All I know was what my mother told me of William Latta's mother. She was married the second time to William Latta, and I think two children by that marriage, One boy and one girl. William Latta had a half sister living at Mt. Sterling, Ohio, By the name of Robinson. I think that Mr. Latta's father came from Roxabel, Ross Co., Ohio. I (Robert H Latta) wrote to Mrs. Robinson, but she was not at Mt. Sterling. If his father lived at Roxabel, Ohio, I think he belonged to BRANCH No. 10.
