The children are: 1. Nathan Hiram - I think he was named for both his grandfathers. He goes by 'Hiram'. Hiram is an engineer (retired not too long ago), and I believe he was born June 8, 1944. He has a lot of interests. Hiram and his wife (Emily) live in Texas. They have 3 married children. 2. Stanley Cole - Still lives in Live Oak, Florida, if I'm not mistaken. He once owned a jewelry store, but I don't know if he still does. 3. Marilyn - Lives in the Virgin Islands with her husband, John, and daughter. She and John are both veteranarians; Marilyn specializes in birds. 4. Teresa - Lives in Live Oak with her family. She probably still works in a nursing home there; Teresa took care of her mother (Ada) until her death last year. 5. John - I believe that John still lives in Live Oak too. I'm not certain if he took over the family farm, or what. (If I remember correctly, either Teresa or John had a twin, who did not live long after birth.) I may have email addresses for all of them. I would guess that Hiram and Teresa would be especially interested in telling you about the family. Over the past 20 years I've seen Hiram several times and their mother a few times, but I've not seen Hiram's brothers and sisters since my mother and I visited them in Florida years ago. Last fall they were all in Alfred for their mother's funeral, which I wanted very much to attend, but unfortunately my plans had to be canceled.

John,
I'm trying to answer your messages one at a time, to avoid my getting confused. (That may happen all too easily). I received two messages from Bobby also, which was nice. Thank you! I have been forwarding your messages to Charlotte Harris (Rex Spring's granddaughter, as I believe I mentioned before), so don't be surprised if you hear from Charlotte.
My grandmother was born 26 Oct 1867 in New York City ( I always heard it was at Ellis Island). My grandfather was born 8 Jan 1869 in England. My grandfather was known as Nathan Saunders; I believe I picked up the other names for him from a copy of a birth certificate I sent to England for ~ 35 years ago. He and Agnes Clara Spring had 3 children.
Briefly:
1) Clara Agnes (yes, that name again) Wakefield - born 5 May 1901 (one child)
2) Stanley Spring Saunders - born 1 July 1904 (5 living children)
*3) Harriet Saunders Garden - born 25 Jan 1907
I am one of Harriet Garden's 3 children. I went back to my maiden name a few years ago. (How confusing is that!) My parents met when my mother was teaching high school art in Niagara Falls and my father was a young army officer. They were married 15 Oct 1937.
My Aunt Clara died (of cancer) shortly after we went to Germany in Feb 1950. I have the date of her death as 16 Apr 1950. I don't remember exactly when Stanley died, but one of these days I'll look it up. My mother died in Salinas, Monterey County, California - 23 Feb 1997. They were all very close.
I'll fill in more information about Stanley's children another time. The three youngest live in Florida, the oldest (Hiram) is in Texas and Marilyn lives in the Virgin Islands. Clara's son is Irving Wakefield, who I'm quite certain still lives in the Alfred-Almond area.
In answer to a previous question, my grandmother died 12 Dec 1962 in Hornell, Steuben (?) County and was buried in Alfred 16 Dec 1962. My grandfather died in Hornell 26 June 1947 and was also buried in Alfred 28 June 1947. I wasn't very old at the time, but I remember that; he always seemed like such a kind, quiet man. If I remember correctly my grandparents gravestones have the birth dates switched, which is something my grandmother did, since she was of the opinion that the man should be older than his wife.
There's more, as always, so until later. . . .Carol
