Hi Maud, Mertice was born 3 June 1905 in Auburn. The SSDI has her deathdate as March 1982. The proximity of deathdates between her and Silas may or may not be meaningful. Since I live in California, I don't know how much I can help with Cayuga County research past what I can find on the net. I don't know where Mertice is buried. It is possible, they could be buried in Soule Cemetery in Sennett, NY, but that is a guess. However, it's an educated guess. Mertice's parents Charles and Josephine (BERRY) CHAPPEL are buried there, as are her brother Eugene C. (or Charles Eugene) CHAPPEL (1900-1970) and her sister Gertrude Arlene (CHAPPEL) TABER (1902-2002) and their spouses. Nor do I know where Mertice's younger sister Mary Elizabeth "Betty" (CHAPPEL) LANGHAM (1911-2002) is buried. I don't know if there were any children. Mertice was living with her parents at the time of the 1930 Census. However, the name Silas gives me something new to work on.

Hello Bill. Thank you for your information - I am working on that at the moment. In my research I have come across a newspaper insertion regarding the death of William R. Taber in California in June 1946. You may already have this but if not I would be happy to send on to you - if it is your family connection. Regards.

I don't know if William R. TABER fits or not. He might. Gertrude CHAPPEL's husband was Howard K. TABER (1904-1986). His parents appear to be (from the 1910 Census in Cato, Cayuga, NY) John (age 35) and Lucy (age 28) TABER. They had one son Kenneth C. (1937-2003) The CA Death Records give William R. TABER's birth date as 13 February 1866 in New York State and his death date as 31 May 1946 in Los Angeles County, CA. His mother's maiden name was BEATTY. His SSN indicates he was living in California when he applied. The 1900 Census in Auburn lists a William TABER in Auburn ward 9 (ED 19, p3A) born Feb 1867, with wife Elizabeth, daughter Mattie, and sons Willie, Leslie, Benjamin, Loyd, and Ronald. He is listed as an engineer. Elizabeth, born in NY to parents born in England, is listed as having had 7 children, 6 of whom were living at the Census date.

From Syracuse Herald-Journal, Saturday, 20 March 1952 Mrs. Chappel Funeral Monday Auburn - Services for Mrs. Josephine Berry CHAPPEL, 20 Camp st., widow of Charles H. CHAPPEL, who died yesterday, will be at 2 P.M. Monday in Langham's Funeral Home with the Rev. Arthur J. MARKLEY, pastor of First Church of Christ, officating. Burial will be in Soule Cemetery. Mrs. CHAPPEL was born in Sennett and has spent most of her life in Auburn. She was a member of First Church. Surviving are three daughters Mrs. Howard G. TABER and Mrs. S. Marshall MURDOCK, both of Auburn, and Mrs. Donald F. LANGHAM of Syracuse, a son C. Eugene CHAPPEL of Whitesboro, five sisters, Mrs. Fred T. BUNNELL of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., Mrs. Ira LAWSON, Mrs. Henry T. SHERMAN, Mrs. Percival CRUMBY, all of Auburn, and Mrs. John LEE of San Gabriel, Calif., two brothers Edward BERRY of Auburn and Benjamin BERRY of Union Springs. -------------------------- Josephine (BERRY) CHAPPEL was a 1st cousin of my grandmother Florence Frances (MARKS) HART. I find it very annoying that the given names of Josephine and Charles CHAPPEL's daughters as well as Josephine's sisters are totally lost in the husband's name. On the other hand, I got several names I didn't have before. As a result: daughters Gertrude Arlene (CHAPPEL) TABER Mertice Mildred (CHAPPEL) MURDOCK Mary Elizabeth "Betty" (CHAPPEL) LANGHAM sisters: Emma E. (BERRY) BUNNELL Mary A. (BERRY) LAWSON Bessie B. (BERRY) SHERMAN Edna (BERRY) CRUMBY (not 100% certain of this one, but Edna is the only sister that makes sense given Percy's SSDI information) Frances A. (BERRY) LEE Josephine was the 4th of 9 children, 7 of whom survived her. Her oldest sister Martha BERRY must have predeceased her. Bill
