Notes for Joseph Walter Benton
Joe was a very religious man and wrote hundreds of poems. He was a pleasant man.
Notes for Mary (Spouse 1)
I liked Mary. She moved to Rochester when we were first married to be near her daughter, Beverly.
She had been a hair dresser when young, lke Frances and was married first to Rar braden who died of cancer at a young age. They had a son, Raymond,and he drowned in a river out near Chester, Pa. where they were living.
She doted on Beverly and her grandchildren.
Charles took her to California to visit her sister, Mildred, when I first met hum, and he was supposed to stay ot there.
But he didn’t!!
