The closest Trindles I have found are the ones living in Ord (about 7-8 miles from Olean) in Valley County in the 1910, 1920, and 1930 censuses. Thomas and Lova Trindle appear in the census as white, however. In 1900 Thomas and his first wife, Alice, are in Yale, about 25 miles from Olean.
ReplyDeleteThanks Janice. I've looked at that newspaper article many times wondering if it might be a T not an I or any other letter for that matter. It could be a T. Thomas' middle initial is M as evidenced in many records. (pretty close to N?) However, the 25 mile distance in 1900 is a bit of a question.
