Abstract: The Foote family owned and operated a tannery in the Traverse City area
during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This collection of documents
primarily relates to a descendant of John Newcomb Foote (1825-1902), Clara Foote
Ferrell, and her membership in the Daughters of the American Revolution organization.
Documents include photographs, news clippings, certificates, articles, land titles,
albums, and membership documents related to the Daughters of the American
Revolution.
History: John Newcomb Foote (1825-1902) was born in Clinton, Oneida county, New
York and moved to Wexford county in 1869. Foote found employment at the Traverse
City Tanney established by the Norris brothers in Norrisville (on the shore two miles
north of Traverse City, Michigan) during several increments of time beginning in 1871
and continuing until 1880. In 1880, Foote rented the Norrisville tannery, after which point
he erected a new building on the bay shore and purchased the stock and machinery of
the former Norrisville plant. Foote continued operating his tanney business successfully
until his death in 1902.
John Newcomb Foote married Miss Virginia Jenison in 1956, and the couple had two
sons and three daughters: Rose (died at age six), William (b. 1861), John N. (b. 1863),
Cora (b. 1865), and Clara (b. 1874). John Newcomb Foote II learned the tanning trade
under his father and eventually became a partner in the tanning business, thereafter
named Johnson Foote & Son. Both John Newcomb Foote and John Newcomb Foote II
participated in local politics, each serving as the treasurer of Elmwood Township during
different periods of time.
Clara Foote Ferrell married Clarence Willard Ferrell in 1908 in Charlevoix, Michigan.
Clara was an active member of the John Sackett chapter of the Daughters of the
American Revolution for fifty + years. The Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR)
is a lineage-based membership service organization for women who claim direct
descent from individuals who were involved in the American campaign for
independence. The organization was founded in 1890 and has a central mission of
promoting historic preservation, education, and patriotism. Clara Foote Ferrell claimed
membership to the DAR as a descendant of John Foote (a private who served during
the Revolutionary War), Benjamin Lull, Joseph Lull, Samuel Cunnabell, William
Newcomb, Peter Jenison, and Ebenezer Knapp.
