Biography

Charles Tiffany Litchfield was born 17 Mar 1845 in Brooklyn, New York. He was the second child of Electus Backus Litchfield and Hannah Maria Randall Breed ^[1].

A census record of 1875 lists both Charles (son) and Carrie Litchfield (daughter-in-law) in the household of Charles's father ^[2]. A linked online memorial site posits that a grave for Carrie H. Litchfield (who died in 1890) is present in Jerusalem Cemetery, Feura Bush, Albany County, New York ^[3], however no grave marker is depicted and no sourcing is put forth. Whereas Charles may have married Carrie H., her maiden surname likely was not Litchfield.

The cited census record describes Charles as an inventor.

Charles Tiffany Litchfield died in September 1919, probably in Brooklyn. His grave is represented to be in Green-Wood Cemetery, Brooklyn, Kings County (Brooklyn), New York, USA ^[4]. No grave marker is depicted.
