DANIEL LYON6 HEALY (WILLIAM5, NATHANIEL4, JOSHUA3, NATHANIEL2, WILLIAM1)240 was born December 26, 1792 in Dudley, Worcester Co., Massachusetts241 Christened: October 05, 1800, Dudley, Worcester Co., Massachusetts243, and died May 14, 1850 in Moscow, Iowa.  He married TRIPHENA KIDDER February 02, 1817, daughter of JEDEDIAH KIDDER and CHLOE FOSTER.  She was born October 03, 1791 in Wardsborough, Vermont, and died July 07, 1861 in Moscow, Iowa. She was a descendant of James Kidder of England; of Cambridge, Mass. 1649, and later Ipswich.  Daniel Lyon Healy was born on the Deacon William Healy homestead in Dudley where he lived as a boy. When a young man he taught school in Dudley. After his marriage he kept the Old Black Horse Tavern in the village, which was directly opposite the Conant Memorial Church. Stages made the Tavern their stopping place,  which, with its ballroom, was a feature of Dudley social life. It was originally called The Black Tavern for the very good reason that its color was black. Its owner, with Yankee shrewdness, had discovered that black paint wore longer than any other color.  He made several changes after giving up the Tavern, and in the spring of 1838  prepared to move his family of seven growing boys and one girl to Cedar County, Muscatine, Iowa on the Mississippi River, which was a considerable task before the days of railroads. From Southbridge, Mass., they went to Providence, R.I. and from there to New York City by boat; up the Hudson River to Albany; thence through the Erie Canal to Buffalo; on to Cincinnati; down the Chio River and up the Mississippi  to Muscatine, where the household goods and personal belongings they managed to take with them were moved by team to their new home.

He related one, how the stove pipe to the  cook's galley on the canal boat was knocked out of position when the cook was busy getting a meal. Evidently he had been reaching for a fork when it happened.  He caught the hot pipe in his hands and kept shifting it from one hand to the other like a hot potato, loudly calling for help, saying: "Somebody give me a fork, give  me a fork, for the Lord's sake won't someone give me a fork."
