Note: All four children born to Horace and Nellie, upon her death in 1913, were sent to live with Nellie's parents,Arthur M. Sherman and wife Diantha Ball, in Michigan. I have no idea if they were adopted by their grandparents, but many of them assumed the last name Sherman. Horace was born in 1879. He was the son of Hiram Palmatier and Frances Eaton. He passed away in 1946.
