I have Rexford as part of my family this is what I know for sure~ Jesse J Rexford was a well known farmer and resided on the Pine Creek Rd.~ He was married to MaryAnn Lynch, they had 6 children, ages from 13yrs to 2yrs~ Helen,Harry,Winfred,Walter,Alice,and Ruth.~ He was working in the woods At Asaph Run with his brother, Delos,Charles and his nephew Leon (son of Delos Rexford) when a tree fell on him killing him instantly~ Jesse was 58yrs old at the time of his death (6-22-1905) Jesse was the son of the late David Rexford ~ He left three brothers, Delos,William,and Charles and two sisters Mrs William Larrison and Mrs.R.C Kelts.
Now, Jesse wife MaryAnn later married Frank Stafford and had girl Jessie and boy Carlton.Mary Ann Stafford past at the age of 68.At her home in Catlin Hollow,she is buried in Rexford.
