Florence Elizabeth More Nichols



Born 4 August 1917 at Afton, Chenango County, New York
Died 12 November 2010 at Delhi, Delaware County, New York

Florence was the third of nine children born to Irvin More and Hazel Orpha Combs More. She was raised at Afton where her father was the owner and operator of a dairy farm. Florence married to William Harland Nichols on 23 November 1945 at Afton. They made their home at Walton, New York where her husband was a carpenter and where Florence was a painter for many  years at Del-Met Corporation. Knitting was a favorite pastime and she was well known for her chocolate chip cookies. Florence and William were the parents of four children; all daughters. Florence died at Countryside Care Center at Delhi after a long illness. She was buried in a Nichols family plot at Walton Cemetery. Florence was my third cousin twice removed.
