The place where she was born is right in town, opposite the Presbyterian

typical downtown building made of brick, newer than 1904, with stores on
street level and apartments above.

3) Oneonta Plains Cem. visit 5/5/2001 - photos taken of grave. Grandma is
buried in the WRIGHT family plot, NOTthe Sweet family plot.
Also visited the home she had built at 428 Main St. Itis still there,
2001, owned by George Monser, who tells me that he had purchased it from
the estate of Dr. Leroy House in 1968. Dr. House bought the house from
Judge Grant, who had bought it from Grandma and Grandpa. Dad had stopped
up several years ago and visited, at which time Mr. Monser gave him the
photo of the house taken in the 50's(?)/ He stated that the oak tree Dad
hadplanted by the garage as a child is now huge. I took new photos.
Deborah Sweet info:
Helen is buried in the WRIGHT family plot, in the same grave as her
beloved grandparents, Sophia Gibson and William Wright. Her parents
Madaline Southworth and William Gibson Wright, and her brother W. Clyde
Wright andhis wife Mildred E. Williams are on the other side of the

the main cem. road, on the right, after the entrance. There are two large
shrubs on either side. I was personally there when she was buried. As a

St., in the village of Unadilla in the
county of Otsego....dohereby certify that I did on this 18 day
of June 1924 at Unadilla, in the county
of Otsego....solemnize the rites of matrimony between Stephen
GilbertSweet of Milford in the county of Otsego....and
Helen Southworth Wright of Milford....in the presence of Reka de Bloom
and
Harold Sweet as witness... [Harold was Stephen's brother. I do
not know who the Minister was, ie., what denomination (poss.
Methodist or Presbyterian) or if they married in a church or in the
Minister's 'parlor'(likely), as the certificate is not that
specific. I do not know who Reka de Bloomwas, but she must
have been one of Grandma's friends whom she brought asher
witness/bridesmaid. I wonder if she could be in any of those
photos from Grandma's girlhood, or if it would be possible to
track the de Bloom family down to see if they have any photos to
compare.I also wonder if Grandma's parents approved of her
marriage. - d. sweet]

Research and source notes - Deborah Sweet:
Info fromObits, Madaline's notes, personal recollections:
Went to Westminister College,Pennsylvania
Farmed in Delaware Co., NY, near Milford/Milford Center - farm at
Goodyear Lake
He was a Sheriff of Otsego Co. for 3 years in the early 1930's.
According to Grandma Sweet (his daughter), he was so grossly overweight
that in order for him to be weighed by the doctor, he had to use the
scales at the feed store. [I am not sure if my recollection on this is
correct. It may have been her Grandfather William Southworth, Madaline's
father, who was soobese. Which may be the reason he died so young. I
remember her saying thathe (whichever one it was,) dropped dead
suddenly. D.Sweet]
Had something todo with the beginnings of IBM. Have not found any
mention of this anywhere though.
From the Delaware Co.NY Genealogy & History online site - Various records

Madaline's line gives us our MAYFLOWER lineage through the following
Mayflower Passengers, a total of six so far:
1) John ALDEN
2) MULLINS - Priscilla, and her parents William and Alice
The ALDEN - MULLINS line comes tous through the SOUTHWORTHS.
3) FULLER - Edward and his son Samuel who came onthe ship, and other son
Matthew, who came later. This line comes to us through the ROWLEY's (see
Ithamar Rowley, who is also one of 'our' Revolutionary War Veterans) and
it is a double line, secondly through Dimmis Gates's father Stephen
Gates, also a Rev. War Vet, who married Esther Fuller, a dau. of John
Fuller. I have just found the connection through these lines and have

shows her father to have been Augustus Hanor. Also shows mother's name as
ANNA Snyder, not Hannah, as itshows on her death cert.
Notes:
Research and source notes: Deborah Sweet -
1) 4/11/2001 - NYS Dept of Health,Albany does not have marriage record
for Ida Hanor and James W. Southworth, date range 1/1/1881 -
12/31/1881[Albany has no earlier records, I need to write next, the Town
and County Clerks]
I may resend under just William Southworth, as they didn't find any
James William record and resent for that under William. Though his dod is
1883, so may be no record anyway, under either name.If one turns up
under William, then I'll resend for marriage under William,although I
wonder if they didn't cross check before under Ida's name.

Place of Death: Town of Milford at Portlandville [there are two small

Date and Hour of Death: 16 April 1887, at about 1 am.; Joels? Jack?
Thosna?, M.D. of Portlandville, NY, signed 4/17/1887, certifies he
attended deceased from December 1885 to April 1887, last seen 4/15/1887,
died on 4/17/1887 about 1:00 am.; Chief and determining Cause of Death:
Disease of the heart, 10 year duration, and Lungs, 6 year or more
duration, of long standing.; No burial information is given on the
document - permit, date, place, undertaker unknown. [My guess is that he
was buried by the third day, so I enteredthat as date of burial. Also
that he was probably buried in Portlandville, as his wife Louisa was
shown to have been buried there, although Cemetery nameis unknown. Her
undertaker was A. Cronk of Milford. Since she died only three years
later, it may be that it is the same one who took care of Martin.]
