John Theodore Suit and Virginia Ann McCormac were married at her home in Lynn
County,.(Mound City) Kansae, April 25, 1878. They moved to his farm in Wilson
County, near Fredonia, where the threo oldest children were born. They sold the
farm in the spring of 1885. Levi McCormao and J.T.Sult bought 150 head of cattle
and prepared to go west.
In April they were read to start from the home of A.J.MoCormac, with Ann drives
ing the team of mules. While they were loading, the teem became frightened and rare,
injuring Ann so that it was impossible for her to make the trip. J.T. and Levi
started on, leaving the family with her parents. They went as far as Kingman County.
where his sister, firs. James Reece lived.
In July twins were born. J.T. came back in the late summer and moved the fam-
ily to Kingman County, where Laura May died, Nov. 25, age 4 months. The next spring
the family, with Theodore Sult, a nephew of J.T. started west again, with Ann driv»
ing the mules, J.T. the ox team and Levi and Theodore the cattle. That summer t::,7

the cattle, (Topsy became a family institution; all the children and several grand-
children learned to ride on her. She finally died of old age about 1911). They
spent that winter in Wyoming, near Bushnell Creek, about 65 miles from Cheyenne.
There was good open range here, and they bought hay for the cattle during the worst
of the winter.
The next winter, 1887, they spent in the south-east corner of Idaho, near Benn-
ington. It was necessary to have the cattle fed, so they parceled them out by 10's
or 20is. Ann and the children went on to Ironside, Oregon, where another sister of
J.T.Sult, Mrs. George Duncan, lived. She.and her husband had large land holdings
on the Malheur River. They had originally intended to settle there, but Levi and
J.T. went on a fishing trip to bong Valley, Idaho, and wore so favorably impressed
with the wild hay and the general appearanoe of the country that they decided to go
there instead.

On June 10, 1888, they arrived in Long Valley and camped near the falls on the
Payette River, which later became the town of Crawford. Later that summer they too}
a premption on 160 acres on Boulder Creek, 11 miles northeast of Donnelly. Levi
took one adjoining it. (1942. It is now known as the Bob Wallaoe Place.) They
did not put up much hay that summer, and the printer of 1888-89 was a very hard one.
They loot many cattle. There George Franklin was born, June 28, 1892.
In 1892 or 1893, J.T. bought Jack Jasper's pre-emption and filed a homestead
claim on 160 acres on Gold Fork. Edd Cole was one of the witnesses when they pr•Jv-
ed up on it. J.T. went in with Billy Ball and a Mr. Bradley in a sawmill, and
built a dam on the river, "Suit's Mill" became a fishing and picnic center for all
the country around. More of the family living came frbm the sawmill than from the
farm,. Crops were planted and harvested, but largely left to themselves in the mean.,
time; while the men were busy getting out logs in winter and sawing them up in sum.
mer, They also had a grist mill and people dome from miles around, bringing their
wheat to ba ground into graham which was the mainstay of many of the families in
the valley. Elsie Ella was born there on October 12, 1899.
In 1912 or 1913, when the Boise Payette Lumber Company started to locate in the
valley, J.T. and Ann filed on 160 acres of land each as timber claims. About 1898
they bought the Worley Place, 41 miles south, down the valley.
The family living was also helped along by carrying the mails into that pioneer
country. In 1894, Charley, age 16, began carrying the mail from Van Wyck to old
Salmon Meadows. He drove for two years for someone else, then J.T. took the con-
tract.to carry mail from Van Wyck to Roseberry. .Later the lino from Roseberry to
Meadows was cut off. (Was not the contract from Van Wyck to Meadows?) In the sum-
mer of 1901, Dora drove from Roseberry to Van Wyck.
In 1902, the summer of the Thunder Mountain gold rush, J.T. took a four-year
oontract to carry the mails from Ola (Squaw Creek) to Van Wyck. Charley had the
run from 0la to Smith's Ferry and Laurence, from Smith's Ferry to Van Wyck.
Ann died Dec. 2, 1909, of Bright's disease at the home of her sister. -in-law,
Mrs. Cass Wisdom (Emily A. Sult) in Weise:, Idaho. J.T. continued to live on the
farm, most of the time alone, until his death of heart failure on Sept. 22, 1931.
They are buried in the Holmes Cemetery, not far from the home.
