(Memories of Winnie Faye Beins 1903-1999) Sarah came to live in IA with an uncle after both parents had died in the early seventies. In 1876, she moved to NE and lived with another uncle. In the fall of 1877, William & Sarah moved to Furnas County in a covered wagon and set up housekeepng in a dugout. In her own handwriting were found these words: "I have always tried to live the life of a Christian." Mrs. Vining was here during the big Indian scare of 1878 when all the neighbors gathered at the home of Lennie & Dan Gapin on the Sappy. Among us all she ranked always as a woman of sympathy, a kind neighbor, a devoted mother and a true mould in bravely meeting the stern requirements and often the disappontments of life. (Oibt of Mrs. W. H. Vining, The Beaver Valley Tribune 2/1943) William came to Furnas Co., Nebraska in 1873. He took a homestead on Sappa Creek and this place was his home until the time of his death. In February 1877, he married at Fremont, NE to Sarah Ridenour. For children were born to them. The oldest and the youngest died in infancy, but two daughters and the wife are left to mourn. The daughters are Mrs. Traxler and Mrs. McCarty, both of Furnas Co. The deceased was a member of the Odd Fellows Lodge at Beaver City, and was a man highly esteemed by his fellow citizens.

Section on Townsend Township, Huron County, Ohio. Under "Religious": "The Baptist Church was organized in Penfield, New York, in 1816, and consisted of five members, all of whom removed to this township (Townsend) the following year. It was originally called "The Peace Baptist Church", one of the articles of its constitution condemning "all carnal wars and fighting, and the use of carnal weapons, in self defence, as unwarranted by Scripture." The members, on removing to this township, kept up their organization, the earliest meetings being held at their respective dwellings. The first settled pastor was Elder R. W. VINING who began his labors in 1837. A church building was erected at the center, in 1850, costing about five hundred dollars.

Jared & Salmon Vining were Pioneer of District (Article in Canadian Baptist in 1913) The Vining Cemetery & the Vining Baptist Church, located on the corner of Concession 5 and the Thorndale side road, received the name from the Vining family who settled in the district in 1822, and who were prominently associated with the early life of the Baptist Church in Western Ontario. The first interment made on the Vining Cemetery was that of Joseph Vining, son of pioneer Elder Salmon Vining who died March 1855 at the age of 16 years and six months, a victim of Typhoid Fever, which was prevalent in the district at that time. The Vining brothers, Jared & Salmon with their wives, who were the daughters of Captain Bodwell, came to West Nissouri in 1822. They were the sons of Ebenezer Vining, a Baptist minister who had charges in the states of New York & Massachusetts and were descendants of two brothers who in the early part of the 17th century left Wincanton, Somersetshire, England and sailed for America.

Jared & Salmon Vining worked side by side in hewing out homes for themselves in West Nissouri and in promoting the welfare of the community. Jared Vining was a tall and commanding in appearance and attracted the attention of all with whom he came in contact. Salmon Vining was a member of the West Nissouri Twp. Council and in this capacity devoted much of his time and effort to the building of good roads throughout the Twp., for which he received no remuneration. He did not neglect his home and on his farm was a small nursery where fruit trees were grown from seed.

Salmon Vining also did missionary work in many parts of Western Ontario, traveling hundreds of miles on horseback. Traveling missionaries sent out by the American Missionary Society held meetings in the Vining neighborhood. Elders Crandall and French, who recognized the oratorical ability of Salmon Vining and also his wide knowledge of the scriptures, urged him to enter the ministry. A service was later held in a barn on the Vining farm and Salmon Vining was ordained as an Elder. He had four appointments in the East and West Nissouri Twps. He organized the West Nissouri Chapel 74 years ago. Elder Vining performed marriage ceremonies in the Counties of Lambton, Middlesex, Oxford, and Perth. A book in which all the marriages solimnized by the Rev. Salmon Vining from 1833 - 1844 are recorded, is the possession of a granddaughter of the pioneer.

In this book of nearly a century ago are found records of scores of marriages in tghe pioneer settlements. Another valuable book owned by this pioneer Baptist clergyman, and now in the possession of a relative is a large commentary on the New Testament, edited by Thomas Scott, D.D. and published in 1818 by William Woodward in Philadelphia. In this book are recorded the birthdates of the early settlers.

Rev. Salmon Vining, who was born on Sept. 17, 1791 died in 1879. Jared Vining, brother of Rev. Salmon Vining, who was born in 1789 and died in 1858, was a deacon in the Baptist Church and assisted in the establishment of the Vining Baptist Church in West Nissouri Twp. Prior to the errection of the Baptist Church, services were held in the log schoolhouse on the corner. A singing school was also conducted in this building and the Vining brothers were ever ready to promote the educational interest of the community.

Rev. Andrew J. Vining, formerly of London and prominent clergyman of the Baptist Church, was the grandson of the pioneer missionary Rev. Salmon Vining. (The West Nissouri Baptist Church has long disappeared)

Another article: THE VINING FAMILY
Among the early settlers of Nissouri were the Vinings - two brothers, Jared and Zalmon. These two brothers, like the Scatcherds, settled on adjoining farms. They came from New York State, U. S. Zalmon was a soldier in the war of 1812 and for his services in that war, drew from the United States Government lands, located in Michigan, not many years ago. Notwithstanding this soon after the war they preferred settling in Canada to their own country. They were sons of a Baptist minister. They both married sisters of the late Captain Bodwell, of Dereham. Both they and their wives were of more than ordinary talents. A few years after their settling in Nissouri two missionaries, Elders Maybee and French, were sent to labor in Nissouri by the Christian ladies of the Baptist church in Oxford, who, having no money, paid them with coats, socks, and other home-made clothing. The labors of these missionaries were not vain for the word was blessed and many were awakened and converted and among the converts were Vinings. Though the Christian ladies and the missionaries are long since gone the way of all the earth, yet "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord for they rest from their labors and their works do follow them." A Baptist church was formed in the Vining neighborhood and these brothers were leading spirits in it. The elder brother Jared became the Deacon and Zalmon soon became the minister; he was of more than ordinary talent for preaching. This church has had its difficulties like all other churches. Though these brothers have passed away to their reward, there still remains a Baptist congregation in that locality with a fine brick church; many of the children and grandchildren of the two Vining brothers are members of it. -- Hal Gordon Brown (Editor and Publisher) 19 Terrace St., Keene, NH 03431-3210
