Reminiscences from The Life of a Pioneer by Ira Ayer I

Written about 1885 by Ira Ayer, I (1802-1889) about some of the more interesting and funny events of his life.  He was born in Haverhill, MA and when he was young his family moved as far west as they could, Eire County, NY, near Buffalo.  I've transcribed the story for easy reading but have included the original drawings.  I've included three formats, HTML (normal webpage), PDF and a scan of each page.


Memorial to Ira Ayer I by LeRoy Oatman

Among other things, Ira Ayer fought in the Civil War.  He was captain of his regiment.  When he died the James Ayer post of the GAR did a memorial to him.  It includes a history of Company A of the 116th Regiment of the New York Volunteer Infantry.  If anyone has a better copy of this I'd love to get a scan of it.

Project Ayer/James

Here are a collection of letters and documents that pertain primarily to Ira Ayer II, his wife Jennie James and her family.  Most are from shortly before until shortly after the Civil War.

James Family

Jane Francis James was said to have crossed the Atlantic 24 four times with her daughter Jennie born on one of those trips. Neither is true but she did cross the Atlantic at least three times.  During a particularly rough trip she wrote Stansas, a poem documenting the account. It was written on the 1855 maiden voyage of the ship The Lillies from St. Johns, New Brunswick to Liverpool.
