Notes:

South Bristol - Mrs. Samantha Burnham, aged 77 years, passed peacefully away on Monday, January 18, 1915, at the home of her son, Charles Lee. She had been a patient sufferer since last October, and all was done that loving hands could do, but to no avail. She leaves to mourn her loss one daughter, at Oak field; three sons, Charles Lee, of this place; William Lee, of Naples, and one whose whereabouts are not known. Burial will be made in Rose Ridge cemetery, Naples.
(The Naples Record, Wednesday, January 20, 1915)

Samantha A. McMichael (later Mrs. William C. Lee and Mrs. John R. Burnham) was known by both Samantha and Helen in her later years. Evidence suggests that relatives from her McMichael family continued to identify her as Samantha, while members of her local community in the Naples/Academy area commonly referred to her as Helen Burnham. Newspaper notices from 1902 demonstrate simultaneous use of both names, indicating that Helen was an alternate or familiar name.

Samantha married William Charles Lee in 1856 in Naples, Ontario County, New York. William (son of Charles W. Lee and Amanda Holcomb) was born in ca 1834 in New York; died in 1868 in Naples, Ontario County, New York; was buried in Rose Ridge Cemetery, Naples, Ontario County, New York.

He had thirteen children, several of whom came to this county. Artemas traded his farm in Bristol for one here, whither he removed in 1814. He served in the War of 1812, and fought in several of the battles on the Niagara frontier. He settled on the west side of Honeoye Lake, and owned land south of Main street in Honeoye. He and his son, Jedediah, each gave half the land for the original cemetery and he gave the land for the First Methodist church. He was one of the founders of the church here. The edifice stood on the site of Mrs. Phillips's house on Lake street. His children were: John G., born in 1811; Jedediah, born in 1815; Fanny, born in 1818; Cyrus, born in 1820, and Mary, born in 1823. Cyrus was educated at East Bloomfield Academy, and was a farmer. He married first Emeline McMichael, daughter of Thomas McMichael, a tanner here, and they had two sons: Zachary J., born in 1849, and John C. He married second Cynthia E. Hadley, by whom he had no children. He died in 1888. John C. married in 1878 Minnie A., daughter of John Van Buren. She was born November 8, 1857. They have had two children; Fred J., born in 1885, died in 1889, and Hattie F., born May 26 1889.

During the War of 1812 he was captured by the English and taken to England, returning after the war. Enoch, the oldest brother, born in 1770, came after Artemas, and settled in Bristol, where his descendants may be found at the present time. The ancestry of the family dates back to Sir Robert Briggs of England, who lived about thirteen generations back.

Sheldon, as he was known, was born in 1907 at the 1811 Fisher homestead in Fishers, the town named for the pioneer family.

In 1939 he met and married Lillian Lewis who was from a Virginia family transplanted to Missouri.

Like Sheldon, she was a history buff, enough so that they spent their 1939 honeymoon poking around New England graveyards and searching out family records.

In 1940 they purchased Valentown Hall at Victor, NY, which had been envisioned decades before as a major commercial complex of shops when a projected railroad was to bring the world to its porches. When the railroad project stalled, the building accommodated more localized uses, then went into decline. Now the young couple made it the center of their professional and family lives.

In 1944 the Fishers Family Collection was tranferred to Valentown and two years later the rudiments of the Valentown Museum were established, beginning to make room for the historical collection that was the fruit of the family's constant alertness to artifacts and documents that were often in peril. School children and others began to visit on guided tours and the Valentown historical mission became known more widely, gradually leading to important historical items being brought to their attention.

Along the way they were instrumental in founding the Victor Historical Society and the Perinton Historical Society, as well as several others in the area. Sheldon was active in Victor town affairs during the 1960s and was the first Ontario County Historian, 1960 - 66. In 1964 the important Seneca village site on Boughton Hill in Victor was designated as a National Historic Landmark by the U.S. Department of Interior, the first fruit of a campaign for its preservation and development begun by the Fishers in 1946.

The grateful Seneca Nation adopted Sheldon into the Heron Clan in August 1964, and the State of New York began purchases that led to the important historical site now at Ganondagan. Its public opening took place three centuries after the original site's destruction by the Marquis de Denonville.

Notes:

The Flower Fadeth - So faded and perished by the dread disease, pneumonia, Fannie, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Z. Briggs, on Thursday, March 29th, aged twelve and one half years. Seldom have the hearts of the people gone out in deeper sympathy than to this afflicted family, who are now bereft of their only and well-be-loved daughter. Not alone will her place in the union and Sunday school be vacant, but all will miss the bright face and sunny smile of Fannie Briggs. Clothed in white and lying in a casket of purest white, amid flowers (fit emblems of immortality), Fannie was laid to rest in the cemetery at Lake View. Her funeral heald at the Congregational Church on Saturday, was attended by a large concourse of people.
(Livonia Gazette, April 6, 1888)

"Come not again, dear child. If thou - By and chance couldst break that vow - Of silence at thy last hour made; - If to this grim life unafraid - Thou couldst return, and melt the frost - Wherein thy bright limo's power was lost, - Still would I whisper since so fair - This silent comradeship we share - Yes, whisper ' mid the unbidden rain - Of tears: 'Come not, come not again!'"

Died:
Died of Acute Typhoid Pneumonia after 10 days.
