    2. Bill & Judy Cuyle
    3. I have this obituary. I'd be glad to send a copy to anyone who wants it. The funeral of George Elijah Congdon, who died Thursday, November 27, at the family home in Jacksonville, will be held at 2:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon, November 30, at the Church of the Epiphany in Trumansburg. Mr. Congdon was long prominent in fire insurance circles in New York State, and son of the late Dr. Lyman Allen Congdon and Marcia Goodwin Congdon. He was a graduate of Union College and was associated with the Fire Association of Philadelhia for the past 30 years. The Goodwin and Congdon families (Goodwin's Point) were early settlers in Tompkins County. Mr. Congdon was a life-long member of the Church of Epiphany in Trumansburg; was senior warden and highly respected and beloved by all. Surviving are his wife, Pauline Earley Congeon; two daughters, Mrs. Henry B. Denison of Syracuse and Mrs. George B. Thummel of Omaha, Neb.; two sons, Lyman and George, jr., and three grandchildren. [There is no year on this obituary, but there is a Thursday, November 27, 1930. The other obituaries on this page of the scrapbook are from 1928 to 1932.]
