Unknown reported:
Thurber R. Chatfield worked perhaps for Sperry and Barns Meat Packing Company in New Haven Ct. (not sure of the correct spelling of Meat Packing Corp.) Do know that he, Thurber R. CHATFIELD, was born April 22nd 1875 in Killingworth Connecticut. He married October 1st 1902 in Killingworth Connecticut his first wife Inez Jillson Cowie. She was born May 31st 1878 in Webster Massachusetts. She died January 26th 1927 in Washington Connecticut. He then married not so soon after my grandmother Florence T. Baker Chatfield. I don't know who Thurber's parents were and who Florences parents were? I do know that Florence came from the Fall River, Massachusetts area. Can you help me find their parents?
