NOTES: I did not list a birth year for Israel because the year stated in his obituary does not match the number of years he lived.
Also his obituary differs from his wife Almira's obituary. She died in 1890.

"On Sunday last there occurred the death of one of the old and highly respected citizens of Cambridge, Israel Palmer, who came to Cambridge almost a half century ago.
He was well liked and respected by all who knew him and in his death, the community loses one of its oldest and best citizens.
He was born in Tioga County, Pennsylvania, April 12, 1911(?), and died June 18, 1899, age 85 years, 2 months and 6 days.
He was married to Almira Daily in 1841(?) and came to Cambridge in 1856(?).
To them were born eleven children(?), four girls and seven boys.
Seven of the children survive him:
Charles E.;
George H. (Jan. 1, 1849 - June 27, 1915);
Alanson;
Eugene A.;
John V.;
Ellen L. Talbot;
and
Esther L. Woodard"

A son Clarence died November 20, 1887.
Also there was a son who was born in 1869 and died August 15, 1871.
