Frank Hotchkiss Family

Frank S. Hotchkiss, the son of George Hotchkiss and Mary Elizabeth Hescock, was born in March 1882 probably in Alabama Twp., Genesee Co., New York. He married about 1904 to Bertha M. Flannigan, daughter of Emma C. Flannigan, who was born about 1882 in New York. At the 1910 U.S. Census, Bertha is listed as having two children, both no longer living. The family moved to Buffalo, Erie Co., New York in 1915. Frank worked as a clerk and bookkeeper. They had the following children that we have been able to identify so far:

1. Lydia Hotchkiss, b. abt. 1905 in New York. In 1909, Lydia contracted scarlet fever and was taken to the hospital in Buffalo, Erie Co., N.Y. She d. bef. 1910.

2. unknown child Hotchkiss, b. abt. 1907 in New York.

3. George Sterling Hotchkiss, b. abt. 1911 probably in Oakfield, Genesee Co., New York. He was baptized in December 1911.

4. Harold Emery Hotchkiss, b. 1 January 1915 in Oakfield, Genesee Co., N.Y.

I cannot find this family in the 1920 or 1930 US censuses. I would appreciate any information, photos, or details on the family.
