Sassaman DELONG of Ohio

Sassaman De Long was my great great grandfather. He was born on Feburary 16, 1859 in Berks County, PA and passed away on April 21, 1945 in Jackson, Stark, OH. He married Cora Etta Palmer on November 8, 1883. Together, they had 8 children:
Harry Ellis De Long
Anna Edna B De Long
Carrie Babe Mae De Long
Beatrice Beta De Long
Eddie Lucille De Long
Gladys Goldie De Long
Ervin Gale Todd De Long
Vernon Barney Raymond De Long
Sassaman worked a number of odd jobs as a laborer. Census records from 1880-1920s describe him as a "day laborer", "gardner", and "coal miner".
I have a photograph of Sassaman and Cora's tombstone; and I also have a wonderful photograph of Sassaman taken circa 1934. I would be more than happy to e-mail these to you.
Hope this helps.
