Sharon,
I just now saw your reply to my message, I changed my e-mail address and wasn't notified. Sorry!
I am sure that we are talking about the same Calvin. I will tell you what I know and you can let me know what you think.
Soloman Calvin Walburn was born Jan 21, 1891 in Clearfield County, PA. He married Viola Clara Wank sometime before 1918. By 1920, they lived in Salamanca, NY. In the city directory of 1929, they were living at 256 Highland Ave. He was a fireman for the RR, I think B&O, but I'm not sure. Viola died on October 13, 1930 while visiting family in Fryburg, PA. She is buried there. I am still trying to find out what happened to all the children.
Calvin died Dec 16, 1954 in a RR accident in Salamanca. He is buried in Wildwood Cemetery.
I have a picture of him taken in the 1930s or 40s. It was sent to me by relatives. If you would like me to send it to you , send me your e-mail address. I am at [email protected] or [email protected].
