  • Notes 
    • According to great granddaughter of Reuben Orlando (William O.) Bisbee, he left home at the age of 16 (1885), and possibly changed his name at that time to William O. Bisbe. William died of heart failure at age 40. He was superintendent of the Stoney Brook Paper Company in South Hadley, Mass. He learned the paper making trade from his step-father, Matthew Atwater. [6]
