Source 1: William H Worden is my 2gr-grandfather. He was born in Paris NY on Jan 19, 1844 and died in Cleveland OH on Feb 27, 1905. Nellie was his second wife. His first wife was Emma J. (Bass) Worden-Hill-Crandall, 1851-1945, a native of Brookfield NY. They had two sons, Fred and Lynn A. Worden, my gr-grandfather. I have newspaper clippings and photos of the Wordens. I do not know if he had children with Nellie but I do know that he and Emma separated in 1888, when he was 44 years old. wthomsjr@gmail.com
