1895 Minor Howard Livingston

Born: Apr. 12, 1895 at Windsor, Broome County, NY Died: Oct. 15, 1971 at Montrose, Susquehanna County, PA He is buried at Lanesboro Cemetery, Lanesboro, Susquehanna Co., PA. His father was 1857 Myron James Livingston. His mother was 1866 Caroline Lucretia Burhyte. He was married Oct. 25, 1916 to Ada Teale, place unknown. She was born in 1897 and died in 1927, age 30. Minor and Ada had two children: 1917 Ruth Livingston b. Oct. 3, 1917 1920 Inez Livingston b. Jul. 31, 1920 After Ada's death, Minor was married on Apr. 3, 1931 to (1908) Elizabeth Hallstead, place of marriage unknown. Minor and Elizabeth had at least one child together: 1933 James Henry "Hank" Livingston (he died in 1979) It is not known for certain if Minor is shown in the family photo above; the photo seems to be from about 1909 or 1910, and a piece of it was cut out by someone, for reasons uknown. I believe that Minor is missing from this photo, but that may be wrong. Minor is shown in this photo of his siblings, taken in 1950, probably in Harpursville, NY or Colesville, NY. Minor is the man standing at back, in front of the doorway, with his head tilted to one side. He would be 55 years old in this photo. Here is a link to a 1918 reunion photo, showing many members of the Livingston, Burhyte and other families. Minor may also be shown here; we don't know. If he is, he is likely one of the two men at far left in the back row. Minor was a (junior) partner with this brother Forrest Livingston in the Binghamton Printing Company. In family photos, he is usually seen standing near Forrest, and in later years, with his head tilted to one side, as though he had had polio or a stroke - but perhaps this was simply a personal tic of his, we don't know.
