      OBITUARY
      George W. Walton
      George Washington Walton, son of George and Louisa Walton, was born in Keene, Essex county, N.Y. on October 27, 1861, and spent the greater part of his life in the Adirondacks. On September 30, 1874 he was married to Susan Ellis McClelland of Saranac Lake. For several years his chief occupation was that of a contractor and builder. Numerous summer hotels and other public buildings remain as lasting tribute to his skill, among them the Blue Mountain Lake House and the Keene Center public library. His many friends in the Ausable Valley will best remember him in the years when he maintained a wheelwright shop in Keene Center and took a leading part in the affairs of the town, holding such offices as justice, notary and school director. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1916 he sold his eastern property and joined his wife and five of his children in Oregon, where he purchased a home. After the death of his wife in 1924, he made his home with his daughter, Mrs. R.D. Barton of Salem, Oregon, until his death on August 30, 1928. On September 3, he was laid to rest beside his life-long companion in Jason Lee Mission cemetery at Salem, Oregon. His only brother, Christopher M. Walton, died at Rochester, N.Y., in April of the present year. He is survived by the following children: Mrs. George W. Quick, 17th and Eye Streets, N.W., Washington D.C.; H.H. Walton, 245 Colonie Street, Albany, N.Y.; Lulu R. Walton, Sequoia Hotel, San Francisco, California; Dr. R.W. Walton, 48 N. Fullerton Avenue, Montclair, N.J.; Paul H. Walton, 232 Arlington Avenue, Syracuse, N.Y.; Mrs. R.D. Barton, 1105 Leslie Street, Salem, Oregon; F.W. Walton, 235 South C Street, Exeter, California; Mrs. J.E. Sturgeon, 734 South Tenth Street, Corvallis, Oregon.

    • GEORGE WALTON ?-? FAMILY REUNION
      Nearly a half century ago the George Walton family who lived in Keene for. many years sold their property and went to the West Coast, taking the younger children with theirs who afterwards married and made their homes in the West. Last Tuesday the following arrived at Mr. and Mrs. Timothy Sullivan's for a reunion and to call on old friends which they had wished to do for so long: Harold Walton from Monroe, N. Y.; Mrs. George Quick (Lulu) from Rotterdam Junction, N. Y.; Dr. Ralph Walton from Mont Clair, N.J.; Paul Walton from Syracuse, N.Y.; Mrs. Lorena Sturgeon from Corvallius, Oregon, and Fremont Walton from Exeter, Calif. To Fremont and Lorena, who hadn't been here for so many years the old Keene was gone and a new one in its place with
      many strange faces, new homes and scenic wonders. The old friends were so glad to have the privilege of visiting
      with them again and hoping there will not be the span of years before they come to Keene again.
