\u201cHow many ascensions have you made, Miss Thurston?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThis will be my 22nd<\/sup>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe wind is blowing pretty hard.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWell, rather, but it will do no harm.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

A Poughkeepsie Eagle<\/em> reporter asked these questions to Miss Nellie Thurston in the morning of July 4, 1871. She\u2019d flown in tandem flights with others before, but this would be her first solo effort.<\/p>\n

In fact, later that afternoon, Miss Thurston would become the first woman in United States history to make a solo ascension in a balloon. She would lift off from Eastman Park in Poughkeepsie.<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Nellie Thurston the \u201cCharming Young Lady Aeronaut\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Nellie Thurston was born Ellen Moss in Troy, New York, in 1846. From the years 1864 to 1867 she was married to the famous aeronaut John LaMountain. LaMountain, also from Troy, gained fame in the Union Army\u2019s Balloon Corp during the Civil War, making several reconnaissance missions over battlefield sites.<\/p>\n

Ellen picked up an avid passion for flight at a very young age, before the war began. Her first experiences in the sky were with her father\u2019s second cousin\u2026. John LaMountain (16 years her senior). One of several detailed accounts of them flying together during those early years occurred in September of 1858 over Troy when Ellen was 12-years-old.<\/p>\n

Nellie was known as \u201cMiss Ellen Moss\u201d even after the couple married. John died in February of 1870 from injuries sustained in a balloon crash in South Bend, Indiana. Nellie created the professional name \u201cNellie Thurston\u201d after their marriage and the subsequent death of John.<\/p>\n

Another young person under the tutelage of John LaMountain was Herman D. Squire. The very talented and diligent Squire made a name for himself in the commercial business of ballooning. Nellie and Squire met during their years with LaMountain and eventually married in 1872.<\/p>\n

Poughkeepsie\u2019s 1871 Independence Day festivities brought over 10,000 people to Eastman Park. The immense airships took hours to fill while onlookers watched. The thousands of attendees were in much more danger than they realized. Victorian-era balloons weren\u2019t filled with hot air, but hydrogen. The gas was created through a process that utilized iron fillings, sulfuric acid, and limestone.<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Mayor Eastman kicked off the celebration at noon with a rousing speech about prosperity and peace in the country, as well as the pride he felt for his city. The people were entertained by John Flockton\u2019s Poughkeepsie Cornet Band. Others enjoyed picnicking throughout the grounds, while local dignitaries occasionally made speeches from the large grandstand. There were games and contests like sack and tub races, and attempts to climb a tall, greased pole (who needs a cell phone when you can try getting to the top of a greased pole!).<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

At 5pm, Mayor Eastman announced that the two balloons were about to ascend. Professor Herman D. Squire would navigate the balloon \u201cAtlantic,\u201d while Nellie Thurston would take off on the new airship \u201cGolden Gate.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Eagle<\/em> reporter claimed that, \u201c\u2026all eyes were on the lady, who was small in stature and prepossessing in appearance<\/em>.\u201d Nellie was, \u201c\u2026 attired in a light suit, a jaunty jockey, and blue kids, dressed as though for an afternoon\u2019s promenade.\u201d<\/em> He continued, \u201cAt the given signal, both balloonists left the Earth to wild cheering and ascended to the realms above.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

At first, Prof. Squire\u2019s Atlantic lifted rapidly past Thurston\u2019s Golden Gate. Then Nellie was seen tossing over many bags of sand, which accelerated her ascent past Squire and eventually above the clouds.<\/p>\n

In a later interview, Squire asked Thurston, \u201cWhat made you throw out so much sand?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Nellie\u2019s response? \u201cWhy I saw you going for the clouds and I didn\u2019t want you to get ahead of me; I didn\u2019t want you to beat me.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

She sailed skyward at 40 miles per hour. So fast, in fact, that her fingers began to get numb with cold and \u201c\u2026my head seemed as large as a drum, and it seemed as though my ears were stuffed with cotton.\u201d<\/em> Nellie began to feel dizzy and tired, so she decided to go no higher. It was presumed she\u2019d reached the height of 20,000 feet during this voyage.<\/p>\n

Her view of the City of Poughkeepsie and the clouds below her was, \u201cgrand beyond description<\/em>.\u201d For Nellie to make her descent, she wound a \u201cvalve rope\u201d around her waist and threw her body to the bottom of her basket to open the valve. She drifted away from the city to the north, eventually landing in a field between Staatsburg and Rhinebeck.<\/p>\n

Nellie had difficulty with her landing, bouncing three times before the balloon struck a stone wall. She was approached by a Mr. DeGroff and his dog. DeGroff, in a Celtic accent asked, \u201cAre ye there me darlin?\u201d<\/em> Nellie began to laugh and told him she might want to go up again. He answered, \u201cYees are a bigger fool nor I thought yees were.\u201d<\/em> Considering the time, Nellie stayed with DeGroff\u2019s family in Staatsburg for the night, before returning to the Poughkeepsie Hotel the next morning.<\/p>\n

The Independence Day celebration didn\u2019t end with the balloon ascensions. A grand fireworks show proceeded at 7:30. The crowds then left Eastman Park and filled the streets for a night on the town. Special trains departed from the Poughkeepsie Railroad Station at 10:30. <\/em><\/strong>\u201cEvery car was loaded to the utmost capacity.\u201d<\/em> The Poughkeepsie Eagle<\/em> credited Mayor Eastman for the day\u2019s tremendous success. \u201cHe was ubiquitous and wherever enjoyment waned he appeared and started things lively again.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Both visiting aeronauts were commended for their \u201cmagnificent balloon entertainment<\/em>.\u201d In conclusion, the Eagle<\/em> claimed them, \u201cgreat favorites here, and we hope to see them again.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Herman Squire and Nellie Thurston married the next year and remained so until Herman\u2019s death in 1911. Nellie died in 1932 in Oneida County, New York, at the age of 85.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
