Clyde W. Clark in about 1919). She was the daughter of Henry Phillips (b. 1862, d. 1934) and Elida Root (b. approx 1872, d. 1950). All lived most of their lives in either Chataqua or Cattaragus counties, living in East Otto area. I believe that Henry and Elida are buried in North Otto. The Census records list an "Arminta Root" as part of Henry and Elida household, and given the age I am assuming it was Elida's mother. Any information you have about the Root family would be appreciated. Thomas Clark Sacramento, California Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
