- (Research):From William G. Sprague, correspondent, note of October 22,2018
To verify the correct DOD, I went to a large Family GraveMarker that was erected at the Boniface Farm onBloomingburg Road in the Town of Mamakating, SullivanCounty, NY. It lists most of the currently dead familymembers of Alfred Jr. and Wife who had their ashesscattered on the farm. The remaining deceased children ofAlfred Jr. and Edyth are also listed on the stone. Some ofthem are buried at other locations and others have hadtheir aches scattered on the farm. So based on the obituarydate and the date on the grave marker, it is going to be aDOB of March 8, 1886 and a DOD as Feb. 13, 1978 for AlfredJ. Boniface Jr..
From William G. Sprague, correspondent, note of February19, 2019
The common family marker on the Boniface farm which listsboth Alfred Boniface Jr. and wife Edyth Howlings list verydifferent dates on several of their dates of birth anddeath than what appear in their obits. I must have sent youone of them by mistake. The dates below are both taken fromobituaries taken from a local newspaper stating their datesof births and deaths. I am going to go by the newspaperobits as the dates of the newspaper obits all correspondwith the published dates. I think several dates on thestone are not correct as the stone was erected on the farmabout 50 years after they died and I think the family gotsome of them wrong. Anyway, please go with these dates. Bill
