Notes for JACOB RIETH:

http://www.accessgenealogy.com/scripts/data/database.cgi?file=Data&report=SingleArticle&ArticleID=0020867

History of the Pacific Northwest, Oregon and Washington, 1889

JACOB REITH. - Mr. Reith, one of the most valuable citizens of Umatilla county, passed through some of the severest hardships on record in coming to our state.

He is a native of France, having been born in Alsace in 1836. In 1850 he crossed the ocean with his father's family, residing for a time in New York State, and until 1860 in Minnesota. In that year, with his brother Joseph, he set out across the plains for Oregon. That was the time of the fierce Snake Indian outbreak; and at Bruno creek the immigrants were attacked at daylight on the 6th of September. They made a brave fight until the evening of the seventh, losing at the first onslaught four men; and three more fell before the battle was over. It became necessary to abandon the wagons; and thus, leaving their stores and stock in the hands of the Indians, they were molested no more. It was, however, a frightful march to the Umatilla. That was two hundred miles away; and the journey thither must be performed on foot. The forty-four emigrants, men, women and children, separated into little squads; and such was the horror of hunger that befell some of those little parties that a number of those who survived fed upon the flesh of those who perished; and only twelve came forth alive from the wilderness. These were Joseph and Jacob Reith; James Myers, his wife, one boy and four girls; Miss Emily Trimble; Mrs. Chase; a Mr. Judson, and a discharged soldier, and two others, perhaps children. The Reiths came wholly by themselves and reached the agency. The rest were rescued by Captain Dent and Lieutenant Reno, with three companies. Some of the victims were found in a cave on the Snake river.

After recovering from that awful experience, Mr. Reith went to the mines at Oro Fino and at Auburn, and within three years had money. Coming back to a point on Birch creek near Pendleton, he located a ranch and became one of the first in that section to introduce sheep. In 1878, during the raid of the Bannacks, he suffered the loss of some three thousand of his animals. His brother, his partner, narrowly escaped being overtaken, and dissuaded him from venturing out to do what he could to save the flocks. In 1881 he turned his attention chiefly to wheat-raising, having now half a section in cultivation. He obtained twenty-five bushels of this grain to the acre, and, in such a season as was the last, when, for ninety days after sowing, there was not a drop of rain and the showers fell only after the wheat had bloomed, the yield was but little slackened.

Mr. Reith was married in 1879 to Miss Magdalen Mark, daughter of a pioneer of 1873. They have a pleasant home with the frontier good cheer and refinement, and a family.

*************

Rieth

Rieth started as a station for UPR when the railroad established new shops and terminals west of Pendleton. A post office was established there as well. Rieth was named for the pioneer family who lived there. The post office was closed in 1971 and the repair yard was moved to Hinkle.

THE FISK TRAIN, 1863

Rieth, Eugene

***********

Saint Francis Cemetery, Harrington, Lincoln County, Washington

http://www.rootsweb.com/%7Ewalincol/obitsstfranr.htm

Rieth, Eugene

Eugene Rieth, aged 80, died at his home in Harrington, July 4, 1922, at 8 PM following a stroke of some ten days ago. He was conscious until the last and recognized his friends and relatives but was unable to talk. Mr. Rieth has lived an eventful life and has had an important part in the making of the history of our Union and also in the "Winning of the West." Born in Alsace-Lorraine, France, Christmas Eve, 1841 of French parents, he moved with his parents and brothers and sisters to the new world in 1849. The family landed in NY and after living there some time, moved on to MN. When the Civil War broke out, Eugene Rieth, the young immigrant boy, at 18 years of age, like thousands of other foreign born, enlisted and helped preserve the union. He joined Co D of the 4th MN regiment and served until 1863 having participated in several battles among which were Corinth, Iuka and Holley Springs. A few months after discharge Mr. Rieth enlisted as an artilleryman with Capt Fiske on an Indian expedition to Oregon. They were four months on the trip and landed at Walla Walla. The cannon, a howitzer, of which he was the gunner, was at Walla Walla for 30 years and may possibly still be there. On Sept 7, 1875 he married Ellen Short at the Umatilla Indian agency in eastern Oregon and for many years lived in that district. The town of Rieth, a few miles from Pendleton, takes its name from the four Rieth boys who pioneered there. Five children were born to this couple: Clara, Katherine, Emma, Stella and Francis; Katherine and Emma both being dead. Mrs. Rieth, the widow, is much younger than her husband and is well and strong. Other surviving relatives are his brother Louis of Harrington and a sister, Mrs. Julia Curran of Yakima. Twenty years ago the family moved to this region and bought land in Lord’s Valley where they have kept their holdings and where Francis, the only son, now farms. Deceased moved into Harrington four years ago and has led a quiet life ever since, always interested, however, in the doings of the community and in national and world affairs. He was a faithful member of the Catholic church and the funeral was held yesterday in the church where he so often worshipped. Burial took place in the Harrington Cemetery under the auspices of the American Legion. (Citizen-7 July 1922)

Rieth, Ellen D. (Short)

Mrs. Ellen Rieth, who was 103 years old last Oct 12, died about 8:30 Friday morning in the hospital at Hepner, OR, where she had made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Paul O’Meara (Stella Rieth) at Ione, OR, since about 1923. She is the mother of Francis J. Rieth of Harrington and was a frequent visitor to Harrington through the years. Ellen Short was born at Neosha, MO, and crossed the plains to Oregon with her parents in 1860. Sept 7, 1875 she was married to Eugene Rieth at Mission, near Pendleton, OR. They moved to the farm east of town in 1899 where they reared their family. In those early days there was no Catholic church at Harrington and the Rieths drove to Sprague to attend mass. Mr. Rieth died in 1922. On Ellen’s 100th birthday anniversary, she was honored at a reception which was especially significant because of special greetings sent to her by Pope Pius. Last rites were held at St Williams Catholic church at Ione, OR, at 8:30 AM Monday, April 18. Rosary was said Sunday evening. Rev Raymond Beard of Ione officiated. Mr. & Mrs. Oliver Cresswick, morticians in charge, brought the body to Harrington for interment in St Francis cemetery in the family plot beside Mrs. Rieth’s husband. These services were at 2 PM April 18, and Rev Roy Thelen officiated here. Pallbearers were Lyle Bailey, Otto Timm, Edward Gooley, C. A. Gooley, Frank Gateley and Edward Ring. Mrs. Rieth is survived by her daughter and son; 9 grandchildren, 23 great grand-children and 19 great-great-grand-children. Mrs. Paul O’Meara came to Harrington with Mr. & Mrs. Rieth, for the graveside services and will remain several weeks. Among those coming from out of town for the graveside rites were Joe Laughlin, Spokane; Mr. & Mrs. Clive Hodge, Mrs. Eula Parvin, Colfax (cousins of F. J. Rieth); Mr. & Mrs. Robert Harding, Sprague; Mr. & Mrs. Henry Guske and Mr. & Mrs. Elmer Guske (Mary Rieth) and children, Moscow, ID.

Rieth, Thomas J.,

After five years courageously and cheerfully battling for life, the thin strand of which threatened to snap many times, Tom Rieth passed away at sacred Heart hospital in Spokane Wednesday morning (Feb 2, 1938). His mother, brother and sisters did everything in earthly power, financially, and in loving tenderness to bring about recovery for him. Several years ago he was taken by plane east for medical consultation, his sister Regina accompanying him by train. Miss Rieth also rented a residence near the hospital to keep him there that he might be near hospital service, and yet not be confined to the institution. A fine sleeping porch was added to the ranch home, and Tom spent from last March until three months ago at the ranch. During the summer he was able to be about and he visited neighbors, and was in town occasionally. The Citizen office force was happy to have him call. Three months ago he became worse and was again taken to the hospital. His condition was very serious with complications from a cold. Thomas Rieth was born Oct 13, 1903 on the farm southeast of Harrington. He attended school in the country, in Harrington a short time, at Huntington Park, CA, and was enrolled at Gonzaga University 6 months. He was employed as a fruit inspector in Texas, at Neppel and Wenatchee, WA, and as horticultural inspector of King County until 1933 when his health forced him to quit his work. Rosary was said at 8 PM Thursday night at Hennessey & Calloway’s in Spokane, and funeral services are being held this morning at 10 AM, from St Francis church. Rev John J. Coleman will officiate, and burial will be in St Francis Cemetery. Surviving relatives include Tom’s mother, Mrs. Louis Rieth; one brother, E. R. Rieth, both at home on the farm; five sisters, Mrs. George Harding (Mayme), Mrs. E. D. Luther (Georgia) of Los Angeles, Miss Mabel Rieth, Harrington and Miss Regina (Dot) Rieth and Mrs. Ethel Perberton, Spokane. Tom had many friends and all marveled at the courage with which he accepted his lot. (Citizen-4 Feb 1938)

Notes for GERTHA LILLIS LOONEY:

Saint Francis Cemetery, Harrington, Lincoln County, Washington

http://www.rootsweb.com/%7Ewalincol/obitsstfranr.htm

Rieth, Gertha

Although she had been in poor health for some time, Mrs. F. J. Rieth seemed improved at Lincoln hospital in Davenport where she had been hospitalized two weeks, when death came to her about 3:30 PM Thursday, August 26, 1965. Gertha Lillis was born in Perlee, Iowa, June 2, 1884, to Mary Ellen Kiner Looney and James Looney. The family moved to Cheney, WA when Gertha was a young child. She attended the Cheney schools, and was graduated from the Cheney Normal which is now Eastern Washington State College. Miss Looney taught in several schools in the area including Cheney, Mondovi, Chatteroy, Welanda, Mondovi and in the Sedalia school in Lord’s Valley. Sept 6, 1910 Miss Looney became the bride of Francis J Rieth. The couple resided on the Rieth farm southeast of town for several years, then moved into town to send their children to the Harrington school. The Rieth’s golden wedding celebration was a family affair because Mrs. Rieth was not able to participate in a large gathering of friends and kinfolk. Mrs. Rieth was a member of the Harrington Woman’s Club and was active in its work as long as her health was good, as she also was in St Clare Altar Society. She was interested in her husband’s various civic duties that for him included being mayor of Harrington for several terms, and chairman of the Board of Directors of the local schools. Mrs. Rieth was a hospitable lady and frequently had guests in her home. In recent years it has been a "second home" for their grandchildren. Surviving Mrs. Rieth are her husband, and children Louise Smith (Mrs Lester) of Davenport; Lucille Richardson (Mrs. W. L.) of Bellingham; Bernice Harmon (Mrs. Kenneth), Clarkston; Mary Guske (Mrs. Elmer), Moscow, ID; son, Robert Rieth of Harrington, who operates the Rieth farm; 16 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren. A son, John Harold, and a daughter, Dorris, preceded her in death, as did also her parents, sister Minnie, and brothers, William, Earl and Roy Looney. Father John O’Dea, priest at St Francis Catholic church in Harrington, left last week on a trip to Ireland but prior to his departure, he called on Mrs. Rieth at the hospital, and seemingly she was improved. Rosary was recited at the Strate Funeral Home in Davenport, at 7:30 PM Sunday, with Rev William Dugan officiating. Requiem mass was at 10:30 Monday, Aug 30 at St Francis of Assissi church in Harrington. Rev W J Brennan of Cheney (formerly of Harrington) was celebrant. Mrs. Horak of Odessa was organist and the choir from St Josephs church of Odessa sang. Altar boys were William Gooley, William Talkington and John Carstens. Interment was in St Francis cemetery in the family plot. Following the rites ladies of St Clare Altar Society served lunch in the church hall to relatives and friends of the family. The Rieth children and their families were present for the rites, including Mr. & Mrs. Lester Smith & family; Mr. & Mrs. Les Wilcox & children of Harrington and Mr. & Mrs. Jerry Smith of Kennewick (he is in the coast guard); Mr. & Mrs. W. L .Richardson (Lucile) & their families: Mr. & Mrs. Harley Mickels (Carol) and 3 children, and Tom Richardson, (Bill Richardson is in service in Hawaii); Mr. & Mrs. Kenneth Harmon (Bernice) & families: Mrs. Gene Reno (Diane) of Kellogg, ID, and Mrs. Gary Hund (Gloria) of Clarkston; (Mrs. Lee McLaughlin (Gail) of Hope, ID was unable to attend); Mr. & Mrs. Robert Rieth & families, Mr. & Mrs. John Maurer (Roberta) & family of Tyler and Mr. & Mrs. Ron Rieth of Ellensburg, and the Bob Rieth children at home; and Mr. & Mrs. Elmer Guske, Susan, Sally Jo and Jeff, of Moscow, ID. A host of old-time friends came to pay respects to their friend, among whom were Mr. & Mrs. Walter Schmidt, Davenport; Mrs. Howard Jantz, Davenport; Mr. & Mrs. John Tierney, Spokane; Mr. & Mrs. Jim Gorman (Dot Rieth), Spokane; Henry Guske (father of Elmer Guske), and Mr. & Mrs. Alvin Guske, of Moscow, ID; J. C. Michaelsen and Jack Robasse, Spokane; Alfred Franz, Creston (father of Mrs. Ron Rieth); Mr. & Mrs. Otto Jahn, Davenport (parents of Mrs. Robert Rieth); Dr Jack Adams, Yakima; Mrs. Edwin Young, Sprague; Mr. & Mrs. Richard Harding and Mr. & Mrs. Robert Harding, Sprague (the Harding brothers’ mother is Mayme Rieth Harding); W H Richardson, Spokane (father-in-law of Lucile Rieth Richardson); Mr. & Mrs. Edgar Richardson, Spokane; Mr. & Mrs. Joe Laughlin, Spokane; Joe Adams, Portland; and many from the community. Also present were Mr. Rieth’s sister, Mrs. Stella O’Meara of Ione, OR who came Friday to be with her brother; and from Spokane, cousins of Mrs. Rieth’s, the Patterson sisters—Mrs. Edwin Shearer (Cecil) and Mrs. Chester Bro (Carol); also Mrs. Mabel Patterson.
