Ruth, Roy Barrows' niece, was killed at
age
16.
Wentworth
Avenue, Chicago
Lizzie Spawr Barrows had boardinghouses
at
6318-20-22
Wentworth Avenue at the beginning of the twentieth century. Lizzie's
nephew,
Roy, and his family lived there about 1920 and again about 1930. I have
found a couple of photos that appear to be taken from in front of their
house in 1907. Visit the Chicago
Daily News page of the Library of Congress American Memory
collection
and search for "6319 Wentworth" to see one view and for "West 63rd" and
"Wentworth" to see another.
History
of the Englewood Neighborhood of Chicago
The Barrows family lived at various
addresses
on Wentworth (near 63rd and 67th) and Yale from about 1900 to the 1930s.

Our Mayflower Connection and Famous
Relatives
Philip Delano, Jr. (above) was in the
line of
Philip Delano, Sr. > Jonathan Delano III > Jonathan Delano Jr.
> Lt. Jonathan
Delano > Phillippe de la Noye. Lt. Jonathan Delano married Mercy
Warren,
granddaughter of Mayflower passenger Richard Warren. Internet search
engines
will find many sites with information on these ancestors.
Famous descendants
of Phillipe de
la
Noye
Since Phillipe de la Noye is our ancestor on the Delano branch, his
descendants, including Franklin
Delano Roosevelt and Ulysses S Grant, are distant cousins of ours. We are also
related to Laura Ingalls Wilder
through
the Delanos, but the link I had for that relationship no longer works.
NOTE: I have removed my links to
ancestral
files at the LDS site because they don't work any more. However, you
should
be able to find ancestral files for Philip Delano and Rebecca Foote by
going to the LDS site and
searching
for their names.

I was sorry to learn of Jim's death, and
I hate to start losing members of our generation. Jim's obituary is at http://www.redlandsdailyfacts.com/news/ci_10401838.

I tried searching for Carley Porter
(Valentine Spawr's daughter Ruth's son) on Google again, and this time
I came across a photo
of him.
