5Letter from Rosalie Cory (Willard's daughter) November, 2001;
My father's name was Willard Washington Graves. Robet E. Graves that is buried with Sheldon H. Graves is the youngest of 10 children. He was 3 years old when he died. Between Clara and Willard, there were four girls who died within two weeks from Diphtheria. That information was from Aunt Ella.

6Parents of Sheldon Graves found from the research of Concetta Franco in 2003. They were found living in Blenheim Township, Oxford County, Ontario in 1861. Sheldon was 3 years old. (age fits perfect) All family bible records note that Sheldon was born in "Blemen" Ontario... I believe this is Blenheim misspelled.
