2) Henry Scott
3) Velma Lorraine
4) Doris Lucetta

|Photos| Marlin Hugh, who went by his middle name, was a World War I veteran. He worked on the railroad in Hornell, New York where he lived. Cecile was from Oregon Hill, Pennsylvania. The following story is courtesy of Hugh's niece, Doris Frank Campbell:

"Once, as a young man, someone gave Uncle Hugh a dollar to take his dog out and shoot it. Of course, Hugh brought it home to his mother, Cettie. When I was a toddler, at 330 South Broadway in Elmira, I remember Curly. He was a medium sized, black, curly-haired Water Spaniel. I was told I learned to walk by hanging on to his collar or coat somewhere. Later, but before we got my brother, Donald, when I was no more than three, I can remember standing in the front yard looking down the street and Uncle Hugh (whom at that time I called Gutten Hoo) would come walking toward me with a bag of marshmallows. He worked on the railroad (probably Erie) and would come to see us (his sister Madge and her family) when the train stopped in Elmira. My mother, Madge, had admonished him, "Don't bring that child any more chocolate." I have been told, having a watchful grandmother and like wise a watchful and particular mother, that my dress was changed several times a day. Apparently chocolate stains on a toddler's clothes were not welcome. Of course, with a live in grandmother, tales of Hugh's behavior were legendary. One of my favorites told over and over, was about when Hugh was taken to Keeneyville to visit his grandfather, Quartus. Even in my day, going to visit grandfather Greenfield in Keeneyville was special. Grandfather's house still stands, barely, on the main street of Keeneyville at Losey Creek bridge. Hugh was described as chubby, round and rolly-polly. 'The journey to Keeneyville was made by the family in a horse-drawn surrey with fringe on top' (my mother Madge's memory). It was 18 miles and took all day. Aunt Chloe Palmer (I think Quartus' sister-in-law) kept immaculate house and grandfather's yard was like green velvet. Facilities were at the back of the house; a privy several yards distant. This privy supported a mud wasps nest, which seemed to bother no one and certainly no one bothered it. Quartus went out to the privy and Hugh, seeing him, followed. Giving grandfather a few minutes to establish himself, Hugh sneaked up and locked the door. All privies had an outside hook and eye. Grandfather, scared out of his mind of bees and wasps (as are some of his progeny), began to shout 'Let me out of here, let me out of here'. He was never given to profanity, but he lost his cool and the air was blue. It was said of Quartus that if he sneezed in Keeneyville, he could be heard in Wellsboro. Imagine his yelling strength. While the yelling was going on, Hugh was rolling in the yard, bowled over in hilarity and laughter, holding his sides. Aunt Chloe came out and let grandfather out. It seemed that Hugh was the only one who could trick Quartus and get away with it. Hugh and my mother were close in age. He was disruptive in class, so mutch so, he was sent home much to Madge's embarrassment. Mom said he was such a devil, that even when not guilty of some misdemeanor (like putting chicken feet in a girl's desk), he got blamed for it. The teacher would send Hugh home. The weather must have been mild, Hugh would get himself a job at the livery stable, then drive the team and wagon up the street outside the school and whistle. Many times my mother wished the floor would open up and swallow her. We didn't have radio or television as I grew up, but I had grandmother Cettie. My memories of her would fill a book."
(Hopefully her memories will, as Doris is currently (April 1996) trying to write one.)

Hugh is buried in the cemetery behind his daughter Velma's home on Old Almond Road in Hornell, New York.
