B4 BURCH, Sylvester. Mrs. LQS writes that her grandmother Elvira was a sister of Sylvester and that she has a genealogy written around 1950 which she will share with us.
B4 BURCH. Correction: Our typing was in error. She was Elvira Burch Quaintance, not Quaint as given.
B6 STODDARD, Matilda. Mrs. FJ, writes that Matilda was buried in the Fentonville or Frewsburg Cemetery as her mother went to the funeral. She says that Elizabeth Hoag was the daughter of Amos and Susannah Hoag of the Hoag Road and they are buried in the Ashville Cemetery. There is a lot of data in the letter but we need to confer and ask some questions. Perhaps we will be able to give it in capsule form next mont.

We have searched Watts Flats, Niobe, Ashville, Panama (both), West Town Line Road and Blockville Cemeteries for graves of Dennis Stoddard and wife Elizabeth Hoag. Does anyone know where they are buried? Or have their death dates?

BUSHEE CEMETERY: Today we were given the names of two sisters who formerly lived on the Bloomer Road and who might have information for us. We also had a letter from Fredonia mentioning the Aspenwall family.
BUSHEE CEMETERY: May 31, 1969. ASPINWALL. There are also Aspinwalls in the Sherman Cemetery and some went to the Dakotas. I think it was Baker, North Dakota. The mother of my grandmother Belinda Stanton Ferguson was an Aspinwall girl. They came from New Lisbon, NY and Belinda is buried in the Sherman Cemetery. WGS. Fredonia.
