Walter Abson, son of Anthony and Mary Hardwick Abson, was born July 14, 1846 in Yorkshire, England, and came to America in 1851 on the sailing vessel Columbia, being six weeks crossing the Atlantic. He lived in New York City until he was fifteen years of age when the family moved to Coudersport. WALTER ABSON He learned the carpenter trade, became a contractor and built many of the houses now standing in Coudersport. He built his own home in 1875 and lived there all the rest of his life. He was married to Ella Wione Elliott, February 5, 1877. To this union were born four children: - Mrs. Edith Gustwick of Coudersport. - Mrs. Arline Farnsworth of Ulysses, - Leone, who died at the age of 11 years, and - son, Gleeford. In 1880 he joined Eulalia Lodge, No. 342, F. and A. M., and at the time of his death he was the oldest member of the lodge. Mrs. Abson died three years ago this month. For the last year and a half his grandson, Walter Gustwick, and his wife, have lived with him and have helped to make his last days happy ones. He died of heart failure at a little before five o'clock in the morning November 3. His death was very sudden and a great shock to everyone as he had been in the best of health. He worked until the very last day which was always one of his greatest desires and died without pain, as he had always hoped he would. Surviving him besides his three children are his two grandchildren, - Walter Gustwick and - Mrs. Wione Darrin of Coudersport; and great-grandchildren, - Patty Darrin and - Georgiana Gustwick. He was buried with the Masonic ceremony at Eulalia, cemetery. Rev. F. Frantz Snyder of the Episcopal Church officiating..

A wedding dinner was served at the home of the groom's grandmother, Mrs. Kate Crandall, at West Pike.

Brenda Kenealy Williams I wonder if Isabel's husband, John S. Montanye, is related back down the line to Emeline's father Albert. Isabel's maiden name was Bink. She lived to 95 and never had any children.

John Wetzel, I noticed a Clarence Kiehle in a number of these photos. Do you have any information on him? My grandmother was Kathryn Kiehle, and my mom would talk about her uncle Clare. Could they be one in the same?

John C Wetzel
Sounds like it. Clare (Clarence Abram Kiehle) was Sarah Johnson's 2nd husband. Do you know Larry Johnson? (apparently not in this group) He posted this in December 2018:
"Clarence Keihl (1882-1962) was my uncle Clair,
2nd husband of my Dad's sister Sarah Johnson Klice Kiehl (1896-1972, born at Watrous, PA, (Tioga County).
She and her first husband ran Klice's Corner Novelty Store on Buffalo St. in Olean for many years.
Her family came from Sweden in about 1894. Name changed from Johanson to Johnson. (go figger). Following the Swedish genealogy is always complicated because they changed their surnames every generation.
Here is a pic of him from about 1960. I don't know where this pic is from, but it's a keeper!)" He was born October 1882 or 1885 in Klacking, Ogemaw, Michigan. This is the photo Larry shared.

OLDEST MASON OF LOCAL BODY DEAD
Walter Abson Passes Away Very Suddenly at Advanced Age of 88 Years.
Walter Abson, son of Anthony and Mary Hardwick Abson, was born July 14, 1846 in Yorkshire, England, and came to America in 1851 on the sailing vessel Columbia, being six weeks crossing the Atlantic. He lived in New York City until he was fifteen years of age when the family moved to Coudersport.
WALTER ABSON
He learned the carpenter trade, became a contractor and built many of the houses now standing in Coudersport. He built his own home in 1875 and lived there all the rest of his life.
He was married to Ella Wione Elliott, February 5, 1877. To this union were born four children:
- Mrs. Edith Gustwick of Coudersport.
- Mrs. Arline Farnsworth of Ulysses,
- Leone, who died at the age of 11 years, and
- son, Gleeford.
In 1880 he joined Eulalia Lodge, No. 342, F. and A. M., and at the time of his death he was the oldest member of the lodge.
Mrs. Abson died three years ago this month.
For the last year and a half his grandson, Walter Gustwick, and his wife, have lived with him and have helped to make his last days happy ones.
He died of heart failure at a little before five o'clock in the morning November 3. His death was very sudden and a great shock to everyone as he had been in the best of health. He worked until the very last day which was always one of his greatest desires and died without pain, as he had always hoped he would.
Surviving him besides his three children are
his two grandchildren,
- Walter Gustwick and
- Mrs. Wione Darrin of Coudersport;
and great-grandchildren,
- Patty Darrin and
- Georgiana Gustwick.
He was buried with the Masonic ceremony at Eulalia, cemetery. Rev. F. Frantz Snyder of the Episcopal Church officiating..

PRETTY WEDDING SOLEMNIZED
A pretty wedding was solemnized last Saturday morning at 10:00 o'clock at St. Paul's Lutheran Church here when Miss Elizabeth Albert, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. Albert of Marysville, Pa., became the bride of Edwin Crandall, son of Mr. and Mrs. D. E. Crandall of Marysville, Pa., with Rev. John O. Woods, pastor, officiating. Mrs. John O. Woods presided at the organ and played several selections, including "Oh Promise Me," "I Love You Truly," wedding March from Lohengrin and Mendelssohn's Wedding March. The bride was very charming in a blue crepe dress and carried a beautiful bouquet of tea roses. Their attendants were
- Mrs. D. E. Crandall and
- Mrs. N. Albert of Marysville.
A wedding dinner was served at the home of the groom's grandmother, Mrs. Kate Crandall, at West Pike.
Mr. Crandall is a former resident of Coudersport, having graduated from the Coudersport Hign school in the class of 1930, and is now employed by the department of justice at Harrisburg. He is a nepnew of Mr. and Mrs Earl B. Crandall of this place.
----------
It's extremely rare for a public official to conclude that he is getting too high a salary. -
