Anna Louise White Teeter, my grandmother (1899 NY - 1976 NY) wife of William Hymes Teeter (1883 NY - 1965 NY)

This file has corrections and input pertinent to TEETER KIN and various families, along with my notes and additions.

Per input of MICHAEL TUNISON: George Teeter md Caroline Grover. Their daughter, Mary Ann Teeter, is my ancestor, and she married William M Hymes on 29 Oct 1873. He is buried in Sebring Settlement Cemetery in Newfield NY, but I have yet to locate his grave for it seems no stone remains. Mary Ann was was only 32 when she died on 03 Oct 1881, and I don't know where she is buried. William and Mary (Teeter) Hymes' son was Edgar Jahiel Hymes, who married Lela Church Snyder. They lived in Newfield NY. Edgar and Lela's daughter was my grandmother, Gyda Mary Hymes, who married Frank Abram Tunison. They lived in Trumansburg NY. Frank and Gyda's eldest son was Lewis Edgar Tunison, my father, who married Jean Shirley Wiggins. All of them lived in Trumansburg. My sister, Susan Jean Tunison, and I were raised in Trumansburg. I am a member of Sons of the American Revolution (male version of DAR). I found your "correction" showing Christopher Keller as father of Christina Keller who married Conrad Teeter. I agree. Christopher Keller did serve the American Cause during the Revolution. The father of William M. Hymes was Edgar W. Hymes, b 28 Aug 1823. I haven't been able to discover anything about his parents, but suspect it was either Jacob Hymes of Ontario Co NY, or more likely William Hymes of Cayuga Co NY. I found them in the 1810 census. There was a George Hymes in Tompkins Co. in the 1820 census. REPLY: Thank you MICHAEL TUNISON for your valued input! MY NOTES: Per 1865 1865 Newfield NY, I find this: Mary J. Hymes, 38, Delphine R 16, and William M 13. For 1880, I find: Hymes, William 27 and wife, Mary A 31 b abt 1849, Edgar 5, and Cornelius 1.

Lewis E �Buster� Tunison, age 82, of Trumansburg NY, was surrounded by his family as he passed away Saturday evening, July 9, 2005, at the Cayuga Medical Center. Lewis had fought a courageous battle against cancer for ten years. Born in Hector, NY on June 14, 1923, Lewis was the son of Frank A and Gyda M (Hymes) Tunison. He graduated from the Trumansburg High School in 1940 and entered the U.S. Army in 1943. Initially assigned to the Army Air Corps, Lewis was later reassigned to the Army Signal Corps. He served overseas in the European Theater with the 3163rd Signal Service Company whose mission was to set-up and maintain a radio relay network across France and Germany to support the advance of the U.S. Army. He received an Honorable Discharge in 1946. Lewis was employed by GE for almost 10 years before accepting a position at Cornell University. He enjoyed working as a technician in the Wilson Lab Synchrotron at Cornell for 20 years, retiring in June of 1985. He was also a member of the Trumansburg United Methodist Church. In addition to his parents, Lewis was preceded in death by a brother, Franklin H. Tunison. He is survived by his wife, of 61 years, Jean (Wiggins) Tunison; one son, Michael L Tunison of Conesus; one daughter, Susan J (Charles) Ingalls of Dryden; five grandchildren, Nickolas J Bucci of Cortland, Michael A Tunison of Holley, Matthew D Tunison of Rochester, Jennifer M Tunison of Rochester, and Kyle V Tunison of Rochester and four great-grandchildren. Graveside services at the Grove Cemetery in Trumansburg were kept private per Lewis's wishes.

Arrangements, the Ness-Sibley Funeral Home, Trumansburg NY.
