Some time after 1860, I believe, Judge Epenitus (sp? name?) Sears had a farm near Tabor, Iowa (or Indianola?). My great-grandfather Frederick William Lehmann I was then a run-away teenager from a poor family in Cincinnati who had wandered as a vagabond, shepherd and farm hand through Missouri and Iowa. Judge Sears took him on as a farm hand, and finding him bright, encouraged him to read books and in particular law books. Later Judge Sears helped, to become a lawyer. My great-grandfather was successful, and became twice president of the American Bar Association and Solicitor General of the US under Taft. In gratitude for Judge Sears' help, he named his oldest son "Sears" Lehmann; that son named his oldest "Sears" too, my late uncle. A new "Sears" may be on the way. I would like to learn what is known about Judge Sears and his descendants. I've heard he has descendants in Des Moines who are aware of the story. Yours Truly, Frederick W Lehmann IV
				Epenetus married Julia A Allen. Julia was born about 1821 in , Chautauqua Co., NY.
