A happy good morning from Massachusetts. Searching for anyone who may have information on the AINSWORTH Family.... Levin Autor AINSWORTH [my uncle] b. Jan 24-1872............looking for place of birth? d. 1953.......................I believe in Mountainair, Torrance Co NM? He was issued a 320 acre parcel of homesteaded land on May 26-1920 in Torrance County New Mexico near Mountainair. He was the son of: Hyram & Matilda (House) AINSWORTH......no other info Married July 2-1911 to: Julie Belle ROBERSON b. Aug 21-1879 Duffau, Erath Co Tx. d. Mar 11-1970 Mountainair, Torrance Co NM daughter of: Thomas Henry & Matilda Ellen (Raney) ROBERSON I have a handwritten letter from Matilda Ainsworth that was postmarked Nov 10-1924 from Cisco Tx. Addressed to Mr. L.A. Ainsworth, Mountainair New Mexico. At the top of the letter was listed "Ranger Texas" and dated July 6-1924....... The letter was mailed in Cisco Tx., 25 miles west of Ranger, 4 months +4 days after it was written. In it Matilda said that she would be 86 years old on the 29th of Oct 1924, which means that she was born sometime in 1838? She also mentioned that she hadn't seen Julie and Levin for over 10 years. We believe that they were one of the wagons that were with my grandparents who arrived in Torrance County New Mexico about 1911 If anyone is interested in reading the letter, e-mail me direct and I can down-load you a copy that I have transcribe exactly as it was written. e-mail address: freorden@aol.com Thanks for reading, Freddie B.
