Larcena was kidnapped by Indians in Madera Canyon in the Santa Rita Mountains, south of Tucson, was
repeatedly speared, knocked in the head, thrown over a cliff and left for dead. However, she survived 16 days in the
mountains alone, severly injured, most of her clothes taken by the Indians and only had to eat what wild food she
might find. She made it back to the camp from which she was abducted and recovered and lived to a ripe old age.
Her complete story is recorded in the Arizona Historical Society in Tucson. This abduction took place about March
of 1860. She had one child by Page, born some six months after he was killed by the Apaches (1861), and 2
children by Scott.

Transcript of letter from M. D. Pennington (Margaret Dennison), Georgetown Texas, February 21, 1872, to
William Fisher Scott and Larcena Ann Pennington Scott (Tucson, A. T.). Transcript by Virginia Culin Roberts,
Aug. 5, 1979, Tucson. Original in Arizona Historical Society, Forbee Collection, Box 3.

Georgetown Texas
February 21, 1872
Dear Brother and Sister

With pleasure we respond to your ever welcome letter which we received a few days since and was glad
to learn you were all well but was sorry to learn the baby had been sick, and if that nurs girl is so careless again
give her a shaking up and learn her to be careful.

Larsena you have our ready pardon for not writing sooner since you have such a good excuse, but we
had come to the conclusion that you did not care about writing, and if it was not for Fisher we would not hear from
you at all, but if you don't write oftener we will think you do not care about hearing from us often Fisher I think
you ought to make her go out a visiting once in awhile whether she wanted to go or not, she should not make such
an old woman of her self, but I know how she is she don't want to go but if I were there I would make her go, for it
enlivens a person. I wish Mary Anne had sent her letter, and tell her to send all she writes if they are full of
blunders we will excuse them all. Tell my little nephew if I was there I would cover him with kisses and his aunt
Bargy would take him out a bug hunting and kill evry one we could, O! I know he is a beauty with his large blue
eyes and tapering fingers, give him a dozen hugs and kisses for us all, and when you brink him to see us, him and
his aunt Bargy will have a bug hunt. There are plenty back here and we can kill quite a number.

We are all well and a lone as usual, Jack and Will have not been home for over a month, the last we
heard from them they were going to San Antonia with frieght. We are looking for them, now, we are get along as
well as could be expected considering everthing

We spent Christmas times fine. We went to one party after Christmas and another a new years, night,
but we are all very slow about getting married neither one of us are engage, efh, I know you will think we are to
slow.

The last letter we received from Abr he said he and the children were well , he has not been down since last
August, although I have written him repeatly last fall that I thought it was necessary for him to come to see Cas for
she was worrying all the time about him and the children, when he would answer them he would have some excuse
about his work and his last letter he said he would have been up to seen us if had not been so busy, and said he
would rent land down there another year, and he also written that the best of doctors said Cas would never be right
any more in her mind, but that he did not know himself, but what is the use to write about him, he does not believe
Cas will ever get well and he does not want to do aneything for her he lives 25 or 30 miles from here.

I did think Cas would get as bad as ever if he did not come, for he said the Clairievoyant said she must not be
crossed but treated very kind. But Thank God, she is not that bad and I hope she may not be, but she is not so near
herself as she was, last fall.

But I still hope she will get well yet. We have had a very cold winter The northers whistle pretty free, Did Mary
Ann ever receive a letter from Meany and Joey. they written her while we resided in Austin.

you say Mrs Bennet went to Silver Sity, wher is that?

Sonny Brown did send the letter or that is the man did bring it down, but it to late to grieve after spilt milk, excuse
the vulgar escpression I should have said after by gones, And we are delighted to know Mrs Grant Oury inquiered
about us, you know she use to hold her head so high.

Give our kind regards to our friends

I will have to stop Joey is ready to start to the office.

A heap of kisses to Fisher and Mary and tell them to write how much they weigh next time.

I think you and Willy done very well you were a little lighter than I escpected, give the baby lots of kisses for us,
and Fisher you give her a dozen apiee for us, of course that will be to many to gi (to many to gi has benn scratched
out. It is followed by what may be a letter S and another symbol, perhaps a flourish.)

Accept our love and kind wishes

From your to sing (to sing scratched out)

affectionately sister
M. D. Pennington.

(One might speculate that the closing above started out to be " From your two single sisters," but Margaret thought
better of that and scratched it out.) VCR.

The handwriting shows that this letter was written in two almost equal parts by two different people. Spelling,
capitalization and punctuation are transcribed per original.

The names "Abr" and "children" mentioned were my great-granddad Abner Jefferson "Ab" Nichols and his and
Caroline's children, Jeff (who became an outlaw), Martha Jane (Aunt Jannie who married John Yeoman), Phebe
(apparently died as a youth) and the twins (who were left in Texas and Abner could not find again). WBN

Mrs. Ruth Lesesne,
3214 Nancy Gale Drive,
Austin, Texas 78735 Re: Carolyn Nichols

Dear Mrs. Lesesne

This is to inform you after you came by the office the other day, one of our ladies researched further and did find
that Mrs. Nichols had been admitted to this hospital at one time. However, the information is very limited to only a
few lines in a ledger.

Mrs. Nichols was admitted to this hospital January 25, 1877 from Williamson County, Texas at the age of 38. She
was a native of Tennessee and was married to a farmer, but separated at the time of admission. Diagnosis was
given as Acute Mania and the cause being due to childbirth.

I am sorry that no other information is available, however, I thought you might be interested in knowing this.


Sincerely,


Anita I. Sharp
Medical Records Librarian

(5) Shirley Brueggeman ---- Abner died of eating wild poisonous greens (may have been killed by his son Ransom
or his mother in law Mrs. Shoemaker).
Abner was in 1850 census of Izard co. AR Then left soon after --- he joined a freighting company and drove
freight wagons with oxen from MO River to the Patagonia Mines in Arizona Territory near Tuscon -- having met
the Pennington family there, he and Jack Pennington drove freight over much of AZ and TX. In about 1859 Abner
went on to Calif. in search of gold --- he returned to AZ about 1862 and married Caroline Pennington --- who was
a widow --- then because of all the trouble with the Indians they moved to Texas. Between 1864 and 1867 Abner
farmed in Bell co. TX --- Caroline became ill and moved into Georgetown with her sisters. Abner left Bell co.
sometime in 1873, when last paid land tax. In 1880 Abner was in census of Custer Co. CO in Rosita. Somewhere
he remarried (Bankston-- she and the twin girls died of measles) and had twin girls and Elijah Daniel (my
grandfather). When he left TX he left behind a set of twins (from Pennington) with either a neighbor or relatives
and after he and Jeff and Janie came to Colorado he returned to Texas for the babies and could never find them.
Abner settled 4 miles south of Rosita, Colorado. He had 150 head of range cows, 20 milk cows and 15 horses.
After Abner and Mamie were married, (he was 47 and she was 12 years and 9 months old) her father, Hiram
Shoemaker moved his large family into a log house on the Nichols ranch. In 1885 Abner and Hiram Shoemaker
and several members of their families moved to Carbondale, CO. (more of this family and their move over the
mountains can be read in the book "Pioneers of the Roaring Fork" by Len Shoemaker --- brother of Mamie) also
the story of the Bankstons can be read in "Where Eagles Winter" Wilma Crisp Bankston. Much has been written
on the Pennington family, as they were the first white family to settle in Arizona Territory.
Jeff the oldest son of Abner, it is said joined an outlaw gang (Butch Cassidy early gang) and may have been
hung for stealing horses. Uncle Elmer Nichols says he remembers his father, Elijah Daniel, telling how Jeff had
joined the outlaw gang and they had their hidout in Brown's Park (NW corner of Colorado) and how Jeff came to
New Castle to visit, wearing a gun on each hip and that Jeff could shoot several shots at a tin can and keep the can
in the air that way. Jeff reportedly asked his borther, Dan, to join him, saying -- "it was easier than working for a
living." Jeff may have been hung in Wyo. and could be buried at Baggs, WY.
" I believe Abner made several trips with the freighting co. back to MO/AK and either at the time the Civel
War fighting came to AK or when his mother was killed, he left again for Arizona --- hiding in the daytime and
traveling at night". (as Aunt Pearl remembers it told to her)

(6) Walt Nichols "Abner is buried in the Old Weaver Cem. Carbondale, Colorado. There is an old board marker
(no writing) about 20 feet from Hiram Shoemaker's stone. I beleve this is where Abner is buried or else real close
to the spot. Uncle Elmer agrees and this also agrees with what Aunt Pearl remembers. In 1955 I was with dad
when we went to Carbondale to buy a new hay rake from the Case dealer (we were stacking hay for Leo Light at
Snowmass at the time) and he told me his granddad and other family members were buried there. He did not take
me to the cem.... now I wish he had. The city of Carbondale has given me permission to place a stone marker there
and I hope to get it set before winter sets in -- 1998".

       
Children of CAROLINE PENNINGTON and ABNER NICHOLS are:

(2) Walt Nichols: "Aunt Janie had one finger cut off as child by her brother Jeff. (she was cleaning the chips out
of the cut, while Jeff was chopping a log) She had red hair.
When 1st. Husband (John) was killed, (by a horse) she rode same horse with 2 children into town (35 miles) for
help--- horse died from being rode so hard.
I remember Aunt Janie when I was a child. She was our favorite Aunt. She and Uncle Fred (3rd husband)
lived in New Castle, Colorado. When Fred died, she moved to Grand Junction, Colorado to be near her son
Alvie. We lived at Fruita (about 10 miles away) so we saw Aunt Janie often. She gave me a "four horse whip"
which had been her 2nd husband's (Walt). (I was named for Uncle Walt.)"
Aunt Janie is buried in the Rosebud Cem. , Glenwood Springs, Colorado ---- Block 137, Lot 7 --- between Walt
Gleason and Fred Humphreys.... no marker 1998... I hope to get a stone marker for her.

(2) Dad (Bryan Nichols) said: John was killed when a horse that he was leading to water reared up and struck
him in back of the head with front feet. He was buried in meadow on ranch about 35 miles from Glenwood
Springs, Colorado.
Uncle Elmer Nichols said John is buried on a little rock point over looking the meadow. He said there was a
pole fence around the grave when his dad (Dan Nichols) showed it to him (pro. in the 1920's). He said when
John was killed, Aunt Janie buried him in a snow bank, then rode the horse 35 miles for help.

WBN - I had he died in 1886.

(2) FamilySearch.com (LDS) submitter Carol Heaton - Says he died April 30, 1888..... this could very well be
right.
