This is in response to Barbara Prestridge's 10-18-05 post regarding Benjamin Franklin Halderman from Russelville, Arizona born 1851 died 1913.

My husband is a great grandson of this B.F. Halderman. B.F. Halderman married Emma in Pennsylvania and had three sons in Pennsylvania - B.F., Jr., Edmund, and Charles. They moved to Russelville, Arizona around 1881. Ada was born in 1887 in Arizona. B.F., Sr. died in 1913. In 1919, Emma married Rufus McKinney (Ada's father-in-law). Emma died in 1937 and is buried in Douglas, Arizona.

I think the Servoss names you cite might be the children of B.F., Jr. The school dates are around 1912, which would make those three (Arthur, Helen and Cecilia) too young to be children of B.F., Sr. who was 61 in 1912.
