Notes

The Linder Quarterly Autumn 1985
In Washington. three more children were born ••• Robert Imler (b. 1875). Frank F. (b 1878). and Sarah M. (b. 1879). Tragedy struck the family in 1880 ••• four of the children died of diptheria on 12 October (William B. aged 14. Clarence aged 12. George aged 7, and Sarah aged 1). Two more died later in the month ••• John aged 11, on 22 October and Frank aged 2, on 29 October. Ten months later a baby girl, Jane, died on the same day she was born, 12 October 1881. The seven children were buried on the ranch and John had a marble stone erected with all their names and ages. The stone is still standing ••• now away out in the middle of a grain field. In 1984. three of John's descendants visited the graves and showed the present owners pictures of all the children ••• and the ranchers were as happy to meet the Linders as if they had been a part of their own family.
John and Martha Jane remained on the Goldendale ranch with their two surviving children. Lillie and Robert. On 12 September 1882 a son. James Jacob, was born and three years later, on 27 April 1885, Grace Lucille was born.
