• Notes

  THE BROWN GENEALOGY, Vol. II, 1915, by Cyrus Henry Brown, page 428. When seven years old, Charles removed with his parents to So.Bristol, NY, where the family lived for four years, then removing to WestBloomfield, NY was then considered "out West," and so colled in NewEngland. While living here Mr. Olmstead cast his first presidential vote,in 1844, for Henry Clay. In 1847 he bought land in East Bloomfield, wherehe settled, and five years later married, nine of his children being bornthere. In 1902 the aged couple went to live with their two unmarriedsons, Frank and John, and here in this home they passed the fifty-seventhanniversary of their marriage. By these records it will be seen thesechildren were slow to wander from their early home, the dearest place onearth to them.
