Abbie Corlies, George D. Corlies, Will Corlies, Susan Corlies Van Marter
Abbie Corlies was born in Meadville, PA, on 2/28/1861.Her father was George D. Corlies.Abbie's mother, Elizabeth, was killed in the colapse of a Masonic Lodge building.She was visiting in the house next door when the storm caused a wall to colapse on the house next door.
Abbie had a brother and sister, Will and Susan Corlies Van Marter.
Abbie married Reginald Heber Tubbs.Reginald changed his name in 1890 to Reginald Heber.Reg and Abbie moved to Columbus, Ohio in order to be closer to her father.
Abbie's uncle Benjamin Corlies, lived in Pelham Manor, New York.He was wealthy.I have found a listing for a Benjamin Corlies that shows he was a stationer.I was told he was in the banking/investment business dba Corlies and Macy.
I am trying to find out where the mother was killed.I have a newspaper clipping that says she was visiting in the house of H. S. Glaze ant that she had a long-time-friend named Dr. Kirkup.
Does anyone have any kind of information that would help me piece this together?
