LETTER FROM JUDY FRITZ - 14 JUL 1987
Judy Fritz writes that her grandmother (Elizabeth Como Proctor) told her a
story about her grandparents. Her grandmother, whom she thinks was originally
a LaPoint, married Nelson Como. The LaPoint family was from Boston and
considered Nelson to be quite beneath her, and disinherited her. She said
the young bride developed arthritis very early in life and was cared for very
lovingly by her husband Nelson for several years before she died. Her
gradmother also said the the Como family was related to the aide-de-camp to
Napolean and to Ethan Allen of the Green Mountain Boys.

OTHER INFORMATION
The death record of Nelson Como notes that his father was named John Como,
born in France, and his mother was named Margaret, born in Canada.
Original name was Narcisse Comeau but was changed to Nelson when he arrived in
the states.

Nelson's last name likely Comeau but dit names also include Chaillon, Cormier, Comire, Quemere, Comeault, and Chailloux.

Found at Ancestry.com (prob. placed by Spooners:) "Nelson, son of John Comeau who was born abt. 1772 in France and was a cabinetmaker; and Margaret Como. Nelson Como (originally spelled Comeau) was married twice. Marinda Turretta was his second wife. The first was either Renee Terle or Maria Holmes. There is an unresolved discrepency on this matter."

Note: OBITUARY
Advance News / Ogdensburg, N.Y. / 15 Dec 1991

She was predeceased by two sons, John Francis and Richard; three daughters, Elizabeth Rivenbark, Doris Como, and Gladys Como; a sister, Melvina Wicks; and two brothers, George and Alexander Recore.

She is survived by three sons, Earl (Ogdensburg), Robert William (Rome), and Howard Edward (Utica). ; three daughters; Mrs. William (Bernice) Redmond, Canastota; Dorothy Godkin, South Carolina, and Mrs. Wesley (Margaret) Pitcher, Potsdam; 38 grandchildren; several nieces and nephews.


Following from the Commercial Advertiser, Canton, NY
Tue., Feb. 14, 1933
A jury was partially drawn in the case of Elizabeth Como as Admx. v. Earl Fleming, an action to recover for the death of a young boy who was hit by the car of defendant while sliding in the city of Ogdensburg and who received injuries form which he soon died. This accident occurred Jan. 3, 1932. In examining the jury, John H. Livingston, attorney for the plaintiff, asked the jury if the fact that the defendant was running a load of booze at the time of the accident would prejudice them. Edmund Fitzgerald for the defendant, was at once on his feet with a motion to withdraw a juror and put the case over on the ground that the question tended to prejudice the case of the defendant, and after some consideration, the motion was granted.

June 20, 1933
Wednesday morning saw the reconvening of County Court, and Thursday afternoon the close of the term. The action of Elizabeth Como as Administratrix of Richard Como, a thirteen year old boy, against Earl Fleming, was tried. The parties come from Ogdensburg.
On the evening of January 3, 1932, Richard Como, his brother and another boy were sliding down Ford Avenue and across Main Street, a much travelled street. His brother went first and crossed Main Street in safety; Richard came next, lying flat on his stomach, and was killed instantly; the third boy saw the car, turned his sled into a snow bank and escaped injury.
Strange to say no one saw the collision between the sled and car; no one can say whether the sled was in motion or had come to a stop; this is very mportant because under the decisions apparently if the sled were in motion no recovery could be had, while if it had come to a stop perhaps one could be sustained. The boy had no light on his sled and Main Street was not a street on which children were permitted to slide under the terms of any ordinance of the city. One witness testified that the car of the defendant was going between forty and fifty miles an hour just prior to the accident; the defendant, told the boy's mother that he did not see the boy or know he had struck him, and that was the reason he did not sooner report the accident; the Chief of Police said he reported it about three hours after it occurred and said that the reason he did not do so sooner was that he had been in a previous accident and feared if this one were reported it might cost him his license.
At the close of the plaintiff's case the defense moved for a non-suit, and this being denied went to the jury on the evidence offered by plaintiff and urged that the evidence showed that the boy was undeniably guilty of contributory negligence. The jury struggled with the case several hours, failed to agree and were discharged at six Wednesday night. John J. Livingston represented the plaintiff, Edmund Fitzgerald the defendant.

12/20/1939: The fire department cas called To the home of Mrs. Earl Como, 26 Commerce St., at 7:50 last evening where a chimney was burning out. An alarm was sounded from Box 14, New York avenue and Main street. The damage was slight.

David is 2 months old.

LDS SOCIAL SECURITY DEATH INDEX
There is a leona Davidson who was born 15 Dec 1892 and who died September in
Buffalo, New York. I don't know if this is the same person as our Leona Como,
but there was no other Leona or Pearl Como or Davidson who had a birth date
around this time in the LDS Social Security Death Index.

COMMENTS
At some time I was told that Leona wa married to a man named Porter and that
he died in a farm accident. If so, then Leona must have been married to him
in 1909 at the age of 15. In the next year he died, her baby was born and she
went back to live with her father in Ogdensburg.

Reference is made that Eathan was born 2 Sep 1844 (or perhaps 1845) and that
his mother died when he was 4 years old and the family was scattered.

OTHER INFORMATION:
The 1850 census for Watertown, N.Y. shows Nelson Como being a widower in 1850
living in a hotel in Watertown. He had three children who had all been placed
with other families in the Watertown area. I could find no other information
about Maria Holmes.

A general affadavit in Eathen Como's military file states that Marinda
Holmes, his mother, died when he was four, which would place her death around
1847 or 1848.

COPY OF DEATH CERTIFICATE New YORK STATE BUREAU OF VITAL STATISTICS
Ethan Allen Como, of 3 Elizabeth St. in Ogdensburg, N.Y. died on 15 Aug 1910.
His age was 66 years, 11 months, 13 days. He was married at the time. His
father was Nelson Como (born in Canada) and his mother was Maria Holmes (born
in New York state). Cause of death was Bright's disease.

Ogd. Advance of Aug. 18, 1910, states Eathen A. Como died at the family home on Elizabeth Street Monday night after a long illness, aged 65 (which would put birth year at 1845). Deceased was engaged in the painting business and was widely known. He was a civil war veteran, having served in the 142nd Regt. NY Vol. and was a member of Ransom Post, GAR, the Free Masons, and Odd Fellows. He was a consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal Church and a man of fine character. His wife and daughter, Miss Stella Como, survive, also a brother, Nelson Como of this city."

OTHER INFORMATION
There is some evidence that Eathen lied to get into the Army during the Civil
War. Jimmie Hoadley told us that story.
His only child had only one child which died before having children, so there
are no living descendents of Eathen Como.
