Daughter of Silas and Delilah Shay - Bessie L. Shay married William Manley - they had 2 children: Dan Manley (7 Jul 1903 - Dec 1955 or 1930?) and Roena Manley (1906). Roena married Charles Sylvester Davie (1898) - they had 2 children Barbara 1928 and J. David 1930 Maybe if we trace these 2 people down - we might find some photos or something.
*********************************************
I looked into Bessie's line and Bessie was divorced from William Manley by 1930. As far as I could find Don Manley is buried in Sweden Hill Cemetery near his mother and grandparents. I would guess that there are still descendants in Potter County of Bessie Shay Manley.
On a side note: My great-grandfather George Heath use to tell my Uncle Justin that the Heath side was connected/related to the Knickerbocker Family in Potter County. I have found no evidence as of yet on how we are connected. Neither George or Emaline's side seems to have ties to the family. Just thought you might find that interesting. I wonder where that missing link is.

At one point when I was looking at Roena - I believe the daughter was still alive and may be living in FL.
