Note:
An announcement in the 3/22/1915 "Geneva Times" regarding the Surrogate Court proceedings is interesting. It stated: "Love M. Standish of South Bristol, who died on December 15th, cut off two of her (sic) sons with a dollar each and left the remainder of her (sic) $2000 estate to a third son, George T. Standish of South Bristol, who is also named as executor."
Robert C. and F. R. Standish of South Bristol are the other sons.
