. Gilmer County records show no husband for Harriett but list grandson of
Decker Canfield as Jasper Lee
All this is very interesting.....Harriett never married and none of the
family ever could find out who the father was of Francis 'Frankie' Marion and
Jasper Lee. Harriett was their mother and she is buried in the Canfield
cemetery as well as Francis and Marella. Frances and Marella were my husband's
grandparents. They had:
Mary Jane..died as an infant 1895
Emsy Rozilla 1897
Lillie O'Dessa 1899
Mazie Evalena 1903
Isaac William 1906
Azalean Viola...living...mother in law 1909
Russell Rufus 1911
Ruth Corene..living 1913
The story is Harriett's picture hung in the parlor of Francis' home and
seemed nobody said anything about her. A daughter of Isaac's works in the court
house and she has tried to find anything about a marriage and there is
nothing and nobody seems to know who the father was to Francis or Jasper. I have
been to the Canfield cemetery and have a partical list of who is buried there.
Where did you get the book? I would love to purchase a copy of this book.
Thanks for all this info.........Nancy
