Notes:

Great Uncle Harry Sellers, grandmother's youngest brother, was the same age as her oldest son, Walter Lackey. Uncle Harry had the two sons, Darrow and Joe. Of course you know about Darrow living in Glendora, California. Since our daughter lives at San Diego, we have made several trips to California. On our first two trips we went up to Glendora to see Darrow Sellers. He has two sons. One of the sons was living in California and was with the U. S. Forestry Service. The other son was in the Navy and at that time was stationed in Washington, D. C. [Source: Letter written by Amos Clark Lackey addressed to David Randolph Sellers, dated May 23, 1966]

Notes:

Darrow Sellers' wife, Margaret, who taught in the Glendora City Schools for over forty years has one of the public grade schools named after her - The Margaret Sellers School. While in Darrow Sellers' office on our first visit, we met a Mrs. Swartz or a Mrs. Snyder. As I recall, her mother was Wolcott LaFetra's daughter. This daughter married an Armenian doctor and Mrs. Swartz had quite an olive-colored complexion. I recall, as a child, this lady with Cousin Emma LaFetra stopped at our home on their return from a trip to Europe.

Notes:

Joe grew up in California and married in California and brought his bride to Springfield, Ohio. Joe at one time was in the automobile business having the Hudson Agency in Springfield, Ohio. The last I knew of Joe, he was in Urbana, Ohio and he had an agency and was selling water softeners. I believe that he had two children - a son and a daughter. The daughter was married and lived in Springfield, Ohio and I did have her address at the time my daughter was in Wittenberg College in Springfield, Ohio.
