Son of Benjamin Corwin and Betsey Chapin.. Married 1878 Carrie Specht... 2 sons...Carrie died suddenly in 1886.. Both sons went to live with relatives... From what is on line it seems Frank died by train... His death notice or certificate may say other wise? Parts of his body were found on the tracks.. It is not clear if this was an accident.. Body was ided by a pocket watch that was a family heirloom... It is with in reason that he was buried with his wife or parents.. Exact place is unclear.. Youngest son settled in Ohio and is buried there.. Oldest son is also possibly buried here.. He joined up to serve in the Spanish War, but spent most of his time in Havana(?) sick in hospital .. He died in Olean in 1945.. His widow lived until 1969 and burial indicates this cemetery... That is unclear as well
