Notes:

Letter in file from J. A. Arbogast dated 14 Aug 1923 to his cousin May Henry
Jackson in Chicago. J. A. was an attorney at Akron, OH, for some time. He
was living at Larew, WV, in 1923 operating The Heather Run Coal Co. there in
Preston County. He gave up his law practice due to his health in about 1913,
moved to WV to work outside. His wife, unnamed, died about 1908, he was still a
widower in 1923. He remembers his grandfather, Cornelius, quite well, and
recalls his talking about moving to OH from VA in a covered wagon. He lists
the living children of Allen as follows: Johnson A.; Etna Pence, 123 Arch St.,
Akron, OH; Charles; Rosewood, OH, Dora (last name not clear-looks like Stella)
Pomona, CA; and, Roland I, St. Louis. J. A's. children are as shown using
Arbogast for his wife's last name until we know her correct name.

Have assumed this J.A. Arbogast is Allen Johnson because his letter
gives addresses for all the other living children. Allen J. in 1880 census, so
he probably switched his two first names to Johnson Allen Arbogast, or J. A.

Additional info. from Wilma Guthrie with ref. to Walter W. Martin, Sidney,
OH., includes spouse and family.
