Mrs. Seeber was born in the town of Pamelia in 1873 daughter of Asa and Lydia White Ostrander. She spent her early life and was educated in the Brownville area. She was married to Albert Seeber about 65 years ago. The couple lived in Rochester for years when Mr Seeber was employed here. They returned to Brownville and Mr Seeber died there in 1939. Mrs Seeber had made her home her for some time since the death of her husband.

My notes to add to this…….Minnie died of a cerebral stroke. She had come to visit us at our home in Pittsford NY when she was stricken. She was hospitalized and then moved to my Uncle Earl's home where his wife Lillian ran a nursing home.

Minnie ran a boarding house in Rochester during my growing up years. I remember with a lot of fondness the time that I spent with my grandmother. She was a large woman with an outspoken manner. She had no trouble telling you what she thought whether you asked her or not.

She also was a very warm and loving woman. I loved going to her house and looked forward to the times my parents went away and left us with her. She was also a very good cook.

I remember her death and miss her still.

The above obit also says Albert died in 1939 and my records show he died in 1938.
