Henry C. Friend was born 1842 in either New York or Pennsylvania.  A newspaper article from the New York Times says NY, but the census taker in Milan counted his son, William Friend, and reported that William’s father was born in PA.  The newspaper report stated that he was of French descent.  NYT Jan. 6, 1889.

Friend Henry

Prof. Henry C. Friend died March 10, 1888 in New York City.  He did not die in the Great Blizzard, which came a day or two later.  Friend had been sick for six weeks before he died.  Wm. Henry Hack was there in New York with him, at his side, when he died.

Friend Henry

Henry C. Friend, age 42, was on board “The Oregon” and arrived in New York on Dec. 21, 1885.  (He was born about 1843.) The ship departed Liverpool, England. Other passengers on the arrival document:  Olive, his wife, age 30; William E., his son, age 7 months, and Emily Howard, 48.

Friend Henry

Henry C. Friend was married Feb. 3, 1883 in Niles, Michigan, according to marriage records from Berrien County.  He was 41 and a resident of Chicago. The bride, Mrs. Olive E. Van Ness, was 31, and a resident of Chicago. He was born in New York, occupation Chemist. Wedding was officiated by A. M. Gould, clergyman, and witnessed by Wm. E. Howard and Emily Howard both of Chicago.

Friend Olive

Olive E. Friend was born in Dec. 1852 according to the 1900 census, where she was living in Detroit with her husband George Halstead.  If her husband was born in 1843, he was 9 years older.

Friend Olive

Olive Friend built a house on County Street.  She was a niece of Mary Hack (Mary Hack was James Hack’s mother).  House later known as “Hack House.”  Olive Friend was the daughter of Jacob M. Vanness, a farm laborer, and Emily Burnham.  See “Burnham.”

Friend Olive

In 1888, Olive Friend had an addition put on her house in Milan.  She put on the addition soon after her husband died, in the opinion of R.M.  There is an art book published in about 1893 that shows her house, and the addition was on the house at that time.

Friend Olive

Olive Friend was born Olive Van Ness.  She married Oliver Tibado Sept. 26, 1867 in Washtenaw County, MI.  Olive was the daughter of Emily Burnham and Jacob Van Ness.   Olive later married her second husband, Prof. Henry Friend.

Friend Olive

Olive and Oliver must have divorced by 1879 because the 1880 census shows Oliver Tibado living with his new wife Cora and a child 8 months old.  By 1884, Olive and her new husband Henry Friend moved to NY so that Henry could find investors in his “chemical sugar process.”  Around this time, Olive’s mother and step-dad, Emily and William E. Howard, also moved to NY.  Presumably Olive and Henry Friend were married between 1882-1883 or thereabouts.

Friend Olive

Olive Friend worked at one time in the sugar factory of the New York Electric Sugar Company.  She secretly bought the bags of refined sugar.  Her husband Henry Friend advertised that he processed the sugar to make it even more pure, so it seemed like it was a real accomplishment for the electric appliance they were supposedly going to sell.  For the sake of appearances to investors, they purchased an 8-story building by the river in NY.  They took raw sugar and dumped it down the drain, replacing it in the appliance with refined sugar.

Friend Olive

The Electric Sugar Company hired some of Olive Friend’s relatives from Milan to work for the company.  Her uncle Lyman Burnham came to use his carpenter skills.  Lyman’s son-in-law Oren Augustus “Gus” Halstead and Gus’s brother George Alstead also came to NY to do the manual labor.  Source:  R.M.
