3. Letter, dated 19 Jun 1858, from Keziah (GREENLAND) SHANAFELT (click her link for a full transcription) of Clarion Co., PA, to her son, Thomas. Keziah is a granddaughter of Benjamin & Sarah (SIAS) CORBIN. The letter is in the possession of Laurel Shanafelt Powell of Colorado, and Lorinda Clendenon Greenland generously posted a transcription at her web site.

My mother's father was Benjamin Corbin... He had a sister, lived in Ohio. Her family was said to be very wealthy. I think her name was Marsh...

Transcriber's note: Sophia (CORBIN) MARSH is, indeed, sister of Benjamin.
