Carl George Braun

Carl's family web site: http://www.carlbraun.com/

He ran for Township Committee last year (he won):
http://www.wallnj.com/docs/Election-2005/generalelection2005.htm

This June, he ran in the primary for county commissioner (he placed second among the Republican candidates.)
http://www.wallnj.com/docs/Election-2006/primaryelection06-1.htm

Here’s a picture of the Republican candidates (upper right):

There’s another Carl G. Braun in Woodbury, CT. Wonder if Anthony knows him?

 

John A. Cavallo

Some other guy’s famous for having this name...and not in a good way. Check this out (the group photo at the bottom):
http://www.ganglandnews.com/column191.htm

Google yields many hits (you should pardon the expression) for that same guy. There is also a famous John A. Cavallo (an anthropologist and prolific author) but few hits that seem to be our John.

Peter earlier was a biblical scholar. This abstract is free (you have to pay for the journal article itself):
http://muse.jhu.edu/cgi-bin/access.cgi?uri=/journals/journal_of_early_christian_studies/v008/8.1gorday.html

Here’s another abstract:

He is cited in works of other scholars:
http://www.vanderbilt.edu/AnS/religious_studies/contentv2.htm

This book (the second one, blue cover) contains an essay by Peter, based (possibly) on his doctoral dissertation:
http://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/cms_content?page=588719&sp=1018&event=1018%7C21742%7C1018

Edward Groth III

Here is a report Ned wrote for the Mercury Policy Project, on exposure to mercury vapor from broken fluorescent light bulbs: http://mpp.cclearn.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/final_shedding_light_all.pdf

A report he wrote on mercury in fish:
http://www.oceana.org/fileadmin/oceana/uploads/mercury/Final_Report_12-5.pdf

Work he led at CU on pesticides in foods—a multi-year project with its own web site:
http://www.ecologic-ipm.net/findings_CU.html#reports

Examples of the extensive publicity generated by that pesticide project:
http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?sec=health&res=9B03E6DE173DF93AA25751C0A96F958260
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/national/pesticides.htm

An analysis Ned did with 3 colleagues showed empirically (it hadn’t been done before) that organic foods really do have fewer and lower pesticide residues than conventionally grown foods. This is a NY Times article; the study itself appeared in a peer-reviewed journal that charges for a copy.
http://www.mindfully.org/Food/Organic-Less-Pesticide7may02.txt

A statement he made (for CU) at an FDA hearing on genetically modified foods:
http://www.biotech-info.net/Groth_Comments.pdf#search=%22Edward%20Groth%22

Bio posted on the web site of an infant health & safety information group for whom he wrote a couple of short pieces:
http://www.babycenter.com/expert/p74.html

One of the pieces he wrote for them:
http://www.babycenter.com/expert/baby/babyfeeding/11803.html

His doctoral dissertation (in 1973) analyzed the fluoridation controversy, which lives on; current combatants have found his old work and plastered it all over the web: http://www.fluoridealert.org/groth-1975.htm
http://www.fluoridedebate.com/history.html
http://www.healthy.net/scr/news.asp?Id=8010

This article (published in a journal in 2001) analyzed the current debate over genetically modified foods by comparing it with historical debates over fluoridation, nuclear power and pesticides.
http://www.consumersunion.org/food/debate/bio.htm

Some international work, on global food safety (for Consumers International):

George John Hamwi

This appears to be an obituary for his father:
http://www.worldcatlibraries.org/wcpa/ow/41502d40c6854b41.html

This, on the other hand, is our guy....
http://www.golftec.com/newsletter/nc.html

Ditto: making news by playing golf (he shot a 65!) About halfway down:
http://archives.thepilot.com/December2003/12-03-03/120303Fairway.html

John’s (other) fame comes from owning the Aspen restaurant Little Annie’s (see “Capturing the Flags,” most of the way down):
http://www.advenquest.com/AMS-article.storyid-231.htm

John quoted about the politics of housing, in Aspen and Cape Cod (about 40% down):

David N. Hoon

Did you know that the British Defense Minister is named David Hoon? Lotsa hits, not our guy. (Also a CA cancer researcher, a soccer coach, a photographer....)

But this one is our Dave—his 15 seconds of fame (one sound bite), featured as “a consumer” in an NBC network news medical story about air fresheners:

Michael G. Laskin

A scrap metal company he owned was sued (7 years ago) by NY attorney general Elliot Spitzer, for polluting the Hudson River:
http://www.oag.state.ny.us/press/1999/sep/sep23a_99.html

The company, a Superfund site, appears to belong now to CH Energy Corp.; Mike may have sold it to get out from under the problems (see page 98 of annual report):

Charles Noyes Loveland III

Charles N. Loveland (Jack’s grandfather?) was mayor of Wilkesbarre, PA from 1935-37. He’s mentioned in here several times but you have to dig for it:
http://www.lowerluzernecounty.com/articles/almanacs/wilkes-barre-almanac-wilkes-barre-in-1940.htm

The grandfather’s marriage (June 7, 1900):

http://sec.edgar-online.com/1994/05/17/00/0000950152-94-000549/Section5.asp

This also sounds like our Gib: He placed 584th (but 79th for his gender/age class) in a 10K race in Youngstown in 1995:

Francis B. Phillips

A summary of a story Frank wrote:
http://www.boston.com/news/globe/

A story about the Globe’s negative coverage of John Kerry; Frank is mentioned in passing (he co-wrote one negative story):
http://www.slate.com/id/2094235/

Frank is quoted (about halfway down), identified as their (Mass) Capitol Bureau Chief  and “one of the Globe’s most respected reporters”:

Frank contributed to a Harvard prize for political journalism:
http://www.ksg.harvard.edu/presspol/news_events/nyhan_prize.htm

Frank and Jenny made a major gift to the Perkins School for the Blind. Their son is named for Maxwell Perkins – Hemingway’s editor, Jenny may be a descendant. Wonder what the connection is here: http://www.perkins.org/downloads/2005_annual_report.pdf#search=%22%22Francis%20B.%20Phillips%22%22

Thomas J. Reichman

It is not clear if this successful filmmaker—who was 23 years old in 1968 (as most of us were) according to this review and who seems to have vanished from the scene after 1972—is our classmate or not, but it may well be: http://movies2.nytimes.com/mem/movies/review.html?_r=1&title1=Mingus%3A%20Charlie%20Mingus%20(Movie)&title2=&reviewer=VINCENT%20CANBY&pdate=19680517&v_id=&oref=slogin

Good description of his 1966 movie about Charlie Mingus:

A couple of other movies he made (one about Marjoe Gortner, in 1972):

This is pretty incredible: A photo of The Boss, in China, in 1916, as a Princeton student (see “Not dressed to the nines,” 10th slide in the show):
http://www.princeton.edu/~pia/flash/temp.swf

The boss is mentioned (again as a Princeton student) in the last paragraph here:

http://web.library.uiuc.edu/ahx/alasfa/9901018a.pdf#search=%22%22C%20Lambert%20Heyniger%22%22

This is his son, Nick, I believe (signer No. 72):

Nick, a retired diplomat and former Darrow trustee, lives in Woodstock, VT and has supported this organization:

John Forsyth Joline III (Jean Stebbins Joline)

Jean’s obituary and John’s remarriage, on the Hultgren web site cited above:
http://www.hultgren.org/darrow/faculty.htm

John won a letter in sprint (150-lb) football at Princeton in 1946. Note the list of coaches on the first page (Harry Mahnken, 1936-42, and see paragraph at bottom of page):
http://graphics.fansonly.com/photos/schools/prin/sports/m-sprintfb/auto_pdf/SFB_RB.pdf#search=%22%22John%20F%20Joline%22%22

John was also a 2nd-team all-conference end on his high school football team (1942):
http://www.tedsilary.com/FBcoachallint1936-69.htm

In this letter to the PAW (June 7, 2002), we learn that John also played varsity baseball at Princeton, and that to his classmates, he is known as “Moose:”
http://www.princeton.edu/~paw/web_exclusives/more/more_letters/letters_baseball.html

This genealogical web site mentions John’s grandfather and one of his great-grandfathers. Note that the latter went to Princeton, too (Class of 1827):
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~skillman/b8086.htm

Genealogical info about another great-grandfather and great-great-grandfather:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~skillman/b8086.htm#P8086

The great-great-grandfather apparently owned slaves, back in 1806, in Princeton:
http://www.princeton.lib.nj.us/history/1892death.html

This site includes and article from Rivington’s New York Gazetteer, October 12, 1775, reporting on the commencement on September 28 that year at the College of New Jersey (as Princeton was then known). One of the graduates was John Joline, most probably that same great-great-grandfather (see items 205-206, about 1/5 of the way down) :
http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/nj/statewide/newspapers/1775news6.txt
 
John’s father, JFJ Jr., also went to Princeton (1907) and is the author of an article in this 1941 journal about Princeton library collections (see page 105):
http://libweb5.princeton.edu/visual_materials/pulc/pulc_v_2_n_3.pdf

John’s father gave a collection of historical documents to Princeton during the 1936-37 academic year; he gave another gift in 1940. Note that the information on the first gift mentions John’s great-great-grandfather, John Forsythe, Princeton Class of 1799:
http://infoshare1.princeton.edu/rbsc2/libraryhistory/1810_to_1987_Acquisitions.html

Letter from John, about his father, published here:
http://www.hirschwrites.com/comments.html

There is a Joline Hall on the Princeton campus:

http://web.princeton.edu/sites/mathey/PhotoAlbum/pages/13-JolineHall_jpg.htm
http://www.brianrose.com/portfolio/princeton/joline.htm

This campus history says it was completed in 1933 and was the last of Princeton’s Gothic dormitories: http://etcweb.princeton.edu/Campus/chap7.html

But the person it is named after is not one of our John’s direct ancestors (probably some kind of cousin, though):

Harry Arthur Mahnken

Harry coached the 150-lb football team at Princeton from 1936-42. See paragraph at bottom of page. John Joline played on the team a few years later (see Joline links):
http://graphics.fansonly.com/photos/schools/prin/sports/m-sprintfb/auto_pdf/SFB_RB.pdf#search=%22%22John%20F%20Joline%22%22

Harry also coached the varsity for one year, during WWII; he didn’t do so well:

Thomas Guthrie Speers

An obituary, from the New York Times, May 11, 1984:
http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=940DE5DC1E38F932A25756C0A962948260

These excerpts from the history of the First Presbyterian Church of NY include some biographical info about Dr. Speers (see below 2nd photo):
http://www.fpcnyc.org/merger.html

A 1935 article from Time magazine, with more biography of Dr. Speers and his family:
http://jcgi.pathfinder.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,847548,00.html

The third paragraph here is about Dr. Speers. We learn that he was a track star (hammer throw) at Princeton, and more biographical details:
http://www.hydebay.net/13%20Pickett.html

A bit of the flavor of a preacher’s role in Baltimore in the 1930s:  http://www.mdarchives.state.md.us/megafile/msa/speccol/sc2900/sc2908/000001/000150/html/am150--94.html

Dr. Speers is listed here among the correspondents of Edmund Bigelow Chafee. He is in rather distinguished company:
http://www-distance.syr.edu/ebc.html

He got an honorary degree from Princeton (in 1949). See also 1966 (Pete Conrad), 1970 (Bob Dylan), etc—i.e., more distinguished company:

In addition to being a Wall Street financier, her father was Nixon’s ambassador to Switzerland; this web site has links to other biographical information: http://www.namebase.org/main4/Shelby-Cullom-Davis.html

Diana set up this fellowship program at her alma mater, Wheaton:
