Flint Journal 12 Sep 1932
Mrs. Alice F Phelps, 82 years old, resident of Flint and vicinity all her life, died yesterday at the home of a daughter, Mrs. Edith Pangborn of Swartz Creek, after an illness of four months. Born May 23, 1850 at Otisville, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jeremia Thompson, she married Jerome Phelps Sept. 26, 1886 (typo, should be 1868) at Atlas. She was a member of the Atlas Baptist Church. Surviving are two daughters, Mrs. Pangborn of Swartz Creek and Mrs. Maud Riegle of Flint; a sister Mrs. Gertrude Russell of New York state; five grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren.

1910 Census says 3 children/2 living. It would appear should be 4 children/3 living. Unless Reuben A had died by that time, then would be 4/2? Alice obit shows 2 children surviving. We have arthur obit 1904. What about Reuben A???--Answer to this is that Reuben A is actually son of Leander whose wife died!! so 3/2 is corect.
