Descendants of Bobbi Longwell Suave'
He left the farm to John Longwell who married Mehetable (?).
The farm then passed down to William who married Elizabeth Sprague
and William's brother, Charles who married Elizabeth Paddock.
Charles bought out William's share of the farm when William moved to Steuben County, NY.
However, William's son, James W. stayed on the Vernon farm with his Uncle Charles.
He was just a young boy at the time!
James W. stayed on the farm until he was an adult
and then moved to Paterson, NJ.
