Roll Call

Last changed April 21, 2020
ThruPrairieGrass@gmail.com

This is a "roll call" for Govert, South Dakota, as distinguished from a census, a directory, or a family tree. In some way or another, the town of Govert claimed the allegiance of the people who appear in the Govert Roll Call.

Maybe they were homesteaders or maybe they picked up a quarter section of prairie when the homesteaders moved on, patent in pocket. Maybe the Govert Store is where they provisioned their larder or exchanged community news. Maybe they relied on the Govert Post Office for delivery of their mail and the latest edition of the Govert Advance. Maybe they ordered big equipment like a tractor, or small equipment like a creamer, from Govert Van der Boom, or maybe the Dutchman notarized a bill of sale for them. Maybe they studied their lessons ... or attended P.T.A. meetings or church services ... at the Govert School. Maybe they called on friends in Govert and were welcomed to parties, rolling back the carpets and dancing until dawn. Maybe they herded sheep or maybe they built barns. Maybe Govert was their place to be when they had no other place to be.

These are the people I've met so far in my research. Some claimed a connection to more than one prairie town, so the Roll Call is not restricted by specific boundaries. Their connection to Govert is documented by United States Federal Census Records, South Dakota Census Records, the Govert Advance and other newspapers, deeds, patents, homestead records, BLM Records, marriage records, World War I and World War II draft registration cards, school census records, teachers' work records, city directories, and the memories of the people who claimed Govert as their own.

Many people found Govert a place to work or live for a season or for a year and, in that short time, were not recorded in our memory or by government records. They are the forgotten. We should remember them with an ache in our hearts.

Relationships are noted on the Roll Call, if apparent from the source documents, or if I could figure them out. Parents raising a family in Govert are entered with their children. Where children appear preceded by an asterix (*), they had continuing ties with the Govert community as adults, and will appear in a separate entry with their own families. Women who married after entering the community will have a personal entry and will also appear in a separate entry with their husbands. For example: "CALKINS: Adelaide Christina Calkins (SEE Mrs. Willard L. Esler)". As an aside, although referring to a married woman by her husband's name may no longer be popular, this was the custom of Govert, a custom which I continued here to avoid confusion.

The Govert Roll Call has been and will continue to be a long term project. The list of people influenced by life in Govert will grow and the entries will be corrected by both you and me. I'm adding the Roll Call to the blog now, incomplete as it is, for the loving touch of those who know more than I do.
