Here is one of three nice little cards that came my way recently. The brothers were Charles Wesley, Joel Wellington, and William Delmar Griswold, all three listed as jewelers in the 1880 census at Avoca. The census for Hornellsville list their brother, George Washington as a grocery. I especially like the line "And a wagon constantly on the road." The two towns, in upstate Steuben County, are about 13 miles apart. Shame the boys didn't marry into my project. . . IP: Logged |
