Alden Dunton

from Bonnie Dunton Collins (bonbud@mainewest.com)
Alden Dunton was my great-grandfather. My grandfather, Clyde Dunton, was Abbie's step-brother. Clyde was born from Alden's marriage to Lena Works, but I'm real fuzzy on the details of his marriage to Abbie's mother. I do remember my Grandfather speaking of Abby and of her sons(?) Earl and Wallace Thomas (?) I seem to remember them coming to my grandfathers funeral also. Didn't they live in the Rumford, Maine area? I will get you some more information on Alden when I get home ( I'm at work now).....he is buried in Mercer. He was a store owner and postmaster there. I don't remember ever coming across anything that said he was a civil war vet.....but he very well could have been. I think there was quite an age difference between Abbie and Clyde (18 yrs or so), and I think Alden married Lena Works later in life.....my Grandfather Clyde was born 7/22/1892. Nice to meet ya, Karen!!!
