1890 Elwyn James Livingston

Born: Jan. 15, 1890 at Windsor, Broome County, NY

Died: Aug. 12, 1977 at Oxford, Chenango County, NY


His father was 1857 Myron James Livingston.

His mother was 1866 Caroline Lucretia Burhyte.


He was married Sep. 25, 1946 to Viola Cleveland.  They had three
children together:

  1948 Ralph Myron Livingston     b. Mar. 10, 1948
  1951 Hazel Mae Livingston       b. Dec. 19, 1951
  1956 Carl James Livingston      b. Oct. 27, 1956

We do not know for certain that the photo above right is actually
Elwyn, but there is reason to believe that this is him.  I think
there is a resemblance to other photos we have showing Elwyn. 

The year of this photo appears to be in the late 1940's, so this
may be his wedding day in 1946, however that is only a guess.

Viola Cleveland may have re-married to a man named "Dawley"; there
is a death recorded as "Viola Livingston Dawley" on Oct. 26, 1995
and I can find no record of a Viola Livingston except for the wife
of Forrest Myron Livingston, Viola Amelia Doolittle, who died in 1978.
Given that Elwyn was 56 years of age at the time of his wedding,
Viola would have been considerably younger than he, and so it would
not be surprising that she may have been widowed, and re-married.
