    Notes:


    The only daughter that I recall, I believe her name was Gwendolyn, and I do not recall her married name; but her husband's given name was Quincy. The reason I can recall this so well is that in 1913 - the time of the Dayton flood - I went with Uncle Walter Lackey and Dad over to Dayton and we got as far as Ludlow Street at the Montgomery County, fairground. While there, we met Quincy, who was a traveling salesman. He had returned to Dayton and walking the streets. He could not get over to Riverdale where his family lived, and he was a very worried man. Later on, after the flood waters receded, we again went to Dayton and had to get a pass because everything was under Martial Law, and we drove over to Riverdale to his home. His family had survived the flood and water had reached up to the second story of their home and everything on the first floor was practically ruined.
