The David Graves House
 |
| The David Graves House |
One such house can be found on Carillon Drive in Brandywine Springs Manor, off of Faulkland Road across from Brandywine Springs Park. This is the David Graves House, and it and its surrounding property have stories that trace back to the earliest days of Mill Creek Hundred, with some interesting personalities along the way. The field stone house that stands today certainly dates back to at least the mid-1800's, and there's reason to believe that part of it may be much older than that. Thanks in large part to the tireless work of Walt Chiquoine, the history of the ownership of the property is pretty well-understood. It certainly sits in an interesting corner of MCH.
The first European settler on what would become the Graves farm was a Scots-Irish immigrant named Bryan McDonald. In 1689, he was given a warrant for 239 acres by William Penn, followed in 1703 by two more for 154 and 200 acres. All three properties were surveyed in 1705 and a patent issued in 1706 for a total of 593 acres. As the figure below shows, the tracts were centered around what's now the Faulkland Road/Newport Gap Pike intersection. As you can also see, the site of the Graves House is located in McDonald's original 1689 parcel. Considering that the house sits along a ridge of high ground overlooking the surrounding area, there's good reason to think that McDonald's original homestead site may have been very close to the current house.
 |
| The original properties of Bryan McDonald, Sr. |
In McDonald's 1707 will, his land was split in two, with the northern part going to son Bryan, Junior. By the 1730's and 1740's, however, many of the McDonalds were leaving the area. Around 1746, Bryan McDonald, Jr. sold 286 acres to Jeremiah Wollaston. Wollaston would later split his land, first selling the northern 147 acres to George Robinson in 1757. This is the tract that would later include the Henry Clark Woolen Mill and Sunnybrook Cottage, as well as the Emily Bissell Hospital.
In 1761, Wollaston sold the southern 147 acres to a man whose family would be prominent in the area for several generations -- Ephraim Yarnall. Yarnall greatly expanded his holdings in 1783, when he purchased an additional 256 acres to the south of his original 147. His lands now extended south to Hyde Run, and down to today's Sherwood Park (the 200 acre tract warranted to McDonald in 1703, in the diagram above). Yarnall subsequently sold the southern-most portion of his land, but at the time of his death in 1793 he owned about 227 acres. His property was divided between his sons Nathan and Holton, and his widow Sarah (whose land later went to son Ephraim). Holton's tract later included the Conestoga Wheel (Yarnall) Tavern, as well as Brandywine Springs.
 |
| The divided property of Ephraim Yarnall, 1793 |
Nathan Yarnall was given a tract on the north side of Faulkland Road, more or less between what would later be the Fell property and Newport Gap Pike. He held the property until 1817, when he sold it to Robert Pierson. There must have been some intermediate swapping/selling of land, because the lot that Pierson bought measured just over 63 acres, being a trapezoidal tract keeping the same northern and eastern boundaries, having the turnpike as its western edge, and a line on the south about even with Bristol Drive, the middle street in Brandywine Springs Manor. Pierson (or Pearson) also purchased another nine acres between this tract and Faulkland Road from Ephraim Yarnall in 1831. (Ephraim had gotten it from Holton's estate.)
There were a couple of transactions between Pierson and a Wilmington butcher and land dealer named Joseph Gould in 1836, but I think this may have just been a mortgage sort of situation. The next transfer of the property is a little unclear. It looks like Robert and his wife Jemima Pearson continued to live on the farm until Robert's death. I've seen this listed as being in 1852, but I think it was actually closer to 1840. It seems very likely that sometime between 1840 and 1849, Jemima Pearson sold the property to the next owner, David Graves. Graves was definitely in place by 1849, as he's shown on the Rea and Price map from that year.
David and Mary (Lindsey) Graves were married in 1833, and would eventually have six children in their Brandywine Springs-area home -- five daughters and one son (poor William was the youngest). And speaking of the home, it's probably time we talked about it. David Graves' large, field stone house is still standing, tucked in near the back of Brandywine Springs Manor. It's currently under new and very caring ownership. Like many of these old houses seem to be, it's comprised of several different sections, presumably built at different times. As of now, who built what sections is open for debate.
The house sits on a high ground within Bryan McDonald's original tract. I don't know that any part of the current house is that old, but the original McDonald homestead could have been in the same area. I don't think it's out of the question that the oldest part of the house could date to the Yarnall ownership, or even back to Jeremiah Wollaston. The main sections of the home look very much like the style of the 1810-1840 period, when field stone houses began to replace the older log and frame structures. This would seem to place its construction around the time of Robert Pierson, but for now this is all speculation.
David Graves lived the rest of his life in his beautiful stone home, farming and raising his family. He had a few interesting episodes, like the burglary in 1877 and the remarkable cow the next year. In 1876 he lost a close race for MCH Inspector. Of his children, Anna, Margaret, and William died young and/or unmarried. Sarah married Bennett Klair, while Mary married Joseph W. Derickson (the son of Aquilla Derickson). Eldest daughter Elizabeth married William H. Cornbrooks in 1856, and had four children before passing away at the young age of 27, in 1865. William remarried (to another Elizabeth...must have been his "thing") and as of the 1870 Census, had the oldest two children with him, at his home in Wilmington. However, youngest son David A. Cornbrooks lived at Brandywine Springs with his grandparents. It's not surprising, then, to learn that David Graves bequeathed his home to his namesake grandson after his death in 1885.
David A. Cornbrooks was married in 1886 to Mary Emma Derickson, the daughter of William Derickson. (William first owned the Thomas Justis House on Milltown Road, then inherited his family's farm on McKennans Church Road.) Cornbrooks seems to have been a pretty interesting guy. He was active in the Stanton Methodist Church, the Prohibition Party, and was a commissioner of the #33 Brandywine Springs School District. He fought at one point against the Brandywine Sanatorium's building of a sewer system because he claimed it emptied into Hyde Run, from which his cows drank. But on the other hand, another article specifically mentions him by name as carrying mail to the hospital during a snowstorm.

| Likely the David A. Cornbrooks family in front of their house, c.1899 |
David and Emma raised three daughters in their Brandywine Springs home -- Helen, Clara, and Lillian. Emma passed away in 1927, while David lived until 1942. At the time of his death, Clara was married, Lillian was divorced, and Helen was unmarried and residing with her father. The property was likely passed down to all three girls, but Helen may have stayed at the house a while longer. I've found record of the three selling off land along Newport Gap Pike in 1943, but not the house. I only have access to land records up until the early 1950's, so my hunch is that they sold it off after that point.
It's unclear to me if there were any intermediate owners, but the next ones I know of may help to explain why this particular house is still standing, and in such good shape. At some point the house was bought by Taleasin Hadyn Davies, Jr. and his wife Marie. Taleasin's father was a prominent area doctor and former superintendent of the Ferris Industrial School. That, however, was not the couple's only source of wealth. Mrs. Davies was the former Marie Delphine duPont, daughter of Francis I. duPont, and the great-great granddaughter of the company founder Eleuthere Irenee duPont. She grew up at the duPont estate known as Upper Louviers, or Black Gates.
Taleasin passed away in 1967, by which time the couple resided at the house, now on Carillon Drive. Marie survived until 2009, passing at the age of 92. Her obituary seems to imply that she still owned the house at the time of her death. It has since seen two owners, and I can personally attest is wonderful shape. Whether the house is 160, 190, or closer to 250 years old, it's a fabulous piece of early American architecture and a direct link the early days of Mill Creek Hundred.
DESPITE DROUGHT, NO DOMESTIC WATER CUTS FOR THIS YEAR
From Cyprus Mail - article by George Psyllides 30 May 2018
No water cuts to domestic users are likely this year or next but water for irrigation purposes will be reduced by around 30 per cent during the summer months as Cyprus faces a protracted drought, Agriculture Minister Costas Kades said on Wednesday.
With water supply in the reservoirs dwindling and no sight of an end to the drought, the cabinet on Wednesday decided to draft a strategic framework on water policy expected to be ready in about three months.
Speaking after the meeting, Kades said there were no immediate plans to cut water to households but farmers will see a 30 per cent reduction in water for irrigation purposes.
“There is no such question,” the minister said of household cuts. “The scenarios we took into account concern uninterrupted supply for this year and the next.”
After processing all the available data from the water development department in relation to the water supply in the reservoirs, and after considering the scenario of the drought continuing through the next year, and consultations with farming unions, the ministry tabled a proposal on Wednesday to reduce supply to all districts by 30 per cent. Kades said.
The cuts will kick in on July 1.
Kades said the authorities were also cutting supply to seasonal cultivations and greenhouses.
The cabinet also approved a proposal to draft a comprehensive water management strategy to ensure adequacy.
Cyprus’ water problem will also be discussed at EU level in mid-June.
The ministry was also looking to increase the capacity of existing desalination units.
POLICE FIND WEAPONS THEY BELIEVE ARE LINKED TO ROBBERIES
From Cyprus Mail - article by Annette Chrysostomou 29 May 2018
Police on Monday found weapons, bullets and other evidence which they believe are related to last year’s armed robbery at a Paphos coop bank and other robberies.
According to a police statement, the items were discovered in open spaces and apartments in Paphos and two people are wanted in connection with the findings.
The two suspects have been linked to three flats between Mouttalos and the Tombs of the Kings area in Paphos.
A vehicle used in the bank robbery on October 6, 2017, was found abandoned in a field in Mouttalos later in the day.
Police have been looking for two armed men who stole €30,000 from the bank since.
Both perpetrators wore hoods and were armed with weapons like those found on Monday, one with a short-barrelled shotgun and the other with a G3 rifle.
Farewell from an Old Friend
If you felt a disturbance in the Sherlockian Force last evening, it was the announcement from R. Joel Senter that he has discontinued his monthly Sherlockian E-Times and Baker Street Bulletin.
Joel and his wife, Carolyn, for many years operated Classic Specialties, purveying all things Sherlockian. It was a business, but also a labor of love. They transitioned out of that into the non-profit E-Times, a monthly cornucopia of news, scholarship, and quizzes.
The Senters are good friends of ours, with whom we vacationed many times. We were sorry to get this news by e-mail:
Well, Loyal Readers, it is time for me to be composing the May issue of the Sherlockian E-Times, however circumstances have conspired such that I find that I can no longer rise to the occasion. Hence, the April 2018 edition will be our final issue. I thank you for your readership and I also thank those of you who helped fill our pages by sharing your Sherlockian scholarship with us. It has been a pleasure serving you first through Classic Specialties and the Sherlockian Times and then through the Sherlockian E-Times during these past three decades. Farewell and so-long.
Very sincerely yours,
R. Joel Senter
(Carolyn joins me, of course, in this "Farewell.")
I will this monthly e-publication. If you’ve never seen it, go to the last issue, Vol. 18, No. 4, and see what you’ve been missing.

Sherlock Holmes, Italian-Style
Sherlock Holmes turns up in the most unexpected places.
Recently I was re-reading an Italian comic book to brush up on my Italian language skills in preparation for a trip to Rome. Martin Mystère: Detective Dell’Impossible is an American adventurer whose travels often bringing him to Italy, where he studied in his youth.
The comic has been around since 1982. In episode 293, from 2007, Martin is involved with a group of international Robin Hood types called the Aristocrats, who steal for charitable purposes.
The story is set in modern day, but a flashback scene from a diary has Oscar Wilde describing the famous Langham Hotel dinner at which he and Arthur Conan Doyle were each commissioned to write a novel. “Imagine my disappointment,” Wilde says (my translation), “when I realized that Sherlock Holmes really exists. I thought that he (Conan Doyle) had invented him.”
Forty-two pages later, Wilde encounters ACD again years later and congratulates him on Il Segno dei Quattro – “great title, my dear doctor . . . but, above all, a grand adventure, in which the investigative genius of Sherlock Holmes shines again.”
This passage is illustrated by a drawing of a deerstalkered Holmes with Watson and the body of the late Bartholomew Sholto.
Conan Doyle responds to Wilde, in part: “I owe it all to my friend John Watson, who gave me permission to draw on his diaries.”
I own a nice paperback copies of Il Segno dei Quattro, Il Mastino dei Baskervilleand Tutto Holmes (the Complete). I hope I can add to my Sherlock Holmes library on our Roman holiday . . . and I wouldn’t mind picking up another adventure of Martin Mystère: Detective Dell’Impossible as well.

CehennemDölü 1/5
VehennemDölü ya da Cehennem Çocuğu adlı bu kahraman da isim bulma konusunda bir kararsızlık yaşadım. İlk sayının ilk kapağında ve sonrakilerin içi kapağında CehennemÇocuğu olarak geçecek ama daha iyi tanımlayan ismin CehnnemDölü şeklinde olması gerektiğini düşünerek bundan sonra o isile devam eder. Bir vampiden bahsettiğimize ve bu vampirin de babası mitolojideki Hades, yeraltı tanrısı olduğuna göre çocuğu tabiri yerine dölü tabiri daha iyi giden bir isim olsa gerek.
Gelelim konusuna: Geçmişte Vlad isimli birine aşık olan Hades'in Kızı Angelica Vladın kaybından dolayı babasını suçlmakatadır. Lisesl van Hesing ise bu arada Hades'in kız arkadaşıdır. Onun binlerce yıl öncesinden gelen bu pişmanlığını da bildiği için Hades2in kızı Angelica'yı Marian isimli cadı arkdaşının yardımıyla hayata döndürmeye çalışırlar ama işler istedikleri gitmez. devamı kitaplarımızda, yazdık okuyun efendim.

RING WIFI SECURITY CAMERAS & CAR KEY SIGNAL BLOCKER POUCH
RING WIFI SECURITY CAMERAS
Ring wifi security cameras for outside monitoring which you can install yourself. Includes motion detection, floodlights, two way speaking capability, a loud siren. Can be controlled from your phone and you receive notifications by phone. You can customise motion zones, light motion zones, times, etc.
Downfall is that it is connected to your electricity and wifi so if thieves disable your electricity from outside then these will not work. However, you will be notified that there is motion if someone is hanging around your electricity box [provided it is in view of your camera].
There are several different options available on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ring-Floodlight-Cam-8SF1P7-BEU0-Floodlights/dp/B074G9DPXD/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1527421329&sr=8-3&keywords=ring+floodlight+security+camera
CAR KEY SIGNAL BLOCKER POUCH
Thieves can use wireless car key signal readers which copy electronic signal from your car key and then use it to steal your car. This can happen within a matter of seconds from outside your property and without breaking car windows. Wireless signal from your car key transmits through walls and doors of your house. To prevent this you can either build a Faraday box made of thick aluminium foil to store your keys whilst in the house [you can see online how to do this] or for a more convenient solution you can purchase a foil lined car key signal blocking pouch.
Amazon have a selection

SUSPECTED BURGLAR WANTED BY POLICE
From Cyprus Mail - article by Staff Reporter 24 May 2018
Police on Thursday asked the public to assist in tracking down a man suspected of a burglary of a house taking place in Limassol on January 31.
Police are seeking Givi Kutchasvili, 27, a Georgian national.
Anyone with information on his whereabouts should contact their nearest police station, call Limassol CID at 25805057 or the Citizens Hotline at 1460.
The other man wanted in connection with the burglary is already in custody, police said.
He is Zurab Usupyan, aged 41.
CehennemÇocuğu
CehenemÇocuğu Pek Yakında
Daha önce Van Helsing çevirisi paylaşmıştım. Bu yayınevinin çizgiromanlarını seviyorum. Van Helsing'de eski korku dergilerinde yayınlanmış Vampirella ile birlikte vampirlere karşı mücadele eden yaşlı bir adamdı. Yanılmıyorsam çizeri Jose Gonzales'ti ve muteşem bir tarza sahipti. Benim çevirdiğim van Helsing'de ise kahraman o van Helsing'in kızı Liesel. Çizimler yine çok güzel, eski klasik siyah beyaz tonlamalı idi, bu renkli. Yakında çevirini sunacağım ÇehennemÇocuğu ya da belki de CehennemDölü olarak çevirsem daha doğru olur, orta seviye bir çizime sahip ama konu ilginç. Aslında konu bir köken açıklam macerası gibi. CehennemDölü adını vermişler çünkü burda anlatılan Angelica. Hades'in kızı. Hades kim mi, Liesel'in erkek arkadaşı, Eski Yunan'ın cehennemden sorumlu bakanı. O yüzden ismi de yulardaki iki isimden biri zaten. Konudan çok fazla bahsetmek istemiyorum, sürprizi kaçmasın. Ama yakında paylaşmaya başlayacağım. Çevirinin hepsini bitirmeden genelde paylaşmadığım için, bunu da şimdi paylaşmıyorum ama çevirinin bitmesine iki sayı kaldı.
Yakında diyerek şimdilik bu kadar.
POLICE WATCHDOG CALLS FOR MORE RESOURCES
From Cyprus Mail - article by George Psyllides 23 May 2018
The police independent watchdog received 234 complaints against the force last year and appointed investigators in 92, the House ethics committee heard on Wednesday.
“Out of the 92 cases, six were criminally prosecuted, and five led to disciplinary procedures,” committee chairman Zaharias Zahariou said.
The watchdog deemed that 92 out of the 234 warranted investigation.“It’s not just those that end up in criminal or disciplinary procedures, it the (watchdog) is also a weapon used by the public in civil suits, if proven, against the Republic,” Zahariou added.
Zahariou said the authority neither had a big budget nor any supporting personnel to assist in the investigations.
The authority has five members who are appointed by the cabinet for a five-year term.
Akel MP Aristos Damianou said despite efforts there were problems that were also mentioned in European Council reports regarding the adequacy of the authority’s budgets.
There were also possible conflict of interest issues like when state pathologists who may be called to investigate a complaint against the police are at the same time working with the force.
The investigators appointed to look into a complaint are themselves former officers, Damianou said.
“All these lead to the conclusion that there is a lot of room for improvement, but mainly an urgent need for the state to afford more cash and more capabilities to this important authority,” the MP added.
Damianou said everyone agreed that the authority lacked state support, both in human resources and tech, making it hard for them to do the work the state wanted.
OVER 70 PER CENT OF RUBBISH STILL DUMPED IN LANDFILLS
From Cyprus Mail - article by Annette Chrysostomou 24 May 2018
The amount of rubbish thrown into landfills is unacceptable and the practice threatens to burden the state with large fines by the European authorities, Environment Minister Costas Kadis said on Wednesday morning.
According to European directives, he said, less than 10 per cent of municipal rubbish should end up in landfills, whereas in Cyprus more than 70 per cent does.
Kadis expressed the hope that through a major agreement recently signed with a waste management company, a concerted effort will be made to bring Cyprus closer to complying with the objectives of the EU.
Under the agreement, he explained, a gradual reduction of shipping waste to Kotsiatis landfill will start, with the aim of closing down the controversial landfill, thereby avoiding a payment of a €60 million penalty to the EU.
The minister said soon a series of meetings with local authorities will begin to discuss how to speed up processes leading to this result.
Just one day ago the government announced it has struck a deal to pay €36 per tonne for the processing of municipal waste at the Koshi treatment plant, compared to €54 up until now.
Helector, the consortium operating the waste-processing facility reportedly agreed to lower their rate on condition that the government moves to close the Kotsiatis landfill site and divert the waste from there to Koshi – thereby increasing the volumes of processed waste.
Kadis’ remarks came a day after the European council adopted a waste package which sets out new rules for waste management and establishes legally binding targets for recycling.
Member states will have to meet targets as they increase the reuse and recycling of municipal waste over the coming years. They need to reuse and recycle 55 per cent of it by 2025, 60 per cent by 2030 and 65 per cent by 2035.
Cyprus now recycles less than 20 per cent of its waste.
EU members will set up, by January 1, 2025, separate collections of textiles and hazardous waste from households. In addition, they will ensure that by the end of December 2023, bio-waste is either collected separately or recycled at the source, such as by home composting. This is in addition to the separate collection which already exists for paper and cardboard, glass, metals and plastic.
The legislation defines specific targets for packaging. 65 per cent of all packaging should be recycled by 2025, and 70 per cent by 2030. The numbers are higher for paper and cardboard, 75 per cent and 80 per cent respectively.
As of 2030, all waste suitable for recycling or other recovery, in particular municipal waste, shall not be accepted in a landfill.
Now that the Council has adopted the legislation, it will enter into force 20 days after its publication in the Official Journal.
Over the past two decades many member states have gradually improved their waste management, in line with the EU waste hierarchy. In 1995, on average 64 per cent of municipal waste was landfilled in the EU. In 2000, the average had been reduced to 55 per cent while the average recycling rate stood at 25 per cent. In 2016, landfilling of household waste in the EU as a whole dropped to 24 per cent, with recycling having increased to 46 per cent. Yet, challenges and big differences between EU countries remain. Cyprus is just one of ten member states which still landfilled over 50 per cent of their household waste in 2016.
