Bio and Links
Bio Photo I've been collecting family stories for many years and am finally at a place where the threads of the quilt have come together; ready for assembly and display. Honored by my oft' times 'crazy' family, I continue chasing 'white rabbits' and have made more than one error in my conclusions. I ask only that people let me know if a perceived error is discovered. I am always pleased to correct family records. It is as important for me as I trust it is for each of you.

WITH REGARD TO PHOTOGRAPHS I HAVE TAKEN AND POSTED HERE:

I decline to give permission to use my photos for resale, for profit, or to upload to a different web site.

CORRECTIONS / ADDITIONS / TRANSFERS

I will happily transfer ownership of memorials to family members provided the memorial is unrelated to my own genealogy research.

*** PLEASE send any requests for edits or transfers from the edit link on the memorial you want me to look at. Remember to include your F.A.G. member number. ***

Thank you for your understanding.

RE: James Henry Babcock
More info found: James died in July 1919 after jumping off a ship off the coast of Long Island, according to news articles. He had opened restaurants in Portland, San Francisco and elsewhere on the Pacific coast...at one point his R.I. relatives thought he died in the quake. Also, his draft registration is on Familysearch and has he and Louise living in Portland. DOB he gives is Jan. 18 1873. Still no info on the child.

RE: James H Babcock
Hi,

James married an Ethel Prince and was mentioned in some family obits as being "in the west". Louise was his second wife?

I'm on Ancestry, Babcock is one of my families. All the other children stayed in R.I. and are very easy to account for, since I live there. There was no burial for James?

Her marker was broke off, so sad to see things like that.

Toninis in Ceres
I took and posted the requested photo of Doris Tonini's stone in Ceres. She shares a stone with her husband Daniel Tonini. I created a memorial for him also and posted the photo. I would happily transfer management of his memorial to you if you like.

RE: Arthur Leroy Hartley
Shortly after the death of Clara May Washburn in 1929,the state decided to place the children in foster care. My friend has a picture of William Sr. and all of the children dressed to go to court. They all have white shirts and little shorts. The state took them after the hearing and in 1940, you can find some of them still in foster homes. That is why it is heartening to see William Sr. had the opportunity to pay for his namesake's funeral.

I just discovered that two of Clara Washburn Sherrard's children are also buried in Olivet Memorial Park. Her son, William Washburn, died July 10, 1945. His father, William Sr., paid for the funeral and had his buried in Olivet. According to one of her sons, Betty is also buried in Olivet.
