  Notes	"Supplement to Sprague Families in America", by Dr. Warren Vincent Sprague, 1940, page 55.      Estelle (Sprague) Vinson resided at Holmes, NY. From Elaine S. Vinson, correspondent.      The name of the daughter of Ferris J. Sprague and wife of Rev. George S. Vinson was incorrectly entered in "Sprague Families in America" (see above).  Her name was Eunice Estella Sprague.  She disliked the name Eunice and used E. Estella, which is how her marriage certificate and obituary read. From William G. Sprague, correspondent, note of September 20, 2013 MRS. GEORGE VINSON DIES EARLY SUNDAY FUNERAL HELD ON WEDNESDAY Native of Ludingtonville and Wife of Shenandoah Baptist Pastor Stricken Suddenly. Becoming ill Saturday night with what she believed to be indigestion, Mrs. E. Estella Vinson, 64, wife of the Rev. George S. Vinson who is pastor of the Bethel Baptist Church, Shenandoah, died unexpectedly at her home in Shenandoah, Sunday morning, May 23, 1943. Mrs. Vinson had been in apparent good health until she became ill Saturday night. Dr. Louis Muzzieato was summoned and attended the woman but she failed to respond to medical treatment. Mrs. Vinson, who was born in Ludingtonville, July 18, 1878, had resided in Putnam County, the greater part of her life. She had made her home in Shenandoah the last seven years, during which time her husband has held the pastorate of the Bethel Baptist Church. Her early education was received in the Putnam County schools. The daughter of the late Ferris J. and Mary E. Townsend Sprague, Mrs. Vinson was married to Mr. Vinson, 45 years ago. Surviving, in addition to her husband, are a son, Richard F. Vinson, Newburgh; two daughters, Mrs. Mary A. Sprague, Patterson, and Mrs. Edna V. Baldwin, Stormville; two grandsons; a sister, Mrs. Ida Ferguson, Brewster; and several nieces and nephews. Funeral services were conducted at the Bethel Baptist Church at 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. The Rev. Merritt Miller, retired minister who is a member of the Shenandoah Church, officiated. He was assisted by the Rev. Eric D. Clark, minister of the Pawling Baptist Church and the Rev. David Martin, Towners. Mrs. Edward Roosa and Mrs. David Martin sang a duet and Mrs. Knapp a vocal solo at the services. Burial was made in the Maple avenue cemetery, Patterson. Bearers were Wright Jackson, D.R. Knapp, Smith Townsend, Roy Stevens, George Burton and Millard Knapp. CARMEL, PUTNAM COUNTY, N.Y., FRIDAY, MAY 28, 1943. [1]
