Today I stumbled on a series of newspaper articles concerning the shooting of Herbert Partridge of Brooklyn, New York today. I cannot identify this Herbert as yet, so provide this merely as fodder for your enjoyment.

The following is a transcription of a letter written by a Mrs. Lizzie A. Lane of Stockton Springs, Maine to Vera Partridge Hamilton. Lizzie was born 17 Nov 1871 to Matthew and Elizabeth Ann (Berry) Partridge.  She married as her second husband, Fred Amos Lane.
Apr. 21, 1935
Have been hoping to get and to look up more about [...]

The following information is correspondence (2 letters) between Herbert L. Partridge and Vera Hamilton Partridge. While the dates state the same, what I have is a typewritten copy, and the transcriber (Vera) obviously imput the wrong date in one of the letters. This is the basis of what I used to document much more in depth, the Woolwich, Maine Patridge Family.

These three letters written by temporary residents of Merrimac, Wisconsin, hailing from Templeton, Massachusetts, throwing intersting light on social and economic conditions in the Badger State in 1857-58. The letters were written to Unity Fales (Mrs. Otis) Partridge at Templeton by her sons James Otis and Maynard. James Otis Partridge, who was born at Templeton in 1828 and died at Partridgeville, a village in the town of Templeton, in 1873, was the father of the contributor.
