2909 | BOOK - HISTORY OF RICE & STEELE COUNTIES VOL I & II 1910. John C. Couper is one of the county's venerable and distinguished citizens, one of those who may well be described as ripe in years and wisdom.

Y., and was educated in the common schools and in Ogdensburg Academy. He taught school several terms, and in 1852 went to Albion, Michigan.

He was married Jan. 1, 1855, to Harriet Johnson, and together they came to Minnesota, locating in Sciota, Dakota county. In 1862 he was sent to the state legislature. During the Civil War he enlisted in Company F, Eighth Minnesota Volunteer Infantry, serving as sergeant and orderly three years until the close of the war, two years in the Indian campaign in Minnesota and the Dakotas, and one year in the South in Tennessee and North Carolina. In 1866 he came to Northfield, where he has since made his home. March 1, 1886, he engaged in the mercantile business in the firm of J. C. and F. J. Couper and continued in business until Nov. 5, 1908. He has now retired from active business and is enjoying the crowning fruits of a well spent life. He has been a justice of the peace many years, has been town supervisor, and for eleven years served with justice and distinction as judge of the municipal court of Northfield. He is a charter member, past commander and the present chaplain of the J. L. Heywood Post, G. A. R., and past junior commander of the Department of Minnesota. He was for several years a trustee of the Congregational society at Northfield. He has also served as president of the Northfield Fair Association. In the family were six children: Dr. Joseph E. Couper, of Blue Earth, Minn., died in 1906; Charles S. lives in Rochester. Fen nimore J. lives in Alberta, Canada. Mrs. Evaline C. Miller lives in Northfield; Prof. George B. Couper lives in Cherryville, Oregon. Miss Hattie lives at home. Judge Couper's parents came from South Shields, England, in 1817, and settled in the wilds of northern New York.

2929 | Born at Trunerup, Villie, Skane, Sweden to Nils Jonsson (1767-1852) and Anna Trulsdotter (1767-1836), Karna Nilsdotter was married to Soren Joransson at Villie, Skane on April 23, 1833. In Skane, they became the parents of -Pehr Sorensson, later known as Peter Yorganson (1835-1917) -Anna Sorensdotter (1838-1838) -Anna Sorensdotter, later known as Anna Sorensson Sanders (1840-1879), twin to Botilda -Botilda Sorensdotter, later known as Botilda Joransson Larsson (1840-1858), twin to Anna -Elna Sorensdotter, later known as Ellen Yorgason Dahl (1842-1912) -Jons Sorensson (1845-1845) -Jons Sorensson, later known as James Yorgason (1847-1917) She and her husband were converted from the state religion, Lutheranism, to the Church of Latter Day Saints by LDS missionaries. They were baptized by the LDS missionary Lars Nils Larsson (1826-1892), who later married their daughter Botilda; after Botilda's early death, Mr. Larsson married Botilda's first cousin Pernella. With her husband and children, and her husband's brother Jons and family, she immigrated to the United States. The family left Sweden in October 1855, traveling first to Denmark, then to England. They left Liverpool, England on December 12, 1855, traveling on the wooden three-masted ship "John J. Boyd". They arrived at New York on February 18, 1856, then traveled to Keokuk, Iowa, where they worked for a year to acquire funding to complete their journey to the Utah Territory. Their names on the New York passenger list were spelled by the clerk as "Soran Joransen" with "Karna, Peter, Botille, Anna, Elna, and Jens" given Joransen as their surname. Their names were further changed during their stay in Iowa, where Karna became Caroline and Joransson became Yorgason. The family settled in Moroni, Utah Territory. There, Caroline raised her family and frequently acted as the local doctor and mid-wife. Her death was untimely. She went to the corral for the evening milking, and as she approached the cow, the animal suddenly swung its head and she was gored deeply. It was a fatal wound. Note that the gravesite photo taken at the Yorgason Family Cemetery in Fountain Green shows the gravestone for Karna "Caroline" Yorgason's husband Soren and his second wife Ellen Forsburg. The stone clearly states that Caroline Yorgason was buried in Moroni, and for this reason it is a cenotaph. | Nilsdotter, Karna "Caroline" (I23044)

2930 | Born c. 1531 and murdered 1570. Moray, born James Stewart, was the illegitimate half-brother of Mary Queen of Scots. Moray was a ruthless, and clever politician who always seemed to be in the right place at the right time. Ambitious and power-hungry, he was the most powerful nobleman of his age. He played a major part in driving Mary from Scotland. [2, 3]** James Stuart/Stewart, 1st Earl of Moray lived from 1531 to 23 January 1570. A half brother of Mary Queen of Scots, he was a convert to Protestantism who variously supported and opposed her, before eventually, while acting as Regent to the infant James VI, defeating her in battle and forcing her into exile and imprisonment in England. James Stewart was the illegitimate son of James V of Scotland and Lady Margaret Erskine, daughter of John Erskine, 4th Earl of Mar. During Mary Queen of Scots' childhood years in France, James became an early convert to Protestantism. He then joined with the Protestant lords opposing the efforts of Mary's mother, Marie de Guise, who as Regent of Scotland sought to preserve the Catholic status quo, using French troops against both the English and internal Scottish dissent. When Mary Queen of Scots returned from France in 1561, James Stewart became her chief adviser, and the following year she made him the 1st Earl of Moray. In 1562 he led Mary's forces to put down a rebellion by the 4th Earl of Huntly: and in the same year married Agnes Keith, daughter of William Keith, 4th Earl Marischal. In 1565 James Stewart strongly opposed the marriage between Mary and Lord Darnley. When the marriage went ahead anyway, Stewart raised a rebellion against Mary in Ayrshire. On 26 August 1565, Mary led an army out of Edinburgh to put down the rebellion, pursuing the rebels over much of southern Scotland in what became known as the Chaseabout Raid. James Stewart escaped and sought sanctuary in Queen Elizabeth I's England, a country with which he had been trying to negotiate closer links. Stewart was among those who plotted a coup attempt against the now heavily pregnant Mary in March 1566, the first step of which was the murder of her Private Secretary, David Rizzio. The coup was defeated after Mary turned Lord Darnley against the other consiprators, and he helped her to safety at Dunbar Castle under the protection of James Hepburn, 4th Earl of Bothwell. Mary's ruthless suppression of the conspirators against her overlooked Stewart, partly because he was in England at the time, and partly because his involvement remained unknown to her. As a result he was able to returning to Scotland in 1566, being pardoned by Mary for his rebellion following her marriage to Darnley. By luck or design, he happened to be in France when Lord Darnley was murdered, and during the period of uproar that followed Mary's marriage to the Earl of Bothwell culminating in Mary's forced abdication in favour of her infant son James VI. James Stewart returned to Scotland to be appointed Regent to the young James VI. When Mary later escaped from Lochleven Castle and attempted to regain power, it was James Stewart who led the forces that defeated her at the Battle of Langside on 13 May 1568, leading to her ill-judged flight to, and imprisonment in, England. James Stewart, 1st Earl of Moray ruled Scotland as a very effective Regent for James VI until 23 January 1570. During a visit to Linlithgow he was assassinated by James Hamilton of Bothwellhaugh, a supporter of Mary. In death he wrote one last small footnote in history: his was the first ever recorded assassination by a firearm anywhere in the world. James Stewart was buried at St Giles Kirk in Edinburgh. | Stewart, Lord James 1st Earl Moray VI, Regent of Scotland, First Earl of Moray, 1st Lord Darnley (I71713)
