From Georgia Garnsey
Some years after Isabella died, Robert remarried a woman named Caroline whom my grandmother Rose (Rozella) loathed. Rose actually left home as soon as she was old enough (and her father had died) and I have the advertisement she took out for her "Children's Hair Cutting" business. Robert was buried next to Isabella in the Hoosick Falls cemetery and I have a photo of their graves somewhere in my files of the gravesite. The photo was obtained from a descendant of Albert Leith's.
