Samuel Solomon Alspaugh and Alma Viola Stuckey Alspaugh had an arranged marriage. They were married 10 DEC 1890 in Greencastle, Fairfield, Ohio. They were the parents of eight children, four of whom died in infancy. Otto died of a fever and my father Ray (also ill with the fever) did not know that Otto had died until after Otto had been buried. Baby Dorothy died at aged six months in 1900. Grown children were Ray Paul Alspaugh, Leoto (married Gailey Geer), Kenneth Russell Alspaugh, and Viola (married Walter Wagner). I did not know my grandparents but I share Sammy's caffeine "addiction" and love of dogs and Alma's love of cats. Alma was noted for her baking ability, especially hickory nut cake. I grew up and still live on the property where Sammy and Alma lived.
Although Alma was tall and slender in her youth, she became quite heavy.
Grandma is in the front row, wearing a flowered dress. Her son Kenny, daughters Viola and Leota and granddaughter Alice Jane are all marked in the photo, and all on findagrave.
