The other members of the family were Elting Fowler Warner who mar- ried Josephine B. Thomson in 1864. William Penn Warner, an A. B. of Union College, who married Anna Richmond, daughter of B. P. Richmond of Nunda. Their daughter, Annie Richmond Warner married Charles E. French and is now a well known writer of books of fiction. She retains hier maiden name "Anna Warner", as her non de plume. preferring to be an American writer and not a "French" one. Their children. Charles Elting and Anna Hathaway French. were summer guests at the Richmond homestead during the last days of their grand parents. Richmond P. Warner is the brother of the authoress. Mrs. Anna Richmond was the first person to subscribe for the "Centennial History of Nunda."
L. B. WARNER
One of the men who came to Nunda village in 1848, though not a pioneer. came so long ago, remaining his lifetime, and was so closely related to all the interests of the town, that a history would be incomplete that did not mention our dry goods merchant. L. B. Warner. Interested in schools, and in every form of progress and prosperity, he stands out prominently as a man who had the con- fidence and esteein of every citizen of the town. He was in religious preference ? Presbyterian, and in politics a Democrat, but was the business advisor of people of every denomination, and during the war times was as loyal as the most ardent Republican.
We are glad to present to our readers his photographi that all may see the one business man of the town that was without an enemy and yet had. and ex- pressed freely opinions on every subject. His home, his store, and the goods he sold were immaculately neat and clean. In this Mrs. Warner deserves special mention also, for no family could excel this worthy couple in this particular. Their three children. Willie C .. Charles G. and Sophia. Mrs. Marshall Mc Duffie, are all living in California.

CABINET MAKERS
The successors of the Early Cabinet makers of the town and village, viz .: Henry C. Jones, Atwood & Co., Eben Wheelers ( whose chairs of 75 years ago. are still strong and good), J. Chapin, East Street, were D. M. Tuthill about 1849, and his employees who all became manufacturers, were his brother-in-law, Ed- win Wilcox ; Robert Dayton, Henry G. Tuthill, nephews; Robert Cree, and in 1851 Wilson Willard. J. F. Rider and C. F. Rider (all these became skilled workmen and most of them have had cabinet shops). E. Wilcox became a part- ner, R. Dayton manufactured wooden pumps : Robert Cree became a furniture dealer and undertaker, both the Riders had cabinet shops of their own, Henry G. Tuthill (Col. H. G. T.), Corning, N. Y., is a skilled architect, the only survivor of these workers in wood ; while Wilson Willard and sons have been the pro- prietors in this cabinet shop for many years, where the firm of Willard Bros. & Co. (elsewhere mentioned) have changed this enlarged plant into a whole- sale casket factory, with an electric plant attached, that is one of the chief industries of the village, as it has been for about 80 years.
THE WOODWORTH FAMILY
We have spoken of the mechanics that work in wood for there have been numerous cabinet shops since 1824. But of the mechanics who worked on iron and steel there are none that have been in business as long as the Woodworth family.
Charles R. Woodworth came from Georgetown, Madison County, to Nunda in 1849, and with him came James R .. his brother, and together they established the blacksmith business, they soon established a reputation as skilled workmen. especially in cutlery. Without special machinery, the knives they hammered out became in demand for household purposes, and they devoted much of their time to the manufacture and sale of these useful kitchen utensils. In 1863 Charles R. became a soldier and served in the 52nd N. Y. for a year, and during the battle of Spottsylvania received a wound, resulting in the loss of his left hand, after his muster out from service, he lived in Pitcher, N. Y., for ten years, then returned to Nunda where he began to manufacture cutlery with the aid of machinery. In 1886 his son Frederick E. who had become skilled in this business, purchased the business and plant of his father and has conducted the business since, employ- ing from ten to twenty hands.
The children of Charles R. Woodworth were all distinguished for some gift, that has rendered them in social life, helpful and interesting, most of the family have musical talent, some of a high order, Zula and Minnie especially, Sylvia a graduate of the Geneseo Normal has artistic talent of a high order, and Rose, the youngest of the household. has been a professional whistler, has few if any superiors, in that line. She has recently married. Clara was an expert in amateur theatricals. The sons are specialists in mechanical or electrical pur- suits.
The young family of Frederick and Cora Woodworth are already indispen- sible in public entertainments. The children are Amy Olga, Minnie May, Clay- ton D. and Frederick E., Jr. May their usefulness equal their ability.
Frederick E.'s plant is on a street by itself, once called Bennett Street. but as the Bennetts have not lived there for forty years and the Woodworths have lived there for many years, it seems the street should be named accordingly. George

C. W., an electrician ; Clarence A. W., expert machinist in good employ ; Albert J., chief electrician, Maryland Steel Works, Sparrows Point. None of the James Woodworth family live in the town. Doctor Helen Woodworth of Boston repre- sents the family, and she now resides in Boston and practices hier profession.
THE FAMILY OF HON. HIRAM ASHLEY
The older sons of Hon. Hiram Ashley, ex-Assemblyman, came to Nunda before he did. E. S. Ashley moved from Minden to Nunda, so he informed the writer, November 2, 1849, where he was a successful business man. In 1854, he bought out James Swain, druggist, his brother Gilbert Ashley, becoming a partner in the business. The father and the rest of the family came about this time and bought a fine place at the foot of East Street now known as Elmwood.
Gilbert married Miss Althea Spencer, and they settled on East Street near the family home. Like the other Ashley family, of pioneer days, Hiram Ashley had acquired a fine property, he was an elderly man when he came and only lived a few years. His other sons were Hiram and Edward, and they were for a num- ber of years prominent students in the schools taught by Principals Barrett, Evans, Miss Pettit and others. E. S. Ashley, who was a good judge of a horse, bought and sold many fine teams, and liked this better than the sale of drugs. He left Nunda for New York City March 25, 1866. just after the Civil War, where there were better customers for his finely matched steeds. He returned to Nunda in 1904, aged and feeble, and lived but a few years longer.
The younger sons sought health and wealth on a Colorado ranch and sought both successfully. They are now middle aged, and have much of the strength. vigor and energy their father displayed at their age, that made him a strong fac- tor in the civil life of his time, in his county.
1851
In 1851, the year before the fire destroyed the Empire Block, we may get something of a glimpse of our village by the changes in business circles and the newspaper advertisements. The live men always advertise, and the others do not have to.
Jeremiah A. Richardson, who had been in the mercantile business in the old Joslyn store for some years, offers his house on Union Street (Mass. St.) and his store for sale. His clerk and nephew by marriage, Walter B. Whit- comb, became the purchaser of both.
D. P. Bard, the singing school teacher, has a music store, and pianos etc .. are advertised. J. F. Penny tries to eary or "turn" a penny, by the sale of a new invention, the new patent screw bedsteads, for strange to say, until then bed- steads were being morticed together and then held in place by a bed cord that passed through holes, bored in a square 4x4 timber, with abundant room for odoriferous lodgers, besides the bed cord. G. F. Sadd, a very suggestive name. had a marble factory three doors west of Howell store, the block afterwards known as Holmes Hall. Dr. Parker, physician and surgeon, had, as a new comer. to advertise. William Houghton, No. 3 Merchants Row (East side of State Street ), had dry goods, etc., Peter Carter at No. 22 was an insurance agent. E. M. Brown, P. M., had boots and shoes, hats and caps and gents' furnishing goods in the Empire Block ( same site as the present postoffice ), while "Eldridge with his Daguerroetypes" invites the people to come and "see themselves as others see them."

1852
This year is one long to be remembered because so many things happened to keep it in remembrance. The Genesee Valley Canal had become an actuality in 1851, but the railroad that was to connect the town, with New York City and with Buffalo, and save long stage routes to Batavia or Canandaigua or Hornells- ville when the merchants and others had to go to those cities, was now a fact. There were no commercial travelers in those days, and twice a year all the mer- chants had to take a week or more and go to the city to buy summer or winter goods. Then Nunda Station, about three miles away, seemed very near. The barbecue at the Great High Bridge was also one of the events of the year.
The burning of the Union Block, a fine three story building on the site of the present postoffice and Wilcox store, was also one of the great events of the year. The Nunda Times, the village newspaper and its editor. N. T. Hackstaff, were lost to the village and though L. B. Warner quickly rebuilt, the fine block was lost forever. In our history of newspapers we give the extent of that loss. A map of Nunda town and village was published that year, but only those merchants and leading men are mentioned who bought the map. Mr. Fred Crowfoot of Sonyea, is the only owner of this map that the author knows of, and certainly the village did not compare at that time with what the Times tells of the business men that advertise in 1852.

THE WILLIS FULLER FAMILY FROM PIKE
The town of Pike has furnished Nunda with only about four or five citizens, Hon. Luther C. Peck, our first, last and only resident Congressman, Dr. C. C. Chafee, our most highly educated physician, and his wife, and recently Mr. Wil- lis Fuller and his cousin Mrs. Ellen Colegrove.
The lineage of the sons of Willis Fuller is, as far as pioneer history is con- cerned, extraordinary. It reaches back to the settlements of Canandaigua and Leicester to Horatio Jones, the Indian captive, and to Land Agent Gregg and Dr. Williams, brothers-in-law, and includes the Flints, Ellises, Griffiths, Stew- arts and nearly every family of pioneers in Pike when it was Nunda. The gen- eology brings out these facts.
Robert Flint, the first Member of Assembly, from Pike, married Hester, daughter of Horatio Jones. Their daughter Samantha Flint married an Ellis. She was old enough when she came from Cherry Valley to Pike, 1818, to remem- ber the journey. They lived on rye bread all the way with such game as they could shoot on the journey. Having arrived the mother sold the feathers from their only feather bed and bought wheat at Geneseo to sow, sold a string of gold beads and bought ten sheep, bought a cow of Mary Jamison at Gardeau, and then built a log enclosure to protect their stock from wolves.
Deborah Flint, a sister. attended the Middlebury Academy at Wyoming witli Luther C. Peck and his first wife, and became a teacher, married Orrin Fuller. son of Aaron Fuller, who settled on the Averill farm in ( Portage) Nunda, and was drowned in the Genesee River, while rafting lumber for a new house.
The wife of Aaron Fuller was Dradina, sister of Eli Griffith the pioneer of
628
1806, and first Supervisor (1809) of Nunda, the first soldier from the town to enlist and the first to die in the service 1812. After the death of Aaron Fuller the widow and her children returned to Pike and to her kindred.
Orrin Fuller married Deborah Flint. He seems to have inherited the martial spirit of the Griffiths of Revolutionary and 1812 heroism, and became successively an officer, holding five commissions from Governor DeWitt Clinton, the last one Lient. Colonel of the 204th N. Y. Militia. He was also the first postmaster of the present village of Lamont, and obtained the position from his friend, L. C. Peck, M. C. in 1839. The children of Orrin Fuller were Samantha Ann m. Will- ianı H. Rodgers of Herfordshire, England, who removed to California, 2, Jose- phine, who died at sixteen. 3, Samuel m. Elisa Callis of Matthews, C. H. Va. 4, James, District Attorney at New Orleans, two terms, died at Rio Janeiro, Brazil, in 1886. 5, Harrison H. m. Hattie Hyberd of Vermont. They have two children, Willis Orrin and Anna Louise, and reside at Shasta County, Califor- nia. 6, LaFayette, who died without issue. 7, Permellia, who died in childhood. 8. Willis H. Fuller, now of Nunda, born at Lamont, m. Julia G. Williams, eldest daughter of Colonel George Williams (Veteran of 1812-14). The family_now reside at Sunnyside, Gibbs Street (Gibbs mansion). Their children were recently married and reside at Ravenswood, the ancestral home of the Williams family. Willis Demert Fuller m. Eva Downing of Shasta, California, Orrin James m. Hazel Still of Buffalo, N. Y. They should be lovers of "Pioneer History" for they are of the lineage of four families of pioneers of four towns, Canandaigua, Leicester, Pike and Portage and connected with twice that number of pioneer families.
Samuel Flint, Jr., m. Elinor Lyon. Their daughter Ellen Jane Flint, a teacher of music, m. 1, Harrison Colegrove, 2, Nathan Colegrove, brothers. Ed- ward Colegrove. her son, m. Mamie Gillett. John Colegrove died at the age of seventeen. The Colegroves came from Hume to Nunda, and purchased the Ut- ley Spencer mansion on Massachusetts Street a few years since, and so another town of the original township is worthily represented here.
1858
In 1858 we again have a map of Nunda, and the business directory this year gives, merchants, L. B. Warner, W. B. Whitcomb, Isaac Bronson, W. Whitcomb, has also a banking house, Mrs. Lake has fancy goods and millinery. Grocers are Peter De Puy, J. II. Lamb : jewelry, C. W. Herrick and J.

The new railroad had some disadvantages. A thriving village was growing up at the station with large stores cutting off the southern trade from Grove, and since that time another village with three stores at Hunt, that secures at least half the trade from Portage and Granger.
In still more modern days the great department stores at Chicago and Phil- adelphia with their greater variety take away a very desirable class of trade. The better communications with Rochester by rail, gives that city from this town a large amount of trade, and still the stores of the village are well patronized, for the grocery trade, is not affected by proximity to the city.
As to store buildings we have more and better ones than the village had formerly, and we never see an empty one or a sign "to rent" or " for sale" in a store window. The stores in the Livingston Block and Union Block are as good as any in the county. There are one hundred more houses in the village than there were in 1852, and it is doubtful if there is one vacant one in the village.
The difference in population is not because we have less families, but we have much smaller families. Still the population does not diminish, over 200 children between 5 and 20 years of age are found in our village school.
