His first wife died in childbirth with their first child and he didn’t remarry until his fifties. His second wife, my paternal grandmother, was born in 1895. I never met him, he died at age 90 before I was born.
Wow, my grandma was born 1895 too.
I met both of them but poor grandma died early, when I was only 5 or so. Being in Maine we rarely went up and I only vaguely remember her. My gramps, though, was so sweet and active until he died at 98. So I knew him pretty well, and was about 18 when he died.
