Corning, Tehama, California Library, Aug 2000, Book: "Tehama CountyPioneers" by Keith Lingenfelter, Vol 4,
R 979.427 LIN C.2 "R to Z", copyright 1996 by Spatial Ink, Chico,Tehama, California. Original Manuscripts are at the College in Chico,California
Lists wife as Mary. Since she was his wife when he moved to Paskenta,they did not know that the mother of his children was Emily Merrill, whodied in 1868.
This document lists "other grandchildren of John." The ones I do nothave a record of are: Daniel Udell, born 1847, Ralph Udell, born 1855,and Irene Udell, born . The parents of these additional grandchildrenwere not given, so I am only listing them here.
Corning, Tehama, California Library, Microfiche of County Records:
Has Birth date as 28 June 1793, probably from headstone.
Have pictures of headstone in Paskenta, Tehama, California cemetery. Heis buried in the Wood family plot, along with his daughter Caroline MaryUdell Wood, her husband Stephen and their family.
Aug 2000, Red Bluff, Tehama, California Court House. Probate CourtRecords. November 12, 1877, Alva Udell, grandson of John, filed to becomethe Administrator of the Estate. He posted a bond of $250. and wasgranted the Administrator ship. This is very interesting, since Johnsupposedly died intestate, not having any property, real or personal.This is also declared in the document, 'no property of any kind...'.There are three separate documents and in the first Alva Udell lists allknown, living relatives of John. It is here the location of Mary, John'ssecond wife if mentioned: '..believes and therefore alleges to be theheirs at law of said deceased are Mrs. Mary L. Udell, widow, age ,residing at some place in Arizona Territory, ......'. If no propertyexisted in John's name, why file Probate over four years after his death?Photo copies of the Probate records are in my files.
Correspondence with Scott Hall, 25 Aug 2000. Refers to research byDennis Marr and Susan B. Naumann.
Some records have birth year as 1793 and some 1795. Further researchleads me to believe he was born in 1794. He says he celebrated his 65thbirthday while on the Beale Road. Has second wife's name as "ClarindaAnderson", but it should be "Mary Llarinda Anderson." The name Llarindais Spanish and the LL is pronounced as a "Y". This is not an uncommonname in this area because there is a large Hispanic population now andwhen John lived there. P.Smith, Sept 2000.
Correspondence with Mel Bliven 3 Jan 2002
'History of Lenox Township, Ashtabula, Ohio 1878, pg 223. During 1814 &1815, Benjamin Waters, Joseph Walling, Jared Merrill and Seth Smith, withtheir families, were the principal additions to the population. Pg. 224In about 1820 there was built and put into operation on lot 25, by JohnUdell and Sylvanus Merrill, a small distillery for the manufacture ofwhiskey.
Correspondence with Mel Bliven: He believes the entry in Jack BealeSmith's book regarding John's second wife may have been a typo and thather name really is Mary Clarinda Anderson. P.Smith 2002

'Family of Lionel and Abigail Bill Udall
Partial genealogies of 'our' Udall/Udell family have been written, andare dated 1856, 1859, 1878 (not seen), 1882?, 1904, 1906, 1929, and 1950.There may be many more, and if you have one, or know of same, pleaseadvise.
1856. The earliest known story is that told by John3 Udell in his "Lifeof Udell." It is reasonable to assume that he relied on his father'srecords. His book is 'John Udell, Incidents Of Travel to California,Across The Great Plains; Together With The Return Trips Through CentralAmerica and Jamaica; to Which Are Added Sketches of The Author's Life.'Jefferson, Ohio; Printed for the Author, at the Sentinel Office. 1856.When I started becoming interested in Family history I knew little of theUdell's. The 'furthest' for me was Henry, remembered by my mother as"little grandpa." Passing by a bookcase at Goodspeed's (Boston, SuffolkCounty, Massachusetts) in 1970 I saw a copy of John Udell's book and hadto have it. That was the highest-priced book I had ever bought-$80.00. Amicrofilm copy is available, for $20.00. As of December 12, 2001, youwill need to send $20 to Lynne Morgan, Disciples of Christ HistoricalSociety, 1101 19th Ave S, Nashville, TN 37212, with your order for themicrofilm. She will order it for you--it usually takes 4-6 weeks, asthey have to send it out to be done. This is microfilm and can only beread on a microfilm reader.
1859. One of the rarest books in Western Americana is 'John Udell'sJournal," published in Suisun City, Solano County, California, in 1859,which describes John 3 Udell and his wife Emily's adventure-filledjourney to California. A variant edition was published in 1860 (notseen), and an edition was published in 1946. It is available on-line, inchapters.
1878. Arner, 1950, p. 154, in his article on Cornelius 4 Udell, states"In his later life he wrote his 'Condensed History of Jefferson, Ohio"which was published in 1878 by J.A. Howells & County, in Jefferson.
1882. Alvah G. Udell, of Hiram, Ohio "Family History of The Udells" 6pp(believed to be written sometime during 1882).
1904. Dr. George B.L. Arner, Jefferson, Ohio Compiler, "Descendants ofDr. Lionel Udall of Stonington, Conn." The Genealogical Exchange,published monthly at Buffalo, New York., vol 1, No. 6, October, 1904, etseq. He expanded and typed his Mss in 1929 (Harrisburg, Pennsylvania),and again in 1950 (Washington, D.C.). A typescript of the 1950 version,"DR. LIONEL UDALL AND HIS DESouth CarolinaENDANTS," was given to hissister, Mrs. Bert Chambers, of Concord, Merrimack County, New Hampshire.She donated her copy to the New England Historical and GenealogicalSociety (NEHGS). According to their librarian in 1970, Arner's researchnotes and file cards are at NGS, Washington, D.C. I do have a copy of the1950 manuscript, impossible to copy legibly and not transcribed. 1906.John Denison Champlin, "Udall Family Record," The New England Historicaland Genealogical Register (NEHGR) 60 (1906): 330-1. He writes "Thefollowing record of two generation of the Udall family is from an accountbook of Dr. Lionel Udall, a practicing physician at Stonington, Conn., inthe first half of the eighteenth century. Dr. Udall, who is ignored byWheeler in his history of the town, was a man of considerable prominence,and appears to have had a large practice in eastern Connecticut andthroughout Rhode Island, extending from New London to Newport. He issaid to have been born in England about 1690, to have come early to thiscountry, and to have married in Stonington, where all his children wereborn, and where he died in 1767. The accounts in his book range from1750 to 1767. Besides medical charges and credits on the opposite pageto patients, the volume contains a few private memoranda and thegenealogical record. The first half of the latter is in the handwritingof Dr. Lionel Udall himself, the last in that of his grandson James, bornSept. 19, 1779, son of Samuel Udall.
