I didn't arrive in time to accomplish all I had planned to do, but I did have time to discover some further information. I had mentioned previously the death dates of William F and Frances and their 2 sons Frank and William R, and their son-in-law William TAYLOR. These were obtained from their Death Certificates. You can find Ohio Death Certificates from 1908 through 1953 online at this site: http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html?datestamp=1196875127453#start Clicking on the map of North America will open a new window where you'll need to scroll about halfway down the page. Images of the actual Death Certificates can be downloaded free. The Trumbull County Cemetery Inscriptions show the entire Thomas family is buried at the Niles Union Cemetery. This agrees with the information on all the Death Certificates. Information and GPS co-ordinates for the cemetery are here: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=cr&CRid=42415&CScn=Niles&CScntry=4&CSst=37&CScnty=2117& There are 8 burials (these are NOT listed on Find-A-Grave): William F, Frances, Anna E, Helena and husband William TAYLOR, William R, Frank H, and a nephew G Edgar THOMAS. Due to time constraints I was able to get only 5 of the obituaries: Anna E THOMAS DAVIES (d. 2 Nov., 1893, age 26); Frank Hooper THOMAS (d. 19 Aug., 1910, age 26); Frances Hooper ADAMS THOMAS (d. 10 Mar., 1913, age 64); Prof. G Edgar THOMAS (d. 24 Dec., 1918, age 32); and Lena [sic] THOMAS TAYLOR (d. 10 May 1926, age 55). On my next visit I'll get the others. Lena's obituary says that "Her only surviving relative is her father...", so that would seem to settle the fact that there were no grandchildren of William and Francis. I have hard copies of the 5 obits from the microfilms, and will send them to you if you'll send me your mailing address. It would probably be best to do this off-list.
