Dorothy Truax was also known as Dolly Truax. She lived at Darlington Twp., QC. She moved to Dorchester, ON. She moved to Lexington, Sanilac Co., MI circa 1847.2 From Leonard H. Vincent Memoirs: Dorothy Truax (1803 - 1892) Dorothy Truax was born in Lower Canada October 24, 1803. I have heard her tell of hearing the canonading of the Battle of Plattsburg when very small. History gives the date of that battle as September 11, 1814. She was about eleven years old at that time. She was a very small woman, like all Truaxes, and her sons inherited from her the same characteristics. They were all small men, but in their prime were as active as cats. They all inherited the Truax Spirit to a more or less degree. This Dutch courage as we might call it, although it at times broke out into paroxysms of uncontrollable temper, gave a vim to their characters which their descendants may emulate with pride. Of course their father was by no means devoid of spirit, but it is conceded that the fire of their characters came largely from the Truax stock. If I should have the privilege of remoulding their lives and recasting their characters, I'd put that same ginger back into them in the same proportion. What if they did move under high pressure, they had safety valves in good order. Let no one think I am excusing or apologizing for this trait of theirs, on the contrary I am boasting about it. When my children come to me with moistened eyes and quivering speech, complaining of the treatment of some bullying playmate, I think, oh, for a pinch of the Truax ginger to inject into their veins. I knew my Grandmother only when she was old and I remember her as the sweetest old "body" I ever knew. She always liked to please the children and I am sure she was a favorite with all her grandchildren. From what I have heard of her from those who knew her as "Aunt Dolly", I judge that her popularity was not confined to her own family, but was universal among her acquaintances. The stereotyped phrase, "Beloved by all who knew her" was not inapplicable to her case. Notwithstanding the fact that we often had to be quiet lest we 'annoy Grandma', there was always delight in our home when she came to see us. Even the peculiarity of her enunciation endeared her to us. We remember how she said "bleu" for blue instead of "bloo" and "caouws" for cows. But she never said "pawned" for pond, "dawg" for dog or "lawg" for log. On the whole I believe her pronunciation was subject to less criticism than ours. She often came to our house in the summertime and would gather straw from the grain fields and make straw hats for all of us. In her old age she took a childish delight in dressing dolls and her room was a paradise for children. In her prime she was a good and neat housekeeper and an energetic worker. Although she imparted to her children what I call the Truax spirit, she herself was meek and possessed remarkable self-control. She survived for nearly twenty years after the death of her husband, living with her son Merritt into whose hands the old homestead passed, but she was gathered to her rest at last after living to the ripe old age of 88 years. She died January 12, 1892. May we when we quit this life leave behind us as tender memories and as fond recollections as has "Grandma Vincent". |
