My father always said there were two infant sons also.
Bessie Maude Torrence Moore is my great-grandmother. I have more info on some of this family if anyone is interested.
I have one question though - Does anyone know which Torrence married H. (always heard it stood for Hulda?) Alice Simpson? I thought it was James but unsure which James.
