Thomas B. Novinger
THOMAS B. NOVINGER. In the annals of early settlement of Meade County one of
the names which is first to be mentioned is that of Thomas B. Novinger. He
made settlement here thirty years ago, and in all the subsequent years his
name has been associated with solid work and an industry which brings credit
to the possessor and has helped to create the resources and wealth of the
community.
He was born February 8, 1864, in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, and it was by
several successive stages that the family and his own destiny became linked
with this point in the far West. He went with his parents to Coffey County,
Kansas, and was there three years, the Novinger farm being situated
southeast of Burlington. From that point Mr. Novinger started west on a tour
of exploration and investigation, was over the Colorado country for several
weeks, from there arrived by train at Cimarron, and one day in July, 1887,
stepped off the stage coach at the little settlement of Plains in Meade
County. He was then twenty-three years of age, unmarried, and had the best
years of his life before him in which to give an account of his own
capabilities and make good for himself and for others. A few settlers had
preceded him from his old county of Coffey, Kansas, but of this early colony
he is now the last survivor to remain in Meade County. He chose his location
in Cimarron Township,!
seven miles southeast of Plains, and there homesteaded the southwest
quarter of section 25, township 33, range 30. The home which he established
there with such simplicity of surroundings and equipment thirty years ago
has been the continuous environment for all his subsequent years, though he
has altered that environment by many improvements.
Mr. Novinger brought with him sufficient cash with which to equip himself
for the trials and vicissitudes of pioneer existence. He built a one-room
sod house, and that sheltered him during the period of seven years while he
was proving up. All that time he remained a bachelor, and he not only had
experience as a farmer and horse raiser but as housekeeper also. It may have
been due to his bachelor existence that he escaped the pinch which compelled
many of his neighbors to borrow money on their claims. By the time he
secured the patent on his land he had gathered around him a large number of
good horses, owed only a few floating debts, and was well satisfied with the
country. In the meantime he had witnessed the opening of the Cherokee Strip,
which drained this part of Kansas of nearly all its population, and yet he
had no thought of yielding to the temptation to move across the line and get
one of the free homes in the Indian country. Mr. Novinger also proved up a
pre-emptio!
n in section 35, township 33, range 30. He did some trading, and eventually
acquired three quarter sections in section 26 and a quarter in section 25,
township 33, range 30. This land was just as nature had made it, and from
the different quarters he developed a productive farm and ranch. While the
surest source of income for him for a number of years was horses, he
abandoned that industry and took up cattle. When at his full stride as a
cattle man he was running about a hundred head, and he has developed his
grade stock into high class Durhams. While he has done something in
dairying, his chief aim has been the production of beef. Mr. Novinger's
experience would he helpful if followed in complete detail, since he has
experimented with all varieties of seed and has followed different methods
of treating the soil. Out of it all he has derived the lesson that seed
planted after the soil is warm and upon summer-fallowed ground goes a long
way toward assuring the farmer his fal!
l crop.
Mr. Novinger's present surroundings distinguish him as one of the
progressive and prosperous men of his county. His home of eight rooms was
completed in 1916, and among other permanent improvements are barn, granary
and sheds and a reliable water supply. He is a stockholder in the Farmers
Elevator at Plains. He has recognized a direct obligation to do what he
could to give his home community good schools, churches and other
institutions. For two terms he was trustee of Plains Township and is now
serving his second term as county commissioner. He has been a member of the
board with A. B. Roberts and John Cordes. The chief matter handled by the
board has been "roads, roads and roads." The board also has done
considerable cement bridge building. Mr. Novinger began voting as a democrat
and has been satisfied with that allegiance. He was reared in the faith of
the Reformed church and has always encouraged church influences. Mrs.
Novinger is a member of the Christian Church. She i!
s affiliated with the Royal Neighbors and his fraternal affiliations are
with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and the Modern Woodmen of America.
Mr. Novinger's grandfather, Isaac Novinger, was a native of Dauphin County,
Pennsylvania, died and is buried there. He was a carpenter by trade. He
married Hannah Hawk, of Holland Dutch ancestry. Their children were: Hiram,
who was a soldier in the Mexican war and fills a soldier's grave in Old
Mexico; Charles; Simon, who pioneered to Arizona, became a miner and died at
Phoenix, where he entered a part of the townsite; Isaac, who had a farm near
Leechburg, Pennsylvania; Thomas, who served as captain of a company in the
Civil war and for many years was a hotel man at Painterville, Pennsylvania;
James, a soldier of the Civil war for a brief period, and afterwards a
farmer and teacher of Dauphin County, Pennsylvania; Mary, who married Henry
Gilbert and lived in Dauphin County; and Susan, who was the wife of Henry
Clauser of Dauphin County.
Charles Novinger, father of Thomas B., was born in Dauphin County,
Pennsylvania, in January, 1828. He was a blacksmith by trade, followed that
occupation in Pennsylvania, and for a number of years was head blacksmith
for the contractors who constructed the lines of the Pennsylvania Railway
through Pennsylvania. After settling on a farm in Coffey County, Kansas,
Charles Novinger had a small shop equipped with tools, did all his own
blacksmithing, and occasionally proffered his services to his neighbors. In
Pennsylvania he had also been interested in saw milling. As a citizen he was
usually content to express his opinions and convictions and help fill local
offices with capable men, though for himself he desired nothing in the way
of political honors. He was a strong supporter of popular education, was a
democrat and a member of the Reformed church. Charles Novinger died at his
old home in Coffey County in September, 1907.
He married in 1855 Sarah Mehargue, a daughter of John and Margaret (Allen)
Mehargue. The original name was McHargue, and is of Scotch-Irish origin.
Mrs. Charles Novinger was born in December, 1828, and at the age of ninety
is still living at her home in Coffey County, Kansas. Her children are named
as follows: Mason D., of Phoenix, Arizona; Hannah, wife of Henry Miller, of
Fisherville, Pennsylvania; Elizabeth, wife of William Davis, of Guymon,
Oklahoma; Thomas B.; Newton, of Coffey County; Laura, wife of Edward Gentry,
at Clemontsville, North Dakota; Mary, unmarried and living in Coffey County;
and Patrick, of Coffey County.
Thomas B. Novinger married in Meade County, Kansas, April 5, 1896, Miss E.
May Givler. She was born in Cass County, Missouri, May 6, 1877, during a
temporary residence of her parents there, but she grew up in Meade County,
Kansas, and her schooling, like that of Mr. Novinger, was acquired in the
district schools. She was one of the three children of Samuel and Minnie
(Morrison) Givler. Her sister, Mabel is the wife of Robert M. Cook, of
Ashland, Kansas, and her brother, Linn L., is a resident of Rosebud,
Montana. Samuel Givler, her father, was born in Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania, February 5, 1854, and about 1858 accompanied his parents,
Henry and Elizabeth (Goodheart) Givler, to Illinois, and ten years later the
family came on to Kansas. Henry Givler died in Allen County, Kansas, in
1900. The children of Henry Givler and wife were: Isaac and William, both of
whom were Union soldiers in the Civil war, Mrs. Anna Morrison and Mrs. Mary
Faddis of Iola; David, who was a black!
smith and died at Iola; Samuel; and Lina, who married James Riley.
Samuel Givler was not only one of the early settlers of Allen County,
Kansas, where he now resides, but was identified with the first opening of
Meade County, being there before the county was organized. He went into that
western region in 1884, and took claims sixteen miles southwest of Meade
Center. He also homesteaded and was a resident and honored citizen of Meade
County thirty-three years. His first habitation was like that of the other
pioneers, a sod residence, and his industry was stock raising and later
farming. He remained in the county until 1917, when he went back to his
former residence in Allen County. He is well remembered in this section
because of his official prominence. He was a deputy United States marshal
and deputy sheriff, and for two terms was sheriff of Meade County.
Mr. and Mrs. Novinger have an interesting family of children. Their names
are Charles D., Vance L., Nellie N., Glenn V., Howard A., Henry H., Thomas
Mehargue and Mabel Elizabeth, better known as Ruth. The son Charles is one
of the youthful soldiers of the National army, being a member of Company F
in the Second Infantry, stationed at Fort Shaefter in the Hawaiian Islands.
Mrs. Novinger's mother Minnie Morrison, was a daughter of Robert and Eliza
(Coles) Morrison, and was one of the heirs of Charles Coles, who was
bequeathed a quarter section of land in East St. Louis by Daniel Boone. This
land has long been the subject of a legal contest carried on by these heirs
and claimants and the matter has never been settled.

stayed in Clinton County and are buried at Rossville Cemetery. John C.
CARSON's son, Harvey Morton CARSON (1892-1980), married Mabel CLAUSER and
lived all of his life in Clinton County. His sister, Anna, married Mabel's
half-brother, Guy CLAUSER.
