In Reply to: Abram L. ROCKWELL/Mary "Mame" "Mamie" Isabella PHINNEY - BRADFORD CO., PA by Lynne Howell of 1312

I am searching for further information regarding Lynn Rockwell, b. 22 (Jan/Jun?) 1897 in Columbia Twp., Bradford Co., PA, s/o Abram L. and Mary I. Phinney Rockwell.

Lynn and his mother can be found in the 1910 Federal Census for Canton Borough, Bradford Co., PA, in the household of his grandfather, Allen M. Phinney.

Allen is listed as Allen M. Phinney, head of household, 69 years old, white, male, widower, married once, b. PA, parents b. PA.

Mary is listed as Mame (her nickname) Rockwell, daughter, 43 yrs. old, white, female, widow, married once, 4 live births w/4 living children, b. PA, parents b. PA.

Lynn is listed as Lynn Rockwell, grandson, white, male, single, b. PA, parents b. PA.

Also listed in the household is Mary W. Clark, sister-in-law of Allen M. Phinney, age 58, single, b. PA, parents b. PA.

Lynn is found in the 1920 Federal Census for the 1st Ward of Canton Borough, Bradford Co., PA, living on Center St.:

Lynn Rockwell, head of household, white, male, age 23, married, b. PA, parents b. PA, railroad laborer.

Sadie (Champney) Rockwell (Tarr), wife, white, female, age 19, b. PA, parents b. PA.

Beitrix Rockwell (Beatrice Eloise Rockwell Crandall), daughter, white, female, age 1, b. PA, parents b. PA (b. 19 Sep 1918; d. 6 Jan 1957).

Sadie M. Champney (b. 21 Oct 1900; 18 Aug 1993) was the d/o Peter and Etta Herman Champney of Union Twp., Tioga Co., PA. She had one sister, Jennie Champney (Freeman).

Lynn and Sadie had two daughters, Beatrice Eloise Rockwell (Crandall) and Lucile Rockwell (White)(b. 17 Aug 1921; d. 3 Jul 2001). Both Beatrice and Lucile were born in Canton.

Beatrice Rockwell Crandall served in the USN during WW II.

Lucile m. Robert "Bob" White on 22 Sep 1951 in Canton. They had three children: David White (deceased); Richard White; and Wendy White (Lepper).

Sadie, George, Beatrice, Lucile, and Bob are buried in Bradford Co. Memorial Park, Burlington Twp., Bradford Co., PA.

I attended school with Lucille Rockwell White's son, Richie, and Wendy's husband, Dann Lepper.

I would like more information regarding Lynn Rockwell. Where Lynn and Sadie divorced? Did he remarry? Did he have another family? When did Lynn die? Where is he buried?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Lynne B. Howell
