Mother: Mary Katherine (Fletcher) Bellomy
------------------------------------------------------
Rufus was a building contractor. He did houses and commercial buildings and his wife Esther kept the books for the family business.
------------------------------------------------------
Obituary reads: "Rufus W. Bellamy, 99, Chillicothe, died Friday, Sept. 12, 2003, at Indian Hills Retirement Village, Chillicothe. He was born Sept. 18, 1903 in Gate City, Va. He lived most of his life in Livingston County. Graveside service and burial: 10 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 16, at Resthaven Cemetery, Chillicothe. There is no scheduled family visitation. Friends may call from 12 Noon until 9 p.m. today, at Lindley Funeral Home, Chillicothe."
Rufus was married (6 Dec 1928) to Esther Elizabeth Hill Bellamy for 70 years. He was married previously to May V. Norcross who died during childbirth along with their infant daughter at the age of 22. Esther and Rufus had no children.
Note: There is a question regarding the spelling of the name "BELLOMY" as Esther's family always knew the couple as "BELLAMY." However, I have entered their name as "Bellomy" due to spelling on Social Security Death Index records, other family memorials, and marker.
