Family of Ellsworth WALLING and Mary (Libbie) Elizabeth MCGOWAN

Ellsworth WALLING b. 1865 Apr219 at New York219. d. 1902 Jan 135848 at Elmira Heights, NY5848. bd. Horseheads, NY5848.
Mary (Libbie) Elizabeth MCGOWAN b. 1867~1728 at New York City, NY1728. d. 1941 Jan 25272 at Elmira, NY5272.

Married219 1889~219 at prob New York. In 1900, Elsworth and Mary E Walling appear219 as husband and wife, married 11 years. Other information indicates Mary E Walling was Mary E McGowan.

In 1900, Ellsworth's mother, Celista Walling, resided219 with Ellsworth's family. From her name and birthdate (May 1836), one finds the 1880 census659 for Bradford, NY, with Peter Walling, wife Celista, and son Ellsworth.

The obituary5851 for Peter Walling confirms Ellsworth's parentage, as that obituary mentions Ellsworth as the only suriving child of Peter Walling and Celestia Raplee.

On 6 May 1916, a marriage license1728 was issued in Elmira, Chemung Co., NY, for the marriage of Peter Bennett and Mary E Walling. Mary was a resident of Elmira, age 48, born NY City, the daughter of Edward McGowan and Sarah Dring; it was Mary's second marriage, and her former husband was dead.

Her first marriage to Ellsworth Walling is assumed as follows: in 1910, Florence H Walling, age 12, "grand daughter," appears{super 1132} in the household of Edward and Sarah J McGowan, Mary McGowan's parents; Florence Walling, born Apr 1897, appears219 in 1900, in the household of Elsworth and (wife) Mary E Walling. Ellsworth's wife was born Apr 1867. Ellsworth Walling died5848 Jan 13, 1902. From that information, and the appearance of Elizabeth M Walling in the 1905 and 1910 censuses without a spouse evident, it is assumed Ellsworth Walling was Mary's first husband.

The 1931 obituary5556 of Frank McGowan mentions surviving niece, Mrs Peter Bennett of Elmira.

Child 2. Hazel

Hazel Lillian Walling died5856 at the age of 14 years, after a long illness. She was survived by her mother, Mrs Mary Elizabeth Walling, and two sisters, May and Florence.
