everyone loved her. She was the best cook I ever seen & that was not only my idea, but everyone that ate at our house & that was a lot of people. We didn't have a telephone so many times mom didn't know who or how many would be there for Sunday dinner. She didn't have a deep freeze so she just opened more canned beef, chicken or pork. I'd freak out if I got surprise dinner guests but mom took it all in strife. Hunting season & weekends our home was always full. I can still envision mom by the wood stove with large black cast iron frying pans, frying venison for a table of hungry hunters. Mom was not only my mom she was my friend. We lived on a 360-acre farm, 3/4 mile off the main road. Mom played with me, as I was the only child home. She helped me fix a playhouse in the corn crib & she would slid down the hill with me in the winter. Dad tapped Maple trees every year & we would gather the sap with a tractor. Dad built a small platform on the back of the tractor on which sat mom & 2-10 gallon milk cans. I rode on my dad's lap & we went through a big mud hole & kept going! Dad finally looked back & there sat mom in the mud hole, she was MAD! She said "You done that on purpose". She was ready to help anyone & she was a hard worker. As mom got older she got arthritis real bad & so she sat & worked. She was so fast with her hands. I remember once in a fruit factory we had to trim 8 apples a min; mom done 16 apples. Mom had an 8th grade 9ducation, but she helped me with my schoolwork when I was in High School. Mom suffered Cancer twice & she said, "why do we get what we fear worst". I was very thankful I got the chance to lead both of my parents to the Lord. I couldn't have asked for a better Mother & friend. Written by her daughter, Iva Janet Bayle Winkler Johnson

He wasn't very healthy & was sickly most of his life. Leon worked on the farm for a while & later he went to Grand Rapids & worked. He was a quiet person that didn't bother people much. He did his best to get along with everyone. He loved the woods & fields. He could walk up to you without making a noise & he loved animals. Leon loved to read & had a lot of books that he got from people from Chicago that owned a cabin across the river from us. He winterized the cabin in the fall & got it ready in the spring for them. When Mom rented the farm before it was sold, the renters took Leon's books. I have the only one left. Leon died at an early age leaving his wife & an adopted daughter.

He was a good religious catholic, & loved to read & further educate himself. He went to night school, after he moved to Grand Rapids, & read whatever he could find to read from boyhood. He was always somewhat frail, but always tried to do his share. He was a bit different from the other boys in the family, but he tried hard to be like everyone else.

He had a deep devotion to his mother. He loved family reunions & always attended all funerals if possible. He was Catholic. Written by his wife, Betty Bayle Sarah: Sarah called, Aunt Batty or Aunt "Bet" is a short stocky lady with white hair. She is a kind I lovely lady who raised two daughters & later took Ellsworth's oldest half sister, Mary Bayle Garvay into their home to care for her. Aunt Batty worked at Michigan Bulb Co. & she put a lot of time & work into her yards both on the old homestead & in Grandville, Mi. When they lived In Walkerville on the old homestead she worked with P.T,A. 6 put together a mock wedding. A lot of work, she must of had about 30 children from 3 or 4 years old to probably 16-17 years old. It was a big success. Always willing to listen & help when she can. She has helped me with this book & stories. She didn't think she should have a story in here because she wasn't born a Bayle, but I disagree & I wrote this little note as I think she has that right after all these years. More years a Bayle than a Yoder Aunt Betty. We love you. Written by her niece, Iva Janet Bayle Winkler Johnson

Michigan, Francis Edward Winkler #575, born 2 Apr 1936, Wisconsin, occupation Genral Morors, married (2) 27 Jul 1974, in Spring Lake, Michigan, David Lee Johnson #578, born 29 Jul 1940, Muskegon, Michigan, (son of Carl Lloyd Johnson #585 and Addie Hughey #586). I was born in Montaque, Mi. on the old Pete Anderson farm. We moved to a Sippy farm near Walkerville when I was 1 year old. We moved again when I was 4 years old to a smaller Sippy farm a few miler away. This farm was 360 acres. I was raised like an only child as both my brothers were in World War II. I always had a cat or a dog beside me, as I walked for hours in the woods & fields viewing Gods beauty. I loved the flowers & would wade the muddy fields each spring to see if they were out yet. I had a cat called Grey, she would hide in my doll buggy about time for her to have kittens. Mom always got Grey outside before the kittens were born. The sides of the buggy finally broke out from that cat. She would come to the house & meow until I followed her and she would show me where the babies were. Then if I'd pet her & didn't bother the kittens to much she would leave them there. If I played with them too much she would hide them again & punish me for a few days, then again she would take me to them. I am 5ft. 8in. & never weighed 100 lbs. until I was about 18 years old. Wish I could say that now but at about 50 years old I got plump (enough said). I was born with medium brown hair I brown eyes. Now I have a lot of white in my hair. I hope it will be as beautiful as my mom's when it gets white. Growing up on a farm was great, we didn't have a lot of material things but the love & openness to be free to walk in the woods without fear gives me memories I'11 never forget. My clothes were mostly 2nd hand or sewn in love by mom out of a $.25 printed chicken feed bag & sewn on my grandmother's treadle sewing machine. I got a new pair shoes when school started & they lasted the year. Mom always made re wear those ugly Lt. brown long stocking. Marshall & I talk about those long socks & laugh about the garter belts mom made us but it kept us warm. For any young person reading this "that was the good old days" you hear about! See kids you have it good! I went to Walkerville High School & graduated in 1957. I worked in restaurants in Muskegon, Grand Rapids, Hart & Walkerville. I've worked in factories also. I have 2 wonderful sons & 3 great stepdaughters I raised for most of their lives. I have 6 Grandchildren. I live in Wyoming, MI. with my loving husband, Dave. We attend Community Bible Church in Grandville, Mi. Iva Janet Bayle Winkler Johnson
