*Additional information :
 
PATTENGILL, Hiram - trouble with a brother and a threatened lawsuit so worked on his mind that in March 1846,
he cut his throat with a razor, thus being the first suicide on Elma soil. [Page 47]
 
SHANE, Peter - In June 1851, at the raising of a barn on lot 72 now owned by Max Hornung, the first bent was raised all right;
but it was left without any stays, to stand alone until the next bend and girts were in place, in order to fasten all together.
While all hands were raising the second bent, a light wind blew the first bent over against the second and as the men saw it coming
and realized their danger, a cry was raised to get out of the way, but the cry came to late.Three men were caught.
Peter Shane had his head cut off by being caught between the timbers; one other man, name not now known,
was so hurt that he died the next morning, and another not known, died three months later.
Too much whiskey was the real cause of the accident. [Page 111]
 
STANDART, John - who lived in a house an the south west corner of Lot 9,
on the north side of Cinton Street Road, on July 7th, 1874, shot his wife with a revolver
and then cut his throat with a razor. [Page 210 ]
 
STANDART, Smantha - daughter of Mr. Mrs. George Standart, died July 15th 1849/ The funeral sermon was preached by
Rev. George E.Havens, methodist preacher at Lancaster. This was the first death of a white person and the first sermon
preached on the Lancaster part of the reservation. [Page 108]
 
WILBOR, Cryenus, father of Mrs. J. B. Briggs, died September 12th, 1856.[Page 120]
